Seasonal Sales Associate Interview
I applied online. The process took 3 days – interviewed at Kohl's.
Group interview. Took turns answering the same questions. Everyone just tried one upping each other. It didn't seem like a serious interview, more like just getting to know everyone. Awkward at first, especially if you're uncomfortable talking in front of others.

It was a group interview. The hiring manager took the three of us in and asked each of us in turn different questions relevant to our personal experience. She had to duck out for a moment to attend to a situation in the store, leaving the three of us applicants to chat, but other than that the entire interview went without a hitch.Interview Questions

I applied online and two weeks later they called me for an interview. It was a group interview of 6 and I believe 4 out of 6 were hired. The questions were all pretty basic.. and two days later I received an offer.
*you must consent to drug test*
Interview Questions: Do you agree with the statement "the customer is always right?" How do you feel about being late to work and/or is it acceptable? Tell me about a time you worked for a stressful job and what did you do to help? Have you ever had an employee not follow the rules and if so what did you do to stop it? ... i'm not sure what the others were but I know one was like what do you do to keep structure in the workplace.Interview Questions

I applied online – interviewed at Kohl's in November 2014.Interview Details
Applied online about 2 months before kohl's contacted me for an interview. Set up an interview time, thought it was going to be one on one but it was a group interview with 7 other people. I was the only one dressed professionally, which I thought was odd. The interviewer asked all of us to fill out an availability form, then she checked them and went around the table were we had to talk about our retail experience. 2 of the people had to leave because they weren't over 18, felt bad for them because on the online application it stated that you had to be over 18 to apply so they should have been flagged from the start. After we said our experience the interviewer talked about the next step, basically we had to wait on an email to consent to a background check and whatnot. And that we were all hired if we passed. However I did not think the job would be minimum wage since it was seasonal, and usually seasonal jobs pay somewhat well. So I was disappointed about the rate, and that there would be no overtime whatsoever. The interview process was somewhat quick. As soon as you walked in though you were basically forced to open a kohls charge before you were brought back to the interview room.Interview Questions

I applied Online. Then I called about several different times leaving a message for their Manager (my name, and contact number). About a month after applying HR called to schedule an interview. I wasn't sure if the interview was open or closed until I got there. The Interview was Open. We had two managers sit in one being the store and another being one of the assistant mangers who worked customer service. I was in a group of about 7 other people. Before the interview began they gave us information about their hiring process( they would email us the job offer with several forms attached for us to fill out, also are pay grade and if we were hired how our hours would be). Each manger asked a question and then called on each party to answer it. The questions were along the lines of what is your past experience, why do you want this job, name a time when...etc?. This was easy because it allowed me to expand on someone else's answer and compare it to my own before answering. After the interview immediately I got the E-mail. Within a week they scheduled me for orientation.Interview Questions

Seasonal Sales Associate InterviewApplication Details
I applied online – interviewed at Kohl's in November 2014.Interview Details
First we had to fill out a basic job application. Then we had the group interview of about 7 people. We sat around a large table with the hiring manager who asked questions starting with a different person each time. It was a fun upbeat atmosphere. A couple of questions were about our personal Kohls experience- did we have a Kohls Card and did we have a Rewards Card. It seemed like he was trying to somewhat sell the people who didn't have a charge card on why they should get one. Other questions were I think trying to figure out our personality types - what type of tree would you be and why, for example. At the end he selected 2 of us to select team members from the group. Then each team had to "sell" something random from a group of objects on the table. Overall it wasn't a bad experience. There were several group interviews that day and I see the ad for positions at that particular store is still up, so I don't know how many people they need for one store, so it seems like they might be selecting maybe a few out the groups.Interview Questions

It is a group interview, so the interviewer asks one question and goes around the room to ask the same question. He does not always choose the same person to ask first, so be prepared to answer first at least once.

Cool Cafeterias: The New Wave of School Lunch
If Dad loves beef but not the fat in the meat, serve lean flank steak. It has all the protein of the high-fat cuts typically used for a bistro-style "steak frites" dinner, and it's rich in iron, zinc, and several key B vitamins.

Vasse Felix Heytesbury Cabernet Sauvignon 2005
Cabernet Sauvignon from Margaret River, Australia
Winemaker's Notes
The 2005 Heytesbury is a beautiful, deep dark plum colour. The aroma is fragrant, with lifted blackcurrant and fresh subtle peppermint leaf with blueberries, violets, cocunut, cumin seeds and thyme which meld into the background with rich oak perfumes.
Critical Acclaim
Australian Wine Companion - "Tightly focused and structured; particularly fine but persistent tannins add much to the texture; blackcurrant and touches of French oak complete the picture of a high quality wine. Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz.
14.5% alc. Drink 2020 "
Wine Enthusiast - "Complex notes of earth, iodine and forest floor open this stunning wine from Western Australia. The palate is pure cassis, supported by refreshing acidity that lifts the lead pencil notes on the long, slightly warm finish. Soft tannins make it suitable for drinking now although a few years bottle age will only heighten its complexity. "
Vasse Felix Winery
Planted in 1967, Vasse Felix was the first vineyard to be established in the Margaret River wine region of Western Australia.
Family owned and operated by the Holmes a Court family, Vasse Felix is internationally recognized as a leading Margaret River winery, restaurant and cellar door and is found in the heart of Margaret River's famous sub-region, Willyabrup.
Long growing seasons, ancient soils and cooling sea breezes from the Southern and Indian Oceans provide the Vasse Felix vineyards with ideal viticultural conditions to craft consistent, elegant and complex wines with pronounced varietal character and aroma. View all Vasse Felix Wines
About Margaret RiverView a map of Margaret River wineries Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot. Other varieties that have found results are Chardonnay & Riesling.
About AustraliaLike the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip.

Wonderfully fragrant, with a lifted nose of black cherries, mulberries ...Jacob's Creek Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is deep crimson red with purple hues.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

A Must-have Shirt! -
By: kappa from west bloomfield, michigan
This wrinkle-free pinpoint stand-collar shirt was purchased for my daughter. She couldn't wait after receiving it to call and tell me it was just what she wanted - color, style, fit, quality, and comfort! She owns several of Orvis's artilces of clothing. I do so, too.
Just as I had hoped.. -

This blouse doesn't wrinkle, perfect fit. Open neck invites necklace. Lovely long cuffs. Collar sits up if worn under a sweater. Very pleased!
Stunning -
By: memsahib from London
An absolutely perfect smart shirt in beautiful cotton. The fit is excellent . I chose the grape colour and it looks stunning with a pair of black trousers
Beautiful Blouse -

The green color is really beautiful, the blouse washes up well and is very stylish. It is fitted so I ordered a size larger, as I prefer a roomier fit.

Favorite Shirt Ever! -

I have this shirt in white, blue and green and just ordered a second one in white. I love it and wear it all the time. The neck is perfect under all sweaters and jackets. Never travel without one of my white Orvis shirts.
Frustrated -
By: miscelainious from Sedona Arizona
I would buy this shirt and many other wrinkle free shirts that Orvis offers but it and nearly all of Orvis's shirt are NOT offered in a size two or four. I don't think I'm alone in being frustrated by this.
a stunning shirt -
By: maxi15 from london
the stand collar on this shirt and the open V neck make it very distinctive and classy. i have received nothing but compliments on it. the material is very fine and worn under a jacket it makes the outfit look really smart. I have worn it during the day and at night.
|Wrinkle-Resistant Pure Cotton from Orvis
All Cotton. No Wrinkles. No Dry Cleaning. No Joke.
Our Women's Wrinkle-Resistant Cotton Shirts offer all the superior comfort, softness, and good looks of cotton in a new wrinkle resistant that requires no ironing. Available in a wide range of colors, they are ideal for travel and every day. No more expensive laundry bills, morning wardrobe scrambles, or rumpled appearances at important business meetings. Our wrinkle-resistant cotton apparel always look pressed and ready to go right out of the dryer or laundry basket.
How We Do It
100% cotton that's wrinkle-resistant? We found the most innovative and effective treatment for creating wrinkle-resistant cotton fabric. And we use longer strands of cotton, for a smoother yarn, which in turn creates a less-easily creased fabric. We weave this superior fiber into a pinpoint oxford cloth, lightweight and comfortable year-round.
Because cotton holds 15% of its weight in water, and moves that moisture naturally to the outside of the garment, cotton feels cooler on hot days and is more comfortable next to the skin. This cotton also takes color extremely well, resulting in clean graphic patterns with punch that will stay bright throughout years of washings. When removed promptly from the dryer, they look freshly ironed.
The End Result?
Soft cotton apparel that won't wrinkle or shrink. Patterns that keep their colors. Shirts and pants that stay sharp looking through weeks of travel and re-packing. Fabrics that will save you hundreds of dollars in dry-cleaning costs without sacrificing style or comfort. Our Wrinkle-Resistant apparel is perfectly suited to the office, everyday errands, or travel. You'll always look cool and crisp, no matter what the day brings.

Adapting ceiling mount light to use with ceiling fan?
I've been searching for the longest time for a ceiling fan light kit for my dining area without finding anything I really like. Meantime, I keep finding ceiling-mount lights that I REALLY like and would love to use in the room. But, we're in the south where ceiling fans make a major difference in how much A/C you have to use - so I really need to have a ceiling fan in the room.
Then today, at LightingDirect.com, I came across a light that can be EITHER mounted directly to the ceiling or to a fan. It still isn't what I want but it made me think - why can't just about any light designed for mounting directly to the ceiling be adapted for mounting to a ceiling fan --- assuming the light isn't too heavy, doesn't have parts that would blow off from the breeze from the fan, AND you have a high enough ceiling?
No doubt there is some reason and I'm hoping some of you can explain just what it is that makes most ceiling mount lights inappropriate for mounting to a ceiling fan.
Maybe if I understood what to look for, I could find a ceiling mount light that I like that could be adapted to use on the fan.
My ceiling is high enough that I have a couple of feet of extra space to play with.
Thanks for any insight.
Here is a link that might be useful: example adaptable ceiling mount/ fan light
You can. It takes a little bit of tinkering, but if you have the space and the chandelier or light is not too heavy it is really simple to do.
Depending on the design of the light and distance from the blades it may move around in the wind.
It also requires the right type of light. A flushmount or a light with a big flat base will not work well. Most any chain hung light would work well.

No, no, not more limericks!!
A year-plus ago our dear Hortster
had no clue that he'd struck such a chordster
with folks in their yards
who soon became bards.
Number 150 was your rewardster!
I looked up "Limerick" in my dictionary. According to it, we are expounders of: 1) a nonsense poem of five anapestic lines, now often bawdy, usually with the rhyme scheme aabba, the first, second and fifth lines having three stresses, the third and fourth, two: the form was popularized by Edward Lear (Example: There was a young lady named Harris, / Whom nothing could ever embarrass / Till the bath salts one day / In the tub where she lay / Turned out to be plaster of Paris).
Seems to fit this group! (Most must be plastered).
For gardeners who favor haiku
There's a composting thread just for you.
Though these metrical manias
Can be spontaneous
You can use them to scoop up what's gnu.
I 'posted some foliage of Quercus,
And my neighbor said I was a jerkus.
Said he, "What a waste.
That stuff isn't chaste."
He's a clown that belongs in the circus.
I showed that clown up much, much later
When I tilled mucho 'post 'round my 'maters.
They grew so darned dense
They knocked over his fence.
Revenge feels so good on a hater.
He said, "I'll sue for all you are worth!"
I said, "'Post gave my plants too much girth."
So he tried it in court,
But the judge was a sport.
"Act of nature, as sure as my birth!"
In Oz there's a magical toad
Who deposits a golden, square load.
In just a short while
You can build a fine pile:
Just follow the yellow brick road.
In front of two hunters, an abyss
The bottom of which was a guess.
So they threw in a stump
From a pile, for the thump.
And soon things would be quite a mess.
They jumped when a rustle they heard
O'er the pile a goat came like a bird
And ran between fast
Like revving on gas
Then jumped in the hole (quite absurd).
Quite puzzled, they both would say, "Why?"
By the pile, soon a farmer came by.
"Seen my new goat?
He's gray of the coat."
"He jumped in that hole!" they replied.
Farmer Jim-Bob then froze like a bump.
"You hunters must think I'm a chump."
Said he, "Cannot be,
Pile's brush from a tree
And I had the goat chained to a stump."
I don't understand the hysteria
over cantaloupe rife with listeria.
I'll just put the rind
(all I can find)
in the pile with more greens like wisteria.
(I don't mean to make light--I know many people have died. I just couldn't get the rhymes out of my head)
Okay, I'll bite.
It's not a limeric, but it rhymes
Ode to Zucchini (In West Virginia)
I think that I shall never see
A thing so lovely as zucchini
Growing there in hills so round
Leafing out across the ground
First come the flowers, yellow and bright
They open by day, they close at night
We wait and wait, the fruitâÂÂs almost ready,
First one, then two, then fifteen, then twenty!
WeâÂÂll chop them up, tender and sweet,
And sauté them with squirrel meat
WeâÂÂll grate them and bake them and make chocolate chip zucchini bars,
And then weâÂÂll sneak the extras into unsuspecting neighborsâ cars
WeâÂÂll go to the beach to have some fun
When we get back theyâÂÂll be gargantuan
So into the compost theyâÂÂll be dropped
To feed the soil for next yearâÂÂs crops.

hot banana
My two hot banana are looking fairly healthy. A few peppers on each. I don't want to cut just one or two down. Could I leave them on? Will they change color ?
Steven1032: I am no expert, but what you have growing there is actually a Hot Hungarian Wax IMO. I thought I was growing bananas last year and found out otherwise. The Hungarians have upward pointing fruit just like yours. I planted Sweet Bananas this year, and while the fruits are similar, they hang downward as expected. I am guessing if you inspect the fruits, they will be very smooth skinned. A banana will be less smooth and are usually longer, skinnier and a bit more pointed.
Here is a close up of one of my Banana's from this year:
Here are some of my Hot Hungarian Wax from last year:
It could just be semantics as HHW and Hot Banana Peppers are names used interchangeably.
i live here in ft hood area central texas. they are three months old.
the more you pick, the faster they grow. the habs in front and bhuts to the right are loaded down. waiting for them to turn orange.
this will be the first year that i want to over winter, never have tried it before. trying to get a potting soil that will work. looking at the 5-1-1. seems pretty good. just hard to find ingredients.
your right. label said hot banana peppers. i bought them for my wife. she likes them and the cabanelle. i grew the sweet banana pepper last year. i got so many bhuts but only two chocolate habaneros. i have never tasted a choc hab. people say they are good, wish i knew.
I believe Hot Bananas are actually misnamed, and are actually Hungarian Wax. From all I can tell, they are the same plant, and Hot Banana is just a slang name for them. I think possibly one source of this misnaming is the hot pepper rings you buy at the store use the name Hot Bananas as an ingredient for marketing rather then Hungarian Wax.
But then again, what is in a name? Renaming of items for marketing purposes is a very common practice.
sounds like a lot of growers call hungarian wax, hot banana peppers. looks like thats what happened in my case.
from what i read from "capoman" the naming is like texans calling a hungarian wax a hot banana pepper
and people up north calling a hungarian wax a hungarian wax.
for my benefit and seemingly a lot of others, please explain the differences (ie: Scovilles, growing habits, color, size, etc...) that you know of between:
1. Hot Hungarian Wax Pepper
2. Sweet Banana Pepper
3. Hot Banana Pepper
Every time I think I have got a handle on it, someone posts something that completely confuses me again.
Sure thing, Bruce!
Hungarian Wax - pods set upright, then hang downward once they have some weight.
The skin of the pod is smooth and waxy; the pod is a more consistent thickness
from the shoulder to the tip, with only a slight curvature and taper towards the tip.
Hot Banana - pods set downward from the start. The skin isn't as waxy, and has a slight
texture. The pods are often widest at the shoulder, with more curvature along the length,
as well as more pronounced "ribs" or lobes, or whatever they're called. The pods tend to
have a more pointy tip, not as blunt as the Hungarian.
Scovilles seem to be in the same ballpark, although I think one of the Hot Bananas
that I ate was hotter than any Hungarian that I've had...so take that for what it's worth.
Sweet Banana...never grown it, no idea what it's like.
Cool, thanks Josh.
I would like to see some info on the differences between Sweet Banana Peppers and Hot Banana Peppers. Anyone????
I sliced my Hot Hungarians last year and cold canned them for sandwiches. They were just about right in heat by my standards. My father wanted less heat, that is why I am growing the SWEET Banana peppers this year. I am wondering just how hot the sweet ones are and what differences between the sweet and hot bananas there are besides heat.
I purchased some store "SWEET" Banana Pepper slices last year after I ran out thinking they would have little to no heat. They were about the same heat as my Hot Hungarian Wax slices. But they were labeled as Sweet and I think they were.
I suppose I can just wait until my Sweet banana Peppers are ready to pick this year but I am interested in what to expect.
what about the other tell-tale characteristics?
Are you saying that the Hot Banana set upright, then developed all the secondary
pod characteristics that I mentioned above? Or did the pods go on to resemble Hungarians?
I just assume that most folks are actually getting Hungarians sold as Hot Bananas.
If you've seen the two growing side by side, there really should be no confusion (barring a hybrid).

Grabbing guys' crotches, stroking poles and asking for a good drilling at Home Depot probably isn't the best way to show you're not gay. That's exactly what Jesse P's alter ego J Pee does in this parody clip titled, guess what… "I'm Not Gay." The homo-bro rap track was written by Pepe himself and features lots of gratuitous shirtless shots and inappropriate touching. My kind of video ;)
I'm not sure exactly who Jesse Pepe is, but I did uncover a bit of info. He's originally from Salt Lake City, but now lives in North Hollywood, California. Side note: What's in the water in SLC? Is everyone a hot Mormon there? Pepe studied Musical Theatre at Weber State University. I can't tell if he's an aspiring actor or model. I found both an IMDB and Model Mayhem profile. What I do know is he's cute and has great taste in male co-stars. Check out his hilarious claims about not being gay below.
What if you mixed Blossom's characters and their signature hats with Girls' hipster vibe? You get a cute parody starring Jenna Von Oy. If you recall, Von Oy played the 90s sitcom's titular character's BFF, Six. It's good to know that she's working still, albeit in parody videos. Perhaps she can stage a real-life reunion on either of her former co-stars' new shows- The Big Bang Theory (Mayim Bialik) and Melissa & Joey (Joey Lawrence).
In the clip, Jenna plays Six once again but this time channeling Shoshanna (Zosia Mamet) from the HBO comedy. Stepping in to play Blossom is Kerri Doherty who impeccably takes on Hannah's (Lena Dunham) voice and mannerisms. The 90s BFFs discuss the perils of STDs, secret babies and flowery hat collections. The best part of the clip is when Six tells Blossom that she had an affair with Blossom's dad and that they have a child named Seven. LOL.
This is freaking awesome. I freaking love a good Disney Parody and this new sketch from College Humor is pretty bang on. The video is a parody of the new film, Spring Breakers which stars former Disney stars Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez who, with a couple other girls, let loose during Spring Break. Next summer, it's the former Disney Princesses that take a turn and they "let looser."
What happens in the Magic Kingdom, stays in the Magic Kingdom as four of the Disney Princesses decide to venture out for a wild vacation, showing a side of themselves we've never seen before. Abby Elliott (SNL) stars as Cinderella and joins her badass friends, Snow White, Ariel and Jasmine for one hell of an adventure. Jasmine suggests they rob Cinderalla's "b*tch Stepmother" and then head on vacation for Spring Break. James Franco's character is the Genie in this parody. Here are some of the best quotes from this faux trailer:
- Prince Charming: [To Cinderella as he holds glass slipper] "Wear this… and only this."
- Jasmine: "Here goes, better throw my hand in, wish me happy landing… All I gotta do is… this bump."
- Ariel: "Darling it's better, down where it's wetter, under the sheets."
- Snow White: [as she eats an apple] "You just take one bite and it will f*ck you up."
Watch the hilarious trailer below. It reminds me of The Real Housewives of Disney sketch they did on SNL. So good! Enjoy the video below.
This is exactly why I just adore this man. If you read my recent post about the beef between Adrienne Maloof and him, you know that the reunion specials are my favorite part of any Real Housewives season. After watching this promo vid featuring my silver fox Man Crush, I'm even more excited for the three-part RHOA reunion special starting on April 7. Coming off moderating back-to-back reunion specials for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Andy Cohen probably needs some downtime. I know I would after listening to women yell at each other for countless hours over petty topics ;)
In the clip, the 44-year-old Bravo exec parodies Justin Timberlake's "I'm Ready." If you recall, the "Suit & Tie" singer announced his comeback in the black and white video. In Cohen's version, he drops multiple Housewives references while declaring his love for his stable of arguing women. "Housewives mean more to me more than anybody else in the world," says Cohen in the clip. Duh!!! No question without them, Andy wouldn't a Bravo-lebrity himself.
The promo below features some of the most memorable lines from RHOA this season including "Gone with the Wind fabulous,' "Donkey booties," and Porscha Stewart's infamous blond moment about 265 days in a year. Other shows from the Housewives franchise are also represented in the clip like Ana's mysterious folder of incriminating evidence she waved around during the Miami Season 2 reunion. My favorite part, though, is when Kenya Moore whips out her fan as Andy walks by. So draglicious. Check it out below.
I love a good disney parody and also love a good a cappella cover so the video below made me very happy. A YouTuber/Singer named Jon Cozart created a song called "After Ever After" that he sings a cappella with himself.
The "After Ever After" lyrics tell the story of several of your favorite Disney characters and what happened to them after they lived happily ever after. For example, here's what happened to Ariel:
"I loved being princess down in — this beautiful ocean blue / But mermaids are going missing — they end up in someone's stew / So just try to put yourself in — to somebody else's gills / You're killing my ecosystem — with fishing and oil spills / Thank you BP, thank you BP / The British are killing, oil is spilling / Now I can't see… MY EYES! / Chinamen feast on Flounder's fins / Plus the Japanese killed all my whale friends / Oceans are browning, I think I'm drowning / Thanks to BP / YOU SUCK!"
Other than Ariel, the other characters we learn about included Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, and Prince Ali. Enjoy!
The hilarious people at NonRandomNonSense have just uploaded a video titled "The Ultimate Anti-Gay Marriage Ad" and it's so over-the-top yet bang on at the same time. The video pokes fun and the ridiculous and ignorant anti-gay marriage ads that have circulated over the past few years.
In the parody ad, a guy comes home from work and his wife greets him. He's super bummed about something so his wife doesn't hesitate to ask him what's wrong. He drops the bomb that gays are trying to get married and she's beyond shocked and terrified. Listening to the things they whine about is hilarious and things reach a whole new level when their little girl walks into the room.
As a side note, to give you an example of the humor of these guys, their YouTube account informs viewers, "New Video Every Time One Is Uploaded!" LOL. Enjoy the parody ad below.
As part of Seth MacFarlane's opening monologue performance at the Academy Awards this year, he performed a number called "We Saw Your Boobs" where he listed off the many actresses that have bared their breasts in cinema. As you can expect, many people didn't like it although I think it's okay to laugh at things like that once and a while – they're just boobs in the end and every woman has them.
Anyway, one man wasted no time at all in coming up with a retort video in which he flips the script and talks about actors who have done full frontal. The song is called, "We Saw Your Junk." It's actually really well done and it's a great way to recall all of the men who have actually shown their "junk" in movies.
Watch the funny (it's just a penis, it's not-offensive) video below.
Everyone's favorite celebrity name-dropping wasted duo are back. I had no idea it's been practically a year since they uploaded a video on their YouTube channel. Thankfully, Jessica and Hunter posted a brand spankin' new clip to remind us exactly how hilariously tragic they are. I could practically smell the vodka when I received a notification. God, I missed them. Clearly, they sensed I was heading down to Los Angeles next week to stalk them and harass those lazy bitches to film a new webisode. Crisis (for them) averted.
Titled "Peek-a-boo," Jessica and Hunter wake up in the park looking like a couple of "homeless clowns." You'd expect nothing less. They find themselves bumping into a former party friend who's now a responsible parent. Obviously, they can't comprehend the idea of a baby unless it's attached to a celebrity (the star f*ckers that they are). They definitely should never be within 100 feet of children. For their safety and the kids. Check out their latest clip below.

He's neither a hero nor a villain for me...he's a lost soul who uncovered the truth behind the evilness of LAPD but evil got the best of him too. Let's us all pray for people who died on this case and their families as well as every disturbed and lost soul in the world.
#4 Feb 13, 2013
He is a piece of shit that is now dead thank god for that, the expense to tax payers would have been enormous. I guess losing your job ( which he probably deserved) you should seek revenge by killing people you think done you wrong ? He didn't deserve to wear the uniform, again I am so glad that garbage is dead, couldn't imagine the trial and all the expense he would have cost including incarceration for the rest of his life. If he really wanted to get back at "the man" he should have turned his self in and laid around in a prison for the next 40 years at taxpayers expense like the rest of the GARBAGE !!!

You're the garbage. Yes what he did was heinous and in the end he died for it but to wish any one dead is just plain EVIL!!! I would have rather him have to live his life out locked up having to live with what he done. DEATH WAS THE EASY WAY OUT!!!

How is it that all of you feel so comfortable talking so openly about the different aspects of your relationships?
I myself worry about D-Day, so even though this site deals with anonymity, if I comment I try not to share too much because I worry "what if someone we mutually know sees this and somehow figure it out?" Maybe I'm just paranoid, I don't know.
StarFire31 26-30, F 5 Answers 2 May 20, 2014 in Community
I don't share too much personal stuff here or in real life. You're smart to do the same.
Best Answer
Most of us on here are using this site for therapeutic purposes, If some one is so bent on exposing me then I wouldn't care about them enough to worry.
Best Answer
I know what you mean and will sometimes ask people if they want to know my experience they need to message me then I can help.

Let us all cry for Molly, but all be proud that she was able to find the fortitude to tell it like it is.
I missed my chance to see her in person when she was in Michigan but will not pass the chance to say I will miss her, revere her and reread her books to remind me to stand up for what is right, not what ohers say could be.
Thank you Molly and there will forever be a light on in my heart for you.

Lexington Police Release Letters from Former Governor Nunn to Son
By Shelly Baskin & The Associated Press
Lexington Police have released documents chronicling a murder investigation that ended in a guilty plea from the son of former Governor Louie B. Nunn. The 191 pages includes a 1997 letter from the former governor to his son Steve Nunn saying quote "within my mind and memory, you do not exist." Nunn pleaded guilty in June to the September 2009, shooting death of 29-year-old Amanda Ross. He had been engaged to Ross. Nunn is serving life in prison without parole. The documents include interviews with family and friends describing the couple's volatile relationship. In the letter, Louie Nunn accuses his son of physical and verbal abuse of family members — allegations similar to those made by Ross before her death. Louie Nunn died in 2004.

I have heard. Mulla Nasruddin was filling out a report because he had crashed his car into a parked car. He was filling out a report, and many things were asked. When he came to the part where it was asked what the driver of the other vehicle could have done to avoid the accident, he filled it, "He should have parked the car somewhere else. The car was parked there; he should have parked it somewhere else - because of him the accident has happened."
And this is what you are doing. Always the other is responsible: he should have done something or other and there would have been no suffering. No, the other is not responsible at all. You are responsible, and unless you take this responsibility consciously upon you, you will not change. The change will become possible, easily possible, the moment you realize that you are responsible for it.
If you have suffered, it was your choice. This is what the law of karma is, nothing else: you are wholly responsible. Whatsoever happens - suffering or happiness, hell or heaven - whatsoever happens, ultimately you are totally responsible. This is what the law of karma is: total responsibility is with you.
But don't be afraid, don't be scared by it, because if the total responsibility is with you, then suddenly a door of freedom opens - because if you are the cause of your suffering, you can change. If others are the cause, then you cannot change. Then how can you change? Unless the whole world changes, you will suffer. And there seems to be no way to change others - then suffering cannot end.
But we are so pessimistic that even such beautiful doctrines as the law of karma we interpret in such a way that they don't free and liberate us, but rather, on the contrary, they make us more burdened. In India the law of karma has been known for at least five thousand years or even more, but what have we done? It is not that we have taken responsibility upon ourselves; we have thrown all the responsibility on the law of karma - that it is happening because of the law of karma and we cannot do anything, nothing can be done; because of the past lives this life is such.
The law of karma was to free you. It was giving you total freedom towards yourself. No one else can make any suffering for you - this was the message. If you are suffering you have created it. You are the master of your fate, and if you want to change it, immediately you can change it and the life will be different. But the attitude..
I have heard, once two friends were talking. One was a bona fide optimist, the other a bona fide pessimist. Even the optimist was not too happy about the situation. The optimist said, "If this economic crisis continues and these political catastrophes continue and the world remains the same as it is, immoral, then we are going to be reduced to begging soon."
Even he was not too hopeful about it - the optimist. When he said, "We are going to be reduced to begging," the pessimist said, "From whom? From whom are you going to beg if this condition continues?"
You have a mind, and you goon bringing your mind to everything. Really, you transform the quality of every teaching and doctrine. You defeat buddhas and krishnas so easily because you convert the whole thing; you color it in your own way.

The sequel to Little Women sees the March sisters grow up and experience great love and tragedy in their lives
It is three years since we last met the inimitable March sisters and much has changed since we left them as little women. Meg, the eldest and most sensible of the sisters, is preparing to marry Mr. Brooke. She no longer works as a governess, instead happily looking after her young twins, Demi and Daisy. Jo, as ever the life of any gathering, goes to live in New York as a governess. She is concerned that Laurie, the March girls' friend, may be planning to propose to her and she will have to refuse him because she doesn't love him. Beth, the sweet and kind third daughter, has never recovered from the scarlet fever and is becoming more ill by the day. And Amy, the darling baby, seems finally to be catching up with her sisters. She goes on a tour to Europe, developing her considerable artistic skills and will end up surprising them all by marrying someone the family knows very well indeed. This intriguing sequel is a more mature book that is ultimately just as uplifting as its better known prequel with a strikingly modern message of female empowerment. Includes an extended character profile of Beth.
"Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents," grumbled Jo, lying on the rug.
"It's so dreadful to be poor!" sighed Meg, looking down at her old dress.
"I don't think it's fair for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and other girls nothing at all," added little Amy, with an injured sniff.
"We've got Father and Mother and each other," said Beth contentedly from her corner.
The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly, "We haven't got Father, and shall not have him for a long time." She didn't say "perhaps never," but each silently added it, thinking of Father far away, where the fighting was.
Nobody spoke for a minute. Then Meg said in an altered tone, "You know the reason Mother proposed not having any presents this Christmas was because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone, and she thinks we ought not to spend money for pleasure when our men are suffering so in the army. We can't do much, but we can make our little sacrifices, and ought to do it gladly. But I am afraid I don't." And Meg shook her head, as she thought regretfully of all the pretty things she wanted.
"But I don't think the little weshould spend would do any good. We've each got a dollar, and the army wouldn't be much helped by our giving that. I agree not to expect anything from Mother or you, but I do want to buy Undine and Sintram for myself. I've wanted it so long," said Jo, who was a bookworm.
"I planned to spend mine in new music," said Beth, with a little sigh, which no one heard but the hearth brush and kettle holder.
"I shall get a nice box of Faber's drawing pencils. I really need them," said Amy decidedly.
"Mother didn't say anything about our money, and she won't wish us to give up everything. Let's each buy what we want, and have a little fun. I'm sure we work hard enough to earn it," cried Jo, examining the heels of her shoes in a gentlemanly manner.
"I know I do - teaching those tiresome children nearly all day, when I'm longing to enjoy myself at home," began Meg, in the complaining tone again.
"You don't have half such a hard time as I do," said Jo. "How would you like to be shut up for hours with a nervous, fussy old lady, who keeps you trotting, is never satisfied, and worries you till you're ready to fly out of the window or cry?"
"It's naughty to fret, but I do think washing dishes and keeping things tidy is the worst work in the world. It makes me cross, and my hands get so stiff, I can't practice well at all." And Beth looked at her rough hands with a sigh that anyone could hear that time.
"I don't believe any of you suffer as I do," cried Amy, "for you don't have to go to school with impertinent girls, who plague you if you don't know your lessons, and laugh at your dresses, and label your father if he isn't rich, and insult you when your nose isn't nice."
"If you mean libel, I'd say so, and not talk about labels, as if Papa was a pickle bottle," advised Jo, laughing.
"I know what I mean, and you needn't be statirical about it. It's proper to use good words, and improve your vocabilary," returned Amy, with dignity.
"Don't peck at one another, children. Do you wish we had the money Papa lost when we were little, Jo? Dear me! How happy and good we'd be, if we had no worries!" said Meg, who could remember better times.
"You said, the other day, you thought we were a deal happier than the King children, for they were fighting and fretting all the time, in spite of their money."
"So I did, Beth. Well, I think we are. For though we do have to work, we make fun of ourselves, and are a pretty jolly set, as Jo would say."
"Jo does use such slang words!" observed Amy, with a reproving look at the long figure stretched on the rug.
Jo immediately sat up, put her hands in her pockets, and began to whistle.
"Don't, Jo. It's so boyish!"
"That's why I do it."
"I detest rude, unladylike girls!"
"I hate affected, niminy-piminy chits!"
"Birds in their little nests agree," sang Beth, the peacemaker, with such a funny face that both sharp voices softened to a laugh, and the "pecking" ended for that time.
"Really, girls, you are both to be blamed," said Meg, beginning to lecture in her elder-sisterly fashion. "You are old enough to leave off boyish tricks, and to behave better, Josephine. It didn't matter so much when you were a little girl, but now you are so tall, and turn up your hair, you should remember that you are a young lady."
"I'm not! And if turning up my hair makes me one, I'll wear it in two tails till I'm twenty," cried Jo, pulling off her net, and shaking down a chestnut mane. "I hate to think I've got to grow up, and be Miss March, and wear long gowns, and look as prim as a China aster! It's bad enough to be a girl, anyway, when I like boys' games and work and manners! I can't get over my disappointment in not being a boy. And it's worse than ever now, for I'm dying to go and fight with Papa. And I can only stay home and knit, like a poky old woman!" And Jo shook the blue army sock till the needles rattled like castanets, and her ball bounded across the room.

One of the worst games of its generation
As a teenager, I loved Wolverine. When I saw they were making an all-Wolverine game, my young brain got excited. I bought it for $50, and boy was I disappointed. Bland graphics, an uninspired plot, and awful game play. How they managed to ruin a game where you play as a mutant with claws coming out of his knuckles is beyond me. This is, without a doubt, the worst game I own.

Strategies for keeping teenagers safe from violence
All parents face the same challenges when it comes to their children's safety: whom to trust, whom to distrust, what to believe, what to doubt, what to fear, and what not to fear. In this empowering book, Gavin de Becker, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior and author of the monumental bestseller The Gift of Fear, offers practical new steps to enhance children's safety at every age level, giving you the tools you need to allow your kids freedom without losing sleep yourself. With daring and compassion, he shatters the widely held myths about danger and safety and helps parents find some certainty about life's highest-stakes questions:
How can I know a baby-sitter won't turn out to be someone who harms my child? (see page 103)
What should I ask child-care professionals when I interview them? (see page 137)
What's the best way to prepare my child for walking to school alone? (see page 91)
How can my child be safer at school? (see page 175)
How can I spot sexual predators? (see page 148)
What should I do if my child is lost in public? (see page 86)
How can I teach my child about risk without causing too much fear? (see page 98)
What must my teenage daughter know in order to be safe? (see page 191)
What must my teenage son know in order to be safe? (see page 218)
And finally, in the face of all these questions, how can I reduce the worrying? (see page 56) less
