The Quest for Mere Christianity
- Thursday, August 04, 2011
These conversations got me thinking. What kind of church do I want Redeemer Church to be? What does the deep church look like in the area of unity? As I pondered this, I was reminded of an e-mail I got from another pastor in my denomination. Someone brought to his attention that our church had ethicist and theologian Vigen Guroian speak on culture and literature. I will never forget the Friday night talk on Pinocchio from a Christian worldview. The audience sat entranced as this master teacher took us through the story, episode by episode, bringing it alive in a way we had never heard. Why had we not learned this in school?
This other pastor who e-mailed me wondered why we would have someone from the Orthodox tradition speak at our church. This was causing confusion in our little corner of the denomination, making it hard for pastors like him, he said, to explain to people what our denomination stands for. In his eyes, our churches don't host Orthodox thinkers who don't hold the same views as we do. By having Guroian speak, we were endorsing, in this pastor's eyes, faulty theology. He described our church as being less than Reformed and Presbyterian.
I didn't respond to the e-mail. But if I had, I would have explained to him that Vigen came to speak on culture, not eastern Orthodox theology. But even if he had come to enlighten us on Orthodoxy, that would have been fine. We can learn from him. But this topic aside, Redeemer Church stands squarely and proudly on our tradition and heritage. We are not ashamed of our tradition; we embrace it and practice it. But at the same time we desire and promote the broader unity of the church. We hold strongly to the classical consensus, finding our unity with Vigen and others in the "unity of the gospel" as articulated in the creeds of the first four centuries. This allows us to be very open and charitable to fellow believers who hold different bottom-tier views than we do.
How does Redeemer hold faithfully to the tension of plurality and particularity, that is, being deeply rooted in a historic tradition and at the same time open to dialogue with our differences? Let me give some examples. First, we root our congregation each week in historic liturgy that draws from the best of Christian history. Our sermons and our weekly school of discipleship are rooted in a commitment to teach the full counsel of God in a way that is culturally relevant, timely and informed by the Reformed tradition. We teach the Bible. But our understanding of the Bible has been wonderfully shaped by the tradition we are part of.
But we also celebrate our commonality with other Christians. For example, there is no "safe" book list at Redeemer. We allow and encourage our people to read widely from the other traditions of Christianity. Our book table contains—right alongside Luther, Calvin and the Puritan divines—Miroslav Volf, Vigen Guroian, N. T. Wright, Glen Stassen and Dallas Willard. All of them affirm the classical consensus even though our bottom-tier views differ. We train our members to read discerningly, to think for themselves and to be enriched by other traditions even as they dig deep in the soil of their own tradition.
Second, we don't merely preach deep church distinctives; we practice them. In other words, we spend our time and energy joyfully living in our Christian commitments; we don't spend a lot of time pointing out our differences from other denominations, churches or Christians. We don't want to be defined by what we are against but what we are for.
Third, we watch our attitude. Sinful attitudes divide Christians. As my former professor John Frame says, "Because we want glory for ourselves, we seek to find fault in others. Contentious people are constantly looking for something to argue about, some way to start controversy and disrupt the peace." Though we strive to be discerning, we don't dwell on the faults of other traditions or Christian thinkers. Even when we disagree with others, we try to find their strengths and don't blow their weaknesses out of proportion to make our case. This is divisive. We give others the benefit of the doubt, reading them in the best possible light to preserve unity and foster mutual dialogue in order to learn from and exhort one another. Agreeing with Frame, we eschew harshness, jealousy, snobbery, party spirit, bitterness and lack of openness—all enemies of unity.

FM2 visas are issued for one year and can be renewed each year as long as you stay in Mexico. Unlike the FM3 visa, FM2 visas give you the status of an immigrant (inmigrante). After five years of living in Mexico with an FM2 visa you can apply for a permanent resident status (inmigrado).
Just like non-immigrant FM3 visas, FM2 visas are granted for various purposes that define the activities you can carry out in Mexico:
- Retirees or Living off of Resources (Rentistas) - allows you to live in Mexico on a pension income but does not allow you to work in Mexico.
- Investor (Inversionista) – granted upon a minimum investment in Mexico
- Professional (Profesional) – allows you to practice a profession in Mexico if your professional degree is registered and acknowledged by the Federal Professionals Degrees Registry at the Federal Ministry of Public Education
- Trusted Personnel (Cargos de Confianza) – granted to high level management or other high-level positions in a Mexican company
- Scientist (Cientifico) – granted for scientific research or scientific teaching
- Technician (Tecnico) – granted to technical personnel in Mexican companies
- Family Members (Familiares) – applies to spouses and/or direct blood descendants (sons, daughters, nephews, grandchildren and brothers/sisters)
- Artists and Athletes (Artistas y Deportistas)
- Assimilated Individuals (Asimilados) – granted to those who do not fit into any of the preceding categories but are assimilated (fit in) to Mexico and will perform some licit, honest and productive activity in Mexico, or for those that are the spouse of or descendent of a Mexican national.
To apply for an FM2 visa you do not need to have held an FM3 visa before, and the years you have lived in Mexico with an FM3 visa do not automatically count for the qualification period for permanent residency. If you intend to stay in Mexico for a long time it is therefore advisable to apply for an FM2 visa as soon as possible, although the application process is more complicated than for an FM3 visa.
You can apply for an FM2 visa while in Mexico with an FMT or FM3 visa. Upon receiving your FM2 immigrant status you will receive a document that serves like a "foreigner's passport" that allows you to pass through Mexican borders like a Mexican citizen.
Can you work in Mexico with an FM2 visa?
If your immigration status is "no inmigrante" or "inmigrante" (non-resident immigrant), you need to get permission from the Mexican Immigrations Office (Instituto Nacional de Migración – INM) before you can work in an area that is different from the one that you were authorised for. For more information check our articles on work permits or go to www.inm.gob.mx .
Permanent residence (inmigrado)
After having lived in Mexico for 5 years with an FM2 visa you can apply for a permanent resident status (inmigrado) which entitles you to full rights and responsibilities of Mexican citizens (i.e. IMSS sickness pay and income tax payment), except for the right to vote. As an inmigrado, you also have the right to work in Mexico.

What exactly do I need to add Uconnect to my Media Center 430? Basically that is the non navigation Media Center.
I have ordered part #82211877 Uconnect module but the instructions only reference the RES, REQ, REN radios.
Now it looks like if you have a RER Media Center with Navigation all you need is a microphone and the RER and REN look very similar.
Additionally does it really need to programmed with the Star Scan?
There have been conflicting post I found in my searches. The MOPAR.com web site there is no mention of a Star scan requirement where they specifically state it is required for adding remote start.
I have a theory that the Star scan only updates the sales codes so these components are under warranty.
I am hoping for responses from anyone who has successfully added this feature.
Thank you!
How can you tell which radio you have? My window sticker says Media Center 430 CD/DVD/HDD. When I press the telephone it says uconnect is not available. Somewhere I have seen a uconnect cord for $99 or $199. I can't remember. Will that make my radio work or is that just for the NAV radios that have uconnect working. Every time I turn on the radio it says uconnect. If I can't get it to work, are the taunting me? If it says it, it should be an upgrade, don't you think?
One would think that there would be a mic that could be added in the car that didn't need the mirror? Although, I miss the self dimming mirror that was in my trade (01 Sebring Convert.) Also mis the compass, the trip computer and garage door opener. Guess that is how they keep the SE's so affordable.

TEAMS: Washington Nationals
Davey Johnson has been chosen as the NL Manager of the Year after guiding the Washington Nationals to the best record in the major leagues. Johnson easily won Tuesday in voting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Johnson, who turns 70 in January, was picked for the second time. He was the AL's top manager in 1997 while with Baltimore - that honor came hours after he resigned in a feud with Orioles owner Peter Angelos. Washington won its second-ever major postseason award. Bryce Harper was voted NL Rookie of the Year on Monday. The AL Manager of the Year was to be announced later Tuesday. Washington went 98-64 this year, taking over the NL East lead in late May and staying in first place the rest of the way.

Maroon PROne Love FoundationMEDIA RELEASE
ONE LOVE FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2013 YEARDLEY REYNOLDS LOVE UNSUNG HERO AWARD FINALISTS--Five Women, Five Men from Division I NCAA Lacrosse Programs Recognized for Dedication, Community Service, Leadership and Kindness--Baltimore, Md. – The One Love Foundation in honor of Yeardley Reynolds Love, today announced its finalists for the 2013 Yeardley Reynolds Love ("YRL") Unsung Hero Award. Established in 2011, the YRL Unsung Hero Award celebrates the selfless acts of initiative and commitment performed by Division I lacrosse players. These outstanding student-athletes are recognized based on the following criteria: dedication, integrity, humility, hard work, community service, leadership, kindness and sportsmanship. The award winners (one female, one male) will be announced in late-May, leading up to the culmination of the NCAA lacrosse season.Formerly given to lacrosse players in the ACC Conference, the award became open to all Division I programs this year. The award recognizes accomplishments of student-athletes who help their team achieve success in ways that may not be measured in goals, saves or ground balls. The honor is meaningful because it places value on characteristics that are often undervalued in the competitively charged environment of college athletics. "We would like to thank every lacrosse program that submitted a nomination," said Sharon Robinson, a member of the YRL Unsung Hero Award selection committee. "We were so impressed with the student-athletes that were nominated and wish we could reward them all. It is so reassuring to see how these future leaders are contributing to their communities in a positive manner. Our goal is to continue growing this award as well as its prestige in college athletics, so we can celebrate the good in college athletics and continue to honor Yeardley's legacy."Five women and five men have been selected as finalists for the 2013 YRL Unsung Hero Award. These finalists will be represented on the award's website, http://www.JoinOneLove.org/UnsungHeroes, and in the June issue of Inside Lacrosse magazine, the award's media partner.Photo requests for each nominee can be made to Chris Daley at email@example.com's Finalists (alphabetical):Jackie MercerSchool: Temple UniversityYear: SeniorPosition: Midfield/AttackHometown: Sewell, N.J.Jackie is described as a player filled with passion for lacrosse, for teammates, for play, and for life. Temple Lacrosse partners with the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation, which has given Jackie the opportunity to form relationships with critically-ill children and their families. She often leads the way in organizing Alex's Lemonade Stands, play dates, cards, phone calls and more to their adoptees. After suffering two season ending knee injuries in her junior and senior year, Jackie continues to be a huge contributor on the field for Temple, and has also inspired her teammates to be the best they can be from the sideline.--Ellen ShaffreySchool: The College of William & MaryYear: SophomorePosition: AttackHometown: Charlottesville, Va.Ellen dedicates her life to making a difference on and off of the field by her relentless hard work. A 4.0 student at William & Mary, Ellen is known for being a well rounded student-athlete. Outside of lacrosse, Ellen volunteers her time at the University of Virginia conducting research and working on analyzing data to improve clinical care of patients post surgery. She is pursuing an opportunity next semester to work at a health clinic to get an up-close and personal experience with medicine and patients. Ellen is a leader not only by example, but with her words of encouragement and competitiveness. In the game of lacrosse, she is always striving for excellence by training outside of practice to work on her stick skills, shooting, body language and vocal strengths as a leader.--Molly ShawhanSchool: University of Notre DameYear: JuniorPosition: DefenseHometown: Fulton, Md.Molly's community service extends far and wide from South Bend, to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Uganda. She spent two weeks in the summer of 2012 in Uganda teaching lacrosse to young women in order to help instill values of confidence and independence. While in Uganda, Molly and her fellow student-athletes also helped build a school and assist the people living there in everyday life. During her time in South Bend, Molly is a part of the Student-Athlete Advisory Counsel (SAAC) where she has assisted in a variety of service projects including the Irish Experience League, Pediatric Christmas Party and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation fundraising walk. Molly played in all 16 regular season games for the Irish this season and has been a solid contributor throughout her playing career.--Zoe SkinnerSchool: University of North CarolinaYear: JuniorPosition: DefenseHometown: Baltimore, Md.Zoe leads many community service projects and pushes her teammates behind-the-scenes. Last summer, she spent time in Vietnam with the Atlantic Coast Conference Student-Athletes Coach for College Teacher program, teaching English and coaching volleyball to 5th grade children in Southern Vietnam, an experience she calls one of the most enriching of her lifetime. Skinner is also the women's lacrosse liaison with Carolina Athletics Outreach in which she coordinates the team's volunteer efforts with UNC Hospitals, Murdoch Development Center, New Hope Elementary School, Share Your Christmas Foundation and UNCLaxForKellie. She does the same on the field, tirelessly working behind-the-scenes to improve her teammates in practice. --Alex ZaugraSchool: University of DelawareYear: SophomorePosition: GoalkeeperHometown: Medford Lakes, N.J.Alex has played a tremendous role in reconnecting alumni with the Delaware Lacrosse family, first as a mentee in their mentoring program, and next as the leader for the program's Love the Game Around the World project. Last year as a freshman, Alex worked with her former mentor, now alumni, to launch an idea that turned into action by the current Alumni Board. Alex rallied her teammates around the service efforts of an alumni who is currently serving the mission efforts of the Musana orphanage in Uganda, Africa. Delaware now provides shelter, meals, educational opportunities and care for two orphans and helping to spread the game of lacrosse worldwide.--Men's Finalists (alphabetical):Jason CraneSchool: Loyola UniversityYear: FreshmanPosition: DefenseHometown: Pasadena, Md.In his first year at Loyola University, Jason missed much of fall practice with a hand injury, but he quickly became close with his teammates and coaches, and showed leadership qualities early on. Displaying initiative, courage and leadership in December, he reached out to the director of youth lacrosse in Newtown, Conn. to ask how Loyola Lacrosse could assist in the wake of the tragic shooting that claimed the lives of 26 people at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Jason then organized a clinic, gathering 13 of his teammates during their winter break to travel to Newtown and put on a free clinic for the youth in town. On the field, Jason has stepped in to a role on the Greyhounds' rope unit as a long-stick midfielder in his first collegiate season.--Frankie KellySchool: University of North CarolinaYear: JuniorPosition: MidfieldHometown: Lutherville, Md. Frankie brings a mix of academic prowess, faith, impeccable character and love of the game to North Carolina Lacrosse. Even though he is not the most vocal guy on the team, he is a respected leader in the locker room because of his overall enthusiasm and positive attitude. Frankie volunteers his time for team community outreach activities such as reading books at elementary schools, building houses with Habitat for Humanity and visiting patients at UNC hospitals. Additionally, he spearheaded an effort among all UNC varsity athletes to donate extra soap and shampoo bottles they acquire at hotels on road trips to the local homeless shelter in Chapel Hill. Frankie is a versatile athlete and beyond willing to do whatever it takes to help his team win games. --Jason NobleSchool: Cornell UniversityYear: JuniorPosition: DefenseHometown: Orangeville, OntarioJason embodies the student-athlete who works hard to achieve success through great character, and leadership by example. In addition to the lacrosse team, he is a member of the Sphinx Head Honor Society, a group that recognizes members of the Cornell senior class who have given their time and passion to the university during their undergraduate years. Jason's commitment to community service includes involvement in numerous projects such as the 21 Run and Save the Day 3 vs. 3 youth lacrosse tournament. Last fall, Jason helped with the Oswego, N.Y. flood relief efforts after one of the worst floods in that area's history. A co-captain of the lacrosse team, Jason was awarded the team's "Hard Hat" for the 2012 season given each year to a junior that the coaching staff feels demonstrates a blue-collar approach to the game of lacrosse; driven and selfless, not always the most talented player on the field, but consistently the hardest worker. --Shane WarnerSchool: Binghamton UniversityYear: SeniorPosition: MidfieldHometown: North Rockland, N.Y.Shane has not only been a consistent four-year performer on the field for the Bearcats, he also has been a standout in the classroom and community. This past summer he spent over two weeks in Uganda with the Fields of Growth grassroots lacrosse program.

On campus, he is a peer educator who speaks to various varsity teams on campus about current issues, including balancing athletics and academics and the social responsibilities of college student-athletes. A faceoff specialist, he puts his team and teammates first. Wilkes is a three-time Ohio State Scholar-Athlete, as well as an Academic All-Big Ten and Academic All-ECAC choice.--About the One Love Foundation:The One Love Foundation was co-founded by Sharon and Lexie Love in May 2010 to honor their daughter and sister, Yeardley Reynolds Love, a University of Virginia student-athlete who was killed by her ex-boyfriend.

Kyūshū National Museum
Built into the tranquil hills of Dazaifu and reached through a colour-shifting tunnel, this striking structure (built in 2005) resembles a massive space station for the arts.
Built into the tranquil hills of Dazaifu and reached through a colour-shifting tunnel, this striking structure (built in 2005) resembles a massive space station for the arts.
Chūson-ji was established in AD 850 by the priest Ennin, although it was the Ōshu Fujiwara family who expanded the complex in the 12th century. A total of 300 buildings with 40 temples was constructed. Ironically, in the face of the family's grand scheme to build a Buddhist utopia, Hiraizumi was never far from tragedy: a massive fire ravaged nearly everything in 1337.
One of Kyoto's hidden pleasures, this temple was founded in 1680 to honour the priest Hōnen. It's a lovely, secluded temple with carefully raked gardens set back in the woods. The temple buildings include a small gallery where frequent exhibitions featuring local and international artists are held.
At the foot of Bizan, the 280m-high summit at the southwestern end of Shinmachibashi-dōri, Awa Odori Kaikan features extensive exhibits relating to the Awa-odori Matsuri and dance. The dance is performed at 2pm, 3pm and 4pm daily (with an additional performance at 11am on weekends), with a nightly performance at 8pm (afternoon/evening performances ¥500/700).
This holy shrine at the top of Osore-zan is a somewhat terrifying, strangely atmospheric place that attracts people in mourning or those seeking to commune with the dead. Several stone statues of the child-guardian deity Jizō overlook hills of craggy, sulphur-strewn rocks and hissing vapour.
Once a shōgunal palace extending into the area now occupied by the fish market, this sparse garden is one of Tokyo's finest. The features a large duck pond with an island that's home to a charming tea pavilion, as well as some wonderfully manicured trees (black pine, Japanese apricot, hydrangeas etc), some of which are hundreds of years old.
Shōdo-shima was famous for its soy beans long before olives arrived, and several old soy-sauce companies are still in business here (as frequent whiffs around the island will remind you). Marukin has a small museum with displays of the sauce-making process, old implements, photos, and interesting facts you never knew about the ubiquitous brown stuff.
One of the best parts of Naha is this neighbourhood, a centre of ceramic production from 1682, when Ryūkyū kilns were consolidated here by royal decree. Most shops along this atmospheric street sell all the popular Okinawan ceramics, including shiisā (lion-dog roof guardians) and containers for serving awamori, the local firewater.
This is the lavish estate of Ōkōchi Denjirō, an actor famous for his samurai films. The sprawling stroll gardens may well be the most lovely in all of Kyoto, particularly when you consider the brilliant views eastwards across the city. The house and teahouse are also sublime. Be sure to follow all the trails around the gardens (the standard route is clearly marked).
Ōdōri Kōen is the long block-wide park that splits Sapporo into its north-south grid. Fully 13 blocks (1.5km) long, with the TV Tower at its eastern end, the park plays host to the city's major events and festivals. Beautifully manicured flower gardens match the green lawns, overhanging trees and the plentiful artwork, fountains, statues and benches to relax on.
An essential Nagasaki experience, this sombre place recounts the city's destruction and loss of life through photos and artefacts, including mangled rocks, trees, furniture, pottery and clothing, a clock stopped at 11.02 (the hour of the bombing), first-hand accounts from survivors and stories of heroic relief efforts.
A National Treasure, Japan's oldest standing castle is said to have originated as a fort in 1440. The current donjon (main keep) built atop a 40m rise beside the Kiso-gawa dates from 1537 and has resisted war, earthquake and restoration, remaining the penultimate example of Momoyama-era architecture.
Adjacent to Hachikō Plaza is arguably one of the coolest intersections you will ever see in your life. Made famous in the West following Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation, Shibuya Crossing is remarkable for its throngs of people, blazing neon lights and enormous video screens, which sometimes display live videos of the street scene below.
North of the hypocentre, the Peace Park is presided over by the 10-tonne bronze Nagasaki Peace Statue , designed in 1955 by Kitamura Seibo. It also includes the dove-shaped Fountain of Peace (1969) and the Peace Symbol Zone, a sculpture garden with contributions on the theme of peace from around the world.
This expansive public park has been shaped over the centuries by three castle moats, and landscaped with overhanging cherry trees (more than 5000 in total) that bloom in late April or early May. It's a 20-minute walk from Hirosaki Station, or take the Dote-machi Loop Bus (¥100, 20 minutes), which stops in front of the park.
The Kikuya family were merchants rather than samurai. As official merchants to the daimyō their wealth and connections allowed them to build a house well above their station. This house dates from 1604 and has a fine gate and attractive gardens, and numerous interesting displays of items used in daily life, including an old public phone box.

This class is a theoretical class on footwear structure, resources for materials, measuring your feet, and a sketching/gathering inpsiration session. Get inspired and design your shoes-. 1.5 hours. After this class, you will be so motivated to create your designs, and to gather materials for them for the next "Pattern Making Class".
Coming soon...
* student & teacher intro
* measure feet
* learn components of shoes and language
* sketch your designs
* review material and retailer list to see what you need to purchase for your designs
please bring: pencil and notebook/paper.
Coming Soon...
I got hooked on shoe making through Emily Putterman who still teaches at many design schools, like Parsons/New School, Pratt, JCC. She is "The Shoe Making Teacher" of New York. (Now there are many more...) I followed her around town with her classes. She taught in a way you can make shoes at home. So I kept on making at home.
Once deep into making, you want to learn more to perfect the craft. I learned and am still learning from the best shoe makers and pattern makers.
The circle of shoe makers has been growing, and the number of machines in my posession also grew. After working with and producing shoes in China, came to a realization of the first love of "making" shoes. Now I work out of Brooklyn Shoe Space, making custom order shoes.

sion of U.S. systems, we focus attention on the current revision plans for the Standard Occupational Classification. This revision promises a number of important advances over existing systems, including the provision for assimilating new occupations into the system on an ongoing basis.
The International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO) has three objectives: (1) to facilitate international communication about occupations through its use internationally; (2) to provide international occupational data for research, decision making, and other activities; and (3) to serve as a model, but not a replacement, for countries developing or revising their national occupation classifications. The development of this structure was based on the recommendations and decisions of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth International Conferences of Labour Statisticians, held at the International Labour Office, Geneva, in 1982 and 1987. The underlying source data consist of population censuses, statistical surveys, and administrative records maintained at the national level. ISCO-88 is the 1988 revision of the 1968 version of the classification system (International Labour Office, 1990).
The ISCO system uses two key concepts: job and skill. Job is defined as "a set of tasks and duties executed, or meant to be executed, by one person." Skill is defined as "the ability to carry out the tasks and duties of a given job." The ISCO-88 structure is hierarchical, with 10 major groups at the top, 28 submajor groups, 116 minor groups, and 390 unit groups.
Although ISCO-88 was not intended to be the single structure that would fit all nations, many nations have adopted the ISCO system with little or no modification (Elias, 1993). Western nations have tended to make more substantial modifications to ISCO-88 or to devise their own structures (Wootton, 1993). Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands are primary examples. Table 5.2 presents comparative information about ISCO-88 and its adaptation for use in those countries. Shown are the key classification concepts, the number of levels in the hierarchical ladder, and the number of occupational groups in each level. All of the systems have fewer than a dozen broad

The BBC series Merlin, which airs on Syfy in the United States, will come to an end after its fifth season, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The final episode will air on Christmas on BBC One.
Ben Daniels, Bradley James and Miranda Raison
The battle to reclaim Camelot highlights Friday's season finale of Merlin (10/9c, Syfy). The episode features daring rescues, a rekindled romance and at least one valiant death. But perhaps the most significant moment is the introduction of an iconic element of the Camelot mythos — the legendary sword Excalibur.
Following last week's loss of the castle to Morgana (Katie McGrath), Arthur (Bradley James) doubts his worthiness as the king of Camelot. To help get him back on track, Merlin (Colin Morgan) introduces him to the legend of Excalibur, explaining that only the true king of Camelot will have the strength to pull the fabled sword out of the stone where it was embedded years ago by Bruta, the first king.
Check out this exclusive clip from Friday's season finale, "The Sword in the Stone, Part 2."

RIVERSIDE --- California Baptist University blanked BYU-Hawaii, 3-0, on Saturday, bouncing back after a tough road loss earlier in the week.
The Lancers got on the board 20 seconds into the game and then again within the first 15 minutes to put the Seasiders away early at home.
"We always want to start well and establish the tone of the game, so it was nice to get going that quickly," said CBU Head Coach Kristen St. Clair. "We wanted to focus on our execution and performance and that put us in a really good spot."
Kimberly Allard scored the first goal of the game just 20 seconds in, as the Lancers immediately drove down the field and struck. Lindsey Vesling sent a ball into the box from wide right, which was flicked on by the head of Bernadette Witz to a waiting Allard on the far side.
From there it was the Kelly Jenks aerial attack that did the rest of the damage for CBU, as Jenks struck with a header in the 12th minute and then again in the 83rd.
Vesling again served a ball in from the right in the 12th minute for her second assist and Angelique Carrillo chipped a ball towards Jenks in the middle of the box for the late goal.
"We've been working on our aerial presence and Kelly is a big part of that," said St. Clair. "She was big time today."
Rosie Nakata did her part to keep a clean sheet in the contest for CBU, making a pair of dazzling saves midway through the second half.
The Lancers had seven shots on goal in the game to four for BYUH. Jenks took a total of six shots for the Lancers on the day. Her pair of scores gives her six on the season.
"Our offense was sharp today," said St. Clair. "We needed to be a little better on the finishing end and I would certainly say we cleaned that up today. The girls did a great job."
CBU moves to 4-4 overall, 3-1 in the PacWest with the win, while the Seasiders fall to 1-3-1, 0-2.

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – Some lingering morning clouds are the only hiccup in what will be a seasonable and sunny day here in the Wilmington area. Northeasterly breezes Monday, brought on by high pressure, will keep high temperatures in the mid 50s despite the sunny afternoon conditions.
Tuesday some clouds will likely stream back on shore as an inverted trough slides back toward the coast. This will add some small rain chances and keep temperatures in the low 60s, but as we head into the middle of the week the warm-up begins. Highs move into the upper 60s for the end of the week, pumping into the 70s by the weekend. Rain chances accompany the warmer weather – with the highest chances Thursday as an area of low pressure slides north out of the Gulf.

About Jason
Jason Mattera is a two-time New York Times bestselling author, served as the youngest editor of a national periodical, Human Events, and hosts "The Jason Mattera Show" on the legendary News Talk Radio 77 WABC in New York City. He is also the founder of Daily Surge.
Mattera's latest book Hollywood Hypocrites: The Devastating Truth About Obama's Biggest Backers (Simon & Schuster) landed on the New York Times bestseller list, creating widespread buzz. Mark Levin hailed Hollywood Hypocrites as "eye-popping, exhaustively, researched, and absolutely hilarious" and the late Andrew Breitbart called it a "barrage of body blows to Hollywood's holier-than-thou limousine liberals."
In 2010, Mattera's debut book, Obama Zombies: How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My Generation (Simon & Schuster) landed at #14 on the New York Times bestseller list. Rush Limbaugh, who endorsed the book twice on air, dubbed Mattera an official "Rush baby."
Ann Coulter has crowned Mattera a "national treasure," Michelle Malkin says his work is a "heat-seeking missile aimed at the Cult of Obama," and POLITICO named him Washington D.C.'s "bad boy reporter."
Mattera has appeared on virtually every major talk radio and television program since 2005, including: The O'Reilly Factor, Hannity, Fox & Friends, Your World with Neil Cavuto, Imus, Varney & Co., C-SPAN, CNN, The Laura Ingraham Show, The Mark Levin Show, and hundreds more.
Well-known for his trademark "ambush interviews," Mattera's video takedowns of top liberals including Vice President Joe Biden, comedian Chris Rock, NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg, Senator Al Franken, and former Congressman Barney Frank have gone viral and become Internet legends.
Mattera's a Brooklyn native who currently resides in Washington, D.C.
When he's not busy punking liberals, Jason enjoys eating organic foods, recycling his trash, and watching reruns of "The League."

Let a reverend run in my Adidas
He'll see that despite all his dislikes, I am like Jesus
Don't follow 10 commandments, but I don't seem to break
To many of them either, try to understand me

Soul uses clever wordplay here to say he shouldn't be judged. Let a Reverend take a walk in his shoes and he'll see that Soul is a good man
Plays on Reverend Run from Run-D.M.C. who popularized the Adidas shoes
This also connects back to the idea that he's a god MC

Two great players have decided to join Mariano Rivera in calling it a career at the end of this season. The first was arguably the last star produced by the Montreal Expos organization, Vladimir Guerrero, and the second is one of the all-time greats with the Colorado Rockies, Todd Helton. Helton is calling it quits at the end of this season and will go down as one of the few players who played with the same franchise his entire career.
The Blake St. Bombers were born in 1995 when Colorado moved from Mile High Stadium, where it played its first two seasons, to Coors Field. The Rockies, at that time, were the most successful franchise ever. Their first year attendance was nearly 4.5 million - a record for all pro sports. They clinched the National League wild card spot on the final day of the 1995 season, coming back from an 8-2 deficit to win 10-9 and becoming the quickest expansion team ever to make the post-season - doing so in just their third year of existence.
The 1995 team featured the likes of Andres Galarraga - who won the National League batting title in 1993 with a .370 batting average - Dante Bichette, Vinny Castilla, Ellis Burks and Larry Walker. This team could flat out hit, aided and abetted by the rarified Denver air that helped balls carry further and flattened out even the best of curve balls.
Helton joined the party in 1997. He had been a two-sport star at the University of Tennessee. He was the starting quarterback with the Volunteers until he was supplanted by some guy named Peyton Manning. They are still good friends to this day and ironically for the past two years have played pro in the same city.
Helton has had a spectacular career. He became the 96th player in Major League history to crack 2,500 hits and he leads in seven all-time Rockies hitting categories. Number 17 has a career average of .317 and has hit 367 homers over 2,235 games.
Helton is a three-time Gold Glover at first base, but these are the numbers that really stick out. He has over 2,500 hits, 550 doubles, over 350 homers and a .310 or higher batting average. The only other match in Major League history to accomplish that was St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Famer Stan "the Man" Musial.
For the record, Helton's final appearance in Toronto came in a three game series from June 17 through the 19. It was right in the middle of the Blue Jays' record-setting 11 game win streak. The Jays swept the series and outscored the Rockies 15-5. Helton played the first two games at first base for the Rockies and was rested by skipper Walt Weiss in the third. He went a combined 1-for-7 with a walk and two strikeouts. His final hit in Toronto came in the second inning of game one; a line drive single to centre fielder Colby Ramus.
The man who gave up that hit was Josh Johnson. This night was arguably his best game as a Blue Jay. Johnson pitched seven and a third shutout innings, gave up just five hits, walked two and struck out 10 but didn't get the decision. The Jays rallied late and beat the Rockies 2-0.
Not counting this year, in 20 seasons, the Rockies have had only five winning records. Still, they've made it to the post-season three times as a wild card and got all the way to the World Series in 2007 where they were swept by Boston in four straight.
Though attendance has slipped since the early glory years, Colorado still averages over 2 million and has only slipped below that figure once in 20 years. At one point, they had a stretch of 203 straight sell-outs.
Helton wasn't with the Rockies in 1995 and 96 but he can still lay claim to being part of one of the most dominant hitting teams to come down the pike. Colorado lead the National League in hitting every season from 1995 to 2002, led in homeruns from 1995-97 and again in '99. They also led in runs scored in 1995-97 and again from 2000 to 2001. Yes, Helton played his entire home career at Coors Field but on balance you can't deny the man's Hall of Fame credentials. Former Helton teammate Jason Giambi is in the twilight of his career right now with Cleveland. With two weeks to go in the season, the Indians are just a half game back of Texas and Tampa Bay for a wild card spot. If Cleveland gets in, Giambi will be going to the playoffs for the ninth time with his fourth different team. The Baltimore Orioles went into Sunday's play leading the American League in walks. The next five behind them in order were Boston, Rays, A's, Cleveland and the Tigers. The common factor - four of the six are holding playoff positions at the moment. Cleveland is just a half game out and Baltimore is still alive at three and a half out. The Blue Jays should take note of this if they already haven't.

Everything's coming up Kate Moss this morning.
First, over the holiday weekend the Guardian reported that the iconic supermodel will be honored at the British Fashion Awards today. Moss will be recognized for, well, being so damn stylish and starring in almost every young woman's inspiration board, and for her super successful 25-year career as a model, which famously elevated petite waiflike girls to sex symbol status.
And speaking of her sexy image, the soon-to-be 40-year-old's much anticipated issue of Playboy, which also celebrates the magazine's 60th anniversary, hits stands this week! But before it does, The Cut has images and a sneak peek of the 18-page spread, shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, in which Moss wears bunny years and, as usual, kills the game. And according to the article, Marc Jacobs is creating limited-edition T-Shirts featuring images from the shoot. Sign us up!

the subculture of a conservative midwest town
A gay friend of mine living in Charleston, South Carolina once told me he could do anything he liked there so long as he was wearing a tuxedo. A similar thing could be said about the conservative midwestern city of Grand Rapids, Michigan; except it should be rephrased as you can do whatever you like as long as it's after dark. This city that has elected some of the most conservative tea party darlings to congress, where admonishments against working on Sundays still exist and nasty notes might await those brave enough to put an Obama sticker on their car, is a fertile garden for the growth of diverse and creative subcultures that taunt the genteel and mainstream folks that managed to shape the straight-laced reputation of this city. In other words, Bland Rapids has a dark side.
You might not see it as you walk through the downtown in the daytime. There are no posters covering telephone poles like acne, no debris of nighttime revelry and no shiftless teens with pierced noses panhandling on the corners. True to stereotype, this is a population of polite and overly considerate Midwesterners. They tidy up after themselves. But how does a city so religious that it earned the nickname "G-Reusalem*" spawn such a vibrant and diverse counter culture? Good friend and local artist, Melissa Duimstra provided the clue. She told me that when she was growing up in the Christian Reformed Church she would often be told that thinking about sin was as bad as committing it.** However, she came to the revelation that if she was already thinking about sin she might as well be doing it as she was going to hell anyway. Several other creatives have told me similar stories about their severe and traditional upbringings pushing them towards a more liberal outlook on life.
There is something symbiotic about darkness and creativity; darkness presents voids that need to be explained. The mysterious unknown of the night sparks the imagination and terror. Countless bedtime stories have been created to ward off the fears of youngsters who are afraid of what's under the bed. Darkness defines the light as well. Shadows help artists create the illusion of space. Shadows add drama. Shadows hide imperfections. Shadows give respite from the hot glare of the all seeing eye of the sun. Darkness is often maligned as evil or ignorance, but to many, especially those who do not fit the approved mold of proscribed behavior it can mean freedom.
Darkness can also be enlightening. Freud taught us that our dreams can reveal our most deeply buried desires and obsessions. It can force us to drop our own masks and confront who we really are; that wild savage that we locked away long ago in order to function within polite society. It's this savage, this untamed id that I see trying to assert itself in the diverse vernacular activities in my adopted hometown.

I'll make something else now...
For the record I am indifferent to the software. I have no problem with people wanting to create animation with it for fun as long as those with loftier ambitions aren't letting their skills stagnate. I spent a lot of time with 3D movie maker as a kid because I didn't know how else I could create animation and I really wish I had discovered flash sooner. Brad Bird began his first animated film at 11 years old so you're never too young to start!
So please remember that my animated counterpart is a caricature in more ways than one; I didn't really jump on a horse when Skyrim was announced and I'm not about to go postal on someone who wants to use some gimmicky animation software, just consider the alternatives.

This is such a good animation, I really loved how you actually had an entrance into it and completely decked the Go Animate guy. It was hilarious and also really informative :D

@JonDonnis brought my attention to this great illusion …..
(you may have to click on it to get it to animate)…. like it?
It may be something I ate, but I felt a little nausea as I watched the cigarette roll back and forth. Yet, it is a very cool illusion!
No, I don't like anything with cigarettes on it
A bit unrealistic. You don't normally see a cigarette sliding along a wall.
It works on me; even though I know what's happening I can't stop my brain from being fooled unless I cover up the picture above & below the ciggies.
Looks like they'e Marlboro cigs. That takes me back.
Was that cig a Kool? (An American brand of cigs' get it?)
Thanks for ones marvelous posting! I truly enjoyed reading it, you will be a great author.
I will ensure that I bookmark your blog and may come back in the
foreseeable future. I want to encourage continue
your great writing, have a nice afternoon!
We're a group of volunteers and starting a new scheme in our community. Your site provided us with useful information to work on. You've done a formidable
task and our entire group will probably be thankful to you.

The opportunity to enroll at NYU Washington, DC for the spring 2014 semester is still available, learn about the semester courses, internships, and how to apply.
Additional opportunities to study at NYU during January are listed on the NYU January Term web page.
JTerm 2015 information will be posted in the fall 2014 semester.
Tuition and fees (4 credits): TBA
Housing, $TBA (arrival January TBA, departure January TBA)
Housing is guaranteed/required, students whose family live within commuting distance may be exempt from housing. A limited number of single rooms is available for an additional charge.
Dr. Paul C. Light is NYU Wagner's Paulette Goddard Professor of Public Service and founding principal investigator of the Global Center for Public Service, Before joining NYU, Dr. Light served as the Douglas Dillon Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, founding director of its Center for Public Service, and vice president and director of the Governmental Studies Program. He has served previously as director of the Public Policy Program at the Pew Charitable Trusts and associate dean and professor of public affairs at the University of Minnesota's Hubert Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs. He is the author of 25 books, including works on social entrepreneurship, the nonprofit sector, federal government reform, public service, and the baby boom.
His books include the award-winning Thickening Government and The Tides of Reform. He received the 2010 Herbert Simon award from the American Political Science Association for A Government Ill Executed: The Decline of the Federal Service and How to Reverse It. The award was for the most important book on public administration in the preceding three-to-five years. He is also a co-author of a best-selling American government textbook, Government by the People. His research interests include: bureaucracy, civil service, Congress, entitlement programs, executive branch, government reform, nonprofit effectiveness, organizational change, and the political appointment process.
Presidents have enormous power to create social impact. They help set the national agenda of problems, use their words and actions to convince the public and Congress to act, provide legislative solutions, and execute the laws. They face limits, too, including constitutional checks and balances, polarization, and what some experts call a dysfunctional Congress. This course will examine these and other issues that affect the president's ability to create durable social change. The course will also introduce students to the presidential policy process, and explore emerging doubts that presidents have any effect at all on solving the "wicked" problems that face the nation and world. Students will be asked to provide detailed advice to the president on a social problem of their choice, and will meet with policymakers in Congress, the executive branch, lobbying and polling firms, polling and interest groups to assess the key issues raised in the course. They will also present their proposals for presidential action to selected policymakers for review.
Current NYU students from any undergraduate college/school may enroll in this course via Albert using class #1104.
Visiting students (students currently matriculated at another US accredited institution) who would like to enroll should complete the online application (select January 2014, Washington, DC and your preferred course) for consideration, and send an official transcript including all college level work completed to:
NYU Office of Global Programs

Finally, things seem to be working themselves out. 'Gray' has been confirmed as part of The Bath Fringe 2012 by the organisers; marketing is already underway, and with just over a month before we open. But there are still some hiccoughs to sort out.
One of our cast dropped out, leaving us short one - fairly important - character. But we've bounced back from that, too and our third (and hopefully final) audition will be held at the end of the month.
All-in-all, we should be well on our way to a stellar production, and a landmark performance for a brand new theatre company.
Like our facebook page to check up our events and our twitter feed (@steamproofUK) for updates on the production and videos of the rehearsal process.

Wait, what?
Yes, Northwestern is investigating a fraternity after they hired a group of midget wrestlers to make the WWE look tame by comparison at a recruitment event.
The event was held on Jan. 8 at a Delta Upsilon recruiting session, where a group called the Half Pint Brawlers performed a show during which they simulated sex, jumped off a ladder onto one another and stapled each other in the face, among other acts depicted in photographs and videos e-mailed to the student newspaper. In the videos of the event (which unfortunately I can't find) attendees cheered and chanted, urging the performers to "Hit him with a chair!" and "Do it again!"
You can see some of what the Half-Pint Brawlers have done on tour here (sort of NSFW). John Cena would have no chance against them.
If you're wondering how this is legal, then you obviously don't know much about midget/dwarf wrestling. It's totally cool for midgets and dwarves to staple each other in the face. In fact, it's encouraged. It's illegal, however, to participate in dwarf tossing. But midget tossing is cool, right? Uh, sure. Glad we got that cleared up.
And just so you can sleep easy at night, Puppet the Psycho Dwarf was very chill about everything.
"Little Justice (another performer) and myself had a great time at the event," he wrote. "The kids really seemed to enjoy the show."Anyway, the frat may have violated NU's hazing policy, and could be in serious trouble. Which is pretty much every week for most frats, so I wouldn't be too worried if I were them.
And don't let this incident faze you. It's not like Northwestern's been involved in other questionable athletic-related hazing events of late.
Oh, wait. Yes they have.

In November 2009, a self-proclaimed Archaeology Lifer found herself employed as a Flight Attendant. She's not sure how it happened. No one really is. Here's what happened next...
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I've been living a three year long, modern version of Pride and Prejudice, and I've just realised that Mr Darcy may have been a bit of a jerk at first but overall he's actually not a huge tool and may, in fact, be completely perfect.
Elizabeth Bennett (aka Hannah, the idealistic twit who reads too much) is such a dumbass.
My horoscope (Pisces) for today was:
This is a good time for solitude, quiet, or contemplative activities and rest. Your spirits may be temporarily depressed, so take some time for yourself. Others may criticize you or show little emotional warmth at this time.
More or less, this was pretty accurate (eerily so in fact). However they SHOULD have mentioned something along the lines of "Be careful while driving jetbridges this evening, in case you hit your favourite rampie in the face and he has to go to the hospital for stitches."
Just saying.
Ok, entirely NOT my fault, but I still feel pretty bad about it. Therefor, BEER.

I'm not really a PvPer, but I think I should mention something regarding points 5 and 3:
* 5
There's a situation I step into BGs against my will - when some non-PvP achievement requires a PvP step. Whenever that occurs, I enter the BG to do the achievement; I'm not playing to help the team, to kill the opponents, or even to win: I'm going to make a beeline to whatever task I need to do for the achiev, and only help my team if/when it helps me get the acievement. In this situation I make sure to let my team know that I'm playing just for the achievement, and I actually want the rest of my team to complain about me; the more players complaining about achievement-hunting PvErs ruining their games, the lower the chance of Blizzard doing more such achievements.
Also, whenever there is a PvP piece that would help my PvE gear - and is easier to get than the PvE equivalent - I go after it. The difference is that, in this situation, since I'm playing of my own freewill, I will do everything in my power (within reason) to help my team. Of course, even then I'm still a player with little to no PvP experience or gear.
* 3
This is the main reason I don't play WoW's PvP for fun. I actually like objective-based PvP, but I refuse to play when there is an inherent, character-based handicap - such as the gear progression in WoW.
It's not only that I don't want to play against better geared players. I also don't like facing worse geared players - it feels like I'm cheating when I feel like I won just because I had better gear. In the end, for PvP, if gear > skill, I don't want to play. Plus, I'm not really into having to organize groups to play - so Arenas and Rated BGs, where the gear disparity would be minimized, don't hold any attraction over me.
Thus, I do my PvP in other games, and I'm enthusiastically waiting for GW2 - it will feature arenas where everyone is given the same quality gear, and open world PvP where the game equalizes the power of the different characters. The absence of gear progression makes me much happier in PvP, which leads me to spend many fun hours happily blasting away at other random players.
I'd just like to point out that if you're upgrading PvE gear to PvP gear for PvE content, you're not actually upgrading, you're faking your ilvl. A 353 PvE piece is better than a 371 PvP piece as it has more USEFUL stat points. Resilience is completely useless in PvE, it ONLY affects damage caused by players, so the points allocated to Resilience on your gear is wasted, thus lowering your effective gear level. You may have more Strength, Agility, Intellect, or Spirit, but you won't be performing any better than you were in those 346 blues due to your lack of secondary stats.
Actually, Natsumi, that's not quite true. If it's a large enough ilvl difference, the extra stats will make the PvP gear a better option. Especially for Int- using classes, where Int is everything. At the point where it's 40+ levels greater, you're probably getting a boost. Although it's hard to say for sure, obviously.
Obviously, it's rare that, with VP and JP, someone would have a slot with such a large ilvl gap, but it could happen- most likely when people are just starting in Zulroics and still have a few quest greens laying around. It happens, and if you happen to have some honor lying around from leveling, buying one or two pieces of PvP gear is an acceptable solution.

Before anyone calls me an idiot, let me make a case for you. For the vast majority of specs, pvp gear is generally worse then pve gear. The one exception i know of is bears
For bears (i has mathz on my computer, on my ipod right now), agility is ridiculuously good. As such, secondary stats (esp. non mastery) arent great. Because of this, one tier higher pvp gear is actually the same as a tier of pve gear below it ( 371 is actually a tier and a half above 359 because of s9 and thus is better) qnd any higher is better. So, 384=371 gear. If the 371 ( or tier below pvp gear) has mastery and the pvp gear doesnt, the pve gear is slightly better.
If you are really persistant on calling me an idiot i will bring up math for you guys onfe im on my computer.

Natsumi that ideology is a fallacy of many PVE players, there are several PVP pieces that give several different classes upgrades that they would otherwise be starved to find. Look at Resto Druid, its almost impossible to find leather bracers with good stat's, so you could run around forever with your 333 crap or you could run 3-4 random daily BG's and pick up a 371 pvp bracer that is way better than the 333 crap you've been carrying around.
My druid tank has on 365 pvp pants which give him significantly more stam, agil, and dodge than the 346 pants I had before, being that those are the only real stats you care about as a bear unless your sacrificing 200 points of mastery for a 10 point increase to agil(which I'm not) the pvp pants are better.
Another important thing that people that only focus on PVE sometimes don't realize about PVP gear is that often you sacrifice a somewhat useless stat for your class in order to pick up significantly more of a very important stat such as Hit rating where with the PVE you might have found it almost impossible to pick up another 200 hit rating to reach hit cap, getting that one PVP piece with 190 hit on it puts you where you need to be.

A Seattle woman known as the Internet Grandma can cross one more item off her bucket list. Evelyn Kottman arrived in Las Vegas on Friday to celebrate her 103rd birthday.
Kottman last year posted on social media about wanting to celebrate her milestone birthday on the Las Vegas Strip.
Las Vegas officials decided to make her dream come true by offering her the trip of a lifetime.
When she landed at McCarran Airport on Friday afternoon, Kottman was greeted by showgirls and dancers from Thunder From Down Under. In fact, the all-male revue is on her itinerary.
In the past, Kottman has celebrated birthdays by getting a tattoo and going skydiving.
