Russ Breault: It's in the heart of the individual believer
Date: February 25, 2014Author: Dan
journalism done well
Dan Linehan wrote an excellent short piece for the Mankato Free Press, Shroud of Turin presenter coming to MSU. It's a bit dated, of course, as the title reflected. It was published before Russ went to Minnesota State University to give his Shroud Encounter presentation. I just read the article. It's history now, so I'm copying most of it into the blog:
Russ Breault was writing for his college's student newspaper in 1980 when he was hooked by the mystery of the Shroud of Turin, and decided to write a story about it.
He went on to work in advertising, but the pull of the religious icon never left him. And he's never found a definitive answer to its central question: Did the shroud once wrap the body of Jesus of Nazareth?
"My own personal view is, I think it could be (authentic)," the Atlanta man said Thursday while briefly stranded in Florida due to the ice storm in his home state. "Let's explore the mystery. Let's find out what we know, and find out what we don't know."
"The mystery of the shroud is intriguing in general," [Joe Bakken, campus chaplain] said. "Is it the burial shroud of Jesus Christ or is it a hoax?"
He said the Catholic Church has not claimed it to be either. Instead, the church calls it an object of veneration, a reminder of Jesus' suffering, because its wearer was apparently scourged and crucified.
Breault likes that viewpoint.
"It's in the heart of the individual believer, if you want to believe it's authentic or not," he said.
Breault isn't a chemist or a forensic pathologist, but he's familiar with their work.
He said scientific analysis has shown that the shroud belongs to someone with puncture wounds indicating its wearer was crucified, as evidenced by the blood stains.
Most tellingly to Breault, the shroud has markings consistent with the crown of thorns, the mocking punishment meted out to the man who some called the king of the Jews.
But attendees to his talk should have plenty of facts to defend whichever side they choose.
Radiocarbon dating completed in 1988 could have put these questions to rest. They have not.
Though the tests showed that the shroud originated between 1260 and 1390, the testing took one sample from a corner, Breault said. They should have taken three patches from different parts of the material. Moreover, the corner they chose is chemically different from the rest of the garment.
Further tests completed last year by a team from Padua University dated the shroud between 280 B.C. and 220 A.D.
He's also bringing what he said is a museum-quality reproduction of the shroud.
And even if the shroud didn't wrap the body of Jesus, doesn't its centuries-old lineage and veneration make it an object of wonder?
Breault agrees, to a point.
"We live in a scientific, skeptical age. At the end of the day, I don't care how religious someone is, they'd like to know whether this thing is authentic or not."

Ernest Renan was correct. Jesus is never left alone, even in an increasingly sceptical world:

Q: Easy way to get current Activity, Fragment, LifeCycleOwner from within View? When writing Views, ViewModels and LiveData are lifecycle aware. The ViewModel want's the current FragmentActivity, LiveData the current LifecycleOwner. You don't know in advance if your View will be wrapped or somewhat. So it requires a flexible function to to find the wanted context. I ended up with this two methods:
private FragmentActivity getFragmentActivity() {
    Context context = getContext();
    while (!(context instanceof FragmentActivity)) {
        context = ((ContextWrapper) context).getBaseContext();
    }
    return (FragmentActivity) context;
}

private LifecycleOwner getLifecycleOwner() {
    Context context = getContext();
    while (!(context instanceof LifecycleOwner)) {
        context = ((ContextWrapper) context).getBaseContext();
    }
    return (LifecycleOwner) context;
}

Now this is a lot of boilerplate code to put into each View. Is there a more easy way?
I don't want to use a customised View base class for this, as large hierarchy's are ugly. Composition on the other hand requires as much code as this solution.

A: Kotlin Extensions
fun Context.fragmentActivity(): FragmentActivity? {
    var curContext = this
    var maxDepth = 20
    while (--maxDepth > 0 && curContext !is FragmentActivity) {
        curContext = (curContext as ContextWrapper).baseContext
    }
    return if(curContext is FragmentActivity)
        curContext
    else
        null
}

fun Context.lifecycleOwner(): LifecycleOwner? {
    var curContext = this
    var maxDepth = 20
    while (maxDepth-- > 0 && curContext !is LifecycleOwner) {
        curContext = (curContext as ContextWrapper).baseContext
    }
    return if (curContext is LifecycleOwner) {
        curContext as LifecycleOwner
    } else {
        null
    }
}

Usage
val lifecycleOwner = context.lifecycleOwner()
val fragmentActivity = context.fragmentActivity()

A: you can find it
lifecycle-runtime-ktx :
fun View.findViewTreeLifecycleOwner(): LifecycleOwner? = ViewTreeLifecycleOwner.get(this)

A: If you don't want to use composition you can put this into common BaseView class. Alternatively, you can make it a static method in some utils class.
If you use Kotlin you can also make it Kotlin extension function, what is my most favourite way of doing that.

A: Similar to another answer, but without needing to specify maxDepth:
 val Context.lifecycleOwner: LifecycleOwner?
    get() {
        var context: Context? = this

        while (context != null && context !is LifecycleOwner) {
            val baseContext = (context as? ContextWrapper?)?.baseContext
            context = if (baseContext == context) null else baseContext
        }

        return if (context is LifecycleOwner) context else null
    }

The View Along I-39 in Rockford Looks Weird Without the Giant Magic Water's Bucket
JB Love
JB Love Published: April 23, 2021
The other day I was approaching the I-90/E. State Street ramp as I do multiple times a week and it still looks weird. It looks weird without the clock, it looks weird without the hotel, it looks weird without the water park tubes, it looks weird as a deserted field. (Here's the latest Hard Rock Casino Rockford update, in case you're wondering what's up with that.) But, there was something else strange that I noticed nearby along I-39. Something from many Rockfordian's childhoods is missing.
Where's the Bucket?
In 2018, it was announced that Six Flags would be leasing and operating Magic Waters for 10 years with the option to extend that agreement over a span of decades. You can read the terms of the deal here. Along with the announcement, it was safe to assume changes would come along the way for what is now known as Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Rockford. There's already one new ride next to Screaming Lizard but where's the giant bucket that sits over Tiki Island? Before anyone launches an online campaign demanding the bucket to be returned, there is. a valid reason for it missing. Change.
Again, Do Not Panic.
Word is the bucket was purposely taken down but it will return. Maybe it will have a new color, maybe it will have a new design, but one thing is guaranteed, it will have a Six Flags Hurricane Habor Rockford logo proudly displayed for park-goers and I-90 travelers to see. The waterpark will open for the 2021 season on May, 29.

In May last year, the Supreme Court asked the Centre government to take a decision after considering all the objections raised by different entities. It is for this reason that the Centre government asked the state government to clear its stance on the allocation of the mines.
The state government official said, "The ministry of mines has followed the orders of the Supreme Court and had sought our opinion. We had recommended the Khandadhar mines to the Centre way back in 2009. We have reiterated our stand. The project is going to be a reality."
The official, however, refused to reveal his identity because the model code of conduct didn't allow him to make any statement.
Posco's Rs 52,000-crore steel plant project has been languishing for more than eight years for various reasons. While it managed to gain approval for land around a couple of months back, the necessary mining certificate for starting captive iron-ore mining is yet to be obtained.
The South Korean steel giant has already acquired 1,703 of the 2,700 acres of land that it requires to set up the plant. However, it will be able to start construction only after it deposits another Rs 12 crore towards a forest diversion plan.

An impasse over refugee aid does not justify the contempt of the wealthy for the poor.
DO you know why young, fortunate people run marathons? Because in the unprecedented ease that they enjoy, they feel that something essential has been leached from life – a demand that they be better than they naturally are, and a striving to answer that call. Running allows them to experience that striving, that yearning that is at the core of Europe and that for centuries has animated its architecture, its art and its spiritual life. It's a fundamental appeal: ask more of me, for I have so much to give.
But not everyone runs marathons; not everyone has this extra strength just waiting to be tapped. In fact, as running guru Timothy Noakes discovered, recreational runners tend to be white, educated, and above all relatively affluent. Not so many unemployed miners or Roma ghetto dwellers, let it be said, are lacing up their shoes for Košice 2015.
So too with our response to other, unexpected demands on our strength, such as that of the thousands of refugees who have poured into Europe this summer. The people who have clamoured for their succor, both within Slovakia and across Europe, simply have more to give. While those parading for border controls and deportation have been depicted, in this paper and others, as spiritually and financially deficient: lacking teeth or hair, say, or flourishing a middle finger under a frizz of crazy-lady hair.
We are at an impasse. Visiting Röszke is indeed a descent into horror at the deliberate neglect of people who need food, water and shelter. But nor do descriptions of their suffering have the power to move people who earn €400 a month at Kaufland, and who themselves have been embittered by unrealized dreams.
So let us cease this 'refugee shaming' of each other; let those among us with the capacity to help simply do so, according to the adage: Who must do the hard things? He who can.

These Photos Of Life With Kids Are Pure Chaos
Julie Blackmon's elaborate large-scale photographs show the sense of humor and tolerance for chaos you need to raise a family.
We love our family, we hate them, we talk about them in therapy from the comfort of our empty bathtub with the door locked. A lot of different outcomes can come from putting a group of people together in a space for so long, as many of us are learning. But it's usually in the everyday routines when we appreciate our families the most. Julie Blackmon's photography career started after she had three kids — but coming from a family of nine children, she was used to creating her own space and finding her voice among chaos.
Her work seems both prescient in its depictions of inescapable family mayhem and relatable to our current moment. In photographs taken in and around her home in Springfield, Missouri, she creates fantastical, surreal landscapes and portraits of families who appear to be caught in a moment of unplanned, unmitigated chaos. Blackmon, who describes the last few months as "300 snow days" strung together, spoke with us about how the pandemic has influenced her work and why parents and children need space in their relationship.

The Great Apostasy is irreversible. Bishop. Louis Vezelis OFM
Aug24 by Joseph Saraceno
Dear Friends in Christ, Jesus.
Faith is often tried and made strong in times of hardship. A case in point is the present Great Apostasy. Because of the Great Apostasy that has changed the Church forever into a very small flock as opposed to the great number that has apostatized and those that have been led into schism by false teachers, the remnant of the Church is often physically isolated from other members of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
Our once-Catholic schools are no longer Catholic because Catholic doctrine is no longer taught in them. There is no longer a reason for these schools because the true faith is not taught in them. They are nothing more than private schools where falsified history is taught. The churches built by our parents and grandparents for the offering of the Sacrifice of the Mass are no longer used for that purpose. Instead, token pieces of the true liturgy are embodied in the spread of false doctrines concerning the Holy Eucharist. True, many Catholic-sounding names are still used in many places. But, the reason for this is to keep the people deceived. Old maids who were once dedicated Religious have abandoned their religious garb and arrogantly parade as semi-official "pastorettes". In some places, even the valid priest is not honored with the title "Father," but now he is the "sacramental minister" – thus, erasing any indication of gender. Future "sacramental ministers" will easily be women…
With the falsification or complete denial of Holy Scripture, the way has been made open for any outrageous conclusions. We see the judaizing of the Church with the antipope, Joseph Ratizinger, under the hypocritical disguise of "ecumenism".
The Great Apostasy is irreversible. It is irreversible because it has been foretold in the Holy Scriptures. Once it takes place, there is no "going back" to the old days when Catholics were numerous. Our concern today should not be negative. It is a waste of time to look back at those days when we all went to church on Sunday with our families; when the good Nuns sacrificed themselves to instill not only worldly knowledge, but above all to teach our children the truths of the Catholic Church.
There are no Catholic nuns anymore! Just as there no Catholic schools anymore! What remains are only the buildings and sometimes the Catholic names of saints. Once the faith is gone, everything else is gone. There remains only the empty shell of what once was. A new religion, a new spirit animates those who openly call themselves "Catholic," yet are more liberal than the most liberal of Protestant sects.
What are isolated Catholics to do? How can they receive the Sacraments if all they have around them are heretics and schismatics _ Modernists and rabid Traditionalists _ neither group having either Sacraments or fruitful Sacraments? Our Lord will not abandon those who believe in Him and love Him. A true Catholic is only a thought away from a true representative of the Roman Catholic Church. Modern technology comes to the aid of those who would remain faithful in these trying times. The example of the ruler ought to give courage to all those who are physically separated from true Catholic clergymen. Our Lord cured the ruler's son without physically going to the man's house. Jesus did this knowing that His power could not be held within the bounds of space and time. He gave this power to His Apostles and even told them that they would do even greater things. Is it, then, an impossible thing for a true priest of the Roman Catholic Church to urge the isolated faithful to have recourse to the genuine teachings of the Church regarding the spiritual desire to receive certain Sacraments? Only those who are ignorant of the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ fail to comprehend the mercy of God.

Scientists studying tiny cloud-forming particles in Nunavut air
Five-year, $5-million study looking at natural and manmade aerosols in the Arctic
By LISA GREGOIRE

In order to see your breath in winter, there have to be tiny particles floating in the air so the moisture in your breath will have something to cling to and form molecules visible to the human eye.
Those tiny airborne particles, known as aerosols, come from naturally existing things such as plant pollen, dust and sea spray, and also from human made pollution such as black carbon.
A team of researchers now in Resolute Bay plan to examine what sort of aerosols are floating around the Arctic atmosphere in summer and how those particles might impact our northern climate.
"It's a very complicated process," said Jon Abbatt, a chemistry professor at the University of Toronto who is leading this project who took care to explain it in plain language. "We're in the nuts and bolts of this, trying to figure out the details."
Abbatt, from the University of Toronto, is the lead researcher for NETCARE — the Network on Climate and Aerosols, a project of the Canadian Climate and Atmospheric Research program of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).
The project is a collaboration between a number of Canadian universities, Environment Canada, the Alfred Wegnar Institute and other international partners.
While the content of Arctic aerosols might be interesting in itself — gauging how much pollution is migrating to Nunavut from Europe and Asia, for instance — Abbatt and his colleagues have a more specific goal.
Tiny particles in the air help to create clouds and clouds impact temperature, precipitation, wind and other aspects of climate.
Also, when pollutants such as black carbon eventually settle on the snow, they darken it. Dark colours absorb more heat from the sun, leading to quicker melting.
That's not all: more clouds might also mean increased precipitation and that means cleaner air because rain and snow stick to particles in the air and pull them to the ground.
As Abbatt said, it's complicated.
When scientists want to predict how the climate might change in future, they have to plug all these interrelated data and factors into a formula that helps them to create climate models.
But the formula is only as accurate as the data that's used. In fact, climate change deniers are quick to pick apart climate models when they discover gaps or weaknesses in the data.
"If you really want to make a prediction in the future, of what happens when sea ice melts, you need to tell the information to a model in a correct manner," Abbatt said. "What is the mechanism by which these particles are forming up here?"
The project might seem unusual to people who study these sorts of things since Arctic air is cleanest, and most free of pollutants, in summer.
That's because the cold jet stream recedes northward in summer, doesn't circulate as much in Asia and Europe and therefore doesn't contain as many overseas pollutants to disperse into the Arctic atmosphere.
Abbatt said the air is so clean in Resolute right now that even though it's below zero, he often can't see his breath outside.
But the timing of this project is intentional.
"In summer, it's a much more biologically controlled system and one of the thoughts is that you make particles in the air naturally through emissions from the ocean and so it's those particles that really control the climate up here in summer," Abbatt said.
Wind and waves kick up spray sending salt particles in the air, Abbatt explained. But that spray also contains gases produced by phytoplankton and other marine critters which then break down into organic particles in the air.
"Sea ice is melting and we're going to have a lot more open ocean," he said. "We may be ultimately changing the nature of the atmosphere up here because we're moving from having a lot of sea ice all the way through summer to having much more open ocean, and perhaps emitting more particles into the atmosphere."
Mass spectrometers have been installed on a German DC-3 aircraft owned by their German partners at the Alfred Wegnar Institute, and also on the Canadian Coast Guard research icebreaker Amundsen, which is currently on its way north.
Abbatt and his crew will use those modern machines to collect and study air samples at the molecular level.
They expect to make 20 flights during 23 days in Resolute Bay.
On board the Amundsen, scientists hope to analyze low level air particles and also ship emissions to gauge the potential aerosol impact from commercial and cruise ships in the Arctic which are expected to increase in number over the next few decades.
The five-year project will cost nearly $5 million.
Abbatt and his team plan to visit different parts of the Arctic at different times of the year until 2018 in order to get a broad spectrum of Arctic air in all seasons.

Kalijai temple is situated on an island.It is about 18 km away from Balugaon in south east direction, the residence of the Goddess Kalijai. Kalijai means Kali+Jai, Kali,the Goddess Kali and Jai is a name of a village girl of Banpur,who was drowned there during her visit to Parikuda Gada for her marriage. An accidental storm with deep black cloud was drowned her traditional boat there by the hill and vanished. All the boatmen with her father were alive except that girl Jai undiscovered. Since then many boatmen have listened her low voice during early evening there and she became the adorable Goddess of the locality and became respected among Odiya people.Most of the fisherman community is worshipng Goddess Kalijai as their "Ista Devi".Ista means who manages all the Ista(Good) and Anistha(Bad) times. Most of the home tourists know that visit to Kalijai is that's all to visit Chilika. Balugaon is well connected with East Coast Railways and National High way(NH-5). Motor Lunch is availabl at the Jetty near Balugaon,but the scheduled day of visit is only on Sunday.It will take 30 minutes to reach Kalijai from Balugaon.


The City of Boston entered into a historic agreement that is projected to bring approximately $52 million in annual revenue to the city, $50 million in annual local spending and a guaranteed 4,000 jobs. As part of the agreement, reached on Aug. 27, 2013, East Boston is expected to receive an upfront payment of $33.4 million to fund community improvement projects and could receive up to an additional $20 million annually.
Boston's Host Community Advisory Committee recommended an agreement for development of a $1 billion resort style destination gaming establishment at Suffolk Downs. This long-awaited deal allows the Suffolk Downs proposal to move towards a referendum vote. The proposed project will create an additional 16 acres of open space and reduce the 12 acres of pavement that presently exist at Suffolk Downs.
This development will also connect neighborhoods and visitors to the area via pedestrian walkways, bikeways and open spaces accessible 24 hours a day. The agreement commits to an early opening after 14 months from the start of construction to a full opening after an additional 12 months. The agreement also commits to continued operation of the race track at Suffolk Downs as well as a 50% hiring policy for Boston residents.
Under the Host Community Agreement, the developer will invest $1 billion to construct a resort style destination gaming establishment consisting of two distinct gaming areas, two luxury hotels, entertainment space, retail space, a spa, and a seven-story parking garage.
The next steps as outlined by state law include the proponent sending the request to the City of Boston for a vote to be set. A referendum vote on the signed agreement must take place in the host community 60-90 days after signing of the agreement.

The ARM Cuauhtémoc has been to ports around the world as a sailing ambassador for Mexico. This week New London, Conn., warmly greeted the tall ship and its crew.
The tall ship Cuauhtémoc arrived at City Pier in New London, Conn., on May 2 amid applause and symbolic cannon fire, with many of the 81 crewmembers manning the yards.
The sail-training vessel is part of the Mexican navy and was named for the last Aztec ruler of Tenochtitlan.
The 297-footer is the last of four sister ships built by the Naval Shipyards of Bilbao, Spain, in 1982, all to a design similar to the 1930 designs of the German firm Blohm & Voss, such as the Gorch Fock, USCGC Eagle and NRP Sagres.
Cuauhtémoc is a sailing ambassador for her home country and a frequent visitor to world ports. She has sailed more than 400,000 nautical miles during 23 years of service, making appearances at such events as Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races, American Sail Training Association Tall Ships Challenges and Sail Osaka.
The ship offered free tours to the public during its four-day stay in New London and crewmembers mingled with local residents, but the visit was not all fun and games. The cadets are learning to sail the ship in the old-school way, without technology.
"They are learning how to sail by sail, and also to navigate by astronomical navigation and using the magnetic compass," Capt. Pedro Matacervantes told Fox 61 News. "We don't want them to become officers just by reading the GPS."
Cuauhtémoc is on a six-month mission and will cross the Atlantic, making stops in Europe during the summer before returning to Mexico in October.

KIDS IN SPECIAL SCHOOLS NOW THE LUCKY ONES!
£3.4 billion (and rising) - the amount now spent annually on non-teaching classroom assistants to help facilitate the Inclusion of children into mainstream schools - according to Durham University's research for the Sutton Trust published in this week's MailOnline.
This is on top of the money paid to mainstream schools for those they categorise as having special educational needs to help them cope – when many haven't special education needs at all.
Note the word negatively. The English just love their understatements.
The Sutton Trust Teaching Guide says it all: 'Very low/no impact for high cost' and sets out better ways to spend the 'pupil premium' giving better value for money.
Thousands of children with special needs are being off-loaded on to these 'amiable mums' instead of being in the hands of trained and dedicated teachers and carers in special schools. How on earth does the 'twaddle of professors' justify this?
When will they face the sad reality that their Alice in Cloud Cuckooland dream of inclusion is clearly neither fair nor just for many children – and too expensive! No wonder no-one wants to talk about it.
The kids in Special Schools are now the lucky ones!

Burkina Faso, Niger Republic Say 100 'Terrorists' Killed In Joint Operation
Written by on December 10, 2021
The armies of Burkina Faso and neighbouring Niger said Thursday they had killed around 100 "terrorists" in a joint military operation against jihadists on the border between November 25 and December 9.
The operation managed to "neutralise around 100 terrorists" and "detain around 20 suspicious individuals", they said in a joint statement.
They had also dismantled two bases, one in Kokoloukou in western Niger and another in Yeritagui in eastern Burkina Faso.
Four Burkinabe soldiers also lost their lives in a roadside bomb attack, it added.
Both sides deployed foot soldiers, as well as "surveillance and combat aircraft" during the operation, whose headquarters are in the town of Tillaberi in western Niger.
Tillaberi is located in the so-called tri-border area — a flashpoint zone where the frontiers of Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali converge.
Groups linked to Al-Qaeda and the so-called Islamic State group have plagued the Sahel region since 2015.

Like every girl, from the time she was about 15, Kristen Fagaly Sides thought about who she would someday marry. She briefly dated one guy in high school and another after, but knew they were not the right ones for her. So rather than continue relationships she felt wouldn't become permanent, she chose to wait for the right man.
Holding to the words of James 1:17, "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father", Kristen decided if God had a mate for her that would be great. But she chose to believe that GOD'S BEST would be THE BEST for her even if it turned out to be quite different from what she had expected.
As she approached her mid twenties other people started making comments and suggestions for places she could meet a good guy. Kristen easily admits that thinking every new small group you join or trip you take or event you participate in can perhaps be the place you meet your mate can become a cycle of constant disappointment. She says it could easily have become an all consuming mind game that had the potential to spiral into compromise and an attempt to try to control the situation.
She chose to believe that God's best would be THE best for her even if it turned out to be quite different from what she had expected.
Although Kristen did not marry until she was almost 31, she realized at some point that she didn't need to wait for marriage for her life to be meaningful and significant. Rather than thinking "When I get married my life will really start" or "When I am part of a couple we can do truly important things for God", she chose to focus on the fact that she was building her future right then!
In 2008 Kristen made a missions trip to Brooklyn, New York, and for the first time in her life saw true poverty. Seeing the desolation, harshness and severe lack devastated her. It was then she felt God calling her to inner city ministry. Soon after she moved to California to help with a church and outreach ministry there.
In the meantime, an inner city outreach called The Arkansas Dream Center had been started by her home church in Little Rock. Kristen eventually returned to her home state to join forces with the Dream Center's director in establishing the ministry that now has 8 locations in the state of Arkansas.
Kristen continued to trust God with her future and to faithfully execute the assignment He had given her.
As Associate Director, she has helped grow what started simply as a Saturday outreach to an organization which has two facilities, seventeen employees, an after school program five days a week, a food pantry, clothing and furniture distribution centers, a women's residential home and restoration program, and SLAM, a sports program for teens (Saving Lives Through Athletic Ministry). In addition the Arkansas Dream Center serves 150,000 meals each year to children who might otherwise be without food.
The Arkansas Dream Center's mission statement is "Every Arkansan Chasing Their God Driven Dream". Kristen says everything they do is centered around relationships which keeps them from just being a handout or giveaway program. For example, the SLAM program's goal is to have one coach for every student. Because most of the kids are from single parent households, providing mentorship and discipleship is vital to what they consider to be success. Kristen says she's amazed that an organization which started only 8 years ago has had this amount of growth in that period of time.
Why wait for wedding bells when you can be changing your world for God and for good?
Kristen continued to trust God with her future and to faithfully execute the assignment He had given her. Then a little over 3 years ago a young man came to volunteer at the Dream Center. He showed up faithfully every Saturday and was involved in special programs and outreaches all year. By December of that year he had asked Kristen out on a date. The rest, as they say, is history.
Kristen and Mylan were married the next year and now in addition to Kristen's full time job at the Dream Center, they serve together as Outreach Pastors of the Greater New Life Church in Little Rock, Arkansas. Their story is a beautiful love story joined by very different paths. Mylan says his is a story of redemption. Kristen says hers is a story of faithfulness. Together they're writing the story God designed for their lives.
And together they're creating a family who they hope reflects God's praise. This week Kristen goes back to work following a six week maternity leave. The newest chapter in their lives, Evien Jean, is a dark haired, brown eyed beautiful baby girl. No doubt she will grow up serving alongside her mom and dad, learning lessons about life and love. But for now she is happy that Mom's office space will double as her daytime nursery. And no doubt the God who had a plan for her mom and dad has a plan for her as well.
Such a beautiful article about a beautiful soul! Thanks for spotlighting Kristen's faithful, servant heart.
Kristen is the perfect example of "Seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be added to you".
She comes from a family who loves to serve, and I sure their baby will follow in the family footsteps.

Philip J. Davis
"For other persons named Philip Davis, see Philip Davis (disambiguation)."
Philip J. Davis (born 1923) is an American applied mathematician. He was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts. He is known for his work in numerical analysis and approximation theory, as well as his investigations in the history and philosophy of mathematics. Currently a Professor Emeritus from the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University, he earned his degrees in mathematics from Harvard University (Ph.D., 1950; advisor, Ralph P. Boas, Jr.).
He served briefly in an aerodynamics research position in the Air Force in World War II before joining the National Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute of Standards and Technology). He became Chief of Numerical Analysis there and worked on the well-known Abramowitz and Stegun "Handbook of Mathematical Functions" before joining Brown in 1963.
He was awarded the Chauvenet Prize for mathematical writing in 1963 for an article on the gamma function, and has won numerous other prizes, including being chosen to deliver the 1991 Hendrick Lectures of the MAA (which became the basis for his book "Spirals: From Theodorus to Chaos "). He has also been a frequent invited lecturer. In addition, he has authored several books. Among the best known are "The Mathematical Experience" (with Reuben Hersh), a popular survey of modern mathematics and its history and philosophy; "Methods of Numerical Integration" (with Philip Rabinowitz), long the standard work on the subject of quadrature; and "Interpolation and Approximation", still an important reference in this area.
He has also written an autobiography, "The Education of a Mathematician"; some of his other books include autobiographical sections as well. In addition, he has published works of fiction. His best-known book outside the field of mathematics is "The Thread: A Mathematical Yarn" (1983, 2nd ed. 1989), which "has raised Digression into a literary form" (Gerard Piel); it takes off from the name of the Russian mathematician Tschebyscheff, and in the course of explaining why he insists on that "barbaric, Teutonic, non-standard orthography" (in the words of a reader of "Interpolation and Approximation" who wrote him to complain) he digresses in many amusing directions.

The UK's future skills-based immigration system
The Government has published its guidance on the future of the UKVI's new reformed immigration system: During the Implementation Period, Home Office will implement the EU Settlement Scheme. This gives EU citizens already here, and also those who arrive in the UK during the Implementation Period, the opportunity to secure their future residence in the UK. The UK has agreed with the EU on rights for EU citizens already living in the UK and UK nationals living in the EU, to enable them to carry on with their lives broadly as now. The Government is finalising arrangements with negotiating with European Free Trade Association (EFTA) States – Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland – to bring about similar arrangements for their citizens. The Government has made clear that the CTA and associated rights between the UK, Ireland and the Crown Dependencies will be unaffected by the UK's exit. Irish and British citizens will continue to enjoy the freedom to travel within the CTA without the need for immigration controls or residence/work permits. Irish citizens do not need to obtain settled status in the UK. The UK will leave the EU on 29 March 2019. There will be an Implementation Period, planned to...

KO (Nigeria) [2018] UKSC 53 and Rhuppiah [2018] UKSC 58
The case of KO (Nigeria) [2018] UKSC 53 and Rhuppiah [2018] UKSC 58 plays an important role towards Tribunal's decision, whether a removal direction is lawful in line with Article 8 ECHR. By the Immigration Act 2014, Parliament introduced Part 5A to the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 which seeks to direct courts and tribunals as to how to conduct this balancing exercise. KO (Nigeria) and Rhuppiah are the first cases in which the Supreme Court has had to consider these provisions. In doing so, the Supreme Court has largely continued to narrow the scope of protection provided for migrants in the UK by Article 8. Rhuppiah [2018] UKSC 58 concerned s 117B(3) and (5). Mrs Rhuppiah, a Tanzanian national, entered the UK in 1997 with leave to remain for 3 months in 1997. She was granted various other periods of leave to remain, although sometimes with breaks between her visas during which time she was in the UK unlawfully. While studying at college, Mrs Rhuppiah met Ms Charles who suffers from a gravely debilitating illness. Mrs Rhuppiah lives with Ms Charles and provides care gratuitously to her. Mrs Rhuppiah's leave to remain expired in 2009 and she had not been...

Tier 1 ILR and paragraph 322(5) of the Immigration Rules
The case of R (Khan) v SSHD (Dishonesty, Tax Return, Paragraph 322(5)) [2018] UKUT 384 (IAC) (3 May 2018) is worth to have a look at. It set out principles that Secretary of State failed to consider when deciding on applications made by Tier 1 migrants. In Royal Brunei Airlines v Tan [1995] UKPC 4 Lord Nicholls said that "carelessness is not dishonesty" and thus the refusal was arguably irrational and unlawful. The Supreme Court approved of this statement in Ivey v Genting Casino [2017] UKSC 67. The Tribunal noted that in response to the applicant's reliance on the decision in Sagar Arun Samant [2017] UKAITUR JR65462016 (discussed here), the Home Office produced a list of cases where applicants had "jumped on the band wagon" but the Tribunal had rejected any evidence blaming the accountants. Very clear examples of this point were found in Kamal [2017] UKAITUR JR114172016, Parveen and Saleem [2017] UKAITUR JR94402016 and other cases.

Safi and others (permission to appeal decisions) [2018] UKUT 00388 (IAC)
Key points on the case (1) It is essential for a judge who is granting permission to appeal only on limited grounds to say so, in terms, in the section of the standard form document that contains the decision, as opposed to the reasons for the decision. (2) It is likely to be only in very exceptional circumstances that the Upper Tribunal will be persuaded to entertain a submission that a decision which, on its face, grants permission to appeal without express limitation is to be construed as anything other than a grant of permission on all of the grounds accompanying the application for permission, regardless of what might be said in the reasons for decision section of the document. D. Procedure Rules 11. Rule 34 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Immigration & Asylum Chamber) Rules 2014 provides as follows:- "Tribunal's consideration of an application for permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal 34.—(1) On receiving an application for permission to appeal the Tribunal must first consider whether to review the decision in accordance with rule 35.

New Statement of Changes on the Immigration Rules being planned in December 2018, which should be implemented post Jan 2019. Some of the key points to take from the announcement is as follows: The Tier 1 Investor route is likely to be suspended, so that new changes can be planned by UKVI. The current policy and rules on the Tier 1 Investor route can be found here: https://icslegal.com/tier1-investors.php. Our understanding following the Immigration Minister's statement is that the Tier 1 Investor route is currently being used by organised crime and money laundering.

Last month, hundreds of exhibitors attended the New York City Gifts Trade Show to display the latest accessories, toys, and other gifts. From creative candles to kitschy bottle openers, retailers had the chance to view these new gift collections ready to be introduced into the U.S. market.
But, once the show wraps, what happens to all these new products?
Typically exhibitors spend the money to ship these products back to a distribution center, and sometimes they are even thrown out. To ensure that does not happen, Good360 launched an innovative program to transform these excess products into goods for the greater good. Products collected at the end of the show are now being distributed in the New York City and New Jersey communities to help victims still recovering from Superstorm Sandy.
Working with Gifts Trade Show coordinators, Good360 staff collected products from generous vendors at the end of the show. Approximately 20 high school/college students and community volunteers joined in the effort to do the heavy lifting— to not only collect, but eventually deliver the goods to children and others in need in the local area. Thanks to the show's generous exhibitors, struggling families in the New York City area will receive two truckloads of jigsaw puzzles, books, lighting, bedding, and more.
Any company at a trade show can donate products to help people in need in the local community. As a matter of fact, why not write to us today and tell us where your company will be exhibiting next? Let Good360 do the work of getting that excess inventory from your booth to where it is most needed.
Working together, companies, nonprofits, and those who want to give back in the community can make a significant impact. If you have ideas on other places or events that Good360 can turn products and excess inventory into goods for the greater good, please send them to di@good360.org.
In an upcoming post we'll spotlight some of the stories we hear as we distribute the toys, books, and goods in the community for Superstorm Sandy victims!

Apple's iPhone sales slump while China's Huawei gains
by Rex Crum, The Mercury News
Credit: CC0 Public Domain
Apple's biggest cash cow, the iPhone, continued to suffer weaker sales around the world in first quarter of the year as Chinese tech giant Huawei flexed its muscles and claimed more market share from Apple and its longtime rival, Samsung.
That's according to new data from tech research firm Gartner, which on Tuesday released its latest report on the state of the smartphone market. According to Gartner, worldwide smartphone sales during the first quarter of the year dropped to 373 million units—a 2.7% decline from the same period a year ago. The main reasons cited for the drop were rising prices and slower rates of improvements in phone features that have caused consumers to extend the amount of time they are taking between phone upgrades.
Gartner said that Apple saw its iPhone sales fall to 44.6 million devices from 54.1 million in the first quarter of 2018, while its share of the worldwide market dropped to 11.9% from 14.1% a year ago. Gartner analyst Anshul Gupta said that even though Apple cut iPhone prices in several markets during the quarter, the move wasn't enough to stoke demand and raise sales.
"Apple is facing longer replacement cycles as users struggle to see enough value benefits to justify replacing existing iPhones," Gupta said.
The U.S., Apple's largest smartphone market, saw total smartphone sales fall by 15.8% during the first quarter.
Samsung managed to hold on to the top spot in the smartphone market with sales of 71.5 million phones, or almost 7 million fewer than in the first quarter of 2018, as its market share fell to 19.2% from 20.5%.
Huawei strengthened its position as the world's No. 2 smartphone company, as Gartner said the Chinese tech giant sold 58.4 million units, which was good enough for a 15.7% market share. During the same period a year ago, Huawei sold 40.4 million smartphones. Gupta said Huawei saw particular strength in its two biggest business regions, China and Europe.
Huawei's gains came before the escalation of trade war between the United States and China. President Donald Trump recently issued an executive order that almost completely bans U.S. tech companies from doing business with Chinese-owned businesses. That order doesn't officially go into effect until Aug. 19, but it could have an effect on Huawei's business operations.

"Never Alone": The Unforgettable Lesson of Faith I Learned in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s HomeDanielle Christensen - It's a sweltering early-autumn afternoon on September 25, 2016, and my sister and I are driving through the streets of Montgomery, Alabama, on our way to the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s home. Dr. King lived in Montgomery between 1954 and 1960, the same period of time as the 1955-56 bus boycott that launched the civil rights movement. At first glance, the white wooden house with a brick pathway leading to the front porch appears to be nothing out of the ordinary. Only, the charming exterior is far from your typical Southern porch, as it was marred by an explosive...

The banknote in honor of Alan Turing
He is considered to be one of the fathers of computer science and a pioneer of modern computer science. Its influence alone, it is said, shortened the world war by several years. No wonder his birth is remembered. The Bank of England has now circulated the note recognizing Alan Turing. And it has long been earned for everyone.
The banknote that pays tribute to Alan Turing partially restores justice.
50 traveling libraries
His face now appears on British 50 pound notes. There is Alan Turing, the British scientist and visionary of artificial intelligence. It is the face of the person who was responsible for deciphering the Nazis' secret language. And it hits the streets of the UK on its 109th birthday. Something he probably never suspected in life, he was bullied by the judiciary. Or rather, injustice.
Turing's work helped accelerate the Allied efforts. He could read the German naval messages encrypted with the Enigma machine. It is said that his work was key to shortening World War II and saving lives.
Turing was also a visionary who established the first theoretical model of artificial intelligence. And he developed the so-called Turing test. With this concept, the existence of intelligence in a machine can be proven.
Your contributions contributed significantly to the end of the war.
Unfair ending
"A computer can be said to be intelligent if it manages to trick a person into thinking they are human," he wrote. His ideas, which were ahead of their time, shaped history.
Despite his brilliant achievements, his career ended abruptly in 1952 after he was charged with homosexuality. He died two years after his conviction. The coroners determined a suicide. However, his family claims it was an accident.
On December 24, 2013, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom issued an edict. In it the mathematician was officially exonerated. All charges against him were thereby overturned. The banknote that pays tribute to Alan Turing is also a token of admiration for his genius.

Thanks, Kisal! I thought maybe daffodils... But all the daffodils in my area have been up and blooming for weeks now. Maybe I just have slow daffies. They're in such a strange location. Who plants a grouping of daffodils in the middle of the driveway? I'm glad I noticed the greens before I drove over them!

Q: Canvas width and height calculation is off I'm using some script I found on Git that generates a snow effect. Somewhere in the code I have to set the width and the height of the canvas in which the snow is generated. I'm setting the canvas to the window full width / height :
canvas.width = $(window).width();
canvas.height = $(window).height();

But when rendered in the browser there are on both height and width some extra pixels adding scrollbars to the window. You can see the behavior here : Canvas ; I'm not quite sure why the width / height is calculated wrong or if there's something else interfering with those calculations that it makes it bigger than the actual window width / height. Maybe someone has a different view of the behavior or encountered it before ?

A: The canvas element is displayed inline by default, you can read here about similar problem.
The solution is quite simple :) Add following css code to the canvas element:
display: block;
and scrollbars should disappear.

old answer:
$(window).width() works properly but i don't know why $(window).height() returns too large value. It cause also showing vertical scrollbar because earlier computed width don't include the size of horizontal scrollbar.

Oscar de la Renta (seen above), who died in October 2014 aged 82, was one of the world's leading fashion designers for more than 50 years. And his work has been commemorated by the United States Postal Service with a stamp series, to be released next month.
Born in the Dominican Republic in 1932, de la Renta was apprenticed with Spanish Basque fashion designer Cristobal Balenciaga, before moving to Paris to work at the fashion house Lanvin.
In 1963 he moved to New York to design the couture collection for Elizabeth Arden, and two years later he launched his own label, known for its ornate embroidery, sumptuous fur, floral motifs and hint of the exotic – as seen on the stamps below.
The coming USPS issue prompted us to look back at previously printed stamps featuring fashion and famous designers as a topic. Below is a selection of fashion stamps held in stock here at PostBeeld.
Swedish Fashion stamp booklet, issued 2007. Featuring the works of eight world-famous Swedish fashion designers.
Juozas Statkevicius is Lithuania's most prominent fashion designer, well-known far beyond the borders of the Baltic States. In fact, he is the first designer from the Baltics to present his haute couture collections in Paris (in 2001 and 2002) and the first Lithuanian who has made appearance on the glossy pages of Elle and Vogue fashion magazines. Statkevicius designs are available in New York, London and Tokyo and such stars as Bjork, Kyra Sedgwick and Naomi Watts wear them.
Above, Great Britain 2012, featuring designs from Paul Smith, Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen. The set also celebrates 60s fashion by Ossie Clark and his contemporary Tommy Nutter, whose Ringo Starr suit is shown on the fifth stamp (top). Additionally, designs from Hardy Amies, who had his own fashion business and in 1955 received a royal warrant as dressmaker to Queen Elizabeth II, and Norman Hartnell – who began working in fashion in the years before World War Two. He too received a Royal Warrant to dress both the Queen and the Queen Mother, and the Queen was often photographed wearing his designs.
2010, Ireland, honouring internationally known Irish fashion designers who work under their own name and label.
There have been hundreds of other fashion-related stamps released over the years but we finish with one issued by France in 1955 to celebrate the success of exporting French haute couture products.


Dr. Ed Fitch, the ophthalmologist who presides over my club, was giving a travelogue in the lounge; he had returned from a cruise to Alaska.
"That's the worst joke I ever heard," Rose groaned.
Dr. Ed was today's East, defending against five diamonds doubled after a contentious auction. South took the ace of spades and led a club, ducking West's nine. West tried to cash the king of spades, and South ruffed, drew trumps and led another club.
When Ed took the ace, he pondered. A spade lead would concede a ruff-sluff, so Ed led a heart, hoping West had the ace for his takeout double. But dummy's queen won, and South claimed his game.
East fell victim to an optical delusion. South was almost sure to hold the ace of hearts. If he didn't, he had at most 10 high-card points. Moreover, although to lead a third spade appeared to be risky, a count of South's tricks would show that the defense would still prevail.
The play marks South with 1-4-6-2 distribution. He would not have played the clubs that way with K-8-5 or J-8-5. So South is known to have six trump tricks and one spade. Assuming he has the ace of hearts, he still needs three more tricks.
If East leads a third spade at the seventh trick, South can ruff in his hand and discard a heart from dummy. But since dummy has only two trumps left, South still loses a heart for down one.

End of US highway 460
View a map showing this route.
East: Virginia Beach, VA
West: Roanoke, VA
East: Norfolk, VA
West: St. Louis, MO
West: Frankfort, KY
US 460 was commissioned in 1933. Its east end has always been in the Hampton Roads area, but not at the same intersection where it ends today. Initially it came north on Pleasure House Road and ended at US 60 (Shore Drive), as shown in this image:
Karners, Jan. 2017
Today that is within Virginia Beach city limits. At the time US 460 was an intra-state route, with its west terminus at Roanoke.
My understanding is US 460 was routed into the city along what had been VA hwy. 10. I have seen a 1929 map showing VA 10 coming in on Dale Avenue, jogging north a block on 4th Street SE, west again on Tazewell Avenue and Franklin Road, then north on 2nd Street SW, ending at Campbell Avenue (US 11). So I assume that was where US 460 ended as well. This postcard is a colorized photo looking east on Campbell:
US 460 would have come in from the right on 2nd, ending with the Ponce de Leon Hotel filling the windshield. The Art Deco version of that building (pictured above) was completed just a few years before US 460 was commissioned. (Occupying that space prior was the original Ponce, which was even more elaborate, but since it burned in the final days of 1930, that particular building would not have been seen by US 460 travelers.)
In 1943 the east end of US 460 was changed such that it ended in downtown Norfolk. This image is looking south on Monticello Avenue, which at the time was an extension of Granby Street and carried Alternate US 58. To the left on Brambleton Avenue was the beginning of US 460 (which joins the current route of US 460 about a half-mile in that direction):
In 1958 the east end of US 460 was moved to its current location in Norfolk. These photos were looking north on Granby Street, at its junction with Ocean View Avenue (US 60):
Sanderson, Oct. 1999
Nitzman, 2001
Following are close-ups of the assemblies visible in the preceding photo:
This was the east beginning of US 460, as seen from westbound US 60... but the "East" tab was a mistake, and not long after this photo was taken, this assembly was fixed to read "West":
Southbound Granby begins to the left, and that is the beginning of US 460 as well. Since then, a shield for Alternate US 60 has been added:
Here is the view from the opposite direction (east on Ocean View):
The east beginning of US 460 is to the right. The first westbound marker was posted about a block ahead, at the intersection with A View Avenue, where Granby makes a bend to the south (note the other shield specifies mainline US 60, but it should actually read "West Alt. US 60":
In 1947 the west end of US 460 was extended to downtown St. Louis: just over the Mississippi, via the MacArthur Bridge. The 1954 USGS topo shows that the highway ended at 7th Street, via a typical at-grade intersection. Later topos show that an extension was built over 7th, which immediately curved south to end at Chouteau Avenue:
USGS, 1:24k scale
The MacArthur Bridge is now closed to automobile traffic, and the offramps have been dismantled, so there is not much left to see from the ground. But until about 2008 a decent aerial view was possible from the top of the Gateway Arch. This photo was taken looking south from one of the east windows:
Sanderson, July 2007
That is the Mississippi River; the Illinois shore is visible at upper left. The closest bridge is known to locals as the Poplar Street Bridge, but that can be a little confusing to visitors, because it is more than just a "street": while it does align with Poplar, it actually carries interstate highway traffic. The bridge behind that is the MacArthur. The upper deck was once used by US 460 traffic; it is closed now, but the lower deck is still used by trains. On the Missouri side landing, the railroad and the old highway diverge, as can be seen in this shot:
That was also looking south, but from one of the west side windows. Running across the bottom of the photo is the rail line that connects to the MacArthur Bridge. Just above that at far left, an elevated roadway is visible, with two white modulars sitting on it. Historically that carried highway traffic to MacArthur (off the left edge of the photo). To the right of the modulars, a bridge carried traffic over 7th Street, connecting with the curved road in the grassy area on the far side of 7th. That curve ends at Chouteau, and that was formerly a west end of US 460. (That curved segment has since been removed and replaced with a surface-level parking lot.)
Down on the surface, at one time there was a remarkable sign posted at US 460's terminus:
date unknown (linked to source)
That must have been before the 7th St. overpass was built. This was a sign directing travelers to the west beginning of US 460:
The Poplar Street Bridge opened to traffic in 1967, and most highway traffic was redirected to use it. Official state highway maps from both Missouri and Illinois suggest that around 1972 the US 460 designation may have been truncated to its junction with I-55/70 in East St. Louis for a few years before it was completely removed from Illinois in 1977. That year the west end of US 460 was truncated to its current terminus in Frankfort:
Sanderson, Feb. 2007
That was looking west on Main Street, where US 460 ends at Versailles Road, which is where it junctions with its parent route (US 60). This photo is looking the opposite direction on Main, heading east out of downtown:
Elkins, May 2000
US 60 is routed southward on Versailles, but if one continues straight, they find themselves on Georgetown Road, at the west beginning of US 460. Next we are looking north on Versailles (wb US 60 and nb US 421); the west beginning of US 460 is to the right:

Constantine Falkland Cary Smythe, "Conn," sports entrepreneur (b at Toronto 1 Feb 1895; d there 18 Nov 1980). He was awarded the Military Cross in WWI and was severely injured by shrapnel in WWII. His reputation for hockey acumen derived from his success coaching U of T Varsity Grads to the Allan Cup (1927), and from the success of the original New York Ranger team, which he assembled in 1926. In 1927 he and associates raised $160 000 and bought Toronto St Pats, changing their name to TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS. Maple Leaf Gardens was built largely owing to his efforts (1931). He sold his controlling interest in the Gardens and the team in 1961 to his son Stafford and others. His autobiography, Conn Smythe: If you can't beat 'em in the alley, with Scott Young, appeared in 1981.

2-3 holstered guns maximum at any given time on 47, under arms and maybe on the back?
Please... never, ever again remove the Silverballers from his inventory like you did in Absolution, I felt naked.
For a game that has custom guns and silencers attached to its image, removing and adding a silencer to a gun should be animated and require a few seconds to do it, not a magic on/off button!
Hitman Contracts inventory was very user friendly, hypodermic needles were awesome.
They addressed a few of these on the website http://hitman.com/open-letter-to-hitman-fans/ yesterday.
Please bring back the W2000 sniper rifle!! It has been 47´s rifle all through the franchise i dont know why you didnt put it in Absolution but i missed it.

The Hi-Sky Emmaus Community has a remarkable heritage. In 1985, a few people from Midland attended Emmaus Walks. At that time the closest Walks were being held in Junction or Kerrbille. In 1986, some walks were held in San Angelo and others attended. About that time we began holding monthly community meetings although we were not yet officially a community. The meetings were held in a small Sunday School classroom at St. Luke's United Methodist Church.
In 1987, we decided to become official. We applied for a cherter, elected a Board of Directors and began planning for the first two "best walks ever". Those walks were held in August and September, 1987 at Camp Butman, south of Sweetwater. We still did not have enough people to completely staff a team so people from the Concho Country Community in San Angelo helped us. But we were on our way and never looked back.
Soon, however, we had grown to the point that no help was needed. We graduated to larger Sunday School rooms, to fellowship halls, to sanctuaries, and eventually to the sanctuaries of the largest churches in Midland.
We realized that our success was in part due to the help we had received from others, especially the Concho Country Community. We were aware, in return, that we has a strong obligation to help other new communities. At that time, there were no other established Emmaus Communities for hundreds of miles to the east, west and north. The requests for help did come in and we responded. Some of the areas that we helped by providing team members and in some cases lay directors were Abliene, Amarillo, Big Spring, Lubbock, New Mexico, Odessa, Seymour and Snyder.
We even helped one of our members go to South Africa to work the first Walk there. In time, one of our participants went to Nashville and served a few years as the director of the worldwide Emmaus movement. So, in a sense, our community has helped in sharing the experience all over the world. This community has been built on prayer and the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Thanks be to God!
Special Thanks to Larry and Barbara McIntosh for writing this article for the website.
