::New England Metal And Hardcore Festival::
AHHHHHHHHH

Crash again…

“Again”:http://apoc.buildtolearn.net/wordpress/2006/02/14/server-crash/
this time it was only the mysql server, but it still rendered my site nicely useless…
can’t quite bring myself to go the paid route though… maybe after college?
I have that nice “mt”:http://mt.middlebury.edu/middblogs/alex/writing/ blog anyways, which I’ll be using mainly for now… though I suppose links and such will still be showing up here.

I just wrote a review for Beyond Twilight’s latest release, “Section X” for the new music magazine here on campus, Mon de Greene. What a fantastic album, gave it an A… truly superb progressive metal even with some temperamental vocalists… Makes me excited to play the keyboard too :)

News Briefs

I’ll comment later, for now here are a few interesting articles on the evolving Cartoon Chaos, as well as one about Japan’s push for reducing energy use.

Anatomy of the Cartoon Protest Movement
Japanese Putting All Their Energy Into Saving Fuel

Oh, and a neo-fascist footballer? ugh…
BBC NEWS | Europe | Nazi deportees speak to Di Canio

EDIT: More on the cartoons:

AMMAN, Jordan, Feb. 21 — In a direct challenge to the international uproar over cartoons lampooning the Prophet Muhammad, the Jordanian journalist Jihad Momani wrote: “What brings more prejudice against Islam, these caricatures or pictures of a hostage-taker slashing the throat of his victim in front of the cameras, or a suicide bomber who blows himself up during a wedding ceremony?”

BLAH BLAH BLAAAAH

Upgrade to Wordpress 2.0.1 Successful

Hooray!
I have just finished upgrading Apoctrack to the latest version of wordpress. Instructions for upgrading an existing wordpress installation are available here and make the process extremely easy.

Ooooh, new admin interface… so sexy!

Keep yer eyes open for a deluge of new content as I begin my EL170 Intro to Creative Writing class with B. Ganley, a big supporter of blogging-for-credit… Though I’ll probably start a movable type blog on the school server for assignments and such things, but I’ll keep this one going too. Also, I’ll hopefully be updating the template here soon to make things a bit more clean and pretty. Who knows, maybe it’s even time for a theme change? Those blogger are so nice and clean, it’s refreshing…

Edit: Theme changed after much deliberation :)… who knows how long it’ll last!?

Server Crash

Hello everyone!
Sorry about the downtime, first the web server was down, then the mysql server was down and I feared for the loss of all my entries…!!!
I pledge to backup more often, now I see the light!

However, still looking for a paid host to make things more legit and reliable, I mean why not?

My radio show will be starting up again in about a week, new time TBA…
Ciao for now,
A
