Hacked

Looks like the site is back up. Apparently on April 18th, someone exploited a vulnerability in Coppermine and gained access to PHP files on the server. That enabled him to put in some code that would redirect people to a malware site. I found this out tonight and stripped down all of the offending code that I could find. Coppermine’s been upgraded as well.

Warm temps finally

It finally reached 70 degrees yesterday after almost 6 months. Today it even almost reached 80.

Major tornado outbreak expected tomorrow

The Mississippi valley area is currently under a Day 2 Moderate risk for a major severe weather outbreak tomorrow.

They even contemplated going with a Day 2 High Risk; something that has not been done since April 2006.

Tornado goes through Little Rock, Arkansas

A tornado just went though Little Rock, Arkansas. There was debris reported at the National Weather Service office. The local Fox 16 TV Meteorologist made a huge snafu as he stated that the tornado was weakening right as it entered the “code of silence” by the NWS radar; damage reports are pouring in.

TRV problems

Well the TRV900 went back to the seller; he never bothered to mention the massive water damage to the camera that prevented it from recording audio via both an internal and external microphone. Back to eBay for more searching.
