For new questions please post at magento.stackexchange.com, the community-run support site for the Magento community. We will be providing updates on the new forum solution soon. For questions or concerns please email email@example.com.
Can I have a customer select a referrer during checkout or registration. I've seen that with other cart software; that a user can select: "Where did you hear from us: Google"… and make that field required.
For most web shop owners with returning customers, it is probably better to have the "Where did you hear from us" in the customer registration section (as a text field or dropdown).
I would not slow up the checkout process uneccesary, and if the field "Where did you hear from us" should be made required, it should not be asked (or required) a returning customer. - Finally, if you don't need the information for any useful marketing research, don't ask.
Maybe we can hope for that magento comes with some easy configurable input fields for the customer registration section in the version 1.1.
I would like to have a text input field in checkout that asks for a referrer ID (i will assing IDs manually to previous customers). It doesn't need to be mandatory. just very simple and the ID needs to show up in the order info so i can keep track of it. simple question ( i think) but my programming skills are non existent… thanks in advance.

Verizon HTC Thunderbolt - Transferring SIM card
Hello everyone, I am new to this forum! I am not very phone smart, so I have a question that may seem pretty basic. My Thunderbolt has gone down the crapper pretty quickly in the last couple of months, and I need a new phone to hold me over until I switch plans next year (getting married yay!) I have been looking on Swappa and would like to buy a Samsung Galaxy S3. From what I have read, I understand that my SIM card is too big for the S3, but if I cut down the card, will it work in the new S3 for me? Or, should I look at another phone to hold me over for a year? I appreciate your responses!
Re: Verizon HTC Thunderbolt - Transferring SIM card
It should but you could just go to or call verizon and get a new one.

Re: Verizon HTC Thunderbolt - Transferring SIM card
DISCLAIMER: I have not tried this.
Step one: Buy something like this - SIM Card Adapter - 3 Pieces - Apple iPhone 5S
(2) Go to a Verizon store and ask if they can activate a new nano-sim for you. You'll need to find a rep who has at least a little tech knowledge. You want them to understand wht you are trying to do.
(3) Put the SIM into the adapters and see if they work in your TBolt.
(4) Go find your "temp" phone ("rebound" phone?)
(5) You can then also use the SIM in your Thunderbolt as necessary.************************************************

Galaxy S3 drops calls. Don't buy it. Get an HTC One or an S4.

Re: Verizon HTC Thunderbolt - Transferring SIM card
I am in the process of doing same thing after buying used s3 to replace my thunderbolt.
In the past, i could use the old sim in the new phone (verizon to verizon). Will verizon clone my sim card, or will I be issued a new ISMI number? Will that require I get a new contract (want to stay with my grandfather's unlimited one).

Hip-Hop's Herstory
Hip-hop has sometimes been criticized for its portrayal of women, but female MCs also have played a role in the genre, from its beginnings to what it is today. Tricia Rose, professor of Africana Studies at Brown University and the author of Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America, talks with Farai Chideya.
Copyright © 2007 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
FARAI CHIDEYA, host:
This is NEWS & NOTES. I'm Farai Chideya.
Surviving the streets is one refrain in hip-hop music. But female emcees also have to stay on top in a mostly male genre. Later, we'll hear from top female rappers.
But first, here to give us a little context, we've got Tricia Rose. She's a professor of Africana studies at Brown University and also the author of books, including "Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America." Tricia, welcome.
Professor TRICIA ROSE (History and Africana Studies, Brown University; Author, "Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America"): Thanks for having me.
CHIDEYA: So who would you say was the first female rapper to really break the ice?
Prof. ROSE: Well, probably Roxanne Shante was, if not the earliest, certainly one of them who really, in creating the answer record format in hip-hop where women answered back through her song, "Roxanne's Revenge." That was a real turning point.
CHIDEYA: Well, it sounds like even from then, women were responding to a male archetype. Has that continued as hip-hop has evolved?
Prof. ROSE: Well, it's actually - it's changed a lot but this element of women having to sort of edge their way in and do extra work to prove that they're credible as emcees but also with lyricists, right, because being an emcee isn't the same as being a lyricist and actually writing the rhymes.
That's always been an issue and they've always had to grapple with the sexuality, the presumption that they had to defend their own sexuality. Women's expressions, especially black women's expression has often been contained this way.
CHIDEYA: Later, we're going to talk - I mean, not later but very shortly - with rappers MC Lyte and Monie Love. But let's look at some of the different archetypes of women in hip-hop. You've got someone like Queen Latifah, who now primarily acts. You have Lil' Kim, who has talked very openly about her need to be accepted physically. You have rappers like Eve. What different archetypes are there in the female hip-hop community over time?
Prof. ROSE: Well, I mean, I think it's difficult to do it across the whole, you know, history of hip-hop in the time we have, I imagine. But one of the things that's important to remember is that women have to address in hip-hop, at some point, their relationship to sexuality, whether or not they're choosing the Lil' Kim path, which is to try to be in a sense a sexual vixen, almost like, a rhyming, you know, stripper for all intent and purposes. Or whether or not they're playing the tough gangster girl who is empowered by her control and a certain kind of masculinity either - you know, either in terms of her sexuality or just her general masculinity and her toughness.
So there's also a history of empowerment, someone like a group like Salt-N-Pepa, that took sexuality and tried to turn the tables in an empowering way, and so did MC Lyte. She was known, and Monie Love, are both known for that very well.
That archetype is pretty much outside of commercial hip-hop today for women emcees. Of the underground is another story. But for the ones anyone's really got to know, that archetype is almost impossible to market today. You pretty much have to be a hypersexual or somehow hyper-tough. And it's a very limiting framework.
CHIDEYA: So Tricia, before we bring in MC Lyte and Monie Love, do you think that we've actually slid back in time where women have less options to express ourselves in hip-hop?
Prof. ROSE: In commercial hip-hop, absolutely yes, without a shadow of a doubt. In other words, the emergence of hip-hop as a mainstream, commercially viable form further marginalized and under-appreciated the complexity of women's participation. It gave more space to men but it also limited males' representation. But it gave them more space overall. And women emcees are under an enormous amount of pressure to fit a very narrow mold.
CHIDEYA: All right. Tricia Rose, Brown University, author of "Black Noise: Rap Music and Black Culture in Contemporary America."

Only a quick post, today. I just realised I never showed you guys my onesie from the PJ party I went to the other day! though the one I'm wearing is actually called a Kigurumi, it's like a japanese onesie without the feet and it's so, so cosy! Right now I'm meant to be at our normal Tuesday RPG sesh, but thanks to a big lorry setting on fire and then exploding in Newport, the M4 is closed which means we can't get back to play in time :c

Day 360: $1.00 a Day Makes Giving Every Day Possible
Oct 11th
I am a brand new Mom of a baby boy. I also have a 4 year old, 2 dogs and a husband. When I started 365give I thought giving and blogging everyday would be easy. Even if the opportunity to adopt of second child over the course my 365 day giving challenge presented itself I would have still have time to blog, tweet, FB but most importantly GIVE. It has become very apparent that it`s not possible to blog every day but giving is my passion and I believe if you are truly committed you can find a way every day.
With just 5 days left of 365 days of giving, and over 365 ways I have given back to the world Philanthroper has become one of my favourite ways to give. It is fast, easy and effective and my donation is part of a group contribution that is creating great change all over the world.
Day 360: Give 360
Winter is almost here. The days are getting shorter and colder. What if you didn`t have a pair of dry clean socks to wear on your feet to get your through the cold days? We all know if your feet are cold your hole body is cold.
Today`s Philanthroper deal was to make a $1.00 donation (or more if you choose) to Hannah`s Socks. This organization was inspired by a child that was willing to give up her own socks for someone that basically didn`t have a pair. That inspiration has now turned into a donation of over 355.000 pairs of socks to those in need. Sometimes we think that giving has to be complicated or you have to have a lot of money. Hannah`s Socks started by one little girl offering to give up her own socks to a man that needed them more than she did. They didn`t do it alone but with helping hands and donations from so many they are able to support people with the simple `give` of a pair of socks. Nothing complicated about a pair of socks.
Philanthroper gave me the opportunity to give today. For just a $1.00 I was part of a contribution that was $427 (an still growing) because we all donated what we could.
Everyday Philanthroper offers you a new way to give for just a $1.00 donation. Sign up, get the daily giving deal sent to your mailbox and every day you have the opportunity to give. Fast, easy and effective. No excuses not to give.
Time Commitment: 10 seconds
Cost: $1.00
Day 339: Volunteering Turns Your Passion into Commitment
Sep 16th
Do you have a passion for a specific cause?
Maybe it's hunger, homlessness, child abuse, animal rescue, disaster relief or our planet. If you want to really turn your passion into a lifetime commitment- volunteer.
Day 339: Give 339
I recently volunteered at Mission Possible which I posted about on Day 308: Passion to Purpose. I have been a long time advocate and supporter of the homeless for many years. I volunteered for over a decade in Toronto before moving to Vancouver. Since becoming a Mother (just 4 years now) I have found it challenging to find the time to volunteer. Buy spending just one morning at Mission Possible it made my passion for helping the homeless and marginalized turn back to a commitment to make a difference.
With the fall weather on us it is time to clean out the closets and prepare for the cool days. My husband and I normally drop our cloths down at the local Thrift Store as a donation but this time I wanted our gently used clothing to go directly to the people that need it most. No purchasing required. At Mission Possible every Tuesday morning volunteers assist people to choose cloths from their "boutique" that they may not otherwise be able to afford. They can use reuse anything from cloths, shoes, accessories, bags, boots, and blankets.
My volunteer time with them may have been short and sweet but I was reminded I must do what I can to help. My cloths get given directly to people that need them and they are reused (good for the planet) by someone that will appreciate them.
If you have a passion for a cause go spend some time with what ever organization will make you a life long supporter. It's easy to write a cheque ( a little old school mind you) or make an online donation but to go and see how hard all the charity organizations work to help so many makes your4 time and money seem so much more real.
Who have you volunteered for lately? Did it change your commitment to a cause?
Time Commitment: 1/2 to drive and drop the cloths
Cost: 0

Day 335: What if 50 cents Could Change the World – Period?
Sep 12th
The countdown is on! Exactly 30 days to completing 365 days of giving. I'm excited to be almost finished this journey. With just 30 days left I have some "gives" I really want to complete to help bring awareness to organizations that truly deserve it. Today is one of those days. 50cents.Period.
Day 335: Give 335
I could put a warning on this post saying it's for women only but everyone needs to understand the challenges women go through all over the world each month when they get their menstruation. Yes, their period. Shhhh – don't say it to loud someone may hear you!
All over the world the word "period" has been made into a bad word. As young girls we are taught to suck it up, take some Midol and just pretend it's not happening. It's not discussed in mixed company. It's meant for a girl chat only. In many places around the world companies have given us every luxury to help keep the "situation" under control each month.
What if you lived in a rural place in the world where buying tampons or pads (other words we don't say out loud!) was not as easy as popping down to a 7eleven when you weren't prepared. What if getting the basic protection needed was not available or even worse – not affordable.
How would you function each and every month?
- Would you miss work?
- Would you miss a date?
- Would you miss school?
Girls around the world miss school for this exact reason. One week every month because they don't have the protection they need to sit on a classroom. If there is one thing I have learned over the last 335 days it is this. Educate all the women of the world and there will be a dramatic positive change.
Should getting your period hold women back from the education that could help "be the change we want to see in the world?"
50cents.Period. founded by the Women in Red are a group of dedicated women that believe "girls must not have their educations and life opportunities curtailed because of their inability to have access to these fundamental supplies."
How can you help? 50cents goes a long way in India. "50 cents buys a month of sanitary supplies and an uninterrupted education."
- $5 sponsors 10 girls for one month
- $10 sponsors 20 girls for one month
- $25 provides supplies for 50 girls for one month
- $50 sponsors a rural High School, averaging 100 girl students for one month
- $600 provides sanitary supplies for one school for an entire year
- $1,000 will build a basic toilet
Could you imagine your child not having a toilet at their school? I don't have an extra $1000 I can donate today to build a toilet but I can do something. I made a donation today that will make an impact. Do you have $5.00 or $10.00 you can donate? From the facts above you know what an impact it will make to another women in the world.
Time Commitment: 1 minute to online donate
Cost: $10.00

in Food
When you hear raw food do you say, "Ugh." Think again! Apples and berries are raw food. So are carrots, lettuce and tomatoes. Question is, how do you make an entire meal out of raw food that is not tasteless and boring? To answer this, our guest, Chef Andy from Juiceataria (Juice Bar and Raw Food Vegan Café), will be in our Family Food Experts Kitchen to share his amazing recipes, his raw food ideas, all of which are full of flavor. How do I know this? For one, originally he was an Italian chef with an Italian Restaurant, Talia's Tuscan Table so he is gifted at using fresh herbs and spices for seasoning. Better yet, I go to Juiceataria at least once a week for a smoothie, slice of pizza, lasagna or his to-die-for Gelato! I admit, I used to avoid raw food meals. No more! Chef Andy had changed my thinking and he will change yours too! Co-host Carolina will further encourage you with why eating living raw food is a healthy decision. To support this truth, Chef Andy will tell you his personal story of why he turned to raw food to save his daughter's life.
Come into our Family Food Experts Kitchen with Chef Andy, Carolina and me as devour some simply yummy raw food! Thursday, 1pm ET, on W4WN.com and W4CY.com.

Lichen planus is a chronic skin condition. It causes itchy, flat, scaly patches on the wrists, legs, trunk, or genitals. It can also affect the inside of the mouth and vagina. There it resembles a white spider web. It may ulcerate. Rarely, it can also become cancerous. The scalp and fingernails can also be affected. It may become wart-like in thickness. Lichen planus may continue on and off for months or years. Scratching makes this condition worse.
Not much is known about the cause. It is possibly an immunologic reaction due to genetic factors. It mat be brought on by certain medications or diseases.

Students in Sharon White's second block World History class at Lugoff-Elgin High School concluded their study of the Enlightenment Period by attending White's Chocolate House.

For the back page, students wrote advertisements for newly developed products. During the chocolate house, students shared information with each other to create five new articles for the inside of their papers. "I had a great time getting and sharing info with ...

If the Philadelphia Eagles are going to replace defensive coordinator Juan Castillo, it does not look like it will be with former Rams Head Coach Steve Spagnulo. Multiple outlets are reporting that Steve Spagnulo is set to join the New Orleans Saints.
Spagnulo has been linked to the Philadelphia Eagles since he was still the head coach of the St. Louis Rams. Spagnulo, who used to work for the Eagles, has maintained a house in Philadelphia, and has many other links to the area (his wife is from Philly.)
When first year defensive coordinator Juan Castillo was on the hot seat, fairly or not, rumors began to fly that Andy Reid would bring in Spagnulo, a former Super Bowl winning defensive coordinator for the Giants to replace Castillo.
All of those rumors began to fray over the past couple of weeks as Spagnulo became a candidate for other jobs. Spags interviewed in New Orleans and will reportedly accept the job there.
In the meantime, Juan Castillo's future still hasn't been decided. While the season has been over for the Eagles for a couple of weeks, coach Andy Reid has yet to speak about the team's future. This has led to many speculating that the embattled defensive coordinator will not return for a second season.
If Reid's plan was to bring in Spagnulo, it was just thwarted.

Opportunities abound for lawyers in small communities
Written by Michael LitchfieldRetirement plan accuracy: overstated rates of return and false hopes
Written by Alan ActonA few months ago when a Canadian research group exposed the GhostNet, a brazen cyber-espionage network, the story briefly made headlines. Most of us marvelled at the ingenuity and nefariousness of the alleged perpetrator, the Chinese government.
It was, in many ways, a chance encounter that took Robert Petit on a career path spanning Rwanda to Cambodia.
Our cover story this month deals with Louis Pasquin, the first lawyer in Canada to be found guilty of gangsterism. During his trial, it was revealed Pasquin used his home to help a couple of drug dealers and even conspired with them to traffic drugs.

Canada's government keeps missing the mark when it comes to dealing with drugs.
The following is an excerpt from Patrick D. Kelly's new book Rainmaking 101: How to Grow Your Client Base & Maximize Your Income:
Millions of people embark on professional careers as CPAs, engineers, insurance agents, financial advisers, bankers, lawyers, and corporate managers only to discover that being technically proficient is just one element of being successful. Few receive any formal training in selling their services and themselves. For most, developing business is a sink-or-swim proposition.

January Jones Announces She's Pregnant!
January Jones is pregnant! She was out with a friend in LA on Tuesday, just a few days before sharing the exciting news today. The actress released a statement through her rep saying, "January Jones is happy to announce that she is expecting her first child this Fall." She didn't provide any further details about the father of the baby, but she is apparently looking forward to life as a single mom. January will soon start promoting X-Men: First Class ahead of its Summer release, and now she'll be stepping out for press with a growing bump. Congrats to January on her happy baby news!

Sneaky timing the announcement around the royal wedding mayhem. I wonder if the baby has a famous father- her and Jason spilt in late Jan.- or if she made the choice to become a mom independently.

I bet she'll be the type of pregnant woman who barely gains a pound and looks like she neatly stuffed a basketball up her top.

It appears his one ebay account has only 7 feedback in one year out 600 odd where the one below reflects a bit more of the truth I suppose which isnt so good :-( 98.3 and up to a month waiting. Really fancied that heli too. (not the one below, the wasp x3v)

The heli Market is a nightmare and a newb can only really make there mind up by reviews and videos. They all seem pretty good and it looks ultra stable in hover. I flew 4 ch heli (Ikarus piccolo, real dog) 10yrs ago and havent since. I have a small budget to have another play and wanted cp. The fbl looks great and it was between this and the walkera master cp. The stripping servos put me off the master as this will be an occasional hobby. From he mind field of helis and constant conflicting advice of shops I stumped or pot luck from my own investigations.
I'm not quite sure what your question is or answer, are you saying these are rubbish? Are you saying these sellers are untrustworthy? |
Nov 23, 2012, 03:13 PM | |
All RTF flybarless helis strip servos. Servos take lots of punishment with no flybar to manage movement. You will need decent metal gear servos regardless of which model you chose.
I found the tail of the Wasp V3 to be very fragile and problematic. I do not know if this has been fixed with the X3V. Walkera churns models very often, so the availability of the Master CP, in current form, may be short. It also uses motors from the V400D02 which are crap. I am not a fan of Walkera and have sold all of my Walkera gear, but given a choice between these two models, I would take the Master CP. Servos and motors can be easily replaced or upgraded. |

Given your desires, location, previous experience and budget constraints, I would go for this: http://www.goodluckbuy.com/f450-quad...assembled.html.
and this: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...Firmware_.html They are durable, easy to get parts for and outperform any FP heli. They will also manage a bit of wind. |

Thanks balr I will check that out.
Captjac, one like you on every forum, unhelpful, sarcastic and rude, glad you have mastered your trade, maybe the beginners part of this forum isn't the best place for you to post your very helpful, encouraging advice. A simple, I would steer clear and practice more on a newer 4ch heli before moving up. 170 british pounds btw |

You have picked a time to re-enter this hobby where advances in electronics have all but killed the conventional FP heli. Flight control boards for quads and flybarless control systems for helis are dirt cheap and very good. The difference between a flybarless FP heli and CP heli is basically one servo, the head designs are almost identical. Consequently, there's not much incentive to make an FP model. The downside of flybarless helis is very abrupt and immediate response, frequent servo damage and relatively high cost.
The only larger FP helis being made are by toy companies and feature 45° offset flybar designs with lots of latency for ultra-stability, but very poor movement authority. They are very cheap, so their gentle flight characteristics and cost make them a big hit with the current generation of beginners, but no one else. There are better options for learning that are much more cost effective. Micro helis and quads are really the learning tools of choice because of their durability. Quads have really taken off in the last 6 months because of their performance. Flips, loops and rolls are relatively easy. |

Balr, great info, much appreciated.
Another heli two local shop recommended was a blade 130x with a dx6i controller. Is this a step too far? The shops didn't think so though they are trying to make a sale. No sure if you know my old heli, piccolo but it was extremely hard to fly. It took me 3 months to hove it ! I ended up doing circuits but nothing more. It was awful outside but it is quite big in today's standards (about 50cm blade dia) Maybe I am trying to run before I can walk, though I keep getting told if you take our time it's possible to go cp? Thanks again |

I am familiar with the old Picolo, Hummingbird, HBFP design; I owned 7 of them. If you can fly one of those you can fly anything. I like the 130X a lot. I'm a big fan of LHS support and parts availability and own several Blade models (MSR, MCPx, MQx). But, I would have thought it was outside of your budget and on the small side. Anything you buy today is going to require you to get used to instant response with considerable movement. But, it shouldn't be too difficult.

Stayed here one night pre-cruise in June.
Very quick check-in.
Room was clean with small areas of water damage noticeable - small kitchen area, table and chairs, desk area, pull out couch, coffee table and big credenza with huge TV. Bedroom had plenty of closet and storage space - huge bathroom.
Corner view of ocean - large windows.
We had issues waiting for housekeeping to come make up the sleeper sofa - had to call twice - given that it after 9:30pm - we expected a small delay..... lady that finally came was very nice and very quick to get the couch set up, so in the end no problems. Also called next day for soap that never came - luckily we had some packed for cruise- so again no huge deal - just little things.
Staff we met was always friendly.
We would stay here again.

of Soil, Water, and Climate
PI: Michael J. Sadowsky
Minnesota Mississippi Metagenome Project
The Mississippi River is one of the earth's largest and most important waterways, yet we know little about the most common organisms populating this system, its microbiota. This project proposes to provide a more complete understanding of the impact of human activity on the Mississippi River, with the goal of improving water quality and improving public understanding of the importance of this river to the well-being of the people and industries in the Mississippi watershed. In this project, the researchers will produce an extensive database cataloging the biodiversity and functions of microbial life in the Mississippi River in Minnesota using the new tool of metagenomic analyses.

THE Mets lost a first baseman yesterday but Lynda Olerud gained a full-time grandson. She gets to have 15-month-old Garrett Olerud living only 20 minutes away from her.
''There's nothing like your own parents, when you want to go away on a short trip, or just for the afternoon.'' she said yesterday.
She would not celebrate blatantly because the Olerud family has only good things to say about New York and Toronto, where her son, John, has played his entire major league career.
It is a huge continent. Even in first class, the spine starts to ache somewhere over the Dakotas, and then there are the time-zone changes, living out of a suitcase, the deep need to see loved ones.
Seattle is a destination city for thousands and thousands of young people who have heard the siren call of the Internet and the coffee bars on a misty night and the views from many a hillside. For John and Kelly Olerud, it was about parents and grandparents, church and home.
Any fan who observed John Olerud's calm persona in his three years at Shea Stadium would understand that the Oleruds never tried to hold up the Mets for extra millions, for an extra year on the contract, as a payoff for the separation. Olerud missed a stable life near his family around Bellevue, Wash., just east of Seattle. ''He's a real family man,'' Lynda Olerud said yesterday. ''I'll tell you, it was an agonizing situation. There is such charisma in New York, we were treated so well. John is very loyal, and I think he does not like disappointing people.''
The son held off his decision because he truly enjoyed the city and the people and the team. His manager in Toronto, Cito Gaston, had made the bizarre prophecy that John would be so unsettled by the rowdy demeanor of Met fans that he might retire at an early age. In fact, Olerud lived in Manhattan and occasionally rode the No. 7 elevated train, the easiest way to go at rush hour, and he smiled wryly at the intensity of the big city.
''I have never had so much fun as in New York,'' his mother said yesterday. ''John and Bobby Valentine just clicked right away. The infield.''
For a while last summer, overheated Mets fans were claiming that Olerud, Edgardo Alfonzo, Rey Ordonez and Robin Ventura were the best defensive infield in history.
Well, New Yorkers do tend to be grandiose. The Oleruds are the opposite. They hark back to the placid Norwegians who survived the plains and the Dirty Thirties of the Depression. Some of them stayed in their respective Lake Wobegons, while others found their way to salt water again.
The family's roots are deep in Seattle. John Olerud, the father, caught for seven years in the minor leagues and went to medical school and became a dermatologist. Yesterday the son recalled how excited they were in 1977, the first year of the Mariners, when he turned 9.
''I remember they had the Pepsi Junior Mariners, where you got a certain number of tickets and a batting glove,'' the son said yesterday, recalling that his first favorite player was Bruce Bochte, a .282 hitter who played five years in Seattle.
There is a sense of security in being close to each other. When John was a baseball star at Washington State, he fell down one day while running a lap. His father grabbed the first plane to the school and slept in his son's hospital room for a week, until the specialists discovered an aneurysm, which was repaired in a six-hour operation.
''John has been very lucky in a lot of ways,'' the mother said. Up to now, they considered themselves lucky just to be in touch long distance.
''My husband and I went to spring training,'' Lynda Olerud said yesterday. ''With the satellite dish, we could watch every game, and there is always the telephone. Kelly came back five or six times a season.''
With the arrival of Garrett Olerud, the mother admitted, ''I felt a little more needy.''
When John became a free agent after the season, his family members made their feelings known.
''It was pretty overt,'' John said yesterday. ''People said, 'Selfishly, this is what I would like, but ultimately it's your decision.' ''
His mother admitted she voiced her opinion, but she added, ''I don't know if my vote counted.''
In the end, John Olerud took $20 million for three years, less than he probably could have extorted from the Mets, but as Lynda Olerud said yesterday, ''There are some things money can't buy.'' You cannot hug a grandchild via the satellite dish.

Let's follow that emotional blog with a lighter one, shall we? I'll tell you what happened to me today.
The Spider Incident.
It happened today at the library. I like writing at the library because I can work there for free, without buying a delicious drink of some sort. I like delicious drinks, but my bank account does not.
I was working on the book (40 more pages, and the second draft of Queen of Hearts is FINISHED, glory be!) and something caught my eye. First, let me set the stage a little: I was sitting in a VERY high-backed booth and my cord to my computer went up from the laptop, up, up and over the booth and then down into the plug. It was totally ridiculous set up, but I needed power. So while I'm writing a very intense emotional scene, I see something moving and low and behold, there is a large tan spider scuttling his way up the cord which pretty much goes up my shoulder and then right by my FACE. And that spider was booking it. He wanted to maim me before eating my face.
I'm not sure if a black or a tan spider is scarier, but I think it's tan because they blend in. You don't see them until it's too late. Anyways, I didn't really think about that right then, because I couldn't think about anything other than distancing myself from the spider as quickly as possible. It wasn't huge, but when a spider is moving quickly towards you, you always think it's Shelob from Lord of the Rings.
Maybe you only think that if you're a nerd.
In one AMAZING SUPERHERO movement, I launched myself away from the computer and also threw a library book that I had yet to check out (It's called "Accelerated" and I'm super pumped to read it) at the spider on the cord. I don't mean that I hit it with the book. I mean that I threw the book AT the cord with both hands and it flew unattached into the spider.
Here's what happened. I hit my legs loudly on the desk, which sent the whole thing cracking upwards. It was very loud and people must have thought I was having some sort of seizure. The hardback book flew into the cord. It ripped out the cord from my computer. The book went flying on the floor. The cord flung itself backwards over the booth and the battery landed in Nebraska somewhere.
I have no idea what happened to the spider, but I can't imagine that having a hardback book thrown at you when you are about 2 inches big is a great experience. Everyone in the library stared at me. Two girls put their heads together and whispered. I WISH it was something like "Hey, isn't that the author of Elly in Bloom? Wow, I wish I could buy her stuff at Ikea that she wants!" Unfortunately I'm pretty sure that it was more something like "Why did that girl with the crazy hair just throw a book at her computer?"
Can I just say, for the record, that I don't understand spiders??? Let's pretend for a moment that there are giants living in the world. Evil, mean giants who rule everything and are like a million times bigger than us. They have a reputation of killing us with a single swat of their hand or stomping us to death. They don't like us, in fact, being around them is sheer madness, because it leads straight to death. You know what I wouldn't DO?
Dangle in their faces from my web. Drop down from the ceiling when they go up stairs. Run towards them on the carpet when they are watching a movie. Crawl over their faces when they are sleeping. Lurk around in their socks. Make a home in their cupboard, or above their door or under the bed. Crawl up their shin.
If I was a spider, I would stay AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE from giants that want to kill me.
But no. Spiders are bold and stupid little buggers and they like nothing better than scaring the crap out of me and it always ends in some sort of ridiculous death for them. Like death by magazine, cup, shoe, candle, flame, chemicals, water squirter, bread loaf, earring, pen or oreo cookie.
And I'm pretty sure that the world can sleep soundly tonight knowing there is one less spider in the world, killed by a flying book. I don't want to be crass, but I'm pretty sure that the spider's last thoughts were probably "WHAT THE FRAK?? IS THAT A NOVEL?"
WHAM! Rest in peace library spider. Also resting in peace tonight? My pride.

I once found a tan spider in my apartment that turned out to be a freaking CAMEL SPIDER that had found it's way into a package that my husband had sent me from Saudi Arabia while he was deployed. There should be support groups for people like us.... at least we can look back and laugh. And also, tan spiders are way creepier.

Karl Fredrik Wilkama, born Wilkman, (27 March 1876, Helsinki – 15 July 1947, Helsinki) was a Finnish General of the Infantry. He was the supreme commander of the Finnish Defence Forces.
Wilkama became an officer in the Imperial Russian Army in 1899. According to the records, he started his military career on 30 May 1889, when he was only 13.
Wilkama was appointed General Major on 12 April 1918. He initially commanded the Finnish Eastern Army.
Major General Wilkama was appointed Commander-in-chief of the Finnish Army on 31 May 1918, when General of the Cavalry Mannerheim was granted leave from his position. However, Wilkama only held his position for 2½ months (until 13 August 1918). He resigned from the army on 18 June 1919, but he was reappointed Commander-in-chief between 12 September 1919 – 7 August 1924. He was promoted to Lieutenant General on 16 May 1922.
His third period as Commander-in-chief began on 2 October 1925 and he retired on 22 May 1926. He became a general of the infantry on May 16, 1928. He served on special positions in the Finnish Headquarters during the Winter War and the Continuation War.
Wilkama is recipient of the Latvian military Order of Lāčplēsis, 2nd class.[1]
