We have developed a unique consultative process to help our clients who are recently widowed. The process consists of two parts. The first part is the Transition Management Process which was designed with the help of the Sudden Money Institute. The loss of a spouse is a major change to one's normal life. The experience, or Journey, of each widow is unique. The Journey is a transition from what was, to what will be. A new normal emerges.
The second part of our unique consultative process is the Wealth Management Process. We always begin with a discovery meeting, or a rediscovery meeting if emerging from the transition management process. The discovery process is a in-depth experience. Once we fully understand our client we can successfully coordinate the client's investments with our advanced planning approach.
Through the utilization of the transition management and wealth management processes, we believe we empower our clients by answering the basic questions, like, "Will I have enough?" and empowering them to live a simple and elegant life.
If you are widowed, or are concerned about the impact of the sudden loss of a spouse, we encourage you to call us to schedule a complimentary second opinion of your financial situation. After a discovery meeting, we will either propose for you a transition plan or provide you with a thorough diagnostic of your financial situation.
We only work with clients for whom we can have a significant impact. If we feel we cannot have a significant impact on your situation we will refer you to a more appropriate firm.

Decreased Synaptic Vesicle Recycling Efficiency and Cognitive Deficits in Amphiphysin 1 Knockout Mice

SummaryThe function of the clathrin coat in synaptic vesicle endocytosis is assisted by a variety of accessory factors, among which amphiphysin (amphiphysin 1 and 2) is one of the best characterized. A putative endocytic function of amphiphysin was supported by dominant-negative interference studies. We have now generated amphiphysin 1 knockout mice and found that lack of amphiphysin 1 causes a parallel dramatic reduction of amphiphysin 2 selectively in brain. Cell-free assembly of endocytic protein scaffolds is defective in mutant brain extracts. Knockout mice exhibit defects in synaptic vesicle recycling that are unmasked by stimulation and suggest impairments at multiple stages of the cycle. These defects correlate with increased mortality due to rare irreversible seizures and with major learning deficits, suggesting a critical role of amphiphysin for higher brain functions.

Interaction of yeast Rvs167 and Pho85 cyclin-dependent kinase complexes may link the cell cycle to the actin cytoskeleton
Current Biology, Volume 8, Issue 24, 3 December 1998, Pages 1310
Jinhwa Lee, Karen Colwill, Vicky Aneliunas, Christine Tennyson, Lynda Moore, Yuen Ho and Brenda Andrews
SummaryBackground:PHO85 encodes the catalytic subunit of a cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) in budding yeast and functions in phosphate and glycogen metabolism. Pho85 associated with the G1 cyclins Pcl1 and Pcl2 is also required for cell cycle progression in the absence of the Cdc28 cyclins Cln1 and Cln2. Loss of Pcl1, Pcl2 and related Pho85 cyclins results in budding defects, suggesting that Pcl–Pho85 complexes function in cell morphogenesis early in the cell cycle; their precise role is not clear, however.Results: To identify targets for Pcl–Pho85 kinases, we performed yeast two-hybrid interaction screens using Pcl2 and the related cyclin Pcl9. We identified RVS167, a gene involved in endocytosis, organization of the actin cytoskeleton, and cell survival after starvation. Like rvs167Δ mutants, pho85 mutants or strains deleted for the Pcl1,2-type Pho85 cyclins showed abnormal cell morphology on starvation, sensitivity to salt, random budding in diploids, and defects in endocytosis and in the actin cytoskeleton. Overexpression of Rvs167 in wild-type cells caused morphological abnormalities and growth arrest at high temperatures; these phenotypes were exacerbated by deleting PHO85. Rvs167 has a Src homology 3 (SH3) domain and five potential Pho85 phosphorylation sites; recombinant Rvs167 was phosphorylated by the Pcl2–Pho85 kinase in vitro. Maximal phosphorylation of Rvs167 in vivo required Pho85 and the Pcl1,2-type cyclins.Conclusions: Rvs167 interacts with Pho85 cyclins and is implicated as a target of Pho85 kinases in vivo. Our results identify a connection between Cdks and the actin cytoskeleton; interaction of Rvs167 and Pcl–Pho85 Cdks might contribute to actin cytoskeleton regulation in response to stresses such as starvation.

The amphiphysin family of proteins and their role in endocytosis at the synapse
Trends in Neurosciences, Volume 21, Issue 8, 1 August 1998, Pages 339-344
Patrick Wigge and Harvey T. McMahon
AbstractClathrin-mediated endocytosis at the plasma membrane is a major pathway of synaptic vesicle recycling in neurones, but little is known about the molecular machinery that orchestrates the process. The amphiphysin protein has recently emerged into the limelight since its discovery in 1992 as a synaptic vesicle-associated protein. It was subsequently found to interact in vitro with the GTPase dynamin through its SH3 domain. However, only in the past year has its role in endocytosis been confirmed, with the demonstration that the introduction of dominant-negative-acting SH3 domains into living cells causes a potent blockade of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. This, together with the discovery by several groups of a second nerve terminal-enriched amphiphysin isoform, and the finding that the two proteins heterodimerize, further suggests that the amphiphysins are closely connected with dynamin-mediated vesicle budding. This review summarizes current views in the field, and draws on data that suggest intriguing alternative roles – including possible involvement in the cytoskeleton and in tumour suppression – for certain members of the amphiphysin family.

Endocytosis proteins and cancer: a potential link?
Scott Floyd and Pietro De Camilli*
E-mail: pietro. firstname.lastname@example.com
Recent studies have shown that a variety of proteins participate with clathrin and clathrin adaptors in receptor-mediated endocytosis. The genes encoding some of these proteins are targets of chromosomal rearrangements in human haematopoietic malignancies. In addition, abnormal expression or mutation of some endocytosis proteins has been reported in human cancers. This article discusses these observations and elaborates the potential mechanisms by which the abnormal expression of endocytosis proteins might participate in the biology of cancer.

Just as Hojo asks Kagome for their first date, she has to leave to continue her mission in the Warring States period. With Inu-Yasha and fox-spirit Shippo, she battles demons that recall the spider-monsters in many Kabuki plays. Between battles, Inu-Yasha seems to admit an unexpected affection for Kagome, an admission linked to his demonic powers fading during the dark of the moon. In the multi-part adventure that begins with "Kikyo's Stolen Ashes," the filmmakers presenting conflicting versions of the relationship between Kikyo and Inu-Yasha, Rashomon-style. Did Inu-Yasha love Kikyo and seek the power of the Sacred Jewel to become fully human and live with her? And, more importantly, who betrayed whom, leading to the battle that left Inu-Yasha pinned to a tree by Kikyo's arrow? These intriguing plot twists typify Takahashi's sophisticated story-telling.

2The Time Factor in Land UtilizationThe starting point of the economic teachings concerning land is the distinction between two classes of original factors of production, viz., human and nonhuman factors. As the utilization of the non-human factors is as a rule connected with the power to utilize a piece of the earth, we speak of land when referring to them.4 In dealing with the economic problems of land, i.e., the nonhuman original factors of production, one must neatly separate the praxeological point of view from the cosmological point of view. It may make good sense for cosmology in its study of cosmic events to speak of permanency and of the conservation of mass and energy. If one compares the orbit within which human action is able to affect the natural environmental conditions of human life with the operation of natural entities, it is permissible to call the natural powers indestructible and permanent or—more precisely—safe against destruction by human action. For the great periods of time to which cosmology refers, soil erosion (in the broadest sense of the term) of such an intensity as can be effected by human interference is of no importance. Nobody knows today whether or not cosmic changes will in millions of years transform deserts and barren soil into land that from the point of view of our present-day knowledge will have to be described as extremely fertile and the most luxuriant tropical gardens into sterile land. Precisely because nobody can anticipate such changes nor venture to influence the cosmic events which possibly could bring them about, it is supererogatory to speculate about them in dealing with the problems of human action.5 The natural sciences may assert that those powers of the soil that condition its serviceableness for forestry, cattle breeding, agriculture, and water utilization regenerate themselves periodically. It may be true that even human endeavors deliberately directed toward the utmost devastation of the productive capacity of the earth's crust could at best succeed only with regard to small parts of it. But these facts do not strictly count for human action. The periodical regeneration of the soil's productive powers is not a rigid datum that would face man with a uniquely determined situation. It is possible to use the soil in such a way that this regeneration is slowed down and postponed or the soil's productive power either vanishes altogether for a definite period of time or can be restored only by means of a considerable input of capital and labor. In dealing with the soil man has to choose between various methods different from one another with regard to the preservation and regeneration of its productive power. No less than in any other branch of production, the time factor enters also into the conduct of hunting, fishing, grazing, cattle breeding, plant growing, lumbering and water utilization. Here too man must choose between satisfaction in nearer and in more remote periods of the future. Here too the phenomenon of originary interest, entailed in every human action, plays its paramount role. There are institutional conditions that cause the persons involved to prefer satisfaction in the nearer future and to disregard entirely or almost entirely satisfaction in the more distant future. If the soil is on the one hand not owned by individual proprietors and on the other hand all, or certain people favored by special privilege or by the actual state of affairs, are free to make use of it temporarily for their own benefit, no heed is paid to the future. The same is the case when the proprietor expects that he will be expropriated in a not too distant future. In both cases the actors are exclusively intent upon squeezing out as much as possible for their immediate advantage. They do not concern themselves about the temporally more remote consequences of their methods of exploitation. Tomorrow does not count for them. The history of lumbering, hunting, and fishing provides plenty of illustrative experience; but many examples can also be found in other branches of soil utilization. From the point of view of the natural sciences, the maintenance of capital goods and the preservation of the powers of the soil belong to two entirely different categories. The produced factors of production perish sooner or later entirely in the pursuit of production processes, and piecemeal are transformed into consumers' goods which are eventually consumed. If one does not want to make the results of past saving and capital accumulation disappear, one must, apart from consumers' goods, also produce the amount of capital goods which is needed for the replacement of those worn out. If one were to neglect this, one would finally consume, as it were, the capital goods. One would sacrifice the future to the present; one would live in luxury today and be in want later. But, it is often said, it is different with the powers of land. They cannot be consumed. Such a statement is meaningful, however, only from the point of view of geology. But from the geological point of view one could, or should, no less deny that factory equipment or a railroad can be "eaten up." The gravel and stones of a railroad's substructure and the iron and steel of the rails, bridges, cars, and engines do not perish in a cosmic sense. Only from the praxeological point of view is it permissible to speak of the consumption, the eating up, of a tool, a railroad, or a steel mill. In the same economic sense we speak of the consumption of the productive powers of the soil. In forestry, agriculture, and water utilization these powers are dealt with in the same way as other factors of production. With regard to the powers of the soil, too, the actors must choose between processes of production which render higher output at the expense of productivity in later periods and processes which do not impair future physical productivity. It is possible to extract so much from the soil that its later utilization will render smaller returns (per unit of the quantities of capital and labor employed) or practically no returns at all. It is true that there are physical limits to the devastating powers of man. (These limits are sooner reached in lumbering, hunting, and fishing than in tilling the soil.) But this fact results only in a quantitative, not in a qualitative difference between capital decumulation and soil erosion. Ricardo calls the powers of the soil "original and indestructible."6 However, modern economics must stress the point that valuation and appraisement do not differentiate between original and produced factors of production and that the cosmological indestructibility of mass and energy, whatever it may mean, does not enjoin upon land utilization a character radically different from other branches of production. [4. ]Legal provisions concerning the separation of the right of hunting, fishing, and extracting mineral deposits from the other rights of the owner of a piece of land are of no interest for catallactics. The term land as used in catallactics includes also expanses of water. [5. ]Thus also the problem of entropy stands outside the sphere of praxeological meditation.

Does the E grade work? by Sarah StirlingThe British E grade system is unique. Some argue it's the best in the world, giving more information than any others with its double-barrelled descriptives. True, for well-established routes it works like a charm but does it start to wobble when addressing cutting edge routes? A system designed for the on-sight ethic, it doesn't lend itself to grading after roped practice, leading to genuine mistakes. With the importance of sponsorship to the modern climber, the deep-rooted British attitude held up by some and the massive increase in 'who was first?' reporting, these grade mistakes are more in the public eye than ever before. E12 Poster at Awesome Walls, Stockport UKC Articles © UKC News The Sheffield Adventure Film Festival will bring together a bunch of Britain's leading climbers to discuss the situation on Sunday, 5pm at the Sheffield Showroom. I caught up with these climbers to find out whether the Great British Grade Debate was likely to be a civilised affair, with everyone delighting in shared E grade opinions, or whether the discussion would spark major disagreement and descend into a monkey's tea party. More to the point: what if they all agreed the E grade doesn't work? Could the Great British Grade Debate change climbing history? WHO SHOULD HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO GRADE A ROUTE?Neil Gresham, John Dunne and James Pearson UKC News © Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com "I think we need to work out where or who the authority for grading routes comes from," says James Pearson." James is eager to talk about E grades. Relieved even. I get the impression that, as an up-and-coming professional climber, he would both like to modernise the British grading system and have the comfort of some safe, defined boundaries. "At the moment," James continues, "grades given by certain climbers have more weight than others. Whether a given grade is accepted or not seems to depend somewhat on who is in vogue." After 20 years at the forefront of British climbing, John Dunne has a better idea than most how the British grading system works. And, he'll admit, he's a little cynical about modern route grading. He thinks some climbers like or need to be in vogue. "Do some climbers grade routes to get attention to please the media and their sponsors, or do they actually believe their grades are accurate?" he queries. "I think this E12 business needs bringing into check." Although he's climbed plenty of trad in his time, Steve McClure isn't a fan of Peak grit and is best known for pushing the limits of British sport routes. "I'd like to get the real trad climbers at the top talking about grade compression and the fact that our advances are tiny," he says. "We had UK 7a about 20 years ago, people still won't give anything 7b now and everything is E8 or E9 maximum: also ancient. Have we not progressed at all? Maybe we haven't!" Of all the climbers who will take part in the Grade Debate, Nic Sellars comes across as the one who most thinks E grading is a hole-riddled system. If a climber wants the limelight, he points out; it's in his or her interest to overgrade. "A route might get graded with massive fanfare in 1995 and two years later is massively downgraded," he says. "However, this is only shown quietly in guidebooks. I think there should be more of a consensus: a route shouldn't be graded until it has had a few ascents." HOW SHOULD YOU GRADE A ROUTE?Nic Sellers, Heart of Gold, Red Walls (during the 3 hour dry spell on Sunday) UKC News, Aug 2007 © Alex Messenger "Personally," says John Dunne, when I ask him this, "I grade everything on what it would be like if it was bolted, and then think: what would happen if there were no bolts and you fell off?" Dave Birkett will be bringing the Lakeland perspective to the debate table in Sheffield. Routes are a bit longer where he comes from, and he thinks grading complications arise when comparing different venues. "You can have experience grading things on small outcrops," he says, "but then, when you go to a bigger venue the intimidation is a lot greater. How do you grade for that?" I can't answer that. "No," he agrees, satisfied that he's made his point. "Well, we've been arguing about these things for 50 years." James Pearson hasn't been arguing about these things for 50 years (I don't think Dave Birkett has either, actually, as he's 39). James is 21, but he's clearly given the matter of route-grading some serious thought over his short but brilliant climbing career. "Personal experience affects how climbers perceive a grade," he says thoughtfully. "Some people are affected by exposure more than others. All points of view are valid. How do you define the average climber? It's hard enough to work out how a route feels for you, let alone define it in terms of the average climber on the average day. It's a mine field," he sighs. John Dunne, on the other hand, has been grading routes for many years and he's come to the conclusion that, in many ways, trying to do so is an utterly pointless endeavour. "A 100m race is a 100m race but what is one grade for a 6'2" climber is not the same for someone who is 5"5'," he explains. "And I can't comprehend Ryan Pasquil doing those moves so how can anyone else, even if you could define it with a grade? You just can't rationalise climbing like you can other sports." Steve McClure, though, is quite clear about the answer of how you grade a route. Apparently, the solution lies across the pond in Europe.
"You grade a route on the experience you had on it, related to the experience you've had on other routes. You might get it a bit wrong but that's alright as long as you're honest. That's key," he says. "It often takes several climbers to try a route to get the grade exactly right. In Europe that's the norm and climbers don't get slated if they grade routes wrongly!" SHOULD YOU QUOTE FRENCH GRADES AFTER E GRADES?Dave Birkett committed on the onsight of My Piano E8 6c - Nesscliffe, taken from the forthcoming climbing flick 'On Sight'. Alastair Lee, May 2008 © Tristan Johnson/Posing Productions.com Whereas E grades denote the hardest move, French grades assess the sum difficulty of a route and the length of the climb. Grades start at 1 and the system is open-ended. The question of whether quoting French grades after E grades simplifies or over-complicates British routes divides our climbing community. Dave Birkett is fine with borrowing from the French. "There isn't a better system in the world than using the E grade and technical grade with a French grade next to it," he says, firmly. "Some E7s are harder than others. If you know a route is French 7a and E7, you know it's scary and you might kill yourself." "I don't know about that," says John Dunne. "You could tell climbers where to put wires in as well but wouldn't that ruin the route? And what is Font 7c for one person is 8a for another if they can't reach a hold. That could throw in more problems for the climber than it fixes." Steve McClure thinks the problem lies solely with upper E grades. "The British technical grade has been abused above 6a for a long time, maybe irretrievably," he says. "Hardly surprising really as it purports to assess the hardest move and nobody can even agree on what constitutes a move! I think guidebooks will soon start adding French grading, and it will be whole-heartedly accepted." James Pearson disagrees. "It's useful to have a French grade as well as a British one to go on, but I think it's too much information to put in a guidebook," he says. Over the last 20 years, John Arran has climbed all over the world, establishing himself as one of Britain's best all round climbers. He firmly believes the E grade is fine as it is. "British trad is a game that needs its own measures," he says. "The E grade is the best trad grade in the world. It aint broke and it doesn't need fixing."
SHOULD WE DITCH E GRADES FOR THE EWBANK GRADE SYSTEM?Rum Grit (E7) headpoint. The single piece of gear is stacked wires in a sandy pocket UKC Articles © John Arran Collection The Ewbank system is used in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Routes are graded from 1 (which you should be able to walk up, in theory) upwards. Full route descriptions are included in guidebooks. Dave Birkett is whole-heartedly against the idea of borrowing the Antipodean grading system. "The British system is by far the better system," he says. "An Australian route graded at 25 can be death all the way or have one hard move and be basically safe." Nic Sellars explains that, with the Ewbank system, the guidebook description mentions all the factors affecting a climber's experience, including exposure, difficulty of setting protection and lack of protection. He thinks the Australians might be onto a winner. "An Australian 25 might be straightforward or very insecure and much harder," he says, "but you know it's harder because it has a reputation and a history and that's written in the guidebook. In Britain we try to encapsulate all that information in a grade and it doesn't always work." John Arran disagrees. He thinks there's strength in numbers and we have more of them than the Ozzies: "The British system is one of the best around if you know how to use it. The Australian system is a number and ours is two, so it's obviously better: it gives more information."
And, with youthful acceptance, James Pearson stands back and looks at the bigger grading picture. "Every climbing grade system across the globe has its positives and negatives," he says. "Generally, a climbing system that has been developed for an area works in that area. There are bits of other systems that would work well in ours." THE ON-SIGHT QUESTIONThe British system is completely upside down to the Australian system: they offer full route information as standard; we grade for the on-sight. However, hard British routes are often practiced on a top-rope before they are finally sent and ... graded for the on-sight. How does that work? Nic Sellars doesn't think it does work: "If you've spent eight days working a route how can you give it a grade?" he asks. "And it's so hard to define on-sight, too – if you've seen a video or a photo then you've had a clue." John Arran suggests giving a separate grade for headpoint ascents. "After all, there are better grades than the E grade for highball problems and sport routes," he says.
In order for route grades to have any sort of validity, James Pearson thinks there needs to be a universally accepted definition of what on-sight and headpoint are. "At the moment, different people apply grades in different ways for different styles of ascents," he says. "If this can be rectified, I feel everything else will be a little less murky." HOW IMPORTANT ARE GRADES, ANYWAY?Jack Geldard past the crux on Surgical Lust. © Posing Productions, Feb 2009 Nic Sellars is all in favour of grades. "I think they are what define your enjoyment and satisfaction of a route," he says. "If they get skewed then climbing falls apart." "Grades are very important," agrees Steve McClure, "because they help climbers choose whether they're going to enjoy a challenge or a nice day out. People becoming obsessed by grades is the only downfall." It's all too easy for top climbers to become grade-obsessed, thinks John Dunne: "The big problem is that the media and the sponsors just want to know about grades," he says. James Pearson thinks it would be nice if we could all forget about grades sometimes: "It seems there is too much emphasis put on the grading system when in reality it should just be another guide – something to take into account when choosing a route," he says.
Dave Birkett agrees and thinks it's important to be able to work outside the grade: "You also need to be able to use natural intelligence and experience to gage a route," he says. "Numbers don't always help." DOES THE E GRADE SYSTEM NEED CHANGING?Which climbers want to keep the E grade in its quirky entirety, who thinks it needs a tweak and does anyone think it should be ditched altogether? James Pearson thinks we need a modern, official definition of how a route should be graded so all climbers can work off the same page. "In the last ten years, route climbing technique has changed and styles have broadened," he explains. John Dunne agrees with James that some changes are needed. "A shake up of the British grading system could be beneficial," he says, "but a lot of people would have to take a big whack to their egos in order for it to work." "90-something percent of climbers are happy with the British grading system," argues John Arran, "And it's all a storm in a teacup that the E grade needs changing." Nic Sellars gives the question some serious thought. "There is so much history behind our system and we are just one generation of climbers," he says. "Do we have the right to change the British grading system? It would be like changing from the Pound to the Euro and losing all the faces on the coins and notes." I'm musing what a lovely and apt analogy that is when he adds, "Anyway, there would be a massive uproar if the E grade had to be changed and I wouldn't want to go to all the conferences." He ponders some more. "But then, the E grade isn't the best system in the world. Perhaps we are too conservative." An air of finality comes into his voice and he stamps his final words with decision: "Yeah, OK: I think the E grade should be changed."

The hotel does not have a full spa, but does provide a limited menu of spa services and an on-site sauna. Rooms are sleek and modern, and come equipped with spacious bathrooms, flat-screen TVs, media hubs for electronics hookups, and coffeemakers.

Pickup truck sought in Sandown hit-and-run
The teen, whose name police are not releasing at this time, suffered minor injuries and was treated at the scene.
Sgt. Aurie Roy said the incident happened about 7:50 p.m. as the children were walking near 409 Main St., the northern side of Route 121A.
Roy said the younger boy told police he remembered hearing a loud vehicle coming just before the 13-year-old boy was hit by the mirror of a pickup truck.
Police are looking for a white or silver pickup truck, possibly with a loud exhaust, with a damaged side mirror which fled the scene. Investigators recovered parts from the truck mirror at the scene.
Anyone with information about the truck or the incident is asked to call police at 887-3887 or Rockingham County Dispatch at 679-2225.

Halle Berry says it point blank ... her daughter is Black -- a direct message to her ex Gabriel Aubry who, according to sources, "went nuts" anytime someone called Nahla Black.
Halle says in an upcoming interview with EBONY magazine, "I feel she's Black. I'm Black and I'm her mother, and I believe in the one-drop theory." The one-drop rule was used during segregation to describe anyone who wasn't 100% Caucasian.
As TMZ first reported, sources connected with the former couple say Gabriel insists Nahla is White.
Truth is, they're both sorta right ... and both sorta wrong.
So, we gotta ask ...
The kind of racist bigotry that Halle Berry has doesn't ever go away, it's rooted deep in hatred that does not ever end. I'd imagine she has many supporters.
Halle's mother is white, and father is black, so does that make Halle white? No, it makes her mixed. Their daughter's father is white, and Halle is half white, so the baby is more white then black, but she is still MIXED.
I can't stand Halle. She's so over rated. She's not attractive and she's so proud of being "black" when she isn't even black.
She is mostly white but has a little black. Just say she is mixed. You can't really say she is one or the other, because she isn't. She can decide when she is older how she wants to refer to herself, either white black or mixed. Why do people over complicate this? It's really pretty straight forward.
Many of you may ask why soes she consider herslef African / Black, well, Black is dominant number 1, number 2 she is not a caucasian and can not identify with any other culture other than Black culture. However, if we are to be true...
all other 'races' are but diluted variations of the Black African race family
Halle must play with the white supremacist paridigm 'one drop rukle' because in some aspects it is true, yet in other it is not.
If your mother is not Black and your father is not Black then you are not Black.
White is negated in presence of Blackness.
Posted at 3:10 AM on Feb 8, 2011 by Nubian King
Not impressed with your reasoning for bigotry. If I do it you'll have me chained but if Halle Berry does it then you celebrate her. Why don't you stop all together. If you want to "heal" the people of Africa then you should go there and do it. There are millions of people dying in Africa every year. Millions of people being killed by Africans. You just do something about that instead of spreading your racial hatred.
Why does it have to be about race? Why isn't it good enough that the child is loved by both parents? Funny that race wasn't a factor until Gabriel wanted joint custody.
You are so off base trying to say your baby is black when she is so obviously mixed racial, as are you.
I am so disappointed in you. I really thought you was a maverick ambassador for racial equality!!! But somehow you have been derailed and lost the reality that we all are equal regardless of skin color.
Give everyone a chance and they will excel.
Halle Berry the racist bigot. It's a terrible thing.

It's very interesting when "misinformed" trolls attempt to "stir the pot" which is probably why Halle Berry attempted to settle her differences with Gabriel Aubrey privately. Now, it's up to the court to sort out Nahla's future which is probably for the best because they'll have access to considerably more evidence than the media or general public.
If I'm not mistaken, It was Halle's mother who encouraged her to acknowledge the realities of her biracial heritage. She has never impressed me as being "ashamed" of her parentage. She's only embracing the reality in which she's experienced. Just because her daughter has a much "lighter" complexion, doesn't mean she won't have to deal with the ugliness of racism.
Posted at 2:53 AM on Feb 8, 2011 by Sincerity
It's sad that their daughter will deal with racism from both white and black people.

This is about a little girl who was conceived and brought into this world out of love!
Both of these parents and their handlers need to get a grip and STOP TALKING!
Posted at 2:59 AM on Feb 8, 2011 by Grandma of Four
"Love" is not required to procreate.
I know other people have said this, but it needs to be reitterated: Gabriel hasn't publically said a word, so people shouldn't be saying that *both* sides need to shut up. Halle needs to shut up. Just Halle.
It's sickening how she's making all of this public, and it's obvious what her motives are. Most people would work hard to keep all this private, but her arrogance is making her think that the public would automatically side with her.
I hope she reads these message boards and sees just how despicable everyone here thinks she is!
obviously the child is mixed race
halle berry herself isnt even 100% african american black
so at most the baby is 25% blackblack, as the father is caucasion and the mother is mix race herself
tiger woods isnt black, he is mix, his mother is thai!!
you might as well say kanye west is white because his great great grandmother was mix, so one drop etc etc
and we all come from adam and eve, and they was white folk, right? so we all one drop white
cos adam ask god, are we white or black, and god said u r what u r
adam told eve we are white
if we was black, god be telling us "you is what you is"
thanks, i be here all week :-D

You can call me a troll all day but it does not change the fact that Halle Berry is a racist bigot. You might not understand how or why but that's just a sign of your own ignorance.
The hatred Halle Berry has for people that look different from her has nothing to do with anyone but her. When you allow he to be racist and encourage her racism you're only hurting yourself.
Something you Americans don't get is that Canadians don't care for such labels. We are some of the most tolerant people you'll come across (multiculturalism is a huge part of the Canadian identity). Yes, it's not a black or white thing.
I myself am a Metis (French-Canadian/First Nations) and my wife is Korean, not that these are labels we care much about. Our son gets that he's both Canadian and Korean, but more importantly he gets that he's an individual. I'm sure their kids are equally self-aware.
Again, we Canadians don't really care for such labels.
That's probably a huge part of why he's opposed to them being labeled "black", as I'm sure he'd be opposed to them being labeled "white".
As for Halle Berry...To make such a statement is such a very American thing to do.
So, if Halle Berry has one drop of "black blood" in her, she's black? What a tom crow attitude. And, for her to say "my child is black" just shows how stupid she truly is. She should stick to pretending to act (Catwoman, anyone?) & just shut up...
You really have to wonder if Halle would be this stupid if she was 100% white. j/k....kinda.
The one drop rule is as racist as any racist faction can dictate. It is a stupid ignorant realization of the fact when two races of any ethnicity's procreation will result is a mixed race. Therefore they will be a mixed race!!

Kennedys open up for TV documentary on RFK's widow
- Tweet
- Share this
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The Kennedys may be America's most famous political dynasty, but it took one of their own to get them to open up about their private lives and their place in U.S. history.
Filmmaker Rory Kennedy, 43, the youngest of the 11 children of slain U.S. Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and his wife, Ethel, persuaded her mother to give her first extended interview in more than 20 years for an upcoming HBO documentary that is also the first film about the Kennedys to come from within the family.
Even so, it wasn't easy. "Why should I have to answer all these questions?" Ethel Kennedy, 84, asks her daughter early in the film. "All this introspection. I hate it!"
"Ethel," to be shown on HBO in October, brings together rarely seen home video, photos, TV footage and anecdotes from several of the children of Ethel and Robert Kennedy.
It traces the couple's early courtship, life at home filled with dogs, horses and even a pet seal, and the political careers of President John F. Kennedy and Robert, who served as his brother's attorney general. Both were killed by assassins.
"I didn't really want to do it mostly for personal reasons. I didn't want to ask my mother and my siblings to go through some of the difficult moments that have been part of our history," Rory Kennedy told television journalists on Wednesday.
"As a family generally we don't dwell on the past, at least publicly. And as a family, we are not a share-all family," she said.
Rory Kennedy, who was born six months after her father's death in June 1968, said she was persuaded by friends at HBO to do the film, and by the agreement of her mother and siblings.
Asked where she drew her strength after her husband's assassination in Los Angeles while running for president, less than five years after the November 22, 1963, assassination of his older brother, Ethel credited her children and her Roman Catholic faith.
"When we lost Bobby, I would wake up and think, it's OK, he's in heaven, he's with Jack. So it made it easy to get through the day," she said.
The film also reveals Ethel's mischievous side, In her younger days, she earned speeding tickets and pushed members of John F. Kennedy's Cabinet into the family swimming pool at parties.
Her children also recall how on a visit to FBI headquarters in the 1960s, when J.Edgar Hoover was in charge, Ethel Kennedy dropped a cheeky suggestion in the organization's public suggestion box, "Get a new director."
"It was rude and I apologize," Ethel quipped on Wednesday.
"Ethel" will air on HBO on October 18.

March 1 2014 BOOKLIST
January 2014
Titles similar to Sunrise over Fallujah
Myers earned a Coretta Scott King award for Fallen Angels (1988), about Richie, a young, black soldier who faces confusing missions, enemies indistinguishable from civilians, and a country that resents its so-called liberators. That book dealt with Vietnam, but the same description applies to this moving companion, set in Iraq. Narrated by Richie's nephew, Robin, this novel plunges readers into Operation Iraqi Freedom. The violence encountered by Robin's supposedly low-risk, mixed-gender Civil Affairs team demolishes expectations of a "textbook war" and leaves the recent enlistee burdened with anxiety, as if "every gun had an eye on the end that was looking for [him]." Such remarks are emblematic of the spare, authentic power of Myers' writing, which reveals both the universal emotions of warfare and its contemporary specifics—from embedded reporters to women warriors (one of whom experiences an attempted rape). Unfortunately, readers learn more about the situation than about Robin himself, who tends to be upstaged by his vibrant supporting cast. Another weak point is a melodramatic, heavily foreshadowed tragedy at the book's climax. Even so, this offers a compelling, close-up look at a war that has raged for a large percentage of teens' lives, and together, this novel and Fallen Angels deliver a searing statement about how the lessons of history go unheeded as the fog of war envelops generation after generation. A new paperback edition of Fallen Angels will build interest in both books; recommenders should note that the language and violence in the earlier title are markedly more graphic.

Burda Magazine, 1/2010, model 123.
Simple jacket, fitted with darts, originally tied with belt, but I've added big hooks and eyes instead. The lapels seem to be a little bit too wide, especially when it's windy (like almost every day here), and you are trying to take a picture;)
wool blend, cotton fabric as a bodice lining, some slippery lining fabric for sleeves, hooks and eyes
Feb 7, 2012, 09.54 AMby buddingnaturalist
Love the fabric and cut. The hook attachements suit it quite well. I never thought of using those-I'll keep this in mind.

and because its way out of date in terms of camera support and pretty buggy not to mention Corel's apparent lack of interest.

I think it's fine for us to fight for our viewpoint during the primaries but then we must unite behind the winners, wholeheartedly, no matter how disappointed we might be having lost in the primary, remembering that the ultimate goal is defeating the Democrat.
Am in agreement with Dr. Sowell's analysis which is shared by many other thoughtful senior conservative pundits. But the point is that we lose nothing by having Cruz and Lee and other members of the Tea Party faction of our party (so to speak) push forcefully to Defund ObamaCare. We all agree the program is an abomination, we only differ in how to take it apart and our dispute is bringing it to the attention of the electorate in indelible fashion. Whether we defund now or later or simply "delay" which is the preference of many, ObamaCare and its supporters are coming off far the worse in this fracas.
I've come into this discussion late but how can you include hate speech like Jevica and #2, how can Jews continue to vote for a creep and anti-Semite like Obumble and his equally corrupt and socialist Democratic minions?
The Count
Marco Rubio was born in Miami, FL on May 28, 1971 and is therefore qualified to be president of the US, you should look it up before making statements to the contrary, people.
1000% percent wrong, Kimberley. Find other reasons to oppose Rubio, this isn't one of them. He was born in this country and is therefore qualified to be president, look it up.

Men's Lacrosse Clashes With Visiting Hartford Saturday at 1 pm
Bearcats (5-5, 1-1 AE) and Hawks (5-5, 1-1 AE) jockey for position in conference standings
April 11, 2013
Contact: Mike Porter (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Vestal, NY—
Teams: Hartford (5-5, 1-0 AE) at Binghamton (5-5, 1-1 AE)
When: Saturday, April 13 (1 pm)
Venue: Bearcats Sports Complex (Vestal, NY)
All-Time Series: Binghamton leads 8-3
Last Matchup: Hartford won 11-7 (April 14, 2012)
Setting The Scene
The Bearcats head into Saturday riding the momentum of their biggest win of the season to date, a thrilling 14-13 OT victory over Stony Brook last weekend. Trailing 13-4, Stony Brook wound up tying the game with just under a minute left in regulation, and later forced the game to a sudden death overtime period. In the overtime, junior Michael Antinozzi stepped up and ended the game off a 10 yard strike, giving BU their first victory over the Seawolves since 2005. Fellow junior Matt Springer scored a career-high six goals, improving his total to 23 this season. He becomes the first player in BU history to have three straight seasons with 20+ goals. Senior Tyler Perrelle had a big afternoon in the midfield, scoring a goal and three assists. With his second assist Saturday, he became the program's leader in career assists, beating out Chris Mulheron's record set back in 2009. Junior Alex Doerflein won 19-of-31 faceoffs against the Seawolves, picked up 13 ground balls and added a goal for the Bearcats who improve to 2-3 on the road this season.
After falling on the road 24-11 to conference leaders 12th ranked Albany, Hartford bounced back with a gritty 8-7 win over Dartmouth on Tuesday. Senior midfielder Garrett Dollard provided the fireworks, scoring a game-winning goal with just 15.6 seconds remaining to deliver the non-conference win. Dollard scored a team-high two goals as six others entered the score sheet for the Hawks. Junior goalie Frank Piechota had a terrific outing between the pipes, stopping 15 shots on the afternoon. Freshman Jack Bobzien leads the team with 35 points this season and is ranked fifth nationally with 2.70 assists per game. Both Kevin O'Shea and Andrew Cacchio are tied for the team-lead in goals with 16 apiece. As a team, Hartford enters Saturday's matchup having scored an average of 9.80 goals per game.
Offense Shines In The Win
Binghamton's 14 goals on Saturday is their best offensive output of the 2013 season. The Bearcats also recorded a team-best shooting percentage of .318 against the Seawolves; their highest since April 28, 2012 against UMBC. On Saturday, they had four separate 3-0 runs that catapulted them to a 13-4 lead halfway through the third quarter. A season-high seven different players scored for BU on their way to totaling 20 points on the afternoon.
Playing Extra Minutes
Since 2004, Binghamton is 7-5 (.583) in overtime games. Their thrilling 14-13 OT win on Saturday marks the first win since April 2, 2011 in extra time when they completed a terrific comeback over Vermont, scoring the game's last five goals, including Matt Springer's winner with under a minute left in the first overtime. Three players on this year's roster (Michael Antinozzi, Matt Springer and Tyler Perrelle) have scored game winning OT goals. All-time, BU is 4-3 versus fellow America East schools in sudden death situations.
Springer Approaches Yet Another Milestone
Junior attack Matt Springer is just two points shy of hitting 100 career points for his career. He would become the second player in school history, and interestingly enough the second player this season to hit this mark, joining teammate Tyler Perrelle who stands atop the career list with 107 points. With his six goals Saturday, he now has 81 goals and 17 assists in just 38 games played in a Binghamton uniform.
History of Beating The Hawks
Binghamton is 8-3 all-time versus Hartford since 2002, including seven wins in their last eight meetings. Last season, the Hawks snapped a seven-game losing streak with their 11-7 victory in West Hartford, but its been Binghamton who has owned the series historically. The Bearcats are 4-0 all-time at home against their fellow America East competitor and last beat the Hawks in April of 2011, when Hartford made an improbable run to the NCAA tournament on a last second goal over Stony Brook in the America East Championship game. Springer has been a standout versus Hartford in the past, scoring four goals twice in wins in 2010 and 2011.
Man-Down Defense: 0.842 (3rd)
Man-up Offense: 0.429 (10th)
