We’ve made some new photos in Petra tou Romiou, Pissuri, Dekelia and mexican restaurant “El Pueblo” in Limassol.
So, “El Pueblo” is one of the best places in Limassol. There are mexican interior, mexican music and fantastic mexican food! I hightly recomend this restaurant for the fancy of picturesque places!
Two new movies have started on this weekend: a crime drama “Collateral” with Tom Cruise in role of a contract killer Vincent and a horror “House of the Dead”.
In my opinion, only “Collateral” deserves your attention. I didn’t like Tom Cruise. But after I had seen “Vanilla Sky” and “Interview with the Vampire” I have changed my opinion.
Also, you can still watch fire thriller “Man in Fire” (hightly recomend), drama “Open Water” and thriller “The Bourne Supremacy”.
Have a look detailed cinema schedule.
Enjoy.
Many of you know the best resource for hosting of open source projects. Sure, it’s SourceForge.

New Configuration: Fedora Core 2 Linux, kernel 2.6.x, GNU libc 2.3.3, Apache 2.0.51, Perl 5.8.3, PHP 4.3.8, Python 2.3.3, Tcl 8.4.5.

Hope that this upgrade will allow Sourceforge to be some better!
The first point release of the stable 2.8.x series of GNOME has been released. This release includes the latest bugfixes and other improvements such as updated translations and is the first in a series of point releases.
Also, new version of GARNOME has been released to build GNOME 2.8.1.
I’d like to announce a release of Java-Gnome 2.8.1. There were implemeted some new features and fixed many bugs.
Java-GNOME is a set of Java bindings for the GNOME and GTK libraries that allow GNOME and GTK applications to be written in Java.
Google is the most famous and power search system in the computer world! But Google doesn’t stay on that and it evolves constantly and offers new services and tools. I’d like to show you the most interesting (in my opinion) from them:
- Google Desktop Search allows you make a search in the Internet and on your computer using Google Search Engine. It’s very useful for MS Windows users because they don’t have any tools for quick search like Linux utility localte
- Picasa Photo Organizer allows you find, organize and do things with our digital pictures.
- Blogger allows you space and tools to create your web blog.
-
Web APIs allow you develop your own applications using Google APIs.
Also, Google offers email service with free storage 1,000 megabytes and possibility to use it like external hard drive in your computer.
And finally, I’ve heard that Google’s started to develop its own web browser to make up competition to IE.
memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory object caching system, generic in nature, but intended for use in speeding up dynamic web applications by alleviating database load.
It supports Perl, PHP, Python and Java. Developers of LiveJournal.com have used memcached to speed up access of LiveJournal users and visitors.
Once I’ve needed to convert an example of Perl code to HTML to hightlight it. I’ve made a big Google search and found Code2HTML.
It’s a Perl script which parses source code and generates HTML page with hightlighted code. Code2HTML is easy in use and supports Ada, Awk, C, C++, HTML, Java, JavaScript, Makefile, Pascal, Perl, SQL, ruby.
Many thanks to Peter Palfrader who developed that utility.
