To my mother, he was Ernie. Oscar winner Ernest Borgnine is dead at age 95. After my mother graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York, she joined the Barter Theatre, a traveling troupe of actors based in Virginia. Ernie drove the bus.
Happy 4th of July, Foxy Grandpa (you know who you are)!
Hey, Robb Pratt stole my dream job of cartoonist-animator!
All of you Cisco Unified Computing System fans are going to like this. I have an 8-blade chassis in the lab with two 6120XP fabric interconnects. I was able to access both of them with UCS Manager, then I took a Java update to 1.7 and my troubles began. I launched UCS Manager and got this message:
At first I thought it meant that Java 1.7 wasn’t considered to be a higher revision than 1.6.x, but then I realized it means that only 1.6 will work. So I uninstalled 1.7 and went back to 1.6. There was no Java error message, but the UCS Manager wouldn’t launch. So I tried going to the other 6120XP and it worked. From there I could see both units, but the first one still refused a direct connection. Which raised the question of what had broken? I updated to 1.7 again, tried getting into UCS Manager on the 6120XP that had worked minutes before, and it failed. Downdating to 1.6 left me with no access to UCS Manager.
What was the fix? Deleting the Java cache. Apparently, it can remember error events and replay them. After clearing the Java cache, this was how the Java console looked when the UCS Manager successfully launched on both 6120XP units.
This is one of my painful, and fortunately infrequent, examples of why I don’t blog about work.
According to Quantcast, more people stop by here than go to K.D. Lang’s official site. I suppose I can accept that. I’m also ahead of Wheaton College’s site? Yeah, sure. But rating higher than hotbareteens.com? Uh, no. I don’t see that as being very likely.
Besides Chris Isaak’s career in music, he’s also done some acting. Back in 1992 — 20 years ago?? — he was in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, David Lynch’s movie follow-up to his disturbing, haunting, yet often humorous, TV series.
