We were shocked about the terrorist attack on Boston on April 15, 2013.

Our thoughts are with the victims.

Should the USA send weapons to Syria?

======================
Written by Cynthia Fridsma
==================

In the Washington Post, I read an article that the United States should step up its involvement in the conflict in Syria. Sen. John McCain, charged that President Obama has failed to follow through on a statement that the use of chemical weapons in the conflict would constitute a “red line.”

I agree with Sen. McCain that the use of chemical weapons is wrong. But is sending weapons to the rebels a good idea? I don't think so Mr. McCain. Why? Chances are that these weapons will be used against the USA in the future. Among the rebels, there are a lot of people fighting the "jihad." It's quite possible that some of them have connections with Al-Qaeda.

A nightmare in NEWTOWN, Connecticut

====================
written by Cynthia Fridsma
====================

In the New York Times, I read about the tragedy that took place in Newtown. On December 14, 2012, a maniac came shooting in the Sandy Hook Elementary School.

My thoughts are with the people in Newtown, Connecticut and I would like to offer my condolences on behalf of our website. I would also like to ask for a moment of silence for the 28 people who died because of a lunatic with a gun. Among the victims were 20 children. They had a whole life in front of them, and it ended brutally.

In my opinion it's way to easy for a lunatic to buy weapons, it's time to discuss gun control.

You can read the shocking news on the New York Times.

Webmaster tips and tricks

Perhaps sometimes you wonder where do the visitors come from and which webpages are of the most interest to your audience? I wrote a short article titled:

How to monitor your site performance?
===================
Written by Cynthia Fridsma
===================

Google Analytics is a great tool, but Google Analytics doesn't show you all the details you might need to keep your website interesting to your audience, and that's when you can use PHP to measure your site.

If you really want to know what's happening on your site, then you can use PHP and MySQL to track your site.

First, you need to create a MySQL database to store the referring URLs.

Go to the section "Creativity, Webdesign tips, PHP tips and tricks" to read the complete article.

Guest book

==================
written by Cynthia Frisma
==================

Due to spam, I decided to use Facebook as a "Guestbook" on our site. You cannot only comment on the many articles on our beloved website, but you can also use Facebook to tell us how you think about our site and add suggestions on how we can improve the Heather Nova Online Magazine and believe it or not, it really works!

Lots of spammers are abusing Google, Bing and Yahoo to find online guest books because they love to abuse a guest book with their spam.

However, since we decided to fight spam, we use Facebook as a "guest book" and I haven't seen spam on our site ever since we decided to change our policy.

Sure, spammers still know how to reach us by email, but no longer directly on our site.

It's also the reason why we no longer support a forum because you can use Facebook on our site to share your point of view. Still, if you need to "sign" our guest book, you can go to the section "Guestbook" and tell the world how you think about our site. It's not a problem for us to use Facebook, but for spammers it is because they will be exposed with their Facebook profile.

If you have a website and want to have a "guest book," book" then do the same thing as we do: use Facebook so that you know that you're dealing with real people.

Voyager 1 Reaches Final Boundary Before Interstellar Space

The Voyager 1, operated by the U.S. space agency NASA, has entered a newly discovered region at the edge of the solar system, and is close to crossing a final boundary into instellar space.

Scientists are calling this region between between the solar system and deep space the "magnetic highway."

Astronomers say Voyager is still under the influence of our Sun, but that it has reached an area in which highly charged energy particles from interstellar space are beginning to stream in.
Project scientist Edward Stone of the California Institute of Technology says astronomers did not previously know about this final boundary discovered by Voyager.

Heather Nova Live At John Lennon Tribute

Washington Post Headlines

Anthony Weiner announced late Tuesday that he would run for mayor of New York. He's received a lot of attention in his first few days back in politics. But much of it hasn't been the good kind.

Since kicking off his bid for political redemption, the former congressman, who resigned from the House after sending lewd photos to women online has quickly run into some speed bumps.

I am always buoyed when someone who is all too easy to dislike reveals a glimmer of unexpected grooviness or humanity. I'm happy to put myself down as a stereotyper — even a bigot — in return for being surprised that a person once thoroughly dismissed by narrow-minded me has affection-worthy dimensions.

Reading the commentary on the IRS hearings, it's clear that the overriding rule in Washington opinion circles is that the moment someone says they have done nothing wrong is when the presumption of guilt hardens into an incontrovertible fact of guilt, with only the punishment left to be decided.

Ask old-timers why Congress is so divisive these days, and many will say it’s because lawmakers of opposing parties rarely hang out and socialize together like they did in days of yore.

Harkening back to an earlier era, members of Congress are planning a bipartisan evening at Nationals Park, where on June 5, they’ll leave politics aside and take in a game between the New York Mets and the Nats.

Furloughs for the U.S. Park Police forced by the budget cuts known as sequestration will end June 1, the National Park Service will announce Friday, because the agency was able to find other savings to offset them.

Thompson, who was nominated Thursday, is president and CEO of the National Opinion Research Center (NORC), a private-sector research group. He also held various positions with the Census Bureau between 1987 and 2002, according to a biography provided by the White House.

Hillary Clinton's new memoir doesn't have a title yet, but it does have a scheduled release date: June 1, 2014.

That's according to the new Amazon.com entry for the book, which features a plain book jacket with the former secretary of state's name and photo, but no title.

Riding high as polls continue to show he is a strong favorite to win reelection and one of the country's most popular governors, Christie's campaign has taken an aggressive early stance against underdog opponent and Democratic state Sen. Barbara Buono.

President Obama on Friday used the issue of sexual assault in the military to illustrate to U.S. Naval Academy graduates the importance of trust and honor, at a time when the public has grown weary of missteps by public servants.

Scott Mulhauser, a veteran Senate staffer and former aide to Vice President Biden, is the new chief of staff at the Export-Import Bank.

Mulhauser was a senior advisor to the Presidential Inaugural Committee was worked for the presidential re-election campaign as Biden’s deputy chief of staff. Before that, he spent more than a decade on Capitol Hill, including a stint at the Senate Finance Committee.

The Massachusetts Senate race has gotten quite heated, with Republican Gabriel Gomez calling Democratic Rep. Ed Markey "pond scum" for a web video that invokes Osama bin Laden.

"You know I've got four young kids, and they've got to sit there and they've got to see an ad with their dad, who's a SEAL, who served honorably," he told a reporter after speaking at the Newton-Needham Chamber of Commerce. "And for him to be as dirty and low, pond scum, to put me up there next to bin Laden, he's just got to be called what he is."

MOORE, Okla. — The first thing Kevin Gibson did after returning to his house, torn apart by a powerful tornado Monday, was pull an American flag and a temporary flagpole from the corner of his partially standing garage.

When New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo appeared to condemn mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner he was only joking, his office says.

Cuomo told the Syracuse Post-Standard's editorial board on Thursday that it would be "shame on us" if New Yorkers elect Anthony Weiner as mayor. He was the first high-profile Democrat to come out strongly against Weiner's candidacy. But an administration official later told reporters that Cuomo's comment was "made in jest."

How did Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin, a well-known anti-war protester, get into President Obama's speech Thursday at the National Defense University?

By listing herself as press. In a statement, the university explained that Benjamin "was given access via the list of media attendees expected."

The chief of staff to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) will try to join his boss in the Senate, strategists familiar with his plans confirm. As first reported by the Iowa Republican Web site, David Young plans to quit his job in the Capitol and run for Senate in Iowa.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) feuded this week. Then they feuded some more. It wasn't the first time tensions between the longtime senator and the freshman tea party favorite flared up. And it's a pretty safe bet that it won't be the last.

The most interesting aspect of this week's House vote in favor of constructing the Keystone XL pipeline was not the fact that it passed—which was widely expected—but the fact that it got 20 fewer votes than a similar proposal received one year ago.

The government-wide spending cuts known as the sequester remain unpopular for most Americans, with little difference in opinion across party lines, according to a Washington Post-ABC poll released Friday.

“So now we find out these people are making decisions based on our politics and beliefs, and they’re going to be in charge of our health care. There’s a huge national database that’s being created right now. Your health care, my health care, all the Fox viewers health care, their personal, intimate, most close-to-the-vest secrets will be in that database, and the IRS is in charge of that database? So the IRS will have the ability potentially ...to deny health care, to deny access, to delay health care.”

As midnight approached on the eve of the Republican convention in Virginia, party loyalists were tipping beers and listening to country music at a rollicking fete hosted by Pete Snyder, a front-runner for the nomination for lieutenant governor.

It takes a special kind of person to really appreciate the Consumer Price Index.

The CPI measures inflation, and lots of folks pay attention to it when the number (a 0.4 percent decrease in April) is released each month.

President Obama has nominated Katherine Archuleta, a top official in his 2012 campaign, to head the Office of Personnel Management.

Archuleta, the second Hispanic nominee for a political appointment during Obama’s second term, served as national political director on his reelection team and helped organize the blockbuster Democratic National Convention in Denver during his 2008 run. Her work in the government includes roles as chief of staff to then-Labor Secretary Hilda L. Solis from 2009 to 2011, senior policy adviser for the city and county of Denver from 2005 and 2009, and chief of staff to then-Transportation Secretary Federico F. Peña during the latter years of the Clinton administration.

President Obama declared an end to a fearful chapter in American history on Thursday and demanded more from the country and himself as it enters the next.

Obama’s speech at the National Defense University reflected an unusual ambivalence from a commander in chief over the morality of his administration’s counterterrorism policies.
