AirAsia has been forced to break from its usual business model in India by offering passengers free checked-in baggage, it has been reported.
India's Business Standard revealed that following intervention by India's Directorate-General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), the new low-cost carrier will have to offer every passenger up to 15kg of free checked baggage.
The directive will come as a blow to AirAsia India, which makes a large amount of its revenues from ancillary services such as paid baggage.
It was planning to charge INR199 (approx. US$3.40) for up to 15kg of luggage, but the DGCA appears to have objected to the concept. Other domestic airlines, including LCCs like IndiGo and SpiceJet, do not charge for up to 15kg of luggage.
The regulator has now asked the AirAsia India to stop collecting the charges for the time being.
AirAsia India will launch on 9 June 2014, on the route between Bengaluru and Goa.

erin 4L needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 59 designs submitted by 13 freelance designers.
Adoption Support Alliance
Adoption Support Alliance is a nonprofit organization that helps adoptive families through the unique challenges of building a forever family. The target is adoptive families- those just starting the process and those who are in it and want to connect with others. We offer support groups, counseling and strive to build community among adoptive families.
http://www.adoptionsupportalliance.org is our website- we are working on redoing the website too so don't judge to harshly ;)
I'd like to stay away from any literal images (like people or hearts or trees). I like simple and delicate and sophisticated.
Here are some phrases that we use in descriptions of the organization: community that gets it, providing hope in the hard, forever families, thriving families, support and celebration.
Our organization is referred to as "ASA" often so the logo could have those letters in it.
There is an image of a triangle in the adoption field that is appealing.
I have attached our current logo but I would definitely like to stay away from the rainbow and would like a logo that does not incorporate our tagline.
I just wanted to encourage you to think outside of the box too- I would love a variety of different choices. There is a reason that I am not doing this myself so if you are inspired by something other than the stars or the initials or whatever I am open to things outside of the box!

Analysis of Selected Profitability Ratios in the Agricultural Sector
DOI 10.7160/aol.2019.110301
No 3/2019, September
pp. 3-12
Aulová, R., Pánková, L. and Rumánková, L. (2019) "Analysis of Selected Profitability Ratios in the Agricultural Sector", AGRIS on-line Papers in Economics and Informatics, Vol. 11, No. 3, pp. 3-12. ISSN 1804-1930. DOI 10.7160/aol.2019.110301.
The paper deals with the analysis of selected profitability indicators of Czech agricultural businesses of legal entities and their subcomponents, based on DuPont analysis. The effect of asset turnover ratio, net profit margin ratio and equity multiplier on the value of return on equity (ROE) and return on assets (ROA) is studied in relation to the legal form and size group. The analysis of the effect of sub-indicators is performed by way of a correlation analysis. Furthermore, the assumption about the influence of sub-components indicators on synthetic profitability ratios is verified. The panel data set we used was obtained from the Amadeus database. The analytical section is based upon accounting statements of agricultural businesses of legal entities in the Czech Republic within the period of 2011 – 2015. The analysis is based on the calculated values of ROA and ROE, including partial values of the sub-components indicator, by using DuPont analysis. The differences between the groups of businesses are tested through correlation analysis and subsequently evaluated with respect to the specifics of each group. The object of examination was more than 3000 companies annually, on average. The evaluated companies were divided, in terms of legal form, into joint-stock companies, cooperatives and limited liability companies, and in terms of size structure into small, medium and large businesses.

Question about Durabrand DWT1905 TV
Tonight I was moving my television. It was plugged in, but turned off. I saw a flash, heard a pop. Now I only have blue, green, white, and black colors. With this kind of television, is there a way for me to fix it? And if so, is fixing it going to be more expensive than just getting a new television? Thanks for your help.

Stop waiting for everything to be ready, perfect, or right to launch your business.
My dad's a farmer and he always says, "You want to know the best way to find out that corn will grow? Plant it." You can prepare and research yourself into a corner, but at some point the seed has to hit the earth.
Stop waiting for the website to be perfect or the elevator speech to be in place. Quite frankly, stop waiting until you finished your coach training. Stop waiting for all of that, because you really do already know enough to start building your business.
Here's a story from my own journey. From the moment I started my coach training I started my marketing training and I started marketing my business. It's one of the single most important factors to the success I have.
I didn't hold back. I jumped in and I made terrible mistakes. I launched my business anyway and it gave me momentum and it gave me some immediate results. I can tell you that an entrepreneur making money is more effective, productive and motivated than one planning to make money. That was huge for me. Just do it anyway.
My marketing mentor and coach right now says, "If anything is worth doing it's worth doing poorly to start with." I love that and it really is the key.
The same thing goes for those of you that are telling yourself, "You know, I don't really know if the time is right in my life to start a coach training program. I've thought about it, but there are the kids and the money."
There will never be a right time. I can promise you right now that there will never be a right time. There's only right now. I highly suggest that you do it anyway and go forward. Jump in, because you really don't know what will grow until you plant the seed.
For me, one of the biggest gifts I can give you in terms of marketing your business is: start immediately and plant it anyway.
It's okay to do things poorly in the beginning. It's okay to do things poorly in the end. We're always growing, developing and trying new things.
There's this wonderful quote I read a few weeks ago that said: "The cave that is the scariest to go into and the hardest to enter is where your treasure lies."
This is a moment for you. Whether you're already in a coach training program and you're looking at launching your business this is a moment, an "Ah ha, write this down, I'm going to do it anyway, I'm going to launch."

The resource has been added to your collection
The George Mason University archive of speech accents is a tool for linguists, speech pathologists, phoneticians, engineers who train speech recognition machines, and even interested laypeople. Volunteers who are native English speakers and non-native speakers were asked to read an elicitation paragraph in English that "uses common English words, but contains a variety of difficult English sounds and sound sequences." Visitors will quickly have the paragraph memorized while exploring different accents. There are several ways for visitors to find accents to listen to, one of which is by clicking on a map of the world, labeled "atlas/regions", or by language, labeled "language/speakers". Once visitors have chosen a region or language, the gender, and birthplace of the speaker will appear. Age and other data, such as "other languages" and "age of English onset", are provided to visitors when the link to a speaker is chosen. The "Generalizations" section contains "general rules that describe a speaker's accent", and they are based on General American English (GAE).

I was almost born in a theater, or so I was told. When I was about 10 years old, my mother informed me that she had gone into labor while sitting in the then-Blackstone Theatre awaiting the performance of a play. She could not remember the play's title because, as she said, "I didn't get to see even one second of it." She did remember, however and vividly, that she was with my father, who was there to review the play in his capacity as the theater critic for the Sun-Times.
They left, caught a cab and I was born a while later in the bygone Wesley Memorial Hospital. My father's review never was written but the show, so to speak, has gone on, casting me into a life that has ever since been filled with dozens of theaters and hundreds of plays.
Sadly, I don't attend the theater as often as I once did but, happily, I share a corner of the Tribune's offices with Chris Jones, who is this paper's theater critic and a man never loathe to express his feelings and opinions in print, or in person to me.
"So, what was last night?" I ask him on most mornings.
"You've got to see (name of play)," he'll say, or, "Don't waste your time on (name of play)."
He then fashions longer and more detailed answers in print for you, the readers.
The theater is his livelihood and his passion. He has been the chief theater critic for the Tribune since 2002. He has also written a couple of books: 2013's "Bigger, Brighter, Louder: 150 Years of Chicago Theater" (University of Chicago Press), a gathering of some 101 Chicago Tribune theater reviews and other articles from 1853 to 2012, and last year's "Rise Up! Broadway and American Society from 'Angels in America' to 'Hamilton'" (Bloomsbury Books), an incisive and thought-provoking look at how theater influences and reflects contemporary society.
Chris and I both have on our small adjoining desks copies of a new and very big book. It is "Ensemble: An Oral History of Chicago Theater" (Midway Books) by Mark Larson. It is nearly 700 pages long and filled with hundreds of voices charting decades of local theater history.
As Larson writes in the preface to his book, "The Chicago theater movement and I are about the same age, if you mark its inception, as I do in this book, with the founding of Playwrights Theatre Club in 1953."
Jones and I both admire the book, as does writer Kerry Reid, writing that it is "a sturdy, thoughtful, and at times poignant collection of voices of the now-famous and the never-well-known."
Jones and I admire Larson's energy. He conducted more than 400 interviews over more than four years, with some 300 making it into the book. Jones and I are among those hundreds.
Jones says in the book, "The core of my job, which is the hardest part of it, to go out and see and cover a broad array of theater, which really means going out in the city."
I say in the book, "Let's put it this way: 'Grease' was not an intellectually challenging show. I think it appealed broadly … and attracted a lot of people who were not generally theatergoers." (Yes, I go back to first production of "Grease" at the Kingston Mines in 1971).
The book's other voices are many and if you are a longtime theatergoer, you will recognize most of them. That's one the joys of this book and of any good oral history. In reading them, you are hearing from people who not only share your memories but also helped to shape them. You are transported.
"I could never have anticipated how open everybody was to being interviewed, how quickly almost all of them said, 'Yes'," says Larson.
A writer and educator for much of his career, Larson has an engaging oral history website, American Stories Continuum (americanstoriescontinuum.com), and one of those to whom he dedicates this book is that master oral historian Studs Terkel.
"The Studs way was not to ask a series of questions but engage in a conversation," says Larson, who was interviewed by Terkel twice and is included in a couple of his books. "And I have always been fascinated with the theater, ever since I was a kid."
The book is arranged roughly in chronological order with six sections containing 34 chapters. Most of these are devoted to theater companies — The Second City, Steppenwolf, A Red Orchid, the Goodman, Annoyance, Black Ensemble, Gift, Remains and many more — while other chapters focus on such seminal productions as "Bleacher Bums," "Moonchildren," "Grease" (which gets a section of its own, as does "August: Osage County" and a few others).
One can sense the enthusiasm of the interviewees by the lively, often playful and detailed nature of their remembrances. And why not? In a sense they are being given the opportunity to revisit their past, their relatively carefree youth and most seem to relish that.
It was exciting for me to travel back to the early days of "Grease," sitting on a crate to watch the show because there were so few seats; seeing wild "Warp!" for the first time; many fine Remains offerings; or watching, in order to write a review for the Sun-Times, "In the Belly of the Beast," a Wisdom Bridge production starring William Petersen and directed by Bob Falls.
That was a searing experience — great performance, great play — enhanced by my being seated between my father, Herman, and Richard Christiansen, there to review for the Tribune . "Here I am sitting between both my mentors," I say in the book. "And my father being Richard's mentor."
Christiansen's review from that 1983 night became justifiably famous for these words, "How do I account for the fact that minutes after leaving the theater ... I had to pull over my car to the side of the street so that I could clear the tears from my eyes?" Christiansen is all over this book and is a thread in the history that it charts. Before retiring from the Tribune in 2002, he had written thousands of theater reviews and other stories and in so doing helped define and nurture our theater world. He captured much of that in his 2004 book, "A Theater of Our Own: A History and a Memoir of 1,001 Nights in Chicago" (Northwestern University Press).
But back to this book, in which Larson devotes a glorious chapter to Martha Lavey, the luminous actress and longtime Steppenwolf Theatre artistic director who died in 2017 when she was only 60.
Reading what others have to say about her evoked for me a conversation she and I had almost 20 years ago. We were talking about theater and about actor John Malkovich when Lavey said, "People have always said that the camera never lies. But John (once told me), 'The camera is designed to lie. It's the stage that never lies.'"
And sometimes, as this books powerfully proves, the stage can also make magic.

Inflation in Bahrain increased to 1.8 per cent in January from 1.6 per cent in December, according to the latest data from the country's Central Informatics Organisation (CIO).
The rise in inflation has been driven by increasing food prices. Food costs rose by 0.55 per cent in January, according to the CIO.
Housing, water and electricity costs were broadly flat compared to the previous month.
Governor of the Central Bank of Bahrain, Rasheed al-Maraj, said in early January, he did not see inflation pressure returning to the Bahraini economy this year. Inflation peaked at 6.3 per cent in July 2008. It has begun to pick up in the past few months since falling to 1.1 per cent in November.

text: Teachers, Please see the message below from Richard Gill and please keep his wife and family in your prayers. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Richard Gill" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Aug 11, 2014 9:56 PM Subject: Update on Carole Ann and Mary Beth To: "Lynn Barber" <[log in to unmask]> Cc: Please, share this with my fellow Ag. Teachers. During a softball tournament at Brantley County Friday night, my eldest daughter, Mary Beth, tore her meniscus playing catcher, that is per an MRI today. She can still play to tolerance level. Immediately following the incident, my wife, Carole Ann, went in the dugout to check on her and was struck in the eye by a foul ball. We spent most of the night in the ER. A trip to a plastic surgeon today revealed multiple (more than the original three) fractures around the eye and cheek. The eye itself appears fine, now. There have been no signs of concussion. She is swelled and sore. We are soliciting prayers for her ensuing surgery and recovery. She will have three plates put in on Friday in Brunswick. Please remember Carole Ann and my whole family as we face this trial. We have all faith that God will see us through, but we seek the comfort associated with your thoughts and, especially, your prayers. Sent from my iPhone

The mating ritual of the honey bee is a mysterious affair, occurring at dizzying heights in zones identifiable only to a queen and the horde of drones that court her. Now a research team led by the University of Illinois has identified an odorant receptor that allows male drones to find a queen in flight. The receptor, on the male antennae, can detect an available queen up to 60 meters away.

WASHINGTON — Monday, Police arrested an eighth person accused in the shooting death of 10-year-old Makiyah Wilson last year.
Antonio Murchison, 26, is charged with first degree murder while armed. Monday is the eve of the one year mark since Wilson's death.
Previously, 11 people were indicted in the shooting of Makiyah Wilson. Police said Monday they have arrested eight people in the case, though they could not comment on the remaining three people, and could not release the names of the previous arrests.
A car pulled up to Wilson's neighborhood last July and opened fire while she was on her way to buy ice cream, police said earlier.
Last week, U.S. Marshals announced a $5,000 reward for information that leads them to a man named Isaiah Murchison, who is believed to be a gunman in the Wilson shooting. MPD would not say if Isaiah is related to Antonio Murchison, the man arrested Monday.
RELATED: She was 10-years-old when she was killed on her way to get ice cream. Now, her family is suing DC's Housing Authority for negligence
Makiyah Wilson was shot and killed on July 16, 2018 in the 300 block of 53rd Street NW. She would have turned 11-years-old on May 31.
More than 100 people marched in her honor in the city's Clay Terrace neighborhood in May of this year on what would have been her birthday.
RELATED: 'Please stop the violence' | NE DC neighborhood remembers Makiyah Wilson on her 11th birthday
Her mother, Donnetta, pleaded for an end to street violence.
"Stop the violence," she said. "Please stop the violence."
Makiyah's father, Michael, said he's confident the community supporting his family will be able to make a change.
"We are the leaders of the city right here," he said. "We got to step up and speak out."

text: Lufthansa will be the first airline in the world to equip all long-haul aircraft with the mobile EKG (Electrocardiogram) system, CardioSecur. In case of on-board medical emergencies, the compact, intuitive system will allow flight attendants without cardiological expertise to record an EKG for passengers and send the test results directly to a medical hotline on the ground. The system was initially tested in 2018 on the A380 fleet and it will now be available for medical emergencies on all long-haul aircraft within the Lufthansa fleet. The results of the resting EKG conducted directly onboard the aircraft provide a better basis for deciding whether it is necessary to divert a plane in order to provide medical care on the ground in case of medical emergencies, said Dr. Sven-Karstenu Peters, a cardiologist with the Lufthansa Medical Service. Cardiovascular complaints, according to the carrier, are the most common cause of medical incidents on board.

Are you sure?
This action might not be possible to undo. Are you sure you want to continue?
The challenge facing today's church is simultaneous and effective ministry to people of four widely divergent generations. More than at any time in history, pastors must plan programs that will appeal to a mosaic of groups and subgroups. This updated edition of Three Generations: Riding the Waves of Change in Your Church adds an entirely new section on Bridgers, the youngest generation and perhaps the most difficult one to reach for Christ.
Characteristics, interests, and values of each group--Builders, Boomers, Busters, and Bridgers--are explored in relation to the historical events and social trends that have shaped them. McIntosh thoughtfully analyzes the factors that influence each generation's relationship to the church, and he gives helpful suggestions for types of ministry and worship styles to draw members of that group.
Helpful tables offer summaries of information relating to each generation, including formative experiences, religious characteristics, and methods of ministry. Pastors, church leaders, seminary professors, and students will find One Church, Four Generations a valuable resource in mapping out strategies for relevant church programming in the twenty-first century.

The McIntosh Church Growth Network
There was a time not long ago when church leaders tried to minister to people as a single mass. No longer. Today's church leaders understand that ministry must take place among a mosaic of groups and subgroups—most notably generational cohorts.
Interest in generational research and studies has grown stronger as the world rushed into the twenty-first century. A good example of this interest was recently observed with the opening of the Ellis Island web site on April 17, 2001. A seven-year, 22.5-million-dollar project transcribing ship passenger manifests for the Port of New York between 1892 and 1924 was finished and placed on the web (www.ellisislandrecords.org). Officials expected heavy traffic but not the large number who logged on immediately. More than eighty thousand people logged onto the site at its opening and an estimated half million others were turned away! Traffic has dropped off some since then but remains steady at about forty to sixty thousand visitors a day.
The reason for the massive interest in the Ellis Island Foundation project relates directly to people's interest in generations. It is estimated that nearly 40 percent of Americans can trace a relative back to Ellis Island. Genealogists indicate that about six in ten Americans are researching their family history in an effort to shed light on the past—and future! What drives the desire to study generations? A large part of it is the search for greater understanding of ourselves.
Historically, four generations often exist together, interlaced in a particular moment of time: young, adult, mature, and senior. Today these four generations are called the Bridgers, Busters, Boomers, and Builders.
Not only are there four generations existing together, but there are four sets of value systems that are being advanced, each with its perceived needs and perspectives. When church leaders understand each generation's values, and how they were molded by events that define the generation, they can be more faithful in their use of limited resources to effectively fulfill the Great Commission.
The focus in the original edition of this book—Three Generations—was on the three older generations. At that time the Bridger generation was too young for many accurate predictions of their characteristics to be made. However, over the last seven years, Bridgers have gone through enough common experiences that a generational mystique is developing, a generational identity that touches all within their cohort in some way. While insights regarding the Bridger generation must be held loosely, due to the fact that they are still developing, there is enough information to begin building a helpful picture.
This new edition of the book builds on the first by adding information from new research on this newest generation to move into the spotlight. Also a few corrections of the first edition have been made, along with an updating of numerous facts and statistics.
It is my prayer that this new edition will continue to serve as a helpful resource as we together seek to win many precious souls from all generations to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As the writer of Psalm 89 exclaims:
I will sing of the lovingkindness of the LORD forever; To all generations I will make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth.
Psalm 89:1
Scripture uses the word generation in three different ways. It can be an age group in a family, a period of time, or a group of people connected by their place in time. The genealogical tables found in Genesis and Matthew are obvious examples of the first. When the Psalmist writes,
I will cause Thy name to be remembered in all generations (Ps. 45:17), he could have said
in all times or
in all ages, which is an example of the second. However, the third definition is what I am thinking of in One Church, Four Generations. A generation is a group of people who are connected by their place in time with common boundaries and a common character.
The study of generational change has been an important aspect of my life since 1983. In July of that year I left a seven-year pastorate to become vice president of consulting services for Dr. Win Arn at the Institute for American Church Growth, then located in Pasadena, California.
Shortly after I arrived, one of my fellow consultants, Rev. Robert Orr, shared some thoughts he had on the Baby Boom generation and their impact on churches. The interest he created was intensified about one year later while I was traveling by plane to a consulting assignment in New Jersey.
While on the plane, I found a November 5, 1984, copy of U.S. News and World Report and began reading its major article
Here Come the Baby Boomers. When I finished reading that article, I was hooked. For the past eighteen years, I've read, clipped, and filed just about every article I could find on generational issues. I honestly do not know how many articles I have collected, but the file that contains them is more than three feet thick.
In 1986 I became professor of Christian Ministry and Leadership at Talbot School of Theology (Biola University), where I teach courses on church growth, evangelism, and leadership. The study of generational change has continued to be one of my prime interests, and being a professor has given me the opportunity to pursue it. During the past eighteen years, I have spoken on generational change at denominational conferences, local churches, and seminars. I have also written several articles on the topic.
Why Another Book on Generations?
There were very few books on the topic of Baby Boomers in 1983 and none on Baby Busters or the Bridgers. Today as I review the books available, I can easily name more than fifty dealing with one or more of the generations. In the collection of books I have on generations, many are on the Boomers. Some are secular books, such as Paul C. Light's groundbreaking Baby Boomers. Others focus on the challenge Boomers bring to the church, such as Doug Murren's The Baby Boomerang. Still others, like Cheryl Russell's 100 Predictions for the Baby Boom, offer insights on the future of the Boomer generation.
Among the first books to address the uniqueness of the Buster generation were William Dunn's The Baby Bust: A Generation Comes of Age and Steven Gibb's Twentysomething, Floundering, and Off the Yuppie Track. Since those books hit the shelves, a large number of books have expounded on the characteristics and future of the Baby Bust. Among the newer books focusing on Baby Busters are The Invisible Generation by George Barna, Inside the Soul of a New Generation by Tim Celek and Dieter Zander, and Generating Hope by Jimmy Long. Two helpful books were written by Busters Todd Hahn and David Verhaagen, Reckless Hope: Understanding and Reaching Baby Busters and GenXers after God.
As might be expected, few books have focused on the Bridger generation. This youngest generation is just coming of age, and more books discussing their attributes will be coming in the future. However, the first book to attempt an analysis of Bridgers is The Bridger Generation by Dr. Thom Rainer.
Generational change has become quite a popular topic, and the book that seemed to start it all was Ken Dychtwald's Age Wave. This book alerted people to the aging of America. Then William Strauss and Neil Howe released their massive study, Generations: The History of America's Future 1584 to 2069. It has been reviewed and quoted in numerous publications and will likely form the foundation for future studies on the issue. Additional books on generational themes continue to find an audience. Rocking the Ages by J. Walker Smith and Ann Clurman reported on marketing to the various generations. The most popular book to expound a generational theme is The Greatest Generation by Tom Brokaw. First published in 1998, its popularity produced spin-offs of audiotapes and CD versions, as well as several tagalong books offering personal insights from the Builder generation.
My interest in generational issues, however, goes much deeper than a mere intellectual study. I have often felt a special kinship with Timothy, who was raised by his grandmother, Lois, and his mother, Eunice (2 Tim. 1:5). I too was raised by my grandmother and my mother. Ours was a multigenerational home—my grandmother was born in 1896, my mother was born in 1923, and I'm an older Boomer. Generational issues were always a topic of discussion in our home. Today I am the father of two Baby Buster children and three Bridger grandchildren. I continue to have a concern that generations work together.
As I have traveled, consulting with churches and leading church growth seminars during the past eighteen years, I have noticed that most churches target one generation exclusively— Builders or Boomers or Busters or Bridgers—while often ignoring the others. Most books and articles on the topic also seem to target a single generation.
As pastors and church leaders, most of us do not have the choice of working with only one generation. In most of our churches all generations are present, and we must build a ministry that includes them all.
That is why I have written One Church, Four Generations. While I certainly do not have all of the answers, I believe this book will assist pastors, church leaders, and laypersons to keep all four generations in view and gain some insights into ways to integrate the generations for effective ministry.
Readers of the first edition have found this book helped them to understand the challenges of synthesizing all generations under one ministry. Many describe how they gained a better perspective on each generation, as well as practical strategies for effective ministry to each one. Gaining insight into the undercurrents and discontent that exist between generations has been for many well worth the price of the book. Almost all described the first edition as a must read for doing ministry well in our day.
The Panoramic Approach
As I contemplated writing this book, I was faced with two possible approaches. I could write the book with a microscopic view, attempting to cover every detail, aspect, and nuance of each generation. Or I could write the book with more of a panoramic view, presenting the larger picture with a few aspects of each generation standing out like trees in a landscape.
I have chosen to take the panoramic approach, and thus broad generalizations about each generation should be expected. There are aspects of each generation that may not be highlighted as much as some may wish. I have not delved into the differences that minorities and various ethnic or immigrant groups might encounter. Nor have I touched on the differences created by geography, education, or economic conditions. In most cases, however, the generalizations suggested will fit about three-fourths of the members of the generation.
It is my hope that you will be able to identify enough with the insights suggested that you will gain a better understanding of the issues involved in ministering to multiple generational groups in your church. Working together in love is a key aspect of a healthy church (John 13:34–35).
Four Generational Waves
If you had to put everyone in the United States into four groups, how would you do it? On what basis would you group them? Would you use geographic location, educational background, income level, or entertainment preferences as determining factors? It would depend on your purpose.
If you had to put everyone in your church into four groups, how would you divide them? Since your purpose is ministry, finding common denominators for the people in your congregation could help you minister to them more effectively.
Certain people in your congregation are connected by a place in time, by common boundaries, and by a common character. We can say that those people are of one generation. Their ages may vary widely, but they tend to identify with each other because of national or world events they have all experienced, fads they have enjoyed, or prominent people they have come to know. They tend to share certain character traits or characteristics that reflect their time in history. The group is loosely held together by these experiential threads and by some common beliefs. They do some things in ways unique to the group, and they tend to see differences between themselves and members of other groups.
As we study American society today, we see that there are groups of people with shared characteristics and similar interests. We can fit most people into four broad groups.
Those who range in age from the late fifties and up can be called the Builders; the Boomers are those in their late thirties to mid fifties; young adults in their twenties to late thirties are the Busters, and those younger than twenty are the Bridgers.
As a generation moves through time, it causes a generational wave. Many members of a group will move through childhood, young adulthood, midlife, and retirement as a group, although the youngest and oldest members of the group will experience these phases at different times. As the group moves along, it creates changes or waves that are identified specifically with that generation. The larger the generation, the larger the wave it creates.
Ever since the beginning of the twentieth century, Americans have been fond of placing labels on groups of people that influence our culture. Remember these? bobby-soxers (1940s), beatniks (1950s), hippies (1960s), preppies (1970s), Valley Girls (1980s), and Gen Xers (1990s).
The influence of most of these groups was fairly small. They created little more than a stirring up of the sand on the beaches of change. However, when the Boomer wave between 1946 and 1964 crashed against the shores of change, we all took notice.
The Boomer wave is a generation bounded by the end of World War II and the decline of the high birth rate beginning in 1965. (Nineteen sixty-four was the last year with a birth rate of more than four million until 1989 when births once again reached that mark.) These boundaries set this generation apart from past generations and those that would follow. Like a tidal wave, we measure all other waves against it, particularly the waves just before and after it—the Builder wave and the Buster wave.[1]
The Builder Wave
The Builder wave came just before the Boomers. A get-it-done generation, Builders comprise two main groups, called the G.I. generation and the Silent generation. Influential members of this group include Bob Hope, John Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, and Billy Graham. Builders tend to be loyal, faithful, and committed. Today most are in their sixties or older and remember the Depression, World War II, and days with no TV.
The Boomer Wave
The Boomer Generation is the largest and most studied generation in U.S. history. It comprises two major groups: the Leading-Edge Boomers (LEBs) and the Trailing-Edge Boomers (TREBs). Influential members of this generation include Spike Lee, Oprah Winfrey, Sylvester Stallone, Connie Chung, and George W. Bush. Boomers have earned a reputation for being rebellious, affluent, and independent. Most are in their forties and fifties. They have lived during a strong economy, they vividly remember the war in Vietnam, and they cannot imagine the world without TV.
The Buster Wave
The generation that follows the Boomers is the Busters, born between 1965 and 1983. They are called Busters because their generation is smaller than the Boomer generation. They divide into two main subgroups: the Bust and the Boomlet. Influential members include Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Whitney Houston, and Greg Maddux. Now in their twenties and thirties, Busters may be the most abused, forgotten, and alienated generation of the four. This current generation of young adults has experienced a fluctuating economy, Desert Storm, and MTV.

Orange Rice Salad
6-10 servings
No Feta? Gorgonzola will work, as will Monterrey Jack, cut into small cubes. Let your taste buds dictate substitutions because this is one forgiving recipe.
3 cups cooked Basmati rice (The key is to soak the rice in water for 30 minutes, then rinse several times. Much of the starch is removed and the grains are never gummy, nor clingy.)
2-3 sweet oranges, peeled and cut into sections (save the juice and several sections for topping). Depending on the size of the orange slices, you may want to cut sections into several pieces.
1 small bunch green onions, chopped
¾ cup celery, thinly sliced
½ cup Kalamata olives, halved or sliced (no pits, please)
½ cup good quality mayonnaise
4 Tablespoons or more of the orange juice
1/3 cup, plus 1 tbs freshly chopped flat leaf parsley for topping
A pinch of cayenne or your favorite hot sauce
¾ cup crumbled Feta cheese
Mix everything but juice and mayonnaise and gently fold together.
Combine juice and mayonnaise and fold into salad mixture.
Add salt (you won't need much) and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Refrigerate for at least one hour and overnight if needed.
Sprinkle on parsley just before serving, arrange orange slices on top, and add more freshly ground black pepper.
Serve at or near room temperature.
So, what do you feed an unknown number of men who will arrive at your home for dinner, conversation and a friendly game of cards? That was my recent dilemma.
What would go well with grilled Moroccan Chicken and assorted vegetables? Some kind of filling salad, room temperature, good as leftovers. (Have you noticed that people don't RSVP anymore?)
Fifteen minutes of intensive Internet research led me to some ideas, and so I combined ingredients and created Orange Rice Salad. Ah, perfect! It doubles, or even triples, well, and tastes even better the next day. Try it for a crowd, or the family.
You can find dozens of rice salad recipes online, so feel free to combine the tastes that suit your family. Does someone hate celery (like my son-in-law)? Use chopped cucumber instead.

I am considering the title of this entry as part of the title for my research project for this term. I think it's going to be about Sagrada Familia, the cathedral designed by Antonio Gaudi.
Last term my title was "The Transformative Value of Masks in Kwakwaka' wakh Culture", and even though I didn't think it was a good paper, I got a good mark. In academia you can get away with a lot if you have a good, academic-sounding title.
I like making up titles.
I need help with some of the projects that I need to do around thisCastle, so I'm spending some time seeking a handyperson. I'm pretty confident that I could do some of the stuff, but I'm not confident with other bits of it. Also, I am not much of a self-starter and I am terrible at finishing things. Maybe I should just admit that I am spectacularly lazy. I would really rather be doing something else, so I'm willing to pay someone to do this stuff for me.
I am willing to pay somebody to get thisCastle into good shape so that it reads better than it does now. It's good, but I want to bring out its best.
I am probably also willing to pay someone to clean house for me. I'm just not good at cleaning.

Boron is a trace mineral element that, when taken in supplement form, can help improve your bone strength, increase levels of testosterone, improve your cognitive function, and decrease levels of inflammation in your body.
Boron was historically a fairly obscure mineral, but increasing amounts of scientific research are demonstrating that it plays a critical role in everything from bone metabolism to brain function.
If these benefits are what you are looking for, we've evaluated and ranked the ten best boron supplements on the market so you can make the most of its physiological benefits for your body.
1. Pure Encapsulations Boron Glycinate
Pure Encapsulations has the most minimal and easily absorbable boron supplement around. It's delivered using boron glycinate, which can be easily absorbed by your body, and the vegetable-based cellulose capsule is vegan-friendly.
With zero additional ingredients, this supplement delivers a respectable 2 mg dosage, which is plenty for most people. Unless you know you need a higher dosage, this should be your top choice.
2. Now Boron
Now Boron delivers a 3 mg dose of boron in the form of calcium borogluconate. It's contained in an animal-based gelatin capsule and only has a couple of additional ingredients: rice flour and stearic acid, both to hold the capsule together. It's an easily-absorbed form of boron in a fairly simple package, making it a good choice.
3. Swanson Triple Boron Complex
Swanson Triple Boron Complex uses three different forms of boron to ensure that this high-dose boron supplement achieves a high level of bioavailability.
With boron glycinate, citrate, and aspartate, the amount of boron you actually absorb from this boron supplement is going to be higher than many of its competitors.
Not everybody needs a high dose of boron, but if you do, Swanson Triple Boron Complex is the right choice.
4. Trace Minerals Ionic Boron
Trace Minerals makes their boron supplement in liquid form. Using an ionic salt form of boron, each serving (delivered with the measured dropper in the vial) delivers 6 mg of boron, along with a small amount of a few other trace minerals like calcium and magnesium.
The liquid form is the primary convenience of this supplement; while it's harder to get a precise dose because of the difficulty of accurately measuring small amounts of liquid, it's far easier to incorporate a couple of drops of this boron supplement into a shake or a smoothie.
It's a good choice if you've already got enough capsule-based supplements or medications in your life.
5. Bluebonnet Triple Boron
Bluebonnet is far from the only supplement manufacturer to make a triple source boron supplement using boron glycinate, citrate, and aspartate, but Bluebonnet does have a solid reputation for supplement purity.
This boron supplement delivers 3 mg per serving, and comes in a vegan-friendly vegetable derived cellulose capsule. It's a decent middle of the road choice.
6. Good State Health Solutions Natural Ionic Boron
Good State Health Solutions makes a liquid form of boron that's just boric acid dissolved in highly purified water.
This is a good option if you need a high dose of boron in liquid form, but for most people, the difficulty of measuring out the liquid in an accurate manner is going to offset these benefits for most people.
Keep it on your list if you do need a large volume of high-dose liquid form boron, though.
7. Life Extension Boron
Life Extension tries to capitalize on the multifaceted and evolving knowledge on boron's biological role by providing it alongside vitamin B2 for enhanced hormonal benefits.
It has a triple source boron complex like a few of the other boron supplements on the market, which will enhance its bioavailability, but the inclusion of vitamin B2 is hard to justify so far—our understanding of the function of boron is so limited that it's hard to definitively point to research showing that this particular combination is going to be beneficial.
8. Twinlab Tri-Boron
Twinlab makes a boron supplement that uses the same three-source combination of boron that you'll find in other boron supplements: boron glycinate, boron citrate, and boron aspartate.
It's delivered at a dose of 3 mg and comes in a gelatin capsule. Unfortunately, there are a few more extraneous ingredients than some of the other boron supplements out there, landing Twinlab Tri-Boron a bit lower in the rankings.
9. Nature's Way Boron Complex
Nature's Way makes a 3 mg boron supplement, which is delivered as an amino acid chelate. While amino acid chelates are usually well-absorbed, the manufacturer doesn't specify which amino acids this boron supplement is chelated with, making it difficult to compare with other supplements and making it impossible to match the supplementation protocols used in the scientific literature.
While it's not an awful option, other boron supplements don't have these drawbacks.
10. Vibrant Health Super Natural Boron
This boron supplement is delivered in the form of calcium fructoborate, and is paired with broccoli powder for some green superfood power. The boron dosage is 3 mg, so pretty solid. While green veggies are definitely beneficial, there isn't enough research to support this pairing either, so it makes it hard to recommend. To take advantage of the full range of boron's benefits, it's probably better to take a more focused supplement.
Boron benefits and side effects
Until fairly recently, boron was thought to be of importance mostly for plants, not for people. But a raft of scientific evidence is changing that perspective, and now, we know that boron can improve your health in a number of ways.
There's evidence that boron can boost your testosterone levels, improve your cognitive function, decrease inflammation in your body, and strengthen your skeleton.
Boron can boost your testosterone levels. Testosterone is a hormone that plays a role in everything from regulating your body fat concentration to building muscular strength to maintaining healthy sexual function.
Its omnipresent nature seems to make it prone to being affected by deficiencies in trace minerals like zinc and magnesium—that's why many testosterone boosters contain these trace minerals. Nutrition research suggests that the same may be true with boron.
A scientific study published in 2011 in the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology investigated the effects of a boron supplementation routine on blood levels of hormones and inflammatory markers (1).
The experiment involved a seven-day period of boron supplementation, during which the participants took 10 mg of boron every morning. At the study's conclusion, the researchers re-tested levels of the blood biomarkers measured at the study's outset.
They found that the boron supplementation routine resulted in a significant increase in testosterone and a significant decrease in estrogen. While testosterone is affected by a wide range of nutrients, this study demonstrates that boron should not be neglected from that list.
Boron can reduce inflammation in your body. The same study also found a significant decrease in pro-inflammatory cytokines, compounds that are linked to higher levels of inflammation in your body.
Additional evidence for this comes from a review study by Curtiss D. Hunt and Joseph P. Idso at the United States Department of Agriculture (2). The review cites evidence that boron plays a role in regulating the normal inflammatory process in your body.
If your boron levels are disrupted, the consequence could be abnormal inflammation. More direct evidence supports the idea that boron could be used to actively reduce inflammation in your body.
A study published in the journal Biological Trace Element Research by researchers in Romania tested whether a boron supplement improved symptoms in people with osteoarthritis, a classic inflammatory disease (3).
Participants were split into several groups. One received a placebo supplement with no boron included, while the other three received increasing doses of boron, ranging from 1.5 mg per day to 6 mg per day. After 15 days, the researchers found that the patients receiving the boron supplement fared better and had fewer signs of inflammation than those who did not.
Boron can help support cognitive function. Research published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives used a direct nutritional intervention to study the effects of boron intake on cognitive functioning (4).
The researcher behind the study compared two diets designed to be very low and very high in boron content across a series of three different studies. When subjects were on the low boron diet, they showed worse cognitive performance on a number of fronts: manual dexterity, attention, perception, and hand-eye coordination.
Even raw measures of brain power, like reaction time, were adversely affected by low boron intake. The same researcher also authored a review on a few additional studies which testified to the importance of boron to brain function (5).
When boron levels drop below a critical threshold, cognitive abilities are impaired across a wide range of tasks. Most interestingly, the subjects in these studies had borderline low boron levels when they came in, indicating that boron deficiency is quite common among the general population.
Boron plays an important role in bone strength. Boron appears to interact with various hormones, plus calcium levels in your body, to help strengthen your bones.
According to a review paper in the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, studies in both humans and animals demonstrate that a normal boron intake level supports bone growth, and a lack of adequate boron has deleterious effects on bone strength (6).
Another scientific article by nutrition researchers at the University of California Berkeley suggests that boron helps mediate the interactions between calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D, which are all essential for building bone density and interact in a complicated interplay (7). If boron levels are insufficient, this system does not work as well as it should, and bone health suffers. While boron is not the only component for building strong and healthy bones, the research indicates that it is a critical one, and should not be neglected.
Side effects
So far, no clinical studies have reported any adverse effects or side effects related to boron. The United States Institute on Medicine Panel on Micronutrients found no evidence for any adverse effects related to high boron intake, even at levels far beyond what's used in scientific research on boron supplementation (8).
Even so, the research on boron is fairly new, so it's best to stick to the established dose ranges. There is no evidence you'll face any risks for going beyond these, but there is also no evidence for any benefits either.
Recommended dose
The most comprehensive research on boron supplementation has examined dosages ranging from 1.5 to 6 mg per day. Your diet may naturally provide one or two mg of boron per day already—in the only studies on direct boron intake, that was the level of dietary boron prior to any dietary interventions.
So, you'll likely get the best results at between 2 and 3 mg of supplemental boron per day. Doses beyond that aren't necessary for most people. Stick to this recommended range unless you've got good reasons to go beyond it.
Boron has a wide range of applications, from supporting healthy brain function and cognition to keeping your testosterone levels high and your inflammation levels low.
It could be helpful for older men who struggle with low testosterone and "brain fog," as well as people looking for relief from arthritis or other inflammatory conditions.
There are no adverse effects known so far, and the optimal dose for most people looks to be 2 to 3 mg per day. That's the range of doses used in the scientific studies that have found the greatest benefits.
Taken at this level, boron could be an easy addition to your supplementation routine that has broad health benefits.
