Anthony Omari Late on the night of January 23, 2012, a 24 year-old Kenyan uber-hero named Anthony Omari awoke to find three gigantic dudes with machetes standing over his bed.

Badass of the Week: Anthony Omari

He knew right away that they weren't there to sell Girl Scout cookies or ask him for a jumping mid-air high-five. Omari is the custodian of Faraja Children's Home in Ngong, Kenya – a sanctuary of healing and love that over the past several years has grown from a tin-roofed one-room shack in the slums of Nairobi into a decent-sized facility that has taken in 37 boys and girls who have been abandoned or orphaned from the street. A place of hope and peace for children who have tragically slipped through the cracks of Kenyan society.

Omari's mother, known to her charges only as "Momma", runs the Home, and, ever the diligent son, Anthony lives at the facility and helps his mom make sure that the children are provided for with a warm bed, a hot meal, a primary school education, and medical attention when they need it. Dr. Oz's 99 Healthiest Supermarket Foods. Vodka Makes The Perfect Cocktail, But What Else Can It Do? 16 weird and wonderful uses for vodka... and a few drink recipes. At a recent cocktail party, I was surprised to find people favoring brandy and bourbon drinks over vodka drinks. It surprised me because vodka has always seemed to me to be the go-to choice for a good drink. Maybe a Martini, a vodka tonic, a Cosmo, or even a Black Russian, all delicious drinks. I’m a vodka fan, personally. And even though vodka seems to have fallen out of favor over the last few years as a perfect cocktail mixer, I still think the Martini is one of the best cocktails ever invented.

With vodka out of favor at the local bar, I started to wonder how else vodka might earn its keep, and found out something pretty interesting. Forever alone whale. Concerned owl is concerned.

Cruise Ship VS Nursing Home

At dinner we noticed an elderly lady sitting alone along the rail of the grand stairway in the main dining room. I also noticed that all the staff, ships officers, waiters, busboys, etc., all seemed very familiar with this lady. I asked our waiter who the lady was, expecting to be told that she owned the line, but he said he only knew that she had been on board for the last four cruises, back to back. As we left the dining room one evening I caught her eye and stopped to say hello.

We chatted and I said, "I understand you've been on this ship for the last four cruises". Landscapes, photos of landscapes, pictures - Waterfalls Havasu.

It came to me on a piece of paper in the 90's with no attribution, and I thought it would make a cool web page. Though I searched for the origin, I could never find it.

Combine one word from each of the three columns below, prefaced with "Thou": Is it OK to run an illegal library from my locker at school. What a question! And I mean it in a good way... I do think that is not so OK because it is against your school's rule. But I think, both as a teen and a reader, these rules should not be implied... ...Because it's like your school is taking away your chances as readers to read those good books. That's so sad.
