By Lenape WORD or PHRASE
The Lenape Talking Dictionary
Project History: In January, 2002, the Lenape Language Preservation Project received a three-year grant from the National Science Foundation to produce a resource dictionary database of Lenape. We then had a database built to create a Lenape Talking Dictionary. Much of the funding has gone to digitizing and preserving our existing audiotapes which were made with native speakers of Lenape.
We had originally planned to make the Talking Dictionary available on a CD, but the Internet is available to so many people and is basically free, so we decided that more people would benefit by making this available on the Internet. The Culture section of the Delaware tribal website is located at http://delawaretribe.org/culture-and-language/ and it also has a link to this Dictionary. This is a work-in-progress so come back often as more words and sound files are being added. The main website of the Delaware Tribe of Indians is found at: http://www.delawaretribe.org/tribalsite/.
Dialects of Lenape
The language used in the Lenape Talking Dictionary is what linguists call the "Southern Unami Dialect." See the map below which will show where this particular dialect was once spoken in the Lenape homeland. This is the dialect that was later used by both groups of Lenape (Delawares) in Oklahoma.
The Lenape Speakers in This Talking Dictionary
Around the year 1600 the Lenape language was spoken by thousands of people. Now, the remaining speakers who grew up with Lenape as their first language have all left this life. We can be grateful that some of our elders took the time to try to preserve the Lenape language for us. They did this by teaching classes, making recordings, working with younger tribal members and with linguists.
Below are photographs of two of the main speakers whose voices you will hear in the Lenape Talking Dictionary. The photo shows two of them visiting while at a Stomp Dance.
Lucy Parks Blalock
Nora Thompson Dean
Lucy began to teach Lenape classes at the Tribal headquarters in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, in 1992 under the auspices of the Delaware Tribal Culture Preservation Committee. These continued until May of 1994 when she was no longer able to teach, but the language work continued with some language committee members going to Lucy's home at Quapaw, Oklahoma. We would also like to express our thanks to Dr. David Oestreicher for sharing the recordings of the Lenape language he made with Nora and Lucy.
Lucy Blalock With Part of Her Language Class - 1993
Nora taught Lenape language classes at Nowata, Oklahoma, in the years 1979-80. Mrs. Dean also developed several cassette learning tapes and booklets called the Lenape Language Lessons in 1980. Over the years she also worked extensively with a number of linguists and anthropologists to try to preserve the Lenape language and culture. We would like to acknowledge Carrie Briggs, a student in Bruce Pearson's linguistics course, for sharing recordings she made with Nora.

Other Speakers of the Delaware Tribe
James H. Thompson
One elder who contributed to this dictionary is James H. Thompson, the father of Nora Thompson Dean and Leonard Thompson. James was born in Kansas near Kansas City, and as a baby moved with his family when the Delawares were forced to move to Indian Territory (later Oklahoma). He worked with several scholars such as Willard Rhodes and W. W Newcomb, Jr., to preserve some knowledge of his people's songs and customs. He worked with Jim Rementer on the language in the early 1960's.
Edward Leonard Thompson
Another elder who has contributed to this dictionary is Edward Leonard Thompson, the brother of Nora Thompson Dean. Leonard taught some language classes in 1985. He has also worked with a number of people on the language.
Willie Longbone
Willie worked with linguist Carl Voegelin in 1939 at the University of Michigan.
James C. Webber
James, more commonly known as Charlie, worked with anthropologist Frank Speck at the University of Pennsylvania in 1928.
Fred Fall-Leaf
Fred Fall-Leaf promoted efforts in the 1950s and 1960s to have events for the people who spoke the Lenape language to get together and have a chance to keep in practice with the language. Fred also worked with several linguists over the years. His father John Fall-Leaf also promoted the traditional ways by holding Stomp Dances.
Ollie Beaver Anderson
Ollie Beaver Anderson was a fluent speaker of Lenape, and was married to another Delaware named George 'Tom' Anderson. Ollie worked on the language during the 1960s mainly with linguist Ives Goddard, then a graduate sudent at Harvard. We would like to express our thanks to Dr. Goddard for sharing these recordings of the vocabulary work he made with Ollie.
Reuben Wilson
Reuben worked with anthropologist Frank Speck, and with linguist Bruce Pearson and also Jim Rementer in his efforts to preserve information about traditional Lenape language, songs and dances, as well as handmade items. As far as we know Reuben was the only Lenape to have been on a radio show singing Lenape songs, although at the time he was extremely hard-of-hearing due to an auto accident. Reuben was also the last living Lenape to have sung his vision song in the traditional Big House Church.
Freddie Washington
Over the years Freddie worked with a number of linguists and anthropologists, including Frank Speck, in attempts to preserve the Lenape language and culture. Freddie worked on the language during the 1960s with linguists Ives Goddard and Bruce Pearson, then graduate students working on their dissertations.
Annie Brown Parks
Annie worked on the language during the 1960s with linguists Ives Goddard and Bruce Pearson, then graduate students working on their dissertations.
Speakers of the Delaware Nation
Martha Ellis
Martha worked on the language during the 1960s with linguist Ives Goddard, then a graduate student working on his dissertation. She later worked with linguist Ralph Cooley of the University of Oklahoma.
Bessie Snake
Bessie is shown here being interviewed by Ray Elkhair, Jr. in 1985. Bessie worked on language preservation during the 1960s with linguist Ives Goddard. She later worked with linguist Ralph Cooley of the University of Oklahoma. Also with linguist Bruce Pearson, and several other scholars on various topics.
Willie Snake
Willie worked on language preservation with linguist Ralph Cooley of the University of Oklahoma. Also with linguist Bruce Pearson, and Duane Hale to help preserve the Lenape language.
Willard Thomas
Willard worked on language preservation with linguist Ralph Cooley of the University of Oklahoma. He also worked with Duane Hale to help preserve the Lenape language. In 1963 Willard represented his Delaware group as an invited guest to Sweden along with Jasper Hill and Cephas Snake of Moraviantown, Ontario.
Lillie Hoag Whitehorn
Lillie worked on language preservation with linguist Bruce Pearson, and also with Jim Rementer to help preserve the Lenape language and music. Lillie was half Caddo and was also fluent in the Caddo language.
Additional Language Project Personnel
Lenape Language Committee
Members of the Committee: Mike Pace, Jim Rementer, Mary Louise Watters, and Janifer Brown present a Lenape Language CD to former Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating.
Project Personnel: The people working on the project are Jim Rementer, Dr. Bruce Pearson, Jan Brown, Dr. Nicky Kay Michael, April Daniels, and Ray Whritenour who has done extensive work with Lenape language as written by Moravian Missionaries. Dr. Ives Goddard of the Smithsonian Institution serves as a consultant to the project.
Jim Rementer, project director, began his study of the Lenape or Delaware language in the summer of 1961. He returned the following summer and resumed his study with James H. Thompson, one of the oldest tribal members. After Mr. Thompson's death in 1964, Jim continued his study primarily with Nora Thompson Dean, daughter of James Thompson. Jim continued his studies with other speakers, and in 1997 the Delaware Tribe appointed him director of the Lenape Language Project. He recently discovered that his fifth great uncle, Nicholas Ramstein, was a captive of the Delaware Indians for fifteen months beginning in January 1756.
Note: In addition to the native speakers listed above, as project director I have added my pronunciation of words which lack sound files. I am doing so with the permission of the Delaware Tribe's Culture Preservation Committee. My pronunciation will be replaced if recordings of native speakers become available as we continue to work through our extensive recordings. - Jim Rementer.
Bruce L. Pearson, who had served as project co-director, began his work on Delaware with Nora Thompson Dean in 1968 while a graduate student at the University of California at Berkeley. He taught linguistics and phonetics at the University of South Carolina from 1972 through 2003 while continuing to work with Mrs. Dean and others in the last generation of native Delaware speakers. Now professor emeritus he has contributed his notes and recordings to help to analyze language materials for this and related projects.
Grant Leneaux, emeritus professor of German at the University of Nevada, received his Ph.D. from the University of Kansas. He taught German, Classical Greek and Latin, and French for 25 years in the department, and despite his supposed retirement, he continues to teach courses in German and the Classics. Grant is from the Lenape family whose original spelling was Lenno. Grant serves as a consultant to the Lenape Talking Dictionary by commenting on the Moravian missionary materials written in Lenape and German.
Raymond Whritenour is a student of the closely related Northern Unami dialect of Lenape. For over 32 years he has worked with the materials written by the Moravian missionaries about the language and culture. He is the editor, translator, and publisher of over 25 books of Lenape language in that closely related dialect.
Nicky Kay Michael, Ph.D., a Delaware Tribal member, has her degree from the University of Oklahoma. Nicky edits the CDs for content, removal of extraneous noise, and removing unnecessary conversation. Nicky was able to use the Lenape language for her foreign language requirement when she was working on her Master's Degree. When not working on the language project she trains for and has been in several triathlons. She also enjoys powwows and stomp dances.
Janifer Brown (1946 - 2015), a Delaware Tribal member, shown here with Lucy Blalock, worked on timing and listing content of the audiotapes, and editing the CDs for content. Jan prepared herself for this specialized work by taking a special workshop in linguistics conducted by Dr. Akira Yamamoto of the University of Kansas. Jan was also a member of the Lenape Language Committee and the Culture Preservation Committee, and was an active participant in the tribal social dances. Jan was also the senior author of the Conversational Lenape Mini-Dictionary, a pocket-size dictionary available through the tribal gift shop.
David M. Oestreicher, Ph.D. worked on the Lenape language and culture beginning when he was 17 years old. For seven years until her passing he worked principally with Nora Thompson Dean, then with Lucy Blalock, and over the next four decades with all of the remaining Lenape speakers in Oklahoma and Canada. His notes and recordings are a major repository of the language and culture. Over the years David has worked with the Lenape on projects to help them preserve their heritage. In 2009 at the Ellis Island Immigration Museum, with the help of the Lenape he curated Lenape: Ellis Island's First Inhabitants - the first major exhibition in New York City to tell the story of the Lenape from earliest times until today. David is happy to share his recordings with the Lenape Talking Dictionary Project and to help the dream the Lenape elders had of keeping alive their language and culture.
April R. (Vinyard) Daniels, a Delaware Tribal member, used her services and expertise to keep the tribal website up to date. April's great-great grandmother enrolled her family in the early 1900's. Her family, who live and work primarily in Vinita, have maintained close ties with their Delaware heritage, including maintaining their original land allotments in the Vinita area. April lives in Austin, Texas with her husband and son, but even though they are so far away from Bartlesville, April wants to maintain connection with her tribe.

The Fun Starts at the ROCK
Rockcastle Shooting Center proudly announces the 4th Annual Firearms Industry Team Challenge and Firearms Industry Choice Awards to be held at their world-renowned Rockcastle Resort in Park City, KY from June 13-15, 2019. Shooting industry executives and professionals are invited to participate in the three-day match culminating with the Firearms Industry Choice Awards and banquet at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky.
According to Rockcastle CEO, Nick Noble, "This is a truly great opportunity for industry folks to gather, relax and enjoy the camaraderie of our industry in a place that offers shooting enthusiasts of every skill level exciting and memorable experiences.
Product-Excellence
Recognizing innovation and creativity in new product development by exceptional companies in our industry is important too, said Nick Noble, Co-Founder of the Rockcastle Shooting Center. "There was such a positive response toward companies and products that were nominees and winners at the Shooting Industry Masters events we hosted here at Rockcastle Shooting Center in 2011 and 2012, that we knew we had to carry on," he said. "The thoroughness and dedication exhibited through the award process set a gold standard we wish to continue on behalf of the myriad of world-class companies in the shooting, hunting and outdoor industry. So we established the Firearms Industry Choice Awards to reward innovation, and to offer continued acknowledgement of the best of the best."
"Sharing that kind of recognition with a broader audience is an important step in growing our industry," says Recoil magazine Editor, Iain Harrison. "With the marketplace in a constant state of change, the Firearms Industry Choice Awards offer us a great opportunity to see first-hand what consumers are likely to be really excited about and why. Combining the Industry Choice Awards with the Industry Team Challenge is the perfect way for us to participate, promote and enhance the shooting sports and industry we're all a part of," he said.
Manufacturers are encouraged to submit what they consider to be their finest product, to be evaluated for fit, form, finish and functionality. The evaluation process will determine winners through a hands-on, unbiased, multi-day testing and evaluation phase, performed by some of the most influential people in the business, the consumer. Product categories include rifle, handgun, shotgun, optic, accessory, and ammunition of the year. Evaluators consist of a balanced mix of firearm retailers, distributors, professional shooters, gun smiths, law enforcement and military personnel, members of the outdoor media, and recreational shooters. Oneida Molded Plastics has dedicated to sponsor and lead the team of hand selected delegates from the firearms community for the prestigious, unbiased, selection of the Products of the Year awards. Each submitting company will be provided the audited confidential evaluation results of their product after the winners are announced on June 9th.
A welcome reception for all of the participants will be held at the National Corvette Museum and on the last evening, attendees will celebrate the winners of the Firearms Industry Challenge and the Firearms Industry Choice Awards at a special banquet to be held at the Sloan Convention Center Bowling Green, Ky. "We're really looking forward to honoring the winners as well as all of the attendees with entertainment, food and fun in this one-of-a-kind venue filled with true Americana.
"Throughout the weekend, various optional raffles, auctions and fundraising activities will abound," says Noble. "Raising funds for Future generation shooters, U.S. Veteran groups and wounded warriors … The focus of Firearms Industry Team Challenge is for an outlet of the industry to enjoy the opportunities with the products and markets we serve. Whereas fund raising is a major part of who we prove to be as an industry, all side fundraising events are optional and designed for as much fun as you choose.
"This event represents a new way to answer the age old question of which industry manufacturer produces the best products, and who has the best team of marksmen and women." We look forward to welcoming everyone in the industry to participate in some fun shooting events, fantastic awards ceremonies, bask in our southern hospitality, and enjoy our beautiful resort," Noble said.

Trollebokungen är en svensk film regisserad av Gustaf Edgren från 1924.

Handling
Efter en marknad hetsas Ante av sin hustru att rånmörda en hästhandlare med gott av kontanter på sig. Efter mordet flyr paret till Norrland, Ante byter namn till Måns och blir bonde. Han skaffar sig stora ägor och får sin hustru att gå med på att han gifter sig med storbondens dotter för att de båda ska kunna få hans förmögenhet.

De båda gifter sig och får snart en son. Den första hustrun blir svartsjuk och försöker dränka barnet, men Måns kommer till undsättning i sista stund. Efter detta är samförståndet mellan dem slut, han kör iväg henne, men ordnar ändå arbete åt henne i fattighuset.

När storbonden dör tar Måns över den titeln. Sonen växer upp och förälskar sig i mjölnarens dotter. Detta retar Måns eftersom mjölnaren inte vill sälja kvarnen till honom. Han söker då upp sin första hustru och betalar henne för att bränna ner kvarnen. Sonen är nära att bli innebränd, Måns rusar in och räddar honom, men blir själv dödligt skadad. Innan han dör ger han sonen och mjölnardottern sig välsignelse.

The combination of my post on truth yesterday and Chris Locke's EGR post on black holes, depression and the breath of jaguars got me thinking.
My sense of happiness is so linked in with my inherited sense of good and bad. I have so many wonderful things in my life, my wife, my kids, where I live, where I work, my health, my skills...and on and on....and yet, if I feel I have been bad, I can obsess about what is wrong in my life. I filter out anything positive and home in on the negative like a heat seeking missile.
I have read dozens of books on how to be different and do try at an intellectual level. But deep down, at a soul level, there are still the same old scripts running..... good - bad, success - failure, all or nothing.


Why is Apple revising its developer policies so that users can no longer mine for virtual wealth?
For those that are not up to scratch with cryptocurrency , it is a digital currency that uses encryption techniques to regulate the generation of units and verify transferring funds. They do not have a central bank or nation of origin. Algorithmically complex puzzles can be solved using computing power to add currency to the pool available for purchase and as an award, the user is given some of the currency. This concept is known as "mining".
The issue that Apple has found is not with mining itself, but with the news that apps like "Calendar 2" were mining for cryptocurrency in the background without the users consent. This creates issues as the mining process is often very complex so a lot of the memory that is needed by the user to perform their desired tasks is not available, leaving the phones other processes slower and causing high electricity usage.
Apple have not banned mining altogether however. Apps can still create interfaces to mining projects so for those who would like to continue mining, hope is not lost, they simply want to stop people using the hardware of the devices to mine. The issue with some of the apps that have cropped up is that they were not making it apparent to the user that mining is going on in the background. This opens up the wider question on if more checks should be put in place to look for background processes in apps and if developers should require more verification before their software can be available to the public.
Apple's policies now say that "apps may not mine for crypto currencies unless the processing is performed off device (e.g. cloud-based mining)" but the extent of currency farming in the app store is unknown. Remember to always check software before installing it and to keep virus protection up to date with our managed services.

Q: read statement help in bash to validate any key pressed when I use read statement in shell
read -n 1 -s -t 5 -p "Starting the script in 5 seconds. Press any key to stop!" yn

How to check if any key is pressed or not , if a key is pressed then the script must exit otherwise , the script must continue ?

A: You can use loop and limit read's time by one second:
#!/bin/bash
shouldStop=0
for (( i=5; i>0; i--)); do
    printf "\rStarting script in $i seconds. Press any key to stop!"
    read -s -n 1 -t 1 key
    if [ $? -eq 0 ]
    then
        shouldStop=1
    fi
done

if [ $shouldStop==1 ]
then
    printf "do not run script"
else
    printf "run script"
fi

A: Simply:
read -n 1 -s -t 5 -p "Starting the script in 5 seconds. Press any key to stop!" && \
    exit 1

When a key is read, read returns 0 which would allow && to process the next statement exit 1. This would end your script.
You don't have to specify a variable as well so you wouldn't need it. read uses default variable $REPLY.

In the face of such hyperbole, it is always debatable whether to respond or not. In some sense a response legitimizes what it should not. I was going to write a long article about real economics, about supply and demand and about how in a free market, like it or not, people get to choose what they want and what works for them even if IT doesn't like it (as IT didn't like spreadsheets). But I don't need to. Paul Graham's Hackers and Painters says it all, far better than I could ever hope to. The eponymous chapter alone, Hackers and Painters, is worth the read, but Paul's intense desire to build a programming language for humans is what makes the book for me (even though I don't really agree with his solution being a sort of PHP fan myself). I read a fair amount (son of a librarian, it sticks), and of the books I've read this year, this one will stick with me long after many others have faded. The book resonates with all the reasonableness and pragmatism and deep understanding of the human condition and of economics that is absent in the quoted paragraph above.
Mr Dubray, if you read nothing else, read Paul's chapter on the other road ahead. It says what I said in my post in this blog on Evolution in Action, but Paul says it so much more eloquently and completely. It should help you to understand that the problem IT faces isn't sloppy languages. It is irrelevance. For much (although certainly not all) of the work IT does, IT is like children building sand castles on the beach and watching the tide roll in. That tide is highly customizable web based solutions, Salesforce.com today, perhaps Talaris tomorrow. Ask the average Salesforce.com customer (meaning a salesrep) if he is happier with the solution he has now or the one he had back when IT was building a customer CRM for him. I think the answer will surprise you. Web Services have helped immensely here because it has made possible the integration of these solutions with internal logic for those things IT should still be working on. This is the promise and the future in my opinion.

To understand the nature of English spelling today you need to probe beneath the surface. For a start there is the English language itself.
In some respects this resembles a building, with an Anglo-Saxon foundation, a superstructure that in many respects is Norman-French, and fixtures and fittings acquired from all over the world, in particular from the classical Latin and Greek.
Its literary achievements are well known but today it is also a world lingua franca, owing in part to the simplicity of its grammar but also to the British colonisation and the spread of US political and economic power.
The History of English Spelling examines development of English spelling over the centuries and explores how modern spelling has derived from a number of different influences and factors.
Irregularities looks in depth at the underlying rules of English spelling and explains how they are broken with such frequency.
Economic and Social Costs of English Spelling looks at the consequences of such an irregular spelling for the individual and society in terms of the extra time that children of the English Speaking World need to learn to read and write compared with other children and the impact on those who never manage to memorise all the spellings that are needed for everyday use.


Database programming falls into three categories: maintenance, data processing and programming. The programming portion is the creation of bespoke database for an application that allows for the application to interact with it. The bulk of work for a database programmer however, is the maintenance. Troubleshooting issues, recovering data and providing technical support provide a continuous employment for database professionals.
Processing the data is the importing, organizing and translating of data into the database. The programmer will write scripts to this effect, and perform daily checks on the database. This provides feedback in terms of any maintenance that is required.

This women lead co-op introduces the "Queen's Coffee" which brings flavors of cocoa, accents of sage and thyme, with a cedar aftertaste. Ketiara has become one of most recognized coffee suppliers to almost all viable coffee traders in Medan, the capital of North Sumatra, Indonesia. Perhaps, Ketiara is the only women-lead cooperative in coffee trading in Indonesia. Ketiara began 20 years ago, where chairwomen Mrs. Rahmah, was purchasing cherries, processing it into green, and selling to local traders. In late 2008, she organized farmers to form a cooperative that is now made up of nearly two thousand small shareholders. Now, Ketiara has become one of best known coffee suppliers to almost all coffee traders in Medan, Indonesia and holds it's Fair Trade and Organic Certifications. The farmers of Ketiara produce Caturra, Typica, Bourbon, and Catimor varieties using the traditional wet-hulled process of Indonesia, which means that the protective "parchment" is stripped at virtually the same time as the fruit and the still-wet beans are laid out on patios to dry out. They turn a dark green and take on "earthy" flavor notes. The coffee is then fermented, washed and carefully dried before the shell is removed.

Canada ambassador says he feels slighted by "Argo"
TORONTO - Canada's former ambassador in Iran, who protected Americans at great personal risk during the Iran hostage crisis of 1979, says if "Argo" wins the Oscar for best picture on Sunday there would be something wrong with director Ben Affleck if he didn't mention Canada.
Ken Taylor said Friday he continues to feel slighted by a movie that he says makes Canada look like a meek observer to CIA heroics in the rescue of six U.S. citizens caught in the crisis. He says there would be no movie if the Canadian embassy didn't take in the Americans.
Taylor says if Affleck doesn't say something in his acceptance speech "then it's a further reflection" on him.
Affleck's CIA thriller "Argo" is widely expected to take home the best-picture trophy on Sunday.

PARIS (Bloomberg) -- PSA Peugeot Citroen called on Molex Inc. to resume severance payments to fired French employees and Renault SA vowed to review its ties with the U.S. supplier after France's government demanded a boycott over a labor dispute.
France has asked the two carmakers to "cease all business" with Molex after the component maker stopped funding agreed payments to 283 workers who lost their jobs when it closed a plant in the country last year, Industry Minister Christian Estrosi said today.
Molex makes electrical parts for vehicle-cabling specialists, which in turn supply carmakers including Paris-based Peugeot, Europe's second-biggest auto manufacturer after Volkswagen AG, and smaller domestic rival Renault. The suburban Chicago company halted the payments this month after 188 of the closed French plant's workers asked a labor tribunal to award them more money.
Dufour and Caroline De Gezelle, a spokeswoman at Renault, both declined to comment on the value of Molex parts purchased annually from the French carmakers' front-line suppliers.
Estrosi's intervention came a day after Molex posted fiscal first-quarter net income of $75.1 million, compared with a $15.1 million loss a year earlier, and raised its dividend 15 percent to 17.5 cents per share.
The minister called Molex's decision to end the payments "unacceptable and scandalous," and said the government will force the U.S. company to "explain itself before the French courts," Agence France-Presse reported today from a briefing after a cabinet meeting.
Molex had paid out about 50 million euros ($69 million), or 90 percent of its liabilities under the 2009 settlement, when it discovered that former employees were disputing the plan's validity in court, Rodriguez said.

Are You Serious About Ministry at Your Radio Ministry?
Faron Dice
in: Leadership, Personal Growth, Radio
Flashback to 1986! I attended Evangel University. I was a grown-up preacher's kid and I had found my calling because I definitely did not want to be a preacher. I wanted to be a DJ! Woo Hoo! I was working on the campus station and at that point I knew I wanted to be a Christian radio DJ! I wanted to play Petra, Whiteheart, Rez Band, and all of my favorites. I wanted to do ministry. But again, I really just wanted to be a DJ.
What a ride it has been!
Over the past 35 years, I have been blessed to be involved in Christian music (CCM) radio. I have talked about my faith on the radio. I have met people at concerts and listened to amazing stories about how the station and the music have impacted them. Sound familiar?
When I started with WayFM in 2002, I thought I had hit the jackpot. I was now working for a CCM network that was growing, and impacting lives all over the country. Later, when I became a part of the WayFM leadership team, we were so excited because we were ministering to so many!
Uh, but wait a second…
In 2016, our leadership stumbled onto something. Our prayer wall on our website was literally getting hundreds of prayer requests, and some of them were not even being prayed for!
We were deeply convicted.
We were running promos and inviting people to visit the prayer wall, but errr, uh, nothing was really going on over there. We were too busy doing our radio things. We had to ask ourselves… are we serious about ministry?
In Jan 2017, we hired our first Prayer Pastor at WayFM and it was not an easy decision. We really didn't have the budget to do it. We had lots of other needs, like a new transmitter, repairs were needed on our station vehicles, etc. But we made an important decision to take our role as a ministry more seriously.
On his first day on the job, Pastor Dave (Our new Prayer Pastor) came into my office and showed me a prayer request that he had just received….
Dear Wally and WayFM,
I had an affair on my wife over the weekend with her best friend. Please pray for me.
I was blown away. This listener just spilled his guts to a radio station. Who would do this? And why? Because, we were his ministry. He needed more than just the radio signal, more than just a fun-loving DJ. He needed prayer. So, we prayed for him. Pastor Dave wrote to him…And we ministered to him.
And that was just the beginning. In the first year, we counted 10,000 prayer requests, the next year it was 20,000, the next year even more. We are still growing! And we are committed to praying for every single request. We are as serious about our behind-the-scenes ministry as we are about promotions, DJs, and other radio things.
We are not the church. We point people to church. But we are a ministry.
By the way, check out this article from Bethany Bravery at the CMB website, asking "Would You Be Willing To Wash Your Listener's Feet?" She gets it!
What about you? Are there things you can do to increase your ministry in 2021?
2 Timothy 4:5 says this, But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. Don't be afraid of suffering for the Lord. Work at telling others the Good News, and fully carry out the ministry God has given you.
I've recently moved into a new role as VP of Ministry at WayFM. I'd love to chat with you more about this. Let's learn together. fdice@waynation.com
VP of Ministry, WayFM
fdice@waynation.com
Faron Dice has worked for WayFM for the past 18 years and in CCM Radio for the past 35. He loves Jesus, his family, and still wonders why his band Timothy never made it big in the 80s.

The study of regulatory mechanism of stomatal movement in plant stress response is carried out in Professor Xin Liu's group. This project won the third prize of Provincial Award for Natural Science 2014. Figure Legend: Under the osmotic stress conditions, the formation of ethylene plays as the first messenger in plant, then across the cell membrane to be the second messenger for transferring signals. H2O2 produced by polyamine oxidase (PAO) is transferred to NO molecule which is generated by the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) pathway. Then H2S produced by L-/D- cysteine desulfhydrase (CDes) was activated and passed to the calcium signal finally. This signaling cascade can regulate the activity of potassium ion channel, thereby inducing stomatal closure.

MAP30: Icon of Sin is the thirtieth and final map of Doom II. It was designed by Sandy Petersen and uses the music track "Opening To Hell".
After completing MAP30, the cast of game characters is shown.
Pick up the weapons and powerups and go through the teleporter. You will arrive at the lowest one on a series of large step-like platforms. The Icon of Sin will make its unholy introductory speech and then immediately begin spawning monsters endlessly. It can spawn any monster in the game, with the exceptions of the bosses (the cyberdemon and the spiderdemon) and the different kinds of former humans, who are not demonic in nature. Each step in the simple construction is an elevator which can be activated by pressing on the demonic face on its side. Be ready to defeat or bypass the first monsters created by the boss and be careful with the incoming cubes as they may telefrag you, independent of whether or not you are invincible by means of the God mode or invulnerable by means of the invulnerability artifact. Get to the top step and use the demonic switch found there. A small platform in the slime pool at the bottom of the steps will rise up.
Before heading up, if you are playing the level using the Ultra-Violence or Nightmare! difficulty, kill the revenant - it may disrupt your rocket attacks. When the pillar-like platform in the slime has stopped rising, press on its side. The square pillar will lower to the floor as an elevator. Stand on the pillar and select the rocket launcher. Turn to face the huge cybernetic face of the boss on the wall over the platform across the series of steps. The platform will rise. Slightly before the elevator reaches the top, launch a rocket towards the demon's exposed brain. If timed correctly, the rocket will enter the opening exposing the brain and an echoing low-pitched pain sound will be heard. It takes practice to time correctly, although one can say that firing as the tip of the rocket launcher reaches the gigantic demon's chin is reliable. Three direct hits are generally necessary to defeat the boss. When defeated, explosions occur in front of its hideous visage and the game exits to the intermission screen.
Advanced techniques to destroy the boss quickly include running down to the rising pillar from the switch atop the huge steps, lowering the pillar from the edge once it has reached the top to fire again and firing while jumping off the pillar, possibly towards the platform below the face to acquire some powerups.
Dodging the horde of monsters spawned by the boss is a challenge, and often one must lure a group of monsters away from the platform before jumping on it again or kill them with the BFG or another high-powered weapon. Arch-viles, pain elementals, arachnotrons, and revenants are particularly disruptive as their advanced attack modes can easily hinder or damage the vulnerable player atop the pillar. Pain elementals and arch-viles should be focused on if the player takes on the horde, as the pain elemental's ability to spawn lost souls endlessly and the arch-vile's ability to resurrect slain demons are even more dangerous than usual when combined with the endless stream of demons created by the Icon of Sin.
Two radiation suits are located on the platform directly below the evil visage. They are a convenience against the damaging slime at the foot of the pillar, although lower skill levels (1 and 2) provide four invulnerability powerups around it to ease the task for novices. Monster infighting and some monster telefragging will occur and help to limit how dense the horde becomes.
Using the idclip cheat code to pass into the head of the final boss reveals the violently severed head of John Romero, impaled on a spike. The place is unreachable by normal means and does not register as a secret but can be considered an Easter egg. Shooting the head also ends the level. As a side note to the Romero-on-a-stick joke, when the player enters the main battlefield, he/she is greeted with an arcane chant spelled by the boss. When played backwards, it is actually Romero's distorted voice saying "To win the game you must kill me, John Romero".
There is a single inaccessible linedef outside the map on the eastern side. The line is a part of an unclosed sector.
The linedefs that make up the right side (its right) of the Icon of Sin's face are 264 map units long. However, the textures are only 256 pixels wide, which causes all three of them to repeat eight map units across from the center of the face. The most noticeable effect is that the right horn is separated from the Icon's head. The linedefs which represent the left side of the face are 256 map units long and thus do not exhibit the error.
The textures used for the middle of the face feature a dark brown background behind the face, whereas the textures used for the horns feature a black background. They can be seen to clash under the left horn.
If the level is played on Nightmare! difficulty or with the -respawn parameter set, respawning monsters may telefrag the player if they respawn at the player's exact coordinate at any height of his vertical column.
If the player remains in the level for a long period of time after being detected by the spawn shooter, the level will fill up with monsters. If many monsters populate the level, it can cause a crash due to the nature of the Icon of Sin that endlessly fires its spawn shooter cubes that turn into monsters when reaching any given surface. The possible crash occurs when the number of living monsters exceeds the limitations.
Savegames have specific problems in the level. If the player saves a game after having woken up the final boss, quits the program and then returns to load the savegame, a Venetian blind crash will occur. A detailed explanation can be read here.
The spawn shooter in the level is placed facing directly east. East corresponds to zero angle in Doom coordinates, so the level designer probably forgot to give the spawner's thing proper orientation. It does not hinder the spawner's ability to shoot cubes, as they simply fly straight to their preset target spots. Also, it still wakes up normally as soon as the player teleports into the final area, since the player's teleport destination lies within its 180-degree field of view. However, it will not notice the player if he enters the cavern from the western side of the map using the no clipping cheat.
Originally, Compet-n had a "maximum kills" challenge for the level different from UV max, in which the objective was to get the highest percentage of kills one could. However, in l30-1840.lmp, recorded on July 9, 1996, Kai-Uwe Humpert demonstrated that if you wake up the monster spawner as soon as you teleport into the boss' room, stay on the platform you teleport on and stand near either one of the southernmost corners of the next highest platform all without firing a shot, you will be out of the sight of every one of the monsters created and they will never wake up. From there, you can wait while the monsters telefrag each other to get as many kills as you want, potentially by leaving your computer on overnight, and then finish the level after that. Because of the discovery, the "maximum kills" challenge was discontinued the day of the demo's release.
The Tyson category for the level was once thought impossible due to the difficulty of reaching the final boss with any close range weapon. However, since the method of using an arch-vile jump to land on the face of the final boss and attacking the final boss with a hitscan weapon was discovered, an unassisted demo was made by Looper using the trick to kill the final boss with a pistol.
* The vertex count without the effect of node building is 76.
A par time of 3:00 is defined in the source code (g_game.c), but never actually displayed. Some source ports do generate intermission screens for the original boss levels which include their par times.

Eileen Scoggin
From Richland, WA | Born in Big Springs, NE
Eileen Burke Scoggin was born to Margaret Maier Burke on January 15, 1916, on a farm in Duel County, Nebraska. "Maggie" and Tom Burke's eighth child, Eileen never knew her father; he was struck by lightning on April 15, 1915, as he and Maggie were hauling water to the livestock. Maggie worked hard to keep the family together, moving to nearby Julesburg, Colorado, where she cooked in restaurants and operated a boarding house. Eileen went to school in Julesburg and was salutatorian of the class of 1934. A friend was valedictorian, which Eileen said she could have been, but she "had more fun." Fun meant dancing. That was the height of the Big Band era and Julesburg's unusual round dancehall hosted most of the big bands of the day. The Charleston was one of the popular dances of the time, and Eileen could demonstrate a mean Charleston years later!
Eileen married the late James William Scoggin in 1934 right after graduation. In those depression days jobs were 'scarce as hen's teeth' in the rural parlance of the time, so when Jim--an outstanding baseball player--was offered a job in a Sinclair oil refinery (conditioned on his playing on the company baseball team) the young couple moved to Parco (now Sinclair), Wyoming. Five years later with the outbreak of WWII, the family moved to the northwest where Jim, now a journeyman welder and draft deferred defense worker living in Yakima, was employed in 1943 on the construction of B-Reactor. Other defense work involved more moving, next to California. At war's end it was back to Julesburg. In 1948 with the heating up of the Cold War the family returned, living in Richland. In 1950 Eileen went to work with General Electric. She read 'pencils' in Radiological Sciences, was a requisition clerk in the technical library, worked in 700 Area Catalog Files, and in Irradiation Processing Testing Operations. She had two 'firsts' in her career: she was the first woman employee to work in 105-DR and she was the first woman Metal Accountability Clerk of the Irradiation Processing Department. In the early 1970's Hanford's mission began to change and terminations were threatening many workers. When the job of a young male worker with a family was threatened, Eileen, whose job was secure by seniority, took a voluntary ROF (reduction of force), so her colleague could remain employed. Times were different.
With retirement, Eileen became very active in the Richland Alliance Church. A deaconess at one time, she was a member of the Women's Missionary Group and helped lead a Bible Study Fellowship class. She also enjoyed the Pioneer Girls that she worked with, and remained in touch with some as they became women with daughters of their own. Always a dog lover, Eileen and Red, who gifted himself to her just as Jim died, were fixtures in the neighborhood as they kept each other active with daily walks. Eileen also made essential friendships in the church and in her neighborhood that endure to this day. As she aged and grew more and more infirm she often commented how blessed she was with friends and neighbors who helped her with so many aspects of her life. The generosity and care of so many of her acquaintances reflects in part just how enjoyable a personality she was. She was caring, interested in others and sympathetic to their needs and cares. And she had a fine sense of humor and liked to laugh. When son Garry finally finished his studies and got off the family dole, Jim and Eileen were able to purchase their own home! Jim was particularly pleased to have the little house on View Drive above the Yakima River. He asked Eileen, "Do you think maybe we should name it?" Eileen said, "Well, we could call it 'Scoggin's middle-aged spread.' Jim didn't mention the subject again, but that is how Eileen and Garry always referred to the homestead.
Eileen is survived by her son Garry James Scoggin (Cynthia), Grandsons Gabriel David Scoggin (Kara) and Brendan Thomas Scoggin; and a Great Grandson, Maverick James Scoggin (Gabriel's and Kara's son), and nieces and nephews on both sides of her family.
The funeral service for Eileen will be held Thursday, June 21, 2018 at 11:00am at Einan's at Sunset Chapel, followed by her graveside service at Sunset Gardens in Richland.
In lieu of flowers please make donations to St. Judes Children's Research Hospital, the Union Gospel Mission in Pasco, or an animal shelter of your choice.

Home Actors & Actresses Meghan Ory – Biography and Personal Life, Movies and TV Shows
Meghan Ory – Biography and Personal Life, Movies and TV Shows
Meghan Ory is a talented and witty Canadian TV and film actress who is perhaps most popular for her role as Red Riding Hood on the ABC fantasy TV series, Once Upon a Time. Asides that, she also starred as in the CBS drama, Intelligence. Although now discontinued, she will be remembered for her perfect depiction of her character, Riley Neal. As of the time of this writing, she stars as Abby O'Brien in the Hallmark family drama Chesapeake Shores. More than her celebrity profile, Ory would perhaps appreciate being addressed as a lovely wife and adorable mother of one. Her incredible track record is worth a peep. So, let's give you that privilege. Ready?
Meghan Ory's Biography
Meghan Ory was born in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, on born August 20, 1982, to the family of Nathan E. Ory and Bonnie Ory. She and her brother, Jesse Ory spent the best part of their formative years in Victoria where Meghan attended Royal Oak Middle School and then proceeded to Claremont Secondary School. Although we're not privy to very personal details about her childhood or what they did for a living, we know that she excelled so well in her extracurricular activities like acting—back in school—so much so that she even bagged a Fine Arts Award for Acting from Royal Oak in 1996.
Spurred by the prestigious recognition, Ory then pursued a career in acting and haven't looked back ever since. Following her graduation from secondary school, she then proceeded to college where she acquired a degree in fine arts; after which she went to Hollywood and began some real work.
Career-wise, Meghan Ory got her head start with a role in the 1999 Fox Family Channel TV film, The Darklings; starring alongside Suzanne Somers and Timothy Busfield. She then landed a guest appearance on the TV series The Crow: Stairway to Heaven. However, her big break came in 2000 with a regular TV role on the Fox Family TV series, Higher Ground. The following year, 2001, she was cast in the Canadian TV series Vampire High.
In 2003, Ory made another appearance in the TV films, Lucky 7 and National Lampoon's Thanksgiving Family Reunion, as well as the 2004 releases; Life As We Know It, Smallville, The Collector, and Family Reunion. In the same year, Meghan Ory made another first when she appeared in the feature film, Decoys. Although she's worked with Decoy's director, Matthew Hastings, on Higher Ground and Vampire High, this was an entirely new experience for the ace actress. And she nailed it. Only two years later, she would play the main role, Maggie, in the UPN series South Beach, and Brianna in the mini-series Merlin's Apprentice. That year, she also appeared as Jill in the feature film John Tucker Must Die and as Mellissa Brennan in Her Sister's Keeper.
The following year, 2007, Meghan Ory was cast as in the role, Kit, in Blonde and Blonder; in which she starred alongside the likes of Pamela Anderson and Denise Richards. 2008 saw the premiere of another TV series, Flash Gordon, where Ory appeared as Sarre (in the episode, Thicker Than Water). Although much watched in other series, perhaps Meghan Ory's biggest hit came in the fall of 2011 when she began appearing as Red Riding Hood on the ABC fantasy series Once Upon a Time. The series which ran up until 2016, gave Ory one of her greatest publicity.
Although she left at the tip end of the second season of the series, she'd become a household name in the TV space. According to sources, Ory left to pursue her new show Intelligence. And by March 2013, she has been cast as the female lead role, Riley Neil in the series. However, the show was canceled after the first season owing to poor ratings. Ory later returned to make guest appearances in four and three episodes in the third and fifth seasons of Once Upon a Time, respectively.
In 2016, Meghan Ory began appearing in the TV series, Chesapeake Shores. Her character, Abby O'Brien, is a divorced career woman with two young daughters. So far, the series has aired twenty-nine episodes. Throughout her twenty-year career, Meghan Ory has appeared in over forty-two films and TV series.

Meghan Ory and her husband, John Reardon
Meghan Ory has been married to fellow Canadian actor, John Reardon, since 2008. We're not sure when they began dating, but from their work history, we believe their work together in the 2006 mini-series, Merlin's Apprentice, must've been the spark of their relationship. Together, the couple welcomed their first child in May of 2018. Talk about a long wait.

How The 'Blade Runner' Films Get Their Audience To Ask Questions
Posted on April 14, 2020 by deaconwarner
Ryan Gosling in Blade Runner 2049 in association with Columbia Pictures, domestic distribution by Warner Bros. Pictures and international distribution by Sony Pictures Releasing International.
How the Blade Runner Films Get Their Audience to Ask Questions
by Ben Dreblow
Minor Spoilers for both films
If you know me it is no secret that I adore the Blade Runner films; they have had a profound impact on the way I view film. One of the things the films opened my mind to was cinema's ability to cause its audience to ask questions. You cannot help but think about what it means to be human and how technology will impact society's progress when watching Blade Runner and its 2017 sequel. These points are so discussed that you would be hard pressed to find a review or discussion of the films that does not mention these existential questions. Which got me thinking about another question: how can a film get its audience to respond in such a way?
Certainly you could have characters ask the questions themselves, within the film. For example, they could say the line: "what does it mean to be human?" However, audiences and critics would likely cringe at such obvious storytelling. Besides, merely having characters ask the question within the film does not mean the film itself is asking the question. If you could insert that line into a stoner buddy comedy like Pineapple Express, would that suddenly mean that film as a whole is asking it? I would say no.
I believe it would be fitting to take a look at the Blade Runner films, and see how they achieve this response. I will be using the "what does it mean to be human" question that is often discussed in relation to these two films as the example question they are trying ask. Neither Blade Runner nor its sequel have moments like I described, where a character verbally asks the question the film is asking. So how do these films accomplish this effect?
Each of these films has a script that places the characters within a narrative where the subject of the question it wants to ask plays a central role within them. In Blade Runner, humans have created a race of androids that look and behave exactly like humans. Called "replicants," these androids are essentially used for slave labor. Some of these replicants are starting to violently revolt and the blade runners are tasked with retiring (killing) these rebellious creations. Blade Runner 2049 escalates the conflict between humanity and its likeness with the reveal that some replicants are capable of conceiving children. A key moment in the script for Blade Runner that helps ask this question is the famous "tears in the rain" monologue delivered by the late Rutger Hauer. The night before filming, Hauer cut many parts from the monologue as he felt the moment had been overwritten on the page. In this moment, Hauer's replicant character delivers a monologue describing the most striking experiences of his short life. Recalling life's greatest memories and the miracle of childbirth are all deeply human things for a mere replicant to experience.
However, film is a visual art form, and having this story on paper does not mean it will be communicated effectively on film, nor will Rutger Hauer's tremendous performance contribute much if it is not captured. Films need to use their visuals appropriately to ask their questions effectively. The Blade Runner films rely on their production design and lighting to ask the question visually. They do this through the design of the replicants. Think about how differently we would react to the replicants if they were not so similar to us in their design. What if the filmmakers behind Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 decided to give them translucent skin where one could see their mechanical internals, or if they put a glowing light on the side of their head? We would likely begin to feel as if they were less human than we are. Instead, they look nearly identical, save for a lighting trick used in the first film to add a very subtle glow in the eyes of the replicants. (Which are the window to the soul after all!)
This is where the question comes to a head. When we see the similarity between the humans and the replicants, in look and behavior, when we hear them share their fondest memories of their lives, we think, "what makes us different from them?" In order to answer that we need to ask what makes us human to begin with. In this way the Blade Runner films invite their audience into a thought experiment that is both beautiful and bleak. The answers you get will certainly depend on your own beliefs and worldview. Perhaps what makes us human means we are different from the replicants, perhaps not. Either way, the ability of a film to cause such existential contemplation is truly incredible and at times mystifying.
The ways in which films can ask questions cannot be contained in one essay, and certainly do not read these methods I describe as the only ones out there. Every film is different, and different questions can require different methods. I hope that this essay has been helpful to you, and opened your mind like the Blade Runner films opened mine, to the ways films can ask questions.
