Chiropractor Dr. Robert Smith will be at the Plaza de Pueblo, Saturday, May 10th from 8:00 am-1:00 pm.
===========================================

    As we all know, Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft. That means you maybe in the market for an alternative laptop. The Acer C720 Chromebook at $200 on Amazon may be a cheaper alternative than a full on laptop. Chromebook is a generic name for a computer that uses the Google Chrome Browser as its entire operating system. It’s designed to be used primarily on-line. The original version had little use off-line but the newer versions of the Chromebooks work with apps off line and on line. They are primarily designed for checking email and surfing the web. There are no viruses for the Chromebook. If things don’t look right, turn it off and back on again. For a review of the C720, here is a link: http://twit.tv/show/before-you-buy/106
     Summer travel tips: For airline flights use: Start with kayak.com for most flights, mobissimo.com for international and remember to check the Southwest web page since they don’t participate in search engines. For hotels, use: Hotwire.com, airbnb.com,  priceline.com and hoteltonight.com. Look at biddingtraveler.com if you’re bidding for travel. Tripadviser.com will provide you with reviews of just about everything and everywhere. Yelp.com is another review site. You can find all this and more at the following link: http://www.clarkhoward.com/topics/booking-and-planning-guide/
     Remember if you continue to check the same flight and the price rises, use a different browser and look again.
     For Geeks: I recently switched to a new Modem – TP Link TD 8817. Bring your own DHCP router. It works really well and easy port forwarding unfortunately no built-in VPN. It can be configured in bridge mode to use your high end router with VPN capability. The protocol must be changed since it will not work right out of the box. I have screen shots and setting page for anyone interested.

Many of our returning wounded veterans need assistance with integrating back into civilian life. The "Wounded Warrior Project" provides that assistance in many ways. I created the "550 Fund" to help support this effort. Please help by visiting the site and purchasing a 550 paracord survival bracelet, dog collar or key chain. Proceeds go to the "Wounded Warrior Project." Please share the link with your friends: http://www.wzaponline.com/550_fund. Thank you for your support of this important project!

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

a.   Baby Birds:

          1) Most baby birds are not orphans.
Figuring it out it takes patience but if you wait long enough you will usually find the parents calling the chicks.
If you have come across a fledgling flightless chick on the ground take some time to assess the situation before you pursue any heroics. It may appear as if the chick has fallen or been abandoned, If you observe the chick for long enough, you will probably see the parents coming back to feed it at regular intervals.
If feathered chicks are in a nest and you think they have been abandoned wait and see. The parents just may be trying to encourage them to leave the nest. Many species leave the nest before they are able to fly. Nests attract predators and mites.
Lots of info on the web.
http://m.wikihow.com/Feed-a-Baby-Bird
Best to leave uninjured baby birds alone. If you cannot stand it keep a lookout for the parents it may take hours. They won't come if they sense you are too close.
 

       2)  http://www.2ndchance.info/insecteater.htm

b.  Bank Fees Discussion

     1)  Just as a head's-up:  I went to the main office of BBVA Bancomer here in Cabo San Lucas today to confirm the info I saw. I have had both peso and dollar accounts at BBVA Bancomer for quite a few years with no problems whatsoever. So when I went in today and talked to my representative I was informed that the minimum balance amounts will not change. I asked in both spanish and english and was told the same information. The minimum balance requirements will not change on June 1st, 2014.
     So for what it's worth, that is what I found out today - - - 07 May 2014 at 1:30pm.
