My house is an absolute mess!! Where do I start?Posted by crazycatlady75 to ADHD Adults on Sep 11, 2013 at 8:29pm | 25 Comments
Forgive me if this has been posted before, but I'm new here and need some advice. I am a married mother of two and my house is an absolute mess. We all know that starting and finishing tasks are difficult for us. Can anybody give me some guidance as to how to proceed? I can't think of anything specific but I guess I could start with de-cluttering. I know it sounds like I'm asking a lot but some step by step instructions would be most helpful. Thanks in advance.
There are people out there who are professional organzers…who are extremely good at helping people with de-cluttering, labeling, creating an easy system for family members to follow to keep things organized. They help you decide what is appropriate for you to keep, to give away, what paperwork you need to save…they have various tips and systems to help with shopping, laundry, etc.
Having someone from outside the situation come up with some suggestions/solutions makes it easier for everyone in the family to accept…no one is singled out for blame.
Organization comes easy to some people. Let them bring their skills to you…they have seen all kinds of messy places, and have worked with families to make the home area more enjoyable for every family member.
It's a great question and one which needs to come up over and over. I am not going to suggest step by step but rather a quiding principle or two with examples. Doing a whole house or even a whole room can be daunting. It's best to do a little piece at a time. One room, one desk, even one desk drawer. First you have to dump everything in a pile and then decide on one thing at a time. Slowly is best at first.
Example: a clothes closet
Take everything out and lay it on the bed. Make the closet totally empty and then clean it. Picking up one thing at a time decide to keep it or toss it. If it's to be tossed have containers ready to receive this stuff to be tossed. Then make sure you toss it.
You can use this pattern with each unit of space, a kitchen shelf, a bookshelf, the kids' toy box etc. The kitchen whatever junk drawer, the odd sock box etc.
I suggest that you do not organize as you go because you can become lost in the woods of developing systems. Just clean, and keep or toss.
With ADHD it is much too easy to imagine a whole host of systems. Better to wear blinders and focus on it piece by piece.
Will it stay done? Nope. But it will be easier each time.
An ADHD Coach can help with this. http://www.additudemag.com/adhd/article/4002.html
Your question reminded me of a few maxims, general thoughts, that I have printed and hanging on my wall:
-Getting started is the hardest part.
-What I don't do today will not go away. It will just be that much harder tomorrow.
-If you're having trouble getting started, then the first step is too big.
I made a mistake, the correct URL is flylady.net
This is one of the most common things that my ADD clients come to me for help with—if they're comfortable enough to be honest about it up front! It's a very, very common struggle for those of us with ADD brains, and something it took me a long time to get on top of myself! Its often a "dirty little secret" that many of us feel like we need to hide—so kudos to you for wanting to tackle it out in the open!
Flylady has wonderful princples that are very ADD-friendly (aren't we all side-tracked home executives by definition?!) although many of my ADD clients get overwhelmed by the influx of reminders. Her principals were a Godsend to me many years ago, and I've incorporated many of them into my life (personally and professionally).
De-cuttering is an important first-step. I always tell my clients, "Physical clutter begets mental clutter!" Start small, and where it will make the most difference. Is there somewhere in your home or office that makes you feel more clear and peaceful when it's clear? For many of us, it's a kitchen counter or table, or our desks. Pick just that one place, and start there. If that's still overwhelming, pick one small part of that place and start doing little bit for just a few minutes, several times a day. If that's still overwhelming, break it down even further!
Add some interest if you can—up-tempo music can help, and play a game with yourself (racing a timer, seeing how many things you can take care of in a certain number of minutes, and so on). One of the gifts of ADD is creativity—so use it in finding ways to add interest to otherwise mundane stuff!
Once you get that area de-cluttered, start working on creating a habit of clearing it at least daily. Use whatever reminders work for you until it becomes a true habit (it may take more than a month, and you may need to switch up reminders as you get used to them)
Habit and routine are very powerful tools in managing many of our ADD challenges. Habit and routine can take the "thinking" and the "getting started" struggles out of so many of the things that are a challenge for us (usually the mundane stuff that other people make look so easy!). It's all about getting your own head out of your way!
I hope there's something in my ramblings that helps! Keep us posted, and best of luck!

I have the same problem. I have a fear that DCFS will show up at the house and see it in disarray so I stay out of the house and go to the library where everything is neat and organized and my kids can play with their toys and we can read books. I cannot afford a professional organizer or those various bins they tell you to buy. I also have a to do list that is over three pages long! I know how you can feel so overwhelmed especially if you have kids. It is funny that DCFS thinks that kids do not mess up the house and want to take them away when they show up unexpectedly and your house is messy. They obviously have never had children. My kids can mess up a clean house in two minutes flat and it takes 8 hours to clean it up.
Professional organizers cost a ton of money. I can go to a friend's house & organize, but mine seems too daunting. Why can't I find someone local who needs the same thing I do who can exchange helping each other. It's a no brainer, but how do you find them?
Simple…it's called FLYLADY.NET!! She helps a lot of women going through the same difficulties as you. She calls CHAOS "Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome." She teaches people that if you just do a little bit at a time while not getting GUNG HO trying to accomplish too much at one time, you can actually get more done then you think. It just takes time and patience. Over time, that cluttered home of yours will actually be much cleaner. Granted, it won't be perfect, but the "perfectionist" thought process is what she calls "stinkin thinkin." It causes us to obsess thinking we need to get as much done now and as fast as we can in a certain time frame, making it a 3 hour chore. In the end, though, you wind up getting exhausted and never want to see that chore again due to the "sensory overload." She describes all the ADD symptoms, but does not put a lable on it. I was able to "read between the lines" to find out that she is Catholic, since I myself am Catholic. Again, she does not lable herself as such, but describes it as such. She has been down the same road with a messy house…a house full of clutter (she calls them hot spots). When she was finally able to "help herself" and clear her hot spots and all that clutter around her, she was able to help others do the same. She reminds us that if we cannot love ourselves then we can not possibly love anything or anyone around us…even our homes!
Anyway, just type in Flylady.net and it will come up on the google search. Her background color is "purple." Get it?? Just like they put colors on cancers like Ovarian Cancer being teal, the memory disorders like ADD/ADHD and Alzheimer's or Dementia are purple. Reading between the lines, it is obvious that she knows about ADD/ADHD and probably is aware that even she has ADD/ADHD. However, instead of labeling it as such since most of our lives we have been labeled as something…whether it be "spacey", "selfish", and even worse, "stupid", she does not lable us as anything of the sort. She only positive words…uplifting words come through her site. She tells us about the negative comments that come through, but that is because we do not see them. Only herself and her "flyteam" see the negative comments and sometimes she will bring them up if she feels the need to.
Not sure where you live, but sign up for Groupon. They always have cleaning people and businesses offering specials. Review your expenses, I bet you could cut out something easily to have someone come once a week for 2 hours to clean. Good Luck!!
flylady is great for ADD sufferers. I learned how to do thinks from the site that most people just "pick up" because they can pay attention easier than I can. For example - exactly how to clean the kitchen sink - each and every step, what tool, what products, what technique. Spelled out. She tells me how much time things should take and how to know when my time is up.
Welcome to my World. My small apartment sometimes can look like there has been a earthquake .
This is a thing that works for me: every week I have a cleaning day, for example sunday. That day I wash all clothes, vacuuming, sorting, important papers, etc.
I also have a special box for my important papers and invoices.
Sorry for my crappy English, im from sweden :p
I have talked about the things I have been able to overcome but the constant chaos in my Mobile home is beyond my abilities.
I try to do the little at a time thing and I am so out of breath and worn out I just don't get very far then get behind on what I can do because of it. By the time I feel good enough to go at another part of the mess the one I cleaned up is a mess again. If I start vacuuming I start dripping sweat from the top of my head. I have to put a sweat band on my head so it doesn't drip into my eyes, & completely change my cloths after because they are soaking wet.
This is not just my add but the Dr says all my blood work is fine. I am on disability and have tried to get outside help but they say I am fine, other people need it more & the waiting list is to long. I agree, I do look fine. That happens outside too so it isn't environmental to the house. Just thinking about it makes me want to go back to bed.
When that happens I usually force myself to stand up and take a step. Usually that gets me doing something even if it isn't cleaning the house.
When I talk about this I get depressed so I usually don't. I talk about the things I CAN do & DO do! That makes me smile & feel good.
missmix48, your doctor says that all the blood work came back normal??? What you describe does not seem normal to me. I definitely would say that it is not all having to do with the ADD. If you get easily exhausted by doing little things at a time and in your MOBILE HOME none-the-less, then there is definitely something wrong here. Maybe you should have more tests done? Maybe having blood work is not enough?? Just my thoughts from a medical assistants point of view. I am not a doctor, but just form the basic knowledge of medicine that I have from becoming a registered medical assistant, something just does not seem right here to be that exhausted. I assume goign by your name missmix48 that you are 48-years-old. If I am right, you are still somewhat young. At least, you should not be that exhausted during the day unless you have depression or are simply not "healthy" such as being overweight or having a medical condition. Anyway, you should definitely seek a second opinion, especially since you say that the "little things" that you are able to do make you SMILE and gives you a good feeling inside. Does not sound like depression is an issue, just getting easily exhausted often. Good luck and hope you feel better
big classic problem, simple solution that works. start with 5 min rounds, time it. then stop, then come back, same.
your problem is your brain seeing this as hugely, complex big house job. its freaking out.
non adhd brains see the house room by room. promise it 5 mins and see how u progress.
I'm in the same boat. Both of my kids are ADHD, as well as myself, so I can't really enlist their help, and my poor boyfriend already has his hands full (obviously) so I can't ask him to do more than he already does.
Why does it seem that every solution offered requires paying someone to organize or paying a life coach? I'm not sure how so many people afflicted with ADD/ADHD have a surplus of money, as it seems to affect most of us in the job department as well.
I try to pick the area that is causing me the most stress and just knock it out until it's good enough for the time being.
Your post made me smile, because I was just looking at the morning rush mess, and decided to go online instead…lol Fly Lady was a great help to me years ago. I got her book Messies No More. I didn't even know what ADD was when I got the book. Over the years I actually became very organized to compensate. It feels like I can't think straight when there is a mess. I actually start feeling emotional when things are out of place. For myself, the best idea I got from Messies No More was the advice to put the boxes or bags in a room and sort things in the room that I start with. The bags/boxes kept me from leaving the room and getting distracted on to something else. I also discovered that binders help me immensely. I bought (matching binders, all white for uniformity) and labeled them. They are in my kitchen cabinet near the phone. I have one for Sports, School, Church, Dog, Gardening, Receipts (I do receipts by month in clear inserts, easier to find if I need to return something). I file graded homework, flyers…right away. Paper clutter bugs me the most, so this method makes me feel so much. If my husband asks for the soccer schedule, I say "check the sports binder". I also have all my bulk items, beans, grains, seeds…in glass canning jars with white lids. They are lined up for easy visual. Though it is not the best use of space, I don't put items behind each other in the cupboard. if I can't see it, it doesn't get used, it piles up…things get shoved and not taken care of. I am not even OCD, I just found that organization helps me think clearer. My son benefits from this with his own Attention challenges. Basically the only toys we have ever bought (outside of sports equip) is Legos. My sons Legos are sorted by color. It's great because kids that come in his room for first time, ooh and awe. I just wish my hubby would let me at his home office. His office is so cluttered (pack rat) that I literally have to keep the door closed or else I feel coo coo for coco puffs.
If you lived near me, Central Valley CA, I would come over and help you get started. That would be fun to me.
Mommyluv if only I lived near you what a blessing it would be if you could come over to my house! I bought a book for my puter kindle called Friendly ways to organize your life. LOL I looked at my mess this morning and sat down at the puter but forgot to read the book. lol I give up. I feed the critters and talked to someone about hauling off a car that is sitting rusting in the yard. Goody $ to pay a bill tomorrow. Also going to rescue a cat at the shelter tomorrow sometime. I don't use regular cat litter and he needs someone who doesn't use regular cat litter because he is allergic.
I use chicken mash also called crumbles. It scoops like scoopable litter but I don't think it stinks as quickly and it won't turn to concrete in kitties tummy if they lick it off their feet. Not to mention it doesn't cost as much per pound.
Then went out and cut some wood for a couple hours and hauled it to a shed. I burn wood for heat all winter here in WI.
Tonight I was going to start a beading project but by the time I organized some of my beads while I was deciding what colors to use I was to tired and confused to start it. Welcome to my world. Oh right, it's your world too. It's so nice to have someone to talk to about OUR world.
Wow missmix, you rock! I am impressed with your resourcefulness, and earth friendly approach to daily tasks. Be sure to be impressed with yourself as well.Lucky Kitty.
I find that if I write down what needs to be done for the day, I feel more in control. I use it as a touch stone to come back to when I get off track.
This sounds silly, but yesterday I got new picture frames. I got frustrated deciding how to line them up. Thankfully my friend happen to drop by and helped me eye things. Its funny how at times simple little things can totally put my mind bouncing back and forth like a ping pong game. Yet, in big situations, I tend to get hyper focused and see things very clear. Sometimes I think being Amish looks very inviting. No, I am sure I would be like "hey, what page are we on?"
Boy, I sure can relate to the house thing!!!! Where DO you start? Esp if we need help? And cannot afford to hire people. When I was CT an organizer wanted $100 per hour. Well that was a bust, because I do not have that kind of dough!!! I will keep reading. I know I will and you WILL get through this!!!
Can totally relate to the disaster in the house. I am going to try FLYLADY too. I also wish somehow there was a way to find people nearby that are in the same problem. But is that dirty little secret. I just shared it with my pastor,. I wanted to die. I have been to some of the houses but they are all neat as a pin.. I always say, Where is everythg, where do they put all their stuff. I found used book on AMAzon that was ADD and clutter but am no at home am in library. So if I can find it I will post. I was the only book I found helpful. I started in a corner in the kitchen on the counter. Can only work on somethg for a little while . My room I am scared to start but have to. Good luck with yrs
I sure can relate to this! My house looks like a tornado went through it once and turned around and went back through it again!! I haven't had a friend over in years too ashamed. I go and meet people anywhere and everywhere but never invite them to my house. I have no idea where to start and it keeps getting worse. I get so depressed looking at it that I just leave so I will feel better for a little while anyway. I have to do something about this mess soon. I will check into FLYLADY too. I wish there was some sort of local support group for this.
hi, tinalunior83 I so apreciate you thinking I am 48 but I was born in '48. lol that makes me 65. I wish some of you would check out my post about artists & crafter's and add a word or two. I did go to the fly-lady site. I was inundated with advertisements and couldn't make heads or tails of that place so I came back here. I found the name of a book someplace (can't remember now where) and downloaded it. lol Haven't read it though! Yesterday I found a home for three rabbits and adopted a Cat and a dog. I am 1up! lol
Today I keep wanting to make something and just can't seem to jump start my creative bone. Too many ideas roaming around in my head to catch one. urrrh
John, I did as you said, I emptied my whole closet yep all of it. And donated a bunch of stuff (they say if you haven't worn it in 1-2 years then you never will) so I tossed it, another pile of junk to the trash can, hung up everything that was hangable (new word) and the most important thing I did was to buy totes, filled those babies with blankets, pillows, out of season clothes, things I couldn't part with, magazines, shoes hahaha list goes on and on.
Buy totes or storage containers (4 bucks walmart) and like John said empty that closet and clean it.
No wonder my house was never perfect, I didn't own any totes. In your kitchen food closet use small totes to hold cereal boxes or any food boxes you can just pull out the tote and dig through it without messing up your shelves.
I decided every room of the house should have some kind of tote in it for storage. I'll buy one tote a week or every other week and fill it. I can't buy 20 totes at once because then it becomes work and I'll store all of them downstairs and dread everytime I walk by those empty totes, so one tote here or there is your best bet to organize. Just trying to help the maddness
All my totes are clear so I can see whats inside without having to read the label or take the lid off, or worse yet pull it out of the center of a tall stack.
you'd be surprised how much more stuff you can fit on a shelf with smaller totes.
Im excited cuz I'm the only 46 year old that just discovered the power of storage containers totes

Former TSA chief says airport security is broken
WASHINGTON – Kip Hawley, the former head of the Transportation Security Administration, says airport security is broken and should be fixed.
Hawley, who headed the agency from 2005 to 2009, contends that TSA became too rigid after its creation a decade ago and blanketed airline passenger with too much unnecessary screening.
Instead, Hawley said Thursday, the agency should focus more on high-risk threats that could cause a catastrophe.
For example, he said, knives no longer pose a threat because cockpit doors on airline planes are hardened and locked. So the list of prohibited items should drop to guns, bombs and toxicants, he said.
He also would encourage airlines to drop baggage fees in exchange for lower government taxes so that fewer bags are carried on.
"The amount of time we spend fishing through bags and pulling out prohibited items is a waste," said Hawley, who is promoting his book, Permanent Emergency: Inside the TSA and the Fight for the Future of American Security, and spoke at George Washington University's Homeland Security Policy Institute.
Instead, Hawley said, the TSA should monitor passenger behavior for threats and reward officers who take initiative to find threats. He would encourage more random security checks.
He said the TSA should "act now to make some major changes" to avoid the routine criticism of the agency and resistance to security measures such as routine patdowns.
Hardly a week goes by without complaints from passengers about the screening, many of which go viral on the Internet. Among the latest:
•Rep. Francisco Canseco, R-Texas, complained that a TSA officer patted him down so aggressively last week in San Antonio that it hurt, so he pushed the officer's hand away. After sorting out the dispute, law enforcement officers didn't file charges against either man.
•A 4-year-old girl became hysterical during an airport patdown April 15 in Wichita that her mother criticized TSA in a Facebook post as treating her like a terrorist. TSA defended its officers and said they explained why the child needed additional screening.
"We live in a world where TSA is in a permanent emergency," Hawley says.
John Pistole, the current TSA chief and a former top official in the FBI, has been focusing more attention on the riskiest travelers. During the past year, the agency has reduced patdowns for children and the elderly, provided faster screening at some airports for passengers who provide more information about themselves and let uniformed pilots skirt regular screening lines at some airports.
TSA officials also have maintained that additional screening is sometimes needed and that random checks still occur, such as the one for Canseco.
"TSA is focused on providing the most effective security in the most efficient manner, while ensuring the freedom of movement of people and goods," said Sterling Payne, an agency spokeswoman, who added that the agency has "the utmost respect" for Hawley.
"The agency is moving away from one-size-fits-all screening to progress toward improving both security and the passenger experience," Payne said.
For his part, Hawley said Pistole is a good leader for the agency and he hopes he serves the remainder of his 10-year tenure.

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Joliet Area/South Suburban Alumnae Chapter, will celebrate the sorority's 100 years of service on June 1 by performing 100 acts of Kindness In Service through Sisterhood.
Instead of communities focusing on the weekly murder count, the Deltas want to focus on counting acts of kindness and service, according to a news release.
Acts of service will be performed in 22 communities.
The day will start at 9 a.m. at Martin Luther King Elementary School, 14601 Seeley, Dixmoor, with a pep rally, greetings from local officials, and a moment of silence to remember the sorority's 22 founders.
Sorority members then will visit 22 police and fire departments to thank them for their protection, service and dedication.

"Hindsight" Group Show @ V1 Gallery, CopenhagenPhotography // Friday, January 10, 2014
This is a fun little show from the curators of V1 Gallery, where they sent out a message to a bunch of artists they have shown over the years, including Barry McGee, Tim Barber, Ray Potes, Ed Templeton, Art Marcopoulos, and more, and asked them to submit one piece of art, in an edition of 1 + 1AP, that reflects the current state of the individual artists position right now. That show has become "Hindsight," and opens on January 17, 2014.
Ari Marcopoulos for Jay Z's "Magna Carta Holy Grail"Music // Wednesday, July 03, 2013
We aren't even sure what a Magna Carta Holy Grail is supposed to be, but it sounds like its competing with whatever a Yeezus is. If you have a Samsung Galaxy, maybe you are preparing for your July 4, 12:01am listening session with Jay Z's new LP of both religious and democratic implication (and for the record, we got thrones, yeezuses, Magna Cartas, and Indiana Jones over the past 18 months from Jay and West), but for the rest of us, we have to wait for the 9th of July. In the meantime, we can verify that indeed, street, skate and fashion photpgrapher Ari Marcopoulos has shot some of the imagery for Jay's album.
In L.A.: Aaron Rose's Fire Sale @ Known GalleryJuxtapoz // Monday, July 09, 2012
This past weekend we stopped by Known Gallery to check out Aaron Rose's Fire Sale. When Rose moved to Los Angeles from NYC in 2001, the Beautiful Losers curator left a "big black box of 1990?s memories" in storage space in Glendale. Now he is having a gallery style fire sale. Photos and more after the jump…

Loving this photo of Ari Marcopoulos' that is one his show flyer for Here And Now at V1 Gallery in Copenhagen, Denmark. And just as Ari wanted, this new exhibition features works only from the, wait for it, here and now. As V1 writes of the famed photographer, "In Here and Now he (Ari) wanted to just show his work from 2012, and most of the prints, as can be seen from the date stamp in the lower-right hand corners, are from March this year."
Ari Marcopoulos: Abandoned Sleep @ Ratio 3 San FranciscoJuxtapoz // Wednesday, September 14, 2011

Rizzoli and the Swiss publisher Nieves are set to release Ari Marcopoulos: Directory, a monumental limited edition phone-book-sized volume of photographs featuring 1200 of Marcopoulos' most recent images. Each copy includes a print signed by Ari Marcopoulos. See how big this book is after the jump . . .
Ari Marcopoulos at Galerie Frank Elbaz in ParisJuxtapoz // Friday, January 07, 2011
Ari Marcopoulos will be showing in Paris at Galerie Frank Elbaz opening tomorrow night, January 8th, with a show titled This Week. The concept of the show seems simple enough: candid shots, snap shots, and more day-in-the-life type photography. And because it is Ari Marcopoulos, the photos tend to be interesting regardless of intent or style. Images after the jump . . .
Conversation with Ari Marcopoulos x Barry McGee x Keith Hufnagel x Fab 5 FreddyJuxtapoz // Thursday, October 29, 2009
Photographer Ari Marcopoulos, artist Barry McGee, Keith Hufnagel of HUF SF, and hip-hop pioneer/historian/former graffiti artist Fred Brathwaite aka Fab 5 Freddy will be subjects of a program at the Berkeley Art Museum on November 8th, 2009. Looks like our purveyors of culture are getting intellectual with a stimulating conversation.
Ari Marcopoulos at Galleria Patricia ArmocidaJuxtapoz // Monday, February 25, 2008
Galleria Patricia Armocida is proud to announce the opening of Always and Never, the first solo exhibition in Italy by Ari Marcopoulos, on March 4th. For this occasion, Ari Marcopoulos, who is considered one of the most important and respected American photographers of recent generations, will present medium and large format works, including seven never-before-seen photographs and the video Dressage, which was recently shown at MC Kunst in Los Angeles. Marcopoulos' work is often talked about in the context of his engagement with subcultures (skateboarding, art, music.) Now, nondescript skies and unpopulated landscapes counter the action of extreme sports, the stage, or the street, for which he is most known. Take a look at more of Ari Marcopoulos' work at his website.

Wal-Mart Is Still Looking Good
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Shares of Wal-Mart (WMT) are up about 10% so far this year.
That's not a shabby increase, and it makes me think that Wal-Mart investors aren't buying in to concerns that the recent increase in the Social Security payroll tax will dent the retailer's sales.
The company's solid fourth-quarter earnings report also shows that Wal-Mart should do just fine.
Granted, improved consumer spending is always important for Wal-Mart. But the immense size of this company serves as protection, and shares are not going to sway that drastically from one quarter to the next. For that matter, the stock looks fairly priced at the moment. But that's not to say more gains are not on the way.
Solid Fourth-Quarter ResultsAs is often the case, there were very few surprises in Wal-Mart's earnings results. The company doesn't deviate much from what was expected. Fourth-quarter revenue increased 3.9% to $127.1 billion. This was slightly less than consensus estimates and marked much slower growth than Target's (TGT) 7% increase in revenue. Earnings arrived better than expected at $1.67 per share, up 11% year over year -- helped by a much favorable tax rate. Likewise, comps grew 1%. This is the metric that tracks the sales performance of stores opened at least one year. It's not a robust number, but it bested Target's 0.4% comps, which were down from a year earlier.
Wal-Mart's foot traffic declined 0.1%, but that was still better than Target's 1% decline. And Wal-Mart was able to offset this with a 1.1% increase in average transactions. Perhaps most interesting, the company said that the 1% comp growth in the U.S. helped the company gain market share in several categories, including food, health & wellness/OTC, entertainment and toys. We can speculate from whom Wal-Mart stole share in the quarter. Toys R Us comes to mind, as does Best Buy (BBY), which has had its own struggles of late. Although Best Buy recently beat earnings and revenue estimates, there was very little to suggest that Best Buy is winning in the entertainment category after squeaking out just 0.2% revenue growth in its fourth quarter.

Absolutely brilliant song, nobody can stop it to be in top 5 ranks. Very catchy song and will get hooked in mind of listeners.
Really a beautiful song, will be at top 5 surely, oh just can't get enough of Adam's Voice and that guitar! The video also manages to convey its meaning
17Must Get Out
The awesome one! Best maroon 5 slow song ever...
It kills me when he sings " This is not good bye she said, it's just time for me rest my head"..
Its just so attached to my love, the girl who ditched me is always the same, Maroon defines in their songs..
Way to go Maroons, and thanks to you Adam for your such god gifted heart drilling voice...

Words cannot express how much I adore this song! Goodness. The chorus just killed it. My itunes count says that I've played this for 46 times haha This city's made us crazy and we must get out. I love their slow songs but this one's the best
All the Songs About Jane Songs should be in the top 10, but this is by far their greatest song ever. Newer songs like Moves Like Jagger and Payphone don't capture the same emotion as Must Get Out.
[Newest]I think that this song is amazing and so catchy! I love this one.
18Just a Feeling
This song is too underrated (it doesn't even have it's own music video, and maroon 5 don't sing this in their concerts) But it's the best song for me, with all the emotion placed into this song. Definitely should be in the top 10.
Totally enjoyed this song! My kinda music. And Adam's voice
Now this song, is just beautiful. I'm really surprised that it isn't in the Top 10. The lyrics are incredible and great overall feel. A really great song from Hands All Over.
[Newest]The best song on this album
19If I Never See Your Face Again
Rihanna and Maroon 5 melded very well on this song.
The chorus is great, and the bass makes me dance.

You got me so high and then you dropped me! Love that song. It's not that popular but we could make it. Such a cool up beat sound and rare to find in the radio. Really awesome!
[Newest]<3 Definitely a motivator, you just wanna dance to this!
Are you guys serious? This is by far the most compelling and heart-breaking song in their history. Simple and sweetwuth that grit,
Under appreciated just the lines at the opening immediately start to tell a story set up videos in your head the music is good and of course Levine sings it to perfection. His good taste always keeps the song from going too far.
Love it
Love it
This is definitely a song that is really unappreciated. This is one of Marron 5's best songs period should really be up there.
[Newest]One of the best song so far
STUTTER IS THE GREATEST SONG I'VE EVER HEARD... ^_^ ITS JUST SO SWEET... I LOVE you ADAM... Your VOICE IS SO UNIQUE... I LOVE you A LOOT... SERIOUSLY, WHY don't you GUYS MAKE A VIDEO FOR THIS SONG? I AM EAGERLY WAITING FOR THE VIDEO RELEASE OF THE INSANELY AWESOME SONG... :D

[Newest]Reminds me of my crush
23Beautiful Goodbye
This song should at least be in the top 20. Beautiful song.
Are you guys kidding me? Oh! C'mmon this song deserve to be on top... Best song from M5
Maroon 5 got me by this one! I think it deserves on the top ten list. It is indeed super cool and heart whelming song of them! So great!
[Newest]At least it should be in the top 10. it's has a very deep lyrics
24Nothing Lasts Forever
This song should be in top 10. My most favorite besides payphone
After I broke up with my long distance realtionship, this song make me feel so alive. The music, the lyric. I'm feeling alive
This, the best ever song Maroon 5. ^_^
25Sweetest Goodbye
The way Adam sings this song is so brilliant, it touches you suddenly after all the creepy songs randomly selected by your winamp..
This should be on top 10, less pop, but an intense song, vocals and the guitar are awesomely correlated
You've to watch their in fryday 13th when they're sing this lovely song. Its make me wanna cry to think it.
26Give a Little More
Like the "rive" of this song. It really gets you up and moving. Adam Levine's voice is superb on this vocal.
This music is amazing. Maybe one of their best music. But the their best video music/ music is she will be loved of course. Moves like jagger is good too. I saw their perfomance on Rock in Rio Lisboa yesterday, it was their first time in Portugal and the concert was amazing.
This song is a total eargasm! First song in forever that just really makes me want to dance. Misery is a close 2nd. Most of the better ones are ranked near the bottom.
27Wipe Your Eyes
I was crying when I was listening to this song, and I was yelling, "Hey, Adam! I'm crying! I thought you'd wipe my eyes or somethin'! " Kidding aside, OH MY GOD PLEASE VOTE FOR THIS SONG. This is like, the best Maroon 5 song I've ever listened to. Such relatable lyrics, and the melody is sick. Vote up! Wipe Your Eyes for the win. M/
For the Sake Of Jesus Listen it and vote for it! It Should be there in the top 10! Please Listen and Vote 4 This Song! "Hey You, come on Let me Embrace You" So Catchy Lines I LOVE IT
One of the best maroon 5 songs of all time. Outstanding melody with palpable lyrics. Wipe tears from my eyes.
[Newest]It's amazing. This song. When I first heard it at Aeropostale freaked, trying to find the title. Every time I listen to it I want to cry and smile at the same time. This song is, no doubt, undeniably perfect.
28Goodnight Goodnight
Good song, quite well written lyrics, and of course, the tune makes it one of the better Maroon 5 songs... Maybe not the best, but definitely in the top 5.
Very sorrowful song especially if you've seen the music video. You can get the message, "Choose carefully in making relationships"
Well, it is really popular here in this country
[Newest]A song that brings good feeling
Love Adam's voice in this song, the slow rhythm makes me crazy whenever I listen to this and the guitar has been used beautifully.
Underrated. That's all I want to say, but I have to put in more to have minimum number of words met.
What?! This needs to being the top 15 at least! It's a very good song, trust me, once you listen to it, you'll love it.
[Newest]Surprised this song is not in the top ten. I think it's one of their best songs, love it!
30Through With You
This song is so real to me. Makes me think a lot about myself in relationships and how hard it must be sometimes to be with me.
So deep and dark. These is how all Maroon 5 songs should look like.
Great song! It's understandable why it's in 41st place, though.
32Better That We Break
Weird connection, the first time I heard this song I was in Ingles, as soon as I heard it I knew it was Maroon 5, Maroon 5 rocks!
This is the best song about letting go the person you love for everyone'e goodness! Here's some inspiring lines from the song:
I'm not fine, I'm in pain

39Not Falling Apart
One of the best Maroon 5 song's, I can't believe it's not even on the list here! It's a really good song and Adam for a change sings in a deep voice. The lyrics have a ton of meaning, and it is so good.
I love the chorus. It's really powerful:
"And now I can't walk, I can't talk anymore since you walked out the door. And now I'm stuck, living out that night again, I'm not falling apart".
I love, love, love, love, LOVE it.
Good song for hardcore Maroon 5 fans

How come it is in 49th place. This should in the top 10.
Good, song if you like a fast chorus but slow melody.
40Hands All Over
Really underrated song... It has a really unique vibe to it that is really upbeat and lively. People are talking about Maroon 5 selling out to pop, but this song is really proof that they still have their own individuality and quirkiness.
Best maroon5 song how is this 34 this should be 1 and is definitely the coolest and strongest song
Great song, off their last album before they completely sold out
41Not Coming Home
Oh no.. I love this song too! But I wonder why No Curtain Call doesn't feature on this list...

[Newest]Awesome song! Should be way up in the list!
It's definitely good. Try to listen to it.
Amazing listen to this song youll love it so much its so awesome and the best maroon 5 song. IT IS GOD
43The Way I Was
This really should've been left on the original track listing for "It Won't Be Soon Before Long." The music itself is fantastic; I love how the band just jams out at the end, and it's a good song to sing along with. A very, very, very underrated song.
44Until You're Over Me
Such a good song, has really good lyrics and I like it. It's kinda sad though too, but still great Maroon 5 stuff
45The Air That I Breathe
I can't believe how this song didn't make the top 10. It's one of their most beautiful songs; it perfectly describes how relationships end because people don't realize how much the other person means to them until it is too late. Take a look a these lyrics, "I figured what it is all about.
It's you that I could never live without.
Your everything,
The air that I breathe.
Stupid not to know it all along,
And everything I ever did was wrong.
Sadly it's too late for sorry. "
These lyrics combined with the song's melancholic tune thoroughly illustrates how people realize too late that they can't live without another person. It really brings out the saying "you don't know what you have until it's gone"
It's you that I could never live without.

I love this song but awesome and inspiration for my live thank's
46No Curtain Call
"No Curtain Call" is extremely epic... It's the type of thing you'd hear in a movie. It's really great. It's definitely one of my favorite Maroon 5 songs because it's so different from their usual stuff. It's really great. I mean, I like listening to songs where they can have multiple meanings like this one, it's so creative and I love listening to it.
Its one of the most unique songs I've ever heard by maroon5.. It's not something I would have expected of them it's REALLY good. It gives adam the opportunity to show how great his voice can sound.
I love Maroon 5 so much...but No Curtain Call is my favorite song by them. It sounds like the group did back in 2002, but still has that touch of modern. If you get what I'm saying.
I like TicketS. Just thinking that It should be higher
I love this song. Should be MUCH higher.
Amazing song, should be in top 5

1968 Shelby GT350 Barn Find Recovered After 30 years
While we don't know how much the seller wants for this GT350, we can't imagine he'll let it go for cheap. The car may not as desirable as the 1967 Shelby GT500 found in Death Valley or the 1965 GT350 that sold at Barrett-Jackson earlier this year, but very valuable nonetheless.
You can see the 1968 Shelby GT350 barn find in detail in the gallery below.

Postcard Takes 69 Years To Reach Its Destination
By editor
Originally published on Mon November 26, 2012 12:35 pm
Good morning. I'm Linda Wertheimer. The postcard begins: Dear Pauline and Theresa, we arrived safe. But the news was out of date. Sent from Rockford, Illinois, the card took 69 years to reach Elmira, New York. Pauline and Theresa's parents went to visit brother George at a military camp. They're all dead now, but another family with two girls lives at the Elmira address, and the card has become a seventh grade history project. It's MORNING EDITION.

- Conference date: 10–14 June 2012
- Location: Ischia, Italy
Blends of Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) with two Poly-Lactic Acid (PLA) in different proportions (90/10 and 70/30) were utilized in order to produce biodegradable and biocompatible scaffolds for soft tissue engineering applications. The scaffolds were produced via thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) starting from ternary systems where dioxane was the solvent and water the non-solvent. Morphology was evaluated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (average pore size and interconnection). Moreover a DSC analysis was carried out on the as-obtained scaffold in order to obtain information about theirs thermal properties (enthalpy of melt and crystallization). The results showed that is possible to prepare scaffolds of PLLA/PLA via TIPS. Moreover, the PLA seems to influences the TIPS process in terms of demixing temperatures. The data confirm that the morphology and the mechanical properties of the scaffold can be tuned, starting from PLLA blends and using PLA with different molecular weights.

Bomber Takes Truth to Grave
By Kelly Patricia O'Meara
Stephen Jones, the lead trial attorney for
Timothy McVeigh, writes in the newly updated version of his 1998 book,
Others Unknown: The Oklahoma City Bombing Case and Conspiracy, that "the
real story of the bombing as the McVeigh defense pursued it is complex,
shadowy and sinister. It stretches, weblike, from America's heartland to the
nation's capital, the Far East, Europe and the Middle East, and much of it
remains a mystery."
Jones continues in the tones of a conspiratorial whisper: "There may be
reasons why this is so, but perhaps the most important has been the U.S.
government. And, in the end, the Oklahoma City bombing conspiracy may not
merely be the crime itself but also the systematic, deliberate attempt of
our federal government to prevent all of us from finding out what exactly
happened on that terrible April morning."
Conspiracy theories from trial lawyers whose clients have been convicted of
unfathomable crimes are familiar stuff. But that's the story from the trial
attorney for the man who is scheduled to be executed for his part in this
nation's worst mass murder and he's sticking to it. Jones, perhaps better
than any other, knows more about this crime that didn't make it into the
trial, or even the press. And there are others, many others, who believe the
whole truth has not been told.
Not the least of these is a host of respected journalists from mainstream
media who have spent years pursuing the same leads as McVeigh's defense
team, dogging the men and places that seemed to show up on their radar
screens again and again: Places such as Elohim City, a fortress of alleged
paramilitary radicals on the border between Arkansas and Oklahoma. Names
such as Louis Beam, former grand dragon of the Texas Ku Klux Klan and author
of the anarchist treatise, The Leaderless Resistance; Kirk Lyons, founder of
the Cause Foundation and a long-standing member of the Aryan Nation; David
Hollaway, former legal assistant to Lyons and a member of the Christian
Identity movement; Dennis Mahon, a former Klansman and head of White Aryan
Resistance (WAR) in Oklahoma City; and Andreas (Andi) Strassmeir, chief of
security at Elohim City and a close friend of Mahon.
Now, however, for reasons unknown, the investigative reporters and editors
who followed all this are refusing even to discuss their investigations of
the bombing and the possible conspirators they so tirelessly tracked.
Then there are the nearly 200 relatives of the bombing victims who not only
believe there is much more to the story, but that some agents of the federal
government had prior knowledge or even warning of the bombing. In fact,
questions about what the government may have known are so important to these
families that in March 1997 survivors and relatives of the victims filed
notice of a federal tort claim against several federal agencies, detailing a
variety of potential allegations.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), the U.S. Marshal's
Service, the Federal Protection Service, the General Services Administration
and the FBI are among the agencies given notice that the survivors/families
intend to raise serious questions about how much the federal government
knew, or should have known, about the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred
P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City.
Four years after formal notice was filed, the government has not responded,
leaving the door open for the survivors and relatives of the victims to
proceed with their lawsuit.
According to the attorney representing the families, this is a negligence
action and, most likely, they will claim that the government had enough
knowledge and information that federal buildings in Oklahoma City were
likely targets on the day of the bombing that extra precautions could and
should have been taken. Richard Bieder of the Bridgeport, Conn., law firm of
Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder, is the lead attorney collecting information on
the claim. He has zeroed in on many of the same shadowy figures tagged
earlier by the McVeigh defense team as it sought to determine whether
representatives of the federal government, through operatives or even paid
informants, had knowledge the bombing was being planned.
"We're looking," Bieder explains, "for information that will allow us to
bring this suit. There is a lot of speculation and rumor, but the original
link - the first hint of prior knowledge - is that there were many who
reported seeing people in uniform just prior to the bombing. There also is
the information about Elohim City, Andreas Strassmeir and government
informant Carol Howe. Howe's statements don't provide us with a clear-cut
case of prior knowledge - nothing that we can bring suit with - but we're
still collecting evidence, still looking at information."
An attorney representing potential claimants in another aspect of the
Oklahoma City bombing also raises the names of those being referred to as
the "usual suspects." Even relatives of the victims - those with nagging
questions about facts surrounding the bombing - are well-versed in the
alleged connections of the reportedly suspected conspirators and their
alleged relationships to McVeigh.
Take for instance Cathy Wilburn. She and her late husband, Glenn, were among
the first to question the official version of events and sign on to the tort
claim. Their daughter, Edye Stowe, lost two children in the bombing - Chase,
age 3, and Colton, age 2. In the aftermath, very early on, they began
learning of oddities and anomalies between what officially was being said
and what witnesses said had occurred.
"It was during a meeting at my home of the families who lost children at the
day-care center," Wilburn recalls, "that one of the mothers told us she had
seen the Oklahoma County Bomb Squad downtown that morning before the
bombing. My husband didn't believe she could be right, so he went down to
the sheriff's office and questioned them about it. They said, `Absolutely
not,' that the bomb squad had not been downtown that morning. Then, little
by little, articles would come out in the newspaper about other people who
also had seen the bomb squad. It was about two or three months later that
the sheriff's department changed its story, and said, `Oh, it's our mistake.
Our guy was downtown running errands, and he stopped to get a cup of
Wilburn says it "just seemed odd that they would go out on an errand and
hook up the bomb-disposal-unit trailer to get coffee."
Another bothersome issue for the Wilburns was the apparent amnesia of
law-enforcement officials with whom they spoke about the significance of
April 19. It didn't take long for the families touched by the crisis to
learn that people and organizations under suspicion took that date very
Wilburn tells Insight, "When several law-enforcement officials told us that
they didn't know about the importance of April 19, my husband rattled off
the events. He said April 19, 1775, was `the shot heard around the world';
April 19, 1942, the Nazis celebrated the burning of the Warsaw Ghetto; April
19, 1985, was the day the FBI raided the compound of the Covenant, the Sword
and the Arm of the Lord (CSA); April 19, 1992, was the original aborted raid
on Randy Weaver's cabin at Ruby Ridge, Idaho; and April 19, 1993, was the
day Mount Carmel was burned to the ground by the ATF at Waco, Texas."
That date is, in short, a kind of mantra for people such as McVeigh and his
paramilitary comrades. Those following loose ends of the bombing case say
April 19, 1995, was important for another reason, perhaps more directly
connected to the bombing than any of the rest. Just hours after the bombing
of the Murrah Building, Arkansas prison officials prepared for that
afternoon's execution of Richard Wayne Snell, a member of the domestic
terrorist organization known as The Order, which was founded out of the
Aryan Nation in Idaho. According to court records, Snell conceived the plan
to blow up the Murrah Building in 1983. Some investigators think it is not
coincidental that McVeigh carried out the bombing in much the same manner as
plotted by Snell 12 years earlier.
According to an inside source who asked not to be identified, "The bombing
of the Murrah Building was to avenge the execution of Richard Wayne Snell.
McVeigh was seen at Elohim City and would have been well aware of Snell's
upcoming execution on April 19, 1995." In fact, Rev. Robert Millar, the
patriarch of Elohim City, the remote 1,000-acre paramilitary compound, was
with Snell in his prison cell on the morning of the bombing watching TV as
the Murrah Building crumbled. Later, Snell's body was taken by Millar back
to Elohim City for burial. Snell had been a codefendant with Louis Beam in
the 1988 Sedition Trial held at Fort Smith, Arkansas, where the [Snell]
bombing plot of the Murrah Building was first exposed.
This gets more bizarre. Wilburn also is up to speed on the executed Snell
and tells Insight that "just the fact that you've got the building targeted
by Snell prior to 1995 and then his execution is on the same day should tell
you something. But then his body is taken back to Elohim City for burial.
And all along ATF informant Carol Howe is telling her government contact
that they're planning to blow up buildings. Connect the dots: There are too
many coincidences. I can take one or two, but come on."
How does this support the alleged government prior knowledge? A 500-page
report on the bombing will be released within the month that reportedly will
reveal the government had not one but two paid informants inside these
tangential groups with advance knowledge of the bombing. The report is the
result of a two-year investigation conducted by a committee headed by
Charles Key, a former Oklahoma state representative and longtime critic of
the official investigation conducted by the federal government.
According to "Trail of Terror: McVeigh, Nichols Did Not Act Alone," an
article by Jon Doughery for World NetDaily.com, the Key committee report
will reveal "volumes of evidence citing inconsistencies and omissions in the
government's official version of events." Doughery says it will document
"that two of the government's own informants" had warned federal officials
of "possible terrorist attacks in the United States," but that neither of
these witnesses was allowed to testify in the federal trials.
Howe, according to records filed with the federal district court in Denver,
was one of the paid informants for the ATF, living off and on for many
months at Elohim City. But she was prohibited from testifying at the McVeigh
trial, long a sore point for McVeigh's defense team. Although trial judge
Richard Matsch learned the ATF had confirmed that Howe reported to it
monthly, he refused to allow the federal informant to testify in court about
her knowledge of the bombing, deciding her testimony was "not sufficiently
relevant to be admissible." For months, according to evidence presented to
Matsch, Howe had reported to her ATF case officer that plans to blow up
federal buildings were being discussed by members of the Aryan Republican
Army (ARA). Many of them lived in or visited Elohim City, including Andi
For nearly a year leading up to the bombing of the Murrah Building,
according to the informant's notes released by the ATF, Howe filed more than
70 reports with the ATF. Directly after the bombing she was sent back into
Elohim City to obtain additional information about ARA members.
Strassmeir, a German national illegally residing in the United States at
Elohim City, long has been at the top of the list of suspected
coconspirators put forward by those investigating the Oklahoma City bombing.
Given his background, there are many who wonder how the government let him
slip away. Strassmeir's father, Gunther, was German chancellor Helmut Kohl's
secretary of state. But more importantly according to Mahon, a close friend
at Elohim City, the young Strassmeir was a member of the GSG-9, Germany's
elite counterterrorism unit. Despite ATF informant Howe's reports about the
presence and activities of Strassmeir, according to court records, federal
investigators did not interview him until nearly a year-and-a-half after the
bombing, when he safely had returned to Germany.
And, according to the inside source who spoke with Insight on condition of
anonymity, "It is most likely Strassmeir was operating out of Elohim City as
a shared asset of the German/American governments to penetrate neo-Nazi
groups living there. Otherwise, why would a man with a background of
privilege and wealth, and trained in counterterrorism, choose to live under
such primitive conditions unless he was working undercover?"
There also is evidence - in the form of records related to two prepaid
calling cards reportedly belonging to McVeigh - that his last two telephone
calls before the bombing were to Strassmeir at Elohim City and to Hollaway,
a partner with Lyons in the Cause Foundation, a radical legal organization.
Hollaway has said in interviews that he is friends with Strassmeir and that
he helped him leave the country several months after the bombing. Insight
has obtained documents confirming that Lyons was Strassmeir's attorney and
as such advised the young German to leave the country lest he be a "material
witness" in the bombing trial. Given the relationship between Strassmeir,
Hollaway and Lyons, who also was Beam's attorney in the 1988 Sedition Trial,
and that McVeigh's last calls were to these people, investigators and family
members wonder why the government didn't interview Strassmeir until a
year-and-a-half after the bombing. The government never interviewed Hollaway,
Beam or Lyons.
The list of discrepancies turned up within the government investigation of
the bombing of the Murrah Building is a long one. Many believe that when
McVeigh is executed on May 16 much of the truth about what was behind the
bombing will die with him. What is clear, however, is that most of those
following this case closely are convinced that the full truth about this
terrible crime has yet to be told and, for reasons yet to be confirmed, the
government has not been completely forthcoming about its knowledge of
related events leading up to the bombing.
Trial attorney Jones sums up what many who independently have investigated
this case say they believe: "All of us lost - all Americans - because a
government theory full of holes carried the day. Because the `others
unknown' who helped [McVeigh] plan and execute the bombing are still out
there. Because the whole tragedy might have been averted but wasn't. And
because, until we know what really happened, we can't hope to prevent other
similar tragedies perhaps carried out by some of the very people who helped

Speaker says to 'remember fallen veterans always'
Tuesday, May 27, 2014
Parents and spouses of whose who lost their lives in military service continue to grieve, said Anderson. As citizens, it's important to be there for these families, and remember the fallen veterans always, not just on Memorial Day.
"No one can replace these fallen heroes, especially in the eyes of the family," said Anderson. "But we can still offer a shoulder to cry on."
Near the end of Monday's ceremony, Spaulding High School JROTC raised the flag after members of VFW placed wreaths at the veterans and POW memorials. The Spaulding High School marching band played the national anthem.
