...One wild night Theres a man in her cake.And a stripper at her door.Its all clean fun,protests the bride-to-be.But the shower just got steamier Mansi Choksi | TNN They function like a kind of secret service clients come in and whisper their orders,and when the house is empty,they get down to business.Dodging the judgmental gaze of domestic help and children,these cake ladies fulfill requests for phallic chocolate lollipops and other erotic confections.Cakes at bachelorette parties are no longer just about chocolate,icing and candles.From a naked man on a beach to threedimensional confections that resemble male genitalia and even squirt out cream,brides-to-be in the big cities want their last fling with singledom. The naughty cake market in Mumbai has grown.Five years ago,one sole cakesmith monopolised the scene.Now there are at least nine more in the bakery.Ruchi Chopra,owner of Any Surprise Any Place,says that most of her cakes sport some kind of exaggerated body part and she also serves up interestingly shaped food.For instance,the innocent spring roll gets a whole new meaning. A Matunga-based cake maker says parts of the cake are assembled after her domestic help has left for the day.Although they want kinky confections,some clients find it hard to spell it out.They just ask for those cakes, she says. But those cakes arent the only attraction at bridal showers that have become more than just underground booze-fuelled fiestas of giggles strippers,dirty games and weird gifts...

...Bridal Shower Poem This is a rather peculiar game It really does not have a name It’s simple to play as a game should be You just do as you’re told, you see So now if you’ll please give me your attention We’ll put an end to this suspension In the end, whoever scores the most, Will receive a prize of which to boast Now since you’re all fashionable girls Give yourself 5 if you’re wearing pearls You may add 3 if your toes peek out And earrings will give you 2 more to shout Score yourself 5 if you show any red Add 6 more for a curl on your head Now before you think you are going to win Take away 2 for a purse you brought in Give yourself 6 if your pants are tight Add 1 scarf which is just about right Add 5 more if your shoes are black And take away 3 for your zipper in the back Now count all your buttons, for each you get 2 And take away 1 for each button that’s blue Give yourself 5 if your heels are high And why not take 10 for the green in your eye 10 more points for a rose on your clothes Take away 5 if you forgot to wear hose If your husband you kissed today-add 9 If you didn’t subtract 12-you’re subject to fine This is the end...there isn’t anymore Who is the lucky lady with the highest...

...vacations. We set schedules, make reservations and become slaves to them. I started wishing I were Samoan. Many folks stay home and celebrate Christmas with family and friends, but not me. I am a bachelor who likes to take every opportunity to go places and see new things. I have no family except two sisters – one 500 miles away and the other 3000 miles away. I had a month off from work, and I certainly wasn’t going to waste it hanging around the house and watching myself grow old. I had packed the previous day and partied the previous night, so my things were ready but I was not. It is difficult to overcome the urge to stay in bed and say the heck with plans. I’m not sure why I didn’t. I made my unsteady way into the bathroom where a hot shower put me in a better frame of mind. An hour later my dog Nina and I were in my truck and headed for the stable to get my horse and trailer. Nina and my horse are my immediate family, so I like to take them with me on vacation whenever possible. At the stable a colleague of mine, Pam, was visiting my horse BJ. She watched as I quickly hooked up my trailer and loaded BJ. I made a hasty but polite departure and headed on the first leg of my journey, which was to my sister in Ohio – a 500-mile drive from my home in Eastern Pennsylvania. I had only gone about two miles when I suddenly realized that I had left my wallet and money at home on my dresser. Home was 25-minutes in the wrong...

...The sun inched through the green and ivory curtains and unmasked the layers of dust that floated around the room. It seemed like so many years ago. It was sometime in the summer between the hot months of June and July; the last day of a weeks vacation. I sit, peeling an orange with a knife, so as not to break my just painted red-satin nails, feet propped up on the table, un-shoed and sock-less. I notice the lime-green smoothie mixer that came complimentary with the hotel room. I guess that it had to be from Target and remember that I need to buy a new razor and shampoo and conditioner before we leave. Oh and soap. Definitely need more soap. I didn’t even want to think about soap right now. I want to go now but know that I really shouldn’t leave Katelyn alone despite everything. She is sleeping, I like to remember her that way that morning, sleeping like that. I try never to forget her curls and her eyelashes as I watch her sleeping on the bed; her round Jackie Kennedy sunglasses and my Audrey Hepburn heels that were thrown off the bed from the night before. I want to remember her this way. Before she goes back to her life. Her life without me. Her married life. Her life that began again last night. I try to remember her this way. The moon had deepened the curtains a olive purple as the street lamps lit the way home for the late night drunks. “I knew you wouldn’t stay Katelyn…” I told her, my tears mixed with my black...

...Short Story Every morning I wake up to the normal sun shooting through the window, blinding me as I try to open my eyes. My dog, Percy, licking my face off. He insists that every morning at exactly 7:04, she has to go outside. It really is starting to annoy me. Can’t that damn dog just rest? After I go outside for exactly 3 minutes, I realise I have to deal with my boss in exactly 48 minutes. I sit and moan for two minutes. Any more I would be late and any less I would be early: it has to be exactly two minutes. Afterward, I do my normal six-minute shower, I take another 6 minutes to brush my hair, 4 minutes to brush – just like the dentist told me – and five minutes to figure out what I am going to wear today. That leaves me 4 minutes to sit and read The Daily Telegraph and moan about having to drive 20 minutes to a job that I can’t stand. Once I arrive, it takes 2 minutes to hear the lame story about what Ron, the guy two cubicles down, did last night and four minutes ’til I get to hear my boss complain that I never do anything right. Spending 9 and a half hours at my job, driving 26 minutes home, taking two minutes to take Percy out and only getting 25 minutes to myself before lying down in my hard, cold bed and not falling asleep for another 12 minutes can really drive someone crazy. At least that is what my therapist tells me. But it doesn’t make me crazy; it makes everyone else crazy for not wanting to know how much time they actually have. The thing that...

... GS1140 Installing Copper Pipes Problem: Install copper pipes for a new bathroom to run water to the toilette, sink and shower. 1. Prior to building the bathroom make sure that there is adequate accessibility to run copper pipes to the area where the bathroom will be located. 2. After bathroom is built and the configuration of toilette, sink and shower is complete make either a mental or written pattern of how you will connect the pipes. Remember you have hot and cold water. The sink and shower need both while the toilette needs only cold water. 3. Measure distances between toilette, shower and sink to have a general idea of how much copper pipe you will require. Always get about 10 feet extra just in case of a bad measurement or an adjustment in plan. 4. Drill 3 holes in wall near the toilette and sink to accommodate the shut-off valves: toilette gets 1 and sink gets 2. 5. Attach shut-off valves to 9 inch copper pipe segments and install so that valves are inside bathroom and other end is in the crawl space. 6. Attach copper pipe segments to shower on/off fixture so that the ends are in crawl space. 7. Measure copper pipe so that each segment connects with the corresponding hot or cold water shower on/off fixture or shut off valve. Make sure the ends of the pipe segments are clean with a shine. Use fine grained sand paper. Dry fit these segments only. (Dry fit means that no flux or solder has...

...unknown how long he had been there. Officers responded and found the victim, later identified as Travis Alexander, deceased lying naked in the shower. It was unknown how long Travis had been deceased, but his body was well into the decomposition process. Officers also found large amounts of blood throughout the master bathroom floors, walls, and sink area. The initial injury detected by officers, was a large laceration to Travis' throat, which appeared to be from ear to ear. The friends of the victim told officers, that Travis was scheduled to go on a trip to Cancun, Mexico on Tuesday the 10th of June. Marie Fall said she was going to Mexico with Travis, but she had not been able to get a hold of him over the phone since the week of June 1st. While in the house, they contacted Travis' roommate, Zachary Billings and asked if he had seen Travis. Zachary told them he thought Travis had gone to Mexico and hadn't seen him in several days. They checked Travis' bedroom door and found it locked. They were able to find a key to the bedroom door and opened it only to discover what happened to be blood on the carpet leading into the master bathroom.

...discussed my process in the beginning, I found that the process could take me over an hour if I did not figure out ways to do thing more time effective and with better planning. There are also occurrences that I can not control that could also cause my morning to be frustrating and time consuming making me late for work and other problems as mentioned above. During week, one I noticed there were processes that were taking more time than needed the directed affected my time usage in the morning like showering in the morning. We have four people in our home who get up within 10 minutes of each and each one of us needs to get into the bathroom to shower, brush our teeth and prepare for the day. I feel if everyone was willing to shower in the evening that would shave at least 15 to 20 minutes off of our time, because I shower in the evening then I can wash up quickly in the morning and get dressed as well as my son. I found that another process that I could control is it takes me at least 10 to 15 minutes to fix lunches for my husband, my son, and I in the morning for lunch. I have found that if I fix our lunches at night that would save me more time in the morning to focus on getting my son ready for school. My son is responsible for taking the dogs out for their morning walk and bathroom break as well as feeding them this process can often take thirty...

...Market Sometimes a sanctuary, sometimes a spa and at other times purely functional – a bathroom is the perfect place to unwind, a refuge from the daily grind. Increasingly over the past fifteen years, Indians have begun to look at bathrooms as decompressing zones that also make a lifestyle statement. The demand for bathrooms that combine convenience with functionality and marry luxury with technology is rapidly increasing. Builders and homeowners alike are now realising that a bathroom with a built-in wow factor enhances not only the desirability but also the value of a property. But amazingly, even as late as the 1990s, the bath fittings market was dominated by small manufacturers who focused on functional entry-level products, paying scant regard to design, aesthetics or quality. With the shift in market focus, several players joined the race, slowly pushing out of reckoning manufacturers in the unorganised sector. Such has been the leap in both quality and aesthetics that the organised segment now controls more than 50% of the Rs. 1800 crore (US$ 375 million) market by value year, no-questionsasked warranty, plus after-sales-service at the customer’s doorstep. It was also the first company to introduce four-colour packaging for bathfittings. These not only helped ensure product differentiation, they also reinforced its brand identity. Jaquar Orientation Centres are marketing innovations that provide the consumer (Source: Business Line...

...Hot tubs enhance many homes across America, yet some people remain hesitant to purchase a unit of this type. They recognize a hot tub can be a great way to relax after a hard day at work and spend quality time with friends and family. Others understand these devices can be of great help in reducing pain and discomfort, and some find they sleep better after a session in a hot tub. Many homeowners opt for a stationary hot tub, one that may be set up and left in place permanently. One option to consider, however, is a plug and play unit. Many of these units can now be moved from location to location, depending on the size and water capacity. They tend to be smaller than their stationary counterparts and, again depending on the size and water capacity, may be taken for camping trips or vacations, making them an option everyone should consider. Are you looking to purchase a hot tub, but want one that can go wherever you go? If so, an inflatable hot tub is exactly what you need, as they are lighter than many plug and play units. There are numerous types of hot tubs to select from, yet this style offers numerous other benefits also. This should be factored into the decision making process. Once you determine you want a device of this type, however, you may feel overwhelmed by the choices currently available. How do you go about narrowing down the many options to find the one that is right for you? The Benefits Of Portable Hot Tubs First and foremost, you need to understand the benefits...

...Shower chairs can come in many different shapes and sizes. Shower chairs are very lightweight and can be maneuvered easily. Some chairs come with a back to the chair and side arms that can be taken off easily, while others do not come with a back on the chair. All most all chairs have drain holes in the seat portion of the chair, this allows for the person sitting in the chair not to be sitting in a puddle of water. The chair is made out of hard plastic and has aluminum legs. This makes the chair light weight but sturdy as well.

...Ashley ran up to her room, grabbed her razor from the hiding place in her dresser. She turned to her mirror, stared at her reflection while she whispered " Look at yourself, you're worthless, pathetic, nobody while ever love you, you will forever be alone." She walked towards the bathroom, tightly gripping her razor in a closed fist. Tears ran down her cheeks as she locked the bathroom door and slithered into the bathtub. She rolled up her black sweatshirt that hid her day old scabbed cuts. She ran her fingers up and down the red cuts on her arm, she pressed down and felt the burn of her many slices. She took the razor and ran the cool metal lightly against her skin, testing her skins resistance against the sharp edge of her razor. She closed her eyes as she dug the razor into her skin, to take the pain away. The crimson red blood flowed as she cried, it seeped through her skin and down her arm. As the blood dribbled down it outlined the aging scars, that gave her skin a light tint of red. She bit her lip and cut another line into her pale wrist, right on top of a blue vein, just to find relief from her everyday problems and pain. But, this time she cut too deep, she tried to find too much relief. Blood spewed from her fresh open wound onto her, her clothes, and into the tub. She sat there watching herself bleed, telling herself she deserved this. Thoughts ran through her mind, who is going to find her? Will anyone even miss her or notice she is gone? Probably not Ashley was just...
