A Secret Keeper Girl values modesty, she surrounds herself with wise friends and she embraces Godly beauty. So, she keeps the deepest secrets of her beauty for just one man. But she also knows that she can share all of her heart secrets with her mom at any time. The coolest thing for you to know is that a Secret Keeper Girl is a masterpiece created by God.
What does the Secret Keeper Girl Live: Pajama Party Tourevent look like?
It's full of great biblical truth about true beauty and modesty but with a ton of pajama party fun! The event lasts two and a half hours. Girls will love the stage decorated with balloon sculptures, the up-beat worship times and the crazy mother-daughter showdowns as the "slumber numbers" clock clicks towards "midnight." Moms will laugh at the hilarious look at fashion during the "Totally Tubular TV Moms Show" ... which shows off the fashion of famous moms.
Everyone will embrace the fabulous fashion show featuring girls in today's hottest looks hidden under their fuzzy robes. These outfits also reflect modesty and pass the Secret Keeper Girl "Truth or Bare" Fashion Tests. Between the two fashion shows, Dannah Gresh's talented team of teachers will take the audience deeply into God's word to talk about peer pressure and internal beauty. The girls will love learning about modesty and it will stick!

Recently, the McDonalds fast food chain created a brand new item to place on their menu: The Premium McWrap. The restaurant wanted to offer something fresh, healthy, and tasty for their customers that are worried about getting a quick lunch but are also concerned about the calories.
The McWrap turns a tortilla, chicken breast filets, vegetables, and a mix of sauces into a great meal. Each McWrap comes with chicken (either crispy or grilled), spring peas, shredded lettuce, and a warm tortilla, but there are also many types of wraps that are now available. As of right now, there are three different wraps: Sweet Chili Chicken, Chicken and Bacon, and Chicken and Ranch.
“The introduction of McDonald’s new entrée line Premium McWrap is part of our ongoing effort to offer our customers new, relevant menu options and flavors they are looking for,” John Moreland, a McDonalds Owner Operator from Cape Girardeau, stated. “We know people today are looking for freshly prepared, meal options that taste great and are convenient. With its abundance of ingredients and unique flavors in an easy-to-eat package, Premium McWrap is sure to satisfy.”
The Premium McWraps start at 350 calories and the official McDonalds website (McDonalds.com) offers more nutritional information on all of their meals. The McWrap is not only a new addition, but it is on the menu to stay.

Monday, April 22nd, is the world’s celebration of Earth Day. Although the recent Earth Day campaigns included “Go Green” or “Save Energy”, the 2013 theme for tomorrow is: “The Face of Climate Change”. We usually associate the changing climate with the polar bears in Antarctica but there are many climate changes happening right before our eyes that we might not notice so easily. Floods, droughts, large storms, and hurricanes have affected the local areas, along with the rest of the United States and other parts of the world. Not only do climate changes affect the animals and their habitats, like we usually see on television, but they affect society and lifestyles as well.
Since many people believe that the changing climate will not affect their generation, it is a topic that has been overlooked and pushed aside over time. As the world changes and goes through different phases and shifts, weather patterns, wind patterns, and temperatures will eventually change for all of us.
So what does this have to do with Earth Day?
Tomorrow, many people will be spreading awareness by campaigning for a greener economy. Many companies, engineers, and entrepreneurs have already started creating new technology and gadgets that help the planet instead of hurt it. People all over the world will be celebrating the 43rd anniversary of Earth Day and they will be standing up and facing the climate change so others in their community can join them.
All of the world, different people of all different cultures will be doing things to help their environment. The students in the school systems will most likely be studying more about Earth Day and the large effect that their small acts of turning off the faucet while brushing their teeth or remembering to turn off the light switch when they leave their room can do for their environment.
Many activists will celebrate Earth Day with marches in big cities or campaigns spread far and wide to get the attention of government leaders so they can create a “Green Economy” for everyone. Others may celebrate by planting a garden or young saplings on their front yard. Whatever you may be doing in celebration of Earth Day, remember the importance that these small acts have on our community and our world.

Sikeston, Missouri - The Southeast Coalition for Roadway Safety is offering a free AARP Driver Safety class, designed for older, experienced drivers. The class will be held Thursday, May 9 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a break for lunch. It will be located at the Missouri Department of Transportation's Southeast District Office at 2675 North Main St. in Sikeston.
The class will consist of video presentations, lecture and discussion. There are no tests and will be a number of breaks. The Southeast Coalition is covering the regular class fees of $12 for AARP members and $14 for nonmembers. Advanced registration is requested. To register, please contact Regional Coalition Contact Sandra Taurone at (573) 388-1259 or via email at sandra.taurone@modot.mo.gov.
The AARP Driver Safety Program is the nation's first and largest classroom refresher course.
"It is a very informative class, which could help a driver save his/her life or the life of a loved one. While older drivers have fewer crashes than younger drivers, they are more likely to be involved in a fatal crash," said Jim Stricker, a volunteer instructor for the course.
For older drivers, risks to safe driving may arise from health changes affecting vision, hearing or reaction time.
"Safe driving is a challenge for all drivers. Within the class, we will discuss factors that particularly impact older drivers," said Stricker.
He explained during the class, attendees will discuss driving strategies that take into account the effects of aging, common crash situations and ways to reduce the likelihood of a crash. In addition, today's highway system and traffic laws will be reviewed.
"Besides serving as a great refresher course, many insurance companies give a premium discount to individuals for completing a driver safety course," he said.
For more information, please contact Taurone at (573) 388-1259 or via email at sandra.taurone@modot.mo.gov.
