My Apologies

I had one of those 24 hour health care appointments last night and today. Unfortunately, no internet was available. This was the first chance I had to get online. Barring nuclear armageddon or similar disasters, there will be an article...

Apology for Late Publication

I had this morning's article ready at 6:30, but the power went out at about 6:45, before the 7:00 publish time. Sorry for any inconvenience...

Why There Will Be No Morning Article Tomorrow

Family reasons are causing me to move out of San Diego. I won't have internet access after I publish this until at least sometime Friday evening, and for some reason my software is not publishing things I schedule ahead of...

Archive Pages Fixed (mostly)

For those who emailed me that the archive pages were broken, it now appears that I have finally found a workable although not perfect fix, and they are now readable again. It isn't perfect as the bottom part of one...

Project VALOUR-IT

(This will remain on top through Veteran's Day. Scroll down for daily posts) I think that one charitable fund raiser per year is both reasonable and an absolute limit, so I have to be very picky as to which...

Project Valour IT

(This will remain on top through Thanksgiving. Scroll Down for newer entries.) This cause means a lot to me. It seems the absolute minimum I can do for these wonderful people who are essential to this country. Project Valour IT...

Separated-at-birth twins get married Nope, wasn't talking about the Clintons. These folks weren't even from Arkansas! ********** Private Papers has a review - from a historian's viewpoint - of Jonah Goldberg's new book. The. Truth. Hurts. (in ways that lies...

Links and Minifeatures 10 18 Thursday

I think I've finally got essentially everything in place, as far as redirects and such goes. Between the last three times I checked my error logs (for both sites), I've come away with a grand total of one error...

Guidelines for Consumer Focused Carnival of Real Estate

Searchlight Crusade is the home of the Consumer Focused Carnival of Real Estate. The Consumer Focused Carnival of Real Estate is a moderated carnival, intended to showcase the very best articles in real estate from a consumer point of view....

Links and Minifeatures 10 09 Tuesday

To my readers: The number of 404 errors is falling like a rock, so I think I've got most of the pages redirected. I'm still checking the error logs once or twice a day, but there were only a couple...

Admin stuff: Sorry but I had to do away with Trackbacks. I was getting hundreds per day of spam, and hadn't had a real from from outside the site for months. Redirects of external links are largely complete. The URLs...

Links and Minifeatures 09 28 Friday

A coffee break for Sisyphus! Even if I don't drink coffee and that's making way too big a deal out of it, the internal links should now be all fixed. What this means is that for those folks who...

********** You Go Girl! Should teachers be allowed to pack a gun? Talks about an Oregon teacher who has filed suit to be allowed to carry on campus. ********** I was interviewed by Channel 10 news about the local...

Links and Minifeatures 09 12 Wednesday

My new host has a function that tracks the most recent few hundred visitors. I just went over this log, and counted a visit a "success" if any of the html codes for the visit was not 404. Success...

Progress Report

I believe that I have now fixed all of the internal links over on the danmelson.com website, and added tags.  Since there are less than half as many posts over there, I figured I'd start with the smaller site.  If...

Aggregators and Sidebars

Okay, I'm still struggling a little with a long blank space on one sidebar (composing this entry while the site republishes to see if I've fixed it), but it appears that all the aggregators and social media links are present,...

Domain Pointed to New Host

The domain has now been pointed at the new host.  Still have the vast majority of the work to do.  All of the internal links are broken, every post needs to be categorized, and I have to restore all of...

Service Interruptions

This site (and my other one) have been experiencing service interruptions of late. Furthermore, I've been trying to contact my hosting service for several months to send them money and upgrade my service plan, without response. It's time to consider...

My shoulder is hurting less than it was, although it's not fully healed yet, as Tuesday proved. Went to Sea World with my older daughter's first grade class as a parent volunteer. Talk about herding cats! Having done the "class...

Links and Minifeatures 04 01 Sunday (No Fooling)

I have reluctantly decided to start requiring comment accounts again. I was getting way too much comment spam for the level of real comments and even those who were real were often trying to drive their own agenda at the...
