Free CSS Cheat Sheet - How to Use Cascading Style Sheets

#CSS #WebDesign #Geek #Blogging #Code #ScriptKitty #HowTo #DIY #HTML #Technology #CheatSheet 
 

   You've probably heard that CSS makes building web pages a lot easier. But how? Basically, CSS is a giant shortcut. It allows you to use one file to dictate the style of your entire webpage, instead of adding attributes to every single HTML tag. By telling the computer what to modify, and how, you save typing, save computer memory, and save a ton of hassle if you ever decide to change the style of your web page.

Contained in this FREE guide:
You Make The Rules  -- What CSS is and how to write it
Adding CSS To Your Page -- Three ways to utilize style sheets
Custom Selectors -- Use variables to stylize <div>...</div> tags & more
Cheat Sheet -- a HUGE glossary of  code based on my own personal cheat-sheet

Star Wars The Old Republic, Roleplayers' Survival Guide

#gaming #mmo #geek #starwars #swtor #swtfe #RPG #roleplay #MTFBWY #gameguide #gamergirl
 

   With The Force Awakens nearing its highly anticipated release, those of you who play MMOs may be inspired to get your Star Wars on. As far as roleplaying games go, Star Wars, The Old Republic/The Fallen Empire is pretty much the only game in town. SWTOR (Or SWTFE, as it's sometimes called since the recent Fallen Empire expansion), which has been online since December 20th, 2011, is a vast, beautifully crafted digital world set in the Star Wars universe. Since SWG's shut down on December 15th of the same year, TOR has been the go-to for MMORPG gamers to get their Star Wars fix.

   However, as many roleplayers have discovered, the game is kind of a pain in the neck to actually roleplay (RP) in. While there are features a-plenty for finding and connection with people for quests, instances, PVP, and other combat content, there's little in place for connecting roleplayers with one another.

   Fortunately, where there's a will, there's a way. If you're interested in some tips and tricks on finding RP in Star Wars the Old Republic, then read on.

      Web Design sounds pretty complicated, but it doesn't have to be. Today, tools like Wordpress and Blogger make it easy for someone with little to no knowledge of HTML to own and update a working website. However, it's still good to know a little about the coding language your web pages run on. It can make things a lot easier!

10 Foods To Fight Seasonal Allergies

#Allergies #Food #Health #Diet #Natural #FoodFriday #Wellness #HomeRemedy #HealthyFood #HealthyLiving #Vitamins
 

DISCLAIMER: The following post is for education and entertainment purposes, and is not intended to be used as medical advice. Always consult your doctor, and do your own research, before using any herbal medicine or home remedy!

   Allergies are really just a big misunderstanding. They happen when a foreign material (say, pollen) is mistaken for something harmful. Your body thinks it's being attacked, so your immune system fights back with antibodies to kill the invader. It's these reactions that cause the irritation, runny/stuffy nose, and scratchy throats associated with allergies.

   Like most things that ail the human body, this, too, can be fought with food! Here, you can learn how the ten readily-available foods featured on this list could help fight your seasonal allergies. In addition to this, I've included a list of seven allergy-fighting ingredients, and the foods that contain them; as well as a list of what foods to avoid to keep from triggering specific allergies. Curious how your diet can affect your hay fever? Read on!

Police Body Cams In-Depth

#PoliceBodyCams #SoapboxSaturday #Police #Cameras #Privacy #Transparency #Government #Politics #VideoVigilantes #LawEnforcement #ThinBlueLine
 

   With the growing tensions between law enforcement and the public, many are looking to cameras as a solution to the mutual distrust. Police body cams promise unprecedented transparency in police activity for the public. They also provide indisputable and impartial video evidence for law enforcement. However, opponents are quick to point out complications regarding privacy concerns, and the logistics of using the body cams. Would putting cameras on our police officers be as good in practice as it is in theory?
