So happy to have met Mikey Rioux, and Heather Perry, of The MakeSpace. They recently took this Harrisburg art building over, and are currently raising funds for this great endeavor. The building has three floors, with first being reserved for art shows (group shows, one-person shows, happening bimonthly), and concerts (about three per month). The other two floors offer artist studios; two of them are occupied, and there are four openings. If you're planning on visiting Harrisburg in the near future, we think you should make plans to coordinate.
It was fun talking to these individuals, and learning a little bit about where they come come from. Especially discovering a new musician. Perry, a Chicago transplant, pays bills by teaching piano, and will soon be releasing an EP (band name is being created) from collaboration with musician who remains in Chicago. She plays bass and keyboards, wears a Metric t-shirt, and we share interest in CSS (Cansei de Ser Sexy) - the charming sound of Lovefoxx's Spanish accent. Perry hopes her French will be liked in a similar way (the vegan guitar strap in photograph will help)
The Harrisburg-Lancaster connection continues. BohoZone currently has paintings by r76, and has hosted Grant Goldsworthy, Royale Blue, and Rivers in past mini-concerts. The MakeSpace Music Festival will take place at HMAC (Midtown Arts Center), from 2PM-12AM, on 10/1 (a Saturday). Some bands that I recognized: Shawan And The Wonton, Rivers, and Lower Dens. Tickets are $20, and all proceeds benefit this great gallery. There's also a nearby black-box theater called The Field, with some interesting things going on, I think.
Interested in writing for our blog, being featured as a painter, or musician? We have openings.

I think I'm drawn to song lyrics because, if they're good, they state the truth about some human situation in a way that would sound awkward if you said it in conversation with another person. The music adds a ethereal element to the content, which makes it possible to absorb the words' intent more easily.
If a friend told me she was sad, I might say that I'm always there for her, and she can call me anytime, but I would never word it the way Carole King does in her song, "You've Got a Friend." It would sound stilted if spoken without music.
At some point today, my emotions kind of went haywire and I felt pretty down. Oddly, it was in response to some relief about something I'd learned I no longer needed to be concerned about.
Anyway, my first instinct was to call a friend or my husband, simply to hear somebody else's voice, as that will sometimes do the trick and pull me out of my own head. I called my husband but I guess the emotions ran deeper than I thought. The telephone chat left me feeling even lower.
Immediately the lyrics of that Carole King song entered my consciousness and I searched for it on Youtube. As I listened to it, I cried until I was done, and then, I listened. The sadness hadn't disappeared completely, but it had mellowed enough for me to feel comfortable talking about it, at least a little bit.
Luckily for me (maybe not for him), my husband stopped by the house to change clothes a moment or so after I'd reached this point. So, I told him a little of what I was feeling and we went for a walk before I released him and let him go back to work.
Now, an hour or so later, I'm back to normal.
We all go through our ups and downs and often we do not have the benefit of somebody to talk or cry to at our moment of need. Or we aren't ready to share with somebody else.
For me, music often serves as a buffer. It gives me the space to release some of my pain without having to explain myself before I'm ready. I wonder if others, who are more social than I am or who don't like to be alone, get the same benefits that I do from closing my eyes and listening to a song.
If you are someone who does not get these benefits and you can't reach another person, what do you do to calm yourself down?

Plutonium shipments cross France every 7-10 days.
A single bullet kills the driver. Two surviving Gendarmes are
killed trying to get their armour and weapons out of the back of
one of the crushed vehicles, while the terrorists slice through the
rear door bolts of the truck. They place a kilogram of C-4 on each
of the 9 flasks of deadly plutonium powder in the truck. Then they
detonate both fuel and plutonium, setting off a panic evacuation of
Paris. The attack takes 12 minutes. The deaths and economic impact
will continue for years.
George Bush claimed that Al Qaeda had blueprints of US nuclear
power plants in caves in Afghanistan.
Greenpeace first revealed that this was yet another State of
the Union falsehood by the US President. But there was a truth
buried in that lie: it would be hard to find better targets for
terrorists today than nuclear power plants and plutonium
In Germany, a leaked
Government report has surfaced which concludes that none of
Germany's nuclear reactors would withstand the impact of a
World-Trade-Centre style attack. As a consequence of the report the
Head of the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection has
called on reactor operators in Germany to close down the five most
vulnerable reactors.
The findings confirm research
commissioned by Greenpeace in Germany in the immediate wake of
the attacks on the World Trade Centre.
France, Greenpeace has released chilling details of a far easier
and equally deadly terror target: routine, predictable shipments of
plutonium, the equivalent of 40 Hiroshima bombs per convoy, that
cross France every week to ten days.
The report, by Large and Associates, evaluates several
scenarios, including road collisions, tunnel fires, and terrorist
attacks, which might accidentally or intentionally release
plutonium fuel (termed mixed oxide fuel, or MOX) into the
atmosphere. The report models resulting plumes from two sites, one
outside Paris and one outside Lyon.
Easy targets
has been tracking and exposing MOX shipment routes for years. The
highly predictable schedule of these shipments, and their tendency
to travel close to major population centres, make them easy
targets. Here's a
roadside video shot recently by a Greenpeace volunteer who knew
when and where the shipment would pass.
In the US, MOX fuel is transported in a specially designed
armoured vehicle providing thermal protection to the inner contents
of the cargo hold, and which is equipped with communications,
radiological monitoring and other devices that physically prevent
removal of the consignments, including immobilising foam to
overwhelm an attacker. Each truck is limited to 3 flasks of
In comparison, the French-sourced consignments are transported
in what appears to be a standard ISO container fitted to a
commercial articulated vehicle carrying up to 10 flasks of
plutonium. The space occupied by the flask frame in the container
suggests it is unlikely to have any devices installed to prevent
their physical removal.
Devastating results
Beyond the immediate deaths from the hypothetical attack, the
Large report estimates that 11,000 people -- more than three times
the death toll of the attack on the World Trade Centre -- would die
of long-term effects from radiation exposure.
An attack could require a 110 km (68 mile) sheltering distance.
For comparison, the Eiffel tower is only 15 km (9 miles) from where
the transports pass every week.
The Large report recommends a full study of the wider social and
economic impacts of a plutonium attack or accident. It would be
likely that in the wake of any nuclear contamination of the region,
tourism to Paris and Disneyland would collapse. A vast number of
France's agricultural products, including French wine, would be
banned from export. The radioactive plume could drift over Belgium,
the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany.
The report does not predict deaths or injuries from a panic
evacuation of Paris, but a French Government report from the
Director of Nuclear Safety, Andre Lacoste, admits that no strategy
exists to deal with nuclear incidents -- either accidental or as a
result of terrorist attack.
Unnecessary risk
Now, imagine a scenario in which a terrorist attempted to attack
a windmill. Or a solar farm. Or a wave power station.
A new Greenpeace
report, Sea Wind Europe demonstrates that offshore wind power
alone could provide Europe with one third of its electricity needs.
The International Energy Agency last year published
a report demonstrating that with energy efficiency in
households alone the equivalent energy output of 40 large nuclear
power plants could be saved. With the immediate closure of the most
dangerous reactors, the market for clean energy will be boosted,
generating more jobs and more security. Greenpeace is calling on
European countries to take a lead in promoting renewable energy
development by declaring a minimum target of 20 percent by 2020 at
the upcoming intergovernmental conference on Renewables to be held
in Bonn in June.

No More Waiting (2003) is a collection of mostly upbeat alternative songs that hint of 90's Gin Blossoms, Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty.
With the exception of Forty Winks, Sorry and Far Away, No More Waiting was recorded in a super cramped 6 foot by 12 foot studio with a furnace right in the next room. A door helped, but during recording sessions I would just turn the heat off and put a sweater on.
The project was mastered on a pair of cheap headphones during lunch breaks at work. I guess I'm lucky it turned out as okay as it did. I played the mastered tracks through various speakers, and in the car, just to make sure it sounded decent in a wide variety of listening experiences. If anything sounded off I'd go back and tweak it.
The songs were written over the course of a few years while I was gigging around northern New Jersey in a two-man band with friend and keyboardist/saxophonist John Frawley. We played a lot of Tom Petty, Bob Seger, Matchbox Twenty, Pink Floyd and even Rush, so many of those styles shaped the sound of my music on this project. Not that my music sounds anything like Floyd or Rush, but those bands inspired many moments in my songs.
Far Away had been recorded much earlier, in '92 or '93, at a friends' basement studio, for inclusion on a compilation of local Northern New Jersey bands called Local Color which someone has for sale at Amazon for $70. It is rare I guess. I still have a cassette version lying around in a box somewhere.
Portions of the vocals for Sorry were recorded at a friends house, a small place tucked into the hillside of a little lake community in Sussex County. Can't believe we actually got such decent takes, so I kept portions of them because they sounded "right."
Forty Winks, which is the first and so far only song I've recorded that includes talk box, was recorded and mixed on a Fostex FD-8 hard disk recorder in a small apartment in Butler, NJ. Had to record on weekends when I knew the people downstairs were out for the day.
All instruments were performed or programmed by myself, except Sorry which featured piano by John Frawley, and So Right which included a guitar performance by Jay Baney.
Guitar effects processing was done through a Digitech GSP21 which then ran into the audio interface. All recording was done on a PC computer running Cakewalk Pro Audio 9. Bass guitar was borrowed from John F. and ran direct, all drum sequencing was done on a Roland XP-80 keyboard workstation, which was the keyboard John used live during our gigs.

Effective leaders inspire their employees, drive growth, increase productivity and add value to a company. None of these are epiphanies, in fact, they're just a reiteration of the same things you've always heard. What's often lacking from this description of effective leadership are the behaviors that are needed to become an effective leader. In a recent study performed by McKinsey & Company, a leading global management consulting firm, it was revealed that there are four key behaviors that effective leaders engage in.
Massive Leadership Study:
What Really Matters in Leadership?
After first researching and developing a list of 20 distinct leadership traits, they surveyed nearly 200,000 people in more than 80 organizations around the globe. The objective was to discover which behaviors were most often applied within organizations. What they found were four distinct behaviors that account for 89% of leadership effectiveness.
Leaders Have Effective Problem Solving Skills
One of the most important skills any leader can possess is the ability to solve problems effectively. Information gathering, analysis, and careful consideration of the steps to be taken are imperative. Although it seems like a simple process, it's actually more difficult than one might think. Problems, to an effective leader are simply challenges that must be overcome. What's more, those with honed problem solving skills are more apt to make decisions that are beneficial to the organization and its stakeholders.
Leaders Drive Results
Every organization needs to set goals to work toward. Whether that's increasing production, improving customer service or expanding into new territories. However, goal setting is only one part of the equation. Without follow through, goals are meaningless. Therefore, effective leaders drive results by focusing on the work with the highest value in terms of accomplishing goals. Strong results orientation puts a significant emphasis on improving efficiency and productivity, without sacrificing quality.
Leaders Accept Input
A single individual cannot possibly see everything from every angle, they can only see things from their own perspective. Leaders who realize this are more likely to not just allow, but encourage input from sources outside of themselves. Whether information is being obtained from others in the industry, environmental groups, employees or shareholders, the input is welcomed. That said, it is vitally important that leaders base their ultimate decisions on a combination of this input and thorough analysis of the situation.
Leaders Show Support
Supportive leaders are empathetic, encouraging and willing to take charge of situations when needed, but still allowing autonomy. Effective leaders show a true interest in others, which builds a trusting relationship. They are also able to inspire employees and offer encouragement to overcome challenges and to become more efficient. This type of nurturing environment helps eliminate conflicts, alleviates fears and draws teams closer together so everyone becomes more successful.
Effective leadership, is by no means, solely driven by the attributes mentioned above, however, these four traits are most common in the best leaders. If you want to learn more about effective leadership, or you want to discuss anything else, please contact us. We appreciate your input.

All about Aries Women
God's Child

Sun sign
woman: March
A shooting star leaving a trail of blaze on the inky blue sky… liken this scene with an Aries woman and you will know what a true fire sign is. Just like her male counterpart, an Aries woman shows sparks of vigour and strength of character. Although aggression figures in largely in her attitude, there are Aries women who are more placid too. But both the kinds are like a shining star, unrivaled in its glory and complete in its own radiance.
Extremely conscious of her self, the Aries female is fearless, strong and egocentric. To her the world revolves around her. What she does or thinks is of utmost importance… while others are neglected or sidelined in the bargain.
She takes the term 'extreme' to her heart. She loves in extremes, she hates in extremes and generally lives life on the extreme. If she loves you, you will be the core of her existence, but if she dislikes you… nah! There's no word like dislike for her… its simple hatred. That's what I call living life in black and white!
How to identify an Aries woman in a crowd?
With a body language that bespeaks boldness, the Aries girl will talk with authority and look at you in the eye with unabashed confidence. Not one to mince words, it is easy to spot her in a social setup as she will be the one most vocal with her opinions. She will give you her undivided attention… but only so long as your conversation interests her. the minute she finds it boring, she will start looking around with impatience.
Another give away of the Aries female is her 'do-it-myself' stance. She will rush to get her own drink, pull up her own chair and carry her own bags without much ado. But that's not saying that she won't expect men around her to behave in a gentlemanly fashion. It's just that she is too independent to seek assistance, especially from men.
How is her appearance?
An Aries woman has sharp arresting features and a strong jaw line. You will usually see her making a statement with her attire. She is fond of dressing well and likes people to notice her style, but no flashy clothes will do for her, her sense of style is very subtle yet effective. With making a statement I don't mean she will always be dressed to kill, but whatever she wears will have a certain swagger to it.
What are her most striking characteristics?
With the sensational election of Barack Obama as the President of USA, America's first ever woman president doesn't seem an impossible dream. And I am sure there are a lot many female Arians aspiring to step into the White House. With a persistent urge to lead and be numero uno in everything, an Aries woman comes with a natural knack of leadership.
She is full of energy and vitality, which also makes her restless. She is constantly on a lookout for new enterprises to utilize her energy. With never a moment to spare she is on a whirlwind mission to complete tasks within the standards she has set for herself. Her aspirations are always high and she usually lands up expecting as much out of others as she does from her own self.
Is there more to her personality?
Of course there is! I have come across Aries women that are highly focused on all fronts. At work they outshine others with their ambitious and competitive spirit. In the role of a home maker, you will find them competent at just about anything, from cleaning herself or overseeing/supervising the cleaning the house to cooking and from doing the dishes to taking care of the family and pets. She likes to be in CONTROL!
She also wants and yearns to be independent. Financial dependency leads to frustration in an Aries woman. She likes to do things her own way, including money matters. Apart from earning money, she is also enamored by the fame attached to a work well done. Like in everything else, she is an early bird at earning a living as well. Don't be surprised if you see her doing odd jobs to earn those extra bucks.
What's on her flip side?
Lots! The very traits that set her apart when taken to the extreme can turn darker. For instance, her aggression often borders on crudeness while her ambition can make her seem heartless. Her low grace quotient, which is a by-product of her 'throw it in your face' attitude, can make her an eyesore in company.
Once she flips her lid, it's difficult for her to stop. Her verbal barrages can drive people away, leaving her with her foot in her mouth. She also finds it hard to take criticism. Criticizing her is a sure shot way of sending that lid up the roof!
How is she when in love?
Before we go further on this front, let me clarify that Aries women are extremely practical. Although they love the very concept of love, their approach is overruled with practicality. After she has covered the grounds for education and career, her next priority is to find a compatible companion. And this search is likely to begin very early in life.
Being experimental and flirtatious, she goes through learning curves as she matures to understand what she wants and what she doesn't. Unlike the other two fire signs, an Aries woman can cleverly hide her desires and wants of material things. While she can stand by her companion through hardships and struggles, she would make sure she is not out wasting her time with a loser.
Romance is the core of her belief system. So much so that she is fully satisfied with the idea of a complete romance rather than the actual romance itself.
When dating her youshould…
… get used to her dominant nature. That's a pre-requisite! She won't leave anything to you or chance. She will supervise everything and a date with her will be a complete foolproof deal. A few meetings down the lane and she is likely to pop in before a date to check what clothes you are planning to wear to meet her.
The Aries woman likes to take the lead in everything, dating being no exception. Don't be surprised if she asks you out first. Although she has a dominating persona, she isn't masculine or tomboyish. You will find her feminine in many subtle ways.
She loves the thrill and adventure, not to mention the risk,of dangerous stuff. Dare her to a task and you will see the best in her. Since she likes challenges, it isn't a bad idea to invite her to a friendly game of go-carting. Although with her strong competitive streak, no game is ever going to be friendly.
Compatibility quotient:
They say one must fight fire with fire. I don't know how true that is technically but amongst zodiac signs too much of fire can result in explosions. The fiery nature of the Aries girl needs a match that's cool and down to earth and yet one that has traits to equal her passionate nature. Compatibility with an Aries female is much more than a play of fire and ice.
Aries woman and…
Aries man: 3.5/10. There's too much of fire in between these two for a long term relationship to work out. With ego, dominating nature, temper and impatience in both, it is an unlikely match.
Taurus man: 6.5/10. This combination can work only if both are ready for compromises. She will have to curb her extrovertish nature and unruly tongue, while he will have to learn to give her space. Money can be a bone of contention between these too as the Taurean is extremely cautious with it, while the Arian is extravagant.
Gemini man: 9/10. Here's a good one. Both are highly charged individuals. The Gemini man is intelligent enough to accept the free spirit of the Arian. She will be instantly floored with his charm and romantic nature.
Cancer man: 7/10. This relationship can work out in a long run if both are able to check their obstinacy. The Aries girl will have to understand his moodiness and sedentary nature while the Cancer guy will have to respect her spirited and outgoing nature.
Leo man: 8/10. Great chemistry here! The Leo man has as much confidence and masculinity as required to impress the Arian girl. She is capable of taking care of his emotional needs and weak ego, while he is capable of giving her the luxuries of life.
Virgo man: 7/10. This match can go a long way in spite of the inherent differences. The Aries woman should learn to get used to his cautious and organized nature and also to keep her adventurous streak under check.
Libra man: 7/10. Again a good match in spite of the differences. The Arian will have to exercise the last ounce of her patience to deal with the indecisiveness of the Libran man. But he is quite capable of taking care of her and his idea of romance is also likely to suit him to a tee.
Scorpio man: 6/10. The differences here are rather strong. The Scorpio man will not like her dominating nature while the Arian girl will not take his possessiveness too well. Although they will admire each other for some traits, it would take too much hard work from both ends to make this relationship last in the long run.
Sagittarius man: 9/10: A match well made! Both are attuned to each other's personality traits. Both are impulsive and adventure-loving. He has a good humour to keep her interested and she has spontaneity to keep him impressed. The Arian may have to guard her tongue now and then, but apart from that they make a compatible pair.
Capricorn man: 7/10: Capricorn man and Aries woman are poles apart but oppoites do attact. She is vivacious while he could be somber; she is expressive while he is not sometimes. But patience and tolerance can do wonders to this relationship.
Aquarius man: 8/10: The Aquarius man is unconventional enough to suit the Arian taste. Her sharp and astute mind will prove to be a turn on for him. With little bit of understanding about each other's temperament and need for space, they can hit it off superbly.
Pisces man: 7/10: Although both are emotional, their emotional needs are quite different. Her aggressiveness might hurt the sensitive Piscean nature. She will like his mystic mind and with her intelligence can help him find his way in this materialistic world.

Nurses lead more than 100 completed, continuing research studies at Cedars-Sinai
When acute care nurse practitioner Bernice Coleman, PhD, RN, discovered that her African-American heart transplant patients had lower survival rates than her Caucasian patients, she decided to find out why.
The first nurse accepted into Cedars-Sinai's Clinical Scholars Program, Coleman, in her laboratory research, uncovered genetic differences among African-Americans and Caucasians that are linked to the discrepancy in survival rates between the two ethnic groups.
"People used to say that African-Americans have lower survival rates because they are uneducated, don't take their meds, don't show up to clinics, don't have access to care or don't see the doctor," says Coleman, shown above. "This research shows there are genetic differences in these two groups and may well begin to answer the survival question."
Coleman, who was instrumental in establishing Cedars-Sinai's ventricular assistance device program for people who are not heart transplant candidates, joins a growing group of nurses at Cedars-Sinai who are conducting groundbreaking medical research and bringing these innovations to the patient bedside. More than 100 research projects led by nurses have been completed or are ongoing at the medical center, including investigations of ways to reduce surgical site infections, prevent patient falls and improve pain management.
Margo B. Minissian, MSN, RN, a cardiology nurse practitioner in the Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, has conducted numerous research studies in heart disease and has been published in such medical journals as Circulation. Most recently, Minissian, shown at right, was awarded pilot funding from the Foundation of the National Lipid Association for her "Do Women with Statin-Induced Myalgias Have Low Vitamin D Levels?" study. She presented this abstract as a poster at the American College of Cardiology last March.
Nurses like Coleman and Minissian manage to balance their passion for patient care with a deep interest in science. While maintaining their busy workload as full-time nurses, they still find time to devote to their laboratory studies.
"Nurses will always find time to conduct explorations that improve patient care. How could we not? Our entire practice is about improving the patient's experience," says Coleman.
After beginning her career as a nurse's aide in Connecticut, Coleman received her master's degree from Yale Nursing School before she came to Cedars-Sinai in 1987 to work as a clinical nurse specialist in cardiac surgery. She earned a doctorate from UCLA's School of Nursing in 1999, and is now a research scientist in the Division of Nursing and nurse practitioner in Cedars-Sinai's heart transplant and ventricular assistance device programs.
In 2009, the GE Healthcare and American Association of Critical Care Nurses awarded her the Pioneering Spirit Award for her work as a nurse, a researcher and a mentor to other nurses, a role she says she cherishes. Despite her many academic and professional achievements, Coleman remains focused on what she describes as the heart of the nursing profession.
"As we care for patients, we are really caring for families," Coleman says. "Our goal is to deliver their loved ones back to those families."
Cedars-Sinai nursing research studies
Cedars-Sinai nurse scientists and nurses are serving as principal investigators in a number of independent research studies at the medical center in collaboration with other scientists. Following is just a small sampling of their studies that have been recently completed or are still ongoing:

Eventually, every quilter comes to the realization that the Stash has become a living thing, and worse - that the monster lying in wait under the bed and behind closet doors (every closet you have) is one of your own making. It no longer requires regular feedings of fat quarters or patterns, but continues to grow on its own despite your feeble attempts to address the obsession.
Whatever it's beginnings, the stash deserves a permanent home - not one of boxes and bins stuffed into every spare corner of my home. I now spend more time looking for things and moving boxes than sewing. Sigh. The time has come for a trip to IKEA.
The new IKEA catalogue arrived last week and I leafed through it with avid hunger. Do you find it as frighteningly compelling as I do? One gets the feeling, looking at their tidy display pictures, that Europeans all live in homes the size of a studio apartment in New York City. No one would dare suggest I have too much stuff if I could only make the excess fit tidily into the available space of my apartment. I would just be one of those people who lives in a smallish home. So I did it. I bought this great wardrobe system, with baskets, convinced that my stash would fit in it.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha - wheeze - cough - snort - ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I know, at first glance the stash of yardage doesn't look excessive, but the wardrobe is deep.... each drawer actually holds three stacks of carefully folded yardage.
So I filled the wardrobe. That left a "few" items to find a home for. The notions and tools.
The strips, scraps, strings, kits, UFOs, and various block components in progress - half of which I managed to fit into plastic bins under the work table. So much for that plan. That's okay, I'd rather sew on the kitchen table near the windows anyway. There's better light there.
And then those two old bins I dug out of my closet... I didn't remember them being this full! I can't snap the lids down. Sheeeshhhh!
And the boxes... This is how I used to organize. It worked just fine for the first year and then it never really worked right thereafter. A box for every project, a box for scraps - this eventually grew into a box for every size of strip and more scraps. And the projects on the go multiplied. It is now totally and completely insane. At least I'm down to a dozen boxes. I started this reorganization with three dozen boxes, plus the various plastic bins.
And then, of course, the books, patterns, and computer print outs... But I never thought I would fit those into the wardrobe. That's what the bookcase is for, right?
So far I'm quite cheerful about this reorganization. Want to see what I do with the rest? Want to see what's in the boxes? Come back tomorrow and I'll give you a peek....

2002 Lincoln Town Car Overview
The most sophisticated of the three full-sized sedans built on the Ford Crown Victoria platform (the other being the Mercury Grand Marquis) continued to be popular in 2002 with older Americans as well as livery professionals. It proved that a market remained for a six-passenger luxury car with rear-wheel drive.
With a redesign coming in 2003, there were no outward changes to the 2002 Town Cars per se, althoug some minor trim upgrades (the Signature trim received a maple steering wheel, and all trims got a CD changer as standard) were made and additional options (the VCS, an integrated communications system) were made available. But new trims were added for 2002 and one, the extended-wheelbase Executive L was discontinued.
The trim lineup became thus: the base model Executive, which was sold as a fleet vehicle, followed by the Signature, the Signature Touring, the Premium, the Premium Touring, the Cartier, the Cartier Premium, and the extra-long Cartier L. The 4.6-liter V8 engine, which was upgraded in the previous model year, remained unchanged, yielding 220 horsepower at its basic level and 235 with the upgraded components on certain trims; a dual exhaust also came on these enhanced-performance versions.
Paired with a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, the 2002 Lincoln Town Car was rated across the board at 17 mpg city and 24 on the highway. The highway is of course where this cushy mode of transport was at home, gliding cloudlike on its airy suspension. When asked to take on curves and tight turns, the car could handle well, especially as compared to its previous generations, but the ride was definitely at its peak on the 60-mph straightaways.
Lincoln presented the luxury factor in the form of a lot of power accessories (adjustable pedals, side mirrors, and 8-way adjustable front seats with power lumbar support and memory function) and wheel-mounted auxiliary controls. And of course there was a general aesthetic pleasantness in the nice interior, with its maple trim, leather seating surfaces, and carpeted floor mats. Naturally, the trunk on these cars is large, but the spare tire takes up space and compromises access, especially if the full-sized spare tire was opted for.
Besides the above, standard equipment on all levels of the 2002 Town Car included leather seating, air conditioning, cruise control, ABS, traction control, and side-impact airbags. A sunroof was standard on some trims and not available on the others.
Safety ratings were good on this big automobile, as it earned the maximum 5 stars in NHTSA frontal crash testing. It dropped a star on the side crash tests, though ? but the 4 is still an acceptable rating.
For that reason and many others, even just pure and simple American pride and customer loyalty, there were and still are plenty of pleased owners of the '02 Town Car. In online reviews, many of these happy drivers cited the comfort factor as well as the stately good looks of the large sedan. Some even likened it to the Titanic - a most positive comparison, since they surely weren't counting on it to be seaworthy. Others expressed their appreciation for the car's reliability and quiet ride, even when passing other cars.
Those who found fault with the car lamented its inferiority to foreign competitors in materials as well as fit and finish, but this camp seemed to be smaller than those who just plain want a big domestic car and won't nitpick. Predictably, there were complaints about the fuel consumption, but that should have come as a surprise to nobody.

Mission and Vision
Breakthrough Collaborative pursues a dual mission to:
- Increase academic opportunity for highly motivated, underserved students and get them into college ready to succeed; and
- Inspire and develop the next generation of teachers and educational leaders.
Our vision is to create an empowering educational experience that results in equitable access to higher education for our students and prepares our teaching fellows for education sector roles, enabling all of our students, teaching fellows, and instructional coaches to achieve their full potential as learners, teachers, leaders, and agents of change in their communities.
Breakthrough has been improving educational outcomes for young people since 1978, with the establishment of a single site at University High School in San Francisco. Over the next 20 years, Breakthrough grew to a collective of independent sites across the country.
Today, the Breakthrough national office located in Oakland, CA serves a collaborative network of 24 Breakthrough affiliates throughout the U.S. and one in Hong Kong by providing program standards and resources including curricula, evaluation tools, and teaching fellow recruitment. Breakthrough affiliates carry out direct services to middle- and high school students from under-resourced communities, college undergraduates serve as teaching fellows, and professional teachers serve as instructional coaches in their localities.
1978Lois Loofburrow founded the first Breakthrough program under the name Summerbridge. Summerbridge was designed as a six-week summer program for middle schoolers at University High School in San Francisco. The multi-year program was tuition-free—the cost of participation was the student's full commitment.
1979Summerbridge staffed its math department entirely with high school teachers, with professional teachers as mentors. The students-teaching-students and teachers-coaching-teachers model was born.
1980Summerbridge hired its first college-aged teachers.
1990Summerbridge New Orleans was founded with support from the directors of Summerbridge San Francisco and the affiliate model was created.
1991Summerbridge National was founded with the intent of launching more independently-run programs across the country. A new program in Manchester, New Hampshire, and a second site in San Francisco, opened for the summer.
1992Ten new programs opened for the summer.
1994Twenty-six Summerbridge programs operated across the country.
2001Summerbridge National became the Breakthrough Collaborative national office.
TodayBreakthrough Collaborative has 24 affiliate sites across the country and one in Hong Kong that collectively serve over 5,000 middle school students and over 1,000 teaching fellows each summer. The Breakthrough Collaborative national office is based out of Oakland, CA.

Developing automotive products is a complex task; the performance of a single sub-system can have a large impact on the overall system performance. Through many years of experience in developing vehicles and vehicle sub-systems, OptimumG has acquired the know-how to efficiently develop solutions for any vehicle dynamics system.
Our deep understanding of vehicle dynamics allows us to take a holistic approach to any project. OptimumG will quickly identify risks and opportunities within each development project and direct resources to areas with the biggest opportunities for gains. This ensures that developed solutions meet or exceed set specifications, while also ensuring we meet time, cost, and regulatory constraints.
Our team of experienced development engineers will work with our clients to effectively transfer that knowledge and experience to your organization. This approach stems from OptimumG's roots in teaching and training. Rather than just serving as consultants, we are also strive to be teachers. Our teaching strategy will help your organization to become better equipped to tackle similar problems in the future.
No project is too big or too small for OptimumG. Our agile organization can focus resources to solve any problem at hand. We can work with you on location or via our web-based collaboration platforms, and this option allows us to remain on standby for any of your requests and helps keep minimize costs.
We know what it is like to be on a budget, and will work hard to set a scope for each project that will maximize your return. This personalized plan is possible thanks to our highly scalable software, analysis, and testing methodologies.
If you would like to contact a project manager to discuss a development project, please contact us
Examples of past development projects:
Development of race car chassis and suspension
OptimumG has the capabilities to run complete development projects of vehicles and vehicle sub-systems. One past project included the complete development of a racecar chassis for a client in a very short time frame. Our tasks included project management, vehicle dynamics studies, mechanical design, manufacturing (through sub-contractors), and testing and validation. This car went on to win the championship during its first year.
Development of real-time tire force estimator algorithm
OptimumG was contracted to develop a real-time capable tire force estimation algorithm that was implemented in a on-vehicle measurement system. The algorithm was successfully implemented and validated against measurements.
Development and implementation of automated data acquisition methods
To more efficiently process logged data coming from racecars, OptimumG developed a tool which automatically performs a number of analysis tasks on the data before it's stored in a database. The system allow engineers to quickly access and review large amounts of data. By automatically highlighting deviations and trends, the tool simplifies the decision-making process for the engineers. As a result of the tool, the customer saw an increase not only in driver and vehicle performance, but also in reliability improvements.
Development of product data database software tool
Information management can be a challenge, so OptimumG developed a tool to help a motorsports customer keep better track of their products and their performance. The tool allowed the customer to track product stock, allocations to customers, and other important parameters through a unified user interface. The tool also allowed all information to be shared worldwide through a secure network. This way, engineers working at different locations would always have the most up-to-date information.

Fabi retires from Brazilian women's volleyball
The 34-year-old double Olympic champion announced she would not play for the green and yellow team.
The libero will continue playing for Brazilian club side Unilever and will focus on personal projects, completing one of the longest and most victorious volleyball careers with the shirt of the Brazilian national team.
Fabiana 'Fabi' Oliveira won 275 games out of 313 played over 12 years of playing for Brazil, who will start the defence of their FIVB Volleyball World Grand Prix title on August 1.
Amongst the major titles won by Fabi are two Olympic gold medals, six World Grand Prix titles, two World Championship silver medals, six South American crowns and one Pan-American Games trophy.
"It was a very difficult decision., I thought about it all last year and up to this moment," she said. "I thought about what I had done in the national team. My relationship with the national team was the best wedding that could happen. After two Olympic medals I had a clear view of what I had achieved, being aware that it was nice that everything went well and I did everything I had to do. I contributed as best you can and leave a nice story. My mission was accomplished.
"This is the hardest time for the athlete to decide when to stop. Today I have been thinking about other things, like studying, and I see myself more within the selection. Starting today, I am a big supporter of that group. I leave friends and unforgettable moments. What I will miss most is the interaction with the group," Fabi said.
Coach Jose Roberto Guimaraes lamented the decision of the athlete, but made a point to thank Fabi for years of service to the Brazilian national team.
"We tried to change her decision because her story mixes with the history of this group," he said. "She overcame many difficulties and obstacles for the player she is today. Her story is the commitment, dedication and resilience, especially in the most difficult moments of her career. We have to respect the choice and hope she is very happy. Nevertheless, what is important is the legacy and the example of a person and athlete that she gives for everyone. I know how much Fabi is loved and that will be greatly missed. I appreciate everything she did for the team."
The double Olympic champion Sheilla Castro also commented on Fabi's decision.
"I did not expect her to make that decision this year, but I understand her choice. She talked about the decision and I understand the reasons. I'm sure she will be successful in what she chooses in her life."


text: I gave it my all; as the final is approaching, I have decided to improve through some higher level problem like the functional ones. Those problems are a lot harder than the previous ones, they require some certain logics of coding including a higher level of coding language. In order to achieve the targets I have to use some of the outside coding materials to help me sole those problems . Meanwhile, I am reviewing some of the techniques of weaving a game in scratch. For further goals, I would finish the rest of functional-1 and start doing functional-2, map-1 and map-2

Nicaragua finds huge patron in Venezuela's Chavez
MANAGUA, Nicaragua — Over the past four years, entities controlled by Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega have received at least $1 billion in no-strings-attached donations through an oil deal brokered by President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela.
The windfall has helped Ortega mount a vigorous campaign to fight rural poverty and generate electricity — and to build political support for himself.
By the account of one respected economist, who was assisted by the World Bank in gauging rural poverty, the money has had a dramatic effect. It's put more food in the bellies of tens of thousands of Nicaraguans and better roofing over their heads.
It's also created a web of Ortega-controlled companies with no public oversight, making the president a force in Nicaragua's economy and blurring the lines between what belongs to him, to his party and to the citizenry.
Ortega's new economic clout unnerves those who compete with his business interests and angers civic activists, who say the oil proceeds should be transparent. The money, meanwhile, allows Ortega to buy off or silence his foes.
Ortega's senior financial adviser, Bayardo Arce, a former Sandinista comandante, said that Venezuelan assistance topped $1 billion, and he acknowledged that the off-the-books nature of the aid has facilitated a fight against poverty.
When Ortega came to office, Arce said, creditor banks and nations in Europe and North America had imposed a variety of conditions on new credit to the country.
"There were 54 conditions to obtain the loans — 54 conditions!" he said.
So when Chavez, a pan-Latin nationalist and critic of the U.S., offered a way to use oil imports to raise discretionary funds, the Ortega government jumped.
"Venezuelan aid has been fundamental for the country," Arce said, listing large assistance programs that have received money, such as Zero Hunger, Zero Usury, Roads for the People and Housing for the People.
The Zero Hunger program gives selected rural households pregnant cows, pregnant pigs, six chickens each, seed, materials to build stables and bio-systems to turn cow manure into cooking gas. Arce said the aid packages, worth about $2,000 each, had benefited 48,950 families so far.
As in many of the programs, the aid goes to the women at the heads of rural households, so that "the men don't sell the assets to raise money for booze," he said.
All told, the assistance programs have reached nearly 150,000 households. The Zero Usury program offers micro-loans to single mothers, and has benefited 79,500 women so far, Arce said.
Alejandro Martinez Cuenca, an economist with a Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University, said that research from his Managua institute, conducted with technical assistance from the World Bank, indicated marked improvements in rural conditions in barely four years.
"The principle factor is that the government has had access to unlimited resources from Venezuela, and these have gone toward the rural sector," he said. "This money has had an impact."
Martinez Cuenca said his study found that the number of Nicaraguans in extreme poverty fell from 17.2 percent of the population in 2005 to 9.7 percent in 2009.
The study also found that rural young people are staying in school slightly longer, lowering rates of illiteracy, and that rural housing conditions are improving.
"If you fly over the rural areas now, you'll see how it's changed. You'd see that many of the huts are no longer huts but small houses with roofs of zinc," said Martinez Cuenca, who served as foreign trade minister under the Sandinista government that ruled Nicaragua from 1979 to 1990.
Critics of the Venezuelan aid deny that it's reduced rural poverty, alleging that Ortega has siphoned off the money to strengthen his party and himself.
"To say that Daniel Ortega has reduced poverty is not true. The only poverty that Ortega has reduced is his own," said Vilma Nunez, a former Sandinista who heads the Nicaraguan Center for Human Rights.
The torrent of Venezuelan aid began in 2007, when the state-owned oil companies of Nicaragua and Venezuela created a private company, Albanisa, to handle the million of barrels of crude that Caracas was sending to Managua each year. Under the deal, Albanisa paid Venezuela half the market cost of the crude and kept the rest for use by Ortega.
Martinez Cuenca said the deal reaped $150 million in 2007, $400 million in 2008 and $450 million in 2009, all for Ortega to channel without obstruction from the National Assembly, where his party is in the minority.
The scheme is similar to other arrangements Chavez has set up under his regionwide Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas — ALBA, in its Spanish initials — which comprises Antigua and Barbuda, Bolivia, Cuba, Dominica, Ecuador, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in addition to Venezuela and Nicaragua.
Under the scheme, Albanisa funnels money to at least a dozen other firms — usually with Alba as part of their names — with interests in wind power, transportation, security, gas distribution, heavy machinery, food sales and port management. In November 2008, one of the companies bought the Nicaraguan assets of the Seminole Tribe of Florida, including a four-story hotel and a ranch that breeds high-quality cattle.
Early this year, Albanisa bought Telenica Canal 8, a private television station, temporarily forcing off the air the debate program of one of Ortega's fiercest critics, Carlos Fernando Chamorro, who spent months finding another private channel that was willing to risk the government's wrath to host his show.
The Alba business network under Ortega differs from the business dynasty the Somoza family built during more than four decades in power until its fall in 1979.
Historians say the Somozas treated Nicaragua like their personal ranch, putting profits first. In contrast, Ortega's businesses seem designed less to bring riches than to provide money for social assistance programs and offer him a large economic base to continue his political career.
Ortega's opponents said they didn't trust government assertions that he wasn't running up Nicaragua's public debt to Venezuela, and they lambasted the lack of legislative or fiscal control of the money and the Alba companies.
"They are subject to no supervision by the comptroller general," said Dora Maria Tellez, a minister of health under the Sandinistas in the 1980s.
Some businessmen gripe about competing with the Alba companies even as soaring sales of beef, beans, sugar and dairy products to Venezuela elate ranchers and farmers. Venezuela is now Nicaragua's second biggest export market.
Supporters and critics of the Venezuelan aid to Nicaragua agree on one thing: How long the aid lasts will depend on Chavez's ability to weather lower oil prices and remain in power well into his second decade in office.
"If the situation of Venezuela grows serious, then Daniel's situation will also grow serious," Martinez Cuenca said.

When a mega event like World cup or Olympics comes to a nation ,it spreads a new wind of hope and success to the local people.The football World cup 2010 to be held in South Africa brought great hopes to the locals as the world shifts its focus and looks on South Africa on its capability to host such a huge event.But now south Africa is on focus as the world cup extravaganza is ready to kick off.
South African Government which was in search for huge funds to build world class facilities for the visitors ....promised the local African people that the tournament would boost jobs,infrastructure,business and develop the locals.But before the tournament begins people saw only rise in problems and resulted in series of violent protests against the government.
The protest started when local African workers involved in construction of new stadiums and other infrastructures for the cup demanded better salary and work environment .South Africa also saw many people left house less,more than 30000 residents where removed and thrown to camps.
The South African government has spend a whooping $5 million for the world cup,But the revenue it will earn will end up in wrong hands.The clothing and all other accessories for the cup is contracted and exported from china and Taiwan by FIFA.South Africa should be aware of the consequences for investing huge money without net profit.The financial meltdown in Greece recently is said to be caused by the huge expenditure for the Olympics held in Athens.Even though China too invested very large money in Beijing Olympics...China always benefited from the Olympic Games ....as China ended the Olympics at top of the Table.
But whatever happens , entertainment is guaranteed .However South Africans may not economically benefit from the tournament but the tournament will offer sheer joy and enjoyment as they watch top football teams compete each other .... when the world visits south Africa ..lets hope Africans will forget the difference in White and Black and hope for a beautiful Tournament.

The beanie has been used since the 18th century by those who worked outdoors in cold weather. It was originally made from wool as a round, knitted cap that hugged the head to provide protection for those working on the seas, in the mountains and hunting. The Canadians referred to the style of cap as a tuque.
Warm Hat
Being 100% fleece, the long hat is a warm hat. It is constructed with a double layer of fleece making it warm all over. It won't get ruined from a bit of rain or snow. It is packable so it may easily be shoved into a pocket, down a coat sleeve or into a suitcase and it will always retain its original shape making it good for those with an active lifestyle.
Wear It Your Way
Depending upon how you prefer to wear hats; these long hats may be worn like a typical rolled beanie cap or baggy for a slouchy look.
Rolled Beanie Look
When it is really cold; by all means get extra warmth by rolling up the excess length of the hat. Roll up about the first 2″ to 3″ of the hat first and then pull it on to hug the head and turn up any remaining excess length as desired. To get the maximum benefit of the extra thickness, pull it down to cover the forehead and ear.
Baggy Look
When it is not really all that cold; go with the unrolled beanie approach. For the baggy look that gives a slouchy appearance with the long hat, skip rolling the end of the hat. Think headband when putting the hat on and position the hat on the head like you would do when you put on a headband. Once on; pull the sides over the ears as desired and give the back a brush down along the back of the head.
Prevent Matted Bangs
Gals with bangs should definitely consider going with this approach to wearing the long hat. It will be following the hairline at the top of the forehead so the hat will rest behind your bangs, not on them. Bangs will not get matted down. Hat on or off; bangs will show off like they always do.
Wear It His Way
At the Nike Elementary school's Holiday Mart, a grandson saw the long, paw prints hat on the rack and had to have it. The grandfather suggested he look over all the caps and hats, but the grandson really liked that one.
I saw him wearing it periodically through the event and at first it was rolled up. The last time I saw him, he had it unrolled and simply pulled on and bagging on the back of his head. It was his hat and he was wearing it his way. He looked so cute in his hat!
To Be Or Not To Be Seen
Hunters definitely like the camouflage, long hats and, with the double layer of fleece that can be rolled up to get 4-layers of protection over their ears when the wind is howling, they won't be disappointed when they really need a warm hat.

Hiking During Hunting Season
"I was searching the internet for "orange fleece hats" because my husband & I like to hike – even during hunting season… We thought your hats looked "visible," warm & stylish." Not seeing the sizes she needed, Brenda sent her request for a pair of long hats and a cloche hat in orange. The custom hats were created and dropped in the mail. Upon getting notice that the hats were on the way, she commented, "Thanks for the prompt service!" It was so nice to receive the picture she took of her husband while they were out hiking. He looks so nice in his orange hat. — Brenda D., Wenatchee WA
Matching Sister Hats
She and her sister found the long hats in fluorescent green and placed the online order. Then she quickly sent the email, "We actually wanted two hats but it shows sold out. Could you make another one?" The material was still available, so the plan was set to make the second hat for her sister and the initial one was dropped in the mail.
What Size is Best for a Baggie Fit?
Shortly the unfortunate results arrived. "I received the first hat today. it's actually quite small and I can barely get it on my head. the picture shows that modern look of it being long and droopy in the back and it just sticks straight up. If you have not already made the next one can you make a bigger one?"
Oh, no! So, what size is best? Your description really helps. I just tried on a small size long hat and I have the same results. While I can wear the small size; I typically like the medium size rather than small size for a fit that is not as snug in fleece. I always bump up to use the large size in this longer hat to get the baggy look. I believe that is what we should do. The exchange was made and both hats were made 2 sizes larger than she originally measured and thought they would require. Press here for the fluorescent green long hat.
Right Size Delivers Love Them Results
"Hey Becky, they arrived and I love them! Thank you so very much. You were a pleasure to work with and I will be happy to use and recommend you in the future." — Lynn Downing, Sammamish, WA
Hat happiness is when the hat feels right and delivers the look you want.
Long Hats in All Sizes
When these long style hats were introduced at their first show in the Fall of 2013, there was only the typical one-size-fits-most or adult M size. The kids liked seeing all of the colors and could not resist getting one even though it was really too big for the younger children. Because there is a double layer of fleece, they just rolled up more of the length and they were good to go. Parents liked the idea of being able to get several years of use out of the hat, so they were happy to buy a warm, hat the kids were going to use. Press here for the adult M size.
My Head is Smaller
Some of the ladies would say they had a smaller head and some of the kids would simply be swimming in the excess, so the requests would come for a smaller size. The adult S size was introduced and it fits those ages 6 to 10 years of age, and still the requests for smaller cropped up. Now; they are available in youth sizes, too. The starting size is youth S-M which fits ages 2 to 3 year olds and youth L-XL for those 3 to 5 year olds. Press here for the youth S-M size, here for youth L-XL and here for the adult S size.
My Head is Larger
Those who prefer the baggy look and really felt the hat was a bit too tight would ask for a larger size, so adult L and adult XL were introduced at the same time as the adult L. Some would say they have a larger head and some of those gals and guys would try on the adult XL and still say that it was too small. Really! Yes, really. The long style fleece hats now are available in adult 2XL. Press here for adult L, here for adult 1XL and here for the adult 2XL size.
If all else fails and you are unable to find a long hat that fits your larger noggin, please give us the opportunity to make a custom one that will be a perfect size for you. We want you to be comfortable! Please call 913-397-8071 or email [email protected] to talk about it.

We Need Your Support to Accommodate, Feed and Educate.
Jjuuko EdwardOur dear valued guardians, partners, donors, and entire family of born again people you are most welcome to GHJMC website and I pray for you to be blessed by the Most Merciful and Most Honorable Jesus Christ. Apostle Jjuuko Edward is an administrator who did BBA and has been in the field for more than 5 years and has been working as semi-skilled personnel to many organizations since the age of 17 years before starting GHJMC at age of 25years. I am the executive director of Garden of Honor Justice Mission for Children . I have served in different organizations like;- Set Free Ministries Kyabakuza and Ddwaniro branch, and served as a leader in church and born again faith schools as a teacher. I am married to Kabiri Maria for 2 years and blessed with a son.
Pr. Michael Walugembe
I am the Senior pastor of Glory of Christ church Kyabakuza Masaka.
I was born on 12th-09-1955 in greater Masaka district. I studied and completed my primary level from St. Herman Nkoni primary school, Bukalasa seminary for secondary with a wish of becoming a priest. I later joined a commercial business school and qualified as store keeper.
I got married on 8th-12-1979 and by now I have fourteen children. Among these children one of them got saved at eleven years. Being a staunch catholic, I was forced to disown him and chased him out of my home. One day as I was asleep, I heard a voice saying "Get saved" thrice. I opposed it but due to the pressure I was put on I agreed though it was for granted and did not accept salvation that time.
After a period of four months, one day my daughter's school dormitory got burnt and I had to go and check on her. On my way to my daughter's school, I met a young street child of around three years who asked me for some money of which i gave her. Surprisingly the money which I gave the child rolled down and made a sign of flowing snow!
On my way back, I noticed that I had remained with almost nothing because I had remained with only nine hundred Uganda shillings which could not even pay a quarter of my transport fares. I made up my mind to walk a distance of around 180km. as I started walking, God sent a messenger who gave me five thousand shillings which I used as my transport fares back home.
In that time, through God's messenger, God told me that it was the right time of accepting Jesus Christ to be my personal savior and at the same time visionary He brought the child I had met on the street and there and then I accepted Jesus to be my personal savior. I have walked this journey of salvation since 17th.07.2004 up to the time when I will hold my last breath with Him being my all in all.
After one and half years in Glory Christ church Ddwaniro Rakai where God had put me, I got another dream and heard a voice say to me "Time has come for you to be a pastor" I answered in a bold way "NO" and He replied "YES" and He instructed me to go to Kyabakuza Masaka district from Ddwaniro Rakai district.
God made this possible after a period one more year; I was trained as pastor and hold a diploma in theology. I am now a minister in Glory of Christ ministries Kyabakuza as a senior pastor. Ever since I started the journey of salvation I have so far started two schools;
– 1. Glory of Christ primary school Ddwaniro Rakai District.
– 2. Glory of Christ primary school Kyabakuza Masaka District.
….and whats my vision???
My vision is to educate and bring up God fearing children in future generations. I started with young children because my salvation begun with the young street child who was begging. From then, my heart started yearning to help young poor, orphans and vulnerable children in which some of them were neglected by their parents due to the fact that parents do not have money to satisfy their children's needs. This hurts me so much due to the fact that I am now a pastor.
