方大同 Khalil Fong - 未來Wonderland



《未來》專輯承載著方大同的對這世界的希望以及對音樂的夢想,方大同在首張國語大碟一手包辦詞曲創作、編曲演奏和錄音製作,為歌迷們帶來全新的音樂作品。方大同雖然年紀輕輕,作品裡卻深受六七零年代美式摩城舞曲、靈魂樂和節奏藍調的影響。他從2005年起初試啼聲的《SOUL BOY》創作大碟,2006年再推出《愛愛愛》專輯,2007年底終於以全新力作《未來》正式進軍台灣。
《未來》專輯的情歌充滿魔力,細聽過專輯裡的譜曲、旋律與和聲,我們還可以發現加入中國小調的婉約東方風情,在方大同游刃有餘的騷靈唱腔中渾然天成,打造出只此一家別無分號的明顯個人招牌。至於形象方面,今次方大同有別於一貫黑白的衣著,以藍色沉鬱的調子會國語樂迷,並首次演繹純情歌「Love Song」。

01. Love Song
02. 夠不夠
03. 暖
04. 愛在
05. 公園
06. 簡單最浪漫
07. 十九八七....
08. 未來
09. 忘了美麗
10. Sorry
11. 愛愛愛 (Acoustic Version)


As you know, i'm not a fan of Chinese pop song.
ergh... But Khalil is different.
It's soul music~
wa..... relaxing!

Spice-Up Your Blog : Javascript Image Rollovers

Before we start, spot the differences between this two pics:
Image 1

Image 2

(screenshots were taken from my blog side-bar)

HOW TO DO THIS?
First of all, Thanks to Blogger for letting us to customize our blog.
If you don't like the dull Link Lists, perhaps you can try this.
Adding a pic for your link, another pic will be displayed when mouse over the pic.
This effect can be done easily by adding javascript or cascading style sheets(CSS).
(Of course, if you know about those coding languages, image rollovers effect could be done in various way.)

I've tried HTML code for this but the code was damn long and the result was not well.
So I've found a javascript from here and would like to share with ya.

What is image rollovers?

An image rollover is basically two different images. One is displayed after the page loaded up, the other one is displayed only when the user moves his mouse over the first one. Image rollovers are often used for a site’s interface. Currently this is the most popular JavaScript function.
(credit : here)


You could see the author was writing two image rollovers scripts, one is the basic script but with some disadvantages ( older browser can't displayed well, delay time) and a better script.

So I'll be explaining how to implement the second script with blogger.

1. Depends where you want to put it. For me, i'll put it at my blog side-bar.

Go to [Layout] -> [Add a Page Element] -> [HTML/JavaScript]

Then, insert below code. (NOTE: DO NOT EDIT THE CODE)

* Get the code at here if you're too LAZY to type it all.

2. Ok, this is the crucial part. Paste the below code aftertag.

* Get the code at here if you're too LAZY to type it all.

Index:
LINK = Website URL.
NAME = Put same value at here.
IMG 1 URL = The default image direct link
IMG 2 URL = The second image direct link
TYPE YOUR DESIRED MSG = Set the title for your image.

For eg,
i.
You wanna add Linda Chung's Fansite link, then you should put the website URL at "LINK".

ii.
Type Linda at "NAME". Make sure all the value at "NAME" are same.

iii.
If you have created two images, insert the direct link of the first image at "IMG 1 URL". (Like my first BoA pic; See Image 1)

iv.
You know what to do. Put the second image link at "IMG 2 URL". (Like my second BoA pic; See Image 2)

v.
Type Linda Chung's Fansite at "TYPE YOUR DESIRED MSG". When mouse roll over the image, it will display the title of the image. (See Image 2)

vi.
Repeat step i-v if you want to add more links.



ENJOY.

BBCode: Useful Firefox Add-on



Nuff said.
This Firefox extension is useful for those people who like blogging or active posting in forum.
BBCode, an add-on for Firefox browser which can enable users to use BBcode, HTML code and even XHTML code easily, by only right-clicking the mouse!
Besides, the latest version BBCode 0.5.2.2 added new options for too.
Users can also add up to ten custom tag or standard text strings.

Who are the authors?
Jed Brown, Mel Reyes (aka: mrtech)
Thanks them for creating such handy extension for Firefox users.

How to get it?
1. Get the extension at HERE.
2. Install it.
3. Restart Firefox.
4. Now, it's time to test the add-on.

Example:

NOTE: Make sure you're posting in "Edit Html" tab. (not in "Compose" tab)

For blogger, if u want to post picture and do not wish to use the HTML code provided by image hosters (ImageShack , Photobucket, etc), to make your blog look tidy and clean , you can try copy the direct link
(such as http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/6011/cheapusbkeyhh4.jpg )
and right-clicking mouse2 button, selecting "Clipboard" > "Image".
Then you will see your image code appear.


Application:
You can try this method by posting in internet forum, by USING BBcode.

(First option, above "HTML Code".)
Of course, you can try other codes after you know more about it.
Figure it out by yourself!
(BBCode Info, HTML Code Info, XHTML Code Info)

P/S: Make sure you're using Firefox browser before installing BBCode.

Firefox 2

Call of Duty 4 Crash Issues : Solutions


General COD4 Issues

>COD4 crashes when i try to change graphics / sound settings
XFire has been known to be one of the causes for this. Solution is to close XFire when making these changes.

>Everytime i try to connect to a server i watch the counter go to 10 and then get 'Connection Timed Out' error
This is probably because the master server cannot deal with the amount of players in COD4, theres a way around it tho.
Type this into the console:
/cl_connectionattempts 60
You should have more luck joining servers now, if you get bored of waiting on the timer screen you can type:
/disconnect
To cancel joining the server and go back to the main menu.

>Im trying to connect to an INTERNET server with more than 1 pc behind a router, but only 1 can connect!
Right click on your CoD4 desktop shortcut, select properties, and change the text in the target box to this (or similar)
"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call Of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +set net_port 28960
In other words add "space"+set net_port 28960 to the shortcut.
Player No.2 must make it +set net_port 28961
Player 3 +set net_port 28962
Player 4 +set net_port 28963 and so on
Don't forget the space between exe" and the plus sign.
Each player must have a different port from the others.

>I cant play COD4 SP because it asks me to insert the correct DVD. But i have it in my drive
* Hold down the left shift key when inserting the game disc if this problem is occuring on launch.
* Make sure you have 32 bit drivers for your CD-ROM drive.
* Set the CD-ROM cache size to zero.
* Change the DMA setting on the CD-ROM drive.
* Make sure the drive letters for the CD-ROM is set correctly.
* Make sure that the location for CD music to play is set correctly.
* Make sure your system can successfully play Audio CD's.
* Turn off Auto Insert Notification.
* If you have the CD burning software Alcohol 120% installed you need to turn off all of the emulation options.
1) Go to File > Options.
2) Click on Emulation in the menu to the left.
3) Uncheck all options in the window to the right.
* If you have CloneCD you need to turn off the Hide CDR media setting. This setting is accessable from the task tray icon for clone CD. Right-click on the icon and uncheck Hide CDR media.
* If you have an Nforce based motherboard go to http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp and get the latest Nforce drivers for your motherboard chipset.

>I have a Nvidia 7xxx GFX Card and get black objects in the game world / I get flickering lighting effects when they should be solid
You should go and download the Nvidia Forceware Beta 169.04 (169.09 will have flickering for some) driver as this is known to fix this issue.
Download from:
Vista (32bit) 169.04
XP (32bit) 169.04
Also goto Microsoft Site and download / install the latest Directx End-User Runtime.

>When i look into the 'ironsights' the screen goes black,white and all blurry
Turning OFF 'Depth of Field' in the graphics options is known to fix this.

>I get really bad lag when airstrikes happen. I cant move
Make sure your antivirus is not running while you are playing. This can cause lag with airstrikes because you get sent a lot of data to tell your client where the bombs are dropping, where the planes fly to / from and all the other stuff that your client is usually getting sent too.

>I get a DirectX error / Crash to desktop (CTD) when trying to change settings
Make sure you are not running Xfire when trying to change graphics settings because this is known to cause this error.
You can change settings manually by going into the COD44/players/yourname folder and editing the config_mp.cfg file.
To change the screen resolution:
search for "seta r_mode"
change the mode in the quotes to one you know works well.
e.g.
seta r_mode "1024x768"
you can also change other settings this way if you look through the config file a bit.
Also having the ATi Tray Tools on screen display running is known to cause this.

>I cannot run iw3mp.exe / iw3sp.exe it errors with 'iw3xx.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close'
There are a number of possible reasons for this happening:

Some onboard soundcards - Start ->Control panel -> Sounds and audio devices-> options -> properties. Pick Recording and then turn stereo mix ON.

Realtek onboard soundcards - Make sure you are using the newest drivers available. Some have reported that having a mic plugged in can fix this problem.

Realtek onboard soundcards - Sometimes disabling / enabling these can make it work (even if you dont use them for sound)

Realtek onboard soundcards and vista - Sometimes uninstalling the realtek driver and letting vista find its own works.

AthlonXP and Sempron (not 64bit) - Go into the cod4/miles folder and rename 'mssmp3.asi' to 'mssmp3.bak'. The miles sound system included is known to have issues with 32bit processors.
NOTE: This will disable ambient music in the game. An alternative mssmp3.asi can be found Here! so you can have music.

Dual X2900xt in crossfire mode - Downloading the WDM driver from the Ati/AMD Site is known to fix this.
As always if you have problems, Try to update all drivers (motherboard, soundcard, graphics card) to the newest available. Most can be found at your motherboard manufacturers website ( www.asus.com www.msi.com.tw www.via.com.tw www.gigabyte.com.tw etc.)

>I get random freezes and crashes while playing COD4
Rivatuner, ATiTool, LCD monitor tools, NTune (NVidia Control Panel), ASUS GamerOSD, ASUS SmartDoctor and possibly any other hardware monitoring program installed and running when trying to play COD4 could possibly be the cause.
Either close these applications or uninstall them and the problem should go away.

>I get random lag spikes in MP and have a wireless connection to my router
This can be caused by the 'Wireless zero configuration' service in windows.
To fix it you should install the application which came with your wireless card or dongle to control it instead of using the windows config.

>I get a crash with 'DirectX has encountered an error'
Update your DirectX to the latest version from the Microsoft Site
Make sure your drivers are upto date (For NVidia cards try the 169.04 beta drivers)
You may need to reinstall the game to fix this.

>I have Vista 64 and the screen is freezing and the game crashes with 'Direct3d9::Present' Error
This can be because your directX installation is out of date. Goto the Microsoft Site and download / install the latest Directx End-User Runtime.
Try the nVidia 162.50 drivers. That fixed the problem for some people.
XP/2000:

Vista 32-bit:

Vista 64-bit:

>I get a crash with 'Fastfile for zone 'some_filename_here' is corrupt or unreadable.'
You will probably need to reinstall the game to fix this.

>COD4 wont start. It errors with 'Video card or driver doesn't support separate alpha blend, glow will be disabled.'
This means that your video card is not supported. Onboard video chips, Nvidia cards older than the 66xx series and ATi older than the 98xx pro series are not supported by COD4. This could also be a driver problem so make sure your video drivers are upto date.


COD4 Issues with PunkBuster

>I cant enable PunkBuster. How do I install it?
Insert the COD4 dvd into the drive and browse it. Run pbsvc.exe to install PunkBuster.
You may need to reinstall the game and choose to install PunkBuster this time when it asks you.

>I got kicked for 'PunkBuster Init Failed'
This usually means your punkbuster isnt up to date. Get pbsetup run it and add Call Of Duty 4 to the list of games. Then hit check for updates. This should fix the problem.

>RESTRICTION: Unknown Windows API Function[131133]
Apparently using the built in interface by steam in COD4 is cheating. Atlest it is according to punkbuster. To get rid of this error message open up steam and go to [ Settings -> In-Game ] and uncheck the Enable Steam Community In-Game button

>RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrB.exe handshaking failed.
If you get this message it because your Punkbuster files are corrupt, missing or simply forgotten by PB. To fix this you should reinstall the punkbuster service module and reupdate PB. To do this you can go to your steam/steam apps/common/call of duty 4/PB/ folder and run pbsvc.exe to reinstall it. After that you should re-update it by using the pbsetup.exe.

>I get 'PB Client in Distress' error messages
This is a problem with the PunkBuster authentication servers. Theres nothing you can do about it.

>I get kicked with 'Ignore queries #9006' message from punkbuster
You have to open UDP port 28962 for Punkbuster Update.
You can manually update with 'pbsetup.exe' from the Evenbalance website.

Miscellaneous (written by me)
>How to record in-game multiplayer gameplay without using third parties program (such as FRAPS)?
To record in-game gameplay, open console and type this:
/record

To stop recording, type this into console:
/stoprecord

>How to play recorded in-game multiplayer gameplay?
Okay, you've done with your clip and play the recorded clip, but when you type
/demo recorded demo name
the game will display an error:

No panic, dude.
Go to "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call Of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\main",
find folder "demos" and copy the whole folder to
"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call Of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\Mods\ModWarfare"
Then launch the game.
In game menu, select [Mods], and launch [ModWarfare].
This time, type this command again into console :
/demo recorded demo name
for eg,
/demo demo0001
Enjoy.

Peace.

[L]ast 23days


As I mentioned before (here), L:Change The World is screening on April 3rd, 2008 in Malaysia.
Guess i'm right.
don't miss the show!!!

I'll be Waiting.... - Ending Theme


Download : HERE

Update:
Just finished watching this movie at cinema just now!
My rating for the movie : 4 out 5
Yes, please don't be so surprise or disappointed, this is a spin off of Death Note,
it is all about L, not about Kira (he was dead in Death Note 2 : The Last Name), not about Shinigami/Dead God, Ryuk will only be a cameo in the film, & certainly not about the cutie, Misa Misa .. erggh.. as she did not play a major role (:P), so logically, this is a story about L and his last 23 days of life.
Nothing much to add, the story plot is fine, damn, L is a SMART ASS!
w00t!
i like his ending quote, "Remember no matter how gifted you are, you alone cant change the world".

Yes, he's right. L Lawliet was right.

Player Killing

Player Killing (PKing) is a part of online gaming with real people. It is when you kill another person's character. Some other terms in pking are: PJing which means pile jumping, or attacking someone when they are picking up the items dropped by a player they have just Player Killed, Safer, which means someone who PKs safely (especially when eating or healing) and doesn't take risks, making it unfair on the people trying to PK them and DD which means death dot, when people in a Player Killing team all stand underneath each other, making it appear to other players that there is only one person there. however, "safing" varies in how other people percept it. it can be used to stay alive, however you usually lose a chance to hit when healing.
