KILLER HURRICANE

Submitted by ub on

Thank God the National Hurricane Center downgraded Hurricane Matthew to a Category 4 late Saturday as the storm weakened slightly.

But as it moved away from the northern coasts of Cuba Colombia and Venezuela, Matthew remained the largest hurricane to sweep Atlantic waters since Felix in 2007, with winds reaching 155 miles per hour.

In Jamaica, where forecasters say it will make landfall by Monday, traffic-congested streets and people stood in long lines at supermarkets as they made preparations.

INTERNATIONAL COFFEE DAY

Submitted by ub on

It's a global celebration, so if you have not enjoyed a cup of coffee today it is time to do it right away. Celebrate International Coffee Day with one of the most buzzed about natural skin care ingredients. You guessed it, coffee.

Your fave morning brew does a lot more than just give you a jolt of energy in the morning, noon or at night.

When applied topically, java delivers a double shot of beautifying benefits. It's chock-full of more free-radical-fighting, skin-protecting, and youth-boosting antioxidants than any other substance on earth.

Coffee's not-so-secret weapon, caffeine, stimulates circulation and perks up complexions. It's also a potent anti-inflammatory, making it super soothing for irritated skin. And the grounds are a great natural exfoliator.

In fact, I am going to share this with the two most beautiful women I know, my daughters Natasha and Sabrina. But please don't tell them... Is a secret from DaD.

This is not only being written around 3 in the morning for a symbolic reason, but it is also dedicated to anyone who may have worked as "Miss Housekeeping," including Trump's mom, Mary Anne Smith Macleod.

When The Donald used the term towards former Miss Universe, Alicia Machado it could have been a racist remark, but it was apparently also extremely dumb and very personal.

I have been told by railroad veterans that the last car on the train is usually the safest.

As someone who has spent thousands of hours commuting on trains in the past year, this news development greatly concerns me. It is alarming, not only because of the loss of life nd the hundreds of injuries but also because of the dangerous conditions commuters face on a daily basis.
