Keto Trail Mix
Summer Days are fully upon is in the Pacific Northwest. My days are filled with endless trips to swimming lessons, spray parks, karate class, parks with large climbing structures, and picnics outside. The kids are super easy to pack snacks for. They love strong cheese, sliced apples, bananas, nuts, dried fruit, goldfish crackers, bottles and bottles of water, and literally any fruit they can get their sunscreen-covered hands on. It's trickier for me, as I personally don't want to eat three bananas and cheese crackers for lunch.
I started making this easy trail mix to carry along with our summer activities. It's literally cubed up aged white Tillamook Cheddar, sliced Pepperoni and Bacon Sticks from Hemplers, and very crispy, crunchy Fletcher's Bacon. It's hardly a recipe, but it's amazing, and very worth making! It made for great snacking throughout the past week. It's easy to carry in my purse and the kids love eating it too!
- 3 Hempler's Pepperoni or Pork and Bacon Sticks (My kids prefer the pork and bacon)
- 8 oz cubed Tillamook Sharp White Cheddar Cheese
- 8 oz very crispy Fletcher's Bacon, cooled and roughly chopped
Slice the pepperoni / bacon sticks into half inch cubes. Add them to a bowl.
Add the cheese cubes to the bowl and gently mix.
Stir the crispy bacon in and enjoy!

Museveni who was on Monday launching the Kkubiri Furniture Makers Development initiative, workshop, warned that no one has got the right to harass others.
He told the gathering that they have a debt of removing people in leadership who are opposing NRM in its development efforts in Kampala.
Kampala City Authority Minister, Hon. Betty Kamya, revealed that the people of Kampala love and are impressed with the support that President Museveni has given them.
She saluted him for providing equipment to the working community to help them boost their ventures.
While requesting the President to intervene and solve the challenges of insecurity in some parts of Kampala, Minister Kamya challenged the people to work hard as the Government has provided them with the required tools.
The Chairman of Kubbiri Furniture Makers Development Initiative, Mr. Godfrey Kizito, saluted President Museveni for facilitating them with scholarships and working tools.
He said the donation of a truck would promote their trade. He requested the President for more scholarships and showrooms.
Nsambya Furniture Makers' Chairman, Mr. Saddam Muleke Moses revealed that they have made big strides in their business following President Museveni's donation of a workshop to them.
He said that the facility has enabled them train several youths in furniture making skills.

HOPI RESERVATION - The Black Mesa Water Coalition in conjunction with Moenkopi Greenhouse and Hopi Tutskwa Permaculture will host beginning and intermediate Fruit Tree Grafting workshops for Hopi farmers and the greater Hopi community March 8-9 at the Moenkopi Greenhouse, located next to Moenkopi Day School.
Enrollment is free to Hopi tribal members. The workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on both days. Participants will need to bring their own lunch and scion cuttings (if possible) for work at the presentation. Scions are the new growth from the tree, usually found near the base of the tree. They are also referred to as "shoots."
Scion cuttings should be from trees that have high quality fruit. When taking the scions, use good hand pruners that have been sharpened well to ensure a clean cut. Each scion should have at least five or six buds on them, and can be as long as you want them.
The scions must be stored properly as they can dry out and become unusable. To store the scions, place them in Ziploc bags with moist paper towels or moist clean cloths. The scions can be placed in a refrigerator, but not in the freezer, as this will cause the scions to freeze. The cuttings can be brought to the grafting workshop for the presentation portion.
The workshop will include hands-on experience with grafting fruit trees that will be able to be applied to your own fruit trees. There will also be information presented about fruit tree pruning and maintenance.
The grafted trees will be housed at the greenhouse under the watchful eye of greenhouse manager Steve Lomadafkie until the trees can be transplanted. This will also ensure that the trees have higher survival rates.
For information on enrollment, assistance with scion collection, future workshops or for specific event information please call Jacobo at (928) 637-5468. For more information about the Black Mesa Water Coalition, visit www.blackmesawatercoalition.org.

Eye problems in children… They're more common than you think!National Pharmacies
As parents we're constantly concerned about our children's health. Eye health
is very important for your child's development as 1 in 6 Australian children experience eye issues. You may not know but disruptive behaviour in children can be a symptom of eye problems!
Eye health issues frequently experienced by school-aged children include shortsightedness where distance vision is blurred, longsightedness where they experience difficulty in focusing up close, astigmatism, a distortion of vision and colour blindness. Early detection is key and it's best to treat these conditions as soon as possible.
Shortsightedness (Myopia)
If you notice your child having diffculty focusing on objects in the distance, like reading the whiteboard at school, they may have shortsightedness.
Longsightedness (Hyperopia)
If your child's vision is good, but closer objects appear blurred they may have long-sightedness. Other symptoms include aching eyes and headaches, especially after reading or using digital devices.
Irregular shaped eye (Astigmatism)
This is very common and not considered a disease. If the curve in your child's eye is irregular, it may result in blurred vision known as astigmatism.
Colour blindness
If your child is having difficulty distinguishing between colours or making mistakes when identifying them they may be colour blind. Family history can also play a role in this condition. If you suspect your child may be colour blind, take them to see an optometrist for an official diagnosis.
There are a few signs your child may be experiencing eye problems, which require a visit to your optometrist. National Pharmacies Optical has trained optometrists in-store who can perform eye tests and fit prescription lenses and glasses. Please book an appointment today if you are concerned.
Look out for
- Frequent blinking
- Red or watery eyes
- Covering or closing one eye
- Holding a book very close to read
- Squinting or sitting very close to the television
- Complaints of headaches, blurred or double vision
- One eye turning in while the other appears normal
- Poor sports-eye coordination.
To keep your child's eyes healthy…
- Have regular eye tests
- Wear protective eyewear during sports
- Purchase prescription glasses as required
- Protect their eyes from UV damage with a quality pair of sunglasses
- Limit time spent using digital devices
- Eat the rainbow – the more colour on their plate, the better
- Encourage outdoor play.

An order of asteroids (sea stars) composed of the family Echinasteridae, including genera distributed in polar, temperate, and tropical regions and ranging from intertidal to deep-sea habitats. The Spinulosida includes one family, Echinasteridae, with eight nominal genera. Two of those genera, the cold-water Henricia (Fig. 1) and the tropical Echinaster (Fig. 2), include the greatest number of species in the family and are among the most widely distributed taxa in the Asteroidea. Echinaster includes approximately 30 species distributed throughout the shallow tropical Indo-Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Henricia includes 92 species distributed in cold-water habitats throughout the world's oceans, including Arctic, deep-sea, and Antarctic regions. Henricia occurs in every ocean basin, between the intertidal zone and depths of 1000 m (3300 ft). Most echinasterids have five rays, a small disk, and arms that are cylindrical in shape and circular in cross section. Some echinasterids, including Echinaster and Henricia, can reach moderately large sizes, having a diameter of up to 0.3 m (1 ft) across. The skeletal elements that compose the body wall in many echinasterids are similar in appearance, forming a netlike arrangement in many taxa. Most echinasterids have spinelets (small spines) that cover each plate. Spinelet shape varies from taxon to taxon; some spinelets are conical and thorny, whereas others are finer and more cylindrical. See also: Asteroidea; Deep-sea fauna; Echinodermata

Forex Trading Strategies Are a Must
- Free
- Published date: January 21, 2019
- Bronx, us, india, Canada
It is also advisable to get a forex trading platform that has a mobile version. With such a platform, you can trade currencies wherever you are. You don't have to stay stuck to your computer all day. All you have to do is to install the software on your smartphone and you can start buying and selling foreign exchange even while you're in a coffee shop or at the airport.As there is no "central authority" governing the Forex market, manipulating the system is virtually impossible. In direct contrast to the stock market. Which rises and falls on the rumors of it's major investors.Although The system is often described glowingly as "Easy Forex Trading Cash", it's important to keep in mind that Forex, unlike the other online "opportunities" is not promising "push button riches." Like any method which involves profits made from the difference between buying and selling two commodities, there is a certain amount of risk involved. The good news in the "risk sweepstakes" is the you can significantly reduce risk by increasing your knowledge and experience of the Forex market.Most online Forex brokers, to help you "get your feet wet" with the Forex platform, will offer you an account to practice with. With such an account, you can "get up to speed " at your own pace. without having to mortgage the farm. So, you won't need to risk your money until you've had a good chance to "learn the ropes." Then, you'll be certain to start off on the right foot.Obviously, there's no discounting luck in any financial equation. But the cold shower of reality is that it's experience and consistency over the long term that produces the great windfalls.While you're certainly familiar with the term - whether you trade or not, it's likely you don't know that the Forex market is an indirect result of the Vietnam war. Here's what happened: Back in 1971, there was a meeting of World powers in Bretton Woods, Nova Scotia, Canada. At the Bretton WWods conference, The United States proposed to the other Major Nations of the World that they tie the value of their currencies to the (then) mighty U.S. dollar. Owing to the fact it was backed by Gold. In other words, the U.S. treasury did not(then) print more money than it's equivalent in Fort Knox.The other Nations agreed.But soon, as often happens with positive agreements, the Bretton Woods Agreement went South. The reason: the Vietnam war. Paralyzed by the mounting debt for financing the Vietnam war, then President Nixon violated the very agreement he had proposed, by printing more money than there was Gold to guarantee it. As a result, the other World powers, prudently removed themselves from any possible connection to the faltering U.S. economy.

Betting on basketball handicappers are astounded at how far and fast the Lakers have come in the Western Conference race down the stretch as they look to be in top NBA betting form.
The Golden State Warriors will host the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night with a starting time on ESPN set for 10:30 PM ET. Sports Gambling will have side and total odds on this Western Conference matchup so be sure and open your account today for all of the action.
Los Angeles had a record of 55-20 straight up and was 37-37-1 with the NBA lines. The Lakers were at their best value on the road with just 15 losses against the spread in 38 games. The Lakers went under the total in 23 of their 38 games away from home.
The Lakers have played much better since the All Star Break and got the money in 12 of their first 18 games since returning to action after the time off. Los Angeles was ranked 9th in the NBA for both scoring offense and scoring defense. Kobe Bryant led LA with 25.2 points per game while Pau Gasol had 10.2 rebounds per outing.
Golden State was 19-18 with the NBA betting odds as a host and went over the total in 21 of their 37 home games. Golden State was 2-8 against the spread from March 14-30.

The Warriors have covered their last 2 betting on basketball home matchups against the Lakers with 16 of the last 19 meetings between the teams on the Warriors home court going over the total.

How can tech help you recruit the best candidates?
Recruitment is finally coming out of the dark ages thanks to a London start-up.
Companies have refined the art of connecting with customers but do not apply that same logic to recruiting talent – the lifeblood of their future business.
Beamery works with the likes of Facebook to begin the process of connecting with potential hires before they have even applied for a job.
"One of the problems when you go to a careers site is that the call to action is to apply for the job," Beamery's VP of growth Ben Slater tells BusinessCloud.
"Eighty-four per cent of candidates on the site aren't ready to apply yet so our product counters that by giving extra options like directing them to relevant content or suggesting events.
"It's about offering a way to start a relationship with a company without wading through a 45-minute application form."
Beamery founders Abakar Saidov, Michael Paterson and Sultan Saidov
Beamery's CRM and marketing software focuses on hooking good candidates early and keeping them engaged until a job appears instead of just posting a position and hoping for the best.
"Over the last ten years the way organisations have approached customer acquisition has changed the world," says Slater.
"I ordered a flight on Skyscanner recently then went on to Booking.com, which seemed to know exactly where I was going and with how many people, dates and a list of suggestions.
"The concierge experience is one we've all become used to yet when applying for jobs it often feels like throwing your CV into the wind."
Beamery says it helps organisations cut hire time by around 50 per cent as recruitment becomes less reactive and more strategic.
"[The conventional approach] limits them to people actively looking [for a job] at that one time, which is a small percentage of people," he says. "The high-quality candidates already have jobs."
Beamery is only four years old but has three offices between London and the US and closed a $5 million Series A funding round last year.
Its algorithms make sure a company's information on prospective candidates is up to date, another problem in recruitment, by referencing social media and other websites.
"When you focus on say AI, products are geared around automating the things that a recruiter is probably bad at, like following up with candidates or suggesting candidates that are particularly engaged.
"But someone may have attended a careers fair or applied for a job two years before and that information is now out of date."
For any company that wants to take small steps immediately to improve their recruitment process, Slater has some top tips.
"Aside from using Beamery, the lowest hanging fruit is mapping out what you think recruitment should look like," he says.
"Spend half a day with a whiteboard asking 'what are all the different ways candidates can interact with us, what do we want candidates to feel when they interact with us and does that happen when they look at, say, our LinkedIn page?'
"Even if Beamery isn't right for you, there's a lot of stuff you can do. Especially in a small team every person counts so you must ensure you're hiring game-changing talent.
"Look at the first principles and say 'this is what we want it to look like and this is what looks like now so how can we get there?'"

KIRKWOOD, MO (KTVI) – The transfer transition played out again Tuesday, this time in the Kirkwood School District.
Kirkwood schools started classes Tuesday with more than 180 transfer students, many from the failing Riverview Gardens School District.
Some of the new students got a rousing welcome from Kirkwood High School seniors when they arrived at the school.
About 40 transfer students from Riverview Gardens arrived at Kirkwood High School to cheers and loud whistles.
Those students were on the very first transfer student bus to arrive in the Kirkwood district and it pulled up ahead of schedule. In fact, it was the first bus to get to the high school at 7:20am.
Riverview Gardens transfer students we talked with are happy to be in Kirkwood.
"I'm excited to come here because the school district that I came from before wasn't all that good," said sophomore Riverview Gardens transfer student Cameron Dunn.
Gabrielle Matthews, another sophomore transfer student from Riverview Gardens, added, "I'm excited to be here. It's a new experience, new people, new classes, like college prep classes and things."
The welcome was part of a Kirkwood High tradition where seniors gather outside the school on the first day to welcome new students, especially freshman.
This year, it was a boot camp theme complete with camouflage and activities like tire runs for the kids.
"The entire idea behind all of this is to really make people feel welcome. You know we want to have a high energy first day, really get people pumped for the rest of the year," said Kirkwood High senior Kyle Rieger dressed in his camouflage.
The Kirkwood School District received 184 transfer students: 175 from Riverview Gardens and nine from Normandy. That number could still change.
Kirkwood officials say they hired ten new teachers district wide to try and control class sizes.
"To keep our motto of 'every student, every day' it is very key to have low class sizes so our teachers are able to impact each individual student on a daily basis," said Kirkwood High Principal Mike Havener.
Kirkwood Superintendent Tom Williams said his goal is to make the transfer students feel as comfortable as possible, "We really want them to feel welcome. We want them to have a very smooth transition. We want them to know that they're part of the Kirkwood school district family."
As far as transfer student Cameron Dunn is concerned, he wants to learn, "I'm hoping to get the education that I've been looking for and get a little challenge so I hope that Kirkwood can do that for me."
Most of the Kirkwood transfers are from Riverview Gardens because Kirkwood is one of the two districts where Riverview is paying to bus its students. Mehlville is the other district.

Instead of using a film festival as a way to see films a few weeks before their wide releases use the opportunity to check out films that might not get regular showings on a big screen. Here are what we deem to be some of the can't miss movies of the festival.
We recently gave this film Editor's Choice, Steve Oram's depiction of humans who act like apes is a completely unique experience and will make you excited about the potential of film again. If you see one film during the festival, we highly recommend you choose this one.
Friday, November 6, 11:30 pm; Wednesday, November 11, 9:00 pm; Sie FilmCenter.
Theory of Obscurity: A Film About the Residents
For fans, this documentary gives us great access with recent concert footage and Cryptic Corporation members being interviewed. And for newcomers you really need to expose yourself to your friendly neighborhood experimental group.
Thursday, November 12, 4:00 pm; Sie FilmCenter. Saturday, November 14, 9:00 pm; Sunday, November 15, 6:30 pm; UA Pavilions.
The World of Kanako
Granted this is going to be released by Drafthouse Films in the next month, Tetsuya Nakashima's follow up to his previous Oscar shortlisted revenge film Confessions is described by our Jason Suzuki as, "a world that is beautiful in its absence of hope." Doesn't that make you want to see it sooner than later?
Friday, November 6, 6:45 pm; Saturday, November 7, 8:30pm; Tuesday, November 10, 9:00 pm; UA Pavilions.
India's Daughter
Part of BBC's Storyville program this documentary has been censored in India, its television broadcast cancelled and those in India unable to access it on YouTube. The film takes the story of the gang rape/murder of a 23 year old girl and from there examines the society the crime took place in. The interview segments with one of the convicted rapists recall the uncomfortable access seen in some of Herzog's documentaries.
Sunday, November 8, 11:30 am @ Sie FilmCenter; Monday, November 9, 4:30 pm; Tuesday, November 10, 7:00 pm; UA Pavilions.
Cemetery of Splendor
The latest film from Apichatpong Weerasethakul. His films are required viewing for the big screen in order to let the flow of his imagery and pacing wash over you. For the best experience of this Thai's master's latest work, try and get out to see it.
Tuesday, November 10, 6:15 pm; Wednesday, November 11, 3:45 pm; Thursday, November 12, 3:45 pm; UA Pavilions.
In the tradition of films like Nekromantik and Roman this locally filmed story of a reclusive man who finds a the body of a dead girl in his basement and decides to keep it.
Saturday, November 7, 9:15pm; Monday, November 9, 9:00 pm; Sie FilmCenter.
If you enjoyed the strong female performances in genre films seen last year with pictures like The Babadook and Starry Eyes, then Sarah Bolger's turn as a sinister babysitter should be on your radar. Our review describes it as "Funny Games meets Adventures in Babysitting with a dash of Home Alone."
Thursday, November 12, 9:30 pm; Friday, November 13, 11:30 pm; Sie FilmCenter.
Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation + Raiders! The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made
This looks to be a great double feature about the three friends who remade Raiders of the Lost Ark over the course of the time between when they were kids to finally finishing it in their 40s. See the story about the film and then see the film itself.
Friday, November 6, 6:30 pm & 9:00 pm; Sunday, November 8, 11:15 am & 1:45 pm; Sie FilmCenter.
Filmed in what's been called Tondoscope, in which the film plays out in an iris, this allegory follows fallen angel Lucifer and his effect on a small rural village when he comes and goes.
Friday, November 6, 3:45 pm; Sunday, November 8, 1:00 pm; Monday, November 9, 6:15 pm; UV Pavilions.

It was -5° when I got up this morning, which probably helps to explain why I found today's short so funny. Well, that, and my cold, cold, shrunken heart. (Also, the sparse-yet-engaging style, the clever sound work, and the music are all basically perfect. It's like a Gary Larson cartoon, only animated.)
A group of logs is about to freeze to death in a cold, icy desert. When they realize that the only fuel for a warming fire is their own body, things start heating up.

The Community Watch exist to take a look at the Community and summarize interesting stories, posts, link and news around Skyforge that weren't covered the past week or would otherwise go unnoticed.
Skyforge Selfie
Skyforge subreddit user Ingvevyr shared are picture that was made by Devianart(ist) Clavicl6. You find her Devianart Account here: https://clavicl6.deviantart.com/. She is a russian artist and made more Skyforge Art.
Developers Q&A
Our russian friends at Allods Team suprised us last Tuesday with an Q&A. You can find it here.
- Promise to balance the classes
- Grovewalker was a success (no suprise considering he is totally overpowered) there will be a new class in the future.
- PvP-Questions: See the next Headline for it.
- Will the Elder Godform usefull in other parts of the game? Even the Devs don't know now.
- Pricing of Gear upgrades seems too expensive? Devs think it is okay.
- No new Invasion Faction in the near future. But Devs hint on new game mode coming soon™
- Old Weapons and Artifacts are useless because of how the Generation-System works. Devs answer is wonky at best. No fix in sight.
- New cosmetic soon? Devs say it takes too much effort and employees are needed to put out more content.
- Transmog Items? Devs say it takes too much effort to implement such things in the game.
- Currently Legendary Weapons can't be upgraded to the new Generation and there are currently no plans on the Dev-Team to let them upgrade.
- Progression after getting to Junior God is slow and painfull but the Devs are planning some UI changes. How this will help us, is not clear.
- New Skins for the Godform won't coming soon, they don't make enough money from it
Wait there is more!
Aside from the Developer Q&A our russian friends suprised us with a Youtube Video about upcoming PvP changes.
- Tweaking the Scaling in Battle of the Equals and Massive Battle Whatever this means. Also no Combat Mounts, no Bonus from Cathedrale and Tower of Knowledge and no God Form.
- New PvP Stat. Stat increases with PvP Activity. How exactly it will work is not explained.
- Implementing new Ladder System including Seasons lining up with the invasion.
- There will be rewards at the end of the Seasons determined by your Rank within the Ladder. Reward can be also a temporary legendary weapon.
- Each PvP fight will reward items with the new PvP Stat.
- No PvP related Directives anymore.
- PvP-Happy Hours: Better Rewards during the Happy Hour which should mean in Theory more players queuing up and more PvP Fights.
- New PvP Mode announced for summer 2018

CWA of California: Statewide Prayer Conference Call
May 26, 2017 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
As you know, California legislators are in desperate need of prayer! You are invited to join Concerned Women for America (CWA) of California on a conference call to pray that God will humble our state legislators and guide them with HIS wisdom and truth.
Prayer is powerful! Make plans now to participate!
Prayer conference call details:
11:00 a.m. – 12:00 Noon
Number: 712-770-5253
Access code: 680147
Last December, CWA of California members visited each legislator's office at the State Capitol. We dropped off candy and asked for prayer requests from our state representatives and senators, and their staff. We will be praying for those prayer requests and so much more! If you are not available to join us on the prayer conference call, your prayers in proxy are appreciated.
II Chronicles 7:14 says, "If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
Do you have a heart to pray for America, California, and your community? Mark your calendar and join us on Friday, May 26! And, invite a friend!
We hope you can make it!

Do you want a helper who keeps a high level of performance working in your home? Do you want her to be motivated in a way that she begins to take initiative in her work and does it cheerfully, no matter how hard the work may be?
I noticed that high performing helpers are those who are given a good dose of affirmation on their work. I have heard and seen it countless times from stories shared in our faith community of Filipino migrant workers; they are genuinely delighted when they hear a word of affirmation and appreciation from their employers. To them it was enough to make their day and even their week it is more than what money could buy for them.
Affirmation helps a worker see if she is doing things well and to the satisfaction of the employer. It adds confidence to the worker on her work and even do better. It makes her happy in way that helps her cope with homesickness. A word of appreciation will keep her from wearing down emotionally.
How do we affirm our helper?
When ever she finishes a job, mention the things that she did right and well. Say it to her like: "I enjoyed the steamed fish tonight."
Add a word of gratitude like, "thanks for keeping my child safe on your way home."
When you feel relaxed coming home to a tidy place, say a word of thanks for keeping the house in place.
Reciprocate your helper's greeting. When she greets you "good morning," reply back to her with the same words.
Affirmation and appreciation can never be excessive as most people experience affirmation deficit in their lives. It is not true that appreciating your worker will cause them to be mediocre. Mediocrity is often caused by a lack of an affirmative working environment. Many of those who resigned from their jobs earlier than expected, have serious deficit of affirmation. Part of what we do as pastors is to help them regain their sense of dignity and self-respect after being in a diificult work environment.
Do not treat affirmation like a commodity or money. For a word of affirmation to make a good impact, it must be given freely and without noting it down as if a debt is occured. Give it from a sincere heart and you will receive a heartfelt service from the one who works for you.
Learn to live an affirmative lifestyle. See what is good, beautiful, positive and delightful with the people around you. Mention it to them with a sincere heart. I am sure your spouse, your children and your friends will truly find it delightful. An admonition from ancient wisdom goes this way: "encourage one another and build each other up."

Maybe it's partly because it prominently features the crew and I know they'll all be back soon, but I have an instant love of this new opening. :
That is all.

4th March, 2011
Right, so…I'm gonna talk about Young Justice a little. :
This was a show I initially was only peripherally aware of; I heard it was a thing that was going to exist, and while at first I was like "… :D!" when I heard it was A) like an AU re-imagining with B) NO BART ALLEN, my interest waned. Cut to several months later, after it's begun airing, and word of mouth is good! Now I am intrigued again. However, it was finding out Greg Weisman was involved (I only found this out like…a week or two ago, haha) that sold me on definitely watching it. It all goes back to Gargoyles being my first fandom, man. There's a lot of great things I can say about Greg, but we'll just leave it at: I know he has respect for intelligent/sophisticated storytelling, for strong female characters, and for the DC canon in general. So yeah. When I found out he was producing, I knew I was going to start watching.
I've been watching since…Monday, I think? (took me longer than intended, because I kept passing out early the last couple nights, so wouldn't even make it through an entire episode sometimes, oops) Anyway, just last night I finished catching up, watching the last two episodes that've aired. For one, I wanted to be ready for the new one tonight. Now, though, I have some Thoughts that have been rattling around in my brain, and since, you know, I've been wanting to actually USE my LJ again, throwing them all up here seems like a good idea. Plus I'm hoping to get some discussion. I haven't really looked at the general fandom at ALL yet, (besides a quick glance at the anon fic meme), nor have I looked at spoilers for upcoming episodes. Basically, some of this may be old news/rehashed in the general fandom, but it's new to me.
First, some general thoughts, bullet point style!
So one of the things I have been turning around and around in my brain since last night when I watched the episode and would really love to discuss with people… ( and here there be spoilers...Collapse )
But, yes, these are just some possibilities I've been thinking about and I would love to hear other people's thoughts!
(Incidentally, I'm writing this at work, so while I can post it, any replies to comments will probably come later. I'll try to reply as soon as I can, but work stuff has priority, so…)

Remember me?:
Meme the First
from puffs
Reply to this post, and I'll tell you at least one reason why I like you. Then put this in your own journal, and spread the love.
Meme the Second
from flashily
There's this Female Character Flowchart out there that I'm sure most of you have heard of already. If you haven't, let me sum it up for you: basically, all fictional female characters fall into stereotypes and aren't "realistic." Also, this flowchart is done in a way that basically anyone can be crammed into one of their categories, as long as you ignore the more three-dimensional aspects of her characterization and focus on the most two-dimensional details available.
( the ladies~Collapse )
I'm gonna try and use my LJ again for reals, you guys.
29th March, 2010
Yeah, been forever again, I know. Still working on that. For now, another meme, stolen/modified from : puffs:
The first five people to comment in this post may request a character/pairing of their choosing, and I will produce a fanwork (drabble/sketch/icon/etc) featuring the character/pairing.
1. indefiance - Rukia/Byakuya
2. faemous - girl!Luffy/boy!Nami
3. hallowd - Chad
4. danbi - Yoshimori/Hiura
5. the_firefly Gray/Lluvia
So, yeah. This is me, trying to be productive again. I don't think I've written anything at all since January, haven't drawn in...forever. We shall see what this results in.

What's up? :
I never post any more, partly because I feel like when I do it should be ~worthy~ or something, since it's been so long. Which is dumb.
However. This prompted a post out of me, because it filled me with impossible glee. I mean. What could possibly make One Piece even more amazing that it already is?
( How about...Collapse )
People who were on AIM last night before I went to bed already witnessed my spazzing, but THIS IS JUST SO GREAT, YOU GUYS.
I expect lots of art on Pixiv based on this too. DON'T DISAPPOINT ME, JAPAN.

5th November, 2009
Okay, people are leaving me happy birthday comments on the one and a half-month old meme that is the last thing I posted, so it's probably high time to actually update again. I've been distracted, what can I say. I have a new power cord again, yes. So that's good! Also, : autophanous arrived, crashed on my couch for a couple weeks, and now we've rented a bigger apartment together, in the same building (which reminds me...updated address, again--it's just a different apartment number). So as moves go, it was relatively easy, since it was just down the hall. Still, moving apartments twice in the span of like three months isn't exactly awesome, and I'll be glad not to have to do it again for (hopefully) a good long while. We JUST got the internet hooked up again here.
Ugh, and it's been such a while since I've updated, I feel like there is a lot to say, and yet nothing terribly important that warrants livejournaling. Or maybe it just feels like that because I tend to tweet about things while they happen, and then it feels like I've already talked about them, so I don't in LJ. Meh.
Right now I am trying to decide if I want to sign up for Yuletide this year, and kind of cursing that I didn't nominate fandoms, because a few of the ones I searched for aren't in there. Blast. Kekkaishi is, but so far that's the only one I'd really like to request in (though I'm still making my way through the list). And it occurs to me that the fandom I'd most like fic for is still One Piece, which wouldn't qualify for Yuletide in the first place, so...I may just opt out this year.
I am just kind of generally headachy and anxious-feeling and blah right now. My laptop wasn't starting up properly earlier and it took forever to get it to, and I still haven't figured out what's causing it. Today was really underwhelming in general, which is a little depressing. I dunno. I'm in kind of a funk, I guess.WHAT A GREAT TIME TO CHOOSE TO UPDATE.
Hm. Well. autophanous and I totally saw They Might Be Giants on Tuesday, so that was amazing and exciting. There are probably other things I could mention, but they all slip my mind just now, and TMBG is probably the most important thing anyway, so just focus on that.

22nd September, 2009
I have been having just the worst streak of luck lately, seems like. Nothing huge and earth-shattering, no, but just a bunch of lame stuff--some of it very minor--and just when I think my luck is starting to turn around, I find out it was just to lull me into a false sense of security! :
So, right now, I am updating this from my PS3, because...my laptop's charger/AC adapter cord just randomly stopped working. This may sound familiar. This cord is actually a replacement one I got just a few months ago when my last cord randomly died. That one...okay, it wasn't massively old, but I'd had it for a while, so though it annoyed me, I could accept it. This one was like...I believe I got it in June. Anyway, I contacted the place I got it from, and they are replacing it, but in the time it'll take for me to ship the faulty one back and wait for the replacement, I am effectively computerless again. I have the PS3, but it's very limited. In fact, I have to stop here because I'm out of space. sigh.

Once again, a month has slipped by without a post from me. Ugh. I kind of sort of have an excuse, as I was busy with moving and getting that stuff all lined up. Here are some bullet point highlights of the past month or so... :
That's a pretty half-assed update, but at least it's something. I miss using my LJ. Meh.
ANYWAY. Here's a random meme that looked appealing to me:
Give me the title and fandom of a story I've never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it. In return I will tell you any of these from my never-written story: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.

: autophanous, I got your letter yesterday! Expect one back. ♥
I'm bored, so have a meme! In fact, have two!
Meme the First:
Give me a number from 1 to 5026, and I will upload the corresponding picture from my fanart folder.
I am actually pretty new to saving much fanart to my hard drive, so I can say right now that the majority of it is One Piece (though Bleach makes a pretty good showing as well), but there is a good variety of my other fannish loves, albeit in smaller numbers.
and from the_firefly & tsundere,
Meme the Second:
Comment to this entry with any fandom. If I'm knowledgeable enough in the fandom to have ships, I'll tell you one non-canon ship I like, one canon ship I like, and one ship I really don't like (either canon OR fanon).
Feel free to ask for multiples on either one, especially the picture one. Like I said, I am bored.

This seemed like fun. :
1. Choose an episode of anime or television series you have on your computer. Make sure you're certain you want that one, you cannot change or mind once you skip this step. DO NOT TELL YOUR FLIST WHAT YOU CHOSE.
2. Make note of how long the episode is here -> 27:48
3. Ask your f-list to choose a time between 00:00 and whatever the length of your episode is. Be specific, (ie: 19:11, 21:09, 02:42)
4. Make them an icon using THAT FRAME ONLY no matter what it is. And remember, you can only use that ONE episode you chose previous, even if the person posting isn't familiar with it.

So! Here is some stuff I wrote in the past six months or so (it is mostly One Piece): :
I had a question, but now I can't remember what--oh wait, never mind. I just remembered. Does anyone know if there is a One Piece daily digest comm on LJ, similar to bleach_news or atla_press?
...It's painfully obvious that One Piece has taken over my brain, isn't it? It's nice, though. I haven't felt this excited about a fandom since I first started getting really into Bleach.
I kind of feel like writing right now actually, so...I'm gonna go with that urge.

I linked this in Twitter already, so some of you will have already seen it, but basically...I'd love for all and sundry to spam me with prompts over at my writing journal. I know when I take requests I rarely end up finishing them all, even though I try...but this is a little different. I'm hoping to find inspiration, but I'm making no guarantees on writing everything. Because of this, I'd actually prefer you leave a lot of prompts, because it'll give me more to work with. Think of it as doing me a small favor. Anything goes! :

First things first: I have a Dreamwidth account. Predictably enough (since I like having the same username everywhere), I'm : prpl_pen @ DW; add me if you've got one! No, I'm not migrating or leaving LJ, I don't even know if I'll even use it at all, but I was kind of planning to at least archive and crosspost fic there? We shall see, I guess.
Then, speaking of fic, I have a bunch of ones I've been meaning to link. A lot of it is gift!fic (and art) from Secret Santas, so...yes, it's been a long time since I meant to link.
( That actually took up more room than I though it would, so...*cuts*Collapse )
Meh. I should redo & better organize my LJ tags one of these soon days.
I've been watching the One Piece anime pretty hardcore the past few weeks. I think I will actually catch up soon if I keep at it. I just finished some really "ugh" filler after the big Water 7/Enies Lobby arc, and I think it's going into Thriller Bark now? Yay, Brook! I know he has the same seiyuu as did Jaken, and he was constantly hilarious, so I'm interested in seeing what he does with Brook.
That's about it. ...For NOW.

Current Music: The Toy Dolls - The Final Countdown
23rd April, 2009
I am long, long overdue for an actual journal entry. I keep putting it off, though. Partly, I think, I've just been in hiding. Things have not been the greatest lately, and I haven't been in the best mood or frame of mind, and...okay, I know I can write about whatever I darn well please in my own journal, but I like to think of it as my happy place, as my fandom place, and keep the personal whining/ranting/whatever to a minimum. It's not even as much for other people's benefit as for my own right now. So...maybe at some point in the future I'll feel comfortable writing up a long entry about my ~trials and tribulations~, but now is not that time. Right now I mostly just realized that I MISS LJ, and I miss the people here, and I miss commenting and all that. I miss : you all.
For a good long while there I was still faithfully reading my flist, even though I rarely commented, but I admit in the past few weeks I have gotten mostly lax even about reading people's entries half the time. And, yeah, I miss it. I don't want to just hide away and forget people and be forgotten because of it. I miss a lot of people and it is no one's fault but my own that I haven't been reaching out like I used to. And the longer I went without posting, the bigger a deal writing a new entry seemed to me. It's not like I even write much about my personal life in here to begin with, and I don't think I really expected to have to write a really detailed personal entry, but it was more what it represented to me, you know?
...Haha, this entry makes no sense and is probably somewhat melodramatic anyway. Whoops. It's a start, though. I feel like the seal has been broken. It should get easier again from here, I hope. Baby steps.
Aaand I was planning on segueing into some fandom/writing stuff from here so this entry would have a little more measurable content, but you know? I think I'm fine just leaving it as is.

I don't even know. Apparently it's been almost a month since I last wrote in here so...oops? Things have been busy, but in a slippery way where I didn't really feel busy, or rushed, but was just preoccupied enough with various tasks that I'd look back at the end of the day and go, "Whoa, where did the time go?" This has resulted in me being extremely neglectful of my LJ, my flist and commenting (as well as RP), not to mention various other things. :
Holiday cards, for one. They are still going out, but a lot later than planned. In years past, they would have long since arrived for everyone by now, excepting maybe a few overseas people. This year, not so much. They'll probably not be in the mail till Friday, so most domestic people should get them before New Years, at least. I hope. There are a few of you also getting packages (you probably know who you are), and those won't be going out till sometime in January, but I'll send your cards with the rest so you'll at least get those sooner. I'm sure it's not even a big deal to most people, but I wanted to give a status update, because I feel bad for being so very not-on-the-ball.
And while we're on the subject of cards...ariyanaforever, dawnrune, feenekks, fightfair, lintsister, and the_firefly: I got your cards/packages! ♥

I'll be going to my family's for Thanksgiving tomorrow, so I probably won't be around online much for the next couple days. Now I have to try to fall asleep at a semi-decent hour tonight so I can wake up early enough to drive there in time for dinner. Shh. It COULD happen.

combo Q 'n' A
Great turn out for last night's combo workout everyone! With close to 50 riders out everyone did a great job in working in pace groups and listening to group leaders. Big thanks to our pace group leaders, Jody, Craig, Dave P, Alli, Alison, Valencia, Dave T jr. Remember that pace groups are dynamic and riders can move between groups;
- If your group was too fast for you, drop down a speed bracket to a slightly slower group.
- If you were too strong for your group, check with the coaches before promoting yourself ;-)
There is a lot of information to convey with transitions, often more than we can cover in a single session. So, for those wanting to read ahead for what's coming up later in the season or those racing earlier in the year, go check out what we have on our LETC technical page on transitions.
Over the next few weeks we will continue to introduce new cycling and transition skills while building fitness.
Keep an eye open for a review of drafting and paceline skills.

Dear Ceil,
After I went to Mardi Gras last week I couldn't find my clothes. Or my hair. Or my house. How can I avoid a similar fate for St. Patrick's Day?
Lost in LA
Dear Lost,
I'm not sure I can help with the clothes or the hair. You might try gluing both hair and clothing to your body before you leave the house. Elmer's is a good liquid adhesive. (Also, gluing things with Elmer's is a wonderful hobby for people with not a lot of natural talent. And, it makes a nice stew sauce.) You can also try duct tape. As in, perhaps you should wear duct tape as clothing and hair. With all the different patterns and colors available now, your costume options are not limited to "robot" or "sexy robot". Duct tape is form-fitting as a clothing, and therefore allows plenty of freedom of movement, especially if you tape yourself up while slightly flexed. Shave first.
There are a lot of things you can do to prevent yourself from getting separated from your house for inconvenient days and weeks. For instance, you should always tell someone where you are going (like a relative, a close friend, or the NSA–just whisper into your shower head, or top right handle of your dresser).
You should also have your cell phone charged and handy so you if you get lost, you can call someone. If you're worried about misplacing your phone, or having it stolen by aliens, zombies, angry girls scouts, or a pack of rabid marmots, you can also duct tape it to yourself. (Or use Elmer's. Allow for increased drying time.) If you are duct-taping it to your duct-tape clothing, try not to leave an awkward bulge anywhere. Duct taping it to your arm may give you an odd "random-lone-muscle" effect when compared to the other arm. Duct taping it any place in the hip-area could result in the "misplaced-genitalia" effect.
However, the number one thing you can do to keep from suffering the effects of irresponsible alcohol blackout is to get your driver's license tattooed on your thigh.
While getting a driver's license tattooed on your thigh is both recommended by the Federal Highway Safety Commission and also the Tattoo Parlor and Camouflage Association of America, there are some reasons why you might not want to take this very sensible measure.
Please consider the following before getting your driver's license tattooed to your thigh:
Expense. Only 1 out of 10 or 11 people forget who they are during the regular course of "exaggerated revelry". Even the most airheaded and debaucherous inebriates figure out who they are by the next morning. (Or, at least 90% of them do.) And it's not going to be cheap, because you'll want a tattoo artist who can render your image and vital statistics accurately, and not make you look like a horrifying demon version of your shadow self.
Success. By tattooing your driver's license on your thigh, you are all but assured to get your life back; which begs the question: "Are you sure you want your life back?"
If you're actually going out with the specific intent of getting thoroughly, spectacularly, obnoxiously drunk, perhaps you're at the point in your life where you might want to assess some things.
I personally have been guilty of having a third glass of wine when I'd forgotten that I'd only eaten a salad that day, and that's when I start telling people how they're my best, best friends, and even though we only met in the foyer of the restaurant, I feel like we have a connection, you know? YOU KNOW? I love you. Really. I'm not crying, I'm allergic to feelings, is all.
But if you are purposely going out to erase your memory of the events of the day–you may want to do some thinking first. And, if you conclude that your life is too horrible–that being locked in the basement for 23 hours each day, only to briefly be released to the tavern; or the shock treatments at home are really just too much, even if you did sign up for that study—then you know, maybe just skip the tattoo. Chances are, it'll all be fine. Bring enough for the Greyhound. Get at least as far as Nevada. That's all I'm saying. The desert has no memory. Supposedly. I wouldn't know, myself.
Self-Control. Before you get a driver's license tattooed on your thigh, you should think about the frequency with which you get pulled over by law enforcement. If a police officer asks you for a copy of your license, and you recently lost yours, you'll have to decide if you're the type of person who will mindlessly think, "Why yes. I DO happen to have a copy of that. Let me just pull down my pants and show you."
Most people will have no problems overcoming this urge, but there are a few of you that could end up in jail because you just couldn't resist the joke. If this sounds like you, then you might want to take a pass.
If, after consideration, a tattoo is not meant for you, you could also duct tape your ID to your body.
Dear Ceil,
I just heard about monocles, and I feel that they're contributing to the downfall of society.
What can be done?
One-Eye Blind in Oregon
Dear One-Eye,
There's nothing that can be done about the monocles now. They've already started to spread, like kudzu in the strawberry patch. That's because once the public sees something that is not the bland, beaten-to-death old tropes that are repeated endlessly in print and on television ads, they follow it like moths to a flame.
"We must figure this out, this single-eye-glass. How shall we wear it? How shall we act while we wear it? What sort of person shall be like and engender as we wear our single lens?"
The expected answer to all of these questions by most people who see the Coming of the Monocle is "like an asshole."
However, I take a much more moderate view. I think that for at least a good six months, the rest of us will enjoy people who are dropping their monocles in soups, under trains, in garbage bags, in piles of pet poop in the front yard, and down unfortunate street drains. I think it's going to be just wonderful. Eyebrows will rise. Eyebrows will fall. It will seem as though something interesting was going on. But no, they're just putting in a monocle. And then there will be the dramatic taking out and replacing of the monocle.
And the commenting about how much of a pain it is to wear a monocle, spoken by a monocle-wearer, who will then say, "but I just love it anyway. It's so cool."
Feel free to offer these people some Elmer's glue, or duct tape.

ALBANY — A New York ethics board given the task of going after government corruption in the state has picked a former aide to Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo as its new director.
The Joint Commission on Public Ethics on Tuesday, known as Jcope, chose Seth Agata, a former counsel to Mr. Cuomo and the governor's pick last year to serve as chairman of the Public Employment Relations Board. Mr. Agata has also worked for the State Assembly and as an assistant district attorney in Columbia County.
"Seth Agata is a tremendous choice for executive director of the commission," Daniel Horwitz, its chairman, said in a statement announcing the appointment. "He brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and integrity to the position."
Mr. Agata will be the board's third consecutive director with close ties to Mr. Cuomo, a Democrat. The first, Ellen Biben, served as his inspector general and worked for him when he was the attorney general. The second, Letizia Tagliafierro, worked in the governor's office and the attorney general's office before that. She left the commission last year to return to the Cuomo administration.
The commission conducted a nationwide search for Ms. Tagliafierro's replacement and received more than 200 resumes. The commission was created to investigate potential violations by lawmakers and the executive. Critics have questioned its effectiveness and whether Mr. Cuomo has too much influence over its work.
Blair Horner of the New York Public Interest Research Group said that he had known Mr. Agata for years and that he was an "honest, hard-working straight shooter."
"He has a lot of the attributes you'd like to see at Jcope," Mr. Horner said. "Whether he's independent enough or not is the question."

Well, life has been a little - scratch that, a LOT crazy lately. We just moved our house and I'm sitting here typing with boxes and bags and tons of stuff surrounding me. The moving process is hard, y'all! But since most of you had no idea this even happened, let me back up and tell you the whole story.
In August of 2014 Nathan and I put our house on the market. I can't believe it's been that long, but it truly has. We had a number of reasons for wanting to sell, none of which had to do with the house - we truly loved where we lived and enjoyed how nice it was (especially for a first home). But we knew it was time to move on so we crossed our fingers, said some prayers, and put it up on the market.
And then...nothing. We showed the house dozens of times over the next year and didn't get a single offer. While I won't mention them by name, I will say that I believe this has a lot to do with our realtor. We were very unpleased with them after a time but did not want to switch and risk not selling our house by pulling it off the market. Hindsight is 20/20, but at the time we felt like this was the right decision.
Fast forward to August 2015, and our realtor mailed our keys back to us. Yep, you read that right - no mention of the end of our contract, no conversation, just our house keys in the mail. We were not planning on renewing with them anyways, but this felt like a slap in the face. So we pulled our home off the market, refinanced, and settled in with no vision of the future.
I do not remember exactly what made us decide to put our house back on the market, but we chose to re-list in February with a different realtor. Let me just brag on her for a second - Linda Jones with Rose and Womble was absolutely the best person we could have chosen. Within two weeks our house had an offer (we had it listed at a higher price than it was previously) after some back and forth with the buyer.
At the time we did not believe that our house would actually be sold. We figured it was too good to be true, that the buyer would back out or her buyers (our closing was contingent on hers) would not qualify. So for a little while we didn't tell anyone. And then all of a sudden we were just a few weeks out from closing, packing up our whole house and looking desperately for rentals. We still truly weren't convinced our house had actually sold but sure enough, on Monday we closed and moved into a new rental on the Peninsula.
I am feeling so many things right now - exhaustion, happiness, stress, joy, disbelief, and more. We have so much to do and so much to move, but our house is finally sold. We have a little single family home, our first yard (we lived in a condominium before), and we live in a cute little neighborhood. So far it's everything we could have hoped for and we are grateful - for friends and family who have helped out tremendously, for our incredible realtor, and most of all for a fresh start in a new area with a bright future ahead.

Growing in Arizona: Canistel is a large, open, evergreen tree that has dark green leaves up to twelve inches long clustered at the tips of the branches. The fruit has an orange to yellow thin skin. They are commonly eaten fresh, used in cooking, pies and they are excellent in ice cream! When used in milk shakes they taste like eggnog. They are very similar in taste to the Lucuma from Andean countries. Prefers shade when hot. Good for container growing.

My oldest hand-stitched this creation using fabric, filter paper and some cereal box for structure. I love it!
She made this as well. It's mounted on filter paper. I think she wants to frame this one. So cute!
My youngest designed and glued these little lovelies. I showed her some pictures of bodice and skirt styles. She told me which shapes and fabric to cut. I couldn't resist assisting a bit with the glue as we decided it was important to make sure the hangers did not get glued onto the garments.
The Collection
In readying myself for a craft fair this weekend, I've been stitching up most of my signage. I usually send stitched and block-printed thank you cards with online orders. It seems to work nicely for small paper signs as well.
And lastly...
Our project got me side tracked on applique. I had a request for a new art tool roll for one of my horse-crazy girls. Lucky horse shoes made from mustard wool, plus one cut from a leather remnant, on the outside (there's a horse print patch on the inside) fit the bill perfectly.
and another for my show this weekend

God has established in scripture that we as believers should regularly give a proportionate gift of our income to support the work of the ministry, through the local church (Pr. 3:9; Acts 2; 2 Cor.8-9). God entrusts different amounts to each of us. We believe our tithe (or proportionate giving) is based on what God has entrusted to us individually. The tithe was first established as 10% in the Old Testament, but now under grace, we are not limited to any set percentage… we can freely give as God has given to us.
The Apostle Paul commended believers for additionally giving toward his missionary work (2 Cor. 8-9). They did so because of their extreme joy and generosity, even in the midst of their severe poverty. Likewise, we too are called to give proportionately and sacrificially. Sacrificial giving goes even further than our initial proportionate giving required by God, and offers an additional level of grace giving in light of the grace God has extended to us.
Join us in a Season of Refreshment as we move forward to accomplish seven steps shared by Pastor Eric on Sunday evening, July 9th, between now and Easter 2018.

I've been making some slow but steady progress on the mittens I am making for Bilbo for Valentine's Day.
The reason its are moving so slowly is because it's one of those patterns where I really need to pay attention to which pattern row it is and also I can't read my stitches very well in this yarn either. That being said, as much as it's hard to read I do actually really like this yarn. It doesn't look very soft, not even when I'm knitting with it but the knitted up mitt is pleasantly soft and fuzzy when it's on your hand. I'm hoping to have the first mitten done by the end of the week and have the second one the week after. I have told myself that I can't start the sleeves on my sweater until I have finished the mittens to make sure they get done before Valentine's Day so I need to make a point to knit them so I can get the sweater finished before winter is over.
On the spinning front, I have finished spinning the first single of the Blue and Gold BFL.
I'm quite happy with the way it turned out and so far I am really enjoy working with the BFL. I'm sure the next single is going to happen really fast and practically spin itself.
What are you spinning and knitting on this week?

It's interesting how we as the "church" are reacting to the culture surrounding us. I have talked with youth programming that still encourages small group leaders to "hang out" with students beyond programming time while others have considered even transporting students in vehicles not deemed "official" church vehicles is a no-no.
Everyone agrees that social media is here to stay. I read an article recently that claimed todays teens are the first generation to grow up interacting through this method on a regular basis. Easy access to smart phones and touch screen devices have created a society that is always connected. Just today I saw someone proclaim (over social media) how their small children like to face time friends so they can "draw together."
There was a time when we could "ignore" certain guidelines based on where we live and the size of our community. Yet, it seems like every time we turn around something new makes the news on a youth group (or pastor) gone awry.
Why are policies important?
They Make Us Proactive Not Reactive:
My volunteer handbook is full of guidelines based on mistakes and missteps I have made through the years. I wish I had been able to think through scenarios and helped bring peace from the get go. We can no longer have and attitude that people should "know better." Brainstorming policies that are (and could be) needed helps you from a position of constantly putting out fires.
They Bring Consistency:
There is always going to be someone on our team who tries to do things "their way," even when you believe you have made it clear. Writing down policies (and asking your team to sign them in acknowledgement they understand) keeps everyone on the same page. No one has to wonder about expectations and how to carry them out because they have been made crystal clear.
They Bring Accountability and Knock Out Fear:
It's easy to just put policies in place based out of fear from bad things that are all over the new. It's also easy to think "that would never happen to us. We can't assume anything anymore from either direction. We must remember that our first responsibility is to shepherd students and their families. When we have policies everyone is held accountable to a standard for the purpose of a quality ministry that helps students.
The fact is we want more of our time to be spent focusing on ministering with students than struggling with issues. There are so many variables we can't control, let's make sure to put in attention where we can.
(**Note: DYM offers lots of forms and places to begin on ideas of policies, including an example of a Volunteer Handbook.)

Toward an Ecosystem of Unity: Ecumenism and Ecclesiology in the Postmodern Era, A United Methodist Appraisal
This essay explores the current conditions for church unity derived from the political and organizational culture of modernity and questions whether a new definition and form of unity is needed as modernity itself undergoes a major transformation. It asks whether the centralizing legal and bureaucratic structures that now animate conversations around church unity ought to be retought in light of postmodern trends. It proposes a more multi-textured form of unity as koinonia or communion made up of an overlapping network of relationships characterized by the mutual recognition of members, ministries, and sacraments. Drawing upon the metaphor of a web or ecosystem this essay affirms the ecumenical shift to pursuing bilateral full communion agreements over large multilateral attempts at merger, and proposes that intra-Methodist unity be conceptualized as a communion of distinct connectional structures.
