Proud parents Matt and Julie are doing great and loving life! Abbie is an awesome little girl and is making this parenting stuff look easy. Of course, we've only had one night so far - so I'm sure she'll get rowdy here pretty soon.
Julie woke me up at 5:30 this morning to say she'd been in labor since 3:00 a.m. She'd taken a shower and was heading out to get some donuts because she was very hungry. Her contractions were 10 minutes apart and he due date 4 days away (November 7th). So we went to King Sooper's, got some donuts and other goodies, and came back home. We both thought today was the day for sure. So Julie went to back to bed to rest up for the big event, and I packed the car. When she woke up 3 hours later, her contractions had died down to about one per hour. It's 5:00 p.m. now and we're heading out to dinner - but the enthusiasm has definitely died down. She talked me into painting the living room today and it doesn't look like we're going to have a birthday today. But you never know, those contractions could kick back in at any moment!
I'm in The Zone today and loving life. God this is fun! The music is cranked, the cat is scared and my body tingles every time something goes right. So I'm a "body buzz" about every 15 minutes. Who could ask for a better line of work!?
Vail posted this picture today on their website and mentioned:
With snow falling all night long Vail reports 13 inches of new snow at Mid-Vail and a 20 inch settled base!!!! This surpasses our record for snow on this date. THINK SNOW!!
Sweet, and I got my season pass today in the mail! This ski season is lookin' good awesome!
Did I mention that my ski pass is good at 5 mountains? Vail, Keystone, Breckenridge, Arapahoe Basin and Beaver Creek - all for $299!
I discovered yesterday that I have PHP installed on this server. Today I discovered Tiki. And I ask myself, "Are you looking for a good wiki, or a good java-based wiki?" If you've noticed Tiki's release date (1.0 Released Nov 28 2002), it appears to be ahead of it's time.
If you've read this thread or this story at The Server Side, you owe it to yourself to read Rickard's rebuttal.
In other news, Simon Stewart (no blog to my knowledge) has sent me the font I needed, and therefore iCal is working again. What a guy - thanks Simon!
This view is what we woke up to this morning. Julie cringed and moaned, while I yelled "yeeee haaawww!" It motivated me to buy my ski pass for this year and I can't wait for my first 9" day...
I doubt this will effect anyone, but this site might be down tonight for a few minutes. In case it doesn't come back, here's your warning.
There will be a brief outage at KGB Internet Solutions on some servers. We will be upgrading server memory on the server your web site is hosted on at approx. 0230 UTC. We will be forcing the web sites over to the backup server during this process, so the outages should only be for five or ten minutes while the secondary takes over, and then again when the primary takes over again after the upgrade.
I downloaded and installed the Sun ONE App Server 7 this morning (on WinXP). Install was about 100 times easier than they used to be. I actually became an expert at installing iPlanet because they asked you so many damn questions, and answering one wrong could screw up your whole installation. I must've installed iPlanet 2.1-6 over 200 times! Good to see that almost anyone can do it now. My first test was to see if the struts-example app ran properly. I'm happy to report it did - with no errors visible on the UI. This is the first Sun app server release that this is possible on. Here's what I had to do in the past to get Struts running on iPlanet. I did see two errors in the log file while running Struts though:
WARNING: Error: JAXP SAXParser property not recognized: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage
and
INFO: Processing a 'POST' for path '/saveSubscription' SEVERE: Database save java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission D:\Tools\Sun\AppServer7\domains\domain1\server1\ applications\j2ee-modules\struts-example_1\WEB-INF\database.xml.old delete)
I'm sure both of these could be easily fixed with a little digging. The admin UI is much better - now an HTML UI rather than a Swing UI - appears to be powered by JATO. Deploying was super-simple, browse for WAR file, click upload. I especially like the option to pre-compile all the JSPs.
In other news, I attemted to use an Atomz (free) search engine last night to index this site, and it appears I have too much to use the free (500 page) service. I might try it anyway, but here's my stats:
Your site is larger than the index size limits that our Express product allows.
...
It took 1 hour to crawl 2324 pages and index 510 pages containing 448497 words for a total of 52432830 bytes. 6112 word endings, 0 synonyms, and 3350 sound-alike words were included in the index.
It probably wouldn't take very long to learn, and it seems like a lot of folks like it. Is it worth it - a.k.a. will it get me more clients?
According to The FuzzyBlog!, Yahoo likes it. Read why Yahoo will use PHP over all other open source technologies. Personally, I think they chose PHP because they have the inventor working for them.
I think I'll pass on learning it at this time - I'm having to much fun with Java and all it's goodies.
