As we approach the end of April 2011, I thought I would update those interested in my current passion and this is going to the gym to get bigger, stronger and fitter. If you recall I got this Five day routine from the internet but never started the routine straight away. I joined the gym on the 7th March, spent one week on some general (and wrong) training, the next week I was ill – this meant I never started this routine until 21st March. The purpose of the routine is a simple one, you only do two muscle groups per day which means each muscle has 6 days of rest and you also have two days rest in the week.

Sony Finally come clean about lack of PSN Network
For some time now the Sony Playstation Network which is the backbone of playing online and getting software was down with little word from Sony other than “We are fixing it”. I had already told my friend at work who had bought many songs via his credit card to seek to replace that card as soon as possible as the data may have been compromised. Upon checking yesterday from the Playstation Blog, they released a statement:
Amazon.Com Account Hacked
After my Paypal account got hacked I thought I had secured everything but it seems that this was not the case, on 7th April 2011 I got an email (two of them) telling me that I had gifted The Metallica Collection to bigredbus1@hotmail.com & williamclowny@hotmail.com at a cost of $99.99 each, both of which had left my credit card at 2:52am UK time. I started the process as soon as I work up, calling Amazon and getting this stopped dead in it tracks. I learned a few lessons here I think and I shall detail the process to locking down any future exploits.
Outliving Siteground as a Shared host
I use Siteground as my main webhost and have been some some time now, everything ran great until today I got an email explaining that in fact I was using too much resources for a shared hosting account. On the site here, I run a WordPress Blog and a Gallery of my wallpapers. I recall from my last host when I gave people the option to zip up the wallpapers instead of having to download one at a time, it flagged my account – seems this may be the case again.
Time for a New Smartphone
On the 4th April 2011 (or shortly afterwards) I shall be calling T-Mobile and saying with great Joy “I wish to give you my one month’s notice” and that will be the last payment from them. I have one month to use the phone and then it will stop. Originally I was going to just use my work phone until the iPhone 5 comes out but I have been hearing there is no such thing this year, this means I have to think about which platform I need to buy into, for how long and who with.
