An essay on politics In this essay I will consider the social, economic factors of politics. At first glance politics may seem unenchanting, however its study is a necessity for any one wishing to intellectually advance beyond their childhood. Remarkably politics is heralded by shopkeepers and investment bankers alike, leading many to state that it is yet to receive proper recognition for laying the foundations of democracy. It still has the power to shock those politicaly minded individuals living in the past, trapped by their infamous history. Complex though it is I shall now attempt to provide an exaustive report on politics and its numerous 'industries'. Social Factors Comparisons

Politics: the inescapable stalker of our society Politics is a process by which a group of people, whose opinions or interests might be divergent, reach collective decisions that are generally regarded as binding on the group and enforced as common policy. Political theory or political philosophy is as old as the oldest civilisations. The Greek philosophers, such as Aristotle and Plato, developed important political theories and methods of government alongside their more abstract philosophies. One may contest that every society and every belief we hold is a reflection of the political system we live under. Politics, in it absolute form, is a concept of society that definitely intrudes

The surveys I have taken have shown me that I am more conservative on my views of politics, yet all my life, I have been influenced by my parents as a strong Liberal. My curiosity about how things work led me to political science. My ideological development has been tortuous rather than linear. I began in an early stage as a liberal, then discovered and knew I had a strong liking for libertarianism.It seems clear that intelligence is unrelated to political ideology. For every brilliant liberal mind, there is a brilliant conservative mind. For every liberal dunce, there is a conservative dunce. Throughout my childhood, it has been a clear implication that conservatives are the ones to oppose

were appearances of new parties beyond the horizon and even now there still are, but due to the their running history and concentration the Democratic and Republican parties hold the true grip on anything that stands in their way of victory. Throughout our history there have been a lot of close runner ups, one of my favorites being the Populist party, a southern oriented party with an opposition to the higher class. However much like all third party politics this one was short lived. Still much like today there have been times when the candidates of other opposing parties have stuck with the public and allowing a break within our usual pattern.

place of equality by leaving a part of its population outside the definition of a state. Even contemporary states would be seen much more equal if we left women or homosexuals, for example, outside the definition. But that is only a way to modify truth. Furthermore, Aristotle makes an assumption that women are 'incapable of participating in the association which we call the state', which is clearly a fallacy as we can demonstrate by looking at all the succesfull women participating in politics in modern times. Therefore he creates a state that is unnaturally hierarchical and unequal. For if it was that women in fact are by nature inferior to men, it would be justified to call a state that

Politics Among many political issues the topic of revolution as a way of social change has been highly contradictory. On the one hand, most scholars target the creation of a system that would be stabile and preserve its political and social order, replicating it over centuries. On the other hand, many of them believed that change is necessary if the society's political system lands in a deadlock. A change is also welcome is the government is corrupt. The website of the MultiEducation Inc. gives the following definition of the phenomenon: "complete and usually violent process by which the government and its manner of rule are taken out of power
Defining Politics Essay
1943 words - 8 pages
The word politics comes from the Greek, meaning the affairs of the city-state (polis). Even though we have changed our predominant form of governing and our way of life from the times of Socrates and Plato, politics remains a vital part of how we interact with the world around us. Keeping that in mind, defining politics has always been a hard task and with the evolution of political forms, ideologies and an ever-expanding definition of the word global most would argue that a universal definition of politics is impossible. Looking at what the term encompasses today, I would seem to agree with them. In their efforts to answer the question of 'what is Politics?' Political Science, Philosophy
Organizational Politics Essay
1192 words - 5 pages
The past decade has witnessed a resurgence of interest in two important constructs in the organizational sciences: fairness and politics. Theory and research on fairness and politics have progressed in parallel fashion, and largely independent of one another, perhaps due to the general perception that they represent antithetical constructs. That is, most would likely argue that politics inherently reflects unfairness and, thus, if we examined the relationship between these two constructs, results would inevitably demonstrate a strong negative association.We take a different position and suggest, in this chapter, that the assumption of an inverse relationship between fairness and politics is
Power & Politics

Power is the capacity of a person, team, or organization to influence others. Some examples are: the power to influence others, people have power they do not use and may not know they possess, and power requires one person's perception of dependence on another person.Workplace politics is not new and tragedy is that most of the time "HR Department" is a center of such activities. Anyone who has ever had any job, anywhere, knows that the dynamics among those who are part of the work environment play an important part in how a business is run.Besides causing problems for the individuals who work together, the end result can be far more devastating.

I believe that Globalism explains the contemporary nature of world politics best. I think this because globalism is built around the global economy and all of the modernization.

The two most commonly groups that debated over the United States Constitution were the Federalists, and the Anti-Federalists. Many of the rights and rules of our national and state governments were established by these two parties who had very opposite attitudes on how our nation's government should be administrated.

The Rise an Fall of the Machine Chicago politics had become synonymous with organized crime. Following the years of prohibition, this reputation had become well earned in that control of many municipal functions was influenced in some way by the underground operations. In a city that initially developed by entrepreneurial ambition, it was no surprise that now money was the core influence in policy decisions. By itself, the criminal element had enough of a deterring effect on the city and its image. But when combined with the structure of the city's administration and the distribution of power, a tool which had originally been created for the good of society just did not work the way it

We see politics everywhere, we are bombarded in our everyday lives with politics. Politics start at home with hierarchies of the house, then follow us to the office or place of employment, our communities, governments, and even world politics. Truly there is no getting away from it, even our entertainment is filled with politics. We see it all the time in movies like Forrest Gump, or series like Bomb Girls, sitcoms such as All in the Family, Roseanne and countless others; even the music to our ears is fueled with political messages. This poses the question why would we navigate freely to politics in entertainment? Simply put it is funny, entertaining, and it can even prove

Americans tend to hold their great historical documents as sacred, giving those documents an incredible influence on American politics even today. Hundreds of years after the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights were written, these documents still continue to shape American political culture. The Constitution seems to be the most powerful of American historical documents, giving rise to a constitutional politics in which every aspect of the document plays a vital role.

supply side economics have also been traced back to various early economic thinkers, such as Ibn Khaldun, Jonathan Swift, David Hume, Adam Smith, and Alexander Hamilton. Republicans took control of the Senate for the first time since 1954, and conservative principles dominated Reagan's economic and foreign policies, with supply side economics and strict opposition to Soviet Communism defining the Administration's philosophy. By all the traditional measurements of American politics, the election of 1964 was a disaster for American conservatism. If 1964 was a decisive political defeat for Barry Goldwater, it was only a temporary setback in the steady growth of a conservative movement which would

Agents of change are often taking a big risk to fix or re-energize their firm. They are shaking up the status quo as they were charged with doing. However change will often bring about political enemies no matter how successful the changes end up being. Pioneers of change will receive plenty of arrows in their back while bringing about change. While some arrows, or negative political games will be inevitable in some fashion, it does not mean the change will not be for the best. The agent of change will not be able to depoliticize all medical matters, they can reduce the gains made by political games. Medical Politics Change is inevitable in any profession.

the media in debate become more defined because a harmony between the two will foster an involved and competent public.Politicians need to have an obligation to objectively present issues and take clear stances on these issues in order to gain popularity. Currently, a thick haze consisting of political correctness and ulterior motives prevents the average person from understanding politics. Negative campaigning, for example, is a serious problem in current politics. In many cases, political rivalries become a matter of appearances and impressions. There is too much emphasis on finding the flaws of an opponent's life history, background, or character. This distracts citizens from the issues
Aristotle's Politics

In the Aristotle's Politics Book I, Aristotle determines that man is by nature a political animal, and in accordance to that the polis is created naturally. Aristotle's first argument states how a polis comes into being by stating "Now in these matters as elsewhere it is by looking at how things develop naturally from the beginning that one may best study them."(Pg 2, line24) At the beginning of chapter 2, Aristotle claims that a polis comes out of need, but also reproduction. This is idea is different with the views of Socrates and Plato in the republic. Like all animals reproduction is not a choice made, but a natural longing for immortality. By starting with the creation of family

In A Theory of Media Politics John Zaller sets out to explain the roles of three key actors, politicians, journalists, and citizens, in mass political communication.1 And when considering the characteristics of each actor I believe there has been the emergence of a fourth actor in media politics which developed as a natural outgrowth of the demands place on journalists by politicians and citizens as identified by Zaller. Additionally, Gilens, Vavreck, and Cohen's article "The Mass Media and the Public's Assessment of Presidential Candidates, 1952-2000"2 provides a basis for considering the impact political messages delivered through non-news outlets may have on the political communication

Japanese politics

Introduction Japanese politics until 1994 has always been characterised by a single party dominance; this party is the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). The LDP ruled the country for more than three decades, it in fact stayed in power from 1955 to 1994. With the defeat of LDP in 1994 and the creation of a new electoral reform the stale Japanese political situation, characterised by a confused voting system and by a weak central body was reshaped and most of its typical element's functions were changed. This essay aims to analyse the structure of the 1994 electoral reform and the changes that occurred in the LDP structure and policy-making after this reform. The study is organised in two
Greek Politics

Greek Politics At the foundation of the widely differing systems devised by democratic peoples, there is one essential conviction, expressed in the word democracy itself: that power should be in the hands of the people. Although democracy today has been slightly inefficient in this idea, with the wealthy, elite class challenging this right, "it nevertheless claims for itself a fundamental validity that no other kind of society shares…." To completely understand the structure of democracy, one must return to the roots of the practice itself, and examine the origins in ancient Greece, the expansion in the Roman Empire, and how these practices combined make what we recognize as today's

Marion Nestles argument in her book, Food Politics, shows a corruption in the relationship between the government, principally the USDA through its dietary recommendations, the US Farm bill, and the food industry. The problem, says Marion Nestle, is that our diets are a political issue, because dietary advice affects food sales. Accordingly, corporate food companies use their relationships with people in the government, and science to push their product as a healthy choice. In other words, when it comes to consumption of food, strategic decisions are driven by

However I believe that going forward into the future of politics in order to be a successful politician one must always be race conscious and aware of the person and ethnicity that they claim.

by both parents. Men and women can learn the beauty of nurturing a little human being. One of the unique aspects of being human, is the ability to consciously love and nurture a little human being.Further, I think that Okin ahs a point when she demands that business and government provide childcare. Such aid allows many women to work. It allows many women on welfare to go to work. I think that these two institutions shouldn't force people to choose between their family and their career.At the other end of the spectrum, Shaeffer argues that since men have more strength and stamina than women do, then this fact accounts for most of the gender stratification in our society. But how does strength and stamina relate to politics, medicine, or law. Women should be able to choose their careers. Women like Hilary Clinton and Sandra Day O' Connor show that women can succeed in the workplace.

Morality and politics have always been closely linked; even in present day politics, morality often has a part to play. Morality within politics has always been a controversial and highly debated topic by many leading political thinkers. There have been many key thinkers on the subject; however, Plato and Augustine have both an interesting and highly debated view on the argument of whether politics should be focused on morality. Both Plato and Augustine had differing views on the ideas of politics and the role that morality plays within this. These two political thinkers were around in very different times and this is reflected in their views of morality and politics. Plato was born in

On hearing the word politics, what usually springs to mind are images of government, politicians and their policies or more negatively the idea of corruption and dirty tricks. The actual definition seems to have been obscured and almost lost by such representations and clichés that tend not to pinpoint the true essence, which defines this thing, called politics. In order to make an attempt at a definition of politics a systematic approach is required. To begin with, a brief historical overview will be considered, to understand the origins of politics. Following this, different core concepts, which are imperative to a definition of politics, will be discussed, in the hope to discover

Many individuals think that politics and power are tied together because you can not have one without the other. On the other hand politics and power are separate items, and both are needed for an organization to effectively manage its operations.

What Is Politics?When one hears the word ?politics? many thoughts come to mind such as government, policy, and affairs. This means that the field of Politics has more than just one, single meaning. Politics can at the basic level be defined as the process that people use to organize themselves, societies and the world and by which they seek to achieve and maintain a distinctive social order and survival. But at a greater thinking level it is hard to come up with a definition that explains all of the areas that politics may cover.

Politics in America There are many important decisions made every day in this country. Most Americans do not know about half of these decisions. There is no need for the average adult to know all the decisions that happen every day because he can not be trusted to make the majority of the decisions. However, there are certain aspects of life where the average man is worthy of making decisions for himself. Economically, the average man can make educated decisions because it directly involves his immediate environment. In politics, the majority of decisions are made for the average man because he is not educated enough about national issues. The average man is not stupid. However

V.G. Key published Southern Politics in State and Nation; it was the study of the "old" southern politics. He focused on the years between 1920-1949 and analyzed the South's political practices, this included the maintenance and development of the one party system, the dropping rates of white political participation, and of course the excluding of blacks from politics. Key said, those of the South and those who love the South are left with the cold, hard fact that the South as a whole has developed no system or practice of political organization and leadership adequate to cope with its problems" (1). It seems like he's saying that the South has no right to enter politics.In the South

text:
This colloquium in part of a two-semester immersive learning project undertaken in collaboration with the Indianapolis Children's Museum, and it is being funded by internal funds through the Provost's office. Teaching in the Honors College is not a normal part of my load, and a major portion of the grant is "assigned time," allowing me to teach this colloquium. I mention this because the behind-the-scenes machinations are likely opaque to those outside academia: if I didn't have the grant, I would be teaching a Computer Science course instead of the colloquium. I am grateful to the Provost and his committee for approving my proposal, which allows me to teach this course that aligns so well with my research interests.
I taught a similar colloquium last Fall, and it had the same fundamental objectives: engage students in the academic study of games and learning, and, in collaboration with a community partner, have them produce prototypes of original games.There were two significant differences: I was team-teaching with my colleague Ronald Morris, and the community partner was the Indiana State Museum. It was my first attempt at achievement-based (i.e. badge-based) grading, and I wrote a lengthy reflection about the experience. For the redesign, I decided to focus on a few specific pain points from last time:
- The students put off achievements until the end of the semester.
- Some students made zero or nominal changes between game design iterations.
- Not all the students were engaged in reflective practice: they were not adequately learning from the process.
- In-class prototype evaluation time was rarely meaningfully used due to the points already mentioned.
I have met a few new colleagues through the conference circuit in the last year, and I am grateful for their willingness to share tips and tricks. In particular, the following changes reflect some specific ideas I have picked up from Scott Nicholson at Syracuse University and Lucas Blair at Little Bird Games.
Perhaps the most important revision to the course is the introduction of reflective essays. As in my game programming course, I was inspired by the participatory assessment model to grade reflections rather than artifacts. The students will present their weekly artifacts to the class, where artifacts might include summaries of essays and articles, posters, one-page designs, or prototypes. These artifacts will be subject to peer and expert formative evaluation, following the studio "crit" model. However, it will be students' reflections on these artifacts that are actually graded. As in my game programming course, I have decided to frame these reflections around essential questions and grade them based on (a) how they characterize an essential question, (b) the implications to practice, and (c) potential criticisms of the characterization. The research I have read predicts that this combination of achievement criteria and reflections should encourage students to produce high-quality artifacts without sacrificing intrinsic motivation.
Last time, the students had to choose a topic and iterate on it fairly early. The students with the best designs at the end of the semester were, for the most part, those who had to throw away major elements of their design or change themes entirely. This leads toward the desire to do more rapid iteration on ideas, not just prototypes; however, I still want each student to create a significant prototype by the end of the semester. To address this, I have divided the semester into three parts. In the first part, we will survey major themes of the course, such as games, fun, learning, museums, and children. The second part of the semester will be rapid creation of design sketches based on specific themes at the Children's Museum, about one sketch each week. The students will then choose one of these to prototype for their end-of-semester deliverable. I hope that this approach improves all the students' prototypes: even though they have less time to work on their prototypes, that time will be more focused and based on having had more reflective practice earlier.
Going along with the three-part division of the semester, I have organized the achievements into groups, some of which are tied to one of these parts. There is also an "unrestricted" category that can be earned at any time. I have introduced a throttle of one achievement submission per week plus one revision per two weeks. The students' grade is tied to the number of achievements they earn, and so this should help the students pace themselves while keeping me from having to evaluate an inordinate number of submissions at the end of the semester.
Following the most popular design principle for assessing learning with digital badges, I have introduced a "leveled" system of achievements. Certain achievements have gold stars attached to them, designating them as requiring special effort. These stars are tied in with number of achievements and reflection points in order to determine a student's grade. Note that two out of the three of these are directly in the student's control, and the one that isn't—reflection points—permits revision. Hence, students can essentially pick their grade based on their level of legitimate participation in the class.
The full list of achievements is available online, and you can view it on its own page or embedded into the course description. Each badge is defined by a name, a blurb, criteria, and an image. The blurb and image are new this year, and I think they represent a major improvement. I used OpenBadges.me to design the badge images, making significant use of icons from The Noun Project. In case you're curious or want to sketch up your own, the border is the Ball State red taken from our logo (#ed1a4d) and the starred achievements use light yellow background (#ffff66).
Note that the core class activities in the second and third parts of the class are associated with achievements that lead up to stars. For example, a student who shows design revisions every week for the five weeks of prototyping will earn two gold stars, which are half of those required to earn an A. Indeed, I intend for the standard path through the course to consist of some student-directed inquiry in the first part, then two stars from one-page designs, then two stars from prototyping—and I will make this clear to the students at our first meeting! However, the system gives the students agency to choose a different path: if someone wants to focus on games criticism, or reading and reporting on game design texts, these are still rewarded and earn course credit.
One other change this year is based directly on student feedback from Fall. Last time, I had an achievement that was earned by playing several games that exhibited specific mechanics that I had identified. My intention was that I could guide students to experience genres, mechanics, and themes that I found interesting, but it ended up making the achievement hard to earn and delayed rewards for legitimate course activity. Note that there was no formal "leveled" achievements as I have this year with starred achievements, so this one achievement took much more time for the same reward as any others. This year, I have given the students much more freedom to choose a the games they will study and critique. They can choose analog, digital, or hybrid games, including sports and gambling games. I still provide some scaffolding through the games I chose to put on course reserves, but students who want to go in a different direction are free to do so.

I still provide some scaffolding through the games I chose to put on course reserves, but students who want to go in a different direction are free to do so.
The one weak spot in the course design, as of this writing, is the identification of essential questions. I have come up with two so far:
- What is the relationship between games, fun, and learning?
- How do you design an educational game for children?
I thought about introducing a third about design generally, such as "What is design?", but it seems that this is embedded into the second question. I worry that adding such an EQ would diminish the impact of the design-related one I already have. Finally, I will point out that the first essential question has explicitly guided my work over the last several years, and it was the explicit topic of my seminar at the Virginia Ball Center for Creative Inquiry: it is such a big question that others pale in comparison.
After having spent about three weeks this Summer revising my Fall courses, I find myself looking forward to the start the semester. It is good to have the time to rest, reflect, and revise. Of course, all this work has been without compensation, but, as the Spirit of Christmas once said, the rewards of virtue are infinitely more attractive.

BWW Review: Broadway's Resilient Moms Gather At Feinstein's/54 Below To Send Love And Light to Ruthie Ann Miles
Of the many great parts of the Broadway community and the performing arts community at large, perhaps the greatest is its ability to come together and provide support for one another.
BROADWAY BABY MAMAS, held at Feinstein's/54 Below on March 15 little more than a week after the unthinkable tragedy involving Ruthie Ann Miles, was an incredible example of just how deep that support runs.
While the fundraiser was scheduled prior to the March 5 crash which left Miles in critical condition and took the life of her four-year-old daughter, Abigail, it was arranged so a portion of the proceeds would benefit Miles and her family. But far more than just a financial contribution, emcee Celia Keenan-Bolger and the night's performers did a remarkable job of sending love and light their way all evening long.
Jenn Gambatese (SCHOOL OF ROCK) opened the 9:30 PM performance with a Motherhood medley of songs that were important to her when she first became a mom. She combined THE KING & I's "Getting to Know You" (Rodgers and Hammerstein), Phil Collins' "You'll Be in My Heart" from TARZAN, "You've Got to Be Carefully Taught" from SOUTH PACIFIC, and THE LION KING's "Circle of Life" (Elton John). It was a slow-burner of a performance for a very good reason, and with the difficult task of opening such an emotional show, she handled it wonderfully.
Taking the stage, Keenan-Bolger noted that the initial impulse was to "celebrate motherhood and talk about how fucking hard it is," acknowledging the working mothers of decades past who carved out a space for later generations.
But in the wake of what happened, she knew the event had to shift from a concert about support to one centered on the power of collective positive thinking. Aside from a slightly tempered tone, however, that shift wasn't so dramatic, as the groundwork had already been laid for these women to come together for such a purpose.
From there, the working moms who took the stage sang numbers both old and new, from Joanne Javien's (THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE) cheery performance of "And He Smiles" (Aaron Kenny/Rob Berliner)---written especially for her son---to Katie O'Toole's (JERSEY BOYS) cover of ALADDIN classic "A Whole New World" (Alan Menken & Tim Rice)---sung from mother and child---to Nikki Renee Daniels (THE BOOK OF MORMON) and Anika Larsen's (BEAUTIFUL) bittersweet duet of James Taylor's "You Can Close Your Eyes."
Andrea Jones Sojola (PORGY AND BESS) won over the crowd with her riff on "My Favorite Things" from THE SOUND OF MUSIC. Cutting herself off part-way through the song, she joked, "Actually, I could give a rat's behind about girls in white dresses." Getting candid about the more frustrating aspects of motherhood, bombastically presenting her real favorite things---from long walks in Central Park by herself to not being interrupted while on the phone---with an operatic finish.
Equally clever was Lisa O'Hare and Lauren Worsham's "That Horrible Mummy" (Steven Lutvak), a take on "That Horrible Woman" from A GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER, which the pair starred in together. Sung from the perspective of a duo of mother-hating brats, the pair brought new meaning to "the terrible twos" (in the best way possible).
As interesting as many of the performances were the reasons they were chosen. "What a Mother Does" (Benj Pasek/Justin Paul) from A CHRISTMAS STORY was uniquely special for Gina Milo, as it was her first musical after becoming a mom. The varied interpretations of motherhood allowed the evening's tone to change on a dime, sometimes even within one number. MARY POPPINS alum Ashley Brown was all charm when she took the stage, making jokes about motherhood before cracking, "Yes, I always sing to my kid in leather pants." But her early breeziness couldn't have been in starker contrast with her performance of "Baby Mine" (Frank Churchill/Ned Washington) from DUMBO, sung with enough heart and magnetism to give you chills.
Keenan-Bolger noted that the event was organized and produced by women, complete with an all-female band, consisting of musical director Emily Marshall on keys, Julia Adamy on bass, Jessie Linden on drums and Meghan Rose on guitar.
For the final solo number, the crowd was treated to Stephanie J. Block's (FALSETTOS) truly extraordinary performance of "Something Beautiful" (Stephen Flaherty/Lynn Ahrens), joking that she had to sing from the point of view of Mother Earth because giving birth three years ago has left her too emotional to sing from her own perspective. Pulsating with emotion, Block poured meaning into every note and filled the room with an almost shocking intensity.
Former JERSEY BOYS co-stars Cara Cooper and Jessica Rush, who co-produced and directed the show with Worsham, took the stage, explaining how this all began as a Facebook support group for Broadway moms. After explaining their mission, the entire group, including Happy McPartlin (COME FROM AWAY), Jessica McRoberts (SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK), Alison Cimmet (SHE LOVES ME), Nili Bassman (CHICAGO), and Allison Posner (THE LAST SONG OF EDDIE SCOURGE), came together to close out the show with "You'll Never Walk Alone" from CAROUSEL.
As they sang about the power of resilience, the night's themes dovetailed beautifully, tying back to Miles in a way that was affirming and never minimizing. That, above vocal prowess or anything all else, made witnessing these women, standing together and supporting their peer amid an unimaginable experience, nothing short of extraordinary.

Each week I try to blog about our Sunday Service.
I include this post in the blog over at Fred McKinnon's site.
There you can see lots of worship leaders talk about their services.
I encourage you to check it out.
Here's what we did Sunday and some personal thoughts...
The format below is exactly as the tech and musicians get it from me.
Choir Call To Worship: A Mighty Fortress (Octavo)
Choir will enter as Orchestra plays intro
Welcome / Announcements - Shawn
He Knows My Name (Ab/BH#44)
Omit repeat @m12, V1, C, V2, C, C, C, tag
On last chorus change lyrics from "He knows" to "You know".
How Great Is Our God (Bb/BH#5)
As Written (We'll teach Chorus2 to Congregation) V1, C, V2, C, C2 2x,C)
then no pause into next
How Great Thou Art (Bb/BH#6)
Chorus only, broad
Prayer / Fellowship
Everlasting God (Bb/BH#121)
As Written / V, Channel, C, V, Channel, C, Channel, C
In Christ Alone (D-Eb/BH#506)
All 4 verses w/ key change and tag
Offertory Prayer - Deacon
Special Music: Deb Ingram - Pianist
Message: Bro. Steve
Invitation: Wherever He Leads I'll Go (F/BH#437)
Closing Chorus: Everlasting God (Bb/BH#121)
V, Channel, C
I can't speak for everyone, but I had a very worshipful experience Sunday.
Some of the highlights...
1.) How Great Is our God - I finally taught the church the 2nd Chorus "Name Above All Names..." Hearing the ladies sing it while the guys sang the regular chorus really added to the song. Hearing the voices sing God's praises sounded so great I had us sing the chorus of How Great Thou Art a 2nd time acapella.
2.) Everlasting God - First time we've done this one at Westwood. Clearly it was new to most in the church, but by the end they were singing the chorus pretty strong. This is a simple to teach chorus that is very upbeat. I'm sure it will be done again soon. (I only wish the opening verse wasn't so low.)
Some of the "no-so-high"lights...
1.) We sang all the verses of In Christ Alone (My Hope Is Found). By the end, it felt like it was simply dragging on instead of building in worship. I'm going to attribute that to the fact that not as many folks knew it as I had assumed. I think when we do it in the future I might cut a verse and see if that changes anything.
2.) During the intro, I foolishly started talking "off the cuff" about God's love and how amazing it is especially considering the fact of how big He is and how small we are. I even mentioned a video I'd seen online last week comparing the size of Earth to other objects in space. Would have been nice to have shown the video instead of told them about it. That's what I get for working without notes. =)
How was your Sunday?

Great stuff Bro! I loved the acapella "How Great Thou Art " and I have had Everlasting God stuck in my head all week, can't wait till this Sunday!God is good!ReplyDelete

Shawn, I'm with you - that was one of the most worshipful services that I've been in recently. I loved all of the music. Even all the verses to In Christ Alone. Praise God for giving us such great Christian musicians who are out there giving us new ways to worship Him! I truly believe that when you WANT to worship God, you can - no matter what the song. You just have to make the words your own and give them all to God.ReplyDelete

Create a Better DJ Show
March 2017
Don't just DJ- Produce a Great Show
You will find numerous Disc Jockeys out there and they all want exactly the same thing you do. To become working for top money as numerous days of the week as they are able. You can't plan to be better then the last guy the club hired, except if you put some time and energy into your DJ Show. The times of just arriving and playing music are gone. Today's DJ needs lots of tools at his disposal. Just as lights, fog and other effects are crucial, everybody else is employing them too. So how can you stick out during the crowd. Using DJ Drops will help.
Using DJ Drops
After I pay attention to the typical radio station one thing one thinks of. The individuality with the radio personalities. Often you possess a couple of DJ's or guests interacting collectively using wisecracks and fake voices to create a three or four hour reveal that you'll remember and need to hear often. A DJ on stage may be limited by having merely one voice to cooperate with. If this voice is just not strong and commanding then nobody will remember it. Sure your music needs to be on target however your playing the same songs as everybody else. Which means that your choice you may have is always to emphasize your voice and making use of DJ Drops (different voices) can be quite a great help.
DJ Drops by every other name
There are many of numerous terms for
hip hop dj drops
. Voice overs, sound bites, segues, sweepers, bumpers and custom DJ Drops for example. They contain phrases, slang and DJ lingo. Should they have a backing pad with sounds, noises or music they are classified as Sweepers or Jingles. Inserted between songs or employed to make announcements, they can promote, energize and make up a demonstrate that is higher than the norm. Using DJ Voices that jump out on top of the music will make you seem in command of your respective audience. Creating a Custom DJ Drop make along with your DJ name and details is likely to make your show seem more professional towards the crowd on hand.
Were you seeking free DJ Drops?
Do you know why the drops are free of charge-the product quality is pathetic, which no professional DJ will ever use willingly. Google "DJ Drops" and you'll locate a wide array of quality drop producers that will do custom work together with offering generic DJ Drops that could fit the necessity in a variety of categories from making announcements to quick DJ Sayings you can put between songs.
Music, equipment and data are important. The DJ's that will make the grade and out perform the competition are the ones that find other great tools to use. The DJ Drop is certainly one such tool.

Discussion (29) ¬
I agree with Bug in panel 4 – "Mother of GOD" is best reserved for giant objects, preferably organic.
Mother of God! dats sum good comics!
I feel bad for bug in panel 1, he's the only one watching the movie.
Happened to me once. Went in to see the director's cut of Avatar on a Sunday in the unpopular theatre downtown and was the only one there. Was kinda nice actually.
It's awesome. But even more so when you go to a tiny teatre and get the smallest salon with like, 3 rows and you brought 3 freinds. We all sat with our feer leaned on the chair before us and chatted all we wanted
I saw Arrietty alone in the theater. Apparently when I'm the only one in the theater I start making commentary out loud?
Gotta love president spatula-head.
He's secretly the owner of Spatula City!
I think if my head were ever replaced by a kitchen utensil,
I'd *want* it to be a meat clever,
but with my luck it would be a cheese grater.
Sometimes I say "Holy Uncle of God" to throw people.
Yea ok you got me, I don't actually say that.
And the movie must be a Michael Bay/Uwe Bolle/anything with Nicolas Cage.
You could say "DAT ASS"
I think that's generally reserved for nice ones, though.
It's true, it's a rather difficult phrase to pull off.
Just say, "Bless his/her heart." As in, "Holy cow1 That's one huge ass, bless his heart."
when posed with a situation i always start off with a religious figure and go on with some odd thing that takes a while to finish, i think my most recent was "holy jesus and his team of cartwheeling jackrabbits"
Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ, that person has no ass!
Wait… you can show bug raping a mailbox but you can't have him say "fucked?"
…wait,wait,wait….wait. Bug/you used go around saying "dat's fucked up" every time you saw some one with a big butt?!
Sounds classier in Spanish: "iMadre de Dios!"
Although I must point out that God actually has no mother. And us "fat ashe" people take umbrage, I tell you! Umbrage!
1. Offense or annoyance: "she took umbrage at his remarks".
Hooray! Learning! 😀
Pshhhh Mary, mother of Jesus. Trinity, God the father God the son and God the holy spirit.
Mary is the Mother of God 😉
I-madre de dios? Is that the Internet version?
Someone said that about my wife when she went past in her Ren Faire bodice. 🙂
I use "Diosa mio!" (i.e. "My Goddess!!")
Has anyone else noticed that no one under the age of 70 still uses the phrase "Mother of God"?
Is it really just me?
Sorry to rain on the parade, Adam.
Acutually quite a few teenagers say mother of god (and variations) and I do too. Just visit my school.
I love how you draw faces Adam, they're as funny as the joke.
Well at least the president can make pancakes with ease..
This cartoon needs more ponies.
No, you meant more cowbell.
This is HELLA funny.
if you live in Ireland like i do you will hear this every day – a very commonplace phrase.

Posts for tag: Cosmetic Dentistry
Dentures have been around for a long time, but they have been dramatically improved and modernized in recent years thanks to developments in dental technology. Whether you are missing some or all of your natural teeth, there are several options available to help restore the function and cosmetic attractiveness of your smile - at any age. Your dentist at Gwinnett Denture Center in Lawrenceville, GA, offers a range of full and partial dentures to restore your smile and oral health.
Dentures in Lawrenceville, GA
Here are some frequently asked questions about dentures:
Q: What type of dentures are available?
A: There are several options depending on the extent of tooth loss and the person's individual needs. The main types of dentures available are:
- Complete dentures
- Partial dentures
- Immediate dentures
- Implant supported overdentures
- Snap in dentures
Q: Who is a good candidate for dentures?
A: Although they tend to be associated with older adults, anyone suffering from tooth loss can benefit from dentures.
Q: How long does it take to get dentures?
A: Immediate dentures are a temporary pair that you can wear right away while you wait for custom dentures to be completed. They typically do not fit as well as custom dentures, but can help you transition to the permanent pair. The process can take anywhere from three to six weeks with several visits to the dentist depending on the amount of work that is needed, healing time, and the type of dentures you choose.
Q: How are dentures cared for?
A: You will still have to maintain an oral hygiene routine after you get your dentures. The dentist will give you detailed instructions on how to care for your specific type of dentures, but like natural teeth they should be properly cleaned and rinsed every day.
Q: How long do dentures last?
A: The average life span for a pair of dentures ranges from five to eight years, but it varies from person to person. Because the size and shape of your gums tends to change and shrink over time, upgrading your dentures will likely be necessary to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.
