Escape from boredom

Just surfing around, I found one of my old teachers at YouTube, namely Harry Bjerkli. He is a very local country singer back home, but he sure knows his way around on the Internet.

The song is in Norwegian, so if you don’t understand my native language enjoy the tunes at least 🙂

Two days ago they our street was cleaned, surely a sign that spring is here. Some years ago they did it quite early, then winter came back with snow and the need for the sanding truck to start driving again…and then wash the streets yet again. Hopefully winter won’t return this year!

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!!

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.

Due to all the bad response to previous pictures…better now mum?

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!

Watching Store Studio where they talked about The Secret .
Kinda funny Thomas Hylland Eriksen versus Mira Craig. Mira, do what you do best, sing, do not try to involve yourself in a debate with people like Hylland Eriksen

…the Secret is not magic, it is something else, you have to believe in it, it is…something…

Qoute Mira

For some strange reason there are some people at the end of our street which have a fake white horse standing in their garden. Must have been a hell of a party the day it ended up there, but why on earth it has remained there for several years is still an unanswered question…

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.
