The researchers published their findings for GroupLens, a research lab based out of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think some people thought that they could use [emojis] with little risk and what we found is that it actually is at high risk of miscommunication,\" Hannah Miller, a Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota and one of the authors of the study, said in a phone interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, the researchers found that when people receive the \"face with tears of joy\" emoji — \u003ca href=\"http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2015/11/word-of-the-year-2015-emoji/\">which Oxford Dictionaries declared its word of the year\u003c/a> — some interpret it positively, while others will interpret it negatively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We find that only 4.5 percent of emoji symbols we examined have consistently low variance in their sentiment interpretations,\" the researchers write. \"Conversely, in 25 percent of the cases where participants rated the same rendering, they did not agree on whether the sentiment was positive, neutral, or negative.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This, the researchers found, only gets more complicated when you're texting across platforms, because the same emojis are rendered differently on an iPhone than they are on a Samsung Galaxy, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Via Miller, here's how \"grinning face with smiling eyes\" would look on each platform and how the study's

Who are you kidding? We see thru your trying to undermine the women’s/Lesbian Movement.

"content": "\u003cp>Merle Haggard, a legend in country music and one of the inventors of the Bakersfield (CA) sound and Outlaw Country has died at the age of 79 on his birthday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Haggard was born in Bakersfield, where his family had moved from Oklahoma. He spent time in juvenile detention centers and later at San Quentin, before releasing his first song in 1963. He had 40 #1 hits, won dozens of music awards, and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1994.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loT_pYzi3Vw&nohtml5=False\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Haggard had deep roots in California. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers developed the Bakersfield sound in the 1950s, a honky-tonk style that contrasted sharply with the slicker sound of country music made in Nashville.
