May 2017
May 26, 2017: The week started with a bang when news leaked that Ford CEO Mark Fields had suddenly retired. Only he hadn't. Ford used the doublespeak to hide the fact that it had replaced Fields with former Steelcase CEO Jim Hackett. The question was why. We take a look behind the screen to see what forces pushed Fields out, and what's really troubling the Ford Motor Company. Another loud noise came when Dodge announced pricing for its limited production Challenger SRT Demon. It's not cheap at nearly $90,000, but some of the options are very reasonably priced. Like $1 for a package that unlocks all 840 horsepower, and makes the demon ready for the strip. The third loud sound was the other shoe dropping when Chinese automaker Geely bought a stake in Proton, and took control of Lotus. The move removes the British sports car builder and engineering house from Malaysian control, and puts it in the hands of the company that has done so much with Volvo. Very little sound, on the other hand, was made by the 2017 smart fortwo. That's because it has ditched its gasoline powerplant in the U.S., making electric drive the only powertrain available. And, to top it off, the price is lower, too. VW, meanwhile, showed a new generation of its EA888 four-cylinder engine. This time the company increased displacement and power, decreased fuel consumption, and added a modified Miller Cycle for good measure. It debuts in the 2018 Tiguan. At the other end of the performance spectrum, TVD friend and contributor Jim Meachen spent a week with Audi's new R8. He also left the neighbor's son nearly speechless. After looking at the four-ringed supercar, we can understand why. Finally, Aston Martin and New England Patriots quarterback have joined forces in a long-term marketing agreement. Personally, we'd have chosen his wife, Giselle Bundchen.
May 12, 2017: The soap opera that is Lotus has a new chapter. Only this time the drama isn't taking place in England. It's happening in Ann Arbor, Michigan, home to Lotus Engineering, Inc. (LEI) and the new home of Lotus Cars USA. Despite emphatic denials from Group Lotus, insiders report that massive layoffs have taken place, contracts cancelled, and the dynamometer lab closed. Plus, competitors anonymously confirm having recently toured the facility to assess its potential. It's all part of the history and mystery we examine as we try to determine what the future may hold for Lotus in the U.S. Next up is a continuation racer outfitted for road work, the Lister Knobbly. Just 10 of these Jaguar-engined copies will be built under England's limited-volume Individual Vehicle Approval system, though the brutal late 1950s era racer promises to put a big smile on each owner's face. The same could be said of the Land Cruiser built by engineers from Toyota's Motorsport Technical Center Dubbed the "Land Speed Cruiser," this twin-turbo V8-powered SUV pumps out 2,000 horsepower, and is capable of more than 230 mph. "Oh what a feeling," indeed. Finally we give our quick impressions of three Toyota's, a Nissan and a Mazda. Though each has been covered in the past, we catch up with the current editions of the Toyota Highlander, Corolla and Camry; Nissan Altima; and Mazda3 to see what, if anything, has changed, and if our first impressions stand up to our most recent.

By Evan Gowan (originally posted 2nd February 2012)
The BBC reports on a new paper from Miller et al. (2012), which gives
evidence that the Little Ice Age cooling event may have been triggered
by a series of volcanic eruptions over a period of 50 years. The Little
Ice Age cooling event coincided with a drop in northern hemisphere
temperatures, which resulted in the growth of glaciers due to decreased
Most northern Hemisphere glaciers reached their maximum position during
the Little Ice Age. A detailed history of glacier advance can be
determined by radiocarbon dating organic material, such
as trees and moss, that were buried when glacial ice advanced. For the
Miller et al. study, the age 147 samples from areas located in northern
Canada and Iceland were used to determine the history of ice advance
during the Little Ice Age. The dated samples clustered between 1275 and
1500 AD, with two distinct peaks at 1275-1300 AD and 1430-1455 AD. Few
of the samples were younger than that, reflecting the sustained position
of the glaciers at their maximum position until they began melting
during the past 100-150 years. There were several samples that had dates
that were older than 1000 years, indicating that the glaciers used in
this study have melted further that their position during the Medieval
Warm Period. The first main peak and the initiation of the Little Ice Age coincided with four major volcanic eruptions, possibly from volcanoes in tropical regions. The second peak coincides with a major eruption that happened in 1452 AD in Vanuatu.
The aerosols from volcanic eruptions can explain the initiation of the
Little Ice Age, but since these emissions do not last long in the
atmosphere, they cannot explain the long duration of cold climate
conditions. Miller et al. ran a series of climate simulations to try and
reproduce the duration Little Ice Age, investigating the possibility
that it was caused by changes in solar irradiance (the amount of energy
the Earth receives from the Sun), sea ice, and oceanic and atmospheric
circulation. The results of their modelling indicate that the expansion
of sea ice after the volcanic eruptions caused an increase in albedo of
the Earth (the amount solar radiation reflected back into space), and
affected oceanic conditions in the north Atlantic. These effects
sustained the cool climate in the northern hemisphere until the mid
One of the most interesting results of this study is that changes in
solar irradiance is not necessary to explain the initation and duration
of the Little Ice Age. The coincidence of the Maunder Minimum
(a period of time between 1645 and 1710 AD when there were few sunspots) during the Little Ice Age has been used as evidence that solar variability may explain the event. Low solar irradience could still explain part of the cold climate conditions, but it is not a necessary condition.

Family Time { Portraits } Fremont, California
Who doesn't have five minutes to help get the word out for their photography business?
Here are 5 things that take five minutes, and what you should've done instead:
1. get more out of your email
What you did:
Write an email to mom trying to explain why you didn't call last Sunday (well, that may take more than 5mn)
What you should've done instead:
Use Wisestamp for your email and embed your business website, your Facebook fan page, etc. in your email automagically so that anyone you email knows about your business (yes, your mom, and the thousands of other people you email every year). Works seamlessly with Gmail and Yahoo Mail, and seriously takes 3mn to install.
2. Put your face out on Facebook
What you did:
Wrote on your BFF's wall about your latest photoshoot
What you should've done instead:
Create a Facebook Page for your business and suggest to friends (and tell them to suggest to their friends!). Bonus to get traction: add an original profile pic or take photos for a local charity and invite participants to tag themselves on the photos you upload to your page's wall.
Also make sure that you add a friendly message when you ask friends, like "Hey, come write something on my newly created Facebook page!". So… if you like these tips, come and write something on the Sphynge Photography Facebook wall!
3. Make the latte extra sweet for your business
What you did:
Wait in line for you latte (5mn is a short lane!)
What you should've done instead:
Think of the number of other people waiting in line for their latte! Ask your local coffee shop if they'll let you offer a free photo shoot – add a fish bowl for people to drop their business card into, and voila! You've got yourself a winner to try your services & tell their friends – along with new customer list of people you can send photo tips to.
4. Give more than your business card
What you did:
Spend 5 hours working on your business card, only to give it to a guy in the coffee shop line, who then tossed it with his cup.
What you should've done instead:
While most photographers think of putting their latest photo on their business card, few think about the back of the business card… how about putting 3 tips to look better in photographs on the back of your card? That will help you be remembered, and lessen the chance your card gets tossed away.
5. give your laptop a makeover
What you did:
You spent 5 minutes scratching off the old promotional stickers from your laptop (damn those things are resilient!)
What you should've done instead:
Make your very own promotional tool! Create a unique branded laptop cover with GelaSkins Inc. – uploading your photo with the name of your business and website only takes five minutes.… and think of the number of times you're working at that coffee shop looking at that laptop!
Get more tips!

Welcome to the St Nicholas of Tolentino Web site.
Parish Priest: Rev Richard McKay
Address: St Nicholas of Tolentino Church, Lawford's Gate, Bristol BS5 0RE
Tel Nos: 01179098810 (emergency use: 07779677370)
MONDAY-FRIDAY 10am-12noon; TUESDAY 2.00-4.00pm; FRIDAY 5.00-7.00pm
Parish Office tel No: 01179090419
170th ANNIVERSARY OF THE FOUNDING OF ST NICKS
We celebrate the Feast of St Nicholas of Tolentino, our Patron Saint and the 170th Anniversary of the founding of St Nick's Parish by the Augustinian Fathers. We launch Year 170 - a year of celebrations and events marking 170 years of Mission - of being Good News to the Poor. We launch Project 170 - raising funds to secure our buildings as a place of welcome and healing into the future. We rededicate ourselves to a future of Mission in East Bristol, to the coming decades being a place of welcome to the stranger, healing to the broken, Good News to the Poor.
Whether this is your first time to our Church family, or you have been coming here for many years - all are very welcome to be part of this wonderfully multi-cultural and diverse community of faith and friendship. This parish has been witnessing to Christ and serving the people of this part of Bristol since 1848. We are a 'Communion of Communities in Mission' with more than 60 nationalities who gather each Sunday to celebrate God's great Love for the world in our Mass. Our commitment is to be a people at the service of the poor, both locally and globally; to be a community of warmth and welcome; to be a community of healing and hope. We are committed to work for the unity of the Church with our brothers and sisters of other Christian traditions, sharing mission and worship together; and to seek to build a fellowship of all believers among the many world faiths in our area. In other words, we have long been seeking to grow as the kind of community that Pope Francis envisages in his Letter 'Joy in the Gospel'
You are welcome to become part of our community through our website or in person - whatever is best for you!
The Synod of Bishops on 'the New Evangelisation' a few years ago said in their closing message to the People of God: 'If people are going to see in us the face of Jesus Christ, then they have to see a Church that is reaching out to the poor, that is caring for the sick and the marginalised, that is providing for children the next step in their encounter with Jesus'. This is precisely the vision that animates St Nicks and its life and mission in Bristol's inner city.
As a parish, and as their priest, we and I take very seriously 'God's preferential option for the poor', as taught by the Church's Social Teaching. This teaching is enshrined in the Scriptures from the liberation of the Hebrew slaves from Egypt in Exodus (a story of abused refugees), through the Law of Sinai that was on the side of the poor and 'the stranger among you', and the Prophets who challenged the People of God to live justice rather than hide behind ritual and sacrifice, to the birth of the Saviour in the poverty of homeless Bethlehem, escaping as a refugee from Herod's terror and growing up in the poverty and squalor of Nazareth. His great parable of the Last Judgement asks nothing about religious belief but about our compassionate and caring humanity (Matt 25).
But this must never remain teaching - there is no 'orthodoxy' without 'orthopraxis' - living it in practice! The Church has always valued (even declaring them Saints!) those who practice such an option for the poor. Here are two stories from our faith Tradition.
St Lawrence was a deacon of the Church in Rome in the third century. The pope and the other deacons had been martyred in the catacombs, but the Governor of Rome heard of the riches of the Church - chalices, vestments etc. So he instructed Lawrence to bring these riches to his residence within two days. In fact Lawrence had already sold them to give the money to the poor of Rome - with the now martyred Pope's approval. So two days later he arrived at the doors of the Governor's residence with a crowd of the impoverished and the beggars of Rome and presented them to the Governor with the words: 'Here are the riches of the Church'! He was grilled alive that day!
Our parish patron saint (who lived in Italy in the 13th and 14th centuries), St Nicholas of Tolentino as a young child was brought up by his parents to share their love and concern for the poor, going with them to the homes of poorest with food and clothes. When he was a young novice with the Augustinians, he would give the monastery's food away to the poor. The community became angry and the Prior forbade him to do so. However, he knew a higher obedience and a more authentic voice, and continued to do so. One day the Prior intercepted him on his way from the kitchen to the monastery door, with a cloak full of bread for the poor. When challenged to reveal what he was carrying, he opened his cloak and it was filled with roses! The Prior recognised the sign from God, instructed St Nicholas to continue giving the food to the poor and instructed the community to support this work and not grumble. From that day, the community was never again hungry.
Almost all the ministries and charisms of our patron saint are being served by St Nicks 650 years after his death. We have long given food to the poor and homeless (now mainly but not exclusively through working in partnership with the Wild Goose Café), and now increasingly provide food and sustenance for those so-called 'failed asylum seekers' whom government policy makes homeless and destitute. Especially during the winter months we are often approached by those who have little food for themselves or their families and no money for heating and light in their flats etc. We help them by giving non-perishable food from our own 'food bank' (donated by parishioners) and by putting money on their 'energy keys'. We support addiction self-help groups (AA, Over-eaters Anonymous) by providing low-cost venue for their meetings. We have parishioners involved with One25 (a Christian organisation caring for street sex workers), and with One25 and Alabaré CCC established some years ago the then only hostel in the country for women seeking to leave the sex industry (the Well). Many of those we support are also ex-prisoners (Fr Richard and a parishioner were RC chaplains to Bristol Prison for over 13 years). Our premises are used by a wide variety of migrant groups for meetings and gatherings that build their communities (eg the Ethiopian Orthodox Church meets weekly for worship at St Nicks). Our now well-known work with asylum seekers and refugees lies at the core of our parish's identity and mission. It is also by far the most costly in terms of finance, time, energy and emotional stress. That is why we established and are actively supporting our 'Borderlands Charity'. We have estimated an annual 'footfall' into our premises (by non-parish use) of 35,000.
We also support mission globally through CAFOD, Missio (The Red Mission boxes) and our homegrown 'One World Schools' (an initiative of some parishioners supporting a school in each of Gambia, Sierra Leone and Ethiopia). These of course are not a drain on parish income. In these and other ways we seek to be 'Good News to the Poor' (Luke 4). All this is in addition to the normal round of parish work and the costly maintenance of Victorian church buildings etc
The community that carries forward this mission is rich in faith, joy, celebration, diversity, commitment and enthusiasm: but poor in finance. Most of our parishioners who have work are in low pay occupations (often as Care Assistants). Many of our parishioners are still seeking safe asylum and are either on very minimal (sub-poverty) NASS (National Asylum Support Service) support, or are totally destitute by government decree. This means they have no roof over their head, no warm winter clothes, no food, very minimal health care, no money for personal or transport needs etc etc... unless we, their brothers and sisters in Christ, support them. Where one part of the Body suffers, we all suffer in the Body of Christ, teaches St Paul.
And in the midst of all these challenges, we are a joyful, welcoming Christian Community drawn from over 60 nationalities who are building our 'Parish in Communion for Mission' as a communion of communities that celebrates our diversity and walks alongside the poor and marginalised of our Inner City and beyond.
St Nicholas, lover of children, born like Samuel, Samson and John the Baptist of barren parents, the gift of God and his parents gift to God.
St Nicholas, who learnt to break bread with the poor long before he learnt to break the Bread of the Eucharist - risking his future in obedience to the God of the Poor and disobeying the voices of those who knew not the poor man of Nazareth.
St Nicholas, man of prayer who entered Love's silence in order the proclaim Love's Saving Word.
St Nicholas, vessel of God's healing love, from whom healing and life flowed in all abundance, raising the dead, healing the wounds, setting free.
St Nicholas, God's compassion to the prisoner, God's protector and rescuer of the prostitute, listening with an gentle heart and open mind.
St Nicholas, reaching in praying love beyond the bridge of death, holding the Departed in the purifying love of God.
St Nicholas, inspirer of our mission, healer of our wounds!

Well, I
have the semblance of the beast. Ye gods. My fingers are numb from
screwing in a thousand (or so) 12 point screws. Not to mention removing
the vacuum tight seals from all the flanges and such. I can barely type
because my fingers have no feeling. Oh well, it was worth it. The
picture on the left is the beast as it
looks mostly assembled. Click on the picture for a larger view.
I was hoping to have vacuum tested the system, but it was not to be.
Several things went wrong. First rule is always read the fine print.
The six inch flange has through bolt holes, rather than threaded. It's
exactly as I specified, but I had forgotten. <sigh> So I'll have to
get a bolt set for that flange (it's covered with the orange plastic in the
picture) tomorrow. Second rule is to measure the flange, don't just
estimate it. I thought the main flange for the hemispheres was 14".
Nope. 14.5". So the viton gasket I got for that flange just doesn't
work. Have to (hopefully) return this tomorrow and pray they have a 14.5"
viton seal. Third rule is that not everyone thinks bolt holes are the same
size. The main flange which connects the chamber to the TOPS has smaller
bolt holes than the bell jar base which came with the TOPS. Gee.
Have to get a bolt set for that as well.
So all that delayed the actual testing of the beast for tonight. It was
fun though, putting it together. Wish I had actually built the chamber
itself, but gee – I'm just not that good of a TIG welder at all – certainly not
vacuum quality. Nor do I have a machine shop capable of building the beast
to even a semblance of the tolerances that Huntington did. I went down to
Huntington and got a tour of the place from Herb – the gentleman who managed my
the building of my chamber. Ye gods. 100,000 square feet of
amazingly cool machinery. Huge and really cool computerized milling
machines that made me physically drool. Racks and racks of seriously cool
raw material just waiting to become pieces of high quality chambers.
Amazing. If heaven actually exists, it will be much like Huntington for
I decided to use viton gaskets on all the conflats. Yea, I know.
What's the use of conflat seals if you aren't using metal gaskets? Well,
the problem with metal gaskets is their very high price. Copper is not
cheap. Oxygen free and precision punched. Not exactly free.
And once used, it's a false economy to reuse them – ever. However, knowing
this, the vacuum industry makes viton gaskets for conflat fittings.
Duniway pre-outgasses these gaskets, and claims they have an outgassing pressure
of 10-10 torr. Yow. If this holds
true, then I'm going to be one happy camper. These gaskets are reusable –
unlike the metal gaskets. And since I think that 10-7
will likely be sufficient for my needs, I think that this will work out so very
well. If these gaskets perform as Duniway advertised, then 10-9
is not out of the question. Gee, wouldn't that be just ducky?
Naturally, there's something wrong here. Has to be. Otherwise, why
would anyone be using metal gaskets at all? No doubt the hammer of reality
will come down and let me know how things really work. But until then,
I'll satisfy myself wrapped in the illusion that 10-7
is going to work for my experiments. Knowing all along that I'm just
living in fantasy land… And if the viton gaskets don't get me low
enough, I can always switch to copper gaskets. But by then, I'm sure to
have made ample use of the reusable viton gaskets in my exploration.
Anyways, until tomorrow…
wow dude that is the best thing to read when you're stoned
<heh> Glad to be of service.

CORAL GABLES — Jogging out to the practice field Monday morning, Miami players were loose. Some even smiled.
"It's like the first day of camp," one player said to another.
True, in a sense, these Hurricanes are walking where no other college football team's ever been. A few hours before practice, they were told UM was taking an unprecedented preemptive strike by banning itself from a second straight postseason.
The move could reduce future sanctions the NCAA is expected to hand down after its investigation into past recruiting infractions. The review of what appear to be major rule violations has already spanned 20 months.
Saturday's game at Duke could've sent Miami to its first ACC Championship Game, but instead it'll close another season in the month of November. Not since the NCAA sanction of 1981 and the four-loss 1982 season have the Hurricanes missed consecutive postseasons. Of course, the Hurricanes went on to win their first national title in 1983.
But that didn't soothe the burn for the current players Monday. Despite weeks of rumor and speculation about the ban, the move caught players off guard.
"I think everybody was in a state of shock, actually," quarterback Stephen Morris said. "It is what it is. It's a disappointing feeling, but we have to move forward."
Interim athletic director Blake James delivered the news in the weekly Monday team meeting. James said he participated in the decision-making process along with UM president Donna Shalala and the school's legal team. Shalala declined multiple interview requests, but released a statement Monday morning.
The decision was "not only a prudent step for the university to take but will also allow for the football program and university to move forward in the most expedited manner possible," the statement read.

In today's Wall Street Journal, former Cheney staffer John Hannah argues that George W. Bush deserves more credit for what is happening in Iran. Hannah thinks that the fact that there were protests against the Iranian government during Bush's term proves that Bush's belligerent stance toward Iran worked. Interestingly, Hannah doesn't cite a single Iranian who agrees with this. On the other hand, many Iranians have said that Bush's hard line policies and bellicose rhetoric, specifically his 2002 "axis of evil" speech, were terrible for Iran's moderates.
One of those is Grand Ayatollah Yusuf Sane'i, a key clerical supporter of the Green movement. Reacting to the "axis of evil" speech shortly after it occurred, Sane'i said that "a great injustice has been done to the supporters of democracy and freedom and true Islam due to Mr. Bush's speech."
Another is Iranian reformist parliamentarian Ismail Gerami-Moghaddam, who said in 2007 that the speech "led the Iranian people to grow increasingly skeptical of American slogans. In another sphere, our political rivals … attacked us. They said sympathizing with a country that puts us in the 'axis of evil' will take you down a dead-end road, and they were actually correct."
Meanwhile, in World Affairs Journal, former Bush speechwriter Marc Thiessen uses his preferred argumentative strategy of just making things up to present Bush's war on terror as a huge success. In a particularly egregious instance, Thiessen writes that "as the Bush administration ratcheted up pressure on the enemy, terrorist violence across the world plummeted," citing a "study by the IntelCenter [that] examined the 63 'most significant' attacks launched by al-Qaeda and its affiliates over a period of nearly 10 years":
It found that by mid-2007 the number of Islamist attacks across the world had declined by 65 percent from a high point in 2004 — and fatalities were down by more than 90 percent. The bottom line: The Bush administration's strategy of staying on offense worked.
The IntelCenter study (pdf) Thiessen cites, however, specifically excluded "attacks that occurred in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other insurgency theaters." This is like touting a drop in the crime rate by specifically ignoring areas where crime has shot up.
On this point, in January Assaf Moghadam reported in West Point's CTC Sentinel (pdf) that, since 1981, Iraq suffered some 1,067 suicide terrorist attacks (a number that has gone up since the report was published) which accounts for more than half of all suicide attacks since 1981.
Moghadam continues:
The sheer volume in which this tactic has struck Iraq is even more impressive since no suicide attacks were recorded in Iraq prior to the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003.
This is what Bush's strategy of "staying on offense" has meant for the Iraqi people — years of suicide attacks, reprisal attacks, and waves of sectarian cleansing that have utterly transformed the face of the country. It's important to understand that luring terrorists to Iraq to blow themselves up in markets and mosques wasn't some tragic side-effect of Bush's policy, it was in fact a goal of Bush's policy, one that Marc Thiessen is proud of.
Leaving aside the spinning of the Bushies, which is to be expected, the evidence we have strongly indicates that the extremists themselves perceive Obama and his policies as a far greater threat than Bush's.
Al Qaeda-linked theorist Abd al-Aziz al-Julayyil recently wrote (translated by Thomas Heghammer) that "The most important fruit of Bush's policies was the wake-up call it produced among Muslims in terms of realizing the true nature of their enemy, reviving the creed of loyalty toward Muslims and dissociation from infidels, and raising the flag of jihad in several battlefields." Bush's policies also resulted in "infamy suffered by America on the world stage and the demise of its false discourse on human rights; in the world's eyes America itself became a proponent of oppression and a threat to human rights."
But, according to al-Julayyil, Obama's approach is "weakening [Muslims] enmity toward America and makes them more positively inclined toward her future policies. It is numbing them, reducing their hatred toward infidels, and making them stop fighting."
It's interesting that the only people who can be found to speak up for Bush's policies are former administration hands and conservative movement pundits. The people who were the objects of those policies, however, disagree in almost every respect.

Does anyone have friends that are twenty to thirty years old? Do your friends still live with their parents? I have friends that still do. Those friends of mine depend on no one but their parents. They cannot even depend on themselves. I know for a fact that when I get older, I will not be living with my parents. I will be living in my own apartment that I pay rent for. But getting there will not be easy. I am going to need help. I am going to need wisdom.
All of us have experience eleven years of schooling. School has helped me overcome many fears. School has taught me many tricks in life. I can name many things that I have learned in school, but that would be a waste of time. Not only has school taught me everyday things, school has taught me to be passionate about the things I do. For instant, writing essays. An essay is not about a jumble of words. An essay comes from the heart.
My friends that I have mentioned earlier are living a life that is going nowhere. They have received their high school diploma, but that is about it. I believe I am not going to be like them. I believe I am going to live beyond what they are living. And I cannot do this by myself. Therefore education will be my buddy. Education was always there for me. I believe that education will be here for me today, tomorrow, and forever more. Education gives me knowledge, and knowledge gives me wisdom. I believe if it weren't for education, I would not be in this room giving this speech. For all I know, I could have been on the streets selling my body to strangers. I believe I will go further in life with school by my side, rather than not. I believe I will receive several college degrees.
With the living cost of life rising, I believe education is the number one key to a prosperous future. Education will not hurt me, but instead make me grow. I believe I am going to become a better person with knowledge in my head. I believe I will not end up being a bum. I will not be dumb. I will be intelligent and witty, because I believe education will help me. Education, my knowledge, my buddy and friend, will always help me through the end.

Grace Episcopal Church
13 Court Street
Cortland, NY
The Arts at Grace Sunday afternoon concert series offers its sixth and final concert of the 2008-2009 season on Sunday, May 24 at 3 p.m. at Grace Episcopal Church, 13 Court Street in Cortland. Just in time for Memorial Day, The JazzHappensBand will be performing numbers that are pure Americana. There is no charge for the event.
The JazzHappensBand is a traditional Dixieland jazz band operating out of Cortland. Their repertoire includes Dixie, blues, and quick stepping jazz. Band leader Jeff Dovi says, "I like to keep the music as true to a Dixie beat as possible, but we do throw in some rhythm and blues and some specialty numbers for the entertainment value they offer. I really think that Dixieland music is the happiest, toe-tapping and good-times music going; tunes that you can go home whistling!" What better way to get into the spirit of the first holiday of the summer of 2009?
Formed in 2005, JazzHappensBand was started because its members thoroughly enjoy playing their music together. Only Nick Pauldine (clarinet) and Steve Wilson (keyboard) make their livings as musicians. Band leader Jeff Dovi (trumpet) is a carpenter. Mike Poole (trombone) is a student. David Alexander (drums) is a lawyer. Jim Overhiser (tuba) teaches high school physics while Robbert van Renesse (banjo) is a researcher. Admission to all Arts at Grace events is free, but voluntary donations can be made at the door. Audiences are invited to meet and talk with the performers at informal, post-program receptions. For further information, call the church at (607) 753-3073.

Contemporary Dance in Istanbul, Turkey
by Elif Isikozlu
If you manage to walk a little way down Istiklal Caddesi in Istanbul, turn left on the side street adjacent to the far end of the first mosque, follow it past a row of tea houses, stop just before you get to the Otopark sign, climb the stairs of an unlit building and ring the bell of an unmarked door. You will find yourself at Çati (pronounced Cha-ti) Dance Studio, the heart of contemporary dance in Istanbul.
The studio is modest but functional: forgotten dance clothes strewn in the makeshift change room, old comfy couches on which to chat, floors that creak, a small sink, a messy but informative bulletin board, and most importantly a sprung wooden floor built by the very dancers that dance on it.
Çati, named after the roof its supporters help build, is the result of years of hard work on the part of a small group of dance artists who have chosen to freelance and is in the process of becoming an official freelance contemporary dance artists association. This is no small achievement in Turkey , where under the current government (and much to the dismay of many artists) the State theatre system is unduly influenced by members of parliament who would prefer more traditional, less artistically explorative work. Privately owned theatres do exist but they often produce popular work they know will generate an income, thereby leaving little room for artistic experiment and risk. In this socio-political climate, Çati Dance Studio is a rarity. It is a place where amateurs and professionals, however trained, are invited to try their hand at contemporary dance, Çati style.
Born out of the ashes of the Theatre Research Laboratory at the Muhsin Ertugrul City Theatre in Istanbul, Çati was founded in 2001 to provide Istanbul with a much needed and greatly lacking foundation for contemporary dance instruction, research and creation. Self-defined as a contemporary dance space, Çati values artistic exploration and research, thriving on a constant influx and outflux of technical and artistic information.
One of the driving forces at Çati is choreographer Mustafa Kaplan. He dances because he loves to dance and this purity of intention translates into his work, his teaching and his inter-personal relations. He is mentor to many of Istanbul s developing artists, encouraging them to pursue their interests both on and off the dance floor.
Be forewarned: his classes are not for the weak of spirit. If you give yourself fully to them (which his style of dance and teaching demands) they will teach you as much about contemporary dance as they will about yourself. This is not because time is spent analyzing the way you move but rather because his risk-driven, highly kinetic style of movement requires an immediate response, whether that be to engage directly with it or run from it. It is this response that will teach you things you never knew about yourself, opening the doors to artistic and personal growth.
Over tea, I ask Mustafa if he ever gets bored of teaching amateurs and new-comers when he could very easily stick to working with pros. He laughs. It turns out he is fascinated by the learning process, by the personal struggle we must all immerse ourselves in if we are to learn something new. Later that evening, during class, it occurs to me that his appreciation of this struggle (or in Turkish, mucadele, pronounced mu-ja-de-leh, one of the first new words I learned while living here in 1998) makes perfect sense; the struggle, mucadele, is what living and creating work in Istanbul is all about.
Originally from Konya (a city in south-eastern Turkey ) Mustafas choreography has been invariably influenced by Istanbul , the city he has called home for the past twenty years. He lives, breathes and moves to the rhythm of this metropolis and it is this rhythm; his is a desire to be influenced by Istanbul s streets and sounds and this desire has resulted in highly successful work, performed at home and abroad. He wants there to be more critical consideration of the contemporary dance arts in Istanbul . He wants discussion and debate and he wants Çati to be a space in which this debate can take place.
The studio does not run on Mustafas energy alone. There are a handful of Istanbul-based artists who take on creative, teaching and administrative responsibilities. Among these are a Mathilde Monnier dancer who divides her time between Turkey and France, a bio-statistics doctoral student, an arts patron and philanthropist, a Pilates instructor, graduates of Dansacademie/EDDC, a Capoeira dancer and Sociology PhD student in New York and a few freelance dancers and choreographers. Çati is thus made up of a distinct group of individuals whose broad range of knowledge and talent, combined with a pure love of dance, ultimately make it work.
Now, anyone who knows Istanbul will know that my directions to the studio have been far from helpful. This is deliberate. Finding Çati is an adventure unto itself, one you must struggle through on your own. It is this process of discovery that will make your arrival at Çati all the more personal and satisfying and perhaps give you a very tiny glimpse of what all these Istanbul dancers have to dance about.

Syracuse Views Fall 2018

Margaret Spillett

When School of Information Studies professor Marilyn Arnone first learned about a grant to fund new courses at SU that exemplify the University's mission of Scholarship in Action, she jumped at the chance to apply. The Imagining America (IA): Artists and Scholars in Public Life grant supports new courses that allow students and faculty to collaborate with the community in developing innovative solutions to local issues.
"I've been wanting to do something with digital media for a while now," Arnone says. "I came up with the idea of 'Digital iCreation in the Context of the Community' as a course in which students would work with organizations that have very little funding for producing digital media on their own, and would like to have more of [an online] presence."
Imagining America is a consortium of colleges and universities based at SU that supports public scholarship and practice. The consortium liked Arnone's idea for the new course and awarded her the grant in April. Launching in the spring semester, the course will provide student teams with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in applying information media to solve the problems of a local nonprofit organization. The course will be a combination of classroom work, media production labs and student work conducted through the iSchool's online learning management system (LMS).
Students will look at the overall goals of each organization with whom they work to decide what piece of the plan they can realistically enhance through online media in one semester. They will learn a mix of theory and practice; digital, informational and visual literacies, along with production skills.
Graduate student Kunal Kabra G'09, who is assisting Arnone with the course, is currently testing out media tools, such as Windows Movie Maker, Adobe Elements and Adobe Premiere Pro. "I am most excited about the creative aspect of the class," Kabra says.
Assignments will include video production as well as the creation of an iportfolio, a personal website showcasing the work the students have done throughout the course. The students will be creating projects using production skills they will learn in class. "The students will definitely learn how to create actual digital media," Kabra says. "They'll gain Web-related skills, as well as learn about legal and policy issues."
Data Momentum of Ithaca, a Web development firm, volunteered some of its services to help prepare the course website where student and organizations' digital media will be showcased, http://digitalicreation.org. Students interested in enrolling in the course can learn what the course entails and see the partnering organizations already committed to participating in the course, including the CNY Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, the Jail Ministry of Syracuse and the Reformed Church of Syracuse. The website also provides information about the purpose and mission of each organization, as well as the information problems they need solved.
As the class enrollment is limited to just 20 students, Arnone hopes to give this opportunity to students whose background and interests most appropriately fit the purpose of the course. Although programming and HTML skills are a plus, Arnone emphasizes that it is not mandatory for interested students to have an advanced technical background to do well in this course. "I want students not to be fearful of digital media or creation," Arnone says. "I want them to be enthusiastic about the creative possibilities for content generation."
Arnone is grateful for the support of Imagining America. "This all started as a result of the Imagining America grant, and I believe in this project so much," Arnone says. In fact, she is so passionate about the new class that she has allocated her own faculty funds for extra expenses. She ultimately hopes to see the course become a staple in the iSchool's academic program.
"Helping community organizations increase their capacity through digital media creation benefits both the community and students," she says.

Obama has been a horrible president. He has purposely divided this country and has made the U.S. a weaker nation. He wants things his way or no way at all. He is like a child that takes their ball and goes home when they don't get their way. The media covers up his many wrongs, and he spends our money like it's his own personal credit card. He is destroying this Country, but then, I think that was always his plan.
President Obama has been the worst president in American history. He has a horrible stance on foreign policy, allowed four innocent Americans to be killed in Libya when our embassy was attacked, and has put this country more in debt and more out of jobs. President Obama has done absolutely nothing right.
-lack of transparency (IRS)
-not knowledgable enough in economics, foreign policy, and negociation
-the obamacare DISASTER
-inability to attain robust economic recovery
-the Iran negociation disaster
-the disastrous attempt to raise the Cuban embargo, giving all concessions to the dictatorship while the human right violations continue to occur even right before Obama's visit to Havana.
As a US citizen living abroad, I can state that I do not recall any administration that had been so counter constructive to US interests.
Take a quick look:
1. Egypt - possibly the biggest mistake of them all - after the dethroning of MB (Muslim Brotherhood) under Morsi's regime, which could have lead the area to a catastrophy, instead of strenghing the moderate and secular Morsi, the US administration chose to give MB a vote of confidence by freezing US army aid to Egypt. What kind of message does that give to the secular Suni forces in the region? Well, that the US in more concered with the appearance of Democracy than the real-life democracy. Democracy is much more that the election system. Under MB regime, women could not appear in public unveiled, any MB opposition voices were silenced, but hey, the election were free.
2. Iraq & Afghanistan - yes, maybe these wars to begin with were mistakes made by Bush, maybe. But, once you're in there, you just cannot fold and leave the regimes to the fundementalist forces surronding it. Iran (IRGC), ISIS (Da'esh), Al Qaeda - were literally handed the control of these countries.
3. Syria - The most horrific genocide of the 21st century is going on there, do we hear a clear US voice, from the person that is renowned as "the leader of the free world"? Zilch. Nada. Nothing. Death toll is over 200,000, almost half of which are women and children, but hey, there's no oil in Syria, so why should we care? This atrocity had Obama's name all over it.
4. Israel - US and Israel relations, our closest ally by far had never been so cold troubled. Complete lack of trust, opting for the easiest psuedo-solutions every time (Gaza conflict of 2012 and 2014, Palestinian negotiations, Iran WMD control).
5. Ukraine crisis - If I were to tell you, back in the 80s that the US had a chance to take a part of the USSR and "westernize it" you'd say I'm a fool. What did the US administration do in face of an unprecedented crisis that could have created a US ally right by the Russian border? You've guessed it, absolutely nothing.
The age of US imptoance.
Obama began with an apology tour of the middle east, jammed healthcare down peoples throat who don't even want it, gave guns to drug cartels, spied on American citizens, lied about everything, covered up benghazi, used the IRS to target conservatives then not only lied about it, but covered it up, & the list goes on & on.... What more do u need?
Reading one argument about being mentioned is one thing. Sure we've never heard of Martin Van Buren, John Adams, or many of the others pre civil war and post civil war presidents. What he will be remembered for is his race. That's all he really has going for him besides the amount of golfing he does and the vacations he takes on tax payer dollars.
The corruption of his administration is just appalling. He only seems to learn about them from watching the news. Aren't you the president? Aren't you suppose to be on top of things? Aren't you suppose to know what's going on in your own administration? He is really that disconnected and out of touch with reality on that one. And the fact he never takes responsibility for these things is just astonishing.
Lets not forget how he has decided to, not only undermine, but to shred the constitution and make many executive orders that are pretty much unconstitutional! And this illegal Amnesty order is just one of many.
This administration is the worst administration of all time. Never has an administration so blatantly conducted government business to benefit themselves at the expense of the people. The economy is heading to a point in which it may never recover. Masses of people are unemployed. We are on the brink of war. We will soon default on our debt. This country is crumbling at the hands of the president and the congress.
Obama's four years have produced four consecutive trillion dollar deficits and $5 trillion in debt. In March 2012, the debt reached 100% of GDP. It has not been this high since World War II. As a result of Obama's policies, the U.S. Suffered an embarrassing credit downgrade. Bill Clinton has warned that Obama's deficits will eventually result in hyperinflation.
President Obama's economic record is the worst of the modern era. The economy's growth has decreased every year of his reign. His policies have doubled gas prices, exploded the deficit and debt, decreased middle class wealth, led to high unemployment, depressed the labor market, and benefited only the wealthy. On top of this, Obamanomics promises to create hyperinflation and "skyrocketing" energy costs. Since World War II, no president, not even Jimmy Carter, has had a worse economic record.
The problem with Obama is that he can't connect with the majority of Americans. He can't communicate with the American people like a president should. I'm a democrat and even I don't like Obama. He has divided the country better than almost every president with his policies. He has lost a ton of support from independents, who used to like him. He might not go down as the worst president, but in 100 years what will people remember him for, other than being the first (half) black president and the killing of Osama Bin Laden? Although Wall Street is back, the unemployment rate is still way to high. He is a complainer and not a go-doer. He went for a grand slam in the gun control debate and struck out. He might have a great personality, but will never be a half decent president.
Sincerely, A concerned DEMOCRAT.
He should go to jail! Just like the mayor of Chicago and Nixon! Worst president this country has ever had. History will judge him as a sneaky liar, power hungry tyrant who caused the moral decay of American life, not qualified to be president of this great country. He only got it because he's black! He lied about the deaths of 4 Americans in Linus... And hangs out with drug dealers...
Trump, Bush, Bush so, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, and Carter were all God awful to make a few. I don't think his policy had anything to do with any he was so hated. I think people just plan didn't like Obama. Most Americans don't watch the news, read the paper, or even look up from their phone when there in public, so its not surprising how misguided notion like this get so much traction
John Adams, how many people knew that he was the 2nd president? Not many because his presidency was a failure. How many people have heard of Martin Van Buren? Know why? Failure. William Henry Harrison? Failure. Millard Filmore? Nope. You know why? They were all catastrophic failures. Obma's administration is down there, but it CERTAINLY isn't one of THE worst.
Although it seems to me that Obama has compromised many of his ideals, saying that he has been "one of the worst" disregards much of American history, even from the past fifty years. Nixon's paranoia could easily be considered the main reason Americans no longer trust their government, and even though there have been cases of such paranoia in other presidents, Nixon with this and many other things showed just how little he was connected with his nation. That's just Nixon, I'm certain a send - up of Carter would also prove him to be less efficient than Obama and if you look through all of American history you get an even more broad picture - just look up Andrew Johnson, the democrat who was pro slavery after it's abolition and who introduced the beginnings of segregationism and tried to reinstitute slavery itself under another name. This is a man who would persistently swear at his fellow congressman and was eventually impeached for a charge that could only be described as "bad behaviour" - i.e. turning up at Congress meetings drunk. He allowed the KKK, which he should have been against for their murders of blacks in the south, and the Reconstruction Act, which he was against because of his states' rights ideology, pass through right under his nose. If Obama (or Romney possibly) turns up drunk at the next session of Congress and starts swearing at his opponents while they subtly repeal the affordable health care act (or in Romney's case pass universal healthcare) then maybe, just maybe, they will have the beginnings of an Andrew Johnson or a Grover Cleveland. Otherwise I don't think so.
Without a doubt, Obama was thrown into a tough situation. But he accepted it, and promised to decrease our deficit by half. This didn't happen. Instead, our president pushed for more government into states rights (church, education,immigration, healthcare,etc.) and tried his hardest to make the citizen more dependent on the Feds (just look at the food stamp numbers). Poverty's worse than its ever been since the Great Depression, and he still blames Bush! It's comical, in reality the true lack of ownership this man has. A so-called Christian who now has 23 lawsuits against him by the Catholic Church and announces his support for gay marriage. Once more on the fence. In total, this so indecisive and intent on manipulating individual liberties that if I could change my answer now, I would.
The Obama administration cannot be considered as one of the worst in American history. The president and his administration entered office under severe conditions, with two wars being waged overseas, a terrible economy, a healthcare crisis and an abundance of national debt. It is extremely difficult to deem Obama's administration as one of the worst, since no presidents have entered office under similar circumstances to compare it to.
Hoover was also left with an economic mess to clean up. He used taxing as one way to fix the economy and of course tax raises never receive the peoples praise. He even attempted re-election, just like Obama, knowing that the economy is still not in a good shape.
There is no specific act that Obama has done that makes him any worse than previous presidents who have committed fraud, overworked our troops, and abused national money. Obama came into office after the country had already suffered, so he was left with the "mess" to clean up. Therefore, he should not be blamed.

'THE BIG C' (Showtime) Season 1
The series: This challenging, decidedly offbeat look at an uptight high school teacher (Laura Linney) who keeps the news of her late-stage cancer diagnosis a secret from her family for most of Season 1 pulled strong initial ratings but has garnered only middling reviews. It may provoke and annoy more than it charms, but this acquired taste did build to a powerful season finale, and Linney, who is also nominated, did exemplary work throughout. The critical take: "It has a terrific cast, and I watched it hoping it would get better, but it didn't really. The comedies didn't do that well this year, and I think they just wanted to put a new one up there."

The problem of evangelical biblical illiteracy
While the Exploring Religious America Survey of 2002 reports that over 84 percent of Americans consider the Bible to be "very" or "somewhat important" in helping them make decisions in life, recent Gallup polls tell us that only half can name even one of the four Gospels, only a third are able to identify the individual who delivered the Sermon on the Mount, and most aren't even able to identify Genesis as the Bible's opening text.
Is this really a problem, and what might be the way forward on this?

Book: Me Talk Pretty One Day
Book: Me Talk Pretty One Day
Popular writer David Sedaris (we actually went to see him at the State Theatre a couple of weeks ago) put together this New York Times bestseller; it's a range of short essays, based on observations from his life and childhood, and – in the second half – from his attempts to learn French, in France, from a teacher who freely admits that she hates him.
Though his sense of humour and choice of subject matter will not be to everyone's taste, I found his writing to be tight, and – on occasion – laugh-out-loud funny.

Rufus Cafe, Surry Hills
Aroma coffee. 1/47 Cooper St, Surry Hills. 9699 3193.
High ceiling with a glass wall at the frot makes this a well lit space, with searing for 31 indoor and out including a big table that seats 8. There's an emphasis on sandwich making ok the menu, but the small kitchen at the back has a few other offerings too.
When I visit, the air conditioning seems to be outclassed by the heat and humidity of the day. Food service is on the slow side.
Coffee is bulk ground, and there's no decaf grinder in sight, but in spite of this it's a milky, slightly sweet coffee with – unsurprisingly – not a lot of nuance. The bacon and egg roll, though, is really good: crisp bacon with runny eggs.

crowdsourcing a sermon – part two
In the first part of the story of a sermon I preached I talked about the initial preparation stages, moving into Microsoft Word. It's at this point that the sermon writing begins in earnest.
The first word document I was working on is mostly a list of bible verses, in the order of the outline, with some vague thoughts about an introduction to set the approach for the sermon.
In subsequent drafts (when I've made some progress, or I'm about to make a major edit, I'll create a new word document and give it a new number – in this case we had draft01 through draft08, and then final.doc). Each of these represents putting some more "meat on the bones", where I think about each small passage, and work out how it applies to me. From there, I think through what it might mean for the people listening to the passage.
For this particular sermon, I'm looking at how popular opinion from secular society relates to what is being said in James, and so the flow of each passage is to consider what society at large might think about a particular topic, and then look at the counter-cultural message of the bible. From there, I want my hearers to understand what difference this particular section should make to their lives.
A more traditional sermon might make three points, and then, at the end, give some idea as to how someone should live their life differently as a result. In this case, I'm going for more of a shotgun approach – covering more points than that, and providing an immediate application to each one, so that different hearers can take away different things.
When I get close to the end of preparation (which for this sermon means being a few hours away from preaching), I read through the draft, aloud, and record it. This gives me an idea of timing – 3000 words is about 20 minutes, allowing time to improvise in the final delivery.
It also helps me tidy up the wording where I'm likely to stumble over my words, and see if something that makes sense – to me – when written down will make sense when spoken.
A couple of times through this process I'll print out a draft and give it to Kel (my wife) to read – she gives me really useful feedback, and helps me make the sermon as clear as possible: I think I'd be much harder to understand, and stumble over my words a lot more without her help. She also provides me with the encouragement to keep improving the sermon when I hit a wall.
In the next part, (if anyone is interested), I'll post up the text of the sermon, and an audio recording of the actual sermon.

Prevail Technology Advancements
With innovative technology, Prevail is improving the quality of life for those individuals that rely on incontinence products. Prevail's focus is on continuous improvements. Below, we have listed a few of the more significant innovations that can be found in Prevail products.
Prevail Max Soft Technology - Super Quick & Super Soft
Using innovative technology and know-how, Prevail products feature the new exclusive QUICK WICK layer with MaxSoft technology. With recent material and process improvements, the Prevail QUICK WICK layer with MaxSoft technology combines superior softness with first-class acquisition speeds for optimal product performance, quickly pulling liquid away for drier skin and reducing the chance of leakage.
MaxSoft technology works by changing the full pattern with improved size, shape, arrangement, and lower funnel height. Smaller openings are less noticeable to the touch, while increasing the number of funnels actually creates a more permeable film. Finally, a unique arrangement of the funnels maintains the structure and stability of the acquisition layer to provide an open area for absorption.
Odor Guard Technology - Helps Prevent Odors
First Quality's Odor Guard technology is proven to reduce the total amount of ammonia that is formed within adult incontinence products during and after use. Prevail products with Odor Guard technology combined with Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) is a "one-two punch" that helps prevent odors before they are formed and still has SAP available to absorb any odor that might occur. Reducing odors creates a more friendly home environment, improving staff, resident, and family satisfaction.
Thin Core Technology - More Discreet Absorbent Cores
Advancements in materials along with First Quality manufacturing expertise make it possible for products to absorb more with less bulky material, while keeping liquid locked-up and away from the skin.
Prevail discreet absorbent core technology allows for thinner products that are highly absorbent. The result of Prevail technology is creating a product that is more comfortable and more discreet.
Skin Smart Technology - For Skin Wellness
Skin Smart fabric is a hypoallergenic material that is made with Vitamin E and the natural botanicals Aloe and Chamomile. The Skin Smart fabric is the inner-most layer of the incontinence product that comes into contact with the wearer's skin.
Skin Smart fabric is enriched during the manufacturing process to infuse the vitamin and botanicals into the material. These materials will not wipe off and will not impede the performance of the incontinence product and it's ability to wick and lock away liquid from the skin.
Aloe, Chamomile, and Vitamin E were all chosen because they are commonly known to have positive benefits for the skin.

John Adams to John Jay, 27 Feb. 1786
Grosvenor Square Feb. 27. 1786
At the last Conferences, as they call here what is understood in Paris by Ambassadors Days the Marquis of Carmarthen was pleased to make an Apology for not having yet answered the Memorial requiring the Evacuation of the Posts. "It will Sound oddly to Say that he had delayed his Answer, to prevent Delays, but it was true. He had drawn up his answer, but as he was obliged to Say Something, concerning the old Debts, he had been obliged to wait for a little further Information, that he might State in one View all the Acts of the Assemblies which had interposed Impediments.—As this is some kind of Respect to the Memorial, it ought to be communicated to Congress as no doubt it was intended And expected, that it should be.
The publick Prints will inform you, that the Newfoundland Bill and the American Intercourse Bill is revived. it would be sufficient to convince every American what the system is, to say that Mr Jenkinson was the Member of Administration and the House of Commons, Selected to conduct this Business. comparing his well known Character with what he Said, You will believe that the same Men and the Same Principles which have governed this Nation in their Conduct towards America these twenty Years, prevail to this hour as far as the Circumstances will admit; and that Mr Pitt is either a convert to their sentiments, or is only an ostensible Minister.
It remains with the States to determine what Measures they will take to discourage a Commerce the most impoverishing and ruinous, that can be imagined, to promote a more beneficial Intercourse with the rest of Europe, and to support their own Manufactures and navigation, for on Such measures alone can they have any Dependence, in future.
With Sincere Esteem I have the Honor / to be, Sir your most obedient / and most humble servant
John Adams.

'Although many pro-life and pro-family advocates are breathing sighs of relief at having dodged a Clinton presidency, they now have the task of ensuring Trump keeps his pro-life promises – and appoints Supreme Court justices opposed not only to Roe v Wade but also to same-sex "marriage" and Obergefell v Hodges.'
Those are the words of
In an op-ed following the shocking news that that Trump is now to become America's 45th President, wrote pointed out that:
Many polls indicate Trump won more evangelical voters than Romney, McCain, or George W Bush … He will be responsible for thousands of appointments and federal employees with the power to shape American culture and public policy for generations to come.
She added:
Trump's candidacy has troubled many pro-life and pro-family advocates, and many refused to get behind his candidacy, but the majority came around to supporting him in order to prevent Clinton's election.
Trump made a series of pro-life pledges that sharply contrasted Clinton's support of abortion on demand: he promised to sign the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, defund Planned Parenthood, and appoint Supreme Court judges like the late Justice Antonin Scalia. He also said he would make the Hyde Amendment permanent law so that taxpayers would not be forced to fund abortions.
Trump also appointed many strong social conservatives to leadership roles in his campaign, such as Kellyanne Conway, a pro-life pollster who he appointed as his campaign manager. His Catholic Advisory Board was chaired by Joseph Cella, the founder of the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast. Its members included leaders such as Senator Rick Santorum, Father Frank Pavone of Priests for Life, and C-FAM's Austin Ruse.
As his general election campaign gathered steam, Trump became more vocal about his pro-life views and attacked Clinton for her abortion extremism.
During the final debate, Trump also weighed in on what his potential Supreme Court justice nominees would do.
"If we put another two or perhaps three justices on, that's really what's going to be – that will happen," Trump said of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v Wade.
That'll happen automatically in my opinion because I'm putting pro-life justices on the court. I will say this, it will go back to the states, and the states will then make a determination.
With regard to gay rights,
Trump promised to advance equality for homosexuals but also said marriage should ultimately be a states' rights issue.
He said it would be his "preference" that the Supreme Court justices he nominates overturn Obergefell v Hodges, the decision redefining marriage, but would not promise to ensure they would overturn it.
One of Trump's main religious freedom issues during his campaign was repealing the Johnson Amendment, which threatens churches with the loss of their tax statuses if they endorse political candidates.
Who Trump appoints as Secretary of Health and Human Services, Attorney General, and Surgeon General will seriously affect religious freedom, the health services tax dollars fund or don't fund, and American social policy.
Soon, it will become apparent if Trump will fulfill his promises to the social conservatives who helped elect him or if he will simply pay life and family issues lip service – at best.
Meanwhile, the Telegraph reported that "panicked" Americans are researching how to emigrate online after early election results pointed to a a victory for Donald Trump.
There was an explosion in search traffic on Google for terms such as "emigrate" and "how to emigrate to Canada" following the announcement of a series of victories in key swing states for the Republican nominee.
Huge numbers of Internet surfers worldwide also began googling the phrase "end of the world" when the news broke.
And in Canada, the government's website crashed after it was inundated with visitors apparently researching how to become Canadian citizens.
Man is best and girl is weaker.
He insisted that, as a Christian, he would have voted for any man over Hillary Clinton.

Dominik Hasek is a goaltender for the Detroit Red Wings. In his 18-season NHL career, there was also a Dominik Hasek appearance for the Chicago Blackhawks, Buffalo Sabres, and the Ottawa Senators.
Hasek's career as a goaltender was considered one of the league's most successful in the 1990s and early 2000s. From 1993 to 2001, he won six Vezina Trophies. He also won back-to-back Hart Trophies, making him the first goaltender to win the trophy consecutively. During the 1998 Winter Olympics, a Dominik Hasek appearance led the Czech national ice hockey team to its first and only Olympic gold medal. In 2002, Hasek became the first European starting goaltender to win the Stanley Cup, also setting the record for shutouts in a postseason year.
Hasek won a silver at the 1983 World Championships, and a bronze at the 1987, 1989, and 1990 World Championships. He also won second place at the 1982, 1983, and 1985 World Junior Championships.
Many expect a Dominik Hasek appearance in the Hall of Fame. Even at the time of his retirement in June 2008, he continued to make records as the oldest active goalie in the NHL at 43, and the second oldest active player in the league.
**Dominik Hasek Speaker**
During his years in Buffalo, Hasek became one of the league's finest goaltenders, earning him the nickname "The Dominator." Dominik Hasek speaker topics can include the story of his strong play which has been credited with establishing European goaltenders in a league widely dominated by North Americans. Also, a Dominik Hasek speaker appearance is a great opportunity for your audience to learn how he handles games, as he is best known for his concentration, foot speed, flexibility, and unconventional saves, such as covering the puck with his blocker rather than his trapper.
**Dominik Hasek Appearance**
A Dominik Hasek appearance in the NHL created a legacy of 300 NHL wins, being the oldest goaltender in NHL history to post a 30-win season, and being the first goaltender to ever win the Lester B. Pearson Award in 1997 for most outstanding player in the entire league. He is also the only goaltender to win the Hart Trophy twice for Most Valuable Player, and is only one Vezina Trophy away from tying Jacques Plante's total of seven for most all-time.
**Dominik Hasek Endorsement**
Hasek's most memorable international performance came in the 1998 Winter Olympics, where he led the Czech national team to the gold medal. His play made him one of the most popular figures in the Czech Republic. He also helped to inspire "Nagano," an opera about the Czech team's gold medal victory, and in 2003, Petr Pravec and Lenka Šarounová named an asteroid (8217 Dominikhasek) in his honour. Considered by hockey legend Wayne Gretzky as the best player in the game, a Dominik Hasek endorsement will be a powerful tool. After all, if a Wayne Gretzky endorsement is good enough for him, then a Dominik Hasek endorsement must be good enough for just about anything.
