bfsog
theres a u? oh
6:32 am
dinok
tile stats tell you how words begin with each tile, and also how many you have found.
6:33 am
hurshy
the tile stats indicate the number of words that originate on the corresponding tile above. when more than one of the same letter appears in the grid, the word starts on the first of them that it could possibly come from, left to right, top to bottom.
6:34 am
dinok
thx hursh, beats my explanation hands down!
6:34 am
nids
ah, thks all!

7:26 am
dinok
lol! only fish when you see them, otherwise they are sea monsters!
7:26 am
Aloyisius
for expediency, my goal is to find 3/4 of the words, then use the list.. if I have lots of time, I keep going without the list.. lol... good way to put it, dinok! I mean plurals that I should have seen.. or the easy four letter words that I was just blind to..
7:31 am
Aloyisius
missed homo sapiens, gheez.. and its adj. form

21 celsius is a hot night in the summer here in the NE US
8:11 am
mrpresident
ok, will go look at my conversion table! brb
8:14 am
mrpresident
about 64 F during the night and 79 F during the day
8:14 am
mrpresident
we have humidity still... nasty stuff~ but it will pass by May
8:14 am
bichon
that sounds much better. Is it humid or dry?
8:14 am
mom2han8
ok... that is something I can absorb
8:15 am
mrpresident
our humidity is about 78%
8:16 am

hi all!
8:16 am

That's pretty oppressive. I'm never happy in the summer with high humidity. Luckily this summer we'll be in NOrway for two weeks in July and I'll be in the Bay Area of CA for two weeks in August.
8:18 am
mrpresident
last year, we had an all time low temp over winter... it was 13 C (55 F) and it was cold! with the souther ocean breeze it reduced the temp, and we were cold!
8:18 am
mom2han8
we would be jumping for joy here for a 55 degree DAY in winter!
8:18 am
mrpresident
oh wow bichon!! that must have been amazing!
8:19 am
bichon
13 c, was that at night or during the day. We'd be pretty lucky for that temperature in the winter here. But it can happen
8:20 am
mrpresident
we get to 2 C (-16 F) duri
8:20 am
mrpresident
during the winter at night, but our days are bright and beautiful
8:21 am
bichon
Do you have central heat? I remember spending a winter in Israel where there was no central heat and the place I live was all stone
8:22 am
mrpresident
13 C is during the day... but we are usually 15-18 C
8:23 am
mrpresident
no, no central heating. the houses are built without them as we don't get cold enough. but most houses have air-con and fans
8:25 am
mrpresident
our electricity bill was unsually high, but we had a very hot Feb and Mar
8:26 am
bichon
Our electricity bills were very high this winter, it was wicked cold. Now that I'm retired I can't really turn the heat down all day.

Hey everyone, if you have an iphone, check out Scramble Live. It's free and very much like this game except you have to do the best you can in 3 minutes and record your highest score. You can even play with a friend just by having a 3min go, then handing over the iphone to your friend so they can have a go. You can play solo, but also on the internet again 50 - 200+ users in one game - and at the end you see the top 3 with pics. Easy to use and at the end you see all the words and which ones you got.
8:45 am
Trifioso
sandy, you will love love love it, I promise! gives me hope for the world.

8:52 am
Trifioso
I don't know what it is about her that struck such a chord with people....maybe the way everyone was laughing at her? No one expected her to be worth anything, just because of how she looked. so sad, the way hasty judgements get handed down. made her song choice all the more poignant to me

well, there are many aspects to fostering... one of the things I had to give up was the negative family members.
'They' are finding it hard to deal with, but the children are the most important things in my life.

my friend that was showing me how to rototill yesterday said it was a mistake that the wasband left gas in the tank of the tiller over the winter. He said I should drain it out, which I have, no worries.

9:34 am

always drain out old gas trif as its shelf life is about five months and it will gum up the spark plugs
9:34 am
mrpresident
hi stid~ ((hugs))
9:34 am
Trifioso
I am only tilling over an established garden, TO, and with 10 acres of land to tend, utilites aren't really an issue!
9:34 am
crosshair
and no using old gas for outdoor fire,while it will work is not sco-friendly
9:35 am
Trifioso
thanks stid! nice to see you too! lent was loooooong
9:35 am
stidmama
TO, that is true of new ground that is being tilled, and cities, but not necessarily previously tilled or non-urban areas.
9:35 am
crosshair
eco even
9:35 am
Trifioso
okay, thanks crossy. How best to dispose? should I take it to the town garage, maybe?
9:35 am

T.O i was in gas business for 15 years..trust me..gas has a shelf life of 5 months

72 Temple Owl
so it is ok?
9:37 am
Trifioso
again, crossy, I am tilling in the way back 40. No lines at all back there! (and okay, technically it is only the "back five" but that is not how the expression goes)
9:37 am
crosshair
but id dispose of old gas safely trif
9:37 am

I didn't feel so badly for him, oodles, I think he sort of knew that would be the result, but he went on anyway. And it appears he has started his own dance craze. I bet he'll be like that young man in the States a few years back who was such a terrible singer.

Oodle I agree with stid. He cannot possibly liken himself to the wonderful Gene Kelly. He didn't even move his feet. I didn't feel sorry for him. I think he should be pleased that he gave so many people such a laugh.

6:52 pm
Scrabbler
I will check that out, DR
6:52 pm
Dorens
do you recommend them scrabbs? i am interested in asperger's-- both professionally and because Ken's grandson is a classic asperger's and we see each other frequently
6:52 pm
DR1965

6:52 pm
Scrabbler
Sleep well, dino
6:52 pm

6:53 pm
cwestexan

6:53 pm
DR1965
He has gotten a lot better though
6:53 pm
Scrabbler
Both are easy reads, Doren. I would also highly recommend The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time--fiction but very accurate portrayal
6:53 pm
cwestexan
its my last one!
6:54 pm
Dorens
i was just going to mention that... i loved it
6:54 pm
aaronsmom
I loved that book, Scrabbler -- one of my favorites

Great site, Feather. I have been ordering vit D levels on more and more kids--all deficient!
6:58 pm
DR1965
he is 10 Dorens
6:58 pm
harpjane
could i get clues for the ha6 words? i don't have a single one....
6:58 pm
DR1965
Extremely bright... poor social skills
6:58 pm
Scrabbler
Also read "The HIghly Sensitive Child" by Elaine Aron.
6:59 pm
DR1965
never has looked me in the eye
6:59 pm
DR1965
I read that one Scrabs
6:59 pm
Scrabbler
Yikes, harpja4, your na4 is in the grid

7:01 pm
forwardbyfaith

7:02 pm
Dorens
interesting website, thanks scrabbler
7:02 pm
DR1965
GOod for HIM Dorens... It is a challenge. Jake is finally making a fewfriends at school and playing at recess instead of reading
7:02 pm
Scrabbler
Please recommend the vit D web site to everyone
7:03 pm
featherbee
I have The Highly Sensitive Child already! I was one, and am a sensitive adult, and Daniel is one. I don't think Nick is though.
7:03 pm
DR1965
I will Scrabs
7:03 pm
Scrabbler
I was too/am too, Feather! Boy it helped to read that book--quite an aha moment
7:04 pm
Dorens
does your school have good programs for him dr? i find that highly structured consistent behavioral programs really do help.. particularly if you can link home/school
7:05 pm
DR1965
He has a great teacher. It isn't the school. THey will not test so I am going to have him tested on my own.
7:05 pm
DR1965
I just started reading books and dealing with him differently
7:05 pm
Dorens
find a good neurologist, dr... there are a few crackpots out there. it is imporant
7:06 pm
featherbee
very much so scrabs. which also helps explain why i relate so well with daniel in understanding his moods, likes/dislikes, when doug, who is not as sensitive, doesn't always understand
7:06 pm
DR1965
The teacher has helped him to understand his classmates
7:06 pm
Scrabbler
And it is a far more sensible/rational label than being called unsocial, etc
7:06 pm
DR1965
She did say she lovesd talking to him because he is a little adult though
7:07 pm
DR1965
I have contacted a few Dorens.. think I found the one I want but she is $$$$$
7:07 pm
Dorens
insurance?
7:07 pm
DR1965
I dont care about a labe, I just want him to be the best he can be
7:07 pm
Dorens
it is worth the $$ i think, in this situation, to find the best
7:08 pm
DR1965
We are working with insurance right now
7:08 pm
Scrabbler
Doesn't California require that school psychologists test kids?
7:08 pm
Dorens
good teachers do love asperger's kids for many reasons, i think
7:08 pm
featherbee
exactly. my dad and stepmom are so extroverted, and totally do not understand him in some ways. i feel bad when they try to push him out of his comfort zone with some things.
7:08 pm
DR1965
would most likely test during the summer and go back to school prepared
7:08 pm
Scrabbler
Richard Jacobson, MD in LA--outstanding behavioral pediatrician, Dr.
7:08 pm
Dorens
yes feather it is hard when grandparents don't understand
7:09 pm
DR1965
THANKS Scrabs!
7:09 pm
featherbee
they try to jolly him out of it, and that just doesn't work with a highly sensitive child
7:09 pm
DR1965
My hubby doesnt always understand and that is hard as well
7:09 pm

at his preschool conference his teacher said how he wouldn't want to do certain things. i suggested that she give him more advance notice about what's coming up, and did that at home too, and it really seemed to help. we'd go over his calendar for what activities were happening each week.

10:32 pm
Andrea09
i'm doing this on turbo tax, and is says i need the pin # from the recent year

Federal income tax refunds [code 109]. Did you
get a federal tax refund in 2008 because you filed
an amended federal return for a prior year or were
audited? If so, you must add back the refund amount
because it was claimed as part of your federal tax
subtraction on your Oregon return for the prior year.
Do not include the federal tax rebate (economic stimulus
payment) you may have received.
10:49 pm
Pinikula
I didn't file an amended return...
10:49 pm
jmcnrick
so the way it works is that you get to deduct your federal taxes from your OR income so when they get refunded you have to pay taxes on them
10:49 pm
Pinikula
* sigh *
10:50 pm
jmcnrick
well then you may want to consider amending your return and correct that
10:50 pm
Pinikula
I suppose it's still no biggie...I still got a refund...
10:51 pm
Pinikula
so, the taxable income should not have changed when it transferred from the federal to the state return?
10:52 pm
jmcnrick
no apparently you get to deduct from the state return the federal taxes and probably add back in the state taxes.. . . probably depends on if you itemize
10:53 pm
Pinikula
itemized ...
10:55 pm
jmcnrick
hmmm it looks like you add back the state tax on the itemized section and subtract the federal taxes on the other subtractions part (but that is just a quick look on my computer)
10:55 pm
Pinikula
Yep, that's what they did...
10:56 pm
Pinikula
...just seems odd that they would tax the refund given last year for this year. * shrug * oh, well...that's the gov for ya.
10:56 pm
jmcnrick
if you amend the return for any other reason it would be worth fixing the stimulus (it is only a $13 difference in your tax)
10:57 pm
jmcnrick
so did H&R Block do your return?
10:57 pm
Pinikula
don't have to amend...and $13 isn't worth the hassle...
10:57 pm
Pinikula
no...AARP (my dad is a retired tax guy and volunteers there)...
10:58 pm
jmcnrick
no I agree I wouldn't amend for $13 but it you find something else it might be
10:59 pm
jimmel
last two ...darn ru words...help, anyone?
10:59 pm
jmcnrick
well the reality is that all the tax codes are complex moving targets and mistakes will be made. . .I am sure I made some this year too

11:06 pm
sandyloo
is you accountant being slack Jim?
11:06 pm
jmcnrick
I can understand--my extensions are for people who either didn't give me everything or gave me several bags of receipts with no order (just like the cartoons) and late
11:06 pm
sandyloo
I will come back for the flip
11:06 pm

ah, well...not sure. Think we're taken advantage of because last year we didn't say too much about the extension....should have been more assertive, i guess
11:07 pm
Pinikula
....what a mouth full that was. ;-)
11:07 pm
sandyloo
clues needed?
11:07 pm
