Avocado, goat cheese, red quinoa salad

Quinoa -  simply delicious, with a little crunch and nutty flavour, makes a nice change from eating rice and cous cous. Add to that chunks of ripe avocado, pieces of creamy goats cheese, some garlicky pesto + toasted pine nuts, and you have a great salad!

I often find myself stuck for inspiration when it comes to lunch and craving something different, but at the same time not having hours to spend in the kitchen. This recipe checks all the boxes. I even made the quinoa the nightbefore, so it was just a matter of quickly chopping up the avo, toasting the nuts and throwing the salad together.

Thank god my avocado was ripe this time, as I have been on streak (more…)

This morning I successfully set up a clustered, high availability pair of Zimbra (VMware virtual) servers, synced with DRBD and using Heartbeat to failover to the secondary standby server.

This is a howto that tries to cover *all* the steps, as there seems to be a great series of Howto’s on the subject that in one way or another, leave something out with ‘I am assuming you already (insert service here) working and will not cover this’ clauses. In particular I ran into a few small hurdles with DRBD and hostnames and whatnot, so tried to document what I needed to do to make it work.

It is the last weekend of August 2009. It is also the last weekend in southern Afghanistan for the currently deployed US Air Force rescue crew 129th . They have been in Camp Bastion for four months and have taken on over 400 rescue missions in this deployment. The Pedros, as they are called, are well-known for their kamikaze- like operations. They are far from kamikaze-like themselves but their personalities stand out. These are their last days in the theatre. This time around.
