Tweleted raises some larger privacy concerns. When users delete a post on Twitter, it disappears from their user profile but not from Twitter's search-engine results. Tweleted uses this loophole to dig up deleted posts. Some Twitter users are crying foul, arguing that when they delete something, it should be gone for good. The company says it's working to make this happen, although setting your Twitter profile to private fixes the issue. For now, it's worth remembering the old adage: If you don't want someone to read it, it's better not to write...
...burritos? You name it, we've fantasized about it. In fact, it's gotten to the point where I had a dream the other night about a chocolate shop. While we're in the city on our weekends off, us internationals hop from Western establishment to Western establishment, in search of the perfect solution to our culinary cravings. It's hard to find; Cream cheese and chocolate just don't taste the same in Africa. I know that when I get back to my village on Sundays, I will be met with a giant plate of food, and my family...
Travelers like the erudite British naturalist Redmond O'Hanlon used to come to these parts in search of untouched rainforest and unadulterated indigenous life. His Into the Heart of Borneo recounts a 1983 attempt, with poet pal James Fenton, to "rediscover" the Borneo rhinoceros near Sarawak's mountainous border with Indonesia. O'Hanlon describes wild dance parties at Dayak longhouses, fueled by gallons of tuak, a potent milky rice wine, and enthuses about jaw-dropping tangles of tropical growth along the Rajang and its watery veins, some walled in by lush, 200-ft.-high (60 m) tree canopies...
When physician and CNN medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta spurned President Obama's offer to become U.S. surgeon general, the White House resumed its search for qualified candidates to fill a role Obama called "America's leading spokesperson on issues of public health." On July 13, the President finally tapped Alabama physician Regina Benjamin for the post, calling his nominee "a relentless promoter of prevention and wellness programs" who "represents what's best about health care in America." A look at her accomplishments and accolades: See "A Guide to Preventing Illness at Every...
...wise Latina" is a new one to a lot of people. Before the Sotomayor speech was made available, finding the words wise Latina in articles of any sort was exceedingly rare. Latinas are frequently described as "fiery" or "caliente" or "curvy" - but rarely "wise." A cursory Nexis search reveals only a single book review, from 2000, of a sci-fi tome called The Fresco, in which a heroine who communes with aliens is described as the daughter of "a wise Latina lady and her salvage-yard husband." Clearly a page turner. (See Sonya Sotomayor's judicial record...
