Padonc's "Bought from Mae Hong Son" T-shirts -- Interesting Souvenir from Mae Hong Son

Padonc's "Bought from Mae Hong Son" T-shirts -- Interesting Souvenir from Mae Hong Son

The "I love New York" t-shirt and the series of souvenir was one of my impressive memory from my previous trips to New York City. I got this same kind of impression when I was browsing by the shops by the Jong Kam Walking Street in the city of Mae Hong Son in the second night of the trip.

I didn't look at the seller when I caught the sight of these T-shirts. The seller greeted me and, surprisingly, she was P'Kwan, my senior alumni from Chulalongkorn University, who lives in Mae Hong Son and gave me a warm welcome when my family and I went for a dinner at Fern Restaurant in Mae Hong Son town the other night. Note: Pi or P' (its abbreviation) is a Thai word to call an elder sister or brother.

Here are the pictures:

Oh!! Nice photos. I have been there too, but long time back perhaps 7 years. Look like things have changed a lot. I must go there again and check it out. Thanks for sharing photos.

iTunes: Error 261 while Burning Data CDs/DVDs

Apple Discussions: 261 error while burning MP3 CD. I usually put an aphostrophe (') in the name of playlists and was having error 261 burning CD/DVD data discs since iTunes 5.1. Upgrading to iTunes 6.0 for Windows doesn't help. I was burning a music DVD this morning and had Error 261 again. So I went to Apple iTunes Discussions site and look for a thread on this. Viola! There are many people having the same problem as mine. The thread ends at a point where someone removing ampersands, the '&' symbols, from their playlists and could avoid this error. I tried removing aphostrophes from the name of my playlist because aphostrophe falls into the kind of non-alphabet characters that needs escaping in some programming languages. It works!!

Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 Crashes Thai Language Input in Outlook 2007

It's been more than a year since I last blogged. I've been busy with work and also don't know what to blog. Here comes my new findings: Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 + Outlook 2007 + Thai Language Input = CRASH This has also been proven here . I downloaded the Outlook Connector the other night for improved supports to Windows Live Hotmail -- only to find that whenever I start typing e-mails in Thai, i.e., hit the "language switch" key Outlook simply crashes! I googled for " outlook 2007 crash language switch " this morning and find someone having the same Outlook Connector insta.led and the same problem as mine. So, Outlook Connector is most likely the cause of trouble. I uninstalled Outlook Connector this morning and, yes, typing in Thai doesn't crash Outlook 2007 anymore!

MPICH2: mpdboot failure due to conflicting /etc/hosts entry

One single line in the /etc/hosts file on my Ubuntu Linux machine wasted my precious whole afternoon. I had some assumptions about the cause of this problem but I don't want to spend too much time investigating on what really caused the trouble. Anyway, here are the listings of what worked and what didn't: /etc/hostname ubuntu mpd.hosts.cluster master worker-01 Bad /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain ubuntu 192.168.200.128 master 192.168.200.129 worker-01 Result thitiv@ubuntu:~$ mpdboot -n 2 -f mpd.hosts.cluster thitiv@master's password: mpdboot_ubuntu (handle_mpd_output 359): failed to ping mpd on master; recvd output={} Good /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 192.168.200.128 ubuntu master 192.168.200.129 worker-01 Result thitiv@ubuntu:~$ mpdboot -n 2 -f mpd.hosts.cluster thitiv@worker-01's password: thitiv@ubuntu:~$ At this point, with the /etc/hosts now fixed, the MPICH2 cluster could be booted up successfully. I don't want t...
