Fixing my Kanji Input for Wordpress 日本語英語なおします.
Posted in HowTo on 22. Feb, 2010
I was having problem with my wordpress, i could not write or see にほんご(Japanese) in my blog. All the Japanese characters show up as “????” instead of 日本語.
I was going mental trying to fix this looking at all the code. After googling and found some answers, actually it has to do with the sql database collation setting. To display Japanese properly, the recommended setting should be ‘utf8_general_ci’.
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8_general_ci');
/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

Since I left Apple (Ex Genius) I have been doing a lot of Freelance work in my many fields of expertise. The hardest part of this style of business is not excepting credit cards. I have looked at several solutions like iSwipe from AppNinjas to many of the other 30+ possibilities in the iTunes App Store. Nothing really popped my socks except for iSwipe ( @ $1.99 it is actually the cheapest option) and that really wasn’t trippin’ the lights fantastic for me.
Then the was the reveal for the handy devices at the local Apple Retail Stores. This was getting a little bit closer. A few weeks ago I heard of the Mophie option coming soon Now I’m excited. this is looking promising.
Well today my homeboy Kevin Rose dropped a big bomb on the situation (see the video). Squareup.com now has the solution I will for sure get. This is not only sleek and elegant it was made for people like me. I have been a follower of Kevin and his adventures since “Follower” was an internet related word and Kevin was the new kid on TechTV’s call for help with Leo Laporte.
I think you have gotta see this baby in action, so Square please send me one asap, poppa needs to buy some new shoes.
PimpZen: Step Into The Risk Of The Visionary

We are fast approaching the time of year where we all tend to get a little stressed. The annual end of year boiling cauldron of “I got to get this mess straightened out, done, started or paid off”.
We also tend to get ill this time of year and for years we have blamed it on the colds, flu and now thanks to some major “Red Herringness” the swine flu. Truth is most seasonal illnesses are caused from stress and fear. Both are known to lower your body’s resistance to common illnesses.
It is time for all us us to Step Into The Risk Of The Visionary. Simply put you have to be willing to identify with a successful outcome before you even have any idea of how to get there. The guts to know your are gonna make it and make it in a big way. Yeah I know you all read “The Secret” and other “Law of Attraction” book if not they will help you understand this not so secret way of getting things done.
If you see your self winning you will have the sudden ability to brainstorm all the things you need to make your endgame happen.
I personally use Mind Mapping and List. After you make yourself a goal.. let’s say get shopping done early and cheap… you will all of a sudden start thinking of gifts for people and of good cheap ones. Write this down ASAP spend about 15 mins just letting it flow. The Names, Stores, Gifts, Sizes, Color, Cards will all just pop into your head like LSD trips from the sixties. Me secret is just let it all flow with no specific order and then make the logical list after your done.
This example will work for any end of year task not just shopping.
Leave me some comments, questions or feedback of how this works for you or if you have a better way.
#Aloha

Some who name finances as the leading cause of stress cite major purchases they have to make, such as a home or car. Others are stressed by a loss of income, or mounting credit card debt. For some, financial stress will eventuate in bankruptcy. While college students stress over paying for an education, Baby Boomers and older senior citizens find that retirement income can be a major cause of stress. This madness has to stop now.
