After a while, our body heat will keep the bed warm, but it can a chilly experience until you get to that point. I am going to walk you through how to make a bed warmer that you just pop in the microwave for a few minutes before you put it on your bed. No need to have an expensive electric blanket or mattress pad heating up your whole bed when this can do the job for cheaper.
You can alter the measurements of the bed warmer to make a hot/cold pad to put on injuries.

Larry Millett: "All houses are precious vessels filled with history, and in the case of mansions the stories of their owners tend to be especially fascinating, if only because they are founded on the twin American obsessions of money and status. Mansions are validations to the world of their owners' success, and in the beginning dreams pour into them like summer sunlight. Sometimes the dream holds and sometimes, it fades, and when mansions come down memories always float like airy fugitives amid the dust and debris.

According to the Kanabec County Times
The feasibility study for the Kanabec Broadband Initiative is a go, after they received word from the Blandin Foundation that they will supply matching grant funds.
According to Beth Thorp, Moras Community Development Planner, on Jan. 31 the broadband initiative had $27,500 committed in matching funds from local sources, including a $15,000 grant from the Initiative Foundation.
While the Blandin grant would give the broadband initiative $55,000, it would still leave them short of their $80,000 goal.
They are still waiting to hear on a $10,000 AgStar grant.
KanabecCounty has been working with the Blandin Foundation, through broadband consultant Bill Coleman for several months now assessing and building broadband interest with the leaders.

Research studies have shown that people perceive their stress levels to be quite varied. On a scale of one to ten, respondents run the full range for what they believe their stress levels to be. Sadly most people see themselves in the higher ranges rather than the lower ones. Why is there such a wide variation and more importantly, why is it that most people perceive their stress levels to be high? Is it the economy? The world situation? Life in general? We really have no way of comparing the stresses of life today with 100 or 200 years ago.

Blake and I made a day-trip to Rainy Lake yesterday, doing a complete about face and traveling north 100+ miles after going 100+ miles to the south (Mille Lacs) on the day before. I always say it's better to do a little traveling to the good bites than to stick around home and bang your head against the wall, trying to catch a few good ones. We teamed up with Jeremy Taschuk, pictured with a nice 28"er that was caught on a Northland Tackle Live Forage "Rippin Shad", Mindy Taschuk, their son "Bren", Tim Snider, and Tom Batiuk.

Back she goes. Go back to grow up to 30" or more!

Tom Batiuk with a "throwback". Nice looking fish!

Jer' with a dinker. He did well by using Northland Tackle's new Live Forage "Rippin Shad". These baits will be going to Lake Winnipeg with us.

Tim Snider with one of several small fish that were caught. Forty feet was the magic depth.

Tom with a little one. You never know if it's going to be a 12" walleye or a 30"er. Tom, who does a lot of bass fishing on Rainy Lake said he caught 27 walleyes that were 10 pounds or better, last summer while bass fishing. Wow! Count me in!

Mindy Taschuk with yet another walleye. She had the hot hand and caught quite a few fish but couldn't beat her husband's 28"er. Her hot bait was a glow "segmented" body Genz Bug tipped with a whole minnow.

Blake chipped in with a few nice ones.

A beautifully colored pressure ridge. There were plenty of them.
Blog: Monday 2/20/2012 08:26 AM
Pressure ridges sort of had us "hemmed in" and kept us from doing any exploring but it doesn't look like we needed to.
Blog: Monday 2/20/2012 08:23 AM
Jeremy and Mindy Taschuk display a couple small ones. I like "that look" Mindy has. Funny.
Blog: Monday 2/20/2012 08:21 AM
A few of the "eaters" that were kept. All fish appear to be real healthy and not lacking for food.
Blog: Monday 2/20/2012 08:18 AM
Tim caught and released this nice northern pike, which really put up a good battle on light tackle in 40' of water. I'll tell you, that Rainy Lake is one heck of a fishery and I'll soon be back!

Thought for the day: Is it possible that America's 20th century strength (and the backbone of our success here in northern Minnesota's steel and timber empire) was the nation's forward-thinking and at times complete domination of the energy industry? Now that oil is becoming less reliable and plentiful as a commodity, we are struggling. Thus, can we even consider turning the clock back or is a new direction necessary to preserve America's standing? These questions are inspired by a post at AlterNet, "Why Going 'Back to Normal' is no longer an option for American economy -- and where we're headed now." The most interesting idea I found therein was the concept that, in history, the societies that dominate energy resources become dominant.

ST. PAUL - I'm back for another session, and excited is an
understatement for how I feel. OK, maybe a bit overwhelmed and
nervous, too, but excited nonetheless.

There is no simple approach to building aStrong Town. There are no one or two universal ideas that, if implemented, will change the trajectory of America's cities, towns and neighborhoods. This is hard work. For a city to get there, current priorities need to be realigned and everyone -- from the mayor, the city engineer, the maintenance worker and everyone in between -- needs to be working to get more value out of our existing investments.
As a finale to the series we've been running that began witha simple comparisonof the tax base from two nearby blocks -- one developed in the traditional pattern and one in the suburban -- I am going to share what I would advise a city's mayor to say in response.
