EMovies Will No Longer be Supported
by FrosT

Well it has been a long ride for EMovies, which was first developed for better Search Engine Optimization for my sites. However, Yahoo has changed their whole site design and instead of re-coding EMovies I am canning the project. This is mostly due to lack of support. It is extremely sad how people will just use software, which I was giving free help to many people via email, and in return offer you nothing, not even a small donation.

Well this is dis-heartening to me, but with as much time as it would take to fix the EMovies and without any support or funding, I am not going to continue this project. Maybe one day I will be bored and re-make it for the new Yahoo Movies, but that is very unlikely.

Thank you for understanding. Have a great day.

jim Switching to T-Mobile from AT&T Feb 18th, 2009 4:47:33 pm - Subscribe
Well hello everyone (which I know is not many people)! Long time no blog.

Today's entry is about switching from AT&T to T-Mobile! First let's start off with my history. I was originally on Sprint, which had crappy reception, but great service. I actually miss Sprint, they were great at dropped call refunds etc.

Now Lyndsey showed me an article that was probably on Oprah about saving money. How switching to a "Pay as you Go" plan can save you money cause you only pay for the minutes you use. This seemed like a great idea. I did some calculations between ending AT&T's contract (cancellation fees) and starting up T-Mobile with $100/phone. I figured as long as we keep under 1,000 minutes every 4 months we are coming out about $300/year ahead on the phones.

Since we have wanted to get a new home phone, we decided that we will get the new home phone, use that over our cellphones and then use the cellphones for more of "emergency" situations. So far today I have used 1 minute on my phone to check voicemail. This seems like a great deal as the 1,000 minutes last for 1 year.

Let me explain why I did not just use AT&T's pay as you go (As their network coverage is awesome). The main reason why was the pay as you go rate was pretty steep, .25 cents a minute or $1/day used and 10 cents a minute. I do not like the $1/day idea, due to the fact that it can add up to be a bit more than I bargained for. Where as T-Mobile had a similiar setup, except the non-$1/day plan was 10 cents a minute if you buy 1,000 minutes and the minutes do not expire for a year.

Hmmm? Which would you choose? So I spent all night the other night unlocking our w580i Sony Ericsson phone so we would not need to buy new phones. This took a while, but worked great. Unlocking the phones were very easy with multiple tutorials online. (This also debranded the phone which was an added bonus).

Now we are on a "Pay as you Go" plan and are hoping that in the long run this will save us money. As we are going to use our cell-phones more for emergency usage as appose to convenience/daily use. For our home phone we went with Vonage as my Wife's mom has it and it seems to work great for a good price, $30/month unlimited long distance and Voicemails sent to email! Plus the first month and hardware was free.

So far it seems to be working great, now we just have to get our family and friends in the habit of calling the homephone first before our cell phones and we are in good shape.

I will update in a few months on how this worked out for us. And as always:

Thanks for Reading,
Jim

frost MySQL Database Backup .MYI and .MYD Feb 1st, 2009 3:40:21 pm - Subscribe
MySQL Database Backup .MYI and .MYD

Introduction
Hello everyone!

Long time no post, I know. Well really I have been busy with work, a wife and a new baby being on the way. Well anyways, this article is about how to restore a backup to MySQL from a .MYI and .MYD file that you may have. Our dedicated host backs up only these files and does not use the mysqldump utility to create a full SQL backup of our database. This is fine, but makes a bit extra work. So let us get started.

Determine Your Version
First we need to determine the version of your server's MySQL database. Mine was 3.23, old I know. I do not know if you can mix and match .MYD files so I just downloaded that and installed it on my local computer. I would suggest doing the same, this way you are messing with copies of the actual database instead of the real thing.

Creating a Database
Now we want to go into the MySQL console on your computer and create a new database, this database name can be anything. For this tutorial sake I will use "backup". Now that you have created a database "backup" it is time to get the table structure from your current database. The table structure is necessary for this process, if you do not know or do not have it, I am not sure if this will work for you. Try anyway you can.

Lucky for me, I was just trying to get a user's data back whose entries were accidentally deleted. So I had my full table structure online and just did a phpMyAdmin Export of the table structure and ran that through my personal computers MySQL command line tool. This creates 3 files inside of c:\mysql\data\backup a .frm, .myi and .myd. This is exactly what we want!

Restoring the Actual Files
Now what we are able to do is copy only the .MYI and .MYD files from your backup and paste them into the c:\mysql\data\backup directory overwriting any files that are in there. This will basically put our data into those tables.

To test that the data was input successfully, open the MySQL command line tool and use the database "backup" and do a "select * from `yourtablenamehere` LIMIT 1" If no results are returned then it did not work, try restarting your MySQL server and then try again, this generally works. If not, then post a comment and I will try and help you out.

If that worked, you now have a working backup of your database! Now to export this data.

Export the Backup Data
Exporting the data is rather easy. Just use the mysqldump tool and run a command like this to get all that data into a SQL statement you can import into your current DB via phpMyAdmin:

mysqldump -uroot desk yourtablenamehere > yourtablename.sql

This is assuming the user is root with no password (the reason I do not set a password was this is strictly on my localhost and I have a firewall setup to block all external connections to MySQL). You can replace any of that with the user information you use. That should now create a file yourtablename.sql with all of the SQL. This may have a create table at the top of the file, so manually edit the file and remove that portion to avoid any errors when trying to import via phpMyAdmin.

Now just copy that text file or upload it to your phpMyAdmin and that data should be re-inserted and you are up and running again!

Ending Notes
This tutorial was made to backup minimal data for a user, what I really did was ran a sql command to only pull at that user data and create a new able with it. To do that also just do this:

create table yourtablenamebup SELECT * FROM yourtablename WHERE conidtion=something

Then you can just do a dump of that table and have just the information you need and not every information!

This tutorial is meant as a reference, be sure to backup all data before attempting it as I am not responsible for any lost/corrupted data for mis-use or use of this tutorial. This tutorial as worked for me many times in the past following those instructions.

Please use at your own risk!

aeonity Slashes Bug Fix Jan 26th, 2009 12:52:33 pm - Subscribe
Hello everyone,

We had a recent issue brought to our attention that required immiadiate fixing. So we did this today. Basically blogs would not display the back-slash (\) correctly on the entries. This was also seen in comments.

We have since fixed this issue and all should work well. Please report any errors or bugs that may have generated from this fix to us via this blog or the comment form.

Us at Aeonity would also like to remind the population that we run this site for free. There are only two of us who run it and we generate no revenue from this site. We are completely ad free and it does cost us money to keep this great dedicated server to run Aeonity on. We ask for patience when contacting us via support, especially on weekends, as we have families and other jobs to actually do that take priority over Aeonity.

If you have a problem with our free support, please feel free to join another blogging community where you will get ADs on your blogs or you have to pay a monthly fee. But please, give us time to get back to you and remember that we do our best to help out the users.

Thank you for supporting Aeonity.

New Probation Rule

We have implemented a new probationary rule to Aeonity. What does this mean to you? Well if you are a new user, or current user who has under 10 posts you can no longer have links in your blog posts.

However, after you have reached 10 posts this period is lifted and you can post links again. What we are trying to accomplish with this new rule is to thwart spammers. Hopefully this will reduce the number of spam posts we receive.

Another new rule to be implemented soon will be any blog account that is more than 15 days old without postibg a blog will be deleted due to not being an active member. If a user has at least 1 post their account wll not be deleted. Be active and keep your account alive.

If you have any issues with either of these please let us know. Thank you.

As the year ends gloomily with the recent economic crisis, hopefully next year will be a better one for all.

I anticipate with excitment as well as anxiety as my due date creeps closer and closer. How will i react? Will I be able to go through without feeling much pain? Will I cry and scream and scratch the nurse like what my sis did? How will my BB look like?

She's been so active these days, the kicking sensations are so amazing. Similar to hitting a balloon. She'll disturb me everytime at 2am, without fail but hopefully she doesn't do that when she's out. sad.gif I heard so many horror stories about mummies getting depression just by taking care of the baby. What the HACK!? my grandma had like 6 children and she's living a ripe old age of 85 and still going strong!!!

Talking about youngsters these days, I've been picturing those teenagers like my kids and it's truly tramatizing!!!

The clothes that they wear, the language that they speak and the mannerism. OMG, I can only pray hard that my girl girl will be guai guai de.

Hopefully we can be good parents and bring to my kids a comfortable and happy home. I want to have 3 children if I can afford!! happy.gif

What should I name my BB?
Elsa? Emma? Phoebe?? So many names, only one BB. So confused one. Seeing my niece grow up day by day, becoming cuter and cuter. I am already imagining how my BB will grow and look like, will be so strange to see someone look like me.. haha.

Well..happy new year everyone!

Expanding the Family

Hello!

Well today I am writing to you that my wife is finally pregnant. We had been trying for about 7 months and she finally tested positive! We are so excited. This is truly a blessing and it came at the right time...in time for Christmas and just in time since she graduated a week before we found out!

How we told her family (since this is their first grandchild/great grandchild) was she made them each a picture frame with a thing inside that says "Picture coming in 9 months" and on the outside it had like "World's best grandma" etc. Then had them all open it on Christmas Eve.

Everyone was so excited it was awesome. Her mom teared up and yea, it became the best Christmas present for everyone. My family was a bit less dramatic but we decided to tell my niece first and let her spill the beans since I just love my niece =) She was excited and about 20 seconds later we got a call back from my sister congratulating us.

Well this had to be my favorite Christmas of all times. I got exactly what I wanted and so did my wife and her family and my family.

Well it had been a long time since I updated this blog and decided to tell the world...I am going to be a father!

Thanks for Reading,
Jim

its been three days since the out break, ive been stuck in this damn army surplus store with nothing to do, they're every where and every now and again one gets brave and attacks the doors, lucky for me the burglar bars seem to be holding up so far, ive been passing my time dressing in old army camos and shooting people...( heh i don't know if theyre people any more) with paintball guns since this place doesn't have real weapons exept knives and pepper spray, it seems the colder it gets the slower these things move, during the day they move at pretty decent speed, kind of a slow jog but during the night when it gets below 40 these ... things tend to huddle together letting the warmth from their decomposing flesh keep them going until it dawn, this is the only time i have to gather what ever i deem useful by trading with other survivors who've laid claim to other locations
hopefully some one will trade me a gun with a few rounds of ammo for all these flashlights and MREs i have

Wow! It's been 2 years since I was last on here! This entry is well over due! =0)

It comes this time of year when I love to listen to Christmas songs even though Thanksgiving hasn't even past yet. I think it drives Jim crazy, but I can't help. It's almost like an instinct, which I assume is much similar to the motherly instinct a woman has when she has a baby. But I wouldn't know for sure because I haven't reached that point in my life yet, I am simply guessing. Anywho, I love majority of all Christmas music, there are some songs that I just don't care for, but I have to say that above all my absolute favorite Christmas song is Little Drummer Boy! And I especially love the verson by Bob Seger! I don't know what it is about the song, but I can't just hear it once, I have to listen to it over and over and over. Usually if I do that with any other song, I get tired of it and end up hating it later, but not with this song! I guess that means it could be considered my favorite song. I made Jim download it for me so I don't have to wait around for the radio station to play it, and when he was looking for it, he found a video of a house with Christmas lights that turn on and off to the beat of Little Drummer Boy on YouTube! It is amazing and I just wanted to share it with you! I listed the lyrics below so you can sing along if you wish! lol Tis' the season!

Little Drummer Boy Lyrics

Come they told me
(ba rum bu bu bum)
Our new born king to see
(ba rum bu bu bum)
Our finest gifts we bring
(ba rum bu bu bum)
To set before the king
(ba rum bu bu bum x3)
So to honor Him
(ba rum bu bu bum)
When we come

Little Baby
(ba rum bu bu bum)
I am a poor boy too
(ba rum bu bu bum)
I have no gift to bring
(ba rum bu bu bum)
That's fit to give a king
(ba rum bu bu bum)

Shall I play for you
(ba rum bu bu bum)
On my drum

Then He nodded
(ba rum bu bu bum)
The ox and lamb kept time
(ba rum bu bu bum)
I played my drum for him
(ba rum bu bu bum)
I played my best for him
(ba rum bu bu bum x3)
Then he smiled at me
(ba rum bu bu bum)
Me and my drum

So, We are not taking a break, and we are not breaking up, we are however going to separate ourselves a little bit. I'm moving back to my parents house for a while, so that we can distance ourselves for a little while during this time of us figuring things out. This could ultimately end in our breaking up but who knows. I'm not even sure where my heart is in the matter, like what I actually want...

So, I'm at my mom's house right now, came here to set up my computer and such since I can't really use it anywhere else right now. It's kind of nice, their internet connection is hella good compared to what mine was.

In the time frame of this next week I plan to fully be living here. Yes I will spend a night or two with Cersten but not live with her completely. This could be pretty good, but it will be pretty hard. I'll probably have nights of crying and the such.

Here's to a new life.

So looks like my odd thoughts and weird assumptions about my relationship going into the shit hole where correct.

She wants to take a break? Uh, I cant take a break, if you cant work out problems in the relationship then there is no need to be in a relationship. Why take a break to work them out? I'm not ok with that, Its either I am in or I am out, no in between! So if she wants to stick it out and work through it then good because thats what a relationship is, but if she honestly decides she wants to take a break then no go I'm out, she can't possibly love me as much as she says she does if she is so ready and willing to take a break.

And because I am not a happy person? Yeah my last month or so have been really hard so of course I'm not a happy person, I am sorry I cant handle my problems on the inside and be a fake happy person outwardly. Because I am this "negative person" she feels its wearing out on her and she wants to be a fun, outgoing, random, spontaneous, party with friends, and fuck anything that matters girl, in my mind thats not someone I want to be with. I'm an adult and I plan to live a fun responsible life. Its possible, I don't know why she doesn't think so, ugh!

Guess love only lasts so long... we'll see where it goes from here. She should be home soon so more talking, deliberating, arguing, and crying... fun!

Best part is if it ends I have to move back in with my parents cause I can't afford my own place yet...

I totally wanted to write the last entry for much longer than I did I just had to start paying attention in class (yes I was writing when I was suppose to be avidly listening to my college instructor, so what!?) so now that I am out of class, why not keep writing.

To expand on the feeling exluded and distant from my other, it just happened again. Before I came here to the library to use the computer I went to see Cersten after class. She works at the scene shop for the schools theatre department so I knew she would be there. We also drove here together so I kinda needed to know where she would be when I get out of my next class that starts 2 hours from now (a hefty amount of time to waste), reasonable reasons to see her right?

Just wanted to say hi and ask her when the rehearsal for the show would be done tonight (since she is also props manager for the show run throughs) so we could make our departure a bit easier. First words I get from her is "you shouldn't be here right now" Why? I dont know! I go there every tuesday after class to say hi and catch up with her for a nice 5-10 minutes and none of her coworkers or bosses even care, so uh, whats the problem. I barely get two words in edgewise without her looking away. I had to tell her what I wanted and then say it extremely adamintly before she even started giving me the time of day. Hell I didn't even get a kiss because of her excuse (while blowing up balloons) "my lips tatse like latex" what the fuck is that! (sorry for my language). I don't get it.

Anyone with any sort of logical brain would take this sort of thing and say to themselves "what did I do wrong?". I've thought it over quite intensly and I have come to the conclusion that I have done nothing wrong nor anything that could even be closely construed with 'wrong'. Like I said before I really hope this is just and adjusting phase she is going through because I won't care to handle it if its gonna be like this for good.

Oh yeah! Of course when I talk to her about the way I feel about this she basically says that she doesn't feel like there is anything wrong with our relationship and that it's going well... I don't get that... UGH! Whatever, really. I will just go on with life right now while focusing on the other things in it that are also important...

Wish me luck.

So I actually haven't blogged anywhere is quite some time, and I don't feel like doing it in any other place. If I did on facebook notes I'm sure I would get tons of crap from pretty much all of my friends, or I just wouldn't be able to actually say what I want to say. So here I am on aeonity, not a bad idea. Most of my friends on here are from more than 3 years ago, who cares what they think If I don't even talk to them anymore. Let's not say 'who cares' lets say It's not going to affect any of my social situations. Though, I still have a good feeling this post will be read, or at least looked over. David probably still has me on his friends, maybe not, if so he'll get this and be surprised at the capacity he actually has to create a community that actually has someone coming back to it after a countless amount of days away. So, here I am, deal with it.

I really have a lot on my mind lately and I feel like I can't talk to anyone about it so It seems like the best choice just to blog it. Sure people can read this but they would have to be looking for it. No big deal.

Our house started on fire the other day, it was an electrical fire in the basement. Didn't burn through much of anything before it was put out, but it did create a lot of smoke damage. Guess to much carbon got into the air and a lot of the smoke was from burning plastic so for the next week the house is uninhabitable. Pretty much blows hard, I'm stuck in a hotel room with out any of the luxuries I'm use to. Which honestly, big deal! I should get over it, whats our issue in this world always thinking we deserve so much, we should be happy with what we have. I'm lame for seeing this as such a great inconvenience.

So I'm with this girl named Cersten, been living with her for almost a year, and I love her. Though, in the last week or so she has starting going through this awkward (for me) phase. She is trying to find herself and do things for herself because she feels like she has been responsible for others far too much. Which, I understand totally cool! Though I've been extremely neglected as even part of her existence and we are stuck in a hotel together!!! It just doesn't make sense to me. I feel very lonely about it and It's kind of eating me up. This isn't normal since we've been living together for so long, usually getting along and always acknowledging the other person through spending time with them and including each other in our daily lives. I feel like I have to pry for any information or for any attention. I really hope this doesn't last long...

I have to get going for now, feels good to get going with some outward-feeling-writing.

So I was sick for about 3 weeks. Typical upper respiratory system cold. No muscle aches or tiredness or headaches. Sore throat went away after I figured out I was getting sick and kept myself hydrated. Would've felt ok except for the stuffiness. Took Sudafed. Towards the end, I was spitting out lots of phlegm. Phlegm did get dark in color then cleared up. The cold hung in there for awhile without changing than in a couple of days it was gone.

Approximate duration was 9-28-2008 to 10-17-2008

So bored at work now, so I decided to blog. I am officially 12 weeks pregnant now and I can announce to whole world about it!! keke. It's such a weird feeling that you will be someone's mother in 6 mths' time, and that will last for a whole lifetime!

So looking forward to my next gynae check up, want to see how my little one is coping inside my tummy.

Suddenly your life starts filling up with child care handbooks, shopping for a right pram, deciding when and where to get helpers etc etc. Though it's a little over-whelming, somehow it seemed to fall into the right places.

I am having those emotional mood swings, upset over the slightest issue. My colleague was relenting about how she went into a huge fight with her hubby because of an apple pie. haha.. hilarious as it sounds, it doesn't seemed that funny when you are in it. You also suddenly age like 30 years old, u feel lethargic all the time, became forgetful adn the only good thing that is working well are probably your ears and appetite.

I eat heartily from pizza to wanton mee to laksa and char kway tiao, everything's yummy. Love frizzy drinks which I don't drink in the past, love potato as well and bread.

This morning I caught one of those dizzy spell and almost fainted in the MRT, I quickly alight at Orchard MRT and sat on the bench for like 15 mins! Broke out in cold sweat and my face was turning pale. Hopefully it doesn't happen again as i might just collapse and hurt my little one.

Looking forward for my bundle of joy!

Last Monday I had two biopsies performed - one on my face and one on my back. The results came back today when I had the one, cute, little stitch removed from my face grin.gif

The face biopsy was normal.
The back biopsy was in the medium range for abnormalities. They did another *small* surgery today on my back. Now I have a sideways eye-shaped, stitched-up cut on my back. Argh!! I have to deal with stitches again now :-/

I will get my results back next week and have my stitches removed in two weeks.

I'm not worried, it's just a bit of a nuissance because it's in the upper middle of my back where I cannot reach without much trouble. I may have to recruit someone to change my bandage for me. haha

My back is itching...an unscratchable itch lol

deathcab4u Goals Sep 17th, 2008 12:29:01 am - Subscribe
Currently:

Quitting Jimmy Johns and beginning at Dominos starting monday. Offer to be assistant manager at Halloween Express with Lauren.

As far as money goes making more would be nice but in the long run I think time to devote to personal development, school and volunteering will be more important than paying off all my bills a little faster.

Plan A:
Within a week of today have requested professional letters of recommendation from 5 people and ask that they have them to me within 2 weeks of request. Within 1 week of receiving the letters have applied to three Wilderness Therapy Schools on the list provided by a friend. Also contact family in Oregon and Utah to explain plans and request hospitality if I am selected and accept a job offer.

Also, within a week find information for CPR and First Aid Certifications and get that done within 3 weeks if possible.

If invited to go to a training session and hired I will move be moving out of state and must complete obvious preparations for making such a move.

Plan B:
If not selected for a field instructor position at this time request feedback about what to do to to be hirable for that type of work. Take Action on feedback.

In addition volunteer with High School Youth Group and/or Boy Scouts. In January Take EMT courses. In the summer work at a youth summer camp to gain more experience in that area. Re-apply to Wilderness Therapy Schools in the end of the summer.

Also currently I must talk to my father about money for current tuition and maybe some money to help with my vehicle registration. Must also cut back discretionary spending.
