Oh. Oh dear. So both defensive about her lack of knowledge in your area while at the same time trying to show that she fits in. That's not going to be confusing for everyone involved. Not at all. - Christina Pikas - -

Ugh they did warn me they would reboot my computer at 8 but life intervened and no time to save and be graceful. I tried to kill VPN fast but too late.

somebody at work is selling Annie tickets for $250 for two. You'd have to pay me way more than that to go to Annie.

Never thought I'd see this day: Refworks is importing conference papers from Scopus *correctly* and isn't importing them correctly from WoS.

aw man. next house over was foreclosed and is standing empty. it's supposed to be "winterized" but water is pouring out of the walls - literally. I'm guessing sprinkler piping burst over the upstairs. I called the company but they've got to be losing hundreds of gallons of water. and all the new carpeting the company put into it.

Poor Mr 2.75. Cuddled up on my lap snoozing. Didn't even want breakfast. Ms. 2.75 must have been why we're all up.

He's actually back in bed asleep. I hope he's not coming down with what Ms. 2.75 and I have been battling but it doesn't look good :( - Christina Pikas - -

2 year old shot mother (reached into purse, grabbed her gun, and shot her)... I totally believe my kids would do this. Then regret it. Maybe. So no loaded guns in my purse - hurts enough to be stabbed with a wooden Melissa and Doug knife.

christmas tree has some infestation of some kind of aphid or bug eggs or something. and it seems to be getting worse. husband doesn't care. googling - entomologists from Penn State are like no biggie... but I really don't want my good ornaments on there, I don't want it in my house, and I don't want my kids playing with it. i hope they don't hatch.

There must be a lot of money in ebooks. Non-book publishing societies are jumping on the bandwagon right and left (ACM, AAS). Is there a demand in these fields typically driven by conference pubs (ACM) and journal articles (AAS)?

10 years ago from Friendfeed - Comment - Hide - - -

Hmmm. At a guess, they're trying to get in on demand-driven acquisitions deals. I don't know this for certain; it's just the reason I'd do this if I were in their shoes. - Christina Pikas - -

weird - there must be an assignment at LSU or someplace where students have to read blog posts and then critique them on twitter and create a storify of the critiques each week. I've had 2 students critique posts of mine. Somewhat perfunctory comments. Anyone else?
