Commercial from Scotland addressing the issue of victim blaming myths.
The purpose of the know violence committee is to provide proactive educational services to students, faculty and staff about the issues of sexual and relationship violence and to provide access to quality services for women and men who are affected by violence.
know violence aims to provide quality services to women and men who are affected by violence.
know violence defines rape as the absence of a "SOBER YES." This means that for consensual sex to occur both partners should be sober and communicating about their actions.
Through programming and other educational services to both men and women, know violence aims to positively change the environment at SUNY Oneonta to create a community where violence in any form is not only unacceptable but non-existent.
know violence works closely with Oneonta's Violence Intervention Program which provides survivors of rape, sexual assault and violence with a 24-hour hotline and advocacy services.
The committee consists of faculty, staff and students and always welcomes new members. Students interested in volunteering on the know violence committee should contact the Health Educator
A common myth in our society is that men cannot be the victims of sexual assault or relationship violence. This is not true, men are victims too. All of the services on and off campus are available to men too.
The know violence committee provides programming and education to the campus community regarding the issues of sexual assault and relationship violence. The Committee is made up of faculty, staff and students and meets once a month.
If you are interested in joining the know violence committee please contact Rebecca Harrington. Email, call (432-3540) or stop by room 110 in the CHW Center.

News: Miley Cyrus Squeezes Out Juicy Pregnancy Reports
Monday, Sep 30, 2013 5:15PM
Pop singer Miley Cyrus is letting the world know whether twerking on Juicy J has possibly lead to her preparing to welcome in a baby with the Three 6 Mafia rapper.
Cyrus put an immediate stop to the rumors by killing the gossip on Twitter.
"waking up to the news that I'm now pregnant with @therealjuicyj baby," she tweeted September 30.
"Me: "did you know I'm pregnant with @therealjuicyj baby this morning" @CheyneThomas : "what are you gonna name it?" Me: "Juicy J Jr DUH"" (Miley Cyrus' Twitter)
The gossip turned widespread late Sunday night and well into the early start of the work week.
Miley Cyrus may no longer be engaged, but is she with child? The Internet has been buzzing that the "Wrecking Ball" singer has a bun in the oven following a so-called report that during the BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta over the weekend, she and Juicy J announced they were expecting a baby together. According to the site Cream Bmp Daily, the rapper allegedly told the crowd that Cyrus has "been doing a lot more than twerking," after which Liam Hemsworth's former fiancée supposedly yelled to the laughing crowd, 'No, I'm really pregnant." Of course, seeing how the outlet calls itself a "satire" site, it shouldn't come as a complete shock to learn that there really wasn't any big announcement made. (E! Online)
An alleged inside source has also confirmed Miley never carried Juicy's baby.
Sure enough, Cyrus herself playfully addressed the speculation by tweeting on Monday, "Waking up to the news that I'm now pregnant with @therealjuicyj baby." Her mom, Tish, also couldn't help but be amused, writing, "hahahahaha YEP! read that last night!! This is my favorite one yet!" And not surprising, a source tells E! News that while "funny," the rumor is false. (E! Online)
A lot of the anxiety reportedly stemmed from comments Juicy made during the BET Hip Hop Awards taping this past weekend.
Miley Cyrus reportedly took the stage at the BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta on Sept. 29 and made a shocking announcement -- that she's expecting a baby with rapper Juicy J! Her announcement shocked the award show audience -- what do YOU think? Juicy J is featured on Miley and Mike WiLL Made It's new track, '23,' but the pair have been hanging out a lot. "I assure you she's been doing a lot more than twerking," Juicy J, 38, reportedly said on the awards show stage, according to CreamBMP.com. The site reported that Miley, 20, then blurted out that she's pregnant! (Hollywood Life)

It had been awhile since I'd uttered the words, "Best. Date. Ever." and I certainly wasn't expecting to during my trip to BlogHer in San Diego while surrounded by beavers and limited weiners. I can also honestly say I'd never experienced a perfect date before. You know, the kind you often see in the movies with surprises galore, where everything just works out, leaves you grinning from ear to ear and breathless by the time the night is through?
Well I finally had that perfect date during BlogHer 2011.
Only it wasn't with a man, it was with a woman. And it wasn't so much a date as an adventure that proved why two beavers (or more) are better than one.
We all know how catty women can be when grouped together, especially for long periods of time, so when I was approached by multiple single moms to share a room at the Marriott for four days during BlogHer I was apprehensive. First of all, I don't normally get along well with women in real life. It's rare that I find any that don't annoy the shit out of me or that I don't want to shank within five minutes of meeting them. Second, my original plan was to room alone because I knew from last year how much I appreciated the moments I had to myself, especially the moments when I had to poop, but when my financial situation took a turn for the worst I had to reevaluate. I knew canceling my trip to San Diego wasn't an option because of my contract with Match.com to host The Kiss Our Sass Party, so I decided to room with three other single moms to save myself cash.
Call me crazy because two of them were complete strangers and the third I only knew well over the internet, but I took a chance cramming myself into a room with them and am so glad I did because those three vaginas completed me in a way no man ever has. Each of them taught me something about myself. Each of them inspired me in a completely different way. Each of them now owns a piece of my heart.
I love you, @DontSpkWhinese @_katarena_ and @singlemama_cc. Truly. Madly. SugarMotherfuckingCookiely.
You all know about The Kiss Our Sass Party, but I haven't had a chance to recap what happened afterwards. Anyone who has ever attended BlogHer will tell you it is insanely chaotic. No matter how regimented you plan to be, it never works out. I had an itinerary a mile long that I carried around with me and never even glanced at. I missed events that I RSVPed to and looked forward to. I didn't get to meet all of the bloggers I planned to. That's just how it goes when you're on planet BlogHer. You wing it, or get drunk tryin'!
Truth: You could not wing it and follow your itinerary, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have half as much fun as I did. Trust me. Wing that ish.
I opened my eyes the morning after The Kiss Our Sass Party, held my throbbing head, looked around my hotel room and saw this:
I won't disclose if one of those bras is mine.
I then threw on some clothes and dragged my ass to the conference because there were sessions I just HAD to go to. Next year I'll be more worried about making the breakfast than the actual sessions because I missed out on some serious bacon the morning of Day One.
Yes, I'm still bitter about that.
I spent the entire day at the conference like a good girl and then went back to my hotel room to shower (FINALLY. I forgot how hard it can be to share a bathroom with three other women) and get ready for the Swag Nation Party. My roommate Leila also had a ticket so we decided to head over together.
Our "date" started when I emerged from the bathroom and she declared I looked like "A BeetleJuice Cupcake." At the time I half wanted to kick her in the lady balls, but looking at the side by side now I can see she's totally right.
The only difference is if you say my name three times, I'll come visit you and ask for an alcoholic beverage.
The Swag Nation Party was nothing special. Actually if I'm being honest it was totally lame. When Leila and I got there we got the LAST TWO drink tickets which means the next bitches that walked in had to pay for their booze. And the whole scene was just weird. It was way too branded and not enough fun. You even had to pay attention all day and do a scavenger hunt in order to solve a puzzle to get their swag bag, which only contained a t-shirt and a 2-pack of cake balls. Leila and I were lucky enough that one of the Swag Nation dudes took a liking to our vaginas and gave us the answer to the puzzle so we could taste his balls.
Basically we drank our beer, licked some balls and left.
Next up was dinner at Rockin' Baja where we got a kickass seat on the patio to do some people watching. Really I should say people watched us as we sat lovingly side by side, seductively sharing a free Pina Colada that our waitress gave us because she fucked up someone's order.
I'm sorry, that's not seductive enough for you?
We also shared nachos, which were THE most amazing nachos ever by the way, while playing a game of "I would/wouldn't do him" as people walked by.
Then Leila LET ME pick an entree for us to share. After running down the menu I decided on the "Dirty Tacos" not because they sounded that great but because the name completed the hilariousness of what was already transpiring: That we'd inadvertently been thrust into the perfect lesbians night out.
And when those dirty dirty tacos came, Leila fed them to me…
I'll never look at a taco the same way again.
It was the best dinner date I'd had in a long time. I'm not even sure how we ate because we were so busy laughing.
After we were done causing erections along 5th Avenue, we headed over to Stiletto Media's Kick Off Your Heels Party.
One word: AMAZING
This was one of my favorite events at BlogHer that didn't involve getting shitfaced and dancing. Migdalia knows how to throw a party! It had all of the things women love: makeup, fancy cocktails, delicious food, a beautiful outdoor venue with a fireplace, and MASSAGES!
As soon as Leila and I arrived, we ran over to the open photobooth to take ridonkulous pictures.
Then we enjoyed our delicious pink stilletinis by the fire. Romance at it's finest, people. Had she been a dude I'm positive we would've been making out.
What happened next only solidified the hilarity of how magical our date truly was when fireworks started going off as we sat next to each other on our love seat by the fire.
I know God was snorting over that one.
After the fireworks we had massages side by side. Yes, I'm totally serious. Unfortunately I was in too much awe to ask someone to take a picture of that for us.
Next up: Sparklecorn. Where Leila and I drank a fuckton of booze and humped a whole lotta cardboard cutouts to forget that we might be lesbians.
Despite all of the drinks, and how stiff Darth Vader was, I still managed to get her to come back to my hotel room with me.
In all seriousness, that night at BlogHer made me realize I don't have to wait around for a man to go on the perfect date. I can plan one anytime I want with my fellow beavers.
Saturday night was equally fun as my three roommates and I partied our last night together away at Aiming Low and CheeseburgHer.
Yes, that's Charlie from HowToBeADad.com. Yes that's the fabulous Sugar Jones, who WILL cut a bitch. Yes those are the infamous #SugarMotherfuckingCookies. Yes, duck lips are the new drunk Mely.
And yes bitches, two beavers (or more) are better than one.
So go get some!

Day v. Day Download as PDF Back to Opinions page MAINE SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT Decision: 1998 ME 194 Docket: Ken-98-6 Submitted on Briefs: June 22, 1998 Decided: July 31, 1998 Panel: WATHEN, C.J., and ROBERTS, CLIFFORD, RUDMAN, DANA, and SAUFLEY, JJ.
RACHAEL E. DAY v. WALTER S. DAY
RUDMAN, J. [¶1] Walter Sanderson Day ("Mr. Day") appeals from the judgment entered in the Superior Court (Kennebec County, Crowley, J.) in favor of Rachael E. Day ("Ms. Day") on her former husband's post-judgment motion to reduce his alimony obligation. Mr. Day argues that the court erred by refusing to modify his alimony obligation in light of a substantial change in Ms. Day's financial circumstances. In her cross-appeal Ms. Day contends that the court erred by denying her request for reimbursement of her attorney fees and costs. We disagree with both Mr. and Ms. Day and affirm the judgment. [¶2] The parties in this case were divorced on March 30, 1989. The divorce judgment entered by the court (Kennebec County, Lipez, J.) adopted and incorporated by reference an agreement reached privately by the parties.{1} The agreement divided the parties' marital property and required Mr. Day to pay Ms. Day $160,000 in cash "in order to effect an equitable division of property between the two parties." The agreement requires Mr. Day to pay Ms. Day alimony for a fixed 10-year period: "$2,500 per month, first such payment to be made on March 1, 1989, and the final such payment to be made on March 1, 1999." The alimony provision further provided:
Except for said termination, the obligation of Husband to pay alimony to Wife is fixed and final and is not subject to increase, decrease, or any other modification of any other kind for any reason, including the changed financial circumstances of either party. (emphasis added).
[¶3] At the time of the divorce, Mr. Day owned and operated a travel business and earned approximately $112,000 per year; Ms. Day worked part-time earning less than $10,000 per year. In January, 1997, Ms. Day won the Tri-State lottery. Pursuant to a prior agreement she gave a portion of the jackpot to a friend and thus will receive $4 million over twenty years. Ms. Day, now 59 years old, no longer works, owns her own home, and has a net worth of approximately $2.3 million. Mr. Day is now 64 years old and continues to own and operate his travel business. His annual income is estimated at $125,000 and his net worth is approximately $1.56 million. [¶4] Mr. Day's motion to amend the divorce decree was denied (Kennebec County, Crowley, J.) after a hearing, and this appeal ensued.
[¶5] Mr. Day argues that, regardless of the existence of an unambiguous anti-modification provision in the separation agreement incorporated into the divorce decree, Ms. Day's lottery income constitutes an extraordinary change in circumstances that compels a reduction in his alimony obligation. Absent a violation of some positive rule of law, we will overturn the trial court's decision of whether to modify spousal support only if it results in a plain and unmistakable injustice, "so apparent that it is instantly visible without argument." Smith v. Smith, 419 A.2d 1035, 1038 (Me. 1980). In general, the divorce court may modify an award of alimony upon the showing of a substantial change in either the payor or payee spouse's financial condition. See Haag v. Haag, 609 A.2d 1164, 1165 (Me. 1992). [¶6] Although parties to a divorce may fashion a private settlement agreement addressing property division and spousal support, and the divorce court may incorporate this agreement into the divorce decree, only an incorporated agreement's provision not to increase alimony will survive despite subsequent events. See Hale v. Hale, 604 A.2d 38, 41 (Me. 1992) In all other circumstances, the divorce court is empowered to "alter or amend a decree for spousal support or specific sum when it appears that justice requires it." 19-A M.R.S.A. § 951(4) (1998). Because the divorce decree reflects the court's consideration of all of the relevant statutory factors, see 19-A M.R.S.A. § 951 (1998), once a separation agreement is incorporated into the divorce decree, it is the intent of the divorce court, rather than that of the parties, that is determinative of the parties' obligations, see Wardwell v. Wardwell, 458 A.2d 750, 752 (Me. 1983). Due regard, however, is given to the parties' intent to insulate a spousal support award from future economic uncertainty when such intent is reflected by an anti-modification provision incorporated into the divorce decree. In the absence of an incorporated anti-modification provision, a payor spouse seeking to reduce a spousal support obligation would bear the burden of establishing a substantial change in the payor spouse's ability to pay or a substantial change in the payee spouse's need for support. See Haag, 609 A.2d at 1165. When the divorce decree incorporates the parties' agreement that there be no modification of the award of alimony, however, a payor spouse seeking to reduce his or her obligation must justify the modification on the basis of changed circumstances beyond a mere showing that there has been a substantial change in the parties' respective economic circumstance. See Hale, 604 A.2d at 41 ("an anti-modification provision should be considered by the divorce court as an extraordinary circumstance, imposing a greater evidentiary burden on the payor spouse who seeks to modify a decree than would be encountered where no such agreement exists"). [¶7] We assume that the existence of an incorporated anti- modification provision is one of the many factors a divorce court considers when it determines an appropriate level of spousal support. The level of spousal support awarded to a payee spouse in a divorce decree with an incorporated anti-modification provision reflects the court's recognition of value in the certainty associated with a fixed support award. More simply stated, a divorce decree with an incorporated anti-modification provision anticipates that the financial circumstances of either of the parties may change substantially. [¶8] In reviewing Mr. Day's motion to amend, the divorce court was not compelled by any equitable considerations to upset the balance that had been struck at the time of the original decree. See, e.g., Knox v. Remick, 358 N.E.2d 432, 435-36 (Mass. 1976) (modification to spousal support award justified when spouse became public charge subsequent to the execution and incorporation of the separation agreement). Because all that Mr. Day offered the court to justify a reduction in his spousal support obligation was evidence of a substantial change in Ms. Day's financial circumstances, the divorce court did not exceed the bounds of its discretion in denying his motion to amend the divorce judgment.
[¶9] Ms. Day argues that the trial court should have awarded her counsel fees because the "effort and cost in defending [Mr. Day's motion to amend] was not her choice." A trial court "may" order a party to pay reasonable fees for actions concerning orders to amend an existing decree. 19-A M.R.S.A. § 952(3) (1998); see also Bryant v. Bryant, 411 A.2d 391, 395 (Me. 1980) (court has broad discretion in its decision to award attorney fees in spousal support actions). Given the merits of Mr. Day's motion, however unsuccessful, and the ability of each party to meet its own financial obligations, the trial court did not trespass beyond the bounds of its discretion in refusing to award Ms. Day her incurred attorney fees. See Lee v. Lee, 595 A.2d 408, 412 (Me. 1991) ("An award of attorney fees is generally based on the parties' relative capacity to absorb the costs of litigation.") (internal quotations and citations omitted). The entry is: Judgment affirmed.FOOTNOTES******************************** {1} The divorce decree reads, in part: The Separation and Divorce Agreement of the parties . . . and all terms and provisions thereof, which Agreement is attached hereto, is hereby adopted, incorporated by reference, and made a part of this judgment.

No justification for Warrington crest change
11:17am Thursday 27th December 2012 in Letters
I CANNOT believe that Warrington is changing its crest again. How can this be justified financially when the council says there will be a £12 million shortfall in the budget.
I didn't agree with changing the crest in the first place.
Now, having spent all that money and given the current climate and how many staff members have lost their jobs, who has seen fit to pass this?
A survey may have been completed as to people's views on the crest but were these same people made aware of the cost implications?
Especially following on from the impact on services across the town, which will undoubtedly be cut.

I don't think that the Warrington Crest is being changed and is used by the Civic Officers on their stationary and livery. However it is my understanding that the change may occur to the Warrington Borough Council Logo and I agree that it doesn't need changing except that it might not at the moment match the Red flag of the current majority of councillors at the Town Hall, no political bias intended just purely an observation of fact.

With three SEC teams in the top five for Houston (TX) Sharpstown linebacker Reggie Chevis, the odds are high that the 6-3, 240-pounder will end up playing his college football in that conference, especially since Texas A&M and Alabama lead, perhaps by a significant margin.
But what about Chevis makes him so special?
In short, it's a combination of size and athletic ability. There are certainly linebackers out there who are taller and a handful who are bigger (though not many at 240 pounds with a year of high school still left), there are few who can move at 240 pounds like Chevis, who is also blessed with a great deal of natural strength.
To be considered an SEC-type linebacker (add some quotations marks there, if you'd like), a middle linebacker has to be able to take on and beat blockers in the run-heavy league. An evaluator need watch no more than the first play on the highlight reel below to see Chevis do that. Twice, actually, on the same play.
Since he often plays close to the line of scrimmage as a 9 tech (and even with his hand on the ground as a defensive tackle), he has more experience in the trenches than many linebackers, which also gives him a chance to refine his angles to chase down ballcarriers downfield with his typical bad intentions.
Besides his overall level of physicality and toughness, what sets Chevis apart is his flexibility, which contributes heavily to his general bounciness and ability to sink his hips prior to impact with a ballcarrier. However, he does sometimes have issues re-directing in short spaces, which could partly be a function of mass, as his flexibility does appear more than adequate in other situations.
Chevis has admitted in the past that he needs to improve his ability to drop into coverage and has been working in those areas this spring to put some drops on his highlight reel during his upcoming senior season. His speed won't be a liability as he works there, but it also won't be his biggest asset and he'll have to learn to identify and read pass concepts in the same way he does running plays.
As Chevis does continue to grow in that area and become a more complete linebacker, he could close in on that coveted Alabama offer.

text: Even though we were one game away from a playoff appearance last year we would have done nothing without DMAC and that horrible defnesive scheme. The year of 2012 is all about the health of one player DMAC plain and simple. With him and the other weapons we are damn scary on offense. Palmer made the offense looked good at times but no defense he faced had to respcet the break away speed from the backfield that DMAC brings. Dmac made Campbell look above average. Imagine what a healthy DMAC and Carson would look like. It would bring nightmares to oppposing D cordinators. From free agency to the draft it wont matter much if DMAC is not able to stay healthy unless Jones has a break out year or another RB we get plays out of his mind on DMAC's level.The injury bug has hit DMAC every seaosn its time to leave him alone damn it the dude is a stud and the best back in the NFL and I dont just say that because im a homer Raider fan its the truth.

Wow! It's not very often that we get a brand new method of making Yoda!!
This one was invented by SuperFolder Jacob and the instructions are by his brother SuperFolder Nathan! Great job, guys!!!
The Quest for the perfect Cover Vader continues …
SuperFolder Will has been perfecting his Cover Vader and it looks really really close, huh?
Not sure how he could top this…. Great folding, Will!
Tommy's Head Contest — Creative Winner
As you know by now, the correct answer to the Tommy's Head question was that Tommy took Yoda's advice and got a supershort haircut. SuperFolder Jackson had the fastest answer and won the original artwork from the book.
However, I also said there might be a winner for the most creative entry.
There were some good ones, but this one was just so very very weird that I had to give it a prize:
this is how tommys head got shaved
by SuperFolder Derek
origami yoda heard tommy say something rude about dwight so dwight called the angry bird, his best friend who always has his back, dwight told the angry bird to shave his head. the angry bird got sick so he called alfred e neuman to do it, so when tommy went to sleep he tried but he fell asleep because he'd been staying up all night watching reruns of marine boy, so when he woke up he called handy smurf to do it but handy was captured by azrael and was saved by papa smurf so handy called the skinny piece of celeri that exercises and eats chocolate to do it so the celeri went to tommy and shaved his head.
that's my answer on how his head was shaved
Not sure what to send him…. maybe a free punctuation lesson! Hee hee, just kidding Derek!
Quick note from Webmaster Sam…
Hey SuperFolders…. Webmaster Sam here.
Just a note that if you want to speed up the process of getting your origami, you need to make your pictures a reasonable size and rotate them the right way. I can shrink them and rotate them for you, but that delays it and makes it more likely that your picture may get overlooked.

General Crease-Us! (That's an Origami General Grievous!) by SuperFolder Houston!
SuperFolder Houston has made a very bold finger puppet General Grievous! Very stooky!
Website Background and Theme — Keep Darth Paper or switch back to Origami Yoda?
Webmaster Sam wants to know what you guys want.
Someone complained that the new theme is hard to read. Should we switch back? or keep Darth Paper for awhile?
New Origami Jabba from new SuperFolder Ryan!
Wow, check out SuperFolder Ryan's new method of folding Jabba! It looks great!
Origami M'Lady Luggertuck by new SuperFolder!
This new SuperFolder –unnamed– created this Origami M'Lady at a booksigning in Jackson Mississippi.
I'm not exactly sure why M'Lady has a lightsaber!
Want to talk about the new Darth Paper book? Do it here. SPOILER ALERT
Hey, SuperFolders!
Now that most of you have had a chance to read the new book, I thought you might want a place where you could talk/comment about it.
If you HAVEN'T read the book, then don't look at the comments, because Spoilers ARE allowed here!
SuperFolder OscarH's Origami General Grievous!
You probably know by now that Origami General Grievous makes a surpise appearance in Darth Paper Strikes Back…
Well, that's just a drawing of course. Here's what one (very cool) SuperFolder thinks a real one would look like:

New recommendations issued today by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) on caffeine consumption during pregnancy call for a reduction of daily caffeine intake from no more than 300mg to less than 200mg. Current advice issued by NICE states that 'pregnant women should limit their consumption of caffeine to 300 milligrams a day.'
The latest recommendation is based on two linked studies conducted by the Universities of Leicester and Leeds which showed that the babies of pregnant women who consumed between 200 - 299 mg of caffeine per day were at an increased risk of fetal growth restriction (FGR) which could result in low birth weight (LBW) and/or miscarriage. The findings show that the higher the caffeine intake during pregnancy, the lower the baby's birth weight when compared to the babies of mothers who limited their caffeine consumption (<100 mg/day) when pregnant. Babies with LBW have also been known to have problems later on in life.
Researchers noted in their study that caffeine consumption for the majority of women during the first trimester of pregnancy decreased to below 200mg.
The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) supports this new advice by the FSA. Current advice is for women to avoid caffeinated drinks in the first trimester, after which women are advised not to consume more than two cups of coffee a day.
Pregnant women who are addicted to caffeine should consult their GPs and midwives on safe levels of consumption during this period, and wean themselves off caffeine products if possible. Common withdrawal symptoms include headaches, dizziness, irritability and stomach aches, lasting no more than a week.
Concerned women should note that caffeine is a stimulant present in beverages such as coffee, tea and in chocolate. It is also in cola and energy drinks. The RCOG advises moderate consumption of these according to the new recommendations which state clearly no more than:
2 mugs of instant coffee or
1 mug of filter coffee or
2 mugs of tea or
5 cans of cola or
2 cans of energy drinks or
4 bars of chocolate
per day.
Pregnant women whose current daily consumption of coffee or tea exceeds 200mg but less than 300mg need not worry about having consumed too much caffeine, as research shows that most women lower their overall caffeine intake during pregnancy to recommended levels. They should reduce their caffeine intake to less than 200mg/day for the rest of the pregnancy. More of such studies are required to test and confirm the findings.
The advice for couples planning to have children remains the same, that caffeine consumption has adverse effects on reproduction, including IVF treatment. Couples wishing to start a family should therefore limit their caffeine intake. Again, couples undergoing assisted reproduction should consult their doctors for more advice.

On tap at the Cleveland location. The menu notes: Imported German malts give this fest bier a deep copper color which is balanced by imported German noble hops.
The beer was light copper colored and clear with about 1 finger's worth of white suds. The aroma was nice, maybe more like a helles lager than a Vienna lager. Hints of biscuit and other mild malt aromas. Appropriately light flavored also, with biscuit and toast and just a little floral hops. Really good when you're in the mood for this style, but probably tough to order this when there are so many great house beers here.

Frostbite occurs when the body's tissues freeze deeply in the cold. Ice crystals that form in the tissues cause damage to the cells. It's important not to try to rewarm or treat frostbite until absolutely certain that the tissues will not refreeze, but it's best to thaw frostbitten tissue no later than 24 hours after the injury.
Frostbitten tissue can look blue, red, white or very pale. It often looks just like a burn. It may feel waxy or hard. Victims might not be able to feel frostbitten tissue. Many times, victims will not recognize frostbite symptoms.
Here's How:
- Stay Safe! It's more important to make sure no one else is injured by the cold. Only help if you can do so safely. Follow universal precautions and wear personal protective equipment if you have it.
- Remove the victim from the cold. DO NOT attempt to thaw frostbitten tissues if there is a possibility they could freeze again.
- Fill a shallow container with enough water to cover the frostbitten body part. The water should be about 98 to 105 degrees (normal body temperature or a little warmer).
- Continue to refresh the water in the container as it cools. Keep the water at the same temperature as consistently as possible. It should take about half an hour to thaw the frostbitten tissue this way.
- As soon as feasible, get the victim to medical assistance - even after thawing frostbite.
- DO NOT allow thawed tissue to freeze again. The more often tissue freezes and thaws, the deeper the damage. If the victim will soon be exposed to freezing temperatures again, wait to treat frostbite.
- NEVER rub or massage frostbitten tissue. Rubbing frostbitten tissue will result in more severe damage.
- DO NOT use any heating devices, stoves, or fires to treat frostbite. Victims cannot feel the frostbitten tissue and can be burned easily.
- In a pinch, body heat can be used to thaw mild frostbite or frost nip (tissues that are not quite frozen yet). For example, place mildly frostbitten fingers under the arm to keep warm.

What You Need:
- Sink, tub, or other container deep enough to cover the frostbitten part.

President's Community Update 9/15/10
GTS Community Update from President Lowrey
September 15, 2010
With the school year now in full swing these have been days filled with new beginnings for many members of the GTS community. It was my first Orientation Week as your Interim President. I enjoyed the week tremendously and felt privileged to be able to welcome the 55-60 new students who are joining us this term—an impressive number and an increase over last year's incoming class. Thanks to all who worked to make Orientation Week the informative and enjoyable time it was, particularly the Admissions Team of Billy Webster and Emily Beekman. Thanks also to our new students who have energized the entire community with their enthusiasm for the upcoming school year. It's in part thanks to them that this semester attendance in Chapel has been so gratifying, as has been the very positive response to the new Tuesday evening meal following the Eucharist. This past Tuesday night 125 were in attendance at Chapel.
During Orientation Week it was a special pleasure to welcome to the campus Bishop Peter James Lee, our new Dean, and to have him celebrate the opening Eucharist. Thanks also to the preacher at the service, Chaplain Stuart Hoke, and to the Director of the Chapel, Prof. Patrick Malloy. I am also pleased to welcome the Most Rev. Peter Carnley AC to our campus as Distinguished Visiting Professor of Anglican Studies. The former Primate of the Anglican Church of Australia and a noted author and theologian, Archbishop Carnley will be teaching two courses at GTS. We are indeed fortunate to have him with us. This update will alert you to several important upcoming meetings and events and will also explain some administrative changes here at GTS.
Trustee Meetings
In my last Community Update on 8/27, I referred to a four-point plan aimed at achieving financial and institutional health for the Seminary. The points can be encapsulated as follows:
- Eliminate all significant debt.
- Restore our endowment.
- Balance our budget.
- Refresh and renew our institutional health and mission.
As I also mentioned in this update, the first two of these goals represent a "swing" of over $60 million. With the help of Maureen Burnley and members of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, I have been working on the specific ways in which our current assets can be best utilized to achieve this very challenging plan. On Thursday, September 16 the Executive Committee will meet to review the work that has been done so far. Once refined and approved by them, the details of the plan will be presented to the full Board of Trustees at their meeting on October 15-16. If approved, the plan will be presented to the entire community shortly thereafter. Please keep the deliberations of both the Executive Committee and the October Trustee Meeting in your prayers as we seek to insure the continuance of the Seminary as a vibrant institution of theological learning.
GTS Departments and Staff
In the interest of making the Seminary's administration more effective, the decision has been made to merge the Seminary's Communications Office with the Department of Institutional Advancement. The new department will be called the Office of External Relations. This was the title the Seminary used in the 1980s for an office encompassing similar responsibilities, before the establishment of the present Communications Office. The Office of External Relations will have responsibility for development, communications, alumni/ae affairs, and marketing as well as the Chelsea Square Conservancy and the GTS Media Workshop. Because fundraising is so critical to the mission of our school and will require my constant involvement as President, I will myself be providing primary oversight of this new department. Charles Knapp, Vice President of Institutional Advancement and Alumni/ae Relations, will be departing GTS with our deep appreciation for the work he has done here. In the face of troubling news about the finances of GTS last year, Charles and his team none-the-less raised an impressive amount for the Seminary's Annual Fund—a figure that has set a high water mark in General's history. I am very grateful to Charles for agreeing to remain with us for a time to assist in the transition over to the new structure.
The day-to-day operations of the new Office of External Relations will be headed up by Bruce Parker, currently Executive Director of Communications. A 1984 graduate of GTS, Bruce has served the Seminary for the past 17 years and is the Seminary's most senior staff member. I am pleased to announce that under the new structure Bruce will become Associate Vice President for External Relations and Alumni/ae Affairs. While his primary area of expertise will serve the communications and marketing responsibilities of the new office, Bruce will draw upon his many years of working in close collaboration with previous development officers of the Seminary. He has been intimately involved in planning and creating support materials for many of our fundraising efforts including the last capital campaign. Before joining the GTS staff, Bruce served as a communications consultant to Washington National Cathedral, to Trinity Wall Street, and to the national offices of the Episcopal Church, and in this capacity provided support to many fundraising efforts.
In addition to Bruce, the new External Relations team will consist of Donna Ashley who has done excellent work for GTS as Senior Advancement Officer; Don Temples, who has served with distinction as Director of Development and who will continue in that role, and Chad Rancourt, Media Coordinator in the Communications Office. I take pleasure in reporting that Chad, a valued member of the GTS staff for the last seven years, will advance to the position of Director of Communications in the new Office of External Relations.
Although fundraising will become the central focus of the new department, the office will also coordinate the effort to market Seminary program offerings, a responsibility previously lodged with the Seminary's Marketing Team. The new office will also continue to provide a limited number of specialized production services, such as graphic production and photography. However, given reduction in force in each of these departments prior to the merger and the need to concentrate on fundraising, some internal support services previously provided by the Communication Office may need to be curtailed or appropriated to other GTS units. Similarly, the new office will maximize its efforts by accelerating the move to electronic communications and away from those venues that require paper. The move to electronic communications is both a cost consideration as well as a statement about stewardship of the environment.
I have met several times with the new External Relations staff and am excited by the synergy that I feel will be generated by this very talented group of people. Two members are alums of GTS and all four have made significant contributions to the Seminary over the years. I am looking forward to directing the efforts of this promising new department at GTS
In other staff changes, as many of you know, the Rev. Berto Gandara-Perea, our Director of Field Education, has also served as part-time priest-in-charge at the Church of the Intercession here in Manhattan. Berto has recently been called to a full-time position at Intercession and so will be leaving GTS sometime in October. He has done an excellent job in administering field education at the Seminary and in assisting our students with placements for Clinical Pastoral Education as well. Our prayers go with him in this exciting new ministry.
Given Berto's departure and that of our Chaplain, the Rev. Dr. Stuart Hoke (whose term expires in November), we are looking at ways to better integrate spiritual formation, academics, chaplaincy, and field work. After our Tuesday evening meal on September 28th we will have a special forum on this topic and the community will be invited to listen and provide feedback on a plan currently under discussion.
Matriculation 2010
On Thursday evening, September 30, students matriculating at GTS this year sign their names in the Seminary's historic Matriculation Book—as GTS students have each done for the past 188 years. What an amazing book, containing the signatures of all who have gone forth from this place to minister in Christ's name for nearly two centuries! It will be my first Matriculation Service as your President. I am told this is one of the most moving services we have at GTS and I'm looking forward to it. Officiating for his first time will be our new Dean, Bishop Peter James Lee. Whether you are matriculating or not, please attend this wonderful service. I also congratulate those who are matriculating as they are formally incorporated into this special community within the Church.
Until my next Update, please know that I welcome any questions or concerns you may have. Simply email me or see Chris McFadden to schedule an appointment.
God's peace,
The Rev. Lang Lowrey
Interim President
President's Community Update - August 27, 2010GTS Community Update from President Lowrey
August 27, 2010
These are busy days for our faculty, students, and staff members as we are all gearing up for Orientation Week and the start of classes. Many of us have the added anxieties of moving into a new home and beginning life as students after many years away from school. It's a time of new beginnings for everyone. Throughout the turbulent times in our lives worship and prayer are always powerfully centering elements, and so in the days ahead I would invite us all to be present in the Chapel of the Good Shepherd for as many of the services as we are able and, of course, to be faithful in our daily prayers. You have received several updates from me over the summer (also available at www.gts.edu in the Newsroom section). This update will fill you in on important new developments in several areas.
Seminary Finances
As explained in my last update, GTS and M&T Bank finalized a $5.3 million short-term loan on August 9. We are drawing upon these funds for current operating expenses. The loan will be repaid from the sale of residential units in the building known as Chelsea 2,3,4. Revenue realized from this sale is also expected to reduce the Seminary's overall bank debt by up to $3.9 million. While the loan achieves the critical goal of sustaining us through the upcoming school year, it is a small component of the following four-point plan that the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees and I are working on to achieve financial and institutional health:
• Eliminate all significant debt. The Seminary cannot afford to service its $33 million of current bank debt (which, with the sum the Seminary has borrowed from its endowment, totals $36 million). Moreover, GTS is an institution that should really carry no debt whatsoever.
• Restore our endowment. The Seminary's current $13 million endowment must be restored to a level of at least $50 million to yield sufficient revenues to sustain operations.
• Balance our budget. With a negative cash flow of over $5 million annually, we must find ways to reduce operating expenses and increase revenues.
• Refresh and renew our institutional health and mission. Financial instability has had an understandably negative effect on our programs and mission. We need to refresh GTS to full institutional health and vibrancy. This will be a major focus of Bishop Peter James Lee, our new Dean.
Together the first two points of the plan, eliminating debt and restoring our endowment, represent a "swing" of over $60 million. We are actively investigating how the Seminary's current assets can be leveraged to generate this sizable level of cash. The specific actions that we must take to effectively eliminate our debt and restore our endowment are currently being formulated. Even while they are in the formative stages it is clear they hold much promise but involve risks and pitfalls as well. I hope to continue this process and, with the Executive Committee's approval, to be able to submit a detailed plan to the full Board of Trustees at their meeting in October.
New Operational Structure
The elements of our four-point plan cannot be undertaken sequentially but must be achieved in tandem with each other. Toward the goal of balancing our budget some very difficult staff reductions have been recently implemented. I regret to report we have had to do a reduction in force this past week that included staff members in a number of GTS departments. I would like to thank all of those leaving GTS for their dedication to the Seminary and for the contributions they have made to our mission. We were as generous as possible with the terms and conditions of the notice and severance and, it should be noted, Tutu Center Coordinator and M.Div. student Chris Ballard resigned in order to undertake full-time study. These staff reductions, along with other related changes, will generate over $500,000 in savings. Although we anticipate no further significant reductions in our work force, we are working on some additional departmental reorganizations. The outcome of this I hope to report to you in my next community update.
New Working Group
Our life together last year and over the summer has been significantly impacted by increasing use of the Close for outside events and weddings. This is a sizable revenue stream for the Seminary. Another change to which we must adjust is the presence of our neighbors in the Chelsea Enclave. While these changes can involve understandable tensions, I do hope we will not succumb to having a fortress mentality about our Seminary. The church commissioned by Christ after all exists for the world and not the world for the church. To address the very real issues of privacy and security however, I have asked Billy Webster, our Director of Admissions, to convene a working group composed of staff, faculty, and students to consider ways in which the tensions arising out of our new openness can be effectively addressed.
Conduct Compliance Officers
This is a new title for the position held by Prof. Deirdre Good until her sabbatical term began. It assures that the Seminary has designated officers to whom any member of our community can bring concerns about sexual harassment, the safety of our children, or instances of discrimination of any kind. I am pleased to report that Debra Bush Ford, Financial Aid Administrator and Drew Kadel, Director of the St. Mark's Library, are now our Conduct Compliance Officers. You may turn to either of them in complete confidence with any of these concerns knowing they will take immediate and proper action.
IT Survey
A survey of the Seminary's information technology will be underway shortly, aimed at increasing end-users' abilities as well as the capabilities of our network. More on this in future updates.
As mentioned in a recent email concerning Orientation Week, we are working to consolidate several Seminary calendars to create a single, all inclusive source for all Seminary programs and events. In the meantime, please note that the designated purpose of the calendar on the Seminary's website is to inform external audiences of public events happening at the Seminary.
The calendar on iGoogle is the seminary's academic calendar. I plan to have news for you soon about a new comprehensive calendar for all events.
Tuesday Nights
Seminary alumni/ae from not too long ago will remember the wonderful sense of community enabled by having an evening meal together following the Holy Eucharist on Tuesday nights. I am pleased to report we have reinstated this supper and that it will be free to members of the community. It will be a simple meal consisting of a hearty soup, salad, bread, and, I'm told, a scrumptious desert. Please plan to make this a part of your week.
Our Faculty
I would also like to recognize our esteemed faculty for all the work they have done over the summer to prepare for the upcoming school year, not only to prepare the full slate of offerings for the Michaelmas term, but also for the work of Dr. Ted Gerbracht in arranging courses featuring our splendid adjuncts and visiting professors.
Bishop Peter James Lee
As reported earlier, Bishop Peter James Lee, will be joining us for several events during Orientation Week and, after completing his ministry at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, will arrive as our Dean on September 30, in time to officiate at our Matriculation Service. Those of you present for Orientation will want to extend to him a warm GTS welcome.
I realize that nearly all the news in this update involves change, something all of us have difficulty with from time to time. But I would challenge us that our stated mission is to educate and form leaders for the church in a changing world. We, as the church, are in the "change business" and have been agents of change from our earliest days. So, as we begin this school year perhaps the challenge before us is to actually embrace change, knowing its proven potential to reify our mission in the world!
As always, I'm pleased to meet with you to discuss questions or concerns you may have about items in this update or other matters related to our life together. Simply contact Chris McFadden to schedule a time with me. Best wishes for the exciting days ahead!
God's peace,
The Rev. Lang Lowrey
Interim President
The Rev. Canon C.K. Robertson Sermon
Sermon preached at the Eucharist in The Chapel of Good Shepherd, General Seminary
October 15, 2010 on the occasion of the meeting of Seminary Board of Trustees
The Rev. Canon C. K. Robertson, Ph.D.
I don't like spicy foods. It's strange, really. My mother loved her food fiery hot, the spicier the better. If it didn't bring tears to her eyes, she said it was too bland. One might think, then, that it is in my blood, but no. A little black pepper is about as exciting as I can handle. So when I see something with curry or tabasco, I face a dilemma. I cannot get rid of it, so my only recourse is to dilute it somehow, add enough of something else—anything else!—to make it manageable. I cannot change the spice into something it is not, but I can find a way to make it less…effective.
Jesus' words in this reading from Matthew's Gospel offer an intriguing challenge to us today here at The General Theological Seminary. These words about salt and light come, we know, immediately after the Beatitudes. They form a bridge between the final blessing for those who are reviled and persecuted for Jesus' sake to the practical challenges found in the remainder of the Sermon on the Mount. As such, these words about salt and light are properly understood as being words not for the masses but for those who claim to be disciples and disciple-makers, those whose actions, not just their words, would reveal whether they were building on solid rock or shifting sand. Indeed, as one of the first parts of the first set of teachings in this Gospel, these words about salt and light ultimately look towards the end of the story, to the risen Jesus' command to make disciples, to baptize, to teach. Thus, while helpful for any part of the Church to read, these words are especially apropos for a system whose entire purpose is the training and formation of ordained and lay leaders to fulfill that great commission.The words are so familiar, however, that we may lose the essence of what is being said. We all know how the phrase "salt of the earth" is used to describe nice, decent, ordinary folk…but Jesus is talking about a lot more than simply being nice. Salt may be a preservative, but it does not preserve the status quo. No, that which it touches suddenly tastes different. In its own way, it spices things up. Light operates a little differently. It, too, is an additive, in that it is not inherently a part of the thing it touches. But when it touches something, when light makes contact with what was formerly in darkness, then suddenly it all seems different. Salt enhances, light exposes.
Both are change agents.
As some students here have heard me repeat, a former Army Chief of Staff once said, "If you don't like change, you're going to like irrelevance a lot less." We need salt. We need light. No, we need to BE salt and light for the sake of all those who live outside the walls of Chelsea Square. Now, change for change's sake is not what Jesus was talking about. After all, we know that if you pour a pound of salt onto your friend's meal, she is not going to be very happy about it. And if you shine a really bright light towards a colleague, he will probably shield his eyes since you are actually preventing him from seeing anything around him. Salt and light are to be added in appropriate amounts to those things you want to enhance or see. But I am not convinced that the danger before our Church is one of being too salty or too bright. No, I think the greater danger we face is the dilution of salt by adding in so many other unnecessary things. With light, we don't even have to put it under a bushel; our danger is in hiding it behind multiple layers of stained glass so that you can barely make out anything else in the room. The danger for us is not too much change; it is the avoidance of it at all costs.
"You are the salt of the earth," Jesus says, "but if salt has lost its taste, how can its saltiness be restored?" It is, of course, a rhetorical question. Sodium chloride cannot lose its internal properties, but if it is diluted enough where you barely know it's there, how in the world can you purify it, bring it back? The obvious answer is: you can't. And once the Church has become irrelevant, how in the world can we hope to be a transforming agent for the world? Having lived and worked in the Church of England when I was doing my doctoral studies in Durham, I saw firsthand how few people went to church other than for special services of "hatching, matching, and dispatching," as they said. I watched as the same parish church that was full to overflowing on a Saturday for the funeral of a beloved villager had only eight people in its pews the next day for Sunday Eucharist. When I asked one friend in my village why he did not go to church, he looked perplexed and innocently said, "Why would I?" The issue was not that he was against it. Rather, church and Christianity-as-represented-by-the-Church was, quite simply, irrelevant. We are not living in England or Europe, but in this case, sadly, we are catching up to them much faster than we want to admit. Only a few years ago, it was just the mainline churches that were in decline, as we were reminded again and again by other more robust denominations and independent megachurches. Now the most recent research shows that decline is almost universal, as the Southern Baptist Convention even experienced decline. When one Episcopal colleague heard this, he actually cheered. I hardly think any cheering is in order. "Why would I?" is a more pervasive, more perilous challenge before us than the usual inter- and intra-denominational conflicts that consume so much of our attention, our time, our energy. "Why would I?" is a question we must be able to answer.
Both before and since I became Canon to the Presiding Bishop, I have had the privilege of serving as a consultant, an outside voice, to congregational and diocesan leaders. Each time, I have begun by asking them a question: "Why do you exist? Why does you church, your institution exist?" I receive various responses, including looks of surprise, annoyance, or even anger. One vestry person actually shot back a verbal retort, "How dare you," he said, "We've been here for over a hundred and fifty years!" I quietly replied, "I didn't ask you how long you've existed. I asked you why you exist. What difference does it make to the world around you now that you are here?"
Years ago, in the first parish I served after ordination, I worked alongside a remarkable lay staff person named Louisa. Wherever she went, she exuded life. With whomever she met, she left an impression. When the cancer she thought was long gone suddenly reappeared, everyone around her began to mourn and grieve for her. She alone seemed unbowed; disappointed, yes, but unbowed. Not knowing she was walking up from behind, one friend was caught saying to me, "How awful that she is dying of cancer." "Not so," Louisa interjected, "I am simply living with cancer!" Until the moment she took her last breath this side of Paradise, Louisa did just that. Is it any wonder that lay leaders, priests, even a couple of bishops came to see her before she died, not so much to bless her as to be blessed by her.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu writes, "Times change and situations seem to change, but there is still a great need for prophets, for God's ambassadors, to stand up and be counted." This is true for us as individuals, and perhaps even more for us as institutions. Let us be living institutions, not dying ones. Dying institutions worry and expend their energy on preserving themselves and the status quo; living institutions are committed to doing whatever is needed to help effect the transformation of the world around them. Dying institutions are obsessed with immortality—with making sure they survive in the way they have always known; living institutions are open to the death of some things, knowing that only then can they experience the resurrection that leads to a new life. Every week, we proclaim that we are a people who believe in the "resurrection of the body," but more often than not our actions say that what we really mean is that we believe in the "ongoing preservation of this body as we know it." Resurrection people invest their five talents in change and as-yet-unknown possibilities. Preservation people horde and hide their one talent, burying it so that they pretend there is no risk.
Jesus had little problem provoking his listeners, including—no, especially—those who claimed to be God's ministers. He did this because he desperately wanted to see them be what they could be. He wanted them to be salt, he wanted them to be light. He wanted them to be disciples and disciple-makers, change agents for the transformation of the world. Now, as then, he invests time and energy in such leaders, that we might dare not to cling to what we think can never change, but to open ourselves to new possibilities and resurrection hope. Let us be salt, let us be light, to the glory of God.

New Program in Spiritual Guidance of Children14 September 2010
GTS to Offer New Program in the Spiritual Guidance of Children
New York City – Beginning this fall, The General Theological Seminary (GTS), in partnership with the Center for the Theology of Childhood, will offer an innovative certificate program in the spiritual guidance of children. The program will provide both academic learning and practical training for leaders who seek to nurture children's relationship with God. The Rev. Dr. Jerome W. Berryman, noted author, educator, and founder of Godly Play®, will join members of the Seminary faculty in teaching courses about children's spirituality, theological views of children, wonder and play in a theological context, and the spirituality of children in literature and film, as well as parables, biblical theology and liturgy with a focus on children's spirituality.
"Children have a natural, deep spirituality," said the Rev. K. Jeanne Person, Director of General Seminary's Center for the Christian Spirituality. "They know God even before stories and symbols. They need adults who can nurture their sense of the holy and help them discover a language for their faith."
General's new program will equip faith community leaders, clergy, chaplains, educators, parents, and others to offer spiritual guidance to children. Courses are designed in intensive formats, taking place over a period of a few days or a weekend, to allow students to pursue study concurrent with other commitments, such as jobs and families. Dr. Berryman will teach the program's inaugural three-day course, Theology and Children: Past, Present and Future, on the weekend of October 22, 23 & 24, as well as The Spirituality of Children on November 10, 11 and 12. The Rev. Dr. Patrick Malloy, GTS professor of liturgics, will teach Children's Spirituality in Worship on November 13 & 14.
Because the certificate program is new, General will offer rolling admissions this academic year which enables prospective students to apply at any time. The Seminary is also offering a discounted introductory tuition for students who pay for the entire program before October 1, 2010. Students are also welcome to register for individual courses to enhance their ministries, spiritual lives and relationships with children. Detailed information about courses and the certificate program, including housing options, can be found on the Seminary's website, www.gts.edu.
"We're delighted to be partnering with the Center for the Theology of Childhood in creating this unique program," said Dr. Ted Gerbracht, the Seminary's chief academic officer and himself a 35-year veteran of teaching and directing Christian education in a parish. "It's really a groundbreaking venture for the Seminary," he continued, "one that connects all the resources of the academy with children, who are the church's future."
The General Theological Seminary, located in the heart of New York City, educates and forms leaders for the church in a changing world. Founded in 1817 as the first theological seminary of the Episcopal Church, General offers certificate and degree programs including the Master of Divinity, Master of Arts, and Doctor of Theology. The Seminary is also home to the Desmond Tutu Center, a full-service conference center with sixty modern guest rooms.

Lang Lowrey Appointed Interim President
General Seminary Appoints Interim President
New York City – In accordance with an action plan made at their meeting last month, the Board of Trustees of The General Theological Seminary on June 9 unanimously approved the Rev. Lang Lowrey III, 56, to be the Seminary's Interim President. Lowrey is currently founding vicar at St. Benedict's Episcopal Church in Smyrna, Georgia and also serves as a senior partner in two Atlanta based firms, Renova, a bank restructuring and consulting company, and Genesis Business Advisory, which provides management and investment services to small- and mid-sized businesses.
Seminary trustees decided that the serious financial challenges currently faced by the Seminary would be most effectively addressed by dividing the position of Dean and President into two separate positions, a practice common in most academic institutions. As President, Lowrey will have all constitutional powers previously lodged with the Dean and President; however the Seminary will also begin an immediate search for a Dean to have oversight of the academic and day-to-day operations of General. "We believe Fr. Lowrey is uniquely qualified to lead the Seminary in addressing its immediate challenges and to prepare the way for longer-term leadership beyond the interim period," said Chair of the Board's search committee Dr. Michael Gilligan.
After college at Georgia Tech and Georgia State, Lowrey owned and ran several successful ventures before selling them to create Buckhead Technology Angels to incubate emerging technology companies. He twice was selected to run Fortune 500 firms facing difficult challenges, implementing complex turnaround plans and securing robust equity events. Following a period of discernment, he responded to a call to ordained ministry. As a postulant from the Diocese of Atlanta, he attended Candler School of Theology and was ordained to priesthood in 2004. Following parish ministry in Florida, Fr. Lowrey was asked by Bishop Neil Alexander to plant a church and day school in the Diocese of Atlanta. This new start involved locating, financing and purchasing land, designing the facility, building the church and most importantly, finding parishioners. St. Benedict's Episcopal Church and Day School is now fully established, and is in the process of calling a rector to replace Lowrey, the founding vicar.
"Fr. Lowrey brings to GTS a unique combination of skills that match perfectly the Seminary's immediate institutional needs," said Board chair the Rev. Canon Denis O'Pray at a gathering of students, faculty, and staff following the Board meeting. "He has high-level and proven abilities in the areas of management, finance, and administration while also possessing an in-depth knowledge of the Episcopal Church and its ordained ministry." Following the remarks by Canon O'Pray, Lowrey addressed the community. "God is offering us a great opportunity," he told those assembled in Seabury Auditorium. "Dramatic actions are needed within the next sixty days but the opportunity to take this task and to succeed is truly awesome. We need to embrace the reality of the situation but I have confidence in our collective abilities." O'Pray said that Fr. Lowrey would begin work immediately, before the departure of the Seminary's current Dean and President, the Very Rev. Ward B. Ewing, so that there is ample time for the two to work together to ensure a smooth transition. Dean Ewing had announced in December of 2009 his intention to retire and, with his wife Jenny Ewing, to return to their family homestead in Ten Mile, Tennessee. On the evening of May 18 over 300 well wishers attended a Festive Farewell to the Ewings held in the space that will become the Seminary's new library.
The General Theological Seminary in the heart of Manhattan is a vibrant community dedicated to the critically important enterprise of theological education. Founded in 1817 as the first seminary of the Episcopal Church, General cherishes its heritage while enthusiastically embracing the challenges of preparing leaders for the church in a changing world. Over the past decade, the Seminary has made a $70 million investment in preserving its landmarked campus; has opened a major conference facility, the Desmond Tutu Center; and has undertaken one of the largest geothermal initiatives in the northeast. General's new state-of-the-art library is slated to open in 2011. The Seminary extends a warm invitation for all constituencies to share in its mission and in the excitement of its ongoing life.

Worst Player
Goal Choice
M. BeckmannNordsjælland Position: Midfielder
Team Ratings
Shakhtar Donetsk
A. Pyatov
Did not have too much to do, but when called upon made the routine saves he needed to. Flapped at one John free-kick.
D. Srna
Charged forward well from the right back position, but wasted several good crossing opportunities. His battle with John on the flank was a highlight of the match.
Y. Rakitskiy
Imposing physical performance. Threw his weight around with authority to help Shakhtar repel the Danes.
O. Kucher
Solid if unspectacular defensive performance, though squandered possession several times in the first half.
R. Raţ
Caught out positionally early on but grew in stature as the game went on, and was largely untroubled in the second half.
Put in several decent crosses and showed lovely footwork at times. Did not have enough of the ball to make a big impact.
Several fiery tackles in the middle got his team moving forward, and when that failed his inventive passing had the same effect. Got forward into dangerous areas and dictated the play from the center.
Had a headed chance in the first half on 17 mins. Got better as the match progressed. Proved a real threat in the second half. Substituted for Douglas Costa.
T. Hübschman
A hustling, bustling performance in the middle of the pitch, covering his fellow midfielders' forays forward. Won possession countless times.
H. Mkhitaryan
Linked up with Fernandinho well, broke into dangerous areas constantly, and continued his scoring spree with a near post finish before pouncing on a rebound. Man of the match, Nordsjaelland couldn't cope with his clever movement.
Luiz Adriano
Missed a good chance on five minutes, then picked up a yellow card for simulation, but his run into the channel to find space to cross led to the crucial opening goal.
J. Hansen
Received a soft yellow card for telling the referee to book Luiz Adriano, while his kicking occasionally landed his side in trouble.
P. Mtiliga
The left back received good cover from John and protected his flank well, although was caught in a bad position for the first goal.
I. Runje
Thunderous in the challenge but was let down by his fellow defenders, as the nimble Shakhtar forwards made hay on the counter-attack.
J. Okore
Defensively sound, though caught out for the second goal. Was not able to cope with Mikhitaryan's movement at times.
M. Parkhurst
Took the ball forward well at times and had to do a lot of chasing in midfield.
M. Beckmann
Was left isolated up front for most of the game, and did little with the ball on the few occasions that he got possession in decent areas. Largely anonymous.
K. Lorentzen
Had one early chance and stopped Rat from advancing, but failed to provide enough of a threat to the Shakhtar goal and was substituted near the end.
S. Christensen
Did not see much of the ball, though tidy in possession in the first half. Was substituted on 60 minutes.
N. Stokholm
Broke from midfield well and had one decent long-range strike on the Shakhtar goal that went straight down the keeper's throat.
E. Adu
Faced a difficult task all night in trying to quell Shakhtar's fleet-footed breaking midfielders. Not effective enough.
J. John
His set pieces failed to pressure the opposition defense enough, though one free-kick almost resulted in a goal. Took the ball forward well, provided cover on the left, and gave a good account of himself.

An Upstate man is hoping social media will help solve a triple murder at the Blue Ridge Savings Bank.
His mother, bank teller Sylvia Holtzclaw, along with customers Eb and Maggie Barnes, were shot and killed on May 16, 2003.
This week marks the 11-year anniversary of the killings. No one has been arrested. No suspects have ever been named, though the FBI released a sketch of an unidentified man they said was reportedly in the bank moments before the robbery and shootings. See the sketches here.
So David Holtzclaw decided recently to create a You tube video, in hopes of reaching out to more people about the case.
He believes by sharing the video, it may prompt someone to come forward and share information about what happened that day.
The video includes information about where the triple shooting happened, along with personal information about Sylvia Holtzclaw and a plea from her son for information.
David is asking to people to share the video on social media. Mobile users can watch it here: http://youtu.be/s3Q0hmZiK6A
