  1. we usually start around july, unless the gift is going to be some sort of technology that would obsolete or worth half as much by christmas some of the best deals and email coupons from online stores come around other holidays such as july 4th, labor day, memorial day, veterans day some favs that email killer deals throughout the year are --- woot, new egg, vermont country store, slickdeals, cabellas, fry's, etc
  2. " A New York man was sentenced today to 24 months in prison for his role in one of the largest credit card fraud schemes ever charged by the Justice Department....." " originally charged in February 2013 as part of a conspiracy to fabricate more than 7,000 false identities to obtain tens of thousands of credit cards. " how does someone only get 24 months in prison and a $1,000 fine (& only allowed to plea guilty to 1 count) -- for credit card fraud involving more than $200 million in losses and thousands of cards & transactions? so, are we saying that now crime does
  3. " Belmont Farms was redeveloped and opened as Belmont Hills Shopping Center on November 18, 1954. At the time, the 50-acre retail strip mall with 2500 parking spaces, was the largest shopping center in the South " http://www.smyrnahistory.org/_history_ofsmyrna.htm
  4. yes, the road widening & extra lanes is all i could find online, but the road upgrades will be needed for the extra traffic that this new facility is going to bring in..... not in the bill arp section of town, but after reading those comments, it makes sense for it to be a hub / transfer point for tractor trailers, etc --- they are grading a couple hundred acres completely flat and level with about 20 dozers and it will have easy access to bankhead and I-20
  5. anyone know what the big construction project is going to be in the douglasville area between hwy 5 and bright star rd? --- it is big enough to be another mall / factory {one entrance is on gurley rd and the other side is on bright star}
  6. just borrow a welders helmet, or if you want to really buy something, then buy just the replacement lens for a welders helmet at sears, or tractor supply or home depot, or northern tool, etc --- make sure it is for a electric arc welder protection and not the light-duty gas welder goggles / lens
  7. the partial eclipse {in paulding} will be coming through approx 2:35pm, when elementary schools normally let out...... if you want to see the total eclipse then the closest place to be in the path will be in n.e. georgia or the area between chattanooga and knoxville.... If you know any welders, borrow their helmets to look at it http://www.eclipse2017.org/eclipse2017_main.htm
  8. and they also told the public about 10 years ago that the u-scan / self scanner was going to save us money
  9. FYI -- kroger is ending the senior discount day (wednesdays), beginning may 17th http://clark.com/shopping-retail/food-restaurants/confirmed-kroger-ending-senior-discount-at-these-188-stores/?utm_source=Clark+Newsletter+List&utm_campaign=b3aa181375-Clark_Daily_Newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_afa92deb83-b3aa181375-71025353
  10. Rockmart man; GBI says he had air rifle; remains critical at hospital. http://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/paulding-county/gbi-man-shot-by-officers-had-fake-rifle/498990254
  11. Per the Federal Trade Commission, VIZIO agreed to settle charges that it violated the law when it used its Smart Television's software to collect your info, what you watch, and other habits, etc. They also shared that information with other companies. More than 11 million consumers affected link for more info as well as info on how to disable the tracking: https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/blog/vizio-settlement-smart-tvs-should-not-track-your-shows-without-your-ok?utm_source=govdelivery
  12. ---- I checked the tracking, and it finally made it back to douglasville post office today, but it went to the 30135 post office. It already went there once on Oct 26th. We (south paulding) are served out of the 30134 location. Maybe i will get it in a day or so, unless they send it back to memphis for re-sorting......
  13. sooooo, i order some christmas gifts early this year, a medium size box and around 20 pounds shipped via fedex. coming to douglasville / south paulding It is looking like it is going to be christmas before it gets here ordered 10/24 started fedex in jersey transferred to spartanburg, sc transferred to ellenwood, ga transferred to U.S. post office douglasville transferred to U.S. post office villa rica transferred to U.S. post office dallas, ga transferred back to fedex in memphis, tn
  14. post it on uship --- there are alot of moving companies {licensed and bonded} that are on there looking for that extra load. just do not hire a company a guy or company that is not insured or federally licensed household mover --- it is easy to check online : https://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/hhg/search.asp
  15. So, if someone wants your $2,000 worth of business, i would think some comps or butt-kissing should be in order.
  16. Thank you for the replies! The copywriter she needed was in advertising or marketing. We did find someone last week. Bragging momma here, she made a 100!!
  17. My daughter is seeking a Copywriter mentor for her Senior Project. She has sent out numerous e-mails, but with no reply's. Does anyone here have any suggestions? I appreciate any assistance. She just needs to contact someone and ask a few questions. .
  18. I am not familiar with the hiram office, but i have a relative that did their 28 day inpatient program in their dalton facility with success so far. They have a outpatient program too. Being he had a whitfield county address, it was free for him to go to that facility (hint hint). There is a similar facility in cedartown, but i don't know the name. And of course, there is the cobb/douglas csb shared system for people with those addresses. I guess what i am trying to say is, we researched locally, and and found the surrounding counties have much better options
  19. Have them see if it is actually still "out there" and being reported. Small towns and certain states' record keeping back then was not accurate when records got transferred into the newer computer systems. For $20 or less they can get their own background check online with various companies or they can get their "official" record by going to decatur / GBI headquarters and i think it is $15 to get your own record there. The main reason i say to check your own convictions when they are decades old, is that because of the way databases work, there may be very little info out there (or none
  20. If this had happened in clayton county, it would have been covered up In georgia, the odds are swayed considerably for any law enforcement officer & grand juries. The officer is allowed to testify at his/her own grand jury and they attempt to avoid indictment. Citizens are not allowed to do that & it is a one-sided story being told by the D.A.
  21. Some of them are scams so be sure to update directly from windows update or mozilla firefox, etc. The scam ones usually want you to "update" so they can change your online search engine or they want to install a tool bar, or install something else packaged with the browser ---- grandma likes the coupon tool bar, but did not realize it tracks everything you do online and sends her to fake discount web sites
  22. overton's has a 10 year warranty on floats: http://www.overtons.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?pdesc=Dock-Edge-Howell-600-Foam-Filled-Float&i=94554&r=view&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=googlebase&s_kwcid=googlepla&cvsfa=2587&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=3934353534&kpid=94554&gclid=CjwKEAjwpYeqBRDOwq2DrLCB-UcSJAASIYLjWXFJeXDQI5H2F3fQBaYwO6T8RbMKwFLicBYxAAupqhoC8grw_wcB heck, even home depot sells them: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Multinautic-60-in-x-24-in-x-16-in-Professional-Float-14122/203677590?cm_mmc=Shopping|Base&gclid=CjwKEAjwpYeqBRDOwq2DrLCB-UcSJAASIYLj
  23. they quit teaching latin & caligraphy in most high schools in the 60s and 70s for the same reasoning, the average person is not going to need it to be a good citizen / successful adult
  24. Just like most issues, there are good & not so good or "abuses" to the system Allowing officers to take home patrol cars is often cited as increasing visibility / police presence, and helping citizens feel safer. While on the road home & while parked at the officer’s residence, the vehicle is visible. Realistically, the vehicles are soon recognized by the criminal element as being take-home cars and studies by different agencies across the country have determined that it has little effect as a deterrent to crime. However, the public’s fear of crime usually relies on perception, and
