Taking an uber sacramento airport

TAKING AN UBER IN SACRAMENTO VS A TAXI! EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. It was a pivotal moment. Decision time. Call a cab or take an early morning uber in Sacramento? Okay…I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me back up to a few minutes earlier in this story.  “Natural Mystic” on my smartphone startled me awake on the eve of Thanksgiving. I reached for my cell phone and as I turned the alarm off I yelled, “F#$@!” so loud that my neighbors must have woken up. I sprung out of bed, ran into the bathroom, took a two-minute shower. Ran a comb through my hair, brushed my teeth and jumped into my clothes…all while cursing myself for hitting the snooze button a second time.  It was 6:10 a.m, I overslept an hour and ten minutes.

WIRELESS POWER CAN HELP SMART LOCKS

Ever wonder why smart locks from leading vendors – August, Danalock, Kevo, Kwikset, Schlage – don’t have an integrated video camera or two-way audio so that you can communicate with the person at your door?

Musaic: Where Music and Art Come Together – JaxCoHome

It’s called Musaic, a term created from the fusion of “music” and “mosaic,” because it’s a place where performing arts and visual arts intersect. Musaic Productions is the cheerfully colorful building on Market Street in Pascagoula that offers its students, mostly ages 5-17, a one-stop shop for honing their skills.  “The mission of Musaic is to tune and train talent, and what we want to do is to provide opportunity for students to showcase their talents,” said Musaic owner and director Leah Rollins. Musaic students can take lessons in singing, musical instruments, and musical theater, while participants in its Premiere group do it all–sing, act, dance and play instruments. Rollins herself has a wealth of experience and expertise to share as a music teacher. Rollins’ bio includes two decades of experience as a classroom music teacher, plus an extensive body of work as a professional singer and songwriter. Read More :  Where Music and Art Come Together
