Easter devotions are here! Sign up for our Lent and Easter email devotions.
The Elder's closing greetings echo those of 2 John 12. These greetings show, once again, the high premium placed on Christian love and fellowship. While 3 John does not include the formulaic greeting, "grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ" (2 Jn 3), the simple peace to you, when coupled with the greeting that Gaius is one whom the Elder loves in the truth (v. 1), expresses the same heartfelt prayer. Gaius will have peace as he abides in the truth (v. 1) and shares in the fellowship of love that comes from God and binds believers to one another.

Charlotte officials weigh in on marriage cases
Updated: October 7, 2014 at 3:07 pm
ENGAGE: Write a letter to the editor | Comment on this story
Editorial: Local leaders' silence speaks volumes on historic day
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Some local elected officials issued statements in support equality today and in favor of same-sex marriage. Their statements come as the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments today in a case challenging California's anti-gay Proposition 8, passed in 2008 and banning marriage for gay couples. The court will hear arguments challenging the federal Defense of Marriage Act on Wednesday.
At-large Charlotte City Councilmembers Beth Pickering and Claire Fallon, Mecklenburg County Commission Chairperson Pat Cotham and Mecklenburg County Commissioner Bill James responded to qnotes' request for a statement.
James is konwn for his opposition to LGBT equality, a position from which he didn't back down today.
"My position hasn't changed and won't (regardless of what the Court may or may not decide)," James, a Republican, wrote in an email. "The People of NC have spoken with clarity."
Pickering, Fallon and Cotham, all Democrats, issued statements of support.
"I'm a strong supporter of same-sex marriage," Pickering wrote in an email. "All Americans should be able to marry the one they love and raise a family. It's a pleasure to see couples who've been together for decades be able to fully, publicly, legally declare their commitment to each other. Happy, stable, committed families. I wish this for every American."
"I am for equality for all," Cotham wrote simply.
"All people have the right to happiness with whomever they choose to love," Fallon wrote, also explaining that her longtime support of LGBT equality "has not changed."
Mayor Anthony Foxx was unavailable for comment today, said press secretary Alexander Killeffer. qnotes has asked if he is available for comment on Wednesday. Killeffer said he would look into a statement. At publication, neither the mayor nor Killeffer had responded.
The majority of other local elected officials had not yet responded to the request either, including the city's first and only openly gay or lesbian elected official, Charlotte Councilmember LaWana Mayfield.
Several local officials were outspoken in their opposition to North Carolina's anti-LGBT state constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, passed by voters last May. At the time, few stated publicly that they were also in favor of full marriage equality. President Barack Obama announced his support for same-sex couples' marriage rights on May 9, the day after the state amendment vote.
Local residents are gathering at Uptown's Marshall Park on Tuesday evening for a vigil marking the landmark Supreme Court cases. Follow qnotes on Twitter, @qnotescarolinas, for live updates.

Hang on before you chalk up the Football Championship Subdivision title game as a rematch.
The coaches at North Dakota State and Sam Houston State said Thursday their teams are not carbon copies from a year ago.
''It's two new teams that are playing each other this season,'' Sam Houston coach Willie Fritz said. ''A lot of the offense and defense and kicking game principles are the same, but there are a lot of differences that I can tell from watching the tape.''
The most obvious changes were made with assistant coaches, where NDSU needed to replace its defensive coordinator and the Bearkats brought in practically a new offensive staff. Both units are even better than a year ago.
The Bison, who won last year's game 17-6, will put their top-rated defense against Sam Houston State's No. 2 scoring offense in the Jan. 5 game in Frisco, Texas.
''They are very talented. They've got very good players,'' Fritz said. ''They're quick and fast. They play with great leverage. It's really to...

State report shows safety, security problems in sexual predator treatment program
My former work put me in meetings where these issues at Larned were being discussed and solutions explored. This is not about the SO program as much as it is about the entire facility. No department there is properly staffed. Extreme overtime hours are being worked all over the facility. The whole thing is a nightmare of downward spiraling morale due to constant overtime and low pay for state workers. What's also on the rise: Critical incidents. They don't pay enough, so they can't hire workers away from private industry jobs in towns that don't suck to live in. The result is 1) not enough workers, 2) poorly qualified workers (the kind that slap people around) and runaway morale issues.
This is easy to fix... WITH MONEY. But our governor's policies only help the rich. The rest of us are on our own: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ldrV...

Lawrence Public Library selected for "Super Wi-Fi" pilot
But wasn't one of the biggest failures with FreeNet/Wicked that while the transmission antennas had ample transmission power, the average home WIFI or laptop DIDN'T have the needed power to transmit BACK to the FreeNet antenna? If the library's antenna can't receive a little signal coming from my home, then I don't have a connection, correct?
Someone correct me if this is wrong, but isn't this why FreeNet customers had so many issues?

ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Syria has apologized through the United Nations for the mortar strike which killed five civilians in southeast Turkey on Wednesday and said such an incident would not be repeated, Deputy Prime Minister Besir Atalay said on Thursday.

Over 60 court cases reveal that girls as young as 10 were taken to Planned Parenthood facilities and other clinics for abortions and birth control by their sexual abusers, but because staff failed to report the crimes, the girls were subjected to years of ongoing sexual abuse.
Mark Crutcher, president of Life Dynamics, a national pro-life organization that has compiled these cases, said they reveal that Planned Parenthood is "operating a nationwide pedophile protection racket."
Some girls were even taken back to the same clinics by the pedophiles who were abusing them for repeat abortions, yet the staff still failed to ask questions or file a report with local law enforcement. more >>
In a precedential ruling, Britain's Court of Appeal ruled on Thursday that mothers who excessively drink while pregnant are not criminally responsible for causing life-long disabilities to their unborn babies and children born permanently harmed by their mother's alcohol abuse are not eligible to receive criminal injury compensation from the government.
Attorneys representing a 7-year-old girl, who is known only as CP and was born with severe brain damage because her mother consumed either half a bottle of vodka or eight cans of lager per day, petitioned the court to grant her compensation funds from Britain's Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority.
However, the three-judge panel ruled that a fetus cannot be considered a person under British law because they do not have a "legal personality" and are just an "organism" in the mother's womb. The court also deemed that since pregnant alcohol abuse has not been criminalized by Parliament, the mother had not committed a crime. more >>
Both liberal and conservative women aligned to support a case debating the issue of pregnant women's rights in the workplace which was argued before the U.S. Supreme Court Wednesday.
Lawyers for Peggy Young, a UPS truck driver, argued before the nation's highest court that her employer UPS did not provide work accommodations for pregnant employees who wish to retain their jobs as it does with non-pregnant employees with work limitations. Young's battle has drawn the support of both women's rights groups and pro-life groups, communities which are typically on opposing ends of the abortion issue, for different reasons.
Women's rights organizations rallying behind Young's case believe pregnancy discrimination is another example of gender inequality in the work place and in women's paychecks. more >>
After exceeding their $2.1 million crowdfunding goal earlier this year to make a crime drama about Kermit Gosnell and his West Philadelphia "house of horrors," late-term abortion clinic, starting Wednesday, Indiegogo is allowing the Gosnell movie producers to reopen their campaign indefinitely as part of its "forever funding" program.
By reopening the crowdfunding campaign, producers Ann McElhinney, Phelim McAleer and Magdalena Segieda will continue to offer "thank you" gifts to donors and have set new goals for the crime drama, which includes raising an additional $500,000 to extend filming to four weeks, and securing the best actors they can find for the film. The producers also hope to increase the number of backers from the 26,574 who donated over $2.2 million to over 100,000 backers to show potential distributors that a large number of Americans support the project.
"It's a huge boost to the movie — more donations, means more shooting days, better actors, higher production values, it'll mean a better movie. It will also mean we'll be able to get Gosnell's story out to a wider audience," McElhinney said in a statement shared with The Christian Post on Wednesday. more >>
The District of Columbia has delayed a vote on a bill mandating all businesses cover abortion in their insurance programs regardless of the business owner's moral objections.
In a decision made on Tuesday afternoon, the Council of the District of Columbia pulled the Reproductive Health Non-Discrimination Amendment Act of 2014 off the agenda.
Months after the D.C.-based U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby that closely-held businesses were exempt from the federal government's birth control mandate, the D.C. Council had on their agenda a bill that undermined this exemption. more >>
Riots and protests have occurred throughout the nation in the wake of the Ferguson decision. The national news media has done all but call the protestors to arms.
Many of the people taking part in these "demonstrations" have been holding signs that read, "Black Lives Matter." I could not agree more.
Abortion giant Planned Parenthood even took a stance on this hot button topic, issuing a statement that said, "Black Lives Matter." What irony! Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood is known for her efforts to significantly reduce the black population. She saw abortion as a solution to black poverty and even spoke at a Ku Klux Klan rally and raved about its success. Where is the outrage over this blatant discrimination and hate? more >>

ETSU student Entrepreneurs' Club to host Morgan and Lisa Pattison
The East Tennessee State University student Entrepreneurs' Club will welcome Morgan and Lisa Pattison to speak on Monday, March. 2, at 5 p.m. in room 322 of Sam Wilson Hall.
The Pattisons founded and operate Solid State Lighting Services Inc., a consulting business focused on the technology of LEDs, OLEDs and solid-state lighting. They provide technical advice to the U.S. Department of Energy, investors and start-up companies. In addition, they develop products for clients, review LED lighting products and occasionally handle lighting design projects from their home in Johnson City. And, as a team, they have co-founded three businesses plus a small school. They are currently setting up their fourth technology start-up in the area of aviation lighting.
The Pattisons will give an overview of LED lighting technology and how it is revolutionizing the lighting industry, as well as a look at operating a consulting business, the value of patents and new ways of doing business.
Lisa attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for her undergraduate work. As a freshman, she was co-inventor of the magnetic tunnel junction, the basis for all magnetic hard drives used in computers prior to the development of solid-state memory. She also holds a master's degree from Stanford University and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Barbara, both in materials science. She is a registered patent agent and an inventor with several patents to her credit. She is also a student in the ETSU Bluegrass, Country and Old-time Music program.
Morgan attended the University of California, San Diego, where he earned a degree in electrical engineering. He continued his education at UCSB, earning a master's degree in electrical engineering and a Ph.D. in materials science.
His thesis advisor, Shuji Nakamura, won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2014 for inventing the blue LED, the foundation for all LED lighting. Working with Nakamura prepared Morgan for a position as senior technical advisor to the Department of Energy's Solid State Lighting Program
Morgan also has several patents to his credit, some of which have served as the base intellectual property for viable start-ups.
The public is invited to this free program. Directions to Sam Wilson Hall can be found by visiting www.etsu.edu/maps/. For additional information, contact Mitzi Brookshear at firstname.lastname@example.com or 423-439-7444. For disability accommodations, call the ETSU Office of Disability Services at 423-439-8346.

Okay, I just got a 1ft Musa! I planted it in a 16"pot with Miracle grow moisture control soil and Milorganite. I am also using a watering globe and it seems to like that too since I already filled it once since Wednesday. Today I noticed two of the stems wilting and where it was wilted was a little black. I cut the both off. The main part of the tree seems fine and healthy.... is there any thing I should be worried about? It is in the 60's right now and i put it in direct sun today... ANY advise would be great... you can email me too.
Stacybeth, Wow I could have posted this myself - I am in the exact same boat as you! I, too, just got some 1' musas and planted in pots with Miracle Gro soil (however no Milorganite -- I still have to buy some). We are having the same temps here also, and my musas all seem to have some drooping leaves (actually a couple even appear to be broken). They were in full sun, so then I tried moving them to a bit less sun... but it did not make any difference. So they are out in full sun again, and are getting watered every day, since it has rained briefly every day this week.
I am very interested to see the replies from the experts here! I hope our new musas make it! Good luck to you!
Hello there!
Two things, Milorganite is not really good for potted bananas. Plants in pots have different needs and can easily get too much of a good thing.
Also, bananas always take time to adjust when they are first obtained, put in their pot etc... I would also make sure they were first in shade, and then slowly put to full sun, unless you have a strong sun, then part shade. They have marks, and "war scars" but they'll come out of it and smile at ya now that summer is coming!
Thanks Zack!
It has been unseasonably cool here in MA and I moved my little musa into the sun yesterday.. normally it is in partial shade...I am going to check it now...as far as Milorganite I was told by another poster that Musa's love Milorganite and it is okay to use in pots...its already mixed into the soil so I guess I wont use as much as I did the next time... I use Milorganite for my Elephant ears (all my plants are in pots, too much ledge in back)... they seem to like it too.
\ Anyway.. I will keep you posted. Thanks again for the great advise.
Hey Zach.. you seem like you know alot about the Musa....Mine is shade in am and then full sun in the afternoon, around 2:30ish or so...Today was a good day.. the two leaves that are left seem to be hanging on .. tomorrow its gonna be about 80 degrees.. cross your fingers.. ALSO... how often do you recommend watering this little guy?
No offense intended, but Milorganite is great in pots as I have grown some very large Rojos and Sabas in pots. It won't burn the bananas and becomes humus unlike sythetic fertilzers. It's low 5-2-0 NKP ratio is very mild, yet benefitial to plants of all kinds.
I actually am a newbie on Musas...I've been studying them and learning all I can about them over the last year...there is so much to know!!
As far as watering, you really just have to look at your nanner. When bananas are in new pots, in new situations, and changes, I really take care not to over water them...they are tender at that point. I definitely wait till the top layer(s) of dirt are dry. However if it's acclimated to a pot, location, and is reliably warm everyday, then you can tend to keep it wet.
I'm gonna have to do some more research on Milorganite.
Hey there Zach!
Thanks so much for replying to my posts... I really appreciate it!!! You are not going to believe this!!! I re-potted to a 8" pot and this past weekend we have had "warmer" temps here in New England.. yesterday it was 75-78 degrees. Well i walked up to the baby today and out of the top, where I cut off the drooping dying leaves is a little baby... sprouting... I CANT BELIEVE IT!!!! Thanks to ALL that have given me wonderful advise.... I love this board!!!
I repotted the Musa to a 8" pot and it is very happy... I did it after I got the advise that it was in too large of a pot... oops.. my second Musa is coming tomorrow and I will be sure to pot it in a small pot. Question though, how am I to know when to transplant it to a larger pot?
stacey, at the size of your plant, an 8" pot should suffice for about a month. Check the bottom of pot now and then to see if roots have hit bottom.If you enjoy bananas, Bananas.org. is a great forum. Easy to join and nice helpful people like garden web.

As Purim approaches, thousands of Israeli children and families grapple with poverty
Recently, the Romanian government unveiled a long overdue memorial to the 300,000 Romanian Jews and Roma who perished in World War II at the hands of their own government and the Nazis. Unfortunately, the U.S. State Department, whose wartime diplomats doomed tens of thousands of the Romanian Jews commemorated by the memorial, has yet to acknowledge its own role in the Romanian Holocaust.
During the war, the Romanian government forced hundreds of thousands of Romanian Jewish men, women and children out of their homes and made them march hundreds of miles to the killing fields of Transnistria, where the survivors were expected to die from cold, disease or starvation. A gift from Hitler to his Romanian ally, Transnistria was a grotesque chunk of land carved out of the Nazi-occupied Ukraine.
Romania turned it into the world's largest concentration camp. In one Transnistrian town, tens of thousands of the deported Jews had to live in just a few hundred small houses made of clay, many in ruins from bombing and shelling.
"As to the Jews," the Romanian leader, Marshal Ion Antonescu, told officials of his government, "I have taken measures to remove them entirely once and for all from these regions [of Romania]. If I do not purify the Romanian nation, then I have achieved nothing."
In early 1943, the German army and its allies suffered a devastating defeat at the battle of Stalingrad. The Romanian army alone had 160,000 casualties. Antonescu, no longer confident about the outcome of the war and seeking to ease harsh peace terms, offered to allow the surviving Transnistrian Jews to emigrate to Palestine (after the war the Russians executed him anyway). The Romanian government requested $50 per Jew as a bribe.
By mid-1943, Jewish groups in the United States and Switzerland had put together an elaborate rescue plan, including escrowing the bribe monies in blocked Swiss bank accounts, and managed to get it before FDR.
"This is a very fair proposal," FDR told his secretary of the treasury, who then issued the necessary license for the Jewish groups to transfer private funds for the rescue. Roosevelt assured them that "the matter is now awaiting a further exchange of cables between the State Department and our mission in Bern regarding some of the details."
But very few Jews, blacks or women served in the wartime State Department and the few who did were largely relegated to backwater posts. The State Department bureaucracy was run by a cadre of diplomats who were callous toward Jewish suffering far beyond even the anti-Semitic norms of the era. Their elite, cloistered upbringings had cut them off from the ethnically divergent American mainstream and imbued them with a deep-rooted sense of Anglo-Saxon superiority, a "don't rock the boat" mentality, and disdain for Jews and other minorities.
Whatever nerves transmit normal human empathy had simply atrophied in these officials. And, like all good bureaucrats, as one Washington journalist observed, these diplomats were "masters of the negative, the gentle objection, the postponement, the misplaced paper, the need for further consideration."
The diplomats argued that the British would never permit the Transnistrian Jews, whom they termed "enemy aliens," to emigrate to Palestine and therefore there was no place to put the dying Jews. After the American mission in Switzerland reported to the State Department on the Jewish massacres in Europe and on the plight of the Transnistrian Jews – "60,000 had already died and 70,000 were starving … living conditions indescribable" – the State Department dispatched a cable directing the mission to stop sending any reports about the Nazis' extermination of the Jews, told inquiring U.S. senators that there was no foundation to the Romanian offer, and refused even to forward the Treasury Department license to the Jewish groups.
In late 1943, young, middle-class Christian lawyers at the Treasury Department, tough-minded bureaucratic infighters dedicated to the defeat of Nazi Germany, discovered the State Department's sabotage of the Transnistrian rescue and cover-up of the Nazi extermination plan. They described the State Department officials as "an underground movement to let the Jews be killed," "vicious men" who were "accomplices of Hitler," and "war criminals in every sense of the term."
In memoranda, the young lawyers explicitly accused the State Department of "willful attempts to prevent action from being taken to rescue Jews from Hitler," effectively charging their own government with complicity in genocide.

How did we move so quickly from complacency to last-minute weapons deliveries and a possible no-fly zone?
A just-released Israeli commission report vehemently disputes the France 2 video made in 2000 of a Palestinian father and his son crouching for shelter from bullets allegedly fired by Israeli soldiers. This is a media controversy but it parallels the decades-long dispute between Israel and the human rights organizations that have issued reports on violent clashes in the West Bank, Gaza, and Lebanon. Simply, the reporting process on these confrontations has broken down.
The debate in the Jewish community over Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his response to the Holocaust has been bitter and emotional, a family divided against itself. On the one hand, FDR was the polio-stricken man who, after being knocked flat on his back, rose and revived an America that had been knocked flat on its back and then led it to wartime triumph over Hitler and to global destiny.
During a recent trip to Rwanda, former president Bill Clinton lamented his failure in 1994 to intervene in that country's genocidal massacres. "I don't think we could have ended the violence, but I think we could have cut it down. And I regret it."
This year, Holocaust Remembrance Day is the anniversary of two starkly contrasting events of April 19, 1943 – the first day of the gallant but doomed Warsaw Ghetto uprising and of the ignominious Anglo-American Bermuda Conference on the Refugee Problem, which State Department diplomats organized to deflect pressure to rescue Jews from the Nazi death machine.
Recently, the Romanian government unveiled a long overdue memorial to the 300,000 Romanian Jews and Roma who perished in World War II at the hands of their own government and the Nazis. Unfortunately, the U.S. State Department, whose wartime diplomats doomed tens of thousands of the Romanian Jews commemorated by the memorial, has yet to acknowledge its own role in the Romanian Holocaust.

Canada's senior politicians met with aboriginal leaders Friday to tackle the problem of missing and murdered indigenous women, but they emerged mainly with a promise to meet again next year.

In the wake of a tragic house fire that killed two children on Saskatchewan's Makwa Sahgaiehcan First Nation last week, aboriginal leaders have made some sensible observations. Stan Beardy, regional chief for Ontario of the Assembly of First Nations (AFN), told CBC News that reserves need proper fire safety standards, inspections and reporting mechanisms. "If there's no fire inspections, how do you ensure you're meeting a standard?" he asked.
The head of the national Assembly of First Nations is demanding the federal government re-evaluate funding for First Nations in light of this month's house fire that killed two toddlers on a northern Saskatchewan reserve. "The situation is at crisis level," National Chief Perry Bellegarde said in his Feb. 20 letter to Bernard Valcourt, minister of aboriginal affairs. "The reasons all point to the fact that the Government of Canada provides insufficient funds to First Nations to adequately provide their members a safe and healthy environment."
