Battle of the Bands

When hanging out with my Friend Paddy before Battle of the Bands, I got the job of filming the event. I took a few picture, here are 3 pictures that when edited I liked a lot. They were than on Paddy’s Canon 60d with an EF 50mm f1.8, (great lens by the way and its so cheap),

If I was you I would look at them in full screen to get the full effect of the images the first one nothing special, but the second and third I do like even if the third one has a bit of noise in it, But I was shooting at 1250 ISO for the video. Because as my uncle said “Photographing bands is always difficult. Not only is the light poor and the buggers keep jumping about but their great big mics keep getting in the way.”

Now I am still waiting for the footage from other camera so that I can edit the event together and this will be the longest video I have edited so I and looking forward to do it. bit scare of the time it will take but still it should be fun.

Solving Irelands Porblems

This was Email to myself and my Family Have a read it a belevie it sound very good and in some place funny, you agree copy and paste into an email and send to a few people if pass the message around maybe something will happen so here it is:
Dear Mr. Kenny
Please find below our suggestion for fixing Ireland’s economy. Instead of giving billions of Euro to banks that will squander
the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan..
You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:
There are about 150,00 people over 50 in the work force. 

Pay them 1million Euro each severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:
1) They MUST retire.
Ten million job openings – unemployment fixed
2) They MUST buy a new car.
150,000 new cars ordered – Car Industry fixed
3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage -
Housing Crisis fixed
4) They MUST send their kids to school/college/university -
Crime rate fixed
5) They MUST buy 50 euro worth of alcohol/tobacco a week …..
and there’s your money back in duty/tax etc
6) Instead of stuffing around with the carbon emissions trading scheme that makes us pay for the major polluters, tell the greedy
bastards to reduce their pollution emissions by 75% within 5 years or we shut them down.

It can’t get any easier than that!

P.S. If more money is needed, have all members of Dail Eireann pay back their falsely claimed expenses and second home allowances

If you think this would work, please forward to everyone you know.

If not, please disregard.

Grumpies of the World Unite

Also whilst we’re at it…..

Let’s put the pensioners in jail and the criminals in a nursing home.

This way the pensioners would have access to showers, hobbies and walks.

* They’d receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheel chairs etc and they’d receive money instead of paying it out.

* They would have constant video monitoring, so they could be helped instantly, if they fell, or needed assistance.

* Bedding would be washed twice a week, and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them.

* A guard would check on them every 20 minutes and bring their meals and snacks to their cell.

* They would have family visits in a suite built for that purpose.

* They would have access to a library, weight room, spiritual counselling, pool and education.

* Simple clothing, shoes, slippers, PJ’s and legal aid would be free, on request.

* Private, secure rooms for all, with an exercise outdoor yard, with gardens.

* Each senior could have a PC a TV radio and daily phone calls.

* There would be a board of directors to hear complaints, and the guards would have a code of conduct that would be strictly adhered to.

However.

The criminals would get cold food, be left all alone and unsupervised. Lights off at 8pm, and showers once a week.  Live in
a tiny room and pay 600.00euro per week and have no hope of ever getting out.

Now think about this (more points of contention):
————————————————————————
COWS

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in Thurles almost three years ago, right to the stall where she Slept in on the farm And, they even tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 125,000 illegal immigrants wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.
————————————————————————
THE IRISH CONSTITUTION.

They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq ect… Why don’t we just give them ours?

It was drawn up by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for a few years but we’re not using it any more, so let somebody else have it, its gathering dust!

————————————————————————
THE 10 COMMANDMENTS

The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse or Parliament, is this -You cannot post ‘Thou Shalt Not Steal’, ‘Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery’ and ‘Thou Shall Not Lie’ in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians….. It creates a hostile work environment.
————————————————————————

Also;

Think about this ….

If you don’t want to forward this for fear of offending someone –
YOU MAY BE PART OF THE PROBLEM!

It is time for us grumpy  folk of Ireland to speak up!

New Minecraft Sever

So little update on minecraft, I wasn’t banned or so they tell me but I think was and when the noise started from a few user for me I was unbanned and Told nothing, but i can’t be sure. I have still moved sever and this time and looking for long term rewards from the sever. I don’t mean being made or a mod or admin which would be nice but I am talking about Plugins and a group of good people to pay with. There are a number of things in which the old sever was better, such as lighting fires and placing lava which they could do and I think is coming back but it a problem with bukkit the new plugin manger than anything else. The good things about this sever which I really like is the community in the sever which I hope to become a part of once I get my area up and running So I have somewhere safe to run to when griefter come on :D

Minecraft

Ok I’m going to try to keep up the blogging its fun, it also gives a point to running a website other than just to have it. So today let’s talk about minecraft lots of people have heard of it and even seen it and the game is not finished and there are still a number of bugs in the Beta.
Ok well Minecraft is a game based on Blocks every is made out of blocks and u can use blocks to make other things such as tools, which always to break other things to get better tools than build things. Its a great little game in multiplayer you find a sever which suits you and your personal tastes and play it, Sever are more fun than single player they are other players to interact with. Also most sever run plugins so that the game is more fun.
A lot of sever have mod (moderators ) to help keep sever rules and help people out. I was such a moderator up till a few hours ago which I call bullet shit on, I was happy doing my job helping other when the other moderator were not on and even when they were. They were a few mistake on my part like I give away a bit too much free things in my first few day but they weird anything bad, that players were not meat to have they could find these things it would just take time.
Most of the things I gave away were for use in my area (I say that but was just a place I had protect to myself) the plan for the area was to build things which were cool and not have to think about where to get things and go off mining or hunting to get them, I also gave people reward which in after thought were a bit high so I lower them and was going to do it again in a day or so, just so I was not unfair on other people. Also the admin was never on to ask question well not on when I was which was a pain or when he was one it was to fix something so he never talk or play the game himself.
There also the time I killed everyone playing but that was a mistake I was trying to teleport myself to someone and the command for that is /tp myusername theirusername but I wasn’t paying full attention as they was someone trying to talk to me on Skype and I typed in /tp * myusername I didn’t mean to put the star in and was going to add the person a wish to teleport to’s user name but the person on Skype asked a question and press enter to remove the thing so I could talk on skype if I had only put in /tp musername like I thought I had than nothing would have happen like I thought it would but that * meant everyone online teleported to me were was up in the air on a glass area but the at most people may have been a little pissed at having been teleported but find for some reason most people fell true the glass and die from the fall so I teleport everyone back and start to throw out things to make up for it and the other moderator teleport everyone into lava and killed them so I when to the spawn point (I couldn’t die at the time) and give out more thing to make up for it. Than when back to what and everything when for a few days,
Yesterday I couldn’t stay on for long because of my computer but I find that the moderator that had teleported everyone into lava had add his name to the projection on my area and start to put up lots of signs saying penis and things like that he also had added the name of another person to my area and remove that of the people I had added who were trying to remove his signs.
Next time I get to login I’m not longer a mod I like to point there was about 3 or 4 days between be killing everyone that my area get signed and then I logged on the next day to find i’m not longer a mod.
On Skype I talked to one of the other moderator the nice one that got me the job, who told me people complained about me one said I stole their things which I didn’t there’s no point I could spawn what I wanted so why would I the only time that may have happen was before I was a moderator which by the way stealing is allowed so it shouldn’t have had an effect no one ever said as a moderator I had to abay different rules than anyone else.
The other one was setting fire to forest, Which I personal hate to see its so pointless but again in not a rule in fact my sever has few rules and I had on a number of time ask the other moderators to help clean up an area where someone had lit it on fire because I can never remember the command to turn fire into air.
So to say I’m a little peed is a lie I’m fucking piss off there was happily working away and I removed I happy to say I made mistakes but I thought I made up for them and I hadn’t give anything that wasn’t do with someone help ME build something in over 3 days. And the Admin never ever asked me about the things and was never on for the time when these things happened so I very very annoyed

Update
IT looks as if the admin banned me as well and I Have no idea why I can understand the get my mod power taken away I may not agree but i understand but banning me as well, I can’t think of a reason for that other than being an ass. I tried last time to tweet the admin I found his account I was looking for it was look to see if he had an account on the minecraft forums so I google “hildgrim minecraft” yes i am using his user name he been an ass so can I, and I found his website, it was the first link when on it and it had a twitter feed down the side when on that and send him a tweet which is on my account but I said “why am not a mod?” so he block me on twitter! I saw this when I when looking for a his answer and saw i was no longer following him.
So Now I am waiting to talk to the mod I have on skype and or his friend to find out what happened and I make go a bit spammy on his ass if i find out he just being a dick.

Time for Real Life “Clubbing”

No my image taken from http://www.sakura-hostel.co.jp/blog/images/clubbing.jpg
A few friends dragged me out away from studying, trying to study and failing to study aka playing minecraft and other things. First of this is not normal for me to do but hell it sound like fun and it can go in the pile with failing to study , Now I’m just after coming back and well my ears are still buzzing so this is kind of fresh in my mind. I not even sure I want to put this up as the web address is well know by friends and family also the things I going to stay may hurt people feeling and there not meant to, I’m no good at writing (go dyslexia for you) but I need some way of getting this out or I’m not going to sleep and I have to good back to studying, trying to study and failing to study in the morning one of the reason I left early well if u can 1:42am early to leave anything and yes I know time to the minute and I’m sure it take some time to forget it too.
Right time to start we when a club which happen to be gay which was weird for my friend to take me I had started to think that they had picked something up wrong, but it was because “pulling a Girl was so easy” which I’m not really that in to but sure I out nights with the lads having a laugh, Now don’t get me woman are great I would love to be in a relationship which someone one night things ehhh, never know what u could get. So we meat up when to a very fancy pub and two people got drinks and we stay and chatted it been a wild since I had lasted talked to most of them so it was fun. We move on this club and I found that another of my friends with his group were there too. So quick chat hit the dance floor drink (yes it was a DRINK) more dancing (WOO) meat this girl friends with one of the girls I was with in his course but any shout over the music (and I do know her name thank u very much) than on to more dancing shouting hence why my troth is sore (at less I hope), So the evening move on good time the girl comes back and starts dancing with us (her friend comes too) Put I one point we were dancing together with a bar between and she called me up I moving up and continued dance with here my thought being when all my friend on the other side of the bar dance at them would give the wrong impression and one of them one more than likely have him me, So I called up start to dance and she moving in and bang we are kissing a very long one, A bit taken a back it did take me a second to figger out what had happen.
So there I am been freed and my brain shuts down (some would say it never started but there mean) As I am think of what to do for some reason I don’t what her to move away but I not sure really what to do, You have to remember my friends may have been looking for something but I have time for girlfriend and somehow I don’t think she would want to be my boyfriend and u know from above I not into the whole pulling thing. So thinks move on and lead place I didn’t see come at all hands and want not. After about 30 to 40 minutes my brain turns back on and I start think about what going to happen if I keep going this way and so on so fort so I pull when things jump another step or three and I look at my watching seeing the time I tell I have to get up which is turn for work not so turn but kind of (bad brain bad). She say ok but looks a bit upset so I go back to kissing her for a few minutes but I have ruin the mood (I’m good at that), I move away say goodbye and head toward the exit my friends at which point has given the similes and worded go on u good thing and so on where no were to be found but one at the bar get water so I so me and this guy normal safe a taxi home and we normal leave earlier that other so leave.
Did I do the thing in the end? Should I see about contacting here as I know all but her name, I will say I’m not really interested more so than when we meat build not really, So what do I do or do I do nothing and let the matter fall away were it could jump up and bite me later.
After writing things are a bit clear all but what to do now I’m sure I play them all out but I’m not sure
