This play tells the story of a lower-class black family's struggle to gain middle-class acceptance. When the play opens, Mama, the sixty-year-old mother of the family, is waiting for a $10,000 insurance check from the death of her husband, and the drama will focus primarily on how the $10,000 should be spent.
The son, Walter Lee Younger, is so desperate to be a better provider for his growing family that he wants to invest the entire sum in a liquor store with two of his friends. The mother objects mainly for ethical reasons; she is vehemently opposed to the idea of selling liquor. Minor conflicts erupt over their disagreements.
When Mama decides to use part of the money as a down payment on a house in a white neighborhood, her conflict with Walter escalates and causes her deep anguish. In an attempt to make things right between herself and her son, Mama entrusts Walter Lee with the rest of the money. He immediately invests it secretly in his liquor store scheme, believing that he will perhaps quadruple his initial investment.
One of Walter Lee's prospective business partners, however, runs off with the money, a loss which tests the spiritual and psychological mettle of each family member. After much wavering and vacillating, the Youngers decide to continue with their plans to move — in spite of their financial reversals and in spite of their having been warned by a weak representative of the white neighborhood that blacks are not welcome.

UNCW Featured in Skillsoft Case Study
Friday, November 08, 2013
UNCW has been recently featured in a new Skillsoft case study. On their corporate website, Skillsoft highlights UNCW's successful alignment of Skillsoft learning resources with strategic campus initiatives, including Backboard orientation, School of Nursing orientation and a first-year research tutorial, among others.
UNCW's Information Technology Systems (ITS) offers SkillChoice Complete, a collection of business, IT and desktop courses and books, to all faculty, staff and students. They may access the learning resources through Skillsoft's learning management system, SkillPort, giving them ability to learn when and where they choose. Additionally, ITS has reached out to numerous university departments and groups to find ways of providing efficiencies and solutions via Skillsoft.
"We found many potential courses to supplement our staff development programs," says Beverly Vagnerini, Director of Technology Research Assessment Services, ITS. "The competency mapping tool is an excellent resource for isolating targeted courses and recommended reading for specific job classifications."
Dr. Richard Olsen, Associate Professor and Department Chair in Communication Studies, also notes, "I have 120 students and no teaching assistant. Harnessing technology like Skillsoft has been one of the key ways to create rigor and active learning on a scale I can manage."
View the complete case study here (PDF).
More on utilizing Skillsoft can be found on the ITS website here.

MYRTLE BEACH A Myrtle Beach woman has been arrested after police say she choked a man for taking too much of the covers in the bed they shared.
Authorities say 42-year-old Tina Berryhill Rucker was arrested Wednesday around 11 p.m. and charged with criminal domestic violence.
Police say a man told them he was lying in bed with Rucker when he tried to pull more of the blanket that they shared to his side.
He says Rucker jumped on top of him and tried to choke him. Police said the man was bleeding where Rucker had scratched him in the neck.
Authorities say Rucker was intoxicated and uncooperative. She was being held without bond. It wasnt known if Rucker had an attorney.

Not so long ago, people in space were either astronauts or cosmonauts. Then the Chinese gave us taikonauts. Now, another billion-strong nation with an ambitious space programme – India – is seeking a new breed of spacefarers: vyomanauts, according to Indian media.
The tongue-twisting term comes from the Sanskrit for sky or space (vyoma, pronounced veeohma). The closest Sanskrit word to astronaut would have been vyomagami, for something that passes in the sky. The other word for an Indian spacefarer that had been bandied about was gaganaut (gagan is also Sanskrit for sky). But "vyoma is very good", says Choudury Upender Rao, a professor of Sanskrit studies at the Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi. "It's an appropriate choice."
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is now in the process of choosing four vyomanauts from a pool of 200 fighter pilots, P. Madhusoodanan of the Indian Air Force told DNA, a daily newspaper, this week.
India's first crewed space mission is scheduled for 2015, designs for which were unveiled last year by Madhavan Nair, former chairman of ISRO. The three-person vehicle will initially carry two vyomanauts into 275-kilometre low-Earth orbit. Before this flight, ISRO will launch its second moon mission in 2013.

This is why we will win.
The eagles special teams has been horrendous in preseason. I know its preseason but Andy left most of his 1st team STers for most of the games after the pitt debacle. They are lost. They get no coverage on kicks/punts, no wedges on returns. Not to mention their punter has a hernia.
We are easily the best ST unit in the NFL, and the eagles have looked terrible in this aspect during the preseason. Rossum will return a kick or punt for a TD, I havent decided yet, and we will block atleast one punt. I heard that Johnsons hernia is makeing have a slow release on his punts.
Book it
Special Teams
Discuss your favorite team: the Atlanta Falcons. As well as all NFL and pro football-related topics, including fantasy football.

Injecting carbon nanotubes into mice shows they can trigger similar toxic responses to asbestos fibres, causing a strong immune response and possibly cancer in the abdominal cavity, researchers say.
But another recent study suggests the tiny tubes, which are increasingly appearing in commercial and industrial products, are not dangerous when inhaled, probably because they do not persist in the body as asbestos fibres do.
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) first came to the attention of researchers in the early 1990s. Incredibly strong for their size and able to function as both conductors and semiconductors, the tiny structures are thought to be ideal for applications that range from drug delivery to space elevators.
But under a microscope, some CNTs look identical to asbestos fibres, leading to concerns that they could cause similar health problems. Occupational exposure to asbestos led to widespread lung disease, and cancers known as mesothelioma, in the 20th century.
Deadly lookalike
Asbestosis research revealed a checklist of features that makes the fibres dangerous, says Ken Donaldson at the University of Edinburgh, UK.
Ever since, it was presumed that any needle-like fibres around 20 micrometers long with an ability to persist in the body could have similarly dangerous effects. Donaldson and colleagues have now shown this holds true for carbon nanotubes.
When they injected multi-walled carbon nanotubes - composed of a hierarchy of tubes within tubes - into the abdominal cavity of mice, they saw a strong immune reaction within seven days to tubes longer than 20 micrometers. Lesions known as granulomas had developed in the tissue surrounding the abdominal organs.
The granulomas form when the macrophage immune cells that usually swallow and neutralise foreign particles take on the tubes. The cells get ruptured and die when they try to swallow fibres longer than 20 micrometers.
Highly charged
But Donaldson points out that his study does not reveal whether nanotubes are able to persist in the body long enough to reach the areas he directly injected them into. "We need to show this result in an inhalation study," he says.
James Bonner at the North Carolina State University, Raleigh, US, will shortly publish one of the first such studies.
In his experiments, mice breathed air containing 40-micrometer-long multi-walled nanotubes. "Very little inflammatory or fibrogenic effect was observed," he says.
Donaldson notes that determining the true risks of nanotubes will involve measuring the ways in which people will be exposed to them, something studies on toxicity cannot judge.
There is little evidence about exposure so far, says Donaldson. "But the good news is that nanotubes are probably not very 'dirty'," he says. "They are quite highly charged and stick together, so they don't seem to get airborne easily."

L.A. Noire is one of the more interesting video games I have ever played not simply because I enjoyed most of what the game's development team put into the title, but because it brought to mind so many memories – not all of them pleasant – of experiences I have had during my journalism career.
This is not a second review. It's more of a self-indulgent column about some ideas that came to mind while playing L.A. Noire. Take it for whatever you think it's worth.
Playing and writing about L.A. Noire led me to wonder how my time as a
news reporter may have made my experiences with the game different from
those of other reviewers whose careers are more firmly rooted in the
gaming and entertainment media.
I have never been a full-time crime reporter – let alone worked in
law enforcement – but I have had at least a glimpse of the
grimier side of California life over the course my newspaper years.
What follows are some stories to explain why I found L.A. Noire to be more affecting on a personal level than other games I highly admire, such as those within the Legend of Zelda, Fallout and Mass Effect series.
For example, I still have a business card bearing the name of a once-popular
San Bernardino city recreation manager who confessed to child
molestation in March 2010. He was a well-respected man, however, before
his July 2008 arrest, and I even interviewed him about a new
recreational center a few days before he was placed into custody. As a
reporter for The Sun, I spent much of the next three months working with
then-colleague Robert Rogers to investigating problems within the city's
recreational programs.
(We discovered that the program's had been underfunded for several years, and
employees like Miller had been subject to lax discipline. I like to
think our work forced policymakers to pay more attention to the people
entrusted with San Bernardino's children.)
I also still have a business card belonging to a former city treasurer
in the city of Redlands who pleaded guilty to illegally altering a
public document after first being charged with three felonies stemming from
the allegedly illegal transfer of $38,000. The San Bernardino County
District Attorney never presented evidence of outright theft, and the case
seemed to be more the result of a bad decision made to cover up a
problem in the city's accounting. Nonetheless, the scandal cost the man his ability to serve in public office and qualified as a fairly significant news story.
A judge sentenced the child molester to 28 years in state prison and the
treasurer received three years probation. I hope to never see the first
guy again, but even though I broke the news that the Redlands official
was under investigation, I personally consider him to be a basically
decent person who made a mistake. If our paths ever cross, I wouldn't
mind shaking his hand.
So what does this have to do with L.A. Noire? Playing the role of Detective Cole Phelps, players run into people who are simply bad, and others who run afoul of the law because they are scared or have made serious mistakes. Although I did not think the resolution of all of the game's cases made sense, L.A. Noire's storyline has enough moral complexity for players to question not only witnesses but their own motivations. During the course of playing the game, I woke up one morning wondering if I had charged the right person with a crime. I think that was a sign of the game's developers effectively using their medium.
L.A. Noire's developers also did well in capturing the
interview experience. Although the roles of a
detective and news reporter are very different, people in both
professions must learn how to hone their abilities to differentiate
between truths, half-truths and lies. They must learn to respect facts
and evidence over emotion. I enjoyed cross-checking characters' statements with the evidence in my notebook, and appreciated that investigations don't start over after a failed interview. Players must instead rethink their approach and seek additional facts, just as a real investigator would have to do.
I've never had to examine a murder victim the way a detective would.
I haven't even been to a murder scene since I transferred from our
metro desk to the business desk about six months ago. Playing the game, however, called to mind such memories as the first
time I covered a homicide.
I was then a rookie reporter in Huntington Beach and the police arrested a man on suspicion of stabbing his mother to death. I had
no formal training in journalism and had no idea how to write about such a thing. I managed to write a short story even though I could not
find anyone to interview who could have shared their memories of the victim for the article.
The second murder I covered also happened in Huntington Beach. The
victim was a 19-year-old cashier at a 99 Cents Only store and I had a
very difficult time steeling myself to interview my family. I have
learned that the bereaved often witsh to share stories about their lost
loved ones, but I did not know this at the time and was worried
about coming off as a vulture. I was considerably relieved when the young woman's mother told me she liked my article.
My point, at the risk of repeating myself, is that L.A. Noire effectively portrays what it is like to be at a crime scene, or to be around shady characters. This may be one too many anecdotes, but I once went to go visit a man running for the San Bernardino City Council to ask him about his domestic violence convictions. He answered the door with a sledge hammer in hand and invited me inside. I accepted the invitation, then immediately wondered if I had made a mistake and started looking for exit routes.
I didn't need to worry. He ended up agreeing to an interview and offered me some iced tea. He came in last place on Election Night.
The upshot is that those who play L.A. Noire will end up in more shootouts than any real-life detective, but will also experience a fairly realistic simulation of what happens during an investigation, and a chance to think seriously about topics that are rarely dealt with in a video game. Perhaps more than any game I've ever played, L.A. Noire asks players to imagine dead characters as real people whose lives had value. I cannot say the game is perfect, but for that, it definitely has my respect.

Katie Couric's return to daytime TV began with Katie in bed, having a nightmare. She woke up with a jolt and said to someone in the next twin bed, who was buried under the covers: "Wow! I just had the weirdest dream! I left 'Today' to anchor the evening news and did it for five years, and then I dreamed I was going to be hosting my own daytime talk show!"
The other person disentangled himself from the bedclothes. It was — Matt Lauer! Katie's "Today" show husband! Did you see that one coming? We sure did!

Narrow your search
The Virginia carrier gets the iPhone 5 and sticks a $149.99 price tag on the 16GB model. Other iPhones are going for as low as 1 cent.
Sprint's customers can now roam across a dozen partner networks spread all over the country.
The small regional Virginia-area carrier will start selling the iPhone 4S on April 20. The device will be offered at a $50 discount. And Alaska Communications is getting it, too.
The two phones will be available through such carriers as Appalachian Wireless, Bluegrass Cellular, and Nex-Tech Wireless.
Dish Network has ambitions to become a challenger in the home broadband market, but it needs valuable spectrum from Clearwire, Sprint, and LightSquared.
Some smaller carriers will trim $50 off the normal retail price for Apple's next-generation smartphone when they begin selling it tomorrow.
With the iPhone seemingly everywhere -- including prepaid courtesy of Cricket -- it isn't quite as special as it used to be. That's bad news for the carriers.
Alaska Communications, Appalachian Wireless, GCI, Cellcom, and nTelos will offer Apple's flagship phone on their networks starting today.
This edition of Ask Maggie covers how to select the best carrier for the iPhone 4S as well as which carrier might be best for an expected LTE-version of the iPhone.
T-Mobile offers great value on its service, but customers are frustrated by the lack of handset choices, especially those lusting to buy an iPhone.

As published by Bob Grotz in the Delaware County Daily Times - 2/27/2011
| Katie Young
The only thing more disheartening than losing a championship game is blowing it at home.
Neumann University seniors Katie Young, Krista DiRomualdo, an Archbishop Prendergast product, and Kieran Young relayed that to teammates after Immaculata scratched out a modest lead with the season on the line Saturday at the Mirenda Center.
"They said 'we're not letting them cut down our nets,'" sophomore guard Bethany Humenik said. "They told us 'this is our house, this is our time and they're not going to cut down our nets.'"
Shortly thereafter it was Neumann's time to take down the nets.
With 54.1 seconds left Humenik drilled a 3-pointer in rhythm to snap a tie and bring the crowd to its feet.
Seconds later Katie Young added a pair of insurance free throws with 30 ticks left to seal a 66-60 success giving the Knights their second straight CSAC title and NCAA Division III Tournament berth.
Young insisted it was a team effort. The Knights (20-7) knew otherwise. They would have been watching their opponent celebrate had the CSAC Player of the Year not erupted for 25 points, 15 rebounds, three steals and two assists in addition to reaching 1,000 career points.
"What a night for her," Knights coach Frank Farnese said. "We win the championship. She scores her 1,000th point. She's CSAC tournament MVP. She threw all of us on her shoulders and just carried us."
It looked like the Mighty Macs (19-9) would go quietly after Neumann rolled to an early 21-10 lead without even shooting well.
With Young in the paint the Knights had begun their domination of the glass, where they owned a 55-39 bulge in the game.
The Knights hadn't played up to their standard yet held an eight-point lead at the intermission, both teams seeming preoccupied with taking that extra dribble instead of catching and shooting in rhythm.
The wakeup calls for the Knights starting coming with nine minutes left in the second half. Point guard Chrissy Esbensen, who scored a team-high 16 points, gave the Macs a 50-48 lead.
After Young's 1,000th point cut the gap to one point, Esbensen's three-point play boosted the Macs to a 55-51 advantage with 3:58 remaining.
The momentum was firmly with the visitors until the Knights put their season in the hands of Young, who twice posted-up the visitors to knot the score at 58 and 60. That also opened up enough daylight for Humenik to make her game-changing trey.
"It wasn't a set play," said Humenik who tallied nine points. "I just got it in the corner and I didn't think twice. When it went in I was running down the court saying, 'oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness — I made it!'"
Young, and the Knights' defense, did the rest. Farnese switched his team into a full-court press to keep the ball away from the immensely talented Esbensen, and that kept the Macs from getting good shots.
Humenik remembers the time when Neumann was considered "an easy W." No more. No more.
"We lost the two-time Player of the Year Brittany Whetts going into the season," Farnese said. "Who was to say it wasn't going to be a rebuilding year? We got people to step up this year. Krista DiRomualdo, Katie Young, Sami Borcky, Kieran Young, Bethany Humenik. They took the challenge and just ran with it. Two times, it's a great feeling. Especially winning it in front of our fans."

I don't know what to do with all this hate. Help...please...Submitted by castrofreak on Sun, 08/05/2012 - 2:07pm
This is long. Please bear with me.
My husband has (or used to have) an extremely.... weird relationship with his ex as parents. Before we got married, we were long-distance. Him in Florida, and me in other state. 1600 miles of distance. Two years before I met him, he had a son with a girl that was manipulative and mean. They weren't in a relationship as they used to be (they were on and off for 5 years, but most of the time she was off...with some other guy). He has only seen his son once, when he was born. The mother REFUSES to let him see his son (or at least we think he's the father... the mother refuses to do a DNA test. But the child looks like him.)
Basically, after she told him she had the baby (another thing, she didn't tell him she was pregnant until she had the child), they started talking alot. Tried to make it work for the kid, but it didn't work out. She was too mean, and too manipulative, and too...promiscuous. About 2 months after they called it quits for good, him and I started talking, and got into a serious relationship. During the whole time he was in Florida, they talked too much, in my opinion. It was never about the kid, it was always about her. She was still 'in love' with him. She knew he was in a committed relationship, but still tried to get him back anyway. It was obsessive.
When he moved here, to be with me, he told her he was moving to KS (where I live.) She still pursued him. The first day he was here, he ignored her calls, because it was our time, not hers. She called about 3-4 times that first day. Left 'loving' voicemails. Sent him texts that were sexual. Telling him she loves him. It's persistant. They haven't talked for the past 4 months because he hasn't had a phone, and its extremely peaceful. When they would talk, it would always end in a fight because she would always say or do something to make me upset. And he has a hard time standing up to her.
I'm starting to resent this child so much, because...the only reason they have anything to do with eachother is because of him. If it weren't for him, they would never have any contact, because he hates her too. I just feel so much jealousy for the thing that I don't have with him. I hate that child for this. I know he's only 3-4 years old, but its tearing me apart. I know its not the kid's fault, but I don't know how not to feel this way towards him. I wish I could not resent that entire relationship, but it's impossible. I feel like no one understands how I feel about this. So alone. I want to be free from the hate, but I hate her. I can't love a child that I feel nothing for. No connection to.
There's so much hate and jealousy inside of me right now. I feel like I'm about to explode. Can someone please tell me what to do?
He wants to establish
He wants to establish paternity and set up visitation, but he doesn't have the money to take that to court, so we can't do much of that now. It would be years before him or I would have to deal with the mother or the s/kid. But I'm absolutely dreading the day when we have some custody. Either way, we're not planning on living anywhere near where she does (I refuse to live in Florida, because of the s/kid and BM, though I wouldn't admit it to DH), so we would only have him every once in a while, until he gets older and can decide when and/or if he wants to see his dad.
They sell the kits at
They sell the kits at pharmacies everywhere and you pay a lab via mail. For a couple hundred will know if its a match. And if she is getting support and he has visitation, he could have demanded a DNA test and if she refused, she would not be able to get any support from him. However, if he waived his right, he is screwed if the kid is not his.
I am confused...I though he sometimes has the kid and she calls? I think I misunderstood "Our Time", sorry
And you do not need a lawyer to get custody, visitation or CS...you can do Pro Se (self representation) and if your income is low, you can even get help from a lawyer for free.
All of my comments are just an opinion, please do not take offense,
*Stepmom for 12 years of SS15, SD13 and also Mom of DS9...and it ain't easy but I knew it wouldn't be when I chose it. Thanks for this group to help me thru this rough teenage bit!
You just expressed the
You just expressed the resentment a lot of us feel (whether a little or a lot, sometimes, often or all the time) and why we need groups like this. Others who have never been a step parent would never get it...i was a stepchild and never got it, I do now. Its funny how people say "My Mom always wished I had a kid just like me". And I have an skid (SS) who is very much like me. I have many regrets in how I acted as a kid. I thought I was singled out for abuse because of my skid status when really his biokids got even worse treatment in a different way and they turned out to be terrible at being accountable and cannot support themselves, etc. I thank God that I was raised the way I was because I later learned A TON of things that could have been MUCH worse.
I chose this marriage knowing it was going to be a hard row to hoe. I didn't know how bad or how good it would be, and I am sure its not that bad in comparison with a lot of people. I love my DH so much. I hate myself often for not being better, being more...but it is what it is for all of us because we are human. I thank God he loves me even though I am imperfect by far (God not DH, lol)
You never know if or when you will break. I thought the timer was set at 18 or so for the youngest SK so that we would not have to suffer BM anymore. Then I realized after reading a lot of the posters on here that skid hell continues all through life, especially if they don't learn to love you in some way. I hope to be better so they will love me and include me in their lives and children's lives, I have been their SM since one was 1 and the other was 3. Even though some days I feel the resentment or the anger...I don't want to. It's not their fault. I fight for me, for respect, and I fight for a voice, and I fight for DH, and I fight for each of my three (my BS and 2 SK's), and I fight for all of us. I just try to take each day, each hour at a time and hope I can bear it. Even if we weren't SM's I am sure there are a lot of other things in life we would have to suffer through. Nobody has a perfect life. Nobody. So Good Luck to you.

How can you hate a kid you've
How can you hate a kid you've never met?
In 3~4 years, this guy has never had enough money to court to get a visits with his son?
It only cost my DF $40 to get visits in place with his girls. That fee was to have BM served.
The hate and jealousy you
The hate and jealousy you feel is something you need to deal with inside of yourself. I'd HIGLY suggest therapy. I can't overly state that.
Look at the logic (or lack of) here. Your DH has a child. This relationship and this child predate your involvement with him. This child is only a preschooler. This child is a part of your DH. You don't know this child and there is no reason to hate him.
Your DH needs to file for a DNA test. If he's the father, he needs to file for CS (he needs to support that child) and file for custody/visitation. Being long distance, there is very little reason for much communication between the parents at all.
I can't stand when men whine all about how the BM "won't let them" do x, y, z. Sack up and handle your business, dude. Seriously.
Stick a fork in me... I'm done...
I'd say have bf step up or
I'd say have bf step up or you step out.
I am not privvy to what's
I am not privvy to what's going on inside your heart here, other than what you said.
However, what I read in your entire post was not so much you HATE the child, but the
situation with the BM. And since the entire reason she's even trying to LOVE on your
DH and get him back, thus attacking YOUR relationship, is this child right now. And
that's a heavy situation to deal with.
Instead of focusing on the child, because like you said, he's a 3-4 yr old and it's not
his fault, focus more on what you and your DH can do to render HER ineffectual in your lives.
I have never met SS10s BM, she's long gone. DH doesn't harbor any feelings in that arena.
However, his sister and my MIL live in the same town as the BM, and I get updates as the
wife. I understand that they are trying to protect my hubby and son, however, for some
reason I see RED when SIL calls her by a nickname, as if there's some familiar connection,
while she's giving me the latest update about her criminal life. SIGH.
I have to consciously make an effort every single day to not look for that woman, that stranger,
in SS10. While SS10 gives me plenty of reasons to dislike the person he is becoming, I don't want
to have HER become one of them.
It maybe hard at first, but when those BM and kid thoughts pop up, take your mind off of it. Go have
sex with your man. Go have romantic things with him. Water your relationship garden. Because, in the end
the entire reason you feel threatened is because you don't want it to ruin your relationship.
Focus on him and you. Just you two for now. What comes in the future will come.
Stephen King has ruined your step children!
Telling the truth is not bullying.
Own your shit or get off the pot!
There is nothing wrong with
There is nothing wrong with you. If you feel this is not the right situation for you and you just got a small taste of what your life will be - cut your losses right now and gather yourself up and move on.So many of us fight reality and as a result end up with resentment , frustration and inevitably think that we need therapy. Yes, we do need therapy so that we can find our self - worth and self - respect and find a man that will be a better fit for us.
Your boyfriend needs to take care of his situation and when he has taken care of it he can call you and talk to you. Until then I suggest you live your happy life and do not take on unresolved issues from his past. He seems to me emotionally unavailable and in a mess . You cannot spent time sorting out this guy`s mess. He needs to sort himself out.You can be a friend but you cannot take it upon yourself to save him. If you do you harm yourself and your psyche and get blamed for being a bad person. Direct your energy towards nurturing animals, volunteering etc. Learn how to interact with life in a harmonious way!

Christmas is here and the celebration has already commenced in most parts of the world, especially in nations believed to be predominantly Christians.
Jesus Christ lived on earth but was not of the world. He lived peacefully with mankind and taught them to love one another, love your neighbor (including our enemies), to eschew hatred and share gifts beyond domestic frontiers. He left a lesson of peace and encouraged us to believe in Jehovah (The All Mighty God or Allah) only. But as great as he was and the inspiring lessons he provided, the mankind's activities continue to be not only disappointing, but completely appalling.
Christmas is a time of giving and sharing regardless of race, creed, color, religious orientation, political affiliation, etc. It is the time when the Christian Church is supposed to reach out to the poor and needy and put a smile on their faces. It is the time for the Church to celebrate its role in reconciling our people, providing the moral yard stick for the conduct of our activities, and serving as the only hope for mankind to come to The Savior of the world, whose birth is celebrated on December 25. Christmas is a season when the Christian Church also celebrates peace and promote its message of love and peace.
During the initial years of the Liberia civil conflict, the Christian Church joined with other Faiths to restore hope to the Liberian people and bring about an end to the conflict. Unfortunately today, the Church has taken a spectator role while society deteriorates in almost every aspect of human life.
Young people, some of whom are members of these churches go about half naked in the streets in the name of celebrating the season. Some men and women, most of whom are members of these churches, have turned to deviant sexual behavior in which same sex contacts are practiced. Public officials continue to haul inflict insults on one another to the detriment of the Government of and the entire population.
There are issues of economic inequalities; social injustice, morality and endemic corruption endemic in our country. Church leaders, who are supposed to be the guiding angels for mankind's search for the risen Savior, have themselves become politicians and parties to these unkind unbiblical things.
Yet, the Christian Church remains loudly quiet and has failed to help this country make God centered and meaningful progress over the last several years.
We call on the Christian Church to wake up from its slumber and assume its rightful role of confronting society's problems that are destroying our nation - permeating immorality or moral decadence, family disintegration, etc.
While it is true that the government has a responsibility for peace, reconciliation, security, etc., the salvation of the people of God is indisputably the duty of the church, a role the Church must assume and actively play.

This has to be one of my favorite meals of all time.
As I was making it a few nights ago, it hit me that I haven't shared it with you yet!!
This one has been in my arsenal for YEARS, and we often have it on winter evenings when we want something light and warming.
Once I decided to start making my homemade fish broth with fish bones and heads, I realized it added a whole new depth of flavor homemade chicken bone broth just couldn't give it.
And it's not just about flavor.
"Fish broth will cure anything." South American Proverb
Do try and make some fish broth just almost as often as you do with beef and chicken broths. It freezes wonderfully. I make my fish broth about once a month and thaw it to add to fish soups, and curries.
From Sally Fallon's Nourishing Traditions.
- Fish stock, made from the carcasses and heads of fish, is especially rich in minerals including all-important iodine. Even more important, stock made from the heads, and therefore the thyroid glands of the fish, supplies thyroid hormone and other substances that nourish the thyroid gland….
- According to some researchers, at least 40% of all Americans suffer from a deficiency of the thyroid gland with its accompanying symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, frequent colds and flu, inability to concentrate, depression and a host of more serious complications like heart disease and cancer. We would do well to imitate Mediterranean and Asian regions by including fish broth in the diet as often as possible.
Stay tuned for next week, when I share my recipe for home-made fish broth!
- 2 TBS good quality coconut oil or grass-fed pastured butter
- ½ cup yellow onion, chopped
- 1 whole kefir lime leaf (optional, if you can find it)
- 1 celery stalk, chopped finely
- 1 carrot, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2½ cups fish or chicken broth, preferably homemade
- 2 TBS good quality sugar-free curry powder
- 1 (14oz) can full fat coconut milk
- 2 TBS arrowroot, dissolved in ¼ cup cold broth, coconut milk or water
- ½ lb shelled wild-caught raw shrimp
- juice of one lime
- salt and pepper to taste
- garnish:
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped
- sesame oil
- Heat the coconut oil on medium-high in a large sauce pan.
- Add the onions and lime leaf.
- Cook until onions are translucent.
- Add the celery, carrot and garlic, cook for 3 minutes.
- Add the broth and curry powder, simmer the until the carrots are tender.
- Add the coconut milk and arrowroot/water mixture. Stir and allow to thicken.
- Add the shrimp and simmer until shrimp are fully cooked, about 3 minutes.
- Add lime juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Top with chopped green onions, cilantro and a tiny drizzle of sesame oil.

The remaining matches of matchday 8 in Bundesliga saw Stuttgart losing 0-2 at home against Werder Bremen. As told in earlier posts, Hamburg failed to defeat Hertha BSC by a margin of 3 goals which cost them the top spot in the table. Bayer Leverkusen sit pretty on top with goal difference.
Ahlen were defeated 0 – 2 at home against Hansa Rostock whereas St. Pauli defeated Munich 1860 3-1 in front of home fans. FSV Frankfurt drew 1 – 1 at home against Kaiserslautern in Bundesliga II action on Sunday.
Sunday action in Ligue 1 saw the away teams winning all the matches played. Lille, Lorient and Monaco defeated Boulogne, Toulouse and Marseille respectively.

Motherwell, St. Mirren and Rangers registered home wins against Falkirk, Hearts and Celtic respectively.
