Giraffes! Tall, nervous and spotty. The only creature humans keep in captivity that lasts LESS time than in the wild. Something about how nervous they are in general.

I’m fairly sure this one’s called Ajali. Either way, he seemed really inquisitive when we arrived. As you can see, he even had a lick of the antenna. The guide said that every time they have a hire vehicle in the enclosure - when one of theirs breaks down - the giraffes will steal (or try to) the antenna in short order 🙂

Error: Exit code -2147467259 “Failed to execute script” next to the package name

Things to check:

• The machine is probably running Windows 7 Enterprise - check your package structure to ensure it works properly

• all computers at a particular site (CollectionID ANN00086)
• which had particular software packages

SCOM 2007 reporting seemed to be the way to go, so after a few iterations I came up with this friendly behemoth.

Now let’s break it down…

These are fairly normal, we’re looking for the system name and collection name.

While I was in Melbourne I went to the Werribee Open Range Zoo. One of the tours they offer is the Open Vehicle Adventure, where you get an hour or so in the back of an off road vehicle with close access to many of their amazing animals 🙂

Once we got loaded up in the vehicle, we got the usual safety tips along the lines of “don’t leave, don’t reach out, don’t touch things, we’ll be fine!” And then off we went. The first pen’s about an acre in size, with few fences other than to keep main groups of animals apart.

If you started here, try part one!

Next up were the Rhinos, which the guide described as just like big puppies, who like to come and say hello to new visitors. Thankfully this guy didn’t decide to come and play, because a tonne and a half of snuggly puppy makes for quite a dented truck.

Having three family birthdays in as many weeks is ok when you’re in school and a family dinner is pizza, but these days it’s a restaurant affair. So, we’ve merged it into one and tonight was 2013’s event. Singaporean place in Runcorn, wasn’t bad… spicy Kung Pow Chicken was great 😀

You’d be excused for thinking that it was Elliot’s birthday, but with his cuteness, the close quarters and my limited shooting range he gets the lion’s share of the attention as usual 🙂 <3 my new 50d 😀

I’m terribly behind on the 52Lists thing, so I’m playing catch-up. 🙂 Favourite childhood shows is an interesting one, especially since everyone’s got a different temporal availability of  shows 🙂

• Captain Planet
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
• Pingu
• Gumby
• Sesame Street
• Cartoon connection
• Recovery (ABC Weekend morning show)
• Daria
• Grogs
• Dinosaurs
• Banana Man
• Duck Tales
• Totally Wild

While updating the configs on a bunch of our Cascade Shark appliances I had to do it via SSH (yay for someone stuffing the RADIUS configurations!)

sed’s neat, but of course anything with regex can make you angry. Once I’d tested it a bunch of different ways I went with this. The cat’s are for my own checking – I copy and paste the terminal into a big “log of my brainfarts” when doing stuff at 5am.
