At the end of the day, we believe that what women truly want is to have made a difference, to have mattered in the lives of others. And so we take this opportunity to honor a woman who mattered beyond measure to us: our sister Susan, who will continue to inuence us and our families for generations to come. A daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend, she loved and was loved in every role. Over the past two-and-a-half years, we watched her ght illness with dignity and grace; never once asking, Why me? She taught us much as we witnessed her courage, strength, love of life, family and faith.

For there is no friend like a sister In calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, To fetch one if one goes astray, To lift one if one totters down, To strengthen whilst one stands.
Christina Rossetti, Goblin Market and Other Poems

To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each others hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time.

2. Apply oil and massage it into your face for a minute or two. 3. Wipe the oil off with a warm, wet washcloth. Hold the washcloth to cover your face; allow it to stay until it cools. Wipe the oil gently away and rinse the washcloth well in hot, running water. Hold the washcloth to your face again, allowing it to cool. Wipe gently, rinse the washcloth well, and repeat two or three more times. Scrubbing is unnecessary your skin will be soft, smooth and free of akes without manual exfoliation and irritation. Impurities, dead skin cells and bacteria will be gently swept away. 4. One or two drops of your blend may be used to moisturize the skin after the cleansing oil has been removed from your face if your skin feels tight. Pat it onto your damp skin and gently massage any residue into your skin so there is no lm of oil left on the surface.

would work for ne hair. It is a must try as well and has an awesome scent, something that many organic shampoos dont. Throughout the sunny days of summer, we also need to tackle color fading. Who wants their awesome color to fade? No one! Always use a color-protected shampoo. Alterna bamboo vibrant color shampoo and conditioner helps to hold color for up to 60 washes, depending on how much is done to your hair besides color. The number one reason color fades so fast in the summer is because 30 minutes in the sun can denitely create a bleach effect. Cover your hair when in the sun and keep that fabulous color as vibrant as possible! And remember the brand Alterna when shopping for ways to conquer summer hair problems!

Turtlenecks best with longer necklaces Crewnecks best with short necklaces such as necklace collar or bib styles Scoop necks ll in the space with multiple strands of beads or larger scale pendants Strapless look great with chokers or short pendants, leaving your lovely decolletage bare Square necks look for pendants with an angular nish to harmonize with the angular neckline Asymmetric necklines look for necklaces that arent symmetrical; a necklace that has its own asymmetry can work, alternatively a long string of different sized and shaped beads can work well Halter necks these create a narrow V neck, so look for a narrow pendant with a sharper end V-neck ideally a necklace that matches the shape of the V, depending if its a wider or narrower V-neck Collared shirt (button down) there isnt much space for anything too wide, so a choker style works if you have a long neck; if not, a slimmer pendant that sits above the last open button Boat neck a long string or two of beads is ideal for this neckline Cowl neck this neckline is already detailed and has volume, so either a short and small pendant or a pair of earrings instead of a necklace Sweetheart a curved necklace that has width will balance the open decolletage of this neckline.

Every engagement ring purchase is as unique as the person for whom it is being bought. There are a few things to consider when purchasing the perfect ring. First, it is important to think about for whom the ring is being purchased. What does she like? You might be one of the few whose girlfriend isnt picky, but more than likely she has an opinion. Some women want their perfect engagement ring to look a certain way. If this is the case, diamond quality isnt as important as the overall appearance of the ring. On the other hand, she may be a seasoned jewelry lover who appreciates good quality over size. Enlist the help of your girlfriends friends or mother. They will be able to help guide you in the right direction! Once you know what youre looking for overall, its time to pick your center stone.

Unique economic environments There are still signicant differences between countries markets and economic sectors. For example, the nancial services and energy sectors represent a much larger percentage of international market capitalization than U.S. market capitalization. On the other hand, the technology and health care sectors represent a larger percentage of U.S. market capitalization. Valuation variations When international stocks are less expensive than U.S. stocks, value-oriented investors and investors looking to diversify growth-oriented portfolios may nd attractive opportunities in foreign markets. Currency considerations During the 1990s, the rising value of the U.S. dollar curtailed the returns of foreign investments. More recently, however, the dollar has weakened versus the euro,

Pets
Sibling relationships and 80 percent of Americans have at least one outlast marriages, survive the death of parents, resurface after quarrels that would sink any friendship. They flourish in a thousand incarnations of closeness and distance, warmth, loyalty and distrust.
Erica E. Goode, The Secret World of Siblings, U.S. News & World Report, 10 January 1994
Why does the Midlands have one of the highest euthanasia rates in our state, much higher than Charleston or Greenville?
Nathan Winograd, director of the national No-Kill Advocacy Center, believes a community can become a No-Kill community overnight. I think it depends on how committed our community and our leaders are to achieving this goal. Is it easy? No. Does it take a lot of work and a change in how we respond to the problem? Yes! With any community that has achieved the No-Kill status, the top priority is the live release rate. The standard process of transporting, housing and euthanizing can no longer be the norm. Our community, meaning pet owners and our leaders, must commit to solving the problem and no longer accept that euthanizing our best friends is acceptable. So can the Midlands become a No-Kill Community? Of course we can. It is about humanity, compassion and respect. It is about putting real solutions in place through public/private partnerships that save money, solve problems and save lives.
