What Happens to Your Facebook Account When You Die? In 2005, college student Loren Williams was killed in a motorcycle accident. His grieving mother, yearning to feel closer to her son, wanted to use his Facebook page. More than just seeing the site, she wanted to see his correspondence, to read his messages, in hopes of understanding her son better. A 25-year-old federal law, however, barred her from accessing his account. See also: Digital media has evolved at breakneck speed, giving lawmakers little time to catch up. The 1986 Electronic Communications Privacy Act prevents disclosing stored communications unless there’s a court order. Facebook refused Williams’ mother, Karen, access to his account and even changed the password when Karen got it from a friend. License Expired When you sign up for a website, you are agreeing to terms of license, so any “assets” under that license fall under licensing rules, says Florida-based estate planning lawyer David Goldman.

*The Thrifty Home: How to Remove Hard Water I clean my sink with ajax every day after washing the dishes, but that doesn't prevent this nasty build up. I have very stubborn Utah hard water. Yes, I could just get a water softener, but my DH doesn't support me on that idea. I have tried all of the hard water products out there. To clean my faucets I had to get a little more creative. I also use vinegar on my shower heads to unclog all of the holes.
How to spray paint furniture In the last few days, I have received several emails and comments asking for a “how to” on how I paint my furniture. Honestly, every piece is different but typically we do the same few steps. I will use my dresser redo to explain things since that is where the majority of the questions came from! For this piece, it was a dark wood with a glossy lacquer of some sort over top. Then I wiped off the dust from sanding. Next, I removed all the hardware and put it in a sandwich baggie so I didn’t lose anything. Next, I took all of the drawers and put them “face up” in the grass (I like to spray in the grass because once you mow the grass all your paint goes bye-bye and you have no overspray issues or clean-up! I gave all of the drawers two coats of KILZ Spray Primer. The only issue I have found with this primer is that it can leave a little gritty texture once it dries so I used a shop rag and rubbed it off. This may be a good job for little ones that want to help Mommy! Next came the paint!

Bottle it up The best stuff in life is free. Like sunshine, blue skies and THE OCEAN…if you have access to it, that is. Which I don’t.

Sniff the Ground Before He Poops? - Vetstreet Every day, all over the world, dogs repeat the same ritual: Nose to the ground, they sniff along a dotted line of an invisible treasure map, stopping at that “X” marks the spot where they can finally get down to business. What’s with all this sniffing, anyway? The simple answer: It’s the way dogs have been communicating with one another for centuries. Scent Marking Is Serious Business Scent marking is an instinctual behavior in which a dog deposits his own odor — in the form of urine or feces — onto his environment to mark territory or make a statement. Other dogs who come upon the scent can discern a lot about fellow canines in the neighborhood. Anal Gland Aromas While urine marking is the most common form of scent marking, feces can also be used to leave a message. Since dogs can also express their anal glands when scared, the scent may also serve to alert other dogs to danger.
8 relationship myths that might surprise you There are hundreds of myths about relationships, according to Terri Orbuch, Ph.D, a Michigan clinical psychologist and author of "5 Simple Steps to Take Your Marriage from Good to Great" (Delacorte Press, 2009).
