This year is not like the past ones, today I had my first bike ride, 5 months later than for instance last year. But, what is better is the weather when riding the bike in May than in January.

A quick stop overlooking Maridalsvatnet.

Smooth and easy as always, now running 4.1.7, mainly a security patch.

The naumachia (in Latin naumachia, from the Ancient Greek ναυμαχία/naumachía, literally "naval combat") in the Ancient Roman world referred to both the staging of naval battles as mass entertainment and the basin (or more broadly, the complex) in which this took place....

Or what about diving horses?

More to learn if you listen to Sirkus at Radio Nova

I started to get preeettyyy annoyed by the bad performance of my blog. Did some research and decided just give the two lines a try in the .htaccess file

Code:

And, damn! It seems to work immediately and provide a major performance improvement. Why have I not done this before?

@Update:

Also added

Code:

Just now I still have some performance issues, but I suspect that to be caused by the database server struggling, not the web server.

Yesterday, spinning to Noah And The Whale

While writing this I found a review of the album saying

. I gave it three out of ten for the first two songs and the last one. All the music inbetween is aimed at 12-15 year old girls. I thought I was listening to the best of Australian Idol. Songs have no depth and are aim at a quick buck!!

Utter crap and is the worst album of my collection. The only positive is that I also bought the new strokes album which is gold.

I do no think it was that bad, meaning, it was easy listening, but I must admit that I got a bit annoyed of the lyrics. And that does not happen often, me paying attention to the lyrics.

Yesterday, spinning to two albums - first Wannskrækk and the album Riff (1980 - 1985). Good one, get better at the end as well, which is good when listening to it while spinning.

Then Kung Fu Girls and their album This is the Kung Fu Beat. Good one!

I was not aware of this tool, the SnippingTool. After spending years using MsPaint when taking screenshots, I have now turned advanced.

Found the album on the newly released list on Wimp, needed an album that did not last for more than about 30 minutes, spot on. Have heard of them before, did not remember that I had heard them, not my cup of tea.

While reviewing a SystemOut.log-file created by WebSphere I needed to remove all lines containing "SystemOut". Luckily I have installed Cygwin, so Perl to the rescue. Found this Q&A at StackOverflow.

Ended up with

perl -ni.bak -e 'print unless m!^.*SystemOut.*!' SystemOut.log

Original file > 80.000 lines, resultfile 195 lines...a bit easier to read...

Me and the boys up at Haugerud Senter on the 1'st of May, standing on the bridge cheering at Rye Tempoen passing by, Jan Henrik is somewhere in the picture, so we shouted "Heia Rye, heia Jan Henrik!"
