DR. DOBB’s JOURNAL IS DEAD?!!!

Posted by pilipinas.it on January 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment

it came as a surprise and a wonder when i found out about this news today from DevTopics.

effective jan ‘09, dr. dobb’s journal (DDJ) is changing to dr. dobb’s report and will be delivered as a new monthly section in the InformationWeek magazine.

DDJ’s editor-in-chief Jonathan Erickson however put it this way, “Dr. Dobb’s isn’t insulated from change. We’ve seen it all around us for years and years. Moreover, we’ve encouraged you to embrace change in everything from programming languages and modern processor architectures to Green Computing and the Internet. But talk’s cheap, and at some point, you have to put your spare change where your mouth is — and that time is now for Dr. Dobb’s.“

Weddings at Fernwood Gardens

Posted by ApplesH on January 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I am a great fan of weddings be it small, intimate, or loud and grand. Weddings signify love and romance and being a hopeless romantic, I am attracted to weddings as bees are to honey. My hubby asked me the other day, why there are so many weddings scheduled on the month of January. This week alone two of my friends had their weddings, and I am attending my brother’s wedding next week. I honestly do not have an answer although I feel its just because its so lovely to hold a wedding in January – the weather is just perfect!

Will I make it? [Not much of a proper post, but it's enough.] Something Gay link at the end

Posted by arelente2 on January 7, 2009 · Leave a Comment

at 10:40 PM From the mind of arelente2 This is under: job, life

I haven’t posted a very proper New Year’s post. Apologies.

A lot of things happen at the end of this year.

Me and an Illustration on how foggy it was!

Late November: I was barred from the computer.

Early December: I realized that I may be laid off from my job in a children’s apparel store because a worker I filled out for who took maternity leave went back.

Mid December: When asked to speak the truth, I told my Uncle with a flat out ‘NO’ that I do not like working for him. The next day (12-24, eve before Christmas), he told me that he’ll be taking his bike that he lent to me. He also has 1 more bike and 3 cars; did I mention a BMW motorcycle?

Now: I’m filling up for my mom’s job as a custodian (fancy word for janitor), and I’m looking for a job.

Tomorrow: I’m hoping for a better arc.

There are always good things. (more Will I make it? [Not much of a proper post, but it's enough.])

Also something from flickr. It’s something Gay
