Presenting the Coca-Cola Bears in The Catch!!
They even have part of the Seinfeld crew in here now for Acura NSX
I was super duper excited when I saw this 10 second clip. I thought hells to the ya another Ferris Bueller movie with them all groweded up.
I mean who wouldn’t think that right? RIGHT?!?
Here’s the full length commercial you will see during the SuperBowl and when I saw it I knew I was scammed. 
Considering SuperBowl ads this year are between $2.6-2.8 million for a 30 second slot and this is almost 2 1/2 minutes. I’d say it was welllllll worth it. The bear moving back and forth in the seat is fricken hilarious.
And for the puppy lovers and Star Wars fans, this ones for you!! It’s called The Bark Side.
Here’s today public safety notice. I’m beginning to be thankful I don’t usually physically go to classes or have friends like this lol
I mean, really, who would WANT friends like this. It is insane. It looks like while one car was being stolen in the Romeo lot this was happening about the same time in another lot.
On Wednesday, January 18, 2012, at approximately 2:00 pm, a student was allegedly robbed at gunpoint inside his vehicle by the passenger who was a known acquaintance. The incident occurred in the parking lot behind Building 800. The victim alleges that the robber stole $220 in cash, an iPhone valued at $400, and a commemorative knife valued at $500. It has not been determined if the alleged robber is a TTC student. Since this incident allegedly occurred between two individuals who knew each other, there does not appear to be an on-going threat to the remaining public. An active criminal investigation is being conducted by Public Safety.
Every now and then I get e-mails from public safety at the college. They usually send these in mass e-mails even if some of us never step foot on campus for a class. I got a good chuckle out of todays. I mean, I feel sorry for the guy who’s car got stolen but who drives around in a car looking like this on purpose??
Today, at approximately 2:00 pm, Public Safety received a report that a student’s 1985 Burgundy Buick Electra 300 was stolen from the “Romeo” parking lot adjacent to Building 410. The vehicle is described as having a South Carolina license plate, 22 inch chrome rims, a San Francisco 49ers helmet decal on the hood, and a San Francisco 49ers license plate on the front.
Maybe they were die hard 49er fans?? Or maybe they hated the team so much they wanted the car to damage it?? Who knows but as it is a 1985 they MAY not be going far in it since it’s so old.
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
As a medical hospital employee I have spent my fair share on hold with pharmacies and insurance companies trying to get prescriptions to go through patients insurance plans. I happen to be well versed in dealing with Walgreens and Express Scripts. The battle over brand and generic medication rages on everyday because there will always be a difference in opinion of how well a certain brand medication will work verses the generic medication. It all boils down to money though. The insurance companies want to pay the least amount but then you have companies as middleman, ie Express Scripts, that are the go between the insurance companies and the pharmacies and the middleman ends up with the profit.
As of December 31, 2011 Walgreens is no longer part of the Express Scripts Program essentially due to greed and a failure to compromise. Ultimately, though, they are not seeing the big picture which is that they should be helping to ease the financial burden on patients whether it be low cost medication or ease of obtaining said medications at a local pharmacy. Walgreens offered to not increase rates but Express Scripts was having none of that.
Tricare is the insurance that the military uses which is also being affected. Walgreens even offered to separate the Tricare business from the commercial business but that offer was declined as well. I know understand why I have been calling complete medication lists for patients to new pharmacies that have Tricare insurance being serviced by Walgreens. This ends up being undo worry for parents and patients and extra work for the doctors office personnel.
Walgreens is fighting back in a sense though. They are offering their own prescription benefit plan that is affordable for humans and pets if you can believe that. Promotion price for the Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens is $5.00 for individuals and $10.00 for families (immediate family including spouse, dependents 22 and younger, and pets). This promotion price is from January 1 through 31, 2012 for new memberships and renewal memberships. You must not be receiving Medicare, Medicaid, or other federal or state health care to apply for this savings club. Walgreens is offering savings on more than 8,000 medications including discounts for diabetic supplies, nebulizers, pet prescriptions, and flu shots.

So classes started yesterday. I’m already not feeling it this semester. I actually have to physically show up to one class because it is not offered solely online. It is a mixed mode which means some of it is in the classroom and some of it is online. Okay no problem. Found a class that is after work and is only 1 day a week. I go to said class tonight which is from 6 PM to 7:21 PM. Sit down, log in, check my other classes online waiting on the instructor. 10, 15, 20 minutes go by. Still no instructor. One of the students goes across the hall to see if the instructor is in his office. No instructor. I leave by 6:30 PM. Now, online where you register for classes it is showing that the class is closed which means canceled. 
One of my other classes requires a prerequisite that I do not have as there were technically 3 options and I have 2 of the requirements done but the instructor was specifically looking for this one class so I have emailed him and am awaiting a response to see if I need to swap classes. I need to get this done before the 20th as I cannot obtain more books on my grant after that.
Then, as I technically can graduate this semester so long as I complete 3 courses including an economics course which I know I will despise I am thinking of doing a double major and now need to talk with my advisor to find out how I can make sure the classes I have already taken can go toward that other degree as well and still graduate this spring.
