Dear Holston Annual Conference Members and Guests: We Are So BUSINESS OF THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE 155 WELCOME TO LAKE JUNALUSKA Dear Holston Annual Conference Members and Guests: We are so pleased to welcome you back to Lake Junaluska once again for the Holston Annual Conference. Your loyalty to this place and its mission, “to be a place of Christian hospitality where lives are transformed through the renewal of soul, mind, and body” is deeply appreciated. We hope you will take full advantage of the opportunities provided for you while you are here to experience that transformation and renewal for yourself in the midst of the important work of holy conferencing. We have been blessed with many assets here at Lake Junaluska, and the greatest by far is our location. From the beautiful lake itself, the gorgeous centerpiece of our grounds, to the surrounding mountains and beyond we are situated as a gateway to some of the best outdoors that Western North Carolina has to offer. Right here at the lake we have 16 gardens, four miles of walking trails, a golf course, boat rentals, and dozens of areas for meditation. Just a short drive away you will find whitewater rafting, skiing, and easy access to two of the most visited national parks in the nation. Not every Annual Conference has the benefit of taking place on sacred ground with such easy access to the wonderful renewing power of God’s creation. It is our goal to help you make the most of it. We sincerely want you to have a wonderful time with us at the 2017 Holston Annual Conference. We are here to serve you.

  • Dallas (1978 TV Series)
    Dallas (1978 TV series) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the original 1978–1991 television series. For the sequel, see Dallas (2012 TV series). Dallas is a long-running American prime time television soap opera that aired from April 2, 1978, to May 3, 1991, on CBS. The series revolves around a wealthy and feuding Texan family, the Ewings, who own the independent oil company Ewing Oil and the cattle-ranching land of Southfork. The series originally focused on the marriage of Bobby Ewing and Pamela Barnes, whose families were sworn enemies with each other. As the series progressed, oil tycoon J.R. Ewing grew to be the show's main character, whose schemes and dirty business became the show's trademark.[1] When the show ended in May 1991, J.R. was the only character to have appeared in every episode. The show was famous for its cliffhangers, including the Who shot J.R.? mystery. The 1980 episode Who Done It remains the second highest rated prime-time telecast ever.[2] The show also featured a "Dream Season", in which the entirety of the ninth season was revealed to have been a dream of Pam Ewing's. After 14 seasons, the series finale "Conundrum" aired in 1991. The show had a relatively ensemble cast. Larry Hagman stars as greedy, scheming oil tycoon J.R. Ewing, stage/screen actressBarbara Bel Geddes as family matriarch Miss Ellie and movie Western actor Jim Davis as Ewing patriarch Jock, his last role before his death in 1981. The series won four Emmy Awards, including a 1980 Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series win for Bel Geddes.

  • IS IT GREEK OR DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN?: NEOLIBERALISM, and WINNERS and LOSERS of INTERNATIONAL DEBT CRISES Tayyab Mahmud
    Seattle nivU ersity From the SelectedWorks of Tayyab Mahmud August 30, 2010 IS IT GREEK OR DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN?: NEOLIBERALISM, AND WINNERS AND LOSERS OF INTERNATIONAL DEBT CRISES Tayyab Mahmud Available at: https://works.bepress.com/tayyab_mahmud/2/ IS IT GREEK OR DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN ?: NEOLIBERALISM , AND WINNERS AND LOSERS OF INTERNATIONAL DEBT CRISES Tayyab Mahmud * Abstract: The global financial meltdown and the Great Recession of 2007-09 have brought into sharp relief the uneven distribution of gain and pain in economic crises. The 2009-10 debt crisis of Greece has resulted in a windfall for financial institutions at the expense of tax-payers, a rollback of welfare systems, and impoverishment of the working classes. This result is in tune with a pattern evidenced by the ubiquitous international debt crises of the last three decades, including the Latin American crisis of the 1980s, and the Asian crisis of 1990s. The recurrent international debt crises of the last three decades and the resulting transfers of wealth from the poor to the rich are the products of the neoliberal restructuring of economies that aims to rollback the gains made by the working classes under the Keynesian welfare compromise, and to establish the hegemony of finance capital. These objectives have been facilitated by an extensive refashioning of the U.S. and international regulatory regimes resulting in financialization of the global economy and unbridled international mobility of finance capital. Global financial institutions channeled access global liquidity in ways that created unsustainable international debts, followed by recurrent international debt crises. These crises are managed to displace welfare systems with neoliberal restructuring.

The 2009-2010 debt crisis in Greece resulted in a windfall for financial institutions at the expense of taxpayers, a rollback of welfare systems, and the impoverishment of the working classes. This outcome is consistent with the pattern that has emerged in the international debt crises of the last three decades, including the Latin American crisis during the 1980s and the Asian crisis during the 1990s.

  • Chapter XXXXIII the Ewings of Georgia 399
    CHAPTER XXXXIII THE EWINGS OF GEORGIA – OUR ANCESTORS Chapter XXXVIII includes information on JOHN EWING and his family, John being one of the four sons of William Ewing born about 1709. Names of some of John’s children were located on page 41 of the Census of 1788 taken of BIG SPRING PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Newville, Cumberland Co., PA. Most of the names were found in the 1806 will of John Ewing of Pleasant Township, Fairfield Co., Ohio. Two of the younger sons were on the will but not on the 1788 Census. One, “John, Jr.” claimed by a descendant was on neither list. We compare the two lists for your review at this time: BIG SPRING CENSUS of 1788 NAMED IN 1806 WILL OF JOHN EWING Name Age Birth- Year Name Amount Estate Paid John Ewing 50 1738/9 William Ewing $ 412.48 Sarah Ewing 48 1740 James Duncan (m-Mary) $ 166.24 Jane Ewing 22 1766 Jane Ewing $ 166.24 William Ewing 20 1768 William Herron (m-Rebecca) $ 56.24 Martha Ewing 18 1779 Thomas Ewing Mathew Ewing 16 1772 David Ewing Adm.

Missing from the will are John Ewing, Jr. and James Ewing. It is believed they already had their inheritances as had Martha VanHorn, probably Mathew and Rebecca.
