PHP References Article
The June 2005 issue of php|architect published an article on "References in PHP". The article explains in detail how variables exactly work in PHP, in a hopefully clear text and with diagrams.
The magazine kindly allowed me to publish a PDF of this article on my site so that it can reach a greater audience. You can find the PDF here .

That's a little freaky - in Firefox on my system, it starts to load, then jumps over to the php|a page talking about the print edition...
It seems that the whole image on the first page has an HTML link to that page... Just don't click on it and you will be fine :)
It's pretty hard to get ones hands on internal architecture documentation when usage documentation is so abundent.
Thank you!
What good is it to have a tool and not know what it does. So many PHP books I have read skip on the important technical parts. Thank you Derick for helping me to understand PHP references.
Cheers!

As I said yesterday, I never saw a Kingfisher hovering, but here is (some slightly blurry) evidence of one doing so.

Kingfisher Caught Its Lunch
This lovely chap caught a fish right in front of us, after hovering for a while.
It seemed pleased with itself, and instead of flying away to feed it to its kids, it ate it.

Looking at my photos from RSPB Rye Meads from yesterday, and literally the first one is of a Kingfisher projectile-pooing.
Such glamorous birds :-D Luckily, better photos were taken, and I'll share those soon.
I walked 11.1km in 2h5m53s
TIL that Kingfishers can hover just like hummingbird. I'll hopefully have some reasonable shots after I've gone through my nearly thousand shots today...

I think this was my favourite photo of the set that I took. It's not at maximum coverage, but it does have a sun spot group (4508) just on the cusp of the terminator.

No totality here in London, but still had a great evening out in the local park and taking some snaps.
I did have a nice Solar Filter that I made for my lens, and had many conversations with people from different backgrounds. Kids loves to look through my filter after I was done (ran out of battery power).
More photos later...
