A pressure sore (bed sore) is an injury to the skin caused by constant pressure. This often occurs when a person lies in bed or sits in a wheelchair for a long time. Pressure sores usually form over bony areas such as the hips, lower back, elbows, and heels. To prevent pressure sores, you need to change positions often.
Severe pressure sores are hard to treat and slow to heal. If they don't heal, they can lead to skin, blood, or bone infections.

Expressing shock over the death of a journalist in police firing in Manipur on Sunday, Journalists Forum Assam (JFA) has urged the O Ibobi Singh government to investigate the incident.
JFA in a statement in Guwahati said the Manipur government should also provide compensation to the family of journalist Thangjam Nanao Singh.
Singh (29) was killed in police firing on bandh supporters at Thangemeiband on the second day of the indefinite strike in Manipur called by a film body demanding the arrest of a Naga militant for allegedly molesting a Manipuri film actress in public view on December 18 at Chandel.
Singh, a reporter of the private TV channel 'Prime News' was hit by a bullet on his chest. He succumbed to his injury at the hospital later.

Not a good start....
Saved by holding.
We are awful on the road. No reason to assume that will change.
Holy cow this defensive line absolutely stinks.
60 rushing yards on 2 plays?

Numb is a good way to describe it. I hate to feel this way, but for the first time in years I feel this could be an ugly game.

Do Not Buy!
By Michelle
from Undisclosed
Comments about Frigidaire Gallery 1.5 Cu. Ft. Over-The-Range Microwave - Black on Black:
My husband and I bought this just over two years ago. We went to open it and the handle broke off recently. Of course since we're out of warranty we'll probably have to buy a part that shouldn't even have broken in the first place. Stay away!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Was this review helpful? Yes / No

The time is difficult to read....too small. The numbers are not very eary to use...ie: you need to puch them pretty hard to activate. Confusion as to how to use convection.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Not That Great
By Spunky
The Convection use is worthless, takes longer to cook than your average oven, even the microwave doesn't heat up as much as my old one....So Id give it a 4 Star rating out of 10

Author(s): Jung, C. G.; Stein, Murray
ISBN 10: 0691006970. See all ISBN's
Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
C. G. Jung, son of a Swiss Reformed pastor, used his Christian background throughout his career to illuminate the psychological roots of all religions. Jung believed religion was a profound, psychological response to the unknown--both the inner self and the outer worlds--and he understood Christianity to be a profound meditation on the meaning of the life of Jesus of Nazareth within the context of Hebrew spirituality and the Biblical worldview.
Murray Stein's introduction relates Jung's personal relationship with Christianity to his psychological views on religion in general, his hermeneutic of religious thought, and his therapeutic attitude toward Christianity. This volume includes extensive selections from Psychological Approach to the Dogma of the Trinity," "Christ as a Symbol of the Self," from Aion, "Answer to Job," letters to Father Vincent White from Letters, and many more.

Other signs may pay dearly for the excesses foisted upon them when sociable Venus tests the generosity of your Jupiter ruler, but only the Centaur is in a position to be bled dry. Jupiter transiting your Capricorn money house this year should have made you more fiscally conservative, more responsible for your precious possessions. However, a momentary lapse, a desire to please a somewhat significant other (not another mortgage broker) could wind up costing much more than you figured. Until the Fourth is history, go slow.
If the weekend doesnt get off to a smooth start, chances are youre feeling the effects of Uranus turning retrograde in your house of commuting and communicating. Bear with the interruptions, ride out the rough spots and before Sunday night, the nothing significant balsamic lunar phase will be upon us. Then bide your time until the Cancer new moon Wednesday evening introduces something new to focus your attention on or, more to the point, worry about. Since the lunation is in the sign of the Crab, itll probably be your partner.
Feel like giving more than youre getting? If the urge to serve becomes overwhelming, an Aquarian humanitarian can simply gather a bag of stuff destined for the yard sale and donate it to charity. With your Uranus ruler turning retrograde in your Pisces house of values and valuables, you might not collect as much cash as you anticipated anyway. Before the week is over, the Cancer new moon could bring a new player for your team or, especially if you were born in January, introduce a new dietary plan. Nurturing Crab and food go hand in hand.
Unpredictable Uranus in your sign does an about face on the 26th, however this turnaround can reverberate throughout the weekend. You might experience a genuine role reversal during the transition or just be thrown for a loop, unprepared for what comes next. Thankfully, the compassionate Cancer new moon on Wednesday inaugurates a new lunar cycle; that it occurs in your house of true love, entertainment and recreation is something to look forward to. Especially if you want to get pregnant.

Fantastic Value in this Updated Beachfront Resort
Sea Breeze Condominiums is located centrally on beautiful Madeira Beach with everything you need for a perfect Florida vacation. Soft sugary sand, warm tropical breezes, and the warm and clean Gulf of Mexico at your doorstep. Sea Breeze is within easy walking distance of great restaurants, bars and all the activity of John's Pass Village.
This first floor condo gives you a direct view of the heated swimming pool, jacuzzi, and pool deck from the newly decorated living room. With a large beachfront private balcony, fully equipped kitchen, sleeping accommodations for six, multiple TV's, games, books, and entertainment you'll feel right at home.
The master bedroom features a comfortable king size bed with private bath and direct access to the balcony. The second bedroom includes two twin size beds, and is just off the second bathroom. There's a new queen sofa-bed in the living room, large comfortable couches, dining area for all, and complete entertainment center. The balcony has seating for four, and gives an unobstructed view of the Gulf and the world-class Sunsets.
Includes free high-speed internet WiFi, cable TV, DVD player and stereo. Gas grills and picnic areas on the sand in front of the condo. The building is secure with a security-access entry and elevator. Washer and dryer on-site.
I will start out by saying this condo has great beachfront access and a spectacular view of the ocean. It is within walking distance to John's Pass Village for restaurants and shopping. Those were the highlights. The condo is sub-par clean and EXTREMELY noisy due to the parking garage directly below the unit and the hot tub and pool directly outside the bedroom/living room windows. Pool/hot tub rules state it closes at dusk - this is NOT enforced. There were people in the hot tub until as late as 3 a.m. partying and making noise every night. Also, the metal gates to the pool and beach entrances (which by the way have broken locks) are right outside the condo windows and constantly slam shut every time someone goes through them. We contacted I-trip via email about the noise and were told by their representative, Charles, that there was no management on the premises to enforce pool hours and we would have to call the local police if we had noise issues. I replied to him that this was not an acceptable solution, and never heard back from him or I-trip again. I rent at least 1 to 2 condos a year and have never had issues like this -especially the lack of response, help, or empathy from the rental agency, I-trip. Needless to say, we got no sleep on our "vacation" and we ended up checking out of the condo 2 days early to find other accommodations where we could sleep at night. I sent Charles an email to let him know of our early departure and the reason for it and, again, never heard a word from him. Would not recommend this condo to ANY ONE, nor would I recommend or use I-trip rental agency again to rent a vacation condo.
Condo is just like the pictures and as described. Had problem with kitchen lights, notified service and the problem was corrected within two hours. Drapes across patio had dried blood on center panel which meant they had to be touched to get in and out. The service man did move them to the far right so we did not have to touch them. Since we did notify them of this problem, would expect them to be replaced before next renter. We noticed in the guest book they had negative reviews due to the blood stained drapes dating back to August. Also the family with 3 small children up above us was very noisy and really kept us from enjoying our week. Kids constantly running from one end to the other and dragging kitchen chairs across the room was very annoying. Condo was very nice but probably will not stay again.
We stayed at Sea Breeze for 3 nights on October 15. The unit was overall, very nice. It had a king size bed and separate bathroom for the master bedroom and a set of twin beds in the second bedroom with another bathroom close by. There were flat screen TVs in each bedroom and the living room. The living room had a nice couch and love seat. The curtains needed mended and washed. One corner holding strap was torn and they had some stains, no biggy. The kitchen looked like it had recently been updated. The owner should spring for some new cookware, but it was all usable. I could easily give this 5 stars if the owner could spend a few minutes with a screwdriver tightening up handles and some paint touching up a few areas, but this was really nice. Sea Breeze is right on the beach and also has a pool and hot tub. Sea Breeze is ~1/2 mile from John's Pass Village, as easy walk. There are bunches of shops and restaurants. Our favorite was the Friendly Fisherman. This time of year isn't very crowded, so we had the beach mostly to ourselves. I would definitely go back and recommend this to others.
The condo was spacious and clean, we had a beautiful view of the beach and pool area. Loved every minute of our staythere.
Suite 107 Sea Breeze condos was awesome, we arrived here on Thursday and everything was a breeze to check in , the unit was clean,with everything that we needed. The unit is right next to the beach and the gulf, the only thing separating us was the pool. The kids enjoyed it , the adults enjoyed it, we really didn't need to go anywhere. Johns pass village with shops is only a 10 minute walk.or 2 minute drive, 7 -11 right across street. The building is secure with pass codes for elevator and door. The pool was cleaned each morning, the beach is beautiful, the weather beautiful. The only minor complaint if I had one was the stairwell could use some attention. But we would definitely stay again, soon I hope.
Best friend - annual trip! We had plenty of space and comfort in our Sea Breeze rental. The view from the balcony just couldn't get any better. We were close to the steps, close to the elevator, and even better, close to the pool, and the beach. We picked up some groceries at publix (close by as well) and everything worked well in the kitchen. Ceiling fans helped on those hot days along with the A/C. Very enjoyable time. We received a "mid-stay" message checking to see if all was going well. We didn't need to have to contact them because nothing went wrong.
My only issue was thin walls but for the most part, everyone that stayed within this location was very respectful of their neighbors.
If you want beach chairs or floaters, bring your own.
Pre trip communication was timely and always helpful. Great folks to work with. You will not be disappointed.

A Failure of Oil Diplomacy
By Watkins, Eric
US Sen. John McCain, the Republican Party's presidential hopeful, has underscored concerns in the country about the viability of the Caucasus as a secure transit corridor for oil and gas. Last week McCain noted that Russia has become more aggressive toward the now- democratic nations that broke free of the old Soviet empire- aggression that became most evident with Moscow's recent attack on Georgia.
Georgia now stands at a strategic crossroads, McCain said, which are traversed in particular by the key Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline. "If that pipeline were destroyed or controlled by Russia," he said, "European energy supplies would be even more vulnerable to Russian influence."
McCain is doubtlessly correct in his estimation of the situation but is hardly the first to note the importance of the Caucasus as an energy bridge or the potential for Russian mischief there.
Deja vu
In February, as OGJ reported at the time, it seemed that Washington had finally awakened to the need for a special kind of diplomacy in the region-a kind of diplomacy that would be devoted to oil.
Remember? US Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice announced plans to appoint a special envoy for energy issues to deal with the use of oil and gas for political means.
"It is a really important part of diplomacy, in fact, I think I would go so far as to say that some of the politics of energy is warping diplomacy in certain parts of the world," Rice told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Feb. 12.
"I do intend to appoint, and we are looking for, a special energy coordinator who could especially spend time on the Central Asian and Caspian region," she said.
Rice was making her pitch on Capitol Hill in response to questions from Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.), who asked about progress made on establishing such a post as called for in legislation approved in 2007.
Oil as a weapon
Lugar was especially vexed about Russia's use of oil and gas as a political weapon, saying among other things that, "Moscow continues to use energy to extort its neighbors."
Lugar went on to explain: "Russian foreign policy is now largely based on maximizing the political leverage and financial earnings of its energy supplies and dominating the transport of energy in Eurasia.
"Appointment of a special representative for energy would be a clear statement of high-level US priority for this strategically critical region," he said.
"Failure to demonstrate US commitment will jeopardize progress on trans-Caspian energy cooperation, with potentially devastating impacts on long-term US security and economic interests in the region," Lugar said. Could any man or woman sound more like a prophet than Sen. Lugar? It seems he had a vision of the future in describing the need for the US to undertake serious oil diplomacy in the region.
Very clearly, it is a vision that Washington has yet to embrace.

Re: Engine oil stains on deck gelgoat
You must be my neighbor! The plug fell out and my neighbor informed me of the nest.
I have 6 nests under my dock finger alone. It's a hard dock on the land side so there is about 50 nests. If you have ever dealt with barn swallows before you can know how frustrating they can be.
Don't get me wrong; i love them. They are a gorgeous bird. It's just extremely frustrating cleaning mountains of poop off the boat every week (3 hrs). My boats my baby (100k baby, retirement home) and i agonize every week using soft-scrub on her. Most of my neighbors are large powerboats so they don't get it quite as bad. Still bad though.
Hopefully i have convinced the marina to put up netting before there return in the spring.
The other sailors come over to look and laugh at my dilemma. Plus side.... she is really clean every week for about a day or so. No mold, spider poop, nothing

I would have said ice cream vans chimes in the street was a sign of winter. Most vans seem to spend their time at events, these days, and with no events on offer the operators try and make a bit of money from non-events.
I'm not sure how successful they are because I don't think I've heard chimes two days running for a long time.

FE *"The chimes of an ice cream van in the street." I haven't heard those for years,*
Can't say I remember them very often when I lived in London, but here in Norwich I live near a large school and they take the opportunity to get a bit of trade at school chucking out time in the afternoon, although they aren't allowed within a certain distance of the school gates. Also apparently they are only allowed to play their chimes for 4 seconds.

Indigenous church mission theory
Indigenous churches are churches suited to local culture and led by local Christians. There have been two main Protestant strategies proposed for the creation of indigenous churches:
1. Indigenisation. Foreign missionaries create well-organised churches and then hand them over to local converts. The foreign mission is generally seen as a scaffolding which must be removed once the fellowship of believers is functioning properly. Missionaries provide teaching, pastoral care, sacraments, buildings, finance and authority, and train local converts to take over these responsibilities. Thus the church becomes indigenous. It becomes self-supporting, self-propagating and self-governing.
2. Indigeneity. Foreign missionaries do not create churches, but simply help local converts develop their own spiritual gifts and leadership abilities and gradually develop their own churches. Missionaries provide teaching and pastoral care alone. The church is thus indigenous from the start. It has always been self-supporting, self-propagating and self-governing.
- Henry Venn (Anglican, Church Missionary Society) (1796-1873) and Rufus Anderson (Congregationalist, American Board) (1796-1880) simultaneously developed a strategy of Indigenisation in response to the extreme paternalism exercised by western missionaries of the early 19th century, particularly in Asia. They perceived that 'rice' Christians were completely dependent on missionaries and loyal to the church only as long as they were receiving free food. In exchange, missionaries expected complete loyalty from the 'natives' and resisted giving up authority and control. The system was thought to foster an unhealthy parent-child relationship between the missionaries and national believers.
- Anthony Norris Groves (1795-1853) attempted to avoid this problem in pioneer areas by guarding against any form of dependency from the start. He chose to represent no foreign denomination or missionary society, and he encouraged full co-operation between all Protestant missionaries for the encouragement of indigenous initiatives. He predated Roland Allen by eighty years as an advocate of Indigeneity rather than Indigenisation. Looking directly to God for guidance and provision, he was a formative influence on Hudson Taylor and the "faith mission" movement, but the direct influence of his indigenous strategy is more evident in the remarkable movements associated with Bakht Singh in India and Watchman Nee in China.[1]
- John Livingstone Nevius (1829-1893) served as a Presbyterian missionary to China in the late 1800s. After questioning the methods of western missionaries of his time, he wrote a book published in 1886, "The Planting and Development of Missionary Churches," which called for discarding old-style missions and the adoption of his new plan to foster an independent, self-supporting local church. He criticized the missionaries' practice of paying national workers out of mission funds, believing the healthy local church should be able to support its own local workers.
- Hudson Taylor (1832-1905) was a Protestant missionary from England to China and founder of the China Inland Mission. He became disillusioned with other Protestant missionaries in China that lived in compounds and employed indigenous people as servants. Taylor subsequently learned local dialects, adopted local dress, and went up and down rivers in China preaching. He sought to distance himself from any paternal organizations or denominations in favor of "faith missions" which relied on the support of nationals and individuals. He also sought to train indigenous leaders to lead churches and mission stations in China, rather than have them run by foreigners.
- Dixon Edward Hoste (1861-1946) Was successor to Hudson Taylor as director of the China Inland Mission. Hoste is credited with making the Chinese churches apply the indigenous principles of self-government, self-support, and self-propagation. This threefold motto was later adopted by the Three-Self Patriotic Movement after missionaries were expelled from China.
- Roland Allen (1868-1947) also attempted to apply indigenous church principles to the missions of his day. After serving as an Anglican missionary in China from 1895 to 1903, he returned to England and spent 40 years writing about missions principles. Two of his books, Missionary Methods: St. Paul's or Ours? (1912) and The Spontaneous Expansion of the Church: And Causes that Hinder It, are still in print.
- Alice Luce (1873-1955), first an Anglican missionary in India, and subsequently an Assemblies of God missionary among Hispanics along the U.S.-Mexico border, was influenced by Allen's theory of missions and in 1921 she wrote a series of articles, "Paul's Missionary Methods," for the Pentecostal Evangel. Due to her advocacy, indigenous church principles became normative for Assemblies of God missions during the early part of the 20th century.
- Nicolas Zamora (1875-1914) – Bishop Nicholas Zamora founded on 28 February 1909 the first Indigenous Evangelical Church in the Philippines. Behind the founding of the IEMELIF, nationalist and subsequent independence movements. Filipinos wanted full autonomy, including in the realm of religion, as the 333 years of Spanish rule were marked by the Catholic Church's control over both temporal and spiritual affairs. His vision and motivation was faith in God's providence, and belief that the Filipino was capable of erecting an self-sustaining, autonomous, and self-propagating evangelical church. In 1903, he was assigned to be a pastor at Knox Memorial Church becoming the first Filipino Protestant pastor. Zamora took up law at the University of Sto. Tomas where he honed his skills in debate and oration, then entered a seminary in Shanghai.
- John Wesley Haley (1878-1951), Free Methodist Church in Canada missionary to South Africa 1902-1909, 1917-1934, and Ruanda-Urundi 1934-1946. Haley left South Africa after several decades of ministry disillusioned with traditional mission practice and initiated new ministry in Burundi following the indigenous mission approach, involving Burundian converts in the leadership, decision-making process "from the beginning." He felt a special kinship with the work of Nevius and Allen, despite limited understanding from his mission board.
- Melvin Hodges (1909-1988), an Assemblies of God missionary to Nicaragua, again popularized the idea in the 1950s with his book, On the Mission Field: The Indigenous Church. He defined the indigenous church as "a native church . . . which shares the life of the country in which it is planted and finds itself ready to govern itself, support itself, and reproduce itself." Hodges believed that foreign money creates dependence and establishes paternalistic patterns within mission movements, leading to an unhealthy, anemic church. His experience as a missionary no doubt influenced his presentation of the Three-Self principles. He emphasized the need for flexibility and tailoring the principles to fit the need of the local believers.
- David Bosch (1929-1992), a Dutch Reformed missiologist, suggested in his book Transforming Mission: Paradigm Shifts in Theology of Mission that a fourth "self" needed to be added to the Venn-Anderson framework: "self-theologizing." Though much self-theologizing had already taken place in mission churches, much of it has been left unnoticed or considered syncretistic. Bosch suggested that in order to not fall into the two extremes of syncretism or "Babylonian captivity," self-theologizing must be in dialogue with the universal 'invisible' church. Only then would a truly indigenous church exist.[2]

China to survey islands disputed with Japan: Xinhua
Published on Jan 15, 2013 3:21 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - China is to carry out a geographical survey of islands in the East China Sea at the centre of a bitter dispute with Japan, the official Xinhua news agency said on Tuesday.
The survey of the Diaoyu islands was part of a programme to map China's "territorial islands and reefs", Xinhua said, citing a state geographical agency. They are known as the Senkaku in Japan, which controls them.
The survey was part of China's efforts to "safeguard its maritime rights and interests", Xinhua said, without giving a date for the exercise or making clear whether it would involve activities on land or be confined to the sea.
It quoted Mr Zhang Huifeng, an official with China's National Administration of Surveying, Mapping and Geoinformation, acknowledging that the mapping could encounter problems.

ø Ignore Limper
Stupid characters.....
I was just wondering, who plays PCs with less than a 12 Int? Why and or How do you play someone like this? As hobbies go arn't we the least likely demographic to be able to actually play this.
Out of 14 characters, the lowest Int score I've played was 13. Only one wasn't human. All of them have multi-classed at some point. I tend to have 15 Int fighter types (lvl 4 +1 Int).
I only ask this after noticing the threads on Dumb Paladins and clerics and sorcerers not having many skill points. What do you people do with out skill ranks?
Just a bit of ideal curiosity.In dark places it was grown.......Limper Land

Laboratory technician Ruth Rutledge packages cerebrospinal fluid of the three confirmed meningitis cases in Minn., to send to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta for further testing, at the Minnesota Department of Health in St. Paul, Minn., on Tuesday, Oct. 9, 2012. (AP Photo/Hannah Foslien)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- The FDA pulled its list of health care facilities that received suspect material from the New England Compound Center (NECC) after it discovered "technical problems." The federal agency said it plans on re-issuing the list after verifying its accuracy.
Earlier Tuesday, the Tennessee Dept. of Health issued its list of 74 health care facilities it said were connected to the lab believed to be the source of the meningitis outbreak that has killed 23 people across 19 states.
The revised list will be returned to this story as soon as it is released.

Basic 7(a) Loan for a Video Game Store Franchise Purchase
by JIM1967, Window Shopper
- Created: March 15, 2010, 1:20 pm
- Updated: June 20, 2014, 3:57 pm
Hello All Who Can Help:
I currently own and operate a small local Residential and Commercial Inspection Company so I know a lot about operating a business. With that said, I'm currently interested in starting a Video Game store. The store is a Franchise that would require $100,000 to buy into and get underway. I have read all of the info about a Basic 7(a) loan and it sounds like a possible positive thing for me. Before I get all of the paper work rolling and all of the necessary documents ready do you think this program is right for me and do you think this program would consider such a loan? I plan on hiring approx. 3-4 employees.
Thanks in advance!

Jim, Right off the bat this sounds like a great option for you. The one who can really give you the most definitive answer is a local banker. The bank is really the lending institution; the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan that you make. There are two approaches. One is to talk with 2-4 banker now, before you have actually begun. Find out who is lending money, and on what criteria. Establish a rapport with a banker you think you can work with. This is a great approach because -- if you find such a banker -- s/he can offer a wide range of tools and background information for you. S/he can point you in the direction of local population stats, and might even know good landlords, and if you are very lucky will even have stats on the video game and/or franchise options. The other approach is to go as far as you can without actually paying the franchise company anything. Do your background work. Research stats and locations. Build your business plan as completely as possible. You should be able to get enough info from the franchise company to get your financials reasonably straight. Then go see your local banker(s), business plan in hand. This does make a strong impression, showing how prepared you are, and how much background work you have already done. So take your pick. Both approaches work well. I do advise, however, that you not limit yourself to one bank or one banker. Go to see several. Not all banks have money for all projects. Find the one that is most receptive to your idea. Good luck on your new venture! MaryAnnBusiness Plan MasterStart and Finance Your Business Now ---This post was edited to remove a commercial link.

Re: Charging batteries with engine while sailing
The Yanmar bulliten says that in
neutral with the engine not running
. The engine would be running to charge the batteries therefore, it should be in forwad.
Advisory Number: MSA08-003:
DATE February 8, 2008 Dealers and OEMs
TO: All Marine Distributors
SUBJECT: Gear in Neutral While Sailing All MODELS:
All Sailboat Engines
We continue to get questions regarding the correct gear position while sailing with the engine OFF. This advisory is issued as a reminder; Yanmar requires that if sailing with the engine OFF
(not running)
the transmission shifter must be in the neutral position or internal damage to the gear or sail-drive will result. This damage will not be covered by Yanmar's Limited Warranty. Please instruct customers and dealers who deliver the sailboat to the customer, of the correct (Neutral) position for the marine gear while sailing.
If the customer desires that the propeller shaft not spin while sailing, either a folding propeller, shaft break, or other suitable device may be used. However, Yanmar accepts no responsibility for the selection, installation, or operation of such devices. Please also refer to Marine service advisory "MSA07-001_Yanmar Sail Drive Propeller Selection" for additional information.
If you have any questions regarding this advisory please contact a Customer Support representative.

Michael Jackson told a Beverly Hills auction house to beat it, and has canceled an auction of Jackobilia.
Julien's Auctions will return the gloves, statues, crowns and cars to Michael Jackson on April 25 rather than sell them to an eager public.
"Both parties, Julien's Auctions and Michael Jackson, agree to halt the auction," Martin J. Nolan, executive director of Julien's Auctions, told ABC News. "All items will remain intact as one collection and will be returned to Michael Jackson."
"Both sides agree to make a generous donation to Music Cares, the charity founded by the Recording Academy," added Nolan.
Prior to the Tuesday evening legal agreement, the auction was scheduled to run April 21 until April 25 and expected to generate upwards of $30 million from the 1,390 items on sale. To placate Jackson's many fans, the collection will still be open to public viewing until April 25 for a charge of $20 per head.
"This is the latest episode in the endlessly fascinating, sometimes grossly bizarre career of Michael Jackson," said Michael Levine, who was in charge of public relations for Jackson, 50, during his 1993 child molestation trial.
It's also typical behavior for Jackson, who is notoriously fickle and prone to changing his mind. In recent years, the "king of pop" has bailed out on a comeback tour with his brothers who made up The Jackson Five and an album for which Sheikh Abdulla of Bahrain paid $7 million but never received. Abdulla sued and the pair settled out of court.
Jackson originally hired Julien's Auctions to sell over 2,000 items from his Neverland Ranch after he was forced to sell it or face foreclosure. Then, in March, he slapped Julien's with a lawsuit to halt the sale, saying he had never authorized it. A hearing on a preliminary injunction had been scheduled today before Tuesday's night announcement saying the auction would be cancelled.
Opening day at the auction site was certainly a feast for the senses. Two dozen gold buggies, limos and miniature race cars lined the walk to the garden where more than 50 statues, many of children playing, lined a garden area. Walking up the stairs to the main show room, visitors were greeted by a red carpet, moody lighting and Jackson's beats blaring out of the loud speakers.
"When working with him there was a real sense he [Jackson] was extremely materially engaged," Levine said. "However, the '90s were very materialistic and differed from the post-financial crisis world of today so conclusions can't be drawn just from this."
Many of the items were expected to smash through their estimated guide prices. Nolan predicted the gates to the Neverland Ranch would sell for upwards of $100,000, not the $30,000 listed, while he also thought that the iconic white Swarovski-encrusted glove would fetch 15 times its guide listing of $10,000. A 12-foot statue of a bound Indian designed by Texan Glenna Goodacre was expected to fetch up to $200,000.

Who Supports Solar? Latest Survey Defies Political Stereotypes
As the U.S. presidential election approaches, U.S. voters are being bombarded with anti-solar ads, courtesy of super-PACs backed by fossil-fuel industries.

"I am in LOVE with our invitations! We ordered "Flourishing Joy" in paradise with rose gold foil stamp, they are so pretty! The quality is perfect, we had a couple minor adjustments and the proof team understood exactly wat we needed. I can hardly wait to send them out!"
"bought the tropical romance invitations for for our destination wedding, great quality and fast shipping... the only complaint is the print other than the big bold names is really small..."
"This card came out exactly like we hoped it would. The paper and color option we chose is beautiful. We made changes to the proof and they fixed it immediately and sent a revised proof. We are completely satisfied with our order!"
"Loved these invitations. The quality of the paper was great. They turned out just as I had hoped for my daughter's wedding invitations."
"This card is very much the same in real life as in the picture. My one is purple/lilac, just so charming and cute. The details on the card with the gold trim make it so special and I really liked the matching pearl envelopes. The envelopes were great value. I also got the RSVP cards and they really complete the set. I asked the designer to make the writing a little bigger and to write Guest names with two lines under it on the BACK of the card. I bought a gold pen to jot in the names."

A substantial slice of final earnings for Dental Sales Representatives (just under one in three) arrives through commissions. Median overall income in this area is approximately $50K. Men are slightly outnumbered by their female counterparts who answered the questionnaire, who make up a slight majority at 53 percent. Most people in this profession are content with their work, and moderate levels of job satisfaction are reported. A strong majority report receiving medical coverage from their employers and more than half collect dental insurance. The information for this rundown comes from respondents who completed PayScale's salary questionnaire.
Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience and pay tend to be weakly linked for Dental Sales Representatives — those with more experience do not necessarily bring in higher earnings. Workers in their first five years can expect to earn $47K, but people who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably bigger sum of $55K. Dental Sales Representatives who work for 10 to 20 years in their occupation tend to earn about $62K. Veterans who have surpassed the 20-year mark may make only slightly more than those who are navigating the mid-career stage; the more senior group reports median earnings of around $65K.
