I have to do a history report and i dont know if borders should be under Geography or history.
Well, at a given moment in time, a border would be geography.
You might have "historic borders" such as boundary demarcating the greatest extent ever reached by the Roman Empire, or the shape of the United States before the Louisiana Purchase — but they would still be geographic boundaries (specifically political geography, as opposed to physical geography, or religious, population, environmental… )
I have a new construction and we are going to pour the driveway soon. I’d like to have a concrete driveway with a broom finish, but on the edges have a 1-2ft exposed aggregate border. Does anyone know how we can do this or how to setup the forms? I’m confused on how to setup the pour. Ideally, we’d like to do it all in one pour. Any help would be much appreciated.
i would make sure the concrete has the right agrgate, then pour the whole thing then when it is almost set up then use plywood on the concrete then make the inside of a border, standing on the plywood pressure wash border or use a garden hose and a wire brush using the plywood as a guide
A brief introduction to the border security agency of the United States of America
Within the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or CBP, protects our nation’s borders from terrorism, human and drug smuggling, illegal migration, and agricultural pests while simultaneously facilitating the flow of legitimate travel and trade.
As the nation’s single unified border agency, CBP’s mission is vitally important for the protection of the American people and the national economy. Nearly 44,000 CBP employees work in a variety of ways to secure the nation’s borders both at and between the official ports of entry and also to extend our zone of security. Employees continually incorporate the core values of vigilance, service to country, and integrity into their actions.

One of “The Singing Cowboy”’s finest numbers, from the Republic picture “Down Mexico Way”. Written by Jimmy Kennedy and Michael Carr.
SOUTH OF THE BORDER
South of the border, down Mexico way,
That’s where I fell in love
When the stars above came out to play.
And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray
South of the border, down Mexico way.
She was a picture in old Spanish lace.
And for a tender while
I kissed the smile upon her face.
For it was fiesta, and we were so gay
South of the border, Mexico way.
Then she sighed as she whispered ‘manana’
Never dreaming that we were parting.
And I lied as I whispered ‘manana’
For our tomorrow never came.
South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candlelight
She knelt to pray.
The mission bells told me that I mustn’t stay
South of the border, down Mexico way.
Ai-ai-ai-ai (ai-ai-ai-ai)
Ai-ai-ai-ai (ai-ai-ai-ai)
Ai-ai-ai-ai

From Wiki:
“South of the Border” is a popular song describing a trip to Mexico, written by Jimmy Kennedy and Michael Carr and published in 1939 for the film of the same name starring country star Gene Autry.[1]
In the lyrics, a man looks back with regret and pain for having lied to the woman he can’t forget (”…and now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray…”) and returned for too late, just as she was preparing for marriage. The lyric is in juxtaposition with the music, which swings with syncopated joy.
The song was a hit in 1939 for Shep Fields, vocal by Hal Derwin. It has been recorded by many artists, but the best-known versions are by Autry and Frank Sinatra (1953). The song was recorded in August 1961 by Patsy Cline for her album Patsy Cline Showcase and appears on Herb Alpert’s 1964 album South of the Border.

What is the best way to hang prepasted vinyl border? I am hanging it in the bathroom. Someone told me vinyl would be better in a bathroom.
this is what I do when hanging border…
first find somewhere you can roll the whole roll of border out or a least half of it{a kitchen counter is good because you can wipe it down easily and since the roll has only 15 feet in it you do not need a lot of area]
2nd most directions say just run it threw water but if you want it to stay up,try this…get a paint brush and buy a small can of wallpaper paste,then saturate the brush in water then dip it in the paste then apply it to the border being your you liberally get it everywhere,especially the edges….
3rd you book or fold it into 2 halves where they meet in the middle,then fold and fold again until you have the border about the size and look of a book
4th start in the least noticeable corner and start hanging it…it is much easier if you have someone holding the rest of your border while you hang…
all in all its not hard just takes a little patience………..
no stupid answer
Ankara.
The country is Turkey.

The Berlin wall, as well as the walls used by the Nazi to create Jewish ghettos, were created to keep people contained. They were used to keep people from fleeing an unpopular regime.
The border fence is being erected to control entry.
The company I work for requires identification for entry; are they a bunch of Nazis?
When you buy a ticket to see a movie, there is a gate restricting entry… Is this the same as the Berlin Wall?
There is a fence around my yard. Am I Hitler? No. I just want to keep the neighbor’s dog from crapping in my yard.
The United States is our yard. We’re just trying to keep the neighbor’s dogs from crapping in our yard.
LoL!!
This to me, Isn’t about race or religion, It’s about peace & law.
Good fences make great neighbors
i have a very long narrow bedroom.
the long sides are going to be cream, and the short sides are going to be a deep, romantic, red color [so it will look more square]. I am going to have black accents, like curtains, and bedpost, and laps, etc. What color should i paint the border of the room?
border meaning crown and baseboards.
A black cherry color- something that’s an even deeper red than the walls, and reads as black in low light.
