Improving lives
Our charity strives to improve the lives of local children less fortunate than ourselves. We provide funding for such things as learning aids, respite care or even simple basic necessities for their homes.
Funding Freedom
There are a multitude of ways that we can help a child in need, and all requests for funding are given the full consideration of our Appeals Committee.
Requests for funding must be for a child or children under 16 years of age, and residing within the BS postcoded areas. Applications by a parent or guardian must be accompanied by a letter from a doctor or social worker, medical practitioner or other professional or be accompanied by a supporting letter from them.
All you need to do is follow this link and fill in the online form. The form then goes directly to our Appeals team, where your case will be given a unique identification number. All applications are then considered by our Appeals Committee, or by our General Committee for appeals over £1,000. All successful appeals must be utilised within 6 months of being granted, otherwise they will be considered lapsed and and the funding will be withdrawn..
The whole process from submitting the application to receiving funding should take no more than one month. This is very dependant on what has been applied for, so please be patient. If you have any queries or would like to see how your appeal is progressing please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com

My wife has slept with every man on the planet; she's a slut.
The only way to stop her is to sew her vagina shut.
She says that she wants me to be able to forgive her.
But that's hard when there's a line of men waiting outside to sleep with her.
Last week I caught her and my ex best friend in bed.
I hit him with a sledgehammer and put a dent in his head.
Yesterday Bill Clinton got her in the sack.
I cut off his wiener, he won't come back.
If you're a man, I have some advice that can save your life.
If you want to stay healthy, don't sleep with my wife.

Global Information Technology Spending in Railways Market 2016-2020
Outlook of the global information technology (IT) spending in railways market
Technavio's market research analyst has estimated the global information technology (IT) spending in railways market to grow at a CAGR of almost 16% over the forecast period. Recently, it has been observed that many countries from across the globe have increased their IT spending in railways to modernize the existing rail infrastructure as it lacked operational efficiency and had serious security issues.

Geraint Jones dragged Kent out of a hole yesterday against fourth-placed Lancashire as he made his highest score in the Championship since July last year.
The former England wicketkeeper arrived at the crease with his county in dire straits, the cream of the batting back in the changing room and the Lancashire pack of bowlers, scenting blood, in full cry.
Jones passed fifty for only the second time this season, a patient effort, and one which earned Kent their first batting bonus point, something they had looked unlikely to get earlier in the day. During his three-hour-plus stint at the crease he shared in a 52-run sixth-wicket stand with Ryan McLaren and one of 45 with James Tredwell for the seventh. He finished on 80 not out.
It has been an uneasy month for Kent and their captain, Robert Key. At the start of it they were sitting in third position in the County Championship, were contemplating two finals – the Twenty20 Cup and the Friends Provident Trophy – and all seemed right with the world.
They entered this match as the beaten finalists in the two knock-out competitions and as the seventh-placed team in the First Division, coming in to it on the back of two defeats and a draw.
Unsurprisingly, given that poor run, they began haltingly after winning the toss against Lancashire. They had lost three crucial wickets with just a half-century on the board, and one of those was that of Key, whose run of luck – most of it bad – for the last four weeks seemed to have set him up for yesterday's dismissal.
Having been touted as a possible replacement for the England captain, Michael Vaughan, he found himself overlooked in favour of Kevin Pietersen. He then captained England Lions to defeat against the South Africans last week and was given out caught behind in the FP Trophy final at Lord's when he did not get a touch.
Yesterday Joe Denly's return drive to Sajid Mahmood was deflected on to the stumps by the bowler's hand with Key having backed up, stranded out of his ground.
Kent wobbled for a while after that with Denly cutting Dominic Cork straight to gully to give Mal Loye – back after a six-week absence – the first of three catches during the day.
Martin van Jaarsveld soon followed, another Cork victim, and just when Darren Stevens and Neil Dexter looked to have turned things around, taking Kent into three figures, the latter gave Loye his second catch. Stevens departed four overs later, which left Jones to salvage what he could.

By Bill Keveney, USA TODAY
Even evil Visitors deserve a makeover.
The green wasp-waisted creature, pictured here in a rendering by the production design team, is a Visitor in ABC's alien-invasion series V underneath its human-looking skin. It's a far cry from what the extraterrestrials looked like in the '80s cult classic.
The depiction, seen exclusively in USA TODAY, "is really cool," says Morena Baccarin, who plays Anna, the queen of the visually deceptive Visitors. "What I like about it is it doesn't look like any particularly recognizable species. It's like a conglomeration of all these different lizard types. It even looks prehistoric. There's something like a T. rex about it, with a lizard mixed with a Komodo dragon."
MORE ON SEASON 2: 'V' cuts to the chase at lightning pace
Bits of the Visitors' physical appearance will be revealed over the 10-episode second season, which begins tonight (9 ET/PT), with the full creature appearing in the season finale. Executive producer Scott Rosenbaum first needed to develop the back story of the Visitors before coming up with a visual look. One helps explain the other.
"There is a reason the creature I ended up wanting to design looks familiar in many ways and unfamiliar in many ways," Rosenbaum says. "Throughout the season, you'll be seeing exactly what the Visitors look like underneath, and while some of it will be explained as to why they look the way they do ... if you look close enough and study it, you can sort of figure out what the Visitors have been doing throughout the course of history in the universe. Answers to that are revealed literally in (their) physical nature."
The earlier series' look, including the lizardlike alien also pictured here, may seem dated, but it was "revolutionary" for its time, says Jane Badler, a popular star of the '80s version who joins the current series tonight.
"In its time, it was great," she says of an era when shows depended more on prosthetics and makeup than computer-generated effects. "But looking at it now, there's no comparison in techniques, in digital special effects. It's incredible what they do now."

Dickens and the Politics of the Family by Professor Catherine Waters
Book DescriptionThe fictional representation of the family has long been regarded as a Dickensian speciality. But while nineteenth-century reviewers praised Dickens as the pre-eminent novelist of the family, any close examination of his novels reveals a remarkable disjunction between his image as the quintessential celebrant of the hearth, and his interest in fractured families. Catherine Waters offers an explanation of this discrepancy through an examination of Dickens's representation of the family in relation to nineteenth-century constructions of class and gender. Drawing upon feminist and new historicist methodologies, and focusing upon the normalising function of middle-class domestic ideology, Waters concludes that Dickens's novels record a shift in notions of the family away from an earlier stress upon the importance of lineage and blood towards a new ideal of domesticity assumed to be the natural form of the family.

The Catholic University of America
Sanford Berman (born October 6, 1933) is a radical librarian (cataloger) known for promoting alternative viewpoints in librarianship and acting as a pro-active information conduit to other librarians around the world, mostly via public speaking, voluminous correspondence, and unsolicited "care packages" delivered via the US Postal Service. Will Manley, columnist for the American Library Association (ALA) publication, American Libraries referred to Berman as a "bibliographic warrior".
Berman was born in Chicago, Illinois. He attended University of California at Los Angeles, where he earned a BA in Political Science with minors in Sociology, Anthropology and English, and was elected a member of Phi Beta Kappa. After acquiring an MS in Library Science from The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., Berman began work as a librarian. He worked for the US Army Special Services Libraries, West Germany (1962–1966) where he helped edit an underground press GI magazine titled 'Yin/Yang'; Schiller College, Kleiningersheim, West Germany (1966–1967) ; University of California at Los Angeles Research Library (1967–1968), where he rescued back runs of I. F. Stone's Weekly from the garbage ; University of Zambia Library, Lusaka, Zambia (1968–1970) ; Makerere Institute of Social Research, Makerere University Library, Kampala, Uganda (1971–1972) ; and Hennepin County Library, Minnesota (1973–1999).[1][2][3]
Alternative subject headings[edit]
Berman has been a leading critic of biased headings in the Library of Congress Subject Headings. His 1971 publication Prejudices and Antipathies: A Tract on the LC Subject Heads Concerning People[4] sparked a movement to correct biased subject headings. Berman listed 225 headings with proposed alterations, additions, or deletions and cross-references to "more accurately reflect the language used in addressing these topics, to rectify errors of bias, and to better guide librarians and readers to material of interest".[5] Berman stated, "The fact that a number of meanings may be assigned to a given word explains why messages are subject to misinterpretation and why our communication is open to misunderstandings."[citation needed] Messages and therefore subject headings must convey an idea in a fashion free from prejudice. Berman realized the continued use of biased subject headings would significantly limit the ability of a patron to access materials in the collection. Berman also thought the use of language in headings should be clear, concise, and reflect the current usage of everyday people rather than only scientific or technical terms. Overall, the use of common language in subject headings would enable prompt retrieval of materials by the end user.[citation needed]
Berman also openly criticized centrally performed cataloging and standard cataloging tools that supported bias in subject headings. He stated, "[O]ur national cataloging products and services can't be completely trusted and should not be accepted automatically nor uncritically by anyone who genuinely believes that cataloging should make material more rather than less accessible and retrievable."[citation needed] Cataloging that was outright erroneous or inadequate rendered material inaccessible even though it was in the collection. Berman thought poor cataloging was a serious form of censorship. Libraries were supposed to oppose censorship and provide the widest possible spectrum of cultural, social, economic, political, religious, and sexual information. With this is mind, Berman indicated local libraries should make a conscious effort to describe accurately all materials in the catalog for a patron. A considerable amount of conscious effort meant including "public notes" to clarify unfamiliar concepts for patrons. The public notes would let a patron know whether or not an item would suit his or her information needs. Furthermore, Berman opposed the practice of not cataloging all important aspects of works. Patrons cannot access materials when they have not been fully catalogued.
The spark of Berman's cataloging revolution was the inclusion in Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) of the term kaffir, which he came across while working in Zambia: "Berman was told by offended black fellow-workers that calling someone a kafir was similar to being called a nigger in America" (Pendergrast[clarification needed]).[1] This motivated him to systematically address subject heading bias in his work at Hennepin County Library and in writing Prejudices and Antipathies: a Tract on the LC Subject Heads Concerning People.[1] The work, published in two editions, examines racism, sexism, Christocentrism, and other biases inherent in the LCSH. Berman is also known for his role in encouraging the Library of Congress to drop such archaic headings as "Water Closet" in favor of contemporary terminology.[citation needed]
With other Minnesota librarians, as well as nationally and internationally, Berman is known for promoting activist librarianship in which personal ideals entailing social justice are part and parcel of professional work. Thanks to this advocacy the American Library Association's official policy recognizes librarians' key role in addressing social ills.
With librarian James P. Danky, Berman has been the editor of Alternative Library Literature, (1982–2001) a biennial compilation of alternative essays on librarianship from a wide variety of other sources. Berman's other titles include The Joy of Cataloging and Worth Noting. He is the original radical librarian; his followers refer to themselves as "Sandynistas" or guerrilla cataloguers. He was a founding member of a group known as the "Revolting Librarians" who published a manifesto about library-related issues.[6]
He is the founder of the American Library Association's Hunger, Homelessness and Poverty Task Force, a division of The Social Responsibilities Round Table which he also co-founded. During recent years he has written and lectured on the failure of ALA and American libraries to help the poor and homeless. In June 2005 he gave the Jean E. Coleman Library Outreach Lecture at the annual ALA conference, dedicated to the founder of OLOS.[citation needed]
During the last six months of 2005, working with the assistance of Steve Fesenmaier, Berman convinced the Library of Congress to create many new subject headings, including: "American Dream," "Plutocracy," "West Virginia Mine Wars, 1897-1921" "The Battle of Blair Mountain, 1921," and several others.[citation needed]
The Sanford Berman papers[7] are part of the American Library Association (ALA) Archives held by the University of Illinois Library. [8]
Later work[edit]
Having retired in 1999,[9] Berman continues to solicit the Library of Congress for additions and modifications to the LCSH system. Since 2005, he has led an effort to honor American labor leaders Mary Harris "Mother" Jones and Eugene Debs with commemorative postage stamps.[9]In 2013 McFarland published a collection of his "Unabashed Librarian" columns as a book called Not in My Library.

Although Sonny Bono became a well-known Republican politician in the 1980s, he is best remembered as part of the hippie duo that he formed with his wife Cher and for their transatlantic 1965 chart-topper "I Got You Babe".
Sonny Bono's story is typical of the American dream - he was born Salvatore Bono in 1935 into a poor family of Sicilian immigrants in Detroit. The family moved to Inglewood, California, when he was seven and from an early age he set his sights on the film and music industry in Hollywood. He wrote his first song, "Ko Ko Jo", while working at a grocery store: its title came from a brand of cookies and it was subsequently recorded by the Righteous Brothers.
In 1957 he began working for the independent record label Speciality, where part of his job was as chauffeur to Little Richard. Bono wrote two frenzied rock 'n' roll songs, "She Said Yeah", which was later recorded by the Rolling Stones, and "You Bug Me Baby", which was the B-side of Larry Wiliams's rock 'n' roll classic "Bony Moronie".
By the early Sixties, Bono was hiring musicians and promoting records for the legendary producer Phil Spector. Bono brought his girlfriend, Cherilyn Sarkisian LaPierre, known as Cher, to the sessions and they sang backing vocals on "Da Doo Ron Ron", "Be My Baby" and Spector's famed album A Christmas Gift to You (1963). Cher said of Sonny, "He was kinda ugly and short and strange-looking, but there was something about him."
Sonny and Cher were married in 1963 - it was his second marriage - and, using their own money, released "Baby Don't Go", as Caesar and Cleo. It later became a Top Ten record in the wake of "I Got You Babe". Sonny's best song, "Needles and Pins", written with Spector's arranger, Jack Nitzshe, became a No 1 for the the Searchers in 1964.
Sonny and Cher's manager hired out props for Hollywood productions, which prompted them to experiment with their own clothing. Spurred by the folk- rock boom, Sonny wrote "I Got You Babe", which became a hit in 1965, and they played the part of loving, rebellious, teenage hippies. Sonny's first marriage and true age of 30 were never mentioned.
The tall Cher and short Sonny stole the headlines wherever they went. When they came to the UK later that year, Sonny wore a fur jerkin, an oversized shirt, and striped pants with Eskimo boots; at the time, the Beatles were still wearing suits. Sonny and Cher's UK publicist, Larry Page, recalls, "I arranged for them to be thrown out of the Dorchester Hotel and they then pitched a wigwam on Hyde Park. It was excellent publicity."
Their follow-up, "But You're Mine", also made the Top Twenty and has arguably the worst B-side of all time, "Hello", in which Sonny and Cher do nothing but say hello to their fans. They had another Top Twenty hit with Gilbert Becaud's "Et Maintenant", now called "What Now My Love", but the song's nuances were beyond Sonny's vocal ability. They recorded a best-selling album, Look At Us (1965) and made a film, Good Times (1966).
Sonny and Cher also had solo hits. Sonny produced Cher's hit records "All I Really Want To Do" and "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)", the latter, written by Sonny, was also recorded by Frank Sinatra. On his own, Sonny recorded the risible though successful "Laugh at Me", while the resulting album, Inner Voices, was rejected by even their staunchest fans.
In 1966 Sonny and Cher returned to the Top Ten with "Little Man" but "The Beat Goes On", which is now regarded as a classic Sixties single, only made No 29 in the UK. In 1968 Sonny invested their money into an unwatchable film, Chastity, also the name of their daughter. They lost the money, but Sonny tried to shield Cher from the disaster by buying her expensive presents with loans. By the time she finally discovered what was happening, their financial position was even more precarious.
The couple reinvented themselves to suit the Las Vegas showrooms. Instead of loving sweet talk, they had argumentative banter between songs, and the audiences loved it. CBS television gave them a primetime slot for The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour (1971-74) and they returned to the charts - Cher with "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves" and Sonny and Cher with "All I Ever Need is You" and "A Cowboy's Work is Never Done". Once again, they blew it by releasing dross, this time the two-part single, "Mama Was a Rock and Roll Singer - Papa Used to Write All her Songs".
Sonny and Cher's marriage split up in 1974 (Cher later had a much-publicised nine-day marriage with Gregg Allman), but they continued to work together until 1977, the year that Smokie took "Needles and Pins" back into the Top Ten.
Sonny Bono took occasional acting roles, appearing in episodes of the television series Fantasy Island and The Love Boat, as well as the 1988 film Hairspray. He opened an Italian restaurant in 1982 and, when his expansion plans were nixed, moved into politics. He was the mayor of Palm Springs from 1988 to 1992 and was elected to Congress in 1994.
In 1985 "I Got You Babe" was a No 1 for Chrissie Hynde with UB40. In 1994, Cher, by then an Oscar-winning film star, made the charts via a new version with the cartoon characters Beavis and Butt-Head. The original Sixties version was a key song in the 1993 film Groundhog Day.
Bono was a popular politician - Newt Gingrich asked him to sing "I Got You Babe" in the Senate - and was planning to fight for re-election.

In the Shadow of the Dinosaurs by Nicholas C. Fraser
Book DescriptionThe early Mesozoic period was a critical period in the evolution of life on land when most of today's major groups of terrestrial vertebrates arose and dinosaurs and pterosaurs rose to prominence. In recent years this period has received a great deal of attention from palaeontologists, and it is now felt that the small vertebrates which lived in the shadows of the first dinosaurs tell us a great deal about the evolution of modern terrestrial ecosystems. This book attempts to collate all the information on the small vertebrates and features contributions by experts with international reputations in their fields. There are chapters on the taxonomy and phylogeny of the key vertebrate groups, followed by a section dealing with the most significant fossiliferous assemblages worldwide. The final section looks at how faunal turnover at this time is measured and examines the possibility of mass extinctions.

Baseball notebook: Joyce turns down day off
Jim Joyce could have had the day off.
Major League Baseball was prepared to send in another umpire for the Indians-Detroit Tigers game Thursday at Comerica Park, but Joyce told them he would prefer to go to work, as usual.
"No, not in my lowest moment," Joyce said, when asked if he considered not showing up. "If I had done that, I couldn't have faced myself."
"I've always respected Jim," Indians catcher Mike Redmond said. "He goes to another level. It doesn't surprise me (that he didn't take the day off). He wants to go out there and do the best job he can do."
Joyce turned a perfect game into a one-hitter for Tigers starter Armando Galarraga on Wednesday, when he mistakenly called Jason Donald safe at first after he hit an infield grounder to the right side with two out in the ninth inning.
A's back at Coliseum
The Oakland Athletics are staying put at the Coliseum.
The A's have exercised their option to play the 2011 season in the venue, which commissioner Bud Selig has regularly said isn't a viable long-term option for the small-market club to stay competitive or afloat financially.
Strasburg looks ready
By working himself out of a jam, Stephen Strasburg looks ready to make his major league debut with the Washington Nationals next week.
In his final minor league start, the Nationals' top pitching prospect allowed no runs, three hits and one walk through five innings for the Triple-A Syracuse Chiefs.
The first pick in last year's draft will join the Nationals on Tuesday.

Peace Talks To Remain Constrained By Political Realities
BMI View: Momentum towards a resumption of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks has accelerated in recent days, yet cracks in the facade have quickly emerged. We retain our view that despite ongoing efforts by US Secretary of State John Kerry , the current political configuration in Israel, combined with the increasing fragmentation of the Palestinian Authority, will hind er any progress in negotiations.
Momentum towards a resumption of Israeli-Palestinian peace talks has accelerated in recent days, fuelled by the shuttle diplomacy of U S Secretary of State John Kerry, who has visited the region six times since February. On July 19, Kerry announced that Israeli and Palestinian representatives would meet in Washington 'within the next week or so' for preliminary talks towards resuming full negotiations. The following day, Israel announced it would free an unspecified number of long-serving Palestinian prisoners (a key Palestinian demand), while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called a resumption of talks 'a vital and strategic interest for Israel' . The 22-member Arab League , a key political backer of the Palestinian Authority (PA) ruling the West Bank, has also endorsed a return to direct negotiations.
However, cracks in the facade have quickly emerged. Israeli officials cautioned on July 21 that no date had been set for sending negotiators to Washington, and that Netanyahu would seek cabinet authorisation before proceeding further - a procedure that is likely to shine additional light on the internal divisions of the Israeli government. Netanyahu's ruling coalition is comprised of parties with mutually incompatible views rega rding the Palestinian question, with Jewish Home (a pro-settler, nationalist party) and large elements of Netanyahu's own Likud party broadly opposed to any deal that would grant statehood to Palestinians. Ha'tnua is the only party in the government to openly favour peace talks, but holds a mere six seats in the 120-seats parliament .

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Governor of the Bank of England and the chief executive of the Fin-ancial Services Authority faced a barrage of hostile questioning from MPs yesterday.
Alistair Darling, Mervyn King and Adair Turner were forced to answer criticism of their performance sent to the House of Commons Treasury Select Committee by members of the public, some 5,000 in all.
As the Government announced a new vehicle to manage its stakes in some of Britain's leading banks, UK Financial Investments Limited or UKFI, Mr Darling was pressed on executive bonuses and said: "We don't actually expect many bonuses to be paid at all in the banking sector next year".
Mr Darling and Mr King rebutted allegations that the taxpayer had been taken for a "mug" or a "monkey" over the £500bn in various forms of state support for the banks. Mr King said that he expected the Government to receive "money down the road which will more than justify the initial sums put up." However, he warned the banks again that they "will need to regenerate new sources of funding. The level of savings will be there. Indeed, one would expect that, in the next year or two, the domestic economy will be saving more as a fraction of GDP than it has in recent years. So I've no doubt that the savings pool is there."
Mr Darling told MPs that the UKFI would be required to ensure that "these companies are managed in a commercial way and at arms length from the Government". Its overarching objective will be to "protect and create value" for the taxpayer. A senior Treasury official, John Kingman, will be chief executive, while Sir Philip Hampton, the chairman of J Sainsbury and a former finance director of Lloyds TSB, will chair the UKFI. Sir Philip's appointment will end speculation that he is set to become chairman of Royal Bank of Scotland. The UKFI will oversee the state's interests in Royal Bank of Scotland, HBOS Lloyds TSB, Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley.
Responding to a large volume of queries about the fate of savers with Icelandic bank accounts held on the Isle of Man, Mr Darling said that he would have to "think long and hard" before offering them compensation, and that it was "something that we would not do lightly". He said he would look again at the tax-free and regulatory status of the Isle of Man, given the evident confusion about whether it is covered by the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
Lord Turner also promised to examine the apparent leaks of information to the BBC's Business Editor, Robert Peston, during the credit crisis. Some MPs raised the way that Mr Peston was ahead of the official release of news with "inside information from the top". Lord Turner said "we are concerned" but that there was no sign of market abuse, though there had been an "imperfect broadcast" of information.
He said the leaks were "very serious", but that no leaks were being investigated by the FSA, given that there was no offence against law or regulation. However, he promised one MP that he was "troubled" by Mr Peston's status, though it was not an offence, and that he would "take what you've said and look at it further, but I think we have to stick to what is an offence under market rules – we are not a policeperson of leaks in general".
MPs' worries over the way the crisis has been handled were echoed in the House of Lords, where the Treasury minister Lord Myners agreed that there was a need for a public inquiry into the behaviour of banks.
The shadow Chancellor, George Osborne, said: "As Alistair Darling has been forced to admit, ministers must bear responsibility for the failures in the system of banking regulation. We need a public inquiry that covers the behaviour of everyone responsible: the bankers, the regulators and, of course, the ministers, past and present.
"Because so much public money has been spent rescuing the banks, any inquiry must interview witnesses in public and one of the central witnesses must be the man who was Chancellor of the Exchequer for 10 years and presided over the age of irresponsibility: Gordon Brown."
John Kingman Head of UKFI
Described as affable and highly intelligent, John Kingman was promoted to be the number two civil servant at the Treasury last October, at the age of 38. A rapid rise to theposition of Second Permanent Secretary and Managing Director, Public Services & Growth, HM Treasury, sounds impressive enough.
More importantly, he obviously has the confidence of the Prime Minister, earned during exposure to Mr Brown during the latter's decade as Chancellor and Mr Kingman's stint as his press officer, among other postings. Mr Kingman was placed in charge of the Treasury team dealing with Northern Rock, and was involved in the recent negotiations with the banks now being part-nationalised, so his new job is a natural, if giddying, progression.
He has had a little exposure to the fringes of the "real world", having been a journalist with the 'Financial Times' and worked in the chief executive's office at BP, but has never been involved in banking or fund management. Able as he is, though, the obvious query is how a figure who has enjoyed such closeness to ministers can fulfil the requirement that the Government's relationship with UKFI be truly "arm's length".

everyone wrote:Nothing dangerous for sure
Thanks for the encouraging words, I am not really updated on this whole aftermath. And yes, surely the myth of radiation and nuclear forces in general is a powerful one - I guess the outcome of the cold war was as much ideational as technological. And it's understandable, really. If the idea of breaking apart the elementary stuff of the universe and thereby releasing invisible rays evoking unknown but definitely horrible effects in everything they reach should not scare people, then what should? It seems like an archetypical hybris/nemesis scenario, and I guess people are just waiting to express their bad (un)conscience.

Their history begins in Belgium in the 1940's. Jack Barouh took the lesson that his father taught him to heart: watch-making is, at its heart, about patience and dedication to quality. This philosophy has informed the creation of Michele timepieces for three generations, and will continue to mark the brand's legacy for years to come. The CSX Diamond, the very first Michele watch, has become an industry icon, and remains a high water mark of style, grace and sophistication.

What People Are Saying About Palm Desert
great ride, great info from the guide, safe and fun!
our guide was very knowledgeable and we could stop for photos when we wanted. We like to ride, so did not stop a lot. After the ride, we went to the date garden for our reward from the guide. Fun time and since it was summer, it was only the four of us in our family, but not too hot. one of the highlights of our trip to the desert.
Once in the park the experience is very good.
Ron, our guide was very knowledgeable and fun, but our time in the park was only about 2 hours because of the time to pick up other guests and the drive time.
Wonderful experience with a great guide.
Our guide was very knowledgeable, considerate, and entertaining. Learned a lot about the area, the plants, and the customs of the native Indians. The canyons were amazing and the geography intriguing.
great trip thru the back road and see beautiful scenery but bumpy ride
Enjoyed the trip and Mr. Bill informaion on what we were seeing. The Back Road entrence was a very bumpy be we survived. Desert scenery for us easterners is tough to comprehend. But the stark beauty and the thought that things do survive and flurish in this enviroment is assume to learn about. Good tour. Don

Why Choose Our Services?
As soon as you start to notice problems with the floors in your home or business (spots and stains, dull stone floors, scratched stone floors) it is unlikely that you will be able to correct the problem without professional stone floor cleaning services.
Yet, you may try to do the stone floor restoration yourself. Or you may ignore the problem, in the hope that your family, guests and visitors will not see it. However, it is unlikely that you will have any lasting success.
This is because when a stone floor problem becomes visible, it is often way past a do it yourself solution. This is because we look at our floors when we are standing. So when a floor looks dirty it is absolutely packed with dirt, because the dirt has become ingrained in the surface. When a stone floor starts to look dull it will be full of scratches and soils that mopping will not solve.

You also get the added benefit that by investing in your floors, you will save money by not having to replace them prematurely.
You can delay calling in the professionals by having a daily maintenance programme best suited to your floor.
Do you dry sweep your stone floors before you mop them? Do you know if your stone floor cleaner is damaging your floor?
Most floor problems start with the wrong kind of maintenance. If you would like to know how to clean a stone floor, get some helpful stone floor cleaning training and advice on cleaning stone floors, then we will be happy to recommend the best cleaning method.
Setting The Diamond Standard For Stone Floor Restoration
BEWARE companies who don't have the equipment and experience to use specialised diamond grinding and polishing equipment.
They use cheap diamond dust impregnated pads with commercial grade floor cleaning equipment and attempt to pass this equipment off as specialist equipment.
Abbey Floor Care uses specialist metal and resin diamond cutting segments to re-surface the floor, completely removing scratches and blemishes, giving you a long-lasting deep polish.
Do not accept contractors that just use pads, they will just polish over scratches and give a low standard finish.

Main series:
- The pictured example. It has Ruby's first death on the team in the form of a poisoned Beautifly. What hurts more is that he was just a few moments away from the Pokemon Center.
- The finale of Season 1. Steven is down to his last Pokemon, Metagross. Ruby commands Absol to use Perish Song, as he knows that none of his remaining Pokemon can take Metagross one on one. On that same turn Absol is KO'd by a Meteor Mash, 3 Perish Song counters remaining. Ruby follows with Katie, and she is easily disposed by an Earthquake from Metagross, 2 Perish Song counters remaining. Now Ruby is down to his last Pokemon, Sceptile, and as a Hope Spot arrives he is reminded of all the Pokemon he lost to get there, and that everything was for a reason; he just had to survive until the end of the turn for the Perish Song to take effect.
- Then Metagross used Hyper Beam. And everything faded to white.
- Gulliver's Heroic Sacrifice.
- Pony's death definitely qualifies.
- Episode 29. Buddy, Doakes, Blamo. You shall be missed.
- Buddy's line: "Right... just one turn." as he grins is particularly heart-wrenching.
- Season 2, Episode 19 is probably the most heartbreaking non-death strip in the whole series. It details the end of Charmander and Squirtle's friendship, caused by Ruby's challenge.
- "You have to remind it what's important."
- The What is the Nuzlocke Challenge? page.
- And then during the showdown with Mewtwo, Sawyer is killed and Bruce is separated from Ruby, leaving him with no Pokemon left.
- Blastoise returning to Pallet to visit Bulbasaur, and both of them sitting under the stars in memory of Bruce.
- Ruby gets his first casualty in White: Hard Mode with Hank dying to N's Pidove. What makes it worse is that it was displayed in the form of a Gory Discretion Shot.
- After finally beating an opponent, and avenging Hank, Senor Fluf is the next to go down. His last words to Ruby ask if he saw him beat N's Pidove, proud of his accomplishment, right before he closes his eyes for good.
- Those same tears become bitter when N walks up and hits Ruby with a simple truth, that in turn potentially reopens every single tearjerker death in the past. "Yes, it is sad... But remember... They wouldn't have died... if you hadn't caught them."
- The reveal of Isis' identity. Even Katelyn is disturbed by what she sees...
Katelyn: "...holy fu--"
Emerald Comic - A Shoeless Adventure:
- Chapters 10 and 11. Each Pokémon gets a well-developed character, and when they die, it hits hard.
Freddy's Nuzlocke Adventures:
- Towards the end of his first run comes this. The music does not help.
Landwalker's Nuzlocke:
- Rikishi's Heroic Sacrifice during the Champion battle. Complete with a flashback.
- In Landwalker's Yellow run, the death of Blue's Raticate, trampled by evacuees when the SS Anne burns/sinks. Complete with shots of Blue desperately screaming and searching for it.
- Also, Lun the Diglett's death.
- Amy's death to a self-destructing Koffing. Red's reaction after all of it concludes does not help.
A Petty Nuzlocke Challenge:
- Lavender Tower◊.
- Part 25◊ cements Gary as a Jerkass Woobie with extra emphasis on the Jerkass. More painfully-well applied music follows.
- The battle against Lorelei has a wham moment that hits hard. A mere one episode after joining, Vinny the Magneton- already shaping up to be a fan favorite- is killed by Lapras' critical Surf. Good night, sweet prince.
- Petty's formspring makes an earlier event much harsher. Remember when James tossed Gary out of the S.S.Anne? His Raticate died saving him
- The final battle with Gary◊. Nadine going down after a stray Future Sight gave Gary's Charizard enough of an edge to finish her off. Made worse in the comments for the page, where Petty describes how she simply didn't have any choice but to let Nadine die due to Charizard's speed outclassing anything else on her team.
- On top of this, immediately following the battle, Oak arrives and coldly shuts down Gary's protests, driving home the very same favoritism towards Locke that messed up Gary so badly in the first place.
Gary: But Gramps! I WON! I was Champion! I was actually SOMETHING until she—Oak: GARY. Go home. (He then proudly embraces Locke, ignoring and turning his back on his grandson) Come with me, Locke. We'll enter you into the Hall of Champions.
- On top of this, immediately following the battle, Oak arrives and coldly shuts down Gary's protests, driving home the very same favoritism towards Locke that messed up Gary so badly in the first place.
- A rare tearjerker induced by a happy scene. Spuds and Barb adopt an egg.
- The grand finale.
NyaChan's Nuzlocke:
- In Pearl, she loses her starter, who's been through everything with her to Fissure, of all things, during the Elite Four.
- The end of the Pearl run. Downer Ending doesn't even begin to cover it...
Kynim's Diamond Nuzlocke:
- Page 21 and 22. Josie the geodude dies from poison The "no heal items" rule bites back.
- Fantina Gym Battle with sad death video Apparently ghost Pokemon can die
- Flint Battle with another sad death video.
Kynim's White Nuzlocke:
- We Hardly Knew Ye: Kiki the Patrat was caught in one route and almost immediately killed by a Youngster's Lillipup.
- Walter's backstory He stayed with his former owner, who had dementia, until he passed away.
- Made all the worse when he performs a Heroic Sacrifice along with Freddie and a newly-caught Pidove in Pinwheel Forest.
- Mimi is nearly crushed by rocks and is saved at the last second by Jordan, at the expense of his life.
- And the next chapter focuses solely on the aftermath to show how major it was. Zach and Jojo's evolutions, even though it is their final forms, do not change the tone slightly.
- Jordan even got "Saddest Death" for the 2013 Nuzlocke Awards on the Nuzlocke forums. That is how much of a Tear Jerker it was.
- And another heart-wrenching death has been tallied up: Mimi's. At the hands of Marshal's Throh. Now she's Together in Death with Jordan...
- Imagine how poor Andy will react once it's found out...
- It gets worse when you realize that Zach is now the only original team member left from before the Pinwheel Forest massacre.
- And now Mimi won "saddest death" for 2016.
wizard898's Moemon: Hard Mode:
- A heartwarming picnic takes on a bittersweet air when Saya goes to help clean off her master's mouth and he rebuffs her.
- Ruru's Heroic Sacrifice, especially as her Static kicking in proves key to their victory. The expression poor Chu makes as it sinks in just makes it worse.
- Chapter 21: Volt's death. Just to see a poor sweet little girl implied to be beaten to death...that just sucks. Doubles as a You Bastard moment for Team Aqua.
- 22 rubs salt in the wound, as Tooh blames their trainer for what happened, calling him weak and refusing to follow him any longer. Umpa joins her.
Nonparael's Nuzlocke Runs:
- The three-part Episode 10 of the Moemon LG run, combines this with Wham Episode: first, Gale Oak reveals he knows what the heroine is trying to accomplish, calling her cause 'crazy'. Then he forces Sienna's charmander friend Allie to kill Sienna, followed up by Tia's death. The heroine reveals herself as a moemon Weepingbell, but Gale has her pokeball, and Nail performs a Heroic Sacrifice. To rub it all in, Gale mocks her afterwards.
- In the Black run, Nineveh's death from Part 43.◊
Bruce Wayne's Platinum Nuzlocke:
- The death of Barbara against Jupiter's Skuntank. The reactions from the rest of the team only serve to make it all the more tragic and heartrending.
Mike's Crystal Nuzlocke:
- Shuckie's death is quite saddening. It's amazing to see the death of a Shuckle being so sad.
Lenni's White Run:
- It's like watching your dog die. No, literally. To make matters worse his body shows up in later pages during the rest of the battle.
Aouli's "The Meek" LG:
- The death of Kat the Raticate in Rock Tunnel. The author's description of her own reaction as it happened qualifies too.
Robin's Emerald Nuzlocke:
- After spending about four pages rounding out Lassie's character he's killed by a random kid's Nincada.
"It's a Hard Life" Leaf Green Nuzlocke:
- When half the cops in Kanto are after Robin and trainers keep trying to kill her for the reward, Lt. Surge is the first person who actually tries to help, treating her as a child instead of a criminal. But the combination of bad luck, miscommunication, and a terrified, homeless and armed 10-year-old means Elektra loses her remaining eye.
Nix's Fire Red Nuzlocke:
- Rick being killed by a wild Spearow. Nix is devastated.
- Said wild Spearow is caught and named Dredd. He evolves into a Fearow, only to be killed by Misty's Starmie.
- After being told that she couldn't control her Pokemon in battle, Nix orders Charlie to "go wild," and this leads to Charlie burning Rupert (Gary's Raticate) alive. Surprisingly, this is treated as a Gory Discretion Shot.
Jet's Black Nuzlocke:
- Our first casualty: Broccoli the Pansage, dying to save the Munna he has a crush on.
- Bottles' death, not helped by him being a Kamina expy.
- Lilly's death may be the worst so far—we get a five second Hope Spot before she narrates a heartwrenching monologue about how unfair it is that she has to die now and how much she wishes it could have lasted longer as she plummets to her death. Her funeral afterward is also heartbreaking, with Jet wallowing in guilt and her Pokemon crying at Lilly's grave. Special mention goes to Firedog, who just sits there at her grave, too distraught to even say anything.
