What Type of Hair Brush Should I Use for Healthy Hair?
 |
| Flat hairbrush (Photo credit: Wikipedia) |
So from this article I learned that a boar bristle hair brush will pull oil and dirt from my hair. Because the brush has the oil and dirt on it, it needs shampooed daily. It would be best to have 2 brushes to allow time for the brush to dry after being washed. Also, the boar brush has rounded tips which will be gentle on the scalp and stimulate blood to come to the hair follicles.

FreeShipping.com - SCAM or Deal?
FreeShipping.com - SCAM or Deal? Not a good deal.
PROBLEM #2 – “Free Trial Membership”. FreeShipping.com has a big promotion for it’s “free trial membership” which leads you to believe that for 30 days straight you will have full access to 100% of the membership benefits without being charged a penny. The TRUTH is that while you do have “access” to the membership benefits during the 30 day period, you are unable to “qualify” for any rebates. If you do not extend your free 30-day trial to a full membership and pay the yearly membership fee, your shipping costs accumulated during the free trial are invalid for rebates; meaning you can use the program as much as you’d like but unless you pay the $80 you won’t get a penny back!

Hatchet/Newbery Summer - Gary Paulsen - Google Books
 |
| Cover of Hatchet |
I finished the book Hatchet. I really enjoyed it. I liked how he learned to be patient. He found a survival kit and he wasn't sure he liked the ease of doing things it gave him. He was able to accomplish almost impossible things because he didn't have tools beyond his hatchet and he was alone and had to do it for himself to survive. It is good to be in a community, but sometimes we tend to think we cannot do things by ourselves since we can go get help, and then we don't learn that amazing feeling of accomplishing things by ourselves.

pixel based - GIMP, paint.net,
vector based - allows scaling, Logos (need big and small version), inkscape.org
Why did the Lord tell the Brother of Jared to put a hole in the top and the bottom of the barge?
Cool idea of how it probably worked!

John Adams: Reluctant Patriot of the Revolution: Leonard Falkner: Books
Amazon.com: John Adams: Reluctant Patriot of the Revolution (9780135100738): Leonard Falkner: Books
I read this in July 2012. I really enjoyed the book. John Adams had much integrity. He avoided a war with France because it was the right thing to do, even though that is not what the people wanted. He defended a British officer, even though everyone was very upset with the British. He did it because it was the right thing to do.

Walt Disney by Marie Hammondtree Chapter "Walt Creates a Mouse"
Disney created a lot of movies about a rabbit named Oswald. He lost the rights to Oswald because he had not clearly read his contract. So he started new movies about a mouse. His wife said that Mortimer Mouse was not good and suggested Mickey Mouse.
This is the first Mickey Mouse movie.
"Plane Crazy" 1928 Sound Cartoon
2nd Mickey Mouse Movie
On the 3rd Mickey Mouse movie they had developed a way to have the sound on the film. It took a lot of work to get the recording just right so it wouldn't blow the tubes on the sound, but they finally created Steamboat Willie.
Later Disney made the Three Little Pigs. It was his first cartoon to have color.
Then he made a cartoon, The Old Mill, that used a new technique to make it look more 3 dimensional. He won an academy award for the film.
For making Snow White, he was given a special Oscar with 7 little Oscars, one for each of the 7 Dwarfs.
