Ashley Tisdale Grows Up In The TBS Comedy 'Clipped'
July 26, 2012 04:00 PM EDT
Robin Scorpio-Drake was suspected of having died in a lab fire on "General Hospital" earlier this year, but as recent episodes have shown, Kimberly McCullough's character is back.
"She's back for a little bit," executive producer Frank Valentini explained on Thursday at the ABC portion of the Television Critics Association summer tour, of the recent return of the much-beloved actress, who grew up on the long-running soap.
Asked by AccessHollywood.com how he wooed her back, Valentini said he cited the legacy McCullough created on the show.
"It's always challenging when actors want to try and pursue a different avenue in their personal life or in their professional life and I think for Kimberly, she had made the decision a long time ago to leave the show, and for the last, I believe the last six or eight weeks we worked together, we kind of had a really nice bond," he said. "She's a really bright, exceptional young woman. Having grown up on the show, I think she's been exposed to so many aspects of the business in such a short period of time.
"She's very interested in being a director and she and I kind of connected because I'm a director as well and I said, 'This is such a wonderful thing that you've created, let's try and keep it alive as opposed to sort of snubbing it out,'" he continued. "And she's open to it and we're going to try and work together and it's also good because she lives in Los Angeles, so it's a little bit easier."
"And who doesn't want to do a story about electric shock?" Jason Thompson, who plays Dr. Patrick Drake, Robin's husband, chimed in, referring to Wednesday's episode which saw medical professionals gearing up to perform the procedure on a restrained Robin.
During the panel sessions, which also featured Laura Wright (Carly), Jane Elliot (Tracy), Anthony Geary (Luke), Maurice Benard (Sonny), recent Daytime Emmy winner Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis), Steve Burton (Jason), Kelly Monaco (Sam) and Michael Easton (John), the actors were asked about the new blood on the show, including Easton, who came in after ABC pulled the plug on "One Life To Live."
"I love that there's new blood," Benard said. "They're bringing, I think, a different element to Sonny that wasn't there before, maybe a little bit more vulnerable towards the way Michael plays it and stuff, and Roger [Howarth]… he can be funny and all that, but I love it, I enjoy it."
As for Easton, whose John McBain character from "OLTL" was given a new life in Port Charles on "General Hospital," he said he feels energized by having joined the cast.
"It's been exciting to come over and get to work with these guys," he said. "It's been a new energy for me. I think we were pretty aware for a year there at 'One Life' that the wrecking ball was right outside the door and we worked at a pretty high pace to have that work, and it's been interesting to come over here and have the same feeling, and I think the only we're going to advance this is we'll do inspired storytelling and recapture the audience that maybe we've lost and try to bring them back and show them that we're doing some things that are exciting and different.
"It woke me up," he added of joining the "GH" cast. "These guys have snapped me out of it. I'm happy to be there, I feel really fortunate."
"General Hospital" moves to the new time of 2 PM ET, 1 PM PT on September 10 on ABC.

House of Hope
The quest to save the vulnerable of Florence.
Nov 11, 2013, Vol. 19, No. 09 • By ANN MARLOWE
Terpstra emphasizes that the Pietà not only allowed its charges unusual freedom and autonomy, but that it was governed in an unusually informal and responsive manner as well—by a circle of women donors, together with the warden. This changed when the Medicis took over and the directors became male. The once-rapid and informal admissions practice became protracted and difficult—and with fascinating consequences for the mortality of the girls.
What was killing these children and adolescents? Terpstra suggests several good answers, including one with which he skillfully shocks us. In the course of describing the mystery, Terpstra gives us only as many clues as he wants us to have at any given time, so the reader experiences the impact of progressive revelations much as a researcher would. While explaining his discoveries, Terpstra also takes us on a tour of a time and place many readers know something about. But readers who haven't focused on 16th-century Italy are in for some surprises.
I had no idea, for example, that medieval and Renaissance theologians didn't agree that life begins at conception, and that abortion, even fairly late-term abortion, was an open secret that might take place scarcely a day's journey from the Vatican. Nor did I know that silk and wool were already being produced under factory-like conditions in Renaissance Florence. Or that girls could hire themselves out as apprentices in weaving, sometimes to female master weavers. Or that Florence had cheap, city-run brothels to keep young unmarried men from assaulting respectable girls.
The poignant subtext to Terpstra's mystery is one he never mentions: the slow decline of Florence. The Medicis were great patrons, but as the 16th century wore on, the city, like the Casa della Pietà, became more organized, more secure—and less creative. During 1553-55, Michelangelo was working on the Pietà sculptures that are now in the Accademia and Museo dell'Opera del Duomo in Florence. But he would be dead 10 years later, and no one filled his shoes: Raphael and Leonardo had died decades earlier—as had, for that matter, Machiavelli. By the time the Casa della Pietà faded out in the 17th century, Florence was becoming a backwater.
It would be interesting to know how many of the women who contributed to the Pietà had an inkling that their city would be famous centuries later not for its power, or its social organization, or its riches, or even its piety, but for its art.
Ann Marlowe is the author, most recently, of David Galula: His Life and Intellectual Context.

Historical Traveler Reviews Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club Poipu
Paradise Found
We purchased a week pre construction, this was our first stay & could not be happier. Even with the construction there were no problems.
Steps to the beach, great pool and beautiful rooms. Could not find a negative..... Only if your looking for night life Kauai is not the island to on.
Great Vacation Spot
We stayed here in August of 2003. This is a new resort (about 1 year old) and the rooms are very nice. Note there are hotel rooms (only 7) at about 450 sq ft, and the 2 bedroom villas at about 1150 sq ft. The villas are the timeshares that are being sold. This resort is right next to Poipu beach and snorkling is excellent (take some fish food).
This resort is about half built; has a nice pool side bar for drinks and snacks. But, lacks a sit down resturant (to be added later). There is the Poipu Shopping center across the road (not within my walking distance) which has at least 3 good resturants. Also the Kiahuna Plantation is near with a nice garden resturant. Kauai is mostly for relaxing, sight seeing, and the ocean.
Fabulous rooms.. but boooring...
After booking this hotel through Marriott, we were told on the phone by hotel operator that 'no rooms overlooked a parking lot' and found when checking in that indeed 12 rooms did, we were assigned one of them!!
After my begging and clerk searching, we had to wait awhile to get a room that did have some sort of a view. Of course we did overlook construction which was very noisy during the day, but inside the villa made up for it. The rooms are fabulous! We were a party of 5, 3 children under 10 and the 2 beds/2 bath, full kitchen with granite countertops and living area were superb! But outside our room the hotel was nothing! A very boring small swimming pool (another under construction opening next summer) and no restaurant on premises so if you don't want to cook three meals a day, good luck! They do have a marketplace where you can get food to go, salads, pizza, and food for you room, milk, eggs, etc.. but very $$$$$$. We could not find a decent restaurant nearby, at least not for families. I would not recommend to anybody to visit this hotel until it is completed. Probably a year from now. I would also not purchase a timeshare here as you can purchase elsewhere for much less $$ and trade your week for this resort.
Great Vacation Destination
My husband and I visited the Waiohai on Kauai and were very impressed.
We purchased a timeshare there and reviewed all of the paperwork. We purchased one week-7 nights. The units do sleep 6 as there are three queen size beds in each timeshare unit. The resort is very well laid out and the furnishings are very tasteful. The decor is lovely with creams, reds and yellows-very tropical plantation looking. The sales staff was knowledgeable and all details were provided in writing. And, by law in Hawaii, we could change our mind and receive a full refund within 7 days of signing and paying the deposit with NO penalty. We have already scheduled our vacation for Spring of 2004-it was very easy with no hassles. The beach area is pristine and the grounds are immaculately kept. The pool that is complete is beautiful and clean with great landscaping. The second pool was under construction-it will have a sand beach and bottom! The resort has a great market where you can purchase milk, groceries, Starbuck's coffee, pizza, salads, sandwiches, T-shirts, golf shirts, beach toys, etc. Very convenient!
Every staff person I spoke to was friendly and accommodating. This is a fantastic property! Right next door is a great surfing beach with lots of sealife - sea turtles and a Hawaiian monk seal. Poipu Beach is a very short walk down the sidewalk. Lots of GREAT restaurants are also within walking distance.
People get this straight!
The Marriott Waiohai is a new timeshare opened on Poipu Beach in Kauai.
It has an awesome location on Poipu Beach, and provides great access to the island. The facility is still under construction, so all ammenities aren't done. The pools and beach are great, and this should be a good place when completed. I stayed in a two bedroom unit, with kitchen that slept eight. Awesome unit.Again, the construction was the only current drawback. I don't get the 70's decor review, or the Big Island review.
Finally, the small beach is at the Kanapali Beach Club, which was the facilty selling Waiohai until it opened. If your going to review, at least have the right property...
Loved the Waiohai
We stayed at the Waiohai in February and it was excellent. The rooms were beautifully furnished, in a casual resort type style that went with the nature of the place. Poipu is the sunniest part of the island and life here seems to revolve around the beach and sun more than nightlife. Kaiai as a whole is not big on nightlife. The beach is small but very beautiful as is the pool. There is an adjacent public beach next to it which gives the place a less insulated feel and beach walks will take you there and to the Sheraton easily.
Beware the timeshare trap
If you are reading this, thinking about signing up for a timeshare preview at this property beware!
Everything is agreed to verbally prior to the non refundable charge on your card, then watch out.
I have seen my six night stay change to a 5 night, and the "sleeps 6" changed to sleeps 4. I guess the other 2 kids get to sleep in the car, and we all get to sleep in the car for the final night.
Needless to say I am trying to cancel, but there doesn't seem to be any supervisors I can contact to discuss it
I expected this from a sleezy timeshare marketeer, not the Marriott
Got a Marriott Hotel room...
I spent 3 nights at the Marriott Waiohai Beach Club on Kauai. Yes, the establishment is on Kauai. The other reviewer was wrong about the location. The beach was too small, but the pools at the Marriott compensated for that. There are plenty of other beaches to go to. We got one of the hotel rooms. The bathroom was quite large, but overall the rooms were not as plush as I thought they would be. We went to see the 2 bedroom suites, and those were much nicer. For the amount of money I paid, I would stay at another place the next time I go to Kauai. The Poipu Beach area is a great place to stay at as a base point to reach all the attractions on the island.
Mistaken info
The person slamming the Waiohai Beach Hotel by Marriott is mistaken. That hotel is not on "The Big Island," but on Kauai. The hotel was only recently completed, and does not suffer from "dacor" (sic) from the 70s as the other reviewer has alleged.
Two Words: Popcorn Ceilings
My wife and I just returned from this hotel, where we checked out early because we felt more like we were on the gulf coast of Florida than we did Hawaii's Waikoloa coast. The hotel is, at best, mediocre. Despite its confusing labrynth of corridors, after changing rooms twice, we failed to find a single view worthy of the price or the time spent getting to the Big Island. The hotel needs to be seriously renovated, still bearing popcorn ceilings from the 1970's and the dacor of what one might expect from a mid-range Mexican hotel.The Marritt's restaurant did have decent food, but at $98 for dinner for two, it should have. But you should know to come early. They close the patio at 9PM and the bar at 11PM. Its almost as if someone forgot to remind these folks that people on vacation might want to feel like they're on vacation.Though the pool and jaccuzzi areas have been updated and are, in fact, quite nice, they quite apparently had to be, given the poor quality of the Marriott's beach, which is, to be frank, a poor excuse for what you might expect to find in Hawaii.We were so dissapointed in this hotel that we spent the entire next day following our arrival, driving to other hotels to see if they could accomodate a last minute booking. Do yourself a favor: If you really want to go to the Big Island, try the other resorts. Its worth the added cost to experience Hawaii.

Rock solid: Rising demand for residential construction will support industry recovery
The Tile & Marble Stores market research report provides key industry analysis and industry statistics, measures market size, analyzes current and future industry trends and shows market share for the industry's largest companies. IBISWorld publishes the largest collection of industry reports so you can see an industry's supply chain, economic drivers and key buyers and markets.
Much like many other textile industries, the Tile and Marble Stores industry was hit hard by the decline in residential and nonresidential construction brought on by the recession. As construction rates picked up, industry revenue has started to recover, but not yet to prerecession levels, and will not reach that level within the next five years. Though strong revenue and profit growth are expected, increasing external and internal competition will pose threats to the industry.... purchase to read more

i.e. my perfect result would be (see the tag shifted left after "Cherry orange"):

It's takes a little more effort than changing regular blades but they work so much better. A great investment.

Easy to install. Work really well. Entire blade wipes clean. First few times of use, wipe leaves cloudy or foggy trail on windshield that lasts for about 5 seconds before dissipating.

To install I had to buy a set of vacuum hose adapters since my vehicle had 1/4" tubing ($4 for the parts). I used two huge worm screw hose clamps to mount the bracket to my power brake booster, it works out well. Installation was easy once I figured out where to place the unit. In cold weather below 20F my wiper fluid will freeze to the windshield until the defroster warms the windshield, and I use high quality -20F fluid, wasn't expecting that.

A later-annie occurs in three steps. First a male and a female must engage in some sort of consentual sexual or pre-sexual activity. Secondly, the female partner must then make it clear that she does not plan on satisfying the male partner's sexual needs, in spite of his obvious arousal. Third, and finally, the male partner must take on the task of satisfying himself, hopefully doing so on an object belonging to his previous sexual partner. The later-annie is a convienient way to avoid blue balls, especially while intoxicated. It is also an excellent way to seek revenge on an unsatisfactory partner, (see slam piece). First timers may be shy, in that case feel free to scream the words "later aaaannie" in an obnoxiously loud voice while completing the act. Doing so will boost your confidence and make you look cooler. Please use protection.
Dude, did you see Jack later-annie all over Chris' top siders?

Is the seam allowance already added?
I am currently preparing the pattern for Flounce dress 114 on 05/2012. You have to measure out flounce pieces by cutting out a piece 120cm long and 30.5cm wide and some other pieces similarly (i.e. not on pattern sheets). My question is does this already include a 1cm seam allowance or do I have to add this on as well?

It's usually 1.5cm they say to add with burda patterns but you can play around with how much you give yourself. I've always added it to the flounces too. It usually says something in the cutting out instructions if there are any pieces you don't need to add it too

Screening at SXSW:Read More »
I want a comic book film that doesn't pander to first-time audiences and also doesn't deny the fact that these characters live in worlds where death rays and super-powers are commonplace. Is that so much to ask? I guess so. In my recent search for comic book movies that are out there and exciting and yes, maybe consistently engaging enough to be worth seeking out, I focused primarily on the Marvel Comics movies that time forgot, by which I mean that I sought out made-for-TV projects that have been buried by Marvel and have yet to surface on DVD or Blu-ray.Read More »
Dimanche/Sunday. It seemed promising despite the crude animation; the sound design is witty, and it started out as a sort of fantasia on how children perceive things. But it keeps killing animals off horribly for no reason, and the surrealism comes and goes when it's convenient. A clearer visual style might have helped, but I don't think it knows what it's trying to say.Read More »
Leopold Socha (Robert Wieckiewicz) is a sewer inspector in Nazi-occupied Lvov; he's also a thief, robbing abandoned houses to provide for his family, and he and his partner Szczepek (Krzysztof Skonieczny) hide the spoils in the watery catacombs beneath the city. One day in 1942, the burglars run into another group in the sewers: Jewish families who have dug down through the floor of an apartment in the ghetto, knowing that going literally underground is their only chance to survive. Socha agrees to help them, but only a dozen of them, and only for $500 a week.Read More »

I really wonder what it is that Obama has on Judge Roberts. Today the Judge is saying the court can't do what they did on the gay marriage issue. Exactly the opposite of what he said yesterday about Obamacare. It's sure strange and appears that the Judge is being blackmailed.

Roberts was blackmailed. Robert and his wife illegally adopted two children. It is all over the internet. You can google Roberts illegally adopted children. He sold us to protect his family.
Here is a link:

I am unable to post my Justice Roberts comment here. What in the world does this mean? I only have English words in my post. I don't know HTML.

Bettijo, I do know HTML, and if you copied another on-line article, and tried to paste it in, you might have gotten something HTML inadvertently.

I don't think Roberts is being blackmailed. I think he is simply not the "balls and strikes" jurist he told us he would be on the court. The New York Times tried hard to get the adoption records unsealed while Roberts was being considered for the Court, but was unsuccessful. They were never able to show any illegality about the adoption. The theory arises from the fact that Ireland does not allow private adoptions or any adoption to non-residents. The Robertses have a home in Ireland and roots there, but they weren't really residents. The children went from Ireland to South American where the adoption process was begun and completed. Since the birth mothers were apparently fine with the adoption process, there was little for the Times to uncover or for anyone to blackmail Justice Roberts with. The blackmail idea is just an idea. I'm as disappointed in him as anyone, but I believe Occam's Razor applies here. The simplest and most obvious reason for his votes is that he was never the justice we anticipated.

I agree with SC. Justice Roberts is a huge disappointment. Dems can always count on their appointees to vote the party line....Reps, not so much.

Mr. Know-It-All
And some folks insist we must vote for a republican POTUS because of the importance of SCOTUS appointments. Yet look how few of those actually turn out for the good.
We need a POTUS with the stones to find more Scalias and Thomases to nominate, but none of the wishy washy establishment types would be willing to brave the storm of leftist criticism if he did so.

Remember that Roberts was not GWB's first choice, but he had been warned by the Dem Senate that getting anyone approved would be tough. If you remember, the Dems and the NY Times tried diligently to sufficiently trash both Roberts and Alito that they could not be confirmed. Alito is a wonderful jurist, Roberts has been a disappointment. GeorgeW wanted Alberto Gonzales on the Court and he would have been a fine conservative Judge, but the Dems were worried about his stance on abortion and made it clear he had no chance. With a GOP controlled Senate after a 2016 GOP presidential win, it should be easier to get the best SCOTUS nominees approved.

Well, another brilliant comment was bounced by the word police. The word I used was qu**r. Please tell me, gentle readers, why a word as common as qu**r is no longer allowed in a polite and civilized conversation.
We are forced by the PC crowd to refer to abnormal behavior as 'gay'.
To me 'gay' is the New Years Eve ball in the Grand Vienna Hotel, with the women in beautiful gowns and the men in Tuxedos all gaily dancing to Strauss waltzes.
Gay is also how a family feels on Christmas morning opening present around the tree.
Gay used to be a happy word, now it's a negative.
This is what drives it.

It seems to me that there are any number of "mainstream" words that don't get through the filter here, and yet, there are new posters at the site who are getting away with really vile things. Variations of the "Eff word" and words referring to a certain part of the female anatomy being the two I've noticed most recently.
No one seems to care, and yet, I've seen the staff come on and jump on people for things that aren't nearly as bad.
It seems that some of the new ones haven't gotten the message that Lucianne is a Salon, not a Saloon, and the staff is asleep at the switch.

Let's hope the people Ms. Clinton sent e-mails to, are scared enough to give those e-mails up. Maybe we should start asking "who is going to go to jail to save Hillary"? I don't think there are too many who are willing to go to the mat for her. Who is going to cover up for Hillary? Let's make that the question heard all over the internet! Put the heat on!!!

Don't you just love the new Net Neutrality rules? Some people do, and I find it mind blowing. Over 300 pages of new rules, none of these idiots have seen, and they are all for it! Don't they remember the "we have to pass it to see what's in it" Obamacare bill?

As I have often said: Welcome to the New Communism of unnecessary, over-reaching, over-bearing, out-of-control, dictatorial "regulation" where the convoluted, wrap-around, pretzel-logic of Leftist Liberal "Utopia" can find you guilty of just about anything if they look hard enough!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my L.Dotter friends and their families. We are all so lucky to live in the U.S. People like you are the reason this country is so great. I often wonder about other countries, and why they are so backward. My friend was from East Germany, and the city he grew up in was over 1000 years old! We sent him off to meet his maker wearing the Proud to be an American T-Shirt he loved. I'm proud to have known him. If any of you have seen the movie "Night Crossing" you will understand what life was like for him and his family in East Germany. That movie is a true story about a family trying to escape to the west in a homemade hot air balloon. My friend got his family out in 1976. It was almost impossible, but he made it happen.

Please people, don't let the media get away with the amnesty story they are putting out. Remind people the ILLEGALS are not just here ILLEGALLY, they are committing IDENTITY THEFT. Even the President says they are working here, but doesn't mention they have to be committing IDENTITY THEFT if they are. IDENTITY THEFT and FRAUD! Ask the media if the ILLEGALS are using THEIR Social Security Number. Most people won't know their S.S.N. is being used, at least until they file for Social Security. People on Social Security have had their accounts screwed up by ILLEGALS because income has been reported on their account, when the account holder has not worked. Just try to get that straightened out!

Yes, it is identity theft and fraud just like it is fraud for people to vote who are not citizens. Voter fraud is a felony. Folks who have been convicted of felonies should be denied citizenship.

The city of Houston is going after 5 pastors for what they preach in their sermons. They are claiming the pastors are Homophobic, and need to be taught a lesson about being more progressive. Guess what group is not being called out. That's right none of the 10 mosques in the greater Houston area are being asked to change their stand on homosexuality. How about that!

Here is a good question for your liberal friends. It will point out the difference between liberals and their "feelings" and conservatives and their "logic".
The city says "homeless people are people too, and deserve a hot shower". We therefore will offer vouchers for showers to be taken at the city pool. A city police officer visiting the city pool notices "known criminals, up to and including registered sex offenders" as well as drug offenders at the pool. Now ask your liberal friends if they would send their children to that pool? Of course they would! Homeless people are people too! Conservative logic says the liberal city compassion has ruined summer for the kids. This has happened in the city of Seaside, Oregon. Reported today in the Eugene Register Guard.

Just got home from seeing the movie "America". It is worth going to see. I haven't been to a movie in years. This is because I refuse to line the pockets of the Hollywood leftists. I went to see this movie to support the telling of the truth of what America is really about. I urge everyone to go and see it for themselves.

Yes, D'Souza's 2014 America movie is worth seeing! It is interesting and informative. And if anyone here has watched videos of the Sopranos enough to remember, you'll smile when young Anthony Soprano's history book's author Zinn gets raked over the coals.
Pickle1 is right -- Heaven is Real is really good too! It is lovely.
My husband and I do not boycott the leftists' movies, but 99% of them are dreck aimed at young people. Crude comedies, boring explosion-chase action, and warped dramas with no redemption. We think life is hard enough and many problems tedious enough -- why pay to see more of that?

PRLog - July 17, 2012 - In any software firm agile product development lifecycle as well as project management are best practices. With the help of effective Agile Tools one can easily bring improvements in their business. The firms that are using Scurm teams via Agile methods allow the software project members to manage their task properly as well as effectively that helps in saving time.
This task-oriented approach is very much preferred by the project managers, as it is definite and concrete. In recent times more and more firms are adopting Agile methods in order to meet the demands from its customers and in a less expensive way. However, experts recommend that organizations must understand the reasons behind that why it want to adopt agile followed by establishing that whether the approach is correct or not. No two firms work in same manner and whether it's the organizational structure, project scheduling, product planning, everything differs and this things must be taken into considerations while selecting the tool. Thus, in order to achieve success it is important for the organization to understand their needs precisely.
In majority of the organizations when it comes to software development projects, they are usually approaching with the help of Agile Tools. There are many benefits related to the approach of agile management in their projects. It helps to minimize the risk and allows the organization to deliver the project on time without any error. Some of the agile methodologies are component based development, building from pre-existing parts as well as helping team members to work together.
Some of the other factors that an organization should keep in mind while selecting Agile tools is the simplicity. Similar to the agile development, the tools must be simpler. The firm must keep in mind that the tools are never ever replacing the advantages coming from daily planning, personal communication, product reviews as well as retrospectives.
Thus, you can understand if Agile Tools are selected wisely, it definitely helps to implement the strategies. The selection procedure of these tools must be conducted very thoroughly if the organization wants to reap the full benefits and deliver the projects successfully.

I can't believe we are already this close, but the deadline to sign up as a Run for the Call team member for the Flying Pig Marathon weekend is this Saturday! April 18th is the last day to register online using the discount code. With that code, however, you get the early bird price that you could only get through the end of October! So, if you have yet to decide which race you will run at the Pig this year or if you have just been procrastinating, save yourself close to 30% off your race registration and support a great cause in the meantime!
The Run-a-Thon is On!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Jesus Christ is Risen!
No longer are we a people waiting in doubt and darkness, now we are a people of hope and light! What better way to celebrate that wonderful news than to get out on the streets and trails and proclaim the good news with our bodies!
The Run for the Call Run-a-Thon has begun and while we may be off to a slow start, I know our miles will multiply quickly as we get more and more members joining the team and reporting their mileage. That's all you need to do.
Go to our Join the Team page, fill in the information and sign up for the Run-a-thon. Tell us how many miles you intend to run and hit the road. We'll send you the name of a seminarian for whom we ask you to pray throughout your runs (you'll find that running for someone else will help you stay motivated). At the end of each week, tell us how many miles you've run that week and we'll tally it all up! Together we can do great things!
So, are you training for a race? Are you in track and have to run at practice? Are you just trying to stay in shape? Do you already have a running team but your team wants to support a great organization? Have you always wanted to run a particular distance and haven't found the right motivation? This is a great opportunity to do all those things and spread the message of vocations. Let's run 5000 miles together and see how many lives we can change in the process!
Run-a-thon Returns for Easter
As the year moves swiftly by, the time for the Flying Pig Marathon quickly approaches and we are now just one month away from the deadline to register online for the Flying Pig and use our discount code. So, don't delay!
For those of you who will not be able to attend the Flying Pig events, we have a very special Run-a-Thon planned for this year. Instead of simply tabulating the training miles you will be running in the month leading up to the marathon, we are going to incorporate the joy of the Easter season into our running! So, this year's Run-a-thon will cover the entire 50 days from Easter Sunday to Pentecost during which, with the Church, we will celebrate the new life gained for us by the suffering, dying, and rising of Jesus Christ. We will share that life with those for whom we will run and we will reach for a lofty goal!
In 50 days, it is our goal to run 5000 miles. Of course, if we add this up, that is a mere 100 miles per day for the entire team of runners. That is an achievable goal and one that we hope to find great support for as we have in our previous three years.
So, go to our team page and register for the Run-a-thon and let us know how many miles you intend to run (or walk) in those 50 days. We will collect those names, put them into an online pledge form and send you the link on Easter Day that you can forward to all your friends and family. I look forward to running with you and spreading the good news of Christ's resurrection!
Two Fundraising Opportunities
Lent has just begun and we here in Cincinnati have suddenly been hit with that "awful" winter that had been so loudly predicted back in November. We made it through December and January and most of February before it hit us here, but it seems it was at the absolute best time. We get to spend time with our families with many opportunities to offer pray together, offer sacrifice together and generally get Lent off on the right foot.
Additionally, it has given us opportunities to look for ways to give alms as a family and Run for the Call is giving your family two great ways to do that with fundraising events coming up in the month of March.
On Saturday, March 21, the Sidney/St. Mary's Serra Club is hosting a Spaghetti Dinner to support our seminarians through Run for the Call. This dinner will take place from 5-7pm at the Russia Catholic War Veterans Hall (located at 2444 Kelch Rd. Russia, Oh 45363). Donations for the cost of dinner and to support our seminarians will be taken at the door.
For those in Cincinnati, on Saturday, March 28th, the 4th Annual Young Adult Square Dance will be held at St. Maximilian Kolbe parish in Liberty Township. This dance, which runs from 7-11pm, will feature live square dance caller Zeke Regula (a crowd favorite) every hour and DJ filling in the gaps all night long. The cost for this event is $8/person (which covers the cost of food and refreshments) and will also offer other opportunities to support the seminarians throughout the night.
Both of these events are popular events with great opportunities to offer alms to support those who may one day serve our Archdiocese as priests.
A Pack of Running Disciples
Over the past three years, Run for the Call has consistently grown and developed. We humbly began our work thinking almost entirely of the financial benefit we could give our seminarians who need extra assistance in paying for the tuition costs of a seminary education. As more people got on board with the efforts, however, we realized just how shortsighted that focus was and just how great of an opportunity we had unwittingly created.
The truth is running is something that speaks to the core of so many people across all levels of faith and backgrounds.
"-The reason we race isn't so much to beat each other but to be with each other.
-The Hopis consider running a form of prayer; they offer every step as a sacrifice to a loved one, and in return ask the Great Spirit to match their strength with some of his own."
― Christopher McDougall, Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen
Interestingly enough, I found the above quote to be more than just true, it was a revelation. In fact, it was a resonation of something we sort of realized early on but didn't make a central tenant of all that we are doing here. We race to be with each other, whether that is in mind, body or spirit. We run because, in our running, we make a connection with our fellow man in a way not so easily found in our every day lives. Our running becomes a form of prayer and all we want to do is pray more. We want to keep offering that sacrifice on behalf of so many people in our lives and specifically (for our group) our seminarians. We run out of love and in turn we learn to love more!
That is the challenge our team expects to call all runners to. Like every other part of the world, there are runners all over this Archdiocese. Most of them are out running on their own, on their own schedule, doing what they can, but what would it look like if those runners started coming together on a regular basis to become a running group? What would it look like if those runners, in those running groups, started challenging each other to become better runners and in so doing, perhaps even to become better people simply by running together? What would it look like if each group of runners made each other committed to running, to praying for someone in need and then that prayer eventually turned into action to help those in need? What if in the course of becoming better individuals those runners also became better Christians? And what if, in the midst of all that helping and praying, that group suddenly found itself ready for even bigger and better things? Things that would change the way their parishes and communities would look for any foreseeable future?! You know what that would look like? That would look like a pack of running disciples! And that is what Run for the Call is looking to accomplish through you!
Starting today, we want you to do nothing different than what you were doing, but instead of you running with your headphones on, we want you to be on the look out for fellow runners. Start looking to build your team. As you do, ask God to help you find those team members. Ask him to show you the opportunities to build your team. Then, as your team develops, continue to pray for the grace to lead these fellow runners down the path God is calling your group to go. Then, get ready for the run of your lifetime!
I am Out of Shape
I don't know about the rest of you, but just last week, I attempted to climb the 16 flights of steps to my office because the elevators were down and, man, I was winded! I knew it had been a while since I last worked out or run any long distance, but just going up to my 8th floor office on the steps took me about 4 minutes to climb and about 10 minutes to recover it seemed!
Of course, that got me thinking about Run for the Call and that we just haven't been doing much recently. So, I think it's high time we kick this thing in gear! If you missed the early bird deadline for signing up for the Flying Pig or you just want to take part in your natural desire to run help others, join our team and help us to support our seminarians both financially and spiritually in their journey toward the priesthood.
Sign up today and in the coming weeks, be on the look out for more opportunities to support our seminarians through running, training and chasing after your own vocation!
Benefit Concert Recap: What a Night!!
The crowd was small for our first ever Run for the Call Benefit Concert, but that didn't stop the duo of Danny and Japes from getting the night started right, with energy and enthusiasm that drew the kids out to the dance floor from the first beat! And from that point on the fun didn't stop (and neither did the kids)!
All around the Meyer Center people were laughing, and dancing and playing and clapping along to the sounds of Irish music provided by one of the best Irish music duos many had ever heard and it only escalated when Easter Rising joined the stage!
Sometime in the middle of the night, our seminarians showed just how fun our seminarians can be as they put on a display of their own dance moves.
The only thing missing, it seems, was the Feisty. That would have made the entire night complete.
By the end of the night, several families had spiritually adopted seminarians, our list of team members was started, Chris Geiger (our emcee for the night) was the lucky winner of our Spartan Race Giveaway and we raised over $900 for our seminarians!
All in all, it was a fantastic start to our Run for the Call 2014-1015 season and I'm looking forward to many more great moments!
Many thanks to our event sponsors, Freshway Foods and the St. Margaret of York Knights of Columbus Council. Thanks also to St. Susanna for the use of the Meyer Center, to the bands, to Chris Geiger and the rest of the seminarians who were able to make it out and to the many great volunteers and our great planning team for helping to organize and make this event happen. We are looking forward to seeing you all again next year!
If you missed the concert, you can still Spiritually Adopt a seminarian, join the team, or donate to our seminarians. Any kind of contributions you are able to make are GREATLY appreciated!

A Boaz child is recovering from injuries sustained in a traffic accident in Albertville.
Trevor Morrow, 2, was taken to Marshall Medical Center South in Boaz, then transferred to Children's Hospital in Birmingham, after the accident Friday afternoon on U.S. 431 North near George Wallace Drive.
His condition was unavailable Monday.
The boy was riding in a 1998 Dodge Ram driven by Penny Helton of Boaz. Police said her truck struck a 2005 Chevrolet 1500 that slowed to make a turn.
Two passengers in Helton's truck were injured. Dylan Rowan, 8, and Tyler Morrow, 2, were both treated at Marshall Medical Center South and released.
The driver of the Chevrolet, Bobby N. Oliver of Sand Rock, was not injured.
Police said all drivers and passengers were wearing seat belts.

| notlikeshedid chapter 1 . 6/21/2009
I LOVE the idea of Brooke as a doctor. It's like OTH/Grey's Anatomy, and that's just awesome. This was a great first chapter. I hope that you'll keep writing this story and hope you'll update soon.

Wow! Interesting! I would really like to see you continue this!
By the way- does KS stand for Keith Scott? That's what my guess is anyway...
Anyway- this was a really great chapter and I would definitely love to see more! ;-)

KS... equal Keith Scott?
Haha I don't know but i do know that I love this story just about the same as Welcome to Shumann. I honestly am mixed on which one you should continue but I know either one will be sure to have me reading, I really do like both :) They are both intense and sad in their own way, and so original. I love Grey's Anatomy and medicine overall so of course this chapter appealed to that side of me, and the fact that Brooke is my favorite character... it is just a nice package. I love the fact that she is a doctor because it shows the ambition she has in the show, just directed in another way. Ah I am so confused on which I think you should continue.
I really want to see if I am right about KS but I also REALLY want to see B&L in Welcome to Shumann.
I guess whichever you decide will be the best. If there is one that you think you will enjoy writing a little more or are more interested, you should go with that one. It goes to show that if a lot of people are in love with both stories and unsure about which one they would rather read than you are just such a great writer to have created such two amazing stories.
I look forward to seeing which one you continue.

Wo amazing beginning. It's completely different from other fanfic. Can't wait for your update

Hey, I just read this and welcome to Schumann, I know you will continue the one that get more reviews, but I still cannot decide between the two.
Hope has medicine, something that I just like, and you have all expectation on how, where Lucas is going to come in, probably Keith, the dead one, so everything is "new" 'cause is a very different set for the characters and the background of Brooke is also going to be discovered, so those are the things that I like about the story.
Now about welcome... it's a different set too but kind of familiar, although we still need to know who was the boyfriend, just to put a face really, but still, what would happen when they know the story of B Davies and how are you going to bring B and L together. Haley is a little more different than the other regular selves and also Brooke is a little bit.
So those are my reason to like both of the stories, personally I would like to read both, so take this review as one for both, lol, but since you are not writing after the summer (don't know why, but you should continue) I'll read whichever you choose to continue :D
Enjoy the rest of the weekend, take care

I like the start. I wonder who the guy was. one thing, I could be totally wrong but I am 99.9 percent positive that if a person is a john doe they would not be classified as DNR because you have to sign paperwork stating that YOU have elected to be DNR. The doctors don't decide that for you. And because they do not know who he is...it would be impossible for him to be DNR. I know that this is a fanfic, so I'll let it slide. update soon.
