Clergy Delegate Dan Dick has written new blog posts recapping his latest General Conference experiences on his blog, United Methodeviations: Crowdsourcing General Conference, GC2016- Day Five, We Have a New Story to Tell, and A Tale of Two Conferences. Check back for more updates from Dan and other Wisconsin representatives tomorrow!
Prayers, Paper Lanterns at Climate Vigil
An evening climate vigil May 12 featured lanterns lit by small LED lights, music and testimony from United Methodists around the world and a prayer space outside the General Conference legislative sessions. Linda Bloom has the story, which features a photo of our delegate Katie Crise. Read story and post a comment,
May 13 Wrap-Up: Laity Address, State of the Church Report
After several days where General Conference delegates were clearly divided over Rule 44, on Day Four, they were urged repeatedly to work together, and shown examples of the good the church can do when it heeds that advice. In other news, demonstrations surrounding climate change, immigration and the church's stance on homosexuality were held. Joey Butler reports. Read story and post a comment.
Bishop Dyck Says Pope Inspired Her
During Friday morning worship, Bishop Sally Dyck said Pope Francis has inspired her with his announcement calling for a year of mercy. She isn't converting, but said she wants to be "part of a church that has a year of mercy, a decade of mercy, a millennium of mercy." Anne Marie Gerhardt has the story. Read story and post a comment.
What Can Churchgoers Do Together?
Throughout Friday morning, the delegates heard news that might surprise some: United Methodists together are doing great things that bring God's reign into the world. Both the Connectional Table, which coordinates the work of church agencies, and the General Council on Finance and Administration, the denomination's finance agency, gave reports that highlighted the good United Methodists do as a global church. Heather Hahn reports. Read story and post a comment.
Immigration Rally Calls for End to Deportations
For United Methodists gathering for lunchtime witness on May 13 at the Oregon Convention Center plaza, the phrase "Stop deportations" was a rallying cry. As the Rev. Rosanna Panizo, academic dean of the Methodist seminary in Peru, pointed out, faith both inspires and demands that Methodists take a stand on immigration rights. Linda Bloom reports. Read story and post a comment,
Bumpy Start for GC2016
The third day of General Conference 2016 saw more conflict over whether delegates should use iPads or old-fashioned placards to signal a desire to speak on the plenary floor. Some participants said prolonged debate over rules and procedures illustrated the lack of trust here and the challenges of being a global church. Sam Hodges reports. Read story and post a comment.

Pivot3's entry in the VDI market with its vSTAC appliances, more than two years ago, has generated strong interest from users intent on harnessing the full power of virtualization.
The Pivot3 vSTAC R2S P-Cubed starter appliance was introduced to allow organizations to deploy a pilot environment of 100+ desktops in under one hour, while eliminating the storage sizing and configuration challenges commonly associated with VDI deployments.
The Pivot3 solution is designed for easy scaling through simple addition of vSTAC R2S appliances. The fail-safe nature of the vSTAC technology and the single point of control administration presents compelling value for VDI users.
"With the roll-out of the hyper-converged blade appliance, Pivot3 effectively delivers VDI to users for whom an investment in blades is a good fit. Vastly larger organizations can now experience the benefits of the vSTAC R2S appliance but in a denser hardware configuration that is more economical to operate while supporting up to tens of thousands of desktops," said Mike Dunbar, Vice President of Pivot3's Hyper-Converged Solutions business. "Our new blade appliance offers peace of mind to customers who administer massive desktop deployments. Our automatic re-allocation of hyper-converged resources allows for multiple drive failures or even complete compute node failures with rapid reparation as components come back online. Quite simply, we are a much more capacity efficient virtual SAN"
With Pivot3 vSTAC® hyper-converged appliances, all storage and performance resources are shared across the virtual desktops, but with the ultimate protection of high availability for compute, network, and storage. Unlike alternative architectures that require anticipation of future growth when buying conventional shared storage, Pivot3 deployments elastically grow as workloads increase simply by adding additional appliances. Customers can their limit investment to the capacity they need right now when initiating a VDI project; changes in desktop usage are seamlessly and economically accommodated as needs grow. Pivot3's technology load balances, manages and converges all hosting resources.
Increased ROI and lower TCO
Pivot3 solutions improve IT efficiency. The blade appliance concept greatly decreases the time it takes to architect, plan and manage a virtual desktop environment, specifically for high-volume applications. The solution automates routine IT tasks, leaving more time for higher value IT work. Additionally, the vSTAC OS dramatically improves storage efficiency by providing up to 92% usable storage capacity as compared to 50% or less in other hyper-converged infrastructures.
The Pivot3 blade appliance is managed by the vSTAC OS software, which runs on the hypervisor, converging all the blade resources across the cluster to provide maximum system availability. The vSTAC OS creates a true common storage pool, which distributes data and volume across all storage resources in the cluster. Distribute erasure coding calculates parity internally to each blade and distributes across the cluster to protect against storage failures in a significantly more efficient manner than other scale-out appliances that only offer simple replication.
"We've designed our vSTAC OS to dynamically adapt the storage required for desktop virtualization workloads, while simplifying deployment and enhancing the user experience," said Bill Galloway, CTO and Co-Founder, Pivot3. "For blade-based, high-density virtual desktop installations, the Pivot3 vSTAC HCIA blade appliance provides an extremely cost-effective and easy-to-deploy solution that meets the needs of current and future VDI environments."
Pivot3 blade appliances leverage the latest release of vSTAC OS software, which includes:
- ElastiCache™ employing 4-64 GB RAM and SSD flash tier for read and write caching
- Building block modular scalability
- Automatically load balances, protects and aggregates resources across the array and across desktops sharing all resources at all times
- Superior maintenance and software upgrade experience. If an appliance is taken offline, VM's migrate to an available space and continue to function with no downtime.

The precious oil is extracted from the seeds of prickly pear cactus plant. After taking out the seeds from the fruits, they are adequately dried and then cold pressed to obtain the oil. Indeed, the prickly seed oil is quite expensive. Well, that is understandable when you consider the fact that the seeds are really tiny and each seed contain only about 5% of oil in it at most, plus the seeds are usually handpicked from the fruits. This means it will take tons of these seeds to produce just one bottle of the oil for commercial purpose. But from its medical properties to its culinary importance, skin lightening, moisturizing, and protection abilities, down to its extraordinary hair care properties, prickly seed oil has got lots of excellent rewards for anyone who pays the price.

What should auctioneers know as the key distinguishing factors between a for-profit or a commercial auction and a nonprofit or a benefit auction? There are three key components that are different. One is the purpose of the auction. Two is the motivation of the buyer. Three is the style of the auction.
Let's look first at the types of auctions in commercial auctions and compare them with the types of auctions for benefit auctions. Look at the myriad of commercial auction opportunities. There are art auctions, antiques and collectables, real estate – commercial and residential, industrial, manufacturing, and heavy equipment auctions, coins and stamps, industrial property, automobiles, motorcycles, agriculture, livestock and ranch, firearms, bankruptcy, business surplus and liquidations. Those are just a few of the specialties in commercial auctions.
Now you can look at some of the specialties in benefit auctions including animal causes, arts and culture, education, environmental causes, healthcare auctions, hospital auctions, human and social services, groups that serve people with disabilities, international and foreign affairs, professional societies and trade associations, public and societal benefit auctions, religious and faith based, and sports and recreation groups. There are so many specialties within our wonderful industry of auctions.
Let's go back and look at those main purposes. The main difference is the purpose of the auction. In a commercial auction we are selling, marketing, and promoting goods to buyers who are motivated to purchase at the best price. In a benefit auction the goal is to raise as much money as possible and there are some side benefits to create awareness of the cause, to have fun, create a social event for major donors, and to cultivate guests to involve them in long-term giving. Those are two differences. The purpose and motivation of the buyer.
When you look at the motivation of the buyer at a benefit auction it is to support the organization financially. At a commercial auction a buyer wants to get the most they can for the least amount of money. The job of a benefit auctioneer at a charity auction is to get the buyer to spend the most money to support the organization and feel great about it.
The third difference is the style. This is where it is critical for auctioneers who are moving into the benefit auction realm to know that there is a difference in the benefit auction chant. For example, in terms of speed, the pace of the benefit auction is about two minutes an item. However, in a commercial auction you can sell 100 to 150 lots per hour. The other interesting piece about a benefit auction is that the pre-auction consulting and pre-auction planning plays a critical role in how much funds you can raise and this is actually a whole industry in specialization within the benefit auction field. So those are the three main differences: the purpose, the motivation of the buyer, and the style of the auction.

Being human means uttering words or doing acts that you may not be particularly proud of in hindsight. You likely also have had to endure words or acts from others that were hurtful, if not damaging. These negative emotions and energy can be released through forgiveness. In forgiving yourself and others, you liberate yourself from the shackles of the past to find peace. Experience practical and easy-to-use forgiveness practices for yourself or others. Enter into a new level of grace and ease in more of your relationships.

M. K. Joseph
b. 1914 d. 1981
" The poem is an object which we make and set down, like an antique torso in an abandoned city, good, self-sufficient, durable, waiting for the people to come back. - M K Joseph "
Jump to navigation
b. 1914 d. 1981
" The poem is an object which we make and set down, like an antique torso in an abandoned city, good, self-sufficient, durable, waiting for the people to come back. - M K Joseph "
M. K. (Michael Kennedy) Joseph was among the foremost New Zealand writers of his generation, both as poet and novelist.
Born in Chingford, Essex to Catholic parents, who, after some years in post-war Belgium and France, immigrated to New Zealand in 1923, he gained degrees at Auckland and Oxford before serving in World War II with the Royal Field Artillery. In 1946 he joined the Auckland University English Department, retiring, as a professor, in 1979.
Joseph's war experiences form the basis not only for some fine poems but also for the novels I'll Soldier No More and A Soldier's Tale. His works include science fiction, a university novel, historical romance, and a major study of Byron.
Joseph's preferred definition of a poem was an old-fashioned one: "it is an artefact made with words." This, he said, corresponded to his sense, in composing poetry, "of dealing with something which has a distinct shape, and in which the effort of shaping is itself the general, controlling activity." In short, inclining neither to the confessional nor the prophetic, he is the poet as "maker." But his craftsmanship serves meditations on the seen and the unseen that are rich with sensory content and fully engage the reader's intellect, feelings, and imagination. He can conduct a logical argument on freewill to a fervent climax and elucidate abstract concepts by way of exempla from the material world.
Steeped in the literature and art of Western high-culture, Joseph draws also on popular fantasy of his day―movies, comics, radio drama. Typically "Mars Ascending", with its contrasting halves of turbulence and peace, is "for" Jet Morgan, the BBC's fictional space traveller of the 1950s, and Sandro Botticelli. Joseph's repertoire includes witty pastiches of Chaucer and Blake, the brilliantly sportive "The Rosy Cats of Dr Paracelsus", and the satire on Kiwi philistinism "Secular Litany". Identifiable New Zealand subject-matter is rare in Joseph's verse, though the Mercury Bay of his seaside "Eclogue" is where Captain James Cook put ashore to observe the transit of Mercury in 1769.
"Drunken Gunners" (one of three sonnets read here) is energized by its paradoxes and sense of the disproportion between cause and effect: soldiers "pickled to the gills" move with the choreographed precision of dancers as an artillery captain's calm connecting of two dots on a map foreshadows the destruction of a faraway target. In other poems Joseph's own perspective on cityscapes, people, art, events, and places is apt to move, like a cinematic camera's, from close-up to distant long shot. Time and the heavens brood over all. Joseph's cultivated, undemonstrative voice matches the tone of his poems, allowing their significance to build quietly in the listener's mind.

By Ali Lee, Vikes Communications
August 21, 2013, Victoria, BC (ISN) – The University of Victoria Vikes women's field hockey team departed today for their pre-season tour, where they will face Yale, Harvard and Dartmouth before the start of the Canada West season.
It is a special year for head coach Lynne Beecroft, who will celebrate her 30th season at the helm, with a squad that boasts three rookies and several third and fourth-year athletes. In addition, the Vikes will play host to the CIS National Championship, Oct. 31-Nov. 2, for the sixth time since the McCrae Cup was first awarded in 1975. The Vikes have won two of their total 11 national championships on home soil
"We may be hosting the championship this year but we want to deserve and earn our spot at the tournament," said Beecroft. "We are heading to Boston to start building our toolbox to become as complete as can be to be ready for this season."
That toolbox starts with the returning veterans on the team including senior and midfielder Kyla Kirby, who brings a variety of leadership skills on and off the pitch. The Vikes will also return Kathleen Leahy, who recently returned from a summer of hockey with both the junior and senior Canadian national teams. Leahy helped Canada to a 14thplace finish at the 2013 Junior World Cup in July.
Additionally, fourth-year Kayleen Van der Ree will be a tenacious presence up front, while second-year Mei Lin Cheung will provide a lot of speed in the midfield. ForwardAmanda Kurianowicz will likely be the most lethal scorer for the Vikes. The Calgary native competed with Alberta at the Canadian Senior National Championship, where they finished fifth overall.
New additions to the Vikes roster include goalkeeper Larissa Piva and forward Emily Bennett, both from Kamloops, as well as midfielder Kira Starr from Toronto. The Vikes will also return forward Stefanie Hatch who took last season off.
The Vikes will face ivy league competition in Yale (Aug. 24 at 11:00 a.m.), Harvard (Aug. 26 at 8 a.m.) and Dartmouth (Aug. 27 at 11 a.m.) before returning home for the beginning of the Canada West season.
The Vike will select 16 of their 18-man roster to travel Sept. 21-22 for their opening weekend against Calgary and will return for their home openers on Sept. 28-29 versus UBC. The three-team Canada West conference will mean that only the top team other than Victoria will qualify for nationals. Two teams from the eastern OUA conference will also join to make the four-team tournament complete.
"It being my 30th year doesn't make much of a difference to me," added Beecroft , who guided the Vikes to CIS gold in her 25th season in Victoria in 2008. "I see every day as a new day and another day to coach these young ladies to achieve the best they can."
Beecroft will also have the help of long-time assistant coach Krista Thompson who enters her 16th season with the Vikes. Thompson spent the summer working with the Canadian senior and junior national teams, including touring with the team to Ireland.
