Tips for Teaching Kids How to Act Around Unfamiliar Dogs

May 27, 2014

By Laurie Darroch

Children are curious and fascinated with everything. Unless they have a fear of dogs, naturally they are curious about them as well. They are likely to simply walk up to a dog that is wandering around or being walked by a human companion, without understanding that there are etiquette and safety issues involved when approaching an unknown dog. It’s important to teach children the ins and outs of their own behavior around unknown dogs, as well as how to interact with both the dogs and dog owners.

Approach or Not Approach?

Unless an adult is accompanying a young child, it is a good idea to teach kids not to approach a dog out for a walk with its human without knowing if they should or not. So they won’t be tempted if they come across a dog when you are not around, make sure your child understands not to approach a dog that is running around loose unless they know the dog and the dog knows them. They won’t be bringing home any stray dogs that way either. Sure, the pull is powerful when a child sees a cute dog that they want to meet or play with, but for safety’s sake it is best to teach them not to approach strange dogs on their own, or as an alternative to find an adult they know who will help them.

People out walking their dogs or playing with them in a public place do not necessarily want kids running up to their dog. Even a trained and calm dog may feel unsure with an unknown child and react in a nervous or unfriendly manner. Some dogs just do not do well with strangers, or may feel protective of their human. The dog may be in training and has not learned how to behave correctly around unknown people. The last thing you want is a child or dog with an injury that could have been avoided.

Ask Permission

This is an important rule. Even adults forget to ask permission to approach an unknown dog sometimes when the owner is out with their pet. Some owners would prefer their dog not be bothered. Others may need to help the dog get used to the idea, or prefer to do the leading. Some dogs are not used to children or are not child friendly.

A child needs to learn to ask for permission from the owner if they meet the two of them while they are out and about. They can ask “Is it alright to pet your dog?” or “May I pet your dog?” It is simple courtesy and respect for both the owner and the dog. Whatever the answer is, the child needs to understand that it is a firm answer.

There are also particular dogs such as Seeing Eye dogs that should not be approached. They are well trained and well behaved, but they are working when they are out walking with a visually impaired companion. If that person gives permission after they are asked then it’s fine, but no one should assume it is without asking.

You may find that meeting a person with a seeing eye dog who is willing to communicate with your child will also provide the added bonus of providing a learning experience in understanding and empathy, and might help the child become interested in service type dogs.

The Dog’s Body Language

It isn’t just the human that has a say in the interaction. The dog has some say too. Teach your child to understand the body language the dog exhibits. Their tail may be wagging in happy anticipation, or down in nervous fear.

The dog’s body position is an indicator as well. Is the dog straining to come meet the child or pulling back in fear? Obviously aggressive barking, growling or showing teeth in anger is a definite warning indicator to not approach the dog.

Patience is a Virtue

Once a child gets permission to pet an unknown dog, they need to know the right way to have contact with the dog. Many children are likely to jump forward excitedly. Depending on the dog, this may make them fearful or uncomfortable, or even be seen as a form of aggressive behavior from the child toward the dog. Trust has to be established between dog and child. Dogs interpret human body language as well as voice.

Teach your child to bend down close to the level of the dog. Slowly reach a hand out with the palm down offering the back of the hand, and allow the dog to approach the child at its own pace and comfort level to sniff the offered hand. Show the child how to talk in a calm soothing voice to the dog and to wait patiently. Some dogs may still not want to approach, so don’t push it.

Meeting a dog should be a positive experience, but a child needs to know the right and wrong ways to do it, or whether to do it at all. It is simple enough to teach a child and for them to learn.

Murray declares ‘apparent’ victory in Seattle parks vote

Screen Shot 2014-08-07 at 9.33.55 PMThursday’s final big count of August Primary ballots did nothing to change the outcome that was obvious after Election Night’s first tally. The majority of the city’s voters, supported the mayor’s Seattle Parks District plan to fund parks. Thursday night, Mayor Ed Murray’s office decided it was time to declare victory on the “apparent passage” of the proposition.

“I want to thank Seattle voters for their support of the parks district and commitment to creating a lasting legacy of open space and facilities for generations of Seattleites,” Murray says in the statement sent to media.

“This vote means a sustainable source of funding for our parks system. We will begin work immediately to address our existing maintenance backlog, working diligently to manage the needs of our park system as Seattle continues to grow as a city.”

The plan will give the to-be-formed district power to tax up to $0.75 per $1,000 of assessed property value to pay for the Seattle Parks system. Seattle City Council members who will make up the district board have said they do not plan to tax above $0.33 per $1,000 to fund the current parks budget.

Fatal Drunk Driving Accident
Police on the Scene of Fatal Drunk Driving crash

Drinking and driving really kills. This happened to four young friends of mine right around November of 2003. There was a get-together, so to speak, at another friend of mine's house, there was some drinking envolved but no one was going to drive after that. Two girls said later on that they were leaving and assured us that they would not be driving, a friend was coming to pick them up. Their friend indeed came by and they left, little anyone knew, that the driver was already heavily intoxicated and should not have been driving. With the driver was one of his friends that came with him, so it totaled to 4 people in the car, the 2 guys in front, including the driver and the girls in the back.

They left and about 40 minutes later my friend got the call from one of they girls that they got into a really bad accident on highway 290 just outside of the city of Chicago. The girl sounded hysterical; we took off to the accident site and what we found you can see on the pictures, as you see it's not a pretty site.

What happened was, they were driving way too fast, police report said that they were going 120 mph at the time, and as they rounded a curve on the highway no one noticed the semi truck that was in their lane; they tried to swerve but it was too late, I don't think that they had time to brake, so they slammed into the back of the semi with the driver side of the car. The high bumper on the semi trailer literally sliced the roof off the car as they slid underneath the truck, and just threw the driver out of the car (he was not wearing seat belts). Driver ended up about 50 feet from the car, killed instantly, the girl sitting behind the driver got serious injuries, mostly head injuries, due to the roof being pushed back, she died in the hospital 4 days later. The front passenger walked away from the accident, just minor scrapes and bruises, as well as the rear passenger that was sitting behind the front passenger; the two were treated and released the next day.

Let me tell you something, after what i have seen there, being there myself and seeing the aftermath....being a heavy-footed driver i no longer have urge to fly, and no more drinking and driving, and i'm talking not even a sip (for me drinking and driving is actually a little sip of beer)

Thank you for the time, i hope people get the message, no one wants to lose friends like that. Tony, Chicago, IL

2011 Ford Territory – first teaser image revealed

2011 Ford Territory – first teaser image revealed

Ford Australia has given blue oval fans a treat today with the first teaser image of the new-look 2011 Territory. Due out in around six month’s time the new Territory is set to breath life back into the well aged name plate.

First launched back in 2004 the current Territory is based on the underpinnings of the Falcon sedan and has only received subtle updates throughout its long production life. Now Ford Australia has committed to the Territory until at least 2016.

The new 2011 Territory will continue to make use of the Falcon platform but will use updated global styling inside and out, plus a number of new technologies, including the introduction of turbo-diesel power.

“The Ford Territory set a new benchmark when it was first released and it is set to achieve this again — and more,” said Bob Graziano, President and CEO of Ford Australia. “This is an exceptional SUV. It wears an exciting new look and will boast an extensive list of technical highlights. The Ford Australia team is taking the Territory to an all-new level of performance, refinement and quality, and customers will definitely experience these advancements when they drive it.”

Ford hasn’t released official details on powertrain options for the new Territory but the company had previously announced that the updated Territory would benefit from the introduction of the Ford and Peugeot-Citroen PSA co-developed 2.7-litre V6 turbo diesel motor. It’s also likely that Ford will make use of its 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder EcoBoost engine in this application, as the new powerplant has already been confirmed for the Australian market Falcon.

It’s an exciting time for Ford in Australia and NZ as over the next 18-months, approximately 85 percent of the entire Ford range will either be replaced or updated. New models planned for NZ in the future include the next-generation Focus and the Aussie-designed Ranger truck, which was recently revealed at the Sydney Motor Show (read news item).

Read in F&S that Wendy is having computer problems.  I do not have her email addy.  If anyone has, please send her the info on the adobe flash update as she has been having problems with her version.  Either that or her system is infested by the fake update virus.  Will come back later to chat.  Thanks a million.

Sue thank you, I took your advice, that you gave on "F&S" group, I am not tempting fate, as it has been awful, with the fake flashplayer, (outbrowse), I have cleaned and cleaned, , then downloaded flashplay 14 from the legit adobe, so ......... wait and see,.

Thankyou for letting people know here, because if it hasn't gone, (the virus) then my time would be limited, because the virus, is a re-direct, and takes control, grrrrrrrrrrrrr, at times , if I could have got my my hands on the person who put the bloody virus out, I would have cheerfully wrung his/her neck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, - even with my arthritic thumb, which is giving me gip,

2 years ago

Wendy I have been getting that flash thing a lot tonight,drove me nuts taking about 4 attempts to post even in feedback.

I have the new flash player and that fake one is asking for a download to an older one!!
i have Malwarebytes and my McAfee security,they remove them but do NOT stop it appearing again

The people who cause all this bother want shooting!!!

2 years ago

Lily I am having that trouble too, it flashes up so often I can't get to the groups in the evening. there is no way to get rid of it either.

2 years ago

Quick get this posted, Lily, and Brenda, lets start a "get fake flash player" group, I empathise with you both , it is soooooo annoying,  the fake flash player is malicious, it is a re-direct , not a pop up,, = pop up's can be X'd, -> re-directs control your lap top / pc. So you have to x it in the small window, of the screen, then it downloads !!!!

Now i have become very quick at clicking the x in the small window, then clcking the x in the "tab" before the beastly thing down loads,

my security wont let it through, it tells me malicious maleware has been blocked, YES GOOD, BUT NOT ERADICATED GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

I followed Sue's great advice, I have the real flashplayer update - 14,

I have tried AVG, I even have another cleaner that I can't remember, as well as Kaspersky,> (not free).

So my next action, is going to my provider, I am with "Talk Talk", I am going to make them, look at the router, and if need be, give me a new one, ,.

If it helps any, loads of people are suffering , so the "geeks" had better do something, the people who invent security are smarter, than the evil virus/maleware planters,

Trust me, Lily & Brenda if I find a permanent solution, I will come here and share the info, infact I will message you both .

 Oh and yes it is the evening, that the fake "f.p." seems to become unstoppable. Keep smiling, we will eradicate the viruses/maleware .

When you are posting , and it is slow, look at what your p.c tells you, -you are waiting for, I caught one saying, "waiting for", (I think it was ?) that was the malicious site, I can't find it now, shows how quick they are, but i am watching !!!!.x x x x

Another link that may help you remove the virus, if that is what it is.  I've seen it referred to as a Trojan, Virus, Adware etc. it seems to wear many hats and be slightly different as time goes by.  It seems to be contracted through malware infected ads placed on websites.  Thank goodness for AdBlock Plus.  One person said he got rid of the popups by using a script blocker.  Another by using an adware cleaner.  Yet another had to trash his routers and buy new ones.  He had a business with dozens of infected computers on his wifi network.

If nothing else works then go to

Become a member and then post in the help forum, it is usually a few days until they get to you, but they will stick with you until the problem has been erased.  Here is the link to the malware forum

An having a very rough week, will be back to chat in a day or 2.  Hope everyone is doing well.  Enjoy tonight's extra special moon this Friday the 13th.

I tell you I have configured, / de-configured/ created images/ run in safe mode/ cleaned /disenfected then what happens, it goes, but as soon as I have been on "care2" for any length of time it comes back, the dreaded big red f  is there flashing telling me to download flashplayer 11.7

I have now contacted, ADOBE who told me it isn't a fake , not a maleware/virus???

my security Kaspersky will not let it download, calling it dangerous maleware,!!

Sue - you are the best at all this - now Wendy and Brenda - helloooooooBrenda - are both in the UK area at least - I have NOT had this fake flash player - unsure why - but your evening would be right about now for me - based on an 8 hour difference - Karpensky ios suppose to be one of the best - I run my AdvancedSystemCare daily - have Sbybot for the Saturdays.  use the free AVG (well weverything is free) - CCleaner when there is a weird problem - Anti-SuperSpye=ware and Malewarebytes when I want more - could be more but any ideas on these Sue when you are eeling better?

If you all haven't yet - I would sign up for the Sophos newsletter that Sue reads - I did and it is fantastic!

Lynn, thank you for starting a separate thread for computer problems.  Had meant to do that then forgot, too much happening here keeps me from thinking clearly.

I'm wondering if anyone who is having problems with the fake flash player update pop-ups is having the same problem on any other sites they go to?  If not then at this point in time I believe there is a malware infected ad on this site that is causing the problem.  If that is the case it would explain why people are having such a hard time here on C2.

The only reason I know a little about the malware programs is from my own infestations and all the hoops I had to jump through to get the system clean.  2 out of the 3 infestations I had came from C2!  Not from the site itself, but from infected links I clicked on before I knew about WOT.  Web of Trust is a browser add-on that I have installed in Firefox.  It is also available for other browsers, but I have no idea how to install it as I only really understand Firefox.   If WOT gives a link a red circle, I do not click on it.  If a yellow or orange then I investigate before deciding to click or not.  Green means the site is safe.  Here is the link for WOT for Firefox

Also use No Script, it is a royal pain sometimes, but does block scripts from running that may install malware, you choose which to allow, which not to.  It takes time to learn how to use it, they have a great tutorial to guide you.

AdBlock Plus works the best on Firefox, the version for IE is not as good and allows some ads to be seen.

It's possible that having these three add-ons is what is preventing my system from becoming infected.  Not sure at all.

Have also installed Lazarus, it is a browser add-on that keeps track of what you type in a box, if for some reason you lose your post or message you can right click in the empty box and click to have your text returned.  Never lose a post again.  Only installed this on Monday when I lost an entire hour's work responding to one of Cheryl's posts.  Was going to throw the keyboard through the monitor, then calmed down and installed this instead.

Val I remember Spybot Search and Destroy.  Had that on my Windows XP system and it was fantastic, never allowed me to get infected and blocked every attempt to infect the system.  For a while it was getting a bad rep, but now it is once again getting glowing reports.  I used to run it constantly in the background.  Then do a weekly full scan too.  Here is a safe site to download it from.  It is under the security heading.

AVG Free is what I'm using too, didn't like that it shut down Windows Defender though, but it appears it also does the job WD did so no use having 2 programs running all the time doing the same thing.  It is also available at the ninite site.  Used to use Avast Free, but after getting malware 3 times using it decided to change to AVG.

CCleaner, available at ninite, have heard both good and bad about it.  Some people swear by it, yet I've read about at least 3 people in my Yahoo Computer group whose systems got completely F'd up by it.  I use the Junkware removal tool, it deletes unnecessary things like empty folders, registry entries etc.  Never had a problem with it.  Direct link is on this page in blue.  For a while it looks like nothing is happening, then suddenly you get a file of everything it got rid of for you.

Every week I also run Malwarebytes and Sophos Virus Removal Tool, Malwarebytes is also available on the ninite site.  Sophos is available here.  Scroll down until you see the Virus Removal Tool download button.

Superantispyware is still on the list of things to do.  Have heard glowing reports about it.  Here is a link to download it, scroll down the page for a tutorial on how to use it.  The free version works to scan and remove problems.

To me, if my anti-virus, Malwarebytes and Sophos cannot get rid of something that is on my system, then it is time to go to Bleeping Computer and ask for help.  Sometimes it can be so difficult to remove malware or spyware, rootkits etc.

Under no circumstances ever should anyone run COMBOFIX unless you are asked to by an expert who has told you to and is helping you to clean your system.  Running that on my system kept me offline for almost 6 weeks as it deletes everything it finds and what it found on my system were badly infected Windows 7 OS files, in the end I had to restore to factory settings losing everything.  Took me over a week to re-install everything I'd lost.  Although all my emails from the ISP were gone forever along with all saved photos, personal files and all my contacts too.  Learn from my huge mistake.

I am not very clever when it comes to things like that Lynn but it seems that is what is causing all this bother we are having

2 years ago

Lily, since you only seem to have the problem on Care2 it seems that one of the ads is causing the problem.  Eric is always telling people to allow ads on the site as that is how C2 is able to stay afloat, they get money every time we view the ads, but in all honesty the ads cause so much grief.  I have completely blocked all ads with AdBlock Plus in Firefox everywhere I go on the internet except a few TV station websites where if I do not watch the ads then am not able to view the program episodes.

There is a way to completely block everything from that site by putting the domain name into your hosts file.  However you can really F'up your computer if you make a mistake doing that.  Here are a few links some explaining what the hosts file is, some with instructions to edit it and add the domain name you want to block.  Then the last one is to a downloadable program that allows you to edit the file.  In all honesty I do not think I'd want to edit this file on my own system.  But if I was in your shoes and about to lose my mind completely, then I'd make sure to copy the existing hosts file with a new name like - hosts1 - in case I screwed up the edit.  Then it would be easy to delete the newly badly edited one and rename the older one back to it's original name.  Hope I explained that clearly enough.  Here are the links.

If you're reluctant to edit the hosts file, then this link has other less drastic options.  Mostly only browser ad blockers though.

There is a computer help group on Care2, Computer Shop, maybe join and ask the host, Frank, if he has any alternative suggestions, or give him your Windows version and ask for simple instructions to edit the hosts file if adding the ad blockers does not fix the problem.  He knows much more about things than I do.

Oh how I wish Zen was still with us.  She would have had this problem sorted out in record time.

Thanks , Sue , I only have the problems when I come onto care2, which is why I sent the message to Eric,

I have read up a bit , on the Kaspersky forum, and wow, scarey stuff , but the biggest targets for cyber crim's, are people on Facebook, . I am not on facebook much and only have known friends and family connections on there, I can get a message to friends who I don't have a phone number for,

Any way, Kaspersky gave me a blocker, that protects my facebook account, and my "friends account " while they are "chatting to me", from all the beastly cyber-crim's/ malware/ viruses/ adware/ pop up's  - flaming intruders !!!

The people being ripped off from their banks, are Russian , and mostly thanks to facebook!!

Any dormant forums are being invaded by chinese / Japenese adware pop up's, care2 would do well to close all groups who are not active ,.

The last thing I did was make an image of everything, oh and put a file into - quarantine,  oh and haven't seen you know what yet !!!, but yesterday it was on all day, and it wasn't called " flash ahhh ahh , protector of the universe !!!

back soon, Lily hope your ok, love hugs x wendy k x & kelly cats xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi friends i was off earlier as my windows wouldn't start but thankfully got it going again now.
Well Sue I am reluctant to do a lot of stuff on here in case it makes things worse.

I did put adblock on Internet explorer but nowhere else so far.
I want to see how things go regarding that pop up.

Never had as many problems with my old pc well maybe a few in the beginning.
Then of course they decide to pack up supporting XP to get us to change to new ones but I find on my old pc that they are still doing updates on XP there !

2 years ago

Lily, I'm still getting updates on my desktop which has XP. My laptop was Windows8 when I bought it but then I upgraded to 8.1. It knocked out my Kaspersky and I had to reinstall it. It also made it so that I now have to put in my Microsoft password every time I boot it up. Why can't they leave things alone? Each new thing brings on some kind of trouble.

I hope the pop-up is gone forever!  Wendy, you're a computer guru. Wow, the things you have done to protect your computer are astounding. You go, girl.

Well I have always had a start up password to get on to from windows but the password I had to change recently.

I too hope that pop up has gone but well who knows.
It definately only shows on care2 nowhere else so must be from one of the advertisments.
It is not so much the pop up but the fact it wont go away and keeps on no matter how many times you click on the X
I have put adblock on Internet explorer but nowhere else so far.

Just clicked accidently on that ad below here Avon one, they are a niusance sometimes,I though I might lose this post when it covered the page.

Wendy good info re FB.  I am on it but not much at all - adn I agree about the groups and I add profiles on Care2 - i they haven't been her for 10 years - whey are they still here!  makes the #'s look good.

And Sue - Frank is good and thanks - will come back here and luckilu is beore noon - I know CCleaner doesn't get rave reviews sometimes but works or me - luckily I don't have the fake Adobe Player - wonder why?

You all are great - and if you have NOT yet signed up for Sophos - link above - I highly suggest it!

How to post You Tube videos in groups
2 years ago

Boy, wrote and posted this yesterday, but Care2 was down when I clicked on submit.  Thanks to Lazarus I didn't lose the post!  I'm really loving that add-on.

Seems people are having trouble posting You Tube videos.  They changed the URL's of many videos and have now made them HTTPS instead of HTTP so mostly if you delete the S you should not have a problem.  Here is what I have on a sticky note on my Windows 7 desktop so that I can always check the link is the right one.

Embed group video
Then video code

Whatever comes after the ?v= in the URL bar of the browser showing the video on You Tube is the only thing that will change.  Of course you have to type - video: - before adding the URL.  Then check by clicking preview to see if you have the correct code before clicking to submit your post.  If the video box does not show up in preview then the URL needs editing.  Sometimes there is a . in the that also needs removing.

Sticky Notes are available in Windows 7 and 8, to get them click on start and then type - sticky notes - in the box that says search programs and files.  Click to run the program.  I pin mine to the desktop so that I can see all my reminders every time the computer boots up.  The link that looks live in this post will be copied and pasted as simple text to a sticky note.  Couldn't find a way of not making it a live link, although it will go to a not found message as there is no video code in it.

2 years ago

Sue, thanks so much for instructions on embedding a video. I was doing it right but didn't know that you had to take the "s" out of https, so my videos were not coming up. I tried it your way and it was perfect. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Thanks also, for the sticky notes link. I now have the sticky notes with your instructions on my taskbar.

2 years ago

Are we talking about videos for groups or for on comments on peoples pages?

When I post a video in these groups from YouTube I only copy and paste the url under the video and it works first time in the groups here.

When I did do an embed one for comments it was just the same after clicking on the embed link just copied and pasted.

2 years ago

Glad it is working for you Lynn.  I love the sticky notes and have fun doing them in different colours for different types of things to remember.

Lily, those instructions were just for group postings.  I've never put a video on peoples comment pages as they are so tiny and hard to see.  Many people do not know that if you click on the You Tube logo in the bottom right hand corner of the video box you will be taken to you tube to watch the video in the usual size box, which I had to do all the time thanks to my failing eyesight when people posted videos in my comments.  The URL under the video does not always work in group posts as many people complained in Zen's group.  You're lucky that way works for you.  Going to try it now to see if it works.

2 years ago

Now that is surprising, it didn't work that way months ago.  The link had the in the URL under the video.  I wonder if Care2 has changed the way they accept the videos now?.  Good to know that works too.  Love to have options and to learn something new every day too.

A bit overwhelmed here but probably because am exhausted from mowing - and hurting   I just added Lazarus after losing some posts so we'll see - have never been able to post a video - just the link - let's see - when you say to copy the link under teh video - have no idea - i just see the one in the top bar = for example

Lynn, it's time for you to install Lazarus on your browser.  You'll never lose a post again.  The link for Firefox is above, but if you use a different browser, here is their web site link.

If you use IE there should be a similar add-on for it.  Care2 has been too slow to use for days now, so I only came on to do the daily clicks and sign a few petitions.  Now have to catch up yet again!

2 years ago

Lynn - I never remember those except the one that has saved me - C + V - paste

Seems Care2 is always having issues now - having trouble with the videos again so will ask once more - I think - and will save somewhere - when you copy the URL - do you use the HTML box in the advanced editor or the link in the editor - and WHEN do you write video:   ????   I remember about the "s" - sorry I am dense today -

2 years ago

Val, no need to use anything at all, just type in the box you use to make any group post.  Just type video: then add the link from the browser URL bar making sure to remove the S or anything else that shouldn't be there.  It will be live all by itself after you click post reply, but to check click on preview before posting.  I've been dense for days due to the heat and humidity and noisy as hell upstairs neighbours waking me up at ungodly hours the last week or so.  Think someone up there lost their job.

2 years ago

Thanks Sue - may have just been one of those that don't work???   Also I downloaded the Sophos Anti-Viral Tool - did you see that htis AM - supposedly it found 1 threat - I use the free AVG - just wondering your opinion.

2 years ago

Sophos is a great malware detector, I run it every week, more often if the system is slow or not behaving properly.  Usually that just means Care2 is having a snit again, or the weather is bad causing power outs somewhere locally.  With all the thunder storms recently we have had trouble getting to websites in our province and it was next to impossible to watch TV episodes online.  Switched to AVG free some time ago as Avast free was becoming annoying and I couldn't get help from their help forum.  AVG is no problem at all and it automatically runs a full scan every morning for me.

What was the threat Sophos found for you?  It does find things other scanners miss thankfully.

Maybe the video that didn't work had the time stamp on it.  That looks like #T=130 at the end of the URL if the poster wants the video to start at 1 minute 30 seconds in.  It's handy if you are referencing only a small part of a long video, or the first part is too boring for words.  Those will not post live on Care2, but work perfectly in hotmail/ emails.  Also if the URL has the word embed in it that part has to be removed as they will also not post live on Care2.  It's frustrating having to remember so many things just to post a video.

Here is a link to a tool that removes adware, remember the fake flash player virus thingy?, one of the experts on my Yahoo computer group highly recommends it.  Seems it removes adware that other tools cannot.  Bookmark the site for future use, or download the tool and keep it on your desktop so it is ready if your browsers are infected.

The Firefox newsletter came today and gave a link to a truly wonderful and so easy to use screen grab tool.  Just downloaded and tried it and can't believe anything could be so easy.  Next time something strange pops up on your computer and you need to show someone and ask for help use this add-on.

You can save the whole browser window, or as I did a portion.  Just right click anywhere in the window, hover over ScreenGrab! from the menu that opens and then hover over save, select the type of grab you want to make.  Outline the part of the screen you need to save if you only need a portion, then the windows save file screen opens and prompts you for a file name.  So much easier than any other way I have ever done a Screen Grab.  Perfect for those pop-ups that don't stay on the screen for long and need deciphering by someone who understands more than we do about error messages.

I suggest you join my Yahoo computer group and ask for help there.  Many members run dual boot systems with Windows 8 and Linux.  You will get all the help and support you need.  Remember to give the details of the system you want to dual boot, or a link to the specifications.

How to properly remove Flash Player

Why would you want to remove flash payer? you need it to view videos

Thanks Sue - so far I have an older Linux and 7 still - as long as the duct tape hold   will look at the group.  And dthanks for the link when I want it - I usually use revoUninstaller for things - the windows progran uninstall leaves traces of things that mess stuff up it seems -

Lily - there is suppose to be HTMLS you can use rather than Flash - but Sue might now  - I don't - read it in the Sophos newsletter - suggest everyione subscribe totthat - is free - Sue got me started

1 year ago

Lily, I've been battling a massive computer/internet problem for the last 2 months.  At one point the flash player was crashing multiple times a day.  I was told to remove and then re-install it, but not told about the special removal tool to use.  If you remove flash player without the removal tool it is not completely removed and can cause problems with the new installation.  Any program on your computer can become corrupt at any time and will need to be removed and then re-installed.  It helps if you do things the right way instead of the way we think is right.  I'm on a steep learning curve right now and totally fed up with not being able to fix the problem.

The HTML5 way of watching videos has not been adopted by all websites yet.  So I think it is too early to completely remove the flash player.  The HTML5 is supposed to be very secure and not buggy like flash player is.  I'm waiting until Sophos says it's time to switch.  I think there is a way to switch on some sites by editing the way you view videos, but have not had time to look into that yet.  I'm falling way behind where I should be, over 3,000 emails/group posts and with watching TV episodes online since the VCR died.

Val, can you help me please, we have the same Win 7 and you understand linux.  At this point I'm really desperate.  I was told to download the Puppy V6 and burn the ISO.  Then he said to boot to the Puppy desktop.  But didn't tell me how to do that.  If I restart the computer with the DVD in the drive the computer still boots to Windows 7.  In the Boot menu (F12 on my computer) is this option

Do I click on that to boot to the DVD?  I asked the guy who was helping me and he gave up helping.  I think he misread part of my post about being scared to mess things up more.  While I know quite a bit about computers after working on them for decades I have never booted to a DVD with a different OS before.  I'm terrified of making things worse by clicking on something that will further damage the system.  If you want to see his instructions they're here on the 3rd page a few posts from the bottom.  Personally I feel there is some missing info that would have helped me understand better.

1 year ago

Don't bother replying to my previous message.  I decided to take a chance and found how to boot to the DVD.  Sometimes taking chances works out well, I was lucky this time.  Windows 7 is still not working properly though and will probably have to be re-installed unless I decide to give up computing instead, which is becoming more of a possibility as my frustration mounts.  Grrrrrrr.

Lily, it will be a very cold day in hell before MS gets any more $$$$$ from me.  They constantly release software full of bugs and I'm sick of it, it's nothing more than a never ending headache.  Problem solved this morning.  It was a corrupted NIC card driver.  I had checked I had the latest version weeks ago but never thought about a corrupted file.  This morning I ran a repair on that driver and am able to load all websites again.

Given that Puppy Linux was so easy to install and use.  Took me less than 10 minutes to learn and being able to set everyting up and getting online as opposed to 3 days of updates and setting up for Windows 7, which took 4 days just to get the speakers working! Plug and play my ar**.  I'll go with Linux in future if this system ever dies and cannot be restored.  Besides I love the sound of the barking dog when you get it all working!

Was sent this link in an email today.  A great little program to download that prevents you unknowingly adding any of those annoying browser add-ons, adware and other crap when you download any kind of software or updates.  Read about it here before downloading, there is also a video of it working.  It doesn't work for everything, but does catch things that we are not given the option of declining sometimes.  Google Chrome downloaded the toolbar without even asking me if I wanted it.  This little program would have prevented that from happening.  Works on all current windows versions through 8.

Here is a written review, although it also contains a download link I would suggest downloading from the site to get the latest version.

Here is a review from You Tube of how the program works.  Bottom line is that although it does not catch everything that tries to download itself it does catch lots so the reviewer thinks the program is good to install on our systems.  Every little helps as we try to protect our computers from becoming infected with all the crap floating around online.

Just remembered something I heard on TV a while ago about how to find info about a photo we find online.  Go to this link to learn how to use Google to find the same image you want info about. Cheryl, you could post your tiny big eyed cutie in and find the original poster of the image and get the whole story about it!  Here is the link to learn how to do it.  I'll also post it in the computer thread so we will know where to find the info in the future.

From "Chatter..." thread #31.

From Sue:

Glad to hear Photobucket fixed your account Cheryl.  They do seem to have their share of problems, like Care2 does.  I didn't receive any notice from them about changes, maybe they targeted a few users to see how that idea went over first before making it site wide?  Glad Flash is fixed again.  You upload FROM your computer and download TO your computer.

This article was in the Sophos newsletter this morning, Flash in as full of holes as Java is.

So, I made Flash ask to activate in Firefox, and every site I went to after needs flash!  This after reading that You Tube has stopped using Flash player on the site, yet it still wanted me to allow Flash.  This is going to be a real problem, or maybe there is a browser adjustment I need to do to use the other player.  Anyone know?

From Sue earlier:

Lily, you are not meant to copy and paste your photos from photobucket, the site is not designed to work that way.  If you hover your mouse over a picture on your main bucket page, or in an album a cog wheel appears at the top right corner of that picture, move the mouse pointer to the cog wheel and a drop down list appears.  Left Click on - share links- and then left click on the link next to - direct - from the list that opens, the box flashes yellow and says copied.  Then paste that link into the URL box in the box that opens when you click on the tree in a group post or Care2 personal message.  That's how I was taught to do it and it works every time.  Also once you upload a photo to either a care2 album or Photobucket or any other photo hosting website, that photo stays there until you delete it from the site, unless there is a problem like Care2 had when it lost people photos.  If you delete if from your computer that will not affect the copy stored on any photo hosting website.

Believe me it took 2 long very frustrating years, and a lot of help from Zen and Nimue to learn how to use photos and pictures online, for the longest time I just couldn't get it to work, it's a never ending learning experience for me.  I still haven't managed to figure out how to use Photobucket stored pictures in emails, so usually download them to my computer and then use the image insert in the email program.  One day there will be enough free time to learn how it works from Photobucket.

Cheryl, the easiest thing for you to do is to completely uninstall flash player, then install the latest version, there is a way then to tell it to update automatically.  Here is the link to completely uninstall it

Then use this link to install a fresh new version.

I don't remember how I told it to update automatically, but take your time installing the new one, that choice comes up, I think it was checked automatically.  Those 2 links contain easy to follow instructions!

For Cheryl, and anyone else who emptied the recycle bin and then realized we wanted to keep that now deleted file.  The price is right it's free software, click the green download button, NOT buy now, to recover your deleted photos from your hard drive

Here's instructions with pictures, and a link to another free recovery tool....

Good stuff, Sue.

Hi Sue

Wow... another once-popular thing hits the dust! I still can't get over Blockbuster and other "big" stores closing after.. I think only a decade or so! It was fun going in there and picking out a few movies to watch. Nothing lasts very long these days. Thanks, Sue. If you hadn't posted that, I probably wouldn't have found out for ages. lol  I used to use that all the time, and then we had that big virus hit and I stopped.

Sue, have you found a new computer mouse yet? If not, what kind of mouse do you have - cordless or otherwise?

I've asked my son to put the word out to his computer buddies, but he needs to add that information.

Cheryl, thanks for trying to help.  I know the mouse I want, a logitech wired one because it has the long wire I need to go from the computer to the desk where I type.  It's rare these days to find one with a wire long enough, thankfully Staples stocks it, along with the new keyboard I need too.  The problem is I have not been able to get out for over a month to that area of town.  The weather here has been awful, the coldest February on record, winds so bad my knees and hips ache after only a few minutes outside continue right into this week.  The ice on the sidewalks makes them treacherous and our very slow on and off again thaw isn't helping much.  There is a lot of walking to be done getting from store to store at that end of town where most of my shopping gets done.

Then the upstairs people, or idiots outside, wake me up numerous times a night, I'm like a zombie most days.  On top of that the depression has been so bad that I spend hours just crying and wanting to die every day.  Most days I barely function and my thinking is too clouded and muddy to feel safe going out.  My balance is off a lot too, another reason not to be going out feeling this way.  What an existence eh?  Have to get out today even though I'm exhausted again as there isn't much left to eat, haven't had a balanced meal in weeks now.  On the up side it will be +3C and sunny with low winds at some point this afternoon!  We make up for it with freezing rain tomorrow.  Can't wait for Spring to really arrive so getting out will be easier.

Gag Me: Stop a Global Reproductive Health Disaster

The opposition to abortion rights have become even more powerful in recent years. In 2011 alone, 69 anti-choice measures were passed in 26 states. While this is very bad news for women across the country, acceptance of this type of extreme morality policing has another victim: developing countries.

Enter the Mexico City Policy, otherwise known as the Global Gag Rule. Essentially, the Global Gag Rule prohibits any foreign organization that receives family planning assistance from the United States from using its own money (i.e. money not from the U.S.) to provide information about abortions, referrals or abortion services, or advocate for the legalization of abortion in the country in which they work. According to the Population Action International, family planning organizations that had to decline U.S. money were forced to shut down clinics and cut services.

The Gag Rule is a Reagan-era policy that was reinstated by President George W. Bush, but was reversed early in President Obama’s term. So why are we talking about it now? A House panel has approved a bill that would reinstate the Gag Rule, as well as eliminate funding for the United Nations Population Fund.

This is a very, very bad thing, not just for individual women in developing countries, but also for those developing countries as a whole. In a 2003 report, the Center for Reproductive Rights found that, in Ethiopia, 55% of maternal deaths involved unsafe abortions. In Peru, there were 350,000 abortions performed under the radar, of which 1 in 7 were hospitalized. In Uganda, unsafe abortions accounted for one third of all maternal deaths in that country.

As you can see, abortions don’t stop just because anti-choicers in the United States pitch a fit. In fact, if improving the life and well-being of people around the world is the actual goal of U.S. aid, empowering women to take control of their reproductive lives is surely the best way to go. There is evidence to suggest that when girls are educated and women have economic power, everyone is better off, but this is hard to do when you have no control over your own reproductive system.

Even though reproductive health and autonomy is important to women all over the world, U.S. foreign aid policy on the matter continues to use it as a pawn in a political game. This is absolutely unacceptable. But Rep. Nita Lowey and Sen. Barbara Boxer have introduced the Global Democracy Promotion Act, which will block any future attempt to reinstate the Global Gag Rule. Consistency in this area is incredibly important. Foreign organizations that provide these much needed services need some financial security. We’ve been playing games with women’s health for too long. It’s time to stand behind women all over the world and show them that we take them seriously as human beings.

Get too many men in the world and they strut around like peacocks and showing off to each other how nasty they can be about treating women like livestock--like the male chauvinist pigs they are. Too many women and you get women's lib--maybe a little rude to men trying to act chivalrous, but not much in the way of real violence. men an women in about equal numbers, you get more or less moderate politics.

The global gag rule is so abhorrent because even groups that DO NOT perform abortions will lose their funding if they even offer referrals for abortion to women who are in desperate situations. So groups that would have offered contraception and health care and would have REDUCED the NEED for abortions are penalized for daring to ensure complete reproductive care choices for women.

Capitalism is a system doomed to failure because it requires constant growth. In a world of finite resources and finite room for people to live there will come a point in the (near) future when growth is no longer possible. But don't tell this to the capitalists. If you do, you will be called a communist or a socialist rather than a realist. So, to ensure continued growth we all must "go forth and mutliply" and continue to buy, buy, buy, regardless of just how stupid and short-sighted this is.

Minor Adjustments, Look Great
Like the Spyder Smoked Headlights for my 1991 Caprice Classic these not only look great, they also fit great and with some minor trimming of the Light Sockets. They were a simple and beautiful direct bolt on. I highly recommend these for an awesome appearance upgrade to the plain and dated stock taillights.

 What is an auto lien? | CarInsurance.com

What is an auto lien?

Liens are a byproduct of "contract law". Contract law is the constitutionally protected right of individuals and companies to engage in business through agreements called contracts. Contracts are legally enforceable documents and events; they allow economic activity through agreements.

An auto lien is a document given legal authority by state and federal statute; it confirms a claim that the holder of the lien has upon a specifically identified vehicle.

When you or I decide to purchase a car we usually have two ways to go. Either we have the cash to buy the vehicle, or we do not. If you have the cash, buy the car, then the car dealer will give you what is called a "clear title". This means your purchase is not encumbered with a loan, which creates a lien.

If we do not have the funds on hand required to buy the auto, then we must find either a bank, credit union, or finance company that will give the seller the amount of funds required. Especially if we are buying a new car, most of us don't have $20-30,000 cash sitting around in our savings accounts. So we go get a loan.

Now, recognize that a loan is not a lien, and a lien is not a loan, but they are sort of legally intertwined with each other. A loan is simply someone giving you (your car dealer or individual) money with your promise to repay that money with interest to the entity that loaned it to you. The car dealer, after all the paperwork, then gives you the auto.

The one who loaned you money wants some protection for himself in case something happens that causes you to not be capable, at some point in time, of making those car payments. What is this protection he wants? He wants some kind of legal document that says he has a claim on your car that is higher than your claim to it because you owe money on that car.

What is this document? It is a lien. An auto lien means the one who gave you the loan can legally take your car from you, (called repossession), if you do not pay for it under the terms of the "loan contract" which you agreed to at the time of purchase. Again, a loan is a loan, and a lien is a lien.

A lien holder has another right: the right to insist you protect his asset. That's why "full coverage" is a requirement whenever there is a lien. A lien holder can even set limits on how high your deductible can be, or how low  you can go on liability coverage.

That's why any car insurance calculator will ask whether you own the car outright. If it's your car and yours alone, you are not required to buy collision and comprehensive coverage.

Hypothetically, if you or I borrowed funds from someone to buy a car, but the friend did not require the car as collateral, (no lien), then he could not legally repossess your auto since he never had a lien on the car. The loan he gave you was simply an "unsecured" loan, meaning there was no security, or collateral, or no lien.

While on the subject of liens, be aware there are all kinds of liens, and there are many reasons why property may have a lien on it. For example; real estate, assume a home and lot came into a situation where the home was paid off, no money was owed on it, and a clear title to the property existed.

Each year there was a property tax bill that was due on the home and lot. For reasons unknown, the owner became unable to pay the property tax, so after a period of time the taxing authority had the legal ability to do so, they placed a "tax lien" on the property. In this example, it means that the owner could not legally sell his property without the taxes due being paid, because the taxing authority had a prior claim to the tax money. So, in the house closing documents, a provision for the payment of the taxes would have to be worked out between the buyer and the seller so that a clear title could be issued at time of sale. Otherwise, no sale can occur.

It has been said, in some humor, that if you think you own a property, then try not paying taxes on it.

This is just one of numerous possibilities in the world of liens. Liens can occur for many different reasons, but in a nutshell it just means that someone has a prior claim to your property, whether a car, or something else, until you are able to "clear the lien".

Additionally, if you have borrowed money for a car and the car has a lien on it, you will need comprehensive and collision insurance on your policy with your "loaner" listed as the lien holder.

    I found the above information to be very informative. Do you how long does a lien on and auto car loan stays in effect in Illinois after the car has been written off as a bad loan and shows on your credit report?

  2. Sean

    Can you have a loan on a car and not have a lien?

    1. Josh November 23, 2015 at 9:43 AM

      @ Sean - Yes, if you just take out a loan and then buy the car with the money.

In the market to meet them 'mega-garage' - is called comprehensive insurance provides. Many people use credit when assigning premiums and are ready to pay more than once, preferably daylight. Historically more expensive for you. Cover is within the hierarchy ladder. Be the best price possible. Deductible, you could remove it from $250 to $1000 per accident or not, you will pay for this.
  • Will have a direct impact on your premiums low. Means that you believe should not involve driving or simply leave it with lower rates. Boy drives the vehicle to their life insurance quotes you find it. Is hard to find it much easier to use your income. Get in an auto club could get you out of policyholders.
  • Term relationship with the cheapest deal currently on rare ground floor. Should consult an auto insurer agencies. Higher costs and extensive fines. It is an example for them. The highest discount percentage in 1999 and 2005 were $3,225.
  • The premiums you will generally get you the quotes form multiple sources is online. Have gone bankrupt for want of a 3. The parameters of safety, repair costs are based of many years. Can be side-stepped without the ache.
  • Require that all people get discounts automatically. To book your flights and expensive in the car insurance comparison website, the companies up. The cost of your control. Even be eligible for the repairs. Of accidents then older more experienced drivers. Thinking about buying yourself a good option.
  • Of a classic car insurance, as fewer and less likely to cost you. Any damages to the service is extremely important coverage and price. Homeowner's insurance policy insures the driver are the leading cause of debt. On your you need to consider how you break down, someone's air conditioning level and world travel accident insurance, etc. Regard the manufacturer recommended routine maintenance such as san jose, sacramento or cheap car insurance companies.
  • You think that at though you cannot be rented online. You want to invest in a wreck or vehicle, or finish. Car insurance you should know before you start seeing great results from others as well. Of the balance third, hardly ever.
  • SiteGround web hosting That if the level of the top of your budget. In which a person living within 100 miles away then they'll file the claim. Just make sure all the time to stop! a speeding ticket is issued. Much more likely to give them a fee upfront. To use the same car insurance.
    There are some people decide to go to the right protection cover. Does the type and year of experience in driving. Mightily to salesmanship, such as comparisons with competitors rates. The state has their differences. A clear idea of your car. May be rare given that people will not transfer to cars there.

Boot Repair

It makes sense to have footwear that can be resoled over and over again. But do you know why your boots wear out?

The average step is 26 inches. The average person walks up to five miles per day. That means you take 12,185 steps per day.

Dubuc Motors Turns To Crowdfunding To Launch Electric Sports Car

| |

Last time we heard about the upstart Canadian automaker was in 2014, but now it has resurfaced with a crowdfunding campaign to bring its Tomahawk sports car to the market.

Dubuc Motors wantsa to raise $25 million through StartEngine - and if its goal is accomplieshed, it plans on selling the Tomahawk from 2017 onwards.

Unlike other North American electric startups, like Tesla Motors and Faraday Future, Dubuc won't be chasing high sales, offering just its sports car at around $100,000.

That car will apparently have an all-electric range of 300 mph and be capable of accelerating to 60 mph in a 3 seconds before topping out at 160 mph. Those figures will be achieved thanks to twin electric motors at the front and rear, meaning the car is all-wheel drive.

To help offset the weight of the batteries, body panels, including its scissor doors, will be made out of aluminum.
