Filming movie - of course, the filming company only interview Peter and Kerry, but this really has hampered my PAE work today, so I've got to postpone the work till tomorrow.

Weird blog - cont'd

I've just added up a few topics in my diary, and suddenly noticed that the layout of "Tzuchi anniversity" on 22/Oct now shows correct. -.-;

...but still, some recent posts have got weird layout...what the hell is this... :(

Ehh?! Weird blog

I haven't logged into blogger.com and was thinking of updating my diary now. Unexpectedly a notice board which says the blogger system has been upgrading to a new version and I was suggested to transfer my blog to the new beta version. It also says that the blog transferring will be executed automatically and the layout and format of my blog won't be changed. So I let blogger.com upgraded my blog.

The result, however, has proved to be a disaster. As one may find in this post and the one on 22/Oct, the paragraph layout looks odd - lines don't break where they're supposed to; some lines even exceed the width of the template whereas there's no option that I can do to this problem!! I've tried to change my template but still no joy. This never happen before... Even preview  doesn't reflect the layout it will reveals after uploading... I really shouldn't have done this troublesome upgrading... :(   Arghhhh...my blog now looks so ugly ...  :~~

Apparently other bloggers have also got heaps of problem as well. Unless blogger.com gets this problem sort out shortly, I suppose I'll switch to another blog site! :(

beta.Blogger.com, are you listening?

Fix computer

Another computer repairation today.

Aunti Sanger came to my place while I was away this afternoon. When I was back I was told by Vicky that aunti Sanger was looking for me, hence I rang her and knew that another Tzuchi member's (named "Star") computer has got weird internet, which hasn't been able to get online for ages and would like me to have a look on it.

After having dinner with Stars', we had a look on the problematic computer. It was quite slow - a common problem which can be seen on most computers. The main issue - the internet - was eventually found to be caused by the security suite (TrandMicro's product) installed in Star's computer. After uninstalling it, the internet came to alive. However it's surprising that he hasn't got any protection against spywares, virus and other attack (i.e. he's got the security suite but he's NEVER update them).

As it'd been a bit late, I just made a rough tuning up for Star so that the computer may run more smooth than before and came back with aunti Sanger and uncle Larry. Probably I'll have to go over there again in near future.
