More comments in WordPress 2.1.2

I noticed the other day that after upgrading to WordPress 2.1.2, many of the ads that the AdSense-Deluxe plugin was adding were not getting really getting added.
Normally I add the necessary AdSense-Deluxe (ASD) code immediately after the 'more' comment. However, if I changed the location of the ASD code, the ads displayed correctly. Eh?

With summer right around the corner, I've been looking at solar powered fans, especially after seeing an episode of Ask This Old House where they installed an attic fan.

Pink mice and Hank
I frequently find myself in an argument that to many appears to be one of splitting hairs. That is the discussion of atheism, that I am atheist, not AN atheist.

I've applied a new style today to this part of the site. The old style had been used for quite a long while, and it was definitely time for a change.
Installing Apache 2.2.4 to a Windows-based computer, locally: Part 1
- March 17, 2007
- James Skemp
In February 2006, I wrote an article covering the installation of Apache 1.3.34, which can be found on my site, StrivingLife.net. In August 2006, I covered the installation of Apache 2.0.59. This time, I'll be covering the installation of the current version of Apache 2.2.x, Apache 2.2.4, to a Windows XP machine, for the purpose of local development.
While I'll be covering an installation of Apache 2.2.4 that will work along with Apache 1.3.x and Apache 2.0.x, this guide will work equally well if you're installing Apache 2.2.x by itself.

I've got Google alerting me to a number of search words of relevance to me; my domain names, my name, etcetera. Unfortunately, as has happened before, a site using pieces of my content showed up in Google's results for one of my phrases.
Yikes.

The major failing of Akismet ...
- February 25, 2007
- James Skemp
The major failing of the Akismet plug-in is that you can't determine which IPs, if any, are spamming your site the most.
Akismet needs to have the ability to group by IP, as well as show counts for each IP.
