Cade got 3 hits and drove in countless runs (the final score after three innings was 27-27). Check out the pics and that sweet swing. Gotta work on the whole base running thing though…

Grand Princess – 2009
We’re back from the latest Caribbean Cruise on the Grand Princess. Stops included Aruba, Curaçao, Grenada, Barbados, St. Vincent, St. Kitts, St. Thomas, and the Dominican Republic. The Grenada stop was substituted for Trinidad which was cancelled for “operational reasons”. Rumors were that there was a dockworker strike in Trinidad so we skipped it. We were also supposed to go to Grand Turk, but missed that port was well due to “Force 8” winds. All in all it was a very enjoyable cruise. We opted to do private tours in the St. Vincent, Barbados, and St. Thomas and enjoyed them all. In St. Vincent the tour was with Wayne Halbich of Baleine Tours and we sailed on the Rumbaba sailboat in St. Thomas. In Barbados we sailed on “Thriller” where we saw tons of sea turtles while snorkeling. They were all enjoyable tours and are recommended.
I’ve also scanned the patters from this trip and you can view the pics (including our Caribe deck balcony room) in the Cruise Photo Gallery. Note that the pics are all geotagged now so you can see where they were taken on a map. Just use the little filmstrip at the bottom to scroll through the pics and dots will appear on the map of where they were taken. You can click the dots and see larger versions of the pics as well.

New LWC Template
I’ve made a new LWC template that I’ve called WXImproved which integrates a little jquery javascript for some nice effects. It validates as XHTML Strict as well as CSS 2.1. Check it out and see what you think.
The template consists of several files:
- wximproved.html – This is the main page
- wximprovedalmanac.html – This is the historical data for your station
- js folder – Upload this folder to your site. It contains the jqeury.js file which provides all the slider effects. It’s important that this folder is added to the same directory where you’re uploading wximproved.html and wximprovedalmanac.html
- img folder – This folder contains the various buttons and backgrounds. Like the js folder, it should be uploaded to the same directory as wximproved.html
- wxi.css – This is the css file that should be uploaded to your site, again in the same directory as wximproved.html. You can modify this file should you wish to change the colors, fonts, etc.
Note that I’m using the Yahoo User Interface (YUI) library to ensure a that everything looks consistent across a number of platforms. If you want to change the font sizes or font types, I’d strongly encourage you to adhere to the YUI guidelines. The reason is that they’ve done A LOT of work to figure out how to make the fonts look the same in multiple browsers and platforms. Refer to http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/fonts/ for information about how to change font sizes and styles.
