Sex and the City Quiz
I saw this quiz over at blogthings.com. I decided to take it since I've recently discovered this show. I know, I know...I'm years behind. But I wanted to see who I am most like, and apparently...
You Are Most Like Carrie! |
You're quirky, flirty, and every guy's perfect first date. But can the guy in question live up to your romantic ideal? It's tough for you to find the right match - you're more than a little picky. Never fear... You've got a great group of friends and a great closet of clothes, no matter what! Romantic prediction: You'll fall for someone this year... Totally different from any guy you've dated. |

You are definitely not spoiled. You've worked hard for what you have. Down to earth and grounded, you don't need a lot to make you happy. |

Interesting Facts about the US $1 Bill
I got an email about the US $1 bill. I thought it was pretty interesting. I'm sure the $1 is the most common one I ever have in my wallet, but I never think much about it. Does anybody really think much about it? So here you are, interesting facts about the US $1 bill:
THE
UNITED STATES ONE DOLLAR BILL
Take
out a one dollar bill,
and look at it. The one dollar bill
you're
looking
at first came off the presses in 1957 in its present
design. This

so-called
paper money is in fact a
cotton and linen blend, with red
and
blue minute silk
fibers running through it. It is actually material. We've
all
washed
it without it falling apart. A special blend of ink is used,
the contents
we will never know. It is overprinted with symbols
and then it
is starched
to make it water resistant and pressed
to give it that nice crisp
look.
If you look on the front of
the bill, you will see the United States Treasury Seal.

On
the top you will see the scales for a
balanced budget.
In the center you have a carpenter's square, a
tool used for an even cut.
Underneath
is the Key to the
United States Treasury.
That's all pretty easy to figure out, but
what is on the back of that dollar bill is something we should all know.
If you turn the bill over, you will see two circles.
Both circles, together, comprise
the Great Seal of
the United States.

The
First Continental Congress
requested
that Benjamin Franklin and a
group of men come up with a Seal.
It took them four years
to accomplish this task and another two years to get it approved.
If you look at the left-hand circle, you will see a Pyramid.

Notice
the face is lighted, and the
western side is dark. This country
was just beginning. We had not
begun to explore the West or decided
what we could do for Western Civilization.
The
Pyramid
is uncapped, aga in signifying that we were not even close to
being finished. Inside the capstone you have the all-seeing eye, an
ancient symbol for divinity.
It was Franklin 's belief that
one man
couldn't do it alone, but a group of men, with the help of
God, could do anything.
'IN GOD WE
TRUST' is on this
currency.

The Latin above the pyramid,
ANNUIT COEPTIS, means,
'God has favored our
undertaking.'
The Latin
below the pyramid, NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM,
means,
'a new order has begun.'
At the
base of the pyramid
is the Roman Numeral for 1776.
(MDCCLXXVI)
If you look at the right-hand
circle, and
check it carefully,

you will learn
that it is on every National Cemetery in the United States .
It is also on the
Parade of Flags Walkway at the
Bushnell, Florida National Cemet ery ,
and is the centerpiece of
most hero's monuments.
Slightly modified, it is
the seal of the President of the United States ,
and
it is always visible
whenever he speaks, yet very few people know what the
symbols mean.
The Bald Eagle was selected as a symbol for victory for
two reasons:
First, he is not afraid of a storm;
he is
strong, and he is smart enough to soar above it.
Secondly, he wears no
material crown. We had just
broken from the King of England .& nbsp;
Also, notice the
shield is unsupported. This country can now stand on its
own.
At the top of that shield
you have a white
bar signifying congress, a unifying factor.
We
were coming together as
one nation.
In the
Eagle's beak you will read, ' E PLURIBUS UNUM', meaning,
'one nation from many people'.
Above the
Eagle, you
have thirteen stars, representing the thirteen
original colonies, and any clouds of misunderstanding
rolling away. Again, we were coming together as one.
Notice what the Eagle holds in his talons.
He
holds an olive branch and arrows.
