Every age, culture, and group has its own biases and particular idolatries. The Christians of the future might look back to us late-modern Western evangelicals, and point to our individualism, our impatient obsession with the present moment, our tendency toward introspection, and our theological illiteracy. Perhaps they will think of us as being just as syncretistic and compromised as we imagine the first century Gnostics to have been.
Spending some time with those who've gone before can often help us seek and destroy our cultural and historical blind spots. They will have looked at issues with different eyes, touched by different faults and failures, and from a very different perspective- almost from a different world in some cases. Yet despite changing trends and fashionable sins, and even contradictory ideas of reality, Christian prayer has not changed. What can we learn by listening back over the centuries as our fathers and mothers in the Church pray? What do they have to teach us about something as fundamental and universal as speaking with the Living God?
We take as our guide a great man of prayer: the Puritan Matthew Henry (1662-1714).
Prayer begins with God
For Matthew Henry in his book A Method for Prayer, it is a given that in coming to prayer we are
composed into a very reverent serious frame, our thoughts gathered in, and that that is within us, charged in the Name of the great God, carefully to attend the solemn and awful service that lies before us, and to keep close to it, we must with a fixed attention and application of mind, and an active lively faith, set the Lord before us
In a Christian culture that values informality and tends to approach prayer casually, these words are a good rejoinder. Henry wants us to take seriously the fact that we are coming to a holy and awesome Majesty. Rather than simply understand this and hold it in mind when we pray, we ought to affirm these truths in our prayer as we address the Lord:
Holy, holy, holy Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come O thou who are the true God, the living God and the everlasting King, the Lord our God, who is one Lord
Letting these things go unsaid will lead to letting them slip from our thoughts altogether. The great danger is that we will soon take for granted the inestimable privilege that we are not only admitted, but invited and encouraged to draw nigh to God in prayer. To remind us of the great grace that calls us to enter, Henry tells us we must come in the name of the great High Priest, who is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, calling on the Father to behold our shield, look upon the face of thine anointed, in whom that hast by a voice from heaven declared thyself to be well pleased; Lord, be well pleased with us in him.
Prayer means humility
The white hot holiness of God exposes our own great sinfulness. Henry says we must next take shame to ourselves, which is our due, and humble ourselves before him in the sense of our own sinfulness and vileness . In other words, our very next move ought to be confession.
If thou, Lord, shouldst mark iniquities, O Lord who should stand! But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared; with three there is mercy, yea, with out God there is plenteous redemption .
It is good for us to acknowledge thoroughly before him everything in us that should cause him to burn us up; sins injustice, foolishness, unprofitableness, deceitfulness, offensiveness, and the damage it does to ourselves. Things we have done, failed to do, said, and thought.
Henry suggests we think about the way we sin more when we know more of good, sin hypocritically, sin in the face of Gods mercy, ignored the warnings of scripture, and sin in spite of our own efforts to stop. We may begin to wonder if hes being a bit heavy on sin, but wed do well to think about the climate of our own age which makes light of sin and encourages us to be much more blasé about our actions. That which is at the bottom of it all, is the evil heart of unbelief in us which inclines us to depart from the living God.
Once we have felt the weight of our unbelief and rottenness before God, Henry encourages us that prayerful confession of sin is never without an eye on the mercy of God on which we rely as we come before him.
Thou has said it, and hast confirmed it with an oath, that thou hast no pleasure in the death of sinners, but rather that we should turn and live: Therefore we will rend our hearts and turn to the Lord God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness O that our heads were waters, and our eyes fountains of tears, that we might weep day and night for our transgressions, and might in such a manner sow in tears as that at last we may reap in joy
Prayer relies on God
Having opened the wounds of sin, both the guilt of it, and its remainders in it, we must next seek unto God for the remedy, for healing and help And we must now affect our hearts with a deep sense of the need we have of those mercies which we pray for
Next, we come to ask God for the good things we need, knowing that he is our provider. Henry reminds us that we are not telling God what to do since he knows us better than we know ourselves, but that prayer is our opportunity to open our wants and desires, and then refer ourselves to his wisdom and goodness.
Coming with a mere shopping list, or ultimatum misunderstands the nature of prayer. We should come with humble reliance, seeing prayer as the way he has appointed, of fetching mercy from him and by faith plead hid promise with him. Similarly,
We do not think that we shall be heard for our much speaking; for our Father knows what things we have need of before we ask him; but our Master hath told us that, whatsoever we ask the Father in his name, he will give it us.
Notice that Henry impresses on us the Trinitarian nature of prayer: we come to the Father for the good that we need in the name of the Son. He encourages us to affirm this as our foundation for all our asking and petitioning; that we may have peace with God, know his blessing, be aware of his presence, feel assurance of our forgiveness and acceptance, be protected from Satans temptations, that we would be kept from sinning, that people would come to Christ, that the Church would continue to grow, for our own discipleship and sanctification, for faith, for the fear of God, for brotherly love, for humility, for contentment and peace, for hope and perseverance, that we would be honest hard workers, for our growth in wisdom, for help in our trouble, that God would provide everything we need for living each day.
Prayer is thanksgiving
When we have a picture of our helplnessness before the Lord, and the way we rely entirely on his goodness, we see that we have a great deal to pray about. We also begin to see how much we are blessed, protected, provided for, and loved. Its common for Christians to confess they take for granted Gods goodness- its another thing to consciously spend time in specific thanksgiving.
Henry encourages us to be specific, but he also thinks we should start broadly: praising God for his creation and especially the unique place he has given to humans.
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with his benefits Many a time we have eaten and been filled, and have delighted ourselves in thy great goodness.
If you struggle to think of things to say thank you for, simply remember the best meals youve ever eaten and thank the Lord for them! If you have never been forced to go without food, have a home to call your own, a job or education you should consider yourself one of the most richly blessed people in history.
We ought to praise God for our salvation: the grace he has showed to humanity since the creation, the incarnation of his Son, Jesus death on the cross for sin, the resurrection and ascension, Jesus intercession for us and his expected return. We ought to praise God for his gifts of the Holy Spirit, of the scriptures, the ordinances (sacraments), of teachers and pastors. We should praise God for the continuation of Christianity in the world, for martyrs and role models that have gone before us, for the communion of saints we have now and expect to have in the new creation, for his Spirits work that changes us, for the forgiveness of our sin, for answers to prayer, for his faithfulness.
Shopping lists are not a good way to ask for things from the Lord, but listing his blessings and gifts is always a profitable exercise! If you have never tried it, write out 150 things that you thank God for- you will soon feel like you need far more paper.
Prayer is selfless
Prayer is selfless in that it relies totally on the external grace and goodness of God. It is also selfless in that we are called to pray
not only with, but for others And we must not that when we are in this part of prayer, we may let fall our fervency, and be more indifferent, because we ourselves are not immediately concerned in it, but rather let a holy fire of love, both God and man here, make our devotion yet more warm and lively.
So Henry next guides us through praying for the lost world, the spread of the gospel and growth of the church, the conversion of the Jewish people, the persecuted church, the conversion of the enemies of the gospel, for our own country and surrounding nations, for the monarch and leaders of the country, for the young and old, rich and poor, for our enemies and our friends.
As prayer draws to a close, Henry tells us we should fix our eyes on Christ, Now the Lord direct our hearts into the love of God, and into patient waiting for Christ. We should acknowledge the weakness of our prayers, and recommend ourselves to the conduct, protection, and government of the divine grace. He suggests a number of doxologies praising the Triune God,
Now to God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins, hat he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father, be glory for ever and ever.
Finally, he tells us it is proper to end by saying the Lords prayer.
Prayer is biblical and theological
One of the things that may have struck you as you have read excerpts of Matthew Henrys prayers is the way they are saturated with scripture. Throughout A Method for Prayer all the words he suggests are without exception drenched in the language, truth, and beauty of the Bible. Here was a man who knew the power of praying the words of Gods promises; owning them by vocally affirming faith in Christ before the Father. Yet more than simply praying the words of scripture by rote, his praying is itself steered and informed by what the Bible reveals about God, reality, humanity, and salvation. This is surely a challenge to modern evangelical culture where extempore prayer tends to be a staple.
More than a hundred years before Henry was born, John Bradford wrote a series of Daily Prayers and Meditations. These are brilliant examples of the way our daily routine of prayer can feed directly on the truth of scripture. Bradford simply walks us through the day, and gives us example prayers and meditations which are orientated around the spiritual truths embedded in the creation. The idea is to use the regular events of a normal day to drive us to prayer and reflection on Christ. As soon as you wake up in the morning and the sunlight streams through the window, Bradford suggests praying like this:
O Lord, thou greatest and most true Light, whence this light of the day and of the sun does spring! O Light, which does lighten every man that comes into this world! O Light, which knows no night nor evening, but are always a midday, most clear and fair, without whom all is most dark darkness by whom all are most resplendent Lighten mine eyes, O Lord! That I sleep not in death, lest mine enemies say, I have prevailed against him.
When youre stumbling around the room pulling on your socks, Bradford suggests you meditate on the way Christ clothes us in his righteousness, and gives this scorching example of a getting dressed prayer,
O Christ, clothe me with thine own self, that I may be so far from making provision for my flesh to fulfill the lusts of ... Be thou unto me a garment to warm me from catching the cold of this world if thou be away from me, dear Lord, all things will forthwith be unto me cold, weak, dead, &c. But if thou art with me, all things will be warm, lively, fireside &c. Grant therefore, that as I compass this my body with this coat, so thou would clothe me wholly, but especially my soul, with thine own self. Put upon me as the elect of God, mercy, meekness, love, peace, &c.
As we go through the day, Bradford asks us to meditate on the way we appear before God rather than thinking about what other people might be thinking about our clothes! Moving on to eating a meal, Bradford gives us a great model for saying grace:
This is a wonderful mystery of thy work, O Maker and Governor of the world, that thou dost sustain the lives of men and beasts with these meats! Surely this power is neither in the bread nor food, but in thy will and word, by which word all things live and have their being I therefore heartily pray thee, O most liberal Lord and faithful Father, that as thou by meat through thy word dost minister life to these our bodies, even so by the same word with thy grace do thou quicken our souls; that both in soul and body we may please thee till this our mortal body shall put on immortality, and we shall need no more any other food, but thee only, who then wilt be all in all.
Taste and see that the Lord is good! A good theology of food should transform the way we say grace and enjoy our mealtimes. They could even become an evangelistic opportunity.
As the day draws to a close, Bradford has us meditating on the setting sun: we dont mind it going down over the horizon since we know it will soon rise again, and this ought to equip us to face death with the hope of the resurrection. And while the sun rises and sets, the light of Christ is constant. While were undressing for bed, we ought to be thinking of putting-off the old man of sin; while were pulling our bedclothes on, we should meditate on the way sleep points us to death,
As you are not afraid to enter into your bed, and to dispose yourself to sleep; so be not afraid to die, but rather prepare yourself for it; think that now you are nearer your end by one day's journey, than you were in the morning.
Finally, as your eyelids are heavy and sleep is beginning to take over, he gives us a final prayer for sweet, happy dreams of the new creation:
O Lord Jesus Christ, my Watchman and Keeper, take me to thy care; grant that while my body is sleeping my mind may watch in thee, and be made joyful by some sight of that celestial and heavenly life wherein thou art the King and Prince, together with the Father and the Holy Ghost.
Thats how to spend the day in prayer! Henry and Bradford remind us that speaking with the Living God is the lifeblood of Christian experience. As we approach the Father through the Son in the power of the Spirit, we are exercising all that our salvation has brought: fellowship with the Triune God, welcomed as the Fathers beloved children in Christ. As the poet James Montgomery wrote,
Prayer is the Christian's vital breath, the Christian's native air,
his watchword at the gates of death; he enters heaven with prayer.

The weather was perfect and the art exceptional as record crowds descended on the Village of Lewiston last weekend for the holding of the 47th annual Lewiston Art Festival, presented by the Lewiston Council on the Arts.
Highlights included two Lewiston-Porter High School student teams taking second- and third-place honors, respectively, in the KeyBank Chalk Walk Competition held Saturday; and throughout the weekend the juried festival featured an impressive array of eye-catching pieces - numbering more than 20,000 and in various genres - much to the delight of visitors.
Add to that some entertaining street musicians, exceptional food offerings and artistic flare in abundance, and it's easy to see how many rate this festival as among the best of its kind on the Western New York scene. (photos by Wayne Peters)

At the same time, he is following his grand plan to become an international star. Global stardom is how A K describes the goal that he and his band Gogol Bordello are pursuing with their particular brand of boisterous gypsy punk.

The Cleveland Browns own two first-round draft picks, but they might be angling to gain a third.
General manager Ray Farmer has talked to at least one team in the bottom of the first round about trading up from the Browns' second-round slot (35th overall), according to TheMMQB.com's Peter King.
Build your own mock draft:
Make your best guesses here for all 32 picks of the first round of the NFL Draft and you could win a trip to attend the 2014 NFL Kickoff game. Play now ...
King suggests the Browns could be looking to jump ahead of the Houston Texans, who lead off Round 2.
The Texans might be in line to draft a quarterback at No. 33 overall -- assuming they go defense with their first pick. The Browns might want to sneak ahead of Houston before Day 1 ends to grab a specific signal-caller.
Farmer probing the possibility of trading back into the first round indicates he might prefer to go with a position player at the No. 4 and 26 slots -- most assumed the Browns would take a quarterback, their biggest need, at one of those two positions.
Who might be open for business late in Round 1?
King suggests the Seahawks, with the 32nd pick, might be willing to drop back three spots. Seattle general manager John Schneider is pinching pennies, with extensions for Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman coming in the next year.
Given Seattle's penchant for snagging late-round talent, picking up a fourth-round pick (Cleveland has two) to move down a couple spots and save about $350,000 per season on the cap sounds a lot like a Seahawks-type of move.

Hi guys,
So i guess this would be the last time I'll be here in FileIce.
I had already PAIDout my frozen balance from like 1-2 years ago using Premium Credits to reach minimum $50.
I can remember the time that I was making $70+ a day here while I was a student, and it was the best feeling ever especially when I'm walking from campus thinking how much I made. It made me think that F*ck school, i need to access internet immediately to check my account that I would even leave my Troops. LOL
Well, FileIce just made one of my dream came true which is a Full Band studio equipments. :D
FileIce has been my first stepping stone to Internet Marketing. I wish I could stay longer but the method I was using here was already saturated.
Thank You for everything FileIce.

The Lady Bisons closed out the inaugural Lady Bisons Classic at Draper Diamond with an 8-0 win over Evansville Sunday afternoon. It was the first time the two schools had met in a softball game.
The Lady Bisons are 16-1 and have won their last 14 straight games. This was the 10th shutout of the season for the Lady Bisons. They set a program record with 17 last season.
Lipscomb collected 13 hits on the day. Second baseman Abby Keese went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI. Catcher Mollie Mitchell was 2-for-3. Shortstop Courtney Billington also added two hits.
Lauren Dortwegt, Christen Campbell, Caroline Mason, Mackenzie Tucker, and Whitney Kiihnl each had one hit.
In the seventh inning, junior Megan Rottler hit her first home run of her colligate career over the left field fence.
"I'm extremely excited for Megan," Lipscomb coach Kristin Ryman said. "She works hard every day. She's one of those players that don't get enough credit on the field. The home run was a huge confidence builder for her and definitely made a statement in everybody's mind."
Sophomore Whitney Kiihnl started the game on the mound for the Lady Bisons and held Evansville scoreless. She gave up two hits over four innings and struck out nine of the 15 batters she faced.
Freshman Ali Watson relieved Kiihnl in the fifth inning, giving up two hits but keeping the shutout.
"It was another great performance from Whitney today," Ryman said. "I could not be more proud of Ali coming in. She's had three appearances now and she's yet to give up a run."
The Lady Bisons play Tuesday as they travel to Cookeville to take on Tennessee Tech for a doubleheader starting at 3 p.m.

Oh my, I have entered into the big 3-0 birthday week, and what doesn't that have one thinking about? I did get a stunning set of fancy French skillets from my younger sister as an early gift, which of course, gets me thinking that my little sister is older than I am, but I digress (as I type with The Muppet Show's first season playing on dvd). As usual, I have multiple google docs open whenever I sit down at my laptop. There's the long scroll down the now-70-something-days-in 100 Days list, Heartichoke cocktails and whatnot, Portlanding visits, travel plans, VVC tasks, Vegan MoFo brainstorming and a couple of other projects if I type out will never ever happen. Oh, how sweet (not having a soul sucking day job) it is.
About those days….they continue to delight, even with the last spurts of my college-era rice cooker, cracking of my teapot and sheer breaking of my not-so-glorious food processor within a few days' span. I decided on one of the three replacements already and it arrived early today! Maturity?
Let's get with it.
I'm not ashamed to say that on a very busy day , the following was the only homemade dish:
I finally picked up a classic Bundt pan from a thrift store over this past weekend – another mature decision, right? Sure.
I adore trying every variety of choi I can get my hands on from farmers markets and Asian grocery stores.
Test kitchen, test kitchen
The versatility of grits really brought them into my quick-meal repertoire during this project.
It was really devastating to see that rice cooker die of old age. It happened in the middle of the above dinner and I had to rescue the rice and finish it in, get this – a pot on the stove. How…liberating? My dear friend had given the little rice cooker to me as a gift when I was just learning to cook for myself – in the step above ramen noodles way – during our first summer after college. We had both graduated early and were living in Boston; me in cockroach infested apartment in East Cambridge and her in the Fens, and the rice cooker would somehow be one of the very few things that made it across the country on my move a few months later.
The surprisingly decadent chia pudding recipe was modified from Dreena's Plant Powered Kitchen. Psst, chia seeds have (finally) arrived at Trader Joe's!
The following two dishes are from the Vida Vegan HQ test kitchen.
The next day was the first day of the International Food Blogging Conference, which ironically, stole my time, and fortunately, had vegan options now and then.
Speaking of Departure, some friends and I stopped by for their uniquely vegan-friendly happy hour the other day, and photos and thoughts will follow soon.
IFBC afternoon break!
More updates in store! As always, follow along with @jdfunks on Instagram.
I will admit, I did goof with jumping into this project, as I'll be heading to Seattle tomorrow with my girlfriend and then on a I-must-leave-the-country-for-my-birthday trip with its own loose planning, so things are going to get wild. To be continued!

Albert Baldeo, a prominent Guyanese community leader and a Democratic district leader representing Richmond Hill and Ozone Park, was charged with four counts of mail fraud and obstruction of justice.
Each count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
Authorities allege that during his unsuccessful campaign for City Council in 2010 Baldeo tried to scam the city's matching funds program administered through the Campaign Finance Board, which gives candidates $6 for every $1 donated to their campaign.
Baldeo, however, is accused of fabricating contributions by withdrawing funds from his own bank account and funneling the money to his campaign via straw donors.
According to the criminal complaint, Baldeo would provide money orders to people, who would then "donate" the money in their own name, but never reimbursed Baldeo for the contributions.
Baldeo allegedly sought matching funds for $15,000 in fake campaign contributions, which would have resulted in him receiving $90,000 in taxpayer money through the program.
"Albert Baldeo was so focused on securing a position with the New York City Council that he was willing to break the law to increase his chances, including engaging in a scheme to circumvent campaign finance laws by funneling his own money through straw donors," said Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara.
According to investigators, when the F.B.I. began to unravel the scheme, Baldeo allegedly strong-armed straw donors in an attempt to force them to lie to agents.
"Mr. Baldeo told straw donors to lie to our agents and in some cases threatened and intimidated others in a vain attempt to derail the FBI's investigation," said Mary Galligan, acting assistant director of the F.B.I.
In a prepared statement, Baldeo's lawyer, Henry Mazurek of Clayman & Rosenberg, said that his client was being unfairly targeted in a criminal case because he was not a favored candidate of the Queens County Democratic Party.
"The government's crusade against Mr. Baldeo is particularly vindictive and discriminatory given that past history reveals that more sinister conduct alleged against establishment candidates often resulted in civil administrative proceedings, and not criminal cases," he said.
Baldeo, Albert Complaint

The Weekend Rent: Steven Soderbergh's Five Final 'Effects'
"The Weekend Rent" offers quick-hit suggestions of what to watch at home to get psyched for new releases in theaters, on Fridays.
The new film Side Effects may be the final movie by director Steven Soderbergh, who has reportedly said that he will retire. Side Effects stars Jude Law as a psychiatrist who prescribes a drug called Ablixa to treat Emily's (Rooney Mara) anxiety disorder only afterwards to have the woman wake up in her apartment with a murdered person. Was it intentional or is Emily a victim of his medical treatment? Find out in theaters, where Side Effects is currently playing.
Soderbergh burst onto the scene with 1989's festival favorite Sex, Lies and Videotape and has directed acclaimed films such as Erin Brockovich, Traffic and the Ocean's Eleven trilogy. Since the 50-year-old director has reportedly said he will retire from the big screen, we decided to have a final-countdown weekend with Soderbergh's five films before Side Effects.
First up is 2009's The Girlfriend Experience starring then-active porn actress Sasha Grey as a high-end Manhattan call girl who is interviewed by a journalist about her work and personal life while her clients spend more time worrying about the looming financial crisis than her services. This experimental drama featuring too many long shots divided critics and audiences—some thought it was an honest exploration of human nature while others found it pretentious and odd. What do you think?
Although The Girlfriend Experience wasn't one that everyone wanted, you'll find little argument that The Informant! is the work of genius. Released the same year as The Girlfriend Experience, The Informant! stars Matt Damon as real-life whistleblower Mark Whitacre, who was integral in the lysine price-fixing conspiracy of the mid-1990s. Damon is brilliant as Whitacre worms his way out of situation after situation until he digs himself into a hole so deep that he has no other option except to be buried in it.
Two years later, Soderbergh had us all reaching for the Purell with Contagion. Gwyneth Paltrow (who else?) unknowingly becomes patient zero by contracting a deadly virus and starts a global pandemic that starts killing off mass amounts of people quickly as medical professionals scramble to find a vaccine. Damon again appears as Paltrow's husband, Kate Winslet is a doctor struggling to treat the infected, Jude Law plays a conspiracy-theorist blogger, and Marion Cotillard is the doctor tracing the origins of the virus. This paranoia-inducing movie will have you giving the hairy eyeball to anyone sneezing or clearing their throat in your vicinity. Good times!
Soderbergh is a risk taker and seems to enjoy casting non-traditional actors in leading roles. For Haywire, the director decided he wanted to make an action movie built around a character played by real-life MMA fighter Gina Carano. Carano does all her own stunts as Mallory Kane—a highly trained operative working for a government contractor who is double-crossed by her own agency and now the target of assassins. Carano isn't going to take Oscar statues away from anyone soon, but she is totally believable as a gal who would knock a guy across the room as opposed to, say, bony Angelina Jolie.
Channing Tatum gets smacked down by Carano in the opening scene of Haywire, but Tatum smacks some other parts around as the titular gyrating dancer in Soderbergh's male-stripper opus Magic Mike. The movie could have been a fluffy romantic comedy or nothing more than a fleshy parade of ripped dudes in a lesser director's hands, but Soderbergh crafted it as a somewhat gritty drama about what goes on behind the curtain at a male strip club headed up by Matthew McConaughey. This isn't a male Showgirls, in other words.
Soderbergh's final five movies before Side Effects are wildly different. If Side Effects is truly his last big-screen effort, at least we can enjoy the diversity of his video legacy at home for many years to come.
All of the films listed above are available on DVD and/or Blu-ray as well as on various VOD services.

The Best Juice for Healthy Skin

"Fruit and vegetable juices, prepared in the right combinations, can help you to remove crud from your blood and tissues and restore alkalinity and balance to your system," says Noelle Swatland of GreenLemonade.com. "You see the benefits of this crud removal in younger looking skin and greater energy."
Swatland's favorite skin booster? Cucumber. "Consisting of over 90-percent water, cucumbers are a naturally cooling and hydrating food," she says. Plus, they're rich in minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and silica, which is believed to improve complexion and youthful radiance of your skin.
1 to 2 cucumbers
1 small piece apple (optional, for sweetness)
The Best Juice to Fight Aging

When stress, free-radicals, and lack of exercise and sleep attempt to age your skin, Patty James, certified natural chef and author of More Vegetables Please!, recommends fighting off Mother Nature with antioxidant-packed fruits and veggies that can easily be juiced.
1 1/2 cups liquid of your choice (water, any kind of milk, or aloe vera juice)
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup strawberries
1 large leaf kale (thick stem removed)
1/2 medium beet
The Best Juice for Your Sex Life

While oysters and chocolate are a delicious way to get you and your partner in the mood, they're not so appealing juiced. Thankfully, James' top libido-boosting foods are also delicious in liquid form. "Celery contains an ingredient that increases those well-known pheromones in men that send out signals to women saying 'here I am'," James says. "Watermelon helps to relax the blood vessels that increase sex drive, and avocados contain a B vitamin said to boost male hormone production."
2 cups coconut water or aloe vera juice
2 stalks celery
1/2 banana
1 small piece ginger
1/2 avocado
1 handful basil
3 figs

The Best Juice to Boost Energy

Instead of reaching for a coffee, try a green juice instead. "Chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants, helps oxygenate the blood, creating increased brain function and physical energy," says Judita Wignall, author of Going Raw (Quarry Books).
1 large cucumber
8 stalks celery
1 handful kale
1 handful spinach
1 handful parsley
1/4 lemon (with rind if organic)
1-inch piece ginger

The Best Juice for Sweet Cravings

"Celery juice helps balance out the sweetness of this juice while providing electrolytes and alkalizing minerals, as well as helping to reduce sugar cravings," Wignall says. Also; cinnamon contains compounds that help regulate blood sugar. Stable blood sugar = less sugar cravings.
2 apples
8 stalks celery
1 dash cinnamon
The Best Juice for Your Immune System

Sip on this to stay well all year! "Broccoli is very high in vitamin C, which increases the production of infection-fighting white blood cells," Wignall says. "Garlic contains sulfur-containing compounds that have powerful immune-boosting antimicrobial properties."
1 small beet
3 carrots
8 stalks celery
1 stalk broccoli
2 cloves garlic
The Best Juice for Hydration

The coconut in this juice recipe delivers a dose of electrolytes similar to those that balance out our own blood. In fact, doctors have used coconuts to help fight dehydrating diseases such as cholera, dysentery, and influenza, helping save the lives of thousands of children in underdeveloped parts of the world, according to Organic Avenue founder Denise Mari. Coconut water is available in many stores and restaurants (We love Organic Avenue's Indo Coconut Water!), or you can make one for yourself.

The Best Juice for Stress Relief

When Eat Naked author Margaret Floyd needs to wind down after a long day, she turns to spinach. "Spinach is high in the amino acid tryptophan, which helps elevate your mood and promotes better sleep," Floyd says. "It's also high in magnesium, which helps to relax nerves and muscles."
2 big handfuls spinach
3 to 4 stalks broccoli
3 to 4 stalks celery
1 large or 2 small carrots
The Best Juice for Digestion
9 of 10All photos
Floyd turns to the well-known digestive aid, papaya, when having stomach issues. The fruit contains papain, an enzyme that helps digest proteins. But it's not the only powerful ingredient in this juice recipe. "Ginger relaxes the intestinal tract and reduces gas; also often used to quell nausea," Floyd says. And cabbage helps cleans waste from the stomach and upper bowels, which improves digestion and reduces constipation.
1/2 small papaya
3 leaves kale
1/8 head cabbage
1 thumb-sized piece ginger
1 wedge lemon
The Best Juice for Fighting Colds

Eric Helms, founder of Juice Generation, stays healthy during cold season by drinking a 1oz "Vital Shot" consisting of ginger, lemon, and cayenne pepper. "Ginger stimulates the digestive system and has long been used as a natural treatment for colds and the flu," Helms says. Cayenne pepper contains a high concentration of beta carotene, which helps rid the body of free radicals that cause cell damage and protects against infection. Finally, the high content of vitamin C in lemon juice can help safeguard your immune system from infection and the common cold, Helms says.
1 ounce organic ginger
1 squeeze lemon

Ruth Gabriele Silten
Born: May 30, 1933
Berlin, Germany
Gabriele was the only child of Jewish parents living in the German capital of Berlin. Her grandfather owned a pharmacy and a pharmaceuticals factory, where Gabriele's father also made his living.
1933-39: In 1938 the Nazis forced my grandfather to sell his factory and pharmacy for very little money to an "Aryan" German. After that, my father decided we should move to Amsterdam where it was safer for Jews. I was 5 years old and wanted to stay in Berlin. I didn't understand why I had to leave my toys and friends. In Amsterdam I had to learn a whole new language when I began elementary school, but I soon began to make new friends there.
1940-44: In May 1940 Germany invaded the Netherlands. I remember being frightened seeing the German troops march into the city. When I went to school I had to wear a yellow Jewish star, and I couldn't play with my Christian friends anymore. When I was 9, my family was deported to a camp in the eastern Netherlands called Westerbork. There, during the day while my parents worked, I learned to steal things to barter for food. A year later we were sent to the Theresienstadt ghetto. In the ghetto I was hungry all the time.
Twelve-year-old Gabriele and her parents were liberated from Theresienstadt in May 1945. That June, the Silten family returned to Amsterdam, where they resettled.

12-66-238. Numbers seldom tell the story of any athletic contest and often trivialize meaningful results. Wabash dominated Wittenberg Saturday with physical defense and a punishing run attack for a 28-17 championship win. The Little Giants will be in the NCAA playoffs in two weeks and are the 2011 NCAC Conference Champions.
Those numbers play out to 12 rushing first downs, 66 carries, and 238 rushing yards.
"They're really good on defense, particularly in the secondary," Coach Erik Raeburn said. "We knew we'd have to run the football to have a chance. We ran a lot better in the first half than even I thought we could.
"But the defense was the big key. I've got tremendous respect for how good their quarterback and receivers are. To hold them to 10 points, with the screw-ups coming on our special teams for their last score, that was an impressive defensive performance by our guys."
The Little Giant defense was stellar against Witt quarterback Ben Zoeller holding him to 15-of-27 passing for 146 yards. They picked off one and sacked him four times. But the defense blitzed, blitzed and blitzed some more putting a body on Zoeller nearly every throw.
"Last year he torched us," Raeburn said. "But just like every quarterback, when you get hit every time it's hard to make accurate throws."
The rushing numbers were staggering. Wabash's 238 yards looked all the more glaring beside the Tigers' 10 net yards.
"Running the ball is always the key," said junior offensive lineman Weston Kitley. "If you can control the line of scrimmage, like everybody says, you can control the game. They're an all-around great team. Every year they're a great team. We knew we had to come out with a lot more intensity than we have the last 4-5 weeks. We came out ready to play. We had too many mental errors again today but they did a lot of confusing things. We just did a good job of picking most of it up."
Tyler Holmes had a career day with 111 yards on 19 rushes. Vann Hunt added 85 on 22 carries. Chase Belton had 88 yards on 20 carries.
The defense set the Little Giants up for their first score when C.J. Gum delivered a crushing blow to Zoeller that caused an errant pass picked off by freshman Cody Brush. Wabash kept the ball on the ground capped by Belton's one-yard plunge, 7-0. The Little Giants got their second score of the game on a five-rush-play drive capped by Belton's four-yard fun, 14-0.
On the next series the defense forced a three-and-out and Wabash was on the run again. Five rushing plays moved the ball to the Witt 21. Belton found a streaking Wes Chamblee crossing through the end zone for a 21-0 halftime edge.
Witt put two scores up in the third quarter on Corey Weber's five-yard run and Sean Williams' 42-yard field goal.
The Little Giants got their first wrapped around the NCAC championship trophy with seven minutes to play. The defense forced two incomplete passes then smothered Zoeller for a 12-yard sack. Trey LaValley had to punt from near his goal line. Kyle Najar flew in from a corner, blocked the punt which was picked up in the end zone by Hildebrand for a touchdown.
"I knew I had an edge on that right tackle I'd blocked before," Najar said. "I was setting him up because I was calling it out like I was blocking him. I just got past him and whacked it. I saw the ball bounced and Sean was there to pick it up. I knew I was going to block it for some reason."
Hildebrand knew he was in the right place at the right time. "We called an all-out punt block," he explained. "I was on outside contain and Kyle made a great play to get the block. It was a gift from God when the ball bounced right to me."
Witt picked up a late score with three minutes to play when a Little Giant snap sailed way over the head of the Wabash punter. The ball was picked up by Mike McKee and returned 25 yards to cap the scoring, 28-17.
Wabash wins the NCAC championship outright for the first time since 2008 and earns the league's automatic berth for the NCAA Championships. The unbeaten Little Giants 9-0 travel to DePauw Saturday for 118th battle for the Monon Bell. The Tigers are 4-4 after Saturday's win over Albion.
Wittenberg, 7-2, must face Wooster to close its season.
"To win a conference championship, we're going to the playoffs, those are all great things," Raeburn said. We'll enjoy it tonight and then we have to get ready for the Bell Game."

Why Madison Presidential Listening Tour: Duke Club Board of Directors
President's Journal —
Duke Club Board of Directors, Festival Conference Center, Nov. 16, 2012
The Duke Club board wants to see Madison succeed both on and off the field
Tonight we met at the Festival Conference Center with the Duke Club Board of Directors as part of the "Why Madison?" Presidential Listening Tour. The board is here in conjunction with a big game weekend and their regular board meeting, and so it was a natural time to meet these very accomplished and enthusiastic supporters. It was obvious to me how much they enjoy feeling involved in JMU's sports programs and how much they want to see Madison succeed both on and off the field.
Directors offered concrete suggestions for increasing alumni giving
The Duke Club board is a great example of an action-oriented group of alumni supporters of the university. They have a can-do attitude, so when they heard the statistics today that 97 percent of Madison alumni say they had a great experience at JMU but only 7 percent give back, they immediately analyzed the problem and resolved to do something about it. They started to talk about a variety of solutions, including what they could do as ambassadors—coming back to campus and talking about their own personal experiences with today's students. We heard some testimonials about why they give back, and how it makes them feel like a part of the JMU community even after they've graduated.
Alumni can be effective advocates for Madison
The idea of intergenerational connections really struck a chord with this Duke Club board. They understand they can play a role in talking to current students or talking to young alumni about the importance of giving, why it matters, and how gifts can make a difference. Some of them volunteered to be put to work immediately. These alumni are great living examples of people who've done it, people who are part of that 7 percent who give financially to JMU, so I was really encouraged. To know we have supporters like these Duke Club board members is reassuring; they can be effective advocates for us in ways the administration can't—off campus and in all the different places where they live and work. This board understands and embraces this role.
Taking JMU academic departments on the road to meet alumni
What I find significant is that most of this group does not live in the local area, but they come back to campus periodically from various places around Virginia and the country. So they are aware of how JMU—and not just JMU athletics—is perceived elsewhere. It was very helpful to hear their ideas about how we can take Madison's distinctive spirit and sense of family on the road, if you will, to all those places where we have alumni, supporters, parents, and students all across the country. One of their great suggestions was to stage an event in a city where we have a lot of alumni and show off some of our celebrated academic programs—like accounting, for example. We did that just recently with our hospitality program dinner in the Washington, D.C. area. That was very successful. Sometimes we hear from alumni that they would connect not only with Madison generally, but very specifically with the program or college from which they graduated. These types of opportunities the Duke Club board has suggested would be particularly important for those people who connect in that way. I want us to explore how we can take Madison out to our alumni communities very intentionally around the state and around the country. We should try to learn from departments that have a successful track record doing this and emulate that university-wide.
Board takes a holistic view of athletics in the life of JMU
We had a good conversation about the role of athletics in the life of the university. The Duke Club board takes a holistic view. Athletics often acts as a front porch of the university to the community, to draw people in to cheer on the Dukes. That experience can then open the door farther for Dukes fans to experience more of JMU. We had some really interesting conversations about holding alumni events the night before the big game so that we can offer alumni more to do beyond athletics. There are a variety of ways to showcase what we're doing at the university around athletics events, whether it's our musical and performing arts groups, for example, or interesting research and endeavors that faculty and students have undertaken, or thinking about alumni events and student organizations that can work around the games and draw people out. There's a lot that we can do to tie together athletics with the rest of life at the university, and to bring people back and make them feel all the more connected to JMU. I think we need to be more intentional about finding those opportunities.
Alumni are impressed by the personal stories of our student-athletes
We spent some time talking about effective alumni engagement and fundraising ideas. One of the most successful now is the annual Duke Club Auction, which I had the opportunity to attend earlier this fall. It was a very powerful example of those direct relationship-building moments—student-athletes were in the room, and they were mingling with alumni, donors, parents and faculty members. It was just a great experience to watch the excitement and energy in those interactions. I met a lot of our student-athletes at that event and talked to them. When you hear their personal stories, when you hear how much the support given to them means to them and their families and their lives and how JMU has changed their lives, you can't help but want to give. You want to support these wonderful students. You hear their hopes and dreams for the future and you want to be a part of that. I think we need to be looking for more of these intergenerational opportunities. There are many more ways our student-athletes can be a visible presence—ways we can introduce them as real people to our community so people understand their hopes and dreams. Yes, they're athletes, but they're also students. Many of them have aspirations to go on to law school or medical school, or into nursing or other fields where they can have interesting and productive lives and careers. Those personal stories about where they've come from and where they want to go reach people in the heart and make them want to give to Madison to support these students. That's what makes it real.
Duke Club board has its priorities straight
I was impressed with how enlightened the Duke Club board is. We talked about the fact that our student-athletes are students first. I think the Duke Club Board of Directors understands that concept, which is not always the case at universities of our size and reputation. These board members are successful in business and in all different facets of life, so they know student-athletes need to develop skills to be successful later in life. Athletics plays an important part of that. We talked about skills of teamwork and leadership, resilience, and overcoming adversity and obstacles, all of which athletics can help cultivate. We also talked about the need for our student-athletes to develop those skills inside the classroom and in their academic experience. Athletics should not be separate and apart from the academic life of the university, but should be very much part and parcel of the educational experience at JMU. Yes, athletics is a part of the educational experience and at every turn we need to reinforce how those pieces fit together. The Duke Club Board is a group that gets it. I really was delighted to meet them and hope we have the opportunity again soon to talk more about their ideas.

Anyway, they interviewed a couple early boots from Pearl Islands, including Shawn and Andrew. And although I didn't hear the interviews, the discussion moved to how brutal the final TC is. Appearntly Shawn, Andrew, and Jeff Probst flat out said that there will be FIVE Susan Hawk style final speeches during the last TC.

Serendipitous insight
It took probably ten minutes for him to show us how a black and white photo comes to life from time the image, caught on a negative, is transferred to the photographic paper through light exposure from an enlarger. Watching him drop that paper into those three trays of dektol (allows the image to appear on the page, stop bath (stops the action of the action of the dektol) and fixer (fixes the image on the paper so it won't go away) changed my life.
It all seemed so magical. I instantly knew I wanted to do this. What better way to learn it than through our yearbook activities! Within days, our staff owned a Ricoh 35 mm SLR camera. Within hours of learning the basic steps for using the camera, we had snapped a couple of rolls of film. We hadn't' learned the darkroom techniques yet, but that would come.
I would advise the yearbook for 14 years. We would eventually produce every photo (except the class mugs) that went into the annual. It would mean hours of work after school and on weekends, but the skills gained by students creating their yearbook with such a hands-on approach would send some of them into situations that, for some, would mean exciting world travel or lifetime careers.
One of the students actually accompanied the Time Magazine photographer who snapped photos of the four "Time Men of the Year." That mean jetting to South Africa, Tunisia, and Jerusalem. He also worked as an assistant for the photographer who does most Rollingstone Magazine covers. Another has worked as a production manager for national TV commercials and now runs the photo operations for Coldwater Creek. This wide photographic swath was influenced years before by one man's willingness to take ten minutes of his time to show me the magic of photography.
That's why a few moments at last night's fair reminds me that it's often the little things, the little spontaneous gestures that can make such a difference in a person's life. In this particular case, my life changed a bit as did those of two young women in their '30s. They're the daughters of Mary Margaret "Peggy" Broehl, who was my classmate for several years.
I first met Peggy in the summer before the seventh grade. We were all representing our 4-H clubs at the county home economics demonstration contest. That was the day my infamous cake demonstration (chronicled in my book Pocket Girdles occurred). Peggy probably didn't laugh quite as loud as those fiendish women did when my cake batter started climbing up the Sunbeam mixer blades, so she remained my friend.
Because my name was "Brown" and her name was "Broehl," we sat next to each other in a lot of classes from junior high through college. We also remained good friends. After graduating from the University of Idaho and returning to Sandpoint, where that photography seed was hatched, I subscribed to Life Magazine because I loved its black-and-white photos. One day, while flipping through the pages, I came to an article about an out-of-work Boeing engineer.
Through copy and dramatic photos, it showed how the engineer and his family were managing their lives on a lot less money. Suddenly, I zeroed in on a very familiar face; it was my friend Peggy Broehl. Some of the skills she'd learned in 4-H were aiding her in getting through this temporary family challenge. To say it was a thrill to see my classmate on the pages of Life Magazine is an understatement.
That was the last I heard or saw of Peggy for several years until her nephew sat in my study hall at Sandpoint High School. When I asked him what ever happened to Peggy, he stunned me by reporting that she had died from cancer a few years before. It took a while for that to set in, for sure. Years later, I met a nice young lady working at one of the local coffee shops. When we got to talking, once again I was stunned. She was Peggy's daughter Effie, and she had returned to her mother's hometown after living in Seattle.
Last night I saw Effie again----next to the Wurst Man's booth, where else? We visited for a few minutes. She left and then returned with her younger sister. Once more I was struck. There were Peggy's eyes and expression staring right back at me.
We talked for maybe 15 minutes. I told them what I could remember about their mother. They listened intently to every word as I shared anecdotes about the mother they had lost when they were 6 and 3, respectively. I promised them a class reunion booklet and the enlarged yearbook page (made for our reunion) which shows Peggy and me side by side at the top of the page.
Next to our senior portraits were our high school activities and aims for our lives ahead. While my goal was to be "the first to eat the green cheese sandwiches," Peggy's read, "To live with a song in my heart."
Suddenly, I realized this scene with these young women at the county fair was another of those powerful moments like I'd experienced so long ago in that darkroom when Jack Swanson opened a new dimension in my life. I'm just hoping that last night's visit with Peggy Broehl's lovely daughters leaves their hearts singing with new and life-enhancing thoughts about the mother they knew for such a short time.

Thanks for the walk down memory lane, I had forgotten about Mom's dark room... better known to the rest of us as our one and only bathroom. And at the age of 10 I was finally allowed in. Before we were threatend with surely death if we even put our hands on that door knob. And at the age of 10, I stood there and watch the picture come up on the paper like magic.
thanks again.
And what a wonderful time to be able to tell those two young ladies about their Mom. Almost brought tears to my eyes.
I was sad to learn at our reunion that Peggy had passed away. She was one of those rare spirits that every one liked. The story left me with tears in my eyes and happy that I had the pleasure of knowing her for a short time and happy to know that she lives on through her children.
Thank you Marianne for your gift of insight into our mother and what she was like. And I so appreciate you offer to give us the reunion paper and picture, it will mean so much to us. I have some memmories, mostly that she was my best friend and I felt so special when we did things together. See you soon,
I so enjoyed meeting you and hearing your stories about my mom. I only have one memory of her so I do rely on other people's memories and insights to who she really was. I hope we will have a chance to meet again. Thank you.

Being the oldest of Peggy's girls, I remember her the most. I remember reading with her while eating chocolate chips in bed, berry picking and making jelly, family camping trips, drinking tea with evaporated milk when I was sick but most of all I remember cooking with Mom.
Christmas time she would make 18 different kinds of cookies and fudge just to give them all away! We'd go with when she delivered platefuls of assorted cookies to friends and mail them off to others.
I remember when Mom told me she had cancer, that was in the kitchen, too. Shortly before she died, Effie and I made her chocolate cake paring down one of her recipies so it would fit in my Easy-Bake oven. She had us go get her the camera so she could take pictures of us, chocolate on our faces, presenting her with the little layer cake. I still remember how proud and happy she was for making her cake, even though she was too sick to eat it.
Thank you for sharing your memories as all mine are from the perspective of a child. It's fun to know who she was as a woman, too.

I recently wrote a post on State of Search about the Integration of Marketing Channels – Here is a shorter version for you to read over.
With the technology changing by the minute, consumers today have a wide range of options when it comes to gaining information and purchasing the products and services that they need. No doubt the Internet is the latest and at present the most popular and convenient medium for marketing, advertising and even purchasing products. From placing an order for food from a restaurant to booking an airline ticket, there are multifarious products and services that are bought online every day. At the same time there are customers who still prefer more conventional methods when it comes to their purchases. They may prefer to call a company or simply visit a brick and mortar store to buy products. To connect with these characteristically 'offline customers' a business may have to use channels such as TV, newspapers, Yellow Pages and direct mail for advertising and marketing.
Business organizations need to ensure that their customers enjoy a flexibility to interact with their brands through any channel. Deploying a successful multi channel marketing strategy calls for strategic focus and a commitment to gauge the correct results of value generated.
The efficacy of different marketing channels can be enhanced by unifying customer data collected at every possible interaction with the customers. The business should also ensure that buyer experience is consistent across all channels. It needs to develop a strong understanding of how the customers move through the buying cycle. The business using multiple channels for marketing must also maintain the same customer policies across all channels that cover different customers.
Integrated multi channel marketing is not a mere technological issue. It is a strategic, evolutionary path that businesses, especially the retailers should follow to maintain their competitiveness in the market. By following integrated multi channel marketing approach, businesses can enjoy long terms and cordial bonds with their customers and also enhance their prospects for growth.
