Previous Challenge Entry (Level 3 - Advanced)
Topic: Walk (07/20/06)
TITLE: Be Careful Mothers.. The Devil Will Walk Behind You | Previous Challenge Entry
By Bonnie Johnson
Are you paying attention to, those who are walking around you, and your children, if you are not, I use to babysit, for a woman and her 4 children. It was a new job, paying twenty dollars a week. Little did I know, we were being followed.
All of the sudden the phone calls started. I picked up on the phone calls very quickly and notified the police... The phone calls were to be traced, but this was a wise person very demonic.
I tried my best to shake this feeling of being followed, I would jump at each noise I heard outside..... Seems God was watching over me, more than I would ever know. This person turned out to be a Bank President..... He had , numbers, addresses....He knew times, dates, numbers......... There were no secrets from him.... My name was on the check. He knew who I was and where I lived...... When coming into the house, one night... My brand new dog, would give his life for us, He followed me home, The dog was given ground glass, enough to kill many dogs. His name was Shorty.... He was raised on pancakes.... A big beautiful dog, Elk hound and Healer.........He heard the walk......one step at a time... He never left the door at the top of the steps..The constant growl would cost him his life. The intruder left in a hurry, we were safe. The next morning I went home as usual. A few moments later after letting the dogs run, his brother Shep returned, but not Shorty.
Mothers watch where you walk. Predictors are out there wanting your baby's.
Fetal research, Abortion, Harvesting, are no different , They are waiting, cold and calculating. Scientists wait, Like an intruder, in the middle of the night. They use only one difference. They try to use laws, to walk among us. The dangers are real. Mothers guard your children, your unborn.... Guard them before it is to late. You walk among enemy's, as well as the protectors, in America. They wait for your childrens soul, not healing The Devil is out for souls, the other he has already lost..his walk.

Consider this a companion piece to Friday's post about conservative news reporters.
The best part of Sean Hannity's encounter with Ted Koppel may be that Hannity clearly did not think Koppel would actually say he was bad for America, which is why he spent days whining about it. I don't think the assessment moves the public dialog further, especially given that Koppel misdiagnoses Hannity as someone who "attracts people who are determined that ideology is more important than facts."
As Noah C. Rothman observed last week, ideology really cannot be considered the driving force in the age of Trump. Rothman identifies partisanship and the market pressure for news outlets to chase controversy as the culprits. This is far closer to the mark, but this could be fleshed out more.
To be sure, the ESPNization of politics and political media reinforces both partisanship and sensationalism, though this can also be seen as a negative feedback loop. Having written about that topic already, I'll stick to the other half of Koppel's critique.
Hannity's defense is that people can tell the difference between a news show and an opinion show. As just mentioned, the lines between the two have increasingly blurred over the past few decades. But implicit in the defense is that an opinion show is held to a different standard than a news show, and not merely different, but a lesser standard when it comes to being based in fact.
Indeed, Hannity frequently defends himself by claiming that he is "not a journalist." In reality, he is an opinion journalist or an advocacy journalist and one trusted with rather large media platforms.
As such (or like anyone ostensibly debating a position), credibility matters, or should matter. This can mean conceding a weak point in one's argument, or pre-emptively addressing an opponent's strong one.
But most of all, credibility ought to require some level of fidelity to facts. If you read a columnist and notice (s)he frequently plays fast and loose with the facts, or omits crucial ones, eventually you will conclude the person is not credible and thus not persuasive.
Thus, when someone like Hannity flip-flops on immigration reform because the RNC favored it in 2013, but Donald Trump was the hot item in 2015, it should matter. Indeed, Hannity knows it matters, which is why he squeals like a stuck pig and lashes out when people mention it.
Or when Hannity goes from fulminating that Pres. Obama should be doing more to imprison Russian stooge Julian Assange to vouching for Assange's credibility himself, when the only thing that changed was Hannity's perception that WikiLeaks was hurting the Democrats, it should matter.
When, in the desire to later claim that WikiLeaks did not hurt the Democrats in 2016, Hannity embraces a conspiracy theory to blame the CIA for WikiLeaks, it should matter.
Hannity's ideology is big ratings and as such is not fueled by partisanship so much as constrained by it — though not as much as he would be constrained by political principles or a fidelity to the facts.
And I don't begrudge the man making a fortune from it, though I suppose I am not laissez-faire enough to think there shouldn't also be truth in advertising. So to the extent he built that fortune as a True Conservative, he wasn't being honest with his audience. And to the extent that his partisan position is more important to him than facts or principles in the pursuit of ratings, he isn't being honest with his audience.
Accordingly, where Koppel is probably correct is in his assertion that Hannity attracts the people who don't care any more than he does. The people who care tune him out.
One last thing: Since I'm riding the high horse on this subject today, I note that an astute reader of Friday's post contacted me over the weekend to remind me that the reporters who recently left the IJR aren't conservatives. I let my desire for a quasi-happy ending cause me to make the common error of lumping those who work for a particular outlet in with the outlet's editorial outlook, and welcome the correction.

Self, you need to make a bank run. Its 35 degrees out. Better use the remote start and warm the car up first…
Drives to bank
Self, you need to make a bank run.
10 minutes later…
Well, walking here was nice but you should run back. Just to prove you can!
Runs most of the way back to the office.
Lets go ahead and ignore the tequila shot and cocktails that followed (quite spontaneously and unexpected, honest!) and just take a moment to reflect on the whole running thing, shall we? I have had long standing rules about when it's appropriate to run. Three of them.
- Commercial break during a Packer game. Obviously a rule invented prior to DVR which should give you an idea of how long standing this rule is.
- Ugly rapist chasing me. Really no explanation should be necessary here.
- I totally forget #3. But I know it existed once so I'm certain it's solid and should, therefore have been upheld.
I've recently been introduced to a substitute for #2- Rabid tiger. I'm undecided on the status of this rule. I mean honestly, the chances of me outrunning a tiger, rabid or not, are pretty fucking slim, so do I even bother trying? A year ago the answer was a hard no. Now, well, I dunno…
But more importantly, as I rapidly approach the close of my 43rd trip around the sun, breaking the rules is apparently my thing. Because commercial breaks during a Packer game have become insignificant. Either I'm at the game and I'm gonna miss something no matter what or I'm at home where the bathroom's so close running would be more absurd than I thought it heretofore. And an ugly rapist, well, lets face it, I'm no spring chicken so maybe I shouldn't be so choosy. Perhaps I need to reevaluate my line of thought and all. And three, well, I can't really e expected to uphold a rule I can't remember can I?
SO here it is. January 8, 2018, and I am thrilled beyond reasonable comprehension that it's more than 30 degrees and the sun is mostly shining and I an go for a run/walk. So I did. And it was fan-fucking-tastic.

Grade8: Math Midterm – Material
Always create a plan before you start studying for the math exam.. Don't just read over it like you would for a history class, because you can actually do math, but you can seldom do history. Working problems out will help burn them into your mind, and remember: if you can't solve the problem before the exam, you won't be able to solve it on the exam either. It is important to do questions because this is essentially how you are going to be tested. With questions.

Well this is it, no turning back now, chances are that if your reading this there's a very good chance that you got here via DashDotSlash.net (my main 'work' and portfolio sites) new redesign. The old design needed replacing as it had become less about the art and more about selling you stuff. I suppose I knew the time had came for a big change when I stuck the art t-shirts on the front of my site (as a joke by the way nothing more), alas people took it all a wee bit too seriously and more importantly some had got so caught up with looking at stuff to buy that they totally bypassed its entire reason to exist....the art.
Now that's not good, in fact as my sons favourite TV show (Charlie and Lola's Lola character) would say 'it's very extremely not at all good'. So something had to be done ...and sharpish
I had planned on rolling this new design out a bit sooner but alas I got caught up on models for 2 different TV shows, the teaching videos I was asked to do for FilterFoundry.com and various other stuff for Project 2813 games. Alas there are only so many hours in the day and sometimes you have to prioritise a bit. I should be able to show stuff and outline about the TV shows in about a month once the second one has been broadcast.
On a side note I've been doing a bit more programming (Yes I know I said I was going to stop as it simply takes up no time for very little financial return, but this was a paid gig and I try not to turn down decent money lol). More of that once it's out as its for a non Autodesk company.
Also I knocked up in my dinner hour from programming the aforementioned 'thing' a new Mudbox plug-in called MudTidy. Now I warn you it's not going to rock your world, as it's a utility plug-in that creates in the same directory as your Mudbox scene file a set of folders for everything from maps, or reference images to FBX files to Maya and 3Dmax and Softimage folders etc. Basically it's to help keep things tidy and organised so you don't lose valuable assets at any stage. It was knocked out in about 40 mins and I may add a few things to it as I have time. You can get it for Mudbox 2011 (both vanilla and subscription advantage pack versions) for 64 bit only on PC HERE.
I stopped supporting 32 bit versions of Mudbox a while back as to be blunt using a 32 bit version of Mudbox is like putting a Skoda engine in a Ferrari lol. Plus every version I support, its yet another version of the SDK to have on my machine, and that's without getting into Mac and Linux versions. I may well do compiles for both those OS's at some point, but like all things it depends vastly on time.

So the NFL Free Agent Season officially kicked off today, and there was much rejoicing. But the really big news (for me, anyway) is still far way, apparently: Brett Favre is still in limbo, and Randy Moss isn't talking (although speculation is he's heading to the Panthers). Until there's news on either of those fronts — or the 49ers sign Tom Brady — please do not disturb me. I'll be in my Indiana bucket.
While even a humiliating loss in Super Bowl XLII might not prevent Patriots fans from remaining "chest-proud," let's not get delusional in the thought that Moss can't be tempted to go elsewhere. Any perceived allegiance to a team quickly goes away with the phrase, guaranteed money. How badly, for instance, would the Carolina Panthers break the bank for a Steve Smith-Moss combo? One NFL insider tells the Charlotte Observer: "Carolina has freed up a lot of cap space with all the guys they've cut recently. Suppose they offer Randy a 6-year, $60 million deal with $25 million guaranteed? Now, if the difference is one or two million, Moss probably gives the Patriots a discount and goes back. But $5 million extra guaranteed? These guys have egos. And he knows that Carolina has been working aggressively to get better. Who's to say he doesn't make the move?"
Other stuff of interest:
• Jonathan Vilma to the Saints. New Orleans traded an undisclosed draft pick for the Jets' middle linebacker, who had 118 tackles last season and was named AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2004. Ah, that many tackles will be easy to make up. Meanwhile, Carolina dealt DT Kris Jenkins to the Jets for third- and fifth-round draft picks this year. Deal was for $35 million with $20 million guaranteed.
• Asante Samuel about to sign with Eagles. It'll probably happen just as you're reading this. Sorry, Patriots fans. At least Tedy Bruschi is back!
• Redskins love them some Todd Collins. Washington agreed to terms today with the quarterback, who is expected to be a backup to Jason Campbell.
• It's hard to believe that the Rams still had a player from their Los Angeles days, but they did: Until today. For the second time in three years, the team cut wide receiver Isaac Bruce. I smell a move to the 49ers, where new offensive coordinator Mike Martz will be waiting for him with a warm smile and a muffin basket.
Overall, it's a seller's market out there, kids. Not a lot to choose from I'm afraid. Unless you're looking for pitching.

About 90% of the time prospective clients are not aware of historic tax credits.
More often than not, designing and renovating a building can be easier than actually funding the project. What many clients and developers, including non-profit, for profit, and government entities don't realize is that they may be able to finance a substantial portion of the total project cost through relatively under-the-radar tax credits, one of which is a federal historic tax credit. Typically, people associate historic tax credits with designated landmarks or significant turn-of-the-century structures, but in reality, even a utilitarian 1960s warehouse could be eligible. In my experience, about 90% of the time prospective clients are not aware of this mechanism—and this is something we bring to the table.
Understanding the Process
A project can qualify for a 20 percent credit of qualified rehabilitation expenses—both hard and soft costs—if the building is either listed on the National Register of Historic Places, or certified as contributing to a historic district. Yet a building need not be a century old to be eligible, nor must it be already listed. For listing, it needs to be at least 50 years old—thus, predating 1967—which means that many of the buildings across the country today are actually candidates for this program. Consider that the majority of building stock was constructed in the '50s and '60s in the post-WWII expansion related to the Baby Boom. Think Brutalist buildings on university campuses or modern landmarks by the likes of Mies van der Rohe, Minoru Yamasaki, Louis Kahn, and Marcel Breuer.
Our team is accustomed to taking on the major legwork of what is really a three-stage process, from applying for listing in the Register to certifying the completed project for the tax credits. Part One is the nomination for listing in the National Register. If approved, Part Two is developing a program and design for the building, documenting the changes needed to make the building functional, operational, efficient, and aesthetically appealing, while also detailing which existing historic elements will be retained or restored. Before any work can commence, these documents require approval by the State Historic Preservation Office under advisement of the National Park Service (NPS). It is worth noting that old buildings that do not attain listing in the Register can still earn a 10 percent tax credit.
Once construction is complete, it's on to Part Three: The NPS reviews and certifies that everything was done in accordance with the documents from Part Two. This final step can sometimes throw a wrench at practices less knowledgeable or experienced in this tax program, but our team has never been in a situation where tax credits were denied in Part Three. Even if there were instances where items of controversy emerged in the final review, we've been able to make minor adjustments to obtain final approval.
Stretching the Dollar and Tax Credits to Do More
We have used this expertise to go even further, as in the case of the recently opened Murphy Arts District in El Dorado, Arkansas. When a former client asked me to review plans for a single building renovation proposed by a different architecture firm, I reviewed them pro bono and informed him that by changing the approach to the building, simplifying it, and using tax equity, he could do much, much more.
"With the money you're saving, you can go in and convert other buildings in the neighborhood and make more than just a historic theater," I advised. There was a 1930s auto dealership and filling station that could be renovated as a 3,000-seat music facility, restaurant, and cabaret. The McWilliams Furniture Building, which was an empty warehouse, could be a museum. A shoe repair shop could become a bar and concessions to support this area. All of these could use the tax credits, but none of them were on the National Register. Thankfully, we knew how to do that.
Leveraging More Credits
In addition to the federal tax credits, projects may be able to also utilize state tax credits and new market tax credits. The combination of these three sources has yielded as much as 44 percent of capital requirements for projects, such as the renovation of the Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville, Tennessee. In the end, by obtaining somewhere between $16 and $20 million in tax credit equity, the client was able to mobilize a district encompassing eight historic buildings. That's where you can do something transformational. And that's where this program becomes really important to our practice, our clients, and the cities where projects reside because without this mechanism, we'd have entirely different results.

In Their Own Words
"I create environments that are, I hope, exciting and surprising and challenge your accepted way of looking at something. I think that's a very important thing to do, especially teaching what I do, which is, frankly, how to be creative. And I think you can teach that. I had to learn to do that myself. And the techniques I use are exactly the same techniques that I teach."
"There are two parts to creating. One is exploring and the other is culling. If you confuse them, then you won't get anywhere. Mick Goodrick once said to me, 'When you swim, there is stroking and then there's gliding. And if you only stroke you won't be able to swim, because you won't get anywhere. You need to be able to glide in between strokes.' There's a period of time when you are capturing the things floating around through you, and you have to be very careful not to be judgmental at that point. There is also the point when you need to be critical and throw things out, but if you go there at the wrong point in the process you'll simply muck it up."
"Also, remember that you will produce bad music as well as good music. In fact, you can't produce one without the other, because bad music is what you make on the way to making good music. So you just can't worry about it. You need to worry about whether it's clear, whether it's saying what you want it to be saying, whether it's concise, and whether it's powerful. The word good isn't in there."
"Berklee is about real-world teaching. It's essential that I continue to have an active professional life to teach what I do. The tools of the trade are changing so much. A lot of it is technological, and some of it is otherwise. If you take a look at a movie now, you'll see a 90-minute movie with 85 minutes of music. If you look at a 90-minute movie from 20 years ago, they'll have 35 minutes of music. The grammar, the logic, of how movies are made has changed unbelievably in 20 years. My students are going to have a completely different world than I have. So they have to learn to learn. They have to learn how to think in forward-looking ways. All that is part of being creative, being open to new experiences and new styles and new tools."

February 20, 20xx
Ms. Margaret Campion
Director, Corporate Services
Riviera Industries Inc.
245 Dearborn Park Road
Chicago, Il 60610
Dear Ms. Campion:
It was a pleasure meeting you briefly at last week's Board of Trade event. It's amazing how small the world does seem sometimes, considering that we both earned our undergraduate degrees at U. of Kansas, even overlapping for one year! I suppose we were destined to eventually meet face-to-face.
I was fascinated by your synopsis of the history of Riviera Industries over the past, almost half-century. Clearly, your company has a rich corporate heritage and tradition. At the same time, the company has been blessed with a continuum of leaders of foresight and imagination who had the courage to change course at key points along the way so that the company could remain competitive and continue to lead its industry.
As I was mentioning to you, Final Edition Publications is a specialty publisher that focuses on corporate publications including annual reports, corporate profiles and corporate histories. We have been in business for over 15 years and during that time have grown from a two-person start-up, to a serious corporate publisher with over 100 employees. We have been contracted by over a dozen Fortune 500 companies to produce both annual and special occasion publications on their behalf.
After our chat at last week's meeting, it occurred to me that with Riviera approaching its 50th anniversary, it would be the perfect occasion to produce a Corporate History to celebrate your company's first half-century. It so happens, that these are exactly the types of corporate publications that we specialize in here at Final Edition. In fact, we have produced corporate histories for dozens of companies.
With Riviera's 50th just around the corner, I'm sure that you have been thinking about ways to make that anniversary a special one. Accordingly, I would very much like to meet with you and show you some of the corporate work we have done, and brief you further on our services. I have a strong feeling that what we offer at Final Edition might be just the kind of thing you've been looking for to celebrate Riviera's 50th.
Please feel free to call me at 745-2398 so that we can discuss this further. If I don't hear from you by the end of next week I will follow up with you and see if we can set up a meeting at your convenience.
Yours truly,
Raymond Gaudet
Manager, Corporate Programs

Blame Game
The Arabs: A History
By Eugene Rogan
Allen Lane/The Penguin Press 553pp £25 order from our bookshop
All is not well with the Arabs. They have not found a place in the world that does them justice. The entire social and political order perpetuates an absolutism that is apparently immune to reform. In one Arab country after another, in one century after another right up to the present day, some strong man has seized power, killed whomever he feels he has to, and then defended himself against the next ambitious careerist trying in turn to wrest power for himself.
The violence is as repetitive as it is destructive. In recent times, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Algeria, Sudan and Somalia have experienced mass murder. Currently Yemen seems destined to undergo yet another of the bloodstained tests of strength inherent in an absolute system.

Munger Place Historic District
5000 - 5123 Tremont
Tremont Street, in the middle of the Munger Place Historic District, was the only street that did not suffer the indignity of the 1950s and 1960s apartments that were scattered throughout the rest of the historic district. The homes on Tremont, Victor and Worth were required to cost a minimum of $2,000.
Every historic home photograph in this section was taken during the week of the 2005 Munger Place Historic Home Tour celebrating the centennial of this historically and architecturally significant neighborhood. These photographs represent 30 years of neighborhood revitalization and restoration in the Munger Place Historic District. Please call me, Douglas Newby, at 214.522.1000 to discuss Douglas Newby & Associates representing you as we search and help you evaluate the best historic home for you.

When Barack Obama issued his recess appointments of Richard Cordray as head of the CFPB and three nominees to the NLRB, he and the White House blamed Republican obstructionism for the decision to use the extraordinary appointment power. With Cordray, the GOP had unquestionably blocked his appointment. But how about the three NLRB nominees? Not only did the Senate not have time to consider their appointments, the White House hadn't even had time to add two of them to their list of nominees awaiting consideration:
The two Democrats that President Barack Obama appointed to the National Labor Relations Board during what he considered a congressional "recess" are not on the White House's official list of Obama's appointments and nominations for various positions.
Obama referred his two Democratic nominees, Sharon Block and Richard Griffin, to the Senate on Dec. 15. The Senate adjourned for the year – but did not go into an official recess — on the following day.
WhiteHouse.gov tracks the status of all of Obama's appointments and nominations. Block and Griffin do not appear on that list — a sign that the administration rushed the recess appointments through too quickly for the Senate to even consider them.
"It's hard to argue that the Senate was obstructing these Democratic nominees when they don't even appear on the administration's own list of nominations and appointments," U.S. Chamber of Commerce labor policy specialist Glenn Spencer told The Daily Caller.
Bear in mind that the NLRB had fallen one short of a quorum, which means that it couldn't take any action until the Senate confirmed at least one of the appointments. Obama should have had these appointments to the Senate long before mid-December. Instead, they came so late that even the White House hadn't had time to update its own records. That exposes the NLRB recess appointments as due to executive ineptitude rather than legislative obstructionism.
Got an Obamateurism of the Day? If you see a foul-up by Barack Obama, e-mail it to me at [email protected] with the quote and the link to the Obamateurism. I'll post the best Obamateurisms on a daily basis, depending on how many I receive. Include a link to your blog, and I'll give some link love as well. And unlike Slate, I promise to end the feature when Barack Obama leaves office.

Alpro Go On
Go on! That is exactly the motto of the new vegetable curd alternative Alpro Go On as well as the Alpro Go On Soy yoghurt varieties with mango, black currant and passion fruit. Together with Alpro I have given some thought to this subject, which I would like to share with you. You will probably have similar feelings about the one or other Go On tip.
– in Zusammenarbeit mit Alpro
Morning Rituals A cold shower, a delicious breakfast and cycling
Let's start with the toughest ritual – a COLD shower! Nothing will make me more awake and fitter in the morning than a cold shower – I feel fresh and my whole body gets alive. Who really needs Actimel to activate the body's defenses? An empty stomach does not help either. I can never miss a breakfast, however short it may be. I prepare my breakfast varieties either before or after showering, just down to my whim.
Year by year I turned more and more away from milk products and since the beginning of this year I have also passed up coffee (wow, already six months, how fast time goes by). Now I have my daily green tea to go with either oats and almond drink, delicious smoothies or power curds with chia seeds. I do not pass up completely milk products, but I notice that my body feels better, when I eat less of them. At this point the vegetable curd alternative Go On from Alpro is a good match, as it satiates me until noon. But only after having cycled to the university or my workplace I get completely awake. Even though it is only five to ten minutes – my body needs them to get up to speed.
So ganz wach bin ich dann aber erst, nachdem ich mit dem Fahrrad zur Uni oder in die Arbeit gefahren bin. Auch wenn es nur 5-10 Minuten sind – die braucht mein Körper um auf Hochtouren zu kommen!
Spontaneously a song occurred to me – Wild Child from WEEKED. One of the best songs ever, which reminds me of my glorious time with my flat mates in Paris. Music simply gets you in the mood. Besides I can maintain that a got a bit of rhythm in my blood and thus music always gives me a kick. Sometimes it is also tolerable to dance alone in front of a mirror.
Some of my absolute favorites are:
- Breakeven – The Script
- Aaron – Paul Kalkbrenner
- Never Be Alone – Justice vs. Simian
- Paper Planes – M.I.A
- All Good Things come to an end – Nelly Furtado feat. Zero Assoluto
jacket – Hallhuber (hier in white – blue hier / more here)
lace dress – Hallhuber (currently on Sale here / similar here)
Lace Up Espadrilles – Soludos (here / similar here)
ring – Eve's Jewels (here)
striped dress – Massimo Dutti (mehr here)
shoes – Navyboot Switzerland (here)
Friendships are important to me and I always try to cultivate my relationships. My best friends date back to my school years, and notwithstanding the distance between South Tyrol and Munich nothing can separate us. As an example I can cite my best girlfriend. We never quarreled and jealousy has never been a topic, we simply enjoy having a good time together. For one year already we exchange Email updates besides Whatsapp and short exchange a nice variety. Furthermore I am happy having known some very good girlfriends through blogging. In this regard the most important Go On Moment is not feeling alone thanks to good friends, who motivate and help you, when necessary.
Good Food
There is nothing nicer than eating! As I said, I have a copious breakfast taking me through until lunch. In the afternoon it may be a small snack, and the three different tastes of vegetable soy yoghurts from Alpro are an ideal match for it. They are very creamy and I feel they have almost the same taste as normal yoghurts. The perfect Go On – Moment also en route.
What are your pick-me-ups and how to you motivate yourselves? I am looking forward to hearing from you!
I wish you a wonderful day!
Alpro Go On

'The Son of Man Came Not to Be Served, but to Serve' (Matthew 20:28)
When you come to any gathering of people, there is a whole lot of work to make that happen. Some of that work is seen by others. But much of it is not; those efforts are no less important than the visible ones, but are sometimes not thought about much.
Churches are no different, especially smaller ones like Evangelical Church of Fairport. We rely heavily on our body members to voluntarily use their God-given gifts to edify the church and perfect the saints (Ephesians 4:12). It takes a team of people to conduct a service, even one as simple as our monthly Wednesday night prayer meeting that on the surface seems like a "no-brainer," as they say.
For this reason, we encourage membership at ECF. It opens up more ways to plug-in and serve the body than if you just attend regularly. There's still plenty you can do as a non-member, but why settle for the lowest common denominator?
Here are just some of the areas at ECF where you can get involved, participate and also serve and put to good use your Spiritual gifts:
- Men's Ministry (Contact: Pastor Ken)
- Women's Ministry (Contact: Diana Holbein)
- Youth Fellowship (Contact: Bob & Hilda Collier)
- Multimedia Team (Contact: Pastor Scott)
- Meals Ministry (Contact: Deacons)
- Nursery/Child Care (Contact: Christian Education Director)
- Food Pantry (Contact: Deacons)
- Communion Fellowship Meal Kitchen Crew
- Greeter/Usher (Contact: Deacons)
- Music Team (Contact: Pastor Scott)

Sad to see the poor reviews in here. Well im new to the city and have always felt comfortable in this bar since arriving. They do a screening at the door so your not bringing in illegal substances/weapons.It does make you feel a bit safer, of course if it ever happens , they have some great door guys to curb that crap.The piano bar is relaxing , fun and full of smiles anytime I ever went.
The music in Cellblock section is incredible, people are whoopin it up and the sweaty boys and girls just love it.
I can only make a small suggestion in regards to amping up a couple theme nights here n there, n bring out the sexy asian guys in the city---- ooopzzz they do tend to be my weakness--if ur reading this MR Doorman, i know yur smilin at me. Lastly Id like to see Zippers improve on a website and focus on more pictures and comments with a listing of events--- Keep it up guys--- lovin it!!!1

I too was cussed out by the back door man. He lied to the staff and told them I was enebriated. Which resulted in being asked to leave. He is GONE now TG.
When I see Greg at the piano, I leave, he can't keep tempo, and his voice is gone. (time to retire). Kendall on the otherhand, is talented, friendly, polite and a joy to be around. He's just a little too loud. Kendall: "Sing along!
' Turn your voice down pls.
U would deffenately recommend this place.
As for being frisked! It helps me feel safe knowing there are no weapons/drugs there.
I recommend this place.

There is a new policy of frisking customers at the door. Treating customers, especially regulars as criminals, is not the best way to develop loyalty.

Anthony Trollope(1945)
A New Judgement
A non fiction book by Elizabeth Bowen and Victoria Glendinning
In this lively, affectionate, and compellingly readable biography, Victoria Glendinning, the greatly admired literary biographer (of Rebecca West, Vita Sackville-West, Edith Sitwell, and Elizabeth Bowen), gives us for the first time a woman's intuitive view of Anthony Trollope. She brings to her story of this legendary writer a fresh emphasis on family, particularly on Trollope's relationship with his formidable mother, with his failure of a father, with his bullying older brother (Mother's favorite), and with his tubercular sisters. But it is Anthony as husband and lover that intrigues her most; she investigates with sensitivity the nature of his (unconsummated) love for the liberated young American Kate Field, and, most important, she discovers Rose, regarded in past biographies as a shadowy figure of a wife but viewed here as central to his life, 'bone of his bone, flesh of his flesh'. Throughout, Glendinning explores the disjunction between the outer man - the hearty, 'clubbish, roast-beef' type of Englishman that Anthony became - and the vulnerable inner self, haunted by an unhappy childhood (he was a scruffy charity student at Harrow, hazed by his own brother, separated from his adored mother for years while she was discovering America). We come to know him during his demeaning tenure in London as a junior post office clerk and a postal investigator in famine-stricken Ireland, where he acquired his passion for hunting and for dancing, and where he found his dearest love, Rose. Ireland turned his life around. And soon the novels appeared, slowly bringing him fame and fortune, distinguished friends, and new worlds as he traveled to America, the West Indies, Australia, and South Africa. What gives Victoria Glendinning's book its particular vitality, intimacy, and wit is that she lets Trollope speak for himself.

About this Research Topic
Signal Transduction Kinases are highly conserved and tightly regulated in order to initiate specific transcriptional programs in response to different external cues. While the action of signalling kinases was thought to occur predominantly in the cytoplasm, recent emerging studies have been shown they regulate gene expression by translocating to the nucleus, and stably associating with the promoter and transcribed regions of genes. These chromatin-tethered kinases have been shown to play both a structural role as part of transcription complexes, as well as an enzymatic role by phosphorylating their target proteins. These findings exemplify the dual role of signalling kinases, demonstrating that they have a more general role as regulators of gene transcription in both higher and lower eukaryotic cells, and act by two distinct mechanisms: (1) cytoplasmic signalling to the nucleus, and (2) as novel class of epigenetic enzymes that directly tether and regulate the epigenome. A detailed understanding of these mechanisms of epigenetic regulation is of particular importance since the reversible nature of epigenetic aberrations makes them attractive targets for the clinical use of epigenetic therapies; for instance, inhibitors of histone modifying enzymes have shown promise as cancer therapeutics, and are effective anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs. This research topic will present breakthrough gene specific and genome wide studies on the crosstalk between nuclear signaling kinases and epigenetic regulation in two key biological systems: immune system and cancer Keywords biology. Specifically, this topic will feature pioneering work from leading researchers that have contributed to this field in recent years and will feature: (i) overview chromatin, cancer Signalling kinases, epigenetics, immune system, of epigenetic mechanisms in immune system (using T cells as a model system); (ii) the landmark genome wide studies on chromatin anchored signalling kinases in yeast; (iii) novel insights into contributions of chromatin tethered kinases in epigenetic regulation in immune system and cancer; (iv) Field Specialty Section understanding the roles for the nuclear translocation mechanisms; (v) expand the possibilities of new therapeutic strategies using these new epigenetic enzymes.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.

Chelsea's Cobham training ground was a hive of activity once again on Monday morning as players and staff returned from their holidays to begin preparations for the new season.
Along with first team regulars, such as Gary Cahill, David Luiz, and Willian, a number of familiar faces coming back from loan spells joined Antonio Conte's group. Among them were Lucas Piazon and Andreas Christensen who returned from Fulham and Borussia Monchengladbach respectively.
Willy Caballero was the only new face to join the squad for the first session of pre-season training. The Argentine, who signed on a free from Manchester City earlier this month, met fellow goalkeepers Thibaut Courtois and Eduardo who trained away from the group of 26 outfield players.

Noticeable absentees from the group included the injured Eden Hazard and the club's new signing Antonio Rudiger who has been given extended holiday after representing Germany in the Confederations Cup over the summer.
Another figure missing from the group was Diego Costa who has been granted "an extra few days off", according to the club.
After a brilliant season last term, Conte will be keen to hit the ground running as the Blues look to retain their Premier League title.
Chelsea's first competitive match of the new season will be against North London rivals Arsenal who they play at Wembley in the Community Shield on the 6th August.

New Try to Solve Old Mystery
Privately Funded Effort to Search Near Pacific Atoll for Signs of Earhart's Plane
What became of Amelia Earhart's plane when it disappeared over the Pacific 75 years ago has long intrigued aviation fans. On Tuesday, U.S. government officials and a private historical group announced a new effort to locate the famed aviator's twin-engine Lockheed.
The effort, projected to kick off in July, will be financed with roughly half a million dollars in private funds, according to people familiar with the details. It will focus on a remote Pacific atoll called Nikumaroro, halfway between Hawaii and Australia, near where the plane carrying Ms. Earhart and a companion may have gone down during an attempted around-the-world flight.
A search team will concentrate on the deep waters near Nikumaroro, which was the site of a 2010 search that focused on coral reefs and nearby shallow waters, these people said.
The impetus for the latest expedition is a recently discovered photo, apparently taken near Nikumaroro just months after Ms. Earhart's disappearance. Some experts believe it may show a portion of the plane's landing gear.
State Department officials held a hastily arranged briefing Monday night to describe the photo. After "very intense photo analysis" by government and outside experts, according to one senior official, "the judgment is that it's worth exploring."
The official added that "a very healthy dose of skepticism has to be in play."
The search will be spearheaded again by the International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, which has championed the theory that the renowned female aviator and Fred Noonan, the other crew member on the July 1937 flight, ended up on or near the west coast of the island, formerly called Gardner Island.
Aviation experts aren't unanimous in believing that scenario. Some longtime Earhart theorists are convinced that bad weather caused the plane to run out of fuel and forced a ditching in the ocean. Officials from the private recovery team declined to comment about specifically where they intend to look and who is financing the expedition.
At a event Tuesday in Washington, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton joined scientist to unveil details of the new expedition, which will include small robotic submarines. Ric Gillespie, head of the search group, said "there are some very smart people who think we're wrong about this," but other experts who believe the new search may hit pay dirt.
Since the island is now part of the Republic of Kiribati, State Department officials have helped pave the way for an underwater search.
Officials at the Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum also have been briefed. A museum official on Monday declined to provide details, except to say "we have no formal partnership" with the search but "support any general effort" to unravel the mystery.
Continuing fascination with the crash has spawned numerous Web sites, far-out explanations and various conspiracy theories.
Ms. Earhart's plane was on one leg a record-setting global trip but disappeared before reaching Howland Island, which the U.S. Navy had outfitted with a landing strip, fuel supplies, a radio transmitter and support personnel.
Her final frantic radio transmissions to the crew of a Coast Guard cutter, possibly advising them she and Mr. Noonan were lost, added to the mystery.
Ms. Earhart became world-famous in the early 1930s, when she set numerous aviation records in a bright red Lockheed Vega she called her "little red bus." She became a sensation as the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, as well as nonstop across the U.S.
Searching for Amelia's Plane
When her plane disappeared over the Pacific, the U.S. government spent some $4 million searching an area roughly the size of Texas but found nothing.
The abiding interest in the crash has been fueled partly intriguing but inconclusive results from previous searches. The head of the historic airplane group gained some credibility after searches around Nikumaroro turned up an aluminum panel and a piece of curved glass that might have come from Ms. Earhart's plane. Teams also came upon a heel from a woman's shoe, which some believe resembled Ms. Earhart's footwear.
In 1940, three years after her disappearance, the historic aircraft group's website states, a British official "found a partial skeleton of a castaway on a remote part of the island," along with evidence of a "campfire, animal bones, a box that had once contained a sextant" and remnants of a man's and a woman's shoes. U.S. authorities never were notified so they could test the remains, according to the group.
But some scholars and aviation experts challenge the historic group's assertion that the crew managed to land on Nikumaroro and survive on theuninhabited atoll for some time.
On Monday, State Department officials didn't endorse a particular theory. "It's a hotly contested area," a department official said at the briefing. "We're not making any bets."
Nonetheless, participation by Secretary Clinton and other dignitaries suggests the photo has changed the debate. Along with representatives of the search team, renowned undersea explorer Robert Ballard is expected to express his support for the new effort. Mr. Ballard has spent decades recovering relics and finding wrecks, including the passenger liner Titanic, the German battleship Bismarck and President John F. Kennedy's PT-109 patrol boat.
The State Department said it is "working closely" with Mr. Ballard in what will be a sophisticated sonar search.

Simplicity and complexity through a progressive ordering system
Lee, Kwanhee
Last, Nana
Master of Architecture
Proportion is a way to perceive a whole world as parts, and to change the parts into a system in terms of human thought. As a relationship between form and number, meaning can be eliminated and then, reinvented by human intelligence to interpret the world continuously, but formation of order and disorder always exists by themselves. Therefore the thesis is to research the possibility of how a system, which has its own rule set up initially, makes up its own meaning and form in terms of a proportional concept which is self-referential, growing pattern, and order and disorder through several attempts. To give form to number and number to form, the process in which a unit was set up, and changed, varied with simple permutations several times, and get a number of forms and shapes, then give order and name to make complexity from simplicity and pattern from seeming chaos is done. And in doing so, there are two ways to represent the order in a system: space progression and time progression.

Remploy protest heads to London
Hundreds of workers from Remploy are heading to Westminster to protest against the planned closure of factories.
36 sites, which employ disabled workers, are due to close this summer with compulsory redundancies for more than 1700 staff. Factories in Leeds, Pontefract, Chesterfield and Worksop are among those affected. There are fears the remaining 18 factories would shut soon after.
Staff will be protesting outside the Department for Work and Pensions before marching to the House of Commons.

5 Leinster Woods 1 near Dublin, Ireland, By Brian MacLochlainn: Brian says, "This is my 4th attempt at a video, and I am finding that I am now getting enquiries but mainly from commercial property agents and other commercial uses for this service. It is a fun new market that I am trying to create here as it really is not something that has been done before in Ireland." I'd say this is good work for Brian's 4th video.
Brian also says, "over here video usage on higher end properties is currently almost useless because the primary property listing sites either do not allow video or put the video so low on the actual listing. The video not only is below the photos, it is below the description, room by room measurements, agents details and the location and map. This means not only is it below the fold it is below the fold of the second scroll down."
SHARE this Love Story and if your referral results in a sale at ELEMENT by Scott Wagner, you will be paid a $20,000 referral fee. The buyer will need to use the word ROSE when he or she contacts Scott. Regular readers of This Week In Real Estate Video will recognize this as a PlatinumHD.tv production. Those crispy sharp water droplets on the rose have something to do with the RED Epic camera they use.
How do you use online video to sell real estate? This question has come up many times this week from agents and photographers/videographers I've talked to. The issue that comes up again and again is, "I can't link to video from my MLS!" or "The syndication sites link to tours/video are too hard to find!" or "what good is video if you can't view it from traditional marketing sites?" I'm going to visit this subject more in the weeks to come because I think it is key to the successful use of video in real estate. The PlatinumHD.tv answer is in the opening sequence of this the reel that Brett Clements sent me. The key words are "The combination of online video and social media is atomic! Nothing in the history of advertising can touch it." I can believe this but this means agents have to use video outside their usual marketing channels and promote it via social media.

Those of you who live in Brooklyn may have noticed, over the winter, spring, and summer, signs popping up around subway stations and attached to trash cans with the romantic call to action of "Dating: One Nite Stands Only." In the fine print, along with the phone number to call if interested, there are some notes about what exactly this entails. "Dutch dating," "the library," "bookstore," "window shopping," and "a walk date" are all options. To what end, also, is clarified: "Meaning maybe romance." That's what anyone would expect from a best case scenario date, perhaps. Of course, this posted sign is something of a joke, passed around on Twitter with laughs over who exactly this guy thinks he is (a comedian, maybe?) and whether anyone has actually called (someone did! We have not). But it's an old-school harkening back, however ineffectual, to a time when dating was a little more simple, or, maybe, just not on the computer.
Online dating is now so commonplace that we need scientific research to remind us that, oh yes, it's not that as a form of dating it's any better at helping you find your soulmate (or just a likely companion) than the traditional varieties. It's not as if dating websites have uncovered some magic bullet of love, as much as they may purport to do so; their algorithms are algorithms but they are not perfect. What is true is that, generally, the more people you meet who are looking for a relationship or "maybe romance," the more likely you are to find one of them to your liking, and drum up something mutual. And dating websites make it easier to consider quite a lot of people, so they automate the process and make it more efficient. It's not a matter of science, it's a matter of the statistics. Eventually, if you look long enough and meet enough people, say the people who advise in such matters, it will happen. Right?
But some people, like Mr. Maybe Romance above, are sticking with the old-school methods. For example, Adam Orna, 39, a resident of the Bronx, who hangs out in Union Square Park regularly with his own sign. The New York Times has a cringeworthy-but-maybe-a-little-sweet piece on Orna, a man not unlike any number of people on the verge of 40, thinking again about what they want in life, and feeling like it's someone to share that life with. Having hit up the bar and club scenes and tried his hand at online dating (none of which worked for him), he's written his request on a sign that says, "Please Date Me." It also puts forth his qualifications: "Single, healthy, loyal, straight, marriage-minded, marathon runner, vegetarian." He's got a decently salaried job with benefits and owns a condo. So why does something about this seem so terribly sad? Alex Vadukul writes,
He sometimes wears a nice suit, sleeves rolled up, and hands out roses to women. "Hello beautiful, care for a rose?" is a frequent opening, as is a friendly wave accompanied by his boyish smile. Women tend to ignore his advances, but he is polite and soft-spoken, never handling rejection badly. That resilience is a good thing, for rejection tends to come in bunches.
Perhaps it's because, as daters, we're trained to think that if someone wants something too much, it's yucky, scary, or there must be something wrong with them. Perhaps it's because we're supposed to be so cool, and anything people do publicly, online or off, to show their cards (or strategies) is likely to meet with mockery. No one wants to be a creep, and yet, we're all creepy in our own special ways! Is it creepy to want love? No. Is it creepy to hold a sign saying that you do? Hm.
Maybe, also, it's because urban-dwelling women are trained not to take roses from strangers, or to respond to their comments or requests, because that can too easily go down an uncomfortable road. But in a city in which women are always saying "there are no good men," and with a backdrop upon which we regularly bemoan men as afraid of commitment or Peter Pan syndrome-afflicted, it's rather funny, and maybe not funny ha ha, that a guy who comes right out and says what he wants wouldn't get any serious takers. Of course, at the same time, he's standing on the street holding a sign. Who's going to stop for that? Who's not going to mock it at the same time that we maybe feel a little bit bad for having done so?
In fairness, though, he's really just incorporating the theory of online dating—cast the net wide, say what you want, portray yourself authentically, and don't worry about rejection—in a sort of grassroots man-on-the-street way:
At his post, Mr. Orna dutifully greeted passing women and ignored the occasional pedestrians who laughed at him. "It's like fishing," he said. "Some days you get something. Some days, nothing."
He just wants what everyone else does. Maybe romance. Or, actually, definitely romance: He told Vadukul, "There have been nights I've cried I was so lonely. You've got a good job, good hobbies, but what good is it if there's no one to share it with?" Aw/facepalm. A sign doesn't keep you warm at night, but neither does a computer (toasted leg syndrome notwithstanding). But, yes, someone date this guy and report back, please.
