According to the arrest report, Heldenbrand, 42, stole the money from Simmons and office partner Dr. Ernest J. Gesiotto while she worked as their office manager and bookkeeper. She reportedly forged her name on their business checks and then deposited the funds into her personal banking account. Simmons told police that when he confronted Heldenbrand about the thefts, she admitted that she had committed the crimes over a period of about 1 1/2 years, which is the length of time she was employed there. Simmons reported this to the police Feb. 8. A police investigation revealed well in excess of 10 business checks of Simmons that had been made payable to cash, with Simmons' signature forged on them. They were endorsed "For Deposit Only" to the personal account of Heldenbrand and her husband.

Living Savior Lutheran Church US POSTAGE Living Logos 8740 SW Sagert Street PAID News for the members and friends of Tualatin OR 97062-9116 Living Savior Lutheran Church Vol. 40, Issue 10, October, 2017 ADDRESS SERVICE REQUESTED A Note from the Pastor. A 500-Year Battle? It is October of the year 2017. All of Christendom is aware of what took place in October of 1517, – 500 years ago. The banners marking this year have been posted for several years already in Germany, anticipating the throngs of people who will venture to the birthplace, streets, schools, churches and castles where Martin Luther walked, lived and preached. In some respects, it is odd that we could point to a specific moment as to the start of what has be- come known as the Reformation Era, as Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses (really seeking debate amongst scholars) to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, on October 31, 1517. Truth be told, many things were taking place economically, socially and politically that made the sit- uation very ripe for reform. More than that, many other things “fell into place” in the weeks, months and years that followed that also force us to look back at that day as though it were a pivotal start. We will join that throng with our own Service of Celebration with the congregations of the Pacific and West Hills Cir- cuits of the Northwest District of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. We are the host congregation for this worship service and fellowship event which we have scheduled for October 29, 2017, at 4:00pm.

Let’s go (as in a call to action) 2. Go for it! Russians know how to enjoy themselves—carpe diem might have been a Latin phrase, but it certainly found its currency here in Russia. Whether you’re in a gourmet restaurant, at a private dinner party, a cocktail reception or a night club, in Russia, “Davai!” means you’re game, whether for something new or something classical. After all, discretion is ill-advised, if you’re the guest, and downright rude if you’re the host. Contents Introduction 7 Russian Standard Vodka 9 10 Things 14 You need to know about vodka!
