Lunascape 5 Genesis Beta released Feb. 10, 2009

Wow, this new browser Lunascape can render webpages with the three most popular web browser engines. Trident + Gecko + WebKit. For those of us wanting to test webpage layouts thus installing IE7, firefox, and Safari, now you only need one browser. It’s still in its beta version for now, but it looks quite good to me. In terms of features it pretty much has everything you can think of. And it scores 100 on the Acid3 test. It’s quite impressive. ...

President Barack Obama's speech transcript

My fellow citizens: I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition. Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents. ...

Give Me Your Eyes - Brandon Heath

The more and more I listen to this song, the more I fall in love with it. I hope you will like this song as well! Give Me Your Eyes - Brandon Heath Looked down from a broken sky Traced out by the city lights My world from a mile high Best seat in the house tonight Touched down on the cold black top Hold on for the sudden stop Breath in the familiar shock Of confusion and chaos All those people going somewhere, Why have I never cared? ...

church culture

I have been doing some searches on churches lately. Then I came across these two articles. They are pretty well written. Is your church more Chinese than Christian? Youth: most active, least committed Disclaimer: The above articles do not necessarily represent my view. ^^;
