Bald eagle rescue
(Preview)
http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/ Have you seen this Sammie? I believe this happened in Washington state. The eagle whisperer guy calmed that eagle right down. It was amazing. I would love to see the eagle's release.

Hey you Canucks! Now you've done it!
(Preview)
It's all your fault! After I woke this AM and was staring at my computer wishing it had life support, the first sound that came into my head was the Canadian national anthem. This was happening inside my head! It should have been our Star Spangled Banner! Geesh! Well, it is a good thing the Olympic...

speed skating question
(Preview)
The speed skaters have lanes that are very clearly marked. This has nothing to do with the cross over point but France/Contin's skate went over the lane line at least 3 different times during his race. Does this matter? Is it legal?

RE Olympic skaters: How do they do it?
(Preview)
How do the skaters control the speed of their spin? It would seem natural for the spin to lose momentum and slow down but some of them increase to incredible rates. Or are the forces of momentum acting to accelerate the spin? What's going on? I don't understand the ski and shoot event. Why must they s...

Oh my word!! (USA/Swiss hockey spoiler)
(Preview)
Right at the end of the 2d period, USA finally got the puck into the Swiss net but the puck did not cross the line until after the time expired. The goal does NOT count! The score is still -0 ! Do they televise these games again for those who can only watch in the evening? -- Edited by ruffles on Wednesday...

Alexandre Bilodeau's gold medal win in the men's moguls is fabulous. I swear the Canadian cheering could be heard all the way here in Massachusetts! What a joyful thrill.

What is icing? USA vs Switzerland @ end of 1st period score is 0-0. There's not as much body slamming in this game as there was in the USA/Canadian game.

snow
(Preview)
It's nice to see that it is snowing on the mountains there by Vancouver. Your mountains are covered with a magnificent display of wonderful pine trees which have been gorgeous in their snow trimmed finery. However the snow has been disappearing off of the trees. It would be nice if, while the camer...

Other sites have a seperate forum for recipes. It's fun, and meaningful to share recipes and food thoughts with each other plus we have some excellent cooks here. If we had a seperate food forum we would likely establish a nice collection of recipes. Also, if the subject title identified the speci...

JoelC, it's Panthers vs Canucks on the 11th, and time for our almost annual loonie bet. After tonight's not so stellar performance, I'm hoping the guys will come back with a strong effort. My loonie will go towards a thermometer with negative numbers for Cypress Mountain. Best of luck to both teams...

Is anyone snowed in today?
(Preview)
How are you spending your day? In anticipation of 5-7 inches of snow with horrid road conditions, there were a bazillion closings announced this AM. Well.......It didn't even start until around noon and, in my area, it is a thin snow so far. The bird feeder is barely covered. Earlier this week, I c...

So I took a break from cruising for awhile, as I was all cruised out, but this summer we have a brand new ship making her debut, the Norwegian Epic. I am confirmed to sail on her 2nd official voyage on July 17. As employees, we can book ourselves at "positive space" if we don't wish to wait for &qu...

Using 5-10-5 as rock salt
(Preview)
I tried and used the 5-10-5 last winter with success. During the spring thaw, there were a lot of granules left on my driveway and also on the grassy path that I shovel to a side door. They eventually dissolved on their own and nothing anywhere was excessively green nor over grown. Neither was it bur...

We are. We had off and on heavy rain with lots of wind all day long. The streets were filled with monstrous puddles which my car didn't like. The ground is frozen and unable to absorb the water. However, had this been snow, we would have gotten 2 1/2 feet of the stuff. So, thank you very much for the ra...
