Nate Gutierrez, the chef and owner of Nate's Taco Truck and Nate's Taco Truck Stop in Richmond, Va., could not stop snacking on the skin left over from his roast chickens. So, he decided to make chicken skin crisp on his flattop and offer it in a taco. The chicken-skin tacos sell out whenever they are on the menu. This recipe is adapted from his work: chicken breasts are cooked, the skin crisped and the meat shredded, and the whole thing stuffed into a tortilla. Top at will.

Brad Parscale, who was recently appointed as campaign manager for Donald Trump's 2020 reelection bid, has warned Google, Facebook, and Twitter to maintain a "level playing field," following a month of high-profile revelations of bias at big tech.
Brad Parscale's comment came on the same day as the results of primaries for the Texas senatorial race in November were released. Google and Facebook both have the ability to significantly influence elections. Facebook has previously boosted voter registration and turnout by significant margins, while research on search engine manipulation shows that services like Google Search have the potential to change the preferences of undecided voters by 20 percent or more.
Brad Parscale, current campaign manager for the president's 2020 re-election bid, previously managed Trump's digital campaign in 2016. In public interviews, Parscale has argued that social media, not traditional media, was the key to Trump's victory in 2016, and identified Facebook as particularly critical to the president's success. His selection suggests that the digital campaigning will be given even greater emphasis in 2020.

Teaching the Science of Learning to Students – Part 1, Why We Started the Learning Scientists Project
By Megan Sumeracki
This is a two-part blog series. In Part 1, I tell some personal stories about why we started the Learning Scientists Project, and highlight some important issues related to evidence for the six strategies producing effective learning and evidence that students can transfer their use of these strategies. In Part 2, I will share some of the collaborative work I have been doing to create first-year seminar materials to help teach the science of learning to first-year college students, what I have learned anecdotally, and the many questions we still have.
When Yana and I started the Learning Scientists, it was because we wanted to make the cognitive psychology research on learning more accessible to increase its ability to have real positive impacts for students around the world. Essentially, we have aimed to break out of the typical walls of academic research and talk about research and education with many relevant parties, and not just our fellow researchers (though of course those conversations are extremely useful, too). For me, this project started 1.5 years after finishing my PhD (2014), and while it has been incredibly time consuming it has also felt like a breath of fresh air. It fits so well with the reasons I became a cognitive psychologist in the first place.
How I Started Applying Cognition to Education
Personally, I got into cognitive research as an undergraduate student because I was interested in education. There were two experiences that shaped my career while in college. 1) I gained research experience in a variety of labs both at Purdue University where I went to school and at other Colleges through various programs (e.g., NSF REU). 2) I became a substitute teacher. Once I finished the first half of my BA I was eligible, in the state of Indiana, to become a substitute teacher.
By the beginning of my junior year in college I was getting ready to apply for the research focused honors program at Purdue University, and had started subbing K-12 on days when I didn't have classes -- I went to great lengths to block them off so that I would have 2 full-days off at a time. I loved being in the classroom and working with students, and I loved issues related to education. I applied to conduct my honors thesis in Jeff Karpicke's Learning Lab, where I started conducting my own applied research on learning. I fell in love with the research, and continued to pursue training in cognitive psychology and applications to education. I had found my passion, and wanted to have a role in changing education. I wasn't sure yet how to do this, but at that point I thought I could go to graduate school and then get a job in policy and make some real changes. (Many college students have lofty ideas about their careers, right?)
I graduated from Purdue University. with my BA in 2009 and headed off to graduate school at Washington University in St. Louis and then back at Purdue.
I trained in cognitive research and finished my PhD in 2014. While I was in graduate school, I did get involved in service with the American Psychological Association and learned a lot about policy change, networking, and overarching service to the field. I then went on the academic job market, like most PhD students in my field do. I sought tenure-track jobs that would allow me to focus both on research and on teaching, both in my lab working closely with student researchers and in the college classroom. I was on a tenure line for one year at Utah State University Eastern in Price, Utah where I met my now husband Sam. I then took my current job at Rhode Island College as an Assistant Professor.
Fast forward now to January 2016, when the Learning Scientists was born. I was starting my second semester at Rhode Island College. I was enjoying my treck on the tenure track, but I was starting to wonder if my application efforts were as successful as I thought they might be when I was in college. I knew I had to publish journal articles, an essential component of our jobs as academics. However, they are primarily only read by other researchers. Further, I didn't even have access to all of the journal articles that I would find relevant to my work through our Library and obtaining them any other way is extremely expensive. They're also dense; there was a reason I spent nearly a decade in college and graduate school learning how to conduct research and understand the massive body of literature in my field. Serendipitously, Yana was grappling with similar issues, and we started utilizing social media together to communicate about research and education.
Transfer of the Six Strategies for Effective Learning
The reason we focus on the 6 strategies for effective learning is that a number of researchers combed the cognitive psychology literature applied to education and identified strategies that had the most evidence to support their effectiveness, and these 6 strategies appear to have the most evidence. We can say with a fair amount of certainty that the 6 strategies improve learning. Of course, there are always situations where the strategies will be more or less effective, and our goal is to provide flexible guiding principles for teachers and students. Just because we have a fair amount of evidence suggesting these strategies work does not mean that the research on these strategies can stop. We are always learning new ways to fine tune the strategies and test how well they work in various situations with various students.
These strategies are not new; for example, the first paper we can find on retrieval practice was published in 1909 and Ebbinghaus studied spacing in the late 1800s. And yet, most of them have not been mainstream in education. Yana and I were very intruiged by a National Council on Teacher Quality (NCTQ) examining teacher training textbooks for instruction on these 6 strategies. What they found was that very few textbooks covered any of these strategies. If teachers are not learning about these strategies during college training, then it is no wonder they are not making it into the world of education. So, we sought to create materials to help explain how students and teachers can use the strategies to improve learning. One of our main goals is to help students learn how to use these strategies effectively to guide independent learning.
The strategies themselves have a great deal of scientific evidence, and if we can somehow motivate students to use them effectively and seek help when appropriate then student learning should improve. However, the best way to actually teach the strategies to the students and motivate them to use them effectively is still an open question. Essentially, we are trying to get students to learn about how to effectively use the strategies on their own and then transfer those skills to their own independent learning, thus increasing overall learning.
There is very little research on transferring learning strategies like this, and we honestly do not yet have a procedure for teaching the learning strategies to students that we know produces this transfer. What we learn tends to be very contextualized, and achieving transfer of knowledge or skills is extremely difficult (for example, see part 1 and part 2 of a blog series about the difficulty of transfer). Yet understanding this question is important if we wish to make real impacts on student learning. But, we need data!! Thus for the last couple of years, one of the big focuses of my research program has been aimed at helping students understand effective learning strategies and trying to help them utilize them on their own.
Next week, in Part 2, I will discuss some of the collaborative work I have been doing to create first-year seminar materials to help teach the science of learning to first-year college students both at Rhode Island College where I teach and at other institutions. I will also share what I have learned anecdotally, and the many questions we still have.

SORRY: Best Buy Issues Apology for Trying to Sell $42 Cases of Water to Houston Flood Victims
Apology accepted?
Many think not.
There are very mixed feelings going around after Best Buy, the electronics retail giant, was caught red-handed selling cases of water for upwards of 42 dollars apiece.
Taking advantage of people in times of need? How low can you go?
After outrage nationwide ensued as a result of the images of the water cases spreading virally online, the Best Buy leadership has issued a public apology.
Do you think that the apology is sincere?
According to The Hill:
Best Buy is apologizing after a Houston store was reported to be selling cases of water for $42 after Hurricane Harvey hit the region.
A tweet showing the Best Buy prices went viral earlier Tuesday.
"This was a big mistake on the part of a few employees at one store on Friday," a Best Buy spokesman said in a statement to The Hill. "As a company we are focused on helping, not hurting affected people. We're sorry and it won't happen again."
"Not as an excuse but as an explanation, we don't typically sell cases of water. The mistake was made when employees priced a case of water using the single-bottle price for each bottle in the case," the statement continued.
The apology comes amid widespread reports of price gouging in the wake of the storm.
A spokeswoman for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) told The Hill earlier Tuesday that the office had received at least 600 complaints of price gouging and fraud after Harvey hit the region.
"As of our last tally this morning, we have 600 complaints pertaining to Hurricane Harvey (including scams, fraud, price gouging and charities), and that number is still rising," spokeswoman Kayleigh Lovvorn wrote in an email. "The majority of these complaints involve price gouging for bottled water, fuel, groceries and shelter."
Sounds to me like the company is trying to save themselves from a publicity nightmare at the scale of Pastor Joel Osteen's recent disaster.
In case you missed it, Osteen was accused by many on the internet of not opening his megachurch's doors to those in need in Lakewood, an area heavily affected by Hurricane Harvey.
Best Buy should have showcased better leadership to prevent this catastrophe by managing the situation in their Houston stores more closely. They could have issued and distributed a policy to local managers in the area and set expectations clearly. It seems this is too little too late.
That said, they did do the right thing in the end by swiftly and publicly apologizing for the 'big mistake.'
Where do you stand on this issue? Let us know, and share, share, share!

Do you have that one person in your family. You know the one who isn't related by blood, you don't often see, but when you do, you feel like kindred spirits? YES! That one....
This is what Briana is to me. This amazing mama walked into my life in 2012 and I have never looked back. When we are able to spend some time together it's as if we haven't really left each other. I think it's because we have such cute kids that love each other! Yep - cousins for life.
While taking a much needed family vacation I planned to also have this family session. She has never had the luxury of having a boutique service at her tips and it was my honor to shower her with all the amazing perks of hiring a professional photographer.
We were able to go through and style each outfit to compliment the other - of course focusing on Mama's outfit first (a must for any session like this!!).
During the stay I scouted a few locations so that we would have options for the desired look.
Less than an hour later we had the entire family session done!!!
Here are some of the highlights~
So you wonder what the trick is to getting these images just so. I LOVE connecting with my clients. You receive a free consultation AND a design session. This gives me an opportunity to style your session and plan it to be something you will LOVE. This is just ONE of the many things that sets me and my business apart from others.

The Museum Center will be opening a new exhibit in the permanent collection featuring Tom Rowland, Mayor Emeritus of Cleveland, TN. Rowland was the mayor from 1991-2018, and a reconstruction of his office will be installed in the museum.
The museum is working with all local elementary and secondary schools to offer a new curriculum this fall, "Civics and Local Government". This teacher approved program will be a supplement to the required curriculum and will enhance students exposure to our local and state governments.
City Donates To The Tom Rowland Exhibit
On February 25, the Cleveland City Council unanimously approved a one-time donation of $5,000 to the Museum Center at 5ive Points to fund the Mayor Emeritus Tom Rowland Exhibit.
Officials said, "The donation represents a commitment by the City to support a fund-raising campaign by the Museum Trustees to create an exhibit that will preserve the Emeritus Mayor's legacy for future generations with the objective of documenting how his leadership has shaped Cleveland's contemporary history.
"The campaign's first objective will be to create a working office for Mr. Rowland at the Museum which will permit him to continue serving as an ambassador for the City, and also display for public viewing the memorabilia from his tenure as Cleveland's longest serving mayor.
"The trustees also intend to solicit contributions to fund the production of a state-of-the-art interactive exhibit, which will feature a television-ready documentary collecting prior as well as new interviews with Tom Rowland and other civic leaders showcasing his and the community's most important accomplishments and how those successes have transformed Cleveland.
"As a lasting tribute to the former Mayor's service to Cleveland and the State of Tennessee, the Trustees will solicit contributions to create and provide civic educational programs for middle school students in our region to learn about the fundamental that shape local government."
"We look forward working with City leaders, patrons of the Museum and friends of Tom Rowland all over the state of Tennessee to accomplish these goals and objectives," said Joe Mason, president of the Museum Center at 5ive Points. "Patrons of the Museum and friends of Tom Rowland can make contributions to support these objectives by calling the executive director, Janice Neyman, or by visiting www.museumcenter.org/donate."
"Mayor Emeritus Rowland devotedly served our community for over 27 years and was a tremendous advocate of Cleveland, which helped ensure the city's continued success and accomplishments during his tenure," said Mayor Kevin Brooks. "I believe this token of appreciation and support will preserve his legacy and demonstrate how his commitment to our community played a significant role in our past, as well as positioned our city for the future."
The Cleveland City Council unanimously voted to declare Mayor Emeritus Rowland's desk, credenza, chair, computer and other memorabilia as surplus property at a City Council meeting in August 2018.

Mexico earthquake: At least one adult feared trapped in rubble of school
Rescuers in Mexico City stepped up their efforts Thursday to find any more survivors in the rubble of a school, two days after a magnitude-7.1 earthquake killed at least 273 people and injured more than 2,000 others.
For more than a day, rescuers at the Enrique Rebsamen school on the capital's south side said they were trying to free a 12-year-old girl. However, officials announced Thursday afternoon there were no children trapped -- but an adult, possibly a school worker, may still be in the rubble alive.
Twenty-one children and five adults are now confirmed to have died at the school.
The debris removed from the school changed as crews worked their way deeper, from huge chunks of brick and concrete to pieces of wood that looked like remnants of desks and paneling to a load that contained a half dozen sparkly hula-hoops.
Rescuers carried in lengths of wide steel pipe big enough for someone to crawl through, apparently trying to create a tunnel into the collapsed slabs of the three-story school building. But a heavy rain fell during the night, and the tottering pile of rubble had to be shored up with hundreds of wooden beams.
Rescuers removed dirt and debris bucketful by bucketful and passed a scanner over the rubble of the school every hour or so to search for heat signatures that could indicate trapped survivors. Shortly before dawn Thursday the pile of debris shuddered ominously, prompting those working atop it to evacuate.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said the number of confirmed dead in the capital has risen from 115 to 137, bringing the overall toll from the quake to 273. Mexico City Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera said two women and a man had been pulled alive from a collapsed office building in the city's center Wednesday night, almost 36 hours after the quake.
Still, frustration was growing as the rescue effort stretched into Day 3.
Outside a collapsed seven-story office building in the trendy Roma Norte district, a list of those rescued was strung between two trees. Relatives of the missing compared it against their own list of those who were in the building when the quake struck -- more than two dozen names -- kept in a spiral notebook.
Patricia Fernandez's 27-year-old nephew, Ivan Colin Fernandez, worked as an accountant in the seven-story building, which pancaked to the ground, taking part of the building next door with it.
She said the last time the family got an update was late yesterday: that about 14 people were believed to be alive inside, and only three had gotten out.
"They should keep us informed," Fernandez said as her sister, the man's mother, wept into Fernandez's fleece sweater. "Because I think what kills us most is the desperation of not knowing anything."
Referring to rumors that authorities intend to bring in heavy machinery that could risk bringing buildings down on anyone still alive inside, Fernandez said: "That seems unjust to us because there are still people alive inside and that's not OK."
She added, "I think they should wait until they take the last one out."
Seeking to dispel the rumors, National Civil Protection chief Luis Felipe Puente tweeted Thursday that heavy machinery "is NOT being used" in search-and-rescue efforts.
President Enrique Pena Nieto declared three days of mourning as soldiers, police, firefighters and everyday citizens dug through the rubble, at times with their hands, gaining an inch at a time.
"There are still people groaning. There are three more floors to remove rubble from. And you still hear people in there," said Evodio Dario Marcelino, a volunteer who was working with dozens of others at a collapsed apartment building.
A man was pulled alive from a partly collapsed apartment building in northern Mexico City more than 24 hours after the Tuesday quake and taken away in a stretcher, apparently conscious.
At least 52 people had been rescued alive since the quake, the city's Social Development Department said, adding in a tweet: "We won't stop." It was a race against time, Pena Nieto warned in a tweet of his own saying that "every minute counts to save lives."
People have rallied to help their neighbors in a huge volunteer effort that includes people from all walks of life in Mexico City, where social classes seldom mix. Doctors, dentists and lawyers stood alongside construction workers and street sweepers, handing buckets of debris or chunks of concrete hand-to-hand down the line.
At a collapsed factory building closer to the city's center, giant cranes lifted huge slabs of concrete from the towering pile of rubble, like peeling layers from an onion. Workers with hand tools would quickly move in to look for signs of survivors and begin attacking the next layer.
In addition to those killed in Mexico City, the federal civil defense agency said 69 died in Morelos state just south of the capital and 43 in Puebla state to the southeast, where the quake was centered. The rest of the deaths were in Mexico State, which borders Mexico City on three sides, Guerrero and Oaxaca states.

PROFESSOR AND THE MADMAN'S LINEUP FOR THIS ONE NIGHT ONLY COMPRISES CO-FRONTMEN ALFIE AGNEW (Adolescents, D.I.) AND SEAN ELLIOTT (D.I., Mind Over Four) BACKED BY THE LEGENDARY RHYTHM SECTION OF RAT SCABIES (The Damned, The Mutants) AND PAUL GRAY (The Damned, Eddie & the Hot Rods, UFO)
The 100 Club concert marks the first time Scabies and Gray have shared
a stage since playing together in the Damned in the mid-1990s.
The group — which features Alfie Agnew (Adolescents, D.I.), Sean Elliott (D.I., Mind Over Four), Rat Scabies (The Damned, The Mutants) and Paul Gray (The Damned, Eddie & the Hot Rods, UFO) — will take the stage at the 100 Club in London on August 10, 2018. Tickets are on sale now – HERE.
Professor and the Madman released its third album, Disintegrate Me, to international acclaim on February 23. Choosing P&TM as one of its "Bands to Watch in 2018," Classic Rock Magazine declared "Disintegrate Me is an infectious cocktail of power-pop/rock, '60s British Invasion and melodic psychedelia. It's rich, quality stuff." The album is available for download on iTunes and Amazon while the CD and clear vinyl LP can be ordered HERE.
Play: Professor and the Madman – Space Walrus
The 100 Club show will be a rare — if not only— chance to see the recording lineup of Professor and the Madman together on the same stage. Due to the distance between Agnew and Elliott in Southern California, and Scabies and Gray in the UK, logistics make it difficult for the quartet to convene for live performances. No additional performances by this lineup are being considered at this time.
"It's a dream come true to be playing the 100 Club," says Agnew. "Growing up in Southern California, my brothers and I would try to imagine having attended those ground zero punk gigs at the club in 1976. Sex Pistols, the Clash, the Damned, Buzzcocks, plus the infamous live debut of Siouxsie and the Banshees featuring Sid Vicious on Drums." The "brothers" Agnew references are Rikk and Frank, a pair of musicians who helped form the bedrock of the original Los Angeles punk scene as members of Social Distortion, Adolescents, Christian Death, 45 Grave, and others.
Elliott is excited about the 100 Club concert for another reason: "The Damned are, without a doubt, the #1 most influential band for Alfie and me. To actually share the stage with the rhythm section from The Black Album is going to be amazing."
The origins of Professor and the Madman reach back to the early 1990s, when both Agnew and Elliott were guitarists in the Orange County punk band, D.I. Playing together, the pair hit if off immediately, both musically and personality-wise. However, Agnew left music for well over a decade to pursue an academic career (he is, actually, a professor) and didn't reunite with Elliott again until 2014 when the pair formed Professor and the Madman. An unexpected third member arrived as a Christmas gift in 2015. Agnew and Elliott were playing a holiday-themed gig with a local Los Angeles punk covers band, introducing the Damned's "Smash It Up" as an encore, when Scabies was coaxed on stage to join them. Scabies happened to be in town and some friends had brought him to the show. The trio were exhilarated by the performance and Scabies offered to drum on all the tracks for Professor and the Madman's first pair of digitally-released indie albums, Elixir I: Good Evening, Sir! (July 2016) and Elixir II: Election (November 2016). In related news, Scabies is set to release his debut solo album, P.H.D. (Prison, Hospital, Debt), via Cleopatra Records on May 18.
Play: Professor and the Madman – Machines
Elliott reached out to Gray via Facebook in 2016, and he was soon on board to provide basslines for Disintegrate Me. Earlier this year, Gray (who recently reunited with the Damned after two decades) told KnowYourBassPlayer.com that "Alfie and Sean are continuing the legacy in a way that immediately spoke to me. It was absolutely honest music, the most exciting I'd heard in eons, and chock full of melodies. I knew what I could add straight away. They may or may not agree with me but my first thoughts were Damned meets vintage Cheap Trick via The Kinks — that's a pretty heady mixture!"

The One Piece You Can't Live Without
With Summer temps fading away and crisp Fall days ahead, it's time to stock up on the classic essentials that will take from Fall through Winter & beyond. This cashmere crewneck sweater from Uniqlo is a piece I can not live without. (If you follow me on Insta – you are all well aware of my crazy obsession with Uniqlo lol) Perfectly cozy for cool fall nights and chilly winter days, yet breathable and light for when the sun peaks, this bad boy will not let you down. One of my favorite ways to wear this wardrobe staple is paired back with other classics (think stretch selvedge jeans, a sharp striped shirt, and a chic pair of slippers). For something more sporty, try pairing this baby with a great pair of black joggers and a killer white sneaker. As much as us New Yorkers love a black moment (trust me you'll want this in black too), it's available in a rainbow of other colors, linked here for you guys.

In an age when everything is new and improved, tradition seems to have taken a backseat. It is still evoked nostalgically; to create an illusion of stability in an otherwise chaotic world. Reference is made to the traditional turkey dinner or to that semi-mythical age when things were simpler and children were better behaved. Tradition in this sense may generate some good feelings but is not something to give direction to our lives.
In the business world and sometimes in churches, "tradition" is commonly used to dismiss something as backward-looking and stodgy. This rejection of tradition grows directly out of an eagerness to distance ourselves from our own pasta central characteristic of western culture since the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century.
Whether we like the feelings associated with tradition in the sense of the turkey dinner, or regard it as something which blinds us to current needs, it is perhaps time we reassessed the role of tradition in our society. Tradition has the potential to play a more powerful role by providing a clear identity for us as individuals and communities of faith. If tradition is to serve such a purpose, we must understand it as a living part of us, rather than something dead and past and commemorated on plaques.
An important part of my teaching role at Canadian Bible College is to teach a course called Alliance History and Thought. This course has developed a rather unenviable reputation over the years. Believe it or not, it commonly has been referred to by students (in hushed voices and with furtive, over-the-shoulder glances to ensure the offending professor is out of earshot) as "Alliance Misery and Rot." This was rather shocking to a new teacher and enough to make one nostalgic for whenever it was that students were better behaved.
Reflecting on this, it seemed to be a significant thing that the least popular course at an Alliance Bible college was the one course on what it meant to be Alliance. After recovering from the blow to my self-esteem, the clear message was that students didn't like this course because they felt it had nothing to do with who they were or who they were hoping to become Theology students want to know who God is and what God is doing in the world. Biblical studies at the Bible college are popular. Students see the relevance of learning how to read and interpret Scripture well. Sociology, psychology and literature can help students understand themselves and their world more clearly. But what is the point of denominational history? After all, this "stuff" happened long ago and only serves to remind us that we are pretty small fish in the big pond of church history. Would it not make more sense to spend time on things that really matter?
In asking these sorts of questions, my students were clearly in a broad stream of thinking flowing out of the Enlightenment which views particular traditions, like denominational histories, as irrelevant. Worse still, such traditions are held to actually distort truth and thus must be abandoned. The Enlightenment approach is perhaps best typified by the seventeenth century French thinker René Descartes. Descartes regarded knowledge based on any tradition or authority as suspect. He decided he must discover a firm foundation for knowledge and so resolved to disbelieve anything and everything that could be disbelieved. This systematic process of doubt led to the speculation that God might be an evil joker and thus nothing, not even Descartes' own existence, could be sure. A this point Descartes discovered his foundation for all true knowledge, for even in doubting all, he was aware of the working of his own mind. His famous conclusion cogito ergo sum (I think, therefore I am), was the beginning of the modern view of truth in the western world.
Now the free use of reason unencumbered by any preconception or tradition has become the sure guide to the truth. Descartes was convinced that this truth could be found and with it the solution to all human problems if we would just shed our traditional biases. This promise of salvation required that each individual be freed to think and act on the basis of reason alone. A rootedness in tradition and community was sacrificed in the modern age to the right of the individual use of reason.
However, reason unbounded by tradition has not proven to be the salvation of humanity. The cost of this great modern experiment is still not fully calculated. One of these costs has been the neglect of the spiritual needs. A quest for a renewed spirituality seems to be one of characteristics of our age. Recent cover stories in Canada's Macleans Magazine and the United States' Newsweek reveal a sincere hunger for spiritual depth. People are willing to speak openly of their spiritual quests which are taking a wide variety of directions. To many, Christianity lacks the spiritual vitality they are seeking
Beyond this spiritual poverty is a loss of community. The individualism which accompanied the right of individual choice is far reaching in our culture. Rather than being connected into significant networks of relationship, the experience of most North Americans is alienation from one another. As part of this modern culture we are conditioned to protect our own interests at all costs and resist the claims of community or commitments which would limit the exercise of our personal freedom. At the same time, there is an urgent human need to be connected and committed which is at odds with this. Rising unwanted pregnancy and divorce statistics probably have less to do with the "joy of sex" than an unshakeable sense of aloneness.
The kind of tradition which I have suggested we need to consider, answers these cries of need. A tradition that is alive serves to orient us to what is ultimately of value and to ground us in a wider community that shares these values.
But this is rather abstract. Let's return to Alliance History and Thought. If my students are to feel this course is worthwhile they need to be able to see how it connects with who they are and what they feel called to do. When understood as a living tradition, Alliance history and thought is more than something to be read about in a textbook or studied for an exam. It is who we are, what we teach and preach, and how we live our commitments. We are Alliance because this tradition, expressed by Albert B. Simpson as the Fourfold Gospel, has continually witnessed to the fact that Christ's work has implications for us right now. It calls us to, and empowers us for holiness, it affirms Gods interest in the physical as well as the spiritual and it points to the hope of our calling.
What I have discovered is that these core values of the Alliance are tremendously attractive to students. Alliance history and thought is now not some dead system they have to somehow fit themselves into, but an expression of who they want to become and the message they want to proclaim. In this tradition there is something which can provide focus for their ministry and their lives no matter what the vocation to which God has called them.
The course has taken on new life as it ceased to be a recounting of what is past and became a dialogue between the tradition and those individuals and communities seriously committed to living this tradition. It is essential in this process to understand the vision and insights of A.B. Simpson and other great Alliance leaders in their context; then to distil the spiritual, theological and pastoral resourcs from them and finally discover ways to embody these in our lives and communities today.
At Canadian Bible College we have tried to fully integrate these aspects of our tradition into the life of an academic community. Our weekly schedule includes times of pause for prayer and worship. This is not an interruption of the academic agenda, but an essential part of it. Worship reminds us who God is and who we are and this serves as a foundation for what we do as a learning, thinking community.
Two days in each semester are specifically dedicated to prayer and the centerpiece of this day is a communion service at which we experience together the wonder of God's love, the forgiveness in Christ's sacrifice and unity by the Holy Spirit's presence. A significant aspect of this service is an invitation to trust the Lord for healing. Many of our students, even those from Alliance backgrounds, have never participated in such a service before. Our tradition is made alive to them as we profess together and for one another that Christ is indeed our healer.
Once during each semester there is an opportunity for reaffirming our tradition's distinctive connection between a vital spiritual life and our mission to the world. For three days our attention is turned from assignments and readings and classes to the wider reason for our life together, that of being made more fully into the character of the indwelling Christ and more fully committed to the task He has set for us. These are simple and perhaps obvious things, but they provide a grounding for our work of bringing the spiritual resources of the Alliance to a new generation.
Simpson himself may stand as a guide for how tradition may be given life. He inherited the rich resources of nineteenth century North American evangelicalism but was troubled by what he perceived as a lack of spiritual vitality. His solution was not some new message. Simpson was not a theological innovator but took the evangelical tradition and framed it in new language and practices which were alive to his generation.
Tradition cannot live by our being content with precise doctrinal definitions and well worn methods. It will come alive as we take the central insights of an indwelling Christ who awakens us to the needs of our world and embody them in new ways. Simpson connected with people by modeling how the Holy Spirit works in lives to remake them into the character of Christ by a daily, moment-by-moment abiding in Him. The measure of the Alliance as a living tradition will be how well we are able to live this out in our generation.
To conclude this consideration of tradition it might be useful to return to the needs of this generation for spirituality and community mentioned above. Our Christian tradition, and the message of the Alliance in particular, provide direction for addressing these needs. The full salvation which Simpson encapsulated in the Fourfold Gospel was a clear call to the full experience of Christ's work and the transforming grace of the Holy Spirit in each Christian life. We need to model and to teach a vibrant spirituality which a new generation of spiritual seekers will see as the true alternative to the spiritual vacuity of the modern world.
Spirituality is too often seen as an entirely private and individual pilgrimage. This I believe is the influence of modern individualism. Community is essential to an authentic spirituality. The transforming power of the Holy Spirit and Christ's call to mission are experienced in the community of Gods people. If there is one area in our tradition that needs careful thought it is our understanding of the Church. Let's call one another to a full experience of God's work in our churches so we can offer a true alternative to the false spiritualities and loss of community characteristic of the late twentieth century.

Innovations in synthetic biology, architecture, nanotechnology, 3D printing, and artificial intelligence are beginning to intertwine; an exciting time in exponential innovation. When applied to the built environment, interdisciplinary research is vital for solving construction and material issues to create superior environments.
The advent of synthetic biology has paved the way for hacking natural life forms, enabling designers to produce materials that are not only constructed quicker but often have superior qualities to the material than when it's constructed naturally.
Synthetic biology has gone further than simply creating materials that imitate natural products and processes, and instead, scientists are directly partnering natural entities into their design process.
Biological concrete and myelin mushroom bricks, for example, illustrate the benefit of harnessing biological algorithms to create 'living materials' that create less pollution than the construction and maintenance of synthetic materials.
Although the implications for biotechnological research are ongoing for architecture, the textile industry is paving the way for transforming materials, generating them at a greater quantity and at a much quicker rate.
A material steeped in history, silk is produced by silkworms and is known for its durability and softness. Unconventional in comparison to silkworm silk, spiders also produce a silk-like substance- a protein spun by the creatures that has exceptional biological qualities. Spiders produce these silk-like fibres at room temperature, using water as a solvent.
Innovations in biotechnological research have developed a technology which replicates the production of spider silk producing a synthetic textile that has the same advantages as natural spider silk but generated at a quicker rate and larger quantity.
California-based company Bolt Threads has spent over seven years studying the proteins found in spider silk via placing spider genetics (that enable the spider to produce silk), into yeast.
Founded by Dan Widmaier and David Breslauer in 2009, Bolt Threads produces large amounts of spider silk proteins via fermentation. Once the fermented silk protein is spun, the fibre is knitted and weaved into a silky material. This silk, however, is biologically superior to natural spider silk- it possesses a steel-like strength and is superior in durability and elasticity.
This lab-constructed material has significant implications in the textile industry, and recently, Bolt Threads partnered with Stella McCartney- a fashion company championing the connections between technological innovation and sustainability.
Although research is still in development regarding integrating synthetic biology software into the design of the built environment, as Bolt Thread shows, future construction and design materials with superior biologicall qualities are progressively on the horizon.

Scottsdale Japanese restaurant Sapporo to reopen as Kasai Asian Grill
Ask somebody what they love about their favorite sushi joint and nine times out of 10, they'll tell you the fish is fresh. But that should not be the only judging factor. Marina Beach/The Republic
The owners of Sapporo, a staple of the north Scottsdale sushi scene, are giving the restaurant a new name and menu. Kasai Asian Grill opens Nov. 16, with happy hour from 3 to 7 p.m. daily.
Sapporo, the swanky north Scottsdale Japanese restaurant known for its high-end Pacific rim fare, teppanyaki tables and nightlife ambiance, is getting a new menu and name.

Happy 60th Anniversary, Holy Father!
Pope Benedict XVI in "Behold the Pierced One" tells us,
"The goal of Eucharistic communion is a total recasting of a person's life, breaking up a man's whole 'I' and creating a new 'We'... it means that I myself become part of this new "bread" which he creates by transubstantiating all earthly reality."
Reflecting on becoming what we eat in this Eucharistic Banquet, what better way to recall this celebration of Corpus Christi and the Solemnity of Sts. Peter and Paul than with 60 hours of not thinking about the "I" rather the "we"?
The Vatican Congregation for Clergy has asked all clergy and faithful Catholics to pray for vocations in honor of the Holy Father's 60th Anniversary of Ordination. The Pope will celebrate his anniversary June 29th.
USCCB Secretariat of Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations has designed a prayer card that can be downloaded from www.foryourvocation.org.
Praying for the Church and especially priests is a part of our everyday life and we rejoice to share in this unifying transformation with the Mystical Body of Christ. So please join us in praying for the intention of the sanctification of the clergy and for the gift of new and holy priestly vocations.

BOSTON (CBS.MW) - Marsh & McLennan's chief executive officer said the world's largest insurance broker's review of more than two million emails and thousands of documents as well as "dozens and dozens" of interviews has shown that pricing-fixing issues at the firm weren't widespread. In a conference call, Michael Cherkasky, who is also Marsh's MMC, +0.16% president, said he's "cautiously optimistic that so far we have seen very limited price-fixing issues confined to a very few people in a narrow practice line."

Remember when Juan Williams told Michelle Malkin that he was a "real reporter," not just a "blogger"? Well, one of the most liberal federal courts in the country says that's a distinction without a difference under the First Amendment.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' decision Friday recognizing bloggers as journalists under the First Amendment came about in a defamation lawsuit.
"The protections of the First Amendment do not turn on whether the defendant was a trained journalist, formally affiliated with traditional news entities, engaged in conflict-of-interest disclosure, went beyond just assembling others' writings, or tried to get both sides of a story," the court ruled in Obsidian Finance Group v. Cox.
Obsidian had filed a lawsuit against Crystal Cox over accusations against the company that she had published on the Internet. Cox countered that the First Amendment protects such speech because the topic was of public interest and the people she wrote about were public figures, but a lower court judge rejected those defenses on the theory that Cox had not proven — nor had provided — "evidence suggestive of her status as a journalist."
The Ninth Circuit rejected that reasoning. "In defamation cases, the public-figure status of a plaintiff and the public importance of the statement at issue — not the identity of the speaker — provide the First Amendment touchstones," Judge Andrew Hurwitz wrote in the opinion.
UCLA law professor and First Amendment expert Eugene Volokh, who argued the case, noted the limits of the ruling. "[T]he court's reasoning is limited to First Amendment protections; it doesn't discuss state or federal statutes that provide extra protection to the 'media' or to other subsets of speakers," he said on his blog, the Volokh Conspiracy.

Andrea Obiso
Born in 1994, he is one of the youngest violinists in the world that received his first major degree with honors and special mention at only fourteen years old.
Considered by critics an "enfant prodige", he began studying violin with his father at age six and after a year he made his debut recital with his mother, pianist.
Being very fast at mastering the instrument, Andrea made his debut as a soloist at age thirteen with the "Fondazione Orchestra Sinfonica Siciliana" performing H. Vieuxtemps Violin Concerto No. 5.
Andrea Obiso won the "66th ARD International Competition 2017" in Munich (Germany) where he also won the special prize for the best performance of the world-premiered work "For Solo Violin" written by Avner Dorman.
Andrea was awarded 1st Prize and Public Prize at the Prix Ravel 2017, 2nd Prize at the "XI A. Khachaturian International Violin Competition", the "Special Prize for Virtuosic Performance" at the "6th Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians" in Korea. He was a semifinalist at the "Shanghai Isaac Stern International Violin Competition" and winner of eleven first prizes in national competitions.
Andrea is an "Artist Diploma" student at the world-renowned "Curtis Institute of Music" in Philadelphia where he studies with Aaron Rosand under the "Eileen Rosenau Fellowship Program." Furthermore, he studies conducting, counterpoint in composition, improvisation and aesthetics of music with the professors and his mentors Jonathan Coopersmith, Noam Sivan and Ford Lallerstaedt.
From 2005 to 2015, he has been the youngest student admitted to the Accademia Chigiana in Siena (Italy) in the studio of Boris Belkin, with whom he studied also at the Maastricht Conservatory.
He has received musical advices and collaborated with Lilya Zilberstein, Antonio Meneses, Augustin Hadelich, Bob McDonald, Peter Wiley, Arnold Steinhardt, Ignatius Solzhenitsyn, Ida Kavafian, Roberto Diaz, Gérard Poulet, Olivier Charlier, Philippe Graffin, Isabelle Duha, Alexis Galperine, Bruno Pasquier, the Ebéne Quartet, Mikhail Kopelman, Kimiko Nakazawa, George Pehlivanian, Steven Mercurio, Gianluigi Gelmetti, Michael Francis, Vladimir Spivakov, Andrea Licata, Stefano Ranzani and Nicola Paszkowsky.
He has an impressive solo and chamber music repertoire. His list of 34 violin concertos includes those of Tchaikovsky, Brahms, Sibelius, Saint-Saens, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Paganini, Glazunov, Dvorak, Strauss, Prokofiev and many others.
His most important performances have happened with the Bayerische Rundfunk Symphonie Orchester, Muenchener Kammerorchester, Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, Central Aichi Symphony Orchestra of Japan, Orchestra Sinfonica di Roma, State Youth Orchestra of Armenia, Orchestra del Teatro Bellini di Catania, Orchestra Filarmonica di Bologna, Orchestra Sinfonica di Sanremo, Orkest der Lage Landen, Moscow Virtuosi, Orchestra del Teatro Massimo di Palermo, Limburgs Symfonie Orkest, Orchestra Arturo Toscanini di Parma and many others, always acclaimed by public and critics.
He has participated in several TV Shows and Radio Programs on BR-KLASSIK in Germany, on RAI 1 in Italy, and was a guest artist in many prestigious festivals as the "Festival of the Two Worlds" in Spoleto, the "Fontainebleau Music Festival" in Paris, "Sagra Malatestiana" in Rimini and the "Linari Classical Music Festival" in Florence.
In earlier seasons he made his debut in Moscow, at the Kremlin, with "The Moscow Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra" and Vladimir Spivakov, conductor, then in Japan and China. His 2016-2017 season kept Andrea on Tour in Europe, in Latin America (Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay and Chile) and to make his debut at the Herculessaal and at Gasteig Philarmonie in Munich. In 2018 Andrea is going on tour in Germany and Finland and he will make his debut at the prestigious Berlin Philarmonie with the Deutches Symphonie Orchester Berlin presented and recorded by Deutschlandfunk Kultur.
Andrea Obiso currently plays on a "Joseph Guarneri del Gesù 1741" violin, gracefully loaned by "NPO Yellow Angel" and uses a "E. Pajeot" bow loaned by "Nippon Violin Co. Ltd.".
