‘Find On This Page’ missing in IE9

Posted on April 18, 2011

If you have recently upgraded to Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) you’re probably wondering what happened to the “Find on this page” function that lets you search for a word or snippet of text on the currently displayed page. Well, it’s still there, but Microsoft has hidden it from us. You’ll find it under the “Tools” menu (which is also hidden now).

Here’s how to find and use the “Find” function in IE9:

1 – Open the “Tools” menu by clicking on the little “cog” icon in the upper-right hand corner of the IE window.

2 -Click File > Find on this page.

How web hosts monkey around with you

Posted on April 18, 2011

Monkeys are cute and all, but who doesn’t know what they love to throw? At the zoo, you see signs like, “Stay back from the monkey cage!….”

Like monkeys, even legitimate web hosting companies will toss numbers, deals, packages and a whole bunch of stuff at you. Unlike monkeys, web hosting companies make the crap they throw at you look really good…

Just the facts, please.

Make sure you keep a “just the facts” attitude. Don’t get sidetracked from your questions by slyly inserted sales talk. Better yet, before you go shopping for hosting grab a healthy Crap-o-Meter and turn it to “ultra-sensitive”. Some web hosting companies carry badges for U.S. Grade A crap.

The Do’s and Don’ts of raccoon repellents and trapping

Posted on April 18, 2011

Raccoons are known for being intelligent. They are also known for their destructive behavior. Knowing what to do and what not to do when it comes to raccoon repellents and trapping will give you the upper hand. Read this post for tips on how you can stop raccoons from damaging your property.

Dos and Don’ts of Raccoon Repellents
 
Do use a repellent that repels by taste, scent and touch. Repellents that target three of a raccoon’s highly developed senses are much more effective than those that only target one. Look for repellents that contain products that will irritate the raccoon if it smells, tastes or touches the product. One of the best combinations is oil of black pepper, capsaicin and piperine.

Summer fun for your kids – and you!

Posted on April 17, 2011

It’s a fact of life that we’re all waiting anxiously for the warmth and sunshine of summer to arrive. Along with that warmth comes summer vacation for most school children. Nearly three months out of the year, most schools are not in operation. While that’s a long awaited treat for both children and parents, the fact is that once summertime is in full swing, the heat has forced some of us indoors and the daily interaction with other children begins to be missed. Boredom sets in.

Children will of course never admit it, but they do long for that structure and for the daily fun times with school friends. They even miss the homework that kept their evenings so busy and full of things to do. How do we keep them from being bored and from finding things to do that we may not necessarily approve of?

We can give our kids things to do that will keep them happy and occupied. Finding ways to make summer fun is what parenting is all about. Taking the time to actually spend some hours with our kids is one of the best things about summer.
