It seems that the Audi Q7 is gaining popularity among tuners lately as tuning packages for the SUV are just piling up. We've already featured the Wide Track by Project Kahn and the Audi Q7 V12 TDI Family Edition by Anderson Germany , and now we have yet another package for the Q7. This time, the package is based on the first generation Q7 and comes from MR Car Design .
Starting with a 2008 model, MR Car Design wanted to obtain the same look as with the new generation Q7. For this, the tuner added new daytime running lights, an LED indicator strip, 22-inch alloy wheels MRGT22 in 9.5 inch width, and Icebear W300 tires. The interior didn't receive as much attention with only a new steering wheel as borrowed from the current Audi RS6 .
The engine's power, however, was given proper treatment with an ECU optimization and a new double-pack K & N air filter. These extra mods bump up the power from a standard 326hp to 374hp. The maximum torque also rises from 760 to 870 Nm. However, there's no word yet as to how these increases will affect the SUV's performance numbers.
Add the entertainment package from Project Kahn's tuning package and we'd be just about sold!

ALEXANDRIA, La. (BP) -- "Football, to play or not to play?" There are, it seems, a growing number of voices who depict the sport as too violent for polite society. Some are even saying it should be banned altogether.
Malcolm Gladwell, bestselling author and writer for The New Yorker, believes football should go the way of the dinosaur. His main argument for doing away with football is the violence and probability of injury, especially trauma to the brain.
Gladwell, in a 2009 column for The New Yorker titled "Offensive Play," compared American football to dog fighting. "In the nineteenth century, dogfighting was widely accepted by the American public," he wrote. "But we no longer find that kind of transaction morally acceptable in a sport."
In a column titled "Our Shaken Faith in Football" at Christianity Today's website, Owen Strachan suggests that Christians rethink not only playing football but also supporting the sport due to its violent nature. In so doing, the professor at Boyce College suggests a comparison between the gladiators of ancient Rome and modern-day football players.
There is no doubt that football is a physically demanding sport with an inherent risk of injury, sometimes even severe injury. It is certainly not for everyone. However, suggestions at regulating or banning football on moral grounds seem a bit melodramatic.
I do feel the need to qualify myself at this point. I am a former high school football player. I also hail from Texas, where schoolboy football is nearly sacred. I earned four varsity letters playing a variety of positions for the Mighty Charging Buffalos of Florence High School.
As a follower of Christ, many activities I pursued prior to my conversion were cast aside because the Bible clearly indicated they were wrong from God's perspective. I see nowhere in the Bible, however, where God condemns athletic competition. In fact, the apostle Paul illustrates some aspects of the Christian faith by alluding to the sports of his day, specifically running, wrestling and even boxing, which was particularly violent and not for the faint of heart.
Since football is nowhere mentioned in the Bible, we must look to principles to give guidance. Writing to Christians in Corinth, Paul indicated that while all things were lawful, not all things were profitable. He also said we should not be mastered by any activity, meaning we should not become obsessed or addicted.
There is no doubt that some in American society certainly seem obsessed with football in general and their favorite team in particular. These are mainly spectators. If your life revolves around football, perhaps it is time to take a step back and evaluate your priories.
Is there anything profitable about football? I would say for those who participate, yes. So long as a person understands its risks and takes the proper safety precautions, there is much to be gained for those who play.
Discipline is an absolute necessity in order to compete on the gridiron. Not only must a football player discipline his body with rigorous conditioning, he also must focus his mind and control his emotions.
The Bible has much to say about one's emotions, particularly anger, for example. "Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty," Proverbs 16:32 states, "and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city." Football involves continuous physical confrontation. If a player does not discipline his emotions, anger is likely to well up and burst forth. However, a player who is out of control emotionally is simply no help to his team.
Learning to deal with hard knocks and pain is imperative for a football player. "Football isn't a contact sport, it's a collision sport," legendary Michigan State coach Duffy Daugherty said. "Dancing is a contact sport."
In football you are going to get hit and you're going to get hurt, but hopefully injury can be avoided. If a player is injured, his body will not respond properly to the game and thus he cannot play. If player has bumps and bruises, well, he just hurts.
I was hurt all the time when I played football, which might have been expected since I was always the smallest player on the field. My fingers were always jammed and a couple were broken a time or two. I had minor issues with a knee and my lower back. I was knocked out once but was not diagnosed with a concussion.
In writing to the Corinthian believers, Paul said he buffeted his body and brought it under control. Since my football playing days ended, I have been metaphorically knocked down quite a bit. However, I long ago learned to play with pain and keep getting back up.
Football is a unique sport in its interdependence. In most sports, an individual can excel while his team fails. In football, each player is dependent on the other positions for individual success. A quarterback's success is dependent on protection by his linemen and sure-handed receivers. An offensive line's good blocking is accentuated by a running back hitting the hole on time. And so it goes. Football is a true team sport.
God inspired the apostle Paul to describe the church, the followers of Christ, as a body. Not everyone has the same gifts or abilities, but each person is interdependent on the whole in order to grow and for the church to reach its potential. Church is the consummate team "sport."
For me football was profitable. I still enjoy watching games, primarily because I played. However, I don't believe I am obsessed. So, as long as one is trained in the proper techniques of the game and understands the risks, I say, "Play on."

Born a Gemini with a Sagittarius Rising, Rebecca has a never-ending supply of energy and is constantly on the search for new and exciting experiences. She is the youngest of six girls in her family and, throughout the years, astrology has given her insight into her sister's personalities and other important people in her life.
Like most Geminis, her immense curiosity and ability to multitask has led her to explore many creative endeavors. After traveling to Egypt, she was inspired by the use of art and symbols within Egyptian tombs and ruins. She decided to do a deep exploration of the zodiac, illustrating each of the signs with lots and lots of detail --highlighting the symbols, characteristics and colors associated with each one. During this project, she read about and discovered the importance for each sign to channel their energy through creativity. Otherwise, it's likely they will become a nuisance to themselves and everyone around them!
Within her blog, "Expressively Yours", Rebecca interprets astrology through her writing and illustrations. She seeks to inspire individuals to create and keep up their motivation.
She currently enjoys life in the San Francisco Bay Area and makes beautifully illustrated zodiac art and custom birth charts. To find out more about her, check out her website, illustrology, or feel free to email her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Recipe by qweenbee53
"Not a strong tasting cheese ball, children even like it."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

3 (8 ounce) packages
cream cheese, softened
green bell pepper, chopped
green onions, minced
1 (8 ounce) can
crushed pineapple with juice
1 tablespoon
seasoning salt
2 cups
finely chopped walnuts
This cheese ball was originally served at a holiday get together I attended. I had to have the recipe.... Substituting Pecans for the walnuts adds a slightly different flavor to the ball. Also, the ball was very creamy and I found that shaping the "ball" into a log easier for serving. Very good with butter-type crackers.
not bad, but not as good as i had anticipated. It looked good (that's why it has 3 stars rather than just 2). The flavour was just a little odd. Probably won't make it again.

I had this recipe at a wedding reception and just had to have it! I drain the pineapple juice -- makes it firmer and not as sweet. My seasoning salt is: 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp Mrs. Dash, and 1-2 tsp garlic and parsley salt. I also don't make a "ball" but more a log shape as another reviewer wrote.
Serbved this at a party recently and it went over very big. I substituted chopped pecans for the walnuts. It is much easier to handle if you make sure to drain the juice from the can of crushed pineapple.
this is the best tasting cheeseball and easiest to make....everyone love it...have been looking for this recipe and finally found it...try it...mild and the flavor is great with any chips...thank you, Linda
My crowd loves cheese balls during the holiday parties. I love trying all the different variations. This one is very good. I would recommend toasting the walnuts, though.This is a sweet/savory version of an old standby.Thank you, Linda.
My husband and I smoke a lot of Salmon and this cheese ball is great on a cracker with a piece of Smoked Salmon on top!
At first glance I was somewhat skeptical of this recipe, along with only the three reviews even though they are positive. I decided to try it at a stagette right before Christmas and it was a hit! It was enjoyed by all.

I've been in search of a product like this for quite some time. Similar products come close to this but they don't match up to the price or the quality. I use it along with the Black Opal concealer. The secret to not looking ashy is to dab and roll. Wiping will only wipe away what you put up under it.

I read some awesome reviews for this and was excited to try it. I got it walmart for about $9, so the price wasn't bad. But after using this after using my sunscreen, it didn't do much on my oily forehead. I was still shiny and greasy looking. I was hoping this would work because carrying a compacts is better than carrying loose powder around. It may work for some, but it was not for me at all

Black Opal Invisible Oil-Blocking Powder is a peachy coloured silica-based setting powder. Because of its colour it is supposed to prevent that ashy look that WOC normally have when they set their makeup with white translucent powders.
This is not the case however, for everyone anyway... If you are NC50 and above you may still get that ashy look going on with this product.
People like to say the ashy look is as a result of using too much, but if you have oil-skin and use a product like the Black Opal True Color stick foundation, for a transfer-proof set one has to use a bit of product especially around the jaw-line.
What I do to reduce the ashy effect is to mix this setting powder with my Black Opal Deluxe Finishing Powder in 04 Dark. This adds some color to the powder and reduces the extra matte finish as well, but it still has a lot of the Oil-Fighting properties of the silica. I recommend that for you ladies that have an issue with this powder.
Also, misting your face with a refresher spray like Mac Fix+ will also get rid of some of the ashiness. And make sure you really buffed off all your excess product.
Though I had to modify it to make it work for me, the price is still right and you get a LOT of product for your money, so that I can't give it a bad rating.

I purchased this powder based on all the rave MUA reviews, after not being able to find a powder to control my oily t-zone.
This stuff is good - perhaps not as amazing as some reviewers have found - but it's better than MAC blot powder and most other blot powders I've tried. Sadly, it doesn't give me more than 4 hours shine-free on my oily t-zone.
Despite the "invisible" claim, I found that this powder does lighten up my foundation a little bit, even though it does have a light coloured tint to it! (To give an idea, I am about NC43 in MAC, or #5 Honey in Bobbi Brown). It sounds like it doesn't cause any problems for fair girls, which is weird because it seems to be designed for ladies much darker than I am! Also, it's a little pink based and as I am very yellow toned, this really shows up on my face.
I have started to apply this underneath my foundation, over my moisturiser, and find that does a pretty good job that way. Still, the oil on my nose starts to break through after about 4-5 hours.
The only issue I have is that the powder is so lovely and light, it does break up a bit when you swipe a brush through the compact. I end up with a lot of powder coming off that needs dusting off, and it can get a bit messy. Sort of defeats the purpose of using pressed powder over loose.
If it didn't change my foundation colour, I would continue to stick with it and just use it to reapply throughout the day. But the more I reapply the worse it looks, so sadly I will probably just stick to blot papers.

Definitely a great replacement for MAC Blot Powder! Like other reviewers, I was a bit worried that this would wash me out due to the lightness of the powder. However, this blended in just fine with my skin (MAC NC 35) and took away any trace of shine/oiliness. I feel like the power of this powder is similar to Blot Powder, perhaps even a bit better. I really like the slimness of the packaging but am not a huge fan of the sponge that comes with this (but that's an easy fix). I'll be purchasing again!

This powder is a wonderful surprise! What a GEM! It's translucent, but to look at the powder in the compact you might be concerned that it won't match your skin. No worries--it matches and IS translucent! I'm an NC30 and this powder looks amazing on my skin. (Not just for WOC!) I'm also freakishly oily (darn genetics!) with olive undertones, and this powder kept me shine-free and looking really good for over 10 hours in heat and humidity! This surpasses my MAC Blot Powder AND Prep n Prime Powder! And looks better! After going through one compact, I bought 3 more online (I can't find it in stores near me). This economy has hit me hard--and this outperforms the expensive powders I thought I couldn't live w/o. I use a good powder brush and use a light hand; it looks seamless over sunscreen, over foundation, or just over bare skin. When I blot (out of habit), there is oil on the paper, yet none of it shows on my face. It's not cakey; it's not too matte. It's perfect for me! I wish I had discovered this before! (Ah... the money I would have saved--while looking BETTER!)

For only 9 bucks this is a steal! Works wayyyy better than MAC blot powder. This does not only mattify skin for hours but also smoothes out skin and blurs imperfections!

I dont find this to be much in the over all effect from the neutral light Deluxe Finishing Powder from the same manufacturer except that this is silica based while the other is talc based. They have the same finish. It does not block oil IMO. It sets makeup nicely but even on my skin, NC44/45, it can come off a bit ashy so I can imagine that darker complexions may have an issue with it. For this reason I rarely use this all over except with a foundation which apples lighter than my skin but I know for a fact will oxidize darker. That way a setting powder will not cause 'orange face'. Neutral light does not have this problem. Having said this. I love this under my eyes and on any highlight area.

So this afternoon i went shopping with a friend and got this powder - the last one, yay! - because of all the raving reviews here. I was going to buy the mac blot powder, but this one was a little cheaper :) (In my country it costs around 15 euro). When i got home, i looked at myself in the mirror and suprise, suprise: My skin was oily! Which was convinient in this case, because i was dying to try this out. The compact looks pretty fancy I must say, it's very sturdy.. Very good to take with you for touch ups. Although I dont think you need to do so as much, because i have applied the powder (on its own) about 5 hours ago and still no oil! Very natural, matte look. It makes my skin look so much better! So i am veeeery happy with this so far, I just hope this doesn't break me out or anything. I will try to remember to update this review in a few weeks! So far id recommend it to my friends.

Wow. Really wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do.
I am a shiny happy person. I don't like to blind people with the glare from my forehead. I do a rolling motion applying with a sponge on my t-zone, leave for as long as it takes to apply mascara, then I brush excess off. 6 hours later and people do not have to squint at me anymore. By the time it comes to the cleanse I have a dewy glow.
This works.

Great compact car for the money. by rickman44 from Toledo on 06/17/2011. Trim: 2009 Kia Rio Base, Owned 2 years.
Pros: Gas mileage, styling.
Cons: no cons
Overall review: This is great little car. gas mileage ranges from 30-40 mpg. Stores more in trunk and backseat than it appears. The stick shift is fun to drive but am getting tired of it so i traded this car in after 2 yrs and bought a 2010 Kia Rio with auto, air cond and power steering. I don't think the automatic gets as good as gas mileage as the stick. The 2009 Kia Rio has been a good all around car for me. I have no complaints. I bought it new. Very satisfied.

Could have done better. by sandy from NY. on 11/27/2010. Trim: 2009 Kia Rio LX, Owned 1 year.
Pros: cost
Cons: Unable to get service in a timely manner. Parts not in stock or not readily available. Starter burned out twice. Still in warranty but does not mean anything without parts even if it is covered financially.
Overall review: Should have got something else. (other then a Korean car.)

Good economical car if it works right. Kia dealer service is not good. by Jim from Petawawa on 05/21/2009. Trim: 2009 Kia Rio LX, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Gas mileage was good at the start. Radio is excellent. Seat heaters are a nice touch. Handles nimbly.
Cons: Rough suspension. Seats are hard. Does not come with Factory Cruise Control. Engine burns oil.
Overall review: Bought car for financial and operational cost reasons. It's rated 47 mpg. First weekend out, it got 44 mpg on a 500 mile trip. Check engine light came on at 2,500 miles. Kia dealer said it was the non-factory installed cruise control (which they installed). Cruise was disconnected and issue appeared solved. Mileage had dropped to 36 mpg by this time. At 3,750 miles, I checked the oil level and it was marking half on the stick. I drove 1,000 miles that weekend. When I got home the engine was making a lot of noise. There was no oil on the dipstick. Tailpipe was covered (inside & out) with carbon (evidence of an engine burning oil). Took the car to my Kia dealership. Their solution: drive 25 miles to us once a week for us to check your oil for you(they said this was the official Kia procedure that had to be followed). They didn't even look at the tailpipe. So far the situation has not been resolved. This is the second Kia Dealer I've visited where I got disgusting service.

A pig gets his nose into some deep trouble in Spartanburg Count after finding a grenade. The pig's owner was worried, but it's not uncommon for people to find ammunition in the area.
Deputies say finding old military explosives near the camp croft area of Spartanburg County is not all that uncommon, but the way this one was found was certainly a first.
These pigs, like any others, enjoy rooting around in the mud, but, yesterday, their snouts caused quite a stir on Jones Road in the Enoree Community. The pigs' owner, Eugene Hunter Jr., says he was feeding the pigs when one of them turned up something he immediately recognized. "I looked down; I saw what seemed to be a grenade, and I was stunned," Hunter says.
Hunter backed away quickly and called 911.
Lieutenant Ashley Harris, a member of the county's Bomb Squad Unit, says the grenade "is a mark two grenade used in World War II." Harris says that it was hard to tell at first if the grenade was live, since it was buried in the dirt.
Even after it was determined the grenade did not contain explosives, it still posed a danger. "Even it's a training grenade, it can still have a blasting cap inside," Harris says. According to Harris, getting calls for old ordinance is actually common.
Discoveries around camp croft are frequent because it used to be a military training area. "A lot of people used to bring these back from their time in the military as souvenirs. We recover these from attics all across Spartanburg County," Harris says. And each time they do, they have to treat the explosive as if it was live.
Hunter says he will also treat any future discoveries his pigs make as real, and he recommends anyone who finds on of these do the same. "It makes me feel nervous because I don't know if I go down and feed the pigs, maybe I'll step on one."

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama pulled in $29.1 million for his re-election campaign and the Democratic Party in January, raising his total for this election cycle to about $250 million.
The sum, announced Friday, shows he's picked up the pace from his $23 million-a-month average of the final three months of last year
According to financial reports and Obama campaign officials, the Obama Victory Fund, a joint venture of his campaign and the Democratic National Committee, raised $13.4 million. Separately, the Obama campaign raised $9.3 million, the DNC raised $6.1 million and an Obama swing state fund raised $384,000.
That fundraising concluded before the campaign's announcement this month that, in a reversal, Obama would embrace the big big-money fundraising groups he once criticized and let them help in his re-election. Those so-called super PACs, financed with large donations from a small group of individuals, have been prominent in the Republican presidential primary and are also poised to spend millions in the general election contest.
The Obama campaign said 98 percent of January donations were $250 or less. Federal Election Commission filings show Obama's campaign alone pulled in more than $5 million in unitemized contributions, usually less than $200 apiece.
Many of those donors, however, are repeat contributors, meaning that their aggregate donations over the past year would exceed $250. Still, the nonpartisan Campaign Finance Institute, which analyzes contributions, found that small donors, those whose aggregate contributions amounted to less than $200, accounted for 48 percent of Obama's campaign income in 2011.
That more than doubles the small donor contributions to his campaign in 2007, as he mounted his first campaign for president. What's more, the institute found that small donors accounted for only 9 percent of 2011 fundraising for Republican Mitt Romney, who is battling for front-runner status in the GOP presidential primary and is the top fundraiser in the Republican contest.
Obama also relies on an extended team of more than 440 supporters who help him raise money, including 61 people who each raised at least half a million dollars. Altogether, those top dollar fundraisers collected at least $75 million last year to help Obama win a second term.
Friday's filings also underscored the national infrastructure that Obama's campaign had in place by the end of key primary elections for his GOP opponents last month, having spent cash nationally for office space, staff salaries and political strategists.
Presidential candidates must submit January fundraising reports to the Federal Election Commission by Monday.
The January numbers were being reported as Obama concluded a three-day swing of California and Washington that included eight fundraisers, most of them high-dollar events. All told, the president was expected to raise more than $8 million during the trip.
Obama repeatedly tells his audiences of donors that this election will be more difficult and encourages them to rekindle the vigor of his supporters in 2008.
"And that's not going to be easy because, first of all, I'm older and I'm grayer," he told about 70 high-dollar contributors in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood Thursday night. "So it's not as new, it's not as trendy to be part of the Obama campaign -- although some of you still have your posters, I'm sure.
"And part of it is we've gone through three tough years and so people want to hope, but they've been worn down by a lot of hardship."

Should employers not hire you or fire you when they discover your bad credit history?
It has been a sad situation for me and many others in the USA (I don't know if this is an issue worldwide) I have great qualifications and work experience. Yet, in the majority of states you are obligated to submit to a criminal background check which is completely understandable, but that also includes a credit check. I understand that a credit check should be mandatory for executive, banking, casinos and industries directly involving money. Sadly, those of us with bad credit are being discriminated for regular jobs i.e. retail, call centers, customer service.
The government, banks and debt collectors wants their money, as they should. Yet, if you have bad credit, it's a lot harder to find a job making it impossible to get out of debt, let alone be a productive citizen.
This is an issue that is not widely discussed, I've searched online and there are some bills being proposed to end this discrimination but I don't think is really going anywhere.
I would like to have the TED community input in the most civil way possible.

Feb 6 2013: Mykle, I can see your dilemma .. and the point in corporations wanting that input. As you stated there are certain jobs where this is a backbreaker ... you left out security risks as this could become a leverage point. However, In other jobs I think it should be a point of discussion ... If you went bankrupt while starting your own firm is certainly different than being a alcholic and gamboler who drank and gamboled away the family fortune. Owing for college loans is another exception as is medical bills.
So I agree there are certain jobs that this is and should be a serious concern and others that it should be of lessor concern .. especially under the right circumstances.
I disagree that the federal or state government should dictate the hiring or firing terms of any institution outside of the said government.
I wish you well. Bob.

Good Morning America took a look at blinged out dorm rooms this week, and I wanted to share the video with you. ( I am having to embed the AOL report on it because I can't embed the GMA video. Here's the link to the full video if you want to see it.) The suite mates add drapes, a chandelier, and custom monograms. They have coordinated linens and a cute little couch.
"Good Morning America" reports on one St. Louis family that spent $2,500 on decorating their daughter's dorm room. The daughter explained why saying, "The more comfortable the environment, the more comfortable you're going to be." The family used Decor2UrDoor, a website where students can find things like shag rugs, couches, wall art, monograms and even chandeliers for their dorm room. "GMA" reports these tricked out dorms are becoming a nationwide trend.
I lived in the dorm all four years. (Make fun if you must but it was stumbling distance to the journalism school and inexpensive.) We had double lofts for our beds and had an old couch and carpet down below. We had TV, and I think a microwave (maybe it was a toaster oven). We didn't change the desks, except with photos. We didn't have any drapes. We didn't have air condition but I thought it was quite comfortable. Could I have been a better student with matching linens? Probably not.
How much are you willing to spend on your college student's dorm room? What are essentials? What are luxuries? What is ridiculous?

In my dorm room, 1969-73, I had a bedspread, cheap metal bookcases, a stereo on which to play my favorite LP's, eventually a castoff rug, and posters that eventually boiled down from 10 (variety of hippie images some in da-glo) to 1 (Desiderata). My senior year I had a rich roommate who brought in a 12″ color TV and a small refrigerator. Everything else came with the room. Occasionally, I was able to sneak my girlfriend up to my room. I did not feel deprived.
September 4th, 2012
6:33 am
Wow. I'm sure I'd go all out decorating and buying little things to make the room fun and comfortable but I'd be shopping at the Goodwill and Target not hiring an interior decorator. Sorry, that's a little over the top to me.
But then again, after these parents spend 3000 dollars on senior prom why not another 2 grand on a dorm room? Wonder how many of these kids and parents are actually paying for college or are they taking out loans and then spending a couple thousand for dorm decor.
September 4th, 2012
6:40 am
In the late 70's – red, white and blue shag carpet I bought at Roses. I had a tv and stereo – my roommate brought the fridge and toaster over. We did have air conditioning and the walls had lots of posters. My parents did put a private phone in my room but I think that was for their benfit more than mine.
My nephew was in the suites at Georgia State. One of the boys parents sent their maid over weekly to clean for them. I just hope they paid her enouugh to clean a dorm room with 4 boys living there.

6:49 am
I was in the dorm for 3 years only (because I graduated after 3 years) but I did get a new set of sheets (extra long) to bring. I also got a study lamp, and I was allowed to bring my stereo . Total cost: less than $30 (1970)
First daughter, 1995, spent ALL SUMMER shopping for the perfect stuff. Spent about $100.
Son, 1999, had to be stopped as he went down the driveway by his sister to come back and get sheets and towels. He had his guitars and sleeping bag, and thought that was all he needed.
Younger daughter, 2003, shopped for a few weeks. Spent about $100 on room items (now, clothes were another matter)

Another example of kids assuming their PARENTS' lifestyle is THEIR lifestyle and living standard.
Same reason why most kids out of college are carrying hundreds of dollars a month in expenses for mobile phone and cable television.
I slowly accumulated college stuff over four years – I bought a 13″ TV my second year, small frig one year, and so on. We lived with a lot of used couches and wal-mart furniture.

We didn't have anything fancy in our dorm rooms. Our beds were like Murphy beds, we could put them up in the wall to creat more space. We had closets and a desk and that was it. They supplied sheets, and every Wednesday we lined up at the laundry and swapped out our sheets.
My oldest went away 3 years ago to college. She spent her entire summer before babysitting, and therefore paid for everything herself to decorate her dorm. She took great care of everything, and now she is using most of that stuff to decorate her first apartment. So proud!!!!
September 4th, 2012
9:10 am
I'm guessing we'll spend a hundred dollars or so next year when the boy goes off to college. We don't have any single or twin beds in our house so we'll have to buy a bedding set at a minimum. I'll probably send old towels with him and buy new ones for the house though. But I'm guessing we'll spend some on odds & ends like a lamp and some organizers (not that they will get used).
Mayhem – Murphy beds and linen service are a great idea for dorm rooms.
September 4th, 2012

I did not watch the video, as it shows no longer available on my computer.
I had a hand me down beadspread, rug, sheets and towels. When I arrived, my room mates and I discussed curtains. I made them from yellow gingham as it was inexpensive. We had an iron and a box fan. No fridge, microwave or TV. We did have a phone in the room and a popcorn popper.
For my own two, we discussed things with the other room mate and his/her parents. Since we knew they would most likely be living in the dorm for only one year, it was pointless to spend lots of money. We may have spent $300. I am not in favor of providing every whim for your children. I believe they need to step up to the plate and work to provide some of their own things. My own two did. My daughter was just talking about how much her car will be worth when she pays it off this year and what kind of payment she might afford when she sells it to get a new one after college.
Some children only dream of going to college and some parents are sending their kids to college with $2500 worth of dorm accessories? When I finished college and we got married…we had $500 in the bank. We lived in a dump of a trailer with no TV. Husband's Grandma gave us her old b/w after 6 months. We put it on big empty box, covered with a table cloth. When we had been married a year and saved up our own $$$ we moved into a little duplex that was newer and we were so proud. We bought an old dishwasher that was portable and had to be rolled over to the sink and hooked up….anyone else remember?
Sometimes I think children today miss the important step of doing without and then being proud when they have accomplished a goal to acquire the things they did not have when they statrted their journey.
Whomever marries the girl whose parents provided $2500.00 for their dorm room will have big shoes to fill. Just my opinion.

@MJG "Whomever marries the girl whose parents provided $2500.00 for their dorm room will have big shoes to fill." I couldn't agree more. My son's girlfriend gets everything handed to her and I'm quite sure she will be "that girl" when she goes to college. She is being raised by her grandparents and both sets of grandparents give her things to make up for her crappy parental situation. I keep thinking, didn't they learn their lesson the first go round (with this girls' mother)??
I told my son that while it's ok to date her in HS, this is not the type of girl he needs to marry or be with long term unless he wants to take care of her forever. She has no idea what it's like to work for anything. They give her money for everything she wants whenever she asks – it's not an allowance that she has to budget. She doesn't even have any chores around the house.
I told him that unfortunately his example of a wife and mother is me and he will be sorely disappointed if he marries someone who expects him to do everything for her! And I'm not just talking about opening doors and basic chivalry.

@ Techmom….for year, I have called this girl a "price tag". I can spot them a mile away. These are girls that cost lots of money to keep happy. Perhaps the parents or grandparents will kick in money forever but IMHO young marrieds have so much adjusting to do, that they do not need either one to be comfortable with getting whatever they desire and not even thinking about the cost. A recipe for financial war.
My daughter had a HS friend who was this way. After a year at college, she had a job and complained that her income did not match the things she wanted. REALLY? I am raising my hand that I still feel that way and I will be 53 soon. Anyone else?
September 4th, 2012
11:21 am
I have no experience with this..Yet…When my two head off to college, they will not get $2500.00 spent on decorating rooms..Heck, other than my furniture, I haven't spent that much on my bedroom..
I have a coworker that has a daughter (senior in college) and she doesn't have to work..Her Mom sends her a package every week of clothes, shoes or stuff for her dorm…They spend no less than $500.00 each year on Halloween stuff to decorate her apt. Yep, $500.00..After all, it's the girls favorite holiday..:)
@Techmom..That girl was my cousin in high school..Daddy gave her everything..Even after she married up until the day her Dad passed away..Needless to say, she's not a very happy person..
September 4th, 2012
11:23 am
My sister in law is a "Price tag".
She laid down the law when she married my brother in law. She doesn't work, she doesn't cook, nor does she do housework. She has not worked a day in their marriage, She does not cook, they go out every night, her oven has never been used. If he isn't home from work by 5:30, she will take the kids out, and he's on his own for dinner. She has a housekeeper. My nieces have never been seen in the same outfit twice. She doesn't do laundry, just goes and buys new clothes for her and the girls. but never anything for him, again, he's on his own with clothing.
Now, he's miserable, stuck with 2 young kids, who are future "price tags". He works 6 days a week. He comes over to our house OFTEN for a good home cooked meal…..Bless his heart.

We spent about $300 on the dorm getting my freshman situated. That includes linens, towels, bathroom rug, snacks, and other stuff. My daughter also worked all summer and was able to save money to buy the incidental, or things that I deemed unnecessary.
FYI Parents: If you have a student heading off next year, now is the time to go out shopping for the XL twin sheets. After the initial rush of all parents looking for them for their freshman, they are now on sale. Dillards has several sets left, at 50% off. Also, when looking next year for the "cute" XL Twin comforter set, compare the size of a full size comforter to the XL twin, for some kids using the full size works fine.
September 4th, 2012
11:53 am
Yikes. I think we bought maybe some sheets and a comforter when I headed off to college in '97. My roommate and I rented a mini-fridge and a microwave. I took my CD player, and roommate brought in a beat-up futon from her parents' basement. We eventually inherited an area rug second-hand, but the rest of the room was decorated with concert posters, Christmas lights, etc. Oh, and the obligatory sticky stars on the ceiling. Nowhere near $2500 was spent. Yikes!
September 4th, 2012
11:54 am
@campbell'smom…excellent advice! Also…IMHO do not buy all those cute storage bins to lug things into the dorm. Once you get there, you will have to empty them and lug them home as there simply is no room. I suggest going to Costco and picking up the sturdy boxes they discard. They are perfect for hauling things and then you can toss them when finished. You will need some storage containers but not a dozen, if you are in a small dorm room.
@mayhem…they ARE out there, aren't they?
September 4th, 2012
12:06 pm
I despise these types of stories that focus on wealthy people and the things they buy, but pass them off as if they are just "regular kids" from "regular families". Clearly, MOST people can not afford nor would they care to waste so much money on dorm room decorations that will be vomited on and trashed come Saturday night. MOST people have more common sense.
Besides, I think college should not only be about education, it should also be about stretching yourself and getting out of your element to experience life and who you want to be… not live in the womb that your parents buy for you. I'm sure if Wealthy parents are going to this length to make sure baby girl is comforatable, they are "assisting" her in many other ways and she will never grow up.
September 4th, 2012
12:14 pm
Who says they are "wealthy"? I've known numerous people who are not wealthy, and they sacrifice other things for themselves, so their children can have EVERYTHING.
Not me. I was raised with the motto "you will appreciate it more if you buy it yourself".
September 4th, 2012
12:29 pm
@Mayhem..Yep. that is my coworker..She moved make home with her Mom after her Dad passed away..The house was paid for..So in order for her daughter to go to college, they took out a second mortgage on it..Yet, as I said before, they are always buying the girl stuff and sending it to her..Then she lost her Hope funding and they remortgaged the house again, so hope that she gets a good job to hope pay all of it back…
September 4th, 2012
12:46 pm
We spent about $300 dollars per dorm room last year. Found a deal with mini frig, microwave, and Keurig coffee maker for less than $200, then added bed linens, towels, and snacks. Roommates provided drapes, rug, futon, TV and printer to share, in return for our providing kitchen appliances. Room and board was insanely expensive – moving off campus this year was significantly cheaper for both my kids. No way would we have paid for the overpriced dorm design companies to do the rooms.
September 4th, 2012
12:51 pm
@ Warrior…we have found off campus housing to be a much better deal too. Ours both moved out their second year.
September 4th, 2012
1:14 pm
@Becky…she's not paying it all back! If she was the kind of girl to pay it all back she wouldn't have let them do it in the first place. She would have gotten a job before she told them she lost the HOPE, or at least, tried to apply for a loan. I was very blessed in that I had a full scholarship but trust and know, my parents would not have mortgaged their home (well Daddy's home since Mama left when I was in college) for me to go to school. 1. I would have had to go to state school and 2. I would have had to live in whatever lifestyle they and I could have afforded. Period. Did they extend themselves (too much?) for my brother when he was in college? I think so but then again I'm bitter because he got a whole bunch of stuff I know I wouldn't have gotten since my mother felt bad because she divorced Daddy and left him to live with Daddy…like she should have. But that's beyond the point. LOL!
I have a friend that was a "price tag"/"mortgage note"…her father bought her a big diamond ring and told her not to marry a man who couldn't give her a ring bigger.
September 4th, 2012
1:18 pm
@ Sarah, I have to agree with Mayhem. The wealthy people I know do not buy their kids everything. The people I can see spending thousands of dollars on their high school and college kids for frivolous items are over the limits on their credit cards, have second mortgages and just always seem to find the money until they file for bankruptcy and start all over. All depends on one's definition of wealth. You don't have to be wealthy to acquire things.
September 4th, 2012
1:53 pm
@homeschooler…we say this all the time to our two: just because it looks like they have things…those things may not be paid for.
We have always tried to live within our means. My daughter is frugal and knows how to budget…not too common for 20 year old girls around here. She also knows how to cook delicious meals…REALLY not common and much appreciated at our house, when she is home. She still has her HOPE scholarship but works part time year round too.
September 4th, 2012
1:59 pm
As with all things, I will spend as much as I deem necessary, next question…
September 4th, 2012
2:08 pm
@Denise..I know that she won't be paying it back..Her Mommy doesn't expect her to..Yes, the girl is 22 and calls her Mom, Mommy…Once the daughter is out of college, she will move back home with her Mommy and Grandmother and they will all live there with the cats and dogs..Funny that she lost the Hope funding, because she only has 2 classes every other day and one class a couple a days per week, plus she's in band and that's the reason her Mommy doesn't want her to work, so that she can spend more time studying..
You would just have to meet them, to understand..I mean, my coworker calls home 3-4 times per day just to talk to the cat..Yes, she calls home and her Mom holds the phone up to the cat and coworker talks to the cat…And good lord help us if the cat gets out of the hosue and into the yard. my coworker goes home to find it..:)

In looking at the rates for dorms, it seems that the actual dorm fees aren't that bad considering it includes utilities but then you add in a meal plan and it becomes outrageous.
September 4th, 2012
2:17 pm
@Becky – does this lady's boss know she does this? I don't think I could keep my mouth shut if I heard her talking to her cats on the phone.
Our agreement with our son is that we will help with college IF he keeps HOPE and he has a part-time job. I don't want him to have to graduate with student loans but I'm not going to hand him everything. We've been telling him for years there is no "college fund" b/c we're spending it on tuition right now.
September 4th, 2012
2:22 pm
Calling home to talk to CATS? That is the weirdest thing I've heard all day. I thought you were going to say she called her daughter several times a day. My relationship with my mother doesn't allow for that but some people have that kind of connection. (In a way I'm jealous.) But cats? Negative.
September 4th, 2012

I talk to my mother twice a week. She would kill me if I called her numerous times a day, every day. But then again, she raised me to be independent, not co-dependent…my neighbor talks to her mom at least 5 times a day.
My sister in law calls her daughter, who is in college, at least 4 times a day, every day.
September 4th, 2012
2:47 pm
I had no air conditioning.
No phone except one pay phone (to call my parents once a week) and one campus phone (to nervously call the girls' dorms) in phone booths down the hall.
En suite bathroom? Not a chance. There was a gang shower in the bathroom down the hall, with the cold wind blowing though open outside doors when I went out with my towel and soap before dawn on frosty winter mornings.
We didn't know to expect more.
And I doubt there has ever been a happier time in my life.

When I moved out my parents were 6 hours away so yeah I called them several times a day, almost everyday for years. I really miss those calls now that they are gone.
I never lived in a dorm but I paid for pretty much everything in my apartment. I worked and went to school. Still, my parents sent me lots of things or stored them up for my visits home. It was just what they did.
September 4th, 2012
2:55 pm
I can't remember exactly how much I spent to outfit my kids' dorms. They both had suites with full kitchens, so pots and pans and dishes, etc needed to be bought. I started about a year before they went and bought stuff on sale, my son's dishes cost $6 a set. I bought a set of pots and pans for my daughter at Penney's for $40 after the rebate, and she is still using them 4 years after graduation. Drapes and stuff – NO WAY!
They also had bathrooms (his was private, hers was shared with 1 other), so we needed shower curtains, etc. $5 from Ross.
I bought my son the ugliest striped towels for $3 each at a closeout store. I figured that since they were so distinctive that they wouldn't get mixed up with the roommates' stuff.
I sent them each off with a homemade quilt for that extra little hug from mom.

@Techmom..Oh yes, our boss does know that..The boss will come in with paperwork and my coworker will be talking on her cell phone..So the boss will stand there and wait..Not only that, but we have had lots of customers tell the owner that she talks to them like they are babies, she says no, but when she's on the phone with her Mom, don or daughter, she is always talking baby talk..
@Techmom, Denise and Mayhen..She does talk to her daughter about 6-7 times per day..Between talking to her Mom, son and daughter, she receives/calls about 15-20 calls per day..Her daughter calls her any time a guy walks by and says hi, or anytime a guy holds a door open for her, or to tell her Mommy what color shirt she's wearing each morning..The daughter is 4 hrs away in college and every time that she comes home, she has to call her Mommy every 2nd exit so that Mommy knows that she is safe..When she makes a bathroom stop, she has to call her Mommy and tell her what exit number she gets off at and what type of gas station it is, just in case she is missing..If she stops to eat, she has to give detailed info on what she ate, like what type of bread, did you have mayo on it? What song are you listening to? On and on..Yes, it's enough to drive a person crazy..

Becky, I don't know how to stay sane in that job.
September 4th, 2012
3:32 pm
Sent my only child off to college on 8/17. Her dorm room must have set me back about $375 (including her tv). I don't understand he needed to lavish those rooms with all the comforts if they were home. College life is the beginning to learn how to fend for yourself with a little help from your parents. Life is not cushy. You want a plush dorm room, go make the money and make it happen. My child's dorm room is a pretty red, white and black complete with full size bed, lamp, garbage can, pictures, cork board, calendar, nice desk all the things needed for dorm living.

Becky – in my office, our bookkeeper and the boss are too busy with their personal lives to focus on the work place. Each one is constantly on their cell on personal conversations. The bookkeeper is running her nieghborhood HOA out of our office, she is the treasurer. the boss is busy with his extra-cirricular activites also…..he uses the speaker phone in his office, so our entire office can hear his PERSONAL conversations. No he is not the owner, but a division "manager".
The bookkeeper takes a 2 hour lunch EVERY DAY. She is supposed to be here at 9, but strolls in 9:15 yakking on her cell….you go to her office to get some company information, and she puts her hand up to have YOU wait, while she yaks to a friend.
I firmly believe that cells phones are the major contibutor of rudeness in our society. I was in her office the other day, and I was in mid-sentence when she held her hand up to stop me, so she could answer her cell. MID SENTENCE……..

@Techmom..I have been with this job for over 25 years..If it gets to bad, I walk away..Most of the time, I just turn the radio up louder..:)

I can't remember how much I spent when I went away to college because it's been 25 years but I didn't spend $2500 to furnish my first apartment. My mother and older sisters created a "hope chest" for me so they had bought my sheets, bedspread and towels for me. Everything was packed in a footlocker which I also needed for school (it was also my coffee table in my first apartment). The dorms had twin beds and built in desks and night stands. Freshmen dorms weren't air conditioned so I bought a box fan for the window, desk lamp, iron and a little refrigerator. My aunt gave me the 13in TV she had in her kitchen. We weren't allowed to have microwaves or hot plates but there was a microwave in the commons area of the dorm . I was always filthy so I pretty much just used it to heat water for my instant coffee.
September 4th, 2012
4:03 pm
I'm just glad my child has her own room…2 bedrooms on one side sharing a bathroom and 2 on the other side sharing a bathroom with a full kitchen (stove and all).
September 4th, 2012
4:04 pm
My dorm room was pretty decent and didn't cost my parents much. We could have a TV and my roomie brought that. You had to have a medical reason to have a fridge and neither of us had one so no fridge. Couldn't have microwaves or any kind of cooking device except for coffee pot. Used the one down the hall. There was a stove at the end of most halls and small fridges. Had a phone line – we split that bill and cable. Had a word processor (remember those!) for us to use to type our papers. I brought that. We put or desks back to back for privacy. Room was so small that we didn't have privacy anyway but it was an allusion. We had sheets, towels, and a comforter. Room had blinds so no need for drapes. Don't think we could have hung any anyway. Don't remember a rug. Pretty sparce but comfy enough. Looked like everyone else's. Didn't have space for couches, futons, chandeliers (good grief), etc. The people that came from money just had better comforters and sheets than the rest of us. :-)
September 4th, 2012
4:16 pm
…but there is ALWAYS room for a futon (unless the beds are stationary) – you just have to be creative, and handy…my kids just built the beds on stilts and put the futon underneath one of them…
September 4th, 2012
4:24 pm
ahhh yes… I guess I didn't account for the morons of society who are mortgaged to the hilt with thousands in credit card debt but with such a huge inferiority complex that they are still willing to spend big bucks so baby girl can have a cutesy bedspread in her dorm room… then just file bankruptcy later. THIS phenomena annoys me more than the "making rich people sound normal" ever did.
September 4th, 2012
5:02 pm
I'm not going broke so my child's dorm room can be decorated to the hilt. The young lady next to my daughter has her room packed with all types of stuff. Her room can definitely be in a catalog. Her mother was in there, her grandmother and two sister friends decorating that room from ceiling to floor. It's really nice looking, but that room is full of unnecessary design and wall treatments. Bet that room was decorated more to suit the mom instead of the daughter.

Mercer in Macon 1984-1988, Shorter Dorm 5th floor, no air conditioning, no elavator, pay phone in center of the hall, two communal bathrooms. Room size 10 by 12, two small open closets. Metal desks, old school chairs and beds that looked like we made for an army bunker. No TV, no cable. Took a new Smith Corona typewritter with self correcting ribbon, thought I had it made and I did.

In front of a row of painted shacks smoking with jerked meat, a man comes skipping up with a handmade stand swinging with inarguably cool necklaces. The instinct is to say no thanks to people trying to hawk a sale, but this is not the typical fare, and Mr. Dennis Maxwell seems kinda wild with pride. He excitedly opens his palm to reveal a green pod lined with tiny red seeds. "Coffee beans!" he exclaims, "I've been making these for 20 years, put my 4 kids through school." He laughed and laughed as we snapped pics of him with his creations, peeking playfully through the strands. When he recovered from the excitement of the impromptu shoot, he explained how he hikes into the mountains every day to seek his beans: "It's 30 minutes walking. Sometimes one hour." Then he happily trotted off with his stand to share his wares with a just-arrived van-full of vacationers.

Mesa Police say a 15-year-old driver has been arrested after being involved in a deadly hit and run accident near Alma School and University.
Investigators say the 15 year-old was driving with a learner's permit with his friends when they tried to enter a Jack In The Box restaurant parking lot, striking a scooter.
The victim, identified as 22 year-old Mason Merrill, was critically injured in the accident. He was heading home from delivering a package.
Police say the teen driving the pickup truck fled the scene and returned to his home.
Witnesses took down the suspect's description and gave it to authorities who found the driver at his house.
Despite life-saving efforts, the victim died as a result of his injuries.
Jeremiah Alvarez, who rides a bicycle was surprised by the accident. "That kind of falls on the parents, what were they doing letting their kid drive, if they let him drive then it comes down to parental control," he said.
Merrill's family says they feel for the suspect.
"We feel bad for him a little bit because having something on his conscience like that.. we're not really mad at him or blame him for anything and that goes for my whole family," said Josh Merrill, the victim's brother.
The Merrill family tells FOX 10 that Mason was a faithful member of the LDS Church and returned early from his mission because he had cancer, which had been in remission for about a year.
Authorities have not released the name of the suspect in this case.

MARTIN, Tenn. – For the fourth time this season, a University of Tennessee at Martin player has been recognized by the Tennessee Sportswriters Association as senior running back DJ McNeil was named the TSWA Offensive Football Player of the Week this afternoon.
A 6-2, 205-pound Collierville, Tenn. native, McNeil set new career-highs with 27 carries and 148 rushing yards in UT Martin's 17-7 road victory at Southeast Missouri in its Ohio Valley Conference opener last Saturday. It was the second 100-plus yard rushing game of the season and third of his collegiate career.
McNeil is currently the OVC's leading rusher at 111.8 yards per game, while ranking second in all-purpose yards (124.0 yards per game) and ninth in total offense (111.8 yards per game). He has accounted for game-highs in rushing attempts in all four games this season while helping guide UT Martin to a 3-1 record and national No. 22 ranking.
McNeil found the endzone in each of the first three contests of the season (two rushing, one receiving). He has 16 rushing touchdowns in his career, which is tied for sixth all-time in UT Martin history.
The Skyhawks return home this weekend for a Homecoming matchup against OVC rival Jacksonville State. Kickoff on Saturday, Oct. 5 is set for 2 p.m. at Hardy Graham Stadium.

Information sector employs 3.7 million
January 31, 2002
One of the most interesting new sectors in the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is called Information. The industries within the sector transform information into a commodity, distribute that commodity, and provide information services.
The information sector's major components are publishing, motion pictures and sound recording, broadcasting, telecommunications, information services, Internet, and data processing. Under the Standard Industrial Classification system, these were spread across various manufacturing, communications, and services groupings.
The information sector brings together industries that had been credited with much of the dynamic growth experienced in the U.S. economy during the late 1990s. Its 3.7 million employees make it a sector of modest size, ranking 12th among the 20 classifications.
These data are preliminary private sector U.S. totals for the first quarter of 2001 from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages program. Additional information is available from "A first look at employment and wages using NAICS," by David R.H. Hiles, Monthly Labor Review, December 2001.
