WordPress Showing 500 Server error

For several days I would access my blog here to see a HTTP/500 server error.  This would occur when accessing either the administrative console or when accessing the front page of the site.  After some digging I found that the default PHP memory limit was set to 16Mb.  It was recommended to boost the memory limit for WordPress to 128MB.  I did this by adding the single line of code to the wp-config.php file.

@ini_set("memory_limit","16M");
