MyGamerCard.net has added a new feature for their supporters, that adds a background to their gamercard based on the last game played. (See Left) This feature is awsome, unfortunately they have closed the supporters program to the public. I am a proud supporter of “MyGamerCard.net”. Go checkout my GamerCard Bookmarklet Generator, or my Halo 2 Stats Bookmarklet Generator.

Fifteen minutes of pure uncut warthog flipping goodness.
Effective Brand a company I found about a year and a half ago, which allows you to make your own community toolbar. Effective Brand really stands out from the competition, though i’ve yet to find any, with all the features you could want and the ease and simplicity that is often hard to find. I would highly recommend Effective Brand to anyone who needs a custom toolbar.

Google’s email solution, Gmail, adds the ability to Chat with other Gmail users right from your web browser. Google says that Chat will not include the ability to send or receive calls, so there is still a reason for the Google Talk Application.
It appears I may have spoken too soon about the condition of the fire. The Wind has picked up and is now pushing the fire westward. I will continue to update the situation here for as long as possible, though I may have to shutdown the server for a period of time if required to evacuate. So far every thing seems to be okay.
There is a brush fire near my home it is burning near my brother’s house. Him, his wife and their two dogs are okay. They have not required an evaquation of the residents in the area but have recommended that we be prepared in case the situation changes. Our last near by brush fire occured about 12 years ago and got very close to our home; at that point we were on the edge of the neighborhood and were the closest to the brush. The firefighters had to come in our backyard and fight the fire at our back fence. The now non-existent news channel OCN came to our house to report on the story.
Ash clouds the sky.
A dead whale lands on the beach, and has to be removed by the Oregon Highway Division. The OHD uses Dynamite, hoping to blast the whale into tiny pieces for the seagulls to eat, and to blow the rest into the sea. Using 1 ton of TNT, they blast the whale straight up and out, and parts of the whale are landing on cars about 1 mile away. Much of the whale remains at the blast site, and has to be bulldozed into the sand.
