Former Red Sox CF Ellsbury booed on Fenway return
Updated:BOSTON (AP) - Yankees center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury has been booed by Red Sox fans in his first game at Fenway Park as an opponent.
He did get a few cheers when he came up as the first batter of the game. Then he hit the ball high off the center field wall on an 0-and-2 pitch and was awarded a triple when a fan reached over and interfered with it.
Ellsbury spent seven seasons with Boston before signing a seven-year contract with New York after last season.
He began Tuesday night's game with a .338 batting average, no homers, six RBIs and eight stolen bases in 19 games. In his seven years with the Red Sox, he hit .297 with 54 homers, 314 RBIs and 241 stolen bases.

I am interested in reloading for the fun of it. To start a basic bench, what equipment would I need to be safe. I am not worried about cranking out rounds, something I can do 20 at a time as a boredom killer. I want to put together a list so I can have an idea of what I need to save up to get started.
Thanks for the help. Also, I want my setup to be able to cover .38 spcl, 9mm. .40 cal, and 45 acp for now.

I should have got into reloading a long time ago, I wonder what it costs to get rolling...
The best thing you could do would be to go to the library. Get a reloading book from Lee, Speer, and/or Hornady. The important thing is to read more than one. Read them all the way through a couple of times and take notes. This way you have a good understanding of what reloading is about. I wouldn't do anything until that is done.
Once that is done you will be able to come back and ask specific questions. For equipment start with a single stage press and start with just one caliber that is low pressure. Once you have loaded and experimented with that one round until you feel comfortable, then start on the other calibers.
Priming/Depriming Tool
Flip Tray
Die set for each caliber
Reloading Manuals (several)
Bullet Puller
I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but the above will do for now.
"If you make something idiot proof, someone will make a better idiot."

I would pick up a copy of "The ABC's of reloading" and a reloading manual as well. There all pretty good but I started with Hornady and it is the one I usually recommended. I have found you can never have to many manual's. Keep adding.
As far as equipment I bought an RCBS Rock Chucker master kit back in the early 90's and I still use it today. I have added to it over the years but it has served me very well. Don't be afraid . I and many others have had many years of enjoyment and I no longer buy factory ammo(other than 22) and don't have to worry about shortages like the one we have been going thru. Enjoy and let us know how it go's.
There is a solution but we are not Jedi... not yet.
We have deep thinkers and stinkers in this group that could come up with a solution...
Buck the donkey
I'm a big believer in finding a reloading kit on sale and start with that. RCBS is doing another $50 rebate so if you can find their kit on sale, you'll get almost all the major stuff taken care of in one fell swoop. That advice aside, high pockets list covers the 'must haves' to get started. You'll need some sort of trimming device if you are doing rifle rounds, but his list covers it otherwise.
There'll be a number of things that you'll add on over time, but those will come as you gain more experience and start looking to do specific things differently.
Oh yeah, and as stated, pick up The ABC's of Reloading. Good book.

Get one of these( Amazon.com: Lee Precision 50th Anniversary Reloading Kit: Sports & Outdoors) it has everything you need as far as Press, Reloading Manual, Powder charger,powder scales,priming tool. then you need powder I use Unique for all those calibers.Powder can run around $20 pound
Primers, small pistol primers for everything but 45 acp (they are making some 45acp with small primers so it could take small primers)Primers in demand and prices are all over,used to be about .03 each for winchester/federal primers but expect to pay almost double unless you get lucky
Brass and a brass tumbler with media.
Set of reloading dies for each caliber,I would get lock rings with set screws that way once you adjust it to the right depth in the single stage press you can lock the ring so when you install and remove it you can screw it back in to the same depth every time
The 4 die sets have a factory crimp die I started using after years of loading and really like.there is around a $15 to $20 difference in price between the 3 and 4 die sets with 4 die sets running around $55 each
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
Lee makes good stuff at an economical price that will get you going. There is better equipment, but it's good for a starter. I would recommend other makers' dies though. As far as brands, most are fine and some obviously more expensive. A reloading manual will give you the basics, but a local mentor is priceless.
A powder dropper will speed up loading, but no all powders meter well, particularly the rifle "stick" powders. Handgun powders are generally finer and more consistent.
I prefer beam scales over electronic; gravity always works and never needs warming up or new batteries. I highly endorse RCBS 505 scales.
Reloading is easy and safe, but procedures need to be followed. Check and double check, especially in the early stages. Reloading tables are a guide, not an absolute. Like TX expat suggested, kits are a good way to get your initial setup. Accessories and upgrades are always available.

Get a manual first. It sounds boring, but it is a good read if you are interested. I would look into dies and components first. For me those have been the hardest to find. It is getting a lot better, other than powder. Make a list, from the manuals of what powders work, you will get to experiment with different ones, but knowing what you need when you see it is important. Not all of the powders have info on them. Being prepared when you shop is what I have found to be most helpful. Primer size and powder are the big ones IMO.
Hoping to reload my first round next month, only had my press since Christmas...
"Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt" ~ Mark Twain
Just got into reloading myself, just got setup and been loading about 3 weeks now- its been awesome!! Wish I would have done it sooner, and trust these guys read a manual - trust me, read one now! I made myself finish one before I even set up - it was interesting and I learned a TON, really wished I had already read one or two before I had all the stuff sitting in the basement waiting to be put together.
I had a friend who bought the RCBS rock chucker set up, he highly recommended it, I went on midway and read like 50 reviews and not a single bad review. Got the kit and everything I needed - calipers, digital scale (do like the 505 rcbs beam scale too), tumbler, bullet puller and the dies (just 9mm for now) right under $500.
Now I'm making 100 rnds for $17-19, shooting about as much as I want/can get to the range and the best part is I can't wait to bring the dirty brass home and reload it all over again.

The stupidity of some people NEVER ceases to amaze me.
Best advice I ever took regarding reloading, was from a guy who is reloading for 58yrs. Start with a single stage press!
Im going to be the odd guy out, on this subject. Most everyone else has said "get a press".
I disagree. Depending on your wallet, and what you want to do, anyway. You do NOT have to have a press to reload. You will almost certainly WANT a press, if you stick with it, but you can start without one.
I started out reloading shotshell at the age of 12. My father bought lee hand loader complete kit (no powder, primers or wads, of course), for 12 & 20 ga. Today you can buy one of the very same sets for $30 or so.
They also make them for pistol & rifle. Below is a link. You can get started with one of those sets. I think an advantage to them is that you can take one of those anywhere, and that could be something to have some day.
Like I said, you will almost certainly want to move on to a press, assuming you like reloading. But you can get started, (safely), this way. I did, and lots of others did, too.
I believe in this advice so much, I took it myself. This year, I got into rifle & pistol reloading. I bought a hornady classic press, lee carbide dies (for both 223 and 9mm), AND bought lee hand loader kits for the calibers I wanted, so as to have both ways to load. Dont get me wrong, the press is the way to go, given a choice, but I like the thought of having the lee kits on hand, too.
Btw, I dont think you can have too many loading manuals on hand. Ebay is a good source for old ones, which sometimes have things in them the new ones dont. For example, in a very old one I found an article about shooting wax 38 spc bullets as a way to train, and save money. The really neat thing was that the author actually gave the directions to make your own wax slugs. you dont load them with gun powder, just primers and the wax slug. In the middle of an ammo shortage, I thought that was something worth considering.
Also, dont be afraid to walk into a dedicated reloading store. I did this year. Later I will order most components, but I needed their help, during the middle of a big shortage, to recommend various components.

everything was ok, the apartment was clean and in a good position.
Very nice, clean and spacious apartment. The apartment is near the center, all within walking distance. Nice restaurants in the neighborhood.
We were there with friends and it was a perfect location to explore Prague. Highly recommended!
We were very happy with the apartment. Everything was clean, and modern we also had uncomplicated access to the wlan. The situation was perfect to reach everything easily by walking. We felt very safe in the house and the owner helped us to find a safe parking space. We could reach the owner easily by phone and she always reacted freindly and helpful.
The apartment was good, but there are some disadvantage. The bathroom was very little and the bath was very uncomfortable to enter and for taking showers. There wasn't any microwave as it says in wimdu and is very hot the kitchen-secondbedroom to sleep in it, we have to open the couch to sleep in the same bedroom all four of us.
It was pleasure for us to live in Blanka's apartament. It's near centre in great location. The neighbourhood was quiet. The rooms was clean. We would stay here again! Thank you Blanka :)
Perfect accommodation. 2 good bedrooms with large beds.
Nice living room with 1 sofa and 1 sofa bed. Large dining table and television + radio.
Fine bathroom everything was clean.
Beautiful large kitchen with stove and mircowave. Location is very good in mid-town.
Clear cominicatie by email or phone with owner.
It is highly recommended for 4 to 6 people
Apartment was in a great location and warm for winter. Only thing missing was tools to wash up plates etc. Regardless, we would stays here again!
the apartment was very comfortable, modern furnished and clean with enough space for two persons. Blanka was really nice and gave us detailed information where we can park our car and much more. A friend of her waited for us and gave us the keys for the apartment when we arrived. The apartment is right in the center close to the Wenzelsplatz. Thank you Blanka - we enjoyed our stay in your nice apartment! :)
Nice apartment in the historical center of Prague. Short walk to all attractions in and around Prague. You only need a bag with the necessary clothes and washing utensils, everything else is available in the apartment (towels, sheets. Toaster, microwave etc.). Thank you Blanka for the nice stay in your apartment. We had a really great time in Prague.
We had a wonderful stay at Navratilova Apartment. The Apartment is well furnished and is in a very central location.
The old Town Square and many attractions are at walking distance..
Highly Recommend it...

- You will want to measure your child (bare-skinned) with a smooth tape measure and make sure that the child is relaxed to ensure room for comfort. Get an actual measurement-do not place your finger or give an inch, you will want exactly what she is in inches. If you do not have a soft tape measure, then you can always take a piece of string or ribbon, and lay it down on the tape measure to get the number.
- Chest: Take the tape measure under her arms and go directly over the bust line.
- Waist: Go around them with the measuring tape right at the belly button. Some children have a slight pooch belly, so you will want to measure the widest point of where it sticks out.
- Length: Take the tape measure from the top of the child's shoulder to the floor. You will take the tape measure all the way down the front of her and see where it falls on the leg. For ballerina length, the dress should fall between mid-calf to ankle.
- Please keep in mind that most of our dresses should fall between mid-calf to ankle so looking at the length measurement is important. Some sizing charts are generic ones provided to us from the manufacturer so please look at where the dress falls on the model or mannequin and consider the length it would be on your child.
- If you have measured your child and still have questions regarding sizing we are more than happy to help you find the best size. Please submit an email to our Sizing Department and we will help suggest the size you need. Please note when submitting a sizing inquiry, the information needed is: age, chest, waist, top of shoulder to floor measurement and the wear date. Please note that the assistance you receive should be taken as a suggestion only as the child is not in front of us.
Please note:
- Eligible items can be returned or exchanged within 30 days of the date received.
- Any item that states "Special Order" in the availability line are ordered specifically to cover and fill your order-therefore they are eligible for EXCHANGE ONLY. You may use this credit for future use one year date of issue for anything on our website.

PURPOSE: Excess of iron (Fe) in lung allografts is involved in the pathogenesis of the bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). Fe is deposited inside lysosomes of lung macrophages (LMs). When challenged by oxidants, such Fe triggers lysosomal damage and cell death and promotes inflammation. BOS is prevented by azithromycin (AZM), which accumulates inside lysosomes and interferes with the lysosomal pool of Fe. Therefore, we assessed lysosomal leakage in LMs harvested from lung transplant patients and healthy subjects and tested the ability of AZM to protect lysosomes and macrophages against oxidative stress.
METHODS: LMs were harvested from 5 lung transplant patients without AZM-treatment, 1 lung transplant patient with on-going AZM-treatment and 6 healthy subjects without medications. Cultures of LMs and murine J774 macrophages (the latter pre-treated with AZM or not) were oxidatively stressed by a stable concentration of H2O2 (120 mikroM). Lysosomal leakage, assessed as the increase of cytosolic green acridine orange (AO) fluorescence (AO is released from leaking lysosomes into the cytosol during oxidant challenge), was evaluated at the end of the 1 h oxidant challenge. Cell death was evaluated at 10 h after ended oxidative stress.
RESULTS: LMs from lung transplant patients not treated with AZM exhibited significantly higher AO-values before and after oxidative stress than LMs from healthy subjects. In contrast, the AO-value of LMs from the AZM-treated lung transplant patient was strikingly lower before and after oxidant challenge. The frequency of dead cells was proportional to the degree of lysosomal leakage. AZM efficiently prevented lysosomal leakage in cultures of oxidatively stressed J774 macrophages.
CONCLUSIONS: This study presents evidence that lysosomes of LMs from lung transplants are much more sensitive to oxidant challenge than those from healthy controls.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: This study provides a rationale for the use of AZM to prevent BOS in lung transplants; it is possible that the protective effect of AZM on the small airways is mediated by a protection of lysosomes and cells against Fe-catalyzed oxidative damage.

I think income inequality is the single most important issue of the moment.
I read through the 23 online comments on Sunday's Daily Southtown editorial about raising the minimum wage. There are a lot of people who think poor people are just lazy.
"If you're getting paid $8.25 (an hour), you're obviously in a low or no skill job," one commenter wrote. "If you only have little to zero skills, it's not my responsibility to pay more, just because you screwed up in school or cut classes."
I think eying current events through the lens of income inequality offers perspective about where we are and where we're headed.
Economists have noted for some time...

Fast Jet Boat that took so long
Our last day on Santorini and we awoke to another glorious day so it was hard to leave. After another delicious breakfast served to us by our gracious hosts we thought we'd better have one last walk to take in the views and walk off a little of our breakfast. Impossible to walk it all off. It was tortilla and some kind of pastry as well as grapes and cheese accompanied by the freshly squeezed orange juice and black brewed coffee. We had to be out of our room by ...
Demeter-the Grain Goddess
... The stone path leading up to the temple was beautiful. It was lined with oleander in white and shades of pink, enormous rosemary bushes, and giant blue agave plants. It was a bit surreal when we crested the small hill and came upon the ruins. They were much bigger than they seemed from across the valley. When one thinks of the location of the temple, really out in the middle of nowhere, in current day farmland, it makes sense that it was built here. Demeter is a ...

What was supposed to be the most special day of this couple's lives could now end in disaster, all due to one little slip-up with the mail.
Have you ever sent the wrong text, or perhaps sent an email to the wrong address? Mixing up names and numbers is part of human nature, and we're all prone to error, especially under stressful circumstances.
The story of Keith and Chad from Canton, Ohio starts the same way, but then takes a terrible twist, all because their wedding invitation ended up in the hands of some angry homophobes.

#1 Consumer Comment
Funny how your commentary lacks solid substance...
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, September 21, 2016POSTED: Wednesday, September 21, 2016
In a world and at a time where it is all about QUALITY and not QUANTITY, your comment falls flat and short very quickly, "He runs a small 3 person company than can go out of business any day.". Even if your statement was true, which it isn't, it is the "small guy" who is hungry; hence, willing to do more and do it right the first time. That being clarified, your further statement about "going out of business any day" is also unfounded, seeing as how you lack the facts about who is the financial backer of this company, not that it is your business anyway.
In quoting your villainous vomit once more, "... and after doing some research into them, they clearly show to be unethical and scammers." "Research" you say? True research and the corresponding report of quantifiable results is published in objective and pedigreed media outlets and what is also listed is the precise system dynamics formula indicating the research methodology and the according parameters.
This site implies, requests and recommends that all commentary be constructive and quantifiable via fact shown and/or stated using details... and we are STILL waiting for something of that type to manifest itself from you.
"... unethical and scammers." Do the words slander and libel mean anything to you? I'd be more than happy to educate you!

The Cost of Medicalizing Human Conditions
The Cost of Medicalizing Human Conditions
Menopause. Normal pregnancy. Infertility. ADHD. Erectile dysfunction. Over the last several decades, these conditions have come to be defined and treated as medical problems. They've been "medicalized." In a study, researchers used national data to estimate the costs of these and a handful of other common conditions on escalating U.S. healthcare spending.
The researchers, led by sociologist Peter Conrad, evaluated twelve conditions that had been defined as medicalized by physician organizations, and for which there were current medical spending data. The other conditions considered in the study were anxiety and behavioral disorders, body image, male pattern baldness, normal sadness, obesity, sleep disorders, and substance-related disorders.
Conrad and his colleagues analyzed medical spending on these disorders—payments to hospitals, pharmacies, physicians and other health care providers—and discovered that they accounted for 77.1 billion US-dollars in medical spending in 2005—3.9 percent of total domestic health care expenditures. "We spend more on these medicalized conditions than on cancer, heart disease, or public health," said Conrad. "While medicalization is unlikely to be a key driver of skyrocketing health care costs, 77 billion US-dollars represents a substantial dollar sum."
Although the study did not evaluate whether medicalization is good or bad for health and society, it demonstrates the need for understanding the societal and economic impact of growing medicalization. Conrad explained that some researchers attributed medicalization to the growth of medicine's professional jurisdiction, increased consumer demands for medical solutions, and the pharmaceutical industry expanding markets for drugs. "By estimating the amount spent on medicalized human problems, we've raised the obvious question as to whether this spending is 'appropriate,'" said Conrad.

Welcome to OshoFriends Meditation Meetup in Vancouver/Surrey
We are a group of individuals, who enjoy getting together to share meditation space.
We have found that meditating in a group can be helpful to move deeper into our centre.
We understand that meditation is a knack, and once you get the knack of it, you've got it!
This group explores active and passive meditations devised or recommended by the enlightened mystic Osho. Some of the meditations include: Dynamic, Nadabrahma, Kundalini, Vipassana, Nataraj, No-Mind, No-Dimensions, Kirtan, Sufi Whirling, Tantra, Chakra Sounds, Chakra Breathing, listening to Osho, (Osho Discourses or talks) and Osho Videos of Osho talks.
Events are held in Vancouver, North Vancouver, Surrey and around BC
Regular weekend, weekday and 1 to 3 day Meditation Retreats / Workshops.
Free Library of Osho Books, Audio and Video.
About Osho:
Osho does not teach any religion and does not belong to any particular religion. What he offers is a sense of religiousness - the real fragrance of all the flowers of existence, the Buddhas, the mystics and sages that this world has known. Osho has given thousands of discourses (talks) on all the well-known and not so known mystics of the world—from Ashtavakra to Zarathusthra. Osho is a modern day mystic whose wisdom, clarity and humour is continually touching the lives of millions of people around the world. His insights are creating the conducive atmosphere or "Atma-Sphere " for the emergence of what he calls the 'New Man' or Zorba, the Buddha – the combination of celebration, dance and song of Zorba and the silence, stillness and meditation of the Buddha, where East meets West. Zorba the Buddha is a totally new human being who is an awakened one, and who is life-affirmative and free. When someone once asked Osho the definition of religion, Osho replied: "To be in romance with life is religion." Osho creates many meditation techniques for our transformation.
Compassion, the highest form of love, is the natural expression of this transformation. We can meditate with Buddha, dance with Krishna and celebrate our love with Sufis, and yet be free to be just who we are.

I am an answer to the question that everybody is, but cannot formulate -a question that is more a quest than a question, more a thirst than a verbal, mental inquiry; a thirst that one feels in every cell and fiber of his being, but has no way to bring to words and ask."

Chelsea, who trail Sir Alex Ferguson's side by just one point, have suffered some embarrassingly one-sided defeats there in the past two seasons, being beaten 3-0 and 2-0 on their last two League visits at the champions.
However, Chelsea go into the top-of-the-table clash full of confidence again after scoring 12 goals in wins over Portsmouth and Aston Villa.
It is in stark contrast to United, who lost the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich in midweek and are set to be without top scorer Wayne Rooney for up to a month due to his ankle injury.
Mikel is adamant Chelsea can add to United's misery and secure a first win at Manchester United since 2005.
He said: "It's about time we go up there and win again because we can do it. We can go there, play good football and win the game.
"It depends on how we come out to play and fight because it's going to be really difficult but we're ready for it. Hopefully this time it will go our way.
"We have made it clear that we need to win every match and every game we play is a big one but because of where we are in the League, it looks like we're going to have to win it.
"We have got a very difficult schedule for the rest of the season and it has come to the stage where every point is very important but we have to think about Saturday for now."
Mikel also believes Chelsea will be fresher, having not been involved in the Champions League this week while United suffered a 2-1 defeat against Bayern Munich and face a difficult second leg at home next Wednesday.
The midfielder added: "If you're a professional and playing for a team like Chelsea, you want to play Saturday and Wednesday but it has given time for players to recover and everyone will be ready for the weekend.
"We will have had all week to prepare for the game and hopefully we can come back with three points."
Coach Carlo Ancelotti will have some tough decisions to make regarding who is in his starting line-up for the title clash but he has been urged to keep the same formation which has seen Chelsea return to winning ways in spectacular fashion.
The Italian fielded a conventional 4-3-3, which the club became renowned for when they won their two titles under Jose Mourinho, in both the stunning victories over Portsmouth and Aston Villa.
Significantly, Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka only played one game each, with both strikers getting the chance to lead the line while the other rested on the substitutes' bench.
Ancelotti may only play one of his forwards again and while Mikel is not asking for either to be dropped on Saturday, he said: "In the last two games we have played better football. We have played with width, with wingers.
"It means that we can go through the middle and to the side and score some goals. We hope to continue this until the end of the season."
Captain John Terry also feels Chelsea play their best football with this formation but insists the team will have to be more resolute whatever Ancelotti decides to do in the showdown against United.
The Blues captain said: "The formation suits us a little bit better with the two widemen. Over the years we have had a lot of success with that.
"But we need to be more patient because, at times, we do go a bit gung-ho, especially away from home where we need to be tight, and we need to get resilience back in the side."
Chelsea could have defender Branislav Ivanovic back in the team on Saturday following a knee problem, while fellow defender Juilano Belletti has also returned to training after overcoming a knee injury.

Over two billion people have never heard the Gospel in a way that enables them to understand and respond. The Global Disciples vision is for every person to have the opportunity at least once to hear, understand, and respond to the Good News of Jesus. Global Disciples believes that empowering local people to reach their least-reached neighbors is the most sincere, resourceful, and honoring way to effect this need of salvation in the world. Many of these least-reached people live where traditional Christian mission is severely limited.
Since 1995, Global Disciples has effectively approached this challenge with an indigenous-based mission approach, empowering clusters of churches around the world in close proximity to these least-reached regions to train and send out their own missionaries and church planters. The discipleship-mission training phase (GDT) equips groups of churches to develop programs that train their church members as disciple-makers who can plant churches among least-reached peoples. The small business development training phase (SBD) gives these disciple-makers access to restricted areas by providing them with an economic support to ensure that ministry is locally-sustainable. The leadership development phase (LEAD) trains people of influence as Christ-like leaders who can mentor, disciple, and multiply leaders to meet the needs of newly planted churches. The combined efforts of all three phases of training make up the Multiplying Churches Strategy.
In the past five years, Global Disciples has trained 960 church planters in small business strategies, helped to plant 4,268 churches in least-reached areas, trained and sent out 24,951 disciple-makers, and helped to bring 126,831 new believers into the church.
Global Disciples longs to see indigenous people equipped and passionate to reach those least-reached people groups in the only way that works—in a local, self-sustaining, multiplying model that fuels and grows itself without dependence on Western involvement. Who best to reach those unreached with the Gospel than the community right around them?
Global Disciples works with churches primarily located in the 10/40 window.

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Program 1
GDT (Global DISCIPLE Training) Alliance
Global Disciples facilitates the Great Commission by providing churches around the world with a reproducible and adaptable model of a discipleship-mission and church planting program. Through insight, encouragement, teaching materials, and financial resources, Global Disciples enables churches to start their own discipleship-mission training and sending programs, training church members to become disciple-makers and plant healthy, multiplying churches. Global Disciples is dedicated to local ownership and sustainability; GDT always requires the programs started to provide over half of the funds for their upkeep and training. This means that, in the first year, the churches running a local program provide 51% in local funds of the total program budget, then 70% and 85% in the second and third year. GDT will match this amount with 49% the first year, followed by 30% and 15% in the subsequent years. The program becomes totally locally-sustainable and accepted into membership after its third year.
As of May 2016, 645 of these discipleship-mission training programs are being conducted by groups of churches around the world, many of which are located near people groups that are least-reached with the Gospel of Christ. Out of these, 348 are totally locally-sustainable and reproducible.
Program long term success
Our program growth has exploded in the past 20 years. Since 1995, GDT has gone from 5 programs to 645 programs in over 39 countries around the world. The Global Disciples emphasis on local involvement has not only brought people to Christ, it has given a sense of dignity, competence, and economic improvement to those living near and in under-developed areas.

Program 2
Global SBD
One of the ways Global Disciples works with indigenous churches is by equipping their church planters with business skills and a personalized small business plan so they can enter economically poor and undeveloped areas unreached with the Gospel. These church planters then have the resources and knowledge to join the community, start a business to both assist the economy and support themselves, build relationships, share Jesus, and plant reproducing fellowships of believers.

Global LEAD Alliance
Global Disciples addresses the huge need for Christ-like leaders in all areas of society by working with an international network of leadership development programs that multiply leaders of character with the skills and knowledge to lead effectively. Global Disciples believes that healthy and competent leadership is essential for furthering the work of the Great Commission, and so offers trainings to train church cluster congregants how to be responsive, Christ-like leaders and mentors.
As of May 2016, there are 207 of these leadership training programs being conducted by groups of churches around the world, many with access to restricted areas.

New Spider-Man is half black, half Latino nerd
By Ray Sanchez
New York (Reuters) - Marvel Comics on Wednesday unveiled a new Spider-Man for the Obama-age -- a half-black, half-Latino nerd named Miles Morales.
The new Spidey, who lives in Brooklyn, was revealed in Marvel Comics' Ultimate Fallout Issue 4. He replaces longtime comic-book favorite Peter Parker, who was white, hailed from Queens and was killed in Ultimate Spider-Man Issue 160 in June.
"Going into this we knew we wanted to make a statement about the 21st century," said Marvel editor-in-chief Axel Alonso.
"I'm mixed race. My mom is from England; my dad is from Mexico. When Obama was elected I cried -- partly because he was African American but largely because of the fact that he was mixed race," Alonso said.
"I remember what it was like to grow up mixed race. This is more and more prevalent in the United States and it speaks to our rich cultural heritage."
Like Parker, Miles is a nerdy, awkward working-class kid from the outer boroughs of New York. But Parker was an orphan raised by his aunt and uncle in a traditionally white section of Queens.
Miles' parents -- his mother is black, his father Latino -- are still alive, live in more racially diverse Brooklyn and play key roles in his story.
"Spider-Man is arguably the most recognizable superhero on the planet and little kids like my son Tito can relate to him because of the red-and-blue tights," Alonso said. Continued...

Oral Component
The PSLE oral component is arriving soon and I have been having extra lessons with my P6 students this holiday to train them for the upcoming exam. Here are some tips for P6 parents. Please bear in mind that these are methods that I use and your child's tutor may use a different method. So far, they have worked well with my previous batches of P6 students.
There are 3 parts in the Oral Component for upper-primary English– Reading, Picture Discussion and Conversation
For this blog entry, I shall talk about Picture Discussion as it is probably the hardest of the three parts to master. Three main points are used to grade the student:
1) Interpretation
a) Organized in description.
I train my students to mentally number the picture. For example, Point number 1 is always a general description of the picture. E.g. It is probably a weekend as the zoo is crowded with visitors. Or the shopping mall is clean and spacious. The points that come after are the major events occurring in the picture that the student needs to talk about. By mentally numbering the points, it allows them to connect the important points with one another to give the picture conversation a smooth flow.
b) Able to explain and interpret all situations
I train my students to avoid using phrases and words such as 'I can see…' 'On the left-hand side..' 'behind the boy..' 'in the centre of..'
I encourage them to focus on describing the picture as if telling a story or observing from afar and narrating to a friend who is unable to see. The use of adjectives and adverbs is important and so is giving opinions and predicting the next possible outcome.
2) Language and Vocabulary
a) Varied sentence structure most of the time.
My students are taught to express opinion in a variety of ways and by eliminating the 'I can see…' and the direction –focused explanation, they are 'forced' to interpret what they see with different sentence structures for each point.
b) Use a wide span of vocabulary
Adjectives, adverbs, descriptive phrases, similes, metaphors etc
c) Without grammatical mistakes (requires a lot of training!!! )
Use the present tense, present continuous tense.
3) Response to prompting
a) Responds spontaneously without prompting further
Prompting by a teacher is not necessarily a bad thing. If the student has followed the rules of good Picture Discussion but in his nervousness, missed out a point, a prompt by the teacher is a second chance. The student should respond spontaneously and in an organized manner with correct vocabulary and tenses.

The Kiss 5Mature
When the figure on the screen emerged and kissed him back, he started.
"I'm never ready for that," he muttered, half-pleased and flushing. Enhanced Avatars had been around for years now, but Bertram had been a child of the 20th century decades before the Longevity Vaccine came along, and somehow he still longed for the Grand Antebellum, as the mavens called it. When they popped out of the screen like that, it still gave him the willies.
"Susan," he murmured.
"I'm here, Bertram," said the pixelated figure, leaning back in her chair with a faint smile. She was younger than he, originally scanned from a model in a Penney's catalog, if memory served. He had a vague memory of a pink checked sundress, sunglasses pushed up on her forehead, sandals. Or was that what she had been wearing the time--?
She began typing, probably IM'ing a friend.
"Susan, how far could you come into my world if you tried?" asked Bertram.
Susan grimaced.
"No, it's not that," he added hastily. "Look, what if--what if I told you they had found a way for me to enter your world? To become a fully functioning avatar, unconstrained by my humanity."
"You've always lived in your head anyway, " Susan observed drily. She didn't believe him.
"I'm serious."
She stopped typing and looked at him carefully. That was when the lights suddenly went out, and with a soft zipf the screen flicked off.

- Chocolate Peppermint Crinkles
Place the chocolate in the top pan of a double boiler set over but not touching barely simmering water and heat, stirring occasionally, until melted. Let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
In another large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the eggs and granulated sugar until well blended. Add the oil, vanilla and melted chocolate and beat until well blended. Stir in the flour mixture just until fully incorporated. Cover and refrigerate until the dough is firm enough to shape, at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
Preheat an oven to 350°F (180°C).
If using whole peppermint candies, place them between 2 sheets of aluminum foil and strike with a hammer or meat mallet, breaking them into large pieces. Then roll the candies with a rolling pin to crush them into small pieces. Set aside.
Put the confectioners' sugar in a shallow bowl. Pinch off a piece of dough and roll it into a ball about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Roll the ball in the confectioners' sugar, coating evenly, and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the balls 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
Bake until the cookies have puffed up and the surface cracks, showing the chocolate beneath, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly on the pan and then gently press some of the crushed peppermint all over each cookie. Transfer the cookies to wire racks and let cool completely. Store in layers, separated by waxed paper, in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Makes about 48 cookies.
