She is grateful to be part of the journeys of the girls at Discovery Ranch and considers this to be an engaging and meaningful part of her life.

DISCOVERY RANCH CHEF & CULINARY ARTS STAFF
Jerry Mitchell - Executive Chef
Jerry L. Mitchell was interested in food many years before he started his career in the food business. It all started sixteen years prior to attending culinary school when he married his wife Pam and began cooking as a hobby. In 1985, when he had the opportunity for a career change, he attended Tante Marie's Cooking School in San Francisco. Within his first month after completing his training, he became an executive chef at Savories Gourmet and Fine Wines in Corte Madera, California. This was one of the upstart businesses for the concept of gourmet delis, similar to delis like Whole Foods today. From there he managed the catering and restaurants for the members of the Corinthian Yacht Club in Tiburon, California. After his tenure there, he was hired as executive chef at the Ramp Restaurant in San Francisco where he designed a newly remodeled kitchen and menu resulting in brunch that evolved from 100 covers per weekend day to 500 covers. The restaurant consultant who had recommended him for the Ramp then hired him to help open a new restaurant on California Street, The Curbside Cafe in which he designed a menu which many components are still in use to this day. After his 10 year tenure as executive chef for the Curbside, Jerry started to work with three catering companies in the Bay area, and many other aspects of the food business including cafeteria management and management of large volume soup production at the now popular Good Earth Natural Foods in Fairfax, California. In all Jerry has almost thirty years of experience serving in various executive chef and food service management positions. He has created many entrees, salads, and deserts during his career. Jerry has worked many catered functions involving top names in the bay area such as Robin Williams, Bon Jovi, George Lucas and Michael Savage to name a few. He constantly researches and looks to new trends in the food business focusing highly on nutrition and health. Jerry is happy to be a part of Discovery Ranch for Girls where he is able to apply his accumulated knowledge in creating great food and a pleasant atmosphere for the girls.

DISCOVERY RANCH FOR GIRLS HORSES
Equine Team – (Level, Beginner)
Cali is a prime example of the saying "Great things come in small packages". Cali is one of the favorite horses to trail ride and learn to gallop on. She makes up the third part of our grounds group. Cali shows patience and yet requires that her girls come to her using respect, love, and clear communication. Stubborn is another one of Cali's greatest traits. When a girl tries to push or asks Cali to do what they want, Cali provides them with responses to let the girl know how ineffective their approaches are at that moment.
Jazz comes to the ranch with many years of experience working with teenagers. In her youth, she was a champion cutter. Jazz is an essential part of Discovery Ranch for Girls' equine program she is the leader (alpha) of our grounds group. Jazz is truly a therapist at heart. She is understanding, patient, tolerant and a caretaker for any girl who needs support. She takes our girls into her loving arms and when it is all said and done Jazz has made a friend for life. Girls feel they are invincible when they ride Jazz because she has the ability to make them believe in their fullest potential. Jazz will never let your child cheat or cut corners. She always expects them to communicate well, set firm boundaries and give her respect in return. The girls don't complain much by what Jazz expects because when it is all said and done they know she will reward them with the gift of self.
Cash is Jazz's best friend and teammate in our grounds group. She too has had extensive experience working with teenagers and in her youth was also a champion cutter. Cash is patient, understanding and does a good job taking care of those who are new to riding. She is wonderful when working with girls due to her ability to mirror the emotions which the girls bring into Equine. Cash understands the importance of healthy relationships and will help your child learn about respect, firm boundaries, and clear communication. If your child or others are struggling and bringing anger or frustration to the group, Cash mirrors such. Cash is really good about allowing your child to see just what it is like to be a parent dealing with an out of hand teenager. She will act out and this in part helps us be able to discuss aspects of home life that a lot of students never wish to look at.
Equine Team – (Advanced)
Tex – Another of our males, came to work here at Discovery Ranch for Girls with his own history of abuse and maltreatment. Not much is known specifically about Tex's abuse other than it left this beautiful horse, with little to no belief in himself. Tex resembles a lot of the girls who come here to Discovery Ranch for Girls; two individuals who are very capable, yet unable to see their full potential. Tex needs the belief, the trust, and vision of another to live up to his potential. His struggles allow him to help our girls. It is wonderful to see how the two grow together. The miracle doesn't just happen in an instant. It takes a lot of time, patience, and understanding based on a strong foundation of respect. Tex pays off your daughter's willingness and determination handsomely with what can only be described as the "perfect ride."
Equine Team – (medium- advanced)
Carmel is a 5 year old female and a true teenager at heart. She loves to have things her way. Carmel could be described as being nosy; she loves being the center of attention and can be quite dramatic. She often invites herself to situations without having been asked. If she could talk, I think she would say she hates boundaries and rules. Carmel argues. She pushes limits and rebels against anyone who tries to use a heavy hand. She resembles so many of our girls and it is interesting to watch as the girls learn about themselves through the struggles they have in working with her.
Equine Team – (Grounds-Intermediate-Advanced)
Martin was raised at a performance horse facility here in a rural part of Utah. He comes from a long line of working cow and performance horses. The facility he came from is known for their high quality horses. The underlying fact that makes Martin's background so neat, is he was ridden and trained not only by a professional rodeo cowboy, but as well as young men that are learning their own ropes at their own residential treatment center. Martin came to us by what we see as fate. He had a little of what we would call, a strange gait… which means he probably wouldn't have made the cut as a performance horse… which then led him to us. He was then donated to Discovery Ranch for Girls, and fit the part almost immediately. His pretty coat and curious personality draws many students to him. Martin is one of our young guns here on the ranch. Don't let his young age fool you though… he is very well knowledgeable of his work here. He allows the girls to see that too much pressure isn't always the answer, and not enough, doesn't suffice, either. He gives them the opportunity to see that soft hands, and a calm presence are much more rewarding than not. Martin's curiosity really allows movement in our grounds groups… But if not directed in the right way, Martin has a way of showing that if the path is not quite right for him, he isn't going to take it.
Appy
Equine Team – (Grounds – Intermediate-Advanced)
Appy has been good friends with Martin for a couple of years prior to Discovery Ranch for Girls, as they were pastured together at the same facility. As fate would have it, we got a call a couple months after receiving Martin, in which Appy was in need of a new home. We welcomed him with open arms. He brings some "color" to the ranch. He is an appaloosa, with a very distinct snow capped coat, with soft brown eyes. His looks alone draw students to him. Although a little stand offish at first, Appy has a very soft spot for building relationships. He stands off in the distance, waiting for someone to take the first step in building that relationship with him. He is often overlooked because of his shy nature, but opens up with trust. He offers the students a unique experience once they take that chance on him.
Aspen is another one of our young and upcoming horses. Aspen was donated to the ranch as a yearling, and has grown up to be quite the looker, with an incredibly outgoing personality. He is very sweet, and curious. He provides many of the students with an opportunity to set goals… Where he is not ready to be ridden by a lot of the students yet, because he is young and still learning the ropes, many of the students want to make it a goal to ride him once they are both ready. He is such a character, and always has the students laughing. You can count on him to be sticking his head over the fence just waiting for attention. Aspen does require a lot of patience. He has just recently began his journey has a horsemanship horse here at Discovery Ranch for Girls and still lacks all of the fine-tuned training. Students that have begun to ride Aspen really have to remember that he is still just learning. He really has taken to his new found duties, and really clicks well with the students. It's fun to watch him and the students grow together in this process.
Equine Team – (Intermediate-Advanced)
Ginger is a ball of fire, wrapped up in a little body. Don't let her size fool you though… she has a lot of spunk. Ginger came to the ranch in 2017 and has made her mark here. She was originally with a family that had children who were competing on her in 4H competitions. Many students hear stories about "Ginger", and judge her before getting to know her. She has the ability of challenging students in a way that only makes sense to those working with her. Ginger searches for trust, and will push students until they finally trust themselves… In return, she puts her full trust in them. She has an incredible knack for helping students overcome fear. Once Ginger and a student find that connection, it's hard for them to steer away from each other. Although that connection is not easy at first, time and patience with Ginger usually pays off in the end. She offers the students a sense of accomplishment, and a goal of not giving up on a difficult situation.
Equine Team – (The all-around… use for anything)
If there was one acronym to describe Chico, it would most definitely be the MVP. Chico was actually given to Lee and her children from a family friend, so he doubles as a junior rodeo/ranch horse for her family, and a therapeutic horse for Discovery Ranch. Although he may be in his mid 20's, Chico doesn't show his age remotely. Chico has a huge heart and an incredible role here at the ranch. He makes the students feel welcomed, and he also makes sure that the students don't let him go unnoticed, either. If he does not get his introduction fast enough, he will make sure he does it himself. He is a horse that we can whole-heartedly trust to do the work that he's needed to do, whether it be cheer up a student that is sad and lonely, or finish an obstacle course at any speed. Words cannot even begin to describe the relationship students are able to build with Chico. He provides us with so many opportunities to ask the right questions. We are lucky to share Chico with Lee and her family.
Equine Team – (Grounds-Beginner-Intermediate)
Pete is a true definition of older gentleman. He has an old soul, and a spritely spirit. Pete is fairly new to the ranch, but he doesn't show it. His first day, he took to it all like a seasoned vet. Pete came from a family who used him in many 4H competitions, took him moving cows, and used him as a caring babysitter for the younger kids. He carries the title of "protector" very well. In one of his fairly new groups, Pete actually picked up on the fact that one of the other horses was being a little too rambunctious for the group that day. In noticing that, Pete took his role as the protector very serious. He created a barricade between the students and other horse. He wouldn't let that horse near them, as he could tell that the other horse was making the students a little anxious. He is kind and considerate, and has really found his role here at Discovery Ranch for Girls. As many of the other horses, Pete had a comeback story. A few years ago, his previous owners were told that he had a career ending injury. He was then laid off for a while to see if he would recover. When brought back, Pete acted as if nothing had happened, and was ready to go again. We're glad to have found Pete, and we hope that his story of never giving up, and finding his role at Discovery Ranch for Girls provides hope for any student that interacts with him.
Elvis represents his name well. He is talented, a fan favorite, stunning, and reliable. During his time before the ranch, he was very involved in rodeo competitions. Elvis became sore after some time, and was taken in to see a veterinarian. They decided to do a surgery on his joints to help fix some of the damage. The surgery performed didn't go as planned, and Elvis was forced to retire from competition. Instead of giving up on him and his life, the owners decided that with his sweet personality, and huge heart, they would donate him to Discovery Ranch for Girls. He wants to please everyone, but is not afraid to hold his ground when he doesn't feel things are right. Elvis is very patient and kind, and shows the students what it's like to persevere even through the hardest of times. His story gives hope to many students who struggle with feeling they are not enough anymore. The biggest moral that Elvis gives us, is that when one door closes, another one opens.
MINI DONKEYS - FRED & ED
Equine Team – (Grounds)
Fred and Ed bring variety and fun to Discovery Ranch for Girls. These two little miniature donkeys provide such a unique dynamic to our grounds group. In 2017, we picked these little guys up here in Southern Utah to kind of use as a "test run". We had only ever had horses, and weren't quite sure what mini donkeys would bring to the table. They have now exceeded our expectations, and more. At first, Fred and Ed had no trust in humans. They were scared, easily frightened, and would never separate from one another. It was easy for them to take the "flight" mode in hopes that no interaction would happen between them and anyone else. Over time, the donkeys have evolved from being terrified little creatures, to incredibly accepting animals. With a lot of use, human interaction, love, and of course, treats, the donkeys have formed an incredible trust in students. Although… that trust is not incredibly easy to gain. They are very receptive to clear and precise communication and guidelines. If that clear communication is not there, Fred and Ed have a very good way of showing that they do not understand. They provide so much movement in the grounds group when asked correctly. Fred and Ed now have established enough rapport with everyone, that they feel comfortable enough to be guided and directed individually. It took some time for them to be comfortable without one another, but because of the gentle acts and kindness that the girls have showed them, they truly know they are safe here at Discovery Ranch for Girls.
MINI HORSE - DORA
Dora makes up the third tier of our miniature triangle. She is a miniature pony, who came to Discovery Ranch for Girls with a bad haircut (Hence the name Dora, from Dora the Explorer) and no trust in anyone. Before Dora was donated, she led a life of abandonment. Some mutual friends found her wandering on their desert land permit where they run cattle. It had appeared that she was dropped off, and left to fend for herself. The owners of the land were able to bring her back to town, but had no luck in finding the previous owners. By word of mouth, it was rumored that the owners did not want her, and didn't know what else to do with her. She was then taken in by a family, but as you can imagine, she was fearful and untamed in a sense. The family then reached out to Discovery Ranch for Girls. To this day, Dora is still very, very, timid… but that doesn't stop her from reaching out and looking for relationships. Dora is becoming very accepting of people, although she shies away at first. She is learning that the students are here to love and take care of her, instead of use and abuse her. She has come a long way since the first day at Discovery Ranch for Girls. You can now see her walking up to the fence out of curiosity, waiting for someone to pet her or give her a treat. Her trust with humans is still being repaired, but it goes to show that the process isn't always fast or easy. Dora really represents something much bigger than just being a cute little horse… she represents the fact that big things do come in small packages, and although the process may be slow, it is well worth it.
Sir Henry
Sir Henry – (To Be Determined)
Sir Henry is a huge addition to Discovery Ranch for Girls. And when we say huge, we aren't kidding. Sir Henry is an English Shire… one of the biggest breeds of horses. Sir Henry was donated to us by a local family who owns and raises English Shire Horses. The Diamond Z English Shire Hitch travels all over the United States to perform in shows, rodeos, and parades. Sir Henry sustained an injury to his shoulder that would hinder him from being able to be a part of the hitch, so we were lucky enough to take him in. He is truly the definition of a gentle giant. Although his back stands above the highest fence rail, he doesn't let his size get in his way. Sir Henry adds a unique feel to the horses of Discovery Ranch for Girls, because he is the only one of his kind and stature on the ranch. For the students here, it is neat for them to look at Sir Henry and know that it is okay to stand out, and to be different. Sir Henry actually shares a pasture with our miniature horse Dora, and the miniature donkeys, Fred & Ed. You can just imagine that picture. Having them all together, with all of their different sizes, personalities, and species, really creates an accepting atmosphere.
We have plenty of ideas for the big guy here at Discovery Ranch for Girls, and we can't wait to share them with you.
DISCOVERY RANCH STAGES A POWERFUL SUPPORT SYSTEM AROUND
YOUR DAUGHTER FOR HEALTH AND SUCCESS
With over twenty years of experience in the industry, we pride ourselves on making a difference in the lives of the girls we work with.
A little over twenty years ago, a small group of founders began working with adolescent youth in a program in their area. On weekends, they would take some of the youth up to their family ranch to work and stay busy. As time passed, they noticed that the experiences, outdoor time, and hard work actually facilitated therapeutic opportunities that led to helping some of those youth towards a faster and more lasting path to healing. This discovery helped springboard what has become a successful family of programs that share a philosophy of experiential therapy and a continuum of care. Today our family of companies are still privately owned and operated by the very same group of founders.
THERE ARE MANY LAYERS TO SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT AND RECOVERY
Your daughter's needs are at the center of our focus.
We provide a level of care that goes beyond most treatment facilities.
Discovery Ranch for Girls is a private, highly focused residential treatment program, where limited spaces available leads to increased therapy and enhanced experiences.
Experienced therapists – specialists in dealing with your daughter's specific problems – in a location that facilitates year-round experiential opportunities.
Excellent track record, proven programs, accredited education program.
Parent involvement second to none. You are not alone. We will be working with you the entire time your daughter is in our program. From weekly calls with your daughter's therapist to progress reports, weekly photos, and parallel assignments and work, you will progress along with your daughter. Your feedback and involvement is a critical component to the success of the program for your daughter.

There is nothing I like more on a special occasion than finding the perfect outfits for my kids. If I had my way the boys would be matching and Addison if not also matching she would be in similar colours or prints. Thankfully at the moment they love it, Deacon especially gets super excited when he is dressed like his big brother.
So imagine my excitement when Boots Mini Club offered to send us out some new outfits to make our Christmas Day extra smart.
What did they send ?
Matching for the boys, I love that there whole range of clothes is available from 9 months to 6 years, as I do struggle in some shops with Deacon still being in younger clothes. Addison compliments the hat pattern with a gorgeous tartan dress.
Addison is all about dresses at the moment, after years of not wearing them, but they have to be nice soft fabric and still with enough stretch that she can run, jump and be crazy and this dress ticks all the boxes. The fabric is heavy but in a beautiful brushed cotton and lined for that extra glamour. It's not too tight and hangs nicely, what more it is not a tiny 5/6 so will fit her for many more months to come. She especially loved the tights, she liked the "lines" (ribbed) in them as "they make them extra smart Mummy".
Onto the boys outfits, there is nothing not to love, the boys both suffer with eczema so I can be a little fussy when it comes to trousers, but as with the dress Boots have taken into account the clothes are for little people's skin and they are super soft with no hard seams inside. They have the slightest pattern in the fabric making them extra smart and come with buttons inside to fit the tiniest waist.
The tops for me though steal the show, the design is awesome, kitsch and cute and exactly what I like to see, not your usual childish prints. The tee is a lovely thick quality, perfect for these cold winter months.
Mini Club kids clothing for boys and girls is perfect for their play time and special occasions, with trendy and adorable styles. There are so many pieces that I am currently lusting after and after Christmas I shall go for another little shop as I really am impressed with the value for money and quality. I just wish they would extend their range to say age 9!

Q: How to create Docker run-time argument to copy a host file at runtime into the container? I'm trying to create a Docker image for Squid3 which when run will accept a command-line parameter representing the file on the host to copy over /etc/squid/squid.conf within the container. I don't think this is possible, because the argument would be processed by the container itself and therefore have no access to the host. However, I thought I'd ask in case there's some magic I haven't found yet.
In the absence of this, I'd just use the kotaimen/squid3 image (https://github.com/Kotaimen/docker-squid3) which has you mount a volume to map to /etc/squid.
Anyway, I think it'd be really nice to be able to do something like so:
docker pull squid3
docker run squid3 ~/squid.conf

I'm still early in the process of creating this so any suggestions are welcome. I'm looking at the Squid3 images on DockerHub for reference.

A: As you already understood all arguments passed on the command line are processed by the program within the container - which of course has no direct access to the host filesystem.
In order to place a file from the host filesystem into the container I only see 2 reasonable ways (and 1 unreasonable):

*

*Volume-mount the respective file - similar to the kotaimen/squid3 image:

*

*no need for a custom image

*file is mounted/changed at run-time

docker run -v ~/squid.conf:/etc/squid/squid.conf:ro squid3

*Create your own image which includes your custom config into the base image:

*

*config is included in the image

*can only be changed at build-time

# Dockerfile
FROM squid3
COPY squid.conf /etc/squid/squid.conf

*The hacky way: use a custom script as entrypoint which ready the config from stdin. Then you can pass the file at start-up:

docker run --entrypoint 'sh -c "cat > /etc/squid/squid.conf; ./entrypoint.sh"' squid3 < ~/squid.conf

But this has some serious drawbacks:

*

*you need to write a custom entrypoint and include it in a custom image or use a hacky --entrypoint one the command line each time (see above)

*the container can't use stdin for anything else like especially interactive input anymore

*the entrypoint is run on every container re-/start even if no stdin is connected then, i.e. this would result in an empty config after the container restart:

docker run --name squid3 --entrypoint 'sh -c "cat > /etc/squid/squid.conf; ./entrypoint.sh"' squid3 < ~/squid.conf
docker restart squid3

Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded Getting Released in June
Posted In: Mac, News, PC
The folks at UIG Entertainment and Al Lowe are teaming up to release an update to the original Leisure Suit Larry. They went back to the original game and cranked everything up to 11 including graphics, sound, and even puzzles. Expect the game to hit the Mac and PC in June.
UIG Entertainment, a leading German publisher, and original designer Al Lowe are excited/nervous/deeply concerned (delete as appropriate!) to reveal that video gaming's king of innuendo, the digital Lothario himself Larry Laffer, is set to return this June in Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded on PC, Mac and Linux priced at £14.99.
Re-made, expanded and enhanced in every detail with original creator Al Lowe and original writer Josh Mandel at the helm, Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded sees Larry Laffer's first and greatest adventure, Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards, re-made for a brand new audience 26 years after its original release. Behind all-new hi-res, hand-drawn art and animation replacing the blocky pixelated graphics of the 1987 original, come expanded puzzles, locations, humour and gameplay. And rounding off the package (no pun intended!) is a re-written musical score from Grammy-nominated and BAFTA-winning composer Austin Wintory featuring Al Lowe on saxophone!
God's gift to womankind (at least in his own mind!) is back this June and he's got brand new leopard skin underpants to prove it!

Considered one of essentially the most typical electrical wiring inquiries is on how to wire a change. Whilst utilizing switches at your home is quite effortless, wiring one particular may not be that effortless for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is in fact quite simple to wire. You will find several types of switches, but for this example, let us say you might be installing a single-pole toggle switch, a really typical swap (and also the simplest).
There are actually three colors of wires in a usual single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and green. Splice the black wire in two and join them on the terminal screws - 1 on prime and also the other to the bottom screw from the swap. The white wire serves as being a resource of uninterrupted electricity and it is commonly linked to some light colored terminal screw (e.g., silver). Link the environmentally friendly wire into the ground screw of your respective swap.
These actions would generally be sufficient to produce a normal switch work and not using a problem. Then again, when you aren't self-confident that you can complete the job effectively and safely you much better enable the pros do it as a substitute. Right after all, there is a cause why this job is one of the most common electrical wiring concerns asked by many people.
For some reason, the way to wire a ceiling fan is also one among quite possibly the most frequent electrical wiring queries. To simplify this endeavor, you may use one swap for your single ceiling fan. To wire the enthusiast, it truly is simply a make a difference of connecting the black wire on the ceiling fan into the black wire on the change. If there is a lightweight, the blue wire needs to be connected into the black wire with the swap too.
You can find causes why they are the most commonly questioned electrical wiring inquiries. One particular, many consider it really is basic to try and do, and two, these are the typical electrical duties in your own home. But then you certainly must not put your safety at risk inside your purpose to save cash. The stakes could even be much better in case you attempt to spend less and do an electrical wiring career without having sufficient information or experience.

Q: Can i create multiple global style sheet for user change? I'm the beginner of react-native.
I'm going to provide change global font size function in my app.
User could change the font size in setting page, them the whole app font size will be adjusted.
After doing some research, it seems can't do it. So my idea now is create multiple global style sheet and apply it base on the user setting saved in storage.
But I found that it seems not work, because after create global style sheet, it need to import at the beginning of the app page.
How can I apply change the app global style or font size in react-native?

A: You might want take a look at useContext hook, it will give you a good way to handle app global style, suck as light or dark theme, your case, font is also not a problem.
Another way is using react-redux, create a global state for your font, and all your component will listen to the font value stored in the store.

A: Let's keep it abstract. How I would do it: create and assign a theme for your app where you define classes with different font-sizes etc. Save the preferences as classes in the async storage. After loading the up retrieve saved preferences from async storage and set those to your components as classes. Job done.

I decided to start making a Shoot-em-up fatty game, since I havent seen it done yet. It's a really early version so there's not much to it, but I'd love your feedback on it so far.
For me, running it windowed makes the character run all the way to the right, stuck there except brief moments that flicking my mouse get them to almost 'jump' away.
Fullscreening it with alt+enter does the same, except all the way to the left instead.
I believe the cause is the fact that on some systems, your range for the mouse to move is not centered with our monitors, and thus means we constantly trigger the movement in those directions.
If you cannot see a solution to that, perhaps simply creating an option to control with the arrow keys, or WASD, would fix the issue.
Thanks, it really helps to hear possible causes as well. This is my first game using mouse controls, so I knew that it might not work at all. Unfortunately, wasd controls are probably how I'm going to fix it, but thank you!
Decent enough proof of concept. Cautiously optimistic that it'll become a good game. I've played a lot of shmups lately, mainly Touhou, so this has been on my mind for a while now.
Thanks, glad to hear. I hope I live up to your expectations, if you have any ideas you want to throw out, I'd be glad to hear them!
While I have no idea how to program anything, I'm still hopeful in this game turning out well.


College, while critical to career and personal development, is expensive. Fortunately, there are ways for students to mitigate expenses related to higher education by way of financial aid. There are various forms of financial aid available, with the most popular being scholarships, grants and student loans.
Scholarships are a form of financial aid awarded for various reasons that help lessen the burden of higher education expenses. The most common scholarships are merit-based, need-based or athletic. Scholarships are available from many organizations, so you should acquaint yourself with the ones available through your school, company, parent's work, local communities and on scholarship database sites to make sure you aren't missing any you qualify for!
Many scholarships are offered online through college scholarship Web sites such as Students.gov. Additional information is also available at the U.S. Department of Education. Be sure to read all the information provided by each scholarship application to make sure you are eligible for the money offered. Many scholarships are offered based upon skills performed in writing, artwork, science projects and more. Some scholarships are offered to superior athletes so that athlete can perform for the college. Each offer will stipulate who is eligible for the money and the standards you must reach before and after you are considered.
Grants, unlike loans, do not have to be repaid. Grants are sometimes referred to as gift aid. Traditionally for undergraduate students, the gift amount is based on the student's need, as determined by information provided on the FAFSA, and the cost of attendance at the university the student is enrolled at.
Loans are borrowed money and repayment with interest is required. Students apply for loans in order to finance their education that they cannot cover upfront, with saved money, scholarships, grants or financial aid. Students and/or parents can take out a loan to finance higher education.
Financial aid is available to students at both traditional brick-and-mortar colleges and online colleges and universities. Browse the list of schools to find a program that best suits your needs.


Oh right, I forgot to mention the Nvidia 3D Vision stereoscopic 3D effects. Uhm... I got it set up, and I'm trying to find things compatible with it. It came with a free download of the Avatar PC game (I'd rather have a 3D version of the movie...) and some demos and slideshows. But oh! World of Warcraft already works GREAT with it!! I tried it out briefly and I was really blown away by how great the effect was!
Some of the images of games in the preview slideshow looked kind of like... Okay, this looks like Viewmaster-level stuff. But WoW really looked incredible! You can also tweak the effect a bit, but I didn't try that out yet. It's already getting me more excited about the game, especially the prospect of trying out the new Cataclysm expansion due later this year.
There's a big list of games that work with this stereo 3D, but I doubt I have any of them besides WoW, ahaha. So for me it's kinda limited at the moment, but I can't wait until there are more movies and games that can take advantage of it. It's really fun!
Yeah, the Nvidia site has a big list!
Oh man, you should play Batman: Arkham Asylum with PhysX and 3D turned on. That would be super pawesome!
