Artist of the Week: Jessie J
Although Lady GaGa's new single "Born This Way" sold 60,000 copies-plus in just 34 hours, it could not top the single by Jessie J at the U.K. Singles chart. A newcomer in the music industry, Jessie is one to watch out this year for she has won the major music lovers in U.K. with her collaboration with American rapper B.o.B, and her victory at the BRITs.
This week at the singles chart, "Price Tag" holds on to its first position which she claimed last week. It also stopped "Champion", the new single from Chipmunk featuring R 'n' B star Chris Brown, from taking the throne. According to Official Chart Update, "Price Tag" and "Champion" recorded strong sales of more than 90,000 each but there was a winning margin of less than 5%.
Her first album, "Who You Are", will be released in the United States on February 25, boasting as well a hit called "Do It Like a Dude" which Jessie said is "about male egos in the music industry". She has begun promoting the effort with a number of U.K. dates which will soon be followed by others.
Asked whether she's ready for a world domination, the 22-year-old songwriter/singer said, "You do it behind the scenes for so long and then your dreams come true. Now I'm ready to take the flag around the world representing the U.K."

Exchanges woo insurers with futures alternative to OTC swaps
With derivatives set to become more expensive as new legislations begin to bite, insurers are looking at how they might be able to adjust their hedging strategies in order to bring costs down while still maintaining a good match for their liabilities. Swap futures have emerged as a possible solution, but a certain amount of scepticism remains as to whether they can actually provide the accurate match for long-dated liabilities that insurers need. New collateral management rules - the Dodd-Frank...

Costly cruelty: Workplace bullies hard to stop
Ron McMillan must have seemed like the perfect target to the three workers on an assembly line in Clearfield, Utah. McMillian had just finished his first year at college in the summer of 1971 and looked clean-cut, nice and perhaps naïve. So they bullied him.
"They'd do things like when I sat down at lunch — while I was eating, they would distract me," he says. "Then they'd pour motor oil on my sandwich."
They were relentless. They mocked him. They put him down.
"Words do hurt," he says. "They do damage."
That was when McMillan was, as he says, "quite young." The experience helped stir an interest in workplace bullying. Now, at 61, he is the co-author of the national best-seller "Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High" and cofounder of VitalSmarts, an organizational consulting firm based in Provo, Utah. He is also part of a large demographic. Various studies place the percentage of people who have been bullied at work between 30 and 37 percent.
A study in the Management Communication Quarterly said workplace bullying can lead to psychosomatic illnesses, post-traumatic stress disorder, suicidal thoughts and increased medical expenses, not to mention reduced productivity.
Gary Namie gained his interest in the topic after his wife experienced the "boss from hell."
"We thought it was harassment. Or maybe, it was dealing with a difficult person," he says.
They had no name for the experience until he heard of workplace bullying.
"You can be bullied and not even know it," he says, "You can be immersed in this misery and slide down a notch every day."
In 1997, Namie started what would eventually be called the Workplace Bullying Institute, based in Bellingham, Wa. The institute provides resources for employees who have been bullied and trains employers to end bullying in the workplace.
What is workplace bullying?
Pamela Lutgen-Sandvik, an associate professor of organizational communication at North Dakota State University, says workplace bullying is persistent aggression against someone. "It is repetitive," she says. "It continues on and on, getting worse over time. It is frequent. The bully picks away at the target. The victim feels they are unable to stop the attacks. They feel powerless, or at least less powerful than the bully."
Lutgen-Sandvik remembers her first job at a women's resource center for battered women. Ironically, the executive director was a "screaming, raging bully," even in front of the battered women, who would cringe and grab the arms of their chairs.
Eventually, employees informed the center's board of directors. It took months, but the boss was removed.
Who are the bullies?
Lutgen-Sandvik calls the worst workplace bullies "high aggressives."
"They don't have a well-developed sense of empathy," she says. "They are high on narcissism."
They are horrible one second to a target, she says, then perform beautifully with smiles for a supervisor.
Sam Horn, author of "Take the Bully by the Horns," says the way bullies treat others has a lot to do with perceived social status. People above them get treated well, those "below" not so well.
Lutgen-Sandvik says bullies' low sense of self-esteem or security can make them target anyone perceived as a threat. Bullies fear losing their place of power. Driven by fear, she says, they don't care about others' feelings.

The blueberry season will begin this year around early to mid July, depending on the weather. We will know better near the end or June. The season will last about 3 or 4 weeks.
Closed for 2015 Christmas season
We are now closed for the 2015 Christmas season. It seems that we were unable to escape mud this year. We appreciate everyone who came out in spite of the mud and cut their trees. We wish everyone a merry Christmas.
Christmas tree sales
We will be open for you to choose and cut your own Christmas tree through Saturday, December 19. We are open daily from 8 to 4:30.
Christmas trees
You may choose and cut your own Christmas tree beginning the day after Thanksgiving, Friday, November 27. Starting then, we will be open daily from 8 till 4:30. The price is $50 for any tree you choose and cut yourself. If you wish to have the tree shaken and baled, there is a $7 charge for that. We have Douglas fir, Fraser fir, Canaan fir, balsam fir, white pine, and Scotch pine.
2015 blueberry season over
The 2015 blueberry season is over for this year. We appreciate the people who came to pick blueberries this year in difficult circumstances due to all the rain. Hopefully, next year will be a better year. You may choose and cut your own Christmas tree beginning the day after Thanksgiving.
Blueberry season near end
The 2015 blueberry season is nearing the end. There are fewer berries on the bushes than earlier and it takes longer to pick the same amount of berries. In addition,due to the excessive rains, there is standing water and mud in the fields. Picking is difficult. For now, we are open for those who want blueberries and are willing to pick in difficult conditions.
Blueberry season to begin
We will begin picking blueberries on Thursday, July 9. Starting then, we will be open Monday through Saturday from 8 until 4:30. The price is $2 per pound for pick-your-own blueberries. At the time this is written, there is water standing in many of the fields. The water is slowly going down now that we have gone a few days without rain. It remains to be seen what conditions will be on July 9.
Closed for the season
Tammen Treeberry Farm is now closed for the 2014 Christmas season. We hope to see you next year. Thank you for coming to visit our farm to choose and cut your own Christmas tree. We wish everyone a merry Christmas.

So I bought a code from unlockforcheap.com for a Samsung s4 and paid for the 1 to 6 hours service. I got my code in about 2 hours. I had some problems using the code initially which was because I'm a novice and wasn't doing it correctly. I emailed them and expressed me concern and withing a minute I got a detailed response outlining step by step what I was to do. Took me about 3 minutes but my phone is unlocked! I would recommend them to anyone, whether you're a professional or a do it yourselfer, it works and is easy.

Once, a Feilding schoolboy named Ewen Macdonald gave a girl in his primary school class love letters filled with confetti and lollies. She opened her desk to find the thoughtful gift among her schoolbooks, and rewarded his devotion by watching him play cricket at lunchtimes.
Two decades later and Macdonald's life is in tatters, his marriage and reputation torn apart despite his acquittal for the murder of his brother-in-law, Scott Guy.
The jury considering whether Macdonald murdered his brother-in-law found him not guilty yesterday afternoon after nearly 11 hours of deliberation.
Although it was common knowledge that the two men clashed, it sent shockwaves through the community when Macdonald was arrested for murder.
The picture painted by those who knew him growing up in Feilding is of a normal, well-adjusted schoolboy, who came from a supportive family and grew into a well-respected family man.
That version of Macdonald – the happy-go-lucky, popular teenager – seems hard to reconcile with the man who has appeared on the nation's television screens in the past month.
During the trial, the only time he broke down in tears was when his wife, Anna, told a jury their life had never been more perfect than on the day before her brother was shot dead.
The farm they co-owned was performing well, they had been on holiday to Fiji, her husband was spending more time at home with their young children and, most importantly, he was beginning to mend the tattered working relationship with his brother-in-law. So how did he find himself in the dock?
At Feilding High School, the sun shines brightly. Pupils zoom down the long corridors, hang out nonchalantly on the concrete steps, fall over laughing outside the cafeteria.
The library is quiet, but there in the black-and-white pages of the school magazine, Sheaf, the past comes to life.
It's 1995, and Nikki Guy is the school president. Scott Guy is a house captain, playing league, rugby – his self-appointed nickname is "the hitman" – touch rugby, tennis, claybird shooting, hockey and skiing. Sister Anna, two years younger and in the fourth form (year 10), enjoys netball and acting.
Also a fourth former, Ewen Macdonald runs cross-country and plays rugby. His brother, Blair, now a Wellington detective, sits on the school council with Nikki.
"He just seemed normal at high school, he played in rugby teams and cricket. He was kind of in with the cool crowd, if you know what I mean," says a friend of Mr Guy and former friend of Macdonald's, who still lives in the community and does not want to be named.
"I would say he was outgoing, he wasn't shy or afraid to speak up. He just seemed like a decent sort, eh, like not a dickhead or anything."
He used to "pay people out" by teasing them and could be negative, but not in a bullying way, the friend says. Nor was he violent or aggressive. "You know rugby, how you have a punch-up every now and again – he would never pick a fight or get aggro during a game."
School friend Carrissa Hirst saw Macdonald every day at what was then called Feilding Agricultural High School. The pair were in the same classes for all their core subjects.
She had known Macdonald since Lytton Street School, when he asked her to "go around" with him and left love notes in her desk. "I remember Ewen as being relatively quiet in comparison to the other 10-year-old boys. He wasn't as boisterous, rowdy and mean as others that I can remember," she says.
At some point, a "baby romance" blossomed between them, which mainly consisted of her holding his jersey and watching him play sport at lunchtimes, Ms Hirst says.
"It also meant that on many occasions I would arrive at school and open my desk to find a surprise love letter from Ewen. I have no idea what the letters said but I've never forgotten how he used to put the letters into envelopes and then fill the envelopes with confetti and lollies. I've always thought that these were extremely thoughtful, sweet and unusual actions for a prepubescent boy."
The pair remained friends through high school, where they were in one of the top classes and had after-school jobs on the Feilding milk run.
"The whole time that I knew Ewen he was the same guy. He came out of his shell a bit more at high school, as we all did. But in general I perceived him as quite serious, considerate and friendly," she says.
Retired agriculture teacher Alan Ward remembers Macdonald as a model pupil who was quiet and attentive in class, always doing what was required of him. "He was not a standout person – pleasant enough but not overly academic, not overly nerdy."
And Lytton Street School principal Geoff Lovegrove says a staff member remembered Macdonald as a "nice little boy who just loved his labrador puppies".
"He was apparently mad about the outdoors and talked a lot about fishing and hunting – his dad's business. Otherwise he was generally a happy primary pupil who got along well with others, and just loved the outdoors."
But was there a side to Macdonald that no-one knew about, even back then? In the school magazine, there is a poem by Macdonald entitled, I am me, but no-one knows. It is awfully dark for a seemingly happy fourth former.
"Suddenly I was sick of explaining/what was the point?/No-one would believe me./They don't know what it's like/I'm trapped in a food chain/My mind thinks I should choose to stop eating. My stomach tries hard to keep the food down./But it has given up./It's taken to throwing up./I want to give up./My life is not worth living."
By 1996, when they were in the fifth form, Macdonald and his future wife, Anna Guy, were holding hands. That same year she landed one of the lead roles in the school play, swishing across the stage as the glamorous Tallulah in Bugsy Malone.
Macdonald was still playing rugby and cricket, and began working on the Guy farm in the school holidays. "The attraction was probably more Anna than the dairy farm, though," Bryan Guy admitted, in an interview at the time of Macdonald's arrest in April last year.
But soon after leaving school and starting fulltime work at the beginning of 1997, Macdonald became increasingly withdrawn and more interested in Anna and the farm than anything else, the friend says.
"He changed when he went on the farm, eh, he just never saw any of his mates. Pretty much when he picked up with Anna, he got rid of all his mates."
Four months before she married Macdonald in 2001, with Scott Guy as the best man, Anna, 20, won Miss Personality at the Miss Manawatu pageant in Palmerston North. In the Manawatu Standard, she was described as one of the "crowd-pleasing" acts.
But after that, her performances dried up. "[Ewen] was pretty controlling of Anna, he stopped her seeing any of her mates," the friend says. "That's what everyone thought, that he stopped her from doing things. She was all into her arts ... and that just stopped."
But Macdonald still seemed himself, he says. "When you were having a yarn to him he just seemed totally normal. The only thing that didn't seem normal was he became obsessed with farming."
He was good at it, too. Macdonald was a runner-up in the 2010 Farm Manager of the Year competition, and was described by farm consultant Simon Redmond during the trial as a "high achiever" who could have taken his talents anywhere.
He often went duck shooting with his dad, Kerry Macdonald, the director of Hunting & Fishing in Palmerston North.
Ewen Macdonald was also a Colyton School board of trustees member, and a Feilding Herald editorial during the week of his arrest said he was "a respected farmer, husband, father of four young children, and an active member of Colyton community".
"While rumours had spread through the town during the nine months since [Scott Guy's] death, it was commonly thought his killer would be someone outside our community – someone with a criminal background, a gangster, drug dealer or even a hitman," the editorial said.
"The news that police believe Ewen Macdonald is responsible for Scott's death has been met with disbelief and anguish. Both the Guy and Macdonald extended families are well respected and active members of our community."
But on the farm, all had not been perfect. When Scott Guy moved back with new wife Kylee in 2003, it was immediately clear the two men had their differences.
"I observed that Scott and Ewen had competition between each other," said Andrew Short, who went to school with both men and worked on the farm in 2000. "It seemed that one would get a tattoo and [the other] would get a tattoo, or one of the parties would get a new car and [the] other would get a new car."
The friend agrees. "I think it was more than just differences in business or on the farm. I don't think they really liked each other, from what I got from Scotty."
Macdonald would always try to one-up Scott, and pulled increasingly bizarre stunts to keep up with him. Sometimes, it was just funny – like when Macdonald bought a sunbed, so he could work on getting a tan in the farmhouse at home.
"Scotty was always brown, he always wore a singlet around and was really tanned," the friend says. "We joked around that he had got it because he wanted to be brown like Scotty."
With Scott back on the farm, Bryan Guy split the tasks, so Scott managed the cropping, drystock and beef operations and son-in-law Macdonald managed the dairy cows.
Their duties changed after a farm meeting in June 2008, when Macdonald complained that Mr Guy wasn't doing the same amount of hours. Mr Guy was included in the morning milking roster as a way of balancing things up.
But four months later, the old farmhouse where the Guys' dream home was to be built lay in ashes – razed by Macdonald's hand.
Police believed the fiery June meeting was the catalyst. Detective Laurie Howell put it squarely to Macdonald on the day of his arrest that he did it to "piss off" Scott Guy.
But throughout the four-hour interview – even when he knew police had him on the arson and vandalism charges – Macdonald never confessed any intense feelings of hatred towards either Scott or Kylee Guy.
The arson was just a bit of fun, he said. Putting an axe through every wall in their new home and plastering "f...... bitch slapper" and "f...... [w]hore" on the outside three months later was targeted at Scott and Kylee, yes, but there wasn't a great deal going through his head at the time. "I was just doing it," Macdonald told police.
"I still was holding a bit of a grudge. I was disappointed. It wasn't a fair partnership, just with the hours I had to work and I didn't get to spend as much time at home with the kids.
"Scott got to spend more time at home. To me, it just felt like I was working my arse off and it wasn't even."
To the suggestion that he had murdered his brother-in-law, he told Mr Howell: "I'm not that psycho."
In the months after Scott Guy was shot, the friend says Macdonald still acted the same. "He never went quiet or anything like that. I saw him just before he got arrested, and he was still cruisy and just seemed like a normal guy."
Kylee Guy's good friend, Joanne Moss, was called to give evidence at the trial, and is now looking after one of the labrador puppies from the litter on the Guy farm. Three puppies went missing at the same time as the murder, and have still not been found.
She doesn't have much time for the man who took an axe to her best friend's house.
"All I know is that he was a funny sort of guy to start with, really. He never used to speak much at all. Kylee never said anything bad about him, there was sort of a bit of conflict on the farm but that's like anywhere, you know. No family is perfect."
Farm workers said that Macdonald was difficult to get on with, and he used to skite about his poaching expeditions, she said. "They said he always hated anyone who started out new on the farm, like they had to prove themselves.
"He was a weird guy ... very controlling of Anna. He never drank alcohol ... maybe he thought if he did, he wouldn't be able to stay quiet."
Still, she never thought he would be capable of causing the family so much pain. "I always thought he was a bit oddball, but not as oddball as that."
Kylee and Scott had an amazing relationship, and son Hunter was the apple of Scott's eye, she said.
"It was an absolutely lovely relationship, he was such a wonderful husband and such a wonderful father. I've never seen someone who was such a good family man."
Detective Sergeant David Thompson of Palmerston North said they found nothing in Scott Guy's past to suggest he was anything other than a stand-up bloke.
"The only thing that was surfacing was the issues on the farm, specifically the issues between Scott and Ewen Macdonald."
It seems the darker side of Macdonald's psyche was not known to anyone other than his partner-in-crime Callum Boe before April 7 last year – the day that Macdonald was arrested for Mr Guy's murder.
During his closing address to the jury last week, Crown prosecutor Ben Vanderkolk said out loud what had become painfully clear to Macdonald's friends and family during his 14 months in custody: "No-one knows the mind of the accused, we don't know what his real outlets for frustration are and we don't know how he deals with it.
"Regrettably, no-one really knows him."

'Please give me a five-minute break, I need to rest': Moment Polish military prosecutor SHOT himself after news conference on probe into mystery air crash that killed country's president
- Mikolaj Przybyl had just defended military probe into leaks relating to plane crash that killed Poland's president
- He is in stable condition with injuries to his face
A Polish prosecutor shot himself today in dramatic footage caught on film in his office after cutting short a news conference.
Moments earlier, he had defended a military investigation into leaks related to a plane crash that killed Poland's president two years ago.
At the start of the conference at his office in Poznan, Colonel Mikolaj Przybyl said: 'During
my entire service as a civilian and later military prosecutor, I have never
brought shame to the Republic of Poland and I
will protect the honour of an officer of the Polish armed forces and
'Thank you, please give me a five-minute break, I need to rest,' Przybyl said, as the reporters then leave the room.

He defended a military investigation into leaks related to a plane crash that killed Poland's president two years ago
With the camera still rolling, he walks across the floor and, just out of shot, a pistol can be heard being reloaded and then a gunshot sounded.
As he slumps to the ground, only his feet are in the frame.
He was immediately taken to hospital after reporters found him lying in a pool of blood.
Hospital director Leslaw Lenartowicz said Przybyl is in stable condition, conscious, and his life is not in danger. He added that Przybyl had suffered injuries to his face.
Przybyl is a deputy head of the prosecutor's office and the head of a local department investigating organised crime in the army.
He then asked the reporters to leave as he 'needs a rest'

After shooting himself, his body slumped to the floor, with just his shoe visible in the frame (arrowed)
He had asked the reporters to leave his office after he criticised media leaks from the continuing probe into the plane crash in Russia on April 10, 2010, that killed then-president Lech Kaczynski and 95 others, mostly senior Polish officials.
During his brief news conference,
Przybyl said the military prosecutor's office had the right to seek
phone records of journalists covering the investigation of the
He read a statement to reporters in which
he objected to plans by Prosecutor General Andrzej Seremet to put
military prosecutors under civilian authority.
Seremet said that such a
decision has not been made yet.
Przybyl also said that military
prosecutors were proving themselves competent in the many probes that
they have opened into organised crime cases inside the army.
Przybyl was taken to hospital, where he is in a stable condition with injuries to his face
The death toll from the plane crash included the country's president and wife, its central bank head and the country's military chief along with other senior government and military figures
Dead: Polish President Lech Kaczynski and wife Maria were among those who perished in the crash
The probes primarily concern suspicions of corruption in buying equipment for Poland's troops on missions in Afghanistan and, earlier, in Iraq.
Przybyl denied media suggestions that the military prosecutors broke the law while investigating the crash.
The media have
alleged that the prosecutors had sought billing lists and text message
content of mobile phones of some reporters to determine the source of
leaks to the media.
Several news outlets showed footage of Przybyl's body behind his desk before an ambulance took him to a hospital.
A spokesman for the military prosecutor's office was not available for comment.
'According to the information available, the prosecutor is alive, he is being treated in the hospital and the site is being investigated by the prosecutors and military police,' said spokesman of Poznan military prosecutors office Slawomir Schewe.
Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski said in a statement he was 'concerned' about the suicide attempt and asked the head of the national security bureau to monitor the situation.
Some lawmakers are calling for a special parliamentary probe into the case.
The wreckage of the Polish president's plane lies in woodland near Smolensk airport in Russia
Russia fully blamed Poland for the deadly plane crash which killed the Polish president.
Russian officials investigating the plane crash that killed Lech Kaczynski said the crew was pressured to land in bad weather by an air force commander who had been drinking.
Kaczynski and 95 others, including his wife, died in April 2010 when their plane crashed while trying to land in Smolensk, Russia. There were no survivors.
Officials of the Interstate Aviation Committee, which investigates crashes in much of the former Soviet Union, said that the pilots were pressured to land by Poland's air force commander, General Andrzej Blasik, who was in the cockpit.
They said he had a blood-alcohol level of about 0.06 percent, enough to impair reasoning.
Blasik's presence in the cockpit 'had a psychological influence on the commander's decision to take an unjustified risk by continuing the descent with the predominant goal of landing against the odds,' the committee chairwoman Tatiana Anodina told a news conference last January.
The report found no fault with Russian air traffic controllers.
Polish officials have already complained that previous
drafts of Russia's report should have questioned whether controllers
should have allowed the plane to land in poor visibility.
In December 2010, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk accused the Russian investigators of negligence and mistakes.
and his delegation were on their way to attend a ceremony commemorating
the victims of the 1940 Katyn massacre, in which 20,000 Polish officers
and other prisoners of war were killed by the Soviet secret police.
The symbolic importance of Kaczynski's planned visit apparently
increased the pressure to land the aircraft despite the poor conditions.
But the head of the committee's technical commission, Alexei Morozov, said there was no 'concrete command' from Kaczynski to land.
The blood-alcohol content found in Blasik was lower than what is generally considered outright intoxication.
But the professional pilots and physicians group says 'the number of serious errors committed by pilots dramatically increases at or above concentrations of 0.04 percent,' lower than Blasik's level.

Cliff Hillegass, the Harried Student's Star in Stripes, Celebrates 40 Years of Making Long Stories Short
When Clifton Hillegass published his first study guide 40 years ago, he could hardly have foreseen the extent to which students would come to depend on his yellow-and-black striped booklets. By now hundreds of millions of them have found their way to students of every stripe, though many in academe, like Brigham Young University bookstore manager Linda Brummett, still disapprove: "You might as well read a cereal box."
What began with Hillegass's shipping summaries of Shakespeare's plays from the basement of his modest Lincoln, Neb., home—inspired by a friend who sold similar notes in Canada—is now a 60-employee business in an art-filled office building in Lincoln, offering a list of more than 220 literary titles. And Cliff himself, now 80 and suffering from Parkinson's disease, still serves as chairman of the board, though he no longer runs the daily operations. "He always said the employees make the company, and the notes belong to them," says wife Mary. Paraphrasing her husband, of course.

'We are touched by this evil': Outpouring of grief at emotional memorial service for mother and 8-year-old brother of kidnapping victim Hannah Anderson
Calling their deaths 'an abomination,' a priest memorialized Hanna Anderson's mother and young brother killed by a family friend who also abducted the 16-year-old.
The service Saturday for Christina Anderson and 8-year-old Ethan Anderson at the Guardian Angels Roman Catholic Church in Santee was open to the public.
The Los Angeles Times reported that Rev. Kevin Casey told the memorial gathering that the community was 'touched by this evil and we can never be the same again.'
Together again: Hannah Anderson touches a family picture as she attends a memorial service for her mother Christina Anderson, 44, and her 8-year-brother Ethan last Saturday
Saying goodbye: Hannah wept while sharing a private moment with the image of her mother and brother
Closure: Anderson (center) arrives at the church surrounded by friends and family
The mother and son were found slain at the home of James Lee DiMaggio, who set it ablaze earlier this month.
DiMaggio was killed by FBI agents August 10 in the Idaho wilderness, ending a 6-day search that spanned much of the western United States and parts of Canada and Mexico.
Guardian Angel Roman Catholic Church in Santee made arrangements to accommodate more than 1,000 mourners. According to those present at the service, every pew inside the church was full.

The family then took their places in the first row and joined in a rendition of Amazing Grace as the memorial got under way at 11am local time.
Ritual: The program for the memorial service included a Biblical reading of Letter to the Romans, the singing of hymns, a eulogy and prayers

are here to pray for Tina and remember her and for Ethan. Ethan doesn't
need prayers. He is already an angel in heaven. And that is our great
belief,' Father Kevin Casey said at the opening of the service, CNN reported.
'We are touched by this evil and we can never be the same again,' the cleric told the assembled congregants.
then continued, saying, 'All of us would like to take away the awful
pain that was inflicted on Hannah and on the whole family. We ask God
for resurrection and light in this darkness and death.'
Christine Anderson's uncle, David Braun, delivered a eulogy during the service, describing 8-year-old Ethan as a handsome boy 'full of spirit' who loved football, according to NBC San Diego.
'You just wanted to be his buddy,' Braun said.
Tragic: Christina Anderson, left, and 8-year-old Ethan Anderson, right, were murdered earlier this month
Family in mourning: Hannah Anderson, left, pictured with her father Brett Anderson in San Diego, Calif., earlier this week
Referring to Christina Anderson by her family nickname, 'Tiny Tina,' Mr Braun said she was devoted to her children, 'full of life and always ready to help out.'
'We will miss them forever,' he added.
'This was a national tragedy. It has been very painful. It has been un-ending pain and sorrow,' Braun went on. 'I can say that it has been and still is the very worst tragedy to befall our entire heritage as a family.'
As part of his eulogy, Braun thanked family, friends, the public, the FBI, as well as the media and the Amber Alert system for helping in the rescue of his slain niece's daughter.
Authorities have declined to discuss a possible motive in the deaths and haven't addressed other details of the case, including how Hannah was treated by DiMaggio during the ordeal.
Investigators have said DiMaggio set fire to his home using a timer, giving him a 20-hour jump on law enforcement.
Place of worship: Guardian Angel Roman Catholic Church in Santee has made arrangements to accommodate more than 1,000 mourners
DiMaggio's family has requested paternity tests to determine if the suspect fathered the children.
Hannah's father, Brett Anderson, gave his DNA to investigators to confirm Ethan's identity.
DiMaggio named Hannah's grandmother, Bernice Anderson, as the sole beneficiary of his employer-issued life insurance policy, making her eligible to receive $112,000.

During an emotional interview on the Today Show this week, Hannah offered more details of her relationship with DiMaggio, whom she called 'Uncle Joe.'
The teen tearfully defended herself over letters and texts she had sent to her kidnapper, saying that the 13 messages the two exchanged on the day of her abduction were regarding arrangements to pick her up from cheer camp.

Authorities have also said that letters from Anderson were found at the home. Hannah said that they were written about a year ago when she was having trouble getting along with her mother and she sought advice from DiMaggio.
The girl broke down in tears when talking about her slain brother and mother.
'He had a really big heart,' Anderson said of Ethan, adding that her mother was 'strong-hearted and very tough.'

'I love a gooey potato dish!' Model mother Molly Sims shares her favorite recipes for the holiday season
Model and actress-turned-domestic goddess Molly Sims has revealed what she will be rustling up in the kitchen for friends and family this holiday season.
The blonde beauty, 40, teamed up with Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi winery near her home in Los Angeles, California, to devise an easy-to-make menu plan for fans to follow. Catering to all hungry guests, each of the dishes are vegetarian-friendly.
'No southern girl can enjoy the holidays without a gooey potato dish,' the Kentucky native said, plumping for a hearty sweet potato coconut and pecan casserole for main course.
Model-turned-domestic goddess: Molly Sims has revealed what she will be rustling up for her family in the kitchen this holiday season from potato casserole to pumpkin brownies
As an accompanying side dish or starter Ms Sims suggests a lighter honey-roasted carrot and quinoa salad.
And on the dessert front this year, she will be baking up batches of brownies instead of pie.
'Forget pumpkin pie this year!' she exclaimed.
'I recently tried a fantastic recipe for pumpkin spice brownies that highlight two of my favorite holiday flavors - chocolate and pumpkin.'
Seasonal favorite: To wash it all down Ms Sims suggests mulled wine
Ms Sims, who has a one-and-a-half-year-old boy named Brooks with her producer husband Scott Stuber, says she likes to host regular dinner parties at home.
She took up cooking classes after getting married in the fall of 2011 to learn 'how to cook for two' and now it appears she's quite the pro.
'Pick crowd-pleasing toppings for your mashed potato like fresh chives, shredded cheese and crumbled bacon'
'I grew up in the south, so entertaining and cooking for family and friends is in my blood,' she said on releasing her new Thanksgiving-inspired menu plan.
When catering for large numbers Ms Sims says one her favorite things to do is create a' mini mashed potato bar.'
'Pick crowd-pleasing toppings like
fresh chives, shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, fried onions, sour cream,
and steamed broccoli,' the mother-of-one advises.
To wash everything down she likes to brew a big pan of mulled wine.
Happy family: Ms Sims has a son named Brooks with her producer husband Scott Stuber
'There is no better holiday scent than a warm, spicy batch filling up the room!'
'I use an approachable red wine like Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Pinot Noir that is 'multi-purpose' and can also be poured with dinner.'
The five-times Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model who recently starred in the Carrie Diaries also offers culinary tips via her blog Mollysims.com.
In time for Thanksgiving she posted up recipes for a 'Hot Cranberry Salad' and 'Healthy Pumpkin Pie'. Her Instagram account also shows photos of her slaving away at the stove.
'So excited to eat this turkey meatloaf I made! Reminds me of my mama's cooking,' she recently told her 12,000-plus followers as she posed alongside one of her creations.
