  1. Powerpoint, I think Relinda did an Organics 101 on powerpoint already, I'll have to check and see what she has, where should I start reading?

    Z I'm not sure what the dollar amount is but I suspect it ain't alot...

  2. I'm have been asked to assist a group with implimenting a curriculum grant. This grant will help county extension agents learn organic production tehniquues. This project may involve creating a cd which would idealy include video, illustrations, narrative, diagrams tables etc.

    My question is, just how technically difficult is this? Are there online tutorials and/or these programs themselves that I can take a look at? In all likelyhood the actual production work will be done by a local college but I'd like to take a look-see at what it involves and what kind of content we will be needing to come up with.

    Thanks

  3. Psalmie, I have not used paypal before so I can't say how secure they are except it sure don't look like it right now icon_eek.gif

    Did you file a police report yet? I'm pretty sure you will need to do that in order for the bank's insurance company to pay up.

    A few years ago I handled email for a farm group. Every week I would delete dozens of bank fraud schemes originating from another country quite south and to the right of us.

    I imagine if you let ebay and paypal know what happened they will sic their internet detective on this lazy bums arse and make sure he don't mess with you again!

    I forgot I had Spybot already installed, I ran an updated Adaware as well as WinCleaner '02 first. The Udated Adaware caught most of the lil buggies and Spybot cleaned up the rest.

    I'll leave things as they are for now and see if this solves the problemo, if not I'd run norton in safe mode n see what giggies.

    Thanks,

    Mikey

  5. Hey I have a similar problem, it seems I have a mshelper.dll which points me to porn sites

    Of all things, the nerve of those people...

    I think I got it when I clicked on a pop-up instead of using control alt delete to get rid of it.

    If I open in safe mode and then run Norton 2003 will that remove it or do I need to go in and manually remove it from the registry itself? I can *tell* it's watching my surfing activity and those redirects drive me nutz!

  6. Cathy requests each of you to turn in your travel plans by Aug 12th (including potty stops) so she can caravan us to the roast, something about Smokey n the Bandit, squealing pigs, cb's and the theme from Deliverance...

  7. Hey!

    Who would swing by and see where the *cool* camping spots are?

    One thing old partiers that never got busted did (or so I've heard) was to keep things low key and apart from the normal flow of things. We, umm I mean they, found some unique places inaccessable to all but the slightly deranged and testosterone driven male ego, HELL YES we can get down that cliff SNORT thats nuttin!!! Folllowed by 2 hrs of struggling to get said adventurer back up the cliff

    But the look on his face was memorable icon_eek.gif

    What a surprise any of us (I mean them) survived.

    Anyways be nice to have an idea of where to meet up and who might get there early enuf to secure some spots, if 2 or 3 folks with kids showed up that'd be enuf to scare off all but the most adventurous and desperate camper. If Cathy'd bring her horsiedog (are there riding trails there?) we might get the section to ourselves.

  8. Galen I understand some of what you are saying part of the issue may be their not having consequences for their behavior. This happened at my house too unfortuantely a responsible adult was enabling their behavior. There is an issue of boundaries and someone needs to set them.

    My boundaries at first were responibility for self and help with household chores. From that stemmed helping with outside chores and on to real life problem solving. Complex problem solving skills are in play as are good planning skills.

    Start small stay reasonable remain focused and consider small gains as movement in the right direction.

  9. Daryl thank you for your candid (and restrained) response to those folk who prefer a closed minded approach to life, you were kind to do so.

    Dartie ol gal...

    I do believe I have something better to offer Daryl and others sinners such as ourselves and that is to simply love God with our whole being and our neighbors as ourselves.

    Not a difficult concept to grasp but sometimes a difficult one to put into practice when one has recently exited a cult that reveled in do as I say and not as I do actions. I wish you good speed on your journey and much healing along the way...

  10. Lightside I had a similar experience with wasps hornets etc as I used to do alot of pressure washing and would sometimes disturb a nest without knowing it.

    When I first moved to my house here the woods were trashed, literally. So one day I started picking up trash and sorta got into it, forgettign where I was n all. So finally when I looked up there were hundreds if not thousands of yellow jackets flying all around me. I thought to myself hmmm this is weird I wonder how long these guys have been here (I also thought that this would NOT be a good time to panic). So I did what any good person would do, I kept on picking up trash. Every now n then I'd mess around with them by poking at them or saying BOOO realy loud to see their reaction and for the most part they were just as curious about me as I was of them.

    The funny thing of this was that the day before I had wondered if animals were as afraid of them as humans seemed to be and shortly thereafter I saw a few of them fly around my dog n cat and saw that they paid them no heed. that got me to thinking about fear and how potent it can be in eliciting a negative response from critters that sting (or bite) and I guess it was a sign from God or sumthing cuz the timing of it was so, ummm well timely?

  11. Galen,

    While I don't precisely raise bee's I did have a hive in a wall of my house up until this winter. They survived being sprayed by the roofers who early last summer(after my assurance they weren't going to bother them) waited till I left and sprayed... grrrr

    Now they are gone and I am saddened...

    Once I get resettled in a place of my own I plan on adding bees to my garden, hope your new brood

    works well for ya.
