The best way to make cappuccino is to do it yourself. Do not rely on the abilities of a coffee shop or a restaurant chain to create your perfect drink. Shops like Bernie's and the Gourmet Bean will not have the time to make your cappuccino individually because their goal is to stick with one recipe and mass produce it. These chain shops may have a larger variety to offer, but if quality and perfection are what are what you crave, your best bet is to purchase your own cappuccino machine. To begin making cappuccino, you will need three basic components: a cappuccino machine, espresso and milk. First, find the large metal scoop attached to your machine and remove it; this is called the doser

of your behavior was rebelling towards your station in life in my mind. Some of your actions were to protect your friends, the Bedwetters. In some instances, it was heroic. One example was after you and the rest of the boys had stolen that white Chevy truck and had stopped to get some food. Some locals questioned why six "milk drinkers" would be out that late, so you and the rest of the boys left, only to be followed by the locals and almost run off the road. When you stopped, the locals noticed the car you were driving was wired. The locals said that they were going to call the police. You then pulled out the . 22 rifle you had taken from the camp and shot it off, protecting the Bedwetters by scaring off the locals. That judge was not easy on you, probably because you had a record. Well, I hope to see you soon after you get out of jail.Sincerely Yours,Zach Jones

At the opening of the poem, we are introduced to the migrants as " landscape of milk-white flesh". The emotional purgation that the journey initiates for the migrants grants them a greater sense of self and understanding of the world. The title of the work, "Crossing the Red Sea", suggests that the journey that the migrants are making is one of danger yet liberation - just as the Israelites made the perilous journey across the Red Sea to escape slavery, the immigrants are making their journey to leave behind their war-torn country, and to escape persecution and

It may be small but it was significantly more than those that had not drank or ingested THC. Another influence of THC on women is in lactation.

This is used to symbolize the close similarities in the behavior of man and animal, although seemingly worlds apart at first glace. It is a constant switch between Pi's thoughts and Pi's actions that is needed to extend this characterization to the fullest.
