  • An Apple a Day
    AN APPLE A DAY Materials needed: Two baskets – one labeled “Good Fruit” and one “Bad Fruit.” The ten Bible verses listed below, written out, and cut apart; or print each verse on an apple shaped paper or tape verses to real apples. The verses should be sorted into the baskets. People needed: Leader and two volunteers will be needed to assist in “picking” the apples from each basket. One will read the “Bad Fruit” verses and the other the “Good Fruit” verses. Leader: Our devotion today is based on John 15:16, 17. “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command: Love each other.” You have all heard the saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Eating apples can give us energy and help keep our bodies healthy. Apples are a good fruit. God tells us to be like trees that bear good fruit. But what exactly does that mean? Was God talking about a healthy diet plan? The Bible gives us some “food for thought.” (Pointing to the two baskets) In these two baskets are a number of Bible verses to consider. Let’s pick a few “apples” to see what God would have us learn today. Perhaps we should start by identifying the “bad” fruit. In Genesis, chapter three, we find a story some might label as “one bad apple spoils the whole bunch.” Adam and Eve had their first taste of temptation that brought sin into God’s perfect world.

  • Targeting Civilians in Colombia's Internal Armed
    ‘ L E A V E U S I N P E A C E ’ T LEAVE US IN A ‘ R G E T I N G C I V I L I A N S PEA CE’ I N C O TARG ETING CIVILIANS L O M B I A IN COL OM BIA S INTERNAL ’ S ’ I N T E R ARMED CONFL IC T N A L A R M E D C O N F L I C ‘LEAVE US IN PEACE’ T TARGETING CIVILIANS IN COLOMBIA ’S INTERNAL ARMED CONFLICT “Leave us in peace!” – Targeting civilians in Colombia’s internal armed conflict describes how the lives of millions of Colombians continue to be devastated by a conflict which has now lasted for more than 40 years. It also shows that the government’s claim that the country is marching resolutely towards peace does not reflect the reality of continued A M violence for many Colombians. N E S T Y At the heart of this report are the stories of Indigenous communities I N T decimated by the conflict, of Afro-descendant families expelled from E R their homes, of women raped and of children blown apart by landmines. N A The report also bears witness to the determination and resilience of T I O communities defending their right not to be drawn into the conflict. N A L A blueprint for finding a lasting solution to the crisis in Colombia was put forward by the UN more than 10 years ago. However, the UN’s recommendations have persistently been ignored both by successive Colombian governments and by guerrilla groups.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Die Smashing Pumpkins
    Die Smashing Pumpkins Billy Corgan: Billy Corgan, dessen voller Name William Patrick Corgan Jr. ist, wurde am 17. März 1967 geboren. D’arcy: Überall wo man ihren Namen liest, sieht man nur den Namen D’arcy, aus welchem Grund auch immer. Ihr ganzer Name allerdings ist D’arcy Elizabeth Wretzky, bzw. Wretzky- Brown nach dem sie heiratete. Sie wurde am 1. Mai 1968 in Michigan geboren. James Iha: James Yoshinobu Iha wurde am 26. März 1968 in Chicago, Illinois geboren. Jimmy Chamberlin: Jimmy wurde am 10. Juni 1964 in Joilet, Illinois geboren, und ist somit der Älteste der Band. Geschichte 1987, einige Zeit nachdem Billy Corgan aus Florida zurückkam, traf er James Iha. Sie fingen an, gemeinsam Musik zu machen und hatten auch einige Auftritte nur zu zweit mit einer Drum-Machine. Dies bot die Basis der Smashing Pumpkins. 1988 traf Billy D’arcy Wretzky außerhalb eines Nachtclubs. Sie redeten eine Weile, und er gab ihr darauf seine Nummer, und bot ihr an, als Bassistin für sie zu spielen. Am 10. August spielen sie ihren ersten Auftritt, allerdings noch nicht ganz vollständig, denn noch immer waren sie gezwungen, mit der Drum- Machine zu spielen. Nach einer Empfehlung eines Freundes, kontaktierte Corgan den Schlagzeuger Jimmy Chamberlin, der die Band bei ihrem ersten Auftritt sah, sie aber furchtbar fand. Trotzdem hielt er Billy Corgan aber für einen guten Schreiber mit Potential. Sie fingen nun an mit Jimmy zu spielen, und kurze Zeit später verkündete Billy in einem lokalen Radiosender, Chamberlin sei nun ein offizielles Mitglied der Pumpkins. Am 17. März 1989 spielte die Band erstmals in ihrer vollständigen Aufstellung im Caba- ret Metro, einem bekannten Club in Chicago.

Appendices 3 Abstract: Songs were the means used by the Communist Party – the only party in Communist Romania, 1946-1989 – to ‘educate’ the Romanian people. Through them, Romanians were told what they had to appreciate, how grateful they were supposed to be to the regime for the life they were having, how intelligent and how great their President Ceausescu was and how they had to work harder and harder so that they could be even better Communists. This paper comprises the translation of three songs composed, performed and broadcast in Communist Romania and their analysis from the point of view of communication.

  • Notallcops: Exploring 'Rotten Apple' Narratives in Media Reporting of Lush's 2018 'Spycops' Undercover Policing Campa
    IJCJ&SD 9(4) 2020 ISSN 2202-8005 #Notallcops: Exploring ‘Rotten Apple’ Narratives in Media Reporting of Lush’s 2018 ‘Spycops’ Undercover Policing Campaign Nathan Stephens Griffin Northumbria University, United Kingdom Abstract This article examines the media framing of the 2018 ‘paid to lie’ campaign of Lush, a high-street ethical cosmetics firm. The viral nature of Lush’s intervention into the undercover policing of activism in the United Kingdom highlights the significance of media reporting in the construction of narratives surrounding policing and activism. A qualitative content analysis was undertaken of articles published online in the immediate aftermath of the campaign launch. Based on this analysis, this article argues that the intensely polarised debate following Lush’s ‘paid to lie’ campaign is representative of a wider discursive framing battle that continues to persist today. Within this battle, the state and police establishment promote ‘rotten apple’ explanations of the undercover policing scandal that seek to individualise blame and shirk institutional accountability (Punch 2003). This is significant, as identifying systemic dimensions of the ‘spycops’ scandal is a key focus for activists involved in the ongoing Undercover Policing Inquiry (Schlembach 2016). Keywords Undercover policing; media; activism; rotten apples. Please cite this article as: Stephens Griffin N (2020) #Notallcops: Exploring ‘rotten apple’ narratives in media reporting of Lush’s 2018 ‘spycops’ undercover policing campaign.
