Do you have a plan ... ?

Source from my home in Jasper Place

Gerry told me "Does your fiance that women change their mind right away? " I said, "Yes, he already knew about me. but maybe..." He laughed a lot as usual and keep saying to me about marrige life. "You need children. Do you have a plan to hav a children? " "I think I'm not ready yet, my fiance too."
"You're 30. It's late" , " I know, actually almost my friends have a children or be pregnancy now. When it comes to marriage and children,I'm much more later than them. But anyway I'm not sure. I have no confidence in baby even though I like the kids."

"You know, you can learn many things from your children. I can tell you. Not that I'm smart. "

At that time Liz was going down from upstairs and joined our conversation. She said "You have 9 months to be ready. Don't worry about that." She went to on say "However the most important thing is spending a time between wife and husband. You'd better have some time. because you have been apart from each other for a long time. "

"What a such good advice it is! " I thought. But I still felt something in my mind kind of anxiety,tension to be a mother. I can't imagine that. I have no concept of being parents.

I'm not 30. I'm 31 years old.
Time flies. It's true.

The growing economy fund

Dear investor

Last week,the Board of Trustees of The Growing Economy Fund declared a 100% share dividend. This has the same effect as a 2-for-1 share split. This transaction will occur Thursday,May 24,to shareholders of record at the close of business on Wednesday,May 23.
As a result of this transaction,the number of shares you owned before the transaction will be doubled,while the net asset value will be reduced by half. The reduced net asset value makes it easier financially for people who prefer to purchase shares of the fund in 100-share increments.
This does not alter the total value of your Growing Economy Fund investment. It simply means that you'll own twice the number of shares at half the price per share.

Source from CBC.COM

A man with a painted face entered a daycare outside Brussels and stabbed to death up to two children and an adult, police say.Two nurses from the Fabeltjesland daycare walk outside a crisis centre set up in Dendermonde, near Brussels, after the attacks on Friday.
At least 10 other children aged three or younger were believed to be injured, some critically, freelance reporter Patricia Kelly told CBC News from the small town of Dendermonde, about 30 kilometres northwest of the Belgian capital.
Officials say the attacker fled the Fabeltjesland daycare on a bicycle, but police caught and arrested a man shortly afterward in a supermarket. Witnesses in the grocery store said he was extremely thin, had red hair and a face painted black and white.
Local reports say he was a patient at a nearby psychiatric hospital.
The suspect was to appear before a judge later Friday.
Peter Claymens, the director of the Dendermonde Ambulance Centre, said many of the injured were babies and small children.Police work outside the daycare on Friday.

"It was a disaster. All the children were lying down on the ground, bleeding, in the neck, in the stomach, everywhere," he said.
Town Mayor Piet Buyse launched an emergency action plan to evacuate people from the daycare by helicopter and ambulance. They have been taken to a local hospital in Dendermonde.
Buyse told Belgian radio and television broadcaster VRT that daycare staff are "in a state of shock."
Grief counsellors have been brought in to speak with staff and the children.
Police say they have no motive for the attack.

There was a Psychiatric hospital nearby the daycare. One of the patiences in that hospital attack the daycare. He walked into the daycare and stabbed the children. Then, he fled the Fabeltjesland daycare on a bicycle but the police man caught him and arrest a man shortly after in supermarket. According to witness, he was extremely thin, had a red hair and a face painted black and white.
He killed as many as 3 and at least 10 other children aged three or younger were believed to be injured. Why. why he did do that.. There is no reason to do that. The staffs in daycare were in a state of shock. They have no motive for the attack.

There are many comments talking about this accident such as below.
It's so interesting to see that one topic can make some different opinios like this.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Having a daycare near a psychiatric hospital is asking for trouble. They should have shackle an electrical device on every patient equip with GPS. If patient gets 20 feet near daycares or schools, device emit an electrical current to shock person unconscience. Otherwise, having lock doors with security cameras and intercom. State your business, identify yourself, your relationship to the children, and xray scan for dangerous weapons.


2) Hey Madronian: if he had a gun he might have killed 30, or have you already forgotten about Virginia Tech? By your twisted logic why not legalize possession of hand grenades(수류탄) and rocket launchers!

3) Really though...it is sometimes impossible to prevent this type of tragedy. This man was obviously not well and attacked the innocent. Nobody expects this kind of thing, so it is difficult to prevent. As someone who works with children, I know we take as much precaution as possible to prevent this sort of thing, but there are still loopholes(헛점)...I mean, we are only human. I send my heart out to the parents of the dead and injured, and to the workers at the daycare who will carry this with them permanently.

4) My condolences goes out to those affected families. This is truly a tragic event. Thinkagain wrote "You should realise that the real culprits here are the doctors, nurses and/or security personnel ..."
