Time to study.

“Over the last week I have now got 70-301, one of the hardest MCP tests I have done. You really need to know the information form 70-301 and 70-300 as the test references both. Also a good review of all th eMSF 3.1 Whitepapers on the Microsoft site helped immensely. Im now in the process of studing for 70-229 SQL Design, it is not looking to bad at the moment, well until I have to get into Normalisation :D The twins are doing well, Amelie is now smiling all the time and Anja is well, being Anja :)”

Its a Sunny Day

“The weekend has a good start to it. It is nice and warm at the moment (22C). So to celebrate we are having a BBQ luch and putting the pool up. The past week went well with me spending the bulk of it studying, and I even passed. Im now a MCP again as I did 70-228 (SQL Admin). I will be putting some photos up of Kew gardens tonight. We went there last weekend and it was a really nice day out. Continue reading

Site Update

“I have decided to create a theme from scratch myself and this is it, it is called Blue Cross. It has been designed to take variable width content in the centre so i can embed gallery and my wiki into the site. I have also upload Photo Collector, a application i wrote to handle the copying of images from my camera in a organised manner. http://blog.sytone.dev/photo-collector/"

I hav ebeen doing a manual file listing and copying it according to date (yyyy_mm_dd) and haveing folders named the same. After getting annoyed with doing this manually I have created the photo collector. It will handle JPG and AVI files and copy them to there corect taken date folder on the destination.

Back from Rome

“We had a nice time in rome and Im getting photos ready to upload. Nature/IMG_4754.jpg I also have the Gallery plugin for wordpress working, and of course done the obligatory tweaking :D I have added some code to make it look nice and handle the class attributes correctly. Also I noticed that his site missed the fact you have to have the jpg extention on the file as well.”

Its a baby!

“ameliezerobirthday/IMG_5152.jpgIm proud to announce the birth of our baby daughter, she was born at around 15:00 today. She is 54cm tall and weights 3.85Kg (8.5 Pounds). Her name is Amelie Jade Bullen. We opted for a home birth and it was worth it. The two midwives were excellent and it was much calmer having all our own stuff around. Photos are now up”

Still waiting

“So no news as of yet, we are still waiting for the arrival of number two.”
