A couple of sub 100 degree days in a row and I'm seriously considering starting to run again. I just can't hack the Texas summer for any real running so I normally just play beach volleyball at zilker or something else to stave off all the chocolate I eat. If you pass me on Town Lake trail huffing along for the next few weeks say hello, though I doubt you'll get much of an audible response. To this end I was bored and decided to make a placeholder for my race results from a few past races. I'm probably going to make a Drupal module that stores all training and race information properly in the database so I can use it for statistical analysis and other geekery but just getting it all in one place will be nice. -mf

• PHP Forum - Paris France 9-10th - Google Apility introduced
  

I just discovered that József Rekedt-Nagy is going to be implementing the MPTT algorithm that I tried to convince Bharat to implement last year. I think this is great news for the Gallery project and I'd like to get involved if im not to late already. This important decoupling of the gallery will usher in a whole slew of cool new feature possibilites. Now if i can just make some headway in multiple hierarchy taxonomy. -mf
