A bachelor is supposed to live a life of clutter and untidiness unless of course, there is a Jeeves in the offing to do the cleaning up. This is an image that is long since out of date and bachelor or not, there is no longer any excuse for living in messy surroundings. With the cost of eating out going up everyday and health concerns driving more and more people towards a healthier home cooked diet, keeping a kitchen clean and tidy is becoming an increasingly important aspect of home cleaning. While it's always a good idea to use a house cleaning service on a regular basis, it's easy to keep a flat and especially the kitchen from getting too dirty between the cleaner's visits. Is the thought of cleaning up afterwards one of the main reasons why you don't cook at home? Designate a fixed counter space where you will do your work and discipline yourself to work only there. This will reduce the amount of space you need to clean. Wash pots and pans immediately after use. It's easier to do it before the oil and food particles congeal and become hard to remove. Do the cleaning while other things are being cooked on the stove. Keep doing this and when the cooking is over, you won't have more than one or two pots to clean. Once you finish eating, wash up immediately. A few plates won't take much time and once its done, you're free! The basic thing to keep in mind is to learn to multitask in the kitchen. Say you have something on the stove that will take 20 minutes to cook. You could go and watch TV during this time (and each time you cook) and get to the stage of dreading entering a kitchen in dire need of cleaning. Or you could use the twenty minute to get all the cleaning done and then relax. You have a busy life and can't be expected to devote time to home cleaning. But you can't have the cleaners in every day and you can't live in dirty surroundings. If you learn to clean up in the kitchen when waiting for something else to be completed, you'll find it becomes a habit and as time passes you will be able to do the cleaning much faster. The kitchen cleaning is only a matter of minutes a day, not hours.

"I'm so sorry "Oh my God, she's so tiny!" "When will your baby come home?" "Was it something you did?" Crickets: When silence is not golden "Look on the bright side!"A burst of optimism in a time of fear and confusion can be welcome as long as it comes in the right way, at the right time, and from the right person. But not, for instance, after you say, "My baby was born 10 weeks early and weighs 3.5 pounds. He's in the NICU, and I don't know when he'll be home." Cheery, off hand responses can minimize what you're going through in a way that can cut deep. Here are some real doozies BabyCenter moms have heard: "It's so great that your son will stay portable for longer! I wish my kid had been born so small.""At least you get to go home and sleep!""I wish my baby was here already too!""At least you don't have to go the rest of the summer pregnant!""Well, she looks fine to me." Try responding: "I appreciate your well wishes. But actually, this is a very hard time for us." "I'm so sorry the other hand, when folks respond to the news of the birth with sorrow and sympathy, that can feel pretty rotten, too. As one mom said, "This was the birth of my child and I considered it a joyful thing, even though it wasn't perfect." Try responding: "Thanks. We're hanging in. And we're so happy she's here." "Oh my God, she's so tiny!"Given that parents of preemies are obsessed with their baby's daily growth (or, worse, lack of it), drawing attention to a preemie's small size can be especially painful. A parent might be feeling proud of her baby's hefty for her 5 pounds or super sensitive about how scrawny the baby still is. Either way, it's a sore subject for most parents of preemies. It's also hard because of what those people aren't saying. "For the first two months of her life, I never heard, 'She's so cute!' Only, 'She's so tiny!'" one mom says. "It starts to get to you after a while." Try responding: "Yes, she is small, for now. We're working on it." "When will your baby come home?"When you're in the NICU, it can seem like everyone you've ever met feels entitled to a daily report with the answer to this one question foremost in their minds. Try responding: "Talking about the future is really hard right now. When we have news, you'll know." "Was it something you did?"As if the self blaming voice inside your head weren't enough, people sometimes feel compelled to diagnose the reason for your baby's premature birth. One BabyCenter mom reports: "A nutritionist told me I'd had my baby at 34 weeks because I was fat. I about cried." Another tells us, "My mom implied that my preeclampsia could have been prevented if I hadn't gained as much weight during my pregnancy." "Guilt is one of the most common emotions parents experience when their baby is in the NICU," says Gunter. "But it's not your fault." Try responding: "My doctor doesn't think so." Crickets: When silence is not goldenSaying nothing at all not calling, not emailing, not offering to help is particularly painful to parents who are looking for acknowledgment of their major life change, as complicated as it is. "Hey, did my sister call?" you might ask your spouse once the chaotic first days are past. Some people do show up but then don't know what to say. "Some friends and relatives just looked at our 2.5 pound son like he was going to die and didn't actually speak about him at all," one mom told us. Another mom said, "People were afraid to come see me in the hospital. A lot of people didn't even acknowledge my twins had been born until they came home." Try responding: Send an email: "You there? It's a really hard time right now. But this is my baby. This is the real deal. And I want you to be a part of it." What should you say? Honestly the things said that made me feel the best we when people said they admired me for being able to have a baby at 26 weeks and enduring 3 months 3 days in the NICU. I made me feel like at least I was doing something positive for my daughter other than the negative feels of guilt, blame frustration, and depression I felt every day for making her have to fight for her life. Also when people gave me compliments like, how wonderful it is that my milk came in so early and that they were impressed by how much I could produce. Or about how beautiful my baby was. Or how they complimented me on how great of a mother I was. Those things brightened up my days and made that difficult time, just a little bit easier to bear.

Air Jordan 4 Thunder 2012,Do you remember what the most important thing in your life was in late 1997? Of course you do, it was fucking GoldenEye 007. GoldenEye 007 puts you in the shoes of Ian Fleming's legendary spy, James Bond, as he murders his way across 20 levels of nonstop face shooting action. The game kicks incredible amounts of ass and was groundbreaking upon its original release in August of 1997. Boasting a large assortment of weapons, context sensitive gunshot wounds and block headed enemies, GoldenEye took the gaming world by storm. Its single player mode was praised for its mix of stealth and action, as well as its emphasis on varied objectives. No longer was your mission solely to "get the key," GoldenEye had you planting tracking devices, driving tanks, destroying missile silos, shooting people in toilet stalls and bungee jumping off of dams. GoldenEye 007 follows the plot of the film pretty closely. After a mission goes awry, Bond's partner Alec Trevelyan, agent 006, is killed in action. Bond later investigates the theft of a prototype military helicopter by the Janus crime syndicate, which also has connections to the deadly GoldenEye satellite. Upon agreeing to a meeting with the head of Janus, Bond discovers that Janus' leader is actually Alec Trevelyan. Bond must stop Trevelyan from using the GoldenEye satellite to avenge his parents' death by robbing the Bank of England and destroying Great Britain's economy. "Wah wah, my parents died and I am a huge wuss."Despite GoldenEye's awesome single player mode, what truly defines it as a game is its four way multiplayer deathmatch mode. Deathmatch mode allowed for you and three of your friends to grab your awkwardly shaped N64 controllers and do what friends do best, kill each other. GoldenEye's multiplayer lets you play as most of the characters featured in single player mode. One of those characters is Trevelyan's henchwoman Xenia Onatopp, played by Famke Jannsen, who like every other woman you know, literally gets off on killing you. Don't they all? You feel us, fellas? You also get to play as a few bonus characters taken straight from the James Bond mythos. Oddjob, Grace Jones, Jaws and Baron Samedi, fresh off his appearance in Blondie's Rapture video, all make an appearance. It had a "spiritual successor" in the game Perfect Dark and later on in the Timesplitters franchise. It was also followed by a number of sequels such as Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough, Agent Under Fire and 007 Nightfire, none of which captured the same success of GoldenEye 007, but still did well enough on their own. Although games like Doom and Quake were the first to pioneer the FPS, GoldenEye created the blueprint that most shooters have followed since.

War has been mechanized until it is in large part a contest in producing machinery. In Thomas Jefferson's day, it made sense to protect "the right to keep and bear arms," so that people could overthrow a tyrannical government. Today, the private citizen cannot keep the kinds of weapons that would serve this purpose. The Uzbekistani rebels would disagree. More seriously, it's interesting to see an encylopedia written just 13 years after the fall of Saigon state that warfare must be mechanized to defeat a government. Part of it is just mental blindness, but the tome's liberal bias compounded it. To think of it in OODA (Observe Orient Decide Act) terms, the orientations ("war is mechanized," "for safety people must be disarmed) implicitly guided the observations ("small arms cannot defeat a government"). Gun control, moreso than any other issue, is the one upon which liberals tend to be the least rational. It's an article of faith because the desire for gun control laws is a visceral reaction on the question of security vs. freedom. If you view government as omnicomptetent and good and your neighbors as children then you like gun control. If you think government is basically incompetent and at least potentially ill intentioned and your neighbors are trustworthy then you dislike gun control. ( The idea that both government and the general public tend toward incompetency is probably closer to the mark) Don't get me wrong, the gun wingnuts are also unreasonable and tempermentally extreme they just have the better of the empirical data and constitutional arguments. And using slippery slope lobbying tactics themselves they recognize it quite well in their opponents who aim for the eventual abolition of private ownership of firearms. So put me on the side of 2nd Amendment freedom. I've heard this argument presented as "The government should have an absolute monopoly on violence, and private guns take away from that." When not veering wildly off tangent, Michael Moore's "Bowling for Columbine" is a good documentary on the subject. While the second half (which criticizes gun supporters) gets the most billing, the first half (which is critical of gun opponents) make great viewing. Indeed. My view of the Michigan Militia was negative /until/ I watched the movie. Moore is extremely sympathetic on both an organizational and personal level. Likewise, I believed Sagan's claim that Canada is "de gunned" /until/ I saw the movie, which emphasized how easy it is to transport anything across the Detroit Churchill bridge if you wanted too. (Of course, this was pre 9/11). Additionally, the infamous Columbine survivor returns bullets to store scene is parrelled earlier by a purchase in peaceful Canada. The movie's goal is to criticize American culture where Moore has a point and not gun laws.) Moore is complex politically, but he is a marketing genius. He knows exactly what makes movies sell controversy. Emphasizing the "pollution is more dangerous in LA than gun violence" aspect would't fill seats. But attack military contractors and blam! money from the sky! Air Jordan 4 Thunder 2012 To enter Cuba, tour operators navigate a minefield of rulesBy Gay Nagle Myers Think of Cuba today as a theater in which the curtain is about to go up on the first act of a performance that created quite a buzz in rehearsals a decade ago. Abercrombie Kent announced new Cuba programs last week, followed a day later by a similar announcement from the Globus Family of Brands. Insight Cuba was first out of the gate in June, and according to director Tom Popper, it didn't take long to fill its inaugural trip, which departs Miami on Aug. 11. There are other companies already in the mix as well, and more announcements from mainstream operators are expected soon. citizens to travel to Cuba to meet with local Cubans in the "people to people" category of educational and cultural travel. travelers who want to meet and share experiences with local Cubans in all walks of life. The people to people programs were popular during the final years of the Clinton administration, but they were discontinued in 2004 by President George W. Bush. government. But while a lot of companies are clearly eager to jump into the fray, the process of developing a Cuba product requires patience and a deep understanding of how to navigate the legal minefield of federal regulations to obtain a license. citizens. Travelers, too, are bound by strict rules and regulations. government licensed organizations. Tour operators like Insight Cuba, A and Globus have partnered with or are associated with nonprofit organizations, some of which already held a license to offer other categories of travel to Cuba, such as educational, religious or cultural tours. Tour operators cannot obtain such a license themselves, under the current OFAC regulations. Once companies or organizations have obtained a license to operate people to people programs, they must turn to travel service providers to handle the travel arrangements for participants in their programs, including booking hotel accommodations, air, tours and activities in Cuba. The TSPs and there are a lot of them are licensed and appointed by OFAC to uphold the regulations of the Treasury Department. TSPs facilitate travel, collect money and provide services for those individuals or groups who themselves are licensed to go to Cuba. Many of the TSPs are located in South Florida, and the bulk of their business involves handling air travel bookings for Cuban Americans traveling to Cuba on a general license to visit relatives, a change that Obama announced in 2009. In other words, any travel to Cuba must involve two layers of government certified entities: a licensed tour operator or nonprofit travel organization and a licensed TSP. The official list of TSPs appears as a link on the Treasury Department's website. Globus will launch its series of escorted products in January, starting with a series of religious travel programs. It plans to expand later into the people to people category of cultural exchange travel. Departure dates for the religious trips will be announced on Aug. 10, at which time the program will also begin taking reservations. Program details and pricing will be posted on the Globus website on that date, said Mike Shields, managing director for groups and emerging markets. "There will be series of departures from January through May 2012, which will resume again in September through the end of the year," Shields said. The Globus product Globus' first itinerary will be "A Spiritual, Historical and Cultural Journey," an eight day Havana only escorted package. Scott Nisbet, CEO for the Globus family of brands, described the program as a "once in a lifetime experience for Globus travelers." "This itinerary presents an interesting, insightful opportunity to connect with a fascinating country we know very little about," he said. "We are thrilled to be among an elite group of tour companies selected to transport travelers on this spiritual journey to a bygone era." The itinerary will incorporate a number of religious sites and religious themed activities in Havana as well as offer participants a walking tour of Old Havana, a tour of the Colon Cemetery, a visit to the Museum of the Revolution and a ride in a 1950s car. The trip is priced from $2,889 per person, land only, and includes accommodations at the Melia Cohiba in Havana, all meals, air conditioned motorcoach transport and the services of an in country host/guide. Roundtrip charter air from Miami to Havana is extra. Air as well as all other travel arrangements will be handled by Cuba Travel Services, an OFAC licensed TSP.
