19 Mar 2013 - 12:19Hi. I just wanted to let you know that the background in my "Luck" Layout was very easy to do. I just used a template from the Background Blenders 4 included in this months's Scrap Simple Club. Added four different papers to it and then added another SS paper template (the hearts) on top of that with again another paper clipped to that. Let me know if other questions. Happy scrap... -

Bon Secours St. Mary's Hospital has achieved "Triple Crown" from Thomson Reuters, an industry leader in health care data. The hospital has been recognized three times this year—for excellence in overall organization performance in the 2012 Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals study; as a recipient of the Everest Award, which honors hospitals that have achieved both the highest current performance and the fastest long-term improvement over a five-year period; and as one of the nation's 50 Top Hospitals for Cardiovascular Care.

Judge Davis and the Muslim-American muddle
Minnesota is home to the largest Somali community in the United States, numbering at least 25,000. If it takes a village, we have a couple. Yet we know amazingly little about the Somali community, probably because we are afraid to ask the relevant questions. We know they are mostly Muslim — we can see the hijabs, we are familiar with the many local controversies to which their faith has given »
On section 1203
A reader with a long background of employment at the IRS writes on an aspect of the IRS scandal that hasn't received much attention and that draws on his experience at the agency: I'm a fan and regular reader. Thanks for your yeoman's work on the IRS scandal. I'm also retired from a 35-year law enforcement career, 22 of which were at the IRS Criminal Investigation Division, so I have »
Advancing the IRS story
My daughter Eliana has a carefully reported piece at NRO on the IRS scandal that was posted late yesterday afternoon. The piece is titled "Oversight from Washington, all along." I hesitate to highlight or praise the work of my own daughter, but Hugh Hewitt is under no such inhibition. Hugh praises the work of Eliana as well as that of his Townhall colleague Carol Platt Liebau as "The real reporting »
NR on Watergate
Writing from memory yesterday morning, I recalled the role George Will had played as National Review's Washington columnist during Watergate. I was faithfully reading the magazine in 1973 and 1974, and I think I was remembering Will's NR columns accurately, but I was also recalling an inside account written, I thought, by William Buckley or NR senior editor Jeffrey Hart. I couldn't find what I was thinking of in Buckley's »
Live from the Upper Midwest Employment Law Institute
At the moment I am listening to the ostentatiously liberal Judge Mark Bennett of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa summarize the Supreme Court's employment law decisions of the past year. Judge Bennett wants us to know that he has got his mind right (i.e., left), and how. I understood that from his disparagement of the conservative Supreme Court justices as "the usual suspects." That »
In search of an honest liberal journalist
Having lived through the Watergate scandal and the impeachment of President Nixon, I recall that one conservative journalist stood out from the pack. As the Washington columnist for National Review, George Will regularly exposed the Nixon administration's lines of defense as the lies that they were. He distinguished himself both for his merciless analytical rigor and his skills as an anatomist. Will was in the infancy of his now long »
Live from the Upper Midwest Employment Law Institute
I'm attending the two-day Upper Midwest Employment Law Institute in St. Paul this year. It's a great program that attracts leading practitioners from all around the country. I have attended several times in years past, but this year I'm here because I need the continuing legal education credits (including Minnesota's offensive get-your-mind right elimination-of-bias requirement) before June 30. The institute program draws a large audience which begins with plenary sessions »
Where was Obama?
The Wall Street Journal reports that the White House counsel was advised of the Inspector General's audit findings weeks ago. Doug Ross has compiled a useful IRS scandal timeline into which this latest tidbit fits. A friend with substantial experience as a chief executive officer looks back on what we have learned to date about the IRS harassment of Obama administration political opponents. He raises the issue of executive responsibility: »
What about the video?
What is the provenance of the Muhammad video in the Benghazi talking points? Our inability to answer the question is in itself a clue. Steve Hayes follows the paper trail and reconstructs what his reporting has revealed to date in the Weekly Standard article "What about the video?" Steve characterizes the attribution of causal effect to the video a "quadruple bank shot," but leaves open the question of who was »
A durable libel
Charles Enderlin is the France 2 Jerusalem correspondent who broadcast the incendiary account of the death of 12-year-old Muhammad al-Dura at the hands of Israeli troops operating in the Gaza Strip in September 2000. Based on film footage provided by a Palestinian cameraman, Enderlin's report has become infamous among students of Arab propaganda both for its destructive effects and for its probable falsity. The al-Dura affair bids to join the »
On first looking into Chapman's Nixon
Our friends at RealClearPolitics have posted Steve Chapman's Chicago Tribune column "The false Nixon equivalence." It addresses the subject I took up in "Nixon's IRS" and, more broadly, in "A Watergate footnote." Chapman makes the case that comparisons of Obama with Nixon in the matter of the current IRS scandal are misguided. I think the comparison is useful. The outrages committed by the IRS under Obama in the past few »
Nixon's IRS
One of the articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon included his alleged misuse of the IRS. Article 2 of the Articles of Impeachment was carefully framed to charge that Nixon "endeavored to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposes not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, »
MS. found in a boat
CBS News reports: Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev left a note claiming responsibility for the April 15 attack on the Boston Marathon, reports CBS News senior correspondent John Miller. Sources tell Miller that Tsarnaev wrote the note in the boat he was hiding in as police pursued him, and as he bled from gunshot wounds sustained in an earlier shootout between police and his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev. It reads »
P.S. on the AP
According to Eric Holder, Eric Holder is no more responsible for the investigation of the Associated Press than Barack Obama is for events in Benghazi according to Barack Obama. That was Holder's theme in his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, which I first read about yesterday in a post by Allahpundit at Hot Air. Looking around for a narrative account of Holder's testimony this morning, I find the liberal »

Some general thoughts about reconnecting with high school friends: in my experience (and I've only been out of school for 9 years) sometimes it just doesn't work.
Was your husband disappointed in finding out that his friend hadn't moved on from the mentaility of high school?
Was your husband disappointed in finding out that his friend hadn't moved on from the mentaility of high school?This is one of the BEST Freudian typos EVER!! oops, I had to reread that several times before picking up the mistake. Guess my proofreading skills aren't as good as I thought. LOL
As for Angela, she may not have liked them but may have that she felt that she had to go along with their behavior to be a good hostess.

Gingers unite as League of Extraordinary Red Heads holds first meeting VIDEO
TROY — No soul was safe inside Bootlegger's on Broadway Wednesday evening as a sea of red heads flocked to the bar for the inaugural biannual meeting of the League of Extraordinary Red Heads, where an extensive agenda was tackled.
As people walked through the front door of Bootlegger's, they were immediately greeted by a sign with the details of the agenda, which really only had two topics: Us and Them.
But for group founder Duncan Crary, the event was really just meant for red heads or "gingers" to meet up, have a few drinks and have a good time. He also believes there are a lot more red heads in the city than people realize.
"I started doing it because this city is up to its ears in red heads," Crary said. "And it seems to be increasing over the years. Every bar seems to have one working there."
For the various red heads who were at Bootlegger's on Wednesday, the idea of a room full of gingers was a hilarious one and, since Crary said the stereotype that most are gregarious was true, it would be fun.
Sarah McGaughnea, an employee of Finbar's Pub, said she wasn't really sure what to expect when she heard a bar would be full of red heads as she was usually the only one in the room. But Crary's pitch was good enough for her.
"I was really excited," McGaughnea said. "Duncan has a good spiel. He sells it well."
Lauren Hittinger, director of communications and events at The Arts Center, said she had heard about the event just through knowing Crary, who claims to know every red head in the city. Hittinger was curious as to what the night would bring and thought the idea of having a gathering of the gingers could be fun.
"I thought it was a crazy idea," Hittinger said. "It's kind of goofy and silly. I figured it would be fun to see who would show up."
It is easy to be spotted in a crowd of people if you are a red head, said Anasha Cummings, who added he never really thought any of the stereotypes bestowed on gingers were ever really negative. The event itself, though, was an interesting experiment in getting a large number of people from a very narrow cross-section of the population together, meaning the main thing most of them had in common was the color of their hair.
"It's about getting people together," Cummings said.
Even if there wasn't a large congregation of gingers in the room, Crary said red heads can usually just sense when other red heads are in the room. It also helps that red heads tend to be more outgoing and energetic than others.
Kathleen Liebach, owner of Café Deli-icious doesn't dispute the claim red heads are considered to be lively, but also said they are also reportedly dangerous.
"People perceive us as feisty and dangerous, but why?" Liebach said. "It's because that's how we've been portrayed throughout history."
For Brendan Baxter, an employee of the Charles F. Lucas Confectionary, being a ginger is a point of pride.
"It lets people know of my Irish descent," Baxter said. "Because people know the Irish are hard workers. It cuts out a lot of B.S."
The meeting was the first of two for the year, Crary said, but he looks to play with the idea that people are afraid of not just having a ginger in the room, but being outnumbered by them as well. At an unannounced time at an undisclosed location, Crary said gingers will slowly, one-by-one, fill the area of a bar before people even notice the room is full of red heads. This was what he referred to as "The Red Tide."
"Not since the age of the Vikings have gingers posed a greater threat to world order," Crary said.

I have'nt bought this yet. I wanted to know how the sizes are running because I am going to have a c-section and am getting "fixed" at the same time, so I need support, but don't want it to be super tight.Leonisa's response: Hi Eva! Contact costumer service at 1-800-657-9107 or email@example.com for personalized advice, or you can check our size charts at the product page.
I gave birth to a beautifull baby boy about 5 days ago, when I came home from the hospital about 3 days ago I started wearing the Tummy Reducer Post-Partum Panty and I have to say the only thing I regret is not buying enough of them.. This is by far the best postpartum girdle. I have worn a girdle after all of my kids (3) and this is by far the most effective one. My tummy has went down drastically even my husband was shocked at the results! I do believe that by wearing this everyday for two weeks I will be back to my regular size. Thank you so so much for manufactoring this panty !!!
I had my second c-section and started to wear this undie on the 4th day of post pardon. It was painless to put on and off. Made sleeping and rolling over in bed easier to handle. I believe it help reduce my swelling quick. I am currently two weeks post pardom and I am shock to find my tummy already feeling back in shape. It had a firm hold which I felt it was much better than the other post pardon undie's I had purchase. I wish I had bought this during my 1st c-section.
To avoid altered measurements wear a fitted panty.
Bounce back after having your baby or after your tummy tuck.
You have two options to choose the size of your panty
To avoid altered measurements, wear an unpadded/lightly lined fitted bra.
Try on instant confidence with heavenly push up under a controlled environment. Wide back wings in powernet polishes bulges to sleek perfection. Push up grandeur with contour underwire cups promotes seductive cleavage. No slipping allowed - the back and sides are bordered with an anti-slip band to secure it in place. Side-boning keeps those babies centered and maximizes cleavage. This bra is versatile paradise; remove the straps to wear strapless, halter, criss-cross or one strap. Free your hands and let this bra do its job!
Very comfortable and sexy at the same time. I would like to see more colors in this bra and even some lace I am a 38DD and this is the best bra ! But sexier prints would make it even more perfect! Thankyou
I love it
This is my favorite bra ever! It is so comfortable yet sexy! And is perfect for larger busts.I have bought every color that has come out in this bra. My only complaint is that I wish it came in many more colors and designs and even with lace. I am DD and would like more bright, sexy colors and designs in this bra :)
This bra provides excellent back support and a slimmer look.
Bra cups offer great coverage and control. If you want to avoid minimizing the volume of your breasts, select a larger cup size for more comfort.
A multitasking bra for an active, multitalented woman! Its back in X reinforcement made of powernet provides excellent back support and helps maintain good posture throughout the day. Double layered contour cups have good coverage and provide a nice bust shape. Firm control smoothes bra bulges. Wireless, wide underbust band for support while exercising. Its wide, adjustable straps are comfortable and provide the best support to reduce the weight of your bust on shoulders. Wear this bra for several different occasions: daily, for exercising, maternity/breastfeeding and after breast surgery. A super bra for a super woman!
I had a breast reduction, it's comfortable to wear and I bought another one. I really like it
I love this bra, I bought it to wear after my breast surgery, it's great for keeping your bust in place and to feel secure. I will continue to wear it, I have 2 of them. I like the quality. thank you
Women tend toward round shoulders as we age. Lionisa is a reminder to stand tall and roll our shoulders back. It doesn't do the work for me. It gently reminds me to stand tall. Improved posture makes wearers appear more youthful. Front closures are difficult in that I rely on a mirror or my glasses to align and fasten hooks easily. Results are worth it though and I've been recommending back support Lionisa to friends.

I don't know about the warning label
=D> =D> Gethen, I love the way you fall right into things like this!!!Originally Posted by Nicolas
I have a rather large collection of these labels. The one about the scooter is new to me, but I already knew about the toilet brush My absolute favorite, though, is the warning label on a curling iron:
"For external use only"
WHO did WHAT with the curling iron to prompt that label, I want to know?
Seriously, there are some stupid people out there. I know some.-- A scooter with the warning "This product moves when used."
-- A digital thermometer with the advice "Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally."
-- An electric blender used for chopping and dicing that reminds users to "Never remove food or other items from the blades while the product is operating."
-- And a three-inch bag of air used for packaging that read "Do not use this product as a toy, pillow, or flotation device."
The windshield sunshade I use in my car has a warning label to "not use when operating the vehicle". #-o
Of course, you're right about that. However, I don't think that's the real reason for inane labeling. It's that a lot of these people want someone else to pay for their stupidity...and pay a lot.Originally Posted by Candy
I remember many years ago, when I had a serious bicycling habit, reading about a lawsuit in NJ, I think. It seems a not-so-bright fellow was riding his bicycle at night, with no light, and was struck by a car. He sued the bicycle manufacturer, claiming they should have warned him that doing so was dangerous. He won.
Things like this just further entrench an adage in my mind...
"A word to the wise is unnecessary. It's the really stupid people who need all the help they can get."
And yet, nothing can match the stupidity of wetnap labels
For those of us who haven't studied them, they read as followed:
Tear open
Don't tell anyone, but my mother once purchased diesel fuel for my brothers propane heater. #-o
Well, if you take a pack of cookies in the local shop, it reads "open here" on top, but still you aren't allowed to!! Sue them, I say.
I stole that one

On the toilet brush one, I can see how a toilet brush might resemble a brush one might use for scrubbing your back. While I wouldn't want to use the same brush for both purposes, I am not sure I can come up with a reason why a toilet brush couldn't be used for personal hygiene, or especially shouldn't be used that way.

If that was the worst mistake I'd made in the last six days, I'd be happy. :wink:Originally Posted by zebo-the-fat
A reference from the peanut growers
Peanuts, along with beans and peas, belong to the single plant family, Leguminosae. Legumes are edible seeds enclosed in pods. As a group, they provide the best source of concentrated protein in the plant kingdom. While their physical structure and nutritional benefits more closely resemble that of other legumes, their use in diets and cuisines more closely resembles that of nuts
I consider that one legitimate. For someone who is deathly allergic to nuts, but not peanuts, this is a very serious warning. It exists because same machinery is used to package all varieties of "nuts", and is often not cleaned in between. So the package of peanuts MAY have traces of (for example) macademia nuts, and vice versa.Originally Posted by Swift

Oh, and Swedish chainsaw's don't have a warning label telling the operator to not stop it with genitals, even though there's an urban legend that they do.
There was a premade Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich lunch set that was called Giggles To Go. The warning labels stated "Contains Peanuts".
I just came back from Colorado where I saw two signs on the side of a condo-
"WARNING: Falling Snow, do not park within 20 feet of building"
"Parking beside building for permit holders only"
Well, it's not exactly falling. It's more like pointing in a certain direction that's guaranteed to steer the conversation in an interesting direction. :wink:Originally Posted by Wally

Actually, I have a separate toilet brush that I reserve for scrubbing out my Jacuzzi tub...works great on the jets and saves on the uncomfortable bending and reaching! Don't know about the personal hygiene thing though, sounds like it could be painful.

Education and Training: Those who wish to enter the field of marriage and family therapy must first complete undergraduate training. This can either be in the form of a Masters degree or a Doctoral Degree. A Masters degree typically takes 2 to 3 years to complete and a Doctoral degree is usually 3 to 5 years. Then, 2 years of clinical experience and 3 to 4 years of clinical training must be completed. On average, a marriage and family therapist must undergo at least 12 years of training before he or she can complete the state licensing exam to become certified.
Many people who choose to enter this profession are already established as a psychologist, social worker, nurse, or counselor.
Marriage & Family Therapist FAQs:
What is a Marriage and Family Therapist
A Marriage & Family Therapist is a professional who works with individuals, couples, or families to resolve conflicts and improve their relationships. A Marriage & Family Therapist helps to communicate, settle differences and solve problems within a couple or family unit.
How often do people see a Marriage and Family Therapist?
Many see a Marriage & Family Therapist for a short period of time. Some see a Marriage & Family Therapist for only a few sessions and others go for several months, depending on the relationship.
What are some signs that one should seek the help of a Marriage and Family Therapist?
Those who are dealing with any stressful situation in a relationship should seek a Marriage & Family Therapist. Some common issues a Marriage & Family Therapist can help with are: Anger, Blended Families, Infidelity, Infertility, Finances, Substance Abuse or Unemployment.
What is marriage and family therapy?
Therapists believe that all members of a family or group work together to influence the behavior of each individual. Therefore, in order to treat one, all members must be treated. This will serve to assist everyone involved at the same time, rather than focusing efforts on one person.
What are the benefits of using a Marriage and Family Therapist?

Read the introduction (in PDF)
"Judgment," writes Bernthal, "is the archetypal situation for Shakespeare, the one event that every human being will have to face, on one or both sides of the grave." Bernthal's study portrays a Shakespeare heavily indebted in his notions of judgmentand in the comic and dramatic uses to which he putsto the doctrines of Christian theology, both Catholic and Protestant. Bernthal also shows how the legal culture and trials of Shakespeare's time, including the famous trial of Sir Walter Raleigh, influenced Shakespeare's approach to the difficulties surrounding human judgmenthow to assess the truthfulness of testimony, determine the appropriate degree of punishment, and evaluate the justice of proposed remedies. Above all, Bernthal carefully attends to the ways in which Shakespeare probed the tension between justice and mercy in all its complexity.
"Written for the lay reader, provides a captivating synthesis of literary, historical, and legal scholarship."— ForeWord
"He relates in rich detail how plays both major and minor relate to two Elizabethan contexts: Christian theology and English legal tradition."— Sunday Times
"Bernthal's analyses, often accompanied with straightforward readings of the plays' narratives, are clear and informative. His analysis of The Tempest rescues that poor hijacked play from the hands of its anti-imperialist critics and opens up its manifold mysteries with genuine sensitivity and exquisite sense."— Faith & Reason

PROVO, Utah — He grew up in Ghana, goes by "Ziggy" and actually tried out for the Brigham Young University basketball team.
Yet the guy with a 39-inch vertical jump instead has been wreaking havoc on the football field for a BYU defense ranked fifth nationally and No. 1 against the run entering Saturday's game against No. 10 Oregon State (4-0).
And to think, Ezekiel Ansah didn't even know how to put on his pads three years ago.
"He had no idea," said Cougars center Braden Hansen. "Now the word I use to describe him is 'beast.'"
The senior actuarial major has been racking up the stats in just his third season playing football — ever. The American sports icons he followed before arriving in Provo at age 19 were NBA stars named Jordan, Kobe and LeBron, and his first team at BYU was the track team, where he clocked an impressive 21.9 seconds in the 200 meters.
"It's been a long journey and sometimes I sit back and don't know how this came about," said the 6-foot-6, 270-pound defensive end/linebacker. "I appreciate my teammates, and the motivation I get from everybody keeps me on track."
The player who once had BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall scratching his head seemingly has only scratched the surface of his ability, though NFL scouts are taking a look at him along with linebacker Kyle Van Noy, a Lombardi and Nagurski Trophy watch list candidate and Ansah's roommate on the road.
In a 6-3 win last week over Utah State, Ansah had five tackles, three for loss, two sacks and two quarterback hurries. He announced his presence just two plays into the game against a running back fresh off a 260-yard rushing/receiving performance.
Ansah recognized a screen pass to Kerwynn Williams and slammed him to the ground for a loss. Williams would finish with 14 carries for 18 yards and five catches for 39. "I had to earn my respect," Ansah said of the play.
He certainly has earned it from teammates and coaches, especially Mendenhall, who was more than a bit surprised when Ansah showed up at his office unannounced in 2010 at the urging of friends.
"I was telling Bronco I want to try out for football," Ansah recalled, "and he looked at me like, 'What are you thinking?' He told me it was going to be really hard and if I'm ready, to go out there and do it.
"I think he tried (to discourage me), but it didn't work."
With that Ansah flashed a wide smile, one that has made him a favorite among his teammates. Actually, there are plenty of other reasons for his popularity, too.
"Because he's from Africa and talks with an accent and all he wants to talk about is soccer," said quarterback Riley Nelson, who is expected to start Saturday for BYU (4-2) after sitting out two games with a back injury.
What's funny, Nelson said, is that Ansah is so unassuming.
"He had no clue what he had as far as physical tools or ability," Nelson said. "Not only is he big and strong, but he's fast, too."
Nelson has calculated that for every two steps Ansah takes, he needs four to escape his rush.
"Now I've got quick steps," Nelson said, "but he's breathing down your neck in a hurry and if he catches you, look out."
Undefeated Oregon State certainly will be aware of Ansah, especially with junior backup Cody Vaz making his first collegiate start Saturday in place of Sean Mannion, who is out indefinitely because of a left knee injury suffered in last week's 19-6 victory over Washington State (a team BYU beat 30-6 in the season opener).
The 6-foot-1, 198-pound Vaz played in five games in the 2010 season, completing six of 17 passes for 48 yards. He has not taken a snap for the Beavers since.
Now Vaz faces a BYU team ranked first in the nation in rushing defense (59.5 yards) and red-zone conversions (40 percent), third in scoring defense (8.8 points), tied for third in tackles for loss (50), tied for sixth in sacks (20) and fifth overall (229.3 yards a game). BYU's defense also has kept opposing offenses from scoring a touchdown for 13 consecutive quarters and has held its past dozen opponents to under 300 yards of offense.

Recent FIS NewsBelow you will find a listing of recent FIS News Find your newsSki Jumping finals traditionally in Planica Every year the Bauhaus FIS Ski Jumping World Cup season final takes place on the huge hill in Planica. Ski Flying in Slovenia has always been something special with a tremendous following at the event and the Letalnica was long the world's largest hill. The largest hill of the world may now be in Vikersund, Norway, yet Planica has not lost any of its excitement, even now it's all about long flights in the springtime in the southern Alps. And it's still about victory in the Ski Flying World Cup. There is also a lot to celebrate during the upcoming weekend: Adam Malysz will make the last World Cup jumps of his long career and the Pole will do his best to achieve his 40th victory in one of the two individual competitions. Thousands of Polish fans will be there to bid him a worthy farewell - with Adam Malysz a true legend will leave the ski jumping scene. The popularity of Malysz is further demonstrated by the fact that his farewell party in Zakopane that will take place on the last weekend in March was sold out within two days. The organizers expect up to 80'000 fans there. In Planica, the fans will also celebrate the Slovenian medalists from Oslo 2011. Because of a great jump by Robert Kranjec, the athletes led by head coach Matjaz Zupan won bronze in the team competition on the legendary Holmenkollen large hill. Kranjec is always one of the favorites in Planica and the bronze medal is likely to provide him extra motivation, as it was the first Ski Jumping medal for Slovenia at World Championships since 2005. In the Ski Flying rankings, with Gregor Schlierenzauer (325 points), Martin Koch (301 points) and Thomas Morgenstern (262 points), three Austrians are leading although Simon Ammann (256 points) and Malysz (255 points) too have a realistic chance at winning this prestigious title. In Planica, a reconstruction of the hill is planned and new records may be possible again after the reconstruction in 2014, according to Janez Gorisek, one of the planners of the hill, who spoke at a press conference in Klagenfurt. The Slovenians are careful with the reconstruction and put a high priority on safety of the hill. Contributed by Horst Nilgen |

Wet winter weather increases icy road risk
13 November 2012
Hampshire road users are being reminded to take extra care this winter as the saturated ground means that water runoff from fields makes it more likely that rural roads will ice over during cold weather.
According to the Met Office, this summer has officially been the wettest in one hundred years and there appears to be no let up in rain as winter approaches. The Environment Agency has recently released a warning that, following further wet weather in September and October, rivers are full and the ground is saturated, with the result that current groundwater levels in some areas are extremely high and water is seeping onto Hampshire's roads. Roads that would normally dry quickly after precipitation are more likely to remain wet and ice over when the road surface temperature drops below zero.
Councillor Mel Kendal, Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Hampshire County Council said:
"Road users need to take extra care this winter because, due to the saturated ground, even a small amount of rain or snow means that roads are more likely to experience water running on to them which can easily ice over when the temperature freezes. We have recently experienced our first frosts of the winter and our salting teams have been out treating Hampshire's main routes but, although temperatures may rise slightly in the days to come, drivers still need to take care as some roads may be covered with deep puddles.
"Hampshire County Council takes road safety extremely seriously and invests heavily to maintain and improve the 5,000 plus miles of road in the county. Keeping Hampshire Moving is a priority of the Council - the road network is a vital support for our regional economy and people need to be safe when going about their day-to-day business, whatever the weather. We have a long-term strategic programme of road maintenance and enhancement, Operation Resilience, which aims to make our roads more resilient to the damaging effects of weather extremes and increasing traffic levels, as well as to improve the overall condition of the roads."

After all, there is no bad weather, just bad clothing choices.
It looks like Gribble and her family will be bundling up again this weekend when they head up to Wisconsin. It's going to be in the 20s. She hopes there'll be a lot of snow, and Charlie will get a chance to finally jump on that sled.
