Alone (Dec 15 2004 03:21 GMT) - AloneAlone inside this hallow heart, I am alone.There is no one beside this shallow heart, for I am alone.The fault is my own, I am only to blame, and I am alone.In my stupidity I bleed precious life secrets. Meant to be kept inside, never meant to be heard from my lips alone. |

WWR - Interview With Talkeetna, Alaska Musician Steve Durr (Recorded August 25th, 2004) (Dec 15 2004 03:21 GMT) - I'm sitting here lamenting the snow and cold and getting the winter blues. Listening to this interview with local singer-songwriter Steve Durr from last August (with Esther Golton interviewing) seemed to help. Steve's seen a lot of Alaskan winters and survived them all. If you've ever dreamed of moving to the Alaskan wilderness and leaving modern society and roads behind, Steve's been there, done that. He tells some great stories about how Talkeetna used to be and how it was (and is) living "up the tracks". |

"Microsoft Access: Upgrading and Migrating to SQL Server and .NET" - Melbourne, December 2004 (Dec 15 2004 03:20 GMT) - A brief bit of history - we switched our internal reporting over to MS Reporting Services after seeing the product in action (albeit in beta form) December last year. Gradually we're in the process of moving Access databases, Excel reports (on file shares, e-mail and Exchange Public Folders), rich-text e-mails and the odd VB front-end over to SQL Server back-ends, Reporting Services for reports, and Windows Forms (VB.NET) for the front-end. I personally have had experience moving over 3 or 4 such projects, and my two co-workers have not had any experience (some of their legacy systems are still in Access 97). I reckon there's enough migrations to keep us busy all next year! |
