Fact of the Day: Sometimes it snows on Mars—but the snowflakes are made out of carbon dioxide, not water. The flakes don’t fall, but create a fog-like effect.

Wooden Trait of the Week:   

Alertness – Preparation and hard work put you in the best position for when an opportunity may come. Preparation does not guarantee success, but without preparation, your chances of succeeding are slim to none. And if you aren’t paying attention, watching and ready for your opportunity, failure is certain.
