What does the Scripture mean when it tells us of the body of one man so extended in space that all can kill him? We must understand these words of ourselves, of our Church, or the body of Christ. For Jesus Christ is one man, having a Head and a body. The Saviour of the body and the members of the body are two in one flesh, and in one voice, and in one passion, and, when iniquity shall have passed away, in one repose. And so the passion of Christ is not in Christ alone; and yet the passion of Christ is in Christ alone. For if in Christ you consider both the Head and the body, the Christs passion is in Christ alone; but if by Christ you mean only the Head, then Christs passion is not in Christ alone.... Hence if you are in the members of Christ, all you who hear me, and even you who hear me not (though you do hear, if you are united with the members of Christ), whatever you suffer at the hands of those who are no among the members of Christ, was lacking to the sufferings of Christ. It is added precisely because it was lacking. You fill up the measure; you do not cause it to overflow. You will suffer just so much as must be added of your sufferings to the complete passion of Christ, who suffered as our Head and who continues to suffer in His members, that is, in us. Into this common treasury each pays what he owes, and according to each ones ability we all contribute our share of suffering. The full measure of the Passion will not be attained until the end of the world.St. Augustine of Hippo
The Apostle says: I make up in my flesh what is lacking to the sufferings of Christ (Col. 1:24). I make up, he tells us, not what is lacking to my sufferings, but what is lacking to the sufferings of Christ; not in Christs flesh, but in mine. not in Christ's flesh, but in mine. Christ is still suffering, not in His own flesh which He took with Him into heaven, but in my flesh, which is still suffering on earth.St. Augustine of Hippo
Man always acts either self-loving, just for the hell of it, or God-loving, just for the heaven of it; his reasons, his appetites are secondary motivations. Man chooses either life or death, but he chooses; everything he does, from going to the toilet to mathematical speculation, is an act of religious worship, either of God or of himself. Lastly by the classical apotheosis of Man-God, Augustine oppose the Christian belief in Jesus Christ, the God-Man. The former is a Hercules who compels recognition by the great deeds he does in establishing for the common people in the law, order and prosperity they cannot establish for themselves, by his manifestation of superior power; the latter reveals to fallen man that God is love by suffering, i.e. by refusing to compel recognition, choosing instead to be a victim of man's self-love. The idea of a sacrificial victim is not new; but that it should be the victim who chooses to be sacrificed, and the sacrificers who deny that any sacrifice has been made, is very new.Wystan Hugh Auden
The truly tragic kind of suffering is the kind produced and defiantly insisted upon by the hero himself so that, instead of making him better, it makes him worse and when he dies he is not reconciled to the law but defiant, that is, damned. Lear is not a tragic hero, Othello is.Wystan Hugh Auden
I am certain that a Sewing Machine would relieve as much human suffering as a hundred Lunatic Asylums, and possibly a good deal more.Margaret Eleanor Atwood
There are times of great change, times when old landmarks are being upset, when submerged forces are rising, and just as we deal promptly or linger over the solution of these problems, our progress will be rapid or slow, sound or broken... The problem is put to us one by one, to each nation one by one... He has shown us the possibility of strength within us, and then He has shown us where the danger, the weakness lies. He is pointing out to us how is it that we may become strong. On us it lies ... to answer the question which God has put to us, and according as we answer on it depends how this movement will progress, what route it will take, and whether it will lead to a swift and sudden salvation, or whether, after so many centuries of tribulation and sufferings there is still a long period of tribulation and suffering before us. God has put the question to us and with us entirely it lies to answer.Sri Aurobindo
But that immergence is not in the nature of an annihilation. Extinction is not the fulfilment of all this search and passion, suffering and rapture. The game would never have been begun if that were to be its ending.Sri Aurobindo
O soldier and hero of God, where for thee is sorrow or shame or suffering? For thy life is a glory, thy deeds a consecration, victory thy apotheosis, defeat thy triumph.Sri Aurobindo
Fear is the greatest enemy; the father of all suffering, and love is the only cure for humanitys great afflictions.Bryant McGill
Before my eyes are many miserable scenes, the suffering of others and myself forces my hands to move. I become a machine for writing.Li Yaotang
One does not love a place the less for having suffered in it, unless it has been all suffering, nothing but suffering.Jane Austen
You read something which you thought only happened to you, and you discover that it happened 100 years ago to Dostoyevsky. This is a very great liberation for the suffering, struggling person, who always thinks that he is alone. This is why art is important. Art would not be important if life were not important, and life is important.James Baldwin
If you believe in the... War in Heaven where a third of the angels were cast out... it was about man's choice and he would provide a saviour and Satan's plan was... I'll save everybody... just take away their choice and give me the credit...that plan was rejected... because God knew that...failure was important ...the progressives have... replaced God... they are taking.... rights are not given to us by our creator, they created by congress, they are taking the role of God, and so they are taking away our suffering, they are taking away all of our pain, all of the opportunity to fail...Glenn Beck
So-called "realist" photography does not capture the "what is." Instead, it is preoccupied with what should not be, like the reality of suffering for example.Jean Baudrillard
Suffering for love is how I have learned practically everything I know, love of grandmother up and on.Djuna Barnes
Little effort was made to explain Saddam's culpability, his misuse of Iraqi resources, or the fact that we were not embargoing medicine or food. I was exasperated that our TV was showing what amounted to Iraqi propaganda...I must have been crazy; I should have answered the question by reframing it and pointing out the inherent flaws in the premise behind it. Saddam Hussein could have prevented any child from suffering simply by meeting his obligations. Instead, I said the following: 'I think this is a very hard choice, but the price, we think, the price is worth it.' As soon as I had spoken, I wished for the power to freeze time and take back those words. My reply had been a terrible mistake, hasty, clumsy, and wrong. Nothing matters more than the lives of innocent people. I had fallen into a trap and said something that I simply did not mean. That is no one's fault but my own.Albright, Madeleine
Physician of the Iron Age, Goethe has done his pilgrimage. He took the suffering human race, He read each wound, each weakness clear And struck his finger on the place, And said Thou ailest here, and here.Matthew Arnold
Given Iraq's strategic location, its large oil reserves, and the suffering of the Iraqi people, we cannot afford to replace a despot with chaos. It would be a tragedy if we removed a tyrant in Iraq only to leave chaos in its wake.Joseph Robinette
Not even the apparently enlightened principle of the greatest good for the greatest number can excuse indifference to individual suffering. There is no test for progress other than its impact on the individual.Aneurin Bevan
Anxiety destroys scale, and suffering makes us lose perspective.Saul Bellow
I think it is very beautiful for the poor to accept their lot, to share it with the passion of Christ. I think the world is being much helped by the suffering of the poor people.Mother Teresa of Calcutta
They might try to remind me That Such Tragedy surrounds me But this suffering created art I never found it scary... I was all undercoverMaryAnne Ysabella
I believe in a God, who, whether we understand it now or ever will, does the thing for us, which is the best thing for us out of Love even if its painful. And I think thats the truth. So, if youre in a great pain, and if youre suffering, remember that this is in the middle and that youre on your way some place, and its beneficial to you and even better than that, it might be beneficial to others so, that what I have to say to that tonight I know its short I hope its sweet, and Ill see you next time so, good night.MaryAnne Ysabella

Wednesday, February 20th, 20:20hrs:
Duty Crew 1 was alerted to a house fire off Oak Grove Road near the Herndon town limits. Dispatch reported that they were receiving multiple calls describing a well involved detached garage.
To make things interesting, the callers were reporting two near – but different – locations of the fire. Dispatch alerted a second structural assignment to respond to the second reported address in case there were indeed two separate fires. After units arrived on scene, it was determined that both reports and subsequent dispatches were for the same fire.
The initial dispatch included two command officers, Sterling Fire Deputy Chief 618 and Loudoun County Battalion Chief 601. When the second dispatch was sounded, the battalion chief was able to split off and manage the additional units. This proved to be a very important success point of this call as the greatest challenge was managing all of the incoming units.
Fairfax Engine 404 was the closest engine to the fire and arrived on scene first to make a quick knockdown. They were supported by units from Dulles Airport and additional engines from Fairfax County. Sterling Fire's Engine 611 and Tower 611 rounded out the assignment. Even though the fire was located in Sterling's first due, the long standing automatic mutual aid agreements in place put the closest engine on scene first and all units worked well to quickly extinguish the fire.
E611 and TL611 on the scene, and a picture from the next day.

About Us

General Assembly 2009 Event 2005
Presenters: Rev. Dr. Jane Rzepka, Rev. Dr. William Schulz. Sponsored by the Church of the Larger Fellowship (CLF).
Nearly 250 people gathered for the Church of the Larger Fellowship worship service, which opened with inspiring music. Sarah Dan Jones, Board Member of the Unitarian Universalist Musicians Network (UUMN), led the congregation in two African American spirituals, "Guide My Feet" and "Come and Go With Me." Than a special ensemble, featuring the first graduates of Credentialed Music Leaders of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), sang "We Are One," by Carolyn McDade.
The Rev. Dr. Jane Rzepka, senior minister for CLF, welcomed the congregants to our once-a-year "dose of church," and all present joined to sing "Gather the Spirit," by UU composer Jim Scott.
Rzepka welcomed those gathered in body, and those listening and watching from afar, in spirit, and shared an anecdote about growing up as a UU in another Mormon community, in Ohio. When her peers from the Church of Latter-day Saints (LDS) found out she was a UU, their reaction was envy—that her faith had such a short name!
Elka Carmen Ladd, facilitator of the Church of the Younger Fellowship (CYF), told about three recent CYF developments: a website update, to include social networking tools; the completion of the 1st year of a visioning process with the steering committee; and the arrival of CYF's new minister, Amber Beland, whom she welcomed in the hall.
Centering the congregation for the service, Jones lit a musical chalice for love, hope and peace, and led the group in "Meditation on Breathing." Rzepka read from Wendell Berry's 1988 essay, "Economy and Pleasure," on being greatly joyous at any mundane moment.
The Rev. Lynn Ungar, CLF Minister for Lifespan Learning, led a mediation based on an excerpt from american poet Adrienne Rich, and the ensemble sang "My Heart is Moved," by Carolyn McDade, with lyrics by Adrienne Rich. They were accompanied by Sarah Dan Jones on flute and Connie Jahrmarkt on violin.
Rzepka's homily pondered Rich's words, "to reconstitute the world." What are we UUs trying to accomplish when we gather? Promoting dignity is not enough. We must also know and share beauty, the pleasure of living life.
She asked if UUs are unique in this pursuit. She noted our presence in Salt Lake City, where the Mormon Church of Latter Day Saints is eager to claim same values. Rzepka grew up in the same Ohio town where Joseph Smith, the founder of LDS, grew up. LDS champions dignity, so aren't we just the same? No, she replied. What makes us unique is that UUs are also working for justice, and we don't have to confess our sins before we can celebrate beauty.
The congregation joined in singing "For All That is Our Life," a hymn with lyrics by British Unitarian minister Bruce Findlow.
The Rev. Dr. Bill Schulz introduced the anthem by providing some background on the legacy of labor in America. He spoke about the first strike led by female workers, which was met with a harsh response. The women had famously chanted, "We want bread, but we want roses too." James Oppenheim turned that line into his well-known poem, to ask for justice along with the beauty of life.
The ensemble gave a poignant rendition of this piece, paced and emphasized a steady beat from Sarah Dan Jones' hand drum. Schulz, a past UUA president and former head of Amnesty International, then shared a homily about finding beauty, based on a story from his work in international justice.
At a refuge camp in Darfur, where body and spirit quickly become downtrodden, he saw a bedraggled woman who wore a beautiful glass pendant. She explained through an interpreter, "It is me." "Though I am brute flesh," Schulz interpreted her statement to mean, "I retain a tiny hint of my humanity." Refugee camps are frightening places, he reminded us, because they don't affirm needs of the spirit. Just like the sweatshop workers who called for "bread and roses," we all want to know we have both dignity and beauty. Humans need more than base necessities, and it reminds those who would harm us that we have value.
But everyone has access to beauty- that's the connection between beauty and justice. The rich walk over the Pont Neuf; the poor sleep under it. From his seaside home in Gloucester, Massachusetts, overlooking the ocean, Schulz resolves to do all he can to see that all people have access to transforming grace.
The ensemble reprised the "Bread and Roses" anthem, and the Rev. Rzepka offered, as a benediction, "May the light of our values be in us and shining through us in all of our days."
The service closeed with a rousing rendition of "This Little Light of Mine," led by the Rev. Maddie Sifantus of the UU Church of Wakefield, MA. Sifantus is director emerita of the Golden Tones Elder Chorus, as well as acting director of MUSE, Inc., an organization for music service elders.

Grundfos Pumps Corp.
- Category: Fluid Handling
- Product Type: Pumps
- Manufacturer: Grundfos Pumps
Featuring the highest efficiency of its type, superior reliability and a variety of options, the Grundfos CR range is the most comprehensive pump on the market, according to the manufacturer. Grundfos points out that the CR runs on substantially less power than competitors, potentially saving thousands of kilowatts annually. Customized CR pumps are available for special requirements such as high-temperature, high-viscosity, explosive or aggressive liquids.
Dry-running protection
Some 25% of all pump failures are caused by dry-running. Featured on all Grundfos CR pumps, the LiqTec prevents the disastrous consequences of dry-running. The Grundfos LiqTec acts as such a finger by checking at intervals of a fraction of a second to make sure there is liquid in the pump. If there isn't any liquid, LiqTec stops the pump immediately.

The first Skycycle was
born in 1992 at Lookout Mountain Flight Park, Tennessee. Since then
approximately between 150 and 175 people have bought one.
"All the time I get folks who say they had one of the original
Freedom Machines (Early Skycycle), then moved into a big
two-seater, and now want to come back to the simpler, more fun side
again. The most positive aspect of this machine is its delightful
handling in relatively calm air where the finger-tip control and
sensitivity to every nuance of the air is right in your hands,"
reported Matt Tabor, company spokesman in an exclusive interview
with ANN.
The new FAA rules for Light Sport Aircraft and sport pilot have
nothing to do with these delightful flyers. They require no
regulatory certificates for either the pilot or machine. Flight
training is not complex because the mode of operation is not
complex. Likewise the mechanical needs are easy to understand and
within the grasp of most household mechanics reports Tabor.
Tabor continued, "And the rewards are so great! For example,
just this morning I got a call from a fairly new Skycycle pilot who
was simply flying around his home airport this morning when he flew
into a little rising air. His vertical speed went up about 200 feet
per minute, so he throttled back a little. Then he started going up
about 300 feet per minute so he completely went to idle. Still up
so he shut it off and spent the next 30 minutes soaring the area.
His total hang glider time had been about 20 minutes total in five
years of disappointing attempts, and just this morning he more than
tripled that time with no foot launching, finding a hill, paying
for a tow plane or any of that. It was a highlight of his life. He
had to call me right away."
Factory specifications
include that the Skycycle has two models, the X and S. Because the
chariot (or trike or carriage) is attached to various hang glider
wings, performance becomes specific to the combination of engine,
wing and pilot weight.
The chariot X sports a 4130 spring steel landing gear, titanium
axles, four-point safety seat belt harness, padded seat, and 48" or
54" diameter propeller. It's made in the USA. A Skycycle with 28
horsepower will typically take-off and land in less than 100 feet,
with at least a 500 feet per minute climb, fly 22 to 54 mph, and
weigh a total of 95 pounds for the chariot depending on

A compelling journey is often part of the resume of any influential New Yorker, but Hunter College President Jennifer Raab can pinpoint exactly what started the journey of her lifetime -- a school bus ride through Manhattan. NY1's Budd Mishkin filed the following One On 1 profile.
Growing up, Hunter College President Jennifer Raab had an outlook unusual for many college presidents.
"I never expected to be sitting in this office. it wasn't clear to me I would ever get to go to college," says Raab.
She grew up in Washington Heights, raised primarily by a single mother without much money. One of the keys to Raab's story was her leaving the neighborhood to attend the then all-girls Hunter College High School.
"In Washington heights, 10 girls went downtown to take the test and three of us 'made Hunter.' And we were all told, 'You can't go downtown and become a man-hater and a snob. You don't leave the hood.' And it was one of those few things my mother said: 'You're getting on that bus,'" says Raab.
More than 40 years later, Raab oversees all of Hunter, including the college and graduate schools like the School of Social Work in its new location in East Harlem.
The refurbished Roosevelt House, site of Hunter's Public Policy Institute, was the home of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt before FDR was inaugurated as president in 1933.
"So between November 8, 1932 when he wins until March 1933, he's here planning his adminstration and cabinet," says Raab.
Since becoming Hunter's president in 2001, Raab has been credited with raising the school's academic, financial and public profile.
"We make a joke here that you can get three MFAs at Hunter College for the price of one at an Ivy League school uptown and we're proud of that," says Raab.
Hunter is often named among the Best Value Public Colleges by Princeton Review and USA Today.
But when the one-time litigator and Landmarks Preservation Commission chairman was first considered for the position, there was significant opposition.
"I was a career changer and I knew I had a lot to learn. And I thought it was fair for people to doubt whether someone with no background in academia could do this job," says Raab.
She is often included on lists of the "most powerful women" in New York. Her view of being a college president has changed since her first days on the job.
"Someone I worked with said, 'You can't go on this way.' I said, 'What do you mean?' You can't have a call sheet three pages long," says Raab. "You have to decide: are you an internal president or an external president? Are you going to stay here and deal with the things we do every day or go outside and represent Hunter College?"
The reality is, it's both and a lot more.
Raab is married to New York Post political columnist Michael Goodwin and they have a teenaged daughter.
Time spent promoting Hunter means that Raab has faced the same dilemma as many other working parents in New York.
"If you don't go to an event that night because you're chosen to go home to put your kid to bed, you think about whether you should have been at that event. Maybe there was a donor who would have donated to Hunter College and that would have made a difference and why go home?" says Raab. "And every night you don't go home, you think about some influential story you could have told or an example you could have set or just a comfort level."
As an attorney, public official and now college president, Jennifer Raab has long interacted with New York's powerful and influential. But who she is can still be traced back directly to the old neighborhood and her home at Fort Washington Avenue and 173rd Street.
Life was anything but easy. Raab had a sister who was institutionalized and later died at the infamous Willowbrook State School for the Mentally Handicapped.
Raab's father died when she was only eight. The message from her mother was clear.
"'We are picking up the pieces and we are moving on.' She dealt with the tragedy in her life by moving past it quickly. And there are probably issues from that, but it provided for me a model of incredible strength," says Raab.
Hunter College High School, and as she puts it,"the intensity of the classroom" also provided a model for her.
"That really changed my life. It made me feel I could be a college graduate but even more importantly, I could be a scholar," says Raab. "I could learn in a deep way and that really changed who I thought I was."
Her education actually began on the bus ride to school, from Washington Heights, through Harlem to the Upper East Side, an experience Raab calls "pivotal."
"1960s, abandoned storefronts, true deep poverty in Harlem, that the world really wasn't a just place. Because when I got off the bus, I got off the bus at Fifth Avenue and 68th Street and it was clear to me, even as a 12-year-old, that there were haves and have nots," says Raab.
That experience fed an early passion to work for change. Raab served in Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's administration, but in 1989, when she was first invited to meet then-mayoral candidate Giuliani, she was skeptical.
"I was a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat, very liberal, a lawyer not in love with prosecutors and I said, 'Should I meet this guy? This does not sound like me,'" says Raab. "I got up in the morning and said, 'Another adventure.' We met and there was an immediate click."
Raab's time at Hunter has not been entirely smooth sailing. There was the initial dissension over whether a non-academic should be president of the college. There have been occasional student protests over issues like diversity and open enrollment.
Her influence at the college and beyond is unquestioned and the same was true in her previous places of work. But Raab believes there is still a subtle discrimination against women.
"If there's a room full of people with a tall man, everyone assumes he's the boss if you just show everyone a picture. So we all know it exists," says Raab. "My daughter doesn't think there is a glass ceiling. Isn't that amazing? Isn't that a blessing? But should I give her any doubt and should I try make her cautious? Because I think there still is a glass ceiling in some places."
The realities of running an institution like Hunter require forward thinking. But Raab has a passion, a respect, even a love for the path she's taken, coming full circle.
"I really believed my success happened right here. I thought I had a chance to give back and help others. While that was perhaps a bit arrogant to think, well you could change these lives, it was a real passion to do something positive," says Raab.
After Raab became president, she helped create Manhattan Hunter Science High School, a school with primarily low-income students, much like she was when she attended Hunter College High School.
The curriculum at Manhattan Hunter Science High School is designed specifically to prepare students for studying in college.

The Pakistani military is the most important institution in the country.
Ayub Khan, a former military ruler, described the relationship between the Pakistani state and the military thus: "The military in our country is an institution for which a piece of real estate was attached."
Pakistan's army is the seventh largest in the world with 650,000 troops on active duty plus 302,000 paramilitary and 528,000 reservists; that gives the country a 1,400,000 fighting force.
The military institution of Pakistan received a huge boost in 1999 when the country entered the nuclear club.
As the Pakistani army intensifies its offensive against the Taliban, Inside Story asks: Is the army really committed to the fight? Is it properly prepared for counter-insurgency? What role other than fighting does the military hold in Pakistani politics and how much control does the army have over the future of the country?
Lauren Taylor, our presenter, is joined by Maria Sultan, the director of the South Asian Strategic Stability Institute; Salman Ahmed, a journalist specialising on Pakistani Affairs; and Julian Schofield, a professor of political science at Concordia University and author of numerous books on Pakistani military affairs.
This episode of Inside Story aired on Wednesday, May 13, 2009.

Short-tailed Shearwater Puffinus tenuirostris
Awkward and ungainly on land, the short-tailed shearwater is a tireless flier, skirting around most of the north Pacific during its annual migration. Like other shearwaters, it travels just inches above the waves in fast-moving flocks, interrupting its flight whenever it spots food. However, it has a narrower bill than other shearwaters, and its overall color is a dark, smoky brown. It nests in vast island colonies, each pair producing a single chick. Fed on a rich diet of oily food, the chicks weigh more than their parents by the time they leave the nest. For several centuries, shearwater chicks have been harvested for their oil and meat. The practice continues today, although the numbers killed are now strictly controlled.
The short-tailed shearwater has a unique figure-eight migration route, 20,800 miles (33,500 km) long, that takes advantage of prevailing winds. After laying eggs in November and December, the birds head north in April and May, reaching the Bering Sea by August. They then move south along North America's west coast, before returning to their breeding colonies.

Reduce that tiresome weeding chore with a thick layer of organic mulch or a high quality landscape fabric. Both are easy to apply and inexpensive, and they'll improve the appearance of your gardens too.
By the DIY experts of The Family Handyman Magazine:June 2012
Use an organic
mulch or high-quality
fabric. Don't
use black
You have two good choices for the best weed barrier—organic mulch or high-quality landscape fabric. (Don't use
black plastic. It doesn't allow rain to reach plant roots, and it traps water vapor, which facilitates
the growth of mold and mildew.)
An organic mulch such as shredded bark, in a layer several inches deep, will help control
weeds. It will also decompose over time, which will add organic matter to the soil and make your
tree happier. However, you'll have to add more
organic mulch every couple of years.
Landscape fabric, when protected from sunlight,
decomposes more slowly than organic
mulch and doesn't need to be replaced as
often. However, the type of landscape
fabric makes a difference. Hold
the fabric up to the light
and make sure the pores
in the fabric are small
enough to prevent weeds
from growing through the
barrier. Also, a good-quality
landscape fabric
is one you can't tear or
stretch easily. It should feel stiff,
not flimsy and limp.
Have the necessary tools for this DIY project lined up before you start—you'll save time and frustration.
Avoid last-minute shopping trips by having all your materials ready ahead of time. Here's a list.

"I work in a company where leaders think gemba walks are scheduled visits to the factory to look at performance visibility boards (forgetting to turn around and look at the work.) How do we try and correct this false thinking?"

This is a discussion on Panasonic VIERA TC-P55ST50 55-Inch 1080p HDTV Thoughts? within the Television Sets (Flat Panel, DLP, CRT) forums, part of the Home Theater category.
Looking at HDTVs again this year. I'd like to make a move in the next week or so, and on something around 55" with 1080p and internet apps. I've narrowed my selection down to the Panasonic VIERA TC-P55ST50. I think at least. Anyone care to comment? It's about ,000 which is my budget.

Vice-Chair, Canada Council for the Arts,
CEO, National Theatre School of Canada
Simon Brault is the CEO of the National Theatre School of Canada, where he has held several key positions since 1981. He initiated Journées de la culture (1997), a Québec-wide cultural event; he founded Culture Montréal (2002) and, since 2007, heads the steering committee of Montréal, Cultural Metropolis. He is cultural advisor (2010) for the Québec government's Agenda 21C and is in his second term as Vice-Chair of the Canada Council for the Arts. In 2009, he launched Le FACTEUR C – L'Avenir passe par la culture, translated into English in 2010 as No Culture, No Future. In 2011, the Presses de l'Université du Québec published a monograph titled Simon Brault: Prendre fait et cause pour la culture.
Working in the performing arts today means being constantly challenged by an infinite number of demographic, economic and political shifts at a local and global level, by technological innovations and by profound and very rapid changes of behaviour amongst the public.
Cultural organizations are urged to evolve, explore new territories and reinvent themselves quickly enough to avoid being marginalized or even, collapse and disappear.
This uncomfortable sense of urgency can be a powerful incentive for the mobilization of our collective intelligence and resources in order to reposition the performing arts in a digitalized, on-demand and more dematerialized world. It is not so much a question of communication, marketing or even creative approaches to management but rather of value-driven leadership, true commitment to advancing public engagement in the arts and a profound redefinition of the notion of growth. It is also a matter of timing and scaling of change.

VIDEO: Woman arrested after report of a gun at Shortlidge Academy
Wilmington police say the parent of a Shortlidge Academy student has been charged with disorderly conduct after an incident that led to a one hour school lockdown.
WDEL's Amy Cherry reports.
It happened on the 100 block of West 18th Street at Shortlidge Academy in Wilmington at 9:30 Thursday morning.
Wilmington police say the parent of a Shortlidge Academy student has been charged after an incident that led to a one hour school lockdown.
Police say the woman forced her way into the principal's office to complain about bullying to her children and became disorderly. She reportedly became "irate" after a perceived lack of school reaction to the bullying.
School staff mistakenly thought she was armed with a handgun and called police, who later determined she did not have a firearm. No one was hurt.
Dr. Hugh Broomall, deputy superintendent of the Red Clay School District spoke with NBC 10.
"She came in and she was loud, very demonstrative with the school principal, which set an alarm for her, and in this day in age, you can never be too cautious so the principal took the appropriate action and contacted police," says Broomall.
After taking the woman into custody, they determined she did not have a gun.
Police say the woman didn't make any threats to school staff but she remains at headquarters while she awaits arraignment.

Press staffers win more national journalism awards
Houston Press staffers did well in two national journalism contests in announcements made over the past week.
Paul Knight captured first place in the Public Service category of the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies' AltWeekly awards, while Chris Vogel placed second in the Society of Environmental Journalists' national competition in the Small Market category. The SEJ competition is known as the largest environmental journalism competition in the country.
Knight won for his story "Wild Rides," which detailed acceleration problems with the Toyota Prius months before any other media reported on the matter.
Vogel was cited for his story "A Quiet Hell" that investigated the lax enforcement standards the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality uses in its oversight of pollution by chemical plants.
That same story also earned Vogel a second place in the Investigative category in the AltWeekly competition.
In other AAN competitions:
The Rocks Off music blog at www.houstonpress.com placed second in music blogs.
Former food writer Robb Walsh placed second in the Multimedia category for his story "Not So Clear Cut," which detailed in story, photos and video what happens when a cow is butchered.
And former editorial fellow Mike Giglio placed third in News Story Long Form for "Getting Off," about Houston attorney Tyler Flood and how he represents his clients charged with DWI.

All Media Network
|Trading name
|All Media Network, LLC
|All Media Guide, AllRovi
|Michael Erlewine
|San Francisco, California, United States
|AllMusic, AllMovie, AllGame, SideReel, Celebified
|Footnotes / references
All Media Network (formerly All Media Guide or AMG, and later, AllRovi), is an American company that owns and maintains AllMusic, AllGame, AllMovie, SideReel, and Celebified. AMG was founded in 1990 by popular-culture archivist Michael Erlewine which started with the All Music Guide (now AllMusic) in 1991, and expanded to offer the All Movie Guide (now AllMovie) in 1994 and the All Game Guide (now AllGame) in 1998.[3] In late 2007, Macrovision (now Rovi Corporation) acquired the Guides for a reported $72 million.[4] Rovi in turn, sold the consumer access to them to newly established All Media Network, LLC in 2013, while retaining ownership and maintenance of the content itself.[5][6]
The company was founded in Big Rapids, Michigan in 1990, and aimed to "[compile] discographic information on every artist who's made a record since Enrico Caruso gave the industry its first big boost" with the All Music Guide (now AllMusic), which launched in 1991.[7] They expanded with the All Movie Guide (now AllMovie) in 1994 and the All Game Guide (now AllGame) in 1998. AMG moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1999 to take advantage of the "rich talent pool".[3] AMG was a business unit within Alliance Entertainment Corporation from 1996 until early 2005. Alliance was acquired in 1999 by Yucaipa Companies, a multi-billion dollar fund based in California. Macrovision (now Rovi) announced on November 6, 2007 that it had agreed to purchase All Media Guide.[8] For a time, all of the guides were controlled by Rovi's nameservers and combined access to the All Music and All Movie Guides was provided via AllRovi.com from 2011 until 2013. In 2013, Rovi sold consumer access of the content to the newly established All Media Network, LLC, but retained control of licensing the content to other businesses. The encompassing website that was once allmediaguide.com and then allrovi.com is now allmedianetwork.com.
Business model[edit]
All Media Network licenses large databases of metadata about movies, video games, audio books, and music releases from Rovi Corporation and publishes them online for consumer use. This includes credits, and staff-written biographies, reviews, ratings, and recommendations as well as categories such as theme or mood.[6] Rovi also makes this content available for point of sale systems in stores globally, for CD and DVD recognition in software media players such as Windows Media Player and Musicmatch Jukebox, and for providing content for a variety of websites including iTunes, Pandora, and Spotify.[9][10]
Formerly, AMG sold print compilations of its information.[7]
AllMusic[11] is an online database which provides access to information about songs, albums, musicians, bands, and musical styles alongside staff-authored news, reviews, biographies, ratings and recommendations. The content was initially published in book form in 1991 as the All Music Guide, and is now freely available to the public for online reference and information as well as available via licensing for point-of-sale systems, media players, and online music stores.[3]
AllMovie,[12] launched in 1994 as the All Movie Guide, provides access to information about actors, films, and filmmakers with staff-authored news, reviews, ratings, and recommendations. It offers limited information about Television productions, focused mainly on those released on DVD. Like AllMusic, this content is also available via licensing to point-of-sale systems, media players, and online stores.[3][13]
AllGame[14] was launched in 1998 as the All Game Guide and offers information and reviews about many console, hand held, arcade, and PC games released in the US.[2][3]
SideReel,[15] launched in 2007, is a TV community site which provides information about TV shows and episodes.[2]
Celebified offers celebrity news and interviews and started in 2012.[2]

I worked at Larkspur Hotels & Rest. full-time (more than an year)
Very accessible due to availabilities of alternative means of transportation like train, public passenger buses and shuttle buses. Company also gives yearly bonus and salary increases to deserving employees.
For maintenance purposes, there is no suitable space to perform effective maintenance/repair works. The workshop is too small and ill-equipped for that purpose. Also, the company does not implement a continuous training for maintenance people to keep them abreast of new technologies.
Implement the long delayed on-line trouble shooting guide for maintenance people.
