A Cannabis Carol With Scenes from the Emerald Cup and the Lost Coast Ganja Cup
T'was two months after harvest, when on sites by the Coast,
Gathered hundreds, nay thousands, who loved marijuana the most.
The buds had been taken from trimmers with care,
In hopes that a cannabis cup soon would be theirs.
The growers were nestled all snug in warm threads
While visions of winning danced in their heads.
And my friend in her brown hat and I, without cap,
Had just got in my car and looked at our map.
We drove to Fortuna where there arose such a clatter
Of chicken and dogs wondering what was the matter
The host opened the door and invited us in
The Lost Coast Ganja Cup was about to begin.
This week's North Coast Journal cover article lets me take you into the world of the local Cannabis Cups–including the justly famous Emerald cup and the very private Lost Coast Ganja Cup. Come explore two amazing underground events–a mix of outlaw growers and medical providers!

A big special thank you goes out to the Murdock family for their hospitality this weekend. A great time was had by all and the experience was exactly what we needed!
Lisa had invited us up to their St. Mary's lake house for Memorial Day (an invitation that we still think was given in jest, but you all know that it's never safe to joke around with the Thornburg's!!!).
St Mary's is usually about 45 minutes away from Columbus, but Ohio Highway Patrol was out to insure that our drive was a safe one. It ended up being a much lengthier hour-and-a-half. Seriously, they were parked about every 5 miles or so. As a side-note, anybody that drives drunk or speeds on Memorial Day weekend deserves their punishment.
Anyway, long story short, we arrived with every intention of camping in the front yard, but Ted & Lisa would here nothing of it. Seriously, we had tents and sleeping bags all ready to go!
They were so nice to show us a good time. We barbecued, drank, shared parenting stories and played some poker. Tenzin and Madison had a blast. She's grown up sooo much since I saw her last (Tenzin's baby shower in Columbus!).
We had planned on leaving Monday morning, but Ted coaxed us into going out on the pontoon boat with the jet skis. I'm so glad we stayed. It was such a good time for us and so much fun for the kids. And let me say one thing: The only thing more exciting than flying across a lake at 50 mph on a four-person jet ski is seeing your wife flail through the air and into the water on a turn. Sorry, Rachel! Luckily the water was warm or else I'd be writing this from the couch.
This weekend also gave me some ideas. Why hasn't anybody invented a waterbed crib? That rocking motion is like baby Ambien. Tenzin was out cold for the first hour!
We also had quite a bit of spit-up. I hope it wasn't a result of seasickness, or else this kid is going to have a looooong road ahead of him. We'll have to train that stomach for future fishing trips with West Coast Grandpa!
All in all, we couldn't have asked for more. What started out as a random road trip turned into a wonderful, wonderful weekend. Thanks again, guys.

Muted industry response to platooning
The industry has reacted with caution to news last week that the government has approved motorway trials for autonomous trucks.
Transport Research Laboratory (TRL) has been awarded a contract to test platooning, with up to three lorries travelling in formation, reacting autonomously to the acceleration and braking of the first one.
All the vehicles in the convoy will have a driver behind the wheel, but only the driver of the lead vehicle will use the pedals, with the other drivers required to steer only. It's hoped this will allow the lorries to travel much closer together, reducing wind resistance and thus saving up to 10% on fuel.
TRL will begin the trials on a test track before moving them to public roads towards the end of the year. It hasn't said yet which roads will be identified for testing.
However, while autonomy is an inevitable destination, and platooning has already been tested in Germany, Japan and the US, not all within the industry are convinced it will work effectively on the congested motorways of the UK.
The AA:
Sir Edmund King, president of the AA, said, 'We all want to promote fuel efficiency and reduce congestion but we are not yet convinced that lorry platooning on UK motorways is the way to go about it. We have some of the busiest motorways in Europe with many more exits and entries. Platooning may work on the miles of deserted freeways in Arizona or Nevada but this is not America.'
The RAC:
Director Steve Gooding said, 'Streams of close-running HGVs could provide financial savings on long-distance journeys, but on our heavily congested motorways, with stop-start traffic and vehicles jostling for position, the benefits are less certain.'
Freight Transport Association:
Christoper Snelling, head of national policy, said, 'Platooning could be an innovative means of reducing fuel use so saving costs and reducing carbon and air quality emissions. Driving closely together, platoons of trucks take up less space on the road, and travelling at constant speeds can help improve traffic flows and reduce tailbacks. However, the system has to be shown to be safe on the roads and to deliver the promised benefits. The sooner the trial takes place, the sooner the UK logistics industry, which represents 11% of the UK's non-financial business economy, can know if this will be the right route for the future. Platooning could be a real opportunity to optimise logistics on the road – we need to know if it is the way forward as soon as possible.'
Jason Wakeford, director of campaigns, said, 'Rather than platooning lorries on already congested UK roads, the Government should instead cut emissions and improve public safety by moving more freight from road to rail. Each freight train takes around 60 HGVs off the road network. This rigorous trial is needed to prove whether this technology really can provide the safety and environmental benefits which are claimed.'
IAM RoadSmart:
Neil Greig, director of policy and research, said, 'Motorways are our safest roads and that record must not be jeopardised by any rush towards autonomous technology. The pilot study may answer these questions but car and motorbike users will need a lot of reassurance that the systems will not block the inside lane with an extra-long 'wall' of trucks. The technology exists to implement platooning but in the real world it must deliver real economic benefits to outweigh our safety worries.'

Dog lovers, get ready to freak out. Last Sunday, Khmer blab-sheet Rasmei Kampuchea Daily ran a story about Pov Nat, who travels with moto and cage, scouring the rural backblocks for dogs to sell to a butcher in Siem Reap. The butcher supplies restaurants catering to tourists from South Korea.
The dog dude said he actually buys dogs rather than indulging in dog-napping, and said the butcher pays him 16,000 riel a kilo for each dog.
"I buy between six and 11 dogs a day and purchases are based on orders from the butcher in Siem Reap. Dogs bought from rural areas have good meat. The clients in Siem Reap like it but say the meat is not as delicious as dog meat raised abroad."
Siem Reap guesthouse owner Erich Bader, a Swiss national, was freed from prison on Monday August 20, where he had been serving time after being convicted of purchasing child prostitution from two minors, aged 11 and 16.
Bader, the owner of the Prince Mekong Villa guesthouse, was sentenced to two years in prison by the Siem Reap provincial court on April 21 last year.
His time in the nick was backdated to his arrest in August 2010.
He was also ordered to pay compensation of nine million riel (about US$2,250) to his victims, but according to prosecutor Ty Soveinthal this hasn't been paid because the families haven't applied for it.
Bader, who previously served a two-year prison term for child sex offences in Switzerland, moved to Siem Reap about seven years ago.
A rare photo unearthed this month of one of 11 westerners killed at the Khmer Rouge's Tuol Sleng interrogation centre was a sad reminder of the demise of Siem Reap expat, Frenchman Andres Gaston Courtigne, who was 30 at time of arrest.
According to his S-21 file, he was arrested in Kampong Kdey district in Siem Reap on April 15, 1976
He had worked as a French embassy clerk and typist in Siem Reap, but his S-21 file described his "current role" as "new farmer, rice growing and herding cows."
The file reveals that he was married to Chhay Rasy, formerly of Kas Kralor province, Battambang. The couple had two children – a daughter and a son.
Siem Reap and Austin, Texas are to be bound together as Friendship Cities, and the establishment of this could eventually lead to sister city status.
An official Friendship City agreement signing will take place on November 5 this year, at Austin City Hall live via Skype. Austin's mayor Lee Leffingwell will sign on behalf of Austin, and an Austin delegation will travel to Siem Reap to have the local governor sign simultaneously.
The collaboration is being speared by Jamie Amelio, ceo of Caring For Cambodia, and Channy Soeur, ceo of CAS Consulting & Services, a civil, environmental and transportation engineering company.
Jamie C Amelio is the founder of Caring for Cambodia, an NGO that educates children and trains teachers in Siem Reap. The NGO came about after she holidayed in Cambodia in 2003.

The Phoenix Suns were without guards Shannon Brown and Sebastian Telfair for the team's loss to the Sacramento Kings in their preseason opener Wednesday.
Brown bumped heads with P.J. Tucker in practice on Tuesday and needed seven stitches above his eye.
Head coach Alvin Gentry said during his pregame interview with Al McCoy that the Suns opted to hold Brown out but implied he would have played if it were the regular season.
"[Brown's] okay. It's just one of those things, but there's no reason to risk him getting hit there again."
Telfair had a minor injury ailment of his own that Gentry felt wasn't worth risking Wednesday.
"[Telfair] has a little bit of a wrist problem so we're going to hold him out, too," Gentry said. "Not anything to be concerned about, just precautionary."
The Suns fell to the Kings 102-96 in Sacramento. They will face off against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday at 7:00 p.m.

Critic Reviews for The Mysteries of Laura: Season 1
All Critics (44) | Top Critics (24) | Fresh (10) | Rotten (34)
The Mysteries of Laura is a disasterpiece of the first order, a show so colossally wrongheaded, so cringe-inducingly terrible that one almost has to see it to believe it.
The weakest element is the procedural, and because that's ostensibly why Mysteries of Laura is an hour long, it's a fatal flaw.
Messing is most agreeable, hitting her comedy marks and credible as supercop.
The Mysteries of Laura... has really snappy writing. It's good enough, in fact, to make this hour quite entertaining, but only if you can put aside the show's overt artificiality.
This series, which blends and bends genres, tries to balance sketchy character development with a sketchy tone, then ends with a payoff that's rushed and implausible.
The home-life stuff, especially the misbehavior of the kids, is tough to take.

Germany v Italy Preview
Tonight sees the 2nd semi final in the 2012 European Championships when Germany take on Italy in Warsaw with Spain awaiting the winners.
It promises to be an exciting encounter like most have been when these two countries have met.
Both sides have looked impressive so far and it could be a great game if past meetings as well as current results are anything to go by.
Germany won all their games in their group to qualify and have since won all 3 group games against tough opponents Portugal, Holland and Denmark and then their quarter final against Greece to win through. They came into the tournament as one of the big favourites and nothing has changed to make them less so and are currently top scorers with 9 goals having conceded 4.
Their opponents Italy meanwhile have scored 4 and have conceded just 2
Italy's results haven't been quite as commanding but have still been impressive and they are not to be underestimated. They are unbeaten throughout the whole campaign where they easily won their qualifying group and then started in the finals with a tough game against holders Spain. But unlike a lot of their opponents they had a lot of possession and created a few good scoring chances and came away with a 1-1 draw. This was also their result against Croatia before winning their final group game against Republic of Ireland to qualify for the quarter final. They came up against England and were the superior team throughout but were unable to score so after 90 minutes and a further 30 minutes extra time with no goals Italy got through via a tense penalty shoot out.
Although Germany have scored most goals Italy have certainly created enough chances of their own and with a bit more composure shown in front of goal they could easily have had a few more.
Although both squads are filled with quality players 2 who really stand out are Germanys Bastian Schweinsteiger and Italy's Andrea Pirlo. Both are capable of dictating play and creating great chances for their team. Whoever plays best between them could well decide the whole contest.
It is certainly possible that tiredness could be a big issue in this game.
Italy played a hard game against England in their quarter final which went to extra time a full 2 days after Germany had a much easier game against Greece.
But going on the history of this fixture Italy have a fantastic chance.
So far the countries have met on 7 occasions in tournament matches going back 50 years and amazingly Germany have yet to win.
So if the German players allow this to play on their minds it could well become a mental problem for them to overcome.
All these games have been very close right enough. They met twice in World Cup groups in 1962 and 1978 and both games finished 0-0, and twice in European Championship groups and there was another 0-0 draw in 1996 and a 1-1 draw in 1988 when current Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini scored his first goal for Italy.
The other three games were all World Cup knock out matches and Italy won them all, although 2 of them also finished level after 90 minutes and needed extra time. They met in a fantastic game in the 1970 semi final and after finishing 1-1 there was an unbelievable 5 goals in extra time as Italy won 4-3 and then in the semi final of 2006 when after finishing 0-0 Italy scored 2 goals right at the end of extra time to win through.
The only tournament game between them that has seen a winner after 90 minutes was the biggest of them all- the World Cup Final. When they met in 1982 the Paolo Rossi inspired Italians won 3-1 to take the trophy.
So whatever happens with this next match if it is even half as good as these classics it would be extremely memorable.
Can't believe how badly Germany blew it. Terrible, atrocious, juvenile crossing attempts, and a defense that fell apart at any sign of trouble. Germany, I am losing the faith I accepted as a boy, and it is entirely your own fault.

For the people that think I have alts. No I don't you just have to believe my word. Otherwise I won't be here crying for forgiveness.
No I don't want to be legit to scam again. It was never ment for the money otherwise I should't have returned it. I just want to be like any other parallel mafia player. Make money , run foundry's cap stuff, do wars , have one family, laugh and have fun..
But some people don't want me to have that. Tell me what to do. Ill do anything. U want me to give you money or cap your stuff? Ill do that. Just let me play this game like everyone else. I can't explain how happy I was being in eye and sic. I love those people and see now how they act against me that really breaks me.
So it's up to you. This will be my last topic. Never though I game like this would have to so much hate and rage. People behind these screens have real feelings and emotions don't forget that.

Hearing begins on plans to transform College Green into pedestrian plaza
DUBLIN City Council is outlining plans to turn College Green into a world-renowned pedestrian plaza.
An Bord Pleanala has begun a five-day hearing into the proposal, at the Gresham Hotel, in the city centre.
Officials for the council said the plan was to reclaim College Green as a "preeminent public space for Dublin" and create world class public space.
"It will strengthen the historic city centre in counter balance to the vigorous expansion of the city centre eastwards," council architect Ali Grehan said.
Central to the plan is a hierarchy of travelers in the city centre with pedestrians and cyclists at the top and private vehicle owners at the bottom.
Ms Grehan said it has been a historic meeting place in the capital sine the first viking settlement.
Should the project get the go ahead vehicles would no longer be able to pass through College Green.
The area would be lined with trees, have a two-lane cycle track and become a suitable venue for events and performances.
A number of local businesses have objected to the plan on the basis it may cause fewer people to come to the city centre.
There are also concerns about traffic flow across the River Liffey and the impact of traffic congestion.
Head of the council's technical services, Brendan O'Brien, explained how bus routes could be maintained.
Buses heading northbound will avoid the plaza by using Winetavern Street while southbound buses will be diverted along the quays.
A turning area for buses will be built at Dame Street bordering the proposed pedestrian plaza.

A lof of the "news" we get about upcoming nerdy-themed movies isn't exactly Earth-shattering, but this I did found kind of interesting. While talking to SFX Magazine, Marvel Studios honcho Kevin Feige talked about the overal tone of Marvel's Phase 2 plans and how it's basically two halves of a whole: the highlighting of the cosmic side of the Marvel U on one hand, and an exploration of the inner-minds of its characters on the other. Here's what Feige had to say:
"The Thor film and the Guardians of the Galaxy film certainly are cosmic. Guardians and Thor will take the brunt of the cosmic side of the universe, particularly Guardians, which is 95% in space. I think Iron Man 3 shows the other side of Phase 2, which is delving deeper into the characters. Throwing them on a much more personal journey. And Captain America will showcase [that]. What's exciting to me about Cap, sort of about Iron Man 3 too if you look at it, is it's tonally almost like a different genre. Shane Black's described Iron Man 3 as a Tom Clancy sort of political thriller, which I like a lot. We hired our directors on Cap because they loved our explanation that we really want to make a 70s political thriller masquerading as a big superhero movie. Just like with the first film, we got Joe Johnston because we said, 'We want to do a 40s World War Two movie masquerading as a big superhero movie.' I love that we're doing a sequel to a film that's a completely different genre than the first film. I think that's fun. And the comics do it all the time."
In other news, Feige added that fans shouldn't look for too much connective tissue between Guardians of the Galaxy and the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe when it comes out next year.
"It's much more of a standalone film. It takes place in the same universe. And when we've been on the other side of that universe in other movies, you might see those characteristics in Guardians, but the Avengers are not involved with what's happening out there at this time."
Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World will come out later this year, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy will be out in 2014, and Phase 2 will come to an end with The Avengers 2 summer 2015.
More news as it develops.

Glenn Beck, today, is talking about the the urging of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and New York Governor David Paterson to the USDA to exclude sugary drinks from food stamp eligibility. Lots of problems with this.
First of all, people on food stamps should be trying to take care of their health anyway. Now, a lot of people don't force themselves to make good/positive decisions – does that mean we need to force them? NO! NO, because that means that the government has more power and control – ESPECIALLY OVER WHAT PEOPLE EAT! Dangerous. Welfare and food stamps are set up to help people and that is fine – at the end of the day, we help ourselves.
Second of all, if there is an issue with obesity, our focus should be on education, not on forcing people to eat better. It will never happen. You cannot force people to change personal and dietary habits (unless by force, and that my friends is unconstitutional). People have to want to change.
Last, WE ARE AMERICANS. How in the world are we going to let Uncle Sam (e.g. federal government, state government) tell us if we can eat soda, or Oreos, or Doritos, or whatever? We won't! We are more resiliant than that! Now, I urge us all to take heed and attempt to eat local and organic when we can – but to hell with these men in suits telling us what we can or cannot eat even if we are on some kind of government assistance. And, even more reason to become more self-sufficient and not depend on those yahoos anyway.
I am a health food nut. I don't eat generally eat Doritos. But the government will never tell me if I can or cannot eat them – over my sugar-filled, Dorito-clenching body.
– Tisha Casida

All year groups follow a programme of study for PSHRE/Citizenship which includes Religious education, Personal Social and Health Education (including Sex and Drug education) and Citizenship. The topics are studied on a rolling programme across all year groups and can be taught as stand-alone PSHE or can be combined e.g. PSHRE which will look at issues from a religious and secular viewpoint. Citizenship is taught as a stand-alone topic and is taught to all year groups.
Assembly and form time also support the PSHRE/Citizenship programme, Assemblies, Pause for thought and RE in form time link into the programme of study as well as reflecting issues that arise in the college. The PSHRE department also have a twitter account that 'tweets' information on religious festivals and inspirational quotes you can follow us
All staff who deliver sensitive topics are trained to do so and if parents have any questions or concerns about the topics studied they should contact the school and we would be glad to discuss this with you. More detailed information about the topics covered can be found on the following pages.
PSHE is taught in lessons on a rolling programme and is also covered in form time and through assemblies. There is no formal qualification in PSHE, however 'PSHE education is a planned programme of learning through which children and young people acquire the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to manage their lives. As part of a whole school approach, PSHE develops the qualities and attributes pupils need to thrive as individuals, family members and members of society' PSHE Association.

High Serum Levels of Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (pro BNP) Identify Cardioembolic Origin in Undetermined Stroke

Background: Stroke subtype diagnosis leads to specific therapies to reduce recurrences. Because nearly one third of patients remain with unknown etiology after a complete screening workup, we aim to investigate whether molecular markers of myocardial damage were associated with cardioembolic stroke and if they were useful to reclassify strokes of undetermined etiology.
Methods: We included 262 patients with first ischemic stroke within the first 12 hours. Stroke subtype was evaluated by TOAST criteria. Stroke of undetermined origin were reclassified into likely atherothrombotic or likely cardioembolic according to a predefined non-validated algorithm. Blood samples were obtained on admission to determine serum levels of molecular markers (pro-BNP, pro-ANP and CK-MB) of myocardial damage.
Results: Patients with cardioembolic infarct showed higher levels of pro-BNP, pro-ANP and CK-MB. Pro-BNP > 360 pg/mL was independently associated with cardioembolic stroke (OR: 28.51, CI95%: 5.90–136.75, p < 0.0001). Stroke etiology was undetermined in 82 patients (31%); 34 were reclassified as likely cardioembolic, 22 as likely atherothrombotic, and 26 remained as undetermined. Pro-BNP > 360 pg/mL was the only factor independently associated with likely cardioembolic stroke.
Conclusions: Pro-BNP levels higher than 360 pg/mL are associated with cardioembolic stroke and may be useful to reclassify undetermined strokes as of cardioembolic origin.

London Fashion Week has kicked off with more events and activities taking place all across London, for the fashion industry and public alike.
The UK's fashion industry is one of the country's greatest success stories, contributing £28billion to Britain's economy and supporting nearly 900,000 jobs. This becomes even more evident during London Fashion Week; a global showcase which welcomes guests from over 58 countries, promotes designer brands to an international audience of trade and consumers, and generates orders of over £100million each season.
Last night Prime Minister Theresa May, and Chairman of the British Fashion Council, Dame Natalie Massenet welcomed representatives from across the British Fashion Industry to a reception at 10 Downing Street last night, highlighting their importance on the international business scene. The Prime Minister welcomed apprentices from some of Britain's leading fashion businesses including Charlotte Olympia, John Smedley, Private White VC and RA Smart Holdings, as well as British Fashion Council scholarship recipients and graduate trainees from the Royal College of Art and Central St Martins. She showed the Government's commitment to support apprentices – in the fashion industry and beyond – in going as far as their talents can take them, whatever their backgrounds.
The first designers to present their new collection on the catwalk this morning, have been Catherine Teatum and Rob Jones, of London-based brand Teatum Jones, a label that has become recognised for its modern, polished and bold aesthetic. Their new collection has been presented at BFC Show Space; an explosion of delicate prints, lines, pastel colours and transparencies. Men and women have been equipped with backpacks, colourful raincoats and jackets, perfect for the British Spring and Summer.
Six other brands are also showing their new collections today: Eudon Choi, Bora Aksu, Ryan LO, DAKS, PPQ, with Ashley Williams closing the day's shows. You can now watch the catwalks' live stream at: londonfashionweek.com. For the first time this season Christopher Kane will also be live-streaming its show – visit ChristopherKane.com to subscribe for first access.

For more than 1,000 years, various pathways have wound across northern Spain to the tomb of the apostle St. James in Santiago de Compostela.
Over that time, countless pilgrims have walked along these paths, known in Spanish as "El Camino" ("The Way"). Some have walked as a way to show sorrow for their sins. Others as a way to grow closer to God. Still others simply as an extended social event or adventure to experience.
These same reasons continue to inspire the thousands of men and women who walk the Camino every year as its popularity among pilgrims is renewed and expanded.
Among them this summer were Archbishop Paul S. Coakley of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and Bishop James S. Wall of Gallup, New Mexico, who walked 212 miles Aug. 10-23 along the oldest of the pilgrimage routes, the Camino Primitivo.
It was their third time walking to Santiago de Compostela together, having done it also in 2012 and 2013.
"Doing the Camino is a very earthy experience," said Archbishop Coakley in an interview with Our Sunday Visitor. "You should see my feet right now — the blisters and bruises. It roots you in concrete reality. And that concrete reality, at least for me, is that I'm walking in the path of saints and sinners."
That great mix of people is something that Archbishop Coakley called "the river of humanity."
"You meet people from every walk of life, saints and sinners, believers and cynics, always kind of interacting with one another," he said. "It's really a microcosm of humanity and of the human experience."
As they walked each day, it was natural for these two bishops to turn their thoughts to St. James, of whom they are successors as bishops.
When he, according to tradition, proclaimed the Gospel in Spain some 2,000 years ago, there were no Christians there.
The increasingly secularized Spain that these two bishops encountered, they said, is more like what St. James experienced so long ago.
"I think it's appropriate to the whole notion of the new evangelization that this ancient way is being renewed in a land, Spain and Europe in general, that was once very Christian and is now very secular," Archbishop Coakley said. "Our times, especially in Europe, are not so very different from the apostolic times.
"We cannot presume that the first evangelization that took place nearly 2,000 years ago in Europe doesn't need to be renewed. It does need to be renewed."
"There are many people who walk along the Camino as if God does not exist," said Bishop Wall. "We had some really great opportunities to speak with people and to share the Good News with them."
Bishop Wall recalled, "We met a person on the last day who was 100 percent non-churched. Everything was new to her. We sat down to a meal with her and had the opportunity to listen to what she was looking for and also to witness to our faith. I think we planted some good seeds in her life, and I'm hoping that they'll come to fruition."
Bishop Wall was especially inspired in his pilgrimage by St. James since he is his patron saint.
"Each step really is a conscious choice to walk in those same footsteps that St. James walked in," he said. "And each step is a conscious choice to choose Christ to reign supreme in your life as St. James did."
As they took those steps, the bishops took in with the eyes of faith the beauty of the landscape that surrounded them.
"I was repeatedly astonished by the natural beauty of the places that we passed through," Archbishop Coakley said. "I got a lot of refreshment in that. It was just the experience of being immersed in creation, allowing the Lord to minister to me, in a certain sense, through the work of his hands in such a pure way."
He shared many of these experiences with people around the world by posting photos and short messages on Facebook.
"It was an opportunity to share a few things, some of the sights, some of the experiences of the Camino that I knew others would be interested or inspired by," he said. "It was a small way of perhaps sharing my own faith journey with others."
When he started on the pilgrimage this year, Archbishop Coakley at first appreciated the break from the daily routine and challenges of leading his archdiocese.
"I would start walking and I would think, 'What a blessing this is,' " he said. "I'd lift up my heart in prayer and gratitude to the Lord. All I have to do today is walk. No meetings. No appointments. No challenges except one foot in front of the next."
About a week later his body led him to a different perspective.
"We'd start the day's walk early in the morning before sunrise and I'd say, 'Oh my goodness. All I have to do today is walk,'" Archbishop Coakley said. "My feet were swelling. I had blisters. It was becoming a burden."
The daily highs and lows of walking along the Camino culminate in the arrival in Santiago de Compostela, which both bishops said was emblematic of being welcomed into heaven.
"You've invested so much," Archbishop Coakley said. "You've been looking forward to it for so many days. And to finally arrive is a great source of joy and reason to celebrate. It's wonderful to linger in the plaza in front of the cathedral and to see pilgrims arriving and their expressions of joy, relief and celebration."
"We talk about our earthly pilgrimage, which we ultimately desire that it ends in the new and eternal Jerusalem in heaven where there will be perfect joy," Bishop Wall said. "Walking the Camino and arriving at our goal gave us a foretaste of the perfect joy that we'll receive in heaven."
Returning to their dioceses after walking along the Camino, the bishops say the pilgrimage will have an effect on the way they lead the people under their care.
"It certainly has shaped me and affirmed and confirmed elements of my own faith and spirituality," Archbishop Coakley said. "I think it has a way of grounding me. I hope that is something that I'm able to express and transmit to others."
Having walked along the Camino three times now, Bishop Wall encourages others to consider doing it and thinks he'll do it again in the future — but not for a while.
"Right now, if you were to ask my feet, they'd say, 'No,'" Bishop Wall said with a laugh.

I just spent two days with my good friend Whitney. Whitney is a Lolita.
Lolita: a Japanese founded lifestyle and fashion subculture based on the Victorian and Rococo era ways of life.
As a Lolita one is expected to be a self-assured young lady who presents herself with dignity and grace and as such encourages those around her to do the same.
"I have chosen to be a Lolita because of my unwavering connection to the old ways of behavior, lifestyle and dress. I was originally part of a very similar style called Aristocratic, or more commonly known, Neo-Victorian, steam punk style that was far more dark than Lolita." Whitney went on to explain her shift from the one style to her current. "Lolita, I discovered had the same elements, but rather than dwelling in the darkness of maturity that Aristocratic style held, Lolita made life like candy."
"Being a Lolita has taught me to hold myself high as a woman. To not take life too seriously, but to celebrate it with beauty."
So to celebrate we had a photo shoot with some of the branches of the Lolita style!
Aristocratic Lolita: mature lady's style of the 1800's, Industrial Revolution
Sweet Lolita: most popular in Japan, bubblegum, girlie
See: http://www.babyssb.co.jp/
Country Lolita: Dorthy & Anne inspired, braids, gingham
Shiro Lolita: "shiro" is Japanese for "white", angelic, pure
Gothic Lolita: more common in the west, dark, black & white, some red
Classic Lolita: floral & tea cup patterns
And then we had tea!
Special thanks to Lilly and August, Whitney's dolls who joined in on the fun :)

None of these are really "lolita." Don't get me wrong though, all of these outfits are cute in themselves, and you can ware whatever you feel comfortable in, just dont call them "lolita." Most of these are just made out of ordinary clothes. The only dress that looks slightly lolita is the "gothic" lolita, but even that appears to be ordinary clothing and even looks a bit ita. To get more of the lolita style try to not chose clothing with low neck lines as loli is innocent and modest. Im sorry to say this but I'm posting this comment for helpful, constructive criticism. Good luck on future outfits.ReplyDelete

Built-ins are not only beautiful and functional, they personalize a home. Constructed to fit the odd nooks and crannies of a residence, they provide customized storage for the owners� interests.
The modern farmhouse of Franz and Annelies Leuthardt outside of Smithville is a prime example. Various sizes of navy, cobalt and azure rectangles take up an entire wall of the top floor. Together the blue cabinets and drawers resemble the abstract work of Piet Mondrian. Inside, the artful cabinets hold the normal stuff of life: extra pillows, bed linens and fitness equipment.
Built-ins are a good idea for any home, experts said.
For starters, they�re a strategic defense against clutter, architect Sarah Susanka said. She believes in the mantra of William Morris, one of the founders of the Arts and Crafts movement: �Do not keep anything in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.�
Built-ins definitely saw their heyday in Arts and Crafts homes, many of them tiny bungalows. They made the most of every inch. Demand for built-in cabinetry has increased with the proliferation of lofts, which typically don�t come with much storage space. And because of the new standard of flat-panel televisions, more homeowners are requesting built-in cabinetry to integrate the electronic components into the room.
�Built-ins eliminate the need for having lots of furniture in a house, which can make a room feel cramped,� said Paul Gross, owner of Wildwood Construction in Blue Springs. �Everyone is trying to simplify and streamline their lives, and homes and built-ins help do that.�
Gross and his son-in-law, Jason Patterson, have designed and constructed many built-ins, including the usual bookcases and drawers for DVDs.
But they�ve worked on many special projects, including extra-long file cabinets that take advantage of unused attic space as well as special jewelry pullouts and drawers � the typical jewelry box just doesn�t cut it for fashionable chunky, beaded necklaces.
Built-ins start at about $400 per linear foot, roughly the same price as a high-quality piece of furniture. When Chris Hamer of O�Fallon sits down with prospective clients, he asks how long they plan to live there.
�If they say they�re going to move in a year and a half, I don�t take on the project because they�re not going to enjoy it,� said Hamer of Maes-Hamer Studio. �Obviously, they can�t take built-ins with them. They become part of the house.�
Hamer, a sculptor, constructed dramatically illuminated built-ins for his own home. People liked them so much that they requested them for their own homes, and now that�s what he primarily does for a living.
�I love that people tell me they�re beautiful,� Hamer said. �They tell me they�re art.�

Assistant Professor of English
Office: Brock Hall 3127
Email: email@example.com
Phone: 423.236.2346
BA in English, Burman University (Canadian University
MA, University of Toronto
Ph.D. in English Literature, University of Edinburgh
I was raised in Alberta, Canada, where I also completed my undergraduate studies in English. Upon completing my M.A. degree, I was employed as a Teaching and Research Assistant, before accepting contract teaching positions at Burman University and Red Deer College. The daily engagement with students in the creative, dynamic learning environment of the classroom inspired me to enrol for my doctorate. During my Ph.D. in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh, my research focused on contemporary Scottish literature and theories of memory and post-nationalism. While working as a Postgraduate Tutor in Scottish and English literature, I completed my doctoral thesis Forms of Memory in Late Twentieth and Twenty-first Century Scottish Fiction and was shortlisted for the G. Ross Roy Medal for Excellence in Postgraduate Study in Scottish Literature. Following graduation in 2011, I accepted a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities, where I worked as Research Officer for Scotland's Transatlantic Relations (STAR) Project. I also served as Co-Director of the Scottish Universities' International Summer School (SUISS) and remain an advocate for international education. I taught and lectured for several institutions, including Red Deer College, Burman University, the University of Edinburgh, SUISS, and Arcadia University, before accepting the position of Assistant Professor of English at Southern Adventist University in January 2015.
Having studied in Canada, England, and Scotland, my educational wanderlust extends beyond literature. I enjoy working with students who are not only in the English Department, but also those who are in the Southern Scholars program and across the university campus. In my free time, I love to travel and engage in all forms of music, both playing and listening.

What is Summerhill like? Well, for one thing, lessons are optional. Children can go to them or stay away from them--- for years if they want to. There is timetable--- but only for the teachers.
The children have classes usually according to their age, bue sometimes according to their interests. We have no new methods of teaching, because we do not consider that teaching in itself matters much. Whether a school has or has not a special method for teching long division is of no significance, for long division is of no importance except for those who want to learn it. And the child who wants to learn long division will learn it no matter how it is taught.
Strangers to this idea of freedom will be wondering what sort of madhouse it is where children play all day if they want to...
[story of a student]
This story shows that learning itself is not as important as personality and character. Jack failed in his university exams because he hated book learning. But his lack of knowledge about Lamb's essays or French language did not handicap him in life. He is now a successful engineer.

"Shoemaker was among the passengers aboard a replica of the historicschooner, America, as it made its inaugural whale-watching voyage during gray-whale migration season. The yacht is modeled after an 1851 sailboat with the same name that represented the United States in the first world's fair in England, said Warren Allan, director of marketing and sales for Dennis Conner's America's Cup Experience. Sailing's most prestigious competition, the America's Cup, was named after the original sailboat, Allan said.
The replica schooner, which is privately owned, was built in 1995 and has been based in San Diego since 2006.
The America will make daily whale-watching trips through March 29, and the boat is available for private charters the rest of the year. The whale-watching trips launch from a dock behind the Maritime Museum of San Diego downtown on North Harbor Drive. The trips are being promoted as "green" whale-watching tours because the sailboat is powered largely by wind and uses less fuel than traditional power boats."

If you are a budding Titchmarsh, Monet, Attenborough or Bailey, Tatton Park's 'Learning for All' programme has a course or workshop for you.
From lectures, talks and tours to practical sessions in pig keeping, getting the most from your camera or the skill of the longbow - there are now over 90 learning activities taking place at Tatton throughout 2015.
The rich diversity of the historic estate in rural Cheshire East provides a fantastic inspiration for and backdrop to these participatory events. Many are centred on the 2,000-acre parkland. Ever popular is the opportunity to get up close and (not quite) personal with Tatton's famous deer herd on one of Tatton's award winning deer walks and feed and trailer rides.
Following on from the success of previous garden related courses there are opportunities to develop new skills including container planting, vegetable growing, preserving and Christmas wreath making. There are also two special opportunities to explore the iconic 100 year old Japanese Garden with Tatton's talented garden team.
The popularity of previous pig keeping and poultry rearing courses has prompted the highly knowledgeable farm staff to share their skills once more in courses about grooming the farm's heavy horses, tending to the pigs, looking after poultry and keeping their flocks of sheep.
Mansion talks and tours in 2015 give an intriguing insight in to the way Christmas was celebrated in a Victorian house (both upstairs and down!) and the curious collection of Maurice Egerton, the last inhabitant of Tatton Park, who travelled the world acquiring all sorts of fascinating items. As part of this talk there will be an opportunity to see objects that are not normally on display. There are also activities for children in the Mansion including country house baking and chocolate making.
The evocative Old Hall provides the perfect setting for hands on living history courses which this year include longbow (for children and adults), two Viking mornings, survival skills courses for children and a myth and magic event.
The Old Hall will also play a fundamental role in the delivery of two key events in 2015 - 'Shakespeare Week' (in association with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust) and 'Tudors on Tour' (in association with Historic Royal Palaces.) Visitors can expect a range of exciting activities to coincide with these events including drama workshops, interactive storytelling, plays, talks and more!
Learning and Visitor Services Manager Laura Armitage said "We have a fantastic programme of workshops and courses for 2015 – there really is something for everyone. There are courses to suit every age group and many activities have been created specifically for family groups so that there are opportunities to learn together. Tatton's richness and diversity provides a wonderful resource for learning new skills, trying out something different and inspiring creativity. We have all the old favourites and are excited to be launching lots of new activities too. Come and join in!"
For full information about Tatton's programme of learning activities visit http://www.tattonpark.org.uk/ or call the education department on 01625 374428.

This impressive historic estate receives in the region of 850,000 visitors every year all of whom come to enjoy its Georgian mansion, Tudor Old Hall, award- winning gardens and 1930s rare breeds farm. The 1,000-acre deer park is home to red and fallow deer and the estate also boasts speciality shops, adventure playground, restaurant, Gardener's Cottage tea room and year-round events programme.
The Tatton Park Vision
The `Tatton Park Vision' is the park's 5 year vision for its visitor activities and aims to substantially develop its visitor experience by increasing the attractions and activities on offer. In delivering the vision the aim is to fully realise Tatton Park's potential and present the best possible experience for its current and new visitors in order to provide new and sustainable income to help manage and conserve the historic estate into the future. By 2016/17 it is expected that over 1 million visitors a year will enjoy this experience. This will be done through a programme of investment by Cheshire East Council and the attraction of new business. For more information about the vision visit

The Spare Heirs Society Cordially Invites You to Meet Ash Claughbane: The Imposter
Lady Evangeline Green is living a lie. To please her family, she masquerades as the perfect debutant...until she meets the wickedly charming Lord Crosby. With him, there are no rules. She's finally free to do as she desires-but freedom comes with a price, and Lord Crosby is not what he seems...
Ash is not Lord Crosby. He's a con artist, a noble Spare Heir living off his silver tongue. When the Green family ruined his, he swore he'd make them pay, and he never doubted his devotion to revenge...until he met Evangeline. Now, caught in a web of lies, torn between duty and desire, what's a con to do but deceive all of London and steal the one lady who dared match wits with the devil himself?

Mike Conley, Greg
Oden and Kosta Koufos
By Bill Smith
Conley started 46 games last year for one of the worst teams in the
league. He averaged 9.4 points 4.2
assists and 2.6 rebounds a game but averaged only 26 minutes a game. He had an up and down year but is playing in
the summer league to further refine his skills, develop more stamina and to get
a little more physical. He will be the
starter in 08-09 and should have a little more help. The team drafted O.J. (money in the bank at
USC) Mayo to play shooting guard. They
also added Marc Gasol as a back up center.
Oden did not play last year because of microsurgery on his right knee in
September. Anytime you hear microsurgery
you have to be concerned. However he was
busy in the community. He has already
started a foundation for under privileged kids and has been named to a White
House physical fitness commission. He
will be the starter when he gets totally healthy which should be sometime in
the first month of the season. The one
thing that the team will not do is to risk putting him back on the floor before
he is ready.
still rehabbing, but I'm ready to play," Oden told The Associated Press on
Wednesday while in Los Angeles
to attend the ESPY Awards. "I can work out, I can lift, no 5-on-5, no
3-on-3. That's where everything is going, towards me being able to play when
the season starts, but I'm ready."
Until then
as we reported earlier, Oden is taking a summer school biology class at Ohio State,
where he left after leading the Buckeyes to the 2007 national title game -- a
loss to Florida. "I'm still classified as a
freshman," the 7-footer said, grinning.
Being back on campus, though, is a constant reminder that he can't play
basketball just yet. Oden plans to
pursue a degree during his offseasons. He's undecided on a major, but he wants
to do something with food. "They don't
have a culinary degree at Ohio
State, so I figure
nutrition and then try to do something with that," he said. "I like
to cook, I like food." Asked his
specialty in the kitchen, Oden paused and said, "Hamburger Helper and tuna
Oden called
his rehabilitation "tough and long," but he said his teammates kept
him in the loop last season. "It wasn't
like I could even get down because I was always around the guys," he said.
"I feel like I'm part of the team."
In an
interview with Pulse Doug Gottlieb Oden said he has been working out getting
ready weighted 275 at OSU now 295 with mussel Bayless will help him
inside. Microfracture surgery 80-85
percent back. He said he has no pain but
is just uncomfortable. He has been
focusing on footwork , stamina and perfecting his bank shot.
Koufos steps into the Jazz that desperately needs a back up center. The two "vets" that backed up starter Mehmet
Okur combined for 1.6 points a game.
UCH! Koufos' offensive work
around the basket should give him a good chance for significant minutes in the
front line rotation by the middle of the season. The latest news on Koufos is that he will be
playing in the summer league.
Next Friday—NBA Summer league preview.

Yes today is my birthday. Having an IQ equivalant to a goldfish I naively believed that I was going to have a good day. For once I got to start work late which meaning the chance to sleep in. Of course my phone woke me up at a stupidly early hour, spewing congratulations and well wishes from friends and family.
What is really annoying about this is the fact that I just don't understand it. What are you congratulating me for ? The fact that I was born ? I hate to burst your bubble but I really had nothing to do with it. Go congratulate my parents for that achievement. If you want to congratulate me, make it for something that I have actually done.
Perhaps you are congratulating me on the fact that I have survived this long. Are you telling me that I am so stupid that you assumed that I would be dead by now. Admit it, you thought that I would have decapitated myself on a ceiling fan, licked an electrical outlet or just plain forgot to keep breathing by now didn't you.
Eventually I gave up on any lingering thoughts of staying in bed, got up and booted up the computer. Unsuprisingly my facebook was plastered with seemingly insincere well wishes. Even a forum I frequent realised that it was my birthday this year and started a thread just for it. I suppose it was too much to ask of the internet gods to take the site down for a couple of days like they did last year.
Seriously, what is the point of this odd custom, the birthday ? I just don't get it. The only purpose for the whole scenario, that I can tell, is to boost the economy by forcing people to spend money on cards and stupid novelty gifts.

GM Jim Barker says DE Khalif Mitchell will be at camp
Article publié le
After trying to trade him back to a West Division team, Argonauts GM Jim Barker expects former CFL all-star defensive lineman Khalif Mitchell to be on the field when training camp opens in less than three weeks.

This loose retelling of HIGH SIERRA, finds Joel McCrea in the Bogart character as a criminal who's hired for a big robbery job, but troubled by his growing conscience. Along the way to meet his new partners, he foils a stagecoach robbery and takes a liking to a old man and his beautiful daughter. Once he arrives at the ghost town where his team is waiting for him he finds them not to his liking and even worse is there's a woman with them. As expected the tension among the men grows and the robbery doesn't go as planned. Now on the run from a bloodthirsty posse McCrea has to man some quick decisions.
Strong cast and a great director, but for whatever reason COLORADO TERRITORY didn't do a whole lot for me. It was an entertaining watch, but I felt like I'd already seen all of this before...probably because I did in HIGH SIERRA! Also I didn't care for seeing McCrea as a bad guy. I understand that he was having a change of heart, but he's still a criminal and a killer.
Worth watching, but unfortunately it doesn't bring anything new to the table.

It was bitter and snowy outside but cosy in the auditorium. We could've struggled a bit with just the four of us, but two tracks in we got a round of applause from a guy in the auditorium seats, who turned out to be a rapper. We encouraged him to join in and it set the tone for the session. I had a slight meltdown with the levels at one point, which were peaking weirdly. You can hear when it happens. All in all it was great to work with Droid, who soaked up the different moods and reflected them back ...

WASHINGTON (AFP) - US Secretary of State John Kerry headed Tuesday to India on a mission to break the ice with new Prime Minister Narendra Modi and repair a rut in a once warming relationship.
For the past two decades, the world's two largest democracies have described themselves as natural allies as they share similar concerns over China's rise and Islamic extremism. But incidents including the US arrest of an Indian diplomat last year sent relations plunging to their lowest point in years.
The Hindu nationalist Modi had been treated as a pariah by Washington before he led his party to a decisive victory in April-May elections.
Ahead of his visit, Mr Kerry said that Modi's strong mandate opened up new possibilities for cooperation on issues from boosting trade to fighting climate change.
"This is a potentially transformative moment in our partnership with India, and we're determined to deliver on the strategic and historic opportunities that we can create together," Mr Kerry said.
For some observers, Mr Kerry's three-day trip is in itself a sign of India's importance. He has focused much of his tenure on crises in the Middle East and returned just Sunday from a gruelling, unsuccessful mission to end the Gaza conflict.
"It is significant that the secretary is able to stick to making time for the Strategic Dialogue with India when there are literally parts of the world in flames," said Alyssa Ayres, a former State Department official.
Despite strong ties between their people, the Indian and US governments have frequently been at odds. After tensions during the Cold War and US sanctions over India's 1998 nuclear tests, former president Bill Clinton began reconciliation efforts. Former US president George W. Bush pushed through a landmark nuclear cooperation accord with India. But some Indian commentators saw President Barack Obama as less interested in the relationship, even though he threw US support behind New Delhi's leading goal of winning a UN Security Council seat.
Relations took a sharp turn for the worse when US authorities in December arrested an Indian diplomat on allegations of mistreating her servant, leading New Delhi to retaliate against US personnel.
Mr Modi has little reason for gratitude toward the United States. In 2005, Washington refused him a visa over allegations of turning a blind eye to anti-Muslim riots as leader of the state of Gujarat.
Other nations were quicker to embrace Mr Modi, with British and French ambassadors courting him well before the election. Shunned until recently in the West, Mr Modi traveled to Japan and China. D.H. Pai Panandiker, head of the Indian think tank the RPG Foundation, said that the United States was seen as unresponsive by cold-shouldering Modi for so long.
And the diplomat's arrest showed that "America does not appreciate the sensitivities of India. And therefore, there is anger in India. There is a sense of resentment," Mr Panandiker said.
Mr Obama has invited Modi to the White House in September. Mr Modi does not appear eager to play up grudges and instead has shown pragmatism, meeting in his first months in office with the leaders of Pakistan and China despite his past hardline stances.
But in an unexpected rift ahead of Mr Kerry's visit, Mr Modi's government warned it may hold up a global customs pact that must be ratified by Thursday unless the World Trade Organisation approves India's food subsidy programs.
US Trade Representative Michael Froman, without mentioning India by name, said Tuesday that blocking the pact would be "short-sighted" and put at risk "the credibility of the WTO as an institution."
Ms Ayres, now a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, said that India's stance "cast a huge and very different kind of shadow" on trade issues, especially as Mr Modi has billed himself as an economic reformer. India buys grain at inflated prices to sell at subsidised prices.
The programme is important for India's hundreds of millions of poor, but rich nations say that it distorts trade.

So in this weather lately, I haven't been wearing any make-up if I've just been at home with Sienna. But on days where we do need to venture out for a few hours, this is the go-to look I have been wearing. It's simple, summery and soft.
The Ginvera BB cream is something I am trying out and a full review will be coming, at the moment all I will say is it's the only BB cream I have got on with. I then conceal with my Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch under my eyes. Next, I bronze my face up with Fake Bake's Bronzer (review here) and I use this all over my face so it acts as my setting powder too. To add a healthy colour to my cheeks I have been loving Natural Collection's Blush in Pink Cloud. With the skin done, I add a base to my eyelids in the form of Barbara Daly's eye primer to ensure my eyeshadow doesn't crease in the humidity. The eyeshadow I have been loving is this beauty rose gold colour from Avon's Chic Glamour palette. Perfect on it's own all over the lids, it gives a gorgeous colour and some shimmer. I finish off the look with a good coat of mascara; Maybelline The Falsies of course and a slick of Nivea's soft rose lip balm.
What products are you loving for the summer? Do you love any of these?

Some observers have claimed that one of the contributing factors in the space shuttle Challenger disaster was the use of Power Point to communicate complex engineering considerations to decision makers.
It didn't work it is suggested.
This can be attributed, at least in part, to the problem of the medium, reminiscent of Marshall McLuhan's quip "the medium is the message". Powerpoint constrains, guides and
'encultures' communication to the minimal 'points' that can be crammed into a slide. It doesn't suit the complexities of argument and judgement, but only the conclusion, or the way stations of thinking; not the reasoning itself. It lead, in the case cited, to the fatally wrong decision.
There are plenty of good ways to use Powerpoint, and that's to provide graphic information: relevant images, graphs, and so on. But only in context, and not just because you can. So I was pleased to read this in the Fin Review the other day:

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) � An anti-abortion activist pleaded not guilty yesterday to opening fire on late-term abortion provider George Tiller after a witness gave chilling testimony that he saw the alleged shooter point a gun at the Kansas doctor�s head before pulling the trigger.
Scott Roeder, 51, also is accused of threatening two ushers who tried to stop him at Tiller�s church during the May 31 shooting that reignited passions in one of the nation�s fiercest social debates.
Roeder, dressed in a jacket and tie but shackled at his ankles, pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and aggravated assault charges after witnesses described seeing him shoot Tiller and speed away from the Wichita church. Roeder�s public defender entered the plea on Roeder�s behalf and the Kansas City man did not speak during the hearing.
A judge ordered Roeder held on $20 million bond and set a trial date in Sedgwick County District Court for Sept. 21. If convicted, Roeder is likely to face life in prison. Prosecutors have said they will not pursue the death penalty, and Roeder would be eligible for parole after 25 years.
Tiller had been the target of relentless protests at his Wichita clinic, where he practiced as one of the nation�s few providers of late-term abortions. He was shot in both arms by an anti-abortion activist in 1993.
During yesterday�s hearing, an usher at the Wichita church, Gary Hoepner, testified that he and Tiller were chatting in the church foyer when a man walked through the door, put a gun to Tiller�s head and shot him. Hoepner identified the man as Roeder.
Hoepner said he wasn�t sure whether the weapon used to kill Tiller was real until he saw him fall to the ground. He said he followed the shooter out of the church but stopped after Roeder warned him.
