  2. Try, flushing your dns resolver cache ... Start menu Run and then type in cmd.exe will take you to C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe The Black page comes up with the C:\ ....etc on it and a blinking _ after you get to that screen type in pconfig/flushdns press enter doesn't take long and will tell you it was Successfully finished close screen... This may do it for you... Austin gave to me and it worked when one of my sites wouldn't come up but it did for others... skylady ;)

  5. Not really sure where you're coming from topearn, as we are a NEW FORUM, less than 2 months old and are going strong... With... Lots of new ideas and many solid sites for members... Prizes are not always the best way to get interested, motivated, dedicated, hard working members in a forum... ...usually brings in more trouble makers, than solid members...IMHO We do appreciate all ideas members have and thank you for your efforts !!! skylady ;)
  6. Soooooooooooo good to have you here Katherine... We do have some excellent Investment programs for long term earning... A BIG WELCOME to YOU and Your Family skylady ;)
  7. Thank you Mary :v_SPIN: You are an 'Old Timer' ...get your Thinking Cap on, the new members need our help in this cyber space arena... ...and some of us 'Old Timers' need a reminder... We have an abundance of knowledge in what promotes and what henders... Lets share it !!! skylady ;)
  8. Would like to talk a little on the "PLAY SAFE" Phrase: Know that the internet is a chancy place to spend your money, no matter who you are or where you are... The GAMES are the MOST risky... Only spend what you can afford to lose, as that is what will happen too many times... "PLAY SAFE" Get your initial investment/upgrade back as soon as possible and spend your PROFITS ONLY... One helpful way of hedging against a loss, is to CHECK IT OUT FIRST... In MONITORS: see what the Monitors are saying about the program you are interested in trying... In FORUMS: check out what others who are IN THE PROGRAM, are saying... If you have access to a Researcher, use him/her and get a pretty accurate idea on what the chances of the program are... CIF has a Researcher and I'm sure others do too... That's one of the tools Monitors use to keep a quite accurate listing of Paying versus Not Paying or Slow Paying sites... Just a few ideas to reinforce what you already know or to enlighten for the newbies... New members, players, are the future of our games... I truly believe this... ...and it's up to the 'Old Timers' to help them learn a constructive, helpful and courteous way to handle different and/or difficult situations... Hopefully one of you that is good with the words and knows how to use them can help out with a section of Learning, how to post without rancor ... and Learning how to post encouragingly ... {something on that order}:) knowing what to do, how to say the helpful words and not say the harmful words, why it's important to POST, when to inspire with hope and not cheering... ...and ofcourse much more...enough from me for now :v_SPIN: If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito... skylady ;)

  16. Got this from a friend: Absorbine Jr. as Bug Repellent While babysitting for my 7 year old grand-daughter, I had to make a call to her mama to find out where she kept the Off. She said, "We use Absorbine Jr." I thought she had lost her mind, but I followed her instructions of two dabs on the back of the neck and a dab at the top of each ear. That's exactly what I used on my grand-daughter, but I thought I needed a dab on each knee and the top of each foot. It kept the bugs away from both of us. Now I just use the three dabs my daughter suggested. When I went to the big box store to buy my own bottle, they were sold out. I had to go to the drug store (was more expensive there), but I got their last bottle. It works! Haven't run across any biting or stinging critters that fly around here, so haven't had the chance to try this yet... When I visit the family in Marysville, California area, there will be PLENTY of opportunity to test the Absorbine Jr... skylady ;)
  17. I was aware that female heart attacks are different, but this is the best description I've ever read. You all take care out there! Women and heart attacks (Myocardial Infarction) Did you know that women rarely have the same dramatic symptoms that men have when experiencing heart attack...you know, the sudden stabbing pain in the chest, the cold sweat, grabbing the chest & dropping to the floor that we see in the movies. Here is the story of one woman's experience with a he art attack. 'I had a completely unexpected heart attack at about 10:30 pm with NO prior exertion, NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might have brought it on. I was sitting all snugly & warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking, 'A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up.' A moment later, I felt that awful sensation of indigestion, when you've been in a hurry and grabbed a bite of sandwich and washed it down with a dash of water, and that hurried bite seems to feel like you've swallowed a golf ball going down the esophagus in slow motion and it is most uncomfortable. You realize you shouldn't have gulped it down so fast and needed to chew it more thoroughly and this time drink a glass of water to hasten its progress down to the stomach. This was my initial sensation---the only trouble was that I hadn't taken a bite of anything since about 5:00 p.m. 'After that had seemed to subside, the next sensation was like little squeezing motions that seemed to be racing up my SPINE (hind-sight, it was probably my aorta spasming), gaining speed as they continued racing up and under my sternum (female chest appendage bone, where one presses rhythmically when administering CPR). This fascinating process continued on into my throat and branched out into both jaws. 'AHA!! NOW I stopped puzzling about what was happening--we all have read and/or heard about pain in the jaws being one of the signals of an MI happening, haven't we? I said aloud to myself and the cat, 'Dear God, I think I'm having a heart attack!' I lowered the foot rest, dumping the cat from my lap, started to take a step and fell on the floor instead. I thought to myself 'If this is a heart attack, I shouldn't be walking into the next room where the phone is or anywhere else.......but, on the other hand, if I don't, nobody will know that I need help, and if I wait any longer I may not be able to get up in a moment.' 'I pulled myself up with the arms of the chair, walked slowly into the next room and dialed the Paramedics... I told her I thought I was having a heart attack due to the pressure building under the sternum and radiating into my jaws. I didn't feel hysterical or afraid, just stating the facts. She said she was sending the Paramedics over immediately, asked if the front door was near to me, and if so, to unbolt the door and then lie down on the floor where they could see me when they came in. 'I then laid down on the floor as instructed and lost consciousness, as I don't remember the medics coming in, their examination, lifting me onto a gurney or getting me into their ambulance, or hearing the call they made to St. Jude ER on the way, but I did briefly awaken when we arrived and saw that the Cardiologist was already there in his surgical blues and cap, helping the medics pull my stretcher out of the ambulance. He was bending over me asking questions (probably something like 'Have you taken any medications?') but I couldn't make my mind interpret what he was saying, or form an answer, and nodded off again, not waking up until the Cardiologist and partner had already threaded the teeny angiogram balloon up my femoral artery into the aorta and into my heart where they installed 2 side by side stents to hold open my right coronary artery. 'I know it sounds like all my thinking and actions at home must have taken at least 20-30 minutes before calling the Paramedics, but actually it took perhaps 4-5 minutes before the call, and both the fire station and St. J ude are only minutes away from my home, and my Cardiologist was already to go to the OR in his scrubs and get going on restarting my heart (which had stopped somewhere between my arrival and the procedure) and installing the stents. 'Why have I written all of this to you with so much detail? Because I want all of you who are so important in my life to know what I learned first hand.' 1. Be aware that something very different is happening in your body not the usual men's symptoms, but inexplicable things happening (until my sternum and jaws got into the act. It is said that many more women than men die of their first (and last) because they didn't know they were having one, and commonly mistake it as indigestion, take some Maalox or other anti-heartburn preparation, and go to bed, hoping they'll feel better in the morning when they wake up....which doesn't happen. My female friends, your symptoms might not be exactly like mine, so I advise you to call the Paramedics if ANYTHING is unpleasantly happening that you've not felt before. It is better to have a 'false alarm' visitation than to risk your life guessing what it might be! 2. Note that I said 'Call the Paramedics.' Ladies, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Do NOT try to drive yourself to the ER--you're a hazard to others on the road, and so is your panicked husband who will be speeding and looking anxiously at what's happening with you instead of the road. Do NOT call your doctor--he doesn't k now where you live and if it's at night you won't reach him anyway, and if it's daytime, his assistants (or answering service) will tell you to call the Paramedics. He doesn't carry the equipment in his car that you need to be saved! The Paramedics do, principally OXYGEN that you need ASAP. Your Dr. will be notified later. 3. Don't assume it couldn't be a heart attack because you have a normal cholesterol count. Research has discovered tha t a cholesterol elevated r eading is rarely the cause of an MI (unless it's unbelievably high, and/or accompanied by high blood pressure.) MI's are usually caused by long-term stress and INFLAMMATION IN THE BODY, which dumps all sorts of deadly hormones into your system to sludge things up in there. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive... Your BODY TALKS to YOU, LEARN to LISTEN... skylady ;)
