Short Stories
- At the US Embassy there was a woman with three children. She and one child held USA passports. Two of her children had passports from some other Caribbean nation. (I don't remember which one.) She thought I was an Embassy employee and pleaded her case to me. I explained what I knew and that anyone leaving at this time had to have a valid US Passport. She then asked me if I would take her two kids so she and the one child could leave.
- After I left the Embassy a young man helped me get the bags our kids had to leave behind out of the gate and into the car. He then accepted a fair amount of money for his help and we asked him if he wanted a baby stroller that was left behind (just the wheels and not the car-seat part - the car seat part was given away in the night) -- you have never seen anyone so thankful to be given a little cart with four wheels. Troy got in the car and cried based on that man's gratitude for such a tiny little thing.
- A phone call came that a man had been walking since Tuesday night from the south part of the island. They asked if he could come to us for medical help or help getting to the US Embassy. They said he had been vomiting and walking for days without much rest. He never showed up here.
- Mass graves are being used, the bodies are seen stacked in trucks and around town. Many people will be buried without their families ever knowing where they were when they died.
- Plans are underway to open a clinic to serve our area. We need prayers that the plane is allowed to land with our people and supplies. They are supposed to be able to get in in the next 36 hours but we pray that it actually comes to pass. We cannot begin without them.
- Water purification in the form of a safe chlorine product is being made around the clock and will be distributed for people to add to their dirty water source and be able to make it safe to drink.
- Logistically speaking - things are beyond imaginable. We are considering things like "where do we put medical waste, amputated parts, etc.? "Where do people who need IV's around the clock to kill bad infection need to be housed?" We know the world is praying and we thank you and ask you to continue to do so for weeks and months to come.
- There will be people specifically in place to pray with and comfort the dying. Once I know who is doing that I will ask you to pray for them by name. That task is of incredible importance.
With love and gratitude for the support,

Still praying, with such heavy hearts. Sending money as well. Obama, Bush, Clinton did a press conference this am and told us all that we need to send CASH. We will, have heart, it's coming. I'm praying the compassion of American's will be UNLEASHED in cash and that Haitian's will experience Christ's love through this tragedy. Lifting you and your family up Tara. And of course the precious people of Haiti.
Your Sister,

I commented to Licia these words this morning and my soul has been burdened again to pray this for you and Troy and the rest of the Heartline staff.
"I am praying so much that God can take all of the death and destruction and chaos that surrounds you to stir your heart and strengthen you. To build your endurance and create in you such compassion and tenderness and loyalty that those who are suffering great loss and grieving so deeply around you will look upon you with awe and wonder because they no longer see the person they once knew, but rather, they see Christ ever so clearly."
Take up strength from the LORD - we are praying for all of you.

The prayer thing for the dying is a great thing. We had prayer teams at the morgue after 9-11-01 to pray for the workers and families having to identify the bodies. That is a precious ministry.
Praying for you all to have clear heads and sleep when you need it! God is beside you all the way....

I have no idea how I first came across your blog, but I've also been glued to it the last few days. Thank you for helping us realize just how real the situation is there...it's not just another news story. My heart is aching for the people of Haiti and we are praying, for sure. My husband works for World Vision and thankfully, they are making a difference - as much as they can right now anyways! Thank you for keeping us informed. Praying!

Regarding - JAMIE AND ALI AT BREBIS -
Troy and Jamie have direct contact. She told him she was okay. He told her to call him the minute she was not okay. She has not called and we cannot risk two hours on the road based on news coming from the USA -- if Jamie needs water she only needs to call or text Troy by Digicel phone. We cannot tell if you guys in the USA have old or new news so we have to hear it from people on the ground in Haiti. Thanks for understanding.

Prayers for your ministry being raised here in my home in California. We lived through the quake in '94 -- near epicenter. Know a little of what you're going through, so prayers about the water purification, the search and rescue personnel, the diesel fuel, the orgainization and calmness of aid workers, especially God's sustaining you and Troy. We're sending you as much money as we can through the Pay Pal donation on your blog. The blog world is learning about your site. I'll help to broadcast.

Thank you for giving us an update and glimpse into what is happening in Haiti. We are praying for God's mercy and provision on that people. Be assured the world is praying, and weeping as well. Almost every church I know of is taking up an offering tomorrow for Haiti. I hope that is encouraging to you.
We had a meeting and discussed whether or not to go to Haiti (not this moment, but at a later time) or just send money. Your comment about having people be there ministering to the dying - and to those who have been left behind - reminded me of why I hope to be able to one day come and work, to minister, to show love to people who must be broken beyond belief. We will be looking for opportunities in the days to come.

Isaiah 61:4
Isaiah 61:1-4
The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.
Bless you guys.

Livesay family...I just love you all. I hope that doesn't offend you because I know I don't know you, but I know I would love you even AFTER knowing you. I am praying for you...I really am.
I keep thinking about destiny and about how God knew all along he would be using your family in such a way at this very moment....about how God loves the Haitians so much that he would send them the Livesay famliy (and others like you)...and about how God love's your family so much that he is protecting and guiding you and raising up people the world over to pray for you. I can't possibly imagine what your going through right now, but I am so thankful for you and trust that God will see to your needs.
I really hope that I can meet you someday.

Hi, Troy and Hi, Tara! I don't mean to be rude by calling you two by your first names, but, I've got to say, your blog is amazing and just super inspiring!
You wouldn't mind if I print this out for my French homework, would you? I need to find something about Haiti and it needs to be factual, and your blog just puts it all out there! Don't worry, I'm going to print the actual page out, so my teacher can see who made it and where it's from.
Questions: I would like to know, because I don't know much, about the lady in the start of the story.. what happened to her two kids? Are they alright?
That's all.
Oh, and I would like to thank you, for just inspiring and encouraging everyone in the world to want to help you and others so badly. Even if I'm only in high school, and I can't donate money without my parents, I will continue to tell others this story and remind them that you need our support. I hope I'm not too late on this, though!
Good Luck & God Bless,
Gillian & Family
We will continue to pray for you all!
P.S. The URL given to you is my profile for a website. I will have my email posted on there just in case you need to contact me. Thanks!

Since one is working with young and impressionable minds, it is imperative that all teaching methods and managing methodologies are worked out perfectly. After all, you are shaping a country's future!
Kindergarten teachers are trained in managing children effectively. They are required to plan and implement specific programs for classrooms. They are trained to plan and execute activities conducive to the physical and emotional needs of the children that they are responsible for.
A kindergarten teaching applying for a job in this capacity will need to be very careful in what he or she writes as a resume objectives as this is a sensitive position. Let us have a look at a few examples of a kindergarten teacher's resume objectives:
Kindergarten Teacher Objective Examples
• Looking for a position as a Kindergarten Teacher with Young Ones where I may use my exceptional skills for managing young minds to develop both academically and socially
• Seeking a position as a Kindergarten Teacher at Gymboree utlizing my skills in devising appropriate developmental activities for young children
• To obtain a Kindergarten Teacher position with Rainbow Hearts where my keen skills in child analytic and ability to work cooperatively and communicate effectively is used to manage the perfect learning environment for children
• A Kindergarten Teacher position at Litchfield Elementary School District #79. Offering profound capability to understand young students' educational and emotional needs and striving to fulfill them appropriately
• To acquire a position as a Kindergarten Teacher utilizing my ability in creating interactive study programs conducive to a non-competitive environment and assisting children to develop both socially and educationally

Study reveals how high-fat diet during pregnancy increases risk of stillbirth
06/08/11 Portland, Ore.
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology's Antonio Frias, MD, weighs in on study
Surprisingly, eating a fatty diet has negative consequences regardless of whether the mother is obese or slender.
The study was conducted at the OHSU Oregon National Primate Research Center. Because the placental structure of the Japanese macaque is very similar to that in humans, cause and effect can be better established. The researchers hope their work will inform expectant moms and their physicians about the inherent dangers of a high-calorie, high-fat diet.

Joomla Vs Wordpress
Posted 05 April 2012 - 09:52 PM
Which is better to use Joomla or Wordpress? What are the difference between this two?
Posted 18 April 2012 - 03:29 AM
They are both good, both of them have some pros and cons, depending on what you need. But Joomla is more dificult for a beginner.
Posted 18 May 2012 - 11:57 AM
Joomla is excellent for its feathers and it is the world' s most popular open source CMS (content management system). With millions of websites running on Joomla the WordPress!

both are Content Management System and both are very known to the users.you can use any of the two to make your site good enough.
Posted 11 July 2012 - 10:10 PM
I think both work, however I got lots of downtime encountered when I used joomla while on wordpress it's really hard to apply some codes on it since some aren't compatible. How about Drupal? Our outsourcing website is Drupal CMS, and it works super OK.

Joomla is pretty easy to learn and at the same time it is a very powerful control panel all these project we developed on Joomla http://compass.com.p...alog&Itemid=382 , there are lots of extensions which help you to build website http://joomlaboat.com/
Wordpress, is used more for blogs.
Posted 09 August 2012 - 11:20 AM
I have used Joomla years ago when i was building travel guides. As a content management system is good but it is more difficult to use than Wordpress for a beginner. Extending it is very easy as there are hundreds of components and modules. One of the things i was not happy was that all the sites were slow and that if I wanted to do some customisation then i always had to work many hours to find out how it is done or hire a developer to do it for me.
Wordpress easier to use for a beginner. It is also a lot easier to customise. With the time you can also do things your self. Again, everything depends on you needs, skills and future plans.
Posted 23 August 2012 - 07:02 PM
I love WordPress, because its flexibility, there are thousands of plugin to extend its functionality and works faster than Joomla.
Posted 12 October 2012 - 10:32 AM
I use both wordpress and Joomla and find Joomla good for the complicated stuff but less forgiving and wordpress easy as pie but not as customisable. So big stuff that needs loads of customisation use Joomla, and for building neat little sites use Wordpress. I used Wordpress to build my site http://www.bohaglass.co.uk but used Joomla to build this site as it was far bigger and more complicated http://www.exclusivegp.com

If you want a website with the best SEO, use WordPress, but also nice if you use Joomla for a powerful web interface.
Posted 04 October 2013 - 07:07 AM

Posted 09 December 2013 - 04:30 AM

In my opinion, we can easily learn joomla without any external assistance compare to wordpress. For further reference. Go to: http://www.apptha.co...ress-vs-joomla/

Money can't buy you happiness that's true as hell
from J. Cole (Ft. Jhene Aiko) – Sparks Will Fly Lyrics on Genius
A play on the popular idiom 'Money Can't Buy You Happiness'. Though Cole agrees with the statement, he points out that he wants more out of life than just happiness, specifically the new Mercedes Benz SL, which would require quite a bit of money.
Fabolous said it best:

VIENNA, Va., May 23, 2012 — In the early days of the Derby and horseracing, young black guys epitomized thoroughbred racing's top riders. Men like Isaac Murphy and Jimmy Winkfield were the leading jocks, much in demand and consistent winners.
Years passed and then lithe white youngsters began to take over the jockey ranks, and soon the black riders had no mounts. While this seems unfair (and was), it also promoted a host of white riders who continue in today's racing.
Now we have seen a jockey newcomer Mario Gutierrez, born in Mexico, win both the Derby and the Preakness, and headed for the Belmont Stakes next month and maybe the Triple Crown.
It seemed like a good time to look at a stellar jockey from days past, Earl Sande, one of the elite 11 who have won the elusive Crown. However, this one had a poem written about him, which sets him apart. Plus some of the records of the inimitable Sande still stand.
He was born November 13, 1898, in Groton, South Dakota, moving with his family to Idaho when he was nine years old. He began racing in 1918, and by 1921 he was the country's leading rider as well as in 1923 and 1927.
Sande was not the typical model of a jockey at first blush. He was said to be too tall. A serious accident in 1924 at Saratoga almost cost him his life, and after many months of rehabilitation, he came back in 1925 to win the Derby aboard Flying Ebony.
However, the next couple of years were bad ones for Sande: he became ill and went through the death of his wife as well, but by 1927, he was again the top winning rider. Three years later he won the Kentucky Derby on Gallant Fox, known as the "super horse," then the Preakness, and finally the Belmont Stakes.
In today's era of super sports heroes, Earl Sande would be right up there with them. He rode horses who are only the stuff of legends today, including Man O' War (who never ran in the Derby, by the way.)
Sande's record included five wins at the Belmont Stakes; three Kentucky Derby wins; one Preakness victory; and one Triple Crown when he rode Gallant Fox, coming out of retirement to do so. He thus belongs to an extremely small and exclusive club: one the 11 Triple Crown jockeys.
One writer described him as a "master tactician, he studied the competition and knew what they were going to do." He also differed from most of the jockeys who stayed in hotels when out of town; Sande bedded down in a stable with the horses.
Finally he switched from riding to training, and in 1938 led the ranks of money-winning trainers, making him the first individual to lead in both riding horses and training them. We always say that close doesn't count, but in Earl Sande's case, it's pretty darn good. He was hired to train a colt named Howard's Stagehand, who pulled an upset in a race with Seabiscuit, a photo finish win event at Santa Anita.
It was after his second Kentucky Derby win in 1925, that newspaperman, author, and horseracing gambler Damon Runyon wrote a poem, which put Earl Sande in the books forever:
There Never Was a Guy So Handy as Sande
Maybe there'll be another,
Heady and game and true -
Maybe we'll find his brother
At driving them horses through.
Maybe – but, say, I doubt it,
Never his like again –
Never a handy guy like Sande
Bootin' them babies in.
Maybe we'll find another
Maybe in 90 years;
Maybe we'll find his brother
With his brains above his ears.
Maybe – I'll lay against it
A million bucks to a fin –
Never a handy guy like Sande,
Bootin' them babies in.
Poor health finally forced Sande's retirement from racing and he moved west to Oregon. He was inducted into the first Racing Hall of Fame class in 1955 and died in Oregon on August 21, 1968.
