Hope. It's different than optimism.
That may seem like a distinction without much of a difference, but on that score I beg to disagree. Optimism, you see, is the belief that things will always get better, circumstances will naturally improve, present challenges will eventually pass, and so are not to be worried about.

That may seem like a distinction without much of a difference, but on that score I beg to disagree. Optimism, you see, is the belief that things will always get better, circumstances will naturally improve, present challenges will eventually pass, and so are not to be worried about.
Hope, however, is rather different. Hope asserts that no matter what may come, no matter how dark or difficult things may get, yet God's word and promise will prevail. More importantly, the hope to which we bear witness is born not of our own accomplishments, abilities, or prospects, but rather is founded upon the activity of God in Jesus Christ, and particularly God's activity hidden in the cross and resurrection.
When you look around today, there seems little reason to be optimistic. Most of our congregations are declining. Seminary enrollment across the board is down. Our emerging generation seems increasingly disinclined to make church involvement a priority.
And that's only in the church! Matters in our country and world are no better and, arguably, much worse. We are in the midst of a hugely negative presidential campaign. Racial tension simmers in many of our cities. Violence seems rampant and injustice unchecked. And there have never been more refugees at any previous point in history.
No, there is very little that would make any of us optimistic. Which is why hope is so important. We come together on Sundays to be inspired by the Gospel, to see friends and community members we value, to lift our voices in thanksgiving and in prayers of supplication. And all of this is good. But we also come to church on Sundays to be rooted once again in the source of our hope so that we may leave equipped to share that hope with people and a world in tremendous need of hope and courage.
Consider the words of the Apostle Paul to his stubborn, unruly, and often quarrelsome congregation in Corinth:
If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have died in Christ have perished. If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died. (I Corinthians 15:17-20).
Paul grounds his hope — both in this world and the next — not on the circumstances surrounding him or his congregation, and not on his own abilities or that of his colleagues, but rather on the promise that God raised Jesus from the dead. And because God raised Jesus from the dead, death does not have the last world, the future is forever open, and all things are possible. And this is the core of our hope.
Because God raised Jesus from the dead, therefore we will continue to call on our elected officials to enact policies that protect the vulnerable and promote justice. Because God raised Jesus from the dead, we will not absent ourselves from elections, even when they turn negative. Because God raised Jesus from the dead, we can open our hearts and homes to people in need. Because God raised Jesus from the dead, we can remind each other that violence solves nothing and that the only answer to hate is not more hate but love. Because God raised Jesus from the dead, even when there is little reason for optimism, we remain hopeful and invite others to share in our hope for our communities, nation, and world, a hope rooted in God's steadfast promise to work for the good in all things.
At LTSP we are training leaders to nurture and lead communities of hope. Whether serving in congregations, camps, social ministry organizations, or other communities, our graduates are not only grounded in the hope of the Gospel but work to create communities where others hear this Word of hope, are encouraged by it, and are equipped to take it with them into the world. It is a privilege to do this work, work that, in my opinion, has never been more important. Thank you for your support of the mission and ministry of LTSP to graduate leaders fashioning communities of hope for a world that has never needed hope more.
Yours in Christ,
The Rev. Dr. David J. Lose is President of The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia

This past June, The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia's the Rev. Dr. Katie Day and the Rev. Dr. Storm Swain traveled to "Mother Emanuel" AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina, to attend events commemorating the Charleston Massacre, where nine people were shot and killed at Bible Study while praying — the Rev. Clementa Pinckney, Tywanza Sanders, the Rev. Sharonda Singleton, Cynthia Hurd, the Rev. DePayne Middleton-Doctor, Ethel Lance, Susie Jackson, Myra Thompson, and the Rev. Daniel Simmons, Sr. The following are Prof. Day's reflections on the events marking the tragedy.
Walking through what seemed like a typical church fellowship room underneath the sanctuary, Prof. Swain and I knew we were walking on holy ground. It was in this space in "Mother" Emanuel A.M.E. Church in Charleston, South Carolina, exactly one year ago at this very hour that a disturbed young man unleashed his racist anger on the Bible study group that had welcomed this stranger in their midst. After sitting with the members for an hour, Dylann Roof opened fire when the group bowed their heads in prayer at 9:05 pm on June 17, 2015. Within seconds, nine people were killed, including the pastor, the Rev. Clementa Pinckney. Miraculously, there were five survivors.
That night — June 17, 2016, just after 9:00 pm, the fellowship hall was a typical church gathering place and thoroughfare. There was regular traffic in and out of bathrooms, two offices, and around the neat white tables used for small group discussions and members sharing "repast" after services. Although there was a loving photo of the "Emanuel Nine" and a few other subtle tributes, this space did not feel like a morgue, nor was it a shrine. This was a place of life and faith and joy.
We had driven down for the weekend of commemorative events in the church and throughout the City of Charleston; two days out of twelve — remembering the victims, comforting grieving families, supporting the survivors, celebrating the presence of God in it all, and peeling off the layers of deeper meanings of trauma and how to move into the future. On Friday there had been three services — an interfaith service in another church, a memorial in a college auditorium, and an evening of song and reflection at Mother Emanuel, which we attended. On Saturday morning there was a large breakfast sponsored by the two state senators (one of whom had taken the Rev. Clementa Pinckney's seat in the legislature). Here, members of the victims' families spoke with poignant eloquence about those whose lives and deaths were still fresh. The whole event was punctuated by the rousing and contagious selections by a wonderful choir. The crowd spilled out into the central square, joined by others and formed a march. Together we moved to the front of Mother Emanuel where the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Betty Deas Clark, and Mayor John Tecklenburg again addressed the crowd and led a moment of silence as the families of the victims, all dressed in white, released nine, and then five more, doves. The march then processed to the Charleston Galliard Center where gospel singer Shirley Caesar joined with the multiracial community choir and a liturgical dance team of angelic girls in performing a moving original composition, "Emanuel." Trees for each of the victims and survivors were dedicated in this civic space. The Rev. Dr. Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr., and Director of the Atlanta-based Center in his name, addressed the crowd. She spoke about losing both her father to gun violence when she was very young and then at age 11 having her grandmother gunned down during a church service. Her challenge was to work for changes in gun laws.
Throughout the events, we listened carefully not just to public speech but engaged in conversations with church members and citizens of Charleston. There are so many sound bites from a year ago that have been seared in the national consciousness: family members facing the shooter two days later, offering forgiveness; President Obama delivering the eulogy at the Rev. Pinckney's funeral and breaking into "Amazing Grace"; the Republican Governor, Nikki Haley, leading the effort to bring down the Confederate flag over the State House. But it is in this congregation and this city where the hard work of grief and transformation has been a daily reality for the past year. A recurring theme expressed in testimonies, speeches, and conversations, by both religious and political leaders, whether church members or not, was "June 17, 2015 changed me, changed us." But how?
Immediately after the shootings, a representative of the gun lobby had stated that if the Rev. Pinckney had been armed, and allowed his members to carry guns, this massacre might have been prevented. This statement was wrong on so many levels, but we did wonder whether, in fact, Mother Emanuel had felt the need to arm themselves, an understandable response to such violence and vulnerability. In entering the church, we passed by several police officers standing on the street but there were no armed guards in the church, no purse checks or metal detectors. In fact, there were no guns in sight — but there were a lot more security cameras. The fellowship hall now had a screen relaying input from 12 surveillance cameras on the premises that had certainly not been there before. The church had been smart and careful to enhance safety, but clearly they did not believe their security would come from weapons. They had died by the sword/guns, but they would not live by them.
The anniversary observances were held against the backdrop of the massacre in Orlando the weekend before, which was often mentioned. Street performers in the park began their break dance show with a moment of silence for those killed in the gay nightclub in Florida. The Rev. Dr. Clark told the congregation on Friday evening she had been invited to go to the White House in the preceding week, to be honored by Michelle Obama. Instead, she traveled to Orlando to be present with those grieving the loss of the 49 young victims. She told the church that as she prayed with and hugged people there, "I didn't see gender. I didn't see ethnicity. I didn't see sexual orientation. I saw people. People who were suffering and people whom God loves." Their suffering had not created a cocoon, but had enabled them to cross social barriers to embrace others who were suffering.
One speaker, a magazine editor from Chicago, observed that "trauma can lead people to become more shallow and brittle, or it can make them deeper. I have not seen or heard anything here that is shallow…" We certainly heard this depth in many ways, but especially as members of Mother Emanuel talked about forgiveness. This was not a simple, easy, cheap-grace forgiveness extended to the one who had murdered their beloved pastor, mother, sister, son, grandmother, friend. From the members of Mother Emanuel we heard that forgiveness was hard work, a daily struggle to love their enemy. But finally, they believed, their individual transformation was related to the transformation God seeks for the world.
Weariness was apparent. Even so, there was a depth of resolve we see too rarely in our society as there were calls for courageous witness and action to prevent gun violence. Those who had lost so much called for substantial changes in gun laws to ban assault weapons, limit the capacity of ammunition clips or magazines, and to expand background checks for all gun purchases. Trauma can bring depth…but also clarity and commitment.
The commemoration continued into worship on Sunday morning which also focused on Father's Day. Three pews of African American men representing Pastor Pinckney's fraternity brought a significant financial gift in honor of the victims. The Mayor played piano and sang a soulful rendition of "Amazing Grace" to a smiling and somewhat surprised congregation. Dr. Clark preached in a traditional Black preaching style a pastoral sermon about Christ's presence in the midst of all our struggles from loss of job or home to the threat of violence. It was church being church. And it was a privilege to be there.

The Augustana Museum of the Augustana Institute at the Lutheran Archives Center was dedicated on Saturday, June 25, 2016. The museum is located in The Brossman Center. The dedication included a short service with Officiant the Rt. Rev. Dr. Jonas Jonson, Bishop Emeritus, Strängnäs stift Church of Sweden, a Gospel reading by the Rev. Dr. L. George Detweiler, Treasurer, Lutheran Archives Center, along with a hymn verse and the Benediction in Swedish to honor the Augustana pioneers and their more than 200 congregations and institutions in the Northeast. The dedication was part of the events of the Augustana Heritage Valedictory celebration on Midsummer Day, June 25.
Retired pastor from North Carolina the Rev. G. Duane (Dewey) Johnson presented two wooden signs for the museum. His expertise reflects the ability of many Swedish immigrants to work with wood. He was born and raised in Jamestown, New York, ordained in 1958, and served congregations in Texas.
The stop at the new Augustana Museum was part of a tour that took all the celebration participants to Gloria Dei Old Swedes Church and the American Swedish Historical Museum in addition to the seminary. Since the group had to be divided, only some of the attendees to the celebration were able to participate in the dedication by Bishop Jonson.
View a slide show of the dedication event and the museum:
You can view the photo gallery here.
The Augustana Museum is part of the Augustana Institute, which grew out of a 2009 Swedish Festival at First Lutheran Church in Brockton, MA, when a campaign was launched to establish an "Augustana Room" at the Lutheran Seminary in Philadelphia. Growing interest and support for the Augustana tradition in the East has now matured into an Augustana Institute and Museum. The museum was created to exhibit materials from the archives of Upsala College, some 80 archival boxes of records from the Augustana New York and New England Conferences, and holdings of the Swedish Colonial Society and its world-renowned collections of genealogical materials related to the first Swedish and Finnish settlers in the 17th Century Delaware Valley. As an affiliated organization of the Lutheran Archives Center it manages an extensive and growing archives, a museum displaying significant items from Augustana congregations, personalities, institutions, and authors. It has sponsored lectures and forums and hopes to encourage exchanges of Swedish and American pastors and students.
Following the dedication, admission to the Augustana Museum is by appointment only. For more information about the Institute or how to visit us, contact The Rev. Dr. Kim-Eric Williams, Curator of The Augustana Institute at Lutheran Archives Center, 7301 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19119-1794 or the Archives website, www.lacphila.org.

The Rev. Taryn Montgomery, pastor of Bread of Life Lutheran Church, Minot, North Dakota, was presented with the ELCA's prestigious 2015 Dr. Richard Lee Peterman Good Steward Award, established in 1984 by the Lutheran Laity Movement for Stewardship. From the story by Minot NBC affiliate KMOT-TV:
"She moved her congregation from a mentality of scarcity to a mentality of abundance. During that time the congregation of giving went up 2,000 percent. So, that's an extreme example of someone who has stewardship education and through connecting the congregation with the senate and the ELCA, she really has done some marvelous things around Stewardship," said Neil Bullock, project coordinator of ELCA.
"Pastor Taryn says she has not yet decided what she is going to do with the $500 award."
Pr. Montgomery's husband is the Rev. Christoph Schmidt, also a member of the class of 2011.

The Rev. Dr. David D. Grafton, Associate Professor of Islamic Studies and Christian-Muslim Relations and Vice President for Planning, Assessment, and Administration at The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia, has accepted a position as the Professor of Islamic Studies and Christian-Muslim Relations at Hartford Seminary, in Hartford, Connecticut, and will join the faculty of the seminary's MacDonald Center for Islamic Studies and Christian-Muslim Relations beginning August 1, 2016.
The LTSP seminary community came together at a luncheon on July 11, to give thanks to God for Dr. Grafton's presence at LTSP the past nine years, and to wish him all the best in his new position. Both President David Lose and Dean Jayakiran Sebastian offered brief reflections and well wishes, and then a gift of a handmade glass jar was presented to Dr. Grafton by the Rev. Heidi Rodrick-Schnaath, LTSP's Director of Student Services; Director, Abundant Life Student Advising Center; Title IX Coordinator. The jar was filled with words from the community that speak to the ways God's light has been made visible to LTSP through Dr. Grafton.
Hartford Seminary has been an important seminary in inter-faith theological education, training Christians and Muslims from around the world, and the MacDonald Center is the oldest center of its type in North America. Dr. Grafton said, "Although I am excited about this opportunity, it is bittersweet for me. It means that I will need to leave a cohort of colleagues that I cherish, students who are top notch and doing exciting things, and an institution that is in the midst of significant changes." Dr. Grafton also stated, "Over the years my wife Karla and I have cultivated significant relationships with colleagues, had students in our home, enjoyed the opportunity to work with our international students, and shared important moments of our family's life with friends here."
Agnes Doctor (Grant) Bornemann, 93, passed away peacefully at home in Vermont on June 14, 2016. She was the wife of The Rev. Dr. Robert E. Bornemann, professor of Hebrew and Old Testament for 41 years at The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia (LTSP), and director of the seminary choir from 1955 to 1990, who died in 2009.
Mrs. Bornemann wrote Sunday School curricula for Augsburg-Fortress Press for several years. She also wrote several children's books inspired by the children she taught in the Get Set Program for preschoolers in Philadelphia. After teaching at Get Set, she was the lead teacher for the therapeutic nursery classroom at the Children's Crisis Treatment Center (originally known as the Center for Early Childhood Services) in Philadelphia. She taught there for 25 years before retiring.
Mrs. Bornemann shared her husband's love for music and the arts, including choral music and opera, and they were often seen taking the Chestnut Hill local train from their Mt. Airy home on excursions to performances in Philadelphia and New York. She was an avid reader and loved to hike in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and did so for many years. She enjoyed the beauty of the Vermont countryside and mountains where she vacationed and later lived.
Survivors include her children, John Bornemann and wife Collette; Annamary Anderson; Elizabeth Kozakowski and husband Stanley; and Katherine Ayers and husband Alan; grandchildren Aretha Ayers, John Ayers and wife Sierra, Eric Bornemann and wife Erica, Alec Bornemann, Katherine Foster and husband Jesse, Michael Kozakowski, Andrew Kozakowski and wife Whitney, and Lisa McCoog and husband Bill; and great-grandchildren Bentley, Madalena, Avan and Ulyana Ayers, Sawyer and Fischer Bornemann, Otto Foster, and Christopher and Lukas Kozakowski.
The Rev. Dr. Robert Robinson, Anna Burkhalter Professor, Old Testament and Hebrew at LTSP, remembers:
"Agnes Bornemann was a woman of great kindness and great strength. Her bearing mirrored her character, tall and erect with a wonderful smile on her face, occasionally a bit quizzical but always a smile. She and Bob were the perfect pair. Bob was a man of immense enthusiasms and uncounted interests. Agnes provided the structure for the family, good common sense and steady, willing support. Never a begrudging participant, she was companion, organizer, loving partner. She was Bob's beloved 'Pooh.' They were quite a team. Agnes had a significant career of her own, serving children at the Children's Crisis Treatment Center. The name signals the importance of the work but does not begin to give a sense of Agnes' commitment and passion for those children. She was equally passionate about her own children and provided the loving home that nurtured each of them. She was proud of the seminary and of the contribution she and Bob had made to its noble tradition. Agnes will be remembered with great affection by all of us privileged to know her. God has surely welcomed a true saint."
Mrs. Bornemann had donated Dr. Bornemann's harpsichord to the seminary, along with a gift from the family for its restoration, and also was a supporter of the annual Advent Vespers. She was able to attend the April 28, 2015 dedication of the harpsichord at Easter Vespers, which fell on Mrs. Bornemann's ninety-second birthday.
A memorial service was held Saturday, June 18, at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Jericho, Vermont.]]>
Ministry in the twenty-first century presents unique challenges and fresh opportunities for the church. At the forefront of these changes are questions about stewardship, mission, and the ever-evolving world of social media and technology. What does stewardship mean and look like in the midst of our present realities? How can we leverage technology and new media as a means of grace and platforms to bear witness to the good news of Jesus Christ? How can the mission of our churches be strengthened and empowered by new models of stewardship and community formation?

Grundig Freeview HD Set Top Box
Grundig Freeview High Definition Set Top Box review: A digital TV set-top box with a simple menu and good program guide
- Quick operation
- Intuitive menu layout and program guide
- A little expensive considering its basic features and lack of hard drive
Bottom Line
The Grundig Freeview High Definition Set Top Box is a simple product; it's a digital TV receiver with Freeview's excellent electronic program guide. We think it's a little expensive at its recommended retail price considering the lack of any recording ability, but if you can find it discounted it would make a great way to future-proof an old analog television.
Price$ 159.00 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 3 stores)
- 2 x F-Type 2 Way Splitter Combiner TV Virgin Ca... 2.56
- HD Beauty Balm in Metallic Silver 38.00
- 2x4 Digital Distribution Amplifer with 4 Outp... 120.95
The Grundig Freeview High Definition Set Top Box works quickly and is easy to use even for digital TV newcomers. It's simple and doesn't have any recording abilities since there's no USB host port or internal hard drive, so we think it's a little expensive. However, it's a foolproof way to upgrade your old TV to receive digital television now and in the future.
Grundig Freeview HD set-top box: Design and setup
The Grundig Freeview High Definition Set Top Box is very basic — on its front, you'll find a power button and that's it. All channel-changing and menu-surfing must be done with the bundled remote control, so if you lose it you're in trouble.
Around the back of the set-top box are the all-important audio and video outputs. We used HDMI for our setup, but there's also component video and composite, as well as coaxial digital audio for connecting a home theatre system. The Ethernet network port and USB are used for updating the set-top box's software.
Setting up the Grundig Freeview High Definition Set Top Box was a breeze: After plugging in the power, the antenna connector, and a video output to your TV, then you're ready to go. The initial on-screen setup only took a few minutes, with a channel scan that found all our Sydney metropolitan stations in under two minutes.
There is no internal hard drive in the set-top box, so there's no way to record the show you're watching. We would have liked to see the option to plug in a USB flash drive and record to it, but this is a feature usually restricted to more expensive products. The Freeview electronic program guide is excellent — it's clearly laid out and provides plenty of info on the program you're watching.
Grundig Freeview HD set-top box: Performance
In our tests — using the set top box over a couple of days, changing channels, viewing the guide, setting reminders and changing menu settings — we never experienced any slow-down or pauses of more than two seconds. The set-top box changes channels quickly, generally taking under a second to switch.
The Freeview over-the-air guide data is pulled in almost instantly after a channel is selected, with a full seven days' data for all the channels we looked at. You can set reminders for when a show is starting using the guide — we ran through and set a couple of days' worth of reminders with no problems, with reminders occurring in line with the guide's approximation of program start times.
Grundig Freeview HD set-top box: Conclusion
Grundig's Freeview High Definition Set Top Box works just as you'd expect — it's simple to operate and its small range of features are easy to understand and control. The lack of a hard drive for recording makes it a bit expensive for its basic feature-set — we'd suggest that if you can find it on sale, it would be a good purchase to reinvigorate an old analog TV.

The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Analyst expects iPod sales of 14-15 million units this quarter
iPod unit data from NPD for the month of October points to iPod sales of 14-15 million units for the current holiday quarter, according Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster. "While it is way too early to make a call on December quarter iPod results, we have analyzed the first month of NPD data (October) for the quarter and found that it suggests iPod units of 14-15 million," Munster said in a research note today. "When the second month of data is released, our analysis will likely lead to a slightly different iPod unit figure than what our analysis suggests based on the first month of data. Our current estimate is 14.7 million iPods in the quarter." The analyst also said that the new second-generation iPod shuffle could have an impact on iPod numbers. "It is likely that the impact of the iPod shuffle, which shipped on 11/3, will have a material impact on the November and December NPD data and our current expectations for the quarter could prove to be low," Munster said.

Apple said twenty million for this quarter. Why does this analyst again reckon he knows better than Apple ?
Just before the last quarter's financial results announcement, the same analysts were telling everybody that iPod shipments wouldn't meet Apple's previous predictions. When the real results came out, they were ahead of Apple's estimates.
How stupid do you have to be to be influenced by an analyst who consistently gets it wrong ?
Apart from any other consideration, we are just entering the holiday buying season. Have you all bought your presents ? No - me neither. So I reckon that if the October figures point to sales of 14-15 million for the quarter, then twenty million might be a low estimate.
Posted by AlanAudio on November 16, 2006 at 11:55 AM (CST)
Apple never said they would sell 20 million this quarter. That was another analyst from a different firm. Apple never projects how many iPods they expect to sell.

Urban Experience
Create Denver Week is growing by leaps and bounds: What started out several years ago as a folksy expo for creatives has turned into a full-fledged urban-art experience, casting a grown-up light on homegrown arts and culture. Not that the Create Denver Expo that started it all has gone away -- this year's event (which takes place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday) has grown, too, so much that it's moved to more spacious lodgings in the Colorado Convention Center. For an affordable $10 fee, artists and creative business owners of every stripe can sample more than twenty workshops or meet with eighty exhibitors.
But if you're just seeking art adventures, the rest of the week will be a boon for you. "Everybody is so excited about it," says Arts & Venues Denver spokeswoman Kristin Rust. "We have so many new people involved this year."
Create Denver Week begins tonight at 6 p.m. at Battery 621, 621 Kalamath Street, with "Ode to Denver," a kinetic installation by local filmmakers, a melange of live music ranging from Men in Burka to the Montbello High School drumline and other experiential side trips. And that's just the beginning. Tomorrow night's Urban Encounters follows a yellow brick road of events through downtown Denver, beginning at 6 p.m.: Stops include the Beta SideShop at 1600 Glenarm Street, where you can window-shop for locally designed goods using QR codes and your smartphone; interactive environments, interactive gaming followed by SightLine video works on display on the giant LED screen at 14th and Champa streets; and flash karaoke and visuals with Magic Cyclops, Karla Rodriguez and VJ CacheFlowe.
Get up-to-date info for Create Denver Week or register for the expo at www.denvergov.org/createdenver or download the interactive Create Denver app for the latest information.

Five Retail eCommerce Trends To Watch In 2011
January 31, 2011
Why Read This Report
2010 marked a year of significant changes in the Internet landscape (primarily with the growth of social networks and mobile devices); these changes forced retail executives to think hard about the implications for their web businesses. 2011 will be marked by an even more disciplined approach toward multichannel retailing, investments in mobile and tablet presences, and scaled-back expectations for the role of social networks in retail. Retailers will also find opportunities in launching marketplaces (similar to Amazon.com's) and in investing in emerging tactics such as conversion marketing.

Recent South Side reviews
"This studio fit our needs perfectly, and was in a fabulous location right on the beach in Bolongo Bay. The patio overlooks the outdoor seating area for Mim's Restaurant (a must-do for their Thursday night shrimp feast), which is lovely at night with all the lights and the wonderful water beyond. We were lucky enough to have a full moon during part of our stay, which was spectacular. Our only "complaint," which probably has more to do with the island itself than the condo, is that the water pressure and temperature in the shower were a little unpredictable. Consequently, our showers were much quicker than at home (which is probably a good thing)! But that's a small price to pay for an otherwise excellent stay! The owner was great and she really put a lot of thought into providing amenities and little extras for her guests. Everything from beach chairs, umbrellas, noodles and boogie boards to mini toiletries like shampoo, conditioner and lotion. Thank you!"Guest: Lisa W. Date of Stay: April 2016 Review Submitted: May 5, 2016View listing
"We have rented lovely villas in some of the most beautiful places, but our group agreed hands down that Southwind on St. Thomas tops the list. The setting can't be beat, in an upscale gated mahogany forest, with a vista to die for! The villa offers every amenity imaginable, including a huge heated pool, a modern kitchen and updated bathrooms, a large barbecue grill, and a veranda that we never wanted to leave. Southwind is very tastefully furnished with the comforts of the guests in mind. We never rented a villa so well stocked with staples, and so beautifully maintained. The property is landscaped with exotic tropical flora with dramatic lighting at night. We spent several evenings dining on the candle lit veranda overlooking the beautiful harbor of Charlotte Amalie. There were several lovely restaurants within walking distance and the beaches were a short drive. Each day we enjoyed sitting on the porch or around the pool, watching the cruise ships come and go, the seaplane taking off and landing, and on one occasion a whale and her calves breaching just beyond the harbor! It was an ever changing scene that we never tired of watching. Debbie, the property manager, met us at the airport and was so accommodating. She was there to answer all of our questions and to make sure we enjoyed our stay. If you have a group of friends or are a family looking for the perfect place to get away from it all, you couldn't pick a better place than Southwind. We look forward to returning there again."Guest: Barbara M. Date of Stay: February 2016 Review Submitted: March 19, 2016View listing
"We rented this condo for Memorial Day weekend for a friend's wedding. The wedding was at the Bolongo Bay Resort, which is only about a hundred yards away. This place was really amazing. Very nice bedrooms, with obviously newer bathrooms. We had some friends staying in other condos close by that were definitely not as nice as this one. We had a great time in this incredibly beautiful place. Thank you so much Nikki!"Guest: Robert L. Date of Stay: May 2016 Review Submitted: June 2, 2016View listing
"We booked this Marriott Vacation Club Resort through Vacation Candy. This is the best way to go to a Marriott Vacation Club. You just book the resort you want , when you want it. You are not locked into any of the Marriott Vacation Club point plans or yearly timeshare fees. ( How many points do they sell anyway? --The more "points they sell, the more people competing for the premium properties during key vacation times!) This is a beautiful resort in a beautiful location. Would highly recommend it! PS There are very few 3 bedroom units on this property. This means you may get one with a less than perfect view. Book a two bedroom unit if you can to increase your odds of getting one with a fantastic view. They will absolutely not change your unit once you arrive!) I have been here 4 times and my kids and family love it!"Guest: d Date of Stay: March 2016 Review Submitted: April 29, 2016View listing

The Masterminds Behind Uber And Foursquare Are Teaming Up On A New Startup Venture
Published 9:31 am, Friday, May 23, 2014
Garrett Camp, co-founder of Uber and StumbleUpon, is partnering up with Foursquare's co-founder, Naveen Selvadurai on a new venture.
The new venture is called Expa, and it's a startup lab that will create and incubate new companies until they gain traction. It's similar to the Twitter co-founders' Obvious Corp and Max Levchin's HVF, according to TechCrunch's Ryan Lawler. In February, Lawler reported that Camp was raising $75 million to get Expa off the ground.
Camp is the mastermind behind Uber. It was his idea to build a black car service for the elite, and he hacked together the first prototype of the app with some of his graduate school friends. Travis Kalanick, Uber's CEO, was an advisor who became the startup's second CEO, following Ryan Graves. Camp was also Uber's initial seed investor before firms like First Round Capital ever put in money. Prior to co-founding Uber, Camp created Stumble Upon and sold it to eBay for $75 million.

Selvadurai co-founded Foursquare with Dennis Crowley, but was forced out of the company in 2012. Since then, he's been trying to figure out what's next. He recently announced he'd be joining Camp as Expa's east coast partner.
Here's his blog post announcing his new role at Expa:
I am excited to announce that I am joining Garrett and Expa as a partner based in New York City. Expa is a startup studio that works with founders to develop and launch new companies. We have a few things in the works already at Expa HQ in SoMa. I will be helping on all these existing projects. And soon, I will launch some new products based in SoHo. We plan to work on just a few companies at a time, with our focus directed at areas we love and in which we have deep experience: mobile, platforms and marketplaces.
I spent much of the last year tinkering, reading and learning as much as I could from others. In all these explorations and sketches, one desire stood out: I want to create things that are good for the web. I want to leave the internet in a better place than I found it. With this new model in Expa and with a great team behind us, I hope to bring a lot of these ideas to life.
We're always looking for great engineers, designers and product minds to come join us. I'd love to work with you on our new projects both here in New York as well as in San Francisco, so please get in touch at email@example.com.

A series of changes to the National-led Government's Cabinet announced by Prime Minister John Key yesterday contained a few surprises, Whanganui MP Chester Borrows says.
Mr Borrows, who keeps his portfolios of minister for Courts, associate minister for Justice and associate minister for Social Development and remains a minister outside of the Cabinet, said he had not foreseen the sweeping changes.
"I guess no-one really expected these moves to be so radical and if it was to happen it would be closer to the election," Mr Borrows said.
He said Mr Key had always flagged the need for new blood and fresh faces and tended to assign portfolios according to a minister's knowledge and expertise.
Mr Borrows was not disappointed he had received no extra responsibility.
"I feel that my Cabinet responsibilities suit me right down to the ground, so I'm very happy.
"I think any MP would like to have more responsibility and to work at as higher level as possible."
He believed Taranaki's three MPs served their electorates well.
"In an ideal world it shouldn't matter where ministers come from and the challenge for an member of parliament is to voice the concerns of their electorate as loudly as possible."
New Plymouth MP Jonathan Young said the newly promoted ministers were very capable and would provide fresh faces with new ideas and energy.
"I was not expecting anything nor am I disappointed," Mr Young, who chairs the commerce committee, said.
"I'm very pleased for my colleagues and I'm very committed to the work that I do in Parliament."
Mr Young said Parliament was a competitive environment and he would welcome additional responsibilities in the future.
"I think everyone thrives on responsibility."
Shane Ardern, MP for Taranaki-King Country, could not be contacted by the Taranaki Daily News yesterday.

Comments about 'WHO: Ebola moving faster than control efforts'
- Oldest first

This is a serious threat to mankind. No cure, and 60-90% fatality rate with up
to 21 day incubation period.
Many people can be exposed and not realize it and then as they travel, expose others, with each new case geometrically multiplying the number of potential carriers who need to be quarantined.
When we are talking about a remote tribal village in Africa, where most people never travel, or go very far, that is a difficult task. When we start talking about hitting major population centers and groups where people travel across continents and oceans in a few hours, the task is almost impossible.
Given the inability or unwillingness of our government to secure the border against millions of illegal aliens, that does not bode well for the ability or willingness to turn back planeloads of potentially infected passengers from Europe or anywhere else.
Ebola may exceed the horrific death tolls of the great flu pandemic following WW1.
If there are promising medicines Congress needs to give immediate approval for their production and full legal immunity for the makers, helping doctors even if it angers liability lawyers.
Pray for those infected, their caregivers, and researchers.

I hope the man in the illustration isn't wearing the respirator mask to
protect himself from Ebola. The virus isn't airborne, but requires contact
with fluids to spread.
That said, the biggest obstacle that the world will face in dealing with this is the combination of fear and ignorance. It's a dangerous combination often leading people to do exactly the wrong things in a state of panic, resulting in epidemics that are far worse than they would otherwise be.

Mullen: Unlikely Anyone Will Face Disciplinary Action Over Farah Killings
Release of Final Report Remains Unclear
Admiral Michael Mullen says that while "there are additional changes we're clearly going to have to make" in the wake of the massive civilian toll in last month's air strikes in Afghanistan's Farah Province, he does not expect anyone will face disciplinary action over the killings.
The strikes reportedly killed 140 civilians, the majority of them children. The US denied the civilian toll entirely at first, but eventually conceded that their own estimates were roughly in line with the Afghan government's.
An official US report regarding the incident has been repeatedly promised by the Defense Department, but internal debate about the conclusions, and the deadliest US strike since the 2001 invasion, has led to repeated delays, and questions over whether the report will be released at all.
At particular issue is an alleged video, which CENTCOM commander David Petraeus claimed vindicated the strikes, proving they were directed at Taliban. The video itself was supposed to be released with the report, and it seems possible that it too will never see the light of day.
