Frustrated, originally uploaded by Fallout75.
One of the main things that i like so much about wordpress is that its so simple to use. Over at RocketTheme.com, they make some great templates and I myself am a subscriber, however, ive never been able to use one of them for myself becuase i could never justify the headache to use and maintain the joomla product! When it comes to getting content on the net, wordpress has most things beat hands down.
I would, one day, like to use joomla for something interesting, but until then wordpress is my goto publisher for all things web content.
Since purchasing my new iphone 3 days ago, ive had over 10 dropped calls and every day there has been a point where I was unable to place a call. I just get a Beep Beep when trying to dial out. The iPhone’s Beep Beep is now the new Blue screen of death. If you hear it on a call, call has been dropped. If you hear it while dialing tuff luck, your call was not placed.
I guess I can just watch a YouTube video while I wait for service to become available again, “fewest dropped calls” my ass. As most of you can tell by now, I switched over from Verizon. Best damn phone service in the land IMO!
As much as I hate the service, I think im still going to have to stay with AT&T just beause the iPhone is just so damn amazing, with full Web browsing support, and the HUGE number of Free and Paid applications. Its just a clear winner for me. I just hope i dont end up throwing my phone out the window when I need to make a call and can’t.
In this every changing economy, companies seem to fall into 1 of 3 different categories: Being acquired, acquiring, or going bankrupt. It looks like this recent Web 2.0 acquisition has outlined a move to strengthen one companies hold on an ever growing market of social networking and content distribution. This comes not to long after Clearspring’s most recent round of funding.

I translated this myself with my girlfriend, so dont kill me!!
Chaqueno Palavecino – Morir cantando (Cueca Boliviana)
quiero morir cantando al amanecer
ya me copla se va a cavando me voy muy lejos para no volver
ya me copla se va a cavando me voy muy lejos para no volver
y pensar que la vida es tanto tambien es mucha tambien dolor
y la muerte que es tan traidora a nadie dice con vos me voy
y la muerte que es tan traidora a nadie dice con vos me voy
esas lagrimas de tus ojos es un marde con pasion
ya no lloren mi despedida les pido a todos recignacion
ya no lloren mi despedida les pido a todos recignacion

ya que en la cepultura reyna el cilencio y calma el dolor
ya que en la cepultura reyna el cilencio y calma el dolor
ese viaje del peregrino que fue tan largo que fue faltal
para dejar mi nido dejar me canto y no volver mas
para dejar mi nido dejar me canto y no volver mas
la muerte que es tan traidora a nadie dice con vos me voy
esas lagrimas de tus ojos es un marde con pasion
ya no lloren mi despedida les pido a todos recignacion
ya no lloren mi despedida les pido a todos recignacion
kimbaaa!!
ya no lloren mi despedida les pido a todos recignacion
Viva Bolivia!!!!
Interested in calculating the distance between latitude and longitude using PHP or MySQL? After doing a bit of research on the web, I was able to find the PHP solution that I was looking for. At first I was looking at how to calculate the distance for between a latitude and longitude point mathematically, but then tried to find out if anyone else had a solution that implemented PHP or MySQL that I could reuse.
Have a look at the solution below and let me know if you have any questions.
PHP:
function getDistanceBetweenPointsNew($latitude1, $longitude1, $latitude2, $longitude2, $unit = 'Mi') {
$theta = $longitude1 - $longitude2;
$distance = (sin(deg2rad($latitude1)) * sin(deg2rad($latitude2))) +
(cos(deg2rad($latitude1)) * cos(deg2rad($latitude2)) *
cos(deg2rad($theta)));
$distance = acos($distance);
$distance = rad2deg($distance);
$distance = $distance * 60 * 1.1515;
switch($unit) {
case ‘Mi’: break;
case ‘Km’ : $distance = $distance * 1.609344;
}return (round($distance,2));
}
MySQL:
$qry = "SELECT *,(((acos(sin((".$latitude."*pi()/180)) * sin((`Latitude`*pi()/180))+cos((".$latitude."*pi()/180)) * cos((`Latitude`*pi()/180)) * cos(((".$longitude."- `Longitude`)*pi()/180))))*180/pi())*60*1.1515) as distance FROM `MyTable` WHERE distance <= ".$distance."
I would like to contribute this solution to the author of The marketing technology blog thanks!
