I am continually amazed at the generosity of people in my life. I am so very grateful for giving spirits!
I was sliding some photos into an album of Samuel's first months of life and saw pictures I had taken of all the things people gave to us or let us use when he unexpectedly arrived in our home. We had car loads of stuff!
Today I find myself in the same boat. I am in need of a double stroller, a dresser to hold clothes for two kids (we are currently using a borrowed changing table from my parent's neighbors that they gave us last October) and a breast pump.
Friends are letting me use their double stroller and pump, saving us hundreds of dollars. I am so grateful!!
People have given us baby food when their kids no longer were eating it. People have given us clothes by the bags and boxes (for both Samuel and baby girl to be). We were able to buy a second crib for just $35 from a family that we know - what a blessing! At just 11 months Samuel will not be ready for a big boy bed :)
We feel so blessed as God continually provides in unexpected ways. And I am continually grateful at the incredible generosity of people in my life...and people I don't even know!

Charlie - Adopted!
My name is Charlie and I am 7 year old Golden Retriever mix. I am a sweet, adorable boy who really wants find my forever home. I love, LOVE people, children and dogs. Not sure about cats. I have some health issues that need to be fixed but AGK said they were going to pay for all that - like my expensive heart worm treatment. I recently had an ear surgery called TECA - which means I had part of my ear canal removed because of infection. All these things I had was the reason my family gave me up because they did not want to pay for my surgeries. Anyway, I am a happy, constant tail wagging boy who has a lot of love to give. Please consider giving me a forever home. Love, Charlie

By Alexa Gold
There's an "Ah-ha" moment that strikes all inbetweeners. It's the moment when you realize your days spent surviving on Ramen Noodles are coming to an end.
That moment hit me last summer. I started a new job as Transportation Coordinator for a Long Island day camp. As a doe-eyed and confused college student, the first two weeks in my personal desk gave me the culture shock of entering foreign territory. At 21-years-old, I managed the arrivals and departures for 38 bus routes throughout the entirety of the summer session. Mechanics, spare drivers and bus counselors were all on speed dial. It was down to me to call the shots.
While I prayed each morning for dry weather and inflated tires, I began to realize that I was ultimately responsible for each child's safety. Aside from transportation, many of the children with allergies carried an Epi-pen to and from the camp. It was my duty to collect their medications and deliver them to the nurses after all of the buses had arrived to the campsite. When one boy's epi-pens had been left behind, I had to coordinate how we would get it back to his house in the shortest amount of time. Being new to the job, I kindly asked the nurse for advice on what to do. She looked at me and said, "It's up to you, you're the boss."
And that's when it hit me. "You're the boss." Still, to this day, I don't remember how that situation worked itself out. I just remember leaving that office dumbfounded and proud at the same time. After 3 years of college classrooms, I made it to the big leagues. In that moment, I had become an adult.
"But wait!," I told myself on the drive home that evening, "I still have one year left of school." I am writing today from my off-campus house at SUNY New Paltz. To be frank, this year's classes makes me feel like a starving cat clawing on the chalkboard. The system has caged my creativity and I'm waiting to be set free. It's sometimes difficult to find excitement in "Advanced PR" when I've already worked as a senior communications manager. I spend my days longing to belong.
Isn't that what all inbetweeners do? We know that at the end of the rainbow, there's a shiny piece of paper that makes the struggle of attending presentations of worn-out jargon worthwhile. We live away from home for four years, we intern, we study abroad; only when we have our gilded diplomas are we deemed "ready."
Are we ever ready? I think we're growing every day. Maybe your "Ah-ha" moment happen will happen in Prague. Maybe your "Ah-ha" moment will happen when you learn how to bake macaroni and cheese. Whatever you do, just don't let your experiences be measured by a piece of paper.

By the C|C Whistleblower Lawyer Team
Last month, President Trump signed a $110 billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia that was negotiated by his son-in-law Jared Kushner. Mr. Kushner personally negotiated a discount for the Saudis from the American company Lockheed Martin, raising many questions as to why Mr. Kushner would put Saudi interests above American. President Trump's support for Saudi Arabia in its regional battle with Qatar (creating a public break with his own Secretary of State) only makes those questions more pressing.
The potential favoritism to the Saudis aside, there are significant humanitarian questions raised by selling weapons to the Saudis, a country that has been bombing its poorer neighbor, Yemen, with few international consequences. Senator Bob Corker, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman, stated on Monday he will not allow future arms deals until the regional conflicts are resolved. The Senate previously failed to pass a measure that would have blocked half of the Saudi arms deal out of humanitarian concern for Yemen. Whether this new congressional effort will succeed remains to be seen. In the meantime, Saudi interference in the Yemen civil war continues unabated, killing tens of thousands of citizens through ground troops, airstrikes, and now a massive cholera outbreak.
What do you think? Should Congress Block Middle Eastern Arms Deals?

Pests lurk around our property and can enter our house especially if they get the chance. If you have been suffering from pest infestation for a while, it's better to call professional exterminators of termites Fort Lauderdale who can end your dilemma by controlling the problem. There are many benefits of getting such services, and they are the following.
Keeps Diseases Out
The roaches and rodents we see roaming around the house are carriers of diseases. Most of the diseases they carry can be transmitted to humans and pets. The more pests you can see in your house, the more prone you are to the harmful effects they bring to your health. So it's important that you take this into consideration, pest control is important. Fleas, mosquitoes and cockroaches can bring deadly diseases like plague, malaria and dengue. These pests also bring bacteria and pathogens inside your home.
Reduce Allergies and Itching
Like we mentioned, pests are carries of diseases. Once they bite you, they can cause itching and severe allergies all over your body. Hiring a pest control service is important to stop stinging pests from attacking you and your family members. If you find insects like spiders, fleas, mosquitoes and bed bugs in your house especially if they come in battalion, immediately call pest control service to eliminate them.
Reduce Health Risks
Once the disease carrying insects and pests are gone from your house, the health risks they come with will also decrease. The exterminators are trained and expert when it comes to killing pests and handling the chemicals they use to kill the pests and other insects. If you try to eliminate a whole battalion of pests, the wrong process might lead to accident and will cause a massive effect to the whole household. Experts know how to handle the hazardous products to make sure that when they're doing the extermination process your family is safe.
Long-Term Health Relief
One of the best benefits you're going to get from hiring a pest control service is that you're getting a long-term solution for the infestation problem. You will be provided with more than one service. There are packages that can be divided into a certain time-interval. So if you avail such continuous set of services, you're going to enjoy complete omission of the pest for many years. This will result to a long-term health relief.
Better Sleep
Bed bugs and cockroaches can affect your sleeping pattern, especially if they always crawl around or bite you. There's no way that you can sleep soundly with creepy pests around the house. Having the pest infestation controlled will promote a better sleeping pattern for you. Aside from eliminating the health risks they bring you, pest control will also give you a peace of mind. A pest control survive will get rid of the disease-carrying pests that will interrupt your sleep. You will get such relief because you don't have to worry about pests anymore.

Sat Oct 28th 10:30am-1:00pm | $40* @ Main Street Yoga

Our session will consist of lecture, group yogasana practice, pranayama, and meditation. Cost for the workshop is $40, or * you can combine with the afternoon session for a total of $70. Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com to register.

We will do some Svadhyaya, self-inquiry and reflection, to create a Yoga Nidra practice that is unique to you. A recording of the practice will be available to all registrants to continue to work with beyond the workshop. Cost for the workshop is $40, or *you can combine with the morning session for a total of $70. Email me at email@example.com to register.

My family recently returned from our yearly camping trip to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. We slept mere yards from a cool ice-carved lake, dined next to a babbling rock-strewn feeder brook, and walked next to glacial-deposited boulders. During the day, my semi-amphibious children splashed and swam at various levels of water competency. We ate in the open air, mostly unbothered, but occasionally with the forkless hand swatting a flying intruder.
At night, the ethereal incandescence of very own Milky Way was ever present and provided a context for the connect-the-dots constellations, observable planets, and shooting stars. Far below this skyscape, each evening we started a campfire – a tiny speck of light underneath the magnificent background glow of our native galaxy. Flames leaping toward Cygnus and Polaris, the campfire provided warmth. It resonated a gentle, audible crackle to accompany the percussions of the babbling brook. And it flickered an eerie orange glow – the perfect ambiance for scary campfire stories.
We sat around the fire and I read from a book of scary tales, while my wife and the kids listened. The stories went by names like the Hook, Screaming Jenny, Piece by Piece, and Bloody Mary. The kids are young, so I edited and ad-libbed on the fly. Even with the gruesome details censored though, eyes were widened and spines were tingled.
But, as I watched my daughters listening intently, I realized, I could do better. True tales of horror and the macabre. Stories to which every parent could relate, and that can cause panic-stricken sleepless nights. We've all been spooked by stories of creepy figures in the shadows and ghosts that can't find their resting spots.
But what about authentic parental dread? – stories like these:
The first one is called The Wicked Tweens. In this cringe-worthy tale of innocence lost, the dormant puberty monster emerges from its deep dark lair. And it's pissed. No adult will be spared. But in a last ditch effort to avoid a most certain doom, our hero father, against all of his musical appetites and desires, purchases two tickets to the One Direction concert and appeases the little monster… for now – Mwaaahaahaahaa!
The Smart Phone Forevermore fast forwards to the time my daughters have left the world of play phones, and gulp, are now on the provider Family Plan. Each has a cell phone of her own. Calls are made to coordinate the next day's outfits. Statuses are updated. Pictures posted to Instagram. Texts pile up at a frenzied pace. And all the while the vile Verizon CEO mastermind cackles his evil laugh in an extravagantly-furnished and darkened corner office. And then, it happens… the first bill arrives. Arrrrggghhhh!!!
In the distant future, my oldest turns 16. And so begins the tale of The Learner's Permit and the On-Street Parking Space of Doom. Feeling confident with the basics of accelerating, braking, turning, and backing up, my kid gets behind the steering wheel and I slide in the passenger seat. It's time to learn parallel parking. The doors lock with an audible CLICK. Seat belts are engaged, mirrors are adjusted, and the insurance card is checked for currency. A bubble of dread-filled sweat forms on my brow as we begin the lesson. We approach an open on-street parking spot – between a gleaming red Audi convertible and a muddy jacked up pickup truck with an over-sized rebel flag sticker and replica male gonads hanging from the rear tow hitch. We pass the spot, stop, and the shifter is pulled toward Reverse. Nooooooo!!!!
Seventeen. As in seventeen years old. My oldest is getting ready for the prom. The Girl and the Moron from Hell is a tale of cautions optimism turned to sudden doom. You see, we've heard a lot about her prom date and we're excited for her. After all, this is that ridiculously expensive school sanctioned event of social awkwardness that every kid dreams about. But then he arrives, carrying a bunch of yellow dandelions from the neighbor's front lawn. He's listening to awful music – way too much bass and no guitar. He cannot speak in complete sentences, and the incoherent fragments are filled with grammar that would make Snoop Dog cringe. And worst of all, he's a New York Yankees fan. Runnnnnnnn!!!!
In College Tuition and the Discretionary Income Noose my second daughter enters college while the first is still an undergrad. Not content with a reasonable in-state school, she decides to enroll out-of-state… a state with high taxes… to a private school… with a near bankrupt endowment. She moves into a plush downtown dorm and begins ordering textbooks. Meanwhile, back at our home in New Jersey, the discretionary income noose tightens, and tightens, and tightens… Hellllllllp!
Afraid yet? Good. You should be. I'm shuddering as I type this…
On next year's Vermont camping trip, my daughters will be seven, five, and three. They are indescribably dear to my wife and me (it's true – I checked the thesaurus but the correct explanatory words simply do not exist). Already, I am very much looking forward to the trip – to the good times that create memories greater still. And as you can see, I have some time before my stories of teen macabre begin to unfold. But, when the sun goes down and the fire springs to life next summer – when the next campfire story time nears – I may have to turn my head and stifle a small scream.

DAMASCUS TOWNSHIP -- If you are in the market for a farm, there's one for sale in Wayne County. This isn't just any farm, but a certified organic farm that's ready to go.
In the dead of winter, there isn't much farming going on at Willow Wisp Organic Farm north of Honesdale. The owners are moving out, expanding their organic growing operation at another farm so this one's up for sale.
"Time to move on which is a little bittersweet because we love this land and love this farm and it's been really successful and productive for us," said Greg Swartz. "It's been so productive and successful, we need more land to be able to feed our customers."
Swartz gave Newswatch 16 the tour -- four greenhouses, two barns, two walk-in coolers, even enough fencing to keep the deer out. And there is a newly renovated century-old farm house.
The asking price is $500,000 to have the 12-acre organic farm ready for growing.
"So you could literally come in the spring with a little equipment and know how you could start making a living this year," said Swartz.
Willow Wisp Farm delivers a lot of its produce to a farmer's market in Callicoon, New York, a few miles away from the farm. But the majority -- 70 percent of its business -- comes from New York City, just a few hours' drive away.
"The amount of work that goes into making a certified farm takes years," said Chelsea Hill, an educator with the Penn State Cooperative Extension.
She says sales of organic products have been rapidly growing in recent years.
"There's definitely a market for anyone who's interested, especially for a farm that's already set up. What an amazing opportunity!"
Willow Wisp Farm has been on the market only a couple of weeks and Greg Swartz expects it could sell quickly.

Your first appointment will last an hour. At this appointment I will take a detailed case history from you. This will include your medical history, transgender history and lifestyle. I will take some baselines of your voice and will teach you how your voice works and will give you tailored exercises to start you on the process of feminising your voice. None of this is physically invasive.
You may be asked to consult your GP about health issues that could be affecting your voice. If your voice is hoarse I will ask that you be referred to the ENT consultant (see here)
Specialist Software
You will be asked to purchase the Student Package of Sing and See software to use to practice at home. This software is available both for PC and Mac.
Click here to be transferred to the Sing and See website for a copy of the software.
Therapy appointments will usually last half an hour and tend to include following up on previous advice and exercises to practice at home.
Therapy sessions can involve quite a lot of problem solving to work out how to make the necessary changes needed to feminise your voice and become a more complete woman.
Sometimes therapy can be quite challenging for people as they think and learn about themselves in ways they have not done before. We will explore what type of woman you are now and wish to be in the future. I will support you through this process.

How will it happen this Cow based StartUps
We have heard about many start-ups like e-commerce, home services, solar services and many more but haven't heard about cow based start-ups. After the rigorous new cow protection law, the Gujarat BJP government plans to launch Cow-Oriented Startups, and their aim to promote cow-based industry in the state.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has done the same before the start-ups launches.
These all conduction activities ranging from the cow cultivate to sale of products like cow milk, ghee, gau mutra, arak, curd, chaach, lassi, medicines, beauty cream etc. The startups will focus on promoting and branding the cow products through new mediums and they will surely will succeed.
"There is huge scope for cow rearing and making cow-based products commercially successful, this will make the employment also. So far it has not been promoted in this way. We have decided to promote cow-based startups and PM Narendra Modi's "Make in India" scheme. Soon we will invite top industrialists, chambers of commerce, various industrial associations, especially the MSME association, to make the cow-based startups a grand success. From professional cow rearing to selling cow products like cow milk, ghee, gau mutra, arak, chaan, medicines, beauty cream etc. The startups will focus on branding of cow products through new mediums." Said by Dr Vallabh Kathiriya, chairman of Gau Seva Aayog.
"There is heavy scope of improvement in such startups in rural and semi-urban areas as well as for selling cow-based products. They will sell the products online and offline in major cities. They are planning to involve women's groups who are involved in cow rearing," he said.
The aayog is also planning a statewide "Gau Sant Samellan" (gathering of saints), to raise awareness about the new cow protection law and to promote cow-based economic and conservation activities. This will seriously very beneficial for everyone, because we all know "we always pray Cows"
Let's join the hands together and hope to make a good start for the state and make it successful.

Under certain circumstances, married couples may choose to file bankruptcy as individuals, rather than as a married couple. Filing separately is completely legal. It is also possible for one of the spouses to file, and leave the other spouse off of the petition. If you are married and considering filing separately or as a single individual, it is important to remember that debt assumed while you were married may be considered joint debt. If only one spouse files, it will not relieve the non-petitioning spouse from any debt obligations that may or may not be discharged. A married couple filing as separate petitioners, or if only one spouse chooses to file, generally makes sense only if there is no joint debt.
Many couples choose to file bankruptcy prior to their divorce, or as a result of divorce. It is often advantageous to file as a married couple to eliminate the commingling of debt obligations, following your divorce judgment. If you are considering divorce, there are special rules that apply regarding your bankruptcy petition.
In most cases, married couples can save attorneys' fees and court costs by filing jointly, as both spouses can list joint and personal debt on the schedule of assets, income and debts.

Synopsis by Josh Ralske
This episode has a special Bob Hope and Bing Crosby-style opening credits sequence. The story begins with a flashback to Brian's (voice of Seth MacFarlane) puppyhood in Austin, TX, where he was taken from his mother at a puppy mill. Brian's shrink urges him to confront his feelings about his mother. When someone needs to go pick up Stewie (MacFarlane) at Lois' (voice of Alex Borstein) parents house in Palm Springs, Brian volunteers. While Brian gets blitzed at the airport bar, Stewie leaves their bags unattended, and soon the pair are stranded in Florida with no plane tickets and no cash. The pair have a series of misadventures: hot-wiring a car, flying a crop-dusting plane, and hitching a ride with migrant workers. They pass by Austin, and Brian, with Stewie in tow, takes the opportunity to investigate his past. His former owner, Luke (voice of Brian Doyle-Murray), doesn't remember Brian at first. "I was the one who could talk," Brian reminds him. Brian is distraught to learn that his mother, Biscuit, has passed on, but Luke and his wife have found a rather disquieting way of keeping her memory alive. Meanwhile, Lois and Peter (MacFarlane) try to help their marriage by watching a series of "relationship tapes" featuring the lovely Dr. Amanda Rebecca (voice of Victoria Principal), which Peter oddly seems more enthusiastic about than Lois. The episode features a musical number from Brian and Stewie. This episode, which aired in May 2000, originally featured a gag involving Stewie getting onto an airplane with a bag of weapons and making a reference to Osama bin Laden. That segment was cut from repeat airings of the show, and does not appear on the Region One DVD.

Justin Schroder officially started his musical life in 1986 in middle school band. His first instrument was saxophone. Honestly, he wanted to start with trumpet, but his momma mumbled something about saxophone so, as any momma's boy should, saxophone it was…
Upon returning to the school band program after the first summer off, Justin decided that since saxophone hurt his teeth while he played, he should stop playing. There was also a mostly irrelevant little something about everyone else knowing their scales at the first rehearsal, but that wasn't embarrassing at all.
At age 15, Justin made his first instrument purchase; a Hondo electric bass. There had been some discussion regarding Justin starting to play guitar, but since two other boys in the neighborhood were playing guitar, there was nobody to play bass.
Who knew electric bass would be that much fun anyway? Justin still loves playing bass and is especially inspired to keep playing when he hears other guitarists play bass. (Read into that what you will; Jimi Hendrix being a solid exception.)
Justin started playing guitar in 1992, but actually received his first guitar circa 1979. The first guitar was from his Dad's friend, J.W., (last name forgotten); awesomely shortened to 'J-Dub'. It was a white, strat-shaped instrument with a butterfly on the headstock.
There were pictures, of course, with more butterflies; as in collars (remember those?). Alas, those pictures were lost in a basement/molding incident to social media's great disappointment.
Anyway, having been glad to start playing bass in the '80s when the guitarists were just inhumanly fast; the '90s were a great time to learn to play guitar. There were many, not very great guitarists, all over the airwaves and on MTV.
The old MTV.
Justin played most of the new guitar music then and after two years' effort joined his first band; Tuesday's Gone. A Southern Rock band if you couldn't guess. This wasn't exactly what Justin had in mind as his first band; or second, third, or ever. However, it was a place to start and a great deal of growth occurred as Justin learned great Southern Rock songs and eventually solos.
In the years since, there have been many Rock, Jazz, Blues, and Country bands and fill-in gigs, blues societies, theatre productions, applied music classes with specialized education students, the development of community college guitar curriculum, and more…

- Prices
All prices are Free on Board (FOB) Bali in US Dollars.The prices quoted are for a limited time only. We apologize that because of the economic volatility in Indonesia, we must at times revise our prices. Some of our raw material expenses are priced in US dollars and some expenses are in Rupiah. With every change in the USD / Rp exchange rate or raw material supply, we are forced to recalculate our prices.
Therefore we will provide an initial quote and when you place an order, we must reconfirm to you whether our original prices are still valid. We will always try to hold prices to our original offer where possible, but please do not consider an order as final until we reconfirm to you.
When placing an order with Uluwatu the official order form must be used.
- Standard Colors and Sizes
Standard colors for rayon include white, black and cream. Standard colors for linen include white, black, natural. Ordering garments in the above colors of fabric may be subject to availability. Bare in mind that we are always striving to meet our customer demands, therefore please do not hesitate to ask if perhaps you are interested in using other colors and/or fabrics.
Standard sizes for items are S (small), M (medium) & L (large). Particular items are also made in P (petite / extra small), and/or R (extra large). While we prefer to supply items according to the standard sizes. We can consider producing additional sizes that may be subject to additional charges.
- Order Quantity
For items that we are currently producing, a minimum of 10 pieces per size, and per color of each style must be ordered. However, for items that are customer ordered (i.e. outside of regular Uluwatu production), a minimum of 30 pieces per size in each style and fabric must be ordered. Within those thirty pieces, three different colors may be ordered (i.e. 10pcs in White Linen, 10pcs in Black Linen and 10pcs in Natural Linen).

- Standard Packing
Garments are packed into carton boxes, and the boxes are then wrapped with a sturdy woven plastic fabric. One carton box contains approximately 100 pcs of mixed products with an average weight of 40kg per box.
- Special Requirements - subject to negotiation
These requirements should be clearly indicated on the official Uluwatu order form.
If we order special labels we must charge the entire cost of the label production because the manufacturers usually have a minimum order. We can return any unused labels to you or hold them for future production as per your instruction.
NB - Special requirements should only be applied to high volume orders.
- Shipping
As previously mentioned, our prices are FOB Bali, but we can prepay your shipping in Bali which is less expensive than Collect on Delivery (COD) shipping. Then we can include the cost of the freight in the final balance as a Cost and Freight (CNF) total.

So, last night the Armani team posted an Instagram photo of actress Alfre Woodard at the Governors Awards with a caption that read: "Idris Elba posing in a gorgeous Giorgio @armani dress at the 5th Annual Governors Awards."
Two words: EPIC FAIL.
The Italian fashion house corrected the caption, but the damage was already done. Thanks to the magic of screen shots, once you put something out over the Internet, it will never die.
But how did this happen? It's bad enough to confuse one black actress with another black actress (see: Octavia Spencer being mistaken for Sherri Shepard), but when you start interchanging genders on top of race that's when things get really ugly.
And as expected that frustration was shared with the world when Black Twitter attacked with a barage of hilarious tweets in reaction to Armani's snafu. The memes hashtagged with #ArmaniCaptions, poked fun at the major mistake by dreaming up celebrity mixups (see tweets below). While we can't stop laughing at the creative tweets, racial tensions are running high these days and Armani's typo is just another reminder of how little things have changed. Oy!
Here are a few #ArmaniCaptions we found -- silly and sad, at the same damn time:

A guide to buying a cheap coffee machine
The greatest advantage of modern day technology is that it makes life easier for us. There was a time you needed a bit of time and effort to make a great cup of coffee, but impressively, the ever-ticking hands of time have changed the story to a different one. Coffee machines are now owned by a good proportion of homes and this has made people have the choice of making coffee at their choicest time.
However, buying a coffee machine, just like any other thing, is preceded by a lot of considerations, and the most important of them is the price, at least for the average man. We all want cheap items that will offer us the best value possible; hence, this article will offer the best ways to get cheap coffee machines.
Types of Coffee Machine
The machine comes in different types and each type gives you a choice different from the others. Whether you are a first-timer or just replacing an old one, you should know that the price of the machine you buy will depend on its type. They type of coffee machines we have include:
- Pod or capsule coffee machines which are extremely easy to use. There are lots of flavours of coffee available for them, and they don't require much cleaning up. They are a relatively cheap class of coffee machines. Price ranges between $99 – $500.
- Automatic coffee machines which can be used for any ground coffee. They are easier than the semi-automatic and manual ones. They also use freshly ground beans instead of a capsule. The price here ranges from $500 to $3000; so, they are not as cheap as pod or capsule ones.
- Semi-automatic and manual coffee machines which give you ultimate means to make your coffee the way you like it. It also gives you the depth of flavour when you use fresh coffee. They are not as expensive as their automatic counterparts but yet, not as cheap as the pod or capsule type.
This classification of the different choices of coffee machines should give you a deep insight into buying a cheap but decent one.
Here are some cheap coffee machines:
- The Morphy Richards Mattino with a thermostatic hotplate which is capable of making 12 cups of coffee in just 10 minutes goes for as low as $66 at certain retailers, or even just $38 if bought directly from the company.
- The electrical Dualit coffee percolator 84036 with the heatproof handle as well as a non-drip spout can be bought for just $75 online. It is capable of making up to twelve large cups of coffee.
- The Bosch TASSIMO TAS4011 is another coffee machine with a reasonable price around $132.
These are just good examples of top coffee machines that can be purchased at a relatively low price. You can also get other ones with affordable prices in the market too.

Take Me To The Judge Just Like This
Four silent weeks have passed since that day you were so horribly victimized by the officers of the Royal Bahamas Police Force, three since we sat down and talked about it. You told me the entire story, how they barged in that Sunday morning and took you away in nothing but a towel, and kept you there at the station naked for four nightmarish hours, in the public waiting area, handcuffed, breasts exposed, having nothing at all on but a small towel over your lap.
You told me how that unknown mother spoke up for you, demanding of the four policemen on duty to allow you to put something on and how they ignored her. By that time, you said, you had gone into shock. You'd put up a struggle in the house when the constable grabbed you by the arm, tearing open that wound you have where the grandmother had burned you with a hot curling iron in a fit of dementia. The policeman said, "Get out. You think you can come in people house and take over." You tried to refuse. You told him you had nowhere to go. You tried to sheild your two terrified daughters from the invasion. And you fought back when the officer forced you out of the house in nothing but a towel. When that happened the whole neighbourhood had gathered to watch. You fought to get back inside, you were being exposed to the neighbourhood. It was beginning to feel like a gang rape. And when you put up that struggle, the officer put the handcuffs on you and hustled you down the street to the patrol car. They told you you were under arrest.
Inside the car, the godawful reality of your situation really hit you and you became panicked, you were screaming, demanding your rights, you were cussing. "You can't take me like this! I have my rights!" You were yelling these words at the two policemen. You were fighting for your life. But they ignored your pleas for some clothing, and your pleas regarding your little daughters who were being left alone. Yes, you carried on, of course you did. By then you were so afraid. When a woman is under attack, her voice is all she has. But all the hours of being naked and shackled at the Grove station eventually silenced your screaming. All you could do by then was attempt to signal your telephone number to your unknown sista-keeper who was outraged for you, but even that became too much and you gave up. With your hands in cuffs behind your back it had become too painful to hold up the towel, and so after several hours it fell. And you fell too, into a darkened numbness, coping. Still, your brave defiance remained to the end. When they finally began talking of getting you some clothes all those hours later, you looked them in the eye and told them, "Take me to the judge just like this."
When I met you the first thing I noticed that your tiny living room was entirely filled up by a writing table, covered in folders, stacks of paper, many of them covered in your words. You said, I don't know why I write, I just have to. I recognized you fully then, a sista-survivor, instinctively drawing empowerment from the sound of your own voice, and your own real and true story. I saw that you had already begun to use your divine feminine powers of creation to take hold of the Bad Thing that happened to you and transform it into your own Emancipation Song. I felt in awe of your courage, you were deeply sad but you told the story of what happened to you in gut-wrenching detail so calmly, so thoroughly. You called them by name and/or by number, the policemen who hurt you: Neilly 2319, and constable 2667 in the red and white uniform. You never faltered, you never once questioned your own credibility, I notice things like that. By the time you were finished telling your story the tears were falling, but you were not broken. "I am not trapped, I am not stuck," you were saying, "I can leave this place." As you spoke I looked at the vicious open wound across your sholder and knew a doctor had never seen to it. It began occurring to me then that this police station horror was part and parcel of your whole life, being a Bahamian woman in these violent days.
Because a Bahamian woman's life is not beautiful. The story of violence is the same for so many of your sisters, as it was for so many of your mothers and grandmothers. Beginning with the rape committed by the father. Then the years of fear and silence while they gather enough words to accuse him. Then the police investigations that result in nothing. Then the mothers protecting the rapists and throwing their daughters out into the streets, where they are homeless, and become pregnant, and pregnant again. Ending up like chattel in some man's shack taking blows and beating their own children... But you sista, you don't beat your daughters, you love and protect them as best you can, you are so strong, you are breaking the cycle even as you are bleeding. You say to me, "I want to tell my story so that this never happens again to anyone else," and as you speak the words I see you are looking directly at your youngest daughter. Because she saw the whole invasion go down, she was screaming too when they threw you out into the yard with no clothes on, she was watching in the window crying as they took her mummy away. She keeps saying to you, "Mummy, what if the police come for you again?" So many of your sisters lose their identities entirely under this kind of lifelong violence, but not you. You are resplendant with a self-awareness that is going to save you and your girls. You are writing. Writing down your story because instinctually you know the power it has to change your own life, and transform this woman-hating community into a place where we are safe, protected, honoured and never brutalized. You know that silence means consent, you are not silent, you are not consenting, you are writing, you are resisting, you will not remain a victim, you are remembering how to get yourself free.
You had the guts to make a formal complaint. The Commissioner of Police himself came to the house to take your statement. I know that wasn't easy to do sista. But you told him how the boyfriend's grandmother in repeated states of violent dementia has called the police for you many times, accusing you of trespassing. You told the commissioner, policemen at the Grove station knew of the old lady's illness, they knew when they dragged you off that Sunday morning that you were not trespassing, that you were the grandson's girlfriend and her caretaker. You told the Commissioner everything, and he promised you to investigate the matter. After that the boyfriend got pissed and will no longer let you come to the phone. I haven't spoken to you in all these weeks. The Crisis Center folks want me to let you know that all you have to do is get to Knowles House at the hospital and they will help you. Hotline volunteers there agreed with me that what happened to you at the police station was akin to rape. They say you and your girls need the special counseling and help that all women victims of violence need and must have. Activist and writer Helen Klonaris agrees that this kind of human rights abuse happened to you because you are a woman. She said in her column: "Yes, Lynn, I do believe that policemen were able to haul a defenseless, unclothed woman out of the house where she was living into a police car and to the station because they were men and she was a woman. Because forty-four years of women having the right to vote has not been enough time for Bahamian women to really challenge religious and cultural and political systems which insist on women's subordination to male bodies and male gods. If we were collectively challenging these systems, this case would have made front page news and women's groups in the country would have spoken out against an obvious abuse of power. As it is, no women's groups have publicly voiced resistance, and no female or male politicians voiced their concerns."
A collective challenge. Sista, she means all-us Free Thinking Women need to call on the Commissioner to tell us the status of the investigation. What of the accused policemen? Are they suspended? When will someone be charged? When will someone be held accountable for the human rights abuses you've survived? When will local newspaper journalists pursue and investigate this kind of story with the same zeal that they go after politicians? When we collectively demand it of them, yes. So in this letter to you I'm calling on every woman in the country to telephone the Commissioner of Police and ask him the status of his investigation into your complaint. His number is 242-325-7601. Perhaps we can also call the Complaints and Discipline Unit at 242-302-8010, or the Corruption Unit at 242-326-0142. We can also call the editors of the local papers and ask them why they do not pursue stories of human rights abuse, ask them why they care so little about what happened to you, why they never pursue stories like the unknown men we saw in that photograph about a year ago, of the two unknown men naked and shackled and beaten bloody on the floor of a prison cell. Why is police brutality a non issue with the local "press?" And, we ask, why is it that not one church leader has had spirit enough to reach out to you, or to speak out for you, or for all the many, many other women who are beaten and battered every day in this castaway place? Where is their Christ-like compassion for the ones who suffer the most? (Lets thank the Sacred Ones for writers like Helen Klonaris and Anthony White who have spoken up for you, and for all of us.)
We thinking women (and men) are also asking why Deputy Prime Minister Cynthia Pratt has maintained her Christie-like silence regarding this matter, appearing in the papers cutting more ribbons at HMS Prison, contratulating herself and her government for building a wall around that hellhole known as one of the world's worst prisons, just days after her officers committed the outrage against you. We are remembering that Pratt was once known for giving a damn about women at risk, and we demand that she speak up for you now. In fact, we call on every single woman member of parliament to break their silences and represent us, to represent you, to demand and create justice for you, to be voices for you. If they are silent, it means they consent to your violation. I call on all Bahamian women (and the men who love us) to let Cynthia Pratt and the other women members know that we will not vote for anyone who remains silent regarding this scandal. Ms. Pratt's number is 242-345-4400. It is our right and our responsibility to let her know that we do not consent to what has happened to you under her watch. And while we have Mother on the phone, lets ask her why it is still incumbent upon women victims of domestic violence to bring the charges against their abusers? Certainly this is the Crown' duty.
I am a Feminist, it matters to me that women are under seige both in the home and in the street, it outrages me that male brutality is so pervasive, and that an apparent act of terrible police brutality could happen in broad daylight on a Sunday morning against you all these weeks ago and not one person has been held accountable, not one official has been made to explain how this could happen and what they are doing about it. I want the worldwide women's movement of today to hear of your story and to join us in demanding justice for you. We call on Feminist organizations worldwide to join us in condemning the Bahamian police force's and the government's lack of action regarding your ordeal. In the meantime we stand with you saying to the patriarchy, We will not be victimized any more!
In hope and solidarity,
your sista,

Dear Sistuh Lynn, thank you for your words, for telling our sistuh's story, for carrying on, for not letting this story, like so many others, be erased by silence, by ignorance, by the patriarchal agenda... Your words need to be read by our politicians, by the media, by other columnists; they need to be taken to the streets and disseminated, like revolution... you tell the truth, sistuh, in a society that would rather hide truth... bury it in some deep hole then forget where we put it... blessed love,

I think I will be making a few phone calls myself.
thank you for your words of power.
blessed be.

My God, this story gave me chills. That poor woman. I hope your blog gets some results -- someone should be punished for this crime.
I'm going to write about it in my blog and hopefully others will, too. I'm not foolish enough to think that couldn't happen here in Honduras.

your words are encouragement to all of us.

Thank you all for caring, and for speaking up. This town (and the world) needs our womanish voices.
Blessings Be.

Hi Lynne,
I just read about this atrocity on Nicolette's site and continued reading it here on yours. How could this heinous act be allowed to happen in the Bahamas? What ever happened to common decency (hell, simple common sense)? What with her clothes on would this woman have a posed a greater threat? Maybe she could've hid a concealed weapon to "overpower" all the man power that came to arrest her. I think even a convicted murderer would've been afforded more respect than she was. Lynn, it shames me right now to be called a Bahamian-to be be lumped on the same native soil, as these pathetic mongrels, deceivers of justice. I agree we need to monitor this situation so it doesn't die a silent death.

My God! Am lost for words here.

Both a individual and collective experience of being women and violated, ignored, beated, raped, and blamed.
How is Sistah? What came of this?

MRI-Guided Breast Biopsy
Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MRI-Guided Breast Biopsy technology is used to help guide the Radiologist to the area of concern. A biopsy of the abnormal cells is not used to remove the entire lesion but to obtain a small sample of the abnormality for laboratory analysis. A biopsy under MRI guidance may be used when there is a suspicious mass not identified by other imaging techniques.

Computing with Decimal Fractions
It is possible to add, subtract, multiply, and divide with fractions just as with whole numbers. These operations are more easily done with decimals, because the procedures are quite similar to using whole numbers. The difference comes in remembering the right placement of the decimal point. It must also be noted that in addition or subtraction, each of the numbers must have the same number of decimal places. To add or subtract uneven decimals, zeros…

Do you know how you can increase your productivity?
Do you know how you can do more with less (time)?
Do you know how you can be better and faster (though not necessarily cheaper)?
The three-step answers can be surprisingly simple. They are:
1) Shut up – at least during the time when you need to complete the task at hand.
2) Shut down – all Facebook, Twitter, Blog, MSN, Gmail, and Youtube windows on your computer/mobile screens.
3) Shut out – all unnecessary chatter, gossips, music and other auditory/visual/olfactory distractions.
In an open office environment, this can be fiendishly difficult. After all, one should mingle with one's coworkers and colleagues, catch up with each other on a social level, and establish camaraderie and esprit de corps.
There will also be meetings, discussions and brainstorming sessions that we need to participate in. Plus, of course, the emails where one proffers deep insights, intelligent discourse and invaluable points of view.
No man or woman is an island – especially in today's context which emphasise group efforts over individual prima donnas.
However, you do need to prioritise. Trying to do everything in drips and draps is the surest way to leave everything half-baked. Or undone.
First, carve out the hours of your work day for specific activities. Establish clear goals on what you need to accomplish before the end of the work day. Stick to them as much as possible.
If you need peace and quiet to work on a particular piece of work, consider coming in earlier than the rest of the team so that you have an uninterrupted stretch to work on. The plus point is that you may get to go home earlier.
Where possible, time your coffee breaks such that you – not your colleague, buddy or the coffee lady – determine when, where and how long your social interactions should be. If checking emails are breaking your rhythm, consider doing that only during specific intervals (instead of every other minute).
Of course, you cannot just keep quiet and smile when a colleague speaks to you. That is considered rude and a huge no-no in the book on office etiquette! Well…if you really do need to focus – and the office is like a fish market – consider asking your boss for permission to work offsite in an environment where there is peace and quiet. I am sure that he or she wouldn't mind your temporary absence if the end result is better quality work in a shorter timespan.
Do you have any tips on working more productively and efficiently? Do you also agree with my points above?
Tags: personal effectiveness, productivity, time management, workplace strategies
A very timely post for the social media-overwhelmed!
I have a slightly diff method to point 3. To keep focus, I always plugged in into music or Arabic Quranic recitations. Music must be something I am very familiar with so as not to get distracted. I don't understand most of Arabic so it helps.
Also, the sight of earphones in my ears is a good sign for 'Stay Away'. But this trick only to be used when necessary, otherwise others might think you're obnoxious or unfriendly.
i agree with isman on using headphones. I use tht whn i don't wanna be disturbed. Hehe.. #2 doesn't apply to me most of the time. Unless i'm doing reports or proposals. Heh.. But my other tips for productivity would actually be to leave the office if u can, n work from another location – sometimes a change of scenery helps!

I had to tell my story cause they'd rather show you. Black kids with flies on their faces on the television.
Joana Choumali is a photographer born in 1974, currently based in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire). She studied Graphic Arts in Casablanca (Morocco) and has worked as an Art Director for McCann-Erickson, Abidjan, before embarking on career in photography. In « haabré, the last generation" she felt the need to document the last generation of people who have the body art phenomena scarifications as an expression of identity, showing both the controversy and the beauty of this traditional practice.
The reasons for getting scarifications, which is a superficial incision in the human skin, are diverse – hedonistic reasons in most parts of the world and storytelling in others. Haabré means writing in Kô language from Burkina Faso but could also stand for scarification. Social scarification, used to tell a story of tribe identity, is a tradition that has ancient origin in Africa and is a common practice in many regions on the continent. This especially in West Africa, where it replaced tattoos that show poorly on dark skin. It often takes form during a rite in which a person goes from being a child into adulthood.
Looking back even further through ancient history, patterns of scarification can be found in sculptures in Ife in South western Nigeria, which was, and still is today, the sacred city of the Yoruba people. When the city flourished artistically around the 10th century, it provided a tradition of naturalistic sculpturing with one of the findings showing a cast bronze head which is covered with thin, parallel scarification patterns that contrasts to the round features of the head. This head is believed to be a female Oni, which is a king or a ruler. Similar geometric patterns have also been used in architecture, found in farming communities on the border between Burkina Faso and Ghana. In those cases the patterns are used for wall decoration, where women paint the walls of round dwellings both inside and out with horizontally molded ridges called yidoor and long eye (long life) to express good wishes for the family. Like the sculpture of the Oni, the yidoor that consists of triangular patterns are spread over the wall in several rows. Pottery and baskets are also decorated in the same way. "When people decorate themselves, their homes, and their possessions with the same patterns, art serves to enhance cultural identity" (Stokstad & Cothren, 2011).
This is evident in different expressions, scarification being one of them, while in the western part of the globe commercial brands have become a signal of characterization, with the logo or brand name playing a significant semiotic role used to express who we are, making consumption an inevitable club where we go to practice ritual around identity.
"Haabre, the last generation" depicts men and women who have become representative of their communities through scarification. It is a practice forged around repetition, symmetry and texture as an art form.
Choumali's work also has an anthropological value in the way that she is documenting a story that is heading for an end. The arrangement reflects this issue by using strong lightning to catch a moment of the subjects as they are. Speaking to us showing us both who they are and what their identity as a person is within a tribe context. The created patterns are a reminder of their culture, history and future, and they are meant to be worn proudly in the face of their skin, creating an abundance palette of texture, relief and landscape on the human body.
It is of course a subject beyond esthetic wonders – yet don't we all bear a scar of some sort? Scars of age, scars of drunken nights and scars of life. It is true that some people would like to get rid of their scars because of the abnormality of the esthetic in today's society, which for some people has an impact on their feeling of pride. Being a tradition of intimate nature, the scars can cause a conflict of difference due to urbanization.
"I remember Mr. Ekra , the driver who took me to school. Ekra had large scars that marked his face from temple to chin. I found these fascinating geometric shapes, and normal at the same time. Ivorian from the east-center of the country, Ekra was not an exception. It was common to see people with various scars proudly displaying their social origins. I remember a famous minister of 'Information ', originally from northern Côte d'Ivoire, and a noted pilot commander, who also wore scarifications, and it appeared to us as banal. The years pass, and the practice gradually disappears." – Choumali.
