A Brief History Belonging To The Stun Gun

Anyone who laughed through this summer's hit movie, "The Devil Wears Prada," knows that clothes can, indeed, the woman make. If Andy Sachs' transformation from journalist neophyte into couture fashionista was not enough, surely the svelte fiftysomething profile of Miranda Priestly (played by Meryl Streep) along with her perfectly coiffed white hair, beautifully-shaped eyebrows and colored matching stockings got your attention.



In some cases, such as the path of 'professional' careers such as being a lawyer or doctor, this is obvious. But in others it might not be. For instance, how does one the most advanced computational fluid dynamics modeling service was developed at MIT? How about a film director? A real estate developer or entrepreneur? There are many fascinating and exciting career choices that don't have an obvious path and it's best to do your 'homework' to figure out that path now when you're just starting out so you don't go in the wrong direction.

While most of us cannot afford to pay off our house in a hurry, let alone all at once, there are several steps you can take to put yourself in a safer position. The first and most obvious is live within your means. If you don't have an extra fifty bucks to go out to dinner, then don't put in on the Visa. Stay home. I know this is hard for some, but it is a step that will make a huge difference. Don't spend what you don't have.

Obama just called for a "new generation" of nuclear power plants to be built in the United States and has requested billion in his budget to get them started.

Another form of ocean energy is called tidal energy. When tides comes into the shore, they can be trapped in reservoirs behind dams. Then when the tide drops, the water behind the dam can be let out just like in a regular hydroelectric power generation. In order for this to work well, you need large increases in tides. An increase of at least 16 feet between low tide to high tide is needed. There are only a few places where this tide change occurs around the earth. Some power plants are already operating using this idea. One plant in France makes enough energy from tides to power 240,000 homes.

The Hulk wasn't always green and he didn't always weigh over a thousand pounds. He can seem scary but a fun birthday party theme for kids. In fact, the Hulk normally weighs about 140 pounds and is an incredibly intelligent man by the name of Bruce Banner - that is, unless he is angry. These trivia game facts and TV history can be incorporated into a party game.
