But every community had its taber- nacle, a place in pre-aircondi- tioning days for worshippers to gather in some comfort for the summer revival of Christian faith. The tabernacle was a wooden skeleton with wooden benches, all turned a weather gray. A part of one side was walled to protect the piano from a blow- ing rain which might come in revival season, those hot weeks between the end of grain harvest and the beginning of cotton-pick- ing- The floor was a layer of sweet- smelling .straw laid to keep down dust raised by feet made restless with too many words from the visiting preacher. On delightful occasions a puff of wind would come at just the right moment to fill the soloist's open mouth with hay and dirt. The congregation was lighted with electric bulbs which dan- gled naked from the rafters. You left islands of vacant seats un- der the lights because they drew bugs. Even so, there was a post- service ritual at home, floating insects out of ears with warm olive oil. The worship was meaningful, the Christian experiences won- derful. But extra-curricula hap- penings sometimes spiced taber- nacle proceedings. An old preacher tells of a re- vival he held at the old Haskcll tabernacle. The pastor had told him about a fellow, a good man, but a cusser. If he ever showed up, the pastor asked, get in a few words against taking the name of the Lord in vain. The fellow showed up one night, the preacher got the cue and he worked in some words on blasphemy. He worked in a lot of words on the subject. After the service the Cusser came charging down the aisle, hand made into a fisl. The preacher hid behind the pulpit for the Cusser looked 10 feet tall. The Cusser came on, thrust out his fist, opened the fingers and dropped into the preacher's hand a five-dollar bill. "Best blankely-blank sermon 1 ever heard." he cussed. Dr. W. 0. 'Bill' Beazley, Har- din-Simmons official, was one time leading music at a taber- nacle revival. The preacher was a hard worker who preached to everybody, in front of him and behind him. The fellow was preaching away one night on Pilate's "trial" of Christ. "And what Pilate the preacher de- manded, looking about. He turned all the way around to the choir and boomed the answer, "Go get me a pan of He was looking right at Bill. And, obediently, Bill started to rise.

It was in the days of the wagon and the locale of the brush arbor. When the babies had been watered from jar and lulled to sleep by the preacher, parents deposited them in the wagons nearby to clecp it out. One night as the worshippers worshipped some teenage boys were busy. They moved the ba- bies, this wagon to that. After church everybody went home and in every home possessed of a baby frantic cries rent the air: "That's not "Where's my So everybody hitched up teams, climbed in wagons and alarted taking the "wrong" ba- bies to the right house.

This would mean that the win- ning party could form a workable government only with the cooper- ation of the Social Credit party, which scored strong gains in Que- bec Province at the expense of both the Conservatives and Lib- erals. A new election probably will be held within a year With only 27 western districts undecided, the Conservatives had won 106 of the 265 seats in the House, the Liberals had ,89. the Social Credit party 27 and the New Democratic party 15. One Ontario seat will be filled at a special election in July. A candidate for it died during the campaign. A total of 133 seats are needed to form a government without the cooperation of other parties. It is customary for the governor general to ask the party winning the most seats in Commons to form a government. This is not mandatory, however. It depends upon which leader is able to work out Hie best arrangement with one or more oi the other parties. In 1957 Diefenbaker formed a minority government and ruled for nine months until the Conserv- atives won their sweep in a new election the following year. Since the Social Credit party is a right-wing group, il would ap- pear natural for Diefenbaker to seek its cooperation. On Ihe oth- hand, if the Liberals were called upon to form a government they probably could count upon the Socialist New Democratic party. During the campaign, the Social Credit party dwelt heavily on the idea of a national dividend to paid with money printed "to equate money supply with national production." Prime Minister Diefenbaker won a personal victory in Prince Al- bert, Sask., which the 67-year-old Conservative leader had repre- sented in Commons since 1953. Most of his Cabinet also came back in. Liberal leader Lester B. Pear- son also Was returned from his Algoma East District of Ontario. But the leader of the New Demo- cratic parly, T. C. Douglas, was beaten in his bid to unseat a Con- servative in Regina, Sask. TO BE NEW LEVINE'S STORE retailer will double downtown space Levine's Leases Kress Building WEATHER V.

White Sox icon Konerko gives Yankees icon Jeter farewell presents
BY TONI GINNETTI For Sun-Times Media May 25, 2014 10:43PM
CHICAGO, IL - MAY 25: Derek Jeter #2 of the New York Yankees chats with Paul Konerko #14 of the Chicago White Sox during a pre-game ceremony honoring Jeter at U.S. Cellular Field on May 25, 2014 in Chicago, Illinois. Both players will retire at the end of the season. (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images) ORG XMIT: 477583711
One retiring icon presented farewell gifts to another retiring icon Sunday at U.S. Cellular Field.
But there was as much meaning in Paul Konerko doing the honors for Derek Jeter as in the gifts bestowed.
''The thing that's the same about them is that throughout baseball they have similar respect from opposing players,'' Sox manager Robin Ventura said.
He played with Jeter on the Yankees in 2002 and 2003 and is in his third year of managing Konerko.
''[People] respect the way they go about their business when they play and being there every day,'' Ventura said. ''They're pretty much every-day guys for most of their careers.''
The Sox played a video tribute to Jeter during the pregame ceremony. Then Konerko took the field, and the two embraced, and Jeter was given three gifts: a personalized bat bench made by former Sox slugger Ron Kittle constructed with bats representing past Yankees greats, a glass encasement of dirt from the shortstop position at the ballpark with the names of each Hall of Fame shortstop who has played there (Jeter's name was included at the bottom) and a $5,000 check to Jeter's charity, the Turn 2 Foundation.
Jeter then played his best game of the season, getting four hits — including a triple — scoring a run and driving in two.
It was his first four-hit game since Aug. 20, 2012, when he also did it against the Sox on the South Side.
"The fans have been great,'' Jeter said afterward. ''I've always enjoyed coming to Chicago and playing here. I haven't played in Wrigley too much, but every year playing here, it's one of my favorite cities. The way the fans have treated me here in these two series, it's been tremendous. It's something I'll always remember.
''You want them to remember that you were respectful, to your teammates, the fans, opponents. I like being remembered as a Yankee. That's enough for me."
Jeter's farewell has drawn national attention. He has had standing ovations at every road stop.
Konerko, who will go down in Sox history as one of the franchise's greatest hitters, won't be feted the same way.
But he ranks high in Jeter's eyes.
''Paulie is a great guy,'' Jeter said. ''He's a guy who's had a lot of success and plays the game the right way. I've enjoyed getting to know him over the years. He's someone you always remember, and it has just as much to do with the person as with the player.''
Konerko (16 seasons) and Jeter (20) are the longest-tenured players on their teams. Both are captains for similar reasons, Ventura said.
''I think playing with Derek and having Paul here, it's just the dependability of them every day and that they're [giving] the best they've got. You always know that's gonna be there.''
Jeter's numbers will get him into the Hall of Fame. Konerko will have a more challenging road to Cooperstown, though he ranks 43rd all-time in home runs and is second on the Sox in homers and RBI to Hall of Famer Frank Thomas.
''Paulie is more of a power hitter than Derek,'' Ventura said. ''That would be a difference. And they played different positions.''
But Jeter and Konerko are equal in character, he said.
''They play different positions,'' Ventura said, ''but both are still important pieces to their teams.''

Howard Jarvis Taxpayer's Association Calls Out Mother Lode Taxpayers Association as a Phony to Dupe voters
Jon Coupal, HJTA, May 23, 2012Jon Coupal, President of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer's Association will be holding a press to warn 5th Assembly District voters about a phony "taxpayer organization" set up to dupe voters in the June, 5 primary.

Score distribution:
Positive: 0 out of 5

Negative: 3 out of 5
The result is sometimes strained, but often fresh and funny. And the sequence in which the entire cast sings "Avenues and Alleyways," bombastic '70s crooner Tony Christie's lush ode to thug life, is worth the price of admission in itself.
It's never a good thing to notice that the actors in a movie are having a better time than you are. It's so unfair. They're paid to work, you're paying for fun.
To describe Love, Honor and Obey as a cross between "Duets" and "Snatch" doesn't begin to suggest how desperately unfunny this musical gangster comedy is.
Superhumanly awful BBC bottom-feeder Love, Honour and Obey, which, paramount among its many faults, is not recognizably a film.

Florida Neighborhood Watch vs Guardian Angels
The Boston Herald this morning said, "George Zimmerman, the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who fired the shot that claimed the life of Trayvon Martin on a rainy night in Sanford, Fla., last month, has been painted as a racist, a vigilante and a murderer."
As Guardian Angels, we are very proactive, with a hands-on crime deterrence action. How are we different from Zimmerman on Neighborhood Watch in Florida?
It's important to know that our words, actions, gestures … anything we do is probably recorded somewhere these days. Traffic cameras, home surveillance systems, recorded phone calls (especially to emergency services like 911 in the United States) – every detail matters. And, everything really does get brought into question:
That July, Zimmerman — 21 at the time — was at a bar near the University of Central Florida when a friend was arrested by state alcohol agents on suspicion of serving underage drinkers, according to an arrest report."
"A month later, court records show, a woman filed a petition for an injunction against Zimmerman, citing domestic violence."
Even the "good citizen" stuff can (and obviously will) be brought out in an awkward angle:
"Zimmerman expressed an interest in law enforcement when he applied to the Seminole County Sheriff's Office citizens' law-enforcement academy in 2008, and has demonstrated that, although he's not a cop, he is willing to take action that resembles policing."
No Weapons, Thank You
There are Guardian Angels chapters all around the world. There is huge divergence in the legal ownership and carrying of self defense tools and weapons in all these different communities. Even within the USA, the differences are dramatic. I grew up in Boston, and now live in Los Angeles. In Boston, it's relatively easy to obtain a license to carry a concealed, loaded handgun … but pepper spray and Tasers are not even legal to own. On the other hand, in Los Angeles, it's nearly impossible for an average person to get a concealed carry permit, but both pepper spray and tasers are legal and easily accessible.
You can imagine that all these different laws could cause great problems for the Guardian Angels … but fortunately, our founder Curtis Sliwa decided early on that we would never carry anything that could be confused for being a weapon. This makes it much easier for you to avoid this kind of legal confusion on a patrol with us. In fact, as demonstrated in a prior post involving a conversation with police about pepper spray, carrying any kind of weapon makes it much more likely that you'll use it.
If Zimmerman on his Neighborhood Watch in Florida had simply been walking in the neighborhood without his weapon, he obviously wouldn't have used it to shoot young Trayvon in February. It's a little less obvious, but data shows that Zimmerman would probably have acted more professionally, without the false bravado and intimidation that comes from carrying that weapon. A little planning, and a lot more Guardian Angels style behavior, would have made a huge difference for that neighborhood, and a life-saving difference for young Trayvon.
Stand Your Ground Laws
Of course, this is even further complicated by the subtle differences in self-defense laws around the world. In Florida (and other places) there is no requirement for "Preclusion" in an act of self-defense. You can defend yourself against a threat you merely think is going to happen. This is often called the, "stand your ground law." Now, that might seem absurd to some … but if you've spent much time around violence, you pretty well know when something is about to get violent – even before it happens. That doesn't mean it's acceptable to use unreasonable, or excessive force to accomplish that defense.
It is always important to show (regardless of preclusion related law) that any amount of force used in self-defense was the minimum amount of force needed to regain safety. In the Zimmerman case, he used lethal force against a younger person with no weapon. That doesn't automatically make it excessive force (my grandmother would need a gun to equalize the threat from an unarmed football linebacker, for example). But it sure doesn't make for pleasant news coverage, either.
Get to know your local laws, and think through your actions now, with lots and lots of imaginary scenarios. At least you'll have some idea of what makes sense in your own mind that way. Violence is confusing enough on its own; you may as well get your own ideas at least partially straightened out before diving into the wild world of violence.

I am entertaining an answer to the New Black Panther Party called the White Tiger Party. We will wear a white beret,and tee shirt with a White tiger logo ,with bloused pants and boots.Wanted are volunteers,prefer body builders, security,self defense types but anyone is encouraged to participate.This is not to be a racist, hate group or militia.But an answer to the new Black Panther Party. No display of weapons nor threats of violence will be tolerated. W e will only show our peaceful presence at places where white intimidation is taking place I.E. the George Zimmerman case,polling places.We will also protest and bring attention to killing and injustices to white people.We are also in need of financial and organizational support to cover costs to travel and lodging if needed. Please contact me @jimsur1218@hotmail,com
" It's a little less obvious, but data shows that Zimmerman would probably have acted more professionally, without the false bravado and intimidation that comes from carrying that weapon. "
There is no evidence that Zimmerman displayed any bravado or intimidation. His weapon was concealed, and there was no way it could have intimidated anyone because they wouldn't know about it.
But of course you guys don't feel the need to carry weapons, considering your organization's history of staged rescues.
This section quoted here doesn't talk about Zimmerman's actions; it talks about general data. Specifically, carrying a weapon tends to increase the tendency for actions of bravado and intimidation." I apologize for the confusion it may have caused.
Regarding the rest of the comment: please let's be professional here. Thank you for understanding.
The truth is police 911 audio tapes recorded Zimmerman screaming for help. Witnesses reported that approached Zimmerman and attacked him. Zimmerman shot Trayvon in self defense. He had a legal right to carry that gun. Zimmerman should never have been arrested Florida officials should never have buckled.
"The truth" isn't something I know in this case, nor is it discussed in the article.
Here, I'm taking a look at why good behavior and good reputations matter so much, and how sometimes reports of our past behaviors sometimes give people different impressions of our actions in the present.

For the last 20 years, the Utah Commission on Service and Volunteerism has worked to enable individuals, communities and organizations in Utah to benefit from the service, power, skills, and passion of volunteers. For the last eight years, Utah has ranked # 1 for volunteerism in the nation.
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Utah Commission on Service and Volunteerism Governor Gary Herbert signed a declaration making 2014 a year of service in Utah. The declaration recognizes that community engagement improves the quality of life of residents and that volunteerism contributes significantly to our state's economic growth and prosperity.
UServeUtah celebrates 20 years of exceptional service, strengthening Utah communities through the POWER of service and volunteerism. Each year in Utah 970,000 Utahns volunteer 165 million hours which is an econmic impact of $3 Billion dollars. There were 1,125 AmeriCorps members serving in Utah in 2013. These members served 721,242 hours. AmeriCorps is a $9,069,230 annual public-private investment in Utah's economy.
Through this year of service we will focus our outreach on seven major areas of volunteerism and National Service (March-May: healthy futures, June-August: environmental stewardship , veteran and military families , September-October: education, disaster services , November-December: economic opportunity, and family volunteering). In each of these focus areas we will highlight the great work being done by volunteers statewide and hope to inspire more citizens to volunteer in their communities.
