The Adventures Of Sable Georgia: The Ultimate Plan is the first novel in the Sable Geogia series, written by Sissy Laino. The main character, Sable, is said to be, "loosely based on myself (Sissy Laino), I created her so I could tell people a little of what my opinions are on things". Sable's best friends, Samantha Perkins and Crystal Bergman, are based on some of Sissy's close friends. Another main character, Tyrone, is, "based on no one specific, if you were wondering". Shauna and Shannie, as said by Sissy, "are based on my cousins. They are usually helpful, and always know the right way out of things". The way Sissy Laino thought of the story plot is very unique; "I thought of this story at school a while ago; and yes, I am still in school." The book is followed by The Adventures Of Sable Georgia: The Pink Sword. Sissy Laino has not even began writing it, so it may be a long wait for the sequel. Laino says, "If you are patient, the sequel will be worth the long wait. I have barely even finished off the plot, so I can't tell you much."

The Sisters of Saint Joseph of Chambery were founded by Jane Sedgwick of Stockbridge, MA in 1885. The North American Province is one of 13 worldwide provinces that form an international community of approximately 2500 sisters. Our Generalate is in Rome and local communities are located in Africa, Brazil, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, India, Italy, Norway, Pakistan, Sweden and Wales.
The Sisters of Saint Joseph came into being to respond to the many human needs of a struggling world. It is that same spirit that energizes our community today and carries us into the future. Ours is a rich and moving history.
Origins: In the early 1640s, the French wars and great suffering ran rampant through the countryside of Le Puy. Touched by the misery of the people, a small group of women came together. They shared a common dream and desire to dedicate themselves to God, to live among the people and to meet the needs of the poor.
Founding: Historically, religious life was open only to those who brought money, goods or land to the religious order they wished to join. Those orders lived apart from the common people. Strengthened by the belief that they had a true calling from God, these devoted women sought the counsel of a young Jesuit priest, Jean Pierre Medaille, SJ. Under his guidance and encouragement, the first foundation of the Sisters of Saint Joseph came into being. The year was 1650. This new community, located among the poor, served the needs of all and opened religious life to women of all classes.
Persecution: In 1789, the French Revolution created persecution of the Catholic Church and the end of formal religious orders of men and women. But for the grace of God, the Sisters of Saint Joseph almost disappeared as many sisters went into hiding while others faced imprisonment and the guillotine for their beliefs.
Rebirth: At the end of the Revolution in 1807, the community flourished again under the leadership of Jeanne Fontbonne. More and more, generous and courageous women bonded together to serve the needs of their sisters and brothers.
Arrival in the United States: The North American Province owes its beginning to Jane Sedgwick of Stockbridge, MA — a convert to Catholicism. She desired to establish a Catholic school in Lee, MA. Since there weren’t enough sisters in the United States to aid in the running of the school, Jane went to Rome to appeal to Pope Leo XIII to send help. In 1885, five sisters of Saint Joseph of Chambery arrived in Lee to open the school. The rest, as they say, is history. The foundation spread roots into Connecticut and eventually into other parts of the United States.
With a View to the World: Today, Sisters of Saint Joseph respond to challenges that include: violence and abuse, oppression, conflict, hunger, homelessness, and alienation of families, to name a few. Our ministries roam the United States from coast to coast and extend into Mexico. The North American Province is one of 13 worldwide provinces that form an international community of approximately 2500 sisters. Our Generalate is in Rome and local communities are located in Africa, Brazil, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, India, Italy, Norway, Pakistan, Sweden and Wales.
We believe that today there continue to be generous women who share the vision of our founder. Most likely, they are women like ourselves who desire to serve others, in God’s name. And no doubt, they are women of faith who possess great courage and a willingness to risk. We invite you to join us to make Jesus’ dream - THAT ALL MAY BE ONE - a living reality in our world

Emi Chusuk is a great musical composer from the Legends of Dune Series by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson. Emi Chusuk is a prominent musician from the Old Empire. He life began and ended before the Time of Titans came to be. His music is complimented beside those of Brahms and Mozart. In the 1st book, The Butlerian Jihad, Erasmus, a thinking robot, attempts to woo Serena Butler, the daughter of the Viceroy, by playing what he calls "great music" on a piano in front of his slaves and Serena Butler. The music Erasmus composes matches the skill and talents as that of Chusuk's, but does not convey any feelings whatsoever. Serena Butler scolds Erasmus' music after the performance but he is confused. All the slaves cheered, causing him to think he played excellent music. Serena Butler then tells him that they would have complimented him anyway, since he is a cruel master and any respite from work for them is cause enough for them to be happy. Also, they, the slaves, have never heard any great musical works. Erasmus never understands...
Yaar Muhammad, Sipah Salar, was born in a Rajput family, in the 18th century to Shah Mohammad, a celebrated Sufi saint. He joined the Mysorian Army and soon became one of the favourite Military Officials of Tippu Sultan. Seeing his patriotic and dauntless behaviour, Tippu Sultan made him his Commander-in-Chief. He fought in the Battle of Seringapatam against the oppression of British Imperialism, but after the death of the Tippu Sultan, and later the fall of Mysore, he had to run away to avoid being captured by the British Army.
After the fall of Mysore, General Yaar Mohammad spent the rest of his life in abscondment and humbleness. To the British, he was one of the most wanted Mysorian officials. They tried to capture him, alive or dead, but couldn’t succeed. All his relatives and family members were killed by tyrant British forces, due to their relation with Tippu’s most trusted General, but only he along with his father Shah Noor Mohammad and son Ilahi Baksh, succeeded in their escape. They lived out the rest of their lives as fugitives. General Yaar Mohammad died in the first half of 19th century. Today, his descendants are living in some districts of Punjab and are leading quite non-military and non-political lives.
