Blogging is one of the fastest growing trends in today's digital age, yet there are still some people who aren't sure what blogging is exactly and what it has to offer for them. If you want to learn about blogging, then glance through this article and see what the buzz is all about.
If you are an internet marketer, use your blog to build your email list. While posting direct advertising posts in the blog will probably turn off readers who come to your blog for information, putting an email sign-up box on your blog's sidebar, gives readers an unobtrusive way to receive marketing information from you should they like your blog.
Try writing for your readers. A blog is generally personal, but if you wish to grow an audience of more than a couple of people, try writing for the readers too. Try thinking about how the readers can benefit from your posts. If you wish to be a single beneficiary here, you should create a private journal.
You can have an excellent blog that would target an audience and bring in many readers, but without a great domain name you have nothing. Keep the domain name for your blog simple yet direct and effective. Think about your target niche, and choose the appropriate domain name for your blog as if you were thinking hard about a great title.
Keep your stress level down to a minimum. If you are too stressed, you will not be able to write very well. Ideas will not come easily, as your mind will be on what you are stressed about. Take some time out of your day to participate in some relaxation activities.
When you are writing, make sure that you stick to what you already know. You want your articles to be written with some level of expertise so that people will take you seriously. If you have to spend a lot of time researching, it will come out in your writing that you do not know much about the topic.
Guest Posting is a great way to get targeted traffic to your blog. Guest posting is when you write an article on someone else's blog, which in turn will drive targeted and relevant traffic to your own blog. Just make sure you choose a blog that will send quality traffic to your blog. You can do this by selecting a blog that has a good reputation and already has plenty of traffic heading to their site.
Use empty space to improve visual interest in your page. There is a reason why those who produce hard copy material abide by certain formatting rules. Margins, spacing between lines and blocks of text, and even spacing between sentences is important to the overall visual effect of your blog.
Try to increase the excitement of your blog by creating templates for your blogs. In many cases, blogs looking boring and unattractive. With a little bit of tweaking, you can completely change your viewers impression of your blog. With a few splashes of design, you can really make a great impression.
Be sure to keep it simple. Blogging isn't the same as philosophy. Even if you wish to explain any complicated concepts, try your best to keep them as simple as possible. Your blog competes with many other information sources, so it needs to be as easy to understand as possible.
Always try to make sure that you make your titles catchy and unique. Titles play a powerful role in catching the attention of your readers. It is important that you have a clever title that is interesting and has plenty of keywords so that your viewers can find your posts.
Make friends with other blogs that relate to your target niche. You can post useful comments on these blogs, and this will help promote your own blogging as well. Besides providing comments, some blogs will allow you to make guest posts, as this can be mutually beneficial to both of you.
If you are writing about a long, complicated subject, break your blog article into digestible bites. The longer the post, the harder it is to read. If your lengthy blog posts are broken up into smaller segments, they will appear much more readable.
When linking out, you should make sure that you are regularly linking to other blog posts that are related to you within your own posts and to the posts of other bloggers. Doing this will show that you are a prominent player within your niche, which makes it more likely that readers will gravitate towards you.
As you have now learned, blogging is something that is fun and great to use. Go ahead and do more research on blogging as this article only contains a portion of all the knowledge out there about blogging, just remember to apply all that you've learned and before you know it, your blog's popularity will sky rocket before your very eyes.

Fountains Abbey parkrun #192 Run Report
A very special parkrun yesterday. A beautiful morning. Temperatures hovering around zero degrees. Yet 331 of you still got out of bed and made the conscious decision to see your friends, run around the most beautiful of World Heritage sites in the early winter sun and get your Saturday parkrun fix. Many were still in the cafe at 12:30…..
I was particularly plead to catch up with Justin Scully the National Trust General Manager for Fountains Abbey & Studley Royal and in particular to see a goodly number of staff from the National Trust sporting dark green running tee shirts and joining the parkrun. An excellent initiative and I'd like to thank all of you that spoke generously to the National Trust staff congratulating them and thanking them for everything they do. Wonderful. A special mention if I can to Steve Grange & the team from the NT who helped ensure the parkrun course was good to run yesterday and in particular the safety of the wooden bridge on such a cold morning. Really appreciated Steve.
Lets not forget our Volunteers please. Cold fingers don't work particularly well on scanner, timers & tokens, and its ffffffreezing standing around the grounds marshalling & funnel managing. A real dream team job yesterday, thank you to everyone. Top marks also to Kathy Gargan making her full Run Director debut, Very well done Kathy.
Nicely done Reece Dalton & Charlotte Vie; our first male & female runners home yesterday.. Super running on a very cold morning. For the 41 runners recording new PB; excellent job. It was still, but not easy to process the air coming into the lungs so very well done.
Particular praise goes to our two new age category course record holders who absolutely excelled:
- VM50-54 Stewart Gregory 17:35 85.21%
- VW65-69 Val Brockwell 24:52 85.32%
Really impressive, and given one of those age groups is the one I'm in, the chance of getting onto the record books has now well & truly gone :).
One final special mention running her 50th parkrun, superstar junior JW10 runner Jessica Lewis. Fantastic Jessica well done.
And that's its for another week.
Have a great week & happy running……

Important notices concerning the Fountains Abbey parkrun. Please do not be offended if we ask you to help us. Many thanks for your co-operation & support in looking after the beautiful environment in which we run each week.
A polite reminder to all parkrunners that the trees at the start area are not clothes pegs. Please would runners leave their kit on the ground during the run.
Fountains Abbey parkrun takes place before the National Trust site opens to the public, therefore parkrunners, volunteers & spectators are kindly requested to be through the Visitor Centre gate and down by the Abbey before 9am or you will be denied access. We politely ask that all visitors to Fountains Abbey parkrun help us and our special relationship with the National Trust by respecting the basis upon which we operate. The gate at the top by the Visitor Centre is closed at 9am so anyone hoping to get in after this time, or anyone who leaves the Abbey grounds and wishes to re-enter before 10am, will be disappointed. The good news is that we look forward to joining you for a coffee in the Visitor Centre cafe as soon as we possibly can. Thank you for your support in this important matter.
All parkrun visitors must vacate the Abbey grounds before 10am when the National Trust site opens. If you'd like to stay and spend more time in the beautiful grounds please just head back through the Visitor Centre once the grounds open to the public [free to National Trust members].
Visitors arriving at Fountains Abbey by bicycle are asked to leave their bikes in the racks at the Visitor Centre please. Bikes are not allowed in the grounds beyond this point.
There are toilets by the Visitor Centre and these are well signposted. There are additional toilets around 50 metres behind the start line by Fountains Hall. Please use them - no exceptions; we need your fullest support with this. Thank you.
Please stand in the correct place at the start of the run according to your ability. If you are slower than the runners behind you this will cause a bottleneck at the start of the parkrun.

I am feeling quite bleak!
Last week the motoring guys gave me a car to test drive. It has been awesome. For a week I have been driving around in a 2 litre top-of-the-range Hyundai i30. It has leather seats, a sunroof and buttons on the steering wheel that allow you to control your environment. It was silver, new and stylish. Somewhat above the level of my 1400 high spec Getz - which is black and looks like a little FBI car because the smash-and-grab protection I had put on the windows made them slightly tinted.
For one week I have been driving like those jerks that annoy 1400 drivers who can't quite keep the traffic gaps small enough to stop the smirking drivers of powerful cars and snarling taxi drivers from cutting them off at every opportunity.
Alas - my time is up.
Today I had to hand the shiny chariot back to the dealer. All that is left is to write up the experience.
I now have the choice. I can upgrade my paid-off car to one of these stylish numbers and deal with the payments, fuel bills and speeding fines that come with it. Or I can save my money and go overseas with my Little One.
So. Dilemma quickly sorted by the purchase of a couple of air tickets. Little One and I depart on July 31 for Australia. We shall be hitting the beaches of the ever-sunny Gold Coast and the snowy slopes of Tasmania and visiting family in Sydney.Woo hooo!
I may be back to driving a sluggish little car tomorrow. But I have a divine holiday to look forward. Not a bad situation at all.

After start of sleeve, I worked in rows, turning at the top of each sleeve to avoid additional bulk in the neck area. It's an interesting pattern - essentially a big circle with arm holes.

The concept of cloud computing originated about 20 years ago but it only began to play a comprehensive role towards late 2000s. Nevertheless, from its inception up until now, cloud computing has been evolving thanks to changing market requirements and emerging technological trends. Enterprise needs coupled with a competitive and dynamic environment are guiding the evolution of cloud and over the last few years we have been introduced to a more flexible and acceptable version of Cloud – Hybrid Cloud.
In the beginning years, hybrid was sort of a fantasy and a buzzword and many did not expect it take shape the way it has now. However, over the years cloud evolved as enterprises felt a dire need to balance out their IT infrastructure outsourcing and hybrid became a reality in more ways than imagined.
In fact, hybrid seems like it is destined to be the future of enterprise IT services or is it?
Why Hybrid Cloud could be the future
The future belongs to systems and networks that are more fluid and flexible and hybrid cloud seems to promise these. Let's observe a few reasons on why hybrid is the future –
Bridge the gap: As cloud computing evolved to a level of efficient automation and control, a section of the enterprise world was left behind, contemplating and concerned on whether it should embrace cloud in its totality. This has resulted in a widening gap between the new age companies and the traditional old guard. Some of these traditional companies are so big in business and infrastructure that it is almost impossible for them to completely offshore their IT infra and services. Hybrid comes to the rescue here and plays a pivotal role – it allows for these companies to function as they should while opening up a venue to outsource or 'cloud' certain services.
Legacy applications and Restrictions: A lot of enterprises use legacy systems, software, and tools that perform well and are useful but are unfortunately, not compatible on cloud. Add to that, the issue of compliance and governance restrictions prevalent in certain geographies and business sectors that do not permit cloud adoption. Hybrid offers a balanced solution for many enterprises under these uncontrollable circumstances.
Practical and Effective: Hybrid offers viable and feasible solutions to all enterprises (old and new) based on their needs. It is a practical solution to burgeoning issues such as – tougher competition, higher costs, lower levels of flexibility, and scalability. Hybrid is very effective because it helps organizations achieve their IT infra objectives with minimal output and expense.
Agility and Flexibility: Enterprises need to undergo change and at a faster rate. Changing business dynamics are forcing enterprises to adapt to newer demands and innovate through their offerings. Hybrid cloud providers are a solution that can bring about a balance between an enterprises' need to be agile and its need to change.
Meeting Business expectations: From business leaders and owners point of view, the picture is larger and the goal, bigger. Top management looks into return-on-investment from every investment it makes while not wanting to compromise on efficiency, productivity, and most of all, the bottom-line. Under such demanding circumstances, it is almost impossible to have everything in hand, but hybrid fits into this puzzle simply due to its balanced approach of clubbing in-house and cloud capabilities. And yes, it helps restrain spends.
Hybrid would play an important role in enterprise IT going forward simply because it allows for enterprises to stand the benefits of time, costs, economies of scale, agility, and yet does not compromise on security and safety of data and processes. Such tailor made and well-balanced solution is essential as far as enterprises are concerned, especially so in an environment that demands flexibility, innovation, and faster time-to-market from enterprises.
As hybrid providers embrace newer enterprise considerations and build more flexible and compatible solutions, enterprises will have it easy to connect and sync up their in-house abilities with those of cloud.
Hybrid will also help provide a seamless experience between assets and tools of in-house and cloud thus creating a more flexible and scalable IT infrastructure. And yes, it will help enable a faster network. No matter what happens and how the enterprise IT infra landscape changes – Hybrid is here to stay and establish itself as a flexible, practical, and agile-oriented solution.

Holy Crap
Note particularly that most of Fey's answers were direct quotes from the CBS Couric/Palin interview.

Sad to say, but "reality" has now rendered satire inert, if not impossible! I can't help but think that the Republicans went into this election year with their eyes wide open and picked a sacrificial goat they all hated who is 72 years old to offer as an election placeholder. Think of it. How much wing-nut moaning about McCain have you heard this year? Quite a lot! And let's face it, the Republicans are usually nothing if not in lock-step 100% behind their party/figurehead.
They knew from the 2006 elections that they were getting their clock cleaned this year. Why not use McCain as a human shield? He'll certainly lose, they can says they made the attempt and better yet, McCain will be too old at 76 to ever think about running again. He'll finally be out of the way and they can lick their wounds and plot with less erratic candidates for 4 years hence.
In the meantime, McCain's meltdown has been a rather wince-worthy spectacle of political theatre* for all of us to "enjoy." The Palin freakshow is just jaw-dropping.

Exhausted, Anti-social and a TON of Laundry?
New to the gym game and you are feeling exhausted? Are you feeling anti-social from all the plans you missed out on this week? To top it all off, you have a terrifying overflowing laundry basket packed with clothes stuck together by sweat? YASSS! You are doing it right.
These are 3 boxes that should be ticked if you are being a beast in the gym and with summer just around the corner, I promise you it is all going to be worth it.
However, how long can you sustain this? I see so many people go so hard in the first few weeks and even their incredible gains aren't enough to keep them inspired through the tough times and they end up spiraling out of control back into their bad habits and old unhealthy ways.
I am here to the rescue after many tried and tested methods to conquer the 3 downsides of working out hard that nobody wants to talk about.
I feel FANTASTIC after my workout is done, but this wasn't always the case. I used to think that working out on an empty stomach was the BEST way to maximize my results and there may be some truth to this, however I was finding that my recovery after each session was a much longer process and this was hindering my results. So, what were the 2 things that I did that have completely changed my energy levels?
1. Pre-workout snack. For exercise under an hour eat something like a bagel or a piece of toast (quick energy burst). For exercise over an hour, look to a banana or another form of slow digesting carbohydrate.
2. BCAAS - A powder that I mix with water for muscle endurance and RECOVERY. Use "DUNNEBELLS17" at the register and save some $$$.
This may be harder to train yourself on than ANY machine you face at the gym. Finding a balance between: Spending time with your significant other, maintaining all your relationships with friends, getting your workout in, Taco Tuesday, Wing night, Thirsty Thursday, TGIF... Like, how the HELL do you even handle all these temptations when you are trying to stay strong mentally and physically.
These 3 are absolutely key if you even stand a chance. Balance meaning, work hard and play hard. You can absolutely have fun but make sure it isn't all fun and no work and vice versa.
Plan meaning, don't necessarily always say "YES" to the text that comes in at 5pm "PATIO DRINKS TONIGHT LADIES? I HAVE GOSS". Take a moment and think about it, your gym bag is already packed and you were excited all day to have a sweat session. Plan your catch ups with your friends so that you can ALSO plan the workouts.
Commit meaning, once you have found your balance and made your plan (above) stick to the things you say you will do. Both socially, and in the gym.
Sorry, I had to obviously point out that this is one of the biggest struggles we gym beasts face and I actually don't have any miracle solutions for you here. Buy more clothes or find yourself an AMAZING partner who will wash the gear for you. I am lucky enough that my beautiful girlfriend Kelsi knows the Lulu sports bra padding needs to be removed from the bras and that certain things CANNOT go in the dryer.
Hopefully you are now ready to crush 3 big barriers that get in your way of a happy, healthier you! I would love to hear how you deal with these struggles. Comment below.
Stay Strong. Be the fire.

1900 - 1902
The first service of what is now Trinity Lutheran Church was conducted in 1900 in a building in Brailey, Ohio. The building is today known as Brailey Union Church and our congregation at that time was called Zion Lutheran Church. Zion Lutheran was founded on May 3, 1900 in Swan Creek, Fulton County. The constitution was written in German and signed by 16 voting members including such familiar names as Entenmann, Leininger, Moeck, Schaechterle and Scheele.
1902 - 1906
The first recorded minutes of any meeting were written by Rev. Ruff in October 1902. His four-year ministry built the congregation into a group of about 55-60 communicants. Three confirmation classes brought 14 children into the church as confirmed members. April 26, 1903 was the date of the first confirmation service. During his pastorate, four members died and seven children were baptized.
1906 -1908
When Rev. Ruff left in 1906 for a congregation in Sherwood, Ohio, Zion was left without a pastor until Easter 1908, when the Rev. E.A. Herzberg arrived. During his two years, two children were baptized, one couple married and the Holy Eucharist celebrated on three occasions.
1910 - 1912
The Rev. J. J. Meyer came to serve in 1910, a year in which he confirmed a class of five, baptized three babies and celebrated the Lord's Supper six times. Some of the members of that 1910 confirmation class included: Anna Entenmann, F. Entenmann, Jacob Entenmann, Eva Peter and Elizabeth Puehler. During that year Rev. Meyer also married Henry and Sophia Puehler.
1912 - 1914
In July 1912, Rev. Meyer left and the Rev. S. Hofmann arrived within less than six months. Rev. Hofmann baptized six babies on one day – August 28, 1912. During his time with the church, Rev. Hofmann baptized a total of nine, the last being Erwin Leininger in 1914. During a funeral that same year, Rev. Hofmann's sermon was delivered in English – a first! With World War I on the horizon, all things German were looked at suspiciously. English gradually became the official language over the next several years.
1915 - 1917
In 1915, the church was reorganized under the name Trinity Lutheran Church, during the ministry of Rev. H.E. Plehn. The constitution in the front of the old church record book lists the name of the congregation as "Evangelical Trinity Lutheran Church.'' The constitution bore the names of Ballin, Emmons, Entenmann and Leininger.
When Rev. Plehn arrived, the church had been without a pastor for 10 months, and without celebrating the Lord's Supper for over two years. He baptized three children in 1915, confirmed one child in 1916, and officiated at an all-English language funeral that same year.
Rev. Plehn must have realized that the future of the congregation would require relocation. On Nov. 18, 1917, the congregation met in the Old Free Methodist Church building on Main Street in Delta. The building was purchased by the congregation about 25 years later.
1917 - 1929
On Dec. 2, 1917, the entire communion service was conducted in English. At this time, Rev. Plehn asked for his dismissal from Trinity in order that he might serve as a chaplain in the armed services. This left the congregation without a pastor until 1922, when the Rev. O.G. Hebestreit accepted the call to serve at Delta. Before he left in 1929, he baptized 13 children and confirmed 11, but performed no marriages. At his departure, the congregation had 19 voters on the church membership list, including A.C. Heldt, David Nuding, Jacob Schaechterle, William Schaechterle and Carl Schumacher.
1929 - 1932
The Rev. R. Trautman arrived in 1929 and the next year confirmed four, including John Schaechterle and Robert Taylor. He performed the marriage of Frank and Vidah Rowe, and two funerals, including David Schaechterle.
At this time, the Central District Mission Board of the Missouri Synod was interested in establishing a new mission congregation in Liberty Center. Consequently, a man by the name of Pastor Miller was employed for a year to serve the two parishes of Delta and Liberty Center.
1933 - 1937
In 1933, Trinity installed the Rev. Harry Krueckenberg, who served the parish until 1937. During this time he confirmed 13 people, including Viola Heldt, Dan Mock, Dorothy Schaechterle, Martha Schaechterle, Luetta Schumacher and Amy Taylor (Seibel). During those four years he performed seven marriages, including those of Jacob Schaechterle and William Schaechterle.
1937 - 1942
In 1937, Pastor Krueckenberg accepted a call to serve at Stryker and was succeeded by Rev. C.H. Matthias. Those confirmed by Rev. Matthias included Martha Lindhorst, Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Onweller, Corwin Onweller, Golda Stromberger and Arnold Scheele.
While Pastor Matthias was with Trinity, he performed the marriages of John Chovan, Ivan Onweller and John Seibel. Funerals included Mrs. John Leininger, Mrs. Arnold Schumacher, Louis Taylor and Peter Thayer. Pastor Matthias envisioned the future growth of the village and was instrumental in the purchase of property on Main Street. The purchase was approved by the Home Mission Board of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod – in 1942, for the total cost of $1,300, which was repaid at $20 per month. Pastor Matthias left in 1942 to serve St. Stephen's in Defiance.
1943 - 1945
In 1943, Trinity welcomed Rev. L.K. Zank, a 1941 graduate of Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. Rev. Zank had been an assistant pastor in Cincinnati and employed with the "Gospel Hour'' on KFUO in St. Louis. The congregation rented the house just west of the church, with an option to buy the house if they desired.
In 1943, the church was completely remodeled and the new Chancel furnishings were purchased. The refurnished structure was dedicated the Sunday after Easter in 1945 with the Home Mission Director, Pastor Birkener, preaching the sermon. The Rev. G. Christian Barth, vice president of the district, also participated. It was also in 1945 that Pastor Zank submitted his resignation so that he could return to graduate school.
1946 - 1962
On Jan. 4, 1946 a meeting of voters was held and a Letter of Call was extended to Pastor Fred Rediger of Noblesville, Indiana. For the first few months of Rev. Rediger's stay in Delta, he roomed in a private home, until June 1946, when he married Miss Margaret Walz of Indiana. Pastor Rediger served a dual parish of Delta and Liberty Center until 1956, when he terminated his services in Liberty Center and began a mission congregation in Swanton. Under his leadership, both Delta and Swanton parishes grew to the point that soon they both would need their own resident minister. In 1962, Rev. Rediger accepted a call to the Columbus area, where an active congregation and new church building awaited his arrival.
1962- 1965
This left Trinity without a pastor. Several calls were extended but no pastor accepted the invitation – leaving three years without a resident minister. During this time, Trinity was aided on an interim basis by Pastor Boelter, who was serving Zion Lutheran in Ridgeville Corners. Finally, after much discussion, planning, seeking and praying, the congregation voted to sever the membership they held in the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod, and to affiliate with the American Lutheran Church.
Dr. Norman Menter, President of the Michigan District, was contacted. He was also vice president of the American Lutheran Church at a national level. The geographical boundaries of the ALC, Michigan District, included several Northwestern Ohio counties, including Fulton; and so after negotiations, we were officially received as a member of this body at the District Convention in 1965.
1965 - 1969
In July 1965, the first Pastor from ALC arrived in Delta. Rev. Gast was a 1965 seminary graduate. He stayed with Trinity until 1969, when he resigned to become minister of Peace Lutheran in Bowling Green. During his ministry a parsonage was built. The modern brick home at 803 Fernwood was dedicated in 1967.
1969 - 1971
On April 20, 1969, Rev. Roger Schalnat accepted the call and was installed. He served until Sept. 30, 1971, when he moved to Columbus to serve as Director of Materials for the Lutheran Social Services.
1971 - 1979
Rev. T.L. Grotjohn, who was serving at St. Michael Lutheran in Whiteford Center, Michigan, accepted the call and arrived in Delta on Dec. 1, 1971. Rev. Grotjohn led the congregation until June 1979, when he left to serve as assistant to the president of the Michigan District. During the call process, Rev. Ed Dodt of Defiance served as an interim pastor.
1980 - 1993
On Feb. 12, 1980, Rev. Ronald F. Johnson from Baroda, Michigan moved to Delta to serve Trinity. He conducted his first service on Ash Wednesday, Feb. 20. On March 2, Pastor Johnson was installed by Rev. U. Luther Siefkes, assistant to the president of the Michigan District.
In 1980, with Al Scherer as chairman of the Building Committee, the vision of a new building on Taylor St. was planned. After service for 15 years as chairman of that committee, Al Scherer died in April 1981. With his death, Fred LeSueur became the chairman of the Building Committee. In May 1981, invitations for bids on the new construction were sent out. Bids of Archistructures Construction Company of Wauseon, Kleck Electric Company of Delta, and Poynter Plumbing of Bryan were accepted.
The bids were voted on, and accepted by, the congregation. On July 12, 1981, ground was broken for construction.
In September 1981, the church on Main Street was sold to the Bible Baptist Church of Swanton. Trinity then rented the church on Main Street from the Bible Baptists and conducted services and church business cooperatively with them through June 1982.
On November 8, 1981, the Cornerstone Laying Service took place. The last service at the Main Street church – where the congregation had worshipped since November 1917 – took place on June 27, 1982.
On July 4, 1982, the first worship service was conducted in the Taylor Street church. The congregation has continued to grow ever since, proving the wisdom, and rewarding the faithful people who shouldered the work, and debt, required to make it all possible. Many finishing touches have been put on the church, making the church a very comfortable and beautiful place for worship, fellowship and education.
During the January 1987 congregational meeting, Trinity voted to approve the "Agreement and Plan of Merger'' by and between the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the American Lutheran Church, Lutheran Church in American and the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches – thus becoming a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA).
1993 - 2000
Pastor Johnson retired in 1993 and Pastor William L. Hutflies accepted the Letter of Call, coming to Delta from a dual parish of Sandusky and Monroeville, Ohio. Pastor Hutflies was installed on Oct. 24, 1993 by Bishop James Rave.
During Pastor Hutflies' seven years at the church, Trinity purchased a new organ and made many improvements. During that time, a generous gift from the estate of longtime member Martha Lindhorst allowed the church to pay off its mortgage, plan a drive-up canopy and develop an endowment fund.
2000 - Present
In 2000, Pastor Eric Markovich left Bethlehem Lutheran in East Toledo to join Trinity. Pastor Eric's influence was felt at our church in the areas of spiritual growth through special Bible study and seminar opportunities; community outreach and fellowship; and family-oriented activities meant to help both children and parents learn of God's grace through his Son Jesus Christ. Pastor Eric served at Trinity for 17 years, leaving in August, 2017.
In 2017 we began being served by 3 interim pastors: Pastor Dennis King, Pastor Brian Haller, and SAM Jeannine Grimm.
We have much to be grateful for as we look to the past; and are certainly encouraged as we look to the future and the wonderful promises God holds for us! We give thanks for the past; rejoice in the present; and are confident that God will continue to bless us with His gracious care, both spiritually and physically.
We give thanks to God Almighty, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

As My Life Story mainman Jake Shillingford points out, there aren't too many who can claim that Oasis once supported them.
The group specialised in lavish indie-pop and achieved fame at the height of Britpop with hits such as 12 Reasons Why, Strumpet and Duchess.
But with a 12-strong line-up and orchestral sound, they were often at odds with a lot of the scene.
While the band initially split up in 2000, they have got back together every other year since 2007 for a Christmas show in London.
Now though, they are heading out on a UK-wide tour in a stripped-down five-piece version.
Jake recalls those heady days of the early '90s: 'I remember Noel saying that My Life Story were one of the only bands that Oasis supported.
People talk about the showmanship or the orchestra, the puns, or one-liner lyrics, but really for me, the one thing I'm proud of with My Life Story is the songwritingJake Shillingford
'Their rise to fame was so meteoric, I think we did one show with them in Oxford and got to know them quite well, and the next thing they were into the stratosphere.'
While Jake is well aware that his band are a cult concern, he keeps a sense of humour about their appearance on things like lists of great 'lost' bands.
'It's quite weird, I was introduced by someone on stage the other day as "Jake Shillingford from the '90s", which made me laugh. I explained, actually I'm still alive and I am available from other decades as well.'
And he is proud of the band's legacy: 'People talk about the showmanship or the orchestra, the puns, or one-liner lyrics, but really for me, the one thing I'm proud of with My Life Story is the songwriting. And when you have a canon of good songs, people want to hear great songs, and reminiscing about that time, a lot of those bands from that time were fantastic tunesmiths, and that's why maybe there's a bit of a revival going on.'
They also released their first single in 15 years last week, 24 Hour Deflowerer. Does this mean there could be a full album?
'It's metaphorical toe-in-water time, and we'll see what happens.
'I've started to get back into writing those kind of songs again. I'm not hearing a lot of that sort of pop vignette coming out of the radio. 'There's some great stuff out there, but I want to bring that back. It's a very disciplined art form. I wanted to go back and write something that screams in your face: "I'm a pop song!"'
They play The Wedgewood Rooms on Thursday, doors 8pm. Tickets £14. Go to wedgewood-rooms.co.uk

"I praise His name, He's so good to me…."
I listen to these words over and over as Kalea and Joshua drift to sleep, listening to their "kids music."
In homeschool, we are reading the biography of George Müller. As a youth, he was always trying to avoid trouble, though his sneaky lies and joy in not getting caught eventually led him right where God wanted him to be. He eventually outgrew his games of cheating people and lived a life of serving God. He was steadfast in his obedience in trusting the Lord. He eventually opened many orphanages that served thousands of children in Bristol, England in the 1800's. He even succeeded in running a school for hundreds of children outside of the many served at the orphanages. George prayed daily for the needs of those children, for their every need. Time and time again, they were down to the last crumb of food, not knowing where the next provision would come from, but it always came! George trusted in Him for all of his needs.
I am awe struck at George's faithfulness in trusting for that many people! His trust and faith in God is an inspiration and a reminder to me of all the many blessings we have received. When we first arrived to Panama, I truly hoped in my heart that we would have to pack it up and leave because of insufficient funds! God used that moment in time to teach me, that was NOT His will! He wanted us there in Panama! And I needed to learn that more than anything! What a delight to learn, YES!, He does desire for us to serve there. He provided the means. This is my miracle folks! And yours, if you have ever prayed for us, encouraged us, and/or supported financially!
In order for us to sustain in Panama' we are dependent upon others to meet our financial needs. We are currently up to about 70% pledged of our budget and need to be fully supported before launching into our next three year term to serve in Panama. George's testimony is a reminder for me, that God stirs people to help impact the ministries here and abroad. Would you pray with us?
Dear Heavenly Father,
You know the needs of our family, and we are trusting you fully to meet those needs. We ask that you stir up the hearts of our dear brothers and sisters in Christ to be burdened to pray for the lost in Panama. For those that are still enslaved by witchcraft and false beliefs to be set free in the truth which comes through Jesus. We praise you for the works that you are doing in Panama, for the youth there, and their desire to share your love to others that have not heard the Good News. We thank you for the local church, strengthen them on their path to fulfill Kingdom work for your glory. God, we know you don't need us in Panama, you can use anyone. Thank you for choosing us! Use us how you desire, we are yours and we trust that if it is your will to return to Panama, every provision will be met! We love you Jesus!
We praise you, God, we praise you, for your Name is near; people tell of your wonderful deeds. Psalm 75:1
Hoping your Christmas is full of love and laughter as week seek peace on earth and good will toward everyone!

Evil Mastermind's Brain in a jar!
This is the "Brain in a Jar" robot from Black Cat Bases - nice little figure but it was not without it's problems. I may have gone slightly overboard on the murky wash on the jar itself - the brain is easier to see in real life, honest! The problem with the figure is probably due to the shape of the base/track unit - a lot of the moldlines obliterated any detail that was supposed to be there. Oh well! This would most likely be an objective marker in game - the bad guys want to capture it for nefarious purposes, the good guys want to deny their enemies this font of evil knowledge!

Actually, fuck it. I will write when I get home, and it will be all the more interesting because I will just have been under sedation!
In all honesty, I've actually just run out of time and I have to go now. But it could be interesting. We'll see if it is at all evident in my writing that I have just been gassed and sedated for three hours.
Or more likely, I'll just fall asleep when I get home, and you won't hear from until I wake up in two days.
We'll see...
And I'm back. It is now 7:15 in the evening, and Girl Agent dropped me back off about three hours ago. So far I have fought the urge to sleep, as I would like to get a few things done this evening, though it has not been an easy task. I fell asleep twice while eating cereal on the couch, and only woke up both times when I tipped the bowl of milk into my lap. Since then, I have just been lying on the couch, trying to stay awake to do some chores, but I have yet to actually get up and accomplish anything. I haven't even taken my night time meds yet - I know that when I do, I will not be moving for at least 12 hours.
Though I am absolutely exhausted, I am still glad that I followed through with my Night Before Surgery plan, and stayed up all last night and this morning. This is how I always prepare for something like surgery or piercing or tattooing or laser hair removal. By not sleeping for two days, I am able to fall asleep very easily during and following my procedure, even when the pain is at it's worst, and -
Oh, God. Oh God oh God oh God. Bf just called. Oh, GOD. The shit has hit the fucking fan.
Baby Momma called Bf a little while ago, and tore a big long strip off his ass. Everything that I worried about in yesterday's blog post came to a head tonight. Baby didn't mention her new name for me (Momma Kg) in front of her mum, as far as I know, but what happened today was along the exact same lines.
Apparently while they were playing this afternoon, Baby Momma said to her daughter, "Are you my baby?"
"No," Baby replied matter-of-factly. "I Kg baby."
I know that in yesterday's post, I was waxing lyrical about how much I would enjoy it if Baby said something like this in front of Baby Momma. I even considered encouraging her when she would call me Momma Kg, so that the name would stick and would eventually get repeated in front of Baby Momma. I rejoiced in the opportunity to avenge myself without actually taking any action or doing anything wrong. But I also came to the conclusion last night that I just couldn't do it. I could not set out to deliberately use my sweet step-baby to hurt Baby Momma's feelings.
When it happened on it's own, without any intervention from me, I still expected a feeling of immense satisfaction - karma had come round full circle on Baby Momma, but I had done nothing to instigate it, so my conscience was free and clear. But I really did think that I would relish the time when she was finally the one getting hurt, instead of always doing the hurting to everyone else.
It never happened, though. I never got my feeling of satisfaction. When Bf told me what had happened, instead of gloating shamelessly I immediately thought of how Baby Momma must have felt when her own daughter told her that she was Kg's Baby, not hers. All I felt was my own heart lurching in agony. I felt horribly sorry for her - I couldn't even imagine how badly that must have hurt. How could I ever have thought that I would enjoy this? I wondered.

The latest on the presidential horse race.
Bill Cassidy Has Strong Lead Over Mary Landrieu in Louisiana Senate Run-Off Race
NBC News/Marist
- Cassidy (R): 50
- Landrieu (D): 45
USA Today/Suffolk
- Cassidy (R): 48
- Landrieu (D): 41
As expected, no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote in Louisiana's open primary, thus triggering a run-off election between the top two vote-getters.
On December 6, incumbent Democrat Mary Landrieu will go head-to-head with Republican Bill Cassidy to determine the state's senate seat.
Landrieu led the open primary with 42 percent of the vote while Cassidy received 41 percent and fellow Republican Rob Maness received 14 percent.
With Maness out of the race, the scales have tipped heavily into Cassidy's favor.
Aside from getting just 42 percent of the vote compared to 55 percent for the top two Republicans, head-to-head polls show Landrieu is in serious trouble as the run-off approaches.
An NBC News/Marist poll has Cassidy leading by 5 percent, a USA Today/Suffolk poll has Cassidy leading by 7, and a CBS News/New York Times poll has Cassidy up by 4.
While that in itself is a solid lead, we also saw on Tuesday just how much polls were skewed toward Democrats.
According to FiveThirtyEight, the average poll was skewed 4 percent toward Democrats, the largest Democratic bias recorded since 1990. Polling bias obviously didn't help as the Democrats were slaughtered on election night, though part of the bias may have been related to a low voter turnout among Democrats.
This means that Cassidy is likely even more ahead of Landrieu, especially given the 55 percent of the vote the two GOPers received in the open primary. Landrieu also has just a 44 percent favorable rating in her state while 50 percent of Louisiana residents have an unfavorable view of the three-term senator.

Sewa Sandesh July 2015
Bharat pledged an assistance of $1 billion to the quake-ravaged Nepal for its massive re-construction programme. The announcement was made by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj during the International Donors' Conference in Kathmandu on June 22.
Led by Bharat and China, global donors pledged over $3.5 billion as aid to Nepal, meeting half of the $6.7 billion needed to rebuild the nation, as Nepalese Prime Minister vowed "full transparency" and "zero-tolerance" to corruption in disbursing the relief money to the victims. Pledging the aid, Swaraj asserted Bharat would strongly stand behind the Nepalese Government, which is seeking to "wipe the tears" of every Nepalese citizen.
Shyamji Gupta, Founder-Chairman of "Ekal-India" happened to be in Nepal when the earthquake struck and so he personally initiated the relief efforts after witnessing the tragedy first-hand that unfolded. As of April'2015, Ekal had 1,500 schools operating in Nepal's rural areas. Ekal, was not only familiar with its people, its culture and life's necessities, but also, had well-established rapport with the local governments. As the news of destruction hit the world, 'Ekal Organization' under the leadership of Ravidev ji Gupta sprang into action to start coordinating rescue, relief, and rehabilitation efforts with its selfless volunteering force of 1,600 Nepali regulars. Within days, Ekal's own survey indicated that 626 Ekal-Villages were affected, 365 Ekal teacher's housings were destroyed and over 250 Ekal schools were badly damaged. In earthquake ravaged regions, Ekal extended help irrespective of caste, region and creed etc. Essential food items and medicines, 9743 tarpaulin, and 11,500 blankets were distributed which benefitted approximately 5,000 families in 400 villages. The team of Doctors treated 500 patients in 'Sindupalchowk' district and 400 patients in 'Lalitpur' district for wounds, gastric problems, psychiatric interventions and orthopedic injuries. According to Subhashji Gupta, past President and current Advisor to Ekal-USA, total commitment of Ekal in Nepal is likely to exceed Rs. 2 Crores.
Krishna Devi Vanvasi Awasiya Vidyalaya is a residential school for Vanvasi girls at Majhgawan in Chitrakoot region of Madhya Pradesh. The school and its hostel is supported by Deendayal Research Institute (DRI). The school has few buildings in the campus which are used as classrooms and hostels with an electricity connection from the grid, which is highly unstable. Power cuts are for more than 12 to 15 hours daily and mainly in the evenings.
Frequent power cuts caused problem in the study of Vanvasi girls staying in the hostel. School was struggling to provide clean light to students as diesel generator was getting expensive day-by-day. When it came to the attention of Sewa International, a detailed survey was conducted. The survey found that the total electricity load including lights, fans and computers was about 1.2kw. About 24sq.m. free space was identified on the roof of the administration building. A 2 KWp solar power plant was installed on the available roof space of the school with 5 hours battery backup. The total project cost was Rs.4,02,380, out of which MNRE gave a subsidy worth Rs.1,20,714. The Sewa international arranged the remaining funds of Rs.2,81,666 through donation from NRIs in USA. From the date of its installation in 2013, the system has been supporting 17 fans, 32 CFL lights 3 TVs and 2 computers. The girls now have uninterrupted power supply in the evening to study.
Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram recently organised mass marriage at Salibari near Siliguri in North Bengal where 101 couples got married. All the couples came along with their relatives, family members and the villagers. All the rituals were conducted with complete sanctity. After rituals, the couples visited temple and had blessings of the elders. Such functions were also organised in Guwahati where 19 couples got married. The people working in tea garden of Assam, Tripura and West Bengal live under poverty. In such situation organising wedding ceremony becomes difficult for them. Therefore, many youth prefer the short cut i.e. Gandharva Vivah for wedding. But in this process they get cut from the society.
Ernakulam unit of Sewa Bharati has started serving mid-day meal to the patients at Government General Hospital in Kochi from July 1. Noted Physician Dr Sachidananda Kamath inaugurated the initiative. The food will be served daily from 7 am onwards. Sewa Bharati has been providing free meals for many years in Kerala. In Kasaragod, it is actively involved in the scheme, which has received huge public applause. RSS Kochi Mahanagar Karyavah Shri Rajesh Chandran, Bauddhik Pramukh Shri Abhinu Suresh, Sewa Bharati coordinator Shri PS Manikantan, Nagar Sanghachalak Shri Lakshminarayanan, and other local functionaries attended the function.
Solar Mini-Grid Project in Jharkhand
Darmi and Nawadih Villages in Rehala region of Jharkhand consist of 114 households with a population of around 600, mostly depending on farming. Water supply for cultivation has been a big issue. Existing source of power supply is national grid, but the villagers hardly get power for an hour in a day, and that too under very low voltage. People still depend on kerosene, an additional burden to the economy.
Solar Mini-Grid solution was offered by Crux Power Pvt Ltd, Bhubaneshwar, after the villagers agreed to provide adequate land for Solar Module installation and to take the maintenance part of the project. Considering a basic need for household a centralised Mini-Grid system of 34.5KWp capacity was designed with a minimum power supply (total of 6 hours including morning and evening time) to each household. The provision was made so that each household pays Rs 100 in a month for maintenance and smooth functioning of the project. A village level committee was formed to look after the project.
As a result the villagers now get uninterrupted power supply for minimum 6 hours in a day. Each household gets 150W peak load power supply. A water purification system with storage capacity of 6,.000 liters cater to drinking water needs. It has increased the study hours of students. It has provided scope for further economic activities for small entrepreneurs.
Sewa Bharati workers near Sikandara in Agra have turned a Sewa Basti into an ideal village. RSS Akhil Bharatiya Sewa Pramukh Shri Suhasrao hiremath visited the Basti on July 17 to meet the people. The work in the Basti is being carried out under the leadership of a retired police officer Shri Ashok Bhatnagar. The villagers including the parents of the children who attend the Bal Sanskar Kendra informed Shri Hiremath not even a single child of the Basti went to school about eight years back. Now majority of the children go to school. A temple has also been constructed in the Basti where regular puja is held. A mobile library has also been set up. Shri Hiremath said a person becomes great y getting good samskars and having sound mind and intellect. The Sewa Bharati is trying to change the mindest of the people through such activities. Kshetra Sewa Pramukh Shri Gangaram, mahanagar Sewa Pramukh Shri Ashok Sharma also accompanied the workers.
Second time in the same week, RSS swayamsevaks of Kolar in Karnataka cleaned the premises and temple lake of historic 800 year old Sri Gouri Gangadhareshwara Temple in Kolar on July 5. As a part of Sewa Sanghik, they along with other voluntary organisations including scouts and guides took the initiative of cleaning the Temple lake. The temple was built during Chola Empire. The lake was badly polluted.
RIWATCH is a community based research organisation working at Roing in Lower Dibang Valley District of Arunachal Pradesh. Even till date this District is highly dependent on electric supply from Assam. People face complete power cut for days or weeks throughout the year. The work of RIWATCH involves study of people, their life style, their physical appearances, customs, technology, their music, dance ceremonies and rituals. It attracts many researchers across the world during various parts of the year. With the unreliable source of power it was getting very difficult for RIWATCH to continue its core activities. RIWATCH campus has 31 CFL lights, 5 street lights, 14 fans, 8 computers, and 3 TVs. After preliminary survey it was decided to construct a Canopy Based 3KWp Solar Project in its campus to support the critical load of around 2 KW. The plant was designed with a provision of expanding it to 5 KW. The total project cost was Rs. 6,08,375 from which MNRE contributed Rs 1,82,512 as subsidy. Sewa International's Clean Tech Initiative contributed remaining Rs 4,25,863.
The success of this project became a role model in Lower Dibang Valley and surrounding districts. Many government officials have visited the campus to understand the modalities of the project. Now the district administration and a local school are planning to adopt roof top solar power plant motivated by the RIWATCH project.
Quite often the solution is far easier than even imagined. More than a dozen infants died in Government hospitals within a single week a few months back in Dharmapuri District of Tamil Nadu. The cause was found as malnutrition. Recently, the volunteers of Ekal Vidyalaya movement found that simple home remedies improve the health level of pregnant mothers and new born infants. It happened like this; 1,011 women in hamlets where Ekal Vidyalaya work were administered a combination of herbal home remedies and Ayurveda-Siddha medicines under the guidance of experts in the respective systems. The nutrition level of 846 of them (84 per cent) improved. This successful attempt at fighting malnutrition was conducted in Coimbatore and Nilgiris districts of Tamil Nadu too. The Ekal Movement pressed into service the Arogya Foundation of India.
A series of landslides triggered by overnight heavy rain left at least 50 people dead, 23 missing and more than 500 displaced in West Bengal's Darjeeling District on July 1. The landslides at 25 places in Darjeeling, Kalimpong and Kurseong sub-divisions also washed away portions of highways, including a bridge, cutting off the road link to the region. 22 deaths occurred in Mirik, where 13 people were also reported missing. The remaining 17 died in Kalimpong, Lava, Sukhia and Gorubathan areas. Twenty persons were reported injured and 15 missing at 8 Mile and 11 Mile areas in Kalimpong. About 300 people shifted to relief camps organised by the administration. Union Minister of State Shri Kiren Rijiju and MP Shri SS Ahluwalia visited the affected areas. The Sangh volunteers rushed to the affected areas as they got the news of landslide. About 60 workers under the banner of Uttar Bang Sewa Bharati joined the relief activity. They provided eatable items, milk powder, biscuits, water, tarpaulin, blankets, clothes, rice, flour, etc to the victims. Bastuhara Sahayata Samiti from Kolkata also dispatched relief material. A team of doctors from Siliguri under the leadership of Dr Mani Lama also rushed to the spot.
- Service rendered to the community by a Dalit girl has brought laurels to her and Isayankulam. Sushri P. Thayammal (28) of Isayankulam, a village in Srivaikuntam taluk in Thuthukudi district (Tamilnadu, Bharat), was presented with the Woman Exemplar Programme – 2015 Award of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) which carries Rs. 3 lakh and a medal by Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in New Delhi on April 6, 2015. Thayammal, a fatherless woman who hails from a poor family, is involved in providing free coaching for rural students to ensure better academic performance. She is one of the seven children of the family and the first to have earned a Master's degree in Commerce. She developed a skill for teaching after overcoming hurdles as a slow learner. Her father, a farm labourer, was struck dead by lightning while at work on October 21 last year. She began coaching children at an anganwadi centre opposite her house. Now she coaches 30 students from class six to eight in the evening. . She has persuaded 35 children, identified as school dropouts in 2007-08, to continue their education. She also offers free coaching to those appearing for competitive examinations besides helping villagers fill up applications for government assistance. Her brothers are working in stone quarries.
- Whenever 67 – year old Shri Katnam Bala Gangadhara Tilak, ventures out in his car, he is on the lookout for tar mixed gravel dumped on roadsides. Tilak's mission is to collect the unclaimed tar and gravel and fill potholes elsewhere. Tilak is a resident of Hydershakote near Rajendranagar, Hyderabad (Telengana, Bharat). Starting his day at nine in the morning, he travels along different routes and scouts for potholes. (His score: 1,125 potholes!) The moment, he spots one, he immediately stops his car and puts up two red flags to alert road users. Using a crowbar, spade, broomsticks and tar mixed gravel, he then takes up the task of filling the pothole, even as passersby watch him puzzled. After retiring as a senior section engineer from South Central Railway (SCR), Vijayawada, he got a designer engineer's job at Infotech Company, Manikonda. While going to office, he was a witness to few road accidents. Several youngsters were crushed to death under the wheels of heavy vehicles after their motorcycles skidded off the road due to a crater. Such situations do not allow him to concentrate on his job. He spends over Rs.500 towards fuel expenses every day. Impressed with Tilak's initiative, GHMC Commissioner M.T. Krishna Babu lauded him for contributing for the society's development. He directed officials concerned to arrange a vehicle with required material to assist Tilak to take up patch up works effectively
- It is quite easy to locate Dr. K.Ramaswamy's small clinic tucked away in an old building along the Kulasekaranathar Kovil Street of Thenkasi, a municipality in Thirunelveli District (Tamilnadu, Bharat). A mere mention of "ten rupee doctor" will do. For the last 33 years he treats ailments of the people of the town and several villages around by charging just Rs 10 as consultation fee. Early during the period, it was just Re 1. The hike is for paying the salaries of his assistants, the kind hearted doctor informs. This MBBS doctor, a skin specialist, had settled down in this town after serving in government hospitals in many towns. He married off his only daughter and having few needs, Ramaswamy and his wife Bhagavathi have chosen to lead a frugal life serving the needy.
