Marvel Comics Cover Reveals: the "Amateurs" and "Killers" of Young Avengers & Uncanny X-ForceA comics news article
Natalie Parker has TWO bits of Marvel NOW! news:
First up, the Young Avengers are set to return as Marvel draws back the curtain, with a Q&A revealing their bright young things… finally!
The creative team of Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie have been teasing fans over Twitter for months; steadily building up fan anticipation since their initial simultaneous tweet of a cover featuring Tumblr-favourite Kid Loki, Young Avengers poster boy Wiccan and breakout star of last year's Casey-penned Vengeance mini, Miss America Chavez.
Last week's one word teaser labelled the team as "Amateurs" but Jamie McKelvie's cover reveals a teen-dream roster, with the previously teased trio being joined by Young Avengers mainstays Teddy "Hulkling" Altman and Kate "Hawkeye" Bishop. The final member, however, is a genuine (and most decidedly welcome) surprise: Noh-Varr, last seen abandoning the Avengers during AvX.
The second, surprise cover of the day is for Sam Humphries and Ron Garney's Uncanny X-Force #1, beautifully pencilled by Oliver Coipel.
First impressions? Storm. Mohawk. STORM. MOHAWK.
Be still, my beating heart.
There's no word as yet from Sam Humphries on the cover's main talking point; the reveal of a mystery woman, garbed in an outfit strikingly similar to the presently-deceased Fantomex. When questioned on Twitter, his only response was "my lips are sealed." Cue dramatic music!
"Lady Fantomex" (Femtomex? Fantamex? Fantomette?) is the latest addition to Humphries' Uncanny X-Force, joining Psylocke, Puck, Spiral and Storm as they venture into the "dark places of the Marvel Universe" to deal with the threats that other heroes can't or won't face.
Is Bishop, the fallen hero whose face looms large behind the team the first of those threats, or a potentially ally waiting to be redeemed?
We'll let you know.
Young Avengers and Uncanny X-Force are both set to arrive in January, as part of Marvel NOW!
Bisexual Valkyrie, in exile from her beloved homeland of Yorkshire, watches over the Manchester cityscape. Not actually a supervillain, despite living above a hat museum. Lover of cinema, comics, posh coffee, very small lop-eared bunnies and Swedish Electronica. Would marry Jamie McKelvie's artwork, if such a thing were legal in Britain.

So wait, is this allegedly racist guy RH156?
Parmi | #1 draft pick | Jake King is **** | Big Bash League tipping champion of the universeCome and Paint Turtle
I'm not sure about racist but he has strong opinions about people with "negro or asian blood" playing for England.
Must admit, whilst I find it objectionable and wrong-headed, I'd question whether the article is defamatory.
Cricket Web's 2013/14 Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"The committee discussed the issue of illegal bowling actions, and believed that there are a number of bowlers currently employing suspect actions in international cricket, and that the ICC's reporting and testing procedures are not adequately scrutinising these bowlers."
- Even the ICC's own official press release thinks things must change
-My beliefs summarized in words much more eloquent than I could come up with
How the Universe came from nothing
...wish I'd chosen to specialise in defamation cases rather than chasing around the criminal courts vainly chasing and occasionally, but not as often as I hoped, achieving that elusive thing called justice
I could've retired by now, and taken to spending my whole life maligning the misunderstood, rather than just a few hours here and there
I actually find articles like that particularly annoying to add to their distaste, because they muddle an important issue (players playing for their second, third or fourth choice countries who, had they not been involved in international cricket, they'd cheer against) with race. Race and nationality and not tied at the hip, and all stuff like this does is sully the good arguments of folk who don't like the eroding sense of national representation in not only cricket but sport worldwide. The cause of this is the Kruger van Wyks of the world; not the Nasser Hussains.

GPs' foodbank referral fears (From Blackburn Citizen)

GPs' foodbank referral fears
3:05pm Thursday 30th January 2014 in News
GPS say that a deluge of patients urgently requesting foodbank referrals would push their surgeries to breaking point.
Doctors – along with social workers, health visitor teams and other social organisations – are allowed to issue foodbank referrals to those they feel are in need of a food donatione.
However, only three surgeries in Blackburn have signed up to be 'voucher holders', meaning they can issue a patient with a foodbank voucher themselves.
The voucher can then be taken to the Blackburn foodbank in Brunswick Street and exchanged for three days' worth of emergency food.
Only the three Cornerstones Practices – Shadsworth Surgery, Lambeth Street Surgery and Bentham Road Health Centre – are foodbank voucher holders, as well as Darwen Health Centre.
GP surgeries that don't issue vouchers can still refer patients to the foodbank but would have to contact the foodbank themselves and often feel they do not have time to do so.
Dr Claire Rushton, a GP at Roman Road Health Centre and Vice Chair of the Family Doctor Association, said patients making medical appointments to tell doctors they are hungry and need help was not making the best use of their time.
Dr Rushton said: "We're so busy already I don't know how we would find the time.
"I don't think it's the role of a GP to refer people as we cannot assess how much money people have — if someone was malnourished, I'd send them to a dietician. I had one patient who asked for a foodbank referral because she was on low income. l don't know how much money she had, but how could I have said no? I just wrote a letter to the foodbank and hoped they helped her."
Ros Duerden, of the Blackburn foodbank, said: "I have written to all GPs in our area, so they know how to become a voucher holder.
"When they ring us, they can refer someone for emergency food, which we honour, or they can refer them for an assessment if they are unsure.
"Doctors can see if someone is malnourished or if they may struggle to get to the shops, but they are not necessarily aware of people's financial needs and whether or not they have any support. I think that's why we see more referrals from health visitors and social workers who are more aware of these kinds of issues."

I completely agree with Dr Rushton - it's completely absurd for people who fancy a bit of free food to turn up at their GP's saying. "Morning Doc, I'm feeling a bit peckish, so please could you prescribe me some baked beans (and can you make sure it's a tin with some of those little pork sausages in, please)."
These people aren't ill, and they should not be wasting GP's valuable (and very expensive) time.

"Morning doctor I've only got enough money for beer and fags and a taxi to the DSS . So please could you issue me a free food voucher, then I can sell that also"
Just think about it before you donate food to such a crazy thing.

Create a Scholarship
Join hundreds of supporters who have created scholarships to help current students afford a Christ-centered Bethel education.
Why create a scholarship?
Scholarships directly support Bethel undergrad and seminary students—giving them the amazing gift of tuition dollars. As they worry less about college finances, students engage more fully in their Bethel experience.
What are the benefits?
To students:
- Scholarship money offsets the cost of tuition.
- Scholarships are a type of financial aid that doesn't have to be repaid.
- Students receive peace of mind.
To investors:
- Honor a loved one by creating a scholarship in their name.
- Recognize an area of interest or passion.
- Enjoy an opportunity to meet scholarship recipients.
To Bethel:
- Bethel can make tuition costs manageable by offering financial aid that doesn't have to be repaid.
- Scholarships give promising students the opportunity to excel in their area of interest.
How do I get started?
If you're interested in learning more about establishing a scholarship for Bethel students, contact our development officers.
They're happy to give you a call or set up a time to meet and talk through your ideas.

Tampa police are searching for a violent sex predator accused of targeting a young family member.
The parole officer for Christopher Jones says he tore off his ankle bracelet on Christmas Day and has not been seen since.
Investigators want Jones for a list of charges but are having a tough time tracking him down. Police say they're relying on the community for tips.
Neighbors tell us police locked down the area surrounding Jones' home Tuesday night while they were looking for him.
Police say the female victim's mom called them when her daughter told her what happened. Neighbors think Jones was tipped off about that call, and that's why he ditched his ankle monitor and disappeared.
"We want to find him," Andrea Davis of Tampa police said. "Obviously, this little girl, a family member, is scared, and we want to provide some sense of relief knowing he's behind bars."
One neighbor said they don't need "people like him" in the neighborhood.
Jones spent about nine years behind bars for rape and aggravated battery. He's been on probation the past two years, and that doesn't expire until 2040.
Fox 13's Michael Shingleton contributed to this report.

- Knee better, Sanchez back at second base
- Torres sits against Los Angeles left-hander
- Bochy ponders players' postgame safety
LOS ANGELES -- Giants third baseman Mark DeRosa could be headed for his second stint of the season on the disabled list after straining his left wrist in Wednesday night's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.Though DeRosa's playing status was initially announced as day to day, manager Bruce Bochy said of the 36-year-old, "It looks like he's going to be out for a while." Bochy added that DeRosa will return to San Francisco on Thursday to be examined by physicians. DeRosa appeared to hurt himself as he was cocking his bat for Clayton Kershaw's 1-2 pitch, which bounced in the dirt. DeRosa immediately spun out of the batter's box and, in obvious pain, immobilized his left arm by pressing it against his body.
"He said it felt like [Dodgers catcher Rod] Barajas grabbed his bat," Giants outfielder Cody Ross said.As head athletic trainer Dave Groeschner led him off the field, DeRosa angrily whipped off his batting helmet and flung it down the tunnel leading from the dugout to the clubhouse. Without DeRosa, the Giants likely will resume using Miguel Tejada at third base and Mike Fontenot at shortstop until injured third baseman Pablo Sandoval returns in late June. The injury was an ominous one for DeRosa, who has undergone left wrist surgery twice since October 2009. He was sidelined with inflammation in the wrist during late April and was playing his seventh game since being reinstated from the disabled list last Tuesday. DeRosa, who signed a two-year, $12 million contract with San Francisco as a free agent before the 2009 season, has been limited to 44 games as a Giant by his wrist problems. Given DeRosa's considerable populariity among his teammates, Ross spoke for many Giants in expressing sadness over DeRosa's latest misfortune.
"He's one of my closest friends on the team," Ross said. "To see a guy go down after battling it for the last year or more -- you could tell instantly he was in pain. I just feel bad for him. Hopefully it's not too bad."DeRosa's batting average had dwindled to .162 (6-for-37) with an 0-for-23 skid, the longest hitless streak of his career.
Knee better, Sanchez back at second base
LOS ANGELES -- The swelling in second baseman Freddy Sanchez's left knee subsided as quickly as it increased, enabling him to rejoin the Giants' lineup for Wednesday night's series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers.Sanchez, 33, believes the inflammation that prevented him from playing Tuesday at Colorado was an aberration. He had missed only two of 40 games before that incident. The fact that the swelling disappeared virtually overnight was a "great sign," he said. "Something probably irritated it," said Sanchez, who underwent arthroscopic surgery on Sept. 30, 2009, to repair a torn meniscus in that same knee. "But today it's much better. I don't think it's going to be an issue at all." Sanchez entered Wednesday with a career batting average of .325 at Dodger Stadium, fifth-highest among active players.
Torres sits against Los Angeles left-hander
LOS ANGELES -- Though Andres Torres has been mostly effective at the plate since returning from the disabled list, manager Bruce Bochy didn't think twice about replacing the switch-hitter with Aaron Rowand against Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday.Batting right-handed has been a challenge for Torres, who's 0-for-8 from that side of the plate this year after hitting .224 right-handed and .284 left-handed last season. Bochy affirmed that Torres will face some left-handers as the season unfolds. But Bochy also doesn't want to push Torres too hard in the wake of the left Achilles tendon injury that sidelined him for 26 games. Thus, he'll continue to rest Torres occasionally, and this was as good a time as any with Kershaw on the mound for Los Angeles.
"I want to keep his legs fresh and reduce the risk of any injury. Not that there is a high risk," Bochy said.Starting Rowand in this game instead of Torres, Bochy added, was part of the rotation he outlined in a discussion with the outfielders before this three-city trip began.
Bochy ponders players' postgame safety
LOS ANGELES -- Manager Bruce Bochy put a different spin on the Bryan Stow incident Wednesday, expressing concern for ballplayers' welfare as they leave Dodger Stadium.Stow is the Giants fan who was beaten at a Dodger Stadium parking lot after the March 31 season opener. He remains in critical condition with skull and brain injuries and recently transferred hospitals from Los Angeles to San Francisco. "You think about your players as they leave the ballpark," Bochy said. "There is that hanging over your head as you leave the ballpark. You have to be aware that anything could happen." With $200,000 being offered for information leading to an arrest and the best technology available to authorities, Bochy expressed surprise that no arrests have been made.
"There had to be a number of witnesses," he said.Though the Giants didn't dwell on the incident, they're universally aware that it's inextricably linked to every Giants-Dodgers game, at least for the near future. "We understand there are things that are going to change the atmosphere," right-hander Sergio Romo said. "We, as baseball players, still have to play baseball. Obviously, it's a rivalry. ... We don't call it a rivalry so fans can beat up each other. We call it a rivalry so we can show who's the best on the field."

Cardinals activate Laird from 15-day DL
Team also calls up P.J. Walters from Triple-A Memphis
ST. LOUIS -- The Cardinals made a pair of moves on Thursday, one long expected and one necessitated at the last minute.
As it had planned to do all week, the club reinstated catcher Gerald Laird from the 15-day disabled list prior to Thursday's game. To make room, Mark Hamilton was optioned to Triple-A Memphis. Additionally, the Cards optioned pitcher Brandon Dickson to Memphis and purchased the contract of pitcher P.J. Walters. To make room for Walters on the 40-man roster, pitcher Bryan Augenstein was designated for assignment.
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the sequence was Hamilton being sent out. Instead of keeping the left-swinging first baseman, the Cardinals kept Tony Cruz on the roster as a third catcher. Cruz can also play first base and third base, and already has done so while in the big leagues.
"[We've] got a variety of ways to use [Cruz]," manager Tony La Russa said. "Plus he's done well. He's done a good job since he was here."
Walters was needed because of Wednesday night's 13-inning game in which the Cardinals used six relievers to pitch 8 2/3 innings. He was slated to start for Memphis at Round Rock on Thursday, but instead was notified late Wednesday night to come to St. Louis.
Draft pick McElroy expects to sign soon
ST. LOUIS -- Cardinals draftee C.J. McElroy made it clear Thursday that he fully intends to sign with the club, and that he expects a deal to be done relatively soon.
McElroy, an outfielder from the Houston area, was the Cards' third-round pick in last month's First-Year Player Draft. He's a two-sport star who has committed to play football at the University of Houston, but he's also the son of big leaguer Chuck McElroy. He visited Busch Stadium on Thursday, taking some cuts on the field and meeting players in the clubhouse, and said that his heart is in baseball.
"It's going to get done," he said. "Pretty soon. A couple weeks, it will get done."
McElroy said he expects to have something finalized in time to get out and play Minor League ball this year. Minor League seasons conclude at the end of August.
Baby birds
Just like the parent club, Triple-A Memphis played 13 innings on Wednesday, though the Triple-A Redbirds beat Nashville, 6-5. Aaron Luna homered and drove in four runs.
Double-A Springfield was off on Wednesday.
Class A Palm Beach was rained out against Bradenton.
Ryan Copeland pitched seven shutout innings but didn't get any help, as Class A Quad Cities lost to Burlington, 4-3.
Copeland is the player of the day despite the defeat. The left-hander allowed one hit and one walk, striking out five. Copeland, 23, was a 32nd-round Draft pick out of Illinois State in 2010. He's 0-1 on the year in 10 appearances (two starts) with a 3.94 ERA, 34 strikeouts and six walks in 32 innings.
Michael Maness pitched seven strong innings to help short-season Batavia beat State College, 2-1. Maness allowed one unearned run on three hits, striking out five against two walks.
Tyler Rahmatulla and Steven Ramos each had three hits, but rookie-level Johnson City lost to Bluefield, 6-4.
Gerwuins Velazco and Victor Encarnacion homered, helping the rookie-level Gulf Coast League Cardinals beat the GCL Astros, 10-5.
David Freese made his fourth start of the year in the No. 2 spot in the batting order, and La Russa indicated that Freese might see more time in that spot against left-handed pitching.
Cardinals players were allowed a later-than-usual arrival and did not have batting practice on the field on Thursday, a day after the club played a 13-inning game that lasted more than four hours.
Outfielder Daryl Jones was sent from Triple-A Memphis to Double-A Springfield on Thursday.

Eagles & Cougars talk about great friendships, that one week when they take a back seat to football
It may be a battle between two Texas heavyweights, have multiple nicknames and Twitter hash-tags and it may have the ability to have a town buzzing an entire week before kickoff. For the actual kids on the field for Abilene and Cooper high schools, it's just another game, a chance to snag bragging rights, or a final opportunity to do something you've loved to do your entire life, compete against your best friend in the whole world.
"We grew up together playing pop warner, he was on the Cowboys I was on the Jets," AHS wide receiver Keevan Lucas told KTXS on Thursday.
"We're not enemies, we're friends...except for this week," CHS Wide Receiver Anthony Pierson responded. It seems these kids have been friends their entire lives with the exception of a few. It comes as no surprise in the tight knit community that is Abilene, TX.
The pop-warner days are long behind these local football heros but the friendships remain the same. "Keevan Lucas was our wide receiver on the cowboys and Chantz Anderson was our center," Cooper defensive lineman Quinn Harrill recolected after practice Wednesday.
"He's just wearing a different color jersey now, I don't wish anything bad on him," Lucas explained.
So as the hour grows near, the flags are raised and whistle blown, fans should realize the friendly nature in which this "fierce" rivalry is played. Whether on the same pop warner team or opposing 5A high school squads, these kids keep it all into perspective.

Dear Abby: I met a man 15 years ago who has recently come back into my life. I hadn't seen him in years. He says he wants to be with me and marry me, and I very much would like to be his wife. I live in one state, he lives in another and his work is in yet another state. some.
The problem is I think he's married to his job. He says he wants to be home with me once we are married. But then he says that once his work slows down, he won't earn as much.
I'm not sure how I can do this, with him working in one state and living in another. Sometimes I wonder if he's really in love with me or if he's stringing me along. How can I be with him if I never see him?
Hearts awaiting
If a "little voice" is telling you this man may be stringing you along, make no hasty decisions. It's important that you visit him at his home at least a few times, get to know his friends and family, if he has any, and see how you would fit in.
You also need to decide how you would spend your "alone" time while he's working. If you are an independent type, you'll be able to fill the time. But if you're not, then face the fact that as much as you care for him, you'd be miserable. So look before you leap to the altar.
Dear Abby: My dear friend, God rest her soul, had a saying I think everyone could benefit from:
"You are the master of the unspoken word. Once it is spoken, it is your master forever."
Comments, Abby?
Discreet midwesterner
Your dear friend was a smart woman. Too many times we say things that we wish we could take back. The same is true for the written word.

Frye Shirley Riding Boots 7 7
Watch the size surprise on these Fryes I love my boots! They are fun and versatile, but definitely casual. They can be worn over jeans or leggings and I think they are especially attractive with a calf-length skirt. As the description states, they are best suited for a narrow or medium width foot. My feet are average width, but I have a very high arch, so at first I was worried that I wouldn't be able to keep them because I had to pull so hard to put on the left boot. However, the leather stretched a bit to allow for a more comfortable fit and easier 'on / off'. I had tried on a different style Frye boot in my size (7) at a local store and that boot was huge in comparison to the Shirley size 7, so I didn't anticipate how tight they felt initially. The leather is good quality and I like the color. There is very little variation or variegation as there used to be in the Fryes of yore. As with most leather cowboy boots, they need a break-in period, so don't plan a long walk on your first time out or you will have sore feet. January 2, 2014
First pair of Fryes Having read other reviews, ordered 1/2 size larger and glad I did. Always wanted a pair of Fryes--had to wait 'til my fifties to get them! November 25, 2013
Frye Shirley Riding Boots I have a hard time believing these are actually Fyre Boots. Not Frye quality at all. Very cheap looking. Went to the Frye store in Georgetown (DC) and the boots there are far superior quality. Seems better value to buy the actual Frye boot from their store than inexpensive version. November 24, 2013
So disappointed I've always loved Frye boots and have worn them for years. I was looking for a knee-high boot and was sure these would deliver just what I was looking for. I couldn't have been more wrong. Initially I was unable to get my foot into the ankle area of the boot. I worked until I was finally able to put them on, but felt that they were narrower than any other Frye shoe or boot that I have ever worn. It is with great regret that I am having to return them. I would not recommend this product to anyone unless you had an extremely narrow foot, no arches and a hyper mobile ankle. November 11, 2013
Loved the boots but they did not fit my foot. Had to send them back. October 8, 2013
Love these boots, but... Love the style of these boots and the quality of Frye you cannot beat, but I had a very difficult time getting my feet in these boots (resorted to the plastic bag trick). Once I did manage to get my feet in, they were extremely narrow and hurt across the top part of my foot. I know that leather boots stretch and conform to your foot eventually, but between the struggle to get them on and then the discomfort of them, I decided to return them. The length of these boots were perfect, as I always take a size 7, and had considered going up half a size, but I do not believe that would have helped with the width issue of the boot.

SPRING, TX- The suspect in the Texas shooting that killed six people, four of them children, appeared before a judge for the first time Friday, when he suddenly collapsed.
This is vigils for the victims continue from Texas to Utah.
A bizarre scene in a Texas courtroom Friday as the suspect in this week's shooting rampage that killed six people, collapsed and had to be wheeled out.
It was the first court appearance for Ron Lee Haskell, since being accused of shooting Stephen and Katie Stay, and four children, execution style.
Haskell's attorney Doug Durham, a former prosecutor, says his client is mentally ill.
"There's all sorts of reasons become psychotic from trauma in the battlefield to trauma in an emotional situation where you lose a loved one. I think the evidence will ultimately show Mr. Haskell suffered from mental illness not treated properly," said Durham.
Assistant district attorney Tammy Thomas dismissed that claim.
"Determination involved and effort and planning and the conscious decisions that were made," said Thomas.
Meanwhile, the effects of the shooting are being felt as far as Utah, where Haskell and his ex-wife once lived.
People in Logan honored the victims with a candlelight vigil.
"I think there's a lot of people around here who are saying that to themselves all the time, you know, what if it had been here, what if it had been me? But we can't live like that," said Nancy Kippen a family friend from Utah.
Police in Utah say Haskell was arrested for domestic violence there in 2008.
But even they didn't see this coming.
15-year-old Cassidy Stay is the lone survivor of the shooting.
She was released from the hospital Friday, and is expected to make a full recovery.

The city's participation in the program means more improvements for roads in the city in need of repair.
ATRIP is an Alabama Department of Transportation administered federal aid highway program that funds up to 80 percent of the construction of roadway projects.
Mayor Sonny Posey said the city will receive $2.9 million as part of the third round of the program to be used to widen and resurface Viking Drive.
In all, the city will receive more than $11.4 million from the three rounds of the program to use for improvements on Viking Drive, Airport Road ($4.2 million), Walston Bridge Road ($2.5 million), Ninth Avenue ($800,000) and Old Birmingham Highway ($600,000).
The ATRIP funding is being handled in conjunction with the Walker County Commission, which approved its participation in the third round of the program during a commission meeting earlier this week. The county will use its part of the ATRIP funding for road and bridge work on Brown's Bridge and Smith Chapel Bridge.
The agreement between the city and county is unprecedented, Posey said.
"The city and county is cooperating for, quite possibly, the first time in history," Posey said. "It's a precedent-setting action by both bodies."
The city would not have been able to participate in the program had it not been for the county commission's participation, Posey said. As part of the agreement between the city and the county, the city will assist the county by providing $420,000 in match money.
"In return for them allowing us to participate in the ATRIP program, we're going to turn around and do what we should do and participate in their project," Posey said, adding that county residents spend a large amount of money at businesses in the city.
"This will benefit both the city and the county," Posey said. "It's a win-win situation for both."
In other business, council members:
•approved having a special events alcohol license in the city's name for the Sept. 7 Foothills Festival. The move comes to avoid having to separate the three restaurants that will be part of a beer garden by fencing in order to comply with rules of the Alabama ABC Board.

The North American Theatre and Engineering Conference (NATEAC) is pleased to announce the panel lineup for its upcoming conference. The conference, to be held in New York City on July 20 and 21 2008, will offer two days of panels on topics ranging from Designing Alternative Spaces to the role of the Consultant in the Design Process.
"One of our primary goals," notes conference director Bill Sapsis, "is to establish a foundation for continuing dialog among all parties involved in the creation of performance spaces in North America. Historically, there have been limited opportunities for these people to get together and share ideas on just what makes for a good theatre. This conference establishes that foundation. The panel discussions will appeal to not only the design teams, but also to the end users. We'll definitely give all of our attendees something to talk about."
The panel list, along with other conference information, can be found on the NATEAC website. For more information please contact Bill Sapsis at 267.278.4561 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Make a Gift to the Salvation Army
Latest News / All I Want for Christmas Is a Birthday Party…...
HARTFORD – The Salvation Army is blessed knowing that
through the support of people like you, we can meet needs year-round. What
follows is the story of a birthday party, made possible by a miraculous series
of "angels" that started with one individual.
Charmaine Waul, who works at nearby Trinity College, recently visited The
Salvation Army's Marshall House Shelter to deliver winter coats and
clothing that she and her colleagues had collected. What was intended to be a
brief tour and donation drop off turned into much more. Charmaine was so moved
during her visit that she came back the very next day with bags of toys for the
children in the shelter. Her generosity, however, did not stop there. As it
would turn out, she would not be the only one to help.
One of the families that especially tugged at Charmaine's heart was a
single father and his nine-year-old daughter, Princess, who had recently come
to Marshall House when faced with homelessness. When asked what she wanted for
Christmas, Princess replied, "Let me go home and get my
list…" Staff was curious what "home" Princess was
referring to. Princess left the room and quickly returned with her list in
hand. As it turned out, she had now considered Marshall House to be her "home."
This nine-year old girl then shared her list, emphasizing the one thing she
wanted most-urgently was a "green scarf." She also asked if her gifts could be
given to her for her birthday on December 26th, rather than on Christmas.
As staff learned, the significance of this request was that although her
mother had always promised her a big birthday party, it never came to fruition
because her mother was never around when her special day arrived. This year,
Princess thought it would be different!
Lynn Naughton, Director of Operations for Marshall House, promised Princess
that she would have a birthday party. Learning about this special Christmas
wish, Charmaine let Lynn know she would provide balloons for the party and
anything else that was needed. Having accompanied her on the tour, Rachael
Bubbs, Donor Relations Assistant for The Salvation Army, was also moved and
said she would personally fulfill Princess' birthday wishes.
When asked what he wanted for Christmas, Princess' father responded
simply that he wanted a haircut for his daughter's birthday party. While
heading to the barber, their car ran out of gas. Blessed by a generous
passerby, Lauren Dziekan, the car was refueled, at no charge, and the father
went on to get his haircut, no charge, by Rick Golding of Prostyle Barber Shop.
For her party, Princess also got her hair done at Domincana Salon, and not only
did the hairdresser donate her services, she also gave Princess a tiara. She
was really beginning to feel like a Princess now.
Rachael returned to Marshall House the next afternoon with gifts. Guessing
the green scarf was of significance to Princess, she gave her this gift early.
Princess perked up at the sight of it and gave Rachael a hug. She then promptly
took the scarf, turned, threw it around her father's neck, and exclaimed
"Merry Christmas Daddy!"
Lynn completed the birthday wish by personally shopping for the largest of
the wishes for Princess' big day. While in the checkout line, she struck
up a conversation with the shopper behind her. She told him a short version of
the story behind the gift. When the cashier gave the total, Lynn heard a voice
next to her respond, "I got this." Shocked, Lynn asked for his
information to thank him, but he just replied, "It's from
Meanwhile, back at Marshall House, staff, donors, and other shelter families
were busy decorating with bright pink decorations and a poster of a princess.
Dr. Miguel Colan of Connecticut Chiropractic Center, when hearing of
Princess' wish, got her a cake. A dress had also been donated for
Princess to wear on her special day. The generosity seemed to be multiplying
with every new act of kindness.
When it came time for the party, Princess was overcome with wonder and
surprise when she finally entered the room. Tears of joy streamed down her face
as she looked around at the beautiful decorations and warm smiles on everyone
there. She certainly had never experienced anything like this before in her
lifetime. Everyone at the shelter – staff and residents, attended –
it was a party! Marshall House provided milkshakes and plenty of treats.
Princess was so grateful that she personally passed out goodie bags for
everyone there.
After the birthday party was over, her father, still amazed, responded,
"I am simply overwhelmed. It was so beautiful. This was by far the best
birthday I have ever experienced. Thank you to all of the moms at the Marshall
House and Ms. Lynn." These moms he referenced are some of the mothers of
other families at the Marshall House who help him care for Princess like she is
one of their own.
"I felt honored and privileged to be able to spend time with The
Salvation Army and its Marshall House and to make one little girl's
Christmas dream come true," said Charmaine.
The Salvation Army is extraordinarily thankful for those who help us make
miracles every day. Whether responding to a natural disaster or hosting a
birthday party for a little girl, we at The Salvation Army want you to know our
gratitude for the many ways you make our services possible for people who need
hope and encouragement during some very dark times in their lives. This story
is a testament to what can happen when good people come together to help
Together, we will make 2014 a year of hope and possibility for the
discouraged. We pray that you have a happy and healthy New Year!
The Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church established in 1865, has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination for 130 years in the United States. Nearly 30 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year through the broadest array of social services that range from providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless and opportunities for underprivileged children. 84 cents of every dollar spent is used to support those services in 5,000 communities nationwide.
Mission StatementThe Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian church.
Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.

Earlier this fall, women had the opportunity to apply to participate in the challenge. A committee of community representatives selected eight women based on their need to improve one or more risk factors such as high blood pressure and cholesterol, smoking, weight, and lack of exercise.
A special tribute will also be made at the Luncheon in honor of women veterans. A special table at the Luncheon will be filled with women who have served or are currently serving in the military.
The Go Red For Women Luncheon, presented by Parkview Health, will take place on Friday, Nov. 11, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne. A limited number of tickets are still available and may be purchased by calling Jessica Schaffer at 800-229-1503. Tickets must be purchased in advance. Tickets are $100. For more information, visit Heart.org/FortWayne.
The goal for the annual Go Red For Women Luncheon is $85,000, which would be used to fund lifesaving research, educational programs, and advocacy efforts targeting heart disease in women.
Cardiovascular disease, which claims 460,000 lives annually, is the No. 1 cause of death among women. In fact, 1 in 3 women will be affected by heart disease during their lifetime.
Go Red BetterU is a free 12-week online nutrition and fitness program that can makeover your heart. Each week focuses on a different area and provides step-by-step guidance. The site provides everything from daily expert tips and an online journal to a downloadable BetterMe coaching tool.
Go Red For Women is sponsored nationally by Macy's and Merck.

There are new developments surrounding last year's death of a valley boy at a Coronado mansion. It was deemed an accident, but his mother wants the investigation reopened.
Authorities in Coronado ruled Max Shacknai fell over the second floor railing to the bottom of the stairs, but two experts hired by the boy's mom disagree. Max is the son of Jonah Shacknai, founder and CEO of Scottsdale-based Medicis Pharmaceuticals Corporation.
The two experts came to the same conclusion. They both believe the evidence is not consistent with an accident. They think Max Shacknai's death may have been the result of an assault.
"We presented them science and real science doesn't lie," says Dina Shacknai. "I know my son. He wouldn't fly off the banister like Superman because that wasn't his nature."
6-year-old Max Shacknai died after falling from the second story of his father's Coronado mansion.
This is the scenario put forward by investigators in San Diego: that Max accidentally fell over the banister, hitting his head on the way down.
But in their reports, both forensic pathologists point to the height of the banister in that mansion. They both say Max's center of gravity, whether he was on foot or on a scooter, would be too low to cause him to fall over.
One of them writes... "A more reasonable scenario, one that is both consistent with the injuries observed on the deceased and consistent with the scene measurements, is that Maxfield was assaulted by another person at the hallway, near the banister on the second floor."
In some of the picture from the scene, you can see damage to the banister. Max was under his father's girlfriend's care when this all happened. She was found dead a few days later. Her death was ruled a suicide.
Even though he disagrees with the authorities' explanation, one of the experts writes... "I cannot affirmatively state exactly what happened… I also am unable to determine the initiating event and who was at fault at the time of the subject accident."
Dina Shacknai told us, "The findings on his body and the scene, the evidence of the scene. The environment of the scene doesn't match that scenario at all... it has been about ten days and we are hopeful that they will reopen this case and amend the disposition of this case."
Lea Corbin from the Coronado Police stated: "We did meet with Dina Shacknai last week and will review the information provided." A time frame was not given.

Gomobile has been instrumental in helping me get my cell phone store up and running. They helped me acquire inventory at the best price, all of the software I needed to do business, and assisted with the sales process until I got the hang of it. Highly recommended!
I come from a financial services background so the cell phone business was a fairly foreign concept for me. After doing my due diligence I decided that I wanted to pursue a multi store strategy in my area. Go Mobile representatives were there to help with that every step of the way. I have recommended their services to my colleagues.
I started doing business with Gomobiledirect in October of 2009. Fast forward to August 1st of 2013 and we are still here and thriving. Thank you guys!

FUQUAY-VARINA — Millbrook made all the big plays in its season opener against Fuquay-Varina, coming through with a 23-8 victory on Friday.
Wildcat junior Marcus Marshall scored twice, including an 81-yard punt return in the third quarter. Millbrook senior defensive end Sam Blue scored the games first points on a 54-yard fumble return in the first period to give the Wildcats the early momentum.
The Bengals outgained the Wildcats in yardage, with 257 yards to Millbrooks 209, but were unable to come up with enough big plays. Eric Sugarman scored for Fuquay-Varina with 2:42 remaining in the game to prevent the shutout. Daniel Neikens added the conversion run.
The kids made some big plays and I thought our defense was strong all night, said Millbrook coach Clarence Inscore. This is a big win for us against a physical team and we wanted to be tested. Im really proud of our kids.
Blues strip of a F-V ball carrier and alert play to pick the ball up and score set the tone for the game.
We never really settled down after that fumble, said first year F-V coach Jeb Hall. Give a lot of credit to Millbrook, but Im proud of our kids effort. We made some mistakes but we can get a lot better fast.
Wildcat senior Daminick Wilkins rushed for 92 yards, while a leaping 36-yard catch from Brandon Goldsmith set up a Jarrett Cervi 20-yard field goal just before halftime to put Millbrook ahead 16-0.
F-V senior Tyler Williams and junior Damarus Williams accounted for 195 of the Bengals rushing yards.

Ram JV baseball went into extra-innings on Monday, before they were upended at Clinton, 8-7.
The Rams counted coup early, scoring all seven of their runs in the first four innings, but then the well went dry. Clinton finally got the game-winner in the bottom of the 8th.
Sheldon Meyer was 2-for-4 with a double and two runs. Bart Kennell was 2-for-4 with two runs. Garrett Brachbill was 2-for-5 with a double and two runs, while Ryan Stenger was 2-for-5.
All the Ram hitters reached base, but only four Rams, at the top of the order, scored all seven runs. Four Ram hitters had multiple hits, three hit safely, and the other two got free passes. Dylan Patch was the Ram starting pitcher.

The prime-time match-up between the Browns and the Bills may not kick off until 8:25 p.m., but fans were up and at 'em early on Thursday morning.
The only problem? The Muni Lot did not open to tailgaters until noon. At this time, vehicles will be allowed to use the eastern lot. At 5:30 p.m., cars will be allowed in both portions of the lot.
Remember there are no in and out privileges. No tailgating will be permitted before the noon open time of the lot.
For weekend games, the Municipal Lot opens at 7 a.m.
