			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My daughter has a friend from school that had gotten another one of the girls from her school pregnant and had just found this news out about a week ago. They were apparently dating for several months until she said she wanted to go on a different road then him, and then found out she was pregnant not too long after. I can only imagine what this child is going through, because from what I have heard, her mother had just gotten out of the Air Force a few months ago and seems to be very strict. Her father is also in the Air force and won&#8217;t be returning home to his family until September.</p>
<p>Well this young girl has been living with her grandparents since her parents had left for the Air Force and has apparently been getting into all kinds of trouble since then. She had told my daughter that she is going to refuse to put the baby up for adoption and is completely against abortions and has no idea on what to do. I can&#8217;t imagine what her parents are going to say when they find out, and I hope for the best for this girl, she had always been a good friend to my daughter, and hoping it stays that way. I just hope she finds a solution and/or an option that suits her and that her parents will agree with.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve heard much about the <a href=" http://www.waldenu.edu/Degree-Programs.htm">Walden University&#8217;s online degree programs </a>that are helping so many people get their degrees which ultimately enables them to make the &#8220;big&#8221; bucks. In these past few darken years of being stuck right smack dab in a major Depression the &#8220;big&#8221; bucks is what we are all striving for. In order to<a href="http://learn.waldenu.edu"> learn about Walden </a>I spent some time checking them out online, I found that at <a href="http://www.waldenu.edu">WaldenU.edu</a> that they have a very intensive website that took some time for me to absorb. You gotta remember, I just barely made it out of High School. College was never really in the picture for me, back in those days. All my mother wanted me to do was to become a secretary and marry the rich boss, she never really got over the fact that I ended up in the food and beverage industry, a bar wench.</p>
<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m thinking of getting into the Social Services field since I have a good heart and know how to talk and deal with people. I think that I am a compassionate human being that enjoys assisting people in any way that I can, been known to literally give the shirt off of my back to some one that needs it more than I do. Anyone that is dealing with people in need most definitely require a HUGE dose of compassion and unfortunately what I have found from personal experience and from thousands of horror stories that I have heard from friends, family and my bar customers, is that the majority of these &#8220;professionals&#8221; are seriously lacking any type of compassion along with a lot of other qualifications that I think are necessary for this type of career. I think anyone that chooses a career (any career really) should enjoy it to a certain extent and not in it just for the money.</p>
<p>I like to think that I help a lot of people while tending the bar, but the tip jar is rarely flowing over from them all. Knowing that I could be doing the same thing and was guarenteed to go home on payday with a sum that would not only pay the rent on a house of my own as well as the utilities, insurance premiums, taxes, and keep gas, oil and decent tires on the car, well it would be awsome. But at the end of the day if I look in the mirror and like what I see because of what I have done for somebody that day that really effected their lives that day well that is just be the ultimate high.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My girlfriend just finished a two year technical school program so that she can be a medical assistant. They had their graduation last night and she invited me to come, since her mother lives so far away and couldn&#8217;t make it up here for the ceremony. I was delighted to go &#8211; it was not boring at all. I found it rather inspiring to see all the young people -and a few older ones, as well &#8211; lined up in graduation robes and hats to get their diplomas. It was an honor to be invited.</p>
<p>One thing I never realized is that the people in the doctors offices have to buy their own scrubs, lab coats and nursing uniforms. I don&#8217;t know why, but I guess I always assumed that the doctor&#8217;s office and hospitals provided those for the employees. Most of the other industries that I know of that require employees to wear uniforms provide them to the employees. But I guess with the medical industry they cannot afford to provide uniforms for everyone. Just keeping up with a huge wardrobe in all those different sizes would be a nightmare.</p>
<p>My girlfriend says that she will <a title="scrubs" href="http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/" target="_blank">buy medical scrubs online</a> to not only save money but to get some new colors, prints and styles that are not easily found in the local uniform stores.</p>
<p>Check out <a title="scrubs" href="http://www.blueskyscrubs.com" target="_blank">http://www.blueskyscrubs.com</a> if you want to see a great selection of scrubs at very good prices. This is where my girlfriend shops.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Written by Sonny Quinn</p>
<p>New homes are easy to come by in this market, so many of my clients are younger than ever before. These younger generation buyers don’t always know the best things to ask at closings so I do my best to lead them through the process effectively. Sometimes they ask me questions I don’t know the answer to especially since I’m a bit older, so recently when someone asked me about mobile internet I had to defer the question to a college. I hated that feeling so that night I went online and got some <a href="http://www.wirelessinternet.net/">MORE INFO</a> for my own reference. The next time anyone asks me anything about wimax or broadband or 4G I’m going to be ready! From what I learned, this kind of internet sounds like a really good solution for a lot of homebuyers and I’m even considering ordering it myself. I like to be as prepared as possible since my business is my creditability. There’s nothing worse than a real estate agent that knows less about the industry than you do!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This morning I was channel surfing, not much on on a Saturday morning unless you are into cartoons and other kiddie shows. So I ended up watching some programs on MTV that I normally wouldn&#8217;t consider watching. Like &#8220;16 and Pregnant&#8221; and &#8220;The Things I Did When I Was 17&#8243; both are hard core Reality Shows, which I normally don&#8217;t enjoy watching, other than &#8220;Survivor&#8221; on CBS.</p>
<p>Anyway, I have to say that these MTV shows weren&#8217;t as bad as I first thought and I found myself getting interested and watching more than I would have normally watched and stayed in bed a few hours longer than normally on a Saturday morning. I could get used to that!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love how the Internet brings so much to us from all around the world. It is fun having a bird&#8217;s eye view into other people&#8217;s lives and their countries. I prefer to visit other english speaking countries like the UK and Australia, but thanks to sites that translate it makes it possible to read and learn from sites in France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. I try and stay away from sites that are in Japanese, Chinese and other Asian languages, they are just to difficult and tend to give me a head ache, and I don&#8217;t need any more head aches than what my own country gives me. LOL!</p>
<p>I like how they have shopping guides and directories, like what ShopWiki has to offer in many countries that are interesting and very helpful for many. If you get a chance, give them a look see and see what they have to offer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My sister-in-law, Linda, is enjoying her new job in a near by and very busy pediatric doctor&#8217;s practice, that she went back to school and worked so hard to achieve. She is such an upbeat and happy person, who has the perfect personality to be working with kids day in and day out, along with the other people working in this large and still ever growing kid friendly medical practice.</p>
<p>One thing that she was concerned about was the issue of having to wear a uniform to work each day.  Linda is a total fashion and accessories freak and has more clothes then one woman would ever need in her life time and would be miserable having to wear only uniforms at work. So she was happy to find that the other woman working there have turned her onto a great website that offers a a nice variety of scrub clothing that they have been ordering from lately and are thrilled with the quality of their products as well as their prices. Since Linda is so busy with her new full time job and still has the kids and my brother to deal with, shopping online is very appealing to her.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so happy that she has found a great new career with some nice people and I wish her all the luck in the world. I also look forward to hearing some funny and entertaining stories that I&#8217;m sure she will come up with in time about the people and the place that she is now spending so much of her time with.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I heard on the radio that YouTube isn&#8217;t even 5 years old yet. It will be in November though. It seems like it has been around for much longer than that. It certainly has made a major impact on millions of people. You can access such a variety of user-generated video content, including movie clips, TV clips, and music videos, as well as amateur content such as video blogging along with short original videos. And all of this is free, you just gotta love that.</p>
<p>Once I discovered all that you can experience on YouTube.com and started composing my &#8220;Favorites&#8221; list, it didn&#8217;t take long to get up to triple digits which can be time consuming and a good amount of them are stating that they aren&#8217;t available any longer, that really bites. But all in all YouTube.com is awesome and I can&#8217;t imagine computer life without it there, along for the ride.</p>
<p>I have a good friend Donna who moved over to the U.K. years ago. We keep in constant contact with emails, Face Book, IMing and cell phones, I&#8217;m so grateful for all of today&#8217;s technology that is making it easier to keep in touch with so many people in so many ways, it is so enriching all the way around.</p>
<p>Anyway Donna on occasion will send me a picture or a joke along with her emails, but she has never sent me a video before and we decided that it was time to try and attempt it. So she went onto YouTube.com and found this video featuring Digby Jones and got it to me with the first try. It can be a bit overwhelming learning some things on the computer, especially when you are on your own and have no one close by to ask for help. She lost her husband over 5 years ago and is still on her own, but she is doing pretty well all things considered.</p>
