Thanks for getting Rantburg back up and running! You guys rock. I'll be hitting the tip jar as soon as I'm able.
Hope you're able to get out and watch some fun fireworks.

From his position in the US SENATE, Jesse Helms stood fast against America's enemies guarding Her from Her enemies foreign and domestic.
Jesse Helms was like another great American who stood *foursquare athwart the leftest drive to destroy America from within and forced them out into the open until reinforcements came up to help.
He was out of fashion according to the Eastern elites they constantly harped on the fact that he was a product of a different time, but Jesse really changed through the years while the Leftists dandies and demoCrap fops never did and they continue to sabatauge America from within till this day.
RIP Jesse
/'foursquare athwart'
I'va always wanted to use these two woids together.

After having two children of their own, Helms and his wife adopted a 9 year old boy named Charles who had cerebral palsy. It is said they adopted him after reading in a newspaper that he wanted a mother and father for Christmas.
While we've had our troubles at the Burg with servers, the good news is that the RAB has swept the streets of another upazila. Let's follow their 12-step program for public safety as taught to us by Green Steve ...
notorious dacoit was killed in a shootout between his cohorts and RAB members in Moddhya Madhupur area of the town early on Friday.
A genuine 'crossfire' since he was indeed hauled into RAB headquarters for spirited 'interrogation' prior to his untimely demise ...
The dead was identified as Nizamuddin alias Nizam Dacoit, 38, hailed from Chhagalniya upazila of the district. RAB sources said he was wanted in twelve systems 23 cases including of four murders.
Step 1: So his mother didn't love him ...
RAB members arrested Nizam from a house in Halisahar area of Chittagong on Wednesday.
Step 2: "Come along, Nizam, we want to have a chat with youse"
According to Nizam's confessional statement ...
Step 3: "Ooch! Ouch! I'll talk! Put those down!"
... the elite force went to Moddhya Madhupur area for recovering hidden arms at about 3:30am.
Step 4: RAB heads off to the secret lair ...
"As soon as the elite force reached the spot ...
Step 5: Which spot? The spot where Nizam, having had a bullet put behind each ear, is about to 'walk into a crossfire' ...
... Nizam's accomplices opened fire on them, ...
Step 6: Accomplices open random, aimless fire ...
... forcing the law-enforcers to fire back," says a RAB account of the encounter.
Step 7: RAB of course has to shoot back, even if it's into the thin night air.
At one stage while trying to flee ...
Step 8: feets are about to fail him ...
... Nizam was caught in the line of fire ...
Step 9: [BANG] "Urp!" [thwack] "rosebud" [rattle]
... and died instantly.
Step 10: "He's dead, Jim"
His accomplices, however, managed to flee the scene, sources said.
Step 11: as if they were never there in the first place.
The elite force recovered three LGs, one gun and six rounds of cartridge from the spot.
Step 12: everything except a shutter gun.

An offshore platform being built at the Aker Stord yard in western Norway was evacuated Thursday afternoon, after a written bomb threat was found on it.
As many as 1,000 workers were evacuated and brought to safety after a note was found on the platform reading (in English): "There is a bomb down here." The note was signed "Osama" and dated "9/11."
Police immediately sent for a group of bomb experts from Oslo to investigate the threat.
Anne Oliversen of the Haugaland / Sunnhordaland Police District said the police had no choice but to take the threat seriously, "but we hope of course that this is a bad joke."
Jan Lindbæk, communications chief for Aker Solutions, which owns the yard, said he had few details about the action in western Norway but could confirm that all workers were evacuated.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
