Online Fad

Contributed by Milford Woods

All of my friends have been telling me I should get on Pinterest, but I am resisting. I know it’s the newest online fad, but I have looked around the site on some of my friends’ accounts, and I don’t think it’s that great. Most people pin stuff that I am not even interested in. How many fashion trends and recipes do I need to look at on a daily basis? I know it would be nice to have something to do when I am bored, but do I really need a new online obsession? One of my friends has clear wireless and she carries her computer everywhere just so she can check out what other people are pinning. I think she takes it too far. Sometimes when we meet to hang out she doesn’t even pay attention to me. I am already on Facebook more than I would like to admit. I also like to read a lot of blogs, and I am just not sure that I can take on another online hobby. When will I have time for anything else?

More Than HGTV

Guest post from: Jerald Hammond

When HGTV first aired many years ago, who knew it would be such a popular network? I’ve watched it for years and enjoyed many of the shows and specials. Because I enjoyed it so much I never really looked at what else was on, at least not about similar topics. Recently I upgraded my service through www.giveadish.com and while on the site noticed advertisements not only for other home improvement type networks like DIY but a whole host of shows on networks not home related. For example, A&E has a whole list of shows that are home related. I never would have thought to look to that network for this type of programming. It makes me wonder what I’ve been missing! I guess I need to take the time to take a good look at the program guide and not skip networks that I assume don’t have programming to interest me or start doing some research online to see what else is out there!

CMA Awards

Guest post of the week by Val Flores

Born and raised in the South, it is no surprise that I am a huge fan of country music. There is nothing that will brighten your mood more than a great country song filled with positive messaging and an upbeat tempo. When on a long drive, I find myself always finding the local country music station on the radio and signing along as loud as my voice can go. I always wonder if people think I am crazy as they pass by, but it helps to pass the time. Last week one of my favorite events was on TV, the Country Music Awards. Luckily, I have http://www.expertsatellite.com/direct-tv/direct-tv-ann-arbor-michigan.html packages at home and was able to tape the awards so that I can watch my favorite performances over and over again. My favorite country band at the moment is the Zac BrownBand. I simply cannot listen to their music enough! I recently saw them live in concert and I am amazed that they actually sound better in person than on the TV or the radio. Their performance at the CMA Awards was simply perfection. I am a sucker for any awards show and make a point to tape all of them, but there is something about the CMA Awards that will always be my favorite!

Mentally preparing myself for the World War Z movie

Guest post written by Kelsey Garrison

I've read both of Max Brooks's books about zombies and I'm a huge fan of his. I even went and saw him speak about it one time and he was so funny! Well, when I heard that they were going to make a movie of World War Z, I got really excited. But I've definitely been more skeptic about it lately because I'm afraid that they're not going to accurately portray the book like I'd like for them to. I guess that's a concern of a lot of the fans for this and just for when any book gets made into a movie.

I've been checking up every so often with my Dallas wireless internet to see what movie bloggers are saying about the movie now. I do have quite a bit of hope for hte movie. I think that people are just so worried about it because it's taking so long for them to actually make it.

At first I wasn't sure about Brad Pitt being cast in the World War Z movie but I do have hope in him and am curious to see him fending off zombies.

Coming up with some new outfits for this semester

Guest post written by Cathy Streamer

One of the best parts about being a teacher is all of the influence that you can have on kids that may not have great influencers at home. Well, I work really hard to be a great example of an adult that's law-abiding, nice, educated and stylish. You remember those teachers that were always nice to you and I want to be remembered by some kids like that too. But then again I also remember the teachers that would always wear the really horrible outfits and I used to take pity of them having to wear things like that. I even thought that they required teachers wear those ugly outfits. I don't want to make that kind of impression on kids.

I was looking online to find some really good fashion deals for this semester and while I was looking through some things on clearance, I came across the site internet.CLEAR.com. After I looked through it some, I decided to change over my home internet service to one of the packages on there.

I think that I have some really cute outfits put together for this school year. I made a few jewelry purchases and I think those are really snazzing up my old outfits.

Growing my own organic food

Guest post written by Lucy Black

I've been eating organic food for a few years and I have to say that I really think that it makes a difference. I can taste the difference at least, so I'm sure that it is making a health difference for me. I've always been a big gardener with flowers, but I thought that it might be really fun to grow my own veggies. So now I've started growing my own organic veggies in my backyard.

I looked online to do some research about what kind of materials I would need in order to grow my organic veggies. While I was doing that bit of research, I ran across the site CLEARWIREWIMAX4g.com. After I looked through it some I decided to sign up for one of the internet packages that I saw on there for my home.
So far my organic tomato gardening is going really well. The ones that I have grown have been so delicious. i eat a lot of tomatoes during the summer anyway, but I've had an even better excuse this summer!

There are valuable resources to also help fund your educational dream such as WaldenU.edu. And through places like WaldenU.edu, anybody can work their way up to finishing a degree at the comfort of his or her time and resources.

Chance favors the prepared mind.

They say the foundation of a good career is good education. It is indeed a plus factor in advancing to your job career but not necessarily everything it takes to be successful. Hard work and devotion play a big role in any career success. There are many people who finished a degree but later on switched careers which gave them more opportunity and advancement. Some people are lucky enough to have everything all set for them to finish a degree which can later on be used for their future but not all has the same opportunity as others.

More Than Just A Scrub

Hospitals have changed their  architectural make-up to appear like hotels with matching colors that are vibrant, outdating the gloomy and all-white appearance. Such change is to give the patients’ the hopeful touch, a happier disposition that can lead to faster recuperation. The hospital atmosphere should be complimented by medical uniforms by the very people who are in constant interaction with patients as well as the relatives who are equally exhausted.

The multiple colors of the hospital personnels’ medical scrubs give an array of light-heartedness, not just for the patients but even to the person wearing it because the person’s moods are affected by the colors and designs of the attire he carries. A medical scrub in light material equipped with pockets make job easier for the pockets can contain the nitty-gritty of tools for easy handling. Medical personnel wearing  light-colored scrubs  do not appear as “monsters” especially to children and deviate the patients’ conventional outlook of hospital confinement.
