This summer we are considering the book of Proverbs. Why are we doing that, you might ask. Fair question. The title of our sermon series is called, The Book of Suburbs, as in: Because this is the place we find ourselves, how do we pull back the veil and really see what it is about our place that de-forms us. Proverbs is the true book of how to live and thrive in the suburbs by actually subverting the status quo and telling a better story of human thriving.  Strangely, in order to live well and love God, love people, and love life in our context (or any context, for that matter), we need more than Bible knowledge because the truth is that 90% of the decisions we make on a daily basis are not covered with a chapter and verse in the Bible. Think about it—the things that have vexed my soul throughout my life are questions for which there is no clear direction from the Bible. Things like: What is the best ministry context to use my gifts so that there is mutual thriving between pastor and people? What do I do when I have a wayward child in the far country? What school is best for my children? Should I say something to someone or let it pass? On and on, it goes. What are we to do then? The answer from the Bible is to get wisdom. In fact, when Solomon is about to be crowned king and God asks him what he wants, he asks for wisdom. Keep in mind, Solomon is instructed and immersed in the Scripture; he has a man after God's own heart for a father; he has knowledge and principles galore. Yet when he looks at the task in front of him, he says: I am a like a child; the immensity and complexity of life is so overwhelming, I feel foolish. And so, what he asks for is wisdom.  Wonder why? Well on Sunday, we start an important pilgrimage through the book of Proverbs. I am so excited about this and also other things going on. We introduce Greg Aydt, our new Youth Pastor, and I can't wait for you to meet him. Plan to come early. as we have a brunch at 9:30 so you can meet him in person and introduce yourself. Also, what is more glorious than baptizing an infant—yes, that is all happening this Sunday. And last, but certainly not least, after worship we are having a Congregational Meeting where we will present and vote on our Operating Budget for our new fiscal year that starts July 1.  In between all of this, you might want to just wander through our facility, as it has been transformed into something magical for VBS.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- I'm not sure that anyone can explain how property taxes are figured out, but we're going to give it a shot. You get the county, the city, and the school district, all with their hands in the pie. There are 47-some classifications of properties, despite there being four main classifications (residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural). But as with all things, government makes everything more complicated. Also, your home value is not tied to how much you pay. Your taxes do not move up and down with your home value. They figure out how much money they need, and break it up among property owners based on your property. Leave it to government to confuse the issue further, with a number of levies for each government body. Schools have operating levies and deferred maintenance levies. Hennepin county has the general levy, but also a Railroad Authority levy and a Housing Authority levy. Why don't they just take the money and split it up afterward? We take a stab at some solutions for a simpler way of figuring out and assessing property taxes. Maybe we're on to something? We also discuss Tim Walz's strange behavior in rushing to sign an executive order where the state of Minnesota will not assist another state when an adult bring a child into the state for gender-affirming care, even if it's illegal in the state they are coming from or the adult has no legal right to bring the child to Minnesota. They are refusing to get involved, even if the adult is breaking the law (i.e. non-custodial parent or other adult bringing a child without parental consent). Our state government has lost it's ever-lovin' mind, and we're all suffering for it, despite the fact that 49% of the state didn't vote for these clowns. Have you checked out our Spotify playlist? At the beginning of each episode, Jason quotes some song lyrics that have to do with the subject matter of the podcast. Andrew never knows what they are, but now he can… and so can you!

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 1-20-23. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of January 23 and January 30, 2023.  This update of a January 2015 episode is the second of three planned episodes this winter on Virginia's General Assembly. MUSIC – ~15 sec – instrumental. That's part of  “World's Too Big,” by Blacksburg, Va., musician Kat Mills, from her 2006 album, “Two.”  It opens an episode on what is one of the biggest jobs, and has some of the biggest impacts, of any General Assembly session: the state budget.  The Commonwealth operates on a biennial budget, covering two fiscal years, which run from July 1 through June 30.  In sessions in even-numbered years, the General Assembly sets the budget for the upcoming two years, and typically in every session the Assembly considers amendments to the current budget.  Virginia's current two-year budget, as approved last year by the Assembly and the governor, is about $163 billion dollars, with about $159 billion for operating expenses and the rest for capital expenses. Now, have a listen to the music for about 20 more seconds, and see how much of that amount you think goes to water-related matters. MUSIC – ~22 sec – lyrics: “World's too big to see in one lifetime.  The world's too big to see in one day.  And we work too hard to get much perspective; I'd like to see things a different way.  World….” According to the Virginia Department of Planning and Budget, the Commonwealth's current two-year operating-expense budget funds about 210 programs.  Of these, Water Radio identified 23 that relate to activities that can affect water, either directly, or indirectly through air, land, or energy management.  Those 23 programs account for about $3.3 billion in the current two-year budget.  Here's a sample of those programs, to give you a sense of where Virginia's water-related dollars go: some direct water-connection programs are boating safety, coastal lands mapping, drinking water improvement, marine life management, port facilities, seafood promotion, and water protection; and some indirect water-connection programs are air protection, disaster and emergency preparedness, forest management, minerals management, and regulation of public utilities. If you'd like more information about the big, complicated subject of Virginia's state budget, you can get details from the Department of Planning and Budget, online at dpb.virginia.gov. Thanks to Kat Mills for permission to this episode's music, and, in the spirit of a subject too big for one short Water Radio episode, we close with about 35 more seconds of “World's Too Big.” MUSIC – ~38 sec – Lyrics: “World's too big to see in one lifetime.  What do you think you'll do this year in the world, world, world, in the world?” SHIP'S BELL Virginia Water Radio is produced by the Virginia Water Resources Research Center, part of Virginia Tech's College of Natural Resources and Environment.  For more Virginia water sounds, music, or information, visit us online at virginiawaterradio.org, or call the Water Center at (540) 231-5624.  Thanks to Ben Cosgrove for his version of “Shenandoah” to open and close this episode.  In Blacksburg, I'm Alan Raflo, thanking you for listening, and wishing you health, wisdom, and good water.

St. Patrick Presbyterian Church, EPC

It is easy to think of the Bible giving us wisdom and guidance in dealing with the lonely, the broken, and the outcast. And in the book of Ruth, we are not disappointed. I mean, if the church were to look like the field of Boaz, it would be a little piece of heaven in a place. But what we don't expect to see in the Bible is talk about romance! And yet we find one of the most delicately sensual passages in all the Bible this week. When Naomi is thinking about securing rest for Ruth, she has a plan. Rather than waiting for something to fall out of the sky, she thinks of a person––a redeemer––and suddenly we are in a passage teaming with sexual tension. If that seems hard for us to get our head around, it may be evidence of bad theology and the fact that we tend to get our ideas of romance from novels and movies, rather than letting Scripture be our guide. But what if romance exists because God is a romantic? As one writer says, The Bible speaks not only of ardent love between men and women, but it presents God himself as a lover and his courting of creation as the Great Romance. (Rodney Clapp, Christianity Today, February 1, 2001) So, for the next two weeks, we will be at the threshing floor of Boaz. Wonders await. Hope to see you Sunday! And, just a reminder, we have a Congregational Meeting immediately following morning worship to approve our Operating Budget for 2021-2022. Blessings, Jim

Today's "Capitol Ideas" is a sort of civics lesson, but more interesting than the ones you took -- or didn't take -- in high school. Chief House budget writer Rep. Timm Ormsby reflects on how a multi-billion-dollar state operating budget takes shape: the long days and even longer nights, the tough decisions, the unheralded bipartisanship and, again, more tough decisions. This is background you probably haven't heard before, and it's definitely worth 16 minutes of your time.

Hidden costs are those unforeseen expenses added on to purchases. We all know them. They can be minor, such as our airline charges or hotel charges. But they can also be major, such as investigations, litigation, or disaster recovery. The more research we do, the more we find these hidden costs and it is our responsibility as loss prevention professionals, to discover and resolve them. This webinar is designed to help you do that with 3 ways to impact your Opex by better managing the hidden cost of your lock and key management program.Sponsored by InstaKey Security ServicesSpeaker: Cita Doyle, LPC Vice President, Sales and Marketing at InstaKey Security Services

Would you doubt us if I told you we discussed Antonio Brown? Well you shouldn't because this is the straight shooter express. Of course we talk about the speed this guy went from cuckoo to (allegedly) criminal. Next topic has us discussing the eye-popping $1B (as in billions) yearly operating budget of the Barcelona Football Club. This is why we have NFL games in London and Mexico City, the power of the global market. Can Goodell guide the invisible hand toward NFL global expansion or is the uniquely American sport only a domestic hit. Speaking of domestic hits it looks like Futbol Americano is the only thing still being watched on broadcast television even with future Hall of Fame quarterbacks going down. We wrap this up with a new Tequilla partnership between Michael Jordan, the Buss family and other NBA 1 percenters.

Gringo Star Street Bar Investors Still Waiting for Return on Investment

Veritas News Network - Truth is Trending

When the Gringo Star Street Bar in Tempe, Arizona closed abruptly in mid-January, investors said they were taken by surprise when they learned via Facebook post that the popular nightspot had closed its doors for good. “I had no idea it closed,” said a Tempe resident at the time, who had invested in the establishment. His sentiment was echoed by other investors, who wished to remain anonymous for fear of financial retribution. The surprise was not that the establishment had closed, but that shareholders had learned of the closure on social media. As reported January 20, a post on the bar’s Facebook page alerted customers to the closing. There was no explanation given and numerous questions from patrons were left unanswered. In March, Wright told shareholders that once the books were reconciled, they would receive their return on investment. Months passed without payment. Now the former managers are in a bitter legal battle with Wright, alleging he misappropriated Gringo Star’s funds.  Conversely, Wright is alleging it was not he, but his former managers, who misappropriated funds. The bar opened in 2013, offering arcade games, food and drinks, dancing, and street art. The 6,500 square foot bar on the corner of 5th Street and Mill Avenue was once home to the Library Bar and Grill, another of Wright’s restaurant bars. Gringo Star’s opening was highly anticipated from both a consumer and investor standpoint. Mill Avenue is popular for its unique taverns and nightlife which draws patrons from nearby Arizona State University. From amigos to antagonists Investors said things started going south after a couple of years. They no longer received dividends and found Wright difficult to reach. They allege when they asked questions about their investment or the financial health of the Gringo Star Street Bar, they were either ignored or not given an answer. When they did receive an answer, they allege it wasn’t a favorable one. In fact, two investors said Wright would answer with a “F**k you” if he didn’t like what was being asked of him. Veritas News was provided with a string of text messages allegedly between a shareholder and Wright that does show crude language. At that time, Wright did provide a profit and loss statement for 2017.  The records show total sales of just over $1 million, but with overall sales down 39.4 percent. Currently faced with arbitration through the American Arbitration Association (AAA), Wright sent a memo to investors stating, “The proforma Operating Budget provided to you prior to your investment projected that operating expenses would total 18.27% of gross sales. Actual operating expenses of Gringo Star from 2013 totaled 18.13% of adjusted gross revenues (i.e., total gross revenues less $1,027,902.00 of drinks and food that (former managers) comped to unknown persons during their management of Gringo Star).” It continues, “The proforma Opening Budget projected that corporate overhead would total 3.01% of gross sales. From 2013 to 2017 corporate overhead actually totaled 3.03% of adjusted gross sales (gross less [former managers’] giveaways).” No date has been set for the arbitration.
