I had that same problem with my first pregnancy. A friend suggested acupuncture and it changed my life--no more pain!

Interesting. I haven't heard anyone else have that problem. We've been receiving reports and I didn't get the error when I just reported myself. :D Has anyone else had this problem?

I'm due with #2...and #3 in October. Both boys. Their 2 yo sister doesn't yet understand how her life will change. I've been feeling pretty awful this time around. If I end up on bedrest, I might actually have some time to spend on the boards. :tongue_smilie:

Hi Everyone, Jedi Bob tweaked a setting so everything should be working now. Please try uploading again.

Click the "View All Feedback For..." link on her profile, then click "Submit Feedback For..." and fill in the blanks. You will need the URL of the post you are rating. There may be another way to do it, but we haven't played with it long enough yet. ;) Hope that helps.

Unfortunately our current cart software won't allow it. We are working on alternatives, but nothing on the horizon right now.

Hi Everyone, As you may be aware, FLL4 is running a bit behind schedule. :eek: While we wait for the books return from the printer, we have put the first 10 chapters up for you at the Peace Hill Press website. Enjoy!

FWIW, I have VSD. I still have a visible hole. The only way it has ever affected my life is when I have any major medical procedure (e.g. childbirth, surgery, etc.) I have to take antibiotics. The ADA used to recommend antibiotics before routine dental procedures, but they removed that recommendation a couple of years ago. VSD is actually not all that uncommon and the hole usually closes up on its own. cnn article (one of many out there thanks to google )

Hi Sue, I recorded an oral history of my grandparents a few years ago. I used my video camera and the questions from WTM. I burned it onto DVDs and gave them as Christmas gifts. My grandfather died 2 months before Christmas so it was a very special gift. A few things I learned: -- audio is great, but video is priceless. Watching my grandparents interact--complete with the eye rolls :001_rolleyes: and hand gestures--was wonderful. It will also be helpful for my daughter to get a sense of who her great-grandparents were when she watches it someday. -- I hate video editing. It is very time-intensive. Lucky for me, I had no children and an easy day job at the time. -- my voice sounds awful (see pointer 2, below) -- a question is just a jumping off point. During our interview, my grandfather got off on many tangents. One of his *best* was political in nature. Although it wasn't part of the original questions, it was entertaining enough that I kept it and even added a "BONUS: Grandpa's political views" graphic on the DVD cover I made. People love to talk about themselves. Once they get started, you will likely have a hard time stopping them. Some pointers: -- if you use video, make sure it is digital. Having a digital camera makes the copy/burn process much easier. -- I bought a video editing program (around $100) that allowed me to add transitions, menus, titles and such. It was probably overkill. My finished DVD was Frasier-esque--white text on a black background. I faded the questions in and out before the segment my grandparents were answering. That way, those watching didn't have to hear me talk. :tongue_smilie: -- Windows Movie Maker is available free as part of Windows XP sp2, I think. That should work well enough for editing and burning. -- break the interview out over multiple days. My grandparents got tired after a few hours of talking. Also, when we came back each day, my Grandfather would say, "I was thinking about __________ we talked about yesterday. I have something more to tell you about that." (Makes for more difficult editing though.) I am so glad I did it. You and your kids will have a great time. Heather P.S. I'm going to move this to the general board since it isn't necessarily curriculum-related.

You're right. This is definitely not an ideal system. In addition to rep, we encourage buyers to leave feedback in the thread. We hope that potential buyers do a bit of research about the seller. We are working on implementing another system, but it is a matter of time and resources and software release schedules. We could hire someone to do nothing but upgrade and manage the boards, but that would cost money, which would require us to do something crazy, like charge people who visit here. :eek: Please keep in mind that PHP writes books for homeschoolers. We don't want to be the next eBay, nor is our focus on forum development. ;)

It wasn't explained previously because the explanation was written BY engineers FOR engineers :ack2: and we just haven't had time to write it to be user-friendly. As you may recall, the old boards were on life support so we had to drop everything and rush to get these boards up before the others died. We're slowly working to post all the appropriate information but we have a zillion other things on our plates and the big curriculum-buying season is upon us, so it may be awhile longer before we get to all the FAQs. Thanks for your patience.

Hi Everyone - I'm going to respond to a couple of comments here, then this thread is closed. We know the system isn't perfect. We publish books, we don't design and create message boards. ;) We have asked people to leave comments on the thread of the product they purchased. As more people use the boards and become more familiar with how things work, they can search through the Sale & Swap listings and read the threads/posts of the person they are thinking of doing a deal with. And as more upgrades are available for the forum software, more opportunities may exists to beef this up. So what would happen if someone who left a neg rep left their name? What would y'all do? Flame them openly on the boards? I can't see that doing anything but creating hostility. That's not what we're trying to do. As Kelli has said, it is a way to check your attitude. If you don't agree with the neg, fine. Ignore it. With anything like this, 1 bad rep here or there isn't going to make a difference in the overall picture. It is a cumulation of the points over the long term that is the real measure. Agreed. And the sticky says that the admins will remove trivial or hurtful reps. Yes, we will delete a neg rep that appears trivial or outright hurtful. We had some people who felt the need to give neg reps for no apparent reason. We talked to them and deleted the reps in question. Yes, Amazon is great. :thumbup: (Are you signed up for Amazon Prime?? Free 2 day shipping ROCKS!) Amazon also has an entire team of developers coding away on their website. Comments and feedback as essential to Amazon's business. We, on the other hand, write books for homeschoolers. This forum is merely a service we offer. It's a fun service, but definitely not the primary service of PHP. Our IT department (Jedi Bob!) has a day job that pays the bills and a family who requires his attention. He works on the forums when he can, but they aren't on the top of his list. Yes and no. Since the admins can see the reps, when we notice a bunch of them, we can choose to do things like ban the seller from listing on the Sale & Swap board. We know the system isn't perfect. No system is. As we said in the sticky, we are trying to create a safe and friendly place where homeschoolers--whether or not they use our products:D--can come and chat. We don't care which style style, religion, or type of pajamas your wear. Everyone is welcome. And I do have to say: I'm relatively new here at PHP, but I've been amazed at the kindness and wisdom you ladies (and men!) so openly share with each other--newbies and regulars. You guys are really great! Now, I'm off to work on some of the many projects on my desk right now. I'm sure you guys can all go find something far more interesting to talk about. Have a good weekend!

Wow guys, that is a great idea! We'll have to check it out. Maybe we could offer some kind of prize for anyone who visits the PHP booth wearing the shirt/button/sticker. :thumbup: (Shhhh...don't tell SWB. I haven't run this past her.)

...and the people who are providing these boards. :thumbup1:

OK, OK! We've upped it to 8. The limit applies to images too though, so if too many people start posting a bunch of images we may have to drop it back down to 4.

Well, you could always purchase it at http://www.peacehillpress.com--you know, the folks who are providing this forum. :cool:

Yes. Call the Peace Hill Press office -- 1.877.322.3445 -- and you can buy a single CD.

Some vaccine books: The Vaccine Book, by Dr Sears What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Children's Vaccines, by Dr Stephanie Cave (Janna just mentioned) I've read the 2nd and am currently reading the first. Neither is anti-vaccine, but they both suggest spacing out the shots. Both have their own recommended shots and schedules. There are a few that Sears skips altogether.

FWIW, I am still using my regular (non-HE) Tide Free in my FL and I use FAAARRRR less than 1/2 the well. I only use about a tablespoon, if that. Our clothes have been coming out clean. Have you looked at other allergy-safe options: Allen's Naturally or Country Save The Allen's works great for us, as well. I haven't tried the Country Save, but people who use it really love it. They are probably a bit pricier than mainstream brands though.

Hi Kareni! I think the time limit is 1 week.

Welcome, Hestia! You did great!
