text: Intro. A. Please turn in your Bibles to 1 Samuel chapter 18. B. King Saul is the main character of 1 Sam. 18, and he, in a very graphic way, illustrates the evils of two sins in particular - jealousy and envy. 1. "Jealousy" and "envy" are very similar in meaning. a. They involve the "feelings of displeasure produced by witnessing or hearing of the advantages or prosperity of another." (Webster). b. They also involve "longing after or coveting some advantage or possession of another." (Webster) c. "Envy" is the stronger of the two words because it not only involves ill-feelings toward another, but it expresses itself in action against the one envied. C. Every sin begins with temptation and, if not repented of, ends in death. 1. Let us study "jealousy" and "envy," as exemplified in the life of Saul, that we might avoid them. I. THE SEEDS OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY. 1 Sam. 18:1-9 A. In the first nine verses we see the seeds of jealousy sown in Saul's heart. 1. Comparisons were made between Saul and David of which Saul did not appreciate. 1 Sam. 18:7-9 2. The Bible warns us of the folly of comparing ourselves to others. 2 Cor. 10:12 3. Everyone should prove his own work. Gal. 6:4 B. Also, the seeds of jealousy were sown in Saul's heart by his own insecurity. 1. He was afraid that David would take away the kingdom from him. 1 Sam. 18:8 2. Saul seemed to forget about God's will in the matter. a. His kingship had been a gift to him from God. b. Thus, no one could take the kingdom from him unless God so willed it. c. His responsibility was to strive to stay in the favor of God. 3. All Christians should try to do their best to serve God, and leave all else in the hands of God. II. THE FRUITS OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY. 1 Sam. 18:10-27 A. When jealousy or envy takes root, evil actions flow therefrom. 1. Saul throws his spear at David in an attempt to pin him to the wall. 1 Sam. 18:11 a. As a matter of fact, three times he tries to kill David with a javelin. 1 Sam. 18:10-11; 19:9-10 b. Also, Saul plotted and schemed to have David fall by the Philistines. 1 Sam. 18:25 2. Again, when jealousy or envy takes root in one's heart it causes him to do evil things. a. Jealousy will cause one to squander precious time and resources in evil actions rather than faithfully serving the Lord. B. "Fear" is a fruit of jealousy. 1. Three times in this chapter, the inspired writer says that Saul was afraid of David. 1 Sam. 18:12,15,29 2. Saul's fear was irrational and unjustified. a. David was completely loyal to Saul and would have humbly served him in any way he desired. 3. Sin clouds the mind and darkens the heart. Rom. 1:21- 22,26,28; Gen. 6:5-8; Eph. 4:17-19 III. THE PITS OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY. 1 Sam. 18:28-29 A. Hardships and heartache in one's family is a pit in the fruit of jealousy. 1. Saul sent messengers to kill David, but David was saved by David's wife, Michal. 1 Sam. 19:11-17 a. Remember, Michal was the daughter of Saul. To say the least, she did not appreciate what her father was trying to do. 2. Later, Saul tries to kill his own son Jonathan who was defending David. 1 Sam. 20:30-34 a. Again, Saul's envy was putting a hard strain, to say the least, on family relations. B. "Blindness of heart" is a pit in the fruit of jealousy. 1. Saul had the priests of God killed because he thought they had tried to help David. 1 Sam. 22:13-18 2. For a long time, he had all the armies of Israel in the wilderness hunting David. Chapters 22-26 3. Saul did not stop pursuing David even though David proved to him twice that he was not his enemy. 1 Sam. 24:4-12; 26:8-11 IV. THE END CONSEQUENCES OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY. A. Saul's jealousy and envy became an obsession, and caused him to lose everything of any value. 1. He lost the friendship and loyalty of one who would have been a good son-in-law. a. 1 Sam. 18:29 says that Saul became the continual enemy of David. How sad! b. David would have made a great general (and/or servant) under Saul's kingship. 2. He lost the love and respect of his family. a. He was trying to hurt, for no reason, the one who his son and daughter truly loved. B. The Lord departed from Saul and became his enemy. 1 Sam. 28:16 1. Thus, Saul lost the most important thing any human being can ever have - fellowship with God. John 1:11-13; 1 John 3:1; Rev. 21:7-8 2. In the end, in desperation, Saul asked counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, the witch of Endor. Chapter 28 a. His life ended in suicide on the battle field. 1 Sam. 31:3-6 Concl. A. As we have seen, the root cause of Saul's downfall was his jealousy and envy of David. 1. Instead of controlling jealousy and envy, jealousy and envy took control of him, and destroyed him. 2. They put him in a rapid spiral downward from which he never recovered. B. Let us be aware of these sins, their powers, and what they can do to us. 1. Jealousy and envy will bring harm to ourselves, our families, and, worst of all, will destroy our souls. 2. May God help us to overcome envy and jealousy in our hearts and lives.

East Tennessee Student Interns Organize Community Assessment for Public Health Emergency Response
Yang Chen and Robert Moore, two MPH students at ETSU, as part of their internship with the Northeast Regional Health Office of the Tennessee Department of Health, coordinated an emergency preparedness exercise designed to assess the ability of the health department to rapidly gather information following a disaster. The Community Assessment for Public Health Emergency Response (CASPER) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tool-kit that "can be used by public health practitioners and emergency management officials to determine the health status and basic needs of the affected community in a quick and low-cost manner."
With oversight from David Kirschke, MD, Medical Director of the Northeast Regional Health Office, and from Donna Robbins, DrPH, regional epidemiologist, the two students coordinated the survey in Hawkins County, a largely rural county in the Appalachian region of northeast Tennessee.
Dr. Kirschke, who is also an adjunct professor in the Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, identified five objectives of the exercise:
Other students from the College of Public Health who participated included DrPH students Colleen Scott, Janice Greene, and Christian Williams, and MPH students Sarah Burgoyne, Rachel Dinsmore, David Kioko, and Taylor McKeehan.
According to Dr Kirschke, "We couldn't have done this without the voluntary support of ETSU students and the leadership and skills of our ETSU interns. This exercise builds on a long-standing and close collaboration between the health department and the college of public health."
Dean Randy Wykoff said "I have tremendous respect for the work done by our regional public health officials. I am deeply appreciative of Dr. Kirschke's and Dr. Robbins' continued efforts to provide our students with the real-world experiences necessary to excel in the workplace. Between teaching our Infectious Disease Epidemiology class, mentoring our interns during their field placements, and including our students in real world exercises like CASPER, I think that they represent the very best example of an academic-practice partnership, and are an essential part of our commitment to providing our students hands-on practical experiences."

- How do I enrol?
- Does class registration apply to me?
- How do I find the teaching material for my topic?
- I am an international on-shore student, can I complete external topics?
- Does the student services and amenities fee apply to me?
- I have a US Loan, can I complete external topics?
- How do I get a student ID card?
- I enrolled last year, how do I get a new sticker for my student ID card?
- I need assistance to enrol, who do I contact?
- I can't access Flinders Learning Online, what do I do?
How do I enrol?
External students enrol in just the same way as other students. Follow the steps to plan your study, access the Student Information System and enrol in topics. Your Course Coordinator or Administrative Officer can provide advice on the correct topics for enrolment or answer any questions you may have about your course. Locate their contact details on your 5 steps to Flinders or the Course Advice pages.
If you intend to apply for credit, lodge the application as quickly as possible, preferably at least two weeks before the start of the relevant semester. If you are concerned about the time documents may take to reach Flinders, contact your Credit Transfer Officer for advice (see the Course Advice page for details).
Does class registration apply to me?
Only a few external topics (with a Distance Education or Distance Education (FLC) location) require registration in a class activity, the timetable will indicate if this is necessary. If class registration is required, follow the instructions at Step 3 - Enrol in topics and register for classes.
How do I find the teaching material for my topic?
Flinders Learning Online (FLO) is where you will access the teaching materials for your topic(s). You should have access to the teaching materials one week prior to the start of the teaching period. If you enrol late, once teaching has commenced, it may take two hours from the time you enrol before topics appear in FLO. For some topics, additional teaching materials will be provided in hard-copy. Your Topic Coordinator can advise if this is the case.
I am an international on-shore student, can I complete external topics?
International students studying in Australia on a student visa may complete up to 25% of a course by distance or online learning. However:
- you need to take into account any credit you may have received. Credit reduces the total number of units for the course, and consequently the units able to be completed by distance or online learning.
- you may not enrol exclusively in distance/online learning topics in Semester 1 or Semester 2, you must take face-to-face topics as well.
- you may enrol exclusively in distance/online learning topics in Non-semester 1 or Non-semester 2.
- if you are in your last semester of study, with one topic remaining in order to complete your degree, you may take a non-semester distance/online learning topic.
For more information, contact the ESOS Compliance Officer in Enrolment Services on (08) 8201 3571 (International callers +61 8 8201 3571).
Does the student services and amenities fee apply to me?
As a general principle it is expected that all students will pay this fee irrespective of course or course level. However some exceptions may apply, please refer to student services and amenities for additional details.
I have a US Loan, can I complete external topics?
Students in receipt of Federal Loans may no longer enrol in topics that contain any online component. Enrolment in a topic that contains online delivery as the only method of delivery will result in you being ineligible for Federal Loans for the remainder of your course. Homework and assignment submission is not considered an online component for this purpose.
For more information, contact Student Finance Services on 1300 FLINDERS (+61 8 1300 3546 3377).
How do I get a student ID card?
The student ID card is required to borrow books from the Library, store credits required for photocopying and printing, attend examinations, obtain an academic transcript, obtain student concessions from transport and businesses (including those on campus), access Flinders University buildings and for attendance at student organised functions.
The student ID card is issued at the Central Library to new students after enrolment, and should be carried with you whenever you are on campus. For information on how to request a Student ID card please visit the Library's University ID Cards page.
I enrolled last year, how do I get a new sticker for my student ID card?
If you are an external student and require a new sticker for your student ID card, you can email Enrolment Services and request a sticker is mailed to you. Enrolment Services will use the address recorded on the Student Information System, so ensure your mailing details are up-to-date before you send the request.
I need assistance to enrol, who do I contact?
As an external student, we realise that you may need additional assistance and support while you study. If you need assistance to enrol, have problems with your study plan, or simply don't know who to contact with a query, let Enrolment Services know and we will do our best to help you. Depending on your location and the time difference, you can:
- email Enrolment Services with details of the assistance you need. Make sure you include your student ID number and course details. If there are substantial time differences Enrolment Services will attempt to resolve the matter for you by email correspondence, or will arrange a time to contact you by phone.
- call Enrolment Services on 1300 FLINDERS (+61 1300 3546 3377).
- 'Request Support' via the Ask Flinders website. Log in using your FAN and secure password. Fill in the details of your request on the electronic form, providing as much detail as you can. Again, if there are substantial time differences Enrolment Services will attempt to resolve the matter for you by email correspondence, or will arrange a time to contact you by phone.
With any of these options make sure that you mention that you are an external student requiring additional support.
I can't access Flinders Learning Online, what do I do?
The FLO Student Helpdesk can be contacted by e-mailing flo.student, or by phone on 1800 200 292 (International callers +61 8 8201 5378), or by using an online form. More details can be found at FLO Help for Students.

The Beginnings
For many centuries the area of Moorfields and Finsbury was open grazing land, too poorly drained for market gardens or building, and was a place for drying clothes, archery practice and for Sunday strolls. Shakespeare mentions the area, close to the City, in Henry IV Part One "...as if thou never walk'st further than Finsbury…" (Act III, Scene 1). When the boggy ground was drained during the 16th century the area became the site of a plague hospital (there's a plaque marking the site in Bath Street), and later the tent city of London citizens displaced by the great fire of 1666.
The growth of the city in the 18th century led to the establishment of St Luke's Church on Old Street, a church associated with John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. Wesley who having had received a public rebuke from one vicar over Wesley's open-air preaching and informal prayers early in his ministry, came to be a regular Sunday preacher at St Luke's later in life.
St Barnabas
St Clement's Church, consecrated originally to St Barnabas, was designed to be a "chapel of ease" (an extra place of worship for those in a parish to far from the parish church, or for extra space if the parish church was too small). Certainly the area was becoming a populous place. The orchards that covered the area in the 18th century were, by the 1820s, giving way to smart new developments on the city fringe, including King Square (named after the newly-crowned King George IV). Houses in King Square were large, designed for artisans and clerks at a convenient distance from the City.
The government had set aside a fund of £1 million "for building new churches in populous places", in thanksgiving for victory over the French in the Napoleonic Wars. And St Luke's parish was chosen to be the site of one of these so-called "Waterloo" churches. However, in those days, both church and local government were run by the churchwardens and local "Vestry", who didn't have to be church people, merely residents of the parish. The vestry of St Luke's, Old Street thus resisted the proposal believing that the new church would "impose on the inhabitants a needless and oppressive expense", and that "no additional chapels are necessary". Despite their protest the Church Building Commission went ahead and purchased the land in King Square.
Despite this opposition, the 27th January 1822 the foundation stone was laid, an event ignored by the Vestry of St Luke's. Work on the building is said to have been done by French ex-prisoners-of-war and locals. The new church building was considered to be "for use and duration, rather than particular ornament". Designed by Philip Hardwick, the architect of Euston Station, St Barnabas was built in the ancient Greek (Ionic) style, but with a spire attached. The windows on either side of the porch were originally glazed, but not the oblong recesses above them, as the illustration, from 1828, shows. There was no vestibule - the main doors led directly into the church, and the door on either side of the porch led into galleries which went around three sides of the building. Altogether it could hold 1,600 people!
It was very plain inside. There was a small temporary organ in the west gallery, and the altar was in a small semi-octagonal recess at the east end. Gas lighting was fitted in 1827, but on condition that no service started later than 3 pm.
St Barnabas was complete by July 1824, but had to wait two years for consecration by the Bishop. This delay was because St Luke's was reluctant to recognise it as a parish chapel, or pay for it to be furnished and decorated. In November 1824 they set up a committee to make sure that ratepayers paid no more than the absolute minimum toward the new church. Eventually, however, £660 was contributed for bibles, prayer-books, altar, communion-plate and furniture, rejecting an offer by the first priest of the new church to pay for many of these himself. They also paid £585 for the wall around the churchyard, and for decorating and mending windows already broken by vandals.
The consecration finally took place on the day after St Barnabas Day, 12th June 1826. The building had cost around £17,000!
The Victorian Church
The Victorian era saw profound social changes in the area, the better off moving further out of town (to new suburbs such as Finsbury Park), to be replaced by the poor. The houses in the square were divided up, as they remained until their demolition at the start of the 1960s. In 1842 the church became a parish in its own right, with its own vicar.
As the population of the area soared in the mid-nineteenth century other churches were built in the area, including St Paul's, Pear Tree Street (1865) and St Matthew's (designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott with an enormous spire) on City Road (1849). The last was St Clement's Church, Lever Street, designed by William Butterfield on a cramped site between Lever Street and Nelson Street. It was consecrated by Bishop W Walsham How on 6th October 1880, to serve some of the most difficult and needy streets of the district.
The best-known of St Clement's vicars was Father Gofton-Salmond (who later went to found the Community of the Servants of the Will of God at Crawley Down, Sussex) in the 1930s. Sadly both St Clement's, Lever Street and St Matthew's, City Road were destroyed by enemy bombs in during the London Blitz. A rare relic from this time is a Service Register from St Clement's, Lever Street, damaged but legible. Under the record for 7th September 1940 is written "Church destroyed 1.25am 8th September 1940 Register dug out of the rubble some weeks later."
A New Beginning
St Barnabas had also been slightly damaged by war time bombs, but was in any case effectively redundant. It had, in fact, been used as a store for ecclesiastical furniture from other buildings since the beginning of the conflict.
After the end of the war, the question was how to reorganise the church in this part of Finsbury, in view of the bombing and a much smaller local population. It was decided to unite the three parishes of St Clement, St Barnabas and St Matthew, and for St Clement's (who were meeting in their temporary church hall) to come to St Barnabas.

Week Five: Coalition Building
When a person is a leader of a community he or she must remember that there are other groups or people that want to solve their own problems. Attempting to solve the problems in the Latino communities by establishing cultural and English learning programs at schools would definitely help the Hispanic communities, but it can alienate the other communities. For instance, if many different programs that are aimed at increasing Latino English speaking skills were enacted at schools, other people might become angry because their tax dollars are contributing towards something that they feel doesn't benefit them. Thus, our task at the Tri-caucus Youth Summit this past Friday was to build coalitions among several groups in a similar situation in a fictional town. In my opinion, I believe that enacting several non-profit programs that help naturalize eligible immigrants (the Latino and Asian communities) and programs that help register people to vote (from Latino, Asian, and Black communities) would greatly benefit everybody. In addition, having a candidate that represent all minorities, and not just one specific type of minority, would be a great way to bring everyone together. Having candidates that just worry about their own community maintains a division between other groups.

Aston Kaanapali Shores Hotel Review: Located about an hour's drive from Kahului Airport and just five minutes from the smaller Kapalua West Maui Airport, this large, oceanfront condominium resort is the perfect spot for those planning extended stays or who require larger units for family gatherings.

- Put the sugar in a pan with 400ml water and warm over a low heat until dissolved. Increase the heat and boil for 1 min. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Pour the tonic water into a bowl, add the sugar syrup, then chill in the fridge until cold.
- Once the tonic mix is cold, add the gin, lime and lemon zests and juice, and pour into a container, then freeze until just frozen – this will take about 2 hrs.
- Remove the just-frozen sorbet from the freezer and break up with a fork. Froth the egg white with a fork, then add both to a food processor and pulse to blitz together – do it quickly so it doesn't actually start to melt. Pour the mix back into your container and freeze until solid. Freeze extra slices of lemons and limes on a tray until solid. Serve the sorbet scooped into glasses or small bowls topped with lemon and lime slices

Comments, questions and tips
This is amazing! So delicious. I'm a massive G&T fan anyway, but I think non G&T drinkers would also like it.
The texture is great. I whisked the egg white until stiff and folded it in as per other sorbet recipes. I thought just frothing it with a fork seemed strange, but maybe it works.
Definitely takes a lot longer to make than I thought from reading the recipe. Took a long time to cool the sugar syrup and tonic mix in the fridge - should have done this the night before maybe. Then it took a LOT longer than 2 hours until it was starting to freeze, but overall brilliant and I will be making this regularly!
I reduced the 400g of Caster Sugar down to 300g as I felt it would be too sweet as per Serenity's comment above.
My other tip would be to use Oliver Twist Gin ... the smooth non harsh taste make it perfect for this dish. You can buy this specialist brand here: http://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/P-18827.aspx
If you decide not to use OTG then you may wish to increase the sugar by another 25/50g.
Please message me and let me know how you got on.

Our 12 Days of Christmas {Literature} unit is in full swing. I knew the kids would enjoy it, but I had no idea just how much they would. Each day the leader draws a name and that child gets to select a present to open. Each book has a quality children's Christmas book and all of the materials needed for an activity. The first day we read Santa's Stuck which the students thought was hilarious. We made books about the yummy treats we would leave for Santa, and we completed a Problem/Solution graphic organizer.
The second day we read Fancy Nancy's Splendiferous Christmas and made Fancy Christmas trees with ornaments containing fancy words and their meaning. The unit is on sale at TPT for $5 (reg. $8.50) through the rest of December, so you can always stock up on it for next year or do some of the activities this year!
Then, today, we opened up The Legend of the Poinsettia which was perfect because we began our "Christmas Around the World" unit today with Christina Bainbridge's amazing resources. So, today we traveled to Mexico. I lined up the chairs like airplane seats (keep in mind I only have 6 kiddos—private school and enrollment is down). We wore Delta Airlines wings and ate real Delta snacks from the plane. I put Christina's Mexico power point on the board and we enjoyed it so much. Then, I read the book and the kids made their own poinsettias. I cut around them so they could be placed on our Christmas tree. I decided (again, spur of the moment) that we would make a different ornament each day related to the country we've traveled to. So I need to decide on an ornament for tomorrow's trip to Brazil. Christina has lots of free resources for this unit available on her website, and you can buy her Flippy Books and Power Points for each country at TPT! Go to her blog to find out how {HERE}.
I also decided to take a picture of the kids each day "in" the country we visited. So, we wore sombreros and posed in front of a Nativity with a poinsettia nearby. These will go in their scrapbooks. More on our travels tomorrow…
You can purchse my 12 Days of Christmas {Literature} unit to get the activities mentioned above plus much more!! There are activities for 15 different books included in the unit!

This is one of those recipes that I could make in my sleep I've made it so much. It's one of my favorites because you get a lot of flavor and great texture with very little effort. The downside is you need quite a few seasonings BUT if you love this recipe as much as I do, you'll use up all those seasonings in no time.
I found this recipe on the Mayo Clinic site but I edited it for cooking indoors because, well, it was winter and there was a foot of snow on my grill. The only thing you'll need are a few seasonings, a big oven-safe saute pan, a good set of tongs and a good side dish. I like to wipe the pan out and make skillet potatoes while I'm letting the pork rest, which also cuts down on clean up!
Try it, I know you'll love it.

I see the spindrift funneling down the route from above, all I can do is cinch my hood up and wait. Whooooossssshhhhhh! Everything goes white; I can't even see my hands holding onto my ice tools. I'm right in the middle of the second pitch of the notorious and ultra classic Ames Ice Hose in Telluride. I look down at the belay and see my partner Bryce, huddled at the belay counting the minutes until I finish the pitch so he can stop freezing his butt off in a never ending spindrift shower. The snow doesn't sting as bad when you're moving.
Ames Ice Hose - Andrew Plagens
I first saw the Ames Ice Hose in a video of the amazing Guy Lacelle soloing it in a matter of minutes. It was the most beautiful and perfect line of ice I could imagine and better yet, it was only a short hour and a half drive away. I was at work thinking about what I wanted to climb that weekend when Bryce came in. I asked him immediately if he would be interested in trying to get on Ames that weekend. He didn't even hesitate in saying yes, he was in for sure. Soon we were a team of three, my good friend and climbing partner Max was also very psyched to join. We would leave for Telluride on Friday night.
Max lead through the first pitch which was in fat and super steep. His lead was a proud effort. After that pitch Max came back down and told us he was done for the day. Bryce and I looked at each other and decided to go for it. We climbed through the first pitch which was much harder than it looked from the ground. At the top of the first belay Bryce handed me the rack and I continued up through the second pitch. The second pitch was narrow, steep and pretty exposed. It was definitely not a place to make mistakes. I ran the pitch as far as I could to the base of the third and final pitch, the hero pitch of fat and wide WI4. I got right to the base of it in a snow field. I didn't have much of a rack left save one stubby. The fixed anchors were buried in snow and there was no way I could get to them. Hmmm, time to improvise. I sunk the bomber stubby in some good ice, and then I sunk both of my tools to the hilt and equalized the whole rig then called off belay. Bomber.
I brought Bryce up, put on my belay parka which was reduced to the usefulness of a wet garbage bag at this point. I settled in to belay the final pitch and take a spindrift shower. Bryce racked up and set off almost immediately. He climbed in perfect form up the most logical line in the sea of ice that was the third pitch. I couldn't wait to follow. Once on top of the massive pitch Bryce called off belay and I got ready to follow. The pitch climbed as well as it looked. I was truly adrift in a deep blue ocean of vertical frozen water.
Once on top we tied the ropes together and rapped as far as we could. At the bottom of the third pitch we built a bomber v-thread and rapped to the group. 70 meter ropes can offer pleasant surprises every once in a while. Max was glad to see our ropes hit the ground, he knew he wouldn't have to stand around in the cold and wait any longer.
The sun was beginning to set when we hiked out and it had snowed another 3 inches over the course of the day. We put chains on our trusty Honda and thanks to Bryce's driving skills we were soon on dry highway headed home. Once in Montrose we stopped at the Horsefly Brewery for some celebration burgers and pints and then drove off into the night for Gunnison.

Das Rheingold at London's Royal Opera House
25 September 2012, London, UK
Show-stopping cameo: Maria Radner as the doom-mongering Erda
Fasolt's murder, more comical than horrific(Photography by Clive Barda)
Review by James Waygood
For all the naked Rhinedaughters and skinless abominations that he has thrown at Das Rheingold, Keith Warner's acclaimed production still fails to lift this opera beyond being the weakest and most unimpressive of Wagner's Ring cycle. Yet with as strong a cast as the Royal Opera House has put behind it there are still moments that thrill, making this a reasonable evening, if not wholly satisfying.
Though the set, lighting, and video/projection work are visually arresting, one of the issues with the production is Warner's overly cluttered approach. Dormant singers will often fidget and pace in the background, distracting from an opera that is already struggling to hold your attention. Testament to this is just how well the more static moments work, such as Wotan's goading of the defeated Alberich, and Erda's doom-mongering prophecy. These are so expertly delivered by the cast that they render the ambitious staging redundant.
What really doesn't chime are the production's attempts at overt horror. Alberich's transformation into a fearsome dragon, despite grotesque and gothic, was executed with laughable and clunky puppetry, and Fasolt's murder was like a badly cooked steak – overdone and with nowhere near enough blood to achieve the shock factor that the production was aiming for.
Yet Antonio Pappano conducts with a measured lightness, making the orchestra noticed only when needed and leaving the cast to make the most of their parts. Indeed, they are the production's saviours. Stig Andersen's Loge is delightfully cynical, sly, and sarcastic, and Maria Radner purrs and spits her aria as Erda to spine-tingling effect in a near show-stopping cameo. As for Bryn Terfel, it's only when Wotan casts off the shackles of being the demagogue's sidekick that he turns to dominating the stage with an unstoppable power, stunningly nuanced in his exploration of Wotan's complex pathos.
Ultimately it's an overburdened production of a fair opera with only its singers stopping it from being dreary. Given the performances here it sets the scene for what should be a much more enjoyable continuation of the cycle. Undoubtedly Terfel will yet again make his mark in one of opera's most coveted baritone roles, accompanied by a supporting cast that are just as adept as the superstar himself.
A full review of Covent Garden's Ring cycle will be published in our December issue.
Egyptian soprano wins Leyla Gencer Voice Competition
24 September 2012, Istanbul, Turkey
Fatma Said with the Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra under Pietro Mianiti
Report by Neil Jones
The 7th Leyla Gencer Voice Competition has been won after an inspired performance of 'Je marche sur tous el chemins ... Obéissions, quand leur voix appelle' from Manon by the 21-year-old Egyptian soprano, Fatma Said.
Said is currently a student at the Hanns Eisler School of Music in Berlin and her polished technique, spirited interpretation and simply gorgeous voice not only won her first prize but also the Doğuş Audience Prize.
Ludmilla Bauerfeldt (soprano, Brazil) came second and Jessica Rose Cambio (soprano, Italy-USA) came third, whilst the Accademia del Teatro alla Scala Special Prize of a three-month scholarship at the Academia was won by Irina Ioana Baiant (soprano, Romania).
The finals and award ceremony took place at the Hagia Eirene Museum in Istanbul, Turkey, on Thursday, 20 September and the nine finalists were accompanied by the Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Pietro Mianiti.
The Italian soprano, Mirella Freni, was head of the panel of judges which included the chief director of the Istanbul State Opera and Ballet, Yekta Kara.
Over 170 singers auditioned for the Competition, with 40 being selected to compete in the quarter and semi-finals in Istanbul.
'Bawdy' Arnold opera to receive belated world premiere
30 August 2012, Northampton, UK
Malcolm Arnold in 1958
A comic opera by the British composer Sir Malcolm Arnold is to receive its world premiere in his hometown of Northampton during this year's Malcolm Arnold Festival.
A satire on 17th-century manners inspired by William Wycherley's Restoration play The Dancing Master, Arnold's libretto started life as a film script by his friend Joe Mendoza. They went on to create the 75-minute score together in 1951, shortly after the success of Arnold's orchestral suite English Dances.
'When the pair took the work to the BBC, it was turned down as being too bawdy for family audiences,' explains Malcolm Arnold Festival director, Paul Harris. 'They then took it to Granada where Malcolm performed it on the piano as well as singing all the parts. Granada turned it down for not being serious enough.'
The semi-staged world premiere of The Dancing Master will take place in Northampton on 20 October, including an introductory talk by Royal Academy of Music lecturer, Dr Timothy Bowers.
Royal Opera's contemporary arm to close
20 August 2012, London, UK
London's Royal Opera House
London's Royal Opera House has announced that it is closing its contemporary and commissioning arm, ROH2, which has developed new programming strands for the ROH's black-box Linbury Theatre, the Clore Studio and the Paul Hamlyn Hall.
The decision has been precipitated by the departure of Deborah Bull, ROH2's creative director and Alison Duthie, its head of programming, both of whom are now working with King's Cultural Partners at King's College, London. The move has also resulted in two redundancies from ROH2's eight-strong team, including head of development, John Lloyd-Davies.
ROH2 has struggled to find an artistic identity of its own since it was established in 2001. Although it has developed small-scale, experimental work through partnerships with organisations such as the Genesis Foundation, it has tended to act as a receiving house for the UK's leading contemporary opera touring companies such as Music Theatre Wales and the Opera Group.
With the appointment of a new, artistically experienced management team at the Royal Opera and Ballet, it was felt that ROH2's remit should be integrated into programming and development at the Royal Opera House itself.
The ROH's new director of opera, Kasper Holten (formerly boss of the Royal Danish Opera), will lead the team responsible for commissioning and developing opera and music in the alternative spaces, working with John Fulljames (former director of the Opera Group). Ballet and dance will be overseen by the new director of ballet, Kevin O'Hare.
In spite of a 15 per cent cut in its annual grant, the ROH has insisted that the decision to axe ROH2 is not financially motivated. The company issued a statement saying, 'The reorganisation does not effect Royal Opera House's commitment to commissioning innovative and challenging new work and collaborating with other creative organisations.'
Festival Focus – Opera Saratoga, US
6 August 2012, Saratoga Springs, US
Alexander Orthwein steps up to bat as The Mighty Casey

Report by Karyl Charna Lynn
Opera Saratoga has been known as Lake George Opera for the past half a century, but recently changed its name to reflect the company's relocation to Saratoga Springs, where it has been based since 1998. Alongside this rebranding, the company acquired a new staff, board, and a third opera in its schedule, having been forced by financial constraints to cut its offering to two over the past few seasons. Curtis Tucker, once again at the helm, metamorphosed the company into a 10-day festival format, with overarching themes, obscure works and director-driven-concept productions.
This season's theme was versatility. Tucker wanted to show the company's three performance categories:19th century masterpieces, with Rigoletto; comic works, with a double bill of Offenbach's obscure Le 66 and the one act satire on Britain's legal system by Gilbert & Sullivan, Trial by Jury; and rarely performed contemporary American classics, with Schuman's 1953 opera The Mighty Casey, which deals with America's favorite pastime – baseball.
Mighty Casey was also the festival's highlight. Based on Lawrence Thayer's 1888-poem 'Casey at the Bat', it is a portrait of small-town America (Mudville) in 1917: an entertaining work with a serious undertone dealing with the downfall of Mudville's hero Casey, who when his moment of greatness fades (he loses the championship game by striking out) finds redemption through love. The opera was musically stimulating and visually exciting. Only director Helene Binder's insertion of a mini-vaudeville show (1917 was the heyday of vaudeville) at the start of Act II almost ruined the work by interrupting the action, breaking the story's thread and detracting from Schuman's glorious music. Set against a backdrop of the team's hometown Main Street and its ball park, complete with dugout and stands, the opera was narrated by The Watchman (Mark Womack in a matter-of-fact manner), which included Thayer's entire poem, of which the last stanzas were set to a funereal chromatic chorale, sung by the spectators/townspeople at the game.
The music, slightly dissonant, sounded like a fusion of Copland and Bernstein. It was rhythmical with heavy brass and percussion, and reflected the mood and emotions of the story, by turns lively and melodic, peaceful and neo-romantic, and mournful. The orchestra played a major role in driving the work, because there were long stretches with no singing or spoken dialogue. The music, building in parallel triads, ended where it began, so there were no climatic moments à la Verdi, but it was engrossing nevertheless. A range of character motifs clearly delineated the different characters, but caused the dialogue to suffer through the frequent repetition of phrases, harking back to Baroque era traditions.
Ironically, Alexander Orthwein in the title role (Casey) neither sang nor spoke, but did a great pantomime of Mudville's last hope for a championship. The singing cast, a mixture of apprentice and studio artists, assayed their roles with aplomb. Tucker admirably conducted from the 'skypit' (it is always on top of the set since the theatre has no orchestra pit) capturing the nuances and details of the music.
Director Chuck Hudson's updated Rigoletto to contemporary Italy, although it could stand for any country where male politicians amuse themselves by paying for sex then denigrating and abusing the women. The Duke of Mantua, transformed into an egocentric, womanizing politician, was modelled after Italy's former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, whose alleged sexual orgies were legendary. The Duke's court was metamorphosed into a bordello with explicit sexual acts and excessive violence against scantily-attired women. Although it took an act for Joshua Kohl to warm up, it was worth the wait. His voice, deliciously lyrical and emotionally nuanced, offered a beautiful timbre, if occasionally forced. Guido Lebron assayed Rigoletto with a powerful, booming voice that was blunt, a reflection of his character. Marie-Eva Munger was a standout, imbuing Gilda with a golden-hued sound, beautifully melodic, and finely nuanced with a touch of vibrato and thrilling high notes. Maestro Jim Caraher kept the performance tight.
The double bill of Le 66 (Number 66) and Trial by Jury were fluff pieces – light, silly and fun. Le 66 involved a young couple's journey through the Alps, where they met a salesman, and explored the humorous consequences of holding a lottery ticket upside down. ('Le 66' refers to the number of the winning lottery ticket.)
The overarching theme for next year's Opera Saratoga festival season will be operas inspired by Shakespeare.

China Stocks Rise for 2nd Day on Infrastructure Spending Report
May 22 (Bloomberg) -- China's stocks rose for a second day on speculation the government will accelerate infrastructure spending to counter an economic slowdown and after German and French officials said they will work to keep Greece in the euro.
Anhui Conch Cement Co., the biggest Chinese cement producer, gained the most in a month after the China Securities Journal reported the government plans to speed up approval of infrastructure construction projects. China Vanke Co. and Poly Real Estate Group Co. advanced at least 3.9 percent as Macquarie Securities Ltd. said China may loosen property restrictions by the end of the year and the 21st Century Business Herald said China is unlikely to expand property tax trials nationwide.
"Investors are comforted by developments in Europe and expectations of more spending and policy easing," said Chen Liqiu, a strategist at Jianghai Securities Co. in Shanghai.
The Shanghai Composite Index, which tracks the bigger of China's stock exchanges, rose 1.1 percent to 2,373.31 at the close, adding to a 0.2 percent gain yesterday after Premier Wen Jiabao said the government will focus more on bolstering economic growth. The CSI 300 Index advanced 1.6 percent to 2,627.53. The Bloomberg China-US Equity Index of the most-traded Chinese companies in the U.S. jumped 2.8 percent at the close in New York.
The Shanghai index has climbed 7.9 percent this year on expectations the government will relax monetary policy to support growth and take more measures to bolster equities. The measure fell a combined 33 percent in 2010 and 2011 as the government increased interest rates to tame inflation.
Leading Indicator
Premier Wen said more efforts should be made to maintain relatively fast economic expansion. While current economic operations are generally stable and growth is still within the expected range, the domestic and external environments are becoming more complex, Wen said, according to a report from the the official Xinhua News Agency on May 20.
A leading index for China rose at the same pace in April as the prior month, offering investors some comfort that the world's second-biggest economy may avoid a deeper slowdown.
The gauge increased 0.8 percent from March to 232.4, the New York-based Conference Board said in an e-mailed statement today, citing a preliminary reading. That compares with a 0.8 percent gain in March and 1 percent in February.
Stocks in the Shanghai gauge are valued at 10.2 times estimated earnings, compared with a record low of 8.9 times on Jan. 6, according to weekly data compiled by Bloomberg. About 7.5 billion shares changed hands yesterday, 5.5 percent lower than the daily average this year. Thirty-day volatility in the gauge was at 15.09 today.
'Everything Necessary'
Anhui Conch climbed 3.4 percent to 16.67 yuan, the biggest gain since April 5. Sany Heavy Industry Co., the biggest maker of excavators, jumped 5.3 percent to 14.43 yuan.
This year's infrastructure investment plans must be submitted before the end of June, the China Securities Journal reported, citing an unidentified person. The government may allocate construction funds earlier than planned, it said.
China Vanke, the nation's biggest developer, gained 3.9 percent to 9.01 yuan while Poly Real Estate, the second largest, climbed 5.4 percent to 13.41 yuan. The gauge of property stocks in the Shanghai Composite advanced 2.9 percent, the most among five industry groups.
China is unlikely to expand a property tax trial to more cities in the near term and the government will continue home purchase restrictions, the 21st Century Business Herald reported today, citing Chen Guoqiang, vice chairman of the China Real Estate Society. Shanghai and Chongqing are the only two cities to have started property tax trials.
Property Outlook
China will loosen property policies by the end of the year, Jiong Shao, head of China strategy at Macquarie in Hong Kong, said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. Macquarie is "increasingly positive" on the Chinese property industry, he said.
China Shenhua Energy Co., the biggest coal producer, gained 1 percent to 26.26 yuan. China International Capital Corp. said the coal industry may rally as early as the third quarter as the economy stabilizes.
Developments in France and Greece are having a direct impact on emerging-market stocks, including China, as Europe is the biggest buyer of exports from these economies, Michael Gayed, chief investment strategist in New York at Pension Partners LLC, which advises on over $150 million in assets, said yesterday by phone.
Germany and France agree that they will do "everything necessary" to ensure Greece remains in Europe's currency union, Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said yesterday in Berlin after a meeting with France's Pierre Moscovici.
Rebound Won't Last
Europe is China's biggest export market, making up about 18 percent of the nation's overseas shipments, according to Shenyin & Wanguo Securities Co.
"This rebound is likely to be short-lived," said Chen at Jianghai Securities. "The fundamental issues in Europe remain, easing in China is not going to accelerate and Chinese company earnings will still be bad this quarter so this is not a good time to enter the market."
Morgan Stanley yesterday lowered its forecast for China's growth this year to 8.5 percent from 9 percent, while the government aims for a 7.5 percent expansion this year. Economists led by Helen Qiao said in a report to clients they expect two interest-rate cuts this year, "zero" appreciation by the yuan against the dollar and expanded capital spending by the government and state-owned companies.
Chinese stocks trading in New York rose the most in four months, led by Tudou Holdings Ltd. Tudou's American depositary receipts jumped 12 percent to $33.44, the biggest advance since March 12. Its acquisition by larger rival Youku is expected to close in the third quarter, Shanghai-based Tudou said in a statement yesterday.
The iShares FTSE China 25 Index Fund, the biggest Chinese exchange-traded fund in the U.S., advanced for the first time since May 1, gaining 2.6 percent to $33.86, the biggest rally in five weeks.

PORTLAND, Maine (NECN) - Ryan Begin is an Iraq war veteran with an arm injury that causes extreme pain. Maine law now allows him, with a doctor's recommendation, to use medical marijuana to ease that pain.
It's a new treatment for him, and presents new challenges to employers in Maine who are trying to navigate the law. Charles Einseidler, a labor and employment attorney, says workers are starting to pull out their medical marijuana cards and employers aren't sure how to respond.
At the Rufus Deering Lumber Company in Portland, they do random drug testing for their employees that operate heavy equipment. So far the issue of medical marijuana hasn't come up and isn't on their radar, acknowledge, probably should be."
One employer is now dealing with the issue in court. The Maine Civil Liberties Union has filed a lawsuit on behalf of a Maine woman who claims she wasn't hired by a temp agency because she failed the applicant drug test. She uses medical marijuana for back pain.
The MCLU says the medical marijuana law makes it illegal for Maine employers to discriminate against people who are medical marijuana users and are complying with the law. But just because you have the card, doesn't mean you can smoke pot at work.
Public attitudes are changing, laws are changing, now employers have to figure out how to change with them.

Part of Disney's plan to get fans excited for Star Wars: Episode VII has been a charity called Force For Change and a contest to win a walk-on part in the movie. There are just days left to go, so director/co-writer J.J. Abrams appeared in a new video.
Force For Change, which was created with UNICEF, began in May, launching with a video that confirmed filming was taking place in Abu Dhabi.
Now, Monday's video is showing off a new vehicle that looks like a cross between an X-Wing and a Z-95 Headhunter. It's a little different from the familiar X-Wing and doesn't feature an astromech droid behind the cockpit.
In the video, Abrams explains the charity and the two biggest prizes - a chance to be in the movie and host an early screening of the film in your hometown.
Episode VII is still slated to open on Dec. 18, 2015, even though production was recently delayed due to Harrison Ford's injury. New members of the cast include Lupita Nyong'o, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac and John Boyega. The most recent casting addition was Christina Chong, who may have already filmed her scenes.
You can enter the contest and make a donation at Omaze.com.

A modern dictionary of Catholic terms, both common and obscure. Find accurate definitions of words and phrases.
The complete abandonment of the Christian religion and not merely a denial of some article of the creed. Since apostolic times, it was classified among the major crimes, along with murder and adultery, whose remission in the sacrament of penance carried severe censures and, among certain rigorists, even remission of the sin was denied. St. Cyprian (d. 258), Bishop of Carthage, defended the Church's right to remit apostasy before the hour of death, and the practice was supported by Pope Cornelius (d. 253). Under the Christian Roman Empire, apostates were punished by deprivation of civil rights, including the power to bequeath or inherit property. During the late Middle Ages, Christian who apostatized were subject to trial and punishment by the Inquisition.
The code of canon law of 1918 declared that apostates from the faith (as also heretics and schismatics) incur ipso facto excommunication, are deprived, after warning, of any benefice, dignity, pension, office, or any position they may have in the Church, and are declared under infamy. After a second warning, clerics are to be deposed, and members of a religious community automatically dismissed.

Momaday was born on February 27, 1934, in Lawton, Oklahoma, to Alfred and Natachee Scott Momaday. His father, a full-blooded Kiowa, and his mother, who was of French and Cherokee descent, were both painters and teachers who instilled a strong sense of self in their son. At the age of six months, a Kiowa storyteller and tribal elder bestowed on Momaday the Kiowa name Tsoaitalee ("Rock-Tree Boy"). The name referenced a place along the Kiowa migration route known as Devil's Tower, and it forever linked Momaday to his ancestral past.
In 1936, Momaday and his family left Kiowa Country and moved to New Mexico, where they lived on the Navajo Reservation for seven years. In 1946, the family moved to the Jemez Pueblo in New Mexico after Momaday's parents accepted teaching positions at the local day school.
Growing up on the Navajo and Jemez Reservations left a lasting impression on Momaday and gave him a pan-Indian experience that has strongly influenced his writing. Living at Jemez in the mid-1940s, Momaday witnessed the changes that occurred after World War II ended. The Jemez population increased, modern conveniences became more commonplace, and returning veterans brought their off-reservation experiences home with them. Although some veterans adjusted to pueblo life, many others found the task difficult. Some left the reservation in a quest to find themselves and employment, while others remained but turned to alcohol or suicide to escape. Momaday never fell victim to the identity crises that so many Native Americans suffered after the war. He did absorb the experiences of his Navajo and Jemez neighbors, however, and he returned to those themes in his writing.
In 1958, Momaday received a BA in political science from the University of New Mexico. Unsure of his future, he accepted a teaching position on the Jicarilla Apache Reservation in New Mexico. While there, Momaday spent his free time writing, and in 1959 Stanford University awarded him the Wallace Stegner Creative Writing Scholarship for poetry. The scholarship gave Momaday an opportunity to work under respected poet Yvor Winters, who became a lifelong friend and mentor. Although he expected to return to the reservation teaching position after a year, Momaday's experiences at Stanford reshaped his career path.
In 1960, Momaday received his MA from Stanford and immediately began work on his Ph.D., which he completed in 1963. The following year, he accepted a teaching position at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
Momaday's literary breakthrough came in 1968 with the publication of House Made of Dawn, a classic novel about the search for identity. The novel's main character, a Jemez man named Abel, leaves his reservation to serve in Europe during World War II. When he returns to the reservation after the war, however, Abel suffers an identity crisis. Like many returning veterans, Abel is caught between two worlds. He embarks on a journey during which a Navajo and a Kiowa help him recognize the importance of Indian culture and tradition. Only after he reconnects with his tribal heritage does Abel overcome the identity crisis that plagued him.
Since the publication of House Made of Dawn, Momaday has written numerous literary works that stress the importance of tradition and address the problems of Indians in modern society. Among them are The Way to Rainy Mountain (1969), which weaves Kiowa myths with tribal history and personal memories; The Names (1976), a memoir of childhood; The Gourd Dancer (1976), a collection of poems; and The Ancient Child (1989), a novel that connects Kiowa myth with Western legend. He has also held professorships at universities in the United States and Europe and continues to utilize his artistic talents.

Council to hold hearing on complaints vs bizman-A A +A
Wednesday, April 9, 2014
TWO City Council will hold a hearing on Thursday on the complaint filed by councilmen against Metro Safari Resort owner Francis Rey Cabuga for constructing a swimming pool and two-storey building without permits in Barangay Punta Taytay, Bacolod City.
The complainants, councilman Glen Mark Pacheo and former councilwoman Angela Daguno, said the construction started without the required building permit and environmental compliance certificate (ECC), and violated the condition for right-of-way provision.
Cabuga had written former Alangilan village chief Degie Tanista in June 11, 2013 informing that he plans to put up a resort with a zoo, clubhouse, swimming pool, camping site, playground, rentable cottages and picnic huts as he wants to contribute to the tourism industry of Bacolod.
Councilor Caesar Distrito, chairman of the City Council Committee on Laws, Ordinances and Good Government and Committee on Environment and Ecology, said the hearing will determine the veracity and legality of the issue.
The issue will be heard by the committees on laws, ordinances and good government, environment and ecology, and will be attended by concerned agencies.
