My LibriVox recordings & my reading journal (solo Litblog).


WordPress problems, oversized images. Argh! but at least a fix is in the works.

Hello global visitors,
A bit of news.
Wordpress recently issued a fix for a long standing problem. Only problem is, some of us wordpress’ers have found our images to be completely oversized compared to our specified formatting.
Luckily, the Happiness Engineers at WordPress are trying to sort it all out.
So if anyone reading my blog comes across a LibriVox logo or book cover that sort of dominates a post, it’s only temporary! and should be reduced to it’s quiet little icon as soon as they work their coding magic.
Thanks for visiting!

ttfn!

Updates now available to three of my recent LibriVox poetry recordings.

Good Evening.

Since the recent LibriVox server migration, there have been a few teething problems. Fortunately, all of them seem to be ironed out now. For those of you who frequent this site regularly, thank you for your patience.
I have updated the following of my poetry posts with links to the newly catalogued recordings and the accompanying relevant information.

Weekly Poem

The Higher Pantheism by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

A Bird in a Gilded Cage by Arthur J. Lamb

Fortnightly Poem

The Higher Pantheism in a Nutshell by Algernon Charles Swinburne

Thank you for visiting.

Quick LV update; The Higher Pantheism poems have been delayed…for now

Greetings to those who regularly listen to my LibriVox poetry projects.
Thank you for visiting!

 
As you may have noticed, recently there was a joint weekly and fortnightly project involving a common theme.
To those readers, who haven’t a clue what I’m on about, I’m writing about these:-
The Weekly Poem (extended to 2 weeks) – The Higher Pantheism by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
The Fortnightly Poem – The Higher Pantheism in a Nutshell by Algernon Charles Swinburne

 
According to fellow LibriVoxer “aradlaw” (aka David Lawrence), who is BC & MC for both of these projects:-


Last I heard the LV cataloging function was broken by the server migration, so until the stray file bits catch up to the herd, cataloging is delayed :?

(Original quote can be read on this page)

 
:cry:
At the moment no-one is sure when those pesky stray file bits will be directed to their proper homes, so both of those projects will remain in “limbo” until the cataloguing has taken place.
Sorry about all this, but technical problems are always difficult to sort out without breaking everything else.
Although personally, I’ve met far too many engineers who like to use a “technical tap” that usually means hitting or thumping machinery with something big or heavy. Like a hammer :D

ttfn!

Do you want more World War Z movie news? okay then, here’s another update.

World War ZI’m not going to get obsessive about the movie, and thank you but no, a few updates does NOT make me obsessed. But, I thought that it was interesting that the movie has switched location from Falmouth, England to Glasgow and other locations in Scotland (until the end of August 2011). Apparently, filming also took place in Continue Reading →
