Mescalero group holds Otero Mesa sacred
"Officially advocating for Otero Mesa to become a national monument, a group of Mescalero elders are making their voices heard on behalf of the grasslands of southern Otero County. The mission of the group is to preserve Otero Mesa and insure the history of the Mescalero Apache connection to the area is recognized. "We envision Otero Mesa as a place for Apache youth programs that will educate and inspire them by the unique lifestyle of their ancestors," says their mission statement." - News from Bookmarklet

Freedom vision: Architect Philip Freelon pictures an international destination in the Third Ward
"Freedom is finding a second voice at the Third Ward's Emancipation Park with the battle cry of nationally-known architect Philip Freelon, whose North Carolina architecture firm is repositioning the historic 10-acre green — the city's first park — as a crucible for African American culture, past and present. The Emancipation Park commission is loaded with personal meaning for Freelon. For a period, the Philadelphia-native lived on Almeda Road, two of his three children were born in Houston and his family attended the historic Antioch Church." - News from Bookmarklet

Unfriending, Unfollowing, Unsubscribing... Less Can Be More
And from all that, my first thought was, "Gasp! I wonder if I made the Twitter cut?!?" I've never understood the "more is better" attitude. Interesting to see folks coming around to my way of thinking. ;-) Anti-socials unite! Or, you know, quality vs quantity, whatever. - peamageddon
Pea, I follow you everywhere. And yes, it's a tough move. I know there are some folks who will discover they were cut this way. - Louis Gray
Don't mind me. I'm social media self conscious on account of how I only ever talk about myself. :D .... On Twitter at least, people can still follow you so are they really missing out on much by you not following them? You make your email/phone info public so if someone really had to reach you, they still certainly have the means to do so. - peamageddon
There will be blood (and milkshaking drinking)! - RAPatton from iPhone
About time you figured that out, Louis. - The Amber
i follow any&everyone, cause you never know where inspiration may come from; if they then post contrary to what could be taken as helpful to the delete bin they go, :/ - chaz2b
As always, a considered approach and one that you've been working up to for at least a year. It makes sense, however unpalatable it might be to you and other people. It's a good thing that, despite your protests to the contrary, you find value in things that are not linearly related to your core business. - WoH: Minding her Steves
I follow everyone until I can be sure they aren't saying anything interesting. I've been pretty lax recently, though. I need to cut some folks. - Rah-PM 2012

I did something similar on Twitter...if I couldn't put you on a list, chances are I unfollowed you completely. And anyone I did put on a list most likely was unfollowed from my main feed and only followed on a list. But there is a big difference between unfriending someone on facebook and unfollowing them on most other sites. The difference is that when you drop them on fb, they stop... more... - April
Hmmm, I saw this because I haven't unfollowed everyone yet. ;-) - Robert Scoble
Robert, I've yet to unfollow you either. (Except on Cinchcast - too many emails) I can get those via Twitter. - Louis Gray
Louis: so far I've seen this post at least 17 times. Probably more but I stopped counting. - Robert Scoble
I just never followed that many people... on purpose... Seemed logical really. - Johnny from iPhone
April has a point. I think you are worthy of a fan page on Facebook. - Laura Norvig
Laura, I don't have any interest in a fan page on Facebook. I understand April's point, but I will not go the ego route. That's not me. - Louis Gray
Moment Of Zen: It's easier to prun a bonsai than fell a jacaranda. Social media services are like gardens etc... - Johnny from iPhone
I don't consider having a fan page an ego thing...it's a matter of being practical, to me.

Home feed on facebook is only for real friends by design. You should have a fan page on facebook, Louis. For us, unworthy souls. :) - İlter Kalkancı
Certain truths such as 'quality vs quantity' still apply, whether we are offline or online. I mean, really, nothing has changed here people. - David McDonald
But Louis, you say FriendFeed is mummified. So how is it I even saw your message? - Walt Crawford

[Fields 91% idle] Eivind, thanks! Here's 162 coins for doin' nothin'! The big ole crop is still too much for one farmer to ignore though... think you could rustle up some more non-helpers? I'll give you half the harvest for every farmhand you fire. Best hurry -- just 8 hours till it... till it... actually, there's no hurry. - Stephen Mack
Heh, thanks. I was built for not farming :) - Eivind
It's good non-work if you can not get it. - Stephen Mack
lol Stephen good play on the old song. the sad point though is that the idea (subsidy for farmers facing hard times) started out as a good and necessary one but has become almost useless through stipulation. - Melanie Reed
Yeah, we're making fun but a very serious business -- $52 billion in the U.S. in 2007 (http://www.google.com/publicd...). - Stephen Mack
Agree its very serious business. Especially when you look at the Economic pie chart of the US GDP and you consider the ever-threatening issue of food shortages and famine around the world. When society changed from largely sustainable and semi-sustainable family farms to the majority allowing big business to hire them, farming communities which relied heavily on the support of each... more... - Melanie Reed
Let's say for example, A certain big business corporation managed farm, thinks it will make more money selling wheat from Egypt than it will from the US farm, so its going to pay off that US farm NOT to produce wheat when it could and we could store that grain for future use. That trade equation is a huge part of the problem - Melanie Reed
Davis, I'd like to not pay you to design more along those lines.... - Stephen Mack
Nearly 24 hours after I posted, it hit top 5 on my version of the "best of day" list, I'm very happy. Thanks everyone for the likes, comments, shares and tweets. #1 on the list is Tina's post about getting a job, which shows FF has its priorities straight. <3 to all. - Stephen Mack

Owl House located in Nieu-Bethesda, South Africa | Atlas Obscura | Curious and Wondrous Travel Destinations
"Suffering from depression as she reached middle age, Helen Martins began to channel her boredom with the life around her into creation, embellishing her surroundings with sculpture and painting and bringing light, color and art into her house and garden. She began with the inside of her house, which she soon finished, and then moved on to the outside, where she and Koos Malgas spent twelve years building the "Camel Yard," the exterior sculpture garden filled with hundreds of stone sculptures. Inspired by biblical texts, the poetry of Omar Khayyam, and the works of William Blake, Martins was also particularly fond of owls, hence the name of the house. By her late seventies, however, she was losing her eyesight and was no longer well enough to work on her house. She ended her life at age 78 by swallowing caustic soda." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet

Re: How I Live and Breathe Google Reader - http://www.skepticgeek.com/rss...
"Reader is outstanding when it comes to scanning huge volumes of posts. The mistake I most make is thinking the person sharing is the author - the old speed reading lets me down. Another good shortcut: if you hit the 'u' key then it gets rid of the left-hand subscription information to make the screen viewing area bigger. This means you can see a few more words in list view that can make a different whether or not it's worth reading the whole item." - Dave Richardson

Is it a one day affair or a weekend with several parties ? - ɯɥøq sɐɯoɥʇ
We have bachelor bowling for the gents and Zoo Lights for the ladies on Thursday, rehearsal dinner on Friday and then the real deal on Saturday. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
The most important thing IMO... keep reminding yourself to settle down and enjoy the time/events/people who show up. It's such a crazy whirlwind when it's all going on you've got to focus on not letting it just wash over you. During the reception, Al and I would find each other and center ourselves to make sure we would be able to soak it in. It's the best. - SAM
If your buddies are anything like mine: Keep control of the wine flow to that part of the table ! "Funny" comments during your speech is not what a nervous groom needs:) Anyway, after the speech it was a delightful evening where everything was arranged for us and I didn´t have to worry about anything. Doesn´t happen often. - ɯɥøq sɐɯoɥʇ
