When it comes to preparing for standardized tests, everyone seems to have an opinion. Whether it's the "when in doubt, choose C" mantra or that SAT/ACT prep courses are the only way to guarantee a high score, it's important to note that while test tips are well-intentioned, they don't necessarily translate into good or even practical advice. But don't fret, the U.S. News & World Report has debunked seven popular standardized test myths to get you through the stressful process. Here are a few of our favorites:
Myth 1: Taking both tests will double your chances of doing well.
If you are remarkably better at one test, it should become evident pretty quickly after some practice. If it doesn't, then you are probably like most kids and will do equally well on either. Pick the test you feel more comfortable with and put your efforts into that test.
Myth 2: The ACT is an easier test than the SAT.
The ACT is a different test, not better or easier. In fact, most kids will get similar scores on both. Note though that most doesn't mean everyone—and might not mean you.
Myth 3: The SAT is more coachable than the ACT.
Familiarize yourself with both. Take a practice test of each. Then, compare not just your scores but also your relative strengths and weaknesses on each test. Which areas of weakness are likely to be the easiest for you to improve?
Myth 4: You should take the SAT or ACT as often as you can.
Unless you plan to start on the varsity SAT team, you are probably better served by taking the SAT and ACT only a couple of times.

For seniors in high school, it's about that time to dive into your college applications. The process is rather involved and has the potential to become very stressful but here's how you can go about it while retaining your sanity.
First, you likely already have a list of colleges you are considering but start narrowing down your top contenders. Look at the majors they offer and see if they have the programs you're interested in. Check the cost – financial aid may play a key role in what college you attend – and also see if they have activities that interest you (a sport you want to play, a specific student organization, a Greek system, an honors program, etc.). What's the on-campus housing situation and could you see yourself living in the dorms? Consider these questions and more when deciding whether or not to apply to a college.
Second, check all the application deadlines. Remember, besides the actual application, you must submit test scores, transcripts, recommendation letters and personal statements and you need adequate time to procure all of these items. Also, review the fees associated with each application; some schools let you apply for free or a discounted rate online but you should also consider requesting application fee waivers if money is tight.
Third, the personal statement is the biggest part of the college application because it represents your personality. You may have a high GPA, AP classes and extracurricular activities but so do many other students – what will set you apart from the rest of the application pool is how you present yourself in the personal statement. Have a teacher or parent review your personal statement and edit it for you before submitting it to your college of choice.
Fourth – and although this is fourth on this list, you still want to get it done early – request recommendation letters. Ask teachers you've worked with and trust well in advance if they can write on your behalf. Have two or three for each college that requires one. Along with your personal information/resume/school involvement list, give the teacher an envelope that is stamped and addressed to the college(s) to which you're applying so they can submit their letters directly.
Last but not least, take all your tests on time. If you haven't taken the ACT, SAT or SAT II tests, register for the next available date; check which tests your colleges require and sign up for those ASAP!

Show of hands, people: Who has ever applied to college or is considering applying to college by using the Common Application? As the list of schools accepting this document grows (there are currently 488 members), so will the number of college hopefuls opting to use it. It's incredibly convenient for students looking to apply to multiple schools but future applicants should know that big changes are afoot for the next admissions cycle.
According to representatives from the Common Application, changes – which will take effect on August 1, 2013 – include web-only submission and the removal of the popular "topic of your choice" essay option. Rules regarding the essays will also become more rigid: Students will be required to write at least 250 words but those who exceed the 500-word maximum will face an error message. Lastly, the ability to upload resumes will be eliminated unless specifically requested by a particular college.
What do you think of the Common App's new approach? Will you welcome the changes or will they deter you from using this application method altogether?

The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Essay Contest is the nation's most prestigious honor for elected public servants. The Award was created in 1989 by members of President Kennedy's family to honor President John F. Kennedy and recognize and celebrate the quality of political courage that he admired most.
The Profile in Courage Essay Contest invites high school students to consider the concept of political courage by writing an essay on a U.S. official who has chosen to do what is right, rather than what is expedient. A "Profile in Courage" essay is a carefully researched recounting of a story: the story of how an elected official risked his or her career to take a stand based on moral principles.
Students are asked to write an original and creative essay of less than 1,000 words that demonstrates an understanding of political courage as described by John F. Kennedy in "Profiles in Courage." Students should use a variety of sources such as newspaper articles, books, and/or personal interviews to address this year's essay topic.
The essay topic, submission guidelines and contest details can be found online. For more information on this scholarship and other scholarship opportunities, conduct a free scholarship search today!

Jon Bellion - New York Soul
Artist: Jon Bellion
Producer: Jon Bellion
Album: The Separation
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 3 votes )
Jon Bellion's musical career has taken him all over the globe, but his heart remains in the Big Apple. New York Soul, the third single off the singer/songwriter and producer's forthcoming full-length, is a wistful reflection on life on the road. Bellion's own melancholy piano chords accompany him as he contemplates the people waiting for him back home: "See my mother on Skype, hear my sisters through postcards they write / Watch my niece grow through Instagram…" GRVTY directs the joint's intimate visual accompaniment. Bellion's next LP has yet to receive either a title or a spot on the release calendar, but we'll keep you posted on the set as further details emerge.

3.5 million dollars for a girls Virginity O.O? Like WTF ?!
Who the hell got that kinda money laying around, let alone why would you even bother i mean come on this is a bit frikin crazy to even come up with this let alone have people letting this happen.Just makes me wonder sometimes what some people really care about.
Haha it would be funny as hell if it was some 70 year old millionaire xD
....Player Killer....??* "There is nothing to fear but F.E.A.R. it self -(F.E.A.R) " ??*
I think when its said to "value" your viginitiy, it doesn't mean in dollar amounts. I think someone should tell her that.They say you should value having sex for the first time. That's why I'm auctioning my virginity online
My opinion on the whole ordeal is, that people will remember her as the virginity wh***And nobody will take her seriously in her career or in life. She is ruining her rep for a brief moment in the money light. Once that moneys gone, she won't have any dignity left. And if for some ridiculous reason she believes she does, i'm sure those around her will believe she is a true dumbass.
That is all.
I'm a glass child. I am Hannah's regrets. Monster.
Someone is speaking my language. Valuing something does not mean you put a dollar amount on it. I'm thinking she is stone crazy now. I've read a few more articles and she is refusing to relent even with the threat to potentially losing her license.
Our love will go on until the end of time. I will always be yours and you will be mine.

I beheld a web framework implementing in-memory session in this way. The session object is added to Cache with timeout. When the time is out, the session is removed from Cache automatically. To protect race condition, each request should acquire lock on given session object to proceed. Each request will "touch" the session in Cache to refresh the timeout.
Everything looks fine, until this scenario is discovered. Say, one operation takes a long time, longer than timeout. Another request comes and wait on session lock which is currently hold by the long-time request. Finally, the long-time request is over, it releases the lock. But, since it already takes longer time than timeout, the session object is already removed from Cache. This is obvious because the only request holding the lock doesn't have a chance to "touch" the session object in cache. The second request gets the lock but cannot retrieve the expired Session object. Oops...
To fix this issue, the second request has to re-create the Session object. But, this is just like digging a buried dead body from tomb and try to bring it back to life. It causes buggy code.
I'm wondering what's the best way to implement timeout in session to handle such scenario. I know that current platform must have good session mechanism. I just want to know the under-the-hood how.

Downloading patterns
My sister was telling me that someone in her group told her that when you download a "free" pattern from one of the many sites out there, that you should be sending a donation to that site/person.
Seems to me if it says free then that is what it is.
Do you ever send a donation for a free pattern?
Theresa, unless a site asks for a donation I don't think you need to make one. It seems to me one of the main reasons for offering a free pattern is to let people get to know your work so they want to buy patterns from you.
That said, even for a free pattern, if you want to make a bunch of copies and distribute them (like for a guild class or project), I think you should ask the designer's permission.
Back in the dawn of consumer software, many individuals put out what they called "Shareware". You could download it for free, and if you liked it, you could send a few bucks to the developer. Often this was a way of testing the software - and it was often buggy.
Then eventually, they would offer it for sale if it finally was debugged, worked well, and had some consumer interest. But these people gave out the address to send money to, and were actually more interested in the comments and complaints about the product - early unpaid testers!
Bloggers and online pattern sellers offer free stuff for free, for a reason. They do not expect you to make a donation. Bloggers often get a small revenue from the ads on their blogspot. And some of them are just generous.
Online shops offer freebies as a way to get you browsing their shop - where you just might buy something. That's no different than sampling cheese, crackers or pizza bites at a grocery store. They are samples, buy or not as you see fit.
Quilters Cache is a free website for quilt blocks and has a page where you can donate, or not.
Here is a link that might be useful: Quilter's Cache donation page

The Perfect Server - CentOS 5.4 x86_64 [ISPConfig 3] - Page 2
Now we select the software we want to install. Select nothing but Server (uncheck everything else). Also don't check Packages from CentOS Extras. Then check Customize now, and click on Next:
Now we must select the package groups we want to install. Select Editors, Text-based Internet, Development Libraries, Development Tools, DNS Name Server, FTP Server, Mail Server, MySQL Database, Server Configuration Tools, Web Server, Administration Tools, Base, and System Tools (unselect all other package groups) and click on Next:
The installer checks the dependencies of the selected packages:
Click on Next to start the installation:
The hard drive is being formatted:
The installation begins. This will take a few minutes:
Finally, the installation is complete, and you can remove your CD or DVD from the computer and reboot it:
After the reboot, you will see this screen. Select Firewall configuration and hit Run Tool:
I want to install ISPConfig at the end of this tutorial which comes with its own firewall. That's why I disable the default CentOS firewall now. Of course, you are free to leave it on and configure it to your needs (but then you shouldn't use any other firewall later on as it will most probably interfere with the CentOS firewall).
SELinux is a security extension of CentOS that should provide extended security. In my opinion you don't need it to configure a secure system, and it usually causes more problems than advantages (think of it after you have done a week of trouble-shooting because some service wasn't working as expected, and then you find out that everything was ok, only SELinux was causing the problem). Therefore I disable it, too (this is a must if you want to install ISPConfig later on). Hit OK afterwards:
Then leave the Setup Agent by selecting Exit:
Then log in as root and reboot the system so that your changes can be applied:
Now, on to the configuration...

If you are following this tutorial to the tee like you should, be advised a newer kernel update is available and will be upgraded and will affect the compiling of courier etc, you will not see a problem until after a subsequent reboot. I would either recommend disabling kernel updates before doing the yum update in step 7 Install Some Software or rebooting after the yum update in step 7 Install Some Software and then disabling kernel updates. Took me quite a while to figure out this problem as I am a newbie to Linux. I hope this helps out other people.
After the group install of Development Tools, you should probably add the following perl install to be sure. I followed these instructions, but skipped adding SMTP/POP. Take a look at your httpd error log and you'll see problems. My httpd (apache) server would lock up intermittently. Adding the statement below and rebooting fixed it:
yum install perl-TimeDate

I'm stuck at this step Please advise
http://n0rp.chemlab.org/vlogger/vlogger-1.3.tar.gz is a dead link, can not find any other links. what a waste of 2 days worth of installing for ISPConfig :/
This tutorial is seriously jacked up. I've spent over 8 hours, and half of this does not work. Find another route to take for ISPConfig!
Great tutorial and all worked from first!!! For everyone having troubles just read carefully and check your typo :) Big THANKS to the auhor
I've come across this tutorial a number of times because it looks like a great potential solution and finally took some time to walk through it on a test server.
Although the functionality looks great I'm rather concerned with the general lack of security and long term stability concern these instructions seem to have. True lots of people like to turn off SELINUX and GPG checks and you'll probably be fine, but more importantly the major reliance on disparate third party (and largely unaccountable) repositories and patches could make long term security and stability a serious issue. To start, the instructions are already giving paths to out of date software packages, but what happens when a serious security update is released? I could easily see running yum updates from official and third party repos, plus manual rpmbuilds could get things out of sync alone, but what happens when a patch or repo provider stops supplying updates? Do you realize this before or after you've tried to apply updates? And what services have you lost in the meantime without a clear path for resolution?
True a more experienced admin can pick and choose or modify aspects of the instructions to better suit their security and stability needs, but a lot of less experienced admins could be opening themselves up to the ticking time bomb of non-updatable system likely running production data for potentially paying customers.
As always with other people's "prefect build" instructions, be very cautious of what you are running and educate yourself on the finer details of how it all works. Remember it's going to fall on you to fix things when they break, so make sure you have a good path to CYA. ;)
This line:
mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root password yourrootsqlpassword
should probably look like this:
mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root -p password yourrootsqlpassword

great job :)
Great job!
thanks for this tut: Great work! what is the squirrelmails username and passwd? admin /admin too, like in the ispconfig app?
cheers volker
If mail sticks in deferred queue & amavisd won't stay running then be sure to run sa-update!
maillog shows something like:
status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
I found this out by running:
/usr/sbin/amavisd foreground
Which told me:
Suicide () TROUBLE in pre_loop_hook: config: no rules were found! Do you need to run 'sa-update'?
After running sa-update then restarting mail started getting delivered.
Took me forever to figure that out since the maillog made no mention of amavid or sa-update (spamassassin) so hope it helps someone avoid the frustration of a step this how-to missed.
Thanks for your info! This helped me...
But old messages has not been routed to mail yet...
In page 37/69 there is the step of building the rpm for courier-imap. I am gettin gthe following problem while trying to run the rpmbuild:
RPM build errors:
Bad exist status from /var/tmp/rpm.tmp.14636 (%prep)
What is the soultion for this problem?
Thanks in advance
very great tutorial!
Easy to follow and rather simple to update and configure for i386.
Forum replies have been fast and accurate!
Thank you for your time and support

Cathedral Basillica of Saint Joseph
This huge, multi-domed church was originally built in 1877 and was restored to its original splendor in 1990. This is actually the fifth location of the parish seat; the first was built in 1803. The present structure is a monumental building. Incredible stained glass work renders the sanctuary into a lovely, almost mystical space when the sun causes the colors to play across the walls, pews and floor. Masses are held in Spanish and English.

Loved the staff!! Very friendly!!!
Breakfast selection was poor.
Nothing, the rooms were suppose to have queen beds, not queen beds. The desk staff spent more time outside smoking than at the desk. Their were 5 of us. They had no towels for the second day. They cleaned our room and their was still stuff on the floors.
Dirty bed linen, which we had to change ourselves.
the convenience of the hotel and location
Clean room, courteous staff, near our visiting destination.
We had to ask for more towels, but they were given to us.
Room and everything was clean and well kep
I reserved a king and got a queen and they did not seam to care or offer any apology or discount or anything.
Price was right, comfortable bed, clean and quiet.
Would've liked a shower cap and more coffee condiments in room, but I'm sure the desk would've had them for no charge. We just didn't ask.
Rooms were updated and clean with new carpet and clean towels. We had a microwave and refrigerator and even a couch and coffee table. We stayed here last year for the Tyler Rose Marathon and came back because we liked it so much. You get so much for your money as compared to the other hotels in the area.
Staff was great!!
Hot tub and pool was alittle to warm
Beds comfy and linens
Bathroom could be cleaner. Corners and between vanity dirty
Stained carpet everywhere in all hallways. The room had a foul odor. Dead bugs in the hallways.
Rooms, beds, TV's all very nice.
Breakfast seemed a little disorganized. The space to eat was too small for the number of guests.
This hotel should be classified as a 3 star instead of 2 star. I have stayed at some 3 star hotels that were not near as nice as this hotel. I enjoyed the comfortable room the most. The staff were very accommodating. I also enjoyed the pool.
I did not like the fact that breakfast ended at 9:00 am. Most hotels I have stayed in will end breakfast at 10:00 am.
Everything was clean and functional. For the age of the structure and the price I was satisfied.
The shower is very outdated. Functional but rather ragged. It was clean.
Close to route, very clean, friendly staff, comfortable, nice breakfast.
Great room for the money, very clean. Loved the bathroom.
The "adjustable firmness bed" had one setting, hard as a rock. Not sure if it was just broke or what, but the adjustment nob did nothing. That is the only complaint. Eventing else was wonderful.
The area is nice. The facilities are new and clean.
Rooms and bathrooms were very clean.
Everything you need, but you're not paying for extras you don't.
Free breakfast with healthy options.
About a 15 minute drive to the airport.
Nice TVs, with plenty of options.
Employees I came in contact with all seemed personable.
No grubhub (which isn't their fault) options.
Lack of non-fast food options nearby (again, not their fault).
Task lighting not so great (if you're working, it's not ideal).
Lack of outlet for cell phone near bed to keep phone charging and use alarm. (it's a little thing, but would be a nice touch).
The room was very nice and clean. The free breakfast was very good with hot items like waffles, sausage biscuits and many other things.
Our room was next to housekeeping and the washer was noisey when filling up at 7am. Not a big deal because we were up early anyway. The tub also was slow draining.
It was clean, adequate parking, good price, and quiet.
I disliked nothing
Too many drugs around and people using them. We were very scared.

In keeping with The Singin' Dentist, Steve Lipman's dream of spreading the Arts to the Windsor community, he commissioned the outstanding cutting edge artist, Andres Chaparro, noted for his unique
use of color and texture, to create "living" renditions of jazz greats in a style that only he could muster. The result surpassed any and all expectations!!!
Check out these fabulous artworks which now adorn our building downtown!!!
And while you're at it, pick up a treat at 226 Jazz Art Java!
Thanks Andres Chaparro and The Art of Andres Chaparro!!!! Also thanks to Patricia Fahy for her help in facilitating this project.
Owners Steve Lipman (The Singin' Dentist) and his wife Shelley love coffee. They also love jazz and the visual arts. So why not all three? 226 Jazz Art Java is Windsor's only gallery style coffee house with a jazzy flair!
Come in for a cup of our freshly brewed, locally roasted, organic and fair trade coffee and don't forget to say hi to our manager Toni. She and our team of Baristas will make you a fabulous espresso or gourmet arctic drinks. Our iced coffee is cold brewed so it's always smooth and delicious. We offer locally baked goodies (many are allergen and gluten free! Just ask.)
As you enjoy your food, you'll savor the beautiful artwork from locally and nationally known artists. Most of our artwork is available for sale. We also offer smaller pieces along with original art cards for the perfect gift.
Of course, there's always jazz playing in the background but if you're in the mood for some live music go to our live music listing at 226jazz.inticketing.com. Concerts are every other Saturday evening at 7:00.

As part of overall health and wellbeing, it is important that children maintain a healthy weight. Currently, one in five Hampshire children in Year R are categorised as either overweight or obese. Learn more about the Hampshire Healthy Weights Strategy and the work which underpins it by visiting the website below.
Your Opinion Counts
When your child is suffering from one of the common childhood illnesses eg a fever, rattly chest, runny nose, diarrhoea & vomiting, rash, urine infection; we would like to know what health services you use and how you think they could be improved.
Sometimes it is confusing to understand which services to use and when, and sometimes parents may choose to visit their A&E department or call 999 for an ambulance – when actually, if more local services were available, their child could have been looked after in the comfort of their own home.
The Wessex Healthier Together project has been set up to review how urgent paediatric care could be better delivered to children (aged under 5years) in Hampshire, Dorset & Wiltshire areas; and part of the process is to listen to the views of parents and carers.
Your thoughts are very important and we would be grateful if you could take 5mins to complete the survey for Parent/Carer/Guardians at: http://www.healthiertogetherwessex.nhs.uk/surveys/

"A masterpiece indeed"
I have now listened to the Aeneid for a second time and only recently realized the captivating poetry and power of this masterpiece.
Virgil writes line by line that paints a vivid picture of his story.
This story honored Rome and Romans of his day and I wonder if we have a Virgil for our day.
The reader Charlton Griffin is simply wonderful and makes the book "go".
"A valuable classic for children and parents"
The Secret Garden is truly a classic, written more than a hundred years ago. I think all young people and their parents should read or listen to this book and be familiar with the author?s philosophical points, which are: what you think is what you are, and will become if you are not careful; that one can examine one?s own character flaws and correct them so that life is better; and that positive thoughts and feelings bring the best result. The grandest point is that working this ?magic? with self and others can create unintended good effects a thousand miles away.
I believe the story and the points of view of Mary and Colin are important talking points between adults and children. They could be watchwords between parents and their children all the way to 18 years of age when discussing personal behavior. The reason is that Mary and Colin are objective and can be discussed as a third party instead of blame and shame between a parent and child. In the book, adults and children were polite to each other, at the last even under stress.
Is it not odd that you want a child to listen to this book and be influenced by it; and that you let a child watch smash-mouth cartoons Saturday morning and hope they will not be influenced by the astonishing violence and shallow characterizations?
I thoroughly enjoyed this Book for the Heart even though I am an adult. It is a classic on a par with Alice and Wonderland, which is another book I really like.
The reading of The Secret Garden was wonderfully done, though the sound of the characters Mary and Colin sounded authentic but made my ears arch sometimes.

I hope mom can take me shopping on Friday (she hates having to stand in line for so long)…I have some money to spend from the craft shows. I just got my LB order so I can also do some beading…YAY!!!!! Nice black pick!!! I love the tourmilated quartz.
very pretty pick!
Thanks Little Chick…have fun if you go shopping on Friday…if not, enjoy your new beads!
Thanks Sarah!
I will!!!!
You bet!!! There's no way I'm going out there!!!! LOL…………… PERFECT pick, my Sparkly friend!!!!
Thanks Anita…I'm not going out there either…I like Christmas and I like shopping…but not on Black Friday!
I'll probably shop on Cyber Monday and stay warm & dry. No parking hassles either!
Happy Thanksgiving Funny Chick!
You GOT IT!!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU TOO!!! Partner!!
Actually, come to think of it, my new beads will probably already be made into necklaces/bracelets/earrings by Friday!!!!!!! LOL
Today I've been so busy working on schoolwork that I don't even have to do yet…I figured it will help make next week easier!!!! So I can't wait to bead tonight!!!!!
wow, little chick…you work fast! enjoy the beading! I know you will!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving too!
You know me too well!!!
I certainly will!!! I hope you do too!!!!!!
I'm off from work, Friday – and hope to see you Chicks right here!…and if I get too chatty, remind me to push away the laptop and get to beading!
I hear ya chickies, I'm not going near a shopping plaza, no way no how. People get too crazy, maybe from all the coffee they drink just to wake up an shop. I think everyone will get a bottle of wine with a bracelet or necklace or some other kind of craft I can make. I have to work but that's only cooking then I'm home for good. I've been trying to catch up with beading lately.
Sound like fantastic gifts, Steph!
Wonderful gifts Steph! Thoughtful too!
I would rather take a beating than go to Wallymart on Black Friday!
Ooooooh, beautiful! I love this pick!
You couldnt pay me to go out shopping on Friday, but the pick is fabulous. Think I'll do my shopping online w/ lima bead in my PJ's!
This is a new way for me to shop LOL on line in pj's. My husband says he's going to go to at least one big one before he passes, so I have know idea how he thinks he can walk around a big mall when it is 15 days before his back surgery and he cannot walk through the Walmart store now even. Don't know what I am going to do with him after the surgery. Morphine and percoset make him halucinate. He's getting to be a cantankerous old fart over the last few months, but I know how he hurts.
This is a classy black pick.
Am I the only one who's going to take the risk to go shopping on Friday????? LOL
Nicole, you are young & brave!
Very pretty love .I am going out there staying home and bead getting ready for my craft show Dec 5&6.
Good for you Alice! I have a show those same 2 days. Best of luck!!!!
I worked retail way to long and have front line experience with Black Friday shoppers!!! I absolutely have no plans to get out and about! All my shopping is done online when possible and then I will make the rest, and venture out in a week or so for the hard to buy for folks on my list.
Beautiful pick…very classy!!! Up here in Canada, we don't have a Black Friday (thank heavens) but there are a lot of people brave the crowds Boxing Day. I did that only once…never again. Like Leigh, I've worked in retail way too long and I think it's ridiculous that people can't rest and enjoy their Boxing day!
Miss Faith, sorry to hear your husband has back problems…it must be awful for him (and you)! I know about the cantankerous old fart …my hubby has breathing problems. I hope his surgery goes well!
Thank you Elaine. I wasn't on here much yesterday so I didn't bounce over to see the comments. I just wish it was over. Dec 11th cannot come too soon for me.
Debbi, what a fabulous pick! I've only shopped on Black Friday once — never again!!! This is the time of year when I don't even like to go to the store for toothpaste — the lines are WAY too long for me and the crowds are CRAZY!!! LOL Maybe I'll venture out to the mall sometime in January 2010…..
Thanks! I actually went to CVS on Friday for haircolor. No lines.
Haircolor..should have called this Gray Friday!
I have to go to the mall tomorrow. Yuk!
I'm with you Sparkle Chick….got my hair color and will be stylin' and profilin' on Wednesday…getting another cut on Tues….SHORT ….maybe I'll change my foto….
You Chickies are cracking me up!!! LOL

its legal unless your in a camp ground that does not allow firearms. i personally always carry when i go camping for saftey and to shoot for fun.
No Bells.No Whistles.Just perfection.
Not sure about your local laws. I usually keep my ccw on me. You should check with local Leo and fish and game. You don't want to get hit for hunting without a license or anything.
I don't need No stinking signature.
Camping is no different than any other place or time. A 5" 1911 is on my right hip except at work, since I do need the paycheck. Places that don't allow me to enter with my weapon are places I don't visit. OK, if I have to go to the hospital due to a life threatening injury or disease, I guess I'll just have to take my chances without the 1911. But other than that.................
A law was passed in my state Indiana allowing you to carry in state Parks which was illegal before now.
The Appalachian Trail runs from Georgia to Maine. Could you maybe be just a TAD more specific?
Some of it is in National Parks, much of it on private property. Some is in gun friendly states, some not.
When I do stretches of the AT in Virginia, I carry a sidearm. I have a CCW and can legally do that even in National Parks (a lot of the AT in VA in in Shenandoah National Park). The shotgun you may have an issue with, since no hunting is permitted in a National Park, and the Rangers DO have a problem with poachers.
BTW, my biggest concern on at AT is predators with 2 legs, not 4.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.

Painting on glass?
I have a very nice hummingbird feeder that needs a touch up on the paint. What paint will stick to glass? Can regular craft paint be used and maybe sealed?
Well, I got a glass 1 from nursery & no birds came as ports didn't have flowers around them, That part was plastic & I used Patio paint & put yellow flowers around each hole so hole was center of flower. That worked well. Glass part had some red on it so I didn't do anything. But I took a class in glass painting & the paints can be gotten at Joanne's or Michaels. FolkArt Enamels have an "E" on top of the 2 oz bottles,actually by Plaid. But you either have to put glass in oven for couple of hours or let the glass set for 30 days so it is permanent. Go to Plaid website & I think they would tell you how long the glass would have to be in oven. I made a mug decorated with roses for hot tea so just let it sit 30 days. Think when you turn oven off you just let it sit overnight until cool & then can use next day.www.plaidonline.com is their site & I think would locate store near you also. Jan

All Points West
Can an indie music-and-art festival founded in the desert near Palm Springs thrive in the land of Bruce Springsteen? The organizers of the annual Coachella festival think so. Their All Points West festival is set to take place at New Jersey's historic Liberty State Park. British rockers Radiohead and Mali-born Afro-blues duo Amadou & Mariam, among others, will perform against the backdrop of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty.
Congratulations to Mei Lin, winner of Top Chef Season 12.

Date of Stay: July, 2014 - $32.00
The cost per night includes the $10 SURPRISE access fee. Electric only for $22; PLUS $10/day or $35 yearly State park Access Pass. (This was a surprise that had us considering leaving and eating the 1st nights charge) Water and dump station are on site. There is a nice boat launch and lake for boating or kayaking with lots of wildlife. The main shower house was nice and pretty clean. The restrooms scattered among the loops are block out-houses. The sites are generous. Trees blocked my sat dish but some local channels were available using the antennae. We had minimal cell and data with Verizon. We hear AT&T worked better. Nice park if want seclusion; we'll look elsewhere next time and file this under "been there; done that". We camped at Governor Thompson State Park in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: May, 2012 - $20.00
We camped here the first week this new state campground opened so keep that in mind as you read this. While this new state campground certainly has potential, it's currently unfinished. The dump station wasn't operable and you had to haul your trash out. In addition, the 3-mile road into the campground is gravel that creates an incredible amount of dust and kicks up stones onto any tow vehicle. However, I'm told that over the next year all these things will be fixed + an additional 50 campsites are being added. This state campground is located near some great fishing and boating areas and the local is beautiful. Just keep in mind that it's a diamond in the rough.
