Positioning a development to meet the needs of its future community
Johnson Property Group
To position the development effectively, we needed to uncover and define the unique brand benefits or truths of the development, the needs and values of the ideal buyer, and the vision for the future community.
Giving employees a voice to inspire authentic direction for a brand
Willana
Willana were seeking an outward expression that was as strong as their outcomes and customer experience. They wanted to build a brand from the inside-out, starting with their team who desired to be a part of, and grow, something meaningful. It wasn't just about a visual identity or a new website. With their whole team we helped to uncover the collective values and vision to give every team member and an opportunity to connect to a future direction and brand of Willana.
Actualising a company vision
Urbane Property
It's not often you meet someone like George Nikos – a visionary in every sense of the word. I discovered his passion for his industry, his community, and particularly the future potential of his company, ran deep. You could feel his energy through the phone. Despite his clear drive and enthusiasm though, he felt like he hadn't been able to express that vision in a way that engaged his people and his clients. He needed help.
helping a ceo drive change in his industry
Austability
David, CEO of Austability, approached us as his company was going through some structural changes – he was looking for a strong voice for the brand and clarity for his team around who they were as a business and what they stood for. As soon as we met David, we knew he was a moral and passionate man, dismayed by the current solutions offered by his industry and determined to bring the issues to light and offer something more valuable. He just needed his brand to both reflect and amplify this purpose.
building a platform for innovation
Innx
The visual and verbal identity for INNX stems straight from its purpose. It embodies self-direction, uprising and innovation. It speaks directly to those who believe what we believe – in forging their own path, embracing change, and pollinating ideas to create the future.
innovating financial services and mobilising people around a purpose
Cass Kavanagh, CEO of Rethink (or the Little Big Boss, as they like to call her), had a vision for her company beyond what any rational human could understand – but luckily, we aren't rational. People like Cass are the pioneers who create the future, and we believe in her vision.
amplifying a voice: aligning an entrepreneur with her ideal community
Hunter Design School
Donna, founder of Hunter Design School, is no shrinking violet. Like most entrepreneurs, she has enough ideas and energy to keep her up till all hours of the morning. But how do you create focus for a brand when there are so many possibilities?
driving growth and innovation through meaningful collaboration
Banlaw
Banlaw have been transforming fuel and hydrocarbon management for clients in the mining, rail, port and fleet industries for over 35 years. For the past seven years we have worked alongside their team to clarify, express and transform their business and brand.
building a values-based community
Through collaboration with JPG, we uncovered Vermont's story and build a purpose-driven strategy, creating a connected estate with a defined purpose, and inspiring families across Sydney who believe they deserve more, to move to the awakened estate.
stepping back and seeing more: extending the impact of a development through meaningful purpose
Of all the projects we've worked on with long term client, Johnson Property Group, Watagan Park would have to be one of our favourites. Working with Braden, Deputy Managing Director, to help him step back and see the full potential of the development beyond an outer identity was truly rewarding.
uniting an estates natural qualities with our shifting values
Johnson Property Group believe a home is like the hub, the foundation for potential in our lives – and they endeavour to help people build that foundation and see them flourish in the communities they create. Their boutique land estate in the Hunter Valley, with its peaceful location and sweeping blocks, provided an opportunity to address and serve the shifting values of families.
bucking the status quo in a conservative industry
Nexus Law Group
The world has changed. Today the business landscape is constantly evolving – companies need more efficiency, agility and flexibility than ever before. When it comes to law, we discovered clients want no-nonsense, honest and accurate guidance so they're free to focus on what really matters to them.
Giving hope where it's needed most
Working with The Salvation Army Australia to help to tell the story of how we can all give towards something greater than ourselves.
cultivating generosity – Red Shield Appeal 2016
Building a resilient platform for change
Fitted for Work
The team at Fitted for Work believe women are a catalyst for creating a more socially cohesive and prosperous society, which is why they work tirelessly to ensure all women are given the capacity to secure employment.

Why Rotary? Mike Brousseau
What is the minimum legal age to gamble in BC?
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Kidney Foundation or the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Janice, thank you from your family for everything you did for us and all the fun times we had with you. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Canadian Cancer Society. She has asked that in lieu of cards or flowers that a donation to Covenant House be made in her name. The Sisters of St. Ann greatly appreciate the staff at Mount St. Mary Hospital for their excellent and loving care. Blessed with great health most of his life, he succumbed to a massive stroke in 2017. We are so very sad to say goodbye to our much-loved matriarch Margaret Marcia Vallee after a long life lived with humour, generosity and spirit. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Alzheimer's Society of BC.
That decision is affecting not only Franco-Ontarians, but also francophone communities across the country.
Will be sadly missed by other family and friends especially Randy Nicol..Special thanks to the nurses and staff at McNally House and CCAC for all their care and support.
They eventually sold to Oxford Industries, a Georgia-based company in the early 2000's.
In the following year, the new parish daycare center was also completed.
Mark is survived by his loving wife and his precious two daughters .
With all Lions having busy lives, it is important to keep them engaged and interested so they are inspired to come to meetings and events. Having more Lions involved will eliminate 'burnout' and provide a sound base to attract new members – the future lifeblood of any Club. The Squamish Lions are big supporters of the Food Bank, volunteering their services twice monthly with the food distribution program to over 100 families in the community. The Squamish Lions were amongst 40 other local service clubs, businesses, community groups and families, presenting scholarships to the Howe Sound Secondary School grad class of 2015.
There are three 14-foot bay drive throughs where equipment is stored and always loaded and ready to go; this has improved response times and extended the life of the vehicles and equipment. The building is energy efficient with solar panels, and in floor heating provided by a gas boiler. Hundreds of hours are spent in training volunteers for these specialized rescue missions. In 2019, the hours donated by members equates to $131,560 of "in kind" contribution, although not available yet the official stats for 2020 call outs increased by 30 percent. With COVID protocols hundreds of extra hours are required to ensure health and safety requirements are met. Although the First Responders Gala was not able to be held, Rotary wants to acknowledge the dedicated and hardworking individuals that keep our community safe. A special thank you to Len McLean of McLean Construction, Osoyoos who again funded the awards. After attending a workshop called "Trauma Practices during COVID", Marieza shared some disturbing trends. The RCMP report that they have a 900% increase in domestic violence calls. Desert Sun services have had an increase of 100 – 150 people accessing services.
He also wanted to take advantage of the copious foreign dollars that were pouring into Canada to influence the outcome of the last election against resource development.
He will be remembered for his kind eyes, bright smile, warm heart, firm handshake and his innate ability to touch the hearts of those whom he met.
Pat cherished many friends over the years including her friends from St. Ann's, her Fridays lady's group, and her friends from St. Michael's.
Along with usual Zone business, guests Julia Minnie and Patrick Stafford-Smith from the Special Olympics and Vancouver Adaptive Ski Program respectively joined us for special presentations. The station at Brennan Park started off a little slower but gained momentum as the soup ran out at the school. Lion Brad Hodge led a team made up of committee member Kim Lacombe and her son Kaiden. Leanne Hodge was also present representing Squamish Savings conducting surveys. Thank you to District staff Tim Hoskin for his support. The station at Squamish Elementary opened at 3pm when the bell rang and was finished handing out 75 litres of hearty, healthy, hot vegetable soup within 15 minutes. Lion John Drinovz led a team comprised of two elementary school volunteers who handed out the soup while representatives from Squamish Savings conducted surveys to better understand who was there and what they thought of the Project. The Squamish Lions would like to extend a big thank you to Squamish Elementary School Principal Ms. Margaret Paxton for her support of the project.
He began with a thanks to Rotary for all that we do in the community. He stressed the positive working relationship in council and believed it to be open and transparent environment and sited all the consultative task forces with the community as examples. Sounded like one more is coming with engaging the public on the waterfront development. He has many years experience retail and hotel management.
John Robertson won the 50/50 today and generously donated it to the scholarship fund. It was interesting to find out that Tara was a Rotary exchange student to Africa when our club and Oliver were one in the late 90's. Another reminder for the Olive/Osoyoos Hospice fundraiser at Frank Venables Theater in Oliver on Saturday at 7pm…Cheryle has tickets. Gail announced she is recruiting for an Ambassadors Team for Destination Osoyoos. Volunteers will work for DO in projects, events and activities as hosts and ambassadors …should be easy and fun! Sue conveyed the thank you's from the Art Council for Rotary's continued support and contribution to the community. She also thanked Rotarian Jim King for writing a grant that enabled the Art Gallery a badly needed face lift. Vaughn introduced our guest speaker Sue Whitaker who sits on the Arts council board and is well noted in Osoyoos for her painting. She has also become well known for her Lantern Making, thanks to Moon Curser who asked her to teach lantern making at their lantern festival. President Judy reminded us of the Light up this weekend where we will be serving hot dogs and hot chocolate.

Yah, there is a cradle pin on the front axle, and then standard centerpins for steering articulation. Back axles are fixed. I'm thoroughly impressed with this little machine. At roughly 7' 2" wide, and 14 feet long, it really gets around for thinning nicely. Working it right now in easily 16-20 inches of snow. We're in the process of getting another foot or two now.
Yes, Transmission R 1 2 3 on dash. Reverser on right hand side of seat. H/L on left hand side of seat.
That skidder actually has a V4 wisconsin in it?
Sure does. There were two engine options for this model/serial number. I'll attach the flyer that pettibone sent me for this machine.
Is there room for a chevy 4.3?
Not in my fuel budget there isn't !! It's fairly spacious in there, the biggest concern I have would be room for radiator. The wisconsin is air cooled.
I'm going to do my best to keep the wisconsin going, but have been thinking about re-powering with a diesel since prior to bringing it home.
Check CL , California, goldcountry. Pettibone 5. Five pictures.
Couldn't find it on craigslist.
Mike, that Pettibone bulletin is really kool.I hope you enjoy the skidder as much as the goats do.
Wow, it shows the 4 cy jimmy for the diesel option. I assume a 453, and they have it turning 2600 rpms, they wind that puppy up.
I have to wonder if a guy needed to swap out one of those wisconsins for a diesel, how much trouble it would be to put an air cooled duetze in one.
Starmac, reading my mind (The duetz air cooled that is)! Not sure what the horse power options are. I figure 50-60 hp would be plenty from a diesel.
I doubt the wisconsin puts out any more than that. I don't even know what the duetze is rated at, but guys that have them in skidders sure seem to like them.
The f3l912 deutz I have is 37 or 47 kw which is 49 or 63 hp. Quiet, and easy on fuel.
The 4.3 in my rock junk is pretty reasonable on gas probably 5 or 6 gallons a day. But I'm usually chugging it around below 2000 rpm. If it was injected it'd probably be better.
I am thinking a 4.3 would have to be kept wound up to have the needed torque in a skidder, but I don't know what their torque is, so just guessing.
4.3 is a fairly torquey engine. Another cheap reliable piece would be a ford straight six but room might not be available.
For cheap diesels, if you cant find or cant justify the premium expense of detroit/duetz/cummins stuff.. id consider a mercedes om617 from the 240D and 300D cars. Theyre 3.0 inline 5 turbos with a bosch MW pump. Very good engine.
The f3l912 deutz sounds perfect!!!
Can you post some pics of the deutz ?
I grabbed these pictures off the internet, my Deutz is buried in a friends shop.
Quick search says 44kw which converts to 59 hp and 201 kg which converts to 639 lbs. that seems high because I can shuffle mine around on the shop floor ok.
Chapman services over in Troy might have one if you want to put a tape measure to one.
I got $2500 for a 4cyl version. Theyre right up there with 4BT pricing.

53998 Views | 8 Comments [edit]
I don't belong, I speak the language
but still I can't understand what's going on
So I'm running to you just as fast as I can
Don't want to settle in, this place is not my home
I am a stranger in this world, just passing through...
I won't be home til I'm with you
For Anthem Lights--an innovative, high-energy pop foursome with soaring vocals and hearts bent on ministry--"Stranger" is more than another song. It's an identity, a way of life they've embraced. It's a powerful truth that impacts every decision they make, underscores every lyric they write, and every note they sing.
"As followers of Christ, we were not made for this world," explains Anthem Lights member Alan Powell. "We don't belong here. And all the self-doubt and insecurity and struggling to fit in, it's all part of believing the lie that we're supposed to be 'at home' here. God created us in His image--there's nothing to doubt about that! We're here to love others and be Christ in the world. The closer we get to Christ, to being what we were created to be in this world, our value of what this world values begins to fade."
It's an important message for misfits of any age, but especially for millions of teenagers struggling to find a well-lit place in an increasingly dark world.
The group's infectiously melodic self-titled debut delivers 10 powerful anthems sure to leave a ripple effect long after the CD stops spinning.
Anthem Lights can trace its roots back to the fall of 2007, when singer/songwriter Alan Powell joined forces with then aspiring solo artist Chad Graham. Both were living in Los Angeles at the time, to pen songs for Chad's solo effort. But providentially, the more they wrote, the more it became clear that these powerful, harmonic songs were meant for a group. Within a matter of days, the pieces fell into place, when two other Liberty University students--Caleb Grimm and Kyle Kupecky--came on board, "When God put the pieces together," says Powell, "we just knew it was right. Everything just fell into place... like it was meant to be."
After months of writing, recording and prayer, Anthem Lights signed with Reunion Records and began fleshing out what would become its self-titled debut.
"These songs were born out of what we've experienced over the past couple of years, spiritually," Powell continues. "We've had to learn some very difficult lessons about who God is and who we are. We've gone through moments where we felt really close to the Lord, really felt Him at work in our lives, and then very real moments when you feel you're going around in circles and can't find Him at all. I think we've just tried to be really honest about what that darkness feels like and yet make it clear that 'the Light always wins.'"
With four extremely gifted vocalists and a wealth of songwriting talent, Anthem Lights is a force to be reckoned with. But from the beginning, notes Powell, "We were intentional on being more than just another pop group. We understood our calling, that we were meant to be more than 'music business.' We were called to share the Light we've been given. To build people up. To lead the way."
"So many people get up and chase what they chase," adds Caleb Grimm. "There's no real reason to wake up in the morning, no real reason to live. But Christianity is supposed to be everything to us... it's not just a free ticket to heaven. It's everything. Pop music is just the medium we use to get the Gospel out there."
"We take this ministry very seriously," says Chad Graham. "God has always been leading us down this path, and so we want to use what God has given us to get this message out to people who need it: 'Your life has purpose and meaning in Christ.' We all struggle with the idea of perfection, and we all stumble and fall, but that purpose for our lives never goes away. And God never, ever gives up on us."
Produced by Juan Otero and Seth Moseley, aka The Write Brothers (Newsboys, Me in Motion), and Rob Hawkins (Fireflight, Chasen), Anthem Lights' debut carries a message of hope and purpose for believers and non-believers alike. From the gloriously contagious pop of "Can't Shut Up" and the danceable energy of "Outta My Mind," to more tender moments like "I Wanna Know You Like That" and "Can't Get Over You," Anthem Lights infuses a little something for everyone on its stunning debut.
With an arsenal of influences including dcTalk, Michael Jackson, One Republic, Stevie Wonder, Gavin DeGraw, tobyMac, and Justin Timberlake, Anthem Lights has fashioned a dramatic pop experience that is all their own... a rarity in today's music scene.
"I feel like we landed in a really original place," says Powell of the band's sonic approach. "We wanted it to sound big, textured, layered, to give you that feeling of being swept away, and to really connect with pop music fans. But we wanted it to have an edge too. Live instrumentation is important to us as a group, so we wanted to keep that authenticity and accessibility... incredible keys, real guitars and real drums. With those barometers, we were confident in our producers and their great musical sensibilities."
But ultimately, adds Kyle Kupecky, it's the message behind the music that ignites and inspires every note. "It comes down to the three things we love: music, entertainment, and Jesus... And the greatest of these is Jesus. We're here to help people know who Jesus is and connect on a deeper level with Him. For those who don't know Him, we want to make that introduction, to say 'your life has a bigger purpose.' There are such hedonistic messages in our culture--from music, movies and TV--'if it feels good, do it,' but we want to give them something that speaks to their soul, to encourage them and support them as they grow up in Christ. And for believers, we just really want to start a fire in them."
Kyle Kupecky left Anthem Lights in 2013 to start his solo career. Jesus had been speaking to him for some time and Jesus spoke to him that it was time. Chad,Alan and Caleb were sad to see him go, but were excited for him in this new adventure with God. In May the guys announced that Joseph Stamper would be joining the group. Now Kyle Kupecky is starting his new adventure with God, releasing powerful music well Joseph Stamper is fitting right in with the group. He has an incredible voice and a heart for God. Kyle Kupecky is missed, but as he continues his own adventure with God, Joseph Stamper is starting his!

Amazing Men of God | Posted July 22, 2013
I was introduced to Anthem Lights at the Rock and Worship Roadshow in 2012. Feel in love with their songs and their songwriting. Their love for God is for real and there is no doubt of how much these men are changing lives through their music and their ministry. Their music (and God) have changed my lives and I wish them the best and that God will continue to pour blessings through their ministry.

They may not be original, but they do make very fun and catchy music, a niche not filled by many Christian artists. Most importantly, they love God with all their hearts and voices!

Amazing! ♥ | Posted July 09, 2012
Anthem Lights is a great band. They add a pop twist to Christian music and keep it all about God. I saw them in concert once and they were great. I hope to see them a lot more in the future.

Meet my man! Vanessa Hudgens cuddles up with new boyfriend Austin Butler as pair make their couple debut
By Sarah Bull
Updated: 07:54 EDT, 21 September 2011
They had been rumoured to be dating earlier this week after he was spotted leaving her house.
But now Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler have officially confirmed their relationship, by indulging in a passionate display of affection over a milkshake.
The new couple struggled to keep their hands off each other as they popped in to Bob's Big Boy diner in Burbank to grab a sweet treat in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Meet my man! Vanessa Hudgens kissed and cuddled new boyfriend Austin Butler as they stopped for a milkshake on Saturday night
Looking smitten with her new beau, Vanessa leaned in for a kiss and cuddle before the couple left the diner arm in arm.
But a source close to the High School Musical actress, who split from Zac Efron earlier this year, said she isn't taking her new relationship too seriously.
The insider told Hollywoodlife.com: 'It isn't a serious thing at all. She's having fun hooking up with him but no official relationship has flourished yet.
'It's a friends with benefits situation.'
Cuddling up: The pair left Bob's Big Boy diner in Burbank arm in arm after their sweet treat
Smitten: While the pair looked very cosy, friends say they are not in an official relationship and it's more of a 'friends with benefits' situation
Yesterday, Butler, a 20-year-old Disney actor, was spotted leaving Vanessa's home in Los Angeles.
Wearing black jeans, black trainers and a printed white t-shirt, the blonde star walked out of the 22-year-old High School Musical star's house to a car parked nearby.
Austin, who once played Jamie Lynn Spears's love interest on Zoey 101, recently co-starred in the Disney movie Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure, alongside Vanessa's best friend Ashley Tisdale.
Family outing: Vanessa was spotted leaving a nail salon yesterday with her mum and sister in the Toluca Lake neighbourhood of Los Angeles
Quick getaway: Austin rushed to his car and kept his head down as he tried to avoid having his picture taken while he left Vanessa's house yesterday
He also regularly guest stars on the ABC Family series Switched at Birth and has previously appeared on CSI: New York, Life Unexpected and Ruby & the Rockits.
The actress recently wrapped filming a gritty role as a pregnant teenager in low-budget movie Gimme Shelter and has been enjoying a bit of free time.
Earlier this year, she was rumoured to be dating her Journey 2: Mysterious Island co-star Josh Hutcherson.

Madison County is working with U.S. Steel Corp. to process applicants for the 500 positions that are supposed to be filled during the next few months at Granite City Works.
Hundreds of people showed up for a mid-March career fair, but the majority of the jobs are expected to go to those workers who were laid off since December 2015. Those who apply are required to pass a drug screening and background check before moving to the next round, which includes testing being done by Madison County Employment and Training.
Worker recalls were expected to begin in late March and continue over four months.
Starting March 15, county workers were on site, learning the testing protocol from human resources staff from U.S. Steel in Pennsylvania. The county is being paid by U.S. to conduct the testing.
Madison County personnel were expecting to spend about three days a week at the plant for many weeks, said Sarah Lorio, the work-based learning coordinator for Madison County Employment and Training.
Essentially, the county is acting as an employment agency.
Both Granite City Works blast furnaces and its steelmaking facilities were idled in December 2015 and the plant's hot strip mill was idled in January 2016 in response to what the company said was global excess steel capacity and unfairly traded imports. The pickle line, cold mill and finishing lines at Granite City continued to operate in line with customer demand. The hot strip mill was restarted in February 2017 as the company adjusted the hot strip's operating configuration to meet customer needs. The mill's "A" blast furnace remains idled.
Madison County's new role became apparent in a hurry once U.S. Steel made the announcement the first of March, on the heels of the president's announced plan for tariffs against countries — primarily China — that were dumping cheaper steel on the U.S. market.
"We'd heard rumors the last couple of months that there were indications things were going to be starting back up, but there was no official announcement to us that it was coming, and especially not this quickly," Director of Employment and Training Anthony Fuhrmann said.
She said the majority of 500 new workers are considered to be "utility workers" for which one year of practical experience would be needed, in areas like operations, production or manufacturing. A high school diploma or GED is required.
Part of the county's efforts is in creating a "talent pipeline," she said.
The county has done large-scale testing previously.
"When Phillips 66 (in Roxana) has big hires they'll reach out to us and we'll do the testing. We've done it on site for them, and we've also done it at our facilities in Wood River," Lorio said.
The testing is done on a fee-per-person basis with U.S. Steel reimbursing Madison County Employment and Training, Fuhrmann said.
Lorio said she did not yet know what the county's role would be after the testing facet ends, since the mill will have its own office personnel in place.
Besides the union positions, U.S. Steel is also hiring more than a hundred nonunion, administration positions, including HR people, Fuhrmann said.
The salaried and wage jobs available include those in production, maintenance, management, safety, quality and more. Several of the positions are for shift managers, safety and industrial hygiene, security and fire officers, electrical maintenance technicians, mechanical maintenance technicians and utility persons.
Many of the jobs are swing shifts.
It is hard to pin down just how many people might be hired for the first time at the mill. At one point some 1,500 workers were idled of 2,000 who had been employed. Many of those laid off have retired, moved away or gone on to new jobs.
Anyone interested can find the job listings at www.ussteel.com/work/jobs.
Following layoffs at the plant in 2015, Madison County Employment and Training, in association with the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity and Local Workforce Investment Areas, provided a range of services to displaced workers, including job retraining.
Some of the workers will be new to the trades, others will have some experience, but all will have to pass a drug test.
Fuhrmann and Lorio were asked if companies were more concerned now about those they hire being able to pass a drug test.
"A lot of employers also complain about a lack of soft skills," Lorio said.
To which Fuhrmann added: "Showing up on time. Getting your first paycheck and coming back. Working as a team with other people. There's a whole list of those (desirable traits)," Fuhrmann said.
Does the county have the manpower to hire this many individuals at once? In this case, yes, because people are always looking for good paying jobs. The starting rate for an entry level utility worker at the mill is more than $20 an hour.

Q: Excel interop libraries incompatible with ASP.NET? I have a simple web application which uses the Excel Interop libraries to read and insert into an Excel spreadsheet. I'm taking my due diligence to ensure that I don't use two dots and to ensure that all COM object references are released by using Marshal.ReleaseComObject() and GC.Collect(), but there is still an EXCEL.EXE process running on my server.
I've created a Windows Forms application that uses the same object releasing process as in my ASP.NET app, and it ends the process successfully. Is there something involved with using the Interop libraries with ASP.NET that I've overlooked?
EDIT: As a shot in the dark, maybe permissions need to be set up in a specific way on the server? I'm using <identity impersonate="true"/> in my web.config file and am a local administrator on the server.

A: I'm not sure this is exactly an answer but I have worked a lot with ASP.NET and Excel Interop and can offer you some of my observations / pointers.
If you use Task Manager you can see which user is still running EXCEL.EXE process - it's most likely the AppPool Identity.
From experience when the app pool recycles this will close Excel.
Also you may notice that if you run your script again a second Excel opens and will close!
For reference, here is my Close Excel code:
xl.Quit();
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(xl);
xl = null;
GC.Collect();

"Our Mother" Writing and Photo Exhibition is being held continually in Seoul and six metropolitan cities in Korea, and catches people's attention. The exhibition, which was held from June 20 to July 4 amidst passionate support and great attention from audience at the Gangnam Church in Seoul, was held again as an encore at the same church. By this, a total of the number of the audience that visited the exhibition held at the Gangnam Church reached over ten thousand.
The exhibition which is hosted by the Church of God and organized by the Melchizedek Publishing Company continues to be held in seven cities in Korea from September 5 until October. It was decided to go nationwide because the citizens who visited the exhibition at the Gangnam Church repeatedly asked to let more people have an opportunity to come and see it. For this, the Seogu Church in Daejeon had the opening ceremony of the exhibition with distinguished guests on September 5 and started its exhibition extensively, so did the Nakseom Church in Incheon on September 10, and the Suyeong Church in Busan on September 24.
The contents of the exhibition and the organization of theme zones became more diverse and rich with many objects than the exhibition held at the Gangnam Church in Seoul.
In October when autumn reaches its peak with colored leaves, the exhibition is going to be held in Daegu, Gwangju and Ulsan in order. Mothers are the source of power that enables children to live on. Mothers' love touches everyone regardless of age and nationality, and becomes a timely rain and softens dried and rough hearts of our neighbors.

5 champagne brands the royals buy that you can afford too (with bottles under $50)
Published Fri, May 18 2018 9:27 AM EDT Updated Fri, May 18 2018 9:34 AM EDT

Need some bubbly to accompany those crumpets and scones at your royal wedding watch party this Saturday? Stick with the theme and opt for a champagne brand that even Her Majesty would approve of.
A select number of products — ranging from umbrellas to cheese — preferred by the royal family have earned an official seal, dubbed a royal warrant. Royal warrants have been doled out by the British royal family since the 15th century, according to the New York Times, which says they, "are a mark of distinction for companies who have provided goods and services for at least five years to Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip or Prince Charles."
A number of champagne houses have been awarded a royal warrant, and while some bottles cost in the thousands, here are a few affordable options from brands that have the royal family's seal of approval.
This brand of bubbly was first awarded a royal warrant by Queen Victoria in 1884. The Royal Warrant Holders Association describes Champagne Bollinger as having a "distinctive range of Pinot-Noir driven champagnes," and claims that the brand has had close ties with the U.K. since 1958.
Champagne Bollinger is known for its "instantly recognizable, dry, toasty style," according to Wine.com, and it's made via a lengthy aging process. While the Bollinger La Grande Annee Brut 2005 will cost you over $100, you can snag a Bollinger Brut Special Cuvee (a half-bottle, non-vintage), hailing from Champagne, France, for barely over $40.
Champagne Lanson
Champagne Lanson holds a royal warrant and is touted as "one of the oldest existing champagne houses" dating back to 1760. The brand has been associated with the Wimbledon tennis tournament since 1977 and was recently selected as the official supplier of champagne for the championships. Its wines are described as "extremely fresh, crisp and elegant."
While some bottles might set you back quite a bit, popping open a Lanson Black Label Brut (a non-vintage sparkling wine from Champagne, France) will only cost you around $40 on Wine.com.
That yellow-labeled champagne bottle you see all around the top social events in the U.S. — from polo classics to pool parties — also carries weight across the pond.
Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot is another brand of bubbly that holds a royal warrant. "From cricket at Lord's to the Goodwood Revival, Veuve Clicquot is the perfect complement to the most exclusive and must-attend events of the year's social calendar," the Royal Warrant Holders Association's website states.
Treat yourself to its classic Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label half-bottle (non-vintage sparkling wine from Champagne, France), for just under $35 on Wine.com.
The family-owned Champagne Louis Roederer company, founded in 1776 in Reims, France, holds a royal warrant, and its slew of champagnes even includes the original, prestige cuvee made for Tsar Alexander II, according to the Royal Warrant Holders Association.
While some bottles are pricey, you can still snap up a bottle of Louis Roederer Brut Premier (non-vintage sparkling wine from Champagne, France), for a little less than $50 on Wine.com.
While this wine might not hold a royal warrant, it was reportedly served at Prince William and Kate Middleton's 2011 wedding, so if you're aiming to drink like a royal on Saturday, it gets the job done.
Chapel Down is a British brand of bubbly that is known for its sparkling and still wines, and says its sparkling wines are created with fruit sourced from southeast England. Its website also states that Chapel Down supplies wines to the likes of Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, and is served at the Royal Opera House. While Chapel Down's Brut Rose was reportedly poured at Will and Kate's wedding, opt for a bottle of Chapel Down Brut Classic (non-vintage) sparkling wine for $45 on Wine.com.

The Roane County Sheriffs Department says the vehicular death of Cary Smith, 38, on State Rt. 36 near Newton-Wallback on August 1, happened after the 2000 Jeep Cherokee he was driving crossed the center line and collided with a 2009 GMC Sierra truck belonging to Community Resources, Inc.
The CRI truck was a weatherization vehicle operated by the agency.
The driver of the CRI truck, according to Sheriff Todd Cole, was Nathaniel Joel James, 31, of Normantown.
James was air-lifted to a Charleston hospital, while three other passengers were taken to the hospital by ambulances from Roane, Clay and Kanawha County.
The sheriff's report identified the passengers as Travis Bell, 30, Mark Husk, 45, and Mike Welling, 38.
Spencer Newspapers reported that the four CRI employees are no longer patients at CAMC General in Charleston.

The Church Fathers or Fathers of the Church are influential theologians and writers in the Church, particularly those of the first five centuries of Christian history. The term specifically refers to writers and teachers of the Church, not saints in general; usually it is not meant to include the New Testament authors.
Who are the Fathers?
Those fathers who wrote in Latin are generally called the Latin Fathers, and those who wrote in Greek the Greek Fathers. The very earliest Church Fathers, of the first two generations after the Apostles of Christ, are usually called the Apostolic Fathers.
Famous Latin Fathers include Tertullian, St. Augustine of Hippo, St. Ambrose of Milan, and St. Jerome, the translator of the Vulgate; famous Greek Fathers include St. Irenaeus of Lyons (whose work has survived only in Latin translation), Clement of Alexandria, Origen, St. Athanasius of Alexandria, St. John Chrysostom, and the three Cappadocian Fathers, Ss. Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian, and Gregory of Nyssa. There are many more, however.
The Desert Fathers were early monastics living in the Egyptian desert; although they did not write as much, their influence was also great. Among them are Ss. Anthony the Great and Pachomius the Great. A great number of their usually short sayings is collected in the Apophthegmata Patrum.
A small number of other Fathers wrote in other languages: Ephrem the Syrian, for example, wrote in Syriac, but his works were widely translated into Latin and Greek.
Though the Roman Catholic Church regards the 8th century St. John of Damascus to be the last of the Church Fathers, the Orthodox Church does not consider the age of Church Fathers to be over at all and it includes later influential writers in the term.
The Consensus Patrum
It should be noted that not all of the Fathers are considered to be saints, and certainly none of them are regarded as infallible, most especially those who fell into heresy, such as Tertullian and Origen. The Orthodox Church looks rather to the consensus patrum—that is, the consensus of the Fathers—for its understanding of the patristic Orthodox faith.

I am trying to patch my SLES11sp2 server to the latest and greatest (using ZLM).
But obviously I get the same error when I manually try to update the RPM's.
So the requirements for the latest RPM's changed, so I needs gnutls installed on the server.
Where do I get an offlicially supported version of the gnutls RPM's?
I found them for SLES11sp1 on the opensuse website, but these are not supported obviously.
The dependency changed between 2.32.2-4.7.1 and 2.32.2-4.11.1 .
It updated two packages: libgnutls26 and libsoup-2_4-1 successfully.
So you simply have to install libgnutls26, which is officially supported.
Nice workaround, using SP1-Updates for resolving SP2 problems.
Can somebody from SUSE please comment about the missing "provides" in libgnutls26 ?
OK, thanks. I found the RPM's on the ZLM server and installed them.
So SuSe just forgot to include these in the SLES11sp2 repo, but not in the SLES11sp1 repo??
Is there an official place where to report this, or should I open a bug in bugzilla?
That explains why it didn't work.

Like it or not, National League designated hitters are on deck
The Herald-Mail
By BEN WALKER
Before all the self-proclaimed purists forecasting the destruction of baseball strategy and the very sanctity of the sport as we know it go berserk bemoaning the inclusion of a designated hitter in the National League this season, remember this:
In a most remarkable October full of huge momentum swings, the pivotal blow that decided last year's World Series was delivered by, yep, the NL DH.
OK, that clang resonating off the right field foul screen at Minute Maid Park — courtesy of Howie Kendrick's home run in Game 7 for the visiting Washington Nationals — probably won't drown out the wailing of longtime National League fans over the plan to play this virus-delayed season with a (gasp!) DH in both circuits.
And it certainly won't quell the debate that's raged since April 6, 1973, when Ron Blomberg of the New York Yankees stepped to the plate at Fenway Park as Major League Baseball's first DH (and drew a bases-loaded walk from Luis Tiant).
To many NL fans, the simple scribble of "DH" on the lineup card sullies the whole stadium. To lots of AL fans, the mere sight of a pitcher touching a Louisville Slugger is a total affront to the diamond.
No matter, that's part of the proposal MLB owners are making to players — a full-time DH in the National League, same as the AL. This year, only.
Jim Riggleman has managed and coached in each league and seen both sides.
"During this abbreviated season I'm OK with it," he wrote in an email Monday.
"In general, I think the NL game is a much better game. The pitcher's AB is not the point. It's all the ramifications that the pitcher hitting has on the strategy of the game. More interesting game and tougher game to manage with pitcher hitting," he said.
With that, let's take a meaty cut at what this might mean as NL DHs get limber with the lumber:
WHO'S UP?
Kyle Schwarber (Cubs), Nick Castellanos (Reds) and Dominic Smith (Mets) made it to the majors with their bats, not gloves. They'd be natural fits.
Christian Yelich (Brewers), Yoenis Céspedes (Mets) and Hunter Pence (Giants) are coming off injuries. The DH spot would give them a break from the daily grind.
Kevin Cron (Diamondbacks) hit 38 homers in Triple-A and six more for Arizona. With first baseman Christian Walker coming off a breakout season, Cron could have a new slot.
Justin Turner (Dodgers), Ryan Braun (Brewers) and Jay Bruce (Phillies) are among older players who might see time there. The Nationals (Ryan Zimmerman, Starlin Castro, Eric Thames and Kendrick) and the Rockies (Daniel Murphy and Ian Desmond) could rotate. Nick Markakis and Adam Duvall would benefit in a crowded Braves outfield.
Max Scherzer, Masahiro Tanaka and Adam Wainwright are among the aces in recent years to be injured either batting or running the bases. With a stop-and-go spring training and a desire to ramp up quickly to regular-season speed, no one wants to see pitchers get sidelined doing something besides throwing.
Who does this rule hurt? Start with Madison Bumgarner, the power-hitting pitcher who signed with Arizona. He loves to hit and once toyed with entering the All-Star Home Run Derby. The Diamondbacks would probably rather put up someone paid to bat.
Jacob deGrom, Clayton Kershaw and Stephen Strasburg likely will keep excelling. But their ERAs are likely to take a hit — those NL lineups will look a little more imposing.
Sonny Gray (Reds), Sandy Alcantara (Marlins) and Chris Paddack (Padres) all start for teams that struggle to score runs. With the DH, managers might let them stay in longer, instead of pulling them for a pinch-hitter.
Yasiel Puig doesn't have a team. He combined for 24 homers and 84 RBIs with Cincinnati and Cleveland last year and remains a free agent.
Matt Adams (Mets), Logan Morrison (Brewers) and Greg Bird (Rangers) signed minor league deals in the offseason and, if they prove they've still got pop, could be low-priced options. NL rosters were pretty full when the shutdown came in March, but now there figures to be rejiggering.
SPEAKING OF STATS
For every entertaining home run trot by the likes of a Bartolo Colon, don't forget: Pitchers hit a whopping .128 overall last year. NL twirlers were better at the dish — they hit .131, while their AL counterparts flailed at .087.
There aren't many like Shohei Ohtani out there. Nelson Cruz, Edwin Encarnación, J.D. Martinez and Miguel Cabrera are easy DH fits in the AL. The NL side will be more of a scramble.
With extra playoff teams, no doubt guys like Jorge Soler, Daniel Vogelbach and Corey Dickerson could become trade targets come October or whenever the deal deadline is set.
The move to NL DHs will surely wind up sacrificing one part of the game that traditionalists love to tout: bunting.
NL teams put down an average of 35 sacrifice bunts last year, led by the Dodgers with a majors-high 55 (they also led the NL with 279 home runs). AL teams averaged just 16, and the Angels had the fewest with only four.
Pitchers bunt the most — when they disappear from the plate, so will a big piece of strategy that's been around forever.

Catholic agencies closely monitor giving after clergy sex abuse shock
/ November 7, 2018 /	535

By Dennis Sadowski
WASHINGTON (CNS) — Leaders and fundraisers at Catholic organizations are cautiously monitoring the level of donations and gifts as the end-of-the-year giving season approaches, hoping that the clergy sexual abuse scandal won't negatively affect their bottom line.
While most of the professionals contacted by Catholic News Service said it is too early yet to see what effect, if any, the abuse crisis may have on giving, some are taking steps to reassure donors that money contributed to vital ministries is not going for settlements to abuse victims or payments to attorneys.
The crisis is just one factor that concerns the leaders. There's also the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act. It's effect on giving remains a question mark. "People remain confused about it," said Franciscan Sister Georgette Lehmuth, president and CEO of the National Catholic Development Conference.
"The main thing is no one knows. It's way too early," Patrick Markey, executive director of the Diocesan Fiscal Management Conference, told CNS.
Beyond that, some organizations have offered the expertise of their members to individual dioceses and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in areas of communications and finances as the bishops prepare to publicly address the abuse crisis during their fall general assembly Nov. 12-14 in Baltimore.
One effort to prevent a drop off in donations has been initiated by Catholic Charities USA. Dominican Sister Donna Markham, the organization's president and CEO, sent a letter to all donors Oct. 31 expressing concern about calls to withhold donations to any Catholic institution.
"This concerns me deeply," Sister Markham wrote. "I am very worried about the consequent impact this will have on many children and families living in poverty or on the edges of poverty right now."
The letter continues, explaining that Catholic Charities agencies annually serve 10 million people nationwide with emergency food, health care and other services. "Catholic Charities donations do not fund the bishops to the dioceses and cannot be used for that purpose," the letter said.
In an interview, Sister Markham said, "Anybody who is working in Catholic organizations right now is being hit by the fallout from the abuse crisis. We have been faced with some of our significant donors saying, 'No more money to Catholic Charities until the bishops straighten out this mess.'"
She said any impact will be known only after the holidays. "But people are calling us daily saying, 'Take me off your mailing list,'" she said.
"The issue here is that if anyone is really concerned or worried that somehow their donation will be misdirected and be used to fund the abuse situation, I think they need to be clear that we are not allowed to do that," Sister Markham added.
It's the devotion to mission that Sister Lehmuth holds up as key to helping the Catholic organizations weather any potential loss in donations.
She said her organization has urged development professionals at Catholic entities to "remind people how your money is being used."
"Don't wait until the end of the year," Sister Lehmuth said. "Keep reminding them what good your money is doing. And remind them of the good that the church is doing too."
Donations to the Catholic Near East Welfare Association have remained stable in recent years, but the organization is continuing to press how it is helping Christian communities in troubled areas of the world, according to Michael J. L. LaCivita, director of communications.
He said Catholic organizations are facing "a perfect storm" in the abuse crisis, the tax cut law and partisan political rancor in the U.S. that has caused people to carefully weigh where to send their money.
CNEWA has received letters from donors expressing anger about the bishops' failure to maintain moral authority over the church, LaCivita told CNS. He described the letters as "well thought out," offering carefully crafted words that express people's moral outrage.
"But the correspondence doesn't hold us responsible," LaCivita said, even though some writers have voiced concern that funds could be used for abuse legal settlements because bishops serve as the organization's trustees.
"People want answers and they want to have their anger heard," he added.
At The Catholic University of America, fundraising has continued to meet annual goals, said Scott Rembold, vice president for university advancement.
"We're not hearing a lot of people holding the university accountable for the crisis," Rembold told CNS, saying about 125 people had contacted the school since June when reports surfaced that Archbishop Theodore E. McCarrick had allegedly abused seminarians years ago. Of those, about two dozen said they were not going to donate specifically because of the reports, he said.
The crisis has caused the university to put on hold a plan to build a residence for priests taking graduate level courses. Rembold said the project called for a new wing to be added to Hurley Hall with a kitchen and chapel.
Because bishops were involved in raising money for the effort, university officials and the bishops on the board of trustees jointly felt it was best to put the project aside and that it could be reviewed in the future, Rembold said.
In a different path, two organizations have reached out to the bishops offering expertise and action steps to address the anger and concerns that people have.
Foundations and Donors Interested in Catholic Activities, or FADICA, convened a working group to address the abuse crisis. Alexia Kelly, the organization's president and CEO, told CNS that members generated "ideas and questions and recommendations and opportunities for action either together or independently."
"Our members really feel they have a responsibility as donors and philanthropists not to perpetuate practices or lack of practices that may enable or perpetuate abuse," she explained.
FADICA members will convene in February for the organization's annual meeting to discuss its recommendations to the USCCB.
Donors want to ensure, Kelly said, "that adequate safeguarding practices and policies are in place in all the ministries they support inside or outside of the church, and they would continue to explore ways they as philanthropists can support a comprehensive culture of safety in all levels of the church."
Meanwhile, at the Leadership Roundtable, lay Catholic professionals from various fields have stepped up to offer their expertise to assist the bishops as they addressed the sex abuse crisis.
The organization formed after the 2002 sex abuse crisis emerged with the goal of providing dioceses with lay experts who could help institute best practices in offices and ministries to ensure trust.
Kim Smolik, Leadership Roundtable's CEO, said the organization has received calls from more than 50 dioceses seeking assistance since the August release of a Pennsylvania grand jury report that examined a 70-year period, beginning in 1947, in six Catholic dioceses. The report said that in that time span there were claims that 300 priests and other church workers had abused about 1,000 minors. It also claimed the church covered up abuse allegations and brushed aside victims.
Roundtable participants are stressing to dioceses that communication is key, Smolik explained, adding that donors are unlikely to withdraw their gifts, but that they want to know that the church is addressing the root causes of the current scandal.
"Laypeople are looking for the church to be responsive and repentant and say what has gone wrong. They are looking for a plan forward, looking for the plan to be implemented and they are looking to be communicated with all along the way," Smolik said.
"Laypeople want to be part of the solution."

Media Release: Football academy starlets become recycling ambassadors
PLAYERS at Forth Valley Football Academy (FVFA) are now ambassadors for recycling, as part of a new partnership with one of the UK's top waste resource management companies.
From this month the young players, from under-11s to under-17s, will proudly display the logo of FCC Environment on their season 2015-16 home and away strips.
The deal, which will start this month, was officially announced at Falkirk Stadium prior to the big game between promotion-chasing rivals, Falkirk and Hibernian. Falkirk FC technical director and FVFA ambassador, Alex Smith, welcomed the young players on to the pitch at half-time to pose in their new strips.
Jamie Swinney, FVFA head of operations, said: "On behalf of everyone connected to the academy, I would like to express our gratitude for the support FCC Environment will be providing towards our continual progress in player development.
"Within FVFA, we are constantly striving to improve our environment and enhance the experience for everyone connected to it. This partnership will enable us to support the further development and provision of our young athletes.
"We are delighted to have secured such a fantastic partner and look forward to working closely together over the coming months."
The partnership between the two companies goes beyond assistance with a new strip.
Educational sessions will also be organised for the young players to help to inform them about the rapidly-changing world of recycling.
As experts in energy recovery and the creation of Green Energy from waste, FCC Environment will be working to teach the youngsters about the importance of recycling.
Stuart Mander, from FCC Environment, said: "We're thrilled to announce our partnership with the FVFA.
"As well as supporting what is a fantastic project for young people we also hope to help spread the word about the importance of recycling.
"We're committed to Scotland and the region and we're working hard to bring as much as we can to the community."
Forth Valley Football Academy – an unique and innovative partnership between Scottish FA, Falkirk, Stenhousemuir and East Stirlingshire Football Clubs based at Scotland's University of Sporting Excellence, Stirling University – is recognised as the first regional football academy in the UK and operates within the elite tier of the Club Academy Scotland youth development programme.
FCC Environment is one of the UK's leading waste manage resource companies and recently signed a contract to provide waste collection services for Falkirk Council.
In addition, the company is also in the process of building a new recycling and energy recovery facility in Midlothian for 'Zero Waste: Edinburgh and Midlothian', a partnership between the City of Edinburgh and Midlothian Councils.

Recently, D-VA and R-SD presented the Senate Act 3401 to help users who are self-employed or otherwise earn from non-traditional resources gain easier credit for housing. Legislation indicated that creditors have turned away from credit to these customers because of excessively stringent or equivocal government regulations to document consumer incomes.
If adopted, the bill would give mortgages creditors more flexible documentation of proceeds during the subscription procedure. You call the bill the Self-Employed Military Access Act. Confederate rules stipulate that for most secure home loan transactions, a creditor must make a fair and bona fide decision that the borrower will have a fair capacity to pay back the loan on the basis of (among other things) the proven disposable income of the borrower.
In order to exploit the assumption of conformity with this provision, most creditors comply with the Qualified Mortgages (QM) railings, some of which are described in Annex X of the Annex. Annex A generally prescribes the kind of revenue records a creditor must receive. An example is Annex X for a self-employed person (any user with a stake of 25 per cent or more in a business), which states that a creditor wishing to perform a QM must receive the user's undersigned, date personal return with all relevant plans for the last two years.
In the case of a corporate body, "S" corporate body or unincorporated firm, the creditor must receive a copy of the Swiss trade earnings declaration with all relevant trade earnings plans for the last two years. Annex Q does not explicitly foresee flexibilities in these documentary requirements. In contrast, Annex Q allows a worker with an earned salary, as indicated on IRS Form W-2, a wide range of trustworthy supporting evidence, such as an IRS copy of his/her VAT declaration, Form W-2s or similar IRS form, pay slips or employer's record.
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Housing Administration's (FHA) subscription policies allow some degree of freedom for the self-employed by replacing declarations and timetables with copies under certain conditions. Mortgages have criticised the QM-Reling in general and Annex Q in particular for violating accepted subscription standards and excessively restricting affordability.
Whilst many creditors dare to take on non-QM credit (among other things to satisfy the needs of self-employed borrowers), these creditors often have to assess non-QM credit to mirror the additional compliance/process risks. While the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) has extensive powers to review Annex Q and the QM credentials and has sought contributions from the general community to improve them (in June 2017 and March 2018), early advocates of the Act appear to be seeking a legal settlement.
Upon its entry into force, the Self-Employed Mortgage Access Act would offer alternative Annex II treatment for all kinds of borrower (although it appears to be directed at self-employed borrower and others receiving non-W-2 income). In particular, the bill would allow creditors to adopt revenue documents that meet the requirements of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or a Federal Home Loan Bank, pending Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) approvals.
It would also allow the use of revenue documents that would be fulfilled by the FHA, the Ministry of Veterans, the Ministry of Agriculture or the Rural Housing Service. "The rules currently give QM to any loan that can be purchased from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (if the loan fulfils some fundamental criteria), although this automated state expires on 10 January 2021 (or if the companies are dismissed from guardianship).
Alternative ways of documenting the law, if implemented, would be effective in ensuring that the patches survive the upcoming period.

The grapes are big. So are the bunches. As a whole, this year's crop looks to be outstanding, Walter-Peterson said.


Built in 1831 over the Thames River, the London Bridge was retired after more than 130 years when it began to sink under the weight of 20th century traffic. After the bridge was sold by the city of London to entrepreneur Robert P. McCulloch, the bricks were numbered and shipped through the Panama Canal before they were reassembled here at Lake Havasu. Discover this iconic piece of history only half a mile from our hotel.
