Red Line

Indiana University Bloomington (IU) and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) offered a full-day workshop aimed at digital library professionals, researchers, and educators to cover prominent issues surrounding digital libraries education. It is one of the activities of an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)-funded collaborative digital library education project ( This is the second year of a three-year project, with a digital library workshop or conference in each of the three years. We have spent the past year recruiting our first classes of Digital Library Fellows, learning about the requirements of the digital library profession, and developing new courses. The workshop built upon a similar workshop at last year's Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) and brought together a number of speakers on topics of interest to digital library educators and working professionals. The workshop, attended by approximately 35 participants, brought together IU and UIUC students, faculty, and librarians, other IMLS grant recipients, and representatives from digital library programs in other countries to report on project details, including requirements analysis, curriculum development, and program evaluation. Recurring themes included the balance between theory and practice in the digital library curriculum, the relationship between computer science and library and information science in the education of digital librarians, and the importance of providing internships in working digital library programs.

Keynote Addresses

In his keynote presentation, "Curriculum Development for Digital Libraries," Ed Fox, a professor at Virginia Tech, presented a model of digital libraries that he referred to as 5S. The five elements in the model are: structure, scenario, spatial, society, and stream. He went on to explain specific elements of the 5S model and provided rationale for these high level elements. Later, Fox presented an example of applying 5S in a particular domain. He focused on archeology and showed how 5S can be used to analyze digital library requirements specific to this field. He went on to show how 5S model relates to the reference model under development by the DELOS group in Europe. Fox pointed out that the reference model does not have as strong an emphasis on social aspects of digital library usage as the 5S model. He mentioned that it is important to have one reference model that integrates the key elements (even across geographic locations). He showed a demonstration of how 5S can be used to help guide the production of digital library components using a tool that his research group created. The tool is similar to a 'wizard' supported in common MS Windows applications. It prompts developers as they design a digital library component and helps them create the component in a step-by-step manner.

In their keynote addresses Linda Smith, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and Edie Rasmussen, University of British Columbia, focused on specific knowledge required to become a successful digital library professional. A wide variety of knowledge types were identified, covering information technology, content management, and organizational management. In one survey, it was found 'Markup languages' was the most desired current IT knowledge, while knowledge of 'Content Management Systems' was identified to be the most important knowledge that will be required in the future. 'Metadata' was identified to be most important current content management knowledge and 'Digital Preservation' was projected to be the area most likely to grow in importance with time. The topic of 'Legal Issues in Digital Libraries' was pointed out as the most important and most likely to grow in importance under the area of digital library organizational management.

Morning Panels

In the panel session that followed the keynote speeches, "Discipline-based & International Issues," moderated by Javed Mostafa, David Nichols of Waikato University, New Zealand discussed from a computer science perspective the knowledge that may be relevant to digital librarianship. He pointed out five topical areas: 1) integrating and analyzing networked information sources, 2) ingesting, digitizing, and organizing content, 3) designing interfaces, 4) creating and evaluating search strategies, and 5) guiding and training users. A proper balance of computer science and librarianship knowledge is perhaps required. It was pointed out that building systems and managing them probably are essential parts of becoming a successful digital librarian. A curriculum on teaching system development and management must take into consideration the appropriate level of abstraction (of system) and should also include exposure to failure analysis.

Barbara Wildemuth of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill provided a comparison of computer science (CS) and library and information science (LIS) in terms of the potential disciplinary home of digital libraries. She noted the strong focus on systems, structures, and processes in CS. In contrast, LIS is perhaps a "meta-discipline concerned with documentary products and activities of other disciplines" (Bates, 1999). There are important differences in entry-level knowledge, disciplinary values and vocabularies, and employer expectations between CS and LIS. She went on to discuss the implications of these differences on training digital librarians, particularly emphasizing pre-requisite knowledge, current content of curriculum, and emerging areas that may be relevant in the future.

The second morning panel, "Student and Recent Graduate Discussion," featured three current IMLS-funded Digital Library Fellows, Parmit Chilana from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and Annette Richmond and Melanie Schlosser, both from Indiana University Bloomington. The panel moderator, Kristine Brancolini, asked the panelists to respond to a number of questions:

  1. Please describe your internship activity. How useful was your internship experience and how well did it complement your coursework?
  2. Now that you have completed much of your LIS coursework and you have some experience working in a digital library program, how would you assess your preparation for work?
  3. Which courses were the most helpful?
  4. What course content was most useful?
  5. What types of course-related assignments were most useful?
  6. What courses does your LIS program not offer that you believe would be most beneficial to you and other students preparing for digital librarianship?

The first speaker, Parmit Chilana from UIUC, demonstrated some of the work she had done as a student in digital library courses and during her internship during the spring of 2006. (This is the link to her website: <>.) Ms. Chilana discussed her experience with digital library courses and internship projects. The UIUC courses consisted of theory and practical team-based projects, which was helpful. Since Ms. Chilana has a CS background, it wasn't too difficult for her to pick up the technical skills; she has focused on developing insight about library concepts. The internship projects were great because the concepts from the classroom could be immediately turned into practice. The other two students, Melanie Schlosser and Annette Richmond from IUB, are in the middle of internships and spoke more generally about their coursework and work experiences. Ms. Schlosser and Ms. Richmond covered four major topics: Internships; Preparation for Work; Specific Courses and Content; and Course Assignments.

Both of their internships will be varied. Ms. Schlosser will to do a little bit of everything:

  • Policy development– helping draft policies for the Digital Library Program to be included on the new departmental website;
  • Website design – organizing and placing content into the new site;
  • Institutional repository – helping draft policies for the Digital Library Program community in IU ScholarWorks;
  • Metadata mapping – mapping a native metadata schema and MARC records for a sheet music digitization project to MODS, TEI text encoding project; and
  • Project management – working with a smaller partner on an LSTA grant-funded project; she will serve as first point of contact for project partner

Ms. Richmond's first internship project, which involves text-encoding using TEI, has been extremely beneficial. It has been helpful to actually see the theories learned in class applied. The internship also provides real projects to work on; she felt that classroom projects sometimes seem artificial or contrived, a sentiment echoed by the other students as well.

Preparation for Work

The students felt that they had been exposed to a wide variety of concepts and technologies. Ms. Schlosser recounted a conversation she had with a woman who runs an institutional repository at a large university. They discussed institutional repositories, DSpace, open access, and the digital library world in general. Although at this time Ms. Schlosser can't do all of the things the repository director does, nor understand the more technical details of the director's work, Ms. Schlosser was able to carry on a conversation with the repository director and understands in theory how the system works, why it is run as it is and how the system fits into the larger IR and DL community. Although there isn't anything Ms. Schlosser could say without hesitation that she's 100% qualified to do right out of school, her internship is complementing some of the theoretical knowledge gained from her classes. Ms. Richmond noted that she feels familiar with many DL issues and the terminology, and she feels capable of holding an intelligent conversation with someone in working in the digital library area. However, because so much of her knowledge is theoretical, she is unsure of her ability to apply it immediately in a job setting. All of the student panelists noted that they will need significant on-the-job training despite the rigor of their academic preparation.

Specific Courses and Content

Ms. Richmond noted that the digital library classes have been good for introducing basic concepts and theories, since she knew very little about digital libraries when she began the program. At IU the Digital Library introductory course covers broad concepts; it was designed to create familiarity with the history, philosophy, practices and standards of the DL world. The final project at IU was creating a detailed proposal for a digitization project. This is very different from the introductory course at UIUC, which actually requires the students to use the Greenstone software to complete a project. Ms. Richmond cited the short XML workshop at IU as beneficial for her internship. Other programming classes have some application to digital libraries, but Ms. Richmond noted that digital libraries were not mentioned in any of her non-digital library classes, leaving the students to draw their own conclusions about the relationship between the class material and the digital library world. In the digital library courses, students spent a fair amount of time looking at the projects done by various libraries across the country. While nothing replaces work on an actual project, it was helpful to see what others had done and to study what metadata they displayed and how their interfaces worked (good vs. bad). Viewing other projects also helped students understand the great variety of things that digital libraries provide in the way of content and services. Ms. Chilana noted that the metadata course at UIUC covers both theory and practice, which the students regarded as a useful model.

Student panelists also indicated that a full semester XML course would be useful (as XML is the building block of so much digital library work) as well as an advanced, capstone course to bring together the entire program of study.

Course Assignments

Ms. Schlosser noted that faculty emphasize theory along with a small amount of practical implementation, but not enough practical implementation for students to apply that knowledge to real-world tasks. She felt, however, that this is a conscious decision on the part of faculty, because technologies change and people have varying technical expertise. She learned enough web design to create a simple website and to interact with more complicated websites, and she learned enough database theory to create a simple database and interact with more complicated ones. Still, she found it frustrating that there is inadequate time during the course of study to learn any one thing really well.

Ms. Richmond concluded that an overview of digital library concepts should be covered in non-digital library courses, both information science courses and library science courses. She noted at "an amazing number of LIS students don't know what digital libraries are."

Afternoon Panels

The two afternoon panels at the workshop were devoted to current digital library education programs at other universities and on the needs of practitioners, especially for new hires. The speakers for Panel 1, "Curriculum," moderated by Stephen Downie, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, were:

  • Dr. Daqing He, University of Pittsburgh, "Digital Library Education at Pitt,"
  • Dr. Xia Lin, Drexel University, "DIO: Digital Information Organization,"
  • Dr. Mary-Lynn Rice-Lively, UT-Austin, "Digitization in the Round," and
  • Dr. Nina Wacholder, Rutgers, "Digital Library Education at Rutgers SCILS."

These four programs approach digital library education from a library and information science perspective. Three of the four schools have received grants from IMLS from the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarians program to support the development of digital library curriculum. Three of the four programs are focused on master's level education. The Drexel program is designed to educate digital library faculty, and project fellows are doctoral students. Dr. He described University of Pittsburgh's efforts to extend their existing MLIS program to create a new Digital Library Information Management program. He presented a model called the DiLight System. In addition to the traditional LIS student, Pitt hopes the new program will appeal to students in computer science and related disciplines. Dr. Lin reported on progress at Drexel University. In the first year of the project, the five digital library fellows were paired with faculty and worked on digital library research projects. This program is exploring ways in which digital information organization is different from traditional information organization. Dr. Rice-Lively reported on the first year of the UT-Austin project, which focuses upon collaboration between the school and the university library's Digital Library Services Division, builds upon existing curriculum, builds upon institutional infrastructure, and aims to recruit outstanding students. Dr. Wacholder described the new program at Rutgers, which incorporates these themes: the need to broaden the existing LIS curriculum to account for the increasing impact of technology on librarianship and the social and cultural influences of technology. She provided an outline of Rutgers' online curriculum and their undergraduate program in Information Technology and Informatics.

The second afternoon panel, "Practice and Career Options," moderated by Mary Schlembach, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, featured three digital library practitioners: David Bainbridge, Waikato University, Kristine Brancolini, Indiana University Bloomington, and Bill Mischo, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. David Bainbridge discussed several professional positions taken up by people who worked on the Greenstone team, providing insight into possible career paths for individuals with digital library experience. One former member of the project team is now head of the Google branch in NYC. Another person has launched his own digital library consulting company. Ms. Brancolini described the ways in which the IU Digital Libraries Education Program seeks to bridge the gap between theory and practice with internship opportunities and to provide mentoring for the Digital Library Fellows. The IU DLP works in a number of areas, including digitization, metadata creation, digital library infrastructure, and digital library software tools. Student internships are available in all of these areas. In addition to classroom and work experiences, the IMLS grant has funded professional development experiences, such as a visit to UIUC to meet with colleagues there and to hear Roy Tennant speak to the GSLIS faculty and students; and attendance at a day-long copyright workshop sponsored by Ball State University Libraries. (Four of the five IU fellows attended the JCDL workshop.) Bill Mischo provided an overview of the digital library environment at UIUC, including the changing nature of digital library work, the complicated funding situation, the specific digital library environment in the Grainger Engineering Library, digital library project staffing, and digital library internship project areas.

Final Discussion

The workshop concluded with a discussion of follow-up activities. Next year will be the third and final year of the IU-UIUC Digital Libraries Education Project. The project team plans a larger digital library education conference for next year, and they solicited input from workshop participants on desired format, topics, and location for the 2007 event. The team will be conducting a survey of workshop participants to gather additional input and also seeks comments from others who may have ideas about next year's conference.

Guest Student Blog: The Importance of Identifying and Understanding Target Audience for Marketing – By HLA student Jamie Mead

Edexcel BTEC Level 4 Diploma in Marketing Communications is the very first higher-level apprenticeship qualification in digital marketing .  I am working with Cirencester College and Creative Skillset in delivering it to key South West employers.

This is a professional work-related qualification in a range of sectors and involves learning “using information about real or case study clients” that is “covered in the workplace” or using industry professionals as a guest speaker.

My student Jamie (who is a full-time Account Executive at Bray Leino following a successful apprenticeship with the company), in an interview with industry professional Alex Prebble looked “to gain an insight into the importance of identifying and understanding target audience for marketing”, which is a HLA unit outcome.

Guest blog by Jamie Mead, July 26th, 2013.

Setting the scene

Alex Prebble is an Associate Director at Market Research Agency CSR and has worked there for 8 years. I wanted to talk to Alex to find out more about her work as part of my HLA in marketing and advertising course. I was looking to gain an insight into the importance of identifying and understanding a target audience for marketing, from the perspective of a Market Research company.

CSR is one of the leading UK qualitative market research companies. Established in 1989 and based in London, they are industry acknowledged experts in their field. They are an international company with a range of blue chip clients and benefit from a large number of their projects being repeat business – this reaffirms the fact they are very highly regarded both within the industry and by their clients.

So what do CSR do in a nutshell? Alex explained, “[they] conduct qualitative research which is focussed on the ‘how’ and the ‘why’, rather than the ‘who’ and the ‘what’.” They most commonly use conventional but effective methods of conducting their research such as holding focus groups and in-depth interviews but they also utilise ground breaking methodologies and techniques which they have developed themselves over time.

Focus Groups – the Market Research agency cost effective tool

Focus groups (FGs) are a particular specialty CSR implement and are one of their most popular methods of conducting research.  Why? Well, if testing a theory or hypothesis, FGs prove to be a very accurate and cost effective method of researching an answer. They allow people to bounce their ideas off of each other, they can pick one side of an argument and it allows them to pitch the argument against people with opposing views – it’s a creative way of conducting thorough research and obtaining reliable results.

Something we briefly spoke about in the interview (this is also featured on the case studies section of their website) is another example of CSR’s ingenuity at implementing simple yet effective methods of research is how they overcame the challenge of speaking to 60 British and French women about their laundry behaviour over a 10 day period which would not be affected by time differences or interfering with their daily lives. They did so by setting up a blog which allowed the women involved to write their immediate impressions about the new product they were testing at a time that suited them and meant they didn’t need to leave the house or make arrangements around their involvement. CSR could collect their detailed responses and see them change over the 10 day period of the trial.

If you target everyone, you don’t say anything to anyone.

So why do marketeers need to target or segment an audience? In simple terms,  Alex cleverly explained: “if you target everyone, you don’t say anything to anyone”.

For me that’s really a clear way of explaining a central marketing technique – the importance of knowing your target audience. If you’re targeting everyone, you’re not really directing a message to anyone’s specific wants, needs or interests and advertising or promoting in this way can very easily get lost among the numerous messages and advertisements that consumers are exposed to on a daily basis.

By understanding your target audience, “you can grow the brand” a lot more effectively as you will be more specific and you will be sending out a targeted message to the right people – the people that you know are far more likely to respond and take action, Alex eloquently explained to me.

Lessons learnt

I found the interview with Alex really interesting and I felt I took away a good amount of information, this was both seeing things I already knew in a different light and I also learnt many interesting reasons that further confirmed to me the importance of identifying and understanding target audiences.

The interview also taught me the value that companies like CSR have to the companies that they work with – the insights, data and answers that their research provides can “build brand capital” but it can also prove a great way to attain a return on investment.

Farmer’s Market Frittata: How-to’s + Ideas

Every cook needs a frittata to call his or her own. A chubby, big-as-a-plate, well-done omelet with a generous amount of add-ins, the frittata is a cook’s tabula rasa and a host’s best friend.

Known as a tortilla in Spain and in France’s Pays Basque, where the classic includes potatoes and often chorizo, it’s a regular on tapas counters everywhere. You can eat the frittata straight out of the oven, but part of its appeal is that it’s delicious at room temperature, which is how it’s served at wine bars. You can cut it into small cubes, spearable with a toothpick, and it will be perfect for nibbling standing up at a cocktail party. Or you can slice it into wedges, pair it with salad and bring it out with knives and forks at lunch, brunch or supper. Whatever you call it and however you serve it, it’ll draw fans.

Put most simply, a frittata is a jumble of vegetables and/or meat mixed into a bowlful of beaten eggs and cooked until done.

The add-ins are up for grabs. They can be a mix of leftovers, like small pieces of string beans, potatoes, zucchini, cauliflower, cabbage, roasted chicken or shrimp; snips of bacon; small hunks of sausage or ham. If you think they go together in general, then they’ll go together in your frittata.

For my accompanying frittata, I’m using spring onions, greens and the first of the tomatoes from my local farmers market. I don’t add the tomato slices until the frittata is half-done, so they can hold their shape but still flavor the mix. Oh, and I season the frittata with mustard, a nod to the mustard tart that a friend of mine from Dijon taught me to make.

As an easy rule of thumb: Anything you’re going to add to the eggs should be cooked ahead. You do that in part to soften the vegetables, because they won’t really be cooked in the frittata, and in part to rid them of excess liquid, so they won’t waterlog the eggs.

To make a hearty frittata, you need an ovenproof skillet with high sides. My favorite pan for this is my trusty nine-inch cast-iron skillet, but a nonstick pan will do just as well, and, while I like straight sides, sloping sides are fine.

The onions and garlic in the recipe need a quick cook in olive oil before you pile in the greens. I love using kale for this frittata because of its deep flavor, but spinach is delicious, as is chard. When you first toss in the greens, they’re so voluminous, they threaten to spill over the sides of the skillet. Worry not. Crank up the heat and stir without stop; within a minute, the heat and oil will have wilted the greens, and you’ll be able to mix them neatly in the pan. Taste as you go. You’re cooking the greens mostly for texture, so when they’re just the way you enjoy them, call it quits.

Wipe out the pan: This is a fussy step that shouldn’t be skipped. A clean pan means an easy lift-out when the frittata’s ready to be flipped out for serving.

As for cooking the frittata: It’s easy — so much easier than any kind of omelet. Pour in lightly whisked eggs and don’t do a thing for about two minutes. Then, run a spatula around the edges, gently nudging the eggs inward toward the center of the pan and just slightly upward, so the uncooked portions can slip into newly vacated real estate. Do that one or two times more, and then it’s hands off. Let the eggs go for a few more minutes, until they’re half-cooked — precision isn’t crucial here — then top the frittata with the tomatoes and some cheese and slide the pan into a hot oven to bake until the eggs are set and the frittata is beautifully puffed.

Done. Really. It’s all over except the decision-making: Have it hot? Room temp? Cold? Pack it for picnic? Break out the rosé? Hoard it for late-night snacking? Put out the word that there’s a party at your place? Told you. A frittata’s a dish with possibilities.

Farmer’s Market Frittata

Servings: 6

You can eat a frittata straight out of the oven, but part of its appeal is that it’s delicious at room temperature, which is how it’s served at wine bars in Spain and France. Cut it into small cubes for hors d’oeuvres, slice it into wedges or pair it with salad and bring it out with knives and forks at lunch, brunch or supper.

You’ll need a 10-inch ovenproof skillet for the frittata; choose a well-seasoned cast-iron or nonstick skillet.

Make Ahead: The cooled frittata can be wrapped and refrigerated a day in advance.

  • 4 ounces greens, such as kale, spinach or chard, stemmed and finely shredded
  • Kosher salt
  • 3 medium spring onions or 2 bunches scallions, trimmed (white and light-green scallion parts)
  • About 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (green germ removed), minced
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 9 large eggs
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 3 tomato slices, each cut into two half-moons
  • 2 tablespoons grated or shredded cheese, such as Parmigiano-Reggiano or cheddar

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

If you’re using kale, place the shredded leaves in a bowl, sprinkle them with salt and use your fingers to massage them for about 1 minute. (This isn’t necessary with other greens.)

If you’re using spring onions, cut them in half and slice into thin half-moons. If you’re using scallions, thinly slice the white and light-green parts.

Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil into the skillet over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, stir in the onions or scallions and the garlic, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Add the greens; increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until they are soft enough to enjoy, about 2 minutes (although kale might need a minute more). The greens will be a lot for the skillet, but they cook down quickly and dramatically. If the greens are sticking, drizzle in a bit more oil.

Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and mustard together in a mixing bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper (keep in mind that the cheese you use might be salty); stir in the just-wilted greens.

Wipe out the pan, which must be clean before you start the frittata or the eggs will stick. Return it to the stove top over medium-high heat.

Pour in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil shimmers, pour in the egg-greens mixture. Cook undisturbed for 2 minutes, then run a flexible spatula around the sides, between the pan and the eggs, pulling the eggs gently toward the center and tilting the pan a little so that the unset eggs fill the space. Cook for 4 minutes (total time is about 6 minutes), running your spatula around the eggs and a little under them every 2 minutes. After about 5 minutes, the eggs around the edges will be set and you won’t be able to pull them in (but run the spatula around and under them anyway to keep them from sticking). At the 6-minute mark, the frittata should look half-done; if it doesn’t, cook for 1 minute more. Remove from the heat.

Arrange the tomato slices over the frittata, sprinkle on the cheese and slide the skillet into the oven (middle rack). Bake until the frittata is cooked through to the center and lightly golden, about 10 minutes. It won’t brown much; if you want more color, run it under the broiler.

Transfer the skillet to a wire cooling rack; run a spatula around the edges. You can leave the frittata in the pan or unmold it. To do the latter, place a cutting board over the skillet, invert the frittata onto the board and then invert it onto a serving platter.

You can eat the frittata hot, like an omelet, but it is traditionally served at room temperature. The mustard flavor will be more pronounced once the frittata cools.

This week I’ve been:

  • Sending out Thought Shrapnel, my weekly newsletter loosely structured around education, technology, and productivity. Issue #275 was entitled ‘Face facts’. A reminder that all the links for the newsletter (and more!) go out via the Thought Shrapnel Live! channel on Telegram. High-fives to those who have become valued supporters.
  • Recording and releasing Episode 87 (‘About Face’) of the Today In Digital Education (TIDE) podcast, which I record with Dai Barnes. This was the first episode since July and so this week we discussed what we got up to over the summer break, why you shouldn’t unlock your phone with your face, student uniforms and tuition fees, productivity, the future of work, and more!
  • Spending time thinking and talking about something I can’t announce just quite yet. Exciting, though!
  • Researching and writing a research report on technology-enhanced teacher professional development for the Education Development Trust with Sarah Horrocks from London CLC.
  • Attending the first meeting of the local Scouts Executive Committee in the role of Secretary. I’m going to try and bring them into the 21st century a bit.
  • Working with Totara Learning continuing to work on the vision and strategy for their community migration project. I spent time on things like putting together a community survey, meeting with the project team, and putting together a draft code of conduct.
  • Hosting this month’s Badge Wiki barn raising, which I’ll be writing up soon. Things are going pretty well, and it’s great that people are so willing to step up to help build a knowledge base for the Open Badges community! Check out what we discussed here.
  • Writing:

This weekend, I’m helping with the Scouts expedition (map reading, etc.) Next week I’m working from home on Monday and Tuesday morning, mainly on London CLC-related stuff. Then I’m heading down on the train to Brighton to work with Totara. I’ll be working from their offices on Wednesday and Friday, spending Thursday in London at Learning Pool Live.

Upcoming travel in October:

  • Barcelona (3rd-8th)
  • Geneva (9th-10th)
  • Brighton (18th-20th)
  • Gozo (24th-31st)

I make my living helping people and organisations become more productive in their use of technology. If you’ve got something that you think I might be able to help with, please do get in touch! Email:

Nestled within the foothills of the jagged Cascade Mountains, straddling the aptly-named Icicle River, is a tiny little village where the buildings are all muraled, the beer is heartily German, and the tantalizing scents of sauerkraut and bratwurst waft through the main strip every single weekend.
As I drive too quickly along the last few serpentine miles of Steven’s Pass, I crane my neck to glimpse the swirling teal blue chaos of the Icicle River that I follow into the town of Leavenworth, Washington. Even though I grew up in this town, with the imposing cliffs and ridges of the mountains at my fingertips and the tumultuous whitewater rapids literally in my backyard, I never tire of the view, and my heart soars every single time as I wend my way into the valley. These mountains mean home, my soul sings. Welcome home.

Leavenworth is known for its yearly mimicry of the famous German Oktoberfest, held during, of course, October. Another great draw is the annual Christmas Lighting Festival, hosted during the first couple weekends of December. Any tourism guide will tell you to see one or both of these festivals, or to come by in the spring for the Apple Blossom Parade and witness the town in bloom. These parties draw in 1.3 million visitors annually, and they are a great deal of fun as the town bursts with activities and polka music. A visitor would never suppose Leavenworth’s Bavarian origins began as recently as the 1960’s, as a way to revive a dying logger town.
These factoids don’t concern me as I peel around the last corner and abruptly come into view of the valley. The main stretch always looks unchanged to me, at first. Then, as I slow my car to a crawl, I notice minor differences: the Starbucks moved down the street; a new restaurant opened up; a liquor store took over the abandoned Burger King. It always strikes a dissonant chord in my mind that a town that’s constantly changing still seems to be exactly as I last left it.
As I drive through town to my parent’s house, I ponder the reason for my excitement upon returning to Leavenworth. When I was a little kid, I was so fascinated with the candy and toy shops that I didn’t notice for many years that they were all basically the same store. As a teenager, being confined in such a small, isolated community drove me mad, and I moved out of town mere weeks after I graduated. For a couple of years after moving out, I thought of the village only with disdain and disgust. It would stand to reason that I would dread returning to this little mountain town, but every time, I find myself giddy with joy.
It isn’t for the beer that I find myself jubilant, or the kitschy town as a whole. I don’t have many friends left in the valley, nor many family members. So what is it that brings me back to Leavenworth, season after season? What is it that makes me smile with nostalgia and say to anyone who asks, “Yeah, Leavenworth is worth visiting”?

Sometime during middle school, I picked up the habit of going out at night. This isn’t exactly a rare thing among adolescents, but my reasons were a bit unusual compared to the reasons of my peers: I wanted to see the stars.
On any given night, sometime between eleven pm and three am, I could be found ambling along the streets, my hands in my pockets and my head tilted straight back. The streetlights along the old highway illuminate the main stretch of town, but one or two streets over and the starry expanse opens up above. During the week, the town goes quiet at around eight pm, leaving the streets desolate by ten. No matter the season, I could be found meandering the main strip, now dark and quiet, the gaping absence of polka music a sweet relief. I would step off the main drag and wander around the residential streets, feeling utterly safe and entirely alone with my thoughts and the celestial bodies above me.

Small town life is often romanticized, much to the chagrin of anyone who knows what the provincial life really entails. For all the conveniences that a city has to offer, there lacks the sense of security that a midnight wander requires to be truly satisfying. If I were truly in trouble, one loud shout would bring half a dozen people running to my aid, but should I remain quiet, my presence would go unnoticed. I’m no longer a teenager, but every chance I get, I peruse the streets of Leavenworth after dark, drinking in the silence and the stars.

The other reason I find myself returning to Leavenworth is the town’s innate connection with the natural world. The town itself snuggles up against the foothills of the mountains, and the impressive view alone can bring traffic to a standstill. The river floods every spring with the snow runoff, and a few short months later, locals and visitors alike can be found plunging into the frigid waters to escape the heat. What I find most remarkable, though, is the tenuous harmony between the humans and wildlife.

Every year, a brown bear comes down from the mountains, and even though he can frequently be sighted along the river, there is a general understanding that, unless he poses an immediate and violent threat to the human residents of the valley, he is to be left alone to return to the mountains in the spring. The presence of an apex predator is to be expected in such a locale, and the people who live there accept that fact.

The deer, too, are fearless in Leavenworth. While not quite as exciting as a bear, they are much more likely to be sighted on any given day. One of my favorite memories in Leavenworth took place on an early morning run around Blackbird Island, the little nature reserve along the water, just a couple minutes’ walk from the main street. As the summer mist dissipated off the river and the sun filtered through the leaves, I turned a corner and quite literally bumped into a doe and her twin fawns. After the initial shock passed and each party realized the other wasn’t a threat, the doe and I stared intently at each other as her offspring sniffed my shoes. A long moment later, the trio silently disappeared into the brush.

Such occurrences are quite common in the little Bavarian town. The lack of concern the animals have is astonishing, and the possibility of sighting some wildlife is a massive appeal for many visitors, myself included.

It is for these reasons that I find myself elated, and am practically bouncing in my seat as I pull into the driveway at my parents’ house. While I encourage anyone who feels so inclined to party during Oktoberfest, grab an ice cream cone and wander the teeming streets during a summer weekend, or to bundle up with some jackets and loved ones during the Christmas Lighting Festival, the real reason to visit Leavenworth is to simply be in a place that is both safe and quiet, to wonder at the natural world around the tiny themed village.

Thank You Note:
> Thank you for your love, help and support

The Nephew, the Godchild

I still find it really hard to believe that Tyler is no longer with us here on earth, it all happened so quickly, it just seems like a nightmare, certainly a parent's worst nightmare. This tragedy has created such excruciating pain and devastation, that it seems almost unbearable. The heart certainly is an amazing organ, to be able to be crushed and shattered time and time again and still, somehow, have the capacity to feel emotion again. If we only had a remedy for our broken hearts.

It has been so enjoyable to read memories about Tyler from his classmates, teachers, and friends - those are the kid of memories that we often times wouldn't know about. It seems unanimous that he was a happy person with a great smile, had a quick wit, a great sense of humor and a very LOUD truck.

When Tyler was little, he spent a great amount of time with the Kent and Bonnie Eicholtz Family. His Aunt Peggy took great price in the time she spent with him. I think Tyler shared his zest for living life to the fullest, just like his Uncle Jim. Tyler's sense of humor was shared by many family members, Grandpa Kent, Grandma Bonnie, and Great Uncle Duane to name a few. Tyler was very, very special and close to Grandma and Grandpa Eicholtz. You can hear the pride in their voices when they speak of Tyler. The times Grandpa and Steve spent with Tyler teaching him the family masonry business will remain special in their memories.

It was nice to read about the many times that Tyler was watching out for his Lil Sis, Erin. Erin and Tyler both were/are such great cousins to my kids, Tracy and Russell. They looked up to Tyler and Erin all the time (so I'm thankful they are such great persons). Tyler helped Russell set up his bike ramp that he got for Christmas this year in our basement - Tyler thought there was no need to wait for Spring, so they both rode the bike ramp.

I am so thankful that Tyler, Erin, Lisa and Steve spent a wonderful Hawaiian Christmas together this year, even though we missed spending the holidays with them. There is a lovely picture of Lisa with her arms around Tyler - I think it was on a boat ride - where their hair is blowing in the wind - Tyler knew he was loved. I'm sure Lisa would give anything for one more time to hug her son.

Cara, it may not seem like it now, but you're been very luck, like the rest of us, to have had Tyler in our lives. Cherish your memories; my heart aches for you also. We hope you'll stop by the Eicholtz lake cabin this summer when you have a chance.

I can just imagine Tyler with Cousin Kyle and Uncle Jim having a grand time in heaven - you know they say God only takes the best. We love and miss you all. Carry on boys!

I'm very grateful for the hundreds of precious memories that we have of Tyler, the vacations spent together, the great fun at the Eicholtz lake cabin (the 4th of July water fights, inner tubing, Tyler riding the bogs), the holidays shared together, and on and on. We will cherish them forever.

We love you Tyler . . .until we meet again. Erin . . . keep on truckin.

Your Aunt and Godmother, Sheryl Eicholtz-Landis
Tracy and Russell (Tyler, you're the Best!)
And Angel Kyle

The Thirteen Percenters

Yair Rosenberg has a good article up on the deep, deep Jewish antipathy for the UK Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn's leadership -- such that just 13% of British Jews plan to vote Labour in the upcoming parliamentary election.

It's a good piece, but I have one minor quibble. To put that 13% figure in perspective, Rosenberg offers the following comparison: "For comparison, 2016 exit polls showed that Donald Trump received 8 percent of the African American vote."

It's not that this is wrong. It's just that there's a much more striking analogy.

Donald Trump received 13% of the Muslim vote this past election.

That seems to drive home the point much more cleanly, no? British Jews view Corbyn the same way that Muslim Americans view Trump. Sobering -- for those who care about those sorts of things, anyway.

1 comment: said...

I always wonder what the deal with the Jews is. The west seems to be so supportive of them, but then why don't they choose a more friendly geographical area to make their own state? The state of Israel has been so contentious.

Title: Application of Geo-Information Techniques in Land Use and Land Cover Change Analysis in a Peri-Urban District of Ghana
Authors: Appiah, Divine Odame
Schröder, Dietrich
Forkuo, Eric Kwabena

Keywords: Land use/land cover

Abstract: Using Satellite Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System, this paper analyzes the land use and land cover change dynamics in the Bosomtwe District of Ghana, for 1986, 2010 thematic mapper and enhanced thematic Mapper+ (TM/ETM+) images, and 2014 Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager and Thermal Infrared Sensor (OLI/TIS) image. The three images were geo-referenced and processed for classification, using the maximum likelihood classifier algorithm. A Jeffries-Matusita’s separability check was used in confirming the degree of spectral separation acceptability of the bands used for each of the land use and land cover classes. The best Kappa hat statistic of classification accuracy was 83%. Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) transition analysis in Environmental Systems Research Institute ESRI’s ArcMap was performed. The results of the classification over the three periods showed that built up, bare land and concrete surfaces increased from 1201 in 1986 to 5454 ha in 2010. Dense forest decreased by 2253 ha over the same period and increased by 873 ha by the 2014. Low forest also decreased by 1043 ha in 2010; however, it increased by 13% in 2014. Our findings showed some of the important changes in the land use and land cover patterns in the District. After the urbanization process, coupled with farmland abandonment, between 1986 and 2010, substantial increments in urban land and clear increments in farmland coverage between 1986 and 2014were found to be the reason for vegetation cover decreases. This suggests that major changes in the socio-ecological driving forces affecting landscape dynamics have occurred in the last few decades.

A Volley of Arrows 2009

By Magistra Nicolaa de Bracton

The weather was much more cooperative at Vest Yorvik’s archery-focused event on September 12, in its second year. Archers enjoyed clout shoots, an IKAC, a variety of fun shoots, and the woods shoot at the 3D target range (although initially the course was almost too challenging—the archers had been told to shoot from the marks used by compound shooters with laser sights).  A small number of fighters also used the day to good avail.  Their Highnesses spent the last weekend before their Coronation relaxing, shooting, getting fitted for clothing, and enjoying good company and entertainment.

Synergies with Green Energy

What are the dependencies between charging of electric vehicles and the generation of electricity from renewable energy sources? How to avoid negative grid impact? What are the technical tools for the optimal network management?

The objective of the Study 2 is to identify the potential for EV uptake, for promoting electricity generation from renewable sources for charging electric vehicles and improving the business case for grid management (stationary storage or virtual delivery). This study will also consider the contribution of electric vehicles in improving the energy mix in electricity production to a higher share of renewables.

The study will include the following sub-activities:

Sub-activity 2.1: Grid Impact

Grid management sub-activity will focus on how to manage best the energy consumption of electric vehicles and how to forecast the expected grid impact. Part of the investigation will be the comparison of technical and business solutions for the network development (load balancing on physical point vs. virtual electricity delivery). Further steps will evaluate the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of battery storage technologies compared to a higher grid connection (up to 300 kW), implications for network planning, and potential for reliance on renewable sources. Seasonal variations in demand for charging and energy consumption based on the summer season to the Adriatic will be taken into consideration.

Sub-activity 2.2: Green Energy

The focus of the sub-activity is on supporting renewable energy sources to over the electricity consumption growth in transport sector (due to electrification). Included is the evaluation of electric vehicles for local energy storage to balance the production from intermittent renewable energy sources and the consumption at individual sites. The potential of aggregating decentralized storage facilities will be questioned as well.

Tough One In The Barking Cup

I must admit, I usually enjoy my Barking Cup nights, but this time round, I’ve entirely neglected to buy myself a ticket. This is partly down to idleness and partly down to the fact that I am on call – Mrs RotorGoat has had a medical condition for nearly nine months now, and, well, she’ll be getting better soon. If you get my drift.

Should be a good night too, with a sprinkling of experience (Cygan, Flamini, van Persie and Reyes) mixing with raw inexperience (Gilbert, Eboue, Djourou, Muamba, Larsson, Lupoli, Bendtner and Connolly).

Reading, flying high in le championnat and 23 matches unbeaten, are formidable opponents, though I am reliably informed that they, too are resting key players. There’ll be quite an old-boy connection too, with rising star Sidwell, former (but not quite yet ex) keeper Stack and James Harper all playing. Not to mention the 7,200 Reading fans making the journey, about as healthy a turn-out as you will ever get.

In the wider world, the only other news you need to know is that Thierry Henry is off to Madrid. Well, he might be. Actually, Beckham says it would be nice if he did. It would also be nice, of course, if world poverty was eradicated, global warming was reversed and my council tax bill went down.

Yes indeed, that would be nice.

Barefoot at Heart Sandy Jones

Posted: Tue Jul 19, 2016 5:16 pm
by SandyJoy
In this tapestry of personal anecdotes interwoven with the wisdom of her humble and respected philosophical mentor, William Samuel, Sandy Jones shows us her own personal journey of discovering the child within.

Through stories of her childhood in California, to her life falling in love and raising a family in Aspen and back to California again, we are taken on an intimate tour of the joys and heartaches of living and the power of trusting in what is innate and true in each of us. We discover the wisdom of the child-like spirit seen through the eyes and experience of one who embodies that very spirit.

With Sandy as our guide and William's words strung throughout, we remember what it feels like to be free and unafraid, like children running through sprinklers barefoot and laughing and falling down and laughing again.

Barefoot at Heart is at once an autobiographical narrative, a conversation with life, a glimpse of a philosophy lived, and a love letter to the great mystery that holds us all.

Sandy takes us on a secret path she has forged, past the huckleberries, through the brambles and into the wide open field of our own sweet hearts, and whispers that we can go there any time we like. And we pause, and look around and feel a new freedom and say, like Celeste from Sandy's own childhood record, That's the place for me. ... t+at+heart

You can read inside the book on Amazon and the book is also available as Ebook

This book, "Barefoot at Heart" now has 18 reviews all 5 stars -- Read those, they are excellent and yes, I am very happy for this.

Love to all, Sandy

New Datakey Bar Series Receptacles Minimize Mounting Space

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (May 23, 2018) – ATEK Access Technologies released the latest additions to its Datakey Bar Series of ruggedized removable memory devices. The BRFG and BRFN panel-mount Bar receptacles minimize the required internal mounting space by eliminating the pins that would normally extend into the enclosure. The new receptacles instead feature flat targets on the bottom surface of the receptacle. Spring probes from within the enclosure are used to contact the flat targets.

Datakey Bar receptacles and memory tokens are frequently used in tactical military devices. In these applications, the removable Bar memory token functions as an authentication device or credential. Figure 1 shows a Bar memory token being inserted into a Bar receptacle.

Figure 1

“These new ‘flat target’ Bar receptacles enable embedded systems designers to integrate a ruggedized removable memory system, while taking up the least amount of front panel space and interior volume,” said Paul Plitzuweit, Senior Product Manager for the Datakey product line.

Figure 2

Small spring-probe contacts are used to connect to the flat targets on the underside of the receptacle. Some of these spring-probe contacts are as small as a tenth of an inch (2.54 mm) in height, so small they reside within the thickness of the enclosure wall, where they essentially take up almost no internal space. Figure 2 shows a cross-section view of the new Bar receptacle with an interfacing PCB with low-profile spring probes.

Figure 3

With the addition of these new models, the panel-mount Bar receptacles are now available in three different pin lengths, accommodating various housing thicknesses (see Figure 3). Bar receptacles use a non-traditional mounting, where they mount on the surface of a device or can be integrated into a corner to minimize the amount of front panel space required.

Bar memory tokens mate with all Bar receptacles and utilize an internal EEPROM for data storage. Memory capacities range from 1 kilobit to 256 kilobits with an option of SPI, I2C or Microwire serial interfaces. Like the receptacles, the Bar memory tokens utilize solid over-molded construction using an engineered thermoplastic. The Bar removable memory system is designed for challenging military and industrial applications. The system has been tested to several MIL-STD-810 environmental specifications, including: shock, vibration, immersion, salt-fog, blowing dust, blowing sand, freezing rain, solar radiation and more. The Bar receptacle and memory token system has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C (-40°C to +100°C storage).

The Bar removable memory system provides an intuitive slide-in/slide out operation and features an open design for easy in-field cleaning. It also incorporates features that provide audible and tactile feedback when the token is fully inserted. All Bar receptacles are secured using two internal screws, providing for a tamper-evident installation. The receptacles are offered with or without an adhesive gasket, which contributes to the receptacle’s IP67 rating.

Olympus’ LEXT OLS5000 3D measuring laser microscope helps users reach a higher level of metrology. With dedicated objectives, an improved scanning algorithm and a 210mm extension frame, the new LEXT can accommodate and measure a larger range of samples – as well as save time and improve productivity.

Acquiring highly accurate data in less time, the OLS5000 microscope incorporates a PEAK algorithm for 3D data construction. This algorithm, combined with an intelligent Skip Scan function, has reduced data acquisition times by 75 per cent. These time savings make the new OLS5000 well suited for high throughput applications, such as quality control in the automotive, electronic component and semiconductor industries.

With the new extension frame of the OLS5000, samples of up to 210mm can be analysed. Furthermore, with an ultra-long working distance objective it is possible to measure dents of up to 25mm and carry out comprehensive inspection of even the most challenging samples.

To capture any surface at any angle, the OLS5000 is equipped with 4K scanning technology that can capture steep slopes of up to 87.5°. Olympus has also designed dedicated objectives for the OLS5000 that perform uniform measurements across the entire field of view. Finally, a Smart Judge function was added that reliably distinguishes between steps on a sample and noise. These improvements make it possible to scan a larger number of different samples and improve confidence in the results.

at the drop of a hat

(translation of the idiom: immediately and without delay.)

last night i dreamed i was staying at a very exclusive modernist hotel with the biggest library of modernist works anywhere in the world. while fiddling with the side of my mattress one night, i found an opening in the material and discovered that within my mattress was a sealed trunk of some kind. it was sealed with ancient packing tape that wasn't hard to pry away. when i opened the trunk i found it to be filled with rare and pristine first editions of books by virginia woolf, rebecca west, and others. i knew that if i took them i could sell them and make a fortune, but, even within the dream, i felt very strongly that they were not mine to take.
the rest of the dream was spent with me fretting over how to get the trunk sealed again and the mattress repositioned so that it would go unnoticed that i had disturbed it. so i staged an elaborate theatrical scene and invited the owners of the hotel into the room to watch it, because i thought it would make me seem less suspicious. but the bed kept slipping everytime we sat on it in the scene, so we had to be careful to only look like we were sitting on it and not put any weight on it so it wouldn't capsize and expose the thing i'd done.
one would think that in a dream, one could get away with such things, and upon finding a treasure would take it at the drop of a hat. but this is a recurring theme for me. the last dream i had like this one, it was a series of rare paintings i found, also in some hidden trunk, and i left those where i found them too.

photos and their who-abouts can be found here:
1. my kid is unique, he wants to be a musk ox when he grows up..., 2. des larmes amères, 3. After the Murder, 4. beachin birthday hat, 5. the lamp shade lady, 6. DEEP SEA HARDHAT DIVER #8 "NO EINSTEIN ON THE BEACH"

Wiregrass Chapter attends Guilford Courthouse event

by | April 13, 2018 11:42 am

   On Saturday, March 17, at 10 a.m., one member of the Wiregrass Chapter, one member of the Brier Creek Chapter, and one member of the Governor David Emanuel/Adam Brinson Chapter traveled to Greensboro, North Carolina, to participate in a wreath laying ceremony for the 237th anniversary of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse. Those attending were Wiregrass Chapter President Wilder Smith Jr., Brier Creek Chapter Editor Dess Smith III, and Governor David Emanuel/Adam Brinson Chapter member Ginny Smith.

   During the ceremony, Wilder and Dess participated with the National Society’s color guard in the presentation and retirement of the colors. The color guard consisted of approximately 40 Sons of the American Revolution members from all over the nation.

   An 18th century gun salute was presented by the Johnson County, Guilford County, and New Jersey Lights. That afternoon at 2 p.m., Wilder, Dess, and Ginny attended a re-enactment of the Battle of Guilford Counthouse. The 90-minute presentation consisted of approximately 100 British soldiers supported by two 3-pounder cannons and calvary. The American force consisted of approximately 100 continentals and militia, who were supported by one 6-pounder cannon and one 12-pounder cannon.

Effects of Microgravity on Cell Cytoskeleton and Embryogenesis

Susan Crawford-Young
Red River College

Presented in the Embryo Physics Course, April 9, 2009

The aim of this review is to compile, summarize and discuss the effects of microgravity on embryos, cell structure and function that have been demonstrated from data obtained during experiments performed in space or in altered gravity induced by clinostats. In cells and tissues cellular structure and genetic expression may be changed in microgravity and this has a variety of effects on embryogenesis which include death of the embryo, failure of neural tube closure, or final deformities to the overall morphology of the newborn or hatchling. Many species and protocols have been used for microgravity space experiments making it difficult to compare results. Experiments on the ways in which embryonic development and cell interactions occur in microgravity could also be performed. Experiments that have been done with cells in microgravity show changes in morphology, cytoskeleton and function. Changes in cytoskeleton have been noted and studies on microtubules in gravity have shown that they are gravity sensitive. Further study of basic chemical reactions that occur in cells should be done to shed some light on the underling processes leading to the changes that are observed in cells and embryos in microgravity.

A2P SMS: The Economics of SMS (Part 2)

September 11th, 2009 · 11 Comments

In short, while a P2P SMS could cost 2p or so, an A2P SMS costs much lower (probably under 1 paisa) for the mobile operator.

As an aside, P2P SMS pricing varies dramatically – we could pay as little as 5p as part of an SMS pack or as high as Re 1 or more. A premium P2A SMS sent to a shortcode costs us Rs 3 (the cost to the operator is no different for this SMS).  It would be fair to say that there is perhaps nothing more lucrative in the mobile services than SMS!

In a market served by different operators, there is an interconnect charge for voice calls: the operator on whose network the call originates pays the operator where the call terminates. This interconnect charge is 20 paise per minute. In India, retail voice tariffs have been brought down significantly thanks to active intervention by TRAI at the wholesale level.

The principle that has been followed in the SMS business between operators so far has been Bill and Keep. This has worked well, offering such interested operator the ability to get into the A2P SMS business if it so desired.

Now, some operators are trying to introduce this charge in an effort to rachet up SMS pricing even further. While the impact on the P2P SMS is likely to be marginal since the P2P SMS traffic is relatively balanced and linked to the operator’s subscriber numbers, the impact on the A2P SMS business is likely to be substantially negative. And in going ahead with an irrational SMS interconnect charge, at least one operator is crossing the boundary of what is fair.

Continued on Monday.

    Hi Rajesh,

    SMS seems like a cash cow for these operators. And only few companies are able to monetize it well. There definitely is an opportunity to be tapped here. It makes lot more sense now what you have been saying for a while.

Advent 2015: Day 15

Ready for another Advent devotional in this series on “Parenting Jesus”?

In a small town, neighbors all know each other’s business. And Nazareth was no different. Everyone knew not only Jesus but his father and mother. Luke, in chapter 4, describes what it was like when Jesus returned to his home town. He taught in the synagogue and everyone praised him. Praised him, that is, until the day he read the prophecy from Isaiah and announced that the prophet’s words were being fulfilled that day.

Those sitting in front of Jesus were stunned. “How can this be? Isn’t this Joseph’s son?” Mark quotes them as saying, “Where did he get all his wisdom and the power to perform miracles? He is just the carpenter, the son of Mary.” (Mark 6:1-3) The obvious implication is: He certainly did not get those qualities from his parents. In other words, in the court of public opinion, Jesus was just from ordinary stock. Joseph had no fine education like Gamaliel; Jesus’ father was no great orator like Paul. Mary had no super powers. They were plain, everyday, small town folk. Maybe Joseph, perhaps Mary, felt unqualified for the huge task of raising God’s son.

If you are a parent, do you ever face times when you feel inadequate? Do you look around at others with more education, more patience or more wisdom than you possess, someone who could do a better job parenting your children? What about the rest of us? Do we ever feel we are inadequate for a task that lies before us?

As you go about your activities at home or at work today, remember God’s promises in Phil. 1:6 and in 1 Thess. 5:24: “He who began a good work in you will continue his work until it is finally finished,” and “Faithful is he who has called you. He will bring it to pass.” Don’t forget to rely on him today for all you need to accomplish your work!
