Members of the Carroll County chapter of the NAACP joined tens of thousands Saturday at the National
Mall - at the Reflecting Pool and the Lincoln Memorial - in Washington to
celebrate the 50th anniversary of the August 28, 1963 March on Washington.
It was at that time in the early 1960s that the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. (January 15,
1929-April 4, 1968) made "I have a dream" the clarion-call of the
civil rights movement at a political rally called the “March on Washington for
Jobs and Freedom.”
History continues to reflect upon the importance of the
march on Washington in 1963. One thing remains certain, it was a pivotal moment
in American history that has contributed greatly to who we are as a nation
today.

Caroline’s hands – our dried mangoes.

Long road trips require ample portions of dried mangoes in
order to properly maintain the mind, body, spirit and soul to be appropriately
prepared for the journey.
Pictured here are the all-important hands that handled the
dried mangoes on our recent trip to the 2013 Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America Churchwide Assembly in Pittsburg during the week of Aug. 12-17 in
Pittsburgh.
This picture was taken on our way up the road to Pittsburgh
on August 10, 2013. It captures a moment in which the dried mangoes are in
Caroline’s hands as she waxes poetically upon the importance and spirituality
of this food of the Gods…
The Assembly took “action on some 80 ‘memorials’ or requests
from synods asking for Churchwide Assembly action on significant issues,”
according to a thoughtful and comprehensive article written about the assembly
by Lutheran magazine
writer, Elizabeth Hunter, “Paperless
in Pittsburgh.” The article by Ms. Hunter appeared in the August edition
of the magazine.
Ms. Hunter noted that voting members faced “Some big
decisions … amid daily worship, prayer and Bible studies under the theme
"Always Being Made New," based on 2 Corinthians 5:17.”
At the 2013 Lutheran Churchwide Assembly, 952 voting members
from the ELCA's 65 synods and 9,638 congregations elected a new presiding
bishop and secretary, and deliberated and adopted various budgets, financial
campaigns, social statements.
Last week, Caroline Babylon, Evelyn Babylon, Beth Clementson
and I volunteered at the 2013 Churchwide Assembly that was hosted by the
Southwestern Pennsylvania Synod.
It was the last biennial gathering of the ELCA's highest
legislative authority before the assembly transitions to a triennial cycle,
according to Ms. Hunter.
“Always being made New” was the theme of The Evangelical
Lutheran Church in American 2013 Churchwide Assembly that took place August
12-17, 2013 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, Pittsburgh, PA.

The cost of text messages often gets a bad rap, and for good reason.

The coolest running shoes at the Nike store this year are the Nike Air Max+ 2013. They retail for $180, but when you break down the costs for the materials and the manufacturing and labor at the Chinese factory where the shoes are made, you’re looking at a product that costs less than $10 a pop. The remaining $170 covers marketing (to make you believe the shoes are worth the premium price) and a handsome profit for Nike. The company reports revenues of about $25 billion a year.
It works the same way for many products in the tech world. As gadget enthusiasts, we accept the idea that products are worth what we’re willing to pay for them, and not what they cost in terms of product development, manufacturing, and materials. Nonetheless, it’s time to name names. Here are some of most egregiously high profit margins in the world of consumer tech.

Famed crime novelist Elmore Leonard dies
By Dennis McLellan August 20, 2013
Elmore Leonard, whose character- and dialogue-driven urban
tales of con men, hustlers and killers such as "Glitz," "Get
Shorty" and "Out of Sight" earned him a reputation as one of
America's greatest crime novelists and one of Hollywood's favorite storytellers,
died Tuesday. He was 87…. http://www.herald-mail.com/breakingnews/la-me-elmore-leonard-20130821%2C0%2C1238346.story
[….]
Leonard was newly married when he launched his literary
career in 1951, moonlighting as a writer of western short stories for the
then-thriving pulp magazine market.
His first western novel, "The Bounty Hunters," was
published in 1953. Four more of his western novels were published over the next
eight years, while two of his short stories were being turned into movies —
"The Tall T," starring Randolph Scott; and "3:10 to Yuma,"
starring Glenn Ford (and remade in 2007 with Russell Crowe).
After the market for westerns dried up in the 1960s, Leonard
switched to writing contemporary crime novels, the literary genre that made him
a worldwide critical favorite and earned him fans ranging from Nobel laureate
Saul Bellow to President George W. Bush to director Quentin Tarantino.
Beginning with "The Big Bounce" in 1969, Leonard
turned out dozens of crime novels, including "Mr. Majestyk,"
"Swag," "Gold Coast," "Split Images" and
"Stick." His 1983 novel "La Brava" earned him an Edgar
Allan Poe Award from the Mystery Writers of America…. http://www.herald-mail.com/breakingnews/la-me-elmore-leonard-20130821%2C0%2C1238346.story
McLellan is a former Times staff writer.
