When I entered personal faith as a teen, the first verse I memorized was Hebrews 11:1:
"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. " (NIV)
Faith doesn't mean we need to know it all or even see it all to believe. But faith brings understanding, even if that doesn't include all-encompassing knowledge.
This month, we will dive in to Hebrews 11 and discover what it means to live by faith. This chapter lists many people, many "ancients" (Hebrews 11:2), who lived by faith. Not perfectly. Not with all the answers. But by faith.
These people and their stories remind us that we will not likely find all the answers in our lifetimes. We won't see around every turn. We won't experience stumble-free paths.
But we can feel God's presence, experience evidence of His hand, feel His love.
"By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible." (Hebrews 11:3)
We will look at many of the people included in this chapter of faith: Joseph, Moses, Abraham, Rahab, and more. We'll jump around in the verses a little bit, but it's the people and their faith that matter.
It's about these lives God planned to journey in faith (Hebrews 11:39-40), affecting our lives now, as members of His one body.
It's about choosing faith and living by it because of His love.
Stay tuned, and be ready to dig in to these stories to witness how monumental living by faith can be.
What story in Hebrews 11 captures your attention when you read through?

EducationI have been studying languages and math for thirty-nine years, and chess for forty-two. I have a profound and almost unparalleled knowledge of these subjects which, along with twenty years of teaching experience --as well as the creation of my own methods-- enables me to teach far more effectively than can the vast majority of tutors.
ExperienceI have been teaching English, Spanish, Latin, and math for exactly twenty years. One two-hour lesson is the equivalent of at least an entire week at any educational institution. My dead-on precise step-by-mini-step explanations, coupled with a singular patience and perseverance make any subject far easier to understand than it could be made to by almost anyone else. Teaching is a passion, and the ability to teach effectively --although it must be developed over the course of many years-- is essentially innate. A degree is no longer a guarantee of competency, just as not having one is not necessarily an indication of incompetency. A great teacher is essentially born with the talent, and no amount of schooling to obtain a fancy degree can produce that talent.
HobbiesNature study, hiking, camping, photography, language, classical and pre-classical music, chess, religion, history, health and nutrition. I have no interest in vanity and superficiality, but only in what is related to true beauty and permanence.

No one expected robust holiday sales from either Macy's (M) or Kohl's (KSS). And in that respect, neither department store giant disappointed with last night's revelation that same-store sales in November and December fell more than 2%.
The news has fueled a massive selloff in both stocks — Kohl's alone has plunged 20% today — that has spilled over onto the broader retail sector. And analysts are at odds over how to react to the news.
It wasn't a happy holiday for Macy's (M), or Kohl's (KSS) for that matter. Both department store giants warned late Wednesday of lackluster holiday sales, which bodies poorly for brick-and-mortar retailers.
Kohl's plunged 20% to $41.30 in recent trading, a loss that completely wiped out the stock's gains over the past two months. Macy's fell 14.2% to $30.72.
The spillover, meanwhile, splashed onto other retailers, with J.C. Penney (JCP), falling 6.6%, while Dillard's (DDS) dropped almost 11% and Target (TGT) declining almost 2.8%. The SPDR S&P Retail ETF sank more than 3% to $43.79.
Shares of Macy's (M) and Kohl's (KSS) soared today –and gave a big boost to other retail stocks – after both companies beat earnings forecasts. Macy's was the big winner, rising more than 17% and winning huge praise after announcing plans to close stores. But is the retail rally really warranted?
All three major U.S. stock indices hit record highs today thanks to a rally in oil prices, good economic data and better-than-expected earnings from Macy's (M). It's quite a big deal. It marks the first time that all three indices posted record closes on the same day since Dec. 31, 1999
Macy's (M) isn't the only U.S. department store having a good day on the heels of better-than-feared fiscal second quarter financial results. Kohl's (KSS) share price surged more than 16% after it reported a surprise earnings increase.
It's been an up and down day for equities, with an early rally by U.S. indices fading and then recovering as oil prices fluctuated, tech shares weakened and concerns mounted about consumer spending.
Kohl's (KSS) plunged 11.4% after the big box retailer posted an unexpected drop in sales, making it the latest big retailer to disappoint Wall Street. And Apple
(AAPL) shares fell 2.6%.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gave up early gains, falling into the red before rebounding in afternoon market action to inch 0.1% higher to 17728. The S&P 500 was flat, and the Nasdaq Composite lost 0.49%.
Investors this week got slammed by gloomy forecasts from some of the country's largest retailers such as Macy's (M) and Gap (GPS), fueling concerns about consumer spending and a sharp sell-off in retailers
Macy's fell 2.2% today while the SPDR S&P Retail ETF (XRT) fell 0.66% today and the Market Vectors Retail ETF (RTH) dipped 2 %.
U.S. crude oil dipped 0.2% to a recent $46.14 a barrel, after trading as high as $47.02 earlier in the session. Energy shares turned lower as oil prices faded.
In other news, General Electric (GE) has fallen 0.8% to $30.10 after JPMorgan initiated coverage of its stock with an Underweight rating.
Jack in the Box (JACK) has jumped 14.6% after the fast-food chain beat earnings and sales forecasts.
Monsanto (MON) climbed 9% on reports that it could be a takeover target.
Shares of Kohl's (KSS) got market down today after the big-box department store chain disappointed investors with a bigger than expected drop in sales and profit during the third quarter.
Kohl's share price sagged 3% to $56.15
The retail giant earned 70 cents a share during the third quarter, down from 81 cents a share last year, as revenue fell to $4.37 billion from $4.44 billion. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had expected per-share earnings of 74 cents and revenue of $4.40 billion.
Retailers have watched store traffic and sales weaken amid tighter consumer spending. The holiday shopping season is expected to be very promotional, which cuts into retailers' profit margins. But falling fuel costs could be a boon to some.
But As a middle-market department store, Kohl's faces added pressure, namely competition on the high end from Macy's (M). and pressure on the lower end from the likes of Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), Target (TGT), TJX (TJX) and dollar stores.
Last year, the retailer hired Michelle Gass, a former Starbucks executive, as its new chief customer officer. And in May, the company unveiled plans to revive sales growth.
Last month, however, Kohl's warned its full-year earnings would hit the low end of its view due to weak October sales.
Up less than 4% during the past 12 months, Kohl's has lagged the broader stock market and fallen almost 12% since hitting a 52-week high in September.
Stifel analyst Richard Jaffe remains bullish, citing a number of company initiatives aimed at driving long-term performance. As he writes:
While near-term uncertainty exists, we remain hopeful longer term for several reasons: 1) the loyalty program has been rolled out across the country; 2) half of all beauty departments have been upgraded; and 3) most importantly, new marketing efforts and the new merchants should begin to have a significant impact. At these levels, we believe the stock is undervalued and reiterate our Buy rating and 12 month target price of $68.
U.S. stocks opened in the green Thursday, following global markets higher as investors focused on retailers and weekly jobless claims with the S&P 500 and the Dow topping Tuesday's record closing levels
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 32 points, or 0.2% to 17,641.56, while the S&P 500 index climbed 2.28 points, 0.11% to 2,040.85.
The Nasdaq, meanwhile, rose 8 points, or 0.17% to 4,683.6.
Among the morning's big movers, DreamWorks Animation (DWA) surged 19.6% in premarket trading on deal talk, while J.C. Penney (JCP) fell almost 8% following mixed results reported late Wednesday.
And Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) rose 2% after the retail giant bested estimates.
Early Thursday the Labor Department revealed that the number of new claims for jobless benefits rose more than expected last week, climbing by 12,000 to 2390,000, yet still remained at a level indicating an improving employment market.
Japanese stocks extended a three-day winning streak, whiel in Europe, the FTSE 100 slipped slightly lower.
Crude oil prices continued to fall in the wake of comments by Saudi Arabia's oil minister,slipping to $76.11 a barrel, while gold inched higher.
In corporate news, Kohl's (KSS) fell 2.43% in premarket trade after sales and earnings missed forecasts for the third quarter.
The Wall Street Journal said toy maker Hasbro (HAS) is in early talks to buy DreamWorks, citing persons familiar with the matter. Hasbro shares fell 2.56% premarket.
Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) remained unchanged after announcing the purchase of the Duracell battery business from Procter & Gamble (PG) in a deal valued at $4.7 billion.
Retailers generally posted better than expected same-store sales reports in October, adding to conviction that consumer confidence is indeed increasing in the U.S. Excluding drug stores, same-store sales rose 4,7%, ahead of expectations for 4.3% compiled by Thomson Reuters. Among the big winners was Macy's (M), whose same-store sales rose 4.1%, versus expectations for 3.1% growth. Macy's shares rose 4.9% in midday trading. Hurricane Sandy created substantial disruptions.
"More than 200 Macy's and Bloomingdale's stores were closed for some period of time (ranging from a few hours to multiple days) as a result of Hurricane Sandy. The company is confident that it can make up some or most of the lost sales through the remainder of the quarter," the company said in a statement. And yet, Macy's still boosted sales guidance.
"We are feeling confident about our prospects for the upcoming holiday season and have increased our sales guidance for the fall season, despite the interruption caused by Hurricane Sandy in the first few days of the fourth quarter," said CEO Terry Lundgren.
TJX (TJX) said same-store sales grew 7%, against expectations for a 4.3% rise. The company raised its third quarter and full-year guidance. More surprising: much of that strength came in Europe.
"We were particularly pleased with TJX Europe's 11% comp sales increase, achieved over a 5% increase last year, as we continue to see increasingly strong trends in this important growth vehicle," said CEO Carol Meyrowitz.
Shares are up 2.2.
Kohl's (KSS) shares rose 2.7% after the company also beat expectations, with 3.3% growth, versus estimates of 1.1%. Kohl's said it will no longer report sales on a monthly basis.
Ross Stores (ROST), however, fell 7% after the company posted 4% growth, below expectations for 4.5% growth. Ross Stores also raised EPS expectations by a penny.
Retail sales growth in September was down from last month, and well below numbers from a year ago, but some companies were able to eek out strong gains, while others floundered.
Overall, same-store sales for the retailers that report on a monthly basis rose 0.8%, below expectations for 1.6%. But those numbers were skewed by Walgreen's ugly sales report; taking the drug stores out, sales met expectations for 3.6% growth, as calculated by Thomson Reuters.
Department store Kohl's (KSS) posted much weaker than expected same-store sales in September, sending shares down 2% in early trading. A same-store-sales drop of 2.7% was more severe than the 0.2% drop analysts had been expecting. Nonetheless, the company maintained its third quarter guidance. On a pre-recorded call, the company said sales slowed in its fashion, fine jewelry and junior's divisions, among tohers. Junior's was down by double-digits. Shares fell 0.7%.
Target (TGT) posted 2.1% same-store sales growth, 0.1% below expectations. The company was facing a outgh comparison from last year, when sales rose 5.23%. Similarly, Costco's (COST) same-store sales rose 6%, slightly better than expectations, against a 12% gain the year before. Shares of both companies rose more than 1%.
Gap (GPS) once again beat expectations, posting 6% same-store sales growth against expectations for 5.3% growth. Shares rose 1.5%.
Discount retailer TJX (TJX) said same-store sales rose 6%, ahead of expectations for 4.5% growth. Shares rose 1.4%.

If you've been challenged by the notion – or if you're in complete denial – that effective stories can and should be broken down into sequential parts, that each of these parts has a unique contextual mission to fulfill, and that each segment is separated by a critical milestone that must accomplish certain storytelling feats…
… if this is you, then get ready for some very good news.
Because the storytelling world isn't really quite as black and white as I've made it out to be.
If you're a screenwriter, you're still absolutely stuck with specific targets for the plot points in your stories. But if you're a novelist, you will be delighted to hear that what screenwriters must regard as a set of rules really function more like a set of principles where you're concerned.
These principles are like traffic. Consistently disregard them and chances are you won't get a professional chauffer's license. But exceeding a few speed limits or cheating a stop sign now and then, that doesn't mean you'll end up in jail. Or dead. Or become the cause of someone else being dead.
It just means you got away with it. Which, when it comes to writing fiction, may be perfectly fine. This doesn't negate the principle, it just serves your creative needs at the time.
Principles, like a moral code, still require a general sense of discipline and homage. At least if you want to coexist in the society in which they prosper.
Or with writing, at least if you want to publish your work.
The Case of the Wandering Plot Point
Yesterday I used a five hour airplane ride to read a highly regarded thriller by a writer who lives in a neighboring zip code. As usual, I found myself deconstructing the story as I went along, making sure the requisite plot points appear within their narrowly-defined range of locale, and that the four sequential parts did their generically-prescribed contextual job.
That's the downside of studying story structure. Every novel you read and every movie you see becomes a bit of a clinic. Last time I just sat back and got lost in a story was when the Swiss Family Robinson was turning a confluence of vines into a foyer.
In my advocacy of story structure I encourage this deconstruction process as a means of understanding what the four parts of a story are intended to do, and how the milestones that separate them are the stuff of dramatic tension, pacing and character arc.
So there I am, sitting in 24A somewhere between Honolulu and Seattle, waiting for the first plot point to appear where it should. And waiting. And waiting. Past the prescribed 20th percentile. Past the 25th. Getting nervous as we zip through the 3oth.
The first plot point in this New York Times bestseller finally showed up on page 118 in a 356 page novel. Do the math, that's not supposed to happen.
Got me to thinking. I need to take my musings on story structure a step further.
A plot point may not be what you think it is.
The definition of a first plot point is a change in the story that defines the hero's quest and need going forward, and does so in the face of an antagonistic force that the reader suddenly understands to an extent that empathy and emotion are evoked, while creating obstacles to the hero's quest, and thus creating stakes that depend on the hero's ability to overcome those obstacles.
A mouthful. Chew it carefully, because it will nourish your story. Or kill it if you don't swallow it all.
Because that is always what a first plot point does.
If you look closely, though, the essence of that definition is the grasping of what the plot point means, rather than what it is.
Read that again. It's subtle, and it's critical.
A husband suddenly dying of an accident may seem like a plot point, if nothing else than by the sheer magnitude of how it changes the widow's life. But, if the story is about how she is supposed to deal with the fact that the husband has left all the insurance money to a heretofore unknown mistress, it is the moment when that fact is revealed that becomes the plot point, rather than the death itself.
As you look for plot points in the work of others, don't be seduced by magnitude. Look for the narrative moment at which the story clarifies, when the hero's quest truly begins an informed forward motion.
When the story switches from set-up mode into reaction mode.
It's the stakes that the first plot point creates that counts, not the size of the explosion.
A plot point may not appear precisely where it should.
I've said (as has Syd Field) that the first plot point should occur at a point between the 20th and 25th percentile in the story.
If you've perceived that to be a rule, that's good, because it is the optimal range. But you, the novelist, have the latitude to cheat that on either side, depending on the nature of the preceding set-up sequence (the very definition of Part 1).
If you delay the first plot point past the 25th percentile, then you'll need several twists and a deepening of the stakes prior to that point. Without them the set-up will take too long and you'll lose the reader.
If you're Big Bang plot point comes much earlier, then make sure you put another twist – one that deepens the stakes of the story – at about the 25th percentile, making sure that it changes the course of the hero's quest from what it was.
A plot point may be a sequence of scenes, versus a specific moment.
Sometimes the first plot point isn't a sudden moment at all. It can also be the consequence of a sequence of scenes or story points, all condensed around the prescribed vicinity where the plot point should occur.
Sometimes when it's tough to nail down a plot point in a story we are reading or a movie we are seeing, it's because several things happen that could be the plot point. For instance, using the example from above…
The husband is seen cheating. The husband dies. The wife is told by the lawyer that the insurance policy doesn't bear her name. The mistress shows up at her house demanding the jewelry – including her wedding ring – that the dead husband has just left her in his will.
Obviously, the widow has a new quest and need, and she's in reaction mode. A plot point has definitely occurred.
But where? Which moment defines the point plot?
A plot point may occur as a sequence of scenes that occur from the 20th to 28th percentile of the story. Each scene changes the nature of the widow's quest, spinning the story in a new direction, but only after they're all on the table do we fully understand what it means.
So which scene is the plot point itself?
Answer: it doesn't matter. At least not for the reader when the sequence is regarded as a whole. The writer knows – my money is on the lawyer's revelation that the mistress is the beneficiary – but post-execution it is the effect of the scenes, rather than the mission, that counts.
Relax. Tell your story.
But do so from within the context of understanding how and where story structure comes into play. This will keep you safe and keep the story moving forward.
Just like a musician can't go off riffing a solo until they understand the underlying melody. Just like an athlete can't successfully freelance a play until they understand where the rest of the team will be on the field.
Don't sweat the percentages. Sweat the stakes, the dramatic tension and reader empathy. If you're simply in the neighborhood, story architecture will protect you.
But if you disregard its principles, be aware that this is a tough neighborhood, indeed. Once lost, you may never be found.
At least, your story won't be found in a bookstore, that is.

You may remember that the Mister and I attended C2E2 (a comic book convention) a couple months ago. Later, I was super sad to find out I had missed some YA fiction panels earlier in the day. Luckily, Chicago BookCon was this past weekend, so I finally got my fix of all the bookish goodness I could ever want. ^.^
This was my first book convention, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I decided to attend just one panel and spend the rest of the day browsing the show floor. Picking a panel was a tough choice, but I decided to go to the first one of the day: a panel on good vs. evil in YA lit run by Lauren Oliver, Sabaa Tahir, Melissa de la Cruz, and Veronica Roth.
That's right. We're talkin' world-famous-author-of-Divergent Veronica Roth. I was so excited/nervous that I had to run back into the house two different times before we left because I forgot my phone and jacket!
Like the troopers we are, the Mister and I arrived 45 minutes early for our panel (if there are big-name speakers on the panel, you pretty much have to come early if you want good seats).
I may have gotten just a little squeally when the panel host came on stage…and turned out be MARGOT FROM EPIC READS! If you're not familiar with her, she hosts Tea Time and makes regular appearances on Book Nerd Problems—two of Epic Reads' Youtube shows.
….and I may have gotten just a little bit more squeally when Veronica Roth came on stage. I WAS 5 ROWS FROM THE FRONT, YOU GUYS. IT WAS AWESOME. * cue fangirl faint *
The panel itself started with Roth explaining how you can use Dungeons & Dragons alignments to describe heroes and villains in books (which the Mister appreciated, as an avid D&Der). Then all the authors went on to discuss how the evil in their books is grounded in reality—sometimes inspired by real-world dystopias and dictators.
I think my favorite quote from the panel came from Lauren Oliver, who said, "Dystopia is created by a desire for a utopia, a lot of times rising from the shambles of civil war." She also pointed out that the reason why literary villains are often more memorable than heroes (and sometimes even more interesting) is because authors spend more time getting to know their villains in order to better justify them.
All the authors recommended great questions for potential writers to ask themselves when writing villains: Do I believe in evil? Do I believe in such a thing as absolute evil? Are evil people still human?
I took a lot of notes for the YA fiction novel I plan to write this year for NaNoWriMo!
Attending only one panel left us plenty of time to explore the show floor. There were TONS of publisher booths and vendors selling cool book-themed knickknacks like Slytherin stationary and book quote mugs. One of my favorite bookstores, Anderson's Bookshop, had a booth were I picked up some Alice in Wonderland tea!
If I had one piece of criticism for BookCon, it would be that the show floor wasn't organized very well. Instead of having unbroken rows of booths, BookCon had partial rows broken up with giant "block areas" devoted to the big-name publishers. This made browsing the booths in a methodical way difficult, partially because it prevented people from developing natural "lanes" of walking traffic. Instead, everyone was milling around, and the Mister and I spent a lot of time dodging people walking in the opposite direction. I think it would have been better if big publishers had been arranged around the walls or on the outside edges of the show floor.
After trekking through the show floor, it was time for a little R&R.
When I ordered our BookCon tickets a couple months ago, there was a drawing for free VIP passes to the Hatchette Publishing private lounge, and we won one! We stopped by after our preliminary run through the show floor, and I gotta say it was pretty awesome to have an oasis of calm in the middle of the all activity. There were snacks, a coloring corner, a phone charging station, free posters and totes, and tables decorated with book displays that were free to take home.
We relaxed, refueled, and colored some pictures of Captain America. Then we went out to do our final run of the show floor, where I picked up The Beautfiul Thing That Awaits Us All by Laird Barron—a Bram Stoker Award winner—from the Skyhorse Publishing booth!
Despite the difficulties with navigating the show floor, BookCon was still a ton of fun. I plan on going next year for sure, and I'll probably attend an extra panel. The folks selling Slytherin stationary promised they'd have Ravenclaw stationary next year, so guess who's gonna be signing all her letters "From the Desk of Rowena Ravenclaw" next May?

When a Jonesboro Car Accident is Not Your Fault
Jason R. Schultz
Comments (0)
Having to deal with car insurance companies -- your insurance company and the other party's company -- after a Jonesboro car accident can be a hassle. However, it is necessary, especially if you suffered injuries and car damage, and the accident was not your fault. Those liable for an accident often are afraid to report a car accident, so it may be up to you to make sure that not only your car insurance company, but also the insurance company of the other driver, is aware of what happened.
It is important to get the other driver's personal information and insurance information immediately following the car accident. You should also take photos of the accident in case the other driver claims he or she was not at fault. The photos can be used as evidence to maintain your innocence.
You should inform your insurance company after the car accident as well. The company can follow up with the other driver's insurance company to ensure that you get paid for your damages. You should follow up with the other driver's insurance company several days after the car accident to see if the claim has been called in. If not, then ask the claims adjuster to set up a claim and advise you of where to take your car for repairs.

Bridlington provided the finishing line for a coast-to-coast charity bike ride which raised nearly £7,000.
Brothers Kevin and Steve Brailey's 170-mile (273.5km), three-day Morecambe-to-Bridlington trek came after doctors found out that their father had Alzheimer's disease.
The pair were joined by Julie Brailey, Steve's wife, and Jill Boyington, a friend. The illness was also detected in Julie's mother in 2010.
The picturesque ride comprised beauty spots such as the Pennines and Lake District, the former proving particularly challenging. Steve said these hills proved more gruelling than even the ones they encountered in Sheffield.
The quartet travelled eastwards, factoring in the wind which normally blows that way. But their calculations backfired and they had to cycle against the elements.
They prepared for their biking marathon by taking on the sharp hills of the Derbyshire Peak district villages of Baslow and Hathersage.
The money – with power to add – will go to Alzheimer's Society's coffers.

The Bose VideoWave knocks my socks off!
I was recently privileged to have a demonstration of the Bose Video Wave System and was completely bowled over. We have been struggling for years and spent a lot more money than I care to even think about to get a decent sound system in our living room. Bose has really cracked it – it's simple, it's elegant and the sound is awesome.
Bose is a very interesting company – they really stick to their guns on pursuing innovation that makes a real difference to customers in a way that clearly sets them apart. Of course, I may be biased as I think I have something from Bose in about every room in the house.
Now the problem – what do I do with all that stuff I've been accumulating to try to accomplish the same thing for years?

As part of the annual amendments to the laws and regulations relevant for the financial markets, the Dutch legislator is expected to amend the Decree on Conduct of Business Supervision of Financial Undertakings under the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Besluit gedragstoezicht financiële ondernemingen, the "Decree"). The Dutch legislator is expected to propose amendments to the Decree to include other financial products within the scope of the inducement ban and to regulate crowdfunding.
In December 2014, the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets ("AFM") published its findings with respect to research performed on crowdfunding. The AFM concluded that changes to laws and regulations are appropriate, since the current legislation contains several bottlenecks with respect thereto. Therefore, the Dutch legislator proposes two amendments: (i) an exception to the ban on inducements when a crowdfunding platform qualifies as an investment firm; and (ii) stricter requirements will apply when a crowdfunding platform requests dispensation to act as an intermediary with respect to attracting, receiving or holding repayable funds from the public.
Further, the Dutch legislator wishes to extend the scope of the inducement ban. It is proposed that the ban will include (i) advising and/or acting as an intermediary with respect to premium pension claims (premiepensioenvorderingen), and (ii) receiving inducements from managers of alternative investment funds or managers of UCITS with respect to offering investment-linked insurance (beleggingsverzekeringen).

A distance learning program designed for Asian working journalists who seek to develop and leverage the Asian perspective in their work, intensify their commitment to journalism's ideals, and be at the cutting-edge in a global, technologically sophisticated environment. A total of 12 courses are taught by an international faculty using blended (i.e. both online and face-to-face learning) methods.
The program accepts about 20 students from various Asian countries each year. As of 2015, more than 200 journalists from Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam have enrolled.
The program is administered by ACFJ under the Ateneo Department of Communication.
Twelve courses make up the M.A. Journalism program, with a load of four courses per semester, to be completed in two school years.
6 Core courses
provide a strong foundation and the breadth of context and background needed for today's dynamic media environment
Media Law and Ethics
Students learn about evolving ethical and legal issues in journalism, focusing on the philosophical foundations of decision-making and how media law and regulatory policies impact the practice of the journalistic profession.
Advanced Reporting and Writing I & II
This course equips students with the skills and techniques of reporting and writing—from story planning and development to in-depth reporting. Besides being trained in critical thinking, students learn a whole range of research strategies and techniques.
The course also provides foundational training for the second Advanced Reporting and Writing class, which in turn, prepares students to thrive in a convergent media environment as they learn about new media technology and storytelling methods for multimedia platforms.
Asia, History, and the Media
Students examine press systems in Asia, with an emphasis on how news media forms and practices interact with historical, social, and political forces. Students are expected to understand the evolution of news media in reference to a historical trajectory that is simultaneously global and national. This is a course that gives the new media professional a solid sense of context against the sometimes chaotic environment of the 24-hour news cycle.
Theories of Journalism
This class introduces the students to key concepts in journalism theory and media theory, with the goal of providing them with a sound theoretical framework for journalistic practice. This is a course that will allow them to reflect on their social and political roles as journalists.
Newsroom Management
Students learn a variety of techniques now used in managing news organizations. They are encouraged to explore news media structures and make sense of organizational missions and social responsibilities. In the process, they are exposed to the study of real-life personnel management concerns as well as professional and ethical issues.
5 Elective courses
provide intensive training on a wide range of specialized fields.
Among these are:
- Journalistic Writing for Multimedia
- Editorial and Opinion Writing
- International Reporting
- Investigative Journalism
- Media and Politics
- Computer-assisted Reporting / Data Journalism
- Reporting about Conflict and Peace
1 Comprehensive examination
1 Master's Project
This culminating final project can either be an in-depth report or a study of journalism institutions, practices, and processes. It represents a synthesis of the journalist's accumulated knowledge, skills, and values. It also provides this journalist the opportunity to contribute insights and new knowledge to Asian journalism as well as to reflect on issues of regional importance.
Courses are taught using Internet-based distance education methods, a truly convenient platform for working journalists. With online classes, they can pursue their studies at their own time and in any place of their choice—home, office, or café—without major disruptions to their careers and personal lives.
Core courses are taught using a fusion of online and on-campus methods. Electives and Master's Projects take place entirely online, while the cognate courses are taken on-campus.

PLANS to revamp traffic flow in the city centre by creating a one-way system along George Street have been approved.
The famous shopping thoroughfare will become one-way for motorists with a lane dedicated to vehicles travelling west to east and a two-way cycle lane on the other side of the street from late July.
Work to change signs and the road layout will get under way on June 16.
Traders and cycle campaigners have largely welcomed the experiment which will run throughout the summer festival for one year.
Transport chiefs will monitor the effect of the trial on the street and surrounding areas. Under the bold vision parking will be retained up the middle of the road.
Meanwhile pavements on the northern side of the street will be widened from North Charlotte Street to Frederick Street, while south side pavements will get the same treatment from Frederick Street to St Andrew Square, meaning large venues like The Dome and the Assembly Rooms will be able to offer outdoor seating.
It is understood that last year's festival, when whole parts of George Street were closed across August, had convinced city chiefs that greater pedestrianisation of the area could work. Traders and cycling groups have given the plan the thumbs-up.
Joshua Miller, chair of the George Street Traders Association, said: "It was a success last summer so we welcome it back and also welcome the fact that it is a trial which will be carefully monitored across the year throughout all seasons. The proof will be in the pudding."
He added: "Now that the tram works have finished people are returning to the city centre, the out-of-town shopping centres can't match the city centre as a destination. That is hopefully what this trial will do: make George Street and the city centre a destination and an experience people enjoy shopping and visiting."
The council wants to lock-in the arrangements for at least five years if the trial is a success so businesses have the confidence to spend on outdoor tables, seating and other facilities.
Ian Maxwell, of city cycling charity Spokes, said they welcomed the decision to experiment with a cycleway.
He said they "will watch closely to see how it works".
City transport convenor Councillor Lesley Hinds, said given the scheme's "experimental nature", it will be monitored and reviewed throughout the year "to reflect feedback and lessons learned".
She said: "By increasing pavement space and creating a two-way cycle route we are enhancing their use for pedestrians and cyclists, improving the surrounding environment and creating a relaxed atmosphere for the public. As a major UK capital it is important we show off our city centre, and these plans will not only open up one of our key thoroughfares for visitors, shoppers and the community to enjoy, but will showcase the thriving local businesses on offer."
The Evening News told earlier this month how trader plans will see the street kitted out with swanky decking and outdoor seating.

Cher battles laryngitis to perform in New York, announces tour
Pop superstar Cher battled through a bout of laryngitis to perform for thousands of fans in New York City on Monday (23Sep13). The Believe hitmaker raised fears she wouldn't be able to sing when she took to Twitter.com on Sunday (22Sep13) to let fans know about her voice problems and many feared she would cancel her performance on a U.S. breakfast show.
She wrote, "MY VOICE…WELL..ITS (sic) LIKE JUMPING OUT Of A PLANE, IN A PARACHUTE YOUR MOM PACKED!!! YOU JUST PRAY IT OPENS".
However, Cher arrived in style, accompanied by a New York City police motorcade, and belted out some of her hit songs, including Believe, This Is a Woman's World and I Hope You Find It on U.S. breakfast show Today on Monday.
The singer also announced she would be going on tour for the first time since 2002 and admitted she doesn't actually like the mechanics of being on the road.
She said, "The road is horrible, but the concerts are great.
"I understand why guys in bands tear up hotel rooms and throw TVs out the windows, because it's a very lonely place. The only time you have fun is at the concerts."
The Dressed To Kill tour will kick off next March (14) in Phoenix, Arizona.

Like many weddings you'll find a variety of photo styles here. For one style, I attempt to shoot spontaneously, capturing a photojournalistic feel. Like the bride's head resting on the groom's chest, or the bride and her father sharing a moment shortly before the ceremony.
For another portion of the wedding day, portraits are the norm. Like the bride on the walk bridge, or the entire bridal party.
Then there's everything in between. Scenes that are guided along, yet mostly casual, arriving on the door step of photojournalism.
Congrats to Kelly + Trey!

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which means your body doesn't store it. Unlike most other mammals, humans do not have the ability to make vitamin C, which means you need to consume it via your diet.
Vitamin C has numerous functions in the human body, including acting as an essential cofactor in enzymatic reactions. In this way, it plays a role in your body's production of collagen, carnitine (which helps your body turn fat into energy), and catecholamines (hormones made by your adrenal glands), for starters.
Vitamin C is also used by your body for wound healing, repairing, and maintaining the health of your bones and teeth, and plays a role in helping your body absorb iron.1 However, it's vitamin C's role as an antioxidant that it is most well known for.
As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C is known to block some of the damage caused by DNA-damaging free radicals. Over time, free radical damage may accelerate aging and contribute to the development of heart disease and other health conditions. It's through this antioxidant effect that it's thought vitamin C may play a role in protecting heart health – perhaps as much as exercise.
Vitamin C May Be as Helpful to Your Heart as Walking
A daily dose of vitamin C may have a similar effect as walking on a protein called endothelin-1, which promotes the constriction of small blood vessels. The study, which was presented at the American Physiological Society's 14th International Conference on Endothelin, involved 35 sedentary, overweight, or obese adults.2
Those who took a daily time-release dose of vitamin C (500 milligrams, mg) reduced endothelin-1-mediated vessel constriction as much as those who walked daily. Endothelin-1 activity is known to be higher in those who are overweight and obese. This makes small blood vessels

A wee bit of a town, with a strong history, Galle, is for people who like to see the 'ordinary' in a country and yet find it extra-ordinary. You will find here an overwhelming leftover of the Portugese and Dutch occupation. And although we were staying in Unawatuna (Read: Review of Coco Bay Resorts in Unawatuna), we drove down to the Galle town three times…
First, to see the Galle Fort. A remnant of the strong Dutch legacy, explore the fort both in the morning when there aren't many people in its streets, and do go back during sunset to see how the sun lights up the town in its orange glow as it makes its way into the distant horizon of the Indian Ocean. I have written extensively in my previous post. Read it here – Tour of the Galle Fort.
Second, to see how they catch fishes! Well, yes! We did that. Since we had gone to loiter the streets of the fort early in the morning, we found many fishermen flocking the sea-shores, off-loading the fresh catch from their jetties, putting them up for a bargain in the nearby fish stalls. We stopped by a section of the shore where about 25-30 men were pulling long ropes of the net. In what took them more than 45 minutes, we stood watching how they worked in tandem to bring their huge net to the shore, empty the contents, fling back to the waters those fishes that they didn't need, sort the fishes and put them up for sale. As I said, this is for you if you find the 'ordinary' just as exciting as the 'extraordinary' 🙂
We also went whale-watching in Mirissa. Well, our daughter had made it almost the highlight of our Sri Lanka trip. Exactly a year ago, she claimed, she had seen the king animals of the land when we were in Maasai Mara, Kenya, and now was the turn of the king animals of water. I have covered this too in a previous post –read it here – Whale-Watching in Galle.
If in a quandary whether to include Galle in your Sri Lanka itinerary or not, ask yourself this – do you like to see and understand every aspect of a country, both its cultural-religious richness and its natural beauty? If yes, go to Galle.

We often race from Christ's death on Good Friday directly to the empty tomb on Easter Sunday. But in between these two events was another key moment — the burial of Jesus Christ.
The burial of Jesus is so central to our Christian hope that Paul includes it in his summary of the gospel: "For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Why is the burial of Jesus so significant? And what relevance does it have for us today? This morning, we looked at Mark 15 and its parallel in John 19 to answer these questions.
