The Village for Families and
Our Mission
To build a community of strong, healthy families who protect and nurture children.
- At The Village, children, families and adults find the hope they need to believe that their lives are meaningful. Through innovative specialized care, they find the help that is necessary for moving forward.
- Our custom programs help clients move barriers and empower them to live healthier, more satisfying and stable lives. But helping clients to believe in themselves does not happen overnight.
- Our unwavering dedication and connections with clients helps them achieve real and meaningful change – for themselves and ultimately the community as a whole.
- We continue to grow and evolve to better serve the needs of our community, most recently by taking a larger role in the health care arena by adding mental health and substance abuse services for adults and partnering with primary care service providers to form integrated pediatric clinics.
- Because it's better to help families before problems occur – and in their own community – we have home- and school-based programs to help children succeed and to support their parents, including helping them to be financially stable. We even help moms before they give birth, and then afterward to bond with their babies. Our preschool program helps children develop in all ways – socially, emotionally and prepares them to enter school ready to learn.
Areas We Serve
Greater Hartford and surrounding towns, Manchester, Meriden, Middletown and Vernon
Fundraising Events

Foursomes for Fatherhood, June
Fathers have tremendous influence on the positive growth and development of their children. The Foursomes for Fatherhood Golf Classic supports programming that provides dads with the skills and support they need to get and stay involved in their children's lives.
The Village's One-on-One Mentoring program offers youth ages 14-18 who are in foster care and young adults ages 18-21 who have continued their involvement with the Department of Children and Families (DCF) a nurturing relationship with a stable adult who can provide guidance and support in setting and meeting goals. These youth are bright, resilient, eager and hopeful. They need support, friendship, love, encouragement and patience to realize their full potential. Learn more: www.thevillage.org/program/one-on-one-mentoring
The Village's Second Chance Shops in Glastonbury, Simsbury and Suffield are run entirely by volunteer Auxilians. All proceeds from the shops, which sell new and gently used clothing and household items, support The Village. Volunteers commit a few hours each month to staff the store and organize merchandise. Leadership opportunities are also available. Learn more at: www.thevillage.org/about-us/auxilians
The Village is always seeking new foster families. In times of trouble, we lean on family and friends. For many foster children, that support network doesn't exist. You can change that. By opening your home to a foster child, you can provide safety, stability, structure and kindness. You have what it takes, and we provide extensive training and ongoing support. We are here to help 24 hours a day, every day. Learn more here.
The Village's work is often complicated and multifaceted, but your gift doesn't have to be.
There are many ways to give. Online donations offer the most immediate impact, but we are always grateful to our supporters who recognize the importance of ongoing, permanent support by establishing a dedicated fund in our endowment targeted to the population or program that you designate. Others choose to name The Village as a beneficiary in their estate plans or retirement funds. We can also help you establish life income gifts such as charitable remainder trusts (CRTs), charitable lead trusts (CLTs) and charitable gift annuities (CGAs). However you choose to give to The Village, your gift helps children, adults and families achieve real and meaningful change in their lives.
Our Uniform Drive runs in August to collect donations that help families purchase school uniforms so their children can start the school year ready to learn. In December, we accept donations of new, unwrapped toys, gift cards and household items for our Holiday Giving Tree drive.

Admittedly not the most prolific day I've ever had, but that's what comes of afternoon naps. Do as I say, not as I do.
The word counter I've been using since I started this novel is the NaNoWriMo Word Meter. I've tried NaNo several years in a row, but never managed to complete one. I think my highest wordcount was 5k. I attribute this to two things:
- NaNo is held in November, which is the worst of all possible times for students to take up writing 1667 words a day. At least, not 1667 words of stuff that isn't term papers and exams.
- I am just really, really bad at deadlines. I'm getting better! I've never missed a deadline in the two years I've been at university! But when your professor isn't looming over you promising hellfire and failing grades should you fail to turn in ten pages on the life of Catherine Tekakwitha, the deadline just lacks that extra oomph.
Number #2 (heh) is a big part of why I started this blog. In 2011, when I signed up for a fanfic challenge to write a fic of at least 15k over the course of a summer, I used the same word counter when updating on Livejournal, and I found it helped when trying to motivate myself. It's easy to get discouraged when you're just staring at the wordcount at the bottom of the Word document; it helps a lot to watch that colour bar inch ever closer to the finish line, whispering "soon, my precious . . . sooooooooooooon."
The other helpful thing, I find, is the percentage calculation. Which is a bit odd, because if you had suggested to me before I started using the word counter that I would be comforted by a percentage, I would have laughed in your face and possibly spit on you and cursed your descendents. I hate math. Haaaaaaaate it. I hate arithmetic. I hate multiplication and division. I hate algebra. I hate calculus. I even hate numbers. Like the number 2, what does it think it's fooling? I can feel it laughing at me. I see that sarcastic upper curve there. My hate extends yea verily to the very first caveperson who invented the concept of numbers. I don't know who or where they are, but I hope they feel very guilty about it.
And yet . . . percentages! They calm me! I think it's a matter of perspective, honestly. Looking at "6445 out of 50, 000" is a good inducement to taking up drinking. Looking at "13%" is much more encouraging. I'm in the double digits! I'm in the teens! And I'm only on Chapter Four! Maybe I can do this after all.
But I haven't forgiven the number 2. Smug bastard.

Within the past month, it became apparent that the Cavs were dead in the water as constructed. The only question that remained was how far they were willing to go to change their fortunes. As we found out Thursday, the answer was "pretty damn far." The team tied its own NBA trade deadline day record, sending out six players in three deals and bringing in four new faces. WFNY's Jeff Nomina joins Tom and Travis to discuss how a front office under fire for months stood up and overhauled a fractured roster to rebuild the team's culture. Whether it is enough to overcome the Warriors (…or Rockets?) remains to be seen for now.
Plus: The guys wrap up the show with a salute to WFNY on its 10th anniversary.

|Surprised Jordan Capt who served his mission in Manassas, VA!
|Tie burning ceremony!
|Serious fuel!
|6 months as a missionary!
So this has been a very interesting and eventful week. I found out I was getting transferred and I had to say my goodbyes to all the families I'd gotten close to. I've met and come to love so many people in Spanish Fork. Fortunately, I'm not too far from there, and many said they would come visit me!
Then, transfer day came. I was scrambling that morning to gather the rest of my belongings and squeeze it into my suitcase. (Note to self: buy more space bags next time) gosh those things are miracle workers. Anyways, we stuck my bags in the car and off we went to Provo.
There I got to see a lot of my missionary friends who were also there for transfers. Chatted with them and caught up. Eventually, we moved into the chapel. We all sat down and began. President McCune introduced the rookies and assigned them to their trainers. THROWBACK! After that the assignments began. They started with Eastern Utah and the Uintah Basin Zones...I was a little bummed because I wanted to go out there. Nope, we got to the Timpanogos Zone and President called me up and assigned me to the Grove Creek area with Elder Greenacre. We did our usual bro hug and off we went into the gym to collect my belongings. There I found out who was in my zone and district. Let's just say there are going to be very fun zone activities and training meetings! What I thought was kind of neat was that one of my Zone Leaders in Spanish Fork, Elder Jiles, is now my Zone Leader here in Pleasant Grove! Pretty happy about that. So after the conversing and goodbyes, we took my stuff out to our car. Super stoked we have a car! It's a 2013 Chevy Malibu LS! Pretty nice car. Spacious and comfortable!
Elder Greenacre is the designated driver so I'm just along for the ride. Can't tell if I like the break or if I want to drive. Oh well. It will eventually turn to me.
We got back in our area and began doing what we do best. I met some really cool families and was asked all of the usual questions. Name? Where are you from? How long have you been out? Where have you served in the past? Family? Girlfriend? Lol pretty happy I left all sort of relationships at home. That night we got back to the apartment and I unpacked everything. We live with the Walker family. They're an older couple and we live in the basement but we share the middle floor. It's really nice here!
So let me tell you a little bit about my companion. His name is Elder Greenacre. He's from Bournemouth England. He's been out almost a year. He has served in Payson, Orem, and here.
Let me tell you a little bit about our area. Pleasant Grove is kind of like Woodbridge. It's ALL suburb. Personally, it's a little big for me. I preferred Spanish Fork just because of how small it is mixed with rural living. Yeah but I'll manage. It's a good area! Plenty of work for us. Lots of people to meet. Yeah!
So as you may know, I hit my 6 month mark! I guess you saw that pic on Facebook. We went over to our "mom and dad's" house and burnt our ties. The only reason Elder Greenacre is burning his is because he never did it at his 6 month mark. Pretty soon here though he'll be burning a shirt to celebrate his year mark! So Lee and
Crystal Edwards are our mission area parents. They really take care of us and help us out. It's super nice having people like them! I love them already!
What else....yesterday we taught one of the ward's youth group's how to teach the Plan Of Salvation. What was really cool was one of the youth brought their non-member friend and afterwards she asked for one of the pamphlets so hopefully we'll be able to teach her soon! Also, yesterday, I went and saw Elder Capt. It was so chill seeing him again! I missed that guy! Poor dude messed himself up doing a trick snowboarding yesterday. He thinks he broke his foot. Made me miss shredding the edge with Jason, Jeff, and Aric and doing cartwheel
after cartwheel. Apparently he went with Elder Edgington and Elder Musso! Remember them?! Yeah it was cool.
Anyways...I think that about sums up the fun of this week! I'm hopefully going to snag some piano sheet music this week. Elder Greenacre is really good at guitar so we're hoping we can pull something together!
Anyways...until next week! Love you all!
-Elder Ahrens

Should the Pope be tried for crimes against humanity?
Mercator Net, Michael Cook | Friday, 9 April 2010
A United Nations jurist wants to put Benedict XVI in the dock for condoning sex-abuse. The real question is, how many others should be there with him?
A prominent Australian-British human rights lawyer and United Nations jurist has suggested that the Pope be put on trial for crimes against humanity. I think that this is a brilliant idea.
Geoffrey Robertson outlined his scheme in The Guardian and a number of Australian newspapers. Although he feels strongly that the Vatican is fraudulently representing itself as an independent country, the Pope should be brought to account for systematic abuse of human rights during his pontificate. Since 2002, he points out, heads of state are no longer immune from prosecution before the International Criminal Court. For instance, a warrant has been issued for the arrest of the president of the Sudan, Omar al-Bashir, for crimes against humanity and war crimes.
In Pope Benedict's case, Robertson argues that this includes sexual abuse of minors:

Inspectors have found serious failings in college business and management courses including out-of-touch teaching and course material, writes Alan Thomson.
A Further Education Funding Council inspection report said that, while much of the teaching was competent, many lessons lacked purpose, staff lacked up-to-date commercial and industrial experience, libraries lacked books and that many students drop out while others fail their exams.
The report is a blow to further education colleges which have tried hard to meet the growing demand for business, administration and management courses with diminishing financial resources.
Colleges estimate a 28 per cent increase in business students between 1994/95 and 1998/99. In addition, they have had to incorporate the new national vocational and general national vocational qualifications into curricula.
The report said that, while most staff were well qualified for the work they did, many were new to the role and were inadequately trained.
It says that a common weakness was the lack of commercial and industrial experience among full-time lecturers. Opportunities to update knowledge were limited and, even if they were provided, few lecturers take advantage.

The new Midsummer Fire Festival-themed Tavern Brawl for the Blizzard Entertainment's card game Tavern Brawl kept its fans warm since July 5. It features a unique gimmick where a neutral, invulnerable minion rains damage on the board while forcing players to defeat each other. Here's how to use the special mode's new gimmicks to your advantage.
The Game Mode
Like a few other Tavern Brawls, the Ragnaros' Fire Festival will require players to build a deck out of their own cards for it. The card pool is set to "Wild" which means obsolete cards removed out of Standard play can be used. For now, make sure to bring many low-cost minions to feed the Tavern Brawl's gimmick.
Feeding Mini Rag'
In the game mode, players will have a "Mini Rag'" unit that switches sides per turn. The unit randomly spreads its damage throughout all of a player's minions and hero character. The gimmick may sound like an annoying piece but it's actually an unreliable ally at most.
Aside from being a neutral damaging unit, Lil' Ragnaros adds one Attack stat per kill which means he'll grow stronger if you give him low-cost units to kill. Usually, low-cost units have low health which makes it easy to boost his damage. The event requires both players to stack the highest Mini Rag' attack as they can to get its best rewards.
Cosmetic Rewards
The rewards for this event could be underwhelming as they just augment your "Wow" emote to have fireworks. Most of the time, you'll lose matches it's difficult to survive Mini Rag's salvo of damage each turn. The Tavern Brawl actually tracks your progression so you're likely to get all of these rewards. The fireworks level can be obtained on racking 8, 30, and 60 recorded kills with Mini Rag'. These Wow emote upgrades can be brought to other game modes outside the Tavern Brawl.
Just Get The Card Pack
If you're not up for the reward, just play aggressively and hit your enemy as much as you can. The Tavern Brawl slightly encourages players to not hit each other to maximize the Mini Rag' stacks for each other. However, you must win the match if you want the usual card pack reward for clearing Tavern Brawls. Feel free to rely on Mini Rag', have damaging spells in your deck or overwhelm your foes with damage to win the fight.

The most mysterious places on the planet
Around the world there are many places that fascinate and even scare its mystery. These seats look unusual, they are unusual events.

The oldest artifacts in the world
Mankind has always had a special thrill in relation to the creations of our imagination and intellect. In General, this is true, because such artifacts distinguish us from animals, and we are proud of:
The oldest extant European book
Which of the extant books is the oldest? It's a complicated issue, given the fact, the very definition of the word "book" has caused a number of debates. However, it was recognized that the oldest book preserved in perfect condition, is the gospel of St. Cuthbert. This book is leather bound in red, written in the 7th century. In 2012, the British library of London paid her $ 14 million the Belgian congregation of the Jesuits. Its fully digitized version can be found on the Internet. The book is a copy of the gospel of John, written in northeastern England for Saint Cuthbert, and then placed in his coffin. When the Vikings began their first raids on these places, the local monastic community left his abode and together with the coffin of St. Cuthbert moved to Durham. The coffin was opened in 1104, when the construction of a new Church dedicated to this Saint. Since then the book was passed from hand to hand until it came to the Jesuits. Continue reading
Hyperborea – a mysterious country
I thought that now a lot said and written about Lemuria and Atlantis. They were, they sank in different parts of the world, at different times. But there is another unexplored country which they say is much smaller and, oddly enough, even though she has not sunk, but we know very little about it. Was she actually? If was, where? What were the mores and customs? What kind of people lived in it? And a lot of other issues in which I propose to deal in this thread.
Mysterious Hyperborea
Hyperborea, a mythical Northern ancient civilization, the mother of all living peoples. A beautiful legend. No, not so. Hyperborea – historical reality. The perfect civilization, not knowing wars and gave rise to scientific knowledge about the world. There were some in our latitudes. Yes, both versions have supporters. I saw this at the scientific-practical conference "my Motherland – Hyperborea", which was held recently in Apatity. Its initiators were made by the Murmansk regional public organization "New city" and the Commission scientific tourism Russkogovoryaschego society. Continue reading

How Do You Communicate?
|You Communicate With Your Ears
You love conversations, both as a listener and a talker.
What people say is important to you, and you're often most affected by words, not actions.
You love to hear complements from others. And when you're upset, you often talk to yourself.
Music is very important to you. It's difficult to find you without your iPod.

Arriva London invite the bus minister to drive a bus for Catch the Bus Week
Catch the Bus Week is a nationwide campaign aimed at driving awareness of the benefits of taking the bus.
To help Arriva celebrate this initiative, Andrew Jones, the minister for buses, was invited to Arriva London's Brixton garage to meet the staff who work hard to ensure the buses run on time, and to have a sample driving lesson in a New Routemaster from Theo Farmer, one of Arriva London's driving instructors.
Catch the Bus Week is a unique and fun initiative to show people the benefits of what can hopefully lead to long term travel change. Britain has a valuable opportunity to harness the potential of the bus, to make the economy stronger, help the job market work better and to build a more inclusive society.
Arriva London carries over one million passengers a day in London, and is always looking for ways to improve its customer relations and encourage more users. For more information about Catch the Bus Week go to www.catchthebusweek.co.uk

One day I had a call from Jo , at the Moulin de Grolhier "Are you having this duck then, or what?' she asked. The duck in question was 'Pekka'. His featherbrained parents had conceived him at the wrong time of year and so Jo had taken him in as a hatchling as she feared he wouldn't survive the winter. He had been raised in their home, at times sleeping in Ted's slipper and although still young had already begun to display his characterful personality. The other ducks at the Moulin had no time for his histrionics and so he was looking to be rehomed. I had no recollection of agreeing to take the duck, it may have happened after a glass or two of red, but I liked the idea so a date was set for his arrival and I charged Bob with making a duckhouse. This would be placed on the island at the lake which was to become his new realm. At this stage, he was still fluffy yellow, his sexuality had not been confirmed, so we took him to see the old crone who sells ducklings at the market. I wanted to buy him some companions but didn't want to be overrun with new ducks so I was thinking a same sex group would be good. The Crone confirmed he was a female. Jo looked sceptical - he already had a huge 'alpha male' attitude but this woman sexed ducks all day for a living so we re-christened him Pekkarina, bought two female ducklings and thought all was well. Pekka and the ladies were moved into their new home and that, we thought, was that. You know what's coming. The muscovy ducks are strange looking beasts, half duck, half pterydactyl with a warty red head. The males are much larger that the females and it was soon obvious from his behaviour that Pekka was indeed a boy. Those poor girls!
I wouldn't say he was tame exactly, but he definitely liked being around people. Although he didn't seem to be too keen on men he liked kids and was quite happy to spend time with them out on the raft. Sometimes his hissing antics would get too much and he'd have to be coralled into the privvy with a paddle to shut him up. Other times he'd sit quite contentedly and liked to be stroked. He could fly, but he never really mastered the art of landing and would roar into the shore too fast, make a pig's ear of the touchdown and then waddle about as though he meant to do it that way. He was a just a crazy, mixed up duck.
Sadly, one winter, the lake froze over and so when foxy came a-calling they had nowhere to run. Three piles of feathers were all that remained. I felt so guilty that I'd not protected them, I just didn't think and anyway he seemed so formidable. We still miss him. I don't know how many ducks get remembered, but we all remember Pekka.

Borderless skies above me ...
Kulturzentrum Ostpreußen, Ellingen
April 2 nd - July 24 th 2011
What does homeland mean to you? I ask 11 persons from Poland, Lithuania and Russia, which today live in the historical region of East Prussia. Now, in the context of a cross-border project, the exhibition in the Kulturzentrum Ostpreußen addresses the topic of homeland between proximity and distance, home and border fence, and as a process of global development.
From the beginning of April till the end of July 2011, they provided us with an insight into their experience of homeland – in the form of photos, which they continued to send to Ellingen in Franconia. Here they were integrated into a spatial installation: an exhibition in progress. The creation of the photo series and the change processes of the installation in the exhibition rooms of the Kulturzentrum Ostpreußen can be seen on the project website.
A video installation shows clouds moving across a particularly expressive and – limitless – sky from the Weichsel lowlands over the Ermland region and as far as Kaliningrad/Königsberg. Six film makers from Poland, Russia and Germany let their cameras roll for the film.
Participants were Danas Andriulionis, Klaipėda/Memel, Lithuania; Oleg Blyablyas, Kaliningrad/Königsberg, Russia; Egidija Brinkytė, Klaipėda/Memel, Lithuania; Jurate Bucmyte, Juodkrantė/Schwarzort u.

A coupla things here
Born in 1506 and baptized Francisco; he was a Spanish nobleman (sound familiar?) from the Navarre region, the town of Javier (why the Js turn to Xs is a mystery). He studied and then taught philosophy at the University of Paris, and he had planned to be a professor. However, his friend Saint Ignatius of Loyola convinced him to use his energy and talents to preach the Gospel. Thus he became one of the founding Jesuits, and the first Jesuit missionary.
He was in Goa, India, waiting for passage on a ship, he preached in the street, worked with the sick, and taught children the Catechism.
But, being a Jesuit, he wasn't content with spiritual works alone. In a study of true justice (social or otherwise) he admonished his patron, King Juan of Portugal, over slavery*: "It upsets me to know that at the hour of your death you may be ordered out of Paradise."
As a tireless missionary, he spent a decade in India, the East Indies, and in Japan, baptizing over 40,000 converts. He went wherever the Spirit told him to go, meeting with tribes of head hunters, caring for lepers, catechizing in India or baptizing 10,000 in a single month. He went on long sea voyages -- in those days that meant being cheek-by-jowl with a zillion others with no, er, plumbing -- enduring harsh extremes of heat and cold. Everywhere he went he would seek out and help the needy and the marginalized.
His zeal for the Gospel can be encapsulated by this prayer he composed:
Eternal God, Creator of all things, remember that You alone has created the souls of unbelievers, which You have made according to Your Image and Likeness. Behold, O Lord, how to Your dishonor many of them are falling into Hell. Remember, O Lord, Your Son Jesus Christ, Who so generously shed His Blood and suffered for them. Do not permit that Your Son, Our Lord, remain unknown by unbelievers, but, with the help of Your Saints and the Church, the Bride of Your Son, remember Your mercy, forget their idolatry and infidelity, and make them know Him, Who You have sent, Jesus Christ, Your Son, Our Lord, Who is our salvation, our life, and our resurrection, through Whom we have been saved and redeemed, and to Whom is due glory forever. Amen.He traveled thousands upon thousands of miles, mostly barefoot, preaching the Good News with his gift of tongues. He died in 1552 at Sanxian, China of "the fever" which he contracted on a mission journey.
One of the cool things about Jesuits is that when they are "away" they send letters with great frequency to report on their doings. St. Francis Xavier was no different [emphasis mine]:
Beatified 25 October 1619 by Pope Paul V
We have visited the villages of the new converts who accepted the Christian religion a few years ago. The country is so utterly barren and poor. The native Christians have no priests. They know only that they are Christians. There is nobody to say Mass for them; nobody to teach them the Creed, the Our Father, the Hail Mary and the Commandments of God's Law.
I have not stopped since the day I arrived. I conscientiously made the rounds of the villages. I bathed in the sacred waters all the children who had not yet been baptized. This means that I have purified a very large number of children so young that, as the saying goes, they could not tell their right hand from their left. The older children would not let me say my Office or eat or sleep until I taught them one prayer or another. Then I began to understand: "The kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
I could not refuse so devout a request without failing in devotion myself. I taught them, first the confession of faith in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; then the Apostles' Creed, the Our Father, and Hail Mary. I noticed among them persons of great intelligence. If only someone could educate them in the Christian way of life, I have no doubt that they would make excellent Christians.
Many, many people hereabouts are not becoming Christians for one reason only: there is nobody to make them Christians.
I wish they university students would work as hard at converting these people as
they do at their books, and so settle their account with God for their learning and the talents entrusted to them. This thought would certainly stir most of them to meditate on spiritual realities, to listen actively to what God is saying to them. They would forget their own desires, their human affairs, and give themselves over entirely to God's will and His choice. They would cry out with all their heart: "Lord, I am here! What do you want me to do?" Send me anywhere you like - even to India!

2) The other thing is today's Mass readings. The lovely and gracious Karen reports the miracle of the loaves and fishes is her youngest's favorite in all of Scripture. The lad has a point, because it is the only miracle (Resurrection aside) that is mentioned in all four Gospels. I like the extra little flourish in St. John's, when you get the back story of how they got the loaves and fishes in the first place: a little boy had brought them. It was all this kid had and he trustingly gave it all to Jesus...and in return wound up with basketfuls of bread and fish in return.
"To such as these..."
* Take THAT, those of you who think the Church used to be in favor of slavery.

Good information.
I came across many queries in several forums where people have been asking for advice on the best glue that can be used on nails and that is not only strong but also safe on nails. This was the same question I had sometime back when I used to apply nail gel myself. Initially the glue I got would never hold on the way it used to when done in the salon. I then came across the nail glue being sold on gel-nails which lasts very long and is pretty easy to apply. It provides a strong bonding for my nails and also does a great job in repairing the nail tips.
Most important of all is that this is strong glue I was actually looking out for and this is used by nail salons and nail artists for professional applications. It is available at a cheap price at gel-nails and I remember seeing it at a discount of 74% which is great. Maybe this can help if you also face problems relating to poor glue quality as I did earlier.

Title: The Ask and The Answer
Author: Patrick Ness
Series: Chaos Walking trilogy
Publication date: May 2009
Rating: Four and a half stars.
*Synopsis from back of book*
"Fleeing before a relentless army, Todd and Viola once again face their worst enemy, Mayor Prentiss.
Immediately imprisoned and separated from Viola, Todd is forced to learn the ways of the Mayor's new order.
And then, one day, the bombs begin to explode... "
The action starts straight away, sensible considering the MASSIVE cliffhanger of the last book. This one has some truly cracking moments. Bombs, rebellion, more bombs...
I felt so conflicted when Todd and Viola got sucked up into the grizzly worlds of The Ask and The Answer...separately. Plus with the impending arrival of Viola's ship it's all super tense. I didn't think there were any lengthy boring gaps where I thought it was drab because a hell of a lot goes on, especially because it's told from Todd and Viola's viewpoint - and different things are happening with them both. New Prentisstown becomes a town of war and terror under the influence of two opposing sides, and is completely victimised as both aim for victory.
Todd is transformed by so much in this story, and I feel sorry and simultaneously pissed off at him a lot of the time. He has to deal with his feelings for the spackle and their's for him, the pressure of the Mayor's influence, and spending everyday with Davy Prentiss. Viola practically shines in this book, her true strength of character blossoms as she battles through loss and mistrust. Their relationship also blossoms, it's just lovely. It's not overly romantic but it's quite clear that they centre around each other a lot despite all that fights against them and apparent betrayal.
There are so many fantastic characters in this books, fantastic in terms of their presence and totalitarian personalities. And it's really hard hitting, but I thought this was a great second instalment and I wasn't disappointed, though it was nothing like I thought it was going to be. I really hope that in the next book we hear more about Lee, because I felt like he was more of a plot tool than someone relevant, but I really want to hear how it turns out for him.

Rimmel used giant freeze-framed bottles of 'Quick Dry' nail polish in the streets of London for their latest ad campaign. The idea is to promote the ultra-fast speed at which the product dries. The surreal sculptures were placed right outside stores in a busy retail area an attempt to "literally stop young women in their tracks."
Rimmel, with their ad agency JWT of London, has also created smaller eye-catching versions of the pouring polish for use right at the cosmetics counter.
I think the larger pieces would look amazing in a spa or salon--what a way to draw guests' attention!

Eating Fish May Help Antidepressants Work Better
A new study from researchers in the Netherlands shows that increased consumption of fish can help the brain respond positively to a common variety of antidepressants known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
In most countries, SSRIs are the most common kind of drug prescribed for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Well-known drugs of this type include fluoxetine (Prozac), paroxetine (Paxil) and sertraline (Zoloft).
Non-Response to SSRIs Has Been a Mystery
Many people seem to respond positively to SSRIs (although some studies have found no difference between the effects of SSRIs and placebos for patients with severe depression). However, other people with major depressive disorder are completely non-responsive to SSRIs. Why some people respond to SSRIs and some do not is one of the big unanswered questions surrounding depression and depression treatment.
Stress Hormone Regulation Linked to Fatty Acids
The new research from the Netherlands, which is being presented to the congress of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology, suggests a link between how the body metabolizes fatty acids and how the brain regulates stress hormones. The research team discovered that patients suffering from major depressive disorder were more responsive to SSRIs if they increased their intake of fatty fish, a food high in fatty acids.
The researchers compared the fatty acid and cortisol levels of 70 patients with major depressive disorder to those of 51 healthy controls. They then treated the depressed patients for six weeks with 20 mg of an SSRI antidepressant, gradually increasing the dosage to 50mg for patients who did not respond to the initial dosage.
The researchers continued to measure fatty acid and cortisol levels throughout the six-week period of the study. They discovered that the patients who did not respond to the SSRI treatment had abnormal metabolism of fatty acids compared to the overall group average.
When they looked more closely at the dietary habits of the patients in the study, they found a strong correlation between the frequency of fatty fish consumption and the success of SSRIs at treating depression.
Fatty Fish Eaters More Likely to Respond
The researchers divided the study subjects into four groups depending on the frequency with which they ate fatty fish ("fatty" fish, also referred to as oily fish, are fatty-acid-rich fish such as salmon, tuna, mackerel and trout).
The patients in the group who consumed the most fatty fish on a regular basis were found to have a 75 percent chance of responding to the SSRI treatment. In contrast, the patients who reported that they never ate fatty fish had only a 23 percent chance of responding to the SSRI treatment.
Improving Antidepressant Response
The Dutch researchers believe that this information could have several practical applications for depression treatment. First, fatty acid metabolism could be measured in patients as a way to predict whether they are good candidates for SSRI treatment. Second, fatty fish consumption or other means of increasing fatty acid levels could be used in conjunction with medication in order to increase the odds that SSRI treatment will be successful.

Below are example from our initial brainstorming sessions, organized into two groups: brain dumps and mind maps.
Brain Dumps
Mindmaps are essentially graphical depictions of word and concept associations. They are arrived at by linear progression, moving from one central word or idea (e.g. pizza) to immediatly related words (e.g. cheese or pan) and so on, connecting to more and more words, concepts, or even images. The final outcome is a non-linear web of map of concepts, allowing us the designers to make non-linear connections between the them. Below are some examples we created.
Logo Design Sketches
In addition to brainstorming raw ideas, we also conducted a slightly more focussed brainstorming of logo concepts:

Why Purchase Forklifts and Pallet Jacks Today?
If you currently have a business where you keep on transporting and unloading large products such as boxes, table and other furniture, then it would be best that you start buying quality forklifts and pallet jacks right away. If you want to do some of the transporting activities in your business, then this efficient equipment would process all the weighing and shifting points. One important part of the pallet jack is the weighing scale since this would weigh all the products that are on the jack and then you can easily move it anywhere. One of the things that you usually would keep in mind when you start the company is all the expenses and costs in your business but purchasing forklifts and pallet jacks are worth your money since you will be able to spend less compared to giving salaries to hundreds of employees to load and unload the different products.
It would be a great idea that you start choosing quality and advanced equipment and tools, so that you will be able to do your business activities in the most productive way. As a matter of fact, the latest pallet jacks today has also printing and pc connectivity since nowadays there are many businesses that are already on computers. There would be a lot of accuracy of your costs and transportation expenses if you have pallet jacks. You would be moving pallet jacks from different places but one amazing feature that they have is that you can still calculate the distances as well. Even though your employees and staff are not on the same location with the jack, you can still authorize them about the different calculations and information.
There are a lot of things that are amazing about the pallet jack and one of this is the design that it has since it has a small type but can easily transport large products. When you are planning to buy pallet jacks for your business, be sure that you do more research about the different brands so that you know that you have the best quality ones. This is an amazing business tool that you should definitely have in your company. Although, just be sure that the company can also provide you with a warranty period that is attached to the pallet jack. It would also be a good idea that you examine well the pallet jack before you actually purchase it.
Although, it would be a good idea first that you consider knowing pallet jacks reviews from different customers since this would be very helpful when you are still finding the best pallet jacks and forklifts for you. There would also be many choices you can get from online websites as well. This is surely a great investment.

Tom Lantos Innovation in Community Service Awards 2017 Winners
PHA's history is the story of inspired people with the drive to turn ideas into reality. For the eighth consecutive year, Gilead Sciences is funding the Tom Lantos Innovation in Community Service Awards to keep that spirit thriving. The following projects have been funded in 2017.
Paint and Take Workshop for PH Patients
Mickey Krause, Largo, Florida
This is a workshop given by a professional artist for patients with PH. The artist will supply everything needed for the attendees to have a completed, ready to hang piece of artwork to take home with them. The PH patients will have an opportunity to share their experiences, strength and hope with each other. We can still have our dreams come true even with the limitations of PH. The workshop will be held 4 times.
The Story of Pongo, the Rare Purple Elephant
Ioanna Alissandratou, Attiki, Greece
Previously, a Lantos Award was given to create the story of Pongo. This year, the story of Pongo, the Rare Purple Elephant will be published. The project has been designed to prepare and educate children about PH. The purpose has been to explain PH in simple but meaningful terms to children as well as to adults. By telling Pongo's story, we lay emphasis on the most common symptom of PH: becoming breathless. The story of Pongo has an optimistic message to show children that living with PH is difficult but not impossible.
Placemats for PH Awareness
Bonnie Patricelli, Clementon, New Jersey
Placemats will be created and focus on the early diagnosis campaign to spread awareness of PH. They will include symptoms and graphics, as well as a QR code that can be scanned with cell phones and send people directly to the PHA website. The placemats will be distributed to 153 diners throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware. They can also fold it up or tear the ad out and take it with them.
PH Info Start Packet
Zdenka Bradac, Pisarovina, Croatia
Recognizing the lack of awareness and information about pulmonary hypertension in Croatia, this project will adopt and distribute PHA's Envelope of Hope resource so patients will be able to understand the next steps to take after being diagnosed.
Raising Awareness of PH
Eszter Csabuda, Budapest, Hungary
In small countries like Hungary, it is not easy to connect with patients and learn about PH. This will be an event where patients, caregivers and PH experts can connect in person to learn more about PH and how to live with it long-term. PHA Hungary will use all of its media channels to raise awareness of PH and this event.
PH in PH
Michelle Guerrero, Upper Mount Gravatt, Australia
This project will gather patients and medical professionals to hold a focus group, which will eventually create a survival guide specifically for PH patients in the Philippines. Through a website with enough information, patients will have better knowledge about their disease. This website, following the footsteps of PHA, will also open a space for patients to share their stories. With the website's launch, a short awareness material will also be introduced.
Elaboration of an ACHPA Children's Support Network and a Launch Campaign with Comics
Diana Isabel Lovera, Bogota, Colombia
This project will create the first support group for children with PH and create comics where 3 of the children are the protagonists. Its main purpose will be to change the concept of patient victimization to be a true hero and an example to follow. The support groups will also strengthen the parents and caregivers, and keep them aware of the latest scientific advances and medical treatments for child patients.
Elaboration of Healthy Menus for Patients with Pulmonary Hypertension
Juana Vanessa Rodriguez Lovera, Bogota, Colombia
An important factor for PH patients is their diet and learning to eat PH-friendly foods. A previous Lantos award funded the creation of Healthy Menu Primer, a cook book containing healthy recipes for patients with pulmonary hypertension. This year, the Healthy Menu Primer will be distributed to the PH community in Colombia.
No PH Patient is Left Behind
Paula Menezes, Sao Paulo, Brazil
"No PH Patient is left behind" project will make a traveling team to create and give short presentations supported by health professionals and children and adult oriented games in key places where poverty has a great prevalence of Schistosomiasis in Brazil. Schistosomiasis is the number 1 cause of PAH in Brazil. The team will select the villages affected by this parasite where, due to lack of awareness, people in these areas are often misdiagnosed with this parasitical disease. This project is intended to raise awareness of PH in underprivileged villages in Brazil.
Pulmonary Hypertension Awareness in Nepal Campaign Kick-Off (PHANKO)
Chooda Khanal, Miami, Florida
This project will raise awareness about PH among medical professionals, pediatricians, caregivers and patients with heart/lung conditions in hospital settings. This will include providing education about risk factors associated with PH, explaining the symptoms to watch among patients with congenital heart disease to help in prompt evaluation and response to address suspected PH cases. T-shirts printed in Nepali language with specific information about PH, symptoms of PH and care and support for PH patients will be distributed to each identified patients and their caregivers. This project will raise awareness about PH among a larger population.
Concientizando y Educando sobre PH en Peru
Maritza Rodriquez, Lima, Peru
Promoting PH Awareness and Education in Peru aims to promote awareness and education concerning PH throughout the community. Currently, Peru has minimal awareness and it is often difficult to receive pertinent information/resources as a patient. An objective of this project is to reach patients who may live far from the Capital.
Envelope of Hope – South Africa
Shanna Hiemstra, Bryanston, South Africa
This project will adopt PHA's Envelope of Hope to provide South African PH patients with the knowledge they need to accept that there is a future for them and provide them with next steps. This resource will provide patients with facts and offer guidance for newly diagnosed patients including facts that they need and ways to receive support.
Promoting Patient Education for Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension
Abraham Babu, Karnataka, India
A patient educational manual (Pulmonary Hypertension Manual – PulHMan) funded by the Tom Lantos Awards (2012) has shown to improve awareness (Heart Lung Circ. 2016 Jan;25(1):41-5). However, crucial education material for various types of pulmonary hypertension are lacking. Through this project we hope to be able to design and develop patient education material for patients with pulmonary hypertension from left heart disease.
Care to PH
Sagar Dhoble, Maharashtra, India
There is a need for increased education and awareness among the PH community in India. This project deals primarily with development of a mobile application or a website dedicated to pulmonary hypertension. This website/application will include all information that a person with PH searches for. This project intends to link the patient and caregiver to a PH medical professional and active PH communities.
PH Cook Book
Maricela Arce, Monterrey, Mexico
The PH Cook Book, was designed by nutritionists and Mexican mothers. It includes low sodium and nutritious recipes, and it is designed specifically for pulmonary hypertension patients. The PH Cook Book will be designed, printed and distributed to the Mexican PH community so they can make healthy and delicious food.

A San Diego company has been named as a defendant in a class-action lawsuit that accuses the firm of systematically cheating homeowners trying to make their property more energy efficient.
Renovate America, which is based in Rancho Bernardo, runs a popular program that arranges for homeowners to borrow money to install solar panels, improve doors and windows and make other improvements to reduce their energy use.
Company officials rejected the allegations and said they would defend the suit vigorously.
Under a program it calls the Home Energy Renovation Opportunity, or HERO, Renovate America finances the improvements and arranges for the costs to be added onto property tax rolls. Loans can be financed up to 25 years at up to 15 percent of the property's value.
"Over 50 types of energy-efficient products are eligible for no money down, 100 percent financing," the company states on its website. "More than 50,000 families love coming home to lower utility bills."
According to the Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit, Renovate America "overcharges virtually every cost, fee and amount due from borrowers in the HERO Loan program to maximize its own profits at the expense of HERO loan borrowers."
The 33-page case was filed earlier this month by property owner Michael Richardson, who alleges that the company charges excessive closing costs and other fees. He said he agreed to borrow $43,159 to pay for a new roof, windows and other improvements, but was assessed $48,777.
"Defendants simply inflate the stated amount of each HERO loan by the amount of accrued interest and then re-compute interest on that inflated amount," the complaint states.
Renovate America spokeswoman Ellen Qualls said there is no merit to the legal complaint.
"We take our commitment to compliance with laws, rules and regulations, and to consumer protection, very seriously, and we strive to exceed all applicable requirements and best practices," she said.
The case has yet to be certified as class-action litigation, although Richardson estimated more than 5,000 customers may have been affected.

Defiant Dan Mason is battling a brain tumour that is threatening to claim his sight – but he still has a smile on his face.
Despite spending more than 10 hours in hospital on January 26 – his ninth birthday – the Wearside lad is putting up a brave fight after being told he has cancer.
And now well wishers have raised more than £3,000 to help his family with travel expenses and lost income as they care for their boy.
Dan's mum Nina Jonas, 37, first knew something was wrong when her son told her he was unable to see properly out of one eye.
The youngster, from Usworth, Washington, was referred for tests before being diagnosed with a glioma earlier this month.
The tumour is pressing on his optic nerve, which is what has caused his distorted vision.
The whole football team have been amazing. It's overwhelming the amount of support we've had, it's hard to take it all inNina Jonas, Dan's mother
Dan, a talented footballer, who plays for Washington Juniors Oranges under-nines, had his first chemotherapy session at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle last week.
Support worker Nina said: "He looked like he'd had a knock to his eye, so I asked him about it. He said 'what, the one I can't see out of properly?' He just thought it was normal.
"I took him to the optician and he couldn't see bold, black letters. I knew something wasn't right, call it mother's instinct."
Dan, who also lives with dad Steve Mason, 39, a warehouse operative, and big sister Anna, 14, now faces between 12 and 18 months of chemotherapy, in the hope that his eye can be saved.
"He's doing really, really good in himself," Nina said. "We've told him everything, so he is fully aware of what is going on. He knows he's poorly and has to be careful.
"He is really taking everything in his stride, he wants to get better and go back to playing football."
And the George Washington Primary School pupil has his beloved football team behind him.
Paul Davison, whose son Ellis plays with Dan, has set up a fundraising page to help the family through the financial strain of endless hospital visits.
Paul, 41, said: "My son plays in the under-nines team with Dan, he's a lovely lad and a key member of the team.
"We were at training on Tuesday night discussing what we could do to help the family and someone mentioned the costs of visiting hospital and staying there all day were really high.
"I suggested that we could set up a page for donations and asked Kevin the coach to confirm Dan's family were OK with us doing it.
"I created the page on Wednesday teatime and by the evening I was getting phone calls asking if I'd seen some of the huge donations.
"I set the original target at £500 and it raised over £3000 in 48 hours, including £1,500 from West Bromwich United and £500 from Washington Juniors. The reaction has been absolutely unbelievable."
Nina said: "The whole football team have been amazing. It's overwhelming the amount of support we've had, it's hard to take it all in."
