[Return to our Roots] While Annette Pulley is a little nervous about the memories her daughter may have as she steps back into the orphanage, where she was chained to her bed because there was not enough adult supervision for the number of children, she is also excited to be able to help the Romanian children in need.

[ChildLaw Blog] Foreign Policy Magazine Exposes International Orphan Myth ...: For instance, US officials fully intended to embarrass Vietnamese officials with a release in April of 2008 that was nothing more than a well planned retelling of 10 stories (out of the 1400+ adoptions approved) of corruption released by the Department of State in February of 2008. This manipulated the Vietnamese into a corner from which they found it impossible to renegotiate the Memorandum of Understanding that Vietnam requires to participate in international adoption.

the new shelton wet/dry: Some vampire experts claim that kits such as the present lot were very common in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries among travelers to Eastern Europe, particularly the Carpathians, and could be requested from the concierge desk of their hotels. Others claim that the kits originated in twentieth century America and are nothing more than romantic curiosities.

[Belmont Club] Belmont Club » Do not forsake me: I mean, how weird –as weird as asking people to believe that Georgia’s armed forces were equal or better than Russia’s (maybe the first few thousand troops, the first fighter squadron, the first tank brigade –but then Georgia goes to zero and Putin still has a hundred divisions, 6000 combat aircraft, 2000 tanks, 2000 medium range bombardment missiles, ICBMs, brown and blue and undersea water navies, theater nukes, tac nukes, battlefield nukes, 21st century C&C, hordes of heavily-armed out-of-uniform bloodthirsty psycho-irregulars with permission from Russian puppets to keep whatever properties and farms they can murder or terrorize the owners out of, and a gas and oil -powered 20,000 man diplomatic/espionage corp lodged in every world city, fully armed with honey-pot fotos of the local national leaders, street demonstrators on-call, bought journos, et cetera et cetera).

[Alternative Film Guide] New York Film Festival 2008: Film Line-Up: Made in and around the director’s native Portland, the film follows a withdrawn high-school skateboarder (Gabe Nevins) as he struggles to make sense of his involvement in an accidental murder, recalling past events across tides of unsteady memory and expressing his feelings in a diary that is, in effect, the movie we are watching. The skating scenes, filmed by Van Sant and cinematographers Christopher Doyle and Rain Kathy Li in a lyrical mixture of Super 8 and 35mm, depict their subjects flying through the air with the greatest of ease, momentarily free from the earthly troubles of adolescence.

[RHRealityCheck.org] The Lie We Love | RHRealityCheck.org: Thanks, commenters, for weighing in on this piece with personal stories and your own observations about international adoption. Clearly, personal experiences with adoption differ, and my perception is that the author in no way seeks to devalue the bonds between adoptive parents and children or what adoptive parents can offer children (and these bonds are a valuable part of this conversation, so I greatly appreciate you all contributing).  Rather, EJ is offering a critique of abuses that can and do happen on a systemic level in a situation where levels of accountability can vary and adopting families can have incomplete information about the child they are adopting.

If it was only about money, there would have been no reason that Bristol and Willow were not at the resignation speech or at Bristol Bay.

[owen strachan] A Moving Story of Adoption, and a New Way to Be a Missionary ...: Were this to be true, we might see that all tribes and tongues of the earth may discover the gospel not simply through missionaries who go and stay, but missionaries who go and bring back.  That is, couples who could spend their money on a bigger home, or a faster car, or yet another expensive vacation will catch a vision for investing their hard-earned money in the salvation of the lost through adoption of the orphan.  Maybe you don’t have to be sent through a foreign missions board to be a missionary; maybe you can be one by the simple but life-transforming act of adopting a child or two (or three or four).

[Orson's Travel Blog] 2005 Eastern Europe: On the second day of my vacation, I proceeded to fight my way through the Italian Alps, bypassing the Passo Di Stelvio because I think that 500 hairpins in 11 kilometers is a wee bit much. Passing Bozeno, I made my way to the chi chi Italian ski resort of Cortina D’Ampezzo.
