Is Yosemite for Apple what Windows 8 was for Microsoft?

“My hope is that the reliability issues we are seeing in iOS and Mac OS X in recent releases are largely the inevitable result of Apple going through numerous transitions simultaneously. Extensions, XPC, iCloud Drive, Continuity ��� these things require coordination between all three of Apple���s platforms (mobile, desktop, cloud). That what we���ve been seeing […]

This One I Will Let People Make Up Their Own Minds

I subscribe to a newsletter online, it might actually be helpful to some people–it usually is for me: it’s called Medical News Today, and covers what is new in many medical fields. I’m particularly interested in what’s going on in depression research and some of the other medical areas, and while I’m supposed to be […]

Dear Facebook, Redux

No sooner than I post my post and happily move along to writing my review of well, a very nicely illustrated children’s book about mice who cook delicious cheese soup, which reminds me, I need to get the recipe, than I am posed with my first dilemma about not having a Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr […]

Dear Facebook

Dear Facebook, And everyone who thinks we want to sign in through Facebook. (Google) I have a complaint. Against you. Or Mark Zuckerberg. Actually, both, I suppose. I have had a Facebook account. Twice. The first time I left was because I was simply tired of Facebook. The second, and most important, was for mental […]

A look behind the scenes of the dysfunctional Mental Health System

Reblogged from takingthemaskoff.com This is an excellent post on one scenario of how two people, simply due to the circumstances of their birth, end up on two separate paths.

Post-Election Grumps and Thanksgiving: The Lies We Teach

I’m too tired to go on a huge rant. Let’s just say I’m extremely disappointed in the results of Tuesday’s election. Where were all the Democrats and Independents and Greens and everyone else who complains but when the time comes, do nothing? All of you had best keep quiet the next two years, because this […]

A Little Clarification on Yesterday’s Rant About Bicyclists

Q: Was the bicyclist “in the Zone” while in the zone? Also: This particular specimen of bicyclist did not enter my mind at all yesterday, however, I still hold to my earlier opinions. This is somewhat of an outlier on the Bell Curve of bicycling. I hope. Complete text re-posted from The Register-Guard and not […]
