Tristan Saghin is a real hero. He saved his sister from drowning into the family pool. Tristan is only nine years (9) old!

How did he know how to do CPR on a person? According to the CNN article, it all began when Tristan saw the movie Black Hawk Down.

Black Hawk Down is a movie about the war in Somalia, where war is, well, war. People die and all kinds of shit happens.

Now, Black Hawk Down is rated R (“under 17 requires adult guardian”). In the Scandinavian countries, it has an age limit of 15 to 16 years. If they’d show (or rather when they do/did) this movie in the TV in Scandinavia, the announcer would proclaim before the movie starts: “this movie contains scenes which may be harmful to children”.

Not so this time! This time it was just the opposite – it was in fact not only non-harmful, but truly life-saving.

PS. Thank goodness the movie only details war, violence and death. If Tristan had gotten interested in CPR from a movie where naked female breasts are seen, it surely would have created a massive outrage…

Thanks to Bozhidar Batsov, there is now a new Emacs port of Zenburn. It’s not a rewrite of Daniel Brockman’s version, but a completely new one. You can find the zenburn-emacs from Github. Be sure to check the blog post too.

Bozhidar also ported Zenburn to the Jekyll static site generator for Ruby, you can get the css for Jekyll here. I like it, it looks very good and especially the code blocks look great :) To see a live example, have a look at this blog post.

Good stuff. Thank you very much, Bozhidar!
