Gold's bull market may or may not be over, but gold miners are sure acting like it is. Emerging-market investors can find opportunity amid the carnage by understanding the transformation taking place.
It's been a tough year for gold—and gold miners. The precious metal has dropped 5.6% in 2013, while the Market Vectors Gold Miners GDX -1.9904458598726114% Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 18.465 -0.375 -1.9904458598726114% /Date(1427741278702-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 13398583 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 0.652995143011333% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » exchange-traded fund (GDX) is off 19%.

When gold was heading straight up, companies—desperate to increase their production—poured money into huge, expensive projects with little thought to the costs. Investors, meanwhile, were willing to look the other way, while pouring money into the stocks—even when performance was lagging and their stakes were diluted by share issuance. From gold's bottom in October 2008 through its peak in September 2011, the miners beat the metal by about 50 percentage points.
But with the price of gold no longer moving higher—it's about 15% below its peak—the gold miners ETF has shed nearly half its value. The companies, at least, have realized that the old growth-at-all-costs focus no longer works, says JPMorgan analyst John Bridges, and have begun to shift toward a more sustainable business model. They've been shedding unprofitable mines, providing investors with more accurate information on production costs, and focusing on free cash flow and dividend yields.
JAMIE SOKALSKY, CEO of Barrick Gold ABX -0.9300265721877768% Barrick Gold Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD11.185 -0.105 -0.9300265721877768% /Date(1427741237204-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 6305048 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 13160022491.8252 Dividend Yield 1.7817213209681875% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (ABX), acknowledged as much after the company issued its fourth-quarter earnings on Feb. 14, saying in a press release that "rising costs, poor capital allocation, and the pursuit of production growth at any cost in the industry have led to declining equity valuations across the sector." He promised to do better.
Companies that operate solely in emerging markets have had to be even more creative. South Africa's Gold Fields GFI -4.118993135011442% Gold Fields Ltd. ADS U.S.: NYSE USD4.19 -0.18 -4.118993135011442% /Date(1427741220720-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1322465 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 3404754896.85213 Dividend Yield 0.7861904761904762% Rev. per Employee 278670 More quote details and news » (GFI) for instance, split in two, with a new company, Sibanye Gold SBGL -2.5274725274725274% Sibanye Gold Ltd.

So far, at least, investors have been unenthused: Gold Fields has dropped 18% since the split occurred on Feb. 11, while Sibanye has fallen 9.4%. Both have been hit by labor unrest in South Africa, unrest unlikely to end soon, considering that unemployment is near 25% and South Africa's mining companies have been talking about downsizing.
The gold-miner selloff, meanwhile, has left many looking cheap—but for good reasons, considering the uncertain outcome of their transformation. Investors willing to take risks should focus on the ones that have low costs, free cash flow—or will have it soon—and operate in more stable countries, says Avy Hirshman, a portfolio manager at Newgate Capital Management. "Today, you need to do your homework and find the ones that have those attributes you feel more comfortable owning," he says.
His favorite: Canada's Yamana Gold auy -3.133159268929504% Yamana Gold Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD3.71 -0.12 -3.133159268929504% /Date(1427741243184-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4301184 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 4510548675.5899 Dividend Yield 1.6129032258064515% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » (AUY), which operates in Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Argentina. The company's cost of production is about $500 an ounce, well below South African miners' $800-plus, and it has been cutting its capital expenditures. Yamana had free cash flow from operations of $509 million during 2012's third quarter.
A YEAR THAT STARTED WITH such promise for emerging markets has instead yielded more disappointment. However, there's still hope for a rally this year. The MSCI Emerging Market Index rose 5% during 2012's final three months, versus the S&P 500's 1% drop. This year, however, the emerging-market index has edged down 0.1%, even as the S&P has gained 6.2%. The earlier bounce was inspired by signs that an economic recovery had taken hold in China and other corners of the developing world. But investors worry about that growth's sustainability, now that China appears to be reining in its runaway credit, the U.S. is headed for automatic budget cuts, and Europe's problems have returned to the fore.
But for the time being, at least, emerging-market economies continue to expand. RBC Capital Markets' aggregate of emerging-market purchasing managers' indexes dipped to 51.6 in February, from 52.2 in January, but is still above the 50 that signals growth.
Other signs of health lurk beneath the surface, says Ned Davis Research's Tony Welch. For instance, 76% of emerging markets are above their 200-day moving averages, while 75% of those moving averages are rising. Under such conditions in the past, Welch says, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has gained 18.3% a year, on average.
Emerging-market companies have suffered from weak earnings, says George Iwanicki, an emerging-markets portfolio manager at JPMorgan Asset Management, but profits could pick up if economic growth continues.
The upshot: If earnings head higher, this could be a very good year.

Every trade involving a 2014 NBA draft pick
Jun 27, 2014, 9:25 AM EDT
Nearly a third – 19 of 60 – picks in the 2014 NBA draft were traded.
Some of the deals are official, and some can't be completed until July, but that's only a technicality.
Here's my best attempt at compiling every trade involving a 2014 NBA draft pick:
- The 76ers traded Elfrid Payton (No. 10) to the Magic for Dario Saric (No. 12), a 2017 first rounder (top-11 protected and top-eight protected in 2018) and 2015 second rounder
- The Nuggets traded Doug McDermott (No. 11) and Anthony Randolph to the Bulls for Jusuf Nurkic (No. 16), Gary Harris (No. 19) and a 2015 second rounder
- The Hornets traded Shabazz Napier (No. 24) to the Heat for P.J. Hairston (No. 26), Semaj Christon (No. 55) and a future second rounder
- The Jazz traded Jarnell Stokes (No. 35) to the Grizzlies for a 2016 second rounder
- The Timberwolves traded Markel Brown (No. 44) to the Nets for cash
- The Hornets traded Dwight Powell (No. 45) and Brendan Haywood to the Cavaliers for Alonzo Gee
- The Wizards traded Jordan Clarkson (No. 46) to the Lakers for cash
- The 76ers traded Russ Smith (No. 47) to the Pelicans for Pierre Jackson
- The 76ers traded Nemanja Dangubic (No. 54) to the Spurs for Jordan McRae (No. 58) and Cory Jefferson (No. 60)
- The Nuggets traded Roy Devyn Marble (No. 56) and Evan Fournier to the Magic for Arron Afflalo
- The Pacers traded Louis Labeyrie (No. 57) to the Knicks for cash
- The Raptors traded Xavier Thames (No. 59) for cash
- The 76ers traded Cory Jefferson, the 60th pick whom them acquired from the Spurs earlier in the night, to the Nets. Philadelphia's return is unclear, because it would just be too easy to put a bow on this
- dacapt704 - Jun 27, 2014 at 9:32 AM
NBA history was made last night as the Pelicans traded a player to themselves! Wow…talk about getting fleeced by the other GM! Rofl…
"The Pelicans traded Russ Smith (No. 47) to the Pelicans for Pierre Jackson"
- saint1997 - Jun 27, 2014 at 9:47 AM
I was so so happy when Payton got moved to the Magic. I wanted him there the whole time and I can see this Magic roster going far. They've got an identity now – SUPER strong defensively and great athletes in transition plus Vucevic to play in the post (most underrated dude in the league I think) so this team I think had awesome potential. Not sold on Vaughn as a coach though, that may need work. Lionel Hollins?
- bruiza2k - Jun 27, 2014 at 9:57 AM
Forgot the move Thunder/Hornets Made. Hornets gave up Semaj Christon (sp?) in exchange for cash.
- rajbais - Jun 27, 2014 at 10:10 AM
Philly gets a "F" for the draft.
You don't draft and then stay terrible.
You draft to add players that help you win now. They had a chance to be Phoenix before Jeff hornacek came. Now they're the Suns of 2004 except no prime FAs like Steve Nash or Quentin Richardson (18+ ppg in 2004) come.
Embiid is a 3.4 foul per game player in 23 minutes w/no track record of good health.
Will Saric come this year??
As for Denver, their picks don't help them be a top 4 seed when they are talented when healthy.
The Nuggets get a "C".
The Bulls get a "B-" because they brought the Brian Scalabrine effect for fans. McDermott needs next offseason to trim off fat and be more athletic, but he's a good long term fit.
- TheMorningStar - Jun 27, 2014 at 12:11 PM
'You draft to add players that help you win now'
Unless your team ISN'T in a position 'to win now'.
Damn son, you even watch basketball???
- adoombray - Jun 27, 2014 at 12:49 PM
It's a slap in the face of anyone who even remotely cares about that basketball team that the 6ers just basically excused another year of not even trying.
There is something fundamentally wrong with thinking losing is a good thing on any level
- rajbais - Jun 27, 2014 at 2:23 PM
Yes. If not … increase the win totals. They're not even a 25 win team with this newest nucleus.
- rajbais - Jun 27, 2014 at 2:23 PM
If you don't aim to win now you can't increase your win totals from the previous year. That's it.
- csbanter - Jun 27, 2014 at 10:54 AM
Miami will regret trading PJ Hairston. Good for Charlotte, MJ always look out for his Tar Heels family. If the Hornets were a stock this would be a good time to buy.
- canetic - Jun 27, 2014 at 11:27 AM
Can someone explain why Philadelphia took Payton at 10 and then traded for the Magic's #12 pick in Saric? Why not take Saric at 10 and keep the 2017 first round pick?
- spursareold - Jun 27, 2014 at 11:56 AM
Philly RECEIVED a 2017 first rounder for moving back two spots, they didn't give one up.
The 76ers traded Elfrid Payton (No. 10) to the Magic for Dario Saric (No. 12), a 2017 first rounder (top-11 protected and top-eight protected in 2018) and 2015 second rounder
- canetic - Jun 27, 2014 at 1:04 PM
Ah. That makes more sense. Thanks for pointing that out.
- abqpacker - Jun 27, 2014 at 1:02 PM
Also missed Bucks/Nets trade that went down late.
- cberkhous - Jun 27, 2014 at 1:23 PM
Does it make sense that the Jazz traded a high 2nd rounder this year to Memphis for what most likely will be a late 2nd rounder in to 2016? Were they just that desperate to get rid of the pick? I would have thought they could have at least got a 1st or maybe two 2nds.
- themike31 - Jun 27, 2014 at 2:40 PM
Did Xavier Thames get traded nowhere?

Wings coach Babcock misses 'top-four forward' Helm
Mar 22, 2013, 4:32 PM EDT
Darren Helm isn't the flashiest player in the NHL, but Red Wings coach Mike Babcock sure misses him.
Babcock went so far today as to call 26-year-old Helm — who had nine goals in 68 games last season — "a top-four forward" on his team.
The coach must have been referring to Helm's defensive play. Or maybe it was his work in the faceoff circle. Or his willingness to throw the body around. Or his speed.
Still suffering from back pain, Helm has only suited up once for Detroit this season. He's not on the four-game road trip, which starts tonight in Anaheim, and there's still no timetable for his return.
"He's rehabbing," general manager Ken Holland said, per the Detroit Free Press. "His feeling is that he spent a lot of time on the plane the last time going to Western Canada. He felt great going out there, but five hours on the plane back, his back seized up. We'll see how he is early in the week. I mean, obviously if he feels great we can always get him out, but to fly out here five hours and then fly five hours back next week – he didn't want to put his back through that again.
"Obviously, it's a setback."

London Welsh appoint ex-Blues coach Justin Burnell
Sunday 09 June 2013
London Welsh have appointed Justin Burnell as their new head coach following the departure of Lyn Jones.
Burnell, 45, has previously coached at Cardiff Blues and will join the set-up "almost immediately", with pre-season training commencing on 17 June.
"I look to build upon the foundations laid over the last couple of seasons, with the aim of regaining Premiership status," Burnell said.
"This represents a huge and exciting opportunity for me."
Burnell was a joint head coach and forwards coach of Cardiff Blues and helped to guide them to a Heineken Cup quarter-final in 2012. The club said that he had been drawn from a three-man shortlist of "very strong candidates".

I was so excited to get this jacket. I had tried on the jacket in XS at a nearby store - loved it! - but ultimately decided I would look online for a different color in my size. Enter Overstock. Great experience with the company itself/shipping updates/etc. Unfortunately, the jacket was LITERALLY a huge disappointment! The jacket I had tried on in the store was a bit baggy in some places, like the arms, but it wasn't a deal-breaker. I tried on my XS black trench from Overstock and I felt like I was putting on a garbage bag and/or potato sack. I was afraid to look in the mirror at this point... To my dismay, the coat did not fit. AT ALL. The fabric and everything is great, it is constructed beautifully, but the way it fit was totally nonnegotiable. Too much fabric in the chest, arms, the whole thing. I debated whether or not to attempt to shrink this jacket or just return it. I have decided to return it since I don't want to take the chance of ruining it. I'm so sad that the XS doesn't fit like an XS. I think it would be a great buy for the taller/larger gals. For me (5'2, 105 lbs) not much. I did order it based on the sizing in the store so maybe the jacket I received is labeled incorrectly as XS? I don't know :(
The gridiron attracts sports fans of every age and zip code, and "American football" continues to grow in popularity all over the world. Football fans constantly brag about topping popularity polls among team sports. America's weekend addiction is also a great opportunity for sports and fitness, but it is important to remember that football is a contact sport; players get hurt, sometimes seriously. Modern football gear is designed using the best engineering and materials available, and when you use the right football helmets, football pads and other football equipment, you can reduce chances of injury.
You need quite a few women's shirts, so where do you start? This buying guide is here to help you figure out how to buy the shirts you need, so when you open your closet, you'll see just the shirts that are right for your body type and your lifestyle. If you're starting from scratch or scaling back your wardrobe, be sure you have the minimum recommended numbers of shirts; you can fill in more as you see what your day-to-day needs are.
Online shopping for men's clothing can be difficult when you don't know what size you wear. This guide is here to help you find clothes that will fit.

We bought this for our niece. She loves it. It's good quality & nice and heavy. It runs a little small
Dec 6, 2014kidsdoctor from Oregon, Rating:5.0
Color is as pictured. It's more like a sweater than a jacket as it is too lightweight to be a jacket; it's kind of like the weight of a heavy sweatshirt. It is not at all fitted but hangs straight down. I didn't notice when I saw it on line that the wrists have embroidery on them, but it's a nice touch that adds more style. I am very happy with this purchase.

Excellent quality and a very nice fit. Looks good with jeans.

The jacket is cute, but 2 things, the first 1 is small, I wish the collar stayed down when it is not zipped all the way up...it pokes me in the neck on 1 side and that is annoying...second, much worse, I did not try the jacket on for a while when I got it because we had warm weather, when I did I found that 1 of the pockets was sewn incorrectly and completely unusable, it was past the allowable return time so now I have a 1 pocketed jacket...it is stylish however.

I bought this to use as a bed jacket. I wasn't able to find one and this did the trick. It is well made and the color is pretty. The sleeves are somewhat long but can be rolled up.

Hamas fighters, clad in black and armed with assault rifles, navigated the dimly lit tunnel with ease, saying they felt at home in their network of underground passages in the Gaza Strip.A rare tour that Hamas granted to a Reuters reporter, photographer and cameraman appeared to be an attempt to dispute Israel's claim that it had demolished all of the Islamist group's border infiltration tunnels in the Gaza war."We are speaking to you today from inside one of those tunnels, which Israel said it had destroyed. Our men are still operating in those tunnels prepared for all options," said a masked fighter from Hamas's Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.But driven, blindfolded, to the secret location in a Hamas vehicle that made a series of turns, it was impossible for the Reuters crew to tell whether it was close to the frontier or further inside the Gaza Strip in tunnels untouched by Israeli bombing. It was not clear where the tunnel led.By Israel's own account, its ground forces focused only on destroying tunnels within 2 to 4.5 km of the border, while ignoring more distant connecting passages. During the Gaza offensive, Israel's military took reporters through tunnels it discovered at the frontier.Chatting in soft voices and laughing at times, Hamas men guided the Reuters crew through corridors less than a meter (3.3 feet) wide that are reached by descending a thin metal ladder through a tiny shaft."It feels just like home," their commander said. "Fighters dug these tunnels with their own hands just like they built their houses, so they live here at comfort and assurance like they do at home."SOUND OF SILENCEThe ceiling in parts of the tunnel was high enough so we could walk through - alternately on dry, concrete floors and muddy ground - without having to bend our heads.It was impossible to gauge the tunnel's length, but it had offshoots leading in different directions. Once inside, the sounds of traffic and Israeli drones that routinely fly over the territory of 1.8 million people could not be heard.Israel said the tunnel network is used by Hamas to move and store weapons and keep fighters out of sight of Israeli aircraft.It is separate from smuggling conduits that ran under the Egypt-Gaza border. Egypt, which regards Hamas as a security threat, destroyed those tunnels before the current war.Israel launched its Gaza offensive on July 8 after a surge in Hamas rocket fire across the border. Israeli ground forces invaded on July 17 with the declared aim of destroying infiltration tunnels and left on Aug. 5 after saying that mission had been accomplished.Egypt is trying to finalise a long-term ceasefire after a five-day truce was extended by 24 hours into Tuesday.On the battlefield, Hamas met Israeli forces with an array of tactics, including the use of tunnels to launch surprise attacks. Israel's military lost 64 soldiers, more than six times the number of troops killed in its previous invasion of Gaza in early 2009. Three civilians in Israel were also killed.Israel says it has killed hundreds of Hamas fighters and destroyed more than 30 tunnels. Funeral marches were held for several members of the Qassam Brigades but there has been no official word from the group on its losses.The Palestinian Health Ministry puts the Gaza death toll at 2,016 and says most were civilians in the small, densely populated coastal territory.In the tunnel, a Hamas fighter said the group would press on with restocking its arsenal or rockets and other weaponry and shoring up its underground network."In peace we make preparations, and in war we use what we have readied," he said.

Pretty fun concept, but rather buggy and unpolished. As far as bugs go, I've found three major ones immediately:
1. When two zombies walk into the same tile, one zombie disappears (game seems to treat it as one zombie then)
2. If you hit the wall, you die
3. If zombies hit the wall, you see them on the wall tile, then flash back to the previous one
If the bugs are worked out and the game gets polished up, it'll be pretty good!
Actually it is not supposed to depict a wall, but rather a void, the graphics really need work.
A challenging game. Simple. Fun but frustrating. Not the best graphics but they work for this game. Needs something to make it more "wow". Overall, not the worst, not the best, and it could be a bit better.

Thanks to Warner Home Entertainment, Moviehole has 5 copies of "We're the Millers" up for grabs on Blu-ray!
If anyone asks… we're the Millers.
David Burke (Jason Sudeikis) is a small-time pot dealer whose clientele includes chefs and soccer moms, but no kids-after all, he has his scruples. So what could go wrong? Plenty. Preferring to keep a low profile for obvious reasons, he learns the hard way that no good deed goes unpunished when he tries to help out some local teens and winds up getting jumped by a trio of gutter punks. Stealing his stash and his cash, they leave him in major debt to his supplier, Brad (Ed Helms).
In order to wipe the slate clean-and maintain a clean bill of health-David must now become a big-time drug smuggler by bringing Brad's latest shipment in from Mexico. Twisting the arms of his neighbors, cynical stripper Rose (Jennifer Aniston) and wannabe customer Kenny (Will Poulter), and the tatted-and-pierced streetwise teen Casey (Emma Roberts), he devises a foolproof plan. One fake wife, two pretend kids and a huge, shiny RV later, the "Millers" are headed south of the border for a Fourth of July weekend that is sure to end with a bang.
How to Win : Email us your name, address and the answer to this question "Name a brand of beer that has the word 'Millers' in it's name"

The Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation or CJCUC is an educational institution at which Christians who tour Israel can study the Hebrew Bible with Orthodox rabbis and learn about the Hebraic roots of Christianity. The center was established in Efrat in 2008 by Rabbi Dr. Shlomo Riskin, who has developed a reputation as "the most prominent rabbinic spokesperson to Christian Zionists".[1] CJCUC partners with major Christian interfaith organizations such as Christians United for Israel and the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem.[1] Its mission is rooted in Isaiah 1:18: "Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord".
The ideological groundwork, which lead to the eventual establishment of CJCUC in 2008, began to take shape almost 50 years beforehand. In 1964, Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik, the teacher and mentor of CJCUC's Chancellor and Founder, Shlomo Riskin, published an essay entitled "Confrontation"[2] in which he expounded his views on interfaith dialogue and carefully drew out guidelines which permitted such a dialogue and, in the view of Riskin, not only permitted it but rendered it necessary.
At around the same time, fundamental ideological shifts were forming within the ranks of the Catholic Church and a year after Soloveitchik's essay was published, The Holy See issued Nostra aetate, the Declaration on the Relation of the Church with Non-Christian Religions. Nostra aetate absolved the Jews from the Crucifixion of Jesus and admitted that religious antisemitism had a significant role in laying the foundation for the atrocities perpetrated against the Jewish people.
Riskin's academic plunge into Jewish-Christian relations began in the early 1960s when he attended seminars, held by Professor David Flusser, about the Christian Gospels at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. As an Orthodox Jew, he could pinpoint the parallels for Jesus' teachings within the Hebrew scripture.[3]
After settling in Efrat, Riskin began to engage with the Christian world. Most of the Christian visitors to Efrat, those who came to hear and learn, were Evangelicals. He formed relations with Rev. Robert Stearns of Eagles' Wings and with Pastor John Hagee, the controversial far-right Christian Zionist leader. When Riskin confronted Hagee with the question about his love for the Jewish nation, "Do you love us because you want to convert us?" Hagee replied, "I love you because of Genesis 12:3 when the Lord says to Abraham, 'I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you'. I want to be blessed and not cursed, Rabbi".[4] Hagee's organization believes that Jews must live in the Land of Israel for the Rapture to occur, after which they will convert or perish.
Since its establishment in 2008, CJCUC has nurtured positive communication between two faith communities using Bible text study as the medium to accomplish its goal. The Center highlights the theological and historical significance of the Land of Israel, which favors the far right's rejection of the peace process.[5]
CJCUC hosts Christian groups from all over the world for all-day seminars,[6][7] which include tours of biblical sites such as nearby Jerusalem, the Path of the Patriarchs and the Herodian wells. Among the subjects that the seminar series includes are Jewish-Christian Relations; the Theology of Biblical Holidays; Covenant & Mission; The Ten Commandments; Satan, Evil & Free Will; Judaism and the Ministry of Jesus; and Human Life Created in the Image of God.
The center runs educational seminars for students and faculty of Catholic and Protestant seminaries in the United States, Canada, and Europe. It has appointed North American and European directors to coordinate relations with religious leaders on these continents.
CJCUC has established a Theological Think Tank, the Institute for Theological Inquiry (ITI),[8] headed by Rabbi Eugene Korn and Dr. Robert Jenson of the Witherspoon Institute, which consists of international scholars and theologians whose tasks are to clarify areas of Jewish and Christian theological agreement and disagreement,[9] as well as identify areas of fruitful cooperation. The topics focus on past and present Jewish-Christian Relations, Covenant, Salvation, Biblical Hermeneutics, Religion and Violence, Ethical Monotheism, and Messianism.
CJCUC has received funds from Israel's Hertog family, Paul Singer Foundation, Zion's Gate International Foundation, Ministry of Justice, and John Hagee Ministries to help accomplish its mission.
CJCUC accomplishments include:
- Taking Latin American priests and rabbis to learn the fundamentals of Jewish-Catholic relations in the backdrop of the Holy Land.[7][10]
- Sponsoring an interfaith Latin American clergy mission that visited the Ziv Medical Center in Safed, Israel, donating supplies to wounded Syrian civil war refugees.[11][12]
- It created the first food voucher program to help financially disadvantaged Christian Arabs living in the Land.
- CJCUC partnered with Christians United for Israel to bring 30 Evangelical pastors from the U.S. to learn the fundamentals of Jewish-Christian relations.[13]
- In January 2012, CJCUC received the honorary title of Goodwill Ambassador for Jewish-Christian Relations from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In his letter, the prime minister writes: "I believe you are uniquely suited to be an Ambassador of Goodwill for the State of Israel to strengthen relations between Jews and Christians throughout the world. I know that you will continue to promote understanding between Jews and Christians in a spirit of mutual respect that will enable both to work together to better mankind."
- It has facilitated and sponsored a Yale University student group consisting of Orthodox Jewish and Evangelical Christians to learn the fundamentals of Jewish-Christian relations.[14]
- CJCUC is on the official body between the Holy See and the Jewish people via IJCIC.[15] In January 2011 Riskin had an audience with Pope Benedict XVI,[16] and in June 2013, CJCUC's Academic Director Rabbi Eugene Korn along with other members of the organized Jewish establishment, met with Pope Francis.[17]
- CJCUC's Executive Director, David Nekrutman, was accepted into the Oral Roberts University online Graduate Theology program.[18] In 2011 Nekrutman spoke to Korean Christians at a pro-Israel rally held in Seoul.[19] Nekrutman was the first Orthodox Jew to speak at the Church Of God In Christ (COGIC) conference and discuss the importance of visiting Israel. In April 2012, he was the main speaker at CUFI's first international event in Nairobi where over 1,500 Africans attended to support Israel.
In October 2013 Nekrutman published a controversial appeal for funds from Jews to support the purchase of a permanent site for the Christian-Arab church of Pastor Steven Khoury.[20][21]
In February 2013 CJCUC co-sponsored the visit of more than 160 pastors to Israel through the Christians United for Israel organization.[22]
In October 2014 Riskin became the first Orthodox rabbi to invite Christian visitors to Israel to participate in a "praise rally" with Jewish interfaith leaders at the Center's headquarters during the holiday of Sukkot.[23] For Sukkot 2012, he hosted a seminar for Christian visitors.[24]
In January 2015, CJCUC founder, Rabbi Shlomo Riskin along with CJCUC's Executive Director, David Nekrutman, addressed a group of 400 pastors and rabbis at a symposium held in Broward County, Florida.[25]
In February 2015, on a visit to Oklahoma, Rabbi Riskin unveiled plans for historic high school curricula, being worked on in a joint effort with the government of Israel, detailing advancements in Jewish-Christian relations.[26]
In March 2015 he launched the Day to Praise global initiative calling out to Christians world-wide to join him in reciting Hallel (Psalms 113-118) to praise God on Yom Ha'atzmaut (Israel's Independence Day).[27][28][29][30][31][32]
