"Great location"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 11, 2013
Clean, comfortable rooms. Hard to adjust air conditioning. Was too warm. Wifi didn't work a lot of the time. Great location.
"Great Spot in the Gothic Quarter"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 6, 2013
The location of this hotel turned out to be perfect - next to a metro station and right in the middle of the fantastic Gothic quarter, as well as a short walk to the harbour. Staff were very friendly and attentive (a leaky sink was being fixed within 5 minutes of us notifying the front desk!). Would definitely stay here again.

That's my beautiful Mother, Theresa O'Shea from Ballymacelligott, County Kerry. I was out to see my parents in Queens for my Dad's birthday yesterday. It was a birthday that might not have happened, except that my Dad fought throat cancer and won. Excellent care and music got him through it.
Using a camcorder and some poor lighting choices, I made some YouTube videos last year for a channel we called Irish Music Therapy, putting down some of my Dad's memories and tunes during the period of his radiation treatments.
Now that he's healthy again, he's back planning gigs with Randal Bays and Dáithí Sproule for their band Fingal.
And we're continuing to mine his memories, and putting pictures and stories on his website.
It was such a lovely day of music, and lasagna! (My Mom makes the best lasagna ever.)

SACKETS HARBOR (AP) -- The Great Lakes Seaway Trail is promoting a series of walks along waterways in western Pennsylvania and upstate New York as the nation commemorates the bicentennial of the War of 1812.
A national organization - the American Volkssport Association - has given its approval to walks in nine Seaway Trail communities from Erie, Pa., to Ogdensburg in northern New York. Walking enthusiasts who complete 3.1-mile and 6.2-mile Seaway Trail walks can earn AVA credits and special pins.
Seaway Trail officials say they expect Volkssport groups from across the nation to visit the War of 1812 sites along Lakes Erie and Ontario, the Niagara River and the St. Lawrence River.
The Great Lakes Seaway Trail is a 518-mile National Scenic Byway in New York and Pennsylvania.

I honestly don't think the game would be finished without some core graphical elements.
Sure cosmetics like custom decals can wait. but major structural changes to mechs should be represented in my opinion.
I'm curious as to whether you had severe difficulty enjoying any of the past MechWarrior games, because they all had this same issue. MW4 had it mitigated to a degree because of the slot system it used, but still, if you dropped an SRM-2 in a Timberwolf's torso, the launcher didn't change in shape and size. You just had a 21-hole launcher that only shot two missiles.
I agree it's a bit silly not to see weapon changes, and it's definitely better for immersion to see your loadout changes reflected on the 'Mech, but I don't know that I'd call it a core graphic element that the game can't launch without.

When it comes to do-it-yourself automotive repair, one of the most misunderstood and daunting repairs is the brake system. Not only are there a lot of parts and components to contend with and a ton of mystery behind the mechanics of it, but brakes are hands-down the most essential safety feature on any vehicle—so you don't wanna mess it up. Which is why the questions we see more than any others are always about how to bleed your brakes.

Modifying your car's performance and look is easy with the huge selection of products under $100 at AutoAnything. Learn about some of the best ones in this article.

Trying to determine the best brake rotors poses quite a challenge, especially when comparing performance rotors. However, we've put together a brief comparison between the two most popular rotors: drilled and slotted. Check it out.

As one collapses the others will rise in an effort to shift money to the "safest" place. But, only temporarily. As capital dries up across the board all nations will go under. This is why your government (in the USA) has ordered thousands of NATO spec weapons, hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammo, mass fields filled with coffins, drones, etc., etc., etc. They know.

Like mixing in water before or after the lemonade or may mixing up a glass and then taking a small amount and mix in the cayenne before and drink it and then finish the glass?
Also when fixing the lemon juice does it matter if there is pulp in it or should we strain the pulp out?
Another question is with the salt water flush and with the shots of cayenne can you also lick a lemon before, after and during drinking them to help with getting it down?

Eyebrow threading is a booming industry in Texas. But state bureaucrats are making it impossible to continue practicing this ancient art. Ash Patel shouldn't need to close his business to take 1,500 hours of beauty school classes that don't even teach threading. Read more

The Best of the Best
Selection A
One more time we would like to call upon your help in regards to the Rapha-FOCUS team. Over the course of this past season we asked for your help in getting us photos of our boys as they traversed the continent racing some of the best Cyclocross races that the United States has to offer. We were blown away by the support that we received in this venture and I would like to personally Thank You for all your help. However, there is still one bit of business that needs to wrap up before we can finally say that the US Cross season is over (but is it really ever over?) Which, in your opinion was the best of the best? You know the drill, vote in the comments section. Click through to see the rest of the winners and remember to place your vote in the comments section.
It should be noted that the season is far from over for these two. Chris will turn his focus (and his new Boardman Bike) to the road and his campaign with the UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team. He will take to the road with the Tour of Langkawi at the end of the month.
Chris Jones Rider Diary on Velonews
Zach McDonald is still in Cross racing mode and will head back to Belgium in a few short weeks to compete with the best of the U23 categories in the World Championship Cyclocross race in Sankt Wendel, Germany. Stay tuned for updates here and on the Rapha-FOCUS website.
Zach McDonald Rider Diary on Cyclingnews
Here are the photos, including the one above, that were all the winners over the course of the season. Take a look through and make your selection below. Try to keep in mind not only your typical photography inclinations when perusing the photos below (composition, lighting, effects) but also your Cyclocross inclinations, whether they be mud and wet weather or strictly focused on the stylings that make 'Cros the unique sport that delights us all. The winning photographer will be announced at the end of next week at which point we will send them the Rapha Umbrella to keep their cameras dry next year as they capture their respective Cyclocross scenes.

Breast Milk is The Best Milk
Why breast milk is the best milk:
There are many reasons why breast milk is the best milk, including the following:- nutrients
Human survival depends more on brain power than on strong muscles, rapid growth (rapid maturity), or body size, so your milk is rich in the nutrients that best promote brain growth and nervous system development. Research has found that breastfed babies perform better on different kinds of intelligence tests as they grow older. They also develop better eye function. This is due mostly to certain types of fat (fatty acid chains) in human milk, which are not available in artificial formulas.
The sugar (carbohydrate) and protein in breast milk are also designed to be used easily and more completely by the human baby. Your milk is the perfect first food to help your baby achieve every aspect of ideal growth and development.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that all breastfed babies receive a supplement of 400 IU per day of vitamin D beginning in the first few days of life. Your baby's physician can recommend the proper type of vitamin D supplement for your baby. - anti-infective properties
Only human milk is alive with many different kinds of disease-fighting factors that help prevent mild to severe infections. Babies who are fully or almost-fully breastfed, or breast milk-fed babies, have significantly fewer gastrointestinal, respiratory, ear, and urinary infections. Antibodies in human milk directly protect against infection. Other anti-infective factors create an environment that is friendly to "good" bacteria, referred to as "normal flora," and unfriendly to "bad" bacteria, viruses, or parasites. Human milk also appears to have properties that help a baby's own immune system work best. If your baby does become ill when breastfeeding and receiving your milk, the infection is likely to be less severe. - easily digested
Since nature designed human milk for human babies, your milk is the most easily digested food your baby can receive. A nutritious, yet easily digested first food is important for a baby's immature digestive tract. Your baby uses less energy, yet breaks your milk down more completely into its basic ingredients, so the nutrients, anti-infective factors, and all the other ingredients in your milk are more available to fuel your baby's body functions and to promote your baby's growth and development. - bio-availability
Bio-availability is a fancy way of referring to how well the body can use the nutrients in a food. The high bio-availability of nutrients in human milk means your baby gets more benefits from the nutrients it contains - even for nutrients that appear in lower levels in breast milk when compared to artificial formulas (because your baby's body can absorb and use them most effectively). It also means your baby saves the energy that would be needed to eliminate any nutrients he/she had difficulty digesting or using. - suitability
Your milk is best suited to, and so it is more gentle on, your baby's body systems. The suitability of your milk plays a role in your milk's digestibility, and it allows your baby's body to function most efficiently while spending a lot less energy on body functions. Suitability is also thought to be one reason that breastfed babies are less likely to develop allergic-related skin conditions and asthma.

Someone took my 5-foot lighted Christmas wreath: They have no ordinary wreath. It was not made in China by cheap labor under intolerable conditions with inferior material.
The wreath was made with love by my sister's hands from a grape vine from her yard. It is supported by two tobacco sticks from the farm where I grew up. It hung for many years at my sister's house before she gave it to me. It hung for many years at my house, including the year my mother died and the year I survived breast cancer. So you see, it is a very special wreath. But not so special to you.
In the spirit of Christmas, I would give the thief money to purchase a wreath to start his own Christmas tradition. But this person liked my wreath best.
Please take good care of it. It is a very special wreath. By the way, my offer to buy a wreath still stands if you would only return mine.
I can be silent no longer. When I saw the salary of the city attorney, I just about fell off my chair - $158,770 annually.
This is more than a district court judge, more than a superior court judge, more than a state appeals court judge, more than a North Carolina Supreme Court justice earns, and those positions are paid by the entire state, not by local property taxes. It's probably more than any member of the City Council will ever see, and the average taxpayer can hardly conceive of such a salary, yet that is whose taxes pay this outrageous amount.
And don't forget the nice pension that would go with that - probably about $100,000-plus annually in today's dollars for life, and with full benefits, at retirement. Such pensions these days are pretty much limited to government employees, and employees of large unionized companies.
How generous we can be with other people's money, particularly taxpayers' money. Many competent lawyers could, and would, do this job for less.

"Dark Knight Rises" star Christian Bale hasn't forgotten about the dud of a date he once had with another Hollywood A-lister.
The actor told GQ Australia that he once took a now-engaged Drew Barrymore out on the town, but when it was over she went M.I.A.
"We went to see some bloody awful horror film, and that was the end of it," he recalled of the movie they caught as teens. "She never called again."
Bale didn't go into what wrong, but clearly the actress is not the one who got away. Bale, 38, has been married to wife Sibi Blazic since January 2000, a choice he's called one of the best he's ever made.
"It's everything," he said of Blazic's undying support of him at the 2011 Critic's Choice Awards. "I truly believe you can't celebrate something like this without having your partner with you. Making movies takes so much time, and it ain't just the time that you're filming, the character's going home from the first day of shooting."
As a result, his wife's "had to be married to so many different characters over our marriage, and some women might say, 'Hey that's great! Variety is the spice of life,'" Bale said. "I know that it truly would be impossible to do it without her, and she's such a good strong woman. I owe everything to her."
Barrymore, who is engaged to Will Kopelman, was recently spotted in New York City trying on wedding veils.

OK, AP has nosed into the Lanzas´ divorce papers. Now, how about Stinky´s real birth certificate, Social Security number, passports, and college admission records and grade transcripts?
AP relishes digging into someone´s private life, what a shock
Agree with #1. The press is a total failure at releasing information and facts on the Obamas. Everyone else is fair game.
Why and how is a court appointed mediator talking to the press about confidential mediation issues?
Let´s try to understand that the lad could have had aspergers, just as many of my fellow professors (and probably I) had. Then along came another problem which caused a psychotic break. And he was intelligent enough to concoct a plan to kill people.I suppose if I had a psychotic break (I think I had one in 1992 which caused me to vote for Bill Clinton) and someone or something was telling me to kill alot of fellow humans, it would oddly logical for me to go to an elementary school and go to the youngest chilluns´ classroom, to minimize any resistence.Finally, I must note that the lad did not scream Allah Akbar as he shot the chillun. But Major Hasan, the homegrown filthy islamofascist terrorist pig screamed Allah Akbar when he shot and killed 13 fellow soldiers, and wounded many more.And which set of killings caused the president to go on national tv, visit the site of the killings, set up a taskforce?You got it. I guess the psychotic lad should have screamed Allah Akbar, which would have immunized the president from having to deal with ´assault weapons´ thus leaving him time to deal with our fiscal mess.
Why don´t we leave the Lanzas alone?
Where is the father? He could clear up some of these questions.
Psst! Wait ´til you see the story "60 Minutes" will have this weekend on Nancy Lanza´s divorce lawyer´s auto mechanics´s paperboy!
"Lanzas´ divorce appears to have been amicable."Boy, that´s a relief. Thank you AP for staying on top of things. A non-amicable divorce might have resulted in some kind of trouble for the family.You can go home now, media. You´ve done far more than your share.
The endless speculation and the endless digging for dirt is disgusting.None of us have walked in this family´s shoes.Thank G-d.Can´t we please turn off the media hacks and pay our own blessings forward.

Canyon Creek - Sherway Gardens
Online Reservations
For a large chain they still manage to put together a an package of choice, surroundings, quality and service.
It's always difficult to decide what to order, but you cannot go wrong with anything beef - from sliders and hamburgers to prime rib, it is always excellent. Pork mains such as the ribs and pork chops are also great. The sides such as loaded baked potato or skinny fries are also very good. And with every meal you get unlimited oat bread with honey butter - it is to die for... Service is always good too. My only complaint is that it can be quite noisy.
Staff are most obliging and willing to assist when sharing
Food was great, Service was great , atmosphere was great
Food good, menu choices similar but portions smaller, and selections (sides) limited and costly
one dinner we ordered was steak and lobster meat. The lobster came in a very oily sauce and it was spread on the mashed potatoes. it made the potatoes very greasy and we didn't enjoy it.
I enjoyed my dinner at Canyon Creek better than the last couple times my husband and i visited. Our server was good and we enjoyed our meals.
We had an enjoyable Friday night dinner here. The service was very attentive, from the moment we walked in the front door, through food ordering and service to receiving the bill. Drank a lovely bottle of wine, suggested by the server. Food was okay. The lettuce wrap appetizer dish was fabulous! The bulk of the menu was meat-heavy. To be honest, we had some difficulty finding entrees that we a bit lighter. Lots of steak, ribs, burgers and and big sandwiches. Ambiance was dark, with heavy wood.
I had the grilled salmon salad which was the same meal I enjoyed at the Front Street location. Making a meal recommendation is difficult because the salad I had at Sherway was really covered in dressing which it wasn't at the Front Street location and that's MY preference. Someone else could have had dinner at Sherway and then had the same meal at the Front Street location and complained that their salad was too dry. But, the meal was fine, just different and the salmon was cooked perfectly at both locations. But the reason for my recommendation was how great Dan, our host/server was at the Sherway location. He made sure our evening was pleasant and made sure my husband's water glass was full. He made us feel like guests. Well done!
Pleasant atmosphere, with greenery around to distract you from the parking lot. The food was good dispute the fact that server delivered someone else's food to our table in error. Most important my friend had a lovely evening on the patio. Suggestion, when a person requests the patio and there is a problem you should reply via email to the online reservation not cause an issues for your guests on arrival. This is not the way to start a relaxing evening, wouldn't you agree.
Our party of 18 had a great time. Our servers Shaun and Oksana were great and attentive. Everybody enjoyed their meals. We chose Tuesday to have our gathering because of the $5 apps and $5 drinks but were a little disappointed that the selection was so limited. I would recommend increasing the choices or even have another tier of perhaps $7 apps and drinks. Also, I am a vegan and find it difficult to find things to eat beyond a salad or a veggie burger. A pasta primavera with all the seasonal veggies out now would be a perfect choice. But all the carnivores around me enjoyed their bloody steaks! On another note - I do think the menus are too large and heavy.
I love canyon creek. The office goes there alot and there is never a problem. I really like it. The food is consistent and you know what you are getting.
Had a great time having dinner here. Food was great as always and the staff is friendly and attentive. Would recommend this place for anyone really. The Canyon Creek Dip is amazing and steak that I ordered was perfectly cooked! Looking forward to going back again!
Great menu and good service, however, the restaurant is better for groups than couples.
I frequently take business associates to Canyon Creek Sherway for lunch. There is a good selection on the menu and the food is always consistent. The staff are always attentive but they know when to leave you alone when you are discussing business. I have also taken groups there in the evening and the staff was most accommodating.
Our family enjoyed a nice dinner last weekend largely due to the great service by our waitress and delcious meals. Our server was attentive but not intrusive, and super pleasant. Well done.
We find that the food here is consistently good and that the service is always friendly and helpful. Can't resist the bread with honey butter! Our only criticism would be that the décor lacks character. The Canyon Creek at Square One has a very definite character with its Frank Lloyd Wright style and its photos from out west.
I always love Canyon Creek no matter what because of the food- that honey butter is just the BEST! We had a good experience at this one (Sherway): our food was great and it was nice and quiet even though it was mostly families around us. The service was a tad less attentive than we would have liked, but it was definitely not bad. We also really loved the cheap sangria special! We got some of our food to go and my boyfriend was a little sad that the beef dip wasn't given to him to-go as well as he was purposely saving some of it so he could have it with the rest of his sandwich later. Overall though it was great.
We had an enjoyable, relaxing dining experience supported by a friendly server who was eager to please. The food was delicious, plentiful and provided to us in a timely fashion.
I will continue to return to Canyon Creek. It never disappoints!
Went for a friends birthday, it was great food and service!
We had a wonderful evening. Our waitress couldn't have been better, very friendly. She assisted with our menu and wine selections and we were very pleased with our order. Service was prompt and the food was really good.
Food was good and the service was excellent. Very nice young woman.
My first time at this restaurant. Food quality was beyond my expectations. The patio was really lovely and our server was polite and attentive.
I love Canyon Creek. I love all the food on the menu the service is great and I would go there again and again and again.
We were a group of eight who go out to dinner together once a month. It was one of the few times everyone enjoyed their meal.
We were celebrating my twin daughters graduation from university and college. The energy in the restaurant was great....seemed many tables were celebrating an occassion. The food was great. Service was very good.
Just wanted to let you know we had a great time on Saturday at the BBQ grill off competition finals on the outdoor patio at Canyon creek, Sherway. Chef Dorian King was an outstanding host and we left with numerous tips on how to grill the perfect steak. We will certainly be putting his advise to good use and would like to thank Canyon creek for the wonderfully entertaining afternoon.
We had 9 people in our party celebrating a birthday. The service was very good and we had bottles of wine for $25!
We had a Birthday late lunch for my son in Canyon Creek at Sherway Gardens. When I was booking the table on-line, I forgot to ask for the high chair for my granddaughter. It was arrange in a very fast way. We chose a table inside but we switched for outside. It took maybe 5 minutes for the "crew" to make a table for us there. The waiter was extremely friendly, giving us advice about food. That was very helpful. Food was delicious, and nicely served. Canyon Creek is definitely my restaurant for family gatherings. Thank you very much for great service. Maria
Dependable. Though my salmon was a bit dry and there was too much dressing on the salad.
Good appetizers for a great price (on Wednesday's)
Very very good food & service!! I made reservations there because the weekend prior Canyon Creek did a pop-up event at a condo complex in the area. Met the chef Dean & manager Christine & decided I had to go the restaurant for more. They served sliders...delish as well as the desserts yummy. The menu's been changed up...lots of great selection to choose from. We shared the lobster guacamole, new to the menu...sooo good!! We all had steaks done with different sauces, all good. The service was truly outstanding. Thank you for the Birthday Cheesecake...perfect!! Will definitely go back soon.
I have been enjoying eating both lunch and dinners at Canyon Creek for at least the past 16 years and I have always been completely satisfied with the service and the meals. We even enjoyed a New Years Eve dinner one year and have had several Christmas parties at Canyon Creek. Keep up the good work and the excellent menus.
My wife and I have been to Canyon Creek a number of times for various occasions. It ends up being a pricey evening, so we only go on special occasions. The food is excellent and the service is great. We have yet to have a bad experience. Can be a bit noisy and loses some of its intimate ambiance if there is a party or group gathered. Overall, we enjoy the food. Only negative I find is it always seems to be cold in the restaurant. I always feel like I need a sweater or jacket when I'm there.
Our server was on top of his job and very helpful...besides being very friendly..
Had their Thanksgiving preset menu. Good variety of food choices at a very good price. Food was great. Services was good. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
I made a visit to Canyon Creek Chophouse for dinner with my boyfriend for the first time on a suggestion from my friend. I've always noticed this location when I drive by but never had the chance to try the food - and am I glad I did! From the moment the hostess seated us until we left, the service was outstanding. Our server was helpful and kind. The food was delicious. We enjoyed the calamari as a starter, followed by the seseme sirloin salad and coffee crusted steak as our mains. My steak was the perfect medium rare I've had in a while - it was cooked to perfection! The steak salad was delicious as well. We could taste and feel that the cuts of the meat were superb. I recommend this place for a date night or family dining.
I tried an item from the new menu and it was delish. I look forward to trying it out the other new items
Dessert menu could be improved. We don't often order dessert but this time we chose to. Unfortunately this location was out of cheesecake and no fruit-type options. That left us few options...
Excellent service. Great menu selection for food and wine.
Lunch was tasty, but didn't much care for the piled presentation of the prime rib over mashed. The ceasar dressing wasn't quite creamy enough & a little too much anchovies for my liking, although I finished it. Enjoyed the red wine and give the cheesecake a 5 for its utter perfecton; it was nicely rich and yet smooth, the saucy berries were spread nicely and the crunchy crust was actually the icing on that cake! The service was fantastic - just the right amount of attentive and available, friendly and thoughtful! Appreciated her asking if we wanted the bread instead of just brining it out and either watching it go to waste or adding to our waistline due to eating it out of guilt. Overall a lovely first experience at Canyon Creek, thanks!
Didn't want to cook, great place to get a quick reservation and have a great meal.
I had been to this restaurant when in Toronto several years ago and remembered the menu as more upscale - focused on steaks and chops - than its current offerings which now includes burgers and sandwiches. But things change. This "chophouse" has now only one chop on the menu but overall the menu was diverse and inclusive for many tastes, as well as being reasonably priced. It was also much noisier than I recalled, so difficult for our group of five to have the full level of conversation we had hoped for. That being said, it was an enjoyable evening: the food was well-prepared, the waiter provided suggestions and good service. And the steaks arrived exactly as ordered which was a bonus!
Overall, was a nice night out. Food is good but very small portions if you are a big eater. Service was good.
Went to canyon creek on date night and had an enjoyable time. The waiter was very friendly and suggested the tuna roll, which was very delicious. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the food was great too.
I made this reservation last minute and was not disappointed. The service was very good and the food was excellent. Enjoyed the experience!
Waitress was great, even though we made a few special requests and were there for 4 hours, her service was on point, friendly and professional. Very impressed. Food is usually perfection, and 90% of it was. My bacon-wrapped fillet was not as tender, juicy or as good as usual, more like what I'd expect from Montana's or worse. :P Everything else though, including my friend's prime rib was amazing as always. Drinks were also excellent and the bar is well stocked with high quality liquors. I love Canyon Creek and this location in particular, so it's a definite recommend!
THE tuna nachos were excellent, it was has if I was at a very nice restaurant and not a chain restaurant. A wonderful way to start the meal. My compliments to the person that plated it ! Sweet potato fries and the aioli were also very nice as well as the burger. Wine prices were very accommodating and good choices. Thank you
Service was excellent! Food was great however they changed their dpi and I would not order it again.

NATIONWIDE, May 2010 – This summer more than 23,000 students have made a decision to pay money out of their own pockets in order to help improve living conditions for people across the United States and Canada.
255 students from across the nation will be in Indianapolis the week of June 14-19 working on a variety of assignments that range from painting houses to putting new roofs on homes. The students come with their church youth groups, and on average pay $250 to take part in the week. This summer, 97 World Changers projects will take place in more than 85 cities from Alaska to Florida, New York to California, and many places in between. World Changers is in its 20th summer of operation and is an initiative of the North American Mission Board (Southern Baptist Convention).
Following a six-session "how-to" study that participants complete prior to coming, students serving Indianapolis will hit the ground running. The major work begins Tuesday of the project. The students will be staying at Crispus Attucks Medical Magnet for the week. This initiative is in partnership with Indianapolis, Crossroads Baptist Association, as well as local agencies and businesses.
NOTE: There will be a designated Media Relations specialist on site in your city the week of the project that will be able to coordinate interviews with students and residents as well as provide worksite location information for video and photos.

Ben Beck, BCM Director received an encouraging facebook message from a guy he met last spring break on the Beach Reach Mission Trip. When JB's path crossed with Ben last March he had just been kicked out of a bar for causing trouble with the DJ. JB was hungry so he headed to Taco Bell where Ben's street team was hanging out sharing Christ. Ben had a very long conversation with JB about God but JB was not quite ready to change his ways. They exchanged information and have stayed in contact via facebook. Ben prayed that God would send someone into JB's life to continue to share in person about Christ. Below is the facebook message Ben received. God has answered Ben's prayer.
Hey Ben! You'll never guess who's going to start going to church again.. me! I met this friend of mine Doug from work who is around my age and is really passionate about Jesus and I've been talking to him alot lately. It's kind of weird because the way he describes the church he goes to it sounds perfect for me. He also has the same perspective on things when it comes to politics, values etc. Also, I just finished the book Blue Like Jazz and it really put alot of things in perspective for me. It was actually kind of weird how I found it. This past weeknd I was riding in a friends car who was borrowing it from her dad, I happened to reach in the back seat and pull the book out. After thinking about the chances of that happening, meeting my friend Doug at work, and thinking about how we ran into each other in Panama, I feel like God is trying to have a personal relationship with me and I haven't been trying very hard to form a relationship with him. The book also talked about alot on what you were trying to tell me in Panama about God's grace and how we are sinful creatures, but the thing is we should understand that Jesus Christ died on the Cross so we can be saved from our sins. And that Christianity is a struggle with one's faith and we will mess up at times, but it is in our sinful nature to. It talks about how easy it is to follow the dark, and stray away from God. I guess what I'm trying to say is Thank you Ben for talking to me that night at Taco Bell. Not only have I came to Peace with myself, I've been able to share some things with my little brother and now he's starting to read the book Blue Like Jazz and hopefully he will start going to church with me also. I hope all is well and you'll be in my prayers!

Prayer walkers will focus on needs in Greenfield
4 churches collaborate to cover all streets in prayer at same time
Pastor Roger Kinion of Calvary Baptist Church, one of the four churches participating in the walk, answered questions by e-mail about the event.
Question: What exactly is a prayer walk?
Answer: Prayer walking is basically a proactive way of praying for your community where you actually walk through a neighborhood while praying for it. As you walk, you make observations and ask God to make you sensitive to the needs of the community. Then you continue to pray according to the needs God reveals to you.
Our prayer walk is called One Prayer to signify the unity of spirit and purpose the four churches have that are coming together, asking God to bless our community.
Q: What will participants in this walk do?
A: Teams from the four churches will be assigned specific streets throughout the city of Greenfield to prayer-walk. The goal is that every street in Greenfield will be covered in prayer at the same time. Following the unified prayer walk, the prayer teams from all four churches will come back to Brandywine Community Church for a time of celebration and worship.
Q: What churches are participating?
A: The four churches are Brandywine Community Church, Park Chapel Christian Church, Realife Church and Calvary Baptist Church.
Q: Can anyone participate?
A: Participation is encouraged to be routed through one of the four host churches.
Q: Where did the idea originate for this event?
A: Prayer walking has been a part of Calvary for about two years. It is a great way to become sensitive to community needs. The idea for One Prayer was birthed out of a conference attended by Matt Wickham, the pastor at Brandywine, and Dean Nester, the pastor at Park Chapel. When they returned home, they sought out interest from Adam Detamore, the pastor at Realife, and myself.
With all four churches being in agreement that prayer is the starting point for God making a difference in our community, the planning began. During a time of prayer, the title and focus "One Prayer" came to life.
Q: What's the ultimate objective?
A: The ultimate objective is to see God glorified by prayer -- walking every street in Greenfield at one time, praying in unison for our community, and allowing our congregations to work together to accomplish this goal.
Q: Do you see value in different churches joining together like this to collaborate in activities?
A: Absolutely! We are each different in some ways and alike in others. It is a great learning experience to join together and to realize we have so much in common and we are not alone in our faith and our desire to see our community reached with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Firefighters respond to an early morning, Saturday January 17, 2009, at Oak Creek Community Church, Darin Garton, pastor. The roof and attic in the sanctuary were affected, along with smoke and water damage. Fortunately the fire was contained. The church will be meeting in a temporary facility until the repairs can be made. Darin came to Indiana 15 years ago as the church planter for the church. He has been their only pastor, and serves on the state convention executive board. Pray for the church family during this time of re-building. Darin stated, "Even though the building was damaged, the church is in good shape, because the church is the people. No church member was injured as a result of the fire."
"A God Size Story"
I am continually amazed at how God continues to work through a handful of people that just give Him room to work. Since I have been a part of Elston this time around (I grew up in this church), the steady growth has been somewhat of a miracle. Our location, and the difficulty in accessing our facility goes against most "church growth stragegies" (a heavily traveled highway, populated mostly by commuters and delivery vehicles with a median preventing direct access to our church). Our worship center is small and we have very little room to grow. Yet God continues to bring them in! We just started two services this fall and we already need to consider "what to do next" as more families keep coming.
Several years ago when we decided to reach out to the children, and build a program to teach them, we knew the families would come. And they have. Many of them with complex issues that we feel inept to handle. But in spite of us, God is moving and bringing restoration to marriages and people.
Challenges? You bet. I'm just grateful that He's "more than able to do above and beyond what we imagine or dream."
Running Hard After Him!

Senior Pastor

Dear Friends,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Many of you may know I recently experienced a very difficult period with my health going through quadruple by-pass surgery, including the "Mays procedure" to improve the beating function of the heart. The surgery was October 10, 2008, at Jewish Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky, by Dr. Dowling, one of the best cardiac surgeons in the region. After two more days in ICU and eight days in the Heart and Lung Center at Jewish Hospital, I went home to continue my recovery. November 17 I began Cardiac Rehab at the hospital in Scottsburg and am doing very well. I want to say a very grateful word of THANKS to each and every individual, church congregation and our state convention staff for your prayers and support.
But, as Paul Harvey would say, there is a "rest of the story." God answered prayer that made the by-pass surgery possible. Two days before the surgery Dr. Dowling said he was not sure they would be able to do the surgery at all. One third of my heart muscle was dead, one third was dormant and not working, and I had a very bad arrhythmia problem. He ordered a viability study for the next 24 hours to see if surgery was possible. If not, the only option was a heart transplant. I told him we would do what we do best and pray while he did the study. He told me he would be praying also. Many of you received the prayer request by phone, e-mail or other means. God heard you and answered in a very amazing way.
Almost exactly 24 hours later Dr. Dowling reported the following: four hours into the study my heart was the same as he had reported but at eight and 12 hours into the study there was no dead tissue in my heart. What was dormant was working and he was confident they could do the surgery. Please, do not miss this: dead heart tissue once dead does not come back on its own. Something had to happen to make dormant tissue begin to beat again. Understand also the doctors did not put any medicine into the heart that would have caused this.
There is only One who can bring life where there is death; only One who can bring such healing to make surgery possible. I knew what was happening and so did the doctors. They were surprised and excited that they would be able to do the surgery. God is good and faithful and ALL THE GLORY AND HONOR goes to Him. God's people prayed for me. I'll never forget this and every chance I get, I'll tell this story to His Honor. God, help me to be worthy of what you have done and help whoever reads this to know You are able to touch their lives and bring eternal life where there has been nothing but death.
Again, thank you for praying and know that God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all we could ask or think.
Still In His Service,
Jim Downey
World Changers come to Indianapolis
Teenagers from the states of Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Illinois and Indiana came to Indianapolis to work as part of the "World Changers" program the week of June 2-6, 2008. Some 105 teenage volunteers are in 8-10 different locations. The groups began working on Monday morning, June 2 to paint houses, put in new windows, tear out old sheet rock, throw away trash, and put on a new roof.
The groups represent young people from junior high through college age. The homes they are working on were recommended for this program through a partnership between the Crossroads Baptist Association (Indianapolis area) of the State Convention of Baptists in Indiana, and the United Northwest Area Development program of Indianapolis.
As most students spend their summer break soaking in rays at the beach or lounging around the house, 105 teenagers and their adult leaders, have been hard at work on this week-long refurbishment and construction project. Several of the homes were projects that would help current residence with some needed repairs. The other projects were clean-up projects that will the city to make the homes livable residence for low-income families.
Two of the students who are participating in this year's group are James Cash from Dublin, Georgia, Dublin Bible Church and Hailey Snyder from Mt. Vernon, Illinois. This trip was James' first time to participate in a World Changers event. He came because he wanted to do something to help people, to grow in his relationship with the Lord and to grow together with his youth group. Hailey is on her third trip with World Changers. She first learned about World Changers when her youth group attended Youth Encounter in Illinois. Her youth group came back from that event and began talking about how they could get involved in World Changers.
This summer more than 22,000 students nationwide will participate in World Changers. They will pay on average $260 to participate instead of staying home and earning money. They will participate in 95 construction and community projects from Alaska to Pennsylvania to South Carolina.
World Changers is a project of the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. The program began in 1990 with 137 volunteers who refurbished homes in Briceville, Tennessee. Since that first outing, 290,000 students have renovated more than 18,000 homes in 900 communities worldwide. This year 23,000 students will participate in 95 projects in the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada and 20 international locations.

Going globalWe've reached a tipping point in how the world works. The largest economy in the world is no longer the economy of any one country — it is the economy of the global trade of goods and services. Countries making an impact in the world of global trade are those connected to the global mainframe, not those that operate within the silos of their national geographies. Global trade has accelerated the formation of one world, one marketplace; a place where boundary-free commerce relies on worldwide connectivity. The characteristic of global trade is also changing. Formerly small traders are becoming major trading powers, and trade is occurring with countries outside the traditional players. The biggest change is that an increasingly large part of world trade is comprised by trade with and among developing economies. Since 1995, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development has kept detailed data on the source and destination of exports. The data indicate that the proportion of exports originating in the developed world and the developing world stayed the same until around 1999. In other words, exports from both were growing at the same rate. Since 1999, however, the developing world has been catching up. The developed world still grew: Between 2000 and 2009, total developed country goods exports rose by 66 percent. For developing countries, however, the figure was 147 percent. Why so much emphasis on global trade? It helps businesses become more competitive by providing opportunities to expand businesses worldwide. We cannot and should not stop this trend, but we can leverage the trend to strengthen our economic recovery, generate growth and create jobs. There is no denying that Asia has become central in the world economy with the rapid growth from developing countries like India and China. China will surpass the U.S. by 2017 in purchasing power parity terms and will account for twice the America's share of imports and exports by 2030, according to The Economist's forecast. India is expected to become the third-largest economy next year. Aligned with the recently ratified KORUS FTA, Korea is also striving to further its status as a global trade hub sharing markets with the U.S. along with the ASEAN and EU pacts. The increasing trend to trading across the border is beneficial to Korea because many of domestic business will be given an opportunity to become a major player in the global trade market. Particularly, small- and medium-enterprises (herein, SMEs) in Korea are expected to experience a significant growth. According to a study by the Small and Medium Business Administration, in the year the KOREU FTA was ratified in 2011, exports from domestic SMEs to Europe were increased by over 18 percent. Add to that the FTA between Korea and the U.S. is expected to create a $1.38 billion trade surplus for Korea, according to the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy and the Korea Development Institute. More specifically, SMEs in auto parts, textile, and electronics industries are expected to promote export and global business more vigorously. Global trade is at the very heart of FedEx business. Our network is a critical enabler for the global supply chain. By facilitating global connections, FedEx believes when individual countries enable trade, they benefit not only to themselves, but also other nations with which they trade. By improving market access and working to provide efficient customs procedures, FedEx contributes to enhanced opportunities for both importers and exporters. In this increasingly crowded marketplace, being globally competitive requires having a global mindset and prioritizing connections. With access to the internet and access to FedEx, businesses can sell goods and services and find suppliers in virtually any market. |
