› Find signed collectible books: 'Against Our Will: Men, Women and Rape'
"The most comrpehensive study of rape ever offered to the public...It forces readers to take a fresh look at their own attitudes toward this devastating crime."
As powerful and timely now as when it was first published, AGAINST OUR WILL stands as a unique document of the history of politics, the sociology of rape and the inherent and ingrained inequality of men and women under the law. In lucid, persuasive prose, Brownmiller has created a definitive, devastating work of lasting social importance.
Chosen by THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW as
One of the Outstanding Books of the Year [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Backlash: The Undeclared War Against American Women'
A Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for The Wall Street Journal, Faludi lays out a two-fold thesis in this aggressive work: First, despite the opinions of pop-psychologists and the mainstream media, career-minded women are generally not husband-starved loners on the verge of nervous breakdowns. Secondly, such beliefs are nothing more than anti-feminist propaganda pumped out by conservative research organizations with clear-cut ulterior motives. This backlash against the women's movement, she writes, "stands the truth boldly on its head and proclaims that the very steps that have elevated women's positions have actually led to their downfall." Meticulously researched, Faludi's contribution to this tumultuous debate is monumental and it earned the 1991 National Book Critics Circle Award for General Nonfiction. [via]

In a country where the average woman is 5-foot-4 and weighs 140 pounds, movies, advertisements, and MTV saturate our lives with unrealistic images of beauty. The tall, nearly emaciated mannequins that push the latest miracle cosmetic make even the most confident woman question her appearance. Feminist Naomi Wolf argues that women's insecurities are heightened by these images, then exploited by the diet, cosmetic, and plastic surgery industries. Every day new products are introduced to "correct" inherently female "flaws," drawing women into an obsessive and hopeless cycle built around the attempt to reach an impossible standard of beauty. Wolf rejects the standard and embraces the naturally distinct beauty of all women. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Bitch: In Praise of Difficult Women'
Elizabeth Wurtzel, an ex-rock critic for The New Yorker, won controversial fame with her bestselling 1994 memoir Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America, which described how Prozac saved the precocious Harvard grad from suicide. Her second book, Bitch is a celebration of the defiant, rock-and-roll spirit of self-destructive women through the ages: Delilah, Amy Fisher, Princess Di, and hundreds more (including the awesomely reckless Wurtzel). There is no comprehensible central line of argument, perhaps because the author did her exhaustive research and writing on a speedy Kerouacesque drug binge that, by her own admission, sent her to rehab upon the book's conclusion. But Wurtzel has the remains of a fine mind: her insights are often sharp, sometimes bitchy, and always shameless as she zooms in a very few pages from The Oresteia to O.J. to her first crush on a fictional character Heathcliff) to Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me, Richard Pryor, Chrissie Hynde, Leaving Las Vegas, Gone with the Wind, Sylvia Plath's "Daddy," Schindler's List, Oliver! Carousel, and Andrea Dworkin. Most pop culture pundits incline to grandiose blather, but Wurtzel is punchy, and her quotes are more often apt than pretentious. Bitch is like a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride in a library, with frequent rampages through the film and music archives. Like rock music, Wurtzel's prose style lives for the moment. She glories in breaking rules to bits, is never giddier than when she's saying something shocking, and apparently has no moral code except self-expression--with the attitude volume knob cranked up to 11. --Tim Appelo [via]

Adolescent girls today face the issues girls have always faced: "Who am I?" and "Who do I want to be?" Unfortunately their answers, now more than ever before, revolve around the body rather than the mind, heart, or soul. "The body is at the heart of the crisis that [Carol] Gilligan, [Mary] Pipher, and others describe.... The fact that American girls now make the body their central project is not an accident or a curiosity," writes Brumberg, "it is a symptom of historical changes that are only now beginning to be understood." The historical photos, thorough research, and political even-handedness make this a book of worth and sincerity. The Body Project is also comforting for women, adolescents, parents, lesbians, and male lovers of women--helping us sort out the roots of female insecurities, obsessions, and angst. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women And the Rise of Raunch Culture'
Ariel Levys debut book is a bold, piercing examination of how twenty-first century American society perceives sex and women. Writing vividly, she brings her readers to places she visited to make her assessment; the elevator of Playboy Enterprises with women auditioning to be Playmates in the fiftieth anniversary edition, a Florida beach where sunbathers urge a woman to take off her bathing suit for the camera crew of Girls Gone Wild, a San Francisco Italian restaurant where a lesbian worries shes not dressed up enough for her date, a CAKE party in New York, with women grinding each others pelvises in time to pulsating dance rhythms, and outside a juice bar in Oakland where a beautiful high school student shares disappointment at her experiences with sex.
Levy cleverly leads us to explore the role models women aspire to emulate. We are not pursuing the confident, self-determined, powerful, free ideal the womens liberation movement would have dreamed for its daughters. Instead, our icons are porn stars and strippers and prostitutes. Paris Hilton and Jenna Jameson flaunt their successes in the pornography industry, and in doing so seem to earn our adulation.
Levy relates our embracing of this raunchy culture to unresolved tensions thirty years ago between the sexual revolution and the womens liberation movement, and amongst feminists; joy at discovering the delights of our clitoris conflicting with disgust at pornographys objectification of women. She creates a convincing argument by analyzing a diverse spectrum of material; presents a fascinating palette of interviews with revolutionary womens libbers, nouvelle raunchy feminists, and everyday women and men. Detailed facts and recurring names are sometimes cumbersome, albeit worth ploughing through for the a-ha moments.
The reality that we model ourselves on images whose "individuality is erased" is harsh, yet Levys work is imbued with hope hope that women can celebrate their uniqueness instead of their hotness, explore their sexuality as delight rather than consume sex as currency, and succeed professionally because of their brilliant minds and personalities, not because of their brilliant bodies.--Megan Jones Ady [via]

Available alongside five other Modern Classics first published by Flamingo in the 1970s, this is a re-issue of Germaine's Greer's feminist classic. Translated into many languages, "The Female Eunuch" is a landmark in the history of the women's movement. Drawing liberally from history, literature and popular culture, past and present, Germaine Greer's searing examination of women's oppression is at once an important social commentary and a passionately argued piece of polemic.

First published in 1963, The Feminine Mystique ignited a revolution that profoundly changed our culture, our conciousness, and our lives. Today it newly penetrates to the heart of isuues determining our lives -- and sounds a call to arms against the very real dangers of a newe feminine mystique in the economic and political turbulence of the 1990s.
Three decades later, the underlying issues raised by Betty Friedan strike at the core of the problems women still face at home and in the marketplace. As women continue to struggle for equality, to keep their hard-won gains, to find fulfillment in their careers, marriage and family, The Feminine Mystique remains the seminal conciousness-raising work of our times.

What did women do in ancient Greece and Rome? Did Socrates' wife Xanthippe ever hear his dialogues on beauty and truth? How many many women actually read the histories of Herodotus and Thucydides? When pagan goddesses were as powerful as gods, why was the status of women generally so low? Why, in traditional histories, is half the population effectively invisible? This unique and important book spans a period of 1500 years - from the fall of Troy to the death of Constantine. It examines all the available evidence - literary and archaeological - and reconstructs the lives of women from all classes of society. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Manifesta: Young Women, Feminism, and the Future'
A powerful indictment from within of the current state of feminism, and a passionate call to armsFrom Lilith Fair to Buffy the Vampire Slayer to the WNBA--everywhere you look, girl culture is clearly ascendant. Young women live by feminism's goals, yet feminism itself is undeniably at a crossroads; "girl power" feminists appear to be obsessed with personal empowerment at the expense of politics while political institutions such as Ms. and NOW are so battle weary they've lost their ability to speak to a new generation. In Manifesta, Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards show the snags in each feminist hub--from the dissolution of riot grrrls into the likes of the Spice Girls, to older women's hawking of young girls' imperiled self-esteem, to the hyped hatred of feminist thorns like Katie Roiphe and Naomi Wolf--and prove that these snags have not, in fact, torn feminism asunder. In an intelligent and incendiary argument, Baumgardner and Richards address issues instead of feelings and the political as well as the personal. They describe the seven deadly sins the media commits against feminism, provide keys to accessible and urgent activism, discuss why the ERA is still a relevant and crucial political goal, and spell out what a world with equality would look like. They apply Third Wave confidence to Second Wave consciousness, all the while maintaining that the answer to feminism's problems is still feminism. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books'
An inspired blend of memoir and literary criticism, Reading Lolita in Tehran is a moving testament to the power of art and its ability to change and improve people's lives. In 1995, after resigning from her job as a professor at a university in Tehran due to repressive policies, Azar Nafisi invited seven of her best female students to attend a weekly study of great Western literature in her home. Since the books they read were officially banned by the government, the women were forced to meet in secret, often sharing photocopied pages of the illegal novels. For two years they met to talk, share, and "shed their mandatory veils and robes and burst into color." Though most of the women were shy and intimidated at first, they soon became emboldened by the forum and used the meetings as a springboard for debating the social, cultural, and political realities of living under strict Islamic rule. They discussed their harassment at the hands of "morality guards," the daily indignities of living under the Ayatollah Khomeini's regime, the effects of the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s, love, marriage, and life in general, giving readers a rare inside look at revolutionary Iran. The books were always the primary focus, however, and they became "essential to our lives: they were not a luxury but a necessity," she writes.
Threaded into the memoir are trenchant discussions of the work of Vladimir Nabokov, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Jane Austen, and other authors who provided the women with examples of those who successfully asserted their autonomy despite great odds. The great works encouraged them to strike out against authoritarianism and repression in their own ways, both large and small: "There, in that living room, we rediscovered that we were also living, breathing human beings; and no matter how repressive the state became, no matter how intimidated and frightened we were, like Lolita we tried to escape and to create our own little pockets of freedom," she writes. In short, the art helped them to survive. --Shawn Carkonen [via]

At adolescence, says Mary Pipher, "girls become 'female impersonators' who fit their whole selves into small, crowded spaces." Many lose spark, interest, and even IQ points as a "girl-poisoning" society forces a choice between being shunned for staying true to oneself and struggling to stay within a narrow definition of female. Pipher's alarming tales of a generation swamped by pain may be partly informed by her role as a therapist who sees troubled children and teens, but her sketch of a tougher, more menacing world for girls often hits the mark. She offers some prescriptions for changing society and helping girls resist. [via]

Surprisingly, this long essay about society and art and sexism is one of Woolf's most accessible works. Woolf, a major modernist writer and critic, takes us on an erudite yet conversational--and completely entertaining--walk around the history of women in writing, smoothly comparing the architecture of sentences by the likes of William Shakespeare and Jane Austen, all the while lampooning the chauvinistic state of university education in the England of her day. When she concluded that to achieve their full greatness as writers women will need a solid income and a privacy, Woolf pretty much invented modern feminist criticism. [via]

In The Second Sex, Simone de Beauvoir posed questions many men, and women, had yet to ponder when the book was released in 1953. "One wonders if women still exist, if they will always exist, whether or not it is desirable that they should ...," she says in this comprehensive treatise on women. She weaves together history, philosophy, economics, biology, and a host of other disciplines to show women's place in the world and to postulate on the power of sexuality. This is a powerful piece of writing in a time before "feminism" was even a phrase, much less a movement. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Sexual Politics'
"Praised and denounced when it was first published in 1970, "Sexual Politics" not only explored history but also became part of it. Kate Millett's groundbreaking book fueled feminism's second wave, giving voice to the anger of a generation while documenting the inequities - neatly packaged in revered works of literature and art - of a complacent and unrepentant society. "Sexual Politics" laid the foundation for subsequent feminist scholarship by showing how cultural discourse reflects a systematized subjugation and exploitation of women. Identifying patriarchy as a socially conditioned belief system masquerading as nature, Millett demonstrates in detail how its attitudes and systems penetrate literature, philosophy, psychology, and politics. Her incendiary work rocked the foundations of the literary canon by castigating time-honored classics - from D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's "Lover" to Norman Mailer's "The Naked and the Dead" - for their use of sex to degrade and undermine women. A new introduction to this edition draws attention to some of the forms patriarchy has taken recently in consolidating its oppressive and dangerous control." [via]

The twentieth anniversary edition of The Spiral Dance celebrates the pivotal role the book has had in bringing Goddess worship to the religious forefront. This bestselling classic is both an unparalleled reference on the practices and philosophies of Witchcraft and a guide to the life-affirming ways in which readers can turn to the Goddess to deepen their sense of personal pride, develop their inner power, and integrate mind, body, and spirit. Starhawk's brilliant, comprehensive overview of the growth, suppression, and modern-day re-emergence of Wicca as a Goddess-worshipping religion has left an indelible mark on the feminist spiritual consciousness.
In a new introduction, Starhawk reveals the ways in which Goddess religion and the practice of ritual have adapted and developed over the last twenty years, and she reflects on the ways in which these changes have influenced and enhanced her original ideas. In the face of an ever-changing world, this invaluable spiritual guidebook is more relevant than ever.

"I say vagina because I want people to respond," says playwright Eve Ensler, creator of the hilarious, disturbing soliloquies in The Vagina Monologues, a book based on her one-woman play. And respond they do--with horror, anger, censure, and sparks of wonder and pleasure. Ensler is on a fervent mission to elevate and celebrate this much mumbled-about body part. She asked hundreds of women of all ages a series of questions about their vaginas (What do you call it? How would you dress it?) that prompt some wondrous answers. Standouts among the euphemisms are tamale, split knish, choochi snorcher, Gladys Siegelman--Gladys Siegelman?--and, of course, that old standby "down there." "Down there?" asks a composite character springing from several older women. "I haven't been down there since 1953. No, it had nothing to do with [American president] Eisenhower." Two of the most powerful pieces include a jagged poem stitched together from the memories of a Bosnian woman raped by soldiers and an American woman sexually abused as a child who reclaims her vagina as a place of wild joy.

Despite scientific evidence to the contrary, as far as the health care profession is concerned the standard operating design of the human body is male. So when a book comes along as beautifully written and endlessly informative as Natalie Angier's Woman: An Intimate Geography, it's a cause for major celebration. Written with whimsy and eloquence, her investigation into female physiology draws its inspiration not only from scientific and medical sources but also from mythology, history, art, and literature, layering biological factoids with her own personal encounters and arcane anecdotes from the history of science. Who knew, for example, that the clitoris--with 8,000 nerve fibers--packs double the pleasure of the penis; that the gene controlling cellular sensitivity to male androgens, ironically enough, resides on the X-chromosome; or that stress hormones like cortisol and corticosterone are the true precursors of friendship?
The mysteries of evolution are not a new subject for Angier, a Pulitzer Prize-winning biology writer for the New York Times whose previous books include The Beauty of the Beastly and Natural Obsessions. The strengths of Woman begin with Angier's witty and evocative prose style, but its real contribution is the way it expands the definition of female "geography" beyond womb, breasts, and estrogen, down as far as the bimolecular substructure of DNA and up as high as the transcendent infrastructure of the human brain. --Patrizia DiLucchio [via]

Barbara Walker's The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets (HarperCollins, 1983) is an extremely valuable reference, based on the author's wide reading in folklore and mythology. It documents, entry by entry, the fate and historic distortion of matriarchal religion by triumphant patriarchy in the last few thousand years and makes sense of many of the seemingly senseless customs and rationalizations of creeds and beliefs of our major religions and our folkloric traditions. The Los Angeles Times called it a feminist-scholar's gold mine and a browser's delight. The San Francisco Chronicle called the book a mountain of scholarship, a vast mass of supremely documented material. The praise seems to be well-deserved. This book will encourage you to do independent research into history, anthropology, the pagan religions and other disciplines and the political struggle between the patriarchal religions and the pagan religions.

The author is not only a Jungian analyst, but a storyteller. She is steeped in the traditions of storytelling from both the Latin and the Hungarian sides of her family, and I very much enjoyed the ways in which she uses this legacy of the storyteller as healer to make her points. I never thought of storytelling in this way before, but reading this book I found it to be true. (I feel that her stories have helped heal me.) I am a storyteller myself, of a sort, so for me the book was a kind of homecoming. If you have ever wondered why fairy tales seem so cruel and peculiar, you will find the answers in this book. Fairy tales have been mangled in the translation, but this author shows you where they came from and what they are really about. While I am a huge believer in free-market capitalism, growth, business, and civilization (as opposed to back-to-nature Green-ery), I have tremendous concerns about the increasingly violent and impersonal nature of our society. This book shows you how to cultivate a healing, loving attitude toward the world without becoming a doormat--quite the contrary, it shows how love can give you more strength and power than you'll ever find in a boardroom.

Kitchen Makeover Parts 1 and 2: Open Shelves and Painting Cabinets
Now, we have our original 1960s cabinets (are you surprised, after seeing our 1960s bathroom?!), and we (and by 'we' I mean, my husband since I was 8+ months pregnant with our first when we moved in and did the kitchen!) painted the fronts only. We picked Shwerin Williams Jersey Cream, to go with our SW Pottery Red. I love Jersey Cream - it's a nice buttery creamy yellow, and complimented the red well. So the inside of the cabinets were nice and raw - I just had to clean them and fill the holes from the door hinges with wood filler (sand those spots only), prime them, then slap some white semi-gloss on them. It took what seemed like 800 coats, but was probably more like 3, maybe 4. I kept feeling like I could see the wood - I wanted to be good and sure they were nice and white! Here's what that cabinet looks like now:
I picked up a few dishes at the Dollar Tree, and had a few red bowls to include (yep, I'm still holding onto a **LITTLE** bit of red...told ya;), and threw a couple natural items, like the salad bowl and basket (which hold tupperware!) in the mix. Not 100% how I want it yet, but we'll get there.
Here's the other cabinet I did:
Then when I saw how much I loved them, I did a skinny cabinet over by the fridge - you can see it in this pic:
Here it is now - I picked up a few baskets (at the Dollar Tree! They're not the best - I want to replace them sometime, when I find the perfect baskets, but for now they'll work).
Okay. So that was Phase One of the Kitchen Project. The Open Shelves took a day - I did ONLY the open shelves, hadn't started painting the cabinets yet (even though in these pics the cabs are painted) and this is what it looked like when I was done.
It was getting close to the bewitching hour, so I cleaned up this mess and kept the pile of dishes on the Dining Room buffet table while the shelves were drying. The next morning I put the dishes away and our open shelves were complete.
The next day, I decided to tackle the upper cabinets only. This happened to fall on a Saturday, so I took full advantage of Paul being home and got it all done. We ran some errands that morning, played a while, then naptime came, and the rest of the day was yucky out, so while he kept the kids entertained, I got them painted. I just gave them a light sanding, wiped them clean, and painted, since they were such a light color to begin with. Giving them a light sanding gives them some 'teeth' - something for the paint to hold onto, instead of the glossy finish they had from the Jersey Cream. When I removed each cabinet front, I placed EACH doors' hinges, knobs, etc, in a bag and labeled the EXACT location of the cabinet. Makes it nice and easy when you know exactly what hinge goes where. I finished around dinnertime, and the next morning, I replaced all the hinges, handles, etc, which took no time at all, and since it was the Superbowl, I left Sunday at that.;)
So today...I decided to attack half of the bottom cabinets. Since it's a weekday, I don't have the luxury of spending the entire day painting, so I broke it down like this:
8:55: See the kindergartener off on the bus.
9:00: Remove all drawer pulls and hinges from half of the bottom cabinets while the other 2 kids are finishing up breakfast and playing nicely (gotta take advantage when that happens, right!?). Give them a quick sand and wipe clean. Totally ready for paint.
9:15: Get dressed, play a while, go to Mom's to borrow a table, kids play, eat lunch there, leave without said table.
12:30: Come home, put kids down for nap, bust out the paint, get rolling.
2:02: For some ungodly reason, the 2 year old, who's famous for his amazing 3+ hour naps every day of his life, wakes up. I did somehow manage to get half done though, and they dry while we go outside to play until big sis gets home at 4.
4:00: come in, kids have snack while I screw all the hinges and handles on. PLENTY of time before the madness of 5pm, when I start cooking dinner.
I have to say, this 'little bit at a time' method might be a lot longer than say, knocking it all out in a weekend, but at least there's order, and if there ain't order, this momma ain't happy!
So tomorrow I'll finish up the last of the cabinets, and they'll be completely done. Next thing I'm tackling is the backsplash. I won't ruin any surprises, so I'll keep you in suspense until then;). Then the paint and molding around the cabinets. They are far from done; I think some nice molding around them will really give them a finished look. Still haven't committed to a color for the rest of the kitchen, I just know it'll be in the blue family. Stay tuned;)
It's funny, I had always thought our cabinets were so light, but check out how nice and fresh the white looks compared to the Jersey Cream:
WOW. Can't wait to see how this all turns out. White paint is like a breath of fresh air!
So as far as the open shelving, I thank you all for your wonderful comments/advice/words of wisdom and experience. One major issue that seems to come up a lot, is the order thing. Yes, you will have to be somewhat tidy, but I only opened up a couple, I still have a few left that can go untidy;) When it comes to the plates/cups/bowls cabinets, we've always been fairly neat about those anyway, so I wasn't concerned about that. (Now, the pots/pans/baking dishes cabinets...you'd be afraid...VERY afraid.) And I just decided to put the kids' plastic plates, bowls, sippy cups in a couple of those drawers.
We're down to just one sippy cup kid, so while we used to have 1,000 of them, we have just a few left. CRAZY!!
And the favorite mugs, cups, etc. that we didn't want to get rid of, but don't look too purdy on display, I have them in this closed cabinet.
So it all works out:)
WHEW! I rambled quite a bit on this post, didn't I?! Sorry, a little excited about this whole kitchen redo!
Still a lottttt ahead of me, but it's a start!

The white is looking very fresh and airy =) I like red too and used it for so long, I finally "redded" myself out. I bet I'll get some out for Summer though? Isn't change fun? Looking forward to the big reveal ;)
PS- My mom and my sister got some of those dishes too, on the same day as I did, in another state. They must be popular! - February 6, 2012 at 6:38 PM

Thanks, Shannon! I feel like I'm getting "redded" out right now too;) I'm thinking a light blue with a few red accents - loving that combo right now! And yes, change is SO fun! A little too much fun - we've only been in this house for 5 years and I think every room has had had a makeover at least once;) That is so funny about the dishes. Love the dollar tree!

I'm not going to lie...I thought you were a bit nuts when you posted about this the other week. As the "proud" owner of the same 1960s cabinets, I just didn't see it working. But, I was pleasantly surprised. Looks good and I can't wait to see the finished product. Makes me think there is hope for my cabinets!
- February 7, 2012 at 5:09 PM
Your kitchen is beautiful. I was wondering did you prime your cabinets or just sand and paint? Our cabinets are from 1979 and we are going to paint and distress them some as well. Love your blog :)

Coloring is perhaps one of the first activities a child embarks upon on his or her educational journey, creating a foundation for creativity and a lifetime of learning. This September, coloring can also help create a financial foundation for one Georgia child. To get families thinking about financial planning, while at the same time encouraging a love of learning and creativity among children, the Path2College 529 Plan is once again holding a statewide coloring sweepstakes.
Georgia children in Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade can color Hootie the Wise Old Owl, and complete the sentence, "When I graduate, I'm going to be a ____." for a chance to win $1,529 for his or her college savings.
"We know it's important to start early and save regularly in order to build a strong financial foundation for a child's college education. That's why during College Savings Month we hold this coloring sweepstakes," said Mitch Seabaugh, director of the Path2College 529 Plan. "It's a great way to get children to dream big about what career path they will one day choose, while at the same time reminding their families to think about that future and how they can help their child get there through a college education."
Coloring sheets and official rules can be found at www.Path2College529.com. Entries must be submitted by a parent or legal guardian, post-marked by 9/30/12, and must be received by 10/5/12. One winner will be drawn at random in mid-October, and he/she will win $1,529 for his/her college savings. No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited.
In addition to the college savings contribution, the winner's school will also receive $1,000.
"Our elementary schools play such a vital role in establishing a love of learning and ensuring our children have the foundation they need to continue their education," said Seabaugh. "This award is a small token of our appreciation for that responsibility."
"With college costs continually rising, parents can easily feel overwhelmed. Research shows that a child with a college savings account is seven times more likely to go to college¹, and the Path2College 529 Plan provides busy parents with a simple and realistic way to save," said Seabaugh.

Enterprise and Public Sector organizations need to be proactive in planning for both natural and man-made disasters that could change how they deliver vital functions and services to "keep the business running".
In Case of Emergency DemoNeed Help?
Enterprise businesses and government agencies of all sizes are increasingly reliant on a variety of business applications and resources to access, store, and process critical information for their business functions. Business continuity relies on a company's ability to maintain its productivity, services, and partnerships in the event of a disaster or pandemic.
For example, pandemics such as the H1N1 virus can impact a business by requiring a company to limit social interaction between business employees, partners, and customers, in order to limit further spread of the virus. IN that situation, business employees and partners will need real-time applications that can help them function as if they were sitting in their offices. Federal mandates in Contingencies and Continuity of Operations (COOP) requires many agencies and organizations to ensure the continued availability of essential business services.
Juniper Networks Business Continuity Solutions provide the simplest, quickest—and most secure—disaster recovery plan for business continuity in the face of manmade or natural disasters.

Furthermore, the business continuity disaster recovery plan ensures that users are able to access only the areas of the network or data that they are authorized for, and no other.

Man Utd
What was your target before the season started? - Challenge for EPL and Champions League and integrate some younger talent in to our squad
Did you reach this target, if not, why? - Half and Half exceeded all expectations in the Premier league but underestimated opp to many times in europe
Best moment of the season? - Has to be the 8-2 just simply for the fact that it was so unexpected
Signing of the season? - Welbeck( I know we didn't sign him but having him this year from Sunderland has basically been like a new signing. Will be looking forward to how he performs next season. His performance vs Everton>>>>>>>>
Worst signing of the season? - No one tbh
What do you want next year? - Just to see the team move forward and stop relying on Scholes so much in midfield

This is the most popular of Morocco's imperial cities and a must-see. The setting is stunning, with ocher stucco buildings on a dry, rocky plain and the snow-peaked Atlas Mountains as a backdrop (they're not always visible). Much of the medina is surrounded by beautifully restored pinkish-red ramparts, and lovely palm gardens are interspersed among the impressive buildings, including several

I am a young American family-historian looking for information on the Levaggi's of Genoa. I am planning a trip to Italy in September and would love to do a little research while I am there if possible.
I am the grand daughter of Madeline Levaggi-- the daughter of Andrew C Levaggi who was born in 1893 and lived in Bloomington, Indiana until his time of death in 1963. His parents were Italian immigrants, Davide Levaggi (born in Genoa 3/19/1862) and Sarah Levaggi (b May 1870), whom immigrated through New York around 1882. They were living in Cincinnatti, Ohio by the time of the 1900 US census.
I believe that David died in Mezzanego while visiting family there in 1929. He had a brother named Angelo Levaggi living in Mezzanego in the early 20th century, as he is listed as the person of contact on the ship records.
I am very interested in ANY information on the Levaggi's that any one has to offer. Also, if you know a way of finding the names of Davide's parents I would be SO appreciative. I am having trouble searchign for Italian records here in the USA.

Dynasonics DTTS transducer series is designed to provide easy, low cost installation on pipe and rigid tubing sizes from 1/2" (12mm) to 2" (50mm). When matched with any Dynasonics Transit Time transmitter it can replace mechanical flow meters in applications where liquid conditions tend to damage or impede mechanical flow meter operation.
The transducer does not contact the internal liquid and has no moving parts. Because it clamps onto the outside of existing piping and tubing, there is no process shutdown, and solids pass through the pipe with no effect on the transducer. The transducer is suitable for most clean liquids or liquids containing small amounts of suspended solids or aeration, and can be used on carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, and plastic pipe materials.
The Dynasonics transit time flow meter product line includes the TFXL integral or remote mount; TFXD dedicated meter; the portable TFXP; and the TFXM multiple pipe, multiple path meter.

UNITED STATES -- The Boy Scouts of America's national executive board has wrapped up three days of meetings, but a decision on lifting its ban on gay scouts and leaders is not expected until May.
BSA is considering a change in its policy.
Under the proposal, religious and civic groups that charter each local troop would choose for themselves whether to allow gay leaders and members. The organization has faced pressure to end the ban through dwindling donations and membership numbers.
Regardless of the decision reached in May, individual troops will still have the power to uphold the ban.

Reviews of Cinnamon Jelly Belly - 16 oz
Infused with just the right amount of sizzle, these red gems are sure to delight any lover of cinnamon. Take some home today and enjoy the heat! This product is part of a Cinco de Mayo recipe!Approximately 400 beans per pound. Color as represented is as accurate as possible, depending... read more about Cinnamon Jelly Belly - 16 oz
Comments: These are so good. I absolutely crave them. All of my friends are hooked too! |
Comments: We used to purchase Jelly Belly jelly beans at a local retail store. The retail bulk bins have disappeared for unknown reasons. We now purchase on line. Best move we could have made! Product comes packaged, proportioned and above all super fresh. Thanks! |
Comments: Not too hot and not too sweet, just a fun combo of taste that will make you smile!! |
Comments: This is an after dinner snack for me. Can be addictive! |
Comments: In line with a bag of asst. Jelly Bellys, another woman asked me in what order I ate my beans. "Favorites First & one at a time" I said. She eats them that way too. My favorite is licorice but we can't buy individual flavors at our neighborhood store anymore. They replaced the Jelly Belly display with an ice machine! |
Comments: The thing that is great about it is for the snacking in-between meals. It's way better than eating a piece of hot fudge chocolate cake.............much, much better :-) |
Comments: Great to snack on. |
Comments: Love the cinnamon Jelly Bellies almost as much as I love the Sizzling Cinnamon Jelly Bellies! The advantage of the Cinnamon is I can eat more before my mouth starts burning!! |
Comments: Love the flavor of cinnamon. Not too hot just right. |
Comments: This is the perfect flavor. the sizzling cinn. is too hot, this is perfect. If you like cinnamon this is the bean for you. I think I could give up chocolate if it meant I could only pick one candy. |
Comments: Just have my Kelly's around for a snack and this dose the fix good |
Comments: I hardly ever eat just one flavor. Typically, I mix them up so I may have Cinnamon + Tangerine + Raspberry in one mouthful. Another good combination is Grapefruit and Sunkist Orange. I haven't met a combination of my favorite flavors that I didn't like. |
Comments: I keep a dish of these right next to my computer. They surprise my taste buds with sweetness and freshness.......I LOVE 'em!! |
Comments: They came fast and they are the best one |
Comments: I think the pros and cons (which were none) says it all! |

Sheltered from the north wind by a 500 meter high mountain the village and hotel complexes wander gently downward through forests of pine trees to the palms, eucalyptus and broad beaches of the east and west bays. The graciously spaced accommodation and winding pathways were not determined by the whims of ease of construction but were carefully placed according to the natural rise and fall of the terrain and the location of existing trees. The design philosophy of Hapimag Resort Sea Garden: attention to detail and environmental awareness that is exhibited in every aspect of the property. The local architecture is represented by the sharp angles of whitewashed facade combined with the abundant use of natural stone and is bot contemporarily European and at the same time traditionally Turkish. The property is divided into 3 distinct areas: the village for the Hapimag members, centrally located recreation and shopping centre Mini Bodrum and a 5 star hotel. Whether you-re a member staying in the village or a guest at the hotel, the facilities available for recreation and relaxation are endless. The property itself encompasses 3 bays, 2 of them developed for swimming and water sports, the third left untouched. For those who prefer fresh water, the Hapimag Resort Sea Garden provides 3 swimming pools, two of which are heated and all with attendant restaurants and bars. Children can swim in either of their own 2 pools or play in a supervised mini club. Hapimag Resort Sea Garden provides its guests with every activity imaginable. For those so inclined, there is little need to ever leave the complex grounds. Besides the 3 tennis courts, 2 squash courts, 2 beach volleyball fields, table tennis and billiard, Sea Garden provides mini golf as well. For the sports minded, in addition to the facilities previously mentioned, there is also windsurfing, catamaran and water skiing under the supervision of qualified water sport instructors. Add hiking, mountain biking, aerobics and other vita allegra activities and there is enough to exhaust even the most passionate sports enthusiast. Evenings are filled with different types of animation and events such as diverse musical taste, shows in the open air theatre. In striving to make Sea Garden a welcome retreat for the whole family, the active team also operates special facilities and events for children and youngsters.
Fancy a summer holiday in Bodrum? Then, the TMT Club Hotel VERA might be just the thing for you. Quietly located on the outskirts of the town, the hotel is only a few minutes' walk away from a sandy beach. Milas-Bodrum Airport is located at a distance of 37 kilometres from the hotel.

Plans are under way for a celebration honoring the life and time of poet Robert Burns, and Mount Airy Museum of Regional History officials say now is the time to make plans to attend.
The museum is hosting the annual Robert Burns Dinner at Trio Restaurant located in the Main Oak Emporium. The event is set for Jan. 26, at 6 p.m., said Matt Edwards, director of the museum.
Tickets are $50 and includes the annual toast.
Seats could sell out fast, according to the museum director.
"There is limited seating, so if you would like to come and honor Mr. Burns' contributions to his literary work along with your own Scottish heritage, please call Nancy Davis, guest services manager, at 786-4478 to make your reservations," Edwards said.
The event is filled with traditional Scottish cuisine to celebrate the life and lineage of the poet.
Traditional haggis will be served, along with a traditional dinner of roast beef, "neeps and tatties," (mashed potatoes) and a delicious Scottish dessert known as "tipsy laird."
According to Edwards, the traditional haggis dish served at the event is "as close as you can get to the haggis they eat in Scotland."
Guests will be welcomed with bagpipes performing traditional music, and the haggis dinner will be presented to bagpipe music.
"It is a fun night with dining, toasting, entertainment and regaling about the life of Scotland's own poet laureate," Edwards said. "Mr. Ryan Singleton, our guest pianist, will once again honor us by accompanying the traditional songs sung at the Burns Dinner."
An auction of what Edwards described as "unusual items" will also be held at the event.
"Proceeds from the auction will help us keep the annual Robert Burns Night alive and well," he said.

Legislators gathered with local community officials at the South Western Oklahoma Development Authority (SWODA) to present over $1 million in grant funding.
Senator Mike Schulz, Representative Harold Wright, Representative David Perryman and Representative Todd Russ presented Rural Economic Action Plan (REAP) grants and Community Enhancement of Nutrition Assistance (CENA) grants. The grant funding was part of the Oklahoma State Legislature appropriations from the last session.
Every year SWODA helps rural communities in the southwest area apply for REAP and CENA grant funding, which helps to improve the lives of citizens in rural communities, improve infrastructure and promote economic growth and stability in rural areas. After the legislature appropriations are decided, the grant funding is then awarded through SWODA.
"REAP is very important to me as a legislator," said Representative Harold Wright. "We nearly lost it a few years ago, but we as rural legislators, really stuck together to keep it in the budget. It's your taxpayer dollars, and we will continue to fight for that."
REAP grant funding is often the only resources small, rural communities can depend on to get things done. Citizens of rural communities usually have to travel to larger communities for their daily needs, and as a result pay taxes in those communities instead of their own. REAP funding is a way of giving those tax dollars back to the rural communities.
Many rural communities also help to provide nutritional meals for senior citizens through various community or volunteer programs.
"CENA funding is a staple in helping those communities to continue to provide this type of assistance to senior citizens," said James Boyd, SWODA Director of Aging Services. "This funding will help to feed approximately 900 senior citizens per week in our eight county area."
The legislators present, democrat and republican alike, all conveyed the same attitude of sticking together to serve the needs of western Oklahoma. "We all get calls from each other's districts and that's okay," said Senator Schulz. "If you have an issue, call us. We're all here to serve western Oklahoma.
Communities receiving awards include the City of Altus, Sr. Center equipment - $3,800; the Town of Blair, equipment, facility improvement, & supplies - $4,120; the Town of Eldorado, facility improvements - $525.32; the Town of Granite, equipment - $3,800; the City of Hollis, equipment - $3,000; the Senior Citizens Center of Lone Wolf, Inc., food, supplies, & utilities - $12,000; the City of Mangum, equipment - $3,000; the Roosevelt Senior Citizens Center, Inc., food, fuel, facility improvement - $6,204.60; the Warren Senior Citizens, Inc., food, equipment, utilities, supplies, & ins. - $9,000; the Town of Willow, food, facility improvement, utilities, & supplies - $2,250; the Town of Roosevelt, Sewer lift station improvements - $17,957; the Town of Headrick, Purchase of fire truck/equipment - $99,861; the Town of Blair, Waterline Replacement Project - $99,945; the City of Mangum, Purchase of oil and chip materials/street improvements - $100,000; the Town of Lone Wolf, Purchase firefighting equipment - $42,935; and the Town of Granite, street improvement project - $100,000.
