Chore Buster

Chore Buster - Web-based scheduling application for families. Easily manage the chores that no one really wants to do. Log in, add people and chores, specify how difficult or dislikeable a task is and how often it needs to be done. Chore Buster then generates a fairly distributed schedule that can be sent out in a weekly email or printed to be stuck on the fridge or bulletin board.  (Initially found on Emily Chang's eHub.)

    A Word to the Wise about "Taking the Bait" from the Media

    Remember, be cautious about what you see and hear; particularly things are alarmist and/or reactionary.  Listen to a variety of sources. Be grounded in your faith and understanding.  Consider strategies that are available to you.  Well-intended reactions may cause undue interest, misdirection and lend unwarranted legitimacy to groups who want attention and easy rewards.
