Custom Pocket Calendars and More

Amsterdam is a quality oriented company that provides promotional items and human resource forms at great prices. I had a look through several of their pocket calendars and found so many neat ones of interest. I was impressed with their varied selection. They can customize these calendars to fit the needs of your business, charity, organization, or event. The prices seemed pretty good and are on a sliding scale. The more you purchase, the less the price per unit.

The site is easy to navigate and everything is crisp and clear, making it easy to read. I loved that it wasn't cluttered, either. It was very easy to find the pocket calendars I was interested in and then to move on and explore other items in their inventory.

This is a company that began as one man print shop in 1898 and has blossomed into a super store of promotional items. They are definitely worth checking out.

Maria Shriver, What Are You Doing?

This is just shameful. Just a couple of weeks after her fiasco being caught talking on her cell phone while driving, which is illegal in California, now she apparently parked in a red zone for over an hour while visiting the doctor.

Maria, you are the supposed to be the First Lady of California. People look up to you, not just for that respected position, but as a representative of the Kennedy family. You are disrespecting all of us, and your heritage by doing these outrageous things. You are not beyond the rules. What would Uncle Teddy say?

Get it together, Maria. You certainly aren't doing your husband any good right now. In fact, you're dragging him done. What a shame. I used to respect you so much, but your disrespect of the law and your meek and lame apologies just aren't cutting with me anymore.

Get the Proof on the Cheaters in your Life

Sadly, the reality is that we are often more vested in our relationships with our significant others than they are in us, and that sometimes means they cheat. Getting the proof on your cheating spouse isn't easy, but by going to www.CallerIDFaker.com, you can find a tool that can help you. Basically, you use the Caller ID of the person you believe your husband or significant other is cheating on you with, using your husband's phone. See how your partner answers the phone, and that will answer your questions. Visit www.CallerIDFaker.com for all the details.

First Impressions and Quality Invitations

As the saying goes, first impressions are so very important, and that goes way beyond our initial opinions of meeting someone in person. It also includes announcements and invitations. A lot of people will pre-judge an event simply by the quality and look of their card or invite, and that's why when you need to spread the word, you want to go with the best.

If you are in need of holiday cards, Invitation Professionals deserve a look. For over a decade, they've supplied their quality products through Carlson Craft, Regency, and Birchcraft. Their prices are awesome and most are discounted some 35% from the retail pricing. Naturally, their quality is high.

So, whatever your need is, holiday cards, wedding invitations, birth and graduation announcements, or even Bar Mitzvah invitations, give Invitation Professionals a look.

The Forgotten

I read a couple of days ago that the ratings for The Forgotten haven't been that great. I suppose that's not a big surprise. TV shows that I like in this modern day don't tend to last long. I like good, old fashioned drama, the kind without vulgarity, profanity, and too much realistic grit. If I want to see that, I can watch the news or surf to a lot of places on the internet.

The Forgotten stars Christian Slater. Now, I'm not a fan of Slater's. I haven't even ever had a positive thought about him float through my mind. But, let me say up front, he's great in this show. He's surrounded by several other actors I've never heard of before, but they all fill a function in the series.

This drama deserves a shot. Viewers, you haven't seen this angle of the crime drama done on television before. It's new. Slater and his pals work for The Forgotten Network, people across the country who work to identify John Does and Mary Does after the police can no longer work the cases. This is fascinating. It's good drama, and we haven't seen it done this way before.

As I said, there is little blood and gore, and that's why I'm watching it. I don't like the Law and Orders and ERs that think that you have to have blood everywhere and cuss every paragraph to have good drama.

I sense the show is doomed because I love it. I really do love it.

For the record, it's on Tuesday evenings after Dancing with the Stars. Give it a shot; set the DVR. I'd like to see it at lease survive the season.

NASCAR Nationwide Invocation -- Inappropriate

There's a time and a place. I love NASCAR and I'm sitting here, working on a fic for my universe while watching the opening ceremonies for the Nationwide Race. It's at Concord, North Carolina. Well, we start with the invocation, a pretty standard little thing, spoken by some local pastor or faith person. This guy thought he was at a holy rollers meeting or something, though.

Honestly, I've never heard a prayer like this before for a race. He was almost in song, going on about having three-wide racing of banging and thrills. I was like, 'huh'? This is a moment that the drivers are with their families, and trust me, the wives don't want to hear what this guy was praying for.

I didn't pay attention to the name -- Joe Andresen, or something like that. I hope to never hear another word of praise from him because it was just in poor taste.

Last week during the NASCAR Cup Series race, Jesse McCartney messed up the national anthem. I mean, it was bad. He forgot the lyrics and ended up repeating, but at least he was singing the song he was supposed to sing. This Andresen fella needs a lesson in being appropriate.

Fortunately, Trace Adkins did a very nice rendition of the national anthem to get us through the opening ceremonies.

Congrats to Carl and Kate Edwards

I just heard that one of my favorite NASCAR drivers, Carl Edwards, is soon to be a daddy. His wife Kate is expecting their first child sometime next February. I adore Carl and think this is very exciting news.

Carl is fighting to beat Kyle Busch for the Nationwide Championship. Last week he could the lead down to 155. It's a big number, but nothing is impossible.

Go get him, Carl!

California's Unemployment

I keep hearing that things are getting better. Prices are starting to go back up as well. The recession is either over or about to be over. That's what they are saying. However, today California's unemployment rate is a whopping 12.2%. Where I am specifically, it's not quite there. It's just 11.8%. I wonder what these unemployed folks think about the news that things are getting better.

Using My George Foreman Grill

When it comes to cooking, I value convenience and as little cleanup as possible above everything else, which is why I'm a huge fan of the George Foreman Grill. I only have a little one, but I've had it for years. Lately, though, I was wondering if it was possible to grill eggs on the grill. Typically, on a basic Foreman grill, that's not something you can do.

I did a quick search because, hey, you can find everything on the web, and sure enough, I found a site of someone who had experimented and come up with a way of making scrambled eggs on the grill. I tried it the other day, and it works! I actually e-mailed the webmasters to say thanks, but haven't received a reply back, and that's okay. I'm thrilled about my new option and decided to share it.

So, if you are curious, just click here and enjoy!

Shame on Maria Shriver

I'm really very disappointed in California's first lady, Maria Shriver. She's not just the governor's wife, but she's a Kennedy, and there is inherent responsibility there to be a positive example. Maybe it's wrong, but that's just the truth of the matter.

This week, TMZ caught Maria driving while talking on her cell phone, which is illegal in California. Her response was an ultra brief apology along with some line about giving her phone to a women's charity. I was shocked. I don't feel any remorse or even responsibility coming from her.

My respect level for Maria went from a 10 (seriously, I've had a very positive image of her until this incident) to about a 5. She broke the law, and she needs to be upfront about that and say more than a 10-second apology and some dribble about giving her phone away.

Maria, I thought you were better than this.

Torrents: Easy Downloads

Torrents are a great way to download all kinds of media for free. At the QueenTorrent website, you can search for games, films, TV shows, music, and more. They have a powerful search engine with a very simple interface. All you need to do is type in the subject of the torrents you want to find. I typed in the name of my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, and found two pages worth of interesting torrents off the bat. QueenTorrent is updated daily, its bots covering thousands of sites with torrent files to add to their massive database, meaning that there is always something new and exciting to be found.

Dry Up That Water Damage

No matter what the season, water damage can mess up your property big time. It's not something you want to let go, or it can wreak havoc with your property and your property values. That's why it's a good idea to visit water damage San Diego, the website of a company that understands that water damage left out of control is not just frustrating but often devastating. They care, and they respond with fast on-demand service. Let Able Restoration make your home dry again.

Finding the Right Web Hosting Company

As I move forward with launching a potential new website that would allow me to offer memorabilia for sale, one of my key resources is Web Hosting Geeks. I've always liked this site because it's like one-stop shopping for a hosting domain. These days there are numerous companies out there, but when shopping for a hosting company, you have peruse sites cautiously. They aren't all the same.

One of the things I love about Web Hosting Geeks is that they provide all kinds of information about web hosting businesses. A first glance gives the consumer a rank and a quick summary of each company, from 'cheap hosting' to 'editor's choice'. At yet another glance, you can see what kind of space the company offers, the traffic allowed, and the cost, as well as bonus features. For more detail, shoppers can read reviews of sites they are interested in.

All of this is free at Web Hosting Geeks. As an 'on a budget' webmaster, being able to compare websites on an independent site is extremely helpful. It gives me some good starting information that ultimately saves me time in my web hosting company shopping. I've visited this site many times to learn about companies and definitely recommend it to others in the market for a hosting company.

The Time of My Life

Patrick Swayze and Lisa Niemi wrote their story in the book, The Time of My Life, and it's now available for sale. It's also available as an audiobook, read by Patrick himself, and as an e-book on Amazon Kindle.

Beach Bike Mania

One of the best parts of enjoying the summer is riding along with a beach cruiser bike. It's healthy and it's fun. Picture yourself cruising along, the breeze rubbing against your body as the sun beams down. It's a great concept. All you need is the right beach bike.

Now don't confuse beach bikes with complicated street bikes. These usually have one speed and a coaster foot brake. There's nothing difficult about riding one of these.

You can find chopper style bicycles to suit your fancy or any kind of beach bike for a woman, man, or child. Accessories are available, too.

Find yourself a beach bike and have some healthy fun from now on!

Bikers, Check it Out

CruiserCustomizing.com is a must-visit for those of us who own motorcycles. They have an inventory of over 30,000 parts and accessories, and the best part is that these products are reasonably priced, making them affordable even in this difficult economy.

This site has all kinds of locks and alarms, which is so important today, along with sportbike tires, luggage racks, performance parts, tools, and so much more. You can even sign up to receive weekly deals, delivered right to your inbox, and what I really value is that they are a BBB accredited business, so you know you're dealing with an honest company. That works for me.

Patrick Swayze Pancrease Cancer Research Fund

News from Lisa Niemi Swayze about a new fund in her late husband's name for Pancreatic Cancer Research. This is the post from the official fan club's website:

Sunday 20th September 2009

Patrick's wife Lisa has contacted us with news of a Research Fund in Patrick's name. Here is Lisa's message:

" Stanford University is coalescing existing research activities on pancreas cancer to form a Pancreas Cancer Center. This center will expedite application of emerging technologies and the development of molecular targeted therapies all focused on pancreas cancer. Of course, our wonderful Dr. George Fisher is involved with all this and setting up this fund in Patrick's name.

Checks should be made out to:
"Patrick Swayze Pancreas Cancer Research Fund"
& sent to:
Stanford Cancer Center
875 Blake Wilbur Dr.
Palo Alto CA 94304."

Patrick Swayze, Gone from the Earth but Living in Heaven

Patrick Swayze died today, and my heart is deeply saddened. I've been a huge fan of the man's since 1993 when I gravitated towards him after the death of my father. For the last two years, Patrick has been battling Pancreatic Cancer. He beat many odds by going on after his diagnosis to complete one season of The Beast on A&E and to still be here, almost two full years later.

I was fortunate to meet Patrick a few times. I can feel his arms around me in a tender hug, and the touch of his lips in a fan-friendly kiss. I can see his inviting smile and hear his hearty laugh. I see him pulling up his pants leg to show off a scar from when he almost died filming Letters From a Killer, and I feel his happiness at having completed a multi-decades project of Without a Word, filmed as One Last Dance.

His wife, Lisa, is an equal joy, and I know she is in heartache right now, having lost her soulmate in life. However, in a bit of Ghost-philosophy, I can't imagine Patrick ever leaving her side. He'll be her forever, and in his own way, with all of us who loved and treasured him.

He was a wonderful man, kind and compassionate. He wasn't perfect; he was a human being, but he tried to be his best and he cared about this planet.

Please pause and take a moment to remember Patrick and pray for Lisa and the rest of his family, that they can find peace in his mortal loss.

As a request, if you have articles and reports that you see in your local newspaper or in any papers or magazines tomorrow and in the future, I would appreciate receiving them. You can provide feedback here and I can send my address.

You are missed, Patrick, but now you're free of pain and you're with your beloved father again, and your dear sister. I take solace that and in knowing that you are watching over Lisa even as you left the Earth. Take care and pave the road for us all in Heaven.

Some Gaming Advice

There is a wonderful way to learn about and share your love of gaming, and that's by becoming a member of a forum. Forums are really super. I love them and use them daily. For one thing, it's a way of getting to know other people on the internet with similar interests. You'd be surprised at how many others are out there, wanting to share their love of gaming while communicating with friends.

Another benefit of a gaming forum is that you can ask questions about games or issues you're having. Oftentimes, a forum will get you the answer you need much quicker than using a support or help area of a website.

The Rugged Nerds forum has sections for PC gamers, Console gamers, and eSports. There are game specific forums for games like Starcraft 2 and World of Warcraft. Take a look and join in the conversation.

Let's Roll

Today is September 11, better known as 9/11, a day that will live in infamy, just as much as December 7, 1941 has for decades. Once again, our nation mourns and remembers the terrorist attack that occurred in 2001. As I watch the re-airing of the event over on MSNBC, I realize how much easier it is for me to catch the details. When it happened, I could never make out the people who jumped from the World Trade Centers. Now, their falling bodies are pretty easy for me to spot. It's just all so tragic.

I like to focus on the brave people on Flight 93, real heroes who represent the heart and soul of America. I still feel like they don't really get their due. They saved this nation; I believe that.

For all of them, and those who did die in New York City eight years ago, I hope we all take a moment to remember their lives, and I hope that we can celebrate those lives for the good that they were and not just for the way they died.

As those aboard Flight 93 said, Let's Roll!

What a Week

This has been a crazy week. I don't think I've been so tuned in to the news, online and on-air, in a very long time.

There was the death of Senator Ted Kennedy, ending an era that won't ever be repeated. I watched the wake last night, and I just laughed and laughed at the stories. Then today was the funeral, and again, there were wonderful stories. The only thing that bothers me are the CNN reporters practically chastising President Obama for not making his eulogy a rallying cry for health reform. It's a funeral, people, get a grip.

I loved that Joan Kennedy was in attendance, as were several past Presidents -- Clinton, Bush, and Carter. All of them seated right there with the Obamas.

The one thing I really came away with from the wake and funeral is that the belief that you can do anything is the strongest ally you can have in achieving your goals. Story after story was told of Ted telling his children, nephews, and nieces about how they needed to believe in themselves and then just try their best. That's a legacy passed on from Joseph Kennedy to his children, and now the next generation has to take hold of it and move forward.

I've spent the last two days watching so much of the Jaycee Lee Dugard story. It's so hard to think that this 11 year old kidnapped girl was brought to a backyard and kept there for 18 years, where she was raped and mothered two children. From what her stepfather has said, Jaycee is a victim of Stockholm Syndrome, meaning she feels a bond with her captors. Now she has guilt about that. Jaycee and her children, who have no clue what a normal life is, will need a lot of therapy, love, and understanding for a very long time. Their transition will no doubt be difficult, but I hope Jaycee realizes how many people have never forgotten her.

As for the police, I applaud Sheriff Rupf who has admitted and apologized that his team dropped the ball back in November 2006. They responded to a 911 phone call but didn't do a background check. He has stepped forward to say they made a mistake, and I appreciate him owning up to their faux pas. However, the man in charge of the Corrections Department, the ones who have had the kidnappers as their parolee was full of excuses. He accepted no blame, no fault, no remorse, no nothing that his parole officers had failed to unearth Jaycee's presence at the home. He needs to be fired. He's just trying to cover his tail, and if he doesn't think he should at least acknowledge their lack of depth, then he's the wrong man for the job.

Then finally last night the Discovery lifted off after several delays during the week. It was a perfect blastoff with no problems whatsoever. It was at night, and it was beautiful. The shuttle program is approaching its end, but I really hope that the next phase does happen and that we return to the moon. There's so much more to be done.

Space exploration is intriguing and fascinating. I felt a strange extra connection to it last night, since I was so in Kennedy mode. After all, it was President John F. Kennedy who issued the mandate for the United States to reach unheard of heights in the space program.

Lastly, yesterday the Los Angeles coroner proclaimed the death of pop icon Michael Jackson a homicide, further clearing the way for charges to be filed against the doctor who gave him the drugs the day he died. I'm all for it. These doctors need to be stopped. This so-called physician gave the last drug to Jackson simply because Jackson kept demanding it. In other words, instead of following his medical common sense, the man was only concerned for his financial well being. He didn't want to be canned, so he gave Jackson a drug he knew he shouldn't have. This man needs to go to jail. He committed a murder, and he knew it.

What a week. So much news and so many emotions.

Miracles Do Happen - Jaycee's Alive

Hope fills the heart everywhere of parents and loved ones who have children missing, be it kidnapping or other event. In 1991, Jaycee Dugard was kidnapped in front of her step-father. Today, it was confirmed that Jaycee, now 29, is alive. We don't have a lot of details yet, except that her kidnappers, including a registered sex offender, have been arrested for kidnapping, rape, and other charges. Jaycee has two children, apparently from the kidnapper. No time, she's lived a nightmare, but Jaycee is alive. 18 years later, and a mother has been reunited with her daughter. Welcome home, Jaycee!

Rest in Peace, Ted

It just hit the news that Senator Ted Kennedy has died. Kennedy had a long career, a respectable one in politics that included a controversial run for President many years ago. I remember it well. Ted wasn't my favorite Kennedy. While I was always totally sold on his brothers John and Robert, I was less sold on him, but he was a Kennedy, and he had their drive and the same heritage. He's the only male Kennedy to make it through a long life. In that sense, this is the end of an era.

Once upon a time, there existed Camelot. It was shot down in 1963 and murdered in 1968. What was left, the remnants of that dream, has succumbed now to disease. Those big lights will never shine again in Washington D.C.

Rest in peace, Ted, and say 'hi' to Jack and Bobby.

Bling a Ling!

Hip Hop is a craze that has taken the world stage with a vengeance. It began as a dance and now is a way of life that includes the fashion industry and decorative jewelry. Bling Bling is a style that makes a 'watch me' statement. Check out Hip Hop Bling, a wholesale jeweler with over a decade of experience in this unique line. They don't just sell the styles, they help to set the trends!

A Financial Option

No one really likes to talk about their finances, especially if their situation is poor. I know because I've been there. Sometimes it gets so bad that the only option is bankruptcy. That makes the process of securing credit quite difficult. One of the best ways of getting back on track is to obtain a prepaid card from a company like NetSpend.

Getting a Prepaid Credit Card or debit card lets you make purchases, secure travel reservations, and shop online without having to worry about your credit history. It's even a great way to control your spending, even if you aren't recovering from a financial crisis. Simply load the card with the amount you desire and let it be your budget guide.

Prepaid cards are certainly an option to be considered.

Elvis - Just a Moment to Remember

Wow, it's been another year without the late, great Elvis Presley. 32 years is a long, long time, but I love he lives on in his movies and music. I have Blue Hawaii on now as part of TCM's all-day tribute. What a wonderful, innocent way to remember the true King of Rock and Roll!

Animal Love

As a devoted animal lover, I always pay attention to animal groups and websites that I discover or am referred to by other sites and friends. I'm a stanch supporter of good animal causes, including animal rights and animal care. After all, I've always had dogs. I consider them my babies. Currently, I have two young dogs, and they are my best joys, bringing me smiles and lots and lots of unconditional love.

A while back, I found a website devoted to the American Animal Care Center Fremont which serves Alameda and Contra Costa counties in Northern California. Currently, they are offering three different coupons which are pretty valuable to those in need. You can get $20 off pet vaccinations, a free initial examination, or a free rabies vaccination with a regular priced exam. You can make an appointment or order prescription refills online, which is so convenient. Their website is loaded with information about them and pets.

The American Animal Care Center has been named the 2009 Small Business of the Year by California Assembly Majority Leader Alberto Torrico.

Click here -- American Animal Care Center Flickr -- to see some great photos provided by this leading and respected organization. You'll smile, that's for sure.

This is the kind of place an animal lover loves to see.

A Crazy Day - Clinton and Prisoners

Okay, this is a crazy news day. First came the news that President Bill Clinton went to North Korea and secured the release of the two women, including Lisa Ling, being held there. This was probably already a done deal. Someone described it as a photo op for North Korea, and they are probably right. Still, the important thing is that the women are being pardoned and released.

Now comes word that a federal judicial panel has ordered California to reduce its prisoner count by 44,000 over two years because it's "the only way to bring the system's medical care up to adequate standards." Okay, so, they want to put dangerous criminals out on the street because of this reported medical neglect? I'm sorry, but I don't care.

Please don't get me wrong. I'm all for prisoners having adequate care, but I am NOT for releasing 44,000 dangerous lawbreakers simply because there's a problem in the system.

The governor is appealing the decision to the Supreme Court. Let's hope they have more sense.

The Acai Berry Rage

Losing weight is a difficult thing, and the market today contains all kinds of diet options. One of the biggest rages out there today is Acai Berry, a product Oprah Winfrey backs. You can get the acai berry products at this website.

Odds and Ends from Me

Hi Everyone!

It's been a while since I've done a check in but there's been a lot happening. With my financial situation, I've just been struggling so much, but things are now on the upswing. A huge weight has been lifted from me and I can breathe again. My disability finally came through so very soon I won't have to wake up with all that stress. The bills will be paid. What a relief!

Cassie's been just fine since those scary seizures a while back. I'm so grateful for that. It's so hard to watch her when that happens. I'm always on the smell out for skunks because it's highly possible they are the source of the seizures. My dogs are my joys, and they keep me smiling.

I'm watching So You Think You Can Dance and they've been doing some of the past routines from past seasons. I've been wondering why the Mercy number with the door that Twitch and Lacey did hadn't been featured yet. They did the routine tonight, only Katie performed it instead of Lacey. I'm curious why Lacey didn't perform. It has nothing to do with Dancing with the Stars because Chelsea's been on at least twice doing routines and she's also part of the DWTS family.

Please remember to use the links to Amazon.com on the right hand side of this blog. No matter what you're buying, if you start by using that link, I'll benefit from it. Even with the disability coming through, I still need to earn some money. Over on Review Stream, I'm now one of their featured authors so it's much easier to find my reviews there now, if you're interested. You can click on my name there, read my profile, and then click on the link to my reviews. It's really easy now.

I'm off to start work on a fan fic story. I can't wait to immerse myself back into my universe. It's so therapeutic, and I just treasure everyone associated with it.

One more thing. Please don't support tabloid trash. When you buy an issue or read a headline and pass that untruth on, you are supporting hurtful nonsense. People like Patrick Swayze have to deal with that nonsense when they should be focused on their health and getting well. They have families, and those family members have to endure this craziness. Please don't be a part of hurting the Swayzes or any other celebrity. Yes they are in public domain, but they are also human beings.

Have a great day!

Now Bookmarked on My Computer

Admittedly, I haven't heard about this music and download search engine until this evening, but I just now tried it out and am now totally sold on it.

I've been on several forums with active bodybuilders and the like, and there are always a lot of questions about what kind of vitamins to take, what are the best fat burners, and even how to make sure they get the correct amount of protein to further their goals and keep their bodies healthy.

MuscleTech Reviews is a good, introductory site that provides a lot of information on muscle builders, fat burners, stacks, and more. What I like is that they thoroughly explain these different categories and then expound on it supplement suggestions that are appropriate to help with those areas.

Take Me Away

After a long day at work or a stressful day dealing with obligations and chores, it feels so good to just kick back and relax. One of the ways I've always thought was just a super way of reinvigorating myself for the evening was to get into a hot tub. It's peaceful, soothing, and just feels great.

What is wonderful about hot tubs and spas is that you can enjoy them alone, with your significant other, or with friends. They come in various sizes, so it's totally up to you what style to get and how many people will be able to fill it at one time. When not in use, good hot spa covers are important to protect the spas so that they're ready to go when you are.

Personally, I prefer to just settle in on my own and let the vibrations of the water take me away to a land of peace and serenity. It's so nice.

Feels So Good

I work so much at my computer that it's not uncommon for my back to begin aching. Sometimes my legs get tired of sitting, too. I just end up feeling uncomfortable, and that's when the fidgeting starts. After awhile, I have to get up and go relax elsewhere for a while, like sitting in a recliner or lying down on the bed. That may give me a change of pace, but it's not doing anything to really make me feel better. If I want that, I have to pull out one of my massage systems.

A good massager device really feels great. It wakes up my muscles in a good way, and it soothes my aching back. The vibrations ease the aches and it all just makes me feel better. However, while I have a couple of different systems for massages, what I hate about them is that I have to pull them out of the closet, set them up, and then plug them him. For a person who loves convenience, that's a lot of extra steps that I'd rather pass on, especially when I have to undo it all when I'm done using the device. Plus, these devices only work in a piecemeal fashion. It works on a portion of my body, and that's it.

Now there's a better way to get those get vibrations rolling and that's with Human Touch Massage Chairs.
