at Miracle Field in Cranberry Twp., PA. Miracle Field was in large part funded by a grant by Pittsburgh Pirates charities. The Miracle League offers kids with special needs a chance to play baseball on an accessible big league-style field with a scoreboard, dugouts, a play-by-play announcer, and a rubberized surface. Every child has a great time, as do the very special volunteers (one per child plus coaches). To learn more, check out www.miracleleagueofsouthwesternpa.com.

This is Sixer and he let me witness a miracle on Thursday. Sixer's owner, who has mental issues, moved out of a house that was rented from an older member of the family and told them that the cats had been given away. They hadn't been given away, they had just been locked up inside the house without food or water.
Sixer dropped from 10.5 lbs (4.8 kilos) to 4.8 lbs (2.2 kilos) and nobody knows exactly how long he was trapped.
At the clinic, we had treated him for an unbelievable flea infestation and gave him fluids subcutaneously and put him in a warming cage to try and get his body temperature up when he crashed.
At 11:30 Thursday morning, he had no vital signs whatsoever and my boss swung into action. I ran for twenty minutes grabbing apparatus and drugs for her and slowly, but surely, Sixer came back to life. We kept hands on treatment going until 9:00 pm and were over joyed Friday afternoon to send him home with the people that had rescued him from the house.
So...how's that for a miracle? (or at least, one tough 8-lifed cat)
It's Friday! Last day of work before my two week break. UVI closes for two weeks between Christmas and New Years. It's soooo nice.
Tonight is the Miracle on Main street and Lighted Boat Parade. We decided to enter the boat this year so Jay and our WV friends will be running around today gathering lights and decorating the boat. I hope to get out of work early so that I can help. Miracle on Main Street is a really nice event. If you're on island you should definitely come downtown and check it out. The stores stay open late for Christmas shopping, there will be steel pan bands playing Christmas tunes, bars and restaurants offering specials on food and drinks. And boats out in the harbor decorated with Christmas lights circling around. Its just a really nice event to get you in the Christmas spirit.
Merry Christmas :-)

The raspberries were amazing -- the miracle fruit removed any tartness and left a huge berry wallop.
Croatia. Dubrovnik.
A one week summer break.
The cathedral was built on the site of several former cathedrals, including 7th, 10th and 11th century buildings, and their 12th century successor in the Romanesque style. The money to build the basilica was partially contributed by the English king Richard the Lion Heart, as a votive for having survived a shipwreck near the island of Lokrum in 1192 on his return from the Third Crusade.
This building was largely destroyed in the earthquake of 1667. The Senate of Dubrovnik appealed to the Italian architect Andrea Bufalini of Urbino, who sent a model for the new church in Baroque style with a nave, two aisles and a cupola. Several other Italian architects including Francesco Cortese (present from 1669 until his death in 1670), Paolo Andreotti of Genoa (present 1671-1674), Pier Antonio Bazzi of Genoa (present 1677-78), and friar Tommaso Napoli of Palermo (present 1689 - 1700), all working with local and imported stonemasons, completed the Cathedral over the next three decades. Napoli made several crucial changes to the original plans including the use of a cross vault and the opening of large thermal windows at the upper level. This gives the whole interior a lighter and brighter feel. The style of the cathedral is in keeping with the esthetics of Roman Baroque architecture as practiced by Bernini, Carlo Fontana and their 17th century contemporaries.[5] The construction began in 1673. The building was finished in 1713 by the Dubrovnik architect Ilija Katičić.
The building was damaged by the 1979 Montenegro earthquake, requiring several years of repairs.
The cathedral was damaged by at least one shell during the Siege of Dubrovnik in 1991. The damage has since been repaired.
