The hotel overall is average but not worth the kind of money i paid for it. I had called the hotel couple of times ahead to make sure i have a king bed room but upon checkin was told that they have a 2 queen bed room. Had to pay additional 30$/night for a king size in the main building.
Now onto room, the first room we checked in had the shower drain almost completely blocked, since it was late night we were told it will be fixed tomorrow.
When we went to bed we realized that the mattress completely sags on one side of the bed so its like sleeping in a tub. Needless to say i had a terrible night of sleep (wife felt ok on the other side of the bed).
Anyways, next day after being out whole day we came back to the room and found the shower drain was still now fixed, so we asked to talk to the Manager, only to be told that they dont have any manager on site today (what? ). The head supervisor was a nice polite lady (Beth..i think) who had us moved to a different room which was much better.
On the plus side the rooms are decent sized and clean for most part, we did find couple of old advil capsules lying on the floor in our first room. Also the hotel is couple of miles from the canyon entrance so its convenient that way.
Next time if i have to spend this kind of money i will try to get a lodge inside the canyon.

Clothing (also called clothes) is fiber and textile material worn on the body. The wearing of clothing is mostly restricted to human beings and is a feature of nearly all human societies. The amount and type of clothing worn depends on physical, social and geographic considerations. Some clothing types can be gender specific.
Fashion in clothes has allowed wearers to express emotion or solidarity with other people for millennia. Modern Westerners have a wide choice available in the selection of their clothes. What a person chooses to wear can reflect their personality or likes.
To some, fashion is an art form. For most people though, fashion is a method of utilizing clothing, accessories and grooming to show or hide something about yourself. Fashion can be an extension of your personality, allowing you to introduce parts of your personality to the world without saying a word.

The source of scepticism concerning the EU, and the very idea of liberal democracy, is to be found elsewhere. [ more ]

After Brexit: Shock and disbelief
How the UK referendum result is being received across Europe
Opinion Will 23 June 2016 go down in history as having an equal but opposite impact to that of 9 November 1989?

Taking responsibility
Soviet crimes and Russian democracy
Justice Russia's democratic movement needs to develop a cultural and political strategy based on the following premise, writes Sergey Lebedev: that a systemic failure to deal properly with Soviet-era crimes has engendered the present-day authoritarian Russian state.

Sophie does not want to do her homework, a research report on polar bears. Bor-ing. They're big. They eat things. They're mean. What else is there to say about them anyway? As it turns out, plenty. And when a polar bear named Olafur swoops her away to the Arctic, she soon learns all about the playful bear's habits and habitat--from glacier mice to northern lights--and, against her first reservations, she even finds herself interested. When the two are swept out to sea on a glacier, Sophie's new knowledge and knack for creative thinking pay off in a big way: she calls a whale to their aid! Inspired by her journey, she's ready to return home and take another swing at her assignment, this time with gusto. The Bear Report showcases the power of curiosity and imagination to fill in any blank canvas, whether it's an incomplete homework assignment or the Arctic ice.

Sam Hudson, a reputable San Diego attorney, learns this when the authorities wrongfully convict him of the brutal rape and murder of his wife and daughter, and sends him to death row. There he awaits execution by lethal injection.
If he survives that long.
In prison, Sam fights for his life while his attorney works frantically on his appeal. It is then that he embraces the faith of his departed wife and begins to manifest supernatural abilities. Abilities which help him save lives– his own, those of his unlikely allies–and uncover the true killer's identity, unlocking the door to his exoneration.
Now a free man, Sam's newfound faith confronts him with the most insurmountable challenge yet. A challenge beyond vengeance, beyond rage, beyond anything Sam believes himself capable of: to forgive the very man who murdered his family, according to his faith. But this endeavor reveals darker secrets than either Sam or the killer could ever have imagined. Secrets that hurtle them into a fateful collision course.
BEYOND JUSTICE, a tale of loss, redemption, and the power of faith.

Sam Hudson is a modern day Job. He's had his wife and daughter murdered. His son is near death. He loses everything, but on the way finds something far greater than himself. This book at 400+ pages is not a light read. However, I found myself glued to the story. I started it on a Friday, and finished it the next night. The characters were honest and believable. The characters were memorable. I loved the characters of Priest and Possum, and felt sad when some characters died. The situations were feasible. I could see these situations happening to someone. You get to see a man go from being athiest, to having a strong faith in God. While this is labeled as a Christian Thriller, it's not as over the top as Tim LaHaye or a Kirk Cameron vehicle. While there are some areas, once Sam finds his faith, that lean towards sweetly sentiments, it also presents both sides fairly. If there is one slight drawback, It seems that Sam might have gone too fast from being a non-believer to having this extremely strong faith in God. Granted, for the purposes of the storyline, you don't see the whole transformation, but just seemed like a big jump. However, for those in it, who are non-believers, there is never a character that criticizes them, or tells them they are wrong to doubt. I think that's a good message. However, if you are intersted in Christian Fiction, and in Thrillers then I think you'd really enjoy this. While not overbearing like Tim LaHaye, it presents a beautiful message about faith and redemption. While there are some strong words here and there throughout the book, if I were to rate it, I'd give it a PG-13. I'd definitely recommend it though if you are looking for a thriller without all the sex and violence.
You really will not want to put this book down once you start reading. Mr. Graham grabs you from the first page and does not let go. Well written and expertly paced this book will earn a place on everyone's "keeper" shelf. I cannot wait to see what Mr. Graham offers us next.
I really liked this book. It definetly keeps your interest and makes you think. It was a mix between crime thriller and spirtual healing. Its a must read!
Joshua Graham has created an absolutely magnificent experience in this book. I did not put it down, from start to finish. He had me crying in the first chapter, confused, dazed, mesmerized, and astounded throughout the entirety, and sobbing at the beautiful, poignant ending. I was feverishly reading, unable to stop, but then completely saddened when the journey was over. I am pleasantly exhausted, after riding this emotional roller coaster, and I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. It is a must read!
I have never read a book from this author. As I got into it more and more, it was surprisingly good. I love the suspense of the story and although I was not expecting the spiritual aspect of the book but but it played into the story perfectly. This is a great read and would gladly recommend it.
Thank you Joshua for such a fabulous book and such wonderful characters! Once I started in this book, it took me less then a day to finish it, and its no short read!! i couldn't put it down! Suspense, legal thriller, with a ton of humility. While there is a Christian undertone to the book, don't let the religion sway you from reading this book. Its about family, even if they are not related by blood!
OMG!!! Beyond Justice is an extremely powerful book. From the first page I was drawn in and didn't want to put it down. I am still thinking about this book today and I know it will always be on my mind. I read Beyond Justice on my Nook but I had to go out and buy a hardcopy. It has definitely earned a permanent spot on my bookshelf. Beyond Justice will remain with me always. Brilliant writing and a Brilliant Brilliant book. I have recommended it too everyone I know.
A great read. Hooks you from the first page. I am telling everyone about this ebook. You will not be disappointed
I enjoy Grisham and Patterson and I enjoyed Graham just as much. I could not put this book down and enjoyed the twists and turns of the story as well as the complexity of the characters. If I had paid for this book it would have been worth every penny. What a bonus downloading it for free and discovering Graham!
A blending of Christian ethics and teaching without going overboard, thought provoking and very suspenseful. Went and bought all the books on ebooks from Barnes and Noble...price just right too!
I literally could not put this book down! I'm not a religious person at all, and even though this is a Christian thriller, I found the themes of forgiveness, faith, and redemption to be pretty universal. It's 400+ pages, but the writing is very fluid and readable. I will be exploring other books by this author.
This is one of the best books I've read in a while. I'm not usually one for crime books, but I had heard so many good things about this book, that I decided to pick it up. The first 50 pages were pretty hard to get through, because the action starts right out of the box. But things just become so intriguing and interesting, that I kept moving forward at a high rate. The last part is really good. The story is about a husband who comes home to find his family attacked - his wife murdered, his daughter raped and murdered, his son beaten, but alive and in a coma. Before long, he is accused of the heinous crimes. The only ones who believe him are his wife's former pastor and members of her church. As he fights to clear his name, the deck is stacked against him. But the journey teaches him many things about God's grace and mercy and power. What will happen when the true killer is found???? A real page turner, especially in part 3. A surprise ending and much we can take with us as we close the book.
I read this on a whim, I picked up a few of his other short stories and I have to say I was definitely surprised with this one. The way Graham paced the story was great. It started strong, with plenty of twists, turns and WTH's to keep me swiping away at my Nook. The religious undertones were a nice touch and made the book all the more intriguing. I finished this in 2 days. I recommend to CourtTV and Forensic File junkies and any reader looking for a court room page turner with plenty of twists.
I must admit I was a little leary this being categorized as christian fiction but found it an amazing legal thriller. It was hard to put down. I would recommend it to anyone looking for the likes of John Grisham. I actually found it a faster read. Thank you Joshua!
What a wonderful book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It has a little bit of everything. It starts off interesting and stays interesting all the way to the end. What an AWESOME BOOK!
This story is beautifully written with a true anointing. Joshua does an excellent job of merging mystery and faith all in a heart pounding, thought provoking, plot. In his freshman writing he has definitely set the bar of expectation and captured me as a life long fan.
A story of how one man can lose just about everything, pay for a crime he didn't commit and still be able to forgive. Very powerful and thought provoking.
I could not put this down. One of the best books I've read in a long time
This is one of the best books I've read in years. Great plot with well developed characters you care about. I can't wait to see what Joshua Graham publishes next - he's going to be one of the great authors of our time.
In Beyond Justice, Joshua Graham tells us the story of Sam Hudson's personal hell. The tale is eerily reminiscent of The Fugitive which is a favourite of mine - well the movie is anyway. (come on - young Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones? Who could resist?) Sam's tragedy is threefold when he arrives home to find his wife and daughter dead and his son beaten into a coma. The detective who railroads Sam into prison is one Detective Anita Pearson - and did I ever hate her! Mr Graham knows how to develop his characters. It was the characters and their distinct personalities that pulled me past the Fugitive deja vu and into this story on its own merit. I enjoyed working against Detective Pearson and I felt the trials and triumphs of Sam as he struggled to reclaim his shattered life. Beyond Justice is well developed, interesting and not at all preachy for Christian literature: easy to read and easy on the sensitivities.
This was one of the best books ever read.
I lovef this book
This is an awsesome read. I have recommended it to several friends. I couldnt put it down! I cant wait for his next book to come out.
This book was absolutely stunning. A thrilling Christian tale of redemption and forgiveness. gritty and beautiful! I would liken it to a roller coaster. Fast, too many twists and turns to figure it out until the end, exihlerating, and when finished, you want to do it all over again! I've seen some of Graham short stories available here, but I realy want another full novel by him.
This was a great book. Everytime I had to put it down I could not wait until the next time I could find some time to pick it up again.

EvaSUE 2015 Annual Report on Mission, Evangelism and Major Activities
Jesus… said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matt 28:18-20 Report 31/01/2016
The Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia (EvaSUE) which now serves university and college Christian students in over 94 government campuses and several private campuses had its beginning in a small students' bible study group at Addis Ababa University in 1963. During the past five decades, EvaSUE has been playing substantial roles in shaping the lives of thousands of graduates, spreading the gospel throughout the country and in developing the current leaders of the church, and the nation. Moreover, it is vivid that several churches throughout the country have been planted by professionals who passed through EvaSUE. Recently, EvaSUE is serving over 41,000 students with 38 fulltime staffs in 8 regional offices. The number of students in the ministry let EvaSUE to be the fastest growing student movement in the world, and the second largest movement in Africa. We aspire to see transformed students and graduates impacting their campus, nation and the world. So as to achieve this, we strategize our ministry into 4 ministerial areas; Mission, Evangelism, Discipleship and Leadership Development. In these areas, there are number of activities that we usually perform annually. Particularly with regards to mission and evangelism EvaSUE has been doing these activities using contemporary strategies in universities and colleges and in the community at large. EvaSUE train and send students and graduates for short term missions to unreached people groups and it has brought a positive impact in the progress of evangelical Christianity. EvaSUE is also finding new initiatives in order to reach the unreached/least reached society with the gospel of Christ. Among these, medical mission outreach program, mass and street evangelism and providing tutorial class to high school students are the prominent ones. As of this, the Mission and Evangelism department has two main annual programs namely; the Summer Mission program and Break Mission Program. On these programs, the department initiates and organizes students to undertake mission activities by selecting sites. This report focuses on reporting on the mission and evangelism activities as well as other major events done in 2015 different locations of the nation by students. And it has been organized in such a way that it would give basic information. In addition, it is worthy of mentioning that this report is not full as we couldn't get and compile the whole data from all the places. In addition, the report is classified based on the campuses.

Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia| EvaSUE EvaSUE Graduation Ceremony The 2015 EvaSUE Graduation Ceremony was held on 5th July at Misrak Meserete Kristos Church, Addis Ababa. The purpose of this annual event is to appreciate Christian academic excellence, increase church sensitivity towards graduates, and charge graduates to serve the church and the nation. The program was attended by students representing the 2015 graduating class, invited guests, church leaders, representatives of parachurch organizations, EvaSUE staff and board members, and families of the graduates. After the opening prayer by the former president of Evangelical Churches Fellowship of Ethiopia (ECFE), Rev. Alemu Sheta, three graduates and renowned singer Addisu Worku led the congregation in worshiping God in song. Mr. Fekede Tefera, EvaSUE board secretary, urged students to be ambassadors of God's kingdom in every corner of the country and encouraged graduates to rejoin their local church life to serve and share what God has taught them on their campuses. EvaSUE General Secretary Mr. Robel Chemeda emphasized that student ministry never replaces the church, and EvaSUE remains to Report 31/01/2016
Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia| EvaSUE be a bridge between church and campus students. He thanked churches for supporting the student ministry and exhorted graduates to give much as they have been given much. Professor Atalay Alem delivered a message based on Jeremiah 6:16 to encourage graduates to walk on the new and living path Jesus opened, not to value possessions over a Godly life, and to live a life that is worthy of God's investment in their life. Brother Negussie Bulcha led the graduates in making an oath before God to serve their local churches and country with integrity and to have a missional mind-set. Following the oath, church leaders representing Ethiopian evangelical churches welcomed graduates to their respective local churches. Students who excelled in their academic performance were also recognized and awarded. Dawit Abiy from the Science Faculty at Addis Ababa University took a trophy as Graduate of the Year. Dawit not only scored a 4.0 CGPA with twenty two A+ while studying Applied Math, he was also active in the campus fellowship and involved in leadership. Pastor Tiruwork Mesfin received EvaSUE's Special Award of the Year for her tremendous contribution to the student ministry. Pastor Tiruwork's engagement with the student ministry began when she joined Hailesilassie-I University to study Geography and continued as she joined the staff in the late 1970s and later became the leader of the staff team by then. Pastor Tiruwork used to pastor in Ethiopian Report 31/01/2016

Currently, Pastor Tiruwork has moved to Ethiopia and living in Bahir Dar. EvaSUE is thankful for another batch of graduates. As always, we encourage our graduates to stay in touch with EvaSUE and continue to support student ministry. EvaSUE Conducts Mission Impact Assessment Research The EvaSUE Evangelism and Mission Department focuses on two areas: campus evangelism, mission outreach. As part of the mission outreach projects, thousands of Christian students have participated in short-term missions in various rural and semi-urban areas, reaching 372, 670 with the Gospel and seeing 28,497 of those accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior since 2005. The short-term missions conducted by EvaSUE have a holistic approach, integrating the Gospel with initiatives such as youth reproductive health, anti-abortion campaigns, academic support, and other social services to the community at large. The goal of these missions is three-fold: to reach the unreached with the Gospel of Christ, to encourage local church youth and initiate local mission groups for sustainable mission mobilization, and to create opportunities for students to experience God's mission in their lives. In light of these goals, EvaSUE conducted research to assess the impact of its ministry in relation to campus evangelism and mission outreach endeavors through the last decade.The research was conducted in ten sample sites where short-term missions have been conducted more than four times. Selected sample mission sites were Halaba, Jinka, Dodola, Asebeteferi, Mojo, Minjar-Arerti, Wolo-Hayk, Fich, Bedele, and Ejere. In-depth interviews and focus group discussions were supplemented by an online survey of former short-term mission participants. The findings were quite positive, indicating that short-term missions had a long-term effect both on the areas (churches and individuals) that the short-term missionaries went to and on the missionaries themselves. Unity and networking were promoted among the existing local churches through collaborating on short-term programs, and new churches were begun as a result of the collaborative evangelistic efforts of the churches and the students. One example is a tribal leader in South Omo (an area where most people follow traditional animistic religion) who accepted Christ along with his family. Twenty students had come to his region for a short-term mission in June 2012, and they visited his home. After his conversion, he started to witness about Jesus to his people, and a new church is now planted in that area. Report 31/01/2016
Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia| EvaSUE Encouraged by the progress of the short-term missions program, EvaSUE would like to see similar results with our on-campus evangelism. Currently, the program uses various methods such as friendship evangelism, literature and film evangelism, and internet evangelism. These efforts have brought a moderate impact on Ethiopia's universities and colleges: every year, over 1,100 campus students come to Christ. However, much work is needed to mobilize all the Christian students, using revised strategies for even better results. Specific recommendations include the following: · Create a strong discipleship system and provide church youth with basic Christianity teachings in order to be exemplary witnesses for Christ. · Uniformly restructure all campus fellowships to be suitable for evangelism. · Expand the scope and scale of ongoing mission mobilization across the country. · Initiate new strategies and trainings to enhance the ongoing mission and evangelism programs in collaboration with local churches and parachurch organizations. · Strengthen the existing programs and strategies used by EvaSUE and initiate a national prayer program. · Assign EvaSUE staff to all universities in order to assist students in their evangelism and missions initiatives. EvaSUE Annual Leadership Summit EvaSUE's annual National Leadership Summit was held from 8th – 11th of July 2015 at Gudina Tumsa Foundation, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The National Leadership Summit is part of EvaSUE's leadership development in which campus Christian fellowship leaders learn Biblical teaching and leadership skills. The Summit is also an important forum to bring fellowship leaders from all over the country to share their experiences and to strengthen spiritual unity. The 2015 Summit, which was attended by 148 student leaders from sixty private and government colleges and universities, had the theme of "Leading by Defending and Conforming to the Gospel." It was organized in morning, afternoon, and evening sessions. The morning sessions saw an exposition of 2nd Timothy and a teaching on discipleship, while the afternoon sessions featured parallel seminars on missional leadership, mentorship, sexuality, evangelism and mission, and current issues in Christian teachings. The evening sessions were mainly dominated by a business meeting on emerging challenges of students, prayer, and a campfire night. The exposition of 2nd Timothy focused on living for and defending the true Gospel, while the teaching on discipleship was about the characteristics of a true disciple. In contrast, the parallel seminars provided detailed insights on specific topics. The seminar on mentorship highlighted the essence and importance of a mentor and resulted in an Report 31/01/2016
Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia| EvaSUE action call for the student leaders to look for a Godly mentor who can be a role model in their life endeavors. Focusing on the life of John the Baptist, the seminar on missional leadership expounded on being a servant leader. The seminar on sexuality addressed how to safeguard physical and emotional purity as well as how to counsel other students on the issue. Building on past achievements, the evangelism and mission seminar became a platform for setting a strategy for future engagements. In the seminar on current issues in Christian teachings, heresies that are widely circulated were identified and an apologetic discussion was made with the goal of equipping students with the knowledge of the true Gospel. Overall, the Summit was an occasion to reflect on achievements and challenges particular to each campus and to have fellowship among student leaders and between student leaders and EvaSUE staff. EvaSUE organized the Summit with the financial and technical support of partners who have been yoked with EvaSUE's ministry and is grateful to all partners for their valuable contribution to its mission. Staff Consulation Meeting The EvaSUE Staff Consultation was held from Nov.2-7, 2015, in the CDTRC-Sandaffa compound. The meeting had a triple target of giving direction to staff roles, equipping them with EvaSUE's basic training topics, and building strong fellowship. The thirty nine attendees included almost all regional coordinators and campus staff from government and private universities and colleges and also incorporated eleven new staff members. Report 31/01/2016
Evangelical Students' and Graduates' Union of Ethiopia| EvaSUE In the first session, EvaSUE General Secretary Robel Chemeda presented the roles of staff and regional coordinators. After giving a refreshing discussion on the vision, mission, and values of EvaSUE, he expounded on teaching, guiding, and modeling as the three pillars of all staff roles, based on 1Timothy 4:11-13. The training topics were chosen to be highly relevant for campus student ministry. Trainers with in-depth experience and knowledge of each area presented on Small Group Ministry, Friendship Evangelism, Intimacy with God, Inductive Bible Study, Worldview, and Sexuality and Relationships. Their delivery was semi-participatory, and participants were able to reflect at the end of each presentation. Since staff workers are expected to give these trainings to their respective campus student fellowships, the office also provided them with a hard copy of all the training materials to take with them. In addition to the formal sessions, the staff had an opportunity to enjoy mutual fellowship, share their ministerial experiences and burdens, and spend time over the six days deepening their relationships with one another. EvaSUE would like to thank all those who helped this program financially or were involved with the training. Attendees shared that they benefited greatly from the training, sharing of experiences, and the testimonies from others during informal times, and they felt it was an overall boost to their ministries. We hope to be able to put more effort and resources into equipping and empowering our staff in the future. Campus Mission Mobilization (CMM) Project CMM Project is a jointly implimented project with EvaSUE and Horn of Africa Mission Engagers Ministry (HOEME). According to CMM's five years strategic plan, we are assuming to train two hundred fifty/250 campus graduates and key student leaders and multiplying fifty/50 full time mobilizers by hosting fifty/50 trainees and deploying ten/10 full timers every year. For first CMM implementation year, we train and mobilize twenty six/26 and got five/5 full time mobilizers (two deployed by ME/EvaSUE partnership and the rest three became EvaSUE's full time staffs) which means it was about 50% succeed our first project year regarding the number of trained students.

And the rest thirty one/31 2015/16 CMM graduates will be volunteer mobilizers and live their life strategically by practicing world Christian habits ( sending, praying, welcoming, mobilizing etc ) as they go to different part of the country as student and professionals. They will also be part of our coaching and mentoring program as we going to do that for full time mobilizers. The fourty two participants went through the four/4 weeks class room training, two/2 weeks internship program, one/1 week recap training format and they became part of our ten/10 months couching and mentoring program. Only two/2 participants couldn't able to come back for recap. About twenty one/21 teachers from inside and outside the country and from different denominations came and teach in the area of discipleship, leadership, mission and evangelism with the goal and focus of mission mobilization. According to the evaluation and feedback from participants we got some imputes to make CMM more effective regarding on some trainings and teachers. We also introduce two/2 additional mobilization tools this year which is very strategic and important for campus mission context. God helped us a lot to be successful this year!

Most of them start practicing mobilization from their own families (parents, brother and sisters) and friends, church leaders, at the small groups and at the congregation of their membership churches. More than 1500 believers had a chance to hear about Gods heart for all nations and about our world reality in the context of unreached people groups.

Central Region Students'Conference (Supermacy of Christ) The Addis Ababa Regional office of EvaSUE held a teaching conference on 4th and 5th April 2015 at Beza International Church, Addis Ababa. The focus of the conference was the Book of Colossians under the theme, 'Supremacy of Christ'. The conference was aimed at equipping campus students to defend their faith by focusing on the supremacy of Christ. On average more than 1500 students from fifteen universities and colleges attended the three sessions of the conference. In each session, Dr. Mamusha Fenta gave an exposition on who Christ is, what our salvation entails, and the standard of life expected from believers. The first session highlighted that the basic foundation of the Christian faith is understanding the identity of Christ. According to Colossians, Jesus is the revelation of the invisible God, and He Himself is the almighty God. The second session emphasized the fact that we were all under the dominion of darkness as enemies of God in our thoughts and morals.

Since we have a supreme Lord and have received a priceless salvation, we are called to live a life that is worthy of the Lord. To achieve this goal, knowing and understanding our disposition as being dead and hidden with Christ is crucial. In addition, taming our thoughts and learning mortification on a daily basis are essential disciplines to live up to the standard. Alongside the teaching, Zema for Christ Worship Team and the student worship team linked heaven and earth through sincere and enormously rich music. Additionally, Mr. Negussie Bulcha, a renowned teacher and preacher in both student and church ministry, Mr. Fekede Tefera, the Board Chairman of EvaSUE, and Dr. Beta Mengestu, the leader of Beza International Church, briefly addressed and encouraged the students. In their closing remarks, Mr. Zelalem Abebe and Mr. Yakob Mame of EvaSUE announced their plan to hold such a teaching conference annually and thanked all parties involved in organizing the event. The expected outcome of the conference is to empower students to have a deeply rooted and profound understanding of Christ's supremacy, the priceless value of salvation, and the call to live a life worthy of God. Though there was enormous feedback after the event, it is worth mentioning the response from one student from FB campus. She emotionally expressed her impression by saying, "I have never understood Jesus like this before."
"Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: "whom shall I send? And who
will go for us?" And I said, "here I am send me!" Isaiah 6:8
Date and time: Saturday, January 16, 2016, 9am to 6 pm
Place: 700 west Braddock rd, Alexanderia, VA, 22302
Nature of Meeting: Especially called for fellowship, connect, support, report and plan together
Host: EvaSUE Alumni in North America, DMV area committee
The fellowship started at 10 am with prayer
The morning shift was dedicated for introduction to one another, worship and teaching
Every one introduced themselves with perspective campuses. Group worshiped in
singing led by brother Abiso.
Brother Workneh Beshah, an invited guest partner of EvaSUE then shared the word of
God. The word was about how the will of God is different from ours but is the one
having the right ending in our life's purpose.
Then A 5 minutes video showing students engaged in mission activities was presented.
A simple lunch was served allowing everyone time to interact to one another.
The spirit of fellowship from the morning continued in the after lunch session too. The
afternoon time was dedicated mainly for presenting what is being done by the alumni in
North America and a panel discussion among the graduates on how to go forward.
Mike Hunde from the committee presented the latest summary of activities been
undertaking for the last couple of years in North America by the alumni.
Sister Tewabech has elaborated what is and has been happening in Ethiopia through the
ministry. She also shared her personal experiences, things affecting the ministry and the
generation, challenges observed … accompanied with some advises and wisdom
Attendants were also able to share their experiences as students through the
fellowships: What they learned &gained and their commitments to support the
association in the future. More and more graduates expressed their commitment to the
continuous support of the ministry.
Graduates forwarded their thought in how to strengthen this fellowship. One being to
have continual regular meetings. It was suggested for a quarterly fellowship time and
accepted by majority. So today considered the first meeting for the year the next was
marked on Saturday April 16, 2016, 3 pm. The committee will announce the place with
a reminder ahead of time via email. The fellowship is agreed to be a half day only
It was asked by the committee for a volunteer to join the committee and one person
namely Abiso Langena came forward. Brother Abiso was invited by the committee from
2 years ago to serve in the committee but didn't accept the invitation mentioning time
constraints as a reason. Regardless he continued supporting the work when ever
needed. And today his volunteering was welcomed by all. From today onwards he will
be officially joining the DMV committee.
The committee asked a financial support from the attendees to fund the upcoming
planed events in the area. The Alumni board in US has planned 4 events in March 2016
in DMV area and money is needed to provide the transportation and accommodation of
ministers and other related expenses.
The attendees then generously. As a result, about 1,594$ was collected in cash and
checks right away. More than 7 attendants promised to send us their contributions as
they didn't carry money with them at the moment. The DMV committee later
contributed additional 400$ for miscellaneous expenses. Also another 6 graduates
pledged in written a direct support to the alumni of varied amount with a total of 1300$
before the year folds.
A total of 39 people attended the day, although, few left after the morning session and
few others came only after lunch. The group is generally consisted of EvaSUE alumni
members and some family members, every one engaged with passion.
Sister Tewabech Mengiste for networking and bringing graduates together
First Assembly of God Church for giving us place of meeting
Brother Senai Assefa for arranging the place and accommodations

ROCK: Foster the People, ōSupermodel,ö (Columbia) 2 1/2 Stars
Foster the People are in one-hit-wonder danger zone. The group had a monster, the quadruple-platinum ōPumped Up Kicks,ö from its 2010 debut album ōTorches,ö and nothing thatÆs come close since. That assigns ōSupermodelö the unenviable task of defining the Los Angeles modern rock trioÆs future and also puts the group itself in the position of looking like a failure if it doesnÆt repeat that success. The truth is it probably wonÆt Ś but that does not make ōSupermodelö a flawed endeavor. In fact, the 11-song set does what sophomore albums are supposed to do, which is to gently but determinedly expand Foster the PeopleÆs sonic palette, exploring a more organic and immediate terrain thatÆs warmer and more muscular than ōTorchesö but still has a decidedly contemporary edge. ōComing of Age,ö the albumÆs first single, is a winning pop anthem, propelled by synthesizers and cutting guitar riffs atop an urgent groove. The opening ōAre You What You Want To Be?ö incorporates exotic Afro-Caribbean flavors while the Beach Boys-style a capella harmonies of ōThe Angelic Welcome of Mr. Jonesö lead into ōBest Friend,ö a buoyant R&B workout that Pharrell could have put on his new album. Mark Foster and company still incorporate plenty of electro touches from the New Wave and Industrial schools throughout ōSupermodel,ö but thereÆs a greater balance this time with the songsÆ melodic and harmonic structures. It may not be as pumped-up as its predecessor, but ōSupermodelö still has plenty of kicks.
ROCK: The Pretty Reckless, ōGoing To Hellö (Razor & Tie) 2 1/2 Stars
Actors moonlighting in music are generally buyer-beware, but ōGossip GirlÆsö Taylor Momsen showed she meant business on the Pretty Reckless 2010 debut ōLight Me Up,ö and the new ōGoing To Hellö is even better. Having established its headbanging cred last time out, Momsen and company push the parameters further this time, sounding particularly comfortable with gentler, acoustic tracks such as ōBurn,ö ōAbsolutionö and ōWaiting on a Friend,ö as well as the smoothly mainstream ōF---ed Up World.ö They still bring plenty of heavy, too Ś albeit with more dynamic variety Ś on ōFollow Me Down,ö ōHeaven Knows,ö ōSweet Thingsö and the title track, making Hell sound like a fairly interesting place to spend some time.

Black Lips, ōUnderneath the Rainbowö (Vice): Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney is one of three producers who worked on the Atlanta rockersÆ seventh album.

Sony: PS3 aiming at the family this Christmas
Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida has said PS3's aim this Christmas is to keep it in the family.
Yoshida said, speaking in the latest Game Informer (via Gaming Everything and CVG): "We'd love to have multi-million sellers for the holiday. But each title needs time to develop, especially new IP like The Last of Us. God of War has always come out in March, so that's a natural time to aim at.
"Our strategy for Christmas is to go big on family-friendly titles. This is a neglected genre for the PlayStation 3, but as it matures, I think it's really important to have these games on the platform. I think we have a great lineup this holiday to complement third parties' big core games."
Both The Last of Us and Beyond are slated to release in 2013.

I was going through some examples in hadley's guide to functionals, and came across an unexpected problem.
Suppose I have a list of model objects,
x=1:3;y=3:1; bah <- list(lm(x~y),lm(y~x))
and want to extract something from each (as suggested in hadley's question about a list called "trials"). I was expecting one of these to work:
lapply(bah,`$`,i='call') # or...
However, these return nulls. It seems like I'm not misusing the
$ function, as these things work:
Anyway, I'm just doing this as an exercise and am curious where my mistake is. I know I could use an anonymous function, but think there must be a way to use syntax similar to my initial non-solution. I've looked through the places
$ is mentioned in
?Extract, but didn't see any obvious explanation.
I just realized that this works:
and this
Maybe this just comes down to some
lapply voodoo that demands anonymous functions where none should be needed? I feel like I've heard that somewhere on SO before.

We all have a biological clock, located in our brain, whose function is to alert us throughout the day. Research has enlightened us to the fact that there is a natural dip in the alerting power of the clock. This dip occurs in the mid-afternoon. Therefore, an afternoon nap or "siesta" will increase our overall alertness if we are not quite getting all the sleep we need in the evening.
