ALBERT C. BLOCK Ph.D.
BLOCK, PhD, ALBERT C., 88
Gainesville - Albert (Al) Block, PhD, 88, passed away peacefully on January 4, 2013 at his home in Gainesville, Florida. He was born on September 28, 1924 in Brooklyn, New York to Maurice and Jean Block.
Al graduated from Brooklyn's Samuel J. Tilden High School in 1941 and immediately left his childhood home to join the US Army's 14th Armored Division. He served on the front lines in Europe until the end of
and helped to liberate several prisoner of war camps. He remained in the US
Reserve and was recalled to serve during the
Korean war
. He retired with the rank of Major after 25 years.
A naturally gifted musician, Al used the GI Bill to pursue his passion after the war. He received his BA and MA in Music from NYU while minoring in education. A teacher encouraged him to apply to the prestigious Juilliard School. Al reconsidered, though, choosing to leave his New York City home once again. He made his way to Miami where he began teaching elementary school, working as a reading specialist in the Dade County school system, and playing piano in several popular local venues.
Al was as passionate about learning and education as he was for music. He quickly found additional work teaching English to immigrants at Miami Dade Community College at night. It was there that Al met the love of his life, another young instructor named Judy. Al and Judy Block were married in 1964.
Al soon began work on his PhD in Education at the University of Miami where he helped launch the first Head Start program. He became the director of the JFK Early Childhood Program, a cooperative effort between the Dade county school system and Miami Dade CC. He was hired as a Professor of Education at the
University of Florida
, and he and Judy moved to Gainesville in 1966. In 1968, Al became Chairman of Early Childhood Education at UF.
In 1971, Al and Judy founded Brentwood School in Gainesville, which is still thriving today. Brentwood remains an integral part of his legacy. Two of his sons Ken and Jeffrey, graduated from Brentwood School in the late 1970's, while his grandson Chance graduated just last year. His granddaughters Marley and Alaina currently attend Brentwood as well. Al served as Director of the school for over a decade before accepting a position as Director of Student Support Services at Santa Fe College in Gainesville, where he served for 15 years before retiring. Throughout those 15 years he also taught Early Childhood Education classes for the Nova University graduate program.
The center of his universe was without question his family. His deep love for his wife Judy was apparent to everyone who knew him and he loved her endlessly. Words are inadequate. The love, loyalty, unconditional support, and pride that he displayed for his 3 sons Mark, Ken, and the late Jeffrey Block was a shining example to the world of what fatherhood should truly be. His face would light up with joy at the mere mention of his grandchildren. The simple sound of their voices and easy laughter brought him so much happiness. He deeply cherished their endless hugs.
His hearing was damaged by rapid rifle fire in WWII, but Al's ear for music and love of words never left him. In 2000 he co-wrote the song "Out There" with his son, Ken, that appeared on the Sister Hazel gold record, Fortress. Throughout his life he played piano whenever he could.
Al possessed a quick wit and a subtle and clever sense of humor. One of his favorite house rules was that "a bad joke is better than no joke at all". And he whispered bad puns to the end, with a knowing smile you'd almost miss, if you didn't know better.
Al is survived by his wife Judy of Gainesville, Florida; his son Mark (Debbie) of Fort Lauderdale, Florida; his son Ken (Tracy) of Gainesville, Florida; his grandchildren Chanson, Marley and Alaina; his sister Toby Larsson of Thompson Falls, Montana; and his nieces and nephews and other relatives.
Al was preceded in death by his parents Maurice and Jean; his brother Lee; and his dearly loved son Jeffrey.
A celebration of life service will be held at 7PM Monday evening January 6th at the Santa Fe College Fine Arts Center, 3000 N.W. 83rd Street, Gainesville, Florida.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that contributions be made to the "Jeff Block Memorial Scholarship" fund at the above address, Santa Fe College.

Krasner Appointed Director of Policy Planning for the State Department
Krasner is not associated with any particular ideological group. He is certainly not, in any sense, a card-carrying neocon (whatever that might mean). His primary qualification for the job, in addition to his obvious and impeccable academic ones, appears to be that he is a former colleague and friend of Secretary of State Rice. Within the world of IR, he is best classified as a "realist" but one who has engaged the other IR schools in a way that has earned their respect. What might a realist perspective say about international institutions and international law? In an interview, Krasner reveals his thoughts about the ICC and international justice (emphasis added):
One problem with the ICC is that you have no democratic accountability. But the deepest problem with the ICC and with other efforts, like universal jurisdiction, is that international politics is not something that you can deal with adequately using judicial reasoning. Judicial reasoning has to be based essentially on absolute rules, or at least more or less on absolute rules. It has to be deontological or Kantian. You have to have a set of rules and you have to honor the rules. You don't want the judge or a jury saying, "If I convict this guy, his family members or his gang members are going to be mad, so they're going to go out and shoot ten other people." No system of justice domestically that works well can work in that way. But in the international level, that kind of thinking is utterly irresponsible, because the critical issue at the international level is how you can maintain order, ideally have justice, and save lives. That requires utilitarian thinking. It requires thinking about the greatest good for the greatest number. I do not think there is any escape from this.

OMG--we're taking God's name in vain.
Of all the commandments that were
written in stone, "Thou shall not take
the name of the Lord your God in vain,"
made number three of the top ten.
It's everywhere on social media, text
messages…it's even finds its way in
church. But, just because it's common,
does that make it harmless?
God's name preceded by an "Oh my"
or initials which mean that, still violate
the commandment written in stone by
the finger of God.
Think you can do that without guilt?
Listen to what else is said in Exodus
20:7: "You shall not take the name of
the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord
will not hold him guiltless who takes
His name in vain."
A stark warning about a common
practice we should note.
"What Does the Bible Say about OMG?"

Store clerk shot; Greenville County police dog killed
Published: Monday, June 23, 2008 at 11:07 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 23, 2008 at 11:08 a.m.
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) -- Authorities say a Greenville County police dog was killed while pursuing a man suspected of shooting a store clerk.
The Greenville News reports the dog was shot Monday during a struggle with the man. It's unclear whether the suspect fired the fatal shot.
Sheriff's spokesman Lt. Shea Smith said the shooting began with an argument between the suspect and a woman outside a Greenville convenience store early Monday morning.
Smith said the woman ran into the store and the man followed, trying to drag the woman out. Authorities said he returned to the car, got a handgun and went back into the store, firing several shots.
The store clerk was shot at least once. She was taken to Greenville Memorial Hospital. A hospital spokeswoman would not release the woman's condition.

I spend hours searching and trying plugins, but without findig what I'm looking for. Hope someone is able to point me to a plugin that does the following. I would be very grateful.
I like to use a spreadsheet (excel, CSV) as basic source for a website. It should be possible to pull fields (and possibly also columns and rows) from a spreadsheet by using a menu on the site.
Please let me give a simple example of what I'm aiming for.
You choose a city from a menu. On the city page you'll find tourist information. I would like that tourist information to be stored in a spreadsheet because it changes on a regular base.
Of course I could open each and every page and edit the info when needed, but it is much faster to have all info nicely stored in a spreadsheet and pull it from there.
Thanks for all hints in the right direction.

Welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your time here and learn a lot.
This is a discussion on A writer researching for his next book. within the New Members Introduce Yourself forums, part of the Welcome To DefensiveCarry.com category; I'm brand new here. In fact, I haven't even lurked here which means I'm still navigating my way around in the early wee hours this ...
I'm brand new here. In fact, I haven't even lurked here which means I'm still navigating my way around in the early wee hours this morning.
My background is pretty simple--I served in the U.S. Air Force, then in federal law enforcement, then after graduate school, went into the advertising and marketing world as a copywriter. First job landed me at Ackerman McQueen in Texas, where I'm from and presently living. Ackerman McQueen was the National Rifle Association's powerhouse ad and pr agency of the mid-80's, 90's and early 00's.
While there, I was blessed to work on landmark campaigns such as "I'm the NRA" in which we did photoshoots and interviews with various celebrity members like Tom Selleck and Charlton Heston, Gerald McRaney and Susan Howard. I was on the ground-floor launch of "I Refuse To Be A Victim" and wrote the radio and television commercials that featured Ms. Howard (of Dallas fame). During my tenure at Ackerman, I wrote piles of speeches for Wayne LaPierre, James Jay Baker and my personal favorite, Mr. Charlton Heston.
I'm a staunch supporter and defender of the Second Amendment, the NRA and most all pro-gun groups and associations--and I'm a huge, huge supporter of carry laws, be they concealed or open.
A little less than three weeks ago, my first novel, Above Reproach, was published. I've written non-fiction before as well as newspaper columns, magazine articles, etc having to do with advertising and marketing, but this was my first foray into the world of fiction and thrillers. Essentially the storyline displays and positions the Second Amendment as the unparalleled and most effective "department of homeland security" we have or need in the U.S.
There are several important instances in the book where CHL holders have little choice but to defend themselves and others because of the situation they find themselves in--and the police are not only nowhere to be seen, but as so often happens in real life, have not even been contacted.
I'm here researching, reading, learning, acquiring ideas, etc for the third book that will be coming out next spring entitled Blue Cities, Red Streets, which is a thriller that deals with domestic crime and the predators that successfully prey on the unprepared (aka: unarmed) versus the armed citizens who refuse to be victimized by the criminals. (The title is a play on the blue/red political map where the liberal cities/areas are denoted as "blue" regions, but the uncontained crime causes their streets to literally run red with the blood of victims.)
That's about it for my dull existence these days, so I reckon I'll be doing a lot more looking around and learning here than posting--at least initially.
When I'm not writing, I enjoy reloading and casting my own bullets as well as flying and boating.
Author of Above Reproach, the new thriller that unequivocally positions the Second Amendment and concealed carry as our nation's most effective system of homeland and personal security.
Welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your time here and learn a lot.

Hi ladies.
Today is my 7 or 8 dpo and I had mild cramps entire past week but today it's a little bit worse..
I just went to the bathroom and saw 2-2 drops of clear blood dropped
with my urine. I usually get back pain right before AF and no spotting,
so.. I don't know what is this for.
I thought "spotting" is like.. brown-ish discharge thing. Not a clear blood. I'm scared! :(

The Legend of SurabayaSummarized by Mr. Fullerton
|In East Java lived Sura, the strong shark, and Baya, the crafty crocodile, whom continuously fought about sharing food with one another, until one day they decided to stop bickering and share their territories by agreeing to stay in their own areas to hunt--the sea for Sura, and the land and river for Baya. Unfortunately one day, Sura the shark flopped onto the land in search for more food in the river, which enraged Baya so much that they fought a brutal brawl that made a bloody mess of the island. The people talked about the battle between Sura and Baya and named the place where they viciously fought, Surabaya.

I'm seriously confused. I'm trying to make a theme and have something that looks OK on my test server but when I move the theme to my real server something strange happens. The font size decreases ... but only for the sidebar.
I've tried in Firefox and Safari but the same thing happens in both. I've run out of ideas why this happens and would appreciate suggestions for what to look for.
I'm using percentage when defining the font-size and have set the font size for the sidebar to 80%. When I check the font size difference for the sidebar on the test site and the real site it's 80% so I assume that this has something to do with it ... but I don't understand how one site can affect the other.
Any ideas?

I've had the hardest learning curve with Samara, one I have yet to get over. I think, I really need to start taking the time because everytime I start having my doubts again, her face pulls me right back in.
I do love her, even if I am slack in showing it at times D:
Samara is a Musedoll Ciel.
Clothing and whatnot, done by me.

MIAMI (AP) - Cornerback Brent Grimes, who missed almost all of last season with an Achilles tendon injury, signed a one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins on Saturday.
``I don't have any restrictions right now,'' he said. ``I am running and everything. It's just building up your strength and everything. That's part of the process, but I have plenty of time. With the offseason workouts and getting everything in shape, I will be great.''
Grimes is expected to start for the Dolphins, who lost Sean Smith via free agency to the Kansas City Chiefs.
``I picked Miami because I think they are building something great here, and I would love to be a part of it,'' Grimes said.
He was undrafted and broke into the NFL with the Falcons in 2007. He has 13 career interceptions, while Smith has five in four seasons.
``We are very excited that we were able to reach an agreement with Brent,'' Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland said. ``His experience and history of play making production will add a great deal to our secondary.''

Pope Cancels Bonuses for Vatican Officials; Makes Charitable Donation
Newly elected Pope Francis, who has become known for his emphasis on financial humility, has now canceled bonuses for Vatican officials. Traditionally, select members of Vatican leadership receive bonus checks when a new Pope is elected—this year, they were due to get about $2,000 apiece. Instead of the bonuses, the Pope has told officials to draw funds from his personal charity budget, and make a donation to several charitable organizations. According to a Vatican spokesperson, the move is "a sign of the church's attention for the many people who are suffering" …

I mentioned this guy in my message yesterday because of all the awesome things he's doing and then woke up to see yet another story about him on Relevant! So awesome. This guy breathes Jesus.
I still think it was a huge publicity stunt to make people forget about the child sexual abuse issue they have.

More Americans have signed up for insurance on Healthcare.gov, but the total is still well below the Obama administration's original expectations.
Today, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is testifying before Congress.
Her department says about 260,000 Americans signed up for insurance last month.
That's more than double the amount in October.
It brings the 2-month total to nearly 365,000.
The original goal was 1.2 million.
Although more people are signing up on healthcare.gov, a new CBS News New York Times poll shows the law is still unpopular.
"Millions of Americans are being harmed by this law. My constituents do not trust the administration when it comes to the affordable healthcare act," said Rep. Joe Pitts.
Sebelius says the website is also functioning better than when it launched.
She's also calling for an investigation into what went wrong.

Are You a Risky Drinker?
What Is Risky Drinking? continued...
For men this means more than 14 drinks per week, or more than four drinks on any occasion. For women this means more than seven drinks per week or more than three drinks on any occasion.
What is a "drink?" It is one 12-ounce beer, or one 5-ounce glass of wine, or 1-1/2 ounces of 80-proof spirits.
Who's counting? Everyone who drinks should, says panelist Marc Schuckit, MD, professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, and director of the alcohol and drug treatment program and the alcohol research center at the Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System.
Safe drinking means not exceeding the recommended number of drinks. It isn't safe drinking if you drink to reach a certain effect, Schuckit says.
"A variety of things contribute to risky drinking," he notes. "One is the hollow leg -- the relative resistance to alcohol. People who are resistant to the effects of alcohol will drink more and hang out with people who drink more. So setting limits would control alcoholism."
At first, drinking makes a person feel good. After too much risky drinking, a person doesn't feel good until he or she has a drink.
"People say it doesn't feel good anymore, but I can't stop," Willenbring says. "At this point, people are not drinking to get high anymore. They are drinking to reduce stress. Once these changes occur, they may be permanent."
Current Treatment Inadequate
The health care system is failing people with drinking problems, Willenbring says.
"Only 24% of those who have ever had alcohol dependency seek treatment," he notes. "Only 12% of those who seek it ever receive any form of treatment. It is disconnected from mainstream health care. And reimbursement is almost impossible to obtain."
Even when people get treatment -- and can pay for it -- it's usually not good enough.
"Minimum standards for treatment of alcohol disorders are met only 11% of the time," he says. "That's the worst of all major causes of death in the U.S."
In fact, it's the worst treated of all major medical conditions, reports panelist Eric Goplerud, PhD, professor of health policy at George Washington University School of Public Health in Washington, D.C.

Ultrasound is a scanning technique used to image the growing fetus. The transducer portion emits inaudible sound waves, which fan out as they travel through your abdomen. When they hit dense structures like the fetus and the wall of your uterus, the sound waves bounce back to the transducer and are translated into a visual image by the computer.

Is it ok to take food into Portugal. Will be self catering for a week on the Algarve. Many thanks Denise
My wife and I who are in our 50s will be visiting Lisbon in August for 5 days. We have booked a place which is about 4 minutes walk from Martim Moniz. The place is located between the neighborhood Baixa and Mouraria. We would like to know if this area is safe to walk at night? Also any security tips to make our stay nice will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi, visiting in a couple of weeks and arriving Saturday evening. What time do the supermarkets close and are they opening Sunday?
Many thanks
I am organising a holiday in a villa for around 12 adults of retirement age but who are all very active. I do not know Portugal at all, so advice on which would be the best locations for our group would be much appreciated. One of the group would like to be in reach of Lisbon, the rest of us would like a semi rural location with walks, a nearby village, and scenery the artists amongst us can paint. Sea views, historic sights, places to cycle and nearby restaurants are on the list of attractions we are looking for.
Many thanks
In view of the stories about the taxi drivers, I considered renting a car for a week
1 Is it worth it just for our comfort, we 4 people
2 This will save us heartache
3 can travel out of town and will not be dependent on
4 easy to get along driving in the city
i will Happy to receive tips from your experience
Hi, I know that there is a rechargeable public transportation card sold at the metro stations in Lisbon, that can be filled up with day-passes for 6 euros. Do those day passes work when travelling to Algés too?
Also, are there good places for vegan food in Lisbon? I'd love some recommendations
We've all heard of London's oystercard or Hong Kongs octopuscard?
But is it really necessary for lisbon?
Its says in Timeout that if you want to use the METRO then you must use a lisboncard. It says when you travel in from the airport you must use a lisboncard.
Or can you just bu tickets? There is a touristcard? Is this easier? How much is it and can I procure it in the UK before I leave? Does anyone have any webaddresses for the lisboncard?
I'm travelling to the Algarve for the first time, with young children. Can someone tell me whether the tap water is safe to drink please?
I will be spending 4 and a half days in Lisbon in September. With limited time would you suggest a day trip to Evora, Obidos, Albaca/Batalha or Tomar? I will be traveling by train or bus.
Does anyone know what is the address of a public elevator, Or escalator that was planned at the beginning of the 20th century by a disciple of Gustave Eiffel between downtown district (Chiado) and Upper Quarter (Barrio Alto)
not the Santa Justa Lift !
hi there, I am from Australia and in September 2016 I will have 12 days holiday in Portugal. I will be arriving in and departing from Lisbon airport. Can anyone please give me advice about where to go and what to do? I would like to go to Porto and then spend some time in smaller towns inland. I like history and culture and food. I am not really interested in beaches and nightlife. For this trip I would probably prefer not to spend my time in museums (that's for another trip) and I like to explore towns on foot. I prefer not to move hotels every day but have a minimum of 2 nights in each place. I will be traveling by train and any other public transport.
Any advice greatly appreciated. I know this is not a long trip but I think with some planning and forethought I can have a wonderful time there. Many thanks

Re: Our Forums' FICO High Achievers: Who has at least one FICO Score of 760 or above?[ Edited ]

I'm not a FICO pro, but my understanding is the same as yours. Assuming the total of your reported credit limits is at least $500, your overall util is 1%. If $5000, the 0.1% is rounded up to 1%.
That brings up the often mentioned advice of keeping your util between 1% and 9%, both included. There are variations of this, such as >0 and <9. I consider that advice to be slightly incorrect. 9.1 rounded up to 10 fits in that range too. Even a straight 10 belongs there.

I hope the Utes can put together a complete game. I think Wilson has improved
but he will have to play his best game to get a win. Of course they will need
others to step up and make plays on both sides of the ball.
The Utes will also need to win the turnover battle if they are going to have a chance in this game. I think it will benefit the Utes to have the cold weather - hopefully that will cause some dropped balls by the Bears.
Go Utes!

"...going back to old adage 'one game at a time;' next up,
Is this saying that before this week the Utes weren't taking it one game at a time, perhaps they are going to stop looking ahead? If they are only now starting to "going back to old adage 'one game at a time'" then it is no wonder why they have lost 5 times this year.

Ah, sportsfanforlife, I see you apparently relish being a fan of a cellar dweller. Could that also be called cellardwellerforlife at least as long as we are in the PAC?

James Franco Gets His Pick of Columbia Freshmen
A bunch of girls screamed with lust for James Franco at Columbia, and we don't blame them. Also, Alec Baldwin screamed at a limo driver while leaving the U.S. Open, in today's gossip roundup.
Alec Baldwin screamed at a limo driver after a near-collision leaving the U.S. Open. James Franco, who's doing Columbia's master's writing program, was mobbed on campus by squealing undergrad girls. (And honey, we'd have been leading the pack.) Star Jones reached a last-minute divorce settlement with ex-hub Al Reynolds in which he gets "basically nothing." Jeremy Piven wants to move into the West 19th Street pad being evacuated by hockey star Sean Avery, whose Vogue internship is inspiring a romantic comedy. Kathleen Turner ate a hot dog and read a script on Pier 1 at 70th and Riverside.
The Catholic Church is angry at a new book that tells couples to have sex in confessional booths. Google mogul Sergey Brin didn't get Nina Garcia's memo that grown-ups should never wear Crocs, because he wore them at the U.S. Open. Kelly Osbourne finally seems to have a boyfriend and is making out with him everywhere. Red Hot Chili Pepper Anthony Kiedis made out all night with his new girlfriend even though his old one, model Heather Christie, just birthed his son. Sean Hannity wants to stay out of "Page Six," but he didn't today.
Obama told George Stephanopoulos on TV that he had to sign up for Selective Service when he graduated high school in 1979, but you actually didn't have to sign up at that time, so was he lying or just having a brain fudge? A new political group called WomenCount will defend Sarah Palin against smears because she's a woman, not because they like her. J. Lo may be the celeb judge on the Project Runway finale. Victoria Beckham has a 1967 Mia Farrow–type hairdo. Jessica Alba and Cash Warren competed with Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy to be the cutest couple at the Prada party.
Oprah Winfrey's mom (who gave her up), Vernita Lee, is being sued by a Wisconsin boutique for $156,000 it says she owes. Mary-Kate Olsen demanded to sit between Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford and Jessica Szohr at the Rock & Republic fashion show. Minnie Driver had a nine-pound, twelve-ounce baby boy.

Whether prepping your Corvette to roll across the auction block or display at a show, cleaning the engine adds value. A spotless engine shows just how important and well maintained is your Corvette. Filthy engines are more apt to retain heat and make it difficult to detect small leaks. Dirt and dust cause pulleys and belts to squeak from undue wear. Worst of all, it just looks bad. (more…)
Corvette Evolution: From Status Icon to Competent Cruiser
Society often pokes fun at aging, but there are many positives to growing older that are often glossed over. Many types of wines and cheeses are encouraged to age. As a person grows older, they typically do so with increased wisdom and a better understanding of what is important in life. Fine art that was severely undervalued years ago during the artist's life can be priceless today. We just celebrated the anniversary and amazing transformation of the Corvette over the past 60 years, a sports car that has certainly aged gracefully. (more…)
C4, C5, and C6 Interior Squeaks
While plastic certainly has its merits in our modern society, it can be problematic when it is used extensively in automotive interiors. Temperature extremes, excessively bumpy roads, and improper removal/reinstallation are the biggest factors that can cause annoying interior component squeaks. 1984-1989 Corvettes are arguably the worst affected, with later C4s, C5s, and C6s being less susceptible to squeaks and rattles barring improper removal and/or reinstallation techniques. (more…)
C6 Production Numbers
As of this edit, the last of the C6 Corvettes have been produced in Bowling Green, KY. The C6 was introduced in 2005, and was another all-new design, just like the preceding C5 was all-new compared to the C4. The C6 continues the Corvette Team's mission to improve on the previous generation in every category. The resulting base model Corvette for 2005 boasted numbers like a 4.3 second sprint to 60 miles per hour, a 186 MPH top speed, and fuel economy ratings of 18 city/28 highway for manual equipped versions (15/25 with the 4L65-E Hydra Matic automatic). Somehow, the team managed to undercut the cost of the base 2004 Corvette by $300. Pretty impressive! (more…)
C4-C6 Corvette Control Arm Urethane Bushing Installation Overview
Over time, the original rubber control arm bushings on C4-C6 Corvettes will wear out and fail. While some owners will want to stick with new rubber bushings as a replacement option, there is another option that has become almost second nature in recent years: urethane bushings. These bushings offer two primary benefits: longer life and a firmer, more responsive feel behind the wheel. While this is a task best suited for those with experience and access to a hydraulic press, it can be accomplished with a conventional vise. Follow along as we remove the OEM bushings on a Corvette and replace them with urethane versions. (more…)

Ten people remain in the hospital Wednesday night, injured in the massive theater shooting in Aurora. Now local teens have created a project to raise money for the victims and their families.
While most teenagers spend their summer vacation relaxing, three Pueblo teens are using the summer to make a difference. After hearing news of the Aurora Theater shooting they felt compelled to help.
"It's amazing to me how someone can go in and take so many different peoples lives and not know what it's going to do for the families and not care," Devin Deherrera said.
Deherrera and her friends created t-shirts to honor the victims and incorporate the Batman Dark Night theme.
"We tried to go for the ribbons, like the breast cancer ribbons and then Batman's colors are black and yellow," Deherrera explained.
Deherrera says within a few days of selling the shirts around town and on-line, they've managed to reach people even across the country.
"We've got a lady in California who wants to buy one of our shirts," Deherrera said.
On the back of the shirt is a poem written by fellow creator, Erin Medina.
"Families struggling every day, loved ones hurt and taken away, though we all wanted you to stay, we'll never forget those taken that day."
The money raised in the t-shirt sale will go towards building a memorial plaque for the victims. The teens say they'll give the remaining proceeds to the victims' families. T-shirts are $15 dollars, for more information visit: http://auroraremembers.org

Nadia Bolz-Weber looks more like a tall, tough biker than most people's views of a pastor, and hearing much of her life story wouldn't change that guess. She's a sober alcoholic, a former stand-up comic, covered with tattoos, and of course a woman to boot. But in her new book, she takes us on the journey that led her back to G-d and to founding and shepherding a church, Denver's own House for All Sinners and Saints.
That journey back to G-d came from what Bolz-Weber calls the "underside." It was through her own journey to sobriety, her experiences with her "own community of underside dwellers that", she says, "I couldn't help but begin to see... the life-changing reality that God is not far off, but here among the brokenness of our lives." Her theology reflects that. She talks about the Christian teachings of redemption, and of death and resurrection, from that space. For her, they're about being able to rise again from the ashes of our failures, from the complete destruction of our lives and our sense of ourselves, from losses we don't think we can bear.
The book weaves stories of her own personal journey with those of her church, its people, and fellow pastors who are struggling in their own ways. She talks about the awfulness and the gifts life can bring us -- a friend's suicide, strangers' deaths while she was a hospital chaplain, unexpected connections with and among people at her church, honoring a transgender friend's public transition with a church ceremony, and dealing as individuals and as a community with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the massive earthquake in Haiti, and Aurora's own movie theater massacre.
Pastrix is sometimes harsh and snarky and what some would consider irreverent. It's also very funny, honest, observant, and moving. It's clearly and definitely Christian, but it still spoke deeply to me as a person who follows another faith. This is a book about G-d and religion for anyone who's felt alienated from them, or anyone who can appreciate the ongoing spiritual struggle of a woman wrestling deeply with her faith.
