Tour to the White Villages of Andalucia
Guess what? We had another scenic drive along the ocean then we crossed over a bridge and drove inland for about an hour to the city of Medina Sidonia which is one of the famous white villages. All the houses are painted bright white to reflect the sun and keep them cool. It is considered by some to be the oldest city in Europe and was used as a military defense because of its elevated location. It has medieval walks and narrow cobbled streets which, of course, we walked them all. We are becoming quite adapt at walking on cobblestones. We then traveled some back roads for about a half hour drive to the city of Arcos de la Frontera which is another white-washed town near the River Guadalete which has some influence from its Arab past. We had a walking tour to the Plaza del Cabildo where the town hall stands and the Ducal Castle which wad a Muslin fortress re-built in the 15th century. There was a great view of the whole valley. Walking along narrow streets we came across the Iglesia de San Pedro which was impressive and had a bell tower that looks like it is hanging off the clift. We stopped at the Parador de Arcos which is a great little hotel located in the old Casa del Corregidor where we had some drinks, a plate of olives, potato chips and potato cheese appetizers and sat and enjoyed the beautiful view in a very relaxed atmosphere. Afterwards we walked down the hill to our bus to take us back to the Port of Cadiz.

It seems the good Burgher's in White Rock want the AMTRAK Vancouver to Seattle – Portland train to stop at their city, to give a direct rail service to Seattle. It's not going to happen. The Soviet style American security types will demand so much expensive infrastructure for boarder security as to make the service unfeasible, so enough of committee meetings etc. and time to plan for a real solution: A White Rock to Vancouver TramTrain service, using the existing BN & SF tracks.
Fairly easy to implement, a TramTrain service would provide a quick and reliable and affordable service, throughout the day. What is needed is a few km. of extra double track, new stations at Crescent Beach; 72nd Ave. in Delta; New Westminster; Kensington in Burnaby and Renfrew St. in Vancouver. This would give end to end travel times from White Rock to Vancouver, in the 50 minute to 60 minutes region, which is competitive with travel times with car and better than the current transit service. For added comfort, as done in Europe, 'Bistro' car, offering light refreshment could also operate on the route, offer a service unavailable to current transit users.
In Europe, TramTrain costs start at about $5 million/km. to build, depending on the quality of service that is provided. A quality hourly TramTrain service to White Rock, would cost less than 1 km. of the proposed UBC Subway!
The only impediment is the complete lack of political will to plan for anything other than expensive metros and ecologically destructive highways. Passing legislation to compel the railways to allocate 'pathways' for regional passenger rail services is an anathema to politico's and the railways highly paid lobbyists. One wonders if the spectre of 'Peak Oil' will changer the mindset.
In a region where there is a cemented 'metro' ind set among planners and politicians, a White Rock to Vancouver would show case 21st century transportation, with the bonus of being in operation by 2012, if we start planning for it today! As well, a successful White rock to Vancouver TramTrain service would make it much easier to implement the Vancouver to Chilliwack TramTrain interurban!
By Brian Lewis, The Province
January 5, 2010
Time to lobby for the train to stop in White Rock
It's always a challenge for the City of White Rock to raise enough tax dollars to run its micro-metropolis because there's only about 18,800 residents and a limited business tax base within its 5.16 square kilometres to pay the bills.
Thus, as Mayor Catherine Ferguson acknowledged recently in the Peace Arch News, the city has tough choices to make in setting the 2010 budget.
But there are also opportunities for the little town to increase its economic development cash flow, and that's why one White Rock councilor is working on the railroad (or the railway, as they're known in Canada.)
Doug McLean, a business economist who has served on White Rock's council since 1993, has launched an initiative to return his city to the days when its historic waterfront train station was a regular north-and southbound stop for passenger rail service between Vancouver, Seattle and U.S. points beyond.
The picturesque station was last used for regular passenger service in 1975 but that longtime practice ended due to dwindling ridership.
Currently the station houses the White Rock Museum and Archives.
However, as McLean notes, times have changed and he makes an excellent case for why passenger rail service should return to his city.
First of all, Amtrak now runs a second daily train between Vancouver and Seattle on a pilot project basis so having a stop in White Rock means that anyone south of the Fraser could catch a train for Seattle without having to start the journey in Vancouver.
"It also means you could do day trips to Seattle and be home that evening or, if it's a weekend, you could catch a Mariners baseball game and be home in the evening."
More importantly, it would also allow tourists from Canada or the U.S. to get off the train in White Rock and spend time — for the day, dinner or overnight at B&Bs — in the seaside resort.
Ironically, the deal to return White Rock to its glory days of passenger rail was almost done in 2001.
The city and most of the key stakeholders had even signed a memorandum of understanding to make it happen.
Those stakeholders included Amtrak, Burlington Northern and Sana Fe Railroad (it owns the rail line), Transport Canada, as well as Canadian and U.S. customs.
But the initiative fell off the rails, thanks to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the U.S.
"U. S. security requirements changed immediately and that killed the initiative almost overnight," McLean says. "But now I think it's time to reapproach it."
To that end, McLean recently sponsored a city council motion, which passed unanimously, to create an Amtrak passenger pail select committee to pursue the initiative once more.
This new group will likely include many from the original task force from 2001.
And so far, the reaction from both the public and rail stakeholder has been good, McLean says.
"We know getting this done won't be easy and the major hurdle will be getting approval from U.S. security," he adds.
"But we think it'll benefit our whole region and over the longer-term it has potential to provide commuter rail service into Vancouver."

Low Hanging System Print On Demand Business
March 17, 2018
Interested in launching an e-commerce store, but don't have a ton of capital that you can use to buy inventory? Here's what you can do – consider setting up an Amazon affiliate store on WordPress, as opposed to a regular e-commerce store.
All you need to do is to grow your traffic and make sure that your website visitors convert to paying users.
In return, you can make tens of thousands of dollars per month … and eventually sell your website, making enough to buy a yacht and spend the rest of your life cruising the Caribbean. Though, this is the absolute perfect scenario, as you can probably tell.
(For inspiration, check out this Amazon affiliate store, which made $40k+/month without relying on paid traffic, or this store, which was acquired for a cool $33 million.)

Recounting The Great American #ConspireToSmile Kickoff
When I was day dreaming about #ConspireToSmile a few months back and thinking about how it might all play out, there were lots of open questions. One of them was whether or not anyone would "get it" and, if so, would it have the intended effect? I started to think about who might play on the record and what songs to record and so on and so forth. One thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to hold a kickoff concert at the Great American Music Hall, because the venue holds such a special place in my mind. I wasn't exactly sure who would join me as my "folks," but when they asked me how to bill it I said bill it as Reid Genauer & Folks and told my booking agent Josh not to worry about it. The truth is, he probably should have worried a tad. I certainly did. The whole thing kind of scared the shit out of me, but fear is a great motivator and passion is an even better one and the gig held a healthy does of both.
First Set: video credit @brianmarkowitz @deadheadland
Fast forward 2-3 months. The answers to most of those questions are still kind of evolving organically, but mostly they are coming into focus and a set of occurrences are, well, occurring that reinforce my conviction that #ConspireToSmile will serve our little circle as I hoped it might. Even if it's just a few hundred people. Even the act of talking about the album with my band mates began to create a little sparkle in my brain. A bright spot. Then came engaging conversations, phone calls and emails started flying around. One fateful day a Dropbox folder with a dozen drum tracks emerged from Dave "Double D" Diamond, then guitar tracks, bass tracks, vocals, pedal steel, piano violin and wouldn't you know it... rough tracks - songs I say. But more importantly, there is a palpable buzz. The very act of making the recording is generating literal and metaphorical smiles, a creative connectivity for me certainly but also for my fellow co-conspirators. A broad-mouthed big-hearted thought experiment is taking root with our bohemian community of miscreants and spiritual gangsters. The conspiracy to smile has ever so subtly started to sing on its own.
This past Friday, I was going kinda pre-show mental. I had the pre-show jitters. I guess I felt like the evening was an unveiling of something bigger than a show and bigger than an album. It was a shared unveiling of explicit statement of shared solidarity that happened to have my name on it. I get that the notion can come off as cliche - I'm not really a rainbow and unicorn kinda guy - I like dirty jokes, boozy parties and movies with swords and sex. But last Friday, I drove up in my VW snacking on carrots and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (that my wife made me) and wrestling car seats out of the way to free my gear. It never occurred to me that the venue would have my name sprawled across it. That was both amusing and kinda intimidating. And so I found myself writing set lists and re-writing them. Writing guest lists and rewriting them. Tweaking out more or less - frenzied.
Three things set me right. One - I met Brewster Kahle, the founder of Archive.org backstage and the man lit me up. He was talking about digitizing 150,000 vinyl recordings from the '30s and '40s of obscure American music - stuff like people yodeling and whistling and singing bizarre old folk songs. I love Archive.org. (between Assembly of Dust and Strangefolk we have some 1,300 recordings up there) and I was thrilled to meet Brewster. He's a hero of sorts. I was interested in the content of what he was saying, but I was equally as captured by his person, his passion, his facial expressions and his large and welcoming presence. The unspoken emotion and the twinkle in his eye as he talked about the things he loved. His natural ability to conspire to smile set aside all of my concerns and the backstage clatter faded. I was left with him, his nephew, his friends and that big ole shit eating grin.
The second was simply taking the stage. We could feel the chemistry on stage and in the room. I've heard artists and athletes refer to it as "the flow" and it happens, I would wager, every third gig or so, but what was cool on this particular evening is that "the flow" was already in 5th gear when we took the stage; the air was thick with good intention. It felt like leaning on a bubble. Everyone came to the show with the explicit intent to smile for a while. Everyone there had a need and/or an objective to commune with the sweeping souls of rock and roll.
Lastly, talking with "folks" throughout the night, musicians, friends and fans alike made my night. We all enjoyed the hell out of the performance. We felt mutually happy with our makeshift band for having made it happen. However, I'm not sure I have ever given or received so many warm personal greetings in my life, maybe with the exception of my wedding. So as I look back at last Friday I see it as a kind of successful "beta test" and I feel a growing certainty that for those of us who need it, who best believe it, we can and will #ConspireToSmile. A heartfelt high five to my brethren - Jon Trafton, John Leccese, Jay Lane, Dave Diamond, Jason Crosby, John Coretto, Uncle Jim Ratner, Jon Hart, Andre Gardner, Roger McNamee, Colonel Alex Koford, Mike "Fat Jimmy" Pascale, Casual Craig 'cMac" MacArthur, Ross James & the rest of The Mermaids and madmen. To @BobMinkin, @Jayblakesburg, @JamieSoja for rock photos and to each of you who tested the #ConspireToSmile raft and set it afloat - you my friends lay the the f*cking dust...!
- R. Reinhold Genauer
PS: Special thanks to Brian Rhashap and the Bearded Unicorn Band. You rock (ever so softly).

In celebration of UN's Nelson Mandela International Day
Booth UC former refugee and graduate is a voice for those who have no voice
WINNIPEG –"What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead." – Nelson Mandela
Faven Mergia lives and breathes these words of Nelson Mandela. She was once a stranger to Canada and Booth UC. Now as a Canadian citizen and Booth UC graduate, she is paying it forward.
She is a two-time award winner having been presented with both The Strive for Excellence and the Emerging Leader of the Year awards.
"Ever since I was little, I've wanted to get into a career where I could help and support people," she explains. "Our family received a lot of help in the refugee camps from social workers and community workers, so I knew that that was something I really wanted to do, my way of paying it forward."
Booth UC's social work program has a long-standing reputation and has had very successful graduates like Faven who have adopted and implemented Booth UC's motto of "Education for a Better World" into their working and everyday lives.
Faven is highly regarded by Winnipeg's Ethiopian community and a true example of an individual who is able to overcome hardship and reach her dreams," says Professor Bonnie Bryant of Booth UC's social work program. "She lives out the school's vision — 'Education for a Better World'— in her work with newcomer youth on a daily basis and as a strong advocate for social justice. She is the voice for those who have no voice."

The first line you read is not the first line I wrote. That is an important note to make with my writing. See, even that sentence is a third edition (as too could be this one).
"It is important to make that note of my work."
No. Do better.
"That is an important note to make with my work."
Closer. But no.
"That is an important note to make with my writing."
Yes, this will satisfy. You may proceed.
This is the painfully peevish process by which I write and by which I live. The truth is simple. I am afraid to get it wrong. I know what I have to say, but my fear of constructing the wrong arrangement of words often keeps the cursor beating against a blank screen. I have confidence in the idea, in the inspiration, and I know it needs to be said. Still, there is a native whisper in my mind that says, "if it isn't perfect, it isn't worth writing."
But that's not true. Wouldn't you agree? Perfection is subjective and can never be universally agreed upon. I concede this truth, but, still, I fear not being good enough to be as good as I can be. Too many times too late at night I welcome the whispers of doubt to a dialogue of self-deprecation. These cruel conversations echo sentiments bestowed upon me by others I've known in my life. We have all encountered the carriers of a lost soul and disadvantaged heart that confuse being cruel for being cool. It is no wonder now that I have adopted similar malice for myself. This is not an excuse but an explanation. People told me told that I didn't deserve to be happy. That was their shame. I believed them. That was mine. I internalized, bringing in what ought to have been left out in the cold. What is more, I am beginning to understand that the responsibility is mine. There is an expiration date on blaming others for my own unhappiness, and that day has dawned.
You know, I pride myself on being the friend my friends call whenever their cruel little whispers bend their minds. My friends speak of the same uncertainties and self-doubts that keep me up at night. What do I tell them? I tell them that they are going to be okay. That they have time. That they are going to get where they are going precisely because of where they are now. That now is necessary. That this moment, with all of its realities (rather they be hope, pain, joy, fear, or complete chaos), is indispensable in equipping them with the very knowledge, very strength, that will enable them to get where they are meant to be.
And I believe every word. But somehow these ideas I trust haven't applied to me. I have accepted this "no one is perfect" platitude as valid and forgivable… for everyone except myself. I have been a good friend to my friends, but I am realizing that I have been a terrible friend to myself.
But I am getting better. I am falling asleep sooner. I am fighting back against the wicked whispers. I am battling with all that I have to win over doubt and realize my full potential. I am doing the best I can, with what I have, where I am. And that is good enough.
Finally, I'll close this letter with a discovery I made recently – a discovery that has allowed a fairer perspective by myself on myself. A dichotomy exists between what I am and who I am. What I am is what I was born – the qualities (many of which I would not have selected) that I cannot change. My skin color. My looks. My mind. Who I am is who I choose to be. Who I am is how I choose to use what I am. I cannot change what I am, but I can use it to strengthen who I am. And by my own volition, I can work to embrace my intrinsic imperfections for what I think they may just be – good enough.
The first line you read is not the first line I wrote. That is an important note to make with my writing. See, even that sentence is a third edition (as too could be this one).

Does your life reflect an unchallenged devotion to Jesus? We are all worshipers, which means we will all turn to something or someone as our savior. For Christians, there is only one Savior. By faith in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, he has remade us into a new people who are called to worship him alone as one.
Are you marked by an abiding commitment to the body of Christ? The New Testament devotes a lot of attention to the importance of unity within the church. Not only does it reflect the God in whose image we have been created, but it demonstrates the hope of the gospel to the lost world around us. Jesus has broken down our divisions and calls us to unity as the body of Christ.
Are you devoted to making disciples? Through faith, God has not simply saved us from our sin. He has also saved us to participate in his work of redemption throughout the world. Every Christian has been called under the banner of the Great Commission, to make disciples, baptize, and teach the good news of Jesus wherever we go.
Regardless of ethnicity, gender, country of origin, upbringing, or socio-economic status we all have one feature in common—we are made in the image of God. Despite our differences, we are living in the story of God's redemptive work, which tears down the barriers that divide us. Following Christ means becoming a member of his household, one in which we will spend eternity.
Until then, an unbelieving world is watching. But what does it see? These days, we're faced with so many distractions that threaten to divide us, but God desires for his church to come together as one. When we do, we reflect his image in which we have been made.
God desires unity among his people. As we work to reconcile our differences, let us redirect our gaze where it belongs—on our Savior, Jesus Christ. When we do, we will truly grow into the people God designed us to become.

- Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning had a slow day (for him) with only 242 yards and three touchdowns. Manning is the top quarterback, statistically, but is still behind Rodgers, Luck and Stafford thanks to his age. But don't discount him too much. He can still win you some games in the next 2-3 years.
- Thanks to the injury to Jamaal Charles, Knile Davis saw extended action with 79 yards on the ground along with six catches for 26 yards. It's clear Kansas City didn't change the game plan once Charles was out so expect a lot of receptions. If Davis performs well, we could look at a time share.
- Meanwhile, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce should see more action after four catches for 81 yards. He should see plenty more work.

BOISE, ID. (AP) — The Idaho Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that a voter-approved initiative expanding Medicaid in Idaho is legal.
A majority of the five-member panel rejected arguments by the Idaho Freedom Foundation and its board chairman, Brent Regan, that the measure was unconstitutional because it delegated authority to the federal government and the state Department of Health and Welfare.
"Regan's arguments are without merit," Chief Justice Roger Burdick wrote for the majority of the justices in dismissing the lawsuit a week after hearing oral arguments.
Voters authorized Medicaid expansion in November after years of inaction by the Idaho Legislature. The Idaho Freedom Foundation and Regan challenged the law shortly after it passed with 61 percent of the vote and asked the court to order Idaho Secretary of State Lawerence Denney to remove the voter-approved law.
The law directs the state to expand Medicaid eligibility rules to include anyone earning less than 133 percent of the federal poverty level. That will provide access to preventative health care services for about 62,000 low-income Idaho residents. The federal government will pay for 90 percent of the estimated $400 million cost.
Lawmakers are working on plans to pay the state's share.
"We applaud today's decision by the court and look forward to seeing Medicaid expansion implemented in Idaho the way the voters chose," said Emily Strizich of Reclaim Idaho, the group that led the signature drive to get the initiative on the November ballot.
"From the beginning, we felt the state had a strong argument to make," Idaho Attorney General Lawrence Wasden said in a statement. "My office was honored to defend the will of Idaho's citizens."
A key part of Regan's argument was that the federal government could change the percentage it paid or how eligibility was measured for Medicaid, making the expansion unconstitutional because Idaho would be stuck with something voters didn't approve.
The majority of justices rejected that argument, noting that if the federal government upped the poverty level and increased the number of residents eligible for the Medicaid expansion, it wouldn't mean Idaho had to cover them.
"Rather," Burdick wrote, "because Medicaid is a cooperative federal-state program, if Idaho wanted to continue offering expanded Medicaid services, the Idaho legislature would have to decide to pass new legislation conforming with the amendment."
A majority of the justices also rejected Regan's argument that the federal government could reduce its 90 percent share of what it pays, also leaving Idaho with something voters didn't approve.
But the justices said the Idaho Legislature controls how much the state pays through its annual appropriation of funds.
"Accordingly, Regan's contention that the federal government can control Idaho's expenditure of funds is unpersuasive," Burdick wrote.
The majority also rejected Regan's argument that the expansion was unconstitutional because it was linked to federal law and therefore gave the federal government authority over Idaho. The justices noted many of Idaho's laws and programs are linked to federal benchmarks, and that the Medicaid statute itself without the expansion used federal law to determine eligibility.
"If we were to accept Regan's argument that any reference to a federal statute delegates lawmaking authority to the federal government, then many of Idaho's statutes would be unconstitutional, and in fact, the option of any cooperative federal-state program would be curtailed," Burdick wrote.
Regan also argued that the expansion gave the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare "unguided discretionary power that exceeds constitutional limits."
But the majority of justices said the expansion didn't give the department the option to determine Medicaid eligibility.
"Thus, Regan's argument that the statute delegates uncontrolled power to the department is unpersuasive," Burdick wrote.
Justices also ruled that the case rose to the level of urgency requiring the state's highest court to act.
Burdick, writing for the majority, said that an approaching 90-day deadline for when the state must submit its Medicaid expansion plan to the federal government and the Legislature's need to consider funding caused the case to rise to the level of urgency requiring the court to rule.

is Color?
|Color is light. The red you see coming from a stop sign looks red because the pigment in the paint reflects that particular color while the rest of the colors in the spectrum are absorbed. White light consists of all the colors. This fact is demonstrated when a prism is held up to the sunlight. It is seen that different colors are separated into the color spectrum. The prism actually bends the waves of the different colors of light.
What are
primary and secondary colors?
Primary colors are the colors that can be used to make all other colors, and that the primary colors can not be made by mixing any colors. Secondary colors lie between the two primary colors.
What Are Complementary Colors?
A pair of colors which can be additively combined to produce white light are called complementary colors, because together they complete the spectrum.
The blue we use as an additive primary color contains light from one-third of the spectrum. Yellow contains the light from the remaining two-thirds of the spectrum (red+green).
When blue and yellow light are added together, they produce white light. So one pair of complementary colors is blue and yellow. Another pair is green and magenta. Another is red and cyan. When complementary colors are combined subtractively, in equal amounts, they produce neutral grey colors, or black.
If a medium-value, medium-chroma red ink is printed over a medium-value, medium-chroma cyan ink, the result will be a grey.
It is easily seen on the color wheel that the complementary color pairs are directly opposite each other on the wheel. That relationship holds true for other colors than the ones shown. For example, orange lies between red and yellow on the color wheel. It's complement would be a cyan-blue color on the opposite side of the wheel. The complement to a green-cyan color would be a magenta-red color.
It is thought that red and green were complementary. They aren't. There's no red color of light that can be added to any green light to produce white light. And there's no red paint that can be mixed with any green paint to produce a neutral grey. Many people think complementary colors are so called because they look well together. Complementary colors are often combined to produce a pleasing effect. But they're called complementary because they complete the spectrum.
Hue is the most obvious characteristic of a color. There is really an infinite number of possible hues. A full range of hues exists, for example, between red and yellow. In the middle of that range are all the orange hues. Similarly, there is a range of hues between any other two hues. The color wheel shows each of the six colors with medium value, and relatively high chroma.
These scales show red, magenta and blue hues in a range of chromas, all with medium value.
Chroma is the purity of a color. High chroma colors look rich and full. Low chroma colors look dull and grayish. Sometimes chroma is called saturation.
These scales shows low chroma red, magenta and blue, in a range of values.
Value is the lightness or darkness of a color. Sometimes light colors are called tints, and dark colors are called shades. All high chroma colors must necessarily be medium in value (when created by subtractive color mixture).

The African region is set to derive even greater benefit from the recent upgrade to the South African National Space Agency's (SANSA) Space Weather Regional Warning Centre located in Hermanus in the Western Cape. Unveiled recently by South Africa's Minister of Science and Technology, Mrs Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane, this state-of-the-art facility is the only regional warning centre for Africa and integral to protecting satellites and the continent's national power grids and communications and navigation systems from the harmful effects of space weather.
According to SANSA CEO, Dr Val Munsami, extreme space weather storms are a risk that could endanger the economy, costing South Africa billions of Rands if not mitigated effectively. Governments in several countries, including the USA and UK, have recently listed space weather on their National Risk Registers.
Acknowledging the vital role of the SANSA Space Weather Centre in mitigating the disruption of electricity blackouts, satellite communications failures and commercial aviation services, the Minister also highlighted the significant role of space science in building economic development and stimulating research and development (R&D) cooperation in building a knowledge economy.
An extreme space weather event or solar superstorm is a potentially high-impact, low-probability natural hazard. Due to a growing awareness of the potential consequences of extreme space weather, governments in numerous countries now consider this as an element of national risk assessment.
Since its inception in 2010, SANSA has operated the Space Weather Regional Warning Centre under the auspices of the International Space Environment Service (ISES), which coordinates global space weather activities. The centre is mandated to develop South Africa's space weather capabilities, provide government, industry and the public with a space weather operations system and improve the understanding and awareness of space weather in Africa.
The centre's space weather information wall now consists of 15 high-definition 46-inch screens, each displaying live satellite images of the sun in different wave-lengths and presenting real-time data from SANSA's space monitoring instruments positioned across southern Africa, Antarctica and Marion and Gough Island. The upgraded system provides SANSA's team with a superior platform to monitor the sun and its activity in far greater detail for more accurate space weather forecasts, warnings and alerts, as well as environmental data on space weather conditions for use by governments and private-industry users in Africa.
According to SANSA MD, Dr Lee-Anne McKinnell, "This new facility will undoubtedly add significantly to our space weather service offerings, improve our understanding of our solar terrestrial environment and enable SANSA to further leverage the benefits of space science and technology for the African continent."

What is an Executive Pastor? Ten Brief Thoughts
When you look at most church websites, you'll notice the typical roles of the pastoral staff. There's the senior pastor who functions as the primary leader and preacher of the church. There's the associate pastor whose role is fluid and pretty much does whatever the senior pastor needs. And more often than not, there are the various life stage pastors (Youth, College, etc.) that oversee a particular age group in the congregation.
However, one pastoral position that's been gaining prominence in the church these days is the role of the executive pastor. According to Thom Rainer, the trend of executive pastors has been growing in Western churches for the past four decades. And while traditional pastoral roles have clearly defined expectations, "the role of executive pastors has been nebulous and changing."
So what exactly is an executive pastor (XP)? How are they supposed to function in the church? And if you're a pastor or church member, does your local church need an XP? Here are ten brief thoughts on this modern yet confusing role.
Note: Special thanks to Tim Beltz (Sojourn Network), Michael Lee (All Nations Church), and Jamie Dunlop (Capitol Hill Baptist Church) for pretty much providing all this information for me.
1. What is an Executive Pastor? From my understanding, the XP is a person on pastoral staff who oversees all the "executive work" of the church. This pretty much entails the organizational aspect of ministry (e.g. staff, budgets, facilities, ministries, etc.). This is supposed to free the senior pastor (SP) to focus on what he should probably be focusing on: preaching, praying, and vision-casting. So while the SP leads, the XP manages; the SP inspires, the XP organizes; the SP proposes, the XP implements.
One friend illustrated it this way: The church is like a ship. While the elders and senior pastor point to where the ship should be going, the XP tries to make sure the ship makes it to its destination.
2. The Role of the Executive Pastor Looks Different in Every Church. The role of the Executive Pastor looks different based upon the gifts and needs of the senior pastor that he's working with. Below is a very helpful chart on how the XP role may look like depending on the SP that he is working for.
So if the SP's main gift is vision-casting and teaching (like most SPs tend to be), then the XP needs to be more strategic and offer managerial support for your church. So a lot of the XP's function actually depends on the gifts or desires that are lacking in the senior pastor.
3. What Executive Pastors Are Supposed to Do. From my understanding, true XPs are supposed to oversee all the executive work within the church. This includes overseeing staff, ministries, facilities, budgets, etc. This doesn't mean he literally does everything; rather he oversees it. As a result, the XP ends up knowing more about what's going on in the church than even the senior pastor.
Now if the the XP oversees facilities and ministries while the SP oversees staff, then I think they're both functioning in the executive role. And I think this is fine if the SP wants to do this. But he needs to realize that he is also technically doing executive work, which makes things a little confusing.
4. A Lot of Churches Get the Executive Role Wrong. I think a lot of churches throw the label "Executive Pastor" around without really considering if this is really an XP role. For example, if your XP is mainly emailing people and taking care of logistics, he's probably functioning like an administrator. If your XP is mainly overseeing your church's volunteers, he's probably functioning more like an operations pastor.
And nothing's wrong with this. But you probably shouldn't call him an XP because it's a misapplied title. It'd be like calling someone an Education's Pastor when they're only overseeing the 1st graders. The title doesn't match the role.
5. How to Tell If You're a True Executive Pastor. Again, this role is fluid based upon the strengths of the SP, so the XP at one church may look different than the XP at another church. However, there are two things that I consistently see in churches with true XPs: a) The XP is overseeing staff b) The XP is in the elder meetings. If one of these two are missing, then I'm not sure if your XP is a true XP.
6. Why Asian Churches Don't Have Executive Pastors. While most mainstream churches are starting to hire XPs, I don't see many predominately Asian churches following this trend. Why so? Well, I think it's largely because senior pastor's are used to overseeing everything. The SP is supposed to lead, organize, oversee staff, meet with ministry leaders, etc. But are SPs really supposed to be doing all of this?
I think this is based more on our perception of what a SP ought to be doing rather than what a SP is supposed to be doing.
7. I Don't Think Hiring an Executive Pastor is a Liberal Trend. I think some pastors and churches get scared of the idea of hiring an executive pastor. For some of us, this all sounds very business-like and the church isn't supposed to be a business. And so when we see that it's mainly megachurches that have XPs, our suspicions are heightened.
However, I think this is a somewhat ignorant way to look at the church. Yes, the church functions as the body of Christ. But let me ask you a question: does your church file taxes? If so, then it also functions as an business. Does your church receive tax breaks? If so, then it also functions as a non-profit. So yes, the church in its essence is a royal priesthood, a holy nation, etc. But in its context, the church functions as many other things. And this is where churches may need XPs.
8. Conservative Churches Have Executive Pastors. If you still don't believe me and think that this is a flaming liberal trend that only church-growth tribes adopt, just know that John Piper hired an executive pastor. So did Mark Dever. And Tim Keller. While this shouldn't validate the XP role, I think many of us will find this strangely comforting.
9. When the Executive Pastoral Role Goes Wrong. I think the XP role goes wrong when the church emphasizes the business-side of church over the spiritual side of it. How does this happen? Well, I think it's most often seen in the type of XP they hire. If a church hires a businessman for this role because of his business background, then the church is probably losing sight of who they are.
Instead, churches should hire a pastor for this role because he brings a theological and shepherding element to this role. So yes, it's nice if XPs know how to read financial statements. But I think it's more important that they're spiritual and aren't just organizing but shepherding through their organization.
10. Not Every Church Should Have an Executive Pastor. By no means am I saying that every church should hire an executive pastor. In fact, some SPs probably shouldn't have one because they're fine without one or quite frankly too controlling to ever work with one. But man...some SPs desperately need a XP and can probably never move their church forward until they get or.
However, if a pastor or church does decide to create this position, I do think it's helpful to know what you actually want from this position. After all, the XP is supposed to bring organization and clarity for your church. But if the XP's role itself isn't clear and organized, then you're probably hindering his work before it even began.

When it comes to industries that are growing in the United States people are quick to think about such ones as the technology and manufacturing sectors, but one of the industries that is set to enjoy some of the highest amounts of growth is the health care sector. As stated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS),the U.S. is projected to add more than four million jobs by 2022, making it an extremely exciting and promising industry for those looking for a career.
If you are looking for ways to break into the healthcare industry and be part of the job growth but aren't quite sure what career is right for you, then you'll want to read on. Here we'll take a look at five exciting healthcare career options.
Nurse Anesthetists
While a nurse anesthetist position isn't one that is talked about often, it can prove to be a very lucrative career track. Valley Anesthesia provides the opportunity to enrol in NBCRNA Recertification allowing you to work as a nurse anesthetist. In this career you will be the one giving patients numbing and pain medication during surgical procedures. According to the BLS the annual salary is $154,390.
For those who are looking to pursue a career in the healthcare industry but not necessarily in the traditional locations of a clinic or hospital, then a career as a pharmacist may be a great option. The annual wage for pharmacists is $114,950 and a doctor of pharmacy is suggested and often required. You need to have a firm grasp on physiology and anatomy, as well as chemistry. Not only will you be dispensing prescriptions, you'll also be consulting with patient's to ensure the medication is safe to take.
Health Information Technician
As a health information technician, you will be able to blend the best of two worlds. Not only will you be working in the healthcare field, but you'll also be working in the sector of technology and information systems. This field is just on the cusp of major growth and evolution, so there looks to be very exciting times ahead.
Speech Language Pathologist
For those who enjoy working with kids, you may want to consider a job as a speech-language pathologist. They don't only work with children, but in many cases that is the majority of the patients. You may work in a clinic, hospital, or even in the school system. You'll be working to help patients that have communication disorders related to speech.
Physical Therapist
Another spin on the healthcare field all together is a career as a physical therapist. In this job you'll be helping patients to recover from injuries and illnesses. The focus will be on building strength in the patient's muscles, joints and body, so this is a very physical job.
An Exciting Industry at an Exciting Time
The healthcare industry is one that is filled with all kinds of different opportunities and career paths, and thanks to the amount of growth that the sector is experiencing, there's never been a better time to break into it.

I started trying to follow your family tree outline...but I got lost quickly! ;) Glad you had a great visit! And that's just so neat to think of two sets of twins for your grandparents!
- June 10, 2012 at 8:16 AM
I even tried color coding it! LOL... family trees get complicated. It is fun to have two sets of twins in the family. The funniest think to me is that the grandtwins are 3.5 years younger than the Great-GrandTwins!
I'm the oldest grandchild at 32 years old. Darian and Daylynn are the youngest grandchild at 10 months. What a span!
My mom and her brothers are all 5 yrs apart. Mom was born, 5 yrs later Duane was born, 5 years later Darrin was born.

- Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge is a compilation of 20 islands and several small tracts encircled by the spring-fed waters of Kings Bay. The refuge is a favorite winter home of the endangered West Indian manatee. This refuge was created primarily for the purpose in protecting this docile mammal. It aids in preserving Florida's most significant naturally occurring warm water refugium for the manatee and provides critical habitat for approximately 25% of the nation's endangered Florida manatee population.
Six hundred million gallons of fresh water flow daily from more than 30 natural springs. The temperature of the water flowing from the springs remains a constant 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Manatees, being a tropical species, cannot survive for extended periods when water temperatures fall below 68 degrees Fahrenheit. These warm water springs are essential for manatee survival.
Recreation - Visitors to Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge will find boating, fishing and wildlife viewing opportunities. The refuge also permits water sports and the staff offers environmental education programs. Historians will want to note that several miles west is Crystal River State Archaeological Site where visitors may view prehistoric artifacts. Bicyclists will find the trailhead to the Withlacoochee Meander Bicycle Route located in the state archaeological site. This bike route is a 120-mile junket that winds in and around three tracts of the Withlacoochee State Forest. Most roads are well paved. Canoeing and hiking opportunities branch from the bike route.
Climate - Winters in west central Florida are normally mild with occasional temperatures dipping into the 30's and 40's Fahrenheit. However, averages range between 52 and 64 degrees Fahrenheit (11 - 18 Celsius). Summers are normally hot and muggy with temperatures and humidity usually exceeding 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Averages range between 81 and 83 degrees (27 - 29 Celsius). Precipitation for the central west area ranges between 52 and 56 inches per year.
Location -
Located in western Citrus County, next to the town of Crystal River consisting of twenty islands and several small parcels of land surrounded by the crystal clear, spring-fed waters of Kings Bay.

According to the FPB's recent Referendum survey on the 'Cost of Compliance', complying with employment legislation is the costliest administrative burden faced by small businesses in the UK, totalling almost £2.4bn each year.
On 1 October 2009, business owners will be expected to cope with a raft of legal changes, including those related to employment such as increases in the National Minimum Wage (NMW) and an increase in the cost of redundancy.
"Many firms are worried that they are not following the correct redundancy procedures when they have to lay off staff," said the FPB's policy representative, Matt Goodman. "Looking ahead to October's one-off increase in the weekly wage limit used to calculate redundancy payments, they are also concerned that it is becoming a more expensive process."
He added: "There is a knock-on effect. The increase will also affect other statutory compensation payments, including unfair dismissal awards, compensation for non-compliance with flexible working procedures and compensation should a statement of employment particulars not be provided to an employee."
Mr Goodman urged entrepreneurs to put in place watertight procedures via the FPB's Employment Guide, which is updated annually and contains guidance on every aspect of employment, including practical help on complying with the law.
The latest available data from the Tribunals Service shows that the number of employment tribunals in the UK soared from more than 115 000 in 2005 to almost 190 000 in 2008.
The survey found that smaller-business employers spend £259m each year on work associated with dismissals and redundancy. They spend a further £391m on absence control and management, £237m on maternity, £333m on disciplinary issues, and £1175m on holidays and any other remaining aspects of employment legislation.
Companies in the South East were found to spend the most on employment law out of 12 regions surveyed, at £361million annually. London firms faced the second-highest bill at £332m, followed by £272m for those in the North West. Smaller businesses in the North East were found to face the smallest annual bill for complying with employment law, at £71m.
FPB member Mark Ashton, of Ashton Marketing Services Ltd in Leicestershire, believes the FPB's Employment Guide can help other business owners to negotiate the minefield of employment red tape.

JOYCE JOHNSON, M.ED, CRC, LMHC, PhD (c)
JOYCE JOHNSON, M.ED, CRC, LMHC, PhD (c)
Joyce always knew her career path would evolve around assisting people. After completing a Bachelor's degree in sociology from The City College of New York in 1997, she learned about Hunter College's program in Rehabilitation Counseling. There she completed her Master's degree in Education as a Rehabilitation Counselor in 2001. While still enrolled as a student she earned her certification as a Rehabilitation Counselor with a specialty in working with individuals with substance abuse issues. Joyce's internships as a student lead her to work in methadone maintenance, out-patient, re-entry and a residential therapeutic community setting. After graduation, she accepted a position at Samaritan Village as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor. The experience proved to be both challenging and rewarding with the opportunity to work closely with a diverse interdisciplinary team. Having demonstrated clinical expertise and strong leadership skills, Joyce rose through the ranks from a Counselor to Assistant Director of Clinical Services. Despite the satisfaction of working with the substance abuse population and the lasting professional relationships she developed, Joyce decided it was time for a career move. In 2005, she accepted a position at Coler-Goldwater as the Director of the Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling Department. Simultaneously she took on a position as an Adjunct Professor at Monroe College in the Department of Allied Sciences where she teaches courses in Medical Administration, Medical Assisting, Public Health and Nursing. In 2005 Joyce obtained a New York State License as a Mental Health Counselor. She utilized her license in 2009 as a stepping stone by creating a proposal to offer counseling service at her religious organization. She was hired by First Corinthian Baptist Church as a Christian Counseling Supervisor that same year. This opportunity afforded her the ability practice and operate with greater independence while serving the Harlem community. In 2010 she took on the role as a full-time College Professor at Monroe College. Joyce is currently enrolled in a PhD program to earn a Doctoral Degree in Human Behavior and development. When Joyce is not working she enjoys facilitating exams for different professions, conducting study groups for future rehabilitation counselors, and participating in church ministry activities.

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B)
In all of the advanced states after the world war II the most serious factor of welfare policies was a full employment policy. It, however, has become difficult to achieve a full employment under the current globalization and knowledge-based economy. The crisis of the welfare state has also been developed. Then, how is each state going to correspond to such the crisis of employment and welfare? Our research put a focus on Sweden because it has built the high level of welfare state, insisting clearly that a welfare state is based on a full employment. Labour market policies in Sweden give us a typical model handling changes of labour market and the crisis of welfare, and Japan can learn its experience. It's six points that became clear by this research. (1) The realization of a full employment has become difficult even in Sweden where it has been placed clearly as a central policy in s welfare state to achieve a full employment. (2) While diversification of employment is advancing, immi

grants, the young generation, female and the person with disability who are particularly in a vulnerable situation socially are excluded from labor market, or the quality of employment has dropped. (3) But, on the other hand a shortage of employment in the near future is highlighted as a big problem under the low birthrate. (4) Therefore, it is important to decrease the unemployment rate and raise the employment rate in order to fight a shortage of employment in the near future as well as to correspond to a current problem of unemployment, in particular one of the weak of labour market. ( 5 ) Swedish government is now developing labor market policy programs by the various shapes, and they are partly successful. (6) But their policies seem to be changing to workfare policies after 90's under the influence of policies of EU. Well, our report consists of 12 chapters. 1- Labour Market Policies and G/Rehn (Miyamoto), 2- The State of Labour Market and Changes of Policies in Sweden( Shinoda), 3- The role of Job Training in Labour Market Policies (Ito), 4- Gender Equality in Employment (Kita), 5- Current Issues of Samhall (Hukuchi), 6- Employment Policies for Young Generation (Sakurai), 7- Employment Policies for The Elderly (B. Viklund), 8- The Employment Policies of Handicapped person (Yokoyama), 9- The Role of Third Sector in Employment (Nakazato), 10- Studies Working Time Policies (Namie), 11- Decentralisation and Cluster Dynamics (G.Brulin), 12- Between Mean or Healthy Lean Production System (T.

Vitamin D (post #69711)
A bone density test uncovered osteoporosis in my spine and hips, which shouldn't be showing up at my age (56), especially since I've been taking calcium supplements for years.
Blood tests show that I am very low on vitamin D, which is necessary for absorbing calcium. While that may not be the cause of my osteoporosis, a lack of vitamin D can lead to other problems including heart disease. The doctor prescribed vitamin D supplements.
Then I remembered that the body uses sunlight to synthesize vitamin D--but for years I have protected my skin from exposure to the sun and applied sunscreen (SPF 60) every day. This could be a reason for my low D levels!
Long story short: Protecting yourself from sun exposure is still the right choice, but you may need to add some vitamin D to your diet.
Most people are low in (post #69711, reply #1 of 7)
Most people are low in Vitamin D. The RDA is too low and will soon be raised. I take 1000 I.U.s a day and have taken much higher doses at brief intervals as treatment for my osteoporosis.
Good luck treating your disease, you'll get lots of conflicting advice. Improvements aren't easily measured, my insurance only allows a scan every two years, so it's hard to tell if there is any change or to link changes to a particular course of treatment.
To make Vitamin D more (post #69711, reply #5 of 7)
To make Vitamin D more available, it is involved to dairy products, juices and cereals products that are then said to be "fortified with suplement D." But most vitamin D – 80% to 90% of what a person's human body gets – is obtained the sun light. Vitamin D can also be made in the laboratory as medicine.
Just took my child to the (post #69711, reply #4 of 7)
Just took my child to the pediatrician, who said that teenagers should be taking D₃ and calcium supplements.
All of this has become a (post #69711, reply #2 of 7)
All of this has become a current and choice item for discussion. Whether or not you are "too young" for this may also depend on your genes. Sunscreen has apparently been a two edged sword. And have you examined the solubility of the calcium supplements you have taken--some are virtually passed through the body without any absorption.
You're probably right that (post #69711, reply #3 of 7)
You're probably right that avoiding sun exposure did not cause my vitamin D deficiency. But I still use strong sunblock every day--it just feels wrong when I don't!--and take calcium and vitamin D supplements.
By the way, the doctor said to read the label and buy supplements that say "vitamin D₃." Not sure how D₃ is different from ordinary D, but at that time (2½ years ago) I saw both kinds on the shelves.
Vitamin D (post #69711, reply #6 of 7)
Hi Janet,
Last week my daughter's pediatrician finally conviced me to give my daughter a Vitamin D supplement-- I generally try not to supplement unless it's really necessary, but she said it's recommended for even young children-- my daughter is only 8. How is your supplement working out?
Cheers, Jen
Vitamin D is (post #69711, reply #7 of 7)
Vitamin D is obviously necessary for our body and proper health and it is one of the most important vitamins,but we should always prefer having food which is rich in Vitamins rather than taking any pills or supplements.

"Center Cemetery"

as they appear in the Town Records)
At a town meeting
held on December 22, 1740, it was "Voted that the
Selectmen and Thomas Bull be a committee to make surch
for a place for a burying place that may a Comodat the
holl town of Harwington."
At another town
meeting held on January 20, 1741, it was "Voted
on that the town Excepts the return that the committee
hath made concerning the exchange of sum land in order
to furnish the town with a Sofisant burying place."
At that same meeting it was also "Voted that Mr.
Daniel Messenger and Mr. Jacob Hinsdell and Mr. Jonathan
Hopkins Be a Commity in order to Give and Receive Deeds
in Behalf of the town Respecting Exchanging sum Land
in order for a Buring place for the town."
As a result of
this action the following deed was drawn. It is recorded
in Volume 1, on page 81 of the Harwinton Land Records:
"Know all
men by these presents that we Daniel Messenger, Jonathan
Hopkins and Jacob Hinsdell being a committee appointed
and fully impowered by the Town of Harwinton to mak
sum Exchang of land with the Reverent Mr Andrew Bartholomew
in order to accomodate ye said Town with a sutable peace
of Land for a Buring place for ye Dead do therefor in
ye behalf of the said Town on ye one party and Andrew
Bartholomew on ye other party agree as followeth: viz:
That ye town shal have seventy & two Rods of Land
on the Northwest corner of Mr Bartholomews Land which
is near the meeting house in said Harwinton it Being
part of ye lot East of said meeting house which land
is set off from said Bartholomew land in ye form: viz:
Twelve rods eight from said Corner and five rods South
from said Corner which land is to Continue forever to
be said Towns for ye use abov said and for ye Consideration
of ye same we do agree and Covenant that ye said Mr
Bartholomew shall have an equivalent seventy & two

in ye 15th year of his Majesties Reighn George ye Second
A D 1741/2. Signed Sealed & Delivered in presents
of Andrew Bartholomew, Jonathan Hopkins and Jacob Hinsdell."
Here are buried
many of the early settlers of the town. Reverend Andrew
Bartholomew, who as first minister served the town for
thirty-six year, was buried here in 1776. Hannah Wadsworth
Cook, daughter of Captain Joseph Wadsworth, who his
the Connecticut charter in the Charter Oak, was buried
here in 1786. In 1913, Frank D. andrews, a friend of
Newman Hungerford, together with Reverend Charles B.
Strong, made a list of all the gravestones inscriptions
which could be read at that time. The old stones are
crumbling and many of them can no longer be read.
Apparenty the
cemetery hadn't been well taken care of over the years
because, at a town meeting on October 4, 1886, it was
voted to direct the selectmen to make such improvements
in the Old Cemetery as they may think best by trimming
up the shade trees, removing those which are dead, setting
up and placing in proper order all the monuments that
are down and also to erect a fence on the line dividing
said lot from land of Mrs. Julia Burwell." That
was the fence on the south side.
Every year the
old stones show more and more wear. It will be only
a few years before ther inscrptions will no longer be

Last April I had the honor of attending a Biological and Ecological Sciences Coalition Congressional Visits Day in our nation's capitol. The event was organized by the American Institute of Biological Sciences and the goal was to inform members of Congress and their staff about the importance of federal support for biological research. I was grouped with other Massachusetts-based scientists during this endeavor and throughout the day we visited eight Senate/House offices in order to stump for our cause. If you want to read about the full experience, please visit the Early Career Ecologists blog, where BU graduate student Caitlin McDonough MacKenzie eloquently details the events of the day.
Over the summer, participants of the BESC national event were invited to take part in local visits within their home districts. As a result, a tour of the MSC was scheduled with Massachusetts State Senator, Thomas McGee. On the morning of October 7th, Dr. Geoff Trussell (Director of the MSC) led the meeting while Tim Leshan (Northeastern's VP for Government Relations) and I accompanied him, answering the Senator's questions regarding Northeastern's unique approach to community outreach and environmental research.
Overall, the visit was a great success. We were able to open up a dialogue with an influential and supportive member of our community. I know I speak for all of us at the MSC when I say that we are extremely grateful to lawmakers, like Senator McGee, who are willing to commit their time and share in our efforts to stand up for the environment, education, and research as we face the challenges of 21st century coastal living.
Ten days after our tour, on October 17th, Senator McGee was elected Chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party by a unanimous vote.

London may have its fingers in many different cuisines; if there's one thing we're particularly good at it's got to be curry. That's right, our capital is hands down one of the best places to get your curry fix, and even though the East side might be especially famous for its quality Indian food, the City has got some tasty spots too. Fancy an utterly comforting chicken korma or beautiful and authentic daal palak? These Indian restaurants in the City will sort you out.
Gunpowder – Setting foot in this home-style Indian kitchen takes you straight from Spitalfields to Southern Asia. They're not very picky in terms of region, as traditional goodies from all over India are served – albeit with a modern twist. Think spicy venison and vermicelli donuts, porzhi okra fries and karwari soft shell crab. The short but vibrant menu changes every month and is always full of surprises, subtly turning the act of 'going for a curry' into a full-on fine dining experience.
The venue is casual, small and often packed, so be prepared for a chat with your dining neighbours. On the downside, this means that there isn't much time for sticking around after you've eaten, as the staff will likely be keen to make space for the next set of hungry guests. It's more than worth it though – and in case you're still thirsty, cocktail bar The Culpeper is just around the corner.
Dishoom – If you're a true fan of Indian food, chances are you've already explored this extremely popular and exotic joint. After their Covent Garden branch – which opened in 2010 – was an immediate success, similar 'Bombay Café's' opened in Carnaby, King's Cross, Kensington and Shoreditch. So yes, technically this one isn't in the City but as our absolute London favourite, we simply couldn't resist including it on our list. An evening at Dishoom starts with a fabulous cocktail, followed by an array of small Bombayan dishes. Absolute favourites are the House Black Daal, Pau Bhaji and The Big Bombay.
Curry Leaf East – Those craving a no-fuss, hangover cure kind of curry are most likely to find what they need here. With a menu including everything from onion bhajia's to chicken biryani and laal maans, this is where everyone will get their standard curry fix. Going with friends? Try the group deal: for £29,95 per person, you and three (or more) friends will be served a mixed platter of Curry Leaf specials and Mango Lassi, following a curry of choice and plenty of sides.
Indian Fusion at Bitecross – And then there is Indian street food, which perfectly lends itself for a yummy lunch any day of the week. Bitecross is a daily food market (open from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm) at Whitecross St and, when coming from the Barbican, you'll find this Indian Fusion stall in the middle of the market on the right. What to expect? Fresh authentic Indian dishes including Gujurati curries and Kati rolls. Yum!
Brigadiers is also coming soon to the City. Read more about it here.
