Halloween Games 10/5 Candy Corn Guessing Game

This is the CCB Halloween Game for Monday October 5th It's really easy, just guess how many candy corns it took to decorate this pretty pumpkin. It was done by a talented 18 year old girl from Australia a few years ago. Don't try to cheat and look up the domain site where the picture is hosted, as it gives no clues. The answer was revealed secretly to me in a group setting several years ago. Your only clues are that the pumpkin is medium size, and the candy corn goes all the way around the pumpkin, and fills every space but the bottom. The closest guess wins a Beautiful Large Autumn Theme Tapestry Accent Pillow from Pier 1 Imports. The contest will end at 10:00 PM tonight. Good Luck!!

OT- just a reminder--watch your purse when you shop

Link KATU.com - Portland, Oregon Print this article Police: Man who rammed pregnant woman with cart still out there by Margy Lynch KATU News and KATU.com Staff Originally printed at Link CLACKAMAS, Ore. - Deputies are looking for a man witnesses say shoved a shopping cart into a pregnant woman's stomach after snatching her purse. It happened at a grocery store in Clackamas. Deputies said it doesn't appear the woman or her unborn baby were seriously hurt. KATU has obtained the surveillance video of the incident. It shows the woman standing in line, with her Coach-brand in the cart, and a man reaching over to grab it. Just outside the video's viewpoint, deputies said the man then shoved the cart into the woman's stomach. He then steps back into the video before taking off out of the Safeway store at 12032 S.E. Sunnyside Road. But he didn't get far. At least one employee - and other witnesses - chased after him. They caught up, he dropped the purse (with everything still inside) and he took off. That was three weeks ago, on Sept. 15. However, police have yet to find the man in the video. As such, they are asking for your help. The pregnant woman in this case believes the man is 25 to 30 years old. She said she heard him speak in a language other than English, Spanish or Russian. Anyone who recognizes the man in the screenshot above is asked to contact the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office tip hotline at (503) 723-4949 or online. Minding your p's Shoppers said they try to be aware but are sometimes unsuccessful. "I usually have my purse in my cart, unzipped," said Bessie McFarland, a Safeway shopper. "But my husband says, 'Zip it up, keep it on your arm, don't leave the shopping cart.'" That's good advice, given that this isn't the first - or likely the last - wallet or purse snatching as a result of shoppers without their eye on their purse. (See our coverage of a wallet-snatching in a Safeway store in Woodburn in late July.) "Some people aren't in their right mind," said Carrie Eaton, another Safeway shopper. "You have got to protect yourself - and those around you - and don't be easy bait." Eaton holds her purse through her fingers, with not much rein. She said a man tried to grab the purse off her shoulder once and she was able to hang onto it; he gave up and ran off. But if she is shopping and needs both hands, she said she puts the purse over her head and one shoulder. She never leaves it in her cart. Deputies said these purse snatchings are often a crime of opportunity: Thieves usually will go after the contents of your bag only if your bag is open or easy to grab. ----------------------------------------

GOOD MORNING! It's Wednesday! It's Time for Coffee!!

Good Morning Everyone! Got over the worst of the catching up on homework yesterday! Now it's just maintaining. I forgot how much work is assigned in college. I think I did okay on the test, just the word problems that caught me. Thankfully there was only two of them! Class today, a computer lab. Word2007 **yawn** Only staying in the class because of Excel and the other programs I haven't seen in years and they are skills needed in the job market. #2 was sick yesterday and had a fever. Should have known something was wrong when he slept in and took 2 naps! This morning he seems fine and is eating well. Maybe he just needed to catch up on his sleep. The usual today. Lessons, class and I have a bedroom that exploded clean clothes. I do not know what DH lets those boys do while I am gone, but they change clothes too much! I sold a few things in auction last night. While it's not too much, it's enough to keep me motivated and try to do better. Have a green day! Brenda "Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow.

Children's Place fall line....are these pants supposed to be

Hi. I was at The Children's Place this past weekend and picked DD up a couple of outfits on clearance from their fall line. Put a pair of the pants on her today and they are shorter than I had thought they would be. However, I have been getting mixed "opinions" today as to weather or not they were supposed to be "shorter". They are not capris, but not full length either. They are stretch material (like leggings) and have a zipper at the bottom of each leg. I think these are what are called "yoga" pants, though I am not for certain. I looked on the website hoping to show you a picture of them, but to no avail. Anybody by chance have these pants and can tell me if they were supposed to be "shorter" or is DD just too tall? **These were from the "baby girls" sizesA person is a person no matter how small---Horton Hears a Who

I have never had this happen before in 5 years of selling, and it has happened twice in the last 2 weeks where a buyer bought something and ebay/Paypal let them check out without paying for shipping!

Yellow Jacket stings, what really works?

Somehow a yellow jacket got in our bedroom yesterday, unnoticed, and stung me after 2am. It was on our comforter, and when I moved, it got my arm. It hurt like the dickens for several hours after. But now, my for arm is swollen, red, hot, hurts, and itches on top of that lol! I put insect bite cream on it, which did nothing. Ice helps, but is getting annoying to hold on all the time. We don't have any benadryl (sp?) in the house, but if it works, then I'll ask DH to stop at Walmart to pick up. Or I'm open to anything else that would work. I don't really care about the redness, or ugly swelling, cause I won't win a beauty contest regardless. But the itching and pain it driving me nuts. I already tried Excedrin for the pain, but it didn't help much. We only have so much cash flow till payday, so I really trying to find what will work the first time, kwim?

OT: So, we finally heard back from disability for Dh's ESRD.

And it is good and bad. The good news: We are approved. Yay! And the bad news: The first check won't be until January. It seems that there is some sort of qualification period. I have no clue what we are going to do until then. I am thinking about contacting a lawyer about it, but from what I googled, I'm not sure there is anything we can actually do. I've been thinking about getting job myself, but to be honest, we had the transmission go out in my Sienna van back in March and it is going to be 1800 to have it fixed, which is why isn't fixed now. So we are borrowing a truck from my parents and his car is a stick (I have tried and tried, please don't laugh, I just can't get it) and he can't drive it with the fistula in his arm, plus it doesn't have any ac and the windows don't go down anymore and he can't get sweaty b/c of the cath in his chest (infection would go straight into blood stream). It's really just a ton of drama and crap. So basically, if I go to work, he won't be able to get to his doctor appts not to mention dialysis 3x a week. And then I'm constantly going to have to take time off for all of these appointments and not to mention the hospital stays we've already had, it's been so random. Unless its someone really understanding, I don't think it will even be worth it to get a job. I have applied for some manager positions (I have no experience in anything but retail) about 3-4 weeks ago for some businesses around here, but I have not heard anything and when I call they say that the manager will call if they are interested that they don't take personal calls about applications. I don't know what to do anymore about this. And even if I do get a job, it won't even make a dent in our bills, I will be lucky to make 10 an hour.

I am aware that by the 22nd I need to revise all of my "older" store listings and add the handling time, shipping time. Ebay even called my house last week to remind me. I tried to follow the instructions and do it through bulk editing (I use only Ebay, no hosting sites). Well, apparently what they call bulk and what I call bulk are two different things, because I still had to go to each auction and add those options (though they did come up on the same page). I just don't have the time, patience, AND my computer seems to be really slow when working on Ebay. So my question that I can't seem to find the answer to is if i don't do this will they disappear or will they show as unsold? If unsold, I think it would be easier just to edit them and relist. But if they disappear, oh no! Also, is there a way to tell what store listings already have those options..I can't figure out what I've already done and what needs to be done! Maybe I need to pay someone to do this for me~Thanks in advance!!

Ot-Craft Kits

Last year i ordered craft kits from the Oriental Trading Company. They were great and the kids loved them but their shipping/handling to canada is expensive. Does anyone know of a similar place I could buy from that might be more reasonable. Within Canada would be awesome since I wouldn't have to pay duty as well but other places are ok I will be out for a bit but will check back so TIA to anyone who can help Doesn't your Mom sew?

OT For those of you that fly

BIL wants to come down and spend a few weeks with us. Looking online the price of the ticket is pretty cheap for round trip, but my question is the baggage charge. Do they charge you to bring a bag on the plane too? He was going to bring a duffle bag/carry on, are they going to charge to have that bag checked in or is it just the baggage that goes under neath. Northwest is what we were looking at for the airline but if you are charged for carry on I dont know if that is at each stop because he would be stopping in Memphis TN then from there to here and the same on the way back. So many of you have flown recently that I hope you can help me out with this one. TIA

OT kinda legal question

Try and make it short. I have 4 nieces, when my sister died, Hannah went and lived with sister # 2, then after niece 2 moved, Hannah went and lived with sister # 1. Hannah father died also 3 years ago so when she went to live with sister # 1 a good part of the monthly check she gets from my sister goes to niece 1. Hannah will be 18 next month and wants to move out on her own, she is a senior this year and she doesnt get along with her sister or bil much at all but she really had nowhere else to go. Niece 1 said she cant move out and that she will take her to court to make her stay? Now your considered a adult at 18 so would Hannah have a problem moving out anyway? Can Katie actually take her to court and get them to make her stay with her? We just figured that Katie didnt want her to leave because face it, Katie will miss out on the $$$ she gets every month from hannah checks. kwim. I dont think legally there is anything Katie can do to make hannah stay. Hannah and my ds Gary are really very close so he said the same thing, he didnt think Katie could "make" hannah stay there. Hannah has had it a little rough losing both her parents in a matter of 3 years at such a young age but she also cant wait to get out "from under Katie" at the same time. TIA

I Am Speechless - literally! WWYD?

Since we had heard nothing about the Obama speech from our daughter's school we asked her teacher about it at the end of school Friday. She told us that they were opting not to show it. She said it was a District decision because it's political, and they don't teach religion or politics at school. whatWHAT???? Then, I found out from friends that their children elsewhere in the same District are seeing it. I went to the District website, and they have a long statement about how they have left it to the discretion of the individual classroom teacher whether to show it, and whether to use the curriculum provided, but that parents could opt out. She INSISTED that it was a District decision, and not the decision of the individual teacher or school. She said it was against District policy to show it. WWYD if your child's teacher lied to you like that?

KNEE SOCKS: above or below the knee???

Once again my one and only DD has me flummoxed about fashion. When wearing a short skirt, do fancy striped knee socks belong above or below the knee. The pair I have(from target) is a bit big for DD and it sits about 2 inches above the knee. that's a one inch band and one inch or sock. Will this look okay, or is it a fashion faux pas? And how much below the knee can they go without it looking like she is wearing socks that are too small for her. Because I would like to let her wear last year's socks although I have not yet tried them on her. Thanks in advance.

Sex predator 3 houses down from me, just found out

Took baby for a walk midday in our quiet neighborhood and a middle aged man stopped her and handed her a flier and a sex offender has moved in. Tons of kids and teen girls. From the addy appears an older couples home we met when we moved in 3 yrs ago who are nice, must be their 38 yr old son or something. I looked it up, sure enough. I feel sick and friend of mine who initially found out has a BEAUTIFUL 14 yr old blonde daughter. We will be locking doors and being more alert around here. Don't we live in a scary world?

OT-- DS health class--earn an extra A for working out w/the teacher

Ok so DS brings home this sheet from health class and in addition to the regular homework-- they have to read a 2 pg health article every weekend and highlight parts of it and write about 5 things you learned from the article- if article is from the internet, it has to be a 4-5 pg report. Anthything less will give you a 50% grade. Once a week the teacher has them walk a set course during class time... you have to walk it exactly and do not stop at any point in it; or you will get an F grade for the day. tardy 5 times=F grade entered into the gradebook-- each tardy therafer will result in an additional F being added into your grades. Then it has how you can earn extra A's-- you can go work out with the teacher after school-- up to three times a week for 45 min, lifting weights-- and earn an extra A for each time. Then on Fridays, after school, teacher has a 60 minute walk.. to earn yet another A. Sign up and record all your physical activity and get an A added into your grade for the semester. Now Im all for getting kids to be more physically active but this sems to be a bit biased/unfair in my opinion. The kids that are able to do these physical challenges will get a better grade than those who dont... and it wont matter what grades you got on actual homework or tests. Im seriously concerned about this class!!

just found out DD hasn't been getting breakfast at school! OT

She's been in school for over a month. They mentioned they don't serve breakfast the first week (really 3 days) and started the next week. DD just got a think in her backpack stating they will be starting breakfast next week! In k-5 and in 1st grade they went to breakfast at a certain time every morning this is the same school so I figured she'd do it this year as well. I didn't realize she hasn't been eating until this note saying they were going to start eating. It's no wonder the teacher complains she can't get her to concentrate she's freaking hungry. DD says the teacher has been having them have their snacks for breakfast...I've been sending usually small snacking foods nothing sufficient for a breakfast. I'm really upset that I didn't not know this until now. Would you be upset?"This must be Thursday, said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, I never could get the hang of Thursdays."

Did anyone's kids mention the big speech at school

Our district decided that they would not let the kids watch the speech on Tues. They taped it, and then decided to show all the kids the taped version on Wed. So last night as I was folding laundry in my room I had Obama's address on, my dd7 walks in and says "Oh No, that guy is talking on TV again". I forget that they were showing it to the students on Wed.. So we talked about the speech that he gave to the students. She said Obama said to stay in school, go to school everyday, try your best, then..................he just kept saying the same things over and over again. She claimed that she got so tired of listening to the same thing over and over again she put her head down to rest. I just thought it was funny. Parents on both sides were making such a big deal about it. I don't think my dd was harmed in any way by listening to someone say to stay in school and try your best, well that was all she got out of it.

SSB converter

Let me start by saying that I know nothing about HTML so be gentle with me. I see that SSB has come up with a way to convert Auctiva listings. I've done one and it seemed to work well. The only problem I have is that the physical size of the template is HUUUUUGE. The description is okay in that it's on the left side of the page but the actual template is stretched big time ...ie you need to scroll the page to the right to see the whole thing. Am I doing something wrong and/or is there an easy (again, be gentle with me, I'm clueless in HTML) way for me to fix this? At this point I'd actually even be okay with removing the template (if I knew how) and just having the description showing. Thanks for any advise.

Anyone want to help me with a dishwashing mystery?

Hi, I have a load of dishes with this awful residue/hue that won't come off. I'm trying to figure out what happened. This set of dishes were all washed together with dry powder from Costco. I've never used dry powder before. After I noticed the haze. So I bought the regular liquid soap with the jet clean, and the same thing. One twist to this mystery is that we use to have soft water, but had it removed because there's a new law that doesn't allow us to have water softeners. So is my dishwasher not working right? Is it the dry powder that created the hue or is it the hard water. One extra tidbit on the hard water is that I usually have a pile of morning dishes that I wash by hand and let air dry in the sink and I've never had this haze. BTW -- the haze won't come off. I've tried soaking in Dawn and scrubbing.

Aunt Ava your cooking skills are rubbing off on me!!

Shame on you!! I found a new brownie recipe I've never made. I made read: attempted to make Sara Lee Kalhua White Russian Brownies. Thought it said 2 oz of cream cheese (the lesser the better cuz I can only tolerate it hidden in chocolate). Creamed the ingredients listed....scratching head....why isn't this creaming? It's not creaming!!!! Put it all together stuck it in oven. Looked at recipe again. 2 (3oz) pkg of cream cheese Arrrggghhh;!!!! Anyone wanna try it? Is it bad manners to let my company try it before I do?

OT: My DS LL coach

I have my DS Little League coach on my email saved list so I won't miss any emails from him. Every time I go on on Facebook, it suggests adding the coach to my friend list. Finally, being the stalker that I am, I click on his picture to see what I can see about him. It allowed me to see his whole profile, which I thought was weird, because most people's are private. So, of course I have to read it, and under profession it says "author" and then gives a link to his blog, which I then clocked on. Holy carp--he is James Preller the children's author of the Jigsaw Jones series! My DS loved those books--we have several, although he has outgrown them now. Just thought it was neat, and you never know who you will run into in this world. Thanks for letting me share!

Haven't really listed in soooo long.......some questions.

Hey there! I haven't listed in so long (except for a few just in May) and can't remember if we can or cannot do a few things. Is it technically legal (or at least will they catch it) if we put an image in our listings that links to an off Ebay website such as *gasp* Etsy? Can our siggy's link to the aforementioned abomination? What is the consenus on 30 day listings? I don't think that they had them available to auction and regular buy it now listings when I was selling steadily. Do ya'll think that it's a smart move? Or do you usually go with the 7 or 10 day listings to keep higher in the searches? (I sold on a different ID) Thanks for the help! Alyssa [IMG]Link[/IMG]

2 weeks without computer...WOW! feedback ? too

Hello everyone. It is amazing how much I have come to looking forward to reading this board. I recently went 12 days without a computer (GASP!) and found myself thinking of many of the "members" here. Unfortunately I got the computer back last night and ended up getting a worm virus within minutes of getting online!UGH! Thankfully my CA anti virus thing found it and deleted it. Going to have to look into getting a firewall, I guess. Received an Ebay purchase while I was offline and now need to figure out what type of feedback to leave them, since they emailed me 3xs with a "form" letter type thing asking for feedback. Originally I was not going to leave any, but now I am not sure. The purchase was a bedding set for my DD, that I bid on and then asked about here and decided I did not want it, but did not cancel the bid as I bid so low that I thought I would be outbid...NOT. With shipping I paid approximately $40. The set is sold as NEW and is very pretty. However, the sheets feel like cardboard, "quilt" has multiple strings "pulled" already and I have not even taken it out of the bag thing....can't imagine it will be any better when I take it all the way out. So, I will have to give it some more thought today. Anyways, I am so glad to be back online again!A person is a person no matter how small---Horton Hears a Who

For years, I've driven by without stopping at a thrift store on the way to my children's camp -- 1.5 hours away. This morning a few of my YSs had been duds, so I was early. This place was hopping, so I stopped. OMG! You know how we always talk about perfect ways to set up stores? Bright -- spacious -- uncluttered -- priced sensibly -- BATHROOMS -- dressing rooms. I'm not saying it was a hotbed of high $$ namebrands, but I'll bet some come through there! In the 20 minutes I was there, I got a GK Elite leotard, vintage Izod Lacoste shirt, vintage Girl Scout shirt, and some Star Wars figures in a grab bag for my youngest. I get to return in a few weeks when I take my youngest to camp. You can be SURE I'll be stopping! Oh, and when I got back to town, I took some packages to the PO and winged by GW.

OT Forrest Gump goes to heaven (email joke)

The day finally arrived. Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is at the Pearly Gates, met by St. Peter himself. However, the gates are closed, and Forrest approaches the gatekeeper. St. Peter said, 'Well, Forrest, it is certainly good to see you. We have heard a lot about you. I must tell you, though, that the place is filling up fast, and we have been administering an entrance examination for everyone. The test is short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven.' Forrest responds, 'It sure is good to be here, St. Peter, sir. But nobody ever told me about any entrance exam I sure hope that the test ain't too hard. Life was a big enough test as it was.' St. Peter continued, 'Yes, I know, Forrest, but the test is only three questions. First: What two days of the week begin with the letter T? Second: How many seconds are there in a year? Third: What is God's first name?' Forrest leaves to think the questions over He returns the next day and sees St. Peter, who waves him up, and says, 'Now that you have had a chance to think the questions over, tell me your answers.' Forrest replied, 'Well, the first one -- which two days in the week begins with the letter 'T'? Shucks, that one is easy. That would be Today and Tomorrow.' The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, 'Forrest, that is not what I was thinking, but you do have a point, and I guess I did not specify, so I will give you credit for that answer. How about the next one?' asked St. Peter. 'How many seconds in a year? Now that one is harder,' replied Forrest, 'but I thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve.' Astounded, St. Peter said, 'Twelve? Twelve? Forrest, how in Heaven's name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?' Forrest replied, 'Shucks, there's got to be twelve: January 2nd, February 2nd, March 2nd... ' 'Hold it,' interrupts St. Peter. 'I see where you are going with this, and I see your point, though that was not quite what I had in mind....but I will have to give you credit for that one, too. Let us go on with the third and final question. Can you tell me God's first name'? 'Sure,' Forrest replied, 'it's Andy.' 'Andy?' exclaimed an exasperated and frustrated St Peter. 'Ok, I can understand how you came up with your answers to my first two questions, but just how in the world did you come up with the name Andy as the first name of God?' 'Shucks, that was the easiest one of all,' Forrest replied. 'I learnt it from the song, ANDY WALKS WITH ME, ANDY TALKS WITH ME, ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN.' St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates, and said: 'Run, Forrest, run.'

Package Not Delivered.... What to do?

A while back I sold a dress to someone who paid promptly. Packaged it up and shipped as usual. A couple days ago, the package was delivered back to me marked return to sender and someone had hand written on the package "Not at this address". So I double checked that the address in Paypal where I printed the label is the same in Ebay and it is. I emailed her through ebay that the item was returned and to please let me know what she wants me to do...No answer. I also emailed her directly via email and I received an undeliverable response because her email does not allow email from my address.. what the heck does that mean? So what is the protocol ..? Wait? Should I pull her contact info and call her - I'm not thrilled with this idea though? And who is suppose to pay an additional $4.00 to ship this back out when I finally reach her? What to do.. ?

Shipping Charges and Fees

Are sellers allowed to add ebay and paypal charges to their fees? I ask because I asked for a shipping charge breakdown and here is what I got: $2.07 for shipping $1.10 for envelope, $.35 for insertion fee, $.73 for paypal and final value fee was $.87. The total is $5.12. If I charge it in the shipping then I don't have to put it in the item price. I understand the cost of the envelope, though that is much higher than I pay, but I did not think you could pass on ebay fees to the customer through shipping? Am I wrong?
