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.
If I were to send a message like this to any one of my friends (Pahoran was a good man, and a friend to captain Moroni), I'm fairly sure I would at very least offend them to the point of damaging the friendship, and at most, cause them t...

AudioGuru
So, last night we finished recording the first two songs from a band called Fatigi. One of the best recording sessions ever.
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...

Pondering on the words of Elder Burgess, I am led down a thought process a bit different than where his talk went.

The whole concept of "defining oneself" baffled me some years ago.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
We believe other lands had visits from Christ.
They saw signs in the heavens, they knew His name.
He taught them, they felt His wounds, He dried their eyes.
The Book of Mormon testifies that He came.
We're Christians otherwise nicknamed “The Mormons”.

Mosiah : 14

One question comes to mind this time reading chapter 14 and the beginning of 15.
Why in the world did Abinadi think these priests could understand what he was talking about?
An interesting perspective can be had when the audience of each scripture is considered.
The thing I don't get about these chapters (14 and 15), is that the doctrine A...

Reading the beginning of this chapter, it's interesting that Mosiah put laws into place which made voicing anything which could be interpreted as "persecutions" against the church, illegal - and it seemed to work. There was "peace" for a number of years due to that law. The church even began to grow and prosper more ...
