By the time they're 18 years old, the closest most Buffalonians have come to world travel is a trip to neighboring Canada. High schoolers listen to lectures about the exotic delights of foreign lands in language and history classes, and dream of someday exploring the world. However, some Buffalo teens already can proudly call themselves globetrotters.
Brady Stevens, a junior at Nichols School, moved to Brussels, Belgium, from Taipei, Taiwan, when he was only 6 months old. While both of Brady's parents are originally from Buffalo, the family relocated to Belgium from Taiwan because of a new job offer for his father.
Brady doesn't remember much of his childhood in Brussels, except that he could be quite stubborn. He attended a French school for three years starting at age 2, but would refuse to speak French most of the time. Brady much preferred English, which his parents continued to speak at home while in Belgium.
"I either spoke a lot, or [not] at all," he said.
At age 5, Brady and his family moved back to Buffalo. He continued learning French while in Buffalo, and even had a French baby sitter. However, Brady was mainly excited just to be back in a place where English was the primary language. Despite his resistance as a young child, Brady's choice for foreign language classes at Nichols was French.
Through Nichols, Brady had the opportunity last spring to participate in a French exchange program. After he had a French student stay with him in Buffalo for a couple of weeks, Brady then got to visit France.
Although he did not live in France as a child, it was neat for him to visit another French-speaking country. While in France, certain smells brought back some memories for Brady.
"When I smelled something, I remembered part of my childhood," he said.
While in France, Brady did a lot of sightseeing in Paris, and also visited Le Havre, Normandy. He lived with a French family for two weeks.
When asked what one of his favorite parts of the whole experience was, Brady said, he really liked "being immersed in something I was good at."
He is studying French 4, an AP class at Nichols.
"I'm going strong!" he said.
Brady has visited Belgium twice since he moving back to the States, but the last time he was in fourth grade. He hopes to visit again someday.
Jack Kane, a senior at Canisius High School, was born in Bogotá, Colombia. Jack moved to the U.S. at 3½ months old when he was adopted by the Kane family of Buffalo.
"For whatever reason my biological parents couldn't take care of me, and I was put up for adoption by FANA," Jack said.
FANA is an organization that specifically focuses on the adoptions of abandoned Colombian children. FANA stands for "Fundación para la Asistencia de la Niñez Abandonada," which translates to the Foundation for the Assistance of Abandoned Children. There are different chapters of FANA throughout the world, in Minnesota, Washington, D.C., Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Western New York.
When Jack was born in Colombia, he was originally named Bernardo Enciso. However, when the Kanes adopted him, they gave him the name John Edmund, although everyone calls him Jack.
His younger sister, Elizabeth, also was born in Colombia and adopted as an infant.
On being adopted, and having an adopted sister, Jack said: "I guess I take a lot of things for granted. I don't really think much of it, and no one really treats me differently."
He returned to Colombia the summer before his junior year at Canisius. While in Colombia, Jack visited the capital, Bogotá, the Colombian countryside and the beaches of northern Colombia.
He was shocked by the massive size and the endless hustle and bustle of the capital. However, his favorite part of Colombia was Cartagena, which is a beach town located in northern Colombia.
"It is on the water, and the weather there is always warm and sunny. There was always something to do there, whether it was walking down the beach or visiting the old city."
One cool thing about Cartagena is that it is protected by a wall.
"I got to walk all along that wall and all through the city," Jack said.
He said visiting Colombia was a meaningful and unforgettable experience.
"I feel very connected to Colombia ever since I went there," he said.
Htaw Pakao, a junior at City Honors School, was born in Mudon, Burma. Burma, or Myanmar, is located in Southeast Asia. Both of Htaw's parents are natives of the area. When she was about 2 years old, she moved along with her parents and brother, Tala, to Thailand.
"I remember nothing at all about my childhood in Burma or Thailand," Htaw said, adding that her family moved from "Burma to Thailand because of government issues."
Htaw's sister, Mi Rasa, was born while the family lived in Thailand. They relocated to Buffalo in February 2001. Htaw does not remember any major problems in learning English, although her parents had to take classes to learn the language.
In June, Htaw's family returned to Burma to visit relatives. The political unrest previously experienced in Burma has somewhat subsided, which allowed her family the opportunity to return for vacation.
"We visited every relative on the planet" during a monthlong visit, Htaw said.
Aside from family time, Htaw and her family visited a lot of temples and pagodas. While she said she had a lot of fun spending time with her family, she admits that life in Burma is very different from that in the United States.
Her relatives do not have electricity or running water. Instead, every family has its own well for water.
"I got bored a lot, but it made me go outside and interact with people," Htaw said. "We went shopping, and I played with my cousins a lot."
Overall, Htaw enjoyed the chance to reconnect with the ways of her homeland, even though they are very different from the United States.
"Seeing the hard life over there made me grateful for what I have," she said.
Tracy Werick is a junior at City Honors.

Fairfield horseshoe
Fairfield Horseshoe is a classic circular hillwalking ridge walk route starting from Rydal or Ambleside in the English Lake District that takes in all the fells that surround the valley of the Rydal Beck.
The walk is extremely popular and follows well defined paths throughout with no real difficulties; however, care should be taken on the summit of Fairfield in poor visibility as the plateau of that mountain is very flat and can be quite confusing with the danger of steep drops to the north and west. The eastern side of the horseshoe from Low Sweden Bridge near Ambleside to the slopes of Hart Crag follows a high dry stone wall for six kilometres, making navigation simple even in poor weather conditions.
There is a Fairfield Horseshoe Fell Race, which takes place annually in May, first organised by the Lake District Mountain Trial Association in 1966. This fell race is over 14 kilometres long with over 900 metres of ascent. The course record was set by Mark Roberts in 2000 with a time of 75 minutes 11 seconds.
The horseshoe walk is a 16 kilometre journey with 1100 metres of ascent and includes the peaks of:
- Low Pike (508 metres)
- High Pike (656 metres)
- Dove Crag (792 metres)
- Hart Crag (822 metres)
- Fairfield (873 metres)
- Great Rigg (766 metres)
- Heron Pike (612 metres)
- Nab Scar (440 metres)

About our Curriculum
The Augustana Core
Our Faculty's commitment to the liberal arts and sciences orients our programs toward a broad education realized through engagement, knowledge, and skills.
View a video about the advantages of the Augustana core
At Augustana, students integrate their learning with the complexities of local and global communities, both in the classroom and in the world. To achieve this degree of social and political engagement, Augustana students are required to take courses in 3 of the following 5 areas:
- Integrating Knowledge
- Environmental Sustainability
- Diversity & Global Studies
- Experiential Learning
- Creative & Imaginative Process
Engagement credit requirements…
At Augustana, we embrace a liberal arts and sciences education that embodies many different ways of knowing. The ability to use a range of approaches to solve problems enables citizens to face the complexities of society with flexibility and innovation. Students achieve this breadth of knowledge by taking courses in each of the following areas:
- Fine Arts,
- Humanities,
- Social Sciences, and
- Science.
Knowledge credit requirements…
At Augustana, students acquire core academic skills through their major. These skills are the mark of a successful education and the very basis for continued learning. Therefore, Augustana deliberately sets for itself the goal that, upon graduation, all students will be equipped with a skill set of which they can be justifiably proud. Students find these skills possess immense practical value, enabling our graduates to make meaningful contributions to their communities and workplaces.
Augustana students are thinkers, researchers, and communicators.
Credit Requirements
Augustana's Core consists of 36 cr in total. A single course may not fulfill more than one part of the Core in a student's program of studies.
15 cr from the three of the following five categories with no more than 6 cr in any one category. Courses that satisfy the Engagement requirement may overlap with a student's major. Specific courses for each area can be found in Augustana's Chart 1 in the University of Alberta Calendar.
- Integrating Knowledge: These courses focus on learning across disciplines. Among other things, students gain an understanding of modes of inquiry in different disciplines.
- Environmental Sustainability: These courses foster greater understanding and critical assessment of the relationship among environment, resources, and society. The interdisciplinary nature of this category allows the students to integrate knowledge to develop complex solutions to multifaceted problems.
- Diversity & Global Studies: In these courses students learn how to understand and function creatively within our diverse, complex and rapidly changing world and, not least, to contribute to a sustainable planetary future.
- Experiential Learning: These courses speak to the practical application of a Liberal Arts education as students take their learning out into the world beyond the academy.
- Creative & Imaginative Process: In these courses students participate in active learning that experientially engages some practice of artistic expression. In this category students are expected to be practitioners and not merely spectators.

The charity that the Net54 Vintage Baseball Card Forum board members have chosen is The Painted Turtle, an innovative camp and family care center for children with life-threatening illnesses. Founded in 1999 by Paul Newman and Page Adler, The Painted Turtle provides a life-changing experience to children whose daily struggles often diminish both their desire to be well and their ability to lead a rich, productive life. It seems most fitting to us that a shared interest in collecting baseball cards, which were intended to bring joy to children long ago, should play a role in contributing to the well being of children today who have to deal with the most serious hardships that life can offer to them and their families. This project was conceived, organized, and executed by the vintage card collectors of the Net54 Vintage Baseball Card Forum. It is an honor for REA to contribute our services to this project, and to help execute the vision of the generous collectors who have donated their time, effort, and material to such a worthy charitable cause. We hope this will be the first of many similar auctions, in which, working together, collectors with an extra card here, or duplicate there, can make a difference. Our hats are off to Kyle Bicking, who originated this auction concept, communicated with everyone involved, collected all the items from collectors, and, in short, really "made it happen." Our hats are also off to the following generous collectors, each of whom went out of his or her way to contribute valuable cards to help create an exciting auction lot: Dan Bretta, Darren Magness, Tom Hines, Mike Ellis, Jay Miller, Robert Adesso, Bruce MacPherson, Bruce Babcock, Dave Faust, Barry Sloate, Kyle Bicking, Michael Sarno, Leon Luckey, Jim Loewke, Jim Blumenthal, Alan Sassoon, Pete Ullman, and Joann Kline. Whoever wins this lot, the one thing that is certain is that all of the proceeds will go toward making the lives of seriously ill children a little brighter, and maybe a little bit healthier. For some of these children, The Painted Turtle will provide the greatest and most joyous time of their lives. The contributors from Net54 have done their part. To every bidder on this lot, whether you are the final winner or not, you are making an equally significant contribution. The Painted Turtle and the children whose lives they enrich give thanks to the contributing members of Net54 and all bidders for your generosity.Reserve $500. Estimate (open).
The Painted Turtle is a U.S. 501(c) (3) tax-exempt organization.

Poetry Workshop
advice, gentlemen,
is to consider the moon gently,
and at great emotional distance.
a mad goddess lover,
and won't let you go.
Rick Webster arrives at the mike for a reading, there's
a perceptible shift of attention on the part of the audience
- an anticipation that its going to hear something special,
not knowing quite what to expect. At first glance at your
website, it seems you are very drawn to the elements,
with very tactile word-images, of light, every day occurrences
that touch the senses and are seen in a different way
.... and then there's your series 139 Poems of the Moon.
Really, 139?
Yeah, 139 was just a number I pulled out of the air. Then
that entire series just completely took over my life and,
after a while, it wasn't fun anymore. So the moon poems
are on hold, and probably permanently so, although I must
admit - I do find myself still checking in with Her Evening
Majesty every couple of days.
The recent 'big' full moon in early May must have been
The full moon always has my attention. She's always irresistible.
What triggered your journey into poetry?
I'm not sure, exactly. I discovered Ogden Nash when I
was about nine and memorized one his poems. I still have
it in my head. A creative writing exercise in grade six
taught me that I could write poems. I sat at my desk and
churned out five or six of them while everyone else was
trying to write their first line. I remember finding Leonard
Cohen's 'The Energy of Slaves' when I was about twelve
or thirteen. I didn't understand it, but just felt sucked
into the book. It was pretty much ball game over at that
How has your poetry evolved?
I have no idea. Really, no clue. Every once in a while
I'll come across something I wrote in high school and
wonder if I'm writing anything that good today.
Have there been any particular influences?
Honestly? The biggest influence in my writing my have
been the King James Bible. I grew up reading or, more
importantly I suppose, hearing it read. I'm not sure it's
been an entirely good influence. The poems I trash - which
is most of them - get the bin because they sound preachy,
or heavy handed. Rumi was the first poet that really took
my breath away. What's had the most immediate influence
in my writing has been the workshop sessions in Cobourg.
Which, coming almost full circle, led to the recent
Word*Up series in Peterborough, for which you've been
described as the engine that propels it. How did Word*Up
come about?
Word*UP came about after being at a reading in Port Hope
put on by the CPW. As we were driving home a buddy and
I were talking about how great it would be to have something
similar in Peterborough. We looked at each other and said,
"How difficult could it be?" Ha! Little did
we know!
So, what is 'poetry' today? We have the traditional,
academic poetry, Spoken Word, Slam, performance, prose
poetry ... the word covers huge territory.
I have no idea what poetry is. No clue. My guess is that
it's all of those things you mentioned, and maybe none
of them. Maybe whenever anyone speaks with courage about
the beauty and pain of being human - maybe that's poetry,
whatever form it takes.
And Rick Webster takes it another step forward, as
you did recently at a reading in Cobourg, of blending
your words with music with Paper Beat Scissors (which
can be viewed on YouTube) ... With that kind of reading/performance,
is the poem well rehearsed, or is a combination of the
written-word and then where your instincts take you, a
more spontaneous occurrence, both for you and for the
In that video Tim just laid down some music and I closed
my eyes and listened for a second. The first thing that
came to mind was "forest says enter" and I just
went from there. It absolutely was not rehearsed, nor
should it be. It's the risk that gives it power, it's
the risk that makes it worth doing. And, frankly, I'd
like to do a lot more of it.
With prose poetry, what determines the crossover point
... when does prose becomes poetry?
I have no clue. No idea. My guess is that's it's point
of view. If the reader can identify a point of view other
than their own than it ceases to be poetry. For it to
be poetry I think the listener or reader has to feel like
the poet is describing their own heart. The reader has
to feel like it's their point of view, like the poem is
coming from inside of them. And maybe we don't have to
bridge the gap between prose and poetry. Maybe it's okay
to say, hey, I'm a poet, but I wrote this bit of prose
here. Maybe that should be okay, too.
What sort of process do you go through, from the initial
idea to it's completion (if they are ever really 'completed')
when creating a poem?
I sit down at the keyboard, close my eyes and write. Turn
all the filters off. Whatever comes out comes out. The
rest is editing, chopping and hacking through the undergrowth,
trying to see if there's a path there. That's pretty much
Do you have a specific audience in mind when constructing
a poem? A live audience for the poem to be heard, or for
it to be on the printed page or, as you do as well, to
be read on your website?
I write just because I have to write. That's about it,
really. Don't think of it much more than that.
Are websites the new chapbooks?
No. Yes. I don't know. Maybe. My guess is that they're
two very different things; two very different experiences.
I'm in favor of anything that gives a poet a voice and
a place in a community of like-minded souls.

Among all the firings of coaches and general managers around the league last week, there were three I thought were noteworthy regarding their success against the Titans. Those three are former Chargers general manager A.J. Smith and coach Norv Turner and former Bears coach Lovie Smith.
As we painfully recall, the Chargers and Bears each humiliated the Titans in 2012, by scores of 38-10 and 51-20, but the three men who are the focus of this article have enjoyed success against the Titans far beyond this past season. We'll look at their careers versus the Titans, after the jump.

ORANGE — Pay cuts and furloughs have been the norm in municipal governments across the Garden State, but apparently not in Orange.
Mayor Dwayne Warren and his administration allege that the former mayor doled out "improper" salary bonuses and now the city is trying to recoup those payouts.
They aren't saying how much, but acting city attorney Dan Smith said the administration is acting swiftly.
"Any improper bonuses are being aggressively pursued by the administration," he said. "We've already begun the process."
During last week's council meeting, West Ward Councilman Hassan Abdul-Rasheed said that several department directors received bonuses under former Mayor Eldridge Hawkins Jr. Hawkins sought a second mayoral term in May but lost the election to Warren in a hotly contested campaign. Warren took over on July 1.
"I've heard of bonuses in the corporate world, but not in municipal government," Abdul-Rasheed said.
Acting finance director Adrian Mapp confirmed that the city is investigating the payouts.
"Funds we believe were paid and should not have been," he told the council.
Hawkins called the investigation "ridiculous."
He defended the payments, saying they were not "bonuses" but legitimate payouts of either accumulated vacation or sick time that the employees were entitled to when their employment ceased.
The amounts may have been larger than some folks anticipated, Hawkins said, because he made a common practice of "forbidding" department directors from taking vacation days at times.
For instance, Hawkins said he required former police director John Rappaport's attendance everyday for his first year as mayor in a concerted effort to crack down on crime. Since Hawkins left office, eight out of 10 city departments have been assigned new directors. They are currently filling acting roles until approved by the city council.
"Everyone knows I ran (the city) with an iron fist and the directors were no exception," Hawkins said when reached by phone last week. Rappaport could not be reached for comment and attempts to reach other former directors were unsuccessful.
Labeling the payments as "bonuses" is "a severe mischaracterization of the facts," Hawkins said.
"There's no such thing as bonuses," he added. "It just doesn't exist."
Warren said he did not know how many people received the payouts but says its a major concern.
He vowed to go after the payments — though he said he does not know how much it would amount to.
"In our tight times, if a dime is paid improperly we'll go after it," Warren said.
"Any notion that they can recoup it is ridiculous," Hawkins retorted. "It was signed off by the finance director."

DOTHAN, Alabama — Dothan police say a man is charged with taking pictures of children in the restroom at a Walmart store.
Police say they arrested 34-year-old Steven Wallace Davidson Jr. and charged him with the production of child pornography.
Houston County District Court Judge Benjamin Lewis set the bail for Davidson at $1 million on Wednesday.
Davidson has been at the Houston County Jail since his arrest on July 18.
Dothan Police Sgt. Doug Magill says some pictures were taken while Davidson worked at Walmart.
Attorney Eric Davis, who represents Davidson, says his client is not a flight risk because his family lives in Dothan.

Hospice care is a model of quality palliative care that focuses on caring for the terminally-ill patient rather than curing the underlying illness by developing and delivering a treatment plan that meets the individual's wishes and needs, and that includes medical care, pain management, and emotional and spiritual support. The philosophy behind hospice care is that everyone has the right to die pain-free and with dignity, a feat that is possible thanks to the joined efforts of an interdisciplinary team of professionals that involves the patient's personal physician, a hospice physician, nurses and aides, social workers, spiritual and bereavement counselors, therapists and volunteers available around the clock to assist and comfort patient and family members alike.
According to the statistics collected by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization:

Take It SlowA kitten may feel overwhelmed by its new environment at first, so consider things from a cat's point of view. "It's important for people to realize that cats are cats, not little dogs or fur-covered people," Milani said. "Cats have their own needs. The more people understand normal cat behavior, the more they can appreciate them."Patience lots of it is key. Introduce your kitten to new pets slowly, said Karen Commings, author of "The Cat Lover's Survival Guide," a professional pet sitter and owner of Pet Care Extraordinaire in Harrisburg, Pa. "Throwing pets together too soon may result in the development of bad relationships, and then you have to start over."Commings described a unique way to introduce kittens, a process that worked well when she recently brought two kittens into her multi-cat household: "My advice is to talk to them talk to the resident animals about the newcomers, using their names often, and talk to the newcomers about the residents. When talking, visually picture the residents and the newcomers. When they meet, use their names again. Allow them to sniff, hiss or spit as long as no one is hurt. Pick set times when the newcomers are allowed to intermix, then separate them again. Gradually increase their time together."A safe zone away from other pets and children is essential for a new kitten during this adjustment period, such as a well-ventilated room stocked with a litterbox, a comfy place to sleep, clean water and food. In addition, Milani recommends free-access crate training, which means the kitten accepts a carrier as its own, always-available haven. "From day one, they have their little house, big enough for a small litterbox, the kitten, a blanket and a little toy." An easy-to-clean, small plastic or fiberglass carrier works well.
"I recommend free-access crate-training for kittens for several reasons," Milani said. "First, as with any animal, establishing and protecting territory is the No. 1 priority. Giving kittens access to their own personal space eliminates many problems that occur when new cats are introduced. Second, when children are in the household I find it's easier to say to kids, "Don't bother Fluffy when she goes in her house," than to say, "Don't bother the cat when she's got that look."

A crash has closed a portion of Hwy 20 in Mount Pleasant.
Police said Highway 20 was closed in both directions near County Road V because of the crash.
Matt Salemme in NewsChopper 12 reports that as of 9:50 a.m., eastbound lanes were opened to traffic. Westbound lanes were opened just after 11 a.m.
Mount Pleasant police said a 59-year-old man was driving an SUV that struck a asphalt contractor truck that was slowing down due to heavy traffic.
Sgt. Eric Relich said the driver had significant injuries to his lower body, and was transported from the scene by Flight For Life to a Milwaukee hospital.
Relich said that while the man's injuries were severe, they were not expected to be life-threatening.

Mike Catapano had an interesting, no-lose decision to make coming out of high school in Bayville, N.Y. Should he try to live his dream of playing in the NFL, or choose a college better known for producing Wall Street executives than 3-4 linebackers — a school like Princeton University.
He decided to do both.
"Why couldn't I do both," Catapano said recently, following a college football career at Princeton that has him projected as a mid-to-late round pick in next week's NFL Draft.
"I've always been ambitious. It was hard to say no to a school like Princeton. So I decided why not try to do both, go to Princeton and still try to make it in the NFL."
He just might. In the process, he could buck the long — but not impossible — odds of going from one of the best schools in the country to the best football league in country.
In Princeton's storied football history, the Tigers have had 33 players play at least one game in the NFL, including 10 since 1980. Only nine Princeton players have been drafted, however. The last was offensive lineman Dennis Norman, who went in the seventh round to Seattle in 2001 and played his final season with San Diego in 2009.
The earliest a player was ever drafted out of Princeton was in the sixth round, where Kansas City selected Bob Hews in 1970. Hews did not make the Chiefs' roster and played two games with Buffalo before his career ended.
Princeton's most famous player of recent note is current Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett, an undrafted free agent who played seven years with the Cowboys and three with the Giants.
Different draft sites have projected the 6-3½, 271-pound Catapano, a defensive end, as anything from a fifth- to a seventh-round pick. Gill Brandt, the one-time Cowboys general manager during the Tom Landry years, thinks Catapano could go as high as the fourth round.
"I've been getting a lot of good feedback, from everyone," Catapano said. "Now, it's just waiting to see what happens."
Catapano has measurables the NFL likes. He has good size for an end in a 4-3 defense and decent enough speed (4.75) and athletic ability to play outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme.
His arms are 33¾ inches, longer than average for his positions, and his hands are 103/8 inches, also bigger than average. At his Pro Day at Princeton, he showed excellent strength in doing 33 reps on the weights.
His performance the week before the East/West Shrine Game, as he constantly beat offensive linemen, first put him on the NFL's radar. He followed that with impressive showings in front of NFL scouts at both his Pro Day and in individual workouts for several teams.
Minnesota, New Orleans, Cincinnati, Green Bay, Tampa Bay and the Eagles have shown the most interest. The Packers and Eagles like him as an outside linebacker, a transition the former high school running back thinks he can make.
"They were telling me that I showed good instincts as an outside linebacker," Catapano said. "They liked the way I was able to drop back and cover."
Some of that skill comes from his high school days as a 215-pound running back in Bayville, the same Long Island town that produced NCAA champion basketball coach Rick Pitino.
"A lot of schools looked at me as a running back," he said. "Give Princeton credit for looking at me as a defensive player. I guess the coaches there knew something."
Catapano didn't do much as a freshman except get banged around to the point that he got knocked out of action. As he got bigger, he got better and became the Ivy League's Defensive Player of the Year this past fall when he recorded 91 tackles, 15½ for a loss, and a league-leading 12 sacks.
Next month he will graduate from Princeton with a degree in psychology. Before that he has a chance to make another dream come true — the NFL.
"It's getting exciting," he said. "It's been a long road. I've been living it and breathing it every day as it gets closer and closer."

Mandeville resident Andrew Worrel feels guilty taking a hot shower. During a recent trip to St. Benoit Parish in Dessources, Haiti, Worrel had running water to wash his hands, but no real means of bathing - except for a cup with water. Showers, he said, are a luxury most Americans take for granted.
The 24-year-old recently spent three weeks at St. Benoit Parish, a rural church tucked into the Haiti's mountains. St Benoit is the sister parish of Mary, Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Mandeville, where Worrel and his family are longtime parishioners.
Mary, Queen of Peace partnered with St. Benoit in 2011 and has helped it with various construction projects to rebuild the church roof and classrooms that were damaged during Haiti's devastating earthquake on Jan. 12. It also has contributed money for a lunch program for St. Benoit's 400-student school, for salaries for its 11 teachers and more.
Worrel, who graduated from Louisiana State University in December, 2011, with a degree in kinesiology, first visited St. Benoit as part of a five-member mission team that traveled to Haiti in February to learn more about their sister parish and bring basic necessities such as medical and school supplies.
This trip was different, he said, because he got to know the people there on a deeper level and understand how they live. He saw how caring they are and how much they appreciate the help Mary, Queen of Peace has provided.
"The people there all care about helping their own community and helping others with any additional money they have," he said.
But money is difficult to come by. When it comes to cash, Worrel said, St. Benoit's people don't make a lot of the items they can sell at the weekly market. Most families plant beans and corn and sell what's left after feeding themselves. They also will save enough money to purchase a goat or cow, feed it and then bring it to market at some point.
"They are definitely a poor community, and they have so many needs it's not even funny," Worrel said. "They are trying to help themselves, but they don't really have the means to do so."
Worrel, who slept at St. Benoit's rectory with other visitors to the parish, spent his days teaching some English to the fifth- and sixth-graders who are part of St. Benoit's 400-student school.
St. Benoit's school day begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 1 p.m. so students and teachers still have time to go home and tend to their farms or walk to get water for cooking and cleaning. Worrel said a variety of subjects are taught during that short span of time, including French, which is considered the educated language in Haiti. Most Haitians speak Creole.
Sixth grade is the highest level of schooling St. Benoit provides. After that, students must pass a test to go to secondary school. But attending secondary school is expensive and means that students must travel far from home. Many are located in Port au Prince, Haiti's capitol, which is a five-hour drive from St. Benoit.
Worrel also helped with the construction of the construction of a school kitchen, which will replace the outdoor stove school workers are using to cook lunch. The kitchen is being paid for with funds donated by Mary, Queen of Peace parishioners.
"One thing that really touched me is that they really do appreciate us helping them," Worrel said. "We need to continue to foster the relationship we have with St. Benoit."
Worrel's trip was one of the ways the Mandeville church is continuing to deepen its partnership with St. Benoit through its Haiti Solidarity Partnership Ministry.
The ministry also is hosting "A Night in Haiti" from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Jan. 12 to thank parishioners and the community for their support of St. Benoit and to bring a sense of what life is like in Haiti closer to home.
"Because they live with such basic necessities, I hope that we would appreciate what we have in America and want to help them," Worrel said. "I will continue to help out because I've seen them and I know them."
The cost of "A Night in Haiti," which will be held in the Mary, Queen of Peace School cafeteria, per person is $25.
Tickets can be purchased in the Parish Center at 1501 W. Causeway Approach, Mandeville.

After a two-day extension, Sunday evening was the official deadline to pull boats from their slips on Folsom Lake.
Watch report: Deadline arrives for people to pull boats from Folsom Lake
The drought has resulted in low water levels, but slip renters got more time than some expected this season.
Marina operators said the water is approaching the 412-foot elevation level.
"When the lake gets to 412, we only have 6 feet under those docks and some of these boats draw 5 feet of 6 feet of water," said Julie Christensen, assistant marina manager. "We like to get them all out at the same time and leave a bit of cushion."
There are typically 650 boats in the slips along Brown's Ravine at Folsom Lake.
Despite closing the slips, the boating season on the lake will likely continue through mid-July, depending on the water level.

Thanks to an anonymous donation, the reward for information about a threat to Jaffrey's Festival of Fireworks has been raised to $5,000.
The annual fireworks were canceled last summer after a threat of violence.
Earlier this month the town's Chamber of Commerce announced the permanent cancellation of the event.

A federal judge has temporarily blocked a new Alabama immigration law to allow more time to determine if it is constitutional.
"In entering this order the court specifically notes that it is in no way addressing the merits of the motions," U.S. District Judge Sharon L. Blackburn wrote.
The measure, which had been scheduled to take effect Thursday, would require schools to verify whether students are citizens among other standards.
The law is considered the nation's toughest against illegal immigration.
Opponents were pleased with the court's decision to stay the law they've likened to Jim Crow-era statutes against racial integration.
Fans of the measure were just happy the court didn't gut the legislation.
"We must remember that today's ruling is simply the first round in what promises to be a long judicial fight over Alabama's right to protect its borders," Alabama House Majority Leader Micky Hammon said.
"To put it in sports terms, it is the first half-inning of the first game of a seven-game World Series," he added.
The judge said she will rule on the issue by Sept. 28.

John Dudley's Week 13 NFL Power Rankings
1. Texans (11-1, Last week: 1): After struggling a little in back-to-back overtime wins against the lowly Jaguars and Lions, the Texans were much more impressive in Sunday's solid 24-10 victory over Tennessee. They appear to be headed in the right direction going into this week's showdown in New England on Monday night, a matchup that will have a strong playoff feel.
2. Falcons (11-1, 2): Michael Turner had his best game in five weeks in Thursday's 23-13 victory over the Saints, a 12-carry, 83-yard, 1-TD performance that should reassure Falcons fans that their team can still run the ball as the postseason approaches.
3. Broncos (9-3, 5): On the long list of feats accomplished by Peyton Manning this season, add this -- turning Demaryius Thomas into a consistent, Pro Bowl-caliber receiver. Oh, and leading the Broncos to the AFC West title. In Week 13.
4. Patriots (9-3, 7): If the Patriots appeared slightly disinterested Sunday in a workmanlike 23-16 win in Miami, it could be because they have big upcoming home games against the Texans and 49ers. Gotta rest up.
5. Colts (8-4, 9): If you're waiting for the Colts to lose focus and drop a stinker to a lesser opponent, as they did in losing to the Jets and Jaguars earlier this season, it just doesn't look like it's going to happen again. Andrew Luck padded the legend column on his resume Sunday by leading an impossible road comeback to beat the Lions.
6. 49ers (8-3-1, 3): Depending on your point of view, coach Jim Harbaugh is either handling his quarterback situation brilliantly by going with the guy with the hot hand, or he's setting his team up to go into the playoffs with two guys who are struggling at the most important position in football.
7. Ravens (9-3, 4): You know exactly what was on the mind of every shellshocked Ravens fan, player and coach as they left M&T Bank Stadium following Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Steelers -- Charlie ... Friggin' ... Batch?
8. Packers (8-4, 10): OK, so it's been established that the Packers can't stop the run, as Adrian Peterson showed by rushing for 210 yards against them Sunday. The good news for Green Bay is that the Vikings and AP don't appear headed for the playoffs, so they've got that going for them.
9. Steelers (7-5, 11): The Steelers' mindset has long been pretty simple: "Doubt us at your own peril, but get ready to strap it up on Sunday." Just try to find a grittier win by a down-and-out team this season than Sunday's three-point upset of the Ravens on the road. Keep looking.
10. Seahawks (7-5, 12): Maybe it's been a blessing for Russell Wilson that he's been able to develop largely in the shadow of fellow rookie star quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III. It's also a blessing to have one of the league's best defenses on your sideline.
11. Redskins (6-6, 16): Robert Griffin III is making it a very interesting race for offensive rookie of year, not to mention putting the Redskins in the thick of the NFC playoff picture.
12. Giants (7-5, 8): We've seen this hot-and-cold trend before from the Giants, who really cranked it up last week in pounding the Packers but couldn't put together much offense at all against the Redskins on Monday night.
13. Bears (8-4, 6): The Bears own only one win over a winning team, and that came in the opener against the Colts with Andrew Luck making his NFL debut. There's a definite trend of beating up on also-rans and stumbling against quality opponents. Not a good sign.
14. Bengals (7-5, 18): Cincy is allowing 10.5 points per game during its current four-game winning streak and goes into the regular season's final quarter ranked eighth overall defensively. That's one reason to believe the Bengals have a chance in two tough closing games against the Ravens and Steelers.
15. Cowboys (6-6, 19): Further proof that stats only mean so much: Tony Romo, with one career playoff win in seven seasons as a starter, just broke the franchise record for passing touchdowns previously held by Troy Aikman, who went 11-5 in the postseason with three Super Bowl titles.
16. Saints (5-7, 13): What briefly had taken on the look of a feel-good turnaround by the Saints has quickly spiraled back into a lost season.
17. Buccaneers (6-6, 14): Doug Martin cooled off considerably the past two weeks, managing only 50 and 56 yards, respectively, in losses to the Falcons and Broncos. After scoring four touchdowns in his blowup game against the Raiders, he's reached the end zone only twice the past three weeks. As he's gone, so have the Bucs gone.
18. Vikings (6-6, 15): It's beginning to look like Adrian Peterson's remarkable comeback from offseason knee surgery to a likely league rushing title will be the only thing to celebrate in Minnesota this winter.
19. Dolphins (5-7, 17): Bad got worse Monday when the Dolphins learned that tackle Jake Long, injured in Sunday's loss to the Patriots, might be lost for the season.
20. Browns (4-8, 22): Rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden reached another milestone Sunday by leading the Browns to a road win. Baby steps, which is exactly what the Browns need to be willing to take at this point.
21. Rams (5-6-1, 23): The Rams have figured out how to get excited to play the 49ers. It's the rest of the league they need to work on now.
22. Bills (5-7, 25): With two wins in three weeks and a resurgent defense and running game, the Bills are whispering about a playoff run. It's a long shot, especially with the improving Rams and tough Seahawks rolling into Buffalo the next two weeks.
23. Jets (5-7, 26): Give Rex Ryan credit for recognizing that Alabama karma was working last weekend, so replacing struggling QB Mark Sanchez with former Crimson Tide star Greg McElroy was the perfect move to pull out an ugly win against the Cardinals.
24. Titans (4-8, 20): After a solid game in his comeback start from an injury three weeks ago, Jake Locker has really regressed. His totals from losses to the Jaguars and Texans the past two weeks: two TDs, five interceptions.
25. Lions (4-8, 21): The 2012 Detroit Lions can be summed up perfectly by the final three minutes Sunday against the Colts, when Andrew Luck threw two TD passes to turn a 12-point Lions lead into a 35-33 loss. Detroit has lost three straight home games in which they held fourth-quarter leads.
26. Chargers (4-8, 24): The Chargers might stink, but don't accuse them of lacking self-awareness. After they went scoreless for the final two quarters of Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Bengals, fullback Le'Ron McClain told reporters: "We were flat as hell in the second half."
27. Panthers (3-9, 27): Overshadowed -- and understandably so -- by a loss to the Chiefs on a very emotional day in Kansas City was another strong performance by Cam Newton, who threw three TD passes and has six TDs and no picks in his past three games.
28. Raiders (3-9, 28): Make it 10 straight non-winning seasons for the once-proud Raiders after Sunday's home loss to Cleveland.
29. Jaguars (2-10, 29): The way they looked Sunday against the Bills, the Jaguars are much more than an easy fix or two away from contention. Getting Maurice Jones-Drew back would only begin to help.
30. Cardinals (4-8, 30): Not only are the Cardinals terrible, but Larry Fitzgerald is a below-average receiver (five catches for 65 yards in his past three games) with starting QB Kevin Kolb sidelined with a rib injury.
31. Chiefs (2-10, 32): Brave effort Sunday by the Chiefs, who had to be admired simply for summoning the courage to play, much less win.
32. Eagles (3-9, 31): Rookie QB Nick Foles will finish out the season as the starter, likely marking the end of Michael Vick's tumultuous run in Philly.

By James Anyanzwa
NAIROBI, KENYA: One of the most high-profile scandals to hit headlines is insider trading accusation against former Kenya Commercial Bank Managing Director, Terry Dividson and Benard Mwangi Kibaru, former Uchumi General Manager.
The unsuccessful case of the two has been a reminder of the importance of ensuring that insiders with privileged access to non-public information play by the rules.
"Insider trading is bad for everyone – investors, businesses, the country," says Hussein Ali, an investor who closely follows activities at the Nairobi Securities Exchange.
"From a company's perspective, the business suffers in the sense that people lose respect for their management team, and the company starts losing investors."
Court cases
While the country's securities regulators and courts see only a few cases of insider trading cases each year, there is growing uneasiness that the vice is thriving, but undetected by the regulators.
For starters, the Capital Markets Authority cannot just rely on the country's laws.
They need to encourage companies embrace insider trading policy – something that most large companies have but is still missing in many publicly traded companies.
A proposal by the National Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich to amend the Capital Markets Act, with a view of reining in on insider traders is a welcome move.
In his first budget statement on Thursday, Mr Rotich acknowledged that insider trading and market manipulation has continued to threaten to the stability and growth of capital markets.
He underscored the need to amend the Capital Markets Act and redefine the offence of insider trading, as an offense of 'strict liability.'
