Ele's Center to open in Grand Rapids in May
Caroline MacGregor
January 24, 2013 | WGVU
The new Ele's Place in Grand Rapids will be housed within the Third Reformed Church on Michigan Street. The weekly support group programs are secular, but Ele's Place President and CEO Laurie Baumer says the church facilities and welcoming nature of the church's leaders are a good fit as far as a supporting environment in which to heal.
The new center's Managing Director is Grand Rapids native, Gerilyn May. In 2010, Gerilyn lost her 17-year-old son Steven to a tragic accident. Since then she has made it her mission to provide a supportive haven for children and teens to grieve here in West Michigan.
"We saw many kids grieving and we saw a lot of kids take different paths. All of them had wonderful family support systems but I really believe if an Ele's place was in West Michigan at that time I know so many families that would have taken avantage of it."
Gerilyn says hundreds of Steven's friends and classmates were devastated by the loss of their friend.
"Many of these kids ended up going to college four or five months later and ended up feeling really isolated because; some of them were with friends who walked this grief journey alone and that's why I'm really passionate about what Ele's Place does because I really want to help other kids experiencing grief so they know that they are not in it alone, isolated but that there are services out there to help them walk through their grief journey."
Figures from the US census bureau shows one in every twenty children experience the loss of a parent, which in Kent and Ottawa counties alone, equates to 11-thousand grieving children. Gerilyn believes Ele's Place will offer children and teens, like Stephen's friends and classmates, a place to work through their grief and move forward with their lives.
Families can start enrolling now for the programs which are provided at no cost and are funded through donations and philanthropic dollars. The center hopes to open May 1st and is currently assembling a community board and recruiting staff and volunteers. Training for volunteer facilitators will be held in April.

GENEVA and BANGALORE, India, March 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Infosys, a global leader in consulting, technology, and outsourcing solutions announced today that it has successfully delivered a Strategic Financial Systems (SFS) program for SITA, one of the world's leading specialists in air transport communications and IT solutions. The award-winning SFS program is one of the most geographically complex ERP-enabled finance transformations ever undertaken.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130122/589162 )
Designed by Infosys and SITA's SFS program team, and enabled by Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1, SFS can efficiently process accounting transactions for 310 legal entities worldwide operating in 125 currencies with a globally distributed user base of 4,500 people, and support the filing of tax returns in over 150 countries worldwide.
SITA expects the SFS program will deliver, in excess of 20 percent, direct operational savings and efficiencies within the finance function over four years. It has laid a strong foundation to help SITA improve the service and business value delivered to internal customers and member shareholders globally.
- The SFS program, comprising a joint team of Infosys consultants and internal SITA resources, designed and implemented the new 'SFS solution,' which has transformed SITA's finance and procurement operating model by creating a Global Finance Center to manage their geographical complexity. This program has delivered a standardized and fully integrated transaction processing, reporting and analysis solution in a truly global context.
- The Infosys / SITA team simplified a complex and fragmented legacy IT landscape by implementing a single global instance of Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 and integrating it with Oracle's Hyperion and Business Intelligence solution.
- The Infosys / SITA team also deployed a new global payment platform and enhanced treasury operations functionality to drive significant improvements in cash management globally.
- SFS has also made business planning, budgeting, and forecasting capabilities more efficient and helped improve resource utilization, product and project profitability calculations. This is helping finance teams at SITA deliver faster, more accurate and insightful analysis of financial performance within a target five-day close window.
- SITA's purchasing team can now extend its services to its locations globally with online procurement catalogues that aggregate and target spending to help improve buying efficiencies, and support the efficient processing of 10,000 accounts payable invoices a month.
- The new SFS solution has unified and dramatically simplified master data and accounting structures for SITA, driving enhanced compliance and internal controls, and supporting audit capabilities across the globe.
- Owned by the air transport community, SITA has around 450 members from over 300 legal entities and more than 2,800 customers across 198 countries and territories.
Colm O'Higgins, Chief Financial Officer, SITA:
"The transformation of finance and procurement functions and processes is one of the key contributors to the overall transformation of SITA. The SFS program enables our finance teams to operate with increased precision, agility and reliability, supporting airline and airport operations in 198 countries worldwide and delivering efficient operations to support our future success. Infosys has been an excellent transformation partner, bringing not only deep Oracle experience and innovative solutions, but also the necessary consulting and execution excellence around business process, systems and data design, organizational change management and value realization."
Prasad Thrikutam, Global Head of Energy, Communications and Services, Infosys:
"The establishment of world-class financial systems and processes will help SITA improve its day-to-day operations and provide its management with information to make faster and better decisions. It will help SITA deliver tangible business value to its customers and member shareholders across the air transport industry."
The success of this unprecedented global initiative has been recognized with Oracle Corporation awarding SITA an 'Excellence Award - Oracle Fusion Middleware Innovation for Business Analytics' at its annual Oracle OpenWorld conference in 2013.

"I purchase these adhesive gift tags so I don't need a card to attach cards to a children's birthday gift. they rarely care about the card and it often becomes detached. I made a set of these with a picture of my boys and their names. Everyone loves them! It's also helpful for the parents to know who the gift is from in large classes. I know I'm more likely to recognize a photo than a name."
"I bought these to label my daughter's birthday favors. I have not used them yet, but they are a well made product and I bought the matching invitation. They feel like good quality stickers and look beautiful."
"I used these labels to place on goody bags for my 4 year olds birthday party. It had his picture, the date of the party and thanked the guests for coming. I had so many comments on how great the labels were."
"I used this label to put on water bottles at our 11th Annual Wild Game Potluck and people were just tickled pink at the personalization and craftyness. They were peeling them off to save as momentum!"
"The description says these are for "mother/daughter" occasions, but I thought it was cute for a big sister/little sister combo gift. We just welcomed our 2nd daughter, so I got these for the many family birthday parties to which both girls are invited. Everyone loves the visual of the big bird/ little bird."

Affordable-housing advocates in New York City are pushing city officials to relax rules restricting rental units in home basements, cellars and attics. Changing the rules that are meant to protect renters' health and safety would add units to the market, help homeowners pay their mortgages and house some of the city's growing population. "There are a lot of units that are perfectly safe that can't be made legal under current rules," City Councilman Brad Lander said.

We are four persons (Couple in late 30s and two kids aged 11 and 8) - Indians.
We are planning to travel to two countries out of Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland on a family vacation.
Period of travel is for 17 days in mid May 2013 including travel time from India.
We wont be self driving. Journey through rail and ferries are preferred. We are also open to the idea of using domestic flights.
Budget would be moderate on a scale of budget - moderate - luxury though we understand that some of these countries are costly.
Art museums are not on our must see list.
We had earlier been to Germany and Austria in Europe.
Nature and History attracts us.
Something of interest for the kids is desirable.

I need inputs to frame my decision regarding the countries to visit considering the period of the year, accompanying kids and our constraints as mentioned in my previous post.
Had gathered information through internet but in an unstructured manner.

You could do something similar to what we did in June of this year:
fly into Stockholm 4 nights
fly to Oslo 3 nights
train to Bergen stopping in fjords for 2/3 nights
Bergen 2 nights
fly to Copenhagen 4 nights
fly home from Copenhagen -

Iceland and the Norwegian fjords are a nature-lover's delight, we were there last month and I can't describe how beautiful it was. Your kids should enjoy Iceland's geysers and hot springs, maybe horse riding too. But all these places are extremely expensive, so be forewarned.

I am afraid there is no budget or even moderate in Scandinavia. Costs are sky high for everything - typically almost double those of the rest of western europe.
I think they are beautiful countries with a ton to see and do - but definitely a high budget trip.
I found Stockholm and Copenhagen to be by far the most interesting cities. And there are interesting day trips from both.
Oslo is cute - but small. The fjords are gorgeous - but I find the countryside in Norway to be flat and dreary - lots of scrub oak and not much to look at.
Before you go too far with your plans I would look at very specific costs. I haven't been in 3 years - but have been reading and apparently even the most basic meal is about US$ 40 per person - so $160 for dinner for your family. -

Just went this past June to Scandinavia...still expensive. Nearly $50 for lunch at Subway in Oslo. One 12" sandwich, one six inch sandwich, 2 chips and one drink (I always just have water). I about fell over when I did the math in my head. That same meal runs about $18 or less here in the US.

We spent a month in Iceland with three kids, two of similar age. It is a nature and adventure paradise and more affordable now than it has ever been especially if you choose cheaper hostel style or sleeping bag accommodation.
It's a very easy travelling destination, and every kind of adventure you want available to you from the totally free to the most expensive and elaborate.
We've a season of posts and information on Iceland for families on our blog here:
or contact me via forum or website for more specific advice. If you like nature and adventure it is up there in our top destination in the whole of Europe for family adventure travel.

To examine the influence of diet and age on organochlorine contaminant (OC) concentrations in two closely related ringed seal (Phoca hispida) populations enantiomeric fractions (EFs) of chiral contaminants and stable isotopes of nitrogen (δ15N) and carbon (δ13C) were measured along with OCs in ringed seals collected from the east and west side of the Northwater Polynya. Seals from these two locations were feeding at the same trophic level based on δ15N values in muscle but had slightly different sources of carbon based on δ13C measurements in muscle. After removing the influence of age, sex, and blubber thickness, OC concentrations did not vary between ringed seals from the east and west side of the polynya. ΣPCB, ΣDDT, and Σchlordane were found to increase with age for both male and female seals. The inclusion of older (>20 years) female seals, which may have a reduced reproductive effort, may influence the relationships in females. Stable isotopes failed to describe OC concentrations in ringed seals suggesting that diet was not a major factor in variation of OC concentrations within this ringed seal population. Cis- and trans-chlordane, oxychlordane, and heptachlor epoxide were all nonracemic in the ringed seal blubber but did not vary with age, sex, or collection site. α-HCH appeared racemic (enantiomeric fraction = 0.50 ± 0.01) in the seals, although this EF is different than those previously observed in their prey species, and was found to vary significantly with age. EF values in the ringed seals varied considerably from other Arctic marine mammals and seabirds, providing addition evidence that the type(s) and characteristic(s) of the enzymes involved in biotransformation of chiral OCs vary between these organisms.

This lace #wedding dress is just beautiful www.finditforwedd...
This was snared from a friend, Joan, who said she'd never be skinny enough to wear this gorgeous gown. Me either! But it is so beautful and romantic
Paolo Sebastian-I don't know where I would wear it but it's very pretty. I want it in emerald green though.
I love the structure and open back! Also the lace of the dress matches that of my mom's wedding dress and veil so I can easily add parts of her old dress to mine and maybe even wear her veil.

You only read it for the cool bands, right?
By Tom Breihan on February 12, 2009 at 8:00 a.m. EST
Above: T-shirt designs by Jay Reatard and MGMT
Hey, you know when you're in a band and a venerable soft-porn magazine asks you to design a T-shirt? What? It happens.
It's been happening for a couple of years now, actually. Since 2007, Playboy has been doing an annual promotion called Rock the Rabbit , wherein musicians design T-shirts inspired by Playboy's iconic bunny logo. They feature these shirts in the magazine and sell them on Shopthebunny .com , donating a portion of the proceeds to charity. They also put MP3s and interviews and stuff like that on their website. Everybody wins.
In 2007 , Playboy convinced luminaries like the Flaming Lips, Metric, Soulwax , and, um, Lil Jon to take part. Last year , they snagged Daft Punk, T.I., Duran Duran, the Shins, the Pipettes, and Iggy Pop, among others. And Playboy has just unveiled this year's lineup of Rock the Bunny contributors: A- Trak, Chromeo , Diplo , Dragonette , Eulogies, Harlem Shakes, Jackson Swinton , Jay Reatard , Kenan Bell, Lady Sovereign, MGMT , Midnight Juggernauts, Mötley Crüe , Perry Farrell, Pharrell Williams, Q-Tip, Röyksopp , the Kooks, the Gay Blades, the Morning Benders, the Wedding Present ( WTF? - Ed. ), and Yelle . Pretty good roll call there! I just can't help but wonder what Mötley Crüe thinks of the other participating bands.
A bunch of this year's artists will also appear in a fashion spread in the magazine's March 2009 issue, fully clothed and everything. Rock photographer Mick Rock took all the snaps. Also, Playboy is hosting another SXSW party ( Last year's was fun. ) Oh, and former Danity Kane front-chick Aubrey O'Day appears on the cover, if you're into that sort of thing.
Here's some more of the SFW graphic goodness that this year's crop of artists have bestowed upon Playboy :

Fab's Top 10 Fall Shows
Are you all ready for Fall? Ha. I know you're on the verge of pouncing on Spring shopping, but it's always nice to know what's to come in your fashion future. The curtain has closed on the Fall shows. As expected, it was a tame season, but that doesn't mean it was boring. One city in particular disappointed (sorry Milan) while one (Paris) supplied the grand finale. Some of my favorites continued to dazzle (Louis Vuitton, pictured) and a couple surprises (Hussein Chalayan, Adam Lippes) reminded me that fashion is ever evolving. Without further ado . . .

Im originally from Iran but grew up in dubai and lived in the UK for past 7 years, moved to Montreal to continue my studies, love to socialise and go meet new places and people.
Behzad has completed online and offline ID verification.
We really enjoy our stay at Behzad's place. The studio it's really nice and well organized, all the things of Behzad are inside. The neighborhood it's fine and the house it's really close to the metro (Guy/Concordia), really important for the winter. The communication with Behzad was perfect, he always answer in few hours.
Absolutely the worst guest I have ever had! Behzad left the boat a complete mess and he tampered with everything that he had no business of going through, he left all his trash and the galley a complete disaster. I do not recommend him at all, unless you want your property trashed and disrespected.
Simple, gentil et efficace ! Très bon visiteur!
Hosting Behzad was an easy experience. He left my house in nice order and had great suggestions on how I could enhance the experience. Thanks Behzad!
Behzad was a perfect guest. It was very easy to communicate. He's a very interesting person, very clean and quiet. I highly recommend him as a guest

Why? The Nagging Question
We routinely speak of "the problem of evil." But during the Christian era there have been two main problems of evil, and it is important to distinguish these, as well as how Christians ought to respond to them. Let us …Read More
For the last four years, I have spoken at a conference on the West Coast called "Resolved." The name is drawn from the Resolutions of Jonathan Edwards and is aimed at college students and "twenty-somethings" in the next generation. As …Read More
Mere Coincidence?
I've been interested in so-called coincidences since I was a child. In fact, my first research paper of any substance during high school was on the subject of coincidences. I recently ran across this old paper, which I wrote …Read More
The Lord of Light and Love
What is God? One of the most common answers today is, "God is love," evoking images of a grandfatherly, cuddly type. The problem here is not the phrase itself but the meaning we attach to the word love. According to …Read More
Old-Fashioned Accountability
I have a good friend who thinks I am too old-fashioned. Through all the years we've known each other, he has never ceased to remind me of his observation. And while I certainly try to maintain an age-appropriate outlook …Read More
The Ark of the Covenant
It seems that every year a new children's story Bible comes out. The captivating artwork often makes the biblical stories come alive. There is one picture in a particular story Bi ble our family has that my two-and-a-half-year-old, Elijah …Read More
Divine Architect
The term economic Trinity has nothing to do with money. It has everything to do with love. God is love, and the plurality of the Godhead is an expression of love. Love requires multiplicity; that is, love requires an object …Read More
Hope in Life and Death
One of the first Reformed authors I ever read was Sinclair Ferguson. I was a dispensationalist in transition at the time, and I ran across a little book titled The Christian Life: A Doctrinal Introduction by Dr. Ferguson. I started …Read More
Says Who?
It is a rather tedious and tiresome thing to pull the legs out from under our national confession. Our country's creed is not just internally inconsistent, nor is it just incomprehensible, it is both these things. That is, it …Read More
The Holy Love of God
Long ago, Augustine of Hippo pointed out that the desire of every human heart is to experience a love that is transcendent. Regrettably for us today, however, I don't think there's any word in the English language that …Read More
Divine Incomprehensibility
What can we know about God? That's the most basic question of theology, for what we can know about God and whether we can know anything about Him at all determine the scope and content of our study. Here …Read More
The Patience of God
You have all seen the buttons some Christians wear, haven't you? It's an acrostic — PBPGINFWMY — "Please Be Patient God Is Not Finished With Me Yet." It's a request for others to be patient with us as we …Read More
The Church: Your Story
Why is this happening to me? What is my purpose in this life? If God is so powerful, then why does He allow me to be treated this way by people who are opposed to Him? Will God ever give …Read More
United in Truth and Love
Summers are traditionally a time for vacation, and that was certainly true of my youth. Besides journeys to visit grandparents and time spent on the beach, however, summers during my high school years usually involved one kind of church retreat …Read More
The Trinity and Culture
The doctrine of the Trinity is not only essential for good theology. Getting the Trinity right is also essential for love, politics, and art. God is an absolute union of three distinct persons. Thus, Scripture teaches that "God is love …Read More

Found these two photos researching Pocono Drag Lodge. The car is the Honesdale Honker. I'm sure the engine photo is correct for the 64 Nova. Would the owner/caretaker of these photos please raise your hand. Everyone would like to know more about this car.
