Functions for Calculating Descriptive Statistics
If you need more advanced statistics features, you might want to use the Statistics Toolbox™ software.
Use the following MATLAB® functions to calculate the descriptive statistics for your data.
Statistics Function Summary
Maximum value
Average or mean value
Median value
Smallest value
Most frequent value
Standard deviation
Variance, which measures the spread or dispersion of the values
The following examples apply MATLAB functions to calculate descriptive statistics:
This example shows how to use MATLAB functions to calculate the maximum, mean, and standard deviation values for a 24-by-3 matrix called count. MATLAB computes these statistics independently for each column in the matrix.
% Load the sample data load count.dat % Find the maximum value in each column mx = max(count) % Calculate the mean of each column mu = mean(count) % Calculate the standard deviation of each column sigma = std(count)
The results are
mx = 114 145 257 mu = 32.0000 46.5417 65.5833 sigma = 25.3703 41.4057 68.0281
To get the row numbers where the maximum data values occur in each data column, specify a second output parameter indx to return the row index. For example:
[mx,indx] = max(count)
These results are
mx = 114 145 257 indx = 20 20 20
Here, the variable mx is a row vector that contains the maximum value in each of the three data columns. The variable indx contains the row indices in each column that correspond to the maximum values.
To find the minimum value in the entire count matrix, reshape this 24-by-3 matrix into a 72-by-1 column vector by using the syntax count(:). Then, to find the minimum value in the single column, use the following syntax:
min(count(:)) ans = 7
Subtract the mean from each column of the matrix by using the following syntax:
% Get the size of the count matrix [n,p] = size(count) % Compute the mean of each column mu = mean(count) % Create a matrix of mean values by % replicating the mu vector for n rows MeanMat = repmat(mu,n,1) % Subtract the column mean from each element % in that column x = count - MeanMat
Note: Subtracting the mean from the data is also called detrending. For more information about removing the mean or the best-fit line from the data, see Detrending Data.
The Data Statistics dialog box helps you calculate and plot descriptive statistics with the data. This example shows how to use MATLAB Data Statistics to calculate and plot statistics for a 24-by-3 matrix, called count. The data represents how many vehicles passed by traffic counting stations on three streets.
This section contains the following topics:
Load and plot the data:
load count.dat [n,p] = size(count); % Define the x-values t = 1:n; % Plot the data and annotate the graph plot(t,count) legend('Station 1','Station 2','Station 3','Location','northwest') xlabel('Time') ylabel('Vehicle Count')
Note: The legend contains the name of each data set, as specified by the legend function: Station 1, Station 2, and Station 3. A data set refers to each column of data in the array you plotted. If you do not name the data sets, default names are assigned: data1, data2, and so on.
In the Figure window, select Tools > Data Statistics .
The Data Statistics dialog box opens and displays descriptive statistics for the X- and Y-data of the Station 1 data set.
Select a different data set in the Statistics for list: Station 2.
This displays the statistics for the X and Y data of the Station 2 data set.
Select the check box for each statistic you want to display on the plot, and then click Save to workspace.
For example, to plot the mean of Station 2, select the mean check box in the Y column.
This plots a horizontal line to represent the mean of Station 2 and updates the legend to include this statistic.
The Data Statistics GUI uses colors and line styles to distinguish statistics from the data on the plot. This portion of the example shows how to customize the display of descriptive statistics on a plot, such as the color, line width, line style, or marker.
Note: Do not edit display properties of statistics until you finish plotting all the statistics with the data. If you add or remove statistics after editing plot properties, the changes to plot properties are lost.
To modify the display of data statistics on a plot:
In the MATLAB Figure window, click the (Edit Plot) button in the toolbar.
This step enables plot editing.
Double-click the statistic on the plot for which you want to edit display properties. For example, double-click the horizontal line representing the mean of Station 2.
This step opens the Property Editor below the MATLAB Figure window, where you can modify the appearance of the line used to represent this statistic.
In the Property Editor, specify the Line and Marker styles, sizes, and colors.
This portion of the example shows how to save statistics in the Data Statistics GUI to the MATLAB workspace.
Note: When your plot contains multiple data sets, save statistics for each data set individually. To display statistics for a different data set, select it from the Statistics for list in the Data Statistics GUI.
In the Data Statistics dialog box, click the Save to workspace button.
In the Save Statistics to Workspace dialog box, select options to save statistics for either X data, Y data, or both. Then, enter the corresponding variable names.
In this example, save only the Y data. Enter the variable name as Loc2countstats.
Click OK.
This step saves the descriptive statistics to a structure. The new variable is added to the MATLAB workspace.
To view the new structure variable, type the variable name at the MATLAB prompt:
Loc2countstats = min: 9 max: 145 mean: 46.5417 median: 36 mode: 9 std: 41.4057 range: 136
This portion of the example shows how to generate a file containing MATLAB code that reproduces the format of the plot and the plotted statistics with new data.
In the Figure window, select File > Generate Code.
This step creates a function code file and displays it in the MATLAB Editor. The code can programmatically reproduce what you did interactively with the Data Statistics GUI and the Property Editor.
Change the name of the function on the first line of the file from createfigure to something more specific, like countplot. Save the file to your current folder with the file name countplot.m.
Generate some new, random count data:
randcount = 300*rand(24,3);
Reproduce the plot with the new data and the recomputed statistics:

Conn Smythe Nomination: ECF Game #1
Blogger: Vance
In standard quote template #6, Crosby had this to say, "We didn't get the start we wanted. They got some quality chances early on. Usually when you are at home, you're not talking about weathering the storm, but he did that for us tonight." Now I know this is nitpicking, but Sydney (spelled incorrectly on purpose), holding a 2-0 lead 10 minutes into the game is usually, usually, a pretty good start. I'm not sayin', I'm just saying.
Honorable mentions to the benched brothers, Miroslav Satan and Phillipe Boucher for making the most of their minutes, and Chad LaRose for giving a damn for 60 minutes instead of the rest of the Canes, who only cared for about 15.

Trice Edney Newswire
Despite historic profiling and brutality of Blacks in America, the "not guilty" verdict of Trayvon Martin's killer, George Zimmerman, continues to stun millions this week as Black leaders vow to seek justice.
Black Americans, joined by significant numbers of whites, have taken to the streets, social media and even the pulpit for comfort after witnessing a smiling Zimmerman shake hands with his attorneys, embrace his wife and parents in the courtroom and walk free. The shooting death of the unarmed teenager walking through his neighborhood with a can of iced tea and a bag of Skittles will no doubt be documented among America's greatest racial tragedies of the 21st century.
"Trayvon Martin was not on trial, but after being killed on Feb. 26 (2012) by George Zimmerman, was strangled again in the trial of Zimmerman," said Harvard Law Professor Charles Ogletree. "We won't forget Trayvon, his birthday or the day that he was killed … Trayvon Martin will be a legacy like Emmett Till. This tragic event will go down in history as an unforgivable death of an unarmed Black child."
Martin's father, Tracy Martin, and mother, Sybrina Fulton, were in the courtroom most of the time, but on the night of the verdict, they were both absent. Early Monday, they both issued statements.
Sybrina Fulton said, "Dear Lord, during my darkest hour, I lean on you. You are all that I have."
Tracy Martin said, "Even though I am brokenhearted, my faith is unshattered. I will always love my baby, Tray."
Meanwhile, the NAACP, meeting in Orlando this week, has placed its hopes into possible federal charges against Zimmerman by the U.S. Department of Justice for allegedly violating Martin's civil rights. The Justice Department is already investigating.
"Today, justice failed Trayvon Martin and his family," said NAACP Chair Roslyn M. Brock in a statement. "We call immediately for the Justice Department to conduct an investigation into the civil rights violations committed against Trayvon Martin. This case has reenergized the movement to end racial profiling in the United States."
NAACP President/CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous said, "We will pursue civil rights charges with the Department of Justice, we will continue to fight for the removal of Stand Your Ground laws in every state, and we will not rest until racial profiling in all its forms is outlawed."
Responding to the threat of a Justice Department charge, defense attorney Mark O'Mara told CNN, "We will seek and we will get immunity from a civil hearing." Florida's Stand Your Ground self-defense law reportedly allows defendants protection against lawsuits; therefore, O'Mara says he will fight for protection under that law.
The NAACP's statements were among a string of reactions from civil rights organizations following the announcement of the "not guilty" verdict by a jury of six women, who deliberated 15 hours before returning their decision in the late night of July 13.
The verdict followed nearly three weeks of riveting court testimony that included 56 witnesses and a piecing together of the details of the struggle that ensued after Zimmerman followed the 17-year-old Martin, telling a 911 operator that he was suspicious and asserted: "F–king punks … They always get away."
Millions watched the trial and the verdict on live television. The following morning, many pastors took to their pulpits, compelled to address the hurt and confusion that spilled over into coast to coast protests this week.
"This is a sobering wakeup call, as I shared with my congregation," said the Rev. Jamal-Harrison Bryant, pastor of Baltimore's Empowerment Temple and former NAACP youth director, in an interview. "This generation really hadn't been confronted with racism in an overt way. Everything that the hip hop generation really knows about racism has been from footage and from books. We weren't there for Emmett Till or for Medgar Evers, so the killing of Trayvon is really a wakeup call that it is really our time to take the baton."
Bishop Noel Jones of the City of Refuge near Los Angeles reminded, "We had to protest to get them to arrest the fellow." Zimmerman was initially interviewed by police Feb. 26, 2012, and walked free for 44 days until Martin's parents contacted national civil rights leaders Revs. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. After they held a march in Sanford, Fla., Zimmerman was arrested.
Even President Obama, who once said if he had a son, "he'd look like Trayvon," weighed in, pleading for peace.
"The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family or for any one community, but for America," the president said in a statement. "I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken.
"I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son. And as we do, we should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that's a job for all of us. That's the way to honor Trayvon Martin."
Many expected the jury of mostly mothers to respond with sensitivity to the killing of an unarmed teenager. But, Jones said, "Those same women have to live with the men who have guns all over the place … So, they're not seeing a son dying, they're seeing a husband convicted for having shot another Black man."
Five of the six women were white. One woman was reportedly a Black Latina. The members of the jury remained publicly anonymous in days following the verdict. Zimmerman, 29, is the son of a white father and Latina mother. Part of the racial strife is because Martin was apparently profiled because of his race and the fact that he was wearing a hoodie.
For many, the most memorable testimony will be that of Martin's friend Rachel Jeantel, who was on the phone with Martin when he noticed Zimmerman following him. Jeantel, 19, of Miami, spent two days on the stand giving her testimony of the encounter. She quoted Martin as saying that a "creepy a– cracker" was following him as he walked through the neighborhood.
Before his phone went dead, she quoted him as asking, "What are you following me for?" and then yelling, "Get off! Get off!"
Amidst foggy and often conflicting testimonies about who actually threw the first blow or initiated the first physical contact, one thing remains clear: The pursuit of justice for Trayvon Martin is far from over.
"Trayvon Martin's father did what any father would do to save his son: send him to a place out of harm's way — a gated community in suburban Sanford, Fla.," said Ogletree, also founder and executive director of the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute for Race and Justice at Harvard Law School. "I have spent my career as a defense lawyer, but the death of this Black boy makes me wonder whether we will ever end racial profiling.
"As long as we talk about racial profiling in America and beyond, we will always remember what happened to Trayvon Martin."

Mechanistic bases for age-related androgen deficiency
Principal Investigator: Johannes Veldhuis
Affiliation: Mayo Clinic
Country: USA
Abstract: Aging in men results in progressive impoverishment of systemic androgen availability. Epidemiological data establish a close association between hypoandrogenemia and sarcopenia, osteopenia, visceral adiposity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, reduced quality of life and institutionalization. However, the precise mechanistic bases of reduced testosterone production in the older male are not known. The present proposal is predicated on the thesis that the male gonadal axis is regulated via reciprocal interactions among all three of GnRH, LH and testosterone. Interpreted from this vantage and compelling preliminary data, we postulate that the primary mechanisms of aging-related testosterone depletion include the following: HYPOTHESIS I: Restricted hypothalamic GnRH drive, which reduces the mass of LH contained in pulses. HYPOTHESIS II: Impaired Leydig-cell steroidogenesis, which enforces systemic hypoandrogenemia. HYPOTHESIS III: Reduced negative feedback by testosterone, which unleashes high-frequency, low- amplitude and irregular LH release. The immediate objective is to elucidate the relative timing, importance and prevalence of the foregoing putative regulatory deficits in the same 40 individuals as a function of age within the continuum 18-80 yr. These data will drive formulation of an R01 to investigate age-related adaptations in the gonadal axis longitudinally. The long-term goal is to stimulate novel insights into mechanistically selective preventive strategies to preserve anabolic support and enhance quality of life, physical and cognitive function and capable independent activities of older citizens. PUBLIC PRECIS. Studies focus on what causes low sex-hormone levels in older men. Low testosterone is important, because it predicts relative physical frailty (thin bones, reduced muscle strength and stamina), less life satisfaction, greater abdominal fat gain and increased cardiovascular risk. Knowing why testosterone falls should help foster new and safer ways to prevent the problem.

Marriott just officially announced today that starting June 22, Gold and Platinum elites will receive complimentary continental breakfast seven days a week at participating JW Marriott, Autograph Collection , Renaissance and Marriott Hotels in the U.S. and Canada. In the past, breakfast at hotels in the U.S. and Canada was only available during the week, but globally the weekend breakfast was included.
Platinum Elite members will also "enjoy a new flexibility with their Platinum Arrival Gift: Soon you can choose 500 points or a $10 food and beverage coupon to be used during your stay, with our compliments." Additionally, any time the lounge is closed, Gold and Platinum elites will have a choice of continental breakfast for two in the hotels' restaurant or 750 points. Though this is definitely an enhancement it is not game changer in my opinion.
The Catch
I always shudder at the "participating" hotel language in hotel promotions and announcements. Sadly, in this case, all of Marriott's lower-tier hotels, like Courtyard by Marriott and Springhill Suites, are excluded from this.
Additionally, resorts are also excluded, so don't think you're entitled to this benefit at any of their 34 resorts in Florida for example, though some may still give the benefit as a courtesy.
Why I've Never Been a Marriott Buff
Growing up my Dad was a big Marriott fan and I remember staying at the Marriott Marquis Time Square every summer on award nights and thinking how awesome it was to be able to travel to fancy places for "free". When I first started traveling for business, I assumed I would just follow in Dad's footsteps and stay at Marriotts. However I soon learned that the promotions were always lackluster in comparison to other chains (and this was in the days of Hyatt's Faster Free Nights and Starwood's mega choice promos). I also didn't think that Marriott Gold status benefits (after 50 nights) or Platinum (after 75) were any better than Starwood and Hyatt's top tier-statuses that were achieved after 25 stays or 50 nights. I value suite upgrades, especially on personal vacations, and they aren't even offered as a Marriott Platinum benefit!
However, Marriott does have a huge following and always wins awards at the Freddie Awards. I think they mostly deliver on reliability and consistency, which is valuable for business travelers.
Taking out elite status, promos and credit card bonuses Marriott falls in the middle of the pack when it comes to the amount you need to spend to get a top-tier award night based solely on hotel spend:
Club Carlson: $2,500 for a free night at a top-tier Carlson property like a Radisson Blu (50,000 points earned at 20 points per dollar)
Hyatt: $4,400 for Hyatt (22,000 points at 5 points earned per dollar spent)
Marriott: $4,500 at Marriott (45,000 points at 10 points per dollar spent)
Priority Club: $5,000 at Priority Club (50,000 points at 10 points per dollar spent)
Hilton: $6,333 for a free night at a top-tier Hilton (95,000 points at 15 points earned per dollar spent)
Starwood: $15,000 for a Starwood Category 7 property (30,000 points at 2 points per dollar spent) or $7,775 for Cash & Points for 15,000 points (at 2 points per dollar) plus the $275 copay.
Getting Breakfast-Worthy Elite Status Via Credit Card Spend
Marriott makes it possible to attain top tier status by spending on co-branded credit cards. The Chase Marriott Premier Visa gives 15 elite nights every year and 1 Elite night credit for each $3,000 in net purchases, with no limit. So to get Gold with just spend, you'd need to spend $105,000 and Platinum would require $180,000 in spend! The card has a 50,000-point sign-up bonus plus a free category 1-4 night and gives a category 1-5 every year you keep the card open, so it's a no-brainer for Marriott loyalists since that annual fee night and 15 elite night credits is easily worth the $85 annual fee, which is waived the first year.
Comparatively, the Citi Hilton Reserve gives instant Gold status for just having the card (free breakfast) and Diamond status at $40,000 in annual spend. The card comes with two free weekend nights at almost any Hilton hotel and each year you get an additional free weekend night for spending $10,000, which makes the annual fee of $95 well worth it in my opinion.
Starwood gives Platinum members (25 stays/50 nights) an option of continental breakfast and the Starwood Amex gives 2 stays/5 nights towards elite status and Gold status at $30,000 in annual spend. You can get the business version as well as and start each year off with 4 stays/10 nights towards qualification with both cards. The sign-up bonuses on both cards are currently 10,000 points after first purchase and 15,000 additional points after $5,000 in spend within 6 months. The $65 annual fee is waived the first year.
The Chase Hyatt Visa gives Platinum status for having the card open (no breakfast) 2 stay credits/5 night credits toward Diamond status upon spending $20,000 in each calendar year and an additional 3 stay credits/5 night credits toward Diamond status upon spending $40,000 in each calendar year. The sign-up bonus is 2 free nights and a category 1-4 free night every year, making the $75 annual fee well worth it in my opinion.

Italian food has become standard fare here in America. It seems everywhere you visit you'll find Olive Garden or even a Pizza Hut. But look a little harder and you'll discover establishments serving delicious, authentic, makes-magic-in-your-mouth Italian with recipes passed down from generation to generation. That's exactly what I found during my stay at Flying Flags RV Resort in Buellton, CA.
In fact, I was looking for a celebrity chef to film a show with me. Luckily for all of us, the resort's manager, Dan Baumann, is a bona fide foodie and had just the man for me – Chef Giorgio Curti of the famous Santa Ynez eatery Trattoria Grappolo.
Upon hearing the news I did what every fun-loving RV Cooking Show host would do – planned a party!! But instead of filming in Studio A (our Jayco 5-er) Dan graciously offered a big, beautiful park model cottage. Nice!
In this episode – Gourmet Guests – you'll enjoy the fruits of our labor. Chef Giorgio prepares 3 absolutely amazing dishes for us: a seafood pasta, grilled sliced beef with arugula and a burrata citronella salad. Amazing! And don't shy away, they only sound fancy and complex. Chef Giorgio specializes in easy and elegant. He made these terrific dishes "rustic" in honor of our outdoor lifestyle. Served up with some fine Santa Barbara County wine – Mosby Dolcetto for one – it was a fabulous feast that you don't want to miss out on.
Sure enough, you, too, can create these Italy-inspired recipes in your RV (I do). The ingredients can be found at your local grocery and the results are simply spectacular. Go ahead, print a couple copies of the recipes (one for your rig and one for your stick home) and plan a special occasion meal…especially if the occasion is an RV adventure.

That will not work, everyone will play worse
Posted 14 November 2013 - 09:49 AM
Technically it is a nonsense to compare Pavel Datsyuk with Alex Ovechkin in points (goal + pass).
I think NHL has to find some criteria to measure such palyers as Pavel - currently it does not have it.
Even if Pavel scored a goal in shoutouts and von a game (which he did many times) - he will get 0 points.
But it is much more important to measure what he does for all people who watch the game - he tries to make
a masterpiece each shift, while Alex is just waiting for the moment he will get the puck and shot.
BTW, I like the video (NYR-WAS) - it really shows the difference, Pavel would never do that.
So, my point is: hockey is more than just points.
Datsyuk is one of the best two-way players I've ever seen. This season he actually seems to be skating harder on the backcheck than when we're going up ice.
Whereas Ovechkin literally doesn't understand the nuances and general importance of defensive play. And/Or he's just lazy.
They're both phenomenally gifted hockey players and goal-scorers (and Russian), but comparing them based on point production alone is lame.

If you bench Hank and Pasha, and you depend on people like Cleary, you're going to have a record worse than Edmonton's. Have a little pride, for Pete' sake.

No yesterdays are ever wasted for those who give themselves to today. -Brendan Francis
A big congratulations goes out to my lovely friend and "twin" Kate on the birth of her little girl Grace! I am so proud of you Kate and I wish you all the joy in the world with your new little beauty.
I've been busy sewing up a few things, but unfortunately (and geez, I hate having to keep saying this) I can't share much of it with you guys! Buuuuttttt, I can share a little giftie that I made for a friend's birthday last week.
I made this little clutch using Amy Butler's pattern "Clutch Purse with Antique Pin Closure" which can be found for free on the Better Homes and Gardens website. I used a print from Denyse Schmidt's County Fair line for the outside and a pale yellow solid (very close to the yellow medallions on the outer print) for the interior. As You can see I did not use an antique pin on the closure (which actually fastens with velcro) but rather sewed a large button to the flap.
One of the really neat things about this clutch pattern is that the front closure band actually comes around all the way to the back to form a handle (it is stitched down near the top of the clutch so that the front closure stays snug but the back forms the strap). I think this is a really great design feature because part of the reason that I rarely use clutches is the whole "clutching-all-the-time" aspect; if you have smaller hands and wrists like me you could actually slip this clutch right onto your wrist if you were dancing or doing something where you were worried you'd drop your bag.
The top corners of the clutch also fold in giving it a nice shape and a little room to expand. One of the things that I did differently from the pattern was to omit the interfacing because I was using a home dec weight fabric and the pattern called for quilting weight cotton. I did however still include the canvas between the outer and lining layers; the bag is not quite as stiff as I would have liked, but I think it would have been too stiff with the weight of interfacing called for. If I were to make this using home dec weight fabric again I would include the interfacing but maybe go down to a heavy-weight or medium-weight for a rigid but flexible clutch.
I have some seriously awesome yarn to share with you guys and my haul from Spring Creativ Festival (which my mum and I just went to yesterday), but I think I'll save those for the next post! Hope you're all having a lovely weekend so far - I'm off to work pretty soon!

BREAKING NEWS! – First AME Mansion/Parsonage owes $51,000 in back property taxes! Click HERE
There is SO much happening as we speak, Mo'Kelly wouldn't dare try to make multiple posts. Mo'Kelly will try to keep all of this information in one post as to ensure everybody is on the same "page"…pun intended. The information is coming in fast and furiously.
#1 – Where in the World is Rev. John Hunter?!
Mo'Kelly's received confirmation from independent and unrelated sources that John Hunter is (as of this posting) AWOL. Hunter evidently was NOT in the pulpit this past Sunday (3.29) and hasn't been reachable for the better part of a week. Mo'Kelly would NEVER recklessly speculate, for that isn't his way.
(But Mo'Kelly will say this…)
The only time Mo'Kelly has had friends/grown men "disappear" for an inordinate amount of time was when they were either in rehab, jail, the rubber room or some wicked combination of all three. If the pastor of the church can't be found, it's because he doesn't want to be found and/or doesn't want you to know his exact whereabouts or situation. Whether it's a short "alleged" jail stint, or an emotional/mental breakdown…that's not exactly information an embattled minister wants out in the ether.
Mo'Kelly doesn't want to "speculate"…just relaying what he's seen over the years.

#2 – Mutiny/revolt at Ward AME!
One of Mo'Kelly's sources emailed a copy of a letter requesting full disclosure as to "missing money" and the allocation of recent loan on a church property. Sound familiar?! Anyhow, here is the letter in its entirety. Pastor C. Dennis Williams is in TREMENDOUS trouble…and that's not even MENTIONING the Sylvester Laudermill lawsuit mess…$300,000 of which the church was found liable.
TO: Ward AME Steward Board
FROM: Concerned Members of Ward AME Church
DATE: March 20, 2009
We thank you for your prompt and focused response to our initial writing.
It is imperative we make it clear our purpose is to become aware of the financial condition of Ward and know what has been done and what is being done. One can only deal with the present by clearly understanding the past. Open, complete and friendly discussion of the church's finances and contractual obligations is in order. "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God." Matt.5:9
We have diligently searched throughout the discipline and have been unable to locate the discussion or prescription for presenting a letter such as ours. You have stated in your response: "…we agree to disagree on matters of preference but not on matters of doctrine."
"Contained within this doctrine (Doctrine and Discipline of the AME Church) is a precise manner in which the issues you raised should have been brought to the attention of the church": We ask for section and article specificity.
Your indication of meeting as quickly as possible is well heeded. We desire the same. We would like you to set a date at your earliest convenience to meet with all concerned parties in an effort to resolve the noted concerns.
To that end, we encourage the Stewards and the Commission on Stewardship and Finance to provide us accurate and complete financial reports as required in the aforementioned Discipline under duties of said Stewards regarding ALL expenditures [Discipline , Local Church Organization 1.a.2)d).p.68] and [Discipline, Optional Local Church Organization B.4.a.6)]. As such, the contention of "moving on" and not providing such transparency and clarity with regard to inquiries into the close-out statement for 2007-2008 is a dereliction of the board's fiduciary responsibility as outlined.
Financial Statements
You have referred to monthly financial and quarterly reports on income and expenses. We wish to examine those for the year of 2008. Inquiries at the church office have not satisfied this request; help in this regard would be greatly appreciated. As per the Discipline [Discipline, Optional Local Church Organizations B.4.a.6) pg.82] the Commission on Stewardship and Finance is obligated to produce a monthly report to the Official Board of "all receipts and disbursements and of unpaid obligations against the budget."
The Half Million Loan
Since the church has recently obtained a loan of $500,000, it is appropriate to request a complete and accurate report regarding the disposition of these funds. The statement provided neither outlined the cost of acquiring the loan, the interest rate obtained, nor the amount of the monthly payments. Of interest, the deposit stated as $318 K, and the holdback account at $177 K is $5000 short of the loan amount, yet no reconciliation was notated.
Rental Agreements
RENTAL or LEASE AGREEMENTS of the church's property are to be coordinated and arrived at by consensus and authorization of the Trustee Board who, by the Discipline, has managerial authority over all temporal concerns of the church [Discipline, Local Church Organizations 1.b.5)a.) {As an aside, this section is where the Discipline outlines that the Trustee Board, indeed, have an elected treasurer, as Bro. Brand contended to Pastor Williams at Official Board}.
Conditions of any lease and rental contracts and compliance to contractual requirements should be available upon request. We note that all leases or contracts are to be negotiated by the Trustee Board then ratified by the Official Board and/or the church conference. [Discipline general church property C. mortgaging property, p. 58, Discipline Local Church Organization, b. Trustees, 5, 6, Duties of Trustees C) p. 70]. Neither the Pastor nor any other persons has the authority to solely negotiate terms or obligations of leasing contracts.
A reduction of 44% in the official budget for 2008-2009 actually translates to expectation that Ward will produce 44% less revenue this year [Discipline, Local Church Organization A.1.a.2)b)( "The salary of a FULL TIME* pastor…ability of the local congregation.") pg. 68].
Has a comparison of actual expenditures against the current budget been made to 2007-2008 budget? "The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty, but those of everyone who is hasty surely to poverty." Proverbs 21:5
To that end, it is folly to contend that the Pastoral compensation package can not be revisited. Downsizing and fiscal realities are taking place throughout the economic landscape, and the expenditures of Ward's Administration compensation accounts for approximately 42% of the revenue stream of Ward AME Church. No prudently managed business can survive with that kind of balance sheet: remember (Discipline pg. 42) "A steward is one to whom an important trust has been committed. We hold that time, talents, and treasure are gifts of God committed to us and the use to which we put these determines whether we are good and faithful stewards or careless and unprofitable ones (Matthew 25:14-30)."
In our current financial malaise, Ward members are being asked to make Herculean sacrifices: clear and evident leadership by example speaks volumes.
Bank Accounts
As per the aforementioned sections and articles, the mandate of the Steward Board and the Commission on Stewardship and Finance is to make coherent, concise, transparent and accurate reports of ALL expenditures and revenue. Lumping numbers together to obscure or confound is not within the Discipline nor the Master's will (God is not the author of confusion).
With respect to the pastor's discretionary checking account, the specific authorization of such is not within the Discipline's detailing of the establishment of a Central Budget Fund [Discipline, Optional Local Church Organization, B.4.b.2) pg. 83].
Even viewed expansively as to consider the account to fall under a) b) or n), there is no ambiguity concerning the criteria for the Steward Board to provide "accurate reports of EVERY expenditure of money, whether to the pastor, church, sick or poor." We request that you identify the discretionary account expenditure(s) in the 2008-2009 budget, detail the amount(s) deposited and reconcile the current balance.
Also, in what name is the discretionary account held? If we learn nothing else from the lawsuit (which implicated Ward's negligence primarily because a credit card held in the name of the church was used privately) it should be to separate the pastor's private financial dealings from that of the church.
Please identify and reference where on the financial reports we can locate the funds held for the renovation of the restrooms in the sanctuary.
A reference is made to the CFO as a signatory on checks. Who is the CFO?
Ward's Obligation
Your reference to Concern #7 can be clarified. As you have indicated, the Discipline should be our guide. Thus, if loans are made, property mortgaged or contracts made, they should be properly negotiated and authorized by the Trustee Board [see previous reference to Discipline pgs. 58 and 70.]
It is also important that we recognize authority of the Trustee Board to "guard for the Connection all real estate, churches, parsonages, schools, and any other property obtained by the local church" [Discipline, Local Church Organizations b.5) b) pg.70]. This places their responsibility beyond the local church, and they must prudently execute their duties with the greater good of the Connection in mind.
Thus, usurping the authority so given by the Discipline to the Trustee Board, by either the Administration or by any member of that Board, who jeopardizes Connectional property or causes destruction or alteration, or exposes the church, via their actions, to liability without the aforementioned Trustee Board and church conference approval is grounds for action [Discipline, Local Church Organization b. 8) pg. 71] and just cause for concern.
The current signed lease arrangement held with one of our tenants is woeful evidence of inadequately indemnifying and protecting the church's interests, leaving blank the spaces for provisions for proof of insurance, security deposit, amount of late payment penalties, and amount of non-sufficient fund assessment.
This tenant has, thus far, failed to provide proof of insurance; has canceled a meeting with the Trustee Board to provide such proof, the while continuing use of the facilities the following three weeks; has refused to remove its stored possessions from our Fellowship Hall stage; and has demanded use of our kitchen for the purpose of fund-raising (a consideration prohibited to the members of Ward AME Church) as a condition of the lease contract.
Our request for financial audits is grounded within our primary desire to keep the church solvent and aware of its financial condition. Our idea of an "audit" differs from yours. We desire that an "audit" be done by an objective professional: a CPA is most appropriate for this purpose. Please make the previous audit available, as we would like the opportunity to thoroughly review.
It is hyperbole to say Pastor Williams only represents Ward wherever he goes, and thereby justifies Ward incurring all travel expenditures. That is the kind of dangerously obtuse statement that allows unfettered misconduct. As Pastor Williams has so publicly stated, Ward AME is not his only job. This is contrary to the dictates of the Discipline which rates the classes of Pastors [Discipline, Ministerial Support A. Salary of Ministers (re: FULL TIME* servants of the church) and C. Classification of Churches (Class A:) pg. 114-115] regarding their commitment to their charge.
Moreover, when Ward travels a guest speaker, Ward provides for travel, accommodations and per diem. We can only surmise that other churches (as well as appropriate institutions and organizations) do like wise, thus all travel done in the name of Ward need not mean addition expenditure to Ward.
Economic considerations call for traveling within the most affordable class offered, adhering to the spirit of the Apostolic percepts notated in the Discipline [Discipline, The Itinerant Ministry, A.5.&13. pgs. 104 & 106].
Does the Travel voucher process require prior approval of travel or simply ratification and by whom?
Pastoral Accessibility
Your response stated that Pastor Williams' calling is beyond the confines of the walls of Ward AME. To say that he has been called to teach within Southern California and in other locations is to ignore the ruling determined at the 2005 Annual Conference by their classifying body that found Pastor Williams did not conform to the dictates of the Discipline's definition of a FULL TIME Class A pastor (because of those very responsibilities that he continues to entertain and pursue beyond the walls of his charge).
How anyone can think it selfish to expect your Pastor to be accessible to you at your time of need, and fully committed to the ministry that lay before him- as outlined in the Discipline- is a mystery wrapped in an enigma.
Suggesting that one day a week "open door" policy is somehow a hardship on the Pastor borders on the absurd: he is first and foremost our Pastor. His door is supposed to be open to members of his charge. He is overtly compensated to provide these services (and more), which, by the Discipline and the Connection's own definitions, are lacking.
With this brief writing, we urge you to find time soon to meet for the purpose of discussion of improving the church's finances and position with regards to risk.
Issues concerning the non-compliance of our properties (particularly our rentals) to municipal building codes (LAMBC) expose us to continued potential for punitive catastrophic financial loss and can not go unheeded.
We also note that the members of the Commission on Stewardship and Finance are to be elected by the church conference [Discipline, Optional Local Church Organization, Commissions in the Local Church, pg. 79]. If this occurred we find no record of it.
We point to this out of kindness and love. We look to do things in right and proper order within the operations of the church that it may be found harmless in the day of trial. "That, in the ages to come, He might show the exceeding riches of this grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus." [Eph. 2:7]
Time must be devoted to perform a financial examination and while we are aware of your wish to "move forward" we can't microwave our blessings. "They thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately." Luke 19:11
We leave with God's love and in anticipation of working toward our shared goals.

#3 – More than 35 5th District AME churches presently being SUED
Yes, Mo'Kelly said BEING SUED, by United Leasing Associates of America for alleged non-payment for services and "leasing of equipment." The AME churches say they were approached by TVBO and Urban Interfaith about a no-cost investment program through which the churches would lease and place educational kiosks in their buildings. People could use these kiosks to obtain information from the Internet as well as access church Web sites.
TVBO and Urban Interfaith promised to secure national sponsors and others for the kiosks, who then would make the churches' monthly lease payments and also provide the churches with additional monthly revenue from the commercial sponsorships, according to court records filed in Waukesha County Circuit Court and in Michigan.
The sponsors never materialized, court records state, and United Leasing ultimately filed lawsuits late last year and this year in against the churches after they failed to make lease payments. The involved churches have gone to Bishop Kirkland for financial relief and/or legal direction. Bishop Kirkland reportedly will not return any phone calls and a number of AME ministers are mobilizing to "bum rush" the Bishop's office. Will keep you posted.

Mo, all I can say is WOW!!!! This is truly deep. I know the people who signed that letter and they are good honest people who love their church. Brothers and Sisters it's time for the people of God to stand up and stop this madness. The scripture tells us that we do not fight against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and rulers in high place. Put on the whole amour of God, and know who and what we are fighting.
Power to the People of God
Mr. Kelly guess what. Rev. Williams took instructions from his best friend Rev. Hunter and had "3 BODY GUARDS" at Ward AME on Sunday. Thats right man there were 3 "BODY GUARDS" to protect him and his wife Yvette and I guess the money.
Why does an AME Church like Ward need some Body Guards??? Who is after the Senior Pastor? Could he be paranoid of all the nonsense he has put that church through over the past 3 years? Could he be afraid that Laudermill's spirit is coming back to haunt him for voting guilty (Calvin Dennis sat on the MEC that convicted Rev. Laudermill of the crimes)?
The Steward Board of Ward AME Church should be ashamed to call themselves Stewards.
They are pimping a church that has a rich legacy and history. What a shame that Ward has fallen prey to the thugs and pimps that took over FAME and Brookins.

Description of Complaint:
This complaint is filed against Rev. Tyler who until October 2008 was pastor of Wayman. In May 2007 the men of Wayman held a golf tourament for the John & Estelle Moten Scholarship Fund. The event netted about $5,ooo, which at Tyler's insistence was placed in the church's Central Budget. Sometime later Tyler had two church officers to sign a check transferring the funds to a checking account under his sole control. When asked about the location and availability of the funds several times Tyler returned $2,963. When asked about the remaining funds Tyler has refused to respond. I can provide details and supporting documentation. The funds were clearly raised for a single purpose. Tyler is a pastor in Denver at Shorter Community A. M. E. 3100 Richard Allen Church Denver, CO 80205.

Dear Sir
I am Miss Grace Kenga 22yrs with my only brother Michael 20yrs, we are from Bo Free Town Sierra-Leone the only surviving children of late Mr. Robert Kenga Untill his death he was a major dealer on diamond, recently he was murdered by his
partner through a rebel group called Revotionary United Front (RUF) since then we have been running for our dear lives because we got a hint that the same people are still searching for us but Glory be to God we were moved to a refugee camp in
Ghana through one of the peace keeping officials that came to our country. Before his untimely death he made us to understand of some deposit he made with a security company in Ghana. He deposited the sum of $14,000,000.00 (Fourteen Million United States Dollars) as a consignment but the officials of this deposit are not aware that its money contained in it.
They take all deposit on face value of what it's registered to contain. On this note our father registered it as artifacts and family treasures. I am writing to seek for your help to move this fund out of Ghana to your country for future investment; i discovered that we can not move
this fund out of Africa perfectly without the participation of a foreigner like you. That's why I have contacted you; we have all the necessary papers to show. Our situation in the refugee camp is bad please try as much as you can to help us out. Dont be scared of what's happening over the internet it's real you may wish to come over to Ghana and see things yourself and pursue it. Ghana as you know is a very peaceful country in sub region.
All documentation to be changed in your name to shield identity of true ownership. This business is totally risk free on your part; I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. I believe my letter will receive a favorable consideration Presently, we are staying in a refugee camp in Accra Ghana, but i have to be honest with you this transaction will cost us some money to execute
and I hope you are ready assist us financially because we can't handle it alone, but we assure you it will bring a Hugh of success at the end. Please do not hesitate to help because God knows you will never regret involving yourself in it. Whatever you spend in the process of this transaction will paid back to you while 15% will be for your assistance while 5% will be set aside for any expenses we may incur during the processing. Sir, your full details will also be required for the processing of this transaction which will benefit us mutually.
I have to tell you the truth as a woman; i feel I should let you know all this before we proceed. We shall let you know the full details of the consignment as soon as you declare your interest to carry out this transaction with us.
Finally, we will also need the help of a lawyer that will procure all the legal documents that will give you the authority to clear and claim the consignment from the security company as our late fathers foreign business partner and next of king.
I await your urgent response.
Have a blessed week.
Grace Kenga and Kengabenor

Herpes Treatment
After a conclusive herpes diagnosis, it is important to explore herpes treatment and management options. Many treatment options are available to manage the virus and increase your immune response. These treatment options include prescription antiviral medications, amino acid Lysine supplements, immune health and healthy living.
Prescription Antiviral Medications
Prescription antiviral medications include Valtrex (valacyclovir)
and Famvir (famciclovir)
and are used for episodic treatment and/or suppressive treatment. Treatment begun during the first signs of an outbreak and taken for a few days is called episodic treatment.
Episodic treatment
is most effective when taken as soon as possible after symptoms appear. Success rate increases when administered during the very first signs of an outbreak appear. Episodic treatment can assist in relieving symptoms, and to shorten the duration of each outbreak, but has no effect on the frequency of outbreaks.
Suppressive treatment
involves taking antiviral medication everyday for prolonged periods of time (can be a few months or even years). With this, the virus is stopped from replicating and treatment can reduce the number of outbreaks, or prevent them completely and reduce the frequency asymptomatic shedding.
Based on the frequency of outbreaks you experience or your ability to cope with having outbreaks of genital herpes, you may wish to tell your doctor and discuss the use of suppressive therapy herpes medication and any possible
adverse reactions
Studies indicate that the amino acid lysine has been effective in managing
herpes viral replication
. A diet that is simultaneously high in lysine and low in the amino acid arginine (which can increase HSV viral replication) can inhibit the herpes simplex virus. HSV utilizes the amino acid arginine during its active phase for viral replication which results in herpes symptoms and outbreaks. Lysine naturally counters the amount of arginine in the body. One can avoid foods high in arginine and/or take a lysine supplement which can be found at most local drug or grocery stores.
Healthy Living
Research indicates that persons with compromised immune systems are more likely to experience viral outbreaks.
