Back Online

From August 27 until this afternoon, I wasn't able to get online because the phoneline I am using for my modem went dead. This afternoon, we learned about the problem: it was wet wiring. This was caused by the rain last week but I didn't know that the socket into which the phone line is inserted got... Sign in to see full entry.

Working With The Moms

Two days before the feast of St. Monica (August 27) I had the opportunity to do something with the St. Monica Intercessory Group of our parish. The group was established in 1997 and its main apostolate is to pray for anyone who may be in need of it. They are like the spiritual dynamo of the parish;... Sign in to see full entry.

Some Thoughts on the Feast of the Transfiguration

During today's masses, I had the opportunity to talk about two aspects of the Transfiguration in two different occassions. One was based on Peter's reaction to the experience, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here." and the other is anchored on the voice from the cloud "This is my Beloved Son. Listen...

August 28 Is Going To Be A Big Day

My website AgustinongPinoy is going to be 7 years old on August 28. The anniversary coincides with the feast of St. Augustine of Hippo, the spiritual father of the Order of St. Augustine. It was in preparation for the feast of St. Augustine, in 1999 when I decided I would put up a website for the... Sign in to see full entry.

My PhotoGallery

I've almost forgotten about it. Fortunately, I visited the server to check the condition of some files and found this ol d Gallery installation that I put up a year ago to test. It is an outdated Menalto Gallery but it works fine so I uploaded some pictures into it and can now be visited. The photos... Sign in to see full entry.

What do you use your computer for?

The following is a post I made to a discussion in an online forum. The question for discussion was "What do you use the computer for?" I am posting it because of a related question "What can you do with a computer?". I asked the question years ago to a group of students who were complaining about... Sign in to see full entry.

Type First, and Then Format

I have been noticing this girl in the office lately who seems to take the whole day typing a five-page report. She knows how to type and she types quick, having learned to do it through lessons with the typewriter she took in high school (that makes her one of the few rare birds at the office). But...

Thinking of a New Project

The elements are already there. All I have to do is reformat selected articles I have already published and put them together into a *.CHM file (you know, the kind that you have in Windows as a Help file?) for distribution (or if I can get a nice EBookBuilder that is free then distribute it as an...

Another Attempt At Graphics Creation

I spent some two hours today trying to capture in an image one of the passages in Hosea 11:1-9, the one about Ephraim being taught how to walk. I drew the picture first on a piece of paper, and I scanned it on a cranky Genius Color Vivid scanner and then worked on it using Adobe Photoshop. That the... Sign in to see full entry.
