I have finally fixed a bug with encoding of the blog. The content was always served as UTF-8, but the encoding was set to iso-8859-1. Editing the file nucleus/language/english.php helped. Your browsers should not be confused any more and Russian characters should work fine in the BlogRoll. Yabadabadu!

Working more productively with bash 2.x/3.x
This article is a must read for anyone who is using Bash shell. There are still probably a thing or two that you didn’t know.
Reign of Fire
Watched Reign of Fire on DVD.
One word to describe this film – unfinished. Unfinished as in work in progress. The original idea is good, but the plot has many holes and lacks details. There is no character development what-so-ever. Some good special effects with the dragons, but also need work. Plenty of fire during the course of the film, but there is no “temperature” feeling. Dialogues need more work. Good photography at the beginning and at the end of the movie, but practically nothing to pleasure your eyes with in the middle. Soundtrack could have been better.
5 out of 10.
