Cat Removal

Filed under: — elana @ 10:11 GMT

I am not a cat person. They make me sneeze. I don’t really like their attitude. With that prelude, I have just finished putting down about 4 different kids of cat repellent in our back and front yards. A woman who lives up the road (2 doors) seems to like cats. She says they’re not all hers, but they all hang out there (I guess it’s the cool cat’s house, and they can have a party whenever they want. She probably even buys them beer). So we have a ton of cats–like 15–that go tromping through our front and back yards all the time. And poop. Everywhere. It’s freaking nasty. P, when he was younger, would pick it up and play in it. And our shoes….argh.

So I put down some scatter crystals on the back walls and anywhere that cats walk into our property (they smell like citronella and look like chopped up lime jello). Then we sprinkled a mixture of flour, cayenne pepper and dry mustard where the cats *really* like to poop. Coated that area. And put down some crushed chili flakes in other spots, like under the rosebush that the birds like to hang out in. So we’ll see.

On the upside, it was a gorgeous day today. Sunny and blue sky, and relatively warm (like 7 C.) So we went out for a walk, bought some onions in the market in the park, and had bagels for lunch. Played outside for a while. You can always tell if it’s a nice Sunday cause our street is lined in cars on both sides. We’re one of the closest streets to the park and since the market is today, people park here. It gets a little crazy, but it’s nice to see so many families out for a walk.

Trying to block trackback spam

Filed under: — brendan @ 10:56 GMT

I’ve adjusted our WordPress server in an attempt to block trackback spams. It involves tricking the server to inject a comment into a post, used primarily to throw up a bunch of product plugs and ad links. Gah. Some folks have put a lot of effort into combating this sort of junk. The goal is to give us all some sort of shelter from the commercial-ridden world we live in. I wonder if this post will be the equivalent of cutting an artery to beckon the sharks?

Rip off!

Filed under: — elana @ 10:09 GMT

I need to get a few more birth certificates, cause in Ireland they require a birth cert with freaking everything you apply for. While looking online for how to to it, I found the Massachusetts Registry of Vital Stats. What a massive rip off! If I want a certified copy of my birth cert, it’s *at least* $28. Each. Man, Ireland only charges like 6 euro, and even with the exchange rate, it’s not *that* expensive. I’m too scared to go find out how much California charges for a copy of our wedding cert.

Create a peace file for your child

Filed under: — elana @ 09:51 GMT

Mothering Magazine this month has an article on how to create a peace file for your child. Basically, if your child (and I’m not just gonna say son, cause daughters will be part of the draft at some point) gets drafted and files for CO status, they need some type of documentation to show that. Mothering suggests tons of things, like teachers letters, photos of the child at peace rallies, homework/essays where peace is the main theme, etc. You get the idea. I think it’s brilliant, but also damn scary that we need to do something like that.

CACI: Children Accessing Controversial Information

Filed under: — brendan @ 07:44 GMT

In the mid-1990s, I picked up maintenance of a mailing list set up by some folks at MIT. Called CACI: Children Accessing Controversial Information, it was intended to offer a forum for parents, teachers, or just about anyone else to talk about the free anarchy of the Internet and its potential impact on children. With all the fear of porn and pedophilia lurking at every corner on the Net, we thought it’d be a fairly active list.

This is how the list describes itself:

CACI, Children Accessing Controversial Information, is a mailing list for
discussing children accessing controversial information through computer
networks. Can children be prevented from accessing materials which are
controversial? Is preventing access even desirable? We believe censorship is
not the answer. What alternatives do we have or could we provide? How do we
talk with children about these issues? What can we say to concerned parents
and school administrators? How and by whom are community standards set? We
hope to form a community of people interested in discussing these issues and
developing helpful materials.

For the last few years, however, it’s been pretty stagnant with only short bursts of conversation. I wonder if everyone is just so firmly set in their beliefs (filter my computer, don’t filter it, porn is good, porn will rot my child’s brain) that they see no need to talk about it and learn from others?

firefox is what billpay.ie needed

Filed under: — brendan @ 06:46 GMT

For ages, I’ve only been able to use billpay.ie with an old copy of the Opera browser (or, alternately, Internet Explorer in my VMware-resident copy of Win98). But today I tried using it to set up payment of our phone bill, and at the Confirm button, the JavaScript code didn’t fail!

Either they finally fixed the bug referring to an undeclared variable, or firefox is more lenient than previous Mozilla browsers—but I doubt firefox is letting people get away with bad code all the time. 🙂
