Copper Falls to Six-Year Low After Paris Attack, Codelco Fee Cutby and
Codelco's 2016 copper-fee cut in China highlights weak demand
Industrial metals slide, gold climbs as France strikes Syria
Copper fell to a six-year low as commodities retreated and investors bought haven assets such as gold following the terror attacks in Paris. Signs of weak demand for metals in China, the world's biggest consumer, also hurt prices.
The violence in the French capital renewed worries about political and economic risk, prompting investors to buy assets such as gold, U.S. Treasuries and European government bonds. Concerns metals demand is ebbing deepened as Codelco, the biggest copper producer, cut its surcharge for sales to China by 26 percent next year, according to two buyers. The reduction highlighted waning consumption in the Asian country.
"You have a confluence of economic and political influences at work," Michael Turek, the head of base metals at BGC Partners Inc. in New York, said in an e-mail. "Obviously the tragic developments in Paris have caused a capital flight out of metal and into safety. Secondly, collapsing physical premiums for metal being imported into China really underscores how anemic demand is there."
Copper futures for December delivery dropped 2.4 percent to settle at $2.1155 a pound at 1:20 p.m. on the Comex in New York, after falling to $2.1065, the lowest since May 2009.
China is facing an unprecedented drop in refined copper imports as a slowing economy erodes demand, according to one of the country's largest buyers. Shipments to the country will shrink 10 percent next year, Stephen Huang, chief executive officer of trading house Arc Resources Co., said in an interview.
On the London Metal Exchange, copper, aluminum, zinc, nickel, lead and tin fell.

One of the most trill artists in the rap game just got their swerve leveled-up by San Francisco beat producer Blackbird Blackbird. When A$AP Rocky dropped his album at the start of the year it brought a whole new side of hip-hop with beats from producers you wouldn't expect. Hell, even Skrillex was on there. I think Blackbird Blackbird is on the verge of announcing an EP or LP. Back in June he released a new single titled, "Refresh" (read more and download). Since then there were a couple of bootleg remixes but nothing substantial since the single. I'd be stoked to hear a full length from this inspiring artist that seems to create an entirely new sound with each effort. According to Blackbird Blackbird's Facebook he remixed this track because he, "just had to do it". Can't blame him for that. The song is full of off-time and unusual drum bits, shiny front-end lead production and wind-chime sounds that will comfort you from start to finish. Give this new remix a whirl and be ready to press repeat.

Kia Spectra5 ProblemsCheck Engine Light On, Engine Runs OK
The Check Engine Light may erroneously illuminate, signifying a fault with the front oxygen sensor when no fault exists. Replacing the electrical connections at the oxygen sensor with a repair kit available from Kia will commonly fix this problem.
A defective AC compressor clutch assembly can cause excessive noise or vibration when the air conditioning is on. Improved parts are available. Replacing the faulty clutch assembly does not necessitate replacement of the complete AC compressor or evacuation and recharging of the air conditioning system.
Reprogramming the transmission control module with the latest Kia transmission software may fix abnormalities in the automatic transmission and erroneous transmission-related Check Engine Light illumination. Software updates are commonly most effective on newer vehicles. Higher mileage vehicles may exhibit a similar symptom caused by a component failure. However, whenever major transmission repairs are performed the transmission software should be checked and updated as necessary.
Kia Spectra5 Questionsshaking when first turned on/while warming up (1 answer)
77k miles: irregular shaking coming from front of car when first turned on. has increased over past month when it first started. almost sounds like it's surging when it's first turned on, like it can't figure out exactly what speed? to run at.
When cooling fan starts running, loud rattling noise is heard in cooling fan. It sounds like fan is hitting plastic parts or something. Does anyone know why??
Will it fit with little or no modifications needing to be made? If modifications are necessary, what exactly would need to be done to be able to use it? Thanks

Professor Andrew Ferguson published an article in The Atlantic on the joys of jury duty, adapted from his book "Why Jury Duty Matters."
Prof. Ferguson writes, "The invitation to jury service is thus an invitation to understand our most basic national principles. The simple fact is that jury duty is one of the few constitutional rights that every citizen has the opportunity to experience. It remains an American bond. It connects people across class, national origin, religion, and race. Jury experience exists as one of the remaining connecting threads in a wonderfully diverse United States. It links us to our founding principles and challenges us to live up to them. Every time you serve as a juror, you become closer to this constitutional spirit; and every time you reflect on and appreciate these principles, you strengthen our constitutional character. That is the joy of jury duty."

Assassins Creed REVIEWS
I enjoyed this movie and I don't play video games
I watched this movie with apprehension because of the bad reviews by critics. But I did enjoy the movie and I don't even play video games. And the reasons why I liked this movie is because: 1. Action scenes and chase scenes are very good and fast paced. 2. Acting by the cast was superb - Fassbender, Cotillard and co. 3. Visual effects are good.. N...
Thoroughly enjoyed it!
There is a reason I don't pay attention to reviewers before seeing a movie; seems most of them have lost the ability to view a movie without preconceived notions. Too much over-analyzing. Very little of what is put out these days is in any way realistic. I'm not looking for realistic when I go see a movie; I'm looking for an escape from the daily ...
Critics vs Gamer
I'm going to come out and say it, the critics are right, but there is a big but here. If you have played this game, you are going to truly enjoy it. The big problem that I think is not going to brake the video game curse is the fact that it isn't possible to cover the whole story in such a short amount of time and appeal to critics and people who ...
All in all pretty good
Assassins Creed is by no means perfect, but I did enjoy it. The film has the classic setting from Assassins Creed games, a modern day protagonist enters the Animus to relive the memories of his ancestor. The film does a pretty good job explaining the series mythos to those unfamiliar with the games. Sadly, we don't spend as much time with the ance...
An Oversimplified Story Leads to an Uninteresting Experience
Assassin's Creed is about a corporation who wants to unlock history's dark secrets. They plan on achieving it by using a device called the animus that uses the blood of the target's descendant to create a virtual environment of the ancestor's memory. The corporation is run by the Templars and their counterpart are called the Assassins.. Having pla...
Saw an early screening and was not disappointed.
So we all know the trend of video game movies being terrible. Well, I'm happy to say Assassin's Creed BROKE that trend! Really quick one thing to point out is that people complained that the movie was giving a PG-13 rating. This is probably one of the most brutal PG-13 movies I've seen in terms of violence. It was like they were going for an R rat...
Don't listen to the haters/critics!
Following a somewhat parallel story to the original game, I do wish they would've stuck with original characters. Despite that, the film remains a fun and intriguing watch. The change of the Animus from a bed-like system to the VR style arm was something I originally disliked, but that change ends up playing well into the film visually and aids in...
Why are the critics so unfairly harsh?
This is, by far, the best video game adaptation I have ever seen. I do not understand why the critics have been putting down this movie with such violence... Is it because they want to make the filmmakers pay for the fact that they chose high-caliber talent instead of goofy actors and an 'obvious' choice of director? Is it because the producers de...
We Work in the Dark to Serve the Light
Besides a few yearly sports titles, I don't find myself enamored with any single video game series. That is, besides the Assassin's Creed games. The film definitely captured the game's tone, even if it sometimes makes frustrating plot choices.. I'm not willing to say Assassin's Creed breaks the video game-movie "curse" if you will, but it may be t...
Assassin's Creed: A Movie Worth Watching
Despite critic reviews and reports expressing their concern on yet another video game spin-off attempt, I decided to still go view the movie on its first showing. I can honestly say that not seeing this movie in theater would be a mistake. The action sequences combined with excellent cinematography and special effects allowed for a thrilling ride ...

text: Did you head out this morning and pick up the first-of-its-kind Air Force 1 "Foamposite"? If you slept in and didn't hit the distributors early, chance are they're gonna be sold out everywhere you go. As usual though, a couple resellers have listed a few pairs on eBay, giving those who missed their chance this morning another shot at picking a pair up. It'll cost you, but if you make the decision soon it won't be all to bad. The current going price on eBay is $240, plus $13 for shipping, bring a total up to $253 for door to door service. Reasonable considering the retail price of $185. Once these are gone though there's not telling what the price may jump to down the road when they begin to pop up one by one. If you want em, get em now, just don't break out some sort of Shiny Suit to go along with em. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Infant girl found in Bronx home may have been injured by father or 5-year-old brother
A 3-month-old Bronx girl discovered unconscious was found with skull fractures, signs of strangulation and numerous old and new injuries to her head, ribs and legs, sources said Wednesday.
Sherling Camacho was on life support at Montefiore Hospital — and cops were investigating whether her father or 5-year-old brother was responsible for her grievous damage, sources said.
Sherling suffered front and side skull fractures, a fractured collarbone, fractured shinbones, damage to the tissue beneath her tongue, a torn-off toe nail, numerous scratches and broken blood vessels suggesting she was strangled.

We just had a rain storm that washed all the snow away and thawed
the ground. I found a rhizome that has 5 or 6 small plants growing
off it, but the main rhizome is rotting away. If I cut the rotten
part out is there something I can use to treat the raw ends of the
good plants?
I would rather not try potting the small plants as their roots seem
to be well established.
Thanks for any suggestions.

on its way amigo - - thanks for the kind words (those kind words being "more" )
NOOOO!!! its over!! I cant wait for vol 2!! The animation and the voices were timed just right which is a BIG plus!
thank you so much! i feel like an ass for waiting so long on vol2 - -its coming though!
nothing in anime is ever really original, however your take on the usual plot is still pretty good
thanks so much - - many people are making anime comparisons but it's really not as much an animate homage than a 90's saturday morning style i imitate
Despite the cliches, or perhaps because of, I greatly enjoyed this! :D
I particularly like how fleshed out the world is. It feels organic, as if there really is a history to it, and that makes it easier to care about. The characters each seem to have their personality quirks, none being totally flat. There is a variety of music, and the voice acting isn't over-dramatized.
On the other hand, the animation was a distractingly choppy in a few spots, and questionable spelling took my attention off the actual story ("all ready" vs. "all ready"). Still, it's clear that a great deal of work went into this, and the result is terrific. Can't wait to see more!
Also, thank you for using my track!
Thank you so much for appreciate the amount of work - - sometimes i feel like it is so easy for viewers so just dismiss things - but its very nice to have someone appreciate the amount of work - -
and yes it is BECAUSE of the cliches that you like it, thats why i make it.
It was alright.
The animation like it was rushed somewhat and the lines were sort of cheesy (No offence) But the voice acting was good along with the plot.

Key CBAS Program Accomplishments and Priority CBAS Activities for 2017
The beginning of a new year is a time to reflect on what weve accomplished and what lies ahead.
As a result of extensive stakeholder processes initiated by the California Department of Aging (CDA) and Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), the CBAS Branch in collaboration with stakeholders developed the following documents that will guide CBAS program activities in 2017:
CDA and DHCS developed these documents in response to directives by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in the CBAS provisions of the 1115 Demonstration Waiver. Refer to Special Terms and Conditions/STC 44(c) and 45(c) which requires CBAS settings to meet federal Home and Community-Based (HCB) Settings regulations, 42 CFR 441.301(4), and Person-Centered Planning requirements, 42 CFR 441.301(c)(1)(2)(3). To meet the directive in STC 45(c) the CBAS program needed to revise the IPC and develop a standardized Participation Agreement. Refer to STC 49 which requires the State to develop a CBAS Quality Assurance and Improvement Strategy to assure the health and safety of Medi-Cal beneficiaries receiving CBAS. This newsletter provides a status report on each of these documents.
CDA thanks all CBAS providers, managed care plan representatives, provider associations, advocates and other partners who participated in the stakeholder meetings and webinars to develop these work products. This includes the California Association for Adult Day Services (CAADS) who convened webinars and a Pre-Conference at its November 2016 Fall Conference, facilitated by CDA, which generated helpful feedback from attendees on the draft IPC and Participation Agreement.
In 2017, CDA in collaboration with our stakeholders will focus on implementation of the CBAS Transition Plans Milestones & Timelines, the CBAS Quality Assurance and Improvement Strategys Goals, the new standardized Participation Agreement and the revised CBAS IPC. Together we will continue to promote quality CBAS services and CBAS center compliance with HCB settings and person-centered care requirements to meet the needs of CBAS participants.
Information about all CBAS stakeholder activities including the CBAS IPC Revision and Quality Workgroups is posted on the CDA website.
Status Report on the New CBAS Individual Plan of Care (IPC) and ADHC / CBAS Participation Agreement
On January 24, 2017, the California Department of Aging (CDA) hosted a webinar to provide training on the new CBAS IPC and the new standardized ADHC/CBAS Participation Agreement. If you missed it, please visit the CDA website to access the webinar slides. We will post the webinar recording after it has been transcribed to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
IPC Update
The target date for implementation of the new IPC will not be March/April 2017 as indicated in the December 27, 2016 CBAS Updates newsletter. The new IPC is being reviewed by DHCS along with revisions to the CBAS section of the Medi-Cal Provider Manual which includes the IPC instructions. We are uncertain when DHCS will complete their review, but do not expect implementation of the IPC before June 2017.
Therefore, CBAS providers are required to continue using the current IPC until DHCS has approved the new IPC and revisions to the CBAS section of the Medi-Cal Provider Manual. Once approved, CDA will post the new IPC and instructions on its website and notify CBAS providers about implementation of the new IPC via an All Center Letter (ACL) and the CBAS Updates newsletter.
ADHC / CBAS Participation Agreement Update
The new standardized ADHC / CBAS Participation Agreement (CDA 7000) provides evidence of consent by the participant (or participants authorized representative) to attend the ADHC / CBAS center and receive services identified in the participants IPC.
CBAS providers are required to begin using the new Participation Agreement (CDA 7000) for new and continuing CBAS participants as of March 1, 2017, and to replace all non-standardized participation agreements in participants health records with form CDA 7000 on a rolling basis as participants IPCs are developed and reauthorized. Prior to implementation of the new Participation Agreement, CBAS providers must have assessment and care planning policies and procedures in place to ensure proper implementation.
The new standardized ADHC / CBAS Participation Agreement CDA 7000 and instructions are now posted on the CDA website. Please contact the CBAS Branch at the California Department of Aging (CDA) if you have any questions about the CBAS IPC and/or ADHC / CBAS Participation Agreement: (916) 419-7545; email@example.com
CBAS Home and Community-Based (HCB) Settings Transition Plan News
The State submitted Californias Statewide Plan (STP) to CMS on November 23, 2016. The Revised Draft CBAS HCB Settings Transition Plan (CBAS Transition Plan) is an attachment to the STP. Although CMS has not yet approved the STP or CBAS Transition Plan, the State including CDA is implementing the activities and commitments described in these plans to comply with the federal HCB Settings requirements.
All CBAS centers must comply with the HCB Settings requirements by March 17, 2019, and thereafter, or risk losing their CBAS Medi-Cal certification. CDA is evaluating each CBAS center for compliance with the federal requirements during its certification renewal survey process every two years. Regardless of when a CBAS centers certification is up for renewal between now and March 17, 2019, all CBAS providers are required to implement person-centered planning requirements now.
The CBAS Transition Plan (Section 3) describes the process that CDA is using to determine CBAS providers initial and ongoing compliance with the federal regulations during the States onsite certification renewal survey. This process requires CBAS providers to complete a Provider Self-Assessment (PSA) Survey tool as part of their Certification Renewal Application (posted on the CDA website along with instructions) as described in their certification renewal notification letter sent by CDA. The CBAS Transition Plan (Section 4) describes the CMS directive regarding person-centered planning requirements and an overview of person-centered care planning with a link to guidance for implementing the federal standards for person-centered planning.
CDA surveyors will validate the CBAS centers PSA responses during the onsite certification renewal survey visit via observations, review of records, and interviews with CBAS staff and CBAS participants. The CBAS Transition Plan describes the process if a CBAS provider is non-compliant or is in partial compliance with the federal requirements, including the heightened scrutiny process if a CBAS center is presumed to be institutional.
CBAS providers should review the CBAS Transition Plan and the CBAS Are You Ready? toolkit posted on the CDA website to prepare for their CBAS certification renewal to ensure compliance with the federal requirements. Please contact the CBAS Branch if you have any questions: (916) 419-7545; email@example.com.
Status Report on the CBAS Quality Assurance and Improvement Strategy
The CBAS Quality Assurance and Improvement Strategy (CBAS Quality Strategy) is a five-year plan to assure CBAS participant health and safety by addressing the following:
The CBAS Quality Strategy is designed to assure federal partners, beneficiaries and the public that CBAS providers meet program standards while they continue to develop new approaches to improving service delivery. CDA and DHCS will implement the goals and objectives within specific timeframes in partnership with CBAS providers, managed care plans and advocates. The short-term objectives identified in Goals I and II will guide CBAS program activities for 2017.

Upcoming Training Opportunities!
The CAADS Fall Conference provides an important opportunity to learn about best practices, network with colleagues, hear presentations from the State about program requirements, and much more. CDA encourages all current and prospective CBAS providers to attend.
CDA will participate throughout the conferenceduring the general membership meeting; in breakout sessions on CBAS documentation, quality improvement, and the certification process for new centers; and in a plenary session focused on CBAS program and policy updates. Additional workshops will address substance use screening and treatment, person-centered care, quality through marketing, motivational interviewing, the care of persons with Down Syndrome and Alzheimers Disease, the PACE program, mindfulness in improving the quality of life of persons with dementia, and Medicare fraud and abuse.
Pre-Conference November 15th The New CBAS Individual Plan of Care (IPC)
CDA has partnered with CAADS to provide this one-day intensive course pre-conference on November 15th to roll out the new ADHC/CBAS IPC and the new Standardized Participation Agreement slated for implementation statewide in early 2017. A year-long public participation process - made necessary by federal requirements under the States 1115 Waiver and new federal Home and Community Based Regulations - created the need for a renewed emphasis within the IPC on person-centered care planning and outcomes. While many elements in the new IPC will look familiar, fundamental changes in how the IPC is developed to incorporate person centered care principles will be critical in meeting state and federal requirements. Join us on the 15th for this in-depth and timely conversation.
We Hope To See You In November!

Bing has announced a lineup of new features for their mobile version that give Apple's iOS mobile operating system a leg up while ignoring Google's Android OS.
Among the new features:
- A revamped Bing News page.
- A "split view" in Bing Maps that lets you view the map and relevant data (directions, local businesses, etc.) simultaneously.
- Search history and trending topic suggestions during search.
- The option to "Like" an image from Bing Image search, local business details, or an iOS app.
- An automatic app discovery tool in mobile search when using an iOS device. This service automatically surfaces Apple app content based on popularity and allows users to reach the install page directly from the mobile SERP.
You'll note from the emphasis added above that two of these new features are directly relevant to the iOS marketplace; they directly help users find Apple apps. Microsoft has been very direct in stating that these utilities are only available for iOS – and they haven't indicated an intention to expand to other platforms.
This means two big things:
- Google has been left off the list intentionally.
- Microsoft has seemingly given up on supporting apps in their own declining mobile OS (Windows Phone 7).
A Blockade of Partners
You can see Microsoft excluding Google as just a slap in the face, but it's actually something far more significant. Microsoft is forming a blockage around Google in a variety of markets. The first step in this partnership was allying with Yahoo!, creating a network of search sites powerful enough to stand up against Google. From there, however, things have only sped up.
Microsoft moved on to capture Facebook as a partner, something Google hasn't made any progress toward. While Google may cite that Microsoft is willing to give terms that Google finds unreasonable, there's also a clear sense that Facebook has decided to team up against the biggest threat in the market.
Now add Apple to that list. iOS has been suffering in market popularity when compared to Android, with Android gaining more than 5 percent more market share since the beginning of 2011 (compared to 1.3 percent growth for iOS).
It seems that Microsoft, Yahoo, Facebook, and Apple have banded together, visibly stepping away from association with Google. The real question: Will their combined power be enough to break a giant?

Looking for a Used Yukon in your area?
CarGurus has 17,127 nationwide Yukon listings starting at $1,799.
2008 GMC Yukon Overview
The 2008 GMC Yukon made headlines with General Motors' announcement that the beefy full-size SUV would be available for the first time in a hybrid version. That two-mode hybrid-drive model will ship to dealers late in 2007; it's touted as offering a 25% improvement in fuel efficiency, as well as reduced hydrocarbon emissions.
Apart from that innovation, the '08 Yukon continues basically unchanged from the 2007 version. And why should GM tinker with a good thing? The 2007 design overhaul, with its stiffer frame, nimbler steering, and more responsive suspension, struck a chord with buyers. If you want a great big wagon, but don't want to have to wrestle it around turns, the 2008 Yukon may be for you. Its power steering has drawn raves from reviewers and drivers alike.
And the '08 Yukon certainly packs a lot of muscle. With a top towing capacity of 7,700 pounds (with optional equipment) and seating for up to nine adults, this is a lot of truck.
GMC offers the 2008 Yukon in four trim levels: The SLE1, with a 4.8-liter, 290-horsepower V8 engine, and the SLE2, with 320 horses under the hood, are comfortably equipped; the SLT1 adds a number of luxury touches to its 320 horsepower and 340 lb.-ft. of torque; and the SLT2 is tricked out with all the bells and whistles imaginable.
When it comes to fuel efficiency, the 2008 Yukon is on par with the other vehicles in its class: 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway are the EPA's estimates. The Yukon is available right now in E85 ethanol Flex-Fuel configurations, and we'll see how well the hybrid versions perform later this year.

Back with My Heart
THIS IS WEIRD, I know, but I miss Lent when it's over. There is something to what Otis Moss III calls the "blue note preaching" that feels human and humanizing. So much of life is sorrowful. At Lent we can name that sadness explicitly. Don't get me wrong—Easter is awesome. But as soon as it's done and the lilies are put away and the crowds diminish, I miss the strong scrubbing brush on our corroded hearts and the promise of God's unending mercy.
There is a clarity in Lent. Repent! Turn around! Now! This is not at all a negative message. When we repent, we empty ourselves, pour ourselves out, open ourselves up. We are normally so full of self-regard. As a friend of mine says, "I'm always right." What? "I mean, if I knew something was a lie, I'd stop thinking it." Donald Trump couldn't have said it better. The thing is, we all think we're right all the time. Lent says, "No you're not. Whoever you are." Sarah Coakley's work brilliantly has shown the good news of what scripture calls "kenosis," self-emptying. This is a dangerous teaching. Women and minorities and people out of power are often abused by being told to make themselves less. Coakley argues that self-emptying in forms such as silent prayer is actually the most empowering thing we can do. Because then God's Holy Spirit fills us up. Grants us a power we can't imagine. Makes us fully human.
So repent away, preachers and friends. There is no better piece of good news around.
[ March 5 ]
God Tumbles After Us
Genesis 2:15-17, 3:1-7 ; Psalm 32; Romans 5:12-19, 13-17; Matthew 4:1-11
Living the Word: Jesus and His Weird Friends
THE CHURCH'S CALENDAR always sits at odds with the world's. In the world, the season of light is Christmas. And that's long since gone by now. But in the church, the season of light is Epiphany, when God gives us a glimpse of all the strange people who will be drawn to Jesus. We gentiles rejoice. Jesus is bringing all his weird friends over for dinner. So maybe there's space at the table even for us.
Think of every dark place in our world. Every frightened child. Every violated person. Every victim of war or hunger. The darkness growls with endless hunger. Epiphany says this: God's light will shine and swallow up that darkness and make all things into unending day. Hopefully God will do that sooner rather than later—through our efforts, through the church, through our elected officials. But if not, God will bring the kingdom Jesus preached, one day. And there will be unending light for those who've faced the most darkness.
Epiphany is a good season in which to concentrate on the church—Jesus and all his weird friends. The lectionary showers us with stories from Matthew and the psalms and Corinthians about how odd and distinctive this community is. Ministers have the inestimable privilege of serving God's people. What joy! What light! What a marvel is the church of Jesus Christ.
[ February 5 ]
Now and Not Yet
Isaiah 58:1-12; Psalm 112:1-10; 1 Corinthians 2:1-16 ; Matthew 5:13-20
CHRISTIANITY IS A religion of grace. We don't get what we deserve, thank God. We get so much more. And being people of grace, we try to show forth God's mercy in our life together—to show the world it is made and sustained in existence by a good, good God.
Living the Word: The Light Dawns Slowly
GIVEN THAT WE'VE ALL just had a face full of Christmas lights, most folks would be surprised to learn that in the church, Epiphany is traditionally the season of light (not lights—you can put them away). Epiphany is designed to put us in the position of those who first met Jesus on whom light slowly dawns. What? You mean the carpenter's son, Mary's boy? He's the one to redeem Israel and bring justice to every last human being on earth?! There is so much light here it is hard to see all at once. Epiphany acts as a light dimmer, waiting for our eyes to adjust, trying to keep us only slightly uncomfortable, but not overwhelmed.
Some churches have a practice of announcing a sermon series for January that can attract new people—something on sex or politics, for example. Advertise it at Christmas and then deliver with your best in the new year. That's when folks are open to new things, and best of all for us, God illumines us at Epiphany. Learning who God is throws light on who our neighbor is—one in whom divine light shines, who is therefore endlessly deserving of our respect and adoration.
Embrace Church in Sioux Falls, S.D., talks about money in January. It seems suicidal. But folks are financially hungover from the holidays, and need help. And the gospel's words about money are good news all the time, not just in "stewardship season" or at the year-end budget rush.
[ January 1]
All Rachel's Children
Isaiah 63:7-9; Psalm 148; Hebrews 2:10-18; Matthew 2:13-23
NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS don't often last. They are born in good intentions, but we are weak, fragile creatures, and habits are hard things to break.
Living the Word: Extravagant Kindnesses
THE "DOG DAYS" OF SUMMER refers to more than the weather. Attendance in churches is often down due to travel. The energy level is low, with students away and families scarce. The church year tends to gear up with the academic one, to peak with Christmas, to peak again with Easter, and then to peter out into the summer. How do we stay invigorated? How do we energize our faith with the zeal of the psalmist: "Come and see what God has done: God is awesome in deeds among mortals" (Psalm 66:5)?
I challenge churches to do something different with the summer—turn the dog days into an excuse to take risks. "Something different" will differ with context. Try a dialogue sermon. Answer live tweets from the youth. Preach a sermon entirely in the interrogative mood—nothing but questions or one that, like the psalms, is addressed solely to God. Invite testimonies about faith and service. Invite mentors who inspired you into ministry to offer their story during worship or Bible study. With the elections coming, talk about how the church has engaged with politics through history—and don't leave out the bad stuff. Immerse yourself and your community more deeply in the gospel for the renewal of your life together, always an aspect of church and worship.
Summer is often a season of travel and meeting strangers. Remember that Abraham and Sarah offered extravagant kindness when they met three strangers in the desert. How can we become known, like Abraham, as "the friend of strangers"?
[July 3]
A Livable Faith
Isaiah 66:10-14; Psalm 66:1-9; Galatians 6: 1-16; Luke 10:1- 11, 16-20
ST. AUGUSTINE describes breast milk as a sign of the goodness of God. Who would dare say he's wrong? It's so there—abundant, nurturing, creating intimacy. It's like God with all of us. But Augustine isn't being original here. Isaiah is. God is a nursing mother, Israel is a nursing child, and both are happy with one another.
Eugene Peterson has made a career of insisting on the "livability" of scripture. We can do this stuff—with a healthy dose of the Spirit's power. Coastal Church, a Pentecostal congregation in downtown Vancouver, made Luke 10 a sort of constitution for its life together. Rather than preach or protest at people, it has made a point of visiting people's homes (already difficult in an age that loves privacy). They offer blessing. They ask what hurts and pray for it. They eat together. And they speak of the reign of God. The church has grown, lonely neighbors find surprising friends, and the reign is manifest.
Living the Word: The Language of the Market?
MOST OF OUR HOLY DAYS have been colonized. The commercialization of Christmas and Easter is not quite evil, but it is certainly an obstacle to deepening one's faith.
Pentecost, however, we have all to ourselves. No one has figured out how to market it, perhaps because we Christians have so deemphasized it compared to our other great feasts. The Holy Spirit has sometimes been spoken of as the "shy" person of the Trinity. She's always pointing to Jesus. The Spirit is fine to let Jesus have all the attention.
But what a feast to have all to ourselves! One in which all nations are drawn to worship Zion's God. This flood of peoples is long promised in Israel's scripture and is now made good by Christ's Spirit.
North American culture continues to wrestle with racial politics. William Barber speaks of these days as a Third Reconstruction, after prior ones that arrived with Emancipation in the 1860s and the civil rights movements in the 1960s. This Third Reconstruction era includes #BlackLivesMatter, immigration, and struggles for citizenship wrestling against the demagogic, bloviating "No!" of politicians.
In all this, Pentecost says, "Yes." I'm tempted to say "quietly," but this yes is not quiet. It's a hurricane. It's followed by a sermon all listeners can hear in their own language. Even if the disciples can't speak all those languages, God can. God made all nations. God called Israel to be God's light and bride. And now, through Jesus, God is drawing all God's beloved peoples again. The church must show this in our life together.
And (don't forget this!) those from all nations have to die to ourselves and be raised in Christ's image. God is speaking, church! All we have to do is join in.
Living the Word: Easter: The New Normal?
THE SUNDAY AFTER EASTER we all take a breath. We've worked hard to offer our best for Easter. Ministers often have had to preach more than our accustomed once a week. Choirs have gone all out. The sanctuary has been cleaned and decorated and trampled upon and cleaned again. Worship services may even have been lively and full. Now, as the Easter season settles in, all goes back to normal. We gather these Sundays not for spectacle, but for the risen Christ, refracted off the faces of one another.
The lectionary readings send us into unfamiliar territory. During these days, there's not an Old Testament reading in sight—the book of Acts functions as the history of God's faithfulness. Revelation tears a hole where Paul usually is. The gospel texts speak to the unbearable newness of a risen Lord reorienting the world around himself.
In the ancient church, those baptized at the Easter vigil would first be stripped naked before going under the water. They then donned a new robe as a sign of "putting on" Christ—and wore it throughout the Easter season. They went to church daily, learning what it meant to be "in Christ." Had they ever seen a baptism before attending their own? Had they ever shared in Eucharist until they tasted one? I wonder whether the Easter season can be a new normal. Not one where we settle for the ordinary, but one where we take part in the risen Christ's wrapping of all reality around the empty tomb.
Living the Word: Between a Rock and Arising
These weeks are the high point of the Christian year. They are also taxing for those who are preachers. The Sundays seem to come around every few minutes, while liturgies fly at you even faster during Holy Week. All the more important, then, to dine on the Word ourselves, before we feed others from what we're cooking. Thankfully, the church has set aside the richest texts we have to describe the mystery that is beyond describing—that God is in Christ reconciling the entire world. Often we can't even reconcile—piece together—our own lives! Let alone our families, churches, communities. Thankfully, we don't have to. God already has. Our work is announcing what's been completed and enjoying its fruits.
The liturgies of Lent, the Passion, and Holy Week are what seep deep into people's bones. Our words bring to light what God is already doing. Make use of these. Have worship on Wednesday to wash feet and on Maundy Thursday to join in Jesus' inauguration of the Lord's Supper. Do like the African-American church has done and invite people to gather for three hours on Good Friday to hear seven sermons. Gather like the Orthodox and the Catholics at dawn on Easter, light a fire, and have folks process into church carrying the light of Christ and singing. It's a week of revival, as evangelicals put it. God isn't just resurrecting Jesus. God's stitching the church back together—and the universe too.
[March 6]
Dereliction and Duty
Joshua 5:9-12; Psalm 32; 2 Corinthians 5:16-21; Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32
You could live with each of these texts every moment left in your life and never exhaust them. They have an accent on forgiveness, grace, and celebration. This is already odd in Lent—a season in which, traditionally, we train ourselves not to say "hallelujah" so that it will ring out all the sweeter on Easter when our lips curl around its contours for the first time in weeks. Israel's disgrace is "rolled away," as the word "Gilgal" announces (Joshua 5:9). Happy are we when our "sin is covered" (Psalm 32:1), when God is our hiding place. And Christ is reconciling every atom in the universe—and more miraculously still—entrusting us (us!) with God's ministry of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5).
Luke 15 is more staggering still. It is often misnamed "the prodigal son." But as Tim Keller and others have pointed out, it is the father who is most extravagant here. The father, as if he dies to himself, gives the younger son his inheritance. Then, when the younger son returns, the father celebrates with what is left (presumably cutting into the elder's share). The younger son's depth of dissolution would have drawn a reflexive shudder from the story's first readers (Pigs! Akin to, say, roaches for us). And the elder son is just as lost as the younger—he just has a better strategy for getting the father's stuff by dutifully waiting for dad's death. Better, that is, until he runs headlong into his father's rule-transcending generosity.
Living the Word: Why Do Good Things Happen?
LENT IS A GIFT. It is a hard scrub brush for when we're covered with grime that won't come off in an ordinary bath.
Lent is popularly associated with "giving up" things. This giving up is easy to lampoon. When I gave up meat once, a friend said, "If you want to go on a diet, don't pretend you're doing it for Jesus." Lent is a remarkably ineffective season for weight loss. Every Sunday is a celebration of the resurrection, so Sundays aren't technically days of Lent. On Sundays you can indulge as much as you want. It's not the best diet plan. But it does remind us that resurrection crowns every week and so every fast.
Lent is our minor participation in Jesus' 40-day fast, which is itself a participation in Israel's 40-year sojourn in the wilderness. It's meant to be hard (a friend who loves to fast says he gives up fasting for Lent!). In Lent we say "no" to just a few of our desires. This is counter-cultural in a Western world bent on saying "yes!" to every consumerist desire, however bizarre. But these little "no's" are really geared to help us say "yes" to Jesus more. It might hurt at first, especially if we're not used to it, like every good habit. And in the gospel's strange economy, saying no is the way to life.
[February 7]
A Face Alight
Exodus 34:29-35; Psalm 99; 2 Corinthians 3:12- 4:2; Luke 9:28-43a
YOU'VE SEEN FACES shine before. Think of the radiant pregnant woman. Think of a speaker or an athlete or a dancer in a groove, performing like few can. Think of those few moments in life so magical you can't stop smiling.
Moses' face shines so brightly his fellow Jews ask him to cover it. He's in the presence of a light so incandescent it has been known to kill people. Moses' face is like the light of the moon—a reflection of a greater light on which we cannot look directly.
If Moses' face shines, Jesus' whole body shines. So does the mountaintop all around. Moses turns up to join in the shine, along with Elijah, and they discuss the "departure" or "exodus" (Luke 9:31) that Jesus will soon accomplish at Jerusalem.
Living the Word: Is There a Crack in Everything?
THE YEAR IS YOUNG AGAIN. Folks are making soon-to-be-broken New Year's resolutions. Why not preachers? Resolved: Prepare to preach far enough in advance that the Holy Spirit has some time to work with me. Preachers I admire sketch an entire year out in advance. Pastor Ken Shigematsu at Tenth Church in Vancouver, B.C., suggests that we're creative on 10-day cycles. So he begins working in earnest on a sermon 10 days before he preaches it. Whatever system you come up with, resolve not to preach "Saturday night specials." Sure, the adrenaline is nice, but it's as hard to be creative on demand as it is to be intimate on schedule. That way, when you have a brilliant insight you can see that it fits, say, 10 weeks from now, and that insight is not lost if it fails to live up to the demands of a sermon to be preached in 10 hours.
Epiphany is one of our best, most underutilized words. The chapel at our seminary is blessedly named Epiphany chapel. For no actual connection to God happens in preaching without the illuminating light of the Spirit. I like to preach through the old hymn "We Three Kings" at least once during Epiphany. It reminds us who God is: God is born in our flesh, hailed as prophet and as king, and will die at our hands. Especially during an election year in the United States, when many ridiculous things will be said about God, we do well to remember these particular claims about who God is.
Living the Word: The Crash of Joy and Sorrow
ONE OF THE BEDROCK assertions of the Christian faith is that the kingdom of God is coming.
Jesus announced God's reign, and embodied it, and brought it among us, but it is not here yet in full. The world's brokenness and our own selfishness are testament enough that the kingdom is not here in full. But it is coming. And there's not a thing we can do to hurry it, or stop it, or even delay it. We can, however, join in with it. That's the best recipe for how to be a human being.
Advent's reliable annual return is like the kingdom in its future certainty. The blue or purple paraments, the hymns in minor key, the candlelight, the longer nights—they all return, annually, like an old friend. Advent is a season of longing. The church places herself in the position of Israel, crying out for a savior. The hymns express this longing ("O Come Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel, that mourns in lowly exile here"). Some churches have a "longest night" service on or around Dec. 21 for those who have experienced especially acute grief in the past year. Advent reminds us that life is not all cheerfulness, as if we needed reminding. It's also sorrow, longing, waiting, and hoping.
Then Advent returns, ready or not. Just like Jesus and the reign he'll soon bring in full. It'll be here before you know it. And it'll amplify the best parts of human life. It will shear off the worst parts. And it will make the world the one God dreams about.

— Criss Jami
There are two circumstances that lead to arrogance: one is when you're wrong and you can't face it; the other is when you're right and nobody else can face it.
— Criss Jami
May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.
– Edward Abbey

Leadership is action, not position.
– Donald H. McGannon

The reception staff are rude.
Great and comfortable stay. Excellent venue for the conference I was attending. While the room itself was great the overall ambience of the hotel was great. The bar, lounge and dining was nice as well.
We had an amazing trip to London, Ontario and stayed for the first time at the Ivey Spencer. It was incredible! Beautiful accommodation and outstanding staff. We highly recommend this facility to anyone and plan to return in the future. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
The property was park like and very private. The hotel bar and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. The front desk not so much. Our room reeked of mold and mildew, which I have a very bad issue with physically. I asked the front desk if they had any Lysol that we could spray, the response was that they did not and that the hotel wing we were in was old so a mildew smell was normal. We went to the store and purchased Lysol and sprayed the entire can over the entire room, then left for several hours. The room was better but we ended up purchasing a second can and going over the whole room again. After the second can we were able to stand the room. We did not ask for another room because the entire hallway smelled so we did not think another room would be any different.
