well it was from a tap in the kitchen, not like a kettle so it wasent boiling, and with cold water in aswel, compleatly forgot about warm-hot water taking laquer off! so it was warm, I was quite happy to have my hands in there no problem so it wasent that hot!
Same thing - Selmer and Bach use the same lacquer. A remnant of the time when they were part of the same company. Try getting the shop to accept the warranty, or go for the silver.
BTW - Nice horn, you have good taste!
Why do I like a bell that Points UP ?
- because the spit does not run back into my mouth!
If I were you I'd push it a bit further. The 'guy who repairs instruments' is probably not the same guy who would sign off on a replacement. I think you said this isn't a very old trumpet and the water was comfortable on your hands. Trumpets SHOULD be made to be bathed so I would think that you would have reason to complain and try to get some compensation. Contact the manufacturer directly as well. Complain to everyone the whole way up the chain. My wife's friend recently found a wood chip in a package of diapers and contacted the company (Pam....). They checked it out and then sent her a large quantity of new diapers, coupons, and an apologetic letter. Stuff sometimes happens during manufacturing and something gets out the door that shouldn't. Perhaps there was a problem with the lacquer application on your trumpet.

Fake bomb threat closes 3 schoolsMarch 28,2014LUDLOW — An unidentified out-of-state student faces charges after spurring a bomb scare that closed this town's elementary, middle and high schools Wednesday.
Police said a boy from Fall Mountain Regional High School in Langdon, N.H., upset with adults who monitor students' social media sites, decided to post a bomb threat on the Internet.
"It was a hoax," said Ludlow Police Chief Jeffrey Billings. "He was trying to see whether people were watching his Facebook page. He learned the hard way."
The boy will be cited to appear in White River Junction criminal court.

30 hand picked films. A new one every day
When a senior Russian official, Gen. Marenkov, decides to defect to the west, CIA agent Harry Wargrave is sent to lead the team to get him out. Malenkov reveals that the Russians are trying to develop biological weapons.
Some may find this to be tedious, but to my delight I loved this film. Stripped of all the tedious plot strands that get added to films and cause them to be dragged down, this is a streamlined suspense movie which, if you peel off the Cold War politics, is spy drama mixed with a tale of human determination in extreme circumstances. Also look out for David Hess in a small role.
When Mike Conners welcomes Marvin's Wargrave, he extends his hand. Instead of the expected handshake, Wargrave presents stolen data. This initiates an interesting theme, the avalanche of cold-war creates casualties of denied sybiotic agendas. People 'working the same circuit,' do so without any possible sympathy, willing to sacrifice another's agenda. Death is not physical, but of political and social isolation.
An amusingly appalling Cold War action thriller whose silliness, considering the talents involved, must have at least partly resulted from the untimely deaths of director/producer Mark Robson and star Robert Shaw.

The streets affected were Central Avenue at 15th Street, Laurel Street at Wrightsboro Road, Central Avenue at Emmett Street, 2300 Olive Road, Third Avenue at Laney-Walker Boulevard, the 400 block of Ellis Street, Lombardy Court at Lake Forest Drive, Highway 25 at Harding Road, 1757 and 1763 Brown Road, Victoria Drive, Lumpkin Road at Peach Orchard Road and Coleman Avenue at Virginia Avenue.
"Most of the streets affected are in very low-lying areas," Emergency Management director Mie Lucas said. "But once the rained stopped those roads cleared up pretty quickly."

Pregnancy and your growing baby bump… it's a strange time. You watch your shape change almost daily and while you know it's for good reasons, sometimes it can catch you off guard. You wake up and out of nowhere, you have a large bump in front of you and suddenly none of your clothes fit. You try to eat something, but quickly find out there's little room for any food and you end up having a food baby on top of your real baby.
The growing bump can also cause a whole slew of aches and pains. From the baby kicking you in the ribs to trying to tie your shoes, it can be inconvenient, no matter how much you know it's amazing, wonderful, and you want it.
There are some unexpected benefits you can get from a growing baby bump though too—good things that can be a direct result of your new pregnant shape.
You may even miss some of them when the baby is in your arms and out of your mid-section.
Check out these 10 unexpected benefits of a growing baby bump (I'm realizing all over again!):
10 Unexpected Benefits of a Growing Baby Bump 1 of 11
We so often hear of the aches and pains that come with a growing baby bump, but there are some unexpected benefits too.
You Don't Have to Suck It In 2 of 11
If I forgot to wear my shapewear one day, I'd always feel self-conscious and feel the need to suck it in. Now that I am pregnant, I don't have to worry about it anymore. Bonus!
Built-In Table 3 of 11
If you need to set down your bowl of salad or your milkshake, you don't have to go far. Just place it on your belly bump because it acts as a table.
Excuse to Go Shopping 4 of 11
There are some occasions where I love me some retail therapy and now that I've got a growing baby bump, I have more excuses to go shopping since I need clothes that fit.
Photo Finish 5 of 11
If I was to be in a race (you know, if I ever left the couch), that growing bump in front of me would snag the win by a photo finish.
No Need to Sit Up Straight 6 of 11
When my belly starts to get larger, I don't have to slouch anymore or sit up straight. I can kind of lean on it for support and it's wonderful. It's only weird once the bump is gone and I go to do it again... and fall over.
Built In Halloween Costume 7 of 11
I am going to be quite pregnant by the time Halloween rolls in and with a large bump, I basically already have a built-in costume.
Takes The Attention Away From The Ladies 8 of 11
I have always been big on top and I have been self-conscious about my breast size since I was a teenager. When I am pregnant, they do get bigger, but my baby bump gets even bigger still and takes all the attention away, thankfully.
Excuse Not To Do Laundry 9 of 11
I am short and I grow big baby bellies and when that happens, I have a great excuse to get out of doing laundry because of the belly in the way, I can't reach the bottom of the washing machine. That chore then falls to my husband.
It's Not Weird To Rub Your Stomach 10 of 11
When I am not pregnant, I have been known to rub my stomach if it's hungry or hurting and it kind of looks weird. Now that I have a noticeable baby bump, it doesn't look weird anymore.
Not Far to Pick It Up 11 of 11
I am a messy eater and have been known to drop food onto the floor or spill my drinks all over the place. With a growing baby belly, the food and/or beverage lands on the bump and not my new pair of shoes.

A Chinook helicopter lands to pick up U.S. soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division following a night raid in Yahya Khel, Paktika province February 21, 2011. The night raid is a controversial tactic that has been stepped up dramatically since General David Petraeus took over running the Afghan war last year, despite strong opposition led by President Hamid Karzai. Petraeus says the pressure on suspected insurgents and their networks has brought a new dynamic to a near-decade-old war. Critics argue it is fuelling violence because poor intelligence means dozens of innocent people are killed or detained. Although more than 80 percent of recent raids ended without a shot being fired, violence escalates fast when it does break out, with 600 people killed on operations in the three-month period.

Tony Blair led the flood of tributes to a politician regarded as one of the most distinguished and honourable "One Nation" Tory statesmen of his generation. He said the former Northern Ireland Secretary, Home Secretary and leader of both the House of Commons and Lords had commanded enormous respect "from friend and foe alike" and made a huge contribution to public life.
Viscount Whitelaw of Penrith, who was awarded a hereditary peerage in 1983, had been ill for several months. He died peacefully in his sleep on Wednesday. He leaves a widow, Cecilia, and four daughters.
William Hague, the Conservative leader, said the first political meeting he attended was addressed by Lord Whitelaw and he had been an inspiration to him ever since. "The death of Lord Whitelaw has taken from us one of the towering figures of British politics," he added. Liberal Democrat leader Paddy Ashdown said he was "a wise and honourable One Nation Conservative with a strong sense of humour and public duty."
Baroness Thatcher, who once famously remarked that every premier "needed a Willie", was one of three former Prime Ministers to praise Lord Whitelaw. She said his decency, integrity and patriotism were invaluable and claimed he was "indispensable" to her government. "Willie Whitelaw was one of the great figures of our time and represented all that is best in Britain," she said. "As Deputy Prime Minister he was a pillar of strength and he deserved much of the credit for our successes in the 1980s.
"He had an extraordinary and intuitive understanding of what people were thinking, faultless judgement, and to me he was always a loyal and unwavering friend."
Sir Edward Heath said Lord Whitelaw had been "for decades, one of the most skilful and dependable men in politics. His influence throughout his long career was immense."
And John Major paid tribute to one of the "great Conservatives" of the past 50 years. "He made a massive contribution to our public life," he said. "He personified decency, compassion and tolerance."
William Stephen Ian Whitelaw was born in 1918 and went to Cambridge before a distinguished career in the Army, becoming a tank commander in the Second World War. As a Scots Guards major, he won the Military Cross for bravery in the Normandy campaign and was twice mentioned in dispatches. Field Marshal Montgomery presented his medals, praising his "outstanding leadership and cool courage".
He entered the Commons as MP for Penrith in 1955, and his qualities bore him through Tory ranks to serve in Mr Heath's government in the early 1970s.
As Northern Ireland Secretary, William Whitelaw was nearly forced to quit when it emerged he had been involved in controversial negotiations with the IRA. Lord Fitt, who as Gerry Fitt was leader of the SDLP, was among the first to pay tribute. "He was the first Northern Ireland Secretary since the collapse of Stormont, and by any yardstick he was the most successful," he said. "He succeeded in bringing together both communities and forming the first executive."
After Margaret Thatcher beat Ted Heath for the Conservative leadership, he became her deputy and most trusted lieutenant. Lord Whitehall's geniality and deceptively laid-back manner were the hallmarks of a unique political style of the "minister for banana skins"who calmed the nerves of colleagues during the crises of the Thatcher government.
Lord Whitelaw stepped down as Leader of the Lords in 1988 and ended his 16-year reign as deputy leader of the Conservative party only in 1991.
Even his retirement, he refused to use his memoirs to "tell tales" on the Heath and Thatcher governments, and displayed the loyalty that had won him many friends.

There's capitalism, and then there's "crapitalism" — crony capitalism.
Capitalism is great because it lets entrepreneurs raise money so they can scale up and get their products and services to more people. If there is free competition, innovators with the best ideas raise the most money, and the best and cheapest products spread far and wide.
But it's crapitalism when politicians give your tax money and other special privileges to businesses that are "most deserving of help." Often those businesses turn out to be run by politicians' cronies.
Many government agencies feed this crony capitalism. When there is scandal, such as when the Energy Department lost $500 million on Solyndra, we hear about it. But often we don't. You probably didn't know about the department's other fat losses on businesses like Solar One, the Triad ethanol plant, FutureGen, the Clinch River Breeder Reactor and so on.
Even the Small Business Administration is an embarrassment. They loaned $1 million to a Lamborghini dealership and $3 million to a Rolex dealer. Is this where your tax money should go? Voters assume government handouts go to people who need help. But they usually don't. Most government handouts go to the middle class and the rich.
Government has no business handing out loan guarantees to companies. Corporations can pay their own way. The Agriculture Department's Market Access Program gives millions of dollars to affluent groups like the Pet Food Institute, the Wine Institute, Sunkist and Welch Foods. In return, politicians get campaign contributions. It's disgusting crapitalism.
The biggest funder of this crony capitalism is the Export-Import Bank. The bank says its "financial products enable exporters of all sizes to … protect against the risks of international trade and export with confidence."
That sounds good, and it's why most politicians support it. But for the first time in my memory, there is pushback. Many Republicans want to stop this corporate welfare. The chairman of the House Committee on Financial Services, Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, points out that most of the government's export loans go to "Fortune 500 companies like G.E., like Boeing, who could easily finance these things themselves … the Export-Import Bank claims they create American jobs, but when the Export-Import Bank helps Boeing sell a jet to Air India, it hurts Delta Air Lines."
Right. When government picks winners, it pats itself on the back — and gains crony friends in industry. But it creates losers at the same time.
"When Export-Import Bank helps G.E., and others build an oil refinery in Turkey, it hurts the domestic refining industry," says Hensarling. "For every job Export-Import creates in exports, they kill an American job domestically. It's not helping us."
But few of us bother to complain. Benefits of government spending go to a concentrated few — who fight to keep the program going. When taxpayers and domestic businesses suffer because of resources transferred to the well-connected Ex-Im Bank-linked businesses, we each lose just a few bucks. We will never hire as many lobbyists to criticize the bank as the beneficiaries do to keep it going. Like every other government program, Ex-Im Bank creates a vocal constituency that never wants to see the program die.
And that time and energy spent lobbying is time that companies might have devoted to improving their product or making their business more efficient. Gifts from government get companies to focus on lobbying instead of innovation. Government favoritism creates bad incentives.
Before he was president, Barack Obama agreed with me. He said, "I'm not a Democrat who believes that we can or should defend every government program just because it's there. There are some that don't work, like … the Export-Import Bank that has become little more than a fund for corporate welfare."
Yes! (SET ITAL) Candidate (END ITAL) Obama understood. But now, instead of getting rid of the Ex-Im Bank, he wants the bank to loan out even (SET ITAL) more (END ITAL) of your money.
Does America need "export assistance," as well as "small business support," an "energy policy" and so on?
No! We already have a time-tested policy for deciding, without government interference, where resources should go. It's called the free market. It works much better than government does.

Keratin, the main protein in fingernails, diminishes as we age. This can lead to ridges in the nails. This pink-tinted ridge filler is infused with the peptide ingredient ProSina™, extracted from New Zealand wool. ProSina fights the effects of keratin loss to conceal nail ridges, while Pentavitin draws moisture to nails, moisturizing them and helping make them more flexible.

Schema-only Backups and Restores
Robert Davis
, 2014/01/20
I was reading the blog post Time for a Quick Rant by Grant Fritchey (blog|@GFritchey) about people who choose to not back up a database simply because it is large. I agree wholeheartedly with Grant on this topic. Simply choosing not to back up a database is, well to put it nicely, reckless. The comments that followed brought up some good points about some scenarios where you might choose to not back up a very large database. I performed operations

After digging her spiky heels right into the upper part of his body Lilu punishes the loser with her very special style... Lilu prefers an extensively facesitting punishment and completely controls his breathing capabilities while doing so. She roughly squeezes him right under her sexy ass and let him feel the pain...!
Kathrin uses her living chair more and more. As it's pretty warm she takes off her trousers in between. Wearing only her thong she can feel his face even more. She sits on his face with her full weight and she uses him as her living chair. He's only allowed to breathe when she decides it - in the meantime he just has to follow her orders. Of course he follows her order when she orders him to lie down on the ground as Kathrin decided he should be smelling her ass too. So he starts smelling while she relaxes on his cushion-face. That's what he'll experience more and more from now on as she wants to form him to be a perfect seatpad. No other duties - just alive to be sat on and to smell!
Facesitting Girl Ceylan is from Turkey and she likes to sit on her slaves face. Want to smell her turkish butt ?

2-Stage Enforcement and Regulatory Polarisation: a Simple Model with Application to the USEPA
We present a simple, positive model in which regulatory enforcement is a 2-stage process. In the first stage firms are subject to random inspection. The inspection yields a noisy signal of the firm's true performance. Only if the signal exceeds some critical or "trigger" value is the firm subject to the second stage of enforcement, the audit. Analysis of the 2-stage process reveals some surprising comparative static results. The key result, referred to as regulatory polarisation, is the divergence of response to a tightening of the trigger. Specifically, while non-serious violators improve their performance as a result of a tighter trigger, the performance of serious violators degrades: The good get better whilst the bad get worse. The impact on total system performance is ambiguous and depends upon the initial distribution of firm types. We also analyse the implications of improvements in the accuracy of the inspection technology in such a model, arriving at some unconventional results. Whilst the model is motivated by institutional analysis of the USEPA it is argued to be applicable in a variety of other enforcement contexts.

Sunday dollars + sense: Wine experts are on to something
If the price is high (but not too expensive to buy) we figure it's good.
If the price is low we keep it away from our guests.
We couldn't be more wrong.
A new analysis of more than 6,000 individual wine tastings has settled the question beyond reasonable doubt, and made those of us who buy expensive wines look pretty stupid...
Entitled "Do More Expensive Wines Taste Better?" it has just been published in the Journal of Wine Economics. (Yes, there really is such a journal)...
The key finding: "On average, individuals who are unaware of the price do not derive more enjoyment from more expensive wine. In fact, they enjoy more expensive wines slightly less".
The finding bears repeating: On average, people unaware of the price enjoy expensive wines slightly less than cheap ones. The implication is that price is a good guide if you use it to buy cheap.
But there was one group of taste testers that behaved differently. These people could spot the expensive wines (although still not that much more often than by chance) and they actually seemed to prefer them. They were wine critics – the sort of people that make a living advising people like you and me on what's good.
To quote the study again, "experts, unlike non-experts, on average assign as high – or higher – ratings to more expensive wines".
The findings suggest that if one wine costs ten times as much as another, non-experts will on average rate it 4 points lower on a 100 point scale whereas experts will rate it 7 points higher.
The experts are expert at something. But it appears not to be at predicting what you and I will like.
In fact the study suggests we will be more likely to find what we like if we use their recommendations as a guide for what to steer clear of.
The researchers say this might be because the experts have developed acquired tastes. But they are acquired tastes that aren't much use as a guide to the rest of us.
Of course in the real world away from blind taste tests, reviews and prices do matter. Your guests might be offended if you plonked cask wine or a $2.50 cleanskin on the table.
My advice is to buy it and pour it into an expensive well-reviewed bottle.

Hospital goes wireless to improve night shift care

The hospital has equipped doctors with Compaq iPaq PDAs linked to the wireless Lan so that they can be contacted quickly in an emergency. The system can also be used to provide doctors with any information they need on the spot.
The wireless Lan, from Aruba Networks, underpins proprietary NHS software, known as iBleep, that enables staff to generate, accept and interact with calls from wards. In the past, doctors were bleeped and had to call in via land lines for more details.
Steve Baldwin, deputy network manager at UHSM, said, rather than trying to pinpoint a doctor by faxing a page and hoping that they receive it and phone through, ward staff could now send more detailed information directly to the doctor's PDA.
Sue Barrow, pay and workforce manager at the hospital, said the NHS's Hospitals at Night initiative, which recommends the provision of cover through a multidisciplinary medical team, was the instigator of the programme.
She said the project was also designed to take into account the European Working Time Directive, which limits the time doctors can work because of health and safety reasons.
The project, which began last October, is two-thirds of the way through and is expected to be completed this summer. It is being implemented in partnership with network integrator Vanix.
Data on the network is secured using the WPA and WPA2 wireless encryption standards.

3.4GHz will be the stock clock of the new X4 965, making it the fastest quad-core on the market, along with the Xeon X5492 from Intel, which is a 150W part, though. The 965 will keep the 125W TDP, as is mentioned on ASRock's website. It will feature the same cache as the 955 and it will be a Black Edition.
We saw here that the Phenom II X4 955 often beat the Core i7 920 in gaming due to its higher frequency. With an extra 200MHz, the 965 will probably be able to compete with the Core i7 940's performance in many cases, which currently sells for $587.17 on NCIXUS.com. However, AMD will most probably launch it at a very competing price, which will force Intel to cut prices on its Core 2 and maybe Core i7 line.
This time, I would not be surprised if the Phenom II X4 965 had a bit more overclocking potential than the 940 and 955. It would be somewhat disappointing if on air it also maxed out at around 3.8GHz, which would be only a 400MHz increase. This is what we will see if Neoseeker gets his hands on one!

Jeff Grimes, who also carries the mantle of the team's assistant head coach, spoke to the press following Friday's practice. Grimes was taking over head coach Dan Hawkins' usual post-practice media duties because Hawkins had to be in Denver for an annual CU-CSU luncheon.
The offensive line coach said what he's said since he got to Boulder prior to spring ball — he wants his offensive linemen to set the tone for the team in terms of toughness.
Grimes showed a little color when he said, "You can't expect the little skinny guys wearing sweat bands and bicep bands and all that stuff to lead the charge into battle. So it starts with us. And then, ultimately, I think our team will only be as tough as the offensive line. Because the defensive line will only be tough if they're used to someone hitting them in the mouth every day."
Grimes said the unit is on track to be as tough as he wants them to be, but they're not there yet.
• Senior Tyler Polumbus continues to show good leadership this camp.
"He was probably the strongest leader, the strongest personality on our offense right now," Grimes said. "He's willing to take that role." Grimes also indicated junior center Daniel Sanders as someone who's got a strong grasp of the offense and has shown good leadership the past two weeks.
• Grimes also said coaches have realized the team has been sluggish the past several practices after a crisp first 2 weeks of fall camp. He said it's typical for a team to start to lose its legs at this point in camp. However, Grimes warned the coaches really need to get the players' attention in the coming practices.
The team will practice twice Saturday and once Sunday, before taking Monday — the first day of classes — off from football. The weekend practices won't be as physical as the first couple weeks of camp. The idea is to let the players gather themselves physically, and be ready to go next Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the attitude needs to be amped up.
"We've got to have all our focus on beating Colorado State, and that means extra preparation, extra film work," he said. "We're not just out here practicing, we're preparing to go to battle next week."
• The Buffs will begin a new pre-game tradition prior to the Sept. 15 home game vs. Florida State. Approximately two hours before kickoff, the team will arrive at Folsom Stadium in their team buses. They'll be let out of the buses just east of the ticket booths outside of Folsom, on Colorado Ave. The team will then walk up the street and to the plaza outside Folsom, touch the bronze statue of Ralphie, then walk into the stadium and to their locker room.
Coaches want as many fans as possible at the pre-game walk to greet the players.

I don't know of anyone who was murdered but I did know a girl that killed herself. She was only 16 and her boyfriend had broken up with her and she went over to his house and shot herself in the chest right in front of him. So very tragic.
Very OT- do you know anyone that was murdered?
hours before calling for help. Tragic
When I was in 4th grade, the teacher from the classroom next to mine was stabbed to death in her sleep by her son. 14 years ago my cousin was shot point blank in her apartment, and it's a cold case now. She was a few months shy of turning 30. My aunt and uncle have never really come to terms with it and have had no closure since they don't even know who did it.
My best friend had a horribly creepy experience. A guy she had been talking to pretty casually, but thankfully never agreed to date because she sensed he was off...she was on the phone with him one day, and he was making kind of odd noises and told her he was tearing out carpet to have new carpet laid. It was true, but it turned out he had to replace his carpet because he had dismembered his girlfriend and rolled up the parts of her body in the old carpet and distributed them in different dumpsters around Indianapolis.
You just gotta keep on livin', man. L-I-V-I-N!
The love of my life hung himself in 2007.
A guy I used to hang out with was just shot and killed in October. His ex-gf had been stalking him for months. She slit his tires 4 times and busted the windows out of his apartment. He even moved apartments but she still found him. She shot him 9 times. He had a 7 year old son.

Also, a few years ago I was at a house babysitting and I heard piercing screams outside the door. I thought it was a couple people just messing around. Turns out it was the screams of a woman being dragged across the lawn, stabbed, and shoved into a dumpster.
Ugh...makes me start shaking just thinking about these horrific crimes.
I also used to date a guy whose father owned a business that cleaned up crime scenes. He saw the most horrible things :(
When my mom was little she told me a story about having to clean up a suicide. Her older sister was supposed to get married but her and her fiancé got into a little argument so she left to their moms house. She hadn't heard from her fiancé so she went to check on him at the apartment they shared and he had killed himself. My mom says that he "killed" himself with a rather long gun so it's hard to stay if he was really able to kill himself but she and my grandma had to clean up the crime scene because it was ruled a suicide.

CHICAGO (December 23, 2015) — It's a familiar scene this time of year: parents filing into shops to buy Christmas gifts. For the parents gathered on Saturday, December 12, at By the Hand Club for Kids on Chicago's West Side, things were a little different. They shopped with vouchers earned through family involvement in By the Hand's community programs, and they purchased gifts donated by North Park University's students, staff, faculty, and alumni.
At the event, called the Great Gift Shoppe, North Park students served hot chocolate, wrapped presents, and directed traffic. Putting gifts under the trees of Chicago families has been a holiday tradition at North Park for several years. The University partnered with By the Hand Club in Englewood and New Life Centers of Chicago this year, providing 140 children with gifts.
The Great Gift Shoppe is a student-driven initiative, planned by the
Urban Outreach Programming Team, 10 students who facilitate campus-wide service events. Over the past two years, the team has redesigned the program. "We had some deep dialogue with students about what it means that the only gift that a lot of these children were getting was coming from us—and not their family," said Richard Kohng, the Urban Outreach coordinator at North Park. Out of this, they designed a shop, where the parents could be invested in the process. Parents request specific gifts for their children and buy them with vouchers.
Robert Cager, a student at North Park Theological Seminary and intern with University Ministries, oversaw this year's program. "This new setup gives the parents the ability to actually gift their children with something rather than just accepting donations," he said. "The parents are empowered and encouraged in this process."
This shift in approach is part of an overall philosophy of student ministry at the University. According to Cager, "Missions and outreach ministry at North Park is not just about helping people, but it's about humility and learning from those we're called to help and minister to. The students also learn what it means to be content and grateful for what they have been privileged to receive back at home. This is learned by the students and taught by the families."
Cager says he's proud of how North Park students managed the event. "How they unified this past weekend to work for a cause that Christ has called us—loving our neighbors as ourselves—was simply amazing. With their outstretched hands this week, that love was displayed."

The Upcoming National Party Board Election, Ctd
The National Party board election is coming up soon, and as previously mentioned all round good guy and burner of the midnight oil Grant McCullum is leaving, much to the disappointment of the night owls in the party.
The three contenders for the board are Stephen McElrea, Andrew Hunt and Glenda Hughes.
All three have real strengths, though the National Party board has been lacking in political low bastardry since my oldest friend in caucus, Scott Simpson, traded his board position in to become MP for Coromandel. Since Scott has left the Board has lacked the kind of rat cunning that political parties really need.
There are a number of MPs that have outstayed their welcome in caucus and need to be moved on, and the current board doesn't look like it has anyone who will be able to sidle up to an MP and say "Lindsay old chap, it might be time for you to go and spend some more time with your family". To do this the board member has to have the support of the PM, or the whispers can be safely ignored. Read more »
