NOTE: Wordpress update July 31, 2006

Posted by nitestrike in : NOTE , add a comment

Wordpress 2.0.4 has been released for download. Can’t be said any simpler than what was in the post, so hear it is.

This release contains several important security fixes, so it’s highly recommended for all users. We’ve also rolled in a number of bug fixes (over 50!), so it’s a pretty solid release across the board.

Make sure to spread the word if you or your friends use Wordpress.

Hopefully I’ll be able to put the new release through a little testing on the dev site and then roll it out live soon.

Eureka!!! July 29, 2006

Eureka (imdb), the new original series from the SciFi channel, is quirky with great dialog and plot potential. I found the show to be very engaging and kept my attention, which does not happen much, usually I work on my computer while I watch TV. It has a cast full of familiar faces to most, yet not easily recognizable, helping draw you into the characters. The character development and introduction have been good, but will hold out on judgment until I have been able to see a few more episodes. The series revolves around the town of Eureka, a quant little town out in the woods, who’s major employer is General Dynamics (GD) a research facilities of sorts. Thus far I have seen the two hour Pilot and Episode 1, and am looking forward to the new episode, Tuesday August 1st. You can catch the full pilot on the web at SciFi Pulse, or the link from the Eureka page.

I was also pleasantly surprised to see Matt Frewer, as Jim Taggart, a “biological containment specialist” Aussie, who has the tools to handle any situation. Frewer, best known for his dual roll in the TV show Max Headroom as Max Headroom and Edison Carter, has also stared in other sci-fi shows including Taken, PSI Factor, and Lawnmower Man 2.

Till Next time.

I have decided upon the Regulus Theme, created by Ben Gillbanks at Binary Moon. It has a clean simple design and looks good. I’ll be making more changes to the site over the next few weeks, or as time allows.
