text: One of the first things that you have to keep in mind when buying your first guitar is that you have to be very patient in choosing the right guitar for you. You do not have to decide to buy one right away. It may take you at least two trips to the music store before you can be sure which specific guitar to buy. You can also choose to visit different online stores first so that you will know the choices that are available for you including the dean acoustic bass at WWBW. This will also allow you to compare prices and see which store offers the most affordable guitars today.

When cookware and bakeware tends to wear out, and once it starts to peel and is not suitable to donate, stop before you throw it out! There are ways to recycle cookware and old pots and pans that come in handy if that time has come for your kitchen items.
The first thing to do is to check with your local recycling center. We wish it was the same for every city, but recycling guidelines vary depending on local infrastructure. Sometimes plastic cookware and utensils should not be put in your recycling bin, whereas other times it may depend on the type of plastic. That's why giving your recycling center a call helps.
If you're dealing with recycling metal pots and pans, whether it be aluminum or steel, it is more likely they can be recycled through a scrap metal facility. The plastic handles, or other parts of the cookware made from various materials, are usually able to be separated when they are processed. A steel mill, for example, reduces pollution and mining waste by 70% when it recycles scrap steel.
National Cookware Recycling Programs
The Calphalon ReNew program is available when you purchase Calphalon multi-piece cookware sets. Calphalon emphasizes on their website that over 80% of items in landfills could have been recycled. So the company provides a shipping box and prepaid FedEx mailing label to you for FREE to send your used cookware (any brand or condition) to Calphalon. They then ship it on to a recycling center and send you two reusable shopping bags that are also 100% recycled.
Plan your purchases ahead of time- Many people criticize companies that offer environmental lip service in the form of a limited recycling program only for a few short weeks around Earth Day (April 22), citing that a few weeks out of the year is not a long enough commitment to recycling. Choosing companies with responsible recycling and year-round take back programs built into their model will reduce waste overall. In addition, stainless steel usually lasts longer, and is easier to clean and recycle.
Ecolution also aims to educate the public on how to recycle old cookware.
Their website provides a list of excellent ways to reuse cookware and renew it before recycling. If you need to recycle it, they provide an entire list of recycling laws and metal recyclers around the United States. Thank you, Ecolution!
Another brand of recycled cookware is Starfrit. Starfrit cookware is made of 99% recycled aluminum a chemical-free coating for nonstick cooking. Cleaning is easy with just soap and water- nothing special if you were wondering. The cookware also conducts heat efficiently so that it uses 20% less energy when cooking.
Here's to your culinary genius and recycling commitment!

Rotary Club of MoBay East to stage prostate screening day
Karrie Williams, Gleaner Writer
WESTERN BUREAU:The Rotary Club of Montego Bay East Chapter, in association with the National Health Fund and Jamaica National Building Society (JNBS), will be staging its annual prostate cancer screening day at the Montego Bay Civic Centre on Monday, September 29.
The all-day event will begin at 9 a.m. and targets men, mainly over the age of 40, from across the Second City and neighbouring parishes. Leading urologists Dr Kamal S. Mars and Dr Tasha Cooke, who are both based at the Cornwall Regional Hospital in St James, will conduct the screenings.
With research showing that prostate cancer is now the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among adult males in Jamaica, Dr Mars is imploring men to undergo this free screening as early diagnosis offers the best treatment options.
community development
"Prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths in men worldwide and men who are of African descent have a higher risk of getting it. In addition, when they do get prostate cancer and you make comparisons to people of other races who also have the disease, men who are of African descent tend to do poorly," the senior urologist said.
In addition to fostering awareness about prostate cancer, the Rotary Club of Montego Bay East is also integrally involved in several other community development initiatives within the Second City. Earlier this year, the communities of Flankers and Cambridge benefited from a four-day dental health expo at which more than 200 dentists from overseas provided dental care for residents.
The Rotary Club of Monday Bay East falls under Rotary District 7020, which is headed by Dr Paul Brown who is also district governor. The Caribbean islands of Haiti, Turks and Caicos, Cayman Islands, St Martin, and St Thomas of the US Virgin Islands are all part of this district. The district will be hosting its annual conference from May 12-14, 2015, at the Half Moon Hotel in Montego Bay, where Rotarians from the region are expected to be in attendance.
The club meets weekly at the Sunset Beach Resort and Spa, Montego Bay, every Thursday, at 7 p.m.

Precise and perfect!
You have heard of murderers
and thieves and traitors
locked up in high towers
for their crimes
But I dare you to see
a free man suffer
in a prison of his own making
Where there are no visible walls
to lock him in
and keep us out
Here's to the little things in life! :')
I thought this morning would be like any other morning. And unsurprisingly, I was wrong. That dramatic introduction aside, let me explain why. Like all other mornings, I started today by brushing my teeth, washing my face, and going downstairs for breakfast.
I looked out the window while preparing my bowl of cereal. Yup, today looked like an awesome day: The sun was shining. The birds were singing. You know, just the ideal day.
When I'd finished pouring Honey Nut Cheerios into a bowl, I realized that my creation needed one more thing to be complete! Milk!
As I casually opened the refrigerator door to procure the missing ingredient, I gasped in the utmost horror and shock.
Was there a horrific slice of moldy pizza gnashing its teeth at me? No. Did someone take the particular morsel I was saving for later? Thank goodness, no. Then what, Anusha! What happened?!
The refrigerator light was off.

Sometimes it all comes down to a single word. A word of such profound stories yet it has none. The word lingers hindering others from progressing and as you think that the end has come, there it is; nothing.

Dental Implants in Lawrenceville
After tooth loss, promptly seeking a replacement is important for your oral and overall health. Dental implants in Lawrenceville provide a solution that is remarkably close to your natural tooth structure, halting the negative effects of missing teeth. At Gwinnett Smile Design, Dr. Alex and Dr. Pete are the experts offering several options in implant dentistry.
Dental Implant Placement and Restoration
Traditional dental implants are completed in two parts: initial surgical implantation and final restoration of each dental implant. Between the phases, the dental implant(s) fuses with the jawbone in the process known as osseointegration.
The recovery between implantation and restoration lasts from four to eight months. Once they have grown together, the implant and the jaw provide a sturdy foundation for the crown, bridge, or denture that is affixed on top with a connecting abutment.
The benefits of the dental implant are numerous, and include…
- Comprehensive tooth replacement that closely mimics the natural tooth structure
- Better oral and overall health
- No need for denture adhesives
- A long-lasting investment
The final benefit is especially significant. While dental implants cost more upfront, they often end up being the smartest financial decision you can make. Dental implants last a lifetime without replacement or refitting. Other options, like dental bridges or non-implant retained dentures, need costly adjustments over a lifetime.
All-on-4 and Teeth In A Day Dental Implants
When all the teeth have been lost in the upper or lower jaw, traditional dental implants can be prohibitively expensive and invasive. All-on-4 dental implants provide a more affordable, efficient option.
Also known as Teeth In A Day, All-on-4 supports a complete denture in the upper or lower jaw with as few as four dental implants. With significant planning and strategic placement of each implant, your dentist draws maximum strength from the jawbone to provide the patient with a new set of sturdy, beautiful teeth.
Because their positioning draws more stability from the existing bone matter, All-on-4 is also a wonderful solution for patients who would need to undergo extensive preparatory procedures to build up the volume of their jawbone in advance of dental implants. Bone augmentation adds a significant amount of time and cost to the treatment -- but All-on-4 can eliminate the need for these surgeries altogether.
Candidates for Dental Implants
People who are in good oral and overall health are typically eligible for the dental implant procedure. The All-on-4 and Teeth In A Day option allow more people to benefit from dental implants.
Still, health factors like tobacco use, gum disease, and diseases affecting the immune system increase the risk that you will not recover from the implantation. Patients dealing with these factors should consider a non-implant retained replacement. The only way to know for sure whether or not dental implants are right for you is to discuss your candidacy with Dr. Alex and Dr. Pete.
Schedule an Appointment Today!
Find out if you can benefit from comprehensive tooth replacement with dental implants! Don't wait to get started -- contact Gwinnett Smile Design to book a free consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Lawrenceville.

Her: The mom in the store that has two kids orangoutang-ing off the cart, one (at the very least) is throwing the ultimate tantrum, while the other is constantly tapping his mom over and over, going ape-cray for her attention. While mother is wild for shopping, and shopping alone. Your response: Dear Lord, lady! Control them… You have TWO. How hard can that be?! I know what would take care of that awful behavior! I'll never…..
We seem to always have the more appropriate response to discipline, to a better cooking lifestyle, healthier physique, to a more effective education, a well-balanced spiritual and emotional developmental plan… and so on.
And then…
The plight of the third born. You welcome your third blessing that seems to be a little more "active" than the others. It's as if one day, someone slaps on a perspective lens, and you see her point of view. You see her in you. You get it.
It doesn't mean you still don't believe most of what you do is the right way of doing it, because I'd hope we all do; it's a part of caring for our children the best way we possibly can, but it means… You finally let "her" off the hook. [My superheroin->]
My personal definition of who we are.
mom: one that possesses superheroin powers, class, sass, and the ability to love tiny monsters.
With that being stated, it's obvious to see that we are all in the same situation, taming a little beast, and doing the best we can, while masking our own internal monster.
Let's learn to love one another a little better. Recognizing it isn't mom against mom, but a sort of union where we can work together for the common good of our next generation. So the next time you see me, my three under four, and oh, so preg bump… Instead of passing me bye, let's send a caring smile of "I so get it", or a precious look of approval, or simply a warm word of "Keep going, mama! We can do this." And offer a gentle exit. We all need to be let off the hook every now and again.
I'm for you. You can do this. There's no better mom for your child than you. We all feel crazy sometimes. We all get overwhelmed. We all have the holy terror moments. Let's learn to love one another, and meet each other where we are. Happy belated Mother's Day to the younique job that only YOU can do!
[<- The reason I am a momma <3!!]

This is my acrylic on glass painting of a Pegasus, a horse with wings rising to the sky. I've made this after the endless discussions about the horse meat sold as beef . I thing the history is repeating and someone does what the Russians did by the 50s when they exterminated Romanian horses and used their meat for the food industry be cause they wanted to destroy all the Romanian values that they could not take.
I don't know who is killing the horses now and I cannot understand why animal rights organizations, who prevent Romanian authorities from solving the problem of the half wild and dirty dogs that live on the streets in Bucharest and other Romanian cities, don't react when it's about horses or other animals.

Does your child struggle with their writing skills? Do you have a child diagnosed with dysgraphia?
According to the website Understand for Learning and Attention Issues, Dysgraphia is a condition that causes trouble with written expression. The term comes from the Greek words dys ("impaired") and graphia ("making letter forms by hand"). Dysgraphia is a brain-based issue. It's not the result of a child being lazy. For many children with Dysgraphia, just holding a pencil and organizing letters on a line is difficult. Their handwriting tends to be messy. Many struggle with spelling and putting thoughts on paper. These and other writing tasks—like putting ideas into language that is organized, stored and then retrieved from memory—may all add to struggles with written expression."
To learn more about dysgraphia and symptoms, click here.
If your child does have difficulties with writing, the book Terrific Teddy's Writing Wars by Jim Forgan, PhD is a perfect pick! In this book, the main character Teddy struggles with his writing skills and feels like he is in a "writing war". Teddy says to himself "Even when I try my hardest, my letters were too big, too far apart, and too sloppy. That made me only want to write short, easy sentences".
Teddy tries different strategies to help improve his writing skills with no success until he meets Mrs. May. Mrs. May gives Teddy strategies and suggestions of accomodations so that he can succeed better in the classroom. At first, Teddy is embarrassed by using a pencil that looks different from his classmates, but when his writing and letter formulation are significantly improved, he appreciates having the special pencil. His teacher makes him feel even more special by having a Fun Pencil Party to give the other children in the class the opportunity to use a pencil of their choice.
I love Jim Forgan's books because he has a strategy of explaining different disabilities and disorders in a way that feels accepting, comforting and easy to understand for both children and adults. Like his other two children's books, Jim Forgan, PhD offers two optional endings to the reader. The reader has the option to discuss the term with the child (e.g. "dysgraphia") or can describe it instead of labeling the difficulty. Jim also offers suggestions to the parent in the beginning of the book on how to read the book to your child. The book is thoughtful, well written and contains important information for children with dysgraphia and their parents. In addition, it can also help raise awareness when read within a classroom setting.
Check out the author's other books including, Terrific Teddy's Excessive Energy and Terrific Teddy and the bd Mix-up. To get tips from Jim Forgan, PhD check out my interview with him here.

Novak Djokovic wins the fourth round of the US Open 2016 tournament against Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga today. The 29-year-old Serbian champion defeated the number 11 seed with 6-3, 6-2 within the two sets.
In our previous report, many fans thought that the 31-year-old Jo-Wilfried Tsonga can easily dispatch the world number one-ranked Serbian, given that he's in good condition. However, an unexpected knee injury made Tsonga suffer in the second set.
During that time, his trainer was out on the court and wrapped gauze Tsonga's left knee, specifically below his joint. At that time, many observed that he was already limping in the fifth game of the set.
ALSO READ: Venus, Serena Williams to meet in semifinals of 2016 US Open?
In the same event, it was also tough for Djokovic, but he was able to pull the game off and win the second set with three quick points. That paved the way for his triple set point.
Despite the doubts of Djokovic's win in the event, the world number one champion proved that he has recovered from successive painful injuries in the past few days before this match. When he played against number 84 seed Kyle Edmund, Djokovic's physiologist took care of his right elbow and did a 10-minute massage before he went back on the court.
Nevertheless, Djokovic proved that though Tsonga has made impressive records in the past and has defeated him in Rogers Cup 2014 and Australian Open 2010, these do not mean the situation will be the same in the US Open 2016.
The Serbian champion remained undefeated in his matches until the US Open 2016 quarterfinals, wherein he faced a stronger opponent Tsonga. Thus, he finally moves on to the semi-finals, while Tsonga retired due to his worsening knee injury.
Generally, the Serbian champion has set another stunning record of 84 games in the tournament along with nine complete set wins. This is also Djokovic's third win in five matches.

John has written two terrific posts (here and here) that referenced an "Awards Culture" at the Kansas City Star. As a former newspaper journalist myself, I have a few thoughts on the issue.
And a whole heap of mixed feelings.
There's no doubt that an Awards Culture exists at the Star and elsewhere. You can always tell when the Star is trying to win an award, and I'm positive the editors and reporters have conscious discussions about that very subject. The stories are always featured prominently, usually over several parts, and they may even include some sort of special logo to accompany each piece. These days the content continues online as well.
Here's my confession: I've done the same thing.
I wrote and assigned stories with the intention of using them to win journalism awards.
Here's the kicker, though, in my experience: writing to win awards can often produce high-quality, thoughtful journalism, but ironically, it rarely translates into actual awards.
I won several journalism awards over the course of my career, and not one of them was given to a story I wrote with the intention of winning an award.
There are a couple borderline cases, though. The most recent is a story I wrote in 2004 for the Wynne (Ark.) Progress. I was editor of that publication for about four months. During that time I met a woman named Leigh Smiley. Her son, Jeremiah, is autistic. Leigh and her husband Shannon were trying to raise $10,000 to buy a very special guide dog for Jeremiah.
After I interviewed the family, a very surreal feeling overcame me, the thought that if I wrote a good story, I was going to help this boy get his dog. But also, I thought I might win an award.
Both things happened. Jeremiah got his dog, and I won an award, honorable mention for feature writing from the Arkansas Press Association. To this day I consider the 1,300-word story the best thing I've ever written.
Another time at another newspaper, the Platte County (Mo.) Citizen, I met a historian who was chronicling the Interurban Railroad, which ran through the Kansas City area in the 1910s through the 1930s. I wrote a story about the railroad, and the historian's quest to save a historic interurban bridge. I researched the story for two months before I wrote a single word. During that process I got the feeling that I might win an award. We published the story over two parts, and afterwards we printed it up in a little booklet.
Again, I won an honorable mention for feature writing, this time from the Missouri Press Association.
That same year, something strange happened. The MPA gave out two honorable mentions in the feature writing category that year, both of them to me. The other award was for a story I wrote about a lady who built dollhouses. To me, the story was unremarkable, and certainly not written with any award intentions. I don't even remember submitting it for consideration.
And that's usually how it works. The awards are given to stories that exist organically, and not the ones created artificially just to win awards.
Every other award I've won in the business in three different states was for an "organic," not "artificial," story.
Still, though, I think there's a case to be made for writing to win awards. Let's take the Star's current feature about the Kansas City Mo. School District. Would that story have been written if the author and editors didn't hope to bag a trophy? Probably not.
If journalists are cranking out high-quality stories that engage readers and get people talking, does it really matter what their intentions are?
I don't know the answer. But the Star feature reminds me of one last incident to share.
I was once the editor of the Wednesday Magazine in south Kansas City. That job didn't last long either; I was fired for writing a column that angered an advertiser. But before that, I hatched a plan to write a year-long feature story about Southwest High School, which at the time had been converted into a charter school. I was going to chronicle the first-ever graduating class of Southwest by focusing on five extraordinary students. The five-part series would run at the beginning of each quarter and at the end of the school year. I also wanted to dive into the history of Southwest, which had produced some amazing graduates: director Robert Altman, actor Chris Cooper, authors Calvin Trillin and Evan S. Connell ("Mrs. Bridge"), and others.
The series allowed me to conduct my favorite interview of all time, a phone interview with a woman named Betty Lynn. That name probably doesn't mean anything to you. But Betty Lynn, a Southwest grad, played Thelma Lou on "The Andy Griffith Show."
That's right. I got to interview Thelma Lou.
I was canned after the second part of the series was published, and my successor didn't finish what I started.
As I stated before, I have mixed feelings about the "Award Culture." I think it can produce good quality journalism that wouldn't be done otherwise. But it's also a slippery slope, and can lead to situations like the Jason Whitlock ordeal at the Star.
This is just one man's opinion.

Nokia has announced it will cut another 10,000 jobs globally and close its only plant in Finland.
Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia also warned the second-quarter loss from its mobile phone business would be larger than expected.
This brings the total planned job cuts at the group since Stephen Elop took over as chief executive in 2010 to more than 40,000.
"These changes underline the seriousness of the challenges Nokia is facing, particularly in light of the eye-watering competition from Apple and Samsung," said Ben Wood, head of research at CCS Insight.
Nokia has said that it would book additional restructuring charges of around 1 billion euros by the end of 2013, while restructuring-related cash outflows would be around 650 million euros in the remaining three quarters of 2012 and around 600 million in 2013.
Nokia stock has crashed more than 70 per cent since it announced in February 2011 that it was dropping its own Symbian smartphone operating software and switching to Microsoft's largely untried Windows Phone system.
The company also said it would sell luxury phone business Vertu to venture firm EQT.

Lost memories leads to business idea.
When my mother, Peggy, died 13 years ago I was devastated. We were extremely close, she was my best friend, my wise and trusted advisor and more than that she was great fun to be with. With her sudden death - she had a heart attack - our wonderful relationship died, and so did my memories from the past.
There were hundreds of questions I wanted to ask about her life but it was too late, they were gone and so were the stories about my childhood – too far back for me to remember. Those precious memories from the past.
The pain of loss.
I was so distressed by her death that I became extremely ill with double pneumonia and pleurisy and nearly died myself. I spent 10 days in intensive care being pumped full of antibiotics, and then months of recovery.
As I recovered I handled her probate and as I went through her papers I began to rummage through her life. I came across my parents' marriage certificate – I know it sounds mad but I had no idea they were married on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve was always busy with getting ready for Christmas Day and trying to stay awake for Father Christmas and so in my memories from the past I never remember my parents celebrating their marriage.
Pictures from her past.
Tucked away was an album - and it was clear that she had recently organized and annotated the pictures so that I would know who were these mysterious people in sepia and black and white photographs. But it didn't explain why they were important to her.
And sadly, there were also drawers full of photographs of people who must have meant something to her but who were now anonymous. I had no idea who they were and never would, there was no-one to ask. These were all lost memories of the past.
I found her diaries, which were more appointment books but which reminded me of some lovely times we had together and which she had described as ' a lovely evening with Bryher'.
My mother's family history.
She had told me very little about her childhood – I knew her family were very poor and it had been tough. Apparently, unlike my mother, my grandmother was a very difficult woman.
Then I found a story written by her. It was on yellowing paper and typed on a very old fashioned typewriter. It told of jumble sales held at the Methodist Hall where her father was the caretaker. She described how she would sneak into the hall before it opened and try on hats with magnificent feathers, or teeter on high heels, only to tear them off and put them back when the doors opened and the sale began.
The more papers I rummaged through the more the pieces of my mother's life came together but there were still acres of her life that were a complete blank, for instance. how did she do at school? I knew that she had had some kind of break down during the war but I didn't any more about it. I knew practically nothing of my grandparents.
A friend from the past.
I was desperate to see if I could find out more and so I contacted her best friend Betty, who now lived in California and flew out to meet her and for us to talk about the woman we both loved very deeply. We talked about her for hours – she told me many memories from the past including how my parents met at a dance shortly after the end of the war.
My father had been a Japanese prisoner of war, he was very handsome and swept my mother off her feet. She had rushed into the hairdressers where Betty was having her hair done to say how she had met this magnificent man.
Betty told me how she had passed the exam to get into the grammar school but my mother hadn't and how for a while my mother shunned Betty because she felt Betty would look down on her. In fact they were life-long friends – they had shared so much together. I have visited Betty twice since still hungry for stories about my mother's life before I was born.
An exceptional woman.
My mother Peggy, was an extraordinary woman who rose from extremely humble beginnings to end up being managing editor of Home and Country, the Women's Institute magazine.
With my mother's death so much of my early life was also snuffed out – I have absolutely no memories of anything until I am about 10. What she left me was a confidence in myself and the determination to try and make a difference to people's lives.
That was why I so loved working on BBC One's programme 'That's Life!', It was everything she and I believed in. It was fun but it had at its core stories that could help inform millions of people and help protect them and their families.
So after her death 13 years ago I began working on the idea that everyone should be able to write their life story for their family. They should all be able to hold on the their memories from the past. I thought of being a ghost writer but quickly realized how expensive each book would have to be to make a living.
And so I began to use all the skills I had built up during my 40 years of work to devise a unique online system. I worked at the idea in the evenings and at weekends. But it was impossible holding down a very demanding job as the Director of Communications at the Eden Project in Cornwall and concentrate on getting the idea off the ground.
Risking everything.
I decided to risk everything and five years ago and resigned from the Eden Project and started working full-time on autodotbiography.com – the business now had a name. I had never done anything like this before. I lived on my savings. Then a month after resigning I went for a routine mammogram and was told that I had breast cancer.
So now I had no job and a life-threatening disease. Going through two operations – the cancer had been bigger than they thought originally and months of treatment. I was terrified on both counts. There is nothing like facing your own mortality to spur you on. I spent nearly a year being treated for the breast cancer, but I was even more determined to make autodotbiography.com work.
Even though I was told I was one of the lucky ones and that they had caught it early, I felt as though my time was limited and during treatment I worked hard on autodotbiography.com. I used up all my life savings on the technical work that needed to be done to build the online service. And then with my husband Paul's support, we mortgaged the house.
Launching Autodotbiography.
Now, five years on, I have had my final annual check-up at the Royal Marsden and things are still looking good, and 18 months ago I launched autodotbiography.com.
I wanted it to be easy for anyone to write their life story and have a beautiful book at the end of the process. It has taken 13 years of devising and working and spending our life savings and putting our house on the line – my husband, Paul, of 36 years has been magnificent in supporting me, but then he also adored by mother.
Now anyone, even the least confident writer, can go online and answer simple questions and upload photographs and documents and autodotbiography.com does the rest, turning the answers into a professionally written, lavishly illustrated hardback book that can be handed down through the generations and keep their memory alive.
A couple of months ago I won the PRIME (Prince of Wales Initiative for Mature Enterprise for the Best New Digital Business. At 62 I am starting a whole new life and I know that my mother would be immensely proud.

Unforgiveness, I've heard it expressed,
She's long gone from this world, this first grade teacher who made my first year of school a nightmare. I would not have wished bad things for her, even if she were living to this day. My second grade teacher was much better, and the rest of my years at Underwood Elementary were pleasant enough.
