Rock Archway

Moby — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 18:06:10 +0000

This rock archway was a Christmas gift from my wife. She bought it from one of those temporary Christmas stores that pop-up in the malls during the holidays. It was made by Roman, Inc. and dated 1997. I’m guessing it was designed to be use as an additional piece in nativity scenes.

I have no idea where I got these but they’re obviously from some kind of build your own dungeon set for a RPG.

Christmas Gate with Wreath

I bought this Christmas gate from EvilMart a few years ago. This was before my wife banned the store from our lives. It has no markings on it other than a Made in China sticker on the bottom.

Pirates of the Caribbean Hallmark Keepsake

Moby — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 17:28:11 +0000

This was a gift from my mother and sister for Christmas 2006. It’s a Hallmark Keepsake Christmas ornament (#QXD6376). It depicts a scene from the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl where Captain Jack Sparrow is being held in a jail cell. Pressing the button on the front of the ornament plays the music to “A Pirate’s Life for Me.” Here’s the text from the box:

As the Black Pearl descends upon Port Royal, its cannon fire blasts through a wall of the prison where condemned pirate Captain Jack Sparrow is held. Unfortunately, the hole does not extend far enough into Jack’s cell to allow his escape. The other prisoners lament Jack’s lack of luck as they flee. Desperate, Jack attempts to lure the four-legged jailer who holds the keys to his freedom. Will Jack manage to escape, or will he face the gallows in the morning and be hanged as a pirate? Well, Jack has escaped from desperate circumstances before, and he is, after all, Captain Jack Sparrow …

Harvard - Dexter Gate

Moby — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 18:59:16 +0000

This was a 2007 birthday gift from my wife. It’s from one of my favorite architectural model makers Timothy Richards.

Dexter Gate is a familiar landmark to all Harvard graduates. On the face of its lintel is carved “enter to grow in wisdom” and on the reverse, “depart to serve mankind”. Harvard commissioned this bookend to commemorate the centenary of this landmark. Harvard University was established in 1636 and is one of America’s earliest educational institutions after being set up by the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Wordpress Plugin: Cookie Timeout

Moby — Sat, 21 May 2005 15:38:55 +0000

My wife called me to tell me that people could reach her site’s admin page (specifically her mother), and wanted me to check her site. I told her that she probably forgot to logout, and I was right. The default expiration for the login cookie is one year. I just wrote a small plugin to change that value to something more reasonable.

Cookie Timeout 0.5 NOTE: This only works if you have Wordpress 2.01 or greater
Cookie Timeout 0.20 (works with 1.52)

Version History:

0.50 Compatible with WordPress 2.5. (2008-03-29)
0.42 Fixed another redeclare error and the plugin can now be run from sub-directories. (2008-03-22)
0.40 Added option to ignore the “Remember me” checkbox on the login page. (2006-06-13)
0.36 Added nonce security. (2006-06-03)
0.35 Fixed “Cannot redeclare wp_setcookie()” error when the plugin is activated. (2006-04-10)
0.31 Compatible with WP 2.01. Simply some internal housekeeping on their part. (2006-01-31)
0.30 Compatible with WP 2.0. Now respects the new “Remember me” checkbox on login (2005-12-21)
0.20 Added ability to expire the cookie when the current browser session is closed (2005-06-27)
0.11 Added message for the need to logoff after making changes (2005-05-23)
0.10 Initial version

NOTE: If you want this plugin’s values to work on password protected posts you have to replace the wp-pass.php file in the root of your installation with the following version:

wp-pass.zip
