Turns out the problem was an issue between APC and WP Super Cache. After WPSC tried to run garbage collection on cache files (a cron, configured in the plugin's settings), the server would end up then returning a 500 error. I'm still not en

"Facebook and Twitter seem to addict people to a stream of trivialities that wouldn't be worth turning over for in isolation." I wonder how modern 24/7 news organizations have affected people in this regard. Some people are addicted to news
