Army of Two - Exactly what the title says - Two player game where you can go Rambo, or be as covert as you like - to a certain degree.

The game is very linear, you cannot deviate from the story very much, or take your own path to complete the mission, but it's not so bad. The maps are fairly big, so you can approach the enemy from different angles to use different tactics.

The concept of a two player game like this was a lot of fun, and there were a lot of 'bonding' moment - playing it with my brother. But him being the sharpshooter that he is with FPS games, there were times when he got frustrated at me because i couldn't pull my weight.

I've had quite a lot of people contact me asking where my photography portfolio was. I've been posting lots about my new gear, and new found websites, but no proof that I'm actually doing something.

So here's the response to all of you:

With school and work keeping me busy, I've barely had time to go through all my photo shoots and send the clients their proofs.

But to be completely honest, I have a portfolio, I have about 4 different proof of concepts ready to go… but I'm not happy with any of them. I'll start working on one idea, get about 50% through creating it, and when I wake up the next day, I'll find a ton of things wrong with it. Colour, style, layout… you name it.

Browser War - IE, Firefox, Safari, OperaFor the past few months, I have not been happy with her performance of any of the web-browsers I’ve tried. As more and more sites become Flash, and JavaScript oriented – ala Web 2.0 – the browsers have to adapt to run those at optimum performance.

As we religiously observed Earth Hour at the Bhadha residence, I thought I'd go for a walk around the neighborhood and see how other people were doing. We turned off the computers, TV, all the lights and had dinner by the candle light.

It was a fairly cold night, so I didn't get a chance to go very far, but from the observations that I did make, I wasn't surprised at the results.

For about 3 years I've been using SmartFTP. Very clean, simple, low resource consumption, and not to mention - FREE!!!

DLink-524 The used DLink 524 that I picked up from usedOttawa for $30 dollars is a pretty good buy. Having used this model before, I knew it was reliable. Decent wireless connectivity, along with all the other regular features like filtering, encryption, VPN and activity logging.

Setting up is a breeze, just plug and play.

One problem that I ran into was of setting up the SSID and enabling wireless encryption.
