Afterglow – INXS
Apr 4, 2007 Lyrics
I was recently introduced to this song by INXS called “Afterglow”. I really enjoyed this song a lot, love the music, the lyrics, etc. Thought I’d put the lyrics up on the blog and suggest it to those who haven’t heard it yet. The song is from their album Switch (2005)
Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses
It’s you and the roses
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes
Now I’m living in your afterglow
Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who wants tomorrow?
In between the longing to hold you again
I’m caught in your shadow, I’m losing control
My mind drifts away, we only have today
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way
I will sacrifice ’til the blinding day when I see your eyes
Now I’m living in your afterglow
When the faith has gone as I let you go, as I let you go
Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go I will find my way, I will sacrifice
Now I’m living in your afterglow
Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses
It’s you who is closest
Scribus – Page Numbering
Apr 2, 2007 Linux, techno-babble
So I have been working with Scribus for the last few days for a project at work. Being on Linux, I always look for software that let me do what needs to be done that are opensource, Scribus ended up being the perfect desktop publishing solution that works on Linux. If you are looking for Desktop publishing solution, Scribus can do the job for you and if I’m not mistaken, it works on multiple operating systems (including Windows). Now my advice is that if you are going for Scribus, make sure you go for the latest version, even though it is from their nightly developped version, you are more likely to have better functions, more functions and a stable version if you do that. I am currently using 1.3.3.6 and I think a better version is out already. In any case, the post is to help with the page-numbering issue.
So I made my little booklet and realized that my page numbers were showing up wrong, after 10 or so pages, I started getting 1-2-3-4 repeated all over! What’s wrong? Apparently, you need to tell Scribus that you want more than 10 pages. So on my master template, where I had put up a # sign to indicate I want the page number to come there, I had to put up ## signs for pages more than 20. Simple solution, weird behaviour.
Thought I’d share this with the world.
