California DMV Drivers License Exam Braindumps

California DMV Exam Braindumps

I'm currently studying to get my driver's license coming from another state. Here's a great list for studying I found. I just printed it out and have been studying them throughout the week. Let's see how I do!

To obtain a California driver's license you must pass a written exam consisting of multiple-choice questions. If you're 18 and over, there are 36 questions and you can get up to 6 wrong. If you're 18 and under, there are 46 questions and you can get up to 8 wrong. There are several different versions of the test, but they all use the same basic pool of questions.
Memorize the brief list of facts below, especially the bold parts, and you should do fine. This is not a complete list of questions or a cheat-sheet, just an aide to help you when the right answer is one of several common-sense responses.

Make All Links Open In A New Window in Blogger


If you compose your blog, as I do, with lots of links to other blogs and web sites, you may make it convenient for your readers to view those other blogs or web sites then return to your blog. Instead of viewing the other blog or web site in the same window, you open the other blog or web site in a new window. When your reader finishes viewing the other blog or web site, he / she simply closes the new window. The article that he or she was reading, in your blog, is right there in front of them.

You can, similarly, do this with pictures. If you want your reader to view a picture, then return to the text in your article, you open the picture in a new window.

Instead of coding each individual link to a blog, picture, or web site, you can make all links within your blog open in a new window. Simply add a "<base target='_blank' />" to your blog, in the header.

Find
<head>

And change that to:
<head>
<base target='_blank' />

But, consider this carefully. If you construct your blog heavily using hypertext, as I construct my blogs, do you really want your readers having to close a window each time they finish reading a linked article in your blog? Do this with discretion.

How to Bring Down Cholesterol



RESOURCE:

Overview

High cholesterol levels increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. While not all cholesterol is bad, high levels of LDL cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol) can result in the formation of plaque, or fatty deposits, inside arterial walls. This makes it more difficult for blood to travel through the arteries, potentially leading to coronary blockages, heart attack or death. Fortunately, it is possible to bring down cholesterol levels with lifestyle changes and medications.

Step 1

Eat a diet low in saturated fat and trans fat. While poly and unsaturated fats are healthier than saturated and trans fats, your total fat intake should account for less than 35 percent of your daily caloric intake, according to experts at the University of Michigan Health System.

Step 2

Limit your daily intake of dietary cholesterol to 300 mg or less. If you suffer from cardiovascular disease, your doctor may recommend limiting your intake to 200 mg or less each day.

Etsy Lessons Learned The Hard Way - Store Tips
So I've reached a 3 month milestone on Etsy! I've learned so much and didn't realize it until I stopped and tried to write things down. Some of this came from the forums, others from experience, and others from mistakes now corrected. Hope this can help a few people

I originally posted this list on the Etsy forums, but wanted to save it here too.

Photos

* White or gray backgrounds look great with most things. Start simple and try new things from there, but have fun and don't be scared to experiment. You can always upload new photos for a particular item.
* Blurry photos? Buy a tripod! It's the best thing for macro shots.
* Taking photos is time consuming - Making some reproducible items instead of all one of a kind items to saves on photo taking and editing.
* Silver Jewelry looks best in natural light. Avoid flash.
* Partial photos seem to work better as the main (thumbnail) image than an overall photo depending on the item.
* Don't forget the rule of thirds. Imagine a tic-tac-toe grid over your image. If you have something interesting at one of the points where the lines intersect, the photo will look interesting. This works really great for those partial thumbnail photos.
* Photoshop actions will save you photo editing time (I will write a tutorial on this sometime soon!)

Best Times to Post on Etsy...



I wanted to do some research on www.Etsy.com to find out when is the best times to post on Etsy. Here's what I've found to be the best and most helpful compilation for me:

*** Most of my sales seems to come at night (probably b/c I am on the West Coast). sometimes I get a sales right after I relist. So I wonder if the evening time frame is best? and probably Tue to Thu and Sat is best days?

*** I try to list at least every other day. I never ever list or relist in bunches. If I have 2 items to list I do one in the morning and one in the early eve. Or two different days.
I have found that for me it works best if I list in the afternoon, anywhere between 12:00 and 6:00 pm.
I am on the East Coast.
If you list in the morning, your audience will be more likely moms who stay at home and have also shops, after 5pm, ppl who are arriving home from work. So you need to try what's best for you.
Unfortunately there is no final answer.
I was told that weekends are not good to list/relist. Everyone who has daytime jobs are home doing their listings and it all gets buried too fast on the search engines.
Hope this helps. ^_^

***  I don't know if it is the best time, but it seems like every time I list at 5:00 or just before 5:00 p.m. I get a sale.

*** I do well listing on Sunday. It seems the weekend is winding down and people are on their
computers searching for that perfect handbag.

I find that Google Analytics records your traffic but people complain that they get the highest traffic when they list. That makes sense. Once they list, they get people to see their stuff and there is the traffic. (Here's the link to that: http://www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=6010032)

Please add your comments / suggestions if you have found any times / days to be helpful for you.
