This is live cam recording of a nest of bald eagles- their 3 little ones just hatched! I have been watching and following for 3 years- it is just wonderful.

Yes it has gone down but it is still number 8 in murder rates of cities with 500000 or more people. Detroit is number one like I mentioned. Chicago is right up there as well. murder So I give you credit you did lots of research. I really am not going to spend that much time to find data to keep this going. I applaud you for all of your research. I am glad you enjoyed. You did not change my mind in any way but I am all for someone who can intelligently argue with me on a matter.

I love watching fencing at the Olympics-- it looks like dancing! But you can tell that their brains are moving SO quickly to try to figure out where to go next, I imagine it must be really intense!

Thanks AnneGG, I didn't even know there were things out there to help manage passwords. I found this article on USAToday and thought I would share. Y'all may already know all this but I didn't have a clue

Naw she mentioned (assuming a female) the Woodlands area... I live in the Woodlands area and while I'll agree the mom's are snotty and will fight over a whole lot of nothing, I've never thought that they were so psychotic that they would whip out a gun and start shooting. It's primarily cat fights... these women would never dirty their hands, they'd hire out.
On another observation about the area, while most America is overweight it seems like there is a much much lower percentage of heavy people in the Woodlands... tennis and golf outfits are worn everywhere, and yes there is a golf cart line at the school to pick up their children.

Always travel by local trains and buses so lots of great small places whose names I can't remember!
India, Jaipur, Kuchaman. Want to go to Kerala! Taj Mahal is one if those places which is as fantastic as it is supposed to be!
Thailand, away from tourist, Kao Tao used to be magical but has been "discovered", I like the north, Ayutthaya, Chang Mai, down round Petchuburri, Kanchanaburri. Not over keen on Bangkok. Go up the River Kwai to the Burma border, sleep in a raft hotel!
Vietnam - liked Hanoi until I was knocked down by a motorbike ( but, hey, insurance company flew me home business class!), Sapa is worth visitng. Helong Bay, Mekong Delta.
cambodia and Laos, can't say as due to go there and then had aforesaid accident!
Malaysia, like Kuala Lumpur. Preferred Borneo to Malay Peninsula, loved Penang. Danum Forest - excellent!! Wild orang utans. Kinabatangan river, elephants, crocodiles, range if monkeys!
China and Tibet. Going next April!
