The Fuming Fuji is outraged at the marketing of toxic food, especially when it's aimed at the small fry. This week, the Fuming Fuji has decided to have a serious problem with donuts.
But, Fuming Fuji, you ask, isn't a donut now and then an OK treat – it's better than a candy bar, right?
The Fuming Fuji says no!
The claim: Donuts are a delicious, homespun pastry made from mostly flour and good feelings, so they're not as bad as candy.
The catch: Donuts are an empty, machine-made free-radical fest made from sugar and fat, so they are actually the worst food on the planet.
The comeback: But Fuming Fuji, they're bread! How can they be so bad?
The conclusion: Donuts are a mixture of equal parts sugar (bleached) and fat (usually lard). Then, they are fried. In fat.
The catchphrase: If you eat donuts you are nuts.
Disclaimer: Mark Sisson and the Worker Bees do not necessarily endorse the views of the Fuming Fuji.

Bad Biology is billed as a "God-Awful Love Story", but to me it's not much of a love story at all, god-awful or not. The two leads don't actually meet until the end of the film, and it's not even the least bit romantic.
The two central characters are a man and woman who each have enhanced and/or added sexual equipment. In Henenlotter's world this translates to mutated and deformed! This causes problems for their sex partners/victims who seem to suffer from coming in contact with them.
The two leads are more or less made for one another to engage sexually. Like I said though, their meeting isn't until the last act and it doesn't run as smoothly planned.
This isn't Henenlotter's best I must say, but that also means it's much better than a lot of stuff out there that tries for the old grindhouse vibe. It's as sexually crude as possible without becoming pornographic, so don't watch it with the kiddies. That may be one of the problems too is that it's more or less a nonstop sexathon when a bit more story could have been focused on. Henenlotter's films, while outrageous, were always a step ahead because of good characters and story. Nobody here is all that interesting to be honest. Also, the stop motion animated disembodied penis with a sinister mind of it's own was done before in the Russ Meyer tribute film, Pervert!Read more ›
Director Frank Henenlotter always walks the fine line between psychedelic brilliant freak show extraordinaire and abhorrent immature smut peddlin' freak. With bizarre little gems like Basket Case, Brain Damage, and Frankenhooker, he always keeps you off balance. And here with Bad Biology, he pushes you completely over the edge. This has got to be his craziest stuff yet.
Jennifer is born with a gift (or curse) from God--some extra sweet spots below the belt. 7 of 'em, in fact. This caused her to start menstrating at age 5, and currently makes her reproductive organs function at an accelerated rate. Plus she suffers from ESAS (Extreme Sexual Arousal Syndrome). Her crazy libido nearly controls her every action, and this heightened sexuality often turns deadly for her bedroom partners. She gets a little too crazy-hot-excited, to put it mildly. And to top it all off, she frequently gives a quick birth to some mutated monster babies, which she quickly discards in the nearby trash. Sheesh!
Next we have Bax, a man with some private problems of his own. On the day he was born, the doctor made a horrible mistake when attempting to cut off his umbilical cord. Ouch! Bax got stitched up, but had problems functioning when he got older. So he decided to inject steroids and some growth hormones, and the problem expanded out of control. So he is toting around a monster with a mind of its own, in which he constantly has to search for the proper prescription (and non-prescription) drugs to appease this thing. Double Sheesh!Read more ›
Bad Biology is wrong on so many levels, but it is handled with such unbridled over the top silliness, that one can not take it remotely seriously. I was captivated from beginning to end because the actors are convincing and there is lots of female nudity. If you think you've seen it all, think again! Bad Biology is outrageous sick fun for the whole family.....NOT! :-D

Much ado about Dulac touloulou
Published: Saturday, August 25, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 25, 2007 at 12:17 a.m.
HOUMA -- When an unexpected visitor showed up at Russell Guidrys Dulac trailer Monday, he braved its treacherous, hefty claw to show the world the biggest touloulou hed ever seen.
"Im 59 years old, and I seen a lot of touloulou crabs," said Guidry, a shrimper. "But I never seen one this big."
Its shell measured 31/2 inches across -- about the size of a plump lemon -- and the crabs distinctive, oversized left claw could have easily taken a finger off.
Touloulous are known to those outside south Louisiana as fiddler crabs, for their single large claw, or ghost crabs, for their pale, sand-colored bodies that allow them to scurry across the beach undetected.
The name touloulou is adapted from the French word "tourlourou," local Cajun expert Bud Landry said, "but its touloulou around here, and thats just fine with me."
Guidry thinks he may have disturbed the crab by accidentally digging up its den while he was working along the bayou bank. His cat, Two Socks, then chased it under a large plastic drum.
"It bit my cat," Guidry said. "He was just trying to play."
Guidry heard a tapping from underneath of the drum -- the crabs will often wave their cumbersome, oversized claws wildly when they feel threatened or are trying to beguile a lady crab. He then lifted the barrel to find what he thought to be a mutant touloulou crab.
As it turns out, the giant wasnt your run-of-the-mill touloulou mutated by some mysterious bayou ooze or pumped full of anabolic steroids.
It wasnt technically a touloulou at all -- it was a giant land crab, said David Bourgeois, an agent with the LSU AgCenter. The species is distantly related to the fiddler, or touloulou, but blue in color and, as the name implies, much, much bigger.
It is typically found in more tropical climates of Florida, Texas, and the Caribbean, but is an unusual find for south Louisiana, Bourgeois said.
The Dulac native said hed seen a lot of the critters in his time, and he immediately recognized that he had something special here.
"It must have been real old," he said. "Ive never seen one that big."
Guidry said he placed it in a birdcage with some water and kept it there from Monday until Friday morning, when a Courier photographer documented the catch.
Then, he let it scurry off into the grass toward the bayou.
"I figured something like that deserves to stay alive," Guidry said.

|(Jan Victors)
Sam served God. He wore a little sacred robe. Once a year, his proud but bereft mother would make him a new one. His parents would bring it when they came to the holy city for the annual sacrifice. Eli would bless the boy's parents: "Your real sacrifice was in giving your only child to God. May God give you more children together." Then they would go home to their empty quiet house...
Over the years, Sam grew in physical and spiritual stature, and saw his parents once a year. Both God and the people loved him. He was a good boy.
(Retelling of 1 Samuel 2:18-20 and 26)

Saugatuck studies business use of right-of-ways
Plans for two Saugatuck businesses to operate in the public right-of-way are on hold after city council decided Monday to take a more in-depth look into the issue.
Plans for two Saugatuck businesses to operate in the public right-of-way are on hold after city council decided Monday to take a more in-depth look into the issue.
A Saugatuck couple lost their pet cat but were otherwise unhurt in a fire at their 3406 Elizabeth St. home Friday, May 13.
The Saugatuck Center for the Arts was given the Best Branded Content – Nonprofit award for its 2015 Mason Street Warehouse "Cabaret" promo video at the Academy of In
The Mermaid Bar & Grill has a new but familiar owner.
When your team wins nine of the 17 events at a track invitational, you're generally going to have a pretty good chance at taking home first-place honors.
The proposed budget for the Saugatuck-Douglas Police Department tops $1 million for the second year in a row, but administration fees for the City of Saugatuck will drop by $15,000.
A new homeowner building in Douglas has plans she wants residents and the city to understand.
In 2016, with high-speed Internet access essential to more and more at-home workers and students' learning, is Saugatuck Township underserved?
Jane Alice "Janie" Latham, 55, of Eaton Rapids passed away Saturday, April 30, 2016, at Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Center in Detroit.
Monday's accord between Douglas officials and Tower Marine owner R.J. Peterson over dock lengths (see related story) was short lived.

"We are taking the opportunity to have a look at some players and want to assess what they're like at this level," said Scott Johnson, who will manage the team before moving to a new role as director of rugby for Scotland.
"We need to be able to find out whether players who have done the business for their clubs can replicate that form in internationals.
"We also want to enable certain players who are known to us - for example Nick De Luca and Max Evans - to have the sort of off-season physical preparation that they've not had for a few years because of the demands of touring schedules.
Scotland will also be without Sean Maitland, Richie Gray and Stuart Hogg, who will be on duty with the British and Irish Lions.
The event will involve double-header internationals played on three successive weekends in Durban, Nelspruit and Pretoria and has extra spice given that South Africa and Samoa are in Scotland's pool at the 2015 rugby World Cup.
The Scotland squad comprises 14 players currently with Glasgow Warriors, who are in RaboDirect PRO12 semi-final action against Leinster on Saturday.
The nine uncapped players are hookers Steven Lawrie and Pat MacArthur, lock Tim Swinson and backs Alex Dunbar, Peter Horne, Peter Murchie, Tommy Seymour, Greig Tonks and Duncan Taylor.
The squad will convene on May 27 for a three day training camp before flying to South Africa on May 31.

I am using this plugin for some time already. It is really great and unique, it works nice and easy and really is easy to set and admin, but after some time of usage I discovered one really feature needed.
Resize of images once uploading. The issue is, my web-hosting provider is complaing of my web eating their CPU and resources. I was wondering how come, its only forum, but then I reallized, some users upload really huge pictures, even through the 600px width displays only, its resized by browser and the huge file is downloaded often so the therefore the high CPU. Can I please ask you if you do work no such a feature or if not, do you plan to? I think once this is in, this will be the only best plugin of this type. thanx for reply

New Military Records
Was your ancestor a war hero?
View thousands of brand new military records, including Chelsea Pensioner records, Military Nurses, Prisoners of war and much more.
Technical Update - 23rd August 2011
Today saw us eventually roll out some changes that we have be trying to deploy for a few (very stressful) weeks now. Again, I'd like to apologise for any inconvenience that this has caused anyone, and I hope in the majority of cases we should see an improvement in service. We are very carefully watching the logs that report errors that occur, and anything that can be fixed quickly will be actioned. I do have to confess that some errors do occur that are not straight-forward and we are unable to replicate. To help us, we have added additional logging of these errors that can hopefully help us to resolve these obscure issues.
Included in this release
What probably interests members more is what is included in the release, so here goes:
- Military records - A new set of data records, that can be optionally purchased by Platinum subscribers, or accessed via Pay Per View, has been added. As always the records can be searched for free, but viewing the transcriptions and where available, the images, has to be done via the relevant purchase option. There are more records that will be released into this option over the coming weeks.
- Household transcriptions - Previously only the 1911 census had the full household transcription. We have now added this feature to all census records. You get rather large and very interesting results when you come across an institution as several hundred people can be listed under one roof!
- Payment mechanism - We have updated our payment mechanism. The payments are now handled by the Genes Reunited payment system, where before it was routed via the Friends Reunited system. You should not really experience any real difference, except we have made the screen a little prettier.
- Home Page - We have revised the tree that appears on the home page, which allows more interactivity and editing is easier. We have also made some minor changes to this page to highlight the search and improve performance.
- Searching for names beginning with "Con","Nul" - The technology we use sometimes affects the way our application works in unexpected ways. One of them is the ability to use certain words in the web address. There is now a fix for this, and it has been included in this release, so for those that have seen an error when searching for "Con" in forename, now you can try again and not see an error!
- Searching with spaces - The same issue affected people who inadvertently had saved names that included spaces at the start or end of the name. When searching an error screen was shown, with no indication of why. You should now see the search results you expected.
- Report link on boards - The "Report as Abuse" link on boards has been changed to "Report". The reason behind this text change is that there are 4 report options, and only 1 relates to abuse. More changes to the report mechanism should be coming soon too.
- Links to old blogs - The blog summary pages now provide links (at the bottom) to previous posts, so you can scroll back to the very start. Remember, you also narrow down the blogs displayed by clicking on the blog account link, i.e. Genes Blog, or on one of the tag links, i.e. Who Do You Think You Are, and this will narrow the results shown in the summary.
- Performance improvements - We have also implemented a few changes across the site that should see an slight improvement in the load of some pages. This work is definitely ongoing and we always will strive to make the site run as fast as possible.
We have some more exciting changes coming soon, including tree improvements, more data records to search, improvements to photo section, etc. Having now got this release out the way, I can also concentrate again on suggestions and bugs getting reported, and making some of the smaller, but most requested changes to the site including fixes to the boards, transcription errors, and more.
Thank you once again for supporting the site and hope you enjoying some of the changes made and that are coming.
Best regards, Phil Moir

Hi Phil,
Is it possible to add the page numbers to the bottom of each thread instead of always having to scroll back to the top to change the page?Just a thought!

Hi Elaine. I will be implementing various fixes and tweaks to the boards (as requested by the Genes member), such as restoring some dropped functionality, over the next couple of months.
Hi Phyll, This home page feature should be restored in the next release.
Hi Brenda, The page numbers should be at the bottom of each thread. They appear after the comments box. Can you check and let me know, just in case you're not seeing them for a reason.

Hi Shane, I will pass on your issue to our tree developers for immediate review.

How much money have you made on this stock since they entered bankruptcy? How about your bonds?
I also notice you have never posted on anything but USCR. Don't let the past blind you to the future. I will make money on USCR. It's just one of 80-90 holdings on any given day. DaninFW
You are right that I only have posted on this board. I decided to participate on this one because I thought I smelled a bankruptcy coming about a year and a half ago and was amused to see all the posters pumping this stock and the posers saying that US Concrete would never file for bankruptcy, that the bondholders would take equity without a bankruptcy, blah blah blah. Through all those posts I began to realize that there are a lot of people on these boards that don't know squat about what they are talking about, that can't read a financial statement, that are investing (or day trading) in industries that they don't understand. That's why I stopped reading these boards about 3 months ago, when I realized that some people still held out hope to recover anything on the warrants. Ain't gonna happen.By the way, I asked you about your investments in US Concrete (not SBGI) because you continually said that your profit in their bonds would more than offset any loss you may suffer on the stock. It appears that play has not worked out yet.
Made over a half million last year just on SBGI. One of many big hits. It was just my best. I think you know the answer on USCR. Check back in 6-12 months. DaninFW

When I was in India this winter, I discovered the HIMALAYA brand products and was absolutely amazed by their quality and taste/ smell. Back home I tried to find a way ordering them and came across the HIMALAYA USA brand. I must say I am diappointed, though. The creams and lotions have a very different smell (that I personally don't really like - esp. compared to the original). This cream is very soothing on your feet, but I have a hard time getting used to the smell. Too bad the recipies had to be changed for the American market.
This is great stuff and one of the only things that has helped me get rid of cracked heels.

a little bit sticky
Posted by dingdongtwid on Feb 24, 2015
I am always in a lookout for a good foot cream for my dry feet, and I found it with this. It does not immediately soften your calluses, but it is enough to keep it moisturized. I use it at night time and wear socks and get this nice soft feeling the next day. 4 star as its after effect only lasts for few hours.
Thanks for fast shipping!

soothing foot cream, doesn't clog pores but would appreciate it if it was a little more moisturising, have to apply twice awaiting an 1/2hr in between, pleasant smell & easy to spread

Through a strategic repositioning of a commitment made to Montgomery County as a result of County Executive Ike Leggett's October 2008 business development mission to Korea, the County has made a critical two-million dollar infusion into its Small Business Revolving Loan Fund (SBRLF).
The SBRLF was established in 2002 as part of the Montgomery County Economic Development Fund Grant and Loan Program (EDF) and is managed by the Department of Economic Development (DED). Since then, more than $1.883 million in SBRLF loans has been distributed to 30 County businesses, many of which are minority owned.
This $2 million investment boosts to $2.4 million the amount available this year for small business loans. Read more.

Nicky Henderson's second favourite for the feature race on the opening day of next month's Cheltenham Festival stepped at the final hurdle of the 32Red Hurdle and tumbled over it.
Both Darlan and champion jockey Tony McCoy were flung to the turf and the horse had to be destroyed.
JP McManus's charge was among the top performers in the novice ranks last term and won the Christmas Hurdle at Kempton on Boxing Day.
That saw the six-year-old priced at around 7/2 for the most prestigious hurdling event in the National Hunt calendar behind ante-post favourite Hurricane Fly.
Henderson said: "It's some game, isn't it? Why is it always the good ones."
Reigning Champion Hurdler Rock On Ruby held off Countrywide Flame to win the Listed two mile contest.

AG: Dealers may be 'rebranding' deadly Pa. heroin
PITTSBURGH -- Drug dealers may be "rebranding" a deadly heroin blend that is being blamed for 22 overdose deaths in western Pennsylvania, Attorney General Kathleen Kane said.
Kane's remarks came after state drug agents charged a 29-year-old Clairton man on Thursday with possessing heroin stamped with the name "Sky High." Heroin dealers stamp individual bags with catchy names that give the drug a street identity.
On Friday, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey also asked the federal Drug Enforcement Administration to help identify the source of the tainted heroin, remove it from the streets, and bring to justice those responsible.
Earlier this week, Kane and other law enforcement sources confirmed that a heroin blend sold in bags marked "Theraflu" or "Bud Ice" has been linked to the recent rash of fatal overdoses in and around Pittsburgh.
Authorities believe the "Sky High" bags also might contain the same deadly mix of heroin and fentanyl, a synthetic morphine up to 100 times more powerful than heroin.
Kane said there's reason to believe dealers are trying to sell the same drugs under different labels now that the other names have been publicized.
"Our agents and investigators are working cooperatively and effectively with their counterparts in the region in an effort to track down the heroin source so that they can be brought to justice," Kane said.
Dr. Karl Williams, the Allegheny County medical examiner, has confirmed 14 deaths from the deadly mixture.

A Dothan man has been indicted for murder by a Houston County grand jury.
Thirty-one-year-old Zephaniah Moore is charged in the shooting death of another man.
Sources say a dispute involving drugs and counterfeit money may have led to the violence.
Fifty-one-year-old Travis stringer was gunned down outside his mother's home on Lake Street in December.
Police say Moore and stringer had an on-going disagreement.
Moore was arrested after investigators received an anonymous tip about a possible witness to the slaying.
An arraignment date has not been set.
Moore is being held in the Houston County jail under a $125,000 bond.

So DD keeps having reactions to her vaxs so the people at Tipat Chalav had a piss fight with our Ped and it was decided that I was supposed to get an appointment for the allergy clinic. So they gave me the name of the place I was supposed to call and I called macabi and read off the paper they gave me how to request an appt. The woman on the phone said no problem and she even spoke English. She made the appointment and then we hung up. The appointment is Wednesday and I'm scared sh*tless that I've screwed it up. I had a dream that I got to the appointment and asked to have my daughter vax. and they tell me "What are you crazy?! You're here to be analyzed for why your daughter is getting sick every time she gets a shot." And I have to start the whole thing over again. Sometimes I wish there was a fear cleansing track for living here. (Maya and Evenstar will totally understand the reference)

All I can say is, while it's totally possible that what you dreamt will happen at Wednesday's appointment, it won't be your fault and it won't be because you screwed up. That's just how the medical system (and everything else) works here. Just bring all your dd's medical history and be prepared for whatever will happen.
Also, even if they just want to analyze why she's having reactions, that may not be a bad thing- she could have an allergy to some specific vaccine ingredient that you wouldn't know about unless they do specific testing for it. Then it may be possible to have a vaccine formulated without that ingredient, or at least be able to better predict which vaccine can cause a reaction.
One question, though- why did Tipat Chalav have to fight with your pedi? Shouldn't they be on the same page on wanting to figure out what's going on? If you're interested, I can recomend a great pedi in Jerusalem who gave us very good advice on vaccines (my daughter has a history of febrile seizures and neurologic condition, so the pedi/Tipat Chalav actually had us delay/split some vaccines that were statistically more likely to trigger a seizure in her case. But she was still fully vaxed and caught up on the schedule by a little over a year.)
what kind of reactions was she having? was it the normal fever, large red welt, fussy kind?
Avishag ('07) IUGR, Oren ('08), Hila ('10), Yahel ('11) IUGR/FTT, Tagel ('13) IUGR/preemie Adele ('15) IUGR and #7 due Dec 2016
if it happens, you just go with it. we have been seeing a specialist regarding ODDs lack of weight gain. doc ordered a special test. he didnt give me any instructions, so i just made a normal blood test. when I showed up the woman FREAKED at me that i didnt do it right. then she set an appointment for october (this was june). ive been so nervous I had DH call every week... and we keep getting different answers. its supposed to be this week, and im still worrying!
Maya (5/09), Noa (6/11), Yonatan (1/15)
Proud American wife of an Israeli
zahav- I also thought Tipat Halav and my Ped would be on the same page but my Ped felt that Tipat Halav didn't follow protocol and call him when she broke out in hives at the 6 month shots. So I think they got into a blame game.
Becky- at the 1, 2 month shots she had normal symptoms of fever and feeling ick but at the 6 month shots she broke out in hives and another time she had poopy issues.
I figured they would just split up her shots and then we'd be ok. I want her to have her shots I'd just rather she not scare the crap out of me by breaking out in HIVs. If I don't get anywhere towards getting her shots then I'll make an appt for Channuka to get her shots and hope she'll be ok. Also the tipat halav nurse didn't give me another appt time so I don't know when I'm going for the 18 months vist?!

The hand that rocks the cradle still rules the world, and always will.
And she shouldn't get the next set until they know what caused it -- the next reaction could potentially be severe.
Anyway, I'm sure you did the right thing -- and I hope they find out what caused the reaction!
Also, you'll likely get a paper for next visit after her vaccines because they need to be spaced x-amount of weeks/months....
Good luck. Sorry you have to deal with this stress!!!
You too, magistra!
Update!! In the end I did it right! Yay!! We went to the doctor and she gave us a referal so we can go to HEK and get her shots one by one. The plan is one day they are going to give her one measles, one mumps, one rubella and then one chicken pox vax. Then see in between each if she breaks out. Then we'll go back in a week and she'll get the rest of the shots one by one. Hopefully we'll know which shot bothers her. Now to figure out how to make an appointment with the Maon at HEK.

Nice! That sounds great, though like a lot of work for you! Nitsah's one year shots scared the crap out of me because of all the autism fears, and I kind of wish I'd spread them out. She got them all in one day, but except for a fever that night she was ok. Hope E's shots go well!!
DD-- born October 2011 and more fun every day!

Definition of wild-caught in English:
(Of an animal) taken from the wild rather than bred from captive stock: a zoo known to have bought wild-caught gorillas on the black market
More example sentences
- Gallinaceous birds seem to be ideal model hosts for this kind of experimental study because wild-caught birds can be bred and raised in captivity and released successfully into wild populations.
- Therefore, I measured the average extraction rate of each species separately using wild-caught birds that I put into a large aviary.
- His organization opposes the trade in wild-caught birds because of conservation and cruelty concerns, but he warns of its health hazards as well.

When SDRL declared the 1st quarter dividend would be moved to this year the stock went down by $1.70, had the company called the dividend a special dividend the stock would probably have gone up $2.00. This company adds value by spining off IPOs and retaining 75% of the new company. Then the company returns the money to shareholders by the way of huge dividends, what more could an investor ask for? The company is worth $50 now and would still have a 6.8% yield. When the value of the IPOs are fully realized SDRL at $100.00 would still have a 3.4% yield. If you can only own one stock this is it and until the world stops using oil it will remain the one to own.

One of the very first charities to realise the potential of the event was the Friends of St Luke's, closely followed by Our Lady's Hospital for Sick Children in Crumlin. As usual, both charities had hundreds running, walking and jogging for them yesterday.
Others with big teams included the Irish Kidney Association, the Cystic Fibrosis Association, Dublin Simon, Our Lady's Hospice, the Parkinson's Association, St Joseph's School for the Blind, Make A Wish Ireland and the Children's Sunshine Home.
Last year, 580 women ran or walked the Flora Women's Mini Marathon as part of the MS |Ireland team. This year, the charity has a fund-raising target of €100,000 and was using Facebook, Twitter and podcasts to recruit new supporters.
"Two out of every three people affected by multiple sclerosis are women. More than 7,000 people in Ireland have the disease. Thousands more become involved, with |extra responsibilities and worries placed on partners, children and carers," says Natasha Duffy of MS Ireland.
Walking the Mini Marathon for Fighting Blindness was Marina O'Neill, who lost her sight and suffered severe head injuries after she was hit by a car 16 years ago.
Marina always had a big interest in sport and was a volunteer at the Special Olympics World Games.
Despite her problems, she started walking three or four times a week near her home in Dublin's Clontarf.
Her proudest moment came last year when she completed the Flora Women's Mini Marathon, raising over €2,500 for Fighting Blindness.
"There is no cure for my condition, but at least I can help others who will benefit from the world-class research undertaken by Fighting Blindness at Trinity College."
Broadcaster and mother of two Lorraine Keane signed up for the Mini Marathon to get fit again and to help a women's group in Sierra Leone, funded by overseas aid agency World Vision Ireland.
"The money raised through the Mini Marathon will go to a brilliant women's group in Sierra Leone.
"It started when a few mothers approached a local primary teacher because they wanted to learn how to read and write so they could help their children with their homework," says Evelyn Wolf of World Vision Ireland.
Raising funds for Temple Street Hospital was Jennifer Holmes, whose baby brother Lee died of cot death when aged five months.
"He had been in Temple Street Hospital with a breathing problem, but he died at home in his sleep and was brought back to the hospital. We will never forget how good they were to us at that time," says Jennifer.
Funds raised for Temple Street from this year's Mini Marathon will go towards buying life-saving equipment, including incubators for seriously ill newborns, a dialysis machine, a mobile X-ray machine and a ventilator.
For the girls of Trinity Comprehensive College in Ballymum, |training for the Mini Marathon was a special challenge since they hoped to raise more than ¤1,000 for the Irish ME Trust – just like they did last year.
*Don't forget to send the well-earned money you have raised to your special charity as soon as possible!

Secret meetings, high-profile celebrities, betrayal, rivalry and defection
- From: Sunday Herald Sun
- April 20, 2013
UNDER other circumstances, Kym Ellery would probably have been elated.
International actor-turned-fashionista Mischa Barton had donned one of the hot young designer's creations for Melbourne Cup Day, showcasing the outfit to the A-list assembled in the lavish Emirates marquee.
"I really wanted to wear this dress because they made it for me," Barton told admirers. "I really liked it."
But Ms Ellery knew two other celebrity clothes horses for whom she'd specifically designed spring carnival outfits - Rebecca Judd and Lara Bingle - would never get a chance to model them.
Myer, which had an exclusive deal with Ms Ellery, had a sniff she was negotiating with arch-rival David Jones, and was so annoyed it stopped Judd and Bingle wearing the Ellery frocks and dumped her as a Fashions on the Field judge on Oaks Day.
That Friday, Ms Ellery, 29, was due in Sydney to meet Prince Charles and show off creations to promote Australian wool.
But her brush with royalty is not the only reason the day will live on in her memory. It was also the day she signed her Ellery Land brand with David Jones, triggering a captivating hearing in Victoria's Supreme Court this week.
The tug-of-war between Myer and David Jones has involved secret meetings, high-profile celebrities, betrayal, rivalry and defection.
Evidence from both retail giants has offered a revealing look behind the scenes of the glamour world of fashion - and it's not all pretty.
Ms Ellery is facing off against Myer over an alleged breach of her exclusivity agreement when she jumped ship to rival David Jones 18 months before her three-year deal was to expire.
Myer is seeking damages as well as an injunction preventing Ms Ellery from supplying any more of her Ellery and L'America brands to David Jones until September 2014.
Ms Ellery claims the contract was excessively restrictive and a restraint of trade.
Myer barrister Peter Murdoch QC told the court the retailer had organised for Ms Ellery to dress celebrities, including Judd and Bingle, and to judge the world-renowned Fashions on the Field.
"Had not Judy Coomber (former group general manager of merchandise) become aware on or about October 17 of the sale by Ms Ellery to David Jones of the L'America brand, it is clear that Ms Ellery would have promoted Myer to still get the benefit of these prestigious occasions, with celebrities wearing her apparel, notwithstanding she was about to sign an exclusivity agreement with David Jones," Mr Murdoch said.
L'America is Ms Ellery's newly established secondary youth label.
About a year earlier, in October 2011, Ms Ellery approached Ms Coomber to express concern about the low level of orders and her precarious financial situation.
Ms Coomber told the court she had suggested to Ms Ellery that she could try introducing professional workwear into her range as there was a gap in the market to be filled.
Ms Ellery's barrister, David Shaven QC, told the court workwear was a "world away" from Ellery's signature aesthetic and, despite knowing Ms Ellery faced financial difficulties, Myer refused to increase orders.
MS Coomber said Ms Ellery had not made the full extent of her financial troubles clear and that Myer was supportive of its exclusive designers.
"If it was a matter of Kym's about to go under, we would have sat down and worked through other alternatives," Ms Coomber said.
That statement is supported by court documents which reveal that, upon discovering Ms Ellery had entered a new deal with David Jones, Ms Coomber asked Ms Ellery to "have the decency" to give her an opportunity to review a figure that would encourage Ms Ellery to stay with Myer.
Ms Ellery says in court documents she "nominated a minimum spend commitment that Myer could not agree to, rather than flatly refuse to contemplate a return to Myer".
The nominated figure was $1.5 million, up from $187,000 in 2012, and to her shock, Myer agreed.
But it was too late. She already had signed with David Jones and the costs of walking away from that deal would have been greater.
Ms Ellery's business adviser told Myer executive general manager of merchandise, Adam Stapleton, that the "financial consequences of breaching the contract with David Jones would be significantly greater than the consequences for breaching the contract with Myer", according to an affidavit.
Was Ms Ellery naive, arrogant, desperate or just inept in striking a deal with David Jones only part-way through her deal with Myer?
Fashion insiders suggest it was a bit of all four.
DEPARTMENT stores enter into exclusivity agreements with designers because it adds cachet to the stores and encourages customers to spend on more profitable, house-owned brands.
The profitability of selling the designer clothing is not high but holding such brands is pivotal to establishing a department store's reputation as a fashion destination.
The department stores rely on these brands to act as a point of difference. They invest heavily in them, and that's why so many eyes are on the outcome of this case.
While David Jones is not a party to the proceedings and says it is not funding Ms Ellery's defence, the decision will have a direct impact on it.
It certainly added fuel to the fire when it opened its VIP autumn winter fashion launch in February with Miranda Kerr stepping out in Ellery and the designer seated prominently front row.
Ms Ellery knew from a young age she wanted to be a designer, spending her childhood in Perth print-making and playing ceramics with her artist mother.
"All of my drawings from the age of four are of women with hats that take up three-quarters of the page," she told Russh magazine in 2011.
After graduating from the prestigious Central St Martins College in London and working as a stylist for four years, she began her business in 2010 with a $20,000 bank loan secured by a guarantee on her father's house.
The business blossomed into a celebrity favourite, and Cate Blanchett, Rihanna, Gisele Bundchen and Jessica Chastain sported Ellery designs.
L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival chief executive Graeme Lewsey says Ms Ellery is one of the strongest Australian design talents emerging today.
"She's one of my personal favourites. Her designs are really contemporary, she uses beautiful fabrics and her silhouettes are beyond fashion-forward," he says.
After four days of hearings, the case was adjourned on Friday and the parties re-entered negotiations.
