People who own their own automobiles, free of debt, and face a financial emergency often obtain a 30 day loan on the title to their vehicle.  Most of these people are unable to pay the loan off within the 30 day period and renew the loan for a new 30 day period.  Due to this cycle of renew with renewal fees, what is the true interest rate that is commonly paid for these loans?

1)  25%

2)  50%

3)  75%

4)  100%

Lucy Holcombe Pickens was first to be on paper currency used in the United States. Pocahontas was second (depicted on the back) and Martha Washington was third (depicted on the front of the bill). Sacagawea, Susan B. Anthony and Helen Keller have been circulating on coins for a while now too. Further, there have been 4 more women depicted on non-circulating, legal U.S. tender: Queen Isabella of Spain, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, Eleanor Dare and Virginia Dare. Since the inception of the "First Spouses" coin collection there have been 36 more women depicted on legal, U.S. tender.

If I didn't know a couple of Mastiffs, I'dve guessed the St. Bernard, but the Mastiffs are really sweet! So, I don't know!

I've known a few of each of these breeds, so I'm going to guess the Great Dane, because each Dane I've met thought he was a lap dog.

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

All these breeds except the Mastiff appear on the most dangerous list, compiled in a 20-year study for the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association.

I guess Mexico City, which had that distinction for a while. I just don't know exactly when.

About the currency, I would say Martha Washington, too. She's just as ancient as Jefferson, Ben Franklin and the rest.

I think that Soujourner Truth is going to appear on the 20s soon, isn't she?

Yes, the attached piece of currency is fake.  :)  But, I like it.  :)

My guess is the Mocha Cookie Crumble...that's chocolate and cookies, right?? (I don't do any kind of coffee, but I'm guessing that chocolate and cookies would pack a punch!)

You are correct

Answer: B. Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino

The Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino is a hefty 590 calories, consisting of mocha sauce, vanilla syrup and Frappuccino chips, blended with Frappuccino roast, milk, and ice. The drink is topped with whipped cream and cookie crumbles.

Ya think????

Answer: D. One Direction

While all these artists rank in the top 15 of Forbes' highest-paid musicians, the now-defunct One Direction clocks in at #4, just behind musician Katy Perry, who nabbed the #3 spot, fyi.

It reminds me of when Wham broke up.

Oh the inhumanity!

For all Eternity God waited in anticipation for  You  to show up to give You a Message - YOUR INCLUDED !!! { a merry dance }?️‍?

" If you tarry 'til you're better
You will never come at all "   .. "I Will Rise" by the late great saved  Glen Campbell

If your picture of God is starting to feel too good to be true, you're starting to move in the right direction. :candle:

 

"My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite."

Romeo and Juliet
