Keep using modified themes of windows after M$ KB925902.

Microsoft recently released a security update KB925902, which keep monitoring the size of the multimedia resources loaded in the memory. Many awesome themes for windows modified shell32.dll to include more eye candies. I am personally using FlyakiteOSX, whose modified shell32.dll file reaches 27MB, and that screwed M$'s security check. The result of this issue is that some software, such as Calculator, GVim, and WMM, could not work, since system will complain the use of memory address.

Fortunately, we can still cheat M$ to work around this issue by rebuild the user32.dll, which comes with the update KB925902. And there's a nice guy "Marzo Sette Torres Junior" wrote a detailed tutorial about how to rebuild the DLL. As a Memo, I reposted his article in below:

Subdomains works now!

Instead of using PHP scripts for page redirection, I am now using html code to redirect the pages. At least it works and now the gallery and blog can be accessed through http://gallery.qingshen.de and http://blog.qingshen.de

Belgium Photos are updated!

The web-space provider of my personal website recently installed suPHP module, which causes some problems in page redirection. Fortunately they managed to bring my gallery and blog back to the world :-) Since the subdomains will not work at this moment, to access the blog and gallery please use http://www.qingshen.de/blog/ and http://www.qingshen.de/gallery/.

After nearly 2 months, I finally finished sorting all the photos shot in Belgium during Easter. A direct link to its album is http://www.qingshen.de/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2787 It's a shame that I have been so busy with my new job and have no time at all to do my hobbies. It should be better once I get totally settled in the new city and country.

Blog and Gallery work again!

The problem was that my web-space provider recently change their PHP server to suPHP, which does not allow me to use ".htaccess" to modify the memory settings. Fortunately, the provider responded to my problem report quickly and now the gallery and blog work again.

However, we still have redirection problem, which makes the wiki down. I will contact my provider again and try to fix it.

Cheers.

The "three mouseketeers" of Nikkor Lens!

Before I came to Canada, I sold my lovely Nikon D70 but kept the lens AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED (3.8x). And I suppose to buy a new Nikon DSLR here, but recently ran out of money. So, I can only checking the website to feed my desire. Yesterday, I found some nice pics from the best three zoom lens that nikon has made. Hope I have money later to get them.

接上文:微波炉煮的饺子和豪华方便面

旅馆里只有微波炉,就不管有没有营养了,先解馋再说:

温哥华的“华”化

刚来温哥华两个半星期，结果上班就已经两个星期了。再加上很多要办的手续，星期一到星期五基本就是没有闲暇的时间。周末了，自然就要去放松一下。人生地不熟，能去哪里呢？平日里没有时间做调查，临时抱佛脚也来不及。哎，又过了在网上GG,MM“拉帮结派”去“海皮”的年纪了。最后只好去Shopping Mall逛逛了。虽然说俺不好一个逛街，不过生活必需品总是要购置的。在路上的时候，猛然想起刚来时一个中国朋友特意推荐过一个叫“大统华”的华人连锁超市。既然是友人极力推荐，那还是要去探探究竟的。

经过漫漫征途，终于在Shopping Mall的底层找到了传说中的“大统华”超市。大温哥华地区华人之多，其实是众所周知的事情。其中又以温哥华市和Richmond市尤最。年初的时候因为工作面试来过一趟，也看了名声在外的北美第二大“中国城”。但和今天进入“大统华”超市的感觉截然不同。去中国城，就像是老外在深圳看世界之窗，而在“大统华”超市，就是南京人逛苏果的感觉。

我这么说主要有这么几个原因：首先是语言，基本只说华语，广东话居多，剩下的都是各种腔调的普通话，这其中当然也包括台湾人的“国语”。然后是货物，正宗“国货”，这里的国货是指就是那些在国内能买到的东西。据个例子，看到这里出售的美国黑人牙膏的包装盒上赫然印着“黑人牙膏”四个汉字。不知道如此“华”化是否必要:) 再者就是购物的方式了，和国内无太大区别，熙熙攘攘好不热闹。最后就是规模，基本和本地超市规模相当。相比之下，欧洲那些小豆腐块亚超里面还包括不少泰国，越南的物品，所以根本不能说是中国超市（其实人家也没说是中国超市，只是华人在外影响大，基本上亚超可以和中国超市画等号）。回来后，打电话给纽约的一位老友，说起这件事情，他也感叹温哥华给华人带来的方便，美国恐怕也只有三藩市可以媲美了。

虽然说“大统华”东西不少，可惜我现在居无定所，也都不方便卖。最后只好无奈的买了点方便面，方便粉丝，和期待已久的饺子回来。下面奉上照片一张，大家共欣赏。温哥华的“华”化，当然不只这一点，不过由此可见一般了。我想这也要归功于那些来这里投资消费和“富有”国人们。他们说，我们想要适合自己生活的方式和环境，于是他们就有了这样的生活方式和环境。。。。
