Technical Yahoo Interview
I applied through college or university. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Yahoo.
2 phone interviews. First one was pretty basic, asked about general concepts like object oriented programming. Second one came about a month later. Interviewer asked me to write some code/pseudocode on collabedit using singly linked lists. Also asked about binary trees and how to find least common ancestor using linked lists. Finally asked go to Sunnyvale for onsite interview day. The interview day took place a month after the second phone interview. The job title "Technical Yahoo" is just a general title for a programmer at yahoo. There are many different programming departments. General presentation of the company is given in front of everyone. Lunch is served. Later, an employee picks you up to take you to a room for interview. They ask technical questions, ask you to write code/pseudocode on whiteboard, explain your code, optimize, etc etc. 3 individual employees have separate 1 hour interview sessions in total. About 1-2 weeks later, you will know if you got an offer or not through email.

Other Interview Reviews for Yahoo
Technical Yahoo InterviewNo Offer
I had two phone interviews, one with an engineer and one with the hiring manager. The first interviewer was pretty inexperienced; he quizzed me on OOP terms for the whole interview (What is an abstract class? What does the static keyword mean?). The second interview was much more enjoyable as the interviewer was more skilled. He asked me to implement a Page class and a Book class, and to use these to determine how many times a given word appeared in a Book. He then asked me to optimize my solution, which I did using a HashMap.

The closing of a Bethel, Ohio's doctor's practice is shrouded in question marks, especially since an attempt was reportedly made to tie Portsmouth into the picture.
According to a story in the Cincinnati Enquirer, Dr. Curtis Everson, a 53-year-old graduate of Whight State University, locked his office doors in Bethel and at another office on Ohio 125 in Georgetown and disconnected the phones. A woman who went to the office to attempt to get medical equipment for her son, found a note on the door - "Closed due to unforseen circumstances. Contact Portsmouth Urgent Care next week for medical records."
The woman said she contacted Urgent Care at Southern Ohio Medical Center, and they told her they had never heard of him.
SOMC issued the same statement to the Daily Times. Eric Kephas, a spokesman for SOMC said, in a single sentence - "I can confirm that Dr. Curtis Everson is not, and has not, been employed at Southern Ohio Medical Center."
According to a website for Family Health Centers, Community Action Committee of Pike County - "Appointments with Dr. Everson can be made by calling the Family Health Center in West Portsmouth at 740-858-1063, or at our Waverly location toll free 1-866-267-0834 or 740-947-7726."
However, there is no date on the posting, so it is not known if the information is current.
The Daily Times then talked with Joan Wehrle, education and outreach manager for the State Medical Board of Ohio.
"He does have an active license," Wehrle said. "No disciplinary history."
According to the Enquirer, a group of people who worked for Everson filed an incident report with Bethel police because they have not been paid for the last two weeks. They obtained that information from the mother who had tried unsuccessfully to get help at his office, identified as Jane Harvan.

Couple deny arson chargeMay 21,2013Couple deny arson charge
A Fair Haven couple charged with torching their car dealership denied a pair of arson charges brought against them.
Edward David, 50, and his wife Tammy, 46, pleaded innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to felony charges of second-degree arson.
They were released on minimal court-ordered conditions after the hearing.
The pair allegedly lit a fire that destroyed their dealership on the evening of March 17.
A Vermont State Police investigation into the fire revealed that the couple left the building minutes before the fire started and that they are more than $1.1 million in debt including delinquent property taxes in the amount of $7,000 owed in Castleton and $21,000 in delinquent taxes owed in Fair Haven.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A Massachusetts man is facing a felony charge after police said he was driving in a...

Dinosaurs are everywhere this season, thanks to the new Jurassic Park movie. For younger dino fans, this Dinosaur Escape game is a more age appropriate entertainment. In this cooperative game players work together to help the dinosaur escape to Dinosaur Island before the volcano can erupt. Each player has a dinosaur playing piece, a mover. It's a game that involves counting, memory and turn taking to find a dinosaur behind a fern in the same habitat as the dinosaur you are moving. If you roll a T-Rex, watch out! All dinosaurs in play must move back to a start space. If you roll a volcano you place one piece of the volcano in the stand. The object is to find all three lost dinosaur tokens before the fifth and final piece of the volcano is built. Each round takes about 10 minutes. For 2-4 players ages 4 & up.

A fitting new version of the classic game of Operation, but designed for younger players and fans of Doc McStuffins. It has easier to grab pieces and a bigger opening so little hands will have less trouble getting the game pieces out. Our tester thought the sound had been toned down and was less intrusive than in earlier Operation games. Comes with 10 cardboard bandages to cover the boo-boos. 4 & up
Age: Preschool. Award Year: 2015. Click here to purchase the product on Amazon.com.
A concentration matching game with more playful pieces than usual. Turn over all the trucks and the school bus and they all look alike. Now kids take turns flipping two at a time looking to make a match. There are 12 pairs to match with graphics that are colorful and feature distinctive animals and products that kids will enjoy naming. There's a robot supply truck, air mail with a bird carrier, fresh fish, ice cream, tiger cakes, and lots more. They say 3 and up...we think older 4 and 5 year olds will have more fun with this.

Before they begin matching abstract symbols of letters and numbers, pre-readers learn about matching with picture images. With this set of colored images children look for the shadow images of the objects on their playing board. Use this to develop visual perception as well as knowing and naming the objects. Play it like a lotto game with two players or use it solo like a puzzle. 3 & up.
Age: Preschool. Award Year: 2015. Click here to purchase the product on Amazon.com.
Roll the color and number dice and pick up the number of bugs in the right color as the dice say. Players use the special grabbers to pick up their bugs. The player with the most bugs wins. A good choice for reinforcing counting and colors along with fine motor skills. Quick fun for beginners who are learning about turn taking and winning and losing. They will also like using the bugs for color sorting, counting and their own games. Try using them for learning about patterns: put down a line of bugs in a simple pattern such as purple, yellow, purple, yellow, purple...what will come next. Once they get the idea, make the patterns more complex. Yellow, yellow, blue, yellow, yellow, blue...what will come next? Showing them new and creative ways to use toys will inspire them to create their own original games. 3 & up

Kids with dexterity will love this dog racing game that reinforces colors and counting skills. Players start with dogs that grow as their opponents toss the die and count their moves on the race track. But everyone needs to watch out! When a player lands on a color that matches an opponents vest that opponent must add a piece to make his pooch longer. The object is to get your dog's tail across the finish line first. Marked for 4 & up, but we think some fours, especially boys will have fine motor trouble with the mechanics of fitting the dogs together. We think this will be a better game for 5's and up.
Age: Preschool, Early School Years. Award Year: 2015. Click here to purchase the product on Amazon.com.
A cleverly designed see-through paddle is used for this memory game. Slip 4-5 images into the paddle and show it to players. Shake it up and turn it over allowing one coin shaped token to come out. Now show the remaining items to players. Who knows which token is gone? Player that guesses it first keeps the token. Winner is the one with the most tokens. It comes with 100 playing tokens that also develop vocabulary as well as visual memory. Adapt the play to fit the age of your players and the number of images you use at one time. They say 3 & up, we'd say more like 4-5 year olds. Gradually increase the number of items shown as kids become more familiar with the game.
SNAP: Start with naming the items, select just a few and make them familiar items. Put fewer items in the arm of the paddle when you introduce the game. The object is to build success and language. Gradually add pieces as the game becomes familiar and they feel more at home with the game.
Age: Preschool, Early School Years. Award Year: 2015. Click here to purchase the product on Amazon.com.
A little luck, a lot of matching, and simple classifying all play a part in this game. Each player has a board that must be filled with dairy, baked goods, eggs, flowers, fruit and veggies. Kids take turns spinning the pointer and taking the playing piece that matches on of these items for their playing board. But before they can start collecting these items they must spin and land on a farmer to open their stand. This opening move can take time and with younger players you may want to skip it, leaving the farmer on each playing board to start. Recognizing the difference between fruits and veggies and classifying dairy goods calls for serious classifying for young preschoolers. They may also be a bit confused by the color of the eggs, especially the bluish ones. That said, this is a fun game with solid learning built into the mix. Marked 3 & up; we think older 4-6 will enjoy it more.
Age: Preschool, Early School Years. Award Year: 2015. Click here to purchase the product on Amazon.com.
We like this unusual multi-generational games that will be fun for a family occasions since it calls for a lot of talking and sharing of family stories. Players must collect six different colored cards that are drawn randomly from the pile. The tasks on the cards require players to tell about themselves or things they know about other players in the game. For example one task card asks a player to name "all my cousins from oldest to youngest" or to tell "an object I could not live without" or �three places where we have relatives." There are a few picture cards, too, that are supposed to evoke family stories that relate to your family. An uncomplicated game that is sure to produce good laughs and happy memories, this is designed for 3-7 players ages 6-99.
Age: Preschool, Early School Years. Award Year: 2015.
Players vie to be the first to collect five different outfits to dress their koala card. They take turns rolling the dice; one has pattern the other shows pants, tops, both or underwear. Players take a card that matches their dice, but watch out. If you roll underwear you lose all your cards and have to start over. (Sort of like going down a chute in Chutes and Ladders. With young players you may need to soften this with the loss of one card instead of all. A cute game for looking at details, pattern recognition, and turn-taking. A game for 2-4 players, 3 & up. We�d say this will be more fun for 4's and 5's.

Letter: Reality show
Gary Burris, Naples
Reality show
Recently, I've noticed a trend in the letters to the editor.
While I enjoy the conversation, I can do without naming the author and then attaching a label such as uninformed, unpatriotic or, even (egads) liberal. Opinions can be aired and challenges offered while maintaining respect and civility. Or not.
Has the culture of reality shows become the norm? If so, the Opinion section should have a catchy title such as "The Gulf Shore" or "Here Comes Honey Nay-Naples."

Owner Jerry Wells shows off the engine compartment in his 1962 Corvair pickup. The engine was swapped for another 140-horsepower unit.
Because the rear tailgate of the Corvair pickup opens fairly high, there is a ramp on the side of the vehicle that drops down for easy access to the bed.
Like all other Corvairs, the engine in this pickup is located at the end of the bed behind the rear axle.
Jerry Wells recently acquired this 1962 Corvair rampside pickup. He said it gets more attention than his 1965 Corvair convertible.
The spoiler on the Corvair convertible wasn't actually a factory option. It was added during restoration and integrated into the body panels.
The front seats out of Jerry Wells' Corvair came from a Honda Civic.
The interior of the Corvair was refurbished with a few aftermarket gauges and a new radio.
A friend of Jerry Wells built this custom front license plate for his 1965 Corvair.
Jerry Wells' 1962 Corvair pickup was refurbished in the 1970s, so it has some older touches, like the shag carpeting.
A small stalk on the dashboard controlled the transmission.
Since the Corvair is a rear-engine car, the front is generally used for cargo and the spare tire.

They are durable and long lasting. They hold up in the wash well and everything. Just make sure to not cut your slits too large or too close to seams and you're good to go. The kind of t-shirt you use also can matter. Stay away from the tissue thin knit shirts.

Vietnamese officials were not happy with a budget airline after a flight to the popular coastal travel destination, Nha Trang, featured a prelude of bikini-clad beauty pageant contestants dancing down the isle. Officials fined the airline company almost $1,000 for the unsanctioned display, which took place on August 3, the BBC reports.
The budget airline, VietJet Air, had staged the five women to dance on the airplane in order to give the flight a "holiday atmosphere." Apparently such a holiday atmosphere involves females clad in red bikini tops and sarongs dancing to a song with the lyrics "I'm crazy for banana" according to Boston.com.
Officials of the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam concluded on Wednesday that the airline should be fined because the company had put on a show that violated local aviation regulations, not necessarily because of the type of show the airline produced. The movements choreographed in the dance were not, in themselves, particularly risque and all clothing remained on, but the women were put on display as objects of admiration and consumerism.
Several videos of the packed pre-flight show surfaced on the internet after passengers filmed the dance with their cell phones. Airline spokespeople maintain that all cell phones were on safe mode for the flight.
ABC News points out that the short 60-minute flight should naturally be a big tourist draw but that the budget airline was trying to retain customers with the stunt. One airline spokesperson claimed that the dancing women were there to, "make passengers happy and to improve our customer service." This newest stunt is reminiscent of Korea Air commercials, which use the concept of attractive, enticing female flight attendants as products to draw customers in.

Good tip. I will avoid Airlines like this.
"Do you want a Vietnamese stripper with your Martini, sir?"
Good tip..Avoid all Airlines who practice this crap.
They actually look quite demure, by US standards.
Was the seat belt sign illuminated? If not, then a fine is not warranted.
Wow when I was there in the 60's the Vietnamese were just begining to embrace the capitalist, Democratic "American way of life". They've come a long way Papason. Fine, don't think so!!
Apart from the bikini's, there's nothing different about the way that airline conducts itself, vis a vis it's exploitation of women, than the way Pan Am blantantly exploited he female form. I think the author should spend a little time tending her own garden. Just saying.
I personally am not offended by this but I can certainly see why so many others might be. I am not so sure that an airline is an appropriate place for this to take place and I will also add that as a woman I too would agree that I am getting a tad tired of the one sided exposure of only the ladies out there....why is it that the men of the world are the only one's that get the pleasure of being entertained? Why is it that the women of the world can't be entertained every once in a while as well???? Just saying....
The performers look quite happy entertaining the passengers, so why should anyone have a problem with this, you see more skin at the pool and the beach.
Good, they deserve a fine! It's bad enough that kids are running up and down the aisles when I fly, now I have to look at near naked women?
How about a pillow and a blanket instead of cheap sexist entertainment? I can get that watching Fox news.

Nice picture. I am so proud of you Kandi and all the other AA females that are doing good for yourself.
Bravo has given my peeps steps to climb. Keep going up.
The Grammy award winning 'housewife' is featured in the magazine's April/May 2013 issue. The cover coincidentally coincides with the premiere of her new Bravo talent based reality show "The Kandi Factory," which aired last night (April 9, 2013).
Fresh off another sizzling season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," Kandi Burruss is gearing up for her new show, "The Kandi Factory" where she will be helping up-and-coming artists break into the music biz.
We're sure that on this new show, much like on RHOA, Kandi will be rocking some stylish 'dos. Hype Hair linked up with Kandi for an exclusive photo shoot and to chat about her new reality show and her fun and varying 'dos.
Congrats to Kandi and her new show!

Jet 16 x 42 Wood Lathe Pro, Model JWL-1642EVS, 1-1/2 HP
It has performed as it should. This replaced a Jet 1236 with a lot less HP motor. So I don't think the loss of power is in the motor or HP, but in the 3 phase converter. I also think this is a wonderful safety feature. With out it, I can see bent tools, broken tool rests, and injuries. I turn open segment vases and hollow forms and this lathe is my dream come true at a very fair price
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Great piece of equipmet
Columbia, MD
I puchased this lathe after giving up on the contantly rising price of the other popular lathe turners flock to. I have not regretted one minute of this decision.
This Jet lathe has done everything I have asked of it. It will stall with too heavy a hand while roughing large bowls but thats it. I have not yet needed to replace the belt.
My 5 year warranty has just expired and the lathe is going strong, the only maintenace I have done is cleaning the ways and underside of the banjo and tailstock with high grit sandpaper and wd40. The wide stance of the legs of this lathe negate the need for sandbags or other ballast. I have turned the smallest of finials to 16 inch bowls with this lathe.
Assembly was striaght forward and done by myself including carrying disassembled parts from my drive down a flight of steps to my basement, and I am not a large man. Cam locks on the tailstock and banjo are second to none, and have not required any adjustment. Quill locks and tool post locks work like the day I unwrapped them. The underbed tool caddy is very handy however the overbed guard is a waste of money and should be discontinued. This lathe runs as smooth, quiet and powerful as the day I bought it. Make the purchase, you will not regret it.

I love this thing, my shop has a very lacking electrical system and this thing doesnt even make the lights flicker like every other power tool I own. Very smooth operation, I love the ease of set up, the included spur center, face plate and live center. Super quiet which is nice if (like me) you make you tube turning videos. Ive had it about a month now, so far so good.

After fighting with a Sears Craftsman lathe the Jet is a breath of fresh air. Easy to set up, powerfull and quiet. Have not tried any large (8" or more) pieces yet but sure it will do fine.It did require me to move my GFI as it is well documented the startup power on this Lathe will trip a GFI.

Let me start with the observation from Hilaire Belloc. In his book The Servile State, Belloc writes that "The control of the production of wealth is the control of human life itself."
I rather doubt that President Obama or any of his inner circle is a student of Hilaire Belloc. But they have demonstrated again and again their intuitive grasp of Belloc's insight. If only, they reason, they can turn over enough of the productive capacity of the country to the government, then (so they think) they will be in a position to eradicate the age-old irrationalities and inequities that have beset our capitalist society from the beginning.
Belloc knew better, and a lot more could be said about the likely results of the Obama administration's ambition to control the production of wealth. For the moment, however, I just want you to bear Belloc's point in mind as you ponder an excellent piece about the Obama administration's plans for health care by N. Gregory Mankiw. I hope you will put your prejudice to one side when you learn that 1) not only is Mankiw is a professor of economics but also he practices that discipline at Harvard and 2) his piece appeared in The New York Times. Notwithstanding Harvard, notwithstanding even The New York Times, "The Pitfalls of the Public Option" piece casts the cool light of sanity on what the Obama administration wishes to do to health care.
What is the public option option? It is one part rhetorical subterfuge combined with three parts government control. Professor Mankiw quotes from a letter President Obama sent to Senators Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts and Max Baucus of Montana: "I strongly believe," Obama wrote, "that Americans should have the choice of a public health insurance option operating alongside private plans. This will give them a better range of choices, make the health care market more competitive, and keep insurance companies honest."
OK. Let's play "What's wrong with this picture?" Let's say we opt for the "public option." What would it mean? If the government got more heavily involved in health care (beyond what it already does with the Veterans Administration, Medicare, and Medicaid), would that actually give Americans "a better range of choices," where by "better" Obama might have meant "more choices," "higher quality choices," or both? What do you think? While you decide what is the best way of expressing the conclusion "no, absolutely not," ask yourself whether an industry that had a "public option," i.e., that was government controlled with the unlimited power of sanction that government control implies: ask yourself, I say, whether that would encourage or discourage competition? Imagine that the government got into the business of garbage removal. How would you feel about setting up shop with your own competing Acme Dispose-All Company? How would you fare against an entity that wrote all the rules and had at its disposal the resources of the public purse? As for the insurance companies, why should we think that the granddaddy of all insurance companies, i.e., the U.S. government, would be more honest when distributing scarce resources than the 1300 or so companies that now compete for your business are?
Professor Mankiw has this to say: "Even if one accepts the president's broader goals of wider access to health care and cost containment" — and who doesn't? — "his economic logic regarding the public option is hard to follow." Professor Mankiw is a generous spirit. By "hard to follow," he really means "completely bogus." He goes on:
Consumer choice and honest competition are indeed the foundation of a successful market system, but they are usually achieved without a public provider. We don't need government-run grocery stores or government-run gas stations to ensure that Americans can buy food and fuel at reasonable prices.
Indeed. And here is the $64,000 — I mean, the $1.85 trillion — question:
An important question about any public provider of health insurance is whether it would have access to taxpayer funds. If not, the public plan would have to stand on its own financially, as private plans do, covering all expenses with premiums from those who signed up for it.
But if such a plan were desirable and feasible, nothing would stop someone from setting it up right now. In essence, a public plan without taxpayer support would be yet another nonprofit company offering health insurance. The fundamental viability of the enterprise does not depend on whether the employees are called "nonprofit administrators" or "civil servants."

Edgy, almost mysterious psychological reading of the erstwhile lovers. Your attention to small details is superb as you wind through the story; overall, the quality of your writing is far beyond that of most fan-fic. This is one hell of a cliffhanger, but I'm still hoping to see a happy ending for Pete and Jim. Are you really going to wrap this up in one chapter? So much has gone on in the previous entries that it needs perhaps a little more to add to the lush quality of the early moments. Again, your ear for voices is uncanny. Keep up the great work!
| Bamboozlepig chapter 4 . 12/2/2012
I love your version of Pete, it's pretty gritty and real, and definitely he's not white knight material. Same with Jim. He's not the perfect pretty boy that everyone thinks he is. Of course you know that flawed characters fascinate the hell out of me because they're infinitely more human and recognizable, therefore easier to understand. I like that both Pete and Jim are having very real problems dealing with their relationship, that it's not cotton-candy, color-within-the-lines perfect.
| Ariane Rivendell chapter 1 . 11/20/2012
Oh sandy, sandy, sh*t-stirring a storm sandy. sandy sandy-darlin'.
I stand...in such awe.
I really do. To think that you - You - who sacrificed critical thinking, compassion and basic human decency to take it upon yourself to carry God's burdens and hang-ups because, Heaven knows, God is such a piss-poor Wuss that He can't deal with it by His lonesome is...well...incredibly sad and arrogant.
How *marvelous* for you to be so Perfect as to be above all humanity, with the God-fearing humbleness of a dictator despot.
That the gay community should be so obligated to justify jacksh*t to you and other like-minded, equally brainwashed sheep, must be so uplifting, so inadequacy-filling, so power-inducing that you don't have to face your own demons. Oh wait, but of course, you have none. You're Perfect. You are on a level with God, to carry his hang-ups for Him (poor, sad, pissed-off, powerless deity that He is).
And to think that you have *anything* to do with any kind of moral or immoral conversation between Georgeshadow and God; to believe that you factor in to *any* gay person's life to that degree must be so...delusional for you. I know if I were God, I would want delusional people to be incredibly rude by involving themselves in things that have jacksh*t to do with them and skew my message of Love and tolerance, too.
From the "West Wing":
"My chief of staff, Leo McGarry, insists on working on the Sabbath.
Exodus 35:2 clearly says he should be put to death. Am I morally
obligated to kill him myself or is it okay to call the police? Here's one that's really important cause we've got a lot of sports fans in this town: touching the skin of a dead pig makes one unclean. Leviticus 11:7. If they promise to wear gloves can the Washington Redskins still play football? Can Notre Dame? Can West Point? Does the whole town really have to be together to stone my brother, John, for planting different crops side by side? Can I burn my mother in a small family gathering for wearing garments made from two different threads?"
sandy-dear, you've been wearing garments made from two different threads, haven't you?
NOW who's immoral?
| CherryCarver chapter 1 . 11/20/2012
Clearly, "sandy" has been taught to hate by a group of empty heads. Such vile words can only come from the hand of someone who is frustrated by his/her sexual inadequacy. Most of the time, these people wind up acting out their repressed urges in a most public and humiliating way. I'm certain that ignominious day will come for "sandy" before very long.
| Sassy Lassie 51 chapter 3 . 11/19/2012
What's immoral is someone coming on here and so publically and rudely condemning another person for their story or lifestyle. No one held a gun to Sandy's head and forced her to read slash, she made the decision to read it on her own and if it upset her, then she should've just closed the story link out instead of berating the author like she did. The Bible tells us "Judge not, lest ye be judged" and Jesus preached love and tolerance, not hatred and bigotry. Sandy, you are entitled to your opinion but your intolerance disgusts me. Instead of spewing off your nasty rhetoric, why not do something kind and caring, like volunteering at a soup kitchen or homeless shelter, or doing something nice for our veterans? After all, it's the vets who fought to guarantee you the right to your narrow-minded opinion, so instead of coming on here and targeting innocent people, why not do something good and decent? And better pray the Jesus forgives you for your sin of bigotry and intolerance.
| Sashi4040 chapter 3 . 11/18/2012
Okay, I have to admit I have not read any of your work just because I haven't really had the time to sit down and read (and I'm actually writing this while fixing supper and helping my daughter with her homework, along with trying to ignore my husband as he's yelling at the football game on tv, multi-tasking at it's best), so I can't say anything about your stories because I haven't read them yet (but I plan to, I'm shooting for Christmas, but my guess is the rate I'm going with having no free time, it'll be Easter, LOL). But Bam contacted me Friday and told me about the nasty review you got, so I did get onto the site to read it and I think that lady was WAY out of line. She broke the cardinal rule of reviewing by making the comments a personal attack on you and using the review to air her own moral agenda. I'm the first to admit that I can get harsh as far as constructive criticism, but I've never made my reviews a personal attack on the author or used the comments to air my moral preferences, and when I do leave concrit, I sign in to do it because I feel that gives the author the chance to talk with me if they have any concerns about what I've said, rather than cowardly hiding behind an anonymous name like Sandy did. Like Bam pointed out, stories do have a back button on them and if Sandy was offended by slash, she should not have read the story to begin with or at least stopped reading it when it started upsetting her, rather than bashing you and telling you that what you've written is immoral and you need to find another fandom because she doesn't like slash. Authors on this site in ANY fandom have the freedom to write what they want, they are not required to cater to individual readers' wants or needs, unless they consent to do so. And expecting someone to either change their work to suit one person's specific moral guidelines or tastes in how the canon characters should be portrayed, or telling them they need to find another realm to write in because one person finds their work offensive, that's not only censorship, but also discrimination. So Georgshadow, you have my full support, too, not to mention my utmost admiration because your response to Sandy's review was PERFECT, everything you said was so right on the mark and you did it so beautifully and eloquently. Pete and Jim would be very proud of you! By the way, I actually like the idea of someone posting some good Adam-12 slash on here, it's a nice addition and gives the fandom variety. And Bam has recommended in the past that I read your work, she says you're a writer of high quality and your stories are always fantastically great reads, so I'm definitely looking forward to checking your work out.
| SukiSugar chapter 3 . 11/17/2012
I'm one of Bamboozlepig's regular readers and I spotted this issue going down and wanted to speak up. I admit I'm not a big fan of slash, but I do agree that you've got alot of talent as a writer and in comparison to some of the slash I've read, your stuff is always very well done. Sandy should not have denounced your work as immoral if it offended her belief system, she should've just avoided the story, especially since it was labeled as slash very noticably in the summary. Readers shouldn't be hassling the writers on here and trying to force them to write to their specific demands. There's a enough variety on this site that if readers are displeased with one story or writer, there's always another one to enjoy reading. Don't let this get to you and stop you from continuing your work, you have far too much talent to let some tight-assed prude knock you down. You've got my support, too.

Apologies that this isn't signed, I'm in mid-break at work and on a laptop computer I borrowed from a coworker, but Kim PM'd me and told me what had happened and I just wanted to drop a quick message to tell you that you have my full support. I think you're an extremely talented writer and an asset to the site, and anyone that wants to argue with that, they can come talk to me. Doesn't matter what you write, no one should be telling you that you have to leave the site because they disagree with your work. As Kim pointed out, that's censorship, plain and simple, and it should not be acceptable on here. So keep your chin up, kid, and don't let this make you stop writing, your talent far outshines anything that I imagine good old Sandy and her kind could come up with.
| The Delirium Threemen chapter 3 . 11/16/2012
WOW, I can't believe someone is going to pull the morality game, especially when the summary has the word 'SLASH' in capital letters. Whether slash is or isn't your cup of tea is irrelevant. This writer shows remarkable talent. Unless there is something in ffnet guidelines that prohibits slash - which I don't recall seeing the it is obvious that the reviewer sandy is out of line with her remarks. There's this word called 'tolerance' and what that means is even if you don't agree with how someone else lives their life or agree with their beliefs you respect that they have a right to live how they choose. OR in this case they respect their right to write.
Keep writing George and stay true to yourself as a person and in your writing.
| Bamboozlepig chapter 3 . 11/16/2012
To the reviewer named Sandy:
Oh sweetie, did you decide on your own little adorable self to wrest away that title of Queen Of The Site And Puritanical Morality Monitor from the other grabby little self-appointed site nannies? Be forewarned that pretty gold crown with all the twinkly jewels in it is nothing more than fool's gold and glass, and in olden days, Queens were often beheaded when they overstepped their ruling authority. And surely you don't wish to see your darling little head mounted on a pike pole now, do you? Pike poles are SO OUT this season, you know. But hey, what better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than to give the site a good dose of Puritanism from a stuffed turkey, eh?
I'm INSANELY curious too...pray tell me what you were doing reading a slash story when you clearly find such content offensive? Oh wait, I know, you just wanted a soapbox for your preachy forum about how homosexuality is immoral, but correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it also immoral to try to impose one's personal standards and belief system on another person without their consent? That smacks of dictatorship to me and I'm pretty sure that America is still a democracy, or at least it was as of five seconds ago.
And I can guarantee you that you can go into ANY fandom on here, even those for shows that are older than Adam-12, and you will find slash. It isn't the "immoral of today's generation" like you claim, it's writers exercising their creativity and imagination, and sharing with us their version of the canon characters as seen through their eyes, and as a fellow writer, I wholeheartedly applaud and fully support their endeavors. No one on here should be expected to leave a fandom or conform their work to one person's specific set of rigid ideals, as that's censorship at it's very worst and should NEVER be tolerated.
For me the biggest and most disgusting insult was that you hid behind an anonymous name to carry out your vile attack, and that you used that name to deride, denigrate, and disrespect someone that I consider a very dear friend. Your comments were not in any way constructive criticism, they were narrowminded and bigoted and they were designed to hurt an innocent person that you don't even know, yet you immediately hated because he writes slash. So are you also going to go after the other writers on here that don't conform to your priggish ideals of how the canon characters should be written, too? There are writers who have Pete getting married and starting a family, or what about those that have Pete engaging in sexual relations before he is married...or how about my work, I've been criticized by your like-minded bretheren over how my stories don't fit someone's personal standard, so are you going to come after me, too? Hey, bring it on, I've dealt with hysterical little Puritanical ninnies like you in the past and you don't scare me in the least, I'm still very much on this site, as you can see.
The point is, you have NO RIGHT to come on here and judge and condemn ANYONE, telling them that they need to find another fandom to write in, simply because they've written something you disapprove of. You cannot impede someone's freedom of expression because it upsets your moral code. Quite frankly, Pete and Jim would be utterly appalled at your comments because on the show, they were never portrayed as judging and condemning anyone because of their race or their sexual orientation. There's such a thing on here as the back button and I suggest you figure out how to use it...or better yet, like I've told all the other little moralistic preachers in the past, you are definitely free to create your own ideal fanfic version of Pete and Jim if you are not pleased with the offerings already on here.
| Georgshadow chapter 3 . 11/15/2012
To "sandy" who left me such a lovely review: Thank you for reminding me that there are still people like you in 2012, who find even the mention of homosexuality to be IMMORAL. Sometimes I forget that people find the lifestyle to be such an unpardonable sin, as it's only been about six months since the last time I was confronted by a stranger about being gay. That person at least had the decency to berate me in my workplace however, while you've chosen to hide under the shroud of anonymity. You coward—you KNOW that your intolerance is wrong and you aren't man (or woman) enough to show your face.
How dare you come around here and tell me to write fanfiction for a different show because you find my lifestyle to be immoral. I don't chose to write about characters in mature, consenting gay relationships just because I delight in corrupting the establishment. Consider also the television show you consider to be such a beacon of morality. Perhaps Jack Webb was the squeaky-cleanest producer in Hollywood, but some of the episodes might have also been considered "immoral" for their time, too. Pete Malloy and Jim Reed were compassionate policemen who treated everyone—victims and criminals alike—equally and fairly. They did not discriminate based on other characters' gender, age, or race, and it goes without question that if the show had been filmed today, sexual orientation wouldn't be a problem, either. That is what makes those characters such "respected and upstanding" role models, as you put it. To be respected, you have to show a little bit of respect, too.
You can go ahead and take your bigoted, ignorant, intolerant ideas and bother somebody else.

Any suggestions?

my Montana political bear sense is tingling….something it has not done since Max Baucus's corruption and the Democratic leadership mislead us in 2006 and failed to do any of the things they promised when Jon Tester was elected to the senate. but, finally we have a real choice this year…..
Amanda Curtis is the real deal. Forthright. Not afraid to speak her mind. An actual leader. Something Montana politics was once known for with the likes of Mike Mansfield, Lee Metcalf, and Pat Williams standing up for they believe in- acting like the real people they were and courageously representing the people of Montana, regardless of the politics and the cowardly advice of "handlers"
of course, eventually, as Amanda's campaign gains steam and convinces the vipers in party politics to slither out from beneath their rocks to either attack her or, even more dangerous, offer to support her in exchange for compromise, we the voters in Montana are now in the lucky position of supporting someone like yourself- someone who is sick and tired of the failure of party politics dominating every issue in America to the detriment of the country and the people who have been waiting for someone who has the character and independence to fight the vipers who wish to destroy her.
If you are tired of party politics and corporations pulling the strings of wooden puppets who purport to represent us in Washington DC, support Amanda Curtis for Montana's Senator.
Give what you can. DO what you can. opportunities to support a real person who wants to represent us do not come around that often.
Last night, Bud Robert couldn't decide if this was a trip to cure something or just a trip to end everything. This morning, it doesn't matter because his canvas backpack is packed, and the first sight of the Trailhead entices. He carries two weeks worth of provisions, even remembering to pack the small campfire espresso maker Ruth had always used and a pound of the good coffee ground fine, enough to last at least a month. This is it. The old truck is parked next to the horse corral where Howard and Gordon can pick it up if he doesn't make it out before the snow flies. They are sworn to secrecy and they will tell no one.
He tightens the waist belt and shifts the sixty five pounds on his back until his shoulders move freely, snaps his chest strap tight and then grabs his hiking staff. Bud Robert breaks the law by walking past the USFS registration box, ignoring the required forms to fill out, as he starts up the trail. His bad right knee feels surprisingly strong. He knows that later the weight will bring pain and that he will soon regret everything he has packed, just like he always does on any extended solo Wilderness trek, But the adrenaline of entering a wild place already feels therapeutic. Leaving the horses behind was not easy. Bud Robert wants it to be simple and free of responsibility, whether it is the end or just another trip that he hopes will bring an answer to some question he is still too ignorant to ask..
The difference today….. as he marvels at the green canopy of subalpine firs crowding both sides of the trail, all his senses sharp in a lush late june landscape still smelling of recent rain, which itself is a mere five mile preamble to the deeply prehistoric breathtaking view at the notch in the East Fork Trail where it comes out on the Continental Divide, still covered in six feet of snow….. is that no one will be terribly worried about his whereabouts regardless of what happens
Bud Robert smiles as he remembers Ruth's favorite saying when he became too worked up about things on the farm; "The single greatest impediment to happiness is taking yourself too seriously."
EXCERPT from MERCY
W.C. Fleischman
Somewhere in Oregon there is a corner of an office, a closet or attic space where dozens of cardboard tubes are hidden away. Each tube contains several topographical maps, many with scrawled notes about landscapes that he visited. Most of these landscapes were Roadless Areas in National Forests. On most of these maps are drawn boundaries; lines which hope to protect something precious.
Life has boundaries for all of us. Some are limited by income, others by physical impairments, mental limitations, or simply circumstances. Wilderness must be protected within boundaries because deep inside the DNA structure of all humans there is a primitive desire to greedily consume everything which is balanced by an equally primitive need to know that there are still places on maps where the disease of civilization has not yet infected and sickened the land. He understood this.
Wilderness advocates are an odd lot. We gather together reluctantly to protect the lands we love. In 1975, when a group in Bend first formed to protect Roadless Areas of the Deschutes National Forest, there was a slide show and a lecture scheduled in an auditorium on the campus of Central Oregon Community College. As attendees filtered into the room, most seated themselves as far from others as the space allowed, resulting in an audience that resembled an array of free radicals in a biochemistry graph.
If there can be such a thing as a camaraderie of solitary individuals, this room represented exactly that. Wilderness advocates value our isolation not because we crave loneliness but because we require solitude as a respite from the world of civilized chaos that swirls around us and threatens to devour peace of mind. A love of solitude and a desire to be free from the constraints of society form the basis of a desire to protect wild lands. But few individuals stay true to this cause their entire lives, devoting themselves to it, poring over maps for forty years with a cigarette and a cup of coffee while Red Garland's Country Little Shack plays in the background.
Tim Lillebo loved those maps. He loved a good blues tune. He loved good coffee and he loved rolling a cigarette while his eyes followed the well spaced loops in a contour line that represented a seep or a bog where elk could wallow in mud and escape biting deer flies in the middle of summer in a remote canyon near Glacier peak. He loved to follow the tight contours of ridgelines where perhaps the last lone wolverine in Oregon was spotted near Monument Rock. He loved to stand in a forest of old ponderosa pines; he called them pumpkin pines, and gaze into the rich yellow and orange hues of their puzzled barks. He loved wild land enough to devote his entire adult life to it, with little monetary reward. If good coffee and blues and a pouch of roll your own could be acquired, Tim was happy. Saving and protecting wild land kept his soul fed. And Oregon will forever benefit from his efforts.
Over the past 40 years most of us wandered away from the cause, nipping at the edges in our respective habitats by signing a petition here, writing a letter to congress there. We had families to raise, careers to chase, dreams to follow. But Tim stayed at it, working every day to draw some protective boundaries around land that is always threatened. One man's passing does not stop a cause as deeply rooted in the human psyche as Wilderness advocacy, but it certainly sent a tremor wave throughout this odd camaraderie of solitary souls who still seek the solitude of wild places.
Somewhere, in an office or a closet or an attic are dozens of cardboard tubes of topographical maps which should be protected so that future generations can unroll them and study the work of one man who stood for something greater in a world that seems to only reward wealth and power. We should teach those after us to follow those contour lines. Because land will endure long after human effort passes away.
twenty years ago, i remember looking out our 2nd story bedroom window at dawn. i could see the local newspaper boy, pedalling his bike down each end of the street, delivering freshly printed news at virtually every step.
ten years ago, i watched as a car drove down Edith Street stopping only three or four times to deliver the paper.
two years ago, i watched the car drive the entire length of our street and stop at our house only.
today, no newspaper showed up at all. which didn't even bother me.
the corporate morons who own this paper have stripped it of all dignity and worth in October by laying off local editors and using "paginators" in Indiana to produce our news. i have not read it since then. i do not lament the painful death throes that constitute the inevitable demise of our local paper.
rather, due to this example of short-sighted corporate monkey brained remote ignorance of Missoulians in general, i lament the loss of any hope that our newspaper will ever again regain any relevance to younger people who now demand genuine non filtered information easily obtainable online. and this leads me inevitably to mourn the loss of unfettered local reporting and editorship control in our daily local newspapers in general.
and so it goes….
Bud Robert looked at the meadow across the lake. Moose were pulling weeds from the inlet channel of Brushy Fork Lake and the falling drops of water from their chewing could be heard a half mile away in the still dawn air. A loon began to siren to it's mate on Bill's lake, just a mile away. Bud Robert regretted the death of Tim. That Tim would miss this today seemed a crime. He began to write something in his head.
Note to ACLU:
RE: Original Sin
The grievous punishment meted out to the human race for the crime of "taking a bite out of an apple" is disproportionately harsh. The sentence of a lifetime of hard labor followed immediately by a slow and painful death, is discriminatory and unconstitutional and the threat of going to Hell if we don't follow strict rules constitutes unreasonable and inhumane treatment.
The plaintiff seeks a return to plaintiff's original condition and demands redress in the following:
The Human Race
P/S Since paradise is already Heaven, there is no need to go anywhere else.
by problembear…..
There is a great opinion piece in the Missoula Independent today….
We know there is honor among thieves. This is a challenge to see if there is honor among judges. The embarrassing district judge Todd Baugh remains seated and despite the wrath of the public, his ability to preside over further cases continues and his conduct has been mostly met with silence from our courts. Despite a massive judicial blunder which is costing the state of Montana millions he continues to draw a salary of $117,600.00 from taxpayers. His conduct regarding the rape case of a 14 year old girl who subsequently committed suicide has been reprehensible. his legal knowledge regarding rape sentencing guidelines has been shown to be so lacking that he should be immediately removed from the bench before he can cause more mayhem and a judicial panel should be convened to conduct an investigation into his competence.
Judge Baugh's breathtaking ignorance and colossal insensitivity toward the victim on his bench has attracted national coverage and his continued employment continues to heap humiliation on the state of Montana. Waiting will only supporate this wound further and reflect poorly on the judicial branch of this state. If honor still resides in our courts and if serving the law means anything to our court system, Judge Baugh's removal should be the highest priority of all 45 district judges of Montana.
If there is indeed honor among judges, we shouldn't need to spend another minute on this. I am thinking that one of Judge Baugh's peers could simply take him for a long walk and suggest he resign and save Montana further embarrassment.
