Product is outstanding. You really can't go wrong with original HP cartridges. But you can find cheaper online. Staples does have lower in store prices than [@], so they are good in a pinch. But buy this is elsewhere online to save money. If your printer needs all four cartridges, just buy a new printer. It is cheaper in the long run.

About Me Infrequent User
The true HP Toner is definitely much more expensive than the Unauthorized stuff, but it works.I had picked up this used printer and it had the unathorized (pirate) toner cart init. The result was Cyan toner all over the transfer belt.As soon as I put in the true HP Cyan Cartridge, the problem cleared up.The bottom line is, NO ONE makes toners like the original manufacturer, so beware of going for the cheap stuff
Stay ahead of the curve and upgrade to a new machine. There are many machines today that offer improved functionality like faster speeds, wireless and ethernet networking options or cost savings features like 2 sided printing and ENERGY STAR ® compliance.
Many ink and toner supplies are compatible with multiple machines. For best match, please select your current printer brand/type/model below.

Engang var sukkeret kongen i Hilo. I dag er byen kendt for bugten, butikkerne og bondemarkedet, der er et overflødighedshorn af eksotisk frugt. Det vrimler med svajende hofter til Hilos Merrie Monarch-festival, en ugelang hula-konkurrence, der afholdes efter Påske. Hawaiis vulkannationalpark ligger lige i nærheden, hvor Kilauea er den varmeste attraktion, da det er en af verdens mest aktive vulkaner. Foran den står Pele, den hawaiiske vulkangudinde.

"so much potential"
I was worried, and with reserved expectations, I was pleasantly surprised! The rooms were very clean, and the water pressure was very good for an island. I wasn't sure what to expect for 'breakfast' and it was very crowded with a tour group, so I was not really disappointed.(but it did take an hour to get coffee and toast)- they didnt run out. The staff […] was very nice and very helpful, I think that they are a little understaffed, but the hotel appears to be going through a bit of a transition /recovery, it appears to have a ton of potential from previous 'splendor' and given what it used to be, I think it will be amazing when its complete. There was no restaurant inside to accomodate us when we arrived after 8pm, so we ordered in Pizza from Big Island and it was great tasting! We totally lucked out and got a sunny, rainless day, for our day there,and that made visiting the island, Hilo and surrounding sites, the best possible. We were also able to explore the area, and coconut island (a must see right there) because we stayed at this hotel and looking back it was the right decision. Also having a view of the harbor, we were able to see the cruise ship enter, and that was also a nice surprise. The wi-fi in the hotel worked well in the lobby, and it was easy to get connected. The lobby is open air, so it proved to be a bit breezy and on the cool side for breakfast, I brought a jacket. I think I would stay again, for the money it was pretty good value.

"Ok Stay"
Hilo is a small town... there's really not much to do here. We did a night here because our flight arrived late. There are other hotels along this road. Internet is free but you have to use an ethernet cable which they can also provide at the front desk. The hotel is located right at the bay. It seems like they're trying to repaint the back of the hotel. […] It's a bit dated along with the rooms. There's a free continental breakfast which as always isn't much. Air condition unit was loud. Interesting stay but I wouldn't recommend it unless you're doing a one night stop over or you're on a budget. I would give this hotel 2.5 stars but gave it a 3 because they were helpful and were able to store our luggage for a day while we went around the island to Kona.

This is one of the biggest dives I have ever stayed at. To call it run down would not do it any justice. This place is run down and stomped on. Cheaply modelled in about 1972, it appears that the only attempt they've made to upkeep this hotel is painting one half of one side of the place at some point in the past. So... you have a 1/4 painted hotel, […] that is 2/3 abandoned - you can see supplies stocked up in the windows in some rooms from the ocean side - and one of the buildings was completely abandoned with all the windows wide open - portraying a North Korea elegance. Best of all, after 5 min walking around my room in bare feet, they were black. Overall this place is a to Hawaii. Læs mereÆgte Expedia-gæsteanmeldelse
"Best place to stay in Hilo"
I enjoy the history of Naniloa remembering it from its inception to present. It is still the best hotel in Hilo, and affordable. The location is prime, and the view of Hilo Bay with Moku Ola dancing in the water makes for a pleasant stay. The rooms were cleaned daily and in a timely fashion.

"Location is nice, but the hotel needs maintenance"
When I first got to the hotel, I noticed that on one side, there was a set of hotel rooms with peeling paint ceilings and partially boarded windows with wooden planks. I kept thinking to myself, "No way this can't be the hotel I'm staying at.." Turns out that this was Naniloa Volcanoes Resort which was shocking since the pictures online showed nothing […] of the hotel needing so much maintenance. The hallways were dark studded with scuffle marks, the room were also in the same condition as the hallways. I saw ants crawling along the wall in our room on the 9th floor, which goes to show that this hotel also has a pest problem. Considering the price, this hotel was way below expectations. I was somewhat disappointed, honestly. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse
"Excellent choice in Hilo"
This hotel was great. We wanted to spend a few nights in Hilo, to use it as a base to see the Botanical gardens, Akaka Falls, Volcanoes national park, and Wapio Valley. It was perfectly located. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Room was very well maintained, and so were the lobby spaces. Great harbor view, close to parks and other restaurants. […] The only negative, was that it was almost empty; it seems like not many people stay in Hilo, so only a few rooms of this massive complex were occupied. The shops and restaurants were closed; which gave the hotel an eeire feeling, but that was easy to overcome. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse

"A place NOT to stay"
I stayed at the Naniloa Volcanoes Resort in 1997 and it was one of the most wonderful places at a great rate. It had a restaurant, shops, and many guests. Now fast forward to 2012 and I just about had a heart attack when we arrived.The restaurant is gone as are ALL the shops that were located in the lobby area. This hotel says it has a kitchenette, […] which it did 15 years ago - now the "kitchenette" includes a small fridge and a 4 cup coffee maker. the only furniture to sit on in the room is the bed and a small desk chair with wheels. NOTHING else... I called the front desk to ask for a chair because I am disabled and sitting on/in bed is awful difficult and a desk chair (no padding) is NOT comfortable... I was told they COULD NOT get a chair for the room. In order to warm up food in your room, you couldn't do that either. The microwave that is NORMALLY included in a kitchenette is located behind the front desk and only operated by the desk clerk not the customers. The "curtains" in the room are no longer cloth - 3 wooden panels that slide into place. It also had 2 swimming pools and an outdoor bar by the one, now the area with the bar and second pool is closed off and the water in the pool is all black and nasty - smelly...... checked out of the Naniloa and will NEVER go back without looking at the hotel and room first.

The hotel is clearly undergoing some remodeling. The exterior and much of the interior of the hotel common areas appears dilapidated, damp and dreary.

The room we stayed in on the […] other hand, was freshly remodeled, clean and attractive - it is just a shame the rest of the hotel did not live up to that standard.

This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel and decided to pay the extra ocean view rate.

We were given a room over the roof of the lobby which was distracting from the great view of the ocean […] and in particular the bay. The roof is in dire need of repair and we had to look beyond it to get a great view. Since the rooms were not booked it was disappointing that we were not placed in a better location.

"Bad noise pollution, friendly staff, decent view."
While the room was clean, and the bed was passably comfortable, the overall quality of the hotel left much to be desired. The general appearance of the building left an impression of decay.

Of the three elevators, one was not operational, and the other two were in a disgusting state, dirty and vandalized. The low quality finishing of the rooms and hallways meant that noise pollution from other guests on the same floor, either intentionally or accidentally, was very noticeable. Our neighbors were clearly audible despite shoving our towels under the connecting door.

Historic Christmas Eve Vote Marks Passage of Senate Healthcare Bill
Apropos of the unusual Christmas Eve vote, the red "nay" lights and the green "aye" lights on the Senate floor flashed in the expected pattern signaling passage of the senate's version of a healthcare bill. Just prior to the roll call, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) turned and faced his colleagues across the aisle and poked the air with his forefinger declaring that "this fight is not over. It is far from over." With that, he took his seat and mutely witnessed the inevitable passage of the healthcare bill by the Senate. Despite being undeniably unpopular among voters, 60 senators stood ceremoniously and added their voice to the majority agreeing to disregard the expressed will of the electorate and shepherd the historic overhaul of health care one step closer to enshrinement as the law of the land.
Healthcare Vote Scheduled for Christmas Eve
"Something's going to have to give," are the words used by Congressman Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) in describing the shotgun wedding about to take place between the Senate healthcare bill and its companion measure adopted by the House on November 7. Stupak gained fame for penning the provision of the House bill prohibiting the funding of abortion in any policy financed by federal subsidy.
Healthcare Shepherds Promise "Reform" by Hook or by Crook
Everyday the headlines in the nation's newspapers report the same salient and unsurprising fact: Healthcare "reform" is unpopular to historic levels and yet President Obama and his legislative factotums still insist on passing it at all costs. Day after day, the sharp edges are sanded down so the bill can roll through the Senate and into the Oval Office by Christmas.
Calling in the Big Guns: Oval Office Meeting to Heal Healthcare Rift
In what has been described as a last-ditch effort to save the healthcare overhaul that is first on his Christmas wish list, President Barack Obama has summoned all 60 members of the Senate's Democratic caucus to the White House on Tuesday for an 11th-hour pep talk in anticipation of an impending vote on the Senate's version of a bill that would alter the healthcare industry by changing Medicare, offering long-term care to retirees and the disabled, and creating a government-subsidized and administered panoply of health insurance policies.
The Unconstitutional Healthcare Bill
On November 7, at the end of a 12-hour debate, the House of Representatives passed the implausibly named "Affordable Healthcare for America Act." A similarly revolutionary measure was introduced days later in the Senate and, thanks to a shameless display of haranguing and multi-million-dollar handouts, was put onto the calendar for deliberation by the entire membership.
Healthcare Amendments Voted on by Senate
Ending a week of rancorous debate, hollow threats, and showdowns that seemed all but blocked and scripted, the Senate voted Thursday on the first four of nearly a score of amendments to the healthcare bill. Partisan shadow boxing over topics as polarizing as abortion and Medicare culminated in a series of roll calls that had few surprises, and more than anything testified to the antipodean antipathy permeating both houses of Congress.
Healthcare: Perplexing and Costly Provisions for the Middle Class
In the over 2,000 pages of the Senate's "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act," there are bound to be a few perplexing provisions. While not all of these elements will make it in to the final bill, examining some of the less mundane aspects of the legislation that may become the law of the land is worthwhile.
Public Option: Hard Trigger, Powerful Bang
The not-a-vote-to-spare super majority that invoked cloture in the healthcare legislation in the Senate, thus placing deliberation of the bill on the top of the legislative agenda, reveals the pressing and unavoidable need for compromise among Democrats, some of whom are claiming to still be undecided as to whether or not they will support the bill as currently written.
Senate Votes to Move Forward on Healthcare Reform
In front of a standing-room-only spectator gallery, the Senate voted 60-39 Saturday night to invoke cloture and limit floor debate on the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2009," the Senate's companion measure to similar healthcare reform legislation passed earlier in the month by the House of Representatives. Invoking cloture requires a three-fifths majority (60 votes) of the full Senate. Though not a vote on the legislation itself, the procedural vote is significant since it prevents opponents from trying to filibuster the bill to death.
Senator Landrieu's $100 Million Christmas Present
It seems Senator Harry Reid (D-Nev.) is really getting into the spirit of the holiday season. Not only has he promised President Obama that he would deliver a shiny new healthcare package to the President's desk by Christmas, but since revealing the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act," the Senate's version of healthcare reform, it is apparent that he likes playing Santa Claus so much he has stuffed Senator Mary Landrieu (D-La.) stocking with $100 million.

Emjoi Light Caress Corded Epilator
Linda SevillaBetter Than My FirstIve only used it a couple times on my legs, and this gadget is pretty good and a lot less painful than the really old hair remover with the long coil springy thing-a-ma-jig. I plan to try it out on my face and underarms... well see.posted Apr 8, 2005Link to this post
SheenaSan FranciscoOuch!OUCH! This product is closely related to a chainsaw torture device requiring at least two shots of alcohol intake before attempting to try such a contraption. The old fashion waxing gives the same results. I as an individual would much rather have the quick waxing experience rather than the constant and painful back and forth motion in one area to achieve smooth results. I am not saying this product is defective in anyway as it does achieve the results it promises, but if you are looking for any amount of âcomfortâ while trying to remove hair I would recommend waxing instead of using this product. But honestly what form of hair removal system doesnt require some amount of discomfort!posted Dec 26, 2004Link to this post
Jefferey TalbertAustraliaThis One WorksI have used it on my - what was a very hairy chest and back (I am one of the lucky few who can actually reach any part of my back with this) and it really works. It was very painful the first time, but since then I have been "topping up" almost on a daily basis (takes about 5 minutes) and the hairs get whipped out before they get set. So now the pain is almost non-existent with only the very occasional tough hair causing a little pain. I love my smooth chest now and the pain I experienced the first time seems all worthwhile. Ive been using it for over 6 months now and would recommend the product to anyone who can tolerate the pain of the first effort. If you dont use it regularly though it will hurt as much as the first time each time and it will also take ages to get smooth.posted Jun 23, 2004Link to this post

A short, wild, incoherent girl. She's bizarre to many, but for those who take the time to get to know her, they find that truly she's a kind, thoughtful and perfect girl. She's beautiful in every way and has the most fantastic smile of any being. Extremely easy love and fall in love with, and always good for talking to and for cheering you up when you need it most. She's loyal, smart and sweet, usually calm when unprovoked, and basically the best thing that'll ever happen in your life. Everyone loves a Libby secretly. Idiot: "Hey, you know Libby?"
Genuis: "Yeah, what about her?" Idiot: "Well you know she's just so annoying and stuff?" Genius: "...Fuck you." Idiot: "What? Don't you think so too?" Genius: "No, because I spent my short time with her actually getting to know her, not just taking the piss." Idiot: "But she's mental!" Genius: "Goodbye, Idiot." Idiot: "...." |

Vice President Dick Cheney, White House political operative Karl Rove, and likely George W. Bush himself approved of this treasonous attempt at intimidation. As of December 2007, only Libby has spent any jail time in connection with Plame's outing. Libby's sentence was communted by Pretzeldent George W. Bush commuted Libby's sentence in July 2007.

of 2731
Description: A genius con artist, Otowa No. 4, is a "chivalrous thief" who uses his exceptional and handsome looks as a weapon to rip off money from villains around the world. Otowa No. 4 is finally arrested, but he succeeds in escaping with Azabu No. 10 while being transported under police escort. The two men, who happened to take refuge in a grove of trees at a high school, Hikari Gakuen, strike a deal with its principal, Mizuki Kenichi, and end up working at the school. Otowa No. 4 becomes Hachisuka Goro, a new teacher who graduated from Tokyo University, and makes full use of his swindling techniques to conduct "hammer sessions" for problem students. Hachisuka immediately focuses on a student called Shiba whose assault on a homeless man was distributed over the internet.

Anne Bronte: Agnes Grey7. CHAPTER VII--HORTON LODGE (continued)Often they would do their lessons in the open air; which I had nothing to say against: except that I frequently caught cold by sitting on the damp grass, or from exposure to the evening dew, or some insidious draught, which seemed to have no injurious effect on them. It was quite right that they should be hardy; yet, surely, they might have been taught some consideration for others who were less so. But I must not blame them for what was, perhaps, my own fault; for I never made any particular objections to sitting where they pleased; foolishly choosing to risk the consequences, rather than trouble them for my convenience. Their indecorous manner of doing their lessons was quite as remarkable as the caprice displayed in their choice of time and place. While receiving my instructions, or repeating what they had learned, they would lounge upon the sofa, lie on the rug, stretch, yawn, talk to each other, or look out of the window; whereas, I could not so much as stir the fire, or pick up the handkerchief I had dropped, without being rebuked for inattention by one of my pupils, or told that 'mamma would not like me to be so careless.' The servants, seeing in what little estimation the governess was held by both parents and children, regulated their behaviour by the same standard. I have frequently stood up for them, at the risk of some injury to myself, against the tyranny and injustice of their young masters and mistresses; and I always endeavoured to give them as little trouble as possible: but they entirely neglected my comfort, despised my requests, and slighted my directions. All servants, I am convinced, would not have done so; but domestics in general, being ignorant and little accustomed to reason and reflection, are too easily corrupted by the carelessness and bad example of those above them; and these, I think, were not of the best order to begin with. I sometimes felt myself degraded by the life I led, and ashamed of submitting to so many indignities; and sometimes I thought myself a fool for caring so much about them, and feared I must be sadly wanting in Christian humility, or that charity which 'suffereth long and is kind, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, beareth all things, endureth all things.'

Aquajet earns high-point honor | NWAC
By JIM WALLER
Whidbey News Times Sports editor
December 18, 2012 · 8:16 AM
Emily Huffer of the North Whidbey Aquatic Club closed out the year with a stellar performance at the Pacific Northwest Swim Washington State Senior Short Course Championships Dec. 13 to 15.
Huffer, a sophomore at Oak Harbor High School, earned female high-point honors by placing in the top five of all her events, including a win in the 1,650 freestyle (16:58.75).

She also placed second in the 400 individual medley (4:27.73), fourth in the 200 butterfly (2:04.92) and fifth in the 100 backstroke (57.77).
Coupeville senior Cole Weinstein finished sixth in the 1,650 free (16:19.65), seventh in the 400 IM (4:09.32), 10th in the 200 fly (1:57.79), 12th in both the 200 breaststroke (2:11.67) and 200 IM (2:00.42) and 23rd in the 100 breaststroke (1:02.02).
Josh Jepsen, an OHHS senior, was 18th in 400 IM (4:27.73), 19th in both the 100 fly (53.97) and 200 breaststroke (2:14.93) and 20th in the 200 IM (2:01.68).

Cooking Tips & Advice
sautéing pan-frying lamb Article
Sautéing | Pan-Frying Sautéing Sautéing is the technique of cooking thin cuts of lamb in a small quantity of hot fat in an uncovered pan. This is considered a 'dry heat' method because fat does not contain water.
pan preparation Article
Proper pan preparation will result in easy removal of the finish baked goods. There are several preparation methods that work well. Read the recipe carefully to identify the proper method to use.
pan-frying turkey Article
Pan-frying is similar to sautéing except that a little more oil is used, the turkey pieces are larger and thicker, and the cooking process usually requires more time. High heat is used to sear the turkey pieces in order to brown the surface and seal in the natural juices.
pan-frying beef Article
Pan-frying is similar to sautéing except that a little more oil is used, the cuts of beef do not have to be thin, and the cooking process may require more time. Like sautéing, high heat is used to sear the meat, creating a flavorful browned crust.

News Update
Stand and deliver: McKinney student shows what it takes to be an orator
Kelsey Kruzich / Staff photo - McKinney resident Angelle Halvorson prepares for a speech about the five love languages Thursday at the National Christian Forensics Communication Association's speech and debate competition in Richardson. The 17-year-old homeschool student recently got second place at the National Right to Life's oratory contest in Houston.
By Kelley Chambers,
on Twitter
Published: Friday, March 1, 2013 10:29 AM CST
When it comes to prepping for a public speaking debut, Angelle Halvorson suggests sticking three fingers in your mouth and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.
"It helps loosen up the muscles in your mouth so that you can annunciate better," said Angelle, 17. "It looks ridiculous and you get wonderful stares, but it works."
On Thursday, the McKinney resident joined nearly 300 students from around the Metroplex and beyond for 12 hours of speech and debate competition at North Dallas Community Bible Fellowship. Heading home around 9 p.m., she would be back at 7:30 the next morning to do it all again, hopefully walking away with a trip to regionals next month.
Sponsored by the National Christian Forensics Communication Association (NCFCA), this week's tournament consisted of students between the ages of 12 and 18 who are at least 20 percent homeschooled. The 10-region association serves as the conduit for similar competitions across the country.
With participants competing in a number of categories critiqued by parents and volunteers instead of formal judges, the NCFCA stands out among other leagues for its emphasis on promoting "real world communication," said Kim Cromer, regional NCFCA director.
"They really want to be able to communicate; they want to learn to speak in a way that's articulate," she said. "The kids not only have to learn how to speak to the judge that's trained them, they also learn to speak to me because I'm not trained in debate, and they have to do that all at the same time. You don't get to pick your audience all the time; that's real-world communication."
In the past several months, Region 4 - consisting of students from the DFW area and parts of Oklahoma - has doubled in members. Organizers had to move last week's event from its regular venue in Greenville to a larger one in Richardson, something Cromer said proves oratory isn't just for aspiring lawyers.
"It's so much bigger than that," she said. "For us, competition is the vehicle that drives us to be able to communicate better. It's so that they can go out and inform their society. They're getting to know the world around them."
While some rounds allow for prep time, other impromptu portions focus on topics the students would have to know from reading the news and being current on local, national and international events, Cromer said. There's also an extemporaneous competition, in which a student draws a topic and has 30 minutes to prepare for a seven-minute speech on it.
"They really have to understand news and they have to be fairly well-versed and fairly well-researched," Cromer said. "It's really quite impressive."
Nearly every room, hallway and lobby had a continuous buzz of activity Thursday, with students racing from one round to the next and others roaming around wishing them luck.
Angelle is no stranger to the energy; she's been fine-tuning her oratory skills in the public arena the past several years. Just the weekend before, she traveled to Houston for the Texas Chapter of the National Right to Life's oratory contest and won second place for her seven-minute speech on abortion. The victory advanced her to the national contest.
She admitted her mother "made her" start competing at first, but Angelle said it did not continue that way because she soon developed a love for public speaking.
Although participants study and memorize their scripts by heart if the category allows it, it's no lie overcoming anxiety can be the hardest part, Angelle said.
Experience, she said, is the key to success because it gives one the confidence to keep from folding under pressure. Today, Angelle's favorite competition category is impromptu speeches because of their flexibility. She's also learned to use her body language as a way to emphasize words instead of distract from them.
"It's not really a speech; you kind of make it up when you walk in there, it's still a ton of fun to me," Angelle said. "You get to do whatever you want and talk about whatever you want."
After graduating, Angelle said she plans to use her experience to pursue an undergraduate degree in teaching; after that, she hopes to attend law school.
"Debate has played a key role in that," she said. "It helps to not only find an opinion, but it also helps you to communicate it clearly. You can have the greatest opinion on the planet, but if you can't get it through to people, it won't really matter."

LIHEAP Applications Now Available
By: Patrick Schurr
Updated: November 1, 2012
HARRISBURG - The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program started accepting new applications for this winter today.
LIHEAP provides assistance for home heating bills to keep low-income Pennsylvanians warm and safe during the winter months.
"We are encouraging all who are able to apply online this year, a new effort to provide better customer service and reduce costs," said Department of Public Welfare Secretary Gary D. Alexander.
Online applications can be completed by clicking: LIHEAP Forms
Paper applications are still available through local county assistance offices.
Applicants can also download and print forms by clicking: Department of Public Welfare
"Each January and February we see a large influx of applications, which slows down the approval process," said Alexander. "If you feel you are eligible for LIHEAP, don't wait; apply early."
For tips on how to keep your home warm throughout the winter, while saving money on utility costs, the department suggests clicking: Energy Savers
For more information on the LIHEAP program, or to download an application, click: Department of Public Welfare and click on "For Adults."
Pennsylvanians who suspect welfare fraud should call 1-800-932-0582.
Eligibility guidelines for the 2012-13 LIHEAP season are the same as last year and are set at 150 percent of the federal poverty income guidelines.
The maximum income for a one-person household is $16,755. Each additional person in the household adds $5,940 to the maximum income allowed for eligibility.

Unusual Risks, the medical mortgage and insurance advisers have been enjoying support from the HIV Charity George House Trust for their HIV Life Assurance Survey. Here's a link to the story appearing on their website. George House Trust http://www.ght.org.uk/news/article/39085/24/11/2010/'Dark_Ages'_HIV_Life_Insurance Unusual Risks Mortgage and Insurance Services are specialists in HIV Mortgages and HIV Life Assurance. They [...]
In March 1999, I opened a finance practice with the specific aim of providing financial advice without discrimination towards a person's employment status, ethnic origin, sexuality or health status. Since then, many HIV Positive people have approached me for advice and shared with me their sometimes unique and unusual personal circumstances.
These people challenged me to create specific advice for their needs, and look at financial planning from a different perspective. I've learnt a great deal about the changing lives of people living with HIV, and the best advice for these circumstances. From this came the introduction of Positive Finance which was a website specifically produced for a community who were rethinking their financial future.
Positive Finance is now a blog keeping people informed of the fast moving changes within the Mortgage and Insurance world for people with HIV. The introduction of HIV Life Assurance, HIV Life Insurance and HIV Mortgages has meant that for the first time HIV Positive people can protect their families and finance their homes. With insurance providers launching new products almost weekly, which ones should you choose? Our mission is to keep you informed ...
We are sponsored by Unusual Risks who have a long history of supporting worthy causes within the HIV communities. Currently we are supporting NAM AIDSMAP who work to change lives by sharing information about HIV and AIDS. They believe that, wherever you are in the world, having independent, clear and accurate information is vital in the fight against HIV and AIDS.
They make donations to NAM AIDSMAP for every HIV Life Assurance, HIV Life Insurance and HIV Mortgage policy they arrange on behalf of clients. You can find out more about the charities important work by visiting their website at www.aidsmap.com
Unusual Risks is a trading style of Compass Mortgage & Insurance Services which is Authorised and Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

I'm a freelance writer, an editor, and an author. I offer writing, editing, and formatting services at my freelance writing and editing website.
I agree here with Christine. I have one book published through lulu.com and it is now on amazon.com
I have found other ways (thanks to Writer Magazine and its contributors) that a self published author can market themselves and their book. If you are interested please contact me at email@example.com
You can also visit my website at sueyork.weebly.com
have a great writing day!
Sue York
I have to respectfully disagree, Christine. You may argue against what I have to say though. This is just my opinion.
When one self-publishes, it is typically done as a last resort, and I quote: "If you have not had anything published yet, I highly recommend self-publishing." This implies it is a last resort.
When a person self-publishes to start their writing career, they must do all the marketing themselves. Every aspect of it. People will wonder why you chose to self-publish- Is it because you are not good enough to have a real publisher publish you? This is a question that is always raised in my mind when I see a self-published book. I'm not saying you are not good enough. That was just an example.
Self publishing can easily taint a writers reputation right from the start. There are always exceptions, and I've read many success stories involving self-publishing.
I, myself, had planned on self-publishing, but a contact I have who owns her own publishing business highly advised me not to. She elaborated more than I have, but I realized she was right.
So while there is a chance self-publishing can be a good thing for writers, I, like my contact, highly advise against it.
(Unless of course you don't want to mass produce, and just want something small to sell to friends or family or whatever the case may be.)
My Work: http://dubbedpublications.com/mattgannon/
Hi Everyone!
This is my first time to join The Writer Mag. community. I've got a question about self-publishing. Did you get an editor to go through your work before you published? Or does Lulu provide one for you? I have a non-fiction manuscript about teaching, I'm thinking of self-publishing it through Lulu but I'm not sure about the editing part. As writers, we all know how important it is to see our work flawless -free of grammatical errors, right?
I would appreciate any tips and suggestions regarding this. Can't wait for my publisher to make a decision whether it's a go or not. I can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you! Have a great summer!
Lulu.com has a list of editors on their site (IIRC), but they don't directly supply an editor. Lulu publishes what you send them, warts and all. Therefore, it's imperative that you have your manuscript edited before you submit it to Lulu.
'Course, that's the case no matter where you self-publish. The other author services companies (AuthorHouse, Xlibris, etc.) have staff editors, but you'll have to pay for that service. However, the quality will likely be less than you'd receive from a professional book editor.
As owner of a publishing company, CyPress Publications, I can say that I always prefer to have a well-edited manuscript (less work to bring it to publication), but I can live with a few grammatical or spelling or diction errors if the manuscript is otherwise well written and marketable. Errors I can fix, but a bad manuscript often can't be salvaged.
Hope this helps.
Lee Raymond
Publisher, CyPress Publications
Hi MoonOrchid,
I'm happy to hear that you are planning on publishing with Lulu. They do have editing services within the "Laureate Publishing Package" that includes an editorial quality review and a full copy edit, but the cost of the entire package is expensive. Lulu does not have a separate service just for editing.
I recommend, if you decide to self-publish, that you have a friend, family member, colleague, or all three read through their own typed and printed copy of your manuscript (after you have edited it at least once yourself) and ask them to write their comments, edits, and suggestions on it. Encourage them to be honest but reasonable when editing, and to make their markings legible. Offer them a free copy of your book when it is published for helping you out.
So, you may not need a professional editor, just different eyes to view your work. However, you can pay a professional to proofread your manuscript if you want it more polished, and it shouldn't be too expensive. In fact, I may be able to do it for you inexpensively, compared to a business. I am an independent freelance writer, editor, and author. Check out my professional website below and contact me to discuss your book.
Good luck to you! Let us know how you're making out with your book.
Why self-publish? You've accomplished nothing, and how rewarding can it be to see something in print that you didn't earn? For most who write, self-publishing is still vanity.
If you want your best writing to be in book form, sell it to a commercial publisher. If it is good, they'll buy it. If they won't, it isn't good.
Everyone deserves the right to publish their writing. Quality writing is not determined by a traditional publisher, who is limited in the number of books they can publish due to limited time and staff, and which are merely opinions of quality.
Most books are self-published now. Soon print books and traditional publishers will no longer exist. Traditional publishing is outdated. If you are still pro-traditional publishing, your beliefs are old-fashioned.

Teams that will do well at World Cup 2007
Going by the Champions Trophy performances , there are some Teams already on top of their game and are ready and set to do extremely well at the World Cup now only 5 months away . There are few Teams (including my Team SL) which are over rated and promise a lot , but when it comes to the crunch , they struggle .
From the performances at CT I feel, West Indies at home will be one of the most improved Teams and threatening to win the Cup at home. Australia as usual will be one of the top challengers , while India, Pakistan and NZ will be the outsiders for the cup. Your opinions please. I rank them thus - 1 West Indies (at home) = Australia 3 India = New Zealand 5 Pakistan (minus Akhtar/Asif) Last edited by JASON; 26-10-2006 at 05:41 PM. |

Just thinking that. Hopefully NZ will do alright if Bond is still injury free, with Astle, Styris, Vettori and Patel the NZ bowling attack might go quite well considering the slow, low pithces that will be the standard in the West Indies. Fleming will again need to lead from the front though.

I have to say that when you compare the top 7 teams, there isnt really a glaring difference between them as we've seen in the champions trophy. I think we can expect a really competitive world cup this time around. I certainly cant see Australia going undefeated throughout like they did last time.

India might not win because their ability to win crunch games isnt very good. But they are certainly capable of giving any team a run for their money. I also think they need Ganguly back at the top of the order in ODIs for the wc.

Same teams as I've said all along, Australia, West Indies and England if they're injury free. I thought Pakistan might come into it but probably not now they've got players facing bans and Woolmer hasn't managed to sort out all the politics and disharmony. South Africa will probably make the semis but I can't see them winning.

australia obviously...other than that...the hosts are experiencing a mini revival in the shortened version of the game and on home ground will probably do well, new zealand always does well in one dayers, so does south africa, sri lanka has the potential to bounce back after a dismal champions trophy, on the downside, i can't see pakistan going too far without asif & akhtar, india have been downright pathetic for sometime now and it might be well too much to expect the same kind of miraculous resurrection we witnessed in 2003, england have maintained their crappy one day form at the champions trophy and are too reliant on kp and flintoff to win games for them...

Rob Vember is a radio DJ and proud Capetonian. He grew up in Cape Town and studied in Grahamstown, where, working at the campus station, he was bitten by the radio bug. Returning to the Mother City to join the DJ line-up on Heart FM, he then made the move to Johannesburg to become part of the 5FM team, where he has been for the last few years. He recently made the move back home to continue presenting his weekday show from 5FM's Cape Town studios. We asked him what he loves about the city. -
