Harpamps Hacked

My site harpamps was hijacked. It seems to have come from one of my advertisers. Someone made some kind of malicious javascript that sends  browsers to another web site. I am the process of removing everything I can from the site.

Cleaning out the Camera

I've got about 5 blog posts worth of stuff here so let's start with a picture of a very hot Max on the glider on the deck.

I took some pictures of the Blueberry Bushes. These will mostly be eaten by birds before I can get at them, though.

Last weekend we went up to Haverstraw for the Farmer's market. It was disappointing as there were only three stands. I bought some Blue Potatoes, which I love.

I took some pictures from the Ferry dock. $10 to go to wall street from Haverstraw (30 miles). This is the way to go if I get another job in the big city.

The hill there is Hi Tor, famous from a play by Maxwell Anderson. I worked at Hogan's Diner one summer with Maxwell Anderson's grandson. He was amazed that I had actually read some of his grandfather's plays.

The mountains on the Hudson river have cool names, although they are hardly mountains, just hills. The names, starting at Nyack going north are Hook, Tor, Bear and The Storm King.

I wanted to show how hard it is to type on the Bus. No room for my knees and no room to put my elbows when I type. Last week I finished my second week of bussing. On Thursday the bus driver got lost on the way home and it took an hour and a half. On Tuesday I got involved with a program, missed my bus and didn't get home until 6:30pm.

Here are some bus pictures of the TZ bridge.

Nikon Cool Pix 775

I got this for free at a garage sale two weeks ago. The owner said that it didn't work. I took a chance and bought a battery and charger for it for $12 and put in an old flash card. It seems to work. Here are some pictures from garage sailing this week.

 

So far it has been a very good deal. The 4Meg flash card can only hold 8 pictures so I have ordered a couple of one gig cards.

I bought a Canon Elura Camcorder at the same sale. I did well.

Windows Live Writer

I am posting this from a nice piece of software from Microsoft called Windows Live Writer. It allows you to use a nice editor instead of the JavaScript html editors that Blogger and other blog packages use. It works nicely. It doesn't scramble your html and it lets you put images on the page where you want without having to hand code the tags.

The only bad thing is the title doesn't let you add a link to it so you have to edit the entry again from blogger.

I shows the blog entry using the style of your blog so you can see how it looks while you are typing. It also spell checks with the word dictionary so it knows about my technical words already.

I like it. Normally Microsoft is the enemy, but this is nice.

Wil Wheaton Links In

Wil Wheaton's blog linked to this site (the cliches list) and instead of 300 distinct users and 500 page views a day, I jumped up to 1500 distinct users and 3000 page views per day for the last few days. Actually that's not a lot compared to my other sites, but it is interesting that a Trek star reads my site.
