  1. I totally agree with you. I was once played a game (RuneScape). I went on nearly everyday even though it has cheap *bottom* graphics. After about a year and a half, I realised I was wasting my time and decided to move into the programming arena. WOW, Audition, Maplestory and now GE(Genado Espada) have invaded teenagers'/kid's and even adult lives. Instead of doing something useful, they are glued to the computer doing the same task over and over in aims of achieving that awesome level. GE(Genado Espada) is running a TV advertisement here in Singapore and it is shown on the prime time slots where most kids are watching the TV. I say blame those advertisers and people who cannot control themselves.The funniest thing about players of MMORPG games? Just call them a noob and most will respond with every insult from the book and insults to your entire family tree :)


  2. I like to note that communism wasn't the sole cause for decline. One of the Chinese emperors actually halted the period renaissance by mass killing educated people in fear that they may take replace him, while other nations were embracing it. This is probably the reason why the Chinese were pretty much backward during the 1700s. Mao Zedong was a mirror image of that emperor. Communism also poisons the human spirit to work. Examples are Russia and East Europe. These factors contributed to the demise of China. Now to the topic, I believe the Chinese are a friend but sometimes act harshly like the shooting down of their own satellite creating millions of debris in space, not respecting the sovereignty of Taiwan.


  3. the links arent set up yet but i cannot even click on them to get re-directed to a "Does not exist" at school, its like they are pictures that aren't even linked but at home they link

    I have reason to believe your other files are on your home computer and not on the web server. jlhaslip, what's with the issue with png and IE, i am interested :)

  4. The guy's admirable for wanting to go. He didn't try to worm his way out of his commitment or anything like that.
    But still. It's a huge security risk to send a highly-recognizable, super-important guy into the middle of a war zone. Especially when the enemy refuses to just shoot you dead (opting instead to take people captive and, after several rounds of torture, behead them on camera).

    I'm sure that Prince Harry can still serve in the military - just not on the front line (or whatever passes for a front line in the urban war zone environment).

    Pretty much recently, when the UN Korean chief visited Iraq and was meeting the Prime minister in the "green" zone, a bomb still went off on the building adjacent to the building where they were meeting in. Number of times, terrorist managed to attack fortified areas, "safe zone", of the Americans so I believe in Iraq, no where is safe.

    I believe you have to use the http when defining links which isn't your base domain. Also are the files on your computer? because I got 404 errors.

  6. Prince Harry deployment Iraq was blocked by the ministry of defense(?) although past royals have served in the army and fought battles. The reason being that the Iraqi insurgents have formulated plans to capture Harry and they may use him against the British government or other government of the multinational force in Iraq also, Harry may put his unit in danger. I believe that harry should not be sent to Iraq not because of his life but the lives he is going to endanger, what are your opinions?


  7. Microsoft access is just a database management software. If you know php, you can grab the username/password from a html form using the $_POST/$_GET super global variables and store it into the mysql database. Examples of using the $_POST/$_GET can be found here http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and for the mysql syntaxes, http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/sql-syntax.html. You can visit PHP help IRC chatrooms on the various networks should you encounter any problems.
