Ashley's Voice Outreach Advocate Group
For 20 years, the Tennessee Justice Center (TJC) has been standing with vulnerable Tennessee families and helping them access basic necessities of life. After Congress placed restrictions on legal services programs, community and bar leaders from all parts of our state, and from every part of the political spectrum, came together to form TJC. Without their leadership, our clients for the last 20 years would have had nowhere to turn.
TJC uses the law, education, and advocacy to fight red tape and ensure our neighbors have the necessities they need to thrive. TJC makes a strategic and outsized positive impact on the state: millions of Tennesseans have benefited from TJC's work. Every $1 donated to TJC generated $295 in essential services like health care and nutrition for vulnerable Tennesseans in 2015-2016.
Serving Clients
TJC's work is rooted in the experience of individual Tennesseans whom we serve as clients – children with disabilities whose HMOs deny health care their doctors ordered, seniors needing long-term care at home to avoid institutionalization, families who wrongly lose their insurance coverage, mothers who need prenatal care, and many more. The real experiences of these hard-working, courageous Tennesseans struggling with red tape inspire us and drive our work. We are so grateful to be a part of their stories. Watch the video below to hear 20 years of TJC voices, and consider a donation to help our life-saving work continue for more families like these.
Leveraging Knowledge
TJC builds capacity in the community and makes its limited resources have a larger impact by partnering with hundreds of agencies and individuals around the state. People who serve or intersect with our clients rely on TJC's knowledge, training, and resources in best helping their constituents. Medical staff, social workers, religious and community leaders, other nonprofits, juvenile court workers, and many more attend TJC's trainings, use our resources, and refer clients to us. In 2016, 36,712 Tennesseans gained health care through community partners who were trained and supported by TJC.
Moving Systems
TJC uses the insights from clients and community partners to identify and address policy or system problems. TJC has built relationships with state and federal agencies, elected officials, and other policymakers to educate them about issues that impact our neighbors, and are frequently consulted by state and national lawmakers when legislation is proposed that affects public benefits programs. Perhaps more importantly, TJC empowers community members to understand issues that affect them and work with elected officials to resolve them. Most recently, TJC has joined hundreds of community leaders and partner organizations around the state in efforts to close the coverage gap and expand health insurance to all Tennesseans who need it.
TJC also uses the law to hold government accountable for its most vulnerable people. Selected successes include:
- Wilson v Gordon, which allows Tennesseans whose TennCare health insurance applications are delayed (some for many months) the right to appeal.
- Binta B v Gordon (formerly Grier v Goetz), which secured appeal rights for individuals whose TennCare HMOs denied services ordered by their doctors.
- John B v Emkes, which improved health care for over 750,000 Tennessee children by ensuring they had access to all medically necessary services ordered by their doctor.
- Rosen v Goetz, which ensured that Tennesseans were granted notice and appeal rights when the State sought to terminate their TennCare eligibility.
- Newberry v Goetz, which ensured people with disabilities and seniors have access to comparable services at home rather than a nursing home.
TJC has achieved these results with very limited resources through the strength of its partnerships. Monumental pro bono support that has been offered by interns, volunteers, individual attorneys, and private firms across Tennessee and the nation. We join our clients, partners, and ordinary, hard-working Tennesseans in fighting for fairness and justice for all.
Year End Letters
At the end of every year, TJC sends out letters to update our supporters of the progress that we have made in the past 12 months. The letters show the process of our growth, and here you can see the letters we've sent out since 2000.

Mote Marine Laboratory is an independent, nonprofit marine science organization founded in 1955 with five Florida campuses from Sarasota to the Florida Keys. Mote scientists conduct research in the oceans surrounding all seven continents.
With more than 20 research programs, the Lab emphasizes conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. Originally focused on sharks and other fishes, Mote's research has expanded to include studies of human cancer using marine models, the effects of man-made and natural toxic substances on humans and on the environment, the health of wild fisheries, developing sustainable and successful fish restocking techniques and food production technologies and the development of ocean technology to better understand the health of the environment.
Mote research programs also focus on understanding the population dynamics of manatees, dolphins, sea turtles, sharks and coral reefs and on conservation and restoration efforts related to these species and ecosystems.
Since the early days of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, which began April 20, 2010, Mote has played a significant role in research investigating how oil exposure can affect marine life during and after a spill. Currently, Mote scientists are working toward developing rapid health-diagnostic tests based on sub-lethal responses that will better predict short- and long-term impacts of oil exposure in Gulf of Mexico fishes. Mote Senior Scientist Dr. Dana Wetzel is Toxicology Task Lead in the Deepwater Horizon research consortium CIMAGE II (and its predecessor, C-IMAGE).
To translate and transfer research findings, Mote's vision also includes positively impacting public policy through science-based outreach and education. Showcasing its research is Mote Aquarium, which is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily in Sarasota, Florida, and reaches more than 340,000 people per year. In addition, Mote's Education Department provides informal science education to tens of thousands of children and adults per year.
Mote has more than 30 Ph.D. scientists, 200 staff members and 1,500 volunteers.

Poems written by Jay Krishnan
Always wide eyed with wonder, prone to reveries and restless with an inexplicable yearning to create ever since he was a little boy, Jay wrote his first poem when he was six. He discovered the ore of his creative endeavors in the writings of his sister from which everything else originated, in attics filled with vanilla smelling old books, in savoring the classics and in intricate poems of Wordsworth and William Blake inlaid with rhyme…. His poems have snuck under editorial radars and appeared in global anthologies, magazines, newspapers and online journals. He also runs an idea shop called the Centre of Gravity, draws cartoons, directs animated short films and conceptualizes communication campaigns. All of which originate from the same artery of poetic longing that destiny charmed into his soul.

The new coalition of VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie are debating their new government agreement with the opposition parties in the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of Dutch parliament, on Thursday. As far as Prime Minister Mark Rutte is concerned, the government agreement is not set in stone and the coalition is open to discussing changes with the opposition parties, NU.nl reports.
The new Dutch government presented a very ambitious energy policy in its government agreement on Tuesday. By 2030 the Rutte III cabinet wants the Netherlands' greenhouse gas emissions to be 49 percent lower than the level it was in 1990, a higher goal than what European rules currently demand. The governments is also planning to advocate for a 55 percent reduction in emissions in Europe. But according to environmental organization Greenpeace, while this policy is very ambitious, it is still not enough.
The Rutte III cabinet plans to have two Ministers each at the ministries of Security Justice, Public Health, and Education, sources told newspaper AD. This is the first time that Ministries in the Netherlands will be headed by two ministers, according to the newspaper.
Unions, associations and interest groups had mixed reactions to the Rutte III government's plans for the future. While some are carefully optimistic about what the Netherlands will hold in the coming years, the new government agreement left others with only concerns, according to reactions on the Volkskrant's liveblog of the agreement presentation.
The VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie presented its plans for the Netherlands for the coming years on Tuesday, 209 days after the parliamentary election In March. The Rutte III government is expected to take office in two weeks. Opposition parties have Wednesday to read through the agreement, and on Thursday they wil debate in the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of parliament, the Volkskrant reports.
Opposition parties did not hesitate to comment on the new government's plans for the Netherlands for the coming years. Within minutes after the brand new government agreement was released, criticism started streaming in, according to liveblogs by the Volkskrant and NU.nl on the presentation.
After 209 days of formation talks, the new Dutch government presented its plans for the coming years on Tuesday. Here follows some details from the agreement that were not leaked to the press before the official release.
After the longest formation process ever in Dutch history, the new Dutch government of VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie presented their government agreement to the Tweede Kamer and released it to the public. "The coalition agreement is ambitious and balanced", Prime Minister and VVD leader Mark Rutte said at a press conference after the agreement was handed to the Tweede Kamer, the Volkskrant reports.
Government formation mediator Gerrit Zalm is delivering the new Dutch government agreement to Tweede Kamer president Khadija Arib at around 1:00 p.m. Some time after that, the VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie will present their plans to the press and parliamentarians, the Volkskrant reports.
The government agreement contains the new coalition's plans for the coming years. A summary of leaked details can be seen here.
After 208 days of negotiations, the new Dutch government coalition of VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie can almost take office. On Monday the negotiators of the four parties presented their new government agreement to their parliamentary factions, and all four parties approved it. It will be presented to the press and the Tweede Kamer, the lower house of Dutch parliament, later today, according to RTL Nieuws.
"Confidence in the future" is the motto of Prime Minister Mark Rutte's new government, the Rutte III cabinet, RTL Nieuws reports. The motto will be officially announced when the government agreement is presented. The expectation is that this will happen on Tuesday.
D66 leader Alexander Pechtold will not be a Minister in the new Dutch government, he confirmed to RTL Nieuws. He is staying as D66 leader in the Tweede Kamer, because that is better for "the stability of the new coalition" and being party leader in parliament gives him a bit more room on the home front, he said.
The VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie are now really very almost done with their government agreement, ChristenUnie leader Gert-Jan Segers said to NOS on Friday afternoon. But he thinks the four parties will have to meet again on Monday.
There will be no meetings over the weekend. The ChristenUnie respects the Sunday rest. "And on Saturday I have other plans", Segers said to the broadcaster.
The new Dutch government plans to limit gender registration and work gender-neutrally as much as possible, sources confirmed to RTL Nieuws. Article 1 of the Dutch Constitution will be supplemented to specifically prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation.
The new Dutch government is making 170 million euros extra available for early learning disability detection in very young kids, sources told the Telegraaf.
With the extra money, the youngest toddlers, from 2.5 years, can spend more time at day care or play groups. The older kids in groups 1 and 2 will get more lessons, mostly focused on language problems. Lessons in these groups will increase from 10 hours per week to 16 hours per week.
Nearly seven months after the parliamentary elections, the negotiators of the VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie are finally done with their new government agreement, formation mediator Gerrit Zalm announced on Monday. The agreement was sent to the four parties' parliamentary factions, which have the rest of Monday to read through it, ask questions and make comments, NU.nl reports.
The new Dutch government is implementing an hourly minimum wage of between 15 and 18 euros for meal deliverers, cleaners and other freelancers or self-employed who work at a low rate, RTL Nieuws reported after getting a look at the VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie's plans for freelancers.
Unlicensed escort agencies and pimps in the Netherlands will soon face criminal prosecution, according to agreements made by the VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie in their government formation talks, RTL Nieuws reports. The new government wants a harsher approach to illegal prostitution as part of the fight against human trafficking, sources confirmed to the broadcaster.
Under current Dutch law, illegal prostitution companies can get an administrative fine for working without a license. In the future they will face criminal prosecution, with prison being a possible punishment.
The new Dutch government is planning an experiment with regulated cannabis cultivation, to see if this legal cultivation will decrease organized crime and increase the safety of cannabis in the country. In the experiment, the government will give one organization a government license to grow cannabis, which will be distributed in six to 10 municipalities, RTL Nieuws reports.
As the new Dutch government prepares to present its government agreement, more and more of the VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie's plans are leaking to the press. On Monday we've learned that the new government plans more changes to the asylum policy and is giving more money to security.
The Rutte III government is changing the immigration policy, specifically they're limiting immigrants' access to benefits. The VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie are also increasing the low VAT rate from 6 percent to 9 percent, RTL Nieuws reports.
After over 200 days of government formation talks, the Rutte III cabinet's government agreement is as good as done. The VVD, CDA, D66 and ChristenUnie reached agreements on the last major issues and the agreement is expected to be presented next week. The new government plans to invest more in education, defense, police and sustainability, the Volkskrant reported on Wednesday night.
Klaas Dijkhoff (VVD) will be the Minister of Defense for the final weeks of the departing government's reign. He is taking over from Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, who stepped down on Tuesday due to a mortar grenade accident in Mali that killed two Dutch soldiers last year. King Willem-Alexander swore Dijkhoff in on Wednesday morning, AD reports.
Defense Minister Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert (VVD) resigned on Tuesday evening, after hours of debate in the Tweede Kamer about the Dutch Safety Board's report on the deaths of two Dutch soldiers deployed to a UN mission in Mali last year. Henry Hoving and Kevin Roggeveld were killed when a mortar grenade exploded while still in the firing tube during training.

Western-influenced 19th-century icons on display at Russian Museum of Art
An altar cross from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul is among more than 50 19th-century icons and other religious objects on display at The Museum of Russian Art in Minneapolis through March 3.
"Russian Sacred Art: Connecting Heaven and Earth" opened at the museum Oct. 14. According to the museum's description of the exhibition, 19th-century icons are the "least well known and appreciated" in Russia's centuries-old icon tradition. They are distinguished by a realistic style that emerged a century earlier during the westernizing reign of Peter the Great, and deviate from the traditional Russian style of icon imagery.
By the 20th century, the 19th-century icons were considered inferior to earlier icons, because they depicted their subjects on a worldly plane, and not on the heavenly realm, the hallmark of Russia's golden age of icon painting in the 15th and 16th centuries, said Masha Zavialova, the museum's curator.
"The were seen as not symbolic enough" and thought of as "disturbing the traditional canons of Russian golden age icon painting," she said.
The exhibition's run will coincide with All Saints' Day, which the Catholic Church celebrates Nov. 1. Some of the icons depict saints exclusive to Russian Orthodoxy, but Catholic visitors will recognize icons of saints from both Orthodox and Catholic traditions, including St. Barbara, St. Mary Magdalene and St. Nicholas, as well as Mary, the Trinity, the Evangelists and Old Testament figures.
"Russian icon painting is one of the highlights of Russian culture in general … and also to eastern Christendom," Zavialova said. "Any person who is interested in sacred art would be curious to see the sacred art of this part of the world. … Besides, they are beautiful works of art."
The exhibition is the first to include this selection of icons from a significant collection in Minnesota. The museum is keeping the collector's identity anonymous.
The cross on loan from St. Thomas is a blessing cross used in Eastern Orthodox liturgies, and one of four non-icon liturgical objects in the exhibition. It is one of two items in the exhibition that do not belong to the anonymous collector.
The Museum of Russian Art is located at 500 Stevens Ave. S. Admission is $10 for adults or $8 for seniors over 65. For more information, visit http://www.tmora.org.

Big Picture Days – Session 3: Cyberinsecurity
Big Picture Days – Session 3: Cyberinsecurity
Cyberinsecurity is the third of six Big Picture Days at Limewharf Annex Cultural Laboratory.
We're going to talk about the NSA, Snowden, and the changing relationship we need to have with the technology not to get generation-gapped.
I knew, as soon as the Snowden thing popped, that nothing was going to be the same. I went to OHM2013, a big hacker camping festival in the Netherlands. 3000 people, five government whistleblowers who had attemted to stop illegal surveillance in the past. At least one scary-realistic Ed Snowden look alike. Even a hexayurt.
I am afraid. We had a week, and we failed to retell the story of our lives relative to what we actually know about the vast, secretive spying operations which are run against us. I hardly know a single friend that, at some point in their life, hasn't done something worthy of the attention of law enforcement: riding freight trains, for example, became a big "critical national infrastructure" deal after 9/11. All those messages, sitting in a pile, waiting for the State to decide they've had enough of freight train riders and mass prosecute.
So I wanted to host a conversation about what has happened, and about what we know now. There was an attempt a few years ago to rename the cell phone "the tracker." Now I wonder, given that everything you and I do on the internet is monitored, and much or all of it stored for posterity, is the internet still a valid concept? Or is there simply a single giant eye, the Palantir from Lord of the Rings, showing us the Eye of Sauron every time we go online?
So come to Limewharf at 6PM on Tuesday 20th of August to meet and discuss the issues together. We're putting together a few short talks to briefly frame some of the issues, but this event will mainly be small group conversations about the issues, and about what they mean for our lives and culture.
Do please come: it's our chance to reset the narrative about what is happening, and perhaps emerge with some new ideas about what to do next.
Confirmed speakers
- Smari McCarthy – Icelandic civil rights activist, Pirate Party
- Vinay Gupta – former NSA contractor (kinda) – "A failure of imagination: why is re-inventing the Stasi the best thing the US government can think of do with the internet?"
We are expecting a couple of additional high-profile speakers, watch for announcements.
Particular thanks to Thomas Ermacora for helping me get unstuck on this session. Invaluable assistance!
Cyberinsecurity is the third in the Big Picure Days event series at@Limewharf in London. The first event was Swarm Cooperatives on mass collaboration. The second was Stacktivism on politics and critical infrastructure.

Nationalism and nativism are roiling politics on every continent. With the election of President Donald Trump in the United States, the growing power of right-wing populist parties in Europe, and the ascent of strongmen in states such as China, the Philippines, and Turkey, liberals around the world are struggling to respond to populist nationalism. Today's nationalists decry the "globalist" liberalism of international institutions. They attack liberal elites as sellouts who care more about foreigners than their fellow citizens. And they promise to put national, rather than global, interests first.
The populist onslaught has, understandably, prompted many liberals to conclude that nationalism itself is a threat to the U.S.-led liberal order. Yet historically, liberalism and nationalism have often been complementary. After World War II, the United States crafted a liberal order that balanced the need for international cooperation with popular demands for national autonomy, curbing the aggressive nationalist impulses that had proved so disastrous in the interwar years. The postwar order was based on strong democratic welfare states supported by international institutions, such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), that coordinated economic policy between states while granting them the flexibility to act in their own national interest. The political scientist John Ruggie has called this arrangement "embedded liberalism," because it embraced free markets while subjecting them to institutionalized political control at both the domestic and the international level—a bargain that held for several decades.
Yet over the past 30 years, liberalism has become disembedded. Elites in the United States and Europe have steadily dismantled the political controls that once allowed national governments to manage capitalism. They have constrained democratic politics to fit the logic of international markets and shifted policymaking to unaccountable bureaucracies or supranational institutions such as the EU. This has created the conditions for the present surge of populist nationalism. To contain it, policymakers will have to return to what worked in the past, finding new ways to reconcile national accountability and international

text: T-Mount by Vixen Optics is a device which permits you to attach optical devices to your camera system that were originally created for other purposes. Thus, if you have a telescope with T-Mount threading upon either the rear of its focuser or upon the device you've inserted into the focusing tube, you can then employ a T-Mount to allow your camera to interface directly with the telescope. Simply screw the proper T-Mount for your camera system to the T-Mount threading and then attach your camera to the T-Mount as if you were uniting the camera with a lens as normal. Please note that you'll need a rigid support system to take full advantage of this capacity, and often you'll need additional counterweights for your telescope's mount if it is a German-type equatorial mount.

Dr Indigo Triplett
CEO, 4D Performance
Dr Indigo Triplett, CEO of 4D Performance has achieved great success as a leader, author and speaker. Consulting companies come and go, but under Dr. Indigo's leadership, her company thrived and experienced consistent growth. In 2012, 2013 and 2014, her US company was recognized as one of America's Fastest Growing Companies by INC. Magazine. She grew a homebased training practice into a thriving multimillion dollar performance management consulting firm. Indigo is admired for her down-to-earth methods and techniques, but perhaps more known as an authentic leader who tackles organizational development and workforce topics. Stateside to abroad–from Atlanta, Georgia to Shanghai, China–she delivers a message and philosophy that is insightful; thus, resonating with people at every tier of their career or within an organization.
As the author of Playing by the Unwritten Rules I: Moving from the Middle to the Top andPlaying by the Unwritten Rules II: From a Job Defense to a Career Offense, she is a leading authority on career management. Dr Indigo has spoken both nationally and internationally for clients and at conferences; whereby, her books are purchased by individuals and clients in quantities of 1 to 1,000 copies per order. Noted for "making the implicit explicit" and injecting humor into her subject matter, she is called upon by nationally recognized magazines, newspapers, television and radio outlets.
Dr Indigo recently launched 4D Performance in Malaysia, which mirrors her US company. Based on her research, she believes that Asia is primed to be the next global economic power. However, she also believes that there must be a shift in how the Asia workforce is prepared for this growth and global competitiveness. She further believes that a foundation built on performance and productivity will create sustainability. This means leveraging diversity, creating inclusion, developing an agile workforce that is empowered, creative and life-long learners are essential. It is not what a person knows but what s/he is willing to learn that will move an organization forward. She received her Ph.D. in Values-Driven Leadership from Benedictine University and holds a MA in Organizational Development from Webster University.

I took it right from the tutorial and changed the coordinates and orientation to fit my map. It works fine but the texture is missing for some reason.door1lvr=Levers.PlaceLever("Door1Lever", Levers.LeverType3,(-5900,-1000,2500),(0.5,0.5,-0.5,0.5),0.
I've tried it, but it doesn't work. I even changed the external light coordinates to match these numbers.Bladex.SetSun(1,-10,12,16)
I know that works.
All the sun flare code in the main game is executed in a sol.py file. I don't know why as you never get a
sunflare in a saved game. If you put the code in DefFuncs you do.
Yeah, I've got this code right after import lines. The folder name is "FirstMap" and the line looks like "GameText.MapList['FIRSTMAP'] = ['FirstMap']" without quotes. F1 button works though.Have you got this code:
import GameText
GameText.MapList ['MYMAPNAME'] = 'mymapname'
...in you DefFuncs file?
It needs to be the the exact name on you map folder at the end and a CAPITALISED version
between the []s
This enables the savegame and the F1 key.
Ugh, I've just checked one ladle I had placed on the map and it seems like it doesn't have the texture either. Something like that: https://puu.sh/Akh6u/565854333c.png. It changes depending on the angle.Have you any other objects in the map and if so is the texture ok an them.
Thank you, that fixed the problem with saves!The line:
GameText.MapList['FIRSTMAP'] = ['FirstMap']
must look like:
GameText.MapList['FIRSTMAP'] = 'FirstMap'
The value of GameText.MapList['FIRSTMAP'] must be a string, not a list
Yeah, I've looked into other people's .lvl files and found a few lines I didn't put into mine. Those bitmaps lines fixed the textures, thanks!Have you got....
Bitmaps -> ..\..\3dObjs\3dobjs.mmp
... in your .lvl file?
Oh, right, thanks, I've been trying to use an object instead of initial variable, that was the problem!You need to activate the damage with:
and deactivate it when it's finished with:
('spike' is the variable the object is assigned to. )

BackroomCastingCouch – Annabelle (15.04.2019)
If you've never been catfished, consider yourself lucky. The pics I received from Annabelle were far better than what show showed up. Kinda like the pic of a Big Mac in a McDonald's commercial compared to what you get at the drive through. These random first timers can't all be 8-10s… or even 6-7s… Yea, so imagine you're at a club, it's last call and you need to scramble to find a girl. She would be the easiest target. I want to give a shout out to Vince for jumping on this thicc blue eyed blonde grenade like a true professional sex mercenary. Love you, man.

Compensation for Motorcycle Injuries
Injured in a Fort Lauderdale motorcycle accident?
Motorcycle accidents can lead to severe injuries in a collision with a car or truck due to the motorcyclist having very little protection. Accidents can result in all sorts of catastrophic injuries for the rider. Bones are often broken in the impact with another vehicle or when the rider is thrown from the bike and hits the ground at high speed. Many victims suffer severe road rash after being dragged along the street surface, requiring skin grafts and an agonizing recovery period. Brain injuries and severe concussions can lead to loss of cognitive function. Spinal cord injuries will often lead to mobility problems or paralysis.
Serious soft tissue injuries can cause excruciating pain and inconvenience during recovery. In the most serious cases, a fatality can result, leaving a grieving family to suffer without their loved one. In fact, federal statistics report that rider deaths outnumber driver deaths 35 to 1 in motorcycle accidents. If you or a loved one has suffered any type of injury in a motorcycle accident, a Fort Lauderdale personal injury lawyer can meet with you to discuss your case and inform you of what type of compensation for damages should be sought in your case.
Consult a Skilled Motorcycle Accident Attorney
It is important to get the best legal representation you can find when pursuing damages for a motorcycle accident. At Weinstein & Scharf, P.A., we provide personalized legal service to our clients. It takes aggressive negotiation and tireless work from our legal team to settle your case.
We are ready to fight for you and will take the appropriate legal steps to ensure you don't have to pay the price for another person's negligence. Contact us today.

The Reverend David Ashworth 1978-1996
The Reverend David Ashworth 1978-1996
The young man in the while coat gazed thoughtfully around the pharmacy. Three years at Nottingham University had earned him his B. Pharm. Now, a full year at Boundary Park Hospital, Oldham entitled him to membership of the Pharmaceutical Society. He was qualified. He could work in any pharmacy in the land or even the world, yet from the beginning of his student days, he had known that that was not what he was going to do. David Ashworth had a vocation to the ministry of the Church of England.
The Church authorities themselves had suggested that he should do something entirely different and obtain a qualification before making any firm decision. He had done so. Now he made up his mind and his last prescription.
After training at Lincoln Theological College, he was ordained in Manchester Cathedral.
On the day of his Ordination, something happened which delighted David in a way he could never have imagined and which he has never forgotten. The very first person to greet him was not his father or his mother or any of his family who were there, but a man called Leslie. He had been a prisoner David had visited in Lincoln Prison and he had made his way, all on his own, all the way from Grimsby just to be with David on the great day.
Service as curate was at St. Thomas's, Halliwell, Bolton (where his swift reaction saved the building from being destroyed by fire), and his first parish was St Margaret's, Heywood. Then, in September 1978, he crossed Manchester to become the seventh Vicar of St. Peter's, Hale.
Fourteen years later, he takes our parish into its centenary year.
"The more things change," runs the old French proverb, "the more they stay the same." Is this true of St. Peter's? If Mr. Brunskill could return today, what would he recognise and what would he think of our church and his?
The building would be much the same, though there would be windows he never knew. Plaques, too, including his own and one in Lakeland slate in memory of Ted Coombs beside the stall where he sat in his 50 years as Verger. (He died in 1985.) Designed by the noted calligrapher Mr. Alec Peever, it quotes Ecclesiasticus 38 v.34.
"They maintain the fabric of this world
And their prayers are about their daily work"
As for worship, he could not fail to be impressed by the Choir nor pleasantly surprised by the presence of so many female choristers, unheard of in his day save on special occasions, on their own, in the Saints' Day Choir. The musicianship of Robin Coulthard, both in his playing and in his standard of choral performance would be cause for pride.
At 8.30 a.m. Holy Communion he would feel completely at home with the well-loved and familiar words of the Book of Common Prayer (1662), much of which he would recognise in the Alternative Service Book's Rite B. He might feel less at ease with Rite A celebrated with the Nave altar within the circle of chairs at the Eucharist for Youth, though, surely, greatly moved.
He would find it a great deal easier to hear every service thanks to the sound amplification system.
Rigidly conservative, one wonders how he would feel about coffee served in church.
The cheerful, lively children in the Sunday School classes, joining their parents in church for the final part of the Service would be in contrast to the children he used to teach and who were meant to be 'seen and not heard' and lie would be astonished to know that the beautiful banner designed by Denise Worsley for Sevens was a gift from Ada Pearce. As a little girl, she was the one who used to make his life difficult when she was a pupil in his classes. In her honour the bookshelves at the back of the church were installed to sell devotional literature. 'Which just goes to show,' he might reflect,'you never can tell...'
Such little recreation as was to be found in his day was decorous to a degree; a world away from the music and merriment in the Assembly Rooms when the 'Rufus Quick Showband' raised the roof, or, rather, the cost of repairing the roof of the church.
He would recall how the Ladies' Guild in his day decorated the Drill Hall for fundraising but even they can never have equalled the magical metamorphoses conjured up by Joan Schofield and her friends in the Assembly Rooms: the 'Victorian Arcade' with old fashioned 'shops' with leaded windows bright with lights and good things to buy, the 'Caribbean Carnival' complete with steel band and, at the oilier climatic extreme, 'Winter Wonderland' with shop-fronts heavy with 'snow'.
From the earliest days of St. Peter's, Mission was a top priority. It still is, and not simply in the provision of funds. Chris Frankland actually went to Busoga to see for himself how the drilling paid for by people in Hale discovered underground springs and provided wells for people there. Nick Bent spent six months in Uganda and Amos Kasibante and others from Uganda have come to England to study for Ordination, sponsored by St. Peter's. Our links with St. Paul's, an inner-city church amidst the high-rise council flats of Salford, grow stronger every year through material support, clergy assistance and involvement and, every year, the provision mid staffing of a weekend holiday in the Lake District for some of the children. In Diocesan and national appeals, St. Peter's has raised more than ever before, tens of thousands of pounds.
The perspective of history shows how Mr. Brunskill conducted his ministry in not only the first but the first, three decades of St. Peter's. We do not yet have that perspective for this, the last decade of its century hut already a clear pattern and direction is emerging in the ministry of the Revd. David Ashworth, conducted in a style quite unlike any of his predecessors.
From the very first, he was totally involved, as Duncan Eyre remembers.
'When Don Lewis moved hack to Wales, the choir was fortunate to have the continued support of his successor, David Ashworth. He sang with us whenever possible and when Lowther College failed us for Choir Camp, David's encouragement eventually led to the Choir singing at Lichfield Cathedral. That was an unforgettable end to my twenty three years' service.'
Although his increasing responsibilities precluded his continued participation in the choir, David was to provide that same encouragement to Duncan's successors.
George Budden, his son Duncan and Russell Medley before the arrival of Robin Coulthard and the formation of the team in which they seem to combine so effectively in the musical setting and enhancement of worship.
'Involved', then, but as 'one of' rather than 'in charge of'. David's is government by consensus and he has the gift of drawing out of people what they really want to do, Then guiding their thoughts and finally encouraging and enabling them to achieve, possibly what they had in mind, but often something greater. Some of the achievements have been remarkable.
After something of a false start as a gathering of distinguished senior members of the parish, the Guild of St. Peter now nourishes as a social club with coffee mornings, dinners and guest speakers, all with the additional benefit of raising money for various causes. At Christmas time, food parcels are made up and sent to the parish of St. Paul's in Salford.
Although it was with more specific enjoyment in view, no one guessed it was on the cards that a few friends' gathering to raise money towards repairing the roof would develop into St Peter's Bridge Circle.
Joyce Currie and her husband Bill started it all off with a dinner and entertainment and a game of Bridge in the Assembly Rooms. That raised £500. Now there is a waiting list to play at the ten or so tables every Friday evening and especially to go on the Bridge Weekends al Grange-over-Sands or Windermere.
The £1.00 registration and the 60p playing fees have already totalled over £2,000. Another enterprise went still further afield and raised over £8,000.
On a hot Saturday in July 1989, two minibuses and a van set out from Hale for Canterbury. In the van were seventeen bicycles. In the minibuses, the people who were to go to ride them, from Canterbury to York, together with the support teams.
On Sunday morning, after prayers for their safety and the success of their ride in raising money, the Archbishop of Canterbury saw them off and bade them Godspeed. In the following five days, they rode some 320 miles, sometimes as few as 30, sometimes as many as 70 miles in a day. The youngest riders were twelve years old and the oldest, James Lawrence, over 70. Each night they were welcomed into the accommodation our Curate, Revd. Peter Mander, had arranged for them with a hot meal prepared by the support teams under Sandra Cope and Barbara Pearson.
The riders had been training for weeks before the event under Eric Booth, himself a cyclist of Olympic standard. At first, a gentle ride round Hale had left them breathless and exhausted but Eric, or 'Little by Little', had gradually encouraged and coaxed them into longer and longer journeys until a 30-mile training run became commonplace. In the event, his skill and wisdom proved invaluable though for every mile they rode, he covered two as he had constantly to be in front, leading the column and then going to the rear to round up the tail-enders and see that everyone was safely through. On the Saturday they reached York where the Archbishop of York formally welcomed them and conducted a Service of Thanksgiving for their safe arrival.
Before the start, Eric had said, 'When this is over, we shall all be best of friends or the best of enemies.' Looking back on it now, the first possibility has been the one to come about and already re-union dinners have been held. 'We got to know each other far better and more deeply than ever before, even people you had known for years you found you had hardly known at all.' The greatest benefit? 'No doubt about it. Fellowship.' Of all the many memories of that time, Eric looks back with particular warmth to the service of Compline which Peter Marnier read every evening, a shared time of peace and thankful worship after a day of shared experience.
A parish that can mount an exercise of that scope has much to teach a would-be vicar and David Ashworth has been responsible for training five Curates.
Max Ramsey, a former university lecturer brought a light-hearted approach to learning imparted with a rich baritone, making his company genial and his sermons memorable. Peter Mander, who organised the cycle marathon, had been a schoolteacher in Liverpool. Both enriched our life and our worship. Clenyg Squire, already a Reader, was ordained at the same time as our most recent curate. Dr. Deborah Moore. Her appointment marks the culmination of what has perhaps been one of David's most cherished aims, the involvement of women in worship. David's fifth and final Curate, was Peter Mackriell ordained in 1994 and who continued to serve in the Parish after David left in January 1996, serving as the only parish priest until July 1996 when the family moved to Marple.
Like every vicar before him, David has the help and support of the women's organisations in the parish. Certainly, neither the church nor the Assembly Rooms would function as they do without the constant and unstinting work of our Verger, Ann Longley, and now of her successor, Barbara Pearson, and of Barbara Mawdsley, our Caretaker. What has happened recently has been a venture in a new direction. Early in his ministry he appointed women Sidesmen. Women Lectors regularly read the Lessons and others are responsible for Intercessions at Evensong. Mari Mander, Peter's wife, was our first woman Reader. Caroline Holmes is our second. In the controversy over the Ordination of women to the Priesthood, he has nailed his colours firmly to the mast.
This concern is a continuing, underlying theme in an increasingly busy ministry. St. Peter's, Hale and St. Elizabeth's, Ashley were already his direct responsibility. Since his appointment as Rural Dean, so, too, is every other church in Bowdon Deanery. Not that any of this ever seems to disturb his invariably cheerful disposition or, as those who have been ill or bereaved will testify, his quiet kindness and compassion. One can only judge by appearances but it would seem that he is seldom happier than at Family Service when children, whose names he always knows, come forward to help him with his visual aids. They love it, and they may well become the parishioners, PCC, Churchwardens and (who knows) clergy who will be taking St. Peter's into its second century.
It has been said that, as Christians, we are to be 'Open to others and open to God'. We could wish for no finer example.
Fifty years ago, Charles Jones concluded the Annual Report. In tribute to him and to all who have contributed to the making of St. Peter's, here is what he wrote. No words could more fittingly bring our first century to a close.
'So the tale of a Parish is told, but only partially. The spotlight has played here and there, a few outstanding happenings have been chronicled, tribute born out of affection and respect has been paid by just one superficial observer of the scene.
'Meanwhile here, as in thousands of other parishes throughout the land, there have gone up and. down the parish clergy, faithfully ministering the eternal things to needy souls and drawing them nearer to God when all other things have been forgotten, theirs is the work which shall never have an end.'

I don't know about you, but I absolutely love music and most forms of it. Music can influence us in so many ways: by drowning in our sorrows to uplifting our souls and everything in between. For me, any song that either makes me laugh or makes me feel like dancing is a wonderful way to raise my spirit and feel good.
Now there are MANY songs that I can put here but today I am grateful for one in particular. It's a song from the disco era of the 70's and it's Boogie Wonderland, from the fabulous group Earth, Wind and Fire. When I watch this version, I can't help but laugh and smile at all the fun they were having singing, dancing, twirling trumpets, tossing tamborines and dancing tangos with their guitars! It makes me feel really good and gets me dancing everytime.
So, thank you for this song, Earth, Wind and Fire! Some thirty years later, I still feel really good hearing it. Shall we dance?

WASHINGTON — President Obama was not involved in the decision to indict five members of the People's Liberation Army, an administration official said on Wednesday. But bringing the charges, the official said, was consistent with Mr. Obama's belief that the United States needed to adopt tougher measures after President Xi Jinping brushed off Mr. Obama's repeated demands that the Chinese government curb the hacking of American companies.
"Our message wasn't getting through," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity, as the United States tried to contain China's expected retaliation to the charges.
The Justice Department had been assembling its case for several years, the officials said, and worked to persuade the American firms that were victims of the alleged theft to go public, which many companies were reluctant to do. But the timing of the indictments had injected an unpredictable new source of tension to Chinese-American relations at a moment when the White House was already rattled by China's muscle-flexing in its coastal waters, which has brought it into conflict with Vietnam, Malaysia, and two treaty allies of the United States, Japan and the Philippines.
Beijing and Washington might soon find themselves at odds over another sensitive issue: how to rein in the rogue government in North Korea. The administration is weighing whether to impose further sanctions on Pyongyang that could target Chinese enterprises active in the North, a move certain to inflame tensions with Beijing. Mr. Obama discussed the possibility with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan during a private dinner in Tokyo last month, according to an official familiar with the discussion.
While administration officials said the relationship with China has proved resilient to other blows — arms sales to Taiwan, for example, or Mr. Obama's meetings with the Dalai Lama — they acknowledged that bringing indictments against members of the Liberation Army is different, particularly given the military's influential role with Mr. Xi, a relatively new Chinese leader.
On Thursday, the administration will be pressed to go even further. Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York, has said he will call for the United States to file a case against China with the World Trade Organization for sanctioning cyberattacks against American corporate interests. Such a move, Mr. Schumer said, would put muscle behind the legal indictments.
"This is an important signal to China and other countries that cyberattacks against U.S. businesses are absolutely unacceptable," Mr. Schumer wrote in a letter to be delivered Thursday to the United States trade representative, Michael B. Froman. "However, the United States and other countries who are victims of these attacks are powerless to enforce their own laws if the offending country refuses to extradite the accused."
Because cybercrime is a relatively new phenomenon, there is some question about whether the World Trade Organization could bring cases under its existing rules. But Mr. Schumer said organization members are required to protect trade secrets, which means that cyberespionage would differ little from walking out of a corporate office with the information.
So far, American officials say, the Chinese reaction to the indictments has been predictable, including suspension of dialogue on cybersecurity, demands that the indictments be withdrawn, threats of retaliation against American companies or officials and reminders of what the National Security Agency does. Analysts said they would not be surprised if the Chinese military retaliated by canceling some contacts with the American military.
For the White House, Mr. Xi poses a major uncertainty. Since ascending to Chinese leadership 18 months ago he has proved more willing than many expected to risk clashes with China's neighbors over disputed territory in the South and East China Seas. That is driven, analysts said, partly by his need to secure the support of the military, a need that could play into China's reaction to these indictments.
"If you look around China's periphery, China's relations are bad with a lot of its neighbors," said another senior official, also speaking on condition of anonymity. For the administration, the legal action is viewed as a path to forcing the Chinese government — and the P.L.A., which has often run its own foreign policy — into a diplomatic dialogue that it has resisted for three years.
The administration pressed its case with private and public messages that were all but ignored, officials said. Some officials believe the Chinese were calculating that after the revelations of N.S.A. surveillance operations in the past year, the White House would back away from its cyber theft initiatives.
At an informal summit meeting in California last year, Mr. Obama propelled cyber issues to the top of the agenda, warning Mr. Xi that if China did not take it seriously, it would damage the broader relationship. "We had a very blunt conversation about cybersecurity," Mr. Obama told Charlie Rose of PBS after the meeting.
The effort to engage the Chinese on cyber issues began in earnest in early 2011, as the attacks on American corporations, defense contractors, think tanks, universities and media outlets began to accelerate. The United States said it wanted to make the conversations part of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue, an annual meeting of Chinese and American officials.
James B. Steinberg, then the deputy secretary of state, led the effort and recalled on Wednesday that China "sent a good range of people from the P.L.A., and security and communications officials," but that the discussion was not highly substantive.
A more detailed conversation came the following year. In 2013, after the public revelations of the attack led by Unit 61398, the army's cyberwarfare unit, Mr. Obama tried to move the conversation to what his national security adviser, Tom Donilon, called "the center of the relationship."
But the effort was undermined by the revelations from Edward J. Snowden, the former N.S.A. contractor. Mr. Steinberg, who has just written a book with Michael E. O'Hanlon about United States-China relations titled "Strategic Reassurance and Resolve," said that the goal should be to "build on the process that we used when there was evidence of proliferation activity by the Chinese" in the nuclear arena.
Mr. Steinberg said that if the Chinese were unresponsive, "that's when you show some resolve" and press the issue with indictments, sanctions or other steps. "But there needs to be an endgame," he said, "because this can't be resolved by legal means or unilateral actions."
For now, however, the administration said the indictments would serve a purpose. "We have found that it's important to set those limits and boundaries," a senior official said. "Sometimes friction is useful."

Since you only have 500 licenses, that is probably a good place to start. You may consider future monitoring of Virtual and Physical memory, especially if you add APM down the road.
Re: Resources to monitorGarethHassall Jul 28, 2009 5:59 AM (in response to DThorne)
Hi D,
This is a good starting point, depending on where you want to go with this. How many servers do you actually have? This is a really elementary setup & may not provide you with the application-specific data that you need to make decisions. e.g. on a SQL server, (outside of APM) you would definitely want to monitor disk space for the log & DB drives. Are you only monitoring servers? Have you added in your network devices, particularly your edge devices?
Re: Resources to monitorbrian_duvall Jul 28, 2009 6:06 AM (in response to GarethHassall)
That looks good.
Re: Resources to monitorDThorne Jul 28, 2009 6:08 AM (in response to GarethHassall)
Hi Gareth,
We have about 140 server, then we also monitor switches, UPS, routers, firewalls and a few other devices.
There's no plan at the moment to buy APM (I want to but no money!).
