Though rebelious as they can be, The Pirate Bay has once again brought the spirit of the French revolution to life. A dangerous move indeed. But I can only say, when greed and law are mixed in one, balance will always find its place in the end. Just what is the credit that one is deserving of? Is it recognition? money? The cunning ones have so cleverly clouded proper judgment that not just their adversaries, but their very own children, are lost.
Since authimage is giving me so much trouble (>2 hours): not showing image, ever since the reload of the server, I have decided to go with reCaptcha. I don't generally prefer services that need a live connection/account creation to different hosts, but after seeing the features and how easy the installation, I'm sticking with this one.
Now, those spammers from China (or using proxies from China) will have an even harder time trying to comment spams on my website.
Suddenly received a txt from a client telling me to finish a April 1st project by this weekend so there can be some testing in March 24th.
To quote a line from a show: "Hey man, I know guys on crack that make more sense than you!"
Good thing I straigthened things out with patience.
Now the project is heavy. Will need some serious time in.
With the upgraded server, I can now stream webcam images live.

Unfortunately, there's some obvious bug issue. I'm hoping to solve it with the developer (webcam: Gerd Knorr) if he ever replies, since no one else on the web seems to know the solution.
After watching Jason Kendall piloted the galaxy with Hayden Planetarium's FREE software, the Digital Universe Atlas, I am inclined to install that software again, now that I am sure it works (I gave up before because I supposed that the whole thing was just too technical for me). And apparently, many folks at the conference were surprised how well this program actually works, while they themselves also had problems similar to mine.
This is a rather unique software compared to any other (not to mention "FREE") stellar atlas. Because this is done in absolutely 3D with real data. In most constellation programs, certain details such as stellar distance is presented numerically instead of graphically.
The only major requirement is a good graphic card, or else, everything will run slow, especially when more datas are involved.
A good point to pounder upon:
"The woman was very smart, she was
able to have many husbands before. Now she was with the sixth one who
was not her husband. Jesus did not say, “Call all your husbands.” But
just say ‘call your husband’ and let her figure out which one. She
replied, “I have no husband.”
Many people deceive the servants
of God this way. Before God’s servant say they have no husband but they
have a lot of affairs at the back. We often present half-truth, that
is, just the good part of ourselves. And many preachers simply
compromise. They do not care about congregation’s personal lives and
morality as long as they still come to church."

Using WirelessKeyView, one can view all forgotten wifi password saved (saved as ***) on one's computer.
An interesting note is that the hex value recovered by the software can actually be used directly as the password key as well.
Game. So the game has a name: where teams competing by passing a message verbally from one teammate to another until the last teammate and see if the last member can recite the same message in accuracy.
I have made mention of this game several times to illustrate how sacred text are carefully passed and how people tend to be misled, whether it be intentional or unintentional.
As I brought up in a lesson on Islam on last Sunday's youth group, I was told by one student that it's called telephone (more commonly known in the U.S.), which is another name of the game this Chinese Whispers.
2 Dreams:
1. First time Faith
I seemed to be back at school, venue was Chung Ling or at least the classroom looked like it. I was at the front corner on teacher's right. As to what level of grade (high school, graduate, undergraduate, special?) I do not know or remember. One course seemed to require some sort of test where students were put to physical tests as if sparring each other. Some instructor kept saying if you don't hurt him he will hurt you and if you refuse to participate or win the game, something bad will happen: they will come after your family, etc. I said let it be, God is with me. I think this is the first situation in a dream where I based some dependence on God's protection, and not some moral standard.
Then there was another course, somewhat in the engineering management field. Don't remember the name of course. Teacher: female. Seemed to work for some supposedly great engineering company but has left there somehow. She showed photographs of that place, engineering staff structures seemed to be displayed on engines and pipes for public viewing. I think we also made a tour there. Which brings to the second dream.
2. Turns out one of the "researchers?" Lee Chung Liang was the CEO of that company. He didn't seem to recognize me. I somehow had a one on one chat with him after the tour. There were beds and rooms everywhere as if the researchers just sleep and live around their "offices". This company seemed to be functioning as some sort of mini Disney World on the outside (on my way out in early morning I came across visitors coming in, I think one couple(my right) was the elder Michael Chen from my church wearing a cap trying to take photos with another couple(my left), I quickly walked passed them in between. They didn't seem to recognize me as I was also wearing a cap). Chung Liang told me as he was lying on his couch or bed that his father was kind of a CEO or founder of the company, but he's either leaving or taking a different route with the company's direction as he has "a different plan of his own".
2 or 3 trains at Wall Street Station, big mall-type lobby, good resting place, apparent chess playing gather place, at least 4 sets of people playing chess. Some kind of chess mall.
