It is time to move to the second set of descriptors that I mentioned in the seventh column of this series as being one of the ones that I looked forward to include in Rough Quests. I'm talking about skills, of course. Since RuneQuest is my first and foremost inspiration, it's useful to start by looking at the way it handles skills before considering other games that also use skills.
To a great extent the skill system is the core of RuneQuest � and BRP by extension. Basically skills are different fields of action at the disposal of the character. Skills evolve independently by their usage, training or research. Skills are ratted on a faux percentile basis. I say that it's a 'faux' percentile basis because skills can improve past 100% (to allow for the improvement of special and critical successes even if normal success are stuck at 95% - if you have a skill of 200% you still fail on a roll of 96 to 100 but you get a special success on a roll of 11 to 40 and a critical on a roll of 1 to 10). Furthermore skills are grouped into categories like Stealth, Communication, Magic, Combat skills. In order to discuss skills I decided to resort to an interaction between me and Jane Williams that took place between the 12th and the 14th June. This requires some background: More than 10 years ago both I and Jane were active participants in the RuneQuest Digest list. Jane had her own homepage and there I discovered a page with her thoughts about combat in RuneQuest that really made me think. Years passed and some time ago I decided to look for it again. In the meantime Jane had moved to HeroQuest and for a different type of roleplaying. Because of that she had deleted the page from her site. After an exchange of emails she was kind enough to send it to me. It sparked a virtual conversation about skills in RuneQuest (and, by extension, any game that focuses on skills), a discussion that I edited to assemble the present column. (Needless to say, Jane authorised me to publish what she wrote in our interaction.)
While presenting our debate I start with her original thoughts. Next I present the selections from our emails by their order (Sergio 1, Sergio 2, etc.; Jane 1, Jane 2, etc.). I include in italic additions that I introduced in the column to make things easier to understand (or to cover for deletions from the stuff in the emails). Finally I added my personal remarks about the interaction within brackets, also in italic.
On complex abilities that incorporate what in RuneQuest are separate skills
JANE'S ORIGINAL THOUGHTS 'You learn to fight with a set of weapons: like "broadsword and shield". If you've learnt that, then "broadsword alone" would be a separate, but related, skill. "Broadsword two-handed" would be another.'
(For those not acquainted with RuneQuest I must remark that in this game combat skills are weapon-based and broken up into offensive and defensive skills. This means that there are skills for dagger attack and dagger parry; pique attack and pique parry; long-bow attack (but, understandable enough, not parry); and so on. In the passage above Jane questions the RuneQuest approach from the ground up.)
Sergio 1: 'Ability has 2 components (I'm not including the impact of attributes, even if it was briefly discussed with Jane):
A skill. This is a skill in the RQ sense, say, 1h sword, 2h mace, etc.'
Jane 1: 'Specific, not broad, right?'
Sergio 2: 'Yes.'
Sergio 1: 'An experience field. This is a broad ability that includes a bunch of skills. It can be Dojo Karate combat, street-fighting, Roman legionnaire warring, Mongol combat, etc.'
Jane 1: 'Like a keyword, in HQ?'
Sergio 2: 'Interestingly enough it never occurred to me that yes, it may work like a keyword in HQ until yesterday when I was writing you! I guess that yes, it works a lot like a keyword but implementation will be different.'
Sergio 1: 'The sum of the skill and the experience field gives the value of reference.'
Jane 1: 'Got you. Good idea, though I can see this being cumbersome in face-to-face role-play.'
Sergio 2: 'I suppose you mean the re-calculation of abilities, right? Well, I think that in the end most players will have some preferred abilities they will use more often. I may even have a rule - optional most likely - where if they use a combination that is not in their favoured abilities record they will suffer a penalty.'
Jane 2: 'No! Take a look at how augments get used in HQ. Yes, there are a *few* "preferred combinations". But as soon as the setting gets interesting, those combinations get altered or added to. And that's a lot of the fun. In this system, I think finding new combinations will be fun. Well, if it isn't, it means the system is inherently Not Fun :('
Sergio 3: 'Good point! You're right, I should leave it to players.'
Sergio 1: 'The idea with experience fields is that you learn how to combat in a given context, and you learn how to use a bunch of skills in that context, either together or separate. This corresponds to your idea that one does not learn sword separate from shield, for instance.'
Jane 1: 'Since then I've done a lot more re-enactment type fighting, and I'd move even more towards a generic "Close Combat" skill. Yes, knowing that weapon/combination specifically will help, but it's the overall ability to read your opponent and adjust your footwork that counts for a lot more.'
Sergio 2: 'I didn't do weapon re-enactment but I did Tae Kwon Do and my perception is the same. In martial arts one trains very specific techniques and combination of techniques, but when the moment comes to sparring the set of techniques used is very limited and the combinations are not like the ones used in forms. And the way things are done is very different. One of the consequences is that the difference between styles (Karate, TKD, Kung Fu, etc.) is minimal. Once I was having a chat with a friend that practiced a variety of Karate with marked differences to TKD. We were discussing the forms and the theory, each one of us defending our damsel. At a certain point we just started sparring, just for fun. What happens is that all the theory went away and we ended doing basically the same.'
Jane 2: 'Good - since we're coming at it from very different angles, I think that helps confirm it.'
Sergio 2: 'I have also been reading a lot on Renaissance warfare meaning a lot of combat accounts. It's very rare to find a mention where a technical skill meant a difference, and when this happens it is recorded precisely because it is exceptional. For instance, there's a XV century record of a battle where a nobleman had to wrestle his enemy down. The chronicler records how amazed his companions were because wrestling was a game for young people to prepare them for battle, not something one would do in actual battle. There are other cases like this. So, yes, I think you're right, the differences are minimal.'
Jane 2: 'Umm.. I think what I was saying was that overall "combat awareness" overrides technical differences, not that technical differences are irrelevant.'
Sergio 3: 'I get it better. Of course technical differences are important but not in the sense that they provide a clear advantage to one of the sides if the skill is good.'
On the interplay between different but related experience fields
Jane 2: 'Concepts like "I don't care what that weird weapon is, he can't move it from right to left fast enough to guard his left side from *that* position."'
Sergio 2: 'If there's one thing that makes things different are the conventions and rules (formal or informal) of combat. In martial arts these are related to what is acceptable like attacks with legs and feet, low attacks, etc.'
Jane 2: 'Good point! I hadn't thought of it that way before, but you're right.'
Sergio 2: 'In real war it relates to the degree of attrition, the weapons that can be used, etc. IMO this is one of the things that really sets things apart. The problem is, how to incorporate this into a rpg? My take is to simply incorporate into the field of experience a qualification in terms of lethality. This becomes a penalty in combat to the side that has to adjust to the level of lethality of his adversary. Say, a vicious street fighting thug is fighting a nobleman in a gymnasium. The thug wants to adapt to the softer and less brutal conventions of the gym. This is hard for him, so he suffers a penalty.'
Jane 2: 'Could work, yes. And the nobleman would suffer a penalty if it was for real, a morale problem as soon as he realised how vicious it was.'
Sergio 2: 'Second example (a real world one), the European Portuguese are fighting the Kerala Indians. Combat in Europe is a lot more vicious than in India, and the Portuguese want it that way. The Kerala Indians are disadvantaged. (Actually I faced a situation like this once in my life when I was kid practising Judo.)'
On the interplay between experience fields and skills
Sergio 1: 'Experience incorporates all the weapons or combinations of weapons common in the experience field. Say, a medieval warrior would learn 1h sw/mace/spear/ax, shield, 2h sw/mace/spear/ax, mounted weapons, brawling, etc. A XIX century gentleman would learn fencing, shouting, boxing, etc., and so on. The idea with 2. is that there are particular techniques one learns for each weapon, and these are still useful.'
Jane 1: 'Indeed - and general "Close Combat" will show you that some of the techniques one learns with greatsword, for instance, are applicable to quarterstaff. (Yes, really! I now use a staff for training, and will buy myself a greatsword once I'm ready and have the cash.)'
Sergio 2: 'I understand that (see above my martial sparring example) but I also think I should leave a space for something that may not be too realistic but that corresponds to popular perceptions based on fiction and that is fun in game terms. That's why I may leave more space for narrow techniques associated with weapons than what would be a consistent portrait of reality.'
Sergio 1: 'One example will clarify what I have in mind: Say, a Tae Kwon Do black belt is attacked in the street by a band of thugs. He has good Adroitness, the relevant attribute and he will put it to use. He knows his TKD techniques and, once more, he will use it. Yet, he is not experienced with using the same in a street-fight, so he will have to go with his low level of experience in this context. Was he sparring in a TKD championship he would rely on his experience in TKD sparring. In other words, the character learns a broad set of combat skills with his experience, and he develops particular techniques that are used with these skills.'
Facing the unknown
JANE'S ORIGINAL THOUGHTS: 'What's your opponent using? If it's a weapon combination you've never met before, you're in trouble. Half the moves you know and rely on won't work. I can't imagine how to work this into the system as yet, but it needs to be there.'
Sergio 1: 'In your file you also point to the impact of facing new situations for the first time. Now, part of this is factored to experience as detailed in the paragraph above, yet there is more to it. When fighting you have to consider your skill with your weapon (or combination of weapons), but you also have to consider the combination of weapons being used by your adversary and *your* (not your adversary's) experience with it. You pick the lowest value among both. For ex, (A) is fighting with his sword and shield, an enemy with 2h spear. As you say, it is as important for (A) both his skill with the weapons he is carrying and his skill (what he knows about) with the weapons being carried by his adversary. So, when combating we pick the lowest value of these two as the value of reference.'
Jane 1: 'Yes!'
Sergio 2: 'This is also a way of ensuring a more realistic broader set of combat skills. If you need to know not only the skills for the weapons you use but also the skills for the weapons your enemy may be using you cannot concentrate on the former only.'
Jane 2: 'Yes - unless of course you find someone who's like the Three Musketeers. Rapier, and only rapier.'
Sergio 3: 'The approach can incorporate this. In fact, it may be the major difference between warfare-oriented experience and civil-oriented experience.'
Jane 3: 'A good point, though of course not all societies make the distinction.'
Sergio 4: 'True. Let's say that there are extremes where we find people totally dedicated to war (in contemporary terms special ops-like guys and gals) and people completely devoid of combativeness (the Princess of fairy tales). Most fall in-between with different shades of aggressiveness.'
Sergio 3: 'In both cases we can have people with high levels of skill in combat, but in the first case there will be a much larger set of techniques available to the character. A medieval nobleman knows how to handle many weapons while a 18th century courtesan can only use two or three, even if at high levels of skill.'
Sergio 2: 'Another interesting aspect to the system is that it makes creatures and monsters interesting again. Yes, a Lion may not have high combat skills when compared to a human, but unless your character is a Lion hunter he will not know how to fight the Lion and he cannot rely on the skills he uses to fight humans... This is something that is important to me because it corresponds to the lore and reality about animals. After all, if we take the stats for most real world beasts as we find them in rpgs they are not a big deal, not even for an average human being. Yet, they scare us to death right here.'
Jane 2: 'Very good point - I'm scared of horses, because they're big, and to me, completely unpredictable. A friend is used to them, to her they're not unpredictable, so she's got nothing to be scared of. Trouble is, you're going to end up with a skills list a mile long :('
Sergio 3: 'Maybe. My idea is to have no list of skills at all. I will have types of damage (blunt, blade, etc.) and next include notes on particular skills with each experience field, stating which type of damage is done. Say, if it is about Roman soldiers it gives them Pillum (thrust), Gladium (cut and thrust), etc.'
Jane 3: 'Ah, a list of "keywords" instead, from the look of it. Yes, much better.'
Sergio 4: 'Yes. HQ has influenced me at some levels. The major influence was in the way I see characters. Actually the feature I like more in HQ is the freeform narrative character creation mechanic. It was the reference to my GlovE project. I like it a lot more than the keyword method, actually.
One of the reasons why I like it so much is because of the Boring NPC Creation syndrome. I realised this to its fullest when I got the old RQ booklet Rune Masters. There they were, many excellent descriptions of cool characters... marred by boring lists of skills, magic, etc. It made me sick to think that I would have to do something similar to create my own NPCs. On the other hand, I never liked the D&D approach of different stat blocks for PCs, NPCs and monsters. One of the thing I like(d) about RQ was the fact that they all where handled in a similar manner. For years I thought how I could work out the mechanical rigor and tidiness of RQ stats with the coolness of narrative character descriptions without going back to the Rune Masters paradigm. I never found a satisfactory answer. HQ provided it.
The ideas presented so far work at a middle term. They include a closed list of attributes coupled with a set of pre-defined experience fields, a lot like HQ Keywords but with less of a laundry list presentation and more of a descriptive delivery. And ... very freeform skills. They either are taken directly from the description of the experience keyword, extrapolated from it or created by the players in a way that is consistent with the character.'
On developing related skills.
JANE'S ORIGINAL THOUGHTS - Someone who's a good fighter will pick up a new skill faster than someone who isn't, no matter if they've never used a weapon like it. Maybe we should take their top combat skill, divide it by some suitable number, and let them train in any other combat skill at a faster rate until they reach the answer. So a sword master (100%) using a whip for the first time would learn faster up to (say) 50%? 33%?
To a great extent this is covered in my proposal by the fact that different skills are used with a common experience field. Because of that I think I don't need to have rules for faster development of a new skill. Going back to Jane's example, the sword master has a high skill with sword, but he likely has a high experience in combat. Both may be related since he developed both consistently through his career. If he picks the whip for the first time he will have the low whip skill but he will benefit from the high combat experience.
I have to thank Jane a lot. Not only her original writings were very inspiring, her critical reply and encouragement to my musings (despite the fact that she is no longer interested in the type of roleplaying that may come out of it) helped me settle several issues in the development of Rough Quests, as we will see in the continuation of this series of columns. Thanks once more Jane.� �TQo�0~^�DҒt< ���� �ek��&Ǿ$�\۵������ZF��ȃuw��ݝ������I��ŃU ���Q�Y����ir2�H��R�2.u3MF�o�ع�q]4#A`pP5�(b��������&)���b�)ⰾ���p���7(��i���<��[-2g�L#�5[f� �g��?�*rV��G��f��8��*)��s'+20�ϟ��̑F����}�KB�<7����w��S�L�\����gb�����v���m9��W��iR���ބYŜv�d�y0'p2�I_�Fc��2>#o���A� )VL[Qk�?�3�`)<�У[�(*W.��J�H �?�t�X���C�t谙��� X�:@� \0w�~LqĤ��E�����-���r�F�k���Y���j�4q� �5��A�Q6�[�A�xG� [�>��w|?( f��ХθY䝛��$�c=�_����qN�ĦoǸ>O��_�|��&���/_M�i�7�"�宥��C�Чk0d��ӷ�L�h����;T�mu�C����G��U�-!�Ul{ �h�<\�bQX.�~���"��O�2*yP���cz���!�Gg�

Bearded guy plus guitar plus home-recording setup plus dingy motel in middle-of-nowhere Nevada equals City of Refuge, the latest album of intimate Americana by Castanets (a.k.a. the project of freak-folk's freakiest freak, Ray Raposa). Although past Castanets records tended to have a sparser, gothic country edge, Raposa's fourth record for Sufjan Stevens' Asthmatic Kitty label has a more cinematic scope. Splitting time between moody instrumentals and sinister hymns (particularly the reinterpretation of public domain song "I'll Fly Away"), Refuge draws great influence from its desolate setting. Harmonies float in the wind like ghost stories lost in a campfire's smoke. Spaghetti-Western guitars reverberate through dusty canyons and Raposa's vulnerable yelps drift along like tumbleweed blowing across vast stretches of desert.

It has come out that arguably the best player in the NBA will not be joining Team USA for the FIBA world championships this summer. Because of free agency, dealing with an upcoming movie, and the overall hard work that it takes to be a mega superstar in today's day-and-age, it looks like LeBron James will have to skip this summer's basketball action in Turkey.
In addition to LeBron James, it is also a strong possibility that guys like Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and Kobe Bryant will be missing the world's as well.
However, one guy who will not be missing this summer's games is the league's best point guard, Deron Williams (unless an injury prevents him from doing so).
What that means, is that D-Will is going to have to step up and truly show everybody why he is regarded as the league's top point guard by many. By having to play without some of the league's elite players, Williams' role is going to be that much bigger, and any success that he has will be that much more special.
This is especially true because Williams plays the point guard position. As a point guard, like a quarterback in football, it is Williams' job to lead the team down the court, and it is his decision-making that will make or break the team. Also, it is his responsibility to get the team to play together as one unit and to get the most out of all of the pieces around him.
Of course, the FIBA world championships are a lot different from the NBA season in regards to the level of intensity and style of game that the guys will play. It is more of a fun atmosphere, and although each team wants to represent its country with pride, it is just not the same game as the NBA game.
Nonetheless, if Deron Williams goes out this summer and puts on a clinic en route to a gold medal, his stock will definitely rise amongst the basketball world. And as a fan of the Utah Jazz, I can't help but be excited about that.
I see Deron Williams play on a consistent basis, and I feel like most people do not get that opportunity. He truly is a special and unique player, and I can't wait for a larger audience to get to see what I see all the time. They are surely in for a treat.

Corn "Risotto" Recipe
This side dish is soulful yet elegant and simple to make. It is a healthier take on creamed corn.
By making a corn stock to bind the corn instead of heavy cream, the dish turns out much healthier & more flavorful while still retaining the richness of creamed corn.
- 8 Ears of Fresh Corn
- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- 1 Large Sweet Onion - Diced (Vidalia if available)
- Pinch of Saffron
- 1 Vanilla Bean (Split & Scraped)
- Cayenne Pepper (To Taste)
- (Optional) 2 Slices Chopped Bacon (Cooked & Chopped)
- Shuck the corn and remove the kernels from the corn cobs.
- Make the corn stock by taking 2-3 ears worth of corn kernels and pureeing in a blender with just enough water to create a puree. Blend the corn 2 minutes longer than you think is needed. Strain into a sauce pan, add the saffron & vanilla, and cook over medium low heat.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the diced onion until moderately brown.
- Add the remaining corn kernels and cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the vanilla bean from the corn stock and add to the skillet. Cook for around 3 minutes or until the dish has thickened to your liking. Season to taste, top with bacon if using & serve.

Would you rather have a RINO who caucuses with the Republicans, or a Democrat who contributes to Sen. Reid's tenure as President of the Senate? It may seem an unsavory choice, but...
Former Republican Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) has been out of politics for less than a month, but I don't think he should get too comfortable: A new survey released Friday shows him crushing Democrat Ed Markey in a hypothetical matchup to fill John Kerry's soon-to-be vacant U.S. Senate seat.
A majority of Massachusetts voters would back former Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) over Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) in a special election to fill the seat expected to be vacated by Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), according to a poll released Friday.

What we like best:
What you should know:
Pack your bags and buckle up; it's time for a virtual all-American road trip! This basic map app gives kids an early introduction to the 50 states.
Children can choose one of four map segments (Midwest, Northeast, South and West) then place each state puzzle piece in the right location on the map. The states are labeled with their abbreviations, helping kids learn the shortened name as they master the location of every state on the map. The image for each state corresponds with things the region is known for—think potatoes for Idaho—and a verbal introduction, such as "Alaska starts with an A. Polar bears live in Alaska." Although the bright red arrows are a useful prompt, you'll need to leave the sound on, because without the verbal instructions and information, the game isn't overly intuitive.
As budding geographers becomes familiar with state abbreviations and locations, up the ante with the "alphabetical order" feature to remind children which states begin with which letters. Additional fun facts about each state—such as flags, flowers, birds and capitals—would make this app a must-have for your interactive library.

I was mired in so much twisted stuff with my family, with EJ, trying to protect myself and figure out what the hell was going on around me…in fact that pretty much describes everyday of my life before I met you. You cut through all the fog, it only looked like my life got crazy with Arianna and all that drama after we got together. The truth is everything was simple after I fell in love with you, I don't know how I got so lucky to find a man who is so warm and generous and loving first time out of the gate. I promise to never forget what a gift you are, I'm honoured that in a few hours you will be my husband. All my love, Will

Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiaryby David Sedaris
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Featuring David Sedaris's unique blend of hilarity and heart, this new illustrated collection of animal-themed tales is an utter delight. Though the characters may not be human, the situations in these stories bear an uncanny resemblance to the insanity of everyday life.
In "The Toad, the Turtle, and the Duck," three strangers commiserate about animal bureaucracy while waiting in a complaint line. In "Hello Kitty," a cynical feline struggles to sit through his prison-mandated AA meetings. In "The Squirrel and the Chipmunk," a pair of star-crossed lovers is separated by prejudiced family members.
With original illustrations by Ian Falconer, author of the bestselling Olivia series of children's books, these stories are David Sedaris at his most observant, poignant, and surprising.
"Outrageous....Wonderful...Sedaris's anthropomorphized creatures may seem domesticated, but this book, like his more familiar essays, is...wildly inspired — and a rip-roaring hoot." NPR
"Wickedly funny....These are some of Sedaris's best stories....The animals have given Sedaris's humor some new teeth: tiny and sharp, and sometimes even ready to draw blood." Los Angeles Times
"Wry and amusing." Chicago Tribune
"For the strong-stomached, these tales are toxic little treats, fun-sized Snicker bars with a nougaty strychnine center." Entertainment Weekly
"The hottest new voice on the animal fable scene....Funnier than 90 percent of humor writing available today." Washington Post Express
About the Author
David Sedaris is a regular contributor to the New Yorker and Public Radio International's This American Life. He is the author of the books When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Naked, and Barrel Fever.

- 60% of the time, graphics get less attention than GIFs.
- Unless you're big in the Harry Potter fandom.
- Something that takes 5 minutes often gets more notes than something that took hours.
- The longer you spend on something, the less people will care.
- You will be most proud of something that has very few notes.
- But you won't care.
- Because Photoshop finally worked and that's worthy of a celebration.
- Or something.

Outstretched arms is a prayer posture that pulls our awareness toward heaven. It is a posture that opens up the core of our body toward God. It is an internationally recognized posture of submission.Think about a person pointing a gun at you and yelling, "hands up". Your hands go up as a signal that you will do nothing more. You will submit to their authority.
The Exercise
Find a place where you can be alone and comfortable. Stretch out your arms and raise them above your shoulders, palms facing up and recite a prayer of praise and worship.
Here is a prayer from Psalm 63
"God – you're my God!
I can't get enough of you!
I've worked up such hunger and thirst for God,
traveling across dry and weary deserts.
So here I am in the place of worship, eyes open,
drinking in your strength and glory.
In your generous love i am really living at last!
My lips brim praises like fountains.
I bless you every time I take a breath;
My arms wave like banners of praise to you."
Let your spirit open up to God. Is He speaking to you?
Hold this posture until you feel done.
What was that experience like for you?
Have you lifted your hands to God like that before? Why or why not?
How was that different than a prayer with your hands on your lap in front of you?
Where else can you go to experience this posture of prayer? Backyard? Mountain top? Lake? Park?
Look at the photo below of a person stretching out their arms in worship – what does this stir in you?
A connection with this person? Fear of such open expression? Envy of the freedom of his spirit? Joy with him in his worship? Appreciation for creation and the Creator? Other?
Click the photo to enlarge.
"May the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice." (Psalm 141:2)
"In your name I will lift up my hands." (Psalm 141:2)
"At night I stretched out untiring hands." (Psalm 77:2)
"I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing." (1 Timothy 2:8)

The Program-Driven Church
- Monday, February 16, 2009
Some of those pastors who know better would like to do better. They remember the zeal they once had to preach the gospel, the joy they had studying and praying over their Greek and Hebrew bibles (time which is now spent managing a growing staff) as they prepared to bring the Word. They had hoped to minister the Word to people, to see them grow in grace and glorify God by doing things his way but few seemed to want that.
Those pastors with a conscience are troubled. They're afraid of what might happen if they begin to rock the boat. No one wants to preside over a Scottish Revival. Some stifle the pangs of conscience by telling themselves that they will begin a reformation just as soon as we get another Reformed elder but somehow the conditions never seem to be just right.
Other pastors have simply accepted the "program-driven" model as the only one available. These cats openly measure themselves by "buildings, bodies, and budgets" and they are unashamed. The entrepreneur might have taken a modest small to mid-sized congregation and "grown" it into a large and influential congregation. If it were a business, he might sell it and start again with a new one. Perhaps they've heard someone tell of an "ordinary means" model of ministry but it sounds exotic and they've never seen it. They see themselves as CEOs or as "Ranchers" and they have no idea how a "Word and sacrament" ministry could possibly function in a go-go 24/7 wired world.
Finally, to the engine of the program-driven church: the congregation. Not always, but often the congregation is just as culpable for turning the church into a mall. They want what they have (perhaps implicitly) demanded and it seems that they've demanded "the mall." After all, the mall is where they get their needs met. The mall forms their culture. It's comfortable. It's familiar. It works. The mall has a food court, a cinema, and all the right shops. Why can't the church be like that? What's wrong with it?
The main thing wrong with it is that the mall is the Kingdom of Me and My Choices. The Church is the Kingdom of Christ and his grace. They're two different kingdoms. The Kingdom of Christ is totalitarian. It is not a democracy. It is not egalitarian. It is not market-driven. It comes from heaven and enters history by the power of the Holy Spirit operating through the unlikely means of the preaching of the Gospel, the announcement of Good News, that something has been done for me, apart from me and that I benefit from all of that by hearing and believing. The Kingdom is not about my choosing but about being chosen. It's not about my sovereignty but about God's. There's no food court but just a holy meal where God the Son feeds his people with his own body and blood unto eternal life.
What to do? For those who know better they should pray for courage and for wisdom. Reformation has to begin somewhere. They need to begin teaching the elders what the church is, what ministry is, what the means of grace are, what the marks of the church are, and the purpose for which Christ has instituted his church. Then they have to begin teaching their congregations. Going slowly, being patient and careful of the well being of the sheep is essential to any Reformation. Yet there must be a certain resoluteness about this business. As reformation begins and programs diminish (they must decrease, Christ must increase!) some sheep will leave and find more attractive pastures with more and better programs. Know from the beginning that you will not "keep" them all. That's okay.
Your most fundamental conviction must be that the church is Christ's kingdom, that it belongs to him, that he bought it with his blood (Acts 20:28). As long as you know for whom it is you work, you'll be okay. If you're seeking Christ's glory and the salvation of his people, you'll be fine--even if a Scottish Revival does break out. If you're seeking something else, then perhaps you're in the wrong line of work?

I never thought I'd actually be making a post about my job. I'm at an impasse; I love everything about DQ. I love serving people, I love the usual customers, I love the extra money I get from tips. It's a fun, easy job.
Yet I can't stand how I'm treated like a tool. I (and everyone else) am replaceable to my bosses, and it's evident in the way they treat me. At no other job are people screamed at for not showing up on days that they weren't scheduled to work. Hell, I'd assume most jobs would tell you if they rewrote your entire schedule. I'd even hope they'd tell you even once out of the four times they've done this to me. But nope.
To quit or not to quit.
do other dairy queens have tip jars?? because my bosses have gotten super mad at us before for accepting tips, they say it's against dq policy, and we have to put any and all extra money in the drawer, whether it's 2 cents or twenty bucks. they threatened to send a girl home once because she was…
they're just being total jerks, we take tips like crazy and nobody says anything.

Manhunt for Pa. survivalist ambusher enters ninth dayPosted: September 22, 2014 in America, Crime, Criminals, Murder, Pennsylvania, Police

CANADENSIS, PA. — Nine days after a gunman opened fire in a deadly ambush at a state police barracks, authorities have had no contact with the suspect they describe as a self-taught survivalist despite an intensive search that shut down the heavily wooded community where he lived with his parents.
Though a shelter-in-place order had been lifted in the Pocono Mountains community where police have focused their search, they continued to urge residents to be vigilant Sunday as the manhunt continues for Eric Frein.
A state police spokesman said no contact had been made with Frein, who was placed on the FBI's Most Wanted list after the Sept. 12 shooting at a nearby police barracks that left one trooper dead and a second wounded.
Police on Friday descended on the community where Frein, 31, had lived with his parents, ordering residents to stay inside their homes and preventing anyone outside the neighborhood from returning to their homes. Law enforcement officers wearing bulletproof vests and armed with rifles scoured the woods as helicopters buzzed overhead.

I understand that the families of those killed by Police shootings are upset. I also understand a parents feelings when their child or young adult is killed when in their their kids are law abiding citizens.
Does that mean when a protest is organized does violence, robbery, destruction, looting need to be a part? Why does a bakery need to be burned 2 miles away that nothing to do with the shooting. Take an innocent bystander gang beaten because his color was the same as the cop?
To assume is to be an ASS people. If the police have to prove we are guilty of a crime then why can't they be treated the same way? Ever think that maybe the police are more aggressive these days is because of the violence and disrespect they face everyday!
Teen told to change out of 'Virginity Rocks' T-shirtPosted: September 18, 2014 in America
Originally posted on WPMT FOX43:
(CNN) — Does the word "virginity" evoke discussions of sexuality or religious belief?
That's the question residents in Fayetteville, Arkansas, are asking after a junior high student was asked by school administrators to change out of a T-shirt that read "Virginity Rocks" last week.
Eighth-grader Chloe Rubiano of Ramay Junior High said she got the tee at a Christian festival last year; on the back, it continues its abstinence message: "I'm loving my Husband and I haven't even Married Him."
"I just really liked this shirt because I was always raised that way," Rubiano told CNN affiliate KFSM. She said she was pulled out of class and given a gym shirt to change into because the message on her shirt "opens up too many doors for conversations" about sexual activity — or lack thereof.
After the incident, Rubiano's mother, Bambi Crozier, took to Facebook to write a lengthy post defending…

Insert index marker elements (structured documents)
Insert an index marker without typing
Place several entries in one marker
Create an index subentry
Create a cross-reference in an index entry
Use page ranges in index entries
Manually create a page range for an index entry
Automatically create page ranges in an index
In a typical index, entries are generated from markers
and are sorted alphabetically. Entries with the same text are merged
into a single entry with several page references. You can add special
building blocks to marker text to control the form of the index
entry—for example, to specify that it's a subentry or a cross-reference
to another entry.
You can also create specialized indexes by using predefined marker
types such as Subject or Author, or by using other marker types
that you create.
where you want to insert the marker or select the word that you
want to include in the Index and click Insert from the Markers pod.
You can insert markers only in text frames.
Choose a marker type from the pop‑up menu. Typically, you'll
use the Index marker type. To create several indexes for a document—for
example, a subject index and an author index—use a different marker
type for each.
Enter the text of the index entry in the Marker pod. You
can enter up to 255 characters (127 Japanese double-byte characters).
You can also use any of the following building blocks in marker
text to control the form of the index entry and its location in
the index.
Building block
: (colon)
Separates levels in an entry
; (semicolon)
Separates entries in a marker
[ ] (brackets)
Specifies a special sort order for the entry
Indicates the beginning of a page range
Indicates the end of a page range
Suppresses the page number in the entry
In a marker that contains several entries,
restores the page number for an entry that follows a <$nopage>
building block
Character tag between angle brackets (<
Changes the character format (for example,
<Default Para Font>
Restores the paragraph's default font
If you're working in Japanese fonts, enter
all these building blocks except the brackets ([ ]) using single-byte
Click New Marker. A marker symbol appears
when text symbols are visible.
Click where you want to insert the marker.
Select a marker element in the Element Catalog and click
You can also use Special > Marker to insert an
element. If more than one marker element is available, choose the
one you want from the Element Tag pop-up menu in the dialog box.
To change the marker type, choose from the Marker Type pop‑up
menu. Changing to another type is not a format rule override, even
if the element has a type preselected.
Consult your developer
before changing a marker type. Your document may have a separate
element defined for each marker type you'll need.
You can
generate an index from the predefined Index, Subject, and Author marker
types. Some custom types may also be available.
Type the text of the index entry. You can enter up to 255
characters (127 Japanese characters). You can also use any of the
following building blocks in marker text to control the form of
the index entry and its location in the index.
: (colon)
; (semicolon)
[ ] (brackets)
Restores the page number for an entry that
follows a <$nopage> building block in a marker that contains
several entries
Click New Marker. If text symbols are showing, a marker symbol appears
in the document window. A bubble for the marker appears in the Structure
View, with a text snippet that shows the beginning of the marker's
If the Attributes for New Element dialog box appears, enter
attribute values for the marker element and click Insert Element.
If no marker element is available at the location you want,
you might use an invalid element. After inserting the element, talk
to your developer about making the element valid at this location.
Insert an empty
marker or marker element (with no text in it) at the beginning of
the word. When you generate the index, the text to the right of
the marker, up to the first space, becomes the text of an entry.
To use text that appears in the document as the marker text,
simply select the text in the document. As long as the selected
word or phrase doesn't contain a marker, it automatically appears
in the Marker Text box.
Marker text
Result in index
Abrasion; Water erosion
Abrasion 10
Water erosion 10
<$nopage>Erosion. See Abrasion;<$singlepage>Abrasion
Erosion. See Abrasion
In the second row of the example, the <$nopage>
building block affects subsequent entries in the marker. To return
to a single page number, <$singlepage> is included with the
next entry in the marker.
You can type any number of spaces
after the semicolon to improve readability. Initial spaces are ignored
when compiling the index unless they're special ones such as nonbreaking
or em spaces. (If you're working in Japanese fonts, only single-byte
space characters are ignored.)
You can group several entries under one entry for a larger
category of information by marking them as subentries. You can also
create subentries to subentries.
Separate the entry from the subentry with a colon (:).
For example, to create the first subentry in the illustration, enter Continental drift:fossil evidence
subentry is always preceded by the entry to which it is subordinate.
If you need two subentry levels, place a colon between the subentry
and the sub-subentry. For example, enter Continental drift:fossil evidence:dating of
Indexes often contain cross-reference entries to direct
readers to related terms. This makes it unnecessary to duplicate
the entries and page numbers for related terms that already appear
in the index.
Cross-references can also appear as subentries (usually preceded
with See also, as in the illustration). You can sort subentries
so that they appear at the top or bottom of the list under the same
main entry.
Insert a marker and use <$nopage> at the beginning
of the marker text to prevent a page number from appearing with
this entry. For example, to create the first cross-reference in
the illustration, enter <$nopage>Abrasion. See also Sandstone
You can use a page range such as 36–37 to mark information
that spans several pages.
You can create a page range in an entry by manually inserting
two markers to indicate the range, one at the beginning of the range
and the other at the end. You can also have FrameMaker create page
ranges for you automatically whenever the same marker text occurs
on consecutive pages of a document. For example, instead of 3, 4,
5, the entry would automatically appear as a page range (3–5).
Insert an index marker at the beginning of the
information, with <$startrange> at the beginning of the marker
text. For example, to create the first page number in a range, enter <$startrange>Continental drift:fossil evidence
Add an index marker (or marker element, if working with a
structured document) at the end of the information, identical to
the first except that you enter <$endrange> rather than <$startrange>
at the beginning of the marker text. For example, to create the
second page number in a range, enter <$endrange>Continental drift:fossil evidence
If both markers appear on the same page, the page range collapses
to a single page number.
Display the reference page that contains the special
text flow for indexes.
Type the <$autorange> building block at the beginning
of the paragraph whose tag begins with the marker type.
To collapse the entries generated from markers of type Index
into page ranges when possible, edit the paragraph tag IndexIX to
contain the following building blocks: <$autorange><$pagenum>
Add, edit, or delete markers and marker types
Change sort order
Edit special text flow for a list or index

There's only one right way to fry chicken and that's in a skillet, one with a tight-fitting lid. Forget soaking chicken pieces first in milk, buttermilk, lemon juice or vinegar and forget dipping chicken in beaten egg and then coating it with bread, cracker or cereal crumbs. many delicious chicken dishes are made with lots of other seasonings and coatings, but they should not be mistaken for "REAL" FRIED CHICKEN

On the electronic music gold-rush: Live Nation acquires leading EDM promoter, Hard Events
After purchasing the company responsible for UK festival giant Creamfields in May, touring juggernaut Live Nation has just made another big EDM purchase – this time, it's Los Angeles-based company Hard Events.
The New York Times reports that Live Nation, the largest touring company in the world, announced on Tuesday that it has acquired Hard Events, the company behind L.A. festival Hard Summer as well as the Caribbean cruise Holy Ship. This comes a few weeks after media entrepreneur Robert Sillerman declared his intent to buy up $US1 billion in dance-focused acquisitions.

TMZ has obtained a copy of Kim Kardashian's wedding invitation, and it has all the makings of a fancy schmancy affair.
The wedding, which will be held on Saturday, August 20, is strictly black tie.
The ceremony will be held in Montecito, California -- near Oprah's mansion.
Of course, the bash is being thrown by Kris Jenner and her sidekick, Bruce.
Oh yeah, the groom is Kris Humphries.
poor bruce, from icon, to nutless wonder, its pathetic, and makes my sack hurt when i see the crap he goes thru for some of that kardashian tang. I just hope their 14 minutes of fame is up before we start having to watch kardashian kids be aholes also. but you gotta give them credit, never have so many profited from solittle real tallent. it pays to have a nice ass.
pimp Jenner is about to sign a deal wtih E! to have her two youngest get their own spin-off..aimed at teens.
what time?
What's all the rush, at least they have more planning time than they did with the tall one. This will not last past three years, and that depends on children and his status with his professional ball team.
Am surprised the wedding is even takeing place,I give the marrage 1 year if that
I feel this guy is out to make a name for himself
marry kim. look all ofa sudeden he is a magazine covers and doing photo shoots
good luck
I am really bummed that the wedding will be in my home town of Santa Barbara. All the locals are so low key we don't like to fuss over celebrities. Our town is real and down to earth. I fear the paps and stalkers will be a pain in the butt. We have ONE freeway so it may be a disaster for all the regular folks trying to go about their business. Pease and love
Are you sure this is the real invitation? It seems so plain and its beyond rude not to include his parents name even if they aren't alive AND Bruce's name should be first. I could print something like this off my computer!
My invitations were far nicer than these. If these are the real deal, she was ripped off. I hope they are fakes. Where are his parents names? Why isn't his full name spelled out. Seems like cheap, Wal-Mart print yourself invitations to me. Seriously...low rent...but then again, look who is getting "married". The Queen of Low Rent!
come on people, give the girl a break, sometimes loves happens very fast, and last a life time, her sister is still married, and happy, so lighten up, and wish them the best of luck.
Im so FU*#ING sick of hearing about her stupid ass life ..... The only thing remotely interesting about the name Kardashian was her sex tape !!!
Darn I have to work won't be there. Like who cares go away.
I bet this marrige lasts from 6 months to a year tops.
Yes they left out her deceased father's name. No biggie...she can put it on the next wedding invitations.
WHAT wedding SHOULD allow T-shirts and jeans??? (Even hillbillies would acknowledge THAT as a sort of, kind of SPECIAL OCCASION!!!! ) TMZ, are you for real?? LOL
Where are Krisstopher's parents name? If his parents are still alive, and they didn't include his mother or father's name on the invitation, THIS SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING!!! It already does to me! Oh well, let the blind, lead the blind!!

Unlikely race
"Spirit of the classics"
Inside the Cadillac Ciel Concept, the cabin features Italian Olive wood, machined aluminum and all the leather you'd expect in a car of this class. A "floating" center console runs from the instrument panel to the rear of the interior. There are hidden connectivity ports for each passenger, though some of the best bits of concept car frivolity are saved for rear occupants.

The way an Infiniti SUV should look
Infiniti tells us the design language for the Infiniti JX Concept comes from the Infiniti Essence concept and it's a language we understand. The grille certainly says Infiniti and we particularly like the shape of the greenhouse.

In 2013, Emilio Bonifacio benefited from a new start. After hitting just .218 through 94 games in Toronto, he was traded to the Kansas City Royals.
During his time in Kansas City, he played in 42 games while hitting .285 and stealing 16 bases- four more than the 12 he stole in Toronto in more than twice the time. He became the everyday- starter for the Royals, who lacked a real second baseman. Had he kept up the pace for a full season in Kansas City, it could have gone down as the best season of his 7-year career, and very acceptable numbers for a starting position.
The only problem; Bonifacio holds a .262 career average with only 10 total home runs. Those numbers do not cut it for a Major League starting player. However, with Bonifacio's speed and average-to-above-average defense, he becomes a suitable player for a utility role.
He has experience at second base (mostly), but also in the outfield.
With the off-season addition of Omar Infante, Bonifacio will see his role with the Royals dramatically decrease during the 2014 season. He will probably start less than 30 games (barring an Infante or outfield injury, *knock on wood*). Ned Yost will also utilize Bonifacio's speed as a late inning pinch-runner after Jarrod Dyson has already been used.
Bonifacio's play could greatly impact the Royals' success in 2014. Perhaps not as much as it did in 2013, but if he can come into a game in the late innings and become a play-maker instantly, it will help tremendously.
However, he is fairly expensive for a utility player. He earned $2.6 million in 2013 with the Royals, which was a great deal for the level of success he provided for the Royals as an everyday starter.
On Friday, the Royals avoided arbitration with Bonifacio by agreeing to pay him $3.5 million. That is pretty good pay for a super utility player, regardless of how many positions he can play.
The Royals may decide to try to trade Emilio Bonifacio to alleviate some payroll issues. They have Pedro Ciriaco on their 40-man roster, who could turn out to be a very similar player to Bonifacio. While he has some value, Kansas City probably won't get much in return for him, but Bonifacio could be a nice piece of a bigger deal.
Even if the Royals keep him, Bonifacio is skilled enough to be valuable super utility guy and pinch runner. Yost likes to use his bench in late game situations, so Bonifacio will see plenty of action.
Having this kind of quality depth is a luxury the Royals have seldom had over the years. Enjoy it.
