Vietnam has made gains in improving educational performance, however, major challenges remain in closing gaps to the access and opportunity for learning across population groups, and in improving the quality of teaching and learning. GVI recognizes such challenges and has partnered with local departments of education and schools throughout northern Vietnam to help improve the overall quality of education.
Special Education - Special Education is a relatively new field of study in the Vietnamese education system and with lack of education resources there is a clear gap felt in communities. In an effort to close this gap, GVI has collaborated with Hanoi University of Education to organize conferences each year to train university students, educators, administrators and parents to work with students with disabilities. Some of the topics include: Sensory Integration, Life Skills, Early Childhood Class Activities, Language Development, How to Write Individualized Education Plans and Creating Support Communities at School. GVI volunteers, including specialists and parents of children with autism, attend and share their experiences and expertise on how to better teach and provide care for children with special needs. The annual conferences are well attended with nearly 300 participants each year and have raised the level of awareness around special education to the people in Vietnam.
Educational Tools and Resources – GVI is currently working to improve the quality of education in the rural and urban districts of Bac Ha and Sapa, in northern Vietnam. GVI volunteers provide training workshops for teachers to help them develop more effective teaching methods and curriculum to better prepare students with the critical life skills they need to learn and be successful. Training workshop curriculum includes: English as a Second Language; persuasive reading and writing, computer literacy, how to start after school clubs, and more. As a result of this training, students are becoming better prepared for success now and in the future. In addition, GVI provides funding to the schools for supplies and equipment.
Sports & Wellness - Sports command a proven power to cross barriers and create communities to affect the heart and the mind. We believe that sports can significantly improve the health, well being and self esteem of children while serving as a vehicle for social change.. GVI volunteers aim to do so by traveling to rural areas in Vietnam to conduct sports camps, teaching children skills in baseball, basketball, volleyball, soccer, and flag football. The training also includes teaching skills in strength, conditioning, nutrition, and team work. The sports camps allow children the opportunity to participate in fun and interactive learning while enhancing their health and self esteem. In addition, GVI donates sports equipment and uses volunteers to teach local P.E. teachers the skills of each sport so that they may integrate the activities into their school curriculum.

Assad's U.N. Partners
Syria's chemical weapons declaration is far from complete.
After over two years of doing nothing to stop Syria's civil war, the U.N. Security Council has finally agreed on a plan for Bashar Assad to surrender his chemical weapons. The U.S. and its allies as well as Assad's patrons in Russia hailed a diplomatic breakthrough at Turtle Bay, but this resolution still does nothing to hasten the conflict's end.
The resolution adopted on Friday evening obliges the regime in Damascus to fully declare its arsenal of chemical weapons and to dismantle them by the middle of next year. It commits...

I'm officially done with a year of the WPMBA program! It really has went by pretty fast. Sarah's post is really true. Her last bullet for me was the hardest to get used to when I started. (Don't obsess about grades…) When you start the program, you soon learn that you have to maintain a 3.0 average in all of the core classes. Which is a B. When I first started a year ago, that really intimidated me. What if I get below a B? Or how much work is it to get an A? As I began to learn, B's are ok. There will be classes in which you know you may never use the material again and are just doing what you can to get by; but even in those classes, there are still tips and information that is valuable to learn, or enough to at least sound like you know what you are talking about in conversation. Most of the classes incorporate current/local events into the topics which helps the "Why do I really need to learn this?" question. Virtually nobody will know (unless you share) what grades you get and employers (for the most part) will not ask to see your transcripts, just that you have graduated.
To go along with Sarah's list, I have a couple more bullets to add after a year in the program:
- Commuting an hour (or more) is doable. Patience is needed when dealing with traffic on a regular basis. I don't know how many times I came to class complaining about the traffic on 315, but it was a lot. It helps to be open and accommodating when it comes to group projects.
- Take time to exercise. The first couple of quarters, most of my free time was spent on studying and that came back to bite me. Treadmill time and reading articles is a great combo!
- Beware of the vending machines. Buying a candy bar and pop before or in between classes every day is not good for the weight or the wallet.
- Meet as many classmates and get to know them. Networking is such a great aspect with classmates and it helps later on when you need to form groups or need expertise in a specific area.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Getting Married at Grace Episcopal Church
Q: Do I need to be an Episcopalian or member of Grace in order to have my wedding at Grace Episcopal Church?
A: No, couples of all faith traditions and denominational affiliations choose to hold their wedding ceremonies at Grace Episcopal Church. Please download our Wedding Handbook to learn more.
Q: Does the Priest of Grace Episcopal Church have to conduct our ceremony or can we bring in our own officiant?
A: Wedding couples may choose their own officiant. (If needed, the Grace Church Wedding Coordinator has a resource list of wedding officiants). Members of Grace who wish to use a Priest other than our Rector are encouraged to speak with Father Jonathan in advance about their request: (608) 255-5147 ext. 21 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve our wedding date at the church?
A: Dates for weddings often book over a year in advance. The sooner you choose and reserve a date, the better your likelihood of receiving the date of your choice. Only one wedding per day is scheduled at Grace. The rental fee covers up to a 3.5-hour time block, which is usually sufficient for pre-ceremony preparations and photography, ceremony, receiving line, and post-ceremony cleanup. Couples may reserve their choice of date and 3.5-hour time block in consultation with the Wedding Coordinator.
Q: What other factors should we consider in selecting a wedding date?
A: Grace Episcopal Church is located on the Capitol Square in the heart of downtown Madison. When choosing a date, please search through online community calendars looking for large- scale events (such as Taste of Madison, Fourth of July festivities, etc.) that may be occurring on or around the Capitol Square on your ideal date as these events may impact traffic, noise level, etc. We find some couples intentionally choose to build their day around these events (free fireworks for guests, a festive atmosphere, etc.) while others would prefer to select a different date. If you are unfamiliar with Madison, the Grace Church Wedding Coordinator will be happy to assist you with this process.
Q: Is the church air-conditioned?
A: Yes, the Nave is air-conditioned for your guests. IN addition to new air conditioning during a recent renovation, we also updated the church with new paint, lighting and furniture, while still maintaining all of the historic features.
Q: What role does the Grace Church Wedding Coordinator play?
A: The Wedding Coordinator's role is to help couples plan the details leading up to their ceremony. She responds to all initial wedding inquires, schedules a time for the couple to tour the church, answers any questions, and provides resources in planning the wedding. She is on- site during the rehearsal and on the wedding day to help orchestrate the flow of the day, provide support to the wedding party and guests, troubleshoot any issues that might arise, and make sure the ceremony runs as smoothly as possible. Please feel free to contact her to set up a time to tour the facilities: Pat Werk, email@example.com or (608) 213-7558.
Q: How many guests can Grace Church seat?
A: The sanctuary is the central place of worship on Sundays and used for most wedding ceremonies. It has a capacity of 325 people, but is intimate enough if your guest list is as small as 100. The side chapel to the right of the sanctuary has a maximum seating capacity of 20 and is available for smaller, more intimate weddings.
Q: How much will it cost to have our wedding at Grace?
A: The costs to hold your ceremony at Grace will vary depending upon the couple's relationship to Grace Church or Anglican community, or whether a non-Episcopal couple is requesting to rent our facility. Please read the "Fee Structure" in the Wedding Fees section of the Grace Church Wedding Handbook to determine what specific rates would apply to you.

Few things garner as much attention for an historic site then the title of 'oldest', and the oldest churches are certainly no exception. Determining what is, in fact, the oldest church in America is a matter of some debate, as there are many ways to consider the question. Do churches on U.S. territories count? Did they actually have to be constructed in the United States? What if they are only partially standing? Do they have to currently be in use? Whichever way you choose to look at it, the following churches cover virtually every possibility.
Cathedral of San Juan Bautista & San Jose Church
San Juan, Puerto Rico (Catholic)
The Cathedral of San Juan Bautista and the San Jose Church, both located in San Juan, Puerto Rico, are, technically speaking, the two oldest churches currently standing on American soil. Thanks to the fact that the island of Puerto Rico was discovered by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage in 1493, it was one of the first places in the New World where Christianity was introduced. The city was founded by Juan Ponce de Leon in 1508, and construction on both churches began in the ensuing decades.
The first church in San Juan was built in 1521, but this primitive structure was destroyed in a hurricane. A new church, the Cathedral of San Juan Bautista, was built on the same spot and completed in 1540. The San Jose Church was constructed nearby in the 1530s. The former became the second cathedral in the New World, while the latter is the oldest standing Spanish Colonial structure in the Americas. Ponce de Leon was originally buried in the San Jose Church, but was reinterred in the cathedral in the 19th century. Together these two are unquestionably America's oldest churches still in use.
San Miguel Mission
Santa Fe, New Mexico (Catholic)
Web: www.sdc.org/~smiguel
The San Miguel Mission, a tiny adobe church located deep in the heart of the America west, is the oldest church standing in the contiguous 48 states. This location, thousands of miles from the Eastern Seaboard, is an extremely odd place for such a distinctive honor. However, there is a surprisingly good story for such an unlikely building. In the early 17th century, more than a decade before the Puritans arrived in Massachusetts, an expedition of Spanish explorers worked their way up the Rio Grande and Pecos Rivers from the Gulf of Mexico, travelling as far as what is now northern New Mexico.
At the end of their journey, they established a small colony and mission at what is now the city of Santa Fe. This effectively marked the northernmost point of the Spanish colonial empire in the North American interior. In the 1610s, the San Miguel Chapel was constructed at the local mission. Though damaged and repaired numerous times in its long history, most of the original structure is miraculously intact. Because of this, the San Miguel Mission just barely edges out the early churches of the English colonies for the title of America's oldest church.
St. Luke's Church & Jamestown Church
Smithfield & Jamestown, Virginia (Episcopal)
Web: http://historicstlukes.org www.nps.gov/jame
The Church of St. Luke and the Jamestown Church are the two oldest churches still standing in what was the original thirteen colonies, as well as the two oldest Protestant church buildings in the United States. The two are both located in the original territory settled by the British in the early 17th century, though there is some controversy over exactly which one is older. The first Protestant church in America was constructed at Jamestown in 1617, but this was replaced by a larger more permanent structure in 1639.
St. Luke's Church has traditionally been dated to 1632, and some evidence supports this. Other evidence suggests that the building dates from 1682, but used materials from an earlier church in its construction. To date the controversy remains unresolved. To further complicate the matter, the Jamestown Church deteriorated and collapsed in the 18th century, though the church tower remained intact. Much of this church was restored in the early 1900s. So for those seeking America's oldest colonial church, the choice comes between the unreliably dated St. Luke's and the remains of the Jamestown Church. Visit both and be sure either way.
Old Trinity Church
Church Creek, Maryland (Episcopal)
Web: www.oldtrinity.net
The Old Trinity Church in Maryland lays claim to being the oldest church in America in continual use. It was constructed sometime around 1675, and became the center around which the town of Church Creek later grew up. There is some controversy about the dating of Old Trinity due to the fact that there are no town records available prior to the 18th century.
Nevertheless the church building itself is well over three hundred years old, and church records reflect non-stop activity for the entire period (and amazingly with the same continuous congregation). Unfortunately, due to the precipitous decline in the town's population, this venerable congregation is now under the real threat of disappearing, and Old Trinity's record in danger of being broken.
St. Joan of Arc Chapel
Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Catholic)
The St. Joan of Arc Chapel on the campus of Marquette University is, strictly speaking, America's oldest church building, though only by an extreme technicality indulged by the author. This beautiful church was originally constructed in the village of Chasse-sur-Rhone in Central France in the 15th century. One of the very first churches to be dedicated to the French heroine of the Hundred Years War (martyred in 1431), it was the town's primary church until falling into ruin after the French Revolution.
After World War I, the chapel was acquired by American railroad magnate James Hill who had it shipped and reconstructed brick by brick in Long Island, New York. In 1964, the chapel was gifted to Marquette University, and once again it was deconstructed brick by brick, moved and reconstructed. It now stands on the university campus. Among its treasures is the Joan of Arc Stone, believed to be the stone upon which Joan stood when she had her famous visions.

Iran Shows Video of Captured U.S. Drone
TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran's state TV has broadcast video of the stealth U.S. drone that Tehran says its forces downed earlier this week.
The more than two minutes of footage shows Iranian officials inspecting the high-tech RQ-170 Sentinel drone, which appeared to be intact.
The chief of aerospace division of Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards, Gen. Ami Ali Hajizadeh, says an electronic ambush by Iranian forces brought down the drone.
He said Thursday the aircraft was controlled by two stations in Afghanistan and the United States via satellite.
Iranian state radio has said the unmanned aircraft was detected over the eastern town of Kashmar, some 140 miles from the border with Afghanistan.
U.S. officials have acknowledged losing the drone.

This is a prophetic vision given to Daniel Yoder and which was shared by his wife, Rebecca Brown. Yoder and Brown are the founders of the ministry Harvest Warriors.
Recently the Lord gave Daniel a powerful vision that we believe should be shared with God's people.
Daniel was transported in spirit to a great battlefield. Two armies were arrayed face to face, fighting. The one army was made up of Satan's demons, and the second army was made up of God's people. The Lord drew Daniel's attention to several things about the armies and the battle.
First, the armor of God. (Ephesians 6, see below) Very few of the people had the full armor of God on. Most were carrying what looked like wooden swords and cardboard shields. Most had heads too big to be able to put on the Helmet of Salvation, so they had no helmets. Their heads were swollen with pride and the things of the world. They had never shared the gospel of Jesus Christ with anyone, and indeed, did no know how to do so. The Helmet of Salvation helps you to have single mindedness about loving and serving the Lord. (2 Timothy 2:1-4, see below) The Helmet also helps us to keep our minds pure and committed to the Lord. (2 Corinthians 10:3-5, see below) Most had swollen heads because of what they had been taught and saw in their leaders who taught them only the doctrine of health and wealth and that no demon or curse could touch them, thus no need for spiritual warfare.
Many of the women were dressed in fancy high heeled shoes that greatly restricted any free movement in battle. The men likewise had on slick fancy dress shoes which caused them to slip and fall. This is because they never worked to have their feet shod with the gospel of peace, and were more concerned with worldly things and success than pleasing God and carrying the gospel to others. Some were without shoes at all because they had never been taught to share the gospel, and believed this was the job of the pastors, or that sinners would simply come to their church buildings
Many were trying to fight with their wooden sword in one hand and with the other were holding onto their pants to keep them from falling down around their feet. This was because they did not have the Belt of Truth in place to hold them up. Indeed, they had never studied the Bible for themselves, and did not know the Word of God, and lived according to their own desires, disregarding God's clear commands to guide them in truth and righteousness and spiritual warfare.
Most knew nothing at all about spiritual warfare, nor had they studied or memorized the scriptures giving God's people the authority they need in warring with demons or spiritual rulers of darkness. Most had been taught in their churches that Christians were completely protected against all curses and demons so there was no need for spiritual warfare. Some held up a Bible in front of them believing the Bible would shield them from the swords of the demons. The demons just laughed and with one swipe of their swords chopped off their hands and sent the Bibles flying uselessly. Once again, this is because God's Word tells that the "sword of the Holy Spirit is God's Word." These people had never studied God's Word for themselves and knew essentially nothing about it, or how to use God's Word in battle. They believed all they needed was to listen to their pastors and maybe their Sunday school teachers. (Psalm 119:11, see below) Thus, their Bibles were useless because they did not know what was in them except for a few verses they thought guaranteed them everything they wanted: health, wealth, success, etc. There is nowhere in God's Word that says to hold up our Bible as a shield, we are to use the Shield of Faith in battle.
Most Christians are also taught just the first part of Isaiah 54:17 which says: "No weapon formed against you shall prosper." However they overlook the rest of that same verse that makes it clear the Christians also have to fight. That verse goes on to say, "And every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord." Christians have to FIGHT as well.
Many called out for their pastors to protect them, or called upon the Lord for protection from the demons. God's answer to them was, "I have given you all authority over the demons in My Son's name, and provided you with the guidance you need to fight this battle in My Word. Why should I go before you to protect you? I even gave you My armor to protect you and give you victory in this battle. I am protecting your backs, it is your job to take up My authority and fight victoriously against these demons.
Many more simply turned and tried to run from the battlefield. God did not protect them and the demons cut them down quickly. God's Word tells us, "and after having done all, STAND." (Eph. 6, see below) There is no provision for retreat in God's Word! God will protect our backs as we stand firm or go forward in battle, not backwards. God told the retreating Christians that He could not protect their backs because they were running away from the enemy. God thundered: "THERE IS NO RETREAT IN ME!"
All of those struck down by the demons at a minimum turned cold in their relationship with the Lord. Most fell into every sort of sin imaginable. Their children rebelled and their families fell apart, many ending up in divorce. Many who did not receive promises for healing and wealth promised to them by their leaders were accused of not having "enough faith." They turned bitter, lost their faith altogether and turned away from the Lord. The competition between churches increased to gigantic proportions as did the destructive gossip and destructive behavior of one so-called Christian toward another, causing many more to turn away from the Lord. (1 Corinthians 11:27-30, see below)
Some Christians had read and studied God's Word, but were never taught or realized the reality of spiritual warfare. For these, the Holy Spirit was able to bring into their minds the scriptures necessary to enable them to put on the full armor of God and to fight victoriously.
Those who had been taught spiritual warfare, who loved the Lord and His Word, and sought to live completely dedicated to Him and to be pleasing to Him, had the full armor of God shinning on them and in their hands, and they were winning great victories over the demons, driving them back and out of their lives. Sadly, they were few in number.
There were a few Christians who knew about spiritual warfare, but their armor was old, rusted and of little use ,and their swords were dull. These had once been enthusiastic about spiritual warfare, but then the cares of the world, the desire for entertainment, and family matters, drew them away from their total commitment to the Lord and their first love. They fought, but most fell victim to the demon soldiers, unless they quickly repented and asked for the Lord's mercy and returned to their first love and started standing and fighting again. Every person entering the military goes through a thing called basic training. One of the first things they learn is how to clean and keep their weapons and armor in top shape, and readily available.
Ephesians 6:12-18
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints."
2 Timothy 2:1-4
"You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus . . . You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier."
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal [physical] but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing [thought] that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."
1 Corinthians 11:27-30
"Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep."
Psalm 119:11
"Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You."
Matthew 10:34
Jesus said: "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword." "Sword" is used in the spiritual sense.

Moran v. Sturges
This was a proceeding in the supreme court of the state of New York for a voluntary dissolution of Schuyler's Steam Towboat Company, in which Frank D. Sturges was appointed temporary receiver of the company. On petition of the receiver the court granted an order for an injunction restraining Michael Moran, Peter Cahill, Cynthia Cahill, and Jarvis Masters from proceeding upon libels in admiralty filed by them in the district court of the United States for the eastern district of New York; and this order was affirmed on appeal by the general term of the court, and by the court of appeals of the state. 32 N. E. 623, 136 N. Y. 169. The parties so enjoined brought error.
The Schuyler Steam Towboat Company was a corporation organized under the laws of New York. On July 31, 1891, the trustees of the company filed a petition in the supreme court of the state of New York, at Albany county, at chambers, for the voluntary dissolution of the company, under sections 2419 and 2423 of the Code of Civil Procedure of that state, and in their petition prayed for the appointment of a temporary receiver under section 2423, as amended, whose powers and duties were specified in section 1788. Code Civ. Proc. N. Y. 1891, pp. 643, 835, 836. The petition stated that the stock, effects, and other property of the corporation were not sufficient to pay the just amounts for which it was liable, nor to afford reasonable security to those who might deal with it, for the reasons that the corporation was indebted to the Holland Trust Company of New York, in a large sum of money, on a demand loan, payment whereof had been demanded, and that there were no available assets to meet the same; that the corporation had already defaulted upon certain claims set forth in the schedule attached, which were secured by notes which had been presented for payment, and payment refused for want of such assets; that 'other claims set forth in the schedule are either due, or rapidly becoming due, and that there is serious danger of the company's vessels, constituting the sole property of the said company, being libeled in the admiralty courts of the United States for such claims as constitute maritime liens, including the claims for services and supplies rendered to said vessels; that, in the event of said vessels being libeled and sold under a decree in admiralty, there would be little hope in realizing the value of said vessels on such sale, and the security of creditors and stockholders would be seriously imperiled;' that the assets must be realized by sale, and would be insufficient to pay all the claims in full, etc. Thereupon, the presiding judge (the attorney general of New York appearing, and consenting thereto) signed an order to show cause before a referee therein named, on November 16, 1891, why the company should not be dissolved, and by the same order appointed Frank D. Sturges temporary receiver of the property, 'with all the powers, and subject to all the duties, that are defined as belonging to temporary receivers appointed in an action in section 1788 of the Code.' It was further ordered 'that all creditors of said corporation be, and they are hereby, restrained and enjoined from bringing any actions against the said corporation for the recovery of a sum of money, and from taking any further proceedings in any action already commenced against the said corporation for such purpose.' A copy of the order was directed to be published at least once in each of the three weeks immediately preceding November 16, 1891, and that a copy be served upon each of the several persons specified in the schedule attached to the petition as a creditor or stockholder of the corporation. It was further ordered that before entering upon the duties of such receivership the said receiver should execute and acknowledge, in due form of law, a bond in the penal sum of $50,000, payable to the state of New York, with sureties. This order was entered, and the petition and accompanying papers filed in the office of the clerk of the court for Albany county in the forenoon of August 1, 1891. On the afternoon of August 1, 1891, which was Saturday, and on Monday, August 3, 1891, plaintiffs in error, Michael Moran and other co-owners of certain tugs, filed libels in admiralty in the district court of the United States for the eastern district of New York against certain steamboats, which were the property of the Schuyler Company. Process was issued under said libels to the United States marshal for that district, and on August 1st he seized and took into his possession the steamboats Niagara, Belle, and Syracuse, and affixed his notice of seizure thereto. On August 3d he seized and took into his custody the steamboats Vanderbilt, Jacob Leonard, and America, and affixed his notice of seizure thereto. On August 4, 1891, the receiver went on board the steamboats mentioned, and ascertained that the marshal was in possession thereof by his keepers, and he also found affixed to the boats the marshal's notice of seizure. The receiver applied to the state court, August 26th, and was duly autnorized, by order that day in that court entered, to contest said libels, or to take such other proceedings therein as might be advisable, and to use the funds in his hands for the purpose of giving such security as he might be able, as required in contesting the libels. In September, 1891, the receiver made a motion in the United States district court for an order directing the marshal to withdraw from the custody of the steamboats held under the admiralty process. The motion was denied on the ground that the question should be raised by answer to the libels, and leave was given to answer accordingly. The receiver availed himself of this permission, and appeared in one action against each vessel, and filed his answer contesting the jurisdiction of the admiralty court. He thereafter made an application to this court for a writ of prohibition to the district court, which was denied November 13, 1891.
On November 10th the receiver verified a petition addressed to the supreme court of the state of New York, in which he asked that plaintiffs in error herein might be enjoined from prosecuting the libels which they had filed in the district court of the United States for the eastern district of New York. Affidavits were attached to the petition, and on these papers and the preceding record one of the justices of the supreme court of the state entered an order November 11, 1891, that plaintiffs in error show cause at a special term of the court, November 14, 1891, why they should not be enjoined from taking any further proceedings on their libels in the United States courts, and in the mean time plaintiffs in error were enjoined and restrained from taking any further action under their libels, and from attempting any proceeding looking to the condemnation or sale of the steamboats, or any of them. Affidavits in opposition were presented by plaintiffs in error on the hearing of the order to show cause. Certain allegations were made in the petition and the moving affidavit of a knowledge by Moran, at the time he filed the first libel, that a receiver of the company had been appointed. These were denied, and Moran set forth under oath all his information and sources of information on the subject of the proceedings contemplated to dissolve the company, with the dates. The petition set forth that if libelants were permitted to prosecute their libels, and obtain decrees thereunder, and the steamboats were condemned and sold to satisfy the same, it would result in the vessels being sold for less than their value, and that the interest of the corporation and the general creditors thereof would be greatly sacrificed; that the vessels would bring a much larger price if sold as a fleet; that all creditors who were entitled to a preference by having liens, as well as all unsecured creditors, could be fully protected in this proceeding; that petitioner was advised that a larger portion of the claims for which libels had been filed did not constitute liens against the vessels, nor were libelants entitled to any preference for such portion of their claims. The petition further stated that under the order of August 26th the receiver had not sufficient funds to give security to contest all of the libels, and was wholly unable to give the security necessary to release the vessels from the marshal's custody, and for which reason, unless the libelants were restrained from prosecuting the libels, the receiver would be unable to prevent the condemnation and sale of the steamboats. The petition also set forth the receiver's application to the district court of the United States for the eastern district of New York for an order directing the marshal of the district to surrender the custody of the steamboats; the denial thereof on the ground that the question of jurisdiction ought not to be decided upon motion; the leave to the receiver to answer the libels and contest the jurisdiction by answer; his appearance and answer in one action brought against each steamboat for the purpose of testing the jurisdiction of that court, he not being able, as he alleged, to furnish the security necessary in order to answer all the libels, which were some 40 in number. It was also averred that a motion had been made in the district court by Moran for the sale of the steamboats, and that the proceeds be deposited in court to await the result of the action; that the motion was opposed by the receiver, and withdrawn, as to the libels in which he had answered; that the motion had since been urged in the actions in which the receiver had not appeared and answered; and that the district court had intimated that the motion would be granted November 13th. Petitioner denied the jurisdiction of the district court over the steamboats, or any of them, at the time the libels were filed, and asserted that they were at that time in the custody of the state court, and not liable or subject to the attachment made by the marshal. On December 7, 1891, the special term of the supreme court granted the prayer of the receiver, and entered an order for an injunction enjoining plaintiffs in error from taking any further proceedings upon their libels in the district court of the United States for the eastern district of New York against the steamboat company, or against the steamboats of that company, except the Niagara, and from taking any action whatsoever under said libels, and in proceedings looking to the condemnation and sale of the steamboats, or any of them, except the Niagara.
Plaintiffs in error appealed from that order to the general term, by which it was affirmed; and they then carried the case to the court of appeals of the state of New York, which affirmed the order of the general term (136 N. Y. 169, 32 N. E. 623), and directed that its judgment be made the judgment of the supreme court, which was done December 6, 1892, whereupon this writ of error was sued out.
Jas. E. Carpenter, Jos. F. Mosher, and R. D. Benedict, for plaintiffs in error.
Jas. W. Eaton, for defendant in error.
[Argument of Counsel from pages 262-267 intentionally omitted]
Mr. Chief Justice FULLER, after stating the facts in the foregoing language, delivered the opinion of the court.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).

Saint Demetrius, New Martyr of Sliven
The Holy New Martyr Demetrius was born on October 9, 1818 in Sliven, Bulgaria. His parents had no children for the first eight years of their marriage. Their prayers to God were answered, and their sons Stephen and Demetrius were born.
Demetrius was the younger son, and was brought up in a pious manner. He did not go to school, but he attended church frequently and memorized many prayers and services.
After their parents died, Stephen left home and went to Wallachia. Demetrius remained in the family home, which soon collapsed because of its age. The Moslems used this excuse to seize the surrounding property, and Demetrius became a servant to one of them. The family tried to convert him to their religion, but Demetrius resisted such attempts. "Our Orthodox Christian religion was given to us by the Lord Jesus Christ," he said, "while yours was given to you by Mohammed, a mere man."
They threw Demetrius out of the house when they heard this, and he later became a baker. Even while selling his bread in the marketplace, Demetrius proclaimed the Orthodox Faith and pointed out the deficiencies of Islam. Naturally, this outraged the Moslems, and they began to plan their revenge.
A new kadi came to Sliven, and Demetrius was chosen to prepare the food. The local beys chose him because they knew he had insulted Islam. The kadi offered him tobacco and liquor, but Demetrius said that he did not smoke or drink. When he tried to leave, the kadi said, "Let me make you a Moslem. You see what a good life we have. If you convert, I will tell your master to give you his daughter in marriage, and half of his riches."
Demetrius answered sarcastically, "Oh, sure."
Mistaking this for a serious reply, one of the Moslems began wrapping cloth around the young man's head in the form of a turban. Demetrius threw the turban to the ground and ran from the house. Some of the Hagarenes chased him, but were unable to catch him. For three days he hid in the village of Ichera without food or water.
Demetrius went to a bishop and told him his story. The bishop encouraged him to remain Orthodox, then sent him away with a gold coin and a wooden cross.
Exchanging the coin for change, Demetrius gave half the money to the poor. Then he went up to a Moslem guard and said that he was the one they were seeking. He was escorted back to Sliven with his hands tied behind him. When he met an Orthodox Christian Demetrius said, "Forgive me, brethren. I gave myself up to these ungodly people for the glory of our Faith."
When Saint Demetrius was thrown into prison, he asked for his brother the priest Stephen to visit him. His request was refused, but Father Stephen learned that Demetrius was incarcerated and tried to have him freed. The kadi ordered Demetrius to be brought to him while he was dining with other officials.
The kadi asked Demetrius if he was willing to accept Islam. Christ's holy martyr informed him that he had never promised to become a Moslem, and he had no intention of doing so. "If you took my irony for truth, I am sorry for you." He went on to call Mohammed a false prophet, and his followers sons of Satan.
The kadi told Demetrius that if he did not become a Moslem, he would be put to death. Then he sent him back to prison for three days to consider this. When he was brought before the kadi again, Demetrius refused to convert. Then he was ordered to be executed.
When the other Christians heard of Demetrius's fearless confession of faith and his impending death, they brought Father Stephen to him. Demetrius told the priest he was afraid that he would not be able to endure the tortures. Father Stephen urged him to remain strong and bear witness to Christ.
Saint Demetrius remained in prison for a whole year. His tortures continued, and no one was able to help him. At the beginning of the year, many Moslems gathered and shouted for the kadi to execute Demetrius. Therefore, he summoned Demetrius before him. The fearless martyr remained unshaken in his resolve, and mocked their faith.
For the last time Demetrius was offered the choice of converting to Islam or being put to death. He said he would remain a Christian whatever they did to him. Father Stephen came to the prison to hear the saint's confession and give him Communion.
On the morning of January 30, 1841 Demetrius was brought to the place of execution. He asked forgiveness of the Christians he met, entreating them to pray for him. Then they ordered him to kneel on the ground for beheading. The first stroke did not sever his head, and he remained motionless. With the second stroke, the martyr's head fell to the ground. The Christians soaked cloths in his blood, and Father Stephen collected some of the blood-soaked earth in a box.
The holy relics remained unburied all night. The kadi ordered the body to be thrown into the river the next day, because Moslems believe that the bodies of those who insult Mohammed should not be received by the earth. After a sufficient bribe had been paid, the kadi released the body for burial in the garden of the monastery. Saint Demetrius now lives in the heavenly Kingdom, glorifying most holy Trinity, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit throughout all ages.

Op-Ed: Why I'm a Democrat — The champions of civil rights
Yukio Strachan
Sep 15, 2012 in
As a rape survivor and member of the black community, watching the GOP push voter ID laws to suppress the minority vote and forcing a woman to carry a rapist's baby to term, the question "Why am I a Democrat?" seems like a punch-line to a very bad joke.
I've been a Democrat since the womb.
Both my parents are Democrats. My mom grew up in the south where the humiliation of segregation and discrimination was a daily reality. Eventually, it was the Democratic Party that stepped up to the plate and crushed the laws that deprived black Americans from equality.
Laws that bring tears to my eyes when my mom tells me stories about being a little girl having to bypass the front entrance to the doctor's office because the color of her skin made her unworthy to enter there. Laws that pointed to the rear of the building, the back door — the dingy one marked for "Colored" people only — if she was sick and needed to see a doctor.
Those laws, called Jim Crow laws, ended under Democratic President Lyndon Baines Johnson when he signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law. This groundbreaking piece of legislation not only benefited blacks in terms of banning segregation and discrimination in public facilities, in employment, and in education, the act also benefited women and other victims of discrimination, too.
Democratic Party: cares about the issues women face
Despite the civil rights gains of the 1960s, however, discrimination and inequality are still alive and well in many parts of our society. In 2012, the Democratic party continues to fight on their behalf.
In 1994, for example, Vice President Joe Biden, then a Senator,
the landmark Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)on the
that "every woman deserves to be safe from violence," a crime that kills three women each day.
Thinkprogress via Twitter screenshot
VAWA is an act near and dear to my heart, an act, that helped to save my life eight years ago next month. I thank you, Vice President Biden, for authoring this law. And I thank our leaders for continuing to fight for its complete re-authorization.
"We pull each other up"
What causes those in positions of power to fight on behalf of those who had no voice? It was the power of compassion or empathy. That's why voters see empathy as an important quality for our leaders to have, especially our presidents. The president needs the capacity for empathy toward all the people he or she governs, not just the privileged few.
President Harry Truman, for example, in 1947 was outraged that black veterans of World War II were being murdered because of the color of their skin. As a result, he decided to take action, shocking the nation by deciding to make civil rights a national issue.
What makes this story so powerful is that Truman at one time harbored racial biases. But the murder of those black veterans seemed to penetrate him and touch him in such a way that urged him forward to act on their behalf. He also had some help at the time from a little known mayor from Minneapolis named Hubert H. Humphrey.
On July 14, 1948, Humphrey, who would later become the Vice President to Lyndon Johnson, delivered a powerful speech before the Democratic National Convention at Philadelphia that convinced the party to support adding civil rights to the party platform. Despite opposition, complacency, and racial tension he persisted until the act was signed into law in 1964.
Humphrey's civil rights platform was often called radical socialism by his GOP rivals.
"Compassion is not weakness, and concern for the unfortunate is not socialism," he said in response.
The President signing health care reform into law
White House Photo by Pete Souza
In 2012, President Obama carries on this tradition with the passage of the health care reform law. It aims to provide affordable, quality health care to 34 million uninsured Americans. On Wednesday, new figures from the
US Census Bureau
from 2011 show that the new health care reform law works. Over 4 million more people had health care coverage in 2011 than in 2010.
It's just the beginning. There's more to be done.
"We pull each other up," President Obama said during his DNC speech in Charlotte. "When you walk through the door of opportunity," said first lady Michelle Obama in her DNC speech. "You don't slam it shut behind you. You reach back and you give folks the same chances that helped you!" I couldn't agree more.
That's why I'm a proud Democrat.

This week we looked at collective efforts and cognitive surplus. One of the first ever efforts of a collective cognitive surplus project was the development of Linux, and alternate operating system from the then rapidly growing Microsoft Disc Operating System, commonly known as MS-DOS. From It's beginning in 1991, the Linux project (named, begrudgingly, after its founder, Linus Torvalds, a Finnish student) was designed as a free operating system that allows its users the opportunity to add, change, and edit the software by submitting suggestions to the various maintainers throughout the world. The fact that these "maintainers" still had ultimate authority on changes made still does not eliminate the fact that the system is still built on free thinking ideas and a collective cognitive surplus effort.
Perhaps the largest, most successful and most popular cognitive surplus project has been Wikipedia. Started by Larry Wales and Jimmy Sanger in 2001, this online encyclopedia has grown to over 4 ½ million articles. Comprised entirely of reader contributions, nearly anyone with internet access can create, add to, or edit articles.
Linux would be helpful if you were looking for an operating system and Wikipedia has posts on nearly every topic imaginable. I am not certain; however, if I am necessarily ready to contribute to these projects or others like them. Perhaps if there was a similar project which I could be comfortable as a "subject matter expert". An example may be in the Electrical Distribution industry. There are many, many very specific areas which I consider myself far more knowledgeable than many who have a similar number of years of experience as I have. The reason is because in traveling throughout the country, and in fact most of North and Central America, I have seen nearly every imaginable configuration of electrical transmission and distribution scheme (though every time I say that I learn of a new odd voltage or grounded B phase system that I just hadn't previously considered). I might also consider Power Transformers (Oil Filled) and sub-stations. Outside of that very specific area of expertise, I would probably feel the community would be better served by true experts in the field. However, if I see a contribution that I know to be false, I may feel compelled to correct that item. And therein lies the problem, at least in my eyes, with cognitive surplus projects.
Earlier in the semester we learned of Marshall McLuhan's Theory of Technological Determinism, and during the "Print Age", many people began to accept as true anything in print, because if someone went to the trouble and expense to print something, then it must be have been true. At least in the 15th century it seemed to make sense. But today, in the 21st century, many, many people post things online that are blatantly false, and they do so in such a manner as to intentionally mislead millions of people in the hope that their cause, business, idea, or whatever is believed, promoted, adopted and spread further. The "promise" is to add some value to a person's life, even though so much of it is simply untrue.
I remember growing up there was a saying that "if you hear it from three different sources it must be true". Today, a person can create multiple sources under the guise of different identities and repeat the same fallacies so many times that before too long people just accept them as to be true. Here is a great example: If you require a state issued ID in order to vote, it will discriminate against minorities. Now everyone knows that is a ridiculous statement. Every single citizen in this country has some form of ID. That is a simple fact. Yet, many politicians go on and on about how asking for ID is in some way discriminatory. Why would anyone say such a thing? Are minorities not capable of driving? Well, that is a pretty stupid statement. Are minorities incapable of attending school? Again, another very ridiculously stupid statement. The fact is that every person eligible to vote in this country has a valid ID, or if for some reason they have lost it they can acquire one in less than a couple of hours, so anyone making the claim that asking for voters to produce an ID is somehow discriminatory is simply promoting voter fraud under the guise of equal opportunity. Yet this is an example of saying something over and over, and some percentage of our population actually will begin to believe it.
That is the issue with some cognitive surplus projects. Without well adhered to checks and balances, the original goal could easily become foggy and in fact changed, similar to the old alligator and swamp story…

Exclusion criteria were cleft lip, previous nasal operation, and previous or simultaneous additional midfacial operations. The range in both groups was large, indicating great individual variability. They also suggested that a modified cinch suture may result in greater stability. Group 2 showed a near pre-operative alar position compared to group 1. In the cnch region the suthre line should not be placed too high in order not to lose the bone contact and to avoid entrance into a low piriform aperture.
The width of the alar base was measured before operation, and then at one, and six months.
Nasal widening is commonly associated to maxillary osteotomies, but it is only partially dependent on the amount of skeletal movement. Cinch suture as an adjuvant procedure does not eliminate post-operative alar flare completely because it does not address the other contributing factors like the loss of pyriform depth and septal resection, which needs further evaluation.
Intergroup comparison was done by independent sample t test and it pronounced the following results: Changes to the nose clearly occur after Le Fort 1 osteotomy superior repositioning.
Cinh suture is tied only if the cinching effect is adequate; otherwise, the maneuver has to be repeated. As soon as the correct plane is reached, the dissection is continued bluntly. Hari Kishore Bhat, Email: Mean and standard deviation of pre—post operative cijch in groups 1 and 2 aalr Paired sample t test in groups 1 and 2 to determine p value. A suture is passed through the insertion area of the labial muscles.
We believe that the strength of our modified technique is based on its simplicity and consistency; the midline knot anchored to the hole in the nasal spine allows a more symmetric result and avoids the problem of an infection or a foreign body reaction in the skin.
Le Fort 1 intrusion osteotomies are known to cause adverse effects on the oro-facial soft tissues such as broadening of the alar base, loss of vermillion show of the upper lip and down sloping of the commissure [ 1 ]. This adds to the alsr of the study. During Le Fort 1 osteotomy with superior repositioning of the maxilla, we observed that there was a reduction in the depth of the nasal aperture. Lip—nasal aesthetics following Clnch Fort I osteotomy. Thirty-two patients with skeletal class III facial deformity who had orthognathic operations by the same surgeon were recruited in this study.
The free ends of the sutures are tied into a firm knot against the forcep that hold them together.
Use of the alar base cinch suture in Le Fort I osteotomy: is it effective?
The suture did not significantly influence nasal sutuer projection. Indeed, periosteal elevation disinserts the facial muscles from the naso-labial area and the anterior nasal spine.
When the loop is tightened the alar bases are pulled medially. Eur J Plast Surg.
Use of the alar base cinch suture in Le Fort I osteotomy: is it effective?
The alar base cinch suture is often used to mitigate the unfavourable increase in nasal width after Le Fort I impaction or advancement of the maxilla.
Techniques for controlling lateralization of the ala, including the alar base cinch technique, originally described by Millard, have been well reported by Collins and Epker and later modified by others. The vestibular mucosa is advanced with a skin hook in the midline to pull the soft-tissue envelope anteriorly. Nasal changes after surgical correction of skeletal correction of skeletal Class III malocclusion in Koreans.
Compliance with Ethical Standards Conflict of interest None.
Since this part of the dissection is done without visual control, the tip of the periosteal elevator is always kept in intimate contact with the bony surface. Efficacy and stability of the alar base cinch suture.
Conclusion Cunch conclude that Le Fort 1 osteotomy superior repositioning leads to a widening of alar region of the nose, especially the alar base.
The anterior nasal spine and the lower border of the cartilaginous septum are addressed by soft-tissue retraction with a forked angle retractor and the perichondrium on top of the cartilaginous septal border is incised.
In the sample, there were 13 men and 19 women, average age There were no major or minor complications. A cindh stick shaped incision with alat vertical vestibular extension at the dorsal ends A has the advantage of being easily extendible onto the zygomatic prominence, while the risk of uncontrolled tearing of the mucosa during retraction is reduced in contrast to a horizontal posterior cut B.

What a lovely and scenic area just unto itself. Having been in the area a number of times from 2005(twice) and about every year to 2008. One can camp at the Rayport, have done that a time or 2 and/or stay at what use to be called the Oak Island spa and resort which was reasonably priced. I've done a combination of both. Chiling at the camp ground with everyone is the best but driving between the hotel where things have been held and back to the campground is tricky.
There are also reasonably priced bed and breakfasts in the area.
Its not inexpensive by no means but its worth it. The ferry ride is what kilz ya pocket book but it does cut off a crap load of hours and miles of traveling.
I pretty much hang in the Western Shore section when I'm there (and I'm over due to go back). I did make it to the first exit in Halifax and turned around and came back to the Western Shore and one other time to Halifax to bring Vincent to the airport.
The ferry ride sux no matter which way you come in. I've seen it turn into a major puke fest more than once,lol. I been from Bar Harbor most of the times and once from St John, NB to Digby,NS and that was nice once in Digby as the ride thru the kilmiugaga national park is scenic and relaxing. Bar Harbor is a nice place to spend a day or so poking around before heading to NS.
While access to Oak Island island is strictly forbidden unless subscribing to the for pay tours that are offered thru out the summers,there is much to do in the towns of Mahone and Chester. Another place called Peggys Cove. On a note the Oak ISland resort and spa is position in such a way that you can openly see Oak Island from its decks. If you rent one of their cabins its shore to shore view. And by camp fire, well that can be real fun and cool.
The Island View and Moe's are 2 of the restaurants that use to be located down there near Oak ISland and the food at both places are reaonably priced and tons of food. As you head into places ike Mahonne Bay the restaurants get a little more fancier and pricier. The breakfast buffet at the Oak ISland spa and resort was inexpensive and many selections offered.
All in all a great destination.

Freedom House tracking human rights or promoting liberal agenda?
Freedom House, a group that tracks and monitors human rights abuses, is out with its latest Freedom in the World report. It appears that some left-wing priorities, however, have trumped accuracy.
With regard to the Middle East, Christian Whiton, a former State Department official and now a consultant, e-mails, "Iraq still apparently 'not free', according to liberal Freedom House, despite elected coalition government. It may become actually 'not free' if Iran is allowed to pull another Lebanon there, but this judgment seems to be residual bias against the freedom accomplished by U.S. arms." He muses that Iraq might have earned at least a "partially free" rating because "Iraqis actually choose their government."
It is the same story in South America. Whiton points out "that Colombia is still in the same 'partially free' category as Venezuela."
Last June, the Post editorial board observed:
Juan Manuel Santos has demonstrated that pro-American, pro-free-market politicians still have life in Latin America. Mr. Santos, who romped to victory in Colombia's presidential runoff on Sunday, has no interest in courting Iran, unlike Brazil's Luiz Ignácio Lula da Silva. He has rejected the authoritarian socialism of Venezuela's Hugo Chávez. A former journalist with degrees from the University of Kansas and Harvard, he values free media and independent courts. His biggest priority may be ratifying and implementing a free-trade agreement between Colombia and the United States.
The question raised by Mr. Santos's election is whether the Obama administration and Democratic congressional leaders will greet this strong and needed U.S. ally with open arms -- or with the arms-length disdain and protectionist stonewalling to which they subjected his predecessor, Álvaro Uribe
Although Uribe, as the Post editorial board recognized, left behind "a strong democratic system," Congressional Democrats "have "treated [Colombia] more as an enemy than friend" in reducing aid and blocking the free-trade agreement. Meanwhile, the Obama administration has turned a blind eye, or, in fact, tried to improve relations with Hugo Chavez's dictatorship, as well as the serial human rights-abusing Cuba.
It is hard not to see a left-wing agenda at work in Freedom House's rating system. Whiton deadpans: "I'm surprised they didn't downgrade Canada and Britain to the 'partially free' category since they have center-right governments." Well, let's hope Freedom House sticks to its stated mission, rather than acting as a mouthpiece for the left's foreign policy agenda.
UPDATE (7p.m.): I have heard from a few true warriors for human rights. They agree that these ratings were bad mistakes, but make a convincing case that Freedom House is generally one of the most diligent human rights organizations that rejects the anti-Israel and anti-American bent of many other groups. Upon reflection, I accept that characterization and appreciate the input. A more precise statement would be that the errors on ratings may very well play into an agenda of those on the Left.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, keep an eye on this blog, I'll let you know if I plan to stick with it or not but for the time being I'll try my best to update via all my current providers while I build up a larger number of followers via this site.

I believe in the power of healing, self compassion, personal psychology, spirituality, motivation, and change; I believe in intuition, honesty, imperfection, moving through emotion, getting obstacles out of the way, and crafting a proud, light and joy filled life.
I believe many people are suffering behind masks of insincerity and pain--with little understanding of how much better life can be when we step into the light of our lives. I believe facing ourselves in our fears to create positive change is the most courageous thing we can do.
When we each step up to do our individual healing, through the butterfly effect, we change the world. I believe in the power of my personal healing and I believe in your power to find what you need to live with fullness, peace, connection, and light.

The Flash, now with fresh Game Boy scent
The Flash game for Game Boy Advance is definitely one of the greatest action games for the Game boy. The game has you play as the Flash, in a beat-em-up that reminds one of Double Dragon. Besides punching, you can pinball attack to enemies, where you zoom back and forth between them hitting them, a whirlwind attack, where you run around an enemy striking them, and a ground slam attack. The Flash can also jump into "Flash time", which slows down the enemies, so you can get some extra hits, or get out of danger.
Villain-wise, you fight some classics: Grodd and Zoom, along with Circe, Killer Frost, and Braniac. Additionally, on your last life, if you die, as you stagger, go into Flash Time, and you can fight the Black Flash. It's pure awesome.
Bonus wise, you can race Superman, which is a pretty neat tribute to the comic book races between the two.
Buy this game. It's awesome. The Flash demands it!

Sweet, I was looking at that game in the store the other day, but wasn't too sure about it. Maybe I'll have to check it out.

You definitely have to check it out. it's fun! Some of the bosses are a pain, though (mostly Circe). And the Zoom fight can be a little tricky. But it's still good times.
