This page includes instructions for authors on how to resubmit their manuscripts to Verbum et Ecclesia, after the formal peer review process. For details of how to prepare and submit a new manuscript via the online manuscript submission system, please see the instructions for authors.
Please select the applicable link below:
- Upload your revised submission
- Preparing your manuscript for resubmission
- Instructions on how the resubmission process work
Preparing your manuscript for resubmission ↑
The Editor-in-Chief will assess your resubmission based on the reviewers' suggested comments and may send the manuscript to another cycle of peer review.
When starting the resubmission process ensure that you have the following documentation prepared for uploading:
- Point-by-point response letter to the Editor-in-Chief.
- This is a document that provides a detailed account of how you have responded to editorial and peer review comments and other guidance you may have received. Where suggestions have not been followed you must explain and justify your decision. This should include specific reference by section, page, and paragraph number to alterations in the text.
- Annotated version of the revisions made on the original manuscript.
- Clean version of the revised manuscript.
All of the above documentation will need to be uploaded to make a successful resubmission to the journal. Image files need only be uploaded if changes have been made in the figures since the previous version.
Time frame: Revisions received more than three months after being requested may be sent for another review cycle, at the editor's discretion. If a revision is not received within six months, your file may be closed and considered withdrawn from consideration.
Instructions on how the resubmission process work ↑
When the editor dealing with your submission chooses to ask for a revision, you will be notified by email. In the journals' personalised section your submission will move in the active table from the status In Review to In Review: Revisions Required.
When you prepare a revised version of your manuscript, it is essential that you carefully follow the instructions given in the editor's letter. Use the standard uploading format (as described for original submissions), but include both a clean copy of your manuscript and an annotated copy describing the changes you have made. Failure to do so will cause a delay in the review of your revision.
If references, tables, or figures are moved, added, or deleted during the revision process, renumber them to reflect such changes so that all tables, references and figures are cited in numeric order. Images need only be uploaded if changes have been made in the figures since the previous version.
The annotated copy should have highlights on the changes (either by using the Track Changes function in Word or by highlighting or underlining text) with notes in the text referring to the editor or reviewer query (e.g. highlighted text [R2.2] would be the second comment from reviewer 2, and highlighted text [E1.4] would be the fourth comment from the editor). Be sure when you upload your annotated version that the changes are clearly visible on the Word (.doc) file prior to resubmission.
You should create a point-by-point response letter specifying how you have addressed each of the editor's and reviewer's comments.
Using the review version of your manuscript, edit and revise your submission according to the reviewers' and editor's comments, and follow the steps:
- When you have addressed the comments and completed your revisions, log into your journals' personalised section and click on In Review: Revisions Required.
- Under the Editor Decision, click the bubble () icon to view the editor's decision letter. If needed, you may view the original editor and reviewer comments by clicking files linked under the Review Round.
- Once your revisions are correctly formatted and prepared, click on Browse to begin uploading your revised manuscript from your desktop. Ensure to upload a a clean -, annotated - and point-by-pointversion as part of your revised manuscript submission.
Once all three documents are uploaded, you will need to inform the editor via email of your resubmission. Click on the email () icon and proceed to type and email the editor.

text: What are your five favorite TV theme songs. Rules: 1. Please try to name the five in order from most favorite to least. 2. Also the theme most have lyrics that are song during the shows run (If a show changes themes say which theme is your favorite.) for example, Dallas and Star Trek would not qualify because they have no lyrics and M*A*S*H would not qualify because, the lyrics to Suicide Is Painless is not sung. 3. No voice over themes like the Incredible Hulk. My Favorites are: This Is It (One Day At A Time) There's A New Girl In Town (Alice) Without Us (Family Ties there's an early version same song just different opening montage Says it's from season 1 but I don't remember it.) Scooby Doo! Where Are You? (Scooby Doo! Where Are You? 1st series) I'll Be There For You (Friends) I'll be there for you just beat out the theme to WKRP In Cincinnati, I couldn't find the one that begins with the story about a Senator who couldn't explain why he had no pants; and the End song was a joke. So what are yours?

Westchester Black Bar Association
The Westchester Black Bar Association originated as the Association of Black Lawyers of Westchester County which was founded in 1973. Our founding members Bruce Bozeman, Esq, Daniel W. Boddie, Esq., Joseph Holligan Callendar, Esq., Hon. H. Hawthorne Harris, and Leroy Wilson, Esq. each sought to elevate the standards of integrity, honor and courtesy in the legal profession and foster the spirit of collegiality among members and throughout the bar.
Incorporated in 2005 as a 501(c)(3) organization, we were renamed the Westchester Black Bar Association (WBBA). Our primary objective remains the furtherance of the public interest by contributing to and advancing the science of jurisprudence.
Historically, the WBBA has encouraged high ethical and professional standards for both, the bench and bar and has a strong record of advocacy for a diverse and independent judiciary. The WBBA has fervently promoted the administration of justice and reforms in the law in the public interest and continues to establish programs that motivate and inspire students to pursue the legal profession.
Presently, we continue the mandate and mission of our founders as we articulate an understanding and awareness of the experience of people of color in the legal profession, thereby advancing the public good by applying our legal knowledge and experience in a manner that ensures access to justice for all.

Discussion in 'Gaming' started by AlphaMan, Jun 5, 2013.
Completed the game,
wow just wow, what a game
About how long would you say it is? I just recently got to Pittsburgh. I feel like there's no way I'm even close to the end.
^ hmmm not sure 12 hours minimum I say but could go to 15 hours+ - lose track of time playing it.
You've still got a ways to go. I was already quite a ways past Pittsburg when I hit 56%. I played about 3 or 4 hours after that, but I didn't get a chance to see my percentage.
It shows you you're percentage when you select your save file.
I finished it late Saturday/ early Sunday. If you go to BONUSES on the pause menu and then STATISTICS, you'll see your total time played stat. My first playthrough was 19 hours. That was so much more than a game. Definitely more than a movie. It was an experience.
The sounds were superb. Things like the sounds of your footsteps when you run from a Clicker... The sound of a dog barking in the background.. The birds chirping... These things are so subtle, but it totally added to the immersion factor.
With the foreknowledge that Grand Theft Auto V will be out later this year, I'm going to stick my neck out and say that this will be 2013's Game if the Year.... Or at least a strong contender.
I'm about 9 hours into a new Game Plus mode. I can't get enough if this!!
I finished it this afternoon. That was a hell of an ending. Great in terms of character and story, but on moral grounds..... I honestly don't know what I would do in that situation.
I think I played too much the first day. I am not a gamer, by any means, so those 8 hours did me in. I'm playing in random 20-30 minute intervals now. Just fell down an elevator shaft. Things are dark and scary and monsters keep killing me.
Still plugging away. I just started "Spring" tonight. Powered through some infected monsters, and now I'm making my way through the hospital. This game really is incredible. I loved the giraffes in Salt Lake City. With humans mostly out of the way, the rest of the animal kingdom is taking back the world, and that's a really neat thing to see.
Anywho, I had to put the game down for the night, and I probably won't be able to play any more of it until Monday. I can tell I'm nearing the end, and it's really bumming me out. This game has been so fun. It's one of the only games I've ever played where I revel in the slow parts because I just enjoy walking around and taking in the scenery. The detail is incredible.
Finished it the other day and clocked in at 21+ hours.
Fantastic game 10/10.
I started a Survivor play through and it is pretty bitchin'!
You get less supplies and your enemies seem to have eyes in the back of their heads. I managed to get as far as the College Campus, but I don't then k I can go any further. I have 2 shots in my Shorty, no health and in a room with 6 Clickers and a Bloater. I need to find more ammo somehow. I must be missing something. I missed about 5 shiv doors because I didn't have a frickin' shiv.
I'll probably start over.
I started playing it yesterday.
Possibly best cinematography out of any game ever made.
I'm still early in the game, but how long before the handholding stops? I want to get to the part of the game where there isn't an NPC leading you around by the nose, when does that happen?
No matter how great all the other aspects of a game are handholding is a dealbreaker for me.
Not sure what you mean. Exactly how far along are you?
I'm still very near the beginning so admittedly not enough of a sample to tell if this handholding continues.
But I got several hours into Uncharted 2 and it was all either a tutorial section or there were NPCs telling you 'Go here! Now go here! Now shoot that guy!' I'm hoping Last Of Us doesn't turn into that, and there are more parts of the game where you're just on your own.
Well, there are definitely parts where you just have to follow other characters around. They lead you through the story. But there's plenty of running around by yourself.
Jeez, the "clickers" are annoying.
Enjoying the game so far, just reached "Winter". Only problem I'm having is my system doesn't want me to update to version 1.01 without resetting or claiming it can't connect to the internet. Not sure what it fixes, but I haven't had any issues so far.
^ There was a bug where the game would stop saving your progress. If you went into the main menu and it said "autosaving, please wait" rather than "less than x minutes ago." for a very long time, you got the glitch. Exiting the game sort of helped, but some people lost quite a bit of progress. It happened to me, but luckily I only lost about 15 minutes.
I've been dying to talk spoilers about this game with someone who played and finished. If you haven't finished this game I strongly urge that you not read any further.
Spoiler: ONLY IF YOU FINISHED THE GAME
About the last scene between Joel and Ellie I was wondering what you think about it. I think Ellie was remembering all the people that sacrificed their lives to get her to the Fireflies. She was ready to give her life for a cure for mankind. And Joel lied to her. Not only did he lie, but he killed the surgeon who may possibly be the only person that can fashion a cure. I have a lot of friends who played this game that doesn't have kids and they all see Joel as evil for what he did. But every parent that I know thats finished the game doesn't see it that way. They look at it as Joel giving Ellie a chance to have a good life. He was actually protecting her. For all intents and purposes, we don't know if that surgeon could've fashioned a cure from Ellie's brain. What if he tried and failed to find a cure and not the only and best hope is now dead? No way would I have consented to such a procedure. I think that if I were Joel, I would've done the same thing. There's no way I would let them kill an innocent life just because everyone else's life is fucked up. If there was a way to keep her safe and have a happy and full life that was the answer. She Should make the choice herself. After she's had kids. The rest of humanity would've had to wait until she was old and ready to go. And Joel did the right thing by lying to her.
There's no way Marlene could've had her best interest at heart. Ellie's bullshit detector is too good. You can tell that she knows Joel lied to her, But she's willing to let sleeping dogs lie. This ending was awesome.
Oh, and
Spoiler: this too
I have mixed feelings about the ending. On the one hand, I get it. On the other hand, what a selfish asshole!
Spoiler: Ending
Actually, it was all the people she knew who got infected and died since she was bitten, hence her strong motivation to help create a vaccine.
You don't actually have to kill him apparently. It's funny how many people just shot him, or even the whole medical staff, and assumed that's just what you were supposed to do.
As for the rest of the ending, I can't help but think its worth saving the life of the one person who's willing to lay down her life for the rest of humanity over the people willing to kill a young girl to save themselves.
I really wish I could play this game myself, rather than having to watch let's plays of it.
Separate names with a comma.

A HEARTFELT THANKS ... A Palo Alto woman's campaign to equip local schools with automated external defibrillators (AEDS) is already paying off. Stephanie Martinson, founder of a nonprofit "Racing Hearts," which raises funds for the machines, thanked the Palo Alto school board on Tuesday for helping to fund 21 of the portable machines to be placed on school campuses to be used in case of sudden cardiac arrest. Six have already been placed at Palo Alto's two high schools. Monthly maintenance will be provided by the Palo Alto Fire Department. "Stephanie has been a trailblazer in our community about the importance of AEDs," Superintendent Kevin Skelly said Tuesday. Schools are just the beginning. In April, the City Council supported a recommendation from Martinson to install 37 defibrillators at public facilities throughout the city.
RONALD'S HOUSE ... For the Ronald McDonald House, which occupies a tree-lined site at the intersection near El Camino Real and Sand Hill Road, change has been a constant ever since it went up in 1979. The facility, which provides temporary shelter to children with life-threatening diseases and to their families, initially had 13 rooms. Since then, it has expanded to 24 (in 1989) and 47 (in 2002) rooms. On Monday night, it's slated to get the City Council's green light for the biggest expansion yet — a three-story addition that would add 69 rooms to the facility next to the Stanford Shopping Center. The reason for the expansion is heavy and increasing demand. According to a new report from the city's planning department, the facility typically turns away 40 families a day.
WAR ON DAWDLING ... Palo Alto voters might have some decisions to make in the coming November. The council is considering changing the City Charter (which requires a vote) so that newly elected council members can assume office almost immediately after the vote is certified. Under the city's long-standing practice, new council members are sworn in during the council's first regular Monday night meeting in January. The idea of swearing in members earlier was first proposed by Councilmen Larry Klein and Greg Schmid, who argued in a February memo that delaying the swearing-in until possibly as late as Jan. 8 puts the city at a "risk of not having sufficient council members on hand if an emergency should arise." At the same time, the change would allow the council to get to business sooner, the memo states. "At the very time when enthusiasm is high — particularly in years when new people are joining the council — we are in effect dawdling." The council will consider the proposed changes, and the potential November election, on Monday night.
