Board Post, June 28 2012 (a day late)

 

Posted a day late because Wimbledon and the Euro 2012 have a distracting effect.

Regular Business

Don't forget to send in items that you want included in This week in The Slacktiverse June 30/July 1 2012.

The three sections of the weekend post are:

The Blogaround

Any denizen of the Slacktiverse who has posted an article to their own website during since the previous weekend post is invited to send a short summary of that article along with its permalink to TBAT. That summary and link will be included in the next weekend blogaround. This will help to keep members of our community aware of the many excellent websites hosted by other members.

In Case You Missed This

Readers of The Slacktiverse can send short summaries of, and permalinks to, articles that they feel might be of interest to other readers.

Things You Can Do

Anyone who knows of a worthy cause or important petition should send a short description of the petition/cause along with its url to TBAT.

Deadlines

Please email all submissions to slackmods at gmail dot com. The deadline this week will be 2000 GMT on Saturday.

Urgent or time-sensitive announcements will be posted immediately rather than being held for the next regular "This Weekend" post.

For "Things you can do":

This is for a longtime (10 years!) online friend of mine who's gotten a seriously rough deal in life, and could really use the help. She has a beautiful daughter and really wants to be a good mother, but she needs to be stable to be the best mother she can be. She's not asking for much relative to her needs, only enough to fund a month or two's worth of meds and psych visits. Anything you can donate would be very much appreciated by both Bethanie and me.
