You think it’s hard writing valid XHTML markup? Try coding PHP pages which will produce valid XHTML markup when parsed. Argh.
So that’s what “anarthrous” means.
Reformed Baptist scoffed at?
Why do conservative Reformed Christians view the concept of a “Reformed Baptist” with scorn? Is there some quintessence of being Reformed which the Baptist denomination is missing? I’m sincerely curious: what is it about Baptists that makes an oxymoron out of “Reformed Baptist?”
Magnifying Lens Effect
Instructions for a Magnifying Lens Effect in Flash. Too cool. Will try it now.
Plane crash in Milan
A Piper tourist plane has undergone uncontrolled contact with the Pirelli Bulding in Milan. Accident or terrorist attack? I’m leaning more towards “accident” right now, seeing as how the pilot radioed in about technical problems before crashing.
General Mustard
We were about to order lunch from WrapWorks at Dupont Circle, but there was no menu available on the web. Fortunately, a search for “wrapworks blogger” turned up an archived “Mmmm” from Dave of Vicious Thinks. Today I shall eat General Mustard, thanks in part to the wide, wild world of personal weblog content.
Draggable Flash masks
I’ve been working at it all morning and I’m still trying to figure out these draggable masks for a magnification effect.
Mozilla and Baptism Cult
Currently typing this entry with Mozilla 0.9.9. Hmmm. It’s not wrapping the textarea field. How annoying.
And I have also been email and guestbook-spammed by New Life Mission, and if I’m reading their “born of water and the spirit” blurbs correctly, they seem to believe in the heresy that baptism is a necessary step in the process of salvation.
Thank God we know better. True salvation is from Christ alone, and not by immersion in water.
PHP Snippets
Mmmm, Code Snippets.
Virtual Nose Hair Plucking
Virtual Nose Hair Plucking makes me want to cry. (Check out the rest of the site too. Lots of quirky and weird interactivity. High-bandwidth.)
PhotoPlus 5 problem
I was about to recommend Serif’s Photoplus 5 as an excellent freeware digital imaging program, quite similar to PaintShop; but we just found that it’s rather resources-intensive. The Photoplus application shows almost 100% CPU Usage — even after closing.
Perhaps one could try downloading Adobe’s free Photoshop 6 tryout. Though the product description says one may not save or export from the tryout version, it says nothing about composing in Photoshop and doing a flattened screen capture to open in another graphics app… ;)
