This invention relates to a method and apparatus for performing corrective techniques on the eye and more particularly to a system, for use with a surgical microscope, for viewing the eye while performing corrective techniques and at the same time displaying comparative images of indicia related to the present shape of the eye and a predetermined eye shape.
Present systems for viewing the eye during surgical techniques involve the use of a surgical microscope for real time viewing and usually, intermittent keratometer measurements before, during and after surgery. This procedure is not only slow and thus time consuming, its accuracy is minimal in that equipment must be moved into and out of the surgical field with each usage. In additional this procedure must take into account the sterile atmosphere of the surgical location and the constant interfacing of measuring equipment with the sterile field. Such a surgical technique might typically follow the pattern of preoperative quantitative keratometer measurement is made to determine what effect the operative procedure has had on the eye. Next suturing is often performed to close incisions in the eye and post-operative keratometer readings are taken to determine the condition of the sutured eye. Each keratometer reading involves the replacement of instrumentation within the surgical field and in precise position with respect to the eye. The preciseness of repositioning of such instrumentation will of course have an effect on the quantitive accuracy of the comparative readings. Additionally present keratometers measure approximately only a 3 mm chord across the center of the eye. The corrective technique of concern in this application more often deals with distortions on the corneal surface between the 2 to 12 mm chords.
An improvement on the above described technique is suggested by mounting a quantitative keratometer on a surgical microscope. The Troutman keratometer exemplifies this manner of treating the problem. The Troutman device is described at pages 28 to 32 of Microsurgery of the Anterior Segment of the Eye Vol. II, C. V. Mosby Company, 1977. The Troutman keratometer is characterized by a twelve point light source mounted in a ring about the microscope body. Light is projected to twelve points on the cornea. A keratometer reticle is fitted to the eye piece for the surgeons nondominant eye. It has two concentric circles for reference to the keratometer projection, and split cross hairs to align sutures and mark an astigmatic axis. The Troutman keratometer is a qualitative measuring instrument with a function very different from that of a keratoscope, which is designed for measuring corneal topography. The Troutman keratometer on the other hand is designed specifically to aid the surgeon in the interpretation and correction of meridianal corneal errors. It approximates the powers of astigmatic bands by offering a comparison of reticle circles to an oval reflection of the projected light ring. Interpretation of the projection is a qualitative matter depending on the experience of the surgeon. Keratometer mire patterns are so distorted in the early postoperative course as to be of little value in making determinations concerning refraction. Thus, no present technique or system is available to facilitate accurate determination of corneal topography in a real time intraoperative situation. Also lacking is a system offering a conveniently usable comparison of real time intrasurgical data with cursor indicia indicative of a predetermined or preoperative condition.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved method and apparatus for providing simultaneously on a convenient viewing surface, real time quantitative data relating to the present corneal topography, and predetermined data relating to a preoperative condition or desired corneal surface condition, with such system being arranged for use intraoperatively in conjunction with a surgical microscope.
With this and other objects in view the present invention contemplates a quantitative keratoscope system for use with a surgical microscope in performing corrective techniques on the eye. Partial segments to placido rings are reflected off of the eye in a meridianal pattern of mires. Cursor lines are capable of being generated and projected simultaneously on a viewing surface, with such cursor lines corresponding to known or predetermined radii of curvature of a spherical surface, these cursor lines may be moved laterally with respect to one another to vary their pattern in accordance with an infinite variety of radii of curvature within the range of corneal curvatures. The group of cursor lines may be moved along the X-Y coordinates of the viewing surface to bring them into coincidence with a real time image of the indicia representing the present corneal topographic condition. The mires may be observed on the corneal surface by the operating physician and assistants as well as be projected onto a separate viewing surface. The equipment for reflecting mires from the corneal surface may be conveniently moved to a stowed position to allow more freedom of movement in the surgical field, and then returned to its operative position without changing the positional relationship of the keratoscope, microscope, and object corneal surface. A focusing mark on the viewing surface and in the microscope image provides a check of this positional relationship.
Another aspect of this invention relates to a surgical technique whereby a preoperative quantitative kerstoscope reading is taken with the surgical microscope in its operative position. The preoperative image of mires on the corneal surface may be recorded by bringing the cursors into coincidence with the mires and reading out digitally on the viewing surface an indication of the radius of curvacture corresponding to the mires. The housing for projecting the mire to be reflected from the corneal surface may then be moved to a stowed position within the surgical field but out of the surgeons way to permit freedom of movement within the surgical field during the operation. At any time during the operation, such as during suturing, the mires projection housing may be returned to its exact same position in the surgical field for providing a real time image of mires on the present corneal surfaces. Cursor lines or other indicia corresponding to the preoperation corneal conditions may then be superimposed on the viewing surface to provide an indication of the preoperative curvature of the corneal surface. A comparison of the preoperative curvature with the present condition permits adjustment of the sutures until the preoperative condition or an otherwise desired condition is attained, whereupon the sutures are fixed.
In still another aspect of the invention, the relative position of real time mires and predetermined or desired cursor lines can be used to compute a refractively corrected corneal surface configuration, and read out such computation. The cursor lines may then be set to correspond to such computed configuration. A ring is then implanted in the corneal surface with its diameter being adjusted until the real time image and computed image are in coincidence, at which time the ring diameter is fixed.
In yet another aspect of the invention, the meridianal orientation of the projected mires may be conveniently moved in a horizontally arcuate path to incrementally provide full viewing coverage of the corneal surface.
FIG. 1 is an elevational schematic view of a quantitative keratometer and corneascope mounted on a surgical microscope;
FIG. 2 is a bottom view of a portion of the apparatus of FIG. 1 taken along line 2--2 of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is a schematic view of a viewing surface for projecting data from the keratometer and corneascope, and showing indicia representing predetermined generated data for comparison with the real time data from the surgical corneascope and keratometer.
Referring first to FIG. 1 of the drawings, a surgical microscope 11 is shown having a main body portion 12 movably suspended from an arm 13, the arm is movably supported on the stand 14 (partially shown) which has provisions (not shown) for positioning the microscope by means of foot operated switches. This arrangement eliminates the need for persons working in the sterile surgical field to touch the microscope, at least a portion of which, is outside the sterile field. On the body 12 of the microscope are a plurality of viewing positions radially arranged about the body 12 and equipped with (in the present case) two operator viewing positions 16, and one video camera position 17. The operator positions 16 are provided with binocular eye pieces 21 to permit the surgeons viewing of the surgical field 18 beneath the microscope. TV camera 19 provides means for projecting the image viewed by the surgeon and/or assistants onto a remote viewing surface 22 mounted on a monitor 23. The monitor 23 is also provided with computer and signal generating means 25.
The body 12 of the microscope has a lower body portion 24 extending downwardly below the viewing positions 16 and camera position 17. The lower housing portion 24 includes the main optical system of the microscope. Arranged on the lower body portion 24 of the standard surgical microscope is a sleeve 26 which is mounted for rotational movement with respect to lower body portion 24. A motor unit 27 is arranged to drive the sleeve 26 in a rotational path about the lower portion 24. The motor unit 27 is mounted on lower housing portion 24 and has a gear 20 driven by the motor 27. The gear cooperatively engages an arcuate rack 15 on the outer peripheral surface of the sleeve 26. When the motor 27 is driven, the sleeve 26 is caused to rotate on body portion 24. A foot operated switch may be connected by suitable wiring means to permit operation of the motor unit 27.
A projection assembly 28 is mounted on the lower end of sleeve 26 and includes a pair of projection housing members 29 which are mounted for pivotal movement with respect to the sleeve 26 from an operative position as shown in FIG. 1 along a path shown by the dotted lines and arrows 31 to a stowed position against the lower body portion 24. Driven gears 32 connected to the housing member 29 are arranged to cooperatively engage a driving gear 33 and idler 30, mounted on the sleeve 26. A motor 34, also mounted on the sleeve 26 rotates the gears and idler, in response to a foot operated control device (not shown), to cause the housing members 29 to move between the operative and stowed positions described above. FIG. 1 also shows a spherical surface viewing object 36 positioned on a fixed surface 37 within the surgical field. A light source 51 is shown positioned on top of arm 13 of the surgical microscope. The light source can also be a source of light within the housing members 29 or, as shown in FIG. 1, can be remote to the housing 21 and utilize fiber optic bundle 52 to transmit light from the source 51 to the interior of the housing members 29.
FIG. 2 shows the bottom side of the housing members 29 and their cooperative relationship with the lower portion 24 of the microscope body 12. The gears 32 are connected to axle pins 41. Pins 41 are rotatably mounted within bearing arms 42 which in turn are connected to the sleeve 26. Pins 41 are formed on or are connected to the inner ends of housing member 29 and thus the housing members 29 are caused to rotate with the pins 41 and gears 32. The radially angular configuration of the side walls 53 of the housing members 29 describe approximately a sixty degree segment of a circle. Between the side walls 53 the lower surface 54 of the housing members is constructed of a translucent material such as Lucite, which is covered with an opaque material such as black paint. Evenly spaced arcuate lines 56 are inscribed into the painted surface 54 to leave a translucent surface beneath the lines 56. Thus the light delivered by the fiber optics bundle 52 or other light source to the interior of housing 29 is permitted to emanate through the lines 56. This in turn causes the projection of an arcuate pattern of light lines 58 (mires) which are reflected from the spherical surface 36. Also inscribed into the opaque surface 54 is a cross mark 55 which permits focusing of the mires on the viewing surface.
Referring now to FIG. 3 of the drawings, the monitor 23 is shown having a viewing surface 22 with indicia displayed thereon. The image of the mires 58 and cross mark 55 reflected from the spherical surface 36 is detected by the video camera 19 and transmitted to the viewing surface 22 by well known video transmission techniques. It is appreciated that any of the sequential images making up the video transmission can be recorded and stored for later reference. This may be done on video tape as well as by other more precise electronic data storage techniques. Such a stored image may be later projected onto the viewing surface either alone or compositely with another image such as a real time image. The cross mark 55 is also projected onto the viewing surface 22 to permit monitoring of the equipment focus on the surface 22. The computation and signal generating means 25 is comprised of electronic components, not described in detail here, for generating a pattern of straight lines or cursors 61 for projection onto the viewing surface 22. These lines may be arranged in various maridianal patterns such as the horizontal display depicted in FIG. 1 or in any one of various maridinal courses shown in FIG. 2. By means of computing components in the signal generator 25, these cursor lines may be varied in their spacing from one another to correspond to various radii of curvature of a spherical surface as projected onto the viewing surface 22 from a spherical object 36 on surface 37. For example, in order to calibrate the accuracy of the cursor image 61, a spherical ball of known diameter is placed on the surface 37. Light from source 51 is reflected from the surface 36 as mires 58 which in turn are displayed on the viewing surface 22. The cursor lines which may be moved relative to one another on the viewing surface 22 are moved by means of a radius of curvature adjustment control knob 62 until they are in alignment with the mires reflected from the object of known diameter. A digital readout 63 displays a value of the cursors for that discrete separation of lines. The readout number should correspond exactly with the known diameter of the sphere 36. If the reading is out of correspondence, an adjustment is made electronically in the signal generator and computation unit 25 to bring the read out into coincidence with the known dimension of the spherical surface 36. Control knobs 64 and 66 on the monitor 23 permit the entire field of cursors to be adjusted along X and Y coordinates respectively. This permits precise overlaying of the generated cursors 61 with the reflected mires 58 for comparing a known spherical dimension with the real time dimension shown by the mires.
FIG. 3 shows the mires being projected onto surface 22 in oppositely occuring sixty degree arcuate segments formed along a horizontal meridian. The motor 27 (FIG. 1) and rotatably arranged sleeve 26 provide a means for rotatably moving the projection members 29 in either direction in a horizontal plane as viewed in FIG. 1. Thus by moving the member 29 sixty degrees in both directions from that shown, the entire surface of the spherical object 36 may be scanned by the mires. This arrangement of segmented movable projection members permits the apparatus to be operated over a surgical field without impairing movement of the surgeon and assistants within the field and yet still offering the advantages afforded by the quantitative keratoscope projections.
The system described above may be used to perform keratoplasty and keratorefractive techniques for example, as follows: In a cataract operation, commonly the cataracts are removed successfully from the eye, however, refractive errors are induced as a result of asymmetry stemming from suture involvement in the cornea. The cataract incision may be tied too tightly at the time of surgery, producing with-the-rule astigmatism; or too loosely, producing wound gape thus flattening of the superior cornea and against-the-rule astigmatism. The above described keratoscope easily differentiates the localization of the suture defect in these two situations and permits quantitative correction to reform the error. A procedure that can be followed in such an operation might comprise reflecting mires 58 from the preoperative corneal surface, and projecting an image of the mires so reflected onto the viewing surface 22. The cursors 61 are then brought into coincidence with the mires reflected from the preoperative corneal surface. A digital reading of this discrete radius of curvature can then be read out on the display 63. Alternatively the preoperative mires image may be stored for later viewing. The cataract operation is then performed. Before sutures are tightened, the keratoscope is again focused on the postoperative corneal surface. The cursors are set to the preoperative discrete valve or the preoperative mire image is displayed, whereupon the sutures may be manipulated to bring the postoperative corneal surface into conformity with the preoperative corneal shape. It is readily seen that modifications and variations on this and other surgical techniques can be arranged and still fall within the spirit and scope of the system described.
A keratorefractive procedure which readily lends itself to this system is described in applicant's co-pending application entitled "Method and Apparatus for Corneal Curvature Adjustment" and filed of even date herewith. This keratorefractive technique briefly involves determining the desired shape of a corneal surface for correcting the refractive error of a specific corneal surface. A plastic ring is then inserted into the corneal stroma, such plastic ring being split at one point to provide two ends open for relative movement to one another. After inserting the ring, the above described keratoscope is positioned over the eye whereupon the mires reflected from the eye are projected onto the viewing surface 22. The control knob 62 is then turned until the desired numerical value of corneal curvature is displayed at 63. This then places the cursors at the desired separation to correspond to a correct corneal topography. The plastic ring is then adjusted in diameter within the corneal stroma to bring the mires into coincidence with the cursors, whereupon, the ends of the ring are fixed relative to one another to provide a corrected corneal surface.
The apparatus described herein can be used simply as a quantitative keratometer by placing the cursor marks into coincidence with the reflected mires and then read out the radius of curvature. In fact, any number of variations of techniques may be thought of for utilizing the system described above, as well as modifications to the system specifically described. For example, one can display two sets of mires, one being real time and another, a stored image. These can then be superimposed or otherwise compared, for example, by using cursors, to facilitate eye correction.
Therefore, while particular embodiments of he present invention have been shown and described it is apparent that changes and modifications may be made without departing from this invention in its broader aspects, and therefore, the aim in the appended claims is to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

When 22.06.2013
The cast and crew of upcoming movie 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' talk at a press conference at Comic-Con in San Diego. Among them are director Matt Reeves and star Keri Russell.
'It's a story that starts in the world of apes and you see what they've built and you see that kind of primitive but majestic kingdom and you see a family and you see a way in which they're coming into being and then they are thinking and wondering in this new creation, 'Are the humans gone?', Matt Reeves says when asked what the story is about. 'It's really a story of survival and the thing I was reading a little bit about before I started was. this war journalist, someone who's been through war and has lost a lot of people and I think that's sort of where my character is. you're just trying to create an existence from that, at that place', Keri explains about the emotion of her character.

The Fifth Home
It's about a foster girl named Torri Crast
Chapter One: The Arrival
I glanced out the window, frowning. This was my fifth home in two years. But I guess that's the pattern for foster kids.
Nothing's constant.
The driver turned a corner, bringing us to another row of fancy houses. To my surprise, he stopped when we were halfway to the other end of the street.
I looked out again. A young woman with long blond hair walked down a sidewalk leading to the curb of the road. Now that she was closer, I could see she had kind brown eyes and a round face. She was slender, with a nice body.
"Bye Torri. I hope I don't see you again too soon," my driver, who happens to be the one who drives me all the time, said.
"Same here. Bye Charlie."
Charlie was tall, with black skin. His brown hair was shaved short, and every time I saw him, he wore a black suit. He grew up in foster care, too
I grabbed my duffel bag full of every belonging I owned, which was only three jeans, six T-shirts, underwear, and a picture of my parents from before they died. Currently, I was wearing my only pair of shorts, my only hoodie, and my Death Cab for Cutie T-shirt. My shoes, which were just a pair of Vans Off the Wall flats I've had for three years, had multiple holes in them, were too small, and weren't white anymore.
I waved as Charlie drove away. I wish I could have given him a hug; he was almost like a brother to me.
"Hi Torri. I hope you'll be happy here. My name is Eleanor, but you can call me Ellie. Come inside, and I'll show you your room."
I wanted to scream, "I'm never happy! I don't care who you are! And having a room doesn't make a difference because I don't want to be here!"
Instead, I bit my tongue and said, "Thank you."
Ellie led me through the house to a room upstairs. It was relatively big for a bedroom. It was certainly the biggest room I'd ever had. The walls were painted a bright kiwi color.
"Did somebody tell you?" I asked, a little ruder than I'd planned.
"Tell me what?" she asked, scared she'd offended me already.
"That my favorite colors are green, pink, and orange?"
She sighed in relief and laughed. "Oh, heavens no. This used to be my daughter's room, and she loved the colors too."
"Oh. She moved out, then?" I asked, wondering why I was asking.
"Um... No. She was killed in a car accident three years ago."
"Oh. I'm so sorry. I could sleep on the couch, if you wanted. It's fine." I said quickly, not sure if I really wanted to stay in a dead girl's room.
"Oh, no, no. Unless you'd rather. It's up to you. You might be here a while, though, and the couch is terribly uncomfortable for more than a few hours. I couldn't imagine sleeping on it for more than a week. But I don't care, dear. So long as your happy."
"Okay. Thank you. This is the first time I've had a bed in a while..."
"You're welcome. I'll leave you to unpack. Dinner will be ready by six, when Dave gets home. And Logan will be back from school in a few minutes," she said, turning to leave and shutting the door.
I didn't bother unpacking. There wasn't really any use for it. I'd probably be leaving in a month or two anyway. Four to eight weeks wasn't really something I would waste time unpacking for.
I sat down on the bed. It took a second, but finally, I started crying.
I stayed in my new room for the three hours it took for time to slowly pass to six. I heard the front door open downstairs and guessed Dave was home.
"Torri?" Ellie asked, knocking softly on the door but not coming in. "Dinner is ready."
"Okay. I'll be out in a minute," I said, drying my eyes and wiping my nose on my sleeve.
When I heard footsteps retreating down the hall, I slipped out of my room to the bathroom. When I finished washing my face and hands, I went downstairs.
A tall man with dark hair was standing at the sink washing his hands.
"Hi Torri," someone said from behind me, making me jump.
"Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to scare you. I'm Logan."
"You didn't scare me. I just wasn't expecting you to sneak up on me," I said, sighing.
"Okay, whatever you say."
"Logan, be nice. Torri, you can come grab a plate. We're having lasagna," Ellie announced cheerfully.
"Hey! I am being nice," Logan said, grabbing a plate.
"Um, what's lasagna?" I asked shyly, walking up to the blue counters uneasily.
Everyone stopped what they were doing to look at me. Logan's mouth was hanging open, like he was completely shocked by my lack of knowledge. He probably was.
My skin started crawling, and I wanted nothing more than to bolt from the large room. But I forced myself to stay put and wait for my answer.
"Lasagna is a type of pasta," Dave explained finally. "If you like spaghetti, then you'll love this."
"Oh. I've only had spaghetti twice, but I liked it," I said, getting a small piece of lasagna. I waited for everyone else to sit down, so I didn't take someone's spot and get in trouble.
I sat between Logan and Ellie once they were seated at the dark round oak table.
"So how do you like your room?" Dave asked, breaking the silence.
"I love it," I said. I took a bite of the lasagna and was surprised by how good it was. "This is really good."
"Thank you, Torri. It's home-made, the best kind."
We ate in silence for a moment, but I stopped when I noticed Logan staring at my face.
"You have a huge bruise on the side of your face. You must have run into a pretty hard wall to do that," he remarked.
"Um, no, it's alright. I was wondering when somebody would ask about that." Everyone was silent, waiting on me.
"I did not run into a really hard wall, though I wish that was the case. Um... no, my last foster family was abusive, and only really cared about the money they got from the system."
Ellie and Dave were too astonished to speak.
"I know what that's like," Logan said solemnly. Now it was my turn to be shocked.
"You do?" I asked, looking at Ellie and Dave with fear.
"Oh, no. Not them. You see, I was in foster care, too. Ellie and Dave, here, adopted me two and a half years ago. Ellie and Dave are the greatest; they wouldn't hurt a fly," Logan explained.
I sighed in relief and said, "Oh." It was the best I could come up with.
I ate my last piece of lasagna.
"Torri, will you let me see your shoes?" Ellie asked after a minute.
"Um, I guess. Why?" I stood up and let her see my feet.
"How long have you had them?"
Starting to feel a little self-conscious now, I answered, "Three years."
Ellie laughed. "They've had a good run or two, haven't they."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"Tomorrow, I'm gonna take you shopping to get some new ones."
"Oh, that's not necessary," I said.
"Nonsense. If it rains, your feet will be soaking wet, and I don't want you getting a cold."
"Okay. Um... thank you."
When everyone was done, we talked for a little bit longer, and finally went to bed.
I was asleep before my head hit the pillow.

Difference of OpinionMature
The next day passed slowly, Gabriel even thought Dawn's watch had stopped as he kept asking the time. In the end Dawn gave Gabriel his watch as he tried to relax and draw.
"What are you drawing?" Morgan asked as she came in.
"Your dad." Dawn muttered not looking up.
"What?" Gabriel growled sitting up.
"No," Dawn said still not looking away from the paper. "You're not naked, no you're not asleep or anything else you think is embarrassing." Dawn sighed.
"good." Gabriel said laying back down.
"Can I ask something?" Morgan asked sitting in the end of Dawn's bed.
"Hm?" Gabriel said his eyes closed again.
"Why aren't you two a couple yet?" Gabriel sat up sharply and Dawn swore quietly as he snapped the stick of charcoal he held.
"We just aren't." the daemon said.
"That's not a reason." Morgan smiled "you two suit each other."
"we used too" Dawn said looking at the vampyre, Gabriel said nothing.
"You still do." Morgan said "but that's not I came to ask."
"Then what?" Gabriel growled his bad mood was evident in his voice as he lay back down.
"I was wondering what's happening," Morgan said "I mean, we're going to Hell and Hell's army is going to war."
"That's what's happening." Dawn frowned wiping charcoal from his fingers.
"But after that." Morgan said "I'm the heir to the throne, will I have to go?"
"If mother dies we'll have to find someone. If you don't want to do it you don't have too." Morgan smiled.
Sylver was the ext visitor smiling at Morgan as she looked up from leafing through Dawn's drawings.
"Hey, guys." Sylver had a sheet of paper in his hand. Gabriel grumbled a grouchy hello.
"Hi" Dawn said he was holding a few drawings to his chest not letting Morgan see them.
"Why can't I see?" she asked.
"You wouldn't want too." Dawn said flushing slightly a small smile on his face "besides I'll get into trouble with a certain grumpy vampyre." Sylver rolled his eyes as Gabriel growled not opening his eyes.
"Anyway," Sylver said "I've drawn up a rota of who feeds and when."
"What?" Gabriel asked sitting up.
"Safety," Sylver smiled "you're at six with Dawn and Rossier."
"Like hell I am." Gabriel snarled "I'd rather go without."
"Gabriel," Sylver said harshly "you need a bit of protection. Luckily for us Morgan doesn't have to feed but you're being looked for."
"Then surely fewer is better." Dawn said Sylver sighed. "I'll go with him."
"Alright but tell Lou before you go."
"Is he in charge now?" Gabriel scoffed
"He seems to be the one who knows what's happening" Sylver shrugged "I don't like it much but it makes sense."
"It bloody does not." Dawn snapped pushing his sketch pad back into his bag. He stormed towards the exit. Sylver flashed a worried look at Gabriel who stood and half-heartedly followed Dawn.

Serving the Lord with Teen Missions in South Africa
Meet The Mashongoane
Lorraine was born and raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. She got saved at the age of 9 at a local Bible camp her parents sent her to and has followed the Lord ever since. At age 18 she started attending church regularly for the first time and became a member of a local Baptist church and soon went on to be a Sunday School teacher and Sunday School Superintendent. Throughout that time she also received a diploma in Early Childhood Education from Confederation College in Thunder Bay.
At age 19, in 2010 Lorraine went on her first missions trip, which was to Uganda with Teen Missions. She knew the Lord might call her to missions which is why she decided to go. During her time there God laid a burden on her heart to pursue full-time, overseas missions. The next summer she led a team to Tanzania and the following year came back as a One Year Volunteer to serve in Malawi and South Africa. During her time there she worked with AOSC (Aids Orphans and Street Children) as well as MSSM (Motorcycle Sunday School Mission). She enjoyed the ministry there and at the end of her year God had made it very clear that it was time to join staff with Teen Missions and that South Africa would be the right fit. It was in South Africa that we met Kgotso.
Kgotso started attending Boot Camp in South Africa with his brother and cousins when he was 13. He enjoyed going back for camp every December and has always been very good at the 40 memory verses required for teams. In January 2012 Kgotso joined BMW in South Africa after God caught a strong hold of his heart and led him to be in ministry. In March 2013 he met Lorraine, and despite his nerves could not let her leave South Africa without telling her he loved her. God's plan started to unravel. While Lorraine was home in Canada raising support Kgotso was serving his BMW internship with MSSM. In October 2014 Lorraine joined staff, and in January 2015 Kgotso's internship finished and he became staff in South Africa as well. They soon got married in South Africa and are now serving on the MSSM circuit in South Africa. They teach Bible lessons, phonics, do home visits and more.
Prayer Requests
Wisdom and guidance as we work with the Motorcycle Sunday School Mission
Spiritual growth
Safety and protection
For God's hand in our marriage. That He would always be first, and be in charge of our marriage
Lorraine – January 12
Kgotso – February 5
March 27&28, 2015

36: Invasion of PrivacyMature
Oliana had barely stepped out of the tent before she was met by a barrage of questions from Keon.
"Now that you've got some answers, I've got some questions for you! I couldn't quite hear what that teller was saying, but she did seem to think you were important. And you know, you've never really told me much about where you came from. Just some very odd things, like your wolf not knowing what he was. And then there's that rare ring on your finger. So it's time you told me. Everything."
Oliana was taken aback. "Why the sudden curiosity?"
"I'm always curious, dear. It's just that normally I like to learn things about people slowly and subtly. Stealth is my way. But when someone's as peculiar as yourself, I must take more overt measures. So, I insist, tell me your life story," his tone had a threatening quality. "You know, for an illiterate boy, I know quite a bit of history. It helps in my line of work to understand political tensions, and I've just become privy to something very fascinating indeed. I need your help to learn its history."
"What's going on? What did you see?"
"You answer first, dear."
"Fine. I can tell you who I am and where I came from, but I certainly won't do so out in the open. You wouldn't believe me if I told you the whole story, anyway."
"I said everything. It doesn't matter whether or not I believe it, dear, but it could be a matter of life and death."
"What do you--"
"Tell me." His eyes burned with an intensity Oliana had not seen before.
"Let's go over there first," she gestured to a small, empty courtyard with a tree planted near a simple stone bench. "You won't mind if I speak in whispers, I hope?"
"Not at all, dear."
They took a seat beside one another on the bench and Oliana let a deep gulp of chilled air invade her lungs. It was getting colder now that the sun had begun its disappearing act.
"You ought to know that much of what I'm about to tell you of my origins I did not know myself until quite recently," she breathed. "My father… my father was the king's twin brother."
She looked at Keon and found his expression almost comical. Perhaps he had already discounted her entire tale.
"Eirethstead defeated the Dechi kingdom over two decades ago, and Gillireth took the Dechi princess as his wife, not knowing that they were a race of shifters. The whole kingdom was led to believe that the child had been stillborn, but he was alive, simply born in the form of a wolf. The king found out one day and tried to kill the child and his mother, but the child was mercifully saved by my father, unbeknownst to Gillireth. The child, of course, was Dechar."
Keon's eyes glinted as she proceeded to complete her story.
"Gillireth was so eager to blame everyone else for his misfortunes that he banished my father and his head mystic, along with an entire village that had helped them. That village became my clan, and the life I was born into was isolated. Dechar was made to never learn his true nature so that he would not endanger himself or the rest of us. And then, years later, Gillireth found himself another mystic, one who told him of his son's survival and location.
"My mother died long ago, and my father passed just a few months ago, so I was chief of my clan, however briefly. Gillireth's men forced me to surrender. They slew my little brother in the process," her voice cracked. "Dechar and I were taken prisoner, but we both escaped through separate means. And then you found us. That's everything. That's why I care so much about Dechar. He's the only family I have left."
Keon's mind had all but been made to go back on Orlo's promise when he had heard that Dechar was a prince, but her last statement cut his heart to the quick. Family, he thought. "It seems we've all lost family to that bastard," Keon said. "I'm sorry, Oliana. That's all I needed to hear."
"So tell me now why you asked," she tried to rein in her voice with patience.
Keon took a crinkled sheet of paper from one of his sacks and laid it on her lap. She opened up the creases and gasped at the image of Dechar. The poster read, Wanted: Dangerous, man-eating greywolf to be brought to the king himself for slaying. The bounty listed at the bottom was valued at five million raeds.
"Don't worry, I won't tell Orlo," Keon said. "I've grown somewhat fond of you today, and I wouldn't rob you of your last kin. Last kin besides Gillireth, that is," his stomach churned.
"Did you see any other postings? We must take them all down!" Oliana insisted breathlessly, ripping the paper to shreds.
"That's the only one I've come across, dear. And besides, all we need tell him is to shift and stay in his two-legged form for a while, right?"
"I hope so," she replied, remembering with an ache that she must be split from Dechar shortly. Would he be in danger where he was going?
The cheer of a flute and accompanied singing broke through the icy air with a sudden fervor.
"The burning's about to start," Keon said. His excitement for the heist had largely waned with the rapidly fading light. Stars began to wink overhead. The two sat on the bench and watched as the multitude of merchants and buyers made their exodus to the rooftops near the opposing edge of the city. They were eager to see the massive, wooden wolf be set aflame after it had been wheeled up near one of the gates and to set their lantern kites in the blackened skies to caper with the stars.
When Keon gave the word that the stalls were empty, Oliana followed him into the darkness and took one of the sacks from him, the one which held her book. They raised their hoods and crept along the edge of the stalls quietly, picking up those items which they had already discussed lifting. All was running smoothly until Keon halted with abruptness. He'd heard something, and he could see the light of a torch coming closer, closer around a nearby corner. They needed to act quickly.
"Oliana," he looked down at her straight in the eyes and whispered. "Please trust me that what I'm about to do is for our safety." He dropped his sack and gripped his arms around her slender figure as his lips pressed against her own.

Because, let's face it, their eyes really don't go.
Getting Dressed.
Holly had never spent a lot of time on her wardrobe. It just wasn't something she worried about. After all, she nearly lived in her uniform, so why bother? However, she did have the occaisional foray into that wonderful thing called a social life and she prided herself in not looking like too much of an idiot during them. She had a perfectly decent sense of style, thank you very much, and an excellent eye for colour.
An eye which was nearly crying in frustation at the moment.
"No, no…. No… no!... ARGH, no."
Holly eyed the pile of clothes on her bed balefully before turning back to her mirror. Arms akimbo, she spoke to the room at large in that singularly incredibly fond but still nearly homicidal tone of voice she reserved for one person, and one person only.
"D'arvit Artemis! Why do our eyes have to clash so badly?"

It's the latest in one man's fight for compensation after spending 27 years in prison.
The first day of what is expected to be a three-month long hearing in the Supreme Court.
68-year-old Ivan Henry had ten convictions quashed in October of 2010.
That this is taking place at all, a case that is effectively a compensation call, is unusual. That's according to Henry's lawyer John Laxton.
He says it's the first time a case like this was not settled out of court.
Laxton told the court that his client was effectively on "death row" for the years he spent in prison with any cell mate he was placed with a potential threat.
Henry is taking on the city, the province, and the feds in this trial, with all three contesting his claim for compensation.
Henry is claiming that police mishandled and failed to disclosed evidence that would've acquitted him; also that the province engaged in misconduct with its prosecution and the federal government didn't properly review his conviction.
This is after the Supreme Court of Canada awarded him the right to sue last March.

I was late on the last payment and recived a very rude and hostile phone call from someone named scott. I was threatened with the losse of all monies paid and no futher help if I didn't immediatly find and send the last payment.

After 5 years I am still realling from the financial burden caused by this company and lose of money associated from doing business with them. The emotional and physical hardships I have endured after the short visit with them has affected my family, my future, and my mental and physical health. Is there no justice?

5 November 2016
This is why Someone Else exists:
I started writing about style while working for a certain men's clothing service in Chicago. It was fun interviewing Billy Reid, George Vlagos, Jason Schott, Bob Kidder, and all those guys, but the final stories weren't exactly making me cream my selvedge jeans. When I interviewed George for the company blog, for instance, my main objective—per manager expectation—was to explain why Oak Street Bootmakers penny loafers cost $320, and why it matters that they're made out of something called burgundy CXL from some place called Horween Leather.
This kind of storytelling gave our salespeople talking points, and, more importantly, helped resolve customer apprehension related to price.
But personally, I was more interested in designers' motivations and inspiration. I enjoyed talking to Billy Reid about buffalo-horn buttons, but I wanted to dig deeper into why being called a "Southern designer" irked him so much, and why he set up HQ in Florence, Alabama. George Vlagos told me that his father, a cobbler, wanted him to be a doctor or lawyer, but not a shoemaker. I wanted to get deeper into that. After touring the Horween factory, home of that burgundy CXL, I wanted to write about the Horween family and their dedication to old-school leather-making. Sadly, that kind of thing wouldn't have resonated with my audience or bosses.
My preference for stories over selling points came to a head when I advocated for my company to bring in some shoes from New England Outerwear. After we received shipment, I did a product-knowledge presentation for the entire sales team. With Mr. Smith Goes to Washington fervor I held forth about how Dan Heston and Greg Cordeiro bought their own shoe factory in Maine; how they recruited a master hand-sewer from the local landfill (he had been an offshoring casualty of the LL Bean and Bass departures); and how all that informed the quality of the final product. I ended my impassioned speech with, "God bless New England Outerwear, and God bless the United States of America." Then I asked if there were any questions.
Weeks later, none of the shoes had moved. In turn, I knew I had to move on.
Back when I finished the Horween factory tour, I met Phil Kalas, who works at Horween and runs Ashland Leather on the side with Dan Cordova. This introduction ended with me heading home with an unusual Fat Herbie shell-cordovan wallet. This particular wallet was limited-edition with special threading, intended as an Ashland Leather x Momotaro collaboration, which had fallen through. I wrote a blog post about the wallet, focusing on the Momotaro angle. After posting the link to my Facebook, Stefan Draht shared it on his timeline. Stefan was a designer I'd recently met through work. I thanked him for the share, which led to a conversation that's been going on for the last three years.
Stefan and I shared similar dissatisfactions and ambition. We weren't completely satisfied with style publications that focused on what: Here's a new shirt; here's a new pair of shoes; here's a new designer. Those sites are great at what they do, but outlets like Hypebeast, and people like hypebeasts, seemed disinterested in going beyond the hype. There are also publications focused on how, which I also read and appreciate. It's fun to nerd-out on the minutiae of denim looms, and places like Heddel's are great at that, but excruciatingly detailed explanations of arcane clothing-manufacturing processes don't stick to my ribs.
It might sound precious or even wildly pretentious (I'd cop to either count), but Stefan and I wanted to go deeper, into that sense of why that I couldn't really explore with Billy Reid and George Vlagos. So we produced a story about the Independence shop in Chicago, which ended up becoming the first Someone Else entry, "With Opposition." Stefan hand-coded a standalone website for the story, which went live in August 2014. From there we kept the conversation going and launched a new website in January 2015. (During the transition, "With Opposition" got lost in the shuffle and went offline.) In the subsequent 12 months we published 12 stories, most of which touched on the theme of family. Our "Family Issue" included three business stories, three personal stories, three podcasts, and two essays, with a piece on Sturgill Simpson thrown into the mix. During that publication run, Stefan and I kept working, eventually planning a complete site overhaul, a project that we nicknamed 2.0.
You are now visiting Someone Else 2.0. To commemorate our relaunch, we are opening with "With Opposition" as our main feature, along with the three business stories from the Family Issue. In the weeks and months to come, I will recreate the remaining Family Issue stories in our current CMS, while also publishing new work on Freenote Cloth, American Trench, Left Field, Yuki Matsuda, Ashland Leather, a Chicago metalsmith named Gillion Carrara, and many others. Through it all, Stefan and I will keep searching out new ways for design, visuals, and copy to combine as equal storytelling elements, to get us deeper under the surface.
We hope you'll join that conversation.
Let us know how we're doing, what we can do better, and what kind of why you'd like to see.Joe Jarvis, Editor (firstname.lastname@example.com)

Tech & Features
Absorption Flex Tips
Soft Flex boards are the most friendly and "easy to use" boards in our range. The Soft flex option is forgiving and simply fun to ride, even if you are an unexperienced rider. However, the Soft Flex option is also suitable for more lightweight riders. Following boards feature the Soft flex: Soleil and Gonzales.
Based on a unique new construction of the board in the tip area, the scoop rocker line ensures better response to changing situations. In underpowered riding, the board remains flat for fast planing. In overpowered riding, the scoop bends and provides for an increased level of control and stability. The flex tips absorb shocks and enable soft landings.
Torsion Flex
Step Mono Concave
The special shape of the 3D cap allows torsion of the long axis of the board. This gives them more grip on the heel-side edge, rich and smooth landings, a direct drive and better upwind performance. Invented by North.
The step mono concave is the fastest and easiest to ride bottom concepts. It can be carved easily through turns and always delivers the right grip. It planes early, allows smaller fins and helps to go upwind with ease.
> Perfect control
> Great upwind performance
