My family and I moved here 2 1/2 weeks ago from Aurora, Colorado. I say I am originally from Kentucky, because that is where the roots of my family are, but being a minister’s son, I was born in Tennessee and lived in Florida for awhile before my family made its way back to the commonwealth of Kentucky. I have one sister, Whitney, who lives in Oklahoma. My parents divorced after 30 years of marriage and are both remarried to wonderful people. My dad is a Pastor in Lexington, Kentucky and my mom lives in Port Orange, Florida. Growing up in the church, if the doors were open, I was there. I came to know and started to understand what a relationship with Christ is when I was 8 years old. Through the years I have continued to grow learn more and more about that relationship. At age 10 I joined the church and followed Jesus’ example and was baptized. At age 17 I began to realize that God was calling me to minister for Him. A trip to Australia when I was 16 got me thinking about more than the world I saw out my front door. When I told God I wanted to give my life to ministry I told him I would go wherever he sent me. After 15 years of different ministry in North America here I stand giving my testimony and preaching in New Zealand! How amazing it is to see what God can do when you begin to understand your true identity.

  • Historical Inaccuracies and a False Sense of Feminism in Disney’S Pocahontas
    Cyrus 1 Lydia A. Cyrus Dr. Squire ENG 440 Film Analysis Revision Fabricated History and False Feminism: Historical Inaccuracies and a False Sense of Feminism in Disney’s Pocahontas In 1995, following the hugely financial success of The Lion King, which earned Disney close to one billion is revenue, Walt Disney Studios was slated to release a slightly more experimental story (The Lion King). Previously, many of the feature- length films had been based on fairy tales and other fictional stories and characters. However, over a Thanksgiving dinner in 1990 director Mike Gabriel began thinking about the story of Pocahontas (Rebello 15). As the legend goes, Pocahontas was the daughter of a highly respected chief and saved the life of an English settler, John Smith, when her father sought out to kill him. Gabriel began setting to work to create the stage for Disney’s first film featuring historical events and names and hoped to create a strong female lead in Pocahontas. The film would be the thirty-third feature length film from the studio and the first to feature a woman of color in the lead. The project had a lot of pressure to be a financial success after the booming success of The Lion King but also had the added pressure from director Gabriel to get the story right (Rebello 15). The film centers on Pocahontas, the daughter of the powerful Indian chief, Powhatan. When settlers from the Virginia Company arrive their leader John Smith sees it as an adventure and soon he finds himself in the wild and comes across Pocahontas.

  • Telling Our Story with Finding Dory
    Telling Our Story with Finding Dory With the release of the new movie Finding Dory, the pet industry has an opportunity to educate the public on fish keeping, environmental stewardship and the need to protect the aquarium hobby. BY MIKE BOBER Later this month, Finding Dory, a highly anticipated sequel to the movie Finding Nemo, will swim into theaters across the country. While some media have chosen to portray this as a crisis-in-waiting for marine life, the reality is that it is a chance for those of us in the pet industry to engage large numbers of people across multiple generations. It’s up to us to inform them about the many ways the aquatics trade works to protect aquatic life, advance environmental responsibility and partner with hobbyists and newcomers alike to promote responsible fish keeping. Finding Dory follows a sweet and amnesic Paracanthurus hepatus, also known as a palette surgeonfish, royal blue tang or hippo tang, as she seeks to reunite with her family. The concept, colors and characters are sure to be a hit with children of all ages. That’s what has some people worried. In the years since the release of Finding Nemo, there have been several attempts to demonstrate a so-called “Nemo effect” on wild populations of clownfish. Despite the frequency with which it is cited, however, there is no real evidence to support such an effect. While the movie did encourage many families to consider bringing freshwater and marine aquariums into their homes, breeders and sellers of clownfish saw no appreciable rise in demand.

A hurricane roared and raged through the night. And in the middle of the chaos, a cargo ship was sinking down down down to the ocean floor. The ship left hundreds of crates floating on the surface. But as the hurricane thrashed and swirled and knocked them around, the crates also began sinking into the depths. One after another, they were swallowed up by the waves, until only five crates remained. By morning the hurricane was gone. There were no clouds, no ships, no land in sight. There was only calm water and clear skies and those five crates lazily bobbing along an ocean current. Days passed. And then a smudge of green appeared on the horizon. As the crates drifted closer, the soft green shapes slowly sharpened into the hard edges of a wild, rocky island. The first crate rode to shore on a tumbling, rumbling wave and then crashed against the rocks with such force that the whole thing burst apart.
