Word of the Day: SubjacentCategory: school
Equivalent to adjacent but underneath (sub). Image Salon is subjacent to our office.
Legal context: "Subjacent support rights are the rights of surface owners to not have their land subside from the activities of the owners of underground rights." Coal mining is a good example: as the miners are removing coal, they have to make sure that the surface doesn't collapse. The relation of the subsurface to the surface is "subjacent".

Good story lucky guys whom knew her :)
Legally that is pretty interesting I heard of things called Mineral rights but never thought about the fact that people above the land would have rights as well....

Oddly enough, I first heard this word when I was in the pre-law program at the University of Detroit (so it must have been my frosh or sophomore year) drinking with one of my "mentors" at a bar called the Roaring Twenties (if memory serves). The usage:
"She does not like missionary men, she prefers them subjacent" quoth the mentor.
"What the F. . . does that mean?" quoth I.
"Look it up" quoth the mentor with a grin.

Pretty shadowsCategory: weather
(E:terry) was out at a client's all day while I sat in the office and studied, watching the street traffic and sunshine. We have pretty shadows from all our pretty plants. A client gave us the neat print of a main street painting.

We have those... next sunny afternoon I'll give it a try.

Your office would make a great setting for a film-noir. All you need are shadows from Venetian blinds.

Bees & Cell phones?Category: ideas
(e:Terry) says he logged 48 hours of work this week; I was there for most of it AND I studied. I'm so sick of this. I slept through most of yesterday - took a little nap that lasted about six hours. At least we went to beer club on Wednesday. Next one is 3/14 - heads up to (e:MrMike) and (e:Uncutsaniflush)! Get your tickets early at Mr. Goodbar. March features stouts.

Why a mobile phone ring may make bees buzz off: Insects infuriated by handset signals
Signals from mobile phones could be partly to blame for the mysterious deaths of honeybees, new research shows.
In the first experiment of its kind, a bee expert placed a mobile phone underneath a hive and then carefully monitored the reaction of the workers.
The bees were able to tell when the handsets were making and receiving calls, and responded by making the high pitched squeaks that usually signal the start of swarming.

Not exactly a "fault" situation! Family before beer, certainly. Best if you can combine them. ;-)

I wonder if we humans will ever really figure out why the honey bees were dying in such numbers.

I had a scheduling conflict. The rents-in-law were in town on Wednesday to celebrate their lovely daughter's birthday (a day or two late because of (e:leetee)'s work schedule). Family before Beer.
Perhaps Ides of March eve will be the charm that gets me to Beer Night.

Those do look nice.... My problem with the Holiday isn't the holiday itself ... It is the social Norms that go along with it.... Say I buy someone a nice thing from Reeds or where ever then that comes with certain expectations like great sex... Or at the very a nice gift back.... See it is nice to give gifts just to give them but Valentines day isn't about that... It is about you have to give something and what ever you give and how you do it is = the love....... So because of these social norms if someone one isn't expecting something from gives a gift it would feel awkward..... In other words if someone just gets you a heart felt card the relationship is over......... Now a hand made Card of glitter might be different cause that takes a lot of time and effort but.....
Nice Flowers hope the holiday treats you well...
