Yesterday I was studying
At the networking session for LHH yesterday
Last night at the .NET User group
Jesus taught,
Be connected.
JSP (Java Server Pages) examples
.
It looks a lot like Ruby on Rails and PHP stuff.
I found out that two more people landed jobs.
Yes!
They both start on Monday August 3.
God bless them and their families.
Off they go.
Jeff talked about the
Visual Studio Team System 2010
.
There is a lot to learn.
Here is the
Beta
if you want to try it out.
It looked very useful.
They talked about branches in software development
and then merging the branches.
I've never done that before.
Different people work on different branches
and they you put it back together in a central place.
There are automated tests to see that
things still are working.
"I am the true vine
and my Father is the vinegrower.
He prunes away every barren branch,
but the fruitful ones he trims clean
to increase their yield."
John 15:1-2
Stay connected.
Jesus is the source of your energy.
Jesus, you are all that we need.
Help us to stay near to you always.

I'm jumping around in books lately.
Yesterday I loaded
Tomcat 6

I also looked at FlowLayouts, BorderLayouts and GridLayouts
Jesus said to Pilate,
Jesus is the truth.
I needed it to do Java servlets
for chapter 21 in the book
Java 2 in 21 Days
.
I got it working.
Success.
Servlets are like PHP, Ruby on Rails and ASP.NET.
They all create dynamic HTML pages.
in chapter 11 (entry 11.17) of the book
Java How To Program
.
"The reason I was born,
the reason why I came into the world
is to testify to the truth.
Anyone committed to the truth hears my voice."
John 18:37
He came to tell us the truth.
Read his words.
Hear his voice.

I was studying the Ruby on Rails book yesterday.
Yesterday I made a trip to pick up a relative
"As Jesus was getting into the boat,
Jesus is amazing.
I'm skipping around since I studied Ruby online last week.
In chapter 5 the examples did not work
since a newer version of Ruby and Rails was on my computer.
The book was written in 2007 and
things have already been eliminated from the computer language.
For example the

the man who had been possessed
was pressing to accompany him.
Jesus did not grant his request,
but told him instead:
'Go home to your family and
make it clear to them
how much the Lord in his mercy
has done for you.'
At that the man went off and
began to proclaim throughout the Ten Cities
what Jesus had done for him.
They were all amazed at what they heard."
Mark 5:18-20
Tell others in your city about him.
Let them know the power of God to heal.
Jesus, come and heal your people.
Touch them.
(July 28, 2009 Tue 6:13 AM)
The book
Beginning Ruby on Rails
arrived yesterday.
Jesus said,
Look in the mirror.
I started to read it last night.
"If you want to avoid judgment,
stop passing judgment.
Your verdict on others
will be the verdict passed on you.
The measure with which you measure
will be used to measure you."
Matthew 7:1-2
Don't look at others.
Check yourself.
Jesus, have mercy on my soul.
Forgive my sins.
Help me to be your child.
Help me to be faithful.

It works great.

the Jews were looking for Jesus, asking,
'Where is that troublemaker?'
Among the crowds there was
much guarded debate about him.
Some maintained,
'He is a good man,'
while others kept saying,
'Not at all ---
he is only misleading the crowd!'"

Is he just a good man?
Is he God?

that someone wrote on
Ruby
.
It is bizarre.
It is strange.
It is mostly science fiction
and a little technical information on Ruby.
Whatever I learn I learn.
Ruby was created in Japan by Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto.
It is a lot like Perl.
It even has a "===" triple equal sign like PHP does.
For example in Ruby "If 2001..2004 === year" says
to check for the years 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004.
"I have come to light a fire on the earth.
How I wish the blaze were ignited!
I have a baptism to receive.
What anguish I feel till it is over!"

He made waves.
He taught people to love their enemies.

I tried to bing/google some of these things as he talked.

I have 3 more tests to take.
Some of the questions are tricky.
They like Roman numerals for some reason

Why?
Why not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5?
It drives you crazy sometimes.
