Chin National Day 2007, Hakha

Here is the video I took of Chin National Day 2007 in Hakha, Chin State. This one is the ceremony to honor the maiden who has been chosen by the Saw-bwa. Don't take it wrong. There is no Saw-bwa in Chin Hills now but this ceremony is a replica of the ancient tradition.

How to insert images and pictures in Gmail

Gmail is cool, really cool and I use it as my primary mail. I used to use other emails before but now I use gmail as my sole email. I even assess my office pop mail using gmail's pop collector. However, there are a few things that I like to see in gmail. 1. You cannot insert images and pictures into gmail message. You can send them as an attachment but you cannot insert them into the message body. 2. You cannot format the message using html. That is too bad. OK, they are too bad but you can still do these, and it is not difficult. Very easy indeed. To so these, first, open a google document. Write your message with message in it.

Under the rain in Chin State

It is raining all day, almost everyday. The roads become quite wet and muddy. I am really traped inside now. It is inconvenient to go out in the rain. Whenever it rains in Chin state, the temperature drops dramatically, and it becomes very cold. And the wind also blows quite strong. The sound of wind blowing through the pine tree is so loud and terrifying. And the thick fog reduces visibility to almost zero. Everything becomes quite gloomy. In this small little town in Chin State, in the heavy rain and thick fog, I am traped indoor. Although I want to go out and take photos, this sad weather doesn't let me do what I want to do.

If the rain doesn't stop in a few day, I think I will wrap myself in a big blanket li...

How to install Let's Encrypt free SSL certificate on NameCheap web hosting

Image
I use NameCheap for hosting my websites. It's cheap, support is suburb and its reliable. The server is also very fast. The only downside is that they don't support Let's Encrypt SSL. You can actually install the Let's Encrypt certificate on the NameCheap server. It's just not automatically installed. You will need to manually install the certificate, which might be challenging for some people.  I've written a detailed tutorial on how to install the Let's Encrypt certificate manually on the NameCheap server. You can read the whole tutorial at my other blog Tiny Tech Notes - How to install Let’s Encrypt manually on NameCheap . The tutorial will work not only on NameCheap but also on any web host with cPanel. Or any web hosting as long as you know how to upload files to the root folder and add TXT DNS records.
