'How I made peace with myself after my father was murdered'
I was at school at Chesterton Community College when I was told to go home urgently - I was greeted by police cars and the sound of my sister crying

On Tuesday 12 May 1992, my father was murdered and my world changed for ever.
At 3pm, a teacher came to my classroom to tell me my mother had requested that I go home urgently. I will never forget that heart-sinking feeling at the thought that something terrible had happened. I arrived home to be greeted by police cars and the sound of my sister crying in the living room – a sound that will stay with me for ever.
My mother took me upstairs and told me my father had died that morning. I have never held her so tightly. I would never see my dad again, I thought. I would never play football with him again and I would never hold his hand again. I was 12.
After I was told, I fled the house, got on my bike, and went back to school to see one of my closest friends, whose father had died of lung cancer when she was nine. I remember dropping my bike on the school driveway, running towards her and collapsing into her arms. I whispered two words – "Dad's dead", then sank to the floor and burst into tears.
It was not until I came back home that evening that my uncle sat me down to tell me that Dad had not died in a car crash, as I had at first thought, but had been murdered.

At the time, our family had a cleaner who was going through a difficult divorce and my parents were helping her through it. The husband would check her post to try to find anything that pointed to his wife having an affair. Because of this, she had her post redirected to our house so my father could keep it and pass it safely on to her.
On 12 May, the husband followed his wife to the house where my father delivered the post. He turned up to find my father's car outside. He went to a local shop where he stole a boning knife, then returned to the house where my father and the woman were drinking coffee in the kitchen.
After a brief struggle, the man pulled out the knife and stabbed my father twice, killing him instantly and then turning on his wife. The wife ran out of the house and the man grabbed another knife from the kitchen and continued to stab my father. He then buried the knife in the garden and left.
He was later caught and went to prison for four years.

That evening, as my uncle told me how my father had died, my feeling was one of anger and I swore to do to the man what he had done to my father. I even picked up my father's pocket knife, telling my uncle that I would get revenge.
After he died, I stopped playing sport – it was too painful a reminder of the times we had spent together
Deep down, though, I knew that the only way I could live my life was to make peace with myself. It sounds strange, but I always tried to stay positive after my father's murder. I had to make peace with myself at an early age for the good of my future.

I still vividly remember my father's funeral. I was standing outside the church when one of my father's friends approached. "You are now the man of the family," he said. For a 12-year-old boy who had just lost his role model, it was quite a burden to be told I was now responsible for looking after my mother and two sisters.
For many years, I wouldn't talk about what happened. I locked the memories away. But I could never forget my dad's smile, or how quickly he walked and how I struggled to keep up with him when holding his hand. I had loved spending time with him, particularly playing football or tennis.
The grieving process is strange. No matter how you experience it, one day you are fine and the next the grief hits you like a sledgehammer.
Throughout my teenage years, my grief had turned to anger and frustration – why had this happened to me? The last thing on my mind was leaving school with good grades. But I was extremely fortunate to have a support network that kept me on the right path. I had an incredible mother who loved me and accepted that things would be OK in time, and my friends were supportive and understanding.
I have always believed that I have been guided subconsciously by something; perhaps my father has been helping me along the way.

On 17 April 2011, I became a father for the first time. I was a dad to a baby boy, Otis. To hold your child for the first time is a magical moment, but for me it felt extra special. All of my emotions and heartache had washed away at that moment, and all I felt was love for this baby.
I had never really thought about the emotional legacy of my father's murder until I became a father myself. Now, nearly 25 years after my father's death, I am married to Simone and have two children, Otis, six, and Thea, two. But the overwhelming sense of loss is still great and I can't help but wonder how this traumatic event made me the parent I am today. The obvious consequence was that losing a role model at such a young age left me without a male figure to go to for advice.

I would also find it painful visiting friends' houses, seeing them with their fathers. I did become very close to one friend and his family. They would let me stay over and eat with them; and I have always tried to take inspiration from my friend's father. Mainly, though, I enjoyed the strong sense of family they had together. This is what I missed most in losing my own father so young.
I have been very lucky to be helped by people who simply cared and this has helped me be the father I am today.
If there is one hero in this tragic event, it is my mum. The strength she must have had to carry on with three children is incredible and I will never understand how she kept so strong following the loss of her husband, just as I will never be able to comprehend why another person would want to cause so much senseless destruction, affecting so many lives in the process.
Since becoming a dad, I have always known that the time will come when I will have to sit down with my children to tell them what happened to Grandpa. Otis has recently been asking questions about where Grandpa is and why he isn't alive any more. I guess it is about dealing with it in stages throughout his life. But the time will come eventually.
It was not until my mid-20s that I looked for proper help. The greatest challenge for anyone struggling with their mental health is to open up and be brave enough to talk about how they are feeling. I was helped greatly by the bereavement charity Cruse.
By speaking about this subject so publicly, my hope is that, in some way, I can help a young person experiencing a similar loss.
Fantastic charities such as Winston's Wish and Cruse understand the impact of bereavement at a young age and have developed a range of practical support and guidance for children, their families and professionals. They offer specialist support programmes for children affected by deaths related to murder, manslaughter, suicide or the military community.
Writing about something so personal has been hard, but strangely cathartic. Four words have always stuck with me: time is my healer. Time doesn't make dealing with my father's tragic loss any easier, but it does enable me to learn how to cope with the loss.
I hope that in some way my experience has taught me to enjoy life and love my family even more. It has certainly given me an outlook on life that can only come from losing someone so precious. It has made me stronger, both for myself and for my family.

The Accidental Asian
Author: Liu, Eric
Publisher: Vintage Books
Series: Vintage
Biography & Autobiography Political
Biography & Autobiography Cultural
Beyond black and white, native and alien, lies a vast and fertile field of human experience. It is here that Eric Liu, former speechwriter for President Clinton and noted political commentator, invites us to explore.
In these compellingly candid essays, Liu reflects on his life as a second-generation Chinese American and reveals the shifting frames of ethnic identity. Finding himself unable to read a Chinese memorial book about his father's life, he looks critically at the cost of his own assimilation. But he casts an equally questioning eye on the effort to sustain vast racial categories like "Asian American." And as he surveys the rising anxiety about China's influence, Liu illuminates the space that Asians have always occupied in the American imagination. Reminiscent of the work of James Baldwin and its unwavering honesty, The Accidental Asian introduces a powerful and elegant voice into the discussion of what it means to be an American.

New Kia Stinger Luxury Sedan Making Waves
By Matshepo on	 Jan 12, 2017 Motoring
New KIA Stinger
KIA unveiled the stunning Stinger four-door coupe on Monday, nothing that the motoring world has ever seen from the Korean automaker. Albert Biermann, Kia's head of high-performance development, said in a statement. "Because nobody expects such a car, not just the way it looks but also the way it drives. It's a wholly different animal."
KIA Stinger Interior
The standard 2018 KIA Stinger is powered by a 2.0-liter, 255-horsepower, turbocharged four-cylinder engine, while the performance spec GT version gets a 365-horsepower, twin-turbo V6. Both engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, putting power to the pavement through either the rear wheels or all four wheels.
The Stinger was designed at Kia's European design center in Frankfurt, Germany. It is poised to compete with industry heavyweights such as the BMW 3-Series, the Mercedes C-Class, the Audi A4, the Cadillac ATS, the Lexus IS, the Infiniti Q50, and the Jaguar XE may also consider the Stinger. KIA Stinger got an upper hand when it had a German designer, engineer and was developed at the Nürburgring. It's a Korean car with a heavy dose of Teutonic Genes.
The 2018 KIA Stinger is expected to reach showrooms later this year. Official pricing will be announced closer to the launch date.

Q: "One-Day Only Promotion" or "One-Day-Only Promotion" A copywriter I'm working with wrote "One-Day Only Promotion" but my feeling is that "One-Day-Only Promotion" is correct. The first three words describe 'Promotion'. I know you don't hyphenate adverbs, but does that apply when one is part of a compound adjective?

A: It should be one-day-only promotion, for the reason you reported.

Have a look at some more genuine, authentic, certified, they-really-happened hyphos (a word we've made up on the model of typos): sung-lasses, barf-lies, warp-lanes, doork-nobes, broom-sticks, pre-gnant, air-trips, boot-traps, stars-truck, sli-pup, ong-oing. —Comma sense, Richard Lederer, John Shore

A: I agree that "One-Day-Only" would be correct.
But copywriting is the Niagara Falls of bad grammar, so I've grown used to poor usage there. I often see this as "One Day Only Promotion" and my hide has been thickened over time to the point where it doesn't hurt me any longer.
Addendum
It is normal practice, in journalism at least, to consider the first compound noun in a compound adjective as a complete entity, so only one would be used. For example,

New York-style pizza

Nevertheless, if the compound modifier is long (and the first part is not a proper noun), it is not uncommon to hyphenate all single words in it.

Faith-Healing Parents Jailed After Second Child's Death
Catherine Schaible walks from the criminal justice center Feb. 19, 2014, in Philadelphia.
Matt Rourke—AP
A Pennsylvania mother and father who believe in faith-healing were sent to jail Wednesday for causing the death of their young, sick child by refusing to take him to the doctor. It was the second of Herbert and Catherine Schaible's children to die under their care.
"You've killed two of your children…not God, not your church, not religious devotion — you," Philadelphia Judge Benjamin Lerner told the couple, as he sentenced them to between three and a half and seven years behind bars. The Schaibles pled no contest to third-degree murder in their eight-month-old son Brandon's death last year from pneumonia.
The Schaibles lost a first child in 2009, a two-year-old who died from pneumonia. They were sentenced to ten years probation for involuntary manslaughter for that death. Part of their probation stated that they must seek medical care if another one of their children became sick.
Herbert Schaible told police last year that medicine violates their religious beliefs. "We believe in divine healing, the Jesus shed blood for our healing and that he died on the cross to break the devil's power," he said.

The couple belongs to a small Pentacostal community. They have seven surviving children.

How to Choose a Great Gift for the Special Woman in Your Life!
5 Infused Water Combos for Staying Refreshed and Hydrated During Monsoon!
Your body could crash faster than your computer if not hydrated well. One way to make sure you are hydrated at all times is by carrying a water bottle with you. Invest in a bottle, that will reflect your personality, and complement you perfectly whether you are dressed up for work, a workout, a fun outing, or a walk in the park!
Identify the Purpose – There are as many water bottles in the market as the number of activities you can do in a day. If you can choose one water bottle for all of your activities like work, gym, running, those occasional backpacking trips, and travel, then you are sorted. An attractive see-through plastic bottle will not work if you would like to carry a warm beverage to work, also, with plastic's tendency to leach chemicals into anything it comes in contact with, it is quite an unsafe choice too! Water bottles, therefore have to be chosen with care, keeping in mind the various ways you will be using them.
Shape – If you drive around a lot, a bottle that will conveniently fit into your car door cup holder slot is a best option. Also, water bottles with wide mouths are comfortable both for loading and for cleaning. If you are partial towards infused drinks, with chunks of fresh fruits along with herbs or warm soups or conjee, look for a wide mouth bottle, one that is both easy to load and not a hassle to clean!
Make – If you like carrying different beverages when heading out, you need stainless steel or glass ware. Plastic bottles alter even the taste of water, are carcinogenic, and unsafe for prolonged use. Glassware are fragile and need to be handled with extra care all the time. If you are looking at usability, durability and longevity, stainless steel water bottles are the best and safest bet.
Ease of Use- There is no point in choosing a bottle you can't use every day as it defies the whole purpose. Choose a leak-resistant bottle that is not bulky, easily fits into any bag you carry and has a wide mouth for easy loading and cleaning.
Choose an insulated steel water bottle that will morph into a slimmer, trendier version of thermos flask when you need one or into a multi-utility leak-resistant tumbler that you can use to carry your water, protein shakes, juices, soups or even conjee.
Shop online for Vaya Drynk, a versatile stainless-steel tumbler that comes with sipper, gulper lids and two cups for sharing.

Background: Both acute and chronic forms of physical activity have been shown to positively impact cognition, particularly in young children (Verburgh et al. 2014). However, the type of activity to make the largest improvements in cognition has not been evaluated. Physical activities that are cognitively demanding and enjoyable have been suggested by many (e.g. Best 2010, Diamond & Ling, 2016) as activities likely to produce the largest gains in cognition when compared to more traditional forms of aerobic activity. The aim of this study is to determine whether a combined aerobically and cognitively engaging acute physical activity intervention is superior to either an aerobic or cognitive activity alone in improving executive function in 6-8-year-old children.
3) A dual cognitive-exercise activity playing an game of Connect 4 where children were asked to run forward 45-ft to a large Connect 4 board.
In 4-min intervals throughout the activity, participants were asked to rate their perceived mental and physical exertion using Borg's CR0-10 scale (Borg, 1998) as well as their affect using the Feeling Scale (Hardy & Rejeski, 1989). Before and after the condition, children completed an executive function task to assess their inhibition.
Results: Forty eight children have been randomized and have completed the study and data is currently being analysed.

La Resolució 1073 del Consell de Seguretat de les Nacions Unides fou adoptada el 28 de setembre de 1996. Després de recordar totes les resolucions sobre Jerusalem i prenent nota d'una carta de l'Aràbia Saudita en nom de la Lliga Àrab, el Consell va exigir a Israel a cessar i revertir tots els actes qui havia donat lloc a un empitjorament a la regió.

Antecedents
El 23 de setembre de 1996, Israel va obrir túnel que unia el Mur de les Lamentacions amb una sortida a prop de la Muntanya del Temple. L'obertura va provocar disturbis als territoris que van durar cinc dies i provocaren la mort de 14 israelians i 56 àrabs. Unes 300 persones foren ferides.

Resolució
Es va expressar preocupació pels enfrontaments entre els palestins i l'Exèrcit israelià a Jerusalem, Nablus, Ramal·lah, Betlem i la Franja de Gaza qui va resultar en morts i ferits en ambdós costats. També hi havia preocupació per les implicacions més àmplies en el procés de pau a l'Orient Mitjà en el seu conjunt.

Es va instar el cessament i la revocació de tots els actes per part d'Israel, mentre que es va reclamar la seguretat dels palestins i la represa de les negociacions.

La resolució 1073 va ser aprovada per 14 vots contra cap en contra, amb una abstenció dels Estats Units.
