Hans Urs von Balthasar (12 August 1905 – 26 June 1988) was a Swiss theologian and Catholic priest who is considered an important Roman Catholic theologian of the 20th century.[13]
Balthasar was born in Lucerne, Switzerland, on 12 August 1905, to a wealthy family. Bishop Vilmos Apor was his uncle. He was educated first by Benedictine monks at the abbey school at Engelberg in central Switzerland. Before finishing his secondary education, however, Balthasar was moved by his parents to the Stella Matutina College run by the Society of Jesus in Feldkirch, Austria. In 1923, he enrolled in the University of Zurich. His studies in philosophy and German literature led him to study subsequently in Vienna and Berlin and culminated in his doctoral work on German literature and idealism.[14]
In 1929, having submitted his thesis, he entered the Society of Jesus ("Jesuits") in Germany, since the Jesuits were banned in Switzerland until 1973. For three years he studied philosophy at Pullach, near Munich, and came into contact with Erich Przywara, whose work on analogia entis (the analogy of being) was very influential on him. In 1932, he moved to Fourvières, the Jesuit school at Lyon, for his four years of theological study. Here he encountered Jean Daniélou, Gaston Fessard, and Henri de Lubac. Daniélou and de Lubac were both to become notable from the 1940s onwards as members of the nouvelle théologie, a group of thinkers raising deep questions about the neoscholastic doctrine of grace and nature, with its suggestion that human nature could be conceived of in isolation from its relation to the vision of God. Both Daniélou and de Lubac, as part of their re-assessment of neo-scholastic thought, were increasingly turning to studies of patristic thinkers. Balthasar received from these theological studies an enduring love of the Church Fathers, which was later to lead to his studies of Origen of Alexandria (1938), Maximus the Confessor, Kosmische Liturgie (1941), and Gregory of Nyssa, Présence et pensée (1942).
Having completed his training in seven years, because of his previous studies, Balthasar was ordained a priest in 1936. He then worked briefly in Munich, on the Jesuit journal Stimmen der Zeit. In 1940, with the Nazi regime encroaching on the freedom of Catholic journalists, he left Germany and began work in Basel as a student chaplain.[15]
While in Basel he met Adrienne von Speyr. She was a twice-married Protestant medical doctor in chronically poor health, who through her mystical experiences would have a huge impact on Balthasar's later thought. In 1940 he received her into the Catholic Church. In 1945, they founded a religious society, the Community of Saint John (Johannesgemeinschaft), for men and women. This became more widely known three years later when Balthasar produced a theology for secular institutes in his work Der Laie und der Ordenstand, the first book to be published by the Johannes Verlag, a publishing house established[16] with the help of a friend.
Because the Jesuits did not see running the institute as compatible with belonging to the society, von Balthasar had to choose between remaining a Jesuit and his involvement with the institute. In 1950, he left the Society of Jesus,[17] feeling that God had called him to continue his work with this secular institute, a form of consecrated life that sought to work for the sanctification of the world from within the world. He accordingly remained without a role in the church until, in 1956, he was incardinated into the Diocese of Chur as a secular priest.
Balthasar was not invited to take part in any capacity in the Second Vatican Council, but in later years his reputation as a theologian grew. In 1969, Pope Paul VI appointed him to the International Theological Commission, and in 1984 he was awarded the first Paul VI International Prize for his contributions to theology.[17]
From the low point of being banned from teaching as a result of his leaving the Society of Jesus,[18] his reputation eventually rose to the extent that Pope John Paul II named him to be a cardinal in 1988. He died, however, in his home in Basel on 26 June 1988, two days before the ceremony which would have granted him that position.[19] His remains were interred in the Hofkirche cemetery in Lucerne.[20][21]
Along with Karl Rahner and Bernard Lonergan, Balthasar sought to offer a response to Western modernity, which posed a challenge to traditional Catholic thought.[13]:262 While Rahner offered a progressive, accommodating position on modernity and Lonergan worked out a philosophy of history that sought to critically appropriate modernity, Balthasar resisted the reductionism and human focus of modernity, wanting Christianity to be more challenging toward modern sensibilities.;[13]:262 [22] Balthasar is very eclectic in his approach, sources, and interests and remains difficult to categorize.[13]:2 An example of his eclecticism was his long study and conversation with the influential Reformed Swiss theologian, Karl Barth, on whose work he wrote the first Catholic analysis and response. Although Balthasar's major points of analysis on Karl Barth's work have been disputed, his The Theology of Karl Barth: Exposition and Interpretation (1951) remains a classic work for its sensitivity and insight; Karl Barth himself agreed with its analysis of his own theological enterprise, calling it the best book on his own theology.[23]
Writings and thought[edit]
Balthasar's first major work, the three-volume Apokalypse der deutschen Seele (1937–39) (Apocalypse of the German Soul) was an expansion of his dissertation and a study in German literature, theology, and philosophy. Published in Germany and Austria during the Third Reich, one scholar has argued that the work contains anti-Semitism.[24]
Balthasar was better known for his 15-volume systematics (Trilogy), published from 1961–1985, which is divided into three parts according to John 14:6 ("I am the way, the truth, and the life"), and therefore according to the transcendentals bonum, verum, and pulchrum (the good, the true and the beautiful).[25][26]
(1) The Glory of the Lord (7 volumes) a work on 'theological aesthetics'. One of the often quoted passages from the entire Trilogy comes from the First Volume (Seeing the Form) of The Glory of the Lord:
Before the beautiful—no, not really before but within the beautiful—the whole person quivers. He not only 'finds' the beautiful moving; rather, he experiences himself as being moved and possessed by it.[13]:270
(2) Theo-Drama: Theological Dramatic Theory (5 volumes), a work on 'theodramatics', examines the ethics and goodness in the action of God and in the human response, especially in the events of Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday. Balthasar's soteriology, christology, and eschatology, are here developed.
(3) The final group of volumes is titled Theo-Logic (3 volumes), describing the truth about the relation of the nature of Jesus Christ (christology) to reality itself (ontology, or the study of being). He completes the third part of his trilogy with a brief Epilogue.
A distinctive thought in Balthasar's work is that our first experience after birth is the face of love of our mothers, where the I encounters for the first time the Thou, and the Thou smiles in a relationship of love and sustenance.[13]:236
Balthasar also wrote of the lives of saints and Church fathers. Saints appear as an example of the lived Christian life throughout his writings. Instead of merely systematic analysis of theology, Balthasar described his theology as a "kneeling theology" deeply connected to contemplative prayer and as a "sitting theology" intensely connected to faith seeking understanding guided by the heart and mind of the Catholic Church.[13]:265
Balthasar was very concerned that his writings address spiritual and practical issues. He insisted that his theology never be divorced from the mystical experiences of his long-time friend and convert, the physician Adrienne von Speyr.[27]
Balthasar published varied works spanning many decades, fields of study (e.g., literature and literary analysis, lives of the saints, and the Church Fathers), and languages.
Balthasar used the expression Casta Meretrix to argue that the term Whore of Babylon was acceptable in a certain tradition of the Church, in the writings of Rabanus Maurus for instance.[28]
At Balthasar's funeral, then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, later to become Pope Benedict XVI, said, speaking of Balthasar's work in general: "What the pope intended to express by this mark of distinction [i.e., elevation to the cardinalate], and of honor, remains valid; no longer only private individuals but the Church itself, in its official responsibility, tells us that he is right in what he teaches of the faith."[29]
On his 1970 book Theologie der Drei Tage (English translation: Mysterium Paschale), von Balthasar explored the meaning of Holy Saturday, where Jesus Christ dies and descends to the dead, to be resurrected by God the Father. His exegesis emphasizes that Jesus was not betrayed but surrendered and delivered up by himself, since the meaning of the Greek word used by the New Testament, paradidonai (παραδιδόναι, Latin: tradere), is unequivocally "handing over of self".[30][31] In the "Preface to the Second Edition", Balthasar takes a cue from Revelation 13:8[32] (Vulgate: agni qui occisus est ab origine mundi, NIV: "the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world") to extrapolate the idea that God as "immanent Trinity" can endure and conquer godlessness, abandonment, and death in an "eternal super-kenosis".[33][34] Christ would deposit His divine knowledge with the Father before the Incarnation and, after it, He would literally be "made sin" (2 Corinthians 5:21), experiencing in Sheol after His death on the cross a state of abandonment from the Father worse than hell. In the words of Balthasar himself: "At this point, where the subject undergoing the 'hour' is the Son speaking with the Father, the controversial 'Theopaschist formula' has its proper place: 'One of the Trinity has suffered.'[35] The formula can already be found in Gregory Nazianzen: 'We needed a...crucified God'."[36]
His other controversial theological assertions were in favour of a rehabilitation of Origen and his soteriology. In a sort of conflict among the theological virtues, since "Love believes all things, [but also] hopes all things" (1 Corinthians 13:7), what for fides must be rejected, for spes must be accepted, in order to recover with the theology of hope what in 553 the dogmatic theology had condemned with the anathema of the fifth Ecumenical Council of Constantinople against the possibility of apocatastasis, i.e. of a universal salvation.[37][38][39] Universal salvation, if it happens, would be the result of the "utter abandonment the Son undergoes".[40] Balthasar cited the list of other Catholic thinkers who have agreed with such a perspective: Przywara, de Lubac, Fessard, Blondel, Péguy, Claudel, Marcel, Bloy, Ratzinger, Kasper, Greshake, Guardini, Rahner. "In summa: a company in which one can feel quite comfortable."[41]

Balthasar's Theological Dramatic Theory has influenced the work of Raymund Schwager.[42]
Balthasar's major writings have been translated into English, and the journal he co-founded with Henri de Lubac, Karl Lehmann, and Joseph Ratzinger, Communio, currently appears in twelve languages. In delivering his eulogy, Ratzinger, quoting de Lubac, called Balthasar, "perhaps the most cultured man of our time,"[43] In March 2018, together with Adrienne von Speyr, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Chur formally opened their cause towards canonisation.[44] Von Balthasar has also been highly influential in the work of Bishop Robert Barron, who has been an ardent advocate of von Balthasar's soteriology.[45]

We previously shared with you a track off the EP named "Sirens." To celebrate the release of the EP, Proffitt has decided to let go of another cut from the EP. This time it's "In Flames" which sees Proffitt useing Bon Iver-esque vocal effects to enhance the emotional intensity of his vocals. It's uses to haunting effect, presenting a lingering sadness that hovers like a shadow."In Flames" was made in collaboration with producer Crywolf, and is a beauty.

A free-piston hydrogen fueled engine is considered as one of the next power systems which is able to obtain high efficiency and low emission, simultaneously. In this study, in order to ensure the possibility as the next generation power system, the combustion characteristics and the performance of the free-piston hydrogen fueled engine are analyzed by using the linear RICEM for the change of injection pressure and equivalence ratio.

With the current situation we have regrettably cancelled the April re-union and postponed the summer camp. We move forward in hope that the summer camp will still be able to run in some form.

Out of his infinite glory, may he give you the power through the Spirit for your hidden self to grow strong, so that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, and then, planted in love and built on love, you will with all the saints have strength to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth; until, knowing the love of Christ , which is beyond all knowledge, you are filled with the utter fullness of God.
Glory be to him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or image; glory be to him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.

Atlantic Broadband Names Dutch Telecom Exec van der Post New President
Cojeco Communications has named Frank van der Post the new president of its Atlantic Broadband subsidiary.
Van der Post replaces Richard Shea, the Cogeco's former top U.S. cable executive, who left in April for what were described as personal reasons.
Van der Post, arrives from Dutch telecom KPN, where he last served as chief commercial officer, and was on the board from 2015-2018. He'll report to Philippe Jetté, president and CEO of Canada's Cogeco Communications, and will start his new post on Nov. 4.
"Frank's proven leadership skills combined with his strong strategic marketing knowledge and a track record of successfully delivering results, particularly in industries that are highly customer-focused, make him an ideal candidate to take the leadership role at Atlantic Broadband," Jetté said, in a statement.
Prior to joining KPN, van der Post worked for British Airways and InterContinental Hotels Group.

Although most houses are sold through a real estate agent, many sellers decide to sell on their own. Many situations occur when you want to sell your home without going through an agent. For example, you may be relocating and purchase of your new home is dependent on sale of your current property. You may want to avoid paying the roughly 6% of sales price in commissions, or avoid having showings scheduled during all hours of the day. Whatever your reason for wanting to sell without an agent, you need to have a plan to get it sold. We have provided some steps bellow that may assist you.
Research the market. Before you decide on selling your home without an agent, you need to get a pretty good idea of value. The investment firm, Whitestone Acquisitions, is happy to provide a complimentary, home value analysis at https://www.whitestoneacquisitions.net/#!sell-your-home/cx3. You can also search values on popular public websites such as Trulia and Zillow. Please note, sometimes do not provide the most current sales information. Also Zillow, even states on their website, that the "zestimate" is just a "starting point to determine home's value". Also consult your current tax value, but keep in mind that the assessment rate is generally 80% of value.
Determine the right time to list. Sellers can be more successful at certain times of the year. You may want to sellbefore school begins, and not near the December holidays.In the middle of the school year, you might not get interest in your single family home since a large majority of your potential buyers do not want to uproot their children from their current school district. However please keep in mind that when homes are priced appropriately, and show as described by owner, you can sell any time of year. Also, if you plan to sell to investors, they generally buy year round.
Find buyers. If you are going to sell your house fast, you will have to find buyers. List your home on the numerous websites dedicated to for sale by owner properties. Contact companies like Whitestone Acquisitions that purchases properties AS-IS year round in Texas and Colorado. You also can use online advertising to sell your home. Talk to friends and family to see if they know anyone looking for a home in your area. Use social media to showcase your house.
Price your home properly. After doing your research in Step 1, you can list it at an appropriate price. Try to take a step back and look at your home objectively. Does it need updating throughout? What is the condition of the "big expenditure" items such as foundation, roof, and HVAC system?
Prepare your home for showings. Get rid of the clutter. You could rent a storage facility and take out anything that might detract from potential buyers. Remember though, investors such as Whitestone Acquisitions truly purchase AS-IS and can even assist you in removal and donation of unwanted items. Consider getting professional pictures done.
Sell it. Accept the offer that makes the most sense to you and gives you the most back into your pocket. Take into consideration everything, and not sales price alone. Look at close date, earnest money, Title Company, option/inspection period and buyer's proposed financing.You can obtain the appropriate state's contracts and addendums online, however it is advised to have a real estate attorney review if you choose to do draw it up yourself. Investment companies like Whitestone Acquisitions is made up of licensed agents and brokers to ensure the real estate contract is accurate and valid.
If you have questions about selling your home without an agent, or finding out what your home is worth, you can find the answers online at www.whitestoneacquisitions.net.

Masks: Tales of Heroism and Villainy

RE: Masks: Tales of Heroism and Villainy
Maria smiled behind her helmet. "That'll do fine, hope you're ready to test it Sharie!"
"Colonel, we've got an equivalent. Good luck out there, hold tight, yeah, you'll have backup if we don't fuck up royally!"
Corn misread something, so instead of doing what was previously here, Maria decided she was going to wreck the siege line since it was just in her range. So they didn't have to worry about that when they were leaving. Or right then. Or ever. Bowling things over helped that. She'd spend this turn doing that, sending all of the water she could hold up to swipe the launchers away, or at least topple them. Also, if she could tumble the aliens around it and drag them back? All the better.

Boston Airport Taxis (BOS)
Logan International Airport is a very important airport in the United States of America. It serves the large city of Boston, and has the official IATA code of BOS. It is located in the East Boston neighbourhood, and partly in the town of Winthrop. The airport is also nearby to the Logan Dock from where there are direct connections to downtown Boston. Approximately 28 million passengers pass through the airport each year, and many of these passengers like to travel to and from the airport by taxi. The Logan International Airport taxis provide a quick and convenient form of transport, and are quite reasonably priced for a private transport service.
The Boston Logan International Airport has four large terminal buildings for passenger operations, and six runways. It is served by over forty airline companies that serve more than one hundred non-stop destinations around the world. There are many flights to and from other cities in the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Caribbean. Each terminal of the airport is equipped with a baggage processing facility, as well as check-in counters. The terminal of departure or arrival will mainly depend on the destination/origin of the flight and the airline company in use. Terminal E is the international terminal, where all international fights will arrive, besides those from airports with US border preclearance facilities. Convenient for arriving passengers, taxis are readily available outside each of the terminals (A, B, C and E).
The taxi operations at Logan Airport are coordinated by Massport. Although a reduced number of taxis are now allowed to be waiting in front of the terminals at any one time, passengers will still easily find a taxi for their journey into Boston. In general, no reservation is required, however, passengers on early morning flights may like to call ahead. Passengers with disabilities who require special vehicles may also like to make an advanced reservation, however, a suitable vehicle can usually be found when required. Massport dispatchers are available outside the lower level of each terminal to assist passengers to find an accessible taxi. Since that only a few taxi are allowed in front of the terminal, there is a large waiting area for taxis nearby the South Cargo complex. Here taxis will wait until they are called to come to the terminal building.
Before passengers arrive at the airport they will need to decide which form of ground transport will be most ideal for their needs. There are several public buses available, as well as private shuttles, and trains are also convenient. However, many people prefer to travel more privately, and then a taxi is best. A taxi will also take you directly to the doorstep of your residence, hotel or place of business, whereas a bus may only stop quite far from where you need to be. Taxis are available at all hours, whereas a bus will operate on set times, which may not be convenient for your travel itinerary. Keep in mind, however, that taxis are usually more expensive than the public transport services at an airport.
Taxis in the United States, and Boston, operate on metered-rates, which means that they are equipped with a meter that will record the distance of the journey. The fare for the ride is then calculated accordingly, plus any additional charges. For trips to Logan Airport, an extra fee of $2.75 is charged, and there may be fees for airport pick-up as well ($2.25). In some cases, a small amount could be charged for luggage loaded and for more than four passengers in the vehicle, and the metered rates could be more expensive later at night until early morning and on Sundays and public holidays. The price of a taxi from Logan International Airport to the Boston-area hotels will range between $25.00 and $50.00.
Before leaving the airport in a taxi, always ensure that you understand the fees involved. You may consult with your driver if explanations are required, or one of the airport staff members may be able to provide assistance. It is always wise to find out the average fare to your destination before travelling.
Passengers who require a more elegant form of transport to or from the airport can hire a limousine. At each terminal, there are various points of pick-up for limousine customers. At Terminal A, the limousine will collect passengers on the arrival level, outside of the baggage claim area and from a small car park across the road, and at Terminal E, there are similar arrangements. Limousines are found on the departures level of Terminal B, at the outermost curb area, and at Terminal C, they are also available from the departure level (second and third islands from the building). Limousines may require an advanced reservation, and their prices are determined by destination, rather than by miles travelled.
Nearby Logan International Airport, water taxis are also available. One of the free shuttle buses (number 66) travels from the airport to the Logan Dock, from where water taxis can be taken to various locations in Boston. There are three services available – the Harbor Express Quincy/Hull service (http://www.bostonbestcruises.com), the City Water Taxi Logan service (http://www.citywatertaxi.com) and the Rowes Wharf Water Transport Exclusive service (http://www.roweswharfwatertransport.com).
More information regarding the Logan International Airport taxis is available from the airport at 1-800-23-LOGAN (56426).

Traveling is a leading worldwide business, but in 2017 it brought unprecedented bitterness and retaliation towards tourists. A developing worldwide backlash against tourism expanded by tropical rain forests to urban areas such as Rio de Janeiro and Venice. My research and that of many other scholars spotlights an integral truth.
More tourism isn't necessarily better. Increasing the amount of traffic has generated gains for traveling businesses especially the cruise ship business but it's not consistently benefited local communities and surroundings in which tourism happens. Luckily, once individuals know of the often unexpected ways that their excursions affect local people and areas, it will become simple to make sure that their journey has more favorable impacts for the destinations they visit.
Produced in the availability of mass air travel, contemporary global tourism was hailed as holiday making in areas offering comparative benefits of sand, https://www.inijurupoker.com/tips/ sea and sun. There's a propensity to assume that tourism is great for everybody involved. Now the big bang of tourism compels over 1.2 billion vacationers across international borders every year, generates 9% of global GDP and supplies you one out of every some jobs in the world. But many popular areas are being loved to death.
The Movement Of Thousands Of People
Unabated tourism growth has become a main driver of environmental and social disturbance. Tourism research, that came of age as a scholarly area in the 1970, supplies much documentation of many negative social impacts of tourism and also consequent resentment that local inhabitants direct towards people.
Ancient tourism scholars developed an to quantify this annoyance with tourists among neighborhood residents. Afterwards, scholars identified phases by which tourist destinations burst. Antagonism toward tourists normally grows in older, intensely visited destinations. So it isn't surprising that these protests have escalated into frequency and scale as tourism has increased.
In Barcelona, by way of instance, growing bitterness of local gentrification, raised property and leasing rates, and erosion of neighborhood social networks has led some residents to phone tourism the city's largest difficulty and tag vacationers as terrorists.
Residents frequently become frustrated when the benefits of tourism aren't sensed everywhere. Even though it can create foreign exchange, employment and income, there's absolutely no assurance that multinational hotel chains will devote these gains equitably among nearby communities. On the contrary, when folks remain at big hotels or on cruise ships they create the majority of their purchases, leaving local communities small chance to gain from tourist spending.
These kinds of tourism expand political and economic differences between haves and have not at nearby destinations. In recent decades, most neighborhood inhabitants in destination communities have also found themselves negotiating fresh cultural borders, category dynamics, service sector characters and lifestyle transformations.
As an instance, statistics show that tourism action corresponds to greater alcohol, sex and drug abuse as neighborhood residents adopt the behaviors of tourists, frequently resulting in concurrent upticks in crime, addiction and prostitution. All inclusive hotels may also privatize access to coastal, marine, forest and agricultural sources. When overseas investment pushes up local property worth and living costs to global criteria, it might set ownership out of reach for neighborhood residents.
In such scenarios, even individuals who rely on tourism may often question its integrity, whether they're rural inhabitants working in a recently booming resort business or urban dwellers being priced out of their flats by the sharing market. No kind of tourism is much more in love with all the amounts than cruises.
While all kinds of tourism have grown in recent years, the increase in cruise journey is spectacular. These ships themselves will be the destinations. As they rebound from port to port, they're not beholden to any specific community and provide just the shallow levels of involvement with local people and areas.
Their business model highlights packing the best amount of travelers to the best variety of locations in the briefest quantity of time. Research to the business's impact has proven that few kinds of tourism tend less to enhance the social, ecological or financial well being of those areas where they happen than cruises.
These excursions may provide passengers a pleasing experience, but they miss the ship pun intended with respect to encouraging local communities and surroundings. What exactly does this mean to the regular traveler. Listed below are a couple of of these hints, which study on tourism affirms. First, as Stephen Colbert has quipped, there is nothing American vacationers like over what they can receive in your home.
All tourists must make every attempt to respect their hosts and honor neighborhood problems. This means being ready to accommodate local traditions and customs, instead of anticipating local states to accommodate to travelers. Secondly, tourism is a market based action and functions best when customers reward better actors.
From the information era, there's very little explanation for travellers being uninformed about where their holiday money goes and that it enriches. Informed travelers are also better able to differentiate between multinational companies and local entrepreneurs whose companies provide direct societal, ecological and financial benefits for residents.
Such companies are in love with the destination, not only the figures and are therefore worthy of marketplace benefit. In the long term, the target shouldn't be only to minimize the effect of travel. Being a responsible traveler signifies making sure net favorable consequences for local individuals and surroundings. With the quantity of information available at our fingertips, there's never been more chance to achieve that.

Join us in congratulating Ian DeMeritt on his five-year Fingerpaint anniversary! Ian, head of the medical team in our Saratoga Springs office, joined Fingerpaint as an accomplished virologist with an expertise in infectious disease. Ian's skill set in scientific and market research, medical writing, medical strategy, and data analysis, along with his PhD in microbiology and immunology, is a positive diagnosis for the agency and our clients.
Read on to learn more about Ian, his time with Fingerpaint, and his advice to someone entering the industry.
What do you remember about your first day at Fingerpaint?
I remember walking in the door and feeling a palpable sense of energy and hearing people laughing. It made me realize that Fingerpainters actually like where they work, enjoy their coworkers, and that it really is a "people first" place to work. There was also a pig running around the office.
Of course, on my second day of work, I was on a plane to the west coast for a new business pitch, so things got real pretty quickly.
What do you like most about the entire agency?
I often describe Fingerpaint as a sandbox: If you don't like the way something is done and have a better idea, try it out. If it doesn't work, at least you tried a different way of doing things. We don't have a large corporate structure that restricts the way we do things—everyone should feel empowered to speak up and influence change. I hope that our "no titles" policy encourages everyone to have a voice and reinforces that great ideas can really come from anyone.
What advice would you give yourself/someone entering the industry?
Be curious. In my experience, the people who are the most successful at Fingerpaint are those who have an innate sense of curiosity, always ask why, and take the initiative to find out the answer for themselves. One of the best pieces of advice I've ever gotten is that it is perfectly OK to say "I don't know" in response to a question; the trick is to never say "I don't know" to the same question twice. Always be learning.
Secondly, be your own advocate. No one is going to be looking over your shoulder telling you to take vacation or to be home for dinner with your family. Sure, there are times when it's unavoidable to work late or on weekends, but it's important to recognize when you don't need to be in the office and to make your family more of a priority than your clients. Learning to politely say no sometimes is difficult, but it's essential in this industry.
What's your take on Fingerpaint's commitment to philanthropy?
I love our focus on philanthropy. It's one of the things that drew me to Fingerpaint in the first place and one of the things that keeps me here. We live in such a great community, and it's really important to be able to give back to those in need. Not only are Fingerpainters willing to give up their time to pitch in and help others out, but I'm always amazed at how willing we are to contribute donations whenever anyone in the office is fundraising for various causes.
What are you hoping to see happen at Fingerpaint? (Keg in the kitchen, trampoline in the parking lot, 4-day work weeks, etc.—any ideas are welcome.)
I'm still holding out hope for a rooftop patio and a Tesla charger in the parking lot.
What did you do on your sabbatical?
I spent a couple of quiet, electronics-free weeks on Block Island, RI, hiked a few high peaks in the Adirondacks, and renovated a bathroom.
How often do you raid the beer keg/liquor cabinet?
Not very often at all. I'll occasionally grab a beer late on a Friday afternoon or if I'm working into the evening, but I'm much more likely to hit up the coffee machine than the liquor cabinet.
Who's your favorite office dog? Why?
Hunter. She's a combination between a real-life teddy bear and an Ewok.
For your caffeine fix: Saratoga Coffee Traders or Uncommon Grounds?
Coffee Traders. I love their mugs and you can't beat $1 Death Wish. The only downside is that once you visit, that unique Coffee Traders smell lingers on you for the next few hours.

Dillian Whyte will attempt to put a difficult few months behind him when he takes on Mariusz Wach on the Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz Jr undercard this weekend in Saudi Arabia.
The 31-year-old fights for the first time since outpointing Oscar Rivas in July, a victory that further cemented his status as the WBC's mandatory challenger for Deontay Wilder's heavyweight crown.
Confusion has reigned since then, however, following an adverse doping test. Whyte was cleared to fight Rivas by UKAD and the British Boxing Board of Control, only for the WBC to provisionally suspend the Londoner as their mandatory challenger in the aftermath while an investigation into his sample was carried out.
The situation is still not resolved, much to the frustration of Whyte and promoter Eddie Hearn.
For now, Whyte's focus will be making a statement in front of a huge boxing audience against 6ft 7in Wach.
The Polish fighter has won 35 of his 40 professional bouts, including his last two. The 37-year-old has struggled stepping up to anything resembling world level, however, having lost to Martin Banole, Artur Szpilka and Jarrell Miller in the last two years.
Wach also has defeats to Alexander Povetkin and Wladimir Klitschko on his record.
Date, UK start time and venue
Whyte vs Wach serves as the chief undercard fight as Anthony Joshua attempts to wrestle his heavyweight titles back from Andy Ruiz Jr on Saturday 7 December in an open-air venue in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia.
Ringwalks for the main event are expected to take place around 8:30pm GMT - we expect Whyte to make his way to the ring at around 7:30pm.
Will there be a live stream? How can I watch it?
Joshua vs Ruiz 2 will be live on Sky Sports Box Office.
UK customers can purchase the fight for £19.95 (€24.95 for those in the Republic of Ireland) up until midnight on Friday July 19.
Those prices still apply to self-service bookings (remote control and online) made after that time, but telephone bookings are set at £24.95 (€29.95 ROI). Sky note that "an additional £2 booking fee if via an agent still applies".
Betting tips via Betfair Exchange | UK users only | Subject to change
- Whyte to win: 1/18
- Wach to win: 18/1
- Draw: 35/1
On the biggest night of heavyweight boxing of the year, Whyte will be determined to put on a show. KO win for the Londoner in the early-to-mid rounds.
Rest of card
- Alexander Povetkin vs Michael Hunter
- Filip Hrgovic vs Eric Molina
- Mahammadrasul Majidov vs Tom Little
- Diego Pacheco vs Selemani Saidi
- Hopey Price vs Swedi Mohamed
- Majid Al Naqbi vs Ilia Beruashvili
- Zuhayr Al Qahtani vs Omar Dusary

Security tightened in Kashmir following call for march
2 || risingbd.com
International Desk: Authorities have intensified patrols in the main city in Indian-controlled Kashmir after posters appeared calling for a public march to a United Nations office to protest New Delhi's tightened grip on the disputed region.
Police and paramilitary soldiers re-imposed restrictions on traffic Friday in areas where they had been eased, putting steel barricades back up and laying razor wire across roads, bridges and intersections.
Posters appeared Thursday across Srinagar urging Kashmiris to march to the U.N. office after Muslim Friday prayers.
The posters bore the name of the Joint Resistance Leadership comprised of three separatist leaders fighting Indian sovereignty in Kashmir.
Security forces in riot gear carrying assault rifles surrounded the U.N. office, prohibiting pedestrians from approaching the area. _Agencies

The death of the African full-back?
COMMENT By Solace Chukwu Follow on Twitter
The strategic importance of the full-back has never been higher than it is today. In this light, is it perhaps about time a state of emergency was declared on the continent?
It may be a simplistic summation, but the logical resolution of the premise above is that the development of the African game is linked to the development of its full-backs. It is worrying then that, even more so than in previous years, the continent's options in this area were quite underwhelming.
This was neatly illustrated at the World Cup in the summer.

Congratulations to the final five defenders nominated for the @Goal Africa Team of the Year 2018.— Ed Dove (@EddyDove) December 22, 2018
Which of this quintet will make the final cut?@AchrafHakimi, @WTroostEkong, @salouf5, @YoucefAttalhttps://t.co/PickTAbbVZ pic.twitter.com/oNl3KGUheE
No African side progressed beyond the group stage in Russia, and while there were a humber of factors upon which this failure was founded, it was notable that only two of the five representatives had truly impressive full-back options.
Incidentally, those two – Morocco and Senegal – produced Africa's best performances and, in the case of the Teranga Lions, were a whisker away from advancing.
It is to them that the continent can look to for solace: Achraf Hakimi has gone from highly-rated to one of the elite full-backs in Europe at Borussia Dortmund, while Noussair Mazraoui, in his first full season as a first-team player, is coming on in leaps and bounds at Ajax, and has made his way into the Atlas Lions squad under Herve Renard.
The exciting Hamza Mendyl is also in the mix, and while he has not come on at quite the expected pace, mooted interest from Arsenal in the summer goes to show his talent is well regarded.
Senegal would famously become the first team in World Cup history to miss out on progress due to their disciplinary record. However, beyond that remarkable bit of trivia, Aliou Cisse's side were quite refreshingly wing-based in their attacking.
Playing a flat 4-4-2, both full-backs – Moussa Wague (now at Barcelona B) and Youssouf Sabaly – got forward dangerously, and combined for the second goal in their pulsating 2-2 draw against Japan.
As is clear, these two nations boast excellent options, but there is little to set the pulse racing besides. Some of that is down to misfortune at club level, especially where it concerns the likes of Faouzi Ghoulam and Victor Moses.
Revealed: The second batch of defenders shortlisted for the @Goal Africa Team of the Year 2018.https://t.co/z9uyDzlJjP— Ed Dove (@EddyDove) December 20, 2018
Congrats to @MedhiBenatia, @EBIONOME pic.twitter.com/7GQ8aUohaG
On form, the former is one of the very elite in terms of standing in European football. However, surgeries and rehabilitation, first for a torn anterior cruciate ligament and then for a fractured knee, ruled him out of action all year up until November.
Moses, for his part, has fallen victim to the tactical preferences of new manager Maurizio Sarri, whose system at Chelsea does not incorporate wing-backs.
Having been so pivotal under the previous regime as to have no natural competition, he now finds himself out in the cold, with rumours pointing to a return to boyhood club Crystal Palace.
His situation is instructive, however, in the sense that it shows the degree to which tactical considerations shape what is required of footballers. Beyond the individual circumstances of some of the continent's previous leading lights, there is the fact that even the default movements and responsibilities of full-backs are evolving.
Congratulations to the first five defenders shortlisted for the 2018 @Goal Africa Team of the Year.@kkoulibaly26, @Janinevanwyk5 @UBeaubo @matsraoui https://t.co/7dVsoELaPv pic.twitter.com/hBKQc6Gx4R— Ed Dove (@EddyDove) December 20, 2018
Where once the prevalence of the 4-4-2 meant that full-backs could see the play and pick up some acceleration to go past the wide midfielder, wingers high up present a different challenge.
According to FIFA's Technical Report of the 2018 World Cup, "In general, fewer traditional overlaps are occurring due to teams' dynamic interchanging of positions."
More and more, full-backs are required, not simply to chug up and down the line, but also to come inside, to 'underlap' and play in more central areas in order to avoid being nullified by the opposing winger.
It is no coincidence that Mazraoui and Hakimi, the continent's eminent full-backs, are capable of this: the former by virtue of his rounded development at Ajax, and the latter by opening up a whole new vista of passing options playing on the 'wrong' side.
It seems then that, until and unless Africa can remain ahead of the curve, both where the newest tactical evolutions in the game is concerned and in terms of development, there will continue to be a paucity of truly top-level 'laterals'.

Congestion pricing is a great way to reduce wear-and-tear on our highways, and thus to save taxpayer dollars. But "car-trains" might prove even more beneficial. Sarah Lai Stirland reports on a talk Sebastian Thrun of Stanford and Google gave at this year's Maker Faire:
"There's a lot of opportunity to think differently about highway systems," Thrun told a packed room of about 400 people on a sunny Saturday morning at the fair.
"Think about the car as a medium of mass transit: So, what if our highway-train of the future meant you go on the highway, and there's a train of very close-driving cars with very low wind drag, fantastic capacity, is twice as efficient as possible as today, and so there is no congestion anymore?"
Drivers could program their cars to drive themselves, and in close formation on the highways, and then switch to manual when they want — for example to get off of the highway, he said.
"If you make cars drive very close together, you could further reduce energy consumption by 20 to 25 percent," he argued.
While policy wonks agonize over how to squeeze more revenue out of motorists, a cause with which I am not entirely unsympathetic, technologists are working towards solutions that will allow us to have our cake and eat it too. It does feel a bit unfair, but who are we to complain?
(I should emphasize that it's always best to prepare for the worst, but allow me a moment of glib optimism.)
According to an article by John Markoff in the New York Times, Thrun has suggested that autonomous cars could sharply reduce demand for privately-owned automobiles:
In frequent public statements, he has said robotic vehicles would increase energy efficiency while reducing road injuries and deaths. And he has called for sophisticated systems for car sharing that, he says, could cut the number of cars in the United States in half.
"What if I could take out my phone and say, 'Zipcar, come here,' " he asked an industry conference last year, "and a moment later the Zipcar came around the corner?"
This reminds me of the supposed wisdom of bailing out GM and Chrysler, but I digress.

Special Needs Trust and California ABLE Accounts for People with Disabilities
In order for a disabled person to receive disability benefits, such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid, he/she must demonstrate that he/she needs the income to live independently. Any assets, even gifts from family members, may be counted against him/her, and could reduce his/her benefits. There are two ways that family members can contribute to a disabled person without those contributions affecting their benefits- special needs trusts and California ABLE accounts.

United States District Court, D. Kansas
June 27, 2019
ELOY VELASCO BRISENO, and JANA HARRIS VELASCO, Plaintiffs,v.MARKETING AND MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC, et al., Defendants.
Murguia United States District Judge.
Banamex, S.A. moves to dismiss Counts II, IV, V, VI, VII, and
VIII of the complaint by plaintiffs Eloy Velasco Briseno and
Jana Harris Velasco, solely with respect to defendant, for
three reasons: lack of personal jurisdiction under Federal
Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(2), insufficient process under
Rule 12(b)(4), and insufficient service of process under Rule
12(b)(5). (Doc. 12.)
Factual Background
are United States citizens residing in Johnson County,
Kansas. Defendant Banamex, S.A.[1] is referenced in paragraph 17 of
the complaint as "a Mexican company that can be found
at 2029 Century Park E #42, Los Angeles, California
90067." (Doc. 1, at 6.) Defendant Banamex, S.A. is
named as one of sixteen defendants to the above-captioned
This is
a case about a timeshare scam involving multiple persons and
business entities in Mexico and the United States, multiple
wire transfers by plaintiffs, and plaintiffs' efforts to
recover their money. Nine other named defendants are relevant
to identify and distinguish each of the wire transfers in
this case from the facts involving defendant Banamex, S.A.
and the alleged conspiracy. These nine defendants, as named
in the complaint and later referenced by plaintiffs, are:
Mario Morales Ortiz Pena ("Mario"), Banco
Mercantil del Norte, S.A. ("Banco Norte"),
Banorte USA Corporation ("Banorte USA"), Banorte,
Prhometeus Consulting Group ("PRHometeus"), VHM
and Company ("VHM"), Gaberi Consultores S.C.
("Gaberi"), BBVA Bancomer, S.A.
("BBVA"), and El Banco Nacional de Mexico
("Banco Nacional").
On or
about June 2018, persons purporting to act for Marketing and
Management Solutions, LLC ("M&M") contacted
plaintiffs about potential sale of their timeshare in Mexico.
This party represented to plaintiffs that the buyer was
defendant Mario. Plaintiffs entered into an agreement (the
"Agreement") allegedly with M&M and defendant
Mario for the sale of their timeshare for $230, 250.00.
Between June and August 2018, persons claiming to be M&M
and other entities requested plaintiffs pay various fees,
taxes, insurance, costs, and miscellaneous charges to
complete the sale of plaintiffs' timeshare. Plaintiffs
paid these purported expenses across five different wire
transfers totaling $101, 547.00:
1. On June 15, 2018, $5, 325.00 to Banco Norte and/or Banorte
USA and/or Banorte with beneficiary defendant PRHometeus.
2. On June 22, 2018, $29, 932.50 to Banco Norte and/or
Banorte USA and/or Banorte with beneficiary defendant
3. On July 2, 2018, $4, 325.00 to defendant Banco Nacional
and/or defendant Banamex, S.A. with beneficiary defendant
4. On July 19, 2018, $53, 966.50 to defendant BBVA, with
beneficiary defendant Gaberi.
5. On July 23, 2018, $7, 998.00; to defendant BBVA, with
beneficiary defendant Gaberi.
date, no defendant has purchased plaintiffs' timeshare,
and no defendant has returned plaintiffs' money. Only the
third wire transfer involves defendant Banamex, S.A. All
other involvement by defendant is found in plaintiffs'
conspiracy allegations and recitation of other Counts.
Legal Standards
evaluating challenges to personal jurisdiction, the court
assumes true all well-pleaded (plausible, non-conclusory, and
non-speculative) facts alleged in plaintiff's complaint.
Dudnikov v. Chalk & Vermillion Fine Arts, Inc.,
514 F.3d 1063, 1070 (10th Cir. 2008) (citation omitted).
Factual disputes in parties' affidavits are resolved in
plaintiffs' favor. Id. (citing FDIC v.
Oaklawn Apartments, 959 F.2d 170, 174 (10th Cir. 1992)).
When personal jurisdiction is based on a conspiracy theory,
"the plaintiff must offer more than bare allegations
that a conspiracy existed, and must allege facts that would
support a prima facie showing of a conspiracy."
Melea, Ltd. v. Jawer SA, 511 F.3d 1060, 1069 (10th
Cir. 2007); see Stoldt v. City of Toronto, 678 P.2d
153, 156 (Kan. 1984) (listing the elements of civil
conspiracy in Kansas).
To the
extent that the court considers any exhibits or other records
outside the pleadings, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(d)
only converts to summary judgment those motions made pursuant
to Rule 12(b)(6). The Tenth Circuit has applied Rule 12(d) in
limited circumstances to motions under Rule 12(b)(1) when the
jurisdictional question is intertwined with the merits of the
case. Wheeler v. Hurdman, 825 F.2d 257, 259 (10th
Cir. 1987). The defenses of Rule 12(b)(2), 12(b)(4), and
12(b)(5) are generally not proper grounds for summary
judgment. 5C Charles Alan Wright et al., Fed. Prac &
Proc. Civ. § 1366 (3d ed., Apr. 2019 update); see
also Nichols v. United States 796 F.2d 361, 366 (10th
Cir. 1986) (stating in the 12(b)(1) context that "Rule
12(b) does not authorize conversion whenever matters outside
the pleadings are accepted by the court.").
12(b)(4) and 12(b)(5)
A Rule
12(b)(4) motion constitutes "an objection to the form
of process or the content of the summons, " while a
motion made under Rule 12(b)(5) "challenges the mode or
lack of delivery of a summons and complaint."
Oltremari by McDaniel v. Kan. Soc. & Rehab.
Serv., 871 F.Supp. 1331, 1349 (D. Kan. 1994) (citations
omitted). When the defendant is allegedly misnamed in the
summons or does not exist, a motion to dismiss may be
properly made under either Rule 12(b)(4) or Rule
plaintiff must validly serve the defendant with process
before the court can exercise personal jurisdiction over that
defendant. See Jenkins v. City of Topeka, 136 F.3d
1274, 1275 (10th Cir. 1998) ("Effectuation of service
is a precondition to suit . . . ."). When a defendant
challenges service of process, the plaintiff has the burden
of proving the sufficiency of service. Ammon v.
Kaplow, 468 F.Supp. 1304, 1309 (D. Kan. 1979). A signed
return of service is prima facie evidence of valid service,
but can be overcome by strong and convincing evidence that
the service or return was inaccurate. Oltremari, 871
F.Supp. at 1349 (adopting Report and Recommendation of
Rushfelt, Mag. J.). The court may consider documentary
evidence and weigh affidavits when evaluating the sufficiency
of the plaintiff's service on the defendant.
Ammon, 468 F.Supp. at 1309.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(h)(1), a domestic or
foreign corporation must be served "in a judicial
district of the United States" either (1) pursuant to
state law in the jurisdiction where the action is brought or
service is made; or (2) by delivering a copy of the summons
and complaint to an agent authorized to accept service of
process. Kansas allows service by return receipt delivery
through certified mail. Kan. Stat. Ann. § 60-303 (2010).
"Generally, when the Court finds that service is
insufficient but curable, it should quash service and give
plaintiff an opportunity to reserve defendant."
Fisher v. Lynch, 531 F.Supp.2d 1253, 1269 (D. Kan.
2008). However, where it appears unlikely that service can be
cured, the court has broad discretion to dismiss the action.
See Pell v. Azar Nut Co., 711 F.2d 949, 950 n.2
(10th Cir. 1983).

Following a pilot program, the VA has said that its Board of Veterans' Appeals plans to offer nationwide availability of virtual hearings for veterans starting next year, allowing access through personal devices including mobile phones and computers.
The program builds on the department's tele-health platform of remote access to medical personnel operated by its Veterans Health Administration through an app called VA Video Connect.
"VA strives to provide integrated solutions that leverages 21st century technology to significantly increase the number of hearings completed annually," said the department, which has been testing virtual claims hearings since the summer.
It said that during that test, it has held 155 successful virtual hearings, including some in which the individual would otherwise have been unable to participate, and that the reaction of veterans' groups and representatives has been positive.

Mail Thefts Increase Over Holiday Season
RCMP Cst. Tracy Wolbeck's tips to reduce the chance of having mail stolen
Released by Cst Tracy Wolbeck, Chwk RCMP
ver the past weekend, the Chilliwack RCMP responded to two separate incidents of theft of mail from mailboxes. This is a trend that the police often see this time of year.
"Unfortunately, this is
not uncommon for this time of the year," said Cst. Tracy Wolbeck.
"Thieves are breaking into mailboxes looking for cards or envelopes
containing money that has been sent as a Christmas gift." "It's
really sad that we need to warn people of this happening in our area
but it's a necessity."
The mailboxes where mail had been taken from had been pried open and mail taken. Theft of mail is a serious offence and anyone with information regarding these thefts is asked to contact the Chilliwack RCMP at 604 792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
