Master Lock Holiday Safety Sweepstakes

Katie December 7, 2011 0 Comments

Master Lock wants to help you avoid any pitfalls that come with the eventful season by taking proper precautions to ensure safety and security remain top-of-mind.

Head over to the Master Lock Facebook wall to share your holiday safety and security tips and enter the Holiday Safety Sweepstakes!

Here are some safety tips from Master Lock:

• Travel Safely. Whether you’re planning a road trip or flight, be sure to take all the proper safety precautions. If driving to your destination, check tire pressure beforehand for optimal handling and traction and consider having your car winterized by your mechanic for added safety.

• Secure Your Home. During the holiday season, you’re likely to have guests coming and going from your home for a number of get-togethers. Be sure all entry points, including doors, windows and sliding glass doors, are locked before and after guests depart to help keep your family, home and valuables safe.

• Shop Smart. To stay safe while enjoying a fun holiday shopping trip to the local mall or shopping center, be aware of your surroundings. Park in well-lit areas

I was not paid to make this post, however I am entered in a contest on One2One Network to win a giftcard for posting this.

Adding Favicons to Blogger Blogs

Katie September 7, 2011 2 Comments

A while back I posted about adding favicons to wordpress and blogger blogs, which resulted in messing with a little bit of coding. I am now here to show you how blogger has changed how to add favicons to you blog and it could not be easier!

First you will need to choose what sort of icon you want as your favicon. Save this image as 100kb in size or less, or blogger will not let you upload it.

Go to the design page of your blog, and you should see the favicon tab right above your Page Element.  For my blogger blog, www.honorsocietylive.com, I chose to use the band’s medallion logo as the favicon.

Click the Edit link and the configure page will pop up.  Since my favicon was already added, I have the option to remove it and upload something new.  All you need to do is choose the file from your computer and ta-da! Once it is uploaded you will have a favicon!
Like I said, it really couldn’t be easier to add one to your blogger blog 🙂

Steven Page Mohegan Sun Wolf’s Den 9/1/11

Katie September 4, 2011 0 Comments

Thursday evening Steven Page (formerly of Bare Naked Ladies) brought his solo act to the Mohegan Sun Wolf’s Den. I won reserved tickets from KC101. While Wolf Den shows are always free, it is first come first served and seating is limited. Reserved seats also come with 4 $10 drink vouchers!

Before the show, I did not realize he was no longer with BNL. I guess I would consider myself a BNL fan (by the definition of liking their stuff), but I don’t really keep up with them.

Steven did an entertaining set, with lots of banter in between songs which I always love. He said you can spot autograph sellers because they always have a blue sharpie and how a guy asked him to sign the new BNL album that he wasn’t even on. Throughout the show I started realizing his band all looked alike – turns out they were 3 brothers! (And one told an incredibly disgusting story about a trombone that is grossing me out again just thinking about it)

During the song chorus girl he talked about how the song had no chorus (yet it’s about chorus, girl!) But he put it on the album anyway. Later he realized the chorus was hidden in the song, like the peanut butter in a peanut butter cup.

He also choked on his saliva during a song and not only mentioned it during the song, but afterwards explained why it happened (he was excited to be playing the song)

As I’m away for the weekend pics will have to come later!
