In Action


I’m working on projectME and doing some setup. I installed postgres because it will be easy to keep it separate and, I always heard good things about postgres. Anyway, I’ll need to remember this: ########################################################### # A startup item has been generated that will aid in # starting postgresql80-server with launchd. It is disabled # by default. Execute the following command to start it, # and to cause it to launch at startup: # # sudo port load postgresql80-server ########################################################### ---> Installing postgresql80-server @8.0.26_0 To create a database instance, after install do sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/var/db/postgresql80/defaultdb sudo chown postgres80:postgres /opt/local/var/db/postgresql80/defaultdb sudo su postgres80 -c ‘/opt/local/lib/postgresql80/bin/initdb -D /opt/local/var/db/postgresql80/defaultdb’ To tweak your DBMS, consider increasing kern.sysv.shmmax by adding an increased kern.sysv.shmmax .. to /etc/sysctl.conf ---> Activating postgresql80-server @8.0.26_0 ---> Cleaning postgresql80-server So this cold has lingered but NyQuill seems to help. No fever just headache and stuffyhead. I was a little achy last night but I think that was due more to the rebif. Had a yearly check-up and the cod said everything seemed good. I still need to lose 20 pounds. When I said that to her she asked me why I wasn’t losing it. Because I like to eat was really the only answer I had. Without being as active as I was in the lab, in college, as a lifeguard or landscaper I cannot eat as many calories and expect to drop the weight in the summer, or during snowboarding season like I used to. I also heard something that indicates my metabolism is slowing down so things take longer and for me to lose weight I need to eat less than I think I need. Thought list for next years goals. This will be useful to remember when I want to tie into redis: ########################################################### # A startup item has been generated that will aid in # starting redis with launchd. It is disabled # by default. Execute the following command to start it, # and to cause it to launch at startup: # # sudo port load redis ########################################################### ---> Installing redis @2.4.4_0 ---> Cleaning redis ---> Deactivating redis @2.4.1_0 ---> Cleaning redis ---> Activating redis @2.4.4_0 To start up a redis server instance use this command: redis-server /opt/local/etc/redis.conf

  1. Lose twenty pounds
  2. Publish a website for projectME
  3. Ride 120 days: skate, snow, bike, horse
  4. Write a impromptu code that goes along with Ride The Line (I was blind but now I see).
