LAWRENCE, Kan. -- A Lawrence woman and her three children are in limbo, waiting to learn if they'll ever see their husband and father again. The family's attorney said it could be a long shot.
Ten days ago, 55-year-old Syed Jamal was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at his home in Lawrence.
"He was taking me school, and then right as we were about to back out, the ICE people, they came," said Jamal's daughter, Naheen.
His wife and three children watched as immigration officials arrested him.
"They were loading my dad into the car. They had him in handcuffs," said Taseen Jamal, Jamal's son, "That moment, it sort of felt like something was missing in my chest, and I couldn't breathe."
"I couldn't really believe what was happening because I never thought something like that would happen to our family," Naheen said. "I might not ever get to see him again."
A lawyer representing Jamal filed paperwork asking for a stay in his case.
The Park University professor is an immigrant from Bangladesh who has lived in the U.S. for more than 30 years.
"To allow someone to stay here that long and then just suddenly take it away because you're now going to decide to enforce strictly our immigration laws seems to be in opposition to humanitarian concerns," said Jeffrey Y. Bennett, a Kansas City lawyer retained by the Jamal family. "You can't let someone plant a seed here in the United States, and then pull out their roots once they've grown."
But according to ICE, Jamal overstayed his visa twice and violated an order by a judge to leave the country.
Right now, Jamal is being held in custody at the adult detention center in Versailles, Missouri.
"I just want my dad to come home safely and not have to be scared that he's going to be taken away again," Naheen said.
"He called us a few days ago, and he was crying because he is unsure of what would happen, and he's also unsure about what would happen to us if he got deported and just uncertain about how he would survive if he was taken because of his age and the conditions of his home country," Taseen said.
Jamal's attorney said it's possible that his wife could also eventually be deported. Right now, she remains in Lawrence and is taking care of the couple's three children.
Jamal's brother, Syed H. Jamal, who shares the same first and last name, said his brother's wife is devastated.
"She is uncertain about her future and the kids' future," he said. "She is definitely scared of deportation as her immigration status is directly tied to her husband's."
Meanwhile, hundreds in Lawrence started a letter writing campaign to support Syed. A Change.org online petition has garnered more than 28,000 signatures. Donations have been pouring in to a GoFundMe page set up to help the family with legal costs.

This one appeared as a guest column in the Waco Tribune-Herald newspaper of Waco, Texas. It is not about exploration, but about useful and necessary infrastructure in Earth orbit.
The last shuttle flight is complete, the orbiters are headed for museums, and thousands are being laid off at Cape Canaveral and Mission Control. There is going to be a hiatus in America's ability to launch its own astronauts that may continue for a few years.
Actually, I do believe the private companies like SpaceX will fill that void sooner rather than later. I also believe there will be a second, privately-owned, space station up there, very soon.
But, these private ventures, which build upon 50 years' expertise, will require smaller teams on the ground at the Cape and in Mission Control. Except for local employment prospects, that's a good thing, because it means spaceflight will become less expensive.
I predict that more than one commercial spacecraft will be flying soon, and that some of our familiar launch rockets will be updated and man-rated to launch them. That's what NASA's commercial spaceflight initiative was supposed to achieve, and it looks to me as if it is succeeding.
Here is what we will have: space capsules as taxis to orbit, space stations conducting research and business, and NASA looking outward beyond orbit with men for the first time in 40 years. But, something is missing from that picture!
Oh, yes, the "space repair truck" function of the space shuttle will be missing. Remember it?
It was the self-maneuvering shuttle with the adaptable human crew, that enormous cargo bay as a work area, and that manipulator arm, which repaired so many important satellites, most notably the Hubble Space Telescope.
In hindsight, having to launch that capability in every mission makes less sense than having two or three vehicles like that up there all the time. When you need one, send the crew and some thruster fuel up with one of the new space capsules: same results, far less expense.
All we need is a crew cabin, a space frame about the size of the shuttle cargo bay, that manipulator arm, some thrusters, and thruster fuel tanks.
These could be assembled in place by docking-together modules small enough to be launched by the rockets we already have. This is not a gigantic project, there is no new technology here, just a planned series of launches to regain a capability that we lost with Atlantis's final landing.
It makes sense to have one in the highly-inclined orbit near or docked to the ISS, one in the more standard orbit eastward from the cape (the kind of orbit Hubble is in), and one in polar orbit to service those satellites. This may not be exploration, but it would certainly be helpful to what we are already doing in space.
There will always be satellites needing repair, and we already have one space station to repair, maintain, and upgrade. We might even use this capability to help build the new exploration vehicles.
I recommend this idea to NASA as something worthwhile and necessary. Maybe some of those laid-off workers could be re-hired to carry it out.

Not well placed
Requires further development
Well placed
Very well placed
ERO's findings that support this overall judgement are summarised below.
Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata is located on the grounds of Henderson South Primary School. It is licensed for 50 children including no more than 10 under 2 years of age. The aoga roll is currently at half capacity.
The centre is governed by the Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata Trust Board, a registered charity. The board has been inactive in its governance role since the 2013 ERO review.
The aoga philosophy sets out to promote Samoan culture, Christian values and a commitment toTe Whāriki, the early childhood curriculum. Samoan, English and Maori languages are evident in the centre.
Despite the decreasing roll the aoga continues to support high staff ratios, employing a centre manager, four certificated teachers, three teacher assistants and a kitchen hand. Most of the staff are long serving.
Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata has had a history of two supplementary ERO reviews. The 2013 ERO review found that very good progress had been made. This review finds that these positive developments have not been sustained. The board is not meeting legal or licensing requirements. ERO has identified significant risk to the sustainability of the aoga and recommends that the Ministry of Education reassess the licence of Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata.
Children are involved in simple play activities and are respectful and compliant learners. Much of their programme is structured, teacher-directed activity. There are few opportunities for children to initiate their own play.
The environment for children under two years of age was sparsely resourced on the day of the review. Teachers should ensure that infants and toddlers are always provided with a comfortable setting that stimulates independent exploration and encourages their sense of belonging.
Teachers have not sustained professional support to help them evaluate programmes. They do not reflect on, consider and change their teaching responses. Some teachers work alongside children. Other teachers supervise children from afar and do not support children's learning well.
Teachers must implement a learning programme that is consistent with Te Whāriki, the early childhood curriculum. They should strengthen their professional practice to support and deepen children's learning through play.
The manager and teachers have not been appraised annually.
Strategic and annual management plans have been developed by the centre manager and one trustee without consultation with the board, staff and parents.
A plan for improvement at all levels of aoga operations should be developed and implemented.
Aoga governance is ineffective. Trustees are not meeting regularly to ensure that the board is meeting legal and licensing requirements.
There is no evidence of an annual general meeting being held. Several concerns including conflicts of interest regarding financial management have been identified in the 2015 financial audit.
The board requires external support to fulfil its roles and responsibilities as trustees and to proactively facilitate a shared vision for the centre's development.
More effective internal evaluation should be carried out by the board, manager and teachers to make informed decisions and identify priorities for development.
Before the review, the staff and management of Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata completed an ERO Centre Assurance Statement and Self-Audit Checklist. In these documents they attested that they have taken all reasonable steps to meet their legal obligations related to:
During the review, ERO looked at the service's systems for managing the following areas that have a potentially high impact on children's wellbeing:
emotional safety (including positive guidance and child protection)
physical safety (including supervision; sleep procedures; accidents; medication; hygiene; excursion policies and procedures)
suitable staffing (including qualification levels; police vetting; teacher registration; ratios)
evacuation procedures and practices for fire and earthquake.
All early childhood services are required to promote children's health and safety and to regularly review their compliance with legal requirements
ERO found significant areas of non-compliance in the service related to:
effective governance and management in accordance with good management practices
self-review and planning to guide the centre's operations
adults' understanding of children's learning and development
planning, implementing and evaluating a curriculum that is designed to enhance children's learning and development through the provision of learning experiences and that are consistent with Te Whariki, the early childhood curriculum framework.
Licensing Criteria for Early Childhood Education and Care Centres 2008, GMA3, GMA4, GMA6, GMA7, C1, C7.
ERO recommends that the Ministry reassess the licence of Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata. ERO will not undertake a further education review of this service until the Ministry of Education is satisfied that the service meets licensing requirements.
The next ERO review of Taulapapa Leata Su'a Aoga Amata will be in consultation with the Ministry of Education.

The Education Review Office (ERO) is the government department that, as part of its work, reviews early childhood services throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. ERO's reports provide information for parents and communities about each service's strengths and next steps for development. ERO's bicultural evaluation framework Ngā Pou Here is described in SECTION 3 of this report. Early childhood services are partners in the review process and are expected to make use of the review findings to enhance children's wellbeing and learning.

ERO's overarching question for an early childhood education review is 'How well placed is this service to promote positive learning outcomes for children?' ERO focuses on the following factors as described in the bicultural framework Ngā Pou Here:
Pou Whakahaere – how the service determines its vision, philosophy and direction to ensure positive outcomes for children
Pou Ārahi – how leadership is enacted to enhance positive outcomes for children
Mātauranga – whose knowledge is valued and how the curriculum is designed to achieve positive outcomes for children
Tikanga whakaako – how approaches to teaching and learning respond to diversity and support positive outcomes for children.
Within these areas ERO considers the effectiveness of arotake – self review and of whanaungatanga – partnerships with parents and whānau.
ERO evaluates how well placed a service is to sustain good practice and make ongoing improvements for the benefit of all children at the service.
A focus for the government is that all children, especially priority learners, have an opportunity to benefit from quality early childhood education. ERO will report on how well each service promotes positive outcomes for all children, with a focus on children who are Māori, Pacific, have diverse needs, and are up to the age of two.
For more information about the framework and Ngā Pou Here refer to ERO's Approach to Review in Early Childhood Services.
The overall judgement that ERO makes and the timing of the next review will depend on how well placed a service is to promote positive learning outcomes for children. The categories are:
ERO has developed criteria for each category. These are available on ERO's website.
ERO reviews are tailored to each service's context and performance, within the overarching review framework. The aim is to provide information on aspects that are central to positive outcomes for children and useful to the service.

The following Book Review is a Reprint from The Book Reviewer (www.thebookreviewer.ca). Mississippi in Africa is an important work creating enlightenment of the history and present day Black America.
"freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose,
and nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free"
Me and Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin/Kris Kristofferson/Fred Foster plays quietly as the ghosts of Old Mississippi are celebrated in this fantastical tome, Mississippi in Africa by Alan Huffman, narrated by Andrew L. Barnes. An epic masterwork of journalism that explores the truth of African American history and emancipation, follows a freed slave colony in Liberia, creating enlightenment from the darkness of political/emotional conflict and violence. Because of varying accounts, the official records "not always infallible, but they were crucial to the telling of this story" (noting a certain inertia of mouldering records in boxes and surreptitious record pilfering in the name of preservation at the Jackson County Archives and the nonexistent records in Monrovia, Liberia due to the Archives being razed by war) and the conflicting oral histories from descendants, the author has a difficult task, to which he does justice.
The beautiful intonations of Andrew L. Barnes spin the story of African Americans as he brings history alive in audiobook through the reading of Mississippi in Africa by Alan Huffman. Alan Huffman is a noted journalist and author from Mississippi who has been published in The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Smithsonian, Newsweek, Washington Post Magazine amongst others and written 5 books, Ten Point, Sultana, We're with Nobody, Here I am: The Story of Tim Hetherington, War Photographer and Mississippi in Africa. This book is a natural for audiobook, as it is a first person narrative that tells the story of the research, personal accounts and Archives records presenting the African American experience in the United States since the Civil War and particularly the story of the emancipation of people at Prospect Hill, Mississippi and the repatriation of most Prospect Hill slaves, to Liberia. The narrator, Andrew L. Barnes is a multitalented performance artist with a deep bass-baritone voice that brings the story to life, I listen to the audiotape as if sitting by the fireside in the long night listening to the rich weave of historical accounts and the living history as told by the descendants of Mississippi plantation owner Isaac Ross. Mississippi in Africa begins with the story of the author, a friend of Gwen, a descendant of the Ross family who gives him the old run down manse Holly Grove, one of the Ross family homes, provided he move it to his own property and restore it. Holly Grove, was an old abandoned manse the author and his friends would camp out in when they were children, with the telling of midnight stories of Prospect Hill, how Isaac Ross freed his slaves in his will, how his grandson, Isaac Ross Wade tied up the will in litigation for 10 years, how one night in April, the coffee was spiked and the fire set, killing a child, and the hanging of 11 or 12 of the African American people and the freedom of the remaining slaves, most to a colony in Liberia. The only furnishings that survived from the Prospect Hill fire was the old ebony and rosewood grand piano and some portrait paintings (this writer can just imagine how the talk of freedom and going to Africa whilst camping out in the old mausoleum, fired the imagination of the author as a child). Eventually, Gwen gave the old grand piano to Author Huffman, who late in the night, would hear it mysteriously play as if haunted by the ghosts of Prospect Hill. Author Huffman presents the history of Isaac Ross, a plantation owner in the early 1800's, the intrigue of his will that set his slaves free and gave them the option of settling in Liberia. Ross was noted for treating his slaves well, most could read and write, they were not beaten and the families were kept together, the slaves never sold, yet "for the people in the field, it was someone else's cotton." The Ross family had met with tragedy and a number of adult members of the family dying from yellow fever including his wife. When Isaac Ross died in 1836, the will was contested by his grandson Isaac Ross Wade who attempted to keep the estate and the slaves, tying up the fates of the slaves in litigation for ten years. Wade had "no intention of stopping until he won or ran out of options." The slaves were in a quandary and became restive "if the highest court said they were free", why weren't they? Talk in the community suggested that when Isaac Ross Wade was dead, they would be free. On April 15th, 1845 at 1:00 a.m. a fire broke out at Prospect Hill, the coffee of the Wade family was laced with a sleeping medicant that night by the cook Gracie Ross or perhaps one of the slaves in the kitchen. Thomas Wade had not had the coffee that night and he woke to find the front door jammed, when he opened the door, the slave Esah stood there with an axe but did not bother to help him. The child, Martha Richardson, Wade's niece died in the fire. Everyone else escaped yet the vast majority of the finery and furnishings were lost. In the next few days, eleven or twelve of the slave "leaders" were hanged. Disturbingly, there is "not even a footnote in the official written record", in the Mississippi Historical Society or other Archive material of the fire on Prospect Hill or the murders. When researching the oral history "the prevailing white version of the story of Prospect Hill always includes the slave uprising but the prevailing black version never does." The history itself is an emotional powderkeg, "you know it was bad, no matter what gloss you put on it, it was a bad thing."
Some of the African Americans at Prospect Hill were spirited away by the American colonization society to Liberia. After the fire the will was probated in 1849, "200 of the 225 slaves had been given their freedom and had emigrated to Mississippi in Africa" later to be "joined by 200 slaves freed by other sympathetic Ross family members." When the freed slaves arrived in Liberia, they were met with violence from the indigenous peoples and the new colony was enmeshed in difficulties. Historian Mary Jo Sullivan notes, "It's small size, lack of communication with other settlements, little support from the American colonization society and the Mississippi Society, lack of knowledge of the human and physical environment, and sporadic hostility from African neighbours hampered progress." The colony thrived for a time, the freed slaves taking in less fortunate indigenous families and J.J. Ross establishing a public school in Monrovia. However, the modern day politics of Liberia has proved unstable and violent, manifesting civil war with prejudice and violence against descendants of the American freed slaves. In December 1999, the Association of Liberian Journalists in the Americas called for a tribunal from the United Nations to investigate war crimes. Opposition leader Samuel Dokie, his family and security people were assassinated; a Monrovia church with hundreds of people inside were murdered; dissidents have disappeared as well as ordinary people in the street, feared murdered; journalists had been harassed by the Charles Taylor regime. Although the Archives in Monrovia was razed, Author Huffman does find and talk to some descendants of the Ross family freed slaves. Benjamin Ross, tells how most of the homes in the community have been razed, "only the vaults in the cemetery, they don't bother," he says. "There is nothing left, really. Just vast land. Nothing." Author Huffman and Benjamin Ross share an ironic moment, as they realize, "his ancestors risked their lives to emigrate from America to Liberia, and now he is struggling to get back."
In Mississippi in Africa, the tumultuous history of the Ross family and their African American slaves creates a living genealogy, is the history of the geography, the social structure, the politics, the economics of Mississippi and the Deep South. "Money transformed a remote wilderness into a region of wealthy fiefdoms anchored by Greek Revival, Federal and Italianate mansions filled with imported furnishings the most elaborate of which were surrounded by landscape gardens sometimes stepping down towards the rivers on terraces while just out of sight were the rude dwellings of the slave quarters with dirt yards." In the background, the story of the Civil War weaving the history of black emancipation into the present day, the family stories of the oral history of the Ross and black descendants and the history of black and white race relations in the United States. After the Civil War, "for the next 150 years the population and taxbase spiraled downward taking with it much of the infrastructure that had supported the one crop economy; railroads, farms, ports, ferries, bridges, roads and countless communities and more than a few towns since nothing came along to take cottons place as an economic engine the county founded."
When interviewing Dolores Ross, she is of mixed race, a descendant of Isaac Ross, questioned about her understanding of the Ross will and the events of the black uprising, Ms. Ross says "One thing it ain't is black and white." There are photographs of her family and everyone is of different degrees of colour. Huffman notes "There are many people of mixed race in this part of the country but they are usually the results of clandestine encounters. Racial mixing is rarely documented for posterity articulated by permanent white families like the Ross'. The average Mississippian would not know what to make of the picture … because Butch and Delores are clearly abused they are aware that such intermingling does not sit well with everyone and is rarely mentioned in most portrayals of the Ross family. This is the Deep South after all known world wide for its troubled racial politics." "If a person grows up in a black family, they tend to think of themselves as black, regardless of the shade of their skin" and similarly in white mixed race families. The struggle for consciousness by the larger white society is mirrored in the varying terms used to describe mixed race peoples throughout history in the United States census record. Beginning in 1870 with 3 designations, black, white and colored, introducing the term mulatto in 1880, specifying terms such as quadroon and octoroon in 1890, reintroducing the term mulatto in 1920, specifying anyone of a black bloodline as black in 1930 and finally, to the designations of black and white and other racial categories with the option to choose more than one in 2000, showing in the last case that racial designation has lost importance in the present-day United States.
Mississippi in Africa is rich with details and stories, well researched, weaving the personal accounts with archival records creating a sweeping panorama of emancipation, and the history and violence of the African American experience in Southern United States juxtaposed with wartorn Liberia. Throughout the work it is good to note the positive, the benevolence of Isaac Ross freeing his slaves, monies sent by Isaac Ross Wade to the Liberian Community, how the Mississippi in Africa community attempted to help the local indigenous peoples, how Nathan Ross emigrated from Liberia to the United States in the 1980's has a successful business and sends monies to his struggling relatives in Africa and the story of the author, who in return for the gift of the Holly Grove manse researches and writes this detailed history of Gwen's family. This book is an important presentation of history and African American race relations in the United States and Liberia, making history come alive, not unlike the great non-fiction works of Canadian history written by Pierre Berton.
This enlightened truthtelling is a must read, giving roots to black America, Mississippi in Africa by Alan Huffman/narrated by Andrew L. Barnes.

There are not many things that instantly define 'traditional' Britain than the children's favourite 'Punch And Judy' puppet show, which would often be seen at the seaside and at children's parties up and down the British Isles.
Perhaps more of a rarity these days, Paul reminds us this was an enjoyable, zany and fun memory for many of our childhoods: watching the Mr Punch puppet and his slapstick behaviour and clowning around - not forgetting other favourites such as Judy (Mrs Punch) and the crocodile!
I love the eye pleasing red and white stripes of the booth, itself almost like a 'stick of rock' sweet (another seaside favourite), leading up to the red booth, curtains and gold regal embellishing. The multi coloured bunting, the beach towel and the windbreaker really set the peace off as a brightly painted, uplifting limited edition. - full of both joy and rainbow colours!
Did you notice favourite elements of Paul's work are also here? including the two sail boats on the boating lake to the left, the fluffy clouds and the rowing boar, sitting quietly on the right above the windbreaker.
A look at a traditional British Punch and Judy show.
Children enjoying a day at the seaside and watching a Punch and Judy show
This the marvellous pencil sketch drawing that Paul would base his full colour painting (also called 'Thats The Way To Do It') on. The Artist will often create sketches first, forming all the elements and putting on paper with pencil, what he then intends to paint!
Paul was so pleased with how this Punch & Judy themed drawing turned out, he decided to turn his attention to a full colour original; finally, that painting was then used to produce the limited edition print which has proved immensely popular with the public this summer.
There is something so quintessentially British about Punch & Judy and the British love of the Seaside holiday, with deck chairs, ice-cream and a hanky over Grandad's head essential!

Capital FM DJ Roman Kemp has unveiled the results of a fitness regime by sharing pictures of his toned abs on Instagram,
Kemp, who is the son of Spandau Ballet singer and actor Martin Kemp, informed his friends and followers on his social media account that he had undergone a 12 week programme with personal trainer Bradley Simmonds.
Posting a series of pictures of what he looked like before he began training and after the programme came to an end, Kemp added the caption: "Not one for posting a photo like this but I wanted to say a huge thank you to @bradleysimmonds for convincing me to do his #12weektransformation best training I've ever had and provided me with the results I wanted. Thank you mate x."

Shortly after he published the post, the radio DJ received praise from his fans and famous friends including Vicky Pattison and Professor Green.
Love Island star Kem Cetinay also expressed how impressed he was when he posted: "Yes this is sick! Well done bro."
"YES MATE," came the response from Joel Dommett.
Marvin Humes commented: "Smashed it bro."
Whilst Kemp showed the results of Simmonds' 12 week transformation, the personal trainer revealed how he achieved Kemp's ripped physique.
Sharing the same picture of Kemp on his own Instagram page, Simmonds explained: "12 weeks of pure dedication has got Roman looking and feeling unreal.
"Being a vegan it was a test for me to get his nutrition spot on ensuring he was consuming enough protein to ensure he was developing muscle whilst shredding the body fat% to build a strong lean physique. But we managed and we had Roman eating good plates of food."

The personal trainer went on to add: "How did we do it? 4/5 sessions a week focusing on HYPERTROPHY strength finishing each session building his engine (HIIT) with solid nutrition to follow."
Explaining that Kemp stuck to his training schedule despite his hectic schedule, Simmonds went on to reveal that Kemp's body fat decreased from 25% to 9.5%."The picture on the right speaks for itself. Now all he has to do is maintain his results which he will easily do with the knowledge he's sponged over the last 12 weeks," he added.

Tequila Orange :
Goodmorning beautiful people. What a great start to a Sunday morning, with a cup of coffee and endless laziness. I am going to continue the subject of luck that I began in the previous post. I have come to the conclusion that there is bad and good luck that is not controllable. I do not know what factors contribute to the subject of luck making it good or bad, however, luck it does exist for me.
Back to the shoot, this shoot was a while back when I first discovered Calzedonia costumes. Calzedonia is one of my favorite swimwear brands and in this particular piece, I loved the neon orange color. Coming from an island, being at the beach is essential.That means being there every day which makes the same swimwear boring.Small accessories can add some extra spice such as caps, sunglasses, wrist bands, ankle bands and in general small things that make a big difference. The shoot was in beautiful Cyprus.
Remember keep positive and keep on smiling,

The virus that causes most warts to develop is known as the human papillomavirus (HPV). This includes plantar warts, which grow into the heel of the foot as a result of constant pressure the foot endures from walking and standing. This type of virus generally enters the body through tiny cracks in the skin and is known to thrive in warm and moist places, which may include public pools, locker rooms, and surrounding areas. Plantar warts appear as a small and thickened area on the heel or sole of the foot and may have small blood vessels in the center, which appear as miniscule black dots. Small warts of this nature will generally produce minimal discomfort and will typically diminish on its own. If there are many warts, which may span a large portion of the sole of the foot, the pain and discomfort may be more severe. If you are afflicted with plantar warts, it is advised to consult with a podiatrist who can provide knowledge about correct treatment options.
Plantar warts can be very uncomfortable. If you need your feet checked, contact Dr. Alan J. Spector from Shore Podiatry. Our doctor will assist you with all of your foot and ankle needs.
About Plantar Warts
Plantar warts are the result of HPV, or human papillomavirus, getting into open wounds on the feet. They are mostly found on the heels or balls of the feet.
While plantar warts are generally harmless, those experiencing excessive pain or those suffering from diabetes or a compromised immune system require immediate medical care. Plantar warts are easily diagnosed, usually through scraping off a bit of rough skin or by getting a biopsy.
To help prevent developing plantar warts, avoid walking barefoot over abrasive surfaces that can cause cuts or wounds for HPV to get into. Avoiding direct contact with other warts, as well as not picking or rubbing existing warts, can help prevent the further spread of plantar warts. However, if you think you have developed plantar warts, speak to your podiatrist. He or she can diagnose the warts on your feet and recommend the appropriate treatment options.

The importance of keeping your child's feet healthy is crucial in possibly preventing potential foot problems later in life. There are simple tasks that can be accomplished daily that will promote healthy feet and may positively affect the overall health of the body. These may include washing and drying the feet daily, which may aid in avoiding athlete's foot from developing, in additional to choosing comfortable socks and shoes to wear. Research has shown that if shoes, which are worn have become too tight, bunions may develop if there is a pre-existing case present. This is known to be a painful condition in which a hard, bony growth develops on the side of the big toe and will typically make it necessary to wear larger size shoes that can accommodate the bunion. If you would like additional information about how to keep your child's feet healthy, it is recommended that you speak to a podiatrist who can provide the proper answers to your questions.
The health of a child's feet is vital to their overall well-being. If you have any questions regarding foot health, contact Dr. Alan J. Spector of Shore Podiatry. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.

One of the main reasons blisters on the feet may develop is from friction that may typically come from wearing shoes and socks that are too tight. They appear as a small area filled with fluid, which is a natural protectant of the skin, and will commonly develop as a result of an injury or infection that has occurred. When a blister develops on the foot, pain and discomfort will generally accompany this ailment and can possibly be treated by placing a cover over it while wearing shoes. There may be several additional reasons why blisters may form on the feet. These may include being exposed to freezing temperatures, which may cause frostbite, or the opposite may be true when the skin endures an extreme sunburn. If you have an allergic reaction to an insect bite or to a specific chemical, unsightly blisters may form to protect the skin as the healing process occurs. If you are experiencing blisters on the feet, it is suggested to speak with a podiatrist for information about treatment options.
Blisters are prone to making everyday activities extremely uncomfortable. If your feet are hurting, contact Dr. Alan J. Spector of Shore Podiatry. Our doctor can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
Foot Blisters
Foot blisters develop as a result of constantly wearing tight or ill-fitting footwear. This happens due to the constant rubbing from the shoe, which can often lead to pain.
What Are Foot Blisters?
A foot blister is a small fluid-filled pocket that forms on the upper-most layer of the skin. Blisters are filled with clear fluid and can lead to blood drainage or pus if the area becomes infected.
How Do Blisters Form?
Blisters on the feet are often the result of constant friction of skin and material, usually by shoe rubbing. Walking in sandals, boots, or shoes that don't fit properly for long periods of time can result in a blister. Having consistent foot moisture and humidity can easily lead to blister formation.
Prevention & Treatment
It is important to properly care for the affected area in order to prevent infection and ease the pain. Do not lance the blister and use a Band-Aid to provide pain relief. Also, be sure to keep your feet dry and wear proper fitting shoes. If you see blood or pus in a blister, seek assistance from a podiatrist.

Morton's neuroma is the medical term described as an uncomfortable foot condition that is typically located on the bottom of the foot under the third and fourth toes. If the nerve that lies there becomes irritated and swollen, you may experience symptoms that include a tingling or burning sensation, or pain inside the ball of the foot. These symptoms may develop over time and this may depend on what type of shoes are worn or the activities that are performed. Common causes for this condition to develop may come from shoes that do not have adequate room for the toes to move about in, or shoes that exert excess pressure on the ball of the foot. It's suggested to consult with a podiatrist if you feel you have developed this ailment to discuss proper treatment options.
Morton's neuroma is a very uncomfortable condition to live with. If you think you have Morton's neuroma, contact Dr. Alan J. Spector of Shore Podiatry. Our doctor will attend to all of your foot and ankle needs and answer any of your related questions.
Morton's Neuroma
Morton's neuroma is a painful foot condition that commonly affects the areas between the second and third or third and fourth toe, although other areas of the foot are also susceptible. Morton's neuroma is caused by an inflamed nerve in the foot that is being squeezed and aggravated by surrounding bones.
What Increases the Chances of Having Morton's Neuroma?
Morton's neuroma is a very treatable condition. Orthotics and shoe inserts can often be used to alleviate the pain on the forefront of the feet. In more severe cases, corticosteroids can also be prescribed. In order to figure out the best treatment for your neuroma, it's recommended to seek the care of a podiatrist who can diagnose your condition and provide different treatment options.

(Released May 1977 – Highest chart placing #20
What is it about the first album by any band ? This in my opinion is still the best of the jam. Any bands first album gives you an open door to the heart and soul of a band. After which they often struggle with the second album which is often a disappointment. This is simply great. Paul Weller spits out the vocals you can here the anger in his voice. Paul Weller has succeeded with a solo career neither of the other two really did much after this band split. I believe Bruce Foxton played with Stiff Little Fingers for a while and I am not sure what happened to the drummer Rick Buckler.
This album has a Motown feel and you could easily see the band were great fans of The Who from the early Mod era – MY generation. In the late seventies early eighties there was a re-emergence of the scooter and the mod and battles with greasers/rockers down at seasides such as Brighton/ Margate and Clacton. About the time of 70's disco fever The Who released Quadrephenia and there was a different world for those kids who didn't have an interest in the Bee gees and Saturday Night fever.
It was difficult to like bands like the jam back in the early 70's when 95 % of people liked disco. I bought In the City the first single by the jam in about 77 , they made great singles and had a lot of success in the early eighties.
This is a great album you can pick up for just a fiver

Homeopathic Remedies For Chicken Pox
Chicken pox is a common childhood viral illness. Many cases are mild; however, those that are uncomfortable can often be helped with homeopathy. Fatigue and low fever typically begin ten days to three weeks from the time of exposure. A flat red rash comes out, transforms into pimples, then develops into blisters that eventually break and harden into itchy crusts. If fever is very high and persistent, or if a person seems to be extremely ill, it is best to consult a physician.
Antimonium tartaricum: This remedy may be indicated when eruptions are large and slow to emerge. The child feels sweaty, fussy, and may be nauseous with a white-coated tongue. If chest congestion with a rattling cough develops, or a bubbly sound on breathing, Antimonium tart is likely to be the appropriate remedy.
Antimonium crudum: A child who needs this remedy usually is irritable and may object to being touched or looked at. The eruptions are sore, and touching them may bring on shooting pains.
Apis mellifica: When this remedy is indicated, the skin around the eruptions is pink and puffy and very itchy, with stinging pains. The eyelids may also be swollen. The person feels worse from warmth, is irritable, and usually is not thirsty.
Belladonna: This remedy is indicated when a child is hot and feverish, with a red flushed face, and eyes that are sensitive to light. A pounding headache may be felt, accompanied by either restlessness or drowsiness. The rash usually is red, with a feeling of heat and throbbing.
Bryonia: When fever persists for several days during chicken pox, and a dry nagging cough develops, this remedy may be useful. The person's mouth is dry, with thirst for long cold drinks. The person may be very grumpy, feel worse from motion, and dislike being interfered with in any way.
Mercurius solubilis: This remedy may be indicated if eruptions are large and become infected. The child is very sensitive to temperature changes and feels worse at night. Perspiration and drooling during sleep, swollen lymph nodes, and offensive breath are strong indications for Mercurius.
Pulsatilla: A child who needs this remedy is often sweet and tearful when ill and wants a lot of attention and comforting. Itching and other discomforts are worse from warmth and in stuffy rooms, and improved by cool fresh air. The person is rarely thirsty, even during fever.
Rhus toxicodendron: This remedy is useful in cases of chicken pox with tremendous itching that is worse from scratching and relieved by warm baths or applying heat. The child may be very restless, both physically and mentally. The eyes may become inflamed and sticky. Muscles can ache and feel very stiff, also relieved by warmth and gentle motion. (Some homeopathic physicians recommend Rhus tox to people who have been exposed to chicken pox, to help prevent infection.)
Sulphur: If itching is so severe that the person finds it impossible to keep from scratching—or if eruptions have a nagging, burning pain—this remedy may bring relief. The symptoms (and the person) become worse from warmth and aggravated after bathing. Both heat and chills are felt during fever. The person may feel drowsy in the afternoon and restless and hot at night.

Neonatal care: pregnancy and preterm birth
A preterm baby is one born before 37 weeks' gestation. Women who have delivered prematurely in the past are at an increased risk of preterm delivery, as are smokers and those with a low body mass index
The length of a normal pregnancy is around 40 weeks. Babies born before 37 weeks are classified as preterm. An infant born at or after 25 weeks will be transferred to a neonatal unit for supportive care. Whether or not aggressive measures will be taken to support infants born between the beginning of the 23rd week and the end of the 24th week will be based on assessments undertaken at birth.
The causes of preterm birth include infection, inflammation, multiple pregnancy, placental abruption and hormonal disruptions. Preterm birth may be prevented or delayed using pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies. There is compelling evidence to support the use of antenatal corticosteroids to reduce the complications of premature birth.
Nicola Vasey is lead clinical pharmacist for women's and children's services and Robert Tinnion is a research fellow in neonatal medicine, both at Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

Agencies, Russia welcomes the formation of Palestinian state government, the Russian Foreign Ministry stated on Tuesday.
"The formation of a united technocratic government in Palestine resulted from strong efforts that the leadership of Fatah, Hamas, other Palestinian movements and organizations had been taking recently in a striving to overcome internal disagreements," the ministry said.
In the meanwhile, India welcomed formation of a new unity Palestinian government and hoped that it would be able to resume talks with Israel in a pragmatic and constructive spirit to find a mutually acceptable political solution to the decades-old issue.
Whilst China welcomed the new Palestinian unity government which was sworn in on Monday in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
"We believe Palestine's internal reconciliation will strengthen the solidarity of the Palestinian people, and promote the founding of an independent state for Palestinians and peaceful coexistence between Palestine and Israel," said Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei.
On June 2, President of the State of Palestine and Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization Executive Committee Mahmoud Abbas swore in a government of national unity headed by Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah. The new Palestinian Cabinet consists of 16 ministers who represent the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. All ministers have a politically neutral position.

Irish Timeswriters review a selection of events
Ensemble Scratch the Surface
Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin
Scratch the Surface is a contemporary music ensemble founded in 2006. The programming for its recent Music Network tour was based on the premise that the old boundaries which once designated sounds as either musical or non-musical no longer exist.
It's a concept that generally remains newer to audiences than it does to composers, who were already dabbling with it early in the last century. The audience at this concert was engaged by it, even by the most extreme example, Claudia Kappenberg's Upon the Place Beneath. Six movement artists stood gracefully moving their arms, silently at first, until they began to release beads from their hands which poured down on to various resonant objects and created a random interplay of sounds. Everyone seemed gripped - it looked beautiful, sounded interesting, we wondered what it might mean.
The other works in the programme were closer to the familiar orthodoxy in that they required musical instruments. The full ensemble of clarinet, violin, viola, double bass and percussion played thoughtful pieces by Linda Buckley - her Nikuda (Nowhere)opens and closes with a busy, funky pulse that goes into hiding but remains implicit when the scoring pares down to a single voice - and by Claudia Molitor, whose Between the Markstakes something lyrical and distorts and reshapes it, mirroring what happens after a painter's first brushstroke on a new canvas.
In Jean Martin's Viola Pulse, what once were agreed to be non-musical sounds (for example, rubs and scratches) were created on viola, recorded and electronically manipulated to form one half (on tape) of a duo, the other half being the viola soloist, ensemble director Conall Gleeson, playing live. Not a new idea, but intriguingly conceived and executed here. Also combining tape and live instruments was Donnacha Dennehy's Glamour Sleeper, in its urban accent growing to a great wall of industrial sound.
For sheer entertainment the concert's best piece was Roderik de Man's four-minute Case History, a sparkling solo for energetic percussionist Joel Farland, who rapped, tapped and shouted through a piece played entirely on his aluminium mallet case. - MICHAEL DUNGAN
NCH, Dublin
In Dublin, and perhaps elsewhere, nobody produces the Gilbert and Sullivan canon as splendidly as the Rathmines and Rathgar Musical Society. A sweeping endorsement, of course, but the evidence is to hand in the version of Iolanthe now gracing the NCH stage. It is altogether delicious.
The potty plot soon turns into a satire on the British House of Lords, overlapped with an amusing foray into the battle of the sexes. Iolanthe (Rachel Kelly) was banished 25 years ago for marrying a mortal, and has an understandably mixed-up son Strephon (John-Owen Miley-Read, a special bass). He yearns for a mortal too, but his Phyllis (Sarah Guilmartin) is admired and courted by numerous peers. She sees him in Iolanthe's arms and jumps to a wrong conclusion, since fairies don't age.
It's all a merry mess, sustained by the liveliest of musical scores and a clever script. The action is studded with melodies and comic set-pieces tumbling over each other.
Phyllis and Strephon sing of their love in None Shall Part Us From Each Other, and the Fairy Queen (Jackie Curran-Olohan) makes an early appearance, signalling a weakness for romance. Later she ups the ante when Private Willis (Benjamin Russell), a palace sentry, comes on to be told, in low tones of undisguised lust, "You are a very fine fellow".
The Lord Chancellor (Adam Lawlor) steals the show more than once, in the number When I Went to the Barand others. He joins the two pixillated peers Lords Tolloller and Mountararat (Brian Gilligan and Michael Clark) in the hilarious If You Go In You're Sure To Win, and is given a solo spot for curtain applause. But the entire cast deserve their ovations, served up in unstinted measure. - GERRY COLGAN

Body contouring recently has become popular — likely because the procedure is noninvasive, and patients have reported effectiveness, as well as minimal discomfort and recovery time. Dr. Kanayochukwu Anya in Fort Worth, Texas, offers state-of-the-art body contouring treatments using the latest technologies available. To learn more, call Anya Bariatrics and Aesthetics or book an appointment online.
Body contouring refers to treatments that reduce fat without cutting into the skin. They are an alternative to liposuction for patients who are unwilling or unable to undergo a surgical procedure.
While the results of body contouring treatments are less dramatic than the results of liposuction, body contouring treatments are a good fit for people who are close to their ideal weight but have those stubborn trouble spots that won't go away despite a good diet and exercise.
Body contouring treatments use different types of technologies to destroy or shrink the extra fat cells below the surface of the skin. Energy sources such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, and infrared light create the temperatures needed to destroy the unwanted cells.
Dr. Anya uses SculpSure®, a safe and effective laser treatment that heats up your fat cells while simultaneously cooling your skin. The laser is at the perfect temperature — just hot enough to kill the fat cells while leaving your other tissues unharmed.
Dr. Anya places applicators on the areas you want to target. These applicators go back and forth between a cooling effect and heat from the laser, so you may feel these changes in temperature. You also may experience a stinging sensation or mild cramping, but Dr. Anya can adjust the temperature at any time. The SculpSure procedure usually lasts around 25 minutes, during which you can read, relax, or even take a nap.
Patients have reported seeing results in as little as six weeks, but in general, best results usually are seen in about 12 weeks. If you need additional treatment, you can schedule another SculpSure session after 6-12 weeks.
*Individual results may vary
At Anya Bariatrics Aesthetics we specialize in All Skin Types. Our State of the Art Equipment and techniques allow us to work on All Skin Types and we pride ourselves in offering every service to even darker skin tones.
Non-Invasive Body Contouring with No Downtime in as little as 25 minutes. We can treat multiple areas at one time. This procedure uses light based energy which destroys fat cells permanently. In weeks following treatment, the body naturally eliminates the fat cells.
Body contouring might be a good fit for you if you're relatively healthy but can't get rid of stubborn trouble spots such as:
Also, as with other fat reduction treatments, the results of SculpSure won't last if you don't maintain a healthy lifestyle afterward. So keep in mind that you need to continue to eat well and exercise regularly.
Body contouring is a personal choice, and Dr. Anya can answer all of your questions and help you weigh the pros and cons. Call the office or book a consultation online today to get started.

Welfare in Transition: Trends in Poverty and Well-being in Central Asia
Jane Falkingham
February 1999
Paper No' CASE 020:
Full Paper
This paper examines the impact of the transition on living standards and welfare in the five Republics of former Soviet Central Asia: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, along with the Republic of Azerbaijan. A broad definition of welfare is taken, including both economic measures and capability-based indicators, reflecting the health and education of the population. The picture that emerges is of a regional population facing severe economic, physical and psycho-social stress. Over half the population is now living in poverty. Real wages have fallen, joblessness has increased, school enrolment has dropped and general health has deteriorated. However, despite this gloomy picture, households are also proving to be remarkably resilient to the dramatic drop in living standards most have experienced. Nevertheless, strategies for alleviating poverty and encouraging regeneration that increase employment opportunities, improve the social safety net, and protect the region's human capital are urgently required.

How to Become a Teacher in the United Kingdom
The Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA) oversees teacher certification in the United Kingdom. Teachers in the United Kingdom must hold both at least a bachelors degree, and must have Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). In order to achieve QTS, prospective teachers must complete Initial Teacher Training (ITT) specific to the age group they wish to teach. Prospective secondary school teachers must complete ITT specific to the subject they wish to teach. TDA offers a variety of ways to become a teacher, including bachelor's degrees in education, postgraduate certificates in education, postgraduate degrees in education, school-centered initial teacher training, overseas teaching programs, registered teacher programs, and assessment-based training for prospective teachers with in-depth knowledge or experience in a particular subject.

Education in the United Kingdom is governed primarily by the National Curriculum, which was introduced in 1992, and is followed in all public schools for students ages 5-16. Over 90% of school-aged children attend public schools. The National Curriculum is divided into four Key Stages; the first two correspond with primary education, and second two control the curriculum for secondary education. The National Curriculum includes instruction in English, mathematics, science, design and technology, information and communication technology, history, geography, modern foreign languages, music, art and design, physical education, religious education, and citizenship.
Preschool in the UK
The government of the United Kingdom provides 15 hours of free nursery education for 38 weeks each year for all 3- and 4-year-olds. Early education is organized locally by accredited early education providers. Early education may be provided by public or private preschools, nurseries, or child care centers, and must follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements, which emphasizing learning through play.
Primary Education in the UK
Primary school is compulsory in the United Kingdom, and is divided into key stages 1 (ages 5-7, grades 1-2) and 2 (ages 7-11, grades 3-6). The National Curriculum requires that students in primary school be taught art and design, design and technology, English, geography, history, information and communication technology, mathematics, music, physical education, religious education, and science. For each subject, an official Programme of Study dictates the curriculum. The United Kingdom's new approach to assessing students, Assessing Pupils' Progress (APP), provides assessment guidelines for different subjects and age levels.
Secondary Education in the UK
Secondary school is compulsory in the United Kingdom, and is divided into key stages 3 (ages 11-14, grades 7-9) and 4 (ages 14-16, grades 10-11). In addition to the subjects covered in primary school National Curriculum requires that secondary schools provide instruction in citizenship, modern foreign languages, and information and communication technologies. For each subject, an official Programme of Study dictates the curriculum. The United Kingdom's new approach to assessing students, Assessing Pupils' Progress (APP), provides assessment guidelines for different subjects and age levels. During key stage 4, students take General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) examinations. GSCE's are in single subjects, and so students generally take up to 10 of the tests. Students may also take A Level examinations, which denote advanced standing and mastery of material beyond what is required for the GSCE's.
Higher Education in the UK
Roughly ⅓ of the students who complete secondary education in the United Kingdom immediately go on to higher education. Universities in England generally offer 3-year bachelor degree programs, year-long masters degree programs, and 3-year doctoral programs, while vocational schools offer 2-year foundation degree programs. The government of the United Kingdom provides substantial funding for institutions of higher education, which generally charge much lower tuition rates than their American counterparts do.

"Are You Willing?"
Happy Octave Day of the Nativity of the Lord! Happy Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God! Happy World Day of Peace!… and…Happy New Year! Yes…there is certainly a lot for us to be "Happy" about. Yet…that is not to deny the fact, that we certainly do live in troubled times. Our world seeks joy and yet it is profoundly sad. Our world seeks peace and yet violence and disorder abound. Our world seeks love and the happiness that it accords…yet it succumbs to the allure of the evil one; the deceitful allure that we will find happiness in all those things that are actually rejections of God (Who is Love), and that actually oppose the clear and simple guidelines He has given to attain and retain happiness. Despite the challenges and trials that our world will relentlessly put before us, we can… and should… be happy. Crosses are a part of everyone's life, or should be, as we hear several times in the Bible, the explanation given by Jesus…that "Whoever wishes to come after me, must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me (Mt 16:24, Mk 8:34, Lk 9:23).
As I write this column…(actually three days prior to Christmas Day, in order to meet the J.S. Paluch bulletin publisher's deadline), I am projecting myself through these final very busy preparatory days that precede Christmas. I am leaping right through the Christmas festivities, and…hopefully…also through the accompanying joy of the actual celebration of His First Coming. And here we are…January 1, 2017. We have all been here before, and (again, hopefully) have been positively impacted by our annual "return to normal". Let us all return with strong desires to improve our stewardship spirituality; our way of living our faith and benefitting from the real happiness that emanates from such a life. Will this be the best year yet for embracing our resolutions and our designs to make our "new year"… better in every way possible, especially from a spiritual perspective? I pray that it will be, for all of us.
Let's reflect for just a moment. How many of us are prepared to positively respond to His salvific invitation to take up our cross? Are we now ready to "Come follow Jesus", if it meant the loss of friends, family, reputation, career, and possibly even our life? Such a call is what Jesus meant when He said, "Take up your cross and follow Me." His invitation very basically and succinctly meant "a call to die to self', to stop putting the genuine needs of others in our lives… behind our own worldly self-interests. If you wonder whether you are ready to take up your cross, consider these questions:
- Are you willing to follow Jesus if it means losing some of your closest friends?
- Are you willing to follow Jesus if it means alienation from your family?
- Are you willing to follow Jesus if it means the loss of your reputation?
- Are you willing to follow Jesus if it means losing your job?
- Are you willing to follow Jesus if it means losing your life?
Certainly these are very tough questions. However, as we all well know, in many places in the world, these consequences are reality. But notice the questions are phrased, "Are you willing?" Following Jesus doesn't necessarily mean all these things will happen to you, but… are you willing to take up your cross? If there comes a point in your life where you are faced with a choice….Jesus?… or the comforts of this life?…which will you choose?
These thoughts tie perfectly into the inspiration contained in Matthew Kelly's new book, "Resisting Happiness"; the book that every family received after Mass last week, as a Christmas gift from the parish. If you are still awaiting your tum to read it (only 186 pages), I encourage you to do so as soon as you can. Happy New Year! Happy Life! These are genuinely good aspirations and desires for every person… young and old, infirm or well, "away" from the Church, or in full accord. With its curious title however… "Resisting Happiness" …I must mention that it is not a "How to Book" for denying ourselves happiness. Happiness is God's desire for us all, as we faithfully carry our various crosses in pursuit of the Eternal Happiness He has promised all His good and faithful servants. He wants good things for us even more than we want them for ourselves, for He knows, without error, what is the best for us. The world, the flesh, and the devil cannot allure and deceive Him, as unfortunately they have done for so much of the world. That ongoing deceit has our world, and our nation, profoundly resisting God (and resisting all that is truly good), thereby resisting the very source and provider of happiness, Himself. And, instead, has us pursuing, embracing and praising veritable evils as being good. Evils like homosexual expressive acts, so-called same-sex marriage, and the myth of so-called trans-genderism. Add to those (now "good") evils, the label recently given (by the favored, but losing presidential contender) to the abominable act of killing inconvenient pre-born babies. The candidate proclaimed abortion to be "a fundamental human right"; suggested expansion of world-wide access to abortion; and, in league with the "father of lies", labeling "goods" as evil…professed that deep-seated American "cultural codes", religious beliefs, and structural biases, have to be changed …and then likened pro-life Americans to terrorists.
Let us be clear that it is our misguided quest for, and embrace of, the many worldly attractions, that provide the barrier; that instills and ignites our "Resistance to Happiness." God is Good. God is Love. God is our Happiness. Pursue Him in all that you do… by simply living in the peace and accord that His will and His precepts. How long does it take us to clearly discern and see the light, and the truth in His "way". Truly wishing you happiness throughout your new year. Choose well and peace will be with you.
Happy New Year,

Earlier this month, actor Ewan McGregor auctioned off his favorite motorcycle to raise money for UNICEF.
Look To The Stars can now reveal that the bike was sold for US$44,000 – with the money to go to the organization's work helping children around the world cope with war, famine, poverty, and natural disasters.
"Unicef would like to thank Ewan McGregor for auctioning his much-loved motorbike, which has raised the sizeable sum of £22,100 for our work with children globally," said UNICEF's Fiona Hesselden. "This money will support Unicef's Children's Emergency Fund, helping children such as those in Zimbabwe or the Democratic Republic of Congo who so urgently need our help at this time."
McGregor bought the rare white Moto Guzzi California Vintage cycle directly from the factory in Italy and rode it back to London. He then used it regularly and it became one of his most treasured possessions.
Earlier this year, McGregor joined Charley Boorman in a marathon motorcycle ride in Africa. The pair visited charity projects around the continent and raised over $621,000 at a charity dinner when they returned.

'The work of a solicitor is quite different from that of a barrister' Outline the work of the two professions and consider whether this statement is accurate.
Extracts from this document...
b)`The work of a solicitor is quite different from that of a barrister` Outline the work of the two professions and consider whether this statement is accurate. In the legal profession, there are two main categories of a lawyer. These two categories are barristers and solicitors. Between the two there are differences such as their training, their wages as well as their individual roles. In this essay, I will be discussing the different areas and how they differ. I will also compare them to each other and will analyse and evaluate them. To train as a barrister, you need a degree of at least at upper second class honors. If the degree is in law then the graduate can go onto the next stage of training. However, if the degree is in another subject than law, then the student must do a Common Professional Examination or then a Postgraduate Diploma in Law to go onto the next stage of training as a Barrister. This is known as the academic training. On the other hand, to train as a solicitor the graduate is needed to have a similar educational background to a barrister. It is essential to have a degree of some sort and by doing a Common Professional Examination (CPE), it provides general knowledge of the subject. ...read more.
After six months of doing pupillage, the trainee barrister is allowed to appear in courts on behalf of clients. A major disadvantage is that their salary is often very small for all the hard work that has been put in. Little salary is better than no salary as it used to be in the old days. For a solicitor, after having completed the LPC, the next step is to attain a training contract with a fully qualified solicitor. This is the last step before a trainee solicitor becomes a practicing solicitor with all the necessary qualifications. Usually this is with a firm. It could also involve working with a private company or a local authority. The contract is drawn up for two years and is similar in nature to a barrister's pupillage. The trainee solicitor will be required to adopt many skills and techniques learnt combined with the knowledge they have gained throughout their studies. During the two years, the trainee will gain experience of a day-to-day business of a solicitor. The trainee is expected to have the same degree of professionalism as a fully qualified solicitor has. The only disadvantage of this is that trainees get paid as little as �5000 a year. ...read more.
Now barristers can be sued for negligence by their clients at any time. As a matter of etiquette, barristers refer to each other as my learned friends. They do not shake hands and do not use headed notepads. An important rule is that subject to exceptional cases, counsel can only accept instructions from a solicitor. After explaining the differences between barristers and solicitors, it seems that both have a lot in common. For example a similarity is that academic training is the same i.e. a degree of upper class is needed in Law or some other subject. Their training of a similar nature, working with qualified professionals. There they master key skills and techniques as well as exercising their knowledge. This practical training course will cost each between �4000 and �7000, so it preferred that students are from a wealthy background. Barristers and solicitors roles, however, are not quite so similar. A barrister goes into court and fights whereas a solicitor's job is mainly paperwork and advice members of the public when needed. Solicitors are a link to barristers, yet some professionals can approach a barrister directly. This is the main difference between the two professions. So I conclude that, despite the similarities, the work of a solicitor is quite different from that of a barrister. ...read more.
