I’ve been having trouble waking up early as of late, so I’m attempting to solve the problem by making this my alarm song — “The Ballad of Davy Crockett” I know its not the most politically correct song in the world, with lines like the following.
He give his word and he give his hand
That his Injun friends could keep their land
And the rest of his life he took the stand
That justice was due every redskin band.
Davy, Davy Crockett, Holdin’ his promise dear!
From the full version
But there is nothing more motivating than waking up to the story of a man who “killed him a ‘bar’ when he was only 3”. What have I been doing with myself this whole time? I have to get it together and get out of bed!
The hompage of the recently published Grabar Cheatsheet
Say hello to the The Grabar Cheatsheet, a Classical Armenian study tool. Its a basically a reference tool which sums up commonly used grammatical forms in Grabar (the transliterated Armenian word for Classical Armenian), and should be useful for students, scholars, or clergy who study or use Classical Armenian.
I have tons of passwords for tons of websites. So do most of my friends. For that reason my friend Arsen Ovanessoff had the idea to create a great tool to help people manage their passwords in a really productive and secure way. After a coupe years of collaboration, along with our head geek, Ted Schundler, we launched the Mitto Password Manager. We’re proud of our website. Its a solid tool that accomplishes exactly what we intended it to. Everyday we, and our many users, use Mitto to help us log into our many web services with super-strong passwords.
If you’re not a Mitto user, here are a few reasons why you should join and vote for us.
It’s totally free!
You can add as many passwords for as many things as you want (besides passwords for websites you can add passwords for things like WiFi routers and even bike locks!).
Its as secure as any website can be, and even adds other methods of authentication, like receiving a special code via SMS.
Using “one click logins” and the Mitto Bookmarklet, logging into most websites is as easy clicking a button.
You can securely share passwords with other Mitto users. Hasn’t anyone told you that emailing passwords to people is a bad idea?
Its been growing steadily since being launched, and we’ve been actively adding new features and improving the service. (pssst, we’ve got some great new features and UI upgrades in the works as we speak.)
I helped make it.

We remain hopeful that common efforts to overcome the present challenges and the securing of a peaceful and creative life in the Caucasus region will be crowned with the desired success, and the harmonious life and experience of cooperation between the Armenian and Azerbaijani peoples will once again sprout with seedlings of peace. […] Let us remain faithful to the commandment of Christ’s apostle, which is also a call directed to all humanity: Live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you. II Corinthians 13:11.
— HH Karekin II, addressing the World Summit of Religious Leaders in Baku, Azerbaijan
