This book is intended for the traveller in that special world called Imagination. Some would say that Somery does not exist. That is true, in the same sense that Middle-Earth, Utopia and Hogwarts do not exist. But still, to some people, when reading the books, those places may feel as complex and vivid as if they actually did exist. To me Somery is such a place, even if it is merely there in my head. I see it as a tool for my imagination; a trigger for my creativity. Why, I still hear some of you ask, do grown up men spend hours on something that might seem so meaningless as creating imaginary countries? Well, you could ask the same question about many things. Why do people collect stamps? Why do people dress up as characters out of Tolkien’s books? Why do people spend a whole weekend playing computer games on a network? We all get something back that makes us smile, and enjoy life. Bo Bernvill Kaxholmen 2008 4 5 SUNDRIES HOW TO GET THERE Somery has regular airline connections with a number of large cities. Most flights arrive at Sherthevear International Airhaven outside Sibury, or at Wim- prish Lofthaven near Melster.

Although one home approximately 50 yards from the fire was in the path of the flames, the home was not damaged. Fairchild estimated the total damaged area of the fire to be greater than or equal to 20 acres. The Texas Forestry Service re- mained on scene after the fire was ex- tinguished to establish a cordon around the home and continue monitoring for safety, Fairchild said.

Box 3378 Honolulu, HI 96801-3378 doh.testimony@doh.hawaii.gov Testimony in SUPPORT of H.B. 1911 RELATING TO HEALTH. REPRESANTATIVE JOHN M. MIZUNO, CHAIR HOUSE COMMITTEE ON HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Hearing Date: Wednesday, January 25, 2018 Room Number: 329 1 Fiscal Implications: None known. 2 Department Testimony: Thank you for the opportunity to testify in SUPPORT of this measure. 3 This measure authorizes the Department of Health (DOH) to investigate care facilities 4 reported to be operating without an appropriate certificate or license issued by the Department. 5 It establishes penalties for violations and for patient referral or transfer to uncertified or 6 unlicensed care facilities. 7 The DOH Office of Health Care Assurance (OHCA) has the regulatory authority to issue 8 health care facility licenses and to conduct surveys (inspections) to ensure compliance with 9 licensing requirements. 10 OHCA had seen a very small but growing number of “caregivers” opening care homes 11 and providing care as possibly unlicensed care homes. OHCA has investigated these homes with 12 mixed success. Some homes voluntarily close once they are notified of licensing requirements, 13 or perhaps they simply moved locations. Other home owners have refused entry by DOH OHCA 14 investigators citing private property concerns. H.B. 1911 Page 2 of 2 1 OHCA needs legislation for improved investigative authority to enter private property 2 when conducting a lawful investigation on potentially unlicensed care homes to ensure the 3 health, safety and welfare of persons receiving care at these homes.

  • I Want to Be a Part of It: Popular Music and Me an Honors Thesis (HONRS
    - I Want to Be a Part of It: Popular Music and Me An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by William L. Allen Thesis Advisors Dr. Tony Edmonds Mr. Stan Sollars Ball State University Muncie, Indiana April 1996 May 1996 (expected graduation date) " , " - I .~.!~, Author's Note: IA6~ What you are about to read is basically my autobiography. It concerns my relationship with popular music, which, outside of family and friends, is the most important part of my life. It's a relationship that has been going on for more than two decades, and I feel it is worth close examination on my part. For my senior thesis, I decided to perform my own concert. I would like more than anything in life to be an entertainer. Since show business is so hard to get into (and be successful), I thought I should perform while I still had the chance--before I had to settle down and get a real job. The written part, which you are now reading, is very informal. Throughout high school, I was always told not to use contractions and not to write in the informal second person. I've always questioned this. After all, it's my work. Who has the right to tell me what I can and can not put in it? I write in a very conversational style. When I tell a story, it helps if I feel as though I'm conversing with or writing a letter to you, the reader. Consequently, I use the pronoun "you" from time to time. I use contractions because that's how we as human beings speak.
