(News Release) - The Decorah Eagles laid egg number one at 4:55pm on February 23rd, 2014. This marks egg #18 for our eagle couple. If past years are a guide, we can expect two more eggs to be laid over the next seven or eight days. Both eagles will take turns incubating the eggs, which should begin hatching 35-39 days after the first egg was laid.
The Decorah pair became international stars in 2011, when their nest went viral. To date, over 280 million people from 84 countries have followed the eagle family from eggs to fledgling birds, watching every aspect of life in a wild nest. We've seen the adults protect eggs and eaglets in raging snowstorms, stand guard against marauding animals, and feed their ever-growing and always hungry young. Thanks to satellite technology, we're still following a bird who fledged in 2011. Bald eagle D1 has logged well over 2,000 miles, flying from northeast Iowa to Hudson's Bay twice. We can hardly wait to see where she goes next!
The eagles can be watched live at http://www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles. The current camera set-up includes a remotely operated PTZ camera, a fixed infra-red cam for night viewing, and audio. Moderated chat is available on ustream from 8 AM – 8 PM, Central Standard Time, seven days weekly. We also have a facebook page and forum. Go to http://www.raptorresource.org for links.
We hope everyone enjoys watching the family this year!

WINNESHIEK COUNTY (KWWL) - After a year away from the spotlight, the Decorah eagles are getting ready to lay their eggs.
And this year, the world will be watching once again. The Eagle Cam is making Decorah a destination..
The Decorah Eagle Cams have become a worldwide phenomenon thanks to the internet.
Many times, Bob Anderson is at the controls.
He's the director of the Raptor Resource Project.
"There's something that takes place psychologically with bird cams and something as popular as the Decorah Eagle Cam. Somewhere between 50 and 500 hours of watching it, it becomes your eagles. I see that. It becomes their birds and they have to come here to see their birds," said Anderson.
Visitors from around the world come to Winneshiek County to see the eagles in their natural habitat. Now, last year, the eagles decided not to be in a nest that was videotaped so the numbers dropped slightly. This year, that's not expected to be the case.
That's because last year's nest is now surrounded by cameras, too.
It's about 300 feet from the other nest with cameras.
The nests are now the top destination in Decorah.
"Last year, when the camera was not on them, the numbers dropped drastically. 2 years ago, we were much busier than we were last year," said Bill Kalishek, a fisheries biologist at the nearby Decorah Fish Hatchery.
The eagles activity can be entertaining, soothing, but most of all a learning opportunity.
"Because we have infrared cameras, we've learned bald eagles come and go during the night. We didn't know that," said Anderson.
Besides cameras on the other nest, also new this year are cameras on a nest along the Mississippi River near Glen Haven, Wisconsin in Grant County.
People can watch both at the same time.
"We know this pair brings in trout and squirrels, a lot of squirrels. The pair on the Mississippi River brings in fish and ducks so I do see a little change in what they bring in for chow," said Anderson.
Anderson expects eggs to be laid in the next few weeks.
Then, the world will watch.
The cameras are running now, so you can watch the eagles continue to build their nest to anticipate their new arrivals.

Two staffers at McNair Discovery Learning Academy in DeKalb County talked to FOX 5 about Tuesday's tense situation involving a gunman on the school's campus.Authorities say 20-year-old Michael Brandon Hill walked into the main administrative office of the school armed with an AK-47 and almost 500 rounds of ammunition. He fired at the floor before being talked down by school bookkeeper Antoinette Tuff. The school's cafeteria manager, Malcolm Quillens, said he had no idea of the crisis Tuff was dealing with when he walked in on the two. He said that he thought the gunman was a parent until Hill ordered him to leave and then opened fire."Just the mere fact that he shot the gun was threatening. He didn't seem mean but more agitated," Quillens said. The cafeteria manager said he hesitated to leave Tuff alone in the room with the gunman, but he said the bookkeeper gave him a reassuring look. Quillens said he ran to alert other staff members."For her to make me aware calmly -- 'Mr. Quillens, he is not kidding, this is not a joke, he's serious,' -- she is phenomenal , just to hear what she was saying and how she was poised, and for me to leave and look at her and feel no panic in her eyes," Quillens said.Media specialist Harold Grant thought the gunfire was part of a drill until he saw Quillens running. "I was out locking the media center doors, and as I made it to the last door, that's when I encountered Mr. Quillens running out of the mail room and he was screaming, 'A gunman,'" Grant said. "That is when I noticed the intruder come out of the office door and I noticed the gun beside him and that is when I ran back."Grant sent text messages to colleagues warning them to lock their doors and hide their students. "The staff, we're a family, knowing that we are all OK and just recognizing everyone as a whole, because everyone did their part to make this a happy ending," Grant said. On Friday, the Obama administration congratulated the school's faculty, staff and students for how they responded to the terrifying situation. Via a video conference, U.S. Education Secretary Arnie Duncan addressed the school for about 30 minutes, honoring their collective bravery and celebrating there were no casualties.Secretary Duncan expressed not only his thanks, but also that of President Obama.

Just more motivatation for Eli Manning to win another one
Its funny with you guys. I defend the defense, I defend the O line, I defend Nicks and Cruz, but if I'm down on the QB that makes me "negative".
and why do you have to bring posters names into it at all. What did you call me? Miserable? You just can't make your case about the game so you resort to going after your fellow Giants fans. Guys like you are a dime a dozen.
"Phil Simms is the greatest QB in Giants history" ........Mahatma Gandhi
No you think the team is Eli Manning. I think the team in 53 guys who play their asses off. The problem is that when I defend other players you interpret that as a knock on Eli.
Again, it seems that you think Eli is the team.

You should also know the technical side of building the site. If it seems hard on your part, let someone do it for you. Whenever you plan how to blog, you should spend more time on it until it excites the audiences you want to target. Check out some more great blogging tips here.

This will sound weird. In fact nobody has ever written this before, but the citizens of Detroit owe Republicans in the legislature a huge thank you.
That's not a misprint.
For years the norm has been Republicans made political hay by beating up on the city and getting re-elected by opposing anything that even looked like help for the state's most desperate city.
In fact years ago, Republicans piece by piece dismantled state aid for cultural institutions in Detroit and shifted those funds to Grand Rapids.
But wonder of wonders, the GOP has provided some 3M: Major Motown Momentum.
The Mike Ilitich family got assistance from the state for a $650 million project that, if it gets off the ground, could provide a new home for the Red Wings, assuming they ever play hockey again. It will also supposedly result in $1.8 million in economic growth.
Because the majority of house Democrats from Detroit refused to vote for the bill, it took a boat load of Republicans to join with four Detroit lawmakers who did vote yes, to get it passed.
Put another way, without GOP help, the project sits on the drafting board.
There's more.
Detroit and Southeast Michigan have steadfastly refused to put their parochial interests aside to bring a modern mass transit system to the region. 40 years of bickering may now be over, but one is never sure on this one, because Republicans provided the votes to create a new authority with a means to raise money to finally get this done.
Detroit will also get a new lighting authority to begin the slow process of turning back on the 40% of the street lights that don't work. Republicans got that job done, too.
Give the governor credit here, too as his legislative arm twisters worked long and hard for the city and now as the dust settles, Mayor Dave Bing and company have some renewed hope which has been sorely lacking.
Of course Detroit lawmakers are not so pleased with the new Emergency Manager bill but it really doesn't impact the city right now. The governor already has the authority to send in a czar to takeover the city if the current tenuous talks to avoid that don't pan out.
But three out of four for the city ain't bad. And Republicans should take a bow for doing something positive for a change.

For the first time ever, four generations are involved in agriculture. You have the matures (ages 62 and over), baby boomers (ages 43 – 61), generation X (ages 31 – 42) and generation Y (ages 13 – 30).
Chris Barron, an Iowa farmer and a Top Producer columnist, says you should define all of the people in your operation, in terms of their generational group, and then determine how each individual would like to communicate.
Barron says the matures believe that hard work and dedication lead to rewards.
They are:
He says matures tend to struggle with diversity and change, and technology.
The baby boomers are considered the "me" generation. They tend to be:
Barron says baby boomers don't deal with conflict or diversity well. Also, they tend to be self-promoting.
Generation X are known as the "latchkey kids," meaning that their parents both worked, which caused them to be independent.
Their common characteristics are:
Barron says Generation X tends to be open to receiving feedback and are good at networking.
Generation Y, is more cooperative and civic-minded, Barron says.
This generation tends to:
Typically Generation Y is good at multitasking and appreciates diversity. They also tend to have strong parental attachments and need more recognition.
Barron believes a rapid transition will occur in the age of those in charge of farm operations. He says this could be a big opportunity for those who want to expand. "The average age of producers is pushing 60. We all know a cycle is coming, we just don't know when."

A bride-to-be says she is out $3,000 after a wedding venue has been shut down due to zoning violations.
Pinnacle Vista Villas in north Phoenix has been cited by the city of Phoenix's Planning and Development Department for not being zoned properly. The site is currently zoned for single-family use. In order to operate commercially, city officials say dust proofing, parking and handicap accessibility upgrades must be made.
"I don't even know if it's a describable thing. I was devastated," said bride-to-be Karsen Kramer when she found out the venue could not be used in its current condition.Kramer, who lives in Wisconsin but is originally from the Phoenix area, planned to get married at Pinnacle Vista Villa this September. She paid the venue $3,000 to hold the space.
"To me that's a lot of money. That's a lot of my hard-earned dollars. [It's] a lot of my dad's hard-earned dollars," she said in an interview via Skype. CBS 5 went to the Pinnacle Vista Villa to try to get answers. The place was empty, but we were able to finally get someone on the phone Monday afternoon. "We haven't shut our doors yet, even though we have a cease and desist. We are addressing every issue that the city has," said Terry, the person who answered the phone at Pinnacle Vista Villa. He did not give his last name. "We don't have any weddings in June, July or August and we're starting construction soon," he continued.
"For the folks that are concerned that there isn't going to be a change, will there be refunds issued?" asked CBS 5's Greg Argos.
"Uh, it's a possibility," responded Terry. Kramer said she does not think she'll ever get a refund. However, she simply wants other people considering booking the venue to know the issues she has gone through. "I don't know if we're going to get married this year because of it," she said.Besides posting 'Danger' signs warning people to keep out of this building, the city of Phoenix has also issued civil penalties against the owners of this property.

What You Don't Know About Diabetes...
By Karin Evans
Ten months ago, I wound up in an emergency room when my body began to melt into sugar. I know that sounds melodramatic, but that's what happened.
For at least a year I'd been feeling pretty tired, but I kept chalking it up to my late-in-life role as the mother of two young daughters, plus hormonal changes, too many deadlines, and too little sleep. Besides, I was doing a lot of things to take care of myself: eating healthfully, running every day, practicing yoga when I could. But overall, my energy was droopy and getting worse.
I went for a checkup. The doctor did the standard tests, asked the standard questions. "Getting enough sleep?" "As much as I can," I answered with a shrug. I had other, minor, complaints—blurry vision, numb fingers, a pain in the ball of one foot—and was sent to the appropriate specialists. I was given reassurances, eyedrops, a wrist brace. And so I went home, vowing to pop a few more vitamins, have a massage, get to bed earlier.
Then I started feeling fluish. I figured it was just the generic winter cold or flu, but it hung on for two weeks, then three. A month later I could hardly get out of bed. I began to crave liquids, my feet flopped when I walked, and my mind began to work strangely. My eyes became so blurry that I couldn't read my computer screen or watch the nightly news. When I stepped on the scale, I found I had lost five pounds, even though I had stopped exercising by this point. The next week I lost five more.
"I think I'm dying," I said casually to my husband. The colors of the room seemed brighter and my head was filled with German and Mandarin, languages I had studied but didn't normally speak. "This can't go on," he said, so the next day I dragged myself to a new physician.
The doctor listened and sent for the nurse, who pricked my finger and tested my blood. The doctor looked at the results and whistled softly. "You have diabetes," he said. Then he sent me to the emergency room.
I lay in the ER with an insulin drip in my arm while they did a bunch of tests. Then they told me I had something called diabetic ketoacidosis, which is basically a way station on the road to a diabetic coma. In this state, blood sugar levels are sky high. My reading was 675. Yours, if you are reading this, don't have diabetes, and have not just consumed a huge banana split, is probably around 80 or 110 max.
The young nurse who took care of me kept shaking her head. "When they said we had a case of ketoacidosis, I kept looking around the ER for someone really overweight and in bad shape. I couldn't believe it was you."
"Me either," I said weakly. It's not that I thought diabetes was a rare illness. I'd read the statistics. In this country, an estimated one out of three people born in the year 2000 will develop the disease. And I'd heard enough about the complications that can ensue—blindness, heart attack, amputation, and kidney failure—to know that diabetes is a very scary disease.
What I didn't...

out of 10
MCT (medium chain triglyceride) oil has recently topped the list as one of the more effective natural compounds for energy and thermogenic enhancement. This remarkable and highly researched "fatless fat" requires less enzymes and bile to digest and is therefore more readably absorbed into the stomach and small intestines and then rapidly metabolized by the liver. This process increases energy expenditure while decreasing fat storage, which has been shown to be especially advantageous for athletes. In addition, some studies suggest that MCTs are an alternate energy source, which may save muscle glycogen stores thereby lessening fatigue and providing a protective effect on muscle tissue during catabolic conditions such as intense exercise. This new offering from ProSource is certified 100% pure MCT oil from the preferred sources of palm and coconut.

Finishing up our Earth Day piece with a look at climate change. This is a controversial topic, so we thought we'd give you a video in support of and a video opposed to the notion of man-made climate change.
Here's the view supporting the notion of man-made climate change from former Vice President Al Gore:
Here's a video opposed to the theory of man-made climate change by Senator Jim Inhofe:

Gay marriage has taken the national spotlight the past few days as the Supreme Court weighs in on its constitutional value. From picketing with posters, to posting a profile picture, the debate on gay marriage has gone online. But as the face of protesting changes, can it actually affect change?
Whether it was liked, posted, or profiled, in a matter of days, the light pink equal sign on a bright red background has become a national symbol for equal marriage rights.
"I think it is a way for people to have some sort of civic engagement that they wouldn't have in the past," said Dr. Kris Drumheller, Associate Professor of Communications at West Texas A&M University.
"It's definitely a protest," added WTAMU Teel Bivins Professor of Political Science, Dr. David Rausch. "You can use any kind of method you can, gathering, boycotting, it's still a protest."
But despite it's rapid growth, this protest might have hit a wall when it comes to political change.
"It does have the pitfall of not, when we talk about social movements, not really becoming a social movement," said Dr. Drumheller. "Because you aren't actively engaged, you're not going anywhere."
"The protesting and things, it's interesting and it gets great media attention and if you're fundraising, it'll be a great fundraising device," continued Dr. Rausch. "But in terms of swaying the court either way, probably not."
That kind of judicial influence requires a more complicated process. But even still, educators feel all protests are still good for another kind of change.
"It is a way to form that community and form that support and pictorially I think we're all image driven," said Dr. Drumheller.
Change that starts with the public.
"It get's them involved," said Rausch. "It gives them an outlet."
"Seeing all that red shows that unity," said Drumheller. "And I think that people are liking to see that."
Dr. Rausch also said any kind of protest, whether in person or online, is good for another thing: encouraging people to vote. That way when election time comes, their vote can make a difference.

The Gee family of Sacramento was your typical nuclear family living in Suburbia. Mom. Dad. Son. Daughter. Occasionally a pet fish. Dad worked for the government (it IS Sacramento after all), Mom worked as a nurse at UC Davis. Son and Daughter studied hard, took piano lessons, enjoyed summer break playing in the back yard. Being a tech geek (in the 1970s), Dad bought a movie camera and was able to document our lives. The treat of the year was our summer vacations, where we'd all pack into the van and drive across the country for an adventure. We ended up at a lot of national parks as you can see. Today, Daughter Lynda lives in the family house. Mom and Dad live a few blocks away. Son Brian lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. Being a tech geek (in the 2010s) he follows his dad's footsteps and constantly documents his family's lives with his iPhone.

Zach Braff has set up a Kickstarter asking fans to donate $2 million so that he can fund Wish I Was Here, his follow up to the indie hit Garden State. This is stupid.
Veronica Mars ruined it for everyone.
There is a video to go along with the Kickstarter, if you want to know more.
Yes, the very idea of this makes me want to go fetal under a blanket and write balls on my head too. Oh, and let's not forget the space suit picture.
At least no one can hear him scream.

I'm so sorry, Suja. What a hard trip that will be for him. My thoughts are with you all.
I'm so sorry, Suja. What a hard trip that will be for him. My thoughts are with you all.
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
I am so sorry, Suja.
I'm sorry for your loss, Suja. I hope your husband finds some peace out there.
Oh Suja, I am so sorry... I'm glad your husband is going, and so sorry for everyone's loss.
And thank you everyone, for your support.
I've only had one ear infection in my life (that I know about, who knows about when I was an infant...), and Maiya has never had any. Knock on wood, and all that nonsense!
No ear infections here either, that I know of, anyway. I treat the kids with garlic oil ear drops whenever they have a wet cold. And speaking of natural remedies, funny thing happened this weekend. We order this stuff called Berry Well Immune Support and it is shipped in a clear plastic jug but it is recommended that you store it in dark glass. So we poured it into a couple of old whiskey bottles and kind of laughed all winter about how it might be difficult to explain if someone walked in at the wrong time as it might appear we're pouring our kids a round of whiskey. They call it "wellness stuff", by the way and this weekend Sawyer saw a bottle of whiskey and yelled, "Yum! Wellness stuff!"
The new neighbor situation over here is getting just plain annoying. Drunk parents and unruly children galore, plus more horror stories from dbf's friends regarding the general crowd mom and dad run with. *sigh. At least they are not officially living there yet so it is mostly confined to weekends so far.
So sorry for your loss, Suja
I've been MIA because I've been on vacation and I really only have time for APA at work, LOL.
Going back a few pages, Chrissy, the cross incident would have made me LIVID.

Oh and Bridget, I'd probably try flipping S too. I'm a big car seat safety advocate, but in this case I think it's more unsafe to be distracted by the screaming. If there is no improvement, then I'd switch him back. Macie never had car sickness issues until we turned her FF and now she complains about it every time we are on a winding road. Sometimes I want to switch her back. With a taller seat, I could, she's so tiny.
AKA Lisa724
Suja I am so sorry
On a more selfish note, my internet being out at home is driving me insane. Luckily DH is taking off of work for the ultrasound tomorrow, so he'll be home. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to get anybody out til Saturday since apparently they don't have techs come out in the evenings??? Trying to concentrate on my financial statement analysis project at McDs yesterday was quite the challenge. I love people watching too much
Suja, I'm very very sorry.
I spent the weekend camping in a bunch of poison oak and 100-degree heat and it was not very fun, although surprisingly everyone stayed out of the poison oak, even though they were not listening to much else. Seriously, it was surrounding our tent and lining the trails and every bit of greenery around our campsite was poison oak. I'm back at work so I can't write much.
We went to a nephew's soccer game, and hung out in the shade. Pretty much every kid with a ball kicked it into a small patch of poison ivy that lined the field, and then waded in without a second thought to retrieve.
I wouldn't know what poison oak or ivy looks like. I'm a city, non-camping girl. I don't even really like being outside that much unless it's a sunny day with temps 63-73 or so....not humid with a light breeze....and NO bugs. We get a lot of knats or whatever those are by me. Blech.
And now it's the time of year that I'm scared to open the doors at night because frogs like to hang out on my porch in the front (one time DH open the door and one was on the door and jumped in the house landing on MY FACE)....and in the back, they like to suction on the patio door.
We spent the weekend cleaning the house, doing yard work and running errands. I kept the garden simple this year and went with tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers. Past few years I did broccoli....one year it was good, last year was awful it was so hot. I also tried beans and brussel sprouts with not much luck. I am thinking the farmer is doing corn again so that seemed to at least keep the deer out in the corn and outta my tomatoes last year. First two years they had soybeans so the deer ate my peppers and tomatoes instead.
Molly loved being outside so much but Cosmo is like her momma....a few minutes is fine but she spent most of it lying on the deck wanting back in the house. LOL
Yeah let's say it involved screaming on my part and laughing on DH's. Little bugger landed smack on my mouth before bouncing off me and thankfully out the door. So at least it didn't involve chasing it around the house trying to catch it since DH was walking out the door to work.
With the fields around us and all the rain we have had.....they have been very loud lately. So far have only see one on the porch when I was letting Cosmo out. But they have also been known to sit chilling out on my rockers on the porch.
While I technically live within the city limits....we have so far seen turkies, deer, coyotes, all kinds of frogs, gophers (I have one that lives in my yard....dogs love to sniff it's holes), often hear owls but haven't seen them, of course lots of birds.....and I am swearing that once we saw a wolf at the edge of the woods.
I had to pee so badly yesterday when we went on a family hike. We were 2.5 miles up and 2 miles away from the nearest bathroom. Normally I'd have ducked off-trail behind a tree to do my business, but there was poison oak EVERYWHERE. My choice was between a bladder infection and a butt rash. I went with bladder infection.
Somehow I think this smiley and "butt rash" should be nowhere near each other in a post. Is it just me?
DH cracked me up the other day just telling me about a Rottweiler he saw around the neighborhood. It was a regular ol' Rottie. Big and muscular and happy...
... and it had a full on BEARD! - a big bushy reddish blonde one. Ha ha ha! What?!?
I don't know why I think that is so funny, but every time I think about the dog, it sends me into fits.
Suja, I'm so, so sorry for your loss, and so sorry your dh missed saying his goodbyes to his dad.
L, my dd would also be covered in a rash just from looking at the poison oak! I'm so glad none of you seem to have gotten it, but that doesn't sound like a very relaxing weekend at all. In fact, it sounds like one of the circles of hell.
Ear infections - we don't seem to be prone. Noe hasn't had any. DD1 has had swimmer's ear once or twice from swim team/water polo.
We had an ok weekend. Saturday was fun - I helped out at a friend's yard sale, and Noe had her little ballet recital. Sunday, though - blech. We were supposed to go to the river for the day, but dh and I ended up having our once-yearly "clear the air" discussion. We really don't fight or argue - both of us are sort of confrontation-avoidant - but very rarely we have to take an hour or two and work through some stuff. Yesterday was that day. We've had a rough year in general with his work stress and my health issues, and although I'm feeling better, he's still struggling. He's just in a funk, and is letting his stress breed a lot of negativity... leading to him being critical and unhappy here at home (with issues like his recent little problem with the house and me spending time on the computer, if you remember that). Anyway, he needed to get some complaining out and then I needed to give him a reality check, and those kinds of things are never very fun. He felt much better afterwards and took Noe to the beach, while I stayed grumpy and worked on projects around the house. It was just sucky. But the air is clear now, and he seems quite a bit happier, so fingers crossed he'll be able to climb out of the rut a little and be grateful for all of the good things we have.
So Myles, it either wasn't a Rottweiler, or DH is inhaling something he shouldn't?
Gretchen, where are the pictures of Noe's hair? I hope that you and DH are able to move forward, the air having been cleared.
Myles, haha. I think you're right about the smiley. But dude, how could you finish the hike like that? I'd have risked the rash I think (though that's one of the worst "would you rather" options I've heard).
That's too funny about the frogs, Jennifer! For some reason, we are overrun with crickets this year. Big, black suckers, and they keep getting into the house. I've had several jump out right in front of me, one right between my toes in the garage, and the other night one took about 5 years off my life. I was putting Noe to bed, reading to her with only a little booklight on and the rest of the room in darkness. I pulled a big hardback book off the shelf, propped it on my chest (we were lying down in her bed), opened the cover, and a huge black thing sprang out of the book, landed on my chest and went down my shirt! Of course I yelled and jumped up and did the "bug in my clothes" dance. It fell out of my shirt. It was a huge cricket. I felt a lot better after that -- we are also having a problem with black widows and I really didn't want it to be one of them, so under the circumstances, a cricket was good news. But SHUDDER. It was jumping all over the place and I had the shivers for the rest of the evening.
Gretchen, we had a bit of clear the air this weekend too. I felt good after because it seemed that some of what I said got through to him and that is not always true. It started out very ugly though because he asked Kai and Sawyer to come down and "help him" by the shoreline putting in a new pier. Sawyer had a popsicle that I had made for him and that he was sitting and eating with me up by the house when dbf called them down. So I went to the other side of the house and started cleaning the front yard when I heard Sawyer start to cry. And cry. And cry. And cry. So finally I went back in time to see dbf walk PAST Sawyer without a word and hollering for me to come get Sawyer. Sawyer was saying, "It too cold. It too cold. Take it." And he speaks very clearly, assuming you are LISTENING to him. So I walked down the yard and took the popsicle out of his hand and he was right as rain the very second I did it. And he wiped his boogery, teary face and said, "Tank you, Mommy." I was so angry at dbf but I was good and waited until later (because that's my HUGE failure is biatching out dbf in front of the kids. Not cool.) Anway, I told him that a stranger would not walk past a crying child and not stop to see if they could fix it. I'm like, "That's your CHILD. Isn't there something inside you that makes you want to drop everything and help him when he is struggling?" I didn't let him answer before I said, "And if there isn't, then you have to make yourself do it. You have to take care of them. Even when you are busy." I said much, much more and he ended by saying he would try really hard. Then he actually cleaned out the fridge last night without making a big to-do about how messy it was and that has never happened before in the history of our relationship. If he swats a fly off the deck, I have to hear about it. And oh, I'd like to know how you fixed Noe's hair as well!
And Jennifer, I LOVE frogs and toads! Two of my favorite creatures.
Bridget, my dad would happily welcome you into his house. He is deathly afraid of frogs (It's quite comical, because when the rains come, so do the frogs. In droves), and he'd love to have someone so brave stand between him and the eeevil frog army.
Sounds downright biblical, Suja. Sounds like you'd better "hop to it" in terms of finding some help to ward off the froggies.
Gretchen & Bridget, I'm so glad you both took the time and made the effort to clear the air with your SO's. To me, i's a genuine sign of good will, even if it tends to get tense. Even when you confront your SO with something that is uncomfortable, I think it makes a statement along the lines of "I think highly enough about you to feel you can handle the truth" and "I care enough about us to lock horns with you." When I've stopped talking and shut down communication, that's when I've felt myself checking out. It speaks volumes when couples try to hash things out constructively. I had a couple good convos with DH this past weekend, in light of our friends (B's bestie's parents) splitting up last week. I read this great article online too that I'll dig up and share after lunch.
Rachel/Cama - How are you doing? I meant all week last week to reach out and say I'm sorry for the total MESS your ex- left you with. I hope we are some form of support for you.
I don't mind the frogs and toads from a distance. It's just when they are close enough to jump at me.....eeek. I don't mind the ones that suck onto the patio glass or if they want to live in the rocks under the deck. I would prefer that they stayed off the porch and front door though!
I once had a centipede fall off the ceiling and into my cleavage.
I also once had a mouse fall out of the ceiling light. First time I said eff in front of my parents since they were visiting the apartment at the time.
I am now paranoid about stuff falling and landing on my head or face.

A call about a break-in led to officials seizing a large amount of marijuana and crack cocaine Tuesday, according to the Forest City Police Department.
When police arrived at the home on Hardin Road, they said Andrew Holloway, 22, and Robert McEntire, 23, refused to leave.
Police noticed smoke coming from inside the house and called the Forest City Fire Department, officials said.
Police said two suspects then left the house and were taken into custody. Cops said they seized 35 pounds of marijuana and more than a pound of crack cocaine.
The fire department was able to put out the fire, which was contained to the kitchen area.
Officials said the suspects attempted to set fire to the marijuana in the stove.
Chief Jay Jackson of the Forest City Police Department said McEntire and Holloway are both charged with cocaine trafficking and possession of marijuana and cocaine with intent to distribute. Holloway is also charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

By PAUL NEWBERRYAP Sports Writer
KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP) - Chipper Jones has reported to camp for the Atlanta Braves.
No, he's not coming back.
The retired third baseman is spending a few days at spring training as a special instructor. He was on the field Sunday, working with former teammates and shrugging off those who kept calling him "coach."
Jones says he thought the first week of spring training might be tough. It hasn't been. He hasn't missed the game nearly as much as he expected, staying busy with his kids, a new romantic relationship, business ventures, the banquet circuit and his ranch. Plus, he can always head to the woods to pursue another of his passions, hunting.
Jones is impressed with Atlanta's big offseason moves but says it's too early to declare the Braves the team to beat.

Hampshire has Superfast Broadband Programme mapped
Wednesday, 09 October 2013
Hampshire County Council has published a map showing the areas in Hampshire that will benefit from superfast broadband coverage in a countywide scheme to provide a high speed network to more than 57,000 local businesses and households.
This map shows the extent of planned coverage in the first wave of the superfast broadband project which will reach 90% of premises by the end of 2015 in eight phases. Planning is currently underway for the second wave of the project to reach at least 95% of Hampshire by 2017.
The first premises will be able to sign up to superfast services in January 2014. Although details of Phase One are now confirmed, the fine detail of the overall coverage area will evolve during the lifetime of the project and so the information provided at this stage is a forecast rather than a firm commitment. Detailed maps for each phase will be published as soon as that information is available, and the County Council will also update the Hampshire Superfast Broadband map as these details are confirmed.
County Council Leader, Councillor Roy Perry, said: "Access to broadband is a vital component of infrastructure in today's world - for businesses, for education, for residents. In order for Hampshire to remain competitive in economic terms, to ensure quality of learning is available to all students, we want to make sure as many people as possible can benefit from faster internet connection speeds.
"I'd like to thank the 20,000 residents who have signed up in support of faster broadband which has demonstrated demand. The more names and email addresses we have the easier it will be for us to make the case to extend superfast broadband coverage."
The map shows the extent of superfast broadband coverage once the initial contract has been completed in 2015 with 90% of premises across the county having access to superfast broadband - the grey areas covered by commercial investment and the green areas the projected areas covered by the Hampshire Superfast Broadband Programme. The remaining area (in yellow) shows the area covering the final 10% of premises. Hampshire County Council is actively working on plans to bring superfast broadband to premises in this area with a target to go beyond 95% of premises by the end of 2017.
The high speed infrastructure network extended to 90 per cent of premises in Hampshire will be capable of delivering speeds over 24Mbps in line with the national framework, agreed by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
Hampshire County Council, together with district and borough partners, has already invested £5million in the project and was awarded the same figure from Broadband Delivery UK. BT is contributing an additional £3.8million towards the cost of installing the new fibre infrastructure bringing the total investment in the project to just over £13.8million. The money will stimulate investment and finance the costs of the upgrade to the network infrastructure.

Publication: The Day
Three of seven New London city councilors this week flatly rejected Mayor Daryl Finizio's alarmist plea to borrow another million dollars, on top of the $4.4 million the council agreed to borrow earlier this month, to stabilize city finances.
After listening for an hour Monday evening to City Finance Director Jeff Smith duck hard budget questions from skeptical councilors, I can understand why they remained unconvinced of the need for additional borrowing.
Pinning Smith down on pertinent budget questions looks like it might be harder than trapping a greased pig.
"You do a nice two-step in not answering the question," Councilor Martin T. Olsen complained to Smith during a Finance Committee portion of the night's budget talks.
Councilor Michael Passero grew almost hostile with Smith, as the finance director bobbed and weaved in his evasive answers, on topics ranging from the estimated costs of the new borrowing to how an electric car in the administration's proposed budget would be paid for.
Smith himself appeared hostile when, after persistent questions from Passero about the city's lack of a basic cash flow budget, a planning analysis of how money comes in and out, he told the councilor that of course he knows what a cash flow budget is.
But then he couldn't say whether the city has one and if not, why not.
Indeed, whether you agree with the mayor's assessment that the financial sky has fallen in New London, it seems clear that city finances have been woefully mismanaged.
How else could there be an emergency meeting called to say the city can't meet next week's payroll?
Imagine your spouse announcing out of the blue at breakfast one morning that there is no money to pay the rent that is due by the end of the week.
It seems Passero is right that managing cash flow should be basic planning, municipal accounting 101. Passero went on to complain about being "muscled" into borrowing another $1 million.
Finizio has been mayor more than two years, and he can no longer blame cash flow problems and the lack of planning for them on old administrations. He owns it.
The other important objection Passero raised Monday is that the emergency meeting called to consider the additional $1 million in borrowing was originally called as a closed-door executive session.
Plans for the closed session were scrapped on Monday. A former mayor took me downstairs in City Hall Monday to look on the bulletin board at the Monday afternoon time stamp for the revised emergency meeting notice, as he offered his opinion that proper advance notice was not given for the evening session.
The mayor's Monday session to discuss how he claims the sky has fallen was a reminder of another inappropriate call for an executive session, back in 2012, when the excuse for secrecy was said to be real estate transactions.
The mayor relented then on having an executive session, after being told it would be illegal, and called a press conference instead to say the sky was about to fall.
All the intelligent discussion I heard Monday evening about the borrowing plan came from the opposing councilors. The other councilors who voted for the Finizio plan might have just as well baahed like good sheep.
Councilor Erica Richardson made one of the most inane comments I've ever heard from a public official at a municipal meeting, and I've covered a lot of them over the years.
Richardson, expressing exasperation about city finances and things like deferred maintenance of buildings, as she looked up at the peeling paint on the ceiling, said someone needs to find a new source of a lot of revenue, and it can't be tax dollars.
Earth to Councilor Richardson: Municipal finances are about balancing spending with tax revenues, with some state grant money and borrowing for capital improvements thrown in.
There is no Santa Claus.

Thank you so much for this info. I did not realize someone could find your files.I will go check mine now.
I always delete them after Holly gets them.I will start naming them different too.
Holly, do you think it is a good idea to pw them too.
How would I go about setting up a folder to upload to?
I just upload the zip and it shows up by itself.I then right click and send Holly the link.
I dont see where it says my account...Must be because mine is free...Ill delete all and use winrar to password protect it.
Just checked mine and I had it set to "Not Allowed"!!!
I finally found it and changed mine to not allow but when I went to go delete each one to reup with password it keeps going back to same page without a delete. So what do I do now? Holly if you want send me a personal reply and Ill give you my password and see if you can get them deleted. Thanks
Thanks Holly, I've had things taken on my 4shared account without my permission, that's why I had asked you to notify me when you got my QP's
Off to check my settings.
Elaine My Blog
Thank you so much for this very good advice ! I changed my settings and hope it will help :)
Love - Callista
Proudly creating for:
I changed my setting to "not allow". Thanks for the heads up on this.
Ok, I found the exact steps and I also found how you an control whether other files of yours show up when you give someone a link to download a file of yours and they go to that link. Usually on the right is a box called "related files" and may show other files of your you didn't intend folks to dowload without your permission. Here the steps are and if you scroll back up to my original post, you will now see a screen shot of what the settings should look like.
Here's how:
-Go to 4shared.com and log in
-Go to your "My Account" link on the right side
-Under the "Settings" tab, make sure you UNCHECK the box that asks "Allow to show my files in public search results". This way no one can search for your files.
-Under the "Settings" tab, make sure you CHECK the box that asks "Do Not Show Related File at the Download Page". This way when someone is downloading a specific file of yours because you gave them the link, they will not see the box on the right side that lists other files named close to yours (meaning show some of your other files that they are entitled to to download).
