Went back to school to take photos with some of my friends. More coming soon. A few more are in now.

MozBackup - Backup tool for Firefox and Thunderbird

Recently my FireFox has been refusing to let me login to ANY google related site, forcing me to revert to IE7 for the time being. And since the portable version still works in school, I think I will need to reinstall FireFox along with everything else... =

Found this tool at http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ whilst trying to find a way to port my firefox profile with all the customisations, bookmarks, passwords and whatnot. I hope this one works.

The website says:

MozBackup is a simple utility for creating backups of Mozilla
Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, Mozilla Suite and Netscape profiles.

Sounds promising!

The Servant King

From heaven you came, helpless babe
Entered our world, your glory veiled
Not to be served but to serve
And give your life that we might live

This is our God, the servant king
He calls us now to follow him
To bring our lives as a daily offering
of worship to the servant King

Come see his hands and his feet
the scars that speak of sacrifice
hands that flung stars into space
to cruel nails surrendered

So let us learn how to serve
and in our lives enthrone him
Each others needs to prefer
for it is Christ we're serving

Flies

It's only in NTU where you see things like 4 flies getting trapped in a bowl of miso soup in a time span of less than 5 minutes.

I like my university ;P

C# .NET Barrel Shifters

In case anyone needs the code for it ;P

private byte LeftBarrelShift(byte b, uint amount)
{
amount %= 8;
byte temp;
for (uint i = 0; i < amount; i++)
{
temp = (byte)(b >> 7);
b <<= 1;
b += temp;
}
return b;
}

private byte RightBarrelShift(byte b, uint amount)
{
amount %= 8;
byte temp;
for (uint i = 0; i < amount; i++)
{
temp = (byte)(b % 2);
b >>= 1;
temp <<= 7;
b += temp;
}
return b;
}

This ad caught my eye a few days back....



...reason being it summarizes how we used to be like before the truth came to us.



(Well, at least they're honest about it ;P)
