[Link] | All sorts of pageants are so superficial and idiotic. They rely on perfect appearances and flawed perspective on vanity/ego.

Beauty is only skin-deep....or not. Perception.
I saw these awesome Dove beauty campaign films.
Pro Age
These women were beautiful at their age.
Evolution of Beauty
This second film showed how ordinary people are transformed into what we see in magazines, on the billboards, and in tv ads. It's amazing and no wonder people have a false sense of beauty.

[Link] | I came across this article:
( Saudi women lobby king for driving right )
In a country where women must conceal themselves in so many ways and be given very little trust, men don't know how to handle themselves. How is exposing an eye or a tiny bit of skin tempting to a man? Jeez. Personally, I believe male Saudis have become so accustomed to all this control and power their egos are too big now. Since these taboos are so deeply ingrained in those men's (and boys') minds, they will naturally flip if some woman tried something contrary to tradition. If you go look at a country or beach where nudity is the norm, you won't see any man walking around sporting an erection and drooling after naked women. The point is, get used to seeing skin and it won't be an issue.

[Link] | My brother is here to help pack and drive my stuff back to NH and I am moving Thursday night. I really don't want to move, but there's nothing at WPSD. Well, they offered me an applied studies position, but I know I wouldn't work well with students with emotional/behavior problems on a daily basis for most of the year. I really prefer subjects like math and science; I told them I would teach history (both history teachers retired) but they got two other people--one of whom has basic signing skills. I thought they would open up another math/science position for the new middle school, but nope. They even closed the math/science position for the upper school when the teacher retired.
I love Pittsburgh (though, I really hate the detours and construction right now). I could come back here, but we will see. I am going to miss my friend Scott. He's pretty much the only real friend I have here; my other friends are who I know at WPSD, on my softball team, at Walmart, etc. I don't bond with any of them like I do with Scott. I do have feelings for him but I know it's not going to work with the situation that's going on with him. For now, I am focusing on our friendship :)
It's so frustrating trying to shadow shoplifters at Walmart. I know two girls did steal hair dye and shampoos and stuff, but I didn't see them put the stuff in one girl's bag. Nothing I could do about those girls. Though, I did make one guy yesterday nervous enough to drop the four CDs he had in his hand. One small achievement against shoplifters :P There was another guy who had something (phone accessory, who knows) who wandered through my department, but I made him nervous as well and he left my department. I don't know if he did eventually drop it or steal it somewhere else in the store. Shoplifters suck nasty ass.
At this point I am feeling a little sad. Moving, not having lost weight after all those years here in PA, not getting the job I wanted, etc. I guess I do have a few things to look forward to: seeing my family, refreshing my priorities, and seeing my goddaughter (not yet official, but soon).
My goddaughter, Audrey, is so cute in a lethal way :P

[Link] | DIANA, PAY YOUR DAMN DEBT!! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR DAMN DEBT COLLECTORS CALLING ME AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN LOOKING FOR YOU AND WASTING MY TIME!!
I have called each of them (Discover Card, T-Mobile, Arrow Financial Services, etc.) over the past three years to let them know you don't live here anymore.
Good thing I will be moving in August and not taking my phone number with me. Unfortunately, whoever gets assigned with that number won't be lucky. So, spare us both and get on top of your debt and change the contact information.

[Link] | I found this neat AIDS awareness animated video clip. Though, it's not work safe to view at work, because it contains sex scenes.
( video clip here )
This next video clip promotes tescicular cancer awareness. Again, not work safe unless your boss has no problem with you viewing fake balls while at work.

Non-American video clips are funnier and more open :)

It's the parents' fault the kids got hurt. The parents should have taught their children the basics of internet safety. You can't blame MySpace; all it did was provide a medium for individuals to play around with. Teens are naive and gullible unless taught how to protect themselves on the internet and to recognize potential dangers.

Stole this from luvkitten
You know you're from New Hampshire if:
-You anxiously look forward to an annual pig roast.
-your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a tractor on a town road.
-Vacation means going to the White Mountains or Hermit Island for the weekend.
-You know every police officer in town by their first name
-You measure distance in hours.
-"Wicked" is a staple part of your vocabulary
- You know several people who have hit moose/deer more than once.
- You walk into a hardware store and someone offers you assistance, but they don't actually work there.
- The local Icecream stand is closed from September through May.
-You go out of state and don't understand what "sales tax" means on your receipt.
-You refer to the Patriots and Red Sox as "we."
-Your grandparents drive at 65 mph through 3 feet of snow during a raging blizzard, without flinching. They have a plow on the front of their truck anyways.
-You own something 'Carhartt'
-You have worn wool socks and sandals/birks at one point.
-You find 10 degrees "a little chilly".
-You design your kids halloween costumes to fit over a snowsuit- yes there is sometimes snow on Halloween.
-You see people wearing hunting clothes at social events and no one cares. At least they left the deer urine at home.
-You install security lights on your house and garage yet leave them both unlocked. You never lock your car either.
-As a kid, there was more then a foot of snow on the ground and you still had to listen to the radio to see if school was cancelled.
-You can tell if someone is from Mass. simply by their driving. Massholes!
-You know what "booning" or "mudding" is, and do it on a regular basis. Everybody has tire chains in the bed of their truck, right?
-School has been canceled not due to a snow storm, but because the diesel in the buses and cars are frozen.
-You can visit Berlin, New London, Bethlehem, Lisbon, Lebanon and Dublin all in one afternoon.
-You think of the major food groups as moose/deer meat, beer, fish, and blueberries.
-You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend/wife/ five year old knows how to use them.
-While driving, you wave to people because you recognize their car or license plate.
-You have "tabs" at local stores and bars, that you pay only monthly.
- You don't have to dial an area code to call your friends.
-You leave the town dump with more then you came with.
- A mechanic is only a last resort if none of your friends or family can fix the problem.
- You know who Fritz Weatherbee is, and you think hes a douchebag.
-You frequently clean grease off your outdoor grill so the bears won't prowl around on your deck.
-You know which leaves make good toilet paper
- You have a "for the record" or "police log" section in your town newspaper, and you read it religiously- you probably know at least half ofthe people listed.
-There are four, empty, unlocked trucks running in the parking lot at the convenience store at any given time.
-The 4 seasons are Black fly/Mosquito, tourist/leafpeepers, ski, & mud.
- When you ask where someone is and they answer "the bar" or "the store" you know right where they are.

[Link] | This is my second week working at Walmart now, and today, I had some fun tracking a shoplifter. She was walking all over the place, yakking on her phone, looking through things, and there were four of us associates and a manager tracking her. I followed her back to the Toy Department (my area) and lost her near the Health Department. Eventually, she had gone to the area in between the cash registers and the photo area/customer service/bathroom to stuff some things in bags that she swiped from the bagging carousel and took off.
Unfortunately, I was a doofus. I went down an aisle so I can get another angle at her, and I when I looked at where I last saw her, I realized she was right behind me. *headdesk*
Hopefully, I will be improving my anti-shoplifting skills ;)

[Link] | Any of you guys think dabbing at my ex-roommate's bleach stains with tea bags would work at covering them up?
(the carpet is actually very light tan/beige)
There used to be smaller dark purple spots from her hair dye as well, but I was able to cut them out with a seam ripper. The bleach stains are too large and deep, though. There isn't a scrap piece of carpet to use to replace this corner.
Yeah, it's been a couple years since she left (yay!) but I haven't gotten around to fixing these stains. If I have to move next June, I don't want to be shafted with paying to replace the carpet because of the stupid bleach stains I didn't make. Also got shafted out of a week's rent since the ex-roommate stayed a week past her planned move out date and also some other small amounts.
I still don't understand why someone would use bleach to clean up stains on a carpet....
