I recently found out that 2 women both affiliated with my former graduate program committed suicide this year. One was recent and the other was a couple of months ago. I only knew one of them, but not well. Many people I know knew both of them. They were both incredibly bright, caring women conducting important

Almost took a job there last year. Then I got an offer that didn't require moving. Taxes are low there, but that means the social services of the state are basically nonexistent.

I'm waiting with baited breath for HBO streaming service to start so I can watch it!

I hear you, but because of the over saturated academic market all those PhDs who can't find academic jobs will be applying for your non-academic dream job. There are more people with PhDs than there are jobs for PhDs, academic or not. You may have a slight edge in the non-academic world, but don't expect it to be

Happy Birthday! I listen to podcasts and audiobooks.

Before you choose, just realize that the job market for PhDs is bad, really, really bad especially if you're considering entering an academic career. I've worked for years to get the PhD and finally landed a tenure track job. But now I've got to claw and scratch for several years until I *hopefully* get tenure. The

One problem with celebrity tweeting is that we might see a different side of them. And often that side sucks, especially when compared with our imagined versions of them.

So clearly fake. No one goes to videos stores, if there are any video stores left.

I'm fairly short-waisted too—at least I am compared to models! My last comment was totally unclear. I meant that the Target underwear was low enough rise for me. I wear pants low too, not butt crack low, but low. The Target underwear is fine for these. FYI the jeans that say "Sits just below the waist" are waist

All the ones like Hanes that say low rise are always WAY too high. These work for me. But every body is different.

I like Target's hipster's. I can't remember now if they are the Gilligan and O'Malley or Xhilaration. But they are low, cover my whole butt, and aren't shorts.

Amazon owns 6pm.com but Prime membership doesn't extend to 6pm purchases. So don't hold your breath for Prime shipping from NAP.

I'm a little sad about this. You can't, or couldn't until now, buy Lilly where I live. I got a couple of dresses while on vacation in Florida. I kind of liked having clothes that were different than what everyone here wears. And that it reminded me of the beach and even the swamps. I like that Target makes it

Ha! I didn't notice my typo.

I went to college in Washington (long, long ago before espresso was commonplace) and learned about good espresso there, not from Starbucks though! Back at home one summer, a coffee place opened and bragged about their "ice caps." I kid you not, they would make a cappuccino...and then pour it over ice. So you would

I had to scroll back up to see what you meant. I didn't realize those were jeans! I thought they were shorts and didn't even notice the lower part on her legs. Not chic as shorts either, btw.

excellent point!

It would probably be hard to stay open because there would likely be a mass exodus of students and faculty in those years. They would have a hard time making enough tuition to stay operational and keeping enough faculty to teach all the courses necessary for students to finish there majors/minors. Academic jobs are

Went to Starbucks, of course.
