I believe it is rated MA, and if not it should
be. As for reading the series for Twilight, once I started I could not put it down. With the first book, the first 7 chapters are slow, but if you get past that you are hooked.
I think Dyson is rated well unless
you have pets. None of the bagless ones are great for pet hair, and Dyson is bagless. I believe the Kenmore Progressive rated well. I have one, and it worked well when it was new, but it is currently broken 2 ways. It is the cannister type, and cannister types supposedly have great suction. My parents paid a lot more for their Electrolux, and my Progressive rates higher. Maybe I'm just rough on vacuums, LOL. But at least you can roll the wheels over the cord without stripping it down to the wires like on my previous Kenmore, LOL.
They are highly rated, and I just got some, but
my sister claims that Avon has a product that actually has higher amounts of the same active ingredients and is supposedly better. I don't know which is better, but I know that some of the highest priced products don't rate well at all.
I think Faith Hill is over-rated
I never did get the big buzz about her. If she weren't married to Tim no one would have ever heard of her. She's an opportunist and looks like a gawky dodo bird. I'm glad she finally got busted for being the insincere phony she truly is.
Sleep is over-rated. LOL. I am lucky if
x
I am glad Revlon rated well.
Seems like they focused on red colors. Was red linked to lead? Because I think red pottery glaze used to be a culprit for lead.

I'm surprised Burt's Bees had any, although at least it wasn't in the higher category. That company was just sold, so the new owners will have to deal with it.
If I had answered with my first thought, X-rated back
but would be off this board so I will say after my bath this morning just put on some Lubriderm as my skin tends to be very dry.
Poll time - should a 12-17-year-old have adult language CDs and R-rated movies...sm
bought for them?  My husband & I disagree on this.  Our 15-year-old daughter wants a DVD from a rock group that has the adult language warnings on them and I don't want them to have any of them, but he doesn't see a problem with it.  He says she can hear language like that at school but I don't think a kid should own it to listen to the foul mouthed stuff at their own leisure.  What do you think?
I am not criticizing an individual here...

but I am criticizing a mentality.  Look at our public school system and the product it puts out.  Why is 98% quality required of us to hold our jobs but not our educators? 


"U.S. fourth-graders are about on par with their international counterparts, but by the time they get to the 12th grade, they are in the lower 10% of the industrialized world in terms of math and science competency. This is something you wouldn't tolerate in any other situation. We fire football coaches after the first year of a losing record, but we continue to let the public school system take children and basically degrade them on a relative basis to their international counterparts."

I don't, but there are individual state
boards too, see State Boards right under Word Help.
It is pretty individual sm

I had the same August 29 of last year.  I was working on my second day home (not a full shift, but a couple of hours), taking all my vitamins, water and food with no problems since day one and following all of my doctor's orders.  I had minor pain, but mostly relieved with Tylenol after three days or so. 


Then I see people who said they couldn't work for six weeks, even at a desk job, couldn't eat a thing and went to the hospital after four days for dehydration because they couldn't stomach more than five ounces of water a day.


Good luck and speedy recovery.


No, you don't. That is up to individual jurisdictions. Very few, if any, do that.
Just a TV/movie thing.
That is for the individual and his/her parents to...

decide.  Let's wait for the facts in this particular case.


You're right - it's up to the individual.
.
It is a matter of the individual.
For you, this might work whereas for others, it might not. My husband and I shared equally in the housework and raising of our children. It is a very individual thing and as long as it is a choice and not because "that's the way it should be", then of course it will work. We are all very different.
I buy little individual cans of OJ all the
time and they are in the frig quite a whiel before we drink them. Don't know why it wouldn't be as long, as poster said below, the expiration date has not come and gone.
Look at the individual school systems
nm
well you are indeed lucky, my individual is 130 bi weekly
highway robbery. I really wish they would just make Medicaid available to anyone that wants it.
Individual health policies

Individual health insurance policies are a lot harder to get.  There is a lot more underwriting on them than there is on a group plan - it's why the group plan premiums are larger.  They have to take anyone that is a member of the group.


I was denied because I had been previously diagnosed with a low thyroid.  If you're overweight you probably will be denied.  If you previously have been diagnosed with almost anything, but especially high blood pressure, any sort of endocrine problem like thyroid or diabetes, chances are it will be difficult to get it.


If you want to go that route, your best bet would be to go to an actual agent that sells life insurance.  When it's an agent who is dealing with the company alot of times they can talk to the underwriters and the company and get it pushed through, which you can't do when you're just doing it online.


An Individual Education Plan (or Program)

No. A free thinker, an individual, my own person.

But this is not a school-wide accepted teaching practice, it is individual (nm)

4th of July plans?
What is everyone planning on doing for the 4th?  We will do the typical: cookout with family but this year we are trying some new receipes like turkey burgers and ostrich burgers, and then we will either set of a few fireworks or go to the park to see the professional fireworks.  Either way just really going to enjoy my family even if it rains.
Plans for the weekend?
Anyone have any fun plans for the weekend?  We have no big plans...may do some clothes shopping for the kids if I feel like it. 
Weekend Plans
It's my husband's birthday Saturday so we're going out to dinner with friends. It's supposed to be a hot weekend so we'll spend much of the time in the pool with our daughters. We also usually have bonfires on the weekends with the neighbors/friends and/or a cookout since the weather is so beautiful.
Weekend Plans
Saturday we're going to the Zoo. One of the elephants is having a 40th birthday party celebration there. And Sunday the family's driving about an hour away to go visit my parents.
Weekend plans
We're going to finish school shopping and then on Sunday we're going back to the NYS Fair to see the American Idol concert and Monday probably a cookout with our friends.
Ask her how she plans to pay for his tickets
Some ego she's got to think her kid's graduation is so important that other families need to inconvenience themselves for it.  I suppose she expects a gift on top of the 2 grand?  Tell her to pay for the tickets and I bet her tune will change quickly!
Valentine's plans?
Well, I just got my son a few things off e bay for webkinz (secret codes intact), got my husband a coupon book to put in a card (the ones that say the "special" things to do that he can redeem, you know those). So, I'm done for valentine day.  Otherwise, can't stand the idea of the day. Here I am crabbing again, like around Christmas.  Valentine's day and New Year's Eve, waste of time to me.  The only thing I like about Valentine's day are the sales on candy the day after to stock up for Easter LOL (not the obvious hearts, but you know).  Anybody doing anything good or have plans for that day, or do you all feel like me "greeting card holiday."
Do you have plans for Valentines Day?
Do you do anything special for Valentines Day? If so, what sort of things do you do for your spouse/SO? Do you buy gifts? cards? Cook for him/her? What sort of things does your honey do for you?

I usually make something, sometimes a meal, and sometimes just some kind of special dessert, and I always get him a card. He's soooo hard to buy gifts for so I don't usually get a gift for him.

Most times DH takes me out to dinner. He always gives me a card, and sometimes a gift. In the past it has been anything from a box of candy and stuffed bear, to a diamond necklace. He's a very romantic person, much more than I am!
Plans for the Summer
One of the weeks in July my daughter's friend is coming up from Florida to spend the week. We plan on going on day trips to a water park, the beach, ect. Hopefully in late July or August our family and our best friends' family are going to go to the Jersey Shore or Maine (we haven't decided yet). We had planned on a bigger vacation to Florida, Mexico or a cruise, but the money held us back this year.
Easter Plans
Going to my parents an hour away as usual. We're having pork roast and all the trimmings. Unfortunately, a sad time too. My aunt passed away this past week and my cousins are bringing her back for burial the day after Easter.
Plans vary according to where you live...sm
check your local paper for ads. You need to figure out how much you'd use a phone and use that for shopping the networks. You can also check with your phone company and cable company as sometimes they have special pricing available with a cell phone carrier that can save you $5-10 a month. Be sure to read the small print. For example, Verizon advertises you can get up to 4 free phones with an account; however, the "mice print" states that there's a 2 year commitment for each phone that is purchased. Therefore you might end up paying for the additional service that you wouldn't use if you have kids close to moving out on their own.

Good luck!
do not make plans with her again; if she asks why,

Does any one know of any prescription assistance plans? sm

I need help with paying for medication that my husband needs that costs $150 a month and of course insurance isn't covering it.  I know that Walmart has the $4 prescription plan for generic medications, but his medicine doesn't come in the generic form.  Are there any other programs out there to help us?


Thanks


Because he is making vacation plans
with a guy, not his wife. That sounds like a guy who has no interest in vacationing with his wife. A man's wife should always be who he thinks of when he thinks of vacation. Not that he can never take a trip or vacation without her, but he should take his thoughts to her, not just announce it as if she is just the help.

Something is very wrong here.

Vacation plans finalized...sm
Friend and I finalized plans to go to Maine for vacation in the summer and Disney World near Christmas.  Have never been to Maine, so I am very excited about that.  Disney is more for my friend, but since I usually only get to see her once a year, I am really excited about that trip, too. 
Not make definite plans ....
Third grandbaby is due any day.
It makes it hard to have other plans, but drama is

She's only a teenager once, and there's only one spring drama performance?  How many weeks could this last?  I wouldn't sweat it too much.  We love to go "up-to-bat" for our children, but we need to pick our battles.  If she is a teenager, you do not want to give the impression that you are not supportive.  We found the same thing happening with baseball practice for our son last year, so we just planned on the "not knowing".  He'll only play baseball for a few months, and then it's over :(  Hang in there, she'll be driving herself soon...  YIKES!  I don't even want to think about that.  Be glad she's involved in drama and not "other things".....  if you know what I mean...   Good luck on the performance. I'm sure she'll make you proud! 


keep suggestions, ideas, plans out of her ear range.

Even tho it is 6 weeks in advance you had already made your plans sm
and your parents need to honor them.  Either they go with you, stay at your place alone for a few hours or they stay at their own house and come another time.  Holidays are all about traditions - if they change the rules they need to be able to ride out the wave.

My Boyfriend and I made our vacation plans last night
My Boyfriend and I made our vacation plans last night, we decided to go to a local beach (well, its 4hrs away) but have decided to make it a romantic one (close your eyes sis) So instead of spending money on gas and cheap hotels on our first vacation plan (minnesota) we decided to spend the money by going somewhere local on nice hotel rooms. One room offers a Romantic package which includes Bubble bath, Champaine (we don't drink, but one day wont hurt us) and a few other stuff to pamper yourself's with. My family and I used to go to this beach/town every summer and I haven't been there in a few years so I am really looking foward to going, plus he has never been there before so it will be really fun showing him where to go and where to eat.

Ok, here is the hard part. We are going to the beach..which we try to go at least once a month (our usual spot is 2hrs away) but this time it's different, we will be spending 2 weeks there and I want to be able to wear a bathing suit (or at least shorts and a tanktop).....so I need to get my butt into shape....This is where all of you come in (if you are willing to help) I need advice, inspiration, tips, reciepes, workout tips, prayers anything that will help me lose weight! Our trip is in August and I want to lose 50lbs I realize that's a short amount of time and a lot of weight so I am making a mini goal of 30lbs.

Any exciting plans for the upcoming holiday weekend? nm

ask how long she plans to stay as you need help cleaning out the attic or some
yuck job...

maybe?
"selfish jerk", as you call him, AGREED to help, DESPITE his plans.
