Face-Off With a Deadly Predator

Wow! - Anne Bouey
Not really a face-off as much as a welcoming. but cool! - Brian Johns
Yeah, I'm not really sure why they named the video that. That is what he expected, not what he got. - Rachel Lea Fox
Derrick
At Disneyland w/ @mellemusic and @misterjt. Missing @missmartini. Oh Mickey, you so fine...
Have fun! - RAPatton from iPhone
Enjoy! - Anne Bouey
Derrick
So (Americans), what are your Thanksgiving day plans? Traveling? People coming to visit? Are you looking forward to the holiday?
thanksgiving-plate-entert1106-de1.jpg
Probably traveling to family, just not sure which side yet. And I do look forward to being with family. It's usually fairly low-key. I miss seeing my family. - Sarah June
Most of the kids are coming home. In-laws are coming. Always interesting! Should be good. - Anne Bouey
not sure what I am doing .....thinking of making a duck - VAL D.
dinner with the fam (they're all here in town). low-key and I like it that way. - holly
I'm in charge of all of the food. Multiple relatives, friends of the family. Minimal travel for me and the kittehs. - Katy S
A duck sounds good Val. - Sarah June
Probably heading to one of my bros - Rodfather
hanging at home, maybe making dinner for a friend. Anyone else in Tucson orphaned for the holiday? :) (this all assumes that recovery from dental stuff next Thursday goes well and I'm eating solid food by Thanksgiving). - ÉllbeeÇee
I'm having low-key stuff with my parents - my mom has surgery on that Monday, and if all goes to plan she'll be home that day. If not, we'll hang out with her up in her room and do dinner another night. She has mentioned at least three times she is happy she isn't the one cooking this year :) - Jennifer Dittrich
I'll be smoking a turkey and all that other stuff. Then visiting the MIL, then the annual Trans-giving/birthday party at friend's house. - Anika
I'm filling out my time off request as we speak, seeing as one of my bosses is taking off the entire week. I'll probably do something for some of my local orphaned students (especially the international students who we have to inform what Thanksgiving is) and not much else. - Derrick
Derrick, you can come hang out with us in Altadena if you're not doing anything later that evening. That's usually fun. - Anika
Altadena is my old stomping ground! I lived there when I was in school. We'll see how things shape up. Thanks for the invite. :) - Derrick
Going to my parents' house. It's not a big deal for us since we have a small family. And since I don't eat turkey, the meal isn't really anything special for me (yay, green beans and a salad). - Rochelle
spending the day with the family i spent the day with last year, only this year my friend, their wife and mother, is dead. so it's bittersweet. last year's thanksgiving was the last good time I spent with her. the closer we get to the holidays the harder it is, on them especially of course. ack! sorry to be a downer. - Sarah is Novembery
Going to San Antonio to Joel's parents house. Cardeen is flying in. - Michelle Martinez
going home to my parents. it's low-key and and on the small side, for us. which means 15-20 people and tons of food after about half the family does the turkey trot. - Katie
Spending it alone again. I'm moving back to LA in early Dec and I don't have enough $ for it to make sense for me to jet down there just for T-giving. I wish Trader Joe's still carried Cantella's turkey sausage with cranberries because that's a really simple way to get those flavors. Not sure what I'll make to celebrate yet. I should probably focus on actually giving thanks. - Spidra Webster
Making cornish game hens for a few of my orphan friends in the area and my sister. It'll be small, but festive. Then on Saturday, all of my friends in the area are gathering for a second Thanksgiving, with turkey and tri-tip on the menu. YUM. - Cassandra
We (the SO and I) are having our usual guests (a couple & their 10yr old daughter) plus possibly two more. We are getting our usual fried turkey from Popeye's, and making the fixings. Since we are having more I get to make a ham too. (I am thinking Alton Brown's Dr. Pepper ham) It's a very laid back day, we usually get a RPG going, or watch movies. I always look forward to it. - aden (yeah you heard me)
Flying up to Oakland to visit family in Walnut Creek/Alamo area. Might do the city for my birthday that weekend. Then driving home Sunday - Katie: Witch Of The West
Driving to exotic Dayton - RAPatton
I'll be away until Thanksgiving. Then, Mr and kids at home for traditional dinner. Oldest daughter has to work that night at Old Navy. When did THAT happen? - R1CC1
I'll be with my parents for Thanksgiving. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Traveling, but only a few hours up the road to Fort Worth. Spend a few days with my in-laws, who are fantastically good company. Big meal on the day itself at my brother in-law's place. He's a champion at doing the turkey in peanut oil. - Patrick Jordan
Traveling to visit my in-laws. I'm still trying to decide what I should cook. I'm settled on mac-n-cheese, oatmeal-coconut pie, and some kind of cake. Not sure what else. Maybe a standing rib roast? (Probably not. They only eat roast beef well done. :( - Ha3rvey (obviously wrong)
Tell me more about this oatmeal coconut pie, harv. - Derrick
D, I got the recipe from a cannister of Kroger store brand oatmeal. The flavor reminds me of a pecan pie (without the pecans). IIRC, it's got oatmeal, coconut, corn syrup, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, and salt. It's surprisingly good. I usually substitute maple syrup for most of the corn syrup so that it won't be cloyingly sweet. If I remember when I get home tonight, I'll send it to you. - Ha3rvey (obviously wrong)
Oatmeal-coconut pie sounds unusual but good. - Spidra Webster
Popeye's makes a fried turkey for T-giving? *perks ears up* - Spidra Webster
Spidra, "unusual" is a very good word for it. Everyone who has tried it liked it. I'm trying to remember if it has vanilla in it. I think every good dessert has vanilla. - Ha3rvey (obviously wrong)
Sounds good. Maybe I'll bust one out for the orphans, Harvey. And yes, Spidra. I think they call it a "cajun" fried turkey, but it's fully cooked. I should order one in case people stop by through the weekend. The picture here is horrible (hint hint, Popeye's, I freelance), but here's a link: http://popeyes.com/turkey.php - Derrick
Our plans are up in the air right now. Normally, my wife's parents would come to see us but my FIL is being prepped to have his lung removed after a lung cancer diagnosis. We might go to them, but only if her mom doesn't think having company will be too stressful. I know it's not a cheerful answer, but that's life right now. - Alan Simpson
ThxGiving with the Fam, Wife, Kiddo(s) and possibly one of the Ex-wives. - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
I will hopefully be able to get to San Diego for the afternoon..pig out on Thanksgiving Filipino style celebration - Anna Lynn M.
Hosting my annual orphan Thanksgiving for all my friends who either have no family, live too far or who just don't hang with their family. - Leslie Poston
Dr. Pepper ham? That sounds good. And I'm impressed with all of you who host a day for people without somewhere else to go. That's so nice! - Sarah June
No holiday for me, so no travel and no family. Still, might try cooking a turkey on the grill this year. - Steven Perez
I'm not sure. Often we do Thanksgiving with Ben's family and I look forward to it a lot. This year (as with the last two) they are trying to combine our families, so we'll see. I love my family but the dynamic for Thanksgiving has never been quite right with us. I am also thinking of having some people over that weekend for post-Thanksgiving meals so that I get to play hostess. - joey
Going to my parents house and helping my mother cook. Maybe bring some wine with me. I don't think I have the kids this year, so I am glad to have my family with me cause I usually get sad. - Shevonne
Parents, Parents-in-Law, Sister, Aunt-in-Law descend upon us ... FOR A WEEK! Woohoo! (luckily everyone really likes everyone else and we all get along well) (and I have enough comp time that I'll have the week off!) (woo again!) - Aaron the Librarian
Having a meal of some sort with friends. I'd love to go home, but it's too far to travel for too short a time. - laura x
We had our big holiday meal (so far I've cooked 3 turkeys), we'll be joining my mom and stepfather. - Heather Solos
Doing the family dinner tradition, but then Mom and I are escaping for a few days after. Booked a few day trip to Amish country...(this should be interesting). Heading to Lancaster PA from NJ. Getting away from our busy lives and just bringing it down to farm markets, craft shows, and basically getting away...I'm very excited about it actually...Love spending time, One on One with my Mom. - Bill Heslin
My ex is swiping my kid again (it's supposed to be my year with her) so I'm gonna be at home, watching the cowboys play, eating my turkey sandwich, doing shots of cranberry sauce and gravy, crying into my Stella Artois beverage of choice. Woo to the mudderfuggin' Hoo! - Morgan Haley
Wanna go to Amish country and eat Shoo fly pie Morgan?: LOL - Bill Heslin
OH and left out...gonna visit some breweries while there also :) - Bill Heslin
We're going to New Orleans. Can't wait! - Trish R
I have unpaid furlough day Wednesday, holiday Thursday and Friday, and then the weekend off. I don't even like turkey. I hope to hang out with my grownup kids at some point. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
turkey day LA meetup? - Morgan Haley
We head up north to Santa Barbara and Pismo Beach to get away from family, on Thanksgiving and the week following, to charge up the batteries for Christmas, family, shopping, cooking, etc. ;) - Bonnie Foster
headng to Charleston SC ... for a vaca ,, and having Thanksgiving in the Isle of Palm ... - johnpiercy
Lunchtime TG meal with Dave's family, after which I will be hauling arse to cook for TG dinner at my house. Luckily grilling a turkey only takes a few hours... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
3 friends and I will spend time at a local rescue mission serving meals. Give back in small ways. - Steve
Passing out meals to those in need. +1 to Steve. - Joe
SIL and fam are coming - I think - they'll have been here for the funeral so I hope they're coming back as planned. And my brother and his wife - my other SIL - will come for their second meal of the day, along with my father. Daughter Sarah, age 19, will be in charge of the kitchen; I'll be sous-chef. Menu will be more contemporary than we could have had in previous years, I'll bet. - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF from iPhone
The parents are still overseas so it will be Thanksgiving (and Christmas) with the in-laws this year. Mother-in-law is cooking this time (as opposed to the last two years where we just went out to eat). She can throw down in the kitchen so it should be good. I miss my Mom's Thanksgiving meals though. - Got Love For DB™?
Turkey and all of the fixens' at our house. My parents and the in laws are coming over. - Jeff P. Henderson
Your parents and in-laws intermingle and your house doesn't explode? Amazing. - Got Love For DB™?
Thanksgiving, Denmark-style again this year, though we're doing it the weekend before since there is no Thanksgiving here. Also using it to celebrate my darling husband's 30th year gracing the earth. Seems feeding people good food, complete with lots of hygge, helps break down boundaries in any country. It may not be noble, but it's going to be fun. :D - Bette Cooper
Before Thanksgiving I've got seven togas to sew, to cater the party they are for (60 people), and try to squeeze in a birthday. I havent even considered Thanksgiving...I've got time, right? - Shannon
We don't celebrate :) - ★ Soner Gönül
earlier it was Scoble who dominated my feed now it's you Derrick, and guess what last night you were in my dream and i said something funny to you and you held your hand for high five :) (i was viewing webcam of my friend the other night and we wrote something (an emoticon ) together and he held out his hand for high five) dreams are an amalgam and colors spread as if an art piece is under process - ffcode

Turtles Are Casualties of Warming in Costa Rica - NYTimes.com
Turtles Are Casualties of Warming in Costa Rica - NYTimes.com
"Even before scientists found temperatures creeping upward over the past decade, sea turtles were threatened by beach development, drift net fishing and Costa Ricans’ penchant for eating turtle eggs, considered a delicacy here. But climate change may deal the fatal blow to an animal that has dwelled in the Pacific for 150 million years. Sea turtles are sensitive to numerous effects of warming. They feed on reefs, which are dying in hotter, more acidic seas. They lay eggs on beaches that are being inundated by rising seas and more violent storm surges. More uniquely, their gender is determined not by genes but by the egg’s temperature during development. Small rises in beach temperatures can result in all-female populations, obviously problematic for survival." - Anne Bouey from Bookmarklet

Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
I accidentally broadcasted on the wrong Ustream channel today. No wonder ppl were saying "where were you?" and me the same of them. Doh!!
That would explain the oddly low attendance. I'm an idiot. LOL - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Last time attendance was that low was the day of the "balloon boy" drama. I didn't know anything about it until that night. I thought maybe today was another big news day about which I was once again oblivious. Nope--just me being oblivious. HA! - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
...that explains the channel's "wall paper" that I didn't remember selecting.... uuugh.... - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
So that's what happened ! - Mo Kargas
Well, I enjoyed it! - Anne Bouey
Oh man -- Mo--you stopped-by? Man--I'm bummed... I'm even more bummed knowing I did something so dumb than when when I thought "I must really really be sucking today..." - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Thank you Anne. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Yeah, ahh well, I'll be there for the next one :) - Mo Kargas
I went there and you weren't there so yeah.... - Spidra Webster
So then--I figure, I don't want this to happen again. So I deleted all but the Main/ Primary channel that I should have used in the 1st place. Then realized--I permanently deleted todays video...I have to laugh at my own ineptitude...ROFL!! - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Anne, I'll have to count on you to describe it to everyone else.... - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Since the there is no longer any evidence--I'll go ahead describe it as the most incredible playing I've ever done in my life. *facepalm* - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
I knew something was up! - Michael Fidler
I wouldn't know if it was the MOST incredible playing you've ever done, but it was awesome! - Anne Bouey
It definitely wasn't the most incredible playing I've done--I'm just drumming-up some jive mythology re: a lost recording. Feeling pretty silly... Thank you though. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Ah well, you know how it is. We'll look for you next week, same utime, same uchannel. You'll have to fit twice as much music in though lol! - Neil Alexander

Rachel Lea Fox
I Love You Uncle Rick!!! You are a true hero!!! You gave up so much for the country you loved and lost so much of your life to agent orange, even after you had returned home. Thank you for being you!! You were such an amazing man!!!! Happy Veterans Day Everyone! Please remember someone special!
Rick.jpg
I know somehow he hears me! - Rachel Lea Fox from iPhone
I'm sorry I never met him. - Kevin Fox
Kevin, he would have liked you. He was fun and goofy and he dotted on his "kids" since he couldn't have any of his own. He just wanted to fill his life with anything fun that he could. - Rachel Lea Fox
What was his story, if you don't mind sharing? - Jim Norris
Jim, I don't know a lot of the war part of the story as I was young during that and always felt odd bringing up sad stuff as he tried so hard to be happy. I know he was in the Vietnam war and during combat was exposed to Agent Orange. It didn't kill him but it got strongly in his system. I think he was discharged because of this but again I am not sure. I should really ask my Dad more... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
He was married to a woman named Jeanie. I remember her distinctly because she could talk like Donald Duck. I believe they were sweethearts before the war and married soon after he came home. They didn't understand yet about the effects of agent orange and he wasn't having symptoms right away, but they found out after a while. My uncle Rick loved children as did Aunt Jeanie. But agent... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
He still seemed mostly healthy for many years, though I know he had to visit the veterans hospital on a regular basis. He never remarried or seemed to have a close relationship. I think he was afraid that he again wouldn't be able to give someone what they needed. Jeanie did and had 2 kids, I know he visited once or twice but it was hard on him and her. He had several nieces and nephews... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
He lived in Georgia while I lived outside Rochester NY so I didn't get to see him often, but he very frequently was visiting us and family, so I saw him 2 or 3 times a year. But as time went on he was slowing down. My parents didn't mention it much but I heard them talking more about the veterans hospital and I know he was going a lot more. I remember him not looking as well during his... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
Unlike someone who has sclerosis of the liver caused my drinking (my uncle didn't drink) he had no chance. My Grandfather also died of sclerosis of the liver. At one point they repaired his liver and gave him a few more years, but he had to stop drinking or it wouldn't matter. My grandfather who owned a bar and knew no other way of life couldn't do it. My uncle Rick didn't have this... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
Facts about soldiers in the Vietnam war: More than 3 million Americans served in Vietnam. By war's end, 58,193 soldiers were killed, more than 150,000 were wounded, and at least 21,000 were permanently disabled.[191] Approximately 830,000 Vietnam veterans suffered symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder. - Rachel Lea Fox
The thing I could never wrap my head around, I asked my dad about it when Uncle Rick died and I still to this day am amazed by it. My uncle Rick didn't have a bitter bone in his body. I just couldn't understand why he wasn't more mad about everything. I know he must have had some way that he dealt with all of this, but even to his closest friends he said that he had a short time of... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
Rachel, thanks so much for sharing his tragic story. - Stephen Mack
Rachel, what a wonderful person to have had in your life. - Anne Bouey
Anne, I am very lucky to have had him in my life. And I strongly believe that we all need to educate ourselves more about the Vietnam war and all of our wars (myself included - I'm not always as good at this as I should be). Brushing it under the rug doesn't help us learn from our accomplishments or mistakes. And while I may not support a particular war, I will always support every soldier and be grateful for the sacrifices that they make for us all. - Rachel Lea Fox
Thank you for his story, Rachel. Keep his spirit alive forever. XOXOX - rowlikeagirl
Rachel, I visited Vietnam in 2006 and had the most amazing and surreal experiences there. I met many wonderful south Vietnamese who were very grateful for US help during the war and who still have a very strong feeling against the communist government. I even met one man who trained with the USAF here at Travis and who tried to escape three times but was captured and jailed for many... more... - Anne Bouey
Sounds like an amazing trip. I have seen some of the most beautiful photos of South Vietnam. I didn't live it so I can't say much to cause, but at least from my prospective in the Vietnam war, my problems aren't an issue of there not being a need to go in (I know some had issue with that) my problems have more to do with tactics used in North Vietnam and also the government and public... more... - Rachel Lea Fox
It was amazing; I would highly recommend it! - Anne Bouey

UNICEF sounds alarm over malnutrition of kids - http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin...
UNICEF sounds alarm over malnutrition of kids
"Nearly 200 million children in poor countries have stunted growth because of insufficient nutrition, according to a new report published by UNICEF Wednesday before a three-day international summit on the problem of world hunger. The head of a U.N. food agency called on the world to join him in a day of fasting ahead of the summit to highlight the plight of 1 billion hungry people. Jacques Diouf, director-general of the Food and Agriculture Organization, said he hoped the fast would encourage action by world leaders who will take part in the meeting at his agency's headquarters starting Monday. The U.N. Children's Fund published a report saying that nearly 200 million children under 5 in poor countries were stunted by a lack of nutrients in their food. More than 90 percent of those children live in Africa and Asia, and more than a third of all deaths in that age group are linked to undernutrition, according to UNICEF." - Anne Bouey from Bookmarklet

League shipwrecks Captain Morgan campaign - NFL - Yahoo! Sports - http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl...
League shipwrecks Captain Morgan campaign - NFL - Yahoo! Sports
"During the third quarter of Dallas’ 20-16 win, Eagles tight end Brent Celek(notes) caught an 11-yard touchdown pass from Donovan McNabb(notes), then appeared to purposefully back up and align himself in front of television cameras. Putting his hands on his hips, Celek raised his right leg, mimicking a pose similar to the pirate on Captain Morgan’s label." - Jessie from Bookmarklet
"As far as anyone knows, it’s the first time we’ve seen that type of guerilla-style advertising campaign in an NFL end zone. And if the league has its way, it will be the last, too. The “Captain Morgan” was effectively banned this week after the league learned of a wider campaign meant to get players to repeatedly strike the pose during NFL games." - Jessie
Wow, anything to advertise. - Anne Bouey
I wonder how many viewers realized that's what he was doing. I know I didn't connect it to Captain Morgan. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
yeah, i didn't recognize it as captain morgan, either. - Jessie
