Self-fulfilling prophecies
Do you believe in such things? Would you believe if it was in the writing of a 5th grader, her future autobiography? Now that, that 5th grader is grown and most of what she had seen as a child has come to fruition – good & bad? I’m scared, I was that child. I’m praying for some heavenly guidance to help me off of this track leading to a place I am not yet ready for. If there is some fill-in-the-blank option to my story so I may change the ending, Lord, please help me re-route this course.
Dice.com: When Newbies Get Smartphones - The Horror
But few newbies got the snowball of notoriety as “Concertgoer X” did during a literally show-stopping performance of the New York Philharmonic last week. The man, described only as a senior, was apparently given a new iPhone in place of his Blackberry. He told the New York Times that while trying to find a way to mute the phone for the performance, he accidentally set the alarm. Near the end of the symphony, the dulcet tones of iPhone’s Marimba met Mahler’s Ninth Symphony. That led to shouting concert-goers and the eventual halting of the performance by conductor Alan Gilbert.
So, my question to Dice users out there—has something like this happened to you or someone you know? Share your technical etiquette horror stories and we’ll send a Dice coffee mug to the best one we hear. Please put “Horror Story” in the subject line and send it to alice@dice.com. I can’t wait to check my inbox.
No joke, can you please help me help others?
As you may know, I’ve been a part of Glad Tidings Church in San Francisco (GT) for the past 6 years. Over the past 10 years, we have partnered with a church and school in Guayaquil, Ecuadot called Centro Cristiano. This school is packed with kids who would not be able to get an education without the help of the church and its sponsors (like GT). In fact, it’s so packed that they need more classrooms!
We need to raise $25,000 to build new classrooms in Guayaquil. There are one hundred people at my church that have committed to help raise this amount, which means I need to raise $250. That’s where you come in!
Hopefully, you’re here because you want to help. If so, please click on the link to the right that says “ChipIn!” and make a donation that will certainly make a difference in the lives of many underprivileged kids in Guayaquil. Its through Paypal so it’s safe and secure.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!

Audiobooks: + & -
Audiobooks: My ups and downs with them. Certain writings do fine in audio such as fairy tales, classics, and exasperated self-help books. Now science, engineering, business, and history… notes need to be taken, audiobooks just speed through the point that caught your attention. BUUUT… if you have a thing for learning via osmosis while you sleep or while stuck in traffic, the audiobooks should be just dandy.
