I s pent most of my career using Unix for software development or being sys admin for a herdof Sun workstationx. Unix/Linux has many virtues.
A friend who is not technical has just switched from Windows 7 (don't laugh, he is moving his email from AOL after 36 years).. He wanted a regular backup of his files to a USB hard drive.
Okay, how hard can this be? Somewhere there is a program either GUI or shell-based that does this, right? Not that I could find. After a lot steps that brought back memories:
1. Set up mount of USB drive in /etc/mount. What? HNo atomount or autodiscovery? You run lsblk to see what devices are attached, determine which is the USB drive, copy its 8 hexadecimal digit UUID and several other close to magic fields. (I started to remember what UID and GID mean as I fiddled.)
You rediscover that mount is a very picky program. How many spaces between parameters, Running sudo mount -a may not identify errors, just silently fail. How would it be to make a mount editor that prompts you for the parameters ands adds them to /etc/mount?
3. The backup script using rsync was fairly straightforward.#!/bin/bash
# Mirror backup to USB drive (vfat friendly)
BACKUP_BASE="/mnt/usb-backup/Backups"
LOGFILE="$HOME/backup.log"
echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - Backup started" >> "$LOGFILE"
# Check if USB is mounted
if ! mount | grep -q " /mnt/usb-backup "; then
echo "$(date) - ERROR: USB not mounted at /mnt/usb-backup" >> "$LOGFILE"
echo "ERROR: Please run: sudo mount /mnt/usb-backup"
exit 1
fi
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_BASE"
# === Directories to mirror - Add more here if needed ===
declare -A DIRS=(
["/home/$(whoami)/Documents"]="$BACKUP_BASE/Documents"
["/home/$(whoami)/Pictures"]="$BACKUP_BASE/Pictures"
)
echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - Starting rsync mirror..." >> "$LOGFILE"
for src in "${!DIRS[@]}"; do
dest="${DIRS[$src]}"
if [ -d "$src" ]; then
echo "→ Mirroring $src" | tee -a "$LOGFILE"
mkdir -p "$dest"
rsync -aAX --delete --info=progress2,stats2 "$src/" "$dest/" >> "$LOGFILE" 2>&1
else
echo "Warning: $src not found" >> "$LOGFILE"
fi
done
echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - Backup completed successfully" >> "$LOGFILE"
echo "✅ Backup finished successfully!"
echo "Log saved to: $LOGFILE"

Tennessee Capitol
On March 16, 2026, the Tennessee Legislature transmitted Bill SB0350 to Governor Bill Lee. Governor Bill Lee is expected to sign the legislation. Governor Lee signed a Constitutional Carry Bill in 2021. Bill SB0350 guarantee's renters rights to keep and bear arms will not be subject to cancellation by rental contracts. The bill does not apply to state and federal government leases or rentals of property. The bill applies to both residential and commercial renters. While Governor Lee is expected to sign SB0350, if he does not veto the bill by the 28th of March, the bill will become law without his signature.
The Tennessee Senate passed the bill on February 27, 2026 on a 27 to 5 vote. The Tennessee House followed with a 72 - 22 vote on March 9, with an amendment. The Senate concurred with the amendment on March 12, 32 -0. Governor Lee is term limited in Tennessee. His term will expire when a new governor takes office in January of 2027. From the bill:
SECTION 1. Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 66, Chapter 7, is amended by adding the following as a new section:
66-7-113.
(a) On and after July 1, 2025, a landlord shall not prohibit a tenant or a tenant's guest from lawfully possessing, carrying, transporting, or storing a firearm, any part of a firearm, or firearm ammunition in the tenant's home, apartment, or business; in a vehicle located in a parking area provided for tenants or tenants' guests by the landlord of the leased premises; or in other locations controlled by the landlord as necessary to enter or exit the tenant's home, apartment, or business, to enter or exit the leased premises, or to enter or exit a vehicle located on the leased premises or in a parking area provided by the landlord for tenants or tenants' guests.
The bill provides for remedies if the landlord insists on prohibiting firearms, Renter who have been damaged may file a civil lawsuit against a landlord for "actual damages, punitive damages, and recovery of attorney fees". New leases may be placed into effect by July 1, 2026 as long as existing lease provisions against firearms are not enforced.
Analysis: The major effect of such bills are to remove from landlords any liability for damages which could be claimed in the event of use of firearms on the landlord's property, even when rented to another person. Because those who wish the population disarmed have failed to do so legislatively and judicially, the mechanism of civil suits has been employed to create bans which would otherwise be considered ridiculous. Through zoning and the threat of lawsuit, landlords have been required to provide all sorts of services which they might otherwise not be required to do. This is part of the reason for increasing housing costs. Bills such as SB0350 do not require action on the part of landlords; they require inaction. An armed public is considered to be in the interest of the Republic. Actions making it difficult to maintain an armed public are thus against the interests of governments in the United States.
In reality, such bans are extremely difficult to enforce. They are primarily used to allow landlords to remove unwanted tenants. Failure to pay rent or damage to property should remain the primary reason to remove unwanted tenants.

Arizona Senate Bill 1424 has passed the Senate 17 -2, and has passed in the House Education Committee and the House Rules Committee. The bill creates a requirement for school districts and charter schools to provide age-appropriate firearm safety awareness training in all grades kindergarten - 12 grade.
The instruction is to be objective, and not promote firearms ownership or any political position. The instruction is to be limited to accident prevention and personal safety awareness. It is to include guidance on safe firearms storage in homes and vehicles. The instruction is to give guidance on what to do if a firearm is encountered, to include not touching the firearm and to notify an adult. Inside the bill there is a long list of restrictions about six things which may not be included in the instruction:
3. NOT INCLUDE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:
(a) A LIVE FIREARM.
(b) AMMUNITION OR SIMULATED AMMUNITION.
(c) A DEMONSTRATION THAT INVOLVES HANDLING, OPERATING, LOADING, UNLOADING OR FIRING A FIREARM.
(d) INSTRUCTION THAT IS INTENDED TO TRAIN STUDENTS IN THE USE OF FIREARMS.
(e) A MORAL JUDGMENT REGARDING LAWFUL FIREARM POSSESSION.
(f) AN INQUIRY, SURVEY OR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ABOUT WHETHER A STUDENT, STUDENT'S PARENT OR MEMBER OF THE STUDENT'S HOUSEHOLD OWNS, POSSESSES OR MAY POSSESS A FIREARM OR ABOUT THE FIREARMS STORAGE PRACTICES OF A STUDENT, STUDENT'S PARENT OR MEMBER OF THE STUDENT'S HOUSEHOLD.
The Arizona Citizens Defense League (AZCDL) (this correspondent is a member), supports the legislation. This correspondent did not find a formal statement of opposition against the bill. An advocate for gun storage legislation made the argument the legislature should pass a bill requiring safe storage of guns instead. The bill is considered a partisan bill, supported mostly by Republicans, according to Legiscan. Fatal firearms accidents have declined by over 94% since 1933. The number of firearms per person has increased about 3X during that period. On average, about 61 children die each year in firearms accidents. About 168 children die each year in accidents involving glass tabletops. About as many children die from accidents involving 5 gallon buckets as die in fatal firearms accidents. More children are killed in accidents involving bicycles than are killed in accidents involving firearms. Firearms are one of many hazards children encounter while they grow up.
Analysis: The bill is likely to pass the Arizona legislature, which is narrowly controlled by Republicans. Republicans have a 17 to 13 advantage in the Senate and a 31 to 29 advantage in the House. SB 1424 might avoid Governor Hobbs (D) veto, but it seems unlikely. Governor Katie Hobbs has earned a reputation for the number of vetoes she has given. Governor Hobbs is facing serious re-election challenges. She might sign SB 1424 to claim she is not against rights protected by the Second Amendment.
SB 1424 severely restricts what may be taught to students. This may be necessary to obtain passage in a legislature with a very small majority of Republicans.
The bill is a step toward more comprehensive knowledge about firearms safety. It makes students more aware of firearms. It has the advantage of not being overtly against the ownership or use of firearms. As "age appropriate" instruction about firearms safety, later grade levels might be able to include information about the legal status of firearms in Arizona. It is difficult for people to obey the law if they do not know what the law is. Firearms are one of many potentially hazardous items children encounter while they grow up.
It is far better to gun proof the child than to attempt to create a gun free environment.

According to the criminal complaint, the victim was sleeping in her bed when she woke up to someone beating on her door and ringing the doorbell. This happened on 18th Street in Brownsville.
The criminal complaint said Rosiek broke a window with a brick and came in through the front door.
Police say he went to the victim's bedroom and started yelling at her.
They say he blocked her doorway, and that's when the victim fired several shots, hitting him in the leg and side of the head.
The complaint says he chased her — and they started fighting — until she was able to run outside to police.

If you wander through YouTube, you will videos offering many explanations for why Americans are obese today, when they were not in the 1950s. Certainly, my recollection is that in my elementary school classes (1963-1968) it was usually one kid in each class who was fat. (By junior high, that was me.) Pictures of 1950s and 1960s American seem healthily skinny. But did fat people not get photographed?
