"We're happy with how it has gone. We wanted to do a couple of things this spring. We wanted to evaluate talent and get a good handle on who the guys are. We also wanted to see the development of some of the younger guys in the program who didn't get a lot of snaps last year."

Mr Harry Anderson
Mr Harry Anderson was born in Scarborough, Yorkshire on 20 October 1864, and went to the United States in his youth.
In 1912, Mr Anderson was returning to his home in New York City after a business and pleasure trip to England. He was a Wall Street stockbroker and was married to the former Flora Makley, daughter of John F. and Anna E. Makley. They lived on Manhattan's Upper West Side. The Andersons had no children. Mrs Anderson did not make the trip with her husband and had remained in New York.
Mr Anderson boarded the Titanic in Southampton (ticket number 19952, �26 11s) and occupied cabin E-12 . He left the Titanic in Lifeboat 3 which was one of the first boats to leave.
Back in New York, Mr Anderson was commodore of the yacht division of the New York Athletic Club. In his later years, he was a member of the Larchmont Yacht Club, the same club in which fellow survivor, Frederick Hoyt , was also a member.
Harry Anderson's wife Florence Makley Anderson died on 7 December 1937. At the time of his own death in New York on 23 November 1951, at the age of 87, he left no surviving relatives in the United States.
Harry Anderson and his wife were both buried at Woodlawn Cemetery in New York City.

State's craft beer brewers bubbly over proposed bill
- Steve Habel and Allison Wollam
Saint Arnold's Wagner is planning to make numerous trips to Austin to lobby for HB 602.
He says the bill's passing would greatly help the marketing of Saint Arnold's beers.
"If someone was able to take the tour and leave with a six-pack of their favorite beer, they would be much more likely to remember which beer they liked the best and would probably buy it the next time they were at the grocery store picking up eggs and bread," he said. "It enhances the whole experience of visiting a brewery."

A man who allegedly pointed a gun at Pasadena police at the end of a short foot chase was shot by an officer today and hospitalized in unknown condition.
According to police, two officers on routine patrol approached a 23-year- old man around 10 a.m. near Hammond Street and Morton Avenue, but the man fled.
The officers pursued the man, who ran into the Kings Villages housing complex and allegedly produced a handgun "in a threatening manner," police said.
One officer opened fire, hitting the man. A gun was recovered at the scene, police said.
No officers were injured during the chase and shooting, police said.

NYT: White House Organizing Prayer Vigil Outside Supreme Court During Hearing on Obamacare
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
Well, Congress passed the health care law, and contrary to Nancy Pelosi's assurances, Kathleen Sebelius still doesn't know what's in it. That, however, isn't delaying Obamacare's expected arrival at the Supreme Court, where Team Obama will pull out all the stops.
From the New York Times:
The White House has begun an aggressive campaign to use approaching Supreme Court arguments on the new health care law as a moment to build support for the measure seen as President Obama's signature legislative achievement, hoping to shape public opinion on an issue at the center of the battle for the White House and Congress.
On Wednesday, White House officials summoned dozens of leaders of nonprofit organizations that strongly back the health law to help them coordinate plans for a prayer vigil, press conferences and other events outside the court when justices hear arguments for three days beginning March 26.
It's possible that the health care bill is the reason Democrats lost the House in 2010, and those up for re-election will be very wary of the subject this year. Also, Obamacare is hurting the president in swing states, and 53% favor repeal vs. 42% who oppose. Given those factors, at this point we can't be positive if the gathered throng at the vigil will be instructed to pray for the Supreme Court to uphold the law, or strike it down.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Like many consumers, Jennifer Smelyanets, claims she has changed her ways since the recession.
The 25-year-old marketing professional used to blow her biweekly paycheck, even buying a new Acura TSX, while saving nothing aside from a minimal contribution to her 401(k).
"I was optimistic, thinking, I'm only 23, I can spend now and save later," she says the San Jose, Calif.-native.
But a 10% paycut in 2009 came with a harsh reality: She was living a life she could barely afford. Now Smelyanets says she's more careful when it comes to her income.
Christine Nelson says she's firmly in the saving camp, too, after having her pay cut and her hours reduced to 30 a week last year. She and her husband, who live in central Minnesota, are now resolved to live off one salary even though her income has since been fully restored.
And Kristin Heaton-Peabody also says she's committed to a more frugal lifestyle. During the recession, "we really had to cut costs in all areas," says the co-owner of a day spa in Dallas. And even now that her business has improved, "things haven't really changed."
In fact, 52% of consumers say the recession has "forever changed" the way they spend and save, according to a recent survey by Citigroup. But that's down from 63% when the same survey was conducted a year ago.
"I look at all this talk as New Year's resolutions, nice sentiments but not likely to be implemented with any degree of consistency," said Robert Brusca, chief economist at Fact and Opinion Economics. "Once we get into a better a recovery period then we will know whether this new consumer pledge really means anything or not."
And recent reports indicate otherwise. Personal income and spending both rose in December even as personal savings declined, according to the latest data from the Commerce Department.
The amount of revolving consumer debt, mostly on credit cards, also rose in December after falling for 26 straight months, according to the Federal Reserve.
The stores are feeling the rush: After a strong holiday season, retail sales rose again in the January, marking the seventh month of gains.
"The fear of getting fired or not being able to find another job is receding, at the same time you are noticing that you have holes in your socks and your car is old and you are no where near your credit card limit and your savings has grown," said Lakshman Achuthan, managing director of the Economic Cycle Research Institute.
He predicts that "strong across-the-board consumer spending is going to continue well into 2011" and sales will improve further going forward.
Heaton-Peabody admits that has already booked two vacations this year, after two years of staycations: "One for the whole family to Maui and then my husband and I are taking a trip to Spain." She says she bought the Hawaii trip at an auction calling it "a tremendous deal."
And although Smelyanets says she is more mindful about her savings and has even set up an IRA, she also admits to a recent splurge: a $5,000 deposit on an apartment in Manhattan.
Nelson is eyeing a new couch for the living room.
Kelley Long, a Chicago-based financial coach and CPA, sees this all the time. "People are willing to cut back when they need to, but it is more like they are postponing spending than they are changing it," she says. "As soon as there's a good economic report, they are on the next cruise."

I've been a fan of Baggu's painted pouches, and a couple of weeks ago, I decided to paint a handful of pouches for M&S's Feliz table. We've been planning doing painting workshop at the store , but it's been a little too busy to set a date. So this was a nice opportunity to experiment and practice. I copied some of my sketchbook patterns onto the blue pouch, and I'm hoping to paint a few more pouches for the holidays. It's relatively easy to free hand paint, fun, and the possibilities are endless. This was the brand I used, and a little goes a long way.

Pausing for a bit and trying to slow things down.

My summer break is sadly coming to an end very soon. This month, I've been going to my new classroom a few times a week to get adjusted. On off days, I'm at the store, seeing family, or trying to work on my own stuff. I haven't been able to start anything big since my plans for an "uneventful" summer changed, but I've started some small projects. Above are two drink recipes I illustrated for M&S 's blog. They are both super tasty!
to watch
I've been gathering websites and materials for the upcoming courses I'm teaching and BJ has been a huge help with finding art history related lectures and movies. Last night, we finished watching, Cave of Forgotten Dreams, a beautiful documentary about the Chauvet Cave in France. I can't recommend it enough! The glittering stalagmites, the handprints scattered through the caves, the expressive horse paintings, the 30,000+ years of history all adds to the overwhelming sense of awe. We've also watched the Caravaggio episode of Simon Schama's The Power of Art, which is presented in a more passionate and dramatic fashion than most art history videos – it works though. I'll post any other good finds we come across this summer.
BJ loves, loves going to the movies. I feel bad, because I only feel the urge once in awhile. When I get to the theater, I'm usually glad I went, but I generally prefer watching movies at home. But after watching these trailers, I'm looking forward to catching Museum Hours and The Spectacular Now on the big screeb. They look promising, right?
June has flown by and I'm already halfway through my summer break. A lot has happened: I finished up the school year and completed my 5th year of teaching; we went to New York with my sisters for work/play, we saw Eggleston at the Met, celebrated my 28th birthday with friends, rode the ferry over to Brooklyn, had a lovely lunch with the Dobbin Mews ladies, came back to Houston; and then… I got a new teaching job. As I was looking forward to a summer of "nothing," things changed quickly. But this change was good. I had a tearful goodbye (all on my end, of course, because I cry about everything) with my former school, and now I'm preparing materials for my new courses. My commute will cut out almost 1.5 hours of driving every day, and most importantly I think this position will enable me to havea much more balanced life. Here's to a new beginning!
Revisiting Before Sunrise
We watched Before Sunrise today as a refresher for Before Midnight. The first time I viewed this movie, it was on a VHS tape my sisters and I rented from the local Krogers. I love that you're able to grow with the characters, and now reflect on where you were at when the 1st and 2nd movie came out. Watching it again, they seem so young, and Ethan Hawke comes off as a cynic and Julie Delphy very passionate about everything. It works though and seems very appropriate for who they were in the first movie.
I loved reading about Robin Wood's thoughts on one of my favorite scenes – the listening booth scene. Found here:
"I have to confess, at this point, to a failure: even on first viewing I told myself that I would 'one day' analyze in detail the scene in the listening booth of the record store, in which nothing happens except that Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy either do or don't look at each other, their eyes never quite meeting. After a dozen viewings I abandoned the project. I suppose one might try an elaborate system of charts and timings, annotating 'direction of the gaze', when and how long each looks (or doesn't)… which would demonstrate nothing of the least importance. With no camera-movement, no editing, no movement within the frame except for the slight movements of the actors' heads, nothing on the soundtrack but a not-very-distinguished song that may vaguely suggest what is going on in the characters' minds and seems sometimes to motivate their 'looks' ("Though I'm not impossible to touch / I have never wanted you so much / Come here"), the shot seems to me a model of 'pure cinema' in ways Hitchcock never dreamed of (not merely 'photographs of people talking', but photographs of them not talking), precisely because it completely resists analysis, defies verbal description. All one can say is that it is the cinema's most perfect depiction, in just over one minute of 'real' time, at once concrete and intangible, of two people beginning to realize that they are falling in love."
Before Midnight on npr
Summer's here! Making time to recharge, create, and reflect. And hopefully things won't be so quiet around here.
cats and cats and cats
Recently, my friend Tyler asked me to draw some cats for him and afterwards, I scanned and messed with some of the drawings just for fun. BJ introduced me to some cat memes while I was looking up images. I'm severely allergic to cats and more of a dog person myself, but I'm now warming up to them :)
m&s papercuts
Paper cut window mobiles for the store from my time off during Spring Break with help from Thuy. Lots going on around here. We've been driving back and forth to see family during the past couple of weeks, and just said good bye to the last few still here. Be back soon with more updates!
My spring break is drawing to an end, and, like I do with most weekends, I'm left wishing I'd done more before it ended, and probably dwelling a little too much on it all. But it's been a pretty great week so far. I got to wake up late and it wasn't pitch dark, eat multiple lunches with BJ, organize the house, hang out with my siblings, enjoy the spring weather, tackle loads of laundry, and work on fall orders for the store. We've also been watching The Americans. I'll always be a Keri Russell fan (Felicity forever!), and although it was a little slow to start for me, I'm pretty hooked. The 80′s look good on her too.
While cleaning the house, I took some pictures of some of the things I've been collecting or using frequently. From the top: new comfy Anniel shoes from Leap and hat from Creatures of Comfort, Mujji restock from our last trip to NY, bits of fabric and packaging remnants from Julia and Shara + pretty business card I found in NY, and some of the art supplies I've using these days. Still obsessed with stamps!

Romanians, we are sorry! Hail EDEN!
Dear Poles.
Im from Croatia and I would like to draw attention to some important things. Last week occurred one bad thing for the entire Eden.
Serbia attacked Romania and managed to win several regions. But that's not the biggest problem in this. The biggest problem is that Romania has not received the expected support of allies.
And thay have every right to be angry with us all.
EDEN has always been an alliance whose members have helped each other. We hope that it will remain so in the future.
You are now the state with the largest population in eRepublik, and we hope that you will not think you can do everything yourself. I am sure you will not ...
But we must remind you that we all helped you many times. It must not be forgotten. I wish that we all take this opportunity to say Romanians that we have failed this time. And we must promise them that we will be better allies in future . Romanians are often fought for us all, and without their help in the past, today we would not be what we are. Because of that, in these moments we have to show our support and tell them that we are sorry. It's the least we can do.
EDEN must be re-united and we must not quarrel.
The future brings new battles in which we want to emerge as winners. We can only do it together.
FIRST!!! xD
and sorry poland :p
U got always my arms!
Hail EDEN!
Penix fail!
Do we have to remind how many times we helped you? Just cut the crap off, it's already boring.
Rumunjsk i Hrvatska zauvijek!

Only united we can stand our Phoenix enemies.
I wanna say i'm very disappointed. I don't know why eRomania didn't get help from EDEN which they should have expected... I'm ashamed of my epolish government's orders... While we had big lead in battles against eGermany the orders were still to attack there not to help eRomania! And still now after beating eGermany, after lost RWs, ePoland does nothing to help romanian allies! They wheter start fake RWs as a training battles than send troops to eRomania. Bunch of selfish, egoistic kids!
Hang on eRomania!

Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are.

I am a specialist in Newborn Photography in the Milton Keynes area, but also undertake family sessions, Children and Maternity sessions in my Home Studio, alternatively you may want a Lifestyle shoot in a local park.
Having custom images created is a luxury, so I want to create images that you and your Family will enjoy for many years. Only the best images from your session are selected and hand finished and presented to you on your own portfolio so you and your family can select the images you want.
Having a new baby is such an amazing time for parents, but it goes so quickly, so capturing the essence of your Newborn, from those tiny toes to the rosebud lips is amazing and something you always want to remember.
I am happy. I love what I am doing and the path I am headed down. I hope I can make some Memories for you.

Staring a Church from Scratch
Posted by thegonetwork on August 2, 2012
Staring a Church from Scratch
We are in discussion about helping some friends start their church, and so I am writing this post as a way of getting my thoughts together as a set of basic instructions. In my other posts, I covered a lot of perspectives and pitfalls which1 would be of interest to those who are in the middle of it, but in this post, I am going to cover things you would want to know from the "ground up." This is different from a church plant that you start with a group from another church. This is a church that you and a few friends start together.
You must have a leader. There must be a single person who is in charge of the church plant and calls the shots for it. Everyone else who is thinking about getting involved needs to agree to respect, support and listen to this person regarding the plant. Anyone not willing to do this, can't be a part of the plant. The leader must be considered a spiritual leader by everyone else on the team. The best way to set this in place is by having someone from the outside explain it.
The Leader must work hard. The leader must be willing to take ownership of the plant. It's like being a small business owner. Church planting is hard work. You can't do it unless you are really willing to put effort into it to make it go. Just like in a small business the "entrepreneur" has to be a motivated person willing to work. You can't "oursource" it to someone else. Your main job as a leader has nothing to do with what you tell others to do, it has everything to do with what you are doing yourself.
Warmth is essential. You need to give off warmth as a group. You need to make people feel genuinely loved and connected in order to come back. The second most important person in your group is the "connector." This is the person who everyone loves and who loves everyone. This role is often played by a woman who hosts the meeting, but it can be anyone, and to some extent you hope it is everyone. But you genuinely must all agree to be warm to those who come, to reach out and follow up. You need a gathering that you bring everyone to that they want to keep coming back to. It almost doesn't matter what you do, just that they want to keep coming back to it.
Worship is important. Some people come mostly for the worship. The better your worship is, the quicker you can grow. Live worship is much better. You need someone who can make it happen. People say the first person who gets paid should be the pastor, but I think these days, the first payment should be for the worship team if needed. People really expect high quality music.
Evangelism and Discipleship. This is your bread and butter. You need unbelievers and nominal believers to come to your group. That means you must have some strategy for connecting with them. There are lots of good ones, but you need one. You have to all have an outward focus and a plan on bringing together the people you are reaching out to in a safe home environment. .
Feed only the hungry. Everyone is going to move at their own pace. Some people will warm the couch in your group for a long time and not "get it" while others will absolutely suck down anything you say. Don't' get too "in your face" with the people who want to go slow, just spend your time on those who are hungry. Make sure they are well fed. Help them connect with other people. Building your church is about building these people. Sometimes someone who is going slow will catch fire, and when they do, spend time on them, but the key for slow moving people is to give them space.
Run off the recycles. If you have someone who comes to your group upset about another church or with all kinds of ideas about how you should be doing church, confront them politely and they will leave.

If we are talking here about a home-group based kind of planting from the "ground-up", I believe the first point is "the vision of the leader". Most likely the one that "possess" the vision is the one that will carry it on, and usually this is the person that leads. Assessment in this area is extremely important. There are four basic questions that we can start with:
a) What is the motive of the leader's heart?
b) What is the motive behind the vision?
c) What is the vision?
d) What is the commitment and what it represents?
The rest of the questions will trigger when the three basic questions can be answered. We have to be clear about that we cannot build the Kingdom of God with our good intentions and great enthusiasm, because these are not enough, requires more than that.If the visionary has all of the above clear, he/she will be able to transfer the vision successfully, the core-team comes about and together they can work on the details of the vision [mission, objectives, resources, means, etc.]
I wouldn't be concern about the other four bullet points. Let's get over the first three…first. Practice to work in agreement, be inclusive and not exclusive, learn to submit one to another and consider the other better than yourself, don't forget to include prayer to your worship, then move on with the planting.

I am now at a church that started 7 years ago but has recently purchased a great building. We moved there in Feb. The pastor has told me that he considered Feb. to really be a new church plant. We went with a group but it is rapidly dwindling. Numbers 1,2,4,5,6 and very much in place but #3 WARMTH is lacking like I have never seen in my 33 years of being a Christian! and There is also almost no connection between the members let alone with any newcomers. Its so hard to watch this. It is impossible to not have all kinds of ideas about how we can better do church!
This is another church that I have specifically been assigned to and they do have so powerful things that I was sent to learn and have imparted to me. I have imported some warmth with me which has been well received.
I get to take intercession more seriously.
August 4, 2012 at 11:15 AM
This current church is my 3rd church plant.
August 6, 2012 at 1:26 PM
Enjoying your comments Sue. It is so refreshing that you have been able to be part of a group of people that goes for it all the way. Totally agree with you, as worship, I do take intercession seriously.

THanks everyone for letting me chime into and benefit from this circle. I don't think in this situation its about personal agenda. I think it has been two people planting a church without any significant pastoral gifting. In fact I came to realize that it really couldn't be called a "church" (although brethren assemble there 3 times a week). There is no Body Life—that beautiful God stuff that happens as people care for each other body, mind and spirit. I have been tempted to sneak off to a local newer Vineyard on Sundays just to be surrounded by that 'Body life'. I prayed about it and the Lord showed me He has attached me to this strange church so I settled down and the following Sunday there was an announcement that we are merging with a church that is bursting at the seams. Nine babies have been born this year, 75 kids under high school aged and plenty of teens. We purchased a great and large building in Feb. We have the facility and they have the church!! The couple that pastor that church are going to take over as senior pastors.
They are very strong in pastoral and evangelical gifting and my current pastor and his wife will function and minister according to their giftings and passions (prophetic, apostolic). Amazing! Anyone remember the movie "Yours, Mine, and Ours"? I think this great influx will blow our awkward little culture out this windows. (including the 5 ft. poles they handed everyone that came in the door). It looks like more fun and fascinating things are headed my way.

If you can zero in on getting to a mutually satisfying point with everyone you photograph, you will have already won much of the battle, and I don't use the word "battle" lightly. Fortunately, a great deal of the experience of a portrait session can be seamless and flowing, and well, fun. But it can also be a significant amount of work. It may consist of a concentrated effort to connect with individuals in a rather brief amount of time, which pays off handsomely in terms of meaningful captures but is, nonetheless, a heck of a lot of effort. Going into battle is an apt analogy, because it is helpful to dress accordingly, arm yourself appropriately (you already know about gearing up at this point!), know who is doing what and when, and of course, be able to anticipate what might happen next.

Sudanese Rebels Release Crew of Captured Mi-8 Helicopter

- Russian Helicopter Shot Up Again in South Sudan
KIEV, August 28 (RIA Novosti) — Two Ukrainian nationals who were part of the crew on board a Russian-made helicopter seized by Sudanese rebels earlier this month have been released, a Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman said Wednesday.
Two Ukrainians and one Sudanese national were aboard the UN-contracted Mi-8 helicopter when it was seized by the Sudanese Liberation Movement on August 3 after making an emergency landing southwest of Nyala, the capital of the Republic of Sudan's South Darfur state.
"According to information from the Ukrainian Embassy in Egypt, the Foreign Ministry of Sudan confirmed that crew members of the Mi-8 helicopter, including two citizens of Ukraine… were released yesterday evening," the spokesman said.
He added that the newly-released Ukrainians are "well" and are currently in Nyala under the protection of Sudanese security forces.
Sudan's volatile Darfur region has seen a decade-long conflict involving the Sudan Liberation Movement, the Justice and Equality Movement, and other rebel groups that accuse Sudan's government in Khartoum of oppression and of favoring Arab communities over black Africans. This conflict has been running since 2003 despite efforts by the African Union and United Nations to bring all rebel groups to the negotiating table.
In May, the BBC reported that conflict in Darfur displaced 300,000 people in the first five months of 2013 alone.

Moneygall's own secret agents - village gears up for Obama's visit
Obama's ancestral prepares for U.S. president
Looks like it's not just the CIA taking care of business in Ireland this week. The children of Offaly are donning their special agent sunglasses as they protect US President Barack Obama's ancestral home in County Offaly, Ireland.
The kids from the tiny town are fascinated with the men in their dark suits and sunglasses and are immitating the secret service's role of protecting the President.
Wearing her white rimmed shades, four-year old Katie and her team of friends are standing guard outside the Kearney home in Moneygall.
Falmouth Kearney, the great-great-great great grandfather of US President Obama, emigrated from Moneygall to New York City at the age of 19 in 1850, eventually settling in Indiana.
The real-life US security agents and Irish foreign affairs officials have been busy arranging sufficient security throughout the past few days in view of the locals, so it's no wonder that the kids have noticed and are role-playing.
American flags and Irish tricolours were raised side by side on Main Street by children from Moneygall National School, watched by principal Eugene Ryan says The Independent website.
Speaking outside her pub at the flag-raising ceremony, 80-year-old Julia Hayes said she was "very proud" of her area.
"We never thought we'd see the likes of it here," she told the Independant.
Mr Ryan said the school is "chaos": "The children are doing lots of American history and work on the president. They've been doing research on the Obama family tree."

Mike Bartrum is not a Pro Bowl tight end but he sure can flick those wrists to get a nice spiral on the ball under his legs. His skills as a long snapper have earned him a trip to be the third member of the Eagles going to the Pro Bowl. Trotter was the only player voted in and Dawkins is a replacement.
Bartrum always seemed like a good guy and his sentiments on his trip to Hawaii seem to show it:
"I feel honored to be representing my team at the Pro Bowl," Bartrum
said in a statement released by the team. "It will be a very special
experience for me and my family. Honors like this don't come along very often, and I plan to make the most of it."

The Profiles Office of the United Church of Christ keeps a record of current UCC Ministerial Profiles and can circulate them to Conferences upon request. Current profiles will show proper authorization by an Association (or by a Conference acting as an Association) and will contain a comprehensive criminal background check, which is good for 18 months from date issued.
The Local Church Profile is now available with the resources of "A Pilgrimage Through Transitions and New Beginnings."
How to Start or or Re-open a Ministerial Profile:To generate or update a current Ministerial Profile, please allow yourself several months to draft the profile thoughtfully and to allow for the validation and approval processes. Start with a Criminal Background Check and a signed Statement of Consent. Proceed to enter your information in the online profile program, including 8 electronic references.
When (1) at least seven references are received, (2) you have closed the Profile online, and (3) the UCC Profiles Office has received your completed CBC and SOC, then a draft Profile is processed for your review. Upon approval by yourself and vetting by your Conference representative, a final Ministerial Profile can be circulated.
Create or edit a new Ministerial Profile here; to re-open a Ministerial Profile you have had in the past, please send an email to email@example.com.
Coming in 2014: the new Ministerial Profile Portal!In 2011, then-Parish Life & Leadership conducted a survey of the Search and Call process. From the conclusions and recommendations of the survey, a new Ministerial Profile Portal has been developed to mobilize ministers in search of varied opportunities, to standardize the profile validation process for Conferences and Associations, and to improve search capabilities among profiles.
In the Ministerial Profile Portal, ministers will have access to a personal account that increases their control over the profile-building process, and over the circulation of a validated UCC Ministerial Profile among Conferences. Additionally, a new "Snapshot" feature of the Ministerial Profile Portal provides an important "first impression" to showcase the ministers' specializations, gifts and talents. Snapshots can be searched by Search and Call staff on behalf of calling bodies.
The UCC Ministerial Profile is a tool that documents eligibility for call in or on behalf of the United Church of Christ. In its final and validated form, the UCC Ministerial Profile with background check not only presents a minister's experience and gifts for the discernment of a calling body, but also presents official verification of a minister's authorization, standing and fitness. Eligible profiles are downloadable by Search & Call Staff through the Snapshot.
To explore the Search and Call process as it will be facilitated by the Ministerial Profile Portal, click "Start Prezi" below and use the left/right arrows to move from scene to scene. Expand the Prezi using "full screen" in the bottom right-hand corner; to return to this page after viewing the Prezi, click "full screen" again or click "esc" on your keyboard.
What's next?Beginning in late 2013, a series of demonstrations and Q&A sessions will be available for Search and Call staff to view the Ministerial Profile Portal and learn more about its features and functionality. Then in the first quarter of 2014, the Ministerial Profile Portal will be launched and all new ministerial profiles will be entered online using the portal. Any existing profiles that have been completed by the end of 2013 will continue to be honored for 18 months; however, it will be to a minister's advantage to combine an existing profile with a new Snapshot as soon as possible.

Columbus politics, people and issues
The Columbus Dispatch - September 21, 2012 02:43 PM
City business leaders support raising property taxes to provide in-home meals, transportation and socialization programs for Franklin County senior citizens.
The Columbus Chamber of Commerce this week formally endorsed the 1.3 mill senior options property tax request on the fall ballot. In a news release, chamber leaders stated that there is a growing need to support the work of the Franklin County Office on Aging, which collects the levy.
"We felt it was important to endorse this issue, as it supports a segment of the population that has served us all and built the Columbus Region," Chamber President and CEO Michael Dalby said in a statement.
The levy would replace a 0.9 mill property tax that expires at the end of the year and would raise about $34.1 million annually for the organization. Replacing the levy will bump its cost to taxpayers by about $12 to almost $40 a year per $100,000 of home value.
The levy pays for home-delivered meals; transportation; personal and day care; and, for the first time this year, a program that brings homebound senior citizens together to eat and socialize. The program provided 550,000 home-delivered meals last year and carried seniors more than 1 million miles to appointments, according to information provided by the office.
The chamber's endorsement came with a plea that the office safeguard taxpayer dollars by looking for efficiencies. The chamber asked the agency's staff to prepare outcomes and community needs assessments, as well as perform a program review of the office and provide a mid-levy report to the county's levy review committee by 2015.
The endorsement came after conversations with chamber members and input from the organization's volunteer government affairs steering committee, the release states. The full text of the chamber's resolution can be read here.
The number of taxpayers who still reach for a pen to fill out a tax form continues to shrink.
New Internal Revenue Service numbers show that 91 percent of individual tax returns filed this year by taxpayers doing their own work or using a preparer were filed electronically. That's 122.5 million returns.

Comparing Letrozole Given Alone to Letrozole Given With Avastin in Post-Menopausal Women Breast Cancer
This purpose of this trial is to show that the combination of Avastin and hormone therapy should be more effective than hormone therapy alone for the treatment of breast cancer.
Preclinical and clinical data have demonstrated that up-regulation of tumor cell VEGF is an important mechanism to subvert estrogen dependence in hormone responsive breast cancer resulting in reduced therapy response or tumor resistance to hormonal therapy; thus, it is hypothesized that the combination of an anti-VEGF agent (Avastin, an anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody) and hormonal therapy should be more effective than hormonal therapy alone for the treatment of breast cancer.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Inflammatory Breast Neoplasms
Metastatic breast cancer characterized by EDEMA and ERYTHEMA of the affected breast due to LYMPHATIC METASTASIS and eventual obstruction of LYMPHATIC VESSELS by the cancer cells.
Carcinoma, Lobular
A infiltrating (invasive) breast cancer, relatively uncommon, accounting for only 5%-10% of breast tumors in most series. It is often an area of ill-defined thickening in the breast, in contrast to the dominant lump characteristic of ductal carcinoma. It is typically composed of small cells in a linear arrangement with a tendency to grow around ducts and lobules. There is likelihood of axillary nodal involvement with metastasis to meningeal and serosal surfaces. (DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, p1205)
Carbohydrate antigen elevated in patients with tumors of the breast, ovary, lung, and prostate as well as other disorders. The mucin is expressed normally by most glandular epithelia but shows particularly increased expression in the breast at lactation and in malignancy. It is thus an established serum marker for breast cancer.
Breast Neoplasms
Tumors or cancer of the human BREAST.
Brca1 Protein
The phosphoprotein encoded by the BRCA1 gene (GENE, BRCA1). In normal cells the BRCA1 protein is localized in the nucleus, whereas in the majority of breast cancer cell lines and in malignant pleural effusions from breast cancer patients, it is localized mainly in the cytoplasm.
