Scholarships

Filed under:Other — posted by Tom on October 20, 2007 @ 8:50 am

Who does not need money for college? Most of all of us do, and tracking down where to get that money is time consuming and very frustrating. How many times have you heard a student say, “If only there was a list…”

There is! A constantly updated online database of sources of grants and locations and requirements of scholarships. Now you can easily find the funding you need to get into the university you have been applying to.

Never before has it been this simple. A lot of these sources would never have been found, and now it is held in one location, not one or two listings, but a comprehensive and complete resource for the university hopeful.

Among those listed is theBill Gates foundation. A proud supporter of education.

the best part is access to the searchable database is free!

Gitmo Underwear

Filed under:Controversial — posted by Tom on @ 8:45 am

If you have been following the news, you will recall the underwear that was smuggled into the Gitmo jail in Cuba, the famous military prison where they keep terror suspects.

The military had suspected the British human rights lawyers for brining in the clothing. The british referred to the accusation as “patently absurd”.

The military has told reporters, the case is closed.  Yet, there is no resolution. to me is sounds like a political “Back off!”. Someone sniffed around, and was too close to something and so was told to knock it off, and close the case, but that is just my guess work.

US military says the underwear case sounds funny, but that the material was strong and someone could hang themselves, and thats not funny.

GPS for Cars

Filed under:Other — posted by Tom on @ 8:27 am

There are a few good uses for a GPS tracking system. One fantastic use is that of fleet management. you have the ability to see any of your vehicles, where they are, how fast they are traveling and in what direction. You can find cabbies who are going all over the place, drivers who are wasting time. You will always know where your drivers are, and this causes them to be more productive, giving your better work results and positively affecting your bottom line.

A more personal use would be to always know where your family vehicle is. If your car gets stolen, you can bet the thief will be caught and the car recovered in a very short time frame. This brings peace of mind, another peace is given by the fact that you will always know where the loved ones in your car are. your 16 year old daughter will be where she said she was going to be, and you need not worry about your wife being stranded in some remote place, as you can go to her if she were stranded because you can see that. No one will get lost now!

Ban on Executions?

Filed under:Ethics — posted by Tom on @ 8:16 am

Since the Kentucky man on Death Row put his point in to the Supreme Court, Kentucky has put a stay on his and other executions.

Several other states have done the same thing. So now people are thinking that theres a moratorium, that all states must halt executions. That it is somehow enforceable.

This is not the case, it is simply that some states have the wisdom to be patient, and see what the ruling is as it coems down from on high from The Supreme Court.

I think we will not see a “de facto ban” on executions. Many people are waiting to see what the Supreme Court says, but because of the depth of the issue, and the gravity of it, they may deliberate for a time.

Waterproofing

Filed under:Other — posted by Tom on @ 7:58 am

The rains in North America the last week have been torrential. Some real downpours have left some of us scrambling to get the water off our basement floors. If you got basement leaks you got some problems, which might just be bigger than you think.

Water can further damage your foundation, which is what your house is sitting on, basically, if your foundation goes, your house will soon follow. Now, a house is a large investment for 99% of the world, so I know you wanna get that leak dealt with as soon as possible.

Another huge issue with leaky basements is the direct water damage they cause the our property that we inevitably store in the basement. Not one of us wants to go through a box one day to find the baby’s first photo album has water damage. Try as we might, these things will get damaged.

Mold loves moisture, our lungs do not like mold. It will cause difficulty in breathing, and ten times the difficulty if you are asthmatic. If you are allergic the problems will be complicated.

SO if you have a leak, nip it in the bud before it becomes a major issue. New York basement waterproofing companies can assist you in ridding your home of this problem. I suggest you do.
