After lots of thought and consultation with people (Thanks Olwen and Mason)
Ive managed to finally get some data out of a legacy library system in a
usable format. So to celebrate it, I had some utterly delicious venison
chorizo. So far they have jumped to the lead as the best sausages ive had.
Followed closely by the cheese Kransky’s I had the other day.

The supervisor from Hell
So Ive never met this guy Ellio. But he sounds like a complete and utter
arsehat. Hes a supervisor of what I guess is a construction crew and today
he kicked (on purpose) a hammer off the 12th story which landed on someone on
the 8th. Retarded you ask ?? Well thats not the best part, the other day
while checking out his tattoo instead of concentrating he hit someone with
700 pounds of steel and concrete he was moving with a hoist.
Complete and utter moron you ask??
It seems to me the answer is yes.
Revenge of the Sith.
Its been said before, but please please please if there is a God don’t let George Lucas ever write any dialogue ever again. Seriously.
The effects were great, the soundtrack was excellent, the plot was iffy and the dialogue was positively awful. DragonballZ has better dialogue and most of that is just ‘heeaawrghh’ and ‘gnnnooargh’. Best of the three new movies, but could have been so much better
Koha 2.4 Release manager appointed
In the largest Koha irc meeting to date, Joshua was appointed the release
manager for the next stable branch of Koha.
Bugfixes and small feature improvements will continue on the 2.2 branch,
with 2.2.3 due to be released in a week or two.
You can read the full logs of the meeting here.
And view the todo list for 2.4 here. Lots of
interesting features and improvements planned.
As always we would love more volunteers to work on Koha, not just
programmers but documentation writers, designers, htmlers, translators, etc.
No offers of help turned down 🙂

Torture this fool
According to an article on stuff. A
couple of australian academics have put forward the argument that “Torture
should be legalised and is a “morally defensible” interrogation method, even
if it causes the death of innocent people”.
That it comes from Australians seems about right, since they deport their
own citizens, or put them in detention centers. I can only think that they
had a desire for publicity and followed the tried and true “Spout
reprehensible bullshit” method.
Im fairly sure that I saw them both talking to Osama bin Laden though, so
they should be arrested and tortured since according to their argument it wont
matter if they are actually innocent. “And if that unfortunately resulted in
an innocent person being killed, in those circumstances that would be
justified. I think as a society we would accept that one person being killed
to save thousands is legitimate.”
I for one volunteer to accept on behalf of society if someone was to torture
these people a bit. Just a little bit, maybe cut off a couple of fingers and
a toe. After all they must be guilty of something.
Koha Circulation using Curses::UI
Today I had a play making a circulation programme using Curses::UI. It was
pretty easy and I have a rudimentary programme that will know Issue and
Return.
Ive committed the code to CVS .. its by no means finished yet and I hope to
get time to keep working on it. Screenshots are here.

In Good Company
Hmmmm, watchable I guess best sums up this movie. Nothing special, but not
horrendously cheesy either. Was less humourous than I had hoped but not bad
overall.
Kingdom of Heaven
Okish .. some good action scenes, pretty crap plot, and some average action.But quite fun to watch on the big screen.
Kransky at Eva Dixon’s Cafe
The highlight of this meal was actually the plum sauce and the mahsed potato
with mustard seeds. Having said this the Kransky’s itself were not too bad
at all, perhaps a little bland.
I love Jello Lemon Pudding
Ive found my new favourite instant dessert thingy.
