Evil Gray Squirrel Half Mount Attached to a Small Wooden Plaque

29 January, 2009 08:02

"A GRAY SQUIRREL HALF MOUNT ATTACHED TO A SMALL WOODEN PLAQUE.

SQUIRREL IS HOLDING HIS RIFLE AND SPORTING HIS MILITARY HELMET.

DESIGNED TO BE HUNG ON WALL. INCLUDES HANGER ON BACK.

WOULD MAKE A GREAT GIFT.

WE HAVE FIVE OF THESE AVAILABLE. THE PLAQUES, GUNS, AND HELMETS ARE ALL IDENTICAL; AND WHILE ALL THE SQUIRRELS ARE GRAY SQUIRRELS, THEY MAY HAVE VERY SLIGHT DIFFERENCES IN COLORING, ETC." - [ebay.com]

collective action to clean parks, preparing meals, organizing blood drives, and much more: Give back to your community on January 19th, 2009

14 January, 2009 13:32

Renew America Together

"On Monday, January 19th, wherever you are, will you host or participate in an event in your own community? Thousands of people are going to be cleaning parks, preparing meals, organizing blood drives and much more. Will you be a part of giving back to your community on January 19th?"

Martin Luther King, Jr. recognized the power of service to strengthen communities and create common purpose. On the day that honors him - Monday, January 19th - Rock the Vote is joining forces with the Presidential Inaugural Committee to hold a national day of service.

"Last year, you showed the world the power of young people taking collective action, organizing voter registration drives and turning out to the polls in record numbers. On Monday, let’s usher in a new president with community service and celebration to kick off a year of positive social change."

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I cannot volunteer on Monday, January 19, 2009. Is there another way for me to serve?

Q: Can only organizations host events?
 
A: Absolutely not. Anyone, from a national or local organization to an individual volunteer can host an event. All you have to do to register an event is to follow the easy three step process on this website. To get started please visit the USAservice.org homepage.

Q: What is the latest a person or organization can host an event?

Random Thought : I have just moved once again. I think I will find a nice park in this area and take along a couple of garbage bags...

1   Take the carrier and multiply by the percentage you would want to use. Example: 5 lb of carrier oil - needing to add 2% of an essential oil, convert 5 lbs to 80 oz ( 5lbs x 16oz = 80 oz) and then multiply 80 oz by .02 (2%) which gives you 1.6 oz. Alternatively: you can multiply oz x 30 to get ml (or cc). So 1.6 oz x 30 = 48 ml or 48 cc.

2   Temperature and Storage

  • Keep caps tightly closed when not in use.

  • Do not store in direct sunlight.

  • Avoid exposure to high heat and light for prolonged periods.

  • Store at normal room temperature.

  • Take a periodic (now is good) inventory of your oils and rotate and use what is getting older.

  • Use your oils! It isn’t the one who dies with the most oils that wins, it’s the one who uses the most oils that lives.
