As we move ahead in our quest for growth and improvements, we should never forget our roots and return to society what was heaped unto us. This issue focuses on the essence of true charity and compassion. True charity is to give something without expecting anything in return for the gift and Compassion is to show benevolence to earth's living things and respect for life.
The meritorious deed of charity is highly praised by every religion. Those who have enough to maintain themselves should think of others and extend their generosity deserving cases. Among people who practise charity, there are some who give as a means of attracting others into their religion or creed. Such an act of giving which is performed with the ulterior motive of conversion cannot really be said to be true charity.
The Buddhism views charity as an act to reduce personal greed which is an unwholesome mental state which hinders spiritual progress. A person who is on his way to spiritual growth must try to reduce his own selfishness and his strong desire for acquiring more and more. He should reduce his strong attachment to possessions which, if he is not mindful, can enslave him to greed. What he owns or has should instead be used for the benefit and happiness of others: his loved ones as well as those who need his help.
Whenever somebody is in trouble and needs help, they should respond if they are able to. Furthermore, they should extend the same loving-kindness to society at large, to people of all races and creeds. They can donate liberally according to their ability to worthy causes or they can start nearer to home by extending compassion and aid to their elderly neighbours or helping someone in need. Only by adopting a pure heart with a broad attitude will serve to make one's life meaningful and rewarding.
Yours in the Dharma

Metta's Executive Director, Venerable Shi Pu En, officiated the ceremony with a blessing ritual prior to lunch of which commenced with the auspicious starter, tossing of the yu sheng.

Metta Building and Metta School
The recent ended annual mega Metta Charity Walk cum Family Carnival 2015 proved to be another success as more than 5,000 participants and visitors joined us in the merry making in celebration of the nation's SG50 anniversary.

A Volunteers Tribute Special
This issue plays tribute to the remarkable people who have generously donated their time, expertise and energy to supporting and contributing to Metta Welfare Association. Read on as we uncover two angels who believed in paying it back to society in their own special ways.
Life's Greatest Lesson
Retiree, Mdm Doris Foo, diligently commutes to Metta Welfare Association every Monday and Wednesday. The eloquent 65-year old senior who used to work as an administrator in a consultancy firm is a volunteer with Arts@Metta since 2013. On other days that she isn't volunteering, Doris take turns to helps to look after her young grandchild.
Doris is an active and feisty lady. She believes the happiness to active ageing is keeping a healthy mind and body without being an idling retiree. Flexible schedule, a comfortable environment with great like-minded folks, excellent leadership from Alumni Executive, Ms Catherine Wong, are among the many reasons that Doris has continued to be a regular volunteer with Metta.
"Keeping a healthy active lifestyle and mind is the answer to active ageing and there's no better way to it than to give back to society through volunteering."
Doris Foo, regular volunteer at Arts@Metta
Through her volunteering experience at Arts@Metta also brings about new craft skills and the art of batik painting for Doris. Some of her adhoc duties includes framing the canvas cloths for the alumni youths to create their wonder pieces of batik art.
Doris added that volunteering opportunity allows her to improve on her well-being. Many times, the carefree schedule of being a volunteer makes her less anxious in life as she enjoys what she does. Volunteering also taught Doris new things she never knew before: learning to communicate with youths with special needs. As she shared,
"I never knew much about autism until I volunteered at Metta. This experience opens up my knowledge on how to communicate with people with autism."
The experience also trains Doris to be a less anxious person and understand the importance of a good teamwork.
An advice that Doris would dish out to younger folks on the volunteerism spirit is to see that society can be more caring, giving and helpful. This way, the world would be a much betterplace to live in.
Filial Piety Beyond Borders
Hairstylist, Li Hui, makes it a point to drop by Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre for the Elderly during his off days to offer free haircuts to the elderly clients because it brings joy and happiness to the 39-year old. A regular volunteer, Li Hui has been volunteering at Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre since July 2014.
At Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre, Li Hui could relate to the elderly clients, many of whom reminds him dearly of his aged parents. Using his hairstyling skills, Li Hui trims the hairs of the elderly clients as each took turns in queueing up for the free haircut.
A quiet man, Li Hui shares that by offering his free service to the elderly clients, he is reminded of his parents back in China. He relates in Mandarin,
"I enjoy giving free haircuts to the elderly as this reminds me greatly of my aged parents back home.
Through my simple efforts, I feel this is the best that I can do to honour them in my absence."
Li Hui, regular volunteer at Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre
Hailing from Hubei, China, Li Hui came to Singapore in 2008. Like most foreigners, Li Hui sought to seek a better prospect for his future.
In a span of 7 years of working in Singapore, Li Hui, has grown to embrace Singapore as his new home. However, the distance and time away has also made him miss his family in China. It wasn't till a customer of Li Hui introduced the young man to Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre that he found a whole new experience in volunteering.
Li Hui's volunteer stint at Metta Day Rehabilitation Centre is only the beginning. He hopes to do more for society through other means of volunteerism if he had more time away from work. In the meantime, Li Hui continues to work hard at his dream of opening his own hair salon while returning to society the
blessings that he has been given.
Altruism May Help Shield Teens From Depression
Teens who like to help others may be less likely to develop depression, a new study suggests. The study included 15- and 16-yearolds who were given three types of tasks: give money to others, keep the money for themselves or take financial risks with the hope of earning a reward.
The researchers monitored activity levels in a brain area called the ventral striatum, which controls feelings of pleasure linked to rewards. The teens were checked for symptoms of depression at the start of the study and a year later.
Activity in the ventral striatum in response to the different types of rewards predicted whether the teens would have an increase or decrease in depression symptoms, according to the study published online recently in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
"If they show higher levels of reward activation in the ventral striatum in the context of the risk-taking task, they show increases in depressive symptoms over time. And if they show higher reward activation in the pro-social context, they show declines in depression," study author Eva Telzer, a psychology professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, said in a university news release.
"This study suggests that if we can somehow redirect adolescents away from risk-taking or self-centered rewards and toward engaging in these more pro-social behaviors, then perhaps that can have a positive impact on their well-being over time," she added.
Previous research has shown that teens tend to have higher levels of ventral striatum activity, suggesting that they experience the pleasure of rewards more intensely than adults or younger children, according to the news release. Most of that research has focused on the link between ventral striatum activity and risk-taking by teens.
This study shows that ventral striatum activity may also have a positive effect in teens, Telzer said.

My Story – Finding Strength in Adversity
While most teenagers his age are engaged in the latest pop music and trends, Metta School student, Nazri, who has mild intellectual disability, spends most of his youth in KKH (Kandang Kerbau Hospital) battling acute leukaemia.
Nazri was first diagnosed with the condition two years ago during Hari Raya celebrations at home. He fell extremely sick for many days and was referred to the hospital for further checks. At 16, the unfortunate news was a great blow to the boy and his parents. Nazri had to stop attending classes at Metta School and spent the next year at KKH for chemotherapy sessions under close observation. During his hospitalisaion, Nazri was not able to go out of his ward for fear of an infection that might worsen his condition.
Despite his condition, Nazri remains an optimistic teen. He is not saddened by his condition and in fact, accepts it. Thankfully for Nazri, his friends and Metta school teachers and social worker visits him at the hospital regularly. Metta School social worker, Ms Jobina Chia, even brought a laptop for Nazri to play some computer games as he spends his time recuperating. But most of all, Nazri brightens up whenever his mother visits him at KKH. Nazri is immensely grateful to his mother for saving his life when she donated her blood cells to him for his treatment.
As he puts it,
"Without my mother, I wouldn't have survived. I wouldn't be here right now."
Through his personal experience, Nazri hopes to be able to help and counsel other young people who have similar illnesses to overcome their grief and pain. With his cancer gradually in remission, Nazri also dreams to be able to be a commercial pilot one day; flying passengers all over the world and being able to visit less privileged countries to help the less fortunate.
7 Ways To Teach Your Child About Charity
It is said that a family that practices giving and charity inculcates children who will carry on the good habit into their adulthood. While most young people are living in the technological age of the latest electronic smart devices, it is a common sight to see young commuters not giving up their seats to the elderly and needy while on their smart gadgets leading to social media public shaming. How do we evolve from a nation of uncaring citizens to a gracious society where altruistic selflessness could be the next trend in Singapore?
Charity and the spirit of giving have been elevated to a new level in the past few years, following terrible natural disasters, wars, anarchic unrest in other countries, and terrorist attacks around the globe. After
witnessing the horrific images of pain and suffering streaming steadily across their TV sets, more people than ever before have dipped deeper into their own pockets to offer much needed relief to the survivors of unprecedented tragedies.
Some parents are using the destruction delivered by these catastrophes as an opportunity to help children learn about charity and the importance of reaching out to others in their time of need. They have made generous family donations, often involving their children in picking out the charity, writing the cheque, preparing and mailing the envelope or simply to help out at a church service or a welfare organisation as a weekend family activity. They have allowed their children to witness how fortunate it is to be born in an average Singaporean family and not to take life for granted.
Clearly, recent disaster provide an opportune time to teach children about charity. How do parents teach their children to make charity an everyday affair? What if they want the spirit of giving to be a way of life for their children? How do they make charity become a habit?
Family Charity Ideas
To help your children acquire the habit of charity, consider implementing the following tips as a family:
- Donate clothes and toys
Periodically go through your closets rooting out clothes you haven't worn in a while, which can be given to charity organisations. Encourage your children to do the same. Allow them to select which clothes or toys they wish to donate. The value of this activity is diminished greatly if you go through their closets for them without their presence. For maximum benefit, get your children involved in choosing the appropriate items. Take your children with you when you drop the items off at the charitable destination.
- Help neighbours
Regularly engage in a service-oriented project. Offer to clean the house/corridor of an elderly
neighbour; perform little acts of kindness such as holding the door for others as they enter the
lift, or even assisting an elderly neighbour if they are struggling with heavy loads.
- Give blood
Take your children with you so they see you as a model for giving. Talk to them about why you choose to donate blood and how a little small effort can save a life.
- Make birthdays charitable
Set up birthday parties as a time for giving to others. At your child's first school-age birthday party, ask guests to bring a gift of a book (new or used) to be donated to a local charity. Talk to your son about the books he has and about children who have no books. Explain that one way to celebrate a birthday would be to give to those who have less. Involve the birthday boy in the decision of whether not to give the books to charity. When you deliver the books with your child, record it on camera, and revisit that movie (or those pictures) on future birthdays as a remembrance that a birthday is never about oneself, but about sharing the joy and privilege with those who have less.
- Include pets
At regular intervals, buy dog or cat food and take it to the pet welfare centres. Allow your children to spend some time with the recipients of the gift. And if it may be possible, adopt a pet to save a life. Letting your child partake in the caring and looking after a pet gives him a sense of responsibility.
- Change for a difference
Create a charity jar to be used by the family when allowances are distributed. Invite children to share some of their allowance with others through donating to the jar. As the jar fills, decide as a family where to contribute the contents. You may choose to save a stray, buy food supplies for a needy low-income person, or contribute to a charity among others. Read about various charities
on the Internet and share this information with your children to help them make an informed
- Help elders
Do things for the elderly that they have trouble doing for themselves. Mop the floor for grandma. Teach grandpa how to use the Internet. Clean their windows or simply help them to plant flowers
By implementing some of these ideas or others like them, you will be teaching your children that charity is not reserved only for emergencies. You will be helping them appreciate that reaching out to others in need is a way of life, rather than a moment in time when a catastrophic disaster occurs. Remember, while you are giving to others, you are giving your children important messages about your beliefs concerning the spirit of giving.

Daisy Lauren's Last Best Week Ever
Hi, Everyone! Welcome to the Best Week Ever here at Walt Disney World. And sadly, yes, the title is true. This will be my last Best Week Ever article! Remember that day job that keeps me from posting photos of myself? Well, I've been given an incredible promotion that will involve much more travel. While I couldn't be more excited about the opportunity, it will make it impossible to keep up with my weekly updates.
I'm so thankful to all of you that have read over the last year. I'll still be helping out on the Touring Plans instagram account, so if you miss me you can find me there. (I know I'll miss you!) And they've told me I can still stop by and post when I have time. So it isn't really goodbye. But that's enough sad stuff, let's get going with all the theme park goodness from last week!
As you can tell from the photo above, I started this week at Universal Orlando. We don't make it out that way nearly enough, but we love the parks. Arriving just after opening meant there were no crowds! It was great! I think we enjoyed the quiet morning walk as much as the park itself.
So where did we head to next? Why don't you click to find out?
Daisy Lauren's Best Week Ever: March 26, 2015
Hi, Everyone! Welcome to the Best Week Ever here at Walt Disney World. This week we're visiting the Disney's Grand Floridian Resort, spending an evening at the Magic Kingdom, and stopping by Epcot. Who is ready for some special Easter fun?
If you've never visited during this time of year you might not know about a special display at the Grand Floridian. For just a few special weeks, incredible hand painted candy eggs are put out on display in the lobby of the hotel. Each of these eggs weigh between 9 and 12 pounds and stand anywhere from 16 to 20 inches tall. It's pretty incredible to see! Starting with this special egg that's on display in the lobby at the villas:

Innoventions West at Epcot to See Massive Changes
Updated on 3/21/15 with additional information.
The rumors had been floating around this week and the Orlando Sentinel has confirmed it — Epcot is making massive changes to Innoventions West beginning this spring.
So what does this all mean? Well it means that we can say goodbye to the THINK exhibit, Where's the Fire, and The Great Piggy Bank Adventure. (Nooo!!! Save the piggies!!!) All three are slated to be leaving and will be replaced.
To make way for this massive overhaul of Innoventions West, the area's last day of operation will be on April 29.
It does appear that the Disney Visa Cardmember character meet and greet will be staying, though no word on if it will be moved to a different location during the closure of the space or if it will also temporarily close while work is being done.
In addition, another attraction is closing in Innoventions East — the Vision House, which will no longer be available starting April 22.
Innoventions has always been a place where Guests could learn and discover amazing technologies and how those technologies are making life better through hands-on, walk-through exhibits that are sponsored by corporations. The various exhibits found inside the pavilion have been known to rotate periodically.
There is no word on what exactly will replace these exhibits. Innoventions East (which houses Sum of All Thrills, StormStruck, and Habit Heroes) will remain open.
Disney It Yourself: StormStruck and THINK App Reviews
We've reached the conclusion of my Innovention-based game review series. To read about the Great Piggy Bank Adventure app, click here. For Habit Heroes and Sum of All Thrills, click here.
Today, we've got apps based off of the StormStruck and THINK exhibits. Let's get this storm brewin'!
StormStruck: A Tale of Two Homes was first introduced April 16, 2012 in the iTunes App Store. It has had no updates since its release and requires iOS 3.1.3 or later. The app, presented by the Federal Alliance for Safe Homes, Inc. (or FLASH), is compatible with the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. I had no issues when downloading the program on to my second generation iPad and iPhone 6.

Disney It Yourself: Habit Heroes App and Sum of All Thrills Game Reviews
Here I am again with more game reviews based off of different attractions found at Innoventions. If you missed my review of the Great Piggy Bank Adventure App, read that here.
These reviews are part of my new series, DIY (Disney It Yourself), where I explore different ways to enjoy Disney Parks at home.
As you'll soon see, I experienced hits along with a few misses. First on the list: the Habit Heroes App!
Habit Heroes
The Habit Heroes app was introduced in the Apple App Store December 12th, 2012. It can also be downloaded via Google Play. It is based off the attraction of the same name, found at Innoventions East in Epcot. The app states:
The Habit Heroes mobile app is a comic book that chronicles the adventures of the healthy Habit Heroes as they clean up health hazards around the globe. Each comic book issue unlocks an interactive tool that helps foster healthy habits in your every day life.

Disney It Yourself: The Great Piggy Bank Adventure App Review
Imagine yourself sitting in front of the television on a Sunday evening. There you are minding your own business when suddenly, a Disney Parks commercial comes on.
BAM! The nostalgia hits you like a ton of bricks. You get that yearning feeling in the pit of your stomach while your heart aches for the most magical place on earth. Your next trip isn't for several months. What can you do?!
In this series, I'm on a quest to scratch that Disney itch from the comfort of my own home. I'll be reviewing Disney apps, trying out Disney crafts and exploring different options for satisfying that Disney craving.
First on the agenda: The Great Piggy Bank Adventure App.
The Great Piggy Bank Adventure App was first introduced in the Apple App Store on June 24, 2013. An update followed on March 14, 2014. It is based off the attraction of the same name, found at Innoventions West in Epcot. It is published by Disney and is presented by T. Rowe Price.
Walt Disney World Newsworthy Notes 12/30/14
The year is almost over, and I'm back again with one more newsworthy update for 2014! There are quite a few things that guests should know about the Walt Disney World Resort for the beginning of the new year, so I'm here to share everything with you. Ready to get to it? Let's go!
- Back a few months ago, (October to be exact), we found out that Island Supply shop would be closing in Adventureland for a new concept. Many in the Disney community were hopeful…would we be getting a shop featuring some of the great Adventureland-themed merchandise sold at the Marketplace Co-Op? Well, I have your answer, and the answer is, "No." The shop will reopen on January 8 as Island Supply by Sunglass Hut. That means you can purchase high-end sunglasses and other products offered by this new operating participant. In addition, another store selling similar merchandise will open on January 4 at Typhoon Lagoon: Sal's Shades by Sunglass Hut.
- Two of Epcot's Innoventions exhibits will close in the beginning of January. The first is the THINK Exhibit by IBM. This exhibit in Innoventions East allowed guests to take part in three unique experiences that allowed them to engage in a conversation about how we can improve the way we live and work. This exhibit will close January 1. Also closing in Innoventions East is the Test the Limits Lab. Here guests can "test" products to make sure they are safe for consumers by shattering a TV screen, dropping a safe, and more. It will close on January 6. There is no word on whether anything will be replacing either of these two exhibits.
Favorite Park Series: Disney's Epcot
Hello again! Welcome to Epcot. If you haven't read my highlights on Disney's Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom, please do so now.
*Twiddles thumbs. Checks Twitter. Reads a blog post.*
Done? Okay, let's 'soar' right in!
Memorable Moments
Pick your mode of transportation! Soarin' is a popular ride that allows you to hang-glide over California, feeling the wind in your face whilst smelling the fragrance of zesty orange trees. (Fun Fact: The first model for Soarin' was made out of an erector set!) Once you land on solid ground, hop in a Chevy at Test Track. Strap yourself in and brace yourself for the ride of your life! Put on your space suit, join the NASA team and shoot for the stars as you travel to Mars in your rocket via Mission: Space. To ease back into Earth's gravity, swim underwater to the 'clamobile' where The Seas with Nemo & Friends take you "under the sea." Finally, use those feet and travel indoors to Innoventions where you'll find interactive and educational games the whole family will enjoy.
Innoventions Uncovered
In the comments of a recent post, one of our awesome readers asked for an article about Innoventions. This spot is nice for hiding from nasty weather, and most of the exhibits are pretty interesting. Not to mention it doesn't draw big crowds, making it a perfect spot for the heat of the day. So what's worth seeing, and what gets a skip? Check out below for my opinions. Let me know what you think in the comments below.
Innoventions West
The Great Piggy Bank Adventure: This one is a must see for me. We even stop by and play pretty often. At the start of this game you are assigned an actual piggy bank that you carry with you through your journey. He is the cutest, fattest little pig! I wish they were for sale! Once you have your piggy bank, you take him through a series of virtual games in your quest to become a financial smarty pants. If you'd like a sneak peek of The Great Piggy Bank Adventure you can visit online. Game Rating: 9 out of 10.
THINK: I've been through this exhibit several times, but I still just don't… get it. There's a large video wall, a movie that plays on a loop, and touch columns that walk you through an interactive tour. The focus of the exhibit is efficiency and sustainability through technology. Unfortunately, I find this one to be pretty boring and highly skippable. Game Rating: 3 out of 10.

Raytheon to Celebrate National Engineers Week at Epcot
Did you know that February 16 – 22 is National Engineers Week? To celebrate, Raytheon (the sponsor of Sum of All Thrills) will bring park guests closer to the action and showcase that science really can be fun. At Epcot's Innoventions West, from February 17 – 21, guests will get to participate in hands on experiments led by real scientists in a show called Raytheon's "Science Thrills Live."
During this interactive stage show featuring the host of "The Dr. Erika Show," guests will get to participate in science experiments such as nucleation-triggered eruption (explode soda), conservation of angular momentum (go head to head against each other in a giant tug of war), thermoplastic recycling (melt milk jugs), and more.
Showtimes are at 11:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m., 2:00 p.m., 3:00 p.m., and 4:00 p.m. The presentation is free to park guests and will last approximately 20 minutes.
Bonus! Everyone who visits will walk away with a giveaway. Once guests have participated, they can then head over to Sum of All Thrills to utilize more science in an effort to design and experience their own thrill ride.

They'll be put to sleep next week in the first round of what may be the best first round matchup in 4A against Westlake. Don't let that record fool you as Westlake is a live underdog I'm my opinion.

MC played well against good quality higher compotition. No matter what the guys in Logan say. MC is not so good this year but I wouldn't be suprised if they made it past one or two rounds. Highland will win the title though. I am a die hard MC fan but I'm just basing my predictions on fact. Love you coach Wooton but Highland is just to good to be beaten in the playoffs this year.

Westlake has come alive. True. But don't be surprised if they are blown out. Northridge is a very good team with a 2nd place finish in a tough 5A region. The key is if MC can keep their O going and limit mistakes, they will go deep. A tough road, though, with Timpview and East in their bracket. Sorry Stang08, Highland is in trouble with their QB out; they are not the same team that blew everyone out, like Cedar, earlier in the year. Their back is so good but the Smithson kid really made them hard to defend with his running and passing ability.

Good point but region 6 is still taking the title again. Weather it be Bountiful or East regaurdless of the Logan loss. And who knows Highland may suprise everyone and take it again.

Yesterday, news broke that Brooke Mueller had finally checked into a rehab center in Los Angeles after partying with her husband Charlie Sheen the previous night.
Today, there are reports that Brooke entered rehab to treat her alleged addiction to crack.
"Brooke has been in denial about her problem for a long time," a source told Radar.
"Her mother has been attempting to convince her to go into rehab for a while now," the source added.
Charlie has had his fair share of problems in the past, we're just hoping he has his life together now because he has to be there for their kids as Brooke gets the serious help she needs.
Crack is WHACK!

Clarence Gideon, Former SLB CEO
Clarence Gideon passed away on January 16th. After graduating from Topeka High School, serving in the Pacific Theater as Staff Sergeant in the U.S. Army, Clarence graduated from Washburn University, both undergrad and the law school. Dad began his career as a lawyer. When the opportunity came up to purchase control of Silver Lake Bank in 1968, he rose to the challenge and began his banking career in the town of Silver Lake.
Over the years, many customer stories about Dad have been shared with me. Dad had a keen ability to truly listen to customers and understand their situation.

Beware of Asphalt Paving Scams.
Asphalt driveways begin to look pretty worn after a few harsh winters. Its only natural for a homeowner to want to get restoration work done quickly and as cheaply as possible. The ability to hit and run fast is key to a successful asphalt paving scam. Crews usually wander from one community to another offering a driveway sealing service. They typically approach consumers in their yards, promising low estimates because of leftover materials from a competed job nearby.
They may offer lifetime guarantees, but often the material quality and application is inferior. Unfortunately, the paving crew is long gone by the time you discover a problem. Its up to consumers to protect themselves from scam artists. Ask for references and check them before agreeing to have the work done. Take the crews written estimate, and tell them you will get back to them. Get bids from stablished local paving companies to compare prices. Dont let them pressure you to have the work done immediately!

"I work between 40 to 50 hours a week along with going to school. It took me a year-and-a-half to get from washing dishes to cooking. ... Some people say that I'm not going to be able to do it all the time, but it is all mindset. If you set your mind to it, you can do anything," he said.
"I could cook for the rest of my life and make $12 an hour as long as I know my son and my fiancee or future wife are happy. Their happiness to me means more than mine."
What gets Jeremy through those long shifts -- and any extra he can pick up on the weekend -- is thinking about his cherished time with Carter.
"My favorite part of the day is the intermission between school and work because then I get to spend time with my son," he said. "See him grow more. Learn more things. Being a teen parent, you're still being introduced to the adult world, so you're learning new things as well."
But even with that added responsibility, Jeremy and Aliki still can't help wanting to be teenagers. The tension in the house heats up every Wednesday when Jeremy is off from work and wants to go to the Haverhill YMCA to practice his martial arts flipping.
It's not nearly as easy for Aliki to just go off and have fun. "He does get to go do flips. I mean, when I go out with my friends to the mall, the baby always goes with me," she said. "Before I go out somewhere, I have to pack up a diaper bag, make sure everything's in there, not just bottles and formula. I can't just pack up the thing and say, 'Hey, I'm going out.'"
Jeremy argues that flipping is the one thing in his life that keeps him focused and balanced. "It helps me clear my head. So I get aggravated when they say I can't go flip because that's a week I go without a clear mind," he said.
Over the past year, ABC News followed Jeremy through his highs and lows. In March, the pressure became too much and he stopped going to school. Two months later, he and Aliki ended their relationship.
Jeremy tries not to place the blame on himself or Aliki. "We've both had our fair share of stress, mine being work, school and hers being school and home," he said. "I mean, staying home and taking care of the baby can be very stressful, but what I deal with at work can be, too. So I can't really say it's harder on either of us, but she took it better than I did."
Surprisingly, even though Jeremy is no longer with Aliki, he had decided to honor his commitment to Carter and remain living with Aliki and her family. He says while he may have failed in school and in love, his bond with his son will never be broken. That's who he wants to make most proud, and he's afraid he's already let his son down.
"It's not gonna feel good for him when he's older, saying his dad never succeeded and graduated on time and whatnot. It just feels kinda bad," Jeremy said.
With all the hope of a young man who's taken some falls, but hasn't given up, Jeremy told "Primetime," "Losing Aliki has made me realize what I wanted in life, what I needed to do. How I needed to act to be a good father and potentially a good husband, but I hope that I can fix the situation, repair everything with Aliki. But if not, then I'll just try to make her happy however I can."
Despite their breakup, Aliki has nothing but praise for Jeremy's skills as a father.

Columbus loved the Olympics, landing in top 5 markets for TV viewers
The London Olympics were the most-watched event in television history, and Columbus did its part in getting the games the distinction.
The Olympics scored the fifth-highest ratings in the U.S. in the Columbus market, with an average of 21.9 percent of area households tuning in, according to Mediabistro.
Columbus trailed only Salt Lake City, Kansas City, Milwaukee and Denver, Mediabistro said. Elsewhere in Ohio, Cleveland and Cincinnati were less interested in the games, with relatively unpatriotic ratings of 18.1 and 17.7, respectively.
Even better for NBC's local affiliate, WCMH-TV, Mediabistro said the Olympics provided a boost for news programs, which in 56 markets averaged ratings increases of 53 percent in the mornings and 84 percent for late night newscasts.
It's good to know Central Ohio residents care about sports other than football.

I never said they cover any and everything, but nice try at putting words in my mouth. While nobody can say with 100% certainty that this is a covered claim (unless you have their insurance policy to review), these are the exact types of claims that D&O policies are meant to cover.....thus it's highly probably that szym will face $0 financial exposure to thsee claims.
you clearly have little to no knowledge of what a D&O policy is intended for or how it reacts. Would not be surprised if you're googling to figure out what D&O insurance even is.
highly suspicious that these class action claims are just now trickling in and all at once. These suits would've made much more sense earlier in the year not long after JW announced the change of direction and the stock plummeted. Potential future equity raise is a legitimate concern but I think we head higher from here and this is a manipulation effort. Speculation of course but I've seen these games played before. BOL.
Sentiment: Buy
while glassdoor can maybe shed a little light into employee morale....the very limited number of reviews means we should take them with a grain of salt. I have personally only left a review on glassdoor when I didn't like my employer. I assume most others are the same in that you're much more likely to leave a review if you really dislike an employer than if you really enjoyed working with an employer.
that's because anytime there's a decent stock drop...lawfirm come out of the woodwork looking for securities claims. There are legitimate scenarios for securities claims and then there are the leeches who bring securities suits everytime a stock has sizable drops. Very bizarre that they are bringing the suits now as opposed to when JW said they were compeltely re-hauling their strategy and the stock was in the 2's. This may be a buying opp if anything as something fishy behind the scenes appears to be going on.
correct as long as they don't exhaust their insurance limit (whatever it is)...although I would think they have more than enough coverage for something like this.
insurance will provide coverage regardless if it's duty or non-duty to defend. Insurance still provides the coverage it's just a matter of whether solazyme will chose the defense or the insurance company will.
great, thanks pkm.
what's the reddit board link? I'm tired of reading the garbage that continuously gets posted here.
oddly enough I'm actually with you. I wanted to add more in upper $2's but it never got back down there. I then sold half my position in upper $3's waiting for a pullback to the mid $3's before adding. It's not often that I actually want to see a stock I own go down but I'm still hoping for a little more pullback so I can re-enter with my other half and gain some shares.
Oh I forgot to add. You never actually addressed how you "know" Roquette is selling. Once again all you do is provide your opinion as fact and claim everyone else is an idiot. Good day troll and please short this stock if you are so sure in your beliefs.
Hahahahaha I really got to u. I do love how you take your opinion and relay it a verifiable fact. Carry on troll.

2007 Isuzu i290 Pickup Q&A
2007 Isuzu i290 Pickup Question: Truck won't start, OBD and Passlock sensor lights illuminated, battery charged.
Went out to start my truck this morning and it would not crank. Hooked it up to the battery charger and after less than 10 minutes the charger read "fully charged." When I turn the key, my radio and all other features work, however, it won't crank...just a click. The OBD and Passlock sensor lights are illuminated when the key is turned. The only other time I have had an issue with this truck is when getting gas and they didn't close my gas cap. - davey1135
Answer 1
Check for battery voltage to the starter...if >12.5V = bad starter, if <12.5V = high resistance in wire to starter... - your.mechanic

DEFINITION of 'Minimum Lease Payments'
The lowest amount that a lessee can expect to make on a lease over its lifetime. Accountants calculate minimum lease payments in order to assign a present value to a lease. The method of calculating minimum lease payments is laid out in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 (FAS: 13), which was published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in 1980.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Minimum Lease Payments'
Although common sense suggests that the minimum lease payments on a 12-month lease at $1,000 a month should be $12,000, this number can be complicated by contractual clauses. Although executory costs like maintenance and insurance are usually excluded because they are the responsibility of the lessor, several factors can be add to the cost of a lease. These include any guarantees made by the lessee to the lessor about the residual value of the leased property at the end of the lease as well as any payments for non-renewal of the lease. Once these are factored in, a reasonable present value can be assigned to the lease for accounting purposes.
Accounting for minimum lease payments differs from the perspectives of the lessee and lessor. To learn more about this subject, read the original document available from the FASB.
