First off, I live in New England, where there is snow. Lots of it. A place near me has snow tubing. We went today, and it was one of the most fun things that I have done in a while. However, you don't want to fall off of your tube at high speed on the ungroomed part without gloves. I did, and cut up the back of my hands and face on it. I, according to the rest of the people who were with me, did a few summersaults and landed on my face. I ended up biting my lip, and drawing some blood. I do have to say, though, that the inherent risk of tubing does not outweigh the risk of epic lulz.
I just ran a surface scan on my computer with Techtool. that is why I haven't blogged for a day; it was still running. If you have techtool, Run it. It may not free up space, but it will optimize the drive and squeeze all of the available power out of it. Your computer will run faster with an optimized drive.
Well, I didn't screw up too badly. I got all of the words right, and didn't make any mistakes. I did read pretty slowly, though. No-one seemed to mind. Not bad, eh?!
Today, I'm supposed to read the torah. I feel terrible because I have a head cold, and I can't talk well. I really hope everything works out, for my sanity's sake. I'll tell you how it goes later today....
You know, these national surveys are really pointless. Today, in class, we only had 8 people because of one of these. This NAEP test, or something like that, has taken our class away. So now, we (all 8 of us) are just chillin', getting nothing accomplished for two periods. Thanks again, National Center of Education Statistics (or whatever your name is).
I have found that in Dreamweaver CS4 the insert/update record wizard is screwey. When you make an update or insert form, the form ends up way at the bottom of the page. I have no idea why this is, but there is no way to fix it. Adobe, help us out!
In Flex 3, I have found a minor bug. If you put an image component into a data grid, you encounter some problems. Like the fact that the images don't load unless you scroll to the bottom of the data grid. If you can't scroll, no images. So, I found you should use a Title, Horizontal or Vertical List for image display.
Even though I am only a budding Flex developer, I have found a couple resources to be useful. One is free, and is the Adobe Flex in a Week training online. This is great if you are one of those fast paced people. Not for me. Another is the Total Training for Flex 2 and 3. They are slower paced, and pack more information in to the training. There are 2 for Flex 2 at least, Rich Internet Applications and Advanced Visual Programming. The first one is more basic, and the second one is longer and more in depth. Hence the "Advanced".
Welcome All to my blog. I will over the course of time be talking about my experiences and mishaps with Adobe Flex. I want to be certified by June, and am on my way. I'll keep you posted.
