Bio and Links
I started on FAG with a memorial for my brother. Since then I have enjoyed filling in photos and maiden names and dates and birthplaces wherever I can find these.
I have a special interest in Finns, but I branch out wherever there is a mystery or a hole, or an unrecorded date.

It is not possible to save a photo from the site. I will just delete and you can post a request. I took this photo while traveling. Doubt if I will ever be back in that area.

RE: Charles Delbert Jumisko
I would if I could figure out how. The only option I see is to delete it.
I can't recall why I posted it on this memorial; perhaps there was no request for both of them at that time.
I don't save the photos after I post them. Perhaps you can try to save it to your computer and post it on the correct site. If not, perhaps you can get the Tech Asst at Find a Grave to help you.
Sorry about any problems I caused.
Let me know if you want me to delete it if you do not have access to do that.

I am trying to find more information about a childhood friend of mine and I noticed you had added a picture to his F.A.G page. I am actually trying to reconnect with his sister(s), Sharon Goin or Midge Goin. I had no idea Kenny had passed until finding this. Do you by any chance have any ideas that might help me finding them?

It just so happens that the guy who started Find A Grave is my uncle, so I enjoy special access to services not available to the public.
Just kidding!
It's pretty easy, really. Since Ancestry bought Find A Grave, they've beefed up member services. My advice is not to bother contacting memorial owners and ask for dupe removals. You never know whether they'll be friendly or hostile, or just ignore your requests.
Write to firstname.lastname@example.com and give them the deceased's name and include the original memorial number and the newer, duplicate memorial number with a request for deletion. Keep it to those items only; do not try to "make your case" with long arguments. Under Find A Grave rules, the first memorial takes precedence.
Send your Greenwood dupes to email@example.com. In my experience they're quick to respond.
Hope this helps.

A View From The Great White North: James Filippelli Uncut
By: Poster Bot
On November 9th I was the first in line at the Canadian immigration office… the first rat ready to abandon ship in the shadow of a Trump presidency. The attempt failed, but I wrote about the experience, and although a version of my story was published in NOW, the full story was edited down to half its original glory. So this story isn't about Trump, or the rat returning home with his tail between his legs. It's about the man who was cut from the pages of NOW, in a sad and profit-motivated attempt to cut James Filippelli from the pages of history.
James is the founder and current head of Your Political Party Of British Columbia. My interest in him was that YPP can be likened to an American third-party, and because my intent was to Continue reading
Big Party at the Crumps: Book Excerpt
Drug Run
By: Dr. Rocket with Ms. Gonzo
The capacity crowd at Wild Bill's Saloon were wildly yet amiably drunk that late August night, and some had also gotten high out in the parking lot. All were on their feet. The sweaty young Texas hipsters knew that this was the final performance of Suze's band, and many in the crowd were her loyal fans that had packed the dive full every Friday for the last three months. They shouted, driven into a frenzy that was electrifyingly tribal.
Suze, inspired, threw every last trick she had at the revelers. Her vocal chops were up, and she felt locked in with the band as they pounded out tune after tune in sequence, barely stopping between the songs. Suze grinned in triumph. They had never sounded better.
"You've got to shake your money maker" she shouted, wagging her Continue reading
Story Girls
By: Michael Chin
Jackson and Lily went to St. Peter's because their father wanted to steer them from the bad influences of a public high school. He told them getting an education was not about smoking in bathrooms or fist fights or winding up pregnant before graduation.
Jackson knew the rationale, and remembered it one week into Catholic school, after his class watched a video to commemorate the tenth anniversary of terrorists crashing planes into the World Trade Center, and pimply-faced Johnny Reds spread his arms like an air craft and spiraled head first into Jinder, the only brown-skinned kid in school. Johnny made crashing sounds as he reenacted the terrorist attacks,like they were some big joke.
Jackson remembered what he had heard about bad influences, too, when he followed Johnny and friends out of the convenience store after school, ugly blue and gold school ties bunched up in their right pockets, stolen one-pound bags of M&Ms crammed in the left.
Almost-Rape, American Tourists, and Pope Garbs
by Teddy Fuentes
The Mexican Dream: Almost Getting Raped, American
Asshole Tourists, and Nostalgia Dressed in Pope Attire.
I was inside a home.
This place was downtrodden but very enticing.
White walls now a cream color. Brown stains like cigarette smoke made art, staining glass never meant to be seen through.
Furniture looked stale, but with the intense feeling of always having been there. Filled with purpose laced with antiquity.
Dust converged and sat on every flat surface. Coating the place with calm and stillness I longed for inside.
It was not my home, but it was Mexico and it felt like home.
The dichotomy of my idea of safety in Mexico means I was aware of all lurid possibility, yet remained jubilant as fuck to have the feeling of belonging.
Outside, through a tiny metal cased window, I saw something very Yin to the home's sweet Yang.
Something alive, loud, and dark.
The Pope, and a parade for his majesty, was passing by.
All costumes and serious faces with smiles whose corners emit distrust.
It gave me very evil vibes, but surprisingly little sense of foreboding.
As curiosity killed the cat, I gravitated.
Like Esoteric and hidden knowledge obsessed moth to a very endearingly paradoxical flame, I went outside intrigued.
The spectacle had drawn crowds of people who had never been in a dominantly Catholic country.
Americans wearing pastels and sandals.
Also wearing dubious intent glares through Western-lens stares that definitely had roots in mangled psyche's which repeat to the brainwashed mind "the rest of the world is a twisted work of Art", "A work of art to be coveted or looked down upon."
Little did I stare at the Pope and the crowd before I was done and gone.
Intrigue at the parade turned to monotone boredom.
Then that turned into a longing to explore the Mexican streets.
To be honest, the Catholic charade was an all too familiar sight.
Having studied at least some of every facet of ancient "knowledge" and growing up Catholic, I didn't feel impressed.
I just innately felt that visually, it was just all a ritual to steal others energy.
I very much HI-BYE'ed the scene.
I took my positive energy in my tight black jeans' pocket and became resolute in crossing.
My Mexican butt was just happy to be in Mexico.
I was filled with nostalgia and I wanted more.
I wanted street vendors and the smell of Churros.
I wanted urban filth and all the lovely shades of brown faces of my people. I wanted Spanish coursing through my brain soothing the harshness of the English language I had been previously subjected to for over a decade.
I wanted the vibrations of a kinder more forgiving and one hundred percent Mexican place to make love to my incessant nostalgia.
I wanted HOME.
This is when I crossed through the parade. My body literally dodging bishops and silly jester-like people carrying heavy metal objects in all religious shapes and sizes.
I felt very avant-garde, breaching a procession like this in a super obvious aloof yet determined manner. It was art.
I was wearing the most typically grungy, all black outfit, too.
I was thinking, "I look a god damned fool cutting through this, oh mother fucking well, let God, let God." and very much feeling my self.
"Why did the chicken cross the road?" and YOLO type feeling.
Anyways, when I did reach the other side, I was birthed into a crowd of tourists.
To be frank, they were all light skinned American, wide eyed, giving me a feeling that this was not the sea of people my way-too-forgiving soul should navigate.
The parade was at it's tail end and only a sprinkle of actually low key terrified Them remained.
(They probably felt their pack thinning out and were afraid of what the reverse of "stronger in numbers" means in Mexico.)
I looked no one in the eye, big head held high, as if their judgement meant nothing to me.
While having these very thoughts of "I don't care, but I do" , I found myself past the river of eyes and walking on a beaten sidewalk.
My step grew calm and my eyes travelled to the natives walking towards me.
No, Shel Silverstein fans? This is not where the sidewalk ends.
The sun was setting orange tones and the city backdrop was grey buildings crawling with graffiti and soul .
I did not get too far down the concretely contorted and govern-mentally forgotten sidewalk until two men came into view.
They had strange mannerisms, dipping and swaying to the troughs and valleys of the ground.
I knew this drunk dance all too well. Public and full of disregard.
My immediate feeling was "be careful but sweet."
The ominous and bittersweet tone of the surroundings swirled into the smell of alcohol they emanated.
Their aura was mysterious. But I could sense some intention beneath their red-glazed eyes attempting to seem cordial.
Using drunkenness as a buffer to fucked up things is also something I am sadly familiar with.
I said "hola, como estan" or something happy go lucky, a smile on my lips and my misandry gun on my hip.
My youthful tone was "don't fuck with me, supposedly kind sir."
But, like any story about men fucking up and worth telling, they did.
The drunker, muscular, towering one grabbed me from behind as soon as I was a mere inch past them.
I was in a choke-hold. One arm around my chest slash neck, and the other around my stomach.
I semi-panicked, knowing that this was typical kidnapping procedure in Mexico. Aware that it would more than likely end in violent rape and my body never found would rot six feet in a mass grave dug by elements of the Police who work with drug traffickers.
My female survival instinct kicked in. Before I even had the stench of my rotting corpse hit my mental nose, I looped my stronger left leg around his drunken spaghetti both-legs.
His knees buckled. He fell. Swift justice was candid and heard.
His skull possibly cracked. His head definitely smashed.
ssssss CRUK was the sound of his slipping and colliding with a little dose of reality.
You can't burger king have it your way, forever, fucker.
A pool of instant-karma-blood oozed as his face lay unconsciously in a crimson lake of Don't Fuck With Me.
Here's the plot twist – I did not run . I did not take my unforgiving steel toed black boot and obliterate his face into a million skull fractures and brain dismemberment.
I didn't panic. I didn't walk away full of Pride. I didn't revel at how quickly I disarmed his disgusting and misguided phallic-y. I mean, fallacy. I didn't put my middle fingers in his face, pressing down on his sweaty, maybe decaying because of me skin, in contempt and as a final Fuck You.
This might disappoint some feminists of revolutionary and war-like thought, but, a Motherly sense grew within in.
The sight of his blood and his eye lids closed posed the idea of me maybe having killed another.
Another human who used to be a baby. Another brother. Another son. Another someone who was raised to become this monster I so gallantly and possibly slayed into the eternal abyss.
I felt panic at that thought. That realizing mistakes and redemption are only ideas that can be manifested with life. That we all have potential coursing through our veins, and that his was spilling endlessly at my very feet.
I turned to his partner, who is now just looking just in disbelief.
He was frozen and my mind went from "I'm getting kidnapped to get raped then murdered" to "Oh my fuck I think I almost killed this human being, I need to get help for him."
I was showered in no guilt, but a sense of urgency to restore him back to Life.
I walked back the sidewalk the way I came. There were a few tourists still lingering.
The closest people I spotted were a mother in her mid 30's with her small child of probably seven.
I was pacing fast and when I got about fifteen feet away I started explaining clearly but in a hurry that "someone's hurt, I need a towel, a napkin, something-" . I was pointing behind me with a super expressive face of someone is in danger, please help, but
the white woman had a very apprehensive look. Maybe as if this was some type of con. Maybe as if she was trying to protect her child?
I am around five feet mother fucking tall…
Maybe my teenage angst black outfit spoke a little.
I didn't care. In my mind, the tone of urgency spoke for itself.
I was keeping enough of a distance to not make then flee.
She reached for a napkin out of an American invention that looks silly as fuck but is useful and holds small objects.
Here's where my gratefulness turned into full on external hatred- she leaned over, hand outstretched, face still bitchy, and the mother blessed napkin slipped out of her clean but nasty little bony hand. She did it with PURPOSE. She did it with subconscious malice dressed in supposed caution.
I boiled over in Mexican Pride. I boiled over and her condescending actions was heat enough to warrant an explosion.
My face filled with blood and I literally forgot what the napkin was for. My body tensed up and my throat let out steam.
"DO I NOT LOOK WHITE?" Thunder. Fire.
She was shocked, standing still, as if no one had ever called her out on that deeply ingrained Interpersonal Nastiness Americans use as a self centered tool to deflect.
Her frozen expression of fear told me the deer in the headlights stance and look was, one: not suitable for her facial structure, two: great for stabbing at anciently racist, pathological entities.
I stabbed, "This is my fucking HOME, not a ZOO, go throw your pity napkins some where else, GO GAWK AND TRAMPLE WITH YOUR EXPENSIVE SANDA-"
That's all I remember.
Where my vocal disdain for the unsuspecting lady cut off, I now wonder if the man laying in the pool of blood survived.
Yes, I completely forgot about the man.
Yes, I am not as benevolent as previously thought.
Yes, my nerves and memory are tied and cut where racist tendencies and me collide
Yes, I felt accomplished even if I delivered a thousand degrees of Mexican defense and it was perhaps a tad unwarranted.
My native and light skin was just happy to be there, kissed by the Mexican sun, soaking in all the intensity.
Posi Negi, deadly, vivacious, touristy, unforgiving, eclectically magic and always intense, Mexico energy.
Now I sit here writing this. Longing for Mexico fills the spaces of my soul where the United States is a blessing but could never fill the cracks.
Even the tourists, the pope, and the surmounting statistical chance to be raped, kidnapped, and murdered, the location still made me feel complete.
Now I am filled with nostalgia and I want more.
I want street vendors and the sweet smell of Churros.
I want urban filth and all shades of brown painted on my Paisa people.
I want español coursing it's friendly melodies through my brain. I want it to soothe the edgy and confusing harshness of the english language I have been subjected to for over a decade.
I want the vibrations of one hundred percent Mexican place to make love to all my senses.
I want the incessant nostalgia that creeps in daily to fade, but only because when I look out, I can see the piques of a Catholic church and can hear the Mariachi music of a crowd of six serenading a lady next door.
It's a trip that the intricacies of my ethnic roots could come down to location. It's crazy that I need to travel to feel closer to my Self.
I long for Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
I want so motherfucking much, and I want it so motherfucking deeply;
But in truth?
I just want Home.

Event: Heritage Tree Workshop
Ontario Urban Forest Council Heritage Trees Workshop
Where: Central Experimental Farm and Arboretum, Salon A in the Neatby Building (Carling Ave.)
When: Friday June 8 at 8:30 am to 5:00 pm
This session addresses the value of (urban) trees with a focus on understanding the economic, ecological, social and cultural value of trees to the urban community. Current research will be reviewed to assist in understanding TEV (total economic value) of trees.
A brief session defining "heritage tree" using the definition of Paul L. Aird (Professor Emeritus, Faculty of Forestry, University of Toronto) which reflects the physical and cultural requirements for designation. It will address, with photographic examples, the unique "natural and cultural heritage value" requirements that has qualified specific individual trees/groves and cultural heritage landscapes and provides a differentiation between "Heritage trees", "Ancient trees" and "Champion trees".
How communities and individuals have identified their potential heritage trees and worked to celebrate and protect them. One of several options to be discussed is "The Great Community Tree Hunt"… how to organize this event. Then… what is next?
A review of the Evaluation Criteria and Guidelines used to assess those trees identified by individuals and/or communities in order to create a list of "heritage trees" worthy of designation and protection. This section:
A] Explains the evaluation criteria (physical and cultural) used the Toolkit's evaluation forms (an overview)
B] Addresses the criteria of cultural significance under the Ontario Heritage Act and how to undertake cultural research on trees.
Note: the "how to" of physical tree evaluation will take place in the field at the end of the workshop.
A session on the legal and policy options available for celebrating and protecting heritage trees under the Municipal Act, the Planning Act and the Ontario Heritage Act.
The proper implementation of renewal, and maintenance activities known to be appropriate for Heritage Trees which maintain a tree's health, aesthetic and heritage values… and how this may differ from general tree stewardship practices.
Workshop Evaluation and curriculum input.
Field training session for arborists, other forestry professionals and cultural historians in evaluating heritage trees.
[Certification will be provided for qualified attendees that fill the requirements of full attendance and training.]

Rented a reliable van from here for a very good price. It was a bit rough around the edges but worked well. The team were very nice and friendly, and picked us up from the airport to make things smooth and hassle free. It was nothing fancy, but did the job just fine. Highly recommended.

A New Malden restaurant has had its license revoked after illegal workers were found working inside.
Spicy Island in Burlington Road, which serves Sri Lankan and Indian food, has had its license revoked at a licensing sub-licensing meeting today.
Councillors made the decision after two people who did not have the right to work in the UK were found working inside the restaurant.
Su La Korean in Kingston Road also had its future hanging in the balance after four illegal workers were discovered, but it was allowed to stay open after five new conditions were imposed and another condition amended at the hearing.
The raids by Home Office officers and police were carried out in October last year.

The Toronto Blue Jays announced Tuesday a three-game suspension for shortstop Yunel Escobar as a result of a homophobic slur written in Spanish on the eye black he wore during last Saturday's game.
The punishment, agreed upon by major league baseball, the team and the players' association, will include a donation to the You Can Play Project and the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. Escobar also will take part in sensitivity training and an educational outreach effort focused on tolerance.
He begins serving the suspension Tuesday night.
"I don't have anything against homosexuals," Escobar said Tuesday through a translator at a news conference. "I have friends that are gay.
"The person who decorates my house is gay; the person who cuts my hair is gay."

LOUISVILLE — William Irvin "Billy" Howell, who was inducted into the Kentucky Motorsports Hall of Fame last August at the Swope Cars of Yesteryear Museum in Elizabethtown, has died. Howell, who had battled cancer, died Tuesday. He was 72.
Howell had been owner, operator and director of Billy Howell Funeral Chapel in Hodgenville.
His stock car racing hobby began in 1962 at Louisville's Fairgrounds Motor Speedway. He raced weekly there and won the 1975 season championship for new and late models.
ISSUE: Radcliff's Summer Blast 2011
OUR VIEW: It's a promise kept
The National Weather Service has issued a severe thunderstorm warning that stretches from Meade County, across the northern tip of Hardin County including Fort Knox and stretches into Bullitt County and southern Jefferson County.
The severe weather is prompted by the back end of a line of storms that created tornadoes in Jefferson County earlier this evening. The storm warning continues until 10:30 p.m.
Parents are often eager to work with their incoming kindergartener over the summer to prepare for their first year of school, and while educators stress it isn't necessary, it can be a helpful boost to children.
Carlena Sheeran, the early childhood director for Hardin County Schools, said kindergarten teachers take children at the level they enter school and work with them from there.
To keep cadets safe during the Leaders Training Course at Fort Knox, an emergency weather system has been placed near West Point to notify cadets in the field of any impending dangerous weather.
Because part of the training involves sending cadets off-post, officials decided to add an extra layer of safety during the approximately five days of training that takes place near West Point, said Jeff Markle, a training division representative. A siren will sound to alert cadets and instructors of incoming lightning or tornadoes.
As adults and children alike are enjoying summer activities, it's important for everyone under the sun to protect their eyes from ultraviolet rays.
A local education leader joined others across the state Wednesday to show that children who are "great by 8" can be great at any age.
Al Rider, president and chief executive officer of the North Central Education Foundation, spoke at a statewide summit for the Great by 8 initiative. The effort's aim is to educate communities on how early childhood education influences economic growth.
Rider presented information on how businesses can be involved in early childhood education.
The production of "The Secret Garden" in New Albany, Ind., has closed. During the planning and the performance of the musical, I got to experience up close another important part of theater performance. I paid special attention to the technical side of the production, which included the props and sets.

Keep recession's lessons in mind
The U.S. auto industry is back on track. There is momentum, and it's all in the right direction. But as the many speakers at the Automotive News World Congress cautioned last month, automakers, suppliers and dealers need to remember a few key lessons from the horrific experiences during the automotive depression.

1. Female mitochondrial DNA can be traced back to a single African woman.
2. All non-African people alive today are descendants of this single female, the out of Africa Eve.
3. These early tribes migrated out of Africa during an ice age, when the Sahara was open, and settled in the Persian Gulf before it was flooded (The Old Testament flood?). Geneticists know this as the L3 migration.
4. After the flood one tribe migrated north and settled in an area between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, the most likely location for Eden.
Correlating these facts with the Old Testament it can be concluded that all people on Earth are descended from either Cain or Seth. The descendants of Cain being the result of original sin and the descendants of Seth being the offspring of soul mates. Herein lies the source of conflict between two opposing groups that inhabit the earth today.
The story is taken up during the First World War when a private is shot at dawn for desertion. His only crime was to become lost and disorientated in no man's land during a gas attack. The injustice metered out is witnessed by a comrade who vows to exact revenge on those responsible once the war is over. An incident prior to his execution leaves a residual, present day legacy manifest in the form of a seemingly ordinary man.
It transpires that this man is descended from the line of Seth, his name is Daniel and he appears to have no history, is inexplicably wealthy, knowledgeable and talented and he is on a mission, a mission to dilute the forces of evil brought into the world by the descendants of Cain. His aim is to change the ground rules to disadvantage the Cain gene allowing a more cooperative gene to emerge and eventually dominate.
Daniel's enemies appear as a succession of persistent and humourless stalkers who have driven his life long friend, Hannah, to the edge of insanity and it is her condition that galvanises Daniel into final, resolute and unrestrained determination in dealing with them. His acts of uncompromising aggression cause his close associates to wonder what they are dealing with. Nevertheless, as far as Daniel is concerned, these stalkers are only symptomatic of a more fundamental malice that lurks at the heart of our primitive, primate psychology. This malice is characterised by Jake, a beautiful, irresistible, yet ultimately evil and amoral presence that torments both Daniel and Hannah in a twilight world of lucid nightmares.
Daniel plans to use a combination of deception, contemporary genetics and ancient alchemic wisdom in order to erode the enemy's power. This takes him back to Africa, his home but Jake and his foot-soldiers are relentless in their pursuit and Daniel is aware that, unless he acts soon, Hannah will finally loose her sanity altogether and his goal will become unachievable. He is forced to reveal the truth about himself and the nature of his quest in order to enlist help but, in doing so, the magnitude and seriousness of his ambitions are uncovered.
As a descendent of Seth, Daniel's genes are closer to perfection than the Cain gene that mutated when original sin entered the world. They carry residual traits from Biblical times and give him an advantage over his enemies, an advantage that he puts to good use when his scheme to inch the world closer to heaven and further from hell becomes unstoppable.

This is a long overdue update I know. The time came last month when I normally update both my stories in one go and since I finished the other stories chapter first I updated that, then as I was writing up this chapter I learnt someone very close to me had died. So for the last week or so I've been busy with my theatre workshop and that. Also I know the last chapter was rather er..crap, but it was relevant. Sort of.
Diapers. Pacifiers, babygrow, a crib, a high chair, a changing table, a teeny bathtub, a carrier, a little car seat and a push chair. That's only half the stuff a baby needs. Half the stuff we need to buy- sorry, half the stuff I'm paying for. Months of wage down the drain, or more accurately, my envisioned new car. We've three months left and I'm feeling the strain. Marnie is oblivious to the fact that since I'm paying, I get an opinion. But so far she's chosen every thing except the diapers, which was left to me. I've been delegated to the role of bag carrier, since Marnie 'can't do any heavy lifting' which apparently even includes pacifiers, but I know all this is bullshit as the other day she managed to move Karen's easy bake oven for her pretty fine. And that thing is quite hefty.
Currently I'm on my break at TGI's and I'm alone out back on the stoop with a cigarette, Clyde had graced me with his presence five minutes ago, but not being a smoker he went back inside to hunt out any left over dessert. Last week Clyde gave Bebe the My boobs are REAL! badge, which is pretty funny.
So far I've spent half my break on the phone to a very drunk Stan, who seems to be upset about some thing; but isn't making enough sense to explain. Cigarette in hand I wedge the phone between my ear and hunched shoulder, nodding to myself as Stan mutters some thing inaudible.
"It's shit, its shit! The whole thing, just a big pile of...of...stuff, y'know? I don't know. What's up with that?"
"I don't know either buddy." I simply reply, taking a drag. I don't know whats up Stan's ass but I'm miserable because Marnie seems to still 'like' me; at least, before she had to collect me from the police station last Tuesday.
After a lot of shouting and confirmation of Butters's true gender, we managed to explain to the cops what we'd been doing. They let us off with a warning but we had to have our parents collect us from the station. My mom can't drive so I decided to call Marnie. She showed up and took one look at us all, and Craig's still present boner, and looked more pissed off than I'd ever seen her before.
"Your mad at me aren't you?"
"I'm not mad Kenny."
"You are I can tell."
"Alright then, I'm not mad." she sighed, grasping the steering wheel tightly. "I'm furious. I'm furious I had to come all the way here to get you, but you individually? I'm not mad or furious, I'm disappointed. Don't you think its time to become more responsible? Just a little?"
And that sucks so much more than anger.
I haven't spoken to her since then, and it's gotten me a little wound up. I still can't understand what she means, I am responsible. The moment my dad left I took charge and helped out, I clean up after Kevin and watch out for Karen. I earn the money and pay the bills and I'm taking responsibility for this child. If that's not responsible, I sure as hell don't know what is.
After Tuesday's fiasco, Butter's was definitely grounded. I wanted to do some thing about it but I couldn't. A sure fire way to piss off your partners parents is to challenge their parenting. The minute I had enough cash, and everything sorted out, Butter's would come and live with me. I'd make sure of it.
Eventually I'm forced to hang up on Stan, after he fails to understand 'bye', 'okay, see you later' or even 'Stan I have to fucking go'. I toss the stub of my cigarette on to the frosty tarmac and stamp it out as is employee policy. Just as I enter the warmth of the building my phone sings again, vibrating against my thigh. Reaching for and retrieving it I see that the caller I.D is blank.
"Kenny?" It's Kevino.
"Sup' bro?"
"I need your help. Like a lot this time." A small chill runs up my spine, a desperate plea is hidden beneath small words.
"What is it?" I ask carefully, my stomach doing back flips.
"Look I gotta go- just meet me in the parking lot behind the Pizzeria-"
"That abandoned dump?"
"Exactly. Kenny I really gotta go." His voice is urgent now, scared. "I'll see you there. Please." The line is cut and the dial tone rings through my ears. I hang up on my own end, and I feel my cheeks drain, I'm worried.
"Don't cry, I'm sure they'll have leftover wings tomorrow." Clyde's voice teases from beside me and I cough, clearing my throat.
"I have to go. This is big." I root through my pockets, through my keys and the packets of gum I swiped from all the other employee's in a bet I won on weather the fat lady would order two desserts or not. A lot were mint and bubblegum, two nicotine, and I don't even want to say several others. These guys have strange taste in gum. I locate my swipe out card and give it Clyde. "Please just do this for me man, its urgent."
"Alright." Clyde says eyeing me warily. He puts my swipe out card in his own pocket and piles the dirty plates he has in the dish trolley as Jesse wheels it past. "Where are you rushing off to?" He adds and follows me as I barge through the swing door to the changing room. I grab my jacket from my locker and zip up.
"It's Kev," I say. "It's urgent and I have to meet him behind the Pizzeria."
"If you can find it." Clyde snorts. He goes to the communal cupboard at one end of the room. The communal closet is where we dump lost and found items recovered from the staff rooms. (If a customer loses some thing and doesn't reclaim within a week, we keep for ourselves. They leave some nifty stuff.) The closet also has a tiny 'disaster kit', in case people incline to dine at TGI's in the middle of a disaster or something. Inside is -or was- a fire blanket, (but we donated it to the homeless guy who roots through our trash), a roll of bandage gauze, a whistle and flare, and a flashlight. Clyde gave me the flash light which left the bandage the only remaining piece of the kit. I don't know what happened to the whistle and the flare, but Clyde, Khloe, Chip and I all suspect Crazy Steve.
The Pizzeria is back in town, but its only on the edge; down behind The Chinese restaurant. That's right, the car park behind The Pizzeria behind The Chinese restaurant. And that's what they're actually called. The Chinese and The Pizzeria. South Parker's are very imaginative. Turning on the flash light I make my way down the weed infested track aside the currently closed pizza place. When I arrive its empty, so I wait for Kevin. After a few minutes of freezing my balls off some body else arrives, but it isn't Kev. It's a tall dark haired man whose probably a little older than my brother. His face is dirty with what I assume is just dirt, and he is wearing stone wash jeans and those builder boots with steel cap toes. He also has on a mud brown jacket with closed pockets and he looks confused to see me at first, but then calm. He walks over with his hands in his pockets.
"Are you Kenny McCormick?" he asked. "Kevin told me we could find you here."
"I am."
It sounded so formal, like on TV where the agents or the drug barons meet, and they act so cool and casual. But I didn't have time to feel cool, because I felt pain. His fist has made connection with my jaw, and I staggered backwards holding it.
"You fucker!" he shouted swinging at me again. "Where's my money?" Everything snapped in to place like a jigsaw puzzle.
"I don't have it!" I shouted back. "I don't-" I was kicked back and to the ground. I tasted dirt; I tasted blood. The blood tasted bitter, acidic. Of course this would happen sooner or later. Kevin was completley broke, but would still buy his drugs, then when the feds turned up he would 'ask me for money' by sending them after me. I didn't know what to do, this guy could kill me and he was barley trying. The only way out of this was to grass Kevin up, tell them I'm nothing to do with him anymore. I can't do it to him, I can't; but I have to, there's people who need me. Really need me.
"Kevin lied-" I spat as I sit up, salivating on the ground. "He doesn't have the money, so he sent you after me, I'm nothing to do with him!" My blame is black and white.
As if on cue, the true perpetrator arrives from around the corner, hands stuffed into the pockets of his checked zip up. His long dirty fringe shielded his eyes along side the darkness and made it impossible to tell where he was looking; but I could tell from the way his lips were set and pursed, he was guilty.
"I said he was here, not to hurt him.." Kevin mumbled dumbly and the guy walked over to him, shoving him back.
"Where is my fucking money? I've waited two weeks, and if you don't have it Scott will have my balls, and I'm not getting in shit cause' of you!" he shouted. So it was Scott who ran this thing. I've always thought he was a leech, taking scraps from other people, but now it makes sense that he's the ring leader, he always came across as a sadistic tyrant. In that way, you can tell he and Cartman are related.
Kevin slammed in to the wall and looked up at the guy through his fringe. "Seriously man." he said quietly at first. "Gimme' till tommoro', I swear I'll have it then."
"That's what you said last week fuck tard." Our attacker seethed through his teeth. "No, no more waiting, you'll just run away." He took aim and swung at Kevin, landing a blow across his face that echoed in between the cinder block walls. I didn't think fast enough to stop him. Then as Kevin reached for his face the man repeated the attack in to his stomach.
"What the hell man?" I shouted at him but remained frozen in place, I didn't know what to do or why I couldn't move. Maybe part of me knew that Kevin deserved this, and that I had to have him face the consequences of his trouble.
"What?" the guy snapped, throwing a pissed off glance at me over his shoulder. "I'm doing my job dude, and I'm also doing you a favour really, what kind of brother sends his dealer after his kid brother? Kevin's seen me enough times, he knows what dirty cut-lery I carry..." The man shoves Kevin down with one hand and roots through his jacket pocket with the other. Through the layers of dark fabric I could make out his hand close in to a fist around some thing before he slid out a knife. A rusty knife with patches of dried blood splattered down the blade and plastic handle. The plastic is befitting. I myself wouldn't spend money on a weapon I might have to dispose of one day. But despite that revelation it's still a knife, and Kevin's still my brother.
The vines that have me rooted to the spot snap suddenly, and I ran forward and dragged the man up and off Kevin and hit him. I hit him on the head and back and face with my flash light. The hit draws blood from his face, spraying it across the concrete. I grab the arm that he holds the knife with and twist it behind his back, squeezing the wrist tightly until his fist springs open, and the knife falls to the ground with an equally dirty clatter.
"I'm Kenny fucking McCormick," I mutter harshly in to his ear. "Do what you like, but I die and I come back, seriously. You can't get rid of me." I deliver a final punch to the back of the mans head, and shove him forward in to the wall. He slumps down to the ground in either unconsciousness or defeat. Picking up the blade I toss it in to one of the rusting dumpsters, and it silently sinks deeper through the black bin bags.
Kevin is stood up now. He's wiping his chin with his sleeve, blood staining the dingy gray jacket, but the substance is all to familiar to him. "Thanks." he says weakly . "I owe you."
"You do." I reply instantly, anger boiling up. "You really do Kev, and more, you owe yourself. You have to stop this shit man."
"I am." Kevin's response is as quick as mine. "After this, its opened my eyes-I need help. I'll stop."
I think he's telling the truth because he sounds sad; like he might cry. But I've heard this all before no matter what emotion he's over come with.
His first beating. 'I know, I can't believe I got involved in that shit. Never again. Seriously.'
His first time waking up in hospital, blood stained bandages up and down his arms. 'This is serious I know. This messes you up. I'm sorry. It's over, I'll get help as soon as I'm released.'
Arrested. 'They let me go with a warning, they know I'm a good kid they said. That was scary, I won't do that stuff ever again."
It's all the same. And nothing I do can stop him. And nothing is pushing me to the edge where I deal him a mind blowing testament. I just keep believing his lies again and again. I can't help him.
"It's over now, Uncle Kevin is never going to let any of this crap near the baby." And there it was.
"That's the thing Kev." I begin the hardest decision I've so far had to make, and I have minutes to decide and do it. "I don't want you near my kid. "
"What?" Kevin simply frowns. Every thing about Kevin is simple.
"I've heard that revelation crap before, but you never meant it. No...until you stop, until you really stop- your not meeting my kid."
Kevin's face is ashen, and I know his chest is collapsing in on itself in agony. But I have to protect my child, my vulnerable unborn baby; not my irresponsible older brother. If any thing, he should be taking care of me. He can't go on like this- we can't go on like this.
"There's a rehab clinic in Denver I checked out a while ago. I can get some one to drive you up there tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Kevin echoes and suddenly he's tiny. He's a little boy whose done some thing wrong and the punishment seems devastating.
"Because I don't think you should stay at home." I continue. "Your hurting me. Your hurting mom and Karen. Your actions affect us all and we hate to look at you and know what goes on when you leave the house. Don't you want to do some thing with your life other than this? Don't you have dreams or aspirations?"
I've gone to far and I know it. Right now getting Kevin to the clinic is the primary goal, I shouldn't be confusing him with philosophical crap. But maybe it will give him some thing to think about while he's there.
I've never seen him look so lost. Growing up, Kevin was mighty. He was the older brother you admired when he coolly slunk out the house with his friends, a bottle of Jack Daniels stashed up one of their sweatshirts. He told awesome tales of parties and girls with huge tits. But now he looked small and lost and pathetic. Maybe one day I'll look up to him again. Some day.
Karen sprints past me to hide under the jungle gym, and is chased by Ike Broflovski who has some thing cupped in his hands. I'm sat on the park bench next to the play ground with Kyle. No, we're not being paedophiles, we're here with our younger siblings. Every once in awhile on a nice day Kyle's mom forces him to take Ike to the playground, and I always accompany him with Karen. Some times Craig comes with Ruby, but today is Kevin Stoley's birthday and they've gone to get drunk some where.
This morning one of Kevin's old friends from high school drove him to the clinic in Denver. Blossoming across my cheek is a bruise, a rainbow of purple, blue and even yellow bruising. Kyle and I had a brief discussion about it, cause' I can't expect to walk around with this bad boy and not be questioned. Now we were just relaxing whilst our siblings played.
"So Butters is still grounded?"Kyle sighs scratching his head. "Well I guess we can't all have moms like yours or Craigs..." he leans back on the bench, sunning his face. Craig's mom didn't punish him, she was just 'relieved he didn't get hurt'. I don't get it either.
"My mom doesn't know." I admit. "I had Marnie pick me up."
"Really?" Kyle opens one eye and looks at me. "I'm guessing she wasn't happy with that?"
"No she wasn't. She said she was disappointed in me." I shrug as if I'm not bothered. "She told me to take more responsibility." I snorted.
"And don't you agree?"
I sit up quickly, frowning at the Jew. "What? Kyle I'm one of the most responsible people I know! Look at all the crap I deal with." Kyle shakes his head in obvious disagreement.
"Taking responsibility isn't always about taking charge of everything around you." he replies. "Some times responsibility means for you, looking after yourself. I guess you could also class it as self respect."
"You don't think I look after myself?"
"I don't mean it like that, look at it from the outside view, if you don't watch out for yourself and think about your actions you could end up out of the picture, and who would take responsibility for everything else? Ultimately, you can't do all those things if your not around to."
There's a reason Kyle's one of the smartest kids in school.
"At least you make sense of everything." I mumble leaning back. "But I guess your right, I guess Marnie's right."
"Does this mean your together or something?" Kyle lowers his tone and glances at me curiously. "It just sounds like something off TV, like that film, Knocked Up.' " I laugh dryly.
"No way man, no way." I squint through the suns glare. "Films like that, they glamorize it. And Juno, that makes teen pregnancy seem fun right? Fuck no." I lower my voice too. "Me and Marnie aren't together either, and I already have someone I like."
"Really?" Kyle sits up and smiles cutely. "Who? C'mon you can tell me Kenny." And he's right I can. If there's one person I trust in all of South Park aside from Butters, its Kyle. "You really want to know?" I sigh and Kyle nods. "It's Butters. Butters Stotch is my boyfriend and I don't give a crap what anyone thinks."
Saying that suddenly relieves a heavy load off my chest. I feel lighter and happier already, and I see that Kyle is staring at his knees in deep thought. He clearly doesn't approve.
"Well you know what Kenny?" he looks up and I inhale deeply. "What?"
"That's great, good for you." What? "And you know what else?" Kyle continues. "I'm gay. And I like Stan." Wow.
"That's...big news..." I can't help but grin. "I thought you were going to slate me,"
"And you me." Kyle gives a weak and nervous smile.
"So have you told Stan?" Kyle's face darkens. "Don't get me started." he frowns. "First he tells me he doesn't like me, then he kisses me, and then asks for time alone. Then something happened last night and I did something really stupid..." Reflecting on his last words, Kyle's face tightens and if I'm right he looks like he might cry. Fuck.
"So I only have three to four months left, but time flies." Kyle stares at me from under his lashes. He's grateful I changed the subject. "Yeah, not long." he sits up again and lets out a suppressed sigh. "You excited?" I just wish I'd chosen a different subject.
"No." I admit and suddenly its my turn to feel like I might cry. "I'm fucking terrified."
Nearly there, but I'll most likely time skip again. I'm not an organised person at all so I haven't thought a whole lot about it, but I'm trying to come up with names. So any suggestions from you guys would be great. Thanks!

The renaissance of Myanmar just started and the development of the automotive sector is a fundamental factor on the new pathway. The import of any kind of vehicles was not allowed until 2012 while new vehicles import was banned until 2013. The shift was made possible by the 2011 reforms accompanying the country's shift from military to democratic rule. In the last five year over half a million vehicles had been imported in the country with new vehicles counting less than 1%.

Changes to assessment in the National 5 course from session 2017-18
Changes to assessment in the National 5 course from session 2017-18
Following the Deputy First Minister's announcement that units and unit assessments will be removed from National 5 to Advanced Higher courses, we are strengthening the course assessment to ensure it covers the full content of the course.
The following summary provides a quick look at what is needed to strengthen the course assessment in your National 5 course. These changes will take effect from session 2017-18 onwards. More detailed information will be provided in the revised Course Specifications, which will be available by the end of April 2017.
Changes to coursework:
A new writing assignment will be introduced that will use similar assessment approaches to those currently developed in the National 5 Using Language unit. Candidates will be required to create and submit one piece of writing which will be externally marked by SQA.
The conditions of assessment for the performance: talking component will also be updated to require candidates to discuss a second context in the conversation section.
The writing assignment will be worth 20 marks and will contribute to 12.5% of the course assessment. The performance will be worth 30 marks and will contribute to 25% of the course assessment.
There will be no changes to the exams. The marks and weightings (%) for each question paper will be as follows:
Question paper 1
- Reading – 30 marks, which will contribute to 25% of the course assessment
- Writing – 20 marks, which will contribute to 12.5% of the course assessment
Question paper 2
- Listening – 20 marks, which will contribute to 25% of the course assessment
Reasons for these changes:
These revisions will ensure that the knowledge and skills developed throughout the course will continue to be assessed, following the removal of units.
To recognise the equal status of all four language skills, scaling will be applied to ensure they are given equal weighting.

It follows the tragic case of Deanne Asamoah, 13, who died from an overdose of morphine. She had been caring for her terminally ill mother in Bletchley, Bucks, for four years.
The teenager fell into a coma and died after taking an overdose of the morphine prescribed for her terminally-ill mother.
At the inquest, Thomas Osborne, the deputy coroner for Milton Keynes, recorded a narrative verdict and said that the tragedy was "a cry for attention".
He said he would write to Children's Minister Beverley Hughes asking why hundreds of young people are struggling to cope with such heavy responsibilities. He called for a proper inquiry into the issue.
The girl's mother said her daughter had been forced to care for her because her chemotherapy treatment was so debilitating.
She told the inquest that she was unaware of anything troubling her daughter, the youngest of her four children, other than her usual concerns for the illness and what would happen when she died. In the last year Deanne had joined a local support group for young carers.
The Princess Royal Trust for Carers said it is "very concerned" about thousands of young carers aged under 18 who it says are in a "desperate situation" caring for sick or disabled relatives.
A spokesman for the Trust said the 2001 census showed there are 175,000 young carers of sick and disabled relatives in the UK. This figure does not include child carers of alcoholics or drug addicts.
The trust said that at least 13,000 children, some of them of primary school age, are caring for sick and disabled relatives for more than 50 hours a week.
It believes that a "significant number" of serial truants from school are taking time off for caring duties.
Alex Fox, an assistant director of the Princess Royal Trust for Carers, said: "It should not take a young carer dying for people to get interested in the issue. It should be interesting that so many children are being carers for family members and that so many families are left to rely on their children for care.
"It really should not have to come to that to understand that young carers are taking on the kind of responsibility that we do not think children should have to take on."
Ms Hughes accepted that support for young carers was "not acceptable" in some cases. But she told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the Government had put the needs of such children "in the frame".
"They shouldn't have to miss their childhood. There is support - both from children's services now, which are increasingly integrated and designed to offer a very individualised tailored package up support, and adult services across the piece, whether that's mental health services or adult social care," she said.
"(These) should be combined within local authorities to make sure that every family gets the level of support they need."

Cooking Katy
My name is Katy. Music is my passion but cooking is high on the list. I sell advertising and teach voice on the side. It is hard to find time to cook but I make time for it as often as possible. I love to try new things and make up new recipes. Cooking is alot like performing to me. I create something and am rewarded by the enjoyment that others find in it. There is nothing worse than cooking a fabulous meal and having no one to share it with... well maybe creating a fabulous meal and having someone NOT enjoy it. :)
