Oct 24, 2010This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. She tried so hard to be a plastic popstar with Laundry Service in 2001, the Fixations in 2005 and She Wolf in 2009 that now that she wants to go back to her old self, she fails misserably and seems as fake as ever. She is trapped between the hottie hip-shaker bimbo and the latino pop-rock star she was in 1998. Plus, her voice is not at her best, thicker than ever and out of tune. You can see this in Tu Boca, Devoción, Addicted To You, Sale el Sol or Islands. Half of the album are cheesy songs full of merengue and reggaeton. Her vocals, for those who understand spanish, are shameful. Loca is maybe the worst of them all, but Rabiosa, Gordita and Addicted To You are not better. Nobody believes now that she can deliver a rock influenced song with dignity and she proves it in Tu Boca and Devoción. Itâ… Expand
Nov 3, 2010Sale el Sol demostrates Shakira's evolution in music. Enjoyable from beggining to end. Shakira brings back spanish music, real spanish music. Her ability to handle many genres and blend them with her unique styles makes this album a jewel. Shakira is back, and she's back to stay. Sale el Sol is a classic in spanish music history.
Nov 25, 2010Significantly, this is not the best album by Shakira, as I'm a long-time fan of her and listened to her all albums, and this is by far one in the top 3 of her 9 albums. Here's the possible top 10 of her best works: 1. "Laundry Service/Servicio de LavanderÃa" 2. "Oral Fixation, Vol. 2" 3. "Sale El Sol" 4. "Fijación Oral, Vol. 1" 5. "¿Dónde Están los Ladrones?"
6. "She Wolf"
7. "Pies Descalzos"
8. "Peligro"
9. "MTV Unplugged"
10. "Magia"
I love Shakira's music and this album proves that I'm right! Congrats!… Expand
Dec 13, 2010Sale el sol will be a back to basics album. I think that Shakira had released the album because of the negative reception of Loba in Latin America. I said this as an latin fan, Latin America wanted that she will be back to her roots like Pies descalzos, ¿Dónde están los ladrones? or Fijación Oral Vol. 1 but this contains more merengue and reggaeton that latin pop rock, and that is too much.… Expand
Oct 20, 2010This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. With the Sun coming out, comes an album that's sure to take you to various boundaries every time a track changes in the absolutely awesome album. Shakira certainly understands the notion of 'Cultural Diversity' in 20-Ten and no one can get better than her when it comes to mixing them to prepare the perfect recipe which is sure to become a international phenomenon! Must listen's include Devocion, Islands and Rabiosa that's gonna get you all dancing the moment you hear it! And how can anyone forget, Loca! Shakira's surely crazy and we absoultely love Crazy! Way to go!… Expand
Oct 25, 2010Shakira with this new album is confirmed as a pop star and the album "The sun comes out" is very interesting becouse, she mixes many music genres.
And this album is the best in her career.
Songs recommended: "Loca", "Gordita", "Antes de las seis" and "Devoción".
Oct 26, 2010I can't believe this album is as good as it is -- Shakira's best work and quite possibly the best pop record of the year. Each song embrances it's popiness wholeheartedly, from the ballads to the club jams. If you go anywhere near a club in the next year expect to hear 'Loca Loca Loca' ad nauseum.
Dec 22, 2010Being a fan of Shakira since even back from her first few albums, Magia, Peligro, and Pies Descalzos, I am thoroughly impressed by this work. It has easily become one of my favorite CDs of hers. It really does have a mix of all of Shakira's sides since the start of her career. It has nice ballads, rock influenced songs, fun Latin pieces - this album is refreshing, as it is very sincere to her roots compared to previous album, She Wolf. The lyrics are beautiful, the rhythms make you want to dance, cry, sing - a nice roller coaster of emotions from this well produced heart-felt album.… Expand
Oct 21, 2010Sale el Sol is damn good in every way, all the songs are different from each other but still go together pretty well. Awesome album! The best songs on here, in my opinion, is Devoción, Lo Que Más, Tu Boca, Loca (English Version) and Gordita. Rabiosa feat. Pitbull is pretty good too, and will probably be big in the US.
Overall, this album is great! It could be better, had she made a pop song like Whenever, Wherever on this record, I think it could have been greater. 8 out of 10 from me.… Expand
Oct 26, 2010WOAO QUE DISCO MAS CREATIVO ALUCINADO ESPECIAL DELICADO MAGNIFICO ELEGANTE FABULOSO ES EL CD DEL AÃ
Oct 28, 2010She's finally done a true Shakira album...we all know the she always tries different sounds, but ''She Wolf'' didn't work (not for me), and now she's back with deeper songs (even the dance songs), powerful vocals, great lyrics. Rock, ballads and hip moves...GREAT ALBUM...
Nov 5, 2010One of the best words defining this album is "eclectic". If you're trying to put this album in an specific box you'll can't. Shakira goes far from her Latin roots and take the chance from the sound of the moment (something that sounds like merengue but clash on latin electronic dance). This situation is perfectly shown in her featured songs with Pitbul and Dizzy Rascal (that have its origins in "El Cata", Dominican artist that mixed the sounds for the most commercial songs of the album).
(The following comment is in Spanish just to follow the bilingual context of the album ;-))... Caso aparte es la canción "Gordita", pieza que me recordó la elegancia callejera de Calle 13. Aunque muchos encuentran en "Rabiosa" una pieza de flirteo más bailable, particularmente considero que la gracia de "Gordita" radica en mi preferencia personal por el estilo particular de Calle 13, con tantas referencias a sus trabajos previos que no pude evitar sonreir al escuchar un flirteo más "tierno" al estilo de "La Jirafa". La pieza definitivamente será de las favoritas en America Latina, mercado al que está enfocado el album (el punto es cuando será correcto su lanzamiento?).
Listening ballads like "mariposas"(butterflies), "Lo que mas"(what more) and "Antes de las seis" (before six o'clock) will remeber you the starting spanish albums -this album is the ninth in Shakira's career- sounds. It's good to listen some of that sound between the "Dominican" fever. Of these three songs, "Antes de las seis" will be the perfect radio ballad for Valentine next year.
And songs like "Sale el sol", "Mariposas" and "Tu boca" remember that good pop-rock songs comes very fluid into Shakira's head. Don't try to complicate yourself finding deeper messages and enjoy them. From this ones, anyone could be a pop hit in Latin America and "Tu boca" has a little special sound that turns out from almost any song of Shakira. "Sale el sol" will be the next "girl teen power" anthem (yes, i'm being sarcastic!)
Even the world wide hit "Waka Waka (this time for Africa)" -that personally, i hated it- sounds coupled to the album (get over the mixes!) and, as Rosita says, maybe "Islands" was unnecessary for the album, but that's one the things that you can do when you produce your own albums and want to create something different with something that you like (and best of all, your company don't denies). So, let it be! :-)
Finally, If you're expecting something new for this album, it's just the latin dance sounds mixed with merengue so much in vogue all over Latin America (And that made Pitbull some rich), but that has nothing new at this point. If you're waiting to listen the old Shakira sound, you'll be priced with 2 or 3 new happy songs (so, forget being depressed!). And if you're a Shakira's fan, you won't be disapointed.… Expand
Nov 7, 2010This album is awesome! Shakira tries to find her old self again and she pretty much succeeds in it. She combines many genres of music and her ballads are full of passion and emotion! Spanish make the songs even more attractive. Even if you don't know the language the tracks can move you! It is very exciting!
Dec 21, 2010This album proves that the sun makes Shakira better than the moon. It's been I long time since I last truly enjoyed one of her records. That's how I like her - closer to Colombia than to the US, closer to what made the world spot her and love her. Lyrics in Spanish, a latin groove, some Shakira-like rocks, the smash hit Waka Waka. If you miss the 'Pies Descalzos', 'Ladrones', 'Unplugged' and some 'Laundry Service' Shakira, not forgetting the universal appeal, it's a must-listen.… Expand
Oct 21, 2010I was a bit skeptical after She Wolf, but Shakira just proves she can bounce from sound to sound without suffering from the change. Sale El Sol is amazing from start to finish, taking the listener through an extravagant ride towards music awareness.
Oct 22, 2010Shakira at her best! great up-tempos with a Merengue sound and amazing ballads like Lo Que mas Antes De Las Seis. Classic rock Shakira with Devocion and TU Boca. Amazing album!
Dec 27, 2010Shakira's musical diversity is amazing. A year ago, she issued She Wolf, an album full of dance and electro pop. Now, Shakira gives us Sale el Sol, completely different to She Wolf, and more eclectic than anything she has done before. Songs in the album can be divided into three completely different styles. First: the latin, merengue, reggaeton, fiesta songs (Loca, Gordita. Addicted to you, Rabiosa). Second: pop rock songs in the style of her older albums (Sale el Sol, Mariposas, Devoción, Islands, Tu Boca) Third: delicate beautiful ballads (Antes de las seis, Lo que más) So the album's greatest success is also its only failure: there are so many contrasting styles that songs don't stick together very well to each other. However, the album is still very good: the title track will be welcomed by fans of her 90's stuff, Loca is a tremendous dance song and would have been a huge hit if released in Summer, and Antes de las seis is a ballad that remembers us how Shakira's songwriting can be.… Expand
Jul 25, 2011Might not be as bad as She Wolf but it features the same simplistic lyrics that have characterized Shakira's records since 1998. There's nothing special here. I'm very surprised on how high it's been scored by both the critics and the users. It is not helping anyone trying to get something good. The only exception here could be "Gordita" and thats thanks to the contribution of Calle 13. The rest contains the same repetitive and cheesy lyrics. No, Shakira is not turning back to her roots. I'm sorry for all of you. And my real score is 1.0 but it seems this is getting manipulated.… Expand
Apr 23, 2012One of the best bilingual albums ever made in music history, Shakira brought latin rhythms from dominican merengue and produced three brilliant tracks (Loca, Rabiosa, Addicted To You) the album also has that 90's shakira thing that we all love, she came back to her roots with songs like Devoción, Tu Boca, Antes De Las Seis and Sale El Sol. Shakira has shown again that the language is not a bar for music. I think she needed more promotion and send the singles to U.S radio Loca and Rabiosa could be smashing singles. I think this is how pop-rock music should sound like.… Expand
Dec 27, 2010This review contains spoilers. "Sale el Sol" is what you get when mixing old school Shakira and a tropical **** A fruity and deliciously fresh album easily liked at the very first listen empowered by her unique organic lyrics.
The tracks "Sale el Sol" ,"Loca", "Antes de las Seis" and "Gordita" are the album's highlights, others like "Addicted to You" and "Rabiosa" fail to give that boost that makes the album a complete addiction.
This album proves that Shakira is as malleable as clay and clearly that the sky is not her limit.… Collapse
Jan 18, 2011Well lets face it, it';s not just the music that's good also the looks and I have to say this critic has a crush on this singer and that's nothing for a negative comment but since i'm a critic I can't give top marks
Jan 22, 2011One of her best. This album has grat songs like Loca, Antes de Las Seis, Gordita, Addicted to You, Lo Que Más, Rabiosa, Devocion, Tu Boca... Shakira is one of the greatest female artist now days, is so sadly that she doesn't has the attention that she deserves. Keep doing great music Shaki, you have one of the best spanish albuns ever, Fijacion Oral Vol. 1. Thank you for making good music. 10… Expand
Feb 18, 2011It shows shakira's ability to always come up with something new and fresh, sale el sol is a hot record with many different colors which make a very enjoyable ambient for the listener, she definitely took a risk and succeeded
Apr 14, 2011I personally feel that most people here are giving Shakira too much credit, just because it's got a high Metascore (off only 5 critics). Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, it's just nothing special.
May 29, 2011This album has just regained my faith in Shakira after the ordinary "She Wolf". Shakira should just get away for a while from that style and keep releasing stuff like this that really sounds amazing for her. I had very big expectations about this new album for the simple fact that it was conceived in Spanish... and then Shakira saying "I'll try to include Latin rhythms" and "old style" and stuff... I needed to listen to it as soon as possible. Not perfect but as good as it should be! "Sale el sol" it's not her best album honestly but it's a great quality album! The wait was worthy.… Expand
Jun 29, 2011Love this album! Every track is catchy, but i got to say my fave is "Islands" so far, WHAT A GIRL! That's is a great cover. Ballads "lo que mas" y "antes de las seis" are wonderful. Masterpieces. Latin tracks are great too "Rabiosa" and "loca" are very catchy, perfect summer songs.
Oct 9, 2011Why couldn't Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears do something like Shakira, and manage to do a great album, even after like twenty years in her carrier! A latino-album with a powerbeta that makes anyone dance, she did a great job in songs like "Rabiosa" and "Gordita", a I hope people start to think like her when doing a album.
Feb 12, 2012Shakira's album is a mediocre attempt to conquer their two types of public, Latin and European, but remains just that, it's just one more try ... Shakira is the same concept to a tired, unimaginative and boring. You need to renew and give a time-out to his career.
Mar 12, 2012This is an excellent latin album, she did it again. The best songs are: "Sale el Sol", "Antes de las Seis", "Devocion" , "Lo que más". She mix a lot of sounds that create fabulous latin sounds.
Mar 19, 2012Shakira acaba de demonstrar que no es una diva superficial de las que unicamente siguen la moda del momento. Sale el Sol es un disco completamente distinto a todo lo que suena actualmente y conserva la gran esencia de Shakira. Loca, Rabiosa y A2U aparentemente son canciones normales hechas con el fin apenas de hacer bailar a la gente, pero si nos ponemos apensar esas 3 canciones ofrecen algo fresco frente a las canciones con beats electronicos, hacer que medio mundo baile un genero tan latino como el merengue es algo dificil y muchas veces imposible para las demÃ… Expand
Apr 14, 2012Shakira, a global phenomenon after her single "Waka, Waka This Time for Africa" world cup anthem, and world smash-hit. Skakira has returned with Sale el Sol, another bilingual album. The first single of the album got everyone dancing and acting crazy, this sing is "Loca". This track is in both Spanish and English, gaining more success with the English version, "Loca" is fiery/dance song that should be played at parties and clubs, a song that surely keep you dancing. Next we have the title track "Sale el Sol" (in Spanish) with beautiful/strong vocals by Shakira, which makes us all want the sun to come out. "Antes de las Seis" (Spanish) is a graceful and heartfelt tune, also fourth single to the album. "Gordita" (Spanish) featuring Calle 13, is more of a rock and alternative song, which diversifies the album's genres. Followed by "Addicted to You" (Bilingual) with Shakira singing in spanish with a few ad-libs of english, Addicted to you is a dance/pop song, perfect for getting into the groove. "Lo Que Mas" opens with a enchanting piano prelude, tranquil and soft are the best words to determine Shakira's vocals and the tune. "Mariposas" (Spanish) a fun-loving song that you just want to sing-along to, "Voy a insistir, sin descansar, es una historia sin final mi amor es sobre natural" translation: "I will insist, without resisting, this is a story without an end, my love is supernatural". "Rabiosa" (English + Spanish version) featuring artists such as Pitbull and El Cata, Rabiosa is a fusion of hip-hop and merengue, to make the perfect summer hit. Next in line we have "Devoción" (Spanish), an alternative piece, full of intriguing synth patterns and drum beats. Also for the first time Shakira includes a cover of a song on her album, this track is "Islands" (in English) by the xx. Shakira's version of "Islands" is considered a soft-rock/pop song, I think that she's done a wonderful cover which you'd like to listen to by the beach and dance to. "Tu Boca" a nice song to end the album, it's a fun and easy tune to listen to. The album also includes Shakira's world cup anthem "Waka, Waka, This Time for Africa" in it's original version and K-mix. "Waka, Waka, This Time for Africa" (English + Spanish versions), the K-mix is a refreshing and enjoyable remix of the global phenomenon, the new drum beat makes it fun to rock to! To conclude Shakira has yet again captured our hearts with this amazing/astonishing album. Her bilingualism makes it easy for both English and Spanish cultures to enjoy and have a good time. From rock to pop and in-between this is one of her most meaningful album, a great-buy! Album highlights include "Lo Que Mas", "Mariposas", "Islands" and "Antes De Las Seis".… Expand
Jul 19, 2013Lo que demuestra colombia en grandes paises co Estados unidos un avance musical hermoso por parte de esta hermosa mujer...............................
Aug 12, 2013Just want to say: this album is in Spanish. I did not know this when I bought it. Only three songs are in English. The best song is "Gordita", even though it is in Spanish.
Dec 15, 2013Shakira has always been a great singer and songwriter, Sale El Sol comes as a great gift for his fans, a wonderful and worked well album, the highlights are ''Antes de Las Seis'' and a great cover of ''Islands'' by The XX.
Mar 23, 2014'Sale El Sol' is definitely one of Shakira's best albums so far. Love the latin mixes in 'Addicted To You', the rock beats in 'Tu Boca' and the alternate spirit on the cover song 'Islands'. Keep it like that Shaki!
Oct 25, 2010The album isn't as heady as She Wolf, but there's an easy charm to how Shakira deftly navigates such a mash of genres.
Oct 25, 2010Sale el Sol manages to bridge the divide between the old and new Shakira with a spark that keeps you listening to the very end.

AIDS service organization
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

AIDS service organizations are community based organizations that provide community support. While their primary function is to provide needed services to individuals with HIV, they also provide support services for their families and friends as well as conduct prevention efforts. These services may include family or individual counseling as well as HIV testing and referral resources.
In the United States of America, many AIDS service organizations provide services through federal Ryan White funding programs. Additional support usually comes from private individual and corporate donors, fundraisers (such as AIDS Walk) as well as foundations.

NE1 given birth in summer before?
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 04-09-2011 - 5:38pm
I would have always preferred to have my kids in the spring or fall.
|Sun, 04-10-2011 - 8:46am
I've delivered in both winter and summer and I LOVED being so far along in my pregnancy during the summer for these reasons:
1) Maternity clothes for summer are so much cuter than the giant sweaters that make you look a hundred times bigger in winter ; )
2) I found I did have more energy and enjoyed being outdoors with my little one (he was 17 months old when DD was born)
3) I've always had a much easier time cooling off than warming up. Park me in front of an AC with something cold to drink and I'm happy as a clam...I hate being cold, though.
4) The biggest reason I loved it so much more was that once the baby came, we didn't necessarily have to be cooped up indoors. Even though I couldn't drive for a little while (due to CS) I could sit outside or even have my sister or someone drive us around. When I delivered DS in the beginning of March, it was still too cold to enjoy the outdoors with him. The most excitement I got was grabbing a coffee and going for a long drive. At least in the summer, you can get fresh air : )
I'm super excited to be delivering in the summer again. And I'm SUPER excited about having the baby in July. This way, I'm getting at least 4 maybe even 5 weeks home with my kids before the baby comes and then a good 6 or 7 weeks home with all three of them before going back to work. Of course, I'd like that part to be longer, but I'm not going to be picky!
|Sun, 04-10-2011 - 10:00am
Well, Ive never given birth in the summer before, but I'm imagining being pregnant in the summer will be miserable. I live in a suburb of Phoenix Az, so we get 115 degree heat in July and August. Thank goodnes for air conditioning!! But, I love summer so much more that winter, I can't complain too much!
|Sun, 04-10-2011 - 10:43am
Had my DD15 end of January and was big during holidays etc..I stayed in alot last 3 weeks but i didn't mind being so big and uncomfy.
I would like having baby in early summer like i am IF i wasn't having such bad low back pain. I want to do things now that the weather is getting nicer and i feel like i won't be able to enjoy much because of the pain. i think i would be most happy to be big and pregnant and uncomfortable in the early spring (like having a baby right now). But if i didn't have the pain, i'd probably be ok with summer. I am hotter and sweatier than normal though which isnt much fun either.
|Sun, 04-10-2011 - 12:51pm
I've been obsessing with the things that I cannot participate in - 12 hour trips that I would take for a 50th Anniversary for instance... and so I am glad to hear some positives!
|Sun, 04-10-2011 - 9:27pm

I've had my kiddos in early Aug., Sept., Oct. and Jan.... (the only season I have missed is Spring)

Global attitudes on spying shift dramatically when the targets of the state's vast monitoring apparatus are suspected terrorists. Not surprisingly, a majority agree that it's acceptable to scrutinize the communications of those who would potentially do harm. Unfortunately, though, our governments have failed to show that they are capable of doing the job with care and precision.
Minister MacKay's lack of respect for Canadians is symptomatic of a government with a terrible track record on privacy issues. They continue to resist calls to take common sense steps to rein in Canada's out-of-control spy agency CSEC -- an agency that just 8 per cent of Canadians trust with their private information, according to a recent poll. The CSEC was caught red-handed collecting hugely sensitive information about law-abiding Canadian air travellers, and storing our private information in giant, insecure databases to be shared with their U.S. partners at the NSA.
There are few rights more important in any healthy democracy than the right to privacy. When citizens believe they are being watched, their willingness to engage in democratic debate is eroded, which in turn undermines our whole democratic process. Yet we clearly have a privacy deficit in this country.
Yes, there have always been spies and espionage, all with the aim of stopping some calamity, the existential threats. But thanks to Snowden, the computer geek with the highest levels of clearance, we now know the U.S. has turned its giant spying apparatus on its own people. We also know, thanks to Snowden, that the Harper government is a willing participant and keen to add to our rapidly ballooning surveillance state. And future consequences may be dire.
It looks like the rumble against the government's Online Spying Bill C-13 is turning into a roar. We hope that pressure from Canadians will encourage Conservative MPs to start speaking out about the hugely unpopular blanket spying measures in Bill C-13. They should put both public and private pressure on Defence Minister MacKay to split the bill and remove the online spying provisions. Tens of thousands of Canadians are now speaking out to demand an end to online spying, and new privacy rules to safeguard law-abiding Canadians from government surveillance. It's never been more important to keep up the pressure.
What if Edward Snowden was Canadian? Would his sacrifice have been for naught? The government is spying on Canadians without warrants and nobody seems to care. As a child, I was taught that a democracy cannot invade the privacy of its citizens without consulting a court. As an adult, I fear we are no longer living in a democracy. But Canadians are not powerless. It's time to get angry.
Sociologists say that unless you're a tech aficionado, it's hard to care about government spying that doesn't affect your daily life. For most white, middle-class people, data gathering seems abstract. We can't see it happen and the only manifestation is a targeted ad on our Gmail that we might dismiss with a "well, that's creepy." For poor people, surveillance is an everyday reality.
This morning I spoke before The House of Commons' Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights and shared my thoughts on Bill C-13. I know there are concerns with C-13 and believe me, if there was something better on the table I'd be all over it. There isn't, not that I can see. Police have to have the ability to act fast when it comes to cyber-crime or their response is pointless. Our children's rights and privacy is already being violated -- violated by some of the sickest people you can imagine. If it's a choice between them and the police I'm siding with the police.
On Monday afternoon, the government's reckless online spying Bill C-13 came a small step closer to becoming the law of the land. It didn't get through without a lively debate which saw many MPs speak out strongly about how Bill C-13 would enable a wide range of government authorities to spy on the private lives of Canadians.
All the tools I recommend are open source, means you don't have to trust me, you can download the source code and look at it yourself before using it. They are absolutely required for protecting your personal, and business data from unauthorized eavesdropping, which happens by default for anything you do online.
It starts to feel like a no win situation, or as Mr. Polonetsky puts it, as though "the data genie is out of the bottle" and there is no turning back. Following the NSA leaks it became clear that Big Brother was watching, and listening -- but so are thousands of little brothers and sisters -- as anyone with smartphone in his or her pocket now holds a powerful surveillance device.
It was a Victoria day like any other until I found out the Canadian government has been vigorously spying on several Canadian organizations that work for environmental protections and democratic rights. My colleagues and I had been wary of being spied on for a long time, but having it confirmed still took the wind out of me.
The idea of a stranger listening to our phone calls, monitoring our Internet searches, reading our emails, trawling our social media accounts. These things are not only possible, but thanks to government fear mongering feeding our increased tolerance for supervision in a post-9/11 world, they're also entirely legal. Welcome to modern Canada.
We've learned an incredible amount about how governments scheme, conspire, collude, connive and lie, both to each other and to the people who elected them. Which is why my nomination for the next Nobel Peace Prize is WikiLeaks and its three great whistleblowers -- Julian Assange, Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden.
As more and more of our personal information circulates online, is stored in the cloud, or is moved about on USBs and other portable devices, it's essential that we make sure those data flows are secure. While governments have been quick to respond to this increased ability to conduct surveillance, they have not been so enthusiastic about creating and enforcing protections for innocent citizens.

Four-times World Superbike champion Carl Fogarty has just picked up a Ducati Diavel and he will be keeping it through the summer months.
Foggy has borrowed a black Diavel from Ducati Manchester and reckons he will be calling the dealership every day for the next few weeks to be reminded how the bike works thanks to the array of technology fitted.

It will be interesting to see what he makes of it... Saw one at the Carole Smash bike show a few weeks ago and i think it was the most impressive bike at the show.. considering Kawasaki don't take part so still no sight of the new ZX10R ... Suzuki had no new 2011 GSXR600 - 750 at the show or even a GSR750 ... So yes the Duke was the best thing at a disappointing €15 a ticket show...

By Marshall Connolly (Catholic Online)
2/21/2014 (9 months ago)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
A priceless parish church in Buffalo, New York has been spared the wrecking ball, for now, thanks to the advocacy of its parishioners. St. Ann's parish in Buffalo, NY, was slated for "deconsecration" after the diocese concluded it could not finance the repair of the church and consolidated its parish communities.
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - It required help from the Vatican, but St. Ann's church in Buffalo, NY, has been spared the wrecking ball, at least for now. The beautiful church was built in 1886 and is considered a priceless treasure of architecture and faith. Unfortunately, in a world of limited resources there really is no such thing as priceless, from an accounting perspective.
Facing a potential bill exceeding $12 million for repair and renovation of the structure, the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo made the difficult decision to deconsecrate the church and put the building on the market. A buyer would have the option of converting the structure to secular use or to demolish it altogether.
St. Ann, pray for us!
Concerned parishioners appealed to the Vatican, suing the diocese in a Vatican court to stop the proposed liquidation of St. Ann's. Thankfully and prayerfully, they won.
A decree was issued by the Vatican that forbids the use of the structure for anything other than religious purposes. It also forbids conversion of the church by developers. Therefore, St. Ann's will have to remain a church, as intended.
Still, the diocese has pledged that it will appeal the decision to the Apostolic Signatura, which is the Vatican equivalent of the Supreme Court.
The parish community of St. Ann's has already been folded into a neighboring parish.
The Catholic Church has enjoyed explosive growth in various parts of the world, but has suffered decline in the United States. Only recently, with the publicity and popularity of Pope Francis, have attendance numbers in some places apparently reversed a downward trend.
As a way of managing decline, some diocese have made the painful decision to shutter some locations and to sell property. Sadly, some of those churches, like St. Ann's are beautiful examples of 19th century American architecture and do not deserve to meet a wrecking-ball. Nor should they be converted to secular use, which is quintessentially profane.
A restaurant, apartments, shopping, perhaps a wrecking ball, really?!

Dear Friends and Family,
We hope this letter finds you well. We had a great summer, having quality time with Noriko's family, the families from Yoshiki's kindergarten, and our co-missionaries (from all over Japan) at the annual conference in August. Now our children are back to school full time and we are back to our normal routine of ministry work.
Home Assignment Needs
We will be soon purchasing our tickets for the U.S. and at this time our plan is to leave Japan on the first of March. We will be spending a couple of weeks in Illinois with Chad's family before heading to Dayton, Ohio where we hope to be living for the majority of the time. We currently are in need of finding a place to live for that six months, so if you know of any furnished places we could stay, please let us know.
Yuki's education is one of our biggest concerns during our home assignment. Please pray for the Lord's work of grace in this area — that she will not fall too far behind both in English and Japanese study. Since the school year will be close to an end when we arrive in the States, we are hoping to get some part-time English tutoring help two to three days a week. If you know of a college student or a teacher who would have some time to help Yuki in reading and writing, please let us know. When it comes with her Japanese study, we are prayerfully looking into options of home schooling or/and enrolling her in the Japanese Saturday school in Troy Ohio to keep her at pace for her return to Japan in fall.
As we shared with you in our last letter, we are in need of raising a large amount of monthly support before returning to Japan. We would like to continue to ask for your prayers regarding making new connections with more churches and individuals. It is still too early to start scheduling appointments, but would you please prayerfully consider how you can assist us in getting us connected with your church or small groups?
Praise and Prayer Service
As we shared with you in the past, Noriko has been leading Praise and Prayer Service regularly at SonRise church and she just led one a few weeks ago. Many of you have joined in our prayer that this service may provide a great encouragement and support for the faith of our church members, and that it may also serve as a great testimony to unbelievers present. We were very encouraged to hear one of the unbelieving seekers in our church telling Noriko after the service that the testimony/praise item that she shared touched his heart in a very special way. He is beginning to understand that Christianity is about a relationship with our God as a result of seeing our church members' example of seeking Him in prayer not only during our difficult times, but also during our joyous times in thanksgiving as well. Noriko will lead another Praise and Prayer Service again in both November and December, so we would appreciate your continued prayer for eternal impact upon both believers and unbelievers in our church through this ministry.
Preparation for Christmas
Christmas will be here before you know it and it is never too early to start giving our thoughts and prayers toward preparation. Sarah (a co-missionary of ours) and Noriko have started to pray and plan towards Christmas, seeking God's way on how we can effectively reach out to the families from the parenting course and from Yoshiki's kindergarten during this Christmas. So please pray that Noriko's teamwork with Sarah in the upcoming months would be strengthened and guided in every step of their upcoming Christmas outreach.
Transition in the Office
The Business Manager, Steven, returned from home assignment (furlough) and has taken back most of the finance responsibilities that Chad was doing during his absence. Chad has kept some of the bookkeeping responsibilities that best fit his abilities and skills.
Starting in October, Steven and Chad will start planning how best to prepare the office for our home assignment. This will mean training replacements and putting projects on hold until our return. Please pray for the Lord's guiding hand throughout this whole process and that Chad may finish well, fulfilling and caring for all the responsibilities given him during this first term of missionary service.
Chad and Noriko
Prayer Requests
- Please pray for the Lord's timely provisions towards our different home assignment needs (written above) and for our new connection with more churches and individuals for our support raising.
- Please continue to pray for the Praise and Prayer Service that Noriko leads at our church, that it may make an eternal impact upon the lives of our church members.
- Please pray for Noriko & Sarah's Christmas outreach preparation in the upcoming months, that their work may be strengthened and guided every step of the way.
- Please pray for the Lord's guiding hand as Chad and Steven prepare the office for our home assignment, that Chad would finish well, fulfilling and caring for all the responsibilities given him in the TEAM Japan office during this first term of his missionary service.

Winter's grasp continues to linger across much of the Midwest, forcing some farmers to wait for a thaw.
Before they can plant corn, soil temperatures need to rise toward 50 degrees, which could take a while given the fact that many fields in the Upper Midwest still have frost that extends a foot or more into the soil.
Despite a potentially slow start this year, few farmers are worried about being able to plant their crop. As technology and equipment have improved during the last few decades, farmers have been able to plant their crops more quickly, making delays less threatening than they had been in the past.
Unable to get into the fields much this week, many farmers were closely watching the USDA's monthly supply and demand Report released Wednesday, which showed increasing projections for U.S. corn exports.
In the wake of the report, corn prices popped to a seven-month high of $5.19 per bushel. In the coming weeks, planting progress and weather will likely remain in focus for corn traders, producers and end users.
Gasoline prices higher
Gasoline prices leapt to a one-month high this week, pulled higher by tight supplies and spillover support from high crude-oil prices.
National gasoline inventories are currently running a bit below average, and the U.S. Department of Energy is projecting moderately higher fuel demand this year, helping to push prices higher by more than 10 cents per gallon this week.
Meanwhile, crude-oil prices have been rising because of increasing threats of tension between Ukraine and Russia. Conflict could lead to sanctions against Russia, which would reduce the flow of oil from Russia to other countries, a factor that boosted crude-oil prices by $3 per barrel this week.
Gloomy outlook for Florida's oranges
This week, the USDA released its updated projections for Florida's orange crop, predicting the smallest crop since 1985.
The Sunshine State's orange production this year is expected to be 110 million boxes (90 pounds each), down 25 percent during the last two years.
The drop in production is being attributed to a bacterial infection known as citrus greening, which causes trees to wither and prematurely drop fruit.
Dry conditions in southern Florida are also weakening the orange trees' natural resistance to disease, exacerbating the damage.
As a result of the sour outlook, the futures market for frozen concentrated orange juice exploded this week, pushing to more than $1.66 per pound, a two-year high.
