OSU Extension's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program – Education (SNAP-Ed) taught 836 individuals in 116 classes on nutrition, food safety, food budgeting, and food security in 2016. In addition, 600 youth and adults receiving or eligible for the USDA's SNAP benefits were reached through food pantries, health fairs and nutrition events around the county. As a result, participants were significantly less likely to run out of food at the end of the month, were more likely to make economical and healthier choices when grocery shopping, and were more likely to provide healthier meals for their families.
OSU Extension partnered with the Butler County Employee Wellness Committee to improve overall health. As a result, workplace wellness programs focusing on stress management increased. In addition, 92 people were reached through sun safety education efforts. Individuals had their facial skin and hands viewed for damage and increased awareness of how the sun and tanning beds damage skin and can lead to skin cancer.
The Development of Living Skills (DLS) program offers in-home instruction to individuals and families referred by Children Services. Instruction is given in the areas of nutrition, parenting, child development, money management and home economics. DLS provided 1,224.75 hours of teaching time to 101 clients. As a result, 21 children were reunited with their parents from foster care, and 31 at-risk children were able to remain in their parent's home, avoiding foster care or kinship care.
More than ever, youth today need a clear understanding of how to manage their finances. Real Money. Real World. (an OSU Extension signature program) gives middle and high school students an understanding of how current income and life choices affect future income. Participants learn how much to expect to pay for housing, transportation and childcare, and how to balance "wants" and "needs." This hands-on program was offered to more than 1,500 youth; and 58 volunteers staffed the simulation experience. As a result, students felt it was important to do well in school, get an education or training after high school, plan family wisely, have a plan for spending that includes both needs and wants, learn how to make wise financial decisions, and start saving money regularly
The Centers for Disease Control estimates that there are more than 76 million cases of foodborne illnesses every year. Food safety training for food service professionals is essential to public health and provides potential and current employees the opportunity to market skills and advance income. The ServSafe program provides food safety education and facilitates certification with the National Restaurant Association and the Ohio Department of Health.
Nine women attended the eight-week Annie's Program. Topics included farm management, retirement and transition, marketing, risk management, communications and financial management. All of the participants reported that they learned something new that would help them with their management of their farm enterprise.
In 2016, there were 62 4-H clubs in Butler County, which represented more than 1,193 members. This program was delivered with the help of 179 adult volunteers, who gave countless hours back to our community and youth. In 2016, two new 4-H clubs were started.
During 2016, 660 teens were mandated to attend one of 40 Butler County 4-H CARTEENS programs accompanied by a parent or guardian. This program is a partnership between OSU Extension, Butler County Juvenile Court, and the Ohio State Highway Patrol. This program is staffed by 24 teen volunteers, who gave more than 4,800 hours to the program.
During summer 2016, 15 STEM-focused programs were conducted which reached more than 500 youth. STEM curriculum educates students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics based on real-world experiences. All of the areas are integrated into a cohesive learning experience based on real-world applications.
The Junior Master Gardener program was taught by OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers. During the eight-week program, 12 youth participated in lessons about vegetable garden planning, planting and care, pest control, soil health, and invasive species. Educational outreach efforts at farmer's markets and county fair reached more than 1,300 people.
This year, 50 inner-city youth attended farm tours at Niederman Family Farm, Double J Farm, Jason Jackson's Farm and the Hamilton Urban Garden Systems. Youth had the opportunity to learn about agriculture and 4-H.
In the summer of 2016, 425 youth participated in 4-H camp and clinics.
In 2016, 32 teens served as 4-H camp counselors, completing training and utilizing life skills that they developed during camp and afterward. Counselors developed leadership and social skills, emergency preparedness, and organizational skills to provide younger youth with better learning experiences.
Suburban communities have more residents who are food insecure than urban or rural, but often the problem is hidden or misunderstood. Use of HEAL MAPPS is a community-based participatory research method that addresses perceptions of food insecurity and healthy food access through photography and global positioning systems. Five youth mappers and three adults residing within Meadow Ridge Apartments in suburban West Chester Township took pictures of community features that they perceive to help or hinder healthy food access and food security along routes that they regularly use. Working along with researchers from the OSU Food Opportunity Research Collaborative, Butler County Success, and 4-H, the mappers used the pictures and map routes to facilitate a community conversation with more than 35 stakeholders and leaders. The results of this process are resident-informed recommendations and actions around improving healthy food access and food security (see the story map at http://go.osu.edu/BeSZ.)
Master Gardener Volunteers (MGVs) are OSU Extension-trained volunteers empowered to educate others with timely research-based gardening information. The reach of the Master Gardener Volunteer program is immense. In 2016, MGVs reached countless people through media, community projects, and programs. Butler County Master Gardener Volunteers donated more than 4,700 hours last year, providing horticulture education to the public. Their volunteer efforts resulted in $94,618 worth of community service throughout Butler County.
Butler County citizens learned about agriculture in the Farm Zone building at the Butler County fair. Topics included agriculture, pollinators, where our food comes from, natural resources, science in agriculture and exploring our outdoors. Master Gardener Volunteers also staff this event with an Ask the Expert booth for gardening help. More than 3,500 fairgoers went through the building in 2016.
Proper pesticide usage following the integrated pest management method was a main focus for homeowner education. Through the horticulture hotline, newsletters, Home Horticulture Series, community outreach, and one-on-one consultation, OSU Extension – Butler County helped 1,750 homeowners make research-based decisions on pest and disease management, as well as pesticide usage in their home landscapes and gardens.
Pressure to limit the use of fertilizers is increasing. Legislative, regulatory and non-government organization activities, including legal action pertaining to nutrients in the environment, are taking place on national, regional, state and local levels. OSU Extension provided two trainings to local producers on how to incorporate the 4Rs of nutrient stewardship into their local nutrient management plan through the fertilizer certification program. A total of 95 percent of the 115 participants said they learned valuable information and they would be able to utilize this information on their farm.
Invasive species, including emerald ash borer and most recently the walnut twig beetle with Thousand Canker Disease, are of concern in Butler County as well as around the state. To better prepare citizens for best management decisions, OSU Extension – Butler County continues to lead educational efforts by providing information on how to identify species and symptoms, economic impacts, tree identification, proper controls, and regulatory laws for invasive species. More than 500 citizens were reached at local festival displays, community meetings, house visits, and with one-on-one phone consultations.
Increasing yields of agronomic crops/forages as well as correct use of pesticides was a main focus during OSU Extension pesticide applicator meetings. During 2016, 92 participants representing more than 25,000 acres in Butler County were provided up-to-date, research-based information on the safe and effective use of chemicals.
More than 500 4-H members learned how to ensure animal and food safety by attending quality assurance training led by OSU Extension and certified Butler County agricultural education teachers. Participants learned the importance of maintaining medication and treatment records, proper administration techniques, and appropriate feed processor procedures and feed tag recommendations.

While I was otherwise occupied, with things that don't really relate to this post, a lot has gone on in my absence that doesn't really make any sense. I'm gonna raise my hand right off the bat and admit that there is a lot which doesn't make any sense to me anyway (the proliferation of stupid little cars being one – smart cars? Ugh, please…) but everyone should be really proud of themselves. While I was offline you guys raised the bar. The level of crazy really went off the scale, and coming to it after the fact makes it no less mad.
I'm still completely at a loss to comprehend the Sad Puppies, even though a fair few posts written over the last couple of years mentioned
the fools those people. I've a few guesses at what's making them sad, though to the best of my knowledge there's no known cure for distemper. Also, nobody mentioned whether the puppies who were attempting to fix the Hugo Awards have themselves been fixed. Something to ponder, I suppose…
Then there is the mess which is being made of current politicians, policies and political parties, which probably deserves more words here, but I can't bring myself to watch more than a few seconds of footage at a time. I honestly don't know what the point of Nigel Farage is, other than to be a perfect character in some revived Spitting Image series, and there isn't a single member of the SNP who doesn't make my skin crawl. The US is, thankfully, much worse, so at least I can say "Guys, chill – we don't have it so bad."
I apologize to US readers, and suggest you start, y'know, calling out the racist, sexist, homophobic, isolationist bigots who are being ridiculous. Or take up rifle practice. Just sayin'. Any other time I would have found a perfect song to accompany that, but I'm really busy at the moment and Googling "Delaney Plaza comedy theme tune" is too much like hard work.
Despite not having the internet, I have been hearing some of the new songs being put out, and I can happily say that there isn't anything ground-breaking there. Where is this generation's Great Big Moment tunes? Hell, the sixties and seventies brought us a wealth of songs which continue, year in and year out, to be used in films, television and radio as great songs. It isn't just nostalgia (though that is a part of their success), but the unity of lyrics, accompaniment and imagery. I'm saddened at the prospect of a disposable musical heritage being cultivated by people whose concept of "timeless" lasts just long enough until the next album gets squeezed out.
What little television I've seen has been punctuated by my feeling like I would rather read, or take a long walk, or anything other than being insulted by rehashed versions of things I never missed in the first place. The first show I saw – from the first episode – since getting back to a semi-stable situation was The Aliens, which isn't exactly original. Actually, the word "original" shouldn't even be used in the same paragraph as that show, so diluted is the plot. And the shell suits make me think of The Scousers. Harry Enfield is probably waiting on the call to make a guest appearance.
The biggest mystery to me is Gogglebox. People have talked about it as if television had a massive shift in ideology, and NOTHING WILL EVER BE THE SAME AGAIN. I don't get it. I mean… I watched an episode on the Channel 4 website, and I read some of the reviews people have written, but the idea makes no sense to be at all. Why do I want to watch a bunch of people I don't know, who are watching television shows I don't watch? The fact that such a series can get greenlit is probably a sign that nothing will ever be the same again… We have, as a people, given up on television as a medium. Thanks.
There are more ugly magazine covers than ever in the shops, with logos that are somehow worse with each passing iteration, and – presumably – revamped interiors which are just as aesthetically challenged. I can't bring myself to look. Actually, I have glanced at some of the material on the shelves and I am glad to see the intellectually vapid "lads mags" have finally imploded in the critical mass of their own egos. Took long enough, mind you.
I completely missed everything that the BBC was going through, and I can't say – with a straight face – that it was worth sticking through everything to watch. BBC3 is gone? Meh. Maybe if, y'know, the shows weren't skewed so hard to the twentysomething market I may have raised an eyebrow, but it is no great loss. Letting go of Clarkson, however, is more of a quandary. I know he's an asshole on the show, but it is largely a character he is playing. The new show seems to be making an effort to be as bland and unwatchable as possible, so it may not last the year. Here's hoping…
Something else happened during my time away, and I'm not sure if it is completely pointless or only marginally stupid. In any event: Gotham. I know there are probably a thousand things that matter more in the world right now, but the very concept of a series which sets out the prehistory of Batman seems, to me, to be a colossal waste of time. The only thing I can foresee enjoying is the parallels the show will bring between Bruce Wayne and Wrath. As long as it doesn't go all Watchmen and weird…
To be continued.

The Express Scripts Canada 2016 Drug Trend Report shows prescription drug plans at a crossroads.
In 2016, our analyses in the 2016 Drug Trend Report revealed that:
Express Scripts Canada (ESC) pharmacists take a collaborative healthcare approach to pharmacy care by working with their patients, their patient's doctor and their prescription drug benefit plan to help create better health outcomes. What sets our pharmacists apart is that they advocate on behalf of the patient (with the patient's permission, of course) to ensure they are receiving the best possible treatment.
The Express Scripts Canada Pharmacy® provides patients with a smarter pharmacy experience by putting patients and their health first.
Depression is now the second leading cause of death for people between the ages of 15 and 29. But no one is safe from the mental anguish and inability to manage daily life that depression can cause – around the world; it affects people of every age. It can destroy relationships and make it difficult and sometimes impossible to earn a living.
Pharmacists have historically been relied upon to provide information about medication, its use and safety, and, now more than ever, they are being recognized as the medication management experts within an individual's health care team.
Canadian pharmacists' expanding scope of practice

Space Shuttle Atlantis
Photograph by NASA.
"At 11:29 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on July 8, 2011, the Space Shuttle Atlantis lit its rockets and roared into space. Four astronauts made the climb toward orbit and the International Space Station (ISS), where they will arrive on Sunday. The 135th and last flight of the U.S. space transportation system, or STS, comes 30 years after the first flight in April 1981.
"When they rendezvous with the ISS, the shuttle astronauts will help set up the Raffaello logistics module, which is filled with supplies and spare parts to sustain station operations after the shuttles are retired. The crew also will conduct the robotic refueling mission, an experiment to test tools and techniques for robotic refueling of satellites in space.
The 12-day mission is the 33rd for Atlantis."
One wonders, what function will it serve us here on earth, who will benefit, and who will lose – and who has lost because of the fortune spent on this mission…
When all the trees have been cut down,
when all the animals have been hunted,
when all the waters are polluted,
when all the air is unsafe to breathe,
only then will you discover you cannot eat money.

Flared Jeans — 5 Ways To Rock The Trend, Like Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez hopped right off the plane in Paris in the cutest outfit ever. She rocked a pair of flare jeans and we love them so much that we pulled together 5 different ways to rock the fall trend now.
Selena Gomez, 23, arrived in Paris on Sept. 25 in a totally cozy but chic outfit. Not only was she wearing a trendy little sweatshirt, she donned a pair of flare jeans that we love. You can SHOP five different ways to rock the trend here.
Selena hopped off the plane in a fitted gray Rodarte hoodie and CO flared jeans. Recently, Sels' style has been so on point and she has been chasing fashion week, while promoting her new album, Revival, which comes out on Oct. 9.
We have been seeing more and more celebs rocking flare jeans rather than skinnies recently, and now we know why. Not only are they super comfortable, they are so trendy and can dress up any outfit. Flare jeans are a tough look to pull off and many people don't think they're trendy, but they are.
Try rocking a pair with chunky heels like Sels, or you can wear plain old stilettos. You can try pairing them with a button-down blouse tucked in, or a crop top, like we have seen on Kylie Jenner, 18. Now that it's officially fall, pants are going to be a necessity and flare jeans are appropriate enough to wear to work with a white blouse and a blazer.
Flares come in all different colors and some are even high-waisted. There are endless ways to style these pants and no matter what, you will look stylish in a pair.
What do you guys think of this fall trend, will you try it?
You can shop for flare jeans on Amazon: Aeropostale Women's Tokyo Darling High-Waisted Boho Flare Jeans, Denim & Supply by Ralph Lauren Juniors Patch Flare Jean Light Wash, 7 For All Mankind Women's Petite Tailorless Ginger Flare Jean, PAIGE Women's Petite Lou Lou Flared Jean In Black Shadow, and Hudson Women's Ferris Flared Jean.

Transformation of Penicillium expansum with the pBT6 vector yielded 8 to 34 transformants per μg of DNA. Hybridization analyses revealed that homologous recombination occurred in most of the transformants. Twenty-one out of 25 transformants analysed showed hybridization patterns which were indistinguishable from that of the wild type.

Brucella spp. are facultative intracellular pathogens that have the ability to survive and multiply in professional and non-professional phagocytes, and cause abortion in domestic animals and undulant fever in humans. Several species are recognized within the genus Brucella and this classification is mainly based on the difference in pathogenicity and in host preference. Brucella strains may occur as either smooth or rough, expressing smooth LPS (S-LPS) or rough LPS (R-LPS) as major surface antigen. This bacterium possesses an unconventional non-endotoxic lipopolysaccharide that confers resistance to anti-microbial attacks and modulates the host immune response. The strains that are pathogenic for humans (B. abortus, B. suis, B. melitensis) carry a smooth LPS involved in the virulence of these bacteria. The LPS O-chain protects the bacteria from cellular cationic peptides, oxygen metabolites and complement-mediated lysis and it is a key molecule for Brucella survival and replication in the host. Here, we review i) Brucella LPS structure; ii) Brucella genome, iii) genes involved in LPS biosynthesis; iv) the interaction between LPS and innate immunity.

The pectin lyase (PL) is an industrially important enzyme since it is used for maceration and clarification in the process of fruit juice production in food industries. In order to increase the yields of pectin lyase we cloned the plg1 (pectin lyase 1) from Penicillium griseoroseum gene under the control of the strong constitutive promoter of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (gpdA) and the terminator region of the tryptophan synthetase (trpC) gene from Aspergillus nidulans (plasmid pAN52-Plg1) and transformed this construct into the P. griseoroseum strain PG63. One of the pAN52-Plg1 multi-copy transformants (strain 105) grown in culture medium containing glucose or sugar cane juice showed PL activities of 4,804 or 5,202 U ml−1 respectively, which represented 57- and 132-fold increases. In addition, the apparent specific activity of PL produced by this strain was much higher than the one observed for a commercial pectinase preparation. Evaluation of the extracellular proteins in the culture supernatant of strain 105 by SDS-PAGE showed the presence of a clear and strong band of approximately 40 kDa that probably corresponds to PL. The enzyme yields reported here demonstrate that the system we developed is able to express pectin lyase at levels comparable to, or exceeding, previously reported data.

- Kadidiatou Diani's versatility a huge asset for France
- Forward had a big hand in her side's win over Brazil
- France coach Corinne Diacre: "She's doing everything but score"
By Emma Hingant with France
Kadidiatou Diani was simply everywhere in the hosts' Round of 16 defeat of Brazil at the FIFA Women's World Cup France 2019™ on Sunday. Though forced to switch positions on a number of occasions, she never let her workrate drop and caught the eye with her tireless efforts.
The indefatigable France No11 was making her third start in four matches at the competition and is fast becoming an undisputed first choice. Her performance on Sunday was undoubtedly her most complete to date. "You might be right," she said after the hosts had secured their passage to the last eight. "I just keep trying to get better and to do my very best in every game."
Just happy to help
That was plain for all to see on Sunday, when she showcased her amazing versatility once more. In the group phase the Paris Saint-Germain player was an attacking spearhead against Korea Republic and operated out on the right against Norway and Nigeria, looking equally at ease in both positions.
"I don't play out on the left much but if the coach puts me there, I'd do all that I can to help the team out as best I could," said Diani before the start of the competition. "I don't have any great preference about where I play."
On Sunday, the 24-year-old popped up in no fewer than three different positions. After starting up front alongside Valerie Gauvin, Diani dropped out to her favoured flank when Gaetane Thiney came on. Within ten minutes she was then playing a lone role in attack when Gauvin went off, having previously set up her strike partner for France's opener after a surging run down the right.
A brace against USA
Though Diani does not see any difficulty in switching systems, France coach Corinne Diacre is only too happy to have a player like her in the Bleues ranks.
"I just use her where I need to for the team," Diacre said. "She can play in every attacking position, as she's already shown, even on the left. She's a very valuable player to have around and I think the only thing she needs to do to keep being effective is to score."
She did that twice over in a friendly against potential quarter-final opponents USA in Le Havre in January. Playing as a lone striker on that occasion, her two goals helped France claim a notable 3-1 win. If the reigning world champions beat Spain on Monday, they will pose a major threat to France's hopes of lifting the Trophy. But with the versatile Diani in their ranks, that is a threat the hosts will believe they can overcome.

Should We Ditch the Christian Music Industry?
If a day did come in which we all ditched the Christian music industry and shut it down — as in all Christian record labels and radio stations closed up shop permanently — Marc Barnes at Patheos Press, the author of the article 5 Reasons to Kill Christian Music, would be overjoyed.
This article is a formal response to Marc Barnes and his suggestion that we do away with the Christian music genre forever. It's not an unfamiliar topic to Rockin' God's House — see our article Does Christian Music Really Suck? — especially its section about the overwhelming Nashville influence over Christian music.
Marc Barnes is not a heretic nor is he anti-Christian. He wrote the article because — by all signs evident — he is an on-fire believer with a brilliant grasp of Christian theology, writing, and culture; and he desperately wants to see the music made by Christians effective and fruitful as God intended it to be.
A History of Criticism
He's not the only one who feels this way. Over the years, I've had more conversations than I can count with Christian musicians who believe that the "Contemporary Christian Music" industry (CCM) — shaped mostly by the Bible Belt major labels in Tennessee — does more harm than good to Christendom. There is a perception that Christian labels (or the bands themselves, by their own choosing) function as assembly line replicators that take the latest trends in secular music and duplicate the styles to the tee — but with the requisite amount of Christianeze slogans instead of worldly lyrics.
It is a bold article by Barnes because it is a scathing criticism of thousands of people big and small — from the assistant who gets coffee for the A&R man at the record label to the major label artists themselves. Barnes is essentially telling us all that by enabling the Christian music genre to exist, we are "degrading" the "earth-shaking, intellectual and faithful assent to the incarnation, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ," as he writes.
Ouch. Chill, bro.
That is a serious accusation. If his points have merit, we should all take it very seriously and examine ourselves. If there are problems with his argument, then an equally strong response is necessary.
Though, in all seriousness, I will confess, it does not take very long once you turn on a Christian radio station to find examples that support these stereotypes about the CCM industry: "Oh, hey, this artist sounds exactly like Katy Perry's latest electro-pop single. Weird! What a coincidence! But oh, hey, except the lyrics are Christian and generally positive. It's like Katy Perry got saved! Now my kids can listen to trendy pop music without all the junk."
I do wish Barnes would have exercised a little more empathy towards parents. I have a daughter and, frankly, I get it why Christian labels do what they do. There are parents out there who would do anything to get their daughters away from the sultry pop divas and the messages conveyed in their lyrics and lifestyles. If there's a Christian artist out there who, by their stylistic imitation, can satisfy their teenybopper daughter's preference of music and make it easier for their daughter to stay away from unedifying content, then those parents will buy that CD in a heartbeat.
When God Redeems the Work of our Hands
From an artist's perspective and not a parent's, I found myself nodding enthusiastically to Barnes's article and thinking "Amen! What a revelation!" — and then, with a screeching halt in my mind, I stopped dead in my tracks at one of his final points.
Before I get into that, I'd like to pay a little more respect to Barnes. What he wrote was truly excellent. I do hope you read it. He makes some profound points, like this gem here:
Music should blossom from Christianity as vows from love. It is the poetic expression of reality as experienced by the Christian, not the expression of Christianity forced into poetry. If we are going to sing that "Jesus Saves" it should not be because we are writing a Christian song, but because Jesus really does save, and we are writing a good song. In short, we should not write "Christian" music at all. We should be Christians and make incredible, authentic music.
Barnes's article has prompted some serious soul-searching. After all, the very premise of this website's name — Rockin' God's House — is rooted in the context of a Christian music industry.
But then I came to one of his final points. I will quote it for you directly:
4. As a label, Christianity becomes an excuse for mediocrity.
Isn't all singing about Jesus inherently valuable?
No. Love covers a multitude of sins, but a cliched refrain of his Most Holy Name will not cover the fact that your melody, chord progression, and overworked synth track are recycled versions of Nickleback's last single.
Writing a song under the mindset that the Holy Spirit will use that song to "reach people" is a denial that the Holy Spirit uses you to reach people, and has given you the emotional depth, the poetic imagination, the enlightened intellect, and the spiritual sensitivity to write a damn good song.
Songwriting is a minor gift of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit becomes an excuse for mediocrity — the divine shoulders on which we dump a work of poetry, the craft of musicianship, and our own authenticity — we aren't conversing with the Spirit, we're making excuses, and committing a bizarre sort of heresy. We are saying that God is a magician who makes songs, books, poetry, art, blog posts and all the rest meaningful and life-changing after we've created them.
We are the ones who, in participation with God, make art awesome. If your music is bad, and you're praying that God will do something great with it, stop praying and make better music.
Actually, making our art "meaningful and life-changing after we've created [it]" is exactly what God does, Marc — even for those who are not loving God with all of their heart, mind, and strength and giving it their all when they write a song. It's a part of redemption. God often redeems the work of our hands. And, yes, God even does that for the Christian songwriter who lazily phones it in and hurriedly writes his umpteenth song with whatever cheesy Jesus phrase pops in his head because he's trying to meet a deadline for his Christian record label; yes, even he is a target for God's "magic," as you put it.
Heretics or Vessels of God's Extravagant Grace?
I studied music in college, but I'll be honest: I've phoned it in before with "Christian songs" that I've written. I used to write quick little songs and put them on a CD to encourage certain family members. There was one particular song that I hastily wrote in a lazy fashion. It was stock full of cliches. I put little to no real effort in that song. I wasn't even in a very worshipful or pleasant mood when I wrote it. It was very generic in its structure and style. But wow did one particular person love it. It was life-changing for them. It impacted their life for years. God used it in amazing ways in that person's spiritual maturity.
God redeemed what was a terrible work of art — according to general cultural standards of "good" art — and He made it "meaningful and life-changing after it was written." If you believe that is possible, according to Barnes, you are committing a bizarre form of heresy.
However, I get the broader point he is making: we should never use God's ability to redeem a poorly constructed work of art as an excuse to be lazy. But there's something problematic in what Barnes wrote, especially in his answer to this question:
"Isn't all singing about Jesus inherently valuable?"
Barnes's answer is "no." It is not inherently valuable.
At first, I agreed with him. Lazy, boring rip-offs of secular music do not automatically gain artistic value if they insert the Name Above All Names into their lyrics. Barnes is saying that Christians have an entitlement mindset: we don't need to work hard to write the best possible music or take artistic risks. As long as we throw Jesus in there, we're good. "In fact," we say, "you should feel obligated to like my music because it's all about Jesus. I don't need to work for your approval of my art."
That's a wrong attitude. I agree with Barnes. This is all fine and well until Barnes jumps from artistic value and broadens the definition of "valuable" to include ministry value:
…we're making excuses, and committing a bizarre sort of heresy. We are saying that God is a magician who makes songs, books, poetry, art, blog posts and all the rest meaningful and life-changing after we've created them.
"Life-changing" is the key word. Barnes is stepping over the line into the context of ministry value. This is where I must respectfully disagree.
We can talk all we want about the lack of artistic imagination in the Christian music industry, but in the context of ministry — from my own experience — God seems to have little regard about what we deem to be artistically valuable. Of course, as His creatures, He does care about what we do. After all, the tiniest sparrow doesn't fall without Him knowing it. He cares about every little detail of our lives. But, frankly, even our greatest artistic achievement is a finger-painting on God's fridge. In the realm of artistic activity, I believe He cares more about the heart, not our genius or technique. Where was our heart when we created that work of art? How was that art created in the context of our relationship with Him? Barnes's articles make fantastic points in that regard. Are we really loving God with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength with everything we produce in the Christian music industry? Does having a "Christian" music industry with all its traditions of men and cultural traits inhibit our ability from giving God the very best art we can offer? Do I have any habits of lazy thinking in my art? Do I need to hit the books and learn more about what possibilities exist in the world of music composition? Should I try and create something wholly original instead of doing a pale imitation of Coldplay or [fill-in-the-blank-trendy-band]? These are questions we should always be asking, and we should study Barnes's article as we ask those questions.
But in the context of ministry value and what He uses to transform lives, God is not desperately reliant on our artistic subtleties and sophistication to convict and change the hearts of people. Marc criticizes the radio station K-Life, but God has used those "positive" K-Life cliche-ridden songs to stop non-believers from committing suicide. They just happened to flip on the radio at the right moment. I've heard the testimonies. Not all atheists automatically tune out songs on the radio if they're not worthy of a GRAMMY like Marc's example of Mumford & Sons. Even though many of the "recycled" Christian songs bother people for their blatant (and sometimes unconvincing) rip-off of secular music, God does use them to preach the Good News — despite their simple, non-intellectual cheesy language, as some describe it — and He does use them to save people's lives.
Who are we to tell God what He can or can't use to change someone's life?
In Search of Authenticity
In his criticism of K-Life, Marc writes: "Music should be our beautiful, authentic expressions of reality, and there is nothing authentic about 'positive' Christianity."
But who are we to say whether any one song on the Christian radio is an "authentic" expression of the reality that the songwriter has experienced in Christ? Yes, we live in the "Valley of Tears" that C.S. Lewis wrote about after his wife died, and we do serve a Suffering God; but we also serve a King who told us to "be of good cheer." And, honestly, I have known people who have encountered very little suffering in their lives, and — not taking this for granted — they have written songs genuinely thanking God for the unusual protection they have experienced in situations. If you didn't know the person, you might hear the song and write it off as "unrealistic" and Pollyannic.
I do realize these is a big difference between a masterpiece and a poorly written song. And, frankly, the secular world does produce some incredibly powerful songwriters who can capture all of the little colors, shadows, and realities of life on earth in ways that make your jaw drop (in a good way). The Christian industry's bar for what makes a good song might be a little low. We should do some serious soul-searching in that regard. Marc would really prefer to see Christians writing songs on the highest level possible — as would I. For example, Bob Dylan has been praised for writing lyrics with incredible literary power. Some professors study his songs as literature. So why can't Christians produce literature in their lyrics as well? Why do we have to use overly simplistic language that sounds like a poem written in elementary school? Why can't we have the depth of John Keats or John Donne or Shakespeare in our lyrics? Why can't our corporate expression of our 2000-year-old faith be, well, a little deeper and a little less juvenile in its technique and presentation? I get where Marc is coming from. It's incredibly frustrating. There have been times when I have slammed the radio knob in frustration to turn the Christian station off.
I'm not saying that I'm the greatest songwriter in the world, but I've certainly heard what can be done when a highly disciplined, well-read artist pours all of his heart and artistic brilliance into a masterful creation that presents the glory of Christ in an astonishing, thought-provoking, wholly original way. I've seen others do it, in other words. I've tasted the fruit of the highest art when a Christian full of the Holy Spirit makes it. It is truly something to behold. It is something you don't forget. Why can't the Christian music industry as a whole shoot for the same depth?
But all of this goes out the window in the context of what God can use to change lives. Sure, maybe a guy writes an unimaginative, banal song that comes across as inauthentic; but maybe that really was his best effort and maybe his heart was genuinely full of praise to God. Why shouldn't God honor that? And, even if the guy wrote a poor song, even if his heart wasn't sincere at all and he was being lazy, who says God can't give ministry value to it? I've seen Him do it before. He is very resourceful, and He uses whatever materials are present to accomplish His purposes. After all, he used King Cyrus — a heathen who had no belief in the Most High — to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
As deflating as it might sound, I believe God has a much smaller opinion of our collective artistic brilliance than we realize — at least as it correlates to ministry and changing lives. We tend to become self-important with how well our art expresses "the human experience." I don't see an ironclad correlation between artistic quality and ministry power. Ministry effectiveness is more likely correlated with prayer. Just ask Charles Spurgeon and his giant team of prayer warriors who interceded feverishly for him during every one of his sermons. Sure, when I heard Mumford & Son's "I Will Wait" on the radio for the first time, I broke down in tears because of the sheer power of the song. But I have had the same reaction to music that was absolutely horrible from an artistic view point. Why? Because God's Spirit was working in my heart, and a ton of people were praying for me. At that point, I didn't need to hear some poetic masterpiece from an artistically vibrant, GRAMMY-winning band. Just one singer praising Jesus with cliches I've heard a thousand times in an out-of-tune voice was enough to cave my heart in — even when the sound system started feeding back because the sound guy didn't know what he was doing. In that moment, somehow the cliches stopped being cliches.
Please bear in mind, I am not saying that we should accept the status quo and feel good about making generic, unoriginal music. I wish every Christian music producer and label executive in the world would read Marc's article and think long and hard about what they're doing. But when you correlate artistic value with ministry value, that's a problem.
There's Always a Bigger Fish
I also do not agree with Marc's framework for determining if a band has somehow achieved the status of "good music." As he writes here in his discussion questions:
…does it follow that Marcus Mumford writes "Christian" music?
(d) No. Marcus Mumford writes good music. Mumford & Sons did not win album of the year for each of their albums in spite of the Christian content of their lyrics. They are not the rising generation's most universally beloved band because they managed to effectively disguise their Christianity. The Christian content of their lyrics springs from an authentic source. Their music does not strive to be "Christian music". Marcus is a Christian and his songs reflect his experience of reality. Because there is no need whatsoever to conform to a genre of Christianity, Mumford & Sons have utterly no need of cliches, and are free to express the brutal truth of Christianity in all her darkness and joy, using a language entirely real and universal. Thus thousands of drunk hipsters who would laugh at a chorus that shouts about shouting about letting all the world know that Jesus saves…will praise Jesus at a Mumford & Sons show.
Like Marc, I also think that Marcus Mumford writes good music. However, it is from this higher branch that we then turn our eyes to survey the Christian music industry and call it generic and unoriginal.
But there are always bigger fish that come along.
When I attended the University of California, Santa Barbara and earned a B.A. in Music Composition, I studied some of the most advanced, creative composition techniques around: everything from Beethoven and Mozart to 12-tone serialism and phase shifting minimalism — even a genre called microsound, which is supported by advanced computer engineering. MIT geniuses, like my former professor Curtis Roads who was featured in Wired magazine, compose microsound. Curtis Roads has been working on the same piece for 20 years. If Tony Stark had become a composer instead of Iron Man, he would've become Curtis Roads. None of these music professors would consider Mumford & Sons "good" music. Interestingly, I have heard these professors use the same language to describe big-time secular artists that Marc used to describe Christian music in his article.
In other words, some of the most intelligent composers alive today would scoff at the notion that Mumford & Sons or any artist who receives airplay on mainstream radio — whether secular or Christian — is "good music."
When we try to define "good" artistic value from a human perspective — not even looking at how small our achievements are in God's eyes — there is always endless debate and disagreement. In my college days, the students in the Ivory Tower of music composition obsessed over it. Even when we all came to some consensus, our firmly held beliefs were shifting sands. Soon some other trend in music composition — some mind-blowing work from an obscure genius — would come and sweep all our opinions away, and the debate would begin anew.
Sisyphus would start pushing the rock back up the hill.
"One man's artistic trash is another man's spiritual treasure."
Marc writes: "We are the ones who, in participation with God, make art awesome. If your music is bad, and you're praying that God will do something great with it, stop praying and make better music."
His advice is half-right, in my opinion. Yes, make better music. Give God your best. But do not stop praying or asking God to do something great with your efforts, even with the work that was lazy or wasn't your best. You might have written the worst song in the world, but you never know whose life it might change. One man's artistic trash is another man's spiritual treasure. Never stop believing that God can use even your worst efforts to touch the lives of others.
Never stop relying on God's miraculous grace to turn your puny loaves of bread into a feast for thousands.
And, despite any criticisms, Marc's article on Patheos.com is truly excellent, and it has been very challenging to consider. We should never make excuses for poor artistic efforts, and I can't help but wonder what would happen if artists like Jeremy Camp, tobyMac, Kirk Franklin, or Colton Dixon left their Christian record labels and took Marc's advice: enter the secular fray and make great music with a Christian worldview as its anchor point — even if they don't overtly say "Praise Jesus" in every song or call their songs "Christian music."
I will be mulling over the points of his article for a long time to come, and I hope you will do the same.

Salvation Army focuses on planned giving.
By Todd Cohen
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — In addition to the money its local corps raise through outright gifts, the Salvation Army in the Carolinas has stepped up efforts to secure deferred gifts from donors through wills, trusts and other planned-giving strategies.
The Charlotte-based North and South Carolina Division, the third-largest in the organization's 13-state Southeast territory, has provided planned-giving services for more than 20 years, says Ron Aricco, the division's senior director of planned giving.
Those services mainly have consisted of providing information about planned giving to individuals considering gifts to benefit the Salvation Army.
While each local Salvation Army corps provides local social services, the Charlotte divisional office employs four planned-giving professionals to work with donors planning gifts to local corps.
Aricco launched a new service to provide free estate-planning services to any individuals, not only those considering gifts to the Salvation Army.
Those services, including seminars, a correspondence course, brochures and one-on-one consulting, represent "institutional advertising" for the Salvation Army, Aricco says.
The strategy is to "find ways we can bring the Salvation Army to the forefront of individuals' minds, so that they would think of us when they have a charitable intent," he says, emphasizing that the Salvation Army does not provide legal or tax advice as part of its estate-planning services, and does not use them to solicit gifts.
"One of things we're very careful about at our seminars is to make it as non-commercial as possible," he says. "It is not a fundraiser."
Total endowments for the Carolinas division, which has raised more than $80 million in planned gifts not yet received, total more than $7 million.
The division in the past four years has sponsored roughly 50 seminars, typically attended by about 25 people, mainly seniors.
The seminars examine basic elements of estate planning, and offer suggestions about how to select lawyers, tax-preparers and financial advisers.
If an individual needs basic estate-planning documents such as a power of attorney or living will, for example, a lawyer who practices family law likely could handle the matter, Aricco says.
But if an individual has a more complicated estate that might involve complex trusts, he says, it would be more appropriate to hire a tax attorney, whose fee likely would be higher because the work involves more specialized expertise.
The correspondence course consists of five lesson plans the Salvation Army mails to individuals over five weeks, plus an organizer to help them sort out financial data for their families.
The Salvation Army provides a "Legacy of Love" brochure that outlines steps an individual can take to design an estate plan, describes different ways in which funds can be distributed, and includes common estate-planning documents.
With the American Society of Charter Life Underwriters estimating that 60 percent Americans who need a will don't have one, he says, "estate planning is something many people put off until too late."
And while numerous strategies are available that can reduce taxation, probate and administration costs, he says, "procrastination results in estates paying far greater costs than they really need to and leaving less to heirs."

Dr Rowley calls on public to reject racism
Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley urged the public to reject racism, which he said is 'alive and flourishing'.
In a Twitter post on Sunday Dr Rowley referred to 'audio clips' which were being circulated, saying racism is alive.
"The audio clips, which have now been widely circulated, tell us that racism is alive and flourishing as hate in some quarters. Let us be alert to it and REJECT IT in all its manifestations," he said.
The comments come after a viral post which was shared via social media in which a woman was heard complaining to a cable company representative that her regular television programmes had been replaced by a national address by Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley.
The customer said she didn't want to listen to any "stinking n***a" and said she paid for her "Indian shows".
"Why you have to cut the Indian show and put on that stupid local thing for? I sign up for the service I didn't sign up to watch no stinkin' *n****a," the woman said.
Former minister and opposition member Devant Maharaj has called on the company to explain the leak.
"There is an reprehensible audio recording circulating on social media....the vulgar recording should be roundly condemned if verified."
"The recording is no doubt being used for political propaganda as the caller was racists and derogatory in the description of the PNM."
"It is unlikely that the caller herself would leak such an offensive recording and it is equally unlikely that (the company) will allow its employee to leak such a recording. Therefore it is either the recording is PNM political propaganda aimed at attacking the UNC using race, or that (the company) has been so compromised and co-opted by the PNM that calls that can be used for political purposes will be used.
"All calls made to the number given in the recording goes to voice mail indicating that it may be an out of service number. (The company) has a corporate responsibility to indicate in the public interest if the recording is real. If the recording is real then it should be referred to the police," Maharaj said.

World One War: 'Chauchat', France's Machine Gun Failure
Credited with being one of the worst Machine Guns of the First World War, the Chauchat (pronounced 'Show-Shah') was a light Machine Gun used by the American and French Army during and after World War One.
The Machine Guns formal designation from the French Army was 'Fusil-Mitrailleur MLE 1915 CSRG'. The weapon was also known as the FM Chauchat or 'Gladiator'.
The Machine Gun was one of the first light machine guns designed to be carried and used by a single operator, without the need for a tripod or a gun crew. The Chauchat set the mark for subsequent light machine gun designs.
The gun comprised of a pistol grip, in-line stock, a large magazine and a selective fire control. In total between 1915 and 1922 over 200,000 were produced in a number of variants. The weapon weighed 20 lb., was 45 inches long and the barrel length was 18.5 inches.
The gun fired 8x50mm Lebel ammunition as well as other variants. The Magazine held 20 rounds. The gun had a long recoil which was gas assisted. The gun fired at a rate of 240 rounds per minute and had a muzzle velocity of 630 m/s. The guns maximum range was 2000 meters.
Although designed and built in France, a variant was designed to accommodate the U.S. .30-06 round, the variant became known as the CSRG M1918. This variant was specifically designed for the A.E.F. Despite America's use of the weapon, the M1918 completely failed to be reliable. Conversely the Americans used the M1915 in place of the M1918.
The Chauchat's performance drew mixed reviews…
Due to the stagnation of Trench Warfare by 1916, General Petain requested a survey to be put before all French units in regard to the operational quality and use of the Chauchat. The overall conclusion of the survey was that due to the open magazine of the weapon caused the weapon to be defective and caused high numbers of misfires. Loose earth, mud and water entered through the side opening of the magazine. The muddy conditions of the trenches were no place for a weapon of this kind. The long recoil of the weapon also caused problems. The guns produced by Gladiator also shot too low and to the right of the intended target. The issue of overheating was another factor which made the weapon ineffective. Due to continuous firing, the recoil barrel sleeve became that dilated that it refused to return forward until the gun had cooled.
Following the armistice in 1918, the French replaced the Chauchat with the Mle 1924 and later the 1924/29. The American forces in the later stages of World War One and after the armistice, replaced the weapon with the Browning Automatic Rifle or BAR.
Since the weapons introduction in 1908, its poor reputation and short service have led many military historians and experts to condemn the weapon as being the "the worst machine gun" ever used in warfare.
Although the weapon was vilified the French did successfully test various dirt-proof fully enclosed magazines in May and June 1918. Despite the new variants being stronger, the magazines were still open-sided. The initial two man machine gun team eventually grew to four by late 1917.
During the Germans spring offensive of 1918, the war progressed from the trenches into open land, which in turn made the Chauchat more reliable.
During the same period, French Infantry Regiments were re-organised into 18 man combat groups or 'Demi-Sections de Combat'. These new units were made up of a full Chauchat squad, four rifle-grenade specialists and eight ordinary soldiers. The introduction of new tactics, deployment and numbers of units showed that they were a success, despite it being in late 1918.
Overall, although the re-development of tactics in using French Chauchat machine guns, so late in the war, the gun was still considered a failure by many allied forces. Further to this, despite the re-design of the weapon, the weapon failed to eliminate the problems caused due to its design i.e. the open magazine. Due to the weapons unreliability, the Americans introduced one of their greatest, most effective and longest serving weapons, the BAR, which saw service from 1918 until the 1960s.

Very helpful thanks
Another great example of your well researched and very informative work. I love the photo of the Americans being greeted by the French couple...their faces say so much more than words ever could.
Now, I'm not really a fan on guns...they just don't appeal to me. However I am a bit of a history nut and those video's are amazing - nice choice.
You just couldn't imagine living in those trenches knowing that your guns are dud's and praying the axis don't realize it.
I also have to say - now I'm really showing my young naivety - that for all the information I have ever come across, all the books I read, all the documentaries and conversations I've had...I'm embarrassed to admit it - that I never actually made the connection between machine guns and trenches. I knew that there would have been a logical reason for trenches, knew that it was gun related...but never actually realized that this was the turning point in history - the machine gun was responsible for this change. Voted and enjoyed.
PS - I don't suppose that you showing off in the second video lol

Black Hen Music ……………
Fantastic pure country from Canadian artist Matt Patershuk, a global country star just waiting to happen
Matt Patershuk's second album, produced by award-winning Steve Dawson at the helm at his studio in Nashville, exposes a wonderful baritone that belongs to a different time, a breath of fresh air to much of today's conveyor belt country music. Think Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Kristofferson and John Prine territory. A real find. Every syllable, every word, every nuance of these 11 self-penned songs is honest and believable.
Every track resonates deep inside, the emotional connection and inner calm it creates is not to be underestimated. He will get under your skin. He is the real deal. Listening to Matt's voice and this unashamed country record, reminded me of the recent chat I had with the legendary Loretta Lynn, about how hard it is to find real country on the radio these days. How it is all pop and if it doesn't have a pick up truck or a tractor in the lyric, it ain't gonna get played. Well Ms Loretta, please let me introduce you to Mr Patershuk and his glorious album.
Matt's vocal has an audible ache to it, a yearning, an honesty, zero pretence and as natural as the snow on the Canadian Rockies. It represents a reserve and a toughness, but there is softness and tenderness too beneath the surface. The songs document turning points or uncomfortable interludes in their subject's lives. Most unusual topic of any song must go to Pep The Cat Murdering Dog, an apparently true tale (get it?) of Pep the black Labrador, sent to the State Penitentiary in 1927 for killing the State Governor's wife's cat! Woof justice? (Sorry.)
I love the sentiment in Little Guitar, You can't make a fist when you're playing guitar, singing songs about your Red River Home.' Music being the last bastion of sadness. Matt's own guitar has survived since it was built in 1946. Harviestown and the title cut, I Was So Fond Of You, both touch on personal tragic loss, when his talented artist sister Clare was killed by a drunk driver in 2013. I know how that feels; my 42 year old sister-in-law lost her life in the same way some years ago. Such a terrible waste.
It is patently clear that substance matters here over style, but nothing comes across as self indulgent. Nothing.
Mike Bub on upright bass, Gary Craig on drums, Fats Kaplin on fiddle and Ana Egge's backing vocal, provide the oh so perfect icing on Matt's beautifully baked musical cake, of which there are many layers.
Just like the best of Mary Berry's mouth watering creations; you will want more. Best country album of 2016 thus far for me, and very hard to beat. Simon Redley www.mattpatershuk.com

Acquire the data you could make the most knowledgeable selections by accessing our intensive portfolio of data, analytics, and experience. Sign in to the services or products heart of your choice. Yeah, yeah, yeah – 485 hp vehicles with 434 lb-ft of torque and AWD traction ought to be blisteringly fast when pointed straight. But the GT-R weighs over three,800 kilos. Can the near two-ton porkster mechanically deal with the twisty stuff? Simply put: Sure. But 'handles' will not be even the fitting word. Dispatch, conquer, dominate, tear asunder, murder – that's it – the GT-R murders corners lifeless. Beginning with the donk-sized tires (255/forty R20 in entrance, 285/35 R20 out again), transferring to the retuned suspension and ending with the innards of a Swiss watch-fancy AWD system, the GT-R has world-class Stickum.
If you don't wish to take your mechanic's word that a restore or upkeep merchandise is necessary, ask the mechanic to physically show you the problem, professionals say. Granted, you run the risk of not absolutely greedy what they're stating on the automotive, however their willingness to do so can be a signal of sincere communication. Equally, if they substitute components, make sure they offer you the previous ones. It isn't that you will have much want for that used timing belt, however you may have peace of thoughts knowing that the repair was finished, plus you can see with your own eyes if the belt was cracked, damaged or worn," says James Garnand, a board member with the Neighborhood Auto Repair Professionals (NARPRO), an Arizona-based mostly marketing association.
The irony here is the Demon isn't even the quickest automobile you can buy. A lot of the supercars out there will reliably entice 137-141 in non-public arms, meaning that they are going to match a Demon on the end of the quarter-mile and steam away afterwards due to the smaller holes they punch within the air. Add motorcycles to the combination and issues get downright foolish. My Kawasaki ZX-14R will beat the Demon to the quarter-mile mark handily, with a trap speed 22 mph higher — and this can be a car that has no seatbelts or stability control in any respect. Whereas the ZX-14R is the current King of the Streets, threatened only by the supercharged H2 additionally bought by Kawasaki, the number of methods you may trap one hundred forty five mph or better for $15,000 or much less is fairly long. The old FZ1 I purchased for $1,800 can trap 139 with bolt-ons. That factor doesn't even have anti-lock brakes.
The automobile, or any motorized vehicle, is such a fixture in most of our lives that we take for granted that someone designed it for optimum effectivity and minimum cost. Automotive engineers develop components and methods for vehicles (automobiles, bikes, and heavy automobiles) that provide nice customer value and satisfaction at an reasonably priced worth whereas growing their employers' profitability. Automotive engineers create new or improved designs for all elements of a automobile utilizing pc-aided design expertise. They're responsible for analyzing and offering inventive and technically-feasible options to all problems which are encountered through the production of the vehicle.
Within the banking sector, share of public sector was ninety two.2 {ff1477931639478e4a7f850e98797f461454529ac6c42f5993642786d6a750cc} in complete property, while the remaining belonged to international banks as home personal banks didn't exist at that time. Structure of non-financial institution financial establishments was extra skewed with a hefty share of development finance establishments (all in public sector) at seventy eight.6 percent. Share of investment banks, leasing and modaraba firms remained small, despite their inception from early to mid 1980s. With these characteristics, monetary construction at the finish of FY90 didn't provide a degree enjoying discipline for competitors and progress.
