Posted by Donna Lazorik, RN, MS. Donna is the Immunization Coordinator in the Division of Epidemiology and Immunization at the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
As a parent, you do everything you can to protect your children. Buckle them up in the car. Watch them closely when they're in the water. Teach them to look both ways when they cross the street. Warn them not to talk to strangers.
How about also making sure they get a flu vaccine? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu vaccine every year. That includes children from tiny to teen.
Getting a flu vaccine is the best way to prevent the flu. For children younger than 5 years of age and those with certain chronic health conditions, like asthma and diabetes, getting a flu vaccine is especially important to avoid serious flu complications like pneumonia, which can lead to hospitalization and even death. About 20,000 children younger than 5 years old are hospitalized each year from flu complications. The flu can also make some health conditions worse.
There are two kinds of flu vaccine available for children: the regular flu shot and a nasal spray flu vaccine, which is for healthy children 2 years of age and older. Talk to your child's doctor if you have questions about which type of vaccine your child should receive.
Flu vaccines cannot give you the flu because they are made from killed or weakened influenza viruses. Flu vaccines have an excellent safety record. Hundreds of millions of Americans have safely received flu vaccines and most people generally do not experience any side effects after being vaccinated. When side effects do occur, they are generally mild and include redness and soreness at the injection site for the flu shot, and occasionally sore throat, runny nose and rarely fever after the nasal spray vaccine. While these symptoms can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, they are mild and resolve quickly when compared to a bad case of the flu.
Call your health care provider to schedule an appointment to get vaccinated or search for a public flu clinic online at http://www.mylocalclinic.com. For more information visit www.mass.gov/flu.

How Florida's "felon" voter-purge was itself felonious
In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

Birth of a Guyanese swashbuckler
Some of the most exciting strokes ever played came from the bat of Rohan Kanhai, who was born today. After having to wait until his 24th Test innings for his maiden hundred, he turned it into a big one, 256 in Calcutta in 1958-59. He and Garry Sobers made their last Test tons in the same innings, at Lord's in 1973, when Kanhai captained West Indies to a crushing win that clinched the series. He made 55 in his first one-day international and the same score in his last, at the age of 39, when his support to Clive Lloyd helped to win the inaugural World Cup final, at Lord's in 1975.
No Christmas spirit from Australian umpire Darrell Hair, who called Muttiah Muralitharan for throwing. Playing for Sri Lanka in Melbourne, Murali was called seven times by Hair before he switched to the other end, where New Zealander Steve Dunne let him bowl unhindered. Few would have bet on Murali lasting much longer in Test cricket, but he went on to become the all-time top wicket-taker, overcoming further controversy when he was no-balled by another Australian umpire, Ross Emerson, in 1998-99.
The Test debut of Steve Waugh. He featured in a record number of Tests, took over 100 catches, averaged over 51, played in over 100 Tests with his twin brother Mark, and added to the captaincy achievements of Allan Border and Mark Taylor by leading Australia to a world record of 16 consecutive Test wins. Adam Gilchrist was in charge for one of those 16, but let's not quibble. Waugh was one of the greatest, mentally toughest, players in the game.
Uneventful one-day debuts for Sanath Jayasuriya and Mark Taylor in the Benson & Hedges World Series match in Brisbane. Taylor opened for Australia and scored 11. Jayasuriya batted at No. 5 for Sri Lanka and was caught off his fifth ball for 3. The fielder who caught him, Greg Campbell, Ricky Ponting's uncle, also made his debut in the game, and didn't contribute much else apart from the catch. Australia won by 30 runs.
Batting with what the Wisden Almanack described as "such delightful ease", Alan Kippax made 260 not out and shared the only triple-century last-wicket stand (in fact the only one of 250 or more) in first-class cricket. With last man Hal Hooker, who scored 62, he put on 307 for New South Wales against Victoria in Melbourne.
Using his famously enormous hands to impart some wicked spin to the ball, big Tom Goddard needed only three balls to dismiss the talented and prolific Dudley Nourse, Norman Gordon (out to the first ball he faced in Test cricket) and wicketkeeper Billy Wade in the first Test in South Africa. It was the only Test hat-trick by an England bowler between 1929 and 1957.
The bowler with an action described as a "frog in a blender" became South Africa's youngest Test cricketer. When he made his debut against England in Port Elizabeth, Paul Adams was 18 years 340 days old. He took four wickets in 50 economical overs, and another four in the next Test helped Allan Donald and Shaun Pollock win the series for South Africa. But once batsmen got over the shock of his action they realised there was little to fear and he quietly slid out of the reckoning.
When the great Wilfred Rhodes took his 100th Test wicket, against South Africa in Johannesburg, he became the first England player to do the double of 100 wickets and 1000 runs. His Test career, the longest of all time, spanned five decades, from 1899 to 1929-30.
Only 5'6", Barry Wood, born today, was a determined and gutsy opening batsman. But in his 12 Tests spread over seven seasons, he never played more than three in a row. He made 90 on debut against Australia in 1972, but struggled in India and Pakistan in 1972-73, and against New Zealand in 1974-75. He figured in the Ashes in 1975 and at Lord's in 1976, and made a final outing against Pakistan in 1978.
One of Australia's earliest Test captains was born. Henry James Herbert Scott, better known as "Tup", couldn't stop England winning all three matches in 1886 (the Wisden Almanack referred to his lack of "authority and experience") - but he'd had a better time at The Oval two years earlier, scoring his only Test ton while partnering Billy Murdoch in the first double-century stand in international cricket.
An Australian wicketkeeper is born. The fact that Matthew Wade played any international cricket was a credit to his mental toughness: when only 16, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer, and required two cycles of chemotherapy to defeat the illness. He made headlines when he helped Victoria to the Sheffield Shield title in 2010 and was picked for the T20s against South Africa in 2011. His big break arrived when Brad Haddin was forced to miss the 2012 Test series in the West Indies due to personal reasons and Wade grabbed the chance with a 106 in the third Test. An ankle injury cost him his Test spot in India a year later and a run of poor form meant he was axed from the one-day side too.

CHICAGO -- Everyone agrees: Chicago is a major-league eating town. From its cliche deep dish pizzas to its upscale gourmet restaurants such as North Pond and Spring, there is something for everyone along Lake Michigan. But nothing's more thrilling than finding an out-of-the-way, unpretentious gem with good prices and good food.
To wit: The City Cafe at 3234 N. Pulaski, just west of Interstate 94 between W. Addison St. and W. Belmont Av. We were heading over to visit our nephew's new house and intentionally got lost to wander the Sunday morning, rainy streets of my hometown.
Just as our hunger and edginess began to build, we spotted the City Cafe in a decorative corner building. My daughter ordered the huevos ranchero. My wife picked a fluffy spinach omelette, My son, complaining about being rushed, jumped on a huge breakfast burrito. I ordered the 2-2-2 special, which included two eggs, two slices of French toast and two slices of bacon so crisp I'd swear an iron was involved.
My breakfast came with a homemade custard sauce made with sugar and milk that rendered the maple syrup unnecessary. Our waitress joked that she couldn't tell us how they made it. The whole deal cost $5.50 and the massive breakfast for four came in at a reasonable $36.
Owner and chef VIcente Duran (left, with assistant chef Pedeo Coss in the hat) said the 2-year-old family business justed expanded its hours at the request of the neaby Kindred Hosptial staffers who frequent the place. Perfect way to start the day.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to devices which dispense small particulate materials, such as chemicals, fertilizers, seeds, insecticides, weed killers, herbicides, pellets over areas to be covered.
More particularly, the invention comprises a portable spreader that will enable a person to apply a substance, such as snow/ice melt pellets, calcium chloride or similar chemicals, much more efficiently.
2. Description of the Prior Art
When a person finds it necessary to spread various types of granular materials about an environment, different kinds of dispensing devices are available for this purpose. Dispensing devices are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,096,984, issued to Marvin L. Garrison on Jul. 9, 1963, U.S. Pat. No. 3,157,402, issued to William D. Love, Jr., on Nov. 17, 1964, U.S. Pat. No. 3,993,225, issued to Mario Manni on Nov. 23, 1976 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,998,674, issued to Allesandro Torra on Mar. 12, 1991.
In each one of these prior art inventions, the dispensing devices are either manually operated or contain top feeding chambers that have to be filled with the granular materials. This can cause a messy and dangerous situation, if the granular materials are accidentally spilled out of the feeding chambers to fall upon the ground or on the user.
None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed.
The present invention is a portable spreader of small particulate materials, such as snow/ice melt pellets, calcium chloride or similar chemicals. The portable spreader contains a battery operated motor, impeller and stirring rod built into a cover of a typical standard wide mouth container, so that when inverted and turned on will evenly distribute the small particulate materials.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to provide a portable spreader that will overcome the shortcomings of the prior art devices.
It is another object of the invention to provide a portable spreader that is a motorized hand held unit which will enable a person to spread small particulate materials much more efficiently about an environment.
An additional object of the invention is to provide a portable spreader that can be used by school and industrial building maintenance personnel to greatly reduce their yearly salting budgets.
A further object of the invention is to provide a portable spreader that is simple and easy to use.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a portable spreader that is economical to manufacture.
It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes.
These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
Various other objects, features, and attendant advantages of the present invention will become more fully appreciated as the same becomes better understood when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters designate the same or similar parts throughout the several views, and wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an upper portion of a container with the present invention installed thereto.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the drive assembly of the present invention.
Turning now descriptively to the drawings, in which similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views, FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate the present invention being a portable spreader 10 of small particulate materials 12, comprising a container 14 having a wide mouth neck 16. Container 14 holds small particulate materials 12 therein. A cap 18 has a top opening 20. Cap 18 engages with wide mouth neck 16 of container 14. An electronic device 22 is built onto cap 18 over top opening 20, for distributing small particulate materials 12 away from container 14, when container 14 held in a hand of a person is inverted.
Automatically electronic device 22 includes a distribution unit 24 mounted over top opening 20 of cap 18. A control casing 26 is affixed to distribution unit 24. An electric drive assembly 28 urges small particulate materials 12 in distribution unit 24 to exit therefrom, when inverted and drive assembly 28 is turned on.
Distribution unit 24 is a cylindrical shaped housing 30, having a side outlet port 32 therein, so that small particulate materials 12 can exit through side outlet port 32. Control casing 26 is a box-shaped enclosure 34, which acts as a protective covering for drive assembly 28 therein.
Drive assembly 28 consists of an electric motor 36 in control casing 26. Electric motor 36 has a drive shaft 38 extending into distribution unit 24. At least one battery 40 is in control casing 26. Battery 40 is electrically connected to electric motor 36. An on-off switch 42 is on control casing 26 and is electrically connected between the electric motor 36 and battery 40. An impeller 44 is in distribution unit 24. Impeller 44 has a plurality of radially extending vanes 46 and a driven shaft 48 coupled at 50 to drive shaft 38 of the electric motor 36.
Control casing 26 includes a battery hatch cover 52. When battery hatch cover 52 is opened, a person can gain access to battery 40 for replacement when needed. Drive assembly 28 further contains a stirring rod 54, having a hook end 56. Stirring rod 54 is coupled at 58 to drive shaft 48 of impeller 44. Hook end 56 extends into wide mouth neck 16 of container 14. Stirring rod 54, with hook end 56, will rotate to prevent small particulate materials 12 within container 14 from sticking together.
To use portable spreader 10, a person simply replaces a standard cap on the container 14 with cap 18 of the present invention. Container 14 is grasped and inverted, so that particulate materials 12 will fall into distribution unit 24. On-off switch 42 is then turned on, to cause impeller 44 to rotate and eject particulate materials 12 through the side outlet port 32. Stirring rod 54 will rotate simultaneously, to mix small particulate materials 12 in wide mouth neck 16 of container 14.
It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.

I grew up on Myrtle Avenue as a neighbor to the Gravitt family. I know not only Marc's parents, but also knew his grandparents, so I've known the family for over 60 years. And I must admit, that I was planning on voting for Marc from the start of his campaign. However, at last week's forum, Marc Gravitt proved to me that he is the best candidate for the job.
It was evident that Marc has not only attended council meetings for several years, but had also done his homework. He was the only candidate that proved he had gone through the budget line item by line item. When the candidates were asked to be specific about what cuts in the budget they would propose, the others simply gave the usual rhetoric, "well we need to stop wasteful spending." Marc Gravitt hit it head on with actual figures.
When asked the hard questions, about the court clerk's office, the city manager and city attorney, Marc Gravitt again proved he was the person for the job by answering the questions with direct answers. While other candidates stated, "they did not have an opinion or they didn't care to share opinion."
Folks, if you either don't have an opinion or are too afraid to share it with your constituents, you don't deserve our vote. If you haven't been attending council meeting to learn what is going on in our city, you don't deserve our vote. If you've not taken the time to look at the city budget and come to your own decisions, you don't deserve our vote.
Marc Gravitt has done all of these things. He's proven he's not afraid to answer the tough questions. He's been an advocate for East Ridge for years and has shown the type of leadership we need in East Ridge. Please vote for Marc Gravitt for councilman for the city of East Ridge-he deserves our vote.
Myra J. Rosser
* * *
As a longtime resident of East Ridge and a retired educator from East Ridge High School, I have done many things to help our city. Next week we have the opportunity to make a difference in East Ridge. We voted to elect Jim Bethune in the last election so we owe it to him and our self to elect two people that can work in a progressive manner to move East Ridge forward beyond the daily pettiness we often read in the newspaper.
Of the candidates running I am asking you to vote for Marc Gravitt and Denny Manning. Mr. Gravitt has the qualities of leadership this city needs. He is educated and successful in business and involved in our community affairs.
Mr. Manning probably has the largest heart of any individual that has served on the East Ridge City Council. He has a record of voting against wasteful spending and has never voted to raise property taxes. I am asking family, friends and neighbors to join me in my support for these gentlemen and vote Gravitt and Manning for East Ridge Council next week.
Doug Rosser
To the voters of East Ridge,
I would like to ask for your support of Marc Gravitt and Denny Manning for the two available city council seats.
I am concerned about the future of our city. As we look to the future in an ever evolving world, it is important that our leadership reflects our values and has a clear understanding of what it takes to truly build community and lead a city. It takes business knowledge and experience to understand how to help businesses succeed and to provide a core for community stability and growth. It takes strong values and a commitment to making the right decisions for the right reasons to help build a strong community.
We have all seen the tattoo parlors, cash advance operations and fireworks vendors move in to storefronts once occupied by quality retail stores, banks and professional offices. We need a change in course to reverse the trends.
Marc Gravitt is businessman with deep family roots in East Ridge. He is a veteran of our military with the strength and discipline to lead. He represents the leadership our city needs for the future.
I would appreciate your support for Marc Gravitt and Denny Manning on Nov. 6.
Ken Meyer
Former State Representative
East Ridge
* * *
Next week's election in East Ridge is a hard one for me. I happen to know and am friends with several of the candidates running for the two open council seats. Regardless, of who I support, I run the risk of losing friendships over politics.
Several months back, Mr. Marc Gravitt and Councilman Denny Manning both ask for my support for this election. I deem both very qualified for the position and respect them highly and agreed to support them both.
Later in the qualifying, Ms. Mimi Lowrey and Ms. Ann Pruett decided to throw their hat in the ring. Several weeks back Ms. Lowrey ask me for support. I was honest and told her my situation. Ms. Pruett has never asked anything of me.
So here's the deal folks. I am supporting Mr. Gravitt and Mr. Manning this election. If you can't find it in your heart to support one of these gentlemen, then please, throw your support behind Ms. Lowrey.
Mimi is well versed in the operations of the city, she has business experience, extensive knowledge in budgets and is willing to help her neighbors in anyway she possibly can. She will definitely work hard for the city and its citizens.

Many people say that depression is a side effect or complication of diabetes. Without discounting the association of the psychological condition with the physical one, I'm not convinced that our high and/or unstable glucose levels are directly responsible for that change in our mental state.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Regions 9 and 10 have announced a regional competition through the West Coast Collaborative, for more than $5 million to deploy verified or certified clean diesel technologies. The EPA is encouraging all qualified applicants to submit proposals for funding now.
It's part of an initiative to significantly reduce diesel emissions in Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and the U.S. Pacific Islands.
"We have to accelerate air quality improvements," said Deborah Jordan, Air Division director for the U.S. EPA's Pacific Southwest region. "One of the most cost-effective ways to do that is by modernizing our legacy diesel fleet. Through this initiative, EPA hopes to deploy the latest and cleanest technologies to reduce emissions from diesel engines, which will result in significant benefits to public health."
Through the National Clean Diesel Campaign, the EPA is awarding $49.2 million in grants nationwide, to assist its eligible partners in building diesel emissions reduction programs across the country.
Diesels are the economic workhorses of the nation, and over the past decade, the EPA has set stringent new particulate and nitrogen oxide standards for most types of new engines. These regulations will annually prevent more than 20,000 premature deaths and yield more than $150 billion in public health benefits when fully implemented. This funding is aimed at reducing emissions from the existing fleet of 11 million diesel engines that predate these standards. Addressing the existing fleet is important because diesels remain in use for decades.
State, local, regional and tribal agencies or port authorities with jurisdiction over transportation or air quality can apply for the grants. Certain additional organizations are also eligible to apply, see the request for proposal for more details on applicant eligibility.
The grants target school and transit buses, medium and heavy-duty trucks, marine engines, locomotives, and non-road engines, such as those used in construction or agriculture. Grant recipients can use a variety of cost effective emissions reduction strategies, such as EPA-verified retrofit and idle-reduction technologies, EPA-certified engine upgrades, vehicle or equipment replacements, cleaner fuels, and creation of innovative clean diesel financing programs.
The closing date and time for submission of proposals is Tuesday, July 1, at 5 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time. EPA Regions 9 and 10 anticipate awarding six to nine assistance agreements from this announcement, with awards ranging from $500,000 to $1 million.
The full request for proposal, and additional information is available at: http://www.epa.gov/region10/cleandiesel.html. Additional information on the West Coast Collaborative, including a fact sheet on the funding program, is available at http://www.westcoastcollaborative.org.

Judge denies Apple motion for preliminary injunction against Amazon AppstoreA federal judge has rejected Apple's request for a preliminary injunction that would have blocked Amazon from using the "App Store" name.
U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton said in a court document that Apple had not established "a likelihood of confusion" with Amazon's Appstore for Android, though she did partially side with Apple in noting that the "App Store" term is not purely generic, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
Also on Wednesday, Hamilton set a trial date of October 2012 for the case. She had previously warned Apple that its lack of evidence of actual customer confusion was a "stumbling block" to its efforts to prevent Amazon from using the mark.
Apple spokeswoman Kristin Huguet responded to the decision by reiterating the company's position that Amazon's application store will "confuse and mislead customers."
Prior to the launch of Amazon's store, Apple sued the online retailer in March for "improperly using" the App Store trademark with the online retailer's software developer program. Days later, Amazon went ahead and launched its "Appstore for Android" in spite of the suit.
Subsequent filings from Apple have described Amazon's digital storefront as "inferior" and a "security threat" because it provided software for rooted Android phones, which are more vulnerable to security breaches.
Apple's "App Store" trademark has been hotly contested, with long-time rival Microsoft remaining one of its most vocal opponents. Earlier this year, the Redmond, Wash., software giant filed an objection to Apple's trademark filing on the grounds that "app" and "store" are generic terms. Apple countered by noting that Microsoft should know a thing or two about trademark terms since it had faced a "decades-long genericness challenge" to the Windows trademark.

IIRC, they're the same.
Kinda like the K701 and K702, they just have different paint jobs. If you're talking about the MKII, the "2" version will come with a detachable cable and another set of earpads.
If I'm wrong, I doubt the difference will be drastic.post #3 of 66/26/11 at 7:32pm

They're identical, and I've directly compared them. I'd get the 271 since you'll save a chunk of cash and get the detachable cord, but I do like the 272 color scheme better. Only reason I got the 272 instead of the 271 was that I found them for sub $150 new.post #4 of 66/27/11 at 2:06am

one has velor type earpads the other has leather type earpads, as mentioned k271 mkii has detachable cable but also has some sort of annoying (or not) switch that turns them off when removed. K240 sounds similar but there are differences no?post #6 of 67/5/11 at 2:03am

the k271 is basically a closed version of the k240MKII and the 240 MKII is the same as the k240 studios. the MKII just comes in AKG's known ''silver'' color to look like their vintage models and comes with extra cable and extra velour ear pads.

Civil partnership for senior Tory
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Blimey O'Reilly, a Tory supporting civil partnerships – what a topsy-turvy world we're living inbtw – doesn't he look old for 50!
Incidentally, homosexuality is illegal in Oman. Perhaps they might like to consider such things when making holiday choices – and political ones.
On the contrary, Alan Duncan is a very good-looking man..I think this is wonderful news and Alan James make a handsome couple.Anyone who watched the Second Reading of the Civil Partnerships Act in the House of Commons in NOvember 2004 will remember the stunning advocacy of the Bill by Alan and his colleague Charles Hendry.They rendered the arguments of the Bill's opponents, mostly Tory Roman Catholics like Edward Leigh and Widdecombe, to be without foundation and thinly disguised prejudice reflecting the bigotry of the current Pope.All gay men and women in the UK owe a deep debt of gratitude to Alan Duncan.I wish him and James Dunseath every happiness in their life together.
Gendy, didn't say he was ugly, just that he looked like he'd not so much had a hard life, but just quite a long one.Also, I was taking the piss about the topsy-turvy world. I'm well aware of the changes in relation to diversity and equality (that the gay community has long cried out for) within the Conservative Party, now starting to take effect.No doubt though the usual storm will start to take effect about events of a generation ago, and how and why we should not move on or forget.Alan Duncan's rise within the Conservative Party does seem to bear evidence to the fact that there have been at least some changes.
funny a tory, taking advantage of a labour policy. That his own party would never have brought in
You forget that it is now agreed by all the political parties (except Tebbit) that 6% of the adult population of the UK is gay/lesbian.That is around 2.4 million voters.The Conservative party is as much aware of that fact as is Labour or the LibDems.
Trust me Gendy, you'll not win this argument by quoting hard facts – we've been here many times before (unfortunately)

A Cuban Thanksgiving Story
Most Americans don't realize the great sacrifices that the Cuban people have made to come to freedom in the United States. In that way, they are a lot like the Pilgrims who came over to America on a leaky ship risking their lives to fulfill a God-given dream. Every year, I ask my students to complete an "Origins Project," which consists of several essays, a time-line and several maps describing the story of their lives and their ancestors. In my first year of teaching in a school district in Florida with a diverse population, I found it interesting to hear the stories of my immigrant students, especially those who came from Cuba.
The most interesting story was written sometime in the 2002/2003 school year by Russay Hernandez, who told me that he wanted to write a book about his life, but doubted that he was capable of doing it. I encouraged him to start with this essay. It has been edited heavily, but I tried to keep the same language as much as possible. A few years later, I met Russay after he graduated while he was working in a home improvement store. I told him that I still had his essay and that I would get it to him somehow. I came across this again today as I was looking for an old lesson plan. I am sorry that I waited ten years to publish this, but here it is.
My Life
by Russay Hernandez
As an escaped Cuban refugee, life has not been easy for me or my family, as you might imagine. My name is Russay Hernandez, I come from an island only 90 miles away from the Florida Keys: Cuba. I was born in March 18, 1985 and lived in Cuba for nine years. During those years, I didn't know about the problems that were going on around me. As far as I remember, I was a normal kid, at least that's what I thought. In reality, my life was miserable. Cuba, being a communist country, was very poor, and life was not easy for anybody. In fact, many people thought we were rich, because my father was a painter and he sold his paintings for a few dollars. In Cuba, one dollar is 27 Cuban pesos.
Cuba is a corrupt country. There, the police were permitted to beat you, take your house, put you in jail for no reason at all. My father didn't like the way things were, so in March of 1993, my family decided that we had to leave the country in order to obtain a better life. My father and some of his friends decided to go and buy a boat so that we might escape from the country. The only problem was that the person from whom we bought the boat was an undercover agent. My father went to prison and was held captive for six months.
Sometime later after my father got out of prison, we still didn't quit trying to leave. We were determined to keep going at any cost. Around November of the same year, several families got together to make an attempt to leave. We had everything set up, except that it wasn't a boat this time, it was a raft. My father was not fond of rafts. He just didn't like them, but it was our only chance to do this. The night came and we were ready to break sail. We started to leave, but like some unseen force, the sea got nasty. The weather changed so fast that we couldn't keep up with it. The storm hit us like a wall and all of a sudden the sail broke. The raft started to go in circles and all of a sudden my dad spotted something in the distance: "Reefs!" My dad saw the reefs and right then I could read his mind, "We're going to die and there is nothing that we can do." But then the raft started to turn sideways and we made it back to the main land. Thank God!
By July 1994, we were making a better living in the country. My family was happy because my mother became a Christian and left worshiping the devil behind her. (In Cuba, an official religion is Santeria: a kind of primitive belief in demons and magic.) My family was going to church and that at least was something that the government gave us some freedom to do. Some time passed. We received news that would change our life forever. Fidel Castro had opened the doors for us to leave Cuba. I remember that day when my father stood up and simply said, "Pack up, we're leaving!"
After some preparations, we managed to get things together, food for the trip and money. But we didn't expect one little thing. They didn't let small children leave the country by boat. My father hesitated. We soon enough found a solution, which was to hide me. I couldn't believe it. I had to hide! We went to an old fisherman's house down by the coast. We told him our situation and he said, "Sure, I'll sell you the boat on one condition: you've got to take me with you."
We weren't crazy for agreeing to take the old man with us for two reasons: first, he was a skilled sailor; second, his boat was unique: I needed to hide and his boat had a secret place under the chair of the driver where only a child would fit.
Two days before we left, we took some time to say good-bye to all the family that would be left behind. Then we made arrangements in the United States with family members to pick us up from Key West. Then we were on our way. We sailed all the way from Cienfuegos to the middle of the sea when we saw something afar. At first it looked like a light house, but then we knew what it was. It was the United States Coast Guard. They stopped us and a small boat came to pick us up from our boat. Then I saw that they burned the boat we came on. I asked my father, "Dad, why are they burning the boat?" My father answered, "Because son, if someone else finds it, they might think that someone died in the boat."
Shortly after, we had to switch boats, I don't really know what the name of the boat was, but I do know that it was a naval ship. During that night a storm came that was as furious as a hurricane, and then for a moment I heard my father say, "That storm would have killed us."

Freedom: The Model of Christian Liberty (DVD)
"Give me liberty or give me death!"
Patrick Henry's famous declaration not only helped launch the War for Independence, it also perfectly summarized the mindset that gave birth to, and sustained, the unprecedented experiment in Christian liberty that was America.
The freedom our Founders envisioned was not freedom from suffering, want, or hard work. Nor was it freedom to indulge every appetite or whim without restraint—that would merely be servitude to a different master. No, the Founders' passion was to live free before God, unfettered by the chains of autocracy, shackles that slowly but inexorably bind men when the governments they fashion fail to recognize and uphold freedom's singular, foundational truth: that all men are created in the image of God, and are thereby co-equally endowed with the right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
This presentation is a similar call, not to one but many. By reintroducing the principles of freedom that gave birth to America, it is our prayer that Jesus, the true and only ruler over the nations, will once again be our acknowledged Sovereign, that we may again know and exult in the great truth that "where the Spirit of the LORD is, there is liberty" (2 Cor. 3:17).
Welcome to the Second American Revolution!
This DVD features "Liberty: The Model of Christian Liberty" along with "Dawn's Early Light: A Brief History of America's Christian Foundations." Bonus features include a humorous but instructive collection of campaign ads and Eric Holmberg's controversial YouTube challenge concerning Mitt Romney's campaign for president.

Massacre of Innocence (DVD)
Exposing The Occult Roots of Abortion
This presentation looks at the spiritual roots of abortion and exposes the myths surrounding child killing. Little known historical facts about abortion and how they relate to modern feminism are presented logically and accurately. Has been effective in converting many to a pro-life position.
Massacre of Innocence goes where no pro-life presentation has gone before in "tearing the lid off abortion" to reveal the spiritual realities we must battle if we will bring an end to this crime. The presentation is absorbing, fast-paced, informative and incredibly devastating to any attempt to justify abortion.
"… an extraordinary statement … a powerfully articulate presentation about what abortion really means, and why a great and moral nation like the United States must not allow the slaughter to continue."

The Beast of Revelation: Identified (DVD)
Who is the dreaded beast of Revelation?
Now at last, a plausible candidate for this personification of evil incarnate has been identified (or re-identified). Ken Gentry's insightful analysis of scripture and history is likely to revolutionize your understanding of the book of Revelation — and even more importantly — amplify and energize your entire Christian worldview!
Historical footage and other graphics are used to illustrate the lecture Dr. Gentry presented at the 1999 Ligonier Conference in Orlando, Florida. It is followed by a one-hour question and answer session addressing the key concerns and objections typically raised in response to his position. This presentation also features an introduction that touches on not only the confusion and controversy surrounding this issue — but just why it may well be one of the most significant issues facing the Church today.
Ideal for group meetings, personal Bible study — for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of John's famous letter "… to the seven churches which are in Asia." (Revelation 1:4)
Running Time: 145 minutes
