- Contest for the next gen preacher
THE NEXT GEN PREACHER SEARCH is a unique outreach to young Christian students in high schools and colleges across the country who have an interest in preaching and teaching. Designed to encourage and inspire young people towards the ministry of God's word, it is an open invitation for students interested in preaching and teaching to submit a 5-minute video of their speaking for review and critique. These videos will be viewed by a panel of gifted and experienced preachers for feedback and coaching. Forty of the submissions will be chosen as semi-finalists to receive special training and support. These top caliber young speakers will be given a "mentor preacher" from among the ministers who reviewed the submissions. Those mentors will give them support and guidance over the next 6 months as well as coaching in their preaching and teaching. In January or February of 2015, the semi-finalists will be invited to a two and a half day training event where they will be will be given more coaching and help from a team of preacher coaches including Jeff Walling, Trevor Devage and other gifted Bible teachers. They will not only coach the students in presentation skills, but they will encourage them in their pursuit of a preaching ministry career. At the conclusion of the event the students will be videoed giving a second lesson. From these 40 presenters, four will be chosen as finalists who will present their lessons before over 25,000 Christians at gatherings across the country including venues like the 2015 North American Christian Convention, the Pepperdine Bible Lectures and the Winterfest conferences in Tennessee and Texas.

- Fluent in Spanish?
I am the pastor of First Christian Church Mountain City (Bill Greer's home church). We are interested in starting a ministry to the Spanish speaking population in our county. There are a significant number in our county. The only church that has a Spanish ministry at the moment is the Catholic Church. Because of this many of the protestant believers are going to the Catholic Church. We want to offer an option at our church for Spanish speaking Christians.
I wanted to inquire as to any students you may have at Milligan who are fluent in Spanish and interested in getting some experience in Spanish ministry. We are unsure of the compensation at this point as this is a new ministry for our church. We would like to enter into a discussion with an interested student. The hope would be that this would become a full time associate position as the ministry grows and becomes self-sustaining.
If you have any interested students could you pass this information on to them. We would like to begin this ministry no later than this fall.

- Vintage Prayer at Hopwood (3/29)
The Milligan community is invited to:
Vintage Prayer:
Prayer in the Gospel of Luke
Led by Dr. Bonnie Thurston
Hopwood Christian Church
Saturday, March 29
9:00 a.m.
A common sight on the road today are new cars that resemble the vintage ones of yesterday, such as the Ford Mustang, the Chevy Camaro, and of course the VW Bug. The value of the new is based on the value of the old. Much the same can be said about our prayer life – the prayers of today can gain a deeper significance when they are influenced by the prayers of yesterday. Join us as Dr. Bonnie Thurston helps us make these very connections with the themes of prayer throughout the Gospel of Luke in order to inform and enrich our prayer life. The atmosphere will be relaxed, the coffee will be fresh, and the fellowship will be warm and low-key (no mixers, we promise).
Through the years, Bonnie Thurston has written or edited 20 books and over one-hundred articles. Her works include: The Spiritual Landscape of Mark, For God Alone: A Primer on Prayer, and Belonging to Borders: A Sojourn in the Celtic Tradition. "Whether reflecting upon her West Virginia mountains, the troubled streets of Jerusalem, or the quiet depths of the human heart, Bonnie Thurston explores the contours of sacred space with the eye of a scholar and the heart of a poet," said Timothy Ross, minister at Hopwood Christian Church in Milligan College.
9:00 a.m. Coffee and doughnuts
9:20 Session I: General overview and discussion

Exploring all the Angles of Short Term Missions
60% of mission dollars in the United States now go toward short-term mission trips. Local churches are sending youth and adults around the world to build houses, run VBS programs, treat people in medical clinics, and support long-term missionaries in hundreds of different ways. If done well, these short mission trips can be a great blessing to missionaries, churches, and the unchurched. If done poorly, they can create all kinds of problems.
Veteran missionary Dr. Doug Priest who now serves as the Executive Director of Christian Missionary Fellowship will present three messages on Short Term Missions: Exploring All the Angles at Emmanuel Christian Seminary at 11:00 AM on April 1, 2, and 3. Anyone interested in growing in their understanding of what it means to do short term mission trips well is welcome to come. (423) 461-1522.

- Christmas concerts SATURDAY and SUNDAY
*SFP credit Saturday only
This year, audiences will have two opportunities to experience the beautiful sounds of the season at the annual Milligan College community Christmas concert on Dec. 7 and 8.
Both performances begin at 7:30 p.m. in Milligan's Mary B. Martin Auditorium of Seeger Memorial Chapel. Doors open at 6:45 p.m.
"Every year, we perform in front of a packed house," said Dr. Kellie Brown, chairperson of Milligan's music area. "We decided that it was time to add a second evening to accommodate our growing audience and ensure that we have plenty of parking and seats available for all of our guests who enjoy this annual tradition.
"Of course, we also hope that our guests will appreciate now having two options to attend the concert during the busy holiday season."
The identical performances will feature choirs, orchestra, brass choir and the organ in the beautifully decorated Seeger Chapel. The evenings also will include a carol sing-along and will conclude with a moving candle-lighting and singing of "Silent Night."
"The Christmas concert is a rare chance for our choirs and instrumentalists to perform together and share the familiar and sacred sounds of the season," Brown said. "Whether guests come on Saturday or Sunday, they will enjoy the same program and the festive and uplifting Christmas music they have come to expect from our musicians."
The concerts are free, but an offering with a suggested donation of $5 will be taken. Donations collected on Saturday will benefit Milligan's music program, while Sunday's donations will go to the Niswonger Children's Hospital.

Posted on November 15 by Milligan College | ALL Announcements, Campus Life, Campus Ministry, Events, This and That - Dr. Farmer faculty lecture – TUESDAY
Dr. Craig Farmer will deliver a lecture, titled "The Gospel of John in the Reformation of the Sixteenth Century," on Tuesday, Nov. 19, at 7 p.m. in Milligan College's Hyder Auditorium, located in the Science Building. The lecture is free and open to the public.
Farmer serves as professor of history and humanities at Milligan. His lecture is a summary of the research he has done for a book manuscript that will appear as a part of a series titled "The Reformation Commentary on Scripture."
The book presents a continuous commentary on the gospel of John by translating excerpts from sources authored by 16th-century theologians. The excerpts represent theologians from the Reformed, Lutheran, Catholic and Radical traditions. The book is scheduled for release in March 2014 through InterVarsity Press.
"My lecture will explore Reformation exegesis of the fourth gospel," Farmer said. "I will be arguing that the Reformers were careful, critical commentators on John, often much more traditional than has been previously thought. While these theologians are quite conversant with the antecedent exegetical tradition, they are also influenced by the new humanist methods that stressed philology, grammar and source criticism."
Farmer also is the author of "The Gospel of John in the Sixteenth Century: The Johannine Exegesis of Wolfgang Musculus" (Oxford, 1997).
He joined the Milligan faculty in 1993. He has a Ph.D. in the history of Christianity from Duke University (Durham, N.C.), a master's degree in divinity from The University of Chicago (Chicago, Ill.), and a bachelor's degree in religion from Haverford College (Haverford, Pa.). His other areas of concentration include medieval and renaissance history, church history, history of Biblical interpretation and Islam.

The Milligan College Concert Choir is an auditioned mixed chorus of 43 students with a varied repertoire that includes classics, spirituals, hymn arrangements and multicultural music from around the globe. The students in the choir represent a variety of majors, including a number of students who are music majors or minors and who plan careers in music education or ministry.
The choir upholds a long tradition as an outstanding college choir. At the invitation of the president, the choir sang at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., and toured England, with special performances in Coventry Cathedral and in the Civic Centre of the City of Birmingham.
More recently, the concert choir sang at the Conference on World Evangelism-National Missionary Convention and the Tennessee State Convention of the American Choral Directors' Association. Also, the choir frequently collaborates with the Symphony of the Mountains, the Johnson City Symphony Orchestra and the Milligan College Orchestra.

The Milligan College Orchestra performs throughout East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia and collaborates frequently with professional ensembles and arts organizations, including The Civic Chorale, the Johnson City Symphony Orchestra, the East Tennessee Regional Symphony, Mountain Empire Children's Choir Academy and the City Youth Ballet. In addition, it is the pit orchestra for various opera and musical productions at Milligan and serves local churches in ministry. The orchestra also champions new works and has performed the world premieres of numerous pieces including "Three Genres" by John Grubb and "Genesis" by internationally renowned composer Kenton Coe.
The orchestra is under the direction of Dr. Kellie Brown, associate professor of music. Brown has been a member of the Milligan music faculty since 1998 and serves as chair of the music department, director of the strings program and conductor of Milligan's orchestra. She is a frequent clinician and performer throughout the country and serves as the assistant conductor of the Johnson City Symphony Orchestra and assistant concertmaster for the Symphony of the Mountains.

- Heard Mentality/Heritage concert
Milligan College's a cappella groups, Heritage and Heard Mentality, will present a joint concert on Saturday, May 4, at 7:30 p.m. in Milligan's McGlothlin-Street Theatre of the Gregory Center for the Liberal Arts. The concert is free and open to the public.
Heritage is Milligan's premier traveling ensemble. They have sung for many churches, community and civic groups, and regularly represent the college around the country. Noah DeLong, assistant professor of music, serves as the group's director.
Heritage members include Nate Andrew, Colin Blowers, Ben Davenport, Carshala Davis, Lauren Holt, Lindsey Kyker, Tyler Luttrell and Erin Raines. Nathan Dickerson provides vocal percussion.
Heard Mentality is an all-male quartet directed by Dr. Charlotte Anderson, assistant professor of the practice of music at Milligan. The quartet began with mostly barbershop and gospel, and they now also do jazz, be-bop, some early music and traditional men's glee.
The men of Heard Mentality are Joshua T. Crawford, James Douglas, Gabriel Rees, Matthew Rees and Tim Wood.
"Both Heard Mentality and Heritage are a cappella groups, meaning they sing without any instrumental accompaniment," DeLong said. "A cappella singing has long been popular on college campuses across the country, and interest has only grown in recent years with the success of the TV show 'The Sing-Off.' The songs in this concert will show how diverse and wide-ranging this kind of music can be."
The first half of the concert will feature each group performing favorite sacred pieces. Heritage selections include "O Sifuni Mungu" (All Creatures of Our God and King), "Amazing Grace," "Our God" and "Be Ye Glad."
Heard Mentality will sing "Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God," "Ev'ry Time I Feel the Spirit," and "E'en So, Lord Jesus, Quickly Come."
The second half of the concert turns to different genres of secular pieces, from barbershop to Broadway and from jazz to contemporary pop music. Highlights from Heard Mentality will include "Hello Ma Baby," "Orange-Colored Sky," "In the Still of the Night," and "Signed, Sealed, Delivered."
Heritage will perform "Here Comes the Sun," "Bring Him Home," "And So it Goes" and "Chili con Carne."
Finally, the concert will close with both groups performing together. The combined groups will perform an arrangement of "Fix You," originally recorded by Coldplay, and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," written and recorded by U2.

- Leaders in Christian Service convo
Milligan to recognize leaders in Christian service
MILLIGAN COLLEGE, TN (March 20, 2013) — Milligan College will recognize 13 local leaders who have demonstrated servant leadership in their careers and community at the college's annual Leaders in Christian Service program on Tuesday, April 2, at 11 a.m. in Milligan's Mary B. Martin Auditorium in Seeger Memorial Chapel. The service is free and open to the public.
"The purpose of this program is to provide examples of people who are doing an outstanding job of integrating their faith with their profession," said Milligan President Bill Greer. "We see in these individuals wonderful examples of what servant leadership is all about, and what it can look like on a daily basis in a variety of professions."
The keynote speaker is Dr. George Karnes, a dentist and founder of the TMJ Treatment Clinic in Johnson City, Tenn. Karnes was a Leaders in Christian Service honoree in 2004.
He received his D.D.S. from the University of Illinois and is an Air Force veteran. Eighteen years ago, Karnes moved to Johnson City because he felt God leading him to this area. Through articles in the newspaper and discussions with members of the community, he learned a dental clinic was needed to serve the homeless and indigent. To meet this need, Karnes helped start the Keystone Dental Clinic, serving as the first president of the board and volunteering once a month in the clinic. For the past 24 years, Karnes also has led dental mission trips to Mexico.
He is a member of the Rotary Noon Club and has been honored as a Paul Harris Fellow. As a member of Central Baptist Church, Karnes serves as a deacon, a Bible Class leader and is a well-known greeter.
The 2013 Leaders in Christian Service honorees include:
Larry Calhoun, of Johnson City, is the founding dean of the East Tennessee State University Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy. He attends First Christian Church.
Tabatha Gonzales, of Johnson City, works for Good Samaritan Ministries. She attends Taylor United Methodist Church.
Jim Heaton, of Johnson City, is retired from Johnson City Schools. He attends First United Methodist Church.
Jeff and Jennifer Keller, of Johnson City, attend Central Baptist Church. Jeff works with the Social Security Administration; Jennifer is employed at Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell and Berkowitz.
Ann O'Quinn, of Johnson City, is a private piano teacher. She attends Munsey Memorial United Methodist Church.
Lynn Parker, of Church Hill, is retired from Eastman Chemical Company. He attends First Baptist Church.
Tom and Donna Seaton, of Johnson City, are the owners of The Firehouse restaurant. They attend Grace Fellowship Church.
Mark Sitter, of Johnson City, works at VinTech Manufacturing. He attends St. Elizabeth Church.
Phillip Timp, of Bristol, Va., works with The Beth Foundation. He attends Central Presbyterian Church.
David Torgerson, of Gray, is retired from Washington County Schools. He attends Central Church of Christ.
Thomas Torbett, of Gray, is retired from the Appalachian Bible Company. He attends Westminster Presbyterian Church.

Aptly named the 'Hound Dog,' Dogma London's Elvis dog collar lets dog owners express their undying enthusiasm for the Memphis native as they walk their favorite household companions down their local streets.
Dogma London also features an eclectic collection of vibrant dog collars on their website to satisfy all dog owners' canine-identification needs.

Family Not Discouraged By Italy Cruise Ship Accident
POSTED: Monday, January 16, 2012 - 11:23pm
UPDATED: Thursday, January 19, 2012 - 2:02pm
EL PASO- An El Paso family that was on a cruise at the same time as the cruise liner accident off the coast of Italy talked to Newschannel 9 Monday.
The Quintana family spent six days on their cruise, traveling from Puerto Rico to the southern Caribbean Sea.
They heard about the Tuscany accident on Friday from people in their ship's café and later they saw pictures on the news.
"It wasn't until later that afternoon when we saw on the news of this cruise ship on it's side. That was a real surprise to us," said father Henry Quintana.
Still, The Quintana family said they're not discouraged from going on another cruise in the future.
"You can't stop what you love doing just because of one incident," Quintana said. "If that was the case, then I wouldn't drive anymore, but it's very safe... This was a rare incident that occurred."
The family said before their cruise left the port, the crew showed them where to find life boats and flotation vests and how to use them. They also learned what to do in emergency situations.
"When you go on these trips, they're really careful and safe," Quintana said. "They go through a drill before you leave."
The Quintana family said this was their fifth cruise and they actually prefer cruises over other kinds of travel.
"I think cruising is terrific," Quintana said. "We would rather take a cruise than go on another vacation because it's a lot more fun."
Comments News Comments
I am so glad that incidents like this will not stop people from still taking cruises or least not this family. I really like Mr. Quintana's comment, "you can't stop doing what you love doing because of one incident." And he is right. Driving is essential in many cases, and with so many accidents you still can't stop. Not that you love it, but it is essential. Thank you for that report. We need to see the other side of incidents like this.
So a family on a cruise in the Atlantic/Carribean is interviewed as to their thoughts on the disaster in Italy ?
Are you kidding? How dumb is that? No wonder your station hovers around last place in the ratings
I agree with you John, what relevance does this family on a cruise in the Atlantic have anything to do with the people who were actually on the cruise in Italy? This was a dumb story KTSM, can your reporters please focus on some real issues in the community!! And spell check would be nice.....as I usually always comment about!!

FIRST: To act for me in any way that I could act with respect to the following matters, as each of them is defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 523.24:
(To grant to the attorney-in-fact any of the following powers, make a check or "x" on the line in front of each power being granted. You may, but need not, cross out each power not granted. Failure to make a check or "x" on the line in front of the power will have the effect of deleting the power unless the line in front of the power of (N) is checked or x-ed.)
(A) | real property transactions; | |
I choose to limit this power to real property in County, Minnesota, described as follows: | ||
(Use legal description. Do not use street address.) | ||
(If more space is needed, continue on the back or on an attachment.) | ||

My attorney-in-fact need not render an accounting unless I request it or the accounting is otherwise required by Minnesota Statutes, section 523.21. |
My attorney-in-fact must render | ||
(Monthly, Quarterly, Annual) | ||
accountings to me or | ||
(Name and Address) | ||

The foregoing instrument was acknowledged before me this ..... day of .........., ........, | ||
by | ||
(Insert Name of Principal) | ||

This instrument was drafted by: | Specimen Signature of Attorney(s)-in-Fact | |
(Notarization not required) | ||
Any of the powers of the form in subdivision 1 or a form prepared under section 523.231 which is not checked or X-ed is withheld by the principal from the attorney-in-fact unless the power of (N) of the form in subdivision 1 or a comparable provision in a form prepared under section 523.231 is checked or X-ed.
Except for a form prepared under section 523.231, to constitute a "statutory short form power of attorney," as this phrase is used in this chapter the wording and content of the form in subdivision 1 must be duplicated exactly and with no modifications, parts First, Second, and Third must be properly completed, and the signature of the principal must be acknowledged. Failure to name a successor attorney-in-fact, to provide an expiration date, or to complete part Fourth does not invalidate the power as a statutory short form power of attorney. A power of attorney that does not satisfy the requirements of this subdivision or a form prepared under section 523.231, but purports to be a statutory short form power of attorney, may constitute a common law power of attorney that incorporates by reference the definitions of powers contained in section 523.24; however, a party refusing to accept the authority of the common law attorney-in-fact is not liable under section 523.20.
Use of a street address instead of a legal description under the power of (A) in part First of the statutory short form power of attorney invalidates the power of (A) for all real property transactions, but does not affect the powers of (B) to (M), nor does it affect the power of (N) except with respect to real property transactions.
All powers enumerated in section 523.24 may be legally performed by an attorney-in-fact acting on behalf of a principal.

Arizona is restricting food stamp use for adult-oriented businesses
Food stamp rules may become more strict.
Phoenix Business Journal reported that State Rep. Kate Brophy McGee is sponsoring a measure that would prohibit adult-oriented businesses from accepting food stamps and debit cards from the federal program.
With the new measure, businesses that refuse to follow the rules could lose certain licenses, such as their liquor license.
The new state bill is a part of a nationwide movement requiring states to implement prohibitions on food stamps being used at adult businesses, with a five percent funding penalty on states that refuse to stifle their food stamp rules.

Dry Clean Conservation TechniqueAll of the daguerreotypes in the University Archives were dry cleaned. The conservator removed the daguerreotype from its housing and cleaned the plate using compressed air from an ear syringe, which loosened and removed any debris from the surface of the plate. The cover glass was cleaned, the plate and glass were resealed, and the preserver (if there was one) was replaced. The package was then put back into its case, or if the case had been lost a new enclosure was made. Despite the fact that the two daguerreotypes featured here number among the earliest examples in the University Archives, both have survived in very good condition. Each retains its original case and required only the minimum conservation treatment. |
This daguerreotype, possibly the earliest example in the University Archives, has previously been thought to be of the Class of 1843. It presents many puzzles to the present-day viewer, however. No definitive identifications have been made for the 35 sitters or the daguerreotypist and the building in which the men sat for their portrait is unknown, but we may speculate. There were 63 members of the Class of 1843, and at that time there were seven buildings on campus - only three of which had rooms large enough for 35 people; two of these were Whig and Clio Hall, home of the two debating societies on campus. This image may present members of one of these societies. Some of the men appear to be older, and may be faculty members or tutors. The rest are undoubtedly students, their faces young and expectant as they face the camera. The photographer may have been George Prosch, a New York daguerreotypist known to have worked in Princeton during the early 1840s, taking portraits of students, faculty, and Princeton Borough residents, as well as assisting Professor of Natural Philosophy Joseph Henry with his experiments using daguerreotype plates. |
Double portrait of George Macintosh Maclean (1806-1886, Class of 1824) and his son John Maclean (1837-1870, Class of 1858), ca. 1842-1845. Sixth plate daguerreotype. Photographer unknown. |
George Macintosh Maclean was the son of John Maclean, the Scottish physician who joined the faculty of the College of New Jersey (as Princeton University was known until 1896) in 1795 as Professor of Chemistry and Natural History. George's older brother, John Maclean (Class of 1816), was president of Princeton from 1854 until 1868. This double portrait is one of three in the Princeton University Archives for which father and son posed. |

Colorado backyard terror
Lakewood, CO (KUSA) — Whatever was happening at 1250 Kline Street in Lakewood, Colorado went quietly unnoticed for years.
Neighbors say there was no indication of anything unusual until Lakewood police made a bizarre discovery.
Officers are investigating how suspected human remains and objects of occult worship ended up in a tool shed.
Police found an altar complete with candles, animal bones, animal skulls, even a machete.
Some items, including a skull mask with a black hood, were still laying in the backyard on Monday evening.

Right from the opening, punchy notes early of 'Alive' the signs are that Front Runners have this whole house malarkey just right. The opening notes gather in speed as filters briefly slide in, building everything up into the chorus. The composition of the track is very much in keeping with traditional house music, emphasis is on electro chords that are built up and sped up towards each passing chorus.
The track really gets interesting as it approaches the mid-way point where Front Runners really show what they can do. A complete sonisphere of winding electronic notes, catchy rhythms and gentle melodies collide together like falling stars, creating a really uplifting and powerful few minutes of music that will certainly keep fans of the original version happy.
'Alive' is remixed in a unique way, almost to perfection. What you get with a lot of remixes is that the artist doing the remixing is so intent on putting their own spin on the song that the original becomes completely lost in translation. However, with this single the remixing is planned to perfection, giving Front Runners the perfect chance to put their own spin on a track that does not completely ignore the specifics of the original. Essentially, it adds something new and looks at the track differently to the original.
As if Front Runners' individual and progressive brand of electronic house music is not something to get excited about alone, the fact that the two members of the group produce their own music and even perform hardcore definitely is! This version of 'Alive' proves that house music can be popular again and that can only be good news for the electronic music genre. For the two men behind Front Runners, it shows that the world really is their oyster!

Summary: What educational purposes should the school seek to attain, and what educational experiences can be provided that are likely to achieve these purposes? Rather than literally answering these questions of curriculum and instruction, Tyler develops a rationale for studying them, and suggests procedures for formulating answers and evaluating programs of study.

The four sections of the book deal with ways of formulating, organizing, and evaluating the educational objectives that have been chosen for the curriculum. Tyler emphasizes the fact that curriculum planning is a continuous cyclical process, involving constant replanning, redevelopment, and reappraisal. Substitution of such an integrated view of an instructional program for hit-or-miss judgment as the basis for curriculum development cannot but result in an increasingly effective curriculum. ...show less

These days it's easier than ever to communicate with people. We've got high-speed internet connections (wireless & otherwise), mobile phones, pagers, fax machines. We can talk at the touch of a button, across cities, countries, the entire world. Furthermore, communication through these digital protocols is almost instant, fairly cheap and,if you want it to be,completely private and hidden. While advancements in digital communication are, on the whole, a great thing, they do have their down sides. One disadvantage is that cheating husbands, wives (or, for that matter, girlfriends or boyfriends) can communicate with their private lovers away from the prying eyes and ears of their trusting partners. It happens every day: thousands upon thousands of text messages are sent by disloyal men and women to those they're sleeping with behind their real partners' backs. Back in the day, the only way a guy or girl could arrange a clandestine meeting would be over a hard-line (either a house phone or a pay phone). That meant the cheater would either have to make risky calls from the home of their unsuspecting spouses, or secretly take a trip to a local call box and do it from there. Both of these methods of communication could often be spotted by the betrayed party quite easily. But that's now a thing of the past. It's now a cinch for a cheater to send messages to their secret lovers from work, a locked bathroom, even from under the bed covers while their current, faithful partner sleeps quietly and 100% unaware of what's going on just 6 inches away from them. It's true; things are easier for cheaters these days, but not that easy. Just as all others kinds of cheats, be it a card shark, a conman or a computer hacker, leave signs of their dishonesty behind, so do disloyal partners. And looking for the right signs, in the right places, is the absolute best way of knowing for sure if you can trust your partner. Okay, you know now how easy it is for cheaters to communicate with their secret partners using digital communication. But what are the signs, the indications, the clues of this kind of activity? Let's take a look: 1. Computers and Internet… Continued on next page >> Pages: 12 Read more... |

Legal Follies return Jan. 21-22
From press release
The original Legal Follies will return to Sullivan Center, 118 N. Main St., Friday and Saturday, Jan. 21-22. The event will benefit the Winnebago County Bar Foundation.
It has been a couple of years since Prairie State Legal Services decided to end the successful run of the Legal Follies. The moment that decision was made, the lawyers and judges who wrote and performed the Follies agreed they wanted to continue the tradition. Annual meetings were held to determine how and when the show would return.
The result of those meetings was the formation of the Rockford Legal Follies, an Illinois not-for-profit corporation that will produce the Legal Follies. Because of the numerous requests from various charities, the Legal Follies will be presented annually with the proceeds benefitting a different charity each year. The initial Legal Follies will benefit the Winnebago County Bar Foundation.
The two-show run promises plenty of laughs and fun as the legal community once again takes aim at local and worldwide current events. The show has also lined up many local politicians and celebrities, but in keeping with the Legal Follies tradition, their identities will remain a surprise until the night of the show. The show will be directed by Jesse Dabson. Jodi Beach is the musical director.
For more details, contact Renee Schroeder of Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP, by calling (815) 490-4921.
From the Dec. 29-Jan. 4, 2011 issue

Mr. Boria is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He was very passionate about my case and I always felt like he had my best interest in mind. My only complaint is on multiple occasions I had asked questions through email and did not receive a response. Even when I followed up and asked why I did not get a response or asked the question again, still nothing. I admit that my questions might not have been the most important to the case, more just curiosity, but I still don't appreciate feeling ignored. But on everything that counts he is very direct and helpful. I would highly recommend using his services.
From the moment I was calling around for advise, I Spoke with Mr. Aaron Boria I was impressed with his knowledge and eagerness to help and answer every question I had. He was awesome from the first call to the verdict received. I am grateful for everything he did and the result of the case. I do believe without him the outcome would of been jail. Thank you Mr. BORIA FOREVER GREATFUL....
I was arrested for OWI (first offense) and was referred to Aaron by a friend.
I was extremely nervous after reading the penalties related to the charge. Aaron got the charge reduced to an Operating While Visually impaired, which saved me a ton of money and allowed me to keep my license on a restricted basis rather than being suspended, which was huge for me because I commute to school 4 days a week. I knew I had good representation at sentencing, but expected to get a severe punishment because of priors I had when I was a teenager. When Aaron came out and told me what the Judge was going to give me, I was absolutely surprised and satisfied with the great results that he negotiated.
He explained everything very well, and made the whole process understandable and easy as could be in that situation. I would absolutely recommend Aaron to family and friends for their legal needs.
Aaron explains everything in plain english and he makes sure the client understands what is going happen. I saw him today and by the end of the business day he gave me great news.
I currently live out of state but had a Misdemeanor Assault and Battery on my record back in Michigan. I never thought much of it before until it started to affect my employment opportunities 8 years later. That's when I did some research and found out that I was eligible for an expungement. I contacted many lawyers in the tri-county area of south east Michigan and was given either outrageous quotes, unintelligible responses or simply an arrogant attitude. Then I got in touch with Mr. Boria who was polite, knowledgeable, fairly priced, upfront and honest. His rate suprisingly fell just a hair over the cheapest I had found with the other 7 lawyers I called. He didn't pretend like it was going to be some quick 3 week process just to pacify me. He was polite and professional. He also assured me that he wouldn't take my money and run if he sincerely felt I didn't have an honest shot at winning my plea. So of course I hired him. From day one he was very consistent with his emails between him and I. Whether he was requesting documents, asking for information, answering my questions or just keeping me posted; he was on the ball. Always patient and always polite, I couldn't have asked to work with such an understanding lawyer. When my court date finally came and I waited by the phone for the call so that I could speak on my behalf with the judge, all I ended up getting was a call from Aaron telling me everything was taken care of and that my expungement was granted! Too easy if you ask me. Both an email copy and hard-copy of the orders were sent to me for my personal records and the rest is history. Now I can finally land the job I'm after without any hangups from my past and I'll always have Mr. Boria to thank. If your considering hiring a lawyer from the southeast Michigan area or even from out of state, I urge you to give Aaron a call. I assure you his professionalism and demeanor is genuinely notable.
Aaron represented me in a probation violation offense. The outcome was a small court fee and no further penalties. I highly recommend Aaron if you are in need of an attorney. Thanks Aaron!!
I found Aaron on the internet. I contacted others but Aaron was very honest! I felt confortable with my choice and We just left court! We won! In Ann Arbor! no points on my driving record. I am very grateful to Aaron and would recomment him highly!!! Call him and he will help!
-Director of Education
Man o Man Aaron is a true fighter please belive me I am critical as we all should be when we hire someone to do a job. Aaron is the man for the job! Very profesional, Smart, knowledgeable, COMPASSIONATE yes he actually cares about you and wants the best for his clients. I had careless driving, no left turn signal, and a no proof of insurance. They was trying to get me on all 3 charges but aaron wasnt having it. Was bumped down to No left turn signal and blocking traffic. I can live with that and was completely satisfied with his work i would reccomend him to anyone. Thanks Aaron!!!
Mr. Boria is a criminal attorney who cares. He listens to your side and guides you through the criminal process with extreme professionalism and knowledge. I highly recommend him for any criminal case!
Mr. Boria represented a friend of mine in a criminal matter. He handled the matter very professionally as well kept us up to date with what was going on. He definitely treated us like family! I highly reccommend Mr. Boria if you have any criminal charges, there is no better lawyer.

Alipay has released the announcer on 25th April ,stating clearly it will not provide bitcoin and other virtual currency with recharging and withdrawing deposit service .Meanwhile ,it doesn't allow to deal in bitcoin recharging code in Taobao .(Alipay is like chinese paypal in China)
Alipay stated that any organizations and individual don't have to use our payment service to bitcoin ,litecoin and other trade recharge ,withdraw deposit and purchase recharging code from now on .If being found ,we will stop all service .
Alipay also emphasized it hasn't provided any bitcoin registration ,trade ,reckoning and outturn service for the third-party ,warning clients to pay attention to bitcoin risk .
At present ,because the third-party payment recharging way has been banned ,Chinese main bitcoin trading platforms –BTC China ,okcoin and huobi.com main provide two CNY recharging ways :transferring accounts by bank and saling recharging code .Alipay may have an effect on the latter .
The vice ceo Ling kang of BTC China said on the interview that Alipay statement will not make a big effect to BTC China .He said ,whether saling BTC recharging code in any way ,it depends on merchants not BTC China .
BTC China also shows thaty 10 online shops sale BTCC recharging code , six is from Taobao .Before releasing the report ,the online shops haven't responed anything to Taobao statement .
In advance ,Taobao has set bitcoin as search unshielded word .After the new rule has been ensured ,saling bitcoin recharging code in Taobao may be more difficult .
Compared with that ,huobi.com may face up to a more difficult problem .
At the beginning of the month ,huobi.com claimed to give up bank transferring accounts way for many banks stopped their service to bitcoin platforms .So if clients want to recharge on the platform ,they must buy recharging card from the third-party online shops .This is the main recharging way in huobi.com .
However ,huobi.com reveals today their online recharging shop still can transfer accounts by Alipay .If Alipay latest policy is confirmed ,the online shops will face up to difficulties ,threating capital inflow on huobi.com .
In addition,central bank of China discussed with some commercial banks and the third-party payment organizations how to prevent bitcoin risk ,hoping to cut off bitcoin trade funds chain completely .
According to the report ,central bank of China demands commercial banks and the third-party payment organizations to express their attitude to the public not to provide any financial service for bitcoin trade ,leading people to be far away from bitcoin trade .Maybe Alipay knows the supervision thought of central bank of China ,so it decided to ban bitcoin completely yesterday night .
Alipay also said it's checking all bitcoin recharging code online shops ,and it will close all of them later .
Remaks: Due to language difference, sometimes people out of China can't know what happened in China quickly. so we are here to make effort to change little, we will translate 3-4 bitcoin news in China to English everyday to help people out of China know what happened and what people thinks about bitcoin in China, If somewhere translate not that good, pls PM us so that we can correct it.

Yesterday I received by post an envelope with seeds for Enkianthus campanulatus and Rhododendron minus, from S. B. in Antigonish NS., with no enclosure.
I've scoured my computer and I just can't figure out why I received this nice prezzie. Is this a very belated secret Santa? More likely it's a trade, and I'd like to honour my half of the trade, but what am I supposed to send? Maybe I should have another morning cup of coffee and wait for the obvious answer to reveal itself to my addled mind. In the meantime, would the kind sender of these seeds please stand up? - Bev |
Follow-Up Postings:
Cold they be from Sharon Bryson's Willow Garden in Antigonish? She was sending free seeds for postage and I just got mine a few days ago. Jeanne |
YES! That's it! I remember sending her an e-mail a couple of months ago and receiving a kind of non-committal reply. Thought nothing more of it. Now this nice surprise! Thanks for the brain-prod. Bev |
