How to Create a Dashboard
A dashboard can help you better understand your business, application, process, or any other entity that creates data for analysis. Simply visualizing data is a powerful method to uncover insights, see progress, and motivate yourself–or others–to act.
Creating your dashboard does not need to be complicated. This guide will walk you through a sample project. You will learn how to choose your metrics and collect your data. Then you'll visualize your data and share it with others. The most complex aspects of your dashboard are covered by Keen IO, with a solid platform for data collection and open source code and layouts for beautiful analytics.
Already sending events to Keen and ready to build a dashboard? Click here!
Choose Your Metrics
You might be tempted to jump into making a dashboard before you think about what data to measure. If you skip this step now, you'll definitely need to come back. Knowing what you want to track really is the first step because it informs what data you need to collect. Also, since you'll be communicating these metrics to others with the dashboard, you're placing significance on them. So, you better make sure they matter.
There is no magic number of metrics to choose and it depends a lot of how you'll use your dashboard. As a best practice, one is probably too few, and ten is bound to be too many. Your dashboard should give enough information to be valuable without giving too much to be actionable.
By narrowing your focus, you have the flexibility to show each metric in multiple ways. You can view the total for the most recent period, as well as showing the trend, and maybe comparing the metric to another value.
Collect Your Data
Armed with your most important metrics, you're ready to dive into data collection. In this section, you'll learn a couple different methods for getting data into Keen IO, and how we structure the events you capture. You'll also be introduced to the example dataset we'll use to create a beautiful, actionable dashboard.
The most basic way to load data into Keen IO is to send events as they happen, along with their associated data. An event can be any action such as a click, pageview, signup, or conversion, to name just a few. As a test, you can use cURL, a simple data transfer program built into most operating systems, to post your first event to Keen IO. Run this from a command line (you can access this in the Terminal application on a Mac, for instance):
curl "https://api.keen.io/3.0/projects/PROJECT_ID/events/testing?api_key=WRITE_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"advertiser": "Dunder Mifflin","campaign_id": 2}'
There are two fields you need to fill in from your project page. If you have not yet, create a project, and you will see the
PROJECT_ID listed below your project name. Click the Show API Keys button to display your
Once you've successfully added the event via the API, the Streams tab in your project can show your latest events. Select the
testing collection from the Event Streams list. We named the collection
testing in our cURL command:
curl "https://api.keen.io/3.0/projects/PROJECT_ID/events/testing?api_key=WRITE_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"advertiser": "Dunder Mifflin","campaign_id": 2}'
You can use any collection name you want and it will be created upon receiving its first event. Here's how our example event above might look:
"advertiser": "Dunder Mifflin",
"campaign_id": 2,
"keen": {
"timestamp": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ",
"created_at": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ",
"id": "1234567890abcdef12345678"
As expected, the event contains our two fields that we sent as JSON data. Further, there's a "keen" object with three values. The
id is a unique identifier for each event sent to Keen, the
timestamp is a field that a user can overwrite, and
created_at is the time that the event was created.
Most Keen IO customers use one of our SDK libraries to write events at scale, such as from active web or mobile applications. The data you send can describe device state, visitor data, user actions, or anything you want to visualize later.
In fact, you could send all of those different types of data in a single call, if you wanted. The JSON can be nested, for easy separation. The advertiser data you sent in the cURL call is actually within an "ad" object in the full browser data we'll be using to create your first dashboard. Here's a complete event from that sample data:
"user": {
"device_info": {
"device": {
"family": "Other"
"os": {
"major": "10",
"patch_minor": null,
"minor": "7",
"family": "Mac OS X",
"patch": null
"browser": {
"major": "11",
"minor": "0",
"family": "Firefox",
"patch": null
"user_agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0",
"ip_address": "18.104.22.1681",
"geo_info": {
"province": "Massachusetts",
"city": "North Dartmouth",
"postal_code": "02747",
"continent": "North America",
"country": "United States"
"id": "2c8d9700-d530-11e3-8b2e-0025902d99b8"
"ad": {
"advertiser": "Dunder Mifflin",
"campaign_id": 2
"page": {
"url": "http://funny-videos.com/video/91981717717",
"path": "/video/91981717717",
"domain": "funny-videos.com",
"protocol": "http"
If you have a lot of data you want to load, you can use bulk load data in JSON or CSV format using our command line interface. To overwrite the timestamp, create a
keen.timestamp header for your CSV or nest within a "keen" object in your JSON data.
To save time, we'll use a public version of the browser sample data to create your first dashboard. This sample dataset is based on more than 10,000 "pageview" events, each containing some version of the sample user, ad, and page data.
Visualize with Charts on a Dashboard
Once you've started collecting data, you'll be eager to visualize it in a dashboard. When you choose your metrics, you likely also thought about multiple ways to show them. Your dashboard is where you'll make that happen.
The focus of a dashboard should be the data, so there's no reason to start anew when there are great examples already in the public domain. For this project, we'll pick up a responsive dashboard template for Bootstrap, another Keen IO project. There are a bunch of layouts to choose from and examples to inspire you. To get started, download the zip file from the GitHub repository.
Once you decompress the zip file, navigate to the layouts folder. You'll see eight folders corresponding to the options listed on GitHub. For this project we'll use the two-and-one layout, with two side by side square charts that sit atop a wide chart.
It doesn't really matter which you choose right now–it's really easy to switch later because the majority of the visualization will come from the charting library. A chart can easily be placed into any layout slot, though some orientations may be better than others to show certain types of data. A long or detailed time series, for example, can benefit from a wider layout slot. On the other hand, a pie chart would be fine for a square slot.
To add your first chart, open up
two-and-one/index.html in your favorite text or code editor. Open up the same file in your web browser, so you can get a feel for the layout without any charts. You don't need to create any server-side component to display a dashboard, so everything we do in this guide will be visible on your local machine.
The dimensions on your chart slots will be a little different. Resize your browser and the dimensions will change. These layouts are responsive to different sized windows, even on phones and tablets.
Return to your text editor and find the first of these HTML blocks, about halfway down the file:

You can remove the
 tag and leave that

 empty. Then add an id attribute to the

. The result should look something like this:

The chart ID will be the "hook" we use to tell our JavaScript code where to put the chart. For this first chart, add the following script to your HTML page, just above the
 tag:
var client = new Keen({
projectId: "5368fa5436bf5a5623000000",
readKey: "3f324dcb5636316d6865ab0ebbbbc725224c7f8f3e8899c7733439965d6d4a2c7f13bf7765458790bd50ec76b4361687f51cf626314585dc246bb51aeb455c0a1dd6ce77a993d9c953c5fc554d1d3530ca5d17bdc6d1333ef3d8146a990c79435bb2c7d936f259a22647a75407921056"
// ----------------------------------------
// Sample one
// ----------------------------------------
var pageviews_timeline = new Keen.Query("count", {
event_collection: "pageviews",
interval: "hourly",
group_by: "user.device_info.browser.family",
timeframe: {
start: "2014-05-04T00:00:00.000Z",
end: "2014-05-05T00:00:00.000Z"
client.draw(pageviews_timeline, document.getElementById("chart-01"), {
chartType: "areachart",
title: false,
height: 250,
width: "auto",
chartOptions: {
chartArea: {
height: "85%",
left: "5%",
top: "5%",
width: "80%"
isStacked: true
// ----------------------------------------
// End sample one
// ----------------------------------------
// ----------------------------------------
// Sample two
// ----------------------------------------
// ----------------------------------------
// End sample two
// ----------------------------------------
// ----------------------------------------
// Sample three
// ----------------------------------------
// ----------------------------------------
// End sample three
// ----------------------------------------
projectId and
readKey values are based on the sample dataset discussed previously. When you incorporate your own data, you'll want to replace these with your own
projectId and
readKey from your Keen IO project page. If you have a common set of queries that you run, you can use the Explorer to copy and paste the javascript code for these queries and plug them right into your dashboard!
Run a query on your data in the explorer, click the
</> button to see the Javascript for it!
For this example project, the only thing you may need to change is to replace "chart-01" with the ID you used in your HTML. While the rest may look like a lot of code, there are just a couple of calls required to create this first chart: initialize the client variable, describe the query to get the data, and then describe the chart to draw.
In this first example, we are showing an area chart of pageviews per browser over each hour of a 24 hour period. There are a number of other options described in the Visualize section, but we'll use two more for the subsequent charts.
Back to the JavaScript portion of your HTML file, add the following in the section prepared for sample two:
// ----------------------------------------
// Sample two
// ----------------------------------------
var pageviews_static = new Keen.Query("count", {
event_collection: "pageviews",
group_by: "user.device_info.browser.family",
timeframe: {
start: "2014-05-01T00:00:00.000Z",
end: "2014-05-05T00:00:00.000Z"
client.draw(pageviews_static, document.getElementById("chart-02"), {
chartType: "piechart",
title: false,
height: 250,
width: "auto",
chartOptions: {
chartArea: {
height: "85%",
left: "5%",
top: "5%",
width: "100%"
pieHole: .4
// ----------------------------------------
// End sample two
// ----------------------------------------
Like sample one, this is showing browser pageviews. However, this extends to five days worth of data, but uses a per-browser total, rather than slicing by the hour. And instead of an area chart, this is displayed as a pie chart.
As with the previous example, you may need to change the "chart-02" if you altered the

 ID.
To close out the sample charts, paste the following in the section prepared for sample three:
// ----------------------------------------
// Sample three
// ----------------------------------------
var impressions_timeline = new Keen.Query("count", {
event_collection: "impressions",
group_by: "ad.advertiser",
interval: "hourly",
timeframe: {
start: "2014-05-04T00:00:00.000Z",
end: "2014-05-05T00:00:00.000Z"
client.draw(impressions_timeline, document.getElementById("chart-03"), {
chartType: "columnchart",
title: false,
height: 250,
width: "auto",
chartOptions: {
chartArea: {
height: "75%",
left: "10%",
top: "5%",
width: "60%"
bar: {
groupWidth: "85%"
isStacked: true
// ----------------------------------------
// End sample three
// ----------------------------------------
Here we are querying hypothetical advertisement impressions over a one day period, with hourly slices all grouped by advertiser. This is very similar to the query in sample one, but here the data is visualized as a column chart instead.
Load up your HTML file with these three samples and you have your first complete dashboard. Now might be the time to get back to the collect your data section and replace this data with your own. Then it's time to get this dashboard in front of the people who need to see it.
Share with Your Team
Once you have metrics that are the drivers of your business or otherwise help you better understand your customers, you want to make sure everyone in the company has access to the insights displayed in your dashboard. There are endless ways you can share your dashboard, but here are a few with varying levels of publicity and shareability.
Since the dashboard is a simple HTML page that does not need a server, it can be stored anywhere. In this guide, we simply used the page on your local computer. If you expect the dashboard will not change much and won't need a wide audience, you could simply keep it on your desktop and email it as an attachment. While that is the simplest method and will always have the latest data, you won't be able to change the metrics in the dashboard without redistributing the file.
Another option is to use a file syncing service and share the file that way. Whenever you make a change to your version of the file, that change would be propagated to anyone with access.
A more advanced option would be to include the dashboard in an existing intranet, so anyone who logs in would be able to see the metrics that you've deemed most important. Other similar locations are an administrative panel of a website, or in a password-protected directory on a website.
Some dashboards, such as those for open source projects, can be public. In that case, GitHub Pages could be good location for simple hosting of your dashboard.
The important part here is to make this dashboard visible to those who need to see it and take actions based on what they see. If you're able, make sure it's somewhere that can be easily-updated, so that everyone always has access to your latest insights.
Example Dashboards
If you need some inspiration, consider these examples:

I've been asked to repost this piece. I worry about the motives of the person who made the request… but the topic amuses me, so why not.
Okeydoke. When the book of Revelation refers to the number of the Beast (which Christians popularly call the Antichrist), it's referring to the Hebrew practice of gematria. This is where you calculate the numerical value of a letter or word. Before Arabic numerals were invented (by the Hindus, of course), if you wanted to indicate numbers you had to make do with your alphabet. Hence Roman numerals, with all its Is and Xs. Or in the case of Hebrew-speakers, they just gave each letter in the alphabet a value. Alef is one, bet is two, gimel is three, up till ten. Then kaf is 20, lamed is 30, and so on till 100. Then resh is 200, and so on till we're out of letters.
Why did the Hebrews practice gematria? They thought it was cool. It was like your lucky number. There were some Jews who took it a few steps further: In the practice of Kabbalah, if any word has the same number as any other word, you can swap 'em. Hence Kabbalists can discover all kinds of "secret" messages and interpretations in the bible, because they can change words. Or they can treat the text of the bible as a giant Word Find game and go hunting for bible codes. These are of course illegitimate uses of gematria. There aren't many legitimate uses. Some would argue Antichrist-hunting isn't legitimate either.
But let's do it anyway. 'Cause every year, you get one fool or another who claims this candidate or that is probably the Antichrist. Based on what? Based entirely on their own personal politics. They don't like that politician, and can't understand why so many others do, so they claim the candidate is liked or beloved because they're taking advantage of some supernatural distortion field that tricks people into liking them. It's because of devilish charisma. It's because they're the Antichrist.
Well, John provided us a basic test that proves or disproves it. Whoever the Beast is, the name of that individual is gonna add up to 666. (Or, in some ancient copies of Revelation, 616. Unless 616 is the correct number and 666 is the typo. I doubt it though.)
Pick a candidate, like Mitt Romney. I prefer using full names, since dropping the middle names (or in Romney's case, his first name, Willard) usually produce too low of a number. Next, convert it to Hebrew. (How? Find out how the Israeli press spells it. Or plug it into Google Translate, which tends to base its translations on how it commonly appears on the Internet.) Then add up the numerical value of the letters. You can use a gematria calculator, 'cause they have those on the Internet, or you could do it yourself. Either way, here's what you get.
|Hebrew letter
|running total
…Well, that's interesting.
Still, 616 is a textual variant. We hope.
Years ago I had a student who was scared to death that she was the Antichrist. I have no idea where she got the idea. Probably she had been a little anti-Christian at some point, and someone accused her of anti-Christlike behavior, and she had reinterpreted this into Antichrist. Or someone, fed up with her rambunctiousness, had called her a little devil or a little Antichrist, and it stuck in her psyche. People gotta be careful with impressionable kids. Still, this idea was wedged in her head pretty good, and it bugged her. As it would anyone, if you believed you were on the losing end of the End Times and were headed to hell.
Lucky for her I knew about gematria. So I explained it to her: The reason John had referred to the Beast's number is so if we ever encounter someone who'd make a really good Antichrist candidate, we have a checksum.
Now it may be that the checksum is meant to be done with the Greek alphabet. It's entirely possible; the Greeks did the same as the Hebrews in converting their letters into numbers. And of course Revelation was written in Greek to Greek-speakers. However, deducing the number of a person's name is, in ancient literature, purely a Hebrew thing. The Greeks didn't care.
To alleviate the fears of this student, I wrote out her full name in Hebrew, then put the number-values to the letters, then added 'em up. Lo and behold and no surprise, it wasn't even close. "You are definitely not the Antichrist," I told her.
"But what if I get married and change my last name?" she fretted.
"Won't make any difference," I pointed out. "Between your first and middle names, you're over 700. Change your last name to whatever you want."
Huge relief on her part. She wasn't going to hell! …Well, provided she displays the appropriate fruit of the Spirit that indicates God has saved her, but at least we don't have to worry about her leading the armies of Armageddon, or anything like that. Not, between y'all and me, that she really had the aptitude for leadership at that particular time. But who knows? Things change. Someday, with effort, if she applies herself, she could lead the armies of the damned. But I doubt it.
Anyway, for all those folks who are paranoid that they're the Antichrist, or that someone they know is the Antichrist, I usually shut up all the Antichrist-talk by telling them to add up the name. And if you want to be paranoid, go ahead and add up nicknames, maiden names, last names only, or any combination, just to be on the safe side. Certain final forms of letters also play with the number-count: The last K, M, N, F/P, and TS/CH in a word use a slightly different letter, and therefore have a different number value. So I let 'em try it twice with the regular form and the final form. But however they juggle the numbers, they never get 666. So it usually quiets them. And then we can get to the real issues of a campaign. (Well, closer to them anyway.)
What if you find some politician whose name does total 666? Simple: Start telling people. The Associated Press will likely pick up the story and spread it around: Skeptics will bring it up out of amusement, and the fearful will bring it up out of panic. It'll likely wreck that politician's career. Which isn't fair to any politician whose number is 666 and honestly isn't the Beast, but sometimes life sucks like that.
In any case do not start up any of that Left Behind or Omen crap where you conspire to kill the Antichrist. I know the Dispensationlists claim to have the End Times all figured out, but they don't. For them the Antichrist's assassination and resurrection is part of most of their End Times timeline, so if you do kill the Antichrist, and they're actually right, he'll just rise again, and you've fulfilled the End Times, and are screwed. But what's more likely is you've just murdered a politician out of religious paranoia, which has no relation to Christianity whatsoever, and you're not winning any prize from Jesus for that. The checksum isn't so you know who to kill: It's so you know who to look out for. Don't vote for him. But don't shoot him.
If your totals 666, relax. Statistically, it's not impossible. Just remember that you have free will. You don't have to be an antichrist if you don't want to. Confess Jesus as Lord, make that relationship nice and obvious, and you can spend the rest of your life having a chuckle about your unfortunate number. (And be on the lookout lest some religiously paranoid person tries to shoot you.) But try to hide it, and it'll come out. Try to take any positions of authority, and people are always gonna wonder about you.
No, I'm not kidding about Romney's name adding up to 616. I did joke around some months ago with friends about what Newt Gingrich's name adds up to, but in his case (adding up the full Newton Leroy Gingrich) we get 2,213. And in case you were wondering, Barack Hussein Obama is 1,150, Richard John Santorum is 2,145, and Ronald Ernest Paul is 627. Yes, Paul's number is closer, but it's not the number of the Beast. It's only the neighbor of the beast.
But when, out of curiosity, I added up Romney's name, this is what I got. Which shocked them. As it may you. But remember: Textual variant.
…Ah well. It's only a matter of time before one of the other campaigns gets ahold of this and plays merry hell with it.

I'm sure we will be back sometime."

Dark Souls and Zelda are two of those opposing franchises which go remarkably well together. Despite obvious thematic differences, level structures and an approach to boss battles, the world-building, quest and inventory similarities are undeniable. As such, it was only a matter of time before someone tried to create a lovechild of these two franchises.
Best known for their work on Shadowrun, Harebrained Schemes' project here is ambitious to say the least. Both much more costly and directly action orientated as opposed to the Shadowrun series, it is clearly challenging for the developer. On the positive side, the basic skeleton of a roguelike Dark Souls esque game has been nailed. Retaining the stamina meter but focusing upon much more mobile combat, it keeps what works but ensures it retains its own identity. What's more, the semi-cel-shaded designs allow it to retain a true sense of wonder as you traverse through the randomly generated environments. With no end of secrets or foes, you can spend hours at a time on a single area. The items themselves are plentiful; both from fallen foes and hidden chests, and the sheer variety of weapons will satisfy all comers.
Sadly however, there's more bad than good here. For starters, the game is vastly harder in single player than in co-op. While friends can resuscitate allies upon falling, dying on your lonesome means requires you to start over from square one. This puts a serious damper upon the Dark Souls "die and learn" approach, forcing players to cycle through the same content over and over again. Such problems are only made far worse thanks to the game obfuscating certain details surrounding weapons and adding some rather unfair RNG moments like items which might kill the user upon being equipped.
Even without these issues, there are an unusually high number of circumstances which can slay a player at random. Enemies can spawn in anywhere in force, meaning an unlucky player might clear a room only to run into a mob of foes teleporting in seconds later. Such hordes can be impossible to stop thanks to a few bugs surrounding problematic invincibility frames, items disappearing and even players falling through the world. Such issues are hardly a fun thing to have in a game which is already intentionally unfair.
Overall, Necropolis is a rough-hewn diamond of the roguelike genre. It has a glimmering core and plenty of potential, but it's evidently unfinished and extremely jagged about the edges. While you would do well to keep an eye on this one in months to come, and co-op mode is well worth your time, you might want to wait for a few patches before picking this one up.

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. – The Merrimack College women's volleyball team enters the 2013 season with high hopes for a successful season and all eyes set on a return to the Northeast-10 Championships for the first time in three seasons.
The Warriors return 10 members from a 2012 squad that posted a five-win turnaround from 2011, and will look to a number of seasoned veterans to continue that improvement this fall. The Navy and Gold will face a challenging slate that starts with a trip to Texas to face some of the top competition in the country before returning to in-region and in-conference action through the remainder of the year.
Anchored by juniors Corrine Gosselin (Lawrence, Mass.) and Stephanie Sheehan (Smithtown, N.Y.), as well as sophomore Madison Burke (San Jose, Calif.), as well as one of the top recruiting classes ever landed by third-year head coach T.J. Hajjar, the Warriors' hopes have never been higher for the upcoming campaign.
After losing their starting setter from last season, the Warriors will be looking to their veteran setter Allison Cote (Chelmsford, Mass.) to help lead the team to a Northeast-10 Championship. Cote had a tremendous last season ranking second on the team in assists and third in digs. Freshmen Tara Stuhr (Huntington Beach, Calif.) and Madison Creighton (Carlisle, Mass.) hope to make an impact off the bench at the setter position.
Burke's offensive options will include three top returners, Stephanie Sheehan (Smithtown, N.Y.), Jackie Jones (Amherst, N.H.), and Aliya Winker (Arlington, Va.). Sheehan finished third in the Northeast-10 Conference in kills per set (3.38)and also finished second on the team with 288 digs.
The Warriors' second returning outside hitter, Jones, will also be a key contributor at the net. She ranked fourth on the team with 156 kills and 15 service aces. Finally, Winker, posted 42 kills, 11 assists, and 18 blocks last season. Looking to make an impact in their first season, freshmen Juliette McCall (Torrance, Calif.), Jocelyn McLain (Fort Collins, Colo.), and Jennifer Cain (Melrose, Mass.).
A team's defense often starts at the net with the middle blockers and leading the Warriors in the middle this season will be junior Corrine Gosselin (Lawrence, Mass.). Last year, she ranked second on the team in blocks and third in kills. She continued to improve in the offseason and should again be a force at the net in 2013.
Sophomore Katie Cronin (Methuen, Mass.), will also be a key component to the Warriors' success in the blocking department. To help anchor the Warriors' backrow defensively will be sophomore Madison Burke (San Jose, Calif.). She finished her first campaign averaging a team-high 3.91 digs per set while playing in a team-high 113 sets.
Junior Taciane Santos (Everett, Mass.) is expected to continue her role as the team's defensive specialist this season. Returners Katie Wilcox (Pembroke, Mass.) and Hannah Pavlik (Monument, Colo.) will bring additional experience to the defensive end this season.
The Warrior's season officially opens on Friday, September 6 when they travel to Texas to attend the Hilltopper-Rattler Classic. First match is set for 2 p.m. against St. Edwards and 6 p.m. vs. Adams State.

I have downloaded Gnome Desktop Environments with Components in the Ubuntu 12.04 Software Manager, on reboot I still get a Unity desktop with no login menu. I have also tried:
with the same results. Do I need to do something to initialize it to get it running? I have looked around and can only find answers on how to install it, nothing to address if it doesn't start after reboot.Code:sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
It also doesn't show up in the Dash Home or Unity menu bar. Not sure if it's supposed to, but thought i'd mention it.
Thank You.

Sermon Outline On Luke 24:1-12
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " Then they remembered his words. When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles. But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense. Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.
'I just want to know what counts.' Deep Irish brogue. Dark, deep eyes. The statement was sincere. 'Don't talk to me of religion, I've been down that road. And please, stay off theology. I have a degree in that. Get to the heart of it, okay? I want to know what counts.'
That is how Max Lucado describes his encounter with Ian, a student at a Canadian university where Max was visiting.
'I grew up in the church,' Ian explained. 'I wanted to go into the ministry. I took all the courses, the theology, the languages, the exegesis. But I quit. Something just didn't click.'
He summarized his frustration with one question. 'What really matters? What counts? Tell me. Skip the periphery. Go to the essence. Tell me the part that matters.'
Lucado then shares that it was years later before he was certain about what he should have shared that day. He refers to the words of Paul in 1Corinthians 15: 3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
'First importance,' Lucado stresses, 'First importance.' And then Paul writes:
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 1 Cor. 15:3-5
'There it is. Almost too simple. Jesus was killed, buried, and resurrected. Surprised? The part that matters is the cross. No more and no less.' so Max says. It's the cross. That's what matters. Lucado describes it as 'history's hinge.'
A hymn that sheds light on this mystery is a favorite of mine. I never remember it is my favorite until I sing it. Then I come to the last words of the second verse:
from my stricken heart with tears / two wonders I confess:
the wonders of redeeming love / and my unworthiness.
Did you see the B. C. comic strip this past Friday? Peter (the B.C. comic character) is sitting and says to his friend, 'I hate the term '˜Good Friday."
'Why?' is the response.
'My Lord was hanged on a tree that Friday.'
'If you were going to be hanged on that day, and he volunteered to take your place, how would you feel?
'Have a nice day.'
Max tells us that, 'being religious without knowing the cross is like owning a Mercedes with no motor. Pretty package, but where is your power?'
We Protestants prefer the empty cross as our symbol as opposed to the crucifix with Jesus hanging there. We say with resurrection the cross is empty, BUT I suggest to you that the cross is empty without resurrection. In other words, it is resurrection that brings power to the cross.
Let's take a moment to look at Luke's unique view of the resurrection that brings power to the cross. His account of that first Easter morning begins with they came to the tomb, they prepared, they found the stone rolled away, they did not find the body, they were perplexed. We are five verses into the telling when we learn that the they are women. The women are frightened by two men dressed in dazzling white, who are later identified as angels.
They said to the women, 'Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen.' Jesus has risen! He is alive! He is risen!
Listen closely now to what the angels say next. They say, 'Remember how he told you…The angels are saying to these women that Jesus spoke these words to them. Jesus said to them, 'the Son of Man must be handed over to sinners, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.' Sounds rather creedal, doesn't it? '…and in Jesus Christ, his only son our Lord. Who was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried. The third day he arose from the dead…
Luke tells us they remembered and they returned to tell the eleven and all the rest. In the Acts of the Apostles we learn that there are at least 120 followers of Jesus by the time of his resurrection. Following this resurrection account, Luke tells us of two other followers of Jesus who are walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus.
Did you notice what just happened here? Luke treats his accounting a little differently. Several women go to the tomb. We are given the names of three and then told 'other women.' Fred Craddock points out that these women are NOT treated like messengers. Rather they are treated as disciples. They are not given instructions to go and tell the disciples. These disciples who are women hear, remember and go to tell all the other disciples. They have seen the empty tomb, and they go to share the good news.
The other disciples hear the report of the empty tomb. Luke says these words seemed like idle talk. They cannot believe what they are hearing. If we are honest we would agree even today. It sounds too good to be true. Even to this day it seems unbelievable. Grace, the unmerited, unconditional love of God, sounds unbelievable.
God would love them that much. God would love you and me that much. Paul would later remind us that it is by grace that we are saved through faith.
In a devotional written for this day, Barbara Brown Taylor writes 'He is risen. Believe that and the rest will take care of itself.'
Peter told the early Christians, 'God in God's great mercy has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus.' 1Peter 1:3 But on that first Easter morn, Peter did not believe what he was told. He had to go see for himself. Peter went to the tomb. He experienced for himself the empty tomb. The scripture says, 'he went home, amazed at what had happened.'
Resurrection is what brought power to the cross! Jesus death on the cross could only mean forgiveness and hope for us when the tomb was empty. Without resurrection the world would have thought a fool died for nothing. Ian wanted to know, 'What really matters?' Max Lucado's answer'" the cross.

"I ordered 3 Halloween hampers & was amazed at how wonderful they were. I am in London/UK & ordered them for delivery into the USA... the whole process & delivery went without a problem. Thank you so much!"
Maria Yianni - London, UK - Dec 18, 2012
"My son and two granddaughters live in Singapore. My son teaches school there. When he first went there, I sent a "have a great school year" basket. It has become a tradition to do this-over 10 years, now. The place where I usually go to send my son's annual ''have a great school year'' basket, told me they could not do it any more. I was frustrated, to say the least. I don't ''do'' computers-except what I HAVE to. But, I typed in-send a fruit basket to Singapore...this place is what I chose. I am SO glad I did. The communication was pleasant/professional, the basket was sent expediently, and it had all the things that were suggested. My son LOVED his ''have a great school year'' basket. I am extremely pleased with Giftbasketsoverseas, and shall use them again."

This parish NEEDS TO BE PUT UNDER THE INTERDICT. Total ban on all the sacraments until it straightens out. Period.
How does a 2 member organization make a 'press release'? It's not even an official organization! Were you or I to do that, the press would not take us seriously. The media is equally culpable in keeping the pot stirred.
I agree completely. It's not like interdict has been removed from the list of canonical penalties or anything. Canon 1374 seems to apply to the situation, prescribing an interdict for promoting or directing an association that seeks to plot against the Church.
I remember reading the St. Pius X put a whole town under interdict simply for treating its bishop with insult. How much more deserving of interdict is this parish? It probably ought to be razed to the ground and the whole site exorcized.
sounds good to me. shouldn't bother them either, since they are clearly embarassed by the Catholic faith and went ahead and made up their own.

"I thought we had been mentally up for four, five weeks in a row," Wulff said in a postgame interview with the Spokesman-Review. "We had been playing that way. Today, we weren't."
SO WAS IT heatstroke that had dead Cougar carcasses scattered around the terrain?
Or maybe fatigue?
"This is a tired team," said former WSU coach and color commentator Jim Walden in his postgame radio show. "I don't want to make excuses, but this is our ninth week in a row."
Yes, the Cougars got screwed when they got a schedule that included no byes for 11 staright weeks. The Pac-10 would never have done that to USC. Or UCLA. Or, hell, anybody else. But at the same time, one would think that the team would be tired of losing, not in need of a glass of warm Tang and a soft pillow once they arrive back in Pullman.
"It's clearly our worst performance of the year," Wulff said in a postgame interview with The Kitsap Sun. "We didn't do anything right."
Well, except make that statement.
WULFF SAID HE wasn't totally sure heading in his team wouldn't stumble in the wake of three consecutive losses to ranked teams. After all, a fair amount of speculation was cropping up that this could be the week Washington State broke through with a win. ASU had just been blown out by Cal the week before.
"It's possible," he had said of a potential letdown. "I don't think it will happen but I'm not saying it couldn't happen, it could. But right now each day our focus is on moving forward."
Now, he needs to focus on moving way forward. WSU can't play like this next week when it hosts California. Or against Oregon State. Or against Washington. Because if they do, any gains that had come before start to disappear from fans' minds.
The Cougars' 28-point deficit going into halftime was the largest of the year. The shutout was the first of the season -- for both teams.
"I'm not surprised that it happened," Walden said. "I'm disappointed it happened."
So how exactly did the Cougars manage to only produce eight rushing yards?
IT STARTED WITH poor play on the offensive line. And a even poorer performance by the running backs. Junior Logwone Mitz led the team with 16 total rushing yards, and senior James Montgomery added another 10. And backup quarterback Marshall Lobbestael was sacked three times, thus contributing negative 30 yards.
Washington State gained 72 yards on the night. And then they lost 64 of them.
The passing game couldn't make up for the rushing problems. Tuel, who finished 17 of 26 and threw two interceptions, was under constant pressure despite the Sun Devils coming into the game with the fewest number of sacks in the conference.
And that was far from the only issue.
"Offensively, we may have broken a record for most dropped balls in one half," Wulff said at halftime. "It was ridiculous."
FOR BRIGHT SPOTS you have to look over the offense, and defense, and then go to the punting game. Reid Forrest's fifth punt, with a little more than 13 minutes left in the game, which traveled 57 yards -- and into the record books.
It was the 255th punt in his time with the Cougars, tying him with Kyle Basler atop the all-time list. He broke the record later in the quarter, finishing the game with 10,845 career yards and passing Basler's record of 10,794 yards set in 2005.
Forrest, who had a 22-yard punt in the third quarter that gave Arizona State possession at the WSU 41, said that the achievement was humbling.

Vivian Gordon James Jenkins, rugby player and journalist: born Port Talbot, Glamorgan 2 November 1911; married 1940 Susan Fraser (died 1984; one son) died Harpenden, Hertfordshire 5 January 2004.
Hailed as one of rugby union's greatest full-backs, Vivian Jenkins went on to become one of the best writers on the game, as the rugby correspondent for The Sunday Times.
One of Wales's all-round sportsmen, Jenkins was the first player to score a try for his country from full-back and he also played county cricket as an amateur for Glamorgan. At the time of his death, he was the oldest living Glamorgan cricketer, and president of their former players' association, and the second oldest living Wales rugby international and British Lion, behind the 96-year-old Harry Bowcott, his fellow Welshman.
Educated at Llandovery College and Jesus College, Oxford, Jenkins became a double Blue, playing at centre for Oxford in 1930, 1931 and 1932, winning two and drawing one, and then figuring in the Varsity cricket match at Lord's in 1933. He played county cricket for Glamorgan between 1931 and 1937, scoring 1,328 runs at an average of 17.94 in 44 matches and taking two wickets at 27.00. He also kept wicket for the county and stumped seven batsmen in addition to taking 17 catches.
He made his county début against Middlesex at Swansea in 1931 and notched a career-best 65 against Surrey at The Oval the following year. But cricket was Jenkins's second love and it was at rugby that he excelled. Despite starting his rugby life at centre, Jenkins developed into one of the finest full-backs in the game almost by accident.
Bridgend decided to switch him from centre to full-back for their Boxing Day trip to meet Newport at Rodney Parade in 1932. So impressive was he that the Welsh selectors picked him for the Possibles in the final Welsh trial and, three weeks after his début in the position, on 21 January 1933 he was lining up to win the first of his 14 caps against England at Twickenham.
It was to become one of the most famous days in Welsh rugby history as a Wales team led by Watcyn Thomas, and boasting seven new caps, won for the first time at Twickenham after a 23-year wait. It may have become known as Ronnie Boon's match, the Cardiff wing scoring all his side's points in a 7-3 triumph, but it was the first international outing for three remarkable sportsmen. Jenkins, Wilf Wooller and Maurice Turnbull all played first-class cricket together for Glamorgan as well as rugby for Wales, and Turnbull also went on to play cricket for England.
That proved to be a season of mixed fortune for Jenkins. He had his first conversion kick in Test rugby overruled by the referee after the Welsh touch judge had raised his flag at Twickenham, missed the next match against the Scots with a septic arm and was then in a team well beaten in Ireland. He was unfit for the opening game of the 1934 championship campaign, when England won 9-0 in Cardiff, but returned to kick two conversions in a 13-6 victory over Scotland at Murrayfield and then became the first Welsh full-back to score a try as Wales beat Ireland 13-0 in Swansea.
While Welsh fans had waited 152 games, and 54 years, to see a full-back cross for a try, they had to wait another 33 years, and another 108 games, before Keith Jarrett managed to match Jenkins's feat.
Jenkins and Wooller went on to achieve even greater fame for their exploits in the 1935 victory over the New Zealand All Blacks. Jenkins, who ended with 36 points for Wales in his 14 appearances, converted two of the three tries, while Wooller helped to set up two of them.
In 1938, Jenkins was one of eight Welshmen included in the British and Irish Lions side to tour South Africa and was Sam Walker's vice-captain. He was picked for the first Test, landing three long-range penalties, one from eight yards inside his own half, to give the Lions early hope, but in the end they were well beaten. His tour was hampered by hamstring trouble, although he ended it as the second-highest points scorer with 50.
His towering punts and deadly accurate goal-kicking always punished opponents, while his defensive attributes were magnificent. Although first capped from Bridgend, he played the majority of his club rugby at London Welsh, where he became a revered figure.
It was after leaving Oxford, and taking up a teaching post at Dover College in Kent, that Jenkins joined the Exiles and he went on to captain them in 1936-37. His international career came to an end when he retired after the 3-0 defeat by England at Twickenham in 1939.
He joined the staff of the News of the World and began his new career by covering motor racing. He joined the Territorial Army in August 1939, at the outbreak of the Second World War, serving in the anti-aircraft command and rising to become a captain. He played for the Army and Combined Services teams and played for the Army against France in Paris in 1940. He returned to work for the News of the World in 1946 and covered the MCC cricket tours to Australia and New Zealand in 1946 and to the West Indies in 1947.
In the Fifties he moved to The Sunday Times to take over from the Welsh-born English international scrum-half Dai Gent. On its launch in 1972 he became the editor of the Rothmans Rugby Yearbook, holding the post for 11 years, and he wrote a number of other books on rugby, including Lions Rampant (1956) and Lions Down Under (1959).
