What happens to my car in a bankruptcy?
Our Puyallup car repossession and bankruptcy lawyers get asked this question a lot during many of our initial consultations.
If your car is paid off and fairly modest, you have nothing to worry about in a Chapter 7 liquidation bankruptcy. Depending on your circumstances, you can protect a car worth anywhere from $2500 to $14,425 in a Chapter 7.
Your options depend on whether you choose state or federal exemptions and what other property you need to protect. We are highly skilled at maximizing the amount of property our clients can keep in a Chapter 7. Even if your car is worth so much, the trustee wants to take it to pay some of your debts, you usually have the option of offering a cash settlement at a reduced amount.
If you are still making payments on a car, you probably don't have enough equity to make it vulnerable to a Chapter 7 trustee. You must, however, keep up on the payments. If you do not agree to pay this debt "outside of bankruptcy" by signing a "reaffirmation agreement", a lender can repossess your car even if you are current on the payments.
You have to be very sure you can keep making the payments after bankruptcy before signing a reaffirmation agreement because, if you fall behind, you could have your car repossessed and still be stuck with some of the loan.
A Chapter 7 is a unique chance for a fresh start and if you can't keep up with the payments after eliminating your debt in bankruptcy, you should take the opportunity to walk away from the loan and the car by "surrendering" it. You should also make sure you have not "cross collateralized" a loan with a credit card, which some credit card lenders will do if you already have a car loan with them.
You can also "redeem" a car in a Chapter 7. Redemption involves paying off the loan at the value of the car. If you are "upside down" on the loan, this could be a great deal. There are lenders who might be able to loan you the money to redeem your car. We can file the necessary motion with the bankruptcy court and deal with your current lender to work out a payment for you – or argue the matter in front of a bankruptcy judge if necessary.
In a Chapter 13, you can pay your car loan through a consolidation plan. If you purchased your car over 910 days ago, or if the loan is a title loan, then you can "cram down" the car payment in your plan. This means you only pay 100% on the loan up to the cars value, with the rest paid the same percentage as debts like credit cards and medical bills.
Even if you purchased the car more recently, the amount of interest you pay could be a lot less. In addition, the Chapter 13 plan allows you to consolidate all kinds of debt and pay as little as 0% of some of it, which allows you more breathing space to take care of your car loan. The car payments can be spread out five years if necessary too.
Either a Chapter 7 or a Chapter 13 can stop a repossession, though in a Chapter 7 a creditor can get permission to repossess your car fairly easily if you are behind on your payments. In a Chapter 13, as long as you keep the car insured and you make your plan payments, the creditor has to deal you in bankruptcy court.
In some cases, we can even get the car back after it has been repossessed. Your car lender might object to your plan to get higher payments, but we are highly skilled at dealing with them in bankruptcy court.

Mr. Jean-Francois Milou, principal architect and lead partner at StudioMilou, has been conferred the rank of Knight of the French National Order of Merit (Ordre National du Mérite).
On behalf of the President of the French Republic, Ambassador of France to Singapore HE Marc Abensour, conferred the award to Mr. Milou at a ceremony held at the National Gallery Singapore on 16th May 2018.
With this decoration, France wishes to acknowledge the outstanding achievements of Mr. Milou's remarkable career both in Singapore and in France, as well as the valuable contributions he has made to strengthen the cultural ties between the two countries.
Mr. Milou graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris and studied archaeology. He founded studioMilou architecture in Paris in 1997 which quickly became one of the leading French architecture firms. He worked on large-scale cultural and educational projects, such as the School of Fine Arts of Caen or the Cultural Center of Rambouillet.
In order to lead the ambitious project of the National Gallery of Singapore, Mr Milou opened a new branch of his studio in 2008. StudioMilou's proposal was chosen among 111 others to design and build the National Gallery of Singapore, which was slated to open in 2015 for the 50th anniversary of the independence of Singapore.
Mr Milou succeeded in uniting two historical edifices – the former City Hall, created for the British colonial administration in the late 1920s, and the former Supreme Court – preserving their original architectural integrity and celebrating them as a national heritage, while creating a new visual identity for the National Gallery.
The National Order of Merit was established in 1963, under Charles de Gaulle. It rewards distinguished service, civil or military, to France.
Tonight, we are gathered in the majestic Atrium of the National Gallery of Singapore for an official ceremony: to award the Ordre National du Mérite to French architect Jean-François Milou. I am particularly pleased to have this unique occasion to celebrate the achievements of a master designer of forms and spaces in one of his most iconic buildings here in Singapore.
It is your mastery of drawing that led you to study the art of building. You graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris and also have a background in archaeology, a discipline that you consider as a field of architectural research.
Looking at your impressive career, it seems that what guides your architectural practice is a deep motivation to create aesthetic emotion and to find innovative solutions for spaces that serve a greater idea of beauty. I would say that three men coexist in you and are constantly engaged in a fruitful conversation with one another : the aesthete, the entrepreneur and the man of palimpsest.
An aesthete with a highly sensitive approach to design, because you consider that "good architecture is an elegant solution to a complex problem". This design philosophy and your subtle conception of architectural work are clearly visible where we stand tonight.
The idea of drawing a line between the two historical buildings became the signature of your project. By draping them with a metallic roof and veil, you created a fine balance between old and new and achieved a very special sense of timelessness.
For Le Corbusier, "architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light." Here, you used the light, an invisible element, as a unifying agent between the two buildings and filtered it throughout the gallery spaces. You build on the invisible, the same way musicians compose using silence.
A few months ago, the National Gallery opened Century of Light, two major exhibitions including rare masterpieces from the musée d'Orsay, which showed how the Impressionists masterfully captured the transient effects of light on the canvas.
Looking back, it seemed that these luminous artworks had found a second home in this building. I would say just like you in this country. I believe it is because you placed the architectural gesture and the art experience in intimate dialogue and in resonance with each other. This is not only a precious gift to all museum-goers and art lovers, but also a genuine mark of your excellence.
I said an entrepreneur: as an architect, you are trained to constantly negotiate and compose with material constraints, technological needs, curatorial demands and political visions. It is obvious that your ability to factor in all these various dimensions makes you also a great entrepreneur, with a strong vision that extends well beyond the borders of France.
You founded studioMilou architecture in Paris in 1997 and quickly established your practice as one of the leading French architecture firms. Your competence is recognised in large-scale cultural and educational projects, such as the School of Fine Arts of Caen or the Cultural center of Rambouillet.
As a team leader, you expect the best of your collaborators and consider the act of transmission essential. You have the ability to bring together a set of skilled architects, landscapers, exhibition designers and heritage specialists to work on challenging proposals.
In order to lead the ambitious project of the National Gallery of Singapore, you opened a new branch of your studio in 2008 and relocated here with your family. This decision marks a new chapter in your international career and led to the expansion of your practice in Asia.
But beyond the aesthete and the entrepreneur, what characterises you the most is what I call the "man of palimpsest", who is deeply committed to reinventing the past while respecting the complex historical, cultural and political fabric of each project.
Over the years, you combined your passions for prehistory, archaeology and the arts and developed an expertise in international heritage, conservation and rehabilitation of monuments and the creation of museums.
It is not surprising that your first project in the cultural sector was the creation of a museum on an archaeological site, the Museum for the Tumulus of Bougon in your native district of the Deux-Sèvres in central-western France.
Among the many projects that illustrate this dynamic, I can only mention a few: the Comédie de Saint-Etienne (National Theatre Center of Saint Etienne) built from an industrial site, the former harbour station in Cherbourg, Normandy, that you converted into the Cité de la Mer (Maritime Museum), and the former wool-spinning factory in Mulhouse that now houses the National Automobile Museum. In Paris, you also supervised one of the studio's most renowned projects: the restoration and transformation of le Carreau du Temple into a cultural and sports facility in the heart of le Marais district.
The National Gallery of Singapore is of course the culmination of this approach. Please allow me to come back to this remarkable endeavour, because it says a lot about Singapore's identity, about your work philosophy and your relationship to this country.
Your proposal was chosen among 111 others to design and build the National Gallery of Singapore, which was slated to open in 2015 for the 50th anniversary of the independence of Singapore.
Instead of commissioning a spectacular architecture piece that would become a new cultural landmark, the Singaporean authorities decided to restore and reuse two buildings that had major historical significance: the former City Hall, created for the British colonial administration in the late 1920s, and the former Supreme Court.
These buildings witnessed many key events in the history of Singapore: the Japanese Army's official surrender to the Allied Forces in 1945, and the founding of the first independent government of Singapore by Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew in 1959.
Dear Jean-François Milou, you succeeded in uniting two historical edifices, preserving their original architectural integrity and celebrating them as a national heritage, while creating a new visual identity for the National Gallery.
With this major project in Singapore and throughout your career in France and abroad, you have combined both mastery and subtlety of execution and demonstrated a relentless sense of achievement without compromising on beauty, quality or efficiency.
You have also been able to honour the past while providing fresh and new human experiences for present and future generations to reflect upon and to appreciate.
Your active contribution to strengthening the cultural ties between France and Singapore is invaluable. For all the reasons, you are fully entitled to receive this award.
M. Jean-François Milou, au nom du président de la République, et en vertu des pouvoirs qui nous sont conférés, nous vous faisons Chevalier de l'Ordre National du Mérite.

The establishment of a state community college in Gallatin involved the cooperative work of many civic leaders and citizens of Sumner County as well as State officials. A unified proposal for a college was presented to the Tennessee Higher Education Commission in Nashville on September 11, 1967. Upon the recommendation of State Education Commissioner J. H. Warf, Governor Buford Ellington presented the college legislation to the 1969 General Assembly, and it was adopted. Following this action, the Tennessee Higher Education Commission on June 2, 1969 authorized the State Board of Education to establish a community college in Sumner County.
A 100-acre tract of land on Nashville Pike was chosen for the new campus. The property was deeded to the State on December 4, 1969.
The new college was named Volunteer State Community College, and this was approved by the board on July 2, 1970. Ground breaking ceremonies for the first four buildings were held on November 5, 1970. Pending completion and occupancy of the initial campus facilities in early 1972, temporary operations were located in the Cordell Hull Hotel building in Gallatin. Utilizing the hotel and the educational facilities of several Gallatin churches, the College began instruction in the fall of 1971 with 581 students. In 1972, the General Assembly established the Tennessee Board of Regents as the governing board for the State University and Community College System, at which time the central control of the College transferred from the State Board of Education to the Regents System.
Volunteer State has experienced phenomenal growth in enrollment, curricula, staff, program, public service, facilities, and quality throughout its operation. The main campus of Volunteer State now comprises eighteen buildings, and the Volunteer State campus at Livingston continues to grow in every aspect as well. Numerous off-campus operations extend the College's instruction and public service roles throughout its multi-county area. Since its 1971 inception through academic year 2010-2011 more than 134,000 people have attended the College.
Volunteer State Community College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award the Associate Degree and certificates.

The latest Green Bay Packers tailgate steal is located in Appleton, where someone is parting with his custom green and gold 2001 Ford F-150 for just $1,450. That's it. Basically one paycheck and this truck can be yours for the Aaron Rodgers and Danica Patrick Era of Packers football.
I know what you're thinking, "Something must be wrong with it." Quite the contrary! The seller says it's a reliable vehicle, but it looking for a bigger van or SUV for the summer, thus the Packers truck has got to go to fund that purchase.
2001 Ford F-150 with 5.4L V8 engine, 4×2 standard cab, extra long 8′ ft bed and topper, 157000 miles. Features a custom Green Bay Packer tailgate design, with custom green and gold paint-job, historic decals, and tailgate-themed laminate bed. Powered LED Lightning strips are also installed but need a DJ sound/lightning controller which is not included. Trailer hitch installed as well.
Good overall running and overall condition. New ignition coils and battery installed 2017. Only issue is that truck shakes a bit between 40-50mph, but runs perfect below or above those speeds and great on the highway. Some under-body rust typical for a vehicle its age. New tires may be needed for winter, depending on how its driven (though sandbags or weight in back helps a lot in snow).
I have owned it for the past 18 months with no issues, in which it has been a great truck for running around town and hauling, as well as making trips back and forth from Appleton to Green Bay for tailgating and large hauls. I also get waved at, honked at, and screamed at 'Go Packers' pretty much every time I go somewhere.
The seller notes he's willing to listen on best offers, so go ahead and make that $1k proposal and get it done.


As Hurricane Alex swirled around the Gulf producing ten-foot waves and 25 mph winds, 180,000 homebuyers got a lifebuoy that will save them from what could have been a perfect storm of their own. These homebuyers, who signed a purchase agreement by April 30, were likely going to miss the June 30th deadline to complete the purchase of a house to qualify for the tax credit. The House and Senate voted and extended the deadline an extra three months. Great news!
In addition to generating one million new home sales that would not have happened otherwise, the tax credit also pushed home prices up in 20 of the largest cities (the biggest boosts were in cities hurt most during the downturn). The increase represents 3.8 percent growth year-over-year, the biggest rise since 2006. But the news was overshadowed by reports that foreclosures accounted for 31 percent of all home sales in the first quarter of 2010. To put that in perspective, in a "normal" market, foreclosures account for less that 2 percent of sales. The silver lining is this represents a 14 percent decrease from the prior quarter.
A sign that another government based assistance program is helping, borrowers with home loans modified under the federal government's foreclosure prevention effort are less likely to miss a payment. In other mortgage news, the multi-decade low rates are encouraging more people to refinance rather than encouraging people to buy homes. I'm glad to hear people are taking steps to make their homes more affordable, now it is a matter of encouraging potential buyers to take advantage.
In a bit of sobering news, an estimated quarter of all residences with mortgages owe more than their home is worth. According to CoreLogic, borrowers in the hardest hit areas may not be able to break even in a home sale until at least 2020. I think I speak for most people in real estate when I say I hope that is a very conservative estimate.

Although it is a general shad tail, it adopts a variable pitch tail which receives the water pressure at the time of retrieval and closes the flat part and becomes in line with the body. The variable pitch tail blends into the silhouette of the whole body with a tight roll action, directing the bait fish to swim to the surface layer as if it is unprotected. Even for severe bass that will not be able to overlook with I-shaped lures, it can be brought to bite by appealing to food quality with the power of the tail action that produces ultra-fine waves. The variable pitch tail changes from a high-pitch roll action to a slow swing type action when the line tension goes out with no sinker, Carolina rig, down shot and so on.

At 16 Stan Larkin was diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, also known as ARVD, which causes irregular heartbeats and presents immediate risk of sudden cardiac arrest.
Twenty-five-year-old Larkin lived for 555 days without a human heart in his chest.
Last month, he finally received the heart transplant he'd been waiting on.
Stan Larkin was diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD), which causes irregular heartbeats and puts the patient at a highly increased risk of cardiac arrest, at the age of 16 after he collapsed during a basketball game.
Doctors installed a defibrillator in Larkin's chest to regulate his abnormal heartbeat.
After several years with the device and avoiding any strenuous activity, his condition worsened, spreading to both sides of the heart.
It became clear Larkin would need a heart transplant.
Having an o-positive blood type, the most common, put Larkin behind hundreds on the transplant list. Doctors said he wouldn't survive long enough for his name to be chosen.
That's when Jonathan Haft, a cardiac surgeon at the University of Michigan Hospital, suggested that maybe Stan Larkin could live without a heart entirely.
On Nov. 7, 2014, they hooked him up to a massive 418-pound machine that's meant as a stopgap for patients waiting for a transplant. This means it pumped air into valves in his chest that replaced the ventricles.
This machine kept him in the hospital, completely bedridden, but alive.
Christmas of 2014 Larkin received a recently approved technology. It was a portable version of the massive machine that had been keeping him alive.
The portable device is called a SynCardia Freedom Total Artificial Heart, which Larkin carried in a book bag on his back.
Life wasn't totally normal with the device, but he could leave the hospital, and he even played in some basketball games.
Larkin finally received a heart transplant last month.
He had lived for 555 days without a human heart.

On Thursday, 9th of November, Prof. Segbers has chaired a roundtable event at the Association for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies (ASEEES) Annual Convention 2017, taking place in Chicago. Among him, Prof. Irina Busygina and Cosima Glahn have participated and discussed current developments concerning "Populism in Eastern Europe". Unfortunately, Prof. Andrey Makarychev and Dr. Daniel Hegedüs have not been able to attend the roundtable due to flight cancellations. However, roundtable participants and the audience have managed to engage in a lively debate, discussing among others the current support for populist actors in Europe in general and Eastern Europe in particular as well as the manifold reasons for this rather recent increase. Interestingly, although the event had the goal to mainly focus on Eastern Europe, audience members have frequently referred to a comparison of the US case.
The CGP team and the roundtable participants are grateful to the University Consortium for the financial support for this session.

He was noted for his support for the reform of the Church and for his encouragement of its missionary activity. He set up many bishoprics, and he and his wife Cunegunda founded many monasteries. He died in 1024 and was canonized by Pope Eugenius III in 1146.

Other saints: St Teresa of Los Andes
13 Jul (where celebrated)
Juana Fernández Solar was born in Santiago, Chile on 13 July 1900. Her parents Miguel Fernández and Lucia Solar raised her in the Christian faith along with her three brothers and two sisters. She grew up surrounded by her extended family. Juana was educated in the college of French nuns of the Sacred Heart. At age fourteen, she became strongly convinced that God was calling her to the life of a religious.
Juana's desire was realised on 7 May 1919, when she entered a tiny monastery of Discalced Carmelite Nuns in the township of Los Andes, some 90 kilometres away from her hometown of Santiago. On 14 October Juana was clothed in the Carmelite habit and began her novitiate with the religious name Teresa of Jesus. She expressed a fervour for her mission to make God know and loved. Early in the following year Sister Teresa contracted typhus and faced both interior struggles and physical suffering. On 7 April, because of danger of death, she made her religious profession and soon after, on the evening of 12 April 1920, entered into the loving embrace of the God she desired. Juana's life on earth was short, but like those Carmelites named Teresa before her, she discovered the simplicity of faith in living, believing and loving.

State's population is skewing older - Albuquerque Journal
State's population is skewing older
By Maggie Shepard / Journal Staff Writer
Published: Wednesday, July 4th, 2018 at 7:20PM
Updated: Wednesday, July 4th, 2018 at 9:18PM
New Mexico's population is skewing older, but not for the same reasons pushing up the median age in the rest of the nation.
All but one state, North Dakota, clocked a rising median age for residents — mostly because of longevity and decreasing birth rates, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The median age is the age at which equal numbers of people are above it and below it.
But there's an additional reason that adds to New Mexico's higher median age: young people leaving.
"Another contributing factor unique to NM, at least relative to our neighbors, is that we are experiencing out migration among the working-age population and minors," said Jacqueline Miller, a senior research scientist with the University of New Mexico's Geospatial and Population Studies department.
New Mexico's median age in 2010 was 36.7, and the most recently released data show it was 37.8 in 2017.
Searchlight: Brain drain hurts New Mexico
Nationally, the median age of the population in 2010 was 37.2 and 38 most recently.
While the country and states overall are aging, some county-level populations are gaining young people.
The Census Bureau said in a news release last week that almost 1 in 5 counties in the nation are getting younger.
And a swath of counties in the Midwest has skewed younger, a trend the Census Bureau says tracks with migration of Hispanic residents.
"The nation's Hispanic population is young, with a median age of 29.3 compared with 38.0 for the country as a whole. Given that, it is no surprise that the median age is declining in counties with increasing Hispanic populations — especially if the median age was relatively high to begin with," the bureau said in a news release.
In New Mexico, five counties are registering a younger population: Los Alamos, Luna, Guadalupe, Otero and Eddy counties.
But that isn't necessarily attributed to Hispanic migration.
In New Mexico, the median age of the Hispanic population statewide was the same in 2010 as it was in 2017: 30.3. And the Hispanic population in Guadalupe County, one of the counties skewing younger, actually dropped between 2010 and 2017.
A recent report released from the Pew Charitable Trusts shows that New Mexico's population has grown at the slowest rate in the western U.S. during the past decade, with more people migrating away from the state than arriving, according to the Associated Press.

Tapper's plans small, appointment-only jewelry shop in downtown Birmingham
One of metro Detroit's best-known jewelry retailers plans to open a small shop in downtown Birmingham.
Representatives for Tapper's jewelry store went before the city's planning board during its Dec. 9 virtual meeting for approval on a special land use permit and site plan review to open a jewelry store for buying and selling in a second floor suite at 251 E. Merrill.
The planning board got involved because the shop would be open for purchasing jewelry from customers, which technically classified the business as a pawn shop under the city's rules, said Jana Ecker, the city's planning director. Save for that, the business will be fairly low-key: it will not have any signage on the exterior of the building and will be open by appointment only during most of the week.
"If you wanted to sell gold or buy a watch or buy some jewelry, you would have to make an appointment. It's luxury, high end purchases of jewelry," she said. "It is not going to be buying or selling any other things. No TVs or anything like that."
The business would be open to the public without an appointment on Saturdays, Ecker said.

More:Lindstrom shares her talents as volunteer throughout Bloomfield community
The shop would be a different atmosphere than the others in the region, something that comes with being in a small space in a building surrounded by offices.
"Tapper's ... has been in business since 1977. It's a family business," John Henke, an attorney representing the jewelry company, said. "The big draw to Birmingham in this particular instance is, apart from their other facilities, is the safety and confidentiality that's associated with coming into a building inside a suite."
Tapper's has three other locations, all in Oakland County. Other shops operate in Novi, West Bloomfield Township and at Somerset Collection in Troy, and sell jewelry such as rings, necklaces and watches.
Mark Tapper, the president of the company, said a small part of the business could be "collateralized loans," allowing clients to pawn items for loans that they could pay back to receive their item back.
"Lending would be, I assume, a small part of the business," he said.
The planning board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the special land use permit, as well as the site plan for the space. With the recommendation, the item now goes to the city commission for its review and final determination.

Mount Loretto Unique Area: A day at the beach made for everyone

Typically you would think a day late in November would be too cold for the beach, but that wasn't the case on a recent walk at Mount Loretto Unique Area. It was not that hot, but not that cold. You needed a jacket, but not gloves and hats.
The sun was bouncing off the water which was nearly flat, it was so calm.
"It's a nice time of the year," said Glenn Mazzola.
Joe Padalino was not thrilled to hear we were going to the beach.
"I didn't want to get caught in the sand," said Padalino who uses a wheelchair to get around.

But it was a different story when we traveled from the parking lot along the non-vehicular road to the coastal area of the state park. There were two paths to the beach to help people go places they couldn't usually go.

What made it especially nice was Howie Fischer, an experienced birder, met us there. He had his telescope for getting a better look at the water fowl out in the bay which included brant, grebes, loons and ducks.
A black-and-white duck (bufflehead) was one some of us got a good look at. Fischer reported back that he saw or heard 30 species, and he helped us be aware of some of them even if we didn't get a good look.

Reaching the City: Reflections on Urban Mission for the 21st Century
At the 2012 Evangelical Missiological Society annual meeting in Chicago, Reaching the City: Reflections on Urban Mission for the Twenty-first Century was released. This monograph contains the published papers from last year's EMS meeting on urban mission and is available from William Carey Library. Here is a snap shot from the publisher:
Rapid urbanization and globalization processes worldwide have changed the landscape of our times. In Asia and Africa the number of urban dwellers increases by an average of one million per week, according to the United Nations. More than half of the globe's seven billion human beings now live in cities. These realities have far reaching implications for mission in urban contexts at the start of the third millennium. Reaching the City: Reflections on Urban Mission for the Twenty-first Century seeks to address the missiological challenges associated with this new world order.
Each author in this collection respectfully builds upon the significant contributions of seminal writers such as Ray Bakke, Jacques Ellul, Basil of Caesarea and others, while making new and creative proposals for urban mission in our world today. Beginning with the bigger picture of the global challenges of urbanization, and moving through theological, historical, and educational perspectives, this volume concludes with a rich bevy of case studies engaging these new realities of both North American and international cities to encourage a missional thrust to reach these communities.
I had the privilege to write chapter 4, entitled "Basil of Caesarea: An Early Christian Model of Urban Mission." Here's a taste:
"The hungry are dying… . The naked are stiff with cold. The man in debt is held by the throat" (Basil, Sermon 6.6 in Holman 2001, 103). This is how Basil (AD 329–379) described his city, Caesarea of Cappadocia, in the late fourth century, especially amid a lingering famine that plagued his region. As the twenty-first-century church ministering in the world's cities continues to deal with problems such as hunger, usury, corruption, unemployment, displaced peoples, and even slavery, it seems useful to consider some models of urban mission from the church's past. In this article, I will explore the approach to urban ministry by the well-known church father and bishop Basil who is remembered mostly for his contributions to
fourth-century Trinitarian theology. Following a brief survey of his life and call to ministry and the context in which he ministered, I will discuss his practical strategies and theology of mission regarding ministry in the city. In conclusion, I will begin a reflective conversation between Basil and modern practitioners on ministering in urban contexts.

That was an excellent review about the book. It was spot on. Basil of Caesarea: An Early Christian Model of Urban Mission was an excellent chapter and I liked it. Keep updating reviews like this for people like me.

Iditarod race: Dallas Seavey named in doping scandal

Alaskan sledge-dog racing champion Dallas Seavey has been named by officials of the famous Iditarod Trail race for having four dogs which tested positive earlier this month for drugs.
The dogs were found to have traces of the opioid pain reliever Tramadol.
Sealey insisted in a YouTube post that he had done "absolutely nothing wrong".
It is the first time dogs have allegedly been found to be using a prohibited substance since testing in the race began in 1994.
The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race is an annual event that takes place through some of Alaska's most remote areas between Anchorage and Nome.
It has been nicknamed the "Last Great Race on Earth" and traverses 1,600km (1,000 miles) of wilderness.

Competitors and their teams often encounter blizzards, gale-force winds and freezing temperatures.
Reports of the positive test are a major blow to the integrity of the world famous race, the New York Times commentated.
Seavey was named following an emergency meeting of the Iditarod Trail Committee (ITC) on Monday.
"Because of the level of unhealthy speculation involved in this matter, [the] ITC has now decided to disclose the name of the musher involved," it said in a statement. Dog racers are colloquially known as mushers in Alaska.
The committee ruled that Seavey would not be disqualified from next year's race and would not face any disciplinary action because of what it said was an "ambiguous rule" that made it incumbent on them to establish the musher's intent.
But Seavey, after his name was made public, announced he had withdrawn his name from the race to protest against the allegations being made against him.

He has claimed the drugs may have been given to his dogs maliciously as an act of sabotage and that it would be "plain stupid" for him to give illegal substances to them when he knew they would later be subjected to mandatory testing.
He described the proceedings against him as a "a cancer" on the sport.
"I have never knowingly broken any race rule," he said in his 17-minute-long YouTube video. "I have never given any banned substance to my dogs."
"They can try to throw me under the bus, but I'm going to be honest to myself," he said, "and they're going to find out I don't fit under the bus."
He also argued that Tramadol would not necessarily have given his dogs a competitive advantage.
Who is Dallas Seavey?
Regarded as "Iditarod royalty", Seavey, 30, has won the Iditarod Trail race four times
He won the race in three consecutive years from 2014, taking about eight days on each occasion
One of his biggest rivals is his father, Mitch Seavey, a three-time champion and one of the oldest competitors at 57
In this year's race Mitch beat Dallas by nearly three hours, breaking his son's world record in the process
Dallas' grandfather, Dan Seavey, competed in the first Iditarod race in 1973
Dallas is a former wrestling champion and lives 80km (50 miles) north of Anchorage

Although Panda was first rolled out several years ago (and followed by Penguin, an update aimed at knocking out black-hat SEO techniques) it's been updated several times since its initial launch, most recently in September of 2014. The easiest way to find out what search engines have learned about searcher intent is to conduct searches and evaluate the results. Behind The Scenes - The Code Not all websites are created equal. it would make your website rank primarily in the initial pages of SERP, and provide reasonably good ROI.
Search engines are not perfect, and sometimes you will get spam result links that are completely irrelevant to what you are looking for. Your job is to make their lives easier by feeding them properly optimized web content and ensuring that they can find everything you need them to find. Make sure your website is optimised for mobile. When someone is searching for something on a mobile device, Google will now promote websites which are mobile friendly ahead of ones that aren't. There is also no doubt in our minds that it is an extremely good marketing tool for all kinds of businesses and organisations.
A search engine targeting strategy can mean several things. With a payout-planning budget, management establishes a ratio of advertising to sales or market share. By using different ads and rotating them, readers will not get bored, because they will see more than one advertisement for the same product. No matter what business you own you need to be practical.
Search engine optimization has changed a lot in the past few years. Things that used to work great in the past do not work anymore. Other techniques that delivered great results in the past will get your website penalized today. Effective Search Engine Optimisation is a time consuming task which requires experience and specialist skills. Many web site providers claim to provide a search engine optimisation service however extremely few UK websites are currently well optimised if their aim is to achieve page 1 SERPS. It seems like content should be engineered for an outcome. If you just start with an article and then ask yourself how to get traction to this everywhere, that doesn't always work. According to SEO Consultant, Gaz Hall: "Every time a search engine finds your website next to your competitors, it tells them that your company is in a related niche."
DA is created by combining more than 40 individual signals which are tracked and measured by Moz, many of which are Moz's own inventions. Because Google likes sites that link out to good quality content, publishing your own curated content can be a very smart move. I also like to think of off-page optimization as what you do on the Internet, not directly on your website, to improve search engine result placements. One of the reasons your ranking is surging might be you are getting a lot of visits from specific devices or even region on specific days.

The Moment That Made Elyse Fox Break Her Silence on Depression
"I was doing all these amazing things … but I was still struggling."
It's a common misconception that people's circumstances dictate their mental health. Many believe once they get the life they've always wanted—like landing their dream job or moving away from the town they dislike—that all of their mental health problems will disappear.
Elyse Fox, filmmaker and founder of Sad Girls Club, thought the same thing when she scored an incredible media job with ABC. "I thought that all my problems would be solved," she recalls. "I quickly realized that that didn't make me happy. Nothing actually made me happy for a long time. It was always just temporary fulfillment."
That was before Fox understood that what she was experiencing was depression. Part of the problem was the stubborn stigma against having a mental health issue—particularly among African American and immigrant cultures—that inhibits people from talking about these treatable disorders.
"My mom is Caribbean and my dad is American. That caused a really strict household growing up," says Fox. "I was taught in the household, 'You don't cry outside. Whatever happens in this house stays in this house.'"
But just as importantly, Fox didn't see people with her symptoms represented on film and TV. "You'll see a show with a girl in a psych ward and she's in all white. She's in a straight jacket, and that's literally what I thought I had to be if I had mental health issues," says Fox. "I didn't really make the connection because there weren't images of girls who looked like me."
Despite the stigma, Africans Americans are 10 percent more likely to report "severe psychological distress" than Non-Hispanic whites, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Minority Health. They are also more likely to report chronic feelings of sadness and hopelessness—key symptoms of major depressive disorder.
However, African Americans are less likely to seek depression treatment, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. This might be caused by a number of factors: stigma, distrust of the health care system, lack of access to mental health care resources, and not having health insurance.
Ending the Silence
After years of struggling silently with her depression, Fox had a suicide attempt while living in Los Angeles on December 22, 2015. This ended up being a pivotal moment for Fox. "That's when I decided I'm actually gonna get help and change my life for the better," she says.
Since 1999, rates of suicide have risen by more than 30 percent in 25 of the 50 states, reports the CDC. Depression and other mental health disorders are a primary risk factor for suicide, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.
Now that Fox recognized what she was dealing with, she decided to open up about it and be real about what she was going through. "I was doing all these amazing things," she says. "Yeah, I look like I'm happy. I look like I'm doing great things.… [But] I was still struggling during these times."
So Fox put her filmmaking skills to work and created her short film, "Conversations with Friends." In the film, she documents a year of her life with depression, starting with the suicide attempt, to change the narrative of living with a mental illness. "It was my way of 'coming out' to my family about my depression," says Fox.
Fox's film was released in December 2016, and she received a wave of responses from women who related to her story. As a result of the positive response, Fox founded Sad Girls Club, a mental health community for women. (Learn more about the impact of Sad Girls Club on women around the world here.)
"I think now that I'm more open about my depression, it's definitely made life a lot easier," says Fox. "I'm able to reach out to friends when I am experiencing the lows, and I'm also able to support my friends when they're going through things and see those similarities." Here are more tools Fox recommends to manage depression.

00:02 I ended up getting a really dope job at ABC, and
00:05 I thought that all my problems would be solved.
00:09 I finally have the media job that I always wanted.
00:12 And I quickly realized that that didn't make me happy; nothing actually
00:17 made me happy for a long time.
00:20 It was always just temporary fulfillment.
00:27 My name is Elyse Fox.
00:28 I'm a filmmaker and the founder of Sad Girls Club.
00:31 I'm originally from New York City.
00:33 I was born in the Bronx and raised in Brooklyn.
00:35 My mom is Caribbean and my dad is American.
00:38 That caused a really strict household growing up.
00:42 I was taught in the household, "You don't cry outside.
00:45 Whatever happens in this house, stays in this house."
00:56 I thought I knew what mental health issues were, just from what I've seen on TV.
01:00 Like, you'll see a show with a girl in a psych ward, and she's in all white,
01:04 she's in a straitjacket, and
01:06 that's literally what I thought I had to be if I had mental health issues.
01:10 So I didn't really make the connection,
01:12 because there weren't images of girls who looked like me or
01:17 who were going through just really bad long days the same way that I was.
01:22 So it wasn't until I was an actual adult that I made the connection.
01:33 For 11 years, I didn't take any medication or do any treatment,
01:38 any mental health treatment.
01:40 I just kind of lived with it as my day-to-day norm.
01:43 It wasn't until I was 23 that I seeked help.
01:46 I had my first suicide attempt while living in Los Angeles.
02:03 That's when I decided that I'm actually gonna get help and change my life for
02:06 the better.
02:08 Once I was back in New York City,
02:09 I just began documenting everything that was going on around me.
02:15 Just thinking, I was doing all of these amazing things, and yeah,
02:18 I look like I'm happy, and I look like I'm doing great things.
02:21 And my family thinks that I'm a bit better, but
02:24 I was still struggling when I was at South by Southwest.
02:27 I was still struggling when I was doing this really cool job;
02:29 I was still struggling during these times.
02:31 And I changed the narrative a bit to be more real and
02:35 to just start a bigger conversation.
02:37 It was my way of coming out to my family about my depression, and
02:40 I released that film in December of 2016.
02:43 And that's where Sad Girls Club was born.
02:51 I think now that I'm more open about my depression,
02:54 it's definitely made life a lot easier.
02:57 I'm able to reach out to friends when I am experiencing the lows, and I'm also able
03:03 to support my friends when they're going through things and see those similarities.
03:06 And just know that, okay, I'm going through this too; you're not alone.
03:15 But I had been experiencing all the effects throughout my whole life;
03:18 I just didn't know how to define it.
03:20 I didn't know what the word depression or anxiety even meant, so
03:24 it was kind of hard for me to educate myself about it.
