PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/24/13 -- African Library Project (ALP) announced today that it has shipped 1,000,000 books to Africa to start small libraries. ALP is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization that coordinates book drives in North America, then partners with African communities to turn these donated books into small libraries. The one million gently-used books have come from hundreds of book drives coordinated by schools, clubs, corporations, families, individuals and other groups. The donations have provided books for 900 libraries in nine African countries and have positively affected the lives of nearly 700,000 people in both Africa and North America. To learn about ALP's millionth book milestone, see videos, and learn how the organization works, visit "One Million Books."
The shipment of ALP's millionth book to Africa is a tremendous milestone. The organization's grassroots approach mobilizes North American volunteers, young and old, to organize book drives and ship books to a partner library in Africa. ALP's method makes a concrete and personal difference for children on both continents through literacy, education, and self-empowerment. The million books have come from over 45,000 donors located in 46 U.S. states and Canada to create libraries.
Completing an African Library Project book drive is simple and rewarding. All that is needed is to collect 1,000 gently used children's books and $500 to support the opening of a library in a school or village in Africa. To learn the details on how to start a library in Africa with ALP, visit "Start a Book Drive."
African Library Project started in 2005, when founder Chris Bradshaw went pony trekking with her family in the mountain kingdom of Lesotho in southern Africa. She learned that there was just one library in the entire country of Lesotho and very few books for anyone to read. Bradshaw made an offer to the village leaders: If they provided an adequate place and staff for a community library, she would send books gathered from friends and family. It worked, and ALP expanded rapidly as more volunteers offered to run book drives. Now, seven years and 1,000,000 books later, ALP continues its mission to positively affect the lives of children, one book at a time.
"I am so proud of everyone's hard work in North America and Africa that has helped us get to the milestone of sending our millionth book," says Chris Bradshaw, founder of African Library Project. "When I first started this project, it was clear how absolutely life-changing it would be for African children. I have since come to realize that the benefit is just as dramatic for children who participate here by running book drives and donating their books. "
How It Works: Become a Book Drive Organizer and Sponsor A Library
The African Library Project coordinates book drives throughout North America by schools, youth groups such as Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, corporations, churches, college groups, families and individuals. Each book drive is matched with a specific African library site. The book drive organizer collects 1,000 gently used, appropriate books and raises $500 to help pay for shipping. The book drive volunteers sort and pack the books, then send them to a warehouse in New Orleans. The warehouse ships the books via container to ALP's partner organizations in Africa. Since each book drive is paired with an African community, book donors can take special pride in making a difference to the people in that specific village.
African Library Project works together with partner organizations in Africa that focus on education or library development. ALP's partners in Africa include U.S. Peace Corps volunteers, National Library Service staff, education districts and African Non-Governmental Organizations. The Partners recruit and screen the local library projects and distribute the books to their destinations. They also train teacher-librarians, measure progress, and support each library to thrive over time.
To be selected as an African partner, the organization must be able to support the development of 30-60 libraries a year, year after year, to develop a strong network of small libraries throughout their respective country. ALP's African partners work tirelessly to turn donated books into working libraries that welcome all readers.

If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Hands off our brand, Wi-Fi body warns 'white space' tech firms
Don't call wireless networks that operate at frequencies formerly reserved for TV transmissions "Wi-Fi", the owner of the brand has warned. The Wi-Fi Alliance doesn't like the idea that chip makers and other tech companies promoting products that operate in the electromagnetic spectrum's "White Space" zones are pitching their …
I don't think it means what you think it means
Perhaps it's a good thing to stop confusion before it sets in. It's not at all uncommon for the average person to use technical terminology incorrectly.
People say they have "wireless broadband" and "the internet" is synonymous with "the web". It would be nice to avoid fielding the support question "Why doesn't this new Wi-Fi work with my old Wi-Fi. It's the same thing!!"
Blame the marketing people for such ridiculous conflation. They're the same folks who're lazily trying to make people think that SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) isn't an acronym, too...
Ah, yes...
"Using the Wi-Fi brand for such uses, the organisation reckons, will just confuse folk because they won't necessarily work with all the official 802.11a, b, g and n-based kit out there."
Because a, b, g, and n all play so nicely together as it is... sigh.
Perhaps they could rebrand Wi-Fi as Wyfy?
how about?...

Lady Gaga Cutting Off Press Access, No Longer Doing Interviews Following Oprah Broadcast (Video)
The Grammy-winner wants to step back from her rampant publicity, but the ramifications remain to be seen.
Lady Gaga's career has, to date, been in many ways as much a commentary on celebrity as it has been about her music. After all, her first hit album was titled The Fame; her second, The Fame Monster. But following her most intimate -- and public -- interview yet, the pop star will be stepping back from the spotlight.
"Other than this interview, Oprah, I do not intend to speak to anyone for a very long time," Gaga says in her upcoming televised talk with Oprah Winfrey on Oprah's Next Chapter, set to air on Sunday night. "No press, no television, if my mom calls and says, 'Did you hear about…' I shut it all off."
PHOTOS: Lady Gaga's MTV Evolution
It's an interesting turn, given how much she has relied on relentless media coverage not just to build up the mythology and hype around her songs and always-costumed persona, but to advocate on behalf of the causes that she holds so dear. Gaga -- real name Stefani Germanotta -- is a fierce advocate of gay rights, having made many public statements, both in her music and emotional interviews, in support of gay marriage and the end of social discrimination.
In fact, Gaga just launched -- with Winfrey -- the Born This Way Foundation, which will fight bullying and promote civility and pride amongst children and high schoolers. How the media blackout will affect that remains to be seen, though it'd be hard to believe that she will stop making speeches and public appearances to advance the cause.
Also in question: how often she will tweet, as just this month, Gaga reached 20 million Twitter followers.

If you've followed my blog for a while, then you probably already know that it literally took a team of people to help us get pregnant, and then a team of people to get that baby out of me! I really don't think I could have been as calm and as happy throughout my pregnancy, given our ups and downs, had it not been for all of the support I had around me. My friends, family, and even the friendly professionals, in particular our in vitro doctor, know this journey is as much emotional as it is physical and they were all key to my peace of mind.

The deep burgundy in this chevron half moon manicure cut out over an unpolished nude nail is gorgeous. I love the simplicity of this nail art.
Gold moon and gold tips over nude nails. Yes, please! This is the only jewelry you'll need for your Thanksgiving get together.
Try this easy layered chocolate manicure by layering on 3 shades of brown, each after the previous layer has dried, with each top layer shorter than the one underneath.
A Thanksgiving mani doens't have to involve the usual suspects of reds and browns only. I'm loving the simplicity of this navy manicure with gold striping tips.
Simple, yet definitely a stand-out at the Thanksgiving dinner table. This Thanksgiving, go for garnet nails with a gold glitter overlay and a gold metallic accent nail.
Copper glitter gives an elegant fall sparkle to an otherwise cloudy day manicure with this simple glitter tips nail art.
Another garnet and gold tips mani, because these shades are so on trend for fall. Gold tips elevate the sophistication level of any solid cream manicure.
How about a solid cream manicure in a brown so deep, it's almost black. With this shade, you can skip the nail art altogether!

'Tis the season for baked apple desserts with cinnamon and brown sugar. The scent just exudes fall! I'm playing around with a couple of recipe ideas for Thanksgiving desserts and I found a winner. Apple Pie Croissants use all of the same ingredients as apple pie, except replace the pie crust with a super soft croissant. They taste pretty close to the real deal, yet are WAY easier than a full on apple pie. I love these little individual size portions, they're just as good as they are fun!
The original recipe called for leaving the apple skin on, but for me, it would all come out in the first bite and was a little tough so I peeled my second batch. Way better! Also, use all of the brown sugar the recipe calls for. I tried to skimp a bit on my first batch, but you should definitely go for it! ;) Serve warm under vanilla ice cream or with an omelet for brunch!
What desserts are you all serving for Thanksgiving?

Product description
Lydie McBride has always embraced life to the fullest. But when an unthinkable tragedy strikes her family, everything she believes in is shattered. Her architect husband, Michael, watches the passion disappear from Lydie's eyes and from their marriage, and hopes that an assignment to Paris will help them reclaim a love that once seemed unassailable. But the City of Lights holds secrets and seductions for them both. As Michael pursues his design project at the Louvre--and falls into the orbit of a mysterious, alluring Frenchwoman--Lydie finds new inspiration for her work as a photo and art stylist and begins a friendship with two dramatically different women that will enable her to find a new life. Will there be a place for the man with whom she always wanted to share that life . . . if she can find him again?

Arizona Cardinals
Tyrann Mathieu is a lottery ticket
Over the weekend I experienced something that I'm still having a hard time wrapping my mind around. Hardcore NFL scouts and coaches are raving about Tyrann Mathieu, the Cardinals' third-round pick out of LSU. Mathieu has always been an excellent football player, but his adjustment -- mentally -- to the National Football League has been nothing short of stunning.
The most difficult aspect of making the transition from college to the NFL is found between the ears. The game is so much more complicated, complex and volatile; schemes are multifaceted and evolving.
And Tyrann Mathieu has learned three different positions for three personnel packages! He has played corner, nickel corner and safety in base, nickel and dime personnel packages. He knows it and is making plays.
For a former player like myself, understanding how complex the game is at this level, I could not be any more impressed.
But I'm not the only one impressed.
One scout told me that Tyrann Mathieu was, "pound-for-pound, the best player on the field." And while conversing with an offensive assistant coach he told me that he believed, "No. 32 was going to change the team."
My jaw is still hanging as I write this. These are things you don't hear from grizzled, hardcore professionals. And yet all of it won't matter unless Tyrann understands the burden he carries. It will all be for naught if he doesn't accept the responsibility of keeping himself on the straight and narrow.
Risk/reward is something every GM must take into account when bringing a player into the organization. And Mathieu was a risk; but as it stands right now, Steve Keim should buy a lottery ticket.

First Single 'Shell Shocked' from TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURLES is Released
Atlantic Records has announced the release of Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa & Ty Dolla $ign (Feat. Kill The Noise & Madsonik) "Shell Shocked," the first single from Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies' upcoming motion picture, TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES. The track produced by Madsonik (a.k.a. acclaimed film composer Brian Tyler) & Kill the Noise (Skrillex, Duck Sauce, Korn) premiered on Complex.com and is available today at all leading digital providers; TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES arrives in theatres nationwide on Friday, August 8th.
"[Paramount] heard about how big of a fan I was of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and their whole legacy," says Wiz Khalifa. "I actually have Donatello tattooed on my leg, so when they asked me to do it, just being a fan and being a musician, it made sense. In my generation, I think everyone who listens to me loves the Turtles as much as I do, so it just made sense."
"It's hella crazy being included in the music for the Ninja Turtles movie," says West Coast singer/songwriter/producer Ty Dolla $ign. "You know, being a fan and everything, this is super surreal. 'Shell Shocked' is so different from what people are used to hearing from Ty Dolla $ign. Plus, Wiz and Juicy killed it like they always do. It's a perfect song for this movie."
"I grew up on the Ninja Turtles, so when I heard about this, I knew it would be dope," says Juicy J. "The special effects and art in this movie are crazy and producer Michael Bay is a legend. I'm excited to be a part of this film on the 'Shell Shocked' track with Wiz and Ty."

Spirits surging in Toronto
Jays fans could have reason to pay attention after mid-June
TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays have a new skipper, fresh faces on the roster and a renewed sense of confidence.
With one bold megatrade and a few surprise moves, general manager Alex Anthopoulos has put baseball back on the front burner in a city that is starving for a taste of the post-season.
Anthopoulos has addressed several glaring needs and strengthened a sagging starting rotation. The lineup is much deeper, team speed has improved and there is more depth on the roster.
Fans of Canada's only major-league team have endured a near two-decade run of mediocrity. After years of looking down the road, the Blue Jays' future is now.
However, while it's tempting for some fans to start planning the parade route, there is a long list of teams that made big off-season splashes in previous years but flopped in the regular season. It's one of the reasons why team officials haven't made any bold statements or predictions.
"We know we haven't won anything yet, we haven't done anything yet," Anthopoulos said in a recent interview. "We've made some trades and I understand it's always exciting when trades are made.
"But I don't know that anything's ever been won in the winter."
Big changes were made shortly after Toronto wrapped up a 73-win season in 2012, good for a fourth-place finish in the American League East. Injuries and ineffectiveness contributed to some mid-season struggles, resulting in another run of inconsequential late-season games and a rather dreary atmosphere at Rogers Centre.
Anthopoulos made it very clear at season's end that beefing up the team's starting pitching would be a top priority. He delivered by acquiring veteran starters Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle in a huge deal with Miami last month, giving the Jays a couple of inning-eating horses at the front end of the rotation.
All-star shortstop Jose Reyes also came over from the Marlins along with infielder/outfielder Emilio Bonifacio, catcher John Buck and cash considerations. In return, the Blue Jays gave up infielders Yunel Escobar and Adeiny Hechavarria, catcher Jeff Mathis, pitcher Henderson Alvarez and three prospects.
Toronto also got in on the free-agent action this off-season, signing outfielder Melky Cabrera to a two-year deal and infielder Maicer Izturis to a three-year contract. Manager John Farrell was dealt to Boston and John Gibbons was brought back as skipper.
On paper the team looks significantly better. If the players can stay healthy and consistent, the Blue Jays should be in the mix of American League contenders.
But there are still several question marks heading into next season.
Will s lugger Jose Bautista have the same pop after undergoing wrist surgery last summer? Can Edwin Encarnacion duplicate the statistics from his breakout season? Will Cabrera be able to post the same numbers he did with San Francisco before his suspension for a positive testosterone test last August?
The other teams in the always-tough AL East have also been busy and there is no clear favourite at this point. Anthopoulos feels it will likely come down to health and the performance of every team's key players.
"We thought we had a competitive team last year, obviously we had a lot of injuries," he said. "But those other clubs had a lot of injuries as well and we were still in fourth place. So those other clubs are incredibly strong. They've shown the ability to withstand and to have the depth with the injuries that they sustained last year.
"So from that standpoint, I mean every team in the division, there's just so much parity right now. It's really going to be a coin flip I think in a lot of ways going into next year."
The Blue Jays will look to build on last season's 15 per cent home attendance jump and it's a good bet the team will be a hot ticket out of the gate. Toronto hasn't been to the playoffs since winning the World Series in 1993.

Bobby Womack: Soul Legend Dies, Aged 70
Bobby Womack, the legendary American soul singer, has died aged 70, his publicist has confirmed.
Womack became a key figure in R&B, and is best known for hits including Lookin' For A Love, That's The Way I Feel About 'Cha, and Woman's Gotta Have It.
In 2012, Womack relaunched his career with his first album in more than 10 years - The Bravest Man In The Universe.
The album - produced by Damon Albarn and XL's Richard Russell - made Rolling Stone magazine's 50 Best Albums of 2012.
According to Womack's website he had gigs planned through July and into August. His cause of death is unknown.
Womack was diagnosed with Alzheimer's two years ago and dealt with a number of health issues, including prostate cancer.
He performed recently at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival and seemed in good health and spirits.
Womack caught the attention of the Rolling Stones in the 1960s and influenced many early rockers before fading from popular music for more than a decade.
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009, long after he'd lost his fortune to addiction.
Musicians paid tribute to the singer on Twitter after his death was announced.
Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood tweeted: "I'm so sad to hear about my friend Bobby Womack - the man who could make you cry when he sang has brought tears to my eyes with his passing."
A tweet from the band De La Soul said: "Had the pleasure [of] touring with this kind man for over a year...Just got news that he passed away ... in tears."

Hot Chocolate on a Stick With Salted Caramel Marshmallows
*This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. Thank you for supporting Persia Lou!
A couple years ago, I made hot chocolate on a stick as neighbor gifts. They were super yummy topped with homemade marshmallows. This year I decided to try them again - this time with a twist.
I added a swirl of yummy salted caramel to my marshmallows, and they are super delicious melted into a cup of rich hot chocolate.
I finished my treats off with cute little tags that you can download and print off for your own treats. Here's how to make your own:
Hot Chocolate on a StickSlightly adapted from Makes and Takes
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 fourteen oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups chocolate chips (the first time I made this it was a little too dark for our tastes, so this time I used 1 1/2 cups milk chocolate, 1 cup semi-sweet, and 1/2 cup 60% dark chocolate)
- 1 four oz dark chocolate bar of chocolate broken into pieces
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract (or other flavoring), optional
- Prepare 8x8" pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- Add cream and sweetened condensed milk to saucepan and warm over medium heat until it begins to steam, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat. Add chocolate. Let sit for a few minutes. Stir until chocolate is melted and shiny. Add vanilla or flavoring, if desired.
- Pour/spread into prepared pan.
- Let set over night (or about 12 hours) before cutting. Cut into 36 squares.
Salted Caramel Marshmallows
Adapted from Allrecipes and Food Network
Salted Caramel
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 5 Tbs butter
- 1/2 heavy cream
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
- 3 packages unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 Tbs pure vanilla extract
- powdered sugar for dusting
- Begin by making the salted caramel. Place 1 cup of sugar in a saucepan over medium high heat. Cook, stirring continuously, until sugar melts, begins to turn golden brown, and all chunks are dissolved, about 10 minutes. Stop stirring and let cook for 3-8 minutes more until it darkens to a deep amber and begins to smoke. Remove from heat.
- Add butter, and stir to combine. Slowly pour in heavy cream. Sprinkle in salt and stir to combine. Set caramel aside.
- In bowl of stand mixer combine 3 packages unflavored gelatin and 1/2 cup cold water. Let sit while making the syrup.
- In medium saucepan fitted with candy thermometer combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and 1/2 cup water. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Cook over high heat until the syrup reaches 240 degrees.
- With the whisk attachment and the mixer on slow speed, slowly pour the syrup into the gelatin. Turn the mixer to high speed and whip the mixture until it is opaque, fluffy and nearly tripled in size. Add the vanilla and mix until combined.
- Generously dust 8x12 glass pan with powdered sugar. Pour marshmallow into pan. Spoon the salted caramel on the top of the marshmallow mixture. Use a knife to swirl the caramel into the marshmallow. Smooth top and dust with powdered sugar. Let marshmallow sit uncovered overnight. Cut into squares the same size as the hot chocolate blocks. Coat marshmallows with powdered sugar to keep them from sticking to everything.
To put your hot chocolate sticks together, push a marshmallow onto a lollipop stick , and then add a hot chocolate block. Put each stick in a little cellophane bag and tie with bakers twine or ribbon on top.
Too add tags to your hot chocolate on a stick, print the FREE PRINTABLE off on cardstock. I used kraft cardstock.
Cut the tags out, punch a hole in the top, and tie them onto your hot chocolate sticks. They make a perfect little gift stuffed into a mug.
Come back tomorrow for another printable perfect for any gift tucked into a mug.

DIY Watercolor Wood Letters Tutorial
*This project was originally created by me for Darice. This post includes affiliate links for your convenience. If you make a purchase, it doesn't cost you any extra and you help to support Persia Lou. Thanks!
If you have been around here much (or even if you've never been here before and just looked at my blog header), you probably have figured out that I like watercolors. I have already tried watercolors on fabric, so it was only a matter of time until I tried them out on wood, right? Well, that day has arrived, and good news guys - it's awesome.
A while ago I pinned a beautiful watercolor wood clock from Maker's Society, and I couldn't wait to try the technique out myself. I decided to apply to some wood letters to hang in my daughter's new room.
Here's what you need to make your own!
instagram or post them to my facebook page!

A while ago I pinned a beautiful watercolor wood clock from Maker's Society, and I couldn't wait to try the technique out myself. I decided to apply to some wood letters to hang in my daughter's new room.
Here's what you need to make your own!
- 12 inch unfinished wood letters - I like the clean shape of these Darice letters. You can get them at Consumer Crafts or Amazon
- Watercolor Paints - tube or pan paints, even cheap kids' paints will work
- Brush
- Water
- Paper Towels
- Command strips for hanging
Start by wetting the portion of the letter you want to paint. You can use a wet brush or just stick it under the faucet like I did. When the wood is wet, the colors will blend and spread more easily.
Load your brush with colors and paint the portion you have wetted. I used a darker magenta color on the bottom and blended it up into a bright pink.
Use a brush loaded with clean water to blend and spread the color. I went for a kind of uneven, organic shape. I love that you can see the wood grain through the watercolor. So pretty!
When your letters are dry, you can put them on a shelf or attach them to the wall using command strips.

"Hello Giggles" - When Alex (Chris D'Elia) takes an accidental dive off stage while speaking at his alma mater, Whitney's (Whitney Cummings) reaction is less than heartwarming. Meanwhile, R.J. (Tone Bell) tries to school Mark (Dan O'Brien) on the art of chivalry using Lily (Zoe Lister-Jones) as an example. Roxanne (Rhea Seehorn), Mark's intended target doesn't initially take his bait. WHITNEY airs on NBC on Wednesday, December 12 at 8pm!
NBC's multi-camera comedy "Whitney" is a hilarious look at modern day love, which centers around Whitney (Whitney Cummings, "Chelsea Lately") and Alex (Chris D'Elia, "Glory Daze"), a happily unmarried couple. Together for three years, the duo is in no rush to get hitched.
The couple is surrounded by their quirky group of friends, Zoe Lister-Jones ("The Other Guys"), Rhea Seehorn ("The Starter Wife"), Dan O'Brien ("How I Met Your Mother"), and Tone Bell (new to the second season of the show).
At the end of the day, Whitney and Alex realize that while their relationship might not be perfect on paper, they really do love each other -- and that works for them.
The series is produced by Universal Television and Bluegrass Television. The executive producers are Scott Stuber ("The Breakup"), Quan Phung, Wil Calhoun ("Friends") and Barry Katz ("Last Comic Standing") are executive producers along with Cummings who is the executive producer/writer and Andy Ackerman ("Seinfeld") who is executive producer/director.

Duraflex BMW X6 Body Kits
Featured Body Kits Products
Duraflex BMW X6 body kits are add-ons and replacements that can be installed to upgrade and revitalize a ride's appearance. After years of wear and tear, the exterior components on many cars begins to look outdated. Any damage to a car's paint job or to the exterior parts themselves can lower a car's value, making the use of bodykits is just that much more important.

Most stylish Duraflex BMW X6 body kit upgrades include replacements for several exterior parts, front & back bumpers and side skirts. These are the places of a car that are most typically damaged from regular driving, but they alone aren't the only pieces that could be easily fixed. Other custom exterior parts can be used to upgrade a car's exterior style, so Duraflex BMW X6 body kit can sometimes be tailored to a car owner's specific requirement. For an improved appearance that eliminates the old looks came from years of driving, a cool body kit can serve you well.
