Remembering George Floyd & The Work of Becoming An Anti-Racist Organization
By Krystal Oriadha, NFSN Senior Director of Programs and Policy
No murder is without strong impact to a community, but the murder of George Floyd impacted not only the community of Minneapolis, but our nation and the world at large. On the tragic anniversary of his murder, I am reflecting on National Farm to School Network's year of growth and challenges as we move to operate more fully within our vision for a just food system.
Last year we made a statement to stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and declared our commitment to ensuring that National Farm to School Network will be an anti-racist organization. As a white-led organization, we knew we could not just be silent allies. We needed to speak up on these injustices within our communities with not only our words, but with our actions. We must be an organization that is actively – not passively – working to dismantle racism and to shift power whenever and however we can. That commitment aligns with the Call to Action for the food system we launched in October 2020: By 2025, 100% of communities would hold power in a racially just food system. This bold call to action is what is needed and what the movement calls for. If we do not shift who holds power in our food system, we will never achieve our vision for a just food system.
We also went through some challenges as we examined white toxicity in our own organization. This led to us to have very honest conversations about our organizational culture. As the only person of color in staff leadership and as a Black woman, I felt a strong need to push ourselves to not only talk about transforming the work we do externally but also look at how we can create an anti-racist workplace culture internally. To do this, we had to take an honest look at ourselves – as individuals and as a collective – and be willing to transform our own perspectives. This ongoing journey has not been easy, and it is not over, but we are committed to going on this journey, and to sharing it publicly. Over the last year, we've had to name and call out harsh truths as well as create space for uncomfortable conversations around issues of anti-Blackness in our own organization.
We are calling for other white-led organizations to do as National Farm to School Network has done. Do not just put out a statement in memory of George Floyd; make a public commitment to action both internally and externally, and then do that work. There are many staff of color suffering prolonged emotional trauma within organizations that put out statements of solidarity with communities of color while still creating and maintaining a toxic work environment for staff of color, showing that diversity is not truly welcomed. I am personally calling on organizations to think about the emotional tax paid by staff of color and to begin to work on addressing this within your organization's culture.

How Schools and Early Care Sites Served as Hubs for Food Access During COVID-19
By Sade Collins, NFSN Program Fellow
The COVID-19 emergency exacerbated inequities and activated new crises for the farming sector and for consumers across the food system. The pandemic led to shifting demands in the food system and prompted the government and communities to respond quickly to provide emergency support for actors across the food system. With food insecurity heightened, operators around the country demonstrated their ability to innovate and develop practices for fulfilling essential needs in communities across the country. Mitigating this crisis came with innovative approaches to supplying communities with fresh, local products through Community Supported Agriculture and emergency food operations. Community food organizations mobilized quickly to support local farmers and communities. In many communities, schools and early care sites became vital access points for local food through emergency food distribution.
As part of the Local Food Systems Response to COVID-19 project funded by USDA Agricultural Marketing Service, National Farm to School Network (NFSN) partnered with Farm to Institution New England and researchers from the University of Kentucky to develop an Innovation Brief: Pre-K and K-12 Schools as Access Points for Local Food to elevate examples from across the country of this innovation. However, we heard so many inspirational examples of schools and early care sites becoming hubs for food access, we could not fit them all into a single brief. Below, you'll find even more innovation and inspiration from NFSN partners across the country. Thank you to all the organizations who shared their stories with us!
Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project-ASAP (Asheville, North Carolina): ASAP launched the Appalachian Farms Feeding Families program to connect local farmers with food pantries/relief sites as well as with child care providers that have continued to operate as essential businesses throughout the pandemic. ASAP raised funds for this program from both corporate foundations and individual donors. ASAP staff acted as "matchmakers," connecting small farmers in the region and nearby feeding sites, including child care locations. ASAP awarded the feeding sites a monthly budget to be used to order local products on a weekly basis directly from their "matched" producer. Farmers are compensated directly for the products they grow and deliver to these sites.
Project GROWS (Staunton, Virginia and Waynesboro, Virginia): Project GROWS worked closely with Staunton City Schools (SCS), Waynesboro Public Schools (WPS), after school programs, various food pantries and farmers markets to continue to provide local food to families in the Staunton, Waynesboro and Augusta County community throughout the COVID-19 emergency. Using connections with farmers in the community, Project GROWS was able to help facilitate sales to the schools directly through the Harvest of the Month (HOM) program. Each month a different local farm was featured in virtual HOM videos and Project GROWS facilitated a sale of the featured HOM product to the schools from those farms to create HOM produce samples. According to Project GROWS, participation in the school meal program in their partner districts has actually grown amid the pandemic. With this increase in demand for food, produce sales to schools increased both from the Project GROWS own on-site farm and other local farms. The organization worked also worked with partners to create new pathways for local food to reach families during a time when access is very limited. This included participating in a fresh food box initiative through the local hospital, establishing an online farmers market for producers, creating a fresh food donation program at markets, facilitating a curbside pick up at market, accepting and doubling SNAP/P-EBT, and routinely donating food to food pantries, homeless shelters, and senior centers.
Farm Fresh Rhode Island (Rhode Island): Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Farm Fresh Rhode Island's local foods distribution platform, Market Mobile, connected farms exclusively to wholesale accounts such as restaurants, small grocers, Co-ops, food service management companies, and schools. When restaurants closed dine-in services, Market Mobile leveraged this existing infrastructure to launch direct to consumer food distribution, both to provide local food to residential communities, and to mitigate supply chain disruptions for farmers. Rhode Island worked with USDA Food Nutrition Services to obtain clearance to accept SNAP-EBT and to deliver food to SNAP recipients. Farm Fresh Rhode Island also developed a guide for farmers on how to obtain an FNS number and EBT card reader to accept SNAP sales directly.
REAP Food Group (Madison, WI): For over 10 years, REAP Food Group, in partnership with Madison Metropolitan School Districts (MMSD) Food and Nutrition, has processed local fruits and vegetables for elementary schools enrolled in the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) as part of the MMSD Farm to School Project, which focuses on increasing local food accessibility for preK-12 students. To ensure continued access to FFVP to all students, MMSD began distributing unprocessed items to FFVP schools in late September. School staff prepared and bagged local fresh fruit and vegetable snack items to be distributed for students learning at home. MMSD Food and Nutrition altered their entire service model to cater to the mostly virtual model for the district, packing over 50,000 meals weekly for a district with over 50% of 28,000 students receiving free or reduced lunch. REAP worked closely with MMSD to create a modified snack schedule that allowed for the local, seasonal component of the program to really stand out and gave REAP a chance to continue the program despite also having reduced capacity to safely receive and pack food.
Fairfax Public Schools (Fairfax County, Virginia): Fairfax Public Schools (FPS) started serving meals to families at the start of the pandemic. USDA waivers allowed breakfast and lunch meals to be served to children throughout the summer through the Summer Food Service Food Program and continued during the school year. CACFP meals and snacks waiver has helped provide meals to families. Additionally, the district continued the Food for Education Program (FFEP), which creates an additional opportunity to offer local foods to families. Funding from the National Farm to School Network (NFSN) COVID Relief Grant allowed for the continuation of FFEP through the summer by offering supplemental fruit at four school feeding sites. FPS distributed over 4,000 pieces of fruit to children through Summer 2020. NFSN COVID relief funding also provided support for Fairfax tp provide "Grow at Home" seed growing kits with printed activity cards, education and enrichment information for distribution at 65 meal sites. FPS hopes to expand the program through another grant in the spring.
From these examples, it is clear that many early care and education sites and schools involved in farm to school and farm to ECE leveraged their existing partnerships, resources, and infrastructure to shift their priorities and address the critical needs of families amid the COVID crisis. Schools and early care sites became a critical access point for Child Nutrition Program meals as well as local food boxes, food shares, and gardening resources and education. In many communities, local food organizations and aggregators have acted as key connectors across local food systems and emergency food systems. Now is a vital time to consider what we have learned from this experience and ensure that local and regional food systems as well as schools and early care sites are well supported and sufficiently funded so they can continue to be a bridge to good food for children and families.
News Release: Local School Foods Expansion Act Introduced in Senate & House
When schools purchase locally grown foods for school meals, it is a triple win for kids, family farmers, and local economies. Today, Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Congressman Peter Welch (D-VT) took an important step towards providing more schools flexibility in making impactful local food purchases by introducing the Local School Foods Expansion Act, which will expand the successful Unprocessed Fruit and Vegetable Pilot project to 14 states, while also increasing technical assistance and capacity building to improve access to this valuable program for schools with racially diverse and high-need student populations and for socially disadvantaged farmers. National Farm to School Network applauds the introduction of this bill and encourages all Members of Congress to support its inclusion in the upcoming Child Nutrition Act Reauthorization (CNR).
"This expansion of the Unprocessed Fruit and Vegetable pilot program offers participating schools the opportunity to cultivate their own purchasing relationships with local producers, which directly translates to kids eating more local, fresh, and unprocessed or minimally processed foods in school meals. Thanks to leadership from Senator Wyden and Congressman Welch, the Local School Foods Expansion Act will nearly double the number of states with access to this flexibility and increase vital technical assistance to maximize its impact," said Karen Spangler, Policy Director with National Farm to School Network. "National Farm to School Network is proud to endorse this bill because its provisions are directly responsive to what we have learned from schools participating in the existing eight-state pilot. With a renewed focus on equitable capacity building to ensure that small producers, Tribal producers, and schools in every community have the resources to benefit, scaling up this Pilot project so more states can participate is a promising opportunity."
The Unprocessed Fruit and Vegetable Pilot project was created as part of the 2014 Farm Bill and currently operates in California, Connecticut, Michigan, New York, Oregon, Virginia, and Washington. In addition to expanding the project to up to an additional 7 states, the Local School Foods Expansion Act will include $25 million for technical assistance to help schools in participating states build their capacity for local food procurement and to assist new produce vendors in being approved to sell to schools.
National Farm to School Network is advocating that the Local Foods Expansion Act, as well as other important marker bills that will advance farm to school and equity in the food system, be included in the upcoming CNR. National Farm to School Network is committed to supporting policies that build on six shared community values – economic and environmental justice, health, racial equity, workers rights, and animal welfare – which will move the country towards a just, equitable food system that promotes the health of all school children and benefits producers, workers, educators, and our communities.

What We're Advocating for in 2021 Child Nutrition Act Reauthorization
By Anna Mullen, NFSN Communications Director
This spring, National Farm to School Network is keeping a close eye on Washington, D.C. as Congressional leaders begin to build momentum for Child Nutrition Act Reauthorization ("CNR") – the package of bills that authorizes federal school meal and child nutrition programs. For the farm to school community, CNR is an especially important piece of legislation as it sets the standards and parameters of meals served to nearly 30 million children every school day.
A strong CNR built on our shared community values (read more about these below) can be a win for our kids by ensuring nourishing food is served in meals and snacks; a win for farmers by creating school market opportunities that provide reliable and consistent sales and fair pay; and a win for our communities by creating conditions for school food to be grown, distributed, prepared and consumed in ways that benefit everyone along the way. But for these wins to become reality, we must advocate for a CNR that is firmly centered in equity – and that's what National Farm to School Network is doing.
What is CNR? The Child Nutrition Act Reauthorization authorizes federal school meal and child nutrition programs including the National School Lunch Program, the School Breakfast Program, and the Child and Adult Care Food Program, among others. The package of bills that make up CNR is meant to be reauthorized every five years, but the last CNR to pass was the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. That makes this upcoming CNR a once-in-a-decade opportunity to strengthen the programs that feed our nation's kids.
CNR and Farm to School: The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 was groundbreaking for the farm to school movement. For the first time, this legislation supported farm to school directly by providing $5 million in annual mandatory funding for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm to School Grant Program. This was a major victory for National Farm to School Network and farm to school partners across the country, funding competitive grants and technical assistance for farm to school activities that increase the use of and improve access to local foods in schools. Since its inception, USDA has awarded over $52 million through Farm to School Grants, funding a total of 719 projects across all 50 States, the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and Puerto Rico, reaching almost 21 million students in 47,000 schools.
While policies like this can and have helped more schools across the nation create a pathway to practicing farm to school, there's more work that needs to be done to ensure equitable access to the resources, opportunities and benefits of these activities. Many of the systems and sectors that intersect with CNR's provisions – including the food system, education system and economic system, among others – are deeply racialized and have in the past and continue in the present to exclude, disadvantage, and cause harm to Black, Indigenous, Latino and other people of colors in our communities. Systems like these that are failing any of us are failing all of us, and we can not engage in farm to school effectively without changing them. That's why as CNR ramps up in 2021, National Farm to School Network is focusing intentionally on provisions that address systemic barriers in farm to school and create racial equity in the food system.
Equity at the Center: We believe that building the next CNR on six shared community values will help move us closer to the just, equitable food system, education system, and farm to school movement that we seek. You can read more about each of these values here.
These values can be realized in the next CNR through well-thought-out and equity-conscious marker bills, such as the Farm to School Act of 2021, the Kids Eat Local Act, the Universal School Meals Program Act, the Local School Foods Expansion Act, and others. You can read more about the marker bills we are endorsing and the CNR priorities we're advocating for here. A more just, equitable and community-centered CNR is possible and we must encourage and hold our Members of Congress accountable to making it so.
What Can You Do to Prepare for CNR? As the National Farm to School Network prepares for the likely return of CNR this summer we want to hear from you! As our name implies, we are truly a national network of stakeholders, and our policy agenda is driven by advocates like you. To prepare for the upcoming reauthorization, you can:

The making of 'Reijngold – The Raw Emotions of Halina Reijn' by Rahi Rezvani.
Halina Reijn Exhibition
In conjunction with the Book's launch, 200% will open a Pop-Up Gallery. A series of images from the Halina Reijn photo shoot, which features in the Book, will be exhibited at the Gallery, on the Rozengracht, in the heart of the Jordaan area of Amsterdam.
The series, titled 'Reijngold – The Raw Emotions of Halina Reijn', consists of 20 arresting images. The Toneelgroep Amsterdam actress portrays a range of emotions with the use of her face and her body. The Iranian-born photographer, Rahi Rezvani, has made a raw and intense series in which Reijn dramatically expresses emotional states that range from 'Shamed' to 'Lustful' to 'Psychotic'. In the backstage section of the 200% book, Reijn comments on the end result of the series saying: "There is more of me than has previously been seen in any of the shoots that I have ever done."
200% Fan
Also on display will be the 200% fan made by Sylvain Le Guen. The French fan designer pushes the boundaries of fan making. He has created other breathtaking fans, including a fan consisting of perfume tester cards for the perfumer, Francis Kurkdjian; a fan based on Matryoshka Russian dolls; and the creation of 29 fans for Sofia Coppola's film, 'Marie-Antoinette'.
For 200%, Le Guen has created an exquisite fan made from the four previous print editions of the publication. The fan consists of square and lozenge shapes that he extracted from the printed issues of the magazine. Unfolded, the fan will measure one metre wide by half a metre high.
The 200% Gallery has been closed.

The Germans had many different types of ammo for thier machine guns and cannon. Does anyone know how many of these different types will be offered in BoB? They had armor piercing, day tracer, night tracer, mine shells, high exposive, burning phosphorus, self destruct, and combinations of these put together. The Germans seemed to have a lot of specialized ammo for just about every purpose. Since we are going to be able to choose our ammo loadouts (which is really great by the way http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/25.gif) I would like to know which types for which calibers are going to be available. Maybe Oleg himself doesn't even know this yet but a little information would be nice.


Cask Strength to Play World Record Breaking Dance!
The band have the honour of playing for a world-record breaking attempt at the largest Strip the Willow ever attempted! The St.Andrew's Day street party in Edinburgh's Grassmarket will be one of the highlights of the years cultural celebrations, featuring acclaimed Scottish singer Dougie MacLean (writer of hit Scottish song 'Caledonia'). Dougie will be joined by Admiral Fallow frontman Louis Abbot and leading Scottish folk bands Blazin' Fiddles and Breabach!
The Cask Strength Ceilidh Band will play at a massive kids ceilidh during the day, and will be joined by mighty fiddler Adam Sutherland for the big dance later on! More info here.
Should be quite a spectacle!
However, the Orcadians' in Kirkwall have surely set us all an impossible task – and I do believe similar attempts have been made on both the wee Isle of Gigha at the mighty music festival there, as well a huge one for Oban's Bicentenary Celebrations.

Application to build nine new homes in St Albans village
Fraser Whieldon
Published: 11:04 AM November 27, 2018
The area of Smallford where outline planning permission is being sought from St Albans district council. Picture: Google. - Credit: Archant
An application has been made to build nine new homes in the St Albans village of Smallford.
Welwyn company District & Circle has applied to St Albans district council for outline permission for its project to build four-bedroom homes at 23 Station Road.
The development, which would be on the site of a former orchard, would have 27 parking spaces for the nine two-storey homes.
In a statement attached to the planning application, the developer has written: "[Our application demonstrates] how impact on openness and the purposes of the Green Belt will be neutral - the location of the proposals will not contribute to the coalescence of St Albans and Hatfield.
"It is better that the development of previously developed land, which is in a sustainable location, ought to be prioritised in preference to greenfield sites."
To see the application, search for 5/2018/2924 on the district council's website.

Q: How do you properly create a va_list dynamically at runtime for Cocos2D CCMenu menuWithItems? I'm having a hell of a time with the CCMenu class. To create a menu with this class it forces you to call a method called initWithItems, which takes a va_list. I need to generate this list at runtime, and I read that creating a C array and passing that can function just as va_list does under the covers, only it is failing.
I have an NSArray of items I want in the va_list, and these items are a SUBCLASS of CCMenuItem, the class that menuWithItems is expecting in the va_list. If you hardcode this list at compile time, it works fine, but my attempt to create this list dynamically is not working. What is wrong with this? MenuItemButton is a CCMenuItem subclass.
NSArray *menuItems = [self getMenuItemsArray]; // Returns an NSArray of MenuItemButtons
MenuItemButton *argList = (MenuItemButton *)malloc( sizeof(MenuItemButton *) * [menuItems count] );
[menuItems getObjects:(id *)argList];
CCMenuAdvanced* menu = [CCMenuAdvanced menuWithItems:argList];

This crashes at runtime, BAD_ACCESS. I know the va_list is supposed to be null terminated, I don't know if that is the case with my code here after calling getObjects, or if that is even the problem.

A: You could simply initialize the menu using nil.  For example,
CCMenu * myMenu = [CCMenuAdvanced menuWithItems:nil];

Then say you have a dynamic list of strings that you loaded at runtime, try....
// replace this with a dynamically loaded array of items...
NSArray* dynamicArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"red", @"blue", @"green", nil];

for (NSString* item in dynamicArray)
{
    CCMenuItem *menuItem = [CCMenuItemFont itemFromString: item target: self     selector:@selector(menuCallback:)];
    [myMenu addChild:menuItem];
}

A: va_list isn't always an array. With 32-bit gcc, it is, with 64-bit it isn't. Don't rely on it.
va_list is generated by a function that gets a variable number of arguments:
#include <stdarg.h>
void f(int x, ...) {
    va_list va;
    va_start(va, x);
    function_that_wants_va(va);
    va_end(va);
}
void g(void) {
    f(1,2,3,4);
}

College Writing Tips: How to Write A Persuasive Proposal
Sarah has a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and works as a manager of communications for a multinational risk management company.
Why write a Project Proposal?
There are many reasons a person may write a Proposal to Solve a Problem. That is why it has many different names. Sometimes it might be called a "Project Proposal," a "Persuasive Proposal," "Proposing a Solution," or simply a "Proposal." Perhaps it has been assigned by a teacher. Perhaps a boss has asked for it. Perhaps it will be used as a contest entry or as part of a grant proposal. Learning how to write a Project Proposal is advantageous because it is often necessary to persuade another person or people to ACT.
It is important to understand the distinction between a Proposal to Solve a Problem and an Argumentative or Persuasive Essay. In both genres, the writer is trying to persuade his or her audience to think or believe something specific. However, in a proposal to solve a problem, that persuasion must be accompanied by a specific, feasible action. For example, the writer of a persuasive essay may aim to make his or her audience believe that recycling is important, while the writer of a Proposal will aim to make his or her audience initiate a recycling program in their office building.
That means that your purpose as the writer of this proposal is to persuade someone to DO something.
Who is my audience?
Who may it concern?
Your audience for a Proposal to Solve a Problem should be specific. It is a good idea to pick a particular person or a committee. That means that your audience is not "all of the people in the world who might read this," or, for that matter, all of anyone anywhere. It is also not "the government," or any particular government agency. It is not, for example, "people who care about trees" or "people who like to cook," or even "all users of Match.com." The audience is A (named) Person or a (named) Committee of People. You will choose them based on your intended outcome.
The audience in the above example (see also the closely-related Research Proposal), a person at XYZ, Inc. wants their human resources people to start a recycling program in the office. The appropriate person here might be the director of the human resources department or the head of the Employee Programs committee. Addressing it to "XYZ, Inc." is too vague and it would therefore be ineffective. The same applies to "the employees of XYZ, Inc." The best audience is the person or people who reach XYZ, Inc. and the employees of XYZ, Inc., essentially on your behalf.
How do I present it?
Don't use second person if you can help it.
This article, you'll notice, frequently uses second person. What a hypocrite! You say. However, who is the intended audience? Well... you. You are the intended actor. Now, at this point, you may say, "Yeah, but the person who reads my proposal is my intended audience," and that's true. But, ask yourself, is that person the person who is going to actually do everything? Or are they just the person in charge? Are they going to buy the recycling bins to put by the copiers? Are they going to personally send out the e-mails? Maybe. But, for this paper, maybe isn't good enough, and turning a "maybe" into a "yes" makes you, the writer, cross boundaries you shouldn't cross. In other words, unless you feel comfortable telling another person how to do his or her job, using "you" is too pushy. And if they are not the person who will actually do it, then what you are saying by using "you" simply isn't true.
So, what's the alternative? Name the institution whose agents will be actually making the change. For example, "The human resources department at XYZ, Inc. could then send out a monthly e-mail to encourage employees to recycle." This names the secondary audience (the human resources department at XYZ, Inc.) AND the tertiary audience (the audience of the e-mail: the employees). This is a chance to improve the clarity of the piece. Simply saying: "You could then send a monthly e-mail to encourage employees to recycle," sounds casual and is not necessarily a good suggestion. Your audience's HR administrative staff might be the people sending e-mails, so your suggestion would not make as much sense to them.
So, your correctness here comes down to your choice of an audience. Who is the person/group of people who are mostly likely to be able to effect change? (Here, you may have already had an audience assigned, so your job now is to figure out what would make them the most sympathetic to your idea. You may have also picked an audience in your initial Research Proposal, so, if you want to address a different audience, it's a good idea to ask your boss or your teacher first.)
Checklist: Ask yourself:
Is this audience capable of addressing my issue in the way I propose?
Did I choose a specific person or committee (not just an organization)?
Did I avoid second person?
What do I include in the essay?
There are several ways structure a project proposal. It can be written as a letter to a specific person or committee, use headings and subheadings, or simply be written in traditional essay format (meaning Intro, 3-5 body paragraphs, conclusion). However you choose to format it, it is important to include these three things:
a compelling description of the issue at hand
a clear proposal for a solution
a justification for the solution/method for execution
Let's break down the parts.
What is a compelling description of the issue at hand? First, let's look at the word "compelling." Google's dictionary says that "compelling" means: 1. Evoking interest, attention, or admiration in a powerfully irresistible way, and/or 2. Not able to be refuted; inspiring conviction. So, a paraphrased version of that, through the lens of your proposal, is: Something is compelling when it is interesting, when it convinces people to pay attention to it, and when people are convinced of its truth.
The second word, "description," indicates that your job is to make your audience understand exactly what issue it is that you are talking about. E.g., In the XYZ, Inc. recycling problem example, the author would need to describe XYZ' Inc.'s lack of a recycling program. (Note: This may repeat information from any other research documents you have shared with your boss or teacher.) "XYZ, Inc. throws away 1 million pounds of paper each year instead of recycling it. According to Dr. Seymour Sycamore, the leading behavioral psychologist at the Healthy Workplace Institute, a consulting firm specializing in boosting workplace morale, the habit of throwing away materials that could so easily be recycled encourages employees to adopt an attitude of disrespecting their environment and the materials it provides. That includes their work environment." This description provides background information about the specific problem at XYZ, Inc.(1 million pounds of paper are thrown away), and places it in a global context. In a Proposal to solve a problem, it is important to describe the problem specifically and globally.

Here, it is also important to back up what you say with research. For example, the above problem might be described like this: "XYZ, Inc. does not recycle. That is a problem because every company who wants to get ahead in this world recycles. They are missing out on opportunities to reduce their carbon footprint and setting a bad example for their employees." That is a bad description. It is full of assumptions and could be said by any random yahoo on the street who's never opened a book in his life. Don't be that yahoo.
So, this part of the proposal gives you a chance to prove to your audience that the issue you are addressing is worth addressing. This is where you tell them it's a problem and describe the parameters of the problem. If you've done research already about the problem, this is your opportunity to show it off.
Checklist: Have I described the issue successfully?
Did I describe the problem specifically?
Did I describe the problem globally?
Did I describe the problem clearly?
Did I back up what I said with research?
Did I describe the issue in a compelling way?
What is a clear proposal for a solution?
A clear proposal describes the specific actions that your chosen audience will take. It may be necessary to lay out a plan in a step-by-step format. Perhaps presenting the plan of action in multiple parts would be effective. Choose the format that is most effective for getting your point across clearly.
In this part of the proposal, it is essential to be specific and to present feasible actions. Your choice for the solution is directly related to the specificity of your audience. That means that if your audience is too vague, your solution will ipso facto be too vague. If you choose "all the companies that don't recycle" as your audience, then your solution will have to be for all the companies... Think about the logistics of that. How would you tell "all the companies"? In fact, how would you tell "a company" without knowing which one? This goes for "radio stations," "TV stations," and "people who care about gun laws" as well. While knowing that your audience exists on this broad level is a great place to start, it is not specific enough to actually effect change.
So, a solution is feasible if it can be done and you describe how it can be done. It is your job to convince your audience to act by making them seem like acting is sensible. You say, "I want XYZ, Inc. to reduce their paper waste by 500,000 pounds this year," and the first thing someone says is, "How?" A good solution will answer that question thoroughly.
Checklist: Have I described the proposed solution successfully?
Is my solution feasible?
Is my solution specific?
Does my solution match my audience?
What is a justification for the solution/method for execution?
This often seems like the hardest part: justifying the solution. However, you've probably already done most of the work. Your research that helped you understand the problem and come up with a solution required that you understand the justification for the solution.
Now the question is: how do I choose what to include? The answer is similar to your description of the problem. The justification must be compelling and it must make sense. So, if you have information that is related to the solution, choose the information that moves your solution forward.
You may wonder, "I chose a specific group of people to carry out my solution. Do I justify my choice of the group or my choice of the actions my audience should take to achieve the solution?" Ask yourself: "Which information will be the most useful in service of your solution?" In most situations, the description of the actions to be taken are the most justification-worthy. The following example: "The Human Resources department of XYZ, Inc. should make it easy for employees to recycle. One very effective way to do this is to place recycling receptacles next to the copier, which can be bought from Green Earth, Ltd. Studies show that workplaces with recycling bins next to the copier reduce their unrecycled paper trash by 75 percent," is much more effective than a description that justifies why it would be a good idea to buy from Green Earth, Ltd.
Checklist: Have I justified the solution successfully? (Ask yourself these questions about EACH PIECE of the justification for the solution. Analyze each fact on its own, not the section as a whole.)
Does this information make the solution plausible?
Do these facts give the audience the information they need to act?
This article gives a general overview of proposal writing and offers ways to think about the different components. Of course, following it to the T will not necessarily get you the results you want. It is the nature of proposals to be vastly different from one another, so remember the whole time to THINK. The main three questions you should ask yourself through the proposal-writing process are: "Is this clear?" "Am I being specific enough?" "Does this make sense?"

Coastal Art in South Walton
Artists draw inspiration from what's around them, and there's plenty to draw from when you're surrounded by sugar-white sand, turquoise water and a one-of-a-kind ecosystem. Some of South Walton's most prominent artists have put their own spin on their home and environment, and it's worth your while to check them out.
Marisol Gullo's work captures many themes but is always heavily inspired by the colors, textures and subjects of South Walton. The 2017 Artist of the Year's piece, Heron in Flight, is a great example of this.
Andy Saczynski brings together local inspiration and local found objects to represent the coast. The 2013 Artist of the Year is best known for using repurposed and recycled materials like instruments, furniture and other found objects to create work inspired by local wildlife and nature. His piece below, Dorado, as well as the piece shown at the top of the article, Western Lake, are representative of his love and passion for the area.
Nature drives Justin Gaffrey's creativity, though his subject matter is broad. The 2005 Artist of the Year enjoys exploring new things via his art but is always heavily influenced by the area he's called home for decades. His piece, Sunset at Western Lake, exemplifies his unique take on the local landscape.
2018 Artist of the Year Kathleen Broaderick's work focuses primarily on the local flora and fauna in South Walton. She's very directly inspired by the beach and the opportunity to live and work near it, and her pieces, Western Lake and Three Little Birds, below, are great representations of the inspiration she takes from the coast.
Looking to explore coastal art further? South Walton is home to a variety of art galleries, local boutiques and interactive experiences where you can truly immerse yourself in the South Walton art scene. Events like the annual Digital Graffiti in Alys Beach show how magical art can be, especially when it's on display in a remarkable setting.

To illustrate that perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle concur at a point(called the circumcentre) and it falls inside for an acute-angled triangle, on the hypotenuse of right-angled triangle and outside for an obtuse-angled triangle.
Circumcentre of a triangle is the point of intersection of all the three perpendicular bisectors of the triangle. It is where the "perpendicular bisectors" (lines that are at right angles to the midpoint of each side) meet. The circumcentre of a triangle is equidistant from its vertices and the distance of the circumcentre from each of the three vertices are called circum-radius of the triangle.
All vertices of triangle are equidistant from circumcentre.
Circumcentre is also the center of circumcircle.
For acute angled triangle it lies inside the triangle (see fig(a)).
For obtuse angled triangle it lies outside the triangle (see fig(c)).
For right angled triangle it lies at the mid-point of hypotenuse (see fig(b)).

1 High-efficiency large-angle Pancharatnam phase deflector based on dual-twist design Kun Gao 1, Colin McGinty 1, Harold Payson 2, Shaun Berry 2, Joseph Vornehm 2, Valerie Finnemeyer 2, Brian Roberts 2, Philip Bos 1* 1 Liquid Crystal Institute and Chemical Physics Interdisciplinary Program, Kent State University, Kent, OH 2 M.I.T. Lincoln Laboratory, 244 Wood Street, Lexington, MA Corresponding author: Pancharatnam made clear the concept of a phase-only device based on changes in the polarization state of light 1. It was later shown that this concept could be used to make an optical device that could simulate a prism. We have previously shown through simulation that an optical beam deflector based on Pancharatnam phase can provide high efficiency with up to 80 deflection using a dual-twist structure for polarization state control 2,3. In this report, we demonstrate that its optical performance is as predicted and far beyond what could be expected for a conventional diffractive optical device. We provide details about construction and characterization of a ±40 beam steering device with 90% diffraction efficiency based on our dual-twist design at 633nm wavelength. A device of this type is sometimes called a circular polarization grating because of the polarization states of interfering light beams that are used to fabricate it by polarization holography 4. Here we will call it a Pancharatnam phase device to emphasize the fact that the phase of diffracted light does not have a discontinuous periodic profile but changes continuously. Previous approaches to provide large angle optical beam steering devices have not been able to provide the required performance. Bragg gratings can provide large angle beam deflection; however, the angle of incidence and wavelength are restricted by the Bragg condition. Optical phased arrays that have a saw tooth phase profile with an optical depth of one optical wave have been shown to also provide high efficiency, but their efficiency drops if the deflection angle is larger than about Devices based on Pancharatnam phase have been proposed by Crawford, et al. who have shown a basic method for producing them using liquid crystal (LC) based technology 6. Broer and Escuti then showed excellent devices from this method 7. Recently, further demonstrations attempting to overcome the limitations of previous approaches have been reported, with an even wider range of potential applications 8-13.
4 4b shows the effect of the optimized layer on incident light with left circular polarization (LCP) or right circular polarization (RCP). When this single DTPPD is combined with a second one that is constructed by using a chiral dopant ZLI-3786 (R-811) with the opposite twist, the structure of Fig. 1b is realized. The resultant device can deflect light to +40 or 40 by changing the input polarization state of light from RCP to LCP as shown in Fig. 5. The measured efficiency of this device is 90%, very close to the result of 92% predicted by FDTD simulation. (See Methods for details.) In conclusion, we have demonstrated a ±40 beam steering device with high-efficiency based on a Pancharatnam phase deflector with a dual-twist structure using simulations and experiments. While these devices have a strong wavelength dependence, this report demonstrates that a device with a structural periodicity near the wavelength of light can deflect light to large angles with efficiencies close to 100%. The demonstrated dual-twist design and fabrication procedure opens the possibility for making a high-efficiency wide-angle beam steering device, a lens with f-number less than 1.0, and a wide range of other potential applications in the optical and display industries.

Yee s grid for FDTD simulation is an effective method of computing electromagnetic problems 18. By directly solving coupled Maxwell s curl equations with few approximations, FDTD is also a robust method for dealing with light propagation problems in birefringent media 19,20. It has been shown that FDTD can provide precise simulation results for Pancharatnam phase devices 15,21. Therefore, we have chosen the FDTD method as our simulation tool to study the efficiency of large deflection angle devices. The simulation program is written in BOSLAB at the Liquid Crystal Institute and used for the simulation of DTPPD in variable conditions. The details of FDTD simulation and results generated in this report can be seen in Supplementary Information. Fabrication and measurements. To prepare photo-alignment films, BY material was dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF) solution with fixed concentration of 1.5% by weight. The solution was spin-coated onto substrates at 800 rpm for 5 seconds and then 3000 rpm for 30 seconds. The films were dried in an oven at 120 C for 30 minutes. This layer is a thin photo-sensitive film showing anisotropic response to the polarization axis of light. We then use polarization holography alignment technique to expose BY, and coat several layers of 10% RM257 dissolved in Toluene until it achieves the thickness of half-wave plate at 633nm wavelength (Supplementary Fig. 7). An efficiency test was performed after each layer of RM257 coated to monitor if it has reached the maximum (Supplementary Fig. 8). We stopped coating at the 10 th layer of RM257 when the chiral dopant is added for a single optimized 40 DTPPD. Then we measured both the transmitted and reflected intensity of light for each order in ±40 beam steering by combining 1 st and 2 nd DTPPDs together to realize the proposed design shown in Fig. 1b. The intrinsic efficiency is calculated based on the total transmission of +1 st, 0, 1 st -orders (Supplementary Table 1&2). References 18. Yee, K.S.

"We decided to sell our house after I'd had our second baby," says Megan. "The place we had was lovely but with two little ones running around it was going to feel awfully cramped so we decided to move to a bigger home. We found the perfect place just two miles from where we were living and started the proceedings not long after I'd given birth. Obviously, with a two year old and a newborn baby, I was extremely busy and Tony works long hours so we wanted it to be as hassle-free as possible.
"We had heard all about Home Information Packs and knew we had to get one but we weren't sure where to start. A friend of mine told me her estate agent had compiled the HIP for her when she moved house two months earlier and she said it was relatively easy so we decided to ask our estate agent to do the same.
"When it came to marketing the house the estate agent did a fantastic job and a buyer was found almost immediately. Unfortunately the same sort of service was not offered when it came to the HIP.
Does More Money Mean a Better HIP?
"We didn't go into it blindly, we did our research and found that HIPs generally cost around £150-£200. However our estate agent told us we would actually be charged closer to £300. We enquired as to why this was and he said the provider was a reputed firm and that's the type of money you'd be looking to pay to "get the job done right".
"In fairness we should have told him there and then not to bother but with the children and Tony's job we just couldn't find the time to look elsewhere. We were foolish but we decided to go ahead with it.
Megan and Tony are not alone. Press reports have revealed some estate agents have 'deals' with HIP providers and receive a big commission for bringing clients to them. This means that even though the estate agent knows this is not the best deal for the consumer he may encourage them anyway.
There is no set rate for HIPs so providers can technically charge what they like and if a reputable estate agent is recommending them even those with extortionate prices can receive a lot of custom.
The best way to ensure you get a good deal is to shop around, take the time to compare prices and don't rush into anything. You could save yourself a small fortune by being smart when it comes to getting your HIP.

    protected $_primary = 'codigo_entidad_salud';

        $query = $this->fetchAll($consulta)->toArray();
        return $query;

    }

}

PRINT OF CONSULT [print_r($datos_entidades); - in controller]

According to the above result, I require print:

I think it should work with something like:
        while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($datos_entidades)){
                echo $row['codigo_entidad_salud'];
        echo $row['nombre_entidad'];
}

A: What you need is foreach loop to iterate through an array.
foreach($datos_entidades as $row){
    echo $row['codigo_entidad_salud'];
    echo $row['nombre_entidad'];
}

Note: The display logic should fall into the view file, you should pass data to view & in view file you need loop to display the records.

A: You are converting The results into array,
you can do what Rikesh Suggested as,
foreach($datos_entidades as $row){
    echo $row['codigo_entidad_salud'];
    echo $row['nombre_entidad'];
}

And you can pass $datos_entidades to View Script
as $this->view->data= $datos_entidades;
and you will be able to use,
foreach($this->data as $row){
    echo $row['codigo_entidad_salud'];
    echo $row['nombre_entidad'];
}

in your view script also,
an alternate approach,
You dont use toArray() in  $query = $this->fetchAll($consulta)->toArray();
just use,  $query = $this->fetchAll($consulta);
and you will be able access it like following,
foreach($datos_entidades as $row){
    echo $row->codigo_entidad_salud;
    echo $row->nombre_entidad;
}

and will be able to access same way in view script also.

Wpromote is a market leader in social media advertising, constantly pushing the boundaries of what businesses can achieve online. Keep reading and discover why Wpromote offers the most impactful social media services in San Francisco, and how our expert team of Social Media Managers can help grow your business.
Wpromote experts have long been leaders in the social media industry, especially as it has shifted from an earned to paid focus in the last several years. As one of only five Facebook partner agencies, we have been recognized as leaders in the space and are given access to exclusive alphas and betas, as well as a dedicated account team.
All of our Social Media Managers are Facebook Blueprint-trained and regularly deliver impactful results to their clients. Working with local businesses and large corporations alike, our social media team has the solution you need. Every social media strategy will be custom tailored to your company, ensuring it aligns with your business goals.
Still not convinced? Don't take it from us; take it from the businesses who we've helped grow beyond their expectations.
Social media marketing is the use of social media networks and applications to spread brand awareness or promote specific products. Many social media strategies focus only on brand awareness through organic posting, while entirely ignoring the paid aspect. Paid has become necessary in recent years as social algorithms favor very specific content and generally require a budget to ensure the target audience is being reached in an effective manner.
At Wpromote, we understand how to effectively tap into both earned and paid social strategies and have been recognized for doing so by many of our clients. Your Social Media Manager will leverage the right platforms and campaign objectives to ensure we are meeting your business goals. Learn more about our social media process below.
To begin, we will immerse ourselves in your accounts to get an idea of what has been tried in the past, and where successes and failures came from. This will give us an idea of a good starting point for our first campaigns.
A deep dive call will allow us to get a sense of both your business goals and what you will expect from your social media campaigns. This will inform us of what the best strategy moving forward will be, what platforms we should be running on, and the proper campaign objectives.
Your Social Media Manager will ensure that the correct pixels have been placed on your website so that we have full visibility into campaign performance, and can effectively build retargeting audiences based on site visitors.
Account Managers will build high-intent audiences that will help to drive results at the most efficient rate possible, and will continually refresh them to ensure there is no audience fatigue.
Having regular calls and reporting will allow us to share overall account performance with you and show how what we are doing aligns with your business goals. Additionally, this allows us to stay abreast of any upcoming initiatives we should be aware of and for general collaboration.
Our Social Media Account Managers will be looking at your account every day and optimizing campaigns to ensure we are maximizing performance. Whether it's running A/B tests or testing a new platform, you can rest assured knowing Wpromote is maximizing your budget.
Your Social Media Manager will present you with any opportunities for growth as they arise. Whether it is testing a new platform or a new ad unit, you can be confident that we will find any way to move your social media presence forward.
Websites and apps that allow users to create and share content or participate in social networking.
Organic social media is acquiring traffic through owned social media, using platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram to drive traffic to your website and engage with your user base. Organic social provides free traffic from your social media following and gives you the opportunity to build a social media community.
Paid social media is leveraging social ads to drive traffic to your website by putting money behind social media posts. Paid social allows the targeting of specific audiences and can help to increase your reach to people you want being exposed to your products or services.
Why does my business need social media advertising?
Without social media, you are missing a real-time opportunity to engage and communicate with your audience. Additionally, you are not capitalizing on an opportunity to target new audiences and expose them to your brand.
Where can I learn more about social media?
Check out our blog, where we often have posts on social media topics and news. Also visit Wpromote University, where we have plenty of guides on various aspects of social media.


We pray that all is well with you. G-d is blessing us all the time. Be blessed, be healthy, be safe, be found in Yeshua.
Ministry News from Rabbi Jay Fielding at Beth Chaim Messianic Congregation.
Beth Chaim is a Messianic Congregation in Marietta, Georgia run by three ordained Jewish Messianic Rabbis: Jay Fielding, Senior Rabbi and Founder, Aaron Evans, Service Leader, and Kevin Dangler, Worship leader. We began as a congregation almost one year ago June with about 8 people. We have grown to about 25 regular members and visitors each Shabbat.
We are an active member of the Southern Baptist Messianic Fellowship. President Rabbi Worshill, Vice President Jay Isbell, and the other executive members and member congregations have provided us significant help, prayers and encouragement to empower our success.
Eastside Baptist Church, www.ebcfamily.org, has become a partner with us in Jewish Outreach. They provide us wonderful facilities to meet in each week, help with facilities and church administration and finance, allowing us to focus on our congregation mission and objectives discussed below and on our website www.bethchaimmc.org. Dr. David Chauncey is Senior Pastor at Eastside and Reverend Joey Garner is our direct sponsor and Minister of Family Discipleship and Missions. We are very thankful to our friends and partners at Eastside.
We recently had our first congregational Seder in partnership with Eastside Baptist Church. We had over 320 people, including Jewish seekers, Beth Chaim members, over 120 Eastside Baptist Church members and staff, 8 other church and ministry visitors and individual families who heard about our Seder from friends or our website.
I delivered an introductory message of the importance for the Church to incorporate the Passover and other Hebraic Holidays into Church life as sign to the Jewish people that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah. The message also spoke to our Jewish Brothers and Sisters that God has always been concerned about our eternal life and the impact of sin on our relationship with God. We shared that Jesus is the true Passover Lamb whose blood took away the sin of the world and the need to come to Him in faith to receive eternal life and forgiveness of sins. Rabbi Aaron Evans led our Seder with a dais of Michele and I, some of our leaders and deacons and the leaders for the Eastside Singles, Dan and Sandy Fisher. Rabbi Kevin and Lynn Dangler led a magnificent Davidic Dance and Worship program incorporated into different sections of the Seder. With help from Eastside staff and Singles we set up 39 tables with the full Seder ceremonial materials so each guest could participate in the Seder with the dais leaders. We catered through Eastside a great meal and a provided a full Seder Program for them to take with them.
We received very positive feedback from many of our guests and Eastside Baptist Church which has committed to helping us again next year. We look to outreach to more Jewish people to attend.
We meet every Shabbat morning, Saturday, for a worship and teaching service from 11:15 AM to 1:15 PM followed by fellowship with light refreshments-lunch. We hold special services for all the Lord's Appointed Feasts of Israel and other Hebraic holiday's within their meaning in Messiah! You'll be blessed by joining us!
1. To provide a congregation that disciples our members, encourages fellowship and friendships, and allows Jewish and Non-Jewish people to worship, learn, and grow within the Hebraic roots of the Christian faith. We define Christianity as the extension of Judaism to both Jews and Non-Jews through faith in the Jewish Messiah.
2. To allow Jewish Believers and Jewish seekers an opportunity to keep their identity as Jews and come to a growing relationship with Jesus Christ as Yeshua HaMashiach, their Jewish Messiah for salvation. We teach righteousness and spiritual growth comes only from God through submission to the Holy Spirit living inside the heart of each Believer.
3. To be a humble servant to our local Church community providing resources, services, events and congregation to assist them in being more effective in their Jewish witnessing and outreach. In this regard, we have gone out to churches as guest speakers with Davidic Dance and teach a Wednesday night class at Eastside Baptist called, Jesus in the Old Testament".
1. Thank you for praying that we would be able to buy plane tickets from Siberia to Moscow. We were able to find reasonably priced tickets. However because of an internet glitch I also bought another pair of tickets, that I now need to return. Please pray that I will be able to return them and get my money refunded without any problem.
2. Last Friday evening 2 Russian women who live in Yekaterinburg (one of the cities in Siberia we will be visiting on our trip) and are involved in Jewish ministry came to Moscow and stopped by my house for a visit. One of them has come to Moscow several times but it has not worked out for us to meet before. This time we had a great time of fellowship and learning more about each other's ministries. They are very excited about our visit to their city and want to set up a meeting with others there who are involved in Jewish ministry. This meeting was certainly God's providential timing.
3. On Saturday evening I attended a meeting of Messianic leaders. Besides those of us who live and work in Moscow there were two visitors from Israel (both Russian immigrants), one from Canada and two from the US. The meeting was very informal and I got to spend a good amount of time talking to the other English speakers. It was a great chance to hear what God is doing in other parts of the world and to network with like minded believers.
4. On Monday some IMB trustees were in Moscow to meet with those of us who serve here. We had a meeting in the morning where each team leader gave a brief report about their ministry and team. Then in the afternoon several of us took our guests to see Red Square and the Kremlin. I enjoyed getting to know these 2 men and their families better. We are very appreciative of the work that our trustees do and the commitment that they have to our ministry here in Russia and all over the world.
On Wed, May 7th Donna and I are going out to see the facility that we are using for camp. This will be an opportunity for us to make a deposit (they are giving us a 5% discount, which we are very grateful for) and to once again check out the grounds. Last time they were still under snow so this time we should be able to see them a bit better. The volunteer team coming from the States has lots of questions about the facility so hopefully we will be able to answer them after going out there again.
We have still not found a hotel for the volunteers who are coming in July. I have never had such a difficult time doing this before. We really need to get this done this week so that the team can start their visa application process. Please pray that we will find the right place for them to stay and be able to make the needed reservations SOON!
We have had a very small group at our English club the last few weeks. Next week will be our last lesson for this school year and we will have a year end picnic after we return from Siberia. Please pray that we will be able to connect with those who haven't attended for a while. We want to invite them and their friends to English camp. Please pray for God to make a way for those who He is calling to come to camp.
Wed, May 7th Israel is celebrating its 60th year of independence. There will be many celebrations there and in Jewish communities around the world. Please pray for God's blessing on these celebrations. This is a prime time for terrorist attacks so please pray also for God's protection on His people. As Jewish people around the world contemplate the miracle of Israel's re-birth as a nation, may God use this celebration to turn their hearts and eyes back to Him.
Friday, May 9th is V Day Europe. This is the date that Russians and other Europeans celebrate the end of WWII in Europe. There will be big parades at Red Square and other places throughout the country. Another Jewish ministry will be having an outreach at Victory Park on Friday. There will be lots of people milling around the park so it is a great time to try to engage people in spiritual conversations. I also hope to participate in this event. Please pray that God will bless our efforts and that many people will come to know the true freedom that comes only through a relationship with their Messiah.
Thank you so much for holding up these important requests this week. I couldn't do what I do without your prayer support. May God richly bless you this week.
PRAISE HIS NAME!-God bless you and your family! Thank you for your support of our ministry. Please pray for BOLDED names in this newsletter as well as other OUTREACH not specifically mentioned. Please pray for our TUESDAY NIGHT FELLOWSHIPS, JESUS LOVES YOU T-SHIRT MINISTRY, a booth at the "Taste of Alpharetta" Thursday, May 15 5pm to 10pm (please join us) and a MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND OUTREACH which includes a party at my home Sunday, May 25 6pm to whenever (please join us).
THE DAY AFTER-Thank you so very much for your prayers. Every time we send out our newsletter, we know you are praying because the most incredible things happen the day after we send it out! Last month we wrote about me running into TODD (new Jewish believer)'s FAMILY all over Atlanta. The day after the last newsletter went out, I ran into Todd's aunt ALICE (Jewish non-believer) and cousin LAURIE (Jewish non-believer who just happens to live on my street) at a local restaurant and it was the first time Alice saw my "Jesus Loves You" t-shirt. Her expression of surprise was most interesting and she barely said hello to me. That same day INA (Jewish non-believer widow) actually came to church with us for an International Missions Banquet our ministry was a part of! Also that day, STEPHANIE (new Jewish believer) called me for the first time in three months! I had met her while working out with RYAN (Jewish non-believer) at the gym sometime last year.
LUASANNE CONSULTATION ON JEWISH EVANGELISM - LCJE is a group of leaders from Jewish Evangelistic organizations who discuss relevant topics and network. This year's meeting was in Boston, Massachusetts. While in Boston, we had lunch in an Orthodox restaurant where many were challenged by my "Jesus Loves You" t-shirt, I was able to give Hebrew tracts to the five ISRAELIS working at the mall across from our hotel and my friend ABRAHAM and I distributed hundreds of Gospel tracts in Brookline, a Jewish neighborhood of Boston where I shared with PABETTIA (Russian Jewish non-believer). On a previous mission trip I gave up my seat in return for a $400 voucher and a later flight. I used that voucher for a $299 ticket to Phoenix and had a $101 balance. I tried to apply the balance to my $421 ticket to Boston, but was only charged $21? While at the airport, I told them what happened and the service representative laughed at me? She told me to call customer service and she too laughed at me and said I had good "karma" and to forget about it?
PRAISE THE LORD - Several of my FRIENDS came to church on the Sunday our new Pastor, DR. AARON MENIKOFF was preaching and voted in! Please pray for Dr. Menikoff and his wife DEANA (who both have FATHERS with Jewish blood) and their three CHILDREN. They will officially join our church in June.
OY VEY! - My friends and I went out to lunch after church. I wasn't wearing my "Jesus Loves You" t-shirt, but an obviously Jewish woman stared at me? She kept looking and looking? I finally realized it was Todd's aunt EILEEN (Jewish non-believer) who I just met at Todd's brother CHAD's wedding. She read the false article about me in the Atlanta Jewish Times several years ago, knew I was friendly with Todd and didn't like it?
BLAST FROM THE PAST - I took MIKE M. to the doctor's office on the other side of town. I left him there and went to visit STEVE (Orthodox Jewish non-believer) who owns a store not too far from Mike's doctor's office. I haven't seen Steve in a couple of years, but he was very happy to see me and thanked me for all the postcards! He said his kids fight over them and he now makes them take turns on who gets to keep the newest one! The whole time I talked with Steve, he kept staring at my "Jesus Loves You" t-shirt! Pray for open eyes!
PRE-PASSOVER POT FAITH PARTY OUTREACH - We had some 30 PEOPLE come to our party including nine Jewish non-believers. It was an informal party and the older Jewish people were most touched by the invite. It was a great time of relationship building. Over 100 other Jewish people were invited. Please pray they were still touched and come to our future events, especially the TUESDAY NIGHT FELLOWSHIPS.
OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES - Todd and I went to Carvel. There were two obviously Jewish WOMEN and several CHILDREN wearing EPSTEIN SCHOOL (local Jewish day school) shirts. A 10 year old boy asked (in front of the women and others), "Why do you have "Jesus" with the Jewish star?" I answered, "Because, Jesus is our Jewish Messiah!" He said, "Oh, I didn't know that?" I said, "Well, now you do!"
TASTE OF MARIETTA - We had a booth at the "Taste of Marietta". We had the Israeli flag flying, gave out Gospel materials and about 400 "Jesus Loves You" t-shirts! PEOPLE (Jew and Gentile) walked up to us all day and we were able to share many times! A big thanks to BRUCE and LINDA for helping staff the booth!
JESUS LOVES YOU T-SHIRTS - STEVE (Jewish believer) just took 200 Spanish "Jesus Loves You" t-shirts to equip believers in Mexico! To the best of my record keeping, we have equipped over 10,000 believers with English, Spanish and Russian "Jesus Loves You" t-shirts in all 50 states and 45 foreign countries worldwide!
GOD ANSWERS PRAYER - Several years ago I was told a Jewish woman worked at my church as an assistant teacher for the Mother's Morning Out Program. I asked if I could meet this woman, but was told she was not open and it wouldn't be a good idea? I prayed for this woman and an opportunity to share with her. One night MARLENE (Jewish believer widow) asked me to go to dinner with her and INA (Jewish non-believer widow) who I have been ministering to lately. I ended up driving them since Ina lives around the corner. After dropping off Marlene, I drove Ina home and she invited me to her synagogue for a Shabbat service. I've been to Ina's synagogue several times and feel comfortable there and mentioned to Ina she seemed to feel comfortable at my church while she was there a few weeks ago. Ina told me she used to live near the church and voted there all the time as well as work in the Mother's Morning Out Program! You could have knocked me over with a feather!
1. To teach the body of Yeshua (believers) that we are grafted into Israel, not the other way around, as shown in Ephesians 3:6, Ephesians 5:23 and 1 Corinthians 12:27.
2. To show that all of G-D's (YHVH) commandments are for all of Israel.
3. To show that Yeshua (Jesus) said that I and the father are one. If you love me you will keep my commandments.
4. To show that all scripture is to teach us how to walk with the Lord.
5. To show that Yeshua and Paul kept and taught the Torah.
6. To teach the customs, idioms, pattern and pictures that the scriptures use to teach of the Messiah.
7. To show that Yeshua is YHVH incarnate.
2. That YHVH is one. (That He manifests Himself as the Father, Son and Spirit).
3. That Jesus (Yeshua) was born of the virgin by the Holy Spirit.
4. That He died was buried and arose on the third day.
6. That He will Rule from Jerusalem for 1000 years.
7. That He will teach the Torah Himself and we will celebrate His Feast and Festivals.
In the very beginning of the scripture we see Yeshua (Jesus) on the cross, by the meaning of the Hebrew letter Aleph meaning God and Tav meaning Cross. As you see in the picture above in the red box the letters not translated in our English Bible. "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. (Revelation 1:10)" "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1)"
You may have seen the news about the flooding in North Central Illinois last December. If not, I would like to let you know about one of the several SBC churches that was devastated by these floods. Watseka Baptist Church is in the center of the flood area of Iroquois County, IL. The water damaged the foundation and building beyond repair. The floor of the church building sits about three feet above ground level and the water was up about three inches above the sanctuary floor. The basement of the church was flooded and the classroom was moved off the foundation.
Watseka Baptist Church is a small Southern Baptist Church that is working the good work of bringing the good news of Jesus Christ in the Three Rivers (Southern) Baptist Association. This church is very limited in resources and is made up of mostly senior citizens who have limited physical abilities. This area has been resistant to the Gospel for too many years. This church is working to lead the lost to the L-rd.
Watseka Baptist Church is a small congregation who have not been able to afford flood insurance. The members are devastated as their church has been damaged as well as some of their homes.
Watseka Baptist Church is the first Southern Baptist Church to license and ordain a Southern Baptist Messianic Fellowship member as Southern Baptist Minister and Messianic Rabbi. This local church was the first to use the SBMF Messianic Rabbinic Ordination Certificate.
Please pray for this small local church as they need to find property on high ground in the area that they serve and build a new building. Their church building has been condemned. They need the L-rd to supply as there are no funds available to accomplish this acquisition of property or build a building.
There are other churches in this area that have been damaged.

If you're getting a dark-colored dog, you must consider black dog names!Black dogs are beautiful creatures, with their shiny, luscious coats and soulful eyes that are even more pronounced against their dark fur.These names don't have to be literal. They can range from dark-colored foods to "black" in other languages to animals of the same color and more. The more subtle and sophisticated, the better, in our opinion.
Ash is a diminutive of Ashley. Ashley originates in Old English language and means "meadow of ash trees". It was derived from an Old English place name and surname. Initially, it was more popular as a masculine given name, popularized by the character of Ashley Wilkes in the novel and a subsequent film Gone With the Wind. In the second half of the 20th century it started being used more as a feminine given name, possibly popularized by the soap opera character of Ashley Abbott in the TV show The Young and The Restless.
