“We connect people. Period. That’s why all the work we do in growth is justified," an executive wrote in 2016.
A top Facebook executive wrote an internal memo in 2016 that defended the company’s growth as necessary and justified, even if the social network was used to bully someone to death or help plan a terrorist attack.
Bosworth acknowledged that he wrote the memo but said he no longer agrees with the post today and “didn’t agree with it even when I wrote it.” He is seen as an outspoken figure at Facebook, the outlet reported, known for being blunt.
The document showcases Facebook executives’ awareness of its power, both good and bad, years before the company was embroiled in controversy over the misuse of user data. Earlier this month, The New York Times reported that the data firm Cambridge Analytica misused the data of 50 million people, prompting calls for Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to testify before Congress.

So...um, I will admit to being slightly nervous about posting a story here. I read the userinfo, and saw that this comm is open to Martha/Doctor friendship and other usage of Martha besides a romantic ship. Do you also accept fics that feature other ships?
The story I wanted to post here is actually a Ten/Rose story (well, sort of. It's a big, epic, action/adventure story wherein the one romance thread happens to be Ten/Rose. It's not an outright romance). Thing is, Martha has a huge role in it, especially in the second story that I'm in the process of writing.
Thank you for thinking we might want to read your story too. It's great to see someone incorporate classic canon as well as Torchwood into an adventure story, but what I can gather from the plotline, the focus is on Rose and that doesn't work for lifeonmartha.
You might want to try posting it to more general oriented communities, like dwfiction or new_who. They are there for such cases are yours, with stories that feature characters from the classic series as well as different new series incarnations.
I'm in the process of pre-writing a fic that involves the plot-line: what if Rose had not been pulled into the parrallel universe? It's a rewrite of series 3, but with Ten, Rose and Martha.
The primary focus is building a friendly relationship between Martha and Rose, and both help each other learn things which make them grow as characters. The other main focus is to look at how series 3 would have gone if Rose was there as well as Martha, meaning a lot of changed plot-lines to the episodes.
It would be a 10/Rose, but it wouldn't be too much of a focus on the story as the main subject plot-line is about Martha and Rose learning to trust one-another and deal with the feelings that they have for the Doctor, though in the end Martha would realise that the Doctor loves Rose and not her - he's just scared of commitment.
I know that, probably for the first five chapters, the fic would just feature Ten and Rose, which would deal with the after-affects of Doomsday and then the plot-line of The Runaway Bride, and after that is dealt with, Martha would come in to the fic and feature prominently throughout the fic until the end.
On some occasions a chapter would focus heavily on Rose, due to circumstances she is in, but most of the chapters would focus around, once Martha is introduced, her relationship with the Doctor and Martha. And vice-a-versa.
Because this fic is being pre-written, I don't know when I would begin posting, but it would be a very long fic, probably around 30 chapters is my best guess.
So, due to the content of what the fic is about, focusing on Rose and Martha (but just sometimes focusing on Rose, for the purpose of a chapter that would expand her character, same would go for Martha as well, and for the Doctor) would I be allowed to post this story here on Life on Martha?
Thank you for considering lifeonmartha when posting your fic, but I have consulted with the other mods, and we all feel that this fic would be too focused on Rose and the Ten/Rose relationship to be appropriate for this community.
Please consider other lj communities that would be more suited for the type of fic you're describing, such as time_and_chips or doctor_plus_one. All of these communities are Doctor/Rose in nature and a better fit for the fic you've described to us.
Hi, I don't usually post in this comm but I've just started a Who fanfic which is from Martha's POV and wondered whether it would be OK to post it here.
The reason I'm asking rather than going ahead and posting is because the fic is very much Ten/Rose-slanted (like pretty much everything I write) and I don't want my posting it to cause any aggro here.
The fic (or the first chapter of it) is here if you want to take a look at it.
Sorry for the delay in responding, I've been dealing with internet issues. Grrr.
Anyway, thanks for the question. I've read the fic and it's really lovely. First person is incredibly difficult and you manage to pull it off.
You could certainly post it here as it does technically fit our guidelines. However, I'm not sure how positive of a reception it would get and I want to be honest about that. There is a very strong feeling among community members against fic that uses Martha as a tool to get The Doctor and Rose back together. It's even spawned a sub-genre title: Yenta fic. While I don't think that it's necessarily a bad thing in the proper context, the lifeonmartha members are looking for fic that highlights Martha in a positive way. While this isn't primarily a shipping comm, any fic that puts Martha second to Rose is going to be given a very critical eye. I'd hate for you to post something in good faith and be unprepared for any negative feelings.
Because of that it would be my opinion that, at this time, this story would be better suited to a more general Who comm such as dwfiction or new_who.
I'm sure you are aware of the sensitivity of fandom at this juncture and I appreciate you taking the time to run this past us. I look forward to a time when such steps are not necessary.
We love stuff like this..post away!
Actually, no there wasn't. As the mod who was leading the chats, it became too much of a chore/responsibility to do every weekend in the off season. Plus, attendance was down and we were basically talking about the same thing every week. I've decided to just have a monthly chat with a corresponding lj thread that will have a definite topic.
When Martha is on TW and DW again, we'll go back to weekly chats for a while.
I suppose I should announce this decision, but I was waiting for it to be closer to the start of the new month, as I'm setting the chats on the first weekend of each month.
Mods have stepped in to deal with the issue and the thread in question was frozen to discourage more negative discussion. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
I posted a report on my trip to the NTAs, I posted it at freema_love. Is it ok to post a link to the original post there, or would you prefer I just post the whole thing here?
Yes, please. I was hoping you'd post here.
Mods, can I suggest you put a direct link to the 1000 drabbles post and the accompanying cheerleading post on the links bar? As more posts get added to the main page those two are going to get buried and the drabble challenge might well lose momentum.
A good idea! Thank you.
Just wanted to let you know that I attempted to post feedback in the drabbles cheering section -- hit the button -- and it didn't appear at the end of that thread. I checked a couple of other threads, thinking I might have accidentally responded to the wrong one, but I can't find it anywhere. So if it turns up in an odd place, feel free to delete.
The open post about the R1 Last of the Time Lords commentary has a link to a locked dl in another comm.
Thanks for the spot - it's been deleted and the poster notified they made a stupid move.
Hello, modly mods. A question: Inspired by your drabbley goodness, the folks on Loves Them All would like to do a drabblethon for offbeat DW pairings. I don't want to compete with the 1,000 Drabbles of Awesome, so I was wondering if you have any idea how long that will be going on. Do you have an end date, or are you going to just let it run its natural course?
At the moment, we're pretty much looking at until we hit the 1000 drabbles.
No idea how long that will take, as it's entirely dependent on how quickly people write.
Quick, but heartfelt, apology for my comment earlier (which was deleted by malaleen and I only read the comment by email a couple of minutes ago.). I had no intention to bash at all and if it came across like I did, then I'm sorry.
Honestly, mistakes like these are easy to make, but with the climate in fandom right now, especially between the Rose and Martha fen, is not very friendly, and the way the way the post was phrased would have not pleased many.
We realize that people want to talk about this new development, but we need to be careful that we don't bash either characters or fen along the way. So to help take care of this need, we've made a flocked discussion thread here for our members that we mods are carefully monitoring.
Please don't be upset over it, as it was quickly caught before anything could go wrong.
I started a new community for Donna Noble called walkinthedust and I was wondering if it would be okay to post an invite here?
The comm is companion friendly because after all, the Doctor loves them all.
That would be fine with us. Go ahead and post about it.

Um, hello mods! I'm brand new to Lifeonmartha, however I've been lurking since early March! Yes, yes, shame on me, I know. But I'm not sure if I'm supposed to introduce myself or anything, so please let me know!
P.S. I love this comm SO much!!
27th-Dec-2007 10:58 pm (UTC) - Re: Brand New!
First of all, welcome to our community! You don't need to introduce yourself, but feel free to jump into discussions we're having, review stories, or make a post yourself, as long as you're following the rules set in our user info.
Hello, I'm asking on behalf of the rest of the smith_n_jones mods, if it would be alright to post about our 1969 Fic-A-Thon, here on lifeonmartha?
After a patent application is filed, the Patent Office assigns an Examiner to review the merits of the invention and determine if a patent should be issued. The formal response of the Patent Examiner is called an Office Action. An applicant (inventor) responds to the Office Action with an Amendment (claim changes) and/or Response to Office Action (arguments why the Examiner’s position is incorrect).
After an Office Action has been made final (generally after the first office action), an applicant must file an RCE and pay a fee to have the Examiner consider further arguments for patentability and allowance of the application.
While the patent Examiner has a certain timeframe to respond to amendments and responses to Office Actions on the merits (3-6 months), no such response period is required for an RCE (Request for Continued Examination). It is not uncommon to have no response after six months. This not only frustrates inventors and patent attorneys, it goes against USPTO goals of compact prosecution and encouraging interviews. It also lessens the value of an interview when the details agreed upon are not recalled by the Examiner months later.
There is some good news, however. If the Patent Examiner takes longer than four months to respond, a patent term adjustment will add more time to the end of the patent term, extending it on a day-by-day basis for PTO-related delays in issuing a patent.
Another piece of good news is that the allowance rate after an RCE is higher than after first office actions on the merits.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a deep-water sound front lot on Bridgers Ave in Topsail Beach. Bridgers is considered THE street to be on in Topsail Beach and this particular lot has never been built upon. Nicely contoured and inviting. Lot is near the end of Bridgers so it is a quiet with very little traffic. Deep water assures good depth for most any boat. Come take a look at this lot build the home of your dreams!
The twins hit the official trail little more than 24 hours ago, and they have already covered some 153 miles with their successful arrival in Rainy Pass at 2:00pm AK time this afternoon. They were reported in 33rd and 34th place and are each running 15 dogs. They dropped one dog each in the prior checkpoint of Finger Lake.
I am neither concerned nor surprised by the fact that they have dropped one dog at this point. This first section of trail has been hard, fast, and warm which can easily cause problems with dehydration and overheating as well as shoulder or wrist problems. With regard to the latter, think about the anatomy of a dog... their legs are designed to go forward and backward. Icy conditions can sometimes cause one of their legs to shoot out sideways, and dogs just aren't designed to do the splits. That kind of move can strain shoulder muscles, and I know the twins would much rather leave a dog safely behind at a checkpoint than risk pressing on, especially given some of the highly technical portions of trail coming up.
Although I was traveling during much of the race to this point and not glued to the GPS tracker, I have a pretty good idea of what the race was like for them so far. After pulling out of Willow, they likely tried to keep a slower pace as the afternoon sun finally turned to dusk and they worked to cover the 42 miles to Yentna Station checkpoint. Their sleds were fully loaded pulling out of Willow, so there were no drop bags waiting for them in Yentna. They spent about 5 minutes grabbing straw and Heet (the flammable liquid in the yellow bottles that they carry with them to fuel their portable cookers for boiling water and thawing food on the trail). I also suspect they stopped to camp for a few hours outside of Yentna.
The next checkpoint of Skwentna was also a brief, 5 minute stop... just long enough to load up on lots of dog food from drop bags and hit the trail again. While the next checkpoint of Finger Lake is a sanctioned dog drop, it is not a drop bag location, so the twins would have loaded up in Skwentna to make sure they had adequate provisions to cover the 70 miles before the next drop bag checkpoint.
Sounds intense, right? And with precious little snow on the trail this year to facilitate braking, I can imagine it was one hairy ride. We can breath a sigh of relief knowing that is now behind the twins.
As to weather so far, the Iditarod Weather Center reports continued warm, mild temps in the low-to-mid 30s, but with an increasing chance of very welcome snow.
The 2 current leaders in the race have recently pulled out of Rohn, and another 7 teams are into Rohn. We have also seen our first team scratch from the race. Veteran Cindy Gallea pulled out in Skwentna, although I do not yet see why. Regardless, we wish her and her dogs a very safe journey back to their home kennel.

I am only one individual American with no special position of government, political or financial power, but I represent a much broader power base that you may not understand or appreciate. While you may be receiving mixed signals from our current leaders, it is critical that you do not underestimate the American people, our commitment to individual liberty and our willingness to back up our convictions with whatever sacrifice is necessary. So, I am glad to have this opportunity to respond to your communication to me and my fellow Americans in your New York Times Op-Ed.
It is both ironic and fortuitous that you have chosen to exercise the most sacred right of all Americans, to communicate to us, the God given right to free speech. While we often take this and other critical rights, protecting individual freedom, for granted, it is the first example of why America is an exceptional country. We are exceptional because will fight just as hard for your right to free speech as we will for our own.
Unlike any other country in the world, America was founded on a set of ideals and laws permanently enshrined in our founding documents; the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and The Bill of Rights. These laws spell out very clearly that “we the people” are in charge of our own destiny and they protect us from tyranny, even tyranny from our own government.
It is in this spirit of the first Amendment, that I welcome your explanation of your position on Syria, the United Nations, the prospect of America taking a military action against the Syrian government and even your lecture to us about the dangers of promoting American exceptionalism. I welcome this discussion, because in a free society a healthy open debate leads to better decisions and greater progress.
You obviously understand and respect the power of free speech, as you adroitly exercised it in your direct communication to the American public. It is a powerful force which is essential to democracy, but which can also be manipulated by the political masters of Machiavellian deception. Perhaps you can demonstrate your good intentions by having the courage and courtesy to extend my response to you, directly to the Russian public.
As you have witnessed, by the reaction of the American people to the prospect of another military intervention in the Middle East, Americans by nature are a peace loving people. But, please don’t make the mistake of interpreting our resistance to a poorly thought out plan, being promoted by our political leaders, as any indication of a lack of willingness to make whatever sacrifices that are necessary to protect against clear and present threats to the security interests of the United States and its allies.
You make a lot of very good points about why America should not make a military strike against Syria. Many of us, like you, do not believe that it makes sense for America to intervene in a foreign civil war where there are no clear objectives and where there is no clear and direct threat to the security interests of the US. It is not our role to be the policeman of the world, or to punish all the bad actors. However, it is our role to defend freedom and democracy whenever and wherever we can, without forcing it on people who are not ready for it, don’t understand it and don’t want it.
While our elected political leaders have not provided you, us or the many countries comprising the Mid-East region with a clear and unambiguous position, let me be very clear about the commitment of the American people. We will defend Israel as if it were Alaska. Any threats to Israel by Iran or any other country will be considered a direct threat to us and will be met with the full force and will of the American people.
There are many ways to advance the cause of freedom and military action should be a last consideration. We must be very careful with when and how we exercise the great power that we have. We prefer the Theodore Roosevelt foreign policy of “talk softly and carry a big stick”. In the meantime, we are committed to the policy of peace through strength, and we fully support building our military strength.
As the leader of the free world, America has an exceptional responsibility to protect and to advance the cause of individual freedom throughout the world. We remain the best hope in the world for the survival of individual freedom. We are an exceptional country not just because we are free but because we have demonstrated time after time over history, our willingness to sacrifice our own lives so that others throughout the world can enjoy the same freedoms that have made America a great country.
