Last week, I once again joined my colleagues at the AHCA/NCAL Quality Award Examiners meeting. This year, I received an award for over 10 years of service.
No, this isn't showing masochistic tendencies, despite the months of hard work each year; I believe those of us who volunteer our time year after year show a dedication toward impacting quality.
We have the privilege of reviewing applications (I am a Silver Award examiner) of those facilities that have made significant strides toward quality improvement. I mean real strides towards changing the face of care in that facility, not just changing a carpet or adding super bingo to Monday night activity!
It's so exciting working with a team of like-minded LTC professionals, applying Baldridge criteria and reviewing these applications. I often feel like shouting, "In your face, you negative News Nellys!" that only wish to portray what we do in a harsh light. Like, why don't you just say we shake babies and slap grandmas in the same breath?
Oh, but if they could see all the awesome stuff that is going on nationwide, maybe that would change their opinion. (OK, who am I kidding? Good news doesn't sell.)
But it does energize me, which is why I volunteer year after year. It gives me joy, it gives me hope, it shows that skilled nursing and assisted living facilities are giving amazing quality care and continue to improve.
So, take that, all you naysayers. Even though the criteria are VERY strict, I have a feeling this year's list of award recipients will be larger than ever. And next October at the annual AHCA/NCAL conference, we will have something to shout about!

Micromax launched its iOne budget smartphone in May this year. Now, a new teaser suggests that the company will soon launch a new Micromax iOne Note phone in India. The phone maker has published a dedicated page on its website that not only reveals the phone's design, but also its specifications. It will be yet another budget smartphone to offer a waterdrop-style notched display design.
Micromax iOne Note features, specifications
The company's iOne Note phone will offer a 6.088-inch display with HD+ (720 x 1560 pixels) resolution. It will draw its power from a 1.6GHz + 1.25GHz processor. Micromax is liekly to launch the device in 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage option. There will also be an option to expand the storage by up to 64GB using the microSD card slot.
In terms of photography, the iOne Note will feature two cameras at the back, which will be assisted by a flash. The setup will include a 13-megapixel main rear camera, and a 2-megapixel secondary sensor. It will also offer support for features like Multi-Shot and Night mode. On the front, the handset bears a 5-megapixel camera for capturing selfies.
The company has added a fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone as well. Microsoft is likely to launch the device in a glossy black finish variant. The Micromax iOne Note is listed to offer a 3,950mAh battery. The brand claims that the device can deliver 500 hours of standby time, 8 hours of browsing time, and 18 hours of talk time. Besides, Micromax is yet to reveal the launch date of the Micromax iOne Note.
To recall, the original Micromax iOne phone was launched with a price label of Rs 4,999. This handset from Micromax is available in two color options, including Black and Blue. The entry-level phone offers a 19:9 notched screen, a single camera, and more.

Merge Enters the Lab Market
Medical imaging software vendor Merge Healthcare has acquired the laboratory information systems assets of Fletcher-Flora Health Care Systems Inc., Anaheim, Calif., for an undisclosed sum.
Milwaukee-based Merge did not acquire all of Fletcher-Flora, just certain assets, says Julie Pekarek, vice president of marketing at Merge. Those assets comprise Fletcher-Flora's five lab products, which is its complete product line aside from connectivity solutions. The home page of Fletcher-Flora's Web site states, "We are pleased to announce Fletcher-Flora is now a part of the Merge Healthcare family of health I.T. solutions."
Merge made the acquisition quietly, with the HIStalk blog first reporting it. Merge does not have information about the acquisition on its Web site, has issued no written statement and made no mention of the buy in a quarterly financial report issued in recent days. However, under the Products page of Merge's Web site now is a listing of Fletcher's five laboratory systems. "Having assets in the LIS space is a natural extension of the existing Merge solutions for overall EHR adoption," Pekarek says.

In his videographies, Christoph Brech explores new perspectives of familiar scenes. He films a conductor's back so that only the jacket's folds are visible as they move with the music ("Opus 110a"), or shoots distorted reflected images of buildings and trees by attaching his camera to the shiny surface of a Fiat Punto's hood as it drives through Rome ("Punto"). In Brech's works, the beholder always needs to re-orientate. By making the unconscious conscious, the hardly perceptible becomes the content of the work's image and is the focal point of interest. In this way, Christoph Brech succeeds in abstracting the concrete, defamiliarising the known by divorcing familiar situations from their context. Accompanied by noises or spheric music, which has an important place in his videographies, the artist allows the beholder to experience the lyricism of everyday life and the sensuousness of the moment.
Christoph Brech's works are like reveries – and revenants that haunt the space of making. For Rohkunstbau, Christoph Brech is showing "Il Ponte", his film of the Ponte alla Carraia in Florence with its constant stream of traffic and pedestrians. In this case, though, after shooting the reflection of the bridge in the River Arno in the rose-coloured haze of dusk, he then inverts the image by 180 degrees to use it as the real motif in his film. St the start of this videography, the sky and the river merge into one another, dissolving the structure of the image. The black silhouette of the bridge only gradually appears later – accompanied by the sombre sounds of Gustav Mahler's Adagietto. We are reminded of T.S. Eliot's lines from The Waste Land: "Unreal City, / Under the brown fog of a winter dawn, / A crowed flowed over London Bridge, so many, / I had not thought death had undone so many. / Sighs, short and infrequent, were exhaled, / And each man fixed his eyes before his feet."
These lyrical images show the early evening shortly before twilight, just as Wagner's Rheingold itself is described as the preliminary evening in his tetralogy "The Ring of the Nibelung".

Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival
Saturday morning, we drove down to Canby for the Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival. Canby is just south of Portland, so it was just far away enough to be a pleasant drive on a sunny day.
Now, this was my first real fiber festival, so I don't have any grounds for comparison, but it seemed pretty big to me. Lots of tents and tables, all full to bursting with fiber in every form and type of preparation and in a rainbow of colors, plus tools for spinning, knitting, weaving, and dyeing. Off to one side was a barn housing dozens of fiber-bearing animals – goats, sheep, alpacas, and rabbits – for the "flock" part of the festival. There were workshops and competitions of all types, and at noon I met several podcasters I've been listening to for some time.
I have to admit, it was more than a little overwhelming.
That's probably why I only ended up staying three hours. It was my first festival, so I didn't sign up for any workshops, and I was so overwhelmed by the sheer amount of product that I couldn't decide on much. (Also, since neither of us are really working, I didn't feel right spending much money.) Next show, though, I'm coming with a list, or at least some fairly specific goals. I have a much better idea of what's on offer, too, so I should be able to look at my equipment and stash and figure out what I need to buy. There was some gorgeous woodworking on display, and I looked at lots of spindles, shuttles, and swifts, niddy-noddies and nostepinnes. Looms: so large! Supported spindles: tempting! Fancy orifice hooks: charming but not really for me. And so on. So much yarn, so much fiber, and it was amazing to be able to feel various kinds of wools I've heard about. Shetland, and Blue-Faced Leicester, and Jacob (which is gorgeous!), Icelandic, angora and cashmere and yak.
Then there were the animals! Cashmere goats are adorable, guys. Angora rabbits are giant balls of fluff with ears and a twitchy nose, and most of them look like they will cut you. There were alpacas with poodle cuts, and a pair of twin nine-day-old goats, and sheep in every color that sheep come in, sometimes at the same time.
Of course, I'm sure you're all dying to know what I did end up buying.
I was determined to go around the entire festival before I bought anything, which I failed at. About halfway through, I made my first purchase of the day, which was for a fiber fairy for my craft room. (That's the redheaded doll up at the top of the post.) Honestly, I don't know if I made it through the entire festival or not. I know I saw everything that was outside, and I went through a couple of buildings and up onto a porch, but there might have been stuff I missed. There was just so much of it!
Anyway, I bought two kinds of fiber I haven't spun yet: an ounce of undyed German angora from a rabbit named George, and a small braid of silk in a gorgeous purple and blue colorway. The silk came from one of the tables in the barn – it seemed like most of the people who were showing animals had tables selling wares from their animals, frequently a combination of raw fibers, yarn, and finished objects. The picture doesn't really do the colorway justice, but it was the best one I could get. Isn't that incredibly vibrant for handpainted silk? Amazing.
One of the things that really excites me about going to new yarn stores is, unsurprisingly, the opportunity to check out new yarns. I listen to a lot of knitting podcasts, but I've only been knitting for a little over a year myself, so there is lots of fiber in the world that I've never had the opportunity to lay hands on. After today, I have the sneaking feeling that what I need is a list of yarn dyers that I can check off!
I finally got a glimpse of some of the beautiful colorways from Crown Mountain Farms, since they were one of the vendors in the indoor area, but a building cram-full of knitters and wool isn't exactly the place that you want to be on a hot day, let me tell you! I did manage to test some glass knitting needles (amazing, and so fast! but I can't really justify $40+ for a pair of needles) and I saw a pair of the Kollage square needles I've heard people talking about. Those were in the Carolina Homespun booth, which I wish I had more time to wander through, but again – inside was hot! Back outside I went, where I got the opportunity to handle some of the Barmaids' famous Lo-Lo bars (an abundance of scent choices meant I didn't actually end up buying anything – maybe next time!).
You couldn't swing a ball of yarn without hitting a spinner – they were all over the place. I almost wished that I brought my wheel, but without a portable chair, I couldn't have used her anyway. There was a gal in the Portland Spinnerati booth who was Navajo plying, and she taught me a few tricks that should make it easier to do next time, though. She was very friendly and welcoming, and told me about several local groups, including one here in Vancouver.
Then there was the Abstract Fiber booth, which I kept wandering into and out off most of the day. I'd walk in and start pawing beautiful colorways, then remind myself that I didn't need yarn, and walk myself back out again. Later, I'd find myself back again, fondling roving, which, again, I don't need any of. Abstract Fiber is a studio in Portland, and they create absolutely gorgeous handpainted yarn and fiber. I really can't say enough good things about it.
There was one thing I was keeping an eye peeled for, and that was grey alpaca yarn. The show seemed like the perfect opportunity to find something to add to the top of the alpaca handwarmers I picked up at Sock Dreams that didn't fit as tightly as I wanted to. Unfortunately, I'd completely forgotten to pick them up on the way out of the house that morning, so I didn't have them with me to match, and there are an awful lot of colors of grey out there. When I mentioned my problem, Jack suggested that I pick up something in a contrasting color instead. I had been admiring some alpaca handspun, but decided that it might look odd next to the decidedly machine-spun yarn the gloves were made of. Jack suggesting that I buy something to the purpose, though, was all the excuse I really needed to head straight back over to Abstract Fibers.
Now, the truth of the matter is that Jack is also a sucker for gorgeous colorways, and he tends to gravitate toward greens and blues above all else. (All but one pair of socks I've made for him are green, and I'm working on another. I think he might have a problem.) No one will be surprised, then, by the skein he picked up.
This colorway is called Deep Lake, and I may have looked at the yardage in the skein and promised him a pair of socks in addition to the edging of my handwarmers. It's a generous skein, and it should be easy to get both out of it.
We decided to head out then, rather than standing in the ridiculously long food line, and grab a late lunch elsewhere.
Add another pair of socks to my queue and some new fiber to my bin, and call my first fiber festival a success!

How BJP has become a suitable enemy for the Andhra Chief Minister
V Shoba | 31 Jan, 2019
Vangaveeti Radhakrishna's driveway is swarming with reporters. Like corpuscles rushing to a fresh wound, we coagulate around the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) leader and former MLA who is about to announce his departure from the party. We are here to verify a rumour that has spread like a patch of oil over Andhra Pradesh politics. "Are you joining the Telugu Desam Party?" 'Radha' neither confirms nor denies it. "Why?" a woman, speaking for a group of loyalists who seem ill-disposed towards the development, wants to know. Involuntarily tearing up, Radha replies, "Because there is no alternative." They cannot fathom his reasons for befriending a party that is thought to have backed the murderers of his father Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga Rao. Ranga, an MLA and a popular leader of the 1980s, was sharply critical of the TDP's pro-Kamma bias, and gave voice to the demands of Kapus, the single most populous community in the state who are, to this day, fighting for Backward Class status. On December 25th, 1988, Ranga was on indefinite fast demanding land rights for residents of Vijayawada when he was assassinated by members of a rival group allegedly led by TDP legislator Devineni 'Nehru' Rajasekhar. Over 40 people were killed in the caste-fuelled violence that ensued. Nehru surrendered, and the gang rivalry that had seen blood spilled on either side moved into the political space. Today, two smiling TDP leaders exit Radha's office, obviously thrilled to have an important Kapu leader bury the hatchet. Radha reportedly wanted to contest from the Vijayawada Central Assembly constituency, but Jagan Mohan Reddy, YSRCP founder and the leader of the Opposition in the state Assembly, overlooked him for another candidate. Could this signal a departure from customary caste rivalries in a state where surnames determine poll outcomes? Does it mean that the contest between Jagan Mohan Reddy's youthful charm and Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu's experience and self-aggrandising ambition is not as close as it seems? "Jagan does not know how to keep his flock together. He does not try to make leaders feel at home in the party. I have known him for years, but I don't see a future for myself in the YSRCP," Radha says.
Whatever his personal motivations, Radha's decision to make a fresh start is in line with Chandrababu Naidu's political philosophy. Since bifurcation, Naidu has marketed the state as a promised land where the past goes to die. The future, he wants you to believe, will belong to dreamers and visionaries, not to antagonists singing old tunes: actor and Janasena founder Pawan Kalyan and his seemingly uncontested claim over the Kapu vote upon his departure from the BJP-TDP alliance of 2014; Jagan, who is trying to surf the populist wave that crested when his father, the late YS Rajasekhara Reddy, won a second consecutive term as Chief Minister in 2009; and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who, Naidu believes, still harbours a grudge against him for his disapproval of Modi's leadership in the aftermath of the Godhra riots. Accusing him of pettiness unbecoming of a prime minister, Naidu, since pulling out of the NDA in March 2018, has railed against Modi for denying special category status to the newly- carved state. He has accused the Centre of tampering with the aspirations of his people by stalling demands for a new railway zone in Andhra Pradesh, a steel plant in Kadapa and a port at Dugarajapatnam in Nellore district. For a leader who considers himself a head and shoulders above other regional satraps, letting go of the NDA's coat-tails was as much emotional as it was strategic. Having endorsed Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's assurance that Andhra would get a package equivalent to that given to Special Category states, he felt betrayed and belittled when help did not come. With the opposition back home putting him on the stand for failing the state, he had to act swiftly or start planing the boards for his political coffin. In an election year, raking up resentment against the BJP was a stone that could be used to kill two birds—to win back his dignity and the trust of his people, and to reinvent himself as a hero siding with anti-BJP forces to arrest the decline of Indian democracy. Andhra Pradesh sends 25 members to the Lok Sabha, and by projecting Modi as the villain from the north, the TDP, which won 17 seats along with the BJP in the 2014 General Election, wants to edge the national party out of the state.
With pre-poll surveys giving an edge to the YSRCP in the Assembly elections, however, Naidu's propaganda machinery is in overdrive, headlining his achievements despite having to scrabble for funding, and calculating high approval ratings with data collected for a satisfaction survey spanning all government schemes and departments. "We have come a long way from NT Rama Rao's slogan of food, shelter, clothes in 1982," says Kesineni 'Nani' Srinivas, the TDP MP representing Vijayawada in the Lok Sabha. "We are not just building a capital, we are building a civilisation." The city, spread over a 217 sq km area on the banks of the Krishna river, is an uncompromising utopia that will cost Rs 48,000 crore to build and accommodate 3.5 million people. Its tallest structure, the AP Legislative Assembly building, will be 68 metres taller than the Statue of Unity—a symbol of Naidu's vision against Modi's. "He does not see local leaders as threats or even as competition," says a source close to him. "He is banking on Amaravati and the Polavaram irrigation project to do the heavy-lifting for him this election. If Kaleswaram decided the outcome in the Telangana polls, Polavaram, where 65 per cent construction has been completed, should definitely help us. This is why the CM closely monitors the project and wants the trial run, scheduled for May 30th, to go without a hitch." The Chief Minister's fixation on the capital's development, however, could hurt the party's prospects in outlying districts, he says. "We are perceived as pro-urban and our cadres are working hard to establish a foothold in Rayalaseema [a region comprising the four southern districts of Anantapur, Chittoor, Kadapa and Kurnool where the TDP won just 12 of the 52 Assembly seats in 2014, 10 of them from Anantapur]. We cannot afford to put all our eggs in one basket."
Hoping to score electoral points, rival leaders have been attacking Naidu on the cash-for-vote scam, delays in capital development and his government's failure to get financial assistance from the Centre
Accusing Modi of running a despotic regime and of being a "publicity-hungry leader" while himself purporting to construct a perfect world, Naidu is selling what is little more than a pipe dream today. The state has only managed to raise funds to the tune of Rs 11,300 crore—less than a fourth of the projected cost—towards building the city. According to an official at the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA), the nodal agency for the construction of the Greenfield city, projects worth Rs 27,000 crore are underway in Amaravati. SRM University, XLRI and the top names in five-star hospitality have been allotted large parcels of land. What you see on the ground, however, is a desolate valley, with a single road cutting through hills of moist river sand and excavated mud on one side and lush banana plantations on the riverfront. JCBs, trucks, concrete mixers and cranes, helmeted workers from West Bengal and Bihar and farmers with swanky cars who made crores selling their lands to speculators share this landscape. While the Andhra Pradesh government, soon after bifurcation, swung into action to acquire 33,000 acres via land pooling from 29 villages, construction has been slow, beset by revisions in plan, a severe cash crunch, litigation, environmental concerns and other external factors. Less than 40 per cent of the road infrastructure is ready, sources in the capital say, and no major buildings have come up.
In Penumaka, one of the last holdouts against forcible land acquistion by the government, an elevated road ends abruptly amidst fields. Driving a tractor through clouds of dust, Guntaka Naveen Kumar Reddy, 28, ploughs over a standing crop of onions. "Fetching a market price of Rs 4 a kilo, it's not worth tending to. We lost Rs 95,000 an acre on onion. But the banana crop is doing well," says Naveen, an engineer who started tending to the four-acre family farm after failing to land a job. "With land as fertile as this, one has an assured income every year. We can absorb losses arising from price fluctuations," adds Naveen, a YSRCP supporter. Youth are among the target votebanks this election for both the TDP and the YSRCP. Naidu hopes he can win them over with his unemployment benefit scheme, Mukhyamantri Yuvanestham. As of January 2019, of the 1.6 million youth who had applied to avail the monthly assistance of Rs 1,000, over 350,000 youth had benefited from the Yuvanestham scheme.
Jagan, who ended his 341-day, 3,648- km padayatra—his father's tried-and- tested way of making mass contact—in Srikakulam early this year, is seen as a youth and backward caste icon in the state, having won 67 of the 175 Assembly seats in the 2014 elections. The TDP won 102, polling only 2.06 per cent more votes than the YSRCP. In 26 seats that the YSRCP won and 14 seats that the TDP won, the margins were slender. Hoping to close the gap, Jagan has been attacking Naidu on the cash-for-vote scam, delays in capital development, and his government's failure to get financial assistance from the Centre. YSR, one of the most popular leaders the state has ever produced, and the architect of Rajiv Arogyasri, a landmark health insurance scheme, had fended off the TDP-led four-party alliance and actor Chiranjeevi's Praja Rajyam Party to emerge a hero in 2009. "By deciding to echo his father's promises and contesting alone, Jagan wants to prove that he is just as capable of winning an election," says a senior YSRCP leader. "If he had set aside his ego and joined forces with Pawan Kalyan, who may swing the Kapu vote this time around, together we would breeze through."
Jagan Mohan Reddy does not know how to keep his flock together. He does not try to make leaders feel at home in the party, says Vangaveeti Radhakrishna, former MLA of YSRCP
SOCIALLY OVERSHADOWED by Kammas and Reddys, Kapus make up about 27 per cent of the state's population and hold away over coastal districts in central Andhra, from East Godavari to Guntur. When Pawan Kalyan's brother, megastar Chiranjeevi, flung his hat into the ring in 2009, Kapus in these districts, who had traditionally voted for the Congress, saw a glimmer of hope, but allegations of cash-for-seat and party mismanagement spelled a swift end for the Praja Rajyam Party. The Kapu vote, however, now stood split between the Congress and the PRP. In 2014, the TDP made an effort at consolidation by promising 5 per cent reservation to the community and seeking the Janasena's support. Kapus have since mounted shrill protests against the government under the leadership of former Kakinada MP Mudragada Padmanabham. In December 2017, the TDP government was pressured into passing a Bill that gave reservation to Kapus by creating a new 'F' category in the list of Backward Classes. BCs enjoy 29 per cent reservation in the state, with another 15 per cent and 6 per cent set aside for SCs and STs respectively. The proposal to add 5 per cent for Kapus would take the total reservation pie up to 55 per cent, necessitating an amendment to Schedule-IX of the Constitution. Now, with the Centre's newly-passed Bill to give Economically Weaker Sections (EWSs) of the General Category 10 per cent reservations in jobs and education, the TDP has taken another crack at the Kapu reservation puzzle by promising the community half that new quota for the state. "It is obviously a poll gimmick that won't materialise—at least not before the state votes," says YSRCP spokesperson Ambati Rambabu. "There are two ghosts that will haunt the TDP this time around. The issue of Special Category status, and denying Kapus BC status."
In mid-2018, addressing a rally in Jaggampeta in East Godavari in the course of his Praja Sankalpa Yatra, Jagan made an unexpected move. "I cannot assure you that I will extend reservation to Kapus," he said, a statement that has been variously interpreted as a blunder, a misquote, and a brilliant ploy to attracts SCs. "The 29 SC constituencies hold the key for the YSRCP. It could be looking at making serious gains in the north-central districts, even as the TDP tries to woo back Muslim voters and hopes to see the results of the new projects and schemes benefiting Rayalaseema," says a strategist working with the ruling party. The TDP hopes that parts of Rayalaseema which have seen water for the first time in years thanks to the Pattiseema Lift Irrigation project to pump water from the Godavari to the Krishna, will cast a favourable vote.
The TDP has been sidling up to Pawan Kalyan, who is yet to pick an alliance partner, while accusing Jagan of being "cultivated" by the Telangana Rashra Samithi (TRS) and the BJP. "We have been careful to keep a distance from the BJP. It is toxic to be associated with them in Andhra," says Rambabu. After the disastrous alliance with the Congress in the 2018 Telangana Assembly elections, the TDP, too, is careful not to seem too close to the national party. "With the country polarised between Rahul Gandhi and Modi, there is a sense that national parties will only bring us down in the Assembly polls. This is a new era in Andhra Pradesh politics where we are each fighting our own battles," says a senior TDP leader.
While Naidu waits for Amaravati to take shape, the party will use investments in bifurcated Andhra Pradesh by marquee companies like Kia Motors, Isuzu, PepsiCo, Apollo Tyres, Foxconn, Greenply and Suzlon Energy as grafts on the stump. "Development may not win an election, but it gives a ruling party the confidence to go to the people," says Kesineni.
Naidu's confidence, however, stems from his ability to negotiate the information battlefield. And he does it from a futuristic facility housed in the temporary secretariat in Amaravati, where he measures his own popularity across a 68-ft- wide screen. The Real Time Governance Centre tracks satisfaction levels among the state's 45.9 million population, using a complaint redressal and feedback loop to assign scores to each of the government's 26 flagship programmes, 2,624 projects, 23 departments and 130-plus schemes. The centre employs over 200 people, including subject matter experts and data scientists, whose job is to spot leaks in the public benefits system, report on the socioeconomic status of every household enumerated in the government's Praja Sadhikara Survey, predict and respond to natural disasters using cameras and weather satellite data. Adding another layer to the information hub is the 1100 call centre network, where 179,72,386 grievances have been recorded till date. Each grievance is sorted under the relevant department or scheme, and a callback is arranged upon resolution to ensure the complainant registers her feedback on the system. These calls are then used to calculate the satisfaction level of the department concerned. The public distribution system, for instance, had an abysmal satisfaction rate until a couple of years ago; after leakages of Rs 1,600 crore were plugged using RTGC- generated data, it has climbed to over 80 per cent now. "The CM is particular that the overall approval ratio of his government should be 80 per cent or more. It is at 76 per cent at the moment," says a data scientist working at the Centre.
There is no way, though, to measure the public erosion of trust in Chief Minister Naidu following his volte-face on the need for Special Category status for Andhra Pradesh. Step out of the secretariat, with its golf carts and dummy electric car stations, to look into the gaping excavation pits of Amaravati, and you can't help but wonder who can fill the political vacuum in Andhra Pradesh.

Certain homeowners may be eligible for a reverse mortgage (HECM) – a kind of loan that allows you to draw cash from the equity in your home without having to make payments for as long as you live in the home. But it's not the right fit for everyone.
In order to qualify for a reverse mortgage loan, you must:
- Be 62 years of age or older
- Own your home as your principal residence, preferably with a low loan balance
- Own a home that meets FHA requirements
Federal law requires, in order to take advantage of a reverse mortgage (HECM), that you obtain counseling from a HUD-certified agency, such as the Wyoming Housing Network. Counseling ensures that you receive independent information, and fully understand the terms of your loan and your options.
Wyoming Housing Network can help you learn more, and navigate the process.
If you require help due to a disability or language barrier, please contact Wyoming Housing Network for assistance.

A Dark Dividing by Sarah Rayne: haunting, beautiful, gripping, compelling, confusing. It tells the stories of two sets of conjoined twins, born almost a century apart; their lives become gradually more intertwined as the story unfolds to its bittersweet climax. The diary entries from Charlotte, mother of the twins born in 1900, are reminiscent of a Bridget Jones of old times: the writing is refreshing in its honesty and the hints of humour throughout only bring more poignancy to an already fantastic read.
Definitely recommended.

Our universities are just as religious as they used to be, only the religion has changed. With blinding speed, the sexual revolutionaries are moving on from the cause of gay marriage to recasting and rethinking law, culture, religion, and biology for the sake of indulging the troubled fantasies of a tiny, disturbed population of transgendered, or "genderqueer," Americans. Nowhere is that trend more advanced than in colleges and universities, where entirely new policy and education infrastructures are being created to cater to transgender students, and — critically — suppress dissenting views of sexuality and morality, in the name of "safety."

Turning graphene into light nanosensors (Vol. 49 No.5-6)
Tuning the graphene embedded in a photonic crystal by varying the external temperature can transform it into a light-sensitive sensor
Graphene has many properties; it is e.g. an extremely good conductor. But it does not absorb light very well. To remedy this limiting aspect of what is an otherwise amazing material, physicists resort to embedding a sheet of graphene in a flat photonic crystal, which is excellent for controlling the flow of light. The combination endows graphene with substantially enhanced light-absorbing capabilities. In a new study published recently, the authors demonstrate that, by altering the temperature in such a hybrid cavity structure, they can tune its capacity for optical absorption. They explain that it is the thermal expansion and thermo-optical effects which give the graphene these optical characteristics. Potential applications include light sensors, ultra-fast lasers, and systems capable of modulating incoming optical beams.

Two of the biggest film soundtracks of the past several years. Massive chart successes from acts well into their second decade of stardom. One of the last rock bands still ruling the pop charts. An inescapable radio smash pairing a Russian-born DJ and a Nashville singer-songwriter. And a flurry of fast-breaking young acts, including two soulful sirens named Ella and Billie. Not only did Interscope Records have a year to remember, but its hits covered the waterfront of genres more thoroughly than any label in 2018 could have hoped.
For Interscope chairman and CEO John Janick, the past year has offered proof that his steady, unflashy style of label leadership can pay big dividends. Now 40, Janick was an unexpected pick to succeed longtime Interscope head Jimmy Iovine at one of UMG's flagship imprints six years ago. The Florida native made his name running the self-started indie outfit Fueled by Ramen (launchpad for pop-punk acts including Jimmy Eat World, Paramore and Fall Out Boy), and helped relaunch Elektra Records at Warner. But while some initially wondered if he'd look to remake the house that Dr. Dre and Eminem built in his own image, Janick had other ideas.
At the beginning, "there were definitely people that would go, 'What kind of music do you want to sign?'" Janick recalls. "Because I came more from the alternative side and crossed into pop, they'd be like, 'Obviously you want to do that.' And I said no, 'I want to do what Interscope has always done, which is find the best artists in every genre.'"
And that's precisely what he's been doing. Though a number of Interscope's biggest 2018 successes came via acts that were already established before his arrival — Maroon 5's "Girls Like You," Imagine Dragons' "Believer," and the double-shot of Kendrick Lamar's "Black Panther" and Lady Gaga's "A Star Is Born" soundtracks, which lead a film music push that looks set to continue with the Mike Will Made It-produced "Creed II" companion and the Interscope-backed Elle Fanning starrer "Teen Spirit." Yet 2018 saw a number of Janick's newer signings really begin to ascend the upper echelons.
None broke bigger quicker than teenage Chicago rapper Juice Wrld. While young hip-hop acts are increasingly expected to enter into label negotiations with a demonstrable track record of SoundCloud plays and social-media notoriety, Juice was signed the old-fashioned way.
"He came into the office in February of this year, and it didn't seem like there were a ton of people on him," Janick says. "He didn't have much going on in terms of a fanbase, didn't have that many streams, but the music was just amazing. It was one of those gut/ear things where you know something's great and feel people are really gonna connect with it."
Juice promptly broke into rap radio with singles "All Girls Are the Same" and "Lucid Dreams," and his debut full-length, which dropped in May, "is at platinum or will be platinum by the end of the year."
New signings don't always move so quickly. Ella Mai was first spotted back in 2015 by DJ Mustard, with whom Interscope has a label deal. She didn't break immediately, releasing a slew of EPs, but when San Francisco's KMEL started pushing her single "Boo'd Up," the label worked overtime to translate that radio momentum to streaming, birthing a hit. Rapper Rich the Kid, signed in 2017 after years of mixtapes, finally became a household name this year with "Plug Walk." And Interscope's most obvious smash of the year, Zedd, Grey and Maren Morris' "The Middle," went through multiple versions — and vocalists — before settling into its sweet spot.
"Throughout my career, I've always had those records that you wanna get perfect," Janick says. "Of course you don't want to just sit on them, but when you have a song you feel will stand the test of time, it doesn't matter if it comes out six months or a year from now.
"You look at someone like a Billie Eilish," he says of the now-16-year-old rising Interscope singer. "She had [breakout single] 'Ocean Eyes' out when we signed her, but she was a 14-year-old girl. [The song] had some numbers attached to it, but we were telling her and her family, who were her managers at the time, 'Look, you're 14, you need to find out who you are and take your time developing, and not be stuck in a system where they do a deal and want a return on their investment right away.' And I think it's paid off in a big way."
Janick, who had to take time off last year to recover from cancer and says he's doing much better now and is "hopefully past all of it," aims to continue building with Eilish, as well as nascent talents including Sheck Wes, Yungblud, Lil Mosey and Summer Walker. But there are also times when patience is less of a virtue. Just half a year after the release of the indifferently received "Revival," no one at the label would've been expecting a new Eminem album any time soon, but the rapper and his longtime manager Paul Rosenberg called Janick up to Detroit to spring a surprise late in the summer: A new album, "Kamikaze," that the rapper wanted to drop unannounced.
"We showed up on a Thursday, and he literally wanted to put it out that Friday," Janick remembers. "So fortunately we were able to have conversations saying, 'Just give us a LITTLE bit of time to set up.' … But obviously, Marshall [aka Eminem] and Paul are so smart, they've been doing this such a long time and know their fanbase, so while we always wanna make sure they have all the information, we also listen. That's how Marshall wanted to release that music, and he was right. I think if he would've released it in a different way, it might not have had the same impact."

Consider this scenario: A startup in the artificial intelligence (AI) space develops a unique algorithm. A larger AI firm is interested in this algorithm but isn't sure it'll work. The larger company doesn't want to buy the startup, but it wants a foot in the door on the new technology and is willing to invest. The startup needs funds but is concerned about the competitive issues created by giving the larger company a board seat and waiving the corporate opportunity doctrine.
"A smaller company is under pressure — in this scenario or others like it — to waive the corporate opportunity doctrine," says Sara M. Antol, shareholder at Babst Calland. "Before you do that, stop and think about what this will mean. You need to determine whether there's room to compromise with tailored language that serves the purposes of both the company and the investor."
Smart Business spoke with Antol and Christian A. Farmakis, shareholder and chairman of the board at Babst Calland, about the corporate opportunity doctrine.
What is the corporate opportunity doctrine?
The corporate opportunity doctrine is part of the duty of loyalty imposed upon corporate fiduciaries. It's not uncommon for a business owner or entity to invest in another company. If the investment is significant, the investor may demand a board seat to help influence the policies and operations of the company. If this person finds out about an opportunity as a board member, the corporate opportunity doctrine stops that director or officer from personally benefitting from an opportunity that would belong to the corporation, if it meets a four-pronged test:
- If the corporation is financially able to exploit the opportunity.
- If the opportunity is within the corporation's line of business.
- If the corporation has an interest or expectation relating to the opportunity.
- If by taking the opportunity, the officer or director is placed in a position adverse or in conflict with the corporation.
How did it become commonplace for this doctrine to be waived?
As private investment increased, investors saw the potential conflict created by the duty of loyalty if they acted to maximize their interests while serving on a board. In 2000, Delaware amended its general corporation law to allow companies to expressly waive that duty in their certificate of incorporation. Since then, other states have adopted similar provisions, such as Pennsylvania's limited liability company law in 2016.
Today, it's common for companies to waive the corporate opportunity doctrine. Form investment documents, especially with private equity, often include this language.
Why would a company invest in a competitor and how does it create conflict?
A bigger company looking for the next big thing might invest in startups within its market space. Then, it can leverage the product or technology when the opportunity matures. Frequently, these startups are searching for capital and willing to agree to investment from a larger competitor.
The conflict arises when the larger company wants a waiver of the corporate opportunity doctrine in the investment documents. This allows the larger company to operate in its market space, which is shared by both companies, without restriction. The smaller company, though, may justifiably have concerns about future competition from the larger company.
How can companies find a compromise?
The waiver language can be tailored to address the areas and issues where the two companies might most likely compete. For example, if the larger company ends up competing with the smaller company under the waiver, the investor could lose some investor rights — investor rights that you wouldn't want a competitor to have, like a board seat, monthly financial information or information about customer opportunities. Instead, perhaps the board seat converts to observer rights and the investor is limited to only receiving annual financial information.
There's room to negotiate and countless scenarios could be proposed, so founders need to think carefully and assess the situation before agreeing to waive the corporate opportunity doctrine. At the very least they'll have their eyes open to the risks and know what they're giving up by agreeing to this waiver.

Almost since Beach Slang came into being, bandleader James Alex has taken to performing his group's heartfelt anthems as more intimate solo renditions.
Appropriately dubbed "Quiet Slang," these alternate reality versions of Beach Slang's music have now simultaneously been stripped down and fleshed out in the studio to include piano and cello. The result is a collection of songs on a 7", that peel away the layers of reverb and distortion to lay bare their starkly honest and emotional cores.

Daily Read - 1 Samuel 10:1-11:15; John 6:43-71; Psalm 107:1-43; Proverbs 15:1-3
John 6:63-64
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.
The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
But there are some of you who do not believe."
Proverbs 15:2
The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly,
But the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness.
You are a supernatural being infused with My DNA and divine nature. You are created and equipped to flow and live from the place of your regenerated spirit man at all times. It is the Spirit that brings life not only to you, but also to those I send your way.
As you walk into your day remember, the flesh profits absolutely nothing. The words I speak are spirit and life and can only be understood by your spirit. Your natural mind cannot grasp spiritual revelation; in fact, if you even try interpreting what I say through the filter of your unsubmitted mind, it will sound like babble making no sense to your logic or reason.
The facts are the facts; you are a spirit housed temporarily in a body and soul. The problem does not lie with your spirit because it recognizes and receives spiritual things; the problem is with your unruly soul. It is from this place, doubt and unbelief set up camp.
As My child, you have the authority and responsibility to chase out all illegal campers who have taken ground in your mind. Do not ask Me to do something that I have given you the ability to do yourself. You are the only one with the power to rein in your will.
The fruit is evident when My people walk in the Spirit; and likewise, there is abundant fruit when My people walk in the flesh. It is very distinguishable by those onlookers in the world. An example of this is found in
Proverbs 15:2, the tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, but the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness.
Those led by My Spirit discern how and when to speak. They only share what I say to them when released to do so. On the other hand, the mouth of the fleshy fool pours out uncontrollably revealing the true condition of their heart. Out of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Instead of speaking life-changing revelation, they speak empty, unprofitable words bringing humiliation. How many words come from your flesh profiting nothing for My Kingdom compared to those words birthed from your divine nature?
Remember, I am not the only one who hears your words; the enemy intentionally positions himself to capitalize on anything spoken from the flesh. His ears tune into the dark and negative because that is his nature. He recognizes flesh a mile away. Give the enemy what he deserves; speak words of life and watch him flee away.
Let your words be few and let them bring life.
James 1:19-20
So then, my beloved brethren,
let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;
for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
Lord Jesus, I am a new creature, old things have passed away and behold, I am new. Forgive me for resurrecting the old dead man and living from that place. I have Your DNA and divine nature pulsating through every part of my being. I repent for the times I choose to walk contrary to Your ways because it seems more natural. Well, it is natural, but I am supernatural. The two do not mix! As an act of my will, I choose to walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the desires of the flesh. I want what flows from my mouth to bring life and healing, not destruction and decay. I want a life filled with fruit and profiting in every area. I choose to walk in Your ways, for therein lies abundant life. Amen!

The Meadow Vale project will see the completion of a £100,000 regeneration of a run-down building in Speedwell, which will become a focal point for the area.
According to Jim Currie, Rotary Club of Bristol President, the new centre will host a community café, a retirement and youth club, a mother and toddlers group, as well as hosting a series of classes, including cookery.
He said, "This project was hard to begin with and took a while to take off, but I was keen to make it work and provide something valuable for my community."
Speedwell, which lies to the east of Bristol, is regarded as one of the poorest and most neglected areas in the city.
Jim explained that the area was ethnically diverse featuring 32 different nationalities which needed this major lift to allow it to prosper. He said, "There are practically no facilities or services for the local population."
Backed by a number Bristol-based community trusts, this initiative has been made possible by fundraising efforts of the Rotary club.
This has been a long process but we have succeeded."
Jim added, "Together with the community association, we have raised £100,000 and we have just completed a major refurbishment.
"This has been a long process but we have succeeded."
The team's hard work will conclude later this month, on the 23rd June, when Lord-Lieutenant Mrs Peaches Golding OBE officially opens the building.
The Rotary Club of Bristol began in 1917. Now, a year after the planning began, the club can proudly say it completed its centenary project promptly.
Jim said that he was keen to mark the club's centenary year with a major community project and revealed that Rotary members would be volunteering with some of the clubs at the centre.
He said, "Here is Rotary working successfully, in partnership, to help rebuild communities in a deprived area of one of the UK's leading cities. Rotary will stay involved to help with community development.
"The complex is the third leg of a vital hub. There is a nursery and a children's centre, which leads onto a park area."

The Reporter: Suiting word to deed
Inasmuch as the EPRDF's successes during its 23-year incumbency deserve recognition, the shortcomings which characterized its administration also need to be addressed lest it is not lulled into a sense of complacency. We are motivated by nothing else but a fervent desire to see a stable and peaceful Ethiopia when we bring up the EPRDF's shortcomings. After all, citizens who genuinely wish our country to be democratic and prosperous have to be able to engage in a frank dialogue on all subjects if we are to move forward as a nation.

Marchesa's Collection for Spring 2015 Bridal Is Pure Romance
For Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman and co-founder Keren Craig, their spring 2015 bridal collection was all about returning to the brand's roots, presenting a romantic 20-piece collection that was the very embodiment of Marchesa's trademark aesthetic, with dramatic ball skirt silhouettes, re-embroidered lace numbers, and cascading layers of silk tulle.
Each model glided through the event space at NYC's Canoe Studios, navigating her way around tables of editors, buyers (and Jamie Chung), and pausing to pose occasionally for all to capture and take in the embroidery and exquisite detailing. While ethereal floor-sweeping gowns served as the bulk of the collection, there were alternate shorter cocktail-length dresses as well, including a corded lace tea-length design and a darling cap-sleeve re-embroidered lace creation.
Color also made an appearance, but subtlety so. Three instances of gowns were washed in the palest blush pink—so pale, it was practically a whisper of the shade. Something else worth noting: Each bride teamed her lace pumps with fine Chantilly lace socks—a bridal trend in the making, perhaps?

Ford's awesome off-roader gains two real doors, drops its base engine, and picks up a few new toys.
We've been enamored with the F-150 SVT Raptor ever since Ford unveiled the truck nearly two years ago. The off-road capability, toughness, and all-round bad-ass-ness quickly made the Raptor a C/D favorite. It's clear we weren't the only ones, as Ford claims that Raptors stay on dealer forecourts for a quarter of the time standard F-150s linger—just 11 days, compared to more than a month for Ford's lesser trucks. For 2011, Ford is expanding the Raptor's appeal by adding a four-door SuperCrew model to the mix.

Her shapely legs looked amazing in her super high suede boots and tiny silk cocktail dress He soon sucking o her tiny polished toes and then he worked his way up her thigh to her cunt. She then sat on his hard dick, facing backwards, that he got a good look at her firm ass sliding up and down on his stiff pole. He then pushed her off and fucked her ass in this hardcore video from Bounty Hunters Porn. He then pulled out to spurts his jizz all over her butt cheeks.

Want to use this letter?
100 Main Street, New Parkland, CA, 91010
Pastor Brad Willis
New Haven Youth Church
100 Broadway Lane
New Parkland, CA, 91010
Dear Pastor Willis,
This letter serves as my notice of resignation for my Ministry position with New Haven Youth Church and my position as Youth Crusade leader. It is now time for me to continue on my life's path and go to college.
My time at New Haven has been unbelievably rewarding. I cannot explain to you the joy I feel when a troubled teen suddenly announces that they are doing well in school or have repaired their relationship with their parents and then credit New Haven's programs. I have cried many tears of joy at New Haven and I can only hope to find a similar situation when I graduate from college.
I recommend turning over all of my ministry and Youth Crusade duties to Josh Hampton. He is both qualified to take over those programs and anxious to get started. Josh would make a fine ministry candidate and would lead the teens well.
I would be more than willing to stay on for two more weeks if you need me to. If you need to contact me to discuss this, please feel free to call me at 555-564-5543 or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Sincerely Yours,
Adam T. Henry

Ironman 70.3 Eagleman - Triathlon
View Member's Race Log View other race reports
Pre-race routine:
Woke up at 2am and couldn't get back to sleep. Finally got up around 3:45am, started drinking some water, and headed toward Cambridge around 4:15. Got everything set up in transition (slowly but surely, it'd been a while!), then waited for the swim start.
Event warmup:
Nothing fancy here, just some nervous walking around.
This went a lot better than I was expecting. I was very pleased that they went with the self-seeding for the swim (vs. by age group). I was surprised there were not more people up front that did not belong there. They had everyone enter the water single file which helped prevent overcrowding early on.
What would you do differently?:
Practice more OWS and sighting.
Transition 1
Wetsuit strippers are the best thing ever. I was pretty gassed after the swim, so the loooooong run into transition from the water was a bit slower than it could have been.
What would you do differently?:
Not much really, wanted to take my time and be methodical. Maybe practice transitions more.
Really was pretty confident I was not going to overcook like I did for NOLA. For the most part, that was the case. For some reason thought, my legs were jelly after I hopped off the bike and it was downhill from there.
What would you do differently?:
More training, but this was the most I'd ever trained. Just need to keep it up.
Transition 2
I was pretty gassed after the bike. My legs were in bad shape and I was not looking forward to the run at all.
What would you do differently?:
Keep training, keep practicing transitions.
Ouch. Made it two miles, legs were already locking up. Started walking after that and the rest of the day was pretty miserable.
What would you do differently?:
Bricks....had zero in the run up to this race.
Post race
Warm down:
Walking around, then sitting.
What limited your ability to perform faster:
Training in hot weather. Maybe not taking four years off between races next time!
Event comments:
There's a reason this race has been put on for such a long time. Branded races always have incredible support, and this one was no exception. The volunteers were plentiful and awesome. Wish the post-race food had been something other than pizza!

A second O.C.-based nursery business has filed for bankruptcy, citing the slowdown in the housing market and the economic meltdown as factors leading to its cash-flow problems.
Bordier's Nursery Inc. of Irvine, one of the nation's 25 largest producers of wholesale plants sold by such retailers as Lowes, Home Depot and Target, reported a net loss of nearly $5 million in 2007 and $13.5 million in 2008. Sales total about $53 million a year. A declaration by newly appointed CEO Mark Berchiolli states:
"With the difficult economy and the slowing of (the) real estate market, including the building of new homes and the need for landscaping, there is currently an over-supply of inventory due to decreased demand at the retail level."
The company attempted to find new financing and new financial partners, but was unable to do so in the current economic climate, the declaration said.
The 86-year-old nursery filed a Chapter 11 petition two days before Christmas. The firm, which had about 700 employees (420 in Irvine) prior to the filing, leases about 216 acres in Irvine from the Irvine Co. and Lennar Corp. It also owns or leases about 600 acres in Ventura County. It's operation of the 175-acre Christmas tree farm near Escondido, Pinery Tree Farms, was discontinued just before the bankruptcy filing, and 85 employees were laid off.
According to court records, the firm owes about $47 million to two secured creditors and about $5 million to more than 900 unsecured creditors, including nearly $165,000 to Lennar.
In August, a Bordier's competitor, Irvine-based Hines Horticulture, also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. According to Berchiolli's declaration, Hines' assets were sold last month to Black Diamond, a hedge fund.
Bordier's began as a family-owned retail operation in 1922, according to Berchiolli, but began working exclusively as a wholesaler in 1950. It sells ornamental shrubbery, color and perennial plants, roses, poinsettias and, until last month, Christmas trees. Its clients include about 2,000 big-box outlets, mass merchandisers and small garden centers primarily throughout the West, Berchiolli's declaration said.

Sharing the Good News
This week in history, December 24-30:
- The first God Conference is held (December 26, 1981)
- The Little Angels perform at the United Nations (December 27, 1973)
- A letter from God is received from the spirit world (December 28, 2001)
- International Cross-Cultural (Gyocha) Marriage Blessing Ceremony is held (December 29, 2005)
December 26, 1981
The First God Conference
The first God Conference, entitled "God: The Contemporary Discussion," was held from December 22 to 31, 1981 on the island of Maui, Hawaii. Dr. Frederick Sontag, distinguished professor of philosophy at the University of Pomona and author of Sun Myung Moon and the Unification Church (Abingdon, 1977), suggested the conference as an "internal" equivalent of the annual International Conference on the Unity of the Sciences (ICUS). The conference attracted 170 participants from 33 countries and all major religious traditions. Seventy-five papers were presented, 22 of which were selected for inclusion in a resulting book, God: The Contemporary Discussion (1982).
The Youth Seminar on World Religions (YSWR) emerged out of the first God Conference. From 1982 to 1984 it sponsored annual seven-week around-the-world pilgrimages to sites associated with the religious traditions of Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Unificationism for 150 students and professors. This expanded the movement's ecumenical and inter-religious network and involved religious scholars of the highest rank, including Huston Smith, author of The World's Religions and one of the country's foremost authorities on world faiths, who with his wife co-chaired the first two Youth Seminars and served as chair of the fourth God Conference.
December 27, 1973
Little Angels Benefit Performance at the United Nations
True Father conceived the idea of forming a Korean children's dance troupe "as a means of promoting world peace and sharing the Korean culture throughout the world." He asked Dr. Bo Hi Pak to take responsibility for assembling the group. Dr. Pak agreed, and he traveled back and forth between the United States and Korea in developing the "Little Angels" from 1962 to 1964. The Little Angels' inaugural tour of the United States in 1965 was difficult, and in many cases "the performers outnumbered the audience." However, their tours were increasingly successful, and by 1971 they had performed on national television, at the 1968 Summer Olympic Games at Mexico City, and before numerous heads of state including U.S. President Richard Nixon and President Park Chung-hee of the Republic of Korea, as well as at a Royal Command Performance before Queen Elizabeth II, who broke with protocol by receiving the performers and greeting each of them, escorted by Dr. Pak. On December 27, 1973, the United Nations opened its General Assembly Hall for the first time for a cultural performance, a gala benefit for UNICEF by the Little Angels. TheNew York Times reviewer wrote, "Judging from the standing ovation the children received, their performance of sometimes exotic national dance to music played on replicas of ancient Korean instruments has a universal appeal." True Parents also received a standing ovation when they were introduced as The Little Angels' founders.
December 28, 2001
Letter from God
True Father understood Cheon Il Guk to be the nation of cosmic peace and unity. As such, it encompassed not only the visible world but the totality of creation, both physical and spiritual. As he expressed it, "The world has entered an age in which the spirit world and physical world can become one and communicate freely with each other." Communication with the spirit world was nothing new to the Unification movement. In fact, since 1935 when he encountered and experienced a divine call from Jesus, True Father had carried on a ministry to spirit world in parallel with his ministry on earth. For most of that time this was not a matter of public knowledge. With the proclamation of Cheon Il Guk this changed. True Father insisted that messages from the spirit world be disseminated as widely as possible.
The most prominent of these was "The Cloud of Witnesses," a collection of messages which derived from "seminars" in the spirit world, initially for four religious founders (Jesus, Buddha, Confucius and Muhammad) and subsequently for leaders in their traditions as well as for famous communists. The "Cloud of Witnesses" messages culminated in a "Letter from God," addressed to "My beloved True Parent" and dated December 28, 2001. If True Father's lifelong goal was "to melt the block of ice frozen in the heart of God," the letter indicated that he had succeeded.
God, who self-identified as "Jehovah, the God of all humankind," stated: "My gratitude and appreciation for you is beyond words. The word 'love' is inadequate to express My feelings. … I want to embrace you in My bosom and never let you go! I would carry you on My back and never let your feet touch the ground! I would hold you, and we would talk together all night long." Apart from this, God validated True Father's position, stating, "You have been victorious on every level and have restored to its proper position everything that had fallen. … Hence, Jehovah, the God of all humankind, hereby bestows upon His beloved True Parent the title King of all kings." The Unification Church subsequently published "The Cloud of Witnesses" and "Letter from God" in space purchased from leading newspapers in all fifty states.
December 29, 2005
International Cross-Cultural (Gyocha) Marriage Blessing Ceremony
True Parents conducted a Gyocha, "cross-cultural" Marriage Blessing between all cultures, races and religions on December 29, 2005. True Father also opened the gate for all who were blessed but lost their spouse due to divorce to be re-blessed. Grace was opened for all. True Father matched second-generation Unificationist couples and first-generation Unificationist couples and gave the responsibility to all continental directors of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) to heal the families through matching of previously blessed couples with one another and allowing them to be blessed. The Gyocha Blessing of 1,147 Couples was conducted at Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center.
This Week in History briefly lists significant events in the history of the Unification Church, the lives of the Founders, and world events that are momentous to Unificationists. Most items are marked according to the solar calendar. Items marked "H.C." correspond to the Cheon-gi or Heavenly Calendar, which is based on the lunar calendar. This installment covers the week of December 24–30.

Improv Foundation WS at Studio Gokko Christiane teaching
Just a reminder that workshops are now at Studio Gokko! You can get there in about a ten-minute walk from the following stations: Hatsudai, Hatagaya, Yoyogi-koen, and Yoyogi-hachiman.
The GPS should take you right there, but just in case, we are very close to a restaurant called Hoff:
We're in an orange-tiled building with a cleaners and glass shop on the first floor, and our door is on the very left-hand side, next to the glass shop, which will probably be closed by 7pm and has グラスwritten on the shutter.
Starting in April I will be teaching the 1st and 3rd Foundation class and Huw the 2nd and 4th. Weekend improv will continue on a more varied schedule than before, due to our expanded impro programming in Japanese.
Here's where you begin your improv journey! Come and join other beginners and intermediate improvisors on Monday in exploring this most fascinating of art forms. Improv will make you faster on your feet, a better listener, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!
Our Impro Foundation Program has weekly classes on Mondays and usually at least one monthly 4-hour weekend intensive on a Saturday or Sunday. Workshops are taught by Huw Lloyd and TCS Director Chris Wells, with other members of the professional Improvazilla Show cast substituting when necessary.
Workshops are held at Studio Gokko near Yoyogi-Koen and Hatagaya from 7-9pm, though we can go over a bit when the spirit of improv and size of the class require it, and cost ¥2,000.
We work on improv techniques, from the fundamentals of character creation to the complexities of scene work. You'll learn some of the games you've seen on TV or stage and how to play them well and tell great stories at the same time. Whether you're a beginner or intermediate improvisor, you'll find the classes challenging and fun!
Students usually go to a nearby restaurant after the class to chat and get to know one another, so it's educational and social! :)
The Improv Foundation Workshops are open workshops, so any native-level English speaker is free to come and give it a try.
Diversity Policy
We strive to create a welcoming atmosphere for everyone, regardless of minority status. Continued participation is at the discretion of the instructors. So be positive and nice to your fellow improvisors!
Improvisor Resources
Check the Improv Resources page on our website, www.improvazilla.com, for lots of information on terminology, games, and more!
And join us on FB:
Hope to see you at Our Space,
Chris and Huw

Wolf Goes Fishing, Catches Nice Salmon
This Wolf in Alaska goes fishing and catches a very nice Salmon to take home to the family. The big score takes place in the Katmai National Park and is a rare sight to see two top predators this close.
Most of the time a big bear would run off any competition for food but with the salmon run just getting under way why not share. The Wolf was no fool he came in got his fish and beat feet.
If you look you can see the Bear watches the wolf but doesn't bother just keeps on fishing himself.

Wraps are a convenient option for packing lunch or a quick dinner. You may make the wrap with chappathi/roti or even tortilla. I have chosen a saucy mushroom filling for this recipe. Actually this special wrap was shown in TV this week when I was changing channels for my Kids. Everyone knows about Mushroom wraps.But here in that show she incorporated Lima beans along with the mushroom. Please try this protein packed recipe.
Check out other Dinner ideas and Lunch Box varieties
Prep time
Cook time
15 mins

2 persons
Cuisine: Indian
Recipe Type: Wraps
1. Heat oil in pan .Add onions, ginger garlic paste and sauté till onions are soft. Add lima beans and little water for cooking.
2. Add mushrooms and salt and combine well. Cover and cook till mushroom is done. Mushroom releases lot of water, so no need for the addition of water.
3. After mushrooms are cooked and water is evaporated, add tomato ketchup with other spice powders and sauté well. Garnish with coriander leaves
4. Take a roti and do the filling at the center. Wrap the bottom and sides.
5. My family was having it immediately so I wrapped it with tissue paper.
- If you are packing it for lunch, wrap in a foil or cling film.
- The wrapping I used here is our normal daily routine Chapati.

Today we'd like to introduce you to Tony Rutigliano.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don't you give us some details about you and your story.
For approximately six years, I had the privilege of heading up the Downtown Arlington Management Corporation. The DAMC is the organization tasked with the revitalization efforts in downtown Arlington. During my tenure, I had the pleasure of helping many people realize their dreams of starting a new business. This inspired me to consider starting my own. Approximately two years later, we are just a couple of weeks away from opening the doors at Urban Alchemy Coffee + Wine Bar! It's been an amazing journey that wouldn't have been possible without the support of so many people along the way.
Has it been a smooth road?
The road definitely hasn't been smooth, but it's been very rewarding and fulfilling. I learned fairly early that Plan B is an acceptable alternative. Expect the unexpected!
We'd love to hear more about your business.
We are a coffee and wine bar, and we specialize in building community. We will strive to be Arlington's living room. A place where people will come together to celebrate, collaborate and build friendships. Our wine will be sourced from around the world, but we'll make it very approachable and fun. We'll make you feel at home whether you're a wine aficionado or a novice. We are proud to be a part of the Arlington community, especially the downtown community.
Is our city a good place to do what you do?
I think Arlington is a great place to start a business!
