Date walked: 24/11/2018
Time taken: 6.15
Distance: 15.5 km
Ascent: 1120mRegister or Login free to be able to rate and comment on reports (as well as access 1:25000 mapping).
Looking at the map there's a bunch of hills we both needed to do within easy reach of each other from the top of Wrynose Pass, all are accessible within the hours of daylight we get at this time of year and hopefully the Wrynose and Hardknott passes would be quieter than in the summer months therefore assuring us a parking spot.
A Travelodge weekend this time, the Kendal one on the A591.
We set off from our lodgings in reasonable time on Saturday morning to make sure we could get a spot at the top of Wrynose, we succeeded, a prime spot just on the summit where the path to Red Tarn starts, there were no other cars around so the early-ish start paid off.
There was a very chilly breeze as we readied for the off but the weather was looking promising, the sky was clearing, there were a few patches of blue and the clouds were well off the mountains.
Pike o' Blisco was our first intended, a catch up for Denise, the path from the top of Wrynose Pass is excellent and gave us the opportunity to cover the distance at a reasonable pace. We reached Red Tarn in good time and turned right just beyond on another well trodden path up Pike o' Blisco, it's steep in parts but height is gained quickly and the summit is reached without too much effort.
The views were good, even though there was a bit of cloud cover, after the obligatory photo stop we set off back to Red Tarn and the climb up Cold Pike.

Bow Fell and the Band
The main path to the Crinkles was the start of our ascent of Cold Pike, after a few hundred meters we went off piste and took a beeline for the summit, after a bit of stumbling around we joined a path that's well used, probably one we'd have found easier if we'd have stayed on the Crinkles path a bit longer, ah well, there's now't like a bit of adventure.
The summit was reached, a mutual new one, but there's cairns on two tops up here so we went to the other cairn to make sure.

Swirl How, Great Carrs
A chilly breeze kept us from staying longer on the top, a pity because it's a good viewpoint, so photo's were taken, a quick snack, then we set off back down to the car.
View from below Cold Pike on the way down
We decided not to stop at the car, the temptation to stay too long was ignored, we crossed the road and made our way up Wet Side Edge, not a name to inspire confidence in conditions underfoot, as it turned out it's a good path, pitched in places and largely dry.
Grey Friar was next, another new one for us both.
Looking back, to the Scafells, Crinkles and Bowfell
It took longer than I was hoping to get to the summit, I'm not sure why, probably taking too many photos but we arrived at the summit, another one with two high points and two cairns so, again, we went to both of them.
T'other cairn, Scafells behind
This is another great view point, well worth getting to. We decided to stop and have lunch up here, that chilly breeze was still bugging us so we spent a bit of time looking for a bit of shelter and eventually found it in the rocks near the mini Matterhorn boulder.
Lunch was welcome and consumed then we set off for Swirl How, a repeat for us both, we had thought of including Wetherlam to-day but we decided not to bother once we'd arrived on Swirl How, the distance was probably just doable in the time we had left but we wanted to take advantage of the weather and take our time without rushing about, it was 2pm so we turned our backs on Wetherlam and headed for Great Carrs.
Views from memorial
Great Carrs was another repeat, we'd come from The Old Man the last time we were up here so the trip back to the car was on unfamiliar ground, as it turned out we both decided that our decision not to include Wetherlam was a good one.
We had to go down there after Wetherlam and then back up to the car

Panorama from Great Carrs
Eastern weather, looks a bit ominous
We arrived back at the car at 3:45, the light was lowering, I reckon we'd have struggled to get back without the use of our head torches.
We had a really good day out, Wetherlam is on the agenda soon, one of the few "catch ups" left for Denise to do that can be done on a day trip from home, as a friend of ours would say "They're not going knock those mountains down, you know, why rush 'em?" Good point, but we've got to the stage where the objective has become a bit of an obsession, the sense of achievement is growing, mountain by mountain

We tend to look at both MWIS and the Met Office and average the forecasts out, not very scientific but it works, somehow they both got the chilly wind right however High Tove and Armboth are nice viewpoints for the bigger fells around, a bit on the soggy side from memory.
Catstye Cam will be our last one, starting on Birkhouse Moor and doing the horseshoe of ridges, we live close enough to pick and choose the weather, we're aiming for late spring/early summer next year

I found wet side edge a super route off the fells a few years back, sometimes names can give a very wrong Impression. You certainly seem to be homing in on your target at quite a pace, good choice of Catstyecam, it's a superb top
Throughout the day the light was changing the look of the hillsides, it was really quite interesting, I kept saying to Denise "hang on a mo, I'll have to get a shot of that" the colours were forever changing.
Yes, it's strange how focussed you become when the goal is in sight, just 18 to do to get us both on an even keel then the last one
trailmasher wrote:Well done the pair of you with another set of fine hills done You did right with leaving out Wetherlam as the Fallwalker and I chose that way a couple of years ago with a less than good descent down from Birk Fell Man and then a hard slog up to the Three Shire Stone parking area via Rough Crags and High End from Greenburn Beck on a brutally hot day Catstye Cam a good choice of hill to finish on
I allowed about 6.5 hrs for this route, by the time we'd arrived on Swirl How we'd been going for 4.75 hrs so a trip over Wetherlam was cutting it a bit fine, we might repeat this and include Wetherlam, next summer, just to see how long it does take.
I like the look of Catstye Cam, we've been on Helvellyn loads of times and I don't know why we've missed Catstye Cam, maybe we've always been destined to do it this way, Helvellyn was my first Wainwright, it now seems fitting-----------, weird

Silver Slipper’s new owners say they need new hotel
Published: June 14,2012
BAY ST. LOUIS — The new owners of the Silver Slipper Casino in Hancock County have told county officials that construction of a new hotel is a priority.
In April, Las Vegas-based Full House Resorts purchased the Slipper for $70 million in a cash and financing deal.
The Silver Slipper is one of the few Mississippi casinos without a hotel.
The Sea Coast Echo reports Full House chairman Andre Milliou says that said that limits the Silver Slipper’s customer base to about a one-hour radius.
“We’re going to work very closely with (casino manager John Ferrucci) to expedite that,” Milliou said. “I think we can grow in that particular location and a hotel will help us with that.”
The site has room to add a hotel and plans were in place to build a hotel before the recession.
Milliou said Full House would need to evaluate how big that hotel should be, but hotels at other Full House properties boast occupancy rates of 90 percent or better year-round.
Full House is a small, publicly traded company that owns or operates casinos in Nevada, New Mexico and Indiana.
Supervisor Steve Seymour asked if a marina would be part of the plans. Milliou said it could be a possibility, but nothing is planned now.

Nathaniel Clyne is set to play tomorrow
Raheem Sterling will also be handed a recall after being left out of the starting line-up for the win over Estonia last month after complaining of feeling “tired” in training on the eve of the game.
Southampton defender Clyne looks poised to replace former team-mate Calum Chambers at right-back as Hodgson seeks to use his whole squad.
Clyne, 23, was included in the party for the Euro 2016 qualifier with Slovenia at Wembley tomorrow and the friendly with Scotland at Celtic Park next Tuesday and will now seek to seize his opportunity and establish a new order.
The shape of things to come looks likely to be moulded by Hodgson as it became clear the England players would support any move from the FA to hand the coach an extension to his contract, which would see him remain in charge beyond Euro 2016.
Hodgson’s existing deal expires after the tournament and Everton defender Leighton Baines said the squad would be delighted if he signed a new one.
Baines said: “He has a lot of knowledge about football. We would be really happy if he extended his deal.”

BBC iPlayer will not be available on Xbox One at launch, Microsoft has revealed.
iPlayer has been available on Xbox 360 since March 2012, and was one of the few apps that did not require an Xbox Live Gold subscription.
Microsoft has yet to confirm reasons for iPlayer's removal on Xbox One but, in a statement provided to VideoGamer.com this morning, told fans to "stay tuned" for future announcements.
"At launch Xbox One will have more apps available than when we launched app experience on Xbox 360," said a Microsoft spokesperson. "We are working on a lot of great new and existing entertainment partnerships and will be regularly bringing new apps to Xbox One even faster than we were able to bring to Xbox 360. Stay tuned."
Microsoft announced the full list of apps coming to Xbox One between launch and spring 2014 earlier today.

- First, our algorithms collected as much information available about these products from trusted sources.
- We employed both Artificial Intelligence and large data volume to validate all collected information.
- Then our AI ranked them on their quality-to-price ratio using industry-standard criteria that let us pick the best Small Keyboard Piano currently on the market!
- Brand Value: What happens when you go for a not-so-reputable brand just because the price seems cheap? Well, the chance of getting a short-lasting product goes higher. That’s because the renowned brands have a reputation to maintain, others don’t.
- Features: You don’t need heaps of features, but useful ones. We look at the features that matter and choose the top Small Keyboard Piano based on that.
- Specifications: Numbers always help you measure the quality of a product in a quantitative way. We try to find products of higher specifications, but with the right balance.
- Customer Ratings: The hundreds of customers using the Small Keyboard Piano before you won’t say wrong, would they? Better ratings mean better service experienced by a good number of people.
- Customer Reviews: Like ratings, customer reviews give you actual and trustworthy information, coming from real-world consumers about the Small Keyboard Piano they used.
- Seller Rank: Now, this is interesting! You don’t just need a good Small Keyboard Piano, you need a product that is trendy and growing in sales. It serves two objectives. Firstly, the growing number of users indicates the product is good. Secondly, the manufacturers will hopefully provide better quality and after-sales service because of that growing number.
- Value For The Money: They say you get what you pay for. Cheap isn’t always good. But that doesn’t mean splashing tons of money on a flashy but underserving product is good either. We try to measure how much value for the money you can get from your Small Keyboard Piano before putting them on the list.
- Durability: Durability and reliability go hand to hand. A robust and durable Small Keyboard Piano will serve you for months and years to come.
- Availability: Products come and go, new products take the place of the old ones. Probably some new features were added, some necessary modifications were done. What’s the point of using a supposedly good Small Keyboard Piano if that’s no longer continued by the manufacturer? We try to feature products that are up-to-date and sold by at least one reliable seller, if not several.
- Negative Ratings: Yes, we take that into consideration too! When we pick the top rated Small Keyboard Piano on the market, the products that got mostly negative ratings get filtered and discarded.

Das Pop’s latest tune “Underground” was featured on the rejected Fabriclive mix that Justice did not so long ago. “Underground” has a warming late 80s/early 90s vibe to it and just sounds so soothing, so simple. Take a listen to " Fool fo Love" live at Studio Brussels.

From New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Cassandra Clare comes an exciting new short story collection that follows Jem Carstairs as he travels through the many Shadow Markets around the world. Ghosts of the Shadow Market is a Shadowhunters novel.
The Shadow Market is a meeting point for faeries, werewolves, warlocks, and vampires. There, the Downworlders buy and sell magical objects, make dark bargains, and whisper secrets they do not want the Nephilim to know. Through two centuries, however, there has been a frequent visitor to the Shadow Market from the City of Bones, the very heart of the Shadowhunters’ world. As a Silent Brother, Brother Zachariah is a sworn keeper of the laws and lore of the Nephilim. But once he was a Shadowhunter called Jem Carstairs, and his love, then and always, is the warlock Tessa Gray. And Jem is searching through the Shadow Markets, in many different cities over long years, for a relic from his past.
Follow Jem and see, against the backdrop of the Shadow Market’s dark dealings and festival, Anna Lightwood’s doomed romance, Matthew Fairchild’s great sin, and Tessa Gray as she is plunged into a world war. Valentine Morgenstern buys a soul at the Market and a young Jace Wayland’s soul finds safe harbor. In the Market is hidden a lost heir and a beloved ghost, and no one can save you once you have traded away your heart. Not even Brother Zachariah.

Toyota motors are famously known for its services in vehicles and automobiles. But for the first time in the history it came up with the idea of new smart city.
On Tuesday 27th April 2021, Toyota Motor Corporation laid the foundation of a new Smart City. At the base of snowcapped Mount Fuji in Japan, Toyota Motor Corporation started construction on a 175-acre smart city about 62 miles from Tokyo, the company announced construction to be started this week.
The city is to be called “Woven City” because of the smart innovations which are going to be a part of this modern world. This city is supposed to serve as a testing ground for robots, smart homes, and artificial intelligence technology. Initially it will be home for around 360 people including inventors, senior citizens, and families of small children will test its functionalities. Later on, it will accommodate some 2,000 inhabitants. By the middle of this decade the Toyota Woven City will cover ninety acres and will become a reality.
Toyota announced a $550 million deal to purchase Lyft Inc.’s self-driving operation to enhance its autonomous technology. According to the firm, within five years, people could live in smart homes with in-home robotics systems to help with basic activities and sensor-based artificial intelligence to track health and take care of other basic needs.
Smart homes will be powered by renewable energy such as photovoltaic or hydrogen cells. Photovoltaic panels will be mounted on the roofs of the buildings. In addition, the buildings infrastructure would be made of recyclable materials like timber, resulting in a lower carbon footprint. All buildings will be outfitted with the most cutting-edge home automation and artificial intelligence technology. Toyota says it wants to introduce natural vegetation and hydroponics, a way of growing plants without soil, into the region.
In an online video Toyoda, grandson of the carmaker’s founder, said It’s a new chapter in our story and in our industry. A city is basically distinguished by a simple residential development and its approach to mobility. The pedestrians will be prioritized in this city of future. This smart city will be built on three different forms of technology that will form an “Organic Grid Pattern” according to Toyota.
The first, which includes green areas, will serve as a guide for pedestrians who wish to move or walk around the area. Following that, residents who wish to use electric mobility devices such as bicycles, scooters, or scooters will have access to a separate lane. Thirdly, a kind of track would be built for the exclusive use of self-driving cars. This can be used for both freight equipment and shipping of goods. Along with that there will be an underground road. In this case, the e-Palette model, a self-driving microbus developed by Toyota, will be used throughout the city.
James Kuffner, Toyota’s chief digital officer and head of Woven Planet, said in a briefing with reporters. Woven City will allow us to try out different city infrastructure. If cars and cities can communicate with each other in a smart way, I think we can build safer systems.

A 71-year-old retired electrician is at the centre of a legal battle after coming forward with more than 200 hitherto unknown paintings by Pablo Picasso, a French newspaper reported Monday. Experts who have examined the collection have estimated it could be worth some 60 million euros (80 million dollars), Liberation reported.
Pierre Le Guennec wrote to Claude Picasso, the artist's son and the administrator of his estate, in a bid to get the canvases authenticated, and the two finally met in September. Le Guennec said he had worked installing alarm sytems at a number of Picasso's residences, including a villa in Cannes in the south of France, during the last three years of Picasso's life -- he died in 1973, AFP reports.
Administrators of the Picasso estate have filed a case for alleged illegal receipt of the works of art.
The artist's son, Claude Picasso has dismissed Mr Le Guennec's claim that he could have received the paintings as gifts, insisting his father would not have given such a large quantity of works to anyone.
He told Liberation: "That doesn't stand up. These works were part of his life", according to ITN.

US testing electromagnetic warheads which are "game-changers"
Days after North Korea’s latest missile test failed, the US Office of Naval Research published a video which captured the explosive guns in action on YouTube.
Cannons are filmed blasting away in countless directions as fiery smoke crosses the sky.
Rex Tillerson announces aggressive approach towards North Korea
The Naval Research Office described the railgun “as a true warfighter game changer”.
The Office added: “Using its extreme speed on impact, the kinetic energy warhead eliminates the hazards of high explosives in the ship and unexploded ordnance on the battlefield.”
On Tuesday, Pyongyang tried to launch four missiles from near Eastern Motoyama, according to South Korea's ministry of defence.
The failed test followed the warnings from Choe Myong Nam, deputy ambassador at the North Korean mission to the United Nations in Geneva who warned the hermit kingdom are “prioritising” the development of inter-continental ballistic missiles (ICBM), capable of striking the US.
Describing the project in 2014, Former Rear Admiral Matt Klunder, the then chief of Naval Research, reportedly said: “[It] will give our adversaries a huge moment of pause to go: ‘Do I even want to go engage a naval ship?
“Frankly, we think it might be the right time for them to know what we’ve been doing behind closed doors in a 'Star Wars' fashion. It’s now reality. It’s not science fiction. It’s real and you can look at it.”
Robert Freeman, a spokesman for the Office of Naval Research told US News and World Report that the electromagnetic cannon could “tear through sheets of metal” whilst transforming a ship’s ammunition needs.
He added: “Our need to carry gunpowder with is a big vulnerability to our ships. A rail gun could eliminate that need.”
The weapons are capable of obliterating heavily armoured targets
The weapons are capable of obliterating heavily armoured targets at a range of up to 126 miles and the astonishing speed of 4,500mph.
Referred to as “Star Wars technology” the missiles are fuelled solely by electricity which will reduce a ship’s “vulnerability”.

Going to see Hari Om is like taking a trip to India
I was so happy to learn that Hari Om will finally be theatrically released in 2007. I saw this film three years ago at the Vancouver International film Festival and have been waiting for it's release ever since so I could send everyone I know to see it. It's like taking a trip to India....colorful, magical, thought provoking. Aside from one rather strange Hollywood style auto rickshaw chase scene this movie is very realistic. This is not a Bollywood style song and dance movie but it does have drama and romance and humor. The interactions between the Indian taxi driver and the french tourist are a good reflection on the fundamental differences between Eastern and Western life styles and philosophy. The characters are a little broadly drawn but the acting was very good. Visually this movie is a treat as you really do get a sense of what driving through Rajasthan is like...dreamlike. Sometimes it's hard to believe everything you are seeing and experiencing is real...the movie has that same quality. Great soundtrack too!

Health programs, social services programs in region face deep cuts
The state's community health centers, school-based health centers and Birth to Three program are among the victims of the massive budget-cutting plan outlined by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy.
The proposal would cut funding to the state Department of Public Health by roughly $9.4 million in the first year of the two-year plan and about $11.2 million in the second year. The Department of Social Services would lose about $48.3 million in the first year and $82.9 million in the second. Other departments to receive large cuts include the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and the Department of Children and Families.
The depth of the cuts left many area advocates reeling, including Barbara Edinberg, director of research for the Bridgeport Child Advocacy Coalition. "I don't think there's anything that's been untouched," she said. "This is devastating."
Edinberg said she was particularly upset by the reductions to programs that help the state's economically vulnerable residents. For instance, as part of the DSS cuts, the Malloy administration is limiting eligibility in the Medicaid for Low-Income Adults program, which provides health coverage for poor adults without children. Starting July 1, 2012, the program would be limited to those with assets below $25,000. Such a limit hadn't been imposed before.
Other elements of the proposal that concerned Edinberg included the closing of the state-operated Birth to Three program, which aims to identify and assist young children with developmental issues. She was also distressed by the decision to cut $2.6 million both years from the state's Community Health Center program, which provides medical help to the poor and uninsured. The state provides 7 percent of the funds for 13 of the state's 14 community health centers, including Southwest Community Health Center and Optimus Health Care, both in Bridgeport.
Cuts like these are especially alarming because they ultimately will affect the state's poorest residents, Edinberg said. "We know cuts need to be made, but we hope they will be made keeping children and families in mind," she said.
Kathy Yacavone, president and chief executive officer of Southwest Community Health Center, said the cuts will limit access to care and send more low-income folks to emergency rooms, which could ultimately end up costing the state more money.
"It's penny-wise and pound-foolish," she said.
Southwest and Optimus will be hit twice under the plan. Both agencies operate school-based health centers in Bridgeport. Under the budget-balancing plan, school-based health centers will have their state funding cut by about $1.3 million in the first year and $1.35 million in the second year.
The announcement comes the same week that seven agencies in the state -- including Optimus and Southwest -- received about $2 million in federal grant money for capital improvements to the school-based health centers they manage.
Despite that influx of cash, Yacavone said the state cuts will still hurt. The federal money is only for things like equipment purchases and facility improvements, and can't be used to fund staffing.
Many social service and health advocates said they are still evaluating the full impact of the budget decreases. Connecticut Hospital Association spokeswoman Patty Charvat said some of the biggest concerns were the limitations put on the Medicaid for Low-Income Adults program, as well as closing of the DSS's regional offices in Stamford and Middletown. Other worries were the elimination of all 20 detoxification beds and all 60 male rehabilitation beds at Connecticut Valley Hospital in Middletown.
"I think the budget plan is very painful to everyone in Connecticut," Charvat said. "These are some tough choices the governor had to make."

Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) President Dorval R. Carter Jr. announced the CTA is adding more than 600 new high-definition security cameras to its rail system — upgrades that will modernize the camera system and make it entirely high-definition.
The new HD cameras, along with lighting improvements along the Green Line, kick off the first of several phases of the Safe & Secure program, a multi-faceted effort announced by Mayor Emanuel in 2018 to increase safety across the CTA system and provide a more secure, comfortable traveling experience.
Safe & Secure will add 1,000 new cameras and upgrade more than 3,800 older-model cameras throughout the system. Work has begun on the $3.5 million first phase of the program, which will replace older, standard-definition cameras at 20 subway stations with HD cameras. More than 600 cameras will be upgraded in the Red and Blue line subways; the O’Hare, Jefferson Park, Belmont, and Logan Square stations along the Blue Line O’Hare Branch; and at the Clark/Lake station in the Loop. Additionally, more than 50 new cameras will be added to these stations.
Also, multiple stations along the Green Line will receive new and upgraded LED lighting.
Future phases of Safe & Secure, a five-year program, will include new lighting, station repairs, and other improvements to enhance safety at all 146 CTA rail stations. CTA will also install new cameras at more than 100 CTA bus turnaround locations and video monitors will be added to all CTA rail stations to aid personnel in monitoring station and customer activity.
Under Mayor Emanuel, CTA’s security camera network has more than doubled in size since 2011. The cameras, found at every rail station and on every bus and train, have been an important tool to help Chicago police identify crime suspects and detect crime patterns. All of CTA’s buses and trains have multiple cameras.
Additionally, CTA has worked closely with the Chicago Police Department’s Public Transportation Unit to strengthen and deploy strategies to fight crime that include expanded police patrols, rail saturation missions, and undercover operations. Since June 2011, CTA cameras have aided police in the investigation, arrest, and charging of more than 1,300 individuals.
CTA’s Safe and Secure is funded by a new, innovative fee on ride-hailing services championed by Mayor Emanuel, the first such fee in the country dedicated to public transportation improvements.

Bernard Kerr Refused Entry to Anaheim 1 SX Race
I think he was doomed once it came to light that he had never raced a dirtbike race in his entire life. A bit of on oversight on Kerr's behalf to have not even entered and raced a few local races over the last few years. Letting European GP riders race Supercross without going through the Supercross Futures program is one thing, but letting in a guy who has never even lined up on a start gate before is something else and I think the AMA drew the line there by not letting him ride. I supported his efforts but I think he missed a pretty big detail on this one.

Germination and sugar content alteration in maize grain caused by Fusarium contamination42-44Views:60
Healthy and Fusarium affected ears were collected in Fészerlak, Somogy County at the end of vegetation cycle of maize (25-30 August). Each pattern contains 25-25 ears. We compared the samples on the basis of visual image of Fusarium affection. The ears were shelled and two 0,5 kg samples were formed: healthy and Fusarium contaminated. After surface sterilisation the uniform sized seeds were soaked in sterile distilled water for 24 hours and there were germinated for 7 days. The α-amylase activity was measured with Phadebas- α-amylase test. Seeds were extracted one by one three times under reflux using 10 cm3 boiling water for 15 minutes. During our investigation germinating activity was detected to measure glucose, fructose, sucrose content and α-amylase activity. In the first seven days of germination the highest values were detected in control seeds followed by the affected seeds. Our results clearly show that stress conditions applied altered not only the saccharide content but decreased their germinating activity as well in the case of maize grain.

Literacy Connexus director to receive Strickland Award. Texans Care for Children named Lester Meriwether, Literacy Connexus executive director, as a recipient of the 2014 Phil Strickland Founder’s Award. Texans Care for Children named Lester Meriwether, Literacy Connexus executive director, as a recipient of the 2014 Phil Strickland Founder’s Award. Texans Care for Children presents the award, named in honor of the longtime director of the Texas Baptist Christian Life Commission, to individuals or organizations dedicated to improving the lives of Texas families. In 2004, Meriwether founded Literacy Connexus, a nonprofit ministry primarily supported by the Baptist General Convention of Texas and the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. Ten years later, hundreds of Literacy Connexus-trained English-as-a-Second-Language instructors reach about 12,000 adult students weekly during the school year. Through Books for the Border and Beyond, an early literacy project developed in 2008, more than 2,500 families have received beginning home libraries.
SBTC leaders support immigration reform. Seventeen leading ministers at the Southern Baptists of Texas Evangelism Conference endorsed the Evangelical Immigration Table’s statement of principles, calling for immigration reform that “respects the God-given dignity of every person, protects the unity of the immediate family, respects the rule of law, guarantees secure national borders, ensures fairness to taxpayers, and establishes a path toward legal status and/or citizenship for those who qualify and who wish to become permanent residents.” New signatories of the document included Bart Barber, SBTC first vice president and pastor of First Baptist Church in Farmersville; Bill Britt, president of the Conference of Texas Baptist Evangelists; Matt Chandler, senior pastor of The Village Church in Highland Village and president of the Acts 29 Network; and Bill Jones, executive director of Neches River Baptist Association in Crockett. Several Baptist General Convention of Texas leaders already had signed onto the principles. Last summer, Suzii Paynter, then director of the Texas Baptist Christian Life Commission and now executive coordinator of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, and Jesse Rincones, president of the Hispanic Baptist Convention of Texas, endorsed the statement of principles.


[Outlook]Encroaching imperialismKorea’s series of victories in Beijing are another blessing to help us commemorate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the republic this year. The whole nation has rejoiced at the news of the many victories that have compensated the Korean athletes for their endless training and hardship.
However, troubles still lurk beneath the surface. It seems that the Korean people feel the urge to shrug off their anxieties, as beset as they are with troubles both at home and abroad.
During the past few months, we have noticed that echoes of imperialism are returning to the international arena.
In addition, we are witnessing evil omens heralding the appearance of unfavorable conditions for Korea from a geopolitical point of view.
Amid these increasingly ominous signs, we are confronted with a crisis. The public is suffering from a chronic disruptive illness once again, and our society has become overwhelmed by distrust, jealousy and hatred.
The Korean Peninsula, the territory where the Korean people live their lives, is surrounded by three neighbors: China, Russia and Japan.
These three are far bigger than Korea, and they almost invariably have inherent imperialist tendencies.
We will never forget that they serve as a constant threat to the peaceful existence of the Korean people in the future, even though we have entered into the era of globalization.
There are three worrying propensities in particular that we need to recognize.
First, an increasingly reactionary atmosphere has been revived. They are all attempting to regain their past imperialistic glory.
Second, although they have achieved their own political and economic reforms, they feel uneasy about whether their achievements will lead to long-term stability and development.
Third, there is a clear sign that nationalism is being bolstered as the easiest measure to resolve the general atmosphere of fear about the future.
Koreans want to congratulate China on its hosting of the world’s largest sports festival, having witnessed the visually stunning Beijing Olympics facilities and the splendid opening ceremony.
It is also understood that China has expressed a strong commitment to regain its earlier position of power and to re-establish itself as Asia’s preponderant player.
Against this backdrop, it is hard not to feel anxious about how we are going to be able to build a peaceful coexistence and work toward co-prosperity in Korea-Sino relations in a sound and constructive manner.
Meanwhile, Russia reigned supreme as the Soviet Union only 10 or so years ago. The country flaunted its power by the use of force in the Russia-Georgia conflict. The battle broke out as a result of Russia’s imperialist tradition and Georgia’s complex internal troubles, and the dramatic war left a profound impression on us.
Following the events on TV as Russian tanks and planes quashed the Georgians, we were reminded of the Korean War, and Hungary in 1956.
Another reason why we cannot forget the bitter taste left by imperialism is Japan’s stubborn attitude surrounding the Dokdo issue in recent days.
Japan is insisting that Dokdo was officially incorporated into Shimane Prefecture in 1905.
It means that Japan seemingly has no hesitation in taking a reactionary stance or in forgetting the historic significance of the year 1905.
Japan had succeeded in fulfilling two tasks with its Meiji Restoration: Westernization and rapid modernization.
Although belatedly, Japan plunged into the maelstrom of imperialist struggle in the Far East.
It mercilessly colonized our country from 1910 to 1945 by entering into the Protectorate Treaty with Korea in 1905.
Some people might dismiss regrets about Japan’s past mistakes and wrongdoings of its imperialist era as an already-finished one-act drama.
But there is a dangerous trend in the country now, as Japan tries to disguise its wish to regain its past imperialist power as a new nationalism.
It is our sincere hope that Japan will not be eager to take advantage of the trend.
How can we protect our national destiny and open up a new way forward in an insecure international environment in which the new dynamics of the imperialist era are ongoing?
This is an historic task that needs to be completed as we celebrate Korea’s Liberation Day.
It is commonly acknowledged that the Korean people are armed with outstanding qualities and extraordinary abilities.
The Korean national flag, which is waving in Beijing, is a symbol that represents Koreans’ splendid capabilities.
However, if we still have some fears about the future, it is because we have not resolved doubts on how we can recover from the ongoing disruptions facing Korean society - division, chaos and confrontation.
The first and foremost task to cure such a chronic illness is to recognize that personal resentment is a matter of community that we should work on together.
We should embark on a concerted endeavor to resolve these problems that we are dealing with in a systematic manner.
There is no time to wait.
We should also keep in mind the saying, “United we stand, divided we fall.” It is time for the whole nation to gain an invaluable lesson from the sentiment expressed by this axiom, based on our sincere belief in ourselves.
