I've just released smallr. It lets you generate small web addresses with a keyword that make it easy to remember, will not break in emails and will never expire.
Basically is a TinyURL clone, with a keyword addon.
There will be an API for webservices with JSON and XML, eventually a Firefox extension.
Test it and send me some feedback.
I hope you enjoy it.
Looks pretty cool. You should send a press release or link to a proper post over to mashable.com and other web2.0 geek sites as to put things in motion.
This is just a 8h work. I want to add more features, the first will be a bookmarklet.
Very nice! All that pink hurts my eyes though ;)
Works good, and the site is superb.
Bookmarklet done. Doesn't work on IE. I fix that later.
The tag keyword is just a small step to word reservation or spam. I've just tagged "prtsc", "printscreen" and "prt-sc".
lovely. Like it a lot.
Now, tell us details of the techs used ;)
Hei, and if smallr.net is down, we have smallr.com just around the corner. ;-)
Congrats... although this is one of the most cloned services on the web. :-/
@Carlos: I'm an ass! When I bought the domain, the smallr.com site was down. So I didn't know what it was about. This is bad, really bad. And yes, the service is very cloned.
@Pedro: 8h of dev. with Django + Postgresql on Apache + mod_wsgi.
@vd: Is true. But is a nice feature.
Great idea and looks! :)
I personally don't like tinyurl and I'd gladly switch over to smallr :D
A Firefox extension would be GREAT!!! :D Then, getting Twitterific to use it would be awesome! ;) (all my tinyurls are generated by it...)
I'm even more excited because you used Django :D I'm curious as to the postgresql preference though (although I'm not a mysql fanboy myself and have actually been using postgres lately!)
Keep it up and keep us posted!
@Levi: Postgresql is my ORDMS of choice. I don't want to get political about this and go for technical reasons to use this or that.
Thanks for the support.
@Nuno: When I asked what had you using PostgreSQL I was actually looking for... a reason... honestly! :) Like I said, I've been using it lately for professional reasons, and would like to hear about what is making others use it... It seems to be pretty common ground that postgresql is better for big/intense DBs... :)
But point taken! ;) (won't bring it up again hehe)
Keep it up
At work we use Postgresql, right now I'm working on GIS applications, and with the Postgis extension do a nice job.
Basically, when I'm happy with something I don't change unless something better comes along ;)
I'm already an user and fan. Incredible how 8hours of work to clone such a simple webapp and add one little feature and you can make so many people happy ;-)

What is the difference between love and a crush?
Love is an emotion capturing the entire universe like tiniest creature on the earth. It exists in one or the other form in every someone's life. Love begins with an attraction for opposite sex which is often termed as crush (temporary love), which often women develop without difficulty. Now, crush offers two consequences: an individual, the end before reaching any height; as well as two, transcending to permanent really like. To achieve the permanent enjoy, a woman, usually faithful by nature, tries to help to make all her efforts inside direction to please her own man and create the girl place in his heart and soul. But men, such as other facet of a coin, are complex species on the earth. If you're a woman reading your content you can very well understand the basic theme of this article that says, 'what makes a individual fall in love'. We have now compiled some incredibly genuine, workable, in addition to efficient tips in charge of you to use. Before planning further, we would at the same time suggest you to use your own intellect to find the best supply of him. Some have attracted to the physique whereas others take into consideration intelligence and etiquettes for the reason that appealing virtues. Find what could be the real flip on for the man you've always dreamt of.
Be Honest
Honesty is the necessary element to get her fall in love with you. Search hard within yourself and try to find out why anyone should love you. Think of what's there that's unique only to you actually, and differentiates you from the other women on the market. This honest analysis of your personality would help you see yourself through other's eyes and can show you the areas it is possible to improve upon. Secondly, end up being true and sincere with the man you've always wanted. Even if what you come to feel is divergent from the opinion, speak increase your view point. In the same way, honesty in your body words and actions will certainly impress him.
Recognize His or her Value
Tell him that you appreciate him and his results; demonstrate that you price his efforts. Just remember that men like to 'care' as well as 'protect' others. Ask him to assist you to in the smallest with matters as it will always make him feel priceless and recognized. And there's a possibility that he may begin liking you back again for the realisation with his worth.
Appreciate Him
Sure, men are emotional just like fairer sex. Men and women many a times misunderstand them all as rigid and much from feelings, but that is not the reality. In addition, they like to be pampered plus loved. Appreciate him or her when you find some thing appealing and amazing in his personality. Never overdo this. Furthermore, do not wait for other individual to make the compliment. You may not get noticed and could be considered as copying various other person's views.
Provide Him or her Emotional Safety
Men need to have a 'safe zone' where they can sleep after fighting while using entire world. They search for company of someone utilizing whom they can expend good time without being questioned and compared. It is somewhat and practical, it's really? So, next time as he comes before you, viewed him the safe zone where he'll feel emotionally safe.
Know Him
Yet another important tip is to know them. It does not imply being aware of his address as well as which Empire's dynasty he or she belongs to. Rather to expect knowing his identity, tastes, and preferences. Find out his needs, fun things he / she loves to do, his favourite pastime, and his awesome taste in music. Endeavor to develop interest in what he likes to implement it that you two might hit it off jointly. However, if there's something just can't work after, or don't want to, then it's better not to take this into account.
Display Your Girly Strength
Your feminine power is the key to win over him whether you imagine it or not. Indicate that you are emotionally, good and have attained security and maturity. After you draw a picture of yours as a strong sweetheart with loving life he would get fascinated by you with a wish to be a part of it. On the flip side, if you present yourself in advance of him as a sufferer of misfortune, trying to get someone's ear to hear all her miseries, he'll it goes without saying be repelled.
Be Yourself
No matter whether you're keen on him or you think that he is the one without the need of whom you find yourself meaningless, always admiration your feelings and contemplating. Stand by your section and do not change your sights only in order to impress him. Also, take into account not to allow him to hassle you just because you have beneficial feelings for the pup. Love yourself and more importantly cherish yourself for the purpose God
has presented on you.
Stay positive and also forward looking even when the worse may happen. Even if you can't pursue your ex after a long seek out, be at peace with yourself. Always remember, 'Whatever happens take place for Good'!

When Home inspectors come to your door, you expect a thorough investigation of what could be wrong with your premise. The inspectors do their inspection, and maybe you find that they did not get to the depth of it; the reason behind this is the lack of thermal imaging or an infrared inspection. Here are the four reasons why it is important to enlist infrared thermal imaging when doing home inspections. Read more

FULLERTON, Calif. (Mar. 13, 2017) –– The Fullerton Museum Center is proud to announce it will host a new exhibit, "Audio's Visuals: The Photography of Henry Diltz," from April 15, 2017 through July 9, 2017.
Audios Visuals is a collection of photographs, albums, and ephemera that centers on the images from the 1960s. Henry Diltz's photos dominated this converging ground of visual art and music, and for decades defined the vibrant folk counterculture scene of southern California. Diltz' work has graced hundreds of album covers, from James Taylor's pensive gaze on Sweet Baby James to the Eagles dressed as outlaws for their album Desperado as well as The Doors Morrison Hotel.
Today, Henry continues to photograph musicians and celebrities across the globe. His work can be seen and purchased at any of his three Morrison Hotel Galleries in New York, Los Angeles, and Maui. The Fullerton Museum Center is proud to partner with LA based gallery owner and curator, Greg Escalante for what is mounting into an epic celebration of photography, music, art, and attitude. Many of these images and artifacts including hand written notebooks, vintage cameras and handmade jewelry will be on display to the public for the first time.
The Fullerton Museum Center is located in the heart of Downtown Fullerton. Audios Visuals opening reception will be held on April 15, 2017 with a preview of the exhibition, live band, food and a curator's talk.

She perceived it as light at first sight, like the morning was made
to rescue her from the perennial, sleepless nights, and like when
she was frozen down a pitch black hole and squinted at the sliver of
a sunbeam;
and then she said he wore white,
exactly looking like an angel,
for a short moment that seemed to last, her life depended on just
staring at him
She believed she'd already seen him but wished they'd met before
She saw a new scene of an instant memory
Her heart recalls it was the beginning, but her soul knew
it was returning to something-
something that's always been with her time
-Yours truly
What if today is just a dream and then we all wake up not knowing anyone at all? Just what if somewhere we're all deeply asleep?
If today is just a giant illusory creation with our hands that hold the power to draw our fates I dare to follow the trails to what is passionately dancing in my soul, I fear not a single thing to exist. If today is all we could ever have to create, I'd give my all if my heart's at stake. -Yours truly

My entry for the One Page Dungeon Contest 2010: A small module taking a group of low to mid-level characters through a cave system. I noticed during writing this little dungeon how used I am, as a referee,still thinking in DSA's terms. Where others would have put in a lot of weird and uncommon monsters more, my enemies are a bit more mundane; if one can call undead bears mundane… (also the sheer mass of creatures is showing the D&D).
This design paradigm is normal for The Dark Eye, as most gamemasters notice pretty soon how hard it is to write extraordinary creatures and plots without completely breaking the whole setting. I kept myself mostly to usual fantasy fare with the monsters in that module. A few were not in the Labyrinth Lord basic rules (which I used as reference); that won't matter, I will post writeups on those the next few days.
The map was created with Dungeon Crafter v1.4.1 (the free one), then finished off in GIMP. I noticed that at least when using it under WINE I cannot turn tiles in Dungeon Crafter, or even save a map, for reasons unknown, so the mapping took longer than I planned and still is lacking something. Anybody got a better mapper that's also usable on a Linux system?

Social Security and Social Services in France
Social Security and Social Services in France
Social Security and social services are organized more intimately in France than in the United States. It is interesting and instructive to evaluate the consequences of public policies somewhat different from ours. The analysis which follows deals with three general areas. Although its significance was not perceived until the study was underway, the first objective is to grasp French social security as an organic entity. This involves understanding the underlying ideology and its relationship to policy and practice. Experience suggests that, otherwise, superficial differences and similarities prove highly misleading. Second, the French rely upon a particular instrument, family unions, to form their family policy. Because family unions sensitively illustrate French ideology and as they are designed to influence social security, an evaluation of their effect is also attempted. Finally, we shall attempt to evaluate the effects of social services and social security upon each other.
The basic period of study in France on which this report is based was 10 weeks during the summer of 1963. Data were checked during a brief visit in February 1964. As French social security evolves rapidly, the statistics and even the relationships described here will not be current quite so long as one ordinarily assumes. The material that follows does not attempt to describe the comprehensive structure of French social security. Basic program description is not an objective; however, the basic provisions and relationships are outlined in two charts at the conclusion of this report. Also, a narrative description in English, called Social Security in France, is available from French information sources and the Ministry of Labor and Social Security in Paris.

Morning glowers!
So I've just done workout B for the first time and to say that I struggled is an understatement! I feel quite down and just completely unfit afterwards, anyone else feel the same? I would imagine they get easier with time but I'm so glad I was alone as it was embarrassing 🙈 xx
I was the same but I did it and it will only get easier :-)
But you did it! And t was your first time! Think of first day at school, or driving or cooking. You feel completely out on tune but then it just gets easier and easier. Just congratulate yourself that you completed it and laugh at the minor mishaps. I went to a step class the other day and I felt so uncoordinated, like I had two left feet. I work out every day, weights, yoga, rebound classes and yet there I was having no clue on how to do anything correctly. I felt like an elephant at a china store but you know what? It was fun nonetheless so I'm going back. The truth is no one cares how coordinated or fit you are. Just hang in there!

It doesn't seem a week goes by without Capcom announcing something new in regards to Street Fighter V and this week is no different as Capcom took to EVO 2015 to reveal 3 key changes to the long running franchise.
- The initial release of Street Fighter V will be the only disc you'll ever need to own.
- All balance and system adjustments for Street Fighter V will be available for free.
- All post-launch gameplay related content will be accessible for free by playing the game.
The last point is the most important one here as it clearly shows Capcom are moving away from the more traditional DLC model and towards the popular mobile model which offers all content to players, either through the investment of time or if you're in a hurry cash. A fact Capcom accentuated by commenting that, if you do decide to purchase new content instead of earning it, you'll be able to purchase content individually and ignore the items you don't want.
Street Fighter V will be released on the Playstation 4 and PC next year, lunching with 16 playable characters, 4 of which will be brand new.

There have been requests for my menu for Easter Dinner. So, I am posting it here. (Warning: this is not vegetarian!)
Our family loves a good feast. We have a feast on Thanksgiving (turkey and all the trimmings and way too many pies), Christmas (ham and lots of yummies and more pie), and Easter.
Easter Dinner normally includes lamb, asparagus, and other side dishes. This year I am trying some new recipes – I will post the links to them, but I can't tell you how good they are yet.
The menu:
Cinnamon Roll Bunnies (http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Cinnamon-Roll-Bunnies)
Mustard Dill Tortellini Skewers (http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/mustard-dill-tortellini-salad-skewers-10000001879924/)
Fruit tray
Veggie tray
Garlic Roasted Lamb with Apple Mint Jelly
Steamed Asparagus with butter and parmesan cheese
"Everything Stuffing" (although it should be called dressing because it isn't going inside anything) (http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/-Everything–Stuffing)
Roasted Fingerlings and Green Beans with Creamy Tarragon Dressing (http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/roasted-fingerlings-green-beans-with-creamy-tarragon-dressing-10000001723321/)
Apricot-Glazed Carrots (http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/apricot-glazed-carrots-10000000257693/)
Cheddar Bay Biscuits (this is a mix from Red Lobster)
Hazelnut Cookies
Pie – flavor still to be decided
The Lamb Recipe
This is something I learned from a friend many years ago and I have adapted a bit.
1 boneless leg of lamb
8-12 (or more) cloves garlic
2-3 Tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 2-3 springs fresh thyme)
1 Tablespoon dried rosemary (or 4-5 springs fresh rosemary)
Start with a boneless leg of lamb. Remove it from any packaging but leave it in the string net holding it together.
Rinse it. Place it in the baking pan.
Peel several cloves of garlic (how many depends on how much you like garic and how big the lamb is. I try to include 8 -12 cloves)
With a paring knife make one crosswise cut (stab the knife into the lamb once then a second time perpendicular to the first cut) for each clove of garlic and press the clove into the hole you made. Repeat for each clove of garlic.
Rub the lamb with olive oil (2-3 tablespoons). Sprinkle with course ground sea salt, fresh ground pepper, thyme (~ 1 teaspoon), and rosemary (~ 1 Tablespoon). If you have fresh thyme and rosemary use 3 – 4 springs of each and place across the top of the lamb.
Roast in a 325 degree oven. I always have to look up the time (http://www.bhg.com/decorating/roasting-rules/?page=2) and it varies depending on the size of your lamb. You want to take it to an internal temperature of 145-170 and this will take between 2 and 4 hours. Use a meat thermometer to make sure. I usually stop the cooking at about 160.
When the internal temperature is reached, remove the lamb from the oven and let sit for a few minutes. Then slice and serve with mint jelly on the side.

Author's Note: Hey people!!! I came up with this maybe stupid idea. I'm going to write 150 chapters of a novel but in each chapter, it will contain a different story. Enjoy.
Story 1: Unexpected
Kelly and her husband Blake and her seven year old daughter was decorating a christmas tree. Gold and Green. Unusual colors but it looked good on the tree. Elizabeth jumped up and down excitedly. They all heard a knock on the door. Blake kissed Kelly on the lips before getting up. As soon as Blake opened the door, A man named Dawson hit him in the head with his gun. Blake fell down. Kelly screamed and grabbed Elizabeth and ran into their bedroom. Blake spit out some blood that dripped out of his mouth. He looked up at Dawson and Dawson kicked Blake in his mouth. Blake fell back down as more blood formed in his mouth. He coughed some of it up. Two other guys were with Dawson. Lucas and Kenny. "Go get that bitch." Dawson told them. They both went and tried to open the door to Kelly and Blake's bedroom. But she locked it. Kelly opened the closet door and looked at Elizabeth. "Get in, baby." Elizabeth gave her mother a pleading expression. "No mommy. Please. I don't want to go in there." She said. Kelly placed both her hands on her daughter's face. "Baby. I need you to go in there. It's not safe. I promise we'll get through this." She hugged Elizabeth, forced her into the closet and then shut the door. Kelly,then, reached under the bed and grabbed the gun. She cocked it and gripped it tightly in her hand.
"I want the money." Dawson said to Blake. Blake groaned in pain and then his eyes went to Dawson. "I don't have the money." He admitted. Dawson laughed and then kicked Blake in the stomach. "If you do not give me the money. I'm going to go into that fucking bedroom and fuck your wife and your daughter now tell me where the fucking money is!" Dawson yelled. Blake felt pain in his stomach and he coughed up some more blood. "Fuck you." He said in a shaky voice. Anger flashed across Dawson's face. "Tell me that again and watch I pull this fucking trigger." Dawson said holding the gun against Blake's forehead. Blake knew Dawson for years and knew he wouldn't kill him. He didn't have the balls. "I said 'fuck yo-" Dawson pulled the trigger and Blake's head slammed onto the floor with a heavy force. Blood poured out of the hole that was pierced in Blake's forehead.
Dawson cocked the gun again and left Blake dead on the floor. "Open this door you fucking cunt!" Lucas yelled on the other side of the door from Kelly's room. Dawson aimed the gun to the lock and pulled the trigger. He turned the knob and forced the door open. Kelly pointed the gun to Dawson. Her hand was shaking. Dawson laughed. "Are you going to shoot me?" He asked. Kelly didn't answer. "Get the girl from the closet." Dawson said to Lucas and Kenny but he kept his eyes on Kelly. How did he know Elizabeth was in the closet? Kelly thought to herself. Lucas, roughly grabbed Elizabeth's arm. She screamed and Lucas raised his hand and slapped her. "Don't you touch her." Kelly threatened. Dawson nodded once at Kenney and then Kenny walked over and back hand slapped Kelly. She fell on the floor with a hard thud. "Mommy!" Elizabeth cried. Kelly held her cheek and slowly got back up. Kenny had Kelly's gun in his hand and he pointed it to Elizabeth. "Oh no. Please don't." Kelly said. "We want to know where the money is. Your husband didn't tell us and now........he's gone." Said Dawson. A small smirk appearing on his face. Kelly's eyes watered. "No. Oh my god." She said. Lucas walked over and grabbed Kelly's arms and kept her in his grip. "Let go of me." She said.
"Tell us right now, where the money is." Dawson said. Kelly sniffed. "I don't fucking know!" She screamed. Lucas pulled the trigger and emptied a bullet into Elizabeth's head. "No!" Kelly screamed. Elizabeth fell to the floor, her eyes wide open and with blood pouring out of her head. Kelly could not believe what she has just witnessed. "No!" She screamed. She started fighting Lucas. Hitting and kicking him. "You motherfuckers! Fuck you! Fuck you!" She cried. Lucas and Kenny held her down on the wooden floor and Dawson came over and looked down at Kelly. "I'll fucking kill you." She threatened. Dawson aimed the gun at her. "Not before I kill you first, bitch." Dawson said and he pulled the trigger putting a bullet in Kelly's head. Her head turned to the side and her eyes closed. Dawson stared down at Kelly. He didn't only do this because Blake owed him money. But also because Kelly left him for Blake and he wanted revenge. Lucas, Kenny and Dawson got rid of the bodies thoroughly and no one has ever found them.

Idea on 150 chapters ~ that's sounds tough, although I plotted 30 chapters for "Lifelines" and ended with 80 something...
Intresting and tragic, it looked like a random attack until you disclosed the motive... I like it. Daring to kill the daughter first, most writers perfer to pullpunch but you are roundhouse kicking.
My only suggestion is maybe spredout the paragraphs when you have more two more more people talking it becomes confusing to read at times.

Cities of Wonder copies have arrived
Doing print copies through KDP's print-on-demand service (as with Createspace previously) always gives you this moment of wondering how the final product will look. You can examine the pdfs all you want, launch the viewer, order proof copies. But until you have the final version in hand, it always feels a little surreal, a little too unknown.
So I love finally getting my hands on copies of the books. I'm impressed with the quality of the books KDP produces. These chapbooks look very good, inside and out.
Get your copy today!

Unless you're sitting naked in the woods reading a transcription of this on a piece of bark marked by charcoal stick, everything around you, everything you're touching, seeing, tasting (keep it clean) and probably hearing has been touched by an artist. Designers are in my humble estimation, the most ubiquitous professionals in our lives. One of them designed your car, couch and computer; your underwear, umbrella and your unicycle; your glasses, gummy bears and that damn google icon; and yes, even the imprint on your toilet paper. Someone took their precious time and talent to design little flower art on that soft cushy paper used for swabbing nastiness. America is wonderful, indeed.
And do you find this at all surprising? Not the tush art, you spaz, the universality of art and artists. They are everywhere! But you don't see these anonymous immortals, do you? (Or do you?) Later on, when I have more time I'll tell you what I think about where they are and why. For now, let's just grab (in the best sense of the word) the closest artist and give them a hugenormous hug, kiss, handshake, wink, bonus, raise, paid vacation or whatever gesture of fondness and gratitude may be appropriate. I expect full reports and photos from each of you. Oh. If you happen to be the artist in closest proximity to yourself, please use good judgment. Otherwise, don't send photos. Thanks and peace.

BOOK REVIEW: Today I Am Carey
Today I Am Carey by Martin L. Shoemaker (SF Novel, March 2019). The idea of the android/robot/Artificial Intelligence that is given or develops human emotions has been a recurrent trope since the genre's pulp era, if not earlier. "I, Robot" (the short story from the 1930's, not the title of the later Asimov collection) comes immediately […]Read more "BOOK REVIEW: Today I Am Carey"

Fishing season opened last weekend. Of course, Leonard HAD to do some catch and release fishing on Ash Creek (Lassen County CA) opening day. For me, the wildflowers were blooming in profusion!
It was a beautiful day and the air was thick with insects. One of the most "spectacular" insect this time of the year is the giant salmonfly (Pteronarcys californica), a type of stonefly. Over two inches long, this resident of Western North America is difficult to ignore, especially when it lands on you.
Giant salmonflies require streams and rivers with cool, rapidly flowing water that is well oxygenated.
The giant salmonfly has three life stages: egg, nymph and adult. Adults have two "tails", two pair of wings kept flat against the body when at rest and orange abdomen, leg joints and thorax joints. The remainder of the body is brown. The adults spend most of their time on streamside foliage where mating occurs. Egg-laden females return to the water with their abdomen hanging down and briefly touch the water and release an egg cluster, which then sinks to the bottom.
The nymphs which hatch from the eggs are brown and take two to four years to mature, depending on temperature and food availability. Living under or clinging to the base of rocks and stones in the water, giant stonefly nymphs eat partially degraded stream debris. When mature the nymph crawls to the shore or onto a rock above the water where its exoskeleton splits to release an adult that is ready to mate. Depending on the water temperature, the heaviest emergence of giant salmonflies occurs at dawn or dusk.
Giant salmonfly nymphs or adults are available to trout throughout the year. The large size and distinctive coloration of a giant salmonfly make their "hatch" difficult to miss.

This is a graphic of the gear that, James Holmes, the Aurora, Colorado shooter had on him during his shooting spree:
This graphic can be found at: http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/07/25/graphic-james-holmes-was-a-man-with-a-plan/
If you consider that at least three of the last big mass shooting incidents were done by someone who bought his gun LEGALLY (Virginia Tech's Seung-Hui Cho, Tucson's Jared Laughner, and Aurora's James Holmes), you would think that some alarms would be going off in people's heads in the US. Yet, the usual reaction of "oh, there's nothing that can be done about this sort of thing" is once again to be heard.
Sure, there will be some people talking about actually doing something about firearms, but it will once again go quiet once all the outrage dies out. That is quite a difference from how these incidents are handled in other parts of the world–especially one's that share a heritage with the US. Hugerford saw a tightening of UK gun laws, Dunblane led to pretty much all handguns being taken from private possession in the UK, And The Port Arthur incident saw Australia's gun laws tighten up intensely in less than a year. But, the US averages 20 mass shootings a year. The Brady Campaign has a tally of these since 2005.
Mother Jones has an interactive map of mass shootings in the US since 1982. Some estimate the figure to have been 125 Mass Killings since Columbine: I don'tthink the number is that low. Mother Jones found that out of the 132 guns possessed by the killers, more than three quarters were obtained legally. The arsenal included dozens of assault weapons and high-powered handguns. (See charts below.) Just as Jeffrey Weise used a .40-caliber Glock to massacre students in Red Lake, Minnesota, in 2005, so too did James Holmes when blasting away at his victims in a darkened movie theater. Mother Jones also found that half of the cases involved school or workplace shootings (11 and 17, respectively); the other 28 cases took place in locations including shopping malls, restaurants, government buildings, and military bases. Only one of the killers was a woman. (See Goleta, Calif., in 2006.)
Of course, that is a limited guide to mass shootings since very few people have an accurate grasp on how much firearms harm society, and that's the way the gun lobby would like it. Like the climate denial crowd, they want to flood the marketplace of ideas with shit science. The fact that the NRA is so terrified of correct and accurate numbers being collected that they obstruct any legislative attempt to do so is as clear a red flag that they know an informed public will not follow, support or agree with them as you could ask for as an indicator of a serious problem. But, like climate change, the truth is out there (I give a pitch for this blog) if one is willing to sift through an internet filled with loads of bullshit.
Fact is, the carnage has been going on at least since the 1978, but probably much longer, yet no one wants to do anything about it. There is too much fantasy out there about people being able to outshoot the gunman, which is total crap in this case since they would have had to do it through a haze of tear gas. Unfortunately, it is the fantasy which will win out in all this as it always has seemed to have done in recent years.
But, as the graphic says: "By looking closely at Holmes' ammunition and equipment, it becomes clear the attack at the movie theatre could have been much worse." The question is when will it be so bad that people in the US will finally feel some outrage at the carnage happening around them and say enough?

His Surgery Brings A Smile
By Rachael Reynolds, Journal writer
At the tender age of 10, little Luke O'Lena has endured half a dozen major surgeries to help symmetrize his face.
Luke was born with a rare condition that left the right side of his face oddly unproportionate to the other.
Luke had a facial bone deficiency, making his right side crooked and caved in. A facial cleft left his lip split to his nose, as with his tongue, back to his throat. His nose and eyelid were also affected by the cleft, and he was born with only one ear and deaf. He required extensive reconstructive surgery.
Luke's problems were a result of a rare combination of the numerous clefts and a disorder called hemiafacial microsomia.
Surgery by surgery he's gotten closer and closer to looking like a normal little 10-year-old. But an experimental device on Luke's face is bringing him the closest.
"The doctors are getting us ready for the senior prom," said Luke's mother Karen, who is a teacher's aide for the Kankakee school district.
The device emplaced in Luke's most recent June surgery is the first one of its kind to be used in the Chicago area. McKay McKinnon, M.D., Luke's surgeon at the University of Chicago Children's Hospital, said the procedure has been used successfully, but only on a few hundred patients.
The O'Lenas, who live in St. Anne, were tempted with the procedure two years ago, but McKinnon wanted to begin on Luke only after he returned from Europe with his team, training and studying the procedure and its results.
It involves placing metal screw pins through the jaw bone, and then fracturing the bone between them. The pins move apart when twisting a gear. Instead of the fracture being moved closer like in regular healing, it is being manipulatively extended.
"What we're essentially doing is stretching the bones, forcing his face to grow," said Dr. Neil Warshawsky, Luke's orthodontist, who works closely with Dr. McKinnon.
Known as distraction in the medical world, it was first introduced by a Russian surgeon, Dr. Ilizarov, and used effectively for over 20 years on orthopedic patients in lengthening a limb shorter than the other.
Technology has transferred the procedure to the facial skeleton, and has been used clinically in the last few years, and successfully on animals.
But since it is so new when used on facial bones, "we are still learning a great deal about it," McKinnon said.
It will elongate Luke's jawbone in three directions. Earlier devices were only uni-directional.
Luke's experimental and sophisticated device actually has three gears that will allow this dimensional movement, done at home with by his mother. Karen twists the screw several times a day, each time slightly breaking Luke's jaw, which ultimately triggers a gradual growth of bone.
The unusual apparatus, called a distractor, will lengthen Luke's jaw over several weeks without having to borrow more bone grafts, McKinnon explained. Luke has already had two grafts to his jaw, using a rib and part of his skull.
This distractor will expand the bone at a controlled rate of one millimeter each day, and though it will require a few weeks more, ''there have been signs of bone consolidation,'' McKinnon said.
Because of Luke's crowded teeth, he has a second expander device attached to his permanent teeth.
And outstanding results have occurred. When he's older, Luke may only need braces, opposed to more jaw surgery.. "His teeth are straightening out quite nicely," Warshawsky said. "It's very obvious that it's working from the dental side."
Though doctors don't know the full extent of the results, "we do expect it to make up for lost bone that he's missing," McKinnon said.
Luke's surgery was well-timed to allow his involvement in soccer and Little League now that he's back at Clifton Grade School. Over the summer, it hasn't affected playing in the yard with his friends or 12-year-old brother, Evan, whom Luke especially looks up to.
"He doesn't complain one bit," said Luke's father, John, who works at Armstong. Through it all, Luke has been a trooper. Despite the unusual and conspicuous device on his face, "everyone's accepting of him. He's a very happy boy."
But in Luke's early years, Karen was hurting. "I know it's terrible, but I went through a time, thinking, 'Why did he live?' I went through a lot of hate and guilt. Luke looked in the mirror one day, and said, 'Mommy, my smile's getting straight.' It's all worth it."
The O'Lenas once met a couple whose child had similar problems as Luke; but when they saw his progress, they were stunned by the admirable transformation.
"Luke showed them a picture and said, 'I used to look like that.' I just want other parents to know that there is help out there,'' Karen said. ''I want them to know never to give up hope."
Luke is still growing, though, which may require additional bone distraction in the future because of the lack of genetic information telling his face to grow.
But McKinnon expects even more sophisticated devices to become available, shortening the time needed to complete such complex reconstruction.
"Luke will be ready for that prom," McKinnon said.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Fishing' started by Joseph, May 25, 2018.
I mostly see kayaks and short trips, Anyone make some distance in there boat?
Wolf creek dam to burksville boat ramp around 20 miles. Took us around 13 hours in 3 canoes. Every one should make this trip once.
Was fishing below lock 5 on green. Helped a guy pack his canoe and gear around lock. He was doing the whole river on one trip. Started at green river lake.
Idk how long that would take but your arms and shoulders are gonna get a good workout
That was probably 12-13 years ago. He said how long he had been on the water and long he thought it was going to take. But I don't remember. Seems like weeks.
Me and a friend spoke about getting some last year but it just didn't happen, He had a little more busy life and wasent too interested in doing any longer trips
Used to when I was in college. I've done a few multi day trips on elk horn and the Cumberland. Sad to say my canoe hasn't been in the water in a few years. Just a lack of time.
I wouldn't mind doing some multi day trips and some fishing. Just bring a sack of potatoes.

Although this article is about an official minifigure, it never existed in physical form, or appeared in any official LEGO sets.
- "Aren't you the cutest thing! You're just my son's type."
- ―Edna to Nya
Edna Walker is a minifigure from Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu. She is Jay's mother and the wife of Ed Walker.
Edna along with her husband Ed own Ed N' Edna's Scrap N'Junk. She always has to write things down for Ed Walker (Such as needing a better bumper). She has her first appearance in Snakebit when she and Ed Walker come for a tour of Destiny's Bounty. She then leaves and goes into the camper before getting attacked by the Fangpyre with Ed Walker. They end up getting bitten by Fangdam, Fang-Suei, and Snappa. Later the ninjas Sensei Wu and Nya find them chained up in a portapotty, and they are turning into Fangpyre. Then the Fangpyre (and Lloyd) attack again with their vehicles. Then the ninjas chase the Fangpyre for there staff. After that, she (along with Ed Walker,Sensei Wu, and Nya) caught the ninjas. They then went back to Destiny's Bounty and reversed the bite. She then was seen in The Royal Blacksmiths cheering for Spin Harmony. She was seen later, in Day of The Great Devourer, in her car with Ed almost getting eaten by The Great Devourer but saved by Jay. Then in Ninjaball Run she signs up with Ed and they give the ninja gas right before they crash. Her latest appearance was in The Last Voyage, where she told Jay to pack an extra pair of underwear. Jay, embarrassed, tells his mom he did, when in fact he actually didn't. This comment comes back later in the episode when Jay gets his underwear soaked by a storm on the Destiny's Bounty on their way to Darkness Island. He later steals a pair of underwear from Dr. Julien's.

Trump Administration Wants More Time to Mull Overtime Rule
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The United States Justice Department wants a Louisiana federal appeals court to pause a case challenging the Labor Department's pending overtime rule so the Trump administration can decide whether to defend that rule, reported Bloomberg BNA.
On Jan. 25, Justice Department lawyers asked the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit a 30-day extension on the deadline to file a brief in the case, Nevada v. DOL, 5th Cir., No. 16-41606).
"We're concerned that they're asking for more time because they're considering reversing their strong support for this important worker protection," Adina Rosenbaum, an attorney for Public Citizen Litigation Group, told the news outlet. On behalf of congressional Democrats, Public Citizen has filed a friend of the court brief requesting that the court lift an injunction currently blocking the rule from going into effect.
President Trump's nominee for Secretary of Labor, Andrew Puzder, is one of multiple business leaders who have criticized the overtime rule, which would have made approximately four million more workers eligible for overtime pay starting in December.
On Nov. 22, Judge Amos Mazzant ruled that the Department of Labor exceeded its authority by focusing on salaries to determine whether employees are eligible for overtime pay or not. Mazzant stated that the department should instead examine the duties that employees perform to determine if they qualify as "executive, administrative or professional" workers who are exempt from overtime requirements.
Judge Mazzant previously declined the Department of Labor's request to put the case on hold pending the Fifth Circuit's review of the temporary injunction.
If granted, the extension would move the government's next filing deadline to March 2.

Devas exist in the five elements (earth, water, air, fire and ether) in this world. In Svarga Loka, they have an individual form. They do not have bodies physically constituted like us by five elements but have effulgent forms. They do not need material food to survive as we do. But they depend on humans for their well-being, which is provided by the performance of various Yagnas (Vedic rituals). They also have desires and needs. Although they are superior to us, their power is limited. In the case of worshiping Devas, yagna means offering libation to each Deva through mantras. Like substances offered in sacrifice, the words of these mantras constitute food for the Devas, helping them to keep their power. In Yagna, the chant of a particular mantra pertaining to a particular Deva invokes that Deva. Only oblations made through Agni (fire) along with the chant of the prescribed mantra will be in a desirable form for the Devas to receive.
Agni converts the oblation to a suitable state before passing it on to the Devas, precisely the way the digestive organs convert the gross food we eat into different forms before absorption by body systems. These yagnas to the Devas have threefold advantages. One is to ensure our well-being and the well-being of those around us through the grace of the Devas while living in this world.
The second advantage is to live happily after death in the worlds of the Devas. This life in the world of the Devas (Svarga Loka) is not forever. We can live only as long as our merits last. The happiness and enjoyment is in no way comparable to the total bliss of the union with Brahman. Nevertheless, life in Svarga Loka is paradise compared to the existence on Earth. Thus performing Yagna with a desire for happiness of paradise is suitable for some of us.
The third is the most important advantage, that is, performing yagna without desiring any rewards and gains. It is the way to purification of the mind. Even in a state of enlightenment, ego is not destroyed. It is there in a satvic (purified) form. Similarly, the mind is also controlled by the dictates of pure reason. When this happens, the mental process is out of bondage and becomes a basis for doing good to the world. This in turn takes the seeker on the path of knowledge, whose destination is Mukti or total bliss. In short, the seeker merges with the Infinite.
There are several types of important Yagnas such as the Rajasuya Yagna, Asvamedha Yagna, Putrakameshti Yagna, Sarpa Yagna, Satra Yagna, and Svargarohana Yagna. In ancient times, several emperors performed the Asvamedha Yagna (the horse sacrifice). For example, Sri Rama, Yudhisthira, Pushyamitra Sunga, Vikramaditya and Salivahana all performed this Yagna, which is performed to channel the energies of the performer and to unite the people of the empire.
Rajasuya Yagna is performed by kings in order to establish their emperorship, to integrate factions under their rule, and to distribute wealth to many people. Yudhishthira of the Pandavas performed this Yagna. Sri Rama and his three brothers were born as a result of Putarakameshsti Yagna undertaken by King Dasaratha of the Ramayana. Also, in Mahabharata, we learn that the King Drupada did this Yagna, the result being the birth of Draupadi and Drishtadhyumna.
Janamejaya, the son of Emperor Parikshit of Mahabharata, did Sarpa Yagna to eliminate all serpents from the Earth. He was consumed with anger because of the death of his father by a great serpent. Of course, it was stopped by the Devas since it was unnatural and against nature. This gives an idea about the kinds of Yagnas one can do. There are also simple Yagnas that give small results. More often than not, Yagnas are performed to do good to the humanity.
