Tired

Why are so many people around me so tired?

Lots of folks are saying that they feel so tired even if they have not had late nights.

Is it the weather?

Dirk Maggs semantic wiki

So I have a website and a test website with smw+ on it I have managed to set up some categories and also some properties.

I have also been able to carry out semantic searches with it working well.

What I have not managed to do so far is to and more than one property to an item. What I mean is that Dirk Maggs is a director, producer, weighed,male these are all different properties so far attempts to add a second property or more to Dirk Maggs has failed, I am not sure what I have done wrong yet.

It's something that I do need to get right as when it comes to actors they to can have more than one property and can have more than one production that they are associated with, so it's something that I need working for my website to work.

Life

Well life continues to be a constant surprise in just how evil some humans can be to each other, I am referring to the fact that in Norway one man killed nearly 100 young people by posing as a policeman at a summer camp and then proceeded to kill as many people as he could, why?

Also this weekend just gone Amy white house a girl singer of 27 who had a lot of talent was found dead, I know she had a lot of demons, perhaps it was the demons that helped her to be so talented, I don't know.

It's just so very sad that she lost her life, what caused her death is not yet fully known but the general opinion is that it was drugs, I wonder if those that supplied her will ever get caught

Dirk Maggs semantic wiki


Well it's been a while since I spoke about this project of mine, the truth be told I found that it's much harder than it looks to get the software on the website working correctly.

The good news is that over the weekend I found that some software that used to be very expensive to buy now has a community version of the software.

So I downloaded this and so far it all works, the down side is that it only runs as a system on my local machine and so is not on the Internet, which in hindsight is probably a good idea as I have already deleted it once and reinstalled it.

So all I have to now do is get my head around properties and and all the other semantic ideas that make up a semantic wiki.

I can see that it should help me with how I want to present and display all the data I have on all the Dirk Maggs productions.

So I have a lot of reading and thinking to do

Semantic wiki


Not to sure if I have all the software completely and correctly installed yet, but I have smw+ installed on a localhost.

I have not yet worked out the best way to get all the pages into the wiki, is it better to. First just get the pages into the wiki and then to do the semantic bit?

I have been looking through the smw+ website for hints on this but have yet to find anything.

The other more long term problem is once if if I ever get the wiki working how I want it how do I transfer the test database to the production wiki?

Music

How do composers weather they are pop or classical, as I don't think it matters for this question, how do they get the sound of the tune in their heads out into the real world?

How do they make something that only exists in their head on paper or being played on instruments?

If I got the chance to as a composer this question the next one would be.

Is what you heard in your head what you got to be played in the big wide world?

Good questions to which I again have no answers.

Silly thought

What speed does sugar dissolve at ?

Does it dissolve fast in hot water than cold?
Does pressure make any difference ?

I don't know the answers to these questions

Websites

I have not to tell the truth here done much to the Dirk Maggs website, I do have some good reasons for this, well that's what I am telling myself!

One reason would be the fact that Dirk has not done any new radio productions that have made it to air yet, or I have not yet found out about them, I suspect that it's the former not the latter.

The other "good" reason is that I just have not had the time or even more shocking the get up and go to do anything to the website, I know it's shocking but there you have it, I have said it, I just don't feel like doing any of my websites and that includes the Dirk Maggs one.

Why?

Not sure

There must be a reason but I don't know what it is at this time.

Perhaps in a few weeks I will feel like dining the website again, but fear not I will not take the Dirk Maggs website down as there is far to much work that has gone into and all the research that has also gone into it.

Why is this?

Happy

How does one decided if they are happy?

Does someone else decide that you are happy?

Do you have to be happy all the time?

I know these are just questions that I get now and then, I don't know the answers to them I just pose them.

Cake

Yesterday managed to bake a fruit cake for the first time in months or possibly years.

The thing took four hours to cook!

But the end result was very worth it.

Remember

Tried to post something in here, but looking at this on the web it appears not to have worked which is a shame, as I am sure it would have been good.

Not much

There has not been much that I want to put down in the blog, most things that have been going on are just the normal grind of just living each day as it comes and as such is no different from anyone else that happens to live in the UK.

How come when you want to have a lie in and have a nice long sleep your body for reasons all of it's own decides that it wants to wake you up at stupid o'clock?
