This book is not just for fans of shakespeare but fans of faeries and
art as well! it has selected quotations from various works by
shakespeare that deal with faeries-and you would not believe how often
he included them in his work!!! Accompanying each selection is the most
beautiful art work-pictures used in his works by artists such as John
Everett Millais, Arthur Rackham, William Bell Scott, William Blake, and
many more. The book is only 87 pages and includes a detailed
introduction. for people who never were into shakespeare, this is an
excellent introduction. Review by member Sarah aka

It's the summer and people are traveling big time.....some are even lucky to get their drivers licenses! So I figured we could use a little help with basic driving tips. ...Donny General Driving Tips
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Always wear your seat belt--and make sure all
passengers buckle up, too.
Adjust your car's headrest to a height behind your
head--not your neck--to minimize whiplash in case you're in an accident.
Never try to fit more people in the car than you have
seatbelts for them to use.
Obey the speed limits, Going too fast gives you less
time to stop or react. Excess speed is one of the main causes of teenage
accidents.
Don't run red lights.
Use turn signals to indicate your intention to turn
or to change lanes. Turn it on to give the cars behind you enough time to
react before you take the action. Also, make sure the signals turns off
after you've completed the action.
When light turns green, make sure intersection clears
before you go.
Don't drive like you own the road; drive like you own
the car.
Make sure your windshield is clean. At sun rise and
sun set, light reflecting off your dirty windshield can momentarily blind
you from seeing what's going on.
Don't blast the radio. You might miss hearing a siren
or a horn that could warn you of possible trouble.
Make sure your garage door is completely open before
backing out of it. This was submitted by another teen who learned this one
from his dad's mistakes.
Drive into your garage straight, not on an angle.
Another teen thought her car would straighten out before she got inside,
but instead she dented the car and broke the molding on the garage.
Make sure your car has gas in it. Don't ride around
with the gauge on empty--who knows where you might get stranded.
Don't drink and drive, and don't ride with anyone who
has been drinking. Call parents or friends to take you home if you need a
ride.
Don't take drugs or drive if you've taken any. Don't
ride with anyone who has been using drugs. Even some over the counter
drugs can make you drowsy. Check label for warnings.
Don't drive with small children or even small teenage
friends as passengers in a front seat that has a passenger-side air bag.
They should be buckled up in the back seat. Recent transportation studies
show that small children may be injured by the air bags even in low impact
collisions. (Actually, it's safer not to drive with friends and kids in
the car when you're learning to drive. They can be distracting.)
Don't talk on the car phone, put on make-up, comb
your hair, or eat while driving. People who talk on car phones while
driving are four times more likely to have an accident. If you need to
make a call, pull off the road to a safe spot and park.
Don't leave your car in cruise control when you're
driving late at night or when you're tired. If you fall asleep at the
wheel, the car will crash at the speed you've set your control to
maintain. We've learned of two local teens who crashed into a tree (one
died and the other is in critical care) at 60 mph when the driver fell
asleep at the wheel.
Don't fiddle with the radio while you are driving.
It's better to wait until you can pull over and stop because even taking
your focus off the road for a few seconds could lead to an accident.
Use good quality tires and make sure they are
inflated to the right pressure (check your owners manual for what is right
for your tires and car). Many visitors to this page have recommended
radial tires and in some states, radials are ok to use in snow emergency
conditions. Check your state to see what the requirements are for driving
in snow.
Maintain your car. Bald tires, a slipping
transmission, or a hesitant engine could lead to accidents.
Use headlights during daylight driving, especially on
long stretches of desert highway and rural roads to make you more visible
to oncoming drivers.
Many visitors have suggested selecting a designated
driver when going out for a night on the town with friends. This person
does not drink and has the responsibility of getting people home safely.
(Drinking and driving DO NOT MIX)
Watch out for potholes, especially after bad weather
Be on the lookout for motorcycles, bikes, and
pedestrians
When driving to a new place, get complete directions before you go. Figure out what exits you need to take before hand. One visitor hit a divider at an exit ramp location after being told too late that this was the place to get off the highway.
