"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner

A Minority Opinion . . . .
. . . is still an important opinion.
I recently received this note from a member of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan, one Thomas J M Davis. His is a clear voice of dissent in the process to elect their next bishop.
While I disagree with many points of his position, I find his perspective reasoned and thoughtful. I asked Mr. Davis if I might post it here and on HOB/D for wider consideration. He has graciously allowed me to do that.
I post this here for your consideration and reasoned, thoughtful comments.
If you will entertain a voice from the other side of the aisle, I am in the diocese of N. Michigan and indeed do object both the process and the outcome of the "episcopal ministry discernment." I would ask the moderator to publish this in its entirety (it will be a bit long) or not at all. So that we are clear, I wrote to the discernment team a year ago, with my concerns- so what I have to say here should not take them by surprise. I have been given to know that my letter was discussed, however, I never received a response from the diocese or the discernment team, although I did receive a response from one of the local clergy. I am telling you this so you will understand I am not "blindsiding" anyone.
It is fairly clear that you and other posters here hold a substantially more progressive theology than I do. It is not my intent to engage in an argument over what I believe, nor to throw a verbal hand grenade. Certainly, I do not intend any remark I make to be interpreted as a personal attack against the Rev. Forrester, the late +Jim Kelsey, or anyone else in the diocese. I do, however, think it necessary to pose questions on whether the current leadership of the diocese is acting in the best interests of the Church, whether its theology is consistent with the requirements of clergy to adhere to the doctrine and worship of the Episcopal Church, and whether the process and its outcome are indeed "episcopal."
I do find it intriguing that you are approaching this from the perspective of diversity. I am not sure of your own background in science or statistics, but I would think that if one were to ask Dr. Jefferts Schori for her opinion as a scientist, she would react much like I would - most closed systems, whether biological, ecological or sociological will tend to have less diversity over time than open systems. Especially in cases where the original population or sample is small. The population is more likely to be diverse if occasional individuals are introduced from the outside. What we currently see in N. Michigan is that anyone with an ecclesiology outside the model that has been adopted has been excluded from consideration.
In the process itself, with a number of the members of the "discernment team" selected due to their non-elective positions, it is arguable that the team was not as representative of the diocese as it should have been. Certainly, one theological and ecclesial philosophy dominated from the beginning. It is also useful to remember that the discernment team was not only a "search committee" but indeed took it upon itself to redefine the meaning and structure of the episcopate, invent a governing committee outside the usual Episcopal Church bishop-standing committee model, which also inherently redefines the role of the standing committee. To date, if any canon has been adopted by the diocese to support these changes, it has not been published on the website or otherwise been made generally available.
Now, from my own position, and I will here confess to some of your readers that I am an old fashioned Anglo Catholic, son of a priest, and you can argue until you are blue in the face and the probability that you will change my mind on issues of sacramental theology is virtually nil. My own basic argument with the diocesan leadership in general and Rev. Forrester in particular, are over the denials of basic Nicene and Trinitarian positions as held by the Church catholic for the last 1700 years, over such sacramental innovations as communion of non-baptized persons, and over the violations of the rubrics of the BCP, both in dropping the Nicene Creed from the liturgy and the practice of non-authorized Eucharist liturgies. If you go to the diocesan website ( www.upepiscopal.org ) you will find examples of what I am talking about in the statements on Dar es Salaam and the St. Andrews draft of the Covenant, as well as in past issues of the diocesan newsletter. You may accuse me of being an old fogey if you want to, but statements that each of us is "an only begotten child of God", "incarnation of God", "incarnation of the Trinity", or "God is our redeemer....Do we believe this literally, of course not." are not acceptable within the doctrine even of most progressives I know. The Rev. Forrester is a signatory to, and a principal author of, each of those statements.
As stated earlier, in addition to nominating a candidate, the episcopal ministry discernment team redefined the office of bishop to that of an "episcopal ministry team". Which is to say that the office of bishop will actually be administered by a group of people. Since there is no real precedent for this in the Episcopal Church (that I am aware of), this is not so much a question of whether this is a good idea if one were building a church from scratch, but whether this is consistent with the polity of TEC. How does this change the role of the Standing Committee (which, canons of TEC aside, has NOT been the functional authority in the diocese since +Jim Kelsey's death, that role having been assumed by Rev. Forrester and the non-canonical "Core Team"), and is the change of the role of the standing committee consistent with the canons of TEC?
Prudence would seem to indicate that the GC might want to weigh in on these matters before the confirmation of a bishop elected under these circumstances, and have the opportunity for deputies and bishops to debate the finer points of this. Much of the reaction I have seen so far has unfortunately been along the lines of "if the candidate is progressive, I will support this" (or not) versus "this method is consistent with Canon X, Y and Z." (or not) The next diocese to adopt such a process might be completely different, and then you are stuck with a precedent allowing perpetuation of a particular theological position to become the "bar" by which all candidates will be judged, and only internal candidates considered. And, indeed, where dioceses will risk becoming "inbred."
I believe I have been sufficiently long winded. I would encourage any bishop or standing committee to thoroughly investigate the methods and circumstances of this election before giving consent to the candidate. And to ask themselves whether the theology and ecclesiology of both the nominee and the "episcopal ministry team" are indeed consistent with the doctrine, discipline and worship of the Church, and whether an "episcopal ministry team" can indeed serve as a "bishop of the whole Church."
May the Lord be with you all,
Thomas J M Davis

I'll confess that i never much cared for the Mutual Minestry model. It's always been to loose for my taste in that there is no one who is accountable, rather there is a set of illdefined "teams" made up of people who's training and/or actual grasp of their roles seems to be open to definition. They also make parishes closed systems. It seems that this system has now grown into a big bear and has short circuted the Diocies. If I were to serve on a Dio Standing committee I would probably vote against consent since it seems to me that the entire process was warped by a system that is covered (as I understand) by a fig leaf of cannonical justification.
I am concerened over the reducution of the Episcopacy to a "minestry coordiator" and the creation of one of these specious teams. The implication that The actual system of governing the diocies has been disrupted by these "teams" is also worrying.
I may be old fasioned, but I do expect the creeds are normative for a candidate for Bishop. I should also say that the undermining of the catholic order of TEC by MM is now fairly obvious by this event.

What makes the acts of this process of electing a bishop much different than the change in canons precipitated by Pitt, FTW or SJ?
To change the method by which a diocese elects a bishop without the consent of the GC is not following the Canons. If I were on the Standing Committee, I could not consent to the election of a bishop elected by such a process.
While I am much more progressive in my theology than this letter writer, the theology is not the issue in question. It is the elective process. He is right about accountabliity. As it stands now, bishops have engineered less accountablity into their positions and more power. This is not a democratic process.

As a member of Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh, I am very puzzled by the comment by "Muthah+" on supposed changes in Pittsburgh's canons. Pittsburgh has not yet elected even a provisional bishop. We have an assisting bishop who was chosen by our standing committee, as provided for by the TEC and diocesan canons. Because some members of every diocesan governing body remained in TEC, we have had unbroken governance since October when many leaders of the diocese left TEC. At our convention in December we DID rule that supposed changes to our accession clause had never been properly passed because it was beyond the authority of the diocesan convention to try to change these. While Bishop Duncan and those who left violated numerous canons before they left, since October 4, the diocese has been trying very hard to live by the constitution and canons.

You know, I read Mr. Davis' note three times before I posted it and I must say, if this is the strongest opposition to the process and/or the candidate, I don't think the opposition, such as it is, has much of a case. I mean, I appreciate the careful, measured tone, and I understand the objections of a 'traditional Anglo-Catholic', but I think the man will be elected and approved by SC and bisops with jurisdiction.
Thanks for dropping by, Dr. Gundersen. I hope Muthah+ explains her comment.

I stand corrected about Pitt. I am more familiar with the dio of FTW where there were changes in the canons passed by the dio convention.

I confess, I simply don't know enough about this process to cogently comment about it.
However, in general, I agree w/ you, Lisbet: if Thomas J M Davis and the (tragically typical reasserter) gaggle of non-contextual quotes by Rev. Forrester is the BEST case against his consecration, then I can't see him having much difficulty in being confirmed.
In the ('79 BCP) service of episcopal ordination, there's a promise the bishop-elect makes (p. 513), and then there's The Examination (pp. 517-520). Reasserters, I beg of you: unless you can tell us that you KNOW a bishop-elect is going to refuse to make this public profession, PLEASE don't waste our time w/ your paranoid allegations of heresy? [We're not Popoids: we don't TEST peoples' writing, to infallibly pronounce "Error!"]

When Muthah+ spoke of changes in the canons in Pitt, FW and SJ, I wonder whether she was referring to canonical (and constiutional) amendments made at the last diocesan conventions presided over by +Duncan, +Iker and +Schofield, respectively.

Dear Elizabeth+ would you please forward this to Thomas...and comment if you wish, I would much enjoy...and Betsy, forward to bishops and deputies....oh, you may comment also! This controversy so depressed me yesterday I had to turn to scripture and work on my homily on healing for Sunday...God put me back on track...I think...e.
Esteemed Thomas,
I write in response to your post on the Rev. Elizabeth Kaeton's blog, which I trust is being read on bishops and deputies...at least I very strongly hope it will be widely read. I had myself posted on that site through my partner Betsy Hess who is an alternate deputy(as well as on the Standing Committee, Diocesan Council, anti-racism, prison concerns and Senior Warden of my old parish!) from our diocese of NH. The only response I received was from Bishop +Pierre Whalon who underscored that this matter raised in the diocese of N. Michigan, must not be discussed simply in terms of 'process', for it involves fundamental questions about our shared Anglican understanding of Holy Orders and in particular the Office of Bishop.
I have nothing to say about the fitness of the particular priest offered as candidate for that office in N. Michigan, for I am not a member of the Standing Committee and therefore have no right to that judgment. However, as I read from my downloads from N. Michigan with respect to standards for the ordination to the Priesthood, and what I have read on the Bishops and Deputies posts forwarded to me, there seems to be a common reduction of Orders to functions, rather than understanding the four-fold Orders of the laos, deacon, priest and bishop in particular, as participants in the death and resurrection of Our Lord, His Royal Priesthood, his self-emptying Servanthood, in oneness with the Apostles as Teacher, Defender of the Faith, Chief Pastor, participant in the councils of the Church and recipient--and our BCP still says this--"of your princely Spirit, bestowed upon Jesus Christ and the apostles, by whom your Church is built up in every place..." BCP, 521. In other words, this Office is quite unlike the functionalist offices of our American economic or bureaucratic institutions, but is rather a mystical participation in the Body of Christ, the Church, "that wonderful and sacred mystery" . Holiness and a total rootedness in prayer are the marks of such participation--being more than doing. Now I know that ontology is very out of favor in secular philosophical circles, when looking upon human offices, but I do believe, that this is our Tradition as Anglicans, reflecting our participation in the "one holy, catholic and apostolic Church we affirm in the historic Creeds, Sunday after Sunday.
Furthermore, my fifteen years as professor of Church History at the Andover-Newton Theological School, a "school of the church" sponsored by the American Baptists and the United Church of Christ, that in those bodies of the Church which have abandoned a sacramental understanding of the ordained ministries, and indeed, perhaps also of baptism...the results are a cooption by American pragmatism and functionalism and ultimately the 'bottom line' of untrammeled market capitalism. Hence the baptized are not taught that their sealing as "Christ's own forever" means that they do not belong to the "American Way" of Main Street or Wall Street, and the ordained, as well, fall easily into the pragmatic habits of the CEO, of "power over", of efficiency, or perfectionism, ...ultimately the sins of the ordained are treated as the illnesses of "burn out".
Therefore, I fear that I see in come understandings of "Mutual Ministry" , or as in this case, the sharing in a committee, of the various ministries of the Bishop as analagous to something like Henry Ford's grand invention of the "assembly line". It saved money, it enabled the 'acknowledgement and exercise of each worker's skills, it produced a serviceable and affordable vehicle...the American "car for the people--a measurable and usable product. Furthermore, each individual 'cog in the wheel' of the assembly line gets to be quite perfect at his/her own widget...hardly an opportunity to discover that we are all sinners, less than whole, and depend ultimately upon God alone to "finish us" and to save us, not our skill or the economy of effort of the 'line'. No, I must not let this analogy run away with me. At ANTS, despite all the 'liberal theology'...the guys who ran their churches were ultimately CEO's...with the surprising exceptions for which only the Holy Spirit is responsible...thanks be to God, (I think of my very holy neighbor, the Rev. Avery Post) and not to 'nonconformist' polity!
OK...so if we want to save money, and be effficient, and fit in to the American Way, and lose any chance for a prophetic voice that leads yes, to martyrdom of various sorts, and that modeling of sacrificial living that does not deal with "time cards"...if we want to abandon the "Treasures new and old" of our Church, we can go with the flow and abandon the sacramental understanding, the symbolic being, the "archaic" mystical participation of our Baptized being, and that of those in Holy Orders, in the Mystery of the Incarnate One.
But that is not the Church in which I was baptized and raised, nor the priesthood which I experienced...when, as my grandmother who with Grandpa had raised me from infancy, lay dying in my 15 year old arms, and I called my parish priest (not the doctor!!), he came in the middle of the night and read the prayers for the Dying over my then dead Grandma, ...and took me home and put me in his bed with his wife...and they added me to their already five kids...a crazed and needy teenager....very inefficient, I ate a lot unrecompensed wonderful food, , I demanded emotional energy big time...Years later I observed to my 'mom', Ann, I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when that decision was discussed. "Discussed, " she said...Russell (Dewart) never discussed anything...your becoming part of the family was a done deal ...there was a need and it was met! So that's how I began to learn about what a priest and a priest's family is not about enabling those with particular charisms, or committees or whatever. Sacrifice. Like as seen on the Cross..
Well, yes, I read myself into Catholic Anglicanism in my Dad's library, and eventually, going to Boston to buy an Easter hat, I discovered the Church of the Advent and St. Anne's Convent...but I was raised in St. Peter's Beverly, very much Massachusetts broad churchmanship...I treasure my Wareham Guild surplice and cassock...the surplice for which my English ancestors fought against the Puritan iconoclasts ...though as soon as I was confirmed, attended the Holy Communion weekly and then sang in the choir at MP.
So thank you Thomas-- you and I may differ over adiophora, such as the fact that I am gay and in a committed life with my Betsy for 18 years...but on the Essentials, let us take to the parapets together! "Though in a scornful wonder, men see her sore distressed, by schisms rent assunder, by heresies distrest...yet Saints their watch are keeping, their cry goes up how long, until the night of weeping, shall be the dawn of song! ..(I didn't check this with the Hymnal...I know a lot of hymns by heart.
Keep on singing, Thomas...

Well, Ellie McLaughlin is a Catholic Radical.
She is Catholic in the very best sense.
She is Radical (not Liberal) in her deep and wise sense of scripture, tradition, and reason.
Please listen to Ellie!
And I admire the gracious words of Thomas.
I think that both he and Ellie are on to something important.
And again I long to see a Church in which Jesus' "I have come that they may have life" is normative.

As it appears that our internet-era attention span has passed this thread by, I will sign off, with thanks for your gracious consideration of a dissident opinion. Thanks also to all those who engaged in a serious, and polite, manner with the issues I raised.
And special thanks also to Dr. McLaughlin, for metaphorically "reaching across the aisle" with the Pax, and for posting her remarks to the listserve. In so many places, it is not the "presenting issue" which is dividing Episcopalians, but more basic things, like whether we hold to the Creeds, believe the Gospel to be the Word of God, or believe that there is one, and only one, Savior, who is Christ our Lord.
And an aside, no, this is not the strongest case to be made, this was just a comment on a blog written in the hope (which I believe has been fulfilled) that it might raise some questions for the people who will be engaged in determining whether this candidate gains consent. If it has inspired people to read Rev. Forrester's treatises and question them, if it brings anyone to question a process that nominated a member of the nominating committee, who indeed was the designer of the process, and the information officer for the diocese, it has fulfilled its intent. Perhaps someone will be inspired to look into the fate of the only woman "missioner" in the diocese, or just to call clergy and friends in the diocese for their opinion (remembering that the candidate writes 75% of the articles for the diocesan newsletter, of which his wife is editor). I could write the equivalent of a thesis or legal brief, and in all likelihood it would be dismissed (perhaps not here, but in many places) because I am seen as a conservative. The election in N. Michigan will have little impact on conservatives. Most conservatives left this diocese 20 years ago, most of those who remained left over the last 2 years. There are not enough conservative bishops left to block a deposition, where would they ever find the votes to block consent? No, it is up to the progressives of TEC to determine whether Rev. Forrester is a "bishop for the whole church." So I leave it to you.
Again, my thanks Elizabeth+. With your kind permission, I may visit again from time to time.

Our paper, Tornadoes in Romania - a contribution to the study of tornadoes in Eastern Europe, a region were there is a lack of tornado reports (as I showed in my previous post) - was accepted for publication in Monthly Weather Review (Mon. Wea. Rev.) [update 14 Oct. 2014: the paper is now available as an early online release]. This blog post is the story of Tornadoes in Romania.
I begin collecting tornado reports, with the aim of developing a tornado database for Romania, in 2004 few months after I started to work as a short range forecaster for Romanian National Meteorological Administration (RNMA). At that time the general opinion was that tornadoes cannot occur in Romania, despite the previous observations of tornadoes in this country. For example, on August 2002 a F3+ long-track tornado that occurred over southeastern Romania was responsible for at least three fatalities (Lemon et al. 2003). So, why tornadoes cannot form in Romania? Lemon et al. (2003) provide this explanations:
This situation resulted in what Doswell III (2003) described as a self-fulfilling prophecy: since the existence of tornadoes in Romania was denied, then no records were keep for such events, and when tornadoes do occurred they were not reported.
This situation began to change after 2004 due: a) the efforts of a newly form severe weather forecasting group (lead by Aurora Bell), b) the implementation of the WSR-98D radar network in 2002 (which allowed the detection of the larger circulation in which the tornado is embedded, i.e., the mesocyclone) and c) increased public awareness (the Facaeni tornado and other tornadoes featured extensively in mass media). This change culiminated with the first verified tornado warning for Romania (and one of the few tornado warnings in Europe). In their paper on severe thunderstorms and tornado warnings in Europe, Rauhala and Schultz (2009) provide a description of this forecast:
Despite the accumulated evidence from mass-media, from the general public, and from the damage surveys conducted by a small team from RNMA (that included Aurora Bell, Sorin Burcea, Daniel Carbunaru, and Carolina Oprea among others) the general view that tornadoes cannot occur in Romania persisted. To provide more convincing arguments (in 2005 the Romanian tornado database comprised only few cases) we needed to show that tornadoes were observed in the past in Romania.
In 2006, the only historical report that we had in the database was of a tornado that occurred in Bucharest on 9 June 1886. This tornado was discovered in Alfred Wegener's book on tornadoes and waterspouts in Europe. The reference provided by Wegener for the Bucharest tornado was a paper by Stefan Hepites (the founder of the Romanian Meteorological Institute) published in Ciel et Terre (a Belgium journal devoted to astronomy and meteorology). Hoping that we will be able to find references to other tornadoes that occurred before 1886, we ask for a copy of this paper from the Société Royale Belge d'Astronomie, de Météorologie et de Physique du Globe. Unfortunately, the paper, an excellent case study of the event, contained a single reference to a paper describing the same event published in the Annals of the Romanian Meteorological Institute. Fortunately, the library of RNMA had copies of the Annals published between 1885 and 1915. Thus, I have spend almost one year going through the entire collection of the Annals, learning about the history of meteorology in Romania, reading the studies of the Romanian meteorologists and discovering new tornado cases. At the end of 2007 we had the first version of the Romanian tornado database and for the next 6 year, together with my colleagues from RNMA we developed the database adding new tornado reports and trying to find historical reports.
In 2013, with more than 100 tornado reports in the database (from 1886–2013, with only six reports between 1945–1989 corresponding to the period during which Romania was socialist country) we decided to write the first climatology of tornadoes in Romania and thus to provide the definite proof that tornadoes do occur in Romania (Fig. 1).
The paper was submitted to Mon. Wea. Rev. and during the review process I have discovered through an excellent on line resource more historical tornado reports. Thus, the version of the study that will be published in Mon. Wea. Rev. is based on a database extending back to 1822. Trough this article we hope that we have provided the evidence that tornadoes do occur in Romania, and we hope that we have made a small contribution toward a pan-European tornado database that will provide the basis for understanding the tornado threat in Europe.
Reaching the end of this post you may ask were are the dragons from the title ? I can tell you, but I think is better to let you discover by reading the paper.

Brockert. Excellent.
Very pleased to meet you, Miss Brockert. Sylvias smile widened, and it actually reached her eyes a little bit. She definitely seemed genuinely excited at meeting her neighbour.
Thats quite alright, Sylvia smiled, when Allegra apologised for the state of her room, Youve hardly had the time. Oh, she exclaimed, as if the thought had just occurred to her and not, as it actually had been, a solid part of her plan when entering the room, I have something that might help. Just give me a moment.
She ducked back into her own room. Upon arriving at school that day, she had retrieved from her trunk a large bouquet of flowers, encased in a bubble charm to protect them along the journey, and set them on her and Caitlins windowsill. Ostensibly, just a nice gift from her parents to brighten the room. Sylvia, however, had herself requested the flowers, with particular composition and purpose in mind. She took a small assortment from the side of the bunch, and one of several empty inkwells from her trunk, and returned to Allegras room.
Caitlin was now inside with the first year, so Sylvia assumed they were officially invited in and followed, handing the small posey to Allegra. It was predominantly white, composed of a variety of flowers, but with a particularly pretty one in the centre.
That should make it feel much more cheerful, she smiled, placing the inkwell on Allegras window and transfiguring it into a small vase. It was a feat she could have accomplished in her own room, but it never hurt to show how one was nicely magically adept.
I was thinking of wearing the gardenia in my hair tomorrow. You could wear yours too, and Caitlin, you can have another from the bunch. It would be nice, dont you think? And if theres any other proper girls in the year, we can give them some too. Did you meet anyone at orientation?

Ethical blindness, pricing and transparency were the hot topics at the Ethical Brands for Fashion Revolution day held in London at the Museum of Brands, Packaging and Advertising on Saturday, 28 April.
Surrounded by the museum's displays of historic brand packaging and iconic logos, around 30 ethical brands joined together in a pop-up market for talks and a fashion show, hoping to give discerning consumers a taste of fashion's future, as well as tips on being better shoppers.
In one of the day's discussion panels, Jo Salter, founder of ethical fashion brand Where Does It Come From? and co-host of the event with Ethical Hour founder Sian Conway, talked about a disconnect in fashion when consumers buy clothes and throw them away without knowing where they came from or where they go to. Her company's fashion products are fully traceable, champion transparent manufacturing techniques and the people who design and make their clothes.
Jo called for more transparency in the industry when it comes to clothes labels and product provenance to truly show there's nothing to hide and to keep consumers happy.
"Prices haven't changed in years and we end up with ethical blindness," she says. "We know deep in our heart something's not quite right if you're buying something for four quid. Transparency is important for our peace of mind, so transparency is important for our mental health, as well as other reasons."
Pricing was a key story of the day. Many of the brands present talked about the challenge of getting the message out about why ethical products tend to be more expensive. In 2005, Alicia Lai founded one of London's first vegan shoe brands, Bourgeois Bohème, where a pair of shoes costs on average £160. When you are purchasing a pair of the brand's designs, you're not just paying for stylish shoes, but also for carefully sourced materials.
"We bring bespoke style and design. Every pair is handmade in Portugal and they just happen to be vegan and sustainable," Alicia says, having invested constantly to source new materials such as eco stone, bio polyoil lining and Pinatex - pineapple leaf fibre.
"Sourcing the right materials while keeping an eye on price is a much greater challenge in the jewellery business", notes Mosami founder Sarah Greenaway who creates beautifully crafted objects in recycled silver.
"Ethical metal is a hard, complex subject," she says. "There are maybe six ethical sources of gold and silver in the world. There's a massive amount of work to do in the jewellery industry, which has a lot to hide. We should know where the metal comes from. Consumers love that story and a good story builds a great brand."
More often than not, you get what you pay for and there may be a higher cost involved with cheap products – an ethical one - somewhere along the line. Consumers have the power to effect change and progress is being made, albeit slowly.
"The industry is built on cheapness and the model doesn't work. I've worked with corporates and change is happening," concludes Greenaway. "But it's not overnight."
Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is: Ethical Shopping Tips
- Challenge your favourite brands – insist on transparency when it comes to the provenance of products. "The answer won't be the one you want but by asking brands, they'll know people care." (Sarah Greenaway)
- Go for detail – when it comes to jewellery, dig deep. "I believe we should know where the metal comes from and the distance it's travelled. So ask: 'Who mined my gold?'" (Sarah Greenaway)
- Shop cooperatives – "Cooperative movements are fascinating to work with and giving jobs locally is satisfying. Customers like to know that too." (Jo Salter)
- Watch out for corner cutting – question who pays the higher ethical cost. "Big brand legacy and culture is about getting the price as cheap as possible so they've lost track of caring where things are being made. So they cut corners." (Jo Salter)
- Exercise your power – "Build a relationship with brands, ask who made your clothes and find out the answer. If they can't tell you the answer then maybe it's time to find someone else." (Jo Salter)

Deerfield Beach Review – Water so clear you can see your toes and take Pictures! What about the Sand?
Written by - Alex Richwagen June 2014
Deerfield Beach is located on the east coast of Florida, about an hour north of Ft Lauderdale and Miami putting right around the middle of the state. Along with the crystal clear water it has, Deerfield Beach has the matching pretty white sand to compliment as well. The sand has a bit of a drop-off from the sand, making the canvas appear a bit slanted, but it shouldn't affect your decision to visit here. I remember visiting there several times and very much enjoying each and every stay.
One of the best parts about Deerfield Beach is the fact everything is very close and walking distance. I stayed at the Wyndham Deerfield Beach Hotel, which has to be the perfect location on the beach due to the fact once leaving the hotel, my feet hit the sand. The hotel has the perfect location when it comes to the beach, vicinity to restaurants and bars, and fact there is anything needed within walking distance. I would highly recommend this hotel above others for those reasons alone. Anyways, let's get back to Deerfield Beach.
For anyone traveling from out of town, figure at least an extra $10-$20 per day per hotel for parking near the beach. Most hotels I have stayed at in my life offer free parking when staying at the hotel, unfortunately these fall on other side. Any hotel that's near or on the beach will add an additional parking fee tacked on, so keep that in mind when booking. Parking in general is harder to find public lots or metered parking. I would recommend looking for a hotel or side lot to leave the car for the day as you go explore the beach.
How about food? Deerfield Beach showcases a few top notch spots that have extremely fresh seafood to serve. Let's review over a few of those spots along with a good sports pub to catch a ballgame at night when the beachcombers need a break from the sand.
- Whale's Rib – If you are looking for some great, fresh seafood without the "fluff" of a fancier spot, then look no further. It doesn't get much fresher than the Whale's Rib. They have everything from fresh oysters, stone crab claws, peel 'n' eat shrimp to a perfect Mahi Mahi sandwich (grilled, fried, or broiled). I've personally eaten all of the above at one time or another and I can tell you it's nothing short of fantastic. Beyond those and some fresh lobster (bisque, salad, or whole lobster), there's one item you absolutely must is the Whale Fries served with Whale Sauce. They are basically very thin shaven potato "chips" that are quickly fried, seasoned, and served with a house made Whale Sauce that is kinda like a tangy honey mustard meets ranch combination. Trust me, order a basket.
- Ocean's 234 – Now, if you still want the fresh seafood, but a more upscale environment, this is your spot. It has some great appetizers to start off your evening like Crispy Calamari, Firecracker Shrimp or the fresh Pretzel Bread Bites with Fondue Cheese. The calamari and shrimp are both lightly fried and seasoned with sea salt and spices. Personally, I would go with a mixture of at least of 1-2 items (don't pass up the Bread Bites with Cheese….my fiancé goes crazy for these) or perhaps grab the Smoked Fish Dip for its simple texture. The dinner menu…literally you could you try everything, but I'll give a few recommendations. I'm a huge fan of pistachio so I naturally gravitate to the Pistachio Mahi Mahi. The nutty pistachio taste combines with the fresh dolphin so well. Other favorites of mine are the Local Caught Snapper and the Lobster Mac & Cheese (1/2 lb of lobster…yum!). Check the menu for yourself, so delicious.
- JB's on the Beach – JB's is probably the ultimate mix between a more upscale restaurant and more relaxed atmosphere. They have a live music schedule to hear who will be performing to compliment your meal. JB's has an evolving menu that changes with the seasons to keep up with their customer's needs. A few of my recommendations would be the Sesame Seared Tuna Salad or Janet's Lobster and Shrimp Salad. Both cold, yet extremely tasty salads pack an ocean influence in every bite. Check out those delicious fish tacos above in the photo.
- Charm City Burgers – Not in the mood for fresh seafood? Want a bit of a change of pace or just a good ol' fashion hamburger, but a lil' dressed up? Look no further. Charm City Burgers is your spot. They have a simple menu to satisfy that burger craving. Charm City features a dozen or so burgers then has the traditional build your own type as well. Everyone seems to like burgers their specific way, but I'll offer up a few suggestions. The Cowboy Style has thick cut bacon, cheddar cheese, and sautéed onions and mushrooms where all the flavors work together. The other is the Volcano Burger for those looking for a little bit of spice with Volcano Sauce, jalapenos, and pepper jack cheese. The spices naturally play off each other to create a few layers of zing and pop in your mouth. See the Cowboy Burger above featuring a fried egg on top. Yummy!
- Bru's Room – Here's the spot to find your favorite team and enjoy the ocean breeze. Bru's Room is a spot for both sports lovers and beer lovers featuring over craft and bottle 75 beers on tap to choose from on their selection. The menu isn't overly sophisticated and has your normal run of the mill bar food like chicken wings, chicken nachos, mozzarella sticks with sandwiches and salads to accompany. It's one of those places that knows exactly what it does well and doesn't over complicate things. It's a great spot for the atmosphere alone. If you are searching for a sports bar while on vacation, this is your spot to go see a game and grab a beer.
Now that we have covered the beach, parking, food, how about what to do and where to stay. Beyond just relaxing the beach and catching some sun, there's a spot on the beach to do the rest of your beach related activities. It's called Island Water Sports and they have a variety of games to rent or buy. They have the following for rentals – and btw this is great for families with kids.
- Surfboards – $40 all day rental
- Stand Up Paddle - $60 all day rental
- Skim Boards - $20 all day rental
- Body Boards - $20 all day rental
If you don't find what you are looking for here, maybe you should try looking at different water games. Lastly, where to stay, let's review the categories
Where to stay –
- Family –
- Wyndham Deerfield Beach - $200
- Embassy Suites - $200
- Ocean Club - $1,000 (per week)
- Singles or without kids –
- Hampton Inn - $130
- DoubleTree by Hilton at Deerfield Beach - $130
- Luxury –
- Wyndham Deerfield Beach - $200
- Embassy Suites - $200
- On a Budget
- Howard Johnson - $69
- Deerfield Buccaneer - $79
Overall, Deerfield Beach is fantastic spot to get away for a few days or even a week to recharge those batteries before heading back to the real world of work. Just remember to relax by the water, dip your feet in, grab some fresh seafood, or whatever you want to be honest. If you would like to add to the article or feel like I missed your favorite spot, please feel free to leave it in the comments section so others can see too. I'm always willing to learn a new spot or ideas when it comes to Deerfield Beach.

How To Maximize Your Free Time: Mommies with Master Plans/
There is misconception that a child can "hold a woman back" or "delay the goals that one is trying to accomplish". Let me be the first to say that is bullshit!
A child is the exact fuel some women need to start up the ambition engine. Once the proper balance is found and your organizational skills get "on fleek", a woman with a child is practically superwoman.
As a single mother balancing a toddler, entrepreneurship, and a traditional 9-5, I can assure you that the task of tackling your goals may not be easy but you're more than capable. Before getting a sense of organization, I had my dreams on the back burner. I felt that dreams were for people without bills and a baby and that there was no way to make time to be an entrepreneur when I had so much to do as a parent. Nonetheless God had a purpose despite my doubts, my ambition and ultimate purpose overshadowed my doubts.
Personally, planners saved my life.
When I first decided to get back into school, with my 6-month old, my organizational skills were all over the place. I had to figure out how to multi task quick. I am a very proactive person, but I realized everything can't be stored in my head. When you bank on your own personal memory the overall picture may be there, but the minor details are often left out this is where the planner kicked in. Koereyelle's "Plot, Plan, and Get Paid" planner is my personal favorite. I made it my goal to Fill in those calendar days with every single task that should be knocked out that month. I was able to have a schedule that prepared me for my week at school. I used the calendar to look at what events with my non-profit I could start working towards. Soon I got so organized I started to even schedule self-care days and days to speak positivity over my day. Life became less stressful. I've realized the more organized the better.
Here are a few simple tips to help a mother maximize their free time:
The main key is to utilize your free time. As a new mother you don't have a lot of free time however as a millennial I'm sure you have your phone nearby 85% of the time. Utilize the time on your phone to do something in regard to your ambition. Whether its social media branding or simply taking advantage of the calendar on your phone.
Whenever you have a thought about how to take your life to the next level put it in the phone on the note pad.
Use key words and positive affirmations to place on the notepad as well. (this will give you motivation on days you want to throw the towel in).
When the baby is napping, revert to those notes and decide which goal you want to tackle first.
Take that first goal and create a new to-do list that caters specifically to that goal and create an ideal pace that works for you.
Remember "It doesn't matter when you finish the race what matters is that you've finished".
If you have a toddler even better! Utilize the time your child is in daycare to get things done throughout the day.
Handle emails via phone, if possible market your business on social media.
On off days schedule at least one meeting with someone that is in the same field as you or can link you with someone who is.
Hell, meet with someone new just because meeting new people is lit!
If you're unable to meet in person because of mommy duties or paw patrol just get some snacks for the kids to keep them occupied for a good 30 min and have an over the phone/virtual meeting.
When you're at work, use your break time to eat and schedule in self care days. These self-care days should be taken just as serious as anything else on the to-do list. Issa Balance.
Overall stay organized, stay productive, and speak positive affirmations over your day. Remember that your child is fuel and their smile is all the motivation you need to tackle your ambitions. MAKE THEM PROUD!

How Coach Mac Kept Me on Track by Bryan Gamboa
Running was the only thing I knew how to do in high school. Cross country and track have taught me so much, and they are the reasons why I'm the person I am today. I was a kid who didn't take school seriously; all that mattered to me was getting medals at the end of the week and getting college letters. I ended up realizing that school was important way too late in my high school career, but I believe that everything happens for a reason.
The past year and a half I have been tested and pushed to my limits. Coach Jim Macnider has given me an opportunity to run at the college level despite not being at my 100%. My senior year of high school, I had suffered a very painful injury. All of the muscle tissues in my heel were ripped on top of having plantar fasciitis which made it impossible to even walk. That didn't stop me from running, and I paid the price for that because I had suffered a stress fracture on top of the previous injuries. The next couple of months I knew I was going to live in the training room doing rehab and stretching.
I knew that running in college was out of the picture, which really got to me. One day in Math, my high school coach told me that a college was interested in me, and I was so shocked and so eager to know who it was. He built suspense when he was telling me who it was. He told me that he has been part of many national titles. It was coach Jim Macnider, and I had known him previously because of other meets in high school. I thought it was so cool that he was still interested in me and was willing to be patient with me. I had a lot of trust in Macnider because of all his accomplishments and past stories I have heard about him. I didn't worry too much because I had a feeling that good things will happen once I started working with coach Mac and had all the support from my amazing teammates.
A great program starts with a great coach. Every athlete knows that; it is proven at the collegiate level and also in the pros. The program at Harper starts with coach Jim Macnider. According to the Harper Hawks web site http://www.harperhawks.net/staff.aspx?staff=43, Macnider is very well known in the whole state of Illinois. His resume is very impressive and should be highly respected due to his experience and the impact he has on all of his athletes. He started as a high school coach and put that school on the map by putting them in the national spotlight year in and year out.
Mac is a Harper alumni and is a very decorated runner due to his accomplishments. Macnider even coached my high school coach. I trusted my high school coach with my whole life; he was like a second father to me. They both had the same philosophy, which is an important factor. Coach Mac has experience of winning and bringing multiple championships to his programs. He has an upward trend at Harper with bringing home trophies the past couple years. I knew some familiar faces on the team from past meets. I was excited to slowly get back into it and grind with these guys.
As a competitor, you are never satisfied until you reach your goal, and even then, there is still room for improvement. At the end of season, it is so satisfying reading an article saying you have won a national championship, according to http://www.harperhawks.net/news/2016/11/16/mens-cross-country-macnider-hawks-make-it-six-straight-national-titles.aspx, Harper College won its sixth straight national title on the men's side in 2016.
At this point, Coach Mac could start to lose track of how many titles he has won. Ryan Ziolkowski was the top runner that day and had earned third place at the national meet. Alan Douglas, who didn't finish too far from Ryan, earned sixth place which put two Harper College runners in the top 10! Our team really got it rolling towards the end of the season where it really matters most. I wasn't able to run a healthy season all year, but it was a fun ride seeing my teammates work day in and day out. It was such an up and down season because of all the injuries the team had to deal with; other guys on the team had to deal with little injuries here and there like tendonitis. Alan had started battling tendonitis towards the end of the year but still pushed through. The rest of the guys started to get banged up due to a long season, but at the end of week, the guys were ready to go out and compete. Running is a yearlong sport, so it gave me some time to keep working on getting better so I could line up next to my teammates.
Harper college is known for having success in both the cross country and track and field teams. We also hold ourselves accountable in the classroom and having a good team GPA. Although it is a little more difficult to win the national championship for track because it involves a lot of events, the team is improving year by year. I know sometimes competing for Harper is not the same for running for a big school, but a student can really grow as a person and as a runner from just learning from coach Macnider. I have learned a lot from him, and he has drilled it in my head to keep my head up and attack a new day to get better. This team has made the whole journey worth it by winning a championship, and the memories that I will never forget have been just as incredible.

Obituary of Major Kyle W. Greever, Sr.
Longtime Nevada City resident Major Kyle W. Greever, Sr. passed away peacefully in his home on January 10, 2018 at the age of 96. Kyle was born on Dec. 28, 1921 in Buffalo, Oklahoma.
Upon graduation from Cheyenne High School, he was accepted into the U.S. Air Force Cadet Program and shortly thereafter proceeded to aviation cadet training where he graduated as a pilot and Second Lieutenant. Kyle was trained for flying P-47 Thunderbolt fighters and became part of the 342nd Fighter Squadron in the S.W. Pacific. During WWII he completed 139 combat missions flying the P-47 Thunderbolt and P51-Mustang. After the war, he was assigned as an ROTC instructor at Florida State University and then became a flight instructor in Greenville, Mississippi. His next assignment in the Air Force was as an F-86D fighter pilot for 1.5 years stationed at Naha AFB, Okinawa. Kyle finished his 20.5 year Air Force career as a command pilot in KC-135 tankers. After retirement from the Air Force, Major Greever worked as a Nevada County Deputy Sheriff for 10 years.
Major Greever who was raised during impoverished times, persevered to become a hard-working, loyal, caring and loving husband to his wife Marion, whom he had married in 1941. His commitment to living his life of service to others showed in the love and support he always provided to his children, his grandchildren, his great-grandchildren and his friends. During his tenure as a Deputy Sheriff, he made many friends in the community that remember Kyle as a well-loved, honest, respected and good-natured man that lived by the golden rule: "Treat others as you would want to be treated."
Major Greever is survived by his two children, Guy Greever, Sr. (Cindy) and Joni Greever, as well as his three grandchildren: Heather Garrity, Guy Greever, Jr. (Vicky) and Lukas Marquard. He also leaves behind 12 great-grandchildren: Zach Garrity, Ethan Garrity, Dom Garrity, Elodie Greever, Sage Greever, James Marquard, Casandra Marquard, Jonathan Marquard, Izabella Marquard, Iradessa Marquard, Anthony Marquard, and Colton Marquard. He was preceded in death by his wife Marion, son Kyle Greever, Jr., grandson Preston Marquard, brother Aldon Greever and sister Billie Singleton.
A memorial service for Major Greever will be held Saturday, February 10th from noon to 3:00 p.m. at Seaman's Lodge in Nevada City. Per Kyle's wishes, his family will take his ashes to be interred next to his wife's ashes at Cheyenne, Oklahoma. In lieu of flowers, please send any donations to Hospice of the Foothills, who provided care to both Kyle and Marion or to Collings Foundation, which is an educational foundation that provides living history events and supporting tributes to our WWII veterans (cfdn.org/phone 978-562-9182). Any condolences may be mailed to The Greever Family, 11055 Daniels Drive, Nevada City, CA 95959.

"What Makes a Good Mentor?" with Dave McClure (500 Startups)
Ravi Gundlapalli: Hi, this is Dave McClure, founder of 500 startups. Hi Dave, thank you for your time.
Dave McClure: Hi.
RG: So Dave, what makes a good mentor?
DMC: Let's see. I guess probably what makes a good mentor is also based on who they are mentoring and what their relationship is. I think the best kinds of mentors are people who know you [..], and understand the strengths and weaknesses of the person they are mentoring. [They] also understand their own strengths and weaknesses, and what areas they are good at mentoring and other areas they're not so good at mentoring. I think being able to quickly identify what's most important, and then within what's most important, where they can add value or where they maybe can't add value but might be able to help connect you with other people who could.
I think sharing information about failures as much as successes is probably helpful. Listening to a mentor who has nothing but success is kind of demoralizing sometimes. Hearing someone talk about "here's where I failed and then how I recovered from failure and then how I moved on to success" – that's always kind of a more empowering story [..]. I think someone you can relate to, someone you can trust.
RG: Are there any mentoring stories of your own, Dave?
DMC: [..] I wish I had more mentors. Sometimes I feel like I was too much of a hard-headed or hot-headed person to ask for help. A lot of folks have been very kind: Brad Feld, Josh Kopelman, even Marc Andreessen… Mitch Kapor definitely really helped out a lot when I was first getting started. Fred Wilson, also, [even though he] doesn't have a lot of time all the time. So a lot of people who were in venture capital before me. Some other folks who started around the same time I did – Jeff Clavier, Aydin Senkut – also been very helpful. Even Paul Gray, though I don't get to see him very often, but when I was first getting started was very helpful.
RG: Fantastic. Thank you very much, Dave.
DMC: You bet. Thank you.
How does someone approach a potential mentor and request some "under the wing" realestate??
Hi Klaude,
Great question! We've found that the best approach for finding a mentor is to show some sort of deep interest in your area of interest (ideally building the equivalent of a self-motivated portfolio) and then contacting someone you respect – either through LinkedIn or local networking events – for feedback. This shows your mentor that you are driven, willing to do research into your industry, and independent. The last point is especially important if reaching out to people you don't know already, as they are more likely to guide you than mold you (as every good mentor should!).
We hope that answered your question! Thank you for asking it!

The Simplest Way To Stop Addiction
Did you know that, according to the CDC, the leading cause of accidental death in the United States is now from drug overdose? And because of that fact, treatment and recovery from addiction are that much more important. It is also important to know that just because addiction is an incurable disease, does not make it untreatable. Drug addiction can be placed into life-long remission, no matter what drug is being abused. Here are the simplest ways to stop addiction now.
How To Stop Addiction
First things first, if you have anyone or anything in your life that is stopping you from getting clean, then it is time to separate yourself from that block. In addition, if anyone is telling you that you can't get clean or sober without the substitute of drugs like suboxone or methadone, please stop listening to them right now. After treating over 55,000 patients since 1998, we can tell you with 100% confidence that if you follow simple suggestions, you can and will stay clean and sober life-long without those addictive drugs assisting you. There may be a need for mental health medications like anti-depressants depending on your specific situation, but addictive, mind-altering "maintenance" drugs are not necessary to achieve long-term recovery. This is not a theory – it is a fact that could save your life if you take action now.
It is really simple to recover. Not always easy, but simple. There are three main steps to getting clean and sober, and staying that way.
Discovery Phase
This phase takes place in detox and treatment. This is where you will have the opportunity to let go of your old ideas and beliefs, and learn not only about the disease of addiction, but how to recover from the disease. The first two phases are where the disease will fight you the most, but it is simple enough to fight back. You just have to take suggestions and follow through on your healing. No matter what your disease tells you, if you continue to listen to medical professionals and those in recovery who have done this before you, you will be able to do it.
Recovery Phase
Recovery phase takes places once you leave inpatient treatment and attend a sober living environment, an outpatient program, and/or go back home. While you attended an inpatient program, you learned a lot and now it is time to take that knowledge and put it to use.
Stop addiction in three easy steps:
Maintenance Phase
This is the phase where you have worked your steps and now are helping others and applying your steps to your life on a daily basis. It is promised by the recovery literature of 12-step programs that if you continue to work and apply the steps into your life, you will stay clean and sober life-long. If you are putting your every effort into your recovery, you can and will achieve this, too.
Recovery Is Possible
We think it is important to let you know the truth about how you can stop addiction and get into recovery. We have seen a lot of false information out there on the web and want to make sure that any addict or alcoholic out there who is still sick and suffering knows there is a way out and that recovery is possible.
If you like what we had to share and would like to know how you too can get clean and sober, contact us now at 1-800-439-5959. Your new sober life is waiting for you.

Sitting at the highest end of spotting scopes is Celestron's Regal M2. It's a large scope with a large price tag. Would there be any bang for your buck? Let's see if it's worth saving up for.
Image QualityThe objective lens was created using Extra-low Dispersion glass (ED), so there was little chromatic aberration; the colours are realistic, and everything is detailed and sharp. The lenses are coated in XLT to boost the image's resolution and contrast. Any standard 1.25" eyepieces can be mounted on to the scope. A 20 - 60x zoom eyepiece comes bundled with the scope initially. The stock eyepiece's zoom functionality is perfect for animal enthusiasts, as targets can be spotted at lower magnification and then given a close-up at the higher magnification. The eyepiece doesn't give you much reason to swap it out, other than for astronomy. If you're looking to use the scope for casual astronomy, I'd recommend something with higher magnification. One thing that I would have like to see is the option to change filters. It's not a huge problem, but it would've helped to justify the price.
FeaturesThe spotting scope's dual focus feature is a great addition. The focus can be roughly adjusted, and then quickly fine-tuned using the scope's 'course focus' and 'fine focus' respectively. This saves a great deal of time when focusing, but it took a bit of time to get used to it. The scope has a twist-up eyecup, in order to adjust the eye relief. This is a great benefit to anyone with eyeglasses. A sliding sunshade covers the objective lens from stray light and moisture. A sighting line on the shade helps to line up any targets into view. Annoyingly, the scope itself doesn't come with a tripod. The scope only has a rotating tripod mount with detents. The carry case included with the scope does its job well. A hole at the objective lens can be unzipped so that the scope can be used whilst it's protected in the case.
Build QualityMade from a magnesium alloy, the scope is lighter than you'd expect. The body is said to be 'strong and durable' and it certainly feels that way. Celestron certainly haven't skimped on the materials. Celestron claim that the scope is fog proof and waterproof and I believe them. The scope has been assembled well and the insides have been purged with nitrogen. One thing to note is the lack of warranty. Most other Celestron products that I've reviewed come with a warranty of some kind. It doesn't faze me too much though as Celestron have a knack for making quality products.
VerdictThe scope is built to last a lifetime with its waterproofing and magnesium alloy body, and produces the highest quality images. The Celestron Regal M2 offers almost everything you could want from a spotting scope, however it does not come with a tripod, you will need one, having said that it is a fantastic spotting scope.

Little baby Sadie.
She's got to be the most adorable 2 week old I've ever seen, and she is also the youngest baby I've ever photographed! Her mom and dad welcomed me into their home to capture some images of her a little while back and I had such a great time.
Newborn photography isn't something I do very often, which makes every time I do it very special to me.
Enjoy some of my favourite images of Sadie💕

Hi all,
As the year 2017 comes to the end, I hope you are fine.
We are going into the rainy season. We made a plan to combat poaching during this time of impassibly bad muddy roads. We came up with the idea of "flying" anti- poaching camps, scouts are hiking and camping for twenty (20) days at a time in the bush before we deploy another team.
Recently, our scouts impounded two guns, impala meat, fifteen (15) snares and two pairs of ivory tusks. One person was arrested. The items were recovered in the Game Management Area near the Mwangazi River and in Kazungula. We worked hand in hand with another team of rangers in Kazungula.
l would like to thank you for the support you rendered during 2017.
Happy New Year!
Stay Blessed,
Silomba Charles

As you probably know, football players get hurt…a lot. Neck injuries are fairly common, especially those involving the disc. Probably the most famous player to have recent neck issues is Peyton Manning. He received three, maybe four depending on your source, neck surgeries for his injured disc. In some cases, chiropractic care can prevent the structural and mobility faults that may contribute to injuries like this one.
The neck has a gentle backwards curve, called a lordosis, that aids in shock absorption. The discs are also made to absorb compressive forces. Straightening of the cervical curve leads to increased pressure on the joints and discs of the neck. Over time this leads to decreased strength and height of the discs and degeneration of the joints. As the integrity of the discs decreases the risk of sports related injury increases.
The outer part of the disc acts like a ligament that helps hold the watery inner nucleus of the disc in place. This nucleus is what absorbs compressive forces. When the outer disc gets weak the inner disc is able to exert pressure outwards leading to a disc bulge or even herniation. If bad enough, this can press on the nerve roots exiting the spinal cord and cause all sorts of symptoms including pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness of the arms.
Routine chiropractic check-ups can help screen athletes for spinal abnormalities that could increase the risk and severity of sports related injuries. Proper spinal mechanics can help the body resist injury and function at its maximum level. A body in motion stays in motion. A chiropractor's goal is to keep it that way.

Happy summer and belated July 4th to all!
Well, once again, it is time to select your NAMA Board of Directors. We would not be where we are today without this dedicated volunteer board. Each year four seats on the board open up as we rotate one-third of its membership. This year, we have nine wonderful nominees. All of them have taken the time to serve on various committees and have proven themselves as strong candidates and supporters of NAMA's work. We are so lucky to have them all.
The strength of this year's nominees will make it hard to decide which four are your top choices for a role on our board, so take time to review their statements before you vote. You can view this information by clicking on a link in an email that we will send to everyone who was listed as an active member as of May 31, 2018. We will send along a few reminders about the election throughout the month. A minimum voter turnout of 25 percent, or 375, of our members, is required for a valid election. We will announce the election results in mid-August, and the newly elected board members will assume their posts as of November 1, 2018. PLEASE VOTE TODAY, AND REMIND OTHER MEMBERS TO DO SO AS WELL. VOTING ENDS JULY 31ST!
Thank you,
Hilary Garivaltis, AP
Executive Director
