So I found this great fee application called My Mobiler to use with your windows mobile phone or PDA. You plug in your device through your USB, and the screen pops up on your monitor. You can use your mouse and keyboard to run programs. I find it useful to quickly and easily check site designs in IE mobile and Opera Mobile.
First of all, this recipe is meant to be dabbled with. Consider it a canvas on which to work with. This recipe calls for my simple BBQ rub, which is just salt, pepper, and paprika. This recipe also requires a BBQ smoker. As with any kind of BBQ it also requires patience, so I’d reccomend starting this recipe shortly after you get your meat in the BBQ.

I’ve been using Twitter Tools for some time now and found it quite useful, however, a much simpler plugin is “Facebook/Twitter Status Updater.” It updates both twitter and Facebook, and it allows you to specify a different headline for the update, instead of just using the post title. Twitter tools also requires something to be appended to the beginning like “Blog Update:” and this plugin doesn’t.
Twitter Tools has many more advanced features for Twitter, but lacks the Facebook update. If all you want to do is update your blog, Twitter, and Facebook from one place, this is the plugin for.
The only drawback I can see is that if you’re logged into Facebook when you publish a post, you will be automatically logged out.
Change Attachment Parent allows you to edit the parent value of anything in the media library. Read the rest of this entry »
A couple weekends we stayed at the Comfort Inn in Kamloops. We’ve stayed there a few times before, mostly because it has a pool and waterslide which the kids love. However this was our fist stay on the second floor which has a “games room.” I’m not sure how I could have missed this gem before. Read the rest of this entry »
Sometimes a wordpress plugin is not the proper solution for an complex application. You might want something to work alongside wordpress instead. One of the nice features of Worpress is the user managament.

We went to Arigato Sushi in Kamloops this weekend. The food was great. I saw this on the menu and had to order it.
It was called the “Fire Roll.” It was a Dynamite roll topped with BBQ eel, sea cucumber, and flying fish roe. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, it’s surrounded by FLAMES!
The roll is in a little foil boat to protect it from the fuel (alchohol?) and fire. The flames wrap around the roll and heat up the eel on top. After a couple minutes the fire burns out and it’s good to go. The taste was amazing. The BBQ eel is hot but the roll is still cool.

You ever get an error like this from your feeds generated by Wordpress?
XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Location: http://www.yoursite.tld/utils/test.xml
Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
Somewhere along the line a new line was being placed before the XML declaration in the feeds. This caused an error to display in Firefox and other browsers instead of the feed. Read the rest of this entry »
