GOOD EVENING, TOD!
Congrats Alycee! :)
Good evening Nerdy, Chips, TOD, lurkers, everyone. :)
Don’t forget to tune in to the Critics Choice Movie Awards tonight on A&E at 9PM ET. :)
Thanks for the heads up, HF.
Thanks for the reminder! Totally forgot. Just set the dvr to record. Phew!
Congrats Alycee :)
NW, you never fail to bring so many important topics to our attention. Thank you (also, thank you for including one of my tweets, very kind).
You’re welcome, Bob.
It was a fantastic tweet.
Good Evening Golden Lady! :-)
Once again, great roundup of tweets, NW.
Amazing that you capture what’s going on every day, when so much *is* happening.
Thanks, Arapaho415.
Speechless!
Mac users, I have a question. I don’t what the heck I did, but my mini menu bar has disappeared and I need it back.
Where it says, Apple, Yahoo, Google Maps, etc., in the picture, has disappeared. How do I get those short cuts back?
Thanks.
I’ve never seen a layout like that but did you try pulling down the View menu at the very top of the screen and click on some of those toggles?
Yeah, I’ve been trying that but no dice.
If I only knew what the heck that bar was called, I would be able to correctly Google an explanation.
Try “ribbon”
When I googled ribbon bar, it only gives me solutions for Excel.
Hmmm….
The thing is, it looks like a dupe of your favorites bar. Is it another bar looking thing or just separate (movable) icons on the desktop?
They’re movable in that you can move them from side to side. As in, replace the order, so that Yahoo! moves to first place and Apple moves to second place on the bar.
Maybe this link helps?
http://www.macworld.com/article/2848112/how-to-make-sense-of-safaris-new-favorites-bookmarks.html
The article helped.
It’s back!!!!!
You were right. It was just a faster/short cut duplicate of my favorites bar.
Meta? I LOVE YOU…..I LOVE YOU….I LOVE YOU…I LOVE YOU!
You come through every freaking time.
Thank you so much. :)
Oh, cool!! I hate it when things I love disappear.
Me too. It throws me off and messes with my vibe. I need certain things on my browsers to have an order or chaos ensues.
Thanks again for the help. You’re the best. :)
YASSS, I get all tweaked, too. You’re so welcome. Glad I could help.
Flip Nerdy, I don’t use a menu bar like that so I have NO clue. This might be one of the very rare occasions when Amk is useful around here, wake up Mister, fix this.
Not to worry, Chiparoo. Thanks.
Meta to the rescue again.
She’s a freaking genius when it comes to Mac problems.
apple ? safari ? uugghh. not my cuppas.
Click on View and Show Favorites Bar (quick tutorial from my visiting mac whiz stepson)!
There’s an area on top right with a “magnifying glass”, write the words mini menu bar in it.
It should bring up several items for you to choose from. If you find what you’re looking for,
then click on it, and it should appear on your screen. Hope this works :)
GE all - seems the more things change - the more they stay the same - this reminded me of Ferguson
“MLK arrested for “loitering,” Montgomery, Alabama, 1958″
Another million thanks Nerdy for the tweet selection. The black roles that are considered worthy by the Oscar folks sure cements in the “nothing changes” meme.
Thanks, 99ts.
Not all of them are racists, but some of them are. And like you said it does not seem to bother them that their base and office holders are first class racists. I always say that not all Republicans are racists, just 99.9% of them.
Mr. President, is that a hint of a smirk on your face?………I hope, I hope, I hope, you are so cool, take that republicans.
I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooove you Nerdy, thank you Legend!!!!
Ahem: http://theobamadiary.com/2015/01/15/a-tweet-or-two-210/#comment-1239350
Hey Chips, I need a question about Mac/Safari answered. Can you scroll up and see if you have any answers?
Thanks.
Answered above: just click on view; then click on View Favorites Bar.
Thanks for all your BT work and tweets!
Thanks, Taiping1.
Ok, the young Malian man who saved shoppers at the kosher supermarket looks like a young… Didier Drogba. #ChelseaRules
This was kinda my thought, too:
He was too busy focusing on the Ready for Hillary campaign to care much about expanding or retaining the democratic seat in the Senate.

YES!
President Obama is awesome.
Oh my, that is magnificent.
Please someone make this pic a keeper on TOD. It such a dramatic juxtaposition of present/past president.
perfect pic of cause and effect.
Stunning, really. One of the most profound in a sea of profound photos.
Stunning.
Breathtaking!
A portrait of Lincoln
Overhangs my space
It was a different time
And yet not a different place

I am not alone in time
And when I feel his presence
Destiny is mine. Destiny is mine.

What I See in Lincoln’s Eyes

I bet he’s showing off all the wonderful artifacts in his office. Such a wonderful and thoughtful collection.
Nerdy, as always, AN OUTSTANDING round-up of tweets. I claimed first, then got immersed in reading links! Thanks for keeping the old girl informed and on her toes…
Thanks, Alycee.
Congratulations on first.
As I think of this latest right wing ugly attack on the Obamas were Mike Huckabee was questioning their parenting, Elizabeth Lauten and her article. I find myself admiring the First Lady more and more. Because if it was me, you can talk about the President, he’s grown, he choose to run for this job, you can even talk about me, I can take it, but leave my kids alone. Leave them alone. I know FLOTUS can’t say anything, she has to hold her peace, but sometimes it can’t be easy.
Ok folks, about to go home. About to enjoy a fine cocktail, the loyalty of a good dog, and the side-eyes of several cats. If’n I don’t come back tonight, see you all on the morrow.
Not counter-intuitive at all…in fact, she’s right up his alley…And this should give ANY progressive/liberal/Dem serious pause about an HRC Presidency.
GAH
strange bedfellows. not.
And that’s all anyone needs to know about that.
“comma” “coma” let’s call the whole thing off:)
typo corrected …. I really do need food and sleep …..
bleh
UGH
double UGH…
Triple UGH - NO-ONE should be happy to be seen to have “overlapped” with him.
Bill Clinton works with people on “charitable/foundation” efforts such as George W Bush who, after shaking a hand or two in Haiti, wiped off his own hand on Clinton’s shirt. So why not Rupert?
The best way to counteract that Hollywood Oscar snub of Selma? Go see it in droves…make it a HUGE money maker. They understand that.
Exactly, Df. That was the point I made earlier. Everyone who made the film and everyone in it will be hot property in Hollywood if it makes a lot of money both in theaters and on dvd. The movie did not cost much to make, so it should make a very big profit. Encourage everyone you know to go see it often.
I’m going to see it on Monday
LOVE. HIM.
That’s OUR President! :)
Maybe Oprah will be able to come.
NW, once again great posting of tweets. Is it really true, I just read somewhere else that Joni Ernst was the token republican rebuttal to SOU? Uh, oh, if so this should be good, for the comedians.
Maybe she’ll castrate some unsuspecting Iowa farmer on live tv…you know, one that’s dependent on the govt for SUBSIDIES!! Wake up, people!! They’re just not that into you!!
I expected better from the people of Iowa. Why I don’t know. But Bruce Braley would have been a better Senator.
GE Anna,
Vicki and others observed that this is a way for the GOP men to throw women under the bus of #POTUSunplugged.
so you dumped 1500 bucks on google glass, the much touted “wearable tech”?
well, google just dumped you.
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-30831128
why wouldn’t they have her there? after all, the voters wantonly, willingly and knowingly voted for her kind and their brand of treason, didn’t they?
amk, she is absolutely the perfect choice, no question about it. Entirely consistent with @GOP policy and the the Fox-enthralled voters who elected her. Those who didn’t vote get just what they deserve.
The trouble is that we who voted got what the non-voters deserve, too. Ugh. To this day, I still can’t believe the crappy turnout.
Neither can I, Jacqueline.
Me either! I was sooooooo angry for such a long time. Not sure if I’m over it yet :(
I don’t think I am, either, Betsy. Makes me nauseous thinking about it.
I hear you :( :(
I see that NBC has an evening story on the twitter storm @OscarsSoWhite. So we’re having an impact.
well, I am off to do this with the kids. ciao.
Wishing you a fun ride with the kids :)
Hello TOD! I’m coming to you from my new iPhone 😄
Hi there! :-D
:-)
On the home front, today:
Great grandson to Mommy: What’s 5?
Mommy: Five.
Kid: No like when you go to the bathroom. Like pee.
Mommy: That would be No. 1. There is no 5.
Me: Five would be like “alert the neighbors”!
The end.
Hey Alycee, thanks for the heads up about the West Wing reunion. Found a couple great tweets.
Audio available here:
http://mlk-kpp01.stanford.edu/index.php/encyclopedia/documentsentry/doc_acceptance_speech_at_nobel_peace_prize_ceremony/
If of interest … the Pope makes some strong statements in the Philippines (ahh, Jesuits) … and so very much reminds me of President Obama and his upcoming SOTU!
“The first part of Friday morning’s official welcome ceremony at Malacanan required the Pope to sign the so-called “Golden Book.” This is what he wrote, in English: “On the President and people of this beloved land of the Philippines, I ask Almighty God’s abundant blessings of wisdom, discernment, prosperity and peace” … That’s something new. Not the fact of signing the visitor’s book or invoking blessings of prosperity and peace. It’s that word “discernment,” a very Jesuit word, most often associated with Ignatian spirituality, the simplest meaning of which is “the ability to decide between truth and error, between right and wrong” … It’s the word that set the tone for the Pope’s first public speech here in the Philippines, a speech addressed precisely to those who make the decisions: government leaders, authorities, diplomats, and the President himself.”
I really, really like this Pope!
I do, too. Gives me HOPE.
So do I! Not a Catholic, however, I’ve signed up for the Pope’s visit to Philly in September… I really, really like this Pope!
Me neither. He’s pretty awesome though.
Discernment is a concept often and dynamically used in metaphysical studies, as it invokes a sense of our Higher Intelligence and activates a level of conscious, Soul Awareness. God works through human beings, as we answer to ourselves, and ultimately to God. Discernment is about taking responsibility for all our actions, our speech, even our thoughts. As we consistently witness President Obama actively doing. I am very pleased Pope Francis is finally lifting the shroud of darkness which has befallen the RCC doctrines, and setting people free of the yoke. Jesus Christ was so much more than the RCC and other Christian religions have attempted to confine him into being. And they have all made too much money over the millenia, selling his name and enslaving people with their twisted beliefs.
Is it me or did his experience in Ferguson slap some of the smug out of Chris Hayes? Ever since then, he’s a tad more tolerable.
I wondered that about ol’ Chris, myself. Hope it did.
It’s a momentary lapse. He’ll be back to normal next week…
:-)
Here’s the original one.
Gotta say these Kelly Twins are pretty darn awesome! :-)
:-)
Sometimes I feel I’m not so ready for globalization - Ha. Just had to block some weird guy from apparently Germany who followed me (couldn’t tell if he was for real or not, and saw something a little anti-everything in his R/Ts). But then this person - apparently from Prague - lifted my spirits! This tweet’s been passed around since Nov. 12, and finally surfaced in my TL, just in time to lift my spirits! Love it when that happens. And with this, I shall bid you all adieu.
JO’B, I think it is a powerful albeit confusing time for many here on Earth. There is information abounding which many have never been exposed to, and the human awakening is powerful, at the same time overwhelming for many. Old habits of thought are difficult to break, even once they are recognized, by each of us, even within ourselves.
I was just kidding! Ha - thanks for your lovely thoughts, all kidding aside.
FLOTUS Favorite, Ledisi, knocked it out of the park in her scene as Mahalia Jackson in Selma
Well I’ve posted myself into a sleep-fogged stupor (and WordPress moderation), so I’ll take that as a sign.
Goodnight Everyone!
GOODNIGHT DUDETTE…THANKS FOR THE MUSIC…:)
Good night Dudette and TOD family.
Who saw Lawrence O’Donnell rewrite last night? It was about Rep. Steve Scalise when he was in office in Louisiana, the legislation was going to apologize for slavery. But Scalise said was not in favor of it, he said why should he apologize for something he didn’t do?.He was all set to block what they wanted to do, when David Vitter come up with removing the word apology and replacing it with regret. Now I fine myself wondering Scalise don’t think what black people went through with slavery was worth an apology, sounds just like something you would expect to hear from David Duke and the KKK.
Mooooooorning!
