Morris Minor
in Random
Was out for a walk today and saw this car parked near SE 45th and Stark. It is a Morris Minor. I uploaded these using an iPhone application called Pixelpipe. Pixelpipe allows you to upload multiple images to a number of sites at the same time. For example the images above were uploaded to Flickr, Facebook and my blog all at the same time.

Busted Wordpress Plugins...
in Random
On Saturday I noticed that my school web site lewiselementary.org
(which is run on Wordpress) was not loading. I tried to login but
could not even log into the site at all. After sitting around thinking
about what the problem could be I decided that it must be one of the
many, (maybe too many...) plugins I was running on the site. I was
able to FTP into the site and then moved all the plugins out of the
Wordpress plugin directory into the parent directory. This solved the
problem, but now I need to figure out which of the plugins was the one
causing the problem. I was going to write about this this morning,
when I noticed that this site was not coming up. I again applied my
trouble shooting model and moved all the plugins out of the plugin
directory and now the site is up. I plan to print out the directory
listing of each plugin and do some cross referencing and
troubleshooting later today. Will let you know which one I think was
acting up...

Crown Point, Columbia River Gorge

I spent the past few days at a workshop near where this picture was taken. The location is in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic area. An area just 30 minutes and a world away from Portland.

Playing with Recorder App on the iPhone
in Random
I have been playing around with Recorder (http://www.recordertheapp.com/), an iPhone application for recording audio. On Friday, I was visiting Ms. Davis' 3rd grade classroom when a student named Cordell came up to me and asked if her could read a poem to me. I clicked into Recorder and below is the result. I plan to do this more often and use Recorder to record conversations with Lewis students and staff.

I really enjoyed this talk by David Merrill. Reminds me of my visit to our early childhood classroom last week to watch the kids play with their new light table.
