Kentucky resident honored during Wayland homecoming chapel
The Association of Former Students at Wayland Baptist University presented the Distinguished Alumni award to Dr. James McKinley, Jr. of Kentucky during homecoming chapel on Nov. 22.
Honorees are recognized for their service and support of the university, accomplishments in their chosen fields and for dedication to Christian principles, according to Director of Alumni Services Joe Provence. Other honorees for 2002 included seminary professor Dr. Robert Mathis of Fort Worth, Judge Roland Saul of Hereford, pastor Kyle Reese of San Angelo and Lucian Morehead, a retired attorney from Plainview.
A native of Kentucky, McKinley transferred to Wayland from Campbellsville College, where he earned an associate's degree while pasturing the Central Grove Baptist Church in Albany. He graduated from Wayland in 1954.
He then moved to Louisville to earn a bachelor of divinity degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, pastoring at Mount Moriah Baptist Church in Mount Eden during his time there. In 1958, McKinley and his wife Betty were appointed as missionaries to East Pakistan, where they served for 34 years as church planters, administrators and development workers. He has written four books about his missionary experiences, including his first, "Death to Life: Bangladesh," which was printed in English, Bengali and Japanese and sold 100,000 copies.
After returning from the mission field in 1992, McKinley served as a consultant for the Kentucky Baptist Convention and has been an organizer of Kentucky International Missions Fellowship, leader of Church Growth Strategy Team for the International Mission Board, and member and chairperson of the Fred Tucker Offering Committee for the Long Run Baptist Association. He has made 12 trips for the International Mission Board since his retirement in 1992 and in the past year has traveled to Tanzania, Indonesia and Bangladesh. He served as president of the Kentucky Baptist Convention for 2000-01.
He and Betty have five children.

Bulldogs Beat Harvard 10-8 on Senior Day
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – If you watched Dylan Levings pace the sidelines today in front of the Bulldogs' bench a few feet behind his teammates, you might think he was having a rough day. He didn't stop moving, going back and forth enough to wear out a strip of the new synthetic surface. Three different opposition face-off specialists tried to stop him from moving and couldn't come close as the No. 19 Yale men's lacrosse team increased its win streak to seven games and beat rival Harvard 10-8 in a thrilling home season finale.
Levings, who took every face-off for the Bulldogs (9-4, 4-2 Ivy), won 17 of 22 and had a game-high nine ground balls. The sophomore from Massapequa, N.Y., who ranks fourth in Division I face-off percentage, won the first six battles before taking nine of the last 10 on the way to one of the great performances in recent school history.
"I'm a little anxious and it helps me stay focused," said Levings, about his sideline routine. "I try to stay in the zone, in the place I was for the previous face-off. I felt like it was one of my best days. I think I play a little better when we need it, but I just want to win so badly."
This was the perfect way to send out 10 seniors, playing their final home game at Reese Stadium. The largest (1,675) crowd of the year saw the Blue improve its win streak to the longest for Yale in 22 years.
"Playing Harvard on our senior day really contributed to my motivation," said Levings. "They will remember this forever and I wanted to play well for them."
His ability to put the ball on Yale sticks helped junior Deron Dempster and sophomore Brandon Mangan each tally three goals on a day that saw just four Bulldogs find the net.
"We had a good scouting report on the goalie," said Mangan, who is second on the team with 19 goals. "We just kept shooting the ball and didn't let one miss stop us from shooting. The electricity of the Harvard-Yale match-up makes this game so physical. Everyone wants to win it. They needed to win to get into the tournament. It feels unbelievable to beat a team like this - nothing can compare."
The Crimson season came to an end at 6-8 (2-4 Ivy) with the loss combined with Brown's 10-8 win over Dartmouth. Harvard got three goals (all in the second half) from Jeff Cohen, who is second in the nation with 48 this year, and two each from Will Walker and Kevin Vaughan.
"He (Cohen) is definitely a great goal scorer. He can shoot from pretty much any angle," said defenseman Michael McCormack. "In the first half, I wasn't sliding from him as much, so I was pretty much hip-to-hip with him. In the second half, I started getting into packages a little more, and he was able to get the ball."
Yale, which has had as many as eight players score in a game this year, also got two-goal outings from senior Greg Mahony (3 points) and freshman Colin Flaherty.
"I'm proud of the guys," said Yale head coach Andy Shay, whose team plays Cornell in the Ivy League Tournament Semifinals next Friday night at Princeton as the No. 3 seed. "They played very tough, and it's a fitting tribute to our seniors to win the game like this."
Other than the face-offs, the final statistics were relatively close. Yale had the edge in shots (37-35), ground balls (30-26) and clears (13/15, 17/21).
Yale goalie Jack Meyer has had a number of big games in his first year as the starter. The sophomore from Manhasset, N.Y., who made four huge stops in the third to finish with 12 on the day, could easily be considered one of the game's MVP candidates. Meyer didn't begin 2012 as the top man in net but seized his first opportunity and has been between the pipes for the win streak.
The Cantabs held leads of 3-2, 5-3 and 7-6 before Yale's three-goal run from the end of the third into the start of the fourth made the ultimate difference. Mangan ran up the middle and bounced a shot in at 14:30 of the fourth to put the Blue up 8-7. Mahony, less than a minute later, scored with a long-distance sniper shot.
Cohen cut the lead to 9-8 at 11:18, but another ball didn't find the net until Flaherty, who ran past the Harvard goalie and some defenseman, scored with 1:14 remaining to clinch the contest.
There were plenty of highlight moves from white jerseys, but the prettiest scoring play on this sun splashed but chilly afternoon was a connection between senior Matt Gibson (2 assists) and Dempster. Gibson hit the junior in stride, with a crossing feed a few feet before the edge of the crease, and Dempster did the catch-and-flick past Harry Krieger (9 saves) to start the scoring in the second half.
"It would have been tough to lose this game and then have to turn around and play next weekend," said Yale captain Michael Pratt. "We watched a lot of film on last year's [Harvard] game. None of us were happy about the way it went, so we used that as motivation for this game today."

Cadillac DTS
going shopping looking at dts any one still having problem with car battery after it been parked for a week or so ,any other electrical issue , like what i seen but it what i can't see that worry me0
Well, the tire vibration is worse than ever now. I am assured it's not all in my head.....my co-workers asked what's wrong with my car when I drove to lunch today. Now it sways and shimmies at low speeds (such as driving in a parking lot) and vibrates like crazy on the highway from 55 mph or higher.
When they call to tell me the additional parts have arrived (to fix the power driver seat and replace the seat belt guides) I'm planning to rent a car and leave mine with them until they can fix it.
This is all very frustrating. The mechanics at the dealership seem to be trying their best, but I am just amazed that no one can fix this issue. I am an extremely conservative driver and don't abuse the suspension in any way, so this is mind-boggling.0
check those lugs nuts rob , they might forgot to tighten properly , i had that once , talk about dealer sweating , also do you have Vogue Tires , that could be some of the vib problem at higher speed , harder side wall and although you see that tire on alot of caddy i think it a great looking tire but you get a mechanic alone that will talk he tell you the truth , good luck0
You have every right to be concerned. If there is a highly regarded tire shop in your area take to them. Would also ask Cadillac Corporate customer service to schedule you with a second dealership service department in your area. Ultimately if this can not be resolved last resort would be the Cadillac repurchase program. There are also lemon laws
in most states. In most cases the car qualifies if it is less than thirty months old and cannot be repaired after a certain number of service visits. You might want to check Lemon laws in your state, laws vary from state to state. Please be sure to share your progress and follow up questions with us. Best wishes for a
quick resolution to this problem.0
If the lug nuts were not tight, the wheels would have come off by now I would think. Were the wheels being rotated on a regular basis? Or have they been rotated in the process of trying to fix the problem? Perhaps the question to ask is whether the dealer has the equipment needed to balance tires right.
I was very happy with the tires that my 2002 Seville came with, Michelin's.0
I hope robw64's wheels have not fallen off.
My thinking on what is probably going on is that the tires are starting to get belt separation. If they were not rotated soon enough, that can happen. Some tires just do that anyway. His description of what was happening seems like that, unless of couse the lug nuts came loose.0
Nope....the wheels haven't fallen off.
I'm waiting for the parts to arrive to repair the driver's seat lift mechanism and the b-pillar seat belt guides. It seems strange that it would take a week and a half (so far) to wait for those parts, but still no call back yet.
My guess was tread separation from the outset. However, replacing 2 of the tires and rotating them hasn't helped. The tires were rotated regulary from the time I bought the car, so there isn't a concern about maintenance (dealership asked about that, too).
Here's a new question for everyone: would a faulty suspension cause this? I asked a friend to follow me on the highway the other night, and he didn't notice wheel wobble but thought the rear tires looked like they had an excessive amount of up-and-down activity over smooth highway pavement.
I've been re-reading the forum, and have seen posts about thumps in the rear exhaust/suspension area. I'm wondering if maybe the self-levelling suspension has developed a problem. The Luxury III (I believe) has the magnetic ride control, which might cause this?
I promise to keep everyone posted. I'm trying to remain patient while waiting for the additional parts so I can do this all in one trip.0
fmoeller Posts: 21The LUX III has the standard suspension. You have to go with the Performance to get the magnetic suspension. This is what I have, it also comes with larger Bridgestone tires. I have never experienced a rough ride from the tires. There was one post where the dealer replaced all 4 tires which corrected the writers problem which was as you are describing. Rest assured that the there is no correlation between the exhaust knock and the tires. I have the knock (see my earlier posts) and an exhaust canister was replaced which did nothing to correct the problem.
I would suggest that you try to get the dealer to replace all 4 tires with another brand to see if that helps. There has been a lot of complaints on the WEB regarding Conty tires.0
Looking back through your posts, you indicate that the tires were rotated when you got a nail in one at 10,000 miles. If this was the second rotation, then I would agree that lack of regular rotation was not a cause....
My guess is that the belts are separating in one or more of the old tires. This will result in problems which can't be fixed by balancing. I agree with fmoeller that replacing the tires with another brand is a good plan. Getting Cadillac to pay may be another matter.0
Please read my previous posts regarding electrical problems.
In addition, yesterday, August 28th, the car stalled out at second ignition and message came on "service security system", I waited a moment and car started without further issues for the rest of the day. I was near a Cadillac dealership so stopped by to report and the service advisor
cleaned my key off saying that it might have been a piece of dirt on the key. Needless to say having had all the previous issues with the electrical system on this car there is a lingering concern about what might come next.
This is my third Cadillac and as stated in previous posts
each car has had a little more problems than the previous one. I like the Cadillac vehicle but am already thinking in terms of Lexus, Toyota Avalon or Mercedes. I think Cadillac is better value than any of above but reliability is very important to me. Oh for those days of my reliable Plymouths, LOL, they just ran and ran without issue. Of course they didn't have the comfort, performance, and power of the Cadillacs. As a final thought, my Lincoln Town car
has been pretty much trouble free since my purchase in July 2006, As stated before these cars are one of the best values in the luxury car market. Ford will be bringing Town Car back later in 2008 and build them in Canada.0
" the car stalled out at second ignition "
I assume that what happened is that the car started the second time that day that you went to drive it somewhere (having started OK the first time) and that after the engine started, it died. If the key was dirty, the security system may have shut it down "thinking" that you did not have a key for the car and were stealing it. More likely, your key may have a poor electical path so the computer may not be able to always determine that the key is authorized to start the car. I woul try using the other key to see if it works better.0
I suspect that the electrical system in this car is flawed in that when I started the car today the engine turned over with hesitation and I heard three times from the audio system with no error message. Ignitition was hesitant at each crank but the car started. I see that there is a product put out by Black & Decker that charges the battery from the cigarette lighter power source. The price is $ 50 dollars and it claims it will charge the battery in a few minutes. I may buy as an interim approach to using the car.
Since the car is to my taste and am very pleased with it when it works am trying to avoid the Cadillac repurchase or
Lemon law programs but this may in fact be going in that direction. I fully expect the batttery will go dead again very soon and hope if I have the Black and Decker charger it will work and provide an interim solution to this problem. RESPONSES BY OTHER DTS OWNERS will be appreciated
particularly if you have had electrical system issues with your car.0
Now I am puzzled again. In your previous post you stated that the engine stalled. You said nothing about the battery being weak. If the battery is weak, you need to tell your service department about that. I suggest that you try to explain things in plain english. In particular:
"Ignitition was hesitant at each crank"
Are you trying to say that the starter is cranking the engine over very slowly because the batter is weak :confuse:0
After driving a Jag Mk10 for several years I finally sold the lemon and bought a new 1966 Plymouth Belvedere - a totally stripped model with just power steering and automatic. It was great to have a car that started each morning without having to dry off the plug wires with a hair dryer. I agree with you on Plymouths. A friend drove his Dodge Dart to the junkyard when the body rusted away at 300 thousand miles. The old straight six started every time. I suspected that the junk yard guy drove it for several more years. I'm looking at a 2007 Luxury II next spring but if I get many more complaints on '06's and '07's on this forum I'll look seriously at a Lincoln Town Car. I'd like to get a Lexus but can't afford one and the Avalon is a nicer design. I drove an Avalon in Florida last year and was annoyed at the wind and road noise on the freeways.0
Appreciated your reply, I had the DTS out today and it seemed to run just fine, keep hoping that the problems will be corrected but am also preparing for more surprises. The first 2008 Lincoln Town Car has come off the assembly line
in St. Thomas, Canada to begin production there. My first Deville was produced in Canada and was the most reliable of the three Caddies I've owned. Am surprised to learn of the wind noise in Avalon, always thought these were very quiet vehicles. I also agree that while the Lexus may be one of the few most reliable and quality cars, they are also priced way up there. Still feel that a good and reliable DTS is one of the best values in the Luxury market.0
Well, here's the next chapter in the saga.
I took my DTS in for the power seat and B-pillar seat belt guide repairs on Thursday, 9/6, receiving a loaner car 'for the day' and was told the repairs would be done within only a few hours.
I phoned the service department at 4:45 to check for an update and was told they needed to keep the car at least overnight because some of the connectors snapped when they had to remove the power seat. No problem so far (I thought).
I received a call about 10:30 the next morning that the car was ready. Not even thinking I would need to check for damage, I took the car home even though there were dirty finger prints all over the interior as well as a lot of crumbs on the seat (I don't eat in the car at all and it had been vacuumed thoroughly since our road trip in July). This past weekend, while cleaning the interior, I noticed they put several gouges in the base of the b-pillar when removing/replacing the seat. Also, the trim plastics around the base of the seat are not aligned well any more (the passenger seat still looks great, so it's a noticeable difference).
Today, a passenger in my car tried to adjust the passenger seat and now it doesn't lift, either. We also tried to adjust the seat belts and noticed that neither of the new seat belt guides will move at all....the pieces don't even 'compress' as they should to release the catch and allow them to slide.
This has been a remarkably disappointing experience with the car. In addition to the tire wobble (yes, they were rotated once before the 10,000 rotation), I've had far too many build quality issues with this luxury car.
I will be calling the service department tomorrow. Wish me luck.0
I am very sympathetic to the problems you are having. Service departments are about the only place my cars have ever been damaged. Unless you are completely satisfied with the response that you get from the service department call Cadillac customer service department ASAP and document all these items with them. You have every right to prompt, courteous service and in my opinion the service department ought to make these issues up to you in some substantial form. Yes, I wish you luck but I also suggest that you present yourself in very polite but assertive fashion. In the future when you take your car in for service have the service advisor look the car over before turning it over to them and if they object remind them of this incident. When you pick the car up after service take a few minutes to check the car out for visible damage. This SHOULD NOT be necessary but given the realities of to days world it is absolutely the minimum you should do. In my opinion Cadillac corporate needs to assume a much more aggressive position with dealerships and their service departments. please post updates as time permits. It seems to me that an important benefit of these forums is for owners to share information that will help resolve problems and improve build quality and service.0
I asked earlier if anyone on this Forum has an '06 or '07 DTS that has been relatively trouble free? I'm in the market next spring and from what I've heard I might buy a Town Car instead.0
kpsm Posts: 12I'd think that most of us owners have an experience similar to mine. (It's the few with problems who tend to be vocal about it.)
I've just reached the 10,000 mile point for my '06 Performance Model DTS. This is absolutely the most trouble free car I've ever had. I've had the oil changed and had the tires rotated. Otherwise, I have not had the car in the shop.
The magnetic suspension really makes a difference in the ride. Almost everybody who rides in my car for the first time comments on how good the ride is.
I also like the navigation system a lot and just got my first free update DVD for it. I typically use the split screen display with the maps on one side and the XM program information on the other side.
My car has every available accessory, with the exception of the adaptive cruise control, which I intentionally excluded.
My wife has a new,loaded Lincoln MKZ, and she's had it in the shop several times for warranty repairs.0
In addition to reliability I would strongly suggest that you evaluate, drive and consider both Town Car and DTS for your next purchase. I like both cars and would not want to part with either one. A lot of this is a matter of personal taste. To pick one or the other without doing some serious evaluation of both might not serve your best interests. From what I've been able to learn about the Lincoln line up, Town Car is probably on average the most reliable. Some fleet owners have run these (T.C.) cars up to 500,000 miles.0
My car has been serviced. Here's the follow up:
- The seat belt guides on the B-pillar were installed incorrectly, which prevented any adjustment in their position. According to the service manager, they need to be installed and calibrated (?????) to ensure they are aligned properly on the B-pillar. He agreed this wasn't even checked before they sent the car home last time.
- The passenger seat was somehow locked in the up position and the service reps released it and it works fine now. There was no need to remove/replace any parts on this one.
- I pointed out the deep scratches from removing the driver's seat during the last repairs. The shop is ordering a new B-pillar cover and will call me when it arrives.
- The tire wobble is still there, and I'll need to replace the tires to resolve it (at least I hope that resolves it). I've started shopping for replacement tires and am leaning toward Michelins.
During my frustration regarding these issues I started looking at other cars.....I was nearing the end of my tolerance level. I tried a Lincoln MKX, looked at a Ford Expedition, researched a Volvo S80. As I simmered down a bit, I again realized how much I like this Cadillac. I'm still hopeful this recent comedy of errors is a fluke...I don't want to get rid of the car, but I can't keep spending so much time on repairs.0
My 2002 Seville came with Michelins and I rotated them every 7-8000 miles. When I traded the car in at nearly 60,000 miles the wheels were still on the original factory balance, except for the one that had gone flat once.
So, I can recommend Michelin. I have also had Goodyear Eagles which have been good.0
Wanted to express my moral support for you in your time of frustration. I wish I knew for sure what to suggest, but think you need to contact Cadillac corporate if you have not done so already. Try writing to the President of Cadillac division if customer service fails you and if that fails write a letter to The chairman of GM (Rick Waggoner). Be sure to send by certified or registered mail with return receipt requested. Would also suggest you start investigating the lemon laws of your state to see if your car qualifies. In the meantime continue to work with the dealership and if you have not already done so request a meeting with the general manager or the dealership owner.
While my electrical system problems have been a disappointment, they pale in comparison to the issues you have shared with us. Stay connected here as time permits and please feel free to ask for advice from other owners, some of us really care and want to be of positive assistance. Best wishes.0
It should be pointed out that Cadillac does not manufacture the tires and the tire warranty is covered by the tire manufacturer. Your Cadillac dealer may carry OEM replacements, but the issue here is: do you want good tires or free replacements.
It seems to me that robw64's service department is taking care of the mess that they made with the seat.0
Thanks - I'm going to buy a Program Car around March and am considering either a Performance or A Luxury II 2007. I want a ride similar to my Base model '03 Deville. I do not want a stiff "European" ride like a Mercedes regardless of how this may improve handling. My '03 is perfectly comfortable and I can drive it for days on the road without a back ache or handling problems. I'll have to drive both the Performance model and the Luxury II before deciding I guess. I don't need the extra power and don't want the gas mileage to suffer either. The '06 and '07 I understand get less gas mileage than my car.0
beardie Posts: 44I have pretty much the same idea as you. I have a 2005 Lexus ES330 coming off lease in March.I've been unsatisfied with the car since I got it. Not enough leg room (I'm 6'1), bad transmission hesitation, and seats firmer than I like.I sat in a DTS the other day in a showroom and almost fell asleep! So much more leg room, and much plusher seats. I'm with you...I want a "Cadillac ride", not a firm European ride. My back doesn't do well with that kind of a ride. I'm not sure which model yet, but I definitely want Stabilitrack, so I guess the base model won't do. I would also think that by March, 08 program cars will be available. I wonder if the price would be that much more than the 07.0
Thank you for the words of support.
It's been more than a week and still no word from the local service department whether the b-pillar replacement has arrived.
I decided to bite the bullet and bought four new Pirelli tires today. They were (of course) computer balanced and aligned, etc. at the time of purchase. The vibration is still there.....no better, no worse, no change. It still feels like the wheels are loose whenever I reach highway speeds (62 mph or higher).
I called OnStar to request a vehicle diagnostic to see if there were any error codes regarding the self-leveling suspension or anything else. There were no error codes returned, although I'm not confident in that report, either....I had signed up for the remote vehicle diagnostic e-mail updates but my car can't transmit those for some reason, so I wonder how OnStar was able to get it 'on request'.
I gave in and called Cadillac Customer Support today. Of course, they want to refer me back to the same dealer who hasn't been able to fix the problem. I asked them to see if there is any other dealer in Central Florida who is the "suspension center". They need to open a case file and follow all steps in the process before they can refer me elsewhere. Unfortunately, all 3 Cadillac dealers around metro Orlando are owned by the same company, so I'll need to drive at least 25 miles to get it in to a service center outside of this local market monopoly.
An interesting point: I noticed that every body panel, door, and lid (trunk and engine) has a sticker for a toll-free body shop parts service. This seems strange to me, so I purchased a Car Fax vehicle history report to see if any prior damage had been recorded for the car even though I purchased it "new".....no prior history of damage/repair on the report. Anyone out there know if there is another way to check for prior damage on a vehicle? I hope this car wasn't damaged and then re-sold as new. It only had 190-ish miles on it when the local dealer brought it up from South Florida.
As of right now, I'm ready to drive this car into the lake. I don't know what else to do with it, and apparently the service department doesn't either. I hope Cadillac is able to offer some assistance.0
I think i go to your main full service DMV and see if there a trooper or a vehicle inspection rep and ask them if they can tell you how to tell if these are orginal parts or not , i found out when i traded my 99 jag that i order new had been damage on arrival they repaired it and never reported it to me how did i find that out the serial where not there , jag dealer had went out of bussiness . i think if your under your miles you can probably lemon law that car becuase of all your troubles with that vibration , check with dmv also or consumer affairs hope you have all paper work , also when talking to dealer all comments make note about on your paper work or even ask them to be kind enough to write that down , probably won't but worth a try good luck ,also the rims are the factory , or after market , possibly if after market dealer took them off a lease vehicle put on yours if you pick out s set of rims and they had these sitting there clean them up put them on , my point is the rim might be damage goods ,0
Thanks very much for the follow up. You absolutely need to take your car to a service dept. not owned by the same corporation. You might even need to take it to two separetly
owned dealerships. I had to travel 65 miles each way to get a problem resolved so consider yourself lucky if you only
travel half that distance. If you suggest the idea of another separately owned dealership to Cadillac customer service I think given
the history of your problems with this car they will quickly agree. I would also have (Cadillac Customer Service) call the next dealership and explain the problem and then give you the name of the person to contact there. If Cadillac customer service acts as middle man for you in this process your chances of a good result will be much better. At this point it is important to keep Cadillac Customer Service involved as much as you can. I found a represenataive that took an interest in the problems I was having and he gave me his extension so I could get back in touch, this helped me resolve for the moment the electrical system issue I was having with my 2006 DTS. Hope my message is presented in comprehensible form, if you have further questions please present them here. And when you get the the problems resolved please post what the problems were and how you got them resolved. Best wishes.0

Official Calls For Blacks And Jews To Work Together On Issues By BUI Cohen Chronicle Special Reporter Blacks and Jews should ignore "racial racketeers" and should work together on common issues of concern, according to Kenyon C.

Although he conceded that the issue of quotas and.civil service jobs often divide the two groups, he said Jews and Blacks should unite on more important power issues. "The greater issue is that there are not enough jobs and opportunities for either one of these groups.'Jews are hot present in the hoard rooms and the country clubs where uier^ajiBr decisions' of this' country' are: made, and neither are Blacks," Burke explained. ' "Both groups ought to be trying to get into those board rooms and those executive suites, instead of worrying over who is going to get some mediocre "civil service job," he added. Burke criticized ''racial racketeers, people that will just fan the flames of distrust and do anything for their bwh political gains." • He said there are Blacks and Jews who might fit into this category, along with Others outside the two groups. "The way that the ad¬ ministration orchestrated, the whole quota issue during • the recejit presidential election was really an appeal to racism that pitted groups against each other," Burke said.

The once busy highways and expressways which criss-cross con-: tinental Europe with a •larger traffic density than that of most {American states, are now deserted. Belgium, Holland and Germany have decided to ban all motor traffic one day per week, Sundays, and a number of other countries plan to follow suit. The Arab imposed oil boycott has come as a demonstration of the role oil plays in modern■ industrial societies and of the Arab power and willingness to use it which, only a few months ago was unimaginable. While most Europeans, including governments, are prepared to put up with a little physical discomfort, none are prepared to accept the industrial implications of the ban. Organization of Economic Development statistics indicate as an example that a 20 percent cut in oil supplies for Britain could result in a 5 percent cut in^ industrial output. British economy, already gripped by stagnation, in¬ flation and massie strikes could hot sustain this ad¬ ditional strain. In France, rated high on the Arab list of "friendly" states, a regular flow of oil on the basis of the consumption during the first nine vmonths of the year, would also mean an end to the country's rapid in¬ dustrial expansion and a serious! economic blow. But even France is threatened with more direct action than just a non-increase in the amount previously used. A reliable French paper, "Le Monde," revealed this week that international oil com¬ panies, have informed France that they will be soon obliged to diminish their supplies to France by 1<H5 percent. Major oil com¬ panies, the paper reports and reliable ^sources con¬ firm, are redirecting sup¬ plies among themselves.

FCIAC track stars make national headlines
Of its 29 sports, perhaps none has brought more national attention to the FCIAC this season than track and field.
That was never more evident than during the past few weeks, highlighted on June 10, when Staples' Henry Wynne and Hannah DeBalsi, Ridgefield's Ellie Gravitte and Darien's Catherine Lacy recorded wins at the New England Championships.
Wynne -- who went on to win the mile at the national high school championships -- DeBalsi and Gravitte are ranked in the top 10 in the country in their events, while Lacy set a meet record in the long jump. Five other athletes from the league had top-three finishes, including two from Westhill: Billy Thibault, who was second in the pole vault, and Claire Howlett, who finished third in the 1,600.
"Every year blends into the next one, but this was a really good year," said Laddie Lawrence, the coach at Staples for the past 45 years.
When asked if he could recall the FCIAC experiencing this much success in one season, Lawrence said, "We probably have come close. We tend to be one of the better track leagues in New England. It may have happened."
Wynne, a senior who is headed to Virginia, closed out his career by winning the mile in 4:07.84 at the New Balance Boys & Girls Outdoor Track National Championships in Greensboro, N.C. last weekend. DeBalsi, who shaved nearly nine seconds off the New England mark in the 3,200, was even more impressive at Nationals. DeBalsi's third-place time of 10:16.20 in the two-mile shattered the Connecticut girls state record of 10:41.74 set in 1999. DeBalsi also crushed the National freshman record of 10:19.0 set in 1976.
Gravitte, a senior headed to Brown, shattered the New England mark at the FCIAC championships with a throw of 152-7, before besting that with a heave of 138-6 at Nationals, good enough for sixth.
The temptation is to wax hyperbolic and call this the start of a golden era for track in the county.
"I think the FCIAC, along with the rest of the state, has gotten very good in track," Lawrence said. "I have to agree this is one of the better years. I think there's a lot of reasons. The quality of kids that are going into track, nutrition, year-round training. Coaches are getting better educated."
Still, Lawrence tempered his comments. While the sport as a whole has gained traction, he said, having several athletes listed in the national rankings is more an anomaly than trend-setting.
Praising the simultaneous accomplishments of DeBalsi and Gravitte but speaking in particular about Wynne, who won a mind-boggling 22 career state championships and will go down as one of the greatest athletes in FCIAC history, Lawrence said, "We may go a long time before we see anybody like that again."
Tyson Kaczmarek, the boys coach at Darien for the past decade, said having runners as uniquely talented as Wynne and DeBalsi, at the same time and at the same school, is just shy of the odds of purchasing a winning lottery ticket.
"Connecticut and the FCIAC always has kids," Kaczmarek said. "Henry is probably the best runner I've seen in 10 years for sure. Not just in the state. He's that good. That's unique. I've never seen him out-kicked in a race, seen him lose in the last 100 meters. Hannah, what she's done is unreal. There's just a lot going on in New England right now, especially in Connecticut, which is cool."
DeBalsi, like a lot of distance runners, first got introduced to the sport at the middle school level.
"I knew I was faster than some of the other girls in the club," DeBalsi said. "I wasn't expecting any of this. My coaches, I wouldn't have done this without them. Between the workouts, and what they teach me about running. Our track program is pretty good."
Track, unlike other sports, operates in a parallel universe. There are a number of students that get involved to stay in shape for another sport -- that was how Gravitte got her start. Others develop a quick love and make it their primary sport. Many runners are also part of their school's cross country teams and participate in all three sports seasons.
"One of the things we get at Staples is a huge turnout for outdoor track," Lawrence said. "The numbers go down from indoor because of rugby, lacrosse, volleyball, baseball, tennis and golf. Some are all track. It has always been that way."
With better athletes comes stiffer competition. DeBalsi and Howlett have developed a healthy and friendly rivalry. DeBalsi set her mark after Howlett won both the 1,600 and 3,200 at the State Open meet.
"It pushes me to try and do better," DeBalsi said.
Kaczmarek said greater awareness of track has bred more challenges.
"There have been more recent standout performances in the FCIAC," Kaczmarek said. "Part of it is you can find how everyone else is doing right now online. If you want to win, you've got to know what the competition is like."
With Wynne and Gravitte graduating, it would be impossible to predict if two new unique athletes are going to just jump in and emerge to take their place.
But Lawrence said he expects the breadth of talent to stay consistent and hopefully grow.
"Usually in high school athletics you see teams develop one really good athlete," Lawrence said. "I think in this area you are seeing more coming out of schools."

Superhero Movie
Weinstein Co., $29.95
The proliferation of parody films with the word "Movie" in their titles has cheapened the noble tradition of making fun of pop culture, but "Superhero Movie" proves that there are still a few -- if only a few -- laughs left in the old formula. The jokes mostly flop, but the atmosphere is amiable, and every five minutes or so, writer-director Craig Mazin hits his target. The "extended cut" DVD contains the usual assortment of featurettes, commentaries and deleted scenes, as well as what might be Mazin's best gag: The disc is actually three minutes shorter than the theatrical cut.
Mon Oncle Antoine
Criterion, $29.95
Widely regarded as the best French Canadian film ever made, Claude Jutra's 1971 drama "Mon Oncle Antoine" re-creates life in a Quebec mining community in the late '40s from the perspective of a teenage boy who learns that adults aren't always so assured and upstanding. Criterion has given this masterpiece the treatment it deserves in a double-disc edition that includes a moving 80-minute documentary on Jutra's life and another comprehensive 45-minute film about the making of "Mon Oncle Antoine."
Paramount, $34.99; Blu-Ray, $39.99
Scott B. Smith's 2006 novel, "The Ruins," follows a group of tourists' cruel demise at the hands of a mysterious entity. The main problem with the movie version? Mysterious entities ain't so mysterious when there are cameras around. The DVD adds a commentary, deleted scenes and featurettes.
Paramount/MTV, $34.99
It took director Kimberly Peirce almost nine years to follow up her acclaimed debut, "Boys Don't Cry," but she clearly hasn't lost her interest in controversy. "Stop-Loss" stars Ryan Phillippe as an honorably discharged soldier who's ordered to return to Iraq, and as he wrestles with whether he'll obey, he also begins to question the values of his Texas hometown. The movie comes out a little soft, but Peirce remains a filmmaker of rare intelligence -- some of which she shares on the DVD's commentary track.
And . . .

LAHAINA - The crews of the Hokule'a and Hikianalia are on a voyage of discovery, setting sail in June on a Worldwide Voyage - 46,000 miles across the planet.
They won't be alone, however; they're taking the classrooms of Hawaii with them, the teachers and students young and old, on this cross-cultural, multi-international learning experience.
The mission of the Pacific Voyaging Society (PVS) is to share the message of Malama Honua (care for the Earth) and to become a catalyst for positive change through education.
Article Photos
Mary Anna Waldrop of Sacred Hearts School steers the Hokule'a.
Over the 48-month crossing, there will be altogether (at different times) 400 crew members from 16 countries on board the sister ships from Hawaii, including educators and scientists.
Hikianalia, the solar- and wind-powered double-hulled canoe, will serve as a platform for the study of marine science, educational outreach, communication and teacher training.
The Hokule'a will continue as cultural ambassador, sharing the skills and teachings of ancient Polynesian wayfaring and practices of sustainability.
During the four-year global trek, more than 100,000 students and teachers will be connected virtually to the PVS' third canoe, hokulea.org.
"The involvement of our youth has been one of the most powerful aspects of planning for this voyage," PVS President Nainoa Thompson explained in a press release.
The goal is to impart the wisdom of the wayfinders of the past through A'o Hawaii.
A'o means to teach and to learn, and the value is reciprocal.
Accordingly, the program pronounces, "Hawaii has much to teach the world and learn from the world."
Through a grant from A'o Hawaii, Mary Anna Waldrop of Sacred Hearts School in Lahaina is one of 20 in the state selected to facilitate the educational crossing.
She was surprised by her selection, but West Side community leader Diane Delos Reyes was not.
"Mary Anna is a true wayfinder," she commented, "not only as a voyager of the sea and the planet, but in the educational and spiritual sense as well.
"The big, big blessing," Delos Reyes added, "is that she is an outstanding teacher; and she is here, in Lahaina, and shares her gifts with all of us."
Ms. Waldrop has been preparing for this experience most of her life.
"I spent ten years living on a 30-foot sailboat, and I spent seven of those ten years cruising around the Pacific," she said.
"The focus of this voyage," Waldrop advised, "is on education. It's on transforming education; it is on breaking down the four walls of the classroom and opening up the world to the students."
The veteran educator has encouraged her seventh-graders to design their own curriculum for their eighth grade experience next year, blending the traditions of the ancient voyaging culture with modern science, technology, engineering, mathematics and social studies.
Middle School student Summer Macedo aptly defined the philosophy behind the groundbreaking curriculum.
"We learn from each other and teach all we learn. We test the boundary of traditional education, turning boring school books into creative activities and fun lessons that we can actually understand. Our teachers transform into students, and the students transform into teachers. Students push their minds past their limits into knowledge and wisdom they can't even imagine," she said.
"Sacred Hearts isn't just an ordinary school anymore. We are going to change education in ways never thought of before; a school without grades, without stifling classrooms of students who are so bored they are falling asleep from teachers who lecture for hours. A school that will replace report cards with creative portfolios"
Ekolu Lindsey, president of Maui Cultural Lands, has firsthand knowledge of Waldrop's talents.
"Mary Anna is a passionate teacher and an accomplished sailor. It's not often that you hear a teacher communicate her genuine love and compassion to a student in terms of being successful in life. She effectively navigates students through the tough maze of being a young student in a world of many pitfalls."
"When she told me," Lindsey continued, "that she was chosen to participate in the WWV and was hesitant to accept, my thoughts to her were what an amazing opportunity to share the many lessons/experiences gained throughout her upcoming journey. The benefit our community can gain through one person's experiences will be invaluable, especially for the future students and leaders of Maui/Hawaii. Her voyage will take her to another plain of teaching touched by only a few, for the benefit of many."
As an ambassador of the WWV, Waldrop is ready and willing to share the knowledge and has given presentations at Holy Innocents Church, Sacred Hearts School and Lahaina Yacht Club.
"I want people to know that they can contact me through my e-mail (firstname.lastname@example.com) if they want me to speak to their organization, club or if they want me to come to their school. I am very happy to do that," Waldrop said.
"I have been given a method, a way to hopefully inspire children and their families and communities to Malama Honua, to care for and protect island Earth. I truly understand now what the phrase 'he wa'a he moku, he moku he wa'a' means - the island is a canoe and the canoe is an island."

Police in Los Angeles are on the hunt for a two burglars who allegedly stole a brand new Maserati and jewellery from Miley Cyrus' California home.
Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department's North Hollywood station responded to a reported break-in after the Wrecking Ball hitmaker's assistant noticed items were missing from her home over the weekend (31May-1Jun14)
A spokesperson for the LAPD tells the Associated Press that a man and a woman are believed to have scaled the fence and broke into her home and garage on Friday (30May14).
Cyrus' 2014 Maserati luxury sedan and an unspecified amount of jewellery was taken from the property, and authorities are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact local police.
Cyrus, who is currently performing on the European leg of her Bangerz world tour, previously fell victim to burglars in December (13), when thousands of dollars of possessions were stolen.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - There was no way. There was just no way the Golden Eagles (33-12) were going to let the East Tennessee State Buccaneers (25-19) shut them out for a second time this season. The Tennessee Tech baseball team made sure of it, defeating the Bucs, 10-6, Wednesday evening.
After falling behind 2-0 after the first inning, it seemed ETSU was destined to once again, shut down the Golden Eagle offense and pitch another shutout. Turns out, no such luck for the Bucs as Brandon Thomasson smacked a screaming line drive over the left field fence in the bottom of the second to set the tone for the rest of the contest. James Abraham tied the game up with a sacrifice fly and the Golden Eagles never looked back after the second inning.
In the bottom of the third, Tech really began to come alive, collecting three straight hits to open the inning. Zach Zarzour, Austin Wulf, and Zach Stephens all recorded singles, and Stephens drove in Zarzour for the first run of the third. Daniel Miles drove in the second run, hitting a sac fly to left center field. After a base hit by Dylan Bosheers, Cookeville native Tevis Sherfield drove in the third run with a single to second base. Abraham finished the scoring in the third with an RBI single to center field.
Stephens added to the Tech lead in the fourth, roping an RBI double to left center field to push the Golden Eagles out from 7-3.
The sixth inning essentially put the game out of reach as Tech put up two runs in a monster way. Following a quick ground out by Stephens, Thomasson connected on a 2-0 fastball, jettisoning it down the left line and way out of sight for his second dinger of the game. Miles stepped to the plate and followed suit, pulverizing his own solo shot to left center field to give the Golden Eagles back-to-back home runs for the fourth time this season. Miles has been a part of each of those instances as two have come with Thomasson and two have come with Bosheers.
The Bucs put three across the board the rest of the contest as the Golden Eagles added one more run to mark their third consecutive game with at least 10 runs. The win marked the 33rd of the season for Tech, putting the team just six away from the single-season program record of 39.
Junior righty Garrett Baugh (4-1) earned his fourth win of the season, tossing five innings while allowing six hits, three earned runs, and no walks. He struck out four ETSU batters.
Thomasson moved to the top of the Ohio Valley Conference home run list, adding his 11th and 12th dingers of the season. Stephens ranks second in the league with 11 moonshots and Daniel Miles is currently tied for third with 10 home runs.
Stephens led the squad with three RBI in the contest, grabbing two hits in five at-bats. Thomasson, Miles, and Abraham all drove in two runs apiece while Zarzour and Thomasson accounted for three runs scored each.
The Golden Eagles will continue their OVC bye week with a two-game stint on the road at Western Carolina. Game one is set for Friday, May 3 with first pitch scheduled for 5 p.m. CDT. Senior ace Tristan Archer will take the hill, in search of his career-high eighth win of the season.

Hmm, Travis playing someone outside of his fire element would be pretty interesting^^. Is J. Michael the same dude who played Dalton in One Piece and Scar in FMA Brotherhood? cause if he is, I would approve of him too. As for Juvia, hmm, who do we know that can be cute and psycho nuts? What are the ol english Higurashi cast doing nowadays?

Higurashi wasn't dubbed by Funi. It dubbed by Geneon Entertainment, and then it was licensed by Funi. Key word: "was." (Which means chances for Higurashi Kai getting a dub have gone down the tubes.)
But if they did happen to dub for this, would Mela Lee make a good Juvia? (Considering who played Rena in Japanese...)

I remember how everyone was clamoring for Johnny Yong Bosch to be in every new Funimation dub, even though I can only count about two or three Funi dubs he was in out of the dozens to hundreds of dubs Funi has done.

At first I wasn't impressed... Nastu just sounded too normal , Lucy sounded too young/teeny and not quite as unique or full of herself as the RAW Lucy did, and Happy like a 6 year old girl and not even close to sounding like a boy, plus the Ayes weren't nearly as good as the RAW kinda like the voice actor didn't quite get how to use them (Happy was all over the place between cute, being humorous, and having an attitude... it felt like whatever high pitched voice the actor could get and didn't care beyond that). At least I was satisfied with the background cast. Aquarius was pretty good though... though she could use even more fest.
Then Lucy started to get pissed and I was like, ok, so she sounds a bit young but that's the right attitude , then Happy stated to get a bit better with the Aye deliveries, though he didn't grow on me as like Lucy did. I'm still not sure about Natsu since I didn't quite feel his crazy rage moments right or his stupidity moments right either. Lucy = B-, Happy = C, Natsu = D-... Over all for the dub C+. Maybe I'm just too much a fan of the RAW voices, since I rate them all as A's (Lucy and Happy A+'s though). At least this English dub was way better then that other one I heard where there was like only 4 actors playing all the roles. That one earned a F- in my books
For a first episode dub it wasn't too bad... though I see that there is lots of room for improvement. Maybe Erza, Gray and the rest of the supporting cast will save the Dub. We knew going in that Funimation would recycle voice actors, so it's stupid to complain about that.

Can't wait to hear Erza around ep 4 (Hawkeye's VA should be so perfect), and Gray and a bunch of the Fairy Tail members next time.
Unrelated but this show still has such a fantastic soundtrack, the BGMs are sooo good

^ Second ep dub
Wow, vast improvement with Lucy, Happy, and especially Natsu. Kudos to the returning voice actors all round.
Now as to the newly introduced cast. Loki, Elfman, and Mirajane where all great to me each sounded like there roles very nicely (though improvement isn't out of the question). Makarov and most of the other supporting cast could use some work but weren't bad either... kinda like how I saw Happy last ep (they're just not quite in the characters heads yet). Makao, Romeo, and Nab weren't bad either...
The voice that was the best IMHO of the new cast I found to be Jerral (Gerard) (runners up would be Loki, Elfman, and Mirajane)... I'm actually kinda looking forward to Tower of Paradise/Heaven arc, especially if he improves in the role like the rest of the cast has. He actually sounds powerful, knowledgeable, yet young too, with a hint of potential evil lurking behind his tone.
The worst of the new cast IMHO would be Gray, but mostly since his tone seemed a bit all over the place and he wasn't quite in in character (kinda like how I viewed Natsu last ep). Though if this ep is any sign he will get a lot better fast.
The biggest shock in the voice was Taurus... I mean the accent was just I won't ruin the surprise of hearing him for the first time any further. Lets just say he should fill his comedic role very nicely

Non-union workers, recipients of business's charity, hired to protest Ritsema
'Bannering': Carpenters Union Outsources Picketing
(Permission to rebroadcast in whole or in part is hereby granted. A courtesy super or CG crediting the Mackinac Center would be appreciated.)
The Mackinac Center discovers that the Michigan Regional Council of Carpenters uses non-union labor to protest a Grand Rapids-area businessman. What's worse, the union has even recruited demonstrators who frequent local homeless shelters, including a shelter which gets help from the very same businessman targeted by the union. Read the full story.
This video follows up on our previous video exposition of "bannering," a new method being deployed by Big Labor bosses who wish to continue exerting their influence over a marketplace where employers, customers and workers have turned sharply against using union labor.

State Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka seems befuddled by the financial mess that's Washington Park, but sadly this is business as usual in the village.
Washington Park hasn't submitted the required financial reports to the comptroller's office for seven years; it has never submitted a tax increment financing report. When Topinka sent an auditor to the village, he came back with nothing. Apparently there are no records at the Village Hall to audit. Treasurer Ricky Thomas said recent years were shredded.
Topinka has called in Attorney General Lisa Madigan: "We can't afford to take chances with public money." Too late.
Madigan probably doesn't have the power to disband the village, but she ought to prosecute all village officials, past and present, who were part of the reckless handling of the public's money.

Chace Crawford Wants Elizabeth Hurley Back On 'Gossip Girl'
Chace's character Nate finally found love on 'Gossip Girl.' but unfortunately that will be a thing of the past next season. Read on for more details!
Nate's (Chace Crawford) love life on Gossip Girl finally appeared like it was going to be stable during its final season, but due to Ella Rae Peck's fate in real life — he's back to being a bachelor.
Ella Rae who played Nate's girlfriend Lola was cast in the NBC pilot Notorious leaving Chace's character Nate without a girlfriend for the final season. And even though nobody knows exactly what the future holds, Chace said he wouldn't mind one character coming back.
"I don't know. I don't even think the writers know yet. But you wouldn't have to twist my arm to get Liz Hurley back on the show," he told HollywoodLife.com exclusively at NYC premiere of Peace, Love & Understanding hosted by Forevermark and The Wall Street Journal.
Uh oh! If we learned anything from season five it's that Elizabeth Hurley's character Diana Payne should stay FAR away from the Upper East Side.
What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Would you like to see Diana Payne return to GG? Weigh in below!

Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia in the
United States. It and related
dementias affect at least 2 million, and possibly as many as 4
million, U.S. residents. Despite its
prevalence, dementia often goes unrecognized or is misdiagnosed
in its early stages. Many
health care professionals, as well as patients and family
members, mistakenly view the early
symptoms of dementia as inevitable consequences of aging.
Some disorders that result in dementia are "reversible or
potentially reversible," which means
that they can be treated effectively to restore normal or nearly
normal intellectual function.
Among the most frequent reversible causes of dementia are
depression, alcohol abuse, and drug
toxicity. In elderly persons, drug use—particularly drug
interactions caused by
"polypharmacy" (simultaneous use of multiple drugs)—is a
common cause of cognitive
decline. Depression also is an underdiagnosed condition in this
The majority of dementias, including Alzheimer's disease, are
considered nonreversible. Even
for these conditions, correct diagnosis of the problem in its
early stages can be beneficial.
Correct recognition can prevent costly and inappropriate
treatment resulting from misdiagnosis,
and give patients and families time to prepare for the
challenging financial, legal, and medical
decisions that may lie ahead. In addition, many of the
nonreversible dementias such as
Alzheimer's disease include symptoms that can be treated
effectively (for example, incontinence,
wandering, depression).
According to the National Institute on Aging, an estimated $90
billion is spent annually for
Alzheimer's disease alone, and the noneconomic toll is
incalculable. Although State and local
governments and the Federal Government bear some of the economic
burden, largely through
Medicare and Medicaid, a substantial proportion is borne by
families that provide unpaid care.
Changes caused by dementia may advance relentlessly over many
years, creating not only deep
emotional and psychological distress but practical problems
related to caregiving that can
overwhelm affected families.
Addressing the Problem
In 1992, the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research, a
Federal Government agency within
the Public Health Service, convened a panel of private-sector
experts to develop a clinical
practice guideline on screening for Alzheimer's disease and
related dementias. This topic was
selected because:

When planning our honeymoon, the very first thing that Troy and I did was to lower our expectations. It became obvious pretty quickly that my fiancé's meager income, as a full-time employee of Barnes and Noble, combined with my miniscule hourly wage as a part-time publicity assistant for a small book publisher, was not going to fund a backpacking tour of Europe or a week long stint in Hawaii at a luxury beach resort. "We have friends willing to rent you their cabin in the Smoky Mountains," offered my dad. "That'll be fine," we decided ready to move on to other more pressing matters regarding silverware patterns and the thread count of our future bed sheets.
It wasn't until the big day got closer, however, that Troy and I both became truly excited about our upcoming trek to North Carolina. With all the stress and wedding preparations behind us, it would feel awesome, we thought, to finally relax and soak in the peacefulness of quiet and nature. What I anticipated, throughout the entire twelve hour drive up there, was to find the winding roads, the dense forests, the isolation, dreamy. I envisioned us reading side-by-side on a porch swing, taking long evening walks and eating by candlelight.
Hot and exhausted, we finally, around dusk, arrived at the cabin - that picture perfect, cedar scented retreat from all of the hustle and bustle of Chicago. Leaving our luggage and empty diet coke cans in the air-conditionless Honda Civic parked out front, we ran eagerly inside for a self-guided tour. It was lovely - quaintly rustic and obviously well taken care of. Out back was a deck with patio furniture. On the walls were family photographs and framed needlepoint samplers. We were alone, far away from traffic, the sound of sirens, other people. I mean, really…no other people were around - no neighbors, no tourists, not a soul within earshot. It was just Troy and me, Troy and me by ourselves, and the sun was going down rapidly.
Wait! Sh-h-h! Did you hear something? Something like a grizzly bear, maybe? Oh how silly! How ridiculous! "Honey, be a dear and go out there in the dark to get our suitcase." My brand new spouse, bless his heart, took a big deep breath, bolted bravely out the door, grabbed our stuff from the trunk and was back inside in seconds. Should we rent Deliverance tonight? He asked facetiously. And then we laughed, but just a little bit because to an urban couple secluded in the woods that sort of a joke is only kind of amusing.
In my fantasies about that once-in-a-lifetime vacation, our first get away as husband and wife, we weren't terrified by all the creepy nocturnal sounds we could hear but not see or interpret, there wasn't a vicious swarm of bees hovering menacingly around my head on our hike by the waterfall, there wasn't a three page long check-list of chores to complete in order to get the cabin ready for it's next renters, we didn't run out of things to talk about and we certainly didn't become so stir-crazy and city starved that we drove all the way to Atlanta where my parents were staying for a conference and spend the night with them in their hotel room. It's remarkable, isn't it? How efficiently reality can rub the luster off our idealism. What you hope for isn't always or, let's face it, isn't usually what you get.
If there is one thing that has dawned on me (slowly but surely) about family life, it's that everything, every situation and experience, should be swallowed with a big old, sobering grain of salt. And though it sounds pessimistic, I can assure you that such pragmatism has saved me on countless occasions from throwing the proverbial baby out with the whining, moody, spit-up-ey, peed through, "gotta leave early because it's nap time" bath water. By assuming all will not go smoothly, I am much less often discouraged and much more likely to appreciate the little victories woven into the over all frenzied existence and pace of being a raiser of children. If you make it out of any errand, vacation or excursion alive, for example, and still speaking to one another, without having to write a check for something that got broken, or to publicly apologize to store employees, other parents or (hypothetically speaking of course) a roomful of patrons at a Bob Evans restaurant for a sticky, syrupy mess your kids made or a high pitched outburst, you can consider that outing a grand success and be thoroughly pleased with your accomplishment.
I believe it is a positive thing that Troy and I have become calloused, by way of multiple blows to our vulnerable agendas, to the biting annoyance of "let-down." My children, however, …well, they don't really get it yet. "How could God let this happen!?" My son, Elijah, once wailed when our anticipated outing to a McDonalds Play Land was foiled by a dead car battery. I can see them writhing internally when unforeseen circumstances bar their pathway to that one item or event they just know will trump all prior gifts, parties, play dates, etc. in terms of coolness and I can empathize with them to a point but tire quickly of the theatrical, sackcloth and ashes reaction we typically see around here when disappointment rears its mean and unjust head. Inevitably, I pull out the old, "Life isn't fair, get used to it," speech, which they never take to heart just as I never processed it when my own mother performed it two decades ago. Patience and long-suffering are only learned, are only earned, the hard way.
It's no secret that I struggled awhile to apply this recently acquired, "You get what you get and you don't throw a fit" approach to Orthodoxy, specifically in regards to our attendance of services. I had to spend approximately 288 Sunday morning liturgies shushing, rocking, nursing, redirecting, wincing, warning and biting my cheek in frustration before I finally accepted that all of those distractions were, for now, necessary for my long term maturation. I'd been a feel good junkie for as long as I could remember and rearing children in the Church did a bang up job of teaching me to separate emotions from discipleship, that Christ's commandment to, "Follow me," meant, "obey," out of love, not chase relentlessly after soul soothing, heart warming validations.
In the dryness of just showing up each week, of exposing my family to the ancient prayers and hymnography of Orthodox Christianity without any guarantee that I, myself, would be able to concentrate or reflect on the mystery of the sacraments, I passed through a more shallow and romanticized belief and into the rigors of unconditional and lasting devotion. It wasn't until I stopped expecting and depending on immediate spiritual gratification that I developed a true and rooted confidence in God's perfect (and often maddening) mercy. It seemed, initially, like motherhood was going to have a stalemating effect on my faith but in all actuality, it instilled courage, groundedness, flexibility, and an unflappability imperative for staying focused in the midst of life's turbulent ups and downs, where before there was only skittishness and doubt.
Every once in awhile (BAM! out of nowhere), I get completely bowled over by an overwhelming sense of Christ's actual presence among us, within us, working through us – like during a pre-sanctified liturgy when I stood tearily in the communion line behind my mother watching her receive the Eucharist or when chills passed down my spine during the Holy Friday reading of the Ezekial passage about the dry bones ("Then you, my people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them." Ezekial 37:13).
I attended our local book club last week made up mostly of women from my parish and right there in my parent's living room could hardly breath so thick and heavy was the sensation of paradise mingling with earth in the honesty and purity of our discussion about life and death, loss and forgiveness. The fact that these satisfying gems of enlightenment are not always tied to my ascetical efforts or attempts at conjuring up a geyser-like gush of giddiness for all things Orthodox, affirms that God's grace is not limited by or contingent on my own failures and successes.
Eleven years ago, I envisioned myself being healed by our conversion and by my giving birth to our first child. In my fantasies about those significant milestones, I'd be freed instantaneously from selfishness, jealousy and insecurity, as one held captive by chains has the potential to be liberated by but a turn of a key. Never did I factor in a prolonged period of intensive training designed to build up my endurance. I've had to relinquish my skewed presumptions about what piety looks like, sounds like and yes, what it feels like, which is often like passing through a hot and stagnant desert dotted with cool and refreshing streams.
It is a hard, demanding, sometimes grueling journey, but one we travel hand-in-hand, carrying each other, encouraging one another, motivated always by the footprints of those who walked before us and stayed the course. My salvation is all wrapped up in this conviction that now is when we toil in preparation for the judgment and resurrection to come. I didn't get what I hoped for (Hallelujah!); I got what I needed, and how rewarding, fulfilling and nourishing is becoming more Christ-like and durable, through the wisdom and compassion of God and His Church, than you ever in your wildest dreams thought possible.

New Advertising Ridiculousness: Pop-Up Downloads
from the how-can-we-trick-you-today? dept
News.com is running an article about the latest trick that advertisers are using to mess with your computer: pop-up download advertising. Here's how it works. Instead of a regular advertisement or pop-up, the "advertisement" pops up a "Do you accept this download?" prompt. Most people, apparently, automatically click yes to such things, and suddenly they're downloading and installing all sorts of crap software that they really don't need or want. It appears that one of the biggest proponents of this is Gator, the same company that used to try to cover up ads on sites you surfed with their own ads. Gator says it's a viable way to expand their business. I always wonder about any business that requires tricking their own users into buying into the service. If you create a really compelling product, you don't need to trick anyone.
