Cultural misunderstandings, crazy and dangerous situations, inter-cultural friendships, love and disappointment and the excitement of exploring. "Crossing Borders" tells the story of living and becoming an adult in a foreign country away from friends and family. This narrative is not a simple travel log of pondering curiosities, it unites the weirdest, most interesting and funniest experiences from twelve years living abroad.
The story starts out with the author's experiences of his first adventure in the heart of Europe-in German speaking Austria. Dreams of going to study at the Viennese Academy of Music go up in smoke when the protagonist fails the entrance exam.
The protagonist not only ends up living in a mountain village in the Alps, but also discovers traits and virtues in his new Austrian friends that he never thought possible.
From almost getting shot in Cairo, having his bride kidnapped on their wedding day, to getting blackmailed by a Moroccan snake charmer, each chapter takes the reader on an extraordinary cultural trip, a book for anyone who likes to travel, whether in their mind or reality.

Benefits of a New Boliy Pro3600SI+ Generator

Boliy Pro3600SI+ (model number matches engine kw output not ac output) is a true Digital Signal Processing (DSP) inverter generator. Honda, Yamaha, and Kipor use the transistor induced technology which simulates the signal processing. With this advanced German made microprocessor, the DSP resulted in a power conversion rate of 20% higher as compared to the inverter generators from Honda, Yamaha, and Kipor.

The voltage/power output is constantly monitored and adjusted to maintain 120VAC by the computer inverter module. Their light weight design makes them ideal for transportation. Boliy digital generators are equipped with the unique smart-throttle, automatically regulating the engine speed according to the load, resulting in a 40% lower fuel consumption than traditional generators.

The Boliy engine is a high quality engine with a special Nikasil (nickel alloy) cylinder coating for durability and efficiency.

Boliy digital inverter generators have a two-tiered noise dampening system, so the noise emitted by these generators is 4 to 8 times quieter than conventional generators. This may meet the new noise ordinances that some state and national parks have adopted.

Let me introduce myself. Hi, my name is Barbara Larsen. I have been active in the pet industry for more than 22 years. In 1986 I graduated from Friendship Academy For Dogs in Washington DC with a Pet Dog Trainer and Kennel Management Certificate. I later worked as an understudy to Robert Vance with American Canine Institute in Mt. View, Ca. There I learned to Train in Canine Personal Protection, SchH, and Advanced Obedience instruction. I also managed his boarding kennel. At a later date I opened My own training and breeding business. Von Weissenberg German Shepherds and Dog Training, in Fremont California. I trained dogs for others and took my own dogs through a series of obedience and conformation titles. During that same period of time I worked as a Veterinary Technician for All About Pets Animal Hospital. When I moved to Las Vegas In 2001 I found a position as a Manager of a pet store chain. I worked with them for a year and a half and decided to move on. I then returned to the Veterinary Technician field, working with Dr. Elena Pederson at Advanced Animal Hospital.

In 2005 My parents opened a pet store here in Las Vegas, making it a family project. My Mother, father, brother and I ran Vegas Paws. I still do the purchasing of puppies for them. Over the years I’ve met some very nice and reputable folks in this industry. I personally took a trip to their homes and kennels to check them out and make sure everything was clean, up to standard with USDA and all the animals were well taken care of. I met a few I wouldn’t use again and a few who were hardworking friendly folk that took the time and care to do it right.

During the last three years we have added two new children to our brood. I Now am the mother of 4 beautiful daughters. Hence, the need for me to be at home more often came about. I started purchasing puppies from some of these folks that I met along my journey and bringing them into my home, having them vet checked, microchipped socialized with my kids and family and selling them here in Las Vegas. I started being refered by happy customers to new customers and the word got out that I had some very nice social well taken care of pups avialable for adoption. I started to advertise on Puppyfind and Nextday Pets and Local websights. This brought about the need to create this websight and business, Luvapuppy.com.

Welcome to my sight. I provide happy healthy puppies to new caring homes. My puppies are kept in a clean healthy environment and get to go outdoors to play for hours every day, thanks to our great Las Vegas weather. I feed outside and try to make sure all do their business outside and not in their indoor facilities to help you with housebreaking. All my puppies come with a free vet visit and a health guarantee along with microchipping , current vaccine records and health certificates if being shipped. I provide you with health tips and training information and am always happy to answer questions that my clients might have regarding training. Please Take a Look and enjoy. If there is anyone you are interested in please shoot me an email with the puppies name and I will be happy to get you a current picture and any information you would like. Thanks Again Barbara Larsen with Luvapuppy.com
