Status Update: YouTube is Still Broken - POSTED ON: May 22, 2012
My DietHobby Channel at the YouTube website is still broken. So far I haven't been able to get in touch with a human employee of YouTube. Unless YT's automated system terminates my channel before then … in 2 weeks my automated suspension, which was set in place by the Hackers, should be up. When that happens, even without YouTube's help, I should be able to go into my YouTube account to take down the offending Nazi videos, and see if my own videos are still operational there. In the meantime, here at my own DietHobby website, everything except for the videos, is operational. YouTube is a video hosting website which stores the videos for my use here. I don't know if my videos are still in my YT account or not. However, I have all of my original videos backed up on my own hard drive, so even if they are no longer on YouTube, I can upload them again, either on YouTube, or on some other video hosting website. ALL of my videos will definitely appear here on this DietHobby website again. This might take a few weeks or a month, but this DietHobby website will eventually be as good, or better, than before. If any of my YouTube grandbabies are reading this, and wish to talk to me, it's okay for you to leave a comment for grandma here.
DietHobby Hacked - POSTED ON: May 19, 2012
Hi all my friends, and my youtube grandbabies. My youtube DietHobby channel and my diethobby.com website was hacked this Saturday morning around 9 a.m. pacific time, and for the present my youtube channel and my videos are inoperable. Although my DietHobby.com website was damaged, I believe I will be able to fix it soon. Hopefully, youtube will help me get my DietHobby youtube channel and my 312 deleted videos straightened out in the next few weeks. I will do my best to respond to those of you who contact me, and remember, in the grand scheme of life, this is a relatively small thing.
Love you all.
Encouragement & Support - POSTED ON: May 17, 2012
DietHobby is a place of encouragement and support. I need encouragement and support as I make my way through Life's path. This is why DietHobby exists. I share many of my thoughts and feelings here, in writing and in videos. My daily eating choices, and my behavior with food … is an ongoing part of my life. It is a thread that weaves its way throughout my life, and I look at dieting as one of my ongoing hobbies .. which is simply a part of my total Lifestyle. My way of thinking is connected to my way of eating. I am the one who chooses what I think about. I am the one who decides where to put my focus. I am the one who has the power to direct my mind toward the positive. DietHobby is a way to help me do that. Part of helping myself is to share my thoughts with you. Perhaps you will find some of these writings and videos encouraging and supportive to you as you travel, in your own individual way, down the path that Life has put before you. The way that I choose to eat, doesn't have to be the way you choose to eat. What works for me may be different than what works for you. But, perhaps you will find it helpful to take in my information, and shift it through your mind, accepting some things, rejecting other things. Blending some of the things you read and hear at DietHobby together with your own valuable truths might be exactly what you need to move you toward your own individual Life goals. DietHobby already has a great deal of content. You can find many things here in this website. … and as I live through the days and weeks, I continue to think, so More will be coming. Look around, get it know DietHobby, see if it is something that will fit into your support structure. Take what you like, and leave the rest.
Happy Birthday - POSTED ON: May 16, 2012
Today is my Husband's birthday, and sometimes he comes here to look at what I have written. Perhaps he will do that today. Just in case, I'm leaving a message here for him. Everyone who comes here will have a birthday this year, so also consider this as a birthday message to each of you.
New DietHobby Features - POSTED ON: May 14, 2012
This HOME page continues to feature my new blog articles, but it now also has a slide-show feature which directs attention to my four different video series:
The video section in the RESOURCES category also contains all of the videos of each video series. So, there are now several convenient, but different, ways to view them.
Another new feature here at DietHobby is a thumbnail beside each video title, which adds color and interest to this site. This also makes it a little easier to find the location of a particular video.
Notice that, at present, DietHobby is advertisement-free, and clicking the pictures on the right side of the page will lead you to the corresponding section in this website. Click around the site and look at these new features. I think you'll agree with me that DietHobby is Looking Good.
I am in the process of putting 176 words of wisdom videos into the new Words of Wisdom Section. Although these videos are already located here on DietHobby in the video section of the RESOURCES category, in order to index them on the Words of Wisdom page, each one of them must be entered as a Blog……and every blog created, automatically generates an e-mail…
So until I've finished that process, subscribers will be getting several e-mail notices of new blogs every day. If you hate getting extra daily e-mails, unsubscribe for a month or so (until I've finished that time-consuming job), then re-subscribe.
Thanks for sharing DietHobby with me. I hope you like these changes as much as I do.
