Tips For Resolving WWF Build Errors - Beta 1
So the WWF tools for VS.NET 2005 have some 'issues' that can rear their head as strange build errors.
The symptom is that your solution, which has no syntax errors at all, sometimes fails to build and just spouts random bollocks.
What seems to be happening is some wierd caching of types by the designer- reason being is that the designer has to build your custom activities at design time so that you get a nice design experience.
So here are a few tips if you are seeing wierd build errors.
#1. If you are closing VS.NET and/or your solution, make sure that all designer and code documents are closed.
#2. If it's behaving strangely have a crack and building some of the key projects (communication service interfaces, services and activities) individually.
3#. If none of that works, close all your documents, close VS.NET, reopen and rebuild the solution as soon as you re-open.

Day Light Savings Confuse You?
Thank the Lord you don't live in the USA...
Daylight Saving Time begins for most of the United States at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of April. Time reverts to standard time at 2 a.m. on the last Sunday of October.
Daylight Saving Time, for the U.S. and its territories, is NOT observed in Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Eastern Time Zone portion of the State of Indiana, and the state of Arizona (not the Navajo Indian Reservation, which does observe). Navajo Nation participates in the Daylight Saving Time policy, due to its large size and location in three states.
GAH! So if you're an indian you're on DST but if you're not you're not.... DOH!

Go Hard or Go Home
OK. So the week started out pretty well for me with my first sub 104kg weigh in. But then it kinda didn't really spark. I didn't do a heap or exercise (Gym Mon, Canoe Polo Tue, Run Wed, Run Fri) and so come this weekend I needed a jump start!
I got up this morning, went to the farmers market, had an apple strudel and some yummy russian deep fried pastie for breakfast...... and then ran/walked up Mt Cargil 5 minutes faster than ever before.... that's like 10% off my best time!
Just to prove it, here is my chart....

Star Aliance Gold Flying Air NZ and United.... read this....
United, bless their souls, have a set of 'Premium' Economy seats in the front of coach. These are not paid for extras but are instead dished out on a first come first served basis.
If you are flying through to a US destination on NZ/UA combined you should ring 0800 747 400 (press 1 then 1) and they will generally be nice and stick you in this section of the plane

Dear Air New Bloody Zealand
I'm currently sitting in the Maple Leaf (Air Canada) Lounge @ LAX. It is a tiny, overcrowded hovel with nasty processed cheese at the food bar.
But, it has Internet, whereas your swanky pants brand new luxurious and spacious lounge next door, does not.
Do you have rocks in your head or something?
You upgrade the 747 fleet and don't put internet in them..... OK... you could arguably make that decision on reasonable grounds...>. But to get to the new lounge and find no internet! Come on!
[UPDATE] They have hard wired internet here..... so bring your travel WiFi router (I left mine @ Home this time)......
