I took a picture of the Moon two days apart, on May 9 and 11. I’m quite happy with the amount of detail! Previously when I shot the Moon at night it was nothing but a fuzzy white blob.
And around that time, I went down to Granville Island to see the Vancouver Men’s Chorus end-of-spring show. They did not disappoint! And on the way I snapped a few photos of Granville Island
Last Sunday—yes, I’m just getting around to blogging about it—I went on my third tour of TRIUMF. Fortunately indoor vball season’s over, and grass only starts next month, so I was free to bask in SCIENCE!

So I’m putting the finishing touches on an UberCart 2 module, and I’m thinking it’s as good as it’s going to get. Then I go ahead and test it—the most visible test would be the creation of a custom node type and product class—and… no go. The class is created, but the node type isn’t.

Ted Cox is an ex-Mormon missionary who found reason and now spends much of his time writing and talking about evangelical subcultures. In particular, he has gone undercover (posing as a gay man) to “ex-gay” retreats and workshops.

Here’s a little something I figured out just recently. Let’s say you have Ubercart installed. Let’s say also that you want to add a custom field to the uc_orders table. There are a couple of ways to do this.
