Powerline Or Gator? Hmm…

The Florida Power & Light while working at Orlando International Airport found an interesting type of “power line”. As the crew was putting in lines for an addition to the OIA they found the following in a culvert they were using…

And some friends that were hanging with…

The gator measured 18′ 2″ long and the rattlesnake roundup totaled 87. Just a day at work in the Sunshine State! FP&L, thanks for sharing.

Storms and Tornadoes Strike Oklahoma

A tornado ripped through a 20-block swath of Picher late Saturday afternoon, killing at least seven people. The same storm system then moved into southwest Missouri where tornadoes took the lives of at least 12 others, authorities said.” Full Article…

FoxNews reports on the bizarre storms and tornadoes that caused excessive damage, and up to 20 deaths while ripping through the city of Picher, Oklahoma. Highway Patrol Lt. George Brown said Picher’s victims included an infant.

Some blame Global Warming, while others claim the prophecies of the Bible are coming true. While the argument is settled, what will we do against the obviously unavoidable forces of nature that have begun to claim more than just land and property: lives, including a defenseless infant. Technology at it’s peak and we can’t be warned beforehand? The anomalies will continue and still no answers. Any comments?

Graduating? The Best Companies To Get Your Start

As an online student at Penn State Universities World Campus in Information Sciences & Technology, finding the best companies that offer opportunities to those in my graduating position is very important. Many graduates end up, sadly, having to work in jobs that have nothing to do with their career goals until they get their “big break”. But, thanks to Lindsey Gredes a young staff editor and writer for Business Week, we have a full list of companies that are giving fresh graduates the “big break” they seek. The list has been updated accordingly by Ms. Gredes and you will find the full articles here…

Smallville is Rocking my Thursday nights!

Clark looking as if he could fly!

“This reinterpretation of the Superman franchise features a teenage Clark Kent struggling to come to grips with his emerging superpowers in Kansas. He must hide his abilities from Lana Lang, the girl of his dreams and from his friend Lex Luthor, who will one day become Superman’s nemesis. Complicating matters is the presence of kryptonite throughout Smallville, which causes strange mutations in locals and cripples Clark. David Nutter (”The X-Files”) is among the executive producers of the action/adventure drama.” More info…

I am absolutely in love with Smallville! Who knows, maybe I’m one of the many that won’t admit they wish Superman truly existed. But, one thing is obvious; the cast is hot, the story line keeps getting better, and we the fans can’t wait to see Clark flying! More cool stuff…

Work from Home is Possible

Work-at-Home!!! Internet!! Money!! Scams have been around as long as the internet itself. So, what can old fogies and the not too clever do? First of all, continue to read this article. Second, become knowledgeable. Knowledge is power.

The way our daily lives are being forged by the ever advancing world of technology, we need a heads up and now. Most of us have worked many years in brick buildings, with cubicles as walls of separation, and have shed tears every time we got our paycheck. But, I have news for you! You can work from home, at home, from your laptop, anywhere you want! The internet may not be your cup of tea, but if you’re anything like me, you like advancement, and do not accept being left behind.

I will be 31 this year and most of you are thinking, “What?! She’s still young!” The problem is: I’m not. According to the statistics involving the ever growing amount of on-campus and online college graduates that will be coming into the workforce arena between 2009 and 2010, I am pretty much an over-aged and high-maintenance employee that needs replacing. The replacement will be younger, faster, and will accept a minimal salary for their contributions. Unlike, the most of us; it’s the reality and it must be faced.

So, I am not the young, sassy girl that I used to be but I have lots more to offer. What to do now? This is where the ability to make money and work from home comes in. I’ve been researching, for the past year, and found many channels for this great, flexible, and accessible opportunity. I have a 3 year old, and honestly, I wanted to stay home with her (I wasn’t able to with my eldest). Wanting to stay home and the need for money became my obsession. Now, I want to share the best sites, companies, and resources with you because I’ve been there and done that. And, I’ve been there and done that, again.

*Some advice before I continue to share my treasures: if you are not an expert in something, on a subject, with any particular thing, do not pretend to be. Truthfully speaking, you must be a present or ex-executive, corporate, or have vast experience in the area or career level in the position you are attempting to work from home as. Work at home is not an easy way to overpass education and experience. True work at home will come because of these and will bring about great offers from great companies.

The window of opportunity which has opened for those that fulfill the requirements requested will find that companies are ready to make offers.
