- Make a reservation before 8:00pmOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/15/2014When making your reservation please consider that the Washington inn is very busy and even though you have a reservation for a specific time you will have to wait. We had an 8:30 reservation and at 8:30 they were still backed up seating the 8:15 reservations. We were not seated until almost 8:45 and by the time the waiter came to our table it was almost 9:00 PM. The restaurant was so busy that by the time our appetizer was served it was almost 9:30--way too late for an enjoyable dinner. By that time, the air conditioner was already off and we had to ask our waiter to turn the air back on as it was uncomfortably warm in the packed dining room.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Love every visitCloudyDined on 8/14/2014While you may have to wait in the busy summer months ( even if you have a reservation) there is a reason. The Washington Inn is awesome!

- Dinner treatEasy2pleaseDined on 8/14/2014We arrived ahead of our reservations and had a drink in The Wine Bar. Lovely vibe and drinks were good. Our table for two was located in the porch. Our server was professional and handled the busy room easily. The appetizers were good..scallops and corn chowder soup. The soup was lukewarm. An appetizer of scallops was very good. The pork chop and the crab cakes for the main courses were amazing. We had no room for dessert but wished we had. The ability to valet park added to a wonderful night. We will come back many times. An elegant place without being stuffy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- anniversary dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/14/2014Great dining on Thursday night. Arrived early for reservation after a day in Cape May. They seated us and we had a fabulous meal.

- Fine meal!Petite4Dined on 8/14/2014Most pleasant setting with well prepared dishes and friendly, knowledgeable service. Ordered the extremely well-made seared scallops with succotash appetizer, followed by a thick, moist, local swordfish steak. I requested a slight alteration to the swordfish's preparation and it was provided unhesitatingly. My companion had the Oysters Rockefeller and the rack of lamb and was equally pleased. Would definitely return. We also enjoyed the 15 minute walk back and forth to our motel on the beach with no need to drive, although there is valet parking available. Also has a full bar, unlike many restaurants at Cape May!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

No excuse for the tepid food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- What more could you ask for?VinceDDined on 8/7/2014The Washington Inn is at the high end of Cape May dinning. We are there 3 or 4 times a season, especially with visiting friends. Was there Thursday night and it again confirmed my feeling that it is Manhattan quality and Cape May relaxed. The service was professional and friendly. You have trouble deciding which of the menu items to order because they all have something special to offer. Local ingredients, specialty producers, seasonal specialties. They have a deep and reasonably priced wine list. I couldn't decide what wine to order with a Grilled Sword fish, prepared with a Sicilian preparation. I asked the owner/ Sommelier for help. He suggested a wonderful Italian red which I had never heard of. The wine was perfect and cost under $50.Special Features:

While there are lots and lots of restaurants that say that they are the place for a memorable epicurean experience while at the shore, this is the only place I've visited that truly lives up to the reputation - a top notch meal with top notch service at prices that are similar to lesser establishments that purport to do the same.

(Better Know a City)
Thursday, April 30, 2009
Once- again-it's- Golden -Week here in Japan, the week where the whole country is on Spring Break at once.
I have some bad memories of being stuck in endless traffic jams during Golden Week in years past. So, this year I decided to try and avoid the crowds as much as possible by going to out of the way deserted country towns.
Enter Oyama, population 2,000.
Oyama is one of the towns bordering Hita (and in fact during the town mergers it was officially incorporated into part of Hita.) And, during -the times- I stayed in Hita, I would often drive through Oyama when I was out sight seeing.
But, I never spent a whole day there exploring it top to bottom. So here we go.
Starting from Nakatsu, it was shortly after 9 by the time I arrived in Oyama.
The first stop was the rest area alongside the road, called Mizube no Sato Oyama. It was a typical countryside roadside rest area. There were countryside food and vegetables for sale, a map of the local attractions, and a restaurant.
It was also right alongside the river, and there was a nice walking path along the river, and a small bridge leading to a small island in between two streams of the river.
The road stop was moderately busy. Technically it was not a public holiday, although many private companies will give their employees the whole week off for Golden Week. Seeing how busy the rest area was at this early hour in the morning, I was slightly worried I wasn't going to escape the crowds after all. But this turned out not to be a problem. Aside from the rest area on the main road, nowhere else in Oyama was remotely crowded.
After wandering back and forth for a while along the river, I got back in my car and followed signs up the mountain to "Okubodai Bairin Park" and "Hibikinosato".
I had no idea what either of these places were, I was just following road signs.
Bairin Park turned out to be just a walk through plum tree orchards. It was a very pleasant scene, as much for the plum trees as for the views of the surrounding mountains in all directions.
I was kind of expecting Hibikinosato would be a nature park or a hiking trail after seeing the signs for it. To my disappointment, it was more of a resort area, with a liquor store, a restaurant, and a Japanese hot spring. I wasn't really in the mood for any of those things. Although I have to admit, if I were going to build a resort like that, I couldn't think of a more beautiful location up on a green mountain surrounded by other mountain cliffs and overlooking a plum tree orchard.
There was a small park around Hibikinosato, so I walked around that for a while. There were steps leading down the mountain, so I followed those just to see where they would lead.
It lead me down the mountain side to a small neighborhood of houses. I walked through the neighborhood, and accidentally frightened a small child out front sweeping the walkway. He took one look at me, dropped the broom, and ran to his mother.
I climbed back up the stairs and back to the Hibikinosato park. There was another set of stairs leading up to a small plateau on the top of the mountain. There a small park had been created with green grass, and even a wooden pavilion. And I could get a great view of Oyama town below.
There was a small plaque there saying that Oyama town had renewed it's friendship with an Israeli town in 2000. There was also a stone that (if I read the Japanese correctly) indicated that some of the trees in this garden had been a gift from the Cecilienhof Palace (W), and had been in the presence of Truman, Churchill, and Stalin at the Potsdam conference in 1945.
Wow, sometimes you never know what you might find out in the middle nowhere in the Japanese countryside.
I returned to my car, and continued down the main road (212) alongside the river.
The drive along the river through the countryside of Oyama was very beautiful, although it didn't give me a lot of places to stop and take pictures. At one point there was a small shoulder by the river next to a small bridge, and I pulled over here to read my book a bit and eat some of the food I had packed with me.
I'm sorry to say that once I got back in my car and continued to follow this road, I came to a beautiful mountain which was being carved up to provide stones for concrete. One sees this in the Japanese countryside with depressing frequency.
The river was dammed up at a couple different points. The first small dam I stopped by didn't have any signs by it, but a sign along the road nearby read "Oyama dam" so I assumed that was its name. (This would later cause me brief confusion when I encountered the real Oyama dam--still under construction).
Next, and far more impressive, was the Matsubara dam. This had a parking lot next to it and lots of opportunities to take photographs. I spent a good 45 minutes here walking around the dam.
After this, having driven the entire length of Oyama (at least as far as the main through road was concerned) I wasn't quite sure what to do next. So, I decided to do some old fashioned walking around. I drove back towards the city center, parked my car in an empty lot, and just decided to walk the streets a bit.
As with most small towns in Japan, Oyama has very little downtown to speak of. There is a elementary school, a post office, a town hall, a convenience store, and a couple stop lights.
If you get out of your car and walk around a little bit you will discover something you can't see from the road: there is also a very nice footpath going along the river. The path is lined with leafy trees. On the right side you walk past rice fields, on the left side you can see the natural beauty of a mountain river winding its way through Oyama valley.
As I walked through the town, I made a brief stop at the town hall to see if I could pick up any sight-seeing pamphlets on Oyama.
The town hall itself was open, but just barely. There were a few people there, but most of the lights were off and it seemed like a ghost town. And I didn't find any pamphlets.
Of all the town halls I've been to so far, this one was the most dead. Perhaps this was because it was Golden Week. (Although the 30th was technically a working day within Golden Week.) Or perhaps as a result of the town mergers a few years back Oyama town hall has begun gradually shutting down. I don't know.
Other highlights: I past the cultural center, which outside had a statue of a boy in some sort of military uniform, and a girl naked. And I thought: "hey, that sums up culture right there."
Near the cultural center where several old style Japanese houses with straw roofs. There was a sign indicating this was some sort of historical museum, but the whole area looked closed up and run down.
The walk along the river led me all the way back to mizube no sato rest area, where I had started out the morning. I stopped shortly before I got all the way back to the rest area, and found a shady place under a tree to read my book by the river.
After having walked the lengthy of the Oyama town center there and back, I followed sum of the side streets up the mountain side for a little while to see if there was anything of interest there. I found a few good views and got a couple pictures.
I also came across a sign which read, "Stop Oyama Dam". One doesn't see a lot of protest signs in Japan, so this caught my attention. At the time I thought this referred to one of the dams I had seen earlier in the day, but I was shortly to discover it referred to a dam still under construction.
I got back in my car and headed up some of the same side streets.
I followed one road high into the mountains above some beautiful valleys. As always on these high mountain roads, one has to resist the temptation to spend too much time looking down in the valley whilst driving. But fortunately there was a scenic lookout parking area alongside the road I could stop at.
I parked the car and looked down at the valley.
The entire valley, and even the mountains surrounding it, all appeared to be part of one big construction project. Trucks were carrying off stones from the mountain, conveyor belts were taking rocks to concrete mixers, and workman were busy running this way and that. This, I deduced, must be the Oyama dam construction sight.
On my way back down the mountain, I passed a sign for "The Oyama Dam Information Center". I thought I would poke my head in there and see if I could find out what this Oyama dam was for, and why some people were opposed to it.
The sign above the center advertised it as "an independent political group" (again, assuming my Japanese is okay), so I wasn't even sure if they were pro-dam or anti-dam. Looking at the signs out front though it became clear this informational center was designed to promote the dam.
As I was looking at outside of the building, I could already hear the excited talking of the employees inside. They had probably seen me through the windows and were no doubt saying to each other something like, "Oh no, a foreigner. I don't speak English, do you speak English? How are we going to communicate with him?"
I was still checking out the outside of the building when one of them stepped out and waved me inside. There were two women running the center, and once they figured out I spoke a little Japanese, they tried to explain the dam to me using the simplest Japanese.
I've got to say I was completely won over by their kindness and simple small town friendliness. They not only explained all about the dam to me, but took an active interest in my life and asked me all sorts of questions about where I was from, what I did in Japan, and what my hometown was like.
In typically Japanese fashion, they also showered me with compliments. Isn't it great that you came here to Japan? Isn't it great that you can speak a bit of Japanese? Isn't it great that you're sight seeing here in Oyama? Isn't it great that you teach English, but that you also take an active interest in dam construction?
I only felt bad that my slow halting Japanese and my limited social skills did not always allow me to fully keep up my end of the conversation, but I enjoyed talking to them.
"The purpose of the dam is to create a reservoir of drinking water from the Akaishigawa river. Once the dam fills up with water, it will supply water all along this area and even to the people of Fukuoka prefecture."
"I was looking at that river earlier," I said. "It seems like a pretty small river to build a whole dam around."
"Yes, but once the dams in place, in two years the whole area will fill up to a huge lake."
"And how long has the dam been under construction?" I asked.
"You mean how long have they been planning the dam, or how long have they been building it?"
"Um, either I guess."
"Well, they first began talking about the Dam in Showa 54. What would that be in the Western Calender? Oh, we've got a chart right over here. Let's see, 1979. Now they didn't actually begin construction until just a couple years ago in 2007."
"I did see a sign on the drive over here which said, 'Stop Oyama Dam'. What is that about?"
"Oh, the sign doesn't actually mean to literally stop construction of the dam. It just means that some of the towns people want us to build the dam in an enviromentally friendly way. For example, once construction of the dam is done, they would like to see us put in a couple parks alongside it to help beautify the area."
After having read "Dogs and Demons" by Alexander Kerr (A), I've grown to treat any Japanese construction project with a lot of cynicism. But it must be admitted I don't know anything about this particular case. Drinking water is a necessity for everyone, and although one always hates to see a beautiful mountain valley destroyed, this may well be a necessary construction project. I don't know. So I'm just going to keep my mouth shut.
The women even invited me up to see the construction in action. I was given a hard hat, which they told me I had to wear, and then one of them led me up the hill, past the concrete mixers, to a look out where I could see the construction going on.
It occured to me that I seemed to be their only customer for that afternoon, so I asked her if they usually kept busy at the informational center.
"Very busy, yes," she answered. "Bus tours will often come by."
From where we were standing, the entire construction operation was pretty impressive to behold. Rocks were coming in on conveyer belts, getting mixed into cement, getting dumped into huge containers on pulleys which would then fly on ropes across the valley. Down below a team of men, who looked like ants, were hard at work placing the cement.
"This dam must employ a lot of people," I said.
"About 200," the woman answered.
"And all they all from Oyama?"
"No, they come from the construction company. They're from all over Japan, and they just travel from one job to another."
"How long is this dam going to take to build."
"It will be finished in another 2 years. And then it will take two more years for it to fill up with water from the river. Already you can see the valley has changed a lot. That whole road going through the mountains and all those bridges were built just for the construction of this dam. None of that used to be there before."
"What used to be here before then?"
"Well, there was an old countryside road going through the valley. You can see the remnants of it there. And there was a small group of houses right where the dam is being built now. Only about 10 houses."
"Just 10 houses?"
"Yes, well, this is the countryside. There aren't many people here."
In order to be polite, I tried to seem as interested in the dam as possible and asked as many questions as I could think of. When I ran out of questions we went back down to the dam informational center.
They woman gave me several more pamphlets, and suggested I should tell my students about the dam and show them the pamphlets as well. I agreed that I would do that, which I suppose wasn't completely honest of me. They also gave me a card with a picture of the dam on it. "This is very special," they said. "People can only get this card by coming here to the informational center."
"Ah, a collectors item. Okay, I'll be sure to take good care of this."
They encouraged me to come back, and bring my friends next time, and even gave me a phone number to call. "You should come back to see how the dam's progress keeps up," they said. I said I probably would stop by again, which probably also wasn't completely honest.
After this, I drove back through Oyama to "Konohanagarten" a restaurant/ food store.
There is a delicious organic buffet restaurant here, which I have eaten at in the past when I was staying in Hita. But it was a fancy place so it seemed a bit odd to eat there when I was all by myself.
I briefly considered getting a cup of coffee at the cafe, but their coffee set was priced at 1050 yen ($10). I've had a lot of overpriced coffee in my time, but $10 was pushing the limit.
So, I left my car in the Konohanagarten parking lot, while I walked up and down the road by the river.
Once 5 o'clock came around, I figured I had explored everything there was to explore in Oyama, and I called it a day.

Roumi (or roumia for feminine) is a Moroccan Arabic word used to denote foods, animals, clothing and other things which are non-traditional, imported or of Western or European influence. It is often used in contrast to, or to denote opposite meaning of, the word beldi, which means "traditional" or "indigenous."
Homemade Moroccan butter, for example, will be referred to as zebda beldia while imported European butter is called zebda roumia. Free range chickens are called djaj beldi while factory raised hens are called djaj roumi. Likewise, traditional Moroccan cookies will be labeled beldi to differentiate them from European roumi style cookies. Even a mongrel dog which has domestic breed characteristics might be referred to as roumi.

BCC stands for Blind Carbon Copy. BCC is used in sending emails. The main feature of BCC is that it sends Email to multiple recipients without disclosing the individual emails addresses. When a person sends same email to a number of recipients, then it is the usual practice of the customer to send it in To: field by using comma or semi colon. But when the email is sent in this way, each receiver is able to see the complete list of recipient email addresses to which the same message is being sent to. BCC option allows hiding recipients in email messages i.e. the receiver will not be able to see the list of recipient email addresses. Thus using BCC is a smart way to protect the privacy of the recipients.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

We Love
Everything is illuminated
Without Ilse Crawford, doyenne of British design, many of us would be literally in the dark when it comes to great lighting.
One of a number of great talents designing for Swedish lighting company Wästberg, we were happy to learn that during the London Design Festival two new models were launched to grow her existing collection for the brand into a veritable family of characters - meaning the award winning design now comes as a floor lamp, a wall lamp, a table version and a desk lamp.
And they're all illuminatingly lovely. In addition to Crawford Wästberg has also collaborated with up and coming Alvaro Catalan de Ocon, Foscarini and Tomas Alonso.

Bake SalesBake Sales are the only avenue through which a ministry can raise additional funds outside of their budget. To schedule a bake sale contact the church office at firstname.lastname@example.com or 618-277-4659.
All funds raised at the bake sales will be placed into a designated account for that ministry. Donations made to a ministry outside of the Bake Sales will not be accepted as a designated gift. When such instances occur, the Financial Administrator will contact the donor either by phone or mail and explain how they can best support the ministries of Christ Church.
Cash ProceduresIn order to assure that each ministry is correctly credited for the funds received from bake sales, a procedure has been established for handling the money. Following a bake sale, the hosting ministry will designate at least two members of the team to take the money to the safe. All money should be placed in a bag (either a canvas money bag or a Ziploc bag) along with a note indicating the name of the ministry and date of the bake sale. After the bag is securely sealed or zipped it can be dropped in the safe. At no time should funds be taken to an individual's house. All funds must be placed in the church safe immediately following the bake sale. Following these procedures will insure that your ministry will be properly credited for those funds. Non-Profit organizations (501C3s, Feed My Sheep, Christ Philippines Mission etc…) will collect their money and give it to their designated representative.
ResponsibilitiesEach ministry is responsible for setting up their baked goods on the respective Sunday. It is expected that any church equipment or utensils will be used with care, cleaned and returned to their proper place following the bake sale. Failure to do so will jeopardize your ministry's privilege to host another bake sale. Following each bake sale it is important that each ministry clean up the tables and either take home or distribute any un-purchased goods. If you would like to leave the remaining baked goods for Sunday night fellowship and worship, please make sure that you contact someone in charge of the Café on Sunday evening to see if they will be able to use the remaining goods. If they cannot use them, it will be up to the ministry hosting the bake sale to distribute or take home the surplus of goods. If, for any reason, a ministry needs to cancel, it must give the office two weeks notice.

Financial Processes
Christ Church Charge Accounts
Commerce Business Cards
Who is eligible to receive a Christ Church Business Card?
Only staff members are issued a church credit card to assist in making purchases for their ministry or team. This credit card is issued under the staff person's name and he/she is responsible for retaining all receipts for charges against the card.
How should charges on the Church Business Card Be Substantiated?
It is the responsibility of each staff member to look over their statement and enclose all receipts with a completed Church Charge Account Form attached. The bill and all completed paperwork and receipts should be turned into the Accounts Payable Clerk for payment by the due date indicated on the front of the statement envelope.
Any discrepancies should be addressed by the cardholder and the Accounts Payable Clerk should be made aware of any changes. Late charges, finance charges, or fraudulent charges on the credit card statements should be reported to the Accounts Payable Clerk as soon as possible.
Sam's Club Account
Who can use the Sam's Club Account?
Ministry Team Leaders and staff members are given the option to be included on the charge account at Sam's Club. In order to make purchases against the account at Sam's Club a person must have their name added to the account which requires a letter from the Executive Director.
What do I do after I purchase something on the Sam's Club Charge Account?
When a purchase is made, a Church Charge Account Form must be completed. The receipt must be attached to the form and turned into the Accounts Payable Clerk within five days of making the purchase.
Lowes/Home Depot
Who can make purchases on the Lowes and Home Depot Charge Accounts?
These are restricted accounts and are made available to church custodians and select members of the Trustees.
What do I do after I purchase something on the Lowes and Home Depot Charge Accounts?
Those authorized to use the church's Lowes and Home Depot accounts should obtain a receipt, attach it to a completed Church Charge Account Form and return it to the Accounts Payable Clerk within five business days of the purchase.
Office Depot/Office Max
How do I make purchases on the Office Depot and Office Max Charge Accounts?
These accounts are accessed through the use of store credit cards. These cards are limited in number and are held by the church office. If a staff member or ministry leader needs to purchase office supplies a card may be checked out from the Office Manager. Because there are only a limited number of cards, it is imperative that the cards are returned to the Office Manager the same day that the purchase is made.
What do I do after I purchase something on the Office Depot or Office Max Charge Accounts?
A Church Charge Account Form must be completed and the receipt must be attached. The completed form should be submitted to the Accounts Payable Clerk within five business days of making the purchase.
How do I use the LifeWay Charge Account
In order to make purchases on the church's LifeWay account your name must be included in a list of people authorized to use the LifeWay account. This list is provided to LifeWay by the church. Please contact the Financial Administrator if you aren't sure whether your name is already on the LifeWay account or if your name needs to be added to the list.
What do I do after I charge something to the LifeWay Charge Account?
Purchases made on the LifeWay Charge Account need to be brought to the attention of the Accounts Payable Clerk. When a purchase is made on the charge account, a Church Charge Account Form should be completed and the receipt attached to the form. The form and receipts should be turned into the Accounts Payable Clerk within five business days of making a purchase.
On-Line Purchases/Phone OrdersWhen making on-line purchases or ordering over the phone it is preferable to charge purchases to a pre-existing church account. If the church doesn't already have an account and the vendor will be used on a regular basis, please see the Financial Administrator for help setting up a new tax exempt account.
If you are making a one-time purchase from a company on-line or over the phone explain that the purchase is for Christ Church and ask about submitting a tax exempt letter. If you choose to make a purchase without using the tax exempt letter and wish to be reimbursed, be aware that the church will reimburse for purchases made for the church, but will not reimburse for sales tax.
Receipts are necessary for on-line and phone orders. When ordering on-line print out the order confirmation page before logging off and use it as your receipt. Over the phone orders will require those placing the order to fill out a check request form and should include a description of purchase, amount of purchase, an order # or confirmation # and signature of the ministry or team leader in charge of the budget to be charged.
Check Requests and Requests for ReimbursementIt is not uncommon for Ministry Leaders and authorized ministry members to purchase supplies for their ministries outside of the church charge accounts listed above. These purchases are made by requesting a check from the church for the cost of the supplies or by making the purchases out-of-pocket.
How do I purchase supplies for the Church without being charged sales tax?
Christ United Methodist Church is a non-profit organization and is tax exempt. For this reason, the church does not reimburse for sales tax. In order to make a tax exempt purchase on behalf of the church at stores that do not carry a Christ Church charge account, businesses require that a buyer present a Commerce Business Card (issued to staff only) and tax exempt letter OR a check from the church and a tax exempt letter.
Check Requests
To obtain a check from the church prior to making purchases, buyers will need to submit a Check Request Form with the exact amount of the purchase prior to making the purchase. A check will be cut within a week of submitting the check request and the buyer will be notified of when the check can be picked up. It is best to ask that tax exempt letters be faxed directly to the necessary businesses prior to the purchase. To have a tax exempt letter faxed to a business, please contact the Church Administrative Assistant or Financial Administrator.
Request for Reimbursement
How do I request reimbursement for purchases I made out-of-pocket for church ministries?
Individuals making purchases out-of-pocket on behalf of the church are entitled to be reimbursed for the cost of supplies by the ministry involved (sales tax will not be reimbursed). To be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses, a Check Request Form should be completed and returned to the Accounts Payable Clerk along with the original receipt. All such requests should be submitted within five business days of making the purchase.
A copy of the receipt marked "paid" will be provided to the Team Leader when the reimbursement has been processed.
Check Request FormThe check request form is used to request checks needed to purchase supplies for ministries and to request reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by ministry leaders and members when purchasing materials for their ministry.
Where do I find a check request form?
There are two ways to obtain a check request form:
1. Hard copies of the check request form are always available in the church office complex.
2. If you prefer to fill out your check request form electronically you can access the check request form by clicking here.
What do I do once the check request form is completed?
The Check Request Forms and applicable receipts should be submitted to the Accounts Payable Clerk within five business days of making a purchase. The forms can be placed in the mailbox marked Accounts Payable in the office complex. Check requests are usually processed within one week of being received. There is a place on the check request to note whether the check should be mailed or if someone will pick the check up. Checks will be disbursed according to these specifications.
If I buy anything for the church do I have to fill out one of the check request forms?
If you would like to be reimbursed for the cost of supplies you purchased for Christ Church ministries you must submit a completed check request form and receipts.
If you are making a donation and would like an acknowledgement for tax purposes you do not need to fill out a check request from but you should see the Financial Administrator for the appropriate paperwork.
If I go to a store and buy items for three different ministries what do I do?
Fill out one check request form and indicate which expenses should be charged to each ministry.
What happens if I lose my receipt?
All check request forms require proof of purchase. Reimbursements will not be made without proof of purchase.
*For further clarification or additional questions, please contact the Financial Administrator at firstname.lastname@example.com or the Accounts Payable Clerk at firstname.lastname@example.com
Church Charge Account FormThe church charge account form is used to substantiate purchases made to any of the church charge accounts. The church has charge accounts with the following businesses:
Where do I find a Church Charge Account form?
There are two ways to obtain a church charge account form:
1. Hard copies of the church charge account form are always available in the church office complex.
2. If you prefer to fill out your form electronically you can access the church charge account form by clicking here.
If I make purchases on two different charge accounts (i.e. – Sam's Club and Office Depot) do I need to use two different forms?
Purchases made to two different charge accounts need to be recorded on two separate charge account forms. Example: Sue purchased supplies for the nursery from Sam's Club and Office Depot. Sue would complete two church charge account forms; one for Sam's Club and one for Office Depot.
If I make purchases on one charge account (i.e. – Lowes) but I am buying supplies for more than one ministry do I need to fill out more than one form?
As long as your purchases are made at the same store you only need to fill out one church charge account form. On the form there are fields for you to indicate how to allocate the expenses between the different ministries. Example: Bob purchased materials at Lowe's for Student Ministries and cleaning supplies for the church. Bob would complete one church charge account form and indicate which expenses should be charged to Student Ministries and which expenses should be charged to the Trustees budget for cleaning supplies.
How soon do I need to turn in receipts and church charge account forms after making a purchase?
All church charge account forms and receipts should be turned into the Accounts Payable Clerk within five business days of making a purchase. Completed forms and receipts can be placed in the Accounts Payable mailbox located in the office complex.
*For further clarification or additional questions, please contact the Financial Administrator at email@example.com or the Accounts Payable Clerk at firstname.lastname@example.com

---- — SALEM — Some guests at the Salem Waterfront Hotel got an unwelcome wake-up call yesterday after three men entered the lobby and started begging, loudly, for money, police said.
And one of them is no stranger to the concept of disturbing others: John Reddy, 35, of 24 Arthur St., Beverly, has already been convicted of disorderly conduct eight times, according to his record.
He and his two companions are now facing charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace.
Police went to the Pickering Wharf hotel shortly after 7 a.m., called there about the men, who were yelling and using profanity as they demanded money from guests and others passing through the lobby, Salem police Lt. Conrad Prosniewski told a judge.
One of the men, later identified as Shaun Quilty, 24, of Hingham, yelled, "Does anybody know where I can get money to get out of this corrupt state?"
During his court appearance, Quilty tried to shoulder the blame for the incident, telling Judge Michael Lauranzano, "I'm the one who was raising my voice. John was trying to calm me down."
Lauranzano suggested that Reddy's attorney, William O'Hare, has his contact information and could call him as a witness for the defense later on.
O'Hare said Reddy, whom he was appointed to represent yesterday, "is a very loud, animated guy with a lot of opinions" and had been out drinking all night.
When he's sober, O'Hare said, Reddy works as a telemarketer and debt collector and recently started a job with DirecTV, the satellite dish company.
O'Hare suggested that the judge "give him a pass" on his latest case.
"I decline to give him a pass," Lauranzano announced, setting Reddy's bail at $100.
A third man, Matthew Reddy, 32, of Georgetown, was also charged, but the police prosecutor offered to dismiss the charges if he completes eight hours of community service, which he agreed to perform.
John Reddy and Quilty, who was released on personal recognizance but who was believed to be wanted by Quincy District Court, are due back in court July 24.
The three men had come to the attention of police earlier that morning, when an employee at Dunkin' Donuts at 31 Bridge St. reported that they had been "hanging around the front of the store" and became upset when she asked them to leave.
Police found them on Bridge Street and advised the men not to return to the store; less than a half hour later, officers were called to Waterfront Hotel.

Join us at Bloody Elbow tonight at Midnight ET/9 p.m. PT for discussion of the eleventh episode of The Ultimate Fighter Brazil. The show will be aired on Globo in Brazil, and UFC.com everywhere else (some countries are blacked out, but the United States and Canada are good to go).
Last week's episode had the first featherweight semi-final featuring Godofredo de Oliveira and Rodrigo Damm, or at least it was supposed to. Damm damaged his kidneys while cutting weight and was forced out of the competition, so it was Pepey vs. Marcos Vinicius instead. A great grappling match was won by Pepey in the second round via armbar.
This week's episode will feature the coaches challenge, a visit by UFC welterweight Demian Maia, and the first middleweight semifinal bout between Sergio "Seginho" Moraes vs. Daniel Sarafian.
Tune in tonight and let everyone know what you think.

Facebook has changed the way we look at friendship today, but there are a few things that can damage your relationship as well.
Don't Drag Out Your Friend's Past Mistakes
No one likes to be reminded of the times they: had too much to drink, fell for the guy who did them wrong, or dated a girl who treated them badly. Do your friend a favor and refrain from posting embarrassing photos or continually bringing up past events your pal would rather forget.
Don't Steal Friends
Just because Facebook suggests that you become friends with someone doesn't mean your real-life pal will appreciate it. If a suggestion shows up on your Facebook page, decide if you really have something in common with this person. Some friendships develop over time, and if your friend took years to get to know someone and you pop that person in your Facebook friend list, your pal may think you're just out to get connections.
Don't Air Dirty Laundry
Keep your arguments off Facebook. It's rude, and with the various settings on the site you may be airing it for anyone (not just those in your friend list) to see. Besides that, no one wants to see you and a pal duke it out with nasty words.
Respect Your Friend's Privacy Wishes
Some friends love posting pictures on Facebook, while others would rather not be tagged anywhere on the site. Whatever your friend's preference, respect his wishes. Don't post pictures without approval and don't tag your friend on notes if he has asked you not to.
Don't Let Facebook Be Your Only Form of Communication
Some friends get so used to communicating on Facebook that they no longer bother to call or email. Not everyone uses Facebook as their primary means to keep in touch with people, so don't expect your friends to view your wall every day. If you have something you want your pal to know about, get in touch with him.

Commissioners voted unanimously to accept the Texas Community Development Block Grant. It will help needed and urgent repair of the Burk water system. That money comes from the Texas Department of Agriculture, and will be put to good use. "Burkburnett was awarded the Community Development Block Grant in the amount of $275,000," said Burkburnett Assistant City Manager Michael Whaley. "That will enable us to increase some undersized water mains and increase the fire protection within the community."The City of Burkburnett will pay $27,500 for administrative costs to go along with that grant.

This story is dedicated to A., any kind of pain has nothing to do with my great travel companion or the country itself!
The trip in one word:
"The main intention around this trip is to visit the Bulgarian black sea coast, something new to me, a new departure airport to count on the map and all together with perfect nice local company after several invitations!".
Zdraveĭte skŭpi chitateli,
hello, dear readers,
it´s "Midsommar" time also in Germany, but I don´t find the way to Scandinavia this year, down the south for Bulgaria it is, just two weeks after the last adventure:
France Lille Hop! Airlinair Regional (by FLIEGER67 Oct 9 2013 in Trip Reports)
That´s the routemap so far and believe it or not,
also around this trip it´s necessary to show another one later on:
Many thanx to this great tool:
There is some work done with the previous departure airports. All the flights to reach these 200 places are now included:
Departure airports auf einer größeren Karte anzeigen
Well, if you like to feel the pain, come on and stay with me!.
Sunday, 23.06.2013
Service VIM 774 operated by Air VIA - Bulgarian Airways
Scheduled: 06.25 // 09.55
Well, it seems I should request for a renaming here. What about "Master of the short nights"?.
An lazy early afternoon departure is booked and confirmed.
TUIFly does the job and sells chartered flights by the leisure company TUI beside the own services as flight only.
The fare is 125.00 Euro´s.
Leaving FRA at 2.05 pm and arriving BOJ at 5.40 pm, my travel companions schedule is also fixed like this.
I was talking about chartered flights, isn´t it?.
Not that long prior to the trip there is a nice, irony, you know the way, message in the box!.
The new departure time is 06.25 am, take it or leave it.
Should I really go to sleep this night?.
I should, just for a couple of minutes, 0.30 am is set on the cell phone and it does the job again.
The motorway is calm as it should be during this time of the night and Tourcare sees me at 04.00 am. Wished the car a good further night and hoping on the shuttle for terminal 2.
Seat selection in advance is possible, but declined due to the extra costs. OLCI is not possible, ok nothing else expected.
The A320 is on schedule and so it looks like here.
Inbound from Varna, the same short night like me
and outbound without further notice
A long, a really long, a terrible long queue, where is the end?. Around the corner from the two open counters.
Families with small kids, retirees and groups of "End of school parties" around. Is it really possible to fit in all these people in an A320?.
Do you feel the pain?.
Well, lucky me, while walking the queue I see an elder male agent, what looks like preparing another counter and soon thereafter a couple of other pax and me build a new line, an even shorter new line this time.
He speaks better english than german, sure ok with me, but we are in Germany right?.
No flight voucher, sure?. No flight voucher, this isn´t a package tour.
No baggage, sure?. No baggage, yes, I´am sure!.
Anyway, nice talking produced 03F, ok so far.
Good to see only a couple of people at passport check and further on also at security.
For an apron view in the early morning light
No lounge available here this early morning time.
Pretty fast, not that long after my arrival at the gate D02, boarding started for the apron bus tour
I´am on the last bus, do you expect late or lost pax on a service like this?.
20 minutes, boarding time is long gone, till all the sheep found the way!.
Well, this is one more example of the no-name-planes fleet, LZ-MDB is the scheduled A320.
New to the log, leg. no 101 on type
Under the wing, you know!
This one is in service since 16.05.2007 with Air Via and NAS Air from Saudi Arabia, three planes on type are in the fleet and there are no incidents to report
06.55 am, 30 minutes late in the end, "Air Via" leaving the "Flughafen Frankfurt am Main", 2.10 hours from the 4000 meters runway "One-Eight". The sky is mostly cloudy and the temperature is 18 degrees.
Cockpit crew is from Bulgaria according to the names, not a single word from upfront, no infos at all. "Kapitan", do you have a voice?.
Beijing on this plane?. Well, do you feel the pain?
There is a safety card here and also something what is on some other airlines called as legroom!
Cabin crew is one male FA, young, ok
and three women, one middle aged, ponytail, black hair, all announcements in german, nice.
One elder, biz friendly and one young,
cute, large black hair, could be really nice but somewhat cold in the end.
English ok and an interior view with the
heavily used fabric seats
The load is 100%, no open seat to spot.
The frequent once a year travellers on the way.
Weird t-shirts and sports shorts this early time in the morning.
The cabin ceiling and the engine on the way
Service is arrived
A view till the horizon, that´s what I like
Finals for BOJ, I´am really looking forward to my stay in Bulgaria
Close to touchdown at the 3200 meters runway "Two-Two".
10.30 am and this is now 35 minutes late, 25 degrees, not a single cloud to spot
And welcome to the "Letishte Burgas"
Target achieved!
The plane looks like much nicer in the bright sun.
What about the pain?. No more, at least not more today, but believe me, the pain is still around the corner, ready to beat back!
Immigration takes a couple of minutes, finally stamped, no baggage to catch what gives me the chance to take over all the crowd.
And out in the public. No, I don´t need a taxi.
No, I don´t need a taxi. Should I better write a sign this way?. Like the people waiting with signs for Mr. X or company Y?.
There is a bus service for the city, leaving from the intersection down at the main road.
Good to see a bus approaching, but the driver doesn´t open the door, only pax to disembark.
There is a nice middle aged woman also waiting, airport staff so it seems. The bus runs on a circle through the town closeby, Sarafovo and will come back later for the drive to the city. Ah, good to know and there is also a conductor on the bus to sell the tickets, more good to know. Local advice, you know!.
A real pleasure, isn´t it, when you observe it later
that the bus route runs along the hotel and you walk all the way back from the main train station!.
Well, finally arrived, just a little bit tired, at the Gran Via Hotel with a nice welcome from the young woman at the desk.
My mail request for the top floor produced a large appartment on these aforementioned level.
And you know that there are private owners beside you when you see lot´s of shoes and other stuff close to the two other doors!
Fresh designed
Let´s go for a view around
The beach
For the city center with some of these really oldfashioned entrances
This is the Soviet Union, this is it, definitely!
The EZY-Shuttle ready to go. Don´t know that they serve Bulgaria!
The multi functional top notch board at the main train station!
Perfectly up to date, isn´t it?
Something to eat?.
Yes, this is the bakery around the corner
And it tastes really good
This way for the beach
Neptun sounds somewhat fishy!
So oldfashioned on the way back to the hotel, for a short break till my companion calls
A warm welcome to A., just arrived by Bulgaria Air from Sofia, good to see you here and spend the time together.
For more views around the city
And the churches
And I´am sure, this is not the European Union, this is the Soviet Union!
Isn´t it?
A real good Bulgarian dinner at Pizza Palace follows.
Next time on my expense.
Bulgarian food is definitely something for me this way
Till one more of this short nights and a meet up again the next morning.
Please check your spelling (press "Check Spelling" above)

Mark Lanegan, Has God Seen My Shadow? An Anthology 1989–2011 (out now, A Light in the Attic, lightintheattic.net)
Mark Lanegan sounds like Seattle—perhaps never more than in this anthology, which adds a dozen unreleased tracks to material from the former Screaming Trees singer's first six solo records. The tempos are slow, the moods gloomy, and his voice a road-hardened rasp. These are not songs for sunny Seattle summers, but rather the long winter nights or even the early mornings that follow—like the one depicted on the cover of his 1994 album Whiskey for the Holy Ghost, with a half-drunk bottle of booze on the table alongside the Holy Bible and a burning cigarette, each bristling at the golden rays of dawn. Though the collection includes appearances by PJ Harvey, Josh Homme, and J Mascis, it does not feature any of his collaborations with Isobel Campbell or Duke Garwood. Lanegan lovers likely have most of the first disc in their collection, but for the curious looking to dive into his catalog but unsure where to start, Shadow is that place. DAVE LAKE

The vegetables can marinate for a couple of hours, so all you'll have to do at party time is arrange them on a platter and top with olives and cheese. Immediately place the prepared vegetables in the marinade so they won't discolor. Be sure to use fresh mozzarella, which comes packed in water and is usually found with the specialty cheeses. Coarsely chop leftovers and toss with pasta for a cold salad.
