I wanted to let you know about Kiva (www.kiva.org), a non-profit that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur across the globe.

You choose who to lend to – whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq – and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It’s a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.

Check it my page here Ray Watson – Kiva. Why don’t you help someone today!

The worst thing ever developed in the United States has to be the philips screw. It is THE worst screw design ever. Why can’t we just settle on the Robertson screw design and stop swearing at stripped screws!!!!!
