Mother, son killed in Ridgefield house fire
The pastor met with the surviving family members at the hospital on Saturday and said they remain overcome with grief. But he told them the family can lean on the parish.
"My heart and the entire heart of the parish go out to them and are with them," Gargiulo said. "We're going to support them and be with them whatever they need. I know the entire town of Ridgefield is rallying behind us."
Today will be a difficult day for the parish, he said.
"At this point what comes to my mind right now is that we have to lean on each other, hug and hold one another and ultimately we depend on God's grace," Gargiulo said. "There are things that happen in life that we can't always control. I don't believe God has a hand in this but has a hand in helping us get through it."
The medical center where Jeralyn Scibetta worked was reeling with the news of her death on Saturday.
"We are deeply grieving this horrific tragedy and our thoughts and prayers are with her family," said Bruce J. Markowitz, the hospital's president. "She was a valued, respected and loved member of our hospital family."
Councilman Russell Castelli, the fire commissioner, said he's known the family for 20 years. He described them as being very involved in the town.
"My heart goes out to them," he said.
Florine Pfeifer lives in a house on Elm Street behind the burned home.
"I just can't get myself together now," she said of the tragedy. "It's like a dark cloud going over. It's a terrible death. With the rest of the family and what they have to go through, my heart breaks for them."
The church is accepting donations such as food and clothing for the family. They can be dropped off at St. James' Episcopal Church, 514 Abbott Ave., Ridgefield, or by calling the parish at 201-945-0079.

YAJL (Yet Another JSON Library) is a small event-driven (SAX-style) JSON parser written in ANSI C, and a small validating JSON generator. It's highly portable, data representation independent, fast, generates verbose error messages including context of where the error occurs in the input text, can parse JSON data incrementally off a stream, and is tiny.
Clover is a Java code coverage analysis tool. Key features include per-test code coverage, test optimization (aka selective testing), interactive and historical HTML reporting, IDE integration with Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, RAD, and NetBeans. It also works with Ant, Maven, and other command line tools.
myPatterns is a lightweight library implementing pattern matching of arbitrary data structures (not just strings) in concrete syntax notations. Default notations such as JSON are pre-defined, but users can override them with new, customized notations for their data. myPatterns is available for C and JavaScript developers, and has already been integrated with querying tools such as JSLINQ and JSONQuery.
Jolokia is a fresh way of accessing JMX MBeans remotely. It is different from JSR-160 connectors, as it is an agent based approach that uses JSON over HTTP for its communication. It provides new features for JMX remoting: bulk requests allow for multiple JMX operations with a single remote server roundtrip, there is a fine-grained security mechanism for restricting JMX access on specific JMX operations, JSR-160 proxy mode, and history tracking, to name a few. Jolokia's origins are in jmx4perl. Client bindings in addition to Perl have already been added, and more are planned.
The Java Simple Plugin Framework is a framework for creating and using plugins for programs written in Java. It was built to reduce development time while increasing code maintainability of small to medium sized projects. It completely hides the implementation details of components, so you only use their interfaces. It is only 590k in size. Components may be loaded with only two lines of code. It makes heavy use of annotations. Through usage of generics, it is usually type safe. There are additional plugins to export other plugins by JavaScript, JSON, LipeRMI, XMLRPC, Delight XMLRPC, or ERMI. Plugins may be discovered on the local network through ZeroConf. There is initial support for RDF.

Geographic distribution of the Mongolic languages
The Mongolic languages are a group of languages spoken in East-Central Asia, mostly in Mongolia and surrounding areas plus in Kalmykia. The best-known member of this language family, Mongolian, is the primary language of most of the residents of Mongolia and the Mongolian residents of Inner Mongolia, China with an estimated 5.2 million speakers.[1] Some linguists have grouped Mongolic with Turkic, Tungusic and possibly Korean and Japonic as part of a larger Altaic family.[2]
- Middle Mongol (depending on classification spoken from the 13th until the early 15th[3] or late 16th century[4] - given the almost entire lack of written sources for the period in-between, an exact cut-off point cannot be established)
- Classical Mongolian
Contemporary Mongolic:
- Dagur (=Daur) (ca. 100,000 speakers)
- Central Mongolic
- Khamnigan (c. 2000 speakers)
- Buryat (dialects: Bargu, Khori, Aga, Ekhirit, Unga, Nizhne-Udinsk, Barguzin, Tunka, Oka, Alar, Bohaan, Bulagat) (c. 300,000 speakers)
- Mongolian proper (including Khalkha basically in Mongolia and Chakhar, Khorchin, Kharchin, Baarin, Shilin gol in Inner Mongolia) (ca. 5–6 m. speakers)
- Ordos (ca. 100,000 speakers)
- Oirat (varieties: Torgut, Dörbet, Olot (Ööld, Elyut, Eleuth), Zakhchin, Mingat, Bayad, Kalmyk, Khoshut (Khoshuud), Alasha) (c. 300,000 speakers)
- Southern Mongolic (part of a Gansu–Qinghai Sprachbund)
- Eastern Yugur (Shira Yugur) (c. 3000 speakers)
- Shirongolic
- Moghol (=Mogholi) (unclear whether there are speakers left)
The classification and speaker numbers above follow Janhunen (2006)[5] except for Southern Mongolic which follows Nugteren (2011).[6] In another classificational approach,[7] there is a tendency to call Central Mongolian a language consisting of Mongolian proper, Oirat and Buryat, while Ordos (and implicitly also Khamnigan) is seen as a variety of Mongolian proper. Within Mongolian proper, they then draw a distinction between Khalkha on the one hand and Southern Mongolian (containing everything else) on the other hand. A less common subdivision of Central Mongolian is to divide it into a Central dialect (Khalkha, Chakhar, Ordos), an Eastern dialect (Kharchin, Khorchin), a Western dialect (Oirat, Kalmyk), and a Northern dialect (consisting of two Buryat varieties).[8] The broader delimitation of Mongolian may be based on mutual intelligibility, but an analysis based on a tree diagram such as the one above faces other problems due to the close contacts between e.g. Buryat and Khalkha Mongols during history thus creating or preserving a dialect continuum. Another problem lies in the sheer comparability of terminology as Western linguists use language and dialect, while Mongolian linguists use the Grimmian trichotomy language (kele), dialect (nutuγ-un ayalγu) and Mundart (aman ayalγu).
Proto-Mongolic, the ancestor language of the modern Mongolic languages, is very close to Middle Mongol, the language spoken at the time of Genghis Khan and the Mongol Empire. Most features of modern Mongolic languages can thus be reconstructed from Middle Mongol. An exception would be the voice suffix like -caga- 'do together', which can be reconstructed from the modern languages but is not attested in Middle Mongol.
One can speculate that the languages of Donghu, Wuhuan and Xianbei might be related to Proto-Mongolic.[9] For Tabghach (the language of the founders of the Northern Wei dynasty), for which the surviving evidence is very sparse, and Khitan, for which evidence exists that is written in the two Khitan scripts which have as yet not been fully deciphered, a direct affiliation to Mongolic can now be taken to be most likely or even demonstrated.[10]

Diamonds are precious stones, each with its own unique characteristics. No two are alike. The primary characteristics of a diamond in determining value are its color, carat weight, cut, and the clarity of the diamond. These are commonly referred to as the 4 Cs.
Personal taste will dictate which characteristics are most important as you analyze your options. Seeing diamonds in person will help illsutrate the differences, especially when placed side by side. Kimball's Jewelers invites you to stop by and learn more about diamonds in person. We will take the time to show you the unique characteristics of diamonds and help find the perfect diamond for your budget.
Set Up a FREE Engagement Consultation
Things to Consider With the 4 Cs operating on a sliding scale, there are infinite combinations of cut, color, clarity and carat weight that can be leveraged to find the perfect diamond for the price you want. Carat weight is a huge driving force with regard to price because there are simply not as many large diamonds in the world. Thus an increase in carat weight will result in a direct increase in price.
The clarity of a diamond can also be a topic of debate. Purists will strive for perfection and put an emphasis on the clarity, or lack of inclusions, within the diamond. Others feel that these invisible-to-the-eye imperfections are like a birthmark or mole, and these individual character marks should be embraced.
Color is another topic of contention. "Colorless" diamonds in the D, E and F categories are the most expensive, but individual taste will dictate just how far down the alphabet you want to go. The color scale goes from D-Z, D being completely colorless and Z being very yellow. A Z diamond, however, should not be confused with a "fancy yellow" or "canary" diamond, which is an entirely different grade of natural yellow diamonds that are also very desirable.
Lastly, many individuals favor brilliance over all others, which is mostly the result of a fine cut. The amount of sparkle, fire and brilliance demonstrated by the diamond as it interacts with the ambient light is a very desirable trait for a diamond. Quite frankly, it's what makes a diamond unique from all other gemstones!

The 4 Cs : Cut
Of all the 4 Cs, cut has the greatest effect on a diamond's beauty. A good cut will result in diamond that sparkles with brilliance. Diamonds have a unique ability to manipulate light efficiently. This ability can be released and maximized only by cutting and polishing the diamond to an extremely high level of accuracy.
Cut is often confused with the shape of a diamond. Shape is largely a matter of personal preference and is limited only by the skill and creativity of the craftsman. The 10 most common shapes are emerald, round, princess, cushion, heart, pear, marquise, oval, radiant, and asscher. Round, Oval, Cushion, Pear, Marquise and Heart diamonds are considered brilliant cuts because of their unique symmetry and ability to sparkle.
The 4 Cs : Color
A truly colorless diamond is extremely rare. Most diamonds possess varying degrees of yellow or brown, and small, subtle differences in color can make a substantial difference in value. If a diamond is well cut, the diamond's refraction and dispersion often will disguise certain degrees of coloration. Unless a diamond is a fancy color (or any color other than colorless to light yellow or brown), the American Gem Society Color Grading System places it on a 0 to 10 scale, 0 being colorless. To accurately and consistently grade color, an American Gem Society experienced grader will utilize special lighting to compare the diamond being graded to a set of American Gem Society Master Color Comparison Diamonds. These diamonds have met exacting standards of cut, color, clarity, and carat weight.
The 4 Cs : Clarity
Clarity is the evaluation of a diamond's internal and external characteristics. The fewer inclusions or blemishes, the more desirable the diamond. Inclusions are internal, that is, inside the diamond. Crystals are merely minerals trapped inside the diamond; feathers are breaks in the diamond. Blemishes are usually very small and are only on the surface of the diamond. To locate these tiny characteristics, an American Gem Society member jeweler will use a binocular microscope that magnifies the diamond 10 times. Then, from an evaluation of the size, location, nature, number, and color of all the inclusions and blemishes, a clarity grade from 0-10 will be assigned 0 being flawless or internally flawless.
The 4 Cs : Carat
The standard used to measure diamond weight is the carat. A carat equals 1/5 of a gram (or 1/142 of an ounce). Each carat is further divided into points, each point representing 1/100 of a carat. While weight may be the least important of the four Cs in determining value, it may be the easiest of the four Cs to gauge accurately and is the most objective.
As diamonds increase in size, their cost tends to increase exponentially. Thus, a one-carat diamond may cost more than twice as much as a one-half-carat stone of equal quality. However, weight does not always enhance the value of a diamond. In fact, when a diamond is improperly cut, added weight may serve only to reduce its brilliance. For these reasons, you should consult with an American Gem Society titleholder regarding the question of carat weight.

Holidays to the French Pyrenees
Stretching from the Atlantic Coast to the Mediterranean, the Pyrenees are a dramatic range of mountains stretching for 400km and forming a 'frontiere sauvage' between France and Spain. They are a mountain range renowned for their mixed limestone and granite geology, rugged peaks, deep canyons and almost endless opportunities for activities and exploration. Except for a couple of hot spots, they remain wonderfully secluded.
Although not as high as the Alps, they are no less spectacular, with such dramatic views as the limestone cliffs of the Cirque de Gavarnie and the pass of the Breche de Roland. Along the length the Pyrenees runs one of Europe's really great long-distance footpaths, the GR10, and the whole range is excellent for trekking and cycling, whether it be road riding over the famous Cols of the Tour de France or heart-stopping mountain biking. In winter the activities go on, with superb snow shoeing and cross-country skiing. As well as the breathtaking scenery, the Pyrenees offer a wonderful chance to see the diversity of the French and Spanish people, with strong influences of the Basque in the West and Catalan in the East. Spa towns, thermal baths, great French and Spanish food and wine - it's a difficult area to miss!

Color-shifting tottles make a splash
The Spectrachrome color shifts used in the tottles are red-gold-orange a blue-green-purple and a bronze-gold-green. For example the red-gold-orange effect used for the Sun Tea Dark Tanning Brew has an inner layer of red HDPE. The design work for the containers was conducted at the Clariant ColorWorks™ Technical and Design Center in McHenry IL. Clariant's director of creative development Len Kulka says that the selection of base pigments for the single-layer jar along with its refractive Spectrachrome pigments was more critical than the two-layer tottles. "There needed to be some light transmission into the container wall to get the full effect into a single-layer container" Kulka explains.
The Spectrachrome effect is exotic yet the material runs within conventional processing parameters and cycle times and does not require special tooling according to Clariant. The colorant is provided to the molder as pellets. The percentage of the colorant used in the outer layer is below 10%.
Fiji Blend also put plenty of effort into the label. Used on the tube and on the tottles it was designed in the style of famous marine artist Wyland according to Fiji Blend director of marketing Yana Simone. "The highly detailed label is designed to evoke the feeling of being on vacation at luxurious Fiji."
The label features holographic effects in the word "blend" under the Fiji Blend brand name and in mimicking sunlight sparkling on water. Simone won't provide label specifications other than that it is printed in eight colors.
Show stoppers
In addition to the technical details of the package development there were also scheduling pressures—the packaged products had to debut at the annual Indoor Tanning Association World Expo in November '02 Simone says.
"We wanted a dramatically different package and that is what we got" Freeman says. "When we introduced the line at [ITA] we received a fantastic response.
"People were really impressed there's nothing else out there like it" adds Simone. "One of the most frequent comments we're getting is that people love the packaging and how it stands out on shelves—especially in tanning salons where other products are also displayed. The products draw consumer response because they are so beautiful.
"Sales have exceeded what we expected and packaging plays a very major role in that. We're very proud of how the packaging looks and the market response attests to that."
The company looks to expand the products with additional colors and packages this year.

Having both recently retired, and not being as healthy as we would like to be, we decided to look into equity release as a means of being able to fund the build of a utility room/conservatory and install a downstairs toilet . ( Steep stairs are fine when you are young and fit, not so much when you are older) Now, being on a smaller income we did not want to touch what little capital we have so equity release seemed an option. However we were a little retisant as we, possibly like most people did not have any knowledge of what this would mean to us personally. We had no need to worry as from the start key financial were extremely helpful and informative. Following our original enquiry we had the option of a home visit or we could attend a seminar at a local hotel, which we did. This proved to be extremelly infomative as we were shown all the available schemes which were explained in a simple easy to understand way. At the end of the Seminar there was the chance to ask questions or ask for clarification on anything, we then had the option of a home visit by the representative, (Mr, Les Garbutt) leaving any decision till a later date, or just walking away saying thank you very much but this is not for us. What was nice is that at no time either by phone, in the seminar or during the home visit were we pressured into making any decision. Mr. Garbutt came back to us with a printed report showing several companies and what they were offering so it was easy to see which company was offering us the best deal . We would have no hesitation in recomending Key Retirement Solutions for anyone considering equity release who wants independent advice.

Valley (4-0), which was ranked No. 2 in last week's playoff ratings, visits co-No. 3 Meadow Bridge (5-0), which has allowed just eight touchdowns in five games.
The Greyhounds swept a pair of games from the Wildcats last year - both on artificial turf - 30-14 during the regular season at Martin Field in Montgomery and 22-6 in the first round of the playoffs at Laidley Field.
The second game provided veteran Valley coach Benny Hopkins with his first playoff win in 33 years of coaching.
Other key contests this week include:
Fumbles and jumbles
Setbacks to several top-10 teams should juggle the top of the rankings in both Class AAA and AA when the SSAC releases its next of playoff ratings on Tuesday.
In AAA, losses came to co-No. 1 Huntington, No. 3 Martinsburg, No. 6 Capital and No. 10 Parkersburg South.
In AA, the list of victims included No. 2 Keyser, No. 7 Sissonville, co-No. 8s Summers County and Wyoming East and co-No. 10 Philip Barbour.
In Class A, the only member of the top 10 to fall was No. 1 Notre Dame.

FormsCentral appears to permit me to enter Chinese characters into the form template itself.
It seems to permit only Latin characters to respond to the form.
Is that a limitation of FormsCentral, or is it a function of the language for which the browser or computer are set?
Any suggestions?

Long Island Memories
TBB EASAAV POST, AXEPOBT, V. T., nUIAT, OCTOBKE 1, ItlK. IfT 8HEFHEKD DOO. TOBT. He was a happy staephsrd dog; and be 'was wondrous wise. It was dog-wisdom only, but you saw It in his eyes. He knew all ihat I said to him; was ready to obey: And if some people were as wise—that's all I've got to any. He was a handsome felloe, was faithful, kind and true. But mankind's ways oft puzzled talm—'strange, what a man can do!' He pondered over this so much he scarce knew what to think; So, he looked at me with speaking eyes, and gave a knowing wink. He spoke. Indeed, but It was with those big, brown kindly eyes. He never bothered anyone; and he would tell no lies. He spoke, too, with his bushy tall, and his decislTe bark. And though he could not sign his name, he always made his mark. But to this one conclusion he always came at last, "I am my master's collie; to my master I'll hold fast; For he's my loving owaer; and he's my life-long friend. I love him and I'll follow him unto the very end!" We rambled through the shady woods; we lay down on the grass And what a happy time we spent aa the sunny moments passed. And In the water how he swam and splashed, oh, what a dog! I truly think he was as good a swimmer as a frog. He had a warm and shaggy coat, and in the winter time He loved to lie down In the snow; and thia he felt wae prime. And with his big brown speaking eyes It seemed as If he said: "This place is far superior to the softest feather bcd." Poor Toby died some years ago, I never can forget Those loving looks, those speaking eyes, of him my faithful pet. Don't give your heart too much to dogs, though e'er so good and true: For their poor lives are very short, their good years v^ry few. If you have sons and daughters you have treasuree greater far Than all the dogs or pussy cats or all the horses are. And so I say unto you, parents, especially the wife. Oh! lead your little ones to Christ, who gives eternal life. Freeport, L. I. THOMAS H. GfLMORE.

Forty years ago, when the big syn¬ dicate man and "UH<kleberry Charlie" played aa boys In tbe lields near Greut Bend, the future multimillionaire need¬ ed Jnst 50 cents to go to a circus that had struck town. On Charlies money they both saw the show. , Recently, as Mr. Woolworth alighted from his automobile, ('harlle was on hand to press his claim. Mr. Wool- worth did not temporize. He acknowl¬ edged thc debt, and, what's more, he paid It. "We are both from the same town, you know," explained Mr. Woolworth after the settlement. "It seems good to see Charlie once more, even If It has cost me half a djllar. Anyway, that was the best show I ever saw." PRODIGIOUS COST OF EUROPEAN WAR Divine Foresaw Greal Cooflict Two Years itp.

BODY IS MOTIONLESS IN 'AIR. Italian Gets Wonderful Results From New 8l<y Apparatus. Paris.—Louis Itoia, au Italian en¬ gineer, has solved the problem of hold¬ ing an object motionless in space, ac¬ cording to tile Marseilles correspondent of Petit Parlsien. Itota is credited with having constructed an apparatus which, by the action of ele<-trle currents, cau be elevated to a height of 2,<X)0 to 3,00(i feet and kept motionless, or propelled In an.v direction at a speed of more than 100 miles an hour. Itota's apparatus is spindle shaped, twelve feet long and two feet iu diame¬ ter, and can carry a weight of ninety pounds. It is said to remain motion¬ less in a wind <if consideralilc velocity, but if the wind becomes very strong It rises automatically nntil it reaches'a calmer region of the air. Thc invention is based upon reactions obt,'lined from the electromagnetic forces of the at¬ mosphere. No more tiresome trips to the city, just a few steps to Bert's Specialty Shop for ladles' coats, suits, corsets, skirts and millinery. ^ One Year Has Cost More Than Esti¬ mated Value of All Property of Unitod States West of Mississippi. Would Pay National Debts ef All Nations. Philadelrihia.—llev. Dr. J. Henry Smythe, wlltor. author, traveler, lec¬ turer, chancellor of the American uni¬ versity, Tenne.ssee. two years ago last February made the following startling prophecy while siH'aklng at Knoxvllle: "One hundred .years or more ago Na¬ poleon, In the fiery flush of manhood's mornbig, was nnister of all France. The lOgjpthin and the .Vustrlan cam¬ paigns were over. Kussia was invade<l, England was threatene<l. Simin was sulijugated. "The whole continent of Europe was prostrate and paralyzed. Millions of armed men were In the fleld, and con- fli<t and carnage raired from the Tiber to the ThanTes, But .Nelson pounded Xapolecni on Hie se:i, un<l Wellington pounded him upon the land, and to¬ gether they pounded him to pieces. Elba and Waterloo were'but thc blocxl stained stepping stones to St. Helena, "If you will stand with me tunigbt at the hinges of history and look aloug Ihe sky line of current events you wlll see that war is simmering in evcry arsenal of Europe and every w.-ive thai breaks upon the shore Is red with blood. Yet Tientsin and Port .Vrthur. Havana harbor and Manila bny were but the sblfthig scenery, moved by tbe bidden hand of God. in thc awful and unending tragedy of time." "We estimate the cash cost of the European war to Aug. 1, 1915, at $17,- 000,000,000," says Dr. Smythe, "while other known losses wlll amount up to make a grand total of $40,000,000,000, No one can have even the faintest con¬ ception of what IM(i,000,000,000 may be. It is fonr times all the coin In the world. If this sum were measured out in twenty dollar gold pieces und they weie placed side by side on the rail¬ way track, on each rail, they would cover with gold every line from New York to the Pacific ocean, the two Canadian lines Included, There would bc enough left over to cover each rail of the Siberian railway from Vlitdivos- tok to I'etrogrud. There would still remain sulJi'-ient lo rclinblUtatc Bel¬ gium and to buy the whole of Turkey, at her own valuation, wiping her flnall.v nnd forever from tho map. "Or we may figure in some other fashion. The average workin.trman In America ear.is .$518 per year. It would take OO.OOfMKiO years' work to pay the cost of tbe war up to date, or DO.OOO.OtKj Americnn laborers might pay It off in one year if all their living expenses were paid. "The cost of a year of tlie great war is a little more than the estimated viUue of all Ihc projierty of the ITnlted State* west nf the Mfssissi])pi river.

Ellsworth Correctional Facility Bike Shop in need of assistance to serve those less fortunate | Array Print Array |
Written by Administrator |
Wednesday, 02 January 2013 11:11 |
By DEB CANNON COUGILL The Ellsworth Correctional Facility (EFC) began a bike refurbishing shop with a crew of one officer and two inmates in July 1999. Since its inception, the EFC now employs 14 inmates who produce anywhere from 1,100-1,500 refurbished bikes per year. The state of Kansas budgets zero dollars for the bike shop. The program operates completely through donations of tattered bicycles and monetary contributions. Bicycles arrive at the facility from across the state. The inmates then rebuild the bikes, so they are appealing to the receiver and are functional. Want to read more? Log into read the online edition here Linn County News |

Simon Cowell and Mezhgan Hussainy: It's Sort of Over!
by Hilton Hater at .When it comes to potential professional artists, Simon Cowell has a very clear idea of what he wants. When it comes to love? Not so much.
The singer tells UK's The Daily Mirror that he and Mezhgan Hussainy - a makeup artist he met behind the scenes of American Idol in 2003 - are no longer engaged. But are they still dating? We'll let Simon explain:
"It's quite a complicated relationship. We have had a break from each other, and we are still incredibly close," Cowell tells the newspaper. "I'm vulnerable. It's not on, it's not off, it's somewhere in the middle. I don't know if I will ever get married, but I am happy."
Hussainy has reportedly moved out of the Los Angeles mansion she shared with the music mogul - and into another home nearby where Simon's other famous ex, Teri Seymour, also stayed after she split from Cowell. Friends allegedly refer to this residence as the "girlfriends graveyard."
"I don't pay them off," Cowell says of his history with women. "But if you have been with someone long enough, there is a responsibility. You can't say one minute you can live this type of life and then the light goes off."

I must respectfully disagree with Kathy Settles, who says that God is a "must" to keep a couple together. There should be some kind of spiritual component perhaps, including "God" in the traditional sense for some, but it doesn't have to be. My husband and I have been happily married for nearly 40 years and we are both agnostics. What people really need to do is grow up, have realistic expectations,and do the hard work that is sometimes required.
Take it from someone who has been married thirty six years, ONLY GOD can keep couples together through the ups and downs that this life has to offer. It is not about how you feel all the time but about covenant, commitment and unselfishness. In today's society we know nothing about these things nor sacrificial love. Only God can teach us how to live this way and to stop glamorizing marriage. Like any other relationship there must be respect and consideration but it can work if one wants it to but as I said The Lord is a MUST!

New Policy Research Unit in the Health of Children, Young People and Families
22 July 2011
Delivering the best policy research in the health of children, young people and families
The UCL Institute of Child Health and partners have secured a five year, £4.6m grant from the Department of Health Policy Research Programme, to lead a new Policy Research Unit in the Health of Children, Young People and Families (abbreviated to CPRU). The Unit was formally launched on Wednesday 20 July at the Institute of Child Health.
Professor Terence Stephenson, Nuffield Professor of Child Health at ICH, and President, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, who led the winning team, said: "This is an exciting opportunity to ensure that some of the key policy decisions affecting children and young people can be informed by the best quality research. As such, we hope to deliver the best policy research."
An innovative feature of the CPRU is that it has designated resources to investigate specific questions asked by Department of Health, as these arise in the future. It is also well placed to seek further funding if additional issues are identified. The CPRU is funded for five years to examine the research evidence base for policy. The work of the CPRU falls into four themes, with the theme leads based across UCL alongside important partners such as the Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE), leading children's charity the National Children's Bureau (NCB) and the Anna Freud Centre. Each of the four themes have two projects which will be completed by December 2012 and these will inform the programme for years three to five.
The four research themes in the first year are:
1) Led by Professor Catherine Law, UCL Institute of Child Health: Healthy Child theme will explore the health of children in different family structures
2) Led by Professor Ruth Gilbert UCL Institute of Child Health: Healthcare Provision theme will explore whether routine hospitalisation data provide evidence for whether the NICE guidance on recognising child maltreatment has had an impact
3) Led by Dr Miranda Wolpert, the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Evidence Based Practice Unit, UCL and the Anna Freud Centre: Child mental health theme will explore how routine outcome measures collected in CAMHS can be used to feedback to practitioners and drive up standards
4) Led by Professor Russell Viner, UCL Institute of Child Health: Adolescence theme will explore interventions to prevent multiple high risk behaviours in adolescents

The quality difference between Hori and Madcatz as makers of fightsticks is a wash. They both use Sanwa buttons (OBSF-30mms) and Sanwa Joysticks (JLFs). I'm not a huge fan of the SFxT stick from a design perspective, but I greatly prefer this stick to the Hori sticks that you posted. The Tournament Edition fightsticks from Madcatz are the stick of choice for most players and are far more common than Hori sticks. The size and weight of the T.E. sticks is more balanced and the start button is NOT right next to the other buttons. If you ever plan to play in a tournament, hitting start will get you disqualified from the match. Newer Hori sticks have a switch you can toggle to disable start for your matches, but if you accidentally forget, you risk losing. Also, I don't like this particular Hori stick because the handles are like "wings" on the side and the weight just isn't there IMO. If you're going to get a Hori stick, I'd recommend moreso one that's similar to the Tekken Tag Tournament 2 design- more rectangular with the ability to cover the start button. It also has a better size and weight. An example of this stick is here: http://www.amazon.com/Tekken-Tour...cade+sti They also have this same stick in a Soul Calibur V design and a Dead or Alive 5 design. I'm not saying the stick that you posted is garbage, but it's definitely NOT superior to a Tournament Edition stick. It's at best (and most fighting game players would agree) equal to it, but more likely very slightly inferior. I personally prefer the other Hori stick a tad bit more than a tournament edition stick, but that's like a 9.51/10 vs a 9.5/10. That being said, if you're in the market for one, definitely pick up a stick like this or a Hori equivalent. The market value for a new one at a good price is about $100 and they're well worth it. |

Quote with 17 notes
People of color, women, and gays — who now have greater access to the centers of influence that ever before — are under pressure to be well-behaved when talking about their struggles. There is an expectation that we can talk about sins but no one must be identified as a sinner: newspapers love to describe words or deeds as "racially charged" even in those cases when it would be more honest to say "racist"; we agree that there is rampant misogyny, but misogynists are nowhere to be found; homophobia is a problem but no one is homophobic. One cumulative effect of this policed language is that when someone dares to point out something as obvious as white privilege, it is seen as unduly provocative. Marginalized voices in America have fewer and fewer avenues to speak plainly about what they suffer; the effect of this enforced civility is that those voices are falsified or blocked entirely from the discourse.

Comments about 18KW Delicate Antique Scroll Ring:
I bought the engagement ring and received it about a week after the initial purchase, simple & distinct is what I was looking for and what I got! The antique scrolling on the sides of the ring really makes it stand out from other engagement rings, I was also pleasantly surprised by the size of the diamond. I got a smaller diamond that was lab created and what a beautiful and gorgeous design, it sparkles more so than a traditionally mined diamond. The CS agent was so helpful and polite, ask for Mary, she is so amazing!

Comments about 18KW Delicate Antique Scroll Ring:
MY fiancee loves the ring. We looked at a few in advance, so I had an idea of what to get. It was definitely worth sacrificing some size for the added clarity and (lack of) color. I wanted a 1.0 carat, but instead selected a 0.93 carat which rated better in cut, color and clarity. It was well worth it! The sparkle is the best part and 0.93 carat looks just as nice on my fiancee's hand.
