Rated 4.8 out of 5�by 106 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by ChicagoGolfer nice tacky grip I have been using Dri-Tac's for last couple years. I recently had a hybrid and wedge regripped. Very versatile grips. Good for Chicago - hot humid summer sweaty rounds and cold winter tac as well. I recommend paying a little more for these vs. lower priced grips. Worth it! January 28, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Bobby31 Comfortable feel The grips feel just like I thought they would so I'm very happy with my clubs no slipping at all I love them for the price!!! January 14, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by papajohn great grip Great grip will put on all my clubs. Allows me to relax my grip a little which has helped my swing. January 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Jlphr67 new grips I purchased the grips and had technician at store put on the grips. Great job very satisfied. Were finished and returned in one day. January 12, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by golf2xs Win Dri-Tac Standard Grip I have been using these grips for a couple of years. Their performance is exceptional allowing me to grip all clubs very light which results in improved club speed, distance and control. These grips also perform very well in all four seasons. Although I have been sized for and use a standard grip, I am planning to experiment with a medium sized to see if this size can further relax my grip especially with the driver. . January 11, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Jami626 Love them! Best grip I've ever installed. Have tried many prior. Love the tack and control I'm acheiving. November 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by bassman Best grip ever I recently had my clubs gripped but there are several grips available. I chose the Winn dry-tac. because of the soft feel. RIGHT CHOICE. Extremely soft, comfortable and no slip feel. October 27, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5�by golfgirl Excellent grip! This grip is soft and tacky. Definitely my favorite grip! Lasts long also. In my opinion, no other grip comes close. October 13, 2015

Spring cleaning with a smile
A spring clean is a fantastic way to spruce up your home and wave goodbye to winter. But it can feel quite overwhelming when you're a busy mum! We've got a few easy ideas to inspire you – and hopefully make the job a little more enjoyable.
Start with the fun stuff
First, set yourself some fun decorating challenges – and better yet, get your toddler to help. As well as being a great way to spend time together, it'll encourage him to take pride in making your home nice. (We can't promise this will last into the teenage years!)
Snap happy
If you're anything like us, your phone and laptop will be packed with pictures of your little ones. Create one folder with your favourites and put the others in a folder called 'archives'. Now go through your most-loved pics with your toddler and choose a variety of pictures (close-ups, at home, out and about etc). As you do, you can remind your tot about that great day at the beach or what he got for Christmas – little ones love hearing Mum and Dad tell stories that involve them.
You can upload your pictures at tescophoto.com, create a collage (from just £5.50) and have it delivered to your local Tesco store for free or posted to you (delivery charges apply). Then give your collage pride of place in a spot where you and your toddler will see it every day.
Flower power
When it comes to daily smile-raisers, you can't beat a bunch of bright blooms – especially when your toddler has helped to arrange them. As your little one's dexterity is still developing you can expect a few crushed petals, so an inexpensive bunch with lots of variety is best. Talk about the colours, sizes and shapes of the flowers and use slow, exaggerated motions as you demonstrate putting them in the vase. You may find he's more interested in pulling the flowers apart! So just give him a few stems to play with and let him watch as you arrange the others.
Clutter control
It's a rare mum who manages to keep on top of all the 'stuff' that builds up when you have kids. So having an 'outbox' is a great way to identify what you really need to keep. The idea is that you fill the box with all those items you think you don't need, then leave it for a couple of weeks, so you'll know whether you really can chuck out those old clothes, books or toys. If they've still got a fair bit of life left in them, take them to your local charity shop. Some charities (including British Heart Foundation) now offer free collection for everything from furniture and electrical items to clothes and books, which makes it even easier.
Green cleaning
What do white vinegar, bicarbonate of soda and fresh lemon juice have in common? They're all brilliantly effective eco-friendly cleaning products! We've got a few tips below – we think you'll be surprised at how well they work.
Glass and mirrors
Fill an old spray bottle with white vinegar and apply to glass. Scrunch up newspaper sheets (wear gloves to avoid ink marks on your fingers!) and polish away. No streaks, no smears.
Keep the fridge smelling sweet
Pop a small open container of bicarbonate of soda in the fridge – it's great for absorbing odours. Bicarbonate of soda also makes a very effective fridge cleaner. Just dilute two teaspoons in a litre of warm water and use a cloth to gently remove stains and spills.
Citrus fresh
If life gives you lemons, chop 'em, squeeze 'em and clean the kitchen with 'em. A halved lemon wiped over chopping boards removes strong garlic and onions smells, while lemon juice is great for budging tough grease or sticky spills on surfaces.

Vauxhall's VXR department has been at it again, this time making the Astra foam at the mouth. It's bright, it's fast and it's fun. What more do you need?
The first generation Vauxhall Astra VXR pushed the power boundaries in the FWD hot hatch arena. The newest take on it does the same, and then some.
Vauxhall is pumping up its Astra with some serious new hardware. The company's started fitting its cars with Panasonic Toughbook CF-19 laptops.
This scanner sticks to the middle of the road on price, performance, and extras. It's not a bad scanner, but it's not the best value either.
Pricing not available
Chat application Trillian is getting some new and upcoming protocols, making it one of the most diverse instant-messaging applications on the market.
Trillian's user profiles get an injection of social with the latest update.
Astra now has widgets that can go on your desktop, too. Neat.
We get our grubby mitts on the next generation of Trillian, named "Astra."
A new version of Trillian Astra, which requires neither app download nor browser, is on the way.
Pharmaceuticals maker AstraZeneca said Tuesday that it has agreed to purchase software from Ariba to reduce the cost of keeping its supplies in stock. Earlier this year, the $8.7 billion manufacturer bought Ariba's electronic-auction applications and has been using them to negotiate contracts with suppliers online. AstraZeneca expects the additional software, called Ariba Spend Management Suite, to help it cut costs through electronic invoicing and ordering. Neither company would disclose the value of the deal.

- Nonconforming Use
- The existing use (for example, residential, commercial, agricultural, light industrial) of a parcel of real estate that is now zoned for other kind of use Generally, a nonconforming use is permitted only if the use was legally established but now violates a zoning ordinance because the property was rezoned or the law was changed. For example, a corner parcel that has been used for a gasoline station for years might lie in an area now zoned for residential use only. The nonconforming use will be allowed ("grandfathered in"), but if the station were torn down or abandoned for a certain period of time, only residential use would be allowed going forward.

Leonardo Dicaprio and Ryan Gosling have missed out on an Oscar nomination along with Michael Fassbender.
Leonardo Dicaprio and Ryan Gosling have missed out on an Oscar nomination.
The Hollywood actors were not among those given a nod for a prestigious prize at this year's ceremony, while 'Shame' star Michael Fassbender also missed out on a nomination.
But two-time Oscar-winner Meryl Streep is one of the star's up for an accolade after she was put forward for the Best Actress gong for her portrayal of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in 'The Iron Lady'.
The nod means Meryl has now received 17 Academy Award nominations in her career.
But she will face stiff competition from Glenn Close, Rooney Mara, Michelle Williams and Viola Davis in her bid to win the major prize, while George Clooney will go up against Brad Pitt, Damien Bichir, Jean Dujardin and Gary Oldman in the Best Actor category.
Among the other nominees for awards are 'Moneyball' star Jonah Hill's nod for Best Actor in a Supporting Role, and 'The Help's Octavia Spencer has been put forward for Best Actress in a Supporting Role.
The 84th Academy Awards is set to take place at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood on February 26.

'A Million Ways To Die In The West': Zillions Of Reasons You'll Crack Up
I can't wait to see this!!!
Seth MacFarlane's spoof comedy, 'A Million Ways To Die In The West' is a must-see. It's hilariously inappropriate, over-the-top and filled with tons of 'what was he thinking?' moments — and that's what makes it so ridiculously funny.
Leave it up to Seth MacFarlane to create a crude movie centered around The Frontier. Just when you thought old Westerns couldn't go beyond gun fights and tumbleweeds, Seth teams up with Charlize Theron, Neil Patrick Harris, Liam Neeson, Amanda Seyfried and Sarah Silverman for A Million Ways To Die In The West. Read on for the top reasons you should run to the theaters to get your laugh on. Plus, click to WATCH the trailer!

Possibly DANGEROUS! DISSOLVED PLASTIC!
4 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1648208 on Nov 17, 2013
I wrote to Now Foods about this issue I encountered but they did not write back so I have no choice but to warn people. When I got this product, I removed the seal and while removing it I saw that on the under side of the seal there was a thin stretchy layer of plastic that was dissolving/ deteriorating and separating from the aluminum colored seal. I believe most of it had been dissolved by the oil already and I was only able to quickly remove the remaining part. I do not feel safe putting this product on my face etc knowing that there is plastic dissolved in the oil!!

While I wait to recover my WoW account
Merry Xmas to me. Someone has gone and hacked my acct. :(
I have discovered that without WoW I have nothing to do. Sure I walk my dogs more which means I am getting more sunshine. But nothing can stop the depressive feeling of Rape I feeling the last 48 hours.
I can see what is happening to my 2 high level characters . My warrior has been changed from arms to Fury, my Mage is now pure Frost as opposed to a Arcane/frost hybrid. Only thing I can be close to sure of is that my armor will me ok. I have never been to an instance so my armor is basically "off the Rack" drops. And I have been poor before.
But as I wait for Account Management department to answer my e-mail. I have not found any KeyLoggers nor other Malware. So it is a mystery As to how they changed my acct info. Even My security question is needed to change the password.
That sucks I wouldnt worry about your specs being changed I would worry about your characters being deleted. I for one had my account hacked while I was away not playing wow came back 4 months later to find that it was hacked and ill I had to do was call blizzard took about 30 mins for me to get a password sent to my email and boom I was back in and luckily for me someone was actually playing my account so all they did was beef my char up more... lol and that was that no problems since. I hope all is good and your characters are still intact. Merry ChristmasWed Dec 26 2007 1:20AM Report
I know how you feel.
Back in March, the same thing happened to me. I found no key loggers or malware or anything that would have but my computer our account at risk. I had my characters completely stripped. I spent two weeks dealing with Blizzard and recieved no help at all (I was a friends and family member as well). I took my computer to two different professionals, neither of which found anything compromising on my computer.
To this day I have no idea how my account got hacked. One of the guys whgo looked at my computer said it may be possible that the hack took place from Blizzard's side. Blizzard denied this, but a friend who was a former employee of Blizzard stated that it was possible and has happened in the past, through a hacker or an angry employee.
All I can say is good luck to you on getting your account restored. I know some had no problem with getting a restoration while others such as myself found Blizzard to be anything but helpful.Wed Dec 26 2007 1:51AM Report
Right click at "My computer" > Manage . Go to local groups and users > users. Click on administrator and check if your admin acc has password. If it's password free that is one of the way they got it. Right click on administrator and "set password" to set new pass.
Right click "My computer" > properties > remote. Turn off "Allow remote assistance to be sent to this computer" and "Allow users to connect remotely to this computer"
Wed Dec 26 2007 2:19AM Report
My off the rack armor worries me most cause I can always make more gold. But without armor that would be quite difficult.
I am just happy there is "the Armory" so I can check on my charactersThu Dec 27 2007 12:21AM Report
Account admin cannot help me cause my e-mail doesn't show any account attached so I have to wait till billing is open. Right now I cannot post to the official Forums cause login there is the same as to get into the game. Also be nice to discover how someone could guess an obscure answer to my security question.Sun Dec 30 2007 10:08PM Report
Part one of my quest to recover my account is completed, I can now login. Now I have to wait for the GM to investigate and see how much of my junk can be recovered. I was wrong when I said that I could be ok if I had my armor and weapon. . . you need packs too !
Stamina food and healing potions nice also.Fri Jan 04 2008 7:46PM Report
Blizzard was able to recover a few items on two characters. although the best compensation would have been to see the hacker strung up using a delicate site of his anatomy.
Hmm hang hackers off the walls of SW or IF.. Pillory them and have a basket of rotten fruit.Tue Jan 15 2008 12:08AM Report

If Bibi wants Iran's nuclear sites destroyed and not a diplomatic compromise then all he needs to do is send a fleet of planes to Iran and TRY to do something. It doesn't matter if they pull it off or nor because the result will be the same and thats Iran will fire missiles at Israel, most of which will be intercepted by the Arrow & Patriots. Poor old Obama with less than 6 months before an election and in desperate need of the Jewish vote cannot be seen as not standing by Israel in its hour of need so he will send American heavy bombers & Tomahawk missiles to destroy both Iran's missile launch capabilities to save poor Israel and then he will finish the job by destroying the nuclear sites and any other strategic military targets Israel & the Saudis tell him to take out. Thats the problem when your an American president and your so close to an election and have to worry about blocks of voters. There will be no ground war for the US just mass airstrikes on a scale only the US is capable of carrying out

(AP)In Break It Down, I will go back and analyze the Xs and Os of a notable play or performance from Sunday's games.Sunday, for the first time in a 267-game head coaching career, Mike Shanahan saw his team get shut out. The time when the Redskins were 3-1 and dreaming of the playoffs feels like it happened in some alternate dimension. The Washington team on display in Week 8's 23-0 loss to Buffalo looked like it might not score again this season, let alone win another game.John Beck was sacked nine times, Ryan Torain led the team with a whopping 14 yards rushing and the Redskins totaled 10 first downs -- just three in the first half.From top to bottom, the Redskins had no answers against a Buffalo defense that came into Sunday allowing 24.5 points and more than 400 yards per game.Washington put up 178 yards. How did it all go so wrong?We may as well start at the beginning. It took the Redskins' three possessions to pick up a first down, even though they actually put themselves in a decent situation right out of the gate.Their first play from scrimmage -- a short John Beck to Jabar Gaffney pass -- netted five yards, then an end-around to Donte' Stallworth picked up two. So, Washington faced a 3rd-and-3 at its own 27, and Beck dropped to pass.So far, so good, right?The Redskins started Sean Locklear and Will Montgomery at left tackle and left guard, respectively, with usual starters Trent Williams and Kory Lichtensteiger out due to injury. Buffalo exploited that weakened spot on Washington's line ... starting ... right ... here:Remember that nice wall Beck appeared to have set up for the 3rd-and-3 pass? Gone. Arthur Moats (No. 52) stunts to the inside, both Locklear and Montgomery stay on Dwan Edwards, and Moats finds himself with a clean shot on the QB.Making matters worse is that Chris Kelsay (No. 90 in blue) also has beaten Jamaal Brown wide, so Beck is hemmed in. He fired a pass into coverage, which wound up incomplete.Washington's next possession started with an attempt to utilize Shanahan's bread and butter -- the run game. The first-down play was a handoff to Torain on a play designed to go behind that rebuilt left side of the line.Except ...Lockler and Montgomery got blown up. There's a small crease there for Torain to try to squeeze through, but your offensive linemen are not supposed to be pushed three or four yards back by the time the running back gets the ball.Torain fails, too, in getting to that seam -- Shanahan's offensive ground game is designed around a "one-cut" principle, meaning that a running back should be able to make a single move in the backfield and hit the hole. Only on a play like this, Torain could have cut up, then bounced left and found some yards. Instead, he gained two on a dive inside.The Redskins came back to the run on the next play, again sending Torain left.This is just a debacle of the highest order.Chris Cook planted himself on the ground after getting blown past by Marcell Dareus, who wound up with 2.5 sacks Sunday. In the box are Chris Chester, Will Montgomery and Brown -- that's three(!!) Redskins linemen blocking Alex Carrington. Meanwhile, Torain tried to turn the corner with two blockers in front of him and four Bills defenders.There is no way this is going to gain anything substantial. Torain somehow wound up getting two, the Redskins came up short on a 3rd-and-6 pass and then punted.But it wasn't all on the offensive line or Torain. As Redskins fans are well aware, Beck was a major part of the problem too, because even when the line gave him time, he consistently made poor decisions or threw bad passes.On 2nd-and-8 on Washington's third drive, Beck dropped back to throw. The pocket held up well against Buffalo's rush, but Beck took off anyway.At first glance, the decision didn't appear that ill-advised. As you'll see on the picture below, there are no Buffalo defenders in sight. Beck could have run for at least six or seven yards.Instead, as he got to the line of scrimmage, he fumbled the ball -- untouched, with no defender in the area. He recovered but Washington ended up with no gain.And on second glance, Beck bailing on the pocket cost him this as well:That's Jabar Gaffney running uncovered behind the linebacker level of Buffalo's zone. Had Beck stayed planted in the pocket for another second or two, he could have delivered a huge gain to Gaffney. Beck did hit Leonard Hankerson for 23 yards on the next play, but he also overthrew Hankerson later in the drive -- on that play, the Washington wide receiver had two or three inside steps on deep coverage and could have scored with a well-thrown ball.But Beck's shaky decision making and subpar play continued to be a theme all game.In the second quarter, with Washington enjoying a 1st-and-10 at the Buffalo 17, Beck faked a handoff to Torain, then rolled to his left.At this point, Beck has a few options: Try to fit a pass in to one of his receivers, scramble or throw the ball away -- he was outside the tackle box, so intentional grounding was off the table.Instead, he held the ball, stepped up a couple steps and took a sack. Simply inexcusable.Two plays later, Washington had a 3rd-and-16 on the 22. Buffalo showed an all-out blitz, then came with seven defenders. That left four Washington receivers against four Bills defensive backs, plus safety valve Roy Helu -- he's standing directly in front of Beck in the photo below.The result of this play -- a sack by Jairus Byrd (No. 31) -- is on both Beck and Helu. The five-man offensive line picks up six rushers, leaving Byrd, Helu and Beck.Two problems arise: 1. Helu does not pick up Byrd nor does he fire out as a passing option fast enough, leaving himself in no man's land; 2. Beck never looks Helu's way for a dump-off.Beck compounds the indecision by holding the ball despite the blitz, instead of firing it out to one of his options in the flat. Byrd, untouched, clobbered Beck.And one last example of indecision from the QB position:On a 2nd-and-17 in the third quarter, Beck went back to pass again. The Bills brought four pass rushers, all of whom were picked up initially by the Redskins' line. Beck panicked, though, and instead of stepping into the pocket and firing a pass, tried to squeeze through on the right side and scramble. He ran right into the rush and took a 5-yard loss.Good luck to Mike Shanahan and his coaching staff going forward off of this one. Where do you start? The line was awful, the Torain-Helu combo nonexistent and Beck skittish and indecisive. Coaches try to build on their team's positives and fix the negatives. Shanahan has a lot of patchwork to do before Week 9, though, because there were no positives to take from Sunday's loss on offense. Comments

Message of His Excellency Benigno S. Aquino III President of the Philippines On the occasion of the start of the...
The Aquino administration urged concerned stakeholders to engage the Department of Justice (DOJ) in a dialogue to address their concerns as the process of drafting the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the newly enacted Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 would begin.
"In the meantime we believe there is an opportunity for reasonable discourse between concerned stakeholders and the Department of Justice. We urge the fullest and widest participation of stakeholders in this process," Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said in a statement during the regular press briefing in Malacanang on Wednesday.
Lacierda reiterated the Aquino administration's position to uphold the civil liberties as guaranteed by the Constitution in response to the claims of the critics and some people who question the constitutionality of certain provisions of the new Act.
"Our Constitution is clear and uncompromising in the civil liberties it guarantees all our people. As the basic law, its guarantees cannot, and will not, be diminished or reduced by any law passed by Congress," Lacierda said.
"The administration is equally adamant in upholding these liberties, which were regained at such high cost by our people. As the President said on September 27, the vigorous exchange of ideas that is the hallmark of a vibrant democracy, requires those who disagree not to oppress others," Lacierda said.
The Cybercrime Prevention Act was enacted by Congress to address legitimate concerns about criminal behavior on the Internet and the effects of abusive behavior, according to Lacierda.
"Questions have been raised about the constitutionality of certain provisions of the Act. We recognize and respect efforts not only to raise these issues in court, but to propose amendments to the law in accordance with constitutional processes," he said.
Lacierda pointed out that "no government entity has moved to deprive anyone of access to the Internet or to suppress civil liberties as exercised online."
"In fact what has taken place is that hackers who claim to be aligned with critics of the Cybercrime Act are the ones who have engaged in online vandalism, depriving the broader public of access to much needed government information and services online," he said.
Lacierda called on the critics of the Cybercrime Act to speak out against online vandalism and bullying with as much vigor and passion as they have expressed in their objections to certain provisions of this law.
"If our freedoms have been hard won, it would do us all well to remember that in the end, vigilantism harms the cause of freedom of expression and civil liberties for all netizens," he said.

Just in case anyone encounters similar problem, I managed to locate the issue to the MBPs trackpad. While it reacted to finger movement, it did not react to clicking (pressing it down). I got my monther in law to connect a USB mouse, at which point she was able to click on her user circle, fill in the password and log in. Then we disconnected the USB mouse and the trackapd worked just fine. No idea what was the real problem but at least it works now.
Still, any tips are very much welcomed.

text: When fans think of the Dragon Age franchise, co-op gameplay isn't a feature that generally comes to mind. While Bioware did add a separate multiplayer mode to Mass Effect 3, most of their games are usually single player story-driven experiences. That is why it is odd that they developer didn't deny the possibility of co-op in Dragon Age: Inquisition when recently asked. Instead, Bioware simply revealed that they have yet to announce any multiplayer features for the game.

My son seems to love his grandparents more than us. What can we do?
My 18-month-old adores my parents. But he's so attached to them, I feel like he doesn't love my husband and me. No matter what we do, where we take him, or what we feed him, nothing calms him down or makes him happy until Sunday night when he sees Papa and Granny again. I'm glad he's so close to my parents and that they're so willing to help care for him, but why doesn't my son love us too? Please help.

Hi, I have the same problem. I'm a working Mom & keep my little son with my mother & her helper throughout the day. He just turned 1. He is so happy with them & the most difficult thing is, after I go home from work, he actually doesn't show any interest to come into arms but whenever he sees my Mother or the Helper he is just so happy. When I leave him with my Mother in the morning & say goodbye, he is not at all worried, but when I go back in the evening to pick him up, he is so worried & throws tantrum for leaving her & coming. I think its bcos the time they devote to him & they are always with him whereas I do the housework like cooking, cleaning etc, so my time is sort of divided among many things. I always think that I'm left alone, but I know that its not true and he'll outgrow this. DJposted 12/11/2013 by DilaniJay
You stated that you are so glad that they are " so willing to help care for him". Do they take care of him throughout the week? Children bond with their primary caregivers, so if you are dropping him off Sunday night, how long is it for? or, is he just spending time with them for a few hours? If that's the case, he's just excited to see his grandparents, which is normal and healthy. Make sure you are playing lots with him every day and being positive around him.posted 05/10/2004 by JMML
I think that EVERYONE has a problem with their inlaws or parents. My problem is that when i was a child my mom (my parents adopted me due to my birthmother being abusive) was very abusive and neglestful towards me, and she actually treats my sons better than she treated me... althoughth I do think that there may be a little playing favorites between my two boys tehy are about 19 months apart, nick my almost 3 year old, has lived with us at thier house for most of his life, and ithinkg that my parents theink that gives them the right to tell me how to raise my sons and then if i try something sdifferent they go over me and do something i told them i didn't want them to do. Its really hard, but i know that they take good care of them and that makes it at least a little better, but there will always be resentment unless you get one of those grandparents that listens to you and disciplines like you want them too, like my mother in law (the woman is an angel when it comes to this stuff).posted 09/04/2007 by k_grousky
I agree with one thing in the "there are bigger problems" posts. Yes, there are problems like starvation and aids in the world, but, that isn't YOUR problem! Your issue is that you feel left out of your son's "love" circle, as I like to call it. When my boy was little all he wanted to do was be with nana and papa til he was like three. No one else could touch him if they were around or take care of him. This subsided when I enforced the "even when I am not around I AM MOM and what I say has to be what he lives by." Once they got a grip on the letting him run wild with no rules while I was gone, he developed a healthy respect and love for all three of us. I would suggest that you see if they are like WAAAYY more lenient than you when you are not around or something like that cuz that was my case.posted 11/16/2004 by Puddles+2
Know that no one can replace you in your child's eyes so please don't think that is it. However, grandparents are special to a child for the same reasons grandchildren are special to grandparents......its not permanent. My son loves seeing his mom mom and pop pop and I used to be jealous until I realized that its because they don't have to have rules with him. I am his disciplinarian and they are his playtime pals. I say "no" and they say "yes" Sometimes my son gets mad at me for taking his privileges away and will tell me he is running away to live with his mom mom and pop pop but remember that if they were the ones permanently taking care of him and making the rules then you would be the fun one he wants to run to. Be happy that he loves them so much. If he is having tantrums you might have to use the time out method and tell him he can get up when he stops whining. We have our time out behind the front door so at those tantrums we tell him to "check his attitude at the door"posted 07/18/2011 by Cristina43
And for maddymmom, I don't think this problems has any correlation with time spent with either parents or grandparents. I am a stay at home mom, I give my all to my children, I do get busy with house work, school work etc, but they are always my very first priority!!! I honestly believe that my son gets more individual attention when he is with them, bc they only take him, they have only take my 13 month old once to spend the night with them. I think he enjoys being the center of attention, and my mom is always calling me telling me the crazy things that he says or does, that he never does when I'm around, and it's always something he's saying to get a laugh out of them. I take care of my son, but when he is with them, it's all about him. I believe that's why he wants to spend the night all the time. I let him stay one night a week the rest of the time he's with me.
cont... to my parents house bc I feel like if he wasn't around him much then he would prefer me, I feel kind of guilty for feeling that way!!!
I'm so glad that this seems to be normal behavior!!! I know when I was young I was super attatched to my Nana and wanted to be with her all the time!!! I know that my son loves my husband and I we are very close, but he always wants to go to my parents, and when I go to pick him up he usually doesn't want to leave!!! It makes me sad sometimes. I think he has more fun with them, bc they are always playing outside or going somewhere fun, and I'm always busy with my other son, and school work, house work etc, when we're home. It seems like they have more time to play and they're more able to give him their undivided attention and that's why he enjoys being with them so much. I try to keep reminding myself that he still loves me in a completely different way bc I'm his mommy, and nothing will ever compare to mommy, but he just thinks they're more fun!!! He is so loving to me, always kissing, hugging and snuggling and telling me how much he loves me! I've been reluctant lately to let him go
While I was pregnant for my first child, I was encouraged to take some time with my husband after the baby was born so we planned a vacation away from my DS when he was 9 months old. Upon returning, my MIL had taught him to call her Mommy and thought it was the cutest thing in the world. I was furious and when they approached us in church I would refuse to let her hold him. My husband would get upset because she was teh Grandma and should be able to hold her grandchild. This arguement continued until I was pregnant with my second child when we ended up going to a marriage counselor who suggested we sit BOTH sets of grandparents down and lay down some ground rules. We did this and my husband understands why this action upset me. My DS is now 3 and always says its "Mommy's turn". Things have definately turned around and I feel much better. It could have been a phase or it could have been the ground rules. In either case, it is over!posted 07/15/2008 by greenlem
I have to say that I lived with my parents through my pregnancy and up until my DD was 8 months old. So she was obviously very close to them, and she still is. At first, I was very jealous. I did everything for her, and yet she was so happy with Grammy and Grampy. It broke my heart. But after a while I realized it is a GOOD thing she is so close with them. She is now 22 months and has a very close bond with my parents, and I love it. It still hurts me sometimes when she won't behave for me, but is a perfect little angel for them, but what can ya do? They spoil her, what else can I expect!? That's what grand-parents are made for, lol. I'm also glad to know that she has 2 more people who love her more like their own child, and that if God forbid something should ever happen to me, she would still be taken care of and loved and spoiled. I also hope that my second child (17 weeks pregnant) will be as close with them as my DD is.posted 07/03/2008 by peanut06acrin08

Lent has begun! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
This shows the vanity of carnal mirth, and proves what Solomon said of laughter, that it is mad; for, 1. There is sadness under it. Sometimes when sinners are under convictions, or some great trouble, they dissemble their grief by a forced mirth, and put a good face on it, because they will not seem to yield: they cry not when he binds them. Nay, when men really are merry, yet at the same time there is some alloy or other to their mirth, something that casts a damp upon it, which all their gaiety cannot keep from their heart. Their consciences tell them they have no reason to be merry (Hos. 9:1); they cannot but see the vanity of it. Spiritual joy is seated in the soul; the joy of the hypocrite is but from the teeth outward. See John 16:22; 2 Cor. 6:10. 2. There is worse after it: The end of that mirth is heaviness. It is soon over, like the crackling of thorns under a pot; and, if the conscience be awake, all sinful and profane mirth will be reflected upon with bitterness; if not, the heaviness will be so much the greater when for all these things God shall bring the sinner into judgment. The sorrows of the saints will end in everlasting joys (Ps. 126:5), but the laughter of fools will end in endless weeping and wailing.

Firefly Park
Fireflies are also known "Lightning Bugs" and they shine brightly at the night to attract a partner. While we humans tend to chat up our prospective partners, fireflies send each other little light signals. Apparently they shine during the day too but we just can't see it.
They are only seen at night in "Berembang" trees along the Selangor River. I could not spot any in the palm or any other tree for that matter. The overall effect is just like the twinkling lights of a Christmas tree.
I don't have any pictures to show you because it's difficult to get a long camera exposure from a moving boat. And using a flash is not allowed and pointless anyway.
I visited the Firefly Park as a part of the MM Adventures Firefly Tour which included a seafood feast and a visit to the Lighthouse and Silver-Leafed Monkeys at Bukit Melawati.
Just a small piece of advice... do try to avoid tours on moonlit nights as the ambient light is enough to make the fireflies difficult to see except in tree darkened corners.

- Eco-Tourism
I know of two places where you can catch them. One's at Kampung Belimbing, the other is Kampung Kuantan. From the highway nearest would be Kg Kuantan. That's the one I took and it was good. Not too sure bout Kg Belimbing's.

A typical day trip program
Perhaps I am over ambitious, I am interested in seeing the little deviations from the ordinary. For the vicinity of Kuala Selangor, I have drawn up here an example of a typical day's program covering the list of interests I have mentioned. You can adjust and pick those items that you fancy. In fact for me, there could be even more side trips that I would check on during my visit to the place. Browsing through the pictures together with this page, few items not mentioned on this list. By the way, I am there monthly to check on bird life in that area and at the same time keeping an eye on physical changes in the area.
Proposed agenda for a day trip to Kuala Selangor.
8.00 am - Arrival in Kuala Selangor Nature Park - walking through Malaysian secondary forest, mangrove forest. For Fauna & Flora, also doing bird watching
11.00 am - Hike up Bukit Melawati for the museum, well, execution stone, Rest House, historical Fort and the Dutch Lighthouse. Photograph the Silver-leaves Langur
Noon - Have lunch in Pasir Penampang Sea Food Restaurant. Or stay on to try the traditional Hainanese cooking at the Government Rest House. Fantastic view of the town and river as you have your meal.
2.30 pm - Adjourned to see life in the rice fields. Beautiful scenery and stop by their stalls. Fruits like Mangos, bananas and sweet corns are the common items for sales by the roadside. See the local customs and practices.
5.30 pm - Back to Bukit Melawati to watch sunset over the Malacca Straits
7.30 pm - Dinner in Tanjong Tengkorak - a dilapidated wooden shack within a small fishing community with boardwalk as alley
10.00 pm - Join the crowd and take Fireflies tours
11.30 pm - Return to Kuala lumpur.
There are many more eateries and places of interests that you may discovered.
In fact the local are in Kuala Selangor for quite a different purpose besides those as mentioned by me. They would look for fresh fishes, the by-products from the marine industry like dried prawn fritters, fish balls, sometimes cockles and mussels.
Happy hunting.

Pasir Penambang Market
This market sells dried and fresh seafood... Fresh catches from the sea and preserve marine products such as fish and prawn crackers and shrimp paste can be found in abundance here... Fresh fish are only available at certain times of the day when the fisherman return from the sea...
Bukit Melawati
Bukit Melawati is actually a fort built on top of a hill in the late 18th century by the second Sultan of Selangor to fortify his position... All that remains today are pieces of the foundation, some cannons and lots of monkeys... The silver-leaf monkeys, grey in colour, are gentle and accepts food from visitors gratefully... On the other hand, the more common long-tailed macaques are rascals and will not hestitate to steal food when you are looking... There is also a lighthouse, a royal mausoleum and a rest house here...
Kuala Selangor Nature Park
The park, also known as Taman Alam, is a sanctuary fro many different types of flora and fauna... It offers visitors the chance to witness life in a mangrove swamp, complete with mosquitoes and scent of muddy peat... Wildlife such as otters, leopard cats, silver-leaf monkeys, mudskippers, king crabs and 156 species of birds can be spotted in the park... There are towers located in and around the park to facilitate bird-watching... The lake in the park is man-made and is controlled via luice gates... Chalets and kitchen facilities are available as well...
Kampung Kuantan Fireflies Sanctuary
This scintillating display of fireflies portrays an image of a flashing Christmas tree... The thousands of fireflies found in the mangrove swamp of Kampung Kuantan produce a synchonised, rhythmic flashing, which could arguably be one of the best sights in the world... The skilled local oarsmen make this experience a memoable and unforgettable one... Visitors should also try the seafood here...
Bukit Belanda
Bukit Belanda or Fort Utrecht is 420m high and lies just behind Kampung Bilit... During Worl War II, the British forces use the hill as an observation post... Bukit Belanda means "Dutch Hill"... It got its name because for a short period during thre war, the Dutch were in charge of North Borneo... The hike to the top takes about 45 mins...
Silver-Leafed Monkeys
Several families of Silver-Leafed Monkeys and Long-Tailed Macaques hang around Bukit Melawati looking for a feed of fresh, crunchy beans from visitors. If you hold out a bean, these friendly primates will gently take it from your hand and happily munch on this treat.
These monkeys will also suddenly leap up and onto your shoulders hoping for preferential treatment with some food handouts. Don't make any sudden moves because they will cling to your hair or part of your face for support.
But still be careful when feeding the monkeys because although they have had a lot of contact with humans, they are still wild animals and can be a bit unpredictable.
When you have run out of beans, just hold your hands out, palm first to show you have nothing left and they will gladly go to the next visitor.
I'm still in two minds about feeding the monkeys because it has made them dependant on handouts from humans instead of foraging in the forest. However, it is still a wonderful interaction zone and kids (including the big ones) get a lot of pleasure from feeding these playful primates.
The cute Silver-Leafed babies have a glorious golden fur compared to the dull grey of the adults.
I visited Bukit Melawati as a part of the MM Adventures Firefly Tour which included a seafood feast followed by a visit to the Firefly Park.

Fireflies Watching
The fireflies is the biggest attraction of Kuala Selangor. The one i have been is Bukit Belimbing. There are resort there as well if you wanted to stay over.
The boat fee is RM10 per person, it will bring you around with the boat about 30 minutes.
The experience of seeing so many fireflies are stunning, you can't imagine it if you havent been... I heard, the fireflies here are getting lesser... go now before its too late.
Padi Fields
Driving straight after the kuala selangor town, about 15 minutes, you will see a stunning view of padi fields on your right. When you standing in between the padi fields, your world just suddenly feel peaceful and quite....... very nice!
Kuala Selangor Nature Park
Kuala Selangor Nature Park is situated at the mouth of Selangor River , in the state of Selangor , Malaysia. It covers approximately 800 acres of mangroves and mudflats and is the home to various wildlife such as otters, monkeys, birds, mudskippers and crabs.
When i was there, we are quite late, we reach there around 5.00pm and the counter of ticketing closed. We get the permission from the staff there, and they let us in.. We are so happy, holding the map the staff gave, and waiting toward the jungle. Once we step into the road toward the mangroves area, we felt the friendly mosqitors all over our body.. not long after that, we have to gave up and return to the entrance. It might be the timing issue, getting dark, and the friendly insects will all come around..
We will get back there one day...it should be a very nice place.
Bukit Melawati - Silverleaf Monkeys
The monkies here are quite special, named: Silverleaf Monkies. They have some silver fur shinning in them. And their baby, are in all gold colour fur, slowly, it will turn dark like the adult...I heard this type of monkies are very friendly and polite, they will not fight for food like other brown monkies.. i never dare to walk close to them.. you can go and find out and let me know :-p
Kampung Kuantan Fireflies
Kampung Kuantan, is located 9km from Kuala Selangor town. The 30 minutes boat or sampan ride down the river bank and the boatman will tell you the story about fireflies. It is best to go there during warmer months i.e. from May –September apparently is the best time to see fireflies. The boatman told us there are only 3 places in the world that have fireflies Kampung Kuantan, Brazil and caves in New Zealand.
But only the fireflies in Kampung Kuantan are synchronized when they twinkle. This was my second time here and it's still amazing to see this insects lighting up the berembang tree and flickering like the Christmas tree lights.
The "Berembang Tree" or known by its scientific name 'Sonneratia Caselaris' is a type of mangrove tree that grows wildly along the banks of Sungai Selangor. "Berembang Tree" is important to the existence of these fireflies as it provides food for these insects. The fireflies will suck the juice from the leaves as food. No photography allowed during the boat ride.
They charge per person RM10.00 or RM40.00 per boat.( if there is 5 person the additional person pays the boatman).
- Singles
Bird Watching
At the height of the migratory bird season (around September), a large variety of birds find their way here. The birds come as far away as Northern China and Siberia to escape winter. Some common species found here are the Grey Heron, Milky Storks, Plovers and various species of Sandpipers. Nordman Greenshank, one of the rarest birds can also be found here as well.
