Seriously, I want a good pack of color pencils. Ever since the pack got mess up and scattered across the world by my sis, I got nothing to draw with. I haven’t been drawing for ages…I think over 2 years…yah so today I really feel like drawing and I got nothing to draw.

I got no good soft leaded pencil, no color pencil, no rubber, no good sheet of paper… CRAP I got nothing at all.

So I was really nice soft leaded pack of color pencils, a good 3B or 4B pencil and nice rubber.
Ok I better go rob my sister, I think she has some nice pencils. hmmm

Monday being a public holiday, this is was a long weekend for us in Fiji. It’s Fiji’s 35th independence day and some special events such as various sports competitions, cultural shows, and many other private parties or picnics have been organized to celebrate this year Fiji day.

It was a beautiful, sunny and perfect weekend for outdoor activities. Every year we take part in 3 days long badminton competition and we hardly get to see other activities around town. This year due to some mishaps (being lazy, sick, no practice, just lazy), we did not take part in our usual Fiji day badminton competition. So we thought of roaming around in town to see some parade at the park and cycling. As usual we got there late so we missed the starting of the cycling and couldn’t take photos of them. We also missed the gun and a cannon shooting just by 10 min, and the event was pretty much over. Anyway got some Fiji police photos and some piglets :p Someone’s lunch I guess. Poor, poor piglets!

And the “Picture of the day” goes to…

No, no seriously …it’s this one.

More Fiji Day photos can be seen here.

My eyes become weirder everyday. What do you see in the following picture?

Parrot rite? Man, I only realize that’s a parrot after my second glance, my first glance tell me it’s a pony!!
Can you believe that?

This is how I look at it, focus on the eye part (marked “eye”) and you’ll see it looks like a pony…or only me seeing strange things.

Damn I really need my eyes check up!

Seriously this is just too much pain for me. May be I don’t know the easy steps or there is just no easy way out.

Web projects have always been in conflict with Visual Source Safe in many areas especially when adding to VSS with proper directory mapping and moving projects around different VSS DBs.

I unbind the solution, unbind the project, then bind to new DB. First it seems all right with every files checked in. Then I can’t build nor save the whole project. Something about “check out solution” to build or “discard memory change”. Both option won’t save properly. The next restart of the solution will not include the web project and give you a project not found error.

I remove all .scc, mssccprj.scc and .csproj.vspscc files from solution as well as the project and try again. Still giving

me that same old shit error! This is just freaking hell, taking too much of my time trying many different ways.

Some projects binded well after about 3 tries but some just not happening. I tried 6 times for one project and finally about to give up, found the solution.
It’s not a good solution but it’s working.

First of all you’ll have to get rid of all those, vss associated, mentioned files above. Just search in the project folders and delete all.
Once you’ve done that, open solution file (.sln) and project file (.csproj) in NOTEPAD!
Yah you really need to play around with those source files.

In both files, you’ll see some encrypted codes and some understanding configurations. Now you know what to do.
Just have to delete all VSS config parts. Oh yah, you’ll have to uncheck “Read Only” permission from all your files so better allow read to the whole project folder.

Ok back to solution file, you need to remove “GlobalSection(SourceCodeControl)” bit, similar to the following.


GlobalSection(SourceCodeControl) = preSolution
SccNumberOfProjects = 1
SccLocalPath0 = .
CanCheckoutShared = true
SolutionUniqueID = {04C8BE20-2A9D-4E0B-9E42-AA9E45834A6F}
EndGlobalSection


Again from project (.csproj) file, delete the followings from the very first config tag.


SccProjectName = "SAK"
SccLocalPath = "SAK"
SccAuxPath = "SAK"
SccProvider = "SAK"


Now that should set things right and your project becomes fresh, offline, unbinded version. You can finally proceed to the binding with new VSSDB as normal new project binding steps.

phweeewwwwww!

That’s the only way I can think of to make it work and it took me hell lotta time to figure it out. So here you go – my note of struggling with vss transfer.
Do let me know if you have better/easier solution to this problem as I very much wish to know the proper method rather than scratching head, pulling hairs, banging around, following above steps.

Ok, the first time I saw that headline I thought, what! “Xena”(Lucy Lawless) has a new child and named her “Gabrielle”???
Haha Ofcos’ I was completely wrong!
The “Xena” they refering to here is our new 10th planet and the “Gabrielle” is Xena’s newly found moon.
Pretty cool planet and the side kick moon aren’t they?

XENA, the possible tenth planet in our solar system, has its own moon, a dim little satellite called Gabrielle

Scientists at an observatory on the U.S. island of Hawaii discovered the moon three weeks ago. They estimate it is slightly more than 250 kilometers in diameter, about one-10th the size of its far-flung planet, which is known informally as Xena.

Why do you want 30gigs email? I don’t know because I don’t want/need one.
But if you feel like you must have one then, hey go ahead, it’s there for you and yes it’s free!

I got this info via “FluxionTech”. well yah, you need to have invite from someone who has it. Don’t look at me, I don’t have one and I don’t want one either.
But don’t worry, the guys from “FluxionTech” giving out invites and you could test your luck there.
