    LES MISERABLES Written by William Nicholson Alain Boublil, Claude- Michel Schönberg and Herbert Kretzmer Adapted from the Stage Musical "Les Misérables" Based on the novel by Victor Hugo May 20, 2012 BLACK SCREEN SUPERIMPOSE CAPTION: The year is 1815. The French revolution is a distant memory. Napoleon has been defeated. France is ruled by a King again. A1 EXT. TOULON PORT - DAY A1 RISE UP out of the iron-grey surface of the ocean, seething in the wind, towards the shore. Winter rain slices the air. Ahead, the port of Toulon, home of the French navy. A forest of tall masted warships. The great ships heave at anchor, the wind whipping their rigging. Through the sea spray we see the great ribs of warships under construction, and warships being refitted. SUPERIMPOSE CAPTION: Toulon Home port of the French navy 1 EXT. TOULON DOCK - DAY 1 Storm-lashed sea and driving rain. A great wave rises up and hammers down. As it recedes we see the figures of men heaving on great ropes, the sea water streaming down over their faces. The harsh storm light catches glints of metal: these men are CONVICTS, chained by manacles, heads shaved, wearing red shirts with prison numbers crudely stitched onto them. Now we see that the ropes run up to a ship that is being hauled ashore - a storm-damaged man-of-war, its masts broken, rising and falling on the surge. As yet another great wave rolls over the convicts, we follow the straining ropes down into the base of the slipway, and find the convict JEAN VALJEAN, up to his waist in water, chained by two sets of manacles, as the rain and spray and wind scream round him.

Ignoring it, I settled back with the morning paper when the doorbell rang. I hobbled on crutches across the living room floor and peeked through the window. Parked outside was a full-sized black Mercedes, definitely the first of its kind to grace the curb in front of our humble Cape Cod in Queens. Unfastening the chain safety lock, I opened the door. On the stoop stood a stately woman dressed in black leather. She was looking back toward the Mercedes where an imposing dark- haired man, wearing a long wool coat, stood with his arms folded high on his chest. I had no idea who this woman was, or what she wanted. In one arm she clutched a colorful tote bag.

    July 14, 2019 WORSHIPWORSHIP FifthThird Sunday Sunday after of Pentecost Easter Eleven o’clock July 14, 2019 Preparation for Worship Every time you close another door— be it the door of immediate satisfaction, the door of distracting entertainment, the door of busyness, the door of guilt and worry, or the door of self-rejection— you commit yourself to go deeper into your heart and thus deeper into the heart of God. This is a movement toward full incarnation. It leads you to become what you already are— a child of God; it lets you embody more and more the truth of your being. It makes you claim the God within you. ~ Henri J. M. Nouwen Prelude Contemplation on “Julio” by David Hurd (1983) Arr. by Matthew Corl Lawrence P.

Board and audience self- introductions followed. Agenda Overview Dave Iseminger, ERB Division Director, provided an overview of the agenda. Legislative Update Dave Iseminger, ERB Division Director: I'm going to walk through the legislative process and describe what executive agencies do to analyze bills. I think it helps the public to realize the amount of work that agency staff are doing on these bills. Slide 2: At the Health Care Authority (HCA) when a bill comes in, our central policy team works to divide bills among the different divisions of this agency. The Employees and Retirees Benefits (ERB) Division is the Division I oversee. We are designated a subset of all the bills being reviewed by the agency. We first do a high-level review to identify what might have a high impact or a low impact. In general, the difference between a high impact and a low impact is the fiscal impacts. If there is any fiscal impact, regardless of the amount, it's deemed a 1 high impact. If it's going to require rule making changes, then it would also qualify as high impact.

    FROM PROFESSIONAL FUNCTIONING TO PERSONAL CONFESSION Henri J.M. Nouwen’s contribution to the contemporary spirituality of pastoral care Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Theologischen Fakultät der Bayerischen Julius-Maximilian-Universität Würzburg vorgelegt von P. Jose Thomas Karickal msfs Aus Paravanthuruth, Kerala, Indien am 20.10.06 Referent: Professor Dr. Rolf Zerfaß Co-referent: Professor Dr. Erich Garhammer Wintersemester 2006/2007 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT A quick flash back into my past opens me to the realization that life is a journey in the true sense of the word. A phase in this journey took me to Germany with the view of a doctoral study in Theology. I had to finalise the area of the specialization after coming here and after analysing the situation and the possibilities. The plan of God and the providence of God in my life is somehow hidden or veiled but a true blessing in retrospect. I am grateful to my parents, brothers and sisters for the first phase of my enriching and unforgettable life and their continued love and support. My gratitude goes to my Congregation and all the members with whom I had to do, especially Fr. Mani Panthalany, the then provincial of the Visakhapatnam province to which I belong for the possibility of these studies and the encouragement given to me. My special esteem and gratitude goes to Professor Rolf Zerfass as well who without hesitation took me as his ‘Doctorand’ and guided and helped me from the selection of the topic to the completion of this project. His popularity and busy schedule did not mar a friendly relationship and a fatherly care.
