Finding a Wedding Rabbi
Have you heard yet about Mazel Moments? We're big fans. The mazelmoments™ website helps you plan any Jewish inspired event including a Jewish wedding, bar & bat mitzvah, bris milah, or kosher corporate event. Their extensive directories include venues, temples, rabbis, kosher caterers & restaurants, florists & chuppahs, judaica & ketubah artists, photographers & videographers, music & entertainment vendors, event planners, mohels and more within the Tri-State Area. Today, the mastermind behind it all, Cigall Goldman, shares her tips on finding a rabbi.
Congratulations! You've found the person you want to spend the rest of your life with! The hard part is over. At least it should be!
Whether you're planning a Jewish, interfaith and/or gay wedding, finding a wedding rabbi is an important decision. Nowadays so much of the wedding planning process focuses on the reception – the music, food, flowers, wedding cake, and so on. And there's nothing wrong with that! Celebrating has always been important in the Jewish culture. But the wedding ceremony should be the most meaningful part of the day. So take the time to find a rabbi that will perform a ceremony that fits your style as a couple, and will bring to life your relationship and love for each other.
If you belong to a temple or went to a synagogue-affiliated Hebrew school as a child, you may have a rabbi in mind who can perform your ceremony. We still urge you to go through the following steps to ensure he or she is a perfect fit.

Step 1: Picture Your Ideal Wedding Ceremony
Discuss your wedding ceremony with your fiancé. Not the budget. Not the guest list. Focus on the ceremony. Try to visualize yourselves walking down the aisle surrounded by your loved ones and making one of life's greatest commitments to each other. Is the ceremony lighthearted or serious? Traditional or highly personalized?
Factors to Consider when Choosing a Rabbi:
Denomination – Are you and/or your families Reform, Conservative Traditional, Conservative Egalitarian, Modern Orthodox, Orthodox, Reconstructionist, another denomination, or unaffiliated.
Style – Do you want a humorous rabbi, or do you prefer more serious wedding ceremonies? Do you want a rabbi that will provide explanations for your guests to understand all of the traditions and customs that you will be preforming?
Personalization – Jewish weddings involve many rituals, many of which can be modified or personalized to represent a couple's beliefs. From signing the ketubah to breaking the glass under the chuppah, it's important to find a rabbi that will work with you to make the rituals personal, should you be interested in doing so.
Premarital Counseling – Most rabbis will meet with the couple a number of times before the wedding. This helps to establish a relationship and make the ceremony more personal. But some rabbis will also go beyond the ceremony and discuss the marriage. These rabbis provide a form of premarital counseling: a platform in which you can discuss life goals and potential challenges with your fiancé that you may have never discussed before (children, money, moving, illness, etc). Find out the number of times your rabbi plans to meet with you, what you will be discussing, and if he or she provides tools or resources that will help strengthen your marriage.
Step 2: Research Rabbis
Mazelmoments.com makes it easy and fun to find the perfect rabbi, cantor, wedding officiant and other Jewish clergy (including those willing to perform interfaith ceremonies). You can read about their background and training, and read reviews from other brides or families. Finding a rabbi to perform an interfaith or same sex wedding ceremony is just the click of a button. If the rabbi is a congregational rabbi, we urge you to attend Shabbat services at their synagogue to get a sense of how they lead the services. That's one of the best ways to know if you jive with a rabbi's style.

Gold Monetization Scheme – Will it Lead to Further Fall in Gold prices?
Recently, Indian govt announced a particular scheme in their budget notes which took a lot of attention, especially gold merchants and speculators. With gold prices tumbling since last couple of years, the new scheme-if it works, would not only increase the supply of precious metal at domestic level, in-turn cuts our international gold imports which further depresses the price at global scale.

OLYMPIC rowing champion Helen Glover has said she is delighted to be back in a boat with Heather Stanning.
The 28-year-old from Penzance will be reunited with her London 2012 gold medal winning partner at the World Cup Rowing meet in Aigubelette, France, which starts on Friday.
After the Olympics, Stanning stepped aside from rowing in order to concentrate on her career in the military which saw the 29-year-old go out to Afghanistan with the Royal Artillery last year.
The duo won gold in the coxless pairs at the London games, Team GB's first gold of the Olympics.
Glover said her and Stanning will be thrown into the deep end this weekend, but it will be good for them.
"It will be her first proper race since London 2012 and that was quite some time ago," Glover said ahead of the race.
"But Heather has been back in training for a while now so we will be ready.
"This weekend will give us the chance to see where we are as we are coming up against a tough field.
"But it will provide us with a gauge of where we are as we look to defend our Olympic title in Rio in two years time."
During Stanning's hiatus, Glover rowed with Polly Swann.
The pair won three World Cup races together along with claiming gold at the European Championships in Belgrade earlier this month and the World Championships last year in Korea.
Despite being reunited with Stanning, Glover said the door would not necessarily be shut for Swann, who will row as part of the women's eight team in France.
Glover said: "Our coaches are watching how we are doing all the time and will make changes to the teams in the boats they will do so.
"There is competition from everyone which can only be good for the team and if Polly performs well there is nothing stopping her getting back in the coxless pairs boat."

Stoke City grab a 1-0 home win over Arsenal
Ramadan Sobhi came on for the final 20 minutes as Stoke grabbed...
Former Egyptian legendary striker Hossam Hassan and brother Ibrahim agree in principle to return to the club with Hossam as the manager. Negotiations with the Jordanian FA are to start soon.
Following the dismissal of Mido on Tuesday, Zamalek have moved quickly to replace their manager.
After meeting in the Northern Coast, it has been agreed that Hossam Hassan will take over next season and he is to be joined by brother Ibrahim, Tarek El-Said and Waleed Badr. The latter two will be taking over from Medhat Abdel-Hady and Sayed Metwally, who were only recently hired by Mido.
"We have reached an agreement with Hossam Hassan to take charge of the team starting from the new season," Mortada Mansour told reporters after a meeting between the current Jordan national team manager and Zamalek's board on Wednesday.
Negotiations with the Jordanian FA are expected to start soon since Hossam had only signed a renewal to his contract a few months ago.
Hossam Hassan had a two-year spell as Zamalek manager from 2009 until 2011, replacing Michel De Castal. Although the quality of the team's performances were elevated and their league position increased from mid-table, Hassan left without winning a title.

TempFileCollection Class
Represents a collection of temporary files.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The TempFileCollection type exposes the following members.
|Initializes a new instance of the TempFileCollection class with default values.
|Initializes a new instance of the TempFileCollection class using the specified temporary directory that is set to delete the temporary files after their generation and use, by default.
|TempFileCollection(String, Boolean)
|Initializes a new instance of the TempFileCollection class using the specified temporary directory and specified value indicating whether to keep or delete the temporary files after their generation and use, by default.
|Gets the full path to the base file name, without a file name extension, on the temporary directory path, that is used to generate temporary file names for the collection.
|Gets the number of files in the collection.
|Gets or sets a value indicating whether to keep the files, by default, when the Delete method is called or the collection is disposed.
|Gets the temporary directory to store the temporary files in.
|Adds a file name with the specified file name extension to the collection.
|AddExtension(String, Boolean)
|Adds a file name with the specified file name extension to the collection, using the specified value indicating whether the file should be deleted or retained.
|Adds the specified file to the collection, using the specified value indicating whether to keep the file after the collection is disposed or when the Delete method is called.
|Copies the members of the collection to the specified string, beginning at the specified index.
|Deletes the temporary files within this collection that were not marked to be kept.
|Releases the unmanaged resources used by the TempFileCollection and optionally releases the managed resources.
|Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Attempts to delete the temporary files before this object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Overrides Object.Finalize().)
|Gets an enumerator that can enumerate the members of the collection.
|Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
|Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
|Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Enables parallelization of a query. (Defined by ParallelEnumerable.)
|Converts an IEnumerable to an IQueryable. (Defined by Queryable.)
|Converts the elements of an IEnumerable to the specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.)
|Filters the elements of an IEnumerable based on a specified type. (Defined by Enumerable.)
|Infrastructure. Copies the elements of the collection to an array, starting at the specified index of the target array.
|Infrastructure. Gets the number of elements contained in the collection.
|Infrastructure. Gets a value indicating whether access to the collection is synchronized (thread safe).
|Infrastructure. Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the collection.
|Infrastructure. Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
|Infrastructure. Returns an enumerator that iterates through a collection.
TempFileCollection can be used to generate unique file names and to keep track of a list of files. This can be useful to ICodeCompiler implementers when managing a list of compiler-generated intermediate files, which are sometimes deleted after use.
To specify a directory to generate unique temporary file names in, use an appropriately overloaded constructor. You can also use a constructor overload to indicate whether files added to the collection should, if not specified otherwise when using the AddFile or AddExtension methods, be deleted when the collection is disposed or the Delete method is called.
A file in any directory can be added to an instance of TempFileCollection using the AddFile method.
To generate a unique name for a temporary file of a particular file extension, call AddExtension and specifiy the extension of the file name to generate. The AddExtension method will return a string consisting of a full path to a file name of the specified extension in the directory specified by the TempDir property. The AddExtension method will only return one unique file name per file name extension.
Both the AddFile and AddExtension methods have overloads that allow you to specify whether the files should be deleted when the collection is disposed or the Delete method is called.
The Delete method will delete all the files in the collection except those that are marked to be kept.
The BasePath property indicates a full path to the base file name, without a file name extension, used to generate the file names returned by the AddExtension method.
This class contains a link demand and an inheritance demand at the class level that applies to all members. A SecurityException is thrown when either the immediate caller or the derived class does not have full-trust permission. For details about security demands, see Link Demands and Inheritance Demands.
The following example shows the use of the TempFileCollection class and the AddExtension and AddFile methods.
using System; using System.CodeDom.Compiler; using System.IO; class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { // Create a directory in the current working directory. Directory.CreateDirectory("testDir"); TempFileCollection tfc = new TempFileCollection("testDir", false); // Returns the file name relative to the current working directory. string fileName = tfc.AddExtension("txt"); Console.WriteLine(fileName); // Name a file in the test directory. string file2Name = "testDir\\test.txt"; // Add the file to the temp directory and indicate it is to be kept. tfc.AddFile(file2Name, true); Console.WriteLine(tfc.Count); // Create and use the test files. FileStream fs1 = File.OpenWrite(fileName); FileStream fs2 = File.OpenWrite(file2Name); StreamWriter sw1 = new StreamWriter(fs1); StreamWriter sw2 = new StreamWriter(fs2); sw1.WriteLine("Test string"); sw2.WriteLine("Test string"); sw1.Close(); sw2.Close(); tfc.Delete(); Console.WriteLine(tfc.Count); try { // This call should succeed. File.OpenRead(file2Name); // This call should fail. File.OpenRead(fileName); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { Console.WriteLine(e.Message); } } }

On MCMA2 there was a tab called users and groups where you could edit player permissions and create permission groups. If it still exists where is it, if not how do I edit these things?
Where is MCMA3's equivalent to "users and groups"?
- 149 Views
- Last Post 16 January 2017
I've ran into the same problem! I've had a look at the UserData.json file and found for each user there is this:
"Permissions": [ "*" ], Not really sure what to do there, so I assume it's a feature that's still in development!
Mike posted this 16 January 2017
MCMA3 isn't getting this feature to manage in-game permissions for now. Instead it has a file manager to let you edit the YAML files directly. It might come as an AMP plugin later on.
The permissions inside UserData.json are for controlling AMPs own permissions (not anything to do with Minecraft)
Hey Mike, Thank's for the reply! I'm not attempting to do anything with permissions within Minecraft just the AMP web interface! Sorry for not mentioning that!

Kigali, 12th November 2014 - RwandAir, the national flag carrier of the Republic of Rwanda, is pleased to announce the successful IOSA registration under the IATA – IOSA registry.
The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) is an internationally recognized and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline which occurs every two years once the airline successfully completes the first audit.
Created by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), IOSA uses internationally recognized quality audit
principles and is designed to conduct audits in a standardized and consistent manner. IATA oversees the accreditation of audit organizations, ensures the continuous development of IOSA standards and practices and manages the IOSA registry. The audit organization contracted by RwandAir for its initial audit was GHS Aviation Group.
RwandAir has been successfully registered under the IATA – IOSA registry which is due to expire in June 2016 ; this follows the completion of the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) conducted on RwandAir operations system from 9th to 13th June 2014.RwandAir passed its initial 2014 IOSA audit with an exemplary report of, minimal findings and observations.
"This is a significant milestone for RwandAir. It has shown that the hard work being put in everyday by all employees is bearing fruit. RwandAir management takes pride and extends its appreciation to each and every employee at RwandAir who spent sleepless nights to see this dream come true. Passing the IOSA is vital to the sustainability of RwandAir as it
is a mandatory requirement to obtain IATA registration, Alliance memberships and code share agreements" said John Mirenge, the RwandAir Chief Executive Officer.
RwandAir is proud of this achievement and will continue working hard to maintain these international and highly recognized standards in the aviation industry while creating value for its stakeholders including shareholders, customers and employees amongst others.

Creative Million
In spite of having the world's largest and most varied skill base in the creative manufacturing sector, India only commands 2 % of the global market share. A broken value chain is the reason for it. Across the country, most artisans and small entrepreneurs work in isolation, having to depend on middlemen for access to raw material, capital or even getting their product into the market. What is also lacking is a steady flow of orders which renders artisans helpless, not knowing from where or when their next source of income will come in. And women, who comprise a majority of the workforce, are at the bottom of the value chain, sometimes earning less than half what the men doing the same work, earning less than half what their male counterparts do.
As these artisans are best suited to feeding fashion and lifestyle markets that are growing at a great pace globally, it is clear that it is the fragmented value chain that is keeping this wonderfully skilled population from realising their true potential.
Mission Creative Million
Industree has initiated Mission Creative Million focusing on celebrating the skills and cultural legacy of creative producers. Using the power of technology and the smart phone revolution, it aims to startup 30,000 small inclusive enterprises impacting one million artisans who will be tied together on a single platform, in the next 10 years. It strives to create economic and social impact for artisans by creating an ecosystem that will help them access skilling, capital, design and market aggregation. This mission envisions a Creative Revolution of the calibre of the 'White Revolution' in the dairy industry or the 'Green Revolution' in agriculture, by harnessing the cultural and entrepreneurial skills of the artisans who form the soul of the creative manfacturing indusry.
Creative Million is being anchored by Industree Foundation in partnership with impact organisations like Social Venture Partners India, Womanity Foundation - Geneva, Grassroots Business Fund - Washington, technology consultancies Mindtree and Sonata Software, and design school Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology; we envision our partner network growing further as the project builds momentum.

The Montreal Motorcycle Show: A sneak peek at the latest models in the street/performance, adventure, dual sport/off-road, sport, scooter and three wheeler categories
February 13, 2017 at 10:32 AM
Montreal, February 13, 2017 – With dozens of new models on display this year, the Montreal Motorcycle Show is bound to delight all motorcycle fans, from beginners to seasoned riders. From Friday, February 24 to Sunday, February 26 at the Palais des congrès de Montréal, Show attendees will discover the latest innovations from the world's top manufacturers: Harley-Davidson, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Suzuki, BMW, Honda, Ducati, Triumph, and many more.
In addition to the categories presented below, the industry's leading manufacturers will also unveil new models in the small displacement, retro and street groups. Here's just a taste of the highly anticipated 2017 models featured at this year's Show.
Ducati Monster 797: An icon within everyone's reach
Sporty, compact and minimalist, yet sophisticated and contemporary, this bike is the gateway to the Ducati world for those looking for an easy, intuitive ride and sheer sports enjoyment. Its elegant, muscular and quintessential Monster design, perfectly integrates the wide handlebar, tank, trellis frame, engine and double-sided swingarm. Its clean, slim line enhances the designer elements that are in fact structural components, such as the traditional Ducati trellis frame created as a single piece. Every element expresses a high level of stylistic and technical research.
Kawasaki Z900: Ultimate supernaked performance
Each twist of the throttle is rewarded with crisp, exhilarating acceleration and a sublime balance of power and dynamism. Its ultra-light chassis lends itself to spirited sport riding and maximum pleasure. With its Horizontal Back-link suspension, the shock unit is almost horizontal, and because it's also very close to the bike's centre of gravity, the shock unit greatly contributes to mass centralization and improved handling.
Suzuki GSX250R: The urban sportbike
Whether in town or on the open road, this fully faired street machine brings the excitement and satisfaction of Suzuki's sportbike heritage to a broader audience. Featuring athletic good looks, responsive yet easy-to-control performance, a broad power band, nimble handling, class leading fuel efficiency and a comfortable riding position, the GSX250R is as at home on the daily commute as well as touring long distances. Every aspect related is optimized to tap the bike's full potential and deliver pure delight.
Yamaha FZ-10: Calling all thrill-seekers
Power, agility and ease of handling: this bike offers all this and much more thanks to its R1-derived engine, chassis and fully adjustable suspension. Experienced riders will appreciate its comfortable, upright riding position, torquey power delivery and corner-carving precision. The lights, intake ports, combustion chamber and camshafts have all been redesigned to achieve outstanding "rideability" in a wide variety of conditions. Its distinctive exterior style is defined by a dynamic mass-forward silhouette.
BMW R 1200 GS Rallye and Exclusive: Perfection meets passion
The GS is second to none, as amply evidenced by its multiple awards and outstanding road tests by the trade press. Its latest model goes a step further in terms of touring and off-road performance. Its 125 HP (92 kW) flat twin boxer engine, at once high-torque and economical, guarantees riding pleasure no matter where you're headed. Its reliability is legendary, as is its responsiveness. And with new electronic assistance features that include electronic suspension adjustment, the R 1200 GS has once again become the benchmark for the ultimate in riding – at the push of a button.
KTM 1090 Adventure R: The world at your fingertips
Its suspension, off-road wheels and tough, fuel-efficient engine are ready to rumble. Decades of rally victories roar within. This model offers the same state-of-the-art technology as the celebrated KTM 1290 Adventure R, and even though its engine capacity is somewhat smaller, with 125 hp, it's still big on power.
Kawasaki Versys-X 300 ABS: Your ticket to adventure
Designed as the ideal travel partner, the Versys-X 300 is built for adventure. Its 296 cc twin-cylinder engine makes it a one of a kind machine. Its lightweight chassis and long-travel suspension provide sporty and nimble handling, whether for commuting or long-distance riding.
Dual sport/off-road
Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled: Straight out of the California desert and mountains
The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled is an enduro version, inspired by the world of off-road motorcycles that made history in the United States in the 60s and 70s. Its name refers to standard motorcycles over 500 cc that were modified by riders for use in the California desert. Its strong off-road character is present throughout its design, from the higher seat and reinforced frame to the fully adjustable suspension, front headlight grid and engine protection plates. Rounding out the Scrambler Desert Sled are new Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tires on spoked 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels.
Honda CRF250 Rally: Adventure calls
A compact and sophisticated liquid-cooled DOHC 249 cc single-cylinder 4-stroke engine produces smooth and consistent torque at low rpm, plus excellent high rpm performance. The engine's wide spread of power makes the CRF250 easy and confidence-inspiring to ride, while delivering impressive fuel economy. Enhancements to the engine's intake and exhaust systems boost horsepower by a full 10% over the 2016 model.
Suzuki RMX 450Z: Hit the trails
Descended from the World Championship winning RM-Z450, the RMX 450Z is rewriting the rules for serious off-road riders. Key features include a powerful 449 cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke engine and a slim, aggressive frame and body. Also setting it apart are its electric starter, full function dual-mode instrument cluster, enduro lighting and added protection for its chassis.
Suzuki GSX-R1000R: The king of sportbikes
The Suzuki GSX-R1000R is redefining what it means to be the ultimate sportbike. Its chassis makes it the lightest, most compact, most aerodynamic and best handling GSX-R1000 ever. Cradled in the new aluminum frame is an all-new engine that uses an exclusive variable valve timing system and ride-by-wire throttle bodies for a wide spread of power, while delivering smooth and precise throttle response. Its advanced electronics package includes selectable performance modes, with the motorcycle enhancing and fine tuning rider inputs.
Ducati SuperSport: A new concept of sport
Always at ease, whether in the big city or out on the highway, this bike is decisive when faced with out-of-town hairpin turns. The SuperSport balances comfort and versatility with no compromise made to its sport profile. Excitement and riding pleasure are guaranteed. This road-going sportbike allows one and all to indulge their sport instincts anywhere, anytime. Its lines create dynamic shapes that are visually compact and light. Its design integrates elements typical of Ducati sportbikes, such as the single-sided swingarm, sculpted tank and compact lateral silencer with two overlapping exists, which leave the rear wheel, with its "Y" spoke design, fully visible.
Honda CBR 1000RR: Total control, total enjoyment
This model is lighter, more powerful and easier to handle. Its 16-valve DOHC engine has received an impressive array of improvements for 2017, resulting in a 10 hp increase and contributing to a significant overall weight reduction. Yet even with a 14% advance in power-to-weight ratio (between comparable ABS models), the new CBR maintains its user-friendly character, due in large part to its cutting-edge electronics package, a key feature of the bike's Next Stage Total Control design concept.
Yamaha YZF-R6: Innovation that leaves the competition in the dust
Since its debut in 1999, the R6 has been the bike of choice for serious 600 class riders and racers. For 2017, it features a host of improvements, including new ABS brakes with larger front rotors, new 43 mm fully adjustable inverted forks, and an R1 inspired body design that's sure to turn heads. The R6 is full of innovation and technology you won't find anywhere else.
Vespa 946 RED: Back from the future
Vespa 946 is renewing its mythic status by celebrating its traditional values, from the handle grips and fairing proportions to the classic curve of its saddle. It also offers ABS braking and ASR traction control. The 4-stroke 125 cc single cylinder engine is a pre-emptive strike at requirements that may by on the horizon. And it guarantees the best performance in its category. Electronic injection, three-valve distribution, reduced friction and improved fluid dynamics sharply lower consumption and emissions, establishing a new benchmark.
Piaggio Liberty 150: Evolution and rebirth
Its 16-inch front and 14-inch rear wheels deliver excellent stability and the sensation of climbing onto a motorcycle. With ABS technology and LED lights, the Liberty 150 is stylish, lightweight and easy to ride. It offers great performance while remaining environmentally friendly. It may be new, but it remains faithful to the values that have made the Piaggio brand such a success.
Three wheelers
Spyder F3 Limited: Comfort defined
The F3 Limited offers a relaxed riding position, ultimate cruising comfort and lots of storage to get you through the city or out on the open road. Additional cargo capacity and improved wind protection make it ready for extended adventures. Its unique UFit system lets riders precisely position the pegs and choose the handlebar based on their preferred riding style. Its smooth-riding rear suspension features manual air preload adjustment to optimize rider, passenger and cargo performance.
Polaris Slingshot SLR: Bolder than ever
Under the Slingshot hood: SLR branded exhaust manifold cover and open air intake. With its two-tone paint and colour frame accents, full body graphics, wind deflector and composite brake rotors, it makes quite the statement. The cockpit features cut & sew sport seats, a Sparco steering wheel and an interior LED lighting kit.
Harley-Davidson Freewheeler: The devil's in the details
Stripped down hot rod style on an easy-handling frame that lets you roll with the confidence of three wheels. You get classic cruiser lines and styling details, such as bobtail rear fenders, slash cut pipes, chrome headlight nacelle, 12-inch mini ape hangers and Enforcer aluminum wheels. The acceleration is instant, thanks to the low-end torque of the all-new Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine. And the 49 mm front forks and adjustable rear suspension ensure an ultra-smooth ride.
Campagna Motors V13R: The roadster with character
Its 1,150 pounds of muscle contain a new mono swingarm, a belt-driven no mess, no maintenance driveline, and an aftermarket ready exhaust system. It also comes in 12 colours. The critics report that it accelerates like a motorcycle and brakes like a car.
All the major brands will be at the Show to unveil the all-new lineup of 2017 models, as well as the latest accessories and technology. Don't miss it!

Managing weight, Education, Activity and Support over a 12 week programme.

It keeps you feeling well and good about yourself
'It helps when you are feeling sluggish'.
'I like being in the fresh air, it warms you up and give you enthusiasm and breaks down barriers'

The programme covers lots of things such as:
· Individual/Group sessions

For: The Institute of Contemporary And Emerging Worship Studies, St. Stephen's University, Essentials Red Online Worship History Course with Dan Wilt
Remembering is not one of my strong points, at least in certain areas. If I meet you for the first time, I will invariably ask you what your name is a few times before I get it. When we go to a movie, a week or two later I will not be able to tell you the main character's name. I am admittedly a person who lives most of her life in the here and now. While I see that as primarily a good thing, a fresh and engaging way to live my life, it does mean that I can miss out on important lessons and resources that are embedded in the past.
This week we started reading a book about the importance of forming spirituality by living the Christian year (Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, etc.) along with all its implications. Ritual has very little appeal to me, and I will usually look for a way to extract a modern and meaningful application from any liturgy or tradition. That's not a bad idea, but after reading a few chapters in this book (Ancient-Future Time by Robert E. Webber) I realised that no one has ever explained the profound reason and purpose behind all of these traditions.
Simply stated, remembering all of these events is a way to live our lives in the pattern of Christ. We suffer with Christ, we are crucified with Christ, we die with Christ, we are buried with Christ, we are raised with Christ, we live with Christ. It is turning our lives from one where we live our own way with our own patterns and behaviours to one that centres and takes its cues from the life of Christ. We proclaim his life and death not only in our words and worship, but in our seasons. Cool, huh?
I don't exactly know what the implications of this will be in my life. At the very least, I will think of Jesus and his life more often as the calendar months flip by. Hopefully, some of what I am learning and thinking about will also show up in a meaningful way to enrich our faith community. Above all, let us be a people who reflect the entire life of Jesus in every part of our living. Let the place where this eternal life of God touches our history become a place where we can touch the eternal.
This is Jazz watching some of this week's video teaching for Essentials Red. Honestly, she really does this all on her own, this is not a set-up shot.
Friday, February 20, 2009
For: The Institute of Contemporary And Emerging Worship Studies, St. Stephen's University, Essentials Red Online Worship History Course with Dan Wilt
I am in Beaverton, Ontario at a national leadership gathering for the Vineyard Church of Canada. And doing my homework for Red Essentials. Having discussed where we are going as a church movement and sitting in a lot of meetings in the past 24 hours, I am starting to realise that the word meeting has become a bit of a misrepresented word in our world. Meeting is, at its very basic, a coming together of two or more. I meet with God. I meet with friends. I meet a stranger. I meet with colleagues to get some work done.
A church meeting is simply a coming together of two or more people who are joined to Jesus. This can happen anywhere and anytime and anyplace. This week in the online worship course I am taking, we explored the elements of time and space in regard to encountering God and our subsequent worship of him. It was amazing to read where and how and when people will find God present and near to them. There just are no limits to the experience. God is always present.
My challenge is not as much to get to a meaningful church meeting during the week, but to let a lot of them happen in my life every day. Meeting is not a proper noun. It is a verb. Let us meet with God and with each other often: in person, on the phone, via email and letters, online, in whatever way we can, let us not forget to meet.
Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching. - from Hebrews 10 The Message
This is the view of St. Joseph's Oratory in Montreal. I like to go there alone or with friends.

three in one
Anyway, on Monday morning there was another clumping together in our household, a collision if you will. Dean and Tea (the little black cat) and the shower door all tried to occupy the same time and space for a brief moment. If you know anything about physics, this simply cannot be done. These three items (one object and two living beings) are not divine nor members of the trinity, so existing within each other is not possible. Something had to give. Surprisingly, out of the three, the shower door was the one that did not come out unscathed. Dean gave way to Tea but threw himself off-balance in doing so; he grabbed onto the shower door, and the shower door gave way to a greater force.
It is amazing that the strong will give way to the weak, most often at cost to themselves. I have seen Dean do this before, putting himself in a difficult position in order to protect a weaker person. It is one of the most beautiful characteristics about him and the sure sign of a trustworthy leader. He will not put others at risk in order to protect himself. He will not mow over the lowly in order to maintain his present status. He will go out of his way to guard those who are in a vulnerable position. And he often pays a cost. Not many may see this, but he pays. Sacrifice always costs, otherwise it would not be true sacrifice. Sacrifice that is acknowledged has some built-in payoff, but sacrifice that no one sees is truly sacrifice.
There are many who sacrifice daily in their lives and we do not know about it. We do not know the time they spend in prayer, lifting us up before God, or the effort they put out to provide resources that we enjoy, or the preparation they go through so that we can eat and live and participate in life in a full way, or the times they rework their own plans so that they can make something happen for us.
I want to say thank you to Dean who does all that for me, and to my family and to many others that I don't know about. Let me never take their sacrifice for granted. And let me never take the sacrifice of Jesus lightly. It makes this wondrous life of grace possible.
These are some benches waiting for someone to occupy them outside St. Joseph's Oratory in Montreal.

Love This Body
For: The Institute of Contemporary And Emerging Worship Studies, St. Stephen's University, Essentials Blue Online Worship Theology Course with Dan Wilt
A few weeks ago I woke up singing this phrase over and over: I Love This Body. Those are not words that would normally come out of my mouth, so the fact that I was singing them in my sleep made me think that perhaps I should also be saying them while I was awake. To be honest, these words make me uncomfortable.
I don't really go around saying, "I love my body," and yet it is the most intimate, miraculous, and mysterious gift of God that I experience every day. One need only read any medical writings to get a sense of how intricate this marvellous synergy of tissue and bone and blood and muscle and all kinds of other good stuff is. Plus, it is intertwined with a unique personality! This body is my most constant reminder that God loves me and is as close to me as my next breath. Every day that I wake up and breathe and run and eat and go to the bathroom and talk and think, I am crazy with gratitude and giddy with delight.
The second concept that came to mind when I heard this phrase was the body of Jesus. His body held the divine and the human within its skin - how, I don't know. And when we drink wine and eat bread in remembrance of him, we somehow eat his flesh and blood and partake in his redemptive life and death. How, I don't know how. Were it not for that body, I would not be alive, so I reverently say...I love this body of yours, Jesus.
The body of Christ is also what the writer of Corinthians calls the church - those who follow Jesus and submit their lives to God. We are part of one big life, one big story, one big moving, vibrant entity. "The beautiful thing is to join with a church that has gathered and find yourself looking around thinking, 'What could this group of people possibly have in common?' The answer of course, would be new humanity. A church is where the two groups with blue hair - young men and older women - sit together and somehow it all fits together in a Eucharistic sort of way." [1] We are this body and I want to love it like Jesus does, like a young man watching his beloved grow into her beauty, flushed with the glow of love.
I had a lot of fun with this project, thanks in large part to a very willing and capable Dean (best husband/sound engineer ever) and my friends and co-learners and lovely "body people" at the Wednesday night group. Every time I sing the words, "I Love This Body," it is a becoming truer and truer. And I also hear Jesus singing it over me, my church group, Montreal, and the world. *broad smile*

showers and theology classes
So this morning in the shower, I told God, "I feel empty."
And I heard an answer, "Empty? Like a tomb-on-resurrection-day empty?"
God is very funny some days.
Yesterday morning I was sitting in my Introduction to Theology class, and in the middle of a surprisingly interesting lecture on church history, I had a flash of insight.
Change is all about death and resurrection. Change is about being able to die over and over and over again. It is letting go of those things we already know and are familiar with and recognise, about saying good-bye to life as we know it. But more importantly, it is about hope. It is about being able to see that there is a way of living beyond this. There is life after death - it will be different - but it will be life. Jesus was different after the resurrection. His closest friends did not recognise him at first. They had really thought that he was the ONE to save them from bad things in their situation, but it all went so horribly wrong when he died. Death is like that - it looks like things have gone horribly wrong. But it only looks that way. God is never put off by death; he just uses it as raw material for resurrection.
Those times when I feel empty, like things are not working out, I am standing in the tomb. I am looking in the wrong place for life. I am looking for the remains of something old instead of a brand new body. I get stuck at the death part and don't move into resurrection. I know what the dying thing looked like and I have become attached to it, but the resurrected thing - I'm not so sure. It is different, strange, unfamiliar, and unsettling. I have a hard time seeing life beyond this unsettling place, but if I am to live, I must.
Welcome to the death and resurrection cycle. It will happen often, if I let it.

For: The Institute of Contemporary And Emerging Worship Studies, St. Stephen's University, Essentials Blue Online Worship Theology Course with Dan Wilt
One of the recurring thoughts that I came across in my readings this week was that worship is a response. It is the appropriate reaction to encountering God, to experiencing his love, to living on his earth, to viewing his creation. What exactly that response looks like is hard to pin down. We think of majestic songs, intimate whispers, loud shouts, bowing down, sacrifices, caring for the poor, submission, exaltation, crying and laughing and jumping. All of these can be appropriate, but what is appropriate today, right now?
Today, after a week of reading theology texts and doing assignments for three courses (this one plus two university courses), my thoughts are fuzzy and scattered. I can't remember what I think about every aspect of the Trinity or my humanity or what all the names of the theologians were in the 20th century. The subject is too bright to look at directly and I am tired. So I sit here. And I close my eyes. And I take a deep breath. And I rest for a moment. This is my worship today.
Here is a poem I read for my Spirituality class which illustrates a wonderful response to God:
Sharon's Christmas Prayer
She was five,
sure of the facts,
and recited them
with slow solemnity
convinced every word
was revelation.
She said
they were so poor
they had only peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
to eat
and they went a long way from home
without getting lost. The lady rode
a donkey, the man walked, and the baby
was inside the lady.
They had to stay in a stable
with an ox and an ass (hee-hee)
but the Three Rich Men found them
because a star lited the roof
Shepherds came and you could
pet the sheep but not feed them.
Then the baby was borned.
And do you know who he was?
Her quarter eyes inflated
to silver dollars,
The baby was God.
And she jumped in the air
whirled round, dove into the sofa
and buried her head under the cushion
which is the only proper response
to the Good News of the Incarnation.

the world as I see it
This week we had to put together a brief statement that reflected our worldview or the big story as we know it. Here is my attempt:

I love my metro pass
Yesterday, I breathed a sigh of relief. I was once again covered for the month, free to travel as much as I wanted, here and there, to and fro, to stop in at friends' places for coffee, to run downtown for a movie or lunch with the gang, to spontaneously make a stop on the way home from class to shop for a niece's birthday or a random gift. No running of the numbers in my head necessary. I am free of the worry of running out of tickets before the month is done.
Last night I realised that this is exactly the place I am trying to live in as it regards our finances and overall provision in life. To be continuously counting and measuring and hoping not to run out takes a lot of fun and enjoyment out of the journey. And in the end, it will probably work out about the same when I add it up.
A week or two ago, I was reading a story in Matthew 14 about Jesus feeding the crowd. Bunches of people had been following him and listening to him teach and watching him do some pretty incredible things. At the end of a long day, they were hungry. The disciples immediately came up with a perfectly logical solution: send the people away into town so they can buy food, because there's nothing out here in the middle of nowhere. Jesus' reply was classic: there is no need to dismiss them. You give them supper. And they took what they had and Jesus made it enough.
You see, when you are next to Jesus, there is no need to go anywhere else to get what you need. We are so used to getting spiritual input from church, food from the grocery store, hardware at Canadian Tire, books from Chapters, and clothes from the mall. We know where to go for what we need; it seems logical. But Jesus is way beyond our small logic. When we are with him, we have access to everything we need. When we leave him to go elsewhere for our daily needs, we end up spending part of ourselves that we don't have to, and this results in feeling needy and counting and calculating to see if there will be enough. With Jesus, there is always enough. He prepaid. Not just for a month but for your whole life. That feeling of freedom from having a monthly metro pass, that's just a fraction of the freedom we can feel when we know that God will provide for all our needs in Christ Jesus.
I love my metro pass. Thank you, OPUS.

I saw two movies in two days this last week. On Thursday night in our Christian Spirituality class, we viewed part of the "Jesus" film - that time in his life dealing mostly with his public ministry. On Friday night I went with some friends to see the movie, "Taken," with Liam Neeson. It is the story of a father whose daughter is kidnapped, and it chronicles his relentless journey to rescue her. Both of the movies have their share of bad acting, lack of continuity, and special effects that fall short of being truly "special," but none of this really matters in the end; what matters is the story.
What I find most attractive about Jesus is that he came - he didn't stay away. He walked on dirt roads and got hungry and tired and truly seemed to understand the need and fear and desperation of those around him, because he responded with compassion and action instead of judgment or indifference. This is not the picture of a God who is "other" and distant. This is not a God who waits for humans to make the first move. This is not a God whom one cannot touch and encounter, but this nearness poses a problem. The part of the living human named Jesus that is most challenging for me is the mystery of being limited. He could not be in more than one place at one time. He could only respond to what was in front of him. He existed only in a specific time and place. The limited colliding with the limitless must put some constraints on God, and I find it hard to envision and trust a God who has limits. How can a mere person be a true picture of God?
At the end of the movie, "Taken," I sat in my chair for a bit and thought about the character of the young girl. She lied to her father, she disobeyed, she was selfish and immature, she was distant from him, she made some bad choices; she was just like I am many times in relation to Our Father. But that didn't matter to her father. When she was in danger, he sprang into action. He used all his resources and his skills and connections to get to her and to free her. Anyone that opposed him or got in his way was soon paying for that decision. However, the young girl had no idea that her father was turning the world upside down to rescue her - all she knew was that she was in a very bad situation with bad people and that things were getting worse and worse with no end in sight. Her father seemed very distant, and she felt very alone and afraid and unprotected. She was being sold as a slave and it seemed like no one cared, but it wasn't true. It just wasn't true.
To me, Jesus is the personification of God's relentlessness. He came. And he keeps coming. He will never stop pursuing us. He will never give up on us. He will always make a way for us to be rescued. He is always thinking about us with affection and longing. Even when I feel my most alone and forgotten, he is already on his way, working behind the scenes, reaching out to rescue me. The fact that I cannot see Him nor feel Him is not the point. The point is that He will never leave me nor forget about me. Fathers never do.
