Hiking boots are designed to provide adequate, if not excellent support to all parts of the foot as a person ambulates over lengthy and various types of terrain.
When the foot is placed under this kind of pressure and stress, a plethora of conditions can result and none of them are good if the footwear is not supportive, cushioned in the right places and does not have appropriate, non-slip soles. One other feature of hiking boots that is very important is that they be waterproof.
Hiking boots are also meant to be sturdy enough to give the wearer excellent protection from the ground and the many obstacles found on it including rocks, stones, heat, cold, pointed objects and rough surfaces.

A Good Pair of Women's Hiking Boots
A good pair of women's hiking boots will, most likely, be the obvious choice of footwear for any woman who is planning on taking a lengthy hike.
Low-cut hiking shoes are the preference for some women but the most frequently chosen are the sturdy hiking boots.
They're not the easiest thing to buy, though. Get this wrong and you're stuck with sore feet possibly for months.
I do not claim to be a foot gear expert, however I am quite familiar with the needs of backpacking feet. So, I'll tell you a few things that you need to give special attention to:
* the women's hiking boots that you buy must be ultra-light as possible for two distinct reasons: 1) heavy boots will tend to tire you out and 2) you're going to be carrying your boots in your backpack once you change to hiking sandals.
* it's important for your boots to be able to breathe if you want to be able to avoid wet, sweaty feet.
* it's necessary for them to be waterproof. You may not be planning to walk through water or mud but if it's out there, it's going to find you and it's a good idea to remember that wet boots are the cause of foot blisters.
Gore-Tex boot inserts are available and they repel water, should your boots not be waterproof already. You can also spray on some silicone to help repel water.
* they should dry quickly – just beware that if they get soaked (if water spills in over the top, for example) they make take days to dry completely
* the treads of the sole have to grip properly
* lacing up the boots should be a simple task and not a frustrating one each time that you remove them.
* not indispensable but helpful is a little loop above the heel to help pull the boot on
* do not let your heels slip/rub up and down as this will cause blisters. This is the very reason the heel lock is there.
* you should have good ankle support but sides shouldn't be too stiff – you'll have to find a compromise between protection and comfort
* make sure the sole is thick and stiff. If not, you're going to feel every stone and pebble that you step on for a long way.
* and finally – need I say it? – they must be comfortable, and of course they will be since you will have already broken them in!
This is not a joke. You should not even slightly consider wearing a pair of new hiking boots on a backpacking journey. They should be totally broken in while you have them at home. This breaking in should take place over a period of several months. You should also perform this routine while toting a fairly heavy backpack. Take shorter hikes around the area where you live initially. Don't just wear them around the house because this will not break them in properly. Breaking hiking boots in is an especially crucial task if your hiking boots are manufactured from leather.
Each brand of women's hiking boot has a gimmick or specialty such as leather or Gore-Tex liners, special pads or innersoles, etc. However, it's important to keep in mind that no two people's feet are the same. That's right. The boot that Jane wears well will make Betty's feet feel like she stepped into a volcano. Yours will be different than mine. Don't depend on your friend's recommendations. Get your own personal hiking boots. The best fit for you.
Be careful where you buy, too. Go to a reputable outdoor shop, where you'll get professional advice and the best selection. A professional will be able to help you determine whether a boot is too tight, or just snug enough. A standard shoe shop often has 'amateur boots' – they look like the real thing but are just glorified walking shoes.
Is there some confusion between hiking shoes and hiking boots?
What should make your determination is the type of terrain that you'll be walking over. If that terrain is going to be an uphill hike or through some rough and rocky or harsh terrain, you'll want the boots. Why? Because they'll give you the kind of support and protection that you need for this type of terrain.
Shoes will work for flatter, even, forest type terrain where there are few obstacles. But regardless of whether you get the hiking boots or the hiking shoes, do not scrimp on them. Always buy the highest quality that you can afford.
Waterproof Hiking Boots
So, why is it so important for hiking boots to be waterproof?
Actually, if the hiker knows for a fact that they will not be encountering any type of muddy or wet terrain, or if they are going on a reasonably short hike, waterproof boots are not essential.
If, however, the terrain is known to have water, mud, marshy area or swamp on it; or if the condition of the area is unknown or there has been a recent rain, snow or precipitation condition; or if the hike is going to be long and/or a multi-day hike, a hiker would be very wise to wear waterproof hiking boots.
Just about everyone, at one time or another, has walked through some form of water or moisture and the moisture has gotten into their shoes. The vast majority of people who have experienced this have also had to, at some time, wear wet shoes for extended periods of time. We'd be willing to bet that this was not considered a pleasant experience, in the least.
Wet shoes are both uncomfortable and damaging. When footwear is wet it tends to grab at the skin more and this causes severe blistering in a rather short time. Blisters can develop into very painful and debilitating wounds that will bring about infection or worse if they persist.
Walking for long distances over uneven and often difficult landscapes is virtually impossible when severe foot problems develop. The result can be the need for rescue or impromptu crutches as well as a great deal of misery. Wet feet alone can cause this problem and can be easily avoided with waterproof hiking boots.
So, our conclusion is that since there are so very many varieties, brands, sizes and types of hiking boots available, there is no reason for a person who is intent on hiking to have to suffer unnecessary foot discomfort.
The main lesson to learn from all this is that one should be absolutely certain that the hiking boots they decide to purchase will fit them perfectly. There should be no doubt that the boots will do the job they were intended to do and be comfortable to boot (pun intended).
Since each of us is different, it pays for a perspective hiker to invest in a very good pair of hiking boots. If a person is intending to hike often and for long distances, it would certainly behoove them not to hold back on their hiking boot investment. Get the best boots that you can afford.
With so many different varieties out there, there's bound to be one that will please the most discriminating outdoors person.
Why Waterproof Hiking Boots For Women?
Why discuss waterproof hiking boots for women rather than simply "hiking boots for women?" Better yet, why differentiate between women's hiking boots and men's hiking boots?
The answer is really quite simple, if you know anything at all about either hiking, boots or, even more relevant, both.
Each Person's Feet Are Different
First let us address the reason for the hiking boot in the first place. Hiking is not, as many would think, merely walking a bit. Hiking usually means walking for extended distances and often, over unfriendly or at least significantly varying terrain. By "unfriendly" we mean that the terrain is usually uneven, often calling for some degree of climbing. The climbing may be over obstacles or even under obstacles, and it is frequently unknown to the hiker, ahead of time, whether either condition will be present on the trail which they are challenging. As a matter of fact, the condition of the trail is often totally unknown to the hiker at all.
The further conditions of the terrain could be described with such terms as frozen, sandy, wet, muddy, hilly, rocky or many other friendly or unfriendly descriptive terms. Regardless of the condition of the ground, you can pretty much depend on it being somewhat hard on the hiker's feet.
Each and every human being on this earth has different feet. The feet are like fingerprints or snowflakes in that each of them is different from the others. Yes, it's true that all of them have some of the same characteristics but, if each foot characteristic was measurable, in some way, it would, most likely be found that no two were exactly alike.
Some feet are wide, some are narrow. Some are long, some are short. The toes on some feet are long while other people have short toes and long feet. Some people's balance is on the outside or lateral side of the foot while still others balance on the inside or medial area of the foot. The differences are just too numerous to list and each of us has some of those differences in our feet that no one else has in the same combination. Weird huh?
Everyone walks differently from every other person too. The condition of your feet depends a lot on how we walk. Which area of the heel you come down on first makes a humongous difference in the shape of your arches. Ah, the arches.
The arches of the feet can make your life normal or completely miserable, depending on how high they are. This goes too with the area on the inside of the big toe (curieform). Same with the ball of the foot, the ankle, the back or Achilles tendon, they all are different on each person.
Though each of us has differing aspects to our feet, we also share many of the same characteristics and aspects.
When we are young, it is normal that we have fewer foot problems. Not all people have fewer problems when they're young but, for the most part, people don't have as many difficulties with their feet when they are in their early years.
Consequently, we tend to abuse our feet somewhat when we're in our youth because we don't have pain or aches most of the time.
However, as we grow older our feet begin to take on personalities of their own. As we are growing our feet are changing. Once we have reached physical maturity, our feet stop growing and are more affected by the way we walk and ambulate because they are no longer changing and our gait and body movements put more pressure in the same areas on our feet repeatedly. This causes problems to develop such as bunions, hammer toe, heel spurs, falling arches and just plain foot pain.
So, on we go living our lives and continuously, without meaning to, abusing our feet, day after day, week after week and year after year, constantly putting various degrees of pressure on our feet and legs.
Women's Feet VS Men's Feet
Women obviously treat their feet differently than men. That is a given fact. Women's feet are not only expected to give them a means of locomotion but they are supposed to look good as they do it. Women are a more social animal than men when it comes to the way that they treat or mistreat their feet.
When they are young girls, they often go barefoot and often are seen walking on their tip toes. Maybe this is innate activity to prepare them for their adult lives but, nonetheless, they act very different when they are young than they do once they start to socialize and mature. Once they reach an age of menses, most of them are beginning to wear shoes with higher heels. As they reach their teens, most girls have begun to destroy their feet by wearing high heeled shoes. Most of them adapt to this torture quite readily and are able to walk quite naturally, after a time, on their toes. Alas, they do look good, for sure.
Men, on the other hand, are never expected to wear shoes that will eventually damage their feet. Most wear flat or near flat shoes for their entire lives. Still, they often develop some form of foot problem later in their lives.
Many times, the initial foot problem for men is a fungus such as athlete's foot, during their young athletic years. Although they actually neglect their feet, the male's feet, in most cases, develops fairly naturally and, unless they have a natural familial disease or condition of the foot later in life, most don't have as many problems with ambulation as women do.
Women's Waterproof Hiking Boots
Women's feet, physical structure, needs and attitudes are quite different than those of men. If that's not evident to you, you just aren't looking close enough. Women, for the most part, are more social animals and whether they admit it or not, though they do demand comfort in a boot that is supposed to protect their feet from earthly encumbrances for lengthy distances and over varying terrain, they also demand a bit of style and fashion. Not a whole lot because, after all, who is going to be out there to actually notice their sense of fashion (you'd be surprised)? The main idea is to include a slight bit of "girlie" into the boots so that they are recognized both as awesome trail boots but also sending the message that "there can be style, even in the boonies."
Waterproof: Today's waterproof footwear is not your Mom's waterproof footwear. In the "old" days (about 20 years ago) a "waterproof" boot was one that was made of leather and coated w/ a water[resistant] spray on material. It last for about a month (if you were lucky) and then the boot was no longer waterproof. Of course, you could always get some more waterproof spray-on coating and apply it once a day or so. The predominant modern waterproof hiking boot is made with Gore-Tex fabric so it is not only waterproof, but it breathes and allows circulation of air. It is also extremely light, so waterproof no longer means a heavy, bulky boot that weighs 4 lbs. Another aspect of the boots of old is that the tops and soles were sewn together and there was a tiny gap in the shoe at this point, regardless of how tiny the stitches were or how tight they were stitched. Water would always manage to find it's way through. Gore-Tex is different and will not allow water through the fabric. It's truly water proof.
Hiking: When you are in the market for hiking boots, you're probably expecting to do some serious hiking over some moderate to highly rough terrain. You don't want to do this wearing sneakers or running shoes. That works for very short distances and then becomes more of a hassle than a help. If you're a woman wanting hiking boots, you're expecting them to protect your feet, have a lightness to them, be waterproof and look good. You can't get all those characteristics with a tennis shoe, sneaker or running shoe. If you're looking for decent traction or lightness, yea, sure, a nice athletic shoe is a good choice but if you're going to be walking for long distances through some serious land changes, you'd better get something that's a bit more supportive and can handle the roughness of the terrain.
Boots: Boots are not good for walking in certain types of terrain. Namely, harsh, sandy desert conditions or flat, asphalt-like conditions for long distances. You'd be better off with hiking shoes or even hiking sandals in those conditions. Hiking boots are great though for walking in rocky, bushy, prickly, extreme cold, rough ground conditions. They will protect you and keep your feet in good condition. Waterproof boots will make sure you don't get blisters caused by turgor rubs and you'll be a whole lot more comfortable. The weight of good waterproof hiking beats is almost as light as hiking shoes because the Gore-Tex materials you'll be wearing just have that kind of nature to them.
So, while we could have put up a site for just "Hiking Shoes" we may have been neglecting a specific type of hiking shoe that would have become lost in the plethora of varieties to be found. So, enjoy the information and let us know what you think.
Do Women's Waterproof Hiking Boots Cause Chafing?
Is it true that women's waterproof hiking boots cause chafing just by their nature of being "waterproof?"
Short answer is an emphatic "no!"
Let's look at what "chafing" is in the first place.
Chafing is when two parts (material and skin) rub against each other and cause irritation to the skin. It's that simple. Once the skin actually begins to break down, it's no longer just chafing. It then becomes "injured skin," or "broken skin," which is a much more serious problem.
Many people believe that certain materials cause chafing just because they don't allow moisture to enter boot. The truth is that moisture is one of the main causes of chafing.
Moisture, when sitting on or around human skin is a nice cleanser, but it also has a property called "turgor", which is the resistance of it's surface to pressure. Guess what? Skin also has "turgor."
When you get two pieces of material, both of which have high turgor, you're going to create friction.
When friction is created on two surfaces rubbing against each other and one of those surfaces is much stronger and more resilient than the other, the weaker of those surfaces is going to break down.
When one of those surfaces is made up of living cells and the other is of another property that is hard and sturdy, the surface made of living cells is going to lose the battle 9 times out of 10, maybe even 10 times out of 10.
When turgor is applied to a non-living surface, as when water is coating a material and it, in turn, rubs against skin, the skin will begin to become irritated and eventually will break open. Before it breaks open, it will become inflamed and will try to protect itself by building a layer of water between it's outer surface and the next layer of skin. This is called a "blister."
As the rubbing continues, the blister grows larger until it finally can hold no more pressure and the membrane holding it together breaks, causing a break in the skin and the introduction of harmful bacteria into that break.
The inflammation process then continues and the open wound gets worse as time goes along.
That's the whole process, starting with the rubbing of the skin by the underlying material.
This only happens when a couple of things occur:
1. The skin on the feet or toes has a lot of undue pressure on it, causing it to rub very hard on the dry material, or,
2. When the non-skin material becomes wet and builds a stronger turgor pressure which causes even comparatively loose fabric to grab hold of skin and abrade it continuously.
So how does one prevent this from happening?
In the past, people would put talcum powder in their boots so that the surfaces would not bind to each other and would slide by each other when pressure was applied. This worked to a certain extent, but then when the surfaces got wet, the talcum powder only added to the problem when it absorbed the moisture.
Many folks also tried wearing thicker socks under their boots. This works for short outings but for long hikes, the thick socks tend to absorb a lot of moisture and hold it, thus causing the turgor problem with increased pressure from the larger socks.
What's the answer to foot chafing and blistering then?
One word: Gore-Tex. Gore-Tex fabrics to be precise.
Gore-Tex allows boot fabrics to circulate air very readily. With the circulation of air, moisture is reduced and actually pulled away from the material toward the outside. When this happens, the materials and skin slide by each other with reduced turgor which is usually of a pressure that the skin can easily tolerate.
The dryer the feet and socks are, the less friction is produced. The less friction produced, the less skin irritation and the more comfort occurs.
So, there you have it. The solution to your waterproof hiking boots.
Women's feet are naturally more dainty, less calcified and tender than most men's feet. This is why it is important that any woman who is intent upon purchasing a high quality pair of waterproof hiking boots be very aware of what they need to prevent chafing, scraping and rubbing on their feet and toes.
It behooves all women to use waterproof hiking boots anytime that they hike. Waterproof hiking shoes may also be adequate, depending upon the terrain they'll be facing and the conditions.
Always take care of your feet and you'll always be able to enjoy a great pastime of hiking in beautiful places.
Guide For Buying Women's Waterproof Hiking Boots
This is definitely not a "tell-all, end-all" guide. This guide for buying women's waterproof hiking boots is compiled from years of experience on the hiking trail and the purchasing of "many" and various types of women's hiking boots. I do know a bit about which I speak but I'm not the final say…. you are, OK?
For any gal who might be planning a long multi-day hike, it would be assumed that they'd be thinking along the lines of hiking boots as the appropriate footwear and waterproof hiking boots as the ultimate hiking footwear.
There are some women who may prefer low-cut hiking shoes as they believe them to be light and less taxing on the energy. However, the women who are most experienced and know better will almost always choose a good, dependable pair of top-of-the-line waterproof hiking boots.
Buying women's waterproof hiking boots that fit right is a very essential part of the process because if you get this part wrong, you're going to be touting some mighty sore dogs for a good while.
Though I don't consider myself any kind of "expert" when it comes to choosing the perfect hiking boots, I am quite an experienced backpacker and I know what one needs for backpacking in general. This usually includes quite a bit of hiking. Here are some of the things that you might want to be thinking about.
* you should always consider buying lightweight hiking boots, for sure because if they're too heavy you'll tire easily. Also, there may be parts of the hike in which you'll be toting your hiking shoes in your backpack and using hiking sandals for flat, even terrain.
* air circulation (breathing) is very essential in order for you to be able to dissipate the sweat or moisture from your feet.
* your hiking boots need to (yes "need" to) be waterproof because you never know when water is going to show up like an unwelcome guest, on a hiking trek. Even muddy areas will cause your feet to get soaked and wet feet mean foot blisters. (You can get Gore-Tex inserts to put inside your boots and this will make them even more waterproof. You can also buy some silicone spray that will do a good job of repelling moisture).
* Lacing your boots should not be a ten minute, frustrating experience. They should easily and quickly lace up and stay tied so you'll be able to continue to move on. There should be a little loop on the top of the cuff, at the back of the boot, that allows you to pull your boot on easily. One problem with these loops on some boots is that they're not even big enough to get your fingers through, much less pull on a pair of boots with them.
Speaking of heels, it's very important that you do not let your heel area slide up and down on your foot because this will inevitably cause some serious blisters. A top-line hiking boot will have a heel lock. This is simply some lacing latches that are slightly recessed from the rest of the lacing grommets, above the heel area. When you pull your lacing, make sure that this area is pulled up very tight. This will keep your heels from sliding up and down.
* When shopping for high quality women's waterproof hiking boots, be certain that you get some with soles that are nice and thick and also very stiff. The reasoning behind this advice is that if you do not get good soles, you're going to wind up bruising your foot bottoms and you'll feel every little pebble and stone that you step on. This gets annoying and painful after a while.
When you get your new hiking boots, don't even think about going on a hiking trip until you break them in. If you do attempt a hiking excursion prior to breaking them in correctly, you'll wind up with stiff shoes that will make your hike miserable. Once they have been broken in well, they should be wonderfully comfortable and give you lots of protection and foot joy.
In order to break them in correctly take short hikes around your neighborhood or general area for a couple of hours at a time. If possible, wear a backpack that is going to weigh approximately the same as the one that you'll be taking on your hiking trip. The whole breaking in portion may actually take several weeks or even months, depending on how much time you take to break them in. You will, however, be very glad that you broke them in correctly once you begin your long hike and if you'll keep in mind that no two pairs of feet are alike, you'll understand why there are so many various and sundry pairs of women's waterproof hiking boots available.
Every women's hiking boot manufacturer has several styles that it specializes in. You can find Gore-Tex lightweight boots or full-grain leather or various types of insoles and padding so it's important that you look for and find the particular hiking boot features that you want in a boot.
Don't try to buy top quality hiking boots from a "standard" shoe store. You will want to look only in "outdoor" stores or sporting goods outlets who have specialty hiking boots in their inventory.
The standard shoe stores will not carry the tough soled, waterproof hiking boots that you need. If you buy a nice looking pair of hiking boots from them, you'll wind up with very sore feet and a bunch of blisters by the time it's all over.
Your outdoor and sporting goods stores should have representatives who are experienced hikers and can show you the best hiking boots to look at and consider. The standard shoe stores will usually just have "sales" persons who will often tell you anything to get you to buy a cheap pair of nice looking worthless hiking boots.
There is information available that discusses the advantages and disadvantages to buying women's waterproof hiking boots both locally and online. You should read that information in order to determine which you prefer.
If you're still confused about whether to buy hiking boots of hiking shoes, here's something to think about. Do you know the terrain you're going to be hiking on? Is it rough and tumble, rocky, uneven terrain? If so, you'd be better off with hiking boots.
If the ground is going to be flat most all the way, with no water crossings (that you know of) and little in the way of uneven ground, you could get by with the hiking shoes.
Regardless of whether you go with the boots or the shoes, buy the highest quality that you can afford because in the world of hiking footwear, you actually do get what you pay for. Be smart use this guide to buying women's waterproof hiking boots to help you wind up with the perfect pair of hiking boots for you.
Lacing Your Hiking Boots For Downhill Trails
Why would you need to lace your hiking boots for downhill hikes?
If you're going to be traversing some very steep trails and going down them, into some valleys or canyons, your toes are going to take some serious beating, even if you have top grade hiking boots.
The reason for this is because when walking downhill, your feet tend to slip forward, further toward the toe box of your boots. As this occurs, your toes will be mashed towards the front of the boot causing tremendous pressure on them.
First of all, before you go on any hiking trip make certain that you clip your toenails as short as possible so there won't be any undue pressure on them from your boots pressing against them on downhill slopes.
If the trail is just a short one, there is probably not much of a problem, however, if the trail is fairly long, even an hours hike, or so, you're going to be suffering some very sore toes, as well as pain in the ball of the foot, before very long.
If you are already wearing some high-quality hiking boots, you're already ahead of the game, especially if you've taken the time to break them in appropriately. Even though they are superior quality boots, they still need to be laced correctly in order for you to keep your foot in the proper area of the boot for as long as possible.
There is a proper way to do this and it will keep your toes a lot more comfortable during the hike. You may have to stop a few times and re-tie the boots but each tying should last quite a while, depending on the grade and your own gait.
The vast majority of top-quality, first grade hiking boots will have some excellent grommets or lace eyelets. There are several types that are found on superior boots.
There are the D-ring types, which are simply metal rings that the laces run through, there are regular O ring grommets and there are also some small pulley-type lacing rings that are popular on certain brands of boots.
Many boots will have the open front or "quick-release" grommets on the upper ankle support region of the boot.
Another thing you may notice on top end boots is that one set of the grommets/eyelets will be set further toward the back of the boot, usually where the lower region attaches to the ankle cuff.
This off-set grommet is also known as the "heel lock."
The proper way to lace your hiking boots when anticipating a steep downhill path is as follows:
Tighten your lower lacings rather loosely. Not so loose that your foot slips a lot but just loosen them up a little so there's some give in the laces.
Now, the last grommet prior to the ankle cuff, you'll want to pull very tight. Next, you should be going through the "heel lock." Again, tighten the laces very snug in this area.
Through the next set of grommets, lace up normally (not extremely tight and not too loose). Remember, your crisscrossing with each grommet set.
Now, make the rest of the loops, to the top very snug and make your usual bow knot. Not so snug that you cut off your blood supply but tight enough that they're very snug and you can still move your toes easily.
Now, just tie another cross knot with your laces and pull them tight. They should not come loose from this position.
When you tie your boots like this what you're doing is allowing the heel lock and the upper lacings to hold your ankle and, thus, your foot further towards the back of your boot, allowing your toes to move freely in the toebox, even on a downhill slope.
If you're not sure whether or not this method will work, we advise you to tie only one of your boots in this manner and then tie the other in your normal walking manner and compare the pain in your feet after walking downhill for about 100 yards or so.
You'll be a believer by then.
Again, when you start to feel your toes binding up, it is probably time to take a break, sit down and re-tie the boots.

… or, Welcome to the World of WTF
By no means a computer geek, ever since acquiring my first Mac, computers have fascinated me. In addition to quickly mastering the basics, I rapidly discovered the elasticity of the term "end-user". A visit with my sister and her roommate, both of whom react to IT or online anything with a bewildered (or frantic) WTF, forcefully reminded me that all end-users are not created equal.
I cut my IT teeth on a Macintosh Plus way back in 1991. It was not mine exactly. My then boyfriend—let's call him Calvin—bought it used from a friend who was upgrading to the just-released Classic II. A skilled junior high school history teacher, he thought it might come in handy for typing tests, recording grades and such. He unpacked his newest acquisition, scanned the manual and, congenitally impatient, gave up. Connecting the dots, connecting the parts, fell to me as did learning to use the thing once booted up.
Not smarter or, to be fair, more patient than Calvin, clearly Mac developers had me in mind when they created their product. That machine was up and running in no time, and I couldn't have been happier.
Calvin eventually (many months later) drifted back towards the machine and asked for a quick tutorial. I complied then left him alone to noodle, which is (IMHO) the cornerstone of knowledge acquisition.
Five minutes later, a panicked shout (Shit!) from Calvin summoned me back to the study. The problem? He had run the mouse to the edge of the mouse pad and the cursor was still far from where he wanted it. Why he thought the pad was magic I'll never know. But, it was then that I realized a fundamental truth: not everyone simply gets computers.
Now nearly 25 years later, when visiting my sister over the holidays, I came face-to-face on proof positive that this most fundamental fact still obtains . In fact, I have to credit my sister Anita for suggesting the subtitle for this post.
Anita invited me to spend Christmas with her. I gladly accepted. When I arrived both she and her roommate were in a tizzy. After years of living more or less IT-free in rural Massachusetts (email, texting their teenagers and checking into Facebook four times a year don't count), fate had driven both to seek jobs in sectors that required computer skills and a modicum of digital literacy. What job, you might ask, doesn't require these skills? Lots but that's another post.
So, while neither needed help in the kitchen (thank God!), they did need help tackling a very steep learning curve. Fast.
Over the next ten days, I spent a great many hours delivering mini on-the-fly 101 tutorials on a range of software, platforms, apps and practices: e.g., how to transfer photos from a bunch of maxed out SD cards (stored in a recycled mints tin) to a local drive (to be double extra sure) and a cloud-based storage platform, how to navigate and use Word more efficiently using shortcuts, how to get control of Word using default configurations, how to enter a line break in an Excel cell, how to set up an event on FB, what are hashtags in Twitter and if/how to use them, how to quickly delete quote delimiters from a sloppy legacy DB dump and migrate the data to a more powerful tool, the pros and cons of different blogger platforms, how to buy a domain name, etc.
Some questions I really had to think about because so much of what I do I do on auto-pilot. The real challenge was not to assume anything about what my sister and her roommate understood and to ratchet back the information to the barebones basics.
Having just met the roommate, I don't know her strengths. Anita's skills, however, have always blown me away.
She knows way more than I about so many things. She is an experienced community builder who knows a lot about rural and small town living. In the kitchen, she can transform disparate ingredients into a delicious meal without ever consulting a recipe. With her box of various tools and skills honed through years of practice, she can transform discarded furniture, second hand clothes, fabric and found objects into things of beauty. With a keen eye for space and colour, she can turn a dilapidated house into a cozy home. Unfortunately, I suspect that she is not the end-user IT developers have in mind.
The digital shift has organizations big and small reeling to adjust. Individuals whose skills command less respect and ever lower wages are also hustling to tool up and acquire the knowledge to survive in an IT-driven work and life environment. And as hard as developers try to imagine the end-user, their products still baffle many.
Since I can work remotely, I decided to stick around to help my sister settle in to her new job as the executive director of a community arts non-profit. She's feeding me great food and I get to wear all her great funky clothes. In return, I can share what I know about everything IT and online. That's what biz wonks call win-win.

Alternative Dispute Resolution in Texas - Litigation and appeals involving issues in mediation, arbitration, and other means of nonjudicial conflict resolution and settlement.
Tuesday, May 20, 2008
Family Code trumps CPRC provision permitting interlocutory appeal of order confirming arbitration award
Houston Court of Appeals rules that prohibition of temporary order appeals in family cases extends to order confirming an arbitration award arising from an agreement to mediate/arbitrate temporary orders issues in a pending divorce case involving children. Finding it lacks jurisdiction, the appellate court declines to reach the merits and dismisses the attempted interlocutory appeal. O P I N I O N This is an attempted appeal from an interlocutory order signed October 31, 2007, confirming an arbitration award on temporary orders entered in a pending divorce and suit affecting the parent-child relationship (SAPCR). Because we lack jurisdiction over this interlocutory appeal, we dismiss. Texas strongly encourages alternative dispute resolution, particularly in family law matters. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. ' 154.002 (Vernon 2005).[1] The Family Code expressly permits binding arbitration in divorce and SAPCR cases. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. '' 6.601, 153.0071 (Vernon 2005 & Supp. 2007).[2] The parties agreed to mediate before Judge Maryellen Hicks and reached an agreed binding mediated settlement agreement (MSA) as to temporary orders pending conclusion of the divorce. The agreement provided that if any dispute arose as to the entry of the temporary orders, the dispute would be resolved in binding arbitration before Judge Hicks. Specifically, the MSA provided as follows: Said Arbitrator may decide what constitutes substantial compliance with all terms, and any omitted terms, of this Agreement that were discussed and agreed upon in the mediation. Maryellen W. Hicks may make disposing decisions concerning the language of this Order and submit the draft approved by her to the Court for signature and entry. Appellant was ordered to pay certain fees, including attorney's fees, as part of the MSA, and the parties returned to arbitration when a dispute arose over compliance with these orders. It is from the confirmation of the arbitration award ordering compliance with the temporary orders that this appeal arises.[3] Generally, appeals may be taken only from final judgments. Lehmann v. Har‑Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). Interlocutory orders may be appealed only when expressly permitted by statute. Bally Total Fitness Corp. v. Jackson, 53 S.W.3d 352, 352 (Tex. 2001); Jack B. Anglin Co., Inc. v. Tipps, 842 S.W.2d 266, 272 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding ). Texas courts strictly construe statutes authorizing interlocutory appeals. America Online, Inc. v. Williams, 958 S.W.2d 268, 271 (Tex. App.CHouston [14th Dist.] 1997, no writ). The Texas Family Code specifically precludes the interlocutory appeal of temporary orders, except those appointing a receiver. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 6.507 (Vernon 2006); see also Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 105.001(e) (Vernon 2006) (stating temporary orders in suits affecting the parent‑child relationship are not subject to interlocutory appeal). Because it appeared to this court that appellant is attempting to appeal temporary orders, which the Family Code expressly prohibits, notification was transmitted to the parties of this court's intention to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction unless appellant filed a response demonstrating grounds for continuing the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). Appellant filed a response to our notice, asserting that the appeal is permitted by Section 171.098 of the Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code, which provides for an appeal of an order confirming an arbitration award. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. ' 171.098(a) (Vernon 2005). Section 311.026 of the Texas Government Code provides that when two statutes are in conflict with each other, the specific statute "prevails as an exception to the general" statute. Tex. Gov't Code Ann. ' 311.026(b) (Vernon 2005). Applying this principle, Texas courts of appeals have held that the specific Family Code provision limiting temporary order appeals controls over the general statute in the Civil Practice and Remedies Code permitting interlocutory appeals from temporary injunctions. See, e.g., Marley v. Marley, No. 01-05-00992-CV, 2006 WL 3094325, at *2 (Tex. App.- Houston [1st Dist.] 2006, pet. denied) (mem. op.) (holding section 51.014(4) of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code permitting appeals from temporary injunctions did not control over prohibition in section 6.502 of interlocutory appeals from temporary orders in divorce proceedings); Cook v. Cook, 886 S.W.2d 838, 839 (Tex. App.- Waco 1994, no writ) (rejecting argument that section 51.014(4) allowed an interlocutory appeal from temporary orders issued under Family Code section 3.58, the identical former version of section 6.502). Because sections 6.507 and 105.001(e) of the Family Code apply specifically to divorce and SAPCR proceedings, they prevail over the application of the general arbitration statute, section 171.098 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Appellant also asserts that the Family Code prohibition on appeals from temporary orders does not apply because the order being appealed is not an order entered under Title 1, Subchapter F of the Family Code, governing Temporary Orders, but is instead under Subchapter G, providing for alternative dispute resolution, including arbitration. This argument ignores the fact that the arbitration in this case concerned temporary orders entered during the pendency of the divorce. We hold that the trial court's order confirming a binding arbitration order entered during the pendency of a divorce and SAPCR proceeding may not be challenged by interlocutory appeal. Therefore, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed. PER CURIAM Judgment rendered and Opinion filed May 15, 2008. Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Fowler and Boyce. [1] "It is the policy of this state to encourage the peaceable resolution of disputes, with special consideration given to disputes involving the parent‑child relationship, including the mediation of issues involving conservatorship, possession and support of children, and the early settlement of pending litigation through voluntary settlement procedures." Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. ' 154.002 (Vernon 2005). [2] "On written agreement of the parties, the court may refer a suit for dissolution of a marriage to arbitration. The agreement must state whether the arbitration is binding or nonbinding." Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 6.601 (Vernon 2005); see also Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 153.0071 (Vernon Supp. 2007) (same for a SAPCR). [3] "If the parties agree to binding arbitration, the court shall render an order reflecting the arbitrator's award.)." Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 6.601(b) (Vernon 2005). "If the parties agree to binding arbitration, the court shall render an order reflecting the arbitrator's award unless the court determines at a non-jury hearing that the award is not in the best interest of the child." Tex. Fam. Code Ann. ' 153.0071(b) (Vernon Supp. 2007) Mason v. Mason, No. 14-07-00991-CV (Tex.App.- Houston [14th Dist.] May 15, 2008)(per curiam) (family court mediation and arbitration, no interlocutory appeal of order on motion to confirm arbitration award in suit affecting the parent-child relationship, divorce case) Full case style: Jason S. Mason v. Patricia A. Mason Appeal from 308th District Court of Harris County Trial Court Judge: Judge Georgia Dempster

When you watch the crash tests, you see that a Gunner Kennel is not an ordinary dog crate. #MansBestKennelPosted by Gunner Kennels on Thursday, February 4, 2016
The Safe Variocage Compact model dog travel crate was designed for vehicles where a threshold or sill is present at the rear cargo door area. The crash tested safe Variocage Compact features a raised front door. The reason for the raised front door is to clear the threashold with no special mounting and without using a platform. You will have lots of space for those all important additional take along items because the Variocage has a small footprint.
VarioCage, By 4x4NorthAmerica from 4x4 North America on Vimeo.
You can travel safe when you use the ONLY Crash Tested dog travel cage in the world!
Variocage is the ONLY Crash Tested Cage Rated Using Government Safety Standards.
Some considerations when determining size are;
You may have other considerations when selecting a Variocage dog travel crate that are specific to your requirements.
Proper Technique for Measuring your Dog for a MIM Safe Variocage
Here are some helpful hints when measuring your dog for a MIM Safe Variocage.
Please note that it is important to measure your dog first before measuring your vehicle. Proper fit for your dog is vital to your dog's comfort and safety.
Hold the measuring tape in one hand and place the free end at the front edge of your dog's nose pulling it straight back to the base of his tail. This will give you the length measurement for your dog. You will need to add Three (3) inches to allow the dog room to turn around in the MIM Safe Variocage.
Place the tape at the top of the shoulder and measure down to the floor to get a proper height measurement. Add Three (3) inches to give the dog plenty of room if he wants to stand up.
Be sure to estimate your dog's adult size if you order his crate while he is still growing. You can check his breed standard to get an estimate of what size he will reach at maturity to make sure your crate is large enough.
Proper measuring will assure that your pet can comfortably stand, sit, turn around, and lie down in his cage. You can always add a divider panel in the MIM Safe Variocage Double if necessary, and reserve the remaining space until your pet grows into it.
As a general rule, if you're not sure which size to select, choose a larger size.
Check to see if your vehicle has a raised sill at the rear cargo entrance. If the sill is raised, you should put something flat under the cage so its doors can open correctly. We recommend rigid foam board insulation to minimize interference with your car's crumple zone. The floor of the cargo area should be flat.
1. Measure the narrowest usable area across the floor of the cargo area where you would position the crate (A)
(Note: The narrowest usable area is often between the rear wheel wells or at the bottom of the cargo door entrance.)
2. Measure the top of the cargo area which is typically narrower than the usable floor space (B)
(Note: The left and right side of the dog cage are angled. Total cage width is approximately 4″ narrower at the top.)
3. Measure the usable length of the cargo floor from the back seat to the door sill (C)
(Note: The front and back of the dog cage are angled. Total cage length is approximately 12″ narrower at the top.)
4. Measure the height from the cargo floor to the lowest point at the top of the cargo door entrance (D)
(Note: Be sure to measure the shortest point which is often at the sides of the cargo entrance not in the middle.)

Wonderful Physician
I did extensive research in my search for a good OB Gyn. After several recommendations I was referred to Dr. Mondestin for my first pregnancy. I came in with many questions and fears yet she was able to patiently sit with me and answer each of my questions and made me feel comfortable despite all of my concerns. She conducted herself in a professional yet welcoming manner. It was exactly what a new mother needs when embarking upon this new path. I highly recommend her to my family and friends.

Big NO !!!
I was 12 weeks pregnant when I met Dr Mondestin. I knew I had complication in my pregnancy with big fibroids outside my cavity, but talking to this Doctor was so depressing. She told me the worst possible things that could happen in my life. And she was embarrassing me as she was waiting to see my reaction to every worst thing that she was telling me. Don't go this doctor. No professionalism, no sense of behaving. It was my first and last meet with her. I have found much better doctor.

Outstanding bedside manner
Dr. M was an amazing physician while I was in her care. I saw her and the staff at the hospital more often than a typical patient due to my age and other medical history. Each time I went, she was thorough in her examinations and explanations. She asked me questions and didn't just tell me what I had to do. Because of her expert knowledge she and her staff detected a rare condition I had during the last trimester of my pregnancy, which could have been fatal to my baby. She acted quickly in response and while I was on hospital bed rest for over 6 weeks, she called and visited even though she was not my attending physician. She knew I was going through some traumatic events in my life simultaneous to the pregnancy complication and was compassionate, concerned, and sensitive to my situation. I didn't just consider her my doctor, I considered her a friend during an extremely trying time in my life. She exhibited skills that can't be taught in medical school. She has the human touch.

What is an HCP? A license to kill endangered species.
When it comes to Green Diamond and Pacific Lumber, a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) is basically an agreement with the government accepting greater environmental protections in some areas in exchange for permits to kill endangered species and/or destroy their habitat. This opens up forest areas that were formerly off-limits. The permits are called "Incidental Take" permits.
The US Fish and Wildlife Service says, "Take" is defined in the Act as any action that would "harrass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture or collect," any threatened or endangered species. It also includes significant habitat destruction that could harm a listed species.
Lumber companies like Green Diamond don't just agree to extra environmental restrictions because they were in a good mood. There has to be a financial incentive somewhere in the plan. My real question is where , geographically, is Green Diamond's financial incentive in being allowed to "Take" endangered species?

For my birthday – yes, it was the big 5-0 – I asked my husband for a FitBit One. It's a tiny little electronic device that helps you track your movement, including the number of steps you take throughout the course of your day and how you sleep. It comes with an account on the FitBit website and it synchs wirelessly through your computer or iPhone.
I clip mine onto my bra strap or put it in a pants pocket, depending on what I'm wearing. After using it for the last four days, I'm actually having fun tracking my food, my activity, my blood pressure and heart rate, and my sleep habits. (Surprise! I've never found tracking anything to be fun.)
These first few days, I've simply been tracking my normal eating and fitness habits. I'll use it as a starting point for improvement over the next 90 days to see how it works.
I'm really pleased that my husband got one, too, and seems to be even more interested in using it than I am. We're enjoying comparing our numbers and trying to figure out how the FitBit knows when we've gone up stairs. (Yes, I've tried to imitate walking up and down, which looks really goofy, though I can't fool it.)
I'll keep you posted on how the FitBit works, since this week, I will be using it to upgrade my activity and nutrition stats.
What about you? Have you ever used an electronic device to help improve your fitness efforts?

Sports nutrition is an interesting subject and debates can get heated, especially when it comes to crossing the line between nutrition and doping. But where does it all start? With a proper diet of course. A lot of people don't realize that the key to great sports performance is the proper food combined with proper sleep every night.
But beyond that there are supplements and some of them can help. For example you may not be getting enough vitamins in you current diet, in this case you will definitely want to look into supplementation to cure key vitamin deficiencies. Idealist on Campus is going to bring you the best supplements that do not cross the line when it comes to sporting performance.


text: The idea of living in the moment or taking one day at a time has become my mantra lately. I can't figure out if it's because I'm a mom and I know that every day my children are getting a little bit older, or if it's because I'm getting a little bit older everyday. Life sometimes feels like I'm circling around in a tornado and there's no way out, but not in a way that I feel trapped by my life, but more-so trapped by time and it's non-stop aggressive need to continue without my consent. There never seems to be a moment where we can stop, slow down, and really look at each other, see what we're doing and feeling and then react accordingly. I want to be present every day, in every moment and enjoy them, but I feel the nagging tug in my brain that I can't waste time and I need to accomplish as much as possible with the time that I have. What's the answer for slowing down? Is it taking a family vacation or just simply recognizing that there is a need to be conscious of every day life moments and have the self-awareness to stop and be present for them? I look back at the last 5 years of my life and I know that we've accomplished so much as a family and also individually, but I'm not able to create clear images in my head. It looks like when you flip through a picture book as fast as you can and see blurry images, but not the clear pictures explaining what the story is really about. I feel guilty even spending time typing this out, when I should be doing 500 other things, but then I also want to be able to balance my own needs. Is this normal mom guilt or what? I also don't want to make it seem like I'm sad about life in any way. I freaking love life. I am incredibly in love with what I have right now and the loving, beautiful relationships that I've developed with so many people. I've always had a weird feeling that the creation of time and the boundaries we've created for ourselves are too restricting and hold us back from living a full life. I'm working on appreciating everything that happens. The good, bad, sad, ugly and beautiful and I think that's a start.

Sparkly Vampires Are Still Evil
"Or, I be suspicious of, to ancestors of us who are fans of traditional vampire tales, same" evil. For instance vampires don't flash, dammit! Evangelist Pat Robertson agrees, whereas to be fair Robertson has accused just about everything in the modern world of to the same extent evil at one time or diverse - not just the prevailing targets all but gays and pagans, but also non-Christians, peculiar leaders, abhor crime laws, feminists, and the list goes on. Stephanie Meyer's frosting of shiny faithfulness on the white myth of the vampire was not a lot to tease this religious holy man. No, Robertson only this minute shook his long-suffering consider at the "Sundown" acknowledgment, claiming that its fans were warm demonic pay for.
Responding a a outsider subject matter about whether the series promotes witchcraft, Robertson recounted a story of demon pay for told to him by a friend. According to Robertson, the demon in subject matter "had lawlessness" to hold a immature girl for instance she had been enticed by the timeless love story of Edward Cullen and Bella Swagger. "It opened the entry to demonic power. Yes, I cautious ancestors vampire movies are evil," rumored Robertson. "Communicate are no vampires. The whole thing is demonic."
At negligible I'll say he's identical. Brightness Wicca gets the exact gathering. I do cautious it's pleasant of out of the ordinary to juxtapose (A) introduce are no vampires with (B) the whole thing is demonic. I moderator what I can keep on not worth it from ancestors two statements is that Robertson has encouraged beyond condemning real belongings and encouraged on to unreal ones. One wonders whether being may well be an sincere aficionada of his building and enfold to dodge all the belongings he condemns. Not modestly do you bind to be Christian, unguarded, xenophobic, and devoted, but you can't bind an invention either.
Then anew, possibly he's just hard to exchange the world from Cullenism. That, at negligible, strikes me as a creditable purpose.

An American truck for a very American record.
Yesterday wasn't Independence Day nor was it Flag Day, but even so Ford decided Saturday morning would be the appropriate time for the 2017 Ford F-450 Super Duty to establish a new and very patriotic Guinness World Record for the "World's Largest Flag Pulled by a Moving Vehicle." It was a successful attempt after pulling a 45 by 92 foot (4,124 square feet) U.S. flag. The record-breaking attempt took place at Homestead-Miami Speedway's 1.5-mile track in Florida and it took down the previous record established on September 28 by a Chevrolet with a 3,203 square feet flag at Texas Motor Speedway.
The torquetastic V8 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel engine with its 925 pound-feet (1,254 Newton-meters) and 440 horsepower (328 kilowatts) enables the truck to tow a maximum of 32,500 pounds (14,741 kilograms), so you can imagine it had no problems whatsoever towing the immense U.S. flag.
There were a few conditions the F-450 Super Duty had to meet in order to establish a new record, one of which was to travel beyond the 328 feet (100 meters) previous record mark and it had to do it without the flag touching the ground at all. That it did by covering a certified distance of 360 feet (109 meters) without the flag every hitting the track. The truck actually covered four full laps around the circuit where the Ford Championship Weekend takes place and where the truck is going to put on a show this afternoon as part of the festivities organized before the start of the Ford EcoBoost 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship race.
In order to make it all happen, Ford had to build 45-foot riggings from eyelet to eyelet to enable the 2017 F-450 Super Duty haul the U.S. flag, which was launched and retrieved by a team of 20 people.

CEDAR Electrodynamics Thermosphere Ionosphere (ETI) Challenge for systematic assessment of ionosphere/thermosphere models: Electron density, neutral density, NmF2, and hmF2 using space based observations
This is a companion to DOI:10.1029/2011SW000727
Corresponding author: J. S. Shim, Goddard Planetary Heliophysics Institute, University of Maryland Baltimore County, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA. (firstname.lastname@example.com)
[1] In an effort to quantitatively assess the current capabilities of Ionosphere/Thermosphere (IT) models, an IT model validation study using metrics was performed. This study is a main part of the CEDAR Electrodynamics Thermosphere Ionosphere (ETI) Challenge, which was initiated at the CEDAR workshop in 2009 to better comprehend strengths and weaknesses of models in predicting the IT system, and to trace improvements in ionospheric/thermospheric specification and forecast. For the challenge, two strong geomagnetic storms, four moderate storms, and three quiet time intervals were selected. For the selected events, we obtained four scores (i.e., RMS error, prediction efficiency, ratio of the maximum change in amplitudes, and ratio of the maximum amplitudes) to compare the performance of models in reproducing the selected physical parameters such as vertical drifts, electron and neutral densities, NmF2, and hmF2. In this paper, we present the results from comparing modeled values against space-based measurements including NmF2 and hmF2 from the CHAMP and COSMIC satellites, and electron and neutral densities at the CHAMP satellite locations. It is found that the accuracy of models varies with the metrics used, latitude and geomagnetic activity level.

This is so lovely! For some reason, there is a pertness, a cuteness about your silhouette with the guitar that reminds me of Maria in the Sound of music singing as she walks down the lane :) - MariaSibyllaReplyDeleteReplies
Hahaha nooooooo! I used to work at a movie theatre where we showed the sing-a-long version of The Sound of Music for a week and those customers were the worst - I've not been able to watch it since.Delete
this image niceReplyDelete
