Milwaukee Air & Water Show returns for 11th year of free family fun
The Milwaukee Air & Water Show is back for its 11th year Saturday and Sunday and is expected to draw tens of thousands of people to Milwaukee's lakefront.
Are you coming in for a landing? Follow this planning guide to make your experience at one of Milwaukee's largest free events easier and, we hope, more fun.
Milwaukee County Parks is charging $20 per parking spot along N. Lincoln Memorial Drive, but side-street parking near N. Prospect Ave. or north of Bradford Beach is usually free (although it can go fast on weekends of the Air & Water Show). For the best parking, enter Veterans Park from E. Lagoon Road off N. Lincoln Memorial Drive, or go to the O'Donnell Park structure from E. Michigan St. Handicapped parking is available along N. Lincoln Memorial Drive and at Veterans Park.
Safety tip: Bring cash to accommodate all parking scenarios.
To reserve a competitive seat, plan to arrive by 9 a.m., when the gates open. Most spectators arrive at this time to catch the water show, which starts at 10 a.m., and stay put for the air show, which kicks off at noon.
Reserved-seating tickets start at $35 online at milwaukeeairshow.com or at the air show box office (200 yards south of Northpoint Custard, 2272 N. Lincoln Memorial Drive) and guarantee one seat on either Saturday or Sunday for: center-point seating, the Flight Line club, sun tables, the Thunderbird VIP skybox, a child ticket (kids under 6 are free) or a lakefront parking pass. Tickets usually sell out by the weekend.
Best viewing spots
The parking circle around Northpoint Custard is the center of air show operations — where announcer Herb Hunter is stationed, along with reserved-seating locations — but the main viewing area spans from Bradford Beach to the Milwaukee Yacht Club at McKinley Marina at 1700 N. Lincoln Memorial Drive. For the best viewing, walk north from Veterans Park. But sky-gazers as far north as Whitefish Bay should be able to see some of the planes, according to an air show spokeswoman.
Food, displays and kids' stuff
The Milwaukee Air & Water Show is free (except for the reserved seating), but food, beverages and air show merchandise will be for sale from vendors stationed along Lincoln Memorial Drive. Sponsor displays, military recruiting areas, simulator rides, jet cockpits and a kids' zone with inflatable rides, bounce houses and other kid games will also line the lakefront.
Weather worries
Organizers say the Air & Water Show continues unless there is lightning or threatening water conditions, respectively.
What: Milwaukee Air & Water Show
When: 10 a.m. to about 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday — water shows begin at 10 a.m., with air shows following at noon; gates open at 9 a.m. both days
Where: above and in Lake Michigan; best viewing is along the lakefront, with Northpoint Custard near Bradford Beach as the center point
How much: free; reserved-seat spots start at $35; see milwaukeeairshow.com for details
The Thunderbirds won't be here this year — they were grounded by the sequestration — but here's a quick look at some of the performers that will be at the Milwaukee Air & Water Show:
Go ahead and jump: Made up of former U.S. Army Golden Knights, the All Veteran Parachute Team kicks off both days' events at noon with a local celebrity sports jumper: former Brewers star Jeff Cirillo on Saturday, and former Packers running back Ahman Green on Sunday.
Formation players: Among the weekend's air extravaganzas will be two tactical jet demonstrations: by the FA-2 Sea Harrier Jet Demonstration Team and the A-4B Skyhawk.
Acrobats overhead: Several top aerial troupes are taking to Milwaukee's skies, too, including the Geico Skytypers T-6 Aerobatic Team and the Aerostars Aerobatic Team.
Water sports: Don't-try-this-at-the-beach acrobats are on display when the Aquanuts Water Ski Stunt Show Team and Jet Ski Stunt Shows take to the water. Others setting sail for the weekend's activities include demonstrations featuring the Hustler 50 Shipyard Marine Race Boat, Shipyard Marine 38-foot Donzi-ZR and the Milwaukee Fire Department Trident fireboat.

Initially, I tried putting a cold cup of coffee upon my new Mr. Coffee and was disappointed in the warmer's ability to heat up an already cold cup of coffee. (tried both metal and ceramic mug)
The good news is that if you put a fresh hot cup of coffee right from the coffee maker onto the "burner" that it does a pretty good job in keeping it hot from that point. I review this as satisfactory performance and give extra credit for its slim and sleek design.
Both units were tested unloaded (i.e. with no cup), and then loaded with a ceramic mug filled with room temp water. Here are the stats:
Salton: 23 watts, 260 deg-F unloaded temp, 245 degree with full cup.
Mr. Coffee: 17 watts, 226 deg-F unloaded, 180 degree with full cup.
So it appears that the Mr Coffee is a bit underpowered--it has a lower (albeit safer) starting temperature that can't be maintained under load. Once loaded, the surface temp is too low for useful heat transfer. Perhaps the Salton's design was guided by an engineer, while the Mr Coffee was guided by an attorney.
All that being said, here are a couple of satisfied customers who recommend the product we just acquired.

I'm Mounira Al Hmoud, a Washington D.C.-based news reporter and producer for Francophone and Anglophone media in Washington D.C. My current work includes being on the campaign trail for French news channel Canal Plus and I-tele.
After graduating from The American University of Paris in 2011, I moved to the U.S. to study political reporting at Boston University's College of Communication. And because you can't really come to the U.S. without going to its nation's capital, I decided to become a freelance news reporter and producer in Washington D.C. I'm fully bilingual in French and English and have a conversational level in Spanish and Arabic. What I enjoy the most in my work is human and social interaction, as well as breaking down complex stories through their impact on real people. And yes, I do try to get out of the Beltway for that.
In 2012, I covered the Massachusetts Legislature as the statehouse correspondent for the MetroWest Daily News and the Vermont delegation in the U.S. Congress in D.C. for the Barre-Monpelier Times Argus, when Senator Bernie Sanders was not an object of curiosity and still available for interviews. I have written for The National Law Journal / Legal Times and was a multimedia editor intern at the French international news agency Agence France-Presse in 2014.
My work in Paris included an internship at a major news channel, France24, and an online magazine at Glamourparis.com. While in Boston, I contributed to The Christian Science Monitor's Science section and to the largest francophone magazine in the U.S., France-Amérique.

Xena: Warrior Princess Will Inspire Military Body Armor (And That's A Good Thing)
If we are going to send men and women off to war, we'd like to think they are as safe, well-protected, and supported as possible. And after that, we really hope they look totally badass, too. So, when it comes to true Amazonian butt-kicking, for this '90s-obsessed writer, there is but one emblem of badass-ery: A princess. A warrior princess, in fact.
Since Lucy Lawless is the paradigm of cool and safety, when focus groups set out to revamp and increase effectiveness for female military personnel, they took some inspiration from Xena's incredible costuming — specifically, her totally tough breastplates. The idea behind the Xena-esque design is that the plate will spread out the impact of any bullets while contouring more to the feminine shape.
Hey, if there is any fictional character to base the safety of our soldiers on, it should be Xena. Just as long as they leave out that pleated leather skirt ... that one belongs to us plebes. (Huffington Post)

Why did it take this to make us a football family again?
It began gently, almost hesitantly at first. Picking up on the emotions of the 700 or so away fans, the tens of thousands gathered inside White Hart Lane glanced sideways for approval and then added their voices to the hubbub until it became a primal roar.
'Fab-reece Moo-umba,' they implored, 'Fab-reece Moo-umba'. That the noise grew from an eerie, stunned silence made it more powerful, yet more poignant.
The scene on the pitch had transcended all petty rivalries and entrenched loyalties. A young man lay stricken, not breathing; a young man whose sudden collapse had first drawn the usual howls of scepticism until the crowd, almost as one, realised this was no mere ploy and fell instantly mute.
Shock: Fabrice Muamba collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrest at White Hart Lane on Saturday
Powerless, appalled, visibly disturbed, they did the only thing they could. They sang the man's name in the forlorn hope that this would inspire his revival, like a patient awaking from a coma on hearing the voice of his favourite pop star.
Some cried, some covered their faces. People go to football for many things but rarely to be reminded of human mortality, our extreme vulnerability, even at the supposed peak of fitness.
Sport teaches us the capricious nature of fate, almost daily. A deflection here, a flag raised in error there. Teams ride their luck, or get the rub of the green, we say. This was a different kind of fortune, however: this was genetic luck, cellular luck, luck that could be harboured inside any of us right now, biding its time, waiting its moment.
Show of support: A Tottenham fan carries flowers for Muamba outside the London Chest Hospital
We just don't expect to see it played out as public drama: a healthy man, 23, inexplicably face down in the turf. And, in that instant, everything changed. What seemed so important was rendered meaningless; the priority of the day was reduced to an inconsequential grain of trivia.
Onlookers searched desperately for a sign, a movement, a flicker that would tell them it wasn't the worst that had happened: it did not come. We wait still.
Fabrice Muamba is not a household name in modern football terms. He is not Wayne Rooney or Lionel Messi but, as the hours have passed since he was removed from sight, motionless and no longer breathing, handed to the professionals with the tearful prayers of family and friends for company, there has been universal admiration for his circumstances.
He grew up in Kinshasa, capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, formerly Zaire, and as a child witnessed the effects of the first and second Congo Wars that claimed almost 14,000 lives.
Marcel, his father, was a political refugee (an ally of deposed President Mobutu Sese Seko - not a nice man, but that is another story) who fled to Britain in fear of his life to escape rebel forces.
Fabrice's uncle Ilunga was murdered and the child was raised in a war zone. Friends died. Games of football would be swiftly cut short as the noise of gunfire encroached on play.
Marcel lived in detention centres here until he was granted asylum. His last words to his son before disappearing had been: 'I'll see you when I see you.' That meeting took three years.
Fabrice says he has never asked for specific details of what happened to uncle Ilunga, who gave him shelter when his father left. There are some things it is better not to know.
By the time Muamba arrived at Heathrow Airport with his mother, Gertrude, he was 11. It was December 1999, and snowing, and the boy spoke only French and the Congolese dialect, Lingala. He attended Kelmscott School in Walthamstow, east London, where 60 per cent of pupils do not have English as a first language. Despite this, Muamba was so scared of being considered foolish he would exist in silence for hours.
Tributes: A fan lays a scarf alongside shirts and flowers left outside the Reebok Stadium in Bolton
Football got him through. He was a big boy, six foot by the time he was 14, and came to the attention of Arsenal after just three years in England. He joined the academy and made his first-team debut at 17. He gained 10 GCSEs and A levels in English, French and mathematics. If he had not been a footballer, he says, he would have been an accountant.
Given his personal trials, this is a quite remarkable young man. Not that they knew this at White Hart Lane. They simply understood that a Bolton Wanderers player who had previously been an energetic midfield presence was suddenly prone in the grass with his eyes closed and when he fell there was nobody near him. His right foot had twitched momentarily but, after that, all was still.
So they sang as a kind of plea, for him to hear them and wake up, so they could go back to how it was before and get on with the game. And it is a good game, and everybody at White Hart Lane loves it, dearly.
Message: Real Madrid players wear shirts to support both Muamba and Barcelona defender Eric Abidal, who is waiting for a liver transplant
They were there to watch one of the oldest fixtures in football, an FA Cup quarter-final, first played on January 20, 1872, between Wanderers and Crystal Palace (the match ended goalless and both teams progressed to the semi-final, because the FA hadn't really got the hang of knockout football in those days).
It is the traditionalists who turn out most willingly for the Cup, so the fans, like the players and officials, knew exactly how to act when faced with human tragedy. Unite, empathise, support in the truest sense of the word.
Disaster used to unfold over the airwaves or on the screen. Now we monitor social media, where concern for Muamba quickly spread worldwide. Andrea Pirlo, of AC Milan, dedicated the goals in the 5-0 win over Fiorentina to him.
Meanwhile, Gordon Strachan, speaking on ITV's highlights programme, spoke of the crowd almost moving towards the fallen player as if to envelop him in love and hope. They had to make do instead with cheers and applause. Futile gestures, but heartfelt.
Concern: Bolton manager Owen Coyle (left) and chairman Phil Gartside outside the London Chest Hospital
So, we are not all that different, as people; as supporters. We share, we feel, we are not alone. The occasion of a young man fighting for life in a London hospital also affords time for reflection. To wind the clock back to before Muamba fell and ask: why so much hate? Why does it need sadness for football to take stock?
Last week, Derby County supporters mocked the passing of Nottingham Forest chairman Nigel Doughty. Theirs was not an uncommon outrage. Hillsborough, Munich, infant death, suicide, racism, slander, football crowds are breaking down the parameters of what is socially acceptable all in the name of tribalism or some misguided approximation of banter. We are as defined by who we hate as who we love.
And nobody sits together anymore. A Bolton fan arriving by mistake in the Tottenham Hotspur end would have been physically threatened and hounded out for merely supporting his team on Saturday and vice versa, were there a replay.
We have all seen it happen. A mother and daughter, followers of Leeds United, needed rescue for cheering the opposition from the main stand at Bradford City. Two Arsenal fans, father and son, applauded a fine Mathieu Flamini goal at Reading and were subject to horrendous abuse until they left the premises.
Eerie silence: But the Spurs and Bolton fans united to sing a tribute to Muamba
These interlopers were not aggressive or provocative. They were probably casual fans who had been given a pair of unused season tickets by a friend. They didn't know the new rules of engagement: if you're not one of us, there are no rules.
And then we fear a young man is dying and we are a family again. The football family, as FIFA brand it. And that is all it is, most days: a marketing man's sound-bite. We curse and berate and denounce and abuse but advertisers would run a mile from that so, for public consumption, we are the football family. And that was how it must have felt at White Hart Lane on Saturday as both sides filed quietly, respectfully away, the match abandoned and all the anger around it, too.
Football will always evoke passion; the fiercest loyalties; the rawest emotions. It always did. In past generations, though, the catalyst was the game, not the expression of spiteful thoughts.
Fabrice Muamba got the warmest reception an ex-Arsenal player has received at White Hart Lane without pulling on a Tottenham shirt but we should not be comfortable with what it took to inspire this. When local rivals Blackburn Rovers visit Bolton next Saturday, we will see what football has truly learned.
Europe is so much more fun this way
This is arguably the best Champions League quarter-final round in recent memory, and not just because the competition is surely heading towards another epic confrontation between Barcelona and Real Madrid; Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
There are seven countries represented: Spain; Germany; Portugal; England; France; Italy and, delightfully, Cyprus. Not since season 1996-97, when Karl-Heinz Riedle scored twice for Borussia Dortmund in the final, has there been such an open competition.
That year, there were eight countries in play: Holland (Ajax), Spain (Atletico Madrid), France (Auxerre), Germany (Dortmund), Italy (Juventus), England (Manchester United), Portugal (Porto) and Norway (Rosenborg).
Simply the best: But the Champions League is also enriched by the presence of smaller teams than Barca
Not so many stellar names, you will notice, but the Champions League was often more surprising and compelling for it. In the seasons after, it was quite common for six countries still to be involved in the last eight.
Then, as UEFA's financial booty kicked in, the variety dwindled and the elite assumed control. Just four nations were involved in 2000-01 (three England, three Spain, Germany, Turkey); 2001-02 (three Spain, two England, two Germany, Greece); 2002-03 (three Italy, three Spain, England, Holland) and 2008-09 (four England, two Spain. Germany, Portugal).

Good for the prestige of the powerhouse leagues, bad for a tournament whose narrative became stale and predictable despite some stunning football.
Nobody will tire of watching Messi confront Madrid and a draw with too many underdogs would be as bad as the endless repetition of recent campaigns, so this now feels right.
We have Apoel Nicosia, deeper into the tournament than any team from Cyprus has gone; Benfica, a grand old name returning; Marseille, punching well above their weight; four recent finalists in Barcelona (2011), Bayern Munich (2010), Chelsea (2008) and AC Milan (2007) and mighty Real Madrid.
The sole negative is that, once again, UEFA run the risk of a competing team being awarded a home tie in the final; Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena the venue this year.
Why call the location so early? Wait until the group stage draw can be made and announce it that day, having first removed the candidacy of the 32 entrants. There are enough neutral national stadiums such as those in London, Paris and Athens, plus the grounds of big clubs that have failed to make the cut.
This year, UEFA could have chosen between eight national arenas bigger than Munich, plus at least 13 club venues with a capacity of 50,000 or more and no Champions League involvement. If it was Germany's turn to host, why not the Olympic Stadium in Berlin? It was good enough for a World Cup final.
Why risk a very strong Bayern Munich team having the blessing of familiar surroundings? It is so wrong and so avoidable.
Water fool, but Richards did get one thing right
Sir Dave Richards should have stood down as chairman of the Premier League in 2007 when it transpired he had advised Everton and Manchester United how to avoid third-party interference rules in the Tim Howard transfer via a gentlemen's agreement.
That was a considerably greater affront than anything he did in Qatar.
Richards made a fool of himself with his talk of FIFA stealing football and the drinking habits that Qatar must tolerate to run a successful World Cup.
He did make one salient point, though. If Prince Ali Bin Hussein of Jordan seriously thinks that whatever kick-about may or may not have taken place in China in 500BC equates to the game we know now, the creation of rule books, the formation of leagues and the export of those principles around the world, he is just another FIFA twerp toadying to an agenda that is as bigoted and false as anything conjured by Richards.
Listening to FIFA's twaddle would send anybody off the deep end eventually.
Scotland for the Scots
Freeze the season now and explain how we get Celtic into the Football League.
Do we demote an extra team from League Two: Plymouth Argyle, for instance, a Southern League club since 1903 and founder members of Division Three in 1920?
Maybe we promote only one from the Blue Square Premier. Bad news for those in the play-off places, Wrexham (oldest professional club in Wales, first FA Cup appearance 1883), Mansfield Town (formed 1897, elected to the Football League 1931), Luton Town (founded 1885, first professional club in southern England, founder member of the Southern League 1894) and Southport (founded 1881, joined Third Division North 1921).
No place like home: Celtic's admission into the English football leagues would only harm English clubs
Maybe we just wait for Portsmouth (founded 1898, Southern League from 1899) to go skint. Either way, somebody gets shafted.
Celtic and Rangers have created this crisis in Scottish football. Do not allow them to create another here.
Just give it to Lancaster
Why is Nick Mallett's name still mentioned in connection with the England rugby job? Probably because the Rugby Football Union employed a firm of headhunters to help them appoint Martin Johnson's successor and Odgers Berndtson now have a contract to justify.
Simply pointing to Stuart Lancaster, the caretaker who picked English rugby off the floor and came perilously close to delivering a Grand Slam is not worthy of an invoice. So, ludicrously, the process continues.
Even Mallett is incredulous that Lancaster's bosses would change a winning coach who has clearly made the players happy and turned around the image and fortunes of English rugby, all in a matter of months. He doesn't know the RFU, obviously.

worth the effort. One day maybe.

No, you shouldn't feel inferior
If you don't need one, then don't get one. There nothing that says you must have your own domain. I only have one so that my email does not end with @gmail.com
At the same time though, they don't cost much (20$ a year). You can just pick one up and connect it to Google Apps, and you have you own email using Googles service with your domain instead of theirs.

Until recently, IBM's Power Platform was looked upon as being the system that hosted IBM's flavor of UNIX and proprietary operating system called IBM i. These servers often are found in medium-size businesses running ERP, CRM and financials for on-premise customers. By enabling the Power platform to run the Linux OS, IBM now has positioned Power to be the platform of choice for those already running Linux that are facing scalability issues, especially customers looking at analytics, big data or cloud computing.
Running Linux on IBM's Power hardware offers some obvious benefits, including improved processing speed and memory bandwidth, inherent security, and simpler deployment and management. But if you look beyond the impressive architecture, you'll also find an open ecosystem that has given rise to a strong, innovative community, as well as an inventory of system and network management applications that really help leverage the benefits offered by running Linux on Power.Get the Guide

The dedication ceremony will be followed by light refreshments and tours of the connector
The Breidegam Library Connector, a $2 million project funded by three donors, connects the historical 200,000 volume Krauth Memorial Library to the state of the art Brossman Center, which houses classrooms, academic, and administrative offices, and space for conferences and events used by both the seminary and the community.
The Breidegam Connector was funded by the late Berks County, Pennsylvania, businessman and philanthropist, DeLight E. Breidegam, Jr., and his wife, Helen Breidegam, who supported the project in memory of Timothy M. Breidegam and Sally Breidegam Miksiewicz, their late son and late daughter. Also supporting the project was the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf, Governor, and Frank Henry, chairman emeritus of Martz Trailways and his wife, the late Dorothea "Dottie" Henry, who were both conferred Honorary Doctors of Divinity at LTSP.
The architect and construction manager for the Breidegam Connector were Roberson Butz, Inc. and Alvin H. Butz, Inc. of Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania funding for the project came about as the result of collaborative leadership efforts from LTSP, local, state, and federal politicians and civic leaders including Governor Tom Wolf, former State Representative and now Philadelphia City Councilwoman Cherelle Parker (9th District), Councilwoman Cindy Bass (8th District), Pennsylvania Senator Art Haywood (4th District), Congressman Chaka Fattah (PA 02), Robert B. "Bob" Asher, Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors of Asher's Chocolates in Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania committeeman on the Republican National Committee, Representative Tonyelle Cook-Artis, PIDC Philadelphia CEO John Grady, and the Rev. Dr. Philip Krey, former President of LTSP.
"The Breidegams and the Henrys are longtime friends of the seminary and trace their connections to LTSP through their churches and relatives who attended the seminary. Their gifts to the seminary, the naming of the connector, and the plaque which will be on display in the connector will stand as permanent reminders of their amazing generosity and concern for the seminary" said the Rev. Dr. David J. Lose, President of LTSP.
"Likewise, our friends in government who partnered with us to build the Breidegam Connector, and create much needed jobs, have been important players in sustaining the work of LTSP, and we thank them for their efforts and support," added Dr. Lose.]]>

Before the academic year concludes, this brief "Update" will offer a summary of additional steps taken and plans for the summer as progress continues toward the unification of Gettysburg and Philadelphia seminaries.
Following unanimous votes by both boards to continue toward the goal of launching a reconfigured, unified "New Venture" the summer of 2017, informational sessions were held on both campuses. A press release communicated the boards' decisions and it has received some attention, including a follow-up report by the widely disseminated Religion News Service (RNS).
The ten-member Steering Committee met in Harrisburg on May 3. At that meeting, steps were taken that had been requested by both boards, including developing guidelines that will govern the work of a slightly larger (12-member) Transition Team, to be appointed in upcoming special meetings of the boards. That team's responsibilities will include overseeing ongoing activities by the several Work Groups that have continuing tasks; developing a presidential job description and appointing a presidential search committee; determining the name of the unified school, and recommending to the existing boards (and ultimately a unified reconfigured board) a curriculum and resulting faculty configuration for the yet-to-be-named seminary. The Steering Committee also finalized draft bylaws that will be submitted for preliminary review by the PA Department of Education, our accreditors, and the ELCA Office of the Secretary, all of whom must "sign off" before a new entity is approved.
The Steering Committee expressed appreciation upon hearing that on both campuses students have agreed to serve on a Student Advisory Panel (names listed below), which likely will convene over the summer via the internet and for its first meeting in person early in the fall. The Committee also established dates for two joint summer board meetings, as had been requested by both boards. On July 15 both boards will gather on the Gettysburg campus, and on August 19 they will come together again at Philadelphia. The Steering Committee also took note of many expressions of encouragement being received, and of the ongoing widespread concern for the well-being of students, faculty, and staff, all of whom face a measure of uncertainty during a time of transition.
The Curriculum Development and Educational Design work group will be busy over the summer, digesting the input being received in many conversations where alumni, lay and rostered leaders, and others are offering input on what should be priorities in theological education and leadership formation moving forward. On June 14, members of both faculties and representatives of other ELCA seminaries will spend a day with Dr. Daniel Aleshire, Executive Director of the Association of Theological Schools, who has a depth of experience and wisdom gleaned from the 250+ seminaries that form ATS. Faculty and staff work groups related to various elements of the curriculum will be formed and start their work over the summer as well.
A four-minute video has been prepared under the auspices of one of the work groups, to be offered at all the synod assemblies in the ELCA's Regions 7 and 8 this spring. Key seminary leaders, including board members, will host informational forums in several of the synodical assemblies.
As additional information becomes available, reports and documents will be posted on the website: newschooloftheology.org.

The Rev. Dr. Karl Krueger (MDiv 1980) returned to his alma mater, The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia (LTSP), in 1999 as its Assistant Librarian and became the fourth director of the Krauth Memorial Library in 2003. He returned holding a PhD in History from the University of Michigan and a Master's in Library Science from Drexel University. He had worked in the Rare Book Room at the University of Michigan and at the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies. His service to the church included pastoring an English/German congregation in Philadelphia and a Slovak/English congregation in Windsor, Ontario.
During his tenure at LTSP he worked with Gettysburg and Southern seminaries to create the Eastern Cluster Library, served as Faculty Secretary, and facilitated the creation of the compact storage facility in The Brossman Learning Center. It became the new home for the Lutheran Archives Center at Philadelphia and underused library resources. He has taught "Lutherans in North America," "Lutheran Confessions," "Henry Melchior Mühlenberg: Public Theologian," and "Book of Faith: Print, Politics, Public Event."
A native of Philadelphia, he also attended schools in Germany and Poland. He is a sought after preacher, workshop leader, and speaker on Henry Melchior Mühlenberg. He received a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 2007, attended Rare Book School at the University of Virginia, and served as the Treasurer of SEPTLA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Theological Library Association).
Dr. Krueger's final presentation, on May 12, 2016, is entitled, "Not for Our Eyes: Readers Talking to Themselves and Sometimes God." It will highlight the marginal notes in books that belonged to some noteworthy individuals and are housed in the Rare Book Room of the library.

"The Third World Down the Street" is a joint project between the Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod and the Seminarians Action Alert Network (S.A.A.N.) of The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia – and congregations like yours. While we are often aware of the great need of people in countries across the world, many of us don't realize that just a few miles away in the city of Philadelphia people are living in third world conditions. While the lives these neighbors of ours live may seem to be a world away from us, there are so many who are just one paycheck or medical bill away from homelessness.
Homelessness is often hidden, and does not always look like we expect. Some of the most quickly growing populations of homeless people are youth, young adults, and families. And they need our help.
The idea is simple. We are collecting large, gallon size zip lock bags with the most commonly needed items that someone who is experiencing homelessness would need for daily survival. And that's where YOU come in!
Items Needed:
Please also consider writing your favorite scripture verse in a card or a note expressing your love for the recipient. Feel free to add a gift card from places like McDonald's if you desire.
We can also use sturdy backpacks, along the lines of the average JanSport. It would be particularly helpful if you are able to collect your kits into a backpack, to aid us as we go out to distribute them!
"Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?" – Luke 25: 37-38
Christ is risen! Alleluia!
Christ is Risen indeed. Alleluia.
This is the age-old cry Christians have been making for nearly two millennia, ever since word first spread that death could not hold onto God's chosen One. To those of us who have grown up in the church, the Easter acclamation is as familiar as it is ancient.
Yet lately I have wondered whether we say it too easily and too quickly.
Have you ever noticed, for instance, that this was decidedly not the first response of Jesus' earliest followers? In fact, whatever differences in detail or theme the four evangelists present in their stories of Christ's cross and resurrection, they are uniform in their description that the news of Jesus' triumph over the grave was met initially not with shouts of acclamation and praise but rather with skepticism, doubt, and disbelief. Take Luke's account that many of us heard read yesterday at our Easter service. Not only do the disciples dismiss the witness of the women who were greeted by angels with the news of Christ's resurrection, but even after Jesus meets them in the flesh they believed he was a ghost and continued to doubt and wonder as they were simultaneously overcome by joy.
Why was it so difficult for Jesus' earliest followers – those who knew him most intimately and had heard him speak of his death and resurrection on several occasions – to believe their own eyes? Simply because death and fear were so omnipresent in their lives that they had a hard time believing God could overcome them. In short, they were too mired in the destruction that attends the fallen creation to see and grasp God's wondrous act of re-creation and renewal.
Such is also often the case, I would suggest, with us. Many will leave the joy of Easter services only to return home to headlines about terrorism, difficulties in relationships at work or home, or fear for a loved one struggling with addiction. And these omnipresent realities can overwhelm us to the point that while we confess that Christ is risen at church, we live in the world as if he had remained in the tomb.
Which is why I wonder if we utter the words of the ancient acclamation too easily. For the cry that "Christ is Risen" is not only a confession about something that happened long ago, it is also testimony to our confidence that God's love continues to transform the world, that fear is not the dominant reality in our world, and that death is no match for the abundant life Christ brings.
So in the weeks to come, pause before you join your voice to those around you to contemplate the fierce courage of believers who have confessed that God's love and life are stronger than hate, fear, or death. And then say those words with abandon, trusting that God continues to create light from darkness and breathe life where death once dominated.
But don't stop only at church. When you watch fearsome headlines, say those words again. And when you struggle with a relationship or worry about a loved one, repeat them silently to yourself. These words were not meant to adorn our liturgy but to transform our lives. For Easter not only marks Jesus' triumph over the grave but also invites us to enter into an entirely new reality where God's grace makes all things possible, where the future is forever open, and where life and light promise to illumine even the darkest of roads.
For Christ is risen, alleluia!
Christ is risen indeed. Alleluia and thanks be to God.
Yours in Christ and with gratitude for your support of LTSP and ministry in the world,
David Lose, President
"A goal as large as it is important"
It's a goal as large as it is important: full tuition scholarships for all LTSP students.
We have received an overwhelmingly positive response from all quarters of the church to this initiative thus far, as people recognize the need to provide much more support to our students. Along with the positive comments, I have also heard several questions that I will try to address.
Finding seminary where you are
If you asked me to give you a tour of the seminary I attended, I'd bring you to the Starbucks on Delaware Avenue in Buffalo, New York. I'd show you the large black table where I would spread my theology textbooks and Greek New Testament book. I'd point out the power outlet that played such an essential role in my study sessions. I'd introduce you to George and Peggy, my non-matriculating, unintentional classmates. And I'd tell you that if you really wanted to understand my full seminary experience then you should order a small bowl of oatmeal and a grande blonde roast.

God Still Moves Stones
Wayne E. Croft, Sr., Jeremiah A. Wright Associate Professor of Homiletics and Liturgics in African American Studies, shares a reflection for the season: Ever since the time of Jesus critics like pre-Christian Albert Henry Ross have been attempting to disprove Jesus' resurrection. It has been documented that once Jesus was entombed Jewish authorities took extraordinary measures to ensure that Christ's body could not be moved or stolen. They were well aware of his prediction that he would rise from the dead on the third day, and as far as they were concerned this could only happen if the disciples stole his body.

We have received an overwhelmingly positive response from all quarters of the church to this initiative thus far, as people recognize the need to provide much more support to our students. Along with the positive comments, I have also heard several questions that I will try to address here.
Some folks, for instance, have asked me "why" we are doing this. The simple answer is because too many students are bringing large amounts of undergraduate loans and cannot afford to add significantly to their debt for seminary. When they do, it makes it difficult for them to serve where the church needs them.
After providing that answer, I ask a question in return: What is the total cost of attendance for graduates from West Point or the Naval Academy? The answer, of course, is nothing, because the graduates of those schools will pay back their education through at least five years of service to their country. Similarly, our students will also repay the gift of their education through a lifetime of service to the church. The goal is to create a more cooperative approach to theological education where students don't simply pay for their degrees but instead receive their training as a gift of the church they will be serving. And congregations don't merely sponsor "their" student but are investing in the future leadership of the whole church.
Second, I am often asked for more detail about exactly "what" we are doing. In short, and along with our partners at LTSG, we have decided to make it possible for all students to come through seminary tuition free. We're approaching this in two ways. First, all ELCA students who are studying full-time and living in-residence and have been entranced by their Synod for rostered ministry are eligible for full tuition scholarships. Second, all part-time, commuting, and distance ELCA students and all students from other traditions will be eligible for scholarships from LTSP that will match support from sponsoring congregations and church bodies to 100 percent. Typically, LTSP has offered part-time students 25 percent aid. We will guarantee that level of aid and be willing to double it to match the gifts of sponsoring congregations and church bodies, allowing all students to come through LTSP tuition free.
The third question I am asked is "how" we can do this. We can make this bold and significant move because of several factors:
The tremendous generosity of the whole church in sponsoring students through scholarship programs such as the ELCA Fund for Leaders and various Synodical scholarships like the Huneke Fund for Leaders of the Metropolitan New York Synod. These funds are all rooted in the vision and generosity of ELCA members committed to developing the future leaders of the church.
The tremendous generosity of LTSP supporters. After several years of downward trends, the Leadership Fund of LTSP that offers scholarships to students has moved slightly upwards this year. In addition, one family, inspired by our move to join our strengths to LTSG and wanting to encourage others to give generously, has recently made a gift of $200,000 and offered a 2:1 match up to $100,000 to increase the Leadership Fund by $300,000 this year.
We are making this level of aid the "fixed commitment" of the new venture in theological education we are sponsoring with LTSG. Currently, nearly 90 percent of each year's budget is committed to the fixed costs of personnel and facilities. The result is that financial aid comes from what is left over and, year after year, we give more than we can afford and less than students need. In the budget for the reconfigured school, this level of aid is the fixed commitment and we will build a staff and facility that we can afford once we have put students first.
Even with these commitments, we will only be able to sustain this level of aid if we have the support of our constituents and the whole church. Your gifts to LTSP, to the ELCA Fund for Leaders, to Synodical scholarships all help to make this a reality. We are in every way possible partners in this venture to educate and form the church's next generation of leaders in a way that makes it possible for them to serve the church wherever the church needs them.
Without a doubt, this is a bold goal, one as large as it is important. As people who worship the God who created light from darkness and raised Jesus from the dead, I think this is just the kind of goal we should have before us.
Yours in Christ,
If you asked me to give you a tour of the seminary I attended, I'd bring you to the Starbucks on Delaware Avenue in Buffalo, New York. I'd show you the large black table where I would spread my theology textbooks and Greek New Testament book. I'd point out the power outlet that played such an essential role in my study sessions. I'd introduce you to George and Peggy, my non-matriculating, unintentional classmates. And I'd tell you that if you really wanted to understand my full seminary experience then you should order a small bowl of oatmeal and a grande blonde roast.
I consider this Starbucks in the north end of Buffalo my seminary because I completed my Master of Divinity through a distributed learning (DL) program. Sometimes when I share this information I am met with suspicious glances from clergy who took a more traditional and— in their minds — better route. But the truth is, I wouldn't trade my seminary experience for anything. In a lot of ways, I think I was better formed for ministry through my "Starbucks classes" then if I had just gone to a campus for four years.
I'll admit I didn't choose to enroll in a DL program because I thought it would be the best educational experience. I pursued a DL MDiv because it was my only choice. I was serving as the pastor of Parkside Lutheran Church in Buffalo, New York. My wife was pregnant with our first child in the midst of completing her master's degree at the University at Buffalo. And the nearest Lutheran seminary was five hours away. My candidacy committee made it quite clear that I needed to complete a master's degree in theological studies. Furthermore, I knew that I needed this degree in order to better serve the people of Parkside and in order to better serve the church as a whole.
So, I worked out the details and began taking online classes through Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque, Iowa. I quickly became a regular at the Starbucks near my house as I spent my mornings pouring over theological texts and biblical commentaries while sipping my blonde roast. While eating my small bowl of oatmeal, I'd login to the online forum, type out my thoughts, and then read the posts from my classmates in Illinois and Wisconsin and Michigan.
And you know what happened? I learned all this material really well. Even though my classroom was a Starbucks and my classmates weren't even in the same state, the process of reading and posting and responding to my classmates forced me to learn the material in a way that I never would have in a traditional classroom. The DL program taught me how to think theologically and how to carefully express my thoughts in writing. And, even more importantly, the DL program allowed me to really learn the art of translating my theological musings into my everyday life. When your seminary classroom is a Starbucks, you can't help but learn to see the Gospel in your day to day interactions.
As an institution committed to Public Theology, the thought of students studying theology from within their own context just makes sense. And so I'm very excited about the launch of this new educational pathway. I'm excited for the ways the DL MDiv program will allow students who never thought it possible the chance to pursue their call. I'm excited to see students discover all the ways the DL program isn't just convenient but is actually a dynamic way of learning. And I'm excited to hear stories from students as they discover and establish their own "Starbucks classrooms."
