September 29th, 2009 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
This past weekend, a team of 20 youth participated in FOCUS North America's YES Program (formerly known as OYO), serving our most needy neighbors in Kansas City.
They arrived from parishes in Wichita, KS, Oklahoma City, OK, and Kansas City, eager to be used by God to meet the fundamental needs of His people. They did not expect, however, that they would receive much more from the experience than they would give. After three intense days, the youth gained a new perspective on the poor and homeless: they came expecting to serve them, but, instead, found their own lives forever changed by the encounter.
"They are just like us," one participant said. Another said, "I don't know how anyone can come on a FOCUS North America YES trip and not be changed."
Living out Matthew 25, the youth engaged in several social action projects throughout the weekend. They served and ate dinner with many homeless and working poor in the city, listening to their stories and enjoying fellowship with them. They distributed clothing to mothers who had no means to clothe their children. They walked around the famous outdoor Country Club Plaza in Kansas City with newly opened eyes, looking beyond the glamour to perceive and meet the needs of the homeless on the streets. But, as the youth realized, they themselves were fed and clothed by the face-to-face encounter with real living icons of Christ, with the poor of the city. As one participant said, "They really open themselves to you; they'll sit and talk to you forever, when most people in school will never give their time to you like that."

Click here for a collection of images from the retreat.
With the Pennsylvania forests' magnificent change of colors well under way, proclaiming the glory of creation, the clergy of the Diocese of New York and Washington DC, and the Diocese of Charleston, Oakland and the Mid Atlantic gathered at the Village in late September with Bishop THOMAS for their fifth annual clergy retreat. In attendance with Sayedna were twenty-seven priests and deacons of the Brotherhood, and Mother Alexandra, abbess of St. Thekla Convent and her guest Mother Mariamne.
The retreat was led by one of the Brotherhood's own – Archimandrite John Abdalah, pastor of St. George Cathedral, Pittsburgh. Bishop Thomas asked Fr. John to discuss the theme "Being a Priest with a Positive Attitude." During the retreat sessions, Fr. John challenged the Brotherhood to consider three questions about their ministries. The first was what metaphor best reflects their ministry. The second was to ask what person had a significant influence on their ministry. And last was what do we want to be remembered for. As we discovered through the individual and collective answers to these questions, the images of how we see our ministries - now and in the future - profoundly affect the attitudes we portray to others through our day-to-day work in our parishes.

The entire discussion was focused on the documents related to the "Organization of Episcopal Assemblies" in the regions of the world that are outside the borders of the Autocephalous Churches. These Episcopal Assemblies have been authorized by the Fourth Pre-Conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference which met at the Orthodox Center of Ecumenical Patriarchate in Chambésy, Switzerland from 6 – 13, June 2009. It was decided unanimously by the Hierarchs that the first such Episcopal Assembly shall be convened during Post-Pentecost Week of 2010, which will fall in the last week of May. The likely days of the Assembly will be May 26-27, 2010. There was also discussion as to the location of the Assembly, with a specific venue to be decided after investigation of locales and resources.

Listen to an interview with OCL director George Matsoukas on Ancient Faith Radio.
Amidst an unprecedented focus of attention and activity on Orthodox Unity, Orthodox Christian Laity invites all Orthodox and interested observers to attend its 22nd Annual conference to be held at the Antiochian Village in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, October 29-31, 2009.
"At no time in recent history has there been such attention focused on the quest for Orthodox unity both in America and world-wide," declared Peter Petkas, OCL president.
"These developments provide OCL, a long-time advocate of Orthodox unity, and all concerned Orthodox with a historical opportunity to help chart the way toward this vital goal. Our annual meeting is a timely vehicle for both dialogue and action leading to Orthodox unity."
Petkas explained that the program includes seven panels comprised of devout and informed Orthodox who will discuss a range of topics connected to the realization of Orthodox unity in America. He said these discussions will include (a) the process for achieving Orthodox unity in North America and other non-traditional Orthodox areas that was adopted at the recent Pan-Orthodox meeting held in Chambesy, Switzerland and (b) the impact that the exclusion of representation by the Church in North America in that meeting, and in future pre-conciliar meetings, will have on the relevance of those decisions to the Orthodox faithful in North America. His Beatitude Metropolitan Jonah, newly installed primate of the Orthodox Church in America, will deliver the keynote address. His Eminence Archbishop Nathaniel and His Grace Bishop Thomas will also participate in the meeting.
This summer, the Orthodox Center for the Advancement of Biblical Studies has launched The Chrysostom Bible, a new biblical commentary series for preaching and teaching. "The Chrysostom Bible," writes series editor, Fr. Paul Tarazi, "is not so much in honor of John Chrysostom as it is to continue and promote his legacy as an interpreter of the biblical texts for preaching and teaching God's congregation."
The Order of St. Ignatius of Antioch will meet in Houston, TX on Friday, October 16 in conjunction with the Archdiocese Board of Trustees meetings. Our host parish, St. George Church, Houston, has made hotel arrangements with Hilton Post Oak Houston, 2001 Post Oak Boulevard, Houston, TX 77056. Please make your room reservations directly with the hotel. The phone number is 713-961-9300.
by Fr. William Olnhausen, pastor of St. Nicholas Church in Cedarburg, WI – the article was published in the Church's Sept. 2009 newsletter:
It was 114 in Palm Desert California the day I arrived & well over 100 every day. Lord have mercy. But our delegate Mike Hubergot off the plane, breathed it in & said "I love it!"
Cheryl Haska also represented St. Nicholas. Our teens Nicole Haska, Abe Newhouse, Lydia Newhouse & Ana Treptow & coach Mary Beth Newhouse, our Midwest Bible winners, represented our Diocese at the national Bible Bowl - which didn't go as well as at the Midwest, but they are still one of the top teams in the Archdiocese. Be very proud of them! It was fun to have so many St. Nicholas people there.
Our Antiochian Archdiocese is doing well financially & spiritually: united, growing, enthusiastic, dynamic. Since 1988 this little Archdiocese has established over 125 new missions, most of which are now self-supporting churches. His Eminence Metropolitan PHILIP at age 78 is in fine form & delivered a brilliant keynote address. The worship services, more than 2 hours daily, were well attended and beautifully celebrated. (I am now accustomed to services with 3 metropolitans, 7 bishops, a congregation of 1,000 & a choir of 50!) The many departments of the Archdiocese are doing really good things. Our clergy are high quality.
An email that was sent to the Archdiocese office in late August from Fr. Gregory Matthewes-Green and Khourieh Frederica regarding their son Stephen:
We wanted to communicate to His Eminence and everyone there that the negative comments and speculations appearing on the internet do not represent our thoughts and feelings. Personal attacks on His Eminence are especially dismaying to us. While the instruction to our son to move to Holy Cross initially came as a shock, we fully accept it and believe that God will work through it for the best. In fact, we are already seeing many good things come out of it.
Please convey to everyone there our greetings in Christ, as we ask for your continued prayers. The midwife says the baby should be born in the next couple of days.
In Christ,
Fr. Gregory and Kh. Frederica Mathewes-Green

16 Teens and Youth Leaders Served the Poor of Philadelphia and Initiated FOCUS North America's Newest Program
September 4, 2009– Kansas City, MO This past weekend, August 28-30, 2009, the Orthodox Youth Outreach Program (OYO), now called the YES Program of FOCUS North America (Youth Equipped to Serve), took its first trip as a ministry of FOCUS North America. A group of 16 eager teens and leaders said yes to the "cry of the poor" (Proverbs 21:13) and gave their time in service to the people of Philadelphia, PA.
The weekend began with orientation, led by Katrina Bitar, YES Program Director. The rest of Friday evening was spent in prayer, the team's first ministry to Philadelphia. The group traveled around the city and prayed for it and its people. This prayer tour kicks off all YES trips, orienting the team to the past and present of the community they will serve and opening their eyes to the real struggles of its people.
[Yonkers, NY] On Saturday, October 3, 2009, St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Yonkers, NY, invites the faithful to its annual Orthodox Education Day, this year titled "God's Green Earth: Ecology and Theology." The day's program will feature outstanding speakers, exhibits, and workshops regarding the intersection of faith and practice, as related to the environment.
"This Education Day, we want to wed theological vision with practical ways to care for our world," said The Very Rev. Chad Hatfield, chancellor and CEO of the seminary. "So, the day will feature everything from ecological perspectives of ancient church writers, to how to create an 'earth-friendly' garden."
Keynote speaker Dr. Vigen Guroian, an Armenian theologian and professor or religious studies at the University of Virginia, will address the topic "Ecological Musings from the Garden," and an array of other experts will present workshops. In particular, Mr. Chris Nolan, Chief Landscape Architect of Central Park Conservatory, New York City, will discuss the eco-friendly use of land; and Dr. Emily Markides, adjunct faculty at the Peace and Reconciliation Studies Program, University of Maine, and co-pioneer of the Permaculture Garden at Agia Skepi Detoxification Center, Filani, Cyprus, will share her experience with building sustainable communities. For animal lovers, a monk from New Skete Monastery in Cambridge, NY, Father Christopher, will speak about deepening spiritual consciousness through kinship with animals. The monastery is known globally for its dog training methods and breeding of German shepherds.
Charity Road Race to Continue Local Woman's Dream
August 25, 2009 West Roxbury, MA—In the mid-1990s, 18-year old Sonia Belcher (then, Sonia Daly) was intent on creating a school where Orthodox Christian children in the Boston area would benefit from a strong academic and spiritual education founded in the teachings of the Orthodox Christian Church. In 1997, with the support of the local Orthodox Christian community, Sonia founded what is believed to be the first pan-Orthodox School in the country: the Theophany School in Needham, MA. That fall, 17 children were enrolled for the 1997-1998 school year. Today, Theophany School is thriving, with some 35 students enrolled in the School's Pre-School and Kindergarten classes. With three full-time teachers and one director on staff, students are provided with the individualized care and attention that is vital to a young child's learning. Theophany School continues to grow, thanks to the generous support of the community.
Sadly, in February, 2008 Sonia Belcher passed away suddenly on her 32nd birthday. She was survived by her husband, Deacon Nicholas Belcher and their three-month old son, Andrew. In addition to her beloved family, Sonia left behind a legacy of tenacity and determination. Her final wish was for Theophany School to function as a full elementary school. Shortly after her untimely death, the School launched its "Building on a Dream" campaign, an initiative to continue Sonia's mission, while keeping her memory alive. Thanks to the campaign, the School has received overwhelming support over the last year.

Maryland's First Western Rite Orthodox Church Emerges
Click here for more photos.
On Sunday, August 23, 2009, Bishop THOMAS (Joseph) ordained James K. Hamrick to the Holy Priesthood in the Orthodox Church, Antiochian Christian Archdiocese. The ordination ceremony was conducted during the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy at Saint Basil the Great Orthodox Church in Poquoson, Virginia (near Newport News). The host priest and pastor of the church, Father Gregory MacGregor, was one of Hamrick's three priest sponsors. Father MacGregor had introduced Hamrick to Holy Orthodoxy three years earlier during a family vacation to Williamsburg, VA. At that time Hamrick was a priest in the Charismatic Episcopal Church and had just planted a new mission in Lewistown, Maryland named Lamb of God Church—all of this after having previously served as a United Methodist pastor for six years in the Harpers Ferry, WV area.
Hamrick's other two priest sponsors for his ordination were present and included Father Patrick Cardine, pastor of St. Patrick Orthodox Church in Warrenton, VA; and Father Nicholas Alford, pastor of St. Gregory the Great Orthodox Church in Washington, DC, both of whom were also the catechists for Hamrick's congregation when they made a decision to become Orthodox last year.
From the Office of Metropolitan PHILIP:Unfortunately, there has been much speculation and incorrect information on the Internet and elsewhere regarding our recent decision to send our incoming seminarians to Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology. This decision effected two students. The third new student was already planning to attend Holy Cross. Over the years we have tried to keep a balance between the distribution of our seminarians to various Orthodox seminaries here and abroad, especially St. Vladimir's, St. Tikhon's and Holy Cross. In fact, this year, we will have 10 students at St. Vladimir's, 9 students at St. Tikhon's and 6 students at Holy Cross. It has been our primary concern over the years to insure a strong priestly formation for our future priests. While all three schools have helped us in accomplishing this task for generations of clergymen, we feel Holy Cross most closely mirrors the practices and customs of the Patriarchate of Antioch in general and the Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of North America in particular. This is true for a variety of reasons, first and foremost being the common Syro-Byzantine liturgical and musical tradition that we share. Given the changing demographics of the majority of our seminarians and the reality that many of them are not rooted in this Syro-Byzantine expression of our one Orthodox faith from birth, we feel it is vital to immerse them in this tradition in a more complete way. It is our hope to have our own seminary in the future. In fact, much of the foundational work has already been done. Nevertheless, since we do not have our own seminary at this point in time, we feel Holy Cross is best suited to accomplish the task at hand. At the same time, however, we will and have always assessed the common needs and concerns of both the seminarians and the Archdiocese and therefore leave all doors open for the future with regard to their placement.
Dear Clergy, Students and Psychotherapists,
Plans are underway for the 2010 International Orthodox Psychotherapy Conference slated for June 21 - 25, 2010 at the Cenacle Retreat House in Chicago, Illinois. The conference center has only 50 rooms available on campus. Please book your reservation sooner rather than later.
For more information, to register or to submit a presentation proposal, please visit the conference web page or contact Fr. Stephen Plumlee.
Archpriest James Kenna, 74, of St. Sophia in Dripping Springs, TX, was fatally injured in an automobile accident on Sunday, July 26th 2009. Services for Fr. James will be held at St. Sophia on Tuesday July 28 and Wednesday July 29th; see below for further details, or visit St. Sophia's web site.
Condolences may be sent to Khouriya Anne and the Kenna family c/o the Dean of Central Texas, Fr. David Barr of St. Elias Church in Austin, TX, at firstname.lastname@example.com.
From the Austin American Statesman:
The Rev. James Kenna was an energetic Dripping Springs pastor who founded several Orthodox Christian parishes in Central Texas and, even in retirement, was looking to establish more.
"He never wanted to quit," said the Rev. David Barr, the pastor of St. Elias Orthodox Church in Austin. Kenna, 74, died Sunday afternoon in a car wreck on his way home from lunch with a parishioner after attending church in Dripping Springs. Austin police officials said Kenna's PT Cruiser left Texas 45 for an unknown reason, crashed into a fence and flipped over into a retention pond.

John and Tonya MaddexThe 2009 Antiochian Convention in Palm Desert coincided with the announcement by Conciliar Media Ministries that the ministry is discontinuing AGAIN and The Handmaiden magazines in their current printed forms, as well as moving the base of operations for Conciliar to the Chicago area.
Said CEO John Maddex, "We are embracing new technology that will reduce our costs by utilizing digital and audio formats where possible. While such decisions are difficult, these adjustments represent a necessary pruning and will result in a new lean model of operations with a continued strong evangelistic emphasis."
His Grace Bishop THOMAS passes on the following message:
Beloved of the Diocese of Charleston, Oakland, and the Mid-Atlantic:May God bless you always.This summer a record number of our children are spending time at the Antiochian Village Camp.

Antiochian Village Announces a pan-Orthodox gathering of spiritual refreshment and fellowship in memory of Kh. Joanne Abdalah.Kh. Joanne Abdalah served as an inspiration in her life as the wife of a priest and as a counselor to many. She understood the joys and trials of this life, and the need for finding strength in Christ and each other.

100% Chloraban Polyester Fullly Lined./Shelf Bra
Posted by Janice on 21st Jan 2014
I was excited to find this conservatively cut swimsuit for my two daughters who are regular lap/competition swimmers (4 times a week). The leg cut was great, but the swimsuit cut so close to the shoulder and armpit that it rubbed them raw. Otherwise, the fit is great and flattering. Will go with the moderate suit next time -- just wished it had the conservative leg.

Fair Haven car dealership goes up in flamesBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | March 19,2013Lucia Suarez / STAFF PHOTO
Investigators look through a heavily damaged garage Monday at Ed Davis Autos on Washington Street in Fair Haven following a fire at the dealership late Sunday night.FAIR HAVEN Firefighters from three towns fought a fire that engulfed Ed Davis Autos late Sunday night for more than five hours. Large pieces of burned metal are the only remnants of the car dealership that once stood in its place Monday afternoon.
Fair Haven Fire Chief David Ward said the call came in around 9:20 p.m. Sunday. When they arrived at the Washington Street location, the businesss three-bay garage was engulfed, he said.
Moments after firefighters arrived on scene, the buildings roof collapsed. Ward said they were taking out hoses and nobody was inside the building at the time.
It was a stubborn fire, he said. Once it got into the roof rafters, it dried up quickly and fell. They were just two-by-fours tacked together.
Josh Davis, the business owners son, said they were called to the dealership around 10 p.m. Sunday night to find the building in flames.
Its sad, he said while looking at the buildings ruins. Everything we worked 10 years for is gone.
Ward said fighting the fire was difficult because of five cars and tires inside the building. A sixth mechanics truck parked next to the building was also destroyed.
We had five car fires within the building that we needed to fight, the chief said. There was a lot of fuel.
Ward said the service garage was destroyed and the sales side of the building sustained intense heat and water damage. He said the owners were able to save some records and keys before they were damaged.
The tin building is like an oven, Ward said.
Davis said once everything has settled down and all the paperwork is completed, his family will rebuild. His father has owned the dealership and auto service center for 10 years this month.
It was beautiful in there, Davis said.
The fire scene was cleared around 2:30 a.m. Monday.
Ward said by the afternoon Monday the cause of the fire was undetermined, but fire investigators were called in.
The firefighters from the towns of Fair Haven, Poultney and Castleton responded to the scene while the fire department from Whitehall, N.Y., was stationed at the Fair Haven fire station.

Online Seminar
A Review of Health Law
Healthcare executives must be continually cognizant of legal and regulatory repercussions in areas as diverse as billing, patient rights, mandatory reporting and patient care. This vast field of knowledge is formidable, and it's made all the more complicated by a variety of sources of law, including both federal and state compliance issues. The recent forward movement of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) further confuses many executives, as the ACA interacts with many aspects of compliance and creates new mandates and legal requirements in healthcare administration.
This newly updated online seminar provides an overview of health law, including components of the ACA. The program is designed with a global approach that facilitates learning by explaining legal issues within a broader context. Interaction through weekly postings expands the educational opportunity as various aspects of health law are discussed with other participants.

Dreaming of Summer: Introducing the New Sea Salt Candle!
This warm weather makes me so happy but I have to say, it already has me dreaming of summer. I can't wait for a little family summer getaway and am already starting to make plans for where we'll go. In honor of warmer days and exciting summer adventures, I'd like to introduce to you our newest scent, Sea Salt!
Inspired by our summer journey to Saint Cyr sur Mer, a sleepy, coastal town in the Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France. We chartered a boat and took to the turquoise waters, enveloped by the smell of salty air and inspired by the way natural salts were infused in coastal delicacies, fresh from the sea like mussels & the region's infamous bouillabaisse. Invigorating.
I love to have Sea Salt lit while I reminisce about all the fun times we had in France, taking in all the lovely scenery and scents of Saint Cyr sur Mer. What kinds of summer getaways are you dreaming about?
Stock up now and bring the ocean home to you, available at Terrain!

Just registered but got confused as it asked for Mr. Pratchett's first name and didn't accept Pterry....
I have Snuff from the library and haven't finished it, I just don't get the time to read now I'm married again and I cant renew it as other people want it. why, oh why, is he so popular?
I was surprised to find how reasonably priced it is in the iBooks store which got me wondering why they don't rent books like they do films?
Pterry has been entertaining me for many years, should I have laughed out loud when I was in the hospital while my daughter was dying? I don't think anything but Pterry could have made me do so, without him I think I would have lost it.
I have only met him once at a book signing - what a pleasure.
If he is losing his marbles it is hard for most of us to notice as he had so many more than most of us to start with. It must be awful for him and his family -I wish him all the best and would just like to say Thank You for all he has done and I hope he can continue to bring us joy for a long time to come, but if he can't, I hope he can enjoy life to the fullest.

Phoenix Suns
Gentry: Suns lineup could change frequently
With nine new players on the roster this season, the Phoenix Suns have had a hard time coming up with a consistent starting lineup.
And for that reason, head coach Alvin Gentry is making another shift to the Suns' starting five.
Veteran power forward Luis Scola will move back into the starting lineup, replacing second-year man Markieff Morris.
But Gentry, a guest of Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 620 Wednesday, says the starting five could change frequently in the near future.
"We've just got to look at it and go 'hey, this might be a better lineup for this game' and that's what we've got to go with," he said. "We still want to try and continue to tweak the thing and get to the point where we've got consistency where we really feel good about what we're going to get night in, night out."
Scola started the first 11 games this season, but has come of the bench in each of the last 11. The Suns' record with Scola in the starting lineup is 4-7; they're 3-8 with him coming off the bench and have lost seven straight heading into Thursday night's tilt against the Memphis Grizzlies at US Airways Center.
Gentry also said that point guard Goran Dragic should be back in the lineup against Memphis. The Slovenian southpaw missed the Suns' last game -- a 98-90 loss to Orlando Sunday night -- with flu-like symptoms.
"He feels a lot better than he did the other day, which is really important, so we'll just stick him out there and hopefully he can go," Gentry said. "He was just very sick the other night and wasn't going to be able to play and have any kind of effect on the game.
"He went home, he's had two days and I think he's feeling much better."

Nicole Allen, charged with neglecting and ultimately killing a 2-year-old boy in her care, faces a maximum 65-year sentence after entering a plea Friday to third-degree murder.
Allen joins her fiancé Grant Sherwin in taking criminal responsibility for the death of Logan Sherwin, who died Sept. 29, 2011, "of brain injuries associated with a four-inch fracture to the rear of his skull," the State Attorney's Office said in a news release.
Prosecuting attorney Bobby Elmore said Monday he will likely request that Circuit Judge Michael Flowers impose the strictest penalty allowed under state statute when Allen comes before him for sentencing July 8 in Crestview.
Grant Sherwin, who was scheduled to testify against Allen at a trial set to have begun Monday, pleaded no contest in February to one count of child abuse and 10 counts of child neglect.
Elmore said he will seek a 20-year sentence for Sherwin, the maximum for the charges he pleaded to, when he is sentenced May 29.
The State Attorney's Office agreed late Friday afternoon to allow Allen to plead no contest to one count of principal to third-degree murder — issued in cases where death was unintentional — and 10 counts of child neglect.
Neither Sherwin nor Allen has ever said the other was responsible for a blow to the head that killed young Logan, Elmore said. Both have insisted the child fell face first off a toilet, though the fatal injury was to the back of the skull.
"I don't have any reason to believe either one of them," Elmore said. "You can tell by the way we handled the case who we believe is responsible. The evidence points to her (Allen) as the person who likely struck the fatal blow."
Speaking through his secretary, Allen's attorney Ryan Mynard said Monday he had no comment on the plea deal.
Sherwin would have testified at trial that he and Allen left Logan and his 3-year-old sister, Olivia, locked in their Crestview home, "sometimes for hours on end," according to Elmore and the State Attorney's Office news release.
Elmore said Allen had a "telephone boyfriend" who was scheduled to testify that he overheard her striking the children.
Comments Allen made to friends about the children, whom Sherwin had fathered with another woman, also would have been introduced as evidence, Elmore said.
"All the things she said, including expressing the frustration she experienced about having his children at the home, led us to believe she was the one that struck out against the children," he said.
One of the child neglect charges to which Allen agreed to plea was filed on behalf of Olivia Sherwin, the 2-year-old, the news release states.
Crestview police responded to a 911 call to the couple's home on Pinellas Drive on Dec. 28, 2011.
They reported finding Logan malnourished and with bruising on his feet, forehead, lower legs, both arms and around his spinal column.
There also was a large bump on the front side of the child's head, police said.
Sherwin told an officer that his son was potty trained and that he fell and hit his head while using the bathroom by himself, initial reports said.
Investigators reported finding the toilet lid in the home broken in three pieces.
Police also said there was little food in the house and estimated Logan weighed only a little more than 20 pounds.
Sherwin also told police his son had fallen while playing in the yard on the day of his death and received a "fat lip," the report from the crime scene said. Sherwin told investigators the boy cried a little after the outside fall but said he was OK and went back to play.
Yvonne Jones, the grandmother of Logan and Olivia Sherwin, said even a 65-year sentence would be less than what Allen deserved.
"She took the life of a child," said Jones, an employee at the Sheriff's Office in Elizabeth City, N.C. "She took a life and she should at least spend her life in jail. She took the life of that child and he will never be able to do anything we all want our kids to do."

Calculates two-dimensional transient and steady-state heat conduction within objects that can be described in a rectangular grid. It is well adapted to the following applications:
- General heat conduction problems
- Analysis of thermal bridges
- Calculation of U-values for building construction parts
- Estimation of surface temperatures (surface condensation risks)
- Calculation of heat losses to the ground from a house
- Optimization of insulation fitting
- Analysis of floor heating systems
- Analysis of window frames
- An integrated pre-processor facilitates the input procedure
- Material properties may easily be edited and added. Several material list are available. The default list (Default.mtl) contains about 200 common building materials. The list General.mtl has over 1200 defined materials. Another file with over 200 materials (in German) from the German standard DIN (Deutsches Institut f�r Normung, DIN V 4108-4) is also available.
- A simple numerical mesh generation option is available. The mesh can easily be changed.
- Any structure consisting of adjacent or overlapping rectangles with any combination of materials may be simulated. Up to 62500 (250�250) nodes may be used.
- Boundary conditions may be a given heat flow, or an air temperature with a surface resistance. Temperatures and heat flows may vary in time by one of the following functions: sinusoidal, stepwise constant or linear (data may be imported/exported from/to programs such as Excel). Several other formats with climatic data can be imported.
- Available modifications: heat sources/sinks, internal boundaries of prescribed temperature, internal regions containing air or fluid of a single temperature, internal resistances. Radiation inside cavities makes it e.g. possible to simulate a room or a crawl-space ventilated with an outdoor temperature that varies sinusoidally. The maximum number of areas with internal modifications is 100 (one application is analysis of floor heating with many pipes).
- Conductances and capacities may be written to file.
- Temperature field may be written to file and can easily be imported into other programs such as Matlab.
- Temperatures, heat flows, and numerical cell indices may be presented at arbitrarily chosen coordinates (x, y).
heat transfer, 2D, dynamic, simulation
The program is validated against the standard EN ISO 10211 and EN ISO 10077-2. See http://www.buildingphysics.com/index-filer/ISOValidation.htm.
Expertise Required
High level of computer literacy not required; engineering background helpful for analysis
Over 1000 in more than 25 countries (about half of them are within universities and research institutes).
Mechanical, energy, and architectural engineers working for architect/engineer firms, consulting firms, universities and research laboratories.
The integrated pre-processor is a CAD-like drawing program that makes it simple to generate input for a wide range of heat transfer problems. The geometry is built using rectangles of different materials that may overlap each other. The geometry and mesh are automatically generated. Boundary conditions are specified before solving the problem.
The following editing features are available: zoom, fit in window, select, select all of a current material, move, bring to front, send to back, import image file (EMF, WMF, BMP, ICO), import objects from other data files, add reference points.
There are extensive graphical capabilities: figures showing geometry, materials, numerical mesh, boundary conditions, 2D and 3D temperature and heat flow fields and isotherms may be displayed. Features: zoom, panning, rotation, color/gray-scale, high-resolution printing. Heat flows and temperatures can be recorded and shown during the simulation. Drawing of heat flow magnitude in color or in black and white. Images of heat flows make it simpler to determine thermal bridges and to improve designs by optimizing the insulation at areas with large heat flows. Arrays indicating magnitude and direction of heat flow may be drawn.
A "recorder" may save at specified intervals (transient or steady-state) temperatures and heat flows at given points, heat flow through boundary segments, heat flows through internal modification areas, and through internal lines.
Computer Platform
Standard PC running Windows 95/98/NT or compatible. A PC with a Pentium processor and 32 MB RAM is recommended.
Programming Language
Robust, fast and easy to use. Well-documented and well-tested program. The time to generate the complete input for a reasonably complicated case is less than 10 minutes after a few hours' experience of the program. Large problems with 60,000 numerical cells may be solved.
Cartesian coordinates must be used (sloped boundaries are modeled using 'steps').

Ten staff set to lose jobs as Barrow Lidl store closes
Last updated at 15:49, Monday, 11 June 2012
TEN people will lose their jobs when Lidl in Barrow closes its doors for good next month.
The supermarket chain announced to staff in Barrow at the start of the month that it plans to shut down the store on Wednesday July 25.
It has offered a transfer to another store to all those affected, but the nearest Lidl supermarket is over an hour away in Morecambe.
One employee, who asked not to be named, said they were all disappointed at the news and did not understand the company's decision to close the store.
Clare Norman, public relations manager for Lidl, said: "The existing site was compromised in terms of space required to accommodate our range of products and unfortunately we were unable to extend the store due to site constraints. The staff were met on site by the regional director as well as the district manager and the reasons for closure were explained to them.
"Lidl would like thank all of our staff and loyal customers for their support over the years."
Lidl has said it is continuing to look at options for buildinglarger stores in Cumbria, where it has four other supermarkets.
The closure of the Barrow store comes despite reports showing Europe's economic crisis has seen shoppers flock to the discount supermarkets in record numbers.
The first quarter of 2012 saw Lidl grow 11.3 per cent to give it a 2.8 per cent share of the UK's grocery trade, while Aldi also has a 2.8 per cent share after its sales grew by 25.4 per cent over the same period.
In May last year, the Asda supermarket chain bought Netto's 193 UK stores in a deal worth £778 million in an aggressive bid to close the gap on market leader Tesco.
While most Nettos across the country were to be converted into Asda stores, Barrow's Netto – which traded out of premises in Risedale Road – was put up for sale as a condition set by the Office of Fair Trading, and is set to become an Aldi after being sold.

Have your say
well said Hindpool lad they ruined it when hey pulled piggy lane down
How much more successful would this store have been if some half-witted Carlisle based highway planners hadn't decided Barrow needed a ctiy centre style ring road system? The changes made to the incoming A590 alongside the store make it difficult to reach for the majority of the inhabitants of the town. Walney Road has always been one of the widest roads in the town - why on earth it needed to be reduced to a ridiculous one way system is beyond me.

As the snow falls outside and we wait out the cold grip of winter, why not warm the heart by making plans for a spring garden? One idea is hosting a Gothic-themed garden instead of a backyard dotted with friendly garden gnomes and innocent animal garden statues. If you feel bad about keeping the gnomes in storage, you could always put a few, choice gnome statues on display while other parts of the garden are dedicated to fine Gothic statuary. However, no matter how you decide to decorate the backyard with Gothic-themed decor, don't forget the gargoyle sculpture. One or more of these classic Gothic statues are an absolute essential aspect of any Gothic-themed garden.
For a look that blends the storied appearance of a Medieval gargoyle with details that pay homage to horror classics, buy the Chained Cathedral Gargoyle Statue. When guests see this eerie sculpture in the garden, they will realize that they aren't walking into any ordinary castle. If you would like to add a regal yet somewhat intimidating Gothic touch to the backyard, put Gargoyle Sentinel Statues on display! Try the fantastic Boden Gargoyle Sentinel Statue and the Argos Gargoyle Sentinel Statue for full effect. No matter which gargoyle statues you choose, don't forget to add another gothic gargoyle touch with Roland the Gargoyle Rain Gutter.
Find these and dozens of other fantastic garden gargoyle statues at Design Toscano today.

Each year, more and more people look forward to BusCon as a chance to network, learn about new trends and technology, and gain the tools that are necessary to revitalize the way they tackle their own operations.
The countdown clocks were developed in part to address concerns about the overall accessibility of MTA's Bus Time system, which sends wait-time information to riders via text message, a QR code scan, or over a web site.
The report argues that the city should be pushing for the "gold standard" of BRT. That would include a control station that monitors buses and ensures they come at well-spaced intervals and enclosed stops that shelter customers.

BBC's time traveling Doctor has his own, free-to-play browser MMO that's undergoing a bit of a preview. It's certainly different from any other traditional MMO and it's not because of the quirky Doctor.
The 2D art style and the puzzle-based gameplay set it apart from some of the more combat hungry F2P titles out there making it something of a mental game than a twitch based one. Though when you're trying to solve things while on the clock, you might be twitching anyway from trying to beat it.
Right now, the only thing you need to sign up for it is an email address. Once that's punched in, you're briefed by Doctor in the TARDIS on what has to be done to keep space-time from unraveling, all presumably leading up to a spectacular climax.
I made it to the second mission where I was promptly mauled by living mannequins when my AI controlled teammates couldn't unlock a door in time. One can always team up with other living people, though, for a better chance at survival.
And everything is puzzle based from rewiring cables, unlocking doors, to combat which is handled through a Tetris-like mechanic. There are also levels earned to grow your character and even a bit of crafting to build new toys. It also looks like the game will use micro-transactions to purchase special "Chronos" points for in-game goodies like clothing or upgrades.
The points slowly generate themselves over time – think glacially slowly – making it tempting to splurge a few bucks to get a slight boost providing a look at how the game may finance itself in the long run. Or you can just stick to what it gives you for free and earn things the old fashioned way as you save the universe.
