AES and PHP
PoeticIntensity
After receiving a warning in my PHP implementation of AES encryption (which is called Rijndael), I did a quick google, and found one match - and it happened to be in planet larry, so... I clicked on the link to go to the blog which contained the fix, and found it wasn't there anymore... So.. I thought I'd just copy the answer and ...

Blue Aces Bring The Heat!
AudioGuru
With as little sleep as I got last night, when I woke up this morning, I was a bit worried about the Aces' session today. Man alive! I don't know what I was worried about! These girls nailed their new song, Fooled Twice, wholeheartedly! Spot-on timing, vocals, tunes, and had a great time, to boot.
You're gonna love it!&nbs...

Hmm.... I can't help but contrast a note like this one being sent between friends today. Holy cow.

So, on Tuesday evening, Adam, Christian, and Robert came in, with drums in hand, ready to get to work.
We tracked drums first, which, for my studio, is rare - mostly because drums can get monotonous with nothing b...

In verse 10, Mormon notes the intent with which Aml...
