I find it very frustrating that we still have Springer titles in the catalog from the pda collection that we already have directly from springer. I don't know how many times I've been assured that they suppressed our holdings. This particular title is also available free on the web. Sigh. I had pda.

just remembered mpow is doing something weird with holidays this year. the lab is closed for a half day Christmas and New Year's Eve and then closed on the days, but open the days after. Kind of a bummer.

I wonder if they make toddler utilikilts? My son really is enjoying trying on my daughters new skirt. (And I'm fine with that)

Yes they do make them or you can just buy him some regular ones too. No harm in that. - Christina Pikas - -

sad and frustrated - and unreasonably so - a series of classes I run at MPOW just had the teacher pull out of teaching 2 days before the class and an hour after I'd e-mailed a reminder to a large list of past class attendees. She's got some family health issues now and it's very understandable but now we won't have a class this month

the set of 3 teachers collaborating on december's class 1 is leaving the lab, 1 said it's not the right time to teach that class anymore so now I'm stuck coming up with a class for next month. Nobody's volunteering... "oh, I'm busy" - Christina Pikas - -

just learned that a work friend is leaving for another position. not surprised. they just kept dumping all the crap jobs on her and she was doing less and less fun library stuff. new crap job? give it to her, she'll do it

i don't know how many times and how many ways she needed to tell them that she wasn't happy. it's a management failure, for sure. - Christina Pikas - -

doing some research for someone who's looking at schools/programs from which to possibly recruit new hires... amazing the schools that advertise degrees while making it impossible to see what courses are taken or really any detail about what graduates will know.

the nutjob skitcher who is the climate denialist is presenting himself on sigmetrics as representing the position of the united states government. dear God I hope not. he might actually have an inside view of what's going on at DOE and maybe across...

Work is officially paying for no conference travel. Only travel they'll pay is to see a sponsor or do a field test. Is Hope L around? She was out that way and might enjoy. - Christina Pikas - -

PubMed Commons? First I'd heard? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedc... "a system that enables researchers to share their opinions about scientific publications. Researchers can comment on any publication indexed by PubMed, and read the comments of others"

@ Christina - my understanding is yes, indexed author, but if not under the NIH/Wellcome then you cannot register - someone has to invite you - too second class citizens for my taste. - Christina Pikas - -

Well that wasn't fun. Dog was a pita our short little walk so i basically yanked/dragged 95# of rottie mix having a bad day while taking the stroller across streets populated with people taking in cell phones driving 40 in a 25. Babies pulled a lamp down and broke a cfl. Girl has massive diaper rash and is screaming from constipation. During this
