Bad response time on my blog

I’m currently having some issues with my blog giving it bad response times. Seems like it caused by connection problems with the database (MySql). The error log have some errno=2013 errors, can’t understand that all my problems are caused by some timeout issues. Must continue investigating this…

16.04.08: Small update. Testing right now, the response time is as it should be, very good. Maybe my ISP have done some fixing without me being aware of it. Hopefully it will stay this way

17.04.08 00:21 Got an email from my ISP Hostean. They have cleaned up the server, and now my blog is yet again fast as Speedy Gonzales!!

Doing maintenance on the pram

After just two days of use one of the wheels on our Emmaljunga City Cross pram started to creak and did not run smoothly. I took one call to Kattis Babyshop in Sweden where we bought the pram and got instructions to use a 10 mm drill and with my hands only make the hole for the axle a bit bigger. The reason for this is that a certain production series of these prams have an error…to small holes in the wheel for the axle. I did as instructed, and it all turned out for the best, we are now able to go out with the pram again.

btw: I would have been provided with a new wheel if the problem had not been fixed.

Scary conditions at Furuset

Went to the dry cleaner earlier today at Furuset where I lived before. Outside the shopping mall I had to take a picture of the mob there, the Wheelchair Mob. Not sure whether they support the A or B gang, or maybe they are supporting a totally different gang. What I know is anyhow that they are bad! They curse, they smoke, they drive their electric wheel chairs at high speeds overtaking pedestrians at both sides…so be ware if ever going to Furuset!

How to create a private blog using b2evolution

I’ve just installed the latest version of B2evolution and now wanted to create a new private blog as well for friend and family only. To be able to do that I needed to be able to password protect the blog. This is not straight forward in B2 if you are not familiar with programming PHP. I would hope for that they make this a feature in backoffice in coming releases.

Anyhow, this post in the forum got me started

I needed to adjust the code a bit, so this is what I ended up with

if ( isset($blog) == “2” ) {
$login_required = true;
}
elseif (!isset($login_required)) {
$login_required = false;
}

At least because of how I have configured my blogs you will need to check if $blog is set, or else you will get an error.

In response

Both my father, my mother and Snypp has commented on the picture of me from last Sunday. I used my cell phone as a camera, and the quality is not very good. But Elin took a picture of me when I came home with our new camera. If they thought the first picture was horrible, take a look at this one 🙂

Changes!

On Monday at 22.01 our son Anders was born. He is named after his grandfather Anders. Everything went according to plan and we are both very proud 🙂

As the past two days I’m allowed a couple of hours at home to do my duty, meaning spinning in the basement. And yes, I’m very well aware of that Elin is amazing letting me do that, but most of all that confirms that Anders is well and we don’t have any problems what so ever other than what first time parents always have 😀

100k today in bad weather

Third outdoor training session with Rye this year. We meet at Hvervenbukta, started from there and went down to Son and back again. Cold, but ok weather until we came to Son where the rain started. With only about 4 celsius it became quite soon quite cold…but, what does not kill you only makes you stronger.
