    Tags: Automattic, design, P2   

    I had a hard time settling down with a good blog design, but I have finally found the P2 theme by Automattic which I definitely can recommend – it simple and pure.

    Until I get around to design my own theme, I will definitely be using this one.

    Thumbs up Automattic!

    Did you know? 

    If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
    (Hardly seems worth it.)

    If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.
    (Now that’s more like it!)

    The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet.
    (O.M.G.!)

    A pig’s orgasm lasts 30 minutes.
    (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

    A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death.
    (Creepy.)

    Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.
    (Do not try this at home. Maybe at work.)

    The male pray mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male’s head off.
    (“Honey, I’m home. What the….?!”)

    The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It’s like a human jumping the length of a football field.
    (30 minutes… lucky pig. can you imagine??)

    The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.
    (What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

    Some lions mate over 50 times a day.
    (I still want to be a pig in my next life…quality over quantity)

    Butterflies taste with their feet.
    (Something I always wanted to know.)

    The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.
    (Hmmmmmm……..)

    Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people.
    (If you’re ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

    Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump.
    (OK, so that would be a good thing………………..)

    A cat’s urine glows under a black light.
    (I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

    An ostrich’s eye is bigger than its brain.
    (I know some people like that.)

    Starfish have no brains.
    (I know some people like that too.)

    Polar bears are left-handed.
    (If they switch, they’ll live a lot longer.)

    Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
    (What about that pig??)

    You Know You Are Living In 21st Century when…
    1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
    2. You haven’t played solitaire with real cards in years.
    3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
    4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
    5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don’t have e-mail addresses.
    6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
    7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
    8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn’t have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
    10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
    11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )
    12. You’re reading this and nodding and laughing.
    13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to show this message.
    14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
    15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn’t a #9 on this list.
    And Now You Are Laughing At Yourself!!!

    How to prevent .DS_Store file creation over network connections 

    Note: This will affect the user’s interactions with SMB/CIFS, AFP, NFS, and WebDAV servers.

    1. Open Terminal
    2. Execute this command
      defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true
    3. Either restart the computer or log out and back in to the user account

    If you want to prevent .DS_Store file creation for other users on the same computer, log in to each user account and perform the steps above—or distribute a copy of the newly modified com.apple.desktopservices.plist file to the ~/Library/Preferences folder of other user accounts.

    Apache2 hangs with ‘Digest: generating secret for digest authentication’ 

    I was running Apache2+SSL on a VM (Virtual Machine).

    After enabling SSL and trying to add another SSL site, apache would refuse to restart and the following error would show up in /var/log/apache2.log

    Digest: generating secret for digest authentication

    After doing some research, it turns out that the VM did not have enough entropy to generate much of anything. Increasing this is easy, but may not be completely secure.

    $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
    139

    I found that rng-tools could help me solve this.

    apt-get install rng-tools

    Start the service

    rngd -r /dev/urandom -o /dev/random

    After running rngd, the entropy will increase at a gradual rate.

    cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
    2220

    If you want this to survive a reboot, you’ll need to put it in a startup script.

    XenServer: Date/Time synchronization issues 

    By default, XenVMs have their clocks synchronized to the XenServer Host that hosts them and will ignore requests to adjust the time made by an ntp daemon if one is running. If you want a XenVM to have an independent clock, log on to its Text Console and issue the command

    echo 1 > /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock

    then run an NTP daemon.

    To revert to the default, issue the command

    echo 0 > /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock

    For more setting up an NTP on the XenServer please refer to the below kb article. Refer to the below kb article for “How to set up an NTP Server for a XenServer network”

    Apache2 – No space left on device 

    I had problems restarting Apache2… After researching a lot I found that it was due there were myriads of semaphore-arrays left, owned by my www-data user.

    The following appears to be some of the errors Apache writes in the log.

    • [emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn’t create accept lock

      or

    • [crit] (28)No space left on device: mod_rewrite: could not create rewrite_log_lock Configuration Failed

      or

    • [error] (28)No space left on device: Cannot create SSLMutex

    After stopping Apache I found the semaphores with the following command

    ipcs -s | grep www-data

    Removing this semaphores immediately solved the problem.

    ipcs -s | grep www-data | perl -e ‘while (<STDIN>) { @a=split(/\s+/); print `ipcrm sem $a[1]`}’

    Nagios3 – Could not stat() command file 

    On Debian and Ubuntu I have seen this error a lot of times with Nagios3.

    Error: Could not stat() command file ‘/var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd’!

    To solve it, simply run

    /etc/init.d/nagios3 stop
    dpkg-statoverride –update –add nagios www-data 2710 /var/lib/nagios3/rw
    dpkg-statoverride –update –add nagios nagios 751 /var/lib/nagios3
    /etc/init.d/nagios3 start

    Top Tips to Keep Your Mac in Top Form 

    Keep Things Up to Date

    Make it a point to check for Apple software updates once a month to keep your system running optimally. From the Apple menu, choose Software Update while your computer is connected to the Internet. Software Update will assess the Apple software on your computer and check our servers for new versions. If it finds any, the updates will appear in the Software Update window. Select the checkbox for the software you want and then click the Install button to download and install the software. You can configure Software Update to automatically check for updates either daily, weekly, or monthly.

    Put Your Files Away

    Put your files away where you can easily find them. This can help prevent accidental file deletion and help you find things much more efficiently. You can get organized by creating new folders (in the Finder, press Shift-Command-N) and arranging them into a workable hierarchy for your files at hand, or you can move your files into existing folders.

    Name Your Files

    Go through your generically-named files and folders and give them more descriptive names so you can find what you need fast. This can help you get organized and makes it easier for Spotlight to search and find what you’re looking for, especially one file amongst your digital photo collection with names like DSC_0431.jpg and so on.

    Note: If you use iPhoto to manage your photos, don’t use the Finder to rename the files.

    To reduce the amount of clutter on your hard drive, free up some disk space by archiving large, seldom used files (learn how here), and be sure to name the resulting archive file appropriately too, so you know what’s in it. Delete any unnecessary or outdated personal files whenever possible and anything that you no longer want or need—just drag them all into the Trash and don’t forget to empty it.

    Back Up Your Files

    To prevent losing your prized or important files, make it a point to back up on a regular basis. You can back up files onto a CD, DVD, external hard drive, iPod, iDisk, or other storage medium and then delete the copies on your hard drive to free up some space. To learn how to back up files, choose Mac Help from the Help menu in the Finder and do a search for “back up files.”

    Check for Viruses

    Macs are far more less likely to get a computer virus like Windows PCs are prone to but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. If you don’t already have antivirus software, you may want to consider making a purchase. If you have the software installed, be sure to keep your virus definitions up to date—you can find the latest updates on your software manufacturer’s website.

    Clean the Outside

    Dust and other debris can harm your computer’s innards if you allow the stuff to build up around your workspace. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth, feather duster, or canned air to clean your Mac’s outside as well as the surface areas around it. You can use a slightly water-dampened cloth to clean the screen. Do not use any type of liquid cleaner to clean your Mac.
