Warwickshire Online Parish Clerks Important: please read the explanation of the scheme before contacting an Online Parish Clerk (OPC) (if you have previously read this explanation, jump to the list of parishes but please remember that new information is being added to this explanation, as well as to the table) If you are looking for research help click on the initial letter of the parish in which you are interested in the main table on this page (alternatively use your browser's search/find facility). The table is arranged strictly alphabetically. Little Packington is found among the Ls, not the Ps, and Bishops Itchington is amongst the Bs, etc. Quick links to external sources of information on family and local history: The first Online Parish Clerk scheme was organised by a group researching family history in Cornwall, and most subsequent schemes have followed the lead of Cornwall in the way they are organised. Online-Parish-Clerks (OPCs) are volunteers who collect and transcribe records for a chosen specific parish. td>

Virtual Reality Aimed At The Elderly Finds New Fans Virginia Anderlini (right) was the first private client to try out Dr. Sonya Kim's new virtual reality program for the elderly, and says she's eager to see more. Kim's handful of programs are still at the demo stage. Kara Platoni/KQED hide caption toggle caption Kara Platoni/KQED Virginia Anderlini (right) was the first private client to try out Dr. Kara Platoni/KQED Virginia Anderlini is 103 years old, and she is about to take her sixth trip into virtual reality. In real life, she is sitting on the sofa in the bay window of her San Francisco assisted-living facility. But in the virtual world, Anderlini is on a Hawaiian beach, and it's sunset, and she is surrounded by a glistening sea and a molten, purple-red sky. "Hello, it's so nice to see you again," comes Kim's pre-recorded voice from inside the headset. "Oh my goodness!" Aloha VR combines images of beaches with music, brief text and an audio introduction and welcome from the physician who helped create the program. Courtesy of Dr.

Kingfisher Project – Description Greek Sailaways are one to two week sailing holidays in a Christian environment offered through August and September, aboard the S/Y “ENCOUNTER ” our 90ft (27m) traditional gaff rigged schooner. Aboard the “Encounter” you’ll have the opportunity to experience the joy and beauty of sailing among some of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean Sea. In the evenings however, you’ll be able to relax as you gaze at the setting sun, laying safely at anchor in a remote cove enjoying fine Greek and international meals, good company and the gentle sounds of the sea. The daily schedule will involve sail training, knots, navigation, snorkeling over reefs and through caves, cliff jumping and windsurfing with lessons included, also excursions ashore, as well as ample opportunity to relax with a good book or chat with a friend, or just lay on the deck and soak in the sun. Most days we will take the opportunity to explore God’s Word in an informal and friendly atmosphere.

Sussex Online Parish Clerks (OPC) home page Shelter From The Storm | The Official Bob Dylan Site ’Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form “Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured I’ll always do my best for her, on that I give my word In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm “Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved Everything up to that point had been left unresolved Try imagining a place where it’s always safe and warm “Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail Poisoned in the bushes an’ blown out on the trail Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn “Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” Copyright © 1974 by Ram's Horn Music; renewed 2002 by Ram’s Horn Music

Can soup change the world? Detroit - once a manufacturing giant - went bust in 2013. An innovative crowd-funding project called Detroit Soup is helping the city get back on its feet. It's a typical winter's night in Michigan. Snow is falling, and so is the temperature - it's -15C at last count. Unsociable conditions such as these would put paid to plans for many people, but not in Detroit. "Winter 'Soups' always do well," says Detroit Soup founder Amy Kaherl, preparing for the latest of her fundraising events. With a small team of dedicated volunteers, an empty hall is quickly filled with tables laden with huge loaves of bread, and the waft of soup. "Tonight is our 95th soup, and in total we've raised over $85,000 (£57,000)," she says proudly. The 33-year-old Kaherl is a master multi-tasker - with her rapid-fire speech she is the kind of person who can answer three questions in one sentence. With the presentations over, soup is served. "The money can only go so far, and it went pretty fast actually. Inspired?
