Alpha Numeric Sequences
January 25, 2012
This function allows numbers using any given sequence of numbers or characters. The purpose of this code was to allows us to create larger numbers for row ids in the database but using less number of characters, this might create a larger footprint in the database since the size of one character is 8bits, while an 8bit integers gives you 255 numbers.
in this case the allowed numbers/characters give a numbering system in base62.
this was handy when creating URLs that use the row ID so a quick lookup in the database could be made without a conversion of bases. did not have the conversion functions when originally wrote it, but added them here.

and big mac was missing pickles, sesame seed bun. also used caramelized onions instead of raw onions.

I recently updated the Ultimate Post Type Manager plugin. It is a great plugin that allows you to add new post types and add custom fields.
you can download it here:

The plugin works great if you install it as a new plugin. However if you're updating the plugin from an older version somethings might not work.
bacon wrapped poutine stuffed chicken

There were some chicken thighs in the fridge and decided to make this. Originally wanted to stuff with cheese and spinach, but didn't have any (found out later we did). top with cheese and gravy you can't go wrong.

Someone said I should try this a few days ago, so I had this for breakfast today. Maple flavoured bacon and peanut butter sandwich. Nice combination of sweet and salty.
