Project AGAPE: Christmas Shoe Boxes Needed
Dear Pastors and Mission Chairs:
It's time for our churches to start collecting items for Christmas Shoe Boxes! Our WNCC United Methodist connection, Project AGAPE, sends Christmas Shoe Boxes to children in the Kashatagh region of Nagorno-Karabakh for distribution. Begin planning now to collect items. The drop off dates are September 23-27. The drop off locations are: Maylo UMC (Gastonia), Salem UMC (Morganton), FUMC Lenoir, Central UMC (Clyde), FUMC China Grove, Groce UMC (Asheville), Clemmons UMC (Clemmons), Hinshaw UMC (Greensboro), and Memorial UMC (Thomasville). See attached information for further details. Please encourage your churches to support this United Methodist ministry of Christmas Shoe Boxes for the children of Armenia.
This information is also for collection of clothing for AGAPE and flood buckets for UMCOR.
Click on the links to access files for the Christmas Shoe Boxes, the Fellowship of 1000, and the MRC Packing Guide. Please note the drop off list of dates on the attached MRC Packing Guide brochure does not have our correct September dates. Make a note to change the drop off dates to September 23-27.
Also, please remember NOT to place checks or cash for shipping in the shoe boxes themselves. Either write a check to the WNCC Treasurer and mail it directly to the conference office or, have your local church collect the donations and then have your church treasurer write one check to send to the conference. Finally, be sure to place Project AGAPE-Christmas Shoe Boxes on your check.
If you have any questions about Project AGAPE, please contact Rev. Allan Van Meter at email@example.com or by phone, 336-403-6792 (cell).

Protesters picketing at Pulte Homes construction sites in Florence and Mesa were demanding that water be provided for laborers working on new homes — but they got more water than they wished for.
The AFL-CIO posted video on YouTube of several incidents this week showing protesters being drenched by a water truck that moved slowly back and forth on a subdivision street where new homes are under construction. One of the protesters appears to throw a sign at the truck.
Manny Gonzalez, a spokesman for the Sheet Metal Workers International Association, and AFL-CIO affiliate, called the incident an "assault" and said the union is consulting its attorneys on possible legal action.
"(Pulte officials) say they were doing dust control," Gonzalez said. "The only dust being controlled was on the workers' backs."
Victor Trejo, one of the protesters, said he was "surprised and humiliated" by the dousing.
A representative of Pulte Homes said the company takes the incident seriously and is investigating.
"We don't condone what has happened here at all," said Jacque Petroulakis, Pulte's director of public affairs for the Southwest region. "But it's clear the video has been heavily edited. It appears the picketers are not trying to get out of the way. We told them of our obligations to control dust, and they did not get out of the way."
Petroulakis said the video is part of an ongoing labor union campaign using paid protesters that is targeting nonunion subcontractors hired by Pulte Homes.
Gonzalez denied that the labor group is trying to organize the subcontractors. The protests only relate to working conditions, he said.
"This is a social justice issue," he said. "The only reason unions are involved is to assist these workers to get justice at the job site."
Gonzales said the two-minute video shows three separate incidents that took place on May 16, 23 and 24. Two were at Pulte construction sites in Florence and one in Mesa, he said.
Among the complaints of the protesters were that workers didn't have sufficient access to water in the hot working conditions and were not provided the tools and safety equipment they needed to do their jobs.
Petroulakis said Pulte has been asking the union for specific information about the claims of poor treatment but hasn't received a response.
"The unions have been making these claims since last year, but they have never provided detailed specific examples we can investigate," she said. "The safety and welfare of everyone is of great interest to us."
Petroulakis said the homebuilder uses a mix of union and nonunion subcontractors in its housing developments.
The company uses both Pulte and contracted trucks to control dust, she said. Although one of the trucks shown in the video has a "Pulte" sign on its side, it appears to be spraying the street, not individuals, she said. The truck spraying the protesters does not have identification on its side, she said.
"I wouldn't want to imply that a contractor was at fault," she said. "But we are taking it seriously. We are investigating to see what happened."
She added the company hopes to get an unedited version of the video from the union.
Dana Kennedy, a spokeswoman for the AFL-CIO, said the video does not show all of the dousing incidents that have taken place at Pulte construction sites. She said workers have counted up to 16 water "assaults" in one day.
Pulte Homes
Headquarters: Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
Business: Homebuilder operating in 27 states; delivered 41,487 homes in 2006 under Pulte, Del Webb and DiVosta brands

An internship in production management would provide the opportunity to observe alongside the production manager as they oversee all production departments in facilitating the realization of the director and designers' vision for each production. Learn about the day-to-day running of the production office, observe technical rehearsals and attend production meetings.
Hours in the department are flexible depending on the time of season the intern is available. In order for the intern to have the optimum experience, the suggested time commitment is 40 hours a week for at least 2 months.
Stage Management (seasonal)
2014-15 Season
The stage management intern experience at Children's Theatre Company (CTC) is set up to give the intern an internal view of the rehearsal process of a professional regional theatre.
The stage management intern will observe the daily duties of CTC's stage management team: the set up of the rehearsal hall, both the overall and the daily production paperwork, the running of the rehearsals themselves and the outside communication and collaboration with the designers and production staff. The intern also has a unique opportunity to look at how a director puts a show together – from the rehearsal process to production/design meetings to technical rehearsals to previews to opening night.
Intern candidates must have substantial previous stage management experience with a college, community, or professional theatre.
Since the production schedule is intense and very strenuous, a strong commitment to a career in theater is necessary. The stage management schedule is based on a six-day work week. Rehearsals can run from 11am to 9pm with a dinner break – times may vary depending on the cast and artistic team. Interns may work hours on either end of this schedule to do preparatory work. The internship takes place during the rehearsal period only and completes on opening night. Interns may be invited to stay and participate in understudy rehearsals post-opening. EMC points can be available for this internship.

It is important to note that the experience of a directing intern is entirely dependent upon the process of the production's director; therefore, the nature of each internship may vary widely.

The period of time may vary from about four weeks to two months, depending upon the production schedule. The rehearsal day is typically 8 to 10 hours a day, six days a week. Some days span a twelve hour time period. Mondays are the customary day off.

Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro, It's Look Like Tablet With Awesome Performance
Well, after looking Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro
, in my mind it's a tablet. With design and small size 10,6″ combining with black color is the same as tablet on the market today, but it not a tablet. The Surface Pro looks like a tablet. It can work like a tablet. You can hold it in one hand and draw on it with the other. It even comes with a plastic stylus that works beautifully.
Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro is a full-blown Windows PC, with the same Intel chip that powers many high-end laptops, and even two fans to keep it cool. Microsoft Surface Pro is lightning fast and can take advantage of both Windows 8-optimized apps and traditional x86 software. The improvements are owed to the Surface Pro's dual-core 1.7GHz Intel Core i5 processor, which gives the product a much-needed shot in the arm, as well as some additional heft.
Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro is equipped like a laptop, and a pretty good one. It has a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5-3317u processor with integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000, 4GB of RAM, and either 64GB or 128GB of internal storage. Screen resolution is big 1920×1080 pixel touch screen display.
Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro
have one USB 3.0 jack in the tablet, and a second ingeniously built into the power cord, so you can charge your phone as you work. Or you can connect anything you'd connect to a PC: external drives, flash drives, keyboard, mouse, speakers, cameras and so on.
Tablet Microsoft Surface Pro, is very fast, consistent, and capable as any ultra-book. I've tested in the last several months, and from a touch and responsiveness standpoint may be the best I've used. It has no confusing app incompatibilities, no weird performance issues.
For the batteries I think is fair enough as long as you use it wisely. But if you use this device for gaming or another hard application, the batteries is suck. The battery life is 3.5 hours for normal use, but not for gaming. If you use it for gaming the battery life only for 1 – 1.5 hours long.
Watch This Video Review :
Here the good or bad review from this device :
Good Stuff
- Fast, consistent performance
- Handsome and well-made
- Fantastic display
Bad Stuff
- Poor battery life
- Heavy and thick
- Really hard to actually use on your lap

Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
If I were doing it, I'd cover the top of the cake with a smooth circle of fondant about 2" larger than the diameter and apply it. I'd then roll out a long rectangle of fondant about 2X the height of the tier and a bit shorter than the circumference. I'd gently pleat the piece evenly so that it was as wide as the height of the tier and let it sit for a few minutes. I'd then apply it around the cake tier, turning under the ends a bit. I'd add a decorative piece down the middle.
I'd say that's definitely done using a liner tool and it's not nearly as hard as you think!
I can see doing it with a tool, but.......in order to get nice definition of the pleats, you'd need a decently thick layer of soft BC under a thick-ish layer of fondant and you'd have to be very quick so as not to tear the fondant or get elephant skin.
I think that doing it as a pleated panel allows for less BC and a thinner piece of fondant, as well as more working time. Also, working on a firmer surface allows for crisper pleats.
But in the long run, whatever way that works for YOU is the best way.

A Godzillus lived in Cincinnati 450 million years ago
Citizens of Cincinnati, be grateful that none of you were alive 450 million years ago, because if you were, you'd have to deal with a monstrous Godzillus. Not a Godzilla, but a Godzillus, and an amateur paleontologist has just dug up a fossil of one of these fearsome creatures.
It does sort of just look like a rock-colored lump, but paleontologists affiliated with the University of Cincinnati say that they've found something very big and very weird. According to the guy who dug this thing up, "imagine a saguaro cactus with flattened branches and horizontal stripes in place of the usual vertical stripes. My personal theory is that it stood upright, with branches reaching out in all directions similar to a shrub. The upper-most branch would have towered nine feet high."
So yeah, it sounds like this mystery thing is more of a plant than an animal, and the fact that it's half a billion years old makes that a virtual certainty. That long ago, proto-Europe was busy colliding with North America, and the rest of the world was covered with continents and microcontinents that don't even exist anymore, like Avalonia, Baltica, and Laurentia. There were no animals (or trees) on land, and under water, fish were just starting to figure out that it was kinda cool to have bones.
Meanwhile, as far as this fossil goes, the anthropologists say that they're "sure it's biological. We just don't know yet exactly what it is," and nobody that they've asked has been able to find anything even remotely similar. Whatever it is, they're thinking of calling it Godzillus, because "like Godzilla, it's a primordial beast that found its way to the modern era." Maybe not quite as scary as a giant radioactive lizard of doom, but I bet if it fell on you or something, it might be at least a little bit annoying.

You see the jerseys every time the Orioles play at Camden Yards, often on boys born 20 years after the man shelved his famous mitt — No. 5. Robinson.
The combination of that name and that number will always stir the souls of those who watched Brooks Robinson make impossible play after impossible play along the third-base line at Memorial Stadium. But even their children and grandchildren, who never glimpsed his magician's act, have heard the stories of Robinson's kindness — the way anybody could run into him at the mall and receive not only an autograph but a few minutes of genial conversation with a Hall of Famer.
On a weekend when the Orioles are close to clinching their first playoff spot in 15 years, it seems fitting that Robinson, perhaps the most purely beloved athlete in Baltimore sports history, will be the last of six legends to have a commemorative sculpture unveiled at Camden Yards.
It wasn't supposed to be that way. Robinson's statue was scheduled to be unveiled in May, but he had to reschedule because he was still weak after suffering a bad fall off a stage in Florida four months earlier. It was the latest in a string of health scares that left fans deeply concerned about the great third baseman.
So when Robinson, 75, walks out to speak before Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox, the scene is sure to be emotional. Not only will he be surrounded by his fellow statue honorees, family members and other teammates. He will speak to a public that is grateful to see him at all.
"I know I'm going to have a hard time getting through it," Robinson said Wednesday, thinking ahead to the feelings that will well inside him.
Former Orioles shortstop Ron Hansen, a close friend since the 1950s, said he has seen a new depth of emotion from Robinson at public appearances in recent years. "We're all getting older," Hansen said. "It's nice to be recognized and to realize that people haven't forgotten all these years later. It's really something special."
The truth is, Robinson prefers not to talk about his health troubles, which have included prostate cancer, an extended hospitalization for an infection related to outpatient surgery and the January fall, in which he broke two bones in his shoulder.
First off, the information is private. But you also get the sense he doesn't want people making a fuss over him.
"I know a lot of people have been concerned about me," he said. "But I'm doing fine. I'm on the way back."
He has returned to signing autographs at memorabilia shows and has attended the sculpture unveilings for Jim Palmer, Eddie Murray and Cal Ripken Jr. (All three, along with Frank Robinson and Earl Weaver, are expected to attend Saturday's ceremony, which begins at 5:15 p.m.)
The key, Robinson said, is limiting himself to one or two significant undertakings a day. If he tries to push beyond that, he wears himself out.
Palmer said there's no question that thoughts of mortality will lend a special power to Robinson's ceremony. But he has always been struck by the sincerity of Robinson's bond with fans.
"There is no public persona," Palmer said. "He's just Brooksie — a humble, easy-going, soft-spoken guy. And people understand that he's really like that."
Few athletes inspire poignant thoughts from such a high percentage of fans.
"The Brooks statue unveiling is going to be extremely emotional, because Brooks will be always be the first face of the franchise and held that position for so long," said Baltimore tavern owner Chad Ellis, who has tickets for Saturday's game. "Wait until they run his career retrospective on the Jumbotron. Many grown men will weep."
Tom Keller traveled from North Carolina to attend the weekend homestand.
"Even without his poor health lurking in the background, Brooks' night would probably be the most emotional of all because he was the first great Oriole and affection is the core feeling he inspires in us," said Keller, a Baltimore native who grew up three blocks from Memorial Stadium. "Jim, Earl, Eddie, and Frank, we admire and respect immensely, but there is a certain aloofness that sets them apart from us. Cal we worship because of the other-worldliness of the streak. Brooks has always been closer to us and our hearts."
The statue will actually be the third to honor Robinson. There's one in York, Pa., where Robinson played minor league ball and has owned a share of the independent league York Revolution. And there's one just outside Camden Yards on Washington Boulevard Plaza, which was dedicated last October after a $700,000 fundraising effort by Baltimore businessman Henry Rosenberg.

"Lynx Theatre's Al Germani's excellent,
unconventional taste has resulted in
some of the best, most challenging
theater in town.
- Don Braunagel,
SD Magazine
"Germani [is a] theatre artist with the kind of commitment to social relevance, poetic language and artistic innovation that's all too rare."
- San Diego Union Tribune
"[In Dickinson] director Al Germani creates a full, specific world out of nearly nothing. Every movement is carefully thought out to tell the story; it is some of the best staging I've seen in a long time. The movement is fluid, his placement of the actors absolutely right on, and for a play which works on such a simple level, he manages to achieve moments of absolute breathtaking magic. You know, you never truly appreciate a director's contribution until you see someone do it so right. "

"Best Performance Group" SD CityBeat
Best Of San Diego 2008
If the theater is the living archive of the experiences that got us to where we are, then San Diego's Lynx Theatre has it knocked as a major contributor to that legacy. Artistic Director Al Germani, a psychoanalyst by trade, has a solid real-life take on the best and worst of the characters in the plays he chooses, and his methods of coaxing those traits from his casts are nothing short of extraordinary.
SD Union-Tribune 2007 "Innovative Artists To Watch" List
Lynx Theatre's Artistic Director Al Germani
"Direct Hit" - Dickinson is the latest example of Al Germani's directorial insight. As a psychotherapist, he's got the tools for character exploration at his command—the twist is that he also uses those tools to dissect the psyches of his personnel as they take on the people they portray. With Dickinson, the result is some of the best experimental theater you'll ever have the pleasure of experiencing.
- Martin Jones Westlin SD CityBeat
SD Magazine 2007 "Best of San Diego" Awards
'Best Progressive Theatre'
"Al Germani and his Lynx Performance Theatre are alive and well and doing what they do best, presenting visceral, stimulating theater that matters"
- Charlene Baldridge La Jolla Village News
[In Sarah Kane's Crave] Director Al Germani, a psychotherapist, is perfectly attuned to the language, pace and emotion of the piece, which he has conducted with the rigor of a demanding symphonic maestro. - Pat Launer, KPBS Radio
In "Crave" Al Germani allowed for Kane's musical, internal cacophony to sing with his exact direction and pacing. He modulated multi-levels of anxiety and allowed for orgasmic moments with just a pause. He allowed primal breathing to explode within each one of his actors and plucked musical chords of great depth.
The sum of this experience is intoxicating. This dramatic journey into a fragmented self is nothing less than brilliant.

Morning Walkthrough: What slippage, again?
The Celtics have gotten rid of their morning walkthrough, but that doesn't mean we have to. Here are a few Celtics links, and maybe even an NBA link or two, to help wake you up and get you focused for the day.
John Denton, OrlandoMagic.com – "'People were quick to jump on the whole age thing, but there were some health problems there,' Van Gundy said. 'Garnett was coming back off a major leg injury. I think he was hurt; it doesn't look now like there was any slippage. Paul Pierce had the bad foot. I think a lot of what people were calling slippage was health-related,' Van Gundy continued. 'All I know is what I'm watching, not only in the Cleveland series but in the Miami series, does not look like a team on the decline. If (the media) thought they looked like they were on the decline, I would like you to watch film with me and show me the signs of decline that you see.'"
Kirk Minihane, WEEI – "Cleveland Cavaliers forward Leon Powe, a member of the Celtics' 2008 championship team, said that the 2010 Boston group is playing 'a bit better' than the team that he won a title with. 'They are playing as well as that team, a bit better,' said Powe following Boston's Game 6 series-clinching win over Cleveland on Thursday. 'They are clicking on all cylinders right now. First series against Miami, they did pretty well. The team [in 2008] needed seven games in the first round. This series they were great. They are locked into that championship defense that everyone is accustomed to.'"
Julian Benbow, Boston Globe – "His reward for surviving the six-game Texas death match? A paint battle with the well-rested Dwight Howard, the pseudo 7-footer known to devour rebounds, swat away layups and floaters, and crush opposing big men like a movie monster does to small cities. The Magic haven't played since finishing a sweep against Atlanta last Monday. 'It's just the playoffs,' Perkins said. 'It's not going to get any easier. It's tough going into the next round, but that's what I'm here for, to be a defensive stopper on the block and guard those big guys. I can't run from the challenge. It's there, so I've just got to accept it.' [...] 'With [Howard], he's more athletic,' Perkins said. 'Not stronger, but more athletic. That's the difference. I kind of use my weight against him. He kind of uses his athleticism. So it's going to be interesting.'"
Steve Bulpett, Boston Herald – "And Howard is coming in with a head of steam, having made 27-of-32 shots (84.4 percent . . . yes, 84.4) against Atlanta. 'I can't worry about that,' said Perkins. 'I've just got to worry about going out and playing my defense. Obviously everybody gets better over the summertime and throughout the season, so I just can't worry about if he's going to hit shots or anything like that. At the end of the day it's just about competing – going out there and having heart, going out there just to try to get the job done the best way you can.' Said Glen Davis of Howard, 'He does look better. He's been working on his game. I think Patrick (Ewing, Magic assistant coach) has been helping him out a lot. I've been watching him. He's been doing a great job of playing and executing. But I feel like me and Perk and Rasheed are three guys that can really guard him, so we're going to try to do our best to limit him.'"
Dan Duggan, Boston Herald – "Rivers stayed the course, and his team followed. And because of that, the Celtics have taken another step toward filling that blank banner hanging in Waltham. 'The only thing that's going to make our season is winning a championship,' Paul Pierce said. 'We have those types of goals around here, where you look at some teams that get moral victories for hanging around in a series or winning a series, not here in Boston. We strive and we get excited when we put that banner up.'"
Chris Forsberg, ESPNBoston – "'One thing we don't lack, and that's confidence,' Garnett said. 'Even when we were playing like crap and trying to get our chemistry problems together in our locker room and all the things that come with the season. I thought we hit our stride at the right time. We're a veteran team, we understand that when it's time to lock in as a group, as a unit, I think we did just that. I think if anything, the experience has totally taken over versus anything else. We're not celebrating. I think, if anything, that everyone is going to go home and relax with their families, obviously. Get ready for [the Orlando scouting report]. We get these massive books, and you've got to know your coverages and all the schemes that come with it. So [Friday] it's back in the classroom, getting ready.'"
Brian Schmitz, Orlando Sentinel – "'Over the course of the season, I've been fortunate to be healthy and can honestly say I've gotten stronger,' Garnett said after the game. 'And the playoffs come around, it's time to step it up another notch, and that's all I've been trying to do — nothing more, nothing less — it's no secret. I take care of my body. I'm a workaholic when it comes to trying to better myself and nothing's changed, so it's paying off.' Lewis said the best plan against KG is to 'keep the ball away from him or keep him as far as away from the basket as possible.' Lewis said he expects Garnett to make a difference this time. 'It's definitely a big difference,' he said. 'He's the anchor of their defense, a great offensive low-post player. Not only that, he's a good defender and shot-blocker. Kevin was somebody they were missing last year and it's not going to be easy to beat them again this year like we did.'"
Jarrod N. Rudolph, Boston Globe – "Jameer Nelson has silenced his critics and created a fan base, and Rajon Rondo has taken over the floor for the Celtics. With a return trip to the NBA Finals on the line, Nelson will try his best to put out Rondo's fire and stop the budding star from leading his team to the championship. 'He's a beast, man,' Vince Carter said of Rondo. 'He's playing with a lot of confidence. He's controlling the game and running the team. He's earned respect around the league.' [...] 'I think [Rondo] has a lot more time and experience under his belt,' Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. 'He's clearly become their leader. You watch him on the floor, he's directing traffic and his confidence level is very high. I don't think it's any one or two things he's doing differently, he's just continued to get better and better.'"
Dan Duggan, Boston Herald – "'Tom Thibodeau has been great (in) both series,' [Tony] Allen said of the C's assistant coach and defensive whiz. 'Every time I listened to him, I was able to stay on the floor. So I'm listening to Tom Thibodeau as much as I can.' Allen also has found his niche on offense, filling the lanes in transition and awaiting passes from Rajon Rondo. 'I'm enjoying playing with him,' Allen said. 'I just have to read him and be ready to catch the ball. He's great.'"
Josh Robbins, Orlando Sentinel – "'Some people are calling it a major upset,' Van Gundy said. 'I don't know how a team that's essentially the same two years removed from winning a championship and is healthy pulls a major upset. But I think it's because of the whole LeBron James thing. There's a lot of people in the media that can't fathom him getting beaten.' The reporters clustered around Van Gundy laughed. 'No,' he said, 'I mean that. I just think there's a lot of people that just [say], 'Oh, if you've got LeBron James, you're gonna win every night, and no matter who else is on the other team it's a major upset.' Call it an upset if you want because they were the underdog, but Boston's pretty [darn] good.'"
Julian Benbow, Boston Globe – "Finley has been on two teams that dashed James's title hopes — the Celtics and the 2007 Spurs, who swept Cleveland in the Finals. 'Great players will win a game or two, great teams win series,' Finley said. 'In my opinion we were the better team in the series. It was a tough series for him. He needed some help. Not just one or two games, but some consistent help. When you have that, it takes a little bit of pressure off the superstar.'"

Prosecutors: Boy beaten to death for wetting pants
ANNISTON, Ala. (AP) — Prosecutors in eastern Alabama say a 5-year-old boy was killed because he wet his pants.
Calhoun County District Attorney Brian McVeigh told WBMA-TV Wednesday (http://bit.ly/15vVtI8 ) that Gregory Caver of Anniston was beaten until he was unconscious Friday, and later died at a hospital in Birmingham.
The boy's 28-year-old mother India Kimble and her 26-year-old boyfriend Vonta McClellan have been charged with capital murder in the boy's death.
Authorities have said McClellan was accused of also abusing his 7-year-old daughter and was arrested. Officials have said he was in jail when he was served with a warrant for the boy's death.
Investigators have said Kimble fled authorities and was picked up by U.S. Marshals in Mobile. She has since been returned to Anniston.
It's unclear if the two have attorneys.
