Richard Dawkins - The God Delusion - Book Review | Unreality Shout

gerardmcgarry — Mon, 25 May 2009 06:14:00 -0400

Reading The God Delusion reminded me why I made my choice in the first place. One of the upsides of the book was that it really did reaffirm my position (not that I was wavering). From my own point of view though - and this may be different for others - unlike Dawson, I didn't need science as a replacement for religion.

After the relative pop success that was 1973, James Bland er, Blunt is back to his usual form. That is, caterwauling empty lyrics over a nice acoustic backing. Tagged by gerardmcgarry under James Blunt, Music, Reviews, Singles,

Linkbait Is Internet Cancer

gerardmcgarry — Sun, 12 Nov 2006 04:27:00 -0500

However, recently the ProBlogging circle has become very dull, and I think it’s being eaten up by the linkbait virus. Everyone’s writing “How To’s” and “10 Ways” articles, because they’re a safe bet for Digg, reddit and del.icio.us popular. Tagged by gerardmcgarry under internet, blogging, seo, linkbait,

Beyonce Knowles - Irreplaceable

gerardmcgarry — Wed, 01 Nov 2006 07:13:00 -0500

I’m not afraid to admit that I was an early fan of Destiny’s Child. There was always something aluring about their ‘independent woman’ attitude, infectious tunes and skimpy clothes. Beyonce could kick my ass to the curb any day of the week… Tagged by gerardmcgarry under Beyonce Knowles, Destinys Child, Reviews, Music,

I find it useful to make a copy of the original database table and use that for the development work. Since I do all of my bespoke CMS development on hosted Microsoft SQL Server databases, I had to hunt down a quick method to copy an existing database table into a new one.

Spurred on by Matthew Ingram’s post on blogs affecting politics (and society), I’m wondering to what extent local (Northern Irish) bloggers can challenge traditional preconceptions in our wider society. Tagged by gerardmcgarry under northern-ireland, politics, blogs, blogging, change, culture,

How To Find The Time To Give Children Individual Attention » Family Of Five

gerardmcgarry — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 07:19:00 -0400

I’m a great believer in the school of thought that all children need regular, one to one, individual attention. I notice that if one of the kids is going through a spell of bad behaviour and we make sure they receive more individual time with us, it makes a big difference to their outlook and mood.
