A Single White RosebyWyldBreeze©
He looked down where she lay, looking so peaceful and serene in the soft light. In his hand, he held a single white rose. His eyes misted over as he silently acknowledged her beauty. Even at seventy-four years of age, she looked just as beautiful as she had on their wedding day fifty-six years ago today.
Elizabeth had been a beautiful bride, both inside and out. Robert had wanted to get married as soon as he'd asked her on Independence Day but she had stubbornly insisted on a Valentine's Day wedding. Those five months had seemed like an eternity to him, but he would have given her the world just to be with her. She had often said he did just that.
Robert smiled to himself as he thought someone should have warned him about this woman. Elizabeth was a stubborn woman, and though her stubbornness was often thoroughly frustrating and the cause of many an argument throughout their lives, it was one of the charms that had pulled them together. She was a strong, independent woman who had high ideals, yet she had always found a way to keep him blissfully happy without giving up on her cause at the time.
Robert closed his eyes and was instantly transported back to their wedding day. His breath caught in his throat as he watched her walking down the aisle toward him. "My God, she's gorgeous," he thought to himself as Elizabeth grew nearer. She was dressed in a simple yet beautiful hand-made gown that she and her mother had toiled over in the months following the proposal. Her hair was pulled back and laced with a ring of wildflowers. In her hand, she held a single white rose.
The rose, through the years, had become a private message between the two of them. Elizabeth had always loved white roses because, as she described it, they were a symbol of pureness. Because of her reasoning, the rose had come to mean so many things to the couple. It was first and foremost a symbol of the pureness of their loyalty and love to one another. On more than one occasion, it had become an apology for one of the many arguments that the couple had throughout their years together. Things weren't always perfect and there were a lot of ups and downs, but a well placed rose at the right time seemed to jolt the two of them back to what was important: each other.
They had never bought each other a gift for Valentine's Day or their wedding anniversary. Elizabeth said that each day together was a gift in itself, so it had become his tradition to give her a single white rose on that special day. She, in turn, had given him a love deeper than most would ever know in their lifetime. Even in the hard times, the rose became a simple yet strong symbol of understanding for a simple yet strong love.
Robert opened his eyes, looking at her once more. Lying there peacefully, she looked like an angel. How many times had he laid awake just watching her sleep and thinking the very same thought. How many times had she watched him without him knowing? Was he ever able to make her as happy as she made him? She would be upset with him for questioning that, he knew. She had made her happiness known years ago on their wedding night. He hadn't really doubted it since.
Their wedding night had been magic. The newlyweds had driven up the coast a short distance to a beach cottage for a long honeymoon weekend. Though it wasn't the first time they had been together, it was the first time as man and wife. The hours of that night were seared in his mind forever.
Robert and Elizabeth sipped champagne and danced in the silent room, needing no music. Their bodies moved slowly together as one, their lips meeting softly and slowly. Each soft touch and each meeting of their lips built their desire to a slow, deep burn. Robert breathed in the scent of the wildflowers in Elizabeth's hair as he slowly unbuttoned the back of her dress while their feet glided across the floor.
"I want to give you the world, Beth....the moon and the stars," he had whispered to her.
Elizabeth had stopped dancing and looked up at him. She was silent for so long that he worried he may have done something wrong. Tears filled her eyes as she tiptoed to place a long, sweet kiss on his lips. She looked at him with such love and devotion at that moment, that he knew no other doubts would ever fill his mind about her. Her words floated across his ears and pierced his heart, branding him forever.
"Don't you see, Robert? You already have."
Elizabeth's simple statement filled Robert with such love and need that his mouth descended on hers with a heartfelt passion. Elizabeth returned the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him deep into her embrace. As the kiss broke, each was in a frenzy to undress their mate. As the last of the garments fell to the floor in a sea of lace and satin, Elizabeth dropped to her knees. Robert's legs almost buckled as he felt the first soft touch of her lips on his stomach, just below his navel.
Elizabeth slowly moved her mouth down lower, swirling her tongue lower and lower yet never touching her desired treasure. Robert's fingers clutched at Elizabeth's hair, sending flower petals falling silently to the floor. Her tongue glistened over his balls before sucking the right one in her mouth. All the air rushed out of the room for him as she sucked his orb and let her tongue dance across the surface of it simultaneously. Just as he thought he could stand no more, she stopped.
Elizabeth looked up at him with lust in her eyes. Taking his shaft in her hand, she slowly licked from the base to the tip before slipping the head inside her warm, moist mouth. Robert's hips bucked, forcing his cock a little deeper in her mouth. Elizabeth moaned around his cock, sending vibrations skittering along his spine. Upon hearing his animalistic groan, Elizabeth starting bobbing her head up and down on his cock, making sure to take each inch of him as far as she could over and over again.
Robert tore himself away from Elizabeth's bewitching mouth. He picked her up and lay her on the bed. He wanted nothing more than to bury himself deep inside her tight, hot pussy, but he wanted her as ready as he was. He positioned himself between her legs, inhaling her scent and seeing that she was already wet with want. He pushed her thighs apart and slowly ran his tongue up her moist lips. Elizabeth's hips bucked off the bed at his first touch. Robert smiled to himself and started a relentless onslaught of sucking, kissing, and licking of Elizabeth's very essence that soon brought her to the brink of insanity.
Each time Robert's fingers or tongue would ever so slightly caress her clit, Elizabeth would moan his name, almost seeing stars. She was building closer and closer to climax when Robert suddenly slid his finger deep inside her. He almost came himself when her pussy tightened around his finger and her gasps and moans of pleasure echoed with each spasm of her body.
Robert slowly kissed up the length of her body, licking and nibbling at her nipples as Elizabeth came down from the high of her first climax. She could taste herself on his lips as his tongue delved into her mouth. She reached between their bodies and took his throbbing cock in her hand, stroking lightly then easing it up and down her lips. Elizabeth placed the tip of his cock at the opening of her dripping pussy and waited for him to move. He held her head in his hands, their eyes never breaking contact until Elizabeth gasped and her eyes closed in pleasure when he buried himself ever so deep inside her with one forceful thrust.
From that point on, the tenderness was over. Their need was so animalistic, so demanding, that Elizabeth could do little but hold onto Robert as his need was met with each pounding thrust of his body. Her legs wrapped around his waist, trying to pull him impossibly deeper and harder inside her. There was such a mixture of pain and pleasure that Elizabeth never wanted him to stop. His body melded with hers, merged into one over and over.
The silence of the room was broken only by their gasps of breath and grunts of exertion as the crashing waves of the ocean echoed in the background. Elizabeth's fingers dug into Robert's back, leaving their mark as he exploded in one more powerful thrust deeply inside her. Their cries echoed throughout the cottage, though neither heard as they were so drawn to the moment and the intense relief of release.
As their bodies settled, their breathing quieting, neither had the energy to speak. There was no need to speak, for their emotions had been expressed in the deepest, most simple way. Robert simply tucked Elizabeth in his arms, kissing her forehead tenderly, and held her protectively. This would be the first night of many that they fell asleep, still connected, on more level than one.
"Excuse me, sir. It's time to go. We really need to take care of things now." The young man looked apologetic and more than a little uncomfortable for having to break Robert from his reverie.
Robert smiled sadly at the young man in understanding. He turned to look one last time at his love. Leaning down, he placed a kiss on her forehead as he did every night. A solitary tear slid from his cheek and landed on hers. It would be the last thing they would ever share. He laid the single white rose on the bed with her still body.
"Happy Valentine's Day, love," he whispered to her for the last time, before quietly walking out of the hospital room.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 29, 2013) - Standard Graphite Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SGH)(OTCQX:DARDF) (the "Company") is pleased to report that the assay results from the 2012 drill program on the newly discovered Oat Zone confirms graphite mineralization (see press release September 11, 2012).
Chris Bogart, President and CEO of Standard comments: "The Oat Zone discovery is very critical for the development of the Mousseau East Project and we believe will contribute significantly to the expansion of the resource potential on the project. We are now confident that following this next program, Standard will have obtained sufficient geological information to conduct a resource estimate and move the project to its next stage of development."
The Oat Zone has now been traced over a strike length of 500m, shows significant widths and is known to crop-out to surface. Current geological interpretation of the Oat Zone concludes that is probably made up of several graphitic horizons and this model will need to be validated with further drilling.
To view a map of the results please click here:
A follow-up drill program has being planned for the Oat Zone and will commence upon permitting. The first objective will aim at testing the direct extensions of the wider graphitic horizons intercepted during the reconnaissance phase and secondly, to test areas with similar conductivity and geometry as that characterizing the main zone at Mousseau East for the possibility of hosting graphitic rocks.
The Mousseau East Property was acquired by Standard Graphite in April of 2012 (see press release April 24, 2012) and is located some 40 kilometres northeast of the town of Mont-Laurier in northwestern Québec and within 50 kilometres of Timcal Canada Inc.'s producing Lac-des-Îles Graphite Mine, which is currently the larger of the two producing mines in North America.
Antoine Fournier P. Geo., manages Standard's exploration and development programs and is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. He supervised the preparation of the technical information in this release.
About Standard Graphite
Standard Graphite Corp is focused exclusively on the exploration and development of a large portfolio of flake graphite properties in Canada. The company is rapidly positioning itself as North America's premier pure-play graphite exploration company and it controls 100% interest in 13 highly prospective graphite properties within known graphite districts in both Quebec and Ontario. An aggressive 2012 exploration strategy has commenced and will be implemented by a geologic team with the pedigree of a previous world-class graphite discovery.

U.S. Attorney Kenneth A. Polite announced that a federal jury has convicted TIMOTHY JONES, a/k/a "Lucci," "King Lucci," "Lucci Loco," age 25, from Memphis, for his role in sex trafficking two minors into the New Orleans area for the purposes of those minors engaging in prostitution. The jury convicted JONES on all eight counts with which he was charged, including conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, sex trafficking two minor females through the use of force, fraud, and coercion, transporting a minor across state lines for the purpose of her engaging in prostitution.
"As proven at trial, Jones engaged in the sex trafficking of minors and used violence as a means of coercion," stated U.S. Attorney Polite. "He will now spend at least 15 years in prison for his reprehensible actions."
According to evidence presented at trial, in early December 2013, JONES met and began recruiting Minor Victim 1, a 17-year-old female from Baton Rouge, to work for him in prostitution, performing numerous "dates" per day, based on quotas he set for her. For approximately three weeks, Minor Victim 1 worked for him, before escaping the New Orleans area.
In early January 2014, JONES and a co-conspirator recruited Minor Victim 2, a sixteen-year-old female, in Memphis and coerced her to work for him in prostitution. JONES then took Minor Victim 2 to Louisville, Kentucky, to work in prostitution. Thereafter, JONES transported Minor Victim 2 to New Orleans to work for him in prostitution. Minor Victim 2 worked for JONES until February 11, 2014, when a United States Marshals Task Force recovered her and arrested JONES at a hotel in downtown New Orleans.
JONES required Victim 1 and Victim 2 to give him all of the money they earned from engaging in prostitution. JONES advertised prostitution dates with Victim 1 and Victim 2 using an online classified website and also forced them to solicit prostitution dates on Bourbon Street and on Chef Menteur Highway. JONES "paid" Minor Victim 1 a total of $10 for her work. JONES instructed both victims on how much to charge for sex, how to solicit "dates," and how to avoid detection by law enforcement. He also instructed them to steal credit cards, wallets, cash, and other valuables from customers. Other females testified at trial that JONES exploited them in a similar manner.
JONES used a variety of means to control his victims, whom he knew were minors. JONES beat Victim 1 and Victim 2 to punish them for disrespecting him or not earning enough money. He also slapped and punched them to keep them from leaving him. Further, while in front of Minor Victim 1 and Minor Victim 2, JONES brutally beat other females who worked for him as prostitutes as a means of threatening and intimidating his minor victims into complying with his demands.
JONES faces a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of fifteen years and a maximum sentence of life in prison for his crimes. Sentencing before Judge Martin L.C. Feldman has been scheduled for June 29, 2016, at 1:30 pm.
U.S. Attorney Polite praised the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation – New Orleans Division and the United States Department of Homeland Security – Homeland Security Investigations, with cooperation from the FBI's Memphis Field Office in investigating this matter. Assistant United States Attorneys Jordan Ginsberg and Jonathan L. Shih were in charge of the prosecution.

"We are all insects on the back of our motherland" is a study of movement in space and the construction of place among the Halh nomads of Arhangai in Mongolia. The main concern is to explore how the manifestation of place and how the Halh nomads' movement in space can be seen as intrinsically tied up with notions of temporality, endurance and hierarchy. Quintessential to this study is the ger, their dwelling, the significant place for Halh nomads. The thesis explore the dialectic relationship between the ger as a bounded place enmeshed with ontological significance and the socially produced relational spaces of this place. It analyses how spatial constructs and ideas about social relations impart an 'order' mediated and manifested by, on the one hand, the structural qualities of place and, on the other hand, the processual qualities of space. Hence, while the ger as a contained place provides the frame-work for contextual negotiation of significant values and the relational aspect of order, space can be seen as the medium.
By way of analysis of the spatio-symbolic divisions of the ger and how people locate themselves and move in relation to these divisions, this study shows how the constructed values of social and spatial order are grounded in a hierarchic social and cosmological universe. Thus, the hierarchical relations of values manifested in the spatial array of the ger emerge as a significant focus for the continuous production, re-production and construction of meaning and social relations. The relational aspect of space and place is explored through a focus on four different aspects which form part of Halh nomad social organisation: spatial and social prescriptions; movement between seasonal pastures; kinship and; the hierarchical ordering of values.
Notable to this study is the fact that Halh nomads have a mobile life-style based on seasonal movement of people, livestock and property from one place in the landscape to another. A study of place and space among Halh nomads must necessarily be pursued with a sensitivity to the fact that the ideas and values of temporality and mobility are essential to their 'being-in-the world'. Yet, as this thesis explore, these values are in a constant dynamic relationship with the values of stability and endurance. As will emerge from the following pages, the ideal value of equilibrium is a matter of an on-going balance - of maintaining order and preventing dis-order. In the following analysis of Halh nomads' use of space, of place and movement, this 'balancing' works as an underlying premise for their social and spatial organisation.

I've been having issues with my photos
which is preventing me from sharing all the
over the top skiing cuteness that is Ava.
After way more work then it was worth
I was able to salvage some of the photos
that were feeling lost to me.
Without further ado, here is our skiing pro.
Saying bye to Norah. ready to hit the slopes.
She zips down the hill, weaving through all
the less confident people around her.
See that lady pointing to Ava?
Many parents & instructors were using
her as an example to motivate their little skiers.
Norah has been the trickiest part of all this fun.
While Ava skis what do you do with Norah?
Usually I just stay home wit her but this
time I let her wander around in the snow.
Either way, I don't get to ski.
I'm still learning myself so I cant really take Ava.
Oh well, Norah sure is cute!
On the steeper hills Grandma helps Ava.
It's so great they get to do this together.
I love watching how happy & confident it makes Ava.
She is so proud of herself.
She loves the chairlift, shes just not quite
tall enough to get on it without being lifted up.
She has mastered the Magic carpet,
she used to fall every. single. time.
when getting off of it, but now she's got it!
She doesn't even ever want us to go with
her on that hill anymore, unless we plan
to race her down.
It's so fun watching her master this new skill!
Ava is such a rock star!

Activision has released the first image of the Nuketown 2025 map for Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
Nuketown 2025 will be given for free to all players who pre-order the game or anyone who purchases the Hardened or Care Package special editions.
In addition to the multiplayer map, Activision has also announced that anyone who's pre-ordered the title will get access to a double XP weekend between November 16 and 18 to celebrate the game's launch.
Nuketown 2025 is an updated version of the Nuketown map, which first appeared in the original Black Ops. As one of the smallest maps in the game, the original Nuketown is based on a typical U.S. suburb used to demonstrate the effects of a nuclear weapon on a residential area, replete with mannequins.
The updated Nuketown 2025 will still encourage the close quarters combat that made the original so popular, but has been re-imagined in a depiction of the "Model Home of the Future". This isn't the only appearance that the Nuketown map will make in the game though; anyone who buys the Hardened, Care Package or Digital Deluxe editions of the game will receive the Nuketown Zombies bonus map for use in Black Ops II's Zombies mode.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II will release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on November 13, and on the Wii U on its respective launch dates.

As part of our inquiry learning each school was given a .5 planning day for the Teacher-Librarian and teacher to co-plan a unit together. Our first task, and one of our goals was to develop a robust inquiry question that was authentic, significant and relevant to students' learning. To help frame our planning we used the Understanding By Design planning template that allowed us to stay focused on the big ideas and to uncover the essential questions for the units.
What is an essential question?
We know that essential questions should reflect what is needed for learning core content, but what makes it essential? Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe (Understanding By Design, 2005, p.110) propose that a question is essential if it is meant to:
- Cause genuine and relevant inquiry into the big ideas and core content
- Provoke deep thought, lively discussion, sustained inquiry, and new understanding as well as more questions
- Require students to consider alternatives, weigh evidence, support their ideas, and justify their answers
- Stimulate vital, ongoing rethinking of big ideas, assumptions, prior lessons
- Spark meaningful connections with prior learning and personal experiences
- Naturally recur, creating opportunities for transfer to other situations and subjects
We grappled with our essential questions, and mulled over the enduring understandings and here is what we came up with:
EAL Essential Question: Who am I?
Grade 3/4 Essential Question: Why are rocks, minerals, and soil important to us?
How did we determine our essential questions? We delved into the curriculum, looked for cross-curricular connections and thought about what we wanted our students to know and to understand at the end of the unit. This was challenging as EAL has their own outcomes and we had a split grade 3/4 class to make curricular connections across the subject areas.
Even though this is an inquiry, both of my teachers have decided to structure the learning through the guided inquiry process. As a result, we also came up with sub-questions that would guide the student learning along the way.
As we continue on in the inquiry, I think it will be important to come back to the criteria of an essential question and reflect on whether or not our questions met that criteria.


text: The Japanese have embraced high technology with as much, or more, enthusiasm as Americans. There`s at least one color television in 99 percent of Japanese homes and stereos in 60 percent. Some 40 percent of homes have microwave ovens and 20 percent have video cassette recorders. Japan produces more robots than any other country. Yet incongruities abound. Only 35 percent of Japanese communities have modern sewer systems, compared to 85 percent in the U.S. Just 51 percent of roads in Japan were paved as of 1982, compared to 85 percent of ours. Very few Japanese enjoy the use of a clothes dryer or a dishwasher. Homes in Japan average about 932 square feet, a third the size of the average American home. Despite the fact that Japan enjoys a trade and capital surplus, many average Japanese citizens lack those comforts that we Americans deem simple.

Apple receives a level of media coverage that could be argued as disproportionate according a new report. (And yes, we at GeeksAreSexy are aware of the irony involved in covering this report and giving the company even more publicity!)
The Pew Research Center looked through 437 tech stories across 11 newspapers, three cable news channels, three TV network news shows, 12 mainstream news websites and 10 radio programs to draw its conclusions. That's something of a problem in itself: that breakdown may be somewhat close to the relative influence of each form of media (though TV should probably be higher), but it doesn't necessarily reflect the diversity within each form. For example, even the output of just six channels is far more representative of all TV news than 12 websites is of the entire web.
The five tech companies with the most coverage were Apple (15.1% of all tech stories), Google (11.4%), Twitter (7.1%), Facebook (4.8%) and Microsoft (3.0%). It should be noted that even though the research covered a 13-month period (June 2009-July 2010), the Twitter figure appears to have been notably distorted by coverage of its role in protests over the Iranian election last year.
So why the disparity between Apple and Microsoft? Part of it seems to have been that Apple's business is based more around events: during the study period it had the launch of two different iPhone models plus the iPad. Indeed, these stories plus the App store and Steve Jobs' health made up almost the entire Apple coverage.
Microsoft had its own high-profile release of course with Windows 7. That raises the possibility that the Apple coverage stems from its products being eyecatching gadgets that lend themselves more to both broadcasting and multimedia websites, whereas arguably the main selling point of Windows 7 is that it doesn't crash or throw up error messages as often, something that hardly makes for an exciting demonstration. That theory is somewhat born out by the fact that the Apple gadget coverage made up a considerably lower proportion among newspaper articles, where writers can go into more depth.
It's also possible the Apple coverage becomes somewhat self-perpetuating. For example, once the iPhone 4's release got so much attention, it made follow-up stories about the handset's reception problems a more obvious topic to cover.
The study also noted that when it came to individual stories, matters of politics and procedure such as the FTC's broadband regulation and net neutrality received comparatively little coverage. The only real exception was the ongoing debate about texting while driving, and related laws, which was the most-covered individual story, making up 8.5% of all coverage. That one makes sense: although net neutrality arguably affects almost as many people (if not more), the consequences of dangerous driving are clearly much easier to illustrate, particularly aided by the reader/viewer's imagination.

Well known as a famous spa town in North Yorkshire, Harrogate is a popular tourist destination with visitors to the area. It has a great choice of restaurants, hotels and bars, as well as a great selection of Harrogate toy shops. The modern Victoria Shopping Centre is home to many well known fashion and designer chain stores.
Plenty of multiple groups like Mothercare are located here, but other independent toy shops can be found in all of Harrogate's interesting streets and roads that criss cross all over the town. The Rocking Horse in Westminster Arcade is also worth a special mention. Their traditional and wooden toys selections are beautifully displayed in this lovely part of the town.
As well as being a toy shopping destination, Harrogate also plays host to the Harrogate Nursery Fair and the Toymaster Show each year.

The Phigvel Makers Co Fall/Winter 2012 collection is a homage to the fashion of the industrial workers of America. Thick wool sweaters, warm flannel and fleece line coats creatively decorate the pages of the Japanese label's lookbook.
Styled to be like a journey into the past, the lookbook is centrally black and white with colored images popping up unexpectedly. The absence of color in the photographs reflects onto the clothing pieces that are made up of mostly neutral tones. The pieces from the Phigvel Makers Co Fall/Winter 2012 collection are meant to be timeless. They show off vintage finesse with a modern twist that is durable enough to last for many seasons to come. A stand-out piece from the collection are the long tan trench coats with the wrap around belt, that are a shapely overcoat for a rainy day.

Q. My husband is diabetic and is living with insulin. He is again having nausea, heartburn, high bloating.. My husband is diabetic and is living with insulin injection. I am paralyzed in one leg and I am home bound. He is the sole earning person in our family to meet our financial needs. He has developed a high stress and depression due to his work which makes him to travel very frequently. He is holding a position in Sales Department. He was given antidepressants. They had helped him to reduce on his stress. But his stomach problems have increased after taking antidepressants. He is again having nausea, heartburn, high bloating and he even eats less as he feels himself full. This is giving stress to him and his depression is increasing again. What do we do? He is living a terrible life.
One young man wrote me the following e-mail: "I know God has all power, and I know He will help me if I'm worthy, but I'm just never worthy enough to ask for His help. I want Christ's grace, but I always find myself stuck in the same self-defeating and impossible position: no work, no grace."
I wrote him back and testified with all my heart that Christ is not waiting at the finish line once we have done "all we can do" (
genuine cheap online free shipping pick a best Vans Unisex Era 59 Skate Shoes Racing Red/Black nicekicks cheap online visa payment sale online new arrival fcmVn03aRC
). He is with us every step of the way.
Elder Bruce C. Hafen has written, "The Savior's gift of grace to us is not necessarily limited in time to 'after' all we can do. We may receive his grace before, during and after the time when we expend our own efforts" ( The Broken Heart [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1989], 155). So grace is not a booster engine that kicks in once our fuel supply is exhausted. Rather, it is our constant energy source. It is not the light at the end of the tunnel but the light that moves us through the tunnel. Grace is not achieved somewhere down the road. It is received right here and right now. It is not a finishing touch; it is the Finisher's touch (see Hebrews 12:2 ).
In twelve days we celebrate Pioneer Day. The first company of Saints entered the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847. Their journey wasdifficult and challenging; still, they sang:
Come, come, ye Saints, no toil nor labor fear;
But with joy wend your way.
Though hard to you this journey may appear,
Grace shall be as your day.
clearance 2015 FRYE Womens Gemma Kiltie Fashion Sneaker Grey best wholesale for sale XmcCEL6b
"Grace shall be as your day"—what an interesting phrase. We have all sung it hundreds of times, but have we stopped to consider what it means? "Grace shall be as your day": grace shall be like a day. As dark as night may become, we can always count on the sun coming up. As dark as our trials, sins, and mistakes may appear, we can always have confidence in the grace of Jesus Christ. Do we earn a sunrise? No. Do we have to be worthy of a chance to begin again? No. We just have to accept these blessings and take advantage of them. As sure as each brand-new day, grace—the enabling power of Jesus Christ—is constant. Faithful pioneers knew they were not alone. The task ahead of them was never as great as the power behind them.
The grace of Christ is sufficient—sufficient to cover our debt, sufficient to transform us, and sufficient to help us as long as that transformation process takes. The Book of Mormon teaches us to rely solely on "the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah" (
cheap discount excellent for sale Sanuk Mens Vagabond B amp; T Sidewalk Surfer Grey free shipping reliable for sale cheap price best prices cheap price EdCNNm8gT6
). As we do, we do not discover—as some Christians believe—that Christ requires nothing of us. Rather, we discover the reason He requires so much and the strength to do all He asks (see Philippians 4:13 ). Grace is not the absence of God's high expectations. Grace is the presence of God's power (see Luke 1:37 ).

The 1978 Malibu Classic featured a brand new wheelbase chassis compared to older generations of Chevrolet Malibu. Also, despite being lighter and shorter, it provided extra leg room and luggage space.
A smaller replacement for the Chevelle, the Malibu earned its full-fledged model status after years of out-selling every other car in the Chevelle lineup. With a choice of body styles that ranged from coupe to four-door-salon and station wagon, the Malibu Classic was a slimmed-down answer to its predecessors - as General Motors attempted to downsize its range of mid-size cars.
The rear-wheel-drive 1978 Malibu Classic's base engine was a 3.3-liter V-6 developing 95 horsepower, with upgrades of 105 or 145 horsepower available for the salon and coupe versions and a 170-horsepower V-8 upgrade for the station wagon.
Sold for a base price of $4,204 at the time, the 1978 Malibu Classic featured a completely new 108.1-inch wheelbase chassis. The fourth generation of Chevrolet's Malibu series, it was over 500 pounds lighter and a foot shorter, and yet provided extra leg room and luggage space compared to previous models. Among the new features were a dual mode upper/lower interior ventilation system and a power-operated antenna that automatically extended or lowered, depending on whether the ignition was on or off.
With 358,636 models built, the Malibu Classic was not only a popular model with the public, but one often used in law enforcement as a replacement for the Chevrolet Nova.

Our Mission
As global warming and carbon dioxide emissions become an increasingly greater concern for our planet, Agrinol Inc. is working hard to create and offer clean energy solutions -- wind energy, solar energy, ethanol production and new fuel additives. At Agrinol, we are developing ways to reduce the emission of CO2 and the spread of other pollutants through our R&D efforts. The world is at a critical stage of climate change and global warming, and a collective effort is required to ensure a cleaner environment for future generations.
Our Goal
The United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) in its announcement the Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations (FAO) announced "1 Billion people live in chronic hunger "Put pressure on government to make the elimination of hunger their top priority" That is FAO said www.1billionhungry.org" confirms the critical importance of this issue. We are facing many challenges and to solve them we need to work together in order to save our planet, our standard of living, and our very way of life.
Our goal at Agrinol is to:
|For the population
|For the environment
Biodiesel and ethanol: Solution or Problem ?
The production and consumption of biodiesel and ethanol from crops has serious negative effects, including water and soil depletion, air and water pollution, global warming pollution, genetic pollution from biotech crops, net energy loss and nation insecurity.
Feed cars or people ?
Since the start of 2006, the average world prices for wheat, corn and soybeans have risen 138%, 125%, and 107%, respectively due in large part to both rising global populations and the push for biofuels and ethanol.
There simply is not enough land, water or productive soil to grow crops to feed the world and meet the world's energy needs. Global warming will also make this more difficult over time, as we'll be facing diminishing crop yields world wide due to changing weather patterns.
Since biodiesel burns hotter than diesel, nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions are actually higher -- up to nearly 3.5 times that of gasoline.
Biofuels in general "result in more atmospheric CO2 pollutions than burning an energy equivalent amount of oil".
For more information visit: www.EnergyJustice.net
As result of pollution and climate change, we can see around the world right now in 2010:
- Floods in Pakistan and China.
- Firs threaten Russian nuclear site.
- Heat waves this summer in many countries people die as a result.
- Dry weather affected and damaged many crops and foods in various countries.
Overall, we seek to:
- DECREASE carbon dioxide and green house gases, pollution by heavy metals,
- INCREASE air cleanliness, general health, employment income and agricultural efficiency
- SAVE money, our planet's environment, and our natural resources (water, soil, food)
This applies to all sectors of our society. Governments need to encourage energy efficiency and provide incentives for conservation. While the private sector clearly needs to do its part, positive encouragement will help us to achieve a better world.

You know, it's only now that I'm realising just how 'busy' (euphemism) life has been since Kimbal was born and then Luella was born 16 months later.
One child? Pft, easy peasy, even with a little girl who needed to be held to sleep and while sleeping. This actually worked in our favour sometimes, we could take Olivia anywhere and she'd sleep just like she was at home. I even had a spare hand left to hold my champagne.
Two children? Harder, but not too difficult. Allocating one child per parent makes going out in public. A bit of a pain co-ordinating 2 different sleep times, but by the time Kimbal was 1 he was down to sharing the lunchtime nap with Olivia. At this stage I was thinking 'no more babies'! This is too perfect.
Three children? Wow. What a year it has been (almost a year, I should save that phrase for when she really is 1). For the first 10 months, Lu would sleep every 2-3 hours and only in her sling or cot. So we could go for a walk, if it didn't upset the sleep times of the other 2 and if the weather was favourable and if we could guarantee we'd be home for her next feed and if we had a bag full of snacks in case the others got whingey and if we were prepared to stop at the park on the way and if I was prepared for the tantrum upon leaving the park and if....get it? Actually those some worries work for any time we could possibly leave the house, up until now. Now our reasons for not going anywhere include will it be safe for me to keep my 2 eyeballs on 3 children? But again, with Peter's eyeballs too, the odds are again in our favour. 4 eyeballs, 3 children. Maybe we could have another?!
Here's a pic of the backseat of our car. We were heading to a party the other night, and I looked back and thought I should record this time of 3 carseats filling the back of the sedan. BTW, we had to leave the party early. Kimbal fell headfirst down some stairs, and Lu needed sleep but wouldn't settle. Such is life.

DAVIE — Her office used to be a fire station, but you won`t find Community Services Director Sharon Kent sliding down a fire pole to a meeting.
Kent will be taking the stairs instead, because renovations at former Fire Station One are nearly complete. The building will be the new home of the Utility and Community Services departments.
``The office is a great improvement over our other office,`` Kent said. ``We`ve got more room than we`ve ever had before. You`d never know this used to be a fire station.``
The new building has caused some temporary confusion in town government as visitors and employees alike try to figure outwhich offices belong to what departments. The Community Services Department has already moved into its new office and the Utilities Department is expected to move in by early March,
said Planning Director Bob Mearns.
``After building the rodeo arena, this is pretty small stuff,`` he said. ``It`s not a major project. It`s mostly just moving people around. This allows the departments to expand their staffs now that they have the room to do it.``
Utilities Director Danny Colabella said the main difference for his department will be closing the drive-up window where residents pay their bills.
``It`s the same amount of space as we had before,`` he said. ``But there`s no room for the drive-up window. People used to tie up traffic and come in to talk about their billing problems. So instead of the window, we added a waiting room.``
The former Utilities Department space will become offices for Town Council members, Mearns said. Until now, council members have had no private offices and met people in the Town Hall conference room or the community room.

Cape Town -Branden Grace became the first South African winner of the Nedbank Golf Challenge in a decade at Sun City on Sunday, and South Africa's greatest ever golfer was the first to jump out of his chair and hug him on behalf of thousands of fans.
As it happened: Nedbank Golf Challenge Day 4
With a final round of 66, Grace won "Africa's Majoramp;" by a single stroke on 11 under par and ended a win drought of South Africans in this event stretching back to Trevor Immelman's triumph in 2007.
"This is awesome. This is the one event that as a South African you want to win. It's Africa's Major for a reason and what a special place it is. There's a lot of history and a lot of great winners on the trophy and I'm very glad to be able to put my name on the trophy as well,amp;" said a delighted Grace.
The South African was involved in a great contest with Scotland's Scott Jamieson that saw them tied for the lead on 10 under playing the par-three 16th.
With so many Nedbank Golf Challenge's having been decided on this hole, the 2017 edition made for another one of these great moments.
After a wayward tee shot that hit the grandstand and bounced back out into the greenside rough, Jamieson almost holed his chip shot from there, which lipped the hole. He tapped in for par. That left Grace with an almost 50-foot putt. And he rolled it straight in to take a one-stroke lead.
That was all the lead he needed and he carried it to 18, and into the history books. It was the putt that Player himself voted as his StrokeofGenius for the final day.
"It was great to finish the way I did. It was great to be able to pull it off. I hit the ball superb today and gave myself some chances. I didn't take all of them, but I did what I needed to do.amp;"
Grace is the seventh winner on the European Tour's elite Rolex Series this year, and with this being the penultimate event on the Race to Dubai.
"That's awesome. It's special to win here, firstly, and then special to win one of the Rolex Series tournaments as well.amp;"
Jamieson took second place on 10 under with a closing 70, and with his challenge hampered by a double bogey six on the tough eighth hole.
Frenchman Victor Dubuisson took third place on nine under par, and China's Haotong Li stormed through the field with a final round of 64 to finish fourth on seven under.

16 July 2015
A Harefield Hospital patient has become the first person in the world to be officially named the longest surviving heart-lung transplant recipient by Guinness World Records.
After celebrating the 30th anniversary of his transplant at Harefield earlier this year, Andrew Whitby, 51, from Teddington, south west London, has now received the certificate confirming his world record, making him the first person in history to hold the title.
Andrew was born with a congenital heart condition, commonly referred to as a 'hole in the heart', which meant his heart had to work much harder than normal to pump oxygenated blood around his body. When he was diagnosed at six months, Andrew's parents were told his defect was inoperable and that he was unlikely to live for more than a few years.
Incredibly Andrew surpassed his doctors' expectations and against the odds lived a relatively normal life growing up.
He explained:
"I felt the same as any other child – I went to school, played football and did the same things as my classmates, although I remember getting tired quickly during physical activities."
However, aged 20, Andrew's health quickly deteriorated and he developed pleurisy, inflammation of the sheet-like layers (the pleura) that cover the lungs. Doctors thought his heart defect may have put more pressure on his lungs, contributing to the condition.
In December 1984 one of Andrew's lungs collapsed and he was referred to Harefield Hospital where his suitability for a heart-lung transplant was assessed.
In February 1985, under the care of pioneering transplant surgeon Professor Sir Magdi Yacoub, Andrew became only the ninth person to ever have the procedure in the UK. Professor Yacoub had carried out the UK's first combined heart and lung transplant at Harefield in 1983.
Andrew said:
"Looking back now, it is remarkable to think that I was one of the first people to have a heart-lung transplant. At the time I was told I had a 70 per cent chance of living for five years. I'm very lucky when you consider the people who had the same procedure before me are no longer alive. Now I feel that every day I live is a bonus.
"Now I'm generally in good health. I think being active has helped me to stay healthy – I like walking and swimming and during the summer I walk the 2.5 miles to work and back."
Andrew was reminded of the value of organ donation when his nephew died suddenly nine years ago, three weeks before his 18th birthday. Aware of his uncle's transplant, he had signed the Organ Donor Register and following his death some of his organs were donated to patients waiting for life-saving transplants.
"His death was a tragedy but knowing he helped other people to live provided comfort. It made me feel even more grateful to my donor."
Thanks to the heart-lung transplant he had 30 years ago, Andrew is still active and working in retail today.
"It's very exciting to have a Guinness World Record and I want to use it to boost awareness of how life changing transplantation really is.
"My heart-lung transplant has improved and extended my life beyond measure. We need more people to sign the Organ Donor Register – without donors, where would that leave people like me?"
Mr Andre Simon, director of transplantation at Harefield Hospital, said:
"Andrew's world record shows how a person's life can be completely transformed through the gift of organ donation. For hundreds of patients every year in the UK, heart and lung transplantation is the only treatment that can offer them a future. His achievement should inspire other patients who have received donated organs, as well as those still waiting for a life-saving transplant.
"We are proud of the fact that Harefield Hospital has the best long-term survival rates in the UK for patients who have had a heart or lung transplant. Andrew is living proof that ongoing specialist care and a healthy lifestyle can mean patients can enjoy a good quality of life after transplant."
To mark Harefield Hospital's centenary year, Andrew is taking part in the annual Royal Brompton & Harefield Hospitals Charity Fun Run on September 6, when it is also hoped that more than 189 heart transplant patients will gather in one place (Harefield Hospital), which would break another Guinness World Record.

PENTICTON, B.C. (April 29, 2017) – The Brooks Bandits opened the WCC with a comeback win, scoring five consecutive goals to rebound from a 1-0 first period deficit and downing the BCHL representative Chilliwack Chiefs 5-2 to begin the 2017 Western Canada Cup.
The Bandits outshot Chilliwack 31-12 through the opening 40 minutes of play, and 36-24 in the game, moving their round robin record to 1-0.
Despite a 14-5 shot advantage for the Bandits in the opening period, Chilliwack had the only goal when a turnover at neutral ice led to an odd man rush for the Chiefs. A pad save by Mitch Benson (Windsor, ON) on the initial shot led to a rebound tap-in goal for Anthony Vincent, giving Chilliwack its first goal on just its second shot of the game.
The Bandits broke things open in the second, however, outshooting the Chiefs 17-7 and finally being rewarded for their dominant puck possession. First, Cale Makar (Calgary, AB) accepted a pass from Josh McKechney (Calgary, AB), snuck in to the low slot and fired a low shot past Chief goalie Matt Sinclair to knot the game at 1-1.
Less than two minutes later, a rebound opportunity in front of the Chief net was whacked in on a diving shot by rookie forward Arnaud Vachon (Ajax, ON), giving Brooks its first lead of the afternoon and one it would not relinquish. With Brooks on a power play in the final minute of the second, a Makar point shot deflected to the slot, where Parker Foo (Edmonton, AB) jammed it backdoor to McKechney at the side of the net; his quick shot beat Sinclair to give Brooks the 3-1 advantage heading into the third.
In the final frame, the Bandits extended the lead at 4:03 when Joe O'Connor (Hamden, CT) flung a pass from the left circle to a waiting Foo at the right side, who one-timed the puck in to make it 4-1. The Chiefs pulled goalie Sinclair, only to see the score move to 5-1 on the ensuing shift when Oliver Chau (Oakville, ON) centered from the left corner to captain Nick Prkusic (Medicine Hat, AB) at the top of the crease for a tip-in goal.
Connor McCarthy scored on a power play point shot with 5:05 left to pull Chilliwack within 3, but it was as close as the nominal home team would get, as the Bandits withstood late pressure with an empty Chief net and extra attacker, and held on for the 5-2 victory.
Benson made 22 saves on 24 shots for the win in his WCC debut.
The Bandits will take on the host Penticton Vees on Sunday night at 8:00 PM Mountain time, with the host team to come off its tournament opener tonight against the Saskatchewan champion Battlefords North Stars. Pre-game coverage for Bandits/Vees begins at 7:30 PM Mountain on Real Country 105.7.

Why Cities Survive and Companies Die
In this news interview, Eric Lundquist, Vice President of Strategic Content for Ziff Davis Enterprise, catches up with Geoffrey West at the Business Complexity and Global Leader Conference at Suffolk University. Geoffrey West was named as TIME magazine's "100 most influential people in the world," and for good reason. West is a theoretical physicist whose primary interests have been in fundamental questions in physics, especially those concerning the elementary particles, their interactions, and cosmological implications. His work was also selected as one of the breakthrough ideas of 2007 by the Harvard Business Review. The author of several books, West also is a Distinguished Professor and Past President of the Santa Fe Institute; a visiting Professor of Mathematics at Imperial College, London; and an Associate Fellow of the Said Business School at Oxford University. In this video interview, West discusses how his work in general scaling phenomena has a relation to the business world. As he notes, cities have long lives similar to the biological world, while businesses tend to have much shorter life spans. West also gives insight and speculates on how businesses should organize themselves for longe

Gorgeous country with high-quality education
When planning to study abroad most students want not only to get a good education but also have a life-time experience. Brazil is definitely a unique place that can provide both of these things.
The country is the 5th largest in the world by both population and area. It covers almost half of South America with around 4 500 miles of coastline. The nature in Brazil is astonishing. It attracts not only tourists but lots of foreign students every year as well. Two of the most famous natural sights are the Amazon River and Pantanal which is the largest wetland in the world with a great variety of wild animals like the jaguar, the capybara and the caiman.
And, of course, Brazil wouldn't be Brazil without the famous 130 feet tall statue, Christ The Redeemer which is located in Rio de Janeiro. It is much cheaper to explore South America as flight tickets from, for example, Rio de Janeiro to Argentina or Uruguay are quite affordable. This opens up great chances for students to see more astonishing places on their freetime in South America.
Higher education in Brazil has six categories: universities, university centers, integrated faculties and schools of higher education, institutions and isolated colleges. University centers are autonomous and have a wide range of courses. International students might find interesting options from other kind of institutions as well. Many courses in Brazil are held in Portuguese which means that you have a great chance to learn one of the most spoken languages in the world.
The quality of higher education is monitored every two years. If there are any educational institutes that do not correspond to set regulations and do not follow basic rules, they are taken under control by officials who ensure that improvement is going to happen.
Top 3 reasons to study in Brazil:
- Globally recognized quality of education
- Unforgettable and surprising nature
- Comfortable weather and affordable living costs
Did you know this about Brazil?
- Some study programs in Brazil merge internship and voluntary work in needy or indigenous communities.
- Sex change surgeries are free of charge under Brazil's public health system since 2008.
- Brazilian prisoners can reduce their sentence by 4 days for every book they read and write a report on.

No change is expected in Turkey's foreign policy under the new military administration, but a different approach is likely on some specific problems, such as differences with Greece.
The hope is that the military government will be able to cut through red tape and solve some of the difficult problems that have beset Turkey in the last five years. But there is, as yet, no guarantee that the new regime will be more successful at this than the weak civilian governments of the recent past.
The country's new strong man, Gen. Kenan Evre, has made it clear that Turkey will remain loyal to the NATO alliance and maintain its close ties with the United States. He also assured the West that Turkey will strengthen its relations with the European Community and similar Western institutions.
Diplomats here do not doubt the sincerity of these assurances by General Evren, whose pro-Western feelings are well known. The status of US military installations in Turkey, which have been reactivated following conclusion of a new bilateral defense treaty earlier this year, also is seen as guaranteed.
Turkey's parliament was supposed to discuss and ratify the pact, but it failed to because it was tied up over political matters. The National Security Council, the country's powerful policymaking body, is expected to have no difficulty enacting the agreement.
On the other hand, the Cyprus problem remains unsolved, and this is a matter that caused a serious rift with the United States in the wake of the 1974 Turkish military invasion of the island. Turkish troops remain in the northern portion of Cyprus.
If any important change of attitude by Turkey is going to take place, it may well be in relations with Greece, according to analysts here. Hopes have risen in Greek and other diplomatic circles following the military takeover.
One reason for optimism was General Evren's forthright statement terming Greece "our close neighbor and friends" and adding that the new Turkish administration "will deploy all efforts to improve Greek-Turkish relations and Greece's return to NATO's military structure."
Another reason for optimism on this score is that General Evren proved his goodwill in trying to solve Turkey's differences with Greece over the Aegean air space problem (by agreeing earlier this year to lift all restrictions on air traffic in the area). He also engaged in serious talks with NATO Comdr. Gen. Bernard Rogers on the question of Greece's return to NATO.
Good progress is understood to have been made in recent secret talks between General Rogers and General Evren, and a new formula satisfying all sides concerned is said to have been accepted, thus clearing the way for Greece's reintegration into NATO.
A third reason for optimism on Greek- Turkish relations -- and to some extent for settlement of the Cyprus problem -- is that Turkey may become more conciliatory and moderate under its new military regime than the previous unstable civilian government.
Said a Western analyst: "The politicians had to think about the political effects of any concession. In fact, political leaders were hardening their position. The soldiers have no such problem. If they believe that a settlement of these problems is in the best interest of the country, nothing can prevent them from taking the right step."
However, other analysts will wait and see if the military government will be successful in bridging the gap with Greece, since the difrefences between the two nations remain deep, with each side reluctant to make what it regards as further concessions.
One of the first tests of this possible change will be the meeting in New York early in October between the directors-general of the greek and Turkish foreign ministries. An important test will be the government's stand on the intercommunal talks that began in Cyprus last week. The new administration is expected to make a reappraisal of the question in the light of a recent visit to Cyprus by the new foreign minister, Ilter Turkmen.
The recent changes in Turkey apparently have been followed with some concern by Moscow. Some East European newspapers have been critical of the new military regime, describing it as a threat to the "democratic forces" and the working class in Turkey.
General Evren told his first press conference that Turkey will continue to support detente and maintain good relations with the Soviet Union, which he said "has a special responsibility in the preservation of peace and security in the world." East European diplomats here welcome this official attitude but seem anxious to see whether there will be any real change of policy toward the communist blow under the military administration.
