Solution to Blogspot / Blogger Error bX-928o1o
Getting error on changing of Blogger/Blogspot template - bX-928o1o ?
Here's the solution:
For myself, i deleted all the left-hand side widgets/gadgets, and proceed to steps #4, I managed to have my new template!!
Here's the Step by step solution that i got it from a forum.
1. Make sure you have some sidebar elements before trying to upload the new template (this is so that you get the 'Widgets are about to be deleted warning')
2. You should now have your new template code in place (awaiting widget deletion confirmation)
3 Press cntl+f (find function) and search for 'widget' (without inverted commas)
4 Change the number 1 in the following: b:widget id="Blog1",
b:widget id="BlogArchive1" and b:widget id="Profile1" to 2.
5. Confirm and save
Hope this will be helpful to you, have a nice day :)

Prosumer Camera Fight: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 vs Canon PowerShot SX10 IS
I am looking for a good prosumer-camera, after doing many research on the internet, the final options remains 2 cameras,
1) Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28
2) Canon PowerShot SX10 IS
It was really hard to make a decision between these 2 models, reason being both are the best of the best among their ranking products. Canon powershot sx10 is a bit of pricey, but i really likes the "Rotatable/Flippable" LCD. I am short, the LCD will help me to capture nice picture during a concert and many situations.
In compare, Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28, is cheaper, provide good Image quality even in ISO400. HD TV video format really impressive.
Listed down some my of recent research on both Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28, Canon PowerShot SX10 IS.
If you are looking for a prosumer camera like me, these information might be useful to you :)
Pls scroll down, I have no idea why this blogspot display my table so far away...

和另一女人約會! Date with second women!
和另一女人約會？
<<转载文章>>
結婚了廿一年後，我發現了一種別出心裁的方法,可以讓愛的火花永保新鮮。
不久以前 ，我和另一位女士約會，其實那還是我妻子的主意，
有一天她說：「我知道妳很愛她。」我很驚訝，立刻爭辯說：
「但我愛的是妳呀！」「我知道，但你也愛她呀！」
我妻子要我去看的女士是我的母親。
她已經寡居了十九年，然而我忙碌的工作和身為二個孩子父親的責任，令我分身乏術，以致很少有時間和她相聚。
那晚，我打電話給她，邀約她第二天和我一起吃晚餐和看電影。
「怎麼了，你還好嗎？」她問道。
母親是那種會認為晚上那麼晚打電話，又突然邀約她，一定不會有什麼好事的人。
「我想如果有機會和妳單獨約會，一定很有意思。」我回答。
她想了一會兒，然後說：「我非常樂意。」
那個星期五下班以後，我開車去接她時，心裡有一點緊張,
因為從未嚐試過這樣的約會。
當我到達她家時，我看她對這樣的約會，似乎也有一點緊張。
她在門內等著，身上穿著大衣，裡面那件禮服
還是最後一次慶祝結婚紀念日所穿的呢！
她的頭髮還特意捲了一下，臉上的微笑像天使一般。
上了車後，她得意洋洋地說：「我告訴我的朋友，我要和我的兒子外出約會，他們都好羨慕，迫不及待要聽聽我們約會的情形。」
我們去一家雖不豪華，但十分雅致，溫暖舒適的餐廳。
我母親挽住我的臂彎，好像第一夫人一般。
入座以後，我必須幫她看菜單點菜，
因為她的眼睛現在只有大的字才看得見。
用餐一半時，我抬起頭來，看到母親正在凝視我，
嘴角帶著懷舊的笑容說：「記得當你小時候，總是我為你看菜單的。」「那現在妳正好可以休息，輪到我來為妳服務了。」我回答。
一面享用晚餐，我們一面聊天，聊得很愉快，
談了許多最近幾年來，各自生命中的一些事。
我們聊得太久了，所以趕不上電影。當我送她回到家門口，
她說「我要再和你一起外出，但下次讓我作東好嗎？」我答應了。
回家後，妻子問我：「你的晚餐約會如何？」
「非常有意思，比我想像的好多了！」 ~我回答。
幾天以後，母親因心臟病猝發而去世。這事發生得太突然了，
讓我完全措手不及。
不久以後，我收到一封信，裡面是上次我和母親約會的那家餐館的一張收據，上面有一張字條寫著：「我已先付了賬，因為我確定自己不可能再有機會去了，但我還是付了兩人份的賬──你和你的妻子。你絕對想不到那一晚的約會對我有多大的意義，我愛你。」
從那一刻起，我深深體會，一定要及時說：
「我愛你」，並且要常常撥出時間給我們所愛的人。
世上沒有任何事比自然如來因緣和你的家庭更重要，
多花時間和他們在一起，因為這事絕不能拖延到「以後有時間再說 ...」。
「樹欲靜而風不止，子欲養而親不待」 是人生一大憾事。
~{ 愛無分 ,愛有份}~
不要等到爱得太迟，珍惜现在。祝您辛福！
Date with second women!

After get marriaged for twenty-one years, i found an unique way to refresh my love life.
Not long ago, I was date with a lady, and the idea was came from my wife.
One day my wife said: I know u love her. I was shocked: The one I love is you! She said: I know, but u love her too.
The lady that my wife asked me to visit was my mother.
She was alone for ninetwen years, however, I was busy with my job and my children, so I was less likely to visit her.
The night, i called her, invited her to have a dinner and movie with me at the second day.
' What happen? Are u alright?', she asked.
I answered: I was just thinking that if I have chance to date with u alone, it sure be very interesting.
After a while, she said: I do.
The Friday after i worked, I fetched her at her home, felt like a little bit nervous.
Because I had never to date with my mom before.
When I reached her house, I found that she seems a little bit nervous too.
She was in her suite, which she wore during her last wedding anniversary with my dad, waiting me in her house.
She made her hair specifically, smiling like an angel.
When she get into my car, she proundly said: all my friends were jeolous at me when they know that i'm gonna dating with my son.
We went to a restaurent which was not expensive but with warmth and cozy environment.
My mom hold my hand as she was the wife of president.
After seat her, I help her to order her food,
Because she only can read the big capital words.
When we were eating, I found she was stare at me,
She smile and said: I remembered that during ur childhood, I always make the order for u. I answered: then now is ur chance to take a rest and let me to serve u.
We keep talking during our dinner,
Sharing about our life and some special things heppening these few years.
We talked for very long time until we missed the movie. When I fetched her back to her house,
She asked: I'd like to date with u next time, but please let me pay the bill next time. I agreed.
When I back to my home, my wife asked: how's ur date with ur mom?
' It was interesting and fun, over my expectation', I answered.
Few days later, my mom was passed away due to heart failure. The thing happened in an unexpected manner,
I wasn't prepared for it at all.
Soon after this, I received a letter, there are a receipt of the restaurent that I dated with my mom, and a message: I already paid the bill for our next date, even though I know I'd probably won't have chance to date with u anymore, I still pay the bill for wo persons: u and ur wife. U will never know how meaningful the date to me, I love U.
At the moment, I realised: we must always spare our precious time to our beloved, and told them u love them before it is too late.
There is nothing more important than ur family, spend more time with them before it is too late.
Don't make any regret in our life.

古灵精怪的同事！
这两位都是我公司里最搞笑，最古灵精怪的同事。前一阵子，看了“叶问”后，他们还天天在公司里打永春拳呢！
其中一位（小椰子）最近抛弃了我们，跑回到家乡去享受天伦之乐，那么搞笑的情景再也不会出现了。趁着新年最后一天，拿出来和大家分享一下，缅怀一下开心的日子：）两位大哥，未经你们的同意，就上传这照片，希望你们不会介意。。

霹雳州 大变天 华哥的头痛
”华哥“自从308政治海啸过后，搞了一连串的动作，好想是要把整个马来西亚来个大变天。其实暗地里，心里却是提心吊胆的很，要知道这一批被中选的议员，好多都是临时被派上站场的党员，在心里的层面上这一些议员好多都不够扎实。
308让“华哥”获的意料以外的收获，由于明白到以上的这一点，“华哥”最重要的不是马上拿下马来西亚政府，而是怎样保住所赢出的5个州属。“华哥”多年的从政经验非常了解国阵的各种手段，所以想出“变天”的奇招，大事宣传916“变天”，谋的莫过于强逼国阵在看不清楚的情况下制定“反跳槽”宪法，有了“反跳槽”宪法，“华哥”就可以安心的壮大民联的根基。
然而，事与愿违，“大吉”为了在上任之前，立一立下马威，三两下就拿下了霹雳州，看来华哥可要头痛了。。。

Cannot install PHP 5.2.8 to XP IIS 5 ?
When trying to update my php from 5.1.4 to 5.2.8(php-5.2.8-win32-installer.msi) on my notebook running XP Pro with IIS 5.1 - ISAPI mode, the setup process keep generating an error pop-up dialog as follow:
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor"
After spending few hours of googling, found the following solution(Dicky-ProgrammingJoy blog):
If you still have problem with the installation, please visit Dicky's Blog for further solutions.
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor"
After spending few hours of googling, found the following solution(Dicky-ProgrammingJoy blog):
- When installing the php-5.2.8-win32-installer.msi: Install it in C:\PHP, DO NOT use the "Program File" as default and DON'T select Web Sever.
- The reason is that IIS 5 doesn't like space character when mapping the PHP dll. Even if you put quotation for your path, you may still encounter "The specified module could not be found" message when opening a PHP page.
- Select the "Don't Install web server" option. I tried to install "IIS ISAPI Module" and it didn't work for me.
- Once PHP is installed, restart your computer.
- (Here is where I am not sure why I was able to install the IIS ISAPI Module, but this is what I did)
- Download the PHP5 source code.
- Copy the php5isapi.dll to the PHP directory
- Manually setup the IIS - PHP mapping (Follow the instruction from this link)
- Run the msi installer again, run the Repair. It is suggested by the PHP install.txt file (find in C:\PHP\) that running the Repair may fix the issue when installing web server extension.
- Afterward, it may ask you to restart your computer.
- Run the msi installer one more time, click Change, and select IIS ISAPI Module this time.
- You should now able to install the IIS ISAPI module properly
If you still have problem with the installation, please visit Dicky's Blog for further solutions.
