Iniquity Houston Club Photos and Review

Jul 28, 2008 by Paul White

When you pull up to Iniquity Houston, the first thing you will notice is the Giant Q above the entry.  Valet Parking is there ready to serve you, along with a shared parking lot accross the street if you would rather self park.  Before you make plans to attend this venue, just know this.  The place is a BYOB couples club.  Meaning if you plan on going, you must bring your own alcohol.  You can then buy Mixers ( coke, Juice, water ) from the bar tenders.  Also if you are a single guy, you will need to bring a female date.  Single Ladies of course are always encouraged to come out. I have include a few pictures of the club. Enjoy

Awesome AS3 tutorial

Jul 9, 2008 by Paul White

Today as I was searching the web for tutorials on Flash AS3. I came across a very nice tutorial.  This tutorial helps explain some of the main differences between AS1, AS2 and AS3.  Thus far I am liking AS3, but it does have a steep learning curve.  In AS1 and AS2 the language was very simple. It didn't require a lot of code to do anything. Even graphic designers who traditionally curse at the thought of coding were able to understand how to use flash.  AS3 is written for the hardcore programmer in mind.  This is good because it gives you more control over things, but the result is you write alot more code.   I tend to learn better from examples.  I see code formatted in a particular way. I see what is does, then I make changes to it, and see how it affects the results.  Learning how to Code with the new AS3 is like moving into a new big city.  After a while you get a logical feel for where everything is, and how to get from point A to point B.  This guy did an awesome job explaining AS3 in words and examples I understand.  Check it out!

What is Cache

Jul 5, 2008 by Paul White

Recently one of my clients asked me this question.  Rather than getting into a detailed discussion of how the internals of a computer works, I made an analogy to help my client understand what cache is and what it does.  To hear my full analogy and a little history on cache read this entry.

Using Caching to make your ASP.NET website more scalable

Jul 3, 2008 by Paul White

If you make dozens of SQL queries within a single webpage this is not the most scalable way to build a website.  ASP.NET supports Caching, allowing you to store information directly in the server's memory.  Here I give you a little information on caching and how to use it to make your websites load faster.

Getting back into Flash with AS3

Jul 2, 2008 by Paul White

Its been a while since I have played around with flash.  I am finally getting around to building a new portfolio website for whitesites.com.  The current one gets the job done, but my potential clients aren't really given any taste of my flash skills.  Even though my current skill set could help build a very nice website, there are few things I specifically wanted to utilize in my new website.  The main one being the use of 3D.   Flash as a stand alone package does not support 3D.  If you want 3D you are left to program your own 3D engine using actionscript.  If you aren't a fan of Trig it could cause you some stress.  Thankfully there is an open source class called Sandy 3D, designed to run on Flash AS2 and AS3.  This gives developers a very easy way to integrating 3D into their Flash Apps.  Since AS3 is the latest and greatest to come out of Adobe, I will put my focus on catching up to learn it.  AS3 is a true Object Oriented Programming Language.  I am used to working with alot of C# in my asp.net Apps, so learning AS3 should be that bad.  But considering how intense it could be, I might actually buy a book on the subject.
