"Statesmen" implys any person male or famale. It is the same as 'hu-man' or 'man-kind'; correct?
Again, thank you, brothers and sisters. Forgive me, a sinner, for being way too harsh and abrasive on that forum. Please, may I ask... pray also for our Serbian brothers, Orthodoxlurker and SouthSerb99, and for our Chinese brother SDCheung. I am very concerned about them; honestly, they frighten me and I really believe that they need a lot of spiritual help. Lord, have mercy on us all.
I don't like to diverge like this on the prayer forum, but I will address your concern quickly. If this gets too long, we can always split it.Although grammatically correct, since the women's movement of the 1960s English has shied away from words that are gender-specific, preferring for example "chair" rather than "chairman," "police officer" rather than "policeman." The terms "man" (meaning both men and women) and "mankind" have been almost completely replaced by "humanity." Unfortunately, there is no gender-neutral term for "statesman," hence Heorhij's use of both genders.

Does anyone remember that Eddie Murphy pretended to sing back in the 80's? Party All The Time? No, just me?
This is my first year "partying" with the Ultimate Blog Party (a virtual party of bloggers thrown by the ladies over at 5 Minutes for Mom), so you'll have to excuse me if I do this wrong. I tend to toot my own horn.
What is Bruises on the Frosting all about?
It's about a terribly large list of things. I'm a bit of a dilettante and write a little bit about a lot of things.
Mostly, I write about my life. I'm a mom to two terrific kiddos (Short Stack is 11 and Chuck is 17 mos), so that occupies the majority of my time. I'm engaged to a guy we call Chef…because he is a chef.
Yes, I'm pretty lucky. (He also runs a very successful website for tips and tricks on the Call of Duty video game, so if you or your SO are into that, you should check it out!)
I am a non-skating official for roller derby. Short explanation: this means sometimes I get to yell and blow a whistle while girls skate in a circle and hit each other, and sometimes I wear a pink shirt and write stuff down. One of these days, I will explain the long way what I do.
I bake. A lot. A LOT. I don't eat much of it (Mia Cupcake came from "mea culpa, btw), but I have a lot of very happy friends. And the girls at the coffee stand near my house love me.
Sometimes I do giveaways….and sometimes I do reviews. Mostly I just talk about myself.
I am in the process of a transformation to a healthier me. I'm exercising more, and I'm eating better and I quit smoking and soda and fast food. I'm doing a lot of it with the help of Mamavation….which brings me to my SUPER AWESOME giveaway!
I am in the finals to be a Mamavation Mom, and to be able to inspire other moms out there to make healthier changes for them and for their family. I need your help though.
Go here and vote for me (@miacupcake) to be the next Mamavation Mom BEFORE noon on Monday, April 4th, and then head here and enter my giveaway! Every vote counts….!
And because you made it this far….sometimes I post a video on the bottom that may or may not have something to do with the post. I'm random like that.
In this case, it's Party All The Time. As proof that Eddie Murphy did attempt singing, around the same time that his career was at its height, with Beverly Hills Cop 1-3.
You're welcome for that flashback 🙂

The Task Force on Intergenerational Partnership for Sustainability presents the results of a survey on the draft IUCN Programme, including recommendations on youth engagement and intergenerational partnership.
When some younger CEC members took a close look at the draft IUCN Programme for 2013-2016, they noticed that young people were largely absent. To fill this gap, a group of young professionals associated with the IUCN Commissions developed a survey that garnered responses from 257 participants from all regions and across the six IUCN Commissions.
The Task Force on Intergenerational Partnership for Sustainability (a cross-Commission group), is pleased to present this contribution to the current policy dialogue on the draft IUCN Programme. A summary of recommendations for each core and thematic area of the IUCN Programme is available in the survey report >>
Respondents, who varied in age from their 20s to 80s, called for examples of successful initiatives, tools and targets, as well as a role for strategic communication. They also called for references to justice, equity, indigenous peoples, energy efficiency and climate change adaptation, among many other suggestions.
Regarding youth, the synthesis report describes the following role: "The role of youth and intergenerational partnership should be recognized as essential for achieving IUCN's core programme areas of valuing and conserving biodiversity, and sharing nature's benefits fairly and equitably yet these are largely absent from the draft IUCN Programme. Youth have a great deal to offer in terms of understanding local contexts, transmitting innovative ideas through creative communication, familiarity with the most recent literature in the field, and contributing to policy development. The Programme should serve as a platform for youth engagement within and through the IUCN."
For more information about the activities of the newly-formed Task Force on Intergenerational Partnership for Sustainability and each Commission's young professionals group, please visit: http://intergenerationalpartnership.wikispaces.com/
The survey organizers with to thank all survey participants for offering their insightful inputs across the core and thematic programme areas, to Commission Chairs for their support in disseminating the survey and this report, and to all contributors and editors.
Editors and contributors:
Catie Burlando (CEESP), Alvin Chandra (CEC & CEM), Sarah Darymple (CEC & SSC), Lisa Marika Jokivirta (CEC), Bruno Monteferri (CEL), Grace Mwaura (CEC and Council), and Dominic Stucker (CEC)
With input and support from: Rod Abson (CEC), Frits Hesselink (CEC), Svetlana Kopylova (WCPA), Rebecca Koss (WCPA), and Anya Zavadskaya (WCPA)

by Stan FagerstromThe bass that came blasting up through the thick pad cover left a hole the size of a washtub.
"Dammit, Stan!" my guide snorted, "that's the third good fish you've missed in the last half hour. "Let's stick a trailer hook on that weedless spoon you're throwing."
I expected there would be some down time while the guide attached the trailer hook he wanted me to use. There wasn't. He had a trailer hook attached to my Johnson Silver Minnow in seconds.
"Now," he said as he handed the rod back to me, "let's see if we can't put one of those suckers in the boat instead of just blowing holes in the pads."
And that's the way it worked out. I nailed the next bass that smashed my spoon. It turned out that the trailer hook was the one that got the job done.
When the fishing was done that day I asked the guide where the heck he had found trailer hooks as easy to attach as the one he'd given me was. "It's one of the new trailer hooks Gamakatsu added to their line at least two years ago," he said. "Those guys are always adding something or other to make fishing easier. You'd be wise to get some of them yourself."
He didn't have to give me that advice. I'd already decided to get them when I saw how easy it was for him to attach one to my lure. I don't think there's ever been a trailer hook available that's as easy to attach as this one is.
These easy to use Gamakatsu trailer hooks are available in both black and red colors and a variety of sizes
Sometimes a trailer hook can make the difference in catching bass or going home skunked. That comment won't come as a surprise to anglers who've spent much time fishing the heavy cover of one kind or another in the best bass water all over the country.
What might come as news, if they've not already heard about it, is how much easier the nation's leading marketer of hooks has made use trailer hooks.
Having trouble hooking the bass that hit? Attaching one of these Gamakatsu trailer hooks to your lure can make an immediate difference
For some reason there are days when the fish are busting our baits but are just hard as heck to hook. You've probably had experiences like that in your own bass fishing.
I recall fishing my home lake once years ago. The lake had lots of lily pad cover. That pad cover was a favorite hangout for the lake's bass. One of my favorite lures for fishing this cover was a Johnson Silver Minnow with a pork frog trailer.
I'm an old guy now but I recall that particular morning like it took place the day before yesterday. Remembering it isn't because I caught a live well full of fish. The opposite is true. I remember it because at least 20 bass blew holes in the pad cover as they tried to get hold of my Silver Minnow.
Some of those bass did get hold of the lure, but the hook didn't get hold of them. I knew darn well a trailer hook would probably help. I didn't, unfortunately, have any with me.
You can bet I've not forgotten that experience. Be assured I'm not about to let it happen to me again. And now the Gamakatsu trailer hooks I'm talking about make rigging a lure with them easier than it has ever been.
I know I don't have to sell experienced bass anglers on Gamakatsu Hooks. As far as I'm concerned hooks just don't come any better and that's been true ever since these sticky-sharp fish-catchers first came on the scene.
Are you aware that Gamakatsu is now marketing a trailer hook that eliminates all that fooling around once associated with putting one of them on certain of your favorite lures? If you aren't you should be.
Note the illustrations that accompany this column. What Gamakatsu has done, you see, is to produce a series of trailer hooks that come with a plastic coating molded right over the hook eye. There's no more screwing around using surgical tubing or whatever else you might have employed in the past to keep a trailer hook in place.
Now you can simply select the size trailer hook of your choice. Once that's done, just run the hook of your lure on up through the plastic coating on the eye of the trailer hook and you're in business.
The last time I checked these new Gamakatsu hooks were being marketed in four sizes. These hooks, their official name is the "Trailer Hook SP, can be had in sizes #1, #1/0, #2/0 and #3/0.
If you're one of those who favor having a flash of red in the stuff you show the bass you're after, the new Gamakatsu trailer hooks also fill the bill in that regard. They are available in either red or black colors.
I was involved in some of the test fishing of Gamakatsu hooks before they were ever brought to market here in the United States. They impressed the heck out of me the first time I used them. They've been doing the same thing ever since. You can get more info on these hooks at www.gamakatsu.com.
If I don't wind up with bass in the boat when they're striking short now it won't be because I'm not using a trailer hook. The new Gamakatsu Trailer Hooks have a permanent spot in my tackle box.
I used a Gamakatsu trailer hook to nail this nice bass that grabbed my spinnerbait. I had missed several fish that had hit short before I remedied that situation by adding a trailer hook
It's there because I know there will be times, many of them, I'll want one of those hooks riding along behind the spinnerbait, buzzbait or whatever other single hooked lure I'm throwing. I also know that whenever that happens it won't take more than 30 seconds to add a trailer to whatever I'm throwing.
These Gamakatsu trailer hooks are first class time savers. Whenever you save time when you're on the water it usually helps put more fish in the boat. Those new trailer hooks have done that for me. Chances are you good they'll do the same for you.

Now that it is December, the temperature is dropping and we are starting to lose that perpetual summer feeling. Why not spend your holiday somewhere where the sun is still out and the beaches are paradise even during the winter? It seems like the celebrities have it right by heading for warmer weather during the holidays, and while we all may not have a private yacht or jet to get us there, we can still enjoy a nice sunny holiday at one of these top five sexy bikini destinations!
This first bikini destination tops my personal list of favorite places to head during the winter! Cabo San Lucas in Baja California, Mexico is also a celebrity favorite, when it comes to getting away for a little vacation. Cabo has it's share of fun activities like snorkeling and parasailing, but if you want to get a little R&R after the holiday hustle and bustle then you will love all of the amazing spas and tranquil resorts. The Guilty Pleasure Bikini is just the suit to pack for your trip to Cabo, with a bright coral color and some fun gold chain detail, this sexy bikini is perfect for a beach fiesta or just sipping margaritas by the pool!
If you are really looking for the ultimate celebrity vacation spot this holiday, then look no further than St. Barts in the French Caribbean. The gorgeous beaches and blue water are enough to make me want to head to this tropical island, but St. Barts is also known for it's luxury accommodations. If you are going to head to this sexy bikini destination, then you will want to look the part in your designer swimwear. Grab the Rich Girl White Bikini, with gold and rhinestone hardware, this sexy white bikini will have you looking like a celeb for sure!
Another perfect place to go if you are looking for warmer weather is Western Australia. Their summer is in full swing right now, so there won't be any shortage of sun and the snorkeling in this area is as good as it gets! When picking your sexy luxury swimwear for a trip down under, you should definitely opt for something classic and cute like the Irresistible Bikini. The Aussies have a very laid back, but fun style so you will fit right in with this sexy swimsuit.
Probably one of the sexiest bikini destinations you can choose this holiday has to be Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. They don't call it a brazilian cut for nothing! The bikinis here are always sexy and fun, but especially with carnival happening through February. The only choice for the perfect Rio swimsuit is the Red Hot Bikini, with rhinestone hardware and red that pops, you will stand out in the huge carnival crowd.
We couldn't leave out the gorgeous beaches of Barbados on a list of sexy bikini destinations. It is no secret where one of our favorite celebs, Rihanna is from and how lucky is she? Barbados has it all with gorgeous white sand beaches, clear water and a fun and festive environment. The perfect place to explore or just get some sun on the sand. We always see Rihanna in fun monokinis when she visits Barbados, so why not follow in her footsteps with the Deja Vu Monokini? This sexy suit is both fun and sexy with some definite celebrity style.

Evansville 2013by Brandon Roop '06 • October 7, 2013 Share:
On Sunday October 6th, from 1 - 3pm, 18 volunteers showed up at the Ronald McDonald house of Evansville eager to assist. We were stationed inside and out and participated in a number of activities ranging from picking weeds, to trimming bushes, scrubbing toilets, sweeping, vacuuming, and cooking chili. There were a number of families staying at the RMH so it also afforded us a good opportunity to fellowship and love on those families, as well as the RMH regular volunteers. Additionally, there were several individuals who wanted to help but couldn't be there, so they donated much desired paper & cleaning products.
We had a number of former, current, and future Wabash students/alumni, as well as family and friends join in on the event. I want to thank everyone who came out and made the day a success. Those in attendance were the Roop family (Brandon '06, Leah, Rick, Laura, & Lauren), David Hayhurst '83, Neal Hayhurst '21, Erin Harvey, Courtney Seitz, Kim Fellton (son class of 2015), Lisa Dunkel (son class of 2015), Mike Allen, Isaac Allen, Whitney Weir, Blake Frazier, Grant Gerling '83, Brooke Kline, & Garrett Kline.

They say two things are guaranteed in life: death and taxes. I would like to add a third — aging.
We age from the moment we are born until the moment we draw our last breath. We all experience this natural life process; some of us just experience it for a shorter time than others.
Today, our longer life spans are creating challenges and opportunities for governments, industries and businesses, as well as for individuals and families. This revolution finds us scrambling to address these challenges and opportunities as we enter unknown territory.
Among these challenges is the aging population's continual fixation on staying young and on top of its game. This desire to discover the fountain of youth has spawned numerous billion-dollar industries. Whether it's Viagra, nutraceuticals or tummy tucks, these markets are being driven by aging Boomers who want solutions and want them now. Just look at celebrity Boomers Randy Jackson of American Idol and Al Roker of NBC's Today Show, who both had gastric bypass surgery. After a lot of nip and a little tuck, they are thin again. But these celebrities took a major risk when undergoing the operation — three in 200 people die after weight loss surgery.
The Hunt Is On
Plastic surgery also has gone mainstream. It is now a part of several reality makeover shows and at least one fictional series. In less than an hour, the country can see a whole new person emerge from under bandages. For those less inclined to be cut, cosmetic companies offer what they claim are solutions for wrinkles, age spots and cellulite.
Of course, let's not forget that recent medical breakthrough: the World's First Anti-Aging Pill. The new pill's dramatic press release says the "promising discovery has been proven to quickly reverse the aging process by replenishing the body's own production of youth hormone to normal 25-year-old levels." Hard to believe, I know, but let's try to imagine what such a product could mean.
If we can lose weight by having surgery and build muscle by taking a pill, why spend time sweating off those pounds and building that noteworthy physique? If we can take "elixirs of life" that promise to recapture the vitality of youth, why get out of bed to walk or run on a dark, cold morning in winter? These are good questions to ask, but the fact is all the surgeries, pills and elixirs have a downside, whether their claims are true or false. About 40 percent of Americans ages 50 and older believe anti-aging products are basically "hogwash," while another 36 percent are "curious, but skeptical." Although more than 20 percent of people in this age group say these products can "work sometimes," just 3 percent say they like them a lot.
To Age or Not to Age
As we hear stories about increasing numbers of Boomers and older adults having their stomachs stapled or taking expensive "remedies," we must recognize that most of these new industries focus on physical beauty rather than on internal health. Think about it. We can have a great exterior but still develop heart disease, hypertension, osteoporosis, diabetes and depression.
What kind of message is this focus on outward beauty sending to our children, whom most parents would agree should be taught that what's really important is on the inside? That message is also one we need to share with our members, some of whom may be too focused on the physical benefits of exercising. Exercising might lead them to a nicer physique, but more importantly, it can lead them to a healthier body. By making better lifestyle choices, eating properly and exercising, we can prevent, control or retard much of the heart disease, hypertension and diabetes that we see. Yes, physicians can prescribe pills to treat these health issues, but we can address them just as well — if not better — and for much less money with exercise, proper nutrition and lifestyle modifications.
Expanding the Message
The reality is, we don't live in a perfect world. And the pursuit of the perfect exterior, whether young or old, while neglecting the perfect interior, could have a major impact on the health of aging Boomers. Fitness professionals offer individuals the ability to lead a high-quality life by shifting their focus to the inside. If we are successful in doing this, we grow closer to attaining our goal of helping these individuals achieve their ideal self, both inside and out. By broadening the focus to include the internal, we can help our members — and our businesses — enjoy better health.

Real-World Review
2014 Toyota Corolla LE Eco: Real World Review
The all-new 2014 Toyota Corolla is officially on the road, and we've had our fair share of time in the driver's seat. After spending some time driving a sporty Corolla S, we recently had the opportunity to spend a few days testing out a more frugal Corolla LE, the model just above the base-level Corolla L. Here's what we discovered.
Base Model Basics
Several of our staffers admitted they were surprised at just how basic the Corolla LE looks and feels. The biggest problem might be that we drove the Corolla S first. While only $700 separates the two cars before you add options, that entire amount is made up in appearance items -- and it shows. Everyone who drove both cars commented on how the Corolla S looked far more sporty and upscale than the LE. Items such as the S model's dark alloy wheels and aggressive front bumper especially stood out.
A few drivers felt the Corolla's overly basic look carried over to its interior. Compared to the cabin of our 2013 Dodge Dart SXT long-term test car, the Corolla certainly didn't include as many amenities, or as many high-quality materials. However, we felt that the Corolla had an advantage over our recently departed 2012 Subaru Impreza long-term car. In other words, the sedan's interior quality isn't class-leading, but it's certainly acceptable.
On the Road
Behind the wheel, the Corolla's driving dynamics surprised us in a good way. While it's clearly not the driver's car that its Mazda3 rival is, several of our staffers felt the sedan's steering was nicely weighted, and the engine was smooth and quiet, while the suspension did a good job soaking up even large bumps. We also appreciated the Corolla's acceleration. No, it wasn't lightning quick, but it was more than adequate considering we were testing the green-focused Eco powertrain.
Eco models, by the way, are the most powerful members of the Corolla family -- a fact that confused some of our staff members. They boast 140 horsepower, while other Corolla models have just 132. The difference isn't noticeable, but the fuel economy is: The Eco returns up to 30 miles per gallon in the city and 42 mpg on the highway, compared to 29 mpg city/37 mpg hwy for most other Corolla models.
But if you're in a 2014 Corolla with friends or family, it's the backseat passengers -- not the driver -- who will be the happiest. Everyone who spent time in the car commented on its huge back seat, a feature that's unusual in the compact sedan class. Best of all, it's good in all dimensions: headroom, legroom and hip room.
Easy to Use
For some drivers, the Corolla LE's lack of cutting-edge features and amenities is a good thing. Our test car didn't have upscale items such as navigation or futuristic safety features such as a lane departure warning system or blind spot monitoring. But that made the car easy to learn. And each of our drivers commented on the simplicity of the sedan's cabin layout and its Entune audio system. The dashboard design especially garnered high praise, as the no-nonsense approach to displaying the controls means that everything is clearly marked and exactly where you'd expect it.
Overall Impressions
Each of us came away from our experience with the 2014 Toyota Corolla LE feeling the same way: It's a great car for drivers with basic needs. If you want something with a little more flair, Toyota has that too in the Corolla S. And if you want upscale equipment, there's the Corolla XLE. We'd probably spring for one of the car's other trims, but if you're looking to get from point A to point B without any hassle, there's no harm in choosing a Corolla LE.

Dick and Sandra Tunnell are accustomed to the damage and heartache that comes from time to time with farming at 5 feet above sea level. But Hurricane Isabel "was certainly the worst we've seen."
Isabel brought surges of salt water 5-feet high in the Tunnell's yard and left scorched crops in the field.
Five days after the storm, the Tunnells and many of their neighbors in Hyde County, N.C., were without power, working to salvage their flooded homes, operating on generators that kept food from spoiling and a small fan running while they wondered about damage the salt water caused to their cropland.
Hurricane Isabel tore the Outer Banks to tatters, and continued across the Pamlico and Albemarle sounds in North Carolina before moving on to damage Virginia. Hyde County sits on the mainland across from the Outer Banks.
Tunnell had fall vegetable crops in the field, some ready for harvest when Isabel came calling.
"Based on what I've seen, the fall crop is a complete loss," the 50-year-old farmer and former president of the North Carolina Soybean Association says. Salt water caused cotton — which was already two to three weeks behind schedule — to drop leaves and it completely covered the soybeans.
As soon as the land dries out, he'll begin soil testing to determine just how deep the salt penetrated into the ground. But Tunnell worries more about the blow to the already-depressed economy of rural eastern North Carolina.
The Tunnells were holed up across the street at the house where he was raised when the Category 2 hurricane hit. Initially, 110 mph winds came blowing from the northeast.
Sandra Tunnell tells it best:
"Prior to the eye coming over, we got more than 100 mph wind gusts with no surge or rain. Once the eye passed over at 2:30, we were feeling pretty good, like maybe we had escaped the worst of it, and then we got a call from neighbors. Dick was outside in the yard.
'Do what you can, there's 5-feet of water downtown and it's coming your way,' Sandra remembers her neighbor saying. "I said, 'We must have heard you wrong because it has hardly rained.' They said, 'No, you didn't hear us wrong. There's 5 feet of water headed your way.'
"In 30 minutes we watched it come up this town ditch and take over the yard," Sandra recalled a week after the storm hit, talking over a crew of workers tearing up water-soaked joists underneath the house. They were treating everything with Clorox to hold down mold.
At 4:30 on Thursday, Sept. 18, the surf was still surging. LP tanks floated by and "a baby deer swam by our house," Sandra says.
Adds Dick: "After the lull, the wind shifted to the southeast, which blew water into our farms here. We needed a western wind to take it back out, but it never really went to a westerly or northwesterly wind, so the water just kept coming."
Wind knocked down a big tree in the front and took a toll on the pecan trees, but the real damage came from the salt water surge. Mounds of cornstalks and debris from damaged houses lined the roads.
"We watched the salt water come up in Hurricane Floyd, but it was like heavy rain and it started to recede almost as fast as it got here," Sandra says. "This time, it stayed. When we went to bed, it had only receded down to the bottom steps of the house."
After the storm, Dick worked to save corn as salt water surged above the floor of the grain bins. "We worked hard all day to see if we could save the corn," Dick says, his eyes heavy with exhaustion more than a week into the cleanup.
In seven of the last eight years, Tunnell has seen salt water rush over his land. He had just about worked the salt out of the land from the last storm when this one hit. "When salt comes on our land, it gets tied up in the organic matter and it kills, and restricts the plants' ability to take up nutrients."
With this in mind, Tunnell rotates the crops among his fields to manage the salinity in the soils after a storm. "There are no miracle crops to rid the soil of salt in one year. You can apply gypsum, but you've got to have rain to wash it through."
Cotton handles salinity better than the other crops, but a minimal five to eight inches of rain ahead of the storm wasn't enough to keep it from defoliating an already-late cotton crop.
Tunnell had 475 acres of fresh market snap beans, most of the acreage ready for harvest over the next several weeks, when the hurricane hit. Tunnell let the beans sit in the field the day of the storm, despite the impending hurricane. Snap beans must be cooled after harvest. Without power, Tunnell would lose the beans anyway. Salt water had the same effect on the snap beans as it would have had on a slug. "I knew the crop was gone," Tunnell says. "I've been through this several times." Cabbage, squash, eggplant and cucumber acreage was also devastated. Crop insurance isn't available for most of those vegetable crops. He also grows 200 acres of soybeans and 250 acres of cotton.
"The fall vegetable crop is a complete loss," Tunnell told North Carolina Interim Ag Commissioner Britt Cobb when he visited the Tunnell farm and the area at the first of the week. North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley also toured the area and promised recovery assistance.
"It's going to take some cost-sharing help, soil sampling and working with the FSA office," Tunnell says. "We're going to need some type of help between low-interest loans and some grant money. It's going to be hard."
Hyde County has 5,000 residents. This is a farming and a fishing village. Most farmers and fishermen were still recovering from the hurricanes in 1999.
"Yeah, my main concern is providing for my family," Tunnell says, "but rural America is already beat up.
"In 2003, we had to replant corn, soybeans and cotton twice in this area," Tunnell says. "Most of our row crops are off in yield. It seems like we have a disaster every year."
Tunnell believes there will need to be tools in place to farm again next year. "We need a disaster bill in a time frame as quickly as possible. And we farmers need to take advantage of any programs that are offered to us."
Tunnell is chairman of the Hyde County Board of Education. The school system has 700 students in grades K-12. "You have to be concerned with the tax base, the affordability of education and the services the county has to provide."
He wonders about the future of the area. A long-overdue dike project had just started a new phase to stop the storm surge. "The dike is not a cure for six or seven-foot surge, but it's better than nothing."
Sitting in his farm office after the hurricane, Tunnell shows the strain of an exhausted man. He comes from strong stock. His father, Gilbert Tunnell, was a farmer and a leader in the community. Tunnell's father passed away when he was 16. His mother, with the help of neighbors, picked up the reins and carried on. Tunnell returned to the farm after graduating from North Carolina State. He and Sandra have been married for 28 years and have two children. His son, David, is a student at N.C. State. His daughter, Jamie, works on nearby Ocracoke Island. The farm is now in its third generation.
"No matter how strong you think you may be, the mental strain keeps wearing on you," Dick Tunnell says.
"We're praying for strength and good health right now," Sandra Tunnell says. "Even though we had crop losses and land losses, we can come back. There are those that won't be able to come back."
"Everybody's tested. It's another test of our faith and we intend to survive," Dick Tunnell says.

January: Camp of Opportunity
When U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann addressed the players for the first time at the start of this camp, the message was clear: we are here to get ready for the World Cup qualifier on Feb. 6 in Honduras, and every player in the room has a shot at making the roster.
Along with this huge carrot, the January camps have always been about opportunity: for veteran players to demonstrate their progress and for new faces to have a chance to shine following an extended look in front of the National Team coaching staff. It's a three-week showcase that offers the prospect of a future role in international football.
"This is a very important year with World Cup qualifying, the Gold Cup and U.S. Soccer's 100th anniversary, and to have a possibility to be a part of that is exciting," said Houston Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall. "Every one of us has an opportunity to be on the roster and establish themselves in the team. It's an honor to be here, and I'm looking forward to the competition."
The history of the January camp tells many tales of players who snatched this opportunity and made a name for themselves. In 2002, Pablo Mastroeni entered the January camp having not appeared in a single World Cup qualifier in the campaign to reach Korea/Japan. Five months later, he started against Portugal in the opening game of the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
More recently, last year's January camp saw the introduction of Sporting Kansas City midfielder Graham Zusi to the National Team fold, as well as the return of Geoff Cameron, who entered 2012 with only one cap to his credit. Both players earned starts in the consecutive 1-0 wins against Venezuela and Panama, with Zusi striking home the game-winner in Panama City. By year's end, Cameron had collected 10 appearances and the second-most minutes of any field player on the team, while Zusi played in six games that included starts in the final three World Cup qualifiers in the semifinal round in which the United States posted a perfect 3-0-0 record.
For others like Kyle Beckerman, who is now participating in his sixth January camp, he not only continues to establish himself as part of Klinsmann's core group, but also serves as a role model for the next generation.
"You expect the guys who have been here before, like Kyle, to pass on their experience as quickly as possible to the next group," said Klinsmann. "They become your right hand, your communicators and your connectors."Beckerman welcomes the responsibility, and sees these three weeks as a chance to hit the ground running.
"I look at the January camps as a chance to be the first players seen in the new year, so in that sense you have a head start," says the hard-working center midfielder. "I've been in these camps at different stages of my career, and now as an older guy you take on more responsibility. You make sure that everybody is getting ready and doing the right things on and off the field. It doesn't matter of it's a friendly or a World Cup qualifier. It's important to our fans, and the younger players need to understand that every national team game is big."
The coach thinks as many as six to nine players from this group could make the flight to San Pedro Sula next month as part of the first World Cup Qualifying roster in 2013. Ultimately, the aspiring internationals hope to establish themselves as future contributors on a team building towards 2014 in Brazil.
"I think there will be another couple guys who emerge from this roster and hopefully make our National Team environment even stronger. We hope with the January camp that the players understand that if they really grow, become personalities and take their lives and careers in their own hands, they can make the jump like Graham or Geoff or others before. We hope that will be the case in this camp, as well."

Republicans offer opportunity for change
By Matt Keelen and Bud DeFlaviis, Keelen Group - 10/03/12
In 2008, then-Senator Barak Obama ran as a self-proclaimed candidate of change. A mantra of 'hope' and promise of fresh leadership in Washington was understandably appealing for voters hungry for a new direction. His inspiring words gave Americans reason to believe that a new political era was about to emerge based on sober analysis and mutual cooperation.
Sadly, the change never came. Out of the gate, Mr. Obama approved a stimulus bill written by Congressional Democratic leaders that lacked coherent focus and bipartisan support. He then signed into law a massive healthcare reform cobbled together behind closed doors that was ironically named the 'Affordable Care Act'. His attempt to mend foreign relationships has strained our dealings with Russia, Poland and Israel. All the while, his administration takes credit for new domestic oil production and free trade agreements he played no part in brokering.
Obama skeptics, who were hoping for some level of bipartisan cooperation, were vindicated after reports show he is unwilling or unable to work with Republicans. A serious leader would not wait more than 18 months to schedule a one-on-one meeting with the Senate Minority leader or would have trouble finding a cell phone number to reach the Speaker of the House during the high-stakes debt ceiling negations.
With the fall election season in full swing, our president, who is leader of his party, is now asking for more likeminded allies in Congress, and another term based entirely on uninspiring tweak of the status quo. Whether it is the economy, our debt and deficit, entitlement reform, tax and immigration reform, energy, or the role of the federal government, the president has failed to offer fresh thinking or a positive vision for the future. Even the ordinarily supportive Washington Post labeled his second term agenda plan as 'hazy'.
Compare this disappointment to his Republican opponents Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. With a five-point plan in hand and a record of governing, working across party lines and solving problems, the two share a commitment to address our most serious problems.
The heart of their campaign is focused squarely on the current fiscal crisis with which we are faced. They are aware that without swift, decisive action, our country will face continued economic malaise and a catastrophic end to our most precious social safety-net programs.
To support the Romney/Ryan reform agenda, a host of exciting candidates and lawmakers are ready, willing and able to make the changes that are needed.
In the Senate, Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Rob Portman (R-Ohio), Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) and candidate Josh Mandel (R-Ohio) are committed to bringing a renewed sense of purpose to a do-nothing chamber that has not been able to bring a budget to the floor in more than three years.
Principled legislators and candidates in the House such as Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Ill.), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.), and Mia Love (R-Utah) understand the hard choices our country faces and are willing to voice the truth to their constituents about the tough decisions that need to be made.
In state capitals across the country, a charismatic group of governors are implementing the kind of commonsense reforms needed to promote a turnaround and positively impact local economies. States that have embraced true reform are beginning to balance their budgets and see the unemployed rejoin the workforce – think Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.
A nationwide recovery requires the implementation of a pro-growth agenda led by leaders who understand that even though government cannot create wealth, it can impede its creation. It also requires leaders who have a history of accomplishment, are willing to level with the American people, and can make difficult decisions.
Former Democratic Governor Mario Cuomo from New York famously said that candidates for public office should 'campaign in poetry but govern in prose'. The Obama administration understood the first part of this dictum, but failed on the second. We still have the ability to realize a better future, but first, we need serious candidates who embrace change and eschew rhetoric in favor of action.
Keelen is founder and president of the Keelen Group, a full service lobbying firm located in Washington D.C. DeFlaviis serves as the organization's account manager and communications director.

10 Questions for Pastors' Wives: Mae Milton
1. What do you think is your most important responsibility as a pastor's wife?
The most important responsibility as a pastor's wife is to be my husband's chief supporter. To make our home a place of respite for him, a place where he can come and leave all the pressures of the pastorate behind. There are practical ways to do this.
2. Is there anything that you think is not part of your role that others may assume is?
Others may assume that they get a "two for one" deal. That is you will teach a Bible study, play the piano, be in the choir, teach the children, lead the women's group. etc... But, none of that may be your role. You are your husband's wife and if you have children, a mother. You don't have to do any of those things. You may be gifted in an area and enjoy doing certain things, but you are a wife and mother first to your family. Do what you enjoy and are good doing. I recommend not being the leader of any group. This sometimes sets you up for unnecessary criticism. In church planting, this may be necessary in the beginning, however.
3. What boundaries have you established in order to protect your marriage and family life?
Protecting your husband's day off is very important. You may have to leave the house on those days or turning the phone to OFF..and not answering for any reason. Some pastors even have a separate line that they give out to only family and close friends to call. Also, people may try to use you to get their message to your husband. Sometimes you can listen and not carry it on to him. Or, you can kindly tell them if they have a suggestion they call the office to make an appointment with him to discuss the matter. That your home is so busy that you don't want to be responsible for church matters. Also, if they call you up trying the same thing, just refer them to the office. Most of the times I never told my husband.
4. How do you apply Galatians 6:2 ("Carry each other's burdens") when facing difficulties or frustrations in ministry?
If you have a friend in the ministry, you can call them to pray. Even family can pray when difficulties arise.
5. Where do you and your husband find your own pastoral care?
If there are other pastors on staff, you usually have someone with which to talk. Sometimes we have had other pastors in other churches to go talk with. Who have been able to pray with us and for us.
6. How do you deal with criticism of you or your husband?
This is very difficult. Everyone, I think, deals with criticism differently. I personally try to pray through it. If I know I have to see that person, I try to avoid them until I have gotten calmed down, if I am really upset. I usually act as if I know nothing is going on. Just keep smiling. If someone would ask me if I had heard this, that or the other, I would usually smile as say I have no idea what is going on. Most of the time, that is the truth. Or if there is some criticism of myself, I would just say "I will take it to the Lord and see if there is some merit to it and will make adjustment if necessary. Thanks."
7. What is the greatest blessing and what the greatest burden of being a pastor's wife?
People are the greatest blessing. Instant friends, people who love you, people to take care, and support you. They become your family. The greatest burden are also people as some will hurt you, talk about you, use you, take advantage of you and let you down.
9. What one piece of advice would you pass on to a new pastor's wife?
Be yourself. If you love to cook, feed people in your home. If you love children, work with them. Old people, work with them. Use the gifts the Lord has given you. But, your most important mission is to take care of your husband, because if you don't take care of him, he won't be able to take care of his flock.
10. How can the other women in a congregation best support you practically and in prayer?
I think the other women in the church can help you by being your friend. Praying that you would be the kind of wife your husband needs you to be.

Gloria, One with a Shepherd by Mary Somerville is helpful. I'm currently reading through it with a group of seminary wives and using the study that Connie Dever wrote to go along with it which is excellent (and extremely comprehensive!). You can find the study at the nine marks website here: http://www.9marks.org/CC/article/0,,PTID314526|CHID598014|CIID2427244,00.html

The University of Montana Western is the only public college in the country to offer a block scheduling program. We call this innovative program Experience One (X1). Here's how it works. Students take one class at a time, three hours each day for 18 days before moving on to the next class. In between, they enjoy a four day break to relax and recharge. Then the students move on to the next class. Taking four classes or "blocks" during the semester, students earn the same amount of credit they'd earn under traditional multi-class systems.
Montana Western students learn by performing real-world work in a mentorship environment. Practical, hands-on learning ensures students truly understand what they learn and are fully prepared for graduate school and professional work beyond our campus.
Concentrate on one class at a time and get more out of your education. By giving one class your total focus, you can fully immerse yourself in a subject and retain more of what you learn.
Graduates emerge from this campus with an impressive portfolio of actual experience, which gives them an edge in entering graduate school and highly competitive job markets. With a pulse on their respective fields, UMW professors are committed to student success.
There is no falling through the cracks at Montana Western. You will take an active role in your education and by working closely with professors and fellow students, you will be challenged and motivated to excel.
X1 allows students to break free from the memorize-and-regurgitate education model. Close collaboration with peers, professors, professionals and the community make a complete learning experience.
Forget juggling six different schedules at a time. Experience One simplifies scheduling giving you ample time for in-depth study, work and leisure. Less stress means more energy spent on your education and college experience.
Montana Western faculty are committed to providing students with graduate-level research opportunities at the undergraduate level. Experience One allows students to fully delve into research projects without compromising other academic work.
With no other classes to get in the way, X1 leaves the door to international travel wide open for Montana Western students. Our active international programs have sent students to Greece, Italy, Ireland, Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands, Germany and the Czech Republic.
Your professors and fellow students will be your close mentors, peers and collaborators. Professors will know your name and because they only teach one class at a time, will have your full attention. As a student at Montana Western, you will be part of a more effective and fulfilling learning environment.
UMW grad Justinn Marshall was accepted into the University of Washington's regional medical education program.
Marcus Williams came to Montana Western to play football and major in business administration.
Recent Montana Western graduate Taeler Rodriguez has been accepted to the University of Denver's graduate program.
Coming to Montana Western was part of fulfilling a childhood dream of becoming a doctor for Lindsey Densmore.
Kolby Brown is a literature major at the University of Montana Western.
