ML: I hope that this case serves as an example of the benefits of engaging in the public process. Minister Iain Rankin, you have the utmost thanks of the St. Margaret's Bay community for acknowledging the significance of this area to our community and ecological systems that are in such need of preservation.
Obviously, there are flaws in the process and most would like to see the process improved, but let this be a call to action; differences can be made with enough persistence.
Although this assessment represents a great stride in the right direction, the fight to protect the Ingram River Wilderness Area is far from over. We will continue to need support from other organizations, the public, and politicians.
Emails and letter of support will always go a long way to show that you also want to see the Ingram River Wilderness Area designated. Please help support this reasonable request to protect 9 % of the St. Margaret's District.
The St. Margaret's Bay Stewardship Association (SMBSA) is thrilled about the announcement on Friday, January 11 of a Wilderness Assessment for the proposed Ingram River Wilderness Area (IRWA). The SMBSA extends its heartfelt thanks to Minister of Lands and Forestry, Iain Rankin, for taking the next steps in preserving the ecological and community values that are so important in the proposed Wilderness Area.
The SMBSA says the planned assessment shows that both the Department of Lands and Forestry and Nova Scotia Environment understand the tremendous potential of the proposed IRWA to support the provincial goals of land protection, and the area's role to support community values, such as hunting, hiking, Off-HWY-Vehicle use, canoeing, and kayaking.
Although this Wilderness Assessment is exactly what the area needs, and what the SMBSA has been requesting for many years, Horne adds that the Association is "deeply concerned that additional harvests are to take place even as the assessment is being conducted," adding, "It seems most appropriate that all harvests in the proposed Wilderness Area be deferred while the study is underway. Any forest harvests occurring during the study period will impact the findings and conclusions.
The designation of the IRWA will also bring the District closer to the recommendations of the Lahey Report. Currently, the St. Margaret's Bay District has only an 8 percent protection rate, while the Lahey Report calls for closer to 30 percent, using the triad approach to balanced land and forest management.
BW: This sounds promising. Kudos to all who have helped to bring about this assessment. I hope the results will be favourable and that a large part of the IRWA will receive long-lasting and effective protection. If any area was deserving of such, it is certainly wothy. In the meantime, yes, we should all take time to offer support for the IRWA in the hope that the area will achieve a protected status. Nice to see some good news for a change. Gives a glimmer of hope to those of us who care about the land.
RG: Certainly a great start, now let's see lots more.
JG: NICE!!! that is exciting!
DGP (nsforestnotes) Indeed, to be celebrated and giving credit where credit is due. I have no doubt Minister Rankin wanted to see this area protected; it's his back yard, he knows it and undoubtedly loves it well and it's important to the people he represents as an MLA. I simply hope that in his position as Minister of Lands and Forests and trying to keep everybody happy, it was not done now (as opposed to a little later) to throw the dog a bone. If it was, OK… but there are lots more dogs out there looking for a bone, and the number is growing. In the recent past (Hardwood Hill), the success of efforts to reverse the decision to harvest there, was welcomed, but heightened the interest of those involved in looking beyond their backyard, witness their prompt investigation of the Corbett-Dalhousie Lakes parcels. Ultimately we must deal with the difficult process of changing how the rest of the Crown Land is managed. The Lahey Report provided a path forward and we need to see that path followed ASAP. The directives that L&F issued in Sept would have begun the process except they were quickly retracted.
BW: Agreed, DGP. Corbett-Dalhousie Lake Forest is just one of those "bones" — and no, the people of Annapolis are not yet ready to fork it over just because some "term" on some licensee agreement seems to say that's just how things are. Uhm. Nope.
SS I am rather negative today as I keep seeing, We will transition over 1 year, we will transition over two years. Everything at the moment is not done today, should have been done yesterday but might be done in the future…/ I am glad that people are waking up, being aware, starting to look at things. I am glad that some things are being turned around but only because the PUBLIC is becoming AWARE. We must keep up the AWARENESS and pass it on and keep up this good feeling trend. Hopefully it starts to be contagious in a good way.
BW yo SS: — I so agree on all of those points. When we can stop feeling like the only way anyone is "giving an inch" is because they are worried about the sight of pitchforks waving above the crowd — then it will feel more like progress. Until then…well… we will just have to keep up with the public pressure.
It's not over until it's over, as they say.
Nick Horne, Chair of the St. Margaret's Bay Stewardship Association, has written a great letter that was published in the Masthead News, decrying the proposed harvests within the boundaries of the proposed Ingram River Wilderness Area.
The St. Margaret's Bay Stewardship Association is calling for a halt on harvests within the proposed Wilderness Area until a full Wilderness Assessment can be performed. These harvests will detract from that potential assessment.
For perspective, the proposed Ingram River Wilderness Area represents roughly 9% of the entire St. Margaret's District, leaving plenty of room for forestry to occur.
Nick Horne is with Iain Rankin.
Stewardship Association letter to the editor, Masthead News. Hopefully DLF will respond soon with a pause on cutting within this proposed wilderness area, so the Community and Government can assess and have a conversation about it's needed protection.

→What Does Goat Cheese Taste Like? And How Do I Use It Properly?
I love cheese. I could eat it all day and with everything. There are, though, some cheeses that may not be good for every occasion or that can seem too strong. This is the case with goat cheese.
Often, when I write recipes or see some online, I wonder what does goat cheese taste like? Can it blend well with these other ingredients? Is it going to please everyone?
These are all questions that are far more common than you may think and they actually make a lot of sense. Let's discuss what's the real deal with goat cheese, what does goat cheese taste like, when and how it can be used and more!
This is probably the most commonly sold goat cheese, and it has a stronger edge to its flavor. This cheese usually has a moist, fresh curd texture. It is also supposed to smell light and fresh, not sour.
The taste in this one is stronger as well, and it's also more complex. It may have a smell of ammonia, and though it may taste somewhat more stronger, it shouldn't taste sour either.
This cheese is very similar to a white cheddar, the taste is also alike and so is the texture. It is also a very long lasting cheese.
This cheese comes in a foil wrap and has a caramel color to it. The taste is very sweet, and a bit tangy, with a firm consistency.
This one is very similar to Parmesan cheese. The texture and flavor is as well, and it's mostly used for grating.
As you can see, just like with most cheeses, there is a large variety to choose from. It's important to know what you want in your cheese in order to purchase the right one. You don't want to end up with something that disrupts your meal or palette!
Before you buy into goat cheese, keep in mind the texture is key. Goat's milk is equally able to give as many textures as cow or sheep milk.
As I mentioned before goat cheese can be fresh (unripened) or ripened, and the taste changes according to how it was made.
Unripened goat cheese is soft and isn't always in a log shape. This cheese will develop a white and wrinkly cover as it ages with time.
Ripened goat cheese is firm and because it has been aged longer, taste is strong.
With these two choices in mind, now you should know that goat cheese is delicate. Like a good wine, once opened, it should be consumed almost immediately, so make sure you buy just enough.
It's also key to take a look at packaging. Avoid plastic wraps, as these invite mold. If you buy a vacuum-sealed cheese, make sure there's no excess liquid and the color is right.
As with cheeses like Ricotta cheese, storing your goat cheese is also essential for it to be flavorful and safe to eat.
Remember, avoid plastic wraps at all costs. Goat cheese needs to breathe, and storing in plastic will make it go bad almost immediately.
Vacuum-sealed cheese can last, when unopened, for at least two months. When you open it though, take it out of the package and store it in a plastic or glass container with a lid.
When you get a goat cheese that comes with a rind and didn't come wrapped in paper, wrap it first in wax paper, and then in plastic. Then immediately store it in the refrigerator.
No matter how good you store it, goat cheese should be enjoyed within a few days of being bought. If you think it is too sour or too strong, then it's probably not good anymore and you should toss it.
When you compare goat's milk to cow's milk, you'll find that it is lower in fat, cholesterol and calories. Goat cheese is also higher in calcium and has fewer carbohydrates.
This cheese is usually also easier to digest given their fat content. Because it doesn't have lactose, it can be tried when there is a lactose intolerance or milk-related allergy.
By now you have a good idea of what does goat cheese taste like, and how to pick it, and store it. It's time to find out when you should use goat cheese.
I have found that more often than not, there is some sort of goat cheese that goes well with most dishes. Remember that with any cheese, it is always crucial to have a good cheese slicer, otherwise, the cheese might be ruined.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss your potatoes with the rosemary and olive oil on a baking pan. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Roast potatoes for about 20-30 minutes, turn them halfway through.
When ready, remove from oven, and crumble goat cheese on top.
Broil them until your cheese is golden. Serve and enjoy!
Combine the goat cheese, pepper and lime juice until it becomes a smooth mixture.
Place a small scoop of the blend on top of each salmon slice. Fold into a log.
Once all logs are done, plate them and add chives on top. Enjoy!
I'm Ready to Try It Out!
Do you feel like by now you know what does goat cheese taste like? I hope so! Remember that taste varies depending on the kind of cheese, but it is usually tart and earthy. Some goat cheeses are softer and less strong, so maybe try these first.
Are you ready to try it out? Would you make these recipes? Tell me what you think on the comments below!
lol dummy u will nevar have kiddies.
I'm just kidding. God bless you both.

These Last Days of Now: A Virtual Gallery
Drew Hawkins
Roller Coaster Ride in the Atlantic is a striking and apt image for this moment: a twisting metal hull of a structure built for human enjoyment awash in the waves of a careless ocean. The photograph— by Louisiana's Julie Dermanksy— is also befitting for this tumultuous year. As we ride the coaster's rails, the ups and downs, the twists and turns, the terror and exhilaration are all overshadowed by the sense that we're underwater.
In their exhibition These Last Days Of Now, Dermanksy and Michel Varisco offer a glimpse from the shore of a world slipping beneath a rising tide caused by a warming planet.
Varisco's series literally dives into the subject. Through eerie, ethereal underwater portraits printed on aluminum, she builds a new natural world with people who seem to comfortably, if not nobly, inhabit the liminal space between "no longer," "not yet," and the "eternal now." They appear as natural as the submerged tree trunks and eel grasses surrounding them—perhaps a commentary on both the remarkability and the tragic necessity of human adaptation.
"I'm asking people to come underwater with me and let's start creating this thalassic colony because nobody is changing the direction of climate change in a large enough way that it won't be otherwise," Varisco said. "So I'm fast-forwarding and using magical realism."
The magic is the watery landscape of the future. The realism is the people, all of whom have been directly impacted by the very real effects of today's changing climate.
Alert by Michel Varisco
In Alert, the subject to the left is a man named Chris Gang, whose community in the southern coal fields of West Virginia was affected by a chemical spill. He was part of a mutual aid project focused on providing clean water access. Each of the subjects has their own story to tell from their underwater abodes.
"The idea of this show is to bring some of the reality of Julie's photographs and fast-forwarding into an imaginary world that I'm showing," said Varisco.
The pair met while they were both covering the BP oil spill in 2010. But there too, they translated what they were seeing in different ways. Varisco designed and built installations people could walk through, their movements affecting the shape and the way they perceived the piece to represent the impacts of the spill symbolically. Dermansky documented the spill extensively through her photojournalism.
Zion Travelers Cemetery in Louisiana's Cancer Alley by Julie Dermansky
As you move through the small gallery with Varisco's scenes adorning the sparse walls, the back room is filled with Dermansky's photography also printed on metal. Here, there is no magical realism, there is only stark reality. With titles like Playground next to TPC Plant After Explosion in Texas or Waffle House in Florida After Hurricane Michael, Dermansky doesn't add any extra fluff, flair, or filter. With a touch of "irony and through intensely uncomfortable juxtapositions," she illustrates the effects of a changing climate and the forces that aid and abet it. Her images are raw and evidentiary.
"I want to know. I want to see it for myself," Dermansky said of her work. "If I'm out there and sharing what I'm seeing, then I'm doing something."
Even in its limited run, the gallery was nearly forced to close by two hurricanes, an appropriate irony. Fortunately, Varisco and Dermansky were prepared for it. It's part of the reason they chose to print their images on metal—they're waterproof.
You can bear witness and view their work by moving through the exhibition in a virtual gallery here.

By Dorin Artzi for Consulate General of Israel to New England
The Consulate's Rabin Essay Contest: Second Place
Yitzhak Rabin believed that no two people are alike and no two nations are alike, but one thing which we can all share is the value of human life.
November 2, 2020 Edit 0 0

I still remember the moment when I went to school and I saw a swastika drawn up on the whiteboard. Why did someone think it was okay to draw such a hateful symbol? That day changed something in me; I began looking at the world and at people in a different way, wondering what people were truly thinking. Not long after, I started frequently hearing about religious attacks spreading hate, violence and pain. I thought to myself, how is it possible that in a world so advanced, we are still set back by prejudice and hatred? Is there any hope for change? That's when I think about Yitzhak Rabin's legacy and I am fueled with optimism and motivation. Rabin had a long military career, culminating as the Israel Defense Forces commander-in-chief. He fought in many wars and defended Israel on the battlefield. But after so long spent in war, Rabin saw a different way, a better way. His new goal was for his people to live in peace and not violence.
Peace has many definitions, but one of them is the ability to accept others. Rabin believed that no two people are alike and no two nations are alike, but one thing which we can all share is the value of human life, or as he would put it, the "Sanctity of Life." Rabin's efforts resulted in a peace treaty with Jordan and negotiations of peace with Palestine. His perseverance and hard work led to the betterment of the Middle East, and the world as a whole. Peace and acceptance of others are prevalent topics in the United States today. Even here in the United States we are often not accepting of others. This is clearly shown in the unequal pay and treatment women receive, LGBTQ discrimination and Black and hispanic discrimination. Today, more than ever, we need more leaders like Yitzhak Rabin. Leaders who tear down boundaries between people and bring us together as a human race in which all lives matter.

I want to live in a country where I can be proud to say that everyone is equal and is being treated fairly. I try emulating Rabin's legacy by standing up for what I believe, but also by being open to listening to others who have other views and by being flexible enough to change. As a counselor at the Israeli scouts, I help Israeli Americans like me to understand our roots and create our own identity, while respecting and listening to those who are different from us. I want to live up to Rabin's legacy of peace and to give people hope for a future without war, a future where people can look at each other with acceptance and love. Anyone can change, and believing in yourself is the most important thing of all. This is Rabin's legacy; this is Israel's legacy, and I hope that one day it will be my legacy too.

Macron honours 'sacrifice' of 13 French soldiers killed in Mali
France's President Emmanuel Macron speaks in front of the coffin of the 13 French soldiers who died in a helicopter collision in Mali during the tribute ceremony at the Invalides monument in Paris on Dec 2, 2019. — AFP
PARIS: President Emmanuel Macron on Monday paid tribute to the "sacrifice" of 13 soldiers killed in a helicopter collision while battling jihadists in Mali, a disaster that has prompted fresh questioning of the costs of France's six-year campaign in West Africa.
The soldiers died when two helicopters collided last Monday while pursuing jihadists in northern Mali, where militant violence has soared in recent months.
It was the biggest single-day loss for the French military in nearly four decades, rekindling doubts about the effectiveness of France's 4,500-member Barkhane operation in Mali and four other countries in the Sahel.
Macron placed a Legion d'Honneur medal, France's highest award, on each coffin of the 13 soldiers, draped in the red, white and blue of the French flag.
"Today we honour not only the duty of those who served France, but their clear and profound acceptance of this duty," he said at the ceremony attended by the country's political and military leaders at the Invalides complex in Paris.
"They died while fighting for France, for the protection of the people in the Sahel, for the security of their fellow citizens and for the world's freedom — for all of us here," he said.
"I bow before their sacrifice."
Some 2,500 people, including dozens of comrades from the fallen soldiers' regiments, attended the commemoration, which was also broadcast on a giant screen outside the Invalides.
Hundreds of people had lined streets earlier as the motorcade bearing the coffins crossed the ornate Alexandre III bridge heading for the Invalides military hospital and museum.
Margot Louvet, 23, came from Gap in southeast France for the procession, wearing a T-shirt with the official portrait of one of the soldiers killed, her friend Antoine Serre, 22.
"Being here is a way to mourn him, and realise that he won't be coming back," she told AFP while fighting back tears.
'All options on the table'
The French forces in Mali are tasked with training local security forces to take on the jihadists, but so far these remain woefully unprepared despite years of pledges of more international funding and equipment.
Forty-one French soldiers have now died in the Sahel since the intervention began in 2013, when insurgents swept into Mali's north and rapidly advanced before being pushed back.
But despite France's presence the jihadists have regrouped to carry out deadly attacks and violence has spread to neighbouring countries.
Macron has promised a thorough review of the Barkhane operation in the wake of the helicopter accident, vowing that "all options are on the table".
He also reiterated his call last week for EU allies to step up their participation in the West Africa operation after years of failing to secure significant support.
Only Britain has contributed helicopters and security personnel, while the US provides intelligence on jihadist movements across an area the size of Western Europe.
So far, only the far-left France Unbowed party has openly called for the Barkhane troops to be brought home.
An Ifop poll for the Lettre de l'Expansion newsletter, published Monday, showed that 58% of respondents approve of the Sahel operation, a level hardly changed from a previous poll in March 2013.
Cartoon controversy
But controversy flared over the weekend after the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo published a series of cartoons online associating the 13 soldiers' deaths with the army's recent recruitment campaign.
In one drawing, Macron stands before a coffin in front of the slogan: "I joined the ranks to stand out from the crowd."
The French army's chief of staff, General Thierry Burkhard, expressed his "indignation" at the cartoons, saying in an open letter they sullied the period of mourning for the bereaved families.
The magazine's editor Laurent "Riss" Sourisseau defended on Sunday the magazine's "satirical spirit" while acknowledging the importance of the work of the French army and the soldiers' sacrifice.
Mali's President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita also attended the ceremony, as he tries to defuse growing hostility at home to French and other foreign forces helping to fight Islamic militants.
Keita on Saturday urged Malians not to "bite the hands of those who give us theirs today".
Since January, more than 1,500 civilians have been killed in jihadist violence in Mali and Burkina Faso, and more than one million people have been internally displaced across the five countries, the UN said this month. — AFP

Pueblo East grapplers celebrate school's first wrestling championship
Marcus Hill Sports Reporter @MarcusLHill
East High School's wrestling team on Thursday accomplished another first: they celebrated their Class 4A state title wrestling title with an assembly.
Students, staff, administration and coaches gathered in the auditorium of East High School to commemorate the Eagles' first-ever wrestling championship, one where all 12 competitors scored points to give them their 200 for the state tournament victory.
Robert Caricato, East's principal, praised the competitors for their individual accomplishments as well as their accolades as a team.
"What impresses me the most about these young men is even though they had their own personal goals to win a state title," Caricato said, "they went into this tournament and competed as a team and they won a state championship as a team."
Eagles athletic director Elly Naill continued the kind words. Following last season's near-miss of their first title, Naill recalled the Eagles hitting the mats shortly after state.
"You're an example of inspiration and dedication," Naill said. "Not one athlete or coach made an excuse. You made an opportunity by your heart and your drive to leave nothing to chance. I'm honored to be able to be part of this journey with you guys."
She also delivered news that Aaden Valdez was awarded the Spirit of Sport award, which is annually conferred to eight section recipients as well as one national recipient.
"Aaden has overcome a life-changing accident," Naill said, referring to his fireworks accident July 4, 2017 that cost him his left eye and most of his left hand. "Through his Aadenstory Firework Safety Campaign and his safety tips coloring book … he's speaking to various elementary school and middle school students about the importance of safety. He's an advocate for eye safety and an inspiration for overcoming obstacles."
Valdez was happy to earn the honor and be able to help those in the community.
"This feels amazing just knowing that I have everyone's love and support," Valdez said. "It means a lot. Everything that I've done people are recognizing. The more the word gets out there and the more my fireworks campaign gets noticed, the bigger it can get."
Pueblo City Schools (D60) Athletic Director Rick Macias, officially awarded Eagles' coach Pat Laughlin with the 4A coach of the year plaque.
Laughlin received the award following the state wrestling tournament on Feb. 23.
Macias shared a story with the audience about he and Laughlin's wrestling background.
"In the spring time, his dad would put real cow manure on the front lawn," Macias said. "When we wrestled, nobody wanted to lose a takedown. Because if you lost a takedown, it was pretty much your face (would be) in manure."
Laughlin didn't put his athletes through that ordeal, but he and the coaches at East pushed them to become the best versions of themselves.
They pushed wrestlers like Andy Garcia to become the Eagles' first-ever, three-time state champion. Coaches, along with the dedication of the athletes, also helped make Zion Freeman and Dominic Robles into champions this season and Jace Trujillo in 2016.
It's also led to several accomplishments aside from titles.
"We have two, four-time state placers in Jace Trujillo and Zion Freeman," Laughlin said. "This is a tremendous accomplishment as there have only been three to accomplish this feat in the history of East wrestling."
That also included objectives the Eagles laid out before the year.
"We set three goals at the beginning of the season: Goal No. 1: win the league championship. Check," Laughlin said. "Goal No. 2: win the regional championship. Check. Goal No. 3: win the state championship. We have achieved all three of those."
Representatives from Pueblo West, Pueblo County, South, Central and Centennial each provided the Eagles with gifts and gift basket to celebrate the day.
Following the shower of gifts, Garcia, Robles, Valdez and Ryan Roth, who are team captains, took the stage and thanked the coaches for what they've done throughout the season.
"Coach Zach (Valdez) and coach Laughlin and all the coaches have done so much for me," Roth said. "They're like family. This whole team is like family. It's not even a team anymore. I love everyone on this team and I'm happy to be on this team."

UU Reading
Mindfulness Goes Secular
The Mindfulness Fad, part 2
Westerners are weird about anything we identify as a religion. If something is a religious practice, we're skeptical, suspicious. Some of us already have a religion – and we typically think we can have only one, so we aren't interested in another. And those of us who don't have a religion often don't want one – so, again, we'll stay away from a practice if we think it's religious. But if it doesn't feel like a religion, we will be game to try anything: Marxism, Freudian psychoanalysis, pilates.
If you have a cool therapy, technique, or analysis that you want to offer to people, you may be able to get access to schools, prisons, the military, meetings civic groups, and workplace programs to talk about your helpful practice. But if you're the messiah of a new religion, or a preacher, teacher, or guru of an established one, those institutions are much more likely to be closed to you. We're suspicious of religion. We want our public institutions generally to be neutral about religion, as we also want them to be neutral about partisan politics. We understand that religion and politics divides us. But a program that promises to be helpful to people of any religion, or none, and people of any politics, or none, has a chance to be welcomed in our public institutions.
So Jon Kabat-Zinn, a molecular biologist and a long-time student and practitioner of Zen, knew that if Americans were going to accept the techniques he'd been learning in Zen, he had to find a way to present them so they didn't feel religious. The program Kabat-Zinn devised and launched in 1979 is essentially a series of Zen trainings, but instead of calling them Zen trainings, he calls it Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction – MBSR. As MBSR, it doesn't have any of those trappings associated with religious traditions: no priestly types in robes, a minimum of chanting and bowing, funding itself more from fee-for-class and less from donations, not much sense of continuing relationship once the term of the class is over.
And it really took off. You pay four or five hundred dollars for a class that meets once a week for eight weeks, and you get the teaching and learn the practices without being subjected to authorities in funny clothes or membership in an ongoing community.
Google teaches mindfulness to its employees – and so do more stuffy companies like McKinsey and BlackRock. There are mindfulness apps for your smartphone – more than two dozen, some offering $400 lifetime subscriptions. There are mats and cushions and clothing lines and incense and bells and "mindful lotus tea" (6 dollars for 20 bags). Meditation-related businesses in 2015 generated $984 million in revenue. As journalist David Gelles put it: "For an enterprising contemplative, it's never been easier to make a buck."
"There are Mindful Meats, Mindful Mints and the Mindful Supply Company, which makes T-shirts." You can paint your bedroom in "Mindful Gray." A dairy-free mayonnaise-substitute called "Mindful Mayo" is $4.50 a jar.
There's a book – actually two books – titled One-Minute Mindfulness: one by Donald Altman, 2011, and one by Simon Parke, 2015. But mindfulness needs to be more than a brief reprieve between checking Facebook and the next episode of Stranger Things. A newer 2017 book by S.J. Scott seems to acknowledge that mindfulness will take a little more time. Its title is: Ten-Minute Mindfulness.
Much of this mindfulness rage is faddish, and, I will say, not helpful. In fairness, I think there's also a lot of it that is helpful. And, full disclosure: I own and use daily: a zabuton (mat), a zafu (round cushion), inkin bell (bell on a stick), bell gong ("singing bowl"), wooden clappers, a Buddha statue, a meditation timer app on my tablet, and an ample supply of incense. The MNDFL studios and some of the apps strike me as rather pricey and often unnecessary, but for folks who can afford it, who don't have an established practice, who are looking around for what might work for them while fitting within their schedule, I'm glad they've got the options.
Yes, a lot of what peddles itself as a mindful product has nothing to do with actually doing anything. Moreover, it's important to be aware that many of the supposed advantages of mindfulness can be gotten in other ways. For instance, it's true that 30-minutes of meditating does reduce stress and lower blood pressure and promote a more positive feeling about your life. You can also get those results from 30 minutes of stretching or exercising or, for that matter, watching an I Love Lucy re-run.
Many people find that the practice improves work performance, but perhaps you remember the Hawthorne effect? They kept making the lighting brighter, and productivity kept going up. Then they started dimming the lights more and more, and productivity still went up. It turns out that any change that you think will make you more focused and productive, probably will. It's a version of the placebo effect. Maybe mindfulness training will get you a little further than the placebo effect – and so would getting more sleep.
There's also worry that companies pushing mindfulness on their employees are just trying to get more out of them without otherwise improving their pay and working conditions. Some writers have worried that "McMindfulness" placates people into acceptance of political and social injustices (e.g., Virginia Heffernan, Kristen Ghodsee, Ruth Whippman). I don't have this worry. It's my own experience, confirmed in numerous accounts from other people, that being rooted in the here and now, and feeling the joy in each moment, also awakens compassion, and makes us more, not less, energized to take action for justice.
Your capacity for joy – your ability to feel and be present to and sustain joyousness – is equal to your capacity for sadness and pain – your ability to feel and be present to grief – for they are the same capacity. Mindfulness increases that carrying capacity for both joy and sorrow at the same time, for it is in the numbed-up mindlessness of pursuit of continual distraction that we push both of them away. Genuine mindfulness will then contribute to, rather than detract from, social activism for a more just and peaceful world, and workplace activism for fair wages and working conditions.

What Is Liberal Religion?
What Religion is About
Unitarian Universalists believe . . . that your religion isn't about what you believe. So what is religion about?
1. Religion is about the way you live: the ethics and values that guide your life.
2. Religion is about community: the people with whom you choose to join in faith community, and the rituals, songs, and stories that affirm and strengthen community connection.
3. Religion is about experience: the moments of transcendence, awe, mystery, wonder, beauty, interconnection and oneness.
A faith congregation, liberal or conservative, aims to bring these three very different things together in such a way that each one reinforces the other two.
The Five Smooth Stones of Liberalism
What, then, makes religion liberal? James Luther Adams (1901-1996) identified these "five smooth stones":
1. Openness to New Truth. "Religious liberalism depends first on the principle that revelation is continuous. Meaning has not been finally captured. Nothing is complete, and thus nothing is exempt from criticism." Our religious tradition is a living tradition because we are always learning.
2. Freedom. "All relations between persons ought ideally to rest on mutual, free consent and not on coercion." We freely choose congregational relationship and spiritual practice. We deny infallibility and resist hierarchical authority.
3. Justice. We are morally obligated to direct our "effort toward the establishment of a just and loving community. It is this which makes the role of the prophet central and indispensable in liberalism."
4. Institution Building. Religious liberals "deny the immaculate conception of virtue and affirm the necessity of social incarnation....Justice is an exercise of just and lawful institutional power." Institution building involves the messiness of claiming our power amid conflicting perspectives and needs, rather than the purity of ahistorical, decontextualized ideals.
5. Hope. "The resources (divine and human) that are available for the achievement of meaningful change justify an attitude of ultimate optimism."

We are empowering the whole person to love Jesus, this includes our hearts, minds soul and strength. Growing our hearts for the Lord, includes understanding who he is as well as making an appropriate response to Him.
That's why we are developing in our children a passion to know Jesus and Love Jesus.
The Kids Club Band is just a group of kids who love Jesus and want to express it with their whole selves.
We are looking to creatively discover more of who He is and let our responses come out in song, dance, playing music, drama, prayer and celebration.
And we are committed to loving God and making Him look good anyway we can.
We are looking for people who want to invest into our kids love for Jesus.
INTERESTED IN THE kids CLUB wORSHIP BAND?
Why is KIDS CLUB different than the 2nd service?
As described in 2020 Vision, our desire for our kids to know and love God deeply, who display God's love intentionally, and who participate in His call to be followers of Jesus who produce other followers of Jesus.
Crossroads Kids Club is focused on student participation as we seek to develop passionate followers of Jesus.
engages, empowers, equips and encourages is emphasized.
We call it age-appropriate discipleship training.
It includes Skills Development: things we all need to be better at, e.g., having conversations, inviting people to church, encouraging people with our words, praying for the lost, understanding people's identity in Christ, speaking truth in love, how to have a quiet time, how to study the Bible, displaying compassion.
During this service, worship will encourage the students to actively join in worship, singing, playing instruments and following motions. We are building a Kids Club Worship Band where children will help lead children in worship.
During this service, learning emphasizes engaging the whole body, soul, and mind in discovering how to walk as Jesus walked.
We are raising up passionate followers of Jesus.
The kids worship together in a large group setting. In what we will call the Clubhouse.
The kids are separated into Crews and are dispersed a couple times throughout the hour and return back into the larger group.

10-10-10: Matthew Oquendo and Mary Jane Johnson
UCSB and SBCC Students Pair Up for Film About a Deaf, Coke-Snorting Violinist and Her Mom
By Avery Hardy

Avery Hardy
When you're a philosophy major making a short film that'll compete against the seasoned students of Brooks, things can feel pretty hairy.
That's the position Matt Oquendo of UCSB is in; he's an amateur filmmaker whose love of moviemaking got him to the finals of this year's 10-10-10 competition. With his crew of two, Oquendo brought to life one of the most challenging scripts this year: the tale of a deaf, coke-snorting violinist and her sexually active mother, scripted by Mary Jane Johnson of SBCC.
Oquendo's been making movies for most of his young life, but didn't get serious about things until college. But instead of majoring in film, he went after philosophy — a major he says he knew wouldn't lead him into a specific career. Film, he says, is now his "Future Job of Choice," and he's hoping 10-10-10 will give him another chance to show his stuff.
Meanwhile, Matt's got enough on his plate just trying to break into the film world. Because he's not part of any film programs, Matt says the hardest part was just tracking down people to be his crew and actors. And finding a way to fake some cocaine — they ended up using powdered sugar.

Finally, Japanese luxury brand Acura has endowed its most affordable compact ILX sedan with upscale styling that's easily in line with the rest of its offerings, giving it more than enough premium-level wow factor to make well-equipped Honda Civic owners spend the extra coin needed to partake and lure luxury buyers away from rival brands.
First off, I love the changes made to Acura's imposing metal shield grille, its thinner, sculpted, opened and more athletic design, but really, the sensational "Jewel Eye" LED headlights are the car's most eye-arresting focal points. Five, square LEDs in chrome bezels, underscored by a long thin line of slimmer LEDs make a dazzling statement, and the twinned LED turn signals are truly magnificent when flashing at night. Following the sportier theme, a sculpted bumper with an air inlet at center and brake cooling ducts to each side incorporate large circular fog lamps within the latter when upgraded to A-Spec trim, enhancing the newfound aggressive stance this car now delivers.
My top-line tester also received a fabulous set of machine-finished 18-inch alloy rims with black-painted pockets on 225/40R18 Continental ContiProContact high-performance all-season rubber. Usually, any model's sportiest trim incorporates some type of turn signal integrated within its side mirror housings, a definite safety advantage and a style enhancer when included, but for some reason Acura has left these totally off the ILX menu, while the brilliantly designed door handles get marred by black rubber buttons for the proximity-sensing passive entry system. On the positive, the A-Spec receives rocker extensions for a sportier look. They're tacked on with an aftermarket appearance, but that's probably ok, as they'll no doubt still appeal to Acura's aging sport compact crowd.
From the rear, a new set of more complicated red and clear/white taillights attract, while the A-Spec also gets a classy deck lid spoiler with a thin, elegant strip of chrome across the top edge and the lower valance done out in a sporty diffuser-style design that mimics the front air dam. This ILX misses out on a panoramic sunroof, however, which is a common feature in this premium class, at least in top-tier trims, instead incorporating a conventional powered sunroof.
That glass roof sheds light on an interior that's much the same as the outgoing ILX, except for a thoroughly updated center stack with Acura's new two-tiered dual-display infotainment system when upgraded to second-rung Premium or higher trims. It features a large, main monitor recessed and shrouded up top and designated to support functions like navigation, phone controls, vehicle info, and more, plus a bright and clear touchscreen just below that's dedicated to the audio and HVAC systems, the former display controlled by a nicely laid out interface of buttons surrounding a massive rotating knob with a pushbutton center, all situated within easy reach under the lower display. This said, I prefer such infotainment controls on the lower console where they can be accessed even more easily and I've heard others complain about such systems. Lower console in mind, I also like heated seats with more adjustability, these two-way warmers not flexible enough for my multiple moods, whereas the ILX gives no option for heated rear seats at all. That's a serious oversight considering the latter items are available in mainstream volume branded economy cars.
Also strange but true, this top-line Acura compact doesn't include the superb LaneWatch blind-spot projection camera system housed on the passenger-side mirror that's offered with the Civic and many other Honda and Acura models, the Civic being the donor platform architecture for the ILX. This system is extremely helpful for lane changes, and not including it here is an epic fail by Acura. This said, the new ILX now offers an optional blind spot system that monitors both sides of the car and uses lane-keeping assist to stop you from changing lanes when a vehicle might already be occupying the adjacent lane or is fast approaching.
This is added to an impressive suite of AcuraWatch Plus active safety features that also includes road departure mitigation, forward collision warning, collision mitigation with auto-brake, and adaptive radar cruise control, the latter more for convenience than safety, but one of my favorite features during a long road trip. With respect to the other AcuraWatch features, take a close look at the top of the windscreen and you'll see a camera hidden above the rearview mirror, which works with the radar system to detect potential threats ahead of the car, alerting the driver of possible collision and taking preemptive measures, such as automatically applying the brakes. The camera also monitors lane markings and if sensing the ILX veering out of its lane relays a message to the steering system to tug it back on course. Yes, we're well on our way to driverless cars. While most will agree that these new features are an improvement, I have to ask Acura why they didn't allow LaneWatch to continue as part of this package when adding the extra safety of these more common active safety systems. At least then they'd have the market benefit of a proprietary technology to set the ILX completely apart from competitors, rather than these good albeit homogeneous features.
While there are many behind-the-scenes similarities between the lowly (but excellent) Civic and this premium ILX, you'll be hard pressed to notice many carryover items without scanning each and every square inch of the car. Acura has gone above and beyond to refine the ILX driver and passenger experience. For instance, the entire dash top is made from a high-quality pleasantly pliable synthetic, as are the door uppers front to back. Sure, the lower portions of the cabin including the glove box lid and lower door panels are still made from a harder textured plastic but this isn't unusual in the compact luxury class, even from some of the German manufacturers. Acura also adds some nice aluminum trim across the instrument panel, although it doesn't extend to the doors. Instead there's an attractive and comfortable padded leather-like material for the door inserts and armrests, replete with contrasting white stitching.
This matches the white stitching on the leather-clad seats, their inserts done out in perforated Lux-Suede for added comfort and better mid-corner grip, this feature, along with red instrument panel illumination, a black roofliner and metal foot pedals that are specific to the A-Spec upgrade. I particularly like this soft and warm suede-like approach during the colder months when leather can be an unwelcome aftershock when sitting down, at least until the seat heaters start to sizzle, while in the hot months of summer this material won't scorch the legs of short- and skirt-wearing occupants. The seats are superbly comfortable and thoroughly supportive especially laterally where they hold the backside in place well when pushing the car hard through the corners.
While that last point would be an ideal segue into the new ILX A-Spec's driving dynamics, I first need to comment on a nicely laid out two-large-dial primary gauge cluster with simple yet stylish black faces, bright white numerals and large increment indicators, plus bright red fine increments, with red on gray needles spinning within. At center, between the two dials, is a sizable TFT multi-information display accessed via myriad buttons on the thick leather-wrapped steering wheel.
While the center stack is an impressive upgrade from the previous ILX, this latest 2016 model was still missing de rigueur fabric-wrapped roof pillars, cloth on the A-pillars being an absolute must-have in the compact premium class and all three pillars properly covered an expected bonus, while additional Civic carryover items still include the plastic grab handles attached to the ceiling, the trunk and gas cap pull releases on the driver's side floor, many of the mechanical items inside such as the tilt and telescopic steering wheel adjuster, plus more.
Again, on the bright side, this excellently upgraded ILX is nicely packed full of standard and optional features. Base cars, which start at $27,000 plus $940 for freight and pre-delivery prep, get auto on/off LED headlamps plus the previously noted passive access with pushbutton ignition, remote start, a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel and shift knob, heatable front seats, the high-resolution TFT multi-information display commented on a moment ago, as well as 17-inch alloy wheels on 215/45R17 high-performance all-seasons, dual-zone auto HVAC, a five-inch infotainment system featuring a multi-angle backup camera, Bluetooth with text messaging, Siri Eyes-Free, six-speaker AM/FM/CD/MP3/WMA/USB/AUX audio, ambient lighting, a powered moonroof, an eight-way powered driver's seat, fabric upholstery, a security system, and tire pressure monitoring, plus all the usual safety equipment.
For $29,200 plus freight all the aforementioned AcuraWatch active safety features get added to the appropriately named ILX with AcuraWatch Plus model, while those who want extra convenience features without the AcuraWatch safety system need to upgrade to the Premium package that adds upgraded main infotainment with email and text messaging, the aforementioned twin-screen infotainment system with the On Demand Multi-Use Display (the second touchscreen below the main one) along with upgraded audio with satellite and HD radio, aha compatibility, a subwoofer, plus an eight-position powered driver's sport seat with two-way memory, a four-way powered sport passenger seat, perforated leather upholstery, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a garage door opener, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert.
I should mention here that so-equipped the 2016 ILX earned a Top Safety Pick + from the IIHS, whereas all new ILX trims achieve a 5-Star crash test rating from the NHTSA.
The A-Spec model is next in the ILX pecking order, featuring all Premium features and starting at $31,890. Along with everything already mentioned it includes a set of circular fog lamps, items that I'd normally expect to see further down the desirability ladder of a premium model.
On that note, while my tester's overhead console was an attractive combination of lights, switches and buttons, the two most colorful of the latter variety controlling AcuraLink and a telephony assist button for emergencies. There's no sunglasses holder, a feature I personally appreciate. On the positive side, that colorful array of buttons denotes top-line Technology Plus trim, which for $32,900 without the A-Spec upgrade or $34,890 including the as-tested sporty package includes everything from the Premium package and adds back all AcuraWatch features, as well as GPS-linked auto climate control, upgraded AcuraLink smartphone connectivity with phone-book exchange for Bluetooth HandsFreeLink and real-time traffic with rerouting capability, dynamic guidelines for the multi-view camera, navigation with 3D view and voice recognition plus Song By Voice, 10-speaker Acura/ELS Studio audio with Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound, and a note function music-reminder for the satellite radio.
An ILX highlight is the red metallic start/stop button, which connects through to one of the better engines in the compact class. This might be the biggest change for the 2016 update, with all three engines in the outgoing ILX replaced by (hybrid aside for those wishing there was still a green fuel-efficiency alternative), an "Earth Dreams" 16-valve, DOHC, 2.4-liter four-cylinder with i-VTEC and direct-injection that's capable of 201 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque for satisfying acceleration when digging deep into the drive-by-wire throttle, and a soul-stirring exhaust note to go along with it. Front-wheel drive is the only layout, which might be a detractor for those cross-shopping from other premium brands, although a complete lack of torque-steer reduces one of the classic negatives produced by high-powered front-wheel drivetrains, and the ILX's standard and sole transmission should give all competitors some pause.
The eight-speed dual-clutch automated gearbox that, like other similar transmissions on the market, delivers speedy shifts and efficient operation, but Acura's design differs from the rest thanks to a built-in torque converter that delivers smoother gear changes than rival dual-clutch transmissions, while its standard paddle shifters certainly make it more fun to drive. The bad news is that Honda's beyond-brilliant six-speed manual, sourced from the Civic Si and previously available with the ILX Dynamic, is no longer available (it's now appropriate for a collective sigh). Let's just hope Honda doesn't abandon this gearbox altogether, as such a mistake would be a disaster for sport compact performance fans. Still, this eight-speed autobox is superb, with immediate response to input and fantastically quick shifts, plus the smoothness as advertised which is most appreciated while tooling around town or cruising the highway at a relaxed pace.
Relaxed is nice, but like me you'll probably be tempted to push the ILX when the road starts to open up. That's where the ILX should be praised, at least in A-Spec trim as tested. Set it to S mode if you want to get the most out of the mechanicals, and while there's no need to do any shifting yourself as the smart transmission will be only too happy to serve up a spirited drive all on its own, it's hard to leave those paddles alone. As stated, shifts are incredibly quick, positive, and certainly sporting, while the ILX A-Spec's 18s add a little more lateral grip to improve on the car's already upgraded underpinnings, which include new heavier duty front sub-frames, revised tuning for the motion-adaptive electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering resulting in better feel and response, upgraded bushings for the MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension, carryover amplitude reactive dampers, plus larger anti-roll bars front and rear. It feels wonderful in the corners, understeering slightly but overall quite balanced for a front-driven car, the rear wheels following those up front in dutiful progression, albeit not much good for tail-wagging fun unless you get really silly with speed, the steering wheel, parking brake lever if so-skilled, and an off-camber corner if available.
Driven at a more conservative pace it lives up to its luxury car pretense, Acura having filled more hollow areas and coated more hidden surfaces with sound insulation while adding active noise cancellation as well, therefore lowering NVH levels for a more premium experience overall.
At this speed it seems appropriate to discuss the ILX's claimed EPA fuel economy rating of 25 mpg city, 36 highway and 29 combined, which is excellent considering the car's performance potential. Pricier premium unleaded is recommended to get the most out of the engine, although it's not required.
While on this practical bent I should also mention how comfortable the rear seats are, while the usual flip-down center armrest with dual cupholders makes them even more appealing when two are in back. Just behind, the trunk is fairly large for the class, measuring 12.3 cubic feet, but given that even the common Civic comes with split-folding rear seatbacks to increase cargo capacity I was surprised that the ILX's entire seatback folded forward instead of the usual 60/40 division, or as with some models, 40/20/40. This makes the ILX an all or nothing lifestyle choice, forcing you to leave friends or kids at home when going skiing or needing to load some other long item in back. Of course you could opt for a roof rack, but that's more of a wagon- or SUV-style accessory that those in the sport sedan class don't usually want to fidget with. Even a simple rear-seat pass-through would be a big improvement over this very limiting, and for some, deal-breaking omission, so Acura may want to rethink this problem.
Onto something more uplifting, the new ILX achieved a second-place ranking in the JD Power and Associates 2015 Initial Quality Study, but it's actually more like a first place finish as the two-door BMW 2 Series coupe and convertible combo that won doesn't actually compete directly. That said, the entire Acura brand ranked way below average at 26th out of 33 brands, while the ILX received no individual commendation in the same third-party analytical firm's 2015 Vehicle Dependability Study while Acura experienced much better results with a score of 12 out of 31 brands overall.
The compact premium segment was once pitifully small and less important in the overall scheme of things and some entrants have already departed like Volvo's C30. Others have hung around but only in hybrid form such as Lexus' CT200h, and newcomers like Audi's A3 sedan, Mercedes' CLA, and even Buick's Verano are making it harder to stand out. I'm going to make a wild guess that BMW will soon show up with a four-door C-segment compact of its own and others will arrive to take part as well, while most of the mainstream volume brands are also nudging up against the luxury class in this ever more popular segment. This means that, while the ILX is an extremely enjoyable performance car that does a great job of layering on the luxury goods and high-tech features, Acura needs to measure up by adding on premium-level features that were notably missing. Let's hope they rise to the occasion, as the ILX in its current form is a superb little luxury compact that while totally deserving of your attention needs a little more paid from Acura itself.

The African Report on Child Wellbeing series is a pan-African project initiated to promote state accountability to children and mobilise legal, policy and administrative actions towards progressive realisation of the ideals and principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (ACRWC). The Report regularly assesses the extent to which African governments are living up to their commitments to children and provide critical analyses of strengths and weaknesses of national efforts made to put in place child-sensitive laws and policies and effectively implement them.
The African Child Information Hub
The African Child Policy Forum (ACPF) launched the African Child Information Hub (InfoHub) in November 2006. The main objective of the InfoHub is to create a forum to facilitate the exchange of information, ideas and experiences on matters relating to children. The InfoHub features a database of child-focused organizations , Data and Statistics on indicators of the wellbeing of children in Africa, the African Child E-Newsletter, News , an events calendar, reports, documents and research publications on the state of children.
The International Policy Conference on the African Child (IPC) is a biennial unique and independent Pan-African platform for policy dialogue on issues affecting children in Africa. The Conference provides a platform to reflect on themes of paramount importance and urgency in Africa, share experiences, and agree on the way forward for accelerating collective action.
Larissa Award
The Larissa Award draws attention to, documents and rewards good practice models in advancing the cause of children in Africa and encourages their replication. The specific purpose of the Larissa Award is to give recognition and encouragement to exemplary initiatives that made Africa a better place for its children. The Award seeks to project a positive image of a continent that is often portrayed only as one of doom and gloom. The Award covers a broad range of areas such as health care, education, nutrition, disability, and care for orphans.
Ms Enakshi Ganguly Thukral
I congratulate African Child Policy Forum on its completing 10 years.
We were introduced to ACPF by Frances Sheahan who was documenting children's legal protection centres for ACPF and wanted to write about the work HAQ: Centre for Child Rights did in this area. This was in 2007.
In 2009, HAQ: Centre for Child Rights was organising its first international colloquium on children and governance. In researching for potential participants we came across ACPF's report on child friendliness of governments and decided to write to Dr. Assefa Bequele (that was June 2, 2009). Since I did not have a personal email id for him, I wrote at the organisational one. It was month before I got a reply from him---by which time we had almost given up !
In one of his early mails to me he wrote, "Many people assume Assefa is a woman's name. Just to let you know it is a very popular and very masculine Ethiopian name! I hope you get the joke – I am only trying to implify things for you, in case you may not know how to address me." And I replied- "Yes I know your gender! I found out...just so that I do not make faux pax, which incidentally I am extremely prone to". This was the beginning of an endearing relationship between not just our two organisations, but between us as individuals too.
Assefa attended the first ever global meeting on children and governance in India, hosted by HAQ in November 2011. He and ACPF thus became an important part of HAQ's journey.
I had the good fortune to visit ACPF and Addis Ababa twice- once for the preparatory meeting on the next African child well being report on budgeting and then for the release of the report in 2010.
It was also the time that I interacted with the ACPF team and understood the methodology for developing an Index. I have no hesitation in acknowledging that HAQ's Child Rights Index (2011) would not have been born, had it not been for the encouragement and sometimes even the push from my friend Assefa. We were in touch with Yehulashet Mekonen, cross-checking and verifying our methodology, which we have drawn upon from the ACPF report, and are deeply indebted to him for his patient support. However, our joy at being able to have come out with the Indian child rights index would have been incomplete had Assefa not been here with us on that occasion. This was also our second global colloquium on children and governance in November 2011.
ACPF's work is also included in the book "Every Right for Every Child-Children and Governance", which I compiled and edited, and for which Assefa wrote a chapter on developing a child friendly index. It is significant that at the release of this book, Assefa should say, "We have been actually grappling with issues of policy and governance at ACPF in a rather isolated way, without quite realising it. It is HAQ that made us realise that that is what we were doing…"
Hence, if I look back our association is not very long in terms of years, it may not seem very long. But it has been a mutually supportive relationship that transcends years and geographical space. That is the need of the day.
I congratulate African Child Policy Forum on its completing 10 years. Its work on bringing children's issues on to the centre stage of policy and discourse in Africa is pioneering. The child friendly index that it brought out in 2008 has inspired many such efforts across the world, including the Child Rights Index –India by HAQ: Centre for Child Rights. The quality of ACPF's research and publications is an inspiration for its quality and professionalism.
In its unique position as pan African organisation, ACPF has been successfully been able to bring multiple players- governments, civil society as well as international organisations into dialogue with each other to influence policy and discourse. This is also evident in the august board that ACPF has.
Ten years is a very important threshold in the life of an organisation. It has been the time for dreaming and building. The subsequent years are of consolidating, reviewing, and planning ahead. It is a time to also renew energies and revisit and reiterate dreams that sometimes get lost along the way. I wish ACPF all the best in this new phase and hope it will continue to address critical issues that affect the children in Africa and bring them into debate and action, and that we will discover and realise some common dreams together.
My very best wishes are with the ACPF team.

Célio Lúcio da Costa Quarto (born 11 February 1971), known as Célio Lúcio, is a Brazilian football manager and former player who played as a central defender. He is the current manager of Goiás' under-20 squad.

Playing career
Born in Cajuri, Minas Gerais, Célio Lúcio was a Cruzeiro youth graduate. After making his first team debut in 1991, he subsequently became a starter and helped the club to win two Copa do Brasil and the 1997 Copa Libertadores; in the meantime, he also spent the 1995 season on loan at Palmeiras.

Célio Lúcio moved abroad in late 1997, joining S.C. Braga in Portugal, but returned to Brazil in July 1998 after signing for Coritiba on loan. After returning from loan, he spent a year without playing before joining Rio Branco-SP in 2000, but still owned by Braga.

Célio Lúcio subsequently represented América Mineiro, Goiás, Ipatinga, Olympic and União Rondonópolis, retiring with the latter in 2004 at the age of 33.

Manager career
Shortly after retiring, Célio Lúcio started working as an assistant manager, his first side being the under-20s of Francana, in 2005. He then worked for local sides before joining Cléber's staff at Metropolitano in 2010; the duo also worked together at Araxá in 2011.

Célio Lúcio returned to Cruzeiro in June 2011, as an assistant manager of the under-20 side. He was named manager of the category in 2019, but was named assistant of the main squad in January 2020.

During the 2020 campaign, Célio Lúcio also worked as an interim manager on two occasions, after the departures of Ney Franco and Luiz Felipe Scolari.
