tiffany mens necklaceROME – With summer officially started and school seasons wrapping up, the YMCAs of the Greater Tri-Valley will once again provide summer fun for children who are looking to fill that time gap that used to be spent at school. Rome, Oneida and New Hartford YMCAs all feature summer day camps for children ages four to 13. Camp Silver Arrow (based out of the Oneida YMCA), Camp Crooked Arrow (Rome YMCA) and Camp Mighty Arrow (New Hartford) are all summer camps that run five days a week starting June 27 and ending Aug. 26. “Our goal is to help boys and girls to grow physically, mentally, and socially,” says Maryalice Golden. tiffany uk shop

Summer camp days consist of arts and crafts, sports and recreation, nature activities, camp songs and water activities to beat the summer heat. Since YMCA summer camps have full access to the respective YMCA facilities, the possibilities are endless as to what a child can participate in. Children can attend these camps for just one week or for the entire summer, and although there are weekly payment rates for the camps, the camps are still cheaper than your usual babysitter rates. tiffany pendants

BEIRUT: The U.N.-backed court probing the assassination of statesman Rafik Hariri will finalize its indictment next week, and it will contain the name of a Hezbollah commander among others accused of the crime, diplomatic and judicial sources told The Daily Star Tuesday. Sources familiar with the investigation said that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon will provide State Prosecutor Saeed Mirza with a sealed indictment at the start of next month, which may come before the new government finalizes a policy statement that could omit direct reference to the court. “We expect the indictment on either July 3 or 4,” said one source. “Mirza has to do something [with the indictment], but the next stage is difficult.”

tiffany accessories It added that the name of a senior Hezbollah military commander who is believed to be residing in Lebanon would be contained in the indictment. State Prosecutor Saeed Mirza confirmed to The Daily Star that he would announce publicly when an indictment had been received but demurred on what would happen next. “I cannot say what I will do,” Mirza said. “I do not know [when the indictment will be released]: they have been saying that they will issue it for years.” Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah has slammed the STL, labeling it an “Israeli project” and warned to “cut the hand” of anyone targeting his organization in relation to Hariri’s murder. Nasrallah acknowledged that the names of individuals belonging to the party would likely feature in an indictment.

tiffany necklace white gold The STL has maintained that it will seek to indict individuals, not political entities. But the court’s reported intent to accuse a senior party official of carrying out the assassination is likely to put Lebanon’s judiciary in a bind, particularly if the Cabinet has not formed a coherent policy statement by the time the indictment lands. “According to the procedures, the STL will inform judicial authorities to arrest and hand in the names listed in the indictment,” a judicial source told The Daily Star. “However, judicial authorities will not be able to act if the indictment includes individuals from Hezbollah.

tiffany necklace silver“Under the current circumstances and without a Cabinet [policy] statement, judicial authorities will be in some kind of limbo,” the source added. Lebanon signed an agreement with the U.N. in 2007 to cooperate with the international court, although that commitment has been questioned following the formation of a March 8 government in Beirut. Prime Minister Najib Mikati has said that the new administration would maintain its international commitments on the proviso that they do not destabilize civil peace. cheap tiffany

The judicial source said that The Hague was working on a purely legal level and it was therefore unlikely that individuals such as STL Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare and pre-trial Judge Daniel Fransen would consider the fraught condition of Lebanon before finalizing an indictment. “The situation in Lebanon will not change the stance of the STL. For whatever reason the judicial authorities fail to apprehend the suspects, the STL will consider that Lebanon has failed to implement its duties toward the tribunal,” the source said.

tiffany cufflinks “In case the indictment is issued and Lebanon fails to cooperate with the tribunal, all the named suspects will be tried in absentia.” The court’s statute dictates that STL President Antonio Cassese must be satisfied that countries receiving the indictment had exerted “sufficient effort” to apprehend accused individuals before going public and naming suspects, should the indictment be handed down in sealed form, as is expected. Former Prime Minister Hariri was killed in a massive car bomb on Feb. 14, 2005, as his motorcade sped through Downtown Beirut. The act brought about popular demonstrations leading to Syrian withdrawal from Lebanon after nearly three decades. Twenty-two others were killed in the attack. tiffany charms

himself and thinks really really

Lights out for the Green Lantern FIRSTLY: a superhero who carries a lantern around like a handbag is never going to be particularly intimidating, is he? Add to that the fact he has to recharge his ring like a cheap mobile phone and his part-time powers just come off a bit, dare I say it, wet.

Pandora Necklace Silver Secondly: while we’re on a film-bashing trajectory, ‘star’ of the show, Ryan Reynolds, does little to improve matters, indeed fulfilling the description made by someone far funnier than I, that he is in fact the human equivalent of low-fat spread. Bland, weak and more than a little dull. In fairness to Reynolds, who can’t be blamed for the fact that the Green Lantern story is the diet version of a fizzy drink, the final nail in an already half-buried coffin is the fact that the power bestowed upon our Superhero Lite is the unspeakably lame possession of ‘will’. Talk about positive thinking. pandora packages

Our superhero may as well sit at home swatting up on self-help books, learning the art of zen and chanting ‘if one believes he can save the world, one can’. The film, which recounts the DC Comics ‘silver age’ era of the Green Lantern series, sees Reynolds’ character, Hal Jordan, appointed to replace dying alien warrior, Abin Sur, who has been defeated by Parallax, a former Green Lantern guardian who has succumbed to the power of ‘fear’.

pandora sets Seeing himself unfit to take the role and duly told so by his mentor Sinestro, Hal quits and returns to Earth, although he is allowed to keep the power ring and lantern battery, so it wasn’t an entirely wasted journey into outer space. But with the help of love interest, Carol, (Blake Lively), Hal comes to terms with his self worth and realises until he accepts his own downfalls, namely his aversion to any sort of responsibility (a pre- requisite for the job, you’d imagine), his standard of crime-fighting is never going to be up to scratch. Pandora Charms Bracelets

Cheap Pandora JewelrySo, he looks inside himself and thinks really really really hard about his immature behaviour and lo and behold, he throws off his man-child cloak and saves the world. I did not see that coming. On a more positive note, the one decent line in the whole cheesy script comes from Lively, who asks the question which has burned in me like an irritating fire since I learnt to read comic books: “Why do you think I can’t recognise you just because I can’t see your cheek bones?” Quite! I’m all for suspension of disbelief but a strip of material across the eyes does not a mask make. Pandora Bracelet Charms

Sadly, while it did warm me to hear someone point out something I’ve wondered for years, it doesn’t negate the fact that against the slew of comic book classics currently setting the silver screen ablaze, Green Lantern is a weak tribute to far more exciting contemporaries. Pandora Jewelry

Morgan Keegan agreed

Morgan Keegan paying $200M to settle fraud charges WASHINGTON – Investment firm Morgan Keegan & Co. is paying $200 million to settle civil fraud charges that it overstated the value of mortgage investments just as the housing market was collapsing in 2007 and lured buyers of its funds with false sales materials. Morgan Keegan's parent company, Regions Financial Corp., also announced Wednesday that it hired investment bank Goldman Sachs & Co.

tiffany and co outlet to explore "potential strategic alternatives" for Morgan Keegan. The alternatives could include a sale of the firm or divisions of it. Federal and state regulators said the actions of Morgan Keegan, based in Memphis, Tenn., caused investors in five funds to lose an estimated $1.5 billion. Morgan Keegan failed to use "reasonable" procedures to calculate the value of securities in the funds backed by high-risk mortgages, the regulators said.

tiffany cufflinks The firm misrepresented the value of the funds and the risk involved to entice people to invest, they said. Half of the money will go toward compensating investors. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, regulators in Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee, and securities industry regulators announced the settlement Wednesday. tiffany pendants

Two former employees of the firm also agreed to pay civil penalties. It was the latest legal action by regulators in connection with the mortgage meltdown and financial crisis. On Tuesday, Wall Street bank JPMorgan Chase & Co. agreed to pay $153.6 million to settle the SEC's civil fraud charges that it misled buyers of complex mortgage investments just as the housing market was collapsing. Regulators have been investigating a number of major banks' actions ahead of the financial crisis that plunged the country into the most severe recession since the 1930s. tiffany & co outlet

More charges are expected. Of the $200 million that Morgan Keegan agreed to pay, a $75 million penalty and $25 million in restitution was levied by the SEC. The remaining $100 million will go to a state fund, with the money to be distributed to investors who were harmed. In addition, Morgan Keegan agreed not to make valuations of securities for investment funds for three years. The firm got out of the valuation business in 2008. tiffany jewelry outlet

"The falsification of fund values misrepresented critical information exactly when investors needed it most — when the subprime mortgage meltdown was impacting the funds," SEC Enforcement Director Robert Khuzami said in a statement. "Such misconduct does grievous harm to investors." Regions, based in Birmingham, Ala., received $3.5 billion in taxpayer funds under the federal financial bailout in 2008 and hasn't yet repaid the government. __ Associated Press writer Greg Bluestein in Atlanta contributed to this report. tiffany outlet

said he took public

Convicted Kennedale killer was a regular at strip club FORT WORTH -- Wearing a low-cut halter dress, a red-haired dancer who goes by the stage name Scarlet testified Thursday in the capital murder trial of John Hummel, telling jurors that he was a regular client at the topless club where she worked and texted and phoned her repeatedly. "I would make at least 100 bucks every time he came in, at least," said Gretchen Bowe, 35, who said she's been dancing on and off since she was 18. "He knew my schedule. tiffany men's necklace

" Bowe told the jury that, on several occasions in late 2009, Hummel tried to get her to come to the Cleburne hospital where he worked nights as a security guard to "smoke weed and do other things" but she never did. "He would blow my cellphone up, like text after text after text," she said. She said she playfully flirted with Hummel and sat and talked with him at the club -- as she does with other regulars -- but never took it any further. "We would talk, and then I would give him a dance," she said. "Whatever they're interested in, I'm interested in." Bowe was among several prosecution witnesses called Thursday during the punishment phase of Hummel's trial. The jury convicted Hummel, 35, on Wednesday of killing his pregnant wife, Joy, 34, and his disabled father-in-law, Clyde "Eddie" Bedford, 57. tiffany necklace

The jury also heard that Hummel killed his 5-year-old daughter, Jodi, and set their house in Kennedale on fire with their bodies inside. Now jurors are hearing testimony to determine whether Hummel should be sentenced to life in prison without parole or to death. Since the trial began last Monday, prosecutors Miles Brissette and Bob Gill have maintained that Hummel killed his family so he could be free to pursue other women and party. On Thursday, they continued with that theme, presenting evidence that Hummel frequented topless clubs and used drugs after he killed his family. On Dec. tiffany necklace silver

19, 2009, while authorities were investigating the deaths in Kennedale, Hummel arrived in Oceanside, Calif., where he checked into a motel room and went to a topless club. He met a man near the club, and they went to Mexico. Scott Matejka testified that Hummel approached him on the street and asked him if he knew where he could get marijuana. Matejka said they returned to Hummel's motel room, where they smoked crack cocaine and talked about driving to the border and going into Mexico to find more drugs. "Mexico is always a trigger for me," Matejka said. tiffany necklace white gold

"When we talked about it and I had a ride, heck yeah, I was in." Matejka said they parked at the border, smoked the last of his crack and walked into Mexico, where they went to a topless bar. Matejka said he couldn't get any drugs and didn't know whether Hummel did. He said that when they tried to cross back over the border, he was allowed through but Hummel was stopped. The jury had heard earlier that Hummel was detained at the border for not having the proper documents and was arrested when authorities learned that he was wanted in Texas. Matejka said he took public transportation home. tiffany charms

Investigators contacted him later, wanting to talk about Hummel, whose name he did not remember at the time. On cross-examination by defense attorney Fred Cummings, who is working with Larry Moore and Pam Fernandez, Matejka said he did most of the talking the night he was with Hummel and found him to be a quiet man who drank little, if any, alcohol. "We were given a free beer, and I don't even remember him being a drinker," Matejka said. Testimony is scheduled to continue today in state District Judge Ruben Gonzalez's court. tiffany pendants

me well; in fact, people

Pandora Beads Charms My name is Winston due to my grandmother having lived in Britain during World War II. I have melting brown eyes and silvery blond hair and am tall and well built. I live with my family in an upper-crust neighborhood. When they adopted me, they thought I was going to be average in height and build. They became anxious when my feet grew huge, but they had already fallen in love with me and did not have the heart to send me back. The first thing I did in my new home was to chase the cat, Oscar, a good-for-nothing, sit-on-the-windowsill-basking-in-the-sun type. I chased him downstairs and he took up quarters on top of the freezer. I never did like cats. The next thing was to proclaim myself boss of the family. My mother was a single mom with two daughters, and my job was to look after them.

Pandora Charms OnlineI would tell them what to do -- not the other way around -- and they soon became my adoring slaves, especially Mom. My sisters were in a kind of love/hate relationship with me, which really annoyed me as I was always affectionate. When they felt like it they paid me attention, and when they were busy they yelled at me. Another thing I don't like is that when my sisters bring out their soft toys, I bring mine out from my toy box, but they will not let me join in their games. And then there is my ball: Mom will play with me by throwing it, but never outside. They tell me to go out and play, but there is nobody to play with, so I kick the door until they let me in. Why should I go out and play by myself when they don't have to?

Pandora Charms for braceletsAnother of my banes is that they will not let me eat at the table. I sit there and watch them at mealtime, and they ignore me. I used to go into the kitchen and help Mom cook and would taste the meat on the counter (I am really tall) and the whole family would panic and chase me around the house. Well, serves them right. They should let me eat at the table instead of my having to get my dinner off the kitchen counter. Undignified! Mom hung sleigh bells on the back door, so that when I want to go outside I ring the bells. When I am hungry I ring the bells, and they come running, thinking I want to go out, but I just stand there, and they get me some food. Being the man of the house, I keep a close watch on the front door. Pandora Earrings

When the mailman comes around I really go off my rocker -- I leap to the front door, and he just will not open that door and give me the mail. I want to take Mom's mail to her, but the mailman does not trust me. And then there is Granma. Well! Granma does not care for me, maybe because I am adopted and not a blood relative. But, being of a very affectionate nature, I am all over Gran when she comes over, and she always says "Go away!" To Winston! She does not know who she is dealing with. My biological parents were both champions who won trophies in shows, but, because of my silvery coloring, I don't qualify. Sometimes they treat me like a dog! But I still love them and will do anything for them, and will still watch over them and keep strangers away from the house. I am the best friend they have; you'd think they would appreciate me more. Well, Mom treats me well; in fact, people say she spoils me, but it is my sisters and Gran who treat me like a dog. Pandora Earrings Silver

But, on the whole, my family is very good to me, giving me Christmas gifts and special treats, and letting me put my huge feet on the chairs and sleep. I have a comfy bed in Mom's bedroom. No, I am not a mama's boy, I am there to watch over her. When she goes to work I watch the house and chase Oscar down to the basement if he ever dares to show his face. I know when my sisters come home from school, and I know when Mom is coming home from work. I wait and wait at the top of the stairs for her and jump all over her, kissing her and hugging her. She is really my best friend. I love Mom! Pandora Necklace
