Take One Book Literacy Campaign for Ethiopia
One book can change a life. That is what Ethiopia Reads founder Yohannes Gebregiorgis discovered at 19 years of age when he held his first book. Now you have the opportunity to change a life through Ethiopia Reads’ “TAKE ONE BOOK” campaign. In recognition of the Millenium celebration in Ethiopia this year we are committed to donating at least 2,000 books to children in Ethiopia.
Ethiopia Reads, founded in 2003, works to improve literacy and create a culture of reading in Ethiopia. We do this by planting libraries and publishing books in local languages as well as offering continuing education programs to help educators in Ethiopia nurture a love of reading.
Since Ethiopia Reads opened Ethiopia’s first free children’s library in 2003, thousands of children have experienced the joy of reading. The library received 60,000 visits to the library in 2006. Ethiopia Reads sees first hand the difference that one library, ONE BOOK, and one story can make in the life of a child.
If you or someone you know is traveling to Ethiopia during 2007, Ethiopia Reads challenges you to TAKE ONE BOOK with you, because we believe that education is hope and books can change lives. Books can be dropped off at the Shola Children’s Library in Addis Ababa. Shola is located in Beklo-Bet, behind the Dashen Bank off of Debre Zeit road.
If you are not traveling this year but want to make a difference in Ethiopia, we are collecting books in Washington, DC to send over with other travellers. Books can be dropped at Zethiopia’s office at 11th and U Street, NW.
For more information on the TAKE ONE BOOK campaign, please contact Catie Dupont at catie@ethiopiareads.org or Katie Douglas at katie@ethiopiareads.org.

Как говорилось на Seexi.net Девочки, как вы думаете, можно во время беременности пантовые ванны применять? Вообще-то я давно про них слышала. Мол чудеса творят, хочу испробовать ОЧЕНЬ_ОЧЕНЬ, но жду ребенк
Как говорилось на Seexi.net Всем привет! Вопрос в теме. Я очень боюсь филировки, считаю что от неё волосы через неделю выглядят как сеченые. С филировочными ножницами я к себе близко мастера не подпущу. Но в данный момент парикмахеры говорят: я вам только чуть чуть, прямыми ножницами профилирую. Это что, принципиально различные филировки? Или суть одна? Сама пока не разобралась. Всем спасибо за ответы

Some of these newer super-bright LED light products will light up on voltages ranging from 10 volts DC to 30 volts DC, while others
will run on as little as 8 volts. The bulbs can be bought
