Whatever Happened to the Brethren?
A survey of local churches in 1998-1999
by Graham Brown, with an introduction by Neil Summerton
Partnership / Paternoster Press 2003
This new book describes the results of a major survey of churches of 'Open Brethren' background in the United Kingdom.
The Open Brethren began in the 19th century with a group of British Evangelical Christians who wanted to return to the purity of the New Testament Church. Their desire was to base church practice on the Bible, rather than on the traditions of a particular denomination. Key early Brethren leaders included J N Darby, A. N. Groves, and George Muller. Some of the distinctives of the Brethren are:
- The autonomy of the local congregation
- Leadership by a body of lay elders; opposition to the idea of a paid professional ministry
- The Lord's Supper - a Communion service which is open for any (male) member in good standing to teach, give a Bible reading, pray, announce a hymn etc.
- The baptism of believers (i.e. not infants), by immersion
- Usually (but not always) a very conservative interpretation of the Bible's teaching about the role of women; in particular, no place for women in leadership or public teaching.
The Brethren have been a major force in world missions (out of all proportion to their size), and are now a worldwide movement. Although the Brethren would insist that they are 'not a denomination', there are some key organizations and networks that link Brethren churches. These would include 'Echoes of Service' and - more recently - Partnership.
Almost half (46%) of the churches in the survey are small (40 or fewer members), and only 4% of the churches have over 200 members. However, the larger churches still account for 20% of the total number of people, while the smaller churches only account for 18% - so there are actually more people in larger churches than in smaller churches.
Overall decline
The survey paints a bleak picture of overall decline in Open Brethren numbers (parallel, of course, to the decline in most streams of church life in the United KIngdom over the same period):
The Open Brethren were probably at their peak in the 1950s and 1960s. From 1959 to 1990, the number of congregations fell by about a fifth. The rate of this decline has been increasing: there was a further decrease of one sixth to one fifth between 1990 and 1998. The survey says:
The number of churches with Brethren roots has been in decline over the past years with the decline in the past decade continuing apace. (Page 13)
The number of attenders has fallen less sharply than the number of congregations, because the individual churches that remain have grown. But their growth has not been fast enough to offset the fall in the number of churches, so over-all there has still been a decline:
In 1998-9, the great body of the churches surveyed were four or so members/regular attenders smaller than they were ten years before, on a median size of less than fifty. That is, most churches were 10% smaller in size than they were ten years earlier. Numerically, the Nineties were not a good decade for these churches.
The surveys have been taken during a deeply sensitive period in the evolution of this group of churches. It has been a period of rapid decline, haemorrhaging of leadership and others to other church groupings, soul-searching, crisis of identity, and pressure from the emergence of new church groupings with, in many respects, a similar ethos. The self-sufficient confidence and sense of divine appointment which this group of churches possessed up to the mid-1960s quickly collapsed in the face of these pressures.
Average churches
This survey found that in 1998-9, the average Brethren church in the United Kingdom:
- has 58 members / attenders
- is growing by 2% a year
- has had five conversions and four baptisms in the past two years
- still centers its worship around the Breaking of Bread service
- allows women to take some part in services
- Focuses evangelism on family services and youth activities
Changing pictureBut the picture is changing:
- larger churches are growing (fourteen of the churches surveyed had more than two hundred members / attenders)
- growth has come from both conversions and transfer growth (both medium and large churches show a 3% growth from conversions)
- 6% of the churches reported no conversions. However, another 27% would not state a number. It seems reasonable to assume that many of those that would not state a number did not know of anyone being converted, so the real figure is something like 33% of the churches having no conversions
- the number of churches having family services is growing fast, from 46% ten years ago, to 75% now
- just over half the churches allow women to take part in the services. However, this masks a key difference - for larger churches, the figure was 83%, whereas for smaller churches, it was just 21%
- 33% of churches have at least one full time or part time worker. Another 45% plan to have one within the next two years
Possibly the most important finding of this survey was a widening gap between small churches and medium-large churches.
Larger churches (those with 70 or more members):
- have 116 members / attenders, on average
- have been growing by 5% in the last two years
- have an age profile close to the over-all population of the UK
- have had 10 conversions and 8 baptisms in the past two years
- center their worship around a Sunday morning event
- Focus their evangelism on family services, youth activities and seeker Bible studies
- Let women take part in services
- Offer a wide range of activities
- Have a full or part-time worker
Smaller churches (those with 30 or fewer members):
- have 17 members / attenders, on average
- have been decreasing by 3% in the last two years
- have an age profile markedly skewed towards the elderly
- have had two conversions and 1 baptism in the past two years
- center their worship around the traditional Breaking of Bread service on Sunday mornings
- Do not let women take part in services
- Focus their evangelism on traditional Sunday evening Gospel Meetings
- Cannot offer a wide range of activities, but often try to
- Do not have a full or part time worker, and do not plan to get one
Emerging pattern
There is a clear pattern emerging from this research, which is also seen in other strands of church life, and which is vitally important for us to identify. The survey shows that there are two very different kinds of local church in the United Kingdom today:
Type A churches are
- small
- elderly
- extremely reluctant to change how things are done (e.g. the kinds of services that are held, the times of services, the role of women in leadership etc).
- declining in numbers
Neil Summerton, in his introduction, describes these churches as
...smaller churches which retain the basic approaches and style which were characteristic of the Brethren movement for over a century...
Type B churches are
- medium size or larger
- with a wide age range
- flexible with regard to methods (e.g. types of services, role of women in leadership, etc)
- growing
Summerton characterizes these as
... medium-sized and larger churches whose character and style has changed decisively over the period of these surveys, while maintaining a commitment to certain key ecclesiological insights of the movement.
It is important to notice that the difference between type A and type B churches is a matter of style, not theology. Type B churches are as theologically orthodox as type A churches. However, people in Type A churches will often confuse flexibility of style with theological compromise.
It is very likely that the number of Type A churches will continue to decline steeply in the next two decades:
...because of demographic structure [i.e. age] and lack of conversions, the loss of smaller churches is likely to continue for some time yet.
From this, it seems clear that the future lies with Type B churches. Does this mean there is no hope for smaller churches? Not necessarily - but if there is to be any hope for them, they will have to confront their reluctance to change, and their confusion of style and substance. The following quotation, although long, is important for the way it focuses on this key issue:
Brethren spirituality is closely associated with celebration of the Lord's Supper in this way and so any change in this area tends to be strongly resisted. So much so that any move away from what are, in effect, Brethren traditions handed down from past generations, is regarded by some as almost a denial of the faith.
... this resistance is often based more on emotional than biblical reasoning. It is clear that change in church life has to come. Churches must be able to adapt their programmes to the needs of today's worshippers - particularly those with families. Many of the larger churches have shown an ability to handle change in a number of areas of church life, especially in this area of Communion, and so meet the needs of today's worshippers. Instead of having worship services which are seen as irrelevant, uninvolving, dull and sterile spiritually to young Christians, they are seen as vibrant and motivating to faith and commitment, so that evangelism is invigorated and enabled.
Many of the smaller churches in our sample, overwhelmingly populated by senior citizens, seemingly emphasizing resistance to change in modes of worship, hymnbooks, and Bible versions, to name just a few of their practices, offer little that is attractive to today's generation of young Christians and their families. These people are looking for spiritual stimulus necessary for nurturing faith, but these churches, bound up in observing practices which owe more to the past than to today's imperatives, seem unable and unwilling to walk the life of faith. Hence these Christians turn away from churches which could use their vigour and liveliness. They detect a spirituality which has long since withdrawn into a ghetto, which is often no longer able to deal with a 20th Century Church, let alone the bustling world of the 21st Century which is crying out for a faith to combat the essential emptiness of everyday life. (Page 40)
The key question, then, for members of these churches, is whether my personal comfort with 'the way we've always done things' is more important to me than reaching the lost? Sadly, the results of this survey indicate that for many people in our churches - especially those who have been Christians the longest, and who should have grown the most spiritually - the answer is 'yes.'

Welcome to my new website The Ragingbear!!! This will finally be my new but permanent home for all my writings and information after years of trying different blogging platforms, website building platforms and social networks. I have finally found a platform in WordPress that gives me the freedom to play and experiment with various methods in one location instead of having multiple different locations. I will still be active on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube although as soon as I find an alternative to YouTube for this website I will switch because YouTube is becoming so commercial and kowtowing to music companies that it is stifling individual creativity.
While there will be some information about my life with ALS on this website since it has directly impacted over 40% of my life and has shaped the man I have become, it has never and will not define who I am. Accordingly this website will not be just about my struggles with ALS but more about my journey to be a better person and creating a life worth living despite whatever obstacles are thrown in my path. Most of my ALS specific writing will be directed toward the new MDA blog which I was asked to be a contributor but I hope as I continue building and refining this website I can include a separate section which can serve as an ALS specific blog.
For now, be patient as I continue to add older posts to complete my consolidation and refine the look and functioning of the website. I can only hope you find some things interesting and helpful to your life's journey to keep you coming back.
Be well and happy!

Lovely vacation spot
December 29, 2013
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 512 Baywatch. We had friends and family visit in and out over the holidays and could not have been more pleased with the cleanliness of the unit, its furnishings and convenient location. The resort was wonderful. The balcony views, stunning; and the beach, perfect. We took advantage of all the amenities, and also spent time just relaxing. We cooked all our meals in the unit and had everything we needed. The fifth floor was a wonderful location, very quiet and private. We were high enough up to avoid pool noise, but low enough to see what was happening on the beach. We would definitely love to stay here again, if the Lord allows. I would recommend 512 Baywatch to anyone headed to North Myrtle Beach.

Very Nice condo, great location
December 6, 2013
Family of 4 spent Thanksgiving holiday in Myrtle and this condo was the perfect place to stay. Besides being close to everything, the condo was clean, well stocked with kitchen utensils, linens, etc... Great ocean view, indoor pools and outdoor hot tubs / one heated pool open. Wireless internet was fair at best, but Ethernet cable was available to go the direct plug-in route to the laptop.

The view from 512 is spectacular from both the living room and master bedroom. The sounds of the waves crashing on the beach was relaxing. Good sized kitchen that was well equipped. Appliances worked perfectly and the kitchen was clean. Great mattresses is both bedrooms. Bathrooms were clean well lit and showers were vigorous. Chairs and sofa in living room were comfortable. Televisions worked well in all rooms.

Nice Condo
April 29, 2013
This is a lovely condo on the fifth floor in the centre unit of a three high-rise complex. The property is run like a hotel, and had many families with children, especially on the weekend. There are several swimming pools, hot tubs, a lazy river with inflated inner tubes, bars, restaurant, and someone to try to entice you to buy a time share. The only real downsides are that the appliances are very noisy, as is the water and you can hear the neighbours showering etc. Parking is across the street in a multi level parking garage. The first level is reserved for valet parking, and it is about the length of one to two city blocks to get to your vehicle, and this makes arriving with groceries and other purchases a bit difficult and time consuming. We appreciated that the cupboards were well stocked with dishes, baking pans, and even a slow cooker. There was dish soap and dishwasher detergent. Bring your kitchen linens though - dishcloth, teatowels, tablecloth. All in all, if this is the type of condo you are looking for, it has everything you need, the location and view are unbeatable.
Owner's reply:
Thanks so much for the review! So glad you enjoyed your stay in our condo. This resort is located at the end of Ocean Blvd. So there is virtually no traffic to cross the street to the parking deck. The parking deck is rather large to accommodate all the parking needs. There is loading/unloading parking available at the entrance to the building. Bellhops are also available to assist in any way and tipping is voluntary. As you stated the view is unbeatable. Thanks again.

Our family had a great time at the resort. The amenities were terrific and as described. Don't let the 18th floor scare you, the view was outstning and the elevators were always fast. They cleared the pool during a thunderstorm and we still didnt have to wait:-) condo was clean and ready early. I highly suggest a visit.

This condo has a spectacular view of the Ocean! My favorite part of our stay was leaving the sliding glass door slightly open and listening to the waves of the Ocean crashing on the beach and waking up to the most gorgeous sunrises.The condo was very clean, the beds were extremely comfortable and was the perfect layout for us. The resort has some great ammenties! The staff were friendly and helpful. The only negative about our stay was the resorts dinning in the Blue Room... it was way over priced and the food was HORRIBLE! ( I actually did not feel well after eating there) For $40.00+ tip per couple we could of had a really nice dinner elsewhere without being nauseous. But over all we enjoyed our stay and look forward to going back!
Date of stay: 10/4/14 Guest: Terri and family - ust returned from a fantastic stay at this beautiful condo. It was exactly as described and more. Owners were such a big help with everything from temperature to dinner suggestions. We will definitely be back again. Can't brag on it enough. Perfect for anyone.
Date of stay: 9/26/14 Guest: Harris family - Our family has been staying in this Condo for 3 years in a row. We love it and plan to stay there for as long as the owners will allow it. The unit is is clean and cozy. The view is fabulous and with everything Baywatch has to offer, you do not have to leave the property unless you want too!
Date of stay: 8/30/14 Guest: Gherke family - My wife and I can't say enough about this site. The condo was very clean and well kept. The employees were courteous and helpful. We felt like everyone went out of their way to make our vacation enjoyable. We spent most of the time at the pools and lazy river. It the most relaxing time we've had in a long time. The five star rating should have been a 10.
Date of Stay: 7/19/14 Guest: Barber family - We have stayed at Baywatch several times and this is definitely our favorite condo. Great location, view and very clean. The beds are very comfortable and rooms are spacious. Mary was great to work with and even called when we checked in to make sure everything was good. Highly recommend renting this condo!!
Date of Stay: 10/12/14 Guest: Tripp family - We thoroughly enjoyed your lovely condo. Well kept with up-to-date appliances. The location is great and we love staying at the Baywatch. We hope to stay at your condo in the future.
Date of stay: 5/19/14 Guest: Joyce - We stayed in the condo at Baywatch in May of 2014. Everything was perfect. The condo was very clean, the view from the balcony was beautiful and everything was there that we needed. We enjoyed the beach being just a few steps from the condo and several nice pools and hot tubs there also. There are many restaurants and shopping areas nearby. It is one of the nicest places that we have ever stayed. We would highly recommend this condo as an excellent place to stay.
Date of stay: 5/9/14 Guest: Ann - Our stay at Baywatch was amazing! The condo was beautiful, spacious, clean and the view was so peaceful! I recommend Baywatch to anyone who wants to have a hassle free, fun, enjoyable vacation....I will be back!
Date of Stay: 3/1/14 Guests: Nancy and Ted - Everything in your condo was very well suited to our needs. You have a well maintained, bright, and comfortable unit. On the beach, fifth floor, near all the stores, and golf courses, what more could we have asked for? Thank you for sharing your home.

The Wheeler's from West Virginia and Germany, date of date: 9/7/13.
Many, many thanks for allowing us to use your beautiful home while at Myrtle Beach. Your condo is by far the best, cleanest and most beautiful one in this area. Everything was available that we possibly could have needed. My niece and her husband were so impressed and will take very fond memories of your condo back to Germany. Again, thanks. We hope to be able to return next year. Take care and God bless you.
The Anderson family, date of stay: 8/24/13.
We enjoyed your lovely condo and the great view of the beach. Everything was nice and clean. This was a great relaxing vacation from our busy work life. It was great to have a washer and dryer for the kids clothes. Having TV's in 3 rooms was helpful for the kids to watch cartoons and their favorite movie. God bless you!
Two sisters and mother from Pennsylvania, date of stay: 8/18/13.
What a lovely place to view and enjoy God's awesome creation! My sister and I brought our 88 year old mother here. She so much enjoyed the lovely and clean home and the spectacular ocean view! My sister and I enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pools, spas and beach. Everything was sparkling clean. Southern hospitality very evident. May God abundantly bless you and your loved ones!

We loved our week in Myrtle Beach and we loved your condo! It was very clean and spacious, giving plenty of room to a family of four. We had everything we needed to enjoy our beach vacation. Thank you for the use of your lovely home!
Roberts family from Ottawa, Canada, Date of Stay: April, 2013
Lovely condo. Excellent base to explore the region. Nice to find almost everything we would need in the kitchen. Thank you!
The Walkers from Ontario, Canada. Date of Stay: 12/26/2012. Another amazing vacation in Myrtle Beach at Baywatch II, Unit 512. We really enjoyed our time with our daughter, her husband and two grandkids. The weather was beautiful except when H. Sandy came along for about a week or so. We will be back in 2013 (Jan-Mar) as this is like "our home" away from "home". Love this place!
Gwen, 12/23/2012
Just to let you know how much we really appreciated your kindness of letting us rent your home away from home for a week. It was fantastic. Everything you put on the internet was true regarding the condo. It was spacious, clean, good location, etc. Whenever we come back to Myrtle Beach we will look for your condo vacancy first.

We had a wonderful time for our week in your condo. Your upgrades to your unit are especially nice. We are glad we selected this unit and would certainly choose #1812 again. We were vacationing with our three daughters and families.
Thank you!

Southern Vacation
Review Submitted: November 28, 2012 Date of Stay: March 2012
This was our first 'southern' vacation as a family, and I wanted to let you know your condo could not have been more perfect. The set up was perfect and it was very clean. Our kids really enjoyed the pools, and my husband and I loved the view. We hope to be back in the future
Great Condo! Would stay again.
Review Submitted: September 25, 2012 Date of Stay: September 2012
The condo was beautifully decorated! The warm colors and upgrades to the condo made for a wonderful and homey stay. The new La-Z-Boy recliners were espically nice. The view from the 18th floor was amazing and we enjoyed watching the sunrises every morning. One thing that could've been better was the cleaning of the hall bathroom upon arrival. I would stay again and hope to in the future. Thanks Again!
Review Submitted: July 14, 2012 Date of Stay: May 2012
Our Stay was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! You and your husband are truly blessed with a gorgeous home! All but Sunday the weather was spectacular! Thank you so so much for sharing your home with us! It was pure heaven and refreshing to wake up and fall asleep to the sound of the Ocean and wake up to the breath taking sunrises. I honestly did not want to leave and was kicking myself in the rear for not booking an entire week... But like the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. My husband and I and my in-laws can not thank you enough! and we look forward to the opportunity to come back
Bob & Sharon from Greensboro, NC

We had a fantastic week in #1812. It had all the amenities you could ask for, very comfortable and well appointed. The view from the 18th floor was spectacular and it was quiet (except for the sound of the ocean). We hope the unit will be available the next time we go to the beach. Thank you Mary and Carlton for a wonderful week.

Cozy, Cheerful Condo
Our stay at this property was magnifcent! The rooms are decorated so nicely and the colors are very cheerful. Not just your ordinary condo room. The owners have really put a lot of effort in this condo to make it so enjoyable to their visitors. Have been coming to the Baywatch for 5 years and this to me is the best seat in the house!!!
AWESOME TRIP! Donna and Roger from Blandon, PA Arrived 6/24/2012. We just got home from a week long stay at a condo in Bay Watch. It was our 1st trip to Myrtle Beach, and it was an awesome trip. The condo we stayed in was on the 18th floor, and it was quiet and clean. The best part was the balcony that overlooked the ocean. Waking up to the ocean sounds was heavenly. Accss to the pools and the beach was a snap. The condo size was perfect and very clean. Everything you need for a week long stay was there. We contaced the owners by phone and email...Responses were prompt and vert informative. We will definitely come back and stay there again if we can...
This condo is wonderful! Pam arrived 6/23/2012. It is beautifully decorated, clean, relaxing, and I must say the beds are so comfortable. The owners were great about answering the questions I had before booking. The pool area was always clean with plenty of chairs for relaxing. I would highly recommend this condo and hopefully we will get to stay here again. Thank you to the owners for helping make our vacation wonderful.
Great Condo! Arrived June 9, 2012. Great condo! Thanks for sharing your beach home. Nicely updated kitchen, TVs, and decor. Wasn't sure about liking being up on 18th floor, but I am glad we were. It was high enough to be able to filter out some of the pool noise, but the peaceful sound of the ocean came through nicely. Plenty of elevators too, never waited more than 1.5 minutes, and that was on Saturday when everyone was checking out. Look forward to staying here again!
Great Views! Arrived April 27, 2012. Great views and relaxing sounds of the ocean from the 18th floor balcony. Very clean condo with beautiful coastal decor. Quick access to the beach or one of the many pools, lazy river, or hot tubs. Abundant shopping and resturants closeby. Golf, Golf, Golf!! These 4 adults on a getaway from the kids and grandkids can't wait to return!!
The Richmonds from North Carolina. Arrived December 31, 2011. We decided to take a last minute trip to the beach and the accommodations in 1812 were great! The condo was beautifully decorated!! Everything was comfortable and most of all...nice and clean. We look forward to staying here again!
Spiritual Retreat for my wife and me! A beautiful place to stay and reflect on life. Tom and Barbara Date of Stay December 27, 2011 From the moment you walk into this beautiful condo you begin to relax and forget your problems. It is easy to see that the owners love and care about their place at the beach. The colors are well thought out and it is so clean and comfortable. One of the greatest views of the strand I have ever seen in all the years I have been coming to Myrtle Beach. We were so blessed to have such a wonderful place to stay and relax in. Thank you for sharing your place with us . We would definitely come back to one of the nicest condos in North Myrtle Beach!
Best family vacation EVER!!! Dana (Charlotte, NC) Arrived 6/25/11 Our family just spent a fabulous week here! The condo is beautifully furnished with comfortable beds and living room recliners. The layout couldn't have been more perfect-the kids's room was situated so that the adults could stay up late without risking waking them up. They lovedhaving their own tv and DVD player too. The condo was on the 18th floor which meant the views were fabulous. My husband and I had been concerned about being so high up because our experience with higher floors on other vacations hadn't been positive because we spent so much time on the elevator. The Bay Watch elevators are very fast and efficient, so this was not a problem at all. We also found it amazing that while you could hear the ocean inside the condo with the doors closed, you couldn't hear the music from the beach bar or any of the other noise outside or even the neighbors! The condo also has it's own parking garage which was easily accessible. Finally, it is close to everything!!! We will definitely be back!!!
Wonderful Vacation Mimi (Williamson, GA) Arrived 9/10/11 The condo was beautiful, the view was breath taking. We had a wonderful time close to everything you need. We have been going to Myrtle Beach for years this is our first stay at the Bay Watch but it won't be our last. We hope to rent this condo again.
Absolutely Perfect! Betsy (Ohio) Arrived: 9/17/11 We just got back from our first family vacation and this condo was everything we could have asked for and more. It had a gorgeous view and because it was on the 18th floor, it was quiet. When we arrived and looked over the condo, it was spotless. Very well maintained with nice decor. We loved that the kids were able to have their own room with their own tv. We were close to everything we needed and wanted to do. We hope to come back soon for another stay.

Albuquerque blasted in series opener Thursday night
A few days ago, the Albuquerque Isotopes were on a roll, but since then they've lost three straight contests, including being on the wrong end of a waxing to start a long homestand.
The Isotopes were thumped by the Sacramento River Cats 16-5 at Isotopes Park Thursday. The River Cats pounded out 18 hits and scored 11 times in the first three innings to cruise to the win.
Unfortunately for the Isotopes, the River Cats are expecting slugger Manny Ramirez to join the team this weekend as Ramirez starts a rehab assignment.
Sacramento designated hitter Chris Carter went 3-for-5 with two home runs Thursday, scoring four times and driving in six runs. Center fielder Grant Green was 3-for-6 and scored four runs.
The River Cats chased off Albuquerque starting pitcher Michael Antonini (1-2) after just 1-1/3 innings. Antonini surrendered eight hits and six earned runs.
One of the few highlights for the Isotopes was shortstop Luis Cruz, who went 3-for-4 with a double, triple and two runs scored.
Albuquerque plays Sacramento tonight and Saturday night at 7:05 p.m. Sunday's game is a 1:35 p.m. start time at Isotopes Park.
The Isotopes (24-17) will be at home through May 28. This is their longest homestand of the season.

November Art Challenge - Just Suppose...Juxtapose

1. The book cover or poster must reflect a Trek TV series episode (not "The Wrath of Khan" with the TNG crew);
As long as it's taking an ep or movie from one series into another series it's okay. I said episode mainly from habit, since three of the five series didn't have a movie.
DFScott wrote:
2. The crew used in the artwork must reflect a different Trek TV series (as opposed to a certain 2009 movie, and as opposed to the "New Frontier" crew from the book series);
Hmmm.....good question on the movie. I hadn't really given the 2009 movie any consideration. Is your entry based on using elements from the movie?
I suppose you could use a book crew, I think it'd have less punch, though....although I think that mainly because I don't read the books.
DFScott wrote:
3. The supporting cast used in the artwork must be the original supporting cast from the episode in question (so "Balance of Terror" may feature, say, Avery Brooks but also Mark Lenard).
That is not a requirement, but if you have the photoshop skills to pull it off, I'd love to see it!
So if your intention was to do "Balance of Terror" as it would've been done on DS9, then you could use a Romulan from DS9 as long as it were clear that your entry was a DS9 version of "Balance of Terror". (So if we existed in the universe where this was the case, there'd only be 78 episodes of the original series since "Balance of Terror" was not done as an episode of the original series, and was instead a DS9 episode)
Also, it seems my use of the word "crew" is causing some confusion. Looking back, it's clear that I could've worded it as "create an entry that takes an episode from one series and put's it in another (using a wide variety of formats from book covers, movie poster, t.v. guide cover, etc)". As long as it's clear which episode is being used and which series it's being made a part of.
For example "Doomsday Machine"/TNG". Or "In The Pale Moonlight"/ ENT."
This should open it up to a wide range of art styles since the crew itself need not be present. So to use Solarbaby's entry as an example:
The episode is Classic Trek episode "The Changeling"
The series she chose is Deep Space Nine
If it were a book cover, it would be okay to use the DS9 logo, the episode title and a puddle of goo.
Or you could have a minimalist movie poster that was a silhouette of the 1701 and a Borg cube for "Best Of Both Worlds".
Hopefully this will help.

Scott Horton Interviews Gareth Porter
Gareth Porter, independent historian and journalist for IPS News, discusses how WikiLeaks badly underestimated the mainstream media's ability to filter out material damaging to government, the Russian debunking of the US theory that Iran got advanced ballistic missiles from N. Korea, the New York Times' leading role in spreading anti-Iran propaganda and how omissions within the Pentagon's Afghanistan progress report indicate the insurgency's growing strength.
MP3 here. (18:02)
Gareth Porter is an independent historian and journalist. He is the author of Perils of Dominance: Imbalance of Power and the Road to War in Vietnam. His articles appear on Counterpunch, Huffington Post, Inter Press Service News Agency and Antiwar.com.
4 Responses to "Gareth Porter"
Thanks a lot for sharing. You have done a brilliant job. Your article is truly relevant to my study at this moment, and I am really happy I discovered your website. However, I would like to see more details about this topic. I'm going to keep coming back here.
For 40 years or more the Pentagon has been aiming to achieve a disarming first strike capability. For that reason chief Trident missile engineer Bob Aldridge -www.plrc.org-resigned. It´s suicidal because the Russian response can only be Launch On Warning. See his books First Strike! The Pentagon´s Strategy For Nuclear War and Nuclear Empire (especially chapter 9). Bob Aldridge commented on the mssiles to be deployed on ships in the Black Sea in Bulgaria and on land in Romania and Poland by 2015: "Whether they are on ships or land, they are still a necessary component for an unanswerable first strike."

I am pretty dissappointed in you guys for not talkin more on the fact that wikileaks can exist when a torrent site can be shut down anytime the government wants it to. And Porters comment seem naive "give the docs to us not fox news" as if that isnt exactly what a real whistleblower does. Do you honestly think that if Assange was genuine that he wouldnt be on Max Keiser, Alex Jones, real news, and your show everyday.

Future Blood Tests may Reveal Mental Disorders such as Bipolar Disorder and Depression
(The following post was written and contributed by an individual, who, like me, is also a former disability claims examiner)
Recently, I read an article about a blood test that may have the capability of revealing mental illness and I must say that the possibility both excited and worried me. Speaking as a daughter and mother of bipolar individuals, the thought that medical professionals would be better equipped to diagnose my loved one's mental status through a blood test excited me. It is often difficult for medical professionals to assess the severity of their patients' moods by observations and conversations with them.
The research study involved twenty-nine individuals who had already been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. The purpose of the study was to determine the severity of the individual's bipolar disorder, and was accomplished by questioning these individuals about their mood at the time they were given the blood test. Researchers assessed gene activity in the blood, as to which genes were active and which were turned off in patients who indicated high moods and those who indicated low moods.
The results of this research were combined with genetic information from animal models and samples taken from the brains of deceased individuals who had been diagnosed with depression and bipolar disorder. The assessment of research data has enabled researchers to identify ten genes in the blood that are useful in predicting and individual's mood. The accuracy of the blood test as to mood was within acceptable ranges of other medical tests. Researchers were able to correctly assess a high mood eighty-five percent of the time and a low mood seventy-seven percent of the time.
Presently, medical professionals relay upon their observations and the patient's statements, consequently the severity of an individual's illness is easily underestimated or overestimated by their treating physician. Dr. Alexander Niculescu, III, the lead researcher of the study, which was published recently in the Journal of Molecular Psychiatry, believes that an objective test that enables a medical professional to determine mental status, severity of illness, and assessment of response to treatment is a huge step in the right direction. Other medical professionals are rightly concerned about the possible ethical questions that a blood test for mental illness would raise. For instance, insurance companies to deny benefits to potential clients could use these same blood tests; blood tests could be used to determine an individual's competence, enrollment in college, to screen potential employees, or a myriad of other controversial ways.
After considering all of the above, I have to say that I would not wish for my child to be denied access to educational or employment opportunities because of a blood test. I worry that blood tests used to assess mental illness may become a weapon for employers, law enforcement, and insurance companies. In fact these blood tests will most likely be used for the reasons listed above as much or more than as a tool for improved assessment of the severity of an individual's bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia, or anxiety disorders. As with so many other medical advancements, we as a society must be careful not to open a Pandora's box.

ive played ONE game on double impact.. its not a good map by any means
a competitive map has good flow, good item placement, and good design. Both double impact and finnegan's have layouts that have a lot of right-hand turns. This makes for some frustrating strafes and its easy to catch a flag carrier in a corner. Also both maps have a LOT of armor and health at the disposal of flag d. On double impact you have a flag that you have to rocket jump to if you enter the base from one of 3 entrances. Its also easy to get lost in a winding map like double impact. Double impact reminds me of a UT map which is a slower paced game than Quake.
Its about good flow, and maintaining a high pace to the game

Thanks again for helping to increase my knowledge!

Check out my blog, EmeraldProductions:
If you guys were to add these maps to QL you will make every CTF person happy and it would be probably the best update for CTF.
Add these and I'm sure you won't see as many topics about adding new CTF maps.
Maps names** q3wcp17, q3wcp18, q3wcp9
I agree, plus several other maps. Though they should be renamed so that we don`t have a repitition of "Crossings" in the names. My suggested names would be Googolplex, (cp9) Divided, (cp17) and Moonrover (cp18)
Then again, I just hope these maps won`t "wash out" the others. While these maps can be great fun (nothing like nuking a kamikaze in the other guy`s base on cp9 - and yes I play these in Team Arena) variety is always good and I hope they don`t crop up votes like dm6 does in premium. It`s probably going to happen though. Nothing against your suggestion, I`m talking about the crowd who loves to callvote dm6 / Overkill / Thunderstruck over and over again.

Smartphones Are Causing Stress
The Stresses of Smartphones
Like us on Facebook
Study volunteers admit their constant checking, rechecking, and triple checking for new notifications has them experiencing phantom vibrations, believing their phone is chirping for attention even in those rare moments it's not. Most of the participants originally began using smartphones to keep up with work on the go, which quickly spiraled into 24/7 replies to emails, tweets, and Facebook messages.
Companies are starting to react to the pressures of work-life balance in the face of technology. Volkswagen, for example, shuts off its BlackBerry email server outside of office hours so employees can recharge without a mobile distraction. Are you feeling the stress of being tethered to a smartphone?

The victim in a Tuesday traffic crash is hospitalized in stable condition, according to the Coshocton County Sheriff's Office.
The sheriff's office said a pickup truck driven by Eric Franks, 43, of Coshocton, was headed east in the 1700 block of Chestnut Street around 8:20 p.m. Tuesday. Franks lost control and struck two parked vehicles, the sheriff's office reported.
Franks refused treatment on the scene. Cynthia Rodehaver, a passenger in the truck, was taken by Coshocton County EMS to Coshocton Hospital. From there, she was taken by medical helicopter to the Wexner Medical Center at Ohio State University for treatment of undisclosed injuries.
The incident remains under investigation by the sheriff's office. Speed is considered a factor in the crash.

2011 was a challenging year for me! The challenge was
- To acquire an old Cave house in Cappadocia, Turkey
- And turn it into an Unique Design Cave Hotel
I spent the first half of the year in structuring, re-decorating the hotel and the second half of the year in building the management team, working out the marketing and managing this new venture.
Let me explain what I mean by Unique Design Cave Hotel.

I was dragging music files from folder to a 2MB USB pen. all worked fine, however an Error Copying file(name of music etc) The directory or file cannot be created, appears. the USB is less than 45% full? Please advise me
Since it's 2MB, maybe it's full.
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
" I was dragging music files from folder to a "2MB USB pen."
How many files and what type ?
MP3 music files are normally between 2-5 mb alone,
audio files can be 50 mb each
As Mechanix2Go say it is likely FULL , 2mb isnt much space
"I hope my Suggestions Helped"
2MB's or 2GB's ? I have no problems with sending MP3's to mine using copy/paste. you may need to format the drive??
If it's 2Gb and FAT16, there is a maximum number of files that can be placed in the root directory - if that's the case, move the files to a folder or subfolder (no such limit there)

In addition to being a math teacher, Mike is pursuing a graduate degree from the University of Houston in Applied Mathematics. Mike also enjoys writing and storytelling. He's a natural writer and is learning how to write for his own voice. His essay for this program is a perfect example.
Here's Mike Vogel with his essay for KUHF's This I Believe.
"Every year the newness of a new year wears off by mid-September and then it's eight months of a grueling uphill battle. I question often whether or not it's worth it...all the work and sweat to try and teach my students mathematics.
They don't get it. They don't study. They don't have an inquisitive bone in their bodies. They don't do their homework. How can I teach them anything if they don't respond to my efforts with effort of their own? If my students knew just a little what I go through to provide them with quality instruction maybe then they might start to appreciate.
The little things are countless. I write recommendation letters hoping for a simple "thanks" in return. I baked cookies once and never heard the end of why don't I bake more often? I create engaging lessons about planets following elliptical orbits and ocean tides modeled by trigonometric functions and volumes of solids revealed through revolution, integration, and play-doh and my students are too busy texting their friends to notice.
They stopped listening a while ago. The year is long and often I wonder why do I do this? But then a funny thing happens on the way to the prom.
I'm a little bitter giving up yet another precious weekend night to chaperone. The bitterness is eased by my lovely English-teacher girlfriend on my arm. From the second we arrive we are mobbed by student after student wanting to say hi. They are very interested in meeting my date. They express their surprise that I hadn't in fact Photoshopped her into the photo of us sitting on my desk. They approach her with a "hi Sarah, nice to finally meet you. We've heard all about you. You really have a lot of work to do with Mr. Vogel's grammar."
Just when you thought they never listen to a word you say.
And as they turn to me, say hi, give me a hug with their eyes sparkling for the first time since I don't remember when...I see something in that moment. I see the relief in a very long year drawing to an end. I see genuine care and respect and admiration where I swear I saw nothing but contention and apathy and disinterest. And I see gratitude. I see that simple little thank-you I've wanted to hear all year. Thank-you for caring. Thank-you for all the hard work. Thank-you for teaching me the Quadratic Formula. Thank-you for being a teacher. Thank-you for being MY teacher.
So I do believe teaching is hard. But those thank yous and moments like these make it all worth while. This I believe."

With our firstborn son, Lukas, welcomed into the world just 20 hours earlier, my wife and I were watching the Baptist East baby channel that Tuesday morning when a kindly volunteer mentioned something about a building falling. We changed channels, leaving behind instruction on feeding, burping and holding an infant, and we saw a stark and horrific contrast to the nurturing lessons we had been learning. As a first-time father, I was already nervous. I had wondered if I could ever be as strong and protective as my own father. Now, I felt certain I couldnt.
When we got home the next day, I cautiously looked at the skies. What could happen next? I wont forget the poignant and pathetic pleas of survivors to the media begging others to look for their loved ones. They held photos to the camera wishing someone could identify the missing. They realized the improbability of the survival of their husband, wife, sister or brother. Yet they had hope.
Days later I would be back on the couch with a sleeping Lukas in my arms watching Bruce Springsteen perform My City of Ruins on the America: A Tribute to Heroes telethon. The lyrics, Now with these hands I pray Lord, for the strength Lord, for the faith Lord, resonated with me. I would need the faith to believe the world was not such a bad place and that I could raise and shelter my child the way my parents had done for me 30 years earlier. But I also understood the reality that the world was no longer the same.

My husband, Jon, and I had chosen Sept. 11, 2001, to be the day to have our baby. Since I was being induced into labor, it was a random choice and one that just happened to work better for our schedules.
We checked into the hospital at 6 a.m. and had all the tubes in place; my water had even broken. I was snoozing in the bed when shortly after 9 a.m., Jon woke me up and said, You better watch this. We sat glued to the television all day horrified at the events we saw taking place. At different points during the day I thought to myself, I'm not sure I want to have this baby today, and I really don't remember the labor pains that I felt with my other children.
Close to 11 p.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, Lucas Michael Noel was born and welcomed into a world of uncertainty. We were so glad he had finally arrived but yet so tired and upset over the days happenings.
On a day when so many lives were lost, there were a few blessings that were also given that day and I consider our son Luke to be one of them.
Soon to be 10 years old, Luke celebrates his birthday just like other boys. But he always pulls out his baby book and studies the newspaper clippings of that day when he was born and asks questions about it. Whether it's ironic or fateful, he is one of the most patriotic boys that I know. He wants to be a soldier when he grows up.
