What is it about British literary scholar and author C. S. Lewis-the Oxbridge don and self-described "very ordinary layman of the Church of England"-that touches millions of readers so deeply, making him the most widely read Christian spokesman of our time? In these lectures you will cover Lewis's spiritual autobiography and other creative works, as well as his scholarly writings that reflect on pain and grief, love and friendship, prophecy and miracles, and education and mythology. Learning from Lewis And what is the full span of what you can learn from Lewis? He created eloquent religious apologetics such as Mere Christianity and spiritually penetrating novels such as the Chronicles of Narnia series and Till We Have Faces. He wrote essays, memoirs, and scholarly books that continue to repay study, spark debate, and strike profound chords. Lewis's works have continued to gain in power and popularity over the last half-century. Much has been written to assess his lasting legacy and why he has had such a profound impact on 20th-century readers. As well as delving into the plots of Lewis's enduring works, you will consider questions such as: -From the magisterial Oxford History of English Literature to children's fantasy books, how did Lewis write with such brilliance and coherence across so many distinct and demanding fields? - What were the people, events, and influences that shaped his thought, his character, and the spiritual drama at his life's core? - What do Lewis's fictional and factual autobiographies reveal about his conversion and his efforts to "explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times"? - How did he argue for his ethical notion of "the Tao"-a nonrelative set of standards, held widely across all cultures, which modern ideologies often distort? - How did he use his apologetical writings to come to grips with perennial spiritual questions involving miracles; the meaning of suffering; the reality of heaven and hell; and the nature of choice, sin, and salvation? -How do his scholarly works analyze modern prejudices about the past and offer a vivid, accessible defense of medieval and Renaissance thought? An Award-winning Professor Professor Louis Markos is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and has won teaching awards at both the University of Michigan and Houston Baptist University. He presents this course as a sympathetic, deeply felt exposition of Lewis's multifaceted thought and works, making no secret of the fact that he is a longtime and enthusiastic fan of Lewis's writings. "C. S. Lewis's works do not exist in an abstract realm of pure thought. Instead, to paraphrase Wordsworth (a major influence), they are proven in the blood and tested along the heart," says Dr. Markos. Clive Staples Lewis: A Life Reflected in Writing Because so much of his life was reflected in his works, to understand C. S. Lewis the writer it is essential to know C. S. Lewis as a man and literary figure. Clive Staples Lewis (Jack to his friends) was an Irish Protestant, born in Belfast in 1898. A happy childhood ended when his mother died in 1908 when Lewis was nine and his father decided to send him to boarding schools that he despised. Fortunately, he met tutor William Kirkpatrick and under his guidance was accepted to Oxford University. He entered as a confirmed atheist, but under the influence of friends he met there-J. R. R. Tolkien among them-Lewis became a Christian. His newfound faith changed him completely, and in 1933 he quickly composed a fictional account of his conversion: The Pilgrim's Regress. Over the next 15 years, he wrote prolifically. Everything he wrote, sacred or secular, was related to his Christian faith. During World War II, he agreed to deliver a series of broadcast talks on the Christian religion, which were later collected as Mere Christianity. In 1954, Lewis was elected Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. He would build the rest of his life around that university and his Oxford home, the Kilns. About this time, Lewis befriended and later married Joy Gresham, a divorced American Jew who had converted to Christianity. After three years of marriage, however, Joy died of cancer. Lewis was devastated and wrote a moving account of his sadness: A Grief Observed. Lewis died on November 22, 1963, just before his 65th birthday. Lewis's Beliefs: His Nonfiction Works Professor Markos has crafted this course to focus in the first six lectures on Lewis's personal convictions and thought, concentrating on his nonfiction works. In covering Surprised by Joy and The Pilgrim's Regress, Professor Markos argues that Lewis's real biography is the story of his spiritual pilgrimage. Why did he see his movement toward Christianity in terms of joy and desire? How did this influence his apologetics? "One of Lewis's goals was to bring philosophy-and theology-back to the world, to embody it in flesh and blood, and to breathe into it the healthy air of common sense. His life, his thought, his work were profoundly incarnational, like the God he worshipped," says Professor Markos. "If you wish to take Lewis's works seriously, you must accept them as creations of passionate thinking: of the spiritual brought down to the physical, of experience carried up into reason." In addition to being a popular writer, Lewis was a major figure in the academic study of literature. You will learn that in his scholarly work, Lewis sought to challenge common modern prejudices and to gain a hearing for the views held by people in past ages. Lewis's Tales: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Allegory In Lectures 7 through 11, we turn to Lewis the fictional novelist: -The unfallen world of Perelandra in the Space Trilogy (1938-45) -The beloved Chronicles of Narnia (1950-1956) children's series for which he is perhaps best known -Till We Have Faces (1961), a mature and beautiful reworking of the Cupid and Psyche myth whose heroine is patterned after Lewis's wife, Joy. All five of these lectures offer synopses of the key plot elements in each work and explore Christian allegories that lurk just below the surface of each tale. Professor Markos brings the series to a close with a discussion of A Grief Observed, Lewis's intensely personal account of his desolation in the wake of his wife's death and the long and painful journey that brought him back to faith.

How can I Encrypt all UIN elements?

A: It looks like your xml was not correctly encoded, so I can't see your document structure, however I would guess that using the SelectNodes() method of the XmlDocument class instead of SelectSingleNode() would do the trick.
You may also want to look at some of the Linq to XML capabilities if you need to output the transformation to a new XML doc.

Silent march against anti-Christian violence in Rajasthan
Thousands of people—Christians, Muslims and leftwing leaders—march in state capital to protest violence against Christians. We are Christians and we love our land, but we won't give up our right to defend the life God gave us, says bishop of Jaipur.
Jaipur (AsiaNews) – Thousands of Christians marched in silence yesterday through the streets of Jaipur, the capital of the state of Rajasthan also known as the Pink City, to protest the rising number of acts of violence perpetrated against Christians in the state. Groups of Muslims and leftwing lawmakers also joined the rally, which was organised by the People's Union for Civil Liberties and ended in front of the state legislature. Mgr Oswald Lewis, bishop of Jaipur, and Mgr Ignatius Menezes, bishop of Ajmer, were also present.
"It was a peaceful protest," Bishop Lewis told AsiaNews. "I spoke about the contribution of the Church to India's development and progress. I stressed that we are all Indian and that India is our beloved motherland, the land in which we are rooted."
The bishop here was speaking to the Hindu nationalists' slogans heard at anti-Christian protests and attacks, namely that Christians "should go back to where they came from" and that their institutions "are Western bastions" in India.
The prelate also used the occasion to respond to the accusations made by the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party or BJP, India's largest political party, which has repeatedly attacked "Christian missionaries for practicing terrorism" against tribal communities and has been trying to have an "anti-conversion" law passed by the local state assembly.
"The commitment of the Church," Bishop Lewis said, "is focused on rural areas not out of a desire to convert its people as our detractors claim, but because they are the ones most in need, first and foremost medical and educational needs, that no one else is willing to satisfy."
He added: "I wanted to provide official figures about our health facilities, hospitals and mobile dispensaries and other institutions run by the Church. In all of them, anyone can come in without concern for caste, faith or creed."
Finally, he said: "I also made it clear that, as Christians, we preach the Gospel of love and forgiveness and pray for our persecutors, but we also won't give up our right to defend the life God gave us. This march is meant to highlight the persecution, the intimidations and the dangers we Christians face even though we, too, are Indian".
During the rally, participants also publicly condemned the arrest of Bishop Samuel Thomas of the Emmanuel Mission International for publishing a book allegedly offensive to Hindus. Similarly, they slammed the numerous attacks against Christian missions and "re-conversion ceremonies" that are increasingly imposed on Tribal people.
Remond Kohilo, president of the Rajasthan Christian Fellowship, said that "the real motive behind this [the rally] is to stop attacks on Christians. During the past few weeks and months, there has been a lot of opposition and atrocities committed against us, our communities and our institutions. And our children should not be made to suffer because of the situation."

Pick up a copy of the Linden Hills Phone Directory and you will find the names of people in our community of faith. Here are some first names: Nancy, Peter, Rachael, Christine, Christian, Charlie, Sally, Kurt and Lionel. Also, there are pictures of families helping identify them.
A good Lenten practice is to page through the Church Phone Directory. Remember a name with a picture. Take your time. Do several pages a day. That way you can become better acquainted with families in our faith community.
Another good Lenten practice is to find the original meaning behind your first name. My name Daniel means "God is my judge." What does your first name mean? How are we living up to our names?
Many of us were named at our baptism. We were marked by God as loved and filled with loving worth. We were given a new humanity in Christ. Some of us made a believer's confession of faith to live the Christian life. Again, we were affirmed as Disciples of Christ. May you be true to your name and I mine.
These Lenten days be faithful to the name given to you and witness to God's love in your life and into the lives of others.

Q: How to insert filename from cell into excel formula? I have a bunch of .csv files that have IDs that I am trying to insert into a formula. The IDs are all listed in column F. Here is F in my sheet:
F
701
684
128
701
485
701
...

Each CSV file is in a folder and titled the exact contents of F plus .csv so "701.csv" "684.csv" etc. Here is the formula I am trying but is not working:
=VLOOKUP(D1, F1 & '.csv'!$B:$C,2)

This formula works fine if I replace the "F1 & '.csv'" portion with just the ID like so:
=VLOOKUP(D1, '701.csv'!$B:$C,2)

But I don't want to have to manually enter the ID for every single row (there's hundreds of rows).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

A: I believe you are going to need an INDIRECT function call to get Excel to understand what you are trying to do.
=VLOOKUP(D1,INDIRECT("'"&F1&".csv'!$B:$C"),2)
If you use a formula to derive the text string, rather than a static string, you will usually have to use INDIRECT().  This includes any use of concatenation.
Be aware that INDIRECT is a volatile function, meaning it is recalculated with every change in the worksheet, and can cause sluggish performance in large sheets.

La cathédrale de l'Assomption-de-Marie de Pinsk est une cathédrale et basilique mineure située à Pinsk, dans le voblast de Brest, en Biélorussie. Sa construction débute en 1712 à un emplacement où l'on précédée plusieurs églises en bois depuis le , la dernière ayant été incendiée durant la Grande guerre du Nord par les Suédois en 1705. Il s'agit alors de l'église conventuelle d'un monastère franciscain. Elle est consacrée en 1730, mais les travaux ne sont alors pas achevés et il faut encore attendre plus de trente ans pour que la façade soit terminée en 1769.

L'église est complétée au  par un campanile dont la construction débute en en 1817 et s'achève dans les premières années du . Dans l'intervalle, le monastère a été dissout en 1835 et elle est devenue une église paroissiale. Après la création du diocèse de Pinsk en 1925, l'église est élevée au rang de cathédrale, mais est fermée par les autorités soviétiques de la Seconde Guerre mondiale à la dissolution de l'URSS.

Farnham's Freehold is a science fiction novel by American writer Robert A. Heinlein. A serialised version, edited by Frederik Pohl, appeared in Worlds of If magazine (July, August, October 1964). The complete version was published in novel form by G.P. Putnam later in 1964.

Farnham's Freehold is a post-apocalyptic tale. The setup for the story is a direct hit by a nuclear weapon, catapulting a nuclear shelter containing Farnham, his wife, son, daughter, daughter's friend, and employee into the future. While writing the story, Heinlein drew on his experience of building a fallout shelter under his home in Colorado Springs, Colorado in the 1960s.

Plot
Hugh Farnham, a white middle-aged man, holds a bridge club party for his alcoholic wife Grace, law-graduate son Duke, college-student daughter Karen, and Karen's friend Barbara. During the bridge game, Duke berates Hugh for frightening Grace by preparing for a possible Soviet nuclear attack. When the attack actually occurs the group, along with Joe, the family's black servant, retreat to the fallout shelter beneath the house.

After several distant nuclear explosions rock the shelter, Hugh and Barbara become sexually intimate, after which the largest explosion of all hits the shelter. With only minor injuries, but with their bottled oxygen running low, the group decides to ensure that they will be able to leave the shelter when necessary. After exiting through an emergency tunnel, they find themselves in a completely undamaged, semi-tropical region apparently uninhabited by humans or other sentient creatures. Several of the group speculate that the final explosion somehow forced them into an alternate dimension.

The group struggles to stay alive by reverting to the ways of the American pioneers, with Hugh as the leader—despite friction between Hugh and Duke. Karen announces that she is pregnant and had returned home the night of the attack to tell her parents. Barbara also announces that she is pregnant, but without mentioning that her pregnancy resulted from her sexual encounter with Hugh during the attack. Karen eventually dies during her labor, due to complications, along with her infant daughter the next day.

Grace, whose sanity has been challenged by all these events, demands that Barbara be forced from the group or she will leave. Duke convinces Hugh that he will go with Grace to ensure her safety, but before they can leave, a large aircraft appears overhead. The group is taken captive by blacks, but is spared execution when Joe intervenes by conversation with their captors' leader in French.

The group finds that it has not been transported to another world, but instead is in the distant future of their own world. A decadent but technologically advanced black culture keeps either uneducated or castrated white people as slaves.  Each of the characters adapts to the sudden change in black/white roles in different ways. In the end, Hugh and Barbara reject the new era of slavery they find themselves in and attempt to escape, but are captured. Rather than execute them, Ponse, "Lord Protector" of the house to which they have been enslaved, asks them to volunteer for a time-travel experiment that will send them back to their own time.

They return just prior to the original nuclear attack, and flee in Barbara's car. As they drive they realize that while Barbara had driven a car with an automatic transmission, this car—the same car in every other respect—has a manual transmission, and Farnham deduces that the time-travel experiment worked but sent them into an alternate universe.

They gather supplies and flee into the hills, surviving the attack, and live out the rest of their lives.

Reception
In a contemporary review when the novel was published in 1964, Kirkus Reviews stated that the "characters have souls of wood pulp" and that "The satire on fall-out shelters, race and sex lacks inspiration."

The SF Site described Farnham's Freehold as "a difficult book", and stated that "At best, [it] is an uncomfortable book with some good points mixed in with the bad, like an elderly relative [who] can give good advice and in the next breath go off on some racist or sexist rant. At worst, Farnham's Freehold is an anti-minority, anti-woman survivalist rant. It is oftentimes frustrating. It is sometimes shocking. It is never boring." The critical work The Heritage of Heinlein describes Farnham's Freehold as not "an altogether successful novel" and that the book's sexism "may be a crucial flaw."

Charles Stross has rhetorically asked whether "anyone (has) a kind word to say for ... Farnham's Freehold", and then described it as the result of "a privileged white male from California, a notoriously exclusionary state, trying to understand American racism in the pre-Martin Luther King era. And getting it wrong for facepalm values of wrong, so wrong he wasn't even on the right map ... but at least he wasn't ignoring it."

The New Republic, while conceding Heinlein's desire to "show the evils of ethnic oppression" states that in the process, Heinlein "resurrected some of the most horrific racial stereotypes imaginable," ultimately producing "an anti-racist novel only a Klansman could love."

Freeholders
The name "freeholders" was adopted by some survivalists in the 1980s in reference to the novel.

An intro series is a great way to break down the basics of yoga and help cultivate a person's confidence to attend public classes or to simply create a home practice. This is your opportunity to practice doing just that! As preparation for this practicum, create a basic outline of a 6-week "Intro to Yoga" series. Come prepared to teach one 60-minute "Intro to Yoga" class to the group. This workshop is open to yoga teachers only, and is part of our 300-hour Advanced Teacher Training program.
Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a potent psychobiological method for resolving trauma symptoms and relieving chronic stress. It can reset the nervous system, restore inner balance, enhance resilience to stress and increase people's vitality, equanimity and capacity to actively engage in life. It is the result of the life's work of Dr. Peter A. Levine. Yoga is the powerful art and science of bringing the body, mind and heart into the present moment. It offers varying tools for being present and integrating the layers of our being into a united and functional whole. But when the nervous system is stuck in the past due to trauma and chronic stress that is unresolved, then these tools don't always work well.
Safe and informed asana practice requires careful attention to cuing and the cultivation of interoceptive awareness within the student. In this workshop, Robin will guide teachers on how to slow down practice and take students into an educational experience of functional movement, utilizing adaptive asana coordinated with breath. This focused and mindful process deepens practice for all levels of practitioners, as it allows time for internal assessment, assimilation, and refinement.
So how would one break down the basics of this vast body of practice in 6 weeks and inspire and inform someone who may have never stepped foot inside a yoga studio?? This interactive workshop aims to spark your creativity for teaching an intro series.


I've been wanting to get back into cycling for some time now. However, Texas summers and winters allow for only a few months of comfortable riding and I want to work on my conditioning all year round. So, I decided to go with an indoor exercise bike. Wanting to stay in the $200 range I looked at a number of bikes, but most of them did not have the features I was looking for. Owning a number of Titan Fitness products I decided to look at their Pro Indoor Cycling Exercise Bike and found that it had everything I wanted and it was on sale for $198 and shipping was free. So, let's take a close look at this bike.

Have you ever needed your logo, but you couldn't find it on your hard drive?
Ever needed to access your website, but realize you don't have the username and password?
Ever wanted to use a photo from your website in a campaign, but couldn't find it in your files and a copy of the photo from your website doesn't look good?
Sadly, they gave all of the original photos to the web developer and the site was built completely in code, so they can't edit it themselves to get out of hot water with their insurance company. Could they have prevented these problems? You bet.
Many business owners hire friends or family members to build their websites for them. The fact that so many website platforms encourage this kind of application is helpful to you when you're just getting started. Your website is built and you say, "Oh awesome, it's great. Thanks!" and you pay your bill or take your friend out for dinner. Whatever. But here's the step you don't take, and it costs you later. You don't get the very important files that belong to you. You paid for them. They are yours; not your web developer's. Not your graphic designer's. They are yours. If your bill includes photos from Shutterstock, you need those files. If your designer created your logo for you, you paid for her time to do so and those files now belong to you. If you don't get the files you paid for, it's like having someone build you a beautiful bookcase, but you only get a picture of it. Not very useful.
Photos, images: If your designer uses any photos or images on your website, you need copies of them and you need proof that they are legal to use. Request the original file, not the cropped file.
Logo: If your designer created a logo for your website, you can re-use this in other applications. You paid for your designer to create the logo, so it's yours. Request a copy of the file, and in several formats if possible.
Original Documents: If your designer created downloadable forms, make sure you get a copy of the original files. This way, when you have edits to make to it, you can do so in the original file and not have to re-create the form.
Username and Password: Make sure you know how to access your website.You never know when your website developer or designer is going to take another job, be too busy to help or fall out of favor with you. Stuff happens: be prepared!
Taking the time to get these files will save you money down the road. If you decide to update your logo, you can give your designer the old one and they might be able to use it in the update. If you decide to create a business card, you're logo will be on your hard drive and ready to use. If you put a date on your downloadable form, when the new year roles around, you can edit the original document, save it as a PDF and load it to your website easily because you have your username and password and your have the original document. You've saved yourself a lot of money and a lot of time!

As Bali is slowly becoming one of the most famous tourist destinations be sure to experience all the treasures of it while it is still partially untouched. You will get the chance to meet the pesky yet funny monkeys, enjoy the white sand beaches, traditional shows, and fall in love with beautiful sunsets! Visiting the Indonesian gem will be one of the best decisions you ever made!
Same as the above mentioned Bali but situated in Greece this is an island jewel. You will get to feel like a god as Crete is thought to be the birthplace of many Greek Gods as well as the European civilization. This beautiful island holds a huge historical value while still offering beautiful nature and the Mediterranean sea you will simply enjoy!
If someone has asked me what would be the best city to go and feel the mix of different countries and vibes I would certainly say Marrakech. This beautiful Morrocan city will take a special place in your heart, and you will be able to experience French, Arab and Spanish influence along the way. Beautiful buildings and even better-spiced food will make your stay a day or two longer than you have initially planned!
The island covered with Buddhist temples, beautiful white sand beaches, and water sports options has to be one of the best destinations to spend your vacation days on. Once again the blue lagoons and beautiful sunset that you will be able to experience every day are just a few reasons why you should visit this gemstone. And taking a swim in the Andaman Sea is a must all day long!
Jamaica is so special that whatever place you visit on the island you are sure to go back with beautiful memories feeling like you are born again. The people there are so nice and relaxed you will have no place for stress, and simply lying on the beach will seem like the most beautiful experience ever. Along with that, you have a variety of nice bars and clubs that you can visit and enjoy the positive reggae vibes that Jamaica has to offer. With forests and unique wildlife everywhere around it is excellent if you are a fun of hiking as well!
Last, but certainly not least is the beautiful place of Hurghada situated in the civilization's cradle – Egypt. The turquoise water and beautiful beaches are just what you need when on vacation, and you will be able to scuba dive and enjoy the coral reefs everywhere around. Exploring the old town of El Dahar will be a fun thing to do in a day, and the politeness of Hurghada people is something you will be amazed about!
There are hundreds of beautiful vacation destinations out there, and we only listed a few life-changing ones. It is your choice where and when will you go, but remember to travel and experience life throughout!

Words of the prayer
Mary, our Queen,
Holy Mother of God,
we beg you to hear our prayer.
Make our hearts overflow with Divine grace
and resplendent with heavenly wisdom.
Render them strong with your might
and rich in virtue.
Pour down upon us the gift of mercy
so that we may obtain the pardon of our sins.
Help us to live in such a way
as to merit the glory and bliss of heaven.
May this be granted us by your Son Jesus
Who has exalted you above the angels,

Joan Rivers' Tv Taping Cancelled - Report
By WENN in Movies / TV / Theatre on 02 September 2014
Tv bosses have reportedly axed filming on JOAN RIVERS' Tv show Fashion Police this week (beg01Sep14) as the funnywoman remains in a serious condition in hospital.
The 81-year-old comedienne suffered a cardiac arrest during routine throat surgery on Thursday (28Aug14) and was admitted to Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City where she was placed in a medically-induced coma.
Rivers remains under the care of doctors, who are reportedly working to bring her out of the coma, and executives at the E! Network are now said to have axed a planned shoot for her style-focused Tv show, which was due to take place in the Big Apple to coincide with New York Fashion Week, according to the New York Daily News.
A stand-up gig in New Jersey on Friday (29Aug14) was also called off following Rivers' hospitalisation.

Jordan's 'Flu Game': The myth, the truth and "The Last Dance" revelations
2yBrianna Williams
The truth behind Michael Jordan's infamous NBA Finals 'Flu Game'
SportsCenter Throwback: Jordan's Flu Game (4:08)
On June 11, 1997, Michael Jordan dominated in the NBA Finals while sick. Here's a look at the SportsCenter highlight from that game. (4:08)
If you were to print a book ranking Michael Jordan's career-defining moments, you'd run out of ink by the time you reached his first retirement. Despite that, his iconic performance in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals has to be somewhere near the top of the list.
Jordan dropped 38 points in 44 minutes, including the tie-breaking 3-pointer with 25 seconds left, to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 90-88 victory and 3-2 series lead over the Utah Jazz.

After the game, His Airness opened up about battling an ailment throughout the game.
"I almost played myself into passing out," Jordan said. "I came in and I was almost dehydrated and it was all just to win a basketball game. I couldn't breathe. My energy level was really low. My mouth was really dry. They started giving me Gatorade and I thought about an IV."
The "Flu Game" officially turns 24 years old on Friday, but it was brought back to the spotlight when "The Last Dance," ESPN's 10-part docuseries on the Jordan-led Bulls dynasty, aired last year.
Michael Jordan spit on a pizza!?! - 'The Last Dance' director talks flu game
"The Last Dance" director Jason Hehir says Michael Jordan spat on his pizza out of spite after his teammates ordered dinner without him the night before his infamous "flu game".
After watching the ninth episode, which highlighted that game, former Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns wide receiver Andrew Hawkins shared how he was inspired to "Be Like Mike" and compete through an illness:
- My 2nd year in the league...
- Wildcard playoffs vs the Texans...
- I got sick af...
- 102 Temp...
- Had to switch my rooms so I wouldn't get @ajgreen_18 sick...
- All I was thinking is, I'm going MJ Flu game on em...
I had 2 catches for 15 yards..
& a fumble.
We lost
— Andrew Hawkins (@Hawk) May 18, 2020
During the episode, it was revealed the nickname for the game may need to be adjusted as Jordan identified a Utah delivery pizza as the cause of his sickness.
"So, it really wasn't the flu game," Jordan admitted. "It was food poisoning."
While MJ's performance served as a source of inspiration for Hawkins, there were some varying thoughts about Jordan's diagnosis.
Can we stop with " Flu game MJ "?? It sounds cool but he had food poisoning lol...Rumors say he was hungover👀 https://t.co/x97QUczImT
— Marlon Humphrey (@marlon_humphrey) July 7, 2020
Gonna have to start checking that room service food delivery when we're in Dallas now... 🍕😷 #FluGame #TheLastDance
— Lane Johnson (@LaneJohnson65) May 18, 2020
The cause of Jordan's illness sparked controversy years before "The Last Dance" aired as two interviews cited food poisoning as the likely culprit.
"You know, Ronnie Harper always thought it was a bad food type of thing," Phil Jackson said in a 2012 interview.
In 2013, Tim Grover, MJ's former personal trainer, spilled the beans about what happened that fateful night in Utah.
"So we order a pizza, they come to deliver it, five guys come to deliver this pizza. And I'm just ... I take the pizza, and I tell them, I said, 'I got a bad feeling about this.' I said, 'I just got a bad feeling about this.'
"Out of everybody in the room, he was the only one that ate. Nobody else ... then 2 o'clock in the morning, I get a call to my room. I come to the room, he's curled up, he's curled up in the fetal position. We're looking at him. We're finding the team physician at that time. And immediately I said, 'It's food poisoning.' Guaranteed. Not the flu."
The retelling of the story during last year's documentary shined new light on the episode.
soooo the "flu" game was actually the "food" game?!?
— Chiney Ogwumike (@chiney) May 18, 2020
Although we now know the true story, the "Food Game" just doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

Red Hook Nov. 30, 2012
This Is Red Hook, One Month After Sandy
Some scaffolding going up, but still a lot of heart in South Brooklyn. Photo: Hugh Merwin
The emergency management trailers are still parked in Coffey Park near the basketball court, and tall, cranelike spotlights are still stationed on corners throughout the neighborhood, but the police officers no longer stop by to turn them on every night. The gutters are streaked with oil and dirt around Richards and Verona, just outside Visitation Church, where a line still forms each weekend when volunteers hand out diapers and garbage bags. And as rebuilding begins in earnest, the neighborhood's identity — only really coming into focus when the storm hit 31 days ago — is evolving yet again.
The restaurants are open, or are reopening. Hope and Anchor has been serving burgers and grilled cheese almost continuously, and the pulled-pork sandwiches with B&G; pickles are back at Brooklyn Icehouse. Meanwhile, Brooklyn Crab, the three-level Reed Street restaurant, still scoops up diners in a gas-guzzling van outside the Carroll Street station and has even introduced brunch.
St. John Frizell, the cocktail man and affable owner of Fort Defiance, the bar and café at the center of Red Hook's food scene, has slept very little this month. He knows that maybe twenty of his best customers have left their damaged homes in the neighborhood, which is barely accessible by subway and really only threaded to the rest of the city's public transportation system by the B61 bus line. When Frizell sees his regulars now, it's when he passes them on Pioneer Street, where they stand on the sidewalk outside their homes in the mornings and get the latest reports from contractors.
The piles of wet sheetrock are still being removed from the basements of row houses, but Fort Defiance is open. The restaurant has a new kitchen and is keeping regular hours. Frizell was able to bring his chef Steve Linares back on payroll a few weeks ago, even though the refrigerators had been stripped of their compressors, and the restaurant was still cleaning up old, spoiled food. Frizell is most worried that people will associate Red Hook with rubber boots and petroleum instead of highballs and lobster rolls.
Matt Lewis, the co-owner of Baked, agrees. "We don't want people to think, Oh, I don't want to go to Red Hook because of the storm and the damage." The bakery became the de facto hot chocolate and coffee outpost for hundreds of volunteers that descended upon the neighborhood to help clean up after the storm.
"Our needs have changed," says Lewis. "People stop and ask, 'Can we bring you blankets?' We tell them who's accepting donations, but what I really want to say is, 'Oh, please buy a cake.'"
A few weeks ago, Lewis joined Frizell and Home/Made owner Monica Byrne in forming Restore Red Hook, which raises money directly for the community's small business owners, allowing them to bypass the interest rates attached to SBA loans. Lewis hopes the organization will move past the inclement weather in the future on to improving the strength of the community's business district. The group is now planning a winter festival that Lewis describes as a cross between the Mermaid Day parade and the Atlantic Antic. Hopefully other restaurants in the neighborhood, like the Good Fork, will have reopened for business by then. "One of the best parts about this," says Lewis, "is we all know each other really well now."
"Not that you'd ever wish for it to happen this way, but we became part of the community," says Christopher Miller. "There's no question this is the right place for us." Miller and his business partner, Billy Durney, didn't plan to even start building out their forthcoming restaurant at 454 Van Brunt Street, the converted garage where they still plan to debut Hometown Barbecue next spring, on the corner of Reed Street, one block from the water. But they were compelled to help. Durney slow-cooked 1,000 pounds of meat the day after the storm in his portable, seven-foot-long Lang trailer-smoker and gave it all away. "We'd make deliveries to Calvary Church, and after the first day, the people knew us," says Miller. "'Hey,' they'd say, 'the rib guys are here.'" They've been smoking meat every weekend, and even lent the rig to Fort Defiance for its annual Evacuation Day pig roast. "We want to help everyone we can," says Miller. "These are the people who would help us."
After the storm, Durney, who lives in Brooklyn, got to the restaurant first. A half-ton six-burner stove had been picked up by the surge and smashed onto the opposite wall inside the under-construction restaurant. "Whatever we put in," says Miller, "we lost." The restaurant is still planning on opening in the spring on the corner of Van Brunt and Reed, but Miller says he and Durney now plan to build the bar on a foundation of cinder blocks.
At the Pier 41 building, home to Mile End's production kitchen and Steve's Key Lime Pies, and the Liberty Warehouse, a large catering and events space, everyone wants to get back to business. The Red Hook Winery has been sanitized, and its tasting room is being demolished. They will rebuild.
"I'm told the building is the highest point in Red Hook," says Darren Palace, the winery's general manager. "The building never took on water in the past, I'm told, not even in the eighties."
The storm surge breached the pier a month ago though, destroying the winery, much of its inventory, and several fermentations in process. At least one barrel full of wine was swept out to sea.
"We have a better sense of what we lost," says Palace, "but in the beginning, we weren't sure exactly how much wine was gone." In preparation for the storm, the winery unplugged the computer running its inventory software onto a high shelf. It wasn't high enough.
"After the storm, we had sommeliers in here, wine buyers." All people Palace knows, but in a completely different context. "The first few days, they were literally shoveling shit. I didn't understand it." Palace says the experience has changed him.
The electricity was back on last Thursday. It turns out that Robert Walsh, the commissioner of the New York City Department of Small Business Services, is a supporter of the winery. "He said, 'I'm bringing the mayor down,'" says Palace. "Then Bloomberg was on the pier. He said, 'Let me make a phone call,' and it was done."
It's time to get back to work. After the storm hit, Palace lost access to his pumps and his ability to control the wine's temperature, so there are three vintages he says he doesn't know about. Early next year, the winery will test samples drawn from every one of its 60-gallon barrels before any talk of bottling can begin.
Regardless, Palace says "we are planning on staying," adding that the winery's owner Mark Snyder chose its location for a reason. "We're committed to wine produced from Long Island grapes."
Yesterday, Fairway announced it will reopen in six to twelve weeks. That's a lot sooner than expected, but an estimated 2,000 to 3,000 shoppers do not make the trip to Red Hook each day while it remains closed. The neighborhood remains a collection of contradictions: As public-housing residents continue to protest NYCHA's rent demands after being left without heat, hot water, and electricity for weeks, a building a block away from the water has sold for $11.8 million, and Russell Crowe has been seen skulking around town in character for a new movie filming on Conover.
Meanwhile, St. John Frizell's is serving the neighborhood a full menu of hot drinks for cold nights, including toddies and Irish coffee. When the restaurant opened in 2009, its stock of rye and gin was laid out across finished wood, a decision Frizell regretted because it's never been easy to clean. So after the basement was pumped and hundreds of pounds of steel and broken bottles had been cleared from the restaurant, Frizell seized the opportunity to tile Fort Defiance's back bar. "That's the thing," he says. "When something like this happens, you don't put things back the way they were. You put them back the way you wanted them to be."

New AFROTC Commander's Meteorology and Aviation Experience Aids Cadets at Embry-Riddle
U.S. Air Force Col. Jason Patla, new commander for the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) Detachment 157 on Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Daytona Beach Campus, shows students a gift he received from the "Wolf Pack" fighter wing at Kunsan Air Base in South Korea where he was Deputy Mission Support Group Commander. (Embry-Riddle/Daryl Labello)

Sep 07, 2018, 9:35 AM
From Bosnia to Korea and assignments to the South Pole and Joint Typhoon Warning Centers in Guam and Hawaii, U.S. Air Force Col. Jason Patla has been all over the world providing weather intelligence to the U.S. Army and Air Force.
With a specialty in tropical cyclones and climatology, the aviation and space forecasts from his squadrons aided four-star generals and admirals in their decision-making processes whether dealing with air strikes or other ground and air operations.
With 24 years in the Air Force, Col. Patla, who is also a private pilot, has a host of experience to share with cadets as the new commander for the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) Detachment 157 on Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Daytona Beach Campus. He replaces Col. Kimberley Ramos, who retired from the Air Force after 30 years.
One of the largest AFROTC programs nationally and one of the top pilot-producing detachments for the Air Force, the program includes cadets from Embry–Riddle, Bethune-Cookman University, Daytona State College, the University of Central Florida-Daytona Beach Campus and Stetson University, which joined the detachment this semester.
Patla knows firsthand the importance of a university ROTC program. He entered the Air Force in 1994 through the ROTC at Purdue University, where he received a bachelor's in Atmospheric Science, after previously serving in the Army Junior ROTC in high school.
"I feel this is paying back to the service and organization that helped me get to where I am," Patla said. "I have a lot of respect for what the cadre (instructors) do and I have a lot of empathy for the cadets going through academic rigors coupled with the physical rigors."
With about 380 in the overall program, Patla, who also teaches a national security and commissioning preparation class, is focused on instilling in the cadets what he learned from his service – responsibility, accountability, professionalism and leadership.
"I'm absolutely humbled to have been accepted into this position," said Patla, who is passionate about aviation and STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). "Given the staff I have here as part of this amazing program, my goal is to continue moving it forward and developing premier second lieutenants to lead our Air Force in the upcoming decades."
Prior to coming to Embry-Riddle, Patla led more than 550 active duty, civil service and contract personnel from six squadrons based on three continents as commander of the 2nd Weather Group, 557th Weather Wing, at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska. The group operates and sustains the Air Force's $322 million strategic weather enterprise, delivering decision-quality, authoritative space and terrestrial environmental intelligence in support of national security objectives.
With a Ph.D. in Climatology and two master's degrees in Tropical Meteorology and Strategic Studies, Patla served in numerous roles as commander and chief of weather squadrons and weather groups, including chief of Pacific Air Forces Weather Operations Branch establishing weather policy and ensuring the readiness of weather units and personnel to support the U.S. Pacific Command combatant commander.
"He is a fantastic mentor and an excellent role model with a Ph.D., showing our students the breadth and opportunities the military has to offer for those who wish to serve," said Karen Gaines, Ph.D., professor and Dean of Embry-Riddle's College of Arts and Sciences.
Through his experiences providing aviation forecasts and forecasts pertaining to solar storms or possible cyberattacks to satellite systems, he hopes students see how the science of meteorology works together with Air Force operations as part of every planning process.
"I want to send our graduates into the world with an appreciation of the natural environment and how it applies to what they will be doing on active duty, no matter if they are going to be a pilot, navigator, engineer, or any specialty in the Air Force," Patla said.


Intel and Nokia have been strategic partners for many years. It has been a very fruitful long-term relationship and now the two companies are working together to help Communications Services Providers to evolve into Digital Services Providers.
It is an enormous and fundamental evolution and 5G is at the centre of it. This is because 5G will be so much more than just a technology on and in a device (although that is how the vast majority of the world's consumers will see and use it) 5G requires a transformed and cloudified network if it is to achieve its potential and reach deep into vertical industries such and across core networks, the cloud and the RAN.

Dr. Kingsley Nyarko's Hard work Will Yield Historic Results in Kwadaso ~ Hon. Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto
Honourable Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, the revered Cabinet Minister, and Minister of Food and Agriculture under the Government of His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, President of Ghana, has lauded Dr. Kingsley Nyarko, New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate for Kwadaso Constituency for the ingenious, innovative, thoughtful and strenuous campaign strategy employed. He continued that, the enormity of the Health Walk, and its unifying ambience occasioned, is a first of its kind in the constituency and Ghana, and so, constituents should be wary to rally around Dr. Kingsley Nyarko, give him all the needed support, and harness the full potentials of his exceptional qualities.
Kwadaso Constituency, on Saturday 24th October, 2020, had its entire environs and streets decorated with NPP colors and individuals in ecstatic mood, when Dr. Kingsley Nyarko together with the Constituency's NPP Executives and campaign team members organized a health walk and medical screening in the Constituency.
The "Thank You Nana Akufo-Addo" Health Walk and Medical Screening dubbed "Ghana Walks With Kingsley", which attracted over ten thousand (10,000) participants, commenced from Agric-Nzima Roman at 5:00am, went through Sofoline and finally came to an end at the University of Education, Winneba – Kumasi campus (UEW-K), where a mini rally was held.
Hon. Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto was a Member of Parliament (MP) of Kwadaso between January 2009 and January 2017. He is the only MP of the Constituency who has served for two (2) terms after the Constituency was curved out of the Bantama Constituency in 2004.
Addressing the gathering, Hon. Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto christened "The Legend" remarked that, the enthusiasm and zeal put into the organization of the Health Walk and the entire campaign is both historic and a novelty which should be religiously guarded and sustained by the Constituency. He added that, Dr. Kingsley Nyarko is a humble, affable and respectful individual; traits going to transcend his political growth and development. He further admonished the gathering to work hard to aid the victory of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo because a maintenance of the President for another four (4) more years would mean another four more years of continuous infrastructural, economical, health, financial, educational, industrial, agricultural, digital, democratic, centralized and decentralized governance, and other forms of developments for Ghanaians.
The Minister of Food and Agriculture in furtherance postulated that, the NPP deserved a resounding victory of more than 95%, so, it is incumbent on party members to continue to actively work hard to ensure a total victory in the upcoming General Elections slated for Monday 7th December, 2020 by voting the Number One (1) for both President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Dr. Kingsley Nyarko.
Notable achievements of Hon. Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto as the substantive Minister of Food and Agriculture include Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ), Planting for Exports and Rural Development (PERD), Agricultural Mechanization, Increase in the Number of Extension Officers Per Community, Equipment of Extension Officers with the Necessary Logistics such as Motorbikes, Wellington boots and others, Rearing for Food and Jobs (RFJ), Greenhouse Farming Technology, among others. These achievements in furtherance have aided in the promotion of food security and sufficiency, formal and informal employment, resources for the local industries, economic growth, reduction in agricultural food imports but increase in exports, poverty alleviation, rural development and others.
