A couple of days ago, I was bumping along on line. I am very like a Manatee. Not so much navigating as going from plant to plant.
My chief thought: I sure hope I don’t get slashed by a passing motor boat. Really.
And what should I discover? Forty lost posts, just floating there. These were posts lost in the great Network Solutions debacle and presumed lost forever.
I am no useful detective in these matters but it looks like a French outfit called FeedShow reproduced the posts.
I will never speak ill of the French again. Especially some guy called Thierry at Feedshow, to whom I am very, very grateful.
What remains lost are the many comments on these posts. And for this we may thank those scoundrels at Network Solutions.

Ana, it’s really odd. This cache of posts represents virtually all the posts that were missing. A very welcome coincidence. If that’s what it is. (And if it isn’t what in the dickens is it and why this like this?)
Hello Grant
Sorry to hear of your problems which prompts me to take stock on backup and such like. I’ve been putting off changing my blog template not wanting to break things, though your difficulties have been far more pronounced and clearly beyond your direct control.
Noting your blog’s focus and mention of ‘intersections’ the conceptual framework known as “Hodges Health Career – Care Domains – Model” may be of interest?
http://hodges-model.blogspot.com/
There are many intersections represented here across the model’s four care or knowledge domains:

The blog includes a bibliography and many posts that indicate the potential scope of the model.
Peace and all the best for 2011 and beyond…
