CASE 392 - The history of Thailand
Thailand previously known as Siam has been populated ever since the dawn of civilization in Asia. There are conflicting opinions of the origins of the Thais. It presumed that about 4,500 years. Thais originated in northwestern Szechuan in China and later migrated down to Thailand along the southern part of China. They split into two main groups. One settled down in the North and became the kingdom of "Lanna" and the other one is in further south, which afterward was defeated by the Khmers and became the kingdom of "Sukhothai".
There are conflicting opinions as to the origins of the Thais. Three decades ago it could be said with presumed certainty that the Thais originated in the southern part of what is now China about 4,500 years ago. Recently, however, this theory has been altered by the discovery of prehistoric artifacts in the village of Ban Chiang in the Nong Han District of UdonThani province in the Northeast. From these evidence of bronze metallurgy going back 3,500 years, as well as other indication of a far more sophisticated culture than any previously suspected by archaeologists. It now appears that the Thais might have originated here in Thailand and later scattered to various parts of Asia, including China.
The controversy over the origin of the Thais shows no sign of definite conclusion as many more theories have been put forward and some even go further to say that Thais were originally of Austronesian rather than Mongoloid. What the outcomes of the dispute may be, by the 13th century the Thais had already settled down within the southeast Asia.
Thailand can best be described as tropical and humid for the majority of the country during most of the year. The area of Thailand north of Bangkok has a climate determined by three seasons whilst the southern peninsular region of Thailand has only two.
In northern Thailand the seasons are clearly defined. Between November and May the weather is mostly dry, however this is broken up into the periods November to February and March to May. The later of these two periods has the higher relative temperatures as although the northeast monsoon does not directly effect the northern area of Thailand, it does cause cooling breezes from November to February. The other northern season is from May to November and is dominated by the southwest monsoon, during which time rainfall in the north is at its heaviest.
The southern region of Thailand really has only two seasons -- the wet and the dry. These seasons do not run at the same time on both the east and west side of the peninsular. On the west coast the southwest monsoon brings rain and often heavy storms from April through to October, whilst on the east coast the most rain falls between September and December.
Overall the southern parts of Thailand get by far the most rain with around 2,400 millimeters every year, compared with the central and northern regions of Thailand, both of which get around 1,400 millimeters
Nanchao Period (650-1250 A.D.)
The Thai people founded their kingdom in the southern part of China, which is Yunnan, Kwangsi and Canton today. A great number of people migrated south as far as the Chao Phraya Basin and settled down over the Central Plain under the sovereignty of the Khmer Empire, whose culture they probably accepted. The Thai people founded their independent state of Sukhothai around 1238 A.D., which marks the beginning of the Sukhothai Perio.
:: Sukhothai Period (1238-1378 A.D.)
Thais began to emerge as a dominant force in the region in the13th century, gradually asserting independence from existing Khmer and Mon kingdoms. Called by its rulers "the dawn of happiness", this is often considered the golden era of Thai history, an ideal Thai state in a land of plenty governed by paternal and benevolent kings, the most famous of whom was King Ramkhamhaeng the Great. However in 1350, the mightier state of Ayutthaya exerted its influence over Sukhothai.
:: Ayutthaya Period (1350-1767)
The Ayutthaya kings adopted Khmer cultural influences from the very beginning. No longer the paternal and accessible rulers that the kings of Sukhothai had been, Ayutthaya's sovereigns were absolute monarchs and assumed the title devaraja (god-king). The early part of this period saw Ayutthaya extend its sovereignty over neighboring Thai principalities and come into conflict with its neighbours, During the 17th century, Siam started diplomatic and commercial relations with western countries. In 1767, a Burmese invasion succeeded in capturing Ayutthaya. Despite their overwhelming victory, the Burmese did not retain control of Siam for long. A young general named Phya Taksin and his followers broke through the Burmese and escaped to Chantaburi. Seven months after the fall of Ayutthaya, he and his forces sailed back to the capital and expelled the Burmese occupation garrison.
:: Thon Buri Period (1767-1772)
General Taksin, as he is popularly known, decided to transfer the capital from Ayutthaya to a site nearer to the sea which would facilitate foreign trade, ensure the procurement of arms, and make defense and withdrawal easier in case of a renewed Burmese attack. He established his new capital at Thon Buri on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. The rule of Taksin was not an easy one. The lack of central authority since the fall of Ayutthaya led to the rapid disintegration of the kingdom, and Taksin's reign was spent reuniting the provinces.
:: Rattanakosin Period (1782 - the Present)
After Taksin's death, General Chakri became the first king of the Chakri Dynasty, Rama I, ruling from 1782 to 1809. His first action as king was to transfer the royal capital across the river from Thon Buri to Bangkok and build the Grand Palace. Rama II (1809-1824) continued the restoration begun by his predecessor. King Nang Klao, Rama III (1824-1851) reopened relations with Western nations and developed trade with China. King Mongkut, Rama IV, (1851-1868) of "The King and I" concluded treaties with European countries, avoided colonialization and established modern Thailand. He made many social and economic reforms during his reign.
King Chulalongkorn, Rama V (1869-1910) continued his father's tradition of reform, abolishing slavery and improving the public welfare and administrative system. Compulsory education and other educational reforms were introduced by King Vajiravudh, Rama VI (1910-1925). During the reign of King Prajadhipok, (1925-1935), Thailand changed from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy. The king abdicated in 1933 and was succeeded by his nephew, King Ananda Mahidol (1935-1946). The country's name was changed from Siam to Thailand with the advent of a democratic government in 1939. Our present monarch, King Bhumibol Adulyadej, is King Rama IX of the Chakri Dynasty

As a student of foreign languages I am quite pleased with the amount of reading material here in the library, but it's a bit frustrating when looking for translations of English books into French. I usually stumble upon them by accident, if I'm lucky. There's no way, as far as I'm aware, to look up more modern French novels, specifically the translations into French from the original English. 😦 Reading Sartre and Camus is always nice, but it's essential as a student of languages to keep up with language that is modern.

Blue Letter Bible offers several daily devotional readings in order to help you refocus on Christ and the Gospel of His peace and righteousness.
Recognizing the value of consistent reflection upon the Word of God in order to refocus one's mind and heart upon Christ and His Gospel of peace, we provide several reading plans designed to cover the entire Bible in a year.
|Strong's Number: g5035
|Greek: tachu
the neuter of tachus, "swift, quick," signifies "quickly," Mat 5:25; 28:7, 8; Mar 9:39, RV (AV, "lightly"); Luk 15:22; Jhn 11:29; Rev 2:16 (ver. 5 in some mss.); 3:11; 11:14; 22:7, 12, 20.
See LIGHTLY.
|Strong's Number: g5032
|Greek: tacheion
the comparative degree of No. 1, is translated "quickly" in Jhn 13:27; "out(ran)" in Jhn 20:4, RV, lit., "(ran before) more quickly (than Peter);" "shortly" in 1Ti 3:14; Hbr 13:23; in Hbr 13:19, "(the) sooner."
See SHORTLY.
|Strong's Number: g5030
|Greek: tacheos
akin to No. 1, is translated "quickly" in Luk 14:21; 16:6; Jhn 11:31, RV; "shortly" in 1Cr 4:19; Phl 2:19, 24; 2Ti 4:9; with a suggestion of rashness in the following, Gal 1:6, RV, "quickly" (AV, "soon"); 2Th 2:2; and 1Ti 5:22, "hastily," (AV, "suddenly").
See HASTILY, C.
lit., "in, or with, swiftness, with speed" (en, "in," and the dative case of tachos, "speed"), is translated "quickly" in Act 12:7; 22:18; "speedily" in Luk 18:8; "shortly" in Act 25:4; Rom 16:20; 1Ti 3:14 in some texts; Rev 1:1; 22:6. In the last two places, "with speed" is probably the meaning.
See SHORTLY, SPEEDILY.

Corn Prices are rising, and the sky is falling!
In what seems to be the new trend, magazines and blogs all over are falling prey to the hype that ethanol is going to make food so costly that we're all going to end up starving.
To add a little more common sense to the panic stream, a very well written article at The Ethicurean on "Who wins, and who whines, when corn prices rise" gives a little more perspective to a growing panic.
So if you're worried about the pending increase in food costs, you should read this article. With everything, there is always two sides to the story and its best to know all sides.
As for me, since I don't eat corn-fed or corn-derived products.. I really don't see this impacting me a whole lot, unless everyone starts buying up all the grass-fed meats and leaving me none. :)

"I just wanted to say a big thanks to Tess Presso for her support.
Social Media has a big influence in today's society, and as a new business owner it's important that we utilize it that to promote ourselves.
Tess's passion for coffee has cultivated a strong following on her social media platforms, and her generous acts of kindness towards people in the industry has earned her a good reputation, and much respect.
Her one post immediately exposed our cafe to her 29,000+ followers, and since then we have had many others who share the same passion for coffee walk through our doors.
We appreciate that Tess took the time to visit our cafe, get to know us as people, and quickly discovered exactly what we stand for."

We moved about 6 miles from my Granny and I went to a different school. I went there 2 years. I was in the 7th and 8th grade. I loved to sing so when our music teacher told us that we could sing at our play in the 7th grade... well I said I would sing. I can still remember going to the mic and singing "Satisfied Mind". lol I have a very strong voice. I sang a couple of lines with the mic and then stepped away from it and sang the rest. lol The kids laughed and I laughed too. Everything went real well and the kids applauded for me.
The next year, 8th grade... my music teacher got a hold of me and said she wanted me to sing!! She played the piano for me. She wanted me to sing "Tumbling Tumble Weeds" !! I told her that the music was too high for me. She said that she would lower it for me. I did fine through practice. Well the day that I sang on stage I think she raised the song!! I was nervous because the lights were on in the auditorium. I don't think the lights were on the year before. I could see all them kids out there watching me!! The first words of Tumbling Tumble Weeds is... "I'm a roaming cowboy"!! Of course all the kids laughed!! I thought they were laughing at me. To make things worse... my voice went into a high pitch sound! I ran off of the stage crying. My best friend went with me. I was in the bathroom crying so hard when my 8th grade English teacher came in to see about me. Mrs. White. She wore glasses and I remember her even crying with me. She hugged me and told me that she was going to get permission for me to sing in her play. Oh No!!! No way was I ever going to sing again!! Never!! She said.. Yes you are. I will put a spot light on you and you will not be able to see the people in the audience.
She got permission for me to leave my class for play practice. Our play was "Oklahoma". The song that I sang was "Red River Valley". She had about 4 boys sitting around a fake campfire day dreaming about their sweetheart back home. She had a spot light on me... and I kind of walked behind them. The play took first in Junior High and we did the play for parents and everyone. Thinking back now I could just kick myself for not trying to find this teacher!! What she did for me was unbelievable.

Are you flying Delta this month? I sure hope so.
If you do, check out the Delta Sky magazine in the seat pocket in front of you. You'll find a 42-page special section on Detroit that starts out "From Motown roots to automotive expertise, Detroit has helped move America forward for over a century." It's a great opportunity for you and the estimated 1.3 million people flying Delta Airlines in February to read stories about the Detroit region's revitalization.
If you're not taking to the skies you can download a PDF of the Profile: Detroit section here or view the entire February issue by clicking here.
You'll read about Detroit's people, arts, businesses, sports teams, entertainment, music, universities, architecture and more. It's all about the transformation momentum our region is experiencing as it embraces and supports entrepreneurs, embraces its waterways and position as a transportation hub and diversifies its industries while looking with confidence at the auto industries revival.
You'll find out how playing for the Pistons helped prepare Dave Bing for his role as Mayor of Detroit …Jeff Daniels' favorite places to eat in Detroit …that Lion's defense tackle Ndamukong Suh says Detroit is unlike any other place he knows. It really embraces its athletes and itself and its surroundings. There's a real sense of pride
Detroit native and host of the hit TV show Judge Greg Mathis talks about his favorite place to eat … Flood's Bar and Grille in downtown Detroit. He's been going there for 25 years. It's where a lot of the professionals and political types hang out after work.
Cindy Pasky, chair of the Downtown Detroit Partnership and president of Strategic Staffing Solutions (and the Hub's board chair) talks about how Detroit's grittiness makes us unique and how good we can be at removing the barriers and sharpening the pencils.
It's fitting these stories should appear in the Delta magazine. Two of its past slogan's could be used for Detroit.
"We're ready when you are" and the "Cities (airlines) are the same; only people make the difference."

About UniteSF
In the mid-1990's The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce – chaired by Mr. Charles Schwab and Vice Chairman Lawrence J. Stupski – led the effort for business engagement in education. Through partnership with Schwab's "School-to Career program," and in partnership with the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD), the Chamber recognized the significant need for business to lead the charge in supporting youth development.
With the hire of current President and CEO Bob Linscheid in 2012, the Chamber began a new era of intertwining business and education. With nine years of experience serving on the Board of Trustees for the California State University system, Bob has a deep understanding of the important role education and strong workforce development has on the health of the community and economy. Almost at the same time as the hire of Bob Linscheid, the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) and Board of Education began Vision2025 – a process of looking at how SFUSD would prepare their graduates to live, thrive and succeed in San Francisco and beyond. Along with a number of other key factors for success, knowledge and experience to navigate the "real world" and solve problems from the workforce were identified as necessary traits SFUSD students needed to possess upon graduating. Business engagement is integral to this accomplishment.
The Vision 2025 process, interest and support from the President of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, and the growing demand for highly skilled workers and the incredible surge of technology, health, and innovative companies based in the San Francisco Bay Area, all served as the needed catalyst for business reengagement in education. The Chamber took the lead on outreach and engagement to Mayor Edwin Lee and Superintendent Richard Carranza to propose a collective impact project, serving as a unifying voice for education in San Francisco. Modeled on similar successful approaches in Los Angeles (LA Compact/UniteLA serving as an advisor to the SF Chamber), Boston (Boston PIC), and Cleveland (STRIVE), the Chamber proposed UniteSF for San Francisco.
Statement of Need
There are numerous entities in San Francisco running workforce development or education programs including non-profits, City departments and for-profit businesses. In addition, although there are a number of cross-sector partnerships they are not formalized or connected to each other, making it difficult for the business community to navigate numerous requests for support in terms of funding and work based learning opportunities for youth. The Mayor, the Chamber and the Mayor's Education Council (which includes the Superintendent of the San Francisco Unified School District and Chancellors and Presidents of Higher Education institutions in San Francisco) have agreed to establish a set of collective impact goals, creating new and improved ways for parties to collaborate and be impactful.
UniteSF represents a unified commitment by key San Francisco business, civic, and education leaders to support collaborative change in our approach to student's preparation for college and the 21st century global workplace. Through discussion, convening, and data sharing, UniteSF supports the belief that:
- 100% High School Graduate for all San Francisco Students is necessary and possible
- That upon graduation, every student will be prepared for college or skilled certificate programs and has the access and support necessary to achieve higher education
- All students must have pathways to sustainable jobs and careers
To improve educational and career success for every child in San Francisco by bringing together cross-sector partners united around common goals.

As I mentioned. Forget Xs and Os. We just gotta be dawgs. We're better than anyone we'll play. Just gotta let em know
January 13th, 2013 at 7:19 PM ^
Let's leave the dawgs thing to MSU.
January 13th, 2013 at 11:24 PM ^
actually, I think izzo's biggest weakness is that he doesn't let is players play. What I like about Belein is he seems to let he players play.
The original thought is right; playcalling matters but sometimes you just gotta trust the athleticism and let the dawgs out like it's 1996
January 13th, 2013 at 7:08 PM ^
Will trade a loss to Ohio today for a big ten title. Will trade Lewan coming back for Webb not coming at all. Gained an O-line Commit. Still have a great shot for the #1 back in his class. Its time for a Champagne of Beers.
January 13th, 2013 at 9:32 PM ^
I wasn't feeling bad, I thought that perhaps I should feel guilty. I did have a New Belgian Snow Day, but only because they taste good, not because I needed to drown anything.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:11 PM ^
waiting until I can take some more hydrocodone in an hour or two. Also about to eat some pulled pork, coleslaw, spicy pickles, baked beans and potato salad. I'll probably switch to Dr. Pepper for dinner.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:13 PM ^
Why are taking the good stuff?
January 13th, 2013 at 7:22 PM ^
I tore a piece of my lateral meniscus in my left knee the night before the Nebraska (football) game, and finally got it fixed on Friday.
Thankfully it seems like I'll only be on these pills for a few more days, then I can start getting back to working out and walking normally (and beer, of course).
January 13th, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
Funny my dad is tougher than your dad story. My father had some cartilage cleaned up in his knee recently and I was asking him how it felt. He goes on to tell me that he doesn't have an ACL in either knee because injuries sustained in an old timers football game 35 yrs ago when high schools still has those. I asked him why he never looked into getting them fixed and he said," I had to work." I was floored
January 13th, 2013 at 7:34 PM ^
It's weird to me that people can have those not intact and still be pretty much fine. Maybe I'm just squeamish when it comes to medical stuff, but thinking about having an unhealed tendon tear in both knees just sicks me out.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:13 PM ^
Coffee. Can't do anything but study until finals are done next Friday. Lame.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:23 PM ^
Where do you go to university that has finals in mid-to-late January?
January 13th, 2013 at 8:02 PM ^
Rosalind Franklin University, near Chicago. I'm a medical student, and our classes don't always end at the end of a "quarter", though our next quarter does end in four weeks. Two classes end this week, so I've got two cumulative finals looming.
January 13th, 2013 at 11:45 PM ^
I graduated med school from there last year. Finals were brutal, but the MD at the end is definitely worth it.
I always thought that if we had a sports team, the fighting helices would be the best mascot ever
January 13th, 2013 at 7:26 PM ^
so I am cooking up some Mexican-themed venison chili. Will probably eat that with a Pino Grigio from California. Then it is Calculus and a Molson Canadian if I am feeling lucky.
Faith not shaken. Go Blue forever.

Hope for the future though
So Michigan loses in the Outback Bowl to an SEC team with their second year coach, ending a disappointing season with 8 wins. Denver looks like a Super Bowl team with home field advantage, a second year coach and a stellar 36 year old qb only to lose by 3 in the divisional round. What year does this happen?
1996 and 2012
The next year - 1997 - Michigan wins the national championship and Denver wins the Super Bowl. Coincidence, I think not.
Also I'm drinking Sweet tea today
January 13th, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
Just an fyi, everyone in Indy is a Bronco fan!
January 13th, 2013 at 7:17 PM ^
Our football team is on the right track and we don't lose to teams like Toledo anymore. Oh and our basketball team is top 5, it has been worse for us in both sports.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:17 PM ^
I may be alone on this but I feel pretty good about winning the Big Ten after today. Drinking milk btw
January 13th, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
The better news: There's still two (three? :D) months of basketball left
January 13th, 2013 at 7:34 PM ^
I was all bummed. But then I remembered I have alcohol. I will be happy now, and bummed tomorrow morining.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:36 PM ^
I am enjoying a Samuel Adams Alpine Spring after a dinner which involved marinated tip steaks, white asparagus and roasted red potatoes. It was quite delicious and definitely helped brighten the mood (I made it, so I am in no way biased). As for today, any loss to Ohio State stings, but I will definitely take 16-1 with 14 games left and none in which we cannot compete - it's an excellent problem to have.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:47 PM ^
I was pretty bummed, as well. In fact, irate.
Then I remembered that Michigan is a Top 20 academic institution and Ohio St is the equivalent to a regional trucking school.
It will always be great to be a Michigan Wolverine.
Now back to the boozin'!
January 13th, 2013 at 7:53 PM ^
To make things worse I've got firecracker shits from the Szechuan chicken I ordered earlier. General tso wouldn't have done me like this. I'm sorry I cheated on you general.
January 13th, 2013 at 7:56 PM ^
this is pretty much unrelated but did anyone else notice how well spike albrecht played? he had 7 points and was very poised.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:08 PM ^
Hopefully a solid four year player that keeps some consistency at guard
January 13th, 2013 at 8:15 PM ^
I have missed Hopslam...biter, biting, ten percent...delicious Hopslam
January 13th, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
My favorite beer ever. It's one of the things I miss most about Michigan. I'm thinking about stopping home on a road trip to buy a couple of cases.
January 13th, 2013 at 9:05 PM ^
Sadly, Hopslam seems to be all but gone. My local beer place sold out in less than 48 hours. I've checked around to a few other places and it seems I am too late.
January 13th, 2013 at 9:43 PM ^
That reminds me. Beer Baron, I'll see you tomorrow. Please have it in stock.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:15 PM ^
Shot and a beer at the Denver Airport. Missed the 2nd playoff game but I guess I didn't miss much. Anyone want to make some guesses for the Super Bowl? I think it is going to be 49ers-Ravens in a Harbaugh-off, with Jim getting the best of John 34-24.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:17 PM ^
Nobody goes undefeated anymore. This loss takes a lot of pressure off, and introduced the freshmen to rivalry games, Big Ten style. Now, they won't get blindsided when they play Sparty. JB gets to do a lot of teaching, and gets to adjust to what appeared to be some pretty good tweaks by Ohio.
Besides, after all of Ohio's histrionics, Michigan nearly pulled this game out. They are already adjusting to Ohio's adjustments. This team will be there when it counts.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:20 PM ^
Brady Hoke is going to visit Derrick Green tomorrow. No doubt a positive for us during the final push. I will take Green and Lewan's return over Webb and a 3-point, road, conference loss, to a ranked team any day. I wish we had more situations like this to "comiserate" over.
Never the less, I'm drinking an Iron City.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:31 PM ^
Dogfishhead Theobroma...one of their 'Ancient Ale' line where they do a reconstruction of ancient beers from chemical analysis of pottery shards. This is Aztec..chocolate with a bit of chiles.
9% ABV...perfect while watching Tom Brady going to the AFC Championship game again...
January 13th, 2013 at 8:40 PM ^
Nothing to be sad about in all reality. Have a Top-5 Men's basketball team who tied the best start in program history, and a Women's basketball team who is off to their best start in program history at 14-2 and 3-0 in B1G play.
Yes, that is a combined 30-3 for Michigan Basketball. That has never happened.
And some food for thought, that 1989 National Championship team lost 9 games (one of them to a D2 Alaska-Anchorage Seawolves team) and didn't win the B1G. But still won the one that mattered most.
With baseball, softball & lacrosse season less than a month away, it's about to get really fun.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:57 PM ^
Rice and Palin hooked up on that trip. True story.
January 13th, 2013 at 9:20 PM ^
I think you mean the year before when Michigan played up in Anchorage in the 1987 Great Alaska Shootout.
The game they lost to Alaska-Anchorage was the following year in the Utah Basketball Classic in Salt Lake City.
January 14th, 2013 at 12:13 AM ^
Why did you bring that crap up?
Was DogFishheading----Just dumped a perfectly good 90 Minute IPA.
Please tell me that you meant Condoleezza... that would be so much more appropriate.
January 13th, 2013 at 8:58 PM ^
No drinks for me unfortunately, going to bed early since I'm pulling a 24 hr shift tomorrow. Went through a Shiner Bock variety six pack yesterday which was surprisingly delicious.
January 13th, 2013 at 9:09 PM ^
Drinking tap water. I was only able to watch the first ten minutes of so of the game, so I am buoyed by the way the young Michigan team was able to claw its way back from such a huge deficit in a hostile environment to a really good team.

The Sunday morning worship experience begins at 9:30. The average dress is business casual, though some people dress up more and others dress down! As you come in, you will receive a bulletin or program, which has the order of worship and announcements. The worship experience begins with a gathering song, which gives us notice to change from chatting and greeting, to being in place to worship. Usually, there is poetry or scripture to help us transition into being aware of God's presence. Singing helps with that also.
We share an offering of time and talents. One is a time to share about possible ministries in which to be active throughout the week. The other is a time to share our tithes (10% of income) and offerings (any gifts above the tithe) with God. Guests are not expected to contribute to the offering baskets; that is the privilege of members. The children have a story before the pre-schoolers go downstairs for their children's church experience.
Sometimes, to set the mood for the message, there is a drama or some special music. Then, the weekly Bible passage is read. Our pastor or a guest speaker looks at the meaning in the scripture, explains it, and applies it to daily life. There is usually a song following the message, but sometimes we offer special things like communion, an opportunity to be anointed for healing, or quiet time.
We share together our prayer concerns and joys in answered prayer, and have a time of prayer together as a group. We usually end the service with a song and a challenge or blessing…time to say hello to friends or go quietly to Sunday School or home! Our music is from the 1400s to the 2000s, so there is a wide variety. You can learn the songs as you go. The whole service is informal.
We say that the bulletin is just our best guess at what might happen on any given Sunday. We do ask for silence so that others can hear and there is a nursery and junior church so that parents can participate better.
The worship service lasts anywhere from 60 to 75 minutes.

Sleepwalkers (Reviewed by Lisa Marie Bowman)
So, last night, I was looking for something to watch and I came across Sleepwalkers, a horror film from 1992. And you know what? I could sit here and I could get all snarky about Sleepwalkers and I could be hypercritical and all that other stuff. It's tempting because the film was written by Stephen King […]

SWOT Analysis
SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.
Enhanced SWOT Analysis
Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:
- How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
- How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
- How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?
Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.
PESTEL Analysis
PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.
Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.
Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:
- Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations' impact on the business?
- Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence's degree?
- Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business's products and operations?
- Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
- Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
- Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?
IFE, EFE, IE Matrices
The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business's functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.
The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.
The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.
Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.
Porter Five Forces Analysis
The Porter's five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:
- What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
- Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
- What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
- How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
- How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?
VRIO Analysis
VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company's resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:
- Tangible resources
- Financial
- Physical
- Technological
- Organizational
- Intangible resources
- Human
- Innovation and Creativity
- Reputation
- Organizational capabilities
The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company's competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:
- Valuable?
- Rare?
- Costly to imitate?
- Organized properly?

Culham Centre for Fusion Energy is the home of two of the world's leading tokamaks; the Joint European Torus and the Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak. To ensure that both machines can provide world class physics research, and continue to do so for many years, CCFE has to take its responsibilities towards the safety of the machines, its employees and the surrounding environment very seriously. Overseeing most of the safety processes on site is the Site Safety Working Party, known as the SSWP.
As one of the secretaries for the SSWP I get a unique insight into the workings of the committee and the dedication to safety shown at Culham. The SSWP is made up of representatives from many different departments; from health physics to central engineering, as well as off-site safety experts. This gives the committee a wide range of experience and professional knowledge to draw upon when reviewing the safety practices of the various departments and facilities. Every month the SSWP meets to review safety forward action plans for the various facilities, renew a holders Authority to Operate (ATO) for a facility and comment on the safety aspects of the many modifications made to the equipment and experiments on site. To ensure the meetings are not all work and no play CCFE provides cake.
One of the most interesting duties of the SSWP, at least from the secretaries' point of view, is touring the ATO areas as part of the ATO renewal process. These tours are an excellent opportunity to see parts of the CCFE site outside my normal working routine, and to directly see the importance of a good safety culture. One example that stands out is the tour of the Active Drain & Trade Effluent facility. This facility is on the edge of site, so far out in fact I didn't even know it existed until the tour. Here all of the trade waste and mildly tritiated water is stored before being safely removed. While on the tour it was explained to us the care that is taken to dilute down the tritium to levels far below acceptable levels set by the government. It was great to see how importantly CCFE took its responsibility to protect the environment. And the environment seemed to agree heartily, as one of the trade effluent tanks was playing host to a family of ducks.
When one is asked to explain the advantages of fusion over other energy sources one of the most quoted is the small amount of radioactive waste produced as opposed to fission reactors. No radioactive by-products like caesium-137 are produced in the fusion reactions on JET and MAST, just helium and high energy neutrons. The only radioactive products are materials activated by these neutrons, for example the carbon composite tiles removed during a recent JET upgrade. As with all other safety concerns on site CCFE takes the risk these active components pose very seriously. The components are stored in containers and only once the activity has fallen below very strict safety limits can the materials be disposed of.
Acting as SSWP secretary has given me the opportunity to experience aspects of CCFE outside my day-to-day job. These are the sorts of opportunities that are abundant at CCFE; from the graduate scheme to fusion outreach. And, did I mention there is cake?

I could write pages upon pages about how awful my day was and how angry I felt. I could tell you about my struggle to pray through it even as my stomach was burning and my hands were shaking.
But, I'd rather tell you how the people who love me best were angry on my behalf and it made me feel championed even though there was nothing any of them could do.
And, I'd rather tell you that when the thought of going home and cooking dinner was too much and all I wanted was a baked potato, though I hadn't said a word about it, when I went to pick up Bruce after work, he gave me a hug and said, "I thought I'd buy you dinner tonight. You deserve it. How about a potato at McAlister's?"
That fed my soul.

I let her know how worried I had been not to hear back from her. The next morning she came into my bedroom and said, "Mom, I wasn't really at the movies last night. I was at a kickback." For those parents who haven't heard, it's basically a casual party with a bunch of teenagers "kickin' back." Original, huh?
We live in a mostly peaceful, fairly suburban wedge of a pretty large and sometimes very tough city. I knew that raising my kids in a diverse setting meant they'd encounter situations that required skill to maneuver. I needed to make sure they could make good decisions on their own.
So, starting when my children were in preschool, we've been playing a game in which I would describe a situation, then ask whether it was a health or safety issue.
Can you eat a pile of candy for dinner? No, sorry, this is a health issue.
Can you cross the street without holding my hand? Sometimes, depending on how busy the street is.
Any issue that fell outside the bounds of health or safety was one they were entitled to decide for themselves.
Can you go to school with your hair in knots and unbrushed? Sure, if your fashion sense is to look horrible, so be it!
These are my parenting parameters — these rules determine when I step in and when I lean back. So when my daughter told me that she had lied about the kickback, I went back to that rubric of health and safety. I calmly explained to her, "Sweetie, if I don't know where you are, I can't keep you safe. And that can create a dangerous situation."
I ran a few scenarios by her: What would've happened if the party had gotten rough? Or if you started to feel sick? Because of the lie, you might've felt hesitant to call me and ask for help. This is a safety issue.
I did not shame or interrogate her — I also told her that while I consider her "very smart and capable," life can deliver curveballs, and I want to help her catch them. She agreed to always tell me exactly where she was going, including the address, in the future.
I told a friend of mine, who is also the mother of a teenager, what went down. She asked me repeatedly why I didn't punish my daughter for lying. The thought hadn't occurred to me. My focus was on keeping the lines of communication open.
Subconsciously I must've felt that harsh discipline would give her reason to shut me out and lie again to get back at me; I wanted her to learn to make her own decisions and always come to me when those decisions were difficult.
Teenagers need to individuate from their parents and test out their own theories, rules, and values. But how do we make a space for individuation while keeping them safe?
According to Advocates for Youth: "A major study showed that adolescents who reported feeling connected to parents and their family were more likely than other teens to delay initiating sexual intercourse. Teens who said their families were warm and caring also reported less marijuana use and less emotional distress than their peers. … When parents and youth have good communication, along with appropriate firmness, studies have shown youth report less depression and anxiety and more self-reliance and self-esteem."
If we want our kids to talk to us about all their challenges — including sex, drugs, and situations in which they might feel preyed upon — and we want to impart our wisdom to open ears, we must work on making communication a two-way street.

Premier League: 4 FanDuel Value Plays for Matchweek 15
Another set of fixtures is on tap this weekend in the Premier League with most teams in action on Saturday. FanDuel will have a seven-game slate that features a top-four battle and a couple matches that will impact the relegation zone.
|Matchweek 15
|Saturday, December 2nd
|Tottenham at Watford
|Crystal Palace at West Brom
|Swansea City at Stoke
|Liverpool at Brighton
|Burnley at Leicester City
|Huddersfield at Everton
|Manchester United at Arsenal
Prices are down on average from the midweek matches. Alexis Sanchez, Mohamed Salah, and Harry Kane are all priced at $12,000 this weekend to lead the high-priced studs. Only 11 other forwards or midfielders are priced at or above $9,000.
The defenders are more grouped this weekend with over 30 players priced at or above $6,000. Ashley Young and Christopher Schindler lead the way at $7,500.
As usual, the keepers are bunched up with only $1,000 between all expected starters.
Hal Robson-Kanu ($7,000): Alan Pardew will be at the helm for his first game as manager with West Brom, and Robson-Kanu's goal in the previous match should help him stay on the pitch under the new boss.
Robson-Kanu's goal was an easy header off a beautiful cross from Kieran Gibbs. He finished the game with more than 30 FanDuel points, his highest total of the season. His efforts included three fouls drawn and three shots on goal.
West Brom will face Palace, one of Pardew's old teams, on Saturday. Palace are ranked as one of the worst defensive teams in the league. The Eagles have allowed 25 goals, third-worst in the league.
Be sure to pay attention to the team news for West Brom under Pardew. Palace is a weak defensive team, and no West Brom striker is priced above $7,500, so there is value in the position regardless of who starts for the Baggies.
Roberto Pereyra ($4,500): Pereyra came on for Will Hughes in Watford's loss to Manchester United after Hughes suffered a hamstring injury. Pereyra has been eased back into action after his own hamstring problem, but injuries should force him into the starting XI against Tottenham on Saturday.
Pereyra and Watford may be catching the Spurs at the right time as Tottenham have lost their last three away games. Meanwhile, Watford have scored at least two goals in eight of their last nine matches and sit just three points behind Tottenham.

— Joe Prince-Wright (@JPW_NBCSports) October 21, 2017
Pereyra has not had a lot of time on the pitch this season, although his best game came against Chelsea, showing that he can perform against big-name teams. Last season he made 13 appearances, putting more effort into the offensive side of the ball. He scored 2 goals but had a 44% shot accuracy rating to go along with pass success rate of 83%.
Offense is his game, so he will show his confidence on the ball. However, he will have to do some work defensively versus Spurs. As Tottenham showed against Leicester, despite the loss, they can dominate the ball, forcing the opponent to put most of their team around their own box. Spurs average 58% of possession, so Pereyra will need to win the ball to keep Watford's average at 50%.
Mason Holgate ($4,500): Holgate and Everton came away with a clean-sheet victory in the middle of the week (with new manager Sam Allardyce watching from the stands), placing some distance between them and the drop zone. Holgate is expected to start in the right center back role this weekend as they face a Huddersfield team also in the bottom half of the table.
The teams are even on points, but Huddersfield have failed to score in their last six away matches. It is now 551 minutes since Huddersfield scored a goal on the road.
Holgate may only be starting because of the extensive Everton injury list, but he is averaging close to 19 FanDuel points per game.
Lee Grant ($4,500): Stoke's top-choice keeper Jack Butland is still out, so Grant will get another shot between the posts. Grant will face a Swansea team that have failed to score in their last four Premier League matches.
As is normally the case with the keepers being bunched so closely in pricing, it is best to look for a keeper with a good shot at a clean sheet. Even though Stoke have given up the second-most goals this season, they are facing the team that has scored the fewest goals. Swansea is out of sorts and manager Paul Clement is grasping at straws to find the answer.
Stoke are unbeaten against Swansea in all six Premier League matches at bet365 Stadium. Grant and Stoke can silence the Swans and continue their downward spiral.

Despite what your older brother told you, "gourd head" is not a compliment. When gourds are mature, they are hard skinned with a few seeds rattling around inside. Certainly no compliment there. However, gourds are attractive to use as decorations throughout autumn. By caring for gourds properly, they can last several months.
Two commonly grown gourd groups are ornamental gourds and utility gourds. Ornamental gourds have extremely variable shapes, textures and colors of orange, yellow, white and green. Ornamentals include nest egg, crown-of-thorns and turk's turban gourds.
Utility gourds have a hard thick shell and include dipper, bottle and trumpet gourds. Utility gourds are very durable and have been used throughout history for bowls, dippers, birdhouses and musical instruments.
Gourds will last longer if they are mature when harvested and kept dry. Ornamental gourds can be harvested once their stem turns brown and the tendrils next to the stem dry. Utility gourds usually take longer to mature and are left on the vine as long as possible or until frost kills the vine.
Ornamental gourds will develop a hard, glossy, brightly colored shell. Utility gourds develop hard shells and may begin to change from green to lighter, slightly yellow shades. The stem should be very tough and necks on long handled types should be stiff. Harvest with 1 to 2 inches of stem attached.
Handle gourds as carefully as possible. Bruises, scratches and punctures can result in deterioration. After harvest, wash gourds in a one-quart water to a half cup bleach solution.
Cure in a 75-degree dry room on racks. After curing, ornamental gourds can be rubbed with a water base wax to brighten the colors.
Utility gourds may take four to six weeks of curing in order to dry completely. Before decorating make sure the gourd is thoroughly dry. If the gourds are to be painted, the skin should be removed and a coat of shellac should be applied first, so the skin does not absorb the paint.
Luffa gourds are often used as bath sponges and are harvested after a hard frost. To remove the outer skin of the luffa, two luffas can be rubbed together (sorry no genie will appear to wash your back) or soak luffas in water for a few days until the outer covering can be peeled off. Thoroughly rinse to remove any remaining pulp or seeds. To get a whiter color, luffas can be soaked in bleach or hydrogen peroxide or hung in the sun.
Pumpkins are closely related to gourds and therefore require similar care. Pumpkins can be harvested whenever they have a deep solid, usually orange color, and the rind is hard. Harvest before heavy frosts. Be sure to leave 3 to 4 inches of stem attached.
Pumpkins without stems, not fully mature, injured or subjected to heavy frost do not keep well. Pumpkins that are decorated by paint and not carved will last longer. Store pumpkins in a dry place at 50 to 55 degrees F before use.
About the Author Sandra Mason is a unit-based horticulture educator with University of Illinois Extension. She provides leadership and expertise in horticulture and environmental programs in Champaign County. Mason uses her expertise in ornamental horticulture to educate the public through workshops and other educational programs including the Master Gardener's Program. Mason appears on a call-in program on a monthly basis for the WILL radio program, Focus 580 and is a regular panelist on the WILL television program, Illinois Gardener. It airs Thursdays at 7pm.

Codnor CC beat Alfreton CC II by 50 runs after their bowlers ripped through their opponents.
Codnor had their bowlers to thank as they chalked up their first win of the campaign against newly-promoted Alfreton despite only make 146.
On a wet and miserable day, where only one other game in the league was completed, the away side won the toss and unsurprisingly asked the hosts to take first knock.
A decent opening stand of 31 by openers Colson and Vincent was disrupted when Colson hit a full toss straight down mid-wicket's throat, and Vincent followed soon after with almost a carbon copy of the first wicket.
Anderson, A.Wood and then Jack Melbourne all got out cheaply too, leaving the score on a perilous 60-5.
Leo and Colledge set about building a decent partnership, before the former was bowled by Bexton.
This brought Jones to the crease, but yet again the home side lost a wicket cheaply as Colledge was bowled by Bexton for a top scoring 36.
James Melbourne followed soon after, and with the score 114-8, it looked like it might end up being a walkover for the away side.
Nothing is set in stone with cricket though, and Jones, with captain Ben Wood playing a supporting role took the attack to the Alfreton bowlers and shared a crucial tailend partnership that took the score from very poor to a below-par, yet defendable 146.
The home side set about trying to defend their total. Leo and Bonsall opened, and whilst the latter struggled slightly finding his range, the former continued his good form from last week and got his first victim almost immediately as he trapped Aspinall LBW.
A few loose balls from either end saw Clarke hit multiple boundaries to briskly make his way to 21, but it was Leo again who stopped him in his tracks, again trapping the opener LBW.
With Bonsall not finding his range, Wood made the change to bring himself on, and it proved dividends as he took two wickets in his first over.
His next bowling change also proved to be timely, as James Melbourne replaced Leo and immediately took two wickets in his first over too.
A brief fightback from the away side, led by Pawelski left the match in the balance.
But Wood made another inspired bowling change, bringing Colledge on for Melbourne, who finished up with 2-13 off his five overs.
Colledge immediately took the wicket of Noonan, whilst Wood trapped Briggs LBW to leave Pawelski running out of partners.
So when Wood took his fourth scalp with the all-important wicket of Pawelski, the end was nigh.
It was only a matter of time before the tail was cleaned up, and Colledge did the honours by bowling Robbins for 5, leaving the away side 96ao. Wood was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 4-29 off his 10 overs.
The first team travel to local rivals and promotion candidates Marehay on Saturday as they look to build on this first win.

So the European Commission has announced today that the United Kingdom will not be eligible to put forward a European Capital Of Culture for 2023, coming up with the usual waffle-filled, limp-wrested bollocks that this bunch of unelected bureaucrats has become famous for.
Their statement read:
"As one of the many concrete consequences of its decision to leave the European Union by 29 March 2019, the UK cannot host the European Capital of Culture in 2023.
"According to the rules adopted by the European Parliament and the Council (Decision 445/2014), this action is not open to third countries except candidate countries and European Free Trade Association/European Economic Area countries.
"Given that the UK will have left the EU by 29 March 2019, and therefore be unable to host the European Capital of Culture in 2023, we believe it makes common sense to discontinue the selection process now."
You can almost smell the bovine excrement here.
The problem apparently is that nothing has been arranged yet in terms of our post-Brexit relationship with the European Union, Free Trade Area or whatever, and so there is no guarantee that we will be in an eligible position to enter this arty-farty Guardian-worshipping luvvie-fest in 2023.
Of course there wouldn't be a fucking delay if the EU's top brass got it into their thick skulls that THEY are the ones who are holding up the whole process with their constant refusals to discuss trade specifics because we are not bending over and taking it firmly in the arse in terms of a financial settlement.
Never mind eh. How about you take your European Capital Of Culture and stick it right up your Juncker where it belongs.
Give Nigel Farage a knighthood NOW you ungrateful bastards
Why the hell doesn't Nigel Farage have the word 'Sir' in front of his name by now?
I'll tell you why. It's nothing to do with 'fear' or 'political correctness.' The fact remains that the establishment is ungrateful.
Ungrateful for Nigel having the cojones to take control of the Vote Leave campaign even though the official 'leaders' didn't initially want anything to do with him.
Ungrateful for Nigel addressing the British people as regular human beings with the ability to think for themselves, instead of Barack Obama who flew over here to treat us like a bunch of fucking three year old children.
Ungrateful for Nigel dedicating the best years of his life to achieving a single, simple political goal, and actually managing it.
You remember when Nigel stood down from the party leadership while saying that he wanted his life back? He wasn't kidding.
He spent decades being called every name under the sun, and guess what? Britain voted Leave.
He spent decades being portrayed in the media as a cross between Satan, Darth Vader and Oswald Mosley, with a million and one comparisons to Adolf Hitler, and guess what? Britain voted Leave.
Unlike so many other sorry excuses for politicians, Nigel kept it simple and made it perfectly clear that his lifetime's ambition was to get Britain out of the European Union.
He never changed his mind because it looked 'a bit tricky' – he just got the job done with a cigarette in one hand and a pint of ale in the other.
As politicians go, he has fulfilled 100% of what he set out to achieve in life, and his lack of a knighthood is nothing short of a national disgrace.
To cap it all off, he strolled into the European Parliament just after the Brexit vote and gave a speech that basically told the entire chamber to go fuck themselves. That deserved a knighthood in itself.

Aging Is A Great Blessing
December 06, 2011
Earning $0.50
People are more worried about aging. They want to be young forever. But the evening of life is really a great blessing.
Aging is a blessing. Aging is a natural process. As the saying goes, "Old wood is best to burn; old friends best to trust; old wine best to drink; old authors best to read," the wisdom that is gained by aging is the guiding star of future. Aging is associated with wisdom and the elders pass on their wisdom to successive generations. Hence one need not fear about aging.
The paradox of aging
Healthy aging means aging not only in biological conditions, but also growing younger and energetic in mind. We have seen a lot of old people running about cheerfully carrying out tremendous works. How is it possible? It is because their mind is young and active, though physically they may appear wrinkled and invalid. It is the natural phenomenon that makes the skin of the body wrinkle, body functions totter and diseases invade trying to cripple body and mind. But if one tries to keep himself cheerful and busy, he can keep his mind and soul young and active. This is the paradox of aging.
Understand aging and the causes of aging
Gerontology, the study of aging, is a relatively new science that is making incredible progress during the recent years. Scientists look at aging in two angles: first aging as a natural process in the body and secondly aging as a result of damage which is accumulated over time. They have found out that aging is a complex interaction of genetics, chemistry, physiology and behavior.
To a common man the concept of aging is a process that means declining health, muscle loss, increased body fat, decreased energy, low sex drive and foggy thinking.
The causes of aging
1) Process of body cells
Aging does not mean only the age above sixty. Actually aging begins at conception. A human life begins at the very moment of conception when the embryo is formed. Cells begin to multiply and growth of the body starts. But after certain time these production of cells begins to diminish and the body moves towards
2) Biochemical changes in the body
The body is continually undergoing many complex biochemical reactions which cause damage and, ultimately, aging in the body. For example, excess sugars in the blood stream can cause protein molecules to literally stick together and damage cells.
3) Hormone secretion reduced
The hormones in the body change as we age, causing many shifts in organ systems and other functions. They cause changes at every stage of human life, including causing susceptibility to diseases.
4) Decline in the immune system
Weakening of the body systems causes various problems. The cells take longer time to replenish in older people and their ability to function declines as the immune system also becomes weaker due to aging.
5) Lifestyle changes
Life style change, such as lack of exercises, more sedentary life, emotional imbalance, etc. causes much damage in old age. Modern TV and computer
6) Diet in aging
Diet plays a vital role in aging. Free radicals are said to be the causes of aging. They are like rust of the body. Lack of antioxidants in diet causes damage through free radicals. Hence people have to be more careful about their diet.
7) Emotional causes
Depression, fear about future, anger, worries, and other negative feelings and emotions make aging problematic.
8) Health hazards in the environment quicken aging
Health hazards in the environment such as pollution, tobacco smoke, radiation and some chemicals emit extreme toxin substances contaminating the nature. Alcohol and drugs, including some medicines taken for diseases, also are dangerous health hazards. These health hazards quicken aging.
Welcome the evening of life with a smile
Aging is an inevitable part of life. Everyone should welcome it with a smile and spend it cheerfully. As Rabbi Hara E. Person of Massachusetts says, "Old age is a Sabbath of life. Let us change our concept of the cycle of life, and allow for a Sabbath at the end. These years, too, are part of human existence, created in the image of God. Becoming a great-grandparent, celebrating a ninetieth birthday, witnessing the productive adulthood of grandchildren, let us spend this Sabbath cheerfully."

"It has been said that the sweetest words in our language are 'Mother, Home, and Heaven;' and one might almost say the word 'home' included them all; for who can think of home without remembering the gentle mother who sanctified it by her presence? And is not home the dearest name for heaven? We think of that better land as a home where brightness will never end in night. Oh, then, may our homes on earth be the centers of all our joys; may they be as green spots in the desert, to which we can retire when weary of the cares and perplexities of life, and drink the clear waters of a love which we know to be sincere and always unfailing."
