1:18 am
vanillaslice

mind you, I won't be making 2020. I'm now on chemo, had radiation and I'm glad I'm having a great day today
1:19 am
flosey

all the best with the chemo
1:20 am
vanillaslice

ty its not the nicest
1:21 am
vanillaslice

They are still hoping to slow down the process
1:22 am
gapeach

Gosh, vanilla, I did not know. Will it be alright for me to pray for you? I will be glad to, if it is OK with you
1:22 am
flosey

no, not pleasant at all
1:24 am
vanillaslice

I'd love that peach, just a few days ago I received a crocheted blanket made by a group of church ladies, each square made with a special prayer for my wellbeing, I was overwhelmed
1:27 am
gapeach

There is still a great amount of good people left.....my granddaughter has a rare kind in her brain. Was clear for 7 years but it has spread to other parts of her body. She is on chemo only now. She has an 8 year old son. Says she knows she won't see him grow up.
1:29 am
vanillaslice

I spent time in the city for radiation and was there with a number of children and young adults, it humbles you to see their strength
1:30 am
gapeach

Yes, I'm sure it does.
1:31 am
gapeach

Did you do the Proton Beam Radiation Therapy earlier?
1:33 am
vanillaslice

Not sure. For the bladder it was normal radiation, for the lung cyberknife. There's only a few in the world and it's a far greater dosage but homes in much better on the tumor
1:35 am
vanillaslice

Just looking it up that sounds much like the cyberknife I had.
1:36 am
gapeach

There were only 2 here in the US when she had that therapy.....one in Boston and one in Loma Linda, Ca. Now there are quite a few. You could go on like and just type in Proton Beam Radiation locations. Wpuld there be a way for you to come here?
1:37 am
gapeach

go on line....sorry
1:37 am
flosey

now there's one in Seattle, WA, Peach, that's where my daughter went - we don't have that facility in Canada yet
1:37 am
gapeach

would. Golly, I must be getting sleepy. Sorry
1:38 am
gapeach

Oh, flosey, I didn't know. I will put her on my list also.
1:40 am
flosey

she's been through the course, Peach, now just has the mri's regularly to see that it hasn't come back
1:40 am
vanillaslice

Looks like there's a bit of controversy whether cyberknife or Proton Beam is better. Nothing is straightforward is it.

No, it isn't. Perhaps it is because it is rather new.

They also can't treat all cancers the same. I've also been inundated with quack treatments that's why I generally steer away from talking about it on social media

So ridiculous, some school board has decided to get rid of school librarians.
6:01 am
crosshair

!!!
6:01 am

and who is going to keep the library organized??
6:01 am
Sugrraleona

me5
6:01 am
sukee

They probably expect volunteers.
6:02 am
crosshair

sure.. that will work.. everyone will try and be the boss
6:02 am
sukee

As a person with a library background, I think it is awful. Librarians (and technicians like I was) are definitely needed.
6:02 am
sukee

Yes, and they will choose books based on personal likes or dislikes or religion, etc.
6:04 am
crosshair

I think I heard that PA no longer has public libraries run by the state. Shocking. Hope things have changed.
6:05 am
crosshair

I do not know about other areas, but our little town of 26,000 would be totally lost without our library!
6:05 am
sukee

The US seems to be going backwards. We need someone to step in like Carnegie did in his time. Now they are too greedy it seems. They can always find money for the military.
6:05 am
crosshair

So much happens there.
6:06 am
crosshair

Indeed. sadly our very own Carnegie library burned down in the 1920's but there has always been another built to house our books.
6:07 am
sukee

Although, small lending libraries are popping up. People put a box or book case on their lawn and tell people they can borrow them.
6:07 am
sukee

Libraries are also important for kids who don't have a computer at home.
6:08 am
sukee

brb, have to brush my teeth :)
6:08 am
crosshair

Our new library is the hub of the town. Not only books, but meeting places for book clubs, and study get-togethers, as well as language classes. Local artists can also get free space to hang their works for all to see. Plus all the town archives and local family records going back generations are stored there.
6:09 am
crosshair

yes, computers as well, and this new building has a green roof where you can go up there and sit amongst the trees and flowers and look out over georgian bay while enjoying your next read
6:12 am
crosshair

The kids can even bring their e-readers to the children's section and the librarian will help them load up a few books from the data base.
6:16 am
crosshair

technology and books on the shelves spanning the last 100 years or so live in harmony. it is a nice place:)
6:16 am
sukee

Sounds great.
6:16 am
crosshair

was worth every dime:)
6:17 am
ivesy3

we have one man here who constantly puts articles in the paper on how they should close the library..i dont think he ever stepped foot in one
6:17 am
crosshair

That is sad:(
6:17 am
sukee

They just fixed up our main library here, haven't been yet but here it is great. Has a lot of the same features.
6:17 am
sukee

hear :)
6:18 am
sukee

I want to go there and check Ancestry.com, you can use it free inside the library.
6:18 am
ivesy3

and as for volunteers, we have our share and they for the most part are more trouble than help
6:18 am
sukee

Anyway, I have got to run. Take care all.
6:19 am
crosshair

tc, sukke
6:19 am
crosshair

and what is this guy's reasoning for closing the library??
6:21 am
ivesy3

says it cost the city too much money, we operate on a budget of $139 thous. .that includes wages. which are miniumum wage
6:21 am
crosshair

That is not much at all
6:22 am
ivesy3

this from someone who was a cop and prob. gets quite the retirement check...lol. more than i make i am sure
6:22 am

Our new place cost ten million--half of which was raised within a month by donations and it is 4 floors including the town archive storage and Coast guard office
6:23 am

6:40 am

6:40 am

Howdy, Bichon
6:41 am

Yes, the libraries are a hive of activity for the kids, and even more important in smaller towns that cannot support a large entertainment infrastructure.

I know Molly --- will have to work on it later -- did a photo collage with photochop, but thik I should have resized the photos first instead of after it was done.
12:24 pm

12:27 pm
MollyL

Yes, you have to download any program to use it.
12:27 pm
josephjames

Really? I usually find that after you resize you have lower quality, so I do that last. Otherwise any other adjustments you make further reduce the quality.
12:30 pm
MollyL

Yes, when you resize a photo it reduces the quality. But icons here are restricted to a certain size for viewing, otherwise they are just giant, like Nan's is now.
12:31 pm
cybernan

I think the problem is that once I had done the collage, the layers locked and now it won't resize
12:33 pm
MollyL

Well Nan, if you made a collage, you have the individual picture somewhere. That is what needs to be resized before using it as an icon here. One that isn't giant anyway.
12:34 pm
cybernan

that's what I said earlier
12:36 pm
MollyL

Here is a tinyurl link to your picture, resized

Thanks Molly -- that saved me some work!
12:43 pm

And now your icon isn't giant anymore. Yay.
12:45 pm
cybernan

will remember to resize first with the next one! This was the first time I had tried to make a collage with photoshop
12:45 pm
MollyL

Just goes to show how "not private" pictures you post on the internet are. Anyone can copy them and do what they want with them. People who use Facebook should remember that.
12:45 pm
cybernan

not as easy as it sounds when you have to figure out how to circumnavigate all the presets that you don't necessarily want
12:46 pm
cybernan

agreed on the privacy bigt
12:46 pm
josephjames

you can always save the pic, open it in another program like Microsoft Picture Viewer, and resize it from there.

Resizing pictures requires some internet savvy that some people don't have. I have tried to explain it here, but it is easier to show someone in person.
12:47 pm
cybernan

yes - I have it - have just never used it
12:48 pm
josephjames

it's really easy, just open the pic in MPV, choose Picture and then Resize
12:49 pm
MollyL

I try to stay away from Microsoft programs. I find them very "user unfriendly"
12:49 pm
cybernan

I resize crop and edit my photos all the time -- but am usually doing it for an hd video presentation which is a whole different kettle of fish. Also have to downsize for the web pages I write, but I'm not dealing with collages there, nor making icon sized stuff
12:52 pm
MollyL

Resizing for a web page is the same for any web page. You just have to know the dimensions that work on the web page. Here it is 350 x 350
12:53 pm
cybernan

in this case, molly, because of the editing I had done, the pixils were locked
12:57 pm
MollyL

Not sure how pixils get locked. That is why I recommended a different imaging program.
12:58 pm
MollyL

Even if you make a collage with pictures, you should still be able to resize the individual pictures you used.
12:59 pm
cybernan

yes and that is what I was going to do, but as you have done it for me I won't need to now
12:59 pm
cybernan

Thanks again

random question for anybody here (on the theory that ya'll are word-nerds)... what's the origin of the phrase "make a leg"? I know what it means, but my google-fu is failing to hunt up where it came from

10:50 pm
jesdraggon

it means to bow exaggeratedly
10:50 pm
Uneaixoise

never heard of it . . .
10:51 pm
jesdraggon

but i want to know how it came about, because it's a really weird phrase for what it means
10:51 pm
hpb

Me neither. But it probably has to do with the bow--maybe they put one foot forward.
10:53 pm
jesdraggon

hmm. i thought for sure this'd be the place to find the answer. ah well.

Truly, madam, if God have lent a man any manners, he may easily put it off at court: he that cannot make a leg, put off's cap, kiss his hand and say nothing,
10:54 pm
jesdraggon

which may be where i first heard it, but i didn't think he invented it, and i've heard it used elsewhere
10:54 pm
Uneaixoise

oh well :-)
10:55 pm
Pinikula

"make a leg" = The phrase "make a leg" refers to the act of bowing or obeisance. It is believed that it comes from the act of drawing a leg slightly backward and bowing. This sort of bowing is most common after a theoretical performance or show. It was a form of curtsey that the paid by the performer to the audience when they applauded his or her performance. It implies the sense of being grateful for something. The bow is actually being more out of gratitude then any sense of respect due.
10:55 pm

i did read a lot of shakespeare as a kid though, so maybe i just think it was mroe commonly used than it was?

Jes, Shakespeare made up many manay words and phrases--the ORD may give the origen, or there must be some book or treatise on the words etc he n made up. I am familiar with "make a leg--but pictured it in my mind with a leg coming forward and the owner-a man-flourishing his hat
