Ekklesia was originally set up to operate 'virtually', with its freelance / volunteer staff operating from different locations. We have now established a modest, flexible office and meeting base through our partners in London, Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church. We also work in collaboration with associates in Scotland (where we share office space) and elsewhere in England and Wales. Ekklesia's model of operation is co-operative. Thanks to support from Andrews Charitable Trust we have been able to establish a part-time staff team for the first time. There is also a range of other associates, consultants and contributors. If you want to contact any of the staff individually by email you can do so by firstname.secondname(at)ekklesia.co.uk To find out more about Ekklesia, see our values statement.

Ryan Anderson. Kevin Love. Tracy McGrady. Gilbert Arenas. Dana Barros. Kevin Johnson. What do these guys all have in common? They all won the NBA's Most Improved Player award.
What are we taught as young players? The summer is the time to improve, right? If you're not improving, you're losing, right? Well, as great as the NBA's MIP award is – and IT IS definitely great when you consider how many things need to go right for someone to have a shot at it – it doesn't necessarily mean future greatness. In fact, it almost never does. Only 11 of the winners since 1986 went on to play in an All-Star Game.
But that won't stop the 10 names on this list from taking advantage of their new opportunities. If I was putting money up, I'd bet one of these players ends up with his name on the aforementioned list next spring.
Today, we're taking a look at the 10 guys – five from each conference – that I believe have the best chance to take home the MIP award in 2012-13.

LOU WILLIAMS, Atlanta Hawks
Drafted directly out of an Atlanta-area high school seven years ago, Lou Williams is finally headed back to Georgia. The Atlanta Hawks signed the scoring specialist in July to help fill the 19-points-per-game-sized hole left by Joe Johnson. No other guard on the current Hawks roster averaged more than 13 points a game last season, so look for Larry Drew to rely heavily on Williams' scoring ability.
Williams increased both his three-point attempts and three-point percentage each of the last four years and his 36 percent from downtown last season was a career-high. In an August interview with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Williams said he spent time this summer improving his catch-and-shoot game and he relayed his desire to play off the ball more. In Philadelphia, Williams was often paired with a non-ballhandler in the backcourt, forcing him to take up the task of initiating the offense. In Atlanta, Drew will pair Williams with point guards Devin Harris and Jeff Teague, allowing Williams to play to his strengths and focus on what he does best: scoring the basketball. In order to be in consideration for Most Improved Player this coming season, Williams' scoring average will have to see a substantial bump from the 14.9 points per game he averaged last year. If Williams is ever going to be a 20-point per game scorer, it is going to be this season in Atlanta.Subscribe to UPROXX
TAJ GIBSON, Chicago Bulls
Taj Gibson has shown that he can be a starting power forward in the league. He's aggressive in the paint, active on defense, and is set to make nearly $13 million less than Carlos Boozer next season. According to 82games.com, the Bulls' most used lineup last year was Derrick Rose, Ronnie Brewer, Luol Deng, Boozer and Joakim Noah. However, swapping Gibson for Boozer increased the offensive points per possession and decreased the points allowed per possession. The Bulls were a better team when Gibson was on the floor. His 11.9 offensive rebounding rate last season was higher than Kevin Love, Tyson Chandler and Dwight Howard. Though he only averaged 20 minutes a game in 2012, his 1.3 blocks per contest was 10th-best among forwards.
Gibson's numbers over his first three seasons are eerily similar to another promising big man once trapped behind Boozer. Utah power forward Paul Millsap saw his scoring average jump nearly six points when he took over Boozer's minutes two seasons ago. Expect Gibson's to do the same if he gets the opportunity. When Gibson sees the increased playing time he deserves, his modest numbers (7.7 points and 5.3 rebounds per game) will balloon and make him a prime candidate for the Most Improved Player Award.
EVAN TURNER, Philadelphia 76ers
Evan Turner is poised for a breakout year. Philadelphia made major changes to their wing rotation this offseason and it will mean more minutes and touches for Turner. During the rare times Andre Iguodala was on the bench last season (he averaged 36 minutes a game), Turner slid to the small forward spot and showed that he can produce. According to 82games.com, when Turner was playing the three, the 76ers were an impressive plus-61. With Iguodala now in Denver, Turner will receive ample time at small forward and will be surrounded with floor-spacing shooters like Jason Richardson and Nick Young. Turner has an above average assist-to-turnover ratio for a swingman and will see plenty of opportunities to initiate the offense as the 76ers will lack ballhandlers when Jrue Holiday sits. Doug Collins revealed his plan in an interview with CSNPhilly.com:
"I could sub for Jrue early in the game with another perimeter guy and let Evan play out the quarter and then come back with Jrue as the point guard with our second unit and let Evan rest. I think what you will see is Jrue and Evan playing point guard with the second unit based on night to night."
Turner has a lot to live up to as a former No. 2 overall pick, but Doug Collins should give him every opportunity to begin realizing his potential this season.

Casio EXILIM Zoom Digital Camera With 12 Megapixels
The new flagship EX-Z1200 incorporates CCD-shift image stabilization and the latest EXILIM Engine 2.0 image processing module with motion analysis technology. These features work together to help prevent blurry shots due to shaky hands, subject movement or poor focus when photographing moving subjects such as children or pets.
In addition, the auto-tracking AF system now combines both face detection and motion analysis technologies. Once the focus is locked in, it follows a moving subject's face, maintaining both sharp focus and correct exposure.
Their blur-reduction technology automatically analyzes the velocity and vector of a moving subject and sets the most appropriate ISO sensitivity and shutter speed. Anti Shake DSP reduces blur due to shaky hands and subject movement, using high shutter speeds and high sensitivity settings. In addition, movie mode comes with electronic camera shake compensation function.
Exclusive to the Casio EXILIM line of digital cameras in the U.S., is the eBay Best Shot mode. The eBay Best Shot mode is one of 34 Best Shot Modes featured in the EX-Z1200. eBay Best Shot takes photos at a size that is image optimized for display on eBay, allowing picture takers to more quickly and easily create photos for selling items on eBay. eBay Best Shot mode also includes Auto Macro, an ideal setting for capturing images of small items such as jewelry, tags, etc., thus automatically adjusting the focus from acquiring fine details in close up shots to capturing large items from a distance. eBay Best Shot mode allows users to capture optimized images at an ideal size for eBay. For ease of use, eBay photos are stored in a special eBay directory.

The prognosis for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is extremely poor. Identification of molecules whose targeting may eliminate GBM cells and/or sensitize GBM responses to cytotoxic and targeted agents is therefore urgently needed. CD44 is a major cell surface receptor for hyaluronan (HA) and a cancer stem cell marker, and has been implicated in cancer progression. However, little is known about its contributions to GBM progression and to the responses of GBM cells to chemo- and targeted therapies and about the major downstream signaling pathway that mediates the pro-tumor effect of CD44. We show that CD44 is up regulated in malignant gliomas and that its depletion blocks GBM growth and sensitizes GBM cells to cytotoxic drugs in vivo. We first demonstrate that CD44 antagonists display potent anti-GBM efficacy in mouse models and that CD44 functions upstream of mammalian Hippo signaling pathway. Furthermore, CD44 promotes GBM cell resistance to reactive oxygen species- and cytotoxic agent-induced stress and apoptosis by attenuating activation of the Hippo pathway kinases MST1/2 and Lats1/2. We also show that CD44 enhances the growth signals derived from ErbB and c-Met receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Based on these results, we hypothesize that CD44 antagonists inhibit GBM progression and sensitize GBM responses to chemo- and targeted therapies by inhibiting GBM cell survival through enhancing activation of the Hippo signaling pathway and inhibiting the growth signals derived from ErbB/c-Met RTKs. We further hypothesize that CD44 is a prime target for GBM therapy and its antagonists are efficacious when used as single agents and/or combination with chemotherapeutic agents and pharmacological inhibitors of erbB and c-Met RTKs in the GBM mouse models.
Three specific aims are proposed.
Aim 1 is to establish that CD44 antagonists, a variety of soluble CD44-Fc fusion proteins, display anti- glioma activity, sensitize GBM response to chemo- and targeted therapies in vivo.
Aim 2 is to establish that the chemosensitizing effect of CD44 antagonists in vivo is achieved by enhancing activation of Hippo signaling pathway. Finally, aim 3 is to establish that hsCD44-Fc fusion proteins achieve their anti-glioma effect and sensitize GBM response to the targeted therapies, at least partially, through inhibiting activities of erbB and c-Met RTKs. The results from proposed experiments will establish CD44 as a prime therapeutic target for GBM and demonstrate potent therapeutic efficacies of the newly developed CD44 antagonists as single agents and/or in combinations with chemo- and other targeted therapies in preclinical GBM models. These results may lead to better clinical outcome and longer lasting clinical benefit for GBM patients in the future. Therefore, this proposal has high biological and clinical relevance and significance, and translational potential.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor that, by virtue of its resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy, is incurable, and therefore identification of molecules whose targeting will eliminate GBM cells and/or sensitize the responses of glioblastoma cells to cytotoxic and other established targeted agents is urgently needed. This proposal is to establish that CD44 is a prime therapeutic target for GBM and its antagonists, soluble human CD44-Fc fusion proteins, are efficacious when used as single agents and/or in combinations with chemotherapeutic agents and existing pharmacological inhibitors of erbB and c-Met receptor tyrosine kinases in the mouse GBM models, which may lead to development of novel agents and combination treatments to achieve better clinical outcome and longer lasting clinical benefit for GBM patients in the future. Therefore, this proposal has high biological and clinical relevance and significance, and translational potential.

Hi Glen,
Part of the answer to this question is whether you care about the
hostas. The fastest way would be bad for the plants. Basically faster means
warmer, and warm might be OK to get them up but will be bad in the long run.
If they're plants you don't want to hurt, start out warm, but go to a
cooler location once the spears are up most of the way but not yet
unfurling. Keep them dry when they are warm, or you will be risking rotting
them off. Indoor temperatures are not good for forcing. They will do best
(but not fastest) if they are kept to 60F or less during the day and 45F or
so at night. Forcing them at indoor temps of 70F or so will cause them to
stretch out the leaves so that they are thin and weak. This will be even
worse with a lot of water and less than full sun. Speaking of sun, do you
see the sun at all this time of year so far north? These leaves will end up
collapsing by mid-Summer, forcing the plant to either go dormant really
early or waste energy on putting new leaves up. Assuming the plant survives
all that torture, it will be smaller the next year.
With only a month to get them up you are going to have to keep them
pretty warm. Six weeks would have been better. Few hostas will "color-up"
that fast so I would suggest you choose by those which have good color upon
emergence. Spring yellows like 'Sea Fire' would be good, as would variegated
plants like 'Sagae' and 'Patriot' that have good color when they unfurl. It
will be hard to get any really blue color in the time you have, but put any
blue ones in direct sun.
If you're going to push them really hard to get them up, don't use
anything you wouldn't mind losing.

My mother has had Alzheimer's for 10 years now and one of the things that happens with dementia is that it becomes increasingly difficult to talk to the person because their frame of reference diminishes over time. Early on the short term memory seems to be the most difficult, yet childhood memories can be very vivid. My mum's now in the latter stages and sadly, nearly all her memories have gone. This makes any type of conversation almost impossible, and certainly a very stilted and uncomfortable experience for both of us. So what an amazing support these memory collection tins are! Fabulous for early stages of dementia where stimulating memories of the 'old days' can spark lucid moments; bringing back vivid, humorous stories and anecdotes from way back when. The thoughtfulness and detail in the memory collection tins is stunning. There are examples of old packaging and adverts, soft textural food to play with and all in a large, colourful tin. Importantly, there are plenty of things just to talk about. So now that my mum is in the latter stages of dementia, our conversation using the tins is more around simple observations and expressions of interest. These collections are versatile enough to be used at all stages of dementia. They're a great investment as you will be able to revisit them again and again and always find something to talk about.

Hi Will,
The iris community certainly could use a few more hybridizers working with
species crosses and I can't fault your enthusiasm!
I would suggest that the term "mixing pollen" when used by other hybridizers
usually means that pollen from different plants of the same species are
mixed before using.
It's a space and time saving method I use especially when using unnamed
seedlings on another species to find out if there is any compatibility. Once
I know I have a "take", I can do more detailed one-on-one crosses.
Hiroshi Shimizu also mentioned of the "Eye Shadow Irises" that pollen from a
wide array of Japanese irises was mixed before using on individual I.
pseudacorus types to see if any might be receptive. Once the best
"pseudacorus" for the crosses was identified, more crosses could be made
with selected JIs. (BTW, the "pseudacorus" that won out is actually reported
to be a 3rd generation pseudacorus-type derivative of HOLDEN CLOUGH, a
species-x. But that's a whole 'nuther topic ;-))
You'll find that if you limit mixing pollen to plants of the same species
that you'll be able to tell more quickly if a cross worked and increase your
chance of success in subsequent crosses.
Good luck with your hybridizing.

Hi Betty,
Thanks! We had another exceptionally dry summer. Then when we finally started getting rains, I dug, divided and replanted the rest of 'Cricket Song' clump. So, it's not looking like I'll see any rebloom on it here this year. It's good to hear that it is reblooming anywhere. I sent three rhizomes out to be guest irises for the Ontario, California convention - I hope it's maybe also reblooming for them.
And Betty, don't forget that even though it's a diploid, it still might be a good breeder for you. I've gotten seeds pretty consistently [although admittedly not loads of them] from using diploid pollen on tetraploid pod parents. I've got one seedling increasing out in the front flowerbed from using 'Easy Smile' pollen (sister of 'Cricket Song') on Lowell Baumunk's tetraploid TB 'Introspection'. And also two seedlings from TB pod parents, using 'Astra Girl' pollen. I'm hoping I'll get to see maiden bloom in the Spring.
Thanks for trying 'Cricket Song' out and thanks also for that cheerful feedback.
Take care, Tom
No picture, but I wanted to report to Tom that Cricket Song has two
stalks showing lots of color. It should have enough time to open
before a hard freeze.

Pan-Fried gurnard, borage and water-boarding parsley…The contestants enter a 'world that questions food.' Pity about the presenters of Masterchef: The Finals, says JIM SHELLEY
The bloated, bombastic, absurdity of Masterchef never ceases to amaze me.
When it comes to Masterchef, even the word 'final' has been puffed-up and over-blown. Over-cooked.
As far as the people who make it are concerned, in order to reflect its great importance, it has to have three 'finals' and four 'finalists.'
Wednesday's was the first 'final' during which one was eliminated. Thursday will be another, and probably do the same. For the rest of us, the actual final will be on Friday – because that's when we find out who the winner is.
Scroll down for video
In for a roasting: John Torode and Gregg Wallace - the presenters of Masterchef. Jim Shelley says the pair bring virtually nothing to the show, but actually spoil it
At first it looked as if the recipe for the show's success was going to be predictably stale.
The time it took before anyone used that most banal of Reality TV clichés, the J word (describing what a 'journey' they had been on)? One minute.
But there was one amazing change: the almost total absence of the presenters, John Torode and Gregg Wallace - the men who usually not only bring virtually nothing to the show, but actually spoil it.
Time it took for their ugly mugs to even appear on their own programme? Twenty glorious minutes.
This meant we only had to survive the hyperbole of narrator India Fisher's whispery introduction.
'Tonight, the competition moves on to a completely different level,' she trembled.
Inventing invisible ingredients? Space food? Not quite.
The cab driver equivalent of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Gregg Wallace, waited half the show before he appeared, leaning over and commenting on Ping's pudding (as it were)
They were cooking for 'five iconic Michelin star giants,' she said, as if their diners were super human, under the tutelage of Tom Kerridge, who was described as 'the rule-changing maestro' (another God amongst men clearly).
Frankly the five chefs sounded as if they had been made them up – probably by Martin Amis - with names such as Nathan Outlaw, 'My name is' Michael Caines, and best of all Tom Kitchin, who could have been a children's cartoon character, like the culinary version of Postman Pat.
'Hello, it's Tom Kitchin...'

As the man behind The Hand & Flowers (the only pub in the world to be awarded two Michelin stars), Kerridge did his best to exaggerate the suspense behind the whole enterprise, declaring: 'it's a reputation that we've worked very hard for the last nine years to get right. I would hate for it to come crumbling down around us at the hands at four people who have not done it before.'
As if that was really going to happen.
Come on Masterchef Tom, although we might destroy your business. Anyway, we finally got to what we'd come to see: the four plebs struggling to cope with cooking impossibly over-complicated food.
Angela got the starter: parsley soup.
'Tom's starter features Bramley apples, salted cucumber and confit orange,' Fisher stated. And parsley surely?
'The dish also includes blue cheese tortellini, vibrant green parsley soup, finished off with croutons and borage.'
She didn't explain what 'borage' was, but it didn't sound exactly appetising. 'Can I do it ?' summarised Angela. 'I can EAT it !'
Considering she was a finalist on Masterchef, her attitude to cooking was no different from mine.
Luke was on fish, making 'moules mariniere with warm stout foam and an individual brown bread.'
Yum. Maybe give me the foam on the side. In a pint jar.
'I have made mussels before,' Luke said, which was a start.
Twenty-one year old Jack's dish was 'seared venison', which sounded fine.
'With star anise-infused carrot, game ragout, chargrilled lime, toasted lentil dal and carrotcake.'
Not fine.
Ping's dessert - 'malt cake, with malted milk ice cream, orange tuile with crème fraiche and a yeast tuile filled with butterscotch sauce' - was less a cake than a sculpture.
'I've never made a tuile before,' she said. Who has Ping?
John Torode (played by Harry Enfield) backstage with his hair combed, before dragging it through a hedge backwards and walking on to the Masterchef set
Handy hints you might want to write down included: ensuring the vibrant green of your parsley by blanching it and quickly plunging into iced water (like water-boarding it basically); cooking your vegetables in a parsley-flavoured 'nage' (no, me neither); and always make sure you 'de-beard' your mussels (possibly a metaphor).
The judges loved the parsley soup, praising 'the textures', 'the vibrancy', and, when it came to Simon Rogan, 'the colour': 'it's grrrrreen !' he enthused. Yes we noticed.
When Angela emerged to take her bow, he continued: 'it's not easy to get something that's meant to be green THAT green.'
When he was asked 'how are you?' Luke made the mistake of telling the five chefs who had struggled for years to establish their own Michelin star restaurants that he was 'a bit tired.'
The pernicious effect The X Factor has had on our culture and collective imagination was confirmed when Jack was told 'you absolutely nailed it.'
'What a dish !' Tom Kitchin told Ping, as if he was setting up a Carry On joke.
Half the show had gone and Gregg Wallace's only contribution so far had been to lean over and comment on Ping's pudding (as it were): 'look at that ! That's a work of art', a comment that had about as much critical value as a cabdriver's.
As for Torode, he gushed: 'what an amazing day ! A huuuuuuuge amount of learning', before revealing how the next round would (two chefs would go through and two go into 'a cook off), which they seemed to think so complicated, it needed explaining several times.
'ONE of them's got to go home !' he boomed, as if we were simpletons. 'At the end of this. We will have found our final THREE.'
'This. Is your first test. That's right. The humble chicken.'
Personally, I was hoping someone would have made Gregg a chicken bake in honour of the 49p delicacy on our local High Streets.
As usual, Wallace and Torode built up the tension, treating it as if they were deciding who to execute, but the verdict was never in any doubt
But instead Luke went for 'chicken & mushroom gyoza cooked two ways – crispy and steamed.'
Well, we've all done it.
'I like the density of your dumplings,' Gregg leered becoming alarmingly frisky, definitely licking his lips, with the menace of a hungry Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
'Good flavoured broth,' added Torode. 'It's got viscosity. It sort of sticks to your lips...it's lovely.'
Is that lovely? It didn't sound it.
As for the 21 year-old they might as well just call 'The Winner,' India Fisher sighed: 'Jack has stuffed a chicken leg with chicken livers, pancetta and tarragon. With crushed potatoes, leeks, wild mushrooms and a tarragon sauce.'
It was a big leg OK? From a big chicken. It was like something Henry VIII couldn't polish off !
'It tastes great mate,' Wallace slavered - a rather elementary critique, even from him. 'Plenty of pepper which I love.'
All those ingredients, I'm not sure it was the PEPPER that Jack was looking to be complimented on.
The female finalists were more basic. Ping's pan roasted and poached chicken with butter garlic rice' had 'no complexity.'
As for Angela's chicken with tarragon, Torode complained: 'The chicken needs more seasoning. The mushrooms need more seasoning and the potatoes need more seasoning.'
I think what he was trying to say was, it needed more seasoning.
When it comes to Masterchef, even the word 'final' has now been puffed-up, over-blown and over-cooked
It meant that even when it came to the judging, Wallace and Torode were virtually redundant. It was obvious Ping and Angela were going into 'the cook off.'
Here Ping was in her element, producing not so much a dish as a feast: 'pork and Liver soup, salted egg-fried chicken with curry leaves, braised guy lan with pork and prawns,' sighed Fisher. 'And rice.'
'Really exciting, really interesting. I love the effort,' gushed Torode
'That pork and liver soup is incredible !' agreed Wallace. Angela never had a hope.
Things didn't bode well when they asked her 'what are you cooking?' and she couldn't remember, standing there crying instead.
It turned out to be 'pan fried gurnard, deep-fried squid and brown shrimps' which didn't sound that nice and looked even worse, a mess, as if she'd dropped it.
'Your gurnard is so soft !' enthused Gregg, saucily, as if he was trying to cheer her up.
As usual, Wallace and Torode built up the tension, treating it as if they were deciding who to execute rather than put through to a TV cookery show, but the verdict was never in any doubt.
'Probably one of the most difficult decisions we've had to make in ten years,' Torode said/lied.
'We really struggled with this. We really, really found this hard,' Wallace protested too much, shouting over the torrents of violins that suggested one of the contestants' kittens was about to be sacrificed.
'The contestant through to the final three....is....'
'Ping !' we all shouted, with juvenile enthusiasm, like microwaves.
'It has been a horrendous day,' said Ping, rather than Angela. 'But I'm really chuffed.'
'Everything comes to an end,' said Angela, looking on the bright side.
For the show's second ;'final', the portentous, pretentious self-importance is already looking even worse, as we learned the remaining three finalists were setting off to cook in a restaurant in Barcelona, and 'a world that questions food.'

Bin Laden is dead. General Motors is alive. That's the first term summary the Democrats hope American voters will take to the polls, come November. But despite attempts from both campaigns to keep the message simple, the race for the 2012 US Presidential Election, looks to be as complex and closely fought as ever.
A lengthy and bruising Republican primary race brought social issues to the fore and President Obama's surprise announcement in support of gay marriage kept them there. Despite a lukewarm response from his party during the primaries, Mitt Romney eventually won the Republican nomination. His support is bolstered by what some commentators see as the American right's unusually intense loathing for the incumbent president.
For Mitt Romney then, the greatest challenge of the campaign has been his likeability problem. Central to this is his wealth and, more specifically, the way he came by it. Even in a country supposedly free of class-envy, an elevator for cars is seen as extravagant.
An Obama campaign attack ad which draws attention to Romney's work at private equity firm Bain Capital has come under fire from some unlikely corners, but in an era of limitless "super PAC" funding, it's unlikely to be the last of its kind.
According to the received wisdom, however, the super PACs may be spending in vain. There's only ever one real election decider: the economy.
The Numbers

$15m (£9.3m) – Amount raised for the Obama campaign by a fundraising dinner hosted by Hollywood actor George Clooney. Source: BBC News
$250m (£163m) – Estimated wealth of presidential candidate Mitt Romney. According to Forbes magazine this would rank him among the richest ever US presidents. Source: Forbes
