It is difficult to be happy as my favorite city sits in ruin with so many dead and displaced. My troubles are so minor.

Lakeview Levee Breach August 30, 2005 11:36 am

Does anyone have anything, a webcam (I know…no power…but that’s not entirely true: A blogger in New Orleans), blog, news or anything talking about the Lakeview Levee Breach?

This was posted 5 hours ago according to Google News

Engineers have contingencies for levee breaches such as the one that happened Monday, but it will take time and effort to get the heavy equipment into place to make the repair. Breach repair is part of the corps’ planning for recovery from catastrophic storms, but nobody Monday was able to say how long it would take to plug the hole, or how much water would get through it before that happened.

Some photos courtesy of Kim at Bacon and Ehs and a Google Earth picture showing the location of the breach.

As a web developer my bread and butter are my tools. The most important tools of course being my development servers. My linux server has decided that it is at the end of its life. It has picked a really bad time to get on its ice flow.

Morning Routine August 30, 2005 6:00 am

"Time to wake the doughnuts!"

Sometimes I think I dread the morning routine during the school year more than the kids. On days like today I would like to be under the covers but I need to be super focused working. I can’t sleep, but I can work and get the kids ready at the same time.
