  • Hong Kong Flower Show 2012

    Went to the Hong Kong Flower Show 2012 yesterday.

    Although the weather was not very nice and it’s mostly overcast, it didn’t stop people from coming in flocks and taking photographs.

  • Tibet

    A photo of a Tibetan Child. A candlelight vigil was held in Tsim Sha Tsui on 10-Mar to commemorate the 53rd anniversary of the 1959 Tibetan uprising.

    I was totally dumbfounded.

    In the past week, there were two public memorial services for Tibet in Hong Kong. So I grabbed the opportunity to educate myself…

  • From Drupal to WordPress

    in

    Thank you, Drupal.

    While you are, in my opinions, a better designed and more proper CMS (Content Management System), taking care of you is perhaps taking a little bit too much time and effort for my ramblings. Moreover, since my favourite coat—box_cleanslate, doesn’t fit onto your latest body (D7), at last I decided to adopt WordPress instead.

    I could have kept dating your last incarnation (D6) indefinitely, but sooner or later one will be forced to get with the times, as there will be no doctor to take care of you when you’re sick.

    This blog entry and the discussion that follows sum up rather nicely the differences between you and WordPress, and the considerations one should take when deciding which to use.

    By the way, to save the time and effort migrating the old content into the new system, I just used wget and turned the old domain into a static website.

    Better a meal of vegetables where there is love

  • Scavengers

    in ,

    They turn the needy from the pathway,
    and the poor of the land hide themselves together.
    Like wild donkeys in the desert
    they go out to their labor,
    seeking diligently for food;
    the wasteland provides food for them
    and for their children.
    – Job 24:4-5
