A gray, drizzly Tuesday for Wichita area
A foggy morning will make way for a drizzly afternoon in the Wichita area today, forecasters say.
Highs should reach the mid-40s and linger there, dropping only a few degrees overnight as the drizzle intensifies into rain on Wednesday morning. A few thunderstorms are even possible in the metropolitan area on Wednesday afternoon, when highs could reach 50.
But that rain is expected to change over to snow and sleet early Thursday morning in the Wichita area, forecasters say, and completely to snow later on Thursday. Anywhere from 3 to 6 inches of snow is expected in Wichita by the time the snow ends Christmas morning, with winds creating "near white-out conditions" at times, according to the National Weather Service.
A winter storm watch has been issued for Sedgwick, Kingman, Harper, Sumner and Harvey counties from Thursday morning until Friday morning. The watch states "very strong north winds of 25 to 35 mph combined with heavy snow will reduce visibilities to less than a quarter-mile at times."
Monitor forecasts and conditions closely, and go to our weather page for more information.

I'm always shocked at the quality of stuff coming out of canonwired. Not in a bad way. Just in a way of building up and accepting stereotypes only to have them tossed aside. Usually I am just over on their site listening to Doug Wilson answer questions or preach. But in the past couple of weeks they have released some music written by their pianist.
These songs are written to the Psalms of the Bible and worth checking out. They toss aside much of the melodic scale we associate with western music because David (contrary to popular opinion) was not a member of the Beatles but in fact was a Jew. Enjoy the music! :-)

19 Dec School governors: who are they and what do they do?
Guest Blog from Andrew Wilkins of the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)
In 2010 the coalition government issued new legislation making it possible for all good and outstanding schools (including, for the first time, primary schools) to exit local authority management and acquire academy status. Academies in England now number 1807 according to the BBC with many more in the pipeline for 2013. The number of free schools has also gathered pace since their introduction in 2010. Recent statistics suggest there are as many as 79 free schools in England with a further 113 set to open in 2013 and beyond. But the implications of these reforms are still little understood.
Over the last decade there has been growing discomfort in the media and among academics, policy makers and teacher trade unions with the way academies are commissioned and operated. Academies are run by unaccountable sponsors selected by the government, for example. This has raised concerns that local democratic accountability is being relaxed to attract and sustain private sector involvement in public sector organization. But what about the role of the Schools Commissioner whose job it is to broker sponsor academy arrangements? Problem solved? The purpose of the schools commissioner is also to 'extend the academies sponsorship programme' and 'raise the profile of Free Schools'. Frameworks of accountability and scrutiny surely need be exercised more dispassionately. And then there is the increasing fragmentation of the education system itself – the diminishing role of local authorities and the atomisation of schools through federations, chains and partnerships. The lack of any middle-tier arrangements at the regional or sub-regional level opens up the question: how is accountability shifting to meet the demands of an increasingly deregulated and disparate school system? Is British education sleepwalking towards a 'democratic deficit' from which there can be no return?
The implications of these changes are also significant for school governors whose roles and responsibilities have up until now lacked precise definition and specification. Under the independent authority of academies, school governors and their sub-committee groups retain huge powers to exercise responsibility in steering the strategic development and governing of schools, including ethos, standards and performance. They are, in other words, the key stakeholder collective guiding school governance and are instrumental to the success or failure of a school. They are also expected to work in accordance with the educational and managerial mandate circulated by the board of trustees – the new managers of education provision.
So how have the roles and responsibilities for school governors been affected by recent government reforms with its emphasis on high-stakes performance and greater scrutiny of school effectiveness by Ofsted? Who are school governors accountable to and what is the nature of these relationships across different types of schools, institutional forms and governing arrangements? As more school governors are nominated rather than elected, how has the skill requirements and training for school governors changed? This is what recent research funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) seeks to make sense of and is intended to offer new insights into the future role of school governors in the emerging school system.
For further information on this exciting and timely project please go to the official blog site and submit any queries and comments you may have. We look forward to hearing from you.
Andrew Wilkins is Research Fellow in the School of Education at University of Roehampton.

What is your shooting style?
We are natural light, story-driven videographers who focus on capturing authentic moments. We believe good storytellers are attentive, intentional and subtle – leaving sacred white space for you to feel, cry, dance, laugh and enjoy the precious moments you're in with the people you love the most. These are the honest moments we strive to honor and capture, so if we forget to shoot your shoes or your cake topper it's likely because we were caught documenting your mom drying your dad's tears or your grandpa taking you out to the dance floor.
On your wedding day, you should be focused on enjoying yourself and not worrying about a camera in your face. We treat your wedding day as documentary rather than a production set, and strive to blend in and capture all the "real" moments. We specialize in unobtrusive videography and don't use large equipment or artificial lighting so we don't distract from what matters most: YOU and your wedding day!
Who will be with us on our day?
While we are a husband/wife film company, we have different roles. On the wedding day, we always work in teams of two, Caitlin plus an assistant shooter. Once your wedding has been filmed, we each play a part in the editing process and every film is carefully crafted by the both of us.
How do you work with our photographer?
We work very closely with photographers, and a lot of the weddings we film are actually from referrals from our photo friends (feel free to ask yours if we've worked with them before)! We understand that their work is a huge part of capturing your day, and we make sure they have the space to direct and do their job well. Time on your wedding day is priceless, so most of what we shoot is candid and shot alongside the photographer (and we hope you'll feel like you're working with one team and not two!).
How do you make sure you know what we want?
We'd love to spend time getting to know you, hearing your story & your vision for your film! If you live in the Orange County area, we'd love to grab coffee – and if you're not, we usually like to set up a phonecall/facetime/skype – whatever you are most comfortable with!
After you book with us, we'll send over a questionnaire. This helps us get to know more about you, your aesthetic, your relationship and key details about your day.
What do you require to book?
To book your date, we require a 50% booking deposit and the remainder due two weeks before your wedding day.
We know how much wedding expenses can add up, and are more than happy to accommodate payment plans upon request!
How do you capture audio?
We record all ceremony, reception and other scheduled audio on a few pieces of equipment (lapel mics, mounted microphones on our cameras, and working with the DJ & his soundboard). This makes sure you are getting the highest quality sound possible from several different sources.
For letter readings, messages to each other in the morning, or any other planned audio events outside of the ceremony & reception, please let us know so we can make sure to give it the space in the day it deserves.
Can we choose our own music?
We believe it's our job to find the perfect marriage between your taste and our storytelling style. When we book with you, we'll ask you all about your music preferences, your favorite artists, and even if you prefer strings over ambient beats or vice versa. This gives us helpful insight as we start curating music for your film!
Because we license our music legally, this means we can be a bit limited in our options and can't always accommodate specific song/artist requests – but this also means that we are honoring the brilliant and hard-working artists who created the music for your film (by paying them!). We love searching for songs we think you'll love & will flow perfectly in your film!
Are there any pieces of the day that you don't film?
Yes. We typically do not include "posed" shots of you two or your family/bridal party, so when the photographer is taking posed/formal photos of your family, we usually use this time to capture a few in-between moments as well as get supplemental venue footage & detail footage for your film. We also do not place a huge focus on static details (i.e. shoes, rings, cake, etc. – unless specifically requested), and instead try to incorporate more movement & shots of you & your loved ones interacting with the details & each other. Lastly, we do not take any shots of food or people eating… cuz that would be weird.
When can we expect to receive our final film?
You can expect to receive your film within 10-12 weeks of your wedding day, and your teaser within 6-8 weeks.
After a typical wedding day (8 hours of shooting), we usually end up with over 100GB of footage, 500+ video clips. Between organizing your footage, syncing footage and audio, sourcing music, color correction & grading, and carefully piecing your wedding footage together to re-create your wedding day, editing can take up to 40 hours over the course of up to 3 months. We don't take shortcuts when it comes to this part of the process, and give every couple our very best! We'll send you a private, password protected Vimeo link (so we can be sure you are the first ones to see it!), and from there we will make it public so you can share it with the world. You'll be able to download your film directly from Vimeo as many times as you'd like, and we'll also send you a digital folder with your film, teasers & any other extras from your package.

UMWiki retirement set for June 30, 2016
The University's Collaboration & Web Content Services team has announced a June 30, 2016 date for the retirement of the UMWiki service.
Steve Nguyen, service director, Collaboration & Web Content services, says the wiki platform, first introduced to the University in 2005, was implemented to meet a need that other technologies could not provide at that time.
"Since then, more user-friendly alternatives have become available at no cost," Steve explained. "Retiring UMWiki supports the University's operational excellence strategy by reducing duplicative services."
New site alternatives
Google Sites is anticipated to be the most popular alternative for users because it offers a more modern and user-friendly interface and has unlimited capacity.
Like UMWiki, Google Sites can be used to create sites that are available to the general public or to just a few individuals who can create and edit content. Benefits of Google Sites include the ability to:
Create password-protected sites that are accessible to designated students, faculty and staff in your group, department or college.
Allow multiple people to contribute and review/approve content.
Customize interfaces and functionality (with the help of a developer).
Publish or consume RSS feeds.
Collect and publish comments from site visitors.
To learn more about the features of Google Sites and other alternatives, and to identify which one best fits users' needs, see the University's Website Solution Selection Guide.
Migrating information to a new site/storage location
While users can add pages to existing sites in the interim, no new UMWiki sites will be allowed from this date forward. Steve recommends that customers migrate their information to another platform.
Because new alternatives such as Google Sites are simple and user-friendly, the process of migrating information should be relatively easy. Detailed instructions to help facilitate this process can be found here.
Users who decide to migrate to another web hosting service can request a zip file of their Wiki site as a starting point.
"We're here to support UMWiki users and provide any assistance that's needed," Steve said, noting that his team is reaching out to existing UMWiki users to warn them about and provide assistance regarding this retirement process.
If you have questions about migrating UMWiki content, please contact Technology Help.

Spent the day at LAShortsFest, a festival for film shorts held in Burbank –bore the LA traffic hell. Among the claymation music videos, Bollywood martial arts films, and glorified commercials masquerading as 'art' was…Futures (and derivatives). Written and directed by Arthur Halpern, Futures… shows the audience what happens when lawyers are asked to create a power point presentation about complicated financial instruments. According to the director –presumably a lawyer, as he claimed to have shot the film in his law firm's office –the film was inspired by a desire to create 'something both mundane and inspiring.'
In the film, a group at the law firm is caught off guard when asked to produce a presentation for an important client. They, of course, fake knowledge of the subject and subsequently hire a Birkenstock-ish temp the day before to pull the analyst all-nighter. Not only does the temp finish the power-point presentation, but he leaves a tangible bit of himself at the firm when he leaves. That presence, manifested in *a surprise* inspires flashing lights, ruminations on the bathroom floor in the presence of much alcohol, a display of homosexuality, etc. Cinematography and the original score were both excellent; the only thing in need of change is the script. Futures (and derivatives) just began its festival rounds, but the director doesn't have a website, so umm, good luck with trying to catch a viewing.

Action Performance ACTN tacked on more than 12 percent after the Phoenix motorsports merchandise firm reported fourth-quarter earnings before items of $12.3 million, or 67 cents a share, a dime above the average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Financial/First Call. In last year's quarter, the company lost $28.3 million, or $1.73 per share. Revenue leapt 93 percent in the latest three months to $108.4 million from $56.3 million in the same period a year earlier. Action Performance attributed the strong performance to its efficient business model, which includes control over product margins, costs and expenses at all levels, the continued growth of NASCAR's popularity, and the success of its restructuring program. The company also said it plans to adopt FASB 142 accounting standards, which changes how it accounts for goodwill.
Allied Waste Industries AW added more than 7 percent after the company reported third-quarter adjusted net income of $24.6 million, or 13 cents per share, compared with $51.3 million, or 27 cents per share, in the third quarter a year earlier. The adjusted results exclude $11.8 million of acquisition related costs. Analysts, on average, were expecting earnings of 14 cents per share on revenue of $1.41 billion. Revenue for the third quarter was $1.41 billion vs. $1.47 billion a year ago.
American Business Financial Services ABFI climbed more than 7 percent after the Bala Cynwyd, Pa., financial services firm said its board has approved the repurchase of up to an additional 10 percent of its outstanding stock over the next 12 months.

AnnTaylor Stores ANN, +2.02% rose more than 6 percent after the company reported October same-store sales fell 11.8 percent. Total sales for the four weeks ended Nov. 3 slipped 1.8 percent to $103.3 million from $105.2 million in the same period a year earlier. For the third quarter, AnnTaylor warned that it expects earnings of 40 cents a share, 3 cents below the average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Financial/First Call. Fourth-quarter earnings are projected to come in between 25 to 30 cents a share, below current Wall Street expectations for a profit of 34 cents.

Costco Wholesale COST, +0.29% advanced more than 3 percent after the company said net sales of the four weeks ended Nov. 4 totaled $2.83 billion, an increase of 13 percent over the comparable period a year earlier. Same-store sales rose 6 percent. The retailer said tobacco price increases helped lift sales results by 1 percent.
Global Crossing GX, +0.00% surged more than 30 percent after the company agreed to manage and provide telecommunications services for Computer Sciences' CSC, -1.00% global voice and data network. The value of the 12-year contract is estimated at $700 million. In addition, the companies plan to co-market their services. Global Crossing also agreed to outsource its information technology infrastructure to Computer Sciences in a deal with an estimated worth of $400 million. Computer Sciences' stock added 2 percent.
Hot Topic HOTT tacked on more than 7 percent after the company said October same-store sales decreased 4.4 percent vs. the corresponding period a year earlier. The youth-oriented retail chain attributed the slide to reduced store traffic and sales during the week leading up to Halloween. Hot Topic now sees third-quarter earnings per share of 39 cents vs. earlier targets of 40 cents to 42 cents. If current trends continue, the retailer sees fourth-quarter earnings per share in the range of 53 cents to 55 cents. Analysts, on average, were expecting third-quarter earnings of 40 cents per share and fourth-quarter earnings of 55 cents per share.
Identix IDNX gained more than 5 percent after the Los Gatos, Calif., firm disclosed that its fingerprint biometric authentification technology has been adopted by a "large government entity."

Restoration Hardware RSTO tacked on more than 33 percent after the Corte Madera, Calif., specialty retailer reported a decrease of 8.8 percent in third-quarter same-store sales. Total sales for the three months ended Nov. 3 fell 5.4 percent to $76.6 million from $81 million in the same period a year earlier.

Looking ahead, the Lake Forest, Ill., supplier of household products such as the George Foreman grill said it expects earnings of $1.80 per share in the first half of 2002, which is consistent with the low end of the range of the outlook it disclosed on Sept. 11.

Total sales for the four weeks ended Nov. 3 dropped 5 percent to $130.3 million from $137 million in the same period a year earlier. The company attributed the slide to a difficult comparison with year-ago figures, the shift of its mid-season sales to September, the slowing economy, and the impact of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. But Talbots went ahead and reconfirmed its target for a profit of at least 57 cents a share in the third quarter, in line with Wall Street's consensus view. For the fourth quarter, the company is forecasting earnings of 52 to 54 cents a share, also in keeping with the average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Financial/First Call.

The company attributed the sales jump to its travel-related concepts, which were not included in year-ago results. As for the third quarter, the company said it expects its loss to come in narrower than its previously disclosed range of 80 to 90 cents a share. Wilsons attributed this revision to the positive impact of cost control measures and the improved sales trend.
XO Communications XOXO advanced more than 12 percent after the company reported a third-quarter loss of $734.7 million, wider than a loss of $394.2 million in the year-ago period. These results include a number of items.

Advanced Micro Devices AMD, +0.62% lost more than 5 percent after the chipmaker reiterated fourth quarter financial expectations, and told analysts at a conference in Sunnyvale, Calif. to expect a profitable year overall for 2002. Analyst surveyed by Thomson Financial/First Call had been forecasting a 2002 loss of 38 cents a share. "While we expect only very modest overall growth in the semiconductor industry next year, we believe that our new product offerings and low manufacturing costs will result in a profitable year overall for AMD in 2002," said W.J. Sanders, the company's chief executive. For the current quarter, AMD continues to expect overall revenue to be flat or grow by a "high single-digit percentage." AMD added that it expects pricing pressures in flash memory products to remain "intense" in 2002, delaying the company's return to profitability until the second quarter of 2002.
Barnes & Noble BKS, -0.64% fell more than 20 percent after the company warned that full-year earnings would fall below previous forecasts citing weaker-than-expected bookstore sales.

Becton is also mulling a restructuring of manufacturing facilities in its BD Medical Systems unit, and the divestiture of units with combined revenue of less than $200 million. The company also disclosed it has restated its results for the first three quarter of fiscal 2001 to reflect its adoption of SAB 101 accounting standards.

The company said that its results in the latest quarter were negatively impacted by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, which cause it to pre-empt scheduled programming and commercial inventory, resulting in six days of operations with limited advertising revenue and higher operating costs. Revenue rose 21 percent in the latest three months to $54.5 million from $45 million in the same period a year earlier. Broadcast cash flow swelled 36 percent in the quarter to $37.2 million from $27.4 million a year earlier.

"Our October results were disappointing and well below our internal plans," said Jerry Szczepanski, the company's chairman and CEO, in a press release. "On a more positive note, however, we were able to effectively manage inventory levels during this period of uncertainty."
Nanogen NGEN, +2.31% sank more than 11 percent, extending a drop of 16 percent in Wednesday's session after UBS Warburg lowered its rating on the shares to "hold" from "strong buy." The firm also slashed its price target on the stock to $7.50 from $10, citing a lack of applications available to encourage adoption of Nanogen's NanoChip genomics product. The stock is still well above a 52-week low of $3 set on Sept. 21.

The results in the latest quarter exclude a charge of $126.5 million related to an increase in reserves, a $10 million write-down of international assets, and $9.8 million in severance charges but include $10 million in losses from its network services group. Including these items, Mastec lost $75.2 million, or $1.57 per share. Revenue sank to $302.2 million in the latest three months from $382.3 million in the same period a year earlier.

For the third quarter, sales totaled $739 million, an improvement of 15 percent from last year, while same-store sales increased 5 percent. This performance led the company to estimate earnings for the period at 42 to 43 cents a share, in line with Wall Street expectations. For the fourth quarter, Ross maintained its outlook for a profit of 50 to 54 cents a share with same-store sales gains of 1 to 3 percent.

In the latest case focussing on employment rights in the gig economy, a cycle courier has been found to be a 'worker' by the Employment Tribunal despite contractual documents under which she was purportedly engaged as a self-employed contractor (Dewhurst v CitySprint UK Ltd).
The 'gig economy' is characterised by the prevalence of short-term contracts or freelance work as opposed to permanent jobs. From an employer's perspective, such arrangements allow for greater flexibility, reduced overheads, and the opportunity to select the best individuals for specific projects. Critics point to exploitative practices and financial insecurity for individuals. The gig economy has come to prominence recently with the Tribunal ruling in favour of Uber workers which we reported in October and other high profile issues over the hours, pay and conditions of workers in large online courier like Hermes, Deliveroo and Amazon.
Employers in this sector often seek to keep operating costs low through a business model where individuals are engaged as independent, self-employed contractors rather than 'workers' who would be entitled to a number of rights including national minimum wage, paid annual leave and whistleblowing protection.
Ms Dewhurst is a cycle courier for CitySprint. She typically works four days per week, normally from approximately 9:30am to 6:30pm. During this time she moves from job to job mainly in central London. She remains in contact with CitySprint throughout the day via mobile, phone radio and the company's electronic 'Citytrakker' device. Gaps between jobs can range from ten minutes to an hour and during this period she is on standby.
Ms Dewhurst brought a claim for two days' holiday pay in respect of holiday which she had taken but not been paid for. In order for her claim to succeed she needed to demonstrate that she was a 'worker' for the purposes of the Employment Rights Act 1996. CitySprint pointed to the contract under which she was engaged which confirmed that Ms Dewhurst was self-employed and was neither a worker nor an employee.
In signing the contract, Ms Dewhurst was required to confirm that:
But the Tribunal also looked behind the contract in order to consider the reality of the working relationship. They found that in practice there were a number of significant differences between the contract and what happened in practice. In particular they noted that Ms Dewhurst and her cycle courier colleagues are:
In light of these findings, the Tribunal held that the any concept of Ms Dewhurst operating a business on her own was a sham. They concluded that she was a worker and was therefore entitled to paid holiday as claimed.
Following the Uber decision, this is the latest example of a tribunal finding employment protections for individuals engaged in the gig economy.
Organisations which rely on similar business models should be alert to this decision and the potential for litigation of their own. As awareness of the issues increases, employers can expect individuals who are denied employment rights to challenge the self-employed label if their working arrangements are more akin to those of a worker. Although these decisions are fact specific (and Uber have appealed the finding against them), there appears to be a clear indication of the direction of travel. Such employers should consider the financial and PR impact of claims against them and should also be aware that Employment Tribunals will look behind contractual documentation if they suspect that it does not reflect the true nature of the working relationship.
The issue of employment protection for those in the gig economy looks likely to remain a central focus in employment law in the coming months. The government is currently undertaking a review of employment practices focussing on the gig economy and is currently inviting submissions for an inquiry into self-employment and the gig economy. The deadline for written submissions is 16 January 2017.
TLT will continue to update on developments in this area as they arise.

Child trafficking: Panel asks govt to send back kids
Kerala State Commission for Protection of Child Rights headed by former Chief Secretary Neela Gangadharan asked the government to make arrangements for taking children to their home in Jharkhand, Bihar and West Bengal within three weeks. The panel was of the view that the children were brought without due documents and not following due procedures under the Juvenile Justice Act and Orphanage and Other Charitable Homes Act.
It also wanted the Kerala Government to ensure that a comprehensive enquiry was conducted in consultation with the states from where the children had been brought with the intention of taking them to two orphanages in north Kerala. The state had been asked to take care of their lodging and boarding till proper arrangements were made for the home- bound journey.
The orders were issued after its chairperson and members visited Palakkad where most of the children had been lodged. It instructed authorities concerned to gather information regarding children from other states living in all orphanages in the state. A police investigation is already underway by a special team in the case and an FIR lodged following the arrest of eight persons, who accompanied 586 children at Plakkad to where they were brought in two batches by train.
The children, meant to be taken to some of the orphanages, had been kept in state-run juvenile homes of the Child Welfare Society in Palakkad, Malappuram and Thrissur. A team of officials, who came from Jharkhand on Sunday, are still in Kerala verifying the documents that children had brought with them. The issue has also caused ruptures within the ruling UDF with key partner IUML resenting the measures taken by the Home Department.
When asked about the displeasure voiced by IUML leaders, Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said he did not want to make any comment now since investigation was continuing. Meanwhile, Opposition Leader V S Achuthanandan demanded a thorough probe into the child trafficking incident which was steeped in deep mystery.

Spring Has Sprung
Spring is finally here but when exactly will it start feeling warmer? It's constantly a battle here in Seattle but I am refusing to give in. Tanks, sleeveless shirts, and t-shirts are a Spring must. Sometimes I throw on my sunglasses and pretend it's sunny. What? Don't judge me. It actually works. Give it a try! Rompers are the perfect substitution to a dress. I've always said the dresses are great for work. One and done. Rompers are the same. Pair it up with a vest and voila you get an 'A' for effort. And you totally just cut your time in the morning.
Here are my picks for items similar to what I am wearing above:

The 1st and 2nd; How very adult of me.
The 1st of March. I'm almost ashamed to say I haven't actually opened either of my Easter eggs yet. I just haven't had the space/time. I only had the Lindt one to begin with (Alison brought a Dairy Milk one round later), but if I'd started it between breakfast and lunch, I wouldn't have any room in my stomach for the meal. Even now, at six o'clock, I'm still quite full from said lunch, so I really don't fancy stretching myself. How very adult of me.
This morning, I wrote up a blog post, then got back to my jumper sleeve. Lucky for me, lunch was late, so I got to the end of the seam in time for food.
We finished about four, and since then we have been watching the Nadiya series of Bake Off on Netflix which is so pure and lovely. I do miss Mel and Sue ever so much. I've sewn up the sides of the jumper, attached the sleeves, and done the edging of the neckline. Just the hem to do now, then we'll see where we are.
The 2nd of March.
I have eaten some chocolate!
Not this morning, because for some reason, after my coffee, my stomach decided to be super painful. Therefore, I spent the whole morning with one of those microwaveable heat packs on my belly, squishing it in with my knees. I tried to start the all-brown sausage dog, but it was too sore for me to even do that.
By lunchtime, it seemed to have abated enough for me to want to eat something, so I had a slice of toast and that seemed okay.
This afternoon, I had a hairwash, then I put on the new crochet jumper which I finished last night! It looks good, and thank god I made the sleeves longer because they would have been way too short.
However, the wool is quite itchy, so I think I'll have to wear a long-sleeved thermal underneath.
Back downstairs, Christine and I watched My Neighbour Totoro (which I had forgotten has some really weird bits) and I ate one of my Lindt bunnies. Hooray!

The Fellows Program
Offering parochial formation for seminarians discerning a call to ministry
in the Anglican Way
Anglican ☩ Scholarly ☩ Practical
What is it?
The St. Mark's Fellows are seminarians who desire to pursue their theological education within the nurturing environment of the local church.
Comprised of Anglicans from a variety of jurisdictions and traditions, what holds us together is a common commitment to and curiosity about the historic distinctives & beauty of the Anglican Way.
Our objective is to grow as faithful disciples of Jesus Christ spurring each other to love and good works (Hebrews 10:24), even as we also grow in our understanding of and commitment to serving God and his Church as Anglican Christians.
Through spiritual formation and the nurturing of God-given gifts, fellows prepare for future ministry by being given opportunities to serve in parish ministry each week.
October 2017
"My Fellowship at St. Marks has introduced me to the richness of the Anglican Tradition, not only in its liturgy and orthodoxy but also in its piety. This fellowship is a place where we are mentored by clergy who have a genuine care and concern over our spiritual growth and formation. Hard theological questions can be raised and discussed with watchful pastoral oversight."
~ Aaron Cappucci / M.Div (Westminster Theological Seminary)
Our Method
The cornerstone of the Fellow's experience is a three-year apprenticeship model that includes mentoring with an experienced priest from St. Mark's within the context of the parish community.
Fellows meet regularly to share meals, and discuss texts with a special view in mind to building bridges between theological erudition, the distinctives of the Anglican tradition and the practical realities of parochial ministry.
We explore subjects that are both theoretical and practical, gaining exposure to the works and implications of great theologians and pastors both within and without the Anglican Church.
Regular seminars and workshops give exposure to experts in such fields as: Anglican plainsong chant (how to lead Matins & Evensong); Preaching Christ from the Lectionary; The Order and Logic of the Prayerbook; Fundraising; Evangelism & Church-planting; Avoiding Burnout and more.
Graduating Fellows will have had exposure to and experience in numerous aspects of the liturgical life of the parish, from an Anglican perspective that is both reformed and catholic.
Septemer 2017
"This Fellowship has provided me not only with mentoring and ministry opportunities, but also with an abiding church community and close friendships that will endure long after seminary."
~ Barton Gingrich / The Reformed Episcopal Seminary
"The Fellows program offered me holistic formation that couples ministerial responsibilities with
hands-on training from godly men."
Justin Hare / Westminster Theological Seminary
July 2017
"Without the St. Mark's Fellowship, I may never have had the opportunity to read and discuss several hidden classics of the Anglican tradition."
A Holistic Approach
Linking Theology with Worship & Parochial Ministry
The Fellows program has been designed to complement your seminary education and to help you discern God's calling on your life, whether it be to the academy, church-planting, missions work or parochial ministry.
During your time as a Fellow at St. Mark's, you will be helped to connect what you are learning in seminary to the life of the Church, linking doctrinal knowledge to piety and service.
June 2017
"My time as a Fellow at St. Mark's has helped me connect pieces of seemingly disconnected facts into a cohesive whole. This experience has given me the tools to integrate theological learning from the classroom with the calling to serve within the Church."
~ Brian Oldfield / (Westminster Theological Seminary)
There is room for you at the table!

I hate transitions. I've never been very good at them. I cried every year on the first day of school (until I started studying nutrition) because I didn't want to leave summer vacation behind. I've always loved school, but making that transition in my daily routine was (is) tough. I hated leaving for summer camp just as much as I hated coming home from summer camp. I am a creature of habit and routine. I like the comfortable and familiar. But change is a necessary and constant part of life. Growth cannot occur without change and new beginnings only happen when you step out into the unknown. So how do I deal with change? I take it slow and steady of course. I find a way to embrace the future while still lingering a little in the past.
The perfect transition from summer to fall–
Whole Wheat Pasta and Spaghetti Squash
with Roasted Heirloom Tomatoes and Chickpeas
– 4 servings of whole wheat angel hair pasta prepared according to package directions
– 1/2 spaghetti squash
– about 1/2 cup store-bought or homemade pesto (**recipe below)
– 1 cup diced heirloom tomato
– 1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
– broccoli florets
– extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar for drizzling
– salt and pepper
How To:
– Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
– Slice spaghetti squash in half longways and place one half face-down in a casserole dish. Fill casserole dish with a tiny bit of water to create steaming in the oven.
– Place squash in preheated oven for about 35 min. or until inside flesh is tender.
– Meanwhile, spread tomatoes and chickpeas on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper (or greased). Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Set aside.
– When squash is tender, remove from the oven and let rest for 20 min.
– Pop the tomatoes and chickpeas into the 400 degree oven for 20 min. After 15 min, of cooking, toss broccoli florets with tomatoes and chickpeas and cook the remaining 5 min.
– Gently scrape the flesh of the squash with a fork. It will separate into pasta-like strands. Mix the strands with the whole wheat pasta. Add veggie/bean mixture and toss with pesto.
– Enjoy the delicious combination of summery garden tomatoes and fall spaghetti squash. Mmm… maybe I don't mind transitions so much after all.
Homemade Pesto Blueprint
Pesto is a delicious, creamy sauce traditionally made from nuts, greens, cheese, olive oil, and garlic.
– 1/2 cup nuts (pine nuts, walnuts, or almonds)
– 3 cups greens (basil, spinach, arugula, romaine)
– 1/4 grated hard cheese (parmesan, romano, or nutritional yeast for a dairy-free pesto)
– 1-2 cloves of garlic
– 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
– 1/4 cup water
– salt and pepper to taste
How To:
– Pulse first four ingredients in a food processor until combined
– Continuing to pulse, slowly drizzle in olive oil and water until a saucy consistency is reached
– Add salt and pepper to taste
– Freeze any remaining pesto in ice cube trays
Not only does this meal represent a wonderful progression between seasons, it also represents one of my favorite ways to lighten up comfort foods– add more veggies! Adding veggies is an easy way to lighten up any meal, but it works especially well with pasta. A big bowl of pasta is like being wrapped in a warm, cozy blanket. But calories can add up quickly with pasta and it is a food that is notoriously over-portioned (1 portion size is 1 cup cooked). By mixing in the pasta-like spaghetti squash, you instantly cut calories. Not to mention, the squash strands soak up the sauce beautifully and impart a subtle sweetness into the dish. I am working on a whole post dedicated to healthifying comfort foods.
Happy Harvest Moon!
Thanks for reading 🙂

Where Do You See Yourself In Five Years?
This Reverb 10 prompt reminds me of a job interview: Imagine yourself five years from now. What advice would you give your current self for the year ahead? I expect to have a two or three year old child, no money, a published novel, and a noisy cat. I'd like to be living in Toronto or Austin but I probably won't be able to afford to sell this damnable house.
I suppose my advice is to practice patience now, because nothing I plan to do will be easy, fun, or quick. Hopefully it will all be rewarding.
UPDATE FROM 2015: Holy wow was I wrong. No kid, okay monetarily, novel publishing in 2017... The noisy cat is still here. We still haven't sold the damnable house. The patience paid off, though.

Social Media Maven
These days it's important for organizations to have a social media presence. That's where Dana Ebete comes in. As the social media coordinator for the Calavera Hills Elementary (CHE) PTA, Dana is able to give the school the exposure it needs. "I manage both the Facebook and Instagram accounts for the school. We post pertinent school information, reminders, and pictures of everyday life at CHE," Dana said. "We post pictures from the fun run, spirit days like crazy hair or sock day, and field trips. Sometimes it's a picture of a science experiment they are doing in class or advertising about special events happening at the school."
Calavera Hills Elementary PTA
Name of Group: Calavera Hills Elementary PTA
Group's Purpose/Mission: CHE PTA gives money to support each student, every year, for programs and materials.
Group Contact Information: Shauna Hurst – firstname.lastname@example.com
This type of volunteering is perfect for Dana's schedule, as she works full-time. "The traditional ways of volunteering in a classroom during the day aren't an option for me," she shared. "Parents, teachers and even Principal Fuentes can email or text me with pictures, flyers, and information they need posted. It has helped create a connection to the school for me and my family." Dana hopes that other parents will find connections with their own kids through her work. "As a parent, when you try to ask your child 'what did you do today?' we more than likely will get the typical response of 'nothing.' It's nice to see occasional pictures from what they are doing and use that as a jumping-off point for conversations," she said.
Dana has lived in Calavera Hills for the past 10 years. "I enjoy living here because it is a large community, but still has some small town characteristics. The people are so friendly and you often see familiar faces on the soccer fields, grocery store, or the park," she related. She has been married to her husband, Donn, for 10 years as well. Together they are parents to a son, Nixon, and a daughter, Naomi. Besides working full-time and volunteering for the PTA, Dana keeps busy with the children's activities of soccer, basketball, flag football, and dance. She can often be found outdoors and exploring different places in the area.
