Labor day
Posted:Wednesday, 09/01/2010 at 03:09pm by Brian Middleton
A great Labor Day BBQ is about much more than just food. The spirit of the party, the guest, the decorations and the entertainment are all important to make a Labor Day BBQ an experience to remember. No matter how extravagant of a party you're planning on throwing, if you organize yourself, you'll increase your chances of having a successful day.

Invitations
Organize A Successful Labor Day BBQ
1Send out invitations well in advance. Labor Day is a popular holiday and many people will be making plans for the weekend a few weeks before the actual date. Ask guests to RSVP for the party so you know how much food you need to prepare.
2Organize the menu, taking into consideration special diets, food allergies and extra food for just in case. Alternatively, you can ask your guests to bring a special diet dish so everybody has the chance to munch on something.
3Decide whether you want to host an all-day BBQ or a quick lunch party. Take into consideration work hours, the ages of your guests (kids or adults) and other plans the guests may have for the weekend.
4Put out games for guests who want to take a break or for those who are bringing kids along. This can be as easy as setting up a patio table with board games, or as elaborated as setting up some lawn games.
5Put out a table to use as a buffet center, provide snacks and finger foods and set out drinks on a large cooler so guests can serve themselves. This gives you more time to mingle and visit with your guests.

NASA IS LOOKING FOR SHUTTLE WAKE-UP SONGS
HOUSTON (AP) -- NASA wants you to choose the two songs that will wake up the Endeavour crew for the last two shuttle missions in February. The songs are all ones that have been used to wake up the crew on previous missions. They include "Good Day Sunshine" by The Beatles, "Drops of Jupiter" by Train, "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf, Elton John's "Rocket Man," Foo Fighters' "Learn To Fly" and "She Blinded Me With Science" by Thomas Dolby. NASA will even consider using an original song, as long as it's about space. Voting and details are at https://songcontest.nasa.gov.

Some ideas on keeping Cool
Posted:Thursday, 08/12/2010 at 05:08pm by Brian Middleton
Alter your pattern of outdoor exercise to take advantage of cooler times (early morning or late evening). If you can't change the time of your workout, scale it down by doing fewer minutes, walking instead or running, or decreasing your level of exertion.
Wear loose-fitting clothing, preferably of a light color.
Cotton clothing will keep you cooler than many synthetics.
Fill a spray bottle with water and keep it in the refrigerator for a quick refreshing spray to your face after being outdoors.
Fans can help circulate air and make you feel cooler even in an air-conditioned house.
Try storing lotions or cosmetic toners in the refrigerator to use on hot, overtired feet.
Keep plastic bottles of water in the freezer; grab one when you're ready to go outside. As the ice melts, you'll have a supply of cold water with you.
Take frequent baths or showers with cool or tepid water.
Combat dehydration by drinking plenty of water along with sports drinks or other sources of electrolytes.
Some people swear by small, portable, battery-powered fans. At an outdoor event I even saw a version that attaches to a water bottle that sprays a cooling mist.
I learned this trick from a tennis pro: if you're wearing a cap or hat, remove it and pour a bit of ice cold water into the hat, then quickly invert it and place on your head.
Avoid caffeine and alcohol as these will promote dehydration.
Instead of hot foods, try lighter summer fare including frequent small meals or snacks containing cold fruit or low fat dairy products. As an added benefit, you won't have to cook next to a hot stove.
If you don't have air-conditioning, arrange to spend at least parts of the day in a shopping mall, public library, movie theater, or other public space that is cool. Many cities have cooling centers that are open to the public on sweltering days.
Finally, use common sense. If the heat is intolerable, stay indoors when you can and avoid activities in direct sunlight or on hot asphalt surfaces. Pay special attention to the elderly, infants, and anyone with a chronic illness, as they may dehydrate easily and be more susceptible to heat-related illnesses. Don't forget that pets also need protection from dehydration and heat-related illnesses too.

Keeping healthy is extremely important, no matter what age you happen to be. It's imperative that you take measures to work on your health and fitness throughout your entire life. Wondering where you can begin? Well, here are 5 great fitness and health tips that you can use to make sure you stay healthy and fit all your life.
Tip #1 - Get Moving - First of all, if you want to stay fit and healthy, you have to get moving. Every day you need to think about how you can get moving in order to keep your body in good shape. There are many little things that you can do to keep moving throughout the day. While going to the gym is a great idea, you don't have to spend an hour at the gym in order to get the movement that you need. Simply take the time to take the dog for a walk, mow your own lawn, take the stairs, park further away in the parking lot, or even to play with your kids. This will help you to get the exercise that you need on a regular basis and it is also great for lowering your stress level too.
Tip #2 - Cut Back the Fat - Another important tip to remember for fitness and health is to make sure that you cut back the fat in your diet. Bad fats can lead to a variety of different physical problems that can end up haunting you as you grow older. So, start cutting the fried foods out of your diet, as well as fast food and even meets that are fatty, such as sausage, bacon, salami, and even ham. You should limit dairy products as well and eat lower fat products instead. Limit the sauces, lunch meats, butter, and mayonnaise that you eat as well. Try to eat lean and you'll definitely reap the benefits.
Tip #3 - De-Stress - Start getting rid of some of the stress in your life. Stress can lead to a variety of health problems. Spend time enjoying yourself each day, such as listening to music, enjoying a hot bath, a long walk, or even reading. Meditating can also help you out as well.
Tip #4 - Stop Smoking - One of the worst things that you can do for your health is to smoke. If you want to be healthier, then one of the best things that you can do for your health is to stop smoking. When you smoke you raise the risk for a variety of nasty diseases, so take the steps to quit as soon as you can.
Tip #5 - Drink More Water - Most people don't drink enough water each day and it shows in their health and fitness. If you want to be fit and healthy, then water is an important part of your diet. You should be drinking at least 8-10 glasses each day, and more when you are exercising. The body needs water to be healthy, and the more you drink water, the healthier you will be.
These are just 5 great fitness and health tips that can really make a difference in your life. Nothing can replace your health, so take the time to follow these tips so you can improve your health for life.

Ten great Coasters
Posted:Saturday, 07/24/2010 at 01:07pm by Brian Middleton
This came from USA today, thought you might use it if your planning the vacay.....
Summer may be roller-coaster season, but not all thrill rides are created equal. A coaster should be like a perfectly orchestrated play, says Paul Ruben, North American editor of Park World, a trade magazine for the outdoor amusement industry. "The pacing should provide non-stop action," Ruben says. "You should never have a moment to regain your composure." Ruben, 73, estimates he has ridden nearly 800 coasters. He shares some favorites with Larry Bleiberg for USA TODAY.
PHOTO GALLERY: The best coasters in the U.S.
MAP: Zoom in on these roller coasters
MORE 10 GREAT: Themed lists and expert picks
Bizarro, Six Flags New England
Agawam, Mass.
Ruben calls this ride "the best coaster on the planet" with high speeds, fog-filled tunnels and darting turns. The ride is enhanced by a soundtrack played through headrest speakers. It provides riders so much airtime -- periods of perceived weightlessness -- that "the seats are superfluous." 413-786-9300; sixflags.com/newengland
Millennium Force, Cedar Point
Sandusky, Ohio
An elevator cable pulls riders to a 30-story peak before they plunge down a near-vertical track at speeds of up to 92 mph. "It has overbanked turns, tunnels and four moments off your seat that are unforgettable," Ruben says. At 6,600 feet, it's the longest steel coaster in the Western Hemisphere. 419-627-2350; cedarpoint.com
Thunderbolt, Kennywood
West Mifflin, Penn.
Known affectionately as the T-Bolt, this classic wooden coaster takes advantage of its setting along the Monongahela River. It starts with a drop halfway down the bank, then finishes with its steepest drop at the end. "It's as if the coaster is built backward," Ruben says. 412-461-0500; kennywood.com
X2, Six Flags Magic Mountain
Valencia, Calif.
This Southern California park is home to a unique coaster with separate rails for the seats, so riders find themselves twisting and turning as they fly through the air. "This bizarre coaster breaks the paradigm of how a coaster should work," Ruben says. 661-255-4100; sixflags.com/magicmountain
The Beast, Kings Island
Mason, Ohio
This wooden coaster is the world's longest in both time and length, thrilling riders for more than four minutes on a track that stretches 7,400 feet, Ruben says. It includes a 540-degree helix that twists through a partially covered tunnel. "You can hear the screams echoing through the forest." 513-754-5700; visitkingsisland.com
Ravine Flyer II, Waldameer Park
Erie, Pa.
Riders plunge down an embankment and across a four-lane highway on this unique 2-year-old coaster. "There are several moments when the train changes direction and it tries to pull the seat out from under you. That's nasty," Ruben says. "From start to finish this feels like controlled mayhem." 877-817-1009; waldameer.com
Viper, Six Flags Great America
Gurnee, Ill.
Inspired by the classic Cyclone at Coney Island, N.Y., this coaster is "10 feet taller, a little faster and a whole lot wilder," Ruben says. "Everything that's good about the Cyclone is even better on the Viper." It masterfully employs the picket-fence effect -- rushing past stationary objects to add to the illusion of speed. 847-249-4636; sixflags.com/greatamerica
Intimidator, Carowinds
Charlotte
Pedestal-style seats have thrill-seekers leaning back with their feet off the floor. "It's like riding in an out-of-control easy chair," Ruben says of this brand-new steel coaster that reaches speeds of 80 mph. "Anything that makes the rider feel more vulnerable is good. It enhances the sense of imagined danger." 704-588-2600; carowinds.com
Intimidator 305, Kings Dominion
Doswell, Va.
NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt inspired this steel coaster, which boasts an "incredibly high" average speed of 68 mph, nearly double the pace of most rides, and faster than traffic can legally travel on adjacent Interstate 95, Ruben says. It starts with a drop from a 305-foot hill. "I counted six moments of air and several way-too-fast turns," he adds. 804-876-5000; kingsdominion.com
Hades, Mt. Olympus
Wisconsin Dells, Wis.
You can learn mythology from this wooden coaster, which pays homage to the underworld with a 700-foot-long tunnel under the parking lot. It comes up, turns around and dives underground again. "The sense of immediate decapitation is often present," Ruben says. "It's pitch-black in there, and there's a turn inside you don't see coming." 800-800-4997;

maytag recall
Posted:Friday, 06/04/2010 at 06:06pm by Brian Middleton
LinkedInSubscribe myYahoo iGoogleMore Netvibes myAOL
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Whirlpool's Maytag unit is recalling about 1.7 million dishwashers because of a fire hazard.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission, which announced the recall Thursday, says the company has received 12 reports of electrical failures in the dishwasher heating element that led to fires and damage.
One kitchen fire caused extensive damage, the agency said. No injuries have been reported.
The recall includes Maytag, Amana, Jenn-Air, Admiral, Magic Chef, Performa by Maytag and Crosley brand dishwashers with plastic tubs. The recalled dishwashers were made with black, bisque, white, silver and stainless steel front panels and sold at department and appliance stores nationwide from February 2006 through April 2010. They cost between $250 and $900.
CPSC advises consumers to immediately stop using the recalled dishwashers and disconnect the electric supply by shutting off the fuse or circuit breaker controlling it.
Consumers can schedule a free in-home repair or receive a rebate of $150 or $250 toward the purchase of select new Maytag dishwashers. The amount of the rebate depends on the type of model to be purchased.
The recall is Maytag's second of more than a million major appliances in a little more than a year. It recalled 1.6 million refrigerators because of fire risks in March 2009.
Whirlpool, based in Benton Harbor, Mich., bought Maytag in March 2006 in a $1.8 billion deal.
More information on the numerous serial numbers involved in the recall can be found at Maytag's website or the website for the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

May 31, 2010 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Summer vacation is here but a sales tax holiday in August has many parents already thinking about 'back to school.'
The Illinois General Assembly will offer a sales tax holiday on school supplies from August 6-15. Parents buying clothes, shoes and most school supplies will pay only 1.25 percent.
The state will lose as much as $60 million in lost tax revenue but lawmakers hope the tax break will encourage people to buy more.

There are now more than a dozen websites that take the swap experience to the virtual level but keep the benefits real. A sampling:
SwapMamas.com. Moms find/trade togs and toys for their little ones and themselves. It's as much a social media site as a swapping site.
ThredUp.com. Men and women can trade in their tops for "new" shirts, while parents can re-wardrobe their kids.
BarterQuest.com. A state fair's worth of swappable goods and services. In the market for an antique John Deere tractor? A user in Springfield, Ill., has one to give, in exchange for a laptop, please.

Crystal wants to leave?
Posted:Wednesday, 04/21/2010 at 02:04pm by Brian Middleton
Crystal Bowersox.
After all, no one wants to vote for a contestant who doesn't wholeheartedly want to be there, and now Crystal is downplaying the whirlwind reports she was this close to quitting American Idol.
So what's the real story behind her talk with Ryan Seacrest? Here's what Crystal said:
"I never intended on quitting. None of that [was true]," Crystal said of the reports claiming Ryan convinced her to stay on. "We had a conversation, but it definitely didn't go down the way that it has been portrayed as. We had a simple, civil conversation. Ryan gave me great advice. And I highly respect him. I am not mad at Ryan Seacrest. He is a great man. We just bumped into each other and had a good talk."
My question: Should Ryan be giving advice? Can she leave if she wants to? Why would she want to leave in the first place.

The money set aside for Cash for appliances is gone. Yup, in 11 hours on Friday, people in the State of Illinois bought more than 50,000 appliances. If you missed out, rumor has it they may do it again later this year. I didn't really want a new appliance anyway, I just wanted one of the boxes to play in like when I was a kid..

Huge drives sizes are now under $100 and many now come with back-up software standard. Now many drives come with movies on board. Paramount Pictures just announced that Star Trek will come on the latest Seagate drives for less than a total cost of $100.00
