The following programs are still running
I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop that keeps giving me a message stating "The following programs are still running...."
My issue is the list of programs is empty. So, if nothing is running why am I getting this message?
I just need to figure out how to get my computer to shut down without having to go through all the annoyance of having to keep sitting at my computer once I tell it to shut down.
Thank you!

Thank you!
When you are sitting there, Is there anything extra you have to do in order to help your machine to shutdown?
Do you have any Dialog boxes asking you to make sure certain programs are saved, and closed or else you will lose important information?
Give me an exact description of what happens.

The only other thing I have to do is click continue shutdown, it just doesn't pop up for about a minute after I hit shut down. If I don't click force shutdown the computer will continue to run, even if the top is closed.
There are no dialog boxes to save any information. Just the blackened screen saying that I still have programs open, and where there should be a list there is nothing but empty space.

Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium SP1
This is the boilerplate diagnosis of your problem Windows 7 or Vista will not shutdown , it is written for Vista but it applies to W7 too.
You need to track down what component, process, or program is causing the issue. Since there is nothing in the box I would focus on processes first. There are a lot of them so you can STOP them 5 at a time, then do one at a time once (if) you find the offending "group".
For components you can go into device manager and Disable them (not Remove) one at a time. But certainly start with anything connected via USB just by unplugging them.
Do you have any issue with Startup?
Have you made any changes to your system that coincide with the start of the behavior?

byearlymonk, since we both have Home Premium I checked my registry, and I do not have the registry entries that are suggested to be changed in Lost Colonist's reply.
So, if your not comfortable with modifying the registry by adding Keys I would go with TVeblen's advice and go with the trial and elimination process in his link.
@Lost Colonist:
No hurt intended by my reply just an observation.

Clothes Maiden's spring and summer line of gym-wear has just come out. It features Fabletics, which are not meant to be boring and drab, but rather inspiring. They are not meant to be see-through either. Active-wear is always popular, especially now that winter is over. This particular brand of high fashion gym-wear is modeled by co-founder Kate Hudson. Her passion is to encourage women to remain active and physically fit throughout their lives. The Fabletics clothing line is the brainchild of Hudson, who is the daughter of Goldie Hawn. Both mother and daughter are actresses.
The Spring & Summer Collection of colorful yoga pants and tops are great for running, working out, playing with the kids, or laying on the couch contemplating the universe, with maybe a little TV on the side. Although Fabletics is not really marketed as loungewear that may well be its most popular function. Because for some people, anything that feels as comfortable as pajamas is like a couch magnet.
From lounge around to high-intensity workouts, or what have you, Fabletics has new outfits every month. Expensive and cute fitness apparel is at hand. Since 2013, Fabletics has been making a name for itself as a quality purveyor of yoga outfits. The prices are reasonable and the outfits flattering.
There is a special VIP Program for the workout enthusiast. With an automatic monthly payment of $50, one of several outfits can be chosen by the pay date. If no choice is made or no cancellation is issued for the month by the payment date, then there is a charge for the month which can be used as a credit. The VIP Program can be cancelled one month at a time or on a more permanent basis. The very first outfit is $25 if the VIP route is taken.

my grandfather built when he came to America with his grandfather. It plays an important role within the narrative, which is kind of fun—it's setting, it's family, it's U.P.—and like all of those things it too is falling apart. I knew I wanted that photo for the cover of my book before I knew I had a book to cover.
Three word book summation: Bring a chisel.
What were you trying to achieve with your chapbook? Tell us about the world you were trying to create, and who lives in it.
I feel like the subject matter chose me. Or it was in me and it had to live. Or maybe I had to let it go. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan was very much part of my childhood—a place we would vacation because we had some ancestral roots planted there—but as I've grown it's faded, gone away, and become not just a place no one ever visits, but now it's associated with a side of my family that no one gets along with, speaks of—I think I'm the last person that was up there and that was a good three or four years ago. I know I'm the last person that's spoken with the final family member who still lives there.
Anyway, I think my own familial narrative very much follows along with the Upper Peninsula's story. People are leaving. The economy, long ago driven by mining and more recently by tourism, has all but dried up and gone. And sure, those things are all unique to my family and to the U.P., but I think they're all symptoms that are spread across America today, that a lot of people feel that way right now—the best is behind and we've got whatever we have.
Can you describe your writing practice or process for this collection? Do you have a favorite revision strategy?
For me revision is the fun part. I dread writing. I clean the house, walk the dog, think about taking smoking back up again (maybe briefly do), trim each individual hair in my beard, and do anything I can to get away from it. I love writing, but it's hard. It's scary! I always want my writing to be worth something. I'm always a critic, a skeptic. I'm a worrier of the worst kind and that anxiety comes out in my writing process. Once I do work up the nerve to sit down and get something going, it's always worth all that work. It's instant, total relief. For me the process doesn't really start until after I've done a lot of writing and I'm deep into revision. That's a lot more fun for me—that's the artistic process, I suppose. I often find that my poems take a long time to "become"—I write great big chunks of text and then I chisel away. And then I implement the only real revision or writing strategy that I know: Time. Time to actually write. Time to chisel. Time to let the Earth settle. Time and courage to go back down and mine.
How did you order the poems in the collection? Do you have a specific method for arranging your poems or is it sort of haphazard, like you lay the pages out on the floor and see what order you pick them back up in?
Ordering this book took a while. I wanted all of the section breaks, the text at each of the three acts, to carry or open up some overt themes and for the poems to follow those themes. Each choice was deliberate. Slow. Linking. Recently, I've found that ordering books can be easier (just finished my second manuscript), but at the time it was a tedious process. I would lay everything out, print and reprint, and make a huge mess. It's easier now, less arduous, but maybe just because I've done it once before.
What do you love to find in a poem you read, or love to craft into a poem you're writing?
I never know what I'm about. Instantly, my instinctive answer is to say simplicity. I like to read poems that are welcoming, but still rich with wordplay and imagery—I have a deep want for poetry to be inclusive. Inspiring. And also, very sad. I want to share poetry. But I also realize that art can't always be that way and the asshole in me likes that too. I like to be challenged as I get older and I like to challenge. While I try to craft a lot of my of writing so that folks can come on in easily and accessibly—especially for my friends and family who don't read much poetry—as I've gotten a bit older I do find that I like to revise, edit, and write for weirdness. I enjoy the oddness of obstruction and off beats and trickles of unexpected spacing and wordplay—things that keep the reader on their heels. I'm always at odds with my writing and with poems, I think, because I will always feel self-conscious and inexperienced. There are so many great writers.
Can you share an excerpt from your book? And tell us why you chose this poem for us to read – did it galvanize the writing of the rest of the collection? Is it your book's heart? Is it the first or last poem you wrote for the book?
The excerpt below is from my poem "Awake" and I chose it because my book is so carefully concerned with setting and place and I think this piece lays out a lot of the layers of sediment that cover what my poems are trying so hard to get at—ancestry, inevitability, and the slow crumble and bury of both of those things. For my money too, this poem is one of the pieces that I read and reread and over and over again find hope, no matter how bad.
Another reason I (selfishly) chose it is for the odd and only recently realized fact that, even though much of the narrative is concerned with my family, this is the only poem in which my wife makes an appearance (though indirectly and not in the excerpt below—you'll have to hunt down the poem in entirety to find her).
Fresh flowers are fleeting
and white near my grandfather's house:
carnations. To act courageous,
any act or any struggle
must be entered unwillingly and thus
this daughter named Wakefield--
she is no heroine of mine, least not
in a tale such as we have here
when matter, what is densest
huddles naked, rattling in car
that is conducted by windpipe.
The journey is the travel and my mouth
is a gas tank. Elsewhere,
love is always grasping, but in Wakefield
my ankles creak on a porch with no steps
and years pass through as the bones
walk down my body.
If you had to convince someone walking by you in the park to read your book right then and there, what would you say?
"Hey, free pizza here!"
And then I would hand them a copy of my book, smile, and thank them so much for stopping in the restaurant. If they asked any questions, I'd say, "Move along, pal!"
For you, what is it to be a poet? What scares you most about being a writer? Gives you the most pleasure?
Being a poet or a writer of any kind means being a creep, a voyeur, an eavesdropper, and in all the worst ways. I think all sensible people are those things, but I think all writers are a bit more—poets might even be those things to an oppressive extent. To be a poet is to be more aware than any of the other creeps. I suppose I enjoy that level of consciousness and the sensibilities that come with being constantly aware and always recording. So many half-heard dialogues on the train, trinkets I've found on the ground, and people I've walked past on the street or known in a past life have in someway made their way into my writing. What gives me the most pleasure is going back and rereading my work and recalling how that couplet or a certain image came to be.
Are there other types of writing (dictionaries, romance novels, comics, science textbooks, etc.) that help you to write poetry?
When I struggle to write I stop, pull a book off the shelf, and read it. I read the start, some random page in the middle, the immediate end. It doesn't matter. If reading doesn't get the hair to stand up on the back of your neck then why write at all?
What are you working on now?
I'm just now starting to shop a recently completed poetry manuscript that I co-wrote with writer, filmmaker and fellow poet, T.J. Peters. My best friend. It's titled, You are both the lion and the tamer, the horn not for honking. Because ain't I a woman, the one with shoes untied, a lover in the streets, a cynic in the sheets, the product of a well-adjusted divorce? So tell me your weaknesses but if we're going to split hairs let us use Occam's razor. Do you feel that, zealot? Pinch it to the listening as there is a tremble on the deck and the storm is a'comin', sets unwonder, unafraid, unbecoming in this a book of bad poems for good people—which we have been calling Bad Poems for Good People (ahem, for short). It has been an interesting process because my coauthor lives in California and I live in Chicago and thus the manuscript has come into being in an odd and lovely manner. We send each other prompts—sometimes very random, sometimes focused, sometimes little blurbs that are hardly ideas. One writes a poem from said prompt. The other will then edit or tinker. Back and forth and so on. At this point it is heads or tails where each author begins or ends. Our intent though was to capture the everyday endeavors that make today's Americans so two-sided a story—angry, but empathetic. As it says in the foreword: "The notion was to examine the internal dichotomy in life that makes us slam fist on table, then love the kiss that makes fist stop hurting. This matters. It takes two mindsets to survive. One that recognizes it is in danger, and another that hopes such danger has a soft side. Fight or flight. Love and hate. The big bad and the lesser good."
Keep a heads-up as a couple of the poems will be appearing in the December issue of The Blackstone Review and Peters and I will be featured on their podcast as well.
What book are you reading that we should also be reading?
We're all still reading Infinite Jest, right? Kidding. (But seriously, we're all still trying to read that?)
I've been extremely busy this fall reading for all of my lovely students at the University of Illinois at Chicago so I haven't gotten to do a ton of reading for pleasure, but the last book I read in its entirety was In the Circus of You and it was amazing. You should all read this book. It is insane and dark and beautiful in all the best ways and extremely reread-able. It's an illustrated novel of poems by Nicelle Davis and Cheryl Gross and published by Rose Metal Press. Pick it up for sure.
Without stopping to think, write a list of five poets whose work you would tattoo on your body, or at least write in permanent marker on your clothing, to take with you at all times.
Without stopping? AH! Very quickly I can say with absolute certainty that I would tattoo John Berryman and William Blake on my body because I have already done so—I have the end of Berryman's "Dream Song 14" on my chest ("me, wag.") and I have Blake's "The Ancient of Days" on the inside of my left arm. With less certainty, I will answer that the ghosts of poets George Oppen, James Wright, and Philip Levine are all welcome to tattoo any of their work over all the rest of the skin on my body, but only if it's free because I do not have the cash for all that ink.
What's a question you wish I asked? (And how would you answer it?)
How much money and pie can I give you right now?
All of it.

It's now just over a month until Christmas, which means it's time to start thinking about buying presents (and writing your own Christmas lists too). So what are the best Christmas gifts for a table tennis player?
In this article, I'll go through some of my favourite table tennis gift ideas and show you a few of the things that have made it onto my Christmas list. The first five are stocking fillers (small/cheap gifts). The next five are bigger and more expensive presents.

I must begin by stating my apologizes to everyone, especially Skip, as a result of the respite of this interesting history of Mr. Powell's. Hopefully I'll be 'back on track' now with getting this great story out to all of you...with that, here we go!
'Determining Seat Availability on NC flights was less of an issue, but a labor intensive process. Stations kept system wide Flight Availability Charts, one for each day, "X" days into the future. All NC flights were numerically listed on each days chart with their 'line-of-flight,' for example; 764 SPF RAP PIR ABR ATY MSP.
Central Res Control (CRCRCNC) managed seat inventory, generating many flight status (AVS) messages, like (SS-stop sell, list only) which required stations to put a 'red circle' around indicated sold-out city.
CRCRC could, and often did, generate Limit Sale (LS) messages for a pair of city's for the purpose of generating 'longer-haul' passengers from up-line cities. The city pair on the Seat Availability Chart would be given a blue bracket effectively allowing only 'wait-list' passengers between that city pair. This technique was quite common for North/South bound 15 minute flights via MKE. Many, many AVS seat status messages arrived, requiring red/blue pencil work.
Passenger Rules and Fares Tariff were THE stations passenger ticketing and pricing tool. Updates were published continually by C.C. Squire & Son. It's content, some 4 inches thick, 'governed' fare calculation and related routing rules (a MKG to SFO fare might be vaild via MKE, but not via CHI). For a few itineraries use of a 'hidden' (Example one more distant then passenger destination) would produce a lower fare. Even in those days of relative simplicity, rules and fares were in constant state of change. Keeping abreast of valid travel surcharges, exceptions to 'normal' and disrupted travel (Rule 75), would pale a big city lawyer.
Thank goodness, in those earlier, simpler, golden days, NC Offered only a single class of service, as did most airlines. But, with the arrival of jets (707's, DC-8's and Convair 880's) new classes of service were evolving. Many trunks were adopting 'prime' flights having F (First) and T (Tourist) class plus a few night flights offering reduced Night Coach (FN-TN) fares. JET flights, less common, required a surcharge. It was soon common for all trunk airlines to offer first (A) and coach (T-tourist) class service, and pure-Jet service with an F and Y (coach) cabin. Each service class had its own unique fare, some based on time of departure. At times, surcharges were applicable.
Ticket fare calculation and preparation was a deliberate, manual process. The only available ticketing gadgetry was a ball point pen and a ticket validater (sometimes used as a customer weapon). When prepared, the ticket would be validater 'whacked,' initialed by preparing agent and made ready for delivery. 'Fancy' gadgets like 'routing plates,' some even with embedded fares, came later. Soon to become a SA, one only had to demonstrate the ability to tie only ones shoelaces.
Should a ticket fare be improper or otherwise, one could expect special attention from NC Revenue & Accounting Department, demanding we 'pony-up' cash and/or explain preparation 'logic.' We got pretty good at detail and generating constructive rebuttals after enjoying such notifications.
Ticket payment was mostly cash or check. Credit Cards then were rare, mostly UATP (Universal Air Travel Plan) cards. typically the result of airline trade-out agreements - the original corporate travel card. Checks were common, their acceptance comparable to tip-toeing through a landmine field!
Check acceptance required 3 types of identification, each recorded on check reverse side. In the 1950's and 60's, it was common for some folks not to have such, this use of Library Cards, etc. Others became 'disturbed' (substitute word) to think we could ask 'them for such. A famous character 'objected' to such a request, he walked away - Mr. McGoo thought his 'comic character trumped out requirement - Not!
At times we compromised. However, if that check bounced, liability belonged to the accepting agent. Of course, Rev & Acct folks would issue their demands. I, at times, was guilty, but often successful in my direct passenger collection contracts. One was for $60-$70 bucks, big money. I found the check writer, after maybe a dozen 'on-my-knees' pleading letters and several months - the money arrived.
Ticket selling, PSGR Check-In, excess baggage collections (40 lb limit) along with handling mail, REA (Railway Express Air) express, and fright happened concurrently with such flight handling as In-Range reports, Ramp Checks and ramp work. ATY was favored with four flights in a short period, people were checking in, while earlier flights arrived/departed. Time management was critical.
Cash was strictly accountable. If your cash drawer at shifts end was short, you paid up; be it a dime, a dollar or ten. If over....well, ya know. Some stations, in which I later worked, kept an unofficial (unauthorized) slush fund for this purpose. I never saw one with but a few coins (no paper).
My first big ATY event was a 30 day October vacation without pay. WHY? I permitted the boarding of a nice NC non-rev co-pilot and beautiful stewardess as passengers #27 and #28 on a 26 seat ATY MSP flight. Shades of bad luck, also on board was a FAA guy who took his job seriously, thus my up-paid vacation. I was invited to attend a 'fact-finding' meeting in MSP, chaired by R.H. Baker, the Stations Superintendent. Couple days later, Baker called Sherman and said, 'fire him.' But Bossman Sherman saved my bacon, telling Baker he had already administered severe discipline, '30 days off without pay.' Bakers response, 'oh well, that will have to do,' maybe thinking 'duel' punishment would become a union (ALEA) issue?
Some 15 years later, having worked several years in the GO, still thinking some Mr. Baker had given me the '30 days,' one early morning I walked into his office and asked, 'why didn't you fire me as Sherman expected?' His reply, 'cause a replacement might do the same dumb thing and I expected you had learned a lesson.' It was not until the year, 2008, I learned that Bossman Sherman had saved my bacon, I'm thinking he did not want to train another fishing and etc. partner.
That lesson stuck with me. Some years later, on a nice Sunday morning, we had a full DC-3. Some how, a 27th PSGR had boarded (Stews could not count to 26, but readily recognized 27) and was walking the aisle in search of a seat - exciting the Stew. I having the duty, pleaded for a volunteer to deplane. Adding this plane will not move until someone de-planed - no volunteers. Would you believe (naw, but true, it was a Sunday) my co-agent came on the DC-3, whispered in a passengers ear, 'sir, you have a telephone call.' Yep, he deplaned. Problem solved, flight saluted off the ramp. The former passenger was less than happy!

Adelaide. "City of Churches" as it's aptly named AND city of serial killers as James likes to quip. Don't read too far into the reference of serial killers, because these are isolated incidents and it's more of a running joke at this point than anything else. Adelaide is an incredibly safe, laid-back city with friendly…Read More
No Place Like Home
There's no place like home. Was the phrase coined in the ground-breaking film about escapism and regret called Wizard of Oz? No, it actually first occurred in a song adaptation from an opera published in 1823 called Home! Sweet Home! Having spent years of my young adult life rebelling from "the nest" and wanting to establish independence from…Read More
What's Going On?
What's Going On? I remember the Marvin Gaye song so vividly. Some songs are timeless because they have a universal message whether that be a message of love or heartbreak or a lesson we've all had to learn at some point. The song, What's Going On? is relevant again because history keeps repeating itself. I…Read More
Gay Christian
Gay Christian. Twenty years ago the two terms would never be seen next to each other. Today it's a different story. This blog is about my twenty plus year struggle with the church and how I've come to reconcile it through the help of God. Ironic, isn't it? Perhaps. Perhaps Not. I remember being a…Read More

Three Juneau-Douglas High School students won awards at the Alaska State Science and Engineering Fair in March for projects that studied herring habitats and glacial recession.
Eric Schumacher was awarded for his project, "Habitat Suitability for Juvenile Pacific Herring using Energetics and Stable Isotopes," which was conducted at the Auke Bay Laboratories. Clem Taylor-Roth and Tristan Walker-Andrews were also awarded for their project, "Glacial Recession and Primary Succession," which was conducted on the Juneau Icefield.
Both projects won their category awards as well as a Best Abstract Award. Schumacher's project earned the top prize from the Alaska Fly Fishers Association, and Taylor Roth and Walker-Andrews' project received the Chugiak Gem and Mineral Society's Grand Prize Award.
According to a release, the students participated in Anchorage because Juneau has not had enough participants to hold a local high school fair for the past two years.

While beards and mustache are a part and parcel of manhood, not all men are able to sprout healthy thick beards. There are several reasons why your beard may not be growing. You cannot fight your genes but you can still find ways to help grow your beard. Here are a few truths about beards and their growth patterns.
1.To begin with, know that to grow a complete beard you will need two to three months based on the rate at which your hair grows; not everyone's hair growth rate is the same. So do not be disheartened if your friend grows a beard faster than you; your time will come. Be patient.
- Age is a big factor with regard to the kind of beard you end up with. In your adolescence, you will begin with peach fuzz and stubble that refuses to be coarse. Once again be patient there is no magic potion. By the time you are 22 or 23 your beard will start to fill up and the best beards are when you are in your 30s and 40s.
- Different areas grow at different pace hence it is very common to see the stubble on the chin appear long before you see anything on your cheeks. You must wait for your cheeks to catch up before you use any clippers and shape your beard.
- Following a good cleansing regime will ensure that you are getting rid of dead cells clogging the pores around the hair and allowing better circulation of blood in the area. Use good quality shampoos once or twice a week. Do not overlook the use of conditioner which will detangle the hair and keep it smooth and soft. Finally moisturize the skin regularly. Beard growth oil is considered to not only moisturize but also stimulate hair growth.
You cannot change your genes but you can adopt a healthy lifestyle, diet and beard care regime to maintain and grow a beard that you can be proud of.…

Appearing on FOX NEWS Sunday with Chris Wallace on Feb. 3, former Navy Capt. Mark Kelly said of the 1994 "assault weapons" ban: "I don't know if it worked or not. I mean, I haven't looked at all the statistics."
In order words, Kelly has spent the past few weeks calling for an "assault weapons" ban, but he has no idea whether the first one did any good or not.
This is why gun owners get nervous every time people start throwing the word "ban" around after a high visibility crime takes place. Kelly doesn't even know whether the ban he's pushing will work, yet he has given testimony at the Senate Judiciary Committee on gun violence (Jan. 30), pushed for it on FOX NEWS, and launched his own gun control group to support it anyway.
For the record, professors Chris Koper and Jeff Roth complied a report on the first "assault weapons" ban three years after its implementation and found it had no "meaningful effect" on crime. Ten years after the ban had been in place, one of their colleagues did another study and said he could not "clearly credit the ban with any of the nation's…drop in gun violence."
But this won't matter to Kelly, who's already made it that in his mind, a ban that makes it "more difficult for criminals and the mentally ill to get assault weapons and high capacity magazines and guns in general…will save lives."
Does Kelly really think criminals will abide by the ban?

Mother posts scary warning to parents about tick paralysis after young daughter can't walk
A Oregon mother is warning other parents after some scary moments where her young daughter started to have trouble standing and walking.
In a viral video posted to her Facebook page on May 13, Amanda Lewis wrote that her daughter Evelyn started acting strange around bedtime and by morning she had a hard time standing and could barely walk or crawl.
After taking the girl to the emergency room, a doctor said it likely could be tick paralysis and started searching the girl's body.
Lewis said a tick eventually was found on her daughter's head hidden by her hair.
The video has been viewed more than 5 million times. Lewis wanted others to see it as a warning. She posted an update saying Evelyn is now back to her normal self.
"My husband and I are still in shock that this happened to our baby girl and I'm glad we were able to spread some awareness about this," Lewis wrote.

University Consortium Okinawa Presents
The 2015 Second Student Summit
On Saturday, December 19, 2015, the 2015 Second Student Summit was held at Bankoku Shinryokan (Nago, Okinawa), which more than 230 people, including university students from inside and outside the prefecture, high school students from Okinawa Prefecture, and others, attended.
This student summit was planned by a student conference that consisted of students from eleven institutions of higher education in Okinawa Prefecture.
The summit was held with many objectives. University students in Okinawa gathered together to spread the intellect network among students. By deepening ties between specific academic organizations and collecting wisdom, they hoped to release students' unknown possibilities and contribute to the stimulation and development of a regional society. In addition, the summit was held for the purpose of developing universal human resources as an international currency.
In the opening ceremony, Ryukyu dance and eisa were gorgeously presented. Students from the Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts performed Kagiyadefu as an opening Ryukyu dance for the ceremony, along with performances of sanshin, taiko, and fue. It became a solemn opening.
Kariyushi-taiko gave a lively eisa performance.
After that, Ms. Sakurako Hokama, a student representative and a student at Okinawa Christian University, gave a greeting in English, and Mr. Eiki Senaha, Director of the Consortium of Universities in Okinawa, also welcomed the attendees.
After the greetings, Ambassador to the United Nations Mr. Kiyotaka Akasaka, a former United Nations spokesman for the Undersecretary-General and the director of the Foreign Press Center, gave the keynote speech on the theme "Is the world of 2030 peaceful?"
During the keynote speech, he discussed population change in the world and in Japan, the arrival of an Asian century, an analysis of the Chinese government, the function of United Nations, Japanese International initiatives, and Asian values. He concluded with the following: "To keep a peaceful world, we have to sweat. For that, young people should pool their power and be actively involved worldwide, and you have to contribute to the solution of various initiatives and problems. The answer to the question of whether the world of 2030 will be peaceful or not is yes. It will be peaceful if you put forth an effort to accomplish it."
During questions and answers after speech, university students and high school students asked many questions, such as the necessity of the Japan-US Security Treaty and whether the United Nations is necessary, and it was a lively event.
Following that, Mr. Satoshi Abe, chief of the Recruitment Center for International Organizations in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, gave career guidance. Then the morning session was finished.

Attendees listening intently
In the afternoon sessions, participants separated into 20 groups and conducted discussion on themes in ten fields: religion, culture, sports, the environment, the economy, tourism, education, legislation, gender, science and technology, and peace. Ten joint statements, one from each field, were issued at the end of discussions. (The drafts of the joint statements)① Religion
Peace means that everybody is smiling. There are no wars related to religion. We must establish an attitude of accepting religious differences. Each school should actively pursue multi-culture and religious studies in order for people to better understand our differences. In order to accept these differences, there are a lot of things we should do, for example, changing education. Not every draws their own conclusions, but we need to think of solutions. It is important to thinking about solutions②©Culture
Peace is a situation where the person who is in front of me and I are laughing. How can you create peace? When you meet someone, if one person does not open their mind, they cannot be friends. Also, know our own country. In Okinawa, know how to play sanshin. Know yourself and tell others about it. It will simply lead to interaction. To be smiling with Okinawan culture is kachashi, a dance performed by many dancers joining together with their hands waving that is performed at special occasions. Not only Okinawans but also foreigners and people from other prefectures can smile. To tell the spirit of kachashi might be connected to peace. In conclusion, if culture exchanges are started, it will lead to peace.③ Sports
There is a close connection between sports and peace. For example, after Iraq and America became involved in a war, the year before last, wrestling was almost deleted as an Olympic event. At that time, athletes from the two countries wrestled together. It is a fact that all nations cannot attend the Olympics. We need to repair that. It is necessary to spread the joy of sports.④ The Environment
As the environmental field is wide, the image of it is different for each person. There is the working environment, the natural environment, life environment, educational environment, and so on. The most important thing is to know that it is the beginning of everything. There are many things that can be done. It is important to know what one can do now. First of all, share information that you know. This is the one thing that we can all do.⑤ The Economy
We discussed the economy in Okinawa and in the world. How can we develop the Okinawan economy, and how we can increase tourism in Okinawa? Even though many people come to Okinawa for sightseeing, they do not consume much in Okinawa. How can we make money circulation more active? One suggestion is to invite a famous musician to Okinawa to have a live concert to help increase the spending of money here. There were also other suggestions. As Okinawan culture is a food culture, we should focus on making places to eat Okinawan food. In the case of looking at the world, there are problems in education, population, poverty, and differential gaps. One idea is that rich countries should support poor countries. By supporting children in education, the children can study, and that will lead to the development of the next generation, and the country will become developed. Then differential gaps will decrease and there will be no more fighting.⑥ Tourism
We thought of tourism and peace. Although there are a lot of tourists in Okinawa, we doubted whether we communicate with them or not. We think this hangs over peace because peace starts with mutual understanding. Mutual understanding is to send out the message that we understand each other's history and culture, and then to communicate with each other, so we thought about what we could do. First, in the near feature, by 2020, we should know about other countries and let them know about our country, get rid of terrorism, and aim to establish world peace. In 2025, the world economy will be better, and the gap between rich and poor will disappear, and the cost of airfare will be cheaper and the number of routes will increase. People will be able to go anywhere. To know other country will become common, so in 2030, people will know more about other countries. As a result of mutual understanding of each other, neighboring countries can be at peace and so can the rest of the world.⑦ Education
We thought that peace equals education. Peace is obviously linked to education. In the education session, it was hard to unify our opinions. One thing we could agree on was to learn to coexist and to accept various opinions in order to make a peaceful world and to educate people to go along with it. By concerning ourselves with other countries, we can learn about them. One opinion was to eliminate justice, to get rid of a fixed way of justice. Thinking about the reasons that wars start, we realized that each person has his or her own sense of justice, and those opinions clash with each other. If there were no fixed idea of justice, people would accept each other. Then wars would not appear. It was a great opportunity that we could discuss this topic like this.⑧ Legislation
First, we defined what peace is. Peace is the condition of no poverty and also no international disputes. The condition where no poverty exists is the ultimate peace. However, making this situation real requires considerable time and effort, so we tried to define political peace, that is to say, the condition of no international disputes. Nevertheless, we did not come to a conclusion. Next, we investigated the connections between legislation and peace. We found a representative one, that is, the renunciation of war in article 9 of the Japanese Constitution. In order to solve an international dispute, international law will be involved, but in China, there is the reality that the Chinese Communist Party has a higher rank than legislative or government ones. For that reason, there was an opinion to doubt in the solving of international disputes. Next, to solve the problem of poverty for those at the bottom, we thought to define what it is. Poverty means the condition of a lack of a minimum standard of housing, food, and clothing. We thought it is indispensable to solve the poverty problem through international cooperation. Finally, we discussed what we could do by 2030. Assistance from advanced nations and immigration limitations are issues. Things that we can do from now on are to increase the activities of the Self-Defense Forces of Japan, to reduce the difficulty of finding employment, to enrich social security, and so on. In the end, we came to the conclusion that if we bolster the United Nations, it would lead to the establishment of peace through legislation and politics. This is an ideal idea, but the establishment of a world government or the appearance of some person like the character in the animation One Pease would be good for world peace.⑨ Gender
First of all, we extracted problems under present conditions. There is a sexual distinction between men and women, and it has become an issue of public concern. When women leave society in order to bring up children, it becmes hard for them to come back. On the other hand, it is not yet recognized in our society to become a househusband. The second problem is LGBT, lesbians, male homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgender people, who have also suffered from discriminative elements. Discussing the issue from the assumption of eliminating discrimination by 2030, we should create a society that permits LGBT, and as a mid-term plan, to delete the label LGBT. In the end, we need to make a society that recognizes that these people are absolutely normal. The existence of these words themselves was pointed out as a social distinction rooted in society. If these words were gone, these people would become natural in worldly terms. We came to the conclusion that if this movement keeps spreading from the popular level to the governmental level, and around the world, in 2030, sexual distinctions will be eliminated and world peace will come.⑩ Science and technology
In the area of science and technology and peace, we had a discussion with a view that science technology should not become a tool of a war. We will think through step one of "Share・Wild・Wide・Vision" (Share・Global・Wide・Vision). Aiming to reach this point, we should make a legal framework of laws for ideal science and technology in the world. On this point, various countries have promoted science technology their own way, so they have set much value on maintaining their own way without being a slave to the law. In such an environment, it is said that science and technology tends to go toward the bad side, but originally, it existed above such concerns, and curiosity helped technology advance and develop beyond them. A head full of curiosity does not equal being bad, so in order to prevent negative results, educating each scientist is necessary. It is also important in general to educate people in how to use science. We need education both inside and outside the science and technology sector. We concluded that to make a good society, we want to use science technology.
In the discussion sessions, more than 200 participants discussed peace. University student deepened their interactions with high school students and other university students, and could also made social ties both vertically and laterally. It became a very meaningful opportunity.

Presentation of cooperation statements in each field
In the closing ceremony, Kariyushi-daiko and Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts students performed a dance display as a collaboration. At the end, everybody danced kachashi together, and the summit ended as a very big success. At the end of the program, Mr. Souichiro Kayou, the president of the student summit and a Ryukyu University student, gave a closing address, and the student summit concluded.

I have been blogging here for lots of years, but I'd never tried to use this format to do anything more than just exercise my writing muscles. I'd heard about people who supposedly make money with blogs, but it wasn't until recently that I actually met the sister of someone who supports her entire family solely through her blog. That pushed me to read How to Blog for Profit (Without Selling Your Soul) by Ruth Soukup, which introduced me a a slew of women, just like me, who are supporting their families exercising those writing muscles.
I had never considered this to be something that might work for our family, until the start of 2014 when we started feeling more and more that God wanted us to devote additional time to feet-on-the-ground service to our ministry in Nicaragua. We've never been supported as most missionaries are, so how can we pay the bills if we reduce our consulting workload?
Maybe, just maybe, this might be an possibility for us? Who knows. I figured it was at least worth a shot. I'd rather write and sell ads than pound the pavement asking my friends and family for monthly donations. Maybe that makes me a wimp. Maybe I'm just delaying the inevitable. I don't know. But any advertising I get through my writing helps support our ministry in Nicaragua, so that's a good thing.
about me
I am a "creative type" who finds writing truly cathartic. I write about the big stuff in my life—my family, my faith, my work—with some of the slightly smaller stuff thrown in (cooking, music, books, travel, and so on).
the stuff that pays the bills
Over the past two decades, I've spent a lot of time in front of a computer (always a Mac, by the way). Although my degree is in illustration, I've worked predominately as a graphic designer and art director, technical consultant, editor and writer. My current day job is the Communications Director for a large church in the southeast US. Check out my resume to learn more, or contact me.
the stuff that makes it all worthwhile
In addition, my family and I have spent an increasing amount of time in community service and mission work. Specifically, as a foster family in the U.S., and as independent missionaries in Nicaragua.
In Nicaragua, we primarily serve with these groups/organizations:
- Campo Alegría — the sister camp to Chop Point (in Maine), both of which are run by my in-laws
- ABWE & SEEDS Nicaragua — a sewing ministry run by the Woughter family
- Families in Transition in Nicaragua — This is the ministry we founded to create an adoption care community

A Pastry Chef, also known as a Patissier, works with raw ingredients to create pastry goods. Pastry Chefs are employed in a variety of settings, including hotels, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, bakeries, caterers and bistros.
A Pastry Chef requires formal training, usually undertaken as part of an apprenticeship. A Pastry Chef will rely upon advanced culinary skills and passion for cooking, in addition to a reasonable level of physical fitness and stamina, to succeed.
A Pastry Chef, in addition to following detailed and sometimes complex recipes to produce pastry items, may also be responsible for preparing budgets and ordering supplies. They may also supervise apprentices and other kitchen staff.
Typically, a Pastry Chef works with fairly small quantities and thus, they do most of the work by hand. This requires measuring, weighing and sifting ingredients, kneading dough, greasing tins and pans, and preparing breads, pies, cakes, biscuits, pies and doughnuts.
In an industrial bakery, a Pastry Chef is more likely to supervise the operation of machines that weigh, mix and shape ingredients.
