It’s been a while! I’ve been meaning to write a lot more than I have the past couple of weeks, but life has been nothing short of, well, a bit on the chaotic side! All good things, but busy nonetheless. My wonderful husband has been working crazy amounts of overtime at his job before his busy season comes to an end, meaning we have to tweak our routines to adjust.
Speaking of routines, my side of things has done a complete 180! I’m so happy to announce that I started my dream job 2 weeks ago. I have a normal schedule now so we have more time to spend as a family! It’s been crazy getting everyone used to the new and exciting changes, but Hadley still isn’t a fan of getting up and ready at 5am (but really, who would be?!).
This paper discusses the creation of Ember, a collection of borndigital artifacts generated in the aftermath of the 1999 Aggie Bonfire collapse. Ember is an example of a previously unexamined class of cultural heritage digital libraries, which we describe as a digital memorial museum. Ember's artifacts consist of emails, photos, documents, and web pages that the communities surrounding the tragedy created. Due to the community investment and the personal nature of the artifacts, concerns arise on how the collection should be properly handled, which leads us to propose "Sensitivity" as an addition to the 5S model. Initially, we are focusing on the email portion of the collection, which can be viewed as the basis of an emerging oral tradition surrounding the Bonfire tragedy. 2011 ACM.

usa today...women's suffrage day celebration event?....kerry launches "take five" program to encourage supporters to find single women who want to "date" kerry on election day...apparently married women are more likely to support bush (not me of course).. seems to be a security issue... single women feel the ups and downs in the economy more...are more likely not to have health insurance...etc. the marriage gap isn't new and is getting bigger (just like the gulf between the haves and have nots, hmmmmmmm)...1984, the difference in the presidential votes of married and unmarried women was 17 percentage points, according to surveys taken as voters left polling places. There was a 21-point marriage gap in 1992, a 29-point gap in 1996, a 32-point gap in 2000.
"single women could be to Democrats what evangelical Christians have become to Republicans: a huge group of people who often haven't been engaged in politics before but hold many views in sync with the party."
i have trouble understanding why many of my politically passionate friends (regardless of party) have no hesitancy in describing their disagreement with particular politicians on policy as reasons to "hate" that person.
one institutionalized example of what I am talking about is whywehatebush.com.
now, while the rhetoric of the "reasons why we hate bush" is pretty overblown, the "reasons" do make a relatively cogent case for disagreeing with bush and for voting against him or for kerry.
but are they reasons to "hate" bush? e.g. he's "inarticulate". similarly, if you google "hate kerry," you'll get stuff like i "hate" kerry because he "flip flops"... he "only wants to get elected"
now what is "hate"?... "obsessive dislike unaccompanied by restraint and character" "a feeling of dislike so strong that it demands action"
to my mind "hate" is a term that should be reserved for persons whose actions are so antithetical to common decency and civility, such an affront to our common humanity, that they should provoke a visceral, almost unreasoned antipathy.. should we not "hate" our captors if we are Iraqi prisoners subjected to abuse and torture? should we not "hate" terrorists who purposely kill civilians to make a political point? should we not "hate" bigots who maim and kill solely because someone is of another race or religion?
perhaps before we continue to speak about our political opponents as people we "hate", we should think about the message we are sending to our children about when it is okay to "hate," consider the words of George Washington, and ask whether our words/feelings live up to his expectation of the "demeanor"
