Dr. S. Checker, PhD

A recent study conducted in America's schools indicates that our Nation, as a whole are becoming worse and worse at Spelling.  The study attributed the decline of our Nation and of our Students and Children to our Word Processors' Spell Checkers.

The Answer is not with our Computers.  The Answer is within Ourselves. 
Every time that the Spell Checker corrects your mistake you can "Just Let It", or you can be eternally grateful for the onset of technology in Education. 
This is the "Mind" part of Wellness. !!!
Here is a list of 100 most-misspelled words:

It is not that how the spell checker corrects our mistakes, it is how we respond to that correction.  I think of Doctor S. Checker, PhD in English.  Every time the Doctor Checker corrects me, I use it as an opportunity to learn.  The more it goes, the more I improve, the closer I become to being just as efficient as Dr. Checker.

Think about it is!

Getting Your Air Conditioner Ready for Summer By Sandor Nagyszalanczy Most of us don't give our air conditioners a thought till that first hot, insufferably humid day. But with a little cleaning and maintenance beforehand, you'll be sitting cool when everyone else is lugging their AC to the repair shop. Moreover, an annual inspection and cleaning ensures lower operating costs and a longer life for your cooling equipment, whether it's a central air conditioner or a window- or wall-mounted room unit. Room Air Conditioners You can leave room units in place all year long and cover them when they're not in use, but they'll last longer if you remove and store them during the cool season. Before you reinstall a room air conditioner in its window opening, inspect and clean the cooling fins and coils on its outside exhaust surface. (The unit should have an access panel you can remove to clean them; consult your owner's manual for instructions.) Because ...

Mentally: Diversity in your plantings

Check out the moss plantings available to you -- you know, a small corner that's now indistinguishable rendered distinctive. http://www.mossacres.com/shade-plants.asp . More! Check out http://tispaquin.blogspot.com/2009/05/planting-baby-ferns-in-your-yard.html where more fern information is available. Plant some strawberries, rhubarb, sage, in amongst the garden path.  Place a bench surrounded by at least ten different yet coordinated species.  Even amongst every-day plants like Hostas -- strive for at least three distinguishable varieties. This is a yard of an educated person -- one where thought and love, care, research are involved.  Don't follow the neighborhood and just make a nice arrangement of three or four different shrubs (the same ones everybody else has because these gardens were mass produced -- so to speak.  Homes of Distinction are exactly that.  Homes of Distinction.  Unless you wallpaper will actual ten-dollar bills, distinctive homes a...

Sometimes, I find an article or a page that is just so good, I can't go any further.  And, so in this Holiday Weekend, I am referring you to a site I found.  :  http://www.emmitsburg.net/gardens/articles/frederick/2005/spring_chores.htm Early Spring Garden Chores Annette Ipsan Frederick County Master Gardener Program All of us are anxious to see bulbs sprouting, buds unfurling and color splashed throughout the garden. And yes, even though it is a bit early to get your hands in the dirt, there is plenty you can do to gear up for the gardening season. March is a great month for trimming and tidying. Now is when you should cut back your ornamental grasses. Hand pruners do a good job on smaller clumps, but hedge trimmers are handy for larger clumps. Hold or tie the old growth with twine and ...
