Went with grand children to swim and have fun, mainly swim. the lake was scummy around edge of beach area and the beach was nothing but duck crap. You could not walk on beach or two or more feet in water with out duck crap. Could not swim. Told them but nothing was done. Then there was duck crap in camping area. The one set of rest rooms were unsafe. Floors buckled up and fell in along with the toilet. the other set was filthy, toilets dirty and full of body waste, showers dirty and moldy. Very unsatisfied.
In the park was a wonderful playground. The camping site was flat enough that we didn't have to level it and was by playground. The attendants were old and very nice. - barbnted

We stayed here for 3 nights. We were passing through and needed a place to stay for a few days. It was a cheap place with Passport America. The park staff is nice, the seasonal residents are very friendly. The highway noise was loud day and night! The place was very active on the weekend but quiet times were observed. WiFi was very good. TV antenna reception was good. The transient sites were out in an open field with a little lake. No picnic table or fire ring. We would stay here again if passing through the area because it was cheap and the park was easy to navigate. - RunAroundSue

This campground is for homesteaders. Front of campground is a lot to be desired. Filled with dilapidated travel trailers, fifth wheels, motorhomes which have been built on to. Once you drive through the wooded area you come to an open field that has no shade, and homesteaders have taken over the spaces by the woods and pond. Transients have the middle strip to set up and hope the cramped site is large enough for your slide outs. Homesteaders have full run of this park, rules only apply to transient guests. No picnic table, no fire ring (took one from an empty site). The bathhouse is absolutely filthy, with rotted floors. Have to have water filters due to horrible water. DO NOT use the washers, ruined an entire load of white clothes to their rusty water. Only 30 amp service, no picnic tables or fire rings. Have some activities in weekends but if you're not one of the homesteaders you're really not welcomed. This campground is almost like it's own little compound, you're welcome to come for a night or two, but that's it. A woman sits on her deck at the front of the campground and waves to everyone but refuses to acknowledge you when she's riding through the campground on her golf cart. They do accept Passport America and Good Sam. The price would have been o.k. until I lost $75 worth of white clothes due to their rusty water! I wouldn't recommend this campground to anyone. - Dream living

We can concur with some of the comments from before. This campground seems to not have any real set rates. They say they are Passport America, but we have paid $22, $28 and this time $45 for the a 50amp, full hook up site on stops during the past year. The sites are well worth the earlier rates, but way over priced for narrow, sloping gravel pads with all hookups at the rear of the pad. Will opt for one of the other options within 10 miles on future semi annual trips. We were checked in by the owner each time who is very nice and helpful and each time assure the Passport rate was applied. There are 13 or 14, 50 amp full hookup sites, all the other are 30 amp with water only, under heavy tree cover. - Teacher's Pet

Very nice, well run park. There are not many full hookup sites, so if you need one make a reservation. Many sites are under heavy tree cover with only 4 or 5 being satellite friendly. This campground is a Christian Retreat Center in it's own description and has very nice facilities. There are meeting facilities and a large bunk house on the grounds. - Teacher's Pet
May 2015 - $20.00
Nice park and convenient to interstate, but gets flooded when it rains. Very overpriced for facilities offered. Rest rooms were not cleaned daily and often littered with left over items. We have stayed here 2 years in a row when visiting relatives in the area but will not return due to conflict concerning quoted rates. - Diplomat 07

I'm on a seasonal site here at Walnut Ridge. It's about an hour from my house, and my sister and brother in law also come out and camp--our schedules are different enough that we rarely overlap. Therefore, it's perfect for us.
Walnut Ridge the campground pre-dates the RV dealership of the same name. Apparently, once Gary Hart bought the campground way back when, they ended up selling a few campers here and there and the idea for the RV dealership was born. Most people know of the dealership first--it is a very busy place these days. There is a service center as well. If you buy from the dealership, you can spend 2 free days camping at the campground. It's a nice way to become familiar with your new purchase.
I did buy from Walnut Ridge, but I'd no idea at the time where I was going to store it. When I saw the campground and learned I could keep my new TT on a seasonal site for about the same price as paying for yearly storage, I was sold.
I love camping here. Having ready access to my trailer without having to move it is nice. It's a very quiet campground, with lots of friendly people. The grounds are kept very clean and they have lots of activities. There's mini golf, a playground and a very nice pool. The store sells ice cream. WiFi is very good. I love the trees and the birds, though not too fond of the squirrels and their destructive ways.
There are pull-through sites for temporary visitors, which I've used. I can pull my trailer out to go places, and find the roads and paths to be well kept. There aren't any poorly kept sites to be seen.
My sole complaint is the lack of sewer hookup, but I recognize that it's impossible given the hills of the place. They do offer a pump service, but I got my own honeywagon and empty that way. It's not bad. They treat you like family here, and I love it. - drdit92

This has more seasonal campers in it than anyone else. They have an area set up for people who have bought a new camper from them to stay for 2 nights free. Not sure if you can pick a different area to "camp" in there, but never saw anyone other than seasonal campers in other areas. There isn't any sewer hookup,only water & electric, and its hard to dump your tanks how they have it set up. It's on a hill, on a turn, and its some maneuvering to get it lined up to dump. While you are doing that, the road is pretty much blocked. The 2 days we were there, our sink, & toilet turned brown from the water. TWO DAYS! The campground is clean, is quiet, looks really nice though. If you want to go swimming, it costs $5 a person. I never knew any place that charged to swim if you are camping. I was told by the man in the office that the rates are compatible with all the campgrounds in that area. They aren't. Check for yourself. I would never stay there unless it was an emergency. It's overpriced. - happy2013camper

Stayed here two nights due to weather. Closing on the 14th for the season. Beautifully kept area inside and out. Showers were not new but very clean and well maintained. We appear to be the only ones left here that are not full time. Staff is most helpful and has a wonderful supply of tools if you forgot your saw, etc. I agree that the dump station is a strange spot on the way out. Easy access, cement pads for pull through, friendly, and even they escorted us to our site. I would return. - Cape Cod

1st time back in several years, returned due to upgrade of electric hookup to include 50amp. As with most Indiana State Parks, this park is well maintained. Service locations are acceptable, but 50 feet of water hose is needed for shared water faucet between sites. As full timers we carry 100 feet of hose at all times. Our site was easy to level on, others were uneven front to back. - Teacher's Pet

Summit Lake Reprise
We reviewed Summit Lake in 2013, and were not terribly impressed with the park facilities. Our recent visit indicated that things are looking up!
The electrical problem has been remedied; campground 'A' has been completely re-wired with all new boxes and 50a service. The bathrooms are still mediocre, but they've been cleaned up, a fresh coat of paint, and other minor improvements have been made to spruce up the facilities. The showers still need better drainage and they pretty much drain into the hallway floor, but that's an engineering issue, not cleaning.
DNR staff was walking through the campground on Friday and Saturday night, introducing themselves as security, and indicating they'd be on property until 4am. They were personable fellas and it was nice to know that staff was 'minding the store'. In addition, DNR vehicles regularly passed through the campground. We've noticed this trend at other state parks this year, so there might be a new directive in order from the state.
The trails are easy (although described as moderate), the lake has many options for fishing from the bank, and staff shared that resurfacing the interior roads is on the horizon, as well as new gravel at the campsites, and a re-wiring of the electrical in campground 'B'. Seems like they're intent on upgrading this property.
Campground A is mostly level and open, and the sites have shared, fresh water posts (two to a post). We needed 75' of hose to connect, but it's nice to have a fresh water hookup at a state park in Indiana. Campground B is more rolling, and few sites in B would accommodate more than a pop-up or tent.
We are pleased with our recent visit to Summit Lake and will return. - fastalker64

We had one of the few pull-thru's. The park was well-groomed, the people were friendly, and the lake was clear and beautiful. Fun to ride our bikes! Our site was without shade, but there were other ones available in wooded areas. We would definitely stay there again. - Jeff Jangerous

Pulled in to Modoc & went to the store to check in. Was given a map for our site. Got there about 5 -6 pm. The 1st night set up and just walked around the camp grounds, let the kids play at the play ground. Not sure of our site number, last row near the street. Very noisy from road traffic. Folks seem to haul it down this road. The next morning we ate breakfast & we headed to the pond. Not a lot of folks there as most pulled out that morning. There were about 10-15 folks swimming. Some very young 2-3 years old. My husband and myself were sitting on the beach area watching our grandkids swimming. They were in the pond about a half hour or so when a boat spraying something was on the other side of the pond. We ask a couple that was sitting near us if they were full time here or visiting and if they knew what was being sprayed. They had stated they were full time & had no idea what was being sprayed. There was another couple who was there visiting. They had ask the boat driver what he was spraying. The boat driver ignored him. My husband went over to the boat driver and ask also. He ignored him also. My husband noticed the boat driver was wearing gloves, long shirt and long pants. My husband ask if this stuff he was spraying was hazardous because of him being completely covered while he was spraying. He finally answered and said state regulations. We told our grandkids to GET OUT OF THE WATER IMMEDIATELY. Several others were screaming the same thing. We all went to find the owner and find out what was being sprayed. The owner stated he did not know BUT he would bring us a chemical paper of what was being sprayed. The 1st line read Hazards to humans and domestic animals. DO NOT get on skin clothing in eyes -mouth or inhale. To achieve desired control with herbicide in flowing waters (which this is not), a minimum exposure period of 3 hours should be maintained. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? Rec'd a refund of 1/2 our swimming fee and our camp fee for that day. Loaded up and left immediatly. NEVER COMING BACK HERE AGAIN. - Loandiva

This camp is very friendly! The owners are great, lots of events for my young kids (including a lake to swim in). Most of the campground (80%-90%) are seasonal, but lots of space for us weekenders too. We will be going again! - roofamily

Even though the one staff member I spoke with was courteous and helpful, this park is not worth the money. For two nights, it cost $107 for a pull-through campsite with water, electric, and sewer. Unfortunately, the water was very rusty and smelled. The rust was so bad, I had to spend a few hours trying to remove rust stains from our shower, sinks, toilet, and water heater. The park had not mowed the grass and it was extremely loud due to its location. They are located about a half mile from the highway. The worst thing about this park is the fact that 75% of the campers there are permanent residents. These residents do not do well with upkeep so it looks cluttered and trashy. The camp store was closed all weekend and the Wi-Fi did not work. My family and I will not visit this campground in the future. - Indiana Camping Family 45

Rate shown is the Passport America rate. This is the second time we have stayed here and will probably stay again. The pull-thru sites are easy in and out and, whether grass or gravel, very level. They are plenty wide enough for slides and/or awnings. You couldn't find a nicer, more helpful staff anywhere. They do have somewhat limited office hours in the off season but a phone call will have everything waiting for your arrival. Now, the only downside; the showers. You have to push a button to turn the water on and then it lasts around 5 seconds each push - extremely inconvenient, not only for washing hair but for pretty much washing anything. We didn't use the showers on our last visit so didn't know about this until this time. We are self-contained and don't usually use campground showers and we surely won't use these again! - SandyA
Jul 2015 - $18.00
This is a good park for an overnight stay when on the road on I-70. The rate reflects the Passport America rate. The sites are easy to get in and to leave. we were in a drive-through site. the sites are level and all the hook-ups work. We would stay here again.
One caveat: When driving north on Rt 109, go slow. as there is only a small sign to show the entrance to the park on the right and it is easy to miss the turn, requiring one to unhook the toad, to turn around. - hoppytoad

Quakertown SRA is a wonderful campground. Lots of level and grassy sites. Many shaded sites. Close to Quakertown Marina, where you can rent pontoon boats on Brookville Lake. They have a beach, but there were many geese at the beach. This campground is in the middle of no where. There is a store right outside of the park to purchase essentials and they have hot pizza, if you need a break from cooking. The campground is paved and has blacktop pads, with a big picnic table and fire ring. As in most of Indiana state parks no water hookups. If you choose to camp here I would camp close to the one and only comfort station, as the throne pit toilets don't do much for me. This is always a quiet campground. If you have little one's take them to the marina and get some dog food to feed the fish. - theschuettes

We stayed fairly close to comfort station, and found it a busy traffic site. Well shaded, and good water, trash removal, had picnic tables and campfires are allowed. Most sites are pretty well graveled and reasonably easy to level a camper. They have added water view cabins, and most of the park provides for easy fishing access, and water view.
Friendly staff, well security patrolled. Really need to improve the sewer dump station. It would really make it a better park, if they installed sewer connections and upgraded the restroom and shower facilities. - Jacobsen

Stayed here due to the close proximity to the Muncie 70.3 race. Mostly seasonal campers. The daily RV sites have only a 30 amp outlet and water hookup. They are generally narrow, unlevel and scattered with trash. Can't figure why folks don't pick up after themselves because there are large trash cans every couple sites. The grass isn't mowed often. They have primitive tent site closer to the one bathroom/shower. Although the bathroom is old it was fairly clean. The staff is friendly and helpful although they allowed another RV to take the site I'd reserved because they were staying longer and they said our 40ft would fit on a site that was made for a 20ft. This isn't a place you would come to "camp" but if you're coming to race or boat/fish it fits the bill for an overnight or two. - cpahog

First, the guy in the office was nice and very helpful. That said, this campground was disappointing based on other reviews I read. We were looking for a weekend getaway trip close to home and really thought this would work. We camped in a 37' MH. Campground roads were pretty narrow. Unfortunately some campers parked their vehicles right up to the road which made our exit Sunday morning quite precarious and needed another camper to make sure I was clear on both sides. Many pull-thru sites but few were level. Saw some RV's with wheels on blocks and one guy actually had his front wheels a few inches off the ground. Ours was somewhat level only if the back of the RV was right on the edge of the road as the site had an upward grade to it. Sites were pretty close together all gravel. Some had concrete patios - ours did not and was muddy. As pointed out before this campground is right on I-70. Contrary to what others have said, there is A LOT of road noise, which was irritating at night when trying to sleep. I was looking forward to the fishing pond but the water was very muddy at the time so I opted not to get out the fly rod. Not a campground on our shortlist to return to. - iceman308

Meeting Directory
All Al-Anon discussions should be constructive, helpful, loving, and understanding. In striving toward these ideals, we avoid topics which can lead to dissension and that can distract us from our goals.
1. DISCUSSION OF RELIGION: Al-Anon is not allied with any religion. It is a spiritual program, based on no particular form of religion. Everyone is welcome, no matter of what affiliation or none. Let us not defeat our purpose by entering into discussions concerning specific religious beliefs.
2. GOSSIP: We meet to help ourselves and others learn and use the Al-Anon philosophy. In such groups, gossip can have no part. We do not discuss members or others, and particularly not the alcoholic. Our dedication to anonymity gives people confidence in Al-Anon. Careless repeating of matters heard at Al-Anon meetings can defeat the very purpose for which we are joined together.
3. DOMINANCE: Our leaders are chosen not to govern, but to
serve. No member of Al-Anon should direct, assume authority, or give
advice. Our program is based on suggestion, interchange of experience,
and rotation of leadership. Any attempt to manage or direct is likely
to have serious consequences for group harmony.

Food firms urged to fight abuse
The country's major food companies should be held accountable for human rights abuses on farms,...
The country's major food companies should be held accountable for human rights abuses on farms, the Food and Allied Workers Union (Fawu) said on Wednesday
Fawu said almost a year had passed since a farmworkers' summit saw several measures recommended to address living and working conditions on farms. But nothing much has changed.
The union's Gafieldien Benjamin said food companies make major profits and should fight the scourge.
"The food suppliers are not really taking responsibility for what's happening to farm workers.
"The CEOs of these companies are earning astronomical amounts of money per annum."
Agri SA's Annelize Crosby said they try their best to address abuses where they arise, but cannot play the role of an enforcement agency.
"It's not only up to us. We have to have a partnership where government and other stakeholders each play their role," she said.

my honest opinion is that there is to much speculation going on
I know with my H SRi once ordered Sept last year it come up on the system as 9 weeks with a delivery date, 5 weeks later i received a call from my dealer saying my car has just arrived sort out your insurance etc. So you never know and no dates are set in stone. At present i believe the system is spitting out the maximum date you will receive so stand by to stand by

When I told my teachers in grade school that I thought I wanted to become a priest, they beamed and did everything possible to encourage me. Their enthusiasm was matched, if not surpassed, by my supportive parents and siblings, my parish priest and even my neighbors. My entire world (as I knew it then) was united in support of my choice of a vocation—even the non-Catholics. And this wasn't the case only for me. Catholic parents and family members very often found pride in the daughter who chose a life consecrated to Jesus or the son who gave himself to serve the church as a priest. It was an honor for the average Catholic family to have a priest, sister or brother in the family. It was commonplace to find respect for men and women who answered the call to witness Christ in consecrated life; everyone knew that they were among those who helped to make the world a better place to live.
These days there is more skepticism surrounding the prospect of a son or daughter, pupil or friend becoming a priest or religious sister. It sometimes seems that a culture of discouragement has set in, strengthened by scandals in the church. Therefore, one of the tasks of the new evangelization is to build—or better put, rebuild—a culture of vocations in the church. A culture of vocations is one that provides the necessary social supports for each person to hear and respond to the call of God in his or her life. It helps youth and young adults embrace the priesthood or the consecrated life with great enthusiasm and joy.
Much of the emphasis now is rightfully placed on new ways to bring people back into participation in the life and mission of the church. But the new evangelization requires good and effective leadership in the church to achieve its goal—the proclamation of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As we observe National Vocation Awareness Week during the Year of Faith, it would be good to ask ourselves: How do we rebuild a culture of vocations for the new evangelization?
This past September, the Secretariat of Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops released the findings of a major survey of Catholic youth and young adults on their consideration of a vocation—a survey that produced some very telling conclusions. The study, titled "Consideration of Priesthood and Religious Life Among Never-Married U.S. Catholics," was conducted by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate and was partially funded by a generous grant from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation. The survey and analysis by CARA provide helpful information for religious communities, dioceses, parishes, schools and families to encourage a culture of vocations.
A Serious Consideration
The good news from the study is that there is no shortage of interest in religious vocations in the United States. Among all the respondents to the scientific survey, 12 percent of never-married Catholic men age 14 and older had considered priesthood or religious life at least "a little seriously." Similarly, 10 percent of never-married Catholic women of the same age had considered religious life at least "a little seriously." In raw numbers, that extrapolates to almost 2.7 million people. More significantly, 3 percent and 2 percent of the respondents (men and women) had "very seriously" considered a religious vocation, the highest possible category respondents could choose. This represents more than 600,000 youth and young adults in the U.S. Catholic population. This is encouraging news, perhaps even surprising, when one considers all of the negative press about the church.
The study was designed to discover key factors for the consideration of a vocation among our Catholic youth and young adult population today. In the survey data four key correlations strongly emerge.
1. Catholic education. Among male respondents, those who attended Catholic secondary school (grades 9-12) were more than six times more likely to have considered becoming a priest or a religious than those who did not attend a Catholic secondary school. For women it was attendance in a Catholic primary school that was important. Female respondents who attended Catholic primary school were more than three times more likely to consider being a religious sister than those who did not.
2. Participation in parish religious education programs, youth and young adult groups. Women who participated in a parish high school youth group were more than nine times more likely to consider a religious vocation. For men, the key age was participation in a parish youth group during their primary school years (grades K-8). Those men who participated were more than five times more likely to consider becoming a priest or religious than those who did not.
3. Encouragement from others. Having even one person encourage an individual to consider a religious vocation doubles the likelihood that they will do so, for both men and women. Furthermore, the effect is additive. If three persons offered encouragement, respondents were more than five times more likely to consider a religious vocation.
4. Knowing someone who is a priest, religious sister or brother or seminarian. Individuals who had a personal connection to someone in religious life were one and a half times more likely to consider this vocation for themselves compared to those who did not have this connection. Here, too, the effect was additive. The more religious one knew, the more consideration was given to the religious life.
What is striking here is that in all four key areas that correlated with a greater likelihood of consideration of a vocation, personal relationships are key. The positive influences for a vocation identified in the survey results seem to be more affective than cognitive. This provides an important fact to remember as we continue to promote a culture of vocations in our church.
Cultivating Cultural Sensitivity
Recent surveys show that Hispanics make up about one third of the Catholic population in the United States and that the proportion of Hispanics will continue to grow in the near future. Already, 48 percent of U.S. Catholics under the age of 31 are Hispanic. These figures tell us that the faith and rich culture of Hispanics are and will continue to be a great blessing for the church in our country. But while the vocation survey shows that Hispanic respondents—both male and female—are no less likely than others to say they have considered a vocation at one time or another, the results also highlight some of the serious challenges the church faces when it comes to fostering the call to religious life among our Hispanic population and giving this group the tools they need to succeed.
Simply put, only 3 percent of all Catholic priests in the United States today are Hispanic, according to the book Same Call, Different Men. This low number mirrors the percentage of Hispanic men and women in religious life, which is also at about 3 percent. While the number of Hispanics in the U.S. church's recent ordination and profession classes is an improvement, much more still needs to be done. Roughly 15 percent of the newly ordained priests in 2012 were Hispanic, but fewer than 5 percent of these men were U.S. born, even though U.S. born (and English-speaking) Hispanics in this age group far outnumber those who immigrated to the United States. This should serve as a wake-up call. Our young, English-speaking, Hispanic population is very much an untapped, rich source of vocations to the priesthood and consecrated life. If more is not done to encourage vocations among this intensely rich ethnic group that makes up nearly half of our young adult Catholic population, the religious vocation picture in the United States will become increasingly cloudy.
The bishops of our country understand this and have made Hispanic vocations a priority. As we develop strategies in this area, I think it is important to highlight once again the four key areas the CARA study found to be correlated to openness to a vocation in our youth. If we desire to strengthen a culture of vocations within our Hispanic communities, the following are the areas indicated by the vocation survey that are in need of some major strategic development:
Catholic Schools. Only 3 percent of Hispanic children and teens attend Catholic grade schools or high schools. There is need for a concerted effort to increase Hispanic involvement in our Catholic schools. In this effort, I draw attention to the University of Notre Dame's Task Force on the Participation of Latino Children and Families in Catholic Schools. The task force is working to develop demand, access and the necessary leadership to increase Hispanic enrollment in Catholic schools. More efforts like these are needed.
Participation. Studies show that Hispanics have lower participation rates in religious education and parish youth groups. We have to ask ourselves, "Why is this?" Is it because priests, religious sisters, catechists and other key leaders don't speak Spanish? Not likely, as the vast majority of our Hispanic youth prefer to speak English with their peers. Language does not seem to be the primary obstacle; rather, it is a lack of familiarity with the various Latino cultures that may inadvertently give the impression to our young Hispanics that they are not welcome or should not expect to feel at home in our "integrated" parishes and schools. How do we better incorporate cultural activities, devotions and symbols into our regular programming for parish and campus youth and young adult ministry?
Encouragement. One of the richest blessings in Hispanic culture is the importance and strength of the home and the extended family. Studies show, however, that there is lower encouragement in Hispanic homes for children to consider a vocation to the priesthood or religious life. How do we encourage families—a clear strength in Hispanic culture—to help in building a culture of vocations?
Knowing someone in religious life. In comparison with other ethnic groups, Hispanic teens show similar or even higher percentages of personal familiarity with a religious sister within or outside the family. Hispanics are less likely, however, to know personally a priest either within or outside the family. Perhaps we need to think more carefully about how to help our non-Hispanic priests to become more familiar, more comfortable and more culturally competent, so that they can be truly present to our Hispanic and Latino youth and young adults.
In Search of Joy
The priority on relationship with Christ in the church has great resonance in the new evangelization for which Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI have called. The modern world seeks precisely this: to see the faith tangible in genuine Christians. Our deepest poverty, especially in our own country, is not the lack of material means but rather of spiritual riches. Before his election as pope, our Holy Father made this point in an address to catechists and religion teachers. Pope Benedict XVI said that the most profound type of poverty is "the inability of joy, the tediousness of a life considered absurd and contradictory. This poverty is widespread today, in very different forms in the materially rich as well as the poor countries. The inability of joy presupposes and produces the inability to love…. This is why we are need of a new evangelization."
In many ways, the CARA study on the consideration of a vocation by Catholic youth and young adults shows that the new evangelization is the basic foundation for a healthy culture of vocations in the church. Catechesis and good instruction are essential, but evangelization demands more. It is relational. It asks that we, as a church, focus on inviting people, especially our young people, to respond in love to the God who is love itself. It means that we accept and revel in the good news of Jesus Christ and radiate a Christian joy that is attractive and infectious.
We have a severe shortage of priests. It will get worse in the next five years. In our diocese, almost all priests are imported from other countries. Among Hispanics, virtually none are served by clergy from immigrant families. One possible explanation is the high regard for family life espoused by Hispanics. Can't have any of that with celibate clergy, mostly serving far from home. It is clearly apparent that the number one roadblock to more vocations in the USA is the issue of celibacy. Until married folk can be admitted to the priestly ranks, not much else will happen. Instead, our people will continue to be deprived of both priestly service and preaching from our own culture. And I have to agree with Dr. Good that ordaining people in their 30's, 40's and 50's would give us priests who have experienced some real life outside of the seminary.
I am in agreement with Bishop Carlson in regards to his recognized cultural shift within the church. However after reading the article, I believe that the shift is toward an ecclesial culture of 60 years ago. The vocational call is for every baptized person within the church and vocations are to be encouraged and cultivated not only for our children but for all members of the church regardless of age. The bishop's focus recalls the days of the Baltimore Catechism where marriage is held up simply as "good" and the priesthood and religious life is held even higher as "better". Nowhere in the article is mentioned that the vast majority of answered Christian vocations is married life. To live a consecrated life united to another person in love is a vocation of the highest calling. I find it difficult to listen to another "vocation talk" when we as married couples, living a life in Christ, are not even mentioned or even worse, tagged in at the end as an afterthought. This culture needs to change.
We as a married couple have also answered another vocational call by serving as a deacon couple. Again, the bishop fails to mention this pathway into clerical service to the church in his article. We as men and women who serve the church in this capacity find that this vocation is actually growing as more and more mature men and women answer God's call to service in the church and in the world. We find ourselves in silent service to a church in need of servant leaders.
We have also answered the call to religious life. My wife and I are Secular Franciscans and together in marriage live according to the precepts of St. Francis of Assisi. The trend in religious life is now growing in the area of lay participation such as third orders, associates, and oblates. Perhaps the church leadership may shift its focus to this response of mature men and women living a life in Christ with a rule and the theological virtues, forming religious communities of married people.
We as the Body of Christ need to recognize that the church is a dynamic, living organism. The Spirit is always moving within the church, the keyword is "moving". The Spirit is leading us into a new church, one with less priestly presence, one where the dynamics of education are changing, one where the ecclesial and clerical structure is shifting to more lay participation and management. If we believe that the Spirit is always with this dynamic church, should we not shift our focus to vocations for people who may have a call when they are in their 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's? The seminary may look a little different when men and women would be attending theological training to enter the priesthood and the diaconate on the weekends and answering the call to serve Christ and his church. Maybe that would be a different cultural shift, one that is already taking place in the church but remains unrecognized or even unwanted.
Dr. Timothy Good, OFS
Permanent Deacon
The Church needs to develop a path for women interested in doing church work who are not interested in becoming nuns. Prayer, liturgy and dialogue are all interesting, and people will volunteer to help. The Church refuses gifts of time and talent from the laity, offering us little to do other than charitable work, (which many of us have already spent a lifetime doing) - then the Church complains that it lacks willing hands. On the feminine side of the Church, the problems and the solutions are both obvious, but implementing a new solution to the problems will require the Church hierarchy to use what is offered in the current culture, which allows women to have both families and careers. Nuns are disappearing from the scene, for entirely logical reasons. The Church will be better off when it realizes that it needs to develop a form of participation and leadership that will attract more than 0.1% of women, instead of bemoaning the fact that a system developed in a poor, agrarian society no longer attracts women who have far better choices than before.
As a Catholic school teacher, I have experienced the joy of having a couple of students tell me that they wanted to become priests and, like the archbishop, they were in elementary school.
These were joyous times for me and I have always been proud of this fact because of what these students, and all my students, had to say about religion in school - going beyond the books (which they all have felt to be very "lame" as they put it). We do a great disservice in treating students as if they are incapable of understanding the basic tenets of Catholicism in favor of coloring pictures and not addressing their concerns regarding what they've heard and experienced.
Elementary school is precisely where a firm foundation must be laid for vocations to take root and for all students to know their Faith. They are like sponges at these ages and will absorb a lot to the point where I had 8th graders understanding the basic elements of Aquinas' Quinque Viae and 5th graders able to understand the Cardinal (Deadly) sins. For a short time, I was in a high school environment where I found there was no foundation present with the overwhelming majority of students (outside of social justice and even then they did not understand the basis for what they were asked to do). All of these schools were inner city schools.
What is most depressing is the lack of clergy support, even during Vocation Week, as well as diocesan support for vocations - current efforts are more concerned with the primacy of technology to the disregard of all else.
We need Catholic schools to survive and we need vocations, but we need to change things back to the basics.

Community Design and Health
Public health problems in the U.S., such as motor vehicle-related injuries, obesity, physical inactivity, and breathing and heart problems related to air pollution are all influenced by the design of our communities. Designing communities that encourage healthy choices is critical to improving the health and quality of life of community members. Community design and personal behaviors influence public health issues, such as injury, physical activity, obesity, and health problems due to pollution.
Community design elements include:
- transportation systems,
- public spaces, such as parks and recreation facilities,
- housing, and
- places to buy food.
These elements influence the health of the environment and personal behaviors. For example, neighborhoods that are far from everyday places, such as schools and workplaces, and have busy streets and few sidewalks may have increased air pollution from motor vehicles. These types of neighborhoods may discourage people from walking or bicycling.
Community design is an important public health issue because it is closely connected to many health and behavioral issues. Many of the public health actions used to improve one health outcome also help other health outcomes. For example, reducing the speed limit in neighborhoods can reduce the number of motor vehicle-related injuries and encourage more people to be active by make it safer to walk and bicycle.
Well-developed standards exist for some aspects of community design, such as building codes and street design for motor vehicles. But often these standards do not consider all groups equally. For example, transportation agencies routinely look at streets to determine how well they work for drivers. But official consideration for pedestrians and bicyclists is often an afterthought.
Community design may affect certain populations more than others. For example, people who cannot drive because of age, income level, or disability rely on other types of transportation. Everyone is unable to drive at some point in their lives. When the design of communities makes walking, bicycling, or taking public transportation unsafe or difficult, vulnerable populations suffer.
The primary way to promote health through community design is to make sure there is access to many types of transportation, healthy food, safe housing, and public spaces that promote health. These include access to:
- public transportation, like buses or trains,
- sidewalks and bike paths,
- stores that sell food, especially those stocked with fresh fruits and vegetables,
- safe and energy efficient housing, and
- parks and public spaces.

"Silverlink, Donobi announce merger"
"Subscribers to the local Internet service provider Silverlink recently received e-mails from the company informing them about the company's merger with Donobi, another local tech firm.Silverlink subscribers won't have to change e-mail addresses, but there will be other changes, according to Donobi President Bill Wright.It was good timing for both and I think we've created kind of a win-win-win situation. Its been a win for us in that we've been able to execute our business plan. It's been a win for the owners of Silverlink ... as we are maintaining all of their employees and the customers will win because not only will there be no disruption of service, but they should see additional services down the road.Changes customers can expect in coming months include the ability to access billing accounts online.(The billing system) will automate and streamline things that caused us problems before, said Steve Stuart, former vice president of information technology and a co-owner of Silverlink, now a wholly owned subsidiary of Donobi. Stuart now serves on an advisory board for Donobi, whose office is located on Linder Way in Old Town. Donobi also has contracted for installation of an OC3 fiber optic line to be laid in July, according to Mike King, the director of network operations for Donobi. The project will cost about $80,000 but it will bring broad-band and DSL to local customers.Donobi's focus in the past has been hosting and building Web sites and finding business solutions for small to mid-size firms. But recent mergers signal a diversification of the firm's goals. The merger with Silverlink is Donobi's second in the last 6 months - a move consistent with the business plan to grow the ISP part of the firm, according to Wright. Last September Donobi merged with NWInet, a local ISP. Silverlink carries about 2,700 subscribers and NWInet carries about 1,000, according to a source within the company. Wright and Stuart declined to disclose the financial details of the Donobi/ Silverlink deal.While mergers are seldom completed without a hitch, this deal was made easier by the fact that the two companies have similar corporate philosophies, according to Wright and Stuart. Philosophically we fit very good in that we put the customer first. We have a business to run but ... we're not just corporate. We have a family atmosphere as far as employee relations, Wright said.All six of Silverlink's employees were kept on with the new firm, which also eased tensions.It was a mixed response at first because nobody likes change ... People were concerned about where they should fit in, Stuart said. But they are starting to see that they do fit in. One of the big advantages of the merger with Donobi is that the firm had the capability to handle Silverlink's real estate accounts, which include Prudential, Windermere, Century 21 Anchor and others, Stuart said.Donobi already carried other real estate accounts and had the technological capabilities to take on others.One of the challenges for Donobi is meshing companies equipment.As we bring on other companies we find their equipment and technologies are different than ours, King said. Sometimes we take it and sometimes we buy new equipment to support the company.Donobi is committed to preserving Silverlink's dedication to customer service and Wright would like to see the firm expand into the area's premier service provider.

Served with coffee to my Sunday School Class of young couples! Responses ranged from "awesome" to "these are great" to "try these, they are really good." I'm ordering more because I like to pamper my students. May be a little pricey, but worth it. Because they are individually wrapped they are excellent for serving without being messy.

If lib lies are not countered they become accepted as truth.
If the elite liberals are brilliant at is framing issues and creating a language for each topic. What your common lib is particularly susceptible to are slogans which they can parrot and which catch on like wildfire among a massive unthinking mob. Now they have the biggest demagogue in presidential history along with a compliant and likeminded media performing social surgery on the common libs. Ill be fighting from here on out.

Arizona State Sun Devils
The Pulse: Sun Devils need a strong finish to make the dance
Every day, we at ArizonaSports.com ask our readers a question. It's the Sanderson Ford Poll Question of the Day, and it can be found midway down the right side of our home page.
Monday, we asked if the Arizona State Sun Devils were still in good shape to make the NCAA Tournament after a rough road trip in which they lost to both Colorado and Utah.
A total of 441 votes were cast, with 214 — or 49 percent — saying the Devils are still in, but need a strong finish just to make sure.
The next highest total went to a pessimistic group, with 36 percent saying the Devils are in a lot of trouble right now. Only 69 votes — or 16 percent — went to the belief that ASU has already done enough to get invited to the dance.
The Devils are currently 19-8 with a 8-6 mark in the Pac-12. Their next two games — against Stanford and California — are at home, and offer the team a chance to secure its tournament bid.

Dark Azelf Ill get to you first to some extent. You must be looking pretty good these days if you slimmed down and got cut. Your diet seems too complicated for me. How did the Duathlon go?
Congratulations on 100kms in a month Impo! Thats absolutely killing it! Also there's nothing wrong with aesthetics but still having strength to back it up is good anyway!
Oh Gymnastic rings are good fun! They are fairly expensive though, my god! Its painful on the wallet. They do build some good muscles though, very nice purchase Juicy, got any routines for them?
Destructor, I've read and heard that you shouldn't really start hitting the weights until youre like 15 or 16 but I guess if you're okay everything is fine. Do you have any workout routines or anything like that youre willing to share?
You can still use weights at a young age, just dont use heavy ones as it will damage your growth plates in your bones iirc, dont quote me on that though.
I used to be a gymnast actually, i competed at national level, rings are great to build your strength up.
Speaking of strength, i train for both strength and size. Ill train for size for 6 months and then switch to a higher weight and fewer reps to hit strength more. However on lower body i train solely for strength. Ive just never got the reasoning for having massive legs/ass unless you're a competitive bodybuilder, plus i love getting in skinny jeans lol. :x Plus on stuff like deadlifts, aka your lower back i dont see the need for size either really.
As for bolded, at least i finished lol, barely, i sort of crawled over the line. ~~
Also i look ok i guess, im alot more defined (new webcam yay) and although you cant see it on this pic i have top 4 abs showing. I think im about 11% bodyfat in this picture, it was lower lost month, verging on 9% but i decided to bulk up again but yeah here;
Yes im aware i look like ass, i just crawled out of bed haha. Ill maybe post a few more when i have time.
Also my diet isnt really complicated, i bulk up over the winter (aka now) and eat like 500 calories per day over my maintenance level to increase my lean mass as much as possible naturally, which consists of good clean foods to try and limit fat i put on (but thats unavoidable if you do it naturally), enough carbs, protein etc. Then in spring i cut up, reduce my calories to 500 below maintenance level and reduce my carbs, to lose any excess fat i may have put on over the winter whilst keeping the muscle i put on over winter.
Getting offended shows lack of emotional intelligence and overall shows that you are indeed, a stupendous rattata. But hey thats none of my business.

U.S. captain Davis Love III referred to his Ryder Cup team as "the best golf team maybe ever assembled," a surprising comment for two reasons.
This was Davis Love, not exactly known for his brash comments.
And the U.S. team isn't even assembled yet.
Two days before Love makes his final captain's pick, and a week before the Ryder Cup begins at Hazeltine, Love went on SiriusXM's "Fairways of Life" show on Friday and was asked whether the Americans have tried too hard.
He said they tend to panic after a bad round or lose momentum and are guilty at times of playing not to lose.

Tonight – January 27, 2016 – as seen from around the world, the waning gibbous moon will shine closer to the giant planet Jupiter that it did last night. Watch these two bright beauties climb over the eastern horizon a few to several hours after sunset!
Once the moon and Jupiter rise, they'll be out for rest of the night. You can't miss them. Jupiter is the brightest starlike object up there until Venus, the sky's brightest planet, makes her appearance in the eastern sky during the predawn hours.
In fact, you can view all five visible planets in the predawn/dawn sky from now until about February 20, 2016! The moon will be sweeping past all of these planets in the days ahead. Let the moon lead you to sure identifications of the planets.
All five visible planets can be seen now, in the January 2016 morning sky!
Jupiter appears starlike to the eye, and the moon looks bigger than Jupiter. But, of course, Jupiter is much larger than the moon and only appears star-like to our eyes because it is so much farther away – over 1,700 times farther away than tonight's moon. The moon lies about 1.35 light-seconds from Earth at present. In stark contrast, Jupiter looms about 39 light-minutes away.
If the giant planet Jupiter were at the same distance from us as our moon, it'd take about 40 moons lined up side by side to equal the diameter of Jupiter. More amazing, perhaps, Jupiter's disk would exceed the lunar disk by some 1,600 times.
It's with good reason that Jupiter enjoys the king planet status. Watch the moon and Jupiter shine together from early-to-mid evening until dawn!
By the way, if you're interested, look back at our January 26 post to know why the moon and Jupiter are pairing up more closely tonight than they were last night.
Bottom line: Let the moon be your guide to Jupiter, the fifth planet outward from the sun and the king of the planets, on the night of January 27, 2016! Then watch in the early morning sky as the moon sweeps past the five planets now visible there
