1. What is the cost of adopting?
The final cost of adoption can vary, depending on several different factors. To view the fees associated with each step of the Spirit of Faith Adoptions process and to read about funding resources for prospective adoptive parents, please click here.
2. Why do some adoptions cost more than others?
Different types of adoption have different cost structures. Public adoption, adopting children out of the foster care system, has minimal cost for the adoptive parents, as most of the costs are covered through funding provided to the County Children's Services agencies. Private domestic adoption and international adoption are funded by fees paid by the adoptive parents. Spirit of Faith Adoptions is a private, non-profit adoption agency that is funded via fees paid by adoptive parents.
3. How many adoptive placements does your agency successfully complete in a given year?
Spirit of Faith Adoptions has historically averaged one infant placement per month. The demand for our birth parent services fluctuates greatly and can be unpredictable. However, every person who requests our adoption coordination services receives one on one time and attention. Ultimately, it is the birth parent(s) choice to complete the adoption planning process or to parent their child themselves.
4. Why should I select Spirit of Faith Adoptions as my adoption agency?
Spirit of Faith Adoptions is dedicated to personal attention and care for all involved in every single adoption. Spirit of Faith's Director and founder is an adoptive parent and has been involved in the adoption field for many years. There are many excellent adoption agencies but Spirit of Faith Adoptions is committed to serving its clients in a Christian manner that demonstrates that their adoption is a very personal and intimate experience that has been prayed over and blessed by God. Spirit of Faith Adoptions staff prays for God's guidance and leading every day.
5. How long does it take to adopt?
No adoption agency can guarantee how long it will take to adopt, and any particular adoption can encounter obstacles. Spirit of Faith Adoptions works closely with applicants to complete the home study and accompanying paperwork as efficiently as possible, usually within 30-120 days from the time of application. Once the home study is completed, the time frame for a domestic adoptive placement can vary from a few months to up to 1-2 years. The reason for this is that the birth parents select the prospective adoptive parents themselves by reviewing profile books. Birth parents may have specific things that they are looking for and those qualities vary from one to the next. For those reasons, when a birth parent selects a family and requests to be matched with them for a possible adoptive placement, the agency facilitates that process at the request of the birth parents who chose the family.
6. How many families are waiting for adoptive placements at any given time?
Because birth parents typically select the prospective adoptive parents for their child, we prefer to have a variety of family profiles to present to each birth parent. With that being said, Spirit of Faith Adoptions reviews our domestic infant programming needs regularly and strives to meet the anticipated needs of birth parents by increasing or limiting the number of families that are accepted into the program.
7. What is a home study, and do I need one?
A home study is an assessment of a prospective parents' ability to provide a secure, safe and loving home for a child and it must be conducted by a licensed social worker or professional counselor that has completed state mandated adoption assessor training. All adoptions in Ohio must be preceded by a home study. Spirit of Faith Adoptions is licensed in Ohio by the Department of Job and Family SErvices to provide domestic home study services in the state of Ohio.
8. Am I eligible to adopt in Ohio?
For a domestic adoption, there are few restrictions, provided that a valid home study has been approved. Spirit of Faith Adoptions is a Christian agency in Ohio and believes that children should be raised in homes where God's principles regarding family relationships are promoted.
9. What funding resources are available to prospective adoptive parents?
There are significant adoption tax benefits and deductions available to most adoptive families. Please consult your tax advisor or www.irs.gov (keyword search: adoption tax credit). Many churches are establishing adoption funds as well. Click here for information about financial resources.
10. What type of support is offered to birth parents?
Birth parents who contact Spirit of Faith Adoptions are provided with personalized, one-on-one care and support throughout the pregnancy and beyond. Each birth parent is assigned to a birth parent coordinator. Click here to see one of our staff discuss her role as a coordinator. The coordinator ensures that the birth parent understands the process, helps provide transportation to medical appointments as needed, is there to introduce them to the adoptive parents, and is present at the hospital during the 72 hours prior to the adoptive placement. The coordinator is the birth parent's advocate and supports the birth parent as requested, throughout the pregnancy, no matter what the birth parent ultimately chooses. The coordinator also encourages the birth parent to utilize professional counseling services as needed.

Passengers scream in horror as bus plunges in Philippines, killing 29
The driver repeatedly stepped on the apparently malfunctioning brakes before plunging into a deep ravine in the northern Philippines, leaving at least 29 people dead.
Published: 18th April 2017 10:29 PM | Last Updated: 18th April 2017 10:29 PM | A+A A-
MANILA: Bus passengers were screaming in horror as the driver repeatedly stepped on the apparently malfunctioning brakes before plunging into a deep ravine in the northern Philippines, leaving at least 29 people dead today in one of the country's deadliest accidents in years, a survivor and officials said.
The rest of the more than 50 passengers were retrieved by rescuers who struggled with ropes to descend down the 24-meter deep ravine to reach the wreckage in Nueva Ecija province's Carranglan town, said disaster-response officer Mark Raymond Cano.
Many of the passengers were hospitalised with serious injuries and parents separated from their children in the confusion, officials said. "One child here sat beside her mother. The mother was dead," said Dr Napoleon Obana of the Veterans Regional Hospital, where some of the victims were taken. TV footage showed a line of rescuers and villagers, some holding on to a rope to climb up on a grassy slope with a victim on a stretcher.
A throng of villagers waited in a clearing above them to help pull the victim to safety. Cano said a preliminary investigation showed that the bus "lost its brakes and plunged down the ravine." Passenger Ralph Raymond Grajo said he saw the driver repeatedly stepping on the malfunctioning brakes as the wayward bus was speeding along a downhill road.
The driver attempted to steer the bus to the right, but roadside houses made him veer back in the direction of the ravine as horrified passengers watched, Grajo said. "All the passengers were screaming and somebody in front me told everybody 'Don't panic,' but many were already gripped by panic," Grajo told DZMM radio network.
Grajo apparently fell off the bus as it rolled down the ravine and regained consciousness away from the wreckage with injuries to his feet and arms. He said he was among the first to be rescued and brought to a hospital. It wasn't immediately clear if the driver survived. The spot along the road is accident-prone.
Today's accident was the sixth in the area in recent years, a local village official told DZMM. The impact from the plunge ripped the bus, which could no longer be distinguished at the bottom of the ravine, said Nueva Ecija's police chief Antonio Yarra. He said investigators could not yet talk to the stunned and injured survivors.
Carranglan police chief Robert de Guzman said the bus from northern Isabela province was on its way to Ilocos Sur, a tobacco- and rice-growing region also in the mountainous northern Philippines, when it crashed shortly before noon in Nueva Ecija, about 200 kilometers north of Manila.
Poorly maintained passenger buses, inadequate road safety features and weak enforcement of local transport laws have been blamed for many vehicular accidents in the Philippines.
In February, a sightseeing bus carrying college students on a camping trip lost its brakes as it sped down a steep downhill road before smashing into a concrete electrical post in Tanay town in Rizal province east of Manila, killing 15 people.

First therapeutic study of LSD in 35 years finishes treatment of last subject• Eric W. Dolan via RawStory.com
Psychiatrists in Switzerland have nearly completed their study of LSD-assisted psychotherapy in the treatment of anxiety associated with life threatening illnesses.
The study is the first of its kind to be undertaken in 35 years. Although most people associate the psychedelic drug LSD with the hippie counterculture of the 1960's, psychiatrists had been studying the use of LSD as an aid to psychological therapy before it was federally banned in the United States in 1968.
Peter Gasser, M.D., a psychiatrist and lead investigator of the study, said in a letter (PDF) to friends and colleagues that "all the 12 participants reported a benefit from the treatment." The study was begun in 2007 after being approved by Swiss legal authorities and the final LSD-assisted psychotherapy session was completed on May 26.
"I am proud to say that we had in 30 sessions (22 with full dose 200 μg LSD and 8 with placebo dose 20 μg LSD) no severe side effects such as psychotic experiences or suicidal crisis or flashbacks or severe anxieties (bad trips)," Gasser wrote in his letter. "That means that we can show that LSD treatment can be safe when it is done in a carefully controlled clinical setting."
Participants reactions to the LSD-assisted psychotherapy ranged from feeling that they were more aware of what was important and meaningful in life to being more relaxed toward everything that happened to them. Only two of the 12 participants had previously taken LSD.
Gasser said he expects to have a scientific paper ready for publishing at the end of this year or next Spring, but worries that his study will not be statistically significant - meaning he wouldn't be able to claim the results were not due to chance or factors other than the LSD therapy.
"The number of participants was small and therefore life events that were not LSD treatment related, such as worsening of the disease, having a diagnosis of metastasis or being under treatment with chemotherapy, etc. had a strong influence on the results," he explained.

The aim of this Delphi study was to inform organisational decision-making and policy development regarding future research priorities for a hospice service in New Zealand. Using a modified three-round Delphi technique, participants (patients, family carers, volunteers and palliative care staff) identified research themes (staff and volunteers identified symptom management; aged care; education; community; patient and family; and bereavement support and young people. Patients and family carers identified four themes: decision-making, bereavement and loss, symptom management; and recognition of need and response of service). The authors discuss the significance of these findings.

Confused about your exam or college applications?
Be the First to Know
Get Access to Latest Updates
Undergraduate examinations of Lucknow University kick started from March 1, 2016 onwards. According to examination Controller SK Shukla, the university was taking all possible steps to ensure that no copying took place in examinations. He said that there are total 52 centres had been set up and more than 25,000 candidates would be appearing for the examination on the first day for the Sociology examinations.
The students will not be allowed to carry mobile phones or calculators and any student who is found in possession of these things will be charged with the use of unfair means. There will be flying squads which will check the centres.
The examination Controller told that they had sought the help of the district administration for imposing Section 144 CrPC outside the various centres and deploy adequate force so that peace and order was maintained. He said that last year the VC himself had visited the centres and there was no case of copying.
The examinations will be held in two sessions, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon.

Like many other rumors in line, Apple iPhone 5S has been in talks since long. Expected to roll out in this year, we hear that this next-gen smartphone by Apple might come out with 4G LTE-Advanced support.
SK Telecom, a South Korean firm, is believed to be in the middle of negotiations with the Cupertino Calif.-based company to launch the upcoming iPhone 5S with LTE-A technology.
The upcoming iPhone 5S, speculated to be out this September will have 4G LTE-A speed if rumors turn out to be true.
Apple is trying to steer the benefits on the iPhone 5S, giving the device download power with double the speed than its predecessor.
Walking on the similar lines, Samsung also recently unveiled its LTE-Advanced Galaxy S4 officially last week. This news followed SK Telecom's announcement of launching world's first 4G LTE-Advanced network in South Korea.
Coming as good news for those in South Korea, it seems UK and other countries will have to wait to run LTE-Advanced to gain from this network with greater speed and power.
Considering both the arch rivals in the mobile world; Apple and Samsung, if the former also launches its iPhone 5S with super-speed, it seems LTE-Advanced network will soon make its way all over the globe.

The countdown is finally over as the 9th IRB Rugby World Cup kicks-off at Twickenham on Friday night, with hosts England taking on the unpredictable attacking flair of Fiji. Over the next 61 days, 20 teams will play 48 matches in 13 venues, all fighting for the right to claim the crown of Rugby World Champions at Twickenham on Saturday October 31st.
The Teams
It's one big rugby party and everyone is going to be there. Reigning champions New Zealand will be most people's short odds favourites to claim their third world crown, and the All Blacks remain the big draw in the oval ball game. Hot on their heels will be Southern Hemisphere rivals Australia and South Africa, both serious challengers on their day, and both double world champions of the past. Argentina will also be looking to turn up to the party to relive some of the glory moments they have had in the past, most notably their third place finish in 2007. European rugby will be represented by hosts England, as well as 6-Nations big guns France, Ireland and Wales. Scotland have been improving of late and will be looking to improve on their best finals performance – a semi-final back in 1991. Italy will also be looking to cause a shock or two on the way. Alongside the more established sides will be the exciting Pacific Island nations and World Cup regulars Samoa, Fiji and Tonga, all capable of producing enthrallingif not always winning rugby. Then there's the ever-improving nations of Japan, USA and Canada – again all World Cup regulars with developing games that may just scare the big boys on an off-day. With Uruguay, Georgia, Romania, Uruguay and Namibia completing the set, this promises to be the most competitive event ever, with some of the big group-stage scores of the past perhaps replaced by closer, more competitive games. With all the information of who to back and when, follow the world's best rugby tipsters at Betadvisor.com.
The Pools
With the top 2 teams in each of the 4 pools qualifying automatically for the quarter-finals, at least two of the four pool look relatively easy to call. In Pool C, New Zealand and Argentina look nailed on to finish first and second, with Tonga waiting in the wings to capitalise on any slip ups from the South Americans in particular. Similarly, in Pool D, France and Ireland will be battling it out to progress as pool winners, with Italy looking the most realistic threat. Pool B is rather more intriguing. South Africa look odds-on favourite to qualify as pool winners, with Scotland favourites to join them. However, the Scots' game against Samoa could be one to watch, as the Pacific Islanders certainly offer a real danger. Undoubtedly the real drama awaits in Pool A where England, Australia and Wales have been drawn together in what has inevitably been dubbed 'The Group of Death.' One of these big guns will fail to make the last-8, so match-ups between the three will be particularly vital and compelling viewing. To see what the top rugby tipsters think, visit Betadvisor.com
The Players
It's the Oscars of rugby with every star name in attendance. Whether you love a silky smooth fly-half in the shape of New Zealand's Dan Carter or Ireland's Jonny Sexton, or are more a fan of the grizzled old veteran like the All Blacks' Richie McCaw, Italy's Sergio Parisse or Ireland's Paul O'Connell, this tournament has it all.
If you are more of a fan of rampaging back rows, what about England's Billy Vunipola, American SamuManoa or Australia's David Pocock? If it's speed that gets you going, Wales have the rapid pace of wing George North, France the quick-fire turn of foot of Wesley Fofana, Argentina the lightning wing or full-back play of Juan Imhoff , Scotland the elusiveness of Stuart Hogg, and Australia the all –round freakish athleticism of Israel Folau.
Add world players of the year from both 2014 and 2013, Brodie Retallick and Kieran Read respectively, to the mix, along with established superstars of the world game Bryan Habana, Thierry Dusautoir, Matt Giteau and Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe, among others, and it really is a who's who of rugby celebrity.
Of course, this being a world cup, we have the privileged of checking out some of the stas of the smaller rugby nations too – Fijian NemaniNadolo, the USA's TakudzwaNgwenya and Samoa's Tim Nanai-Williams could all impress with their combinations of speed, power and no insignificant technique.

Course Summary
Are you interested in learning about using multi-channel phased array radar systems through hands-on construction and experiment?
MIT Professional Education is offering a unique course in the design, fabrication, and testing of a laptop-based phased array radar sensor capable of ground moving target imaging (GMTI) using analog and digital beamforming, along with applications of tracker principles on the acquired images.
Lectures will be presented on the topics of applied electromagnetics, antennas, RF design, analog circuits, phased array radar calibration, and digital signal processing, while at the same time you build your own radar channel and perform field experiments both individually and as a group. Each student will receive a single channel radar kit designed by MIT Lincoln Laboratory staff and a course pack. The group experiments will utilize these kits to populate a shared phased array asset and explore beamforming and calibration.
This course will appeal to those who want to learn array-based radar systems engineering, analog and digital beamforming, or tracking; use radar technology in a product or experiment; or make components or sub-systems.
You do not have to be a radar engineer but it helps if you have at least a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or physics and are interested in any of the following: electronics, electromagnetics, signal processing, physics, or amateur radio. It is recommended that you have some familiarity with MATLAB. Each student is required to bring a laptop with MATLAB installed. Primary support for the provided software will be for MATLAB version 2009a or newer and the Microsoft Windows operating system. Instructors will make every effort to support other configurations.
During the course you will bring your radar kit into the field and perform range time intensity (RTI) and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) experiments. There will then be group experiments using multiple radar units as receive channels for a digital phased array. These experiments will include topics of array calibration and analog and digital beamforming while collecting GMTI images of an urban target scene. Additionally, development of algorithms for tracking multiple targets in the RTI and GMTI images will be undertaken.
Each student will receive a single channel radar kit designed by MIT Lincoln Laboratory staff and a course pack.

Participants' Comments
Senior principal se, raytheon systems
"There are no other courses like this where you get both theory and hands-on experience building and testing a radar. This type of practical experience is very important in developing the next generation of radar design engineers."
technical staff, mit lincoln laboratory
"The course provided students with a rare opportunity to work with and understand a complete system. It was well organized, well executed, and the material was very accessible. We were able to begin experimenting with individual radar systems immediately. The link between the presented theory and the experiments was very clear. Given the complexity of a radar (even a basic one), this is quite impressive."
chief scientist, tidalscale
"An efficient introduction to practical aspects of microwave radar, with demonstrations and hands-on experimentation."

created a very rough and sketchy train rig with Maya. This is just a test and the train behaviour is far from realistic.
Also the scaling isnt correct and the speed of the train isnt correct either, especially in curves. But then it was just for fun and a test. Nothing else.
Its more of a rollercoaster ride to be honest. :D

Digital radiography is the latest technology used to take dental x-rays. Our office uses an DEXIS electronic sensor in place of x-ray film, that captures and stores the digital image on a computer. This image can be instantly viewed and enlarged helping us detect problems easier. Digital x-rays reduce radiation by 80 to 90%, compared to the already low exposure of traditional dental x-rays. The system is even environmentally friendly - eliminating the use of chemicals to process film!
A full mouth series of x-rays is recommended for new patients. This series is usually good for three to five years. Bite-wing x-rays
(x-rays of top and bottom teeth biting together) are taken yearly to detect new potential
dental problems.
Dental x-rays may reveal:
Detecting and treating dental problems at an early stage may save you time, money, unnecessary discomfort, and most of all - your teeth!
"I've never had dental problems, just gone for my regular checkups. After going through a lot of reviews online, I settled on Dr. Ritter based on an overall good rating. And I was not disappointed! His office staff is always friendly, patient and very efficient. I had a good impression of the office from the very beginning. My hygienist was friendly and answered all of my questions. There was no waiting time. She did my cleaning, took x-rays and was very easy to talk to and made me feel quite comfortable. Dr. Ritter was warm and friendly as well. Again, he addressed all my concerns patiently and thoroughly, and I did not feel rushed at all. Overall it was a great experience in a very warm, friendly atmosphere."
"Dr. Ritter has been my family's dentist now since I was a young teen. I've since grown up and had my own children, and he's still our family dentist. His is down to earth and makes you feel like you are visiting a friend instead of going to a dentist's office. His prices are comparable to other dentists in the area. I love that he has his own website so you can see the office before you visit. It's a great way to prepare the younger children. Dr. Ritter is great with my kids. He makes sure before he puts on a mask or any other equipment that he meets them and doesn't scare them."

Walkers Cay Fishing
Although the Walkers Cay, Bahamas Resort & Marina closed down in 2004 due to the hurricanes Frances & Jeanne, the Sport Fishing, Diving and Spearfishing continue to be better than ever. Somewhat off the beaten path from those on their way to the Abacos, Walkers has always been a favorite fishing destination for anglers worldwide.
Walkers Cay Fishing has it all, marlin, tuna, wahoo, mahi, grouper, mutton snapper yellowtail & hogfish are all plentiful in this area of the Northern Bahamas.
Grand Cay is the now a great place to base out of. You can get accomodations, gas, diesel, incredible cracked conch at Rosies and some of the best Bahamian bread in all the islands at "Iris and Daughters" Bakery behind the fish house. The customs office on Walkers Cay remains open, and airstrip still stays active to service the needs of Grand Cay.

Who I am
God asked Ezekiel, "Can these bones live?"
I read the writings of the early Friends and asked God, "Can't these old bones live?"
Ezekiel's valley filled with living beings.
God told me, "Not their bones, but yours must live today."
God told Ezekiel, "The people shall know I am God when they are brought forth from their grave."
"The day is coming and now is," said Jesus, "when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son. And those who will hear shall come forth from their grave."

Social Media Listening / Monitoring -
Social media listening/monitoring, is the process of identifying and assessing what is being said about a company, product or brand on the Internet.
Conversations on the Internet produce massive amounts of unstructured data. Depending on the goal, the right tool might be a series of free Google Alerts or an expensive software suite that includes analysis and full integration with legacy CRM applications.
Social media listening is quickly becoming an important customer intelligence tool. There are several ways to use social media to gain insight, including monitoring online customer support forums, using software tools to gather comments from social outlets such as Facebook and Twitter and encouraging customers to suggest new product features and vote on their favorites.
Social media monitoring tools can mine text for specific keywords on social networking websites and blogs and in discussion forums and other social media.

Plenty of intrigue in Muscat's keeper call
MELBOURNE Victory coach Kevin Muscat has a big selection call to make on his goalkeepers for Saturday's mega clash away to A-League leaders Perth Glory.
Lawrence Thomas, Victory's No.1 keeper since 2016 and on the Socceroos' standby list for the Asian Cup, was dropped for the Melbourne side's last game.
Back-up Matt Acton took over between the posts in the 2-1 win against Brisbane Roar. After the game, Muscat was cagey but hinted Thomas needed to improve if he was to win back his place.
With five rounds left before the finals, Victory is 10 points adrift of Tony Popovic's Glory, but it is eyeing off Sydney FC, just a point ahead in second spot.
Marquee superstar Keisuke Honda and Olyroos defender Tommy Deng are set to meet the team in Perth on Friday. Both have been involved in initial Asian qualifying in Cambodia for the Tokyo 2020 Games - Honda as coach of Cambodia.
While Honda is expected to start and Deng will be assessed by the high performance team, Thomas's status will be of most intrigue for the Saturday night's blockbuster.
Asked after the Roar game if the goalkeeper's spot was now Acton's to lose, Muscat said: "Yeah well, it's like anybody. Carl Valeri's got to fight for his place, Terry Antonis, Elvis (Kamsoba) have got to fight for their place.
"We need better from Lawrence, so he's got to fight for his place also.
"I selected Matt Acton. It's more about selecting Matt Acton, than dropping Lawrence."
Captain Carl Valeri is likely to start after two substitute appearances following a hamstring injury.
An intensive few days of training at Gosch's Paddock offset the week off for the FIFA international break, and Valeri said he was itching to go, having not started since the win over Central Coast on February 2.
"The break did refresh me," Valeri said. "We've got a big finish to the season. First game against Perth, what better way to start? Perth's consistency (is its strong point). We've also found our consistency, despite the rough patch the last month.
"If it was anyone else I would be worried (about rejoining the team late), but Keisuke's just a machine, he's a beast. I know he's away, probably working harder than us.
"So we're totally serene and relaxed because we know his professionalism and work ethic is amazing, and he'll be fully prepared. His hunger to win is amazing and you can see that with everything that he does."

Chaska guided by faith-filled parks and rec director
Tom Redman
How do you apply your faith and Catholic values at work?
It starts with a philosophy of building on the positive. It is easy to apply one's faith and values in most workplaces in that faith and values are centered on helping others. I have been blessed to have been given a position that I have worked in for 38 years that allows me to practice in those many areas where people of all ages can benefit from everything from food shelves to hockey rinks.
Some examples:
Project Community Connect is a Carver County and Scott County joint effort where over 400 individuals come to one place to have their needs met. Services on this day include dental, legal, haircuts and housing, to name only a few. Our faith and values at the CCC led us in part to offer the building at no charge on Aug. 8 for this two-county event.
Another example where I apply my faith at work would be to consciously pursue those aspects that present themselves as Christian in nature such as our department's involvement in creating the local food shelf. It is an example of community building, but it also is an example of not only professing your Christian beliefs, but actually putting that belief into practice to help others. Today we serve over 1,000 individuals in need each month.
We incorporated the spiritual aspect as one part of keeping our Active Older Adults population healthy and happy. The spiritual is complemented by the physical, social, emotional and vocational. We will oftentimes at work make the connection between the Chaska community values of integrity, generosity, respect, responsibility and human worth and dignity and those found in the Catholic faith, which are very similar. As a city staff, we are encouraged to follow the servant leadership management style.
Much of our success as a department is predicated on letting all of our staff know that they are an important part of what we do. If one can trust and delegate to others and find as much enjoyment in seeing their successes as your own, you have found the true value of servant leadership.
Please tell a story about a time when applying your faith at work really made a difference.
We had an artist show in our art gallery by Ashley Dull. In each one of her paintings, she will hide a verse from the Bible by name and number. The trick is to look at the painting long enough until you can find the inscription, such as Jeremiah 29:11.
At The Lodge [which serves the AOA population] since opening, we have had a number of our elderly friends pass away who have made donations back to the building. As we got together and talked as a staff, we thought it would be a good idea to purchase a painting from Ashley called "Future Path" and have her gently hide the names of our friends into the painting as a way of remembering and memorializing them.
As you can imagine, the family members that come to The Lodge to see the artwork are brought to tears knowing that the painting recognizes the passing of their family member as well as a Bible verse.
Who or what has been most inspirational to you in bringing your faith to the marketplace?
For me, it has a been a gradual growth in my belief and education since childhood. My Irish Catholic mother, who passed away, is an important part of who I am today. The point where I actually turned the corner and understood that there was more to being Catholic than going to church regularly and where my faith was given a nudge was probably meeting Father Paul Jarvis [former pastor of Guardian Angels]. I guess I finally understood what it meant to "live your faith" and to "not be afraid" from listening to him. As with everyone, I had heard it all before but never truly understood what it meant.
What achievement at work are you most proud of?
I have been blessed to work for a city and a department where you are allowed to be proactive and to do that which you feel will help make a better community.
I am very fortunate that I can get involved in many good things through my job. From a Christian standpoint, some of us talk about each program being a "drip in the spiritual bucket" and if there are enough good things happening, you overflow the bucket. The fun part is keeping the bucket full.
If I picked one thing I am most proud of at work, it would be the staff, which includes 19 full-time and over 200 part-time [employees]. The CCC would be a hollow shell if it weren't for the full-time and part-time staff that works here every day.
The CCC stands as a model from both a programming and business standpoint. I am convinced that much of its success is based on a servant leadership model where you build from the bottom up, and that all staff are encouraged to feel good about their role and the trust that you put in them.
I am also proud of the AOAs for Christ that we formed as a Guardian Angels ministry. We meet quarterly in The Lodge and identify volunteer projects. The wonderful part of this is that we have 12 churches represented at the meetings and that everyone is willing to share their time and talent for the benefit of those who are in need.
In what specific ways have you experienced God's presence in your workplace?
He is here every day! God's presence is a part of all that we do here at the CCC. The constant interaction of preschoolers, teens, families and AOAs being kind and respecting each other is proof of God's presence each and every day.
Some of us kiddingly call reminders "God Denozos," which is the slight slap behind the head you see on the TV show "NCIS." You just have to be willing and able to recognize God's hand in all the good things that happen on a regular basis, both in our community center and elsewhere, in a typical day.

A surge of international money flowed into Panama in the first quarter, creating a 32.2 percent increase in foreign direct investment compared to the same quarter of 2014, new data shows.
Foreign direct investment reached $1.7 billion in the quarter, led by increases in investments in hotels, real estate, banking and other sectors, according to the National Institute of Statistics and Census. The investor confidence stems from Panama's continued economic growth and the high returns from projects underway around the city, the Economy and Finance Ministry said in a statement.
In Punta Pacifica, we can certainly confirm the trend. Over the last six months we have seen a surge in international interest in waterfront condos. That confidence is real. As international investors review markets around the world, they are responding to the stability and investment powering Panama's real estate market. (Read more about the market trends here.)
According to the data, 65 percent of the FDI comes from the reinvestment of profits, suggesting that foreign investors are keeping their money in Panama.
"Panama offers favorable conditions for the reinvestment of foreign investors' profits, and the volume of additional investments is a solid vote of confidence on the business climate and Panamanian institutions," the ministry's director for social and economic analysis Rogelio Alvarado told reporters.
In the last three years, foreign individuals and companies have invested $11.21 billion into Panama, the Ministry says.

Hi everyone! Sharing a spring look with you today. Inspired by the Ferragamo Buckle collection, I wanted to create a color story that highlights soft tones and accentuates light textures. Keeping the focus on beige hues, I paired a linen vest with beige accessories. With such a clean base palette, I love adding hints of color that bring out the feeling of spring. Sky blue colors and dashes of red will do!
Loving the red accent! Such a beautiful pop of color against the beige and gold.
Thank you so much for reading! And thank you to Ferragamo for partnering on this post!

NBA Rankings Midseason blowout
Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
-P. J. O'Rourke
Did you miss me? I missed you too. We've been busy in the lab for the past few weeks. Some of what we came up with you've seen (The MVP Equation), some of it you should have seen (team charts via the NBA Geek) and some of it you won't be seeing quite yet (Hint: March is around the corner).
The important bit is that we've hit the halfway point of the season. In view of that, I'm blowing it out and giving you all the numbers and tables you can handle.
Let's start with everyone's point margin adjusted for homecourt advantage and opponent.
You'll note that the table has a running total by time period (season, last 30, last 25, last 20, last 15, last 10, last 5, and last 2). This is meant to showcase the ebbs and flows of each team as the season goes along. It does however get more informative if I:
- Turn it into a win % using my own special formula.
- Color code for also rans (<44 wins), playoff teams (44-51 wins), contenders (52 -59 wins) and Champ Level teams (>60 wins).
The Top three teams in the West continue to be the Spurs, Clippers and Thunder. However, the continued absence of Chris Paul with a mystery knee ailment could completely swing the balance of power.
Miami seems to be through playing with fools and is laying down some wood out East. They're currently playing their best ball of the season.
New York had been on a skid but something interesting happened. Amare seems to have come to life out in New York.
Houston and Denver are also playing top tier ball as well out West. Those West playoffs are going to be crazy.
Let's take this to the next level. Let's talk rankings.
Schedule strength as always, comes first:
The Hornets, Rockets, and Warriors have faced the roughest schedule (all out West for some reason). The Bulls, Pistons, Hawks and Pacers have faced the easiest schedule (all out East for some reason).
How's it look for the rest of the season?
Again, I did simulate every game for the rest of the season to do that table. You may notice that I added what the delta is for schedule strength in win percentage before and after.
- The Hornets can't catch a break and stay with the toughest schedule. Portland and the Kings also see a significant increase in difficulty.
- Denver and Utah continue to see a significant softening of their schedule. The Pacers, Hawks and Pistons get some help from the league office as well (and the Raptors in the Pistons case).
Let's talk rankings.
The Rankings as of 1/30/13
The game data is courtesy of Basketball Reference.
The rankings are built by working out the following numbers:
- Point Margin per Game: (Pts scored by team) – (Pts scored by opponent) / games played
- Home court Point Margin per Game: Point Margin per game due to the schedule and homecourt advantage.
- Adjusted Point Margin per Game: (Point Margin per Game) – (Home court Point Margin per Game). Schedule independent point margin (neutral site at sea level)
- Adjusted Opponent Point Margin: The average Point Margin per Game of a teams opponents.
- Real Point Margin (RPM): (Point Margin per Game) – (Home court Point Margin per Game) + (Adjusted Opponent Point Margin). Expected Point Margin at a neutral site against perfectly average opposition. This is the Number I use to rank. Please note that I added the RPM for the last ten games to give me a more real time weighed estimate.
- Neutral Site Win % : A win projection using the real point margin and the relationship between point margin and win% (RPM/31 + .500 is a quick shorthand but not quite right, we gotta have some secrets)
As always, keep in mind that this is a guess (buyer beware) at the relative strengths of teams based on the data of the season to date with some weighing put in for more recent games. A more accurate projection would account for injuries and incorporate what we know of player historical performance. We will address this in a, say it with me, future post before the playoffs.
And for the League:
Ladies and gentlemen, we have movement at the top! Let's do some notes:
- While the West is still very, very strong with 3 of the 4 top teams in the league in a dead heat, Miami has come back to form and moved back into that top contender tier. If I had to guess, San Antonio gets the top seed out West but it's all coming down to health and luck in the end.
- Those Rockets continue to make some real noise in the pack out west. Their youth and their improvement as the season goes along is going to continue to bear watching.
- Chicago is lurking (two words : Jimmy Butler) and so is Derrick Rose. Let's keep an eye out shall we? The possible Stat Revival in New York also bears watching. Bulls/Knicks in Round 2? Seems inevitable.
- The rest of the East so far is horrid. The records are more than a bit inflated. What is intriguing is the possible turnaround of a few teams via trade (Pistons) or return from injury (Sixers, Wizards) while others collapse to the lottery (Raptors and, it kills me to type this, Celtics). I actually think the Pistons are the best bet to improve dramatically in the second half, particularly if Drummond can overcome his tragic case of drafted-too-low-itis and stay on the court.
- There is still the possibility of one or more crazy trade out there. In fact let me make it easy for you Danny.
- The Lakers are sitting at 9th overall and seventh in the West. They needed Minnesota, Utah and Portland to falter. Minnesota is most likely the victim of Eduardo the injury fairy taking a transfer from Portland. Portland is about to be victimized by the league office. Utah just got clowned by the Rockets. Throw in some significant economic incentives and I feel the Lakers are almost a dead lock to get the eight seed.
Let's show you the full season simulation now. You'll note that I did the sim based on the full season, the last ten games and the average of the two.
And as always that brings us to current projections sorted as minimum, average and maximum projected wins. The table also shows the numbers from the preseason projection and whether that number was low, high or in range based on the current status of the league.
18 of the 30 projections are in line with the preseason numbers. For the lows, we have Chicago (who seem to have found a real gem in Butler), Indiana (Stephenson is a surprise), Brooklyn (Brook Lopez learning how to rebound), Detroit (and Drummond overcoming CWPMS — Coach Won't Play Me Syndrome), the West top three (and the continued underestimated level of suck in the East), and Golden State (David Lee with the two year recovery from zombification). As for the highs, we have Philly (Bynum and the Bowling hijinks), Minnesota and New Orleans featured in injurypalooza 2012-13 as for Toronto? Well, get to know Bryan Colangelo.
As noted earlier, the Lakers are lurking around that last spot in the West and need some real luck to make it in. If it were any other team, I wouldn't like their odds. I just don't think the Angel of Stern is going to Kobe take an early vacation at this point.
Playoff odds anyone?
Before the season, I picked San Antonio over Miami in the finals. I see no reason to change my mind.
P.S. Again as a bonus, Here's a table presented without explanation or context:
