Eight Reasons I don't want to be your friend on Facebook.
You've requested my virtual friendship. Thank you! But I decline. Why?
Below is a more or less serious list of real reasons I don't accept friend requests on Facebook…I write silly social media things, more often, since this whole subject begs two questions:
1. who cares! And I'd answer: right on. None of us should be too self-serious. That said, social media is the marketplace, the virtual bookstore or cafe, where the world meets and shares and connects, these days. For my web site, it's where we connect with our readers, much in the way magazines connect with readers in a grocery aisle or bookstore. So, it is important.
2. who cares! It's more fun to make fun of ourselves than answer seriously. For serious.
But…for more than two years I've had 1,000 to 1,500 pending friend requests from people I don't know if I want to "friend" on FB, and no real bulk way to reply or deal with them, so I figured I'd just let a few of you patient folks know that I'm sorry I haven't accepted your request, but…
1. Social media protocol 101: you haven't chosen a profile pic. So you got that Darth Vader hair thing goin' on. Can't be bothered to choose a profile pic? Clearly, you're either computer-illiterate (which is fine, but get help if you're interested at your local library or with a friend, if you can) and don't get FB or are too cool for FB, which is also fine—but then your virtual friendship won't mean much…because you hardly use the thing. Active friends make for interaction, and as in real life, two-way friendship are best in digitalland.
2. You're a bit…stalkerish. Either for reals, or you're merely casually desperate for interaction. You're a huge fan/hater of me, and I had to block you because you're a stalker/fan/hater in real life and/or you leave weird comments and/or you text me randomly, full of emotionalism, pre-judgement, and preconceptions. So…no, thanks.
3. We don't have any friends in common, and you don't work for a company I work with and you don't seem to know anyone I know, or you only know people I don't really know, so you're a third degree removed kinda virtual friend. Let's keep it real.
4. You have a picture of yourself doing yoga as your profile pic, or a pinteresty quote , or a picture of crop circles, or a marijuana leaf, or a photo of yourself topless (from the back) at Burning Man, or you're wearing a bikini or flexing your six-pack. All real-life examples, and all are fine and dandy, but…a bit tacky.
5. You're…not a person. You're a corporation, my friend. If you're a business, get yourself a business fan page, and if I'm a fan, I'll fan you. I mean, it.
6. I can't. I can't accept your friend request, because I've been over Facebook's arbitrary 5,000 friend limit for 2.5 years. Yes, I actually know or have a real connection to just about all of those people, through various communities and jobs and activities. So: I wish you'd fan my fan page, but it's awkward to say "hey, I'm just about over FB's friend limit, fan me on my page?" But I do anyway, since it's my only choice…though, now, FB charges $1 to send a message to someone you don't know or something…even if they friend requested you, first.
7. You like to post profound quotes by yourself.
8. I know you in real life…and don't particularly like you in real life or you don't seem to like me in real life or we do know each other but never say hello…and I'm not sure why we want to be virtual friends.
I think that's it. Did I forget anything? If so, offer your reason/s in comments, below.

I think I'd add to this list that, especially if I don't know you, and you don't send a message or something describing why you're bothering to "friend" me then know that for sure that I won't respond. By the way, thanks for accepting my friend request.
Wow, what a strange and rather cruel article…I am surprised to see this here on EJ. I think you could have gracefully gotten away with just posting reason number 6 and left it at that.
I don't use Facebook because to me it just seems like an uglier version of high school, and this post pretty much confirms my belief.
I do believe you are kinder than this, Waylon.
Right on target as usual Waylon! I would add:
9. Yeah, we went to high school together (or yoga teacher training/college/whatever) and didn't really talk then, why connect now?
10. Some folks just seem very concerned in having a large number of "friends" regardless of who they are choosing to friend. Let's connect because there's a reason….like we've met or have a common interest….
11. Let's not forget the guy/girl who took one yoga class with me yesterday and found me on FB…perhaps that is covered under #2….
P.S. I have a profile pic of myself doing a yoga pose….not an awesome asana, just something simple. it's my life. I put it out there to hopefully filter out some of those people I mentioned above! Guess it's not really working. LOL.
Thanks again for keeping it real!
Facebookemon: gotta catch 'em all!
I have a false name on fb because I do not want friend requests, my only 2 friends are my children. I tried doing it properly but didn't like it, I am not interested in the rubbish people post.
But, I have a busy newsfeed full of everything I am interested in. All my hobbies and interests are represented by countless pages, many of which I have 'liked'.
It's a fantastic read, like a personal daily newspaper, printed full of only things I want to read about. I have 'liked' all the EJ pages, there is art, literature, music, Buddhist stuff – all sorts. Brilliant.
I know you from a business group but I don't really know you. I post family and close friend stuff on my personal page. SHOULD I friend these people?
I must say that I was disappointed to read such an article on EJ. I was under the impression that this was a place of kindness and compassion, a place of caring and understanding. It looks as though, like all of us, even our beloved EJ is subject to wrong thought, wrong action, and wrong speech. I realize that in this digital age it is not always prudent to make yourself available or vulnerable to every person that wishes to 'friend' on Facebook. I personally deny people on a regular basis simply because I do not yet know them well enough to share my personal life with them that readily. It is not however, in my opinion, necessary to berate them, disrespect them, or mock them. I hope that the folks at EJ can find peace and loving kindness with for themselves, and these potential friends on Facebook.
Yeah, some of this I just have to think on. I like what Rachel Brathen said once. Someone was posting or commenting on her wall/posts a lot and said something about maybe it being too much and she said "No such thing as too much. Just love, love, and more love"… or something along those lines… might have changed up the wording a bit.
I don't know what it is lately (well actually I do know) why I'm no longer impressed by the FB or any other Social Media posts from pretzel yogis or Cirque Du Soleil yogis., etc.. They look cringe-worthy, contrived and very transparent. They come off as needing a tremendous amount of attention. After 13 years of practicing, teaching & owning a yoga studio I would, however, be floored and even save the picture if I saw a yogi in Savasana!
My entire family ( my husband and adult children) are friends with someone we do business with. This person will not accept my friend request. He is always on and has friends with many other parents. It's very odd. I need to sign on my husbands account to see whats happening with our venture. I just dont' get it.
I'm amazed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that's both equally educative and engaging, and without a doubt, you have hit tthe
nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough people aare speaking intelligently
about. I am very happy I came across this during myy hunt for something relating to this.

Dynamics: Analysis and Design of Systems in Motion - Text Only (2ND 10 Edition)by Benson H. Tongue
Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:
The second edition provides engineers with a conceptual understanding of how dynamics is applied in the field. It builds their problem-solving skills. New problems with a wider variety of difficulty levels and applications have been added. New images are included to add a visual element to the material. These show the link between an actual system and a modeled/analyzed system. Engineers will also benefit from the numerous new worked problems, algorithmic problems, and multi-part GO problems.
NOTE: This title does not come with an online access code.
Book News Annotation:
Dynamics is one of the toughest subjects for undergraduate engineering students, says Tongue (U. of California-Berkeley), because there is a logic to it that is not obvious, but is necessary to grasp in order for anything to make sense. His goal is to introduce the material and the logic in a personal manner that retains the necessary rigor while explaining the underlying notions sufficiently that students can begin solving problems of their own immediately. He relies heavily on sketching and other graphics, develops structured problem-solving procedures, analyzes dynamic motion with computers (MATLAB), applies principles to engineering systems, and includes study tools. The first edition was published in 2005. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Days after cracks were discovered on a part of the western tower of Sri Devarajaswamy temple in Little Kancheepuram, B. Raja, joint commissioner (Vellore) of the Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowment Board, on Thursday, said rectification of the defect was 'a minor repair work'.
The JC inspected the crack that developed on the eastern side of the western tower and said the Board's architect would inspect the crack and suggest ways to rectify the same.
When asked if a fresh estimate would be prepared for carrying out the repair, Mr. Raja said it was not a major work and there was no need to consecrate the tower again. It was just 'a minor repair' like replacing or fixing electrical fittings.
'Renovation exceeded budget'
Meanwhile, the local representative who undertook renovation of the western tower on behalf of the donor said cost of works had exceeded the approved budget by around Rs. 8 lakh.
He said a work order of Rs. 25 lakh was issued and the renovation was completed on December 29, 2010. During renovation, it was found that eight wooden beams on different tiers of the gopuram (tower) had become weak and a few granite steps were found in a damaged state.
"The defective beams and damaged steps were replaced though they were not mentioned in the list of works suggested by temple authorities," he said. The representative said that though a completion certificate had been obtained early in 2011, the tower was consecrated only in July this year.
Doors to be fixed
Responding to a query on why the doors to the eastern tower were not fixed prior to consecration, the JC said the doors would be installed in a week.

Troy might know who it was - I seem to think it might have been Alfie Cox - well, a South African - but, one year of the Wynn's, there was a KX500, complete with a Down Pipe, entered. I don't think it finished. When I watched it doing the Prologue at Amaroo Park, I thought to myself, "I hope they've got a LOT of spare pipes with them".
The Sth African you are thinking of was a guy from France named - Luc Grajwoda - he made a habit out of riding a monocoque framed KX 500 creation in the Dakar and various other rallies in the early to mid nineties...
The 1992 Australian safari was one of them
And above is a photo (taken by moi) from the very prologue at Amaroo park that you remembered...
The thing used to vibrate that much that it often split/fractured the welds on the chassis and aluminium fuel tanks/subframe construction... and as i recall his eyeballs were still going up and down a half hour after he climbed off the thing at the bivouac of a night...

Holmcultram Abbey
Holmcultram Abbey
|Monastery information
|Full name
|Holmcultram Abbey
|Visible remains
|Nave; still used as the parish church
|Public access
Holmcultram Abbey (alternatively Holm Cultram Abbey or Holme Cultram Abbey) was a Cistercian monastery founded in 1150 in what is now the village of Abbeytown in Cumbria in England but at the time of foundation was in territory in the possession of David I of Scotland, who together with his son, Henry, founded it in 1150. The mother-house was Melrose Abbey, of the filiation of Cîteaux.
The community established a daughter house at Grey Abbey in Northern Ireland in 1193.
The area was re-claimed in 1157 by Henry II of England and the abbey's Scots origins did not protect it thereafter from attacks by Scots raiders, from whom it suffered repeatedly from 1216 onwards, with a particularly severe attack in 1319. It was dissolved in 1538, when the parish petitioned for, and obtained, the use of the church.
Of the monastic buildings, nothing survives. The former abbey church underwent a series of structural accidents (such as the collapse of the tower in 1600) and alterations as a result of which it gradually shrank to comprise the first six bays of the nave, without aisles. In addition the roof was lowered to the height of a single storey and there were two energetic restorations in 1883 and 1913. This nevertheless left a large enough building to continue to serve to the present day as the parish church of Abbeytown.
The church was severely damaged by arson on 9 June 2006, when original records of the monastery, including the cartulary, were destroyed.[1]

Running like the breeze: An Aussie mix community
|About this Journal
|Welcome to all Aussie mix lovers! Hope you join and enjoy the community!
|Sep. 30th, 2011 @ 02:43 pm looking for advice on training pls
Current Mood: contentHello,
I adopted a aussie cattle dog/ begal mix in july of this year. I wanted a dog that was nothing like my old sheppard/rotti mix, and boy did i manage to get that.
My dogs name is Blueberry, but we usually only call her Blue. She came with her name and we didnt want to change it because we figured she had already had enough change. She was brought to Ontario from Ohio. From what i have been told she was a stray and had 1 litter of puppies before she was brought here. She was in a high kill shelter in Ohio. We figure she is about 2 and 1/2. She is an amazing little dog, and my daughter loves her to death. My issue is that she is too smart for her own good, and she is one of the most stubborn dogs I have ever come across. Is there anyone out there that finds this to be true of their aussie mix? When she is upset with me she will pee or poop in the house, and she loves to get into the garbage and the kitty litter :s
Any advice or suggestions are welcomed. I would love to know that i am not the only one having issues with this mix breed of dog.
Thank you
|Jul. 28th, 2010 @ 12:22 pm Aussie/beagle mix
|I just adopted an 8 month old aussie/beagle mix. She's already 30 pounds and is really energetic. She tries to eat everything and hates her crate. she'll hold her bowels over night but wont give us a signal during the day to let her out. instead she goes next to the cat box. any suggestions on this and on how to get her to stop biting and jumping when we get home?
|Jul. 8th, 2010 @ 09:10 pm the cure?
Current Mood: amusedSo the pup is pretty pathetic, howling and whining and crying mostly b/c he just wants out to play... I decide to go through a stack of old CD's that weren't labeled. I come across an old Michael Jackson mix I made, like, a 6-7 years ago and the dog stops everything and stares at the CD player, then lays down and goes to sleep..I will put this on repeat and listen to it for days if that's all it takes to sleep all night LOL!
|Jul. 8th, 2010 @ 06:04 pm (no subject)
Current Mood: melancholyWell I am now the owner of the saddest puppy...just got back from the vet and he is now "fixed." All he wants to do is jump on the couch, and i can't let him do anything, so im keeping him in his crate as the vet suggested to keep him "quiet." I want to know how exactly you are supposed to keep an Aussie quiet LOL. I took away his toys and he started attacking his blanket, i took his blanket away, and he attacks his own tail JEEEEZ! So for 3 days I get to be the mean mommy, and try not to cry more than him LOL

Current Mood: chipperHey all! I just stumbled across this site when trying to find some more info about my new puppy, Mider. He is almost 12 weeks old and is an Aussie mix...just not quite sure what the other half is, but its looking like beagle. We adopted him from a local shelter when he was 8 weeks old and is already the love of our lives :) As I write this, he is curled up under my footrest, snoring away...gotta love that!!! So anyhow...its good to see that there is a place for us mutt lovers!

Hello, I just found this group today while I was killing some time before leaving work. I adopted my dog from the Humane Society in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. There were four puppies and they said they were aussie shepherd/cattle dog mixes. I've done some reading and found that only the shepherds can have blue eyes, but his coat is shaggy in some spots and short in others. I don't have many pictures of him here at work, but do have these. We named him Brett Favre, as we got him as a 4-month-old puppy in March 2008, right after the human Brett retired - the first time.

|Zepplin's over a year and a half old, and I've had him for over a year now. I can't believe time flies that quickly, it seems like only yesterday he was a little floppy eared furball. Now he's bat-eard, ACD mix of terror!
( Cute Doesn"t Even Begin to DescribeCollapse )
X-posted like whoah. So sorry if you see this more than once.
|Sep. 15th, 2008 @ 05:22 pm Doggie DNA Blood Test
|I keep in contact with this girl Jennifer. She owns Fonzie who is Zepplin's brother. We both constantly debated and guessed as to what our two little boys could be. We both knew Australian Cattle Dog was the obvious main part of our boys' heritage. But what else was in their blood? We both assumed some sort of terrier, Rat Terrier being the main culprit.
To make a long story short Jennifer got the blood test done for Fonzie and e-mailed me the results the other day. So... what are our two boys besides Australian Cattle Dog?
Here's a picture of the two for a refresher.
( Larger picture of the two under the cutCollapse )
Okay so you ready for the results?? You suuuuuure???
Mostly Australian Cattle Dog (as we already knew), with trace amounts of Rhodesian Ridgeback and Weimaraner.
Here's a picture of these two breeds for a ( reference.Collapse )

Your browser does not support iframes.A heavy downpour of rain caused some serious problems for the New York Yankees grounds crew Monday night as they tried to pull the tarp over the infield.The game was stopped in the bottom of the fourth inning when the skies opened above Yankee Stadium and forced the field maintenance team into action.As you can see, the grounds crew struggled mightily to get the tarp on in the midst of the rain, getting soaked and fatigued in the process.They eventually managed to get the job done, drawing a round of cheers and applause from the few folks in the stands who hadn't taken cover.The game resumed an hour later after a brief delay.

The NFL draft is set to begin Thursday in New York. Football fans in Seattle and across the country will be paying close attention.
The Seahawks will hold a draft viewing party at the CenturyLink Event Center for 4500 preregistered season ticket holders.
Those who didn't make that list told KING5 they'll be in front of a television somewhere, watching the Seahawks' picks.
If you're really an NFLfan, you pay attention to the draft, said Seahawks fan Lorenzo Ray. Sometimes the draft can be unpredictable!
Two very lucky Seahawks fans will be traveling to New York for the draft, courtesy of the team.
Season ticket holder Michael Huston of Marysville will be given V.I.P. access to the draft. He will walk the red carpet with other hand-picked season ticket holders from teams around the league. He'll also get the chance to hand NFLCommissioner Roger Goodell a customized No. 1 Nike jersey from backstage as picks are announced during Round One of the draft. Huston has been a season ticket holder since 1985.
U.S. Army Ranger Sergeant JeffBaker will announce the Seahawks 4th Round pick at Radio City Music Hall. He is a graduate of Stanwood High School and is a longtime Seahawks fan. He is an active duty soldier now stationed at FortBenning.
Finally, retired Seahawk and Hall of Famer Walter Jones will announce the Seahawks second round pick.
On Wednesday, Jones tweeted: Heading to NYC for the NFL Draft 2013. Who's going number one? Can't wait to make the Seahawks second round pick. Go Seahawks!
As for who the Seahawks might pick, every fan has a few suggestions.
Me personally, I think they need an offensive lineman, said fan Kevin Knapp. And maybe wide receivers.
The Seahawks have a total of seven picks in this year's NFL Draft: 32, 64, 132, 146, 172, 208, 247.

The Bungalowby Sarah Jio
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In 2011, Sarah Jio burst onto the fiction scene with two sensational novels--The Violets of March and The Bungalow. With Blackberry Winter--taking its title from a late-season, cold-weather phenomenon--Jio continues her rich exploration of the ways personal connections can transcend the boundaries of time.
Seattle, 1933. Single mother Vera Ray kisses her three-year-old son, Daniel, goodnight and departs to work the night-shift at a local hotel. She emerges to discover that a May-Day snow has blanketed the city, and that her son has vanished. Outside, she finds his beloved teddy bear lying face-down on an icy street, the snow covering up any trace of his tracks, or the perpetrator's.
Seattle, 2010. Seattle Herald reporter Claire Aldridge, assigned to cover the May 1 "blackberry winter" storm and its twin, learns of the unsolved abduction and vows to unearth the truth. In the process, she finds that she and Vera may be linked in unexpected ways...
"Jio's second novel (after The Violets of March) is a saccharine romance framed around WWII and the Tahitian island of Bora-Bora. A letter found by her grandchild in the trash spurs Anne Calloway Godfrey of Seattle to recount a wartime romance and the dissolution of a childhood friendship. Conflicted about her impending nuptials to Gerard Godfrey, the young Anne and her best friend Kitty enlist as nurses for the war effort. But once Anne reaches the beautiful island of Bora-Bora, she finds the other nurses, including Kitty, disappointingly man hungry. While Kitty becomes entangled in a dangerous romance with one soldier, Anne is drawn to another, Westry Green, an officer, due to a shared interest in a nearby deserted bungalow, considered cursed by the native Tahitians. Though the bungalow becomes the site of Anne and Westry's romantic rendezvous, Anne's cloying, self-righteous attitude, obnoxious behavior, and naïve mistakes in dealing with Westry make it hard for readers to buy their relationship. Meanwhile Kitty's romantic entanglements harden her and ruin her relationship with Anne. Jio attempts to deepen her story with the addition of a murder mystery but an overwhelming profusion of deadening wartime clichés makes for a dull, frustrating read." Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
A sweeping World War II saga of thwarted love, murder, and a long-lost painting.
In the summer of 1942, twenty-one-year-old Anne Calloway, newly engaged, sets off to serve in the Army Nurse Corps on the Pacific island of Bora-Bora. More exhilarated by the adventure of a lifetime than she ever was by her predictable fiancé, she is drawn to a mysterious soldier named Westry, and their friendship soon blossoms into hues as deep as the hibiscus flowers native to the island. Under the thatched roof of an abandoned beach bungalow, the two share a private world-until they witness a gruesome crime, Westry is suddenly redeployed, and the idyll vanishes into the winds of war.
A timeless story of enduring passion, The Bungalow chronicles Anne's determination to discover the truth about the twin losses-of life, and of love-that have haunted her for seventy years.
From acclaimed novelist Sarah Jio (The Bungalow, The Violets of March) a new "mystery-slash-love story [that] will have you racing to the end"
Seattle, 1933. Vera Ray kisses her three-year-old son, Daniel, goodnight and reluctantly leaves for work. She hates the nightshift, but it's the only way she can earn enough to keep destitution at bay. In the morning—even though it's the second of May—a heavy snow is falling. Vera rushes to wake Daniel, but his bed is empty. His teddy bear lies outside in the snow.
Seattle, present day. On the second of May, Seattle Times reporter, Claire Hanson, awakens to another late-season snowstorm. Assigned to cover this "blackberry winter" and its predecessor decades earlier, Claire learns of Daniel's unsolved abduction and vows to unearth the truth—only to discover that she and Vera are linked in unexpected ways.

Lost Interest Quickly
posted 6 years ago
My parrot got bored with this fairly quickly. While it was colorful and had some rope to pick apart, it had no wood to tear up. His favorite thing to do is tear up the wooden toys, so I won't be wasting my money on something like this again.
Pros: Colorful
Cons: Nothing To Chew Up

Washington, DC 20001
Mary Bono, a former United States congresswoman who represented California's Inland Empire and Desert Region in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1998-2013, focuses her government advocacy and consulting practice on legislative, regulatory and policy matters affecting the technology, privacy, data security, energy and health care industries. During Mary's 15-year congressional career, she served on the Energy and Commerce Committee, the House Armed Services Committee, the Judiciary Committee and the Small Business Committee. A public figure herself, Mary utilizes her firsthand media relations experience to provide guidance to clients on media and strategic communications matters.
Mary is widely recognized as a national leader on privacy issues and a global champion of Internet innovation. As a member of the Telecommunications and the Internet subcommittees in the House, Mary focused on key public policy issues relating to telecommunications, privacy and cybersecurity. During Mary's lengthy tenure in Congress, the House of Representatives passed many of her bills, including the Securely Protect Yourself Against Cyber Trespass (SPY ACT), which protects an individual's personal information on the Web. The House also passed a resolution introduced by Mary that expressed congressional support of an Internet free from intergovernmental control.
Mary brings firsthand experience to her clients as she works with them to develop thoughtful policies that grow the Internet economy and maximize opportunities to compete in the global marketplace. As a leading proponent of the Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998, Mary has been a strong advocate for thoughtful and meaningful intellectual property policies to protect the rights of those who create digital content, including movies, television, music, video games and other media. She has also worked closely with various agencies on regulatory issues, including the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Commerce. Through her well-established reputation in this area, Mary has developed lasting professional relationships with well-known high-tech firms and cutting-edge startups in Washington, D.C., California and throughout the country.
Mary was the first woman to serve as the Republican chairman of the subcommittees on the Energy and Commerce Committee. She was awarded the gavel to chair the prestigious Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade Subcommittee, with jurisdiction over the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the National Highway Transportation Administration (NHTSA) and other high-profile agencies. Mary earned a reputation for being a consensus builder, adept at building bipartisan support for her legislative initiatives, including the Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act, which saved thousands of American jobs when it was signed into law by President Obama. Mary's commitment to jumpstart American manufacturing led her subcommittee to convene multiple hearings in an effort to "Make Made in America Matter Again."
As a longtime member of the Energy and Commerce Committee, Mary supported American energy and was involved in passing comprehensive energy policies. Her deep understanding of energy policy complements the sophisticated energy practices at FaegreBD Consulting and its law firm affiliate, Faegre Baker Daniels. While serving on the E&C Committee, Mary and her colleagues considered a number of key legislative initiatives impacting the oil and gas industry, including:
Mary's instrumental involvement in this legislation gives her a unique perspective on these issues as they continue to be deliberated in Congress.
Mary's record as a congresswoman speaks highly of her commitment to technology, job creation and consumer protection. She is equally well known for her willingness to step to the forefront of the nationwide fight against prescription drug abuse as co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on Prescription Drug Abuse. While in Congress, she successfully spearheaded health-related legislation, including the Combating Autism Act and the reauthorization of the Ryan White Care Act. Today, Mary combines her vast experience with technology, cybersecurity and privacy with her knowledge and reputation on health care matters. Mary recognizes that, whether talking about the security of medical devices or the privacy of medical records, promoting technology while protecting information and privacy is essential.
As the daughter of a World War II veteran, Mary has been deeply involved throughout her career on issues important to American veterans and active members of the U.S. military. Most notably, she played a pivotal role in the creation of much-needed VA clinics in Blythe and Palm Desert, California. Today, she remains a key part of the Navy Seal Foundation.
As a congresswoman, Mary had legislation signed into law by Presidents Clinton, Bush and Obama — testament to her understanding and mastery of legislative and political processes. Mary also served as chair of the Women's Policy Committee in the House, which included 24 female Republican lawmakers from 17 states. She spearheaded passage of legislation that established the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument in the Palm Springs region, a novel approach for balancing private property rights with the preservation of unique natural lands. The Secretary of the Interior cited this legislation as the model for future designations of such nature. Mary was also the driving force behind multiple pieces of legislation that settled decades-old water disputes between water agencies, local governments and local Native American tribes.

Interaction of legionella pneumophila and helicobacter pylori with bacterial species isolated from drinking water biofilms
1 School of Biological Sciences, Life Sciences Building, Highfield Campus, University of Southampton, Southampton SO17 1BJ, UK
2 Institute for Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Centre of Biological Engineering, Universidade do Minho, Campus de Gualtar 4710-057, Braga, Portugal
3 LEPAE, Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, Porto, Portugal
BMC Microbiology 2011, 11:57 doi:10.1186/1471-2180-11-57Published: 18 March 2011
It is well established that Legionella pneumophila is a waterborne pathogen; by contrast, the mode of Helicobacter pylori transmission remains unknown but water seems to play an important role. This work aims to study the influence of five microorganisms isolated from drinking water biofilms on the survival and integration of both of these pathogens into biofilms.
Firstly, both pathogens were studied for auto- and co-aggregation with the species isolated from drinking water; subsequently the formation of mono and dual-species biofilms by L. pneumophila or H. pylori with the same microorganisms was investigated. Neither auto- nor co-aggregation was observed between the microorganisms tested. For biofilm studies, sessile cells were quantified in terms of total cells by SYTO 9 staining, viable L. pneumophila or H. pylori cells were quantified using 16 S rRNA-specific peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes and cultivable cells by standard culture techniques. Acidovorax sp. and Sphingomonas sp. appeared to have an antagonistic effect on L. pneumophila cultivability but not on the viability (as assessed by rRNA content using the PNA probe), possibly leading to the formation of viable but noncultivable (VBNC) cells, whereas Mycobacterium chelonae increased the cultivability of this pathogen. The results obtained for H. pylori showed that M. chelonae and Sphingomonas sp. help this pathogen to maintain cultivability for at least 24 hours.
It appears that M. chelonae may have an important role in the survival of both pathogens in drinking water. This work also suggests that the presence of some microorganisms can decrease the cultivability of L. pneumophila but not the viability which indicates that the presence of autochthonous microorganisms can lead to misleading results when the safety of water is assessed by cultivable methods alone.

How many OG Xbox and Xbox 360 owners skipping the next xbox?
Won't really matter to me, as I tend to not get consoles on launch. I'll wait and see what the limiting factors are, and what lance lineup we get. That and I'm not in the financial position to spend that much money.

I love it when someone responds with such a cocky demeanor not realizing how wrong they are. It just makes it all the more satisfying. You seem to think that if MSs nextbox doesnt have always online, it was something removed last second due to poor feedback. The point that article made (did you even read it?) and what Ive been saying from day one, is that people are misinterpreting what always online would likely mean IF MS chooses to go that route. Being that always online would be a feature the box would support IF your connection was, in fact, always online. You have constant connection? Then your box will always be on for you. But a disconnection would not disable singleplayer games, movies, and tv. You might have to consider that the guy who made that prediction who is NEVER wrong OMG may have misinterpreted what always online was going to mean for the system as well.
You would probably have less people arguing with you if your gut reaction wasnt to immediately be a smartass. I'm willing to not go that route because I, also, like cheese.

And that's all I have, but it does say that.
[Is that a bad thing?]
"I don't know because I don't know what it means. You know, when you look at some of the stories that were coming out this week about, you know, I saw a headline that said something like 'Next Xbox could be okay without an internet connection for as long as 3 minutes' or something like that. I don't even know what that means, so for me, Xbox 360 is almost entirely an online experience. Most of the games I play are multiplayer, where you're playing against other people online. Or you're using it as an entertainment device when you're connected to a service like Netflix or Xbox video, so that is an internet-connected device. In this phrase, it says 'must be internet-connected to use', you know, that suggests that you can't even boot into the UI and playI don't know, I don't know, I don't have one."
GameFAQS... a forum where the mods fall asleep for days at a time and when they do their job, they do it badly.
The only thing I know is I wont be buying it at alunch (same with PS4 of course).
Realistically there is going to be one of 3 things to make me get one.
1 - a game comes out for it which I cant resist, might be star ocean 5, lost oddysey 2, a tales game thats exclusive to xbox, possibly fable 4. But I probably will wait for at least 3 killer games rather than just 1.
2 - my current 360 dies and the new model has full BC so that becomes the logical replacement.
3 - I get given one as a gift, this is very unlikely however.
First I would like to hear the details before choosing which console I will pick up at launch but even if they were to announce at E3 Alan Wake 2 and a bunch of real (not timed) exclusives which do not revolve around Halo, Forza & Fable I would still have in the back of my mind they would just be trying to appeal to me for a couple of years before leaving me hanging with kinect exclusives and video streaming services. At this point I would rather give my money to a company which still releases new IPs in the last year of the cycle, like Sony is doing with the last of us and beyond.

As to my theory that this feature is being removed from the Next Xbox, that is truly just that: my theory.
I think you mean "hypothesis." Or "guess."
A theory is something that's actually been tried and true after relentless attempts to discredit and debunk.

I love it when someone responds with such a cocky demeanor not realizing how wrong they are. It just makes it all the more satisfying. You seem to think that if MSs nextbox doesnt have always online, it was something removed last second due to poor feedback. The point that article made (did you even read it?) and what Ive been saying from day one, is that people are misinterpreting what always online would likely mean IF MS chooses to go that route ...
Agreed. Perhaps David Jaffe (of all people) said it best weeks ago: "You'd have to be a BLEEPing dumbass to think Microsoft is going prevent people from playing their single-player games without an Internet connection." Or ... something along those lines.

Story By 'Catch-22' Author Published For First Time
By editor
Sometime between the late 1940s and early 1950s — before he wrote "Catch-22" — author Joseph Heller wrote a short story called "Almost Like Christmas."
The story of racism and violence in a small town has most likely never been published, but it will now see the light of day.
"Almost Like Christmas" is being published by The Strand Magazine. Strand's managing editor Andrew Gulli discovered the work at a library at Brandeis University.
The short story does not feature the humor that came to be Heller's hallmark.
"There's an attitude of despair in 'Almost Like Christmas,'" Gulli said. In Heller's later works, such as Catch-22, Gulli said that the despair is replaced by, "a sardonic laughter at the ridiculousness of the human condition."

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Shares of Papa John's International (PZZA - Get Report) have gained more than 5% since Republican nominee Mitt Romney mentioned the fast food pizza chain in a speech on Tuesday.
Shares of the Louisville, Ky.-based company are at $52.55, up 4 cents, or 0.08% on Thursday, but have risen 5.6% since Tuesday trading.
Though the latest Web video doesn't broadcast the candidate's somewhat humorous reference to Papa John's, it is the third straight day when media outlets, replaying the speech, have unintentionally given the pizza seller national airtime."Remember when -- what was it -- a couple months ago with the Etch-a-Sketch company? They mentioned that out there on the campaign trail and that stock popped," said Brian Sozzi, chief strategic officer at NBG Productions. "So I guess maybe if your company gets mentioned out there in the political campaign in a positive light, or any light, it's essentially free marketing and everyone goes to do their research on the company." But Sozzi suggested,

Former Aston Villa captain Gareth Southgate says Paul Lambert must remain in charge, no matter what happens at the end of this season.
Southgate, who can sympathise with Lambert's plight, was sacked when Middlesbrough were fourth, one point off the Championship leadership.
He is adamant that must not happen to Lambert.
"It was a big gamble by Lambert and Villa because I did it myself and the difficulty is that young players will make mistakes. You have to live with that," said Southgate. "There is an element of risk. When it gets to the end of the season you are never sure how they will react, but the last few weeks have been good for Villa.
"Even if Villa go down, I don't see why you would change when you have a guy there as manager who has had success before. That would be a mistake.
"Villa should not change having put this policy in place. They should stick with it."

People fear that if there's a beehive on their rooftop, they'll be stung… [but] Honeybees are interested in water, pollen and nectar… The real danger is the skewed public perception of the danger of honeybees.
[NYtimes Article]
People fear that if there's a beehive on their rooftop, they'll be stung… [but] Honeybees are interested in water, pollen and nectar… The real danger is the skewed public perception of the danger of honeybees.
Bug Girl writes:
I love books, and I love words, so I was excited to find an website that specializes in breaking down the origins of common catch phrases. Today's phrase: The Bee's Knees.
According to that site (and a few other sources), references to "bee knees" occasionally occurred in the early 1900?s: 'Bee's knees' began to be used in early 20th century America. Initially, it was just a nonsense expression that denoted something that didn't have any meaningful existence…..That meaning is apparent in a spoof report in the New Zealand newspaper The West Coast Times in August 1906, which listed the cargo carried by the SS Zealandia as 'a quantity of post holes, 3 bags of treacle and 7 cases of bees' knees'…… Zane Grey's 1909 story, The Shortstop, has a city slicker teasing a yokel by questioning him about make-believe farm products:
"How's yer ham trees? Wal, dog-gone me! Why, over in Indianer our ham trees is sproutin' powerful. An' how about the bee's knees? Got any bee's knees this Spring?"
Pretty much everything I've read, though, agrees that the likely popularization of the phrase really occurred in the 1920?s, the period of the flappers. "Bee's knees" is part of a fashion for nonsense rhyming slang from the Roaring 20s. The common feature of the slang expressions was mention of an animal part with some alliteration thrown in. Some of my favorites: "elephant's adenoids", "caterpillar's kimono", "gnat's elbows", "kipper's knickers", and "eel's ankle". You have probably heard another phrase that's survived from that period: "The Cat's Pajamas."
All of these phrases generally translate to what, today, would be said as "Awesome!" (Although I suspect there is a newer word for that, but I'm just too old and un-hip to know about it.)
The phrase occurs in print in several places in the US in 1922; Newspapers published "Flapper Dictionaries" to explain the strange and baffling lingo of those damn kids. There is a reference to the term in a Flapper Dictionary from Missouri in 1922; The Newark Advocate, (Ohio) in a 1922 piece printed:
"That's what you wonder when you hear a flapper chatter in typical flapper language. 'Apple Knocker,' for instance. And 'Bees Knees.' That's flapper talk. This lingo will be explained in the woman's page under the head of Flapper Dictionary."
Alas, while the concept of the phrase referring to the collection of pollen on actual bees' knees is appealing, it appears not to be the case.
If you want to have a fun 20?s flashback, here's some Harold Lloyd driving around NYC.
Backwards Beekeepers: Hollywood Hills cut-out
LA Backwards Beekeeper Roberta writes:
A call to the Bee Rescue Hotline sent us up to the Hollywood Hills to do a cut-out from an exterior garage wall. The homeowner said that the hive had been there for almost 20 years. There had also been two other hives on the property that other Backwards Beekeepers had removed.
Knowing that the hive had been there such a long time, we were surprised to find just one area with brood comb and an equal amount of space for just honey. It was funny how the bees had set up the hive: on the left of one wall stud was the brood and on the right (between the next set of studs) was the honey. There was very little crossover.
This hive was just barely hanging in there. Leah put the brood and bees into Rob's handmade nucs and brought them to one of her queenless hives.
We checked the hive the next day and there were some bees on the comb, but not many. There were also a bunch of bees left in the wall that didn't want to go into the nuc box that I had left there, so I'll need to move them on another night.
