First Steps
New and prospective members are encouraged to participate in the First Step/Pastor's Class.
Since the Lord led you into this class, you and I can become better acquainted with each other
but more importantly can study God's inspired Word to understand 3 questions:
- "What is a Christian?"
- "What is the Church?"
- "What is Triad Baptist?"
Therefore, during this class, we will probe the Scriptures to discover how we may:
- Connect to Christ (What is a Christian?)
- Connect to the Church (What is the Church?)
- Connect to Triad Baptist (What is Triad Baptist all about?)
I am looking forward to our time together. I pray that by God's grace it will be life changing
and that you will continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
At Triad Baptist Church we are committed to proclaiming the Truth about God and his word.
We believe that it is our calling to equip the Christian for dynamic service and effective ministry
with the goal of reaching a lost world with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thanks for your interest and commitment to this class. It is my prayer that through your
faithful attendance in this class we will grow together in the bond of love through Jesus Christ.
Unto Him Who is Able,
Pastor Robert Decker

Most listings are in the $10's per square foot per year. The Fife submarket is experiencing a decline in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate fell $4 per sqft per year. That's a 16% decline in rent.
Compared to the rest of the Seattle Metropolitan Area market, the Fife submarket has lower rates, so you should have no trouble finding a great deal in this depreciated region.
In the last 90 days, 5 listings have been listed, which means spaces are probably leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to make an offer immediately. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet posted, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around 1,190 sqft. Most properties in this area are approximately 1 floors. Most buildings in this region were built in 1978 and are Class A.
A large portion of this area is residential, but there's plenty of office_space. Wholesale trade is the dominant industry in this region. Commute by car is the most popular way to get to work amongst Fife folk. Commuting between 20 and 25 minutes a day is the norm for those who opt to reside in this part of town.

text: Linklaters has cut associate pay bands by an average of 7 per cent and slashed bonuses across the firm. Linklaters associates will move up through the salary bands this year, but reduced rates mean that most junior lawyers will receive a pay rise of between just 2 and 4 per cent. The Linklaters announcement means that first-year trainees will continue to receive £37,400. Newly qualified rates fell by 7.6 per cent to £61,500; one year-PQE rates dropped by 3.4 per cent to £68,000; two year-PQE salaries fell by 11.6 per cent to £73,000; and three year-PQEs will receive £85,000, down 6.4 per cent on the previous year. Support staff, however, will not receive a pay rise this year, with rates frozen at current levels, and the firmwide performance-based bonus pool will be smaller than last year's.

text: 160 FNUS21 KWNS 270732 FWDDY1 Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0132 AM CST Mon Feb 27 2017 Valid 271200Z - 281200Z ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN/CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS... ...Synopsis... A mid/upper-level trough will remain positioned across the Inter-Mountain West today, while fairly fast, quasi-zonal flow persists across much of the eastern US. Within the western trough, an impulse and related speed maximum will progress from the Sierra Nevada eastward to the central high Plains. As a result, surface lee cyclogenesis will take place over eastern Colorado, tightening the pressure gradient across much of the southern and central Plains. ...Portions of the southern/central high Plains... Ample west/southwesterly mid-level flow will exist over the region today, such that downslope flow encourages considerable low-level warming/drying to support a critical fire-weather threat from far west Texas northward to southeast Colorado. A tightening surface pressure gradient, in combination with strengthening flow aloft, will support sustained southwesterly winds around 20-30 mph (with gusts up to 40 mph) in the critical area. Meanwhile, despite the potential for high clouds over parts of the region, RH values should fall to around 12-15 percent. In tandem with dry fuels, these meteorological conditions will favor rapid fire spread. Surrounding the critical area, winds around 15-20 mph sustained will combine with RH values around 15-25 percent to encourage elevated fire-weather concerns from east-central Colorado to the Texas Rolling Plains. ..Picca.. 02/27/2017 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$

Quantitative Analysis Lecture and Laboratory: redesigned lecture component of the course with a focus on modern instrumental techniques. Introduced "concept mapping" to facilitate learning in the course. Revamped lab component by introducing several new experiments focused on statistical analysis of data
Introductory General Chemistry: in collaboration with Dr. Nail Senozan, redesigned CHEM 101 (currently CHEM 90) with a general focus on a mole concept and structure of matter. The redesign resulted in significant decline of student attrition in the course with concurrent increase in completion of CHEM 111A (the subsequent course in chemistry curriculum)
Electroanalytical Methods: developed new graduate-level course in electroanalytical methods, prepared course materials and assessment materials
My research group at CSULB was focused on the mechanism of electron transfer through single molecules and molecular nanostructures with particular emphasis on electron transfer through biologically relevant molecules. Our research has been funded by CSULB, National Institutes of Health, Research Corporation, NATO, and the American Chemical Society-Petroleum Research Fund (with a continued external grant support 2002-2014) and resulted in 11 research papers published in major international journals and more than 30 presentations on national and international meetings and invited departmental colloquia at 6 universities and 2 corporate research laboratories. The research papers from my research group were coauthored by 16 CSULB undergraduate and graduate students and received 193 citations in the primary literature (self-citations excluded) to date. Seven papers describe results obtained solely at my CSULB laboratory, 2 papers involved research collaboration with Dr. Jacqueline Barton (California Institute of Technology) and Dr. Michael Hill (Occidental College), 1 paper involved collaboration with Dr. Renata Bilewicz, Warsaw University, and 1 paper involved collaboration with Dr. Young-Seok Shon (CSULB).

Aneurin Bevan: v. 2 1945-1960 - A Biography (Main)By: Michael Foot (author)Paperback
4 - 6 days availability
DescriptionMichael Foot's two-volume biography of Aneurin 'Nye' Bevan (1897-1960) - arguably Britain's greatest socialist, indelibly associated with the founding of the National Health Service - is one of the major political biographies of the last century. It is the life of an inspirational politician, written by one who knew and unabashedly admired him. Volume II, first published in 1973, begins with Bevan's role in the founding of a comprehensive National Health Service - this while he was also tasked with addressing the country's severe post-war housing shortage. It takes in his 1951 resignation from the cabinet in protest at the introduction of prescription charges, and his subsequent leadership of a 'Bevanite' Labour left; his publication in 1952 of In Place of Fear; his service as Shadow Foreign Secretary during the Suez crisis in 1956; his controversial reversal of opposition to nuclear weapons in 1957; and his death from cancer in 1960.
Create a review
About AuthorMichael Foot (1913-2010) was a writer, journalist and politician, leading the Labour Party from 1980 to 1983. His numerous books range from the withering polemic Guilty Men (co-written with Peter Howard and Frank Owen) about the hapless appeasers of the 1930s to his magnificent two-volume biography of Aneurin Bevan.

At a time when the UK economy is stagnating and jobs are a key concern, this was indeed a desperate effort by Cameron to renew economic links with a nation that will provide future opportunities for growth. But as Britain rejoiced over this renewed love affair between the two countries, India's remarkable lack of interest in Cameron and his buddies was apparent on several fronts. While the Indian media was more interested in exploring the rationale behind a down-market reality TV star's failed 2nd marriage, New Delhi put Cameron firmly in his place by turning down a request to address parliament. The Indian public meanwhile couldn't care less. They will probably tune in only when Obama comes down, a few weeks from now.
Yet despite this tepid response from the hosts, on the economic front Cameron did manage to clinch an $800 million Defense contract at Bangalore even as the British Business Secretary Vince Cable announced that deals worth billions of dollars could be in the pipeline as the UK begins to issue licenses to its civil nuclear firms to export equipment to India. On the political front Cameron reiterated his strong support for India by backing Delhi's demand to become a permanent UN Security Council member. And in what was clearly a political statement, he also ruffled feathers across the border by claiming that Pakistan promoted the export of terror, which in fact led to its intelligence officials, cancelling their visit to Britain.
On the flipside though, immigration is still a bone of contention between the two countries, and possibly the most important issue for Indians wanting to work and study abroad. And there clearly wasn't much headway on that front. Also while a few deals have been struck here and there, what's important to note is that trade between the two countries has been consistently on a downslide for many years now. Britain was the fifth largest exporter to India in 2005 but has since then fallen to 18th position and it will take a lot more than 'special relationship' proclamations from Cameron to resurrect that.
This visit of course is a start to what could possibly be a renewed and more fruitful bilateral relationship between the two countries. But more importantly it has been an eye opener to how remarkable the decline of Britain in the average Indians' consciousness has been over the past 50 years. And it's going to take a helluva lot to reverse that.
The tables have turned and HOW!

Grant Park stretches from the Museum Campus at Lake Shore Drive and Roosevelt Road all the way north to the Prudential building, with Columbus Drive on its west side and the lake on its east. At one time, this stretch of land was undeveloped and a prime target for builders. However, department store magnate Montgomery Ward did not want the lake view from his Michigan Avenue office obstructed, so he successfully lobbied the city to create Grant Park. In the summer months, the grounds bloom with rose gardens, and the famous Buckingham Fountain springs to life. The Petrillo Band Shell is home to the Grant Park Music Festival and also hosts such events as Jazz Fest, Celtic Fest and Blues Fest. Perhaps the park is most famous for The Taste of Chicago, a culinary festival which happens every year in late June and early July.
Urban planning goes back to nature in this park that is actually the upper floor of an underground car garage. In fact, the park crams a mini-nature preserve, a flower garden, 12 lighted tennis courts, a skating rink (that doubles as a rollerblading rink in the summer), an indoor recreation center and 12 chess tables within its borders. The plaza is across the street from Grant Park and is just another example of the many "garden spots" in the "City that Works."
Lurie Garden has become a trademark of the city of Chicago. This beautiful park is home to hundreds of species of flowers and plants such as tulips, wild white indigo, calamint, and many more in addition to herb gardens. Another feature of the garden is its shoulder hedges, which pays tribute to Chicago's nickname- 'City of Big Shoulders.' This wilderness in the middle of the city also affords stunning views of the Lake Michigan nearby and is popular for its walking trails, picnic areas and interactive sessions among visitors.
Don't go by the look of this place, though the huge yellow tent may give you the feeling of entering a circus. The yellow tent built on the Butler Field in Grant Park, is actually an outdoor facility with state of the art amenities. The large tent serves as a theater, exhibition center or something or the other throughout the year. Cultural events and festivals are also held here, one such being 'The Outdoor Film Festival'.
If you're looking for a place in Chicago to get away from it all, then come to a place where you can walk down pebble paved walkways, play tennis or just relax under the luscious trees. This is Grant Park. Named after General Ulysses S. Grant, the park belongs to the citizens of the city. It spreads out over 319-acres and has a dozen tennis courts and 16 softball fields! It is also the venue for many local summer events and concerts. So sit by the beautiful Buckingham Fountain, it's a great way to cool off in summer and has a fabulous view of the city and lake.
This little patch of green sits pretty like a jewel amidst the high-rises that surround it. Named after the area, Lake Shore East Park/No. 546, spans just 6 acres (2.43 hectares), but makes up for its size, with beautiful landscaping and natural features. There's a water element running throughout the park, with fountains in prominent places that light up in the evenings. The ornamental gardens showcase a beautiful variety of flowering plants. There's an expansive playground for kids as well as a thoughtfully-designed dog park.
Jutting into Lake Michigan and situated alongside Navy Pier, Milton Lee Olive Park might be a nice place to stroll with a date after a night at the pier's nightclubs. The only drawback is a water filtration plant concealed on the shore. President Lyndon B. Johnson dedicated the park to Private First Class Milton Lee Olive III in June 1966 for heroism in the Vietnam War. To the west is a modest-sized public beach.
This family entertainment complex on Lake Michigan offers all-day fun with more than 50 acres (20 hectares) of parks and gardens, first-rate shopping, restaurants and exciting attractions. Ride the 15-story Ferris wheel, watch world-class performers at the Skyline Stage and tour three floors of interactive fun at the Chicago Children's Museum. For some culture amongst the commercialism, check out the Chicago Shakespeare Theater. During the summer, free entertainment is available on Dock Street. During the winter, rent skates and take a spin on the open-air ice rink.
