Take two: Miley back to NLCS hill, Brews try to deny Dodgers
by Juana Turner
— Окт 20, 2018
The Brewers will need to win twice to advance after dropping two in a row in Los Angeles. Austin Barnes started the last two games for the Dodgers, replacing Yasmani Grandal as the backstop for Los Angeles.
"I don't really think about the one before". Brandon Woodruff took over, and worked into the sixth inning.
Rookie right-hander Corbin Burnes orchestrated another flawless 1-2-3 inning in the ninth, retiring Pederson and Puig with consecutive strikeouts and inducing a game-inning, series-extending pop-up from Matt Kemp to wrap the win.
"I started the end of an All-Star break and the other side of it", Miley said. Miley got the last start against the Dodgers, and was pulled after a five-pitch walk.
With the Dodgers up in the series, if the Brewers lose on Friday, they're done.
Counsell explained that the unconventional move was an effort to get the best matchups.
But in the sixth, Woodruff allowed Justin Turner's leadoff single and hit Manny Machado.

So if there are teams that would make knee-jerk changes ahead of a do-or-die game - that would turn their lineup over, or ride their best arm until it fell limp - the Brewers are likely not one of them.
Friday night's Game 6 of the National League Championship Series will see a repeat of the Game 2 matchup, ultimately won by the Dodgers, as L.A.'s Hyun-Jin Ryu takes the mound in Milwaukee against the Brewers' Wade Miley. That earned free burgers for all of Wisconsin - from 2 to 6 p.m.at George Webb on Thursday - and made it look like they were built to best the Dodgers, with their fire-throwing bullpen, deep lineup and just enough starting pitching to get by.
Counsell already was at the vanguard of the recent wave of managers figuring out new ways to use their bullpens, along with Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash.
When asked, Counsell said that he didn't think that lifting Miley after one batter broke down baseball norms or trust between opposing manager.
The Brewers' manager, Craig Counsell, nearly certainly did it so Los Angeles' manager, Dave Roberts, would load his starting lineup with his right-handed batters, assuming they would be facing a left-handed starting pitcher. They were beaten by Houston in Game 7 a year ago. Muncy chased him with a single that rocked a Chavez Ravine crowd eager to see the World Series again next week.
"Craig has been doing it since September 1".
One more Dodgers victory would set up a World Series showdown with the Boston Red Sox. For the first time since late April, the Brewers have finished back-to-back games with fewer than two runs.

Giants renewing focus on international market
Zaidi: 'It's got to be a huge part of what we do over the next few years'
By Maria Guardado @mi_guardado
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- In 2010, the Giants signed Reyes Moronta as an international free agent out of the Dominican Republic for $15,000. It was a modest investment in a teenage pitcher that has already paid off in a big way for the Giants. Moronta debuted with the Giants in 2017
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- In 2010, the Giants signed Reyes Moronta as an international free agent out of the Dominican Republic for $15,000. It was a modest investment in a teenage pitcher that has already paid off in a big way for the Giants.
Moronta debuted with the Giants in 2017 and became a key cog in the bullpen last year, posting a 2.49 ERA over 69 appearances. With an upper-90s fastball, sweeping slider and improving changeup, he has the potential to become the club's closer of the future.
"I had been talking to other teams like Kansas City and the Chicago Cubs, but the Giants had never seen me," Moronta said in Spanish. "Once they saw me, they signed me that same day. I never felt bad about the bonus they gave me. I felt grateful because it was an opportunity, and thank God, I'm here now."
But Moronta has been one of the Giants' rare success stories on the international market in recent years. According to research from Grant Brisbee of The Athletic, Moronta is one of only four homegrown international pitchers to appear for the Giants since 2000. The others? Right-handers Osiris Matos and Waldis Joaquin and third baseman Pablo Sandoval, who pitched one inning of relief in a blowout loss against the Dodgers last April.
Sandoval, who signed with the Giants out of Venezuela in 2003, also has the distinction of being the club's last homegrown international All-Star.
The Giants' recent struggles to mine the international market for impact talent is especially surprising given their rich history of developing Latin American icons like Juan Marichal, Ozzie Virgil and the Alou brothers -- Felipe, Matty and Jesus.
"I was surprised by it," president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi said. "It's interesting because it wouldn't match your perception. It feels like there's always a Moronta or someone like a Moronta in the 'pen. I guess you don't always think about whether that was a homegrown player or not. But it's certainly an area we'd like to be better in."
Scouting international teenagers has always been an exercise fraught with risk, but the Giants' recent track record with their high-profile international investments has been particularly checkered.
Angel Villalona, who signed for a then-franchise record $2.1 million in 2006, was arrested on a murder charge in the Dominican Republic in 2009 and spent nearly a year in jail and under house arrest before being acquitted after reportedly paying the victim's family $139,000. Visa issues kept him out of baseball for another year, and when he finally returned to the Giants' organization, he did not advance past Double-A Richmond.
In 2008, the Giants gave $2.55 million to Dominican outfielder Rafael Rodriguez, whose career stalled at Class A Advanced San Jose, leading to his retirement in 2015. They had high hopes for outfielder Gustavo Cabrera, who received a $1.6 million bonus in 2012, but he nearly severed his right hand in a freak accident at his Dominican Republic home and was never the same. He retired last year.
The Giants also shelled out $6 million to land Bahamian shortstop Lucius Fox in 2015, a signing that sent them into the penalty for exceeding their international bonus pool. Not only were the Giants subject to a 100 percent tax on the pool overage, but they were also prohibited from spending more than $300,000 on international amateurs for the next two years, making them long shots for blue-chip prospects in search of million-dollar bonuses.
Despite the high cost of the signing, the Giants later traded Fox and third baseman Matt Duffy to the the Rays in exchange for left-hander Matt Moore at the 2016 non-waiver Trade Deadline. Fox, 21, is now ranked the Rays' No. 9 prospect and could be in the Majors by next year. Moore logged a 5.52 ERA for the Giants in 2017 and was promptly shipped to the Rangers that December.
Though none of those investments have panned out, the Giants expect to be better moving forward. San Francisco is working to re-establish that pipeline of international talent, and it will be a point of emphasis for Zaidi, who was instrumental in the A's signing of Cuban star Yoenis Cespedes in 2012.
"It's got to be a huge part of what we do over the next few years," Zaidi said.
Zaidi revamped the Giants' scouting departments by bringing in Zack Minasian and Michael Holmes as the new directors of pro and amateur scouting, respectively, and he said he expects both to assist international scouting director Joe Salermo in evaluating prospects from abroad. J.P. Ricciardi and Craig Weissmann, both of whom have extensive scouting backgrounds, also joined the Giants' front office over the offseason.
"I always think it's the most mind-blowing task in baseball to go scout and evaluate 16-year-olds," Zaidi said. "I do think we're going to use technology more like a lot of organizations are in evaluating players down there. But having experienced sets of eyes is probably the single most important thing from an international scouting standpoint."
As MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez wrote last September, an increasing number of teams are outfitting their international scouting departments with tools like Trackman, which measures metrics such as velocity, spin rates and exit speeds, swing analysis devices and force plates, which track force production and weight distribution. Advanced camera or radar technology from companies like Edgertronic and Rapsodo -- which the Giants have been using this spring -- are also becoming more widespread among the international scouting community.
"I think gathering as many measurables as you can in such an uncertain evaluation environment is critical," Zaidi said. "We're definitely going to invest money in that and make sure that's kind of part of our scouting protocols down there."
The hope is that by blending newer technologies and traditional scouting, the Giants will be able to unearth a steady stream of Reyes Morontas and Pablo Sandovals in the future. There's already reason for optimism. The Giants' $300,000 spending restriction on the international market ended last year, and they received high marks for their 2018 international class of amateurs, which was headlined by shortstop Marco Luciano and outfielders Jairo Pomares and Luis Matos.
"I've had a chance to see a lot of the kids from the last couple of classes in January at instructs, and I think they brought in some really good talent," Zaidi said. "On the international side in particular is probably where it's the closest balance of scouting and player development, because I think you're getting players who are more tools than developed when they're coming in at 16. So whether it's position players or pitchers, I think it's as much of the responsibility of the player development as it is for the scouting department to bring in the talent."

Covid 19: clinical decision-making in conditions of resource shortage and the "pandemic emergency triage" criterion
In the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, the healthcare system has been subjected to enormous pressure. In this opinion, the Committee examines the problem of patient access to treatment in conditions of limited health resources.
In accordance with the fundamental principles of the Constitution (the right to health protection, the principle of equality, the duty of solidarity) and the universalistic and egalitarian criterion on which the National Health Service is based, the Committee believes that there must be respect for the principles of justice, fairness and solidarity, in the allocation of resources. In this context, the ICB recognises the clinical criterion as the most appropriate point of reference, deeming any other selection criterion, such as age, sex, condition and social role, ethnicity, disability, responsibility for behaviours contributing to the onset of the pathology, costs, to be ethically unacceptable.
The Committee believes that pandemic emergency triage should be based on a premise, preparedness (preparation of action plans in the field of public health care, in view of exceptional conditions, with a transparent chain of responsibilities), clinical appropriateness (medical evaluation of the efficacy of the treatment in relation to the clinical need of each individual patient, with reference to the urgency and seriousness at the onset of the pathology and to the prognostic possibility of recovery, considering the proportionality of the treatment), actuality that places the individual evaluation of the patient physically present in the emergency department into the broader perspective of the "patient community", with a periodic review of waiting lists.
The Committee also points out that the allocation of health resources in conditions of their scarcity requires maximum transparency towards the public, in order to render everyone's choices truly free and informed. The ICB notes with concern the proliferation of legal disputes against health professionals in the context of the current pandemic emergency and believes that there should be consideration of the idea of limiting possible profiles of professional liability of healthcare workers in relation to the activities carried out to deal with the Covid-19 emergency.
Specific attention is dedicated to those most vulnerable, who may feel at risk of abandonment, in particular the elderly, in residential care facilities, for whom the Committee recommends that appropriate care, protection and attention should be ensured in order to prevent Sars-CoV-2 virus infection.

To say blogging has been a struggle lately would be a gross understatement. It's not that there hasn't been anything to blog about, because there certainly is- it's that life is happening so quickly, and time seems to be slipping away.
Let's do a quick recap of the last 8 months….
1. We found a house for the facility! It's a darling 4 bedroom house in the heart of Walnut. Nestled in a golf course community, this house is perfect for a treatment center. We have two cribs set up in each room and it is the perfect space for babies.
2. Our House Mom/Facility Manager moved in! She truly is the perfect person to run this facility. Not only is she amazing with children, she has such a leader's heart. She is training and running our staff with ease and has so many wonderful ideas.
3. We hired our caregiving staff! These 12 are truly the cream of the crop! Not only are they educated and intelligent, they have a heart and passion to help others. Watching them interact and share their stories is so incredible to see.
4. We have submitted everything to the state and county! It truly is just a waiting game until we open. Unfortunately, we can only move as fast as our Licensing Analyst moves. While we wait, we are finishing up training our staff and prepping and organizing the house for the final walk through.
We are so thankful to everyone who has come alongside of us on this journey. There have been so many who have come to the house to help at workdays, bought us items for the babies, given financially, and supported us through prayer. We feel overwhelmed and blessed by everyone's outpouring of love. People truly have been the hands and feet of Jesus.
So as we (not so) patiently wait to open, we pray for the babies. We pray for their little hearts and bodies. We pray that we would be well equipped to help heal and care for these precious ones. We pray that though their time at Bithiah's will be short, we would be able to have a lasting impact on their lives. Our love for them already runs so deep and we cannot wait to hold them and love on them.


The closest New York State airports serving Dutchess County are Stewart International Airfield in Newburgh (about an hour away to the southwest), Albany's airport (1.5 hours' distance northward), and New York's LaGuardia and Kennedy airports (about 2 hours, in normal traffic, to the south).
Two Metro-North railway lines serve the Millbrook area (Poughkeepsie station) out of New York's Grand Central Station. If you take the Hudson Line, offering views of the river most of the journey up, you will get off at Poughkeepsie, 15 miles to Millbrook's west. Reasonable rental cars are available at Rent-a-Wreck, which will do its best to meet your train if requested in advance. The Harlem Line, which skirts along the CT border, will bring you to either Dover Plains or Wassaic (the last stop on this line). Dover Plains is 8 miles from Millbrook; Wassaic is closer to 10. Round-trip tickets on either line are $20 - $25, depending on time of day and age of traveler. Metro-North tickets may be used for both the Hudson and Harlem Lines.
Take the Taconic State Parkway south to the Poughkeepsie-Millbrook exit. Bear left at the fork in the ramp and merge onto US-44. Continue on Route 44, turning left, until you see a high wooden fence on your right and a sign for Millbrook Winery. This is our verge, and farther along on the right are our sign and entrance, at #3244. Across from our driveway entrance Valley Farm Rd. comes into US-44, so if you pass this road sign you were looking the wrong way and have gone past us!
Take the Taconic State Parkway north to the Poughkeepsie-Millbrook exit. Bear right at the fork in the ramp and merge onto US-44. Continue about 4 miles, including a sharp left, until you pass Orvis-Sandanona and eventually, on your right, see a high wooden fence and a sign for Millbrook Winery. This is our verge, and farther along on the right are our sign and entrance, at #3244. Across from our driveway entrance Valley Farm Rd. comes into US-44, so if you pass this road sign you were looking the wrong way and have gone past us!
From Sharon, which is 15 miles northeast of Millbrook, take US-343 to Amenia; the continuation of this road is US-44. Follow this all the way to MCH (do not turn into the village proper at the stone gatehouse, but just continue to #3244, on your left. We're the colonial house behind a high wooden fence, and our driveway entry is almost directly across from where Valley Farm Rd. abuts US-44.
Take US-44 going east, passing through Pleasant Valley, continuing under the Taconic overpass, and eventually turning a sharp left, still on US-44. After passing Orvis-Sandanona, go another mile or so and you'll see our high wooden fence, our oval sign, and our entrance at #3244.


A larger stator high Kv edition of the Returner R3 line sent over by Brother Hobby for testing.
The BrotherHobby Returner line is a long standing motor line with a deep history in the hobby. This motor is a variation on the R3 theme, revising the design with an open bottom and upgraded materials to 7075 aluminum, but with other aspects being the same as other R3 series motors. The 3mm internal shaft, bell integrated prop adapter, c-clip shaft retainer, magnets, 3x8x4 bearings, and tolerances are all identical to the earlier motors in the series. This design keeps the weight low for a 2207, falling just short of 31g.
This test is quite interesting becuase this motor is essentially identical to an earlier motor, the Multicopter Builders MB2207 2500kv, except for the open bottom design and 7075 upgrades. The prop list has changed a bit since then, but the comparison is interesting to see. The open bottom design seems to allow for better cooling of the stators, and there is a noticable reduction in heat losses during the sustained segments of the test. That is probably quite emphasized by static load testing, but is a positive sign. As a result the numbers are slightly higher on the sustained thrust tests for the new R3. Other than some small differences, due to the heat disipation, the results are extremely consistent, which is a good indicator of the consistency of the test equipment even with a fairly decent time difference between tests. Solid results here, even on the heaviest props it barely tapped 40A, staying in the upper 30s and well over 1500g on the heavier 5" props, and around 1450g in the mid 30A range for the mid weight props. Even late in production as the R3 line is at this point, this motor is still a very good balance of power and current consumption, especially when taking the low weight into account.

Privacy is an essentially contested concept: a multi-dimensional analytic for mapping privacy
Deirdre K. Mulligan, Colin Koopman, Nick Doty. "Privacy is an essentially contested concept: a multi-dimensional analytic for mapping privacy." Phil. Trans. R. Soc. A. 374:20160118. (2016)
The meaning of privacy has been much disputed throughout its history in response to wave after wave of new technological capabilities and social configurations. The current round of disputes over privacy fuelled by data science has been a cause of despair for many commentators and a death knell for privacy itself for others. We argue that privacy's disputes are neither an accidental feature of the concept nor a lamentable condition of its applicability. Privacy is essentially contested. Because it is, privacy is transformable according to changing technological and social conditions. To make productive use of privacy's essential contestability, we argue for a new approach to privacy research and practical design, focused on the development of conceptual analytics that facilitate dissecting privacy's multiple uses across multiple contexts.
This article is part of the themed issue 'The ethical impact of data science'.

Gilman's retirement mourned
By	Sharon Samber	 July 3, 2002 9:00 am
Rep. Benjamin Gilman (R-N.Y.). ()
WASHINGTON, July 3 (JTA) — In the fall of 1997, a pro-Israel U.S. congressman heard about the threat Israel faced from Iran, which was close to refining a missile capable of hitting the Jewish state. He introduced legislation that would sanction countries and companies that provide Iran with the technology to build up its missile program.	That legislation became the basis for a presidential executive order, which eventually led to a U.S. law that punishes entries that aid Iran in its quest for weapons of mass destruction. That legislator was Rep. Benjamin Gilman (R-N.Y.), who announced his retirement this week.	It's no small wonder, say Jewish observers, that Jews will miss that voice in the U.S. House of Representatives. For more than 30 years, Gilman was known for his strong understanding of foreign policy and tireless advocacy for Israel. The 79-year-old lawmaker announced Tuesday night that he would not seek re-election in November, saying he was leaving his seat "with great remorse."	Gilman is leaving Congress as a result of the state's redistricting plan, which eliminates two seats from New York's congressional delegation.	Gilman, who has represented a district just north of New York City since 1972, would lose part of that area, prompting speculation that he would not win in his new district.	He reportedly flirted with becoming a Democrat, but instead decided to resign.	Often the lone Republican Jewish member in the House, he was a leader on foreign policy issues, especially given his powerful role as from 1995 to 2001 as chairman of the House of Representatives' International Relations Committee.	He currently serves as chairman of the subcommittee on the Middle East and South Asia. His strongly pro-Israel positions earned him the praise of a number of Jewish groups. "Throughout his 30 years in Congress, Ben Gilman has been a leader on virtually every issue important to the pro-Israel community," said Howard Kohr, executive director of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the pro-Israel lobby.	"He brought passion to the issues, integrity to Congress, a spirit of bipartisanship to all his work, and he will be sorely missed." Gilman voted to increase aid to Israel over the years. He also worked on behalf of Israeli MIAs, in support of Jerusalem, or as many put it, "on every area of Jewish interest." Gilman has always had a hard-line approach toward the Palestinians, sometimes putting him at odds with advocates of the Oslo peace process, including the Clinton administration.	He has been a vocal critic of Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat and he spearheaded legislation in 2000 that would have cut off aid to the Palestinian Authority if it unilaterally declared a Palestinian state. It is unclear who might be the next chairman of the Middle East subcommittee, but many Jewish activists say it's hard to imagine any successor who will have close to the breadth of knowledge and understanding of the situation in one of the most volatile areas of the world. "He has more experience than anyone," a congressional staffer said. "He also brought personal caring to the issues." Gilman also was at the forefront of the Soviet Jewry movement in the 1970s. He worked on behalf of refuseniks, met with Soviet officials, participated in vigils and heard individual cases and helped out whenever he could. "He was one of the giants," said Mark Levin, executive director of NCSJ: Advocates on Behalf of Jews in Russia, Ukraine, the Baltic States and Eurasia. "If we need something, he's one of the first members we call." When Soviet officials censored mail to refuseniks and activists in the mid-1980s, Gilman took the lead and got the mail delivered, Levin said. He continues his close bond with the Russian Jewish communities and that bond applies to his local constituency as well.	Gilman would set aside Fridays to meet with Orthodox and Russian constituents in Monsey, N.Y., to hear their concerns.	"He would hold court," said Joseph Halfon, a longtime supporter and friend of Gilman's from Rockland County, which is part of Gilman's district. "He was an icon in the community."

La Brouwerij Van Honsebrouck ou Brasserie Van Honsebrouck est une brasserie située à Ingelmunster en Belgique. On y brasse principalement les marques de bières : Kasteel, St-Louis, Brigand et Bacchus.

Histoire
La famille Van Honsebrouck brasse depuis le  siècle. Amandus Van Honsebrouck fonde sa brasserie à Werken. Ensuite son fils Émile lui succède et fonde en 1900 la brasserie Sint-Jozef à Ingelmunster. Paul et Ernest, leurs fils, poursuivent l'activité familiale. C'est en 1986 que le château de la dite commune est acheté par la famille du brasseur. La bière Kasteel (en néerlandais : château) est créée à cette occasion.
En 2001 un incendie ravagea le musée-brasserie. La famille en profite pour rénover son infrastructure et moderniser son brassage.
On peut aujourd'hui visiter le château et la brasserie qui se trouve à proximité du château dans la rue Oostrozebekestraat. Depuis 2009, la brasserie est dirigée par Xavier Van Honsebrouck qui est le septième brasseur de la famille et le quatrième à la diriger. Il décide de brasser la Cuvée du Château, une Kasteel brune de 10 ans d'âge.

La brasserie a fait partie de l'association brassicole Belgian Family Brewers jusqu'en 2016.

Rosyln Rise- A Deep Dive into the Proposed Redevelopment in Wilde Lake
Roslyn Rise, the dated 1970s-era affordable housing community on Twin River Road in Wilde Lake is slated to be replaced with a modern mixed-income amenity-rich complex that would provide significantly improved housing for our neighbors who reside in this community. Yet, the Howard County Council failed to approve this redevelopment at their October 4 legislative session, instead voting to table consideration until a future legislative session.
This article is a detailed examination of the proposed redevelopment and issues surrounding it.
PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT DETAILS
Roslyn Rise is an existing 58-unit aging, inefficient, inaccessible, and functionally obsolete 100% affordable townhome community built in the 1970s that has served-low-income residents in Wilde Lake for more than 50 years. It's ideally located within walking distance to Howard Community College, Howard County General Hospital, Downtown Columbia, and is adjacent to schools at all grade levels (Bryant Woods Elementary, Wilde Lake Middle, and Wilde Lake High).
In 2019, Enterprise Community partners, the nonprofit started by James and Patty Rouse, purchased Roslyn Rise along with four similar nearby housing complexes, with an intention to renovate them. Under the plan, Roslyn Rise would be the first to be transformed into new, modern, efficient, higher-density, fully accessible and ADA compliant, mixed-income community. It would be comprised of 153 units located in two new four-story elevator apartment buildings. The project would add 95 new units, 52 of which will be market-rated, and the majority of which will be one-and-two bedroom units. While the community currently lacks amenities, the new development will be amenity-rich; it would include a large after-school tutoring space, a fitness center, community room, dog walk, and a large outdoor patio adjacent to the Columbia Association trail that connects to the existing pedestrian tunnel under Twin Rivers Road leading to Bryant Woods Elementary School.
Existing residents of Roslyn Rise would be offered temporary housing, with moving costs and excess rents paid for, during the estimated 20 month demolition and construction period. Upon completion, residents can move back into a brand new like-kind unit at their existing affordable housing rents.
Here are some of the numbers comparing the units of the existing and proposed redevelopment:

COUNTY COUNCIL APPROVAL
For this project to move forward, the Howard County Council must (1) approval a Payment in Lieu of Taxes Agreement (PILOT), and (2) approve a waiver of the Adequate Public Facilitates Ordinance (APFO) under a special affordable housing opportunities provision of APFO that allows a development like this to proceed despite failing the school capacity test for elementary schools.
At the October 4 legislative session, the Council voted to split the PILOT and APFO waiver and consider them separately. The Council approved the PILOT but tabled the APFO waiver for at least another 4 weeks as additional data and clarification on projected school capacity numbers is sought. The Council can revisit this vote as soon as the November 1 session.
Full-spectrum housing like this is expensive. The redevelopment has already been awarded competitive Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) financing from the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development and has received other public loan commitments. The income generated by adding market-rate units not only helps support the affordable rents, but integrated mixed-income housing helps build economically inclusive and sustainable neighborhoods. To make the project financially feasible and as a condition of the negotiated loans, the development is seeking approval for a Payment in Lieu of Taxes Agreement (PILOT) agreement that stipulates payments ($177,237 in year 1; $926,911 in Year 5; $1,958,932 in Year 10; and $4,472,091 in Year 20) that would made instead of property taxes. These payments would exceed the projected property taxes paid over the next 20 years that would be paid if the existing development remained, but would be less than property tax projections for the redeveloped community according to audited Fiscal Impact Analysis.
APFO
Under the Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance public school test, an area is deemed closed for new residential development if the assigned elementary school for the new development is projected to exceed 105% capacity during the scheduled completion year of the project. Bryant Woods Elementary is projected to have 136.6% capacity in 2024-25 per the adopted June 2021 APFO School Capacity Chart, and as such, the area is closed for new residential development.
However, a special affordable housing opportunities exemption in the APFO regulations permits affordable housing projects like this to proceed provide if the following criteria are met:
(1) At least 40 percent of the units shall be affordable to households earning 60 percent or less of the metropolitan statistical area median income;
(2) The project or phase of a project is led by or in partnership with a local nonprofit or the Housing Commission;
(3) The project or phase of a project is seeking or has received an allocation of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits or other state or federal financial assistance for affordable housing;
(4) The project or phase of a project has obtained a letter of support from the County Executive; and
(5) The County Council and County Executive have approved either a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) agreement for the project or a resolution authorizing the project to proceed.
This project meets the first four conditions on this list, leaving Council approval as the last remaining hurdle. When determining whether to approve affordable housing under this provision, APFO regulations directs the Council to consider the capacity utilization of the impacted school and adjacent schools, estimated student generation from the project, any potential for the Board of Education to add capacity through redistricting, facility expansion, or other programs, and the need for affordable housing in the County.
SCHOOL CAPACITY CONSIDERATIONS
Roslyn Rise is directly accessible to its assigned elementary school, Bryant Woods Elementary, via a Columbia Association path that goes through a pedestrian tunnel under Twin River Road.
Bryant Woods Elementary is an excellent school. it is beloved by parents, has an outstanding administration, and has an energetic teaching staff that boosts amongst the highest teacher job satisfaction ratings in the county. It's the very first elementary school in Columbia, and also the smallest, with a capacity of just 361 seats. Yet, the schools assignment boundary includes large neighborhoods in and around Downtown Columbia. Certainly, assigning the area of the county with the most most ambitious growth plans to the smallest school in the county is not a sustainable solution.
The adopted APFO chart estimates that Bryant Woods Elementary will be at 136.6% capacity in 2024-25. This estimate is based on the HCPSS 2020 Feasibility Study. As I noted in a blog post when the 2021 Feasibility Study was released in June, this year's updated study projects significantly reduced enrollment growth in Downtown Columbia area schools, as shown in the table below. The 2021 study projects a 2024-25 enrollment of 119.9% at Bryant Woods but combined capacity utilization in 5 area elementary schools below 100%. Furthermore, while the 2021 study anticipated 101.9% utilization at Bryant Woods this school year, unofficial enrollment at BWES for 2021-22 is 306 students (or ~85% utilization), as cited during the October 4 Council legislation session, suggesting that perhaps even the 2021 Feasibility Study projections are overstated.
Source: 2020 HCPSS Feasibility Report and 2021 HCPSS Feasibility Study
38 students (18 elementary, 6 middle school, and 14 high school) from Roslyn Rise were enrolled in HCPSS schools per the 2019 official enrollment report (2020 is an anomaly best ignored). The estimated students that may reside in the 95 net additional units proposed for Roslyn Rise is 47 additional students (23 elementary, 11 middle school, and 13 high school), using a projection methodology that analyzes student yields from comparable projects.
Bryant Woods will be in need of capacity relief at some point in the coming years given all the already approved residential additions coming to the area. This is a question of when, not if. While another 23 students from a redeveloped Roslyn Rise adds to that need, denying this development doesn't alleviate the anticipated school capacity concerns for the school.
Redistricting Bryant Woods students to nearby elementary schools with excess capacity is a potential tool that could be utilized to reduce utilization at Bryant Woods. In addition to the capacity that exists at nearby schools, including Swansfied ES and Running Brook ES, cascading reassignments once ES #43 (Mission Road in Jessup, 2027 occupancy) and ES #44 (Turf Valley, occupancy TBD) can free up space in the area as well. But any capacity reduction for Bryant Woods achieved through redistricting would necessitate either redistricting Bryant Woods walkers or moving out bus riders who were moved into Bryant Woods during the last redistricting in 2019, neither of which are ideal and is likely to face opposition from current Bryant Woods families. Still, redistricting would provide temporarily relief and buy time as the area awaits new capacity.
HCPSS's land bank contains 5 locations in the area for future school sites (Hawthorn Park and Faulkner Ridge, as well as 3 sites - Clary's Forest, Huntington Park, and Dickinson Park - that were donated by the Howard Hughes Corporation as a condition of Downtown Columbia redevelopment). The West Columbia area is currently third in line, and is planned to receive the County's 45th elementary school. However, HCPSS has no plans to build this school anytime soon. HCPSS's FY23 Proposed Capital Budget, which includes a 10 year long-range master plan, does not include any plans to build a new elementary school in West Columbia or provide a much needed renovation and expansion of Bryant Woods. The master plan does include a "TBD Regional Early Childcare Center". If that center was located at the Faulkner Ridge Center in Wilde Lake as the 2021 Feasibility Study suggests, it would free up classrooms at Bryant Woods and other nearby elementary schools that are currently being used for preschool, though Faulkner Ridge would first need to undergo significant and costly renovation.
Downtown Columbia is in the midst of transformation. As the area is modernized and improved with new businesses and housing options, our neighbors at Roslyn Rise should not be left behind in inefficient and inaccessible housing that is vastly inferior to the housing being built around them for other members of our community. We absolutely need more affordable housing in high-opportunity areas like ours, particularly in close proximity to employment centers like HCGH, HCC, and Downtown Columbia. In my mind, it's essential that as Downtown Columbia is built out, we remain true to Columbia's founding ideal that housing options exist for people of all income level. Adding density to compact areas helps reduce traffic and pollution by allowing residents to use their cars less, creating pedestrian and bike friendly environments thanks to the short distances between living, work, commercial, and recreational destinations. This helps support our local businesses, the art and culture scene, and enhances quality of life for all. For these reasons, I 100% support the PILOT and APFO waiver for Roslyn Rise, and I remain hopeful that the County Council will approve it at the next legislative session.
But, I also share parents and taxpayer's concerns about school capacity. As noted above, we are not yet at a breaking point. We still have years to come up with funding solutions to add school capacity in this area, but we need to focus our energy on solutions. Instead of debating how many students any given development is going to yield, I believe our community discourse would be better served examining the potential solutions to fund school capital projects.
One thing that frustrates me is that discussions about development in this county is frequently characterized as a trade-off pitting growth against adequate infrastructure. I reject that notion. Too often I see people throw up one's hand and say we can't grow - we can't share our prosperity with others - we must abandon Columbia's founding principles of inclusivity and our commitment to diversity and equity - that we shouldn't focus on lifting each other up but rather shutting newcomers out - that we can't have nice things like a thriving arts and culture scene or public transportation or new buzzing restaurants or retail - because we don't have room in our schools to add the density necessary to support growth.
Instead of playing into fears of change, I challenge our county leaders and neighbors to examine the relationship between growth, county services, and taxes and focus on solutions to add necessary facilities as we grow. This requires an evaluation of issues surrounding school construction, student yields and funding sources. Contrary to popular belief, the economic benefit of growth, particularly like the compact high-density growth happening in Downtown Columbia, helps fund infrastructure improvements needed to maintain services for both new and existing residents. Meanwhile, is adequate funding for school capacity being captured when a homeowner who purchased their house decades ago sells their house to a new family with kids? It seems contradictory to me when County leaders and fellow residents oppose important projects like Roslyn Rise on the grounds of school capacity concerns while also voting against or opposing legislation like CR85-2020 that would have modified recordation taxes to increase revenue for school funding.
If you want to share your thoughts on Roslyn Rise with the County Council, whether you agree with my perspective or not, there is still time. Please contact the Council (councilmail@howardcountymd.gov) to provide your testimony on CR144-2021 / CR145-2021.

In 2010, Hopelink led an effort to research community awareness of and attitudes towards local hunger. The results led to the formation of an intriguing model of engagement and action later to be called Nourishing Networks.
Nourishing Networks recognizes that the key to a hunger-free community rests in the hands of the citizens taking action. The network model supported passionate and diverse community members in a self-organized, self- sustainable way by connecting new and existing local projects to a larger network of people and organizations.
After learning of the extent of hunger among the children within the communities, those involved in Nourishing Networks developed a profound sense of ownership of resolving this issue. These newly formed networks brought together several hundred people from diverse sectors and cultures sharing their ideas, experience, resources, as well as existing work to help leverage the will of the community in new and deeply personal ways.
Nourishing Networks became an independent entity in July 2012, and left Hopelink, where it was officially founded. The Center for Ethical Leadership became Nourishing Networks fiscal sponsor and partner. In 2014, Nourishing Networks became an official organization under the name Nourishing Networks Central (NNC or The Central).
The Central's purpose is to provide real time applied learning and adaptation support to the local and regional Nourishing Networks. It role is part think tank to encourage new thinking; part incubator to encourage innovation; and part change agent to increase locally-based grounded action.
Since 1991, the Center for Ethical Leadership (CEL) has engaged with more than 15,000 people from 30 states and 35 countries. We envision healthy, just, and inclusive communities, where people and groups collectively define and create social change. Our mission is to cultivate leadership and build capacity for change, helping communities tap collective wisdom in service of the common good. Part think tank, incubator, and change agency, we invite people to reach across boundaries, build trust, and lead from their core values to advance change.
Since those early days, CEL has been a partner in developing, shaping and implementing the NN initiative. So it made sense for CEL to host the next round of incubation starting in July of 2012 through February of 2014 when NNC launched. CEL has taken a lead role in researching and applying network principles in the development of materials and processes such as principles, practices, design of gatherings and the architecture of network meetings. CEL has also provided coaching and facilitation for leadership teams to support the formation and development of local Nourishing Networks.
CEL continues to be a partner, capturing and documenting lessons, expanding understanding of application of network principles, offering coaching support, and co-designing gatherings and trainings for NNs.


My infographic explains how expensive higher education is in the United States. I hope that people will see how hard it is for high schoolers to afford college and to see how our costs here in the United States compare with those of our neighbors, Canada and Mexico. I think it's important that people know how saddled young people are with debt when they graduate from college these days.


2019 is the first year in which both editions of The Soul Show exist for BHM: the 20-something TSS of Pittsburgh, and the fledgling TSS(ii) broadcasting from the hills of St. Thomas to St. Croix, St. John, the BVI and eastern Puerto Rico. That means that Black History themes can be layered each weekend, so we did "The 1st Nine Years of Soul Train" and "The Early EWF Years" back to back on 2/2/19. TSS(ii) now streams at WTJX.org, TuneIn and Next on Saturday evenings at 8pm Atlantic/7pm Eastern, and its archives live here at soulshowmike.org.
Welcome to Black History Month 2019! In this first weekend on TSS Pittsburgh, we celebrate the life of James Ingram, discovered by Quincy Jones and whose voice beautifully melded silk with grit. Also, here's a reprise of a Soul Train special presentation, in which we sequentially represented each of Don Cornelius' first nine years. I sat down with Jamaican transplant Lloyd "Cookie" Willacy to discuss his intersections with Marley, and we reviewed "Kaya" and "Rastaman Vibration" in advance of an upcoming Legendary Album Series presentation at the Rex Theater in Pittsburgh. See the soulshowmike.org Concert Calendar for details.
…and in this Virgin Islands episode of TSS, we played a couple of tracks to honor James Ingram, the producer/songwriter who voice was discovered by Quincy Jones. Also, the trajectory of Earth, Wind & Fire's first and middle releases is covered over the nine segments of the show. Enjoy!

Q: IO Wait causing so much slowdown (EXT4 JDB2 at 99% IO ) During Mysql Commit I am writing an indexer, using python, which indexes documents and insert them into Database, Before it was single process but now i made it to multiprocessing with 4 parallel processes running.After every text extraction , it insert into database and does a commit.
Now it hitting IO problem , the main IO Problem is not my process but EXT4's jdb2 , journeling system. It is at 99.99% and casuing CPU to wait for IO at every MySQL Commit.
I saw many having that problem on the internet and their solution is to mount using barrier = 0 . Would that disable Journaling totally ? My Servers have UPS and tempting to do it , should i ?

A: Put the database on a non-journaling file system. At least larger servers (oracle, sql server) have their own journal function (transaction log) and optimize their IO accordingly. You have log and database on separate file systems and discs and rely on database internal functionality for handling bad IO. There are normally no (larger setup) file system changes except write date anyway because files do not expand - they would be generated with their "final" size (ok, admins can change that), and changes are as I said tracked by the database level transaction log.
You may also want to tell us what your hardware layer is. Most people underestimate that IOPS is the limiting factor for a database and think a small disc set is a proper environment for a large database. While some of us work on databases using a larger number of discs, thus potentially supporting a higher number of IOPS.

A: There is always going to be a trade off between resiliency and performance.
With MySQL on ext4 the barriers=1 default does indeed cause a slow down, however the first action should not be to disable journaling or to turn on data=writeback.
First, if resiliency is of high importance, a battery backed RAID is certainly well worth it.
The mount options I have chosen, especially on non-battery backed RAID are:
/dev/mapper/vg-mysql--data  /var/lib/mysql/data ext4  defaults,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered  0 0

This is intentionally not using data=writeback because I do not want to risk filesystem corruption resulting in "old data to appear in files after a crash and journal recovery" (quote is from man mount).
The ideal configuration in my.cnf for full resiliency around I/O related settings are:
[mysqld]
sync_binlog = 1
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1

I have opted for the following sequence of trade-offs to increase performance:

*

*sync_binlog = 0: this is the first MySQL config that I change away from the full resiliency.  The reason for this is that it gives a significant performance improvement, especially where binlog_format=row (unfortunately required for Jira).  I am using enough MySQL replicas in the cluster that if the binlog were to become corrupted by a power loss scenario I would do a binary copy from another replica.

*innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 2: While a value of 1 is required for full ACID compliance, with a value of 2 "the log buffer is written out to the file at each commit, but the flush to disk operation is not performed on it. However, the flushing on the log file takes place once per second also when the value is 2. Note that the once-per-second flushing is not 100% guaranteed to happen every second, due to process scheduling issues." (quote from MySQL docs)

*Update the mount options to use data=writeback.  Note that if this is your root file system you will also need to pass a kernel command line option.  I put together a few steps on that at coderwall.

*Test various values of innodb_flush_method.  O_DIRECT is shown to improve performance in some workloads, but it's not a given that this will work in your environment.

*Upgrade to SSDs, in which case you'll also want to increase innodb_io_capacity, and tune settings such as innodb_adaptive_flushing, innodb_read_io_threads, innodb_write_io_threads, innodb_purge_threads, and other possible settings.

A: This is an old question, but we faced the same issues (High IO waits, and terrible insert / update speeds) the past week on a new dedicated server and this solution addresses this issue directly.
Disabling journaling with tune2fs -O "^has_journal" /dev/<drive> was the quickest solution as it eliminates the IO wait because of the JDB2 process. But this isn't recommended unless you have a battery backed drive because you'll lose data in the event of a crash. InnoDB tables are safe if you have doublewrite enabled in MySQL. But files like .frm, logs, etc aren't safe. We tried moving these files to another drive (especially the bin logs) but the jdb2 IO wait still persisted. So it didn't leave us very comfortable.
data=writeback,relatime,nobarrier didn't help it speed up writes / reads as much as disabling journaling on the whole partition. More options for ext4 are in the EXT4 doc.
The real culprit in our case was sync_binlog. We had set is as 1 in /etc/mysql/my.cnf and it was killing performance.
Percona validates this here. We set it to it's default of 0 and performance shot up by over a 500%.

A: It is quite likely that your I/O backend is not coping with the load all that well. You should make sure your filesystem is not journaling data. I would suggest using the data=writeback,relatime,nobarrier parameters to mount for your database's data partition as the first quick&dirty optimization.
Also, deducing from your symptoms, you are apparently not using write caching with your controller. You should make sure you are using a battery-backed or flash-backed write cache on your controller and enable it - this should give you a significant performance boost without vastly increasing the risk of data loss or corruption. Note that using write cache without a battery or flash backup does increase the risk of data loss or corruption significantly - so only do this for testing purposes and/or if you can take the loss.

A: What database engine are you using to insert this data into?
If it's MyISAM: that must lock the entire table during a write, so running concurrent insert threads will kill ANY system, no matter how powerful.
Make sure you're using InnoDB for these tables.

A: Also, not directly related to mysql, but some HD have problems with ext4 due to aggressive power management... when that happens, the machine load increases without any apparent activity.
Try to disable it. first check whatever value you have (if you need to put it back without rebooting) and then disable it.
Check the current value:
    hdparm -B /dev/sda

Disable it
   hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda

(or whatever is your HD) and test. Probably will not help for most issues, but it might help some users out there. Rebooting will reset the value, or manually replace the 255 for the previous value.
If it helps, check the /etc/default/hdparm or /etc/hdparm.conf for a more permanent config, by setting it on boot.

Somewhere, there is a hurricane brewing. It may well be heading your way. Or, say a California news station just reported that the "Big One" will definitely happen next week. If neither of those scenarios set your heart racing, think of something simpler, like the upper part of your state is flooded and you know all that water has only one direction to flow — downhill to your city.
Last minute natural disaster preparedness pays. If the eye of the storm is headed your way and you've done nothing to prepare, simple steps can be taken to protect your business.
In other words, a natural disaster is about to occur.
Now let's assume, for the moment, anyway, that you haven't exactly been diligent in preparing for a disaster. After all, it couldn't ever happen to you. Except now it's about to. Or at least it might. What can you do to save data and avoid downtime without having to spend a fortune?
Lucky for you, here are a few tips to guide you through, until you put a long-term disaster recovery (DR) plan in place that will help you survive through nearly any type of catastrophe. These steps are meant to serve as a tourniquet, and we all know what happens when a tourniquet is left on too long.
Tape backups are a necessity. But they can't be relied on for rapid restores, and they may not be accessible immediately following a disaster.
"You can't use tapes for recovery, as it takes too long," says Gartner Analyst Donna Scott. "It's much more efficient to replicate data between two facilities."
That's exactly what law firm Chaffe McCall LLP, decided to do after Hurricane Katrina exposed the weaknesses of its DR planning.
"We lost access to our main New Orleans office for several weeks," says James Zeller, senior network manager of Chaffe McCall. "We restored critical functions within about a week using our Baton Rouge office."
However, that remote office lacked proper hardware to support a full recovery. Backup tapes had to be manually taken to high ground to avoid data loss. Several servers were moved from New Orleans to Baton Rouge right after the storm. Perhaps the biggest problem, however, was that the temporary headquarters didn't have enough desktops to cope with an influx of new users, so more had to be acquired.
To avoid all that heavy lifting in the event of another storm, the law firm added WANSyncHA software from Waltham, Mass. XOsoft (which CA recently acquired). This software-based approach to replication enables one office to fail over to the other. That, in turn, enables the company to remain up and running in the face of a natural disaster, without having to spend a fortune on hardware replication.
"We are now using XOSOFT for our SQL, Exchange and file servers to be replicated to standby equipment in the Baton Rouge office," says Zeller.
A good stand-by power supply is another staple of DR preparedness. Hurricanes tear up power lines, which then take a while to be rebuilt. Some companies tend to rely on batteries for such a contingency. Upgrading them is a smart thing to do in the face of trouble. It is a purchase unlikely to break the budget, but one that may not be enough if the devastation is severe.
Take the case of the University of New Orleans (UNO). Prior to Katrina, it shut down its data centers completely.
"We shut everything down, as we didn't want to rely on UPS [uninterrupted power supply] when there was no one here to monitor it," says Jim Burgard, UNO's Assistant Vice Chancellor for University Computing and Communications. "Other universities suffered significant damage after their UPS batteries went dead, and then the power came on and went off many times."
This summer, UNO upgraded its UPS and is adding a gas-fired generator, so it has an alternate power supply on campus. When completed, UNO will be able to run its servers, SAN and AC, despite city power being down.
"To remain operational, you'll need a generator and plenty of petrol/diesel which will have to be changed every six months, or you'll find that it doesn't actually work when you need it," says Clive Longbottom, an analyst with U.K.-based Quocirca.
Depending on the size and resources of the operation, however, setting up a replica site and backup power can be budget breakers.
"This sort of DR is expensive, and can usually only be done by larger companies," says Longbottom, "This, is where hosting can help."
Hosting companies have better DR plans than the majority of companies, have all the back up power that they need, tend to have multiple sites that can mirror each other, and have facilities built to withstand just about anything.
"Find the right provider that can help with the planning, personnel, and technology needed to protect your business from a disaster," says Lenny Monsour, director of product management at SunGard Availability Services in Wayne, Penn. "This is the first step in lowering disaster recovery costs."
SunGard offers a wide range of hosted options, from a mirror data center on hot standby to space to host a few servers in case of disaster. If the former can't be afforded, the latter provides a means of safeguarding at least the most crucial systems.
"It is practical to segregate your technology systems based on their importance to the operation of your business," says Monsour. "Applications that are critical to service delivery should be treated with a higher priority than back-office systems."
However, Gartner's Scott cautions that companies should not wait until a disaster is imminent before calling suppliers like SunGard.
"You need such resources to be involved in testing and recovery and your plan, so you can't just call at the time of a disaster," says Scott. "I would recommend hiring a part time consultant who can sit in on weekly meetings and become involved in regular testing of the DR plan."
Although technology is vital in an event, expert after expert stresses the primary importance of people. Even with replication in place, for example, Chaffe McCall realized it needed to do much more to be safe, particularly in the area of employee communication.
"We have taken steps to try to ensure better communication between employees after evacuation by setting up an emergency Web site and alternate Web-based email system for post-disaster communications, separate from our Exchange server," says Zeller.
The people side, of course, is generally less expensive than the technology elements that make up a comprehensive DR plan. Testing, for example, costs next to nothing yet is invaluable in the face of adversity.
"Make sure your people know what to do," says Mike Karp, an analyst with Enterprise Management Associates, based in Boulder, Color. "That means testing of your emergency systems now."
Chip Nickolett, a consultant at Comprehensive Solutions, a systems integrator based in Brookfield, Wisc., agrees. When disaster looms, he says, the first consideration should be the amount of time needed to safely get employees away from imminent danger. In lieu of a real plan, he suggests companies do as much as they can in the interim to bring systems to a consistent and known state, make backups, move away from the danger, and hope the losses are minimal. One way to do this is to work backward from the anticipated time of the event and do as much as is realistically possible within that limited window of opportunity.
"Knowing how long operations and procedures typically take is helpful data when determining what can be done in that remaining time," says Nickolett. "Getting a clean shutdown and full backups of your system, and then immediately removing those backups to a safe location is recommended."
What kind of backups? Karp suggests non-magnetic media, such as DVDs, because of their inherent durability.
"When the storm is this side of the horizon, backup the most critical data to some DVDs, put them in your briefcase and head for the door," he says. "And above all, never put yourself in the place of the IT guy who called up his vendor for support, asking 'How deep does the water have to be in the computer room before I push the red button?'"

Trustees approve apologetics major in Ph.D. program, add three faculty members
By Marilyn Stewart, NOBTS communications NEW ORLEANS—The New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary trustee executive committee approved a doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.) major in apologetics and elected three new faculty members during their June 7 meeting. "Apologetics is an area of strength at NOBTS," said NOBTS Provost Steve Lemke, adding that the Ph.D. major builds on the school's three master degrees in apologetics and has generated "great student interest." "In our postmodern, post-Christian culture it is simply irresponsible for Christian ministers not to be equipped apologetically," said Robert Stewart, director of the NOBTS Institute of Apologetics. "This means that our seminaries have to be on the leading edge of academic work in stating, defending, and providing reasons for the faith once delivered to the saints. This major is just one part of responding to this need." The board elected David Odom to the graduate faculty and Karla McGehee to the Leavell College faculty. In a presidential appointment, Adam Hughes was named Dean of the Chapel. Odom was elected associate professor of student ministry and director of the NOBTS Youth Ministry Institute. With experience in youth ministry at the church level, Odom served two … [Read more...]
Dismantling of evangelist Billy Graham statue in Nashville on hold for now
By Joni B Hannigan, Christian Examiner NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Christian Examiner) – One of Roadside America's popular sights, a larger-than-life bronze statue of world-renown evangelist Billy Graham, was to be dismantled and removed on Wednesday from the corner of Rosa Parks Boulevard and Commerce Street, where it has stood for more than a decade. Graham's likeness "was secured by grout," however, according to the Nashville Tennessean, which means the statue will remain in place for now. The 9-feet-4 inch statue of Graham with its beckoning 17-foot cross — perched at the edge of a parking lot owned by LifeWay Christian Resources, and across the street from the offices of the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention — was slated for removal as part of the sale of the LifeWay's historic 15-acre campus in downtown Music City USA.

"Louisiana College is blessed to have a stellar faculty, who continue in the tradition of excellence for which this institution is known," said Clark, who is also Chair, Division of Humanities.

Experiencing international missions without leaving Louisiana
By Brian Blackwell, Message Staff Writer Have you ever thought about participating in international missions? Well, here is your chance and you do not even have to leave the state in order to do so. On July 15, 50 South Korean students (fourth through eighth grade) will arrive in central Louisiana for the start of the annual Camp USA. And more than eight host homes are needed to house the students and their chaperones. A partnership of REACH Missions and the Korea Baptist Church Development Board, the camp will involve 25 churches in three Baptist associations. The children will participate in a Vacation Bible School at Alpine First Baptist Church and spend the afternoons participating in activities such as swimming, skating, English classes and fishing at area churches. After a week in central Louisiana, the campers will depart for southeast Louisiana (Ponchatoula area) where they will spend the remainder of their time. While there, the South Korean youth will participate with American children in a music day camp at First Baptist Church of Ponchatoula. The combined 90-voice choir will present Kidz Under Construction at 6:30 pm July 31 at First Baptist Ponchatoula. Tim Hisaw, pastor of Tioga First Baptist Church, said while … [Read more...]
Faith Baptist enjoys Holy Spirit movement, baptisms
By Brian Blackwell, Message Staff Writer BASTROP – Faith Baptist Church is in the midst of a four-month revival and there are no signs of it ending anytime soon. Since a city-wide crusade at Bastrop's Morehouse Activity Center and a revival at the church that took place in January, Faith Baptist has experienced significant growth in both attendance and baptisms. Pastor Bodie Spicer and his members recognize something special is taking place at the Morehouse Association church, and they wait with anticipation each Sunday for how the Holy Spirit will move. "When people start opening themselves to God and start listening and responding to the Holy Spirit and come to church with an expectation of hearing from God, then we see all sorts of miraculous things happen in everybody," Spicer said. "I pray each week that our worship services get out of hand, out of my hand, and that the Holy Spirit takes over. That's what I seek every week, and when it happens, it's very rewarding and very moving. I've been pastoring thirty years and some of the most rewarding times of my ministry are right now." The groundwork for the movement at Faith Baptist began in early January when the church participated in multiple evangelism training sessions … [Read more...]
UNFINISHED BUSINESS: Wife returns 2 months after husband's heart attack to complete the job
By Brian Blackwell, Message Staff Writer EVANS – Two months have passed since her husband unexpectedly died from a heart attack at the same homesite where she was now working as a member of an Illinois Baptist Disaster Relief team. Grabbing a bottled water to quench her thirst in the 90-degree Louisiana heat, Margie Fulkerson fought back the tears as she remembered the day her husband, Don, passed away while helping mud-out a home damaged by several feet of flooding. Gone are the days when the Fulkersons served side-by-side as members of the team from First Baptist Church in Galatia, Ill. The couple, who would have celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary in April, had served on 15 disaster relief trips together since their first assignment in 2012. As emotionally difficult as the decision was to return to work on the same house where her husband passed away March 29, Margie Fulkerson said returning to finish the job is what Don would have wanted. "He loved this kind of work and always wanted me to come with him," she said. "I wanted to finish this for him." Fulkerson returned with seven other members of the team from Illinois. They arrived May 20 and worked through May 27, placing sheetrock, installing insulation and … [Read more...]
God uses chance encounter to intervene in woman's life
By Brian Blackwell, Message Staff Writer HEBERT – One never knows how or when God will intervene. Kay Vinson, a member of First Baptist Church in Columbia, could see the despair in a young woman's face as Vinson approached the girl's vehicle on a Sunday evening in early March. She admitted to Vinson she was thinking about suicide. Vinson said just really did not know what to say, so she just allowed God to speak through her and the distraught woman eventually decided not to end her life. For Vinson it was a vivid reminder how God could use anyone for His Glory. The situation unfolded in early March, when Vinson and a fellow member of First Baptist Church in Columbia arrived in a driveway and encountered the woman. When the young woman discovered the First Baptist Columbia members were placing signs in yards as part of the Campaign for Christ effort, she immediately wanted to visit with them and question them about the hope they found in Jesus. Vinson said the woman described herself as a believer who had strayed away from her faith. The woman shared about her failed marriage and two previous attempts to commit suicide and she was contemplating trying a third time. When the conversation ended, the woman expressed her … [Read more...]
First Columbia's 'Campaign For Christ' getting the message out
By Brian Blackwell, Message Staff Writer COLUMBIA – The presidential race is in full swing, but one Louisiana Baptist church is in the midst of a campaign that reaps eternal results. Since February, members of First Baptist Church in Columbia have placed signs in the front lawns of homes and businesses in the parish. Based on 2 Corinthians 5:20, the Campaign for Christ is intended to remind believers they are representatives of Jesus. "If we're Christians, we're ambassadors," said Pastor Eric Harriman. "The signs have no church name on it because it's a campaign for Christ, not a campaign for First Baptist. If you believe you are on campaign for Christ, if you'll let us put a sign in your yard, it will remind you when you leave and when you come home that you're an ambassador for Christ." The idea was born during a weekly Monday evening men's Bible study at the church. Some men who had run for political office before told Harriman that during their individual campaigns, they had visited 95 percent of the homes in Caldwell Parish. Harriman concluded that if someone campaigning for office could visit nearly every home in an effort to get elected, First Baptist Columbia could do the same thing in an effort to spread the hope … [Read more...]
Sheriff orders child to stop sharing Bible verses at school
By Todd Starnes, Fox News ***This article was previously posted at the Christian Examiner and is used by permission. PALMDALE (Calif.) — A public school in California ordered a 7-year-old boy to stop handing out Bible verses during lunch – and they dispatched a deputy sheriff to the child's home to enforce the directive. "This is a clear, gross violation of the rights of a child," said Horatio Mihet, a Liberty Counsel attorney representing the first-grader who attends Desert Rose Elementary School in Palmdale. They are also representing his parents, Christina and Jaime Zavala. Mrs. Zavala made it a practice of including a Bible verse and encouraging note in her son's lunch bag. The boy would tell his friends about the note and read them aloud at the lunch table. To read the full story, click here … [Read more...]
Obama cites Bible's 'Golden Rule' and his faith to defend transgender bathroom directive to schools
by Stoyan Zaimov, Christian Examiner ***This article was previously posted at the Christian Examiner and is used by permission. WASHINGTON (Christian Post) — President Barack Obama said that his understanding of the Bible and his Christian beliefs led him to issue the directive at public schools calling on students to be allowed to use the bathroom of their choosing regardless of their biological sex. "My reading of scripture tells me that that [the] Golden Rule is pretty high up there in terms of my Christian belief," he said during a town hall in Elkhart, Indiana, according to Breitbart News on Thursday. When asked why he decided to make such a big issue out of school bathrooms, Obama explained that his concern stems from the bullying that transgender students experience. "What happened and what continues to happen is you have transgender kids in schools and they get bullied and they get ostracized and it's tough for them," the president explained. Obama said that he understands not all people agree with him, and added: "I have profound respect for everybody's religious beliefs on this, but if you're at a public school, the question is, how do we just make sure that, children are treated with kindness." The directive … [Read more...]

Anne Morelli (14 februari 1948) is een Belgische historica van Italiaanse origine gespecialiseerd in de hedendaagse geschiedenis van religies en minderheden. Ze is als professor verbonden aan de Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) waar ze vakken doceert met betrekking tot historische kritiek, Belgische overheidskwesties, godsdienstgeschiedenis, interculturele contacten en geschiedenisdidactiek. Ze is tevens adjunct-directeur van het Interdisciplinair Centrum voor de studie van Religie en Secularisme (Centre interdisciplinaire d'étude des religions et de la laïcité) aan dezelfde universiteit.

Standpunten
Morelli noemt zichzelf een atheïst en is een aanhanger van het extreemlinkse gedachtegoed.

Ze is bekend omwille van haar standpunten over sekten en nieuwe religieuze bewegingen. Net als andere sociologen en historici meent ze dat de Kerk enkel verschilt van sekten op het gebied van hun machtsrelatie. Volgens haar zijn sekten, in navolging van Michel Foucault, "totalitaire instellingen" zoals kloosters, gevangenissen, ziekenhuizen (enzoverder) die mensen als een nummer behandelen en vervolgens de indruk geven dat er een uniform geheel kan worden gevormd.

In 2005 zei ze tijdens de 36ste jaarlijkse conferentie van de Internationale Associatie van Instellingen voor Arbeidsgeschiedenis (IALHI) in Gent op een internationaal symposium over anti-globalisme dat geen enkele beweging ooit een verandering heeft teweeggebracht zonder het gebruik van geweld. Morelli maakte ook deel uit van een groep supporters die de leider van de terroristische groepering Cellules Communistes Combattantes, Pierre Carette wilden verwelkomen na zijn vrijlating uit de gevangenis.

Q: Handling with random button with Robot Framework I'm trying to use Robot Framework with SeleniumLibrary to click on a random button generator, the HTML was:

6 or 7

2 or 0

3 or 8

9 or 4

5 or 1

It will generete buttons to a field like:
[6 or 7] [2 or 0] [3 or 8] [9 or 4] [5 or 1]

These numbers shuffle everytime, so I'm trying to click using text but nothing what I tried works.
Is there any way to click with Robot using text in these buttons?

A: Chandrashekhar just asked my question, and it worked! Thanks again!
Just to be clear, the answer is:
Click Element                      //*[contains(text(),'1')][1]
Click Element                      //*[contains(text(),'4')][1]

Click Element                      //*[contains(text(),'8')][1]

You could use a class too to improve your element search:
