Sonshine is due for Primary school next year. How do i feel about that?
Dreadful. Reluctant. Heart broken.
It pains me to think that he is going to spend the next 15 years in prison, i mean, school. Everyone in Singapore knows schools here are not the happiest place to be. In fact, it is probably one of the most stressful, joy killer, childhood damaging place to be. I feel guilty and utterly sorry that he has to go through our educational system this way.
Despite my reluctance, i am glad for two things:
1) I made the point to prepare sonshine for primary school work.
Sonshine's personality is such that he crumbles under pressure and stress. When that happens, his thought process will go haywire and all that he knows will fly straight out of the window in a flash! He gets very upset with himself if he fails to complete perfectly even if it is the smallest of task like putting on his socks. So i am certain, if he goes to school realising he is far from his peers, he would crash into pieces and it would be quite hard to piece him back up. And his mother is also the panicky sort. If he panics, i would panic and you all can say goodbye to our entire household!
Also, i am glad that i can put off tuition for him for at least 2 more years. That will save him from additional work (from tuition), give him more time to play, sleep and just relax. Well, at least that is my plan that i hope to work out.
2) The choice of our school
By the accounts of other parents whose kids are already in my almar mater (which is the school sonshine is going), it looks like school work is pretty manageable, maybe even easy breezy for the first 2 years at least. I was even told that this school's work is even easier than assesment books. YAHOOOOOO!! My niece who is in Primary 2 comes home everyday and tells me there is no homework. Okay, that is because she is able to complete them all even before she reaches home. But that means it is quite easy isn't it?
Again, sonshine is the sort who thrives in a relax environment. The more chilled it is, the better for him. So i am really glad that the school environment suits his learning style and needs.
However, i am warily aware that in primary 3, things will take a sharp turn. That is where my stress level will go up. But, we'll take that as it comes.
On another note, i personally know some mothers who tell me that their pre-schoolers are struggling with their work. I sympathise with them. However, it baffles me why despite that, they are still insistent about sending their kids to the 'top', SAP schools. Why do that to the child? If its the parents' Alma mater or distance is the issue, then, that i can understand. But otherwise?
And then there are the other group of parents who decides to send their kids to the top school but still opt to take the 'relax, chill out' attitude. Do they really know what they are doing to their child? I know such parents claim they don't really care for the grades and it is okay that their child scores borderline grades. That aside, what about the child's self esteem? Our school system can be very unforgiving and cruel to students who score below the mark. I can assure you that the school, teachers, friends, relatives will not hesitate to tell the child that he/she is a 'poor student'. Even if the parents say 'it is okay' but it is the child who has to battle the system all by him/herself each day at school. Everyday, somebody or something (simple things like reward stickers for good work) will remind him/her that 'he/she isn't very good'. Unless you are very certain that your young child's confidence and self esteem are strong enough to stand against the pressures, then, please don't do this to your child. Our education system is not one to 'play' with. It is no longer just about the grades, it impacts their self esteem and confidence. If they get damaged, they may bring this negative self worth into their adulthood, that's not good.
I am not saying that parents should expect fantastic grades from their children and send them for countless tuition to prepare their child. What i am saying is, make sure your child is comfortable academically enough to handle the pressures of primary school. Start them as early as possible. Sure, it is a 'kiasu' (trying to be ahead of everyone) syndrome but i would rather be labelled as that than to risk my child's self esteem, won't you? I am not confident that my child's self worth will still be intact after going through our education system. I think our education system has come to a point where being 'bo chap' (being care less) is damaging to our children's emotional being. So, as a parent, i want to do what i can to protect my children's self esteem. Sadly, one obvious way is to stay ahead of the game. The other, of course, is to choose the right school for your kids that suit their personalities, abilities and learning style. Don't blindly choose one just because it promises over the top grades. So even if it is your Alma mater but if the school expectation is too much for your kid, then please consider some other school where your child will be happier.
We are all frustrated with our education system. But it is something we cannot overturn in a night. So meanwhile, we have to wise up and try to do what we can and not make silly decisions like sending them to schools that don't suit our child's learning style or choose to be 'bo chap'. I apologise if i offend any parent here. Just my honest opinion.


text: So after seeing all the "madness" with the EVO launch, does anyone think that there is going to be issues with the network when all these 4G phones come on line Friday and Saturday? This reminds me a bit of the iPhone 3.0 release and all the issues that people had. I am apprehensive about Sprint's ability to handle all the new "business". Any opinions?

Cruise into the past
At last Friday's "Retro Cruise In," sponsored by the Business Association of Margaretville, dozens of owners rolled into the village to put their pride and joy vehicles on display for visitors. I'm not sure of the vintage of all the cars and trucks, but I recognized pretty much all of them from "younger days." Or, maybe from postcards or something.

The authors of this book are fascinated by tabular layouts and use them with the flimsiest of excuses. A table on page three represents the elements and time allocations of the literacy hour - information you would need to have spent 18 months in the outback not to be familiar with already.
A significant proportion of this book is written in Martian-style observations. A paragraph about guided reading says: "The children then read the text to themselves while the teacher remains with the group, listening, watching and intervening where necessary." Cue for Martian giggling.
Set among such redundant observations, numbered lists, tables and uncaptioned black-and-white photographs, the key issues identified in the book's opening section are never properly addressed. Boys' reading is given a couple of columns, phonics even less space. The statement "segmen-ting speech at the level of phonemes is notoriously difficult for children to do" is surely worth further elaboration.
There is some useful advice about implementing the literacy hour, but the photocopiable planning sheets at the back com-pound the book's lack of focus.

Saint Dominic
Genesis 17:1-7,15-16
Sarai is childless and advanced in years; she has not provided Abram with an heir. While his line can continue through Ishmael, he would much prefer that a son born of his wife be his heir.
Romans 4:13-25
Earlier in this epistle, Paul has argued that through the gospel, it is faith that brings humankind into harmony with God, not adherence to Mosaic law. Now he takes Abraham as an example.
Mark 8:31-38
Outside Israel, visiting the villages around Caesarea Philippi, Jesus has asked his disciples who they believe him to be. Peter has identified him as the Messiah, the one expected to come at the end of the era.
Mark 9:2-9
Jesus has foretold his death and resurrection, and that God's kingdom will begin soon. Peter has recognized that he is the Messiah, the one expected to come to usher in the Kingdom at the end of the era.

In addition to Little Jake and the Soul Searchers, the stage will be filled with local all-stars, including Sheba the Mississippi Queen, Reverend Billy C. Wirtz, and Rondo and the Mojo Downs Band.
Little Jake of Little Jake and Soul Searchers knows Ocala well.
As a kid touring the famed Chitlin' Circuit, Jake Mitchell would open for soul's biggest stars when the circuit stopped at Ocala's Club Bali in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
"I played at Club Bali years ago. Oh, it was beautiful. I played there with Jackie Wilson, B.B. King, James Brown, The Midnighters," said Mitchell, who is now 70-something and living in Gainesville. "I was pretty big back in those days. I was just a young buck coming up."
Well, the young buck will be back in Ocala Friday night, headlining the Brick City Blues Festival. Dubbed Soulsville USA, this year's festival will be a multi-act concert that traces the history of soul music, particularly its path through this region.
The annual concert packs the Reilly Arts Center, raises money for Ocala's Feed The Need outreach and educates the dancing masses about the music that has them on their feet. Last year, it was a journey through the Chitlin Circuit. This year, the festival revisits the Chitlin' Circuit with an emphasis soul.
In addition to Little Jake and the Soul Searchers, the stage will be filled with local all-stars, including blues singer Sheba the Mississippi Queen, Reverend Billy C. Wirtz, and Rondo and the Mojo Downs Band (fronted by community activist, restaurateur and Feed The Need founder Ron "Rondo" Fernandez).
As much a music historian as he is a piano-pounding musician, Wirtz will provide the concert's narrative, including soul's reach into Ocala.
Ocala was on the Chitlin' Circuit, a string of venues in segregated American cities that hosted black musicians. African American performers would pass through the region en route to larger venues, stopping to perform at Gainesville's Cotton Club (still standing) and Ocala's Club Bali (no longer standing).
Wirtz has a particular affinity for blues and soul. Soul, Wirtz contends, bridged races more than political policy ever did.
"Soul music came out during a time when there was a tremendous amount of racial polarization in this country, especially in the South," Wirtz said. "The real hardcore Southern soul we'll be featuring this weekend comes from Memphis and Muscle Shoals, Alabama."
It found its way onto high-wattage radio stations and, subsequently, into the ears of white kids who were not supposed to be listening to it.
"They grabbed hold of it, and, and boy, I'll tell you, they would be at all the black shows," Mitchell recalled. "They would be a part of the crowd."
Soul's power, Mitchell contends, stems from its origins: "Soul came out of the church."
"Soul music happened when rhythm and blues tapped into gospel, as well as country and western," Wirtz said. "It had an attitude. You can't sit still and listen to 'Papa's Got A Brand New Bag.'"

Basic Probability Theory I
- Gabriel Hancock

1 A Probability puzzler!! Basic Probability Theory I Dr. Tom Ilvento FREC 408 Our Strategy with Probability Generally, we want to get to an inference from a sample to a population. In this case the population is unknown, and we want to infer something from a known sample We want the sample to tell us something about the population In probability With probability we will do the reverse: We start with the notion that the population is known, i.e., the probabilities And infer something about the chances of obtaining various samples from the population Some Terms If we flip a coin and record the result a tails The result we record is an observation The process of making an observation is called an experiment (Def4.1 P193) More specifically, an experiment leads to a single outcome Which can t be predicted with certainty Some terms The basic outcome of an experiment is called a sample point And the collection of outcomes is called the sample space (Def4.6 P199). Outcomes of experiments are called events (Def4.2 P194). Part of our strategy will be to identify all the sample points, or all the possible outcomes of the experiment That is, to identify the sample space 1
2 What Does Probability Mean? Probabilities The probability of an event is a proportion between 0 and 1 that measures the likelihood that the outcome will occur when the experiment is performed. If we flip a coin, we expect that the probability of getting a heads is.5 Assuming a fair coin! It is a numerical measure of the likelihood that Outcome A will occur P(A) Prob(A) Certain Impossible A closer look at probability Flipping a coin Suppose you flip a coin What s the chance of getting a head? What s the chance of getting a tails? What does it mean when we state a coin flip as a probability? Does it mean that every other time it will be a heads? If we flip it 10 times, will we always get exactly five heads? If we flip it 1,000 times, will we get exactly 500 heads? Flipping a coin TRY IT IN CLASS Flip a coin 10 times Record the number of HEADs Calculate a probability of a HEAD based on your data Calculate the results # Head/10 The story of the Law of Averages John Kerrich was a South African mathematician who spent WWII in an internment camp very unlucky! He had a lot of time on his hands, so he carried out experiments in probability theory One viewpoint about the Law of Averages was that if you tossed a coin a lot of times, the number of heads and the number of tails would eventually equal out 2
3 Law of Averages Not so, said Kerrich! The probability of every toss is still 50/50. No matter what happened before, each toss has an equal chance In 100 tosses of a coin, 1,000 tosses, or 10,000 tosses, the probability of the next toss is still the same. Law of Averages Thus the difference between the number of heads and the number of tails could be quite large in 10,000 tosses We should expect 5,000 heads and 5,000 tails It could easily be 4,900 heads and 5,100 tails Law of Averages But, in relative terms, the difference will get smaller and smaller as the number of tosses gets larger and larger As the number of tosses increases the percentage of heads will approach 50% Law of Averages Our expectation is 50% heads and tails, with some chance error. As we increase the number of tosses, the observed percentage of heads (or tails) approaches 50% but it may never get there And the absolute difference between heads and tails may be large Law of Averages Total Heads / Number of Tosses The proportion of heads approaches.5 as the number of tosses increases ,000 1,250 Number of Tosses Probability The basic definition of probability is: # favorable events Total # outcomes It is a proportion! 3
4 Two Kinds of Probability A priori given by a definition and before the fact. It is generally mathematically defined. Example: Rolling a die with equal probabilities for each outcome There are 6 outcomes the probabilities for rolling a one is 1/6 A priori probabilities are based on the long run Two kinds of probabilities A posteriori derived empirically through repeated experiments We observe the probabilities after the fact from an experiment or series of experiments A survey approach would be a posteriori An example of an experiment Flip two coins in succession, then observe the face of the two coins Write out the sample space Sample space: Observe H H Observe H T Observe T H Observe T T S: [HH, HT, TH, TT] Another example We conduct an experiment and roll a single die and record the face Sample space of rolling a die Sample space: Observe a 1 Observe a 2 Observe a 3 Observe a 4 Observe a 5 Observe a 6 Set Notation S: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] 4
5 The sample space could be defined in several ways Experiment: roll a die and observe odd or even number Sample Space Observe an even number (2, 4, 6) Observe an odd number (1, 3, 5) S: [Even, Odd] More examples EXPERIMENT SAMPLE SPACE Toss a Coin, Note Face Head, Tail Toss 2 Coins, Note Faces HH, HT, TH, TT Select 1 Card, Note Kind 2, 2,..., A (52) Inspect a Part, Note Quality Defective, OK Interview and Observe Gender Male, Female Outcomes of Experiments We want outcomes (i.e., sample points) to be Mutually Exclusive two outcomes can t occur at the same time (Def4.4 P198) Collectively Exhaustive all possible outcomes are identified and no more possible outcomes are left out of sample space. Some more terms Random Trials The selection of any outcome is not predetermined; thus each outcome has a chance to be selected A fixed uneven dice would not be random, and would be lead to outcomes that are biased More terms Independent Trials The outcome is not conditioned upon previous events. The outcome of previous event has no compact on the outcome of current event. Flips of a coin are independent the probability of a head on a second flip is not influenced by the outcome on the first flip Probability Rules for Sample Points All sample point probabilities must lie between 0 and 1 A probability of 1 means CERTAINTY The probabilities of all sample points within a sample space must sum to 1 5
6 Roll of a single die More Terms - Events Sample Points TOTAL Probabilities 6/6 = An event is a specific collection of sample points For example, on a roll of the dice Sample points are [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] The Event A: [Even numbers] contains the sample points 2, 4, 6 The Event B: [Odd numbers] contains the sample points 1, 3, 5 Events are subsets, which can overlap or be mutually exclusive Probability of an Event The probability of an Event A, denoted as P(A), is calculated by summing the probabilities of the sample points in the sample space for Event A Steps for Calculating Probabilities of Events 1. Define the experiment describe process of making an observation 2. List the Sample Points 3. Assign probabilities to the Sample Points 4. Determine the collection of Sample Points contained in the Event of interest 5. Sum the Sample Points probabilities to get the Event probability Rolling a single die Outcomes U: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Probabilities for the outcomes Outcome 1 1/6 Outcome 2 1/6 Outcome 3 1/6 Outcome 4 1/6 Outcome 5 1/6 Outcome 6 1/6 Rolling a single die Event: rolling a 2 Outcome 2 P(rolling a 2) = 1/6 Event: rolling 3 or higher Outcomes 3, 4, 5, 6 P(rolling 3+) = 1/6+ 1/6 + 1/6 +1/6 = 2/3 P(rolling 3+) =.667 6
7 Rolling a single die Event: rolling an even number Outcomes 2, 4, 6 P (rolling even) = 1/6 +1/6 +1/6 =.5 Representing the Sample Space or Events We can represent the Sample Space and Events by Listing of the Set Venn Diagram Contingency Table Decision Tree Diagram Venn Diagram Contingency Table Outcome Experiment: Toss 2 Coins.

P(B) = P(IP+SC) = =.85 What is probability that social responsibility is not a primary reason for diversity training? P(Not SR) = P(CPP+IP+SC+O) = =.96 Diversity Problem For the last answer We could have thought of this as the compliment of SR Denoted as SR C SR C = 1 P(SR) SR C = =.96 10

Back to the Future – A Short Legal Tech History
I started my career in legal technology in 1989. For most practical purposes, this means I was in the legal market at the beginning of the PC revolution. And I had many colleagues who shared with me their technology experiences from the prior decades. For readers who may be frustrated at times with technology today, it's helpful to think how far we've come.
The current issue of the American Lawyer magazine has published my article, Back to the Future in the AmLaw Tech supplement. I had fun writing this – you may have fun reading it.
The online version did not include three "sidebars," which are available here.
Also of note, this is the last quarterly issue of AmLaw Tech as a stand-alone magazine. Quoting editor Mark Voorhees in his Editor's Letter: "It is time now to bid adieu to AmLaw Tech, the publication but not the concept." The supplement will appear annually in June, with the annual tech survey. A new AmLaw Tech column will appear in the main magazine. Why? Voorhees explains: "After compensation and rent, [technology] is the largest expense at most firms. We want to recognize the central role that technology palys at firms by covering it in our flagship rather than relegating it to a supplement."

How to Do a Wheelie in a Carby Contributor
Watching a muscle car generate enough torque to lift its front wheels off the ground can be exhilarating. With a little ingenuity and some modifications, you can learn to do a wheelie in your own car.
Install training wheels on the back of your car. These keep you from tipping over, and let you ride the wheelie for a while.
Differentiate the car's weight toward the rear by adding large tires to the back wheels, and small tires to the front ones. This gives the car a slight rake, which helps generate torque.
Lift your rear suspension slightly. As much as you need muscle under the hood, you need to convert that power to torque.
Warm up your tires with a few burn-outs to make them grip the road better.
Find a long, straight road with no traffic and line your car up. Give yourself room on both sides.
Put the car in first gear, and rev the engine to within 1,000 RPMs of red lining. This is where the muscle car sets itself apart from stock cars.
Release the clutch as quickly as possible without stalling. Keep the gas pedal jammed to the floor and ride the wheelie out.
- Never attempt a wheelie on a public road. At the very least you could get a ticket, but even worse you could hurt someone.
- Never attempt a wheelie alone. Make sure someone is outside of the car to call for help if anything should go wrong.

Operations Manager for leading challenger bank
Our team worked closely with the Senior Operations Manager at the bank to place an Operations Manager that the client had 100% confidence in. We had a historic understanding of the client's business and instinctively knew the personality and cultural fit necessary for the bank.
The requirement:
- 1 week to make an offer
- £425 per day
- Contract role
- Night shift
- The right candidate needed operations experience within a PPI environment at a large Financial Services organisation, managing over 250 FTE
- Save the bank £30 per day to replace the consultancy they were working with
Main challenges:
- The client wanted someone who had not previously worked for the bank and who was not a part of his existing network – due to the nature and location of this client there was an existing and small pool of candidates that the client was familiar with
- The right personality and cultural fit was crucial
- The candidate needed to bring a fresh direction to the operation
- The client required a trustworthy candidate due to the responsibility necessary for the night shift
Our process:
- The Grovelands' network was utilised
- CVs were sent to the client within 48 hours
- Candidates were supported to find accommodation and travel
- 3 candidates were interviewed
- Client made an offer within 1 week

National Aboriginal Day of Prayer
21 June 2017
The Gathering of the Community
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
And also with you.
We are one in Christ;
we are a new creation.
What was cast down is being raised up;
what has grown old is being made new.
In Christ we have been reconciled to God
and we have been entrusted with the ministry of reconciliation.
We entreat one another and the whole world:
Be reconciled with God and with all our sisters and brothers.
Collect of the Day
Let us pray.
Creator God, from you every family in heaven and earth takes its name. You have rooted and grounded us in your covenant love, and empowered us by your Spirit to speak the truth in love and to walk in your way towards justice and wholeness. Mercifully grant that your people, journeying together in partnership, may be strengthened and guided to help one another to grow into the full stature of Christ, who is our light and our life. Amen.
The Proclamation of the Word of God
The First Reading: Isaiah 40.25-31
A reading from the prophet Isaiah.
To whom then will you compare me, or who is my equal? says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high and see: Who created these? He who brings out their host and numbers them, calling them all by name; because he is great in strength, mighty in power, not one is missing.
Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the Lord, and my right is disregarded by my God"? Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church.
Thanks be to God.
The Psalm of the Day: Psalm 19
1 The heavens declare the glory of God, *
and the firmament shows the handiwork of the Lord.
2 One day tells its tale to another, *
and one night imparts knowledge to another.
3 Although they have no words or language, *
and their voices are not heard,
4 their sound has gone out into all lands, *
and their message to the ends of the world.
5 In the deep has God set a pavilion for the sun; *
it comes forth like a bridegroom out of the chamber of the heavens;
it rejoices like a champion to run its course.
6 It goes forth from the uttermost edge of the heavens
and runs about to the end of it again; *
nothing is hidden from its burning heat.
7 The law of the Lord is perfect and revives the soul; *
the testimony of the Lord is sure
and gives wisdom to the innocent.
8 The statutes of the Lord are just and rejoice the heart; *
the commandment of the Lord is clear
and gives light to the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean and endures for ever; *
the judgements of the Lord are true
and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, *
more than much fine gold,
sweeter far than honey, *
than honey in the comb.
11 By them also is your servant enlightened, *
and in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Who can tell how often they offend? *
Cleanse me from my secret faults.
13 Above all, keep your servant from presumptuous sins; *
let them not get dominion over me;
then shall I be whole and sound, *
and innocent of a great offense.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart
be acceptable in your sight; *
O Lord, my strength and my redeemer.
The Gospel: John 1.1-18
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to John.
Glory to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.
He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son, full of grace and truth. (John testified to him and cried out, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.'") From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father's heart, who has made him known.
The Gospel of Christ.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
The Sermon
The Prayers of the Community
Intercessions, Thanksgivings and Petitions
With all our brothers and sisters and with people of goodwill in this Diocese and in our country, let us offer our intercessions, thanksgivings and petitions, saying, 'Creator God, have mercy.' Creator God, hear our prayer.
We accept and confess before God and one another our church's failures in the residential schools. We failed indigenous people. We failed you. Creator God, hear our prayer.
We give thanks for the voices that have spoken of pain and hurt experienced in the schools and of the scars which endure to this day. We honour the sacredness of the stories and hold in highest honour those who have told them. We pray for all people who are still living with the effects of the schools. Creator God, hear our prayer.
We give thanks for the people and communities who work for healing and reconciliation. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You have given us land and knowledge for our self-sufficiency. You have given us bodies and strength to work hard. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You teach us about honesty and being fair. You tell us to have respect for ourselves and for others. You teach us about our responsibilities to our community and the value of working together. You show us how to make life better for other people. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You have given us children to love and through this love we live long after we are gone. Our children are our present not just our future. When we love them, they love others. This is the way it is supposed to be. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You help us to grow old and in our journey you provide us with knowledge and wisdom for living. Our elders are our way to the past to learn those things we must carry on. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You put us upon this great land and put things here that we need to survive. You show us how to care for the land and treat land, animals, trees, waters, plants and weather with respect. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
You made us a part of a larger family and we must remember where we come from and how we came to be where we are. We will pass these on to our children. Creator God, hear our prayer.
To you, loving Creator, be honour, praise and thanksgiving, now and for ever. Amen.
The Exchange of the Peace
May the peace of Christ be with you all.
And also with you.
The Holy Communion
The Prayer over the Gifts
Let us pray.
Creator, you bless us with many good gifts returned to you from your creation. Feed us with the Bread of Life, your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Thanksgiving at the Table
The Lord be with you.
And also with you.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise.
Blessed are you, gracious God, creator of heaven and earth; you are the source of light and life for all your creation, you made us in your own image, and call us to new life in Jesus Christ our Saviour. Therefore we praise you, joining our voices to proclaim the glory of your name.
Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might. Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
Holy God, you alone are holy, you alone are God. The universe declares your praise: beyond the stars; beneath the sea; within each cell; with every breath.
Generations bless your faithfulness: through the water; by night and day; across the wilderness; out of exile; into the future.
We give you thanks for your dear Son: at the heart of human life; near to those who suffer; beside the sinner; among the poor; with us now.
In the night in which he was betrayed, our Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks; broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying: Take and eat; this is my body, given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.
Again, after supper, he took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it for all to drink, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood, shed for you and for all people for the forgiveness of sin. Do this for the remembrance of me.
Remembering his love for us on the way, at the table, and to the end, we proclaim the mystery of faith.
Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.
We pray for the gift of your Spirit: in our gathering; within this meal; among your people; throughout the world.
Blessing, praise and thanks to you, holy God, through Christ Jesus, by your Spirit, in your church, without end. Amen.
The Lord's Prayer
As our Saviour taught us, let us pray,
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial, and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and for ever. Amen.
The Breaking of the Bread
Creator of all, you gave us golden fields of wheat, whose many grains we have gathered and made into this one bread.
So may your Church be gathered from the ends of the earth into your reign of justice and peace.
The gifts of God for the people of God.
Thanks be to God.
The Sending Forth of the Community
The Prayer after Communion
Let us pray.
Great Creator, you have fed us with bread from heaven. Continue to renew us in your truth, to give light to our minds, strength to our bodies and seal us with your Holy Spirit. We ask this in Christ's name. Amen.
Glory to God, whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine. Glory to God from generation to generation, in the Church and in Christ Jesus, for ever and ever. Amen.
The Dismissal
Go in peace as ambassadors of God's reconciling love.
Thanks be to God.

Every once in a while, my kids say something so innocently profound, it prompts me to examine myself. Like this one: "Mom, I wish you were a kid. Because then you could play with me," my four-year-old chirped. She sat at the kitchen table coloring dinosaur pictures with crayons while I mixed muffin batter across the room. I looked up from my bowl and raised my eyebrows.
"What do you mean? I can still play with you even though I'm your mom."
"Nope, you can't." She shrugged. "You're a grown-up. Too bad."
Hmm. I set my spatula on the counter and considered this revelation. Is Mom really so boring in her eyes? Think about it. We grown-ups cook dinner, wash dishes, pay taxes and sit still through half-hour sermons. Compared to dinosaurs and hula hoops and playground swings, I suppose we are kind of dull.
Parents must shoulder adult responsibilities and yes, those are important. But who says they have to define our children's view of us?
When my kids were babies, a wise mentor gave me this advice: Be the fun family. Play together. Laugh together. Be the parents who willingly venture into a child's world, and create a home where your kids want to be — so as they grow, they won't go seeking their kicks elsewhere.

Judge sentences Wyoming prison inmate to 35 years in murder-for-hire plot against parents
CHEYENNE, Wyo. – A Wyoming prison inmate has been sentenced to an additional 35 years behind bars for trying to hire a hit man to kill his mother and stepfather while incarcerated.
U.S. District Judge Nancy Freudenthal (FREE-den-thawl) of Cheyenne on Thursday sentenced 23-year-old Andrew Silicani on four counts of using the mail in his unsuccessful attempt to commission the murders.
Silicani apologized in court.
His mother, Cheryl Lambert, told Freudenthal the sentencing hearing was the saddest and most difficult day of her life. She says she loves her son, but says she and her husband fear he would again try to kill them if he's released.
Silicani already was serving a five- to seven-year state sentence for robbery.
Freudenthal denied a request from Silicani's lawyer to sentence him to 20 years.

In April we spent our Easter holiday in the summer house with Nina's sisters and their families. The arrival of the Easter bunny was a highlight. The hunt was on, with 10 cousins in fierce competition trying to find all the sweets hidden in the garden. Atlas looked like a winner.
Nina has switched from a public dental clinic to the private clinic Smile, where she is now enjoying her work as a dentist.
Ola is still working as an Export manager. During his latest business trip, to St Petersburg, the volcano eruption in Iceland cancelled the return flights. Ola did not mind since he likes to travel overland instead of flying. He managed to get back to Sweden by car to Helsinki, boat to Stockholm and bus again to Malmö. It took a few days longer, but it was an interesting experience. Now he regrets that he did not buy an old Russian Niva jeep in which he could have driven home. Maybe next time…

Now this one certainly caught my attention. Don't know why. Maybe it's that darn Reindeer!
Being resourceful, I traced the image in the negative space of the grungeboard onto cardstock, trimmed it out, and overstamped it with another decorative stamp! Wall-ah, kewl Reindeer! I used Pearl-ex in Mink with Vintage Photo DI and a drop of gum arabic in my mini-mister (LOVE them) for the background. The deer was over-painted using Lemongrass mica powder with Future in a Koi brush....
In real life, it does have some nice shimmer to it! I think I may go back & edge this with Krylon gold marker. It seems to be missing something......

Transform Your Kitchen Cabinets To Like New On A Budget
Make Your Old Cabinets Look New
Replacing your old kitchen cabinets
It can be very expensive. Why not do it yourself? If you can sand, paint, and use a screwdriver, then you can do this job. First, gather all your tools and materials, then remove all the doors and drawer fronts and the cabinet hardware. Next, using a sponge sander with very fine sandpaper, lightly sand all cabinet surfaces. Take your time, and be very careful.
Resurfacing Your Kitchen Cabinets
Step By Step
Next, clean all cabinet surfaces with laquer thinner. Some cabinets, especially older ones, may take three or more times. When the cabinets are clean to your satisfaction, you are ready for the next step, priming the wood surface.
To prime the wood, use a primer that bonds with and fills the wood surface. With this step, make sure the room that you are working in is well ventilated, if possible, prime the doors and drawer fronts outside. Let the cabinets dry for 48 hours.
Now you are ready to paint your cabinets. Make sure to use satin paint (washable) and let the cabinets dry thoroughly between coats. If you prefer to stain your cabinets, make sure you use a sealer after the stain dries.
The last step is to reinstall the doors and the drawer fronts and put the hardware back on. You may want to buy new hardware after you see how good your "new" kitchen cabinets look!

On a (surprisingly) sunny Sunday, I hit up the coast at Margate. About 40 minutes north of Dover, Margate is on the very edge of England and is full of beaches, arcades and music.
One of the main attractions lately is Dreamland, a small theme park being rebuilt in honour of the original park, first named so in 1920. While it's free to enter, the park totally gives off the vintage-vibe, great food trucks and was really fun to wander. Overall, a really fun (and cheap!) afternoon out in Kent.
Keeping it short this time – the pictures will do the rest!


text: I have been monitoring the discussions about peer review and feel that I should step in and offer some points of view from an editor's point of view. Most of you know that I have edited several scholarly books on dinosaurs (4, with 3 more in development), but I am also associate editor for the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology and for the journal Earth Sciences History. In addition, I teach Research Methods and Report Writing class at the museum here. Thus, I am well qualified to address this issue of peer review. First, however, to clarify an issue. There is a mistaken belief that if you are a professional paleontologist, you are guaranteed to get your paper published. Nothing could be farther from the truth. My rejected manuscripts include: one written with Greg Paul in the early 1980s where we suggested that Velociraptor was a ground-dwelling descendent of Archaeopteryx (submitted to Palaeontographica), another written in the 1980s naming a new species of Late Cretaceous gar (submitted to Copeia), another on the function of armor in ankylosaurs written in the early 1990s (submitted to Paleobiology; these ideas were later published by someone else!!), a manuscript (2001) with Angela Matthias on our experimental work on ants collecting of fossils (Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology), and another (2002) on evidence for spike use by Stegosaurus (Nature). One that almost did not get published was one naming a new pterosaur from the Morrison. The reviewer rejected it on the grounds that ! he did not think the museum the hlotype is at was suitable, but I managed to prevail with the editor (it is now in press). Finally, another discussing bone beds and mass catastrophes that was rejected for publication in a Geological Society of America volume on K-T extinction. Fortunately, I was able to salvage part of that work and published it with Emmett Evanoff on the taphonomy and sedimentology of the Marsh-Felch Quarry (Modern Geology). Why these manuscripts were rejected cover a wide range: the manuscript with Greg was rejected because the editor felt that it should be published in a journal that allows Letters to the Editor (e.g., Science, Nature) or a similar venue of debate. They knew that it would be a controversial topic and felt that the journal should be one that would foster debate. Greg and I never did submit it elsewhere, in part because it would mean a massive trimming of text, and also I think we thought the other person would take the lead. In at least one instance, I know that one of the reviewers was negative because basically, he did not think of the idea first (to ameliorate that problem, there are usually at least two reviewers). At least one rejection was strictly personal because the editor and I once had a major clash. I could have submitted the manuscript elsewhere, but I have gone on to other topics. Nevertheless, I don't like getting a manuscript rejected anymore than any of the res! t of you. Some professional paleotologists publish very little in their life time because for them the review process is too emotional. The sting of review comments or rejection hurts too much and they are not able to get beyond it. As an editor, as well as when I am asked to be a reviewer, I freely admit that I am hard. BUT I do spend a lot of time with the manuscript trying to help the author to salvage it. I have done so even though my recommendation has been for it to be publish it elsewhere. And that raises another issue: not ever journal is suitable for your manuscript. The editors for Palaeontographica were correct that their journal was not the correct outlet for Greg's and my manuscript. With JVP, we are having to make harder choices regarding suitable manuscripts. It is VERY doubtful that the paper reporting a hadrosaur tooth from Antarctica would get published now. Not that the occurrence isn't important, but because JVP receives hundreds of manuscripts every year, some qualifiers are needed, the best of which is that the manuscript must have a broad, international appeal. An occurrence of a hadrosaur in Antarctica (which cannot be identified more than that) really is something of minor inter! est, and to a specialist (e.g., smeone compiling a fauna list for Antarctica, etc.). In today's climate, the authors would be recommended to submit the manuscript elsewhere, perhaps Neues Jahrbuch or a journal specializing in Antarctica geology. So, what would now be an acceptable paper for JVP? One that names a new taxon, one that describes a new specimen that provides new and major morphological detail, etc. As an editor and reviewer, I do try to be fair and am open to a well reasoned argument. After all, I am the one who stuck my neck out to defend John Rubin despite the fact that I disagree with him on bird origins(he is a proponent of non-dinosaur bird origin). Most manuscripts actually get rejected because the arguments are not well made. The biggest flaw is that the writer assumes too much of the reader, so does not build the case like a lawyer: step by step. Instead, in order to immediately present their gem of an idea, the building arguments are left out. But how am I, the reader, suppose to follow your lines of reasoning to how you got to your idea if you fail to give them to me? After all, I haven't been in your mind to follow the progression of your ideas over the days/weeks/months. Without mentioning names, some of those who grouse about the peer review system have failed here. The onus is upon you to convince me that you are right, not upon me to prove you wrong (the! Creationist approach). If I am nt convinced that Tarbosaurus baatar (=Tyrannosaurus baatar) is a new genus, it is because the case was not well presented. An "it's obvious" attitude does not work (after all, Creationists use that argument to "prove" that God had to be responsible for the complexity of life). Finally, the review process really is supposed to help improve the quality of the paper. The vast majority of review comments are spelling corrections, punctuation, grammar, unclear writing, etc. If an author would follow most of those without taking the comments personally, the manuscript would be greatly improved. However, it is those small, rather irritating comments of disagreement that can get under the skin. Usually the problem, as I wrote above, is that the time was not spent to develop the argument fully - and that most certainly applies to the 'raptors as secondary flightlessness debate - or to present the arguments clearly. Poor writing is certainly a cause for miss-understanding (hence rejecting) a manuscript. If I don't understand or miss-understand an argument or line of reasoning, then having the manuscript rejected is sometimes viewed as a rejection of the idea - which may not be true. My advice to someone wanting to improve their writing, there are books on scientific writing - READ THEM. I strongly recommend "Successful Scientific Writing" by J. Matthews, J. Bowen, and R. Matthews (Cambridge University Press). If you are unwilling to be trained, then you have no one to blame but yourself if your manuscript gets rejected - and that is NOT a conspiracy.
