The Philippines is through to the second round of World Cup qualifiers after the Azkals leveled Sri Lanka in a 5 -1 (aggregate) win on Sunday. Huzzah!
Congrats Azkals!

Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Quick thoughts on the movie:
- Sam and Carly have zero chemistry
- Why is Megatron wearing a cape?
- Sam’s mom is made of win
- For a G rated movie, I can’t believe the level of violence here.
- The last hour made me think of ‘Falling Skies: The Prequel
- Which on further thought would have been more awesome
- What Michael Bay movie would be complete without a slow mo “emotive” camera pan sequence.
Dark of the Moon is probably the best of the Transformers films, action-wise, but still suffers from a lack of a coherent plot.

I totally mis-read this headline Opera’s Newest Browser is Amazingly Fast, Offers New Take on Speed Dial as “Oprah’s Newest Browser” and thought to myself, “Oprah has her own browser now?! WTH?!” Eyesight FAIL!
Captain America Trailer 2
Now this is what I’m talking about! This looks less cheesy than the first trailer. But it still needs more Armitage 
Post Avatar 1.4
The latest of Post Avatar is here. Mostly coding revisions to take advantage of WordPress APIs and improved security and validation during saving of posts and options. This will be the last version to support PHP 4.
I will be releasing version 1.5 once WordPress 3.2 hits the streets. It’s a major code rewrite. My plan is that future feature requests will be handled as add-ons to Post Avatar so I can keep the code light (hooray for hooks). Plans for the future include support for:
- pages and custom post types
- better integration with author gravatars and comments
- Multi Site installations
- ability to upload images (am toying with the idea of using custom post types for this
Watch this space for further developments. In the meantime grab 1.4 at the plugin repository
Post Avatar 1.3.2
Post Avatar now has a Polish translation courtesy of Meloniq.
I also added Meloniq’s fix for the loading the translation files. A couple of other changes: data validation has been improved. In particular, custom html within the gkl_postavatar tag must now conform to allowed HTML tags in WordPress (wp_kses).
I fixed a bug that Nate identified wherein other plugins using the “apply_filters” tag would cause the image to appear twice.

Spent most of the evening re-watching season 6 of Top Chef, and I just wanted to say that I heart Kevin.

Just released version 1.3 of Post Avatar, removing deprecated functions. You must be running WordPress 2.8 or greater in order to upgrade. I’m doing this so I can take advantage of the new WordPress features in upcoming releases.
