Hope for locals with ADD

by BuddhAllahrist on February 10, 2006

These two articles showcase how ADD can be an asset to incredible success rather than a liability. The key is to work in nontraditional ways, and not to get bogged down in normal jobs that don’t take advantage of ADD characteristics.

The two articles are 151 positive attributes of ADD and top 10 advantages of ADD in high tech careers. I hope they stir hope in locals frustrated by how their ADD-driven behaviors are discouraged.

1 Find Humor in Life January 13, 2009 at 11:20 am: This is a topic I do not know much about but hear others refer to quite frequently. I’ve never heard it mentioned in the positive way, though, the author has shown with the included articles. I would like to know more about this since I occasionally work around individuals who have ADD/ADHD.

If you have ADD/ADHD, what would you like others to know about it? Do you think it is viewed with a negative, positive, or neutral attitude?

- boomer : I just looked up the urnainum enrichment process, and it doesn't involve using a reactor. It does have the hazards that accompany nuke stuff. The plant is to be constructed 18 miles out of I.F., but that could be straight west, or northwest or southwest. Lotsa desert out there.
- boomer : Hi, guest 4319.
- Guest_3070 : Another awesome article by Clarence - love them!
- Guest_2313 : Yeah...I never got much from it. It seems rather new, or rather bad. I would probably give them another chance in the future.
- Guest_2560 : grapevine is a cookie cutter site. Won't last.
- Guest_3070 : That sounds like a cookie cutter press release. How about some real words about the site? It looked empty, like a yahoo face page - did I miss something?
- guest : The Idaho Falls Grapevine is part of the Nationwide Network of Grapevine Communities. Seeing the need for a melting pot of new generation web 2.0 users, the Grapevine was born to address the needs of what is important within the community in which you live. The Grapevine Communities officially launched late January 2008 and quickly began popping up in cities throughout America. It quickly became apparent that users wanted more and in September of 2008 a new layout with new features were l
- Guest_3070 : grapevine site looks like one big advertisement, is it new?
- guest : Ever signed up for one of the free cycle sites? I'm a member of one, and I can't believe some of the things people ask for on there! I mean, you're getting it FREE people! So you expect to be given brand new items? Takes a lot of guts to go on there and ask for something in excellent condition or brand new. The people giving things away on there are doing so for your benefit, because they have extra. They aren't going out buying things just to give them away! Have you ever stopped to think t

- Guest_1218 : Hello!
- Guest_3070 : Wow, there goes the spam again all over the Q&A section, maybe it's time to reconsider that idea?
- Guest_3070 : 1095 - catch up on your facts, I think you mean the proposed Areva plant?«link» .idahofallstoday .com/2008/03/02/ does-idaho-falls -want-areva/
- boomer : guest 1095- there IS NO REACTOR by Reed's Dairy, and there never has been one by Reed's Dairy. Time to get your meds checked again.
- Guest_2486 : whats a skueaky cheasy curd? Is that like buffalo jerky...indigeno us to the mtn west region?
- slats : There is a reactor that close to Reed's? that is news to me and I live close enough to poke the cows with a stick.
- Guest_1095 : g2g c yall l8tr....
- Guest_1095 : how would you like it if all the Reeds Dairy cows became radiated??? that would mean no more skueaky cheasy curds, or no rocky road ice cream...:0
- Guest_1095 : fine then... what if the fish, like the bonnavile cutthrout, were to become endangered??????

- Guest_1095 : think of eating a fish with two heads...
- Guest_2627 : Will it make them bigger and lunkier? That's not so bad.
- Guest_1095 : we r going to lose our fishing privileges because all the fish are going to be all mutants and radiated!!!!!
- Guest_1095 : lol
- Guest_1095 : i live not 2 miles from there, i don,t want to die from radiation poisoning... do u?

- veles2003 :
- Joe Eagle : Thank you to those of you who are starting to write articles for the community!
- Joe Eagle : Ok, been busy swamped and got a cold, so I'm a little behind on a few things. There are a few pending articles and I'll be publishing those in the next day or two. Sorry for the delay, but we're getting back on track.
- Guest_3070 : Keep on tookin.....see you in a few years....
- Guest_4197 : I use to come on here all the time and it was really lively. The I tooken a break, come back -- and its dead!
- Guest_4197 : This site has really died since I use to visit it
- Guest_2486 : it's kinda scary how many cases like this go unsolved each year.
- Guest_2840 : 2 years? 20 years?
- Guest_2840 : when did this happen?
- Guest_3070 : Correction, I meant to say they found her dead awhile later but didn’t make any arrests in the case.
- Guest_2486 : lol
- Guest_1074 : Tooken?
- Casey Hill : Did anyone get up to Targhee for their 33" Sunday. Now that has to be a religous experiance with missing church and all.
- SlackerrTheClown : Whoop Whoop Juggalo 4 life!
- Guest_3070 : Very old case. Still haven't found her. I guess you'd have to call Pocatello Police and speak to detectives if you want more info.
- Guest_4478 : hey does anyone have any updates on the the girl named cindy bringhurst of pocatello id who was tooken at highland ave????
- Olegang :
- Guest_2486 : hey now!
- Guest_3070 : 2486 has a connection to everyone - even you! :0)
- Guest_41 :
- Guest_41 : what's your connection with them?
- Guest_2486 : 10 people from a Baptist church in Boise sit in a jail in Haiti accused of child trafficking. Evidently they had kids with them that weren't even orphans. Doesn't look too good for them right now.
- Guest_2495 : comments awaiting moderation now? that is going to kill the spontaneous conversational aspect of this site, bad decision to do that IMHO
- Guest_252 : What's up with the "your comment is awaiting moderation" on certain posts, does ANYONE EVER get to them? Nothing should be triggering these that I can see.
- Guest_2486 : Have a great weekend everyone!
- Guest_2486 : It would have been a great day today to play hookey to hit the slopes! Hopefully tomorrow will be this nice.
- Guest_2627 : Yesterday or today would have been great to be at Targhee. Much warmer than it is in I.F. with the inversion. Hope tomorrow is still good. Y'all have a great weekend too!

- Guest_4872 : I heard form a friend who works in TV that the cell phone companies are the one's leading the campagin to end free TV.
- Guest_3070 : Wow, Kimball Mason being parolled in May. Think we should roll out the red carpet..?
- Guest_2486 : I agree completely. I just have some cheap rabbit ears and all of my channels come in perfect. It prob doesn't hurt that I live on the 3rd floor either but they do the job.
- Guest_2627 : Sat/cable are a ripoff especially for single people who aren't home all day. The 4 PBS channels are very nice since the digital switch. What kind of antenna do you use? Indoor, rooftop or what?
- Guest_2486 : That's all I have (free tv) 13 channels and they all come in crystal clear. Even the HD shows come in better then when I had cable or satellite. I think it'll suck to lose those 4 pbs channels but i wont go out and pay for sat/cable again if they do.
- Guest_2627 : TV programming is getting too expensive & service sucks. I'm thinking of going back to free TV. It wouldn't surprise me if satellite and cable company lobbyists are behind the IPTV cutback idea. They want to kill all free TV.
- Guest_2486 : New poll idea: Do you agree with Gov.Otter's decision to trim the state budget by doing away with Idaho Public Television? A. Yes, nobody watches PBS anymore. B. No, a lot of people rely on free tv and PBS offers quality programming. C. No, there are better ways to trim the budget. D. Yes, but allow them to sell advertising in order to stay on the air. E. Undecided
- Guest_2486 : What is it with the teachers in this state? Every couple of months you hear about a teacher sexually abusing their students. crazy sh!t! «link»

- Snapper of Towels : Thanks 375...I deleted the spam I saw. Let me know if I missed anything
- Guest_375 : spam spam and more spam in the classifieds again...
- Guest_4067 : That's crazy! Bet there's a lot of people there today.
- Guest_2627 : At 6 a.m. today GT was reporting 33" of new snow in the past 24 hours.
- Guest_2627 : Sorry, I was worn out and crashed early last night. Snow was light and fluffy and smooth like butter. Have fun if you go today. I'll head up again Monday.
- Guest_2486 : Wow....that came out of left field.
- Guest_3764 : he decided early on that he would not let anything that was a physical challenge to him stand in the way of performing to entertain people as God gifted him with music; he could see in his mind the actual lyrics; he would just start humming and making noises and grab a paper and sometime later it was on the top ten. After his head caught on fire; he decided he was going to keep on going despite painful skin graphs and healing and excruciating pain and headaches and he also founded a burn hospit
- Guest_3764 : MJ was my friend since he was 24. He was the humblest and kindest person I have ever met. In his life he suffered from his abusive and stern Father; whom he cared for, even though he abused MJ. He loved people; the children he cared for; were hooked up to I.V.'s and alot of them undergoing chem; they asked him to stay with them because to them he was like Peter Pan. He suffered for over twenty-five years from Vitiligo and Lupus. Vitiligo makes your skin loose pigment and if its over 60% of
- Guest_3764 : I don't know if my answer or response can help you with alleviating your frustration; perhaps it may do the opposite.
- Guest_2486 : How was the actual snow 2627? Light n fluffy or wet and heavy?
- Guest_2486 : I noticed that too! I'm definitely looking forward to heading up there tomorrow!
- Guest_2627 : Sunday I mean.
- Guest_2627 : It snowed 16" during the day at Grand Targhee today. And still snowing when I left. On top of 6" overnight last night. Some of you might want to rethink the half day thing and go all day.
- Guest_2486 : It's amazing rescuers are still finding people alive in the rubble in Haiti.
