Look for a product called gatorboard
It's the lightweight, paper-and-foam-type stuff that photos/posters are mounted on. You could probably find it in a frame shop.
It comes in different sizes and thicknesses, and is very lightweight compared to wood or whiteboards.
There is a product called Pad Tuff just for this type of thing.

A product called 'Fruit Fresh' or simply lemon juice
Drizzled over the fruit that browns will keep it from browning...or at least I think anyway. Never take cooking advice someone who messes up hard boiled eggs.
Pretty Woman nm

Dirty Dancing also and Pretty woman..nm

Totally agree with Pretty Woman.

Yeah it is pretty horrible, my husband's parents called -sm
here in a panic to see where he was working today (he works all over and 2 weeks ago was at VT). He was at Univ. of VA in Charlottesville yesterday which was good to know. I feel bad for the families whose lives have been affected by this senseless tragedy, it is truly amazing how life can change in a split second because of something beyond your control.
I'm a "healthy gal" as a friend of mine likes to say
Just a bit over 200 pounds now, which I never thought would happen to me. I was always able to hover around 150 until I hit my mid 30s and then I just packed it on like a bear going into hybernation. I started WW in April and lost most of those 11 pounds right away. Then vacation came along and I just got out of the habit. I KNOW the program works. My grandmother did it in the 1970s and was lifetime member until the day she died. You just have to make up your mind it's time to get serious. I'm convinced no diet or lifestyle change will stick unless you're ready to commit 100%. I'm back on track again and hope to be in Onderland (below 200, as it is called on the WW chat boards) very quickly.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Like I said, it isn't easy.
I don't know, this post down below has me thinking. What are your thoughts, woman to woman. sm
If your spouse came to you and said he was having an affair, would you be more upset if it was with a male or female? For me, definitely a female! If it were male then I would think that it had absolutely nothing to do with me and everything to do with him. I would be devastated if he were with another woman. Another poster below said she would be more upset if he were found with a male. What about you?
love Lawry's but don't like the MSG in product

Well good for you. But, was she the product of a rape?

As a product of the USA school system, yes I have.
Nothing more than daycare in my opinion. We should be looking at how other countries run things as far as the education system. Why is there no school in summer anyway? Wasn't the original reason so that kids could be with their families to work the harvest? School should be year 'round and the kids should come out of it SMART.
Product of USA school system.....
Both my children are a product of the USA school system and they both graduated with top honors, high SAT scores, got scholarships for college. It's what you put into it. If students don't make the effort, or parents, what do they expect the results will be?
Who said they are? I said talc is a good product
and corn starch can cause problems. Corn starch feeds yeast and isn't recommended for yeast.
Aveda sells a product
to use in between washings to revive your hair without putting more products in. other brands have these also. another one I know is Nioxen that I liked pretty well. Have you ever tried a mild astringent. Going close to the hairline helps keep oil off the face. Good luck!
Good idea for a crummy product
I was disappointed with it and really annoyed that it wouldn't fit in the dishwasher (just too tall no matter what I tried) But maybe it will make a nice vase, anyway!
Why do they discontinue/stop stocking a product
This has happened with Burger King sandwiches, shampoo, conditioner, yogurt flavors, creamer flavors, Slim-Fast flavors, good grief I'm afraid to like anything because I know that means I can't have it any more!
Vet called before and after surgery, and assistant called this
this afternoon. I cant wait to see her. She has only been gone for 1 day and as one lady stated, the house is empty. Working from home, I have become quite attached to her and her to me. Thanks for all the well wishes and Boo Boo Kitty thanks you too !!
Ours is a natural gas...sm
generator that is wired into our main fuse box. You can have as many or as few electrical circuits (rooms) wired in, depending on the size generator you buy. Consumer Reports usually does a good job evaluating these and gives good advice.
We got ours after a tornado caused a prolonged power outage then later an ice storm. It is a nice feeling not to have to panic when these things come up.
And, yes, as long as you have the circuit wired in where your computer, etc, is plugged in AND DON'T LOOSE YOU ISP CONNECTION, you will be able to work.
It is expensive, but in the long run, I'm glad we did it.
natural vs.
Originally, we went all out and only bought organic everything, including lunchmeat. Now we only buy organic milk. Everything else we buy is "natural." It is very hard to get USDA stamp organic and that is why the cost is higher.
Absolutely the best substitute for organic is kosher and you can mix and match from there.
(Godiva is not organic, but it is kosher!)
I think it is natural for him to
test the boundaries of his new situation, don't you? Once he knows there are still rules and you are sticking to them, he will be fine. I really wouldn't be too worried. If he seems excessively angry, then that's another situation. Hang in there. 
We all seem to have a natural part here. But I keep my

There must be some sort of natural
repellent on the market that you can spray on the furniture so that when he jumps up there and sniffs around, whatever he does, he won't like it and will get down. I have heard of something similar with cayenne pepper or something in it that keeps them away...Will see if I can find what I am thinking and post it if I can.
I think it is a natural way to feel...BUT....sm
when you get involved with someone with children that is part of the deal. I snuggle and hug my kids all the time and if I was ever to divorce and date someone, they would just have to deal with it. He is with you because he wants to be with you and when he wants adult snuggling and cuddling it is you he will want. But when he gets time to spend with his daughter, you need to find something to entertain yourself and let them have their time. She will grow up and not want his attention soon enough. I say maybe 3 or 4 more years, tops, and then he'll be pretty much all yours :-)
Actually raw/organic/natural is the best
But you do have to watch where the ingredients come from because like one of the posters said they can contract parasites just like humans could if they have bad meat. I've attached a link. I think if you start pets at a young age they will take to the raw food diet, but trying to start an adult cat is difficult.

Was this a natural thing?
Or the result of fertility drugs/in vitro? I just don't know what I would do with 8 little ones! God bless them
While I am not a vegetarian, it is the natural
process for "creatures"
to eat each other. I hate when one of my cats kills another "creature" but that is their nature.
natural OTC medication?
Could you tell me what natural OTC medication she is taking? This sounds so much like my 16-year-old daughter. TIA.
woman to woman talk sm
This has nothing to do with being a christian, it has more to do with group dynamics. I have to deal with it all the time with 6 women in an in-law situation. They are narrow-minded Bible-thumping bigots.I happen to be of another "denomination" and I do attend every function of theirs, weddings, funerals, all of it, receive their communion. I have had my parents die, lost my younger sister and many things happen where they could have reciprocated, yet they will not "step foot" in my church. So where is all their faith, they certainly are not practicing the do unto others. I can relate, it is a horrible way to live. Thank God, I had psychology courses and know about group dynamics, I am in the middle of a herd mentality. I could go on forever, they even have "interventions" when someone in their family wants to marry or date someone not from their denomination. They are awful. I know your pain! It's not your imagination, they hide behind their cohesive "numbers game," one speaks and all the others agree in unison. No one has a chance against this mob. It's tough to be your own person, lots of tears. And guys think it's all in our heads - NOT! Hang in, perhaps you'll have a Divine Intervention somehow.

No natural gas stove -- for heating only
It is a natural gas free standing stove with logs, etc. Not a cooking stove. Thanks for your concern.
Thanks so much! I went and got Clairol natural instincts
sunflower medium golden blonde - the one that washes out after 28 shampoos and doesn't lift or lighten because I was a little afraid to try that right now. I will tell you it straightened this mess right up! At least now all of the highlights appear the same color and are more golden, it is just overall darker than I would like but still much more flattering than what I had. When this starts to wash out I will go to Sally's and maybe try an overall lighter color as you suggest. Hopefully when all is said and done I won't even have to go to the salons anymore for color and pay them hundreds of dollars for a lousy job. I am a little annoyed because I did put out over $200 between the highlights and cut and tip but I guess I'll get over it :(
Thank you to all who helped! I feel so much better! I really am thankful for this board!

I use the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 v1.0. It is awesome!
Out in Cali. it IS natural selection - with all the
gang-banger thugs filling up our emergency rooms to the point of them going broke & shutting down. You'd think by now some of them would see it's a pointless, useless lifestyle.
Jergens natural glow
it goes on easy, no streaking, smells okay, no orange, cheap...i know several who use it besides myself.
natural bug cleaner for cars...anybody got one?
Does anybody know of a natural solution to remove bugs from your car without ruining the paint job? thanks
Not sure about natural, but Bugs-B-Gone is what my husband uses.(nm)

Natural Selection in progress
Survival of the fittest, so to speak. And, yes, it is very reminiscent of The Stand. Hopefully I won't see the National Guard rounding people up on the news for quarantine anytime soon.
Walnuts- natural source of melatonin
Want a better night's sleep? Try sprinkling your dinner's tossed green salad, fruit salad or steamed vegetables with a handful of walnuts. Or enjoy a baked apple or poached pear topped with walnuts for dessert.
Melatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland, which is involved in inducing and regulating sleep and is also a powerful antioxidant, has been discovered in walnuts in bio-available form, making them the perfect evening food for a natural good night's sleep.
Melatonin has been shown to help improve sleep for night shift workers and people suffering from jet lag, but maintaining healthy levels of this hormone is important for everyone over the age of 40 since the amount of melatonin produced by the human body decreases significantly as we age, and this decrease in antioxidant protection may be related to the development of free radical-related diseases later in life.
In a study published in Nutrition, Russell Reiter and colleagues at the University of Texas have not only quantified the amount of melatonin present in walnuts-between 2.5 and 4.5 ng/gram-but have demonstrated that eating walnuts triples blood levels of melatonin and also increases antioxidant activity in the bloodstream in animals.
The authors theorize that by helping the body resist oxidative stress (free radical damage), walnuts may help reduce the risk of cancer and delay or reduce the severity of cardiovascular disease and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease. Walnuts, best known as a heart-healthy nut, are also a rich source of another highly cardio-protective nutrient: omega-3-fatty acids, so Reiter and his team will next investigate possible synergy between walnuts' omega-3 fats and melatonin. To us at the World's Healthiest Foods, this sounds familiar theme in Nature's symphony in which whole, wholesome foods each provide a wealth of nutrients whose harmony promotes our optimal health.
We put in a wood stove - I haven't used natural gas

Magnesium is a natural muscle relaxant sm
I'd take it before bed. Myself, I get very relaxed and woozy if I take it, so I go to bed. Red raspberry leaf tea is supposed to be very good for cramps. I am allergic to them, so I can't tell you how that works.

What kind of dog do you have? It's hard to beat natural instinct.
My cat keeps killing birds and laying them on my front porch as little gifts for me. I'm so thrilled at 6 a.m. when I get up and walk out on the front porch for my morning coffee and find a dead bird! But thankfully my cat goes after small prey. My neighbors cat brought home a big fat rat the other morning! YUK!!! I don't know where he got it and I don't want know!
Good luck!

Anyone have ideas for natural lipid-lowering agents? sm
I try so hard, oatmeal, almonds, whole grain bread, watch what I eat and drink, substitute honey for sugar, yet triglycerides and cholesterol high. Getting discouraged and feel like saying to heck with it. I did Google, same thing I do, they say it may be familial.

I used to use cucumbers, but any of these will work....check out these web sites for more info, too....

yam cream is a natural progesterone cream--sm
I believe you can get it in most drug stores, health food stores, and on line. check on line, as you may find a better quality at a cheaper price. It works well.
No, definitely not -- if this had been a woman - sm
asking you the same question would you have thought twice about it? He was a rep of the store asking if you found what you were looking for, since it happened to be a bra, I think he phrased it correctly, but then again he did not take into account a person who would take a question the wrong way. He has learned the hard way never to question a lady about her underwear that is for sure. You need to learn to let things roll off your back. If he had leered at you and said, hey lady you find a bra for those nice **** of yours, then yeah, that would be harrassment and not good customer service. Learn to chill some and not worry so much.
I know of a woman who actually did this

what do you get for the woman who has everything?...sm
Spend some time together.
Give each little young lady a handmade card/voucher that she can cash in to spend time with you one-on-one, whether it be at the hair salon, lunch, walking in the park, just doing regular shopping stuff, going to a play or just sitting, talking, having a cup of tea and looking through family albums....It's the special time that'll be cherished.
Oh, and 50-ish is not old.....I know 70 to 85-yo young ladies who can run circles around me with their enthusiasm, drive, ambition and joy for life.  Cat
did you NOT see that 95 y/o woman who
graduated college last year? She was all over the news, GOD BLESS HER!! Had all her wits about her......just old looking is all....
Education doesn't stop until we die - so by all means 40+ is still young in that many change career directions many times in ones' life...
