How to make my laptop last a long airplane ride?
I have a Macbook Pro 15" with OSX 10.6.7 (if that matters haha) Anyway, my mom, dad, brother, uncle, cousin (and his wife) are going out to Yosemite park this summer. We're meeting up with my other uncle, aunt and other cousin there. We are flying out of Indianapolis International Airport and flying into San Fransisco International. I know it's a few hours but approximately how long is that flight and how can I make my laptop last that long? I have like 3 movies on my laptop, but I didn't know if it will last through 3 movies. I was going to put it on the least brightness and try to make the energy saving settings so it lasts longer, but are there any tips you use on long trips? I'm assuming it's about 6 hours, that's how long it took for us to fly from Chicago to there once.

i have these same problems. Alright heres what you do. 1. dim the brightness (it helps alot) 2. don't use the speakers use headphones and don't have it up really loud. 3. watch movies (that is probably the least battery consumer you could use on a laptop.) 4.close unnecessary things or programs such as skype g talk java and things like that) 5.log off about after every movie and give it about 10 minutes to rest (NOTE: do not shut down log off!!) 6. do not have a blanket or something under the laptop just have your logs nothing do block the fan opening. 7. if you can log in as a guest so that you wont have all of your files and stuff burning up the battery. trust me it helps.

How is this story so far
How is this story so far?
Any normal person would have figured out that Nicole's intentions on being friends with Savannah were false. Only a fool who refused to believe that their "precious angel" was capable of demonic destruction would turn the blind eye. Savannah thought Carter and Andy would have taken the hint that Nicole and her friends weren't what they seemed when she forwarded the nasty messages sent by Erica and Jennifer to them. Carter always liked to tell Savannah that she had no proof that Nicole was trying to sabotage her. Or even when Savannah had told Carter that the reason why Nicole's friends had been adding her on Facebook was to either check her out or do some unnecessary spying. Erica's persistent bullying on her statuses were proof enough. But of course, knowing Erica, she probably told him a fib story on why she had done it. But did they even respond to that? No. All they did was just simply ignore it. That put Savannah in a foul mood. Even when she entered the lobby of the Indianapolis International Airport, she still felt like smashing her fist through a wall. To add insult to injury, neither Carter or Andy were speaking to her. Why are they mad? Savannah thought angrily. Can't they seem I'm being bullied by the Mean Girls of Paramount? Of course those jerks didn't care. They were boys. They wouldn't have been concerned with Girl-on-Girl bullying if Savannah had been murdered by them. Boys liked that kind of stuff. "Probably hoping for a sexy catfight." Savannah muttered under her breath as she marched her white flip-flops on the immaculate floor. "What was that, honey?" Lauren Drake, Holly's mother, asked her. "I said I was hoping to see a sexy cat." Savannah lied automatically. Lauren cracked a smile. "No wonder my daughter talks about you all the time. You really are a pistol." Savannah returned the smile. At least that boosted her esteem. Lauren's mother seemed to have liked Savannah. She had often treated her like another daughter of hers. The woman had an uncanny resemblance to her own daughter and Savannah's best friend, Holly. They even had the same styled hair. What stuck out the most about the Drake family were their beautiful blue eyes. The only family member who didn't obtain that trait was Holly's older sister, Kayla. Who also had a flow of thick, auburn hair. Holly often liked to tell everyone she knew that Kayla was sat on their doorstep by a trailer-trash family. But Savannah knew deep down inside that Holly loved her sister. Even if it that affection was deep down inside of Holly's abyssal heart. All six of her friends, not counting Carter, Andy, and God forbid; Nicole, met up with her. Nicole, who couldn't seem to have taken her hands out of her hair, smiled condescendingly at her. A smile Savannah knew all too well. It meant that she had her right where she wanted her to be. Savannah thought the Netherlands could hear her gulp. This was going to be a long Spring Break. Meanwhile, Carter and Nicole couldn't take their hands off of each other while everyone waited for their flight to arrive. Savannah had the misfortune of watching them suck-faces. She looked over at Lauren who obliviously made a few calls on her Blackberry. Savannah should have known that Lauren wouldn't have been too offended by the public display of affection considering how liberal she was about her daughter and her friends drinking. She was one of those flighty, misguided suburban mothers who had no clue what her children were doing. And that put Savannah in an uncomfortable position. Lauren's motto was: "How are they going to learn if they don't get any practice first." By that, she meant that the sooner a child drinks, the less accidents would occur on their twenty-first birthday. Lauren never did make quite sense. Who would have thought that a forty-year-old woman would care what a bunch of ninth graders thought of her?

Nursing is a really awesome vocation, I have met many wonderful nurses in my lifetime, both men and women. My daughter found some really awesome instruction about it on the resource in the box below, and now she is in her first semester of training.
2 :
An awesome Idea! Informational interview might be the catch phrase to use. Speak to your University Job placement resources and your mentor/counselor. You've done some research finding one hospital. Broaden that search, look for a job shadow experience in the ER or triage of the hospital and find out who rides the copter and ask them for advice. Ask anyone you meet if they know of someone in or close to this profession. Showing a profound interest and perseverance will get you that ride along. They have to have training missions! Good Luck!!

This is one of the organizations in California called Calstar that does flight nursing. The email address to get a hold of them at would be education@calstar.org

Why are Blueberry Preserves dangerous
Why are Blueberry Preserves dangerous?
Recently I went to a family reunion in Indiana and won a door prize. It was a small jar of Blueberry Preserves, 11.5 oz. to be exact. When I flew back home from Indianapolis to Denver I had it packed in my carry on luggage which was just a small backpack, I didn't have any checked luggage. When I went through the TSA security check they confiscated the Preserves and said that I couldn't take it on the plane because it was more than 3 oz. My question is; What exactly is it about Blueberry Preserves that makes it a dangerous terrorist substance? Did they really think that I was going to "JAM" up the flight controls with it or something like that? Please don't tell me that it was because it was more than three ounces either, that's just plain B.S. and totally ridiculous. I mean C'mon really, it was food stuff. Besides, my dad that lives in Texas was allowed to takes his on the plane, and it was the same size jar, only a different flavor. Pay attention Brandon, and everyone else. I said I didn't want to hear anything about that 3 ounces crap. So explain to me why my father was able to take his 11.5 ounce jar of preserves on the plane to Texas. James O Just because YOU'RE paranoid, doesn't mean I'm out to get you. So explain to me what exactly is in preserves that could cause an explosion? Nothing.

Blueberry preserves are highly explosive, and a three-ounce jar would blow a hole about six feet across in the side of an airliner. Or, at least, that's what Dick Cheney thinks. Let's hope we don't get any more of these whack jobs for a few decades. I see the Thumbs Down Monkeys are out in force today. Whenever I get lots of Thumbs Down Monkey Hits, that's when I know for sure I'm right! Thanks, Guys!

Heres the thing, 3oz is the min. volume needed to cause a serious chemical explosion. 3oz of plastic will actually be more than enough to blow a hole in the side of a pressurized jet. And there are quite a few things that you can mix with preserves to make a nasty bomb. Dont get mad at it. You know it was food, but they dont. I used to work for TSA at the Dayton Airport and snagged one of those SOB's from over seas. He seemed to be a great guy, as im sure you are. But when the investigation was conducted we found that he was meeting someone in Dallas flying from Chicago. He had all kinds of "innocent" stuff in his bag. But when the contents of his bag was put with the contents of the other dudes bag in IL, they had a bomb. Hope this helps you out a bit.

There is absolutely nothing dangerous about blueberry preserves, nor is there anything dangerous about toothpaste or hair shampoo. Rules are rules, even if they don't make sense to you. If your father did carry on more than a 3 oz. jar of preserves, then someone wasn't doing their job at the airport. The traveling public didn't make up the rules, but the rules got made up thanks to the Muslim terrorists and an overzealous government. And I'm sure that nearly anyone could scoop out the middle of a jar of preserves and hide a nice little chunk of plastic explosive in it. The bigger the jar, the bigger the chunk. That's why they made up the rule. It sucks for the preserve eaters, but helps preserve the safety of everyone that flys.

To Sarajevo : Lufthansa has direct flights from Munich, Austrian from Vienna, British Airways from London and Malev from Budapest. If you search these four airlines' shedule, you can find the best fare with Malev. It is always cheaper to fly all the way with the same company, not to combine. Malev's share partners fly both to Chicago and Detroit. If you book early in advance you will have better options and cheaper seats. British Airways has nice offers right now for the next year bookings. Lufthansa has flights from all three mentioned cities, but is quite expensive. Ask them about spec. offers and early bookings. The same applies for Austrian and British Airways. There is also possibility to fly from USA using charter flights to Europe, but always search for towns having direct flights to Sarajevo: Madrid, Koeln, Munich, Budapest, Vienna, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Beograd, Ancona and/or London. Good luck, Dado bosanski! edit: They will charge youth/student fare for your ticket, which is about 30% cheaper than adult fare. If you book fixed dates the tickets will be cheaper also. And if you find at least another 2 people traveling on the same dates, you can have another discount as a group.
