Robin Roy
A date with Bollywood
When Hrithik, Abhay and Farhan set out on their road trip in in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, everyone drooled. Not just because of the scenic Spanish countryside, but the soft-top Buick they rent out for the journey. Be it the Chevrolets or the Impalas from a bygone era or the Mercedes, Porsches and Ferraris of the present one, Bollywood's always been in love with convertibles. After all, they are just perfect for romantic escapades, car chases and dream numbers. Rewind to the '50s, when the 1920s Ford convertible held its own against the three irrepressible Ganguly brothers in Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi.
A swanky 1948 Studebaker Commander was Shammi Kapoor's prized possession in Kashmir ki Kali as he sings Kahin na kahin. Films like Waqthad a whole fleet of them - from the oomphy ones in red and yellow that Raj Kumar and Sunil Dutt race in, to the pretty Standard that Sharmila Tagore drives. The romance continued with Rajesh Khanna crooning Mere sapnon ki rani and even Chala jata hoon in Mere Jeewan Saathi. Years later, Hrithik Roshan in Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai sang Kyon chalti hai pawan in a cute blue convertible. Even Tashan's red Mercedes convertible is one endearing memory cinegoers carry - more so than Kareena's size zero, from that film!

I earn my living by solving problems, designing solutions, analyzing data, and by helping people and businesses to be better at what they do. I try to make the World a better place.
Who am I?
I'm self-taught IT specialist and manager. I've started programming when I was 8 years old and never stopped. My biggest achievement is work I do as CIO / Director of Software Development for Poland biggest independent energy and gas company - Duon sp. z o.o. (almost 3 years and counting).
When I was a teenager I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease and that's why I never graduated high school. Instead I spent my "3 years of Crohn's house arrest" learning to code and started earning my living. I've moved from family house when I was 16. All of that gave me knowledge and experience to become a freelancer, and later Project Manager, Team Leader and ultimately a CIO.
What I bring to the table?
Strong commitment to the project. I need challenges and I want to see other people enjoy my work. This is my driving force.
Excellent planning. I see dependencies, I break them down into tasks and distribute them according to skills.
Extensive practical knowledge. In fields of programming, project management, team leadership, technologies.
Great communication. This is most important and often forgotten thing. Clear and fast communication is king.
Problem solving. I think analytically and I have a great deal of knowledge in many fields.
What I expect from you?
Challenges. Throw the problems and ideas at me and let me propose a solution or two.
Sharing "The Big Picture". Let me know the current challenges and plans for future, it will help me to prepare for it.
Possibility to telecommute (working from home). Sometimes it's best for me to work at home – I have our tasks and I want to focus on them 100% (as in whole work-time).

When I was pregnant I more or less compeltely cut caffeine out of my diet, cold turkey. It was rough, and from time to time I'd cheat and have a caffeinated can of pop, but that was it.
Now that I'm breastfeeding I still want to have caffeine now and then, but I looked at how long it takes little ones to process and about died! But I also read not much gets into the milk...
So I have questions, and hopefully someone can steer me in the direction of answers:
1) Is caffeine like alcohol in that once your body processes it, it's not in your milk anymore? Or is it that once it gets in the milk it's stuck, even if your body processes the rest that didn't get into the milk?
2) If I wanted to have a can of pop (about 40 mg of caffeine I think on avg) when should I have it? Should I do it right after pumping (I exclusive pump) or should I do it before?

To spot your life's guiding star
My research built upon the well-grounded observation that people can accomplish more when they set clear goals.Almost everyone recognizes the great value of setting goals.
Still, most people tend to set much more explicit goals for low priority domains than for their most important ambitions. (This lapse is labeled the Delmore Effect, after the failed poet, Delmore Schwartz).
It seemed reasonable that this neglect of the most important could be reversed if people first reflected on their past achievements in that important life area. In fact, such an exercise made the Delmore Effect slightly worse. Another experiment demonstrated that distractions, per se, don't help. But finally, by thinking first about related goals which were not of top-priority, people finally managed to overcome the Delmore Effect.
Astronomers know to look slightly away from the point at which they expect to locate a star. Analogously, when a person aims to most clearly articulate her own guiding goals, she would be more successful by calling to mind the values which are peripherally related and supportive of her complete self.
Instead of directly confronting the value of greatest import, a person can become more articulate about their central life goals by taking a slightly less direct approach.

I really admire this one, Cory!
"…a snowglobe-sung by Wayne - IN Russian!" BRILLIANT! BUT … who but Ludmilla would want it? :-]
Very good - can I have one?
"IOPTA," whatever that means.
mmyea…but WHAT DOES IT MEAN…I mean in ingles??…is it an expletive..deleted or otherwise …or an expression of surprise??? My Rusian is left wanting I'm afraid.
They didn't have a snow globe of Stalingrad?
Living in NYC for 25 years gives me enough time to look at multilingual subway ads so I've pretty much deciphered the Russian alphabet. I think it's funny that "Danke Schoen" is followed by the English word "Darling" (complete with a Russian pronunciation including the "hard G").
I can suspend disbelief about Wayne Newton; it's much more fun to do that than to actually listen to him (which I can't stand - he's as awful as the stupid song, and both are perfect for showcasing in snow globes). If the Beatles could record "Sie liebt dich (ja, ja, ja)" in German - which they did - then anything could happen.
I like Ludmilla - she's a multi-layered personality. Triggering her sentimentality is like "touching a nerve" … and Corey depicts that perfectly! This strip feels like a Christmas present to me.
Merry Christmas everyone!! :)

Maybe if you weighed an ounce and took out that saw, this chair is usable.
How to remove a branch high in a tree: option 1, hire a tree guy $100+; option 2, purchase telescoping saw $50; option 3, broom handle + clamp + duct tape + pruning saw, $0.
Here we see a Belgian man who was tired with the sedan life and decided to give his car a little upgrade by sawing the top off of it. Call it a midlife crisis on a budget.

Enrollment in UPMC plans soar
UPMC Health Plan said Tuesday that enrollment for its Medicare Advantage plans -- an increasingly popular insurance alternative for seniors -- grew at a double-digit rate over last year.
The insurance company, a subsidiary of Pittsburgh hospital system UPMC, said membership in its six Medicare Advantage products on Jan. 1 was 92,617, an increase of 13.6 percent, or 11,072 members, over 2011 enrollment.
"Western Pennsylvania is a very competitive landscape for Medicare," said Eugene Scanzera, vice president of Medicare for UPMC Health Plan. "For us to have high growth, it means changing the market share, and we have done that. It's clear we're getting more than just our fair share of growth."
UPMC Health Plan said the plans, known as UPMC for Life, grew in Allegheny County by 11.2 percent to 30,564 members, as of Jan. 1. UPMC for Life is the third largest Medicare Advantage program in the state.
Highmark Inc., the state's largest health insurer, said it had about 273,000 members enrolled in Medicare Advantage and Medicare supplemental plans as of Jan. 1. The Downtown nonprofit Blue Cross company declined to provide a year-over-year comparison.
But according to Mark Farrah Associates, a Maine consulting company that tracks insurance enrollment, Highmark had 294,236 Medicare Advantage members in Pennsylvania as of Feb.1, a 0.4 percent increase over Feb. 1, 2011, when Highmark had 292,969 members. Mark Farrah Associates uses the Feb.1 comparison because it captures "all changes for the entire Medicare Advantage annual open enrollment period," said Debra A. Donahue, vice president of market analytics.
By the same measure, UPMC had 108,182 Medicare Advantage members in the state, up 11.7 percent. UPMC is ranked second behind Highmark by Mark Farrah Associates. UPMC is followed by Aetna Inc. and Independence Blue Cross, a Philadelphia nonprofit insurer, both which showed year-to-year declines.
The federal government's Medicare program for retirees pays a fixed amount to private insurance companies that offer Medicare Advantage plans to pay for care of members. While the insurers must follow rules set by the government, they can charge different out-of-pocket costs and set their own rules on referrals and network providers.
Nationally, enrollment in Medicare Advantage plans is up about 10 percent over last year, according to the Health and Human Services Department. About 12.7 million people were enrolled in the plans at the start of this year, up from 11.7 million at the beginning of last year, the department said this month. Premiums also are down about 7 percent on average, the department said.
UPMC and Highmark are involved in a battle over dominance of the health care industry in Western Pennsylvania. UPMC refuses to negotiate new reimbursement contracts with Highmark, which means UPMC's doctors and hospitals will be out-of-network for Highmark's commercial insurance members after June 30, 2013. Highmark is trying to buy Pittsburgh's No. 2 hospital network, West Penn Allegheny Health System for $475 million and spend another $500 million to create an integrated health care system to compete against UPMC.
UPMC Health Plan started this year with a total of 1.79 million members, up 14.5 percent from the 1.56 million members it had at the beginning of 2011.
Included in its total membership are 666,000 people covered by mental health benefits paid through the government's Medicaid program. Enrollment in the behavioral health programs was up 7 percent at the beginning of this year.
UPMC Health Plan also provides health insurance through employers and those commercial plans had 373,621 members as the beginning of January, up 11.1 percent over last year.
The remainder of its members are covered under workers compensation insurance or ancillary insurance plans, such as pharmacy, vision or dental.
Highmark said it had 3.1 million members at the beginning of this year, basically flat from last year. Within that total are 2.5 million members who receive insurance through their employers, which includes regional companies and national companies with headquarters in the Pittsburgh region and employees in other locations. Highmark added 41,000 members to its commercial business, it said.
Highmark, which is facing stiffer competition from national insurance carriers in the Pittsburgh market, retained "nearly 90 percent" of its small-employer business, which "is better than historical results despite the strong competition from commercial insurers and the UPMC dispute," spokesman Michael Weinstein said.

Recommendations and FAQ
Where should I ask additional questions?
- Send an email to github-owners mozilla.org and we'll respond right away! We're also available on #github on irc.
How do I hook up a new 3rd party application to a repository in the mozilla org?
3rd party applications can easily impact many other repositories than the initial one. For that reason, the following steps are strongly encouraged:
- Create yourself a new github user for this repository.
- Make them an admin of the repository(s) temporarily.
- Sign in as the new github user and setup the 3rd party application.
- Log back into your normal account.
- Try to reduce access of that user from an admin of the repository(s) to read only access.
- If (5) doesn't work, at least the 3rd party application will not have access to all of your normal github account's (including private repositories).
- Authorizing an application to work with GitHub utilizes the permissions your account has -- so, any repositories you have access to the application will have access to as well (including private ones). If you want to grant access to an application that no one else has used with the Mozilla organization yet you'll see a "Request access" button during the set up flow. You'll need to click that button to request approval. See below for an example:
- In some cases, the application does not need to be "approved" to function correctly, as it has read only access to any public repository. (Some applications only want write access to help you configure the application first time.)
- In other cases, the application does need write permission, and/or permission to read a private repository. In these cases, it is helpful to send the details to the owner's team, either by opening a bug or email.
Reviewing owners and permissions
As an owner or repository admin you're responsible for maintaining the list of people with access to your projects. Please be active and prudent about maintaining this list.
Can I be an Owner of the Mozilla Organization?
The Owners group on GitHub has complete administrative power and will be limited to a minimal number of people and reviewed regularly. If a person is an owner, they are expected to actively participate in the group and assist others as requested. Owners will be added as a need arises (for example, support in another timezone) as determined by the current owners.
All owners must have 2FA enabled for their GitHub login. (Everyone else should.)
Can I be a Member of the Mozilla Organization?
Contributor Information
Good news! You do not need to be a member of the Mozilla organization on GitHub before you can contribute to Mozilla!!!! We have several sites which can help you find the best fit for contribution:
- General volunteering options,
- Or pick from these areas,
- Or jump right into fixing a bug.
- If you're already a contributor (THANK YOU!) looking for a place to have your work recognized (even if not coding related), please see the Credits FAQ for inclusion in the credits.
Once you're working on a project, the project leaders can help you get access to anything you need.
Team Maintainers & Project Leads
Project owners and team maintainers may find the following information helpful when asking for access for a new team member:
- With recent GitHub enhancements (2015), we encourage the following (rough) guidelines, which strongly prefers using github teams. As a reminder, all members of the Mozilla organization on github agree to be bound by Mozilla's Commit Access Requirements, and should follow the intent of the Mozilla's Commit Access Policy as much as practical.
- "Outside Collaborator": repository admins can grant outside collaborator to any GitHub account. "Outside Collaborator" is roughly analogous to "Level 1a" access to Mozilla-hosted repositories.
- "Team Member": team maintainers can add GitHub users to a team, if they are already a member of the organization. If you are not yet a member of the organization, the team maintainer should request your addition to their team, as a form of vouching. "Team Member" is roughly analogous to "Level 2" or "Level 3", with the distinction being the content of the repositories managed by the team.
Note: As of June 30, 2016, all members of the Mozilla organization on github MUST have 2FA enabled.
Note: Automation accounts are also required to have 2FA enabled. Scripts should use access tokens with minimum permissions to accomplish the task.
The best way to ask for a Contributor to be invited to the organization is to open a bug including the contributor's GitHub login, and the team(s) they need access to.
Should I make a separate github organization or just create a repository in an existing one?
This is a personal preference. If you have a large enough project or organization feel free. We suggest you use the strategies and recommendations here as a model to manage the details.
Forking vs Transferring
Do not "fork" a repository into a Mozilla organization. Doing so gives every team in the org rights to it.
If you have created a repo on your own account (for example, myuser/myrepo) and it should live under the Mozilla organization, here are the steps:
Note: As soon as you transfer, your repository will be in "limbo" (only you will have write access) until you get the assistance of an org admin who can make the changes. Please plan in advance if timing is critical.
- If you're not a member of any team, talk to an org admin.
- Under the repo admin, transfer ownership to the Mozilla organization. If you don't see this option, return to step 1.
- Choose which teams should be given access. All chosen teams will have only 'read' access at this point.
- Ask an org admin to grant team permissions higher than read ('write' and 'admin' are the other choices). (Team maintainers do not have the ability to change a repositories status.)
- Fork the repo from Mozilla (mozilla/myrepo) back to your account (recreating myuser/myrepo). While the transferred repo becomes the root of the network on GitHub (e.g. all forks are now forks of mozilla/myrepo) other users may be pointing to your repo by URL. (Optional, github will redirect old URLs for transfers, but you probably want a local repo if you use the PR workflow.)
Do I need to be an owner to create repositories?
No. If a person has read/write access to another repository in that organization they can make more repositories in that organization. However, it's preferred that you create repositories in the context of a team.
Are there requirements for when or how I should create a new team?
No. When requirements were proposed they all seemed too rigid and time consuming. Instead we recommend staying flexible and using good naming and documentation for projects (similar to naming CSS classes or variables).
On large teams we recommend you separate teams for read/write and repository administration.
No, there are plenty of Mozilla-related "organizations" on github. As a rule of thumb, initiatives that create a large number of sub-repositories will create their own "organization". Here is a (probably incomplete) list of them:

Hotel Mozart - Opatija
Our stay was lovely. Great location. We really enjoyed being there in Opatija. Rooms are very spacious. Hotel reception staff were very nice. It is supposed to be 5 star but the toiletries were not replaced and it is very difficult with the shower over the bath with mobility issues. The bathrooms should be upgraded.

Panfilio infuses 'Rita' with hopeful humor
In the opening scene of "Educating Rita," Willy Russell's bittersweet play about a 26-year-old hairdresser trying to start over and the alcoholic literature professor assigned to help her, Rita bounds into Frank's book-lined study for her first lesson.
Her attention is immediately drawn to an ostensibly chaste but erotically charged portrait on the wall, and within the blink of an eye she has offered a bawdy, original and wide-ranging interpretation of how that portrait works. Admitting he hasn't looked at it in years, the best Frank can manage is the bland assessment that it's "beautiful." »Read Full Article

Intercollegiate Athletics:
Four-Year Colleges' Experiences Adding and Discontinuing Teams
GAO-01-297: Published: Mar 8, 2001. Publicly Released: Mar 8, 2001.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6778
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The number of women participating in intercollegiate athletics at four-year colleges and universities increased substantially between school years 1981-82 and 1998-99, while the number of men participating increased more modestly. The total number of women's teams increased by 3,784 teams, compared to an increase of 36 men's teams. In all, 963 schools added teams and 307 discontinued teams since 1992-93. The two factors cited most often as greatly influencing the decision to add or discontinue teams were the need to address student interest in particular sports and the need to meet gender equity goals and requirements. Schools that discontinued men's teams also found the need to reallocate the athletic budget to other sports. Colleges and universities that discontinued a team typically took three months or less between originating the proposal and making the final decision. Most schools informed members of the campus community of the possibility that the team would be discontinued, and most held meetings with campus groups before making the final decision. Most schools offered to help affected athletes transfer to other schools, and students receiving athletics-related financial aid continued to receive financial aid for at least some period after the team was disbanded. Schools that were able to add one or more teams without discontinuing others used various strategies to increase athletic program revenue and contain costs. Some schools relied on the institution's general fund, while others used private sources and athletic facility rental fees.

Welcome to the Daily Buzz, a quick and pithy rundown of the stories people are talking about:
On-duty Pa. police officer accused of 'caressing' woman's butt is charged
This incident out of Crawford County, Pa., is another kind of alleged police brutality: An on-duty police officer in Titusville is accused of approaching a female clerk in a local tobacco store and proceeding to "grab and/or caress" the victim's "left buttock" without her consent, the website YourErie.com writes.
The alleged incident occurred while the unwitting clerk was stocking shelves at the store, the website reports.
As a result of the July 24 incident, this week the Pennsylvania State Police, along with the Crawford County District Attorney's Office, filed charges against the now-former Titusville officer, Clarence Lee Peterson, the website writes.
Peterson faces one misdemeanor count of indecent assault and one summary count of harassment.
Titusville Police Chief Gary Thomas also informed the website that Peterson was no longer employed by the department following his resignation on August 1.
So what should be this allegedly grabby ex-officer's punishment?
Tell us.
Teen girl missing for 9 months suffered 'unspeakable' violence, family says
It has been a quiet, somber homecoming for 15-year-old Abigail Hernandez following a harrowing, nine-month abduction. And now we know why.
In somewhat of a miracle, the Conway, New Hampshire, teen returned to her family last month. This, after the then-14-year-old disappeared Oct. 9 on her way home from school.
Over those long nine months away, Abby "suffered numerous acts of unspeakable violence," the family now says in a statement reported on by the Associated Press.
The statement, released Tuesday on behalf of Abigail and her mother, says that the girl is alive and home with her family only "through her faith, fortitude and resilience." The family requests time and space for Abby to heal both physically and emotionally, adding:
"As the justice system moves forward, and the evidence is revealed, questions about this horrific event will be answered," the statement reads in-part. "Abby was violently abducted by a stranger. For many months, she suffered numerous acts of unspeakable violence. Through her faith, fortitude and resilience, she is alive today and home with her family."
Nathaniel Kibby, 34, is charged with kidnapping Hernandez. He is being held on $1 million cash bail, according to media reports. And investigators allege Hernandez was confined for a period of time at Kibby's mobile home.
Abby returned home July 20 under circumstances that were just as murky as the details of her disappearance.
Hot-car carnage: Mother, 2 baby daughters found dead in sweltering vehicle
The spate of summertime hot-car tragedies and near-tragedies just got unimaginably worse: The Associated Press is reporting that a mother and her two young daughters found dead in their stifling car in Hagerstown, Maryland, earlier this summer died of accidental heatstroke.
The victims were discovered inside their vehicle, which was parked in a middle school parking lot, the AP reports. The Maryland medical examiner's office ruled Tuesday that the three died from accidental heatstroke in the June 16 case.
The formal cause of death was hyperthermia and environmental heat exposure, spokesman Bruce Goldfarb told AP.
Background: Allison Keyonda Pluck, also known as Allison Lancaster, 32, was found dead in her silver Nissan sedan June 16 along with the bodies of Shania Gill, 18 months, and Shameka Gill, 6 months. The mother was reclined in the driver's seat and the girls were strapped in their child seats with the windows closed, the ignition off and the doors unlocked, police said.
Police have found no connection between the family and the school.
Police said in June that an employee of Western Heights Middle School, leaving on the last day for teachers before summer break, spotted the bodies in the late afternoon. The outdoor temperature peaked near 90 degrees that day.
Surveillance video at a local Wal-Mart showed Pluck buying a DVD player at about 6 a.m. that day.
School surveillance video showed the car arriving at the school at 6:16 a.m., then driving around the back of the building and parking in an employee lot, where it remained until the bodies were found around 4:30 p.m.

All flowers are lovely, but I really like violets and Queen Anne's Lace. In terms of making paper flowers, the peonies are great. Recipients seem to really favor roses overall, though.

A woman on the cusp of 40 decides to kill her two young children and
commit suicide. She survives, however, and, in a state of shock, gets into her car and drives off, fully intending to kill herself in a car accident. A cop pulls
her over for speeding. Noticing how upset she is, he decides to drive her back home. He begins to feel sympathy for the taciturn and distressed woman. A relationship develops between them, one of glances, wordless communication and compassion. When the cop drops the woman off at her home, he discovers the bodies of her two children and understands the full horror of what has
happened. He decides to help her fulfill her ultimate wish: to die.
An acclaimed writer, director, and film and television actress, Micheline Lanctôt directed her first feature, L'Homme
à tout faire, in 1980. The film was screened at several prestigious festivals, including the Directors' Fortnight at Cannes and the San Sebastian Film Festival, where it won the Silver Medal in 1980. Her second feature, Sonatine, won a Silver Lion Award at the 1984 Venice Film Festival, while her third feature, Deux actrices (1993), won
the Prix Ouimet-Molson at the 1994 Rendez-vous du cinéma québécois in Montréal. Also in 1994, her film La Vie d'un Héros was screened at several festivals in Canada, the United States and Europe.

Vt. Senate panel passes pot decriminalization bill
MONTPELIER — A Vermont Senate committee has approved a bill that would remove criminal penalties for possession of up to an ounce of marijuana.
The bill, which was voted out of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, will now go before the full Senate.
The House passed the legislation last month.
Instead of a criminal penalty, those caught with up to an ounce of pot would face a civil fine like a traffic ticket of up to $300. It also seeks to reduce the chances that anyone caught with up to 2 ounces would have a permanent criminal record, and defines a new crime of driving while smoking marijuana.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Neither of the two top Republican seeking office in Vermont this fall agrees with...

Lionsgate UK just dropped a four-minute long look at Philip Ridley's Heartless (review here) and its trek to the 42nd Sitges Film Festival, and we've got it for you minus the jet-lag.
The film follows Jamie (Jim Sturgess), a young man living with his mother in East London. Born with a disfiguring heart-shaped birthmark on his face, Jamie finds it increasingly difficult to fit into society due to constant taunts from local louts and the stares of the general public. Instead, he channels all of his effort into photography and one night gets a glimpse of what appears to be a toothy, demonic face looking out from inside a dilapidated house.
While television news reports describe members of the public being brutally set alight by a gang of Molotov-throwing hooded youths wearing devil masks, Jamie comes to the realization that they aren't masks at all – demons dressed in hoodies, the foot soldiers of hell, are flooding London. When his mother is brutally killed and Jamie awakens in a hospital, he goes in search of vengeance. This leads him to the devilish Papa B (a suitably slimy Joseph Mawle) – the embodiment of Satan himself.
With nobody left to guide or comfort him, Jamie enters into a Faustian pact – his birthmarks will be removed, giving him a chance at a normal life and love, in exchange for some minor acts of chaos. Of course, no deal with the Devil is ever as simple as it seems to be, and soon Jamie is forced into murderous acts of sacrifice. Along the way he meets Tia (Clémence Poésy) and a relationship blossoms – but can Jamie protect her, and indeed himself, from the new world he has entered?
Sound interesting? They had me at demons burning people alive. Dig on the video below, and look for more on this one soon.

The No-Rehearsal Nativity
A church nativity resource with a difference
Janine Gillion£8.99 Add to basket Buy now
Bring everyone together in a no-fuss, pure enjoyment retelling of the Christmas story!
The No-Rehearsal Nativity makes it possible for churches to put on a nativity play that families in their congregation and local community can simply join in with on the day. Ideal for service leaders who lack the time or confidence to organise a rehearsed nativity play, it also provides a way to involve families who do not normally attend church or are visiting over Christmas.
Includes full script, advice on preparation, publicity and staging, and options to set the play within a Christingle or crib service. A 'no-sew nativity' appendix provides instructions and templates for making simple costumes on a budget.
Endorsements for The No-Rehearsal Nativity have not yet been added.
STAR News - Diocese of Peterborough September 2016
This book really does explain how to put on an effective nativity with no rehearsal. You are taken through ideas for costumes, advertising, carols, having too few or too many children and how to get everyone to join in. The author is a professional actor and teacher - and it shows! She really knows how to 'let's stage the show right here!'
Staging a nativity play is great outreach - you could a lot worse than start with this helpful book.
Rona Orme - Children's Missioner Diocese of Peterborough
I've never orchestrated a Nativity play myself, but I've watched Love Actually enough times to know they can be total chaos. Even without lobsters!
The thought of organising the annual nativity play is enough to make me strategically avoid the Children's Minister every Sunday within six months of Christmas, for fear they might try to conscript me.That is, before I read this book, The No-Rehearsal Nativity!
Janine Gillion, as a professional actor, teacher and ministry partner with her husband Bishop Rob Gillion, has a wealth of experience with the nativity play.
This is obvious in the opening sections of the book, in which she discusses the variety of fears that one might bring to the organisation of a nativity play; Gillion asks, 'Do you feel you aren't confident enough to stage a performance? Do you lack time to organise everything? Are you worried about asking your children to learn lines? Are you afraid you'll have too many children, or not enough? Does it all seem like simply too big a task? If you have never attempted a nativity, or if you do one each year but they are not working... I hope to encourage you.'
Gillion goes on to share her methods for navigating the various factors involved in organising a nativity play: the children (from the anxious to the beligerent) the parents (from the anxious to the beligerent!) the script, the props, the costumes, and the audience.
The most precious gem in this book, for me personally, was the No-Rehearsal Nativity script.
Nativity plays are a wonderful opportunity to share in the Christmas story.
Gillion's approach to presenting a nativity play is called Directed Drama, a method in which, 'The director or storyteller tells the story while the children react to what he or she is saying... in the No-Rehearsal Nativity, the storyteller is in control.'
This technique, and the script she provides for its performance, was particularly appealing to me, as it remedies many of the difficulties I would anticipate when organising a nativity play: it takes the pressure off children to learn lines and rehearse, reducing their nerves, and leading them to enjoy the experience of dressing up and being part of a group performance. As well as this, it doesn't depend on hours of work being put into the construction of elaborate costumes or props.
The book also includes costume tips, make-your-own Christingle instructions, and an example of a service booklet for a Christmas event involving the No-Rehearsal Nativity scene.
The No-Rehearsal Nativity by Janine Gillion is a thoughtful, user-friendly resource with decades of experience gone into its making. If the thought of organising your church's nativity play strikes fear into your heart (like it did mine), this book is for you.

Relax and unwind in this charming totally renovated 40's style cottage on 7 secluded wooded acres. Stroll the grounds, try a cast or two from the bridge overlooking our peaceful private stocked pond...or take a serene walk through the woods to 3 flowing waterfalls. You might even catch a glimpse of our steathy blue heron.
Luxuriously comfortable furnishings, a wood burning stove, and a nicely appointed kitchen create a welcome retreat to let the cares of everyday life melt away.
Sun or have coffee on the back deck in total privacy with just the squirrels and the songbirds to keep you company. After sunset, star gaze with the one you love or cozy up to the fire pit ...it's all here for you to enjoy!
Pete and I bought the cottage and land that is contiguous to our home and other property in 2007 and did extensive renovations to make it a super comfy and relaxing retreat. Originally planned as over-flow lodging for our family and friends, we realized that the guest house was truly a unique place, that we were blessed to be the stewards of this land and that we wanted to share it with others. And ta-da ...Heron Pointe was established and opened for business in 2009!
Carol Ewing purchased this cottage in 2007
With about 7 1/2 acres of woods, gardens, lawn, wetlands, meadow lands, a huge organic garden open to our guests and the pond, Heron Pointe offers a bio-diverse and super private natural setting that offers luxury, comfort, restorative sanctuary and fun!
The tranquil and beautiful setting set the tone for the entire stay. The warm living room was extremely comfortable and the entire house was well appointed. Upon arrival we were greeted with fresh cut roses, wine on ice and a refrigerator stocked for a continental breakfast. The house was fully stocked with paper products and cleaning supplies for the entire month as well as a garden we were encourage to enjoy. The proprietors were readily available for questions which were few. The location was handy to the Detroit area. A totally delightful experience and if returning to Michigan, I would stay again at Heron Point.
Once again, we found Heron Pointe just what we had hoped for as a place to welcome family and friends. It's just a delightful setting for our Michigan getaway. Spotless, nicely-decorated, and perfectly equipped. Carol went out of her way to see that everything was just right. Of the places we have rented for our Michigan vacation, this was the first we chose to return to and are looking forward to returning next summer.
Our rental by Carol at Heron Pointe was a highlight to our already amazing vacation in Michigan. We were greeted by Carol and welcomed by her and her husband. The house was clean and very well equipped. Carol definitely goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. She had a pack-n-play ready for us with equipment and toys for the kids. The grounds of the house are beautiful and the kids absolutely loved exploring the various activities the house has to offer. Great location near many grocery stores and restaurants. As a frequent user of VRBO, this house was a true gem! Thanks Carol!
Coming from themchicagoland area we were looking for peace and quiet where we could connect with nature and also where we could have access our teenage/young adult children would enjoy. Everything was even more beautiful than expected. Carol has done an amazing job of thinking of everything. She truly treats her guests like family. We loved the back deck lounging, fishing in the pond and using the paddle boat. We saw lots of little creatures that added to the beauty. This place is and these hosts are a special treasure!
I rented Heron Pointe for part of April and the month of May. I am a small business owner and rented Heron Pointe for my men instead of them staying in a motel for a long period of time. The men were very pleased with the accomodations, one even said "they thought of everything." Carol even went out of here way to buy a very nice blow up mattress for one of the men, that was greatly appreciated. After a long day at work it was very nice to sit on the back deck and just unwind without having everyone on top of each other. Thank You so much for letting my men stay at your beautiful place, most people wouldn't do that with there being 4 working men. You took them in with know problem and made them feel very welcomed!!!! Thank-You!!!!!!
We rented Heron Pointe for our daughter and her family to stay near us for the Holidays. It was just perfect! The home really has everything you would need. Very clean, Comfortable bedrooms, a relaxing living room.
The owner even had coffee and brunch there for the next morning!
There are several great restaurants in the area as well as shopping.
Beautiful home. We'll definitely rent Heron Pointe in the future.
Enjoy all the fun of an 'up north' vacation without the drive or the hassles. Located about 45 minutes (or less) from downtown Detroit, Metro Airport, Ann Arbor, Flint/Saginaw (just a little farther to East Lansing!) or just about any metro Detroit suburb, Heron Pointe Guest House offers you total privacy in a luxurious natural setting.
A great rental for football weekends for Michigan State or U of M Big House games!
Elegant shopping at The Somerset Collection and Twelve Oaks Mall. Great outlet shopping too in Brighton or Birch Run.
Other Detroit attractions include the Henry Ford Museum/Greenfield Village, the Motown Museum, The incomparable Detroit Institute of Arts, MGM Grand, Motor City and Greektown Casinos, The Detroit Science Center, The Charles Wright Museum of African American Art and the Detroit Historical Museum.
We're located in White Lake, Michigan on 7 wooded acres complete with a 2 acre pond, 2 waterfalls and all the nature you can handle! Unlike a B & B where you simply get a room, at Heron Pointe Guest House, you'll have the full run of the property...all to yourself!
We're also less than five minutes from Alpine Valley Ski Resort, two all-sports lakes (with beach and boating privileges)and the Highland State Recreation Area. Shopping, golf, quaint towns and fine dining are also close by. Heron Pointe offers a nice balance between fun things to do and the opportunity just to cozy up and relax in an immaculate, comfortable home away from home.
