...as Nana Ama changes plan
By: James Harry Obeng
Whoever thought Judge Kwame Dzokoto, as quite the maverick he has proven to be over the past years, was above every task in flirting, and got it all wrong.
The past few days have showed the true him, against the unbending posture he has worn over the years in respect of how he goes about with his unquenchable, niggling craving for women.
Also, to that Dzokoto is close — fisted is an aged- old fact, at least to his lady victims. It remains nothing but the truth that he does not give out money to women (or girlfriends) that easily without expecting a 'gesture' or 'treat' in return.
He would rather prefer to parade his girlfriends around in his18th century automobile, and take them to the posh restaurants in town, than to give them 'physical' cash. This, however, takes only ladies of many brains to squeeze money out of his pockets.
Kwame Dzokoto will simply not prey to any plan (or strategy) by any lady to get money from him without the lady first giving him 'something'. To him, it is untenable for any lady to reap what she has not sown; in so far as the lady is not prepared to dance to his popular tune of' bed- mastics'
This has been Dzokoto until last week. Now, there is a new Kwame Dzokoto; a new Kwame Dzokoto who weeps easily and is ever ready to dish out money to women upon the least request.
By reason of how more brainy and 'twisted' Nana Ama proved last week, Kwame Dzokoto wept and wept because he could not fathom why a lady he has spent so much on should gallantly hop into another man's car and off they go in his presence.
Nana Ama, no doubt, remains the most treacherous, cunning and 'fastest of all the men and husband poachers around. Koo Fori compares to Nana Ama's men — poaching capabilities.
She is slow, but sure, and can be trusted to win hands — down any honorary conferment of a doctoral in 'men — poaching,' if ever there was any such award for grabs.
Not long ago, she succeeded in coaxing Yaa Baby, her own cousin into believing that she (Nana Ama) was really the messiah to rescue her (Yaa Baby's) relationship with Bro Kofi from the danger posed to it by Boatemaa, another girl who describes herself as Bro Kofi's fiancée.
By so doing, Nana Ama got the backing of Yaa Baby to relocate to Bro Kofi's apartment as a means to block Boatemaa's chances of winning Bro Kofi, and thus offer Yaa Baby an upper hand in the race to Bro Kofi's heart.
However, the consequences are completely different stories for Yaa Baby to tell them better. Right now, Nana Ama has also become another cause of Yaa Baby's sleepless night, aside Boatemmaa.
In short, Nana Ama who came in as the messiah is no different from the devil (Boatemmaah) herself by allowing Nana Ama to move to Bro Kofi's apartment, Yaa Baby has got one more lady at hand to wrestle with for Bro Kofi her fiancé.
Nana Ama is really bad news and this is the basic reality Kwame Dzokoto missed out all when he decided to date her. Dzokoto should have known better, at least with his likes.
Now, Kofi Supa husband of Dela is close to luring Nana Ama from Dzokoto. And this has pushed Dzokoto to declare the money left in his bank account to Nana Ama, in an attempt to tame her for himself.
Dzokoto has promised to give Nana Ama any amount to rent a room of her choice, and has also asked her not leave him for any other man. How will Fafa, Dzokoto's other girlfriend, take this development and how much money is Dzokoto prepared to give Nana Ama? Find out how the drama unfolds, next week with Spectator Agoro.

The market is now well used to the value proposition that Kia routinely offers: simplicity of specification, a certain generosity with equipment and a renowned munificence with its seven years and 100,000 miles of transferable warranty cover for a competitive price, although no longer a genuinely exceptional one.
What's more, the market likes it and has responded with some very creditable residual values for the Sportage.
If you want cheap and cheerful from the new Sportage, you can still have it. While the new high-end derivatives trumpet self-parking and wireless smartphone charging solutions in a way that might attract the odd convert from the European semi-premium brands, a bog-basic Sportage offers alloy wheels, cornering foglights, heated mirrors, cruise control and a DAB radio all as standard – and it will cost you less than £18,000.
Kia even offers fixed-price servicing deals to complement its seven-year warranty package to make the ownership experience even easier to budget for.
In light of all of which, you might be inclined to overlook a couple of minor shortcomings on fuel economy and CO2 emissions – although we wouldn't be doing our job if we didn't shine at least a flicker of light on them in passing.

Eileen Howard Boone, CVS Health's SVP Senior Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility and Philanthropy and President, CVS Health Foundation, offers tips on developing successful corporate partnerships that deliver mutual impact.
Every year, not-for-profit organizations go through the painstaking process of establishing corporate relationships with the hopes of obtaining critical funding to advance their missions, while companies equally struggle to identify non-profits that help advance their positive social impact. For both, choosing the right partner that is a good fit can be a challenging proposition.
What if a social network existed where businesses and non-profits could easily find the right match? What profile information would be most critical for choosing a partner? In thinking about new business relationships, here are a few critical factors to consider when you 'swipe right' for nonprofit partnerships.
Identify common interests: It's important that the mission of your business and the organizations are aligned. At CVS Health, this means we work with those who will support us in our corporate purpose of helping people on their path to better health. We demonstrate this in various ways such as supporting cancer research, expanding access to quality health care and helping to deliver the first tobacco-free generation. The benefit of working toward a common goal has the power to do so much for so many who need it.
Look at credibility & reputation: Not all non-profits are created equal. Most do great work and make a difference in their communities, but some don't maximize the impact they can have. Use nonprofit rating tools and services to evaluate the giving of your potential partner so you are certain your company's charitable funding will be put to good use.
Impact one another: Before choosing a partner you must ask yourself if this partnership will be mutually beneficial. If the answer is no, then try again. Not only are you choosing a partner that you think can impact your company's mission but you must also think about if your work together has the ability to strengthen their mission as well. Through our multi-year partnership with the National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics (NAFC) and the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) we've awarded grants to local community health centers and free clinics. This partnership has made measurable and meaningful progress toward their goals of improving care coordination, managing chronic conditions and increasing access to care while also benefitting our mission of increasing access to quality care to those who need it most.
Think strategically: When you look for a nonprofit partner, it's imperative that you choose one that aligns with your overall business strategy. For CVS Health, following our decision to stop selling tobacco in 2014, we increased our support of organizations that provided smoking cessation services across the country. Since that time, we've brought multiple partners together to deliver the first tobacco-free generation as part of our Be The First initiative. The benefit of working toward a common goal has the power to do so much for so many.
Seek buy-in from those around you: CVS Health has experienced significant growth over the past few years, and as a result, offers a suite of integrated services that help patients across the United States. We work with the leaders of each business unit to identify the needs of their stakeholders to ensure that our giving is reflective of the broader communities we serve.
The best partners are the ones who support each other and work together to make each other's goals become reality. We choose to collaborate and work with organizations that have a proven track record of making a positive impact in their area of expertise. We value their work and in turn they value ours.

Research in Visualisation
Last night I had the pleasure of attending a talk by Kieran Baxter on the use of aerial photography for digital production, survey, contextual interpretation and visual storytelling at the Centre for Stewardship in Falkland. This topic has a lot of potential touch points with Linknode's HistoryLens project for reconstructive augmented reality and geospatial visualisation for landscape narratives.
Kieran is a PhD student at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design. His work to date has been in the use of high- and low-altitude aerial photography for data capture and image interpretation (human) and analysis (computational). Specifically he uses kites and cameras for low-level oblique images allows for cost-effective and high-resolution data capture. Using fixed camera settings and timer-based continuous shooting allows for a lightweight, transportable kit to be used on almost any site (albeit weather permitting!). Pictures can be post-processed for landscape context and also for 3D terrain modelling.
Linknode's GIality applications use digital terrain models (DTMs) from the Ordnance Survey (we have cloud-based databases containing national coverage of Terrain 50) and can incorporate other datasets and resolutions as required. Site specific DTMs are usually expensive to commission via techniques such as total station or GPS topographic survey, photogrammetry or LiDAR. For cultural and heritage sites Kieran described and demonstrated how multiple kite-captures images could be combined in Structure from Motion to create a point cloud and 3D model. In collaboration with Susie Green at UCL this approach has been used to create DTMs that can be visualised by other 3D systems.
There is future potential in further reconstructive 3D modelling and visualisation from the real-world data for interpretation and narratives. We hope to stay in touch with Kieran to explore how geospatial AR could provide new mobile access and in-field visualisation for the models.
More information on this project and Kieran's work can be seen at TopoFly (supported by the AHRC and Historic Scotland). Susie Green's ArchaeologySFM has technical information and further examples of her work.

We at BlackCommentator.com are very impressed
with the work done by the dedicated educators and activists of
the Teaching
for Change and Poverty and Race Research Action Council,
based in Washington, DC. They remind us that we do, indeed, have
activists in the field.
Too often, the teaching of the Civil Rights
Movement as a spontaneous
eruption of angry but saintly African Americans led by a few inspired
orators discounts the origins, the intellect and the breadth
that guided this complex social movement. Rather, strategic brilliance,
logistical messiness, exalted joy, heart-gouging sorrow, unbelievable
courage, sharp tactical conflicts and near-religious personal transformations
are all part of the very human story of ending formal racial segregation
in the United States. In addition, the civil rights story tends
to focus exclusively on the Black freedom struggle, ignoring the
struggles of all people for justice, in the US and internationally.
Teachers also face practical challenges in
presenting the full story. The bookends of the modern Civil Rights Movement are often
marked with the 1954 Supreme Court decision banning school segregation
and passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Teachers wonder how
to explore these 11 years of rich experience within the context
of nearly a century and a half since slavery was abolished, or
over a century since the Supreme Court sanctioned a separate but
equal doctrine, or the more than 500 years since Spaniards first
sought conquest. Elementary school teachers struggle to explain
the Movement to young children without being simplistic about the good and bad guys.
Humanities teachers wonder how best to use fiction, film, and art.
And all teachers struggle with the demands and restrictions of
state educational standards and testing.
A proper telling of the story of the Civil
Rights Movement includes the themes of education and economic
justice. Despite the many
lawsuits related to school desegregation and equity, little attention
is paid to the social purpose of education that is, creating
a place where youth can achieve excellence, prepare for leadership,
gain a critical analysis of power, and learn to uphold many cultures. Winning
economic justice is a parallel narrative to securing political
power. In fact, many Northern and Southern activists during the
Civil Rights Movement learned organizing skills through earlier
work with labor unions. In addition to these themes, a better approach
to teaching the Civil Rights Movement uncovers
and humanizes the stories of the many ordinary people who did heroic
things. Such an approach enables students to learn useful lessons
about their role in the world, to develop strategies to address
pressing problems in their lives and community, and to see themselves
as agents of change.
Lenses for Viewing the Civil Rights Movement
Ideally, the story should be viewed through several lenses youth, women, organizing, culture, institutionalized
racism, and the interconnectedness of social movements which
offer metaphorical magnifying glasses for understanding
the Movement.
Youth. Economic and social forces over the course of the
20th century reduced the public role of youth to little
more than consumers. With compulsory schooling laws and laws against
exploitive child labor, youth were encouraged to pursue schooling
rather than compete with adults in the employment market. Economic
shifts created a loss of unskilled jobs, making formal education
a greater necessity for everyone; one result is that youth now
spend many more years apprenticing for real life. The primary action performed
by contemporary youth is to shape a separate, media-driven culture,
generating billions of dollars for adult companies. Politically,
youth are expected to absorb and conform to adult society uncritically.
Yet, countless examples from the Civil Rights Movement show young
people exercising strategic thinking, challenging the authority
of white supremacy and of community elders seeking to protect them,
and altering the turn of political events at the local and national
levels. Contemporary youth need to understand themselves
as the makers of history, not passive consumers.
Women. Through organized religion, conventional
wisdom, and the law, women have often been discouraged (if not
from participation in public debate and from holding leadership
outside of female-only groups. Nevertheless, women have voiced
public opinion and exercised leadership from the earliest days
of European encounter, slavery and abolition, various wars, womens
suffrage, and womens liberation movements. In the Civil Rights
Movement, womens definitions of their own leadership worked with
and against the strategies for change expressed by African-American
and white men. Students need to see the distinctive womens ways
of shaping social change movements.
Organizing. The celebrity media culture became even more
pervasive with the widening popularity of television in the 1950s
and 1960s. The coincidental timing with the Civil Rights Movement
was both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, people worldwide
witnessed the unedited brutality of white supremacy and helped
put pressure on policymakers for change. However, mass media also
glamorized the product (the marches, the rallies, the arrests,
etc.) at the expense of the long, sometimes boring, and always
difficult process of organizing people to change their attitudes,
behaviors, votes, and spending habits. The creation of media stars
robs power from the collective efforts of the many hard-working
people who comprise social movements, even though it may be easier
to teach about charismatic individuals. Students need to learn
the mistakes, the second-guessing, and the conflicts among planners
and activists. Through the organizing lens teachers can
share the complex tactics and strategies that lie behind the observable
movements for change and the range of talents and personalities
required to achieve success. Such education is an essential part
of learning to be active participants in a democracy.
Culture. Enduring movements for social
change transform the landscape of peoples daily lives, or their culture. Culture
defines what (and who) is beautiful, funny, worthy of praise, nourishing,
comforting, and the source of our strength. Music, visual images,
language, clothing/hair, religion, and leadership styles are the
arenas of the most apparent transformations. The interracial and
cross-generational nature of the Civil Rights Movement created
new symbols and new uses for culture as a way to attract converts. Many
of these cultural shifts also influenced other social movements.
Through the lens of culture, students learn how familiar culture
(such as songs and call-and-response oratory) was used as an organizing
tool, how cultural expressions were central rather than peripheral
to building a community of activists, and how
the political and economic choices made by organizers and activists
were rooted in their daily lives, foods, songs, and worship.
Institutionalized racism. In the United
States, institutionalized racism promotes the ideology that:
(1) there are separate races
among humans; (2) that the white race is superior; and (3) that
this supremacy must be reinforced (violently, if need be) in schools,
banks, churches, the workplace, real estate agencies, law enforcement,
the judicial system, and other institutions that govern daily life,
with the purpose of exploiting other races and preserving privilege
for whites. Young people need to understand that racism
comes in faces other than the white-sheeted Klan member and the
law enforcement officer with attack dogs and fire hoses. They need
to know that eliminating legal segregation was only one part of
dismantling the continuing vestiges of institutionalized racism.
And, it is important to show that personal and organized resistance
to white supremacy by Indigenous Peoples, by people of color,
and by whites has existed since the beginning of European contact
in the Americas. Through this lens, students can see why dissent
is often difficult to exercise especially in the face of violence but
that it has always been part of the fabric of public policy and
Americans personal experience of what is called race.
Interconnectedness. Finally, as inspiring as is the story
of the Civil Rights Movement, it is interconnected to the historical
and ongoing human call for justice worldwide. In the 20th century
alone, Civil Rights Movement activists were connected with the
anti-lynching movement, Spanish civil war resistance, the labor
movement, tenant farmer organizing, Roosevelts New Deal, Indias
independence, the desegregation of U.S. military forces, African
liberation, the American Indian Movement, the Chicano movement,
the Asian Pacific Islander movement, the farmworkers movement,
the womens movement, the anti-war movement, the Free South Africa
movement, the Solidarity movement, liberation theology, the sanctuary
movement, gay liberation, the environmental justice, and, even,
some would argue, the tactics used in the anti-abortion and religious
fundamentalist movements. Teachers need to show the ways in which
many people within the various social justice movements were directly
inspired by one another and felt connections beyond their own racial
identities and national borders.
James Baldwin reminded us in his Talk to Teachers that in the
attempt to correct so many generations of bad faith and cruelty, teachers
and parents will face brutal and determined resistance. The teaching
and learning of this complex history is an active, not a passive,
process that should be supported by comprehensive materials. These
tasks resisting the pat story (in this case, of the Civil Rights
Movement), being energetic and visionary in the telling, and seeking
supplemental information are the essentials of excellent teaching.
To convey Civil Rights Movement history in this way helps teachers
be the midwives for this generation as it does what Grace Lee

the clouds pulled long and lean,
feathered like angel wings.
a one-legged dove
counting fifty hops from fence to fence
but flying most gracefully,
in thanks.
dust devils fleshing out the air,
a fly arriving on a horse's ear,
children playing in a yard somewhere.
someone looking for their dog.
butterflies waltzing with the wind
and songbirds on tour.
clever rabbits grasping straws
that fall like leaves from towers of hay.
the sky the bluest eye you've ever seen,
twinkling with the joy of unborn stars.

From the WSJ:
I stated several times in the comments that the CDS market may very well lead us into the next serious leg down. Many of the guys who wrote these either don't have the cash to pay up or are wrapped up in hedges using CDS which will easily get @#$@ed up once one leg of the hedge falls.
Stocks were unable to hold onto Tuesday's 400-plus point rally in the Dow industrials and attendant rallies in other indexes, and steadily marched lower through the afternoon, until news of a lawsuit filed by Merrill Lynch against a unit of bond insurer Security Capital Assurance, alleging the company is trying to avoid obligations of up to $3.1 billion under seven credit default swaps. Merrill's own CDS widened on the news, moving to 250 basis points from 210 basis points, according to Phoenix Partners Group, and the stock market dove, with the Dow giving back a good lot of the previous day's massive rally.

If you happen to be like almost half of all Americans, you take at least one particular supplement to enhance your overall health. As a nutrition and dietetics student for the previous 4 years, on my way to becoming a registered dietitian, I did a thorough study of multivitamin and mineral supplements. And most crucial of all, the existing consumers enjoy this best multivitamin brand with an approval rating of more than 97%, you can read some of them by clicking the link provided above.
Some are produced specifically for guys, some are produced just for women, and some are for men and women over the age of 50. Others are for men and women who live an active way of life, or need to have more power, or have distinct overall health rewards in mind (heart overall health, colon well being, and so on.). My opinion is that multivitamins may in fact stop individuals from deciding on more nutrient dense foods in their diet regime and continue undesirable eating habits, using a multivitamin as false insurance coverage. For instance, women demand higher calcium and vitamin B6 levels than males while men tend to demand greater magnesium levels.
I mean, with other supplements, folks are obsessed with studying if they really ought to take them, what their rewards and side effects are, and figuring out what brand is best for them. Pregna-Strategy is particularly formulated for all stages of pregnancy and breastfeeding and the formula is best to help preconception preparing for females also. Fertile Woman One Everyday Multivitamin is excellent for preconception health for females and we like MegaFood's Men's 1 Day-to-day Multivitamin for males. There is no multivitamin on the market place nowadays that compares to Daily Energy Several Vitamin.
There are numerous subtle differences in nutritional needs not only in guys and girls, but also primarily based upon a person's age. Most crucial of all, this best multivitamin for athletes is produced from only one hundred% all-natural ingredients that have been confirmed to improve your physical, overall health and mental functionality. No, the amounts in the multivitamin are a little low and it is a natural" multi derived from yeast. Even so, most experts say there is no harm in taking a daily multivitamin and it might support with nutrient balance if, for instance, you cannot stand consuming your veggies, or consume a restricted diet for whatever explanation.
Folic acid and iron — crucial nutrients for all girls — become even more essential throughout pregnancy.

Example text
John Middleton Murry is willing to take Dostoevsky very seriously indeed; he seems even eager to risk nakedness and cold. His enthusiastic hailing of the Russian writer, as 'a phenomenon which has lately burst upon our astonished minds, [. ] towards which an attitude must be determined quickly, almost at the peril of our souls,'40 implies a welcoming of the impossibility of a comfortable relationship between literature and living. 41 It does this first by destroying temporality; with that destruction a viable relation between fiction and life is undone: A novel [.
18 Lily herself articulates it: One wanted fifty pairs of eyes to see with, she reflected. Fifty pairs of eyes were not enough to get round that woman with, she thought. Among them must be one that was stone blind to her beauty. 19 This secret sense, ghostly in its vacancy and profusion, follows closely the path of the flood of darkness which had earlier effaced body and furniture together. The idea that getting rid of the house will give us 'the person' and the 'complete' artwork disavows this alignment, where the aesthetic sense necessary to give us the person is the same destructive dark force that will cause the house to crumble.
45 'Writing fiction [. '46 34 Before Modernism Was Modernism is an effect of and a response to this. 47 But the sense of something gone wild, the anxious or exhilarated sense of the anarchic threat of market expansion and literary speculation, is lost in his immensely productive account of the relation between the textual development of modernism and the structure of the reading public. He loses the sense of the why of modernism, the sense clearly there in Woolf's demand for the rescuing of Mrs Brown from buildings and Mr Bennett.

How do we change the culture of mental health in the workplace?
Here are five things we know already…
- Directly or indirectly, 9 out of 10 people are affected by mental ill health.
- They can impact anyone, at any time and sometimes for no apparent reason.
- On average, poor mental health costs UK businesses £1,500+ per employee per year.
- There are still stigmas around mental health and we often discriminate against them, whether we mean to or not.
- It can change but too little is being done.
I'm Peter. I'm a professional in the field of mental health prevention. I want to explore five ways we can change the culture of the workplace.

The Concern Leadership Network (CLN) is a community of motivated leaders, advocates, and influencers who are bringing about positive and lasting change to families living in extreme poverty around the world. Our members are creative, caring, and inspiring individuals who help Concern increase awareness and raise funds. Today, meet Concern marathon finisher, and CLN member, Caoimhe Greene.
What is your current profession?
I am a Director of Sales at AKA, a luxury hybrid hotel which focuses on long term stays. I studied hospitality at Shannon College of Hotel Management, and originally moved to New York to work for the Waldorf Astoria. I have been at AKA for almost two years.
What's your cause? What is it that prompts you to make a difference?
I was fortunate enough to grow up in a family that instilled the importance of social service in the world. My grandmother moved to Tanzania when she was in her early 70s for a few years to help those in need. Since her return, she has inspired me to give back and to continue my family's history of charitable work.
When did you learn about Concern? How did you get involved?
I learned about Concern when I was a young child. My family has always supported the organization and I took part in many 24 hour fasts in both primary and secondary school to help raise money for the charity. Once I moved to New York, I had the pleasure of meeting Sinéad Naughton who encouraged me to become a CLN member.
Why did you join the Concern Leadership Network?
I joined because I feel passionate about the work the charity does in the underprivileged corners of the world. I went to my first CLN event over two years ago and was moved by the presentation they shared, and even more so by the huge impact we can make by lending a helping hand.
What are your goals within, or for, the CLN?
My goal is to encourage more young people to get involved with Concern and to raise awareness of the fantastic work they do.
Are you working on any CLN projects right now?
Earlier this month, I raised $3,000 for Concern by running the New York Marathon. My next project will be to try increase numbers at the Concern Run in Central Park next year and hopefully convince more people to take part in the New York Marathon for Concern.

Christmas Markets in my Motorhome
So, it is coming up to the time of year when I start thinking about travelling and visiting Christmas markets in my motorhome. It is something I have been doing for a few years now and I really enjoy. I started with visiting the Christmas Markets in the UK, however my love of travel was not satisfied with the short distances, so I moved on to Belgium. Bruges is an amazing place to visit over Christmas. The market is located all around the town, the main square as an ice ring, and the pubs are cosy with log fires. There is a motorhome area not far from the town plus campsites, however if you are cheeky enough, like me, you can get away with parking in the old town itself. I parked a two minute walk into the square last year, and stayed a couple of days, however if it is possible this year, only time will tell.
Another favourite is the markets along the Rhein, especially Rudesheim am Rhein. This little village, famous for its käthe wohlfahrt shop, cable car number 76 which Elvis was supposed to have been on in the song "Pocketful of Rainbows" and its Christmas Market is a fantastic place to visit over Christmas. The stalls are set around the town and the bars and souvenir shops are open late and offer a large variety of goods. I have been visiting for a few years and each year, they have a different colour Gluhwein mug, which I have been collecting, silly I know, but it reminds me of all the good times I have had there.
This year I am unsure of where to visit. With so many amazing destinations and markets, it is a hard choice. Why not leave me your suggestions and tell me where you will be visiting and your favourite Christmas markets you have visited. Maybe it will inspire others to try it out.

As part of a wider project to bring the Castle to life for new and existing audiences, 20/20 created an exhibition in the Castle's Crypt that showcases the ghosts as well as the castle's history and resident bats.
Step inside the Crypt and it appears as any other store room would, but take a closer look and the castle's hidden history, myths and unusual inhabitants start to come alive. A spooky atmosphere is created through an audio exhibit documenting real life ghost stories told by the castle's staff and residents. Using a black light torch, visitors can also find hidden messages written in UV ink on a collection of photos and sketches, and a shadow theatre enhanced by a selection of props is a fun interactive for children.
The immersery, audio-visual experience is continued into the bat room. A batcam monitor shows live footage of the bat roosts in the chapel and a virtual bat roost has been created by projecting archive footage from the batcam into an alcove. Despite budget and listed building constraints, the Crypt – an empty, dark room that once confused and disappointed visitors, has been transformed into a truly sensory visitor experience.

Not Smart Enough for Theology
Christine | All Campuses
"My friends bought the lie that they weren't smart enough to take a theology class. Paralyzed by fear, they entered cautiously. Then it happened! As the teaching blossomed in their understanding so did they. The concern was never about getting an A, rather getting IT! Now we're bold, confident, and equipped to talk to anyone at any time about the most beautiful narrative that has the power to pierce and transform ANY life. The harvest is ripe, and we're humbly equipped to gather from it with boldness and compassion."

It was with a heavy heart and teary eyes that I pulled away from the Hernandez farm headed for Oaxaca City today. In six short days I'd grown quite an attachment to the whole family in Santa Cruz Nexila again. I'm sure that I could have spent my whole winter there living that rural subsistence lifestyle. Homemade food made fresh daily over open fire. A slow constant buzz of activity with always a task waiting to be finished. But my journey must continue...
After my run-in with the Gestapo in Acapulco, I was really looking forward to getting to my cousin-in-laws farm. I bid a quick 'see you later' to my new moto friend Ben in Puerto Escondido. (He was nice enough to follow me to the ATM to make sure I could withdraw some more money to make it up into the mountains.) He told me to take it easy riding into the hills. He warned that the roads quickly deteriorate and that the potholes could catch a guy off-guard. He also clued me in that within 50 miles I'd be close to 6000 feet above sea-level. This was welcome news as I knew that with the elevation gain would come a temperature drop. I was growing weary in the sweaty humid heat of the coast, so some cooler weather riding was comforting news.
It was Thanksgiving Day after all, and with much to be thankful for I gassed it into the hills. The constant curves and astonishing scenery pushed the thoughts of the Policia far from my mind. I took in the everchanging beauty with every turn, loving the coolness that came on the higher I rode. The trees became taller. The vegetation more varied. At one point corn grew alongside banana trees and jungle like vines draped down to the meadow grasses as I passed from the coastal ecology to the mountain zone. The road did in fact get worse. Dodging potholes added a whole new effect to the constant switchbacking up the mountainside. My very own video game. A KTM version of Frogger. 'Gigante' was loving it as much as I was and we rallied on up into the mountains. Our sybiotic relationship growing stronger with every mile.
Bob is on his way home north to Washington on a great journey from South America, where he'd shipped his bike months ago. Funny thing was... he was heading south. Even funnier, I was heading north. Each of us heading in the wrong direction from our destinations, we were equally thrilled with this road. We shared some enthusiasm, he shared some information from Central America and then in an act of great generousity, he gave me his maps for Belize, Guatemala, Panama and Colombia along with a couple of hostels to look for along the way. We chatted for a half hour or so, took a couple of pictures of each other for memory sake and each peeled off getting further from our destinations yet somehow closer to the goal.
I was really stoked to be out riding. The weather was great. The conditions were great and the scenery unbelievable. When I peaked over the pass, I came to a military checkpoint. The typical verbal exchange was had and I was waved off on my way. It wasn't until I'd ridden away that I realized that I'd misunderstood the soldiers question and had told him I was from Argentina. I guess those details didn't matter, or he understood what I was trying to say anyway. He warned me of the hundreds of cyclists and walkers who were on an annual pilgrimage to the shrine of the Virgin of Juquila.
A few short hours later and I was pulling up to the homestead in Santa Cruz Nexila. I had butterflies in my belly as I made the final turns into the valley I recognized from my visit last December. When I pulled up to the gate, I was surprised to see a new house in the process of being built behind the bamboo and tin-roofed structures I was expecting. Maria was up on the rooftop spreading out pumpkin seeds to dry and Carlos and the two youngest girls were there too. They opened the corrugated tin gate and waved me excitedly into the yard. I revved 'Gigante' up the rocky slope and pulled to a stop in the middle of all the barking dogs.
I wasn't even off the bike yet and I was getting hugs from Maria and the girls. Carlos came up and was studying 'Gigante' thoroughly. We exchanged greetings and they told me that Justino was out in the fields with the animals. Carlos helped me unload my bike before taking a walk through town with me. We caught up as best we could, he talking slowly and me doing my best to understand and communicate in return. We managed quite well really.
Justino was stoked when he walked through the gate and saw me there hanging out with the kids. He looked the part with his straw hat and deeply browned skin, machete in hand. We talked for awhile and then called home to my mom's place where we knew everyone would be together for Thanksgiving Dinner. We chatted with them and then retired to the cookhouse for some dinner of our own. Tasty fresh corn tortillas with a black bean stew unique to this region, lightly flavored with local Oaxacan chocolate used to make mole. I instantly remembered how much I love Maria's cooking.
A couple of days here and I'd forgotten my woes of tourist town struggle and the race down the coast to get here. Everything slowed way down. I was fortunate to get to spend a lot of time with all the family members. The town of San Andreas Zabache was having their annual Fiesta, so several nights we taxied down the 5 kilometers to drink beer in the streets, dance and watch traditional Mexican Rodeo bull riding.
When I found myself extremely hung over wishing that I could just die until the devils went away, Cayetano showed up outside my tent with a special tea. His wise old eyes, weathered hands outstretched grasping the steaming cup, seemed to tell all. It was our first individual encounter in both of my visits here. A shy old man in his early sixties, we'd finally found common ground in a hangover. Cayetano, Justino's father, is no stranger to the Mezcal, which when consumed pure as they do in the fields must create a crushing hangover. I could see in his eyes that he understood my pain. He handed me the tea and told me it was called "Te de Borrachos" or "Tea of the Drunks" made of a herb of the same name. It was bitter and astringent and sure as shit, my headache and stomach ache were gone in a half hour. I was out of the tent and in the afternoon sunshine. He walked around the corner and gave me a knowing smile with his hand tipped to his hat in a half wave half salute that is his customary salutation.
I bet in the 10 or so days that I've been around him we've exchanged less than 50 words. I realized this day, that it is just his shy quiet nature, and not a dislike for me the foreigner visiting his humble home. There was a deep comforting glow to his eyes that until that morning I'd never seen from under his straw sombrero. Maria his second wife shared that same comforting warmth along with a lack of much conversation. Mostly I'm sure this is due to my crappy spanish but also since spanish is a second language for them as well. They speak in a heavy slang dialect of their area. With each other they use their mother tongue of Zapoteco, a ancient indigenous language descended from pre-conquistador times. Much of their lifestyle aside from the electricity, water spigot in the yard and other various modernities is the same as the old days.
I spent several hours with Maria, mostly in silence husking corn and removing the dried kernels from the cobs to be ground down into masa for tortillas and tamales. Watching her make mole from scratch on a stone grinding table with a stone grinding pin, I realized that times have changed but very slowly here in the hills tucked away south of Oaxaca City. It is a true treat to witness this lifestyle and to have this connection to this wonderful family. It is one thing to do a traditional homestay on a farm in a foreign country. Another thing entirely to do a homestay with a family that is connected to mine through marriage. It is this connection, and their unending hospitality that makes it so hard to leave them. And so it truly was with heavy heart and teary eyes that I rode away from the farm this morning. A truer connection to real rural Mexico isn't to be found anywhere for me.


text: Hey guys, I wanted to get some opinions on this. I just picked up a 2002 GT, 4v swap, with a Vortech V2 supercharger. The previous owner ran 5w30 Royal Purple HPS in the car. I personally haven't ever been that big of a fan of anything but Mobil 1. On the next oil change, I want to switch over to the Mobil 1 full synthetic, run it for about 1000-1500 miles and short change it to get the rest of the residual RP/zinc additive out, and fill it back up with more Mobil. Anyone have any input on this? I just wanted some reassurance.

Coaching table tennis can be fun and rewarding, a guide to drills and exercises.
You will need a large enough room to be able to move freely to the sides and to be able to back up from the table so that you can take full advantage of all shots. In order to coach table tennis, you need to be familiar with the basics of the sport. Many people are surprised that there are various serves and strokes that serve different purposes and perform many strategies if used correctly. Table tennis is similar to tennis in basically only one area-the rules. Beyond that, table tennis is played quite different physically than table tennis because of the difference in rackets and balls and the size of the actually area that players compete upon.
When coaching table tennis, you will need to treat this sport as you would any other sport and begin the session with stretching. Side bends, toe touches, and leg stretches are just some of the stretching exercises that can be done before the actual competition begins. Even though table tennis is performed in a relatively small area as compared to many other sports, it still requires energy and exertion.
Once you have finished stretching, do a few minutes of jogging. Jogging in place is fine. You just want to loosen your muscles and limber up your body. The whole stretching and jogging phase can be anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes.
Now you are ready to instruct your players to warm up their forehands and backhands. You will probably want to spend at least 15 minutes on these warm up exercises. Have them practice hitting forehand shots to each other and then backhand shots. You can call out change ups to them every so many shots.
The forehand shot is fairly simple. Demonstrate to your players that the upper arm is not held directly against the body, but it is held close to the body. Hold the upper arm at around the 3 o'clock position and let your body turn at the waist to easily follow the arm motion. You will also shift the weight of your body to your right foot.
To make contact with the ball, you will shift back to your left foot and follow through with the swing, tilting the racket slightly toward the ceiling. Let the movement of your waist follow the swing and add additional power to the swing. When you actually make contact with the ball, the racket should now be turned away from the ceiling and angling slightly downward.
The backhand shot starts with movement from your left, and the racket is held in the opposite position of the forehand shot. This time the racket will be at the 9 o'clock position. You actually need to hit the ball when it is directly in front of you and move the racket in a slightly upward movement.
Have your players practice the motion of the swing slowly, so that you can instruct them as to how and where to position their arm, hand, and body. Then, have the players practice some drills so that you can critique their form.
Even though, you are playing in relatively the same area, footwork is still a very important part of the game. You will need to do at least 10 minutes of footwork drills. You can do these separately from the forehand and backhand drills, or you can combine them. It will probably depend on how comfortable and familiar your players are with the drills.
There are several footwork drills that can be done. You might have one player hit the ball repeatedly to the opposite sides of the table, and the opponent moves from side to side to return the balls. You can also call out change-up drills. Incorporate a pattern of hitting 2 balls to one side and one to the other, then changing up the pattern, so that the opponent is constantly moving in a decided rhythm from one side of the table to the other.
You can leave it up to the partner to decide where to direct the balls and have the opponent try to anticipate where the ball will land and return it successfully. You can also let the players practice the smash, also called the kill, return. Have one player hit the ball high and close enough to the other player's side so that the ball can be smashed across the net. They will need to hit hard enough but accurate enough so that the other player will have incredible difficulty returning it.
Some players may need specific drills to work specific areas of weakness. It will be your job as the coach to determine which player needs what type of practice and help that player improve in that area.
When you are done with all the drills, it will be time to start the game. The rules are fairly simple. To win the game, the first player, or couple in doubles, to score 11 points wins. The only exception to this is if the score is 10 to 10. Then, the player or players need to beat the opponent by 2 points to win the game.
The server will need to change every 2 points until the game is over. Players will lose points to their opponents if they fail to return a ball on a serve or a volley; if they hit the ball before it has bounced on their side of the table; if the ball bounces more than once on their side of the table; and if they fail to get the ball across the net into the opponent's area of play. (Note: If the ball hits the net during the serve, the serve is performed again, but if the ball hits the net during a return, then the return is good.)
Once your players have gotten the hang of simple serves and returns, have them work on pushes and blocks. In pushes, the ball is generally considered a defensive shot to stop the pace of the ball. Push strokes need to be executed gently, so that the ball is controlled. Pushes are used to put backspin on the ball. They are fairly simple with the right foot leading, and the ball being hit with the racket right after the bounce.
Blocks are used when the ball is coming fast and hard, and the player wants to control the situation. The ball needs to be hit immediately after it bounces, and the player that is returning the ball needs to adjust the racket angle to increase or decrease the spin depending on where the ball is located.
You can set the games up in various ways. You might match players together randomly, have the winners play each other, and the losers play each other, eliminating players along the way. You can also hold a doubles tournament in this same manner. You can place the players into teams, and have the players rotate play after they lose points. It is up to you. Please remember to always encourage your players, so that they want to improve.

State's jobless rate shows small decline. Utah Department of Workforce Services chief economist, Mark Knold said, "The growth rate of the past five months has been basically unchanged, with each month hovering in the 1.0 to 1.5 percent year-over range."

Strong week for economy raises optimism for 2011/Numbers boost optimism for 2011. Economists are predicting that hiring and even housing could pick up in 2011, maybe for than first thought. Growth "has improved as the year is coming to an end," said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics. Zandi expects the economy to grow at an annual rate of 3.5 percent in the October-December quarter and for 2011, he and other economists expect growth at roughly 4 percent, up from earlier forecasts of around 2.7 percent. With 4 percent growth, the economy would be moving closer to the pace of expansion needed to bring down unemployment. Growth of 5 percent is needed for a full year to lower the jobless rate by one percentage point. SLT/DN 12/17/2010 Jeannine Aversa and Christopher S. Rugaber, AP

Brokers could lose licenses. The clock is ticking for thousands of Utah mortgage licensees who may lose their ability to do their jobs if they don't meet new federal standards by year's end. According to the Utah Division of Real Estate, brokers must meet the federal Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System deadline for renewal and complete the required education and testing by Dec. 31. Only 5,200 licensees had transitioned onto the NMLS database by the May 31 deadline. Of those licensees, only 2,000 have requested renewal and completed the necessary requirements. The Division began 2010 with 9,027 mortgage licensees. Division Director, Deanna Sabey said, "To date, around 50 percent of our licensees have complied with the first step but are in danger of losing their license if they fail to renew their license and meet the NMLS requirements by the end of December."

More Foreclosures Expected in 2011. Brace yourself for another rough year in housing. The number of foreclosures is expected by many to increase in 2011 as more troubled mortgages work their way through the pipeline. Next year could be a peak year for foreclosures said Rick Sharga, a senior vice president at RealtyTrac, an online marketplace for foreclosure properties. The market is expected to tally about 1.2 million bank repossession is 2010, up from 900,00 in 2009. Sharga expects we will top both of those numbers in 2011. High housing inventory, along with high unemployment , will likely add up to continued depressed home prices in the year ahead in many markets, says Nichole Jordan, banking and securities industry practice leader for Grant Thornton, an accounting and business advisory firm.
