GOULD _ the Honourable John (Jay) on February 5 in his 90 year, following a
brief illness while vacationing in Palm Desert, California. He is survived
by his wife of 46 years, Pat; son Bill; daughters Beth (Hall), Jayna
(Ellsworth); grandchildren Carly, Evan, Jay, Alec, Kayla. As sentiment was
anathma to Jay, he extracted a promise from his family that the word
"loving" would be stricken from the text of any obituary over which we had
control. A lifetime Vancouver resident, he enrolled at UBC at age 16 where
he excelled in bridge. At age 17 he renounced higher education, left
university to work in Powell River's pulp and paper mills and sundry other
occupations. Five years later Jay returned gratefully to UBC, and was voted
Student Council President in 1936. In due course a law degree, on his way to
a distinguished career. During World War II he served aboard corvettes in
the North Atlantic theatre, with the rank of Lt. Commander. Always
fascinated by politics, on his return to civilian life after the war, Jay
served as a Liberal MLA from 1949 to 1952. He reluctantly retired, due, he
said, to "a massive assist from the voting public." An avid boater, Jay
acquired several vessels over the years, each a challenge - until the last
one - the greatest challenge of them all, by which time he should have known
better. He was appointed to the Supreme Court of British Columbia in 1964.
It is safe to say that his innate kindness and sense of fair play did not go
unnoticed nor unheralded. Upon mandatory retirement at 75 Jay was able to
devote more time to his passion for travel. The London theatre was the
greatest attraction, a month-long annual trek which he missed only once in
24 years. At home in his well equipped workshop he applied his
unquestionable skills to designing and making dreadful lamps and recycling
his vast inventory of collected junk. Jay was a man of constant
contradictions. He was funny, exasperating, opinionated, kind, arrogant,
warm and utterly unique. He will be sorely missed. At his request there will
be no service. His family will welcome his friends at 640 Duchess Avenue,
West Vancouver, on Saturday Feb 23, from 4-6pm.
BOLTON _ Doris, on February 7, 2002, Euphemia Elizabeth Doris Bolton, passed
away at home with her daughter by her side. She joins her beloved parents,
Norval (Cuddy) and Sarah (Sadie) Gamble; brothers, George, Lynn and Blair
Gamble; and her great granddaughters, Chloe and Celia Higgins. Doris was
born near Crane Valley, Saskatchewan on June 5, 1926. In 1948, she and her
husband moved with their young family to Creston, BC, where she lived for
almost 50 years. She was an active member of the Pythian Sisters, the Eagles
and the Legion Ladies Auxiliary. After her children left home, she worked at
the Endicott Centre for the Mentally Handicapped for 10 of the happiest
years of her life. She was known far and wide as an outstanding cook and is
fondly remembered for the generosity with which she welcomed all, including
hungry strangers, to share at her table. She loved having tea parties with
her grandchildren, travelling, dancing, country and spiritual music, The
Young and the Restless, and spending time and talking on the phone with
friends and family. Among her talents, the greatest was her openness to and
interest in people from all backgrounds and cultures. Her children often
teased that she could strike up a coversation with a rock. She inspired
great and loving friendships. When her health, which was never good,
deteriorated so that she could no longer live in her own home, she moved in
1997 to Vancouver to live with her daughter. Family was extraordinarily
important to her. She proudly displayed photos of eight generations in her
home. The family she leaves behind to greatly miss her include children,
Heather, D'Arcy and Randy (Pat) Bolton, Fred (Faye) Pendry; sisters, Kathy
(Bruce) Arrowsmith, Muriel (Louie) Rota and Hazel (Jerry) Hughes;
grandchildren, Brandi (David) Higgins, Kimberly (Andrew) Lavigne, Tara,
Spring (Bob) and Travis Bolton, Charlotte and Justin Douglas and great
grandson, Ethan; along with numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and in-laws.
She was eagerly anticipating the births of two additional
great-grandchildren this year. The family would like to express heartfelt
thanks to the many people who have been so kind and supportive. While there
are too many to mention by name, we would like to especially acknowledge the
following whose friendship and care enriched the quality of Doris' later
life: Reg Cox, whom Doris thought of as another son, Betty Clemo, Marion
Holland, Shirley Luke, Diane Bolton, Sister Kathleen Bolton, Diane Kika,
Master Kee Ha, his family, Hong, Bo Kyung, and Gi Sung and the staff at
Kee's Tae Kwon Do, Jim Scroda and Yvon Neveu. Special thanks to Rosa
Dalupang for her tender care and love of "Grandma". Thanks also to the
professionals at Greater Vancouver Community Services, especially Dina and
Terry, for their personal care, and the Ravensong Health Care team. For his
understanding, compassion and support, our gratitude goes to Dr. Morris
Hestrin. Doris' life will be celebrated with a private service and tea at
home in Vancouver. In July, family and friends will gather for a memorial
service and tree planting in Creston. Details for the memorial will be
published in the Creston Valley Advance in early July.

John lived an interesting life, travelling around the world in the 1930's
selling Canadian Comment and MacLeans Magazines. He sailed to the South Seas
where he was the extended guest of the King of the Fijian island of Kandavu.
In New Zealand he was made an honorary officer aboard the sailing ship of
Count Felix Von Luckner, the famous sea raider of WW1. In China, he refused
author/adventurer Richard Halliburtons offer of passage on the ill-fated
sailing ship The Sea Dragon, which was lost in a typhoon on its way to the
1939 Treasure Island Worlds Fair in San Francisco. In 1940 he built a boat
at Mayo, Yukon Territories, and rowed it down the Stewart and Yukon Rivers
all the way into Alaska. He was the first Canadian representative for
Newsweek Magazine and he sold subscriptions to miners in the Yukon, many
being original sourdoughs from the gold rush of 1898. While in Dawson City
he rented a cabin from Klondike Kate. In 1941, he answered the call to duty
and enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy. He was one of the first officer
graduates from Royal Roads in Victoria and served as Lieutenant on the
Corvettes HMCS Ville de Quebec and HMCS Winnipeg, performing convoy duty on
the North Atlantic until 1945. The highlights of his life were published in
his successful 1993 autobiography Slipping the Lines, Adventures in Peace
and War. He spent his last years ensuring that everyone he met bought a copy
of his book. A consummate salesman, he even got US President Bill Clinton to
buy a copy, at full price in US dollars. John was a resident of West
Vancouver for 55 years. His house at 1570 Argyle was know as The Silk Purse
and is now home to the West Vancouver Community Arts Council. John was a

MANSFIELD _ Diane Greta passed away peacefully at Minoru Residence in
Richmond, February 10, 2002 at the age of 91. She was predeceased by her
loving husband of sixty years, Harley in 1993 and brothers Kirk and Ralph
Jones. She will be fondly remembered by her sister Phyllis Chiles, and
brothers Gerald and Bill Peverelle (Lorraine) as well as many nieces,
nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews. They moved to the Brentwood area of
Burnaby in the 1950's then to New Westminster in the 1970's. Harley and
Diane entered the world with the names of Robert Pironi and Dorothy Margaret
Jones. In 1939, they changed their names to Diane and Harley Mansfield.
Diane was an extraordinary woman of grace and poise. She was an elgegant
beauty, with a kind and loving nature to match. Diane worked as a waitress
at Scott's Cafe on Granville Street, and later as a sales clerk at
Silverman's Ladies Wear on Commercial Drive, and Saba's in Brentwood mall.
Harley was a welder by trade who worked at Vancouver Iron and Engineering
Works for many years. As well, he was an accomplished musician who played
the accordian with his and other local bands at various dances and functions
in the lower mainland. Harley was also an avid gardener, Hall of Fame soccer
player and, according to Harley, the "Worlds Greatest Lover." Though they
had no children of their own, Diane and Harley played a constant and
significant role in the lives of their many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces
and grand-nephews. Diane never missed an opportunity to babysit - still
offering to watch her great-great nieces well into her eighties! Diane and
Harley were part of a large family that loved to spend time together. Family
gatherings occurred in the form of traditional holidays, fishing trips, or
impromptu get-togethers. Never was an occasion complete without a feast
prepared by Diane and fantastic storytelling by Harley. When bellies were
full, he would weave a tale to fill the imagination. His accordian playing
would round out the event, and have everyone in song. To have been loved by
Diane and Harley is to have experienced unwavering support, constant
kindness, and pure adoration. As their family, we have let them go to be
together again, comforted that they are but a memory away. No service

passion for his surviving wife Annabelle, daughters, Cherie Hemmingsen and
Sally Mahood, 6 grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren, carved deep and
appreciated impressions in all that knew him. His son Ian Keith Mahood
predeceased him in 1996. As a husband, Ian increasingly celebrated each and
every of the 60 years romancing his wife. She was his girl and he, her man.
As a father and grandfather, he boasted a prolific and expansive legacy in
which he was ever engaged. As a noted author, he both richly chronicled and
contributed to B.C.'s history. As a forester, for his endurance in fighting
for a bright future in B.C.'s forest industry, he was respected by cavilers
and laudators alike. As a man, Ian inspired with his proud sense of justice,
humour, love and dignity. Ian was a member of First Baptist Church Nanaimo,
formerly of West Vancouver Baptist. He served proudly with the Royal
Canadian Engineers in WWII and later with the United Nations, setting up
forestry management systems in third-world countries. He worked with the M&B
Forestry department, was 2 term president of the Truck Loggers Association,
partner in Millsheam Timber, vice president of the Council of Forest
Products and president of Triangle Pacific Canada. Ian was an alumnus of UBC
with degrees in Commerce and Forestry. Ian was, and will continue to be, an
inspiration to all that knew him. The world is indeed a better place for him
having been in it. He was a good man. Memorial service is to be held at
First Baptist Church Nanaimo, Thursday, February 21 at 3 p.m. In lieu of
flowers donations can be made in Ian's name to the Alzheimer's Society,

Carrie tremendously helped us with the Greencard process by providing documents with enough preparation time to fill them out and gathering necessary files and documents. She always reminded us of upcoming deadlines in due time and was incredibly thorough. She was immediately available to answer all questions regarding the process and established a friendly and supportive working relationship. We felt that Carrie truly cared about us and about her work as immigration lawyer. I am so glad my husband found her, a person and lawyer who can be trusted and relied on. We are very grateful to her for supporting and helping us obtain the Greencard and not for a second doubted her interests or the information she provided. We couldn't have found a better person for this job.

If you are readying this, then you are a smart shopper; one who wants to find the absolute best attorney for your immigration case; two years ago, that was us... we found Carrie via her Yelp reviews... I am excited and pleased to say my husband is now on his way to becoming a legal resident of the USA.... Carrie played a large role in this... she guided us through the maze of documents, gave us honesty and clarity when we needed it and made sure she prepared us in the most through way possible in order to obtain an immigrant visa. It is without hesitation that we recommend Carrie to anyone out there looking for real help with reasonable fees. Thank you Carrie!

Carrie helped me achieve my permanent residency status in the United States. Working with both myself and my wife, Carrie showed that she was not just interested in us as clients, but that she was interested in our lives and our story as people. She was thorough and professional throughout every step of the way in my path to residency. We encountered a few hiccups along the way and Carrie was there to help us every time not only in terms of clarifying the process, but with creative and substantive solutions to help us overcome these obstacles. She is fair, flexible and genuinely cares about her clients. Immigration processes can alter lives and even under the the most straightforward of conditions, can be stressful and ridden with anxiety. Carrie helped to ease the stress by letting us know what we can expect each step of the way, providing informed and helpful answers to our (many) questions, and made herself available by phone, email and in-person meetings when we needed them. Carrie was integral in our ultimately successful residency case. We would not hesitate to utilize her services again and highly recommend her for anyone in need to legal representation in this area. Thank you Carrie!

Carrie seriously changed my life. I am forever grateful to her. I was very worried to start my naturalization process because I had been denied in the past and was so scared it would happen again. I had done some stupid things in my youth that were a huge deal when it came to getting my naturalization complete. After reading many reviews about her, I decided to go for it. Oh boy am I glad I did. She was absolutely wonderful! I didn't know it could actually be pleasant to deal with a lawyer, but she has changed my mind. She also worked so hard to research everything about my type of case and be extremely prepared. She worked tirelessly to help me to build the strongest case possible. She prepared me for the interview and took the time to practice with me. She came to the interview with me and was an amazing resource of legal knowledge and moral support.
I was still really expecting a denial and thought we would have to dispute the denial and go through the long process of fighting that decision. That didn't happen...
I got approved!! I am now a citizen and am so very happy that I get to feel safe about my status in the country that I call home. I get to explore the world with my husband-to-be because Carrie did such a stellar job on my case!!
She is AMAZING!!!
(also I felt like the price was so worth it and completely reasonable)
I don't think I will ever be able to express in words how thankful I am to Carrie.

Carrie is the absolute best lawyer ever! Honestly, if there was some sort of Worlds-Best-Lawyer-Contest, Carrie would win the Magic-Purple-Law-Trophy-of-Sweet-Sweet-Legal-Justice (I imagine that would be the First Place prize of said competition. It might also be some sort of crown or ribbon I guess.) Am I exaggerating? No. No I am not.
Seriously though- Last year, my husband and I were looking to get my status adjusted from F1 student to permanent residency. This issue was a pretty big stress for us, and as with most immigration cases, we feared a lot of the paperwork and hoops we would need to jump through just to prove the legitimacy of our relationship. So, given our fears, we did what many couples do and decided to find an immigration lawyer to help guide us. During our initial search we interviewed countless lawyers. How many lawyers are there in this field? Apparently a lot. Most of them ranged from acceptable to decent and one was even downright rude. Then, as if it were kismet, we came across Carrie. What a stroke of luck it was to discover her! As soon as we had our very first consultation with her it was clear as day that she was the absolute perfect choice to represent us. Carrie treated us with such professional care and attention while at the same time being sincere, responsive, supportive and personable.
Without fail during the length of our case, Carrie explained everything to us in terms we could understand, and whenever we had any questions or concerns- no matter how small or insignificant, she replied to us as if it was of utmost urgency. How fast did she reply you ask? Honestly, sometimes within minutes. We couldn't have asked for a more attentive immigration lawyer. On top of being a professional that we felt we could depend on, Carrie was a kind and thoughtful friend to us throughout the process.
As is typical of couples as lazy and awesome as us, my husband and I would sometimes procrastinate at keeping her updated (sorry Carrie!), but she was always encouraging and patient with us to get us back on track whenever we were behind on our list of things to do. Nearing our interview date, she checked in with us constantly to make sure that we were going to be comfortable on the day.
We can't recommend Carrie highly enough.
Best. Lawyer. Ever.

My husband and I went to Carrie for help applying to adjust my visa status from an F-1 student visa to permanent resident in August 2014. She provided a clear explanation of our options and what we should expect at every stage in terms of evidence to provide, questions we'd have to answer in interview, and timing. She also let me know I'd be able to apply for a temporary work permit at the same time as my adjustment application, which allowed me to get back to work 2 months earlier than I had been expecting. Throughout the process, she responded quickly and thoroughly to any questions we had, and found her to be personable, professional, and knowledgeable to the Nth degree. We couldn't recommend her highly enough, and will certainly seek out her services for the removal of conditions and naturalisation processes.

Carrie won the citizenship case of our son the first tray! It was not an easy case, but because of Carrie's hard work and commitment, the winning strategy had succeeded. Carrie is a very bright and diligent lawyer. She started the process with careful and intensive analysis of all details. Then she adopted an optimal strategy and formulated main arguments. And besides the high professional skills, Carrie has a very nice personality. It was easy to communicate with her. She works via the Internet connection and is available for questions at any time. If you need an immigration attorney, then Carrie is the best choice!

Carrie possess all of the qualities of a fantasy lawyer: Knowledgeable, passionate, thorough, a great listener, awesome problem-solver, diligent, persistent, responsive, prompt, funny, strong, non-judgmental, and quick.
My foreign husband and I approached her with a really complicated green card scenario. We had been going around and around with other lawyers, trying to figure out even how to approach the problem. Carrie not only immediately grasped the complexity of the situation, but offered realistic options and an organizational plan for getting the ball rolling.
We were extremely impressed with Carrie's breadth of knowledge of immigration law. Her confidence, passion, and caring really make us feel like we are in good hands and have a good chance of getting the results we are seeking.

Carrie is very knowledgeable and makes the process very simple. I highly recommend her.
She was present and available at every step of the way. Good immigration lawyer.
Posted by Miguel
Working with Carrie has been an amazing journey. I was really impressed after our first meeting when I exposed my case. She needed to do some research before coming up with options to proceed. She said she would e-mail me soon, but I thought it would take her some days. I arrived home and checked my e-mail. To my surprise, I had an e-mail from her explaining what my options would be. Such a fast response spoke louder than words so I realized how committed, passionate, hardworking, thorough, responsible and diligent she was.
She is a great lawyer with a lot of experience in working with immigration cases. I thought the process would be really long, hard and overwhelming since I had to gather a lot of documents, but she is so detail oriented and organized that I didn't see the days go by and very soon, the application package was ready to send. It is so easy to work with her through e-mails and phone calls. She is always there to answer questions that arise during the process and also discuss the best options to win the case.
Despite the fact that there are a lot terms used by attorneys that sometimes are quite difficult to understand, she always does her best to be as clear as possible as to the terms she uses in such a way that the client understands everything.
If you need an attorney for your immigration case, Carrie L. Rosenbaum is undoubtedly the right one. Believe me, you won't regret it.

Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART)
Several procedures can be used to unite sperm and eggs, thus bypassing altogether some of the factors causing infertility. Collectively, these procedures are referred to as assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Although most couples do not require these procedures to conceive, ART provides hope for those who do not respond to other therapies. (Learn more about our success rates.)
The simplest ART procedures use various medicines to stimulate ovulation and laboratory procedures to prepare sperm cells for insemination at the time of ovulation. Advanced ART procedures involve the use of various hormones to stimulate the growth of as many oocytes as possible. This multiple oocyte development increases the chances for fertilization and, subsequently, pregnancy.
After ovarian stimulation, eggs are harvested to be either mixed with sperm in a culture dish (In Vitro Fertilization) or injected with a single sperm cell (Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection).
Our Procedures
In Vitro Fertilization
In vitro fertilization (IVF) involves mixing eggs and sperm in a small volume to allow fertilization to occur in an incubator. The resulting embryos are grown for two to five days in a laboratory setting. IVF initially was used to treat tubal factor infertility, but today is used for many causes of infertility, including endometriosis and unexplained factors. Learn more »
Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection
This procedure is used to treat male factor infertility or previously failed fertilization. In intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection, a single sperm is injected into each egg.
Embryo Transfer
In embryo transfer, an ultrasound is used to help guide a small, flexible tube into the uterus. Once in position, the embryos (or a single embryo) are gently placed in the uterus.
Assisted Hatching
Used to enhance implantation, assisted hacthing involves a laser that is used to make a microscopic nick in the protein coat that surrounds the developing embryo.

January 8th—Fearlessly Archived—Still a fun read; price & availability may have changed.
Fillo dough (also spelled phyllo) is characterized by its paper-thin (or thinner!) sheets that bake to a crispy, flaky, multi-layered finish. Because fillo has a relatively neutral flavor, it can be filled with a variety of ingredients, from sweet to tart, savory to salty. Trader Joe's Camembert Cheeese and Cranberry Sauce Fillo Bites take the tart-savory-sweet route, to delicious results.
In the past, we sold similar hors d'oeuvres filled with raspberry and Brie. This time around, we went after a more distinctive flavor profile, and found it in the combination of Camembert and cranberries. Camembert is sharper, more pungent, and tangier than its soft-ripened cousin, Brie, so it brings an ample bite to every… bite. (Signified by the extra "e" in "Cheeese"!) Pairing the Camembert with naturally tart cranberries is an inspired coupling, if we do say so ourselves, and a hint of sweetness neatly ties the cheese and berry flavors together.
Serve Camembert Cheeese and Cranberry Sauce Fillo Bites at a cocktail party, as appetizers leading into a holiday meal, or as a mid-afternoon, after-school snack. We're selling each 5.5 ounce box of eight pieces for $3.99. You'll find them in our freezers.

James Baldwin
James Baldwin's "The Amen Corner"
In 1965, the same year that the landmark Voting Rights Act was signed into law and only one year after the signing Civil Rights Act of 1964, Lloyd Richards' production of James Baldwin's The Amen Corner toured the European theatre festival circuit, hitting stops in Austria, England, France, and the Netherlands. Though written in Paris, Baldwin's The Amen Corner is generally understood within the canon of African-American theatre. Throughout its development, African- American theatre has often dealt with questions of race and race relations in different ways. It has been written for white audiences, for black audiences, and for integrated audiences. However, it has almost always been written for American audiences. In many ways, the story of black life in America is a very uniquely American story. The history of the United States' chattel slavery system along with the trouble of Reconstruction and the Jim Crow laws that followed it, and the scars that this history left in the relationship between black and white people in the United States had no European corollary. For this reason, American theatre about race relations must have read somewhat differently for European audiences. As a production with an entirely black cast, the 1965 tour of The Amen Corner offered European audiences a glimpse at a kind of theatre that they were largely unaccustomed to seeing. Because of this rare opportunity, combined with its timing, European audiences fully expected to see a play that dealt directly with race relations and civil rights. Despite European critics' perceptions that The Amen Corne does not explicitly handle the issue of race relations, an analysis of the text reveals that it uses the racialized version of Christianity unique to Harlem as an avenue for discussing the black community's struggles with family, poverty, and faith in the United States.
In its 1965 touring production, The Amen Corner's racial message failed to translate to European audiences. In 1965, after years of highly publicized civil rights struggles (during which James Baldwin was a very loud voice in the artistic community), Europe was likely poised to see a play about this struggle that they'd heard so much about. One Vienna critic's principal issue with the piece, which he pointed out in an early notice, was that The Amen Corner "does not touch the race issue" and that "it would have been interesting to see how the wound in America's flesh which is treated by a lot of white writers would have been treated by the other side."[1] The same reviewer however, makes note of the production's significance as a play that "can find its way to Europe only by 'import' because it cannot be played by white actors." These two statements form an interesting pair. Because the Vienna stage could not possibly have mounted this kind of production (according to the reviewer), the audience could not have been expected to understand the more subtle, more deeply seated issues of long-term race and class struggles, and certainly not from the perspective of an African-American author.
Though Europe certainly faced race issues of its own, those particular struggles manifested themselves quite differently and thus left very different signs. European nations in the 1950s were dealing mainly with the results of their African and Caribbean colonial projects; although some nations, like the United Kingdom, did see a large influx of black immigrants from the Caribbean, the relationship that these people had with European whites would have been very different from the relationship between Black America and White America. One can note the way that reviewer views race struggles as the "wound in America's side" as an example of the way that many Europeans believed the civil rights issue to be a solely American issue. The quotation from that review regarding the supposed fact that the play could only have found itself in Europe by "import," seemed to highlight one difference that I had not really considered. By the 1960s, black America had developed art, literature, and culture that had managed to make its way into the American mainstream. A play like The Amen Corner could play on Broadway and in Hollywood. In Europe on the other hand, black theatre was in a very different place. According to the Black Plays Archive[2] in the United Kingdom, only a handful of plays by black authors were produced at all before 1965. In fact, the 1960s was the first decade that saw more than three plays by black playwrights produced.[3] Though black people in Europe certainly had their own art and culture, this critic's view shows that it was definitely not visible to the mainstream theatre community. Undoubtedly, black communities in Europe were not uniform, but the United Kingdom's example serves as a good litmus test (seeing as its imperial projects had given the UK more contact with people of African heritage than many other European nations), yet even they were unable to escape misunderstanding The Amen Corner.
Though its major productions, both on tour and on Broadway, were not realized until the mid 1960s, The Amen Corner actually came much earlier in James Baldwin's body of work. Written in 1954, it was not at all reflective of the bitterer, more revolutionary attitudes on race and politics that would have been typical of Baldwin's work in 1965. The Amen Corner comes much closer in tone to his first major published work, Go Tell It On the Mountain, published in 1953. Both Go Tell It On the Mountain and The Amen Corner deal primarily with the particular form of Christianity that emerged in Harlem, drawing from Baldwin's personal experience as the son of a Harlem preacher. In fact, The Amen Corner began as a sort of writing experiment for Baldwin as he attempted to re-create the success he'd had in writing Go Tell It On the Mountain and he "began to imitate [him]self".[4] While this may have been the reason for beginning the exercise, it is clear that in Baldwin's mind, The Amen Corner took on a life of its own and became a worthwhile creative project. It was also clear that The Amen Corner needed to be a play. Baldwin's commitment to developing a religious story in the dramatic form is evidenced by the fact that he developed the script for The Amen Corner as a member of The New Dramatists, a playwright collective devoted to the creation and refinement of new theatre.
By working with other theatre makers, Baldwin was able to draw directly from creative voices familiar with the theatrical structure and theatrical traditions. This kind of creative exchange would have led Baldwin to set The Amen Corner apart from Go Tell it On the Mountain, even though the two began as incredibly similar works. Through this influence, The Amen Corner is able to fully embrace the theatricality of religion in general, but also the particular theatrics of Black Christianity. Black churches in various denominations had elements of song and dance, but no denomination was so theatrical as the Pentecostals. Pentecostal rituals began the so-called 'charismatic' movement of Christianity in which worship included ecstatic proclamations of faith, speaking in tongues, and convulsions. In reflecting on his own time as a preacher in one of these Black Pentecostal churches, Baldwin writes:
"The church was very exciting. It took a long time for me to disengage myself from this excitement, and on the blindest, most visceral level, I never really have, and never will. There is no music like that music, no drama like the drama of the saints rejoicing, the sinners moaning, the tambourines racing, and all those voices coming together and crying holy unto the Lord. "[5]
According to one Vienna newspaper, the music was what Austrian audiences found most compelling in The Amen Corner, in particular because of the language barrier.[6] This allowed for a particular emphasis on music and spectacle in the European production that may perhaps not have been present in American productions. According to critic Barbara K. Olson, The Amen Corner's form is part of what enables it to be a more effective critique of Harlem's particular brand of Black Christianity as an inadequate coping mechanism for a struggling, marginalized community than Go Tell It on the Mountain could be. [7]The Amen Corner's emotional momentum, and its enabling of the audience to actually partake in the over-the-top, impassioned Black Pentecostal rituals that Go Tell it on the Mountain can only attempt to describe provides a much closer insight into the religion's allure. On a metatheatrical level as well, the sheer theatricality with which The Amen Corner presents Black Christianity creates for audiences an awareness of the rituals' falseness. Just as they are aware that they are watching actors perform a Black Pentecostal service, they can also become aware that they are in fact watching characters who are acting just as much as the actors playing those characters. Richards' production emphasizes this point in its scenic design. In terms of the church portion of the set, the congregation is seated facing away from the audience at an angle, thereby allowing the play's audience to watch the congregation as they watch the sermons. While this was certainly a directorial choice, Richards' vision for The Amen Corner, can in some ways be seen as Baldwin's own; the author himself stated that this was the first time he'd seen the play as he'd envisioned it[8]. Through the metatheatrical portrayal of the congregation, Baldwin does not criticize true religion as a solace for black people; he merely criticizes the abuse of false faith as a tool to hide from the realities of black life in the United States. Some critics argue that this layer of falsehood is not apparent within the text of The Amen Corner, and that the text can be interpreted as a defense of Black Christianity in using the large Pentecostal service scenes as an actual motivating force, moving the audience toward legitimate belief rather than discerning judgment. This argument, however, is not reflected in James Baldwin's later work or in his own firsthand accounts of his personal religious ideology. In directly addressing the issue of his crisis of religion as a teenager in his The Fire Next Time, Baldwin discusses the epiphany that he had when his faith and the fictional safety blanket that it provided failed him:
"Therefore, to state it in another, more accurate way, I became, during my fourteenth year, for the first time in my life, afraid — afraid of the evil within me and afraid of the evil without. What I saw around me that summer in Harlem was what I had always seen; nothing had changed. But now, without any warning, the whores and pimps and racketeers on the Avenue had become a personal menace. It had not before occurred to me that I could become one of them, but now I realized that we had been produced by the same circumstances."[9]
In this rather bleak description of the typical fortunes of Harlem residents, Baldwin's mention of "the same circumstances" is key. According to Baldwin, his moral upbringing, having been no different than any of the criminals he sees along the street, could still possibly result in his becoming one of said criminals. In this concrete way, Baldwin decides that the cycle of oppression that leads black people into delinquency is a fact that is only veiled by, and not at all prevented by religion. This idea of religion masking strife is also present in the Richards production's set. The direct juxtaposition achieved by splitting the stage between the church and the home emphasizes the notion that the ecstasy of the church is a falsehood as the true downsides to Harlem life are revealed within the home. Yet, Baldwin's assault on the oppressive power of Christianity does not end there, it turns a much more philosophical corner when the teenaged Baldwin reaches his own conclusions on religion's relationship with race while supposedly undergoing a Christian conversion experience on the floor of a Harlem church:
"The universe, which is not merely the stars and the moon and the planets, flowers, grass, and trees, but other people, has evolved no terms for your existence, has made no room for you, and if love will not swing wide the gates, no other power will or can. And if one despairs — as who has not? — of human love, God's love alone is left. But God — and I felt this even then, so long ago, on that tremendous floor, unwillingly — is white. And if His love was so great, and if He loved all His children, why were we, the blacks, cast down so far? Why? In spite of all I said thereafter, I found no answer"[10]
The Fire Next Time serves to reveal the extent to which The Amen Corner's themes relate with the struggle of the impoverished black residents of Harlem in particular, and just how tied with Black Christianity their lives were. While there is no explicitly white character within The Amen Corner, one might take Baldwin's own suggestion from The Fire Next Time and view the Pentecostal God as the symbol of whiteness within the play. At the end of the play, the two principal characters, David and Margaret both sever their relationships with the Pentecostal Church. David's severing is seen as a hopeful step for a younger generation in escaping Harlem through art (as Baldwin himself did). Margaret's severing however, is the most obviously racialized. If one accepts that the Pentecostal Church's view of God as being the placeholder for the influence of white society, Margaret's final epiphany resolves the very issue that Baldwin took with the church during his 'conversion experience' as a teen. Margaret exclaims that "To love the Lord is to love all His children — all of them, everyone! — and suffer with them and rejoice with them and never count the cost!"[11] In this proclamation, Margaret decolonizes the form of Christianity that Baldwin himself practiced. In this vision of religion, Baldwin removes the ignorance, encouraging true believers to "love all His children," and to "suffer with them and rejoice with them." The implication here being that in a truly productive form of faith, black people are given access to the exact same love and salvation as white people. In fact, rather than simply repair Baldwin's qualms with his Pentecostal teen years, Margaret's statement here also serves as an attack on the morality of white Americans and their standing as true Christians. This call to "love all His children" may be being delivered by one black actress to other black actors, but when placed on stage, it becomes a command to the audience. It tasks the audience to examine the possible hypocrisy of their own faith in questioning their treatment of "all His children." In this way, it turns a religion that previously functioned as a form of subjugation into a tool of revolutionary thought and empowerment. At the end of this play, Baldwin offers his audience two options out of the world of Harlem's crime infested streets. The first is an escape from the community and its ideals, physically removing oneself from Harlem in order to avoid resigning oneself to delinquency and/or poverty. The second option is a subversion of the community's own belief system by revealing its problematics and exposing its hypocrisy. Either way, Baldwin seems to indicate that those individuals who choose simply to blindly follow the Black Christian faith as prescribed in Harlem will remain just like the rest of the Church's congregation, "despicable, sex-starved, ambitious, jealous, cruel"[12] –the victims of having bought into the form of Christianity that had been passed down for centuries beginning with the colonization of Africa, and the indoctrination of slaves.
The great irony of The Amen Corner's 1965 tour was that though the production was certainly an imported one, the text itself was created during James Baldwin's time in Paris. A play born in Europe, but developed by the United States that received an eventual audience in Europe, The Amen Corner is in some ways unique. Baldwin took exile in Europe to avoid the very systems of oppression that were often depicted in his work, yet his European contemporaries (at least those outside of the Left Bank literary movement of mid-century Paris) were unable to fully understand the things he wrote on. The Amen Corner actually showed just why Baldwin moved to Paris in the first place, in order to escape the oppressive cycle of Harlem, Pentecostals and all.

One of users in a remote office uses a laptop and Outlook to connect to our exchange server. He is having issues where when he sends an email the message stays in the inbox.
At the beginning, when pressing send and receive and going into the calendar caused Outlook to crash, so to get around this I created a new profile.
When loading the profile for the first time, outlook downloaded the mailbox which had taken slightly longer than it normally would.
At first, we thought this had fixed our problem, but soon later messages appeared in the outbox for a while and still outlook continuously crashes.
The connection between the sites is through a VPN with on average 2mb/s download speed and 768kb upload in the remote office.

Reviews for Thai Chicken Pasta
Average Rating
"This was a good, quick recipe with few ingredients. I took the advice of some of the other reviewers and doubled some of the sauce ingredients. I kept the 1/2 cup salsa, honey and peanut butter but added more orange juice and a little more soy sauce. The sauce, while tasting good, was a bit pasty so I would add some chicken broth to thin it out a little. I used crunchy peanut butter as well. Definitely worth trying."
"Other than the texture, this dish had good flavor. We did sub rice pasta for the wheat (due to gluten allergy) but otherwise, it was the same ingredients. I liked the peanut butter sauce and but I think next time I'll add a touch more soy sauce to make the sauce a little creamier and a more pleasant texture."
"It was nice how quick this was, but we thought it was disappointing compared to other homemade Thai dishes. The texture was also odd."
"I enjoyed this dish. It comes together quickly and actually looks very pretty with the suggested garnish. The spiciness level of the salsa definitely is important in the overall taste of this dish. I added some sauteed onion and garlic to the mixture."
"This was excellent. Just spicy enough. Not overwhelming with the peanut butter flavor. I doubled the recipe so I could have lunch the next day. Not a good plan. The noodles soaked up all the sauce & it was super dry. Didn't reheat well."
"I just tried this. Like other reviewers I doubled everything except the peanut butter and honey. I loved it and will definitely make again. My husband would like it more spicey so I will use a hotter salsa next time."
"Just making this again for supper tonight. Been looking forward to the next time I could make it! It's SO GOOD. Sorry for the previous reviewer that didnt like it - but everyone's tastes are different, that's what makes different recipes interesting! I always cook the sauce on the stovetop, just because I prefer to do it that way. Probably eliminates the smelly microwave situation too."
"this was just awful. the sauce was disgusting. the peanut butter and salsa didn't combine at all, not to mention cooking salsa in the microwaves makes your house smell like burnt rotten tomatoes for days to come. do not make this recipe - a waste of time, money, and food!"
"This was my first time making any Thai food. My husband LOVES it in restaurants so I had a lot to live up to! He raved the whole time he was eating about how much he loved it! I made extra pasta and tripled the sauce recipe and accidentally used too much salsa but would do it like that again. I'm not a huge fan of cilantro either but that gave it a lot more flavor and I enjoyed it in this dish very much!! This recipe is way easy too so it will be made in this home many more times!!"
"AMAZING!!! I love peanutty chicken and this certainly delivered the right flavour. I didn't have salsa, so I used a mixture of mango chutney, diced tomatoes, and added cilantro, basil, pepper and a bit of salt. I doubled the sauce for 2 people and it was a perfect amount. YUM!"
"This was AMAZING! I did double the sauce and it made enough for two with a little left over. YUM! I love Thai food. Nice to have a recipe I can make it home when I crave it and can't get to my favorite Rest. Will make again very soon!"
"I doubled the recipe, but found the peanut butter taste was a little too strong. Wasn't overly excited about this recipe and would probably make something else instead."
"My family really enjoyed this one! I might try it without the honey next time though, just to reduce the sweetness. Thanks!"
"My husband said he didn't like Thai foods. I tried this recipe only doubled it and it was a smash hit. I used Simply Jif for the peanut butter for a bit more of the healthy side."
"Great recipe. I used leftover rotisserie chicken which made this even quicker to prepare. I like my Thai a little spicy, so next time I will add a 1/2 tsp of ground chili paste. Also, this recipe is only for 2 servings. I doubled the recipe which served 2 and had a serving of leftovers for the next day! Yummy!"
"Not enough for 2 people. I was still hungry when I was finished. Won't bother with this recipe again. Guess I'm just not a satay kind of pallet!"
"Sauce a little thick. Will add more liquid next time. I used Mango salsa I had on hand. I will use Rice stick noodles next time.Husband liked."
"This a very tasty recipe. I will definitely make it again. My whole family loved it. I had to triple the recipe for the sauce though to make enough for four. I also made almost the whole 16oz. box of linguine."
"This was so tasty, a great variation on peanut sauce, and so easy too. The salsa added a bit of spice andtomato flavor, the peanut butter was perfect making it creamy. This is a new favorite, will be making often!"
"qwm,I have cooked chicken ina crockpot several times. I have done frozen and raw/unthawed chicken breasts. I would probably only fill the crock 1/2 full (no more than 3/4 full) and cook on high until the chicken shreds easily with a fork. Time depends on how much chicken or if it is frozen,etc. I would give it at least 5 hours for a 1/2 crock full. When I use frozen chicken, I don't add water. When I use unthawed, I might put 1/2-3/4 c. water in. If you are worried about the "safety", then start with frozen, but obviously will take longer (8 hours +/-)."
"Soooo delicious! Everyone I've made it for LOVES it! The peanut butter makes the sauce creamy/heavy in a nice comfort-food type of way! MAKE THIS RECIPE!!"
"This was both simple and delicious and my younger sister, who is very picky and hard to please, loved it and told me to be sure to make it again. Delicious!!! :)"
"Great with cabbage, snow peas, onions and red bell peppers too!"
"Love, love this recipe. I have made it at least 5 or 6 times! Hubby who is a picky eater, asks me to make it at least once a week. Use medium salsa for added kick. Definite keeper!!"
"Forgot to say I added 1/2 bag of broccoli slaw too for added crunch and nutrition."
"Really good! I had a huge leftover grilled chicken breast I shredded for this, and used some smokey citrus salsa mixed with mild Pace salsa for the sauce base. The smokey flavors really enhanced the sauce. Made double sauce for the two of us and it was just right. Hubby rarely says much but commented twice while eating that it was "pretty good" - high praise from him :-)"
"Wonderful flavors and easy to make with ingredients I have on hand. My husband really loved it and its great because I dont have to go out if I get the hankering for Pad Thai! Great recipe! Thanks"
"This recipe was definitely different then anything I've ever had. The flavor was great though! I doubled the recipe like everyone suggested. Thanks may1098 for your comments, I seasoned my chicken the way you suggested with cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. I also made it a little hard on myself and instead of microwaving the sauce I added it to the chicken while it was cooking. My boyfriend suggests next time I add more salsa to make the meal less creamy and add more spice for a better kick."
"This was yummy, but was not enough for two people as a main course. I would double the recipe, unless you are making this as a side dish."
"This recipe is AWESOME! I tripled all sauce ingredients and the salsa, doubled the chicken amount, and added veggies for fiber. I seasoned my chicken w/ garlic powder, cayenne, salt and pepper, then sauted it in a skillet. For the sauce, I used ALDI peanut butter (full-fat) and Aldi Santa Fe Southwestern salsa, as well as fresh-squeezed OJ and regular soy sauce (and the remaining ingredients listed). In addition, I julienned 1/3 of a cabbage and two large carrots. I cooked the vegetables down in a skillet w/ app. 2t of Canola oil and app. 1/4 c H20 for about 10-15 minutes. I then added the sauce and chicken to the veggies and cooked until heated through. Finally, I added the cooked fettucini noodles to the sauce mixture. We served this topped with unsalted dry roasted peanuts and minced cilantro. It was just as good the next day. We can't wait to make this again!"
