Expect to see Kristen Stewart's perma-scowl plastered over even more magazines next year: Refinery 29 reports that the starlet formerly known as Bella Swan will be the face of Chanel's Paris-Dallas 2013 Métiers d'Art Collection when it rolls out in May 2014. (Time works differently in the fashion world, folks.)
She appeared last night in Dallas at a fashion show/camped-up hoedown to launch the collection, wearing orange leather pants by Chanel. Fashion!
As for why Dallas, the Metiers d'Art is a luxe annual showcase for the brand, which honors different locales each time. Vogue says Dallas and the American West won out this year because of the outsized role Texas played in the company's post-war relaunch. No one seemed particularly excited about Chanel's 1954 comeback collection—except America. Dallas-based Neiman Marcus in particular helped keep the company afloat, and in 1957 Coco Chanel was warmly welcomed on a visit to the city.
Unfortunately, it seems when styling the fashion show Lagerfeld and Co. were unable to restrain themselves from, yup, face paint and faux Native American headdresses.
This really ought to class up the (supposed) feud between KStew and Dior emissary Jennifer Lawrence.

Smithfield, London
area in the City of London
Smithfield is an area of the City of London, in the ward of Farringdon Without situated in the north-west part of the City. The core street of the area is West Smithfield. There are a group of important institutions located in the area, St Bartholomew's Hospital, the London Charterhouse, the Livery Halls of the Butchers' Hall and the Haberdashers' Hall, but is mainly known for its centuries-old meat market, today the last surviving historical wholesale market in Central London.

- It was market morning. The ground was covered nearly ankle deep with filth and mire; and a thick steam perpetually rising from the reeking bodies of the cattle, and mingling with the fog, which seemed to rest upon the chimney tops, hung heavily above … Countrymen, butchers, drovers, hawkers, boys , thieves, idlers, and vagabonds of every low grade, were mingled together in a dense mass: the whistling of drovers, the barking of dogs, the bellowing and plunging of beasts, the bleating of sheep, and the grunting and squealing of pigs; the cries of hawkers, the shouts, oaths, and quarrelling on all sides, the ringing of bells, and the roar of voices that issued from every public house; the crowding, pushing, driving, beating, whooping and yelling; the hideous and discordant din that resounded from every corner of the market; and the unwashed, unshaven, squalid, and dirty figures constantly running to and fro, and bursting in and out of the throng, rendered it a stunning and bewildering scene which quite confused the senses.
- Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist (1838)
- If the stranger can make his way through the crowd … and can manage to raise himself a few feet above the general level, he sees before him in one direction, by the dim light of hundreds of torches, a writhing party-coloured mass, surmounted by twisting horns, some in rows, tied to rails which run along the whole length of the open space, some gathered in one struggling knot.
In another quarter, the moving torches reveal to him, now and then, through the misty light, a couple of acres of living wool, or roods of pigs' skins. If he ventures into this closely wedged and labouring mass, he is enabled to watch more narrowly the reason of the universal ferment among the beasts.
The drover with his goad is forcing the cattle into the smallest possible compass, and a little further on half a dozen men are making desperate efforts to drag refractory oxen up to the rails with ropes …
The sheep, squeezed into hurdles like figs into a drum, lie down upon each other, and make no sign; the pigs, on the other hand, cry out before they are hurt.
This scene, which has more the appearance of a hideous nightmare than a weekly exhibition in a civilized country, is accompanied by the barking of dogs, the bellowing of cattle, the cursing of men, and the dull blow of sticks … The hubbub generally abates from 12 o'clock at night, the time of opening, to its close at 3 p.m. the next day, although during the whole period as fresh lots are "headed up", individual acts of cruelty continue...
Many of the drovers we doubt not are ruffians, but we believe the greater part of the cruelty is to be ascribed to the market's place itself which, considering the immense amount of business to be got through on Mondays and Fridays, is absurdly and disgracefully confined.
- Dr Andrew Wynter, The Quarterly Review (1854) Urban75.org: A cattle drive by Smithfield Market

If you want to be successful at price chart analysis, then you need to learn how to read candlestick charts. Sure, you may still be stuck with the old line chart. But the candlesticks are more easy on the eyes. They make it easier to make trading decisions and the information is a lot more clear cut.
So you there is no way you can memorize all 103 candlesticks patterns News flash! You don't need to learn all of them! That'd be totally insane. But you do need to know ten of these candlestick patterns.
As you can see the Doji shaped like a cross with similar opening and closing prices.
What's Going on Here?
Price remains the same. It also represents market indecision on the part of the buyers and sellers.
How Do I Trade Doji?
Two ways. First you can trade the doji like a reverse signal. Second, you can trade it as an uptrend signal. But make sure the trends are evident before you trade the doji.. Let's watch below how the doji trade plays out.
The Marabozu pattern is the complete opposite of a doji. It's a visual block whose opening and closing prices are at opposite ends of the candlestick.
What's Happening Here?
A higher closing price(green candlestick) suggests strong bullish strength, while a lower closing price(red candlestick) suggests a bearish pattern.
How Do I Trade Marabuzu?
Look out for the following:
1.Continuation a in a break out
- Partial candlestick pattern.
See how the Marabuzu trade plays out below
The harami is a mother and child situation. The first candlestick is the mother and the second candlestick is the child. The body of the baby bar is usually within the body of the bar.
If it's not obvious to you by now, bullish candlesticks like the harami are colored green or white. The bearish harami the first bar, closes lower than it opens, while the bullish harami(second)closes higher..
What's Going on Here?
The market has created a weak reversal. The bigger candle stands for the actual price while the small candle reflects reduced volatility. It also explains why harami patterns are also termed inside bars.
How Do I Trade Harami?
In a bullish trend, the harami signifies the end of the bearish retracement. Then the bulls take over…When this scenario takes shape, you enter your buy trade. While in a bearish trend, the harami signifies end of bullish retracement with the bears taken over. In such a scenario, you enter your buy trade.
The chart below explains this point nicely.
Engulfing Candle
The engulfing candle is the horizontal opposite of a harami. An engulfing candle forms when the body of the second candle overshadows the first candle.
What's Going on Here?
a reversal is taking place. When you see the second body engulfing the first body, that suggests a strong reversal signal.
How Do I Trade Engulfing Candle?
Place a trade to buy when you see a straight bullish continuation. On the opposite side, place a trade to sell when you see a straight bearish continuation.
Here is an illustration below of the Engulfing candle trade
Piercing Line and Dark Cloud
The piercing line and dark cloud represent the bullish and bearish and bearish variants of the two bar pattern. The first candlestick of the Piercing is bearish(Red on most charts) . The white candlestick(green most charts) on the other hand, opens below the low of the first candle. It then closes above the mid-point of the first candlestick.
What's Going on Here??
The second bar of the piercing line pattern created the impression that a bearish pattern. is about to happen.Unfortunately the bearish pattern fails to come off, causing all the gains from the bearish pattern were wiped away. Eventually the bulls(green bar) take over. This creates the opportunity to enter a buy trade.
The same situation replicates in the Dark Cloud Pattern. The first gap triggered hopes of a bullish offensive. Unfortunately the lower close doused such hopes So the bears(red candlestick).
How Do I Trade Piercing Line / Dark Cloud?
With the Piercing Line, look for bullish reversals only after the break of a bearish trend line. IF you want to trade the Dark Cloud Cover, only trade spot bearish reversals after a bullish trend line has been broken.
Let's see an example of Piercing Line/ Dark Cloud Cover in action below.
Hammer/Hanging Man Pattern
People have been wondering whether the Hammer/Hanging man are two different entities..Well, as you can clearly see from this graphic, they're one and the same-regardless of color.They both have a body near the top of the candlestick, and a long lower shadow. The difference is that the Hammer acts as a bullish signal after the market declines. While the Hanging man bearish signal found at the end of a bullish pattern.
What's Going On Here?
The Hammer pattern tends to set up sellers who buy in the lower region of the bullish candle., forcing them to run for cover. This creates buying opportunities for traders. If you're to look for a bar equivalent look no further than the pin bar pattern.
The Hanging man is a bullish candlestick topping an upward trend.Just like the bearish Hanging man, it upward posture draws traders to buy with gusto. But when the market falls, it knocks traders out of their long positions. That is why it pays to wait for bearish confirmation before going short on the Hang Man pattern.
How Do I Trade Hammer/Hanging Man?
When faced with a downtrend, buy above the Hammer pattern in case in case of a reversal. Keep in mind that you can also trade the hammer pattern like a bullish pin bar. But when faced with an uptrend, sell below the hanging man after the bears confirm.
Watch the Hanging Man in action below.
Inverted Hammer/Shooting Star
Just like the Hammer /Hanging Man Pattern, the Inverted Hammer/Shooting System are one of the same. The difference being that an Inverted Hammer is found a the end of a downtrend, while the Shooting Star is found at the end of an uptrend.
What's Happening Here?
The Inverted Hammer is a bullish pattern. And in a downtrend, the bears try to bully the sellers to sell. Unfortunately, when the sellers fail push the market down, the bulls react with a bang.
The bearish Shooting Star sets up traps for buyers. The Shooting Star tricks traders who buy in its higher range.Hence, they're forced to sell off their long positions.
How Do I Trade Inverted Hammer/Shooting Star?
If you spot a downtrend, buy above the Inverted Hammer pattern after bullish confirmation.Similarly, if you spot an uptrend, sell above the Shooting Star for a possible reversal.
Below is the Inverted Hammer trade in action.
Morning Star/Evening Star
The Morning Star/Evening Star are described as three bar patterns. They both have small bodied stars that do not interfere with the preceding candlesticks. This non-interference stance by both pattern's small bodies create a gap between the candlesticks. No wonder the Morning Star and Evening Star Patterns are rarely seen in daily charts.
Let's take the a look at the makeup of both Morning Star and Evening Star. Starting with:
Morning Star
- A long bearish(red) candlestick
- A star below the candlestick(bullish or bearish)
- A bullish(green) candlestick closing within the body of the bearish candlestick.
Now we move on to:
Evening Star
- A long bullish(green) candlestick.
- A star above the bullish candlestick
- A bearish candlestick closing within the body of the bullish candlestick.
The closest pattern to the Evening Star is the three bar reversal.
What's Going on Here?
The first candlesticks of both patterns establish some kind of dominance only to wilt in the latter stages. First the bears come out strong in the Morning Star pattern. Then the little star drops a hint of a takeover by the Bulls. Eventually, the brute force of the bulls is a bit too much for the bears.
A similar scenario is evident in the Evening Star pattern. The bulls establish a foothold through he green candlestick. The little star drops little hints of a bearish takeover, until the bears eventually take over the show.
How Do I trade Morning Star/Evening Star?
Use both patterns to spot reversals and continuations
- If you want to buy, enter your buy order above the last bar of the Morning Star formation
- If you plan on cashing in, enter your sell order above the last bar of the Evening Star formation.
Let's see the two formations at work below:
Three White Soldiers/Three Black Crows
No, Three White Soldiers/Three Black Crows are not rock bands. As you can see above, they're candlestick patterns just like the other candlestick patterns we discussed earlier. With The Three White soldiers, each of the candles opens tucked within the previous candle.They all eventually close on a high.
The same logic is evident with the Three Black Crows pattern. Each candlestick is tucked within the previous candlestick. Except that instead of finishing on a high, they rather finish on a low.
What's Going On Here?
In the White Horses pattern, there seems to be a cat and mouse game going on here. All three candlesticks open with the impression of an imminent bear takeover. But they close on a strong high. Eventually the brute force of the bulls is too much for the bears.
A similar cat and mouse game is going on in the The Black Crows pattern.The Black Crows putting on a bullish façade. However, the the bullishness turns bearish as each bar closes on a low.
How Do I Trade Three White Soldiers/Black Crows
You trade these two patterns as reversals
- Place your buy order above the three White Horses when the market declines
- Place your sell order below the Black Crows when the market rises.
Let's take a look Black Crow/White Horse trade illustration
The Hikake may be Japanese, but a classic candlestick pattern it's not. Why? Because it lays traps for traders.If you're looking for a Hikake pattern, look out for the inside bar.
A bullish Hikake usually features a lower low and a lower higher. This tells us of an imminent bearish breakout of the inside bar. However, when the bearish breakout fails, a long Hikake unfolds.
What's Going On Here?
When the break out breaks down, the price soars in the opposite direction
How Do I trade Hikake?
- Place a buy order if the downtrend break out of an inside bar fails within three bars
- Place a sell order if the uptrend breakout of an inside bar breaks down within three bars
Here is the Hikake in action?
Well, that's a wrap for "Know Ten Of These Candlestick Patterns" Candlestick patterns are an absolute must know in order to be successful with price action analysis. You don't need to know all 100 plus candlesticks. But you need to know these 10 candlestick patterns like the back of your hand.
Til next time take care.

One of the first things I try to define when I have a potential photo composition in me is lines. And, lines are one of the first things I communicate when I look at a piece of art. Of course, this doesn't happen only to me; our eyes are created in this way to understand perspective and search for lines and shapes in order to be oriented.
There are many different kinds of lines one can meet in a composition. There are horizontal, vertical, diagonal, curved and implied. Every of them creates a different impression and feeling to the viewers.
Horizontal are the lines parallel to the horizon and represent the surface of the earth according to the horizon.
That's why these compositions can give us a sense of ease, relax, fun and happiness. They express stability and calmness because they are lying down and don't disrupt or distort our vision.
Vertical lines create a sense of majesty and grandeur as they give the sense of height in the scene (Art with Heart – Assisting the Work by Ph. D. Ruth L. Cohen).
They suggest an uplifting power and a potential energy. When vertical lines are straight and parallel to the side of the photos, they express a sense of strength and stability that enhance the main subject or point of interest.
The famous Spanish architect Antoni Gaudi said that in nature there are no straight lines or sharp corners and therefore buildings must have neither straight lines nor sharp corners. The meaning of curves lines may vary by the form.
|vision by Papanikolaou Joanna on 500px
Soft and shallow curves are more pleasant and would create a feeling of safety, relaxation and comfort. They could also express sensuality as a representation of human curves. On the other hand, deep and acute curves may cause a sense of frustration and turbulence. Moreover, S curve, the line of beauty, carries a more positive meaning of perfect grace and harmony.
Diagonal lines have a dynamic and imply action and motion, when they play a leading role in the composition and guide the viewer's eye.
Especially, if they start from left bottom corner and move up to the center, they offer more depth as natural viewpoint. But, they could also represent tension and instability, if we use multiple and asymmetrical oblique lines.
That's why is essential to choose the proper lines in order to express our distinctive view of a scene in an ultimate way. For example, if I want to express a feeling of tension and frustration, maybe horizontal lines are not suitable. An oblique angle or sharp curves would suggest these off-balance feelings in a better way.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A senior class project for Jerome O'Connor's students is counting for much more than a final grade; it's giving them real world experience and a chance to help people in need. O'Connor, a structural and earthquake engineer at the University at Buffalo, asked his students to design a footbridge across one of the many ravines in rural southeast Kenya. During the rainy season, these ravines become impassible and prevent access to education, economic development and healthcare. The ravines have caused over 6,000 deaths in the last 10 years, according to Bridging the Gap Africa (www.bridgingthegapafrica.org), a nonprofit that has built 48 pedestrian footbridges in Kenya.
UB partnered with the organization to help improve people's lives while giving students some practical experience.
"I decided if the students were going to go through all the trouble to design something, it may as well be something that will actually be built and provide a benefit to people," said O'Connor, adjunct professor of civil, structural and environmental engineering in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.
After doing an environmental impact assessment, the students — 24 total working in teams of six — designed a "suspended" or hanging bridge made of donated steel cables that are supported by steel towers. (View a photo of the bridge at www.buffalo.edu/news/releases/2013/07/011.html.)
An experienced welder in Kenya will fabricate the towers and most of the bridge materials will be sourced from within 100 miles of where it will be built. A typical bridge will span 130 to 200 feet and have a 3.2-foot-wide walkway made of eucalyptus wood.
The students are raising money to buy materials needed for the bridge, which will cost about $20,000. Additional funds are needed for students who will travel to Africa to help build their design.
O'Connor, who also manages UB's bridge engineering program and works for MCEER, the university's earthquake and extreme events research center, came up with the idea after speaking with Kelly Rehm, a member of the board of directors for Bridging the Gap Africa, at a meeting of bridge engineers. O'Connor inquired how UB could support their efforts. The conversation led to the formation of O'Connor's curriculum. He also offered his students the option to attend the Seventh National Seismic Conference on Bridges (7NSC) to assist him in setting up and running the conference in Oakland, Calif.
"I felt this was both an enriching and rewarding experience," said Garrett Miller, a student who helped design the bridge. "I gained priceless information relative to the up-and-coming research, technologies, and governmental policies that will be used in the future of civil engineering," said Miller, who received a bachelor's of science degree in civil engineering in May and will return to UB this fall to pursue a master's degree.
Although the upcoming task is daunting, the students feel they already achieved a significant victory by their teamwork. "When practicing engineering, we need to capitalize on everyone's strengths in order to excel as a team. Different personalities, cultural perspectives, and technical skills help the team arrive at a better solution than any one person would be capable of," O'Connor said.

When Sesame Street characters talk about heart health, your kids may listen — and learn.
After five months of lessons from Sesame Street characters, preschoolers in Bogotá, Colombia improved their habits, attitude and knowledge about a heart-healthy lifestyle and were more likely to be at a healthy weight.
The kids' parents also increased heart-healthy knowledge.
The program:
- Emphasized caring for your body and eating a "rainbow" of fruits and vegetables every day.
- Referred to foods like cookies as "sometimes" food.
- Taught that physical activity is a way to feel great and play with your friends.
These positive responses show that healthy habits should be taught early and integrated in school and family life, researchers said.
The American Heart Association also helps children develop healthy habits, including its preschool health program.

Hastings Street was once the heart of downtown Vancouver, home to the city's top shops, restaurants and hotels.
But that was about 1910.
Today, Hastings is the heart of the Downtown Eastside, Vancouver's most troubled neighbourhood. Hastings has become synonymous with drugs and poverty, an internationally-known eyesore.
But change may be around the corner. The city of Vancouver has spent the last couple of years going through a new Downtown Eastside local area planning process (LAPP), in tandem with many of the neighbourhood's most vocal anti-poverty activists.
The complex plan is scheduled to go to council March 12. And it's already controversial.
The plan calls for the city to create a condo-free zone on Hastings between Carrall Street in Gastown and Heatley Street in Strathcona.
That's seven blocks of prime real estate, all designated rental-only. If the plan is adopted, new developments in the area could charge market rents on only 40 per cent of the units — 60 per cent of the units would be reserved for social housing.
Anti-poverty activists argue that this will retain the low income character of the area, yet provide much better housing than the current stock of SRO hotels.
Others argue it will create a permanent ghetto, and kill Hastings as a retail street, once and for all.
The Battle of Hastings is about to begin.
If the Downtown Eastside plan succeeds — and that's a big if — much of Hastings between Clark Drive in Strathcona and Abbott Street in Gastown is likely to be replaced with new developments. Taller buildings filled with single room occupancy hotel rooms, known as SROs, around Hastings and Main will probably survive, but most everything else is up for grabs, unless it is a designated heritage building or existing social housing.
There will be condos allowed in the five blocks between Clark and Heatley, as well as in the two blocks from Carrall to Cambie. Any new development will have to include 20-per-cent social housing.
The condo-free zone between Heatley and Carrall is called "Hastings Central." Maximum heights range up to 12 storeys, although pure social housing projects can apply to go higher. All new projects in this zone have to be at least 60-per-cent social housing.
Overall, the plan calls for 4,400 social housing units to be built in the Downtown Eastside. Most people think this is the rough patch around Hastings and Main, but the city plan defines it as a much larger area that includes surrounding neighbourhoods like Victory Square, Gastown, Chinatown, Strathcona and Thornton Park.
This is where the controversy started. After Downtown Eastside activists protested a review of the maximum heights allowed in Chinatown, the city decided to set up a committee to plan the entire neighbourhood, with half of the membership from the low-income community.
The committee was co-chaired by the Building Community Society and the Downtown Eastside Neighbourhood Council. Retired Carnegie Centre director Michael Clague and former city planner Ray Spaxman represented the Building Community Society, a group of professionals that has worked in the area. Wendy Pedersen represented the Downtown Eastside Neighbourhood Council.
Pedersen is one of the most high-profile anti-poverty activists in the Downtown Eastside — she was one of the people involved in the protests against Pidgin restaurant on Carrall Street.
She is also one of the leaders of the Carnegie Community Action Project, an organization that has led many Downtown Eastside protests. One of her cohorts in the Action Project is Ivan Drury, another high-profile activist.
The committee wound up including representatives from Downtown Eastside groups such as the Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users, the Western Aboriginal Harm Reduction Society and Survival Sex Workers. In addition, there were two representatives for Chinese seniors, and three spots for "low income residents at large."
There were also spots for four local business associations. But there was only one spot reserved for the Strathcona Residents Association, which represents 5,760 people. So the association initially refused to participate, feeling the committee wasn't balanced.
"We rejected that and boycotted the process for the first year because we thought it was pretty token," said Strathcona Residents president Pete Fry. "We thought that setting it up that way was not an accurate reflection of all the different perspectives in the community."
Former Vancouver Mayor Larry Campbell, who is now a senator in Ottawa, sighed when told about the makeup of the planning committee.
"It's just difficult striking a balance between the Carnegie group and society, quite frankly," he said. "I didn't mean that in a derogatory way. The Carnegie action people clearly have to be involved in their neighbourhood, there's no question about it. (But) it's not either/or, it's not either we have this, or we have this."
The most surprising omission from the planning committee was the two big social housing projects in Strathcona/Chinatown — Maclean Park, which has 2,700 people, and Stamps Place, which has 2,200.
Many of the low-income residents in the neighbourhood use the Ray-Cam Community Centre, which also didn't get a spot on the committee.
Judy McGuire works at Ray-Cam as coordinator for the Inner City Safety Society and co-authored a report titled Vancouver's Downtown Eastside: A Community in Need of Balance.
She would like to see the Downtown Eastside diversify.
"I think a mixed-income neighbourhood is the only way to go," said McGuire.
"There are an awful lot of individuals down here who live in single social housing who frankly would rather live somewhere else, if they had the option. There are families that would rather live somewhere else, if they had the option."
McGuire says if you get too many "high-impact" people with drug or mental health problems in a single building or neighbourhood, it creates problems. She said the best practice is to only have a "minor percentage" of high-impact people in any given project.
"So maybe 10 per cent, 15 per cent of absolutely high-impact, high-needs people, and you kind of go up the ladder from there, so there are a certain number of really stable people (in a project)," she said.
"What that does is that allows everybody to stabilize. You put too many people with the same problems in the same housing, and even people who are trying to stabilize their lives don't have a hope."
Wendy Pedersen, on the other hand, argues that the problem of the Downtown Eastside is the "crappy" housing in the private SRO hotels, which forces low income people to use Hastings as their "living room" because their rooms are intolerable.
"Those people aren't living in social housing," said Pedersen. "The people you see on the street are living in (dumpy) hotels, and they're not spending their day at home because it's so terrible inside. So they're outside. Those people need their housing replaced and upgraded to real social housing, with their own bathroom and their own kitchen. And they will then have a new lease on life.
"They will have more energy to deal with health issues, to deal with volunteering, to deal with all those things they would love to do. And housing is a fundamental piece that's missing."
Pedersen thinks it's important to retain the Downtown Eastside as a low-income neighbourhood, because that's where poor people feel at home, with the social networks and the social services they require.
"It's a non-judgmental place to live if you're poor," she said. "You don't feel that constant stress of being less than other people. Some low income people can handle that. They grew up with that mindset, and they're OK … like, going by a fancy $12,000 couch store doesn't bug them. But for others, it's like a constant stress."
Campbell thinks social housing should be built all over the city and region. He fears concentrating social housing in the Downtown Eastside will create a slum.
"When I was mayor, we went to Chicago," said Campbell, who is now a senator in Ottawa. "I spent a day with (Chicago mayor) Daley. At that time, they were tearing down (housing projects). If you remember in the 1950s and '60s, they had this idea that as long as you build housing, then everything would be OK.
"And the housing was pretty well all (full of people living in) poverty and low income. It turned into these towers of ghettos with gangs and all the rest of it.
"My vision is more along the lines of what Art Phillips did in False Creek: mixed housing, everybody goes to school together, that type of thing."
As it turned out, Wendy Pedersen had to resign from the planning committee because of health problems before the study was finished. Her cohort Ivan Drury was kicked off the committee by Vancouver's powerful city manager, Penny Ballem.
"There was some contention about a presentation that was made at city hall early on that was noisy and disruptive," explained Michael Clague. "Ivan was associated with that. I don't know personally if he was the source of it."
After Drury and Pedersen left the planning committee, the Strathcona Residents Association decided to participate. But Strathcona's Fry is still thinks the planning process "has been largely token."
"A lot of the critical stuff we really haven't had the opportunity to dig deep into, such as housing and built form, public benefits and how the whole thing works," said Fry.
"And to be honest with you, those goalposts keep shifting. I just had a meeting where we were told the population projections have been revised to jump by about 7,000 people in the next 30 years. So it went from 28,000 to 35,000.
"That's troubling, because these are the kinds of details that are most critical to the plan. Because how we densify, and where we densify, has a huge impact on things like community amenity contributions and public benefits like parks. Not to mention the sense of livability and scale."
The 30-year plan for the Downtown Eastside is certainly ambitious. It attempts to address all sorts of issues, from protecting the area's stock of heritage buildings to reinvigorating Hastings as a retail street.
The condo part of the plan could develop quickly. Wall Financial is already marketing a 15-storey development at Campbell and Hastings.
One of Vancouver's biggest developers, Onni, purchased the old Brave Bull restaurant site at Clark and Hastings for $2 million. Lululemon founder Chip Wilson is believed to have purchased two development sites at 895 and 828 East Hastings for $2.55 million and $5.6 million, respectively.
A good example of the city's vision for the no-condo zone is a three-storey building at 49 East Hastings that houses the "street charity" United We Can, which offers low income people money in exchange for bottles they collect.
It is likely to get torn down for a new housing project by Atira, the social housing powerhouse that operates 12 of the 22 SRO hotels owned by the province in the city of Vancouver.
Janice Abbott of Atira said the new building will be 14 storeys high, have 198 units, and will feature the 60-per-cent social housing/40-per-cent market rental mix the local plan calls for in that part of Hastings. She expects the monthly rents to range from $375 (the welfare rate) to $850.
"There will be a mix of kinds of social housing," said Abbott.
"The market rental will be at the top of the building, and then there will be a mix of shelter rents and what are called housing income limit rents. On the main floor we're putting in a community-friendly grocery store — so an inexpensive grocery store."
Abbott said the construction budget is $18 million. Asked how much money Atira has of that at present, Abbott replied "at this point, zero."
"We're counting on donations," said Abbott, who is married to Shayne Ramsay, the CEO of BC Housing, which manages subsidized housing for the provincial government.
The Atira project would seem to be the prototype for what the city wants to do on Hastings. But Abbott said doing it without a lot of government funding is hard.
"I think it's difficult for this particular building to be precedent-setting," she said. "I can't begin to tell you the gymnastics we had to do to make it work financially — it was a difficult building to pull together. It's difficult to make this work, for this particular unit mix to be feasible from a financial perspective."
Nonetheless, Vancouver's general manager of planning and development, Brian Jackson, said there has been some development interest in the no-condo zone.
"We have already had three or four inquiries in this area by non-profits and developers who are interested in following through with the model that we've identified," Jackson said.
But real estate consultant Michael Geller doesn't see developers buying into the 60-per-cent social housing/40-per-cent rental concept.
"It's just not going to happen," said Geller.
"In recent years, with some of the incentives offered by the city, we have seen developers building rental housing. Ian Gillespie, Westbank, is building a rental project in the West End. But that's because they were allowed five times the permitted density, in order to make it viable.
"(But) you can't charge the same rents in the Downtown Eastside as you do on Comox Street. There may be some non-profits with charitable giving who can make these sorts of projects work. But private developers won't build new projects with this 60/40 split."
Judy McGuire worries the proposed condo-free zone may wind up being development-free.
"The problem is, the city can legislate (the 60/40 social housing mix) from now till doomsday, but they don't have the money to actually build any of that stuff," she said.
"The province isn't about to come up with the money to build any of that, they've said that pretty clearly. The worst case scenario I've heard is that it'll just sit there for 10 years and then a different council will basically let it go and it'll go to condos because they'll already have the height allowance in there."

Atle Selberg, (born June 14, 1917, Langesund, Nor.—died Aug. 6, 2007, Princeton, N.J., U.S.), Norwegian-born American mathematician who was awarded the Fields Medal in 1950 for his work in number theory. In 1986 he shared (with Samuel Eilenberg) the Wolf Prize.
Selberg attended the University of Oslo (Ph.D., 1943) and remained there as a research fellow until 1947. He then became a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, N.J., and a member of the faculty from 1949 until his retirement in 1987. In the 1990s he became a U.S. citizen.
Selberg was awarded the Fields Medal at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Cambridge, Mass., in 1950. His work in analytic number theory produced fundamental and deep results on the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. He also made contributions in the study of sieves—particularly the Selberg sieve—which are generalizations of Eratosthenes' method for locating prime numbers. In 1949 he gave an elementary (but by no means simple) proof of the prime number theorem, a result that had theretofore required advanced theorems from analysis. Many of Selberg's papers were published in Number Theory, Trace Formulas and Discrete Groups (1989). His Collected Papers was published in 1989 and 1991.

Recipe: Matzo Lasagna
Makes one 9-by-13-inch pan (8 to 10 servings)
This is a simple, kosher-for-Passover version of the classic Italian recipe, with layers of tomato sauce, cottage cheese and grated cheese nestled between layers of matzo.
Feel free to add fresh basil and/or parsley to the layers, if desired. Adapted from Erela Amon, a Tel Aviv cook.
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
21 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
5 to 6 plain matzos (7-by-7-inch squares)
1 pound regular or low-fat cottage cheese
8 ounces (2 packed cups) shredded cheese, such as a Mexican 4-cheese blend
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the inside of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking oil spay.
Stir the salt (to taste) and oregano into the crushed tomatoes. Spread a couple of spoonfuls of the tomatoes over the bottom of the baking dish.
Put just-boiled or very hot water in a container large enough to hold the matzo unbroken. Add 2 matzos and soak briefly, so the matzos become damp yet are still firm enough to hold their shape, shaking off any excess water. Transfer to the baking dish and arrange as one layer, breaking off pieces of the matzo to fit as needed.
Spoon one-third of the cottage cheese on top of the matzo layer, spreading it to the edges. Spread one-third of the tomato mixture to cover the cottage cheese. Scatter one-third of the shredded cheese over the tomato layer. Repeat with the matzos, cottage cheese and shredded cheese to build three layers, ending with the shredded cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes; the cheese on top will be golden brown. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.
NUTRITION: Per serving (based on 10, using low-fat cottage cheese): 200 calories, 14 g protein, 18 g carbohydrates, 8 g fat, 5 g saturated fat, 25 mg cholesterol, 520 mg sodium, 1 g dietary fiber, 2 g sugar

Master of Public Health Degree Now Available at Kent State
The Ohio Board of Regents has approved a Master of Public Health (M.P.H.) degree to be offered at Kent State University. Available through the university's new College of Public Health, the master's degree joins Kent State's offering of a Bachelor of Science in Public Health (B.S.P.H.) and an 18-credit hour undergraduate certificate in public health. The university plans to offer doctoral degrees, providing the full range of public health degrees.
Starting in fall 2010, Kent State will begin offering the Master of Public Health in five specializations: epidemiology, biostatistics, environmental health sciences, social and behavioral sciences, and health policy and management.
"Jobs in health care have been identified as the top careers for the next decade," said Kent State President Lester A. Lefton. "The demand is there, in Ohio and beyond. And, positions in public health are great paying and very rewarding. Kent State is uniquely positioned to deliver pathways to public health careers, whether you're a student pursuing a bachelor's for an entry-level position in a public health agency or a current member of the public health workforce who doesn't have formal training in public health. That's where our bachelor's, master's and certificate programs come in."
The College of Public Health at Kent State is Ohio's second college of public health. It was established to help meet the demonstrated state and national need for public health professionals. According to a February 2008 report by the Association of Schools of Public Health, America will need 250,000 more public health workers by 2020 – a well-educated, technologically savvy and multidisciplinary workforce that includes epidemiologists, biostatisticians, health educators, health program administrators, health policy analysts, public health physicians and nurses, and occupational and environmental health specialists.
This spring, 146 students are taking four public health courses through its Experimental Programs Division, and the university is accepting applications for its programs for fall 2010. The college has 17 full-time tenure track faculty members with the goal of 25 by 2012. Dr. Mark A. James, professor and vice chair of the Department of Tropical Medicine at Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, becomes the founding dean of Kent State's College of Public Health when he joins the university on July 1, 2010.
For more information on the College of Public Health, call 330-672-6500 or visit www.kent.edu/publichealth.

Brown, Hallie Q.
|SUSIE I. LANKFORD SHORTER -- January 4, 1859--February 27, 1912
In the progressive town of Terre Haute, Indiana, on January 4, 1859, a little daughter was born to the Pastor of the A. M. E. Church, Rev. Whitten Strange Lankford and his wife Clarrisa Carter Lankford.
The first of the five children was named Susie Isabel.
When Susie was fourteen years old her father took her to Wilberforce University that she might be instructed by Bishop Daniel A. Payne and the other noble educators there, whose ideals were high and their motives for teaching pure and unselfish.
Among the subjects Susie studied in the two years spent at Wilberforce were botany, rhetoric, French, music, algebra and arithmetic.
And it was the Professor who taught the last two subjects who afterward became her devoted husband.
Her school life was cut short by the death of her mother, and when only sixteen years old this young girl became a teacher at Rockville, Indiana, and later in Richmond.
It was at Christmas time 1878, in her second year as teacher in Richmond that Susie Lankford became the wife of Professor Joseph Proctor Shorter.
To them were born eight children, of whom three are living. They are Lee Shorter, Joseph Shorter, and Susie Pearl Shorter Smith. She was exceptionally kind and considerate, always lending a helping hand in church, state and community. The small shop known to-day as the College Inn, over which she presided, was filled with articles both gay and useful, so dear to the student heart.
She was not only a faithful wife and devoted mother in sickness and in health, but she was interested in all mankind and that interest was shown by her articles written for the "Ringwood Journal,"--by her poems, and by her joy in missionary and club work.
The paper she wrote and read before the gathering of friends in Jacksonville, Fla., at Bishop Payne's eightieth birthday celebration was published as a booklet and named "Heroines of African Methodism."
This, and the poem used as the "Ohio Federation Song," are the best known of her writings.
She was not perfect, we know of none who are.
She was not renowned. But like her dear husband, she had so many fine qualities that not only her children rise up and call her blessed, but the many students to whom she sent a bowl of soup, or a dainty meal when they were ill; and the little children of the neighborhood she lovingly gathered into her home to give free kindergarten lessons and the hosts of visitors who year after year found cordial hospitality at this Shorter home, all would have joined in the resolutions from the Young Men's Christian Association at her funeral when the soul of "Mother Shorter" as they tenderly called her, had peacefully passed from a suffering body to that happy land, where all is joy and perfect understanding.
It was on the 27th day of February, 1912, soon after her 53d birthday, that Susie Lankford Shorter went to that other world to join her beloved husband who had died two years before.
But to their children, and others who really loved them, it is but yesterday. For their sweet, inspiring spirits still abide with us.

Ivory Coast returns stampede bodies to families
An Ivory Coast official says the government has begun handing over the bodies of those killed in a New Year's stampede to their families.
Serges Kanon, communications chief for the Ministry of Solidarity, said Wednesday the first set of families retrieved their dead and were also given roughly $2,000 per family to help with funeral costs. The ceremony was presided over by Solidarity Minister Anne Desiree Ouloto.
He said such ceremonies would continue until all the bodies are returned to their families.
The stampede killed 64 people who were trampled after a New Year's fireworks display in the commercial capital of Abidjan.
A government probe has blamed the tragedy on an array of factors including darkness, unofficial tree trunk barricades and a shortage of police officers.

I have a question to find the equations of the tangent line and the normal line to the curve at the given point. I can find the equation for the tangent line easily but I am not sure what a normal line is and there is no example that I can find.
$y=x^4 + 2e^x$ at (0,2)
From that I do see that if I plug in 0 I get 2 as a result so my guess was that if I plug in another number I can use that to get the slope but it gave an incorrect answer.

The Herald Sun reports:
Sheriff's deputies recorded the event but did not intervene as a protester climbed a ladder and slipped a yellow, bungie-like cord around the soldier's head and arm and a group pulled the cord....Protesters are seen kicking the wrecked object, an image of the soldier, who doesn't seem to have been a particular individual but a generic example of — as the monument put it — "the boys who wore the gray." The crowd — "more than 100 people" — is said to have circled the monument, chanting "No Trump! No KKK! No fascist USA!"
The Herald Sun names 5 groups that it says took part: Triangle People's Assembly, Workers World Party, Industrial Workers of the World, Democratic Socialists of America, and the antifa. It quotes a woman — Eva Panjwani — that it says is from the Workers World Party Durham:
"Tactics are changing, which means that our strategies need to change, our unity needs to escalate and our demands to fight back and resist domestic terror needs to escalate"...I think that's a terrible mistake. Just as violence on the right captures the headlines and great stress is put on the need to single out right-wing extremists and to criticize the President for condemning violence on "all sides," you think it's a good idea for the left to call attention to its willingness to get destructive?
Alissa Ellis, of the Workers World Party Durham branch that was a participant in the Charlottesville protest, said people need to embrace multiple tactics because that is what kept her safe. "We need to shun passive, white liberalism" that elevates whites voices over black and brown voices, she said.Do I understand that correctly? Is she saying the nonviolence approach to activism privileges white people and violent tactics are needed to be inclusive toward nonwhite people? Isn't that racist?
Most important: Why did law enforcement do nothing? ADDED: That is, nothing but make a video. It's as if they're journalists and have an ethic against becoming part of the news.

The Social Work Internship Program in the Department of Psychiatry is affiliated with the following graduate schools of social work:
The program only accepts second year students who have a strong interest in clinical social work. The settings within the Department of Psychiatry include the following:
Social Work interns are placed in one primary unit of service during their field placement. There is some opportunity to spend some time in other units of service as well in order to broaden the learning experience. There are weekly social work intern seminars in which all aspects of psychiatry are presented by different professionals, Grand Rounds sponsored by the Department of Psychiatry. Interns are expected to participate in treatment planning conferences and staff meetings. The social work intern will be exposed to the different roles that social workers play in the department, ranging from discharge planning, case management and providing individual/group psychotherapy. It is a setting which provides a dynamic learning experience.
The internship program welcomes students who are bilingual and bi-cultural.
Prospective interns who wish to apply to the program need to speak to their field placement advisors about their interest in the placement. Internships are arranged with the involvement and input of the school faculty only.
If the applicant is deemed appropriate he/she will meet with Michele Kerner, ACSW, LCSW, Chief of Social Work initially, and then with the clinician who would be the direct supervisor at a later date. Social Work interns must be additionally screened for security clearance through the Department of Academic Affairs. A physical exam and TB test for interns is also required, and this must be done by the intern's private physician prior to beginning placement.

Did I miss the part where they actually introduced these girls? I mean, I know the Olympics wasn't long ago, but we're used to seeing them all in skintight leotards and the same skinned-back hairstyle. It's not like we're at the point where there's full facial recognition when they're dressed like people, especially on a really, really wide shot.
That is, except for Gabrielle Douglas.
While I thought her participation in Alicia Keys' performance was kind of unnecessary and inexplicable (also inexplicable: Keys calling herself "Girl On Fire" – did this not seem to anyone else like it had kind of ALREADY BEEN USED?) , I didn't care. Because I was too busy mentally rubbing the noses of the other four in it.
They were mean to her, I think, at the Olympics. "Not Overly Warm" might be a generous way to put it. And they can claim that all the attention is because she won the gold medal, and that she would've been asked to lead the Pledge Of Allegiance at the DNC because of that …
…but I'd like to believe it's because the whole world saw Gabrielle Douglas getting meangirled and was like "you know what? Let's get her in here. I…don't really care for that. She should come and hang out for a while."
I can get down with continuing to scrub salt in mean girls' wounds. I've been reading gymnastic bios lately, I know most of those girls' careers are over, but I kind of don't care. Does this make me unstable, that I relish revenge on a 17-year-old? Oh well.
I'm about to be even meaner – I hated all their dresses but hers, too. See ya!

BMO Financial Group merged financial advisors from Harris Bank of Chicago and M&I Bank of Milwaukee to form BMO Harris Financial Advisors on Wednesday. The group includes 165 financial advisors serving clients in 11 states.
The U.S. advisors have about $2.5 billion in discretionary assets under management and more than $9 billion in brokerage assets, according to BMO Financial, which is based in Toronto.
"Consolidating our broker-dealer business into a single entity will enable us to focus on servicing mass-affluent retail investors looking for the best minds to address their financial planning and wealth-management needs," said Mike Miroballi (left), president of BMO Harris Financial Advisors in Chicago, in an interview with AdvisorOne. (Mass-affluent clients are defined as those with $250,000 to $1 million in investable assets.)
The merging of Harris Bank and M&I Bank's broker-dealers follows the acquisition of M&I Bank by BMO in July 2011. This year, Miroballi says, the private bank, retail bank and commercial bank operations will be integrated as well.
BMO Harris Bank has more than 650 branches in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Minnesota, Nevada, Arizona and Florida. "M&I was in Wisconsin, Indiana and other parts of the Midwest and West that we weren't and vice-versa," Miroballi said.
"The advisors focus on financial planning and wealth management, and they offer services such as asset management, insurance, income planning, education planning and retirement planning," Miroballi continued. "They all use Pershing for clearing work, back-office solutions and financial advisor technology platform, the Albridge wealth-reporting platform and Envestnet's end-to-end money management platform for proposal generation, investment management and performance reporting."
According to BMO Harris, its advisors use in-house asset-allocation strategies that incorporate third-party managers and proprietary funds for clients. The mutual-fund offerings range from the BMO Managed Asset Allocation Program (MAAP) to BMO Strategic Fund Portfolios, which is among the first bank-sponsored all-exchange traded fund (ETF) managed money solutions in the industry, the organization says.
Growth Prospects
"What drives our expansion is what is driving BMO's bank expansion. As that footprint grows, we will grow with it geographically," Miroballi says. BMO Harris Bank is most likely to boost its branch network in Arizona, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Minnesota and other states where it now has operations, he notes.
"We are absolutely going to expand our recruiting efforts and are looking to grow our number of advisors," he added.
The 165 advisors now part of its operations have the Series 7 and 65 designations, and many also have the CFP, chartered financial consultant (ChFC), chartered life underwriter (CLU) and other designations, as well as insurance licenses.
"We really support advanced our advisors training and getting designations. We have a formal reimbursement program and consider this a key strategy," Miroballi said.
On Friday, Harris Private Bank released a report that a slight increase in U.S. income levels and stagnant spending in June suggested "Americans are using their earnings to increase their savings and pay down household debt" and marked "a reversal from consumer trends seen in the last decade."
According to Chief Investment Officer Jack Albin, the trend towards saving more and spending less could "have a negative impact on the growth of the economy."

Funeral Service For Amiri Baraka In Newark N.J.
I came to New York Monday to support my play,"The Final Version," a work that touches upon the on again
Ishmael Reed, left, and Amiri Baraka. Tennessee Reed
By Ishmael Reed
off again relationship between the white and black New York left from the 1930s to the 1965. My director, Rome Neal, directed five of Amiri Baraka's plays throughout the years, yet the obituaries, some of them mean-spirited and ignorant, confine the playwright's creative output to 1964, when he wrote "Dutchman." So why do the obituaries say that Baraka was through after 1964, even though he continued to write plays, poetry and publish books around the world?
I published two of his books, "Sidney Poet Heroical," a devastating satire about black Hollywood and "Un Poco Low Coup," a book of his cartoons. Baraka's work is considered "short lived" by some because he exposed the attitude of the mainstream toward black writers, that no matter how technically adept you may be with craft, it's what you say that counts. What he said offended the members of what he would call "the ruling class." He used his talent to write scathing indictments of racism and the capitalist system.
The Black Arts Movement, which he founded with poet Askia Touré and the late Larry Neal, was considered "short lived" because the media rely upon scouts to tell them what's happening among blacks as though they were members of a nation that has its own ambassadors,whom the media rely upon to tell them what the drums they hear mean. Like the proletariat arts movement of the 1930s, the establishment wishes that the Black Arts movement would just get lost. Though I get associated with the movement, I was living in Chelsea at the time, writing my first novel, a sci-fi surrealist take on what I had experienced in Newark as a twenty something editor of a newspaper there. I had problems with some of its actors. So did Amiri. But this movement did more to expand a black readership than its critics.
Amiri Baraka and I clashed. Often. He once called me a "jet plane flying lying n—–." My response was that when Amiri, a communist, gave up his American Express card, I'd start riding the bus. We set a standard for young people with our arguments. They were conducted by using poetry and wit. Not once was an AK-47 employed. But as the years went by, we found ourselves members of the curmudgeon club. In fact, one of his final essays about corruption in Newark appears in the latest issue of my magazine, Konch. His comments about "Django Unchained" will appear in a forthcoming anthology that I have edited about film. Our final correspondence took place on Nov.17.
One obituary called Baraka "polarizing," which means that he contributed to something they market called "The Racial Divide," when many of his patrons and supporters were white. Many Europeans are white, and they treated him as they would treat a great writer. Broadway with its parade of black servants, prostitutes, and black bogeymen wouldn't stage his post "Dutchman" plays, but a musical for which he wrote the book was staged in Paris a few years ago. Even though the obituaries refer to him as an antisemite because of the controversy around his poem "Somebody Blew Up America," he has two brilliant daughters whose mother is Jewish, the author Hettie Cohen. When I participated in a writers conference held in Israel a few years ago, the organizer expressed regrets that Baraka couldn't attend.
All of his children are achievers including Ras, who is a Newark councilman. His daughter Dominique, whom he had with the great poet Diane Di Prima, is a first rate television host. His beautiful partner Amina Baraka is a poet in her own right.
Amiri Baraka was controversial because his was a perspective that was considered out of fashion during this post race ghost dance, the attitude that says that because we have a black president, racism is no longer an issue, when the acrimonious near psychotic reaction to his election only shows the depth of it. In one of two books of mine that were published in Montreal, I argue that Barack Obama is not a Muslim. He's more like the catholic priest in "The Exorcist." Drawing all of the demons of American racism to the surface. Was Amiri Baraka an agit-prop writer? What was left out of the indolent obituaries that I read was that he was a two-time American Book Award winner.
Baraka's artistic peers thought enough of his talent to admit him to the exclusive The American Academy of Arts and Letters. Maybe they recognized that Amiri Baraka was the kind of writer who comes along once in a generation or so. I once said that he did for the English syntax what Monk did with the chord. He was an original.
Ishmael Reed's play,"The Final Version" is on this weekend at the Nuyorican Poet's Cafe. (212-780-9386). It closes next week.

If the phone rings and the caller says he represents the IRS, be suspicious.
That's the warning from federal authorities, who on Thursday said a nationwide phone scam has stolen $1 million from thousands of unsuspecting people.
The impostor claims to be an Internal Revenue Service representative and tells "intended victims they owe taxes and must pay using a pre-paid debit card or wire transfer," an IRS inspector general office said.
"The scammers threaten those who refuse to pay with arrest, deportation or loss of a business or driver's license."
The IRS has received more than 20,000 reports about the scam.
J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration, called it "the largest scam of its kind that we have ever seen."
According to the inspector general, IRS officials typically first reach out by mail rather than phone, and don't demand immediate payment by debit card, credit card or wire transfer.
The IRS said people who receive such calls or other suspicious requests should contact the IRS.
Tax-related phone scams are among the "dirty dozen" fraud techniques the IRS warned about earlier this tax season. It also warned of phishing emails, preparer fraud and claims a preparer can offer "free money."

Duration: 365 days
He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God… John 1:10-12
The most recent edition of the famous prayer manual, Operation World, was published in November 2010 and was quick to highlight as a global trend, "…The rise in levels of persecution – especially for Christians." The editors of the Operation World explained why:
"The end of the European colonial era, the end of Christianity's status as state religion in most of the West and the resurgence of religious sentiments globally, especially fundamentalism, all mean that Christians generally no longer operate from a position of power or privilege. Christians are subject to persecution in much of the world. Evangelicals are subject to even more due to their proselytism and commitment to the uniqueness of Christ. The presence of persecution and hardship in the life of the Church appears to be normative in Scripture; contexts where persecution does not exist at all should be as much a cause for concern as places where it is intense."
Open Doors' Dr. Ron Boyd-MacMillan concludes:
In the end, the rise of persecution is paradoxically for Christians something to protest and to celebrate, for as a Beijing house church pastor says, "The church is always persecuted when it does something right…it shows Christ to a world that rejects him." Persecution is the continual replaying of John chapter one verses ten and eleven: "[Jesus] came into the very world he created, but the world didn't recognize him. He came to his own people, but even they rejected him." And so in the challenging words of a Palestinian pastor, "Every Christian must rejoice to be persecuted, and fight for Christ to be recognized in the midst of suffering, for suffering is the gift by which we see our need of Him who came for us and loves us."
RESPONSE: As Christians, persecution is not something to avoid but to celebrate.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to rejoice when persecution comes my way – whether mild, medium or hot! And help me to fight for Christ to be recognized in the midst of the suffering.
