impact how clients feel about themselves. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction that comes from watching someone shyly check out a new look in the salon mirrors and watching as a broad smile appears on their face. Because you interact with people who depend on you to help them freshen up their appearance, it's extremely to take pride in how you look every day.
In many respects, your appearance could positively or negatively affect the probability that people will trust you when it comes to making stylish improvements. After all, if your own strands are unkempt or characterised by a lacklustre colour, it's not hard to understand why clients might feel hesitant about letting you offer advice.
"Use Items that Your Studio Sells-
Often, an impressive look is much easier to pull off with help from styling aids, whether they're serums, creams or other hairdresser supplies. When customers love your haircut, don't be surprised if they inquire about what you did to achieve the results. It's easy to turn that curiosity into a sales opportunity, simply by explaining which items you used, and then gently informing the client that those things are available on your retail shelves.
This type of guidance can help customers breathe easier, especially if a specific product comes in many varieties. With your help, they can know with certainty that they're buying the same things you use at home. Otherwise, they might try to shop for beauty supplies independently and possibly risk the frustration of buying something that isn't quite what they intended.
"Don't Be Afraid to Try Dramatic Styles -
Have you ever noticed that customers might be tempted to try something especially creative with their new look, but ultimately decide on something more conservative? That may happen because people see something in their mind's eyes, but are unable to adequately convey how that image would translate from the imaginary world to the real one.
Demonstrate how you're ready and willing to give clients the information they need to settle upon a cut or colour they'll love. If a person sees how you take risks of your own, he or she might be more willing to let you exercise creative freedom when you lift the scissors and prepare to get to work.
Clearly, it's simple and fun to stimulate demand for time in your hairdressing salon chairs, sometimes without having to say a word. Take that reality to heart and focus on your appearance now.

A beauty salon always helps anyone look his or her best. In addition, when the service rendered by the beauty salon is affordable, that makes it even better. A good quality beauty salon will have all the necessary equipment to give the best makeover from head to toe, not only to women but also to men.
Starting a business or maintaining and existing beauty salon is an expensive proposition. Besides the actual physical space you will need, which may be a building full building or a studio that is purchased or rented, your next biggest investment will be equipment and beauty salon furniture.
At the best of times, your hairdresser studio perpetually bustles with new and old customers. However, it's not realistic to plan on getting to that point without paying attention to community engagement. Fortunately, there are a few easy and inexpensive ways to inform members of the public about what your business does, even without requiring them to book an appointment in one of the salon chairs.
In the ideal world, everyone who sits in a salon chair would emerge completely satisfied and confident. Unfortunately, that's not always the case, and since some people are afraid to return to their original stylists, many first appointments are made to fix haircut mistakes made at other establishments. Keep reading to learn how to teach employees how to tackle these situations with poise and confidence.
A diabetic customer recently sued the beauty parlor that caused her to suffer burns from her nail service. Pat Liapis of Direct Salon Equipment talks about how the right salon supplies can lessen these cases of negligence.
March 7, 2013 – Last month, the cased was finally closed after a 66 year-old woman sued the hair and nail parlor in California that caused her to stay in the hospital for a month due to negligence. The salon had to pay $20,000,000 because of the damages that they have cause
With a number of salons in your area, how do you make a great first impression to attract and keep customers? Marketing aside, how your business appears is important. Does your storefront look attractive? Clean windows, easy to read signage and even pretty ferns, flowers and other greenery can create a pleasing aesthetic appearance that looks inviting. Of course, the salon equipment and furniture you choose indoors also contribute to your business's overall ambiance.
According to the MFL Occupational Health Center, 40 percent of beauty salon stylists leave the workplace because of health and safety issues. Musculoskeletal complaints are the top culprits. This post highlights on nail services. Pat Liapis of Direct Salon Equipment also makes comments about the importance of the right salon furniture to ensure the safety of workers.
Many clients leave your salon wishing they knew how to achieve the exact same results at home. Although it's difficult to exactly replicate salon quality results at home, if clients were able to learn hands-on from stylists and makeup artists they could make the most of their hair and makeup everyday. Holding classes helps you expand your business, and it's also a great marketing tool.
Whether you're opening a brand new salon or renovating an existing salon, having quality salon furniture is imperative to the success of a salon. It's tempting to purchase really cheap furniture to keep overhead costs down, but you may end up spending more money in the long run. Salon furniture that's sold cheaply is often not of the same quality as higher priced furniture.
At Direct Salon Equipment, you'll find Australia's most innovative & competitive range of salon furniture at unbeatable everyday low prices.
Over 200 items to choose from with several ranges to make Direct Salon Equipment your "One Stop Shop". Whether you need a one off item or a full salon refurbishment, DSE is there for you.

A move hailed by Kabul as a victory for sovereignty, analysts say it is largely symbolic as NATO prepares to leave Afghanistan after more than a decade fighting the Taliban, leaving Afghan security personnel in charge in late 2014. Major questions remain over the immediate and long-term fate of more than 3,100 inmates, which include Taliban fighters and terror suspects, held at Bagram, sometimes referred to as the Guantanamo Bay of Afghanistan.
Around 50 foreigners are not covered by the agreement and hundreds of other Afghans arrested since the transfer deal was signed on Mar 9 are also being held at the Parwan Detention Facility, outside the Bagram US airbase north of Kabul. Afghan officials today presided over a small handover ceremony, which was marked by a low attendance among US and NATO officers.
"I'm happy that today we are witnessing a glorious ceremony that marks the handing over of responsibilities of Afghan prisoners to Afghans themselves," acting defence minister Enayatullah Nazari told the ceremony. Afghan military police commander Safiullah Safi said that 3,182 prisoners had been formally handed over to Afghan military police, following a six-month transition.
Karzai demanded authority over the prison as conditional to addressing long-term Afghan-US relations and possible legal immunity for US troops -- the key to troops remaining in the country after 2014. But the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) governing the handover is not legally binding.
Karzai's spokesman, Aimal Faizi, says there are disagreements over the interpretation of the deal and that more than 600 people detained since Mar 9 have not yet been transferred to Afghan custody.

Chapter 6: Product Specifications Product Design and Development Fifth Edition by Karl T. Ulrich and Steven D. Eppinger
Access objects in the bag quickly and easily. The person must be able to retrieve items of interest in an unawkward fashion. A user should be able to access common items while standing up with minimal effort. Be able to locate items easily in the bag. Customer needs an easier way to pay for purchases. More storage options for better organization. New location for checkbook. Person needs a way to see into the backpack easily so that they can find checkbook easier. Customer needs bag with compartments they can reach while wearing the bag. A wallet with a debit card and built in ID. Hands free way of holding bag so both hands can be used in looking for stuff. Velcro pockets on the outside to hold wallet, checkbook and such. Reflection on Customer Need Statements
Suggested Solutions See how the leather on the bottom of the bag is all scratched; it's ugly. When I'm standing in line at the cashier trying to find my checkbook while balancing my bag on my knee, I feel like a stork. This bag is my life; if I lose it I'm in big trouble. There's nothing worse than a banana that's been squished by the edge of a textbook. I never use both straps on my knapsack; I just sling it over one shoulder. The bag maintains its original appearance with use. Bag allows easy access to items Bag is easy to find. The bag protects fragile items from damage. The bag can rest securely in multiple modes (either or both shoulders.) The bag can be carried comfortably in multiple modes (one shoulder strap, two shoulder straps, or hand hold.)

The Blind Men and the Elephant A Hindu fable by John Godfrey Saxe from Elephants Ancient and Modern by FC Sillar and RM Meyler. It was six men of Indostan To learning much inclined, Who went to see the Elephant (Though all of them were blind), That each by observation Might satisfy his mind. The First approached the Elephant, And happening to fall Against his broad and sturdy side, At once began to bawl: `God bless me! but the Elephant Is very like a wall!' The Second, feeling of the tusk, Cried, `Ho! what have we here So very round and smooth and sharp? To me 'tis mighty clear This wonder of an Elephant Is very like a spear!' The Third approached the animal, And happening to take The squirming trunk within his hands, Thus boldly up and spake: `I see,' quoth he, `the Elephant Is very like a snake.' The Fourth reached out his eager hand, And felt about the knee. `What most this wondrous beast is like Is mighty plain,' quoth he; `'Tis clear enough the Elephant Is very like a tree!' The Fifth who chanced to touch the ear, Said: `E'en the blindest man Can tell what this resembles most: Deny the fact who can, This marvel of an Elephant Is very like a fan!' The Sixth no sooner had begun About the beast to grope, Than, seizing on the swinging tail That fell within his scope, `I see,' quoth he, `the Elephant Is very like a rope!' And so these men of Indostan Disputed loud and long, Each in his own opinion Exceeding stiff and strong, Though each was partly in the right, And all were in the wrong! So, oft in theologic wars, The disputants, I ween, Rail on in utter ignorance Of what each other mean, And prate about an Elephant Not one of them has seen!

The Product Specs Process Set Target Specifications – Based on customer needs and benchmarks – Develop metrics for each need – Set ideal and acceptable values Refine Specifications – Based on selected concept and feasibility testing – Technical modeling – Trade-offs are critical Reflect on the Results and the Process – Critical for ongoing improvement
Product Specifications Example: Mountain Bike Suspension Fork
Start with the Customer Needs
What are some customer needs for the catapult-like device? Size matters not.
Establish Metrics and Units
Metrics Exercise: Ball Point Pen Customer Need: The pen writes smoothly.
Additional Areas to Consider Physical requirements Functional requirements Service environment (comprehensive: insect and bird damage) Kinematics – type of motion, direction, velocity, acceleration Forces - direction, magnitude, frequency, resonance, stiffness Materials – properties of final product, flow of materials, design for manufacturing
Design Specification Checklist Performance At what speed must it operate? How often will it be used (continuous or discontinuous use)? How long must it last? Environment (during manufacture, storage and use) All aspects of the product's likely environment should be considered: for example temperature, humidity, risk of corrosion, vibration. Target product cost This is strongly affected by the intended market. Competition What is the nature and extent of existing or likely competition? Does our specification differ from the competition? If so, why? Quantity and manufacture Should it be made in bulk, in batches, or as individual items made to order? Does it have to be a particular shape? Can we make all the parts or must we buy some in? Materials Are special materials needed? Do we have experience of working with the likely candidate materials? Quality and consistency What levels of quality and consistency does the market expect for this product? Does every product have to be tested? Standards Does the product need to conform to any local, international or customer standards? Is the product safe? Patents Are there any patents we may either infringe or register? Packaging and shipping How will the product be packaged? How will the product be distributed? Aesthetics and ergonomics Is the product easy and fun to use? Is it attractive to the right customer? Market constraints Does a market already exist or must it be created? What is the likely product lifetime? How long do we have to get the product to market? What are the customers' likes and dislikes? Company constraints Does the product fit in with company image? Are we constrained in material or process choice? Are there any political considerations? http://labspace.open.ac.uk/mod/resource/view.php?id=194654

This hotel is good with spacious rooms staff was very polite & helpful our request for driver's accommodation was met promptly rooms were very clean and well maintained the hotel doesn't have good dining options.
The hotel far is away from the railway station and also from the Bus Stand, near there is good mall also there, the staff is very good. In future I can recommend the hotel to my family members.
Stinking room, no cleanliness, no room service ppl, broken AC, no intercom, the management least interested to serve you.

Staying in this hotel is a Nightmare. I stayed for 5 days and changed 3 rooms. Room nos. 105, 204 and 203. All the amenities were not working. First 2 days whenever I used to order anything, I had to wait for 30 minutes. In one room intercom was not working and the other rooms cool water supply was unavailable. Internet connection was very poor. If you have self respect and do not want to get humiliated then never ever stay in this so called renovated hotel. Male staff member in front office was very rude when I checked out. Pathetic experience. Pratik K. Tejani

Hotel Suresh Plaza Nashik is not a good place to stay. I have been there on Dec 23rd, 2012. The rooms are very small, conjusted and shabby. Romms don't have sufficient light which makes it even more shabby. Walls are full of water patches. Even the house keeping was also not up to the mark, specially keeping in mind the tariff. If you ask me, I will never suggest this hotel, specially for family.

The last time we saw Rose Red, she had a dog collar around her neck and was being led to water. This time we get to take a sneak peek at how Rose became a member of our team! Rose has a coke bottle figure, and an ass that just does not quit and Tony was hypnotized by its size and beauty! She was ready to go even before she put the dick in her mouth. This redheaded stunner knows how to put her booty to good use and she has one of the most intense orgasms weve caught on film! It was so intense that Tony just had to bust his nut all over Roses juicy ass. The rest, as they say, is history.

These roses are gorgeous. They remind me a little of stained glass. Fantastic design!

Thanks Su & Victoria for the lovely comments, glad you like the roses.
victorialasher says:
Pretty colors and an interesting stylization of the roses; very nice.
su_g says:
Lovely color scheme and the construction of the roses is quite intriguing - and different - close up. I can visualise this as a cocktail frock and up on the stage, with the scale and degree of separation of the floral motifs.
madex says:
Thanks Rhonda for such a lovely comment, I must try and do a mock up of this on a dress.

The bold blushing beauties in this beguiling design would make up into a fabulous, flirty, fifties look frock!

The last article I wrote made me want to show my fellow men some attention too. While this page isn't biased, it sometimes seems that way because both me and Z are sensitive guys, we are both in happy relationships and sometimes it seems like all we care about are the ladies on our page, that's not true. Men are different, men are strong, men are often quiet about their feelings because it's just not in their nature, men tend to expect a certain amount of things from their partners and they don't want to ask for those things because they think it's pretty obvious. This article is for all the ladies out there who have a difficult time in reading the minds of their men. Some of these might seem majorly obvious but I wouldn't be writing them if people didn't ignore them. Let's begin.
9. They want respect
This is one of the pillars of every successful relationship. All men desire respect from their partners, I do too. I consider myself very lucky because I never had to ask for it, it's a very sad place to be in if you actually have to ask for respect from your significant other. What does it mean to respect a guy? It's very simple. Men need acknowledgment. Acknowledgment of their success, their positivities and their endeavours. Let me talk about myself, I'm successful in life because of the support I get from people, because of the acceptance and the feeling of love I get that no matter what decision I take, I'll always have people who will be proud of my accomplishments. My girlfriend is a blessing to me because she respects me for who I am and she NEVER lets a day go by without reassuring me of my life. She respects me in front of my friends even more. It means the world to me to know that the love of my life truly respects me for everything I am. It's not that hard, ladies. Make him smile.
8. Pure admiration
Admiration and respect really go hand in hand with one another. Your man wants nothing more from you than your admiration in whatever he does for the two of you. The point here is "TRUE" admiration, you can't be fake about it. Guys can very easily sense fake admiration and they may or may not tell you to stop faking it. Just be true about it, admire him for everything he does, for all the hard work he puts in for the two of you and he'll be pleased more than ever. Trust me, it works. She admires me for everything I am and I do the same in return, no fake admiration whatsoever. Complete happiness isn't that hard to achieve. – continue reading on next page

BAGHDAD, Iraq—The fate of the Iraqi people and the reconstruction of Iraq are a common question for many people in the world. The United States Army directly interacts with the Iraqi people through the Army Civil Affairs (CA). They are the eyes and ears of the commanders with the Iraqi people.
For Maj. Raymond Pfahl, Jr. from Warsaw, Ind., the Iraqi people are no mystery to his soldiers. Pfahl, 50, is Company Commander of Charlie Company of the 414 Battalion CA, from Syracuse, deployed to Forward Operating Base (FOB) Camp Taji, 30 km north of Baghdad.
While many soldiers who serve in Iraq have limited interaction, or at best, hostile engagements in Iraq, Pfahl's company of soldiers works with the Iraqi people outside the comforts of the base nearly everyday.
"I think we are doing a wonderful job a lot of people do not hear about." Building schools, fixing water pumping and treatment plants, building women's centers and helping maintain the gas and electricity for the Iraqi people in the Taji area are a few of the successes.
Pfahl was laid off from his job with a medical company in Warsaw prior to his deployment. He retired from the military but stayed on the Inactive Ready Reserve (IRR) list. Had he not been on this list, Phafl wound not have been called up for duty.
His wife, a retired a captain in the Army, is used to his deployments. Pfahl previously served in the Special Forces, but he said, "That was many moons ago."
Although CA are deployed to help the Iraqi people, they do get attacked.
"I did have a team get hit up here in May," said Pfahl. "The Humvee took most of the blast and people were able to walk away."
Over 95% of the of the CA are reservist. The theory is that CA works best with reserve soldiers because they need to think outside the box of the military and interact with civilians in foreign lands.
Like Pfahl, most of his team was on the IRR list. Some of the soldiers on the IRR stay on the list and get money from the Army to be ready for call up. Others, such as officers, are committed to several years of IRR after they serve active duty.
Just after Pfahl and his company arrived, their sister Unit the 490 Civil Affairs lost three soldiers from an Improvised Explosive Device (IED.)
"I try not to go out as much as possible," said Pfahl. He added that the mission requires the CA to go out and work with the Iraqi people, so his team has no choice but to drive around the Northern Baghdad area, where they work.
I spent a week working with three of the five teams in Charlie Company. I regret that I do not have many photos of the CA working with the Iraqi people. This is not because they were not with the people, but rather a matter of survival. A photo is death, at times. If one of the insurgent groups acquires a picture of an interpretor, or someone else working with the US troops, they, or their family, will likely be killed.
One writer here in Baghdad told me that two of his stories in a row resulted in attacks on the places he wrote about, where Iraqis were working with the US Army. Regardless of the dangers, the reconstruction of Iraq continues, just as it has after other wars.
The type of work that Civil Affairs started after World War II. With the need for a temporary military government to reestablish water, sewer, transportation, police, fire, and other basic services to war torn Europe, North Africa and Japan. In Vietnam, the Special Forces were tasked with Civil Affairs job as part of the "hearts and minds" campaign.
The U.S. Army Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations Command of today officially began in October 1985 with the formation of the 1st Special Operations Command Augmentation Detachment, which evolved into the United States Army Reserve Special Operations Command (USARSOC). On Nov. 27, 1990, USARSOC was renamed United States Army Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations Command (A), coinciding with Operation Desert Shield.
Fathers and Sons on the Battlefield
While Pfahl was in training at Fort Bragg, he crossed paths with his son, Raymond Pfahl III, who also serves in the Army. His son was preparing for a possible deployment as well. Like Pfahl, Sgt. 1st Class James Lefurgey, 58, has a son in the military. Lefugey's son deployed to Iraq a little longer than a year before his father.
Lefurgey, a mortician at Palm's Funeral Home in Angleton, Tex., retired from the military after over 20 years of service. His first combat tour was in Vietnam. In Iraq, he holds a variety of jobs in and outside the wire from driver to gunner to acting Non Commissioned Officer In Charge (NCOIC) for the company. He is also in charge of security for his team.
"I am a man of many hats," he said.
His impression of Iraq is simple: "Hot—everyday it's hot."
"Some days you step outside and it feels like you got your clothes pressed and you are still in them," he said. "Anytime you come back and haven't lost any one that is a good day."
Lefurgey stayed on the IRR list and knew he could be called up to serve his country again. "I think that everyone had it in the back of their minds that there is always that possibility," he said.
Almost everyday Lefurgey is outside the wire with his team. He has the opportunity to interact with Iraqi people—and children.
"The children are the future of Iraq," he said. "I have to admit some have minds that are poisoned. Ideology is a hard thing to fight."
This is Lefugey's 8th trip over seas with the military and his third combat tour since 1968.
"I'm like everyone else—everyone wants to go home," he said.
Capt. Mario Tovar, 29, worked as a Production Supervisor at Hill-Rom Hospital Beds in Batesville, Ind.
"I was always interested in the military as a kid," he said, adding that he collected military patches.
"My dad spent a couple years in the Marines," he said. "I could tell how much he loved it even though it was just a snap shot of his life."
Tovar said he was "a little terrified" of working with the Iraqi people. He served previously in Operation Iraqi Freedom I as an Armor Officer but had limited interaction with the Iraqi people. Now, he has become more at ease with his job.
"In a lot of ways it is kind of fun," he said. "I feel like I am making a difference."
Tovar was on the IRR list as an part of his commitment as an officer and called back for this deployment and retrained in Civil Affairs.
Sgt. John Prince, 36, had already served in the Army as a MP from 1987 to 1992. But after hearing on a radio talk show "that no one wanted to serve our country," his sense of duty and patriotism inspired him to reenlisted in the Army Reserve as part of the Civil Affairs (CA). Prince works on Tovar's team.
"We do everything from water, school repair, bridges and road pavings to handing out medical and school supplies," Prince said.
Staff Sgt. Harris Stanley Dail served the last 12 years in active duty with the Army Reserve.
"I love the work," he said, about being in Iraq. "It makes getting out of bed a lot easier."
Dail worked in logistics for his Army Reserve battalion in North Carolina. In 1992, he served in Cuba at Guantanamo doing CA work with Haitians refugees. Ironically, he was deployed for the work, then afterwards sent to CA training.
Dail likes hunting and camping, misses his fiance back in Greenville, NC. He keeps in touch with his two daughters and lets them know he is OK.
"My main job is operations NCO," he said, adding that he is also acting motor sergeant and "jack of all trades."
When I went on a mission with Dail, he was working as a gunner.
"I'll be outside sweating to death in the turret," he said.
Dail choose to come to Iraq and like Prince, was one of the few that choose Civil Affairs as a job.
"It's alright," he said. "The days are long and the nights are short."
Capt. Holly Hanson, 31, leads another CA team at Taji. She had no previous experience in CA, like her NCOIC, Staff Sgt. John Crawford, 34.
Crawford wants to focus on his medical career and family as soon as he finishes in Iraq. He was called up on the last month of his commitment to the Army Reserve and retained for the deployment as part of the "Stop Loss" program in the Army. He worked at St. Luke's in Kansas City as a nurse. Now he is a driver for his CA team.
"I'd like to be home," he said. "But I can't let the team down because I don't want to be here."
"You still have an obligation," he said. "I work with a good team."
"Initially, when I was called back, I was disappointed, " said Hanson. She was working in Europe as a school teacher and had to give up that job for this deployment.
"If I want to change careers, now is the time," she said.
I've taken the time to share with you the profiles of some of the soldiers I meet who are working in Civil Affairs to show you what is going on. These soldiers were for the most part living civilian lives and most of them had no experience in Civil Affairs. But all of them have survived the steep learning curve once their boots hit the ground, and their mission tasked to them.
I was surprised at the high level of morale for soldiers tasked for such a difficult and dangerous job—a job that most of them did not sign up for, or ever want to be a part of.
My first mission with CA at Taji was with Hanson. She was meeting with the local representative for the Ministry of Oil, checking up on propane distribution. Iraqi citizens are alloted a certain amount of propane by their government for home us. Unfortunately, we learned that insurgents had blown up the propane gas line. The Iraqis sent into to repair the damage were killed. Propane was trucked in, but often the trucks did not make it for their deliveries.
Over the next week, I went out on several other missions. With Tovar's team, we were going to a local government meeting, called a Nahia. The day before, 85 Iraqi civilians were kidnapped on the buses they took home from work. These people worked in a factory in the same area. No one showed up to this meeting. We stopped at the local Iraqi Police station to check out some of the repairs going on there. This day was cut short.
The next mission, we went to check on the water pumps. Farming in the Taji area is an important industry. Water is pumped all over from canals connected to the Tigris River for alfalfa, wheat, barley, animal fodder and cucumbers. Hanson along with other CA teams were checking out this water distribution problem. We learned, through a series of interviews and investigations that the destruction of the propane line also cut the production of electricity for the Taji area. The electricity was produced at a propane plant. This cut the availability of water that could be pumped. Also, illegal tapping of the power lines caused numerous power outages. Water was only pumped to farms for about three hours a day.
I asked Hanson while working with her if she had any troubles doing her job in Iraq, with Iraqi men in particular, regarding the different roles women play in that culture. She said that before her deployment, another female officer had served before her and the men were used to dealing with female US Army soldiers.
"I think they know that women are treated differently,"she said."For the most part, I haven't had any issues."
While I was working with the CA, I was able to get a break down of the Iraqi economy in the area.
Gas was about 45 cents a gallon three months ago. In June, it was about $2.75 gallon. Skilled labor pays about $25 a day and unskilled is $10. Most of the food is very inexpensive. With constant attacks by insurgents, gas and electricity are at a shortage. This is very unpleasant and frustrating for the Iraqi people.
CA works hard to breath life into the nascent Iraqi Government. They assist the Iraqi government, but do not act as a government agency. For instance, at one meeting, an Iraqi man on crutches approached Hanson requesting a wheel chair.
"It was the council's responsibility to hand them out to the people," said Hanson. She knew of a wheelchair in a near boy town and suggested to the man that he ask his government council to ask the other council for a chair.
Many times, the CA help Iraqis get together to solve problems, instead of solving the problems for the Iraqis. The government of Saddam Hussein was not democratic, or geared for the needs of the people. Many new skills are being learned by the Iraqis, daily.
Two other projects I visited with Hanson were a girls school and a women's center. Both were newly constructed buildings, near completion. The Iraqis segregate their genders. Unlike Afghanistan, females attending school is not as controversial for the Iraqi people. The Women's Center will provide vocational skills for women, and was harder to get together.
"Some people question the value of the project," said Hanson. "I was surprised it even got funded."
Outside the Women's Center, sewage flowed in an open trench in the street. Hanson said that was another project that needed to be looked into.
One afternoon, we stopped at a local contractors house. He did a lot of work helping reconstruct Iraq, and was able to work in dangerous areas, and sometimes worked for free. His grandfather had 11 wives, he said. This gave him a lot of family connections in the Baghdad area.
We had a late lunch at his house of lamb and rice. The portions were very generous. He did provide us with silverware. Iraqis eat with their hands. He served us with his hands, breaking off pieces of meat and placing them on our plates. We ate a table without chairs standing up. He said that is a normal way that Iraqis eat, sometimes.
"We like Americans," he said through an interpretor. "Iraqi's need to forgive each other and rebuild."
"Insurgents are every where," he said. "They see you and you don't see them."
He told me that most Iraqis appreciate the US helping the reconstruction. He said one of the biggest problems in Iraq is the border needs to be protected from terrorists crossing into Iraq and waging war in his country. He and some of his friends also asked me if I could help them immigrate to the US.
"We want you to stay here until everything is done—then we will be friends. Coalition forces are good. They don't hurt people."
Throughout the entire week I was pleased to find out that at least in Iraq, public smoking is OK. In the public and private meetings almost everyone smoked. Iraq has some freedoms over California, for sure.

Baylor WR Levi Norwood to miss at least three weeks
Baylor's training room is filling up on wide receivers quickly.
The Waco Tribune-Herald's John Werner is reporting that receiver Levi Norwood will undergo wrist surgery and miss at least three weeks. Norwood suffered the injury during Baylor's win against SMU Sunday.
Now, the loss of Norwood alone would not be that big of a deal, but he's not the player Baylor will be without against Northwestern State. Antwan Goodley is out with a quad injury while Corey Coleman and Clay Fuller will also miss Saturday's game.
That quartet makes up Baylor's four leading returning receivers from 2013, and they combined for 185 catches for 3,111 yards and 26 touchdowns last week. Goodley (71 rec., 1,339 yards, 13 TD in 2013) and Norwood (47 rec., 733 yards, 8 TD) are the biggest losses, but if there's good news for the Bears it's that they likely won't need any of them against Northwestern State.
As Baylor has shown the last few years under Art Briles, it just sends guys out there and scores 70 points with alarming regularity. I'm guessing Northwestern State won't be capable of stopping it from happening.

At this point in Saturday Night Live's history, any edition with a few good sketches plus good performances by the guest host must be counted a success. So it was this week with Emma Stone and at a series of solid moments.
Stone endeared herself to millions during the very first sketch, when she played opposite Kristen Wiig in a "Dream Home Extreme" sketch. As Wiig's character did standard Wiig stuff — condescending generic-Southern accent; wiggly-nervous moves — Stone's character stood there poker-faced, just as we do at home when Wiig is trying to sell a sketch.
An excellent "Digital Short" featured Stone in a music video as a high school girl who kept slipping on a patch of grape jelly. Stone's lip-synching and falling were impeccable, and just when it looked as though the short had peaked, the jelly itself began rapping. Good 'n' absurd.

DOWN and out in Paris on Saturday night. Will it be the same in London next weekend when Stade Français come calling at Loftus Road? Unless London Wasps can raise their game significantly, the Heineken Cup this season — and any of the domestic tournaments for that matter — is now beyond them.
They have lost the esprit de corps that so characterised the club during the 1990s, though why that should be, with so few changes in personnel, is hard to determine. It is disconcerting to hear of internal disciplinary action being taken against two players after stupid behaviour

Just Walking and Talking with Jesus
There are times
When the blues
Come upon me so discovered a great way
To make my day
Venture out into nature
Pick a path
That brings contentment
Venture forth with Jesus by your side
Down the path I go
I see laughing children at play
Jesus I say what a joy it is
To see them all so happy
I don't expect an answer
But I know my companion
Is surely listening
And that is enough for me
We walk on
At both sides of the road
Trees are whispering
In the gentle breeze
And I say
Jesus how wonderful it is
That when the wind blows through the trees
It's as if they have found a voice
I can hear their whispers
And even if I don't understand
It makes me feel so much closer
To the mighty trees
Soon birds fill the skies
And I look at their majestic flight
They spread their wings
And soar with ease
Jesus how great it is
That you've created birds
That can soar to the highest heights
Which I can never achieve
The sun grows a bit warmer
And I can imagine
My understanding and patient companion
Smiling at simple me
Down by the river
Where the Daugava flows swiftly
I see upon the choppy waves
Seagulls bobbing
And I say, Jesus how lovely the river looks
Sun reflecting tiny diamonds on the water
The seagulls in contentment
Swinging upon the waves
Wonder what it would be like
If I could join them
Perhaps become light as a feather
And dance across the river
As always I marvel at the clouds
There up above
Sailing across the skies
In different shapes and sizes
Jesus how wonderful it is
To gaze at the clouds
I see so many wondrous things there
Sometimes people, sometimes creatures
Jesus could it be
That when I see faces
They are those of my dear ones
Looking down on me?
We move onwards
And soon I'm back home
Suddenly my mood has changed
And a burden has been lifted
I feel good again
And I say, thank you Jesus
For taking the time
To walk and talk with me for awhile
Never expecting to get an answer
I know He understands
But then the clouds shift
And a brighter warmer light appears
I know my companion
Has heard all I've said
I know He's glad I found the comfort
I needed through Him

A beautiful thought of a walk with our Saviour.
