Brrrrr I hate cold weather, unless it is snowing. Hopefully the cold is really over and we will be into those 30’s again. Of course a good way to beat the cold is to check out what Vacations- Yourway.com has to offer. This time of year there always seems to be great deals for places under the sun and I am sure Vacations will find a place to plant your swim suit. They also have a contest that you can enter and possibly get even a better deal!

Global Warming – It’s Fuzzy Math
January 19th, 2010Today the organization that measures global warming says that we are 1 degree warmer!! THIS IS THE GREATEST INCREASE IN 2 DECADES!! I guess it’s how you say it for a decade ago we had an increase of .65 degrees and the last decade we had a .35 degree increase.. albeit 1 degree increase in temperature. My minute mind says it’s more like we had a decrease in global warming over the last decade as compared to the prior one. But if Read the rest of this entry »

Homeless in Wisconsin Rapids
January 14th, 2010In todays economy we see more and more foreclosures and layoffs. People moving out of the area and those that are turning to their parents for help. With all that said there are still many people through no fault of their own finding themselves without shelter. This problem is probably going to grow over the next year and a few churches have now started to look into creating homeless shelters. Churches are in a way geared up to the challenge because they have built in support systems and usually ample space and kitchens. A few I know of are St.Johns and St.Pauls that are either in the process or have established a shelter already. They are usually ran by volunteers and need donations of food, clothing and those necessities of life.
Be aware of the dangers
It is easy to give a donation from your heart but it is also important that you know who you are giving that money to. There are rules and regulations governing charities and they need to be followed to the letter. A case in point is ’steps of hope’ and their total refusal to follow the rules governing such donations. Here is what we have found out about that individual.

Our School Tax Dollars – Where They Go!
June 28th, 2009I don’t know where they all go in fact I would bet that our school board doesn’t know either. I see that Howe school looks like they are getting a new roof and it must have been really bad for they had to cover all the rooms in plastic.. BUT.. maybe the roof is full of holes, somewhat like the school district spending. My main question is. Why, when no one is working on the roof, the room lights in EVERY room are left on. 24 hours a day and for sure this last weekend, all lights were left on! I don’t know how many rooms there are at Howe but if it only amounts to $2.50 per room per day and there are only 30 rooms.. hell that is $150 for the weekend, more if they were air condiditoning those vacant rooms.
These are questions our school board should be answering and I have listed their emails in case you are seeking the same answers.
