    FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH JANUARY 2019 Hello First Baptist Family, I hope and pray all of you had a great holiday season and your hearts were joyed as you gathered with friends and family and were able to reflect on the true meaning of the season: the coming of Christ to save his people form their sins (Matthew 1:21). As you know, we have spent the last several months walking through our newly adopted church motto LOVE. GROW. COMMIT. GO. I hope that you have enjoyed a deeper look into this mission statement and how it relates specifically to our church. I have personally been greatly encouraged to see many of you putting in to action what we have discussed and look forward to seeing what else the Lord might do both through and for us. To that end, we will look finally at the last word LOVE. Although it is first in sequence, I have chosen to focus on it last because it encompasses and grounds all the rest. Peter writes to us in Scripture, “Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.” (1 Peter 4:8). Love for God and love for others really is the foundation for all we do as individuals and as a church. So, in this article, let’s focus on what it means to love God. The reality is that for you and me – love for God and love for others is not something that comes naturally to us. Sure, we may find it easier to love those who are good, kind, and provide for us but surely Biblical love calls us to love more than just loving those who treat us well.

    Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP) We are back with a very late newsletter this week due almost entirely to lab report related delays. However, there is still a lot to discuss in this week's issue, including all of the news with Sting's retirement, upcoming cards, the “conclusion” to the Gawker trial, which is really only the beginning – and much more in the Pro-Wres Digest with Ben Carass. Plus, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at what may very well have been the best match of the year up until this point, discussion of WWE aesthetics, ROH, and must see BASARA. Ben also looks at last week's edition of RAW, Roadblock, and Mid-South from '82 with the infamous airing of the first Kamala vignette on Mid-South TV through 2016 eyes! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for March 13th – March 19th. Ben Carass. [EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was left unedited and was intended to have been posted on March 20th, as such, some of the information may be out of date, and further information may be available for some stories.] TMZ broke the story on 17/3 that Steve “Sting” Borden's wrestling career is officially over, with the typically classy headline, “Sting Retiring from Wrestling...Neck's Too Jacked Up,” - quality journalism. Sting had not wrestled since facing Seth Rollins for the WWE title at Night of Champions on September 20th 2015 in a match where he suffered a neck injury while taking a Powerbomb into the turnbuckle.

The parcel is triangular in shape and is bound by Federal Way and two segments of Victory Road. The site is located within the Central Bench Planning Area. The applicant is proposing to construct a self-storage facility consisting of 13 buildings with one office building and a tower element. The buildings are proposed to be 12-feet in height and have a modern architectural design theme. The main office to the facility is centrally located on the site on Victory Road. Special considerations to take into account regarding the building are Federal Way is classified as a gateway street and as a Commercial/Mixed Use Designation within the Citywide Design Review Standards and Guidelines. The building design has a relatively horizontal and linear design form. In an effort to provide shadow relief the applicant has proposed to install CMU wall panel treatments that include windows and black metal awnings on Federal Way and Victory Road. Overall, the proposed design will contain appropriate colors and materials, fenestration, and modulation. Each of these elements will assist to break up the massing of the structure, provide an additional depth of character through shading and relief and provide architectural design interest to the buildings.

(Kleinfelder) has reviewed the comments received from Graeme Hodgson on 07 January 2017 regarding the above referenced report relating to flare emissions testing (Report). To respond to those comments and to aid in the public’s further understanding of the Report we offer the following information. The commenter stated that a commitment had been made regarding the flare destruction efficiency in the stack of 99.9 % and referenced a Tullamarine Landfill Community Consultation Group meeting of 26 February 2014. The flare data shows the destruction efficiency of the flare for methane is 99.995 % and for average (mass weighted) VOCs is 99.9 % (Table 4.6 of the Report). The commenter notes that the emission results shown in the Report from the 2016 sampling are more comprehensive (include a wider range of chemicals) and show different concentration readings than the prior testing completed in 2015. This is true, the 2016 sampling was undertaken using different sampling and analysis methods in an effort to provide a better picture of the flare operations to the public. We also observed the differences from the past results but cannot draw any direct conclusions on the cause of that variation.

    SECTION E TRANSPORTATION / INFRASTRUCTURE TEXT AMENDMENT (Chapter VI) (Unless otherwise noted, all of the following text is new and, if approved, will be incorporated into Chapter VI of the 2002 Comprehensive Plan in the sections as specified in the boxes. Page numbers refer to the existing Plan.) Page 52, Paragraph 2.a. • Add the following roadways to the arterial list: - Chinden Blvd./Highway 20-26 - McMillan Road, east of Ten Mile Road - Star Road, between Ustick Road and Chinden Blvd. • Arterial Planning in North Meridian There are two state highways in the North Meridian Area that have a significant influence on the arterial system and deserve special attention: 1. State Highway 20-26 (Chinden Blvd.). This highway serves as the north boundary of the City’s Area of Impact east of Linder Road and bisects the Area of Impact west of Linder Road. It is expected to be five to seven lanes wide at build-out of the city. It separates Meridian’s distinctly urban growth patterns from the City of Eagle, with its low-density, semi-rural character. The City of Meridian will establish ordinances and development standards that preserve the highway as a major regional transportation facility, connecting the cities of Caldwell, Nampa, Star, Meridian, Eagle and Boise. The City believes this roadway needs to be protected from multiple access points and preserved as a high capacity connector. The City supports beautification and appropriate sound mitigation measures along the SH20-26 corridor. 2. State Highway 16 (future extension). The extension of State Highway 16 from State Highway 44 to I-84 is a critical step to providing regional mobility for citizens from north Ada County and Gem County to I-84 and south Ada County.

  • Bad Jews Written by Joshua Harmon Directed by Matt Shakman
    BAD JEWS WRITTEN BY JOSHUA HARMON DIRECTED BY MATT SHAKMAN OPENS TONIGHT (JUNE 17, 2015) IN THE GIL CATES THEATER AT THE GEFFEN PLAYHOUSE LOS ANGELES (June 17, 2015) – The Geffen Playhouse production of Bad Jews by Joshua Harmon, directed by Matt Shakman who is the artistic director of the Black Dahlia Theatre, a Geffen playhouse alumni (Good People, Wait Until Dark) and a noted television director (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Mad Men) opens tonight in the Gil Cates Theater at the Geffen Playhouse and runs through July 19, 2015. The production features Ari Brand (Broadway The Neil Simon Plays; Off-Broadway My Name is Asher Lev), Molly Ephraim (ABC’s Last Man Standing, Broadway Into the Woods, Fiddler on the Roof; film Paranormal Activity), Lili Fuller (Hulu’s Complete Works) and Raviv Ullman (Off- Broadway Sticks and Bones, title character in Disney’s Phil of the Future). In Bad Jews, Daphna Feygenbaum swears she is the most devout Jew in her family. When her less observant cousin arrives to claim a treasured family heirloom and religious symbol from their late Grandfather, a Holocaust survivor, a devastating and devastatingly funny battle of Old Testament proportions ignites. The Washington Post said, “’Bad Jews is, for lovers of dramatic organisms truly alive on a stage, great fun: red-meat theater, marinated in fearlessness.” The New York Post called Bad Jews, “Delicious, nasty fun.” The New York Times said Bad Jews is, “The best comedy of the season … crackles with energy. On paper, the flagrantly devout Daphna would seem to be the clear victor, but I suspect the question of who’s the good Jew and who’s the bad Jew — can a better Jew be a worse person? — might well be a question that a dozen Talmudic scholars could argue over for a good long time.” Harmon said, “I grew up hearing survivors speak, and it’s a profound experience.
