However, if you must buy your spouse an appliance (shudder!), then at least make sure it is something he/she will use and not just take up space in a cabinet. Bob knows better than to buy me any appliances as gifts. 1) Kitchen Appliances Whether it is a bread maker, or a rice cooker, or an electric grill, or a mixer, or some other gadget for the kitchen, please be sure it is something your spouse really yearns for. Bob has been yearning for a new fancy mixer. I just can't bring myself to buying it as a gift. 2) Household Appliances This category includes vacuum cleaners, sewing machines, heaters, air purifiers, air conditioners, irons, ceiling fans, washers, dryers, dishwashers, and humidifiers. Nothing sounds romantic to me at all. 3) Hair Appliances Another category that has no romance to it at all. Think twice about this one. 4) Bath Spa Now this one has some romantic possibilities! Don't forget a nice bubble bath or luxurious soap to go with it. Important product disclaimer information about this About site.

One morning when former grade-seven teacher Jim Blomfield entered his classroom in Kitchener, Ont., he found it reeking of alcohol. A student clutching a dripping gym bag said: “I brought a bottle of wine for you, sir, but it broke.” Blomfield’s pupil learned first-hand how difficult it is to find the perfect present for a teacher. Of course, teachers don’t expect gifts, but many of us want to acknowledge their hard work. So Today’s Parent asked teachers what tokens they really love receiving. As the end of the school year fast approaches, here’s how to avoid making a gift gaffe: Homemade and Homegrown Foodie teachers relish home-baked and freezable goodies such as banana bread . Others are not as enthusiastic. Says one educator, “It depends on whose clean hands do the baking!” Alternatively, your child can make a date with the teacher and bring in a basket lunch. Try make-your-own sandwiches — pack deli-sliced cheeses and meats, crusty rolls, fresh fruit and juice . Teachers with green thumbs also appreciate the personal touch. “One year I received a potentilla plant from a student,” says grade-five/six teacher Mike Anderson of Fergus, Ont. “I was really impressed that she had remembered I was starting a new garden.” Gourmet goodie. Little chefs love to scoop, pour and measure out the ingredients for this attractive and healthy gift. Buy a 2 cup (500 mL) Mason or screw-top jar. Add ½ cup (100 mL) small pasta, like shells or fusilli. Using a funnel (or a rolled-up cone of paper), pour in ¼ cup (50 mL) each of green split peas, yellow split peas, red lentils and barley — in that order. Let your child pat each layer gently with a gloved hand to flatten. In a small sandwich bag, place two vegetable bouillon cubes, 2 tbsp (30 mL) each of parsley flakes and dried onion flakes, ½ tsp (2 mL) each of thyme and pepper. Screw the lid on the jar and decorate both with stickers and indelible markers. Place in a basket along with the sandwich bag and a 28 oz (793 g) can of diced tomatoes. Write or type instructions on a small card: “In a large soup pot, combine contents of jar (except for pasta), can of diced tomatoes and 7 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to simmer. Add contents of spice bag. Continue simmering for about 1 hour and when there’s about a half-hour to go, add pasta. Enjoy!” Punch a hole in the card, thread a ribbon through and tie it around the lid of the jar.

Continued from Previous Page Smokes and Spirits If your golfer likes to take a nip on the links - something we don't recommend, but realize many golfers do - this Pewter Embellished Golf Hip Flask ($24.95 at TGW.com) might be the thing. Many golfers like to fire up a stogey on the course. If your golfer is one of those, take a look at these Cigar Pounches & Cutters ($15, various merchants). They'll keep the cigars fresh (and in one piece) until ready for lighting. If your golfer's kitchen is already gaudy, a little more gaudiness won't hurt. So check out the Golf Club Wine Rack ($69.95 at TGW.com). And take a look at these golf-themed Gift Baskets . Organizers & Travel Bags The Golf Organizer with Bench ($119 through Amazon.com) provides storage space for two bags and shoes, plus accessories, with a small bench in the middle. A less expensive model ($59.99), sans bench, is available at Sears. In a similar vein, the Top Flite Golf Trunk Locker ($39.99 at Target) goes in the trunk of the car and carries shoes, hats, jackets, balls, tees and more. For golfers who do a lot of flying, a Golf Travel Bag is a must. If your travelling golfer doesn't have one, they probably could use one. Practice Aids Practice aids and training aids are a dime a dozen (OK, they're actually quite a bit more expensive than a dime a dozen, but we just mean they are ubiquitous). But here are two items that are cheap but sure to be put to good use. AlmostGolf Balls are practice balls that mimic the flight of real golf balls - but are made from a foam material so as to be safe for use around buildings (think backyard practice). They are much more useful than wiffle balls. For a cheap training aid that, used correctly, will be more useful than 95-percent of the gadgets out there, try the On Mark Game Improvement in a Can ($8.95 at TGW.com). It sprays a yellow dye onto the golf clubface so that golfers can track - and work on improving - their points of contact.

Boehlert, who turns 68 today, is recovering from successful triple coronary bypass surgery performed at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda. file photo Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (R-N.Y.) is recovering from heart surgery. Dr. Joshua Yamamoto, a cardiologist at the Bethesda hospital, used an apt metaphor to describe the operation performed on the congressman whose district includes Baseball’s Hall of Fame. “This type of surgery is a fastball down the middle of the plate in American medicine,” Yamamoto said before Boehlert’s operation. “Following surgery, he will be stronger than ever as he recovers over the next few weeks.” Boehlert entered the hospital Thursday after heart abnormalities were discovered during an EKG test conducted by the House’s Attending Physician’s Office. Cardiac angioplasty tests at Bethesda confirmed blockage in several arteries. Boehlert’s wife, Marianne, traveled from their home in New Hartford to be with her husband. “Sherm’s heart is strong. He is resting comfortably and looking forward to getting back to work,” she said. My favorite gun: Sen. Kerry’s souvenir from Vietnam The current issue of Outdoor Life magazine asks President Bush and Sen. John Kerry what their favorite gun is. President Bush gives a stock answer of a custom-made Weatherby Athena 20-gauge. But Kerry’s answer gets a bit more interesting. “My favorite gun is the M-16 that saved my life and that of my crew in Vietnam,” he replies. “I don’t own one of those now, but one of my reminders of my service is a Communist Chinese assault rifle.” Hmm, wouldn’t such a gun be outlawed by the assault weapons ban favored by Kerry and Democrats in Congress? Yes, said Chris Cox of the National Rifle Association. “If it’s fully automatic, it’s illegal; if it’s semiautomatic, it’s illegal,” he said. Cox also told The Hill that under Massachusetts law, “private transfers are banned,” including gifts. But not so fast. The Associated Press and The New York Times reported yesterday that a Kerry spokesman said the gun is a single-bolt rifle, not an assault rifle. Cox ridiculed Kerry’s backtracking. “John Kerry is the only man in America who wears blaze orange as camouflage,” he said. “He’s either foolish, a felon or can’t get his facts straight.” The offices of Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), two of the main supporters of renewing the assault weapons ban, did not return calls seeking comment. Grooming poll: Thinner brows have it Well, this settles it. The good folks at The Grooming Lounge have informed us that Sen. John Kerry is about to go the way of his fellow Massachusetts pol, former Gov. Michael Dukakis, based on nothing more than his eyebrows. “Bushier-browed candidates have lost the popular vote in the last four presidential elections,” according to a release by the upscale men’s barbershop and spa. In fact, The Grooming Lounge is conducting a poll on its website to gauge visitors’ thoughts on the candidates’ primping habits. So far, 92 percent of respondents say Kerry has the most pronounced “eyebrows of mass destruction” of the two candidates. “In order to prevent history from repeating itself, we believe Kerry needs to have his eyebrows groomed,” said Mike Gilman, co-founder of The Grooming Lounge. “We would recommend waxing or trimming them to reduce the furriness and give Kerry a better shot at winning over the public.” In other results, 76 percent of respondents said George W. Bush has better hair than Kerry. But 64 percent think Kerry spends more time in front of the mirror in the morning than Bush. Perhaps that’s because 91 percent believe Kerry is more likely to be “stockpiling” nose-hair trimmers in his medicine cabinet. “From the grooming perspective, it appears voters are hedging a bit toward our current president,” said Gilman. We just hope the best-groomed man wins.” The survey continues through October. Why you don’t want to write to Bill Frist If his constituents want to tell Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist about their concerns, they’d better think twice before writing him a letter. The Tennessee Republican’s website warns that security restrictions put into effect in the wake of Sept. 11 and the 2001 anthrax attacks will “cause considerable delay in processing postal mail” sent to his offices. That’s an understatement. Mail addressed to his D.C. office is first sent to a processing unit in Virginia, which takes two to four days, then forwarded to Lima, Ohio, for irradiation procedures, which take 10-14 days, before being forward to another processing unit, where all non-paper contents are removed and tested. That takes between seven and 10 days for the test results, and, if the mail clears the final security hurdle, it is then delivered to Frist’s D.C. office. Since it can take up to four weeks for mail to reach Frist, his constituents may be better advised to make the drive from New Smyrna or Nashville and hand-deliver their letters. Better yet, they can e-mail him by filling out a form on his website www.frist.senate.gov or fax (202) 228-1264. Sperling, Bradlee covered Nixon-JFK debate Godfrey Sperling Jr., the former Christian Science Monitor bureau chief whose newsmaker breakfasts for print reporters have become a Washington institution since he hosted the first one with Robert F. Kennedy in 1966, will be watching this week’s first presidential debate with interest. Sperling, who turned 89 last week, will no doubt be comparing it with the very first televised debate, held between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy in Chicago in 1960, which he covered, along with a young Newsweek reporter named Ben Bradlee. Asked what he wrote about the debate, Bradlee, the former executive editor of The Washington Post and now a Post Co. vice president, said, “That was 44 years ago. I don’t remember. Just put it down as brilliant reporting.” Sperling, who hosted more than 3,000 sessions with newsmakers before turning over the job last year to his successor, David Cook, turned up for breakfast with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) last Friday. He had just returned from Springfield, Ill., where his alma mater, the University of Illinois, honored him by establishing the Christian Science Monitor Sperling Fellowship for journalism graduate students. The university library is also preserving the tape recordings of more than 2,000 of Sperling’s sessions with newsmakers. Don’t forget to bring your rotten tomatoes Reps. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.), Charlie Gonzalez (D-Texas.), Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) headline a Debate-Eve Comedy Show at the D.C. Improv on Connecticut Avenue tomorrow night. The pols are on the bill along with Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform and the Rev. Barry Lynn of Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Doors open at 7; show starts at 8. Admission is free; drinks are not. Send e-mail to thehotlineshows@comic.com to get on the guest list. “Under the Dome” (the Albert Eisele half of it anyway) will be doing introductions. David Rubenstein gives $10 million to Harvard The private sector obviously has been very good to former White House aide David Rubenstein, who last week donated $10 million to the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard. Rubenstein was a domestic policy assistant to President Carter before he co-founded the multibillion-dollar investment firm the Carlyle Group. Rubenstein’s largess had its genesis in a meeting with Harvard President Larry Summers during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in January. One million dollars of Rubenstein’s gift will be used forgive the loans of students who enter public service, while the rest will be used to to recruit new faculty, organize academic conferences and fund a new award for international scholars.
