Do you think there's an age at which one is too old to have a crush on someone?
If so, I've "got the hots" for someone on my Dragon Boating team :) - Brent Schaus from FFHound!
Not yet. - Greg GuitarBuster

Steele Lawman
With the Assessment Committee, reading departmental assessment reports. And, like, assessing them. Who assesses the assessors' assessors?
As Catherine likes to say, it's turtles all the way down. - Steele Lawman
The Oversight Committee, I assume. - Meg V. Meg
C came back from some AAC&U thing all in a tizzy because one of the regional accreditors (Western States) has a thing where your college has to assess its assessment plan. I think that rates an omgwtfbbq, wouldn't you say? - Catherine Pellegrino
I believe the Committee on Committees appoints someone from the Department of Redundancy Department to oversee such assessments. - laura x
Ah, is that the new name for the Ministry of General Interference? I thought they outsourced it to Pearson. - barbara fister
*snort* - maʀtha
You know, I gotta admit, I think assessing the assessment plan is the right number of turtles, at least here. At our college, it's very difficult to get ONE plan for anything. What we have is more of a call from the dean's office to the individual academic departments to assess student learning as she is done in their own departments--setting goals, learning outcomes, coming up with... more... - Steele Lawman
My brain refuses to even read this thread. - Deborah Fitchett
We just went through our accreditation visit. I chaired the assessment of assessment committee last time around and we squeaked by. This time, they were less zealous about the "we're going to assess whether you have a sufficiently developed culture of assessment" thing. - barbara fister
Ah, see, we *didn't* squeak by last time. - Steele Lawman

I've been in wall-to-wall meetings since Monday morning. Probably why I went straight to bed yesterday after work. Gonna try to stay awake long enough to make it to the trail today. If the temps don't top 100 degrees again, that is.

I had the nicest dream last night. :) - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
glad to hear that Mr. B hope it lasts all day... - VALZ/TEAM TRAVIS
Hey, Val. :) - Steven Perez
WAS I NAKED? - MoTO #TeamMonique
Barry! You? Not completely. The three young women who were hanging off you? Very possibly. :) - Steven Perez

Went to bed at 8pm last night after the husband made me a lovely chicken caesar salad dinner. Slept straight til 630am. I feel wonderfully human again; almost forgot what this was like. Enjoying it immensely :)

I think Karina would be happier a good 35% more of the time if she could just stop dropping her pacifier.
I think they do that sometimes just to get attention. Waif used it like a remote control. - MoTO #TeamMonique
Always make sure you have at least 3 of those things at all times. One more than one occasion, Lexy dropped hers out in public somewhere, and we didn't notice until she started screaming about it later (after we'd left that particular area). The little clips that clip them on their clothes are helpful, but not infallible. - DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
Yeah, we only had two (one of which is reserved for bedtime use without a cord), and forgot the other one once when we left in the car. We went back for it. And then we bought more, so now I'm making sure there's always spares in the diaper bag. - Jandy
Barry's right. Audrey used to do that and Rochelle would call it The Gravity Game. 'Nope! We're not playing The Gravity Game!' - Akiva
Akiva - with Lexy (and many of the other young'uns I've seen), the gravity game was more about throwing cups and/or toys on the floor. The pacifier was usually more "I'm temporarily done with this, so I'll spit it out" - DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
"But then I want it back in 1.7 seconds." - Jandy from iPhone
Well, yeah, obviously, Jandy. :) But with the toys it was always "I'm going to throw this on the floor and watch it all the way down; then scream until Mommy or Daddy picks it up." It's a subtle difference, but, with Lexy at least, it was there. - DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
There's always the "velcro solution." (Hey, it's far referable to duct tape!) - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ

Apparently TEDx wants to see other people, but we can still be friends.
So you've got a TEDx ex now. - Stephen le Francoeur
TEDx's loss. - MoTO #TeamMonique
^^^ this. - Catherine Pellegrino
Start up xTEDx. I'm sure no trademark infringement lawsuit will happen. - Yo Joe. No, go slow.
Then I could give a TED talk on being sued by TED! - lris

Can anyone name a browser in which this site actually looks good? I have tried Firefox, IE, Chrome, Opera, and they all look like this screenshot. What poor out of work "web designer" suckered the State of NJ into letting them do this to their site? http://www.wnjpin.net/
www_wnjpin_net.png
I am beyond amused. :-D - April Russo
I clicked the link in Chrome and it doesn't look like your screenshot. It looks normal. - Eric - seven eleven
Looks normal in my Firefox. v20.0.1 - Yo Joe. No, go slow.
Looks fine in my IE10 as well. Hmmm - Eric - seven eleven
I got it to look like the screenshot on first load on Firefox (22.0). Switched on Firebug to debug the net traffic and see if the stylesheet wasn't loading and, on refresh, everything kicked in normally. - Mark H
I'm using Chrome and it looks like the sccreenshot. - Anika
I had some issues recently with a site on our corporate intranet. After speaking to the designers it turned out the site had been designed for IE7, in use at the parent company site. A lot of pages looked broken to those of us using IE8. Once the designer added the necessary for IE8 it worked. - Nick B.
There are several style references to another web site. Not sure if it's having a problem loading those elements leading to breaking the page. I'm no developer. - Eric - seven eleven
No, it's the server itself; it's serving up 404s on certain requests - http://sdrv.ms/10JonD9 - Mark H
Thanks for that. I am still amused. Last week it was the unclickable links, this week it's 404's making it look like hell. I wonder what next week will be. - April Russo
It looked fine to me in FF 20 also (OH NO. Clicking on About Firefox initiated a 16MB download...) - Walt Crawford
Now why did you have to say that? You made me go click the same thing and now I have it updating too. - April Russo
Also OK on Firefox 21, now that the upgrade's done. (Hmm. Clicking to "About Firefox..." starts the download process...but going anywhere else suspends it until you come back. Even if you keep the About Firefox window open.) - Walt Crawford
I closed it, came back and had a restart button. - April Russo
Seems to look and function fine in IE8 (the only browser we have at work...). - Hookuh Tinypants

For lunch I had a salad and a banana. Of course, the salad had blue cheese on it and I'm planning to eat chocolate cake later. This is why I practice a Belly Acceptance Program rather than a Fat Ass Reduction Program. The acronym isn't so good, though.
BAP! Sounds great! BAP BAP BAP BAP! - MoTO #TeamMonique

Apparently, the same forearm muscles required to lift concrete wall stones are the same used to move my mouse. OW.
You should write that up in a medical journal. - lris
I would imagine your ability to write 'longhand' is affected, too. #Ouch - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ

There was a young hawk hanging out around the campsite. Despite there being many, many fat squirrels for him to eat he preferred French Toast. He stole a piece and this ballsy squirrel stole it back.
Hand S.jpg
Maybe the hawk will dine on waffle-stuffed-squirrel and get the last laugh on everyone. - Brian Johns
There was a young hawk at the camp. Fat squirrels abounded and vamped. But French toast lit the bird's lamp. The toast it stole, raising the ire of a vole, who got it away and decamped. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Limerick license. Who needs facts? - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Course, that's how distortions get started in politics. - Mary B: #TeamMonique

Steele Lawman made me a cover for my book. (It may be tweaked a bit more.)
Night Sweats Cover.png
Fabu author photo!! - Katie
I love this so much. When Steve first showed me I was all THE COUCH!! IT IS THE COUCH!!! - Marianne
It IS the couch. :) Katie, you can thank PhotoBooth for the author photo. - laura x from BuddyFeed
I can't wait to read this! Well done, laura! - Lisa | #TeamMonique
Professional cover designs are one thing that traditional publishing has over self-publishing. Except when you can get a design that professional (that *is* a compliment) in a self-published book. Congratulations! - Walt Crawford
LOVE - jambina
Just fantastic. - Catherine Pellegrino
Everything looks wonderful! - Katy S
OMG! Where can I buy it! - Headless Gnad Kicker
oh wow, wow, wow. - Marie
Nowhere yet. But several places in the near future. - laura x from BuddyFeed
I keep seeing this and loving it again. - lris
... Imma add this cover to the miscellanea I'm collecting in case I ever get to teach a basic design course. - RepoRat
I love the couch! - maʀtha
For those curious about the couch: http://newrambler.net/ramblin... - laura x
Walt, I am touched by your compliment, after I have been a jerk to you too often. Thank you. That said, Laura supplied the photo of the couch, I chose a classic typeface and sampled colors from the photograph. So I'm happy with how it turned out, but it's more a matter of listening to what the author wanted. - Steele Lawman
OMG You mean Steele Lawman is actually Steve Lawson! I take it all.... Nah. A good book cover, especially a good uncluttered one, is great and not always easy to do. This one's good in a number of subtle ways. I try to respect those who have talents I lack, and really good cover design is one of those. - Walt Crawford
Good thing I can read. No one tells me anything! Here I was admiring the cover, never knowing the source of it! Wow. - Mama Lawson
Heh - maʀtha

"My high school counselor said I wasn't college material and that I would be best suited for secretarial work. I guess he was kind of right." – paraphrasing former Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis, on not letting arrogant condescending bastards limit your opportunities
When I told my high school counselor I wanted to take programming as an elective, he shoved me in secretarial typing. When I tried to argue about it, he told me that programming isn't for girls, secretarial typing is, and if I wanted to play with a keyboard, that's where I belonged. #80sGhettoHighSchool - April Russo
