Superior Source Melatonin -- 5 mg - 60 Instant Dissolve Tablets
Best Sleep Aid
I have tried several sleep aids and this is the only one that works for me every. single. time! I love that I don't have to have water nearby to take it as it just dissolves under my tongue. I keep the bottle next to my bed so if I am having trouble sleeping I just roll over and grab one and pop it in my mouth. It calms me down without the drugged feeling within 15-30 minutes. It also helps me sleep without feeling groggy when I wake up. Love, love, love this product!!!

Sleep all night
Love that this doesn't have magnesium stearate. Very hard to find a melatonin with out that harmful ingredient. It doesn't taste as good as others, but it only lasts a second and it's worth to me to use a product that is better for you and works better as well!

Quick and easy melatonin
Nice price. Easy to take. Helps me sleep!

The 5 Essential Handbags Every Woman NeedsWith this list, there will be no more purses squashed in your closet, no more impulse bag buys, no more hoarding of freebie totes.

The Fits-More-Than-a-Mint ClutchYou need something that goes with your dark jeans and heels on a Saturday night and is suitable for a black-tie wedding. O creative director Adam Glassman says a bag in a neutral metallic material—like silver, gold or pewter—adds subtle sparkle and works with both. Make sure your purse has a wrist strap so that you can avoid tucking it under your arm and snagging it on fabrics like silk or chiffon. (We like this hot pink version from La Regale.) A brightly colored leather clutch can be just as versatile and looks less formal than satin or lace for daytime events.

Q&A: Introvert prefers to stay in comfort zone at work
Q: I just started a new job with a great company. There are only a handful of us in my role, and I'm among the more experienced in this newly emerging discipline. There is considerable opportunity to help educate co-workers about our discipline and to be a strong, vocal advocate for integrating it into all the work we do.
This sounds wonderful in the abstract. However, I'm not a leader or a risk-taker; I'm an introvert, and I'm not usually the one speaking up and taking charge of things. In fact, I'd be perfectly content to be very good at my job, go home at a reasonable hour and not add more to my stress levels. I'm certainly no slacker, but I'm not what you'd call ambitious or driven, either.
Should I suck it up and try to "fake it 'til I make it" as a leader? Or is it perfectly acceptable for me to stay more in my comfort zone and not worry about taking on more responsibilities?
A: You certainly do not have to become a person you don't want to be. What is important is to have a frank discussion with your boss about what matters to you. Maybe your boss sees some potential in you that you are not aware of and wants to open up some new opportunities for you.
There also are lots of ways in which people exhibit leadership (as mentors, coaches, advisers, facilitators, etc.). It is important for people to recognize their own strengths, and there are plenty of tools and books for doing this.

One of the things you can do is to be a "behind the scenes" contributor. People who have a lot of knowledge and ideas to offer but who tend to be quiet, tend to say the kinds of things people listen to when they do speak. I don't know if you're old enough to remember the E.F. Hutton commercials - "When E.F. Hutton talks, people listen". Substitute E.F. with your name :-) You build a reputation among your peers as a subject matter expert, and you build respect and reverence. Even when it's difficult, I do think it is important to contribute and to share some of your ideas and provide input. Sometimes in meetings, it's really challenging to speak up because we don't want to draw attention to ourselves. Try to speak up if you can, but if you really can't bring yourself to do it ,you can still share your ideas outside of a group format.

Smart Bond Investing—Yield and Return
Bond Fact | ||
Price and yield are inversely related: As the price of a bond goes up, its yield goes down, and vice versa. | ||
Coupon and current yield only take you so far down the path of estimating the return your bond will deliver. For one, they don't measure the value of reinvested interest. They also aren't much help if your bond is called early—or if you want to evaluate the lowest yield you can receive from your bond. In these cases, you need to do some more advanced yield calculations. Fortunately, there is a spate of financial calculators available—some that even estimate yield on a before- and after-tax basis. The following yields are worth knowing, and should be at your broker's fingertips:
Yield to maturity (YTM) is the overall interest rate earned by an investor who buys a bond at the market price and holds it until maturity. Mathematically, it is the discount rate at which the sum of all future cash flows (from coupons and principal repayment) equals the price of the bond. YTM is often quoted in terms of an annual rate and may differ from the bond's coupon rate. It assumes that coupon and principal payments are made on time. It does not require dividends to be reinvested. Further, it does not consider taxes paid by the investor or brokerage costs associated with the purchase.
Yield to call (YTC) is figured the same way as YTM, except instead of plugging in the number of months until a bond matures, you use a call date and the bond's call price. This calculation takes into account the impact on a bond's yield if it is called prior to maturity and should be performed using the first date on which the issuer could call the bond.
Yield to worst (YTW) is whichever of a bond's YTM and YTC is lower. If you want to know the most conservative potential return a bond can give you—and you should know it for every callable security—then perform this comparison.
Yield reflecting broker compensation is the yield adjusted by the amount of the mark-up or commission (when you purchase) or mark-down or commission (when you sell) and other fees or charges that you are charged by your broker for its services.
Three Assumptions
YTM and YTC are based on the following assumptions:
Interest rates regularly fluctuate, making each reinvestment at the same rate virtually impossible. Thus, YTM and YTC are estimates only, and should be treated as such. While helpful, it's important to realize that YTM and YTC may not be the same as a bond's total return. Such a figure is only accurately computed when you sell a bond or when it matures.
Reading a Yield Curve
You've probably seen financial commentators talk about the Treasury Yield Curve when discussing bonds and interest rates. It's a handy tool because it provides, in one simple graph, the key Treasury bond data points for a given trading day, with interest rates running up the vertical axis and maturity running along the horizontal axis.
A typical yield curve is upward sloping, meaning that securities with longer holding periods carry higher yield.
The Department of Treasury provides daily Treasury Yield Curve rates, which can be used to plot the yield curve for that day.

@Mr. Pinko, you aren't fired, but don't you start thinking it is a paid vacation!!!
Seriously, though, do we need to hit the tip jar for you guys back there?

Welcome back, Mr. Pinko. I haven't read anything here about you being fired, although there were some statements about "job abandonment." The folks here sure run a tight ship.
+6 -
Is your refrigerator well-stocked this time?

Correction: are your cupboards well-stocked? (as your refrigerator will be of little use, w/out electricity)

Hey, Mr. P! Good to see you!
Good thing you were smart and had a generator, but I read that you can only get 10 gals. of gas. And they had the nerve to criticize Bush. Ha! Idiots!I don't think you're fired, but better play it cool for a couple days….no long lunches, etc.

Generator running fridge – got food this time.
The biggest threat is running out of gas for the generator.

If that next storm hits us on Wednesday we are definitely going to need help.
Hopefully a Romney win will alleviate the stress!

Mr.Pinko, What do you guys need most? Come a point in time when he news media muddies the water to much.
+7 -
Put a couple of gallon jugs of water in your freezer. That will save the food in your fridge for a day or better if you run out of gas, provided you don't open the door too often. Leave air space at the top of the jugs so they won't burst when they freeze. I do it all the time when my power goes out, and it goes out any time lightening strikes within a half mile of my house.

Thanks for the tip Unruly Refugee
@ Bad Brad – just need a few prayers for those that got hit real bad and a few extra ones that we don't get hit again on Wednesday.

Q. These spoons were found in my mother-in-law's home after she passed away. I have no idea how she acquired them since they appear to be from Germany — and to my knowledge, there is no German lineage in our family. I would like to have any information you might be able to provide on these sterling-silver spoons. The hallmark on the back reads "Gowe" with the letter "W" and a "G" above the "W." Intertwined is the world "Alpacca." Is German sterling the same as U.S. sterling?
A. First, let us discuss how this cased set of spoons might have come into your family. We believe these were originally purchased at a porcelain shop ("Porzellanhaus Heinrich Schafer") somewhere in either Germany or Bohemia.
While in the shop, the visitor wanted to purchase a souvenir, but because the porcelain was too fragile, he or she decided on this boxed set of spoons instead — probably because they would travel better. During the later days of the 19th century and well into the 20th, it was something of a custom for travelers to give a spoon or a set of spoons as a remembrance upon their return from a memorable trip.
They (the travelers) might also have chosen a decorative plate, a cup and saucer, a thimble, a tumbler or some other small souvenir. All of these things were inexpensive tokens that people back home often collected. The recipient knew the pieces were not monetarily valuable, but often cherished them for the thoughtfulness they represented.
The English adopted the "sterling standard" in the year 1300, and this meant that any pieces of metal so marked (often with a "lion passant") had to be composed of 925 parts of pure silver per 1,000 parts of metal. However, it was not until 1560, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, that the sterling standard was firmly set in both law and practice.
Sterling silver is almost always .925 percent pure silver, whether it was made in Great Britain or the United States — or anywhere else, for that matter. The only exception we can think of is the Chinese silver we see that is marked "sterling" and ". 950." This suggests the metal used was actually a tad purer than British-style sterling silver.
Over the years, German silversmiths have used a variety of silver alloys to make objects. Commonly found are silver alloys that are 80 percent pure (.800) or 83.5 percent pure (.835), but .830, .900, .912, .937, .875, .812, .750, and, yes, .925 (sterling) can be found as well.
Yes, it can be a little confusing, and proper research is necessary to determine which silver standard was actually used to make any given item. For instance, the numeral "15" found as part of a series of Germanic hallmarks can mean the metal is .937 percent pure silver while "13" may mean it is only .812 percent pure.
The clue to the metal composition of the spoons in today's question is the word "Alpacca," which is a trade name and means these spoons have no silver content whatsoever. Instead, they are composed of an alloy of copper, nickel and zinc.
Alpacca is also called "nickel silver" or "German silver," and the insurance replacement value of this early-20th-century boxed set is less than $35 if they are teaspoon-size.

AUBURN, N.Y. -- After being stalled in Congress for years, a new legislation hopes to honor the life and courage of Harriet Tubman while creating dozens of local jobs.
Senators Charles Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand and Congressman Dan Maffei have introduced the bill that would turn the Harriet Tubman home in Auburn into a National Park. The park would include the Home for the Aged, originally established by Tubman, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church and the Fort Hill Cemetery where Tubman is buried.
If the bill is passed, the Cayuga County Office of Tourism estimates that about 70 new jobs would be created and add an increase of $3.12 million in tourism spending a year.
"This should be open year round. It should be part of the historic trial for women's' rights and it should be an important component of tourism in Cayuga County and in Central New York," Maffei said.
As far as the impact on tourism, officials estimate it would bring in 10,000 to 20,000 additional tourists to the area.

Larry Walkemeyer, D.Min. '06
OCCUPATION: Lead Pastor, Light & Life Christian Fellowship, North Long Beach, California; President, Life In Motion Enterprises
LESSON LEARNED: Saying "yes" to God can lead to an adventure you never imagined.
MY STORY: Growing up on a Kansas farm, the last place Larry Walkemeyer expected to find himself was urban Long Beach, California. "But when God has the steering wheel of your life, you just never know where it will take you," he said. From a young age, Larry had a clear sense that God had called him to a life of ministry. But how and where would prove to be a grand adventure.
Dreaming of beaches, palm trees, and skyscrapers, Larry moved west after high school to attend Azusa Pacific. In the APU cafeteria, he met a student named Deb. Eighteen months later, they were married. "Our common love for God and ministry brought us together," he said. "Thirty years later, our ministry partnership is stronger than ever."
After eleven years as a youth pastor in Seattle, God called the Walkemeyers back to Southern California. Larry became the associate pastor of a comfortable, well-attended, suburban church. When the pastor left, the church asked Larry to take the job. "It looked like a comfortable fit," he recalled. "Good salary, new house, nice people..."
But through a series of circumstances, including the influence of APU professor Gordon Coulter, Ph.D., Larry and Deb followed an unexpected path. "We felt the Lord had called us to partner with Him in turning around a small, struggling Anglo church in the violent urban area of North Long Beach," Larry said. "Sixteen years ago, we said 'yes' and began an adventure we could have never imagined."
Although the church had only 41 parking spots, it grew rapidly. In answer to their prayers, it also became multi-ethnic. Today, Light & Life Christian Fellowship represents 20 different language groups. When the church outgrew its facilities, rather than spending millions to relocate, Larry and Deb had members branch off to start new churches. As a result, they have planted or assisted in planting 11 churches in the U.S., as well as others in Ethiopia and the Philippines.
"In our own neighborhood, we have reached out to one of the most violent streets in Long Beach," Larry said. The City of Long Beach gave the church an award for its positive impact in the area, and now there are more plans to creatively engage the community. "Recently, we purchased a building and are remodeling it to be a community center that partners with the poor to break the cycle of poverty."
In addition to these ministries, Larry and Deb launched Life In Motion Enterprises to help empower local and global mission projects. "Using creative economic engines, we generate income that is used to partner with smaller existing mission groups," he said.
Through Larry's doctoral project at APU's C.P. Haggard Graduate School of Theology, he and professor Kevin Mannoia, Ph.D., authored 15 Characteristics of Effective Pastors (Regal Books, 2007). Church leaders Rick Warren, Bill Hybels, and Nelson Searcy have recommended the book to pastors across the United States.
"APU and C.P. Haggard Graduate School of Theology have been partners with us all throughout our journey," he said. "One of my delights has been having my wife, and then 28 years later, our daughter, Lindsey, become homecoming queens at APU." Lindsey is a 2005 graduate, and currently partners with her parents in several of their ministries.
From the fields of Kansas to the streets of Long Beach, Larry is grateful for the great adventure to which God has called he and his family. "We thank God every day for allowing us to partner with what He's doing in our community and through APU."

Try to keep focused on the goal of generating as many ideas as possible on the brainstorm topic.
noun :: An expression of protest, complaint, or reproof, especially a formal statement of grievances. "Before I could utter a word of remonstrance, I felt a shooting pain in my inside, and a demoniacal laugh seemed to issue from within me." -- Abbott, Edwin Alcohol consumption can cause several different memory problems. In one study it was shown that heavy drinkers have an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and dementia later in life. This is probably due to the toxic effect that alcohol has on the neurons in your brain.
Alcohol can also cause Vitamin B deficiencies which can lead to a disorder called Korsakoff's syndrome which can result in permanent long-term memory loss. Excessive alcohol consumption can also cause blackouts and memory loss. Some studies show that this is because alcohol inhibits the ability of memories to be transferred from short-term to long-term memory. Some recent studies have shown that light drinking (up to one drink a day) may have a beneficial effect on memory, but the reasons for this are still unclear. |

Iowa GOP Chair Calls on Iowans to Oppose Fiscal Cliff Deal
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa Republican Party Chairman A.J. Spiker is urging the state's two GOP congressmen to vote against the fiscal cliff bill approved by the U.S. Senate.
Spiker released a statement Tuesday asking U.S. Reps. Tom Latham and Steve King not to support the measure. Spiker argues that the proposal would raise taxes without meaningful spending cuts. He also praised Republican U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley for his vote against the legislation. Democratic U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin also voted no on the fiscal cliff budget package, saying it helps the wealthy at the expense of the middle class. U.S. Rep. Bruce Braley, a Democrat, said in a statement Tuesday that he'll support the measure in its current form.

Jack Benny
Jack Benny
Jack Benny was a great many things to many people. To millions of radio listeners, his character was simply the cheapest man in America, an image so ingrained into the national consciousness that on opening day of baseball season-instead of throwing out the first ball-he merely glanced at it and put it in his pocket, bringing the house down. To others, he was the world's lousiest violinist, whose ego told him he was one of the all-time greats, an opinion he shared with no one. To many of those same people, he was a man so vain that he claimed to be 39 for almost 40 years. However, for industry insiders and fellow comedians, he was the creator of what is now universally known as the family sitcom and the absolute master of comedic timing. He was also as far removed from his stage character as was humanly possible. Benny may have played the ego obsessed miser, but nobody was more gracious, especially when it came to sharing the laughs on his radio and-later-television shows among his ensemble cast. Benny was not only the pioneer of ensemble cast sitcom work but the genius who knew what made it tick, knowing full well that it didn't matter if you (or for matter, who) got all the laughs as long as the people tuned back in to your show every week. Nobody was better at protecting a laugh than Jack Benny. No matter which cast member had the preceding punch line, Jack always made sure that his writers gave the next line to him, so he could milk the laugh for all it was worth before continuing the routine. As George Burns would so often attest, nobody could wring more laughs out of a blank stare and dead silence than Jack Benny. Certainly no comedian had a keener awareness of what made their act work than he did, a knowledge gleaned from numerous years on the vaudeville circuit, finding out first hand what made audiences laugh.

Food porn is a glamourized spectacular visual presentation of cooking or eating in advertisements, infomercials, cooking shows or other visual media,[1] foods boasting a high fat and calorie content,[2] exotic dishes that arouse a desire to eat or the glorification of food as a substitute for sex.[3] Food porn often takes the form of food photography and styling that presents food provocatively, in a similar way to glamour photography or pornographic photography.
The term appears to have been coined by the feminist critic Rosalind Coward in her 1984 book Female Desire[4] in which she writes:
"Cooking food and presenting it beautifully is an act of servitude. It is a way of expressing affection through a gift... That we should aspire to produce perfectly finished and presented food is a symbol of a willing and enjoyable participation in servicing others. Food pornography exactly sustains these meanings relating to the preparation of food. The kinds of picture used always repress the process of production of a meal. They are always beautifully lit, often touched up." (p. 103)
In the United States, food porn is a term applied when "food manufacturers are capitalising on a backlash against low-calorie and diet foods by marketing treats that boast a high fat content and good artery-clogging potential".[2] The origin of the term was attributed to the Center for Science in the Public Interest[2] which began publishing a regular column called "Right Stuff vs. Food Porn" for its Nutrition Action Healthletter in January 1998.[5][6]
Another possible meaning is referring to the attractiveness and presentation style of some cooking show hosts, such as Nigella Lawson. Lawson has become renowned for her flirtatious manner of presentation, and the perceived overt sexuality of her presentation style has led to her being labelled by several commentators as the "queen of food porn".[7][8][9]

A Tribute to Michael Crichton
It's been a tough few weeks for fiction. We've recently lost some of our greats, including Tony Hillerman, Elaine Flinn, and yesterday, Michael Crichton.
While I had never had the privilege of meeting Crichton, when I opened my Yahoo page and saw his obituary, I experienced the sort of shock you normally feel when you've lost an acquaintance.
May of 1993. I had just finished writing my senior thesis, a series of short stories based on my Grandfather's WWI diaries. I actually finished the book a few days early, shockingly enough (and, as my editor would assure you, not at all true to form). Connecticut was in the full throes of spring, and on a warm, sunny day I brought a copy of Jurassic Park onto the lawn in front of the library and dove in. I generally didn't read thrillers, but the back cover copy had lured me with the promise of a complete escape from the tomes I'd been struggling with for eight semesters.
And I was completely swept away. That book was such a breath of fresh air, I was riveted. What a genius concept: a theme park, with real dinosaurs created from ancient DNA preserved in amber. It hooked me, and from then on I was a devout thriller fan.
Despite the fact that I didn't agree with all of his political stances, you have
to admire a man who never shied away from hot button issues. And Crichton undeniably possessed the Midas touch, prior to JK Rowling storming on to the scene he was the most successful author in the world. It can be argued that he not only revitalized the techno-thriller, paving the way for the success of Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, and James Rollins, but he also made medical dramas sexy again with ER. In addition to his novels, he collaborated on screenplays for films like "Twister." He was remarkably prolific, once claiming to churn out 10,000 words a day. As someone who considers herself fortunate to clock 10,000 words in a week, that's simply staggering.
Not to mention the fact that he was once chosen as one of People's 50 Most Beautiful People, a title that few writers have possessed (shall we call it the "paper ceiling?")
A remarkable writer, and a remarkable person. He will be missed.
6 comments:
I read Jurassic Park and believed dinosaurs could be cloned. I read Timeline and believed time travel was possible. I read State of Fear and believed Global Warming was a myth. I read Prey and found one of the scariest books ever. Time after time Crichton sucked me in and made me believe. Boy, could he research and entertain. He was an original. I'll miss him.

Old Testament Miniatures with Latin, Persian, and Judeo-Persian inscriptions France, Paris, 1240sScholars believe that the Picture Bible was commissioned by Louis IX of France, the Capetian monarch who built the Sainte-Chapelle in Paris to house the crown of thorns before leaving for the first of his two crusades in 1248. The Bible later passed to the cardinal of Cracow, who then offered it as a diplomatic gift to the great Persian Muslim shah 'Abbas in the early seventeenth century. The manuscript eventually fell into the hands of Jewish owners, probably during the eighteenth century. These various owners left Latin, Persian, and Judeo-Persian inscriptions around the images. With these inscriptions, the keepers of the manuscript used their languages to assert their ownership of the book, appropriating its narrative contents and assimilating it into their own cultures. The Latin captions are the earliest. They can be labeled as "early fourteenth-century," and were possibly made by a scribe trained in Bologna. The Persian captions come next. They were added in 1608 or shortly after, when the manuscript was presented to Shah Abbas in Isfahan. The Judeo-Persians are last, and according to the translator, they were probably made in 1722 or shortly after, as that year Isfahan was sacked by the Afghans. She supposes that at that time the book was looted by an Afghan soldier and was possibly exchanged with an Iranian Jew. The Picture Bible is illustrated with saturated colors and exquisite detail. In order to make its lessons relevant to readers, the creators of this Bible set Old Testament stories in contemporaneous environments. For example, depictions of architecture evoke the castles and houses of thirteenth-century French towns and battle scenes are illustrated with thirteenth-century armor, weapons, and battle insignia.
MS M.638 (fol. 24v)Unbalanced by Rage Frustrated by the prolonged battle with the Philistines, Saul seeks the counsel of the Lord, who does not reply. The king discovers that Jonathan has eaten during the battle and wrongly deduces that this act offended the Lord. Saul resolves to kill Jonathan, but the Israelites deliver the youth from his father's misguided vengeance. (1 Kings 14:37–45) A Royal Insubordinate Afterwards, the Lord orders Saul, through Samuel, to destroy the Amalekites, stating that neither man nor beast is to be spared. In battle, Saul violently unhorses the Amalekite king Agag, but, contrary to the will of the Lord, takes Agag and his soldiers captive and collects the best of the enemy's cattle. (1 Kings 15:2–9) Image courtesy of Faksimile Verlag Luzern, www.faksimile.ch. Content consultant: Richard Leson
Folio 24v (Latin)Upper half: How king Saul consulted God, asking if he ought to pursue the Philistines. But God did not answer him and thus, aware of his anger, he called together all the people, that God may show whose fault it was, swearing that whoever was to blame, even his very own son, would surely die. When, at length, the fault had been found to be Jonathan's due to the transgression of eating the honey, he wants to kill him. Still, the people speak against it and Jonathan is released. (I Samuel 14: 37–45)Lower half: How, when Samuel had ordered Saul, in the name of God, to destroy Amalek, to slay all the men, and to kill their animals, sparing none and keeping no booty, Saul killed all the people, as he had been ordered. Yet, he took the king alive, as well as some excellent flocks of sheep and whatever valuable there was, and thus he partly followed God's command, but partly disrespected it. (I Samuel 15: 1–9)Translation by Eran Lupu

Dearest Family & Friends,
Please join us in supporting Michael Austin and our quest for a Miracle, a CURE for Type 1 Diabetes, by joining our walk team on OCTOBER 27th, 2013, at the DOMAIN, in Austin, at 11:00am. Our team, Michael Austin's Miracle, will unite again and we would love to have you marching with us. Your presence will honor Michael Austin's daily battle with this disease as well as the outstanding support and patience he receives from his big sister, Genevieve. These kids are quite a team!
About 30,000 Americans are diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes each year. This is an auto immune disease that is not caused by an unhealthy lifestyle or poor food choices. The immune system attacks the pancreas. This disease requires vigilant management with insulin and finger sticks 24 hours a day, including overnight. Michael Austin has his finger poked to check his blood sugar 8-10 times per day. He now wears an insulin pump 24 hours a day, which means he has a fanny pack holding a machine and 18 inches of plastic tubing attached to a 6mm catheter under his skin at all times. It is his life support system. We change his "infusion site" every 48 hours, and it's a big needle, requiring tremendous bravery. Before his pump, he had 4-5 insulin shots each day, every time he ate. When diabetic kids get sick (cold, infection, flu) it's an even more intensive management process and we try like crazy to keep him out of the hospital. It's a constant balancing act and he never gets a break.
Michael Austin was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes on March 19, 2013, when he was 2 ½ years old. Since then, he has had his fingers poked about 5,400 times, had about 900 shots of insulin, and about 140 infusion site changes. BUT he is PROUD, and DETERMINED. There is hope for a CURE for diabetes and supporting the JDRF is how it can be done. The JDRF currently supports 58 clinical trials and over 80% of donations go directly toward research for a CURE! Diabetes experts report that a cure is attainable in his lifetime, given the proper research.
Our family follows a Christian faith and last Easter Michael Austin (age 3) had many questions for us about death, resurrection, and heaven. I explained heaven as the time when we get to live in a perfect world with Jesus where there is only happiness, no sickness or suffering. Michael Austin thought about it for a few moments then said, "Mama, when I get to heaven, will Jesus take my pump away? And that means no more diabetes in heaven?" My eyes filled with tears, my heart swelled, and I vowed silently at that moment to do everything possible to take that pump away before he gets to heaven. The JDRF is our fastest path. Won't you join us in fighting for Michael Austin's Miracle??
