PolarLava::Blog

I've completed some necessary changes required to adequately utilize having multiple users on the blog.  This was a realization I had shortly after completing the user management. If you're going to have multiple users, you need to distinguish who posted what!

At the time I did the user management I was thinking of the longer term where someone could register and post comments more easily.  But I hadn't really thought about the mid-term of allowing multiple users to post to the blog.  It's a natural extension, thus a few changes to the entry table, the login process and a slew of changes to the add/edit/display functions and voilà, multi-user PolarBlog!

And the end result that you see?  Well, not much.  Just the "Posted by" line that you now see in the header of all of the posts.

With my upcoming trip to Hawaii I was searching for some activity information when I stumbled upon "The White-Trash Birthday Beard".  Quite amusing if you too enjoy a good chuckle at the expense of white trash everywhere.  And for those of you who may have a wife, is that response to shaving the beard sound familiar?  Thought so.

I've completed the User Management module!  This allows you to add, edit or delete users.  I believe this is the last big chunk of required code that provides an important basic function of the system.  At this point I believe the system is pretty well feature complete for what will be V1.0.  A couple of additional small things may make it in, but basically the focus now will be on installation, PWL migration and documentation.

Not Illinois or Massachusetts, but as in the Simpsons!  I can't imagine the amount of time that went into making this "Guide to Springfield USA".  Really cool stuff if you're a fan.  But in reality a likely colossal waste of time!  I'm just guessing, but it might benefit the guys who did this to read this and then head outside for a long, long walk or some other physical activity.

Welcome to Fat America!  There's certainly no denying it, that's for sure.  I guess I'm fortunate to not be a part of it, although an astounding 64.5% of Americans are over weight.  There's a very interesting (and long) article "The Way We Eat Now" over at Harvard Magazine that explains a lot about it.  How we got here, where we're going -all Americans overweight by 2040 or sooner!  Quite fascinating stuff.  So waddle your (likely) fat ass over and take a look.
