I have found the great thing since sliced bread! It's called SpellingCow.com. I know there are probably other sites out there that do the something, but this was the first one I found.
From there website:
SpellingCow can spell check as you type on any web page. Just add one line and your website will have the best spell checker on the net! You may also run SpellingCow on any website you visit via the use of a favelet.
The best part about this it that you can use it on just about any site on the net. So no more looking like a idiot on message boards. I can just spell check on the fly.
Moo! SpellingCow.com I wish they had a Grammar Cow.

If America were still a representative republic, Congress would deny President Barack Obama and his neocon toadies the authorization to launch an attack on Syria. But as we have demonstrated countless times, America is now a fascist totalitarianism.
According to polls taken in recent days, Americans oppose by 59 percent to 36 percent taking military action in Syria. Only 21 percent of Americans believe taking action against Syria is in the national interest. Another poll shows American opposition at 53 percent.
So as Obama lines up the neocons behind his war effort in order to gain cover and a group of idiots with which to share the blame, let's look at who America will be supporting in the war effort. They are:
- Suicide bombers and Islamic jihadists who have fought against U.S. troops in Iraq.
- Al-Qaida-linked terrorists who behead Syrian bus passengers, including women and children.
- Al-Qaida-affiliated terrorists who murder unarmed government loyalists who are pleading for their lives.
- Islamists who attack and kill Christians, behead them and feed them to dogs, rape and murder them, slaughter them as they defend women in their charge and then brag about the number they've murdered.
- Animals who saw people's heads off with knives (warning: graphic video) and shoot down women and dump their bodies into holes (warning: graphic video).
- War criminals who hold mass executions of prisoners who surrendered.
- Cannibals who eat the hearts of their enemies.
- Monsters who order the widows of war dead to prostitute themselves to other rebel soldiers to show their loyalty.
The United States has no business taking sides in the Syrian war. The evidence that Bashar Assad used chemical weapons is sketchy, at best. In fact, it's likely that the perpetrators were the rebels, who were the ones with the most to gain from using gas. And the gas was likely supplied by Saudi Arabia.
The criminal Obama regime wants to bomb Syrians to punish them for bombing Syrians. Meanwhile, Obama has killed four times as many people with drones as Assad is alleged to have killed with poison gas. And now, Obama wants to up the ante.
So who is the war criminal here? It will be Obama and any neocons who support military action if the United States makes war on Syria against the will of the American people (including veterans) who are tired of war.

Supergirl - Bishoujo Statue
Packaging - ***These are in the usual boxes, with a
sturdy inner plastic coffin. There's no twisties or bands, and it's
very collector friendly, but there is plastic wrap around key spots to
avoid paint rubs.
Sculpting - ***1/2I have to admit that at first glance, I
was a bit confused by the pose. Did her supercat Streaky
surprise her? Did she step on the cat? Trip over it, mid-air? Clearly
they are both flying...but I can't quite figure out what's happening
After awhile though, it really started to grow on me. I
think it's the old school pin-up nature of the pose, something you
might have seen from Vargas. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but
it's still pretty damn hot.
Of course, the face sculpt reflects
the anime/manga nature of the series. There's also a bit of an elven
look to her, although I'm not quite sure why...it's not like she has
pointed ears.
The detail work fits in nicely with the overall
series, with just the right amount of wrinkles and creases. The hair is
finely cut, and has a cool translucent color.
The large S on her
chest is sculpted as well, not just painted, which is a huge plus. Her
cat has the lightning bolts sculpted on both sides, although
the fur is not very textured.
worth pointing out that both Supergirl and her kitty are attached to
the base by you, so if a cat in a cape ain't your thing, you can feel
free to leave him off.
Paint - ****The paint
work is well above average, as you'd expect with a collectible series
such as this. Colors are very bright, especially the red and blue, and
everything is consistent and clean.
There's a slight translucence
to the skin, which gives it an interesting depth. I also really like
the clear color used with the hair, and the fluffy white cloud rests on
a clear base that keeps it all very sturdy.
Value - ***Considering that many statues in this scale -
and smaller - are now in the $80 -$90 range, the fact that these are
still affordable is much appreciated. With a little effort you should
be able to grab her at the onset at around $50 or so, but with the
popularity of the line, that is likely to rise with time.
Things to Watch Out For - Not
a thing. Although this is a plastic statue, not resin, you can still
break it with enough force, but you'd really have to work at it.
Overall - ***1/2
This is a series that continues to impress, although I can see where
the anime style and uber-sexy nature of the poses might be a deterrent
for some.
pose may also be a bit odd, but I really do think they were going for a
pin-up style look, and in that light it really works well.
paint work is excellent though, and the pose and style really grew on
me. As a big DC fan, I'm really enjoying this take on the lovely
ladies, and as a fan of the 40's and 50's pin-up girls, I appreciate
the style even more.
Score Recap:
Packaging - ***
Sculpting - ***1/2
Paint - ****
Value - ***
Overall - ***1/2
Where to Buy -
Online options include these site sponsors:
- Urban
Collector has her at just $47.
- Things From Another World
has her at $48.
- Big Bad Toy Store
has her at $50.
- Fanboy Collectibles

(KTNV) -- The newest target in the battle against childhood obesity is the school lunch.
An elementary school in New York has traded in the chicken nuggets and other unhealthy entrees for an all vegetarian menu.
And many of the kids say they love it.
The principal of the school says that other schools in the country have noticed and expressed interest in their decision.
The school, which is located in Queens, New York, is the first school in the country to switch to vegetarian meals.
The idea was controversial at first but now the kids are eating it up.
The kids also attend weekly nutrition classes and get "energy breaks" when their energy starts to lag.
Since the switch, the school claims fewer students are classified as overweight and obese, test scores are higher and their attendance rate is better.
Parents and teachers say that the real purpose of the health push is to reach kids early and create healthy eating habits that will last a lifetime.

ARVADA — Shelley Perkins likes to break things.
"You just have to know how to go crazy," the Chatfield senior said with a smile Feb. 7. "I'm a little out of control."
And when Perkins gets like that – watch out. No tradition is safe.
Perkins broke three Class 5A Jefferson County League records at the annual regular-season finale – one of which was her own. The Chargers' speedster set a new mark in the 50-yard freestyle only to break it in the finals, not long before she set a new record in the 100 freestyle.
Anyone who willingly dives into a pool of water off a 10-meter platform clearly isn't afraid of heights.
John Fox has parlayed his fearlessness into a college scholarship.
Fox was one of 16 student-athletes signing a National Letter of Intent at Chatfield Senior High School on National Signing Day. The senior will be attending the University of Kentucky where he will compete for the Wildcats in platform diving.
Faye Griffin wants Jefferson County residents to know that she's just a regular person. She might be a politician, but the newly elected District 1 county commissioner said she sure doesn't feel like one.
"I don't really feel like a politician. I don't. I'm just a person," Griffin said. "It's just different."
What is the name of the enzyme that synthesizes DNA? What do you call the range through which temperature changes more rapidly with depth?
If you said "DNA polymerase" and "thermocline," you might have been able to keep pace with the scores of Colorado high school students that squared off Jan. 31 in the 19th Colorado Science Bowl, hosted by Dakota Ridge High School.
In an earlier life, Jenny Schmidt of Bailey was a high-profile television reporter who covered the O.J. Simpson trial and the Rodney King verdict. But when she traded that life for motherhood, things changed.
After losing last year's bid to sell beer and wine, supermarkets and convenience stores are putting their efforts behind legislation to let them sell full-strength beer.
The movement has caused alarm among liquor store owners like Scott Risley of Super Liquor Mart at West Coal Mine Avenue and South Pierce Street.
"It'll put a lot of stores out of business," Risley said. "How could it not?"
He said there would be no way for the smaller stores to compete with the bulk buying power of large, interstate grocery chains.
People will be bouncing off the walls inside the old Albertson's building at South Kipling Street and West Bowles Avenue this spring.
Tim Crawford, a businessman from Golden, is opening an indoor trampoline fun center called Jump Street in the building, hoping to give South Jeffco a new way to play.
"It's something the whole family can do," Crawford said while taking a break from removing old steel from the building Dec. 31. "Some parents have more fun than their kids."
For as long as I can remember, I've spent Super Bowl Sunday doing two things.
One, of course, is watching the game. And for the few anti-football types out there, you missed a heck of a game. Not as great as last year's, but still, a really good game.
The second thing I've always done on Super Bowl Sunday is eat chicken wings.
Now, I don't know how the tradition started in the Johnson household, but, I was certainly happy my father brought it into existence.
Ken Caryl Middle School student Erin Doyle, daughter of the late Sgt. Patrick Doyle of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and Cheryl Doyle, has been selected as one of two Coloradans with Type 1 juvenile diabetes to travel to Washington, D.C., for the biannual JDRF Children's Congress.
Erin will meet with members of Congress and tell her story and the stories of many other children who have the disease.

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) -- Glenn Steil Sr., who pushed to get term limits for elected officials before serving eight years in the Michigan Senate, died today at 69, according to his family.
Steil was in Bonita Springs, FL, this morning, walking his dog with his wife when he suffered a heart attack.
The family says funeral arrangements are still pending.
Steil was a successful businessman, involved in local hotels and the furniture industry.
"He fought very hard all his life for what he believed in and he was a champion," says his life-long friend, Bob Sullivan.
In 1992, Steil served as co-chairman of the successful statewide drive for Proposal B, the constitutional amendment that institute term limits for elected state lawmakers and executives.
In 1993, Steil made a run to fill the Congressional seat held by the late Paul Henry. When Vern Ehlers won the seat, Steil ran for and won the 32nd District state senate seat Ehlers vacated.
Steil served eight years in the senate, and once comtemplated a run for Grand Rapids mayor.
Steil and his friend and business partner Bob Sullivan worked together on several community philanthropy projects. They raised money for the Grand Rapids Youth Commonwealth's center for children. The Steil Center opened in 2000. The men also teamed up in 2007 to pay for free admission to Grand Rapids' city pools for all children 17 and under.
"I admire anyone who has the wealth, the where-with-all to do something utterly different but they commit themselves to their community," says Grand Rapids Mayor George Heartwell.

Settings icon and full screen on Mac version
Asked on Jan 25, 2014 - 12:42 UTC
Two things here, using the updated version of the app on a Mac:
1) Settings icon (the cog) is out of place, seems to move around for me but currently is to the right and down from the 'add task' + icon. Used to be to the right of the karma points?
2) Putting the app into full screen mode used to have the whole screen as a white background with the projects and tasks shown on the left of the screen. Now these are centred with a white background, with grey to either side. It doesn't have the feel of a full screen app.

Hi Steve,
Both issues are known, and we are looking into it now. Though we are having troubles reproducing both of them.

This is fixed in the latest release.

After looking back at the hottest WAGs of the decade and of 2009, it's time to look forward. We can still appreciate that Marisa Miller dated Dale Jr. in 2002 or that Andy Roddick married Brooklyn Decker in 2009, but that's old news.
So here are the women who have either started dating an athlete recently, whose significant others are poised to have a big year, or they're just so hot it's almost guaranteed that they'll be a household name next year.

A sharp-dressed thief pulled off a $100,000 jewelry heist on a heavily guarded store on New York's Fifth Avenue.
Surveillance video shows the man entering Tiffany's wearing a suit and tie, a driving cap and sunglasses. The posh thief talks to a worker and then continues looking around the store.
The thief returns to the front of the store and leans on a counter directly across from the exit. In a matter of moments, the man snaps up two necklaces left on the counter and walks out the revolving door while the security guard looks in the other direction.
Together, the necklaces were valued at around $100,000.

AOL, on the other hand, although fully acknowledging the issue, don't think its quite that serious. Spokesman Andrew Weinstein maintained that the problem would only affect a small number of IE users, and that a fix would be on the way soon.
"We are actively working on a fix, and we hope to deploy an automatic patch to users that will address it next week," Weinstein told Ziff Davis Internet News.
"Pending that resolution, users do not need to uninstall their browser or take any other action," he added.
