File Management in PHP

Today I added a new article about File Management in PHP. File management involves copying, deleting, and renaming files. Some programmers like to use system functions to do this.

If you missed my first post about File Properties you might want to read it first. 

African Lion Safari

This year I’ve seen some really cool places in Ontario (Canada), and the most exciting one is African Lion Safari. I like the ability to drive among the animals. I made some really cool pictures.

I was afraid for my car, especially when I was among monkeys. They like to climb up almost on every car and have a ride on the roof.

Windows 8

Totally agree. Windows 8 applications style is good enough for Tablets only. It is going to be the biggest Microsoft fail. I will not upgrade to this OS in he next 2 years for sure, unless Microsoft fixes all UI and usability bugs. I don't think MS will fix anything.

I'm glad I switched to Apple. Now I always use my MacBook Air and Mac OS X mountain lion. As Apple says - the most advanced OS ever. And it really is. 

Sony XPERIA Tablet S 11

Honestly, I don’t like Android. It is a quite good OS, but I prefer iPhone and iOS. Cannot tell you why, I just like it. But yesterday I found information about new tablet from Sony XPERIA Tablet S 11 and I’m very interested in buying this tablet.

Sony produces great products. All Sony laptops are great. They are a bit expensive but really great. If I have some extra money I will buy one Sony XPERIA Tablet S.

Winona Peach Festival

I like small festivals in small towns. There a lot of fun for children and the ones who like old cars. Winona Peach Festival one of the festivals where you can see old and upgraded cars.  The Festival provides something great for all ages.
But this year I don't have time to attend it. But I would love to do it next year. 

African Lion Safari

Last weekend my family and I were in the African Lion Safari Park in Hamilton, Ontario. Here is a nice picture I made in the park (see one more picture here: Lion in the side view mirror):

Google Nexus 7 for only $199

Google has announced a new tablet Google Nexus 7 for only $199. It is cheap but the tablet is only 7 inches and has only 8GB. BlackBerry tablet has the same 7 inches screen for $199, but 16GB. It is $50 cheaper, because Nexus 7 16GB will cost $245.
In my opinion creation such a cheap tablet is a very bug mistake. I highly recommend you to read Google Nexus 7 tablet price. Google is very successful in Brasilia, India and China, but Apple feels very well in USA, Canada and other more appealing counties. 

Free network utilities

My network utilities software is now absolutely free-of-charge. That's not all. I'm thinking about making all my software free. Ant that is not all. I'm thinking about opening all source codes. It is too hard to compete on this market and I decided to change my buisnes model. I'm going to try OpenSource model and see how it works on this market.

The source codes are not open yet but I updated the executable files with no obfuscated version. It is now much easier to restore all sources, but dont waste your time. Wait a bit and you will see all code lines I have written for this project. Not all code is perfect, but there are some very interesting solutions. 

Nice graffiti in downtown Toronto

Yesterday I took a walk in downtown Toronto and found this nice wall.

Sandra Bullock

I think Sandra Bullock is one of the best female comedy actor. He did a great job in The Proposal and Miss Congeniality. What I like most about Sandra is her ability to portray any character. She did well in one of the best drama of all time - Time to Kill.

She is pretty and she as a real actress. I believe Sandra Bullock can play in any kind of movie - comedy, romance, drama, action.

As of 2009, Bullock's films have grossed over $3.1 billion worldwide. Incredible. According to The Numbers, her total domestic gross stands at $1.7 billion, placing her among the Top 100 Stars at the Box Office

Free iPhone puzzle game

Yesterday I published a new version of my free iPhone puzzle game - 1st World Wide Wall Free. In version 1.1 I added new blocks like fence and brick wall. Fence and wall brick can be crashed only with a bomb. They work the same way, but brick wall has fixed position. It never moves or drops down.

To win the level you don't have to crash all brick walls. You may leave them on the board.

Any feedback is welcome.

Scarlett Johansson and The Avengers

Last week I saw The Avengers in 3D. I think it is the best movie from Marvel Studios. There are a lot of jokes and the movie itself is really funny. Actors are great, especially Scarlett Johansson, who looks fabulous after divorce.

I wander why there is no Black Widow movie. I know, most of superhero movies with women got almost nothing, but Scarlett Johansson could be the one, who can make most of us thrilled about her "acting" skills. 

You know, any movie can be interesting, when it is not boring. Most of Marvel's movies are very boring, especially women superhero movies. And that is a big mistake.
