Pollutocrat nonpareil Lee Raymond, CEO and chair of ExxonMobil, today announced his resignation, effective at the end of the year. As chair and CEO of the world's largest publicly traded oil company -- and the most recalcitrant on climate issues -- he consistently appalled green observers with his steadfast denial of any need to curb greenhouse-gas emissions or work toward the goal of U.S. energy independence. From a 2002 interview with Raymond: Q: Isn't it time to join the scientific mainstream in countering the greenhouse effect? A: The mainstream of some so-called environmentalists or politically correct Europeans isn't the mainstream of all scientists or the White House. The world has been a lot warmer than it is now and it didn't have anything to do with carbon dioxide. We'll have a hard time replacing this most iconic of eco-villains. Even Bush admits that climate change is happening.
The Wall Street Journal astounded many in the green community last week when it launched a series on toxic chemicals with an in-depth page A1 story on endocrine disruptors, which, even in teeny-tiny amounts, muck up the functioning of human bodies, according to an ever-growing body of scientific studies. Now USA Today is getting in on the game with "Are our products our enemy?" Here, reporter Elizabeth Weise's delightfully melodramatic lead: Like the glint of a knife in the dark, a laboratory accident in 1998 helped scientists realize that some chemicals commonly used to make life more convenient can be health hazards. Since what they still call "the disaster" in geneticist Pat Hunt's lab, more scientists have come to suspect that, even in tiny amounts, some of the chemicals that keep our food fresh, our hair stylish, our floors shiny and our fabrics stain-free might be confusing our hormone systems and derailing fetal development. From what I can discern, there's not much real, breaking news in these stories; rather, the real, breaking news is these stories. Which news outlet will jump on board next?
Even though, really, he's not sexy. So scrawny and white-bread. PETA adherents are even nuttier than I thought. They voted Coldplay singer/guitarist Chris Martin and American Idol country crooner Carrie Underwood as the hottest herbivores. I'm taking that as an insult to us foxy veggies everywhere. My picks from the list of celebs offered up as meat-eschewing hotties: Radha Mitchell, Angela Bassett, Fiona Apple, Esai Morales, and Samuel L. Jackson. Oh, and John Cleese. (Weirdest candidates: G. Gordon Liddy and Mary Tyler Moore.)
Imagine my delight at seeing this on the side of my bus: "Choose your wood responsibly," beckons the ad for Seattle's Environmental Home Center, a mecca for green home improvement. (See the full ad in PDF form here.)
Speaking of Americans never, ever, ever giving up their cars: 88 percent, if forced to ditch either their vehicle or their email/instant messaging, would forgo internet communications in favor of wheels, according to a recent survey. And 86 percent would rather abandon their cell phone than their car. Yet more evidence of how out of touch I am with the masses of real red-blooded Americans. You can have my Honda, but keep your damn paws off the iBook.
Pete Domenici -- Republican senator from New Mexico and chair of the powerful Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee -- met with Cheney on Friday to talk climate. As Alex Flint, the senator's top energy staffer, said, "Sen. Domenici is now convinced that climate change is occurring and that we need to do something about it."
More signs that the tipping point on climate has arrived: In a Christian Science Monitor article today: "The ground is shifting on the politics of climate change faster than I would have thought," said Alex Flint, GOP staff director of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, at a press breakfast sponsored by The Energy Daily and BP America on Friday. And as The Boston Globe reports: "The chairman of the Senate Energy Committee, Pete V. Domenici, is considering whether to team up with a fellow New Mexican, Senator Jeff Bingaman, a Democrat, on [a] proposal that would cap [greenhouse-gas] emissions but allow companies to buy their way out if the cost of reducing emissions proves to be prohibitively high." (More on Bingaman's plan here.) "We're thrilled at the interest being shown by Republicans at doing something that's achievable and doable," said Bill Wicker, a Bingaman spokesman.
The nation's mayors have thrown their weight behind Kyoto (and thereby thumbed their noses at Dubyah). At the U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting in Chicago yesterday, municipal leaders unanimously endorsed a resolution calling on U.S. cities to meet or beat the protocol's emissions-reduction targets. Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels spearheaded the resolution, as well as a more specific campaign that's gotten 164 cities (so far) to commit to taking steps to protect the climate. Grist's Amanda Griscom Little tracked Nickels down amidst all the hubbub this morning for an interview, which we'll publish later this week. Stay tuned. As Eric pointed out yesterday, we're at a tipping point on climate change (finally, jeez). Can Bush possibly hold out for another 3.5 years doing nothing on this issue? I'm betting he cannot. Update [2005-6-20 10:34:49 by Lisa Hymas]: Check out Amanda's interview with Nickels.
After making kissy-face in front of the press corps at the White House today, Bush and Blair took a couple of questions. One reporter asked Bush whether he believes global warming is an anthropogenic problem (without using any big words, of course): And, Mr. President, if I may, as well, on climate change -- you didn't talk about climate change -- do you believe that climate change is manmade and that you, personally, as the leader of the richest country in the world, have a responsibility to reverse that change? Naturally, Bush dodged the causation issue: In terms of climate change, I've always said it's a serious long-term issue that needs to be dealt with. And my administration isn't waiting around to deal with the issue, we're acting. I don't know if you're aware of this, but we lead the world when it comes to dollars spent, millions of dollars spent on research about climate change. We want to know more about it. It's easier to solve a problem when you know a lot about it. And if you look at the statistics, you'll find the United States has taken the lead on this research. [More blather ensued; check it out in the transcript, if you're the masochistic sort.] As it turns out, even as Bush was bragging about the millions the feds are spending on climate-change research, The New York Times was posting an article by Andy Revkin alleging that the administration is doctoring that very same research to jive with the oil industry's preferred version of the "science": A White House official who once led the oil industry's fight against limits on greenhouse gases has repeatedly edited government climate reports in ways that play down links between such emissions and global warming, according to internal documents. Wouldn't want those millions of taxpayer dollars to result in any too firm conclusions, now would we?
We've devised the world's shortest survey to find out what kind of actions our readers are taking. You know you want to.

We have made available for download a set of fluctuation electron microscopy data analysis routines for electron nanodiffraction patterns written in MATLAB. Right now, the routines only calculate the variance of annular averages, and they only work for data files in the SER file format created by the TIA software on FEI electron microscopes. The routines implement TEM sample thickness filtering based on an ADF image acquired simultaneously with the nanodiffraction patterns, as described in Jinwoo's paper. Bug fixes, modifications, and improvements are welcome!

Buffett says US firms prosper as economy improves - 0 Comments
OMAHA, Neb. — Investor Warren Buffett says the U.S. economy continues to improve gradually, and he doesn't think any price "bubbles" are developing.
Buffett told Berkshire Hathaway shareholders at the company's annual meeting Saturday that American businesses are thriving as is evident in their profit reports.
The fact that interest rates have remained near zero for several years has some investors worried about bubbles forming in prices.

How do you know when you are making a real difference? Recent AV Celia shares her thoughts on gap year volunteerism.
Students share their stories on life-changing trip
"The children try their hardest to learn your name and will not let go of your hand; it genuinely feels like this tiny child has been your sibling all this time and is learning just from following your actions. I just don't want any of them to let me go."
Renovation of a school building at Kasokwe Primary School
One of the school buildings at Kasokwe Primary School, Uganda was in an extremely poor state of repair.
Summer projects in Kenya and Thailand
"I never took a gap year in the traditional sense of a year out. Instead each summer since my A-levels and through university I have gone away on a project."

The Ugandans you meet will change you. They will show you love and wisdom. The things you discover about yourself in Uganda will stay with you forever.

U.S. Attorney Brendan Johnson says his office has determined that "some" of the four or five unresolved death cases on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation that have been reviewed should be closed.
Johnson says his office has completed a review of a fraction of the approximately 60 deaths presented to him by members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe. The tribe, which is headquartered on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, asked Johnson last year to review the unresolved deaths.
The FBI refused to reinvestigate the cases without new information. A report released in 2000 detailed the FBI's decision to close 57 cases, but tribal leaders say that report is questionable.
Johnson would not go into specifics about the cases. He says more information will be released in the spring.

"One Voice" Youth Activists Work for Mideast Peace.
By Rich Fisher
Tulsa, OK – Today we hear from two representatives of One Voice, a grassroots youth oriented Mideast peace advocacy group. Itamir Cohen, an Israeli software designer, and Dahlia Labadi, a Palestinian graduate student, share their disagreements on the conflict and their unanimity that a two state solution with a viable peaceful Israel and Palestine is the only answer to a permanent peace in the Mideast.

John Brennan, deputy national security adviser for homeland security and counterterrorism, is President Obama's choice to lead the CIA. (White House photo)
President Barack Obama has nominated his chief counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, as the new director of the Central Intelligence Agency, reports CNN.
Brennan, whose official title is deputy national security adviser for homeland security and counterterrorism, has served at the spy agency for 25 years. If the Senate confirms the nominee, Brennan will replace Gen. David Petraeus, who stepped down Nov. 9, 2012 after admitting an extramarital affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell.
After joining the CIA in 1980, Brennan held various roles at the agency, including Near East and South Asia analyst, chief of staff and first director of the National Counterterrorism Center. He also served as intelligence briefer for President Bill Clinton. In 2009, Brennan was named assistant to the president for counterterrorism and homeland security.
In 2005, Brennan left government and spent three years in private industry, serving as president and CEO of The Analysis Corporation, now named Sotera Defense, a security technology company. He also chaired the Intelligence and National Security Alliance.
Along with news of Brennan's new role, Politico reported Jan. 7 that Obama will also announce his nomination of former Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.) as the next defense secretary, replacing Leon Panetta who took office July 1, 2011.

A lack of treatment services for addicted youth is the biggest issue surrounding legal highs, a Mt Eden addiction centre says.
Associate Health Minister Peter Dunne announced on Sunday the government would introduce legislation to remove synthetic drugs from sale until they could be proven low-risk.
The law change is to be introduced to Parliament under urgency next week.
Odyssey House chief executive Philip Grady says the biggest issue is access to treatment.
There needs to be more treatment options, particularly in schools, for young people with addiction problems, he says.
"What we're seeing is an increase in people presenting who have used synthetic drugs, particularly in the youth age group.
"There's not enough services for youth on the ground.
"While there are a range of initiatives that are being put in place . . . there's not a consistent way of providing services to youth who have addiction problems."
The Psychoactive Substances Act came into force last July to regulate the manufacture and sale of legal-high products.
Since then the number of shops selling them dropped from about 4000 unregulated sellers to less than 170 licenced premises, according to the Ministry of Health.
The number of products was slashed from 200 to less than 50.
Mayor Len Brown is pleased with the latest moves to ban all products.
"I was raised in a community in Otara with dak houses; well, you just shut them down," Brown says.
"If that's where illegal drug activity occurs, well, you just keep the pressure on at both a law enforcement, council and community activity front . . . you just keep the pressure on and shut it down."
The government acted on information from the Ministry of Health that legal highs did not cause unnecessary health problems, which was incorrect, he says. But it's the role of government, charity and community groups to put more funds into rehabilitation services, Brown says.
The industry body that represents most retailers licensed under the psychosubstances act, Star Trust, says the government's "shock announcement" contradicts earlier assertions that bans don't work.
"It screams of political posturing in election year," research manager Angela McInerney says.
"It will cause businesses to shut down, staff to be laid off and otherwise law-abiding Kiwis to deal with organised crime."
Reports of youth vomiting blood and having psychotic episodes are "emotional and unsubstantiated", McInerney says.
"They are unsubstantiated about what products they're using, how they're using the products and what they're using them with.
A lot of the problems are caused by alcohol and synthetics combined.
"We know that the market and demand for products that are not alcohol is still there."
Brown says he met with Prime Minister John Key on Monday to offer council's help.
He says he is looking forward to working with the government.

Special Ability wise, Bop has cloak, AE has MV. AE has to give up sci slot for it giving an edge to the bird, but lets be honest, sci slot is **** on a bird and AE anyways. Ill gladly trade two of my sci slots for a 4th tactical on my bird.
Overall this ship has more hull, more shields, better turn, more weapons (more damage, period), more bridge officers, more tact consoles (more damage, period) and more weapon power. The Bird has 1 more eng console, but itll just be used as resistance to help make up the difference in the hull.
People will say "but Birds have universal consoles"...yes but this does not matter when the feds have 10 ships with every viable configuration. All of our birds are Tact Commander/Sci LTC to maximize spike. Everyone has to have an Engy LT. The difference is in that last lt universal. If Bird goes tact theyre completely outmatched as they just copied the AE. 2nd Engy LT...meh. Sci is the only option, which I would us for polarize to get out of tractors (can get omeg to do this on escort) and sci team (which i wouldnt use on escort anyways when you can have two tact teams to do even more damage).
But we all know this ship was made to bring in the $$ so honestly there isnt much point in arguing it. This is easily the best Escort in the game. It completely makes fleet and advanced escort obsolete. The amount of damage this thing can do without any penalty to defense is just ridiculous tho
You missed faster moving and better inertia.
I can't believe I'm going to say this, but damn have I missed Beagles. He's absolutely right and is saying the same thing that I have been saying all along. As more and more ships are released with ever increasing boff variation the BoP's killer feature begins to look less appealing -- and the price it had to pay for that killer feature looks more and more steep. No matter what Cryptic does to the MVAM mode itself, the MVAM escort will always be OP because of the near ideal boff layout. At this point to make things equal again Cryptic will need to buff the BoP's health, add in an ensign slot, add another rear weapon, or some combination of the three. Of course, that will just just make each faction have one obviously OP escort that invalidates every other choice, but at least it would be balanced. Really, Cryptic never should have let it get this bad in the first place.
And to those that say "but it has less spike than the regular AE to compensate for the ltc sci", well, there's a reason no BoP pilot in his right mind runs a Cmdr and Ltc tac together.
Really, it would be nice if there were more "forum warriors" than me and a couple others trying to stop these things from happening. We banded together on spam and Cryptic finally listened, why couldn't we do the same for MVAM? Of course, there are probably at least a few fed PVPers who don't mind get awesome, unbalancing toys

Boys basketball: Battle Lake plays like fourth-ranked team it is
The Brandon-Evansville boys basketball team became another victim of a deep and talented Battle Lake squad on Thursday night as the Battlers improved to 17-0 with a 67-25 win in Brandon.
The fourth-ranked team in Class A took care of the Chargers with a business-like approach. The Battlers used their defense to create some good looks in transition and build an early lead. They quickly pulled away from there, taking a 37-12 lead into the break.

Entertainment Tonight
Barbara Walters is still recovering from a weekend fall that derailed her plans to cover Monday's presidential inauguration, and "The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg gave an update on her condition on Tuesday's show.
"Barbara went to Washington to cover the inauguration. She missed a step and had a fall, which cut her upper temple," Goldberg said. "The doctors stitched her up and she is doing fine, but they want her to take it easy."
VIDEO: Stars send well-wishes to Barbara Walters
Goldberg then read a statement from Walters, in which the 83-year-old newswoman said that she wanted to "thank all the people who have called, written and been concerned about me."
"I am running a low-grade fever and the doctors are keeping me in the hospital until my temperature is normal," Walters explained. "I'm pleased to say that it is going in the right direction and I will be home soon."

Walters fell Saturday on a stair while visiting the British Ambassador's residence in Washington, D.C. and was taken to the hospital so doctors could examine the cut on her head.

Man killed in Rt. 104 crash was speeding, witnesses say | The Columbus Dispatch
A man was killed yesterday when he was thrown from his car during a crash on the South Side. Read more

The speed limit on this portion of 104 is 55 MPH and traffic runs 70. When the limit changes from 65 to 55 as you head west, motorist ignore the drop.
#2 Nov 10, 2010
This route is always dangerous. A lot of this comes from whatever jurisdiction sets the speed limit. From Rt. 33 to somewhere near Lockbourne Rd. the speed limit is 65. The for some reason and in a very unclear location, it drops to 55. This is a controlled access highway. There is absolutely no good reason for the change in speed limits. I can see dropping it half way between the High St. exit and the traffic light at Jackson Pike because of the need to start slowing down for the intersection. Also, try to go 55 when you do get in the slower zone. You will get tailgated, run over, cussed out, flipped off, etc from the driver's behind you. Then, there is always the idiot driver who gets on 104 either at 33 or straight off Refugee Rd and stays in the passing lane all the way to 71 and either drive right at 65 mph or even lower. This is the passing lane people..........move over to the right lane! And, come on City of Columbus or State of Ohio..........do something about the sudden and unnecessary drop in speed limit. This causes more accidents than speeding because people who try to obey the limit get passed on all sides by folks who stay at 65 or higher. They also make sudden and dangerous lane changes to get around. Somebody needs to study this and get it corrected!
#6 Nov 10, 2010
No seatbelt. Excessive Speed. Ejected. Very poor driving record ........ Yep Suicide by Old Cadillac.
#7 Nov 10, 2010
Memo to the city of Columbus - there has been a recliner sitting against the retaining wall ... going west - for about 4 days now! Anyway care to get that removed or is that where Coleman sits to monitor the progress of the city??
#8 Nov 10, 2010
Suicide By Stupidity. No other cause. He did have a very poor driving record and was flat arse flying and didn't wear his seatbelt ....
#9 Nov 10, 2010
I'm not sure why, maybe people heading to the dump off of Groveport, but oftentimes there will be objects along that section of 104. Tables, chairs, mattresses etc....
#10 Nov 10, 2010
We don't really live forever.
#11 Nov 10, 2010
Well that's understandable but you'd think after 2-3 days one of the MANY cops that patrol this area would make a call and have it removed - before someone in the fast lane clips this thing and sends it flying over the wall and into oncoming traffic heading east?? The doughnut shops will still be open - take 5 mins of your day and get this removed! A little common sense please!
#12 Nov 10, 2010
You can call 20 times to get an item removed from side of road but that does not mean ODOT will get to it. Records indicate that not one "citizen" whining here ever placed a call to anyone about that chair.
#13 Nov 10, 2010
Why should we have to place a call? Isn't that your job - I can guarantee you that more than 50 cop cars have driven right by this thing in the last 4 days! They do so while on their way to the Jackson Pike jail - correct? Anyone here have ODOT's number on your contact list on your cell phone? Puh-leeeaase!
#14 Nov 10, 2010
Then why would we call them??? Sheesh!
United States
#15 Nov 10, 2010
Chan think Marcus should note that deputy retired. It say so in his name. It not his job anymore. Maybe Marcus be a good citizen and not complain and point finger, just make the call.
#16 Nov 10, 2010
to all who is saying sucide is very disrespectifull. He was a very young man with a wife and a toddler and a newborn just a couple of weeks old. prayers for the family.
#17 Nov 10, 2010
My prayers do go out to him. However, GOD did give us a brain and he expects us to use it and LISTEN TO HIM and to OBEY the laws of those appointed over us. Those who don't end up like this guy so it might as well be SUICIDE.

The present incumbent M S Mehta, whose term ends on Tuesday, has agreed to continue till March
London-listed Vedanta Resources is looking to appoint a new Chief Executive as the present incumbent M S Mehta has agreed to continue for only 3 months.
Term of Mehta, who turned 58 on December 8, was coming to an end today. In Vedanta, 58 is the superannuation age.
"The search is progressing well and the Nominations Committee expects to make an announcement on the above matter in the coming months," Vedanta said in a statement today.
It added that "M S Mehta's contractual term as CEO of Vedanta Resources plc is due to expire today. M S Mehta has agreed to extend his employment contract until 31 March 2014 while the Nominations Committee concludes the search for his successor."
Industry sources said former Rio Tinto head Tom Albanese is the front runner for the post.
The 56—year old mining honcho joined Vedanta group as chairman of its subsidiary Vedanta Resources Holdings Ltd (VRHL)—— the holding company of Sesa Sterlite and Konkola Copper Mines—— in September, nine months after his exit from Rio Tinto.
The sources added that Vedanta is looking to appoint a CEO who can help the company in repositioning itself as a global miner as well as in improving its image.
Despite being among the top ten mining firms in the world, Vedanta is perceived by the global community as an India focused miner as majority of its operations are located here.
Besides, the mining conglomerate has been facing lot of flak in recent times from activists over its alleged poor track record on environment, safety and human rights. During this year's annual general meeting, activists from a campaigning organisation had protested outside the AGM venue against its plans to drill bauxite in Odisha's Niyamgiri hills.
The future move of Mr. Mehta is not known yet. He had joined Vedanta group in 2000 as senior Vice President in erstwhile Sterlite Industries and rose to serve the group in different capacities, including as CEO to various group companies —— Sesa Sterlite, Sterlite Industries and Hindustan Zinc.
Mr. Mehta is credited with simplifying the complex group structure of Vedanta and taking the company to new heights.
Interestingly, last week Vedanta had alloted 34,750 company shares to Albanese worth 3,06,578.80 GBP. Post these transactions, Albanese holds 65,250 Vedanta shares, having 0.024 per cent stake and has highest number of shares among company executives other than promoters.
Mr. Mehta holds 48,697 shares (0.02 per cent stake) of the company.

Yeah but who cares about thugvon he was a violent criminal and the world is a better place since hero George Zimmerman exercised his right to self defense against the animal.
Thank goodness for self defense patriots!
Thank goodness for Mr. Zimmerman!
Thank goodness for heros like self defense patriot George Zimmerman! Thank goodness!
He was a thug!
Thank goodness for heros like self defense patriot Mr. Zimmerman!
people sue states and state agencies all the time. Wow you are dumb.
you're a moron dude. You can sue the justice system. I have done it people are doing it right now so that previous case seems to have not made it impossible to sue the justice system.
I had to sue them to get my car back once. They are getting sued big time in florida right now. They get sued all the time.
You sue the city or state or country that owns that legal system and yes you can.
Self defense patriot George Zimmerman is a hero and sandford Florida is lucky to have him!
Zimmerman will just sue the legal system since its reckless prosecution so its a huge waste of money
Thank goodness for American hero self defense patriot george Zimmerman!
Thank goodness for self defense hero Mr Zimmerman!
Thank goodness that citizen was there or thugvon wouldve gotten away!
When you are ambushed you must defend and that is all that has occured. Z man is a HERO.
what do you have against law enforcement groups such as the neighborhood watch? A man had every right to defend himself from such as savage ambush.
And if the neighborhood watch wasn't there that night? Its horrific to think of what might have happened. Thugvon would have gotten away for sure.
he is a great man
Thank goodness that brave neighborhood watchman was their to take out the trash that night! We can all sleep a little better knowing that thugvon coon didn't get away!

For most youth workers, few things in ministry are as dreaded as navigating conflictŌĆöespecially when it comes in the form of an angry parent or frustrated volunteer and when it comes suddenly and unexpectedly.
You know the scenario: YouŌĆÖre hanging out in the youth room doing your youth pastor thing, and before you see it coming, heŌĆÖs in your face. HeŌĆÖs on a mission. HeŌĆÖs got a few concerns, and heŌĆÖs gonna share them with you right now. He has no desire to think about the timing. His agenda is the only one that matters. HeŌĆÖs a ticking time bomb, and time is running out.
DonŌĆÖt panicŌĆöwhat looks like an explosion waiting to happen can usually be defused quite easily and turned into something positive. Here are steps I try to take in these types of scenarios to defuse the bomb.
1. Directly engage. ItŌĆÖs tempting to try to avoid the person, especially since youŌĆÖve got a program to run. But time bombs canŌĆÖt be ignored. They demand the proper attention. IŌĆÖve learned the best thing to do is to proactively engage the person immediately. This lets the reasonable person know youŌĆÖre concerned that heŌĆÖs concerned about something, and it lets the unreasonable hothead know that you arenŌĆÖt afraid to engageŌĆöthat you wonŌĆÖt be bullied or intimidated.
2. DonŌĆÖt get defensive. This isnŌĆÖt the time to defend yourself. The truth of the matter is that most frustrated folks simply want to be heard. When you take a defensive posture, you reinforce their suspicions and concerns. However, when your first response is to acknowledge their concerns and listen to what they have to say, it shows them their concerns are important to you and things (usually) begin to cool down right away.
3. Delay the rest of the conversation. Chances are you wonŌĆÖt be able to address the entire issue in the two to three minutes you can afford to give this person before youth group, so donŌĆÖt try. Instead suggest that you delay the rest of the conversation to a later time in the very near future. Invite them to coffee or lunch, and let them know you would welcome the opportunity to continue the conversation at that time.
This will do two things: It will give everybody time to cool down and think about the issue at hand, and it will communicate youŌĆÖre taking their concern very seriously and want to address it as best you can.
IŌĆÖve learned over the years that trying to avoid frustrated, angry people almost always serves to make the situation worse. But when IŌĆÖm willing to directly engage, when I donŌĆÖt get defensive and when I offer to reconnect about it later, I not only defuse the bomb but also often build trust and loyalty along the way.
Kurt Johnston has been on staff at Saddleback Church since 1997 and currently leads the student ministry team. He is the founder of simplyjuniorhigh.com and has written numerous books, including Middle School Ministry Made Simple, and has created dozens of resources for youth workers.
