Mr. Joseph Carton as Martin Ames in The Thing in the Window, a tale well calculated to keep you in suspense.  Yes, sir. Right here, out this window. Now look across the street, no, directly across the opposite apartment. See that window? About three windows in from the left with a kind of blue draperies. Uh-huh. There's someone sitting there in a chair, he hasn't moved all night. I think he must be dead. Dead! Lord and mercy, Mr. Ames. Take a good look at him and tell me what you think, Mary. Okay, but I don't favor looking at a corpse, Mr. Ames. It's unlucky. Now, which window did you say? Third one over. I wish I had me glasses with me. Oh, there, right there. Where are my fingers pointing? I'm afraid I don't see it yet, Mr. Ames. Oh, look, the winner with the blue draperies, he's wearing a sort of a gray suit.  No, sir. But you've got good eyes, Mr. Ames. If you see it, I'm not arguing with you. What are you going to do about it? I don't know. I just began to notice it last night, I guess. I first have to be sure the man is really dead. That's right, Mr. Ames. You don't want to get yourself into any trouble. Maybe he's only sleeping, or maybe he's incapacitated. Maybe the poor soul's a stricken invalid, huh? Maybe. Yes? Oh, hello. I'm Martin Ames. Are you the superintendent of this apartment house? That's what it says on the door. I've come to inquire about one of your tenants. What is it? Do you want to know? I live across the street and, well, I'll be frank with you, sir. I've been looking out of my window across to this building now for two and a half days, and there seems to be someone dead in one of the windows. Eh? Which window? It's the 10th floor. I've counted up from the street, and it's 10 stories up. There's a window with blue draperies, about three windows in from the left. Facing toward me, that isn't. There's a man sitting there, slumped down in a chair. Ah, just a minute. I'll get out my chart. 10th floor up from the street, eh? Well, that's really the ninth floor. The lobby counts one. We've got two apartments along the front of the house. It's in the front, yeah? That's right. Eh, now, three windows in from the left. Eh, that would be 9B, a four room. Ah, that couldn't be right. 9B is two ladies. You say this is a man? Yes, the face isn't clearly visible. The head slumped forward. But he's wearing a gray suit, and he's sitting in a high wingback chair. Eh, I don't place him. Maybe he doesn't belong in the house. Maybe he was visiting somebody. As I say, this is all conjecture, of course. He may not be dead, but I've watched him a good deal. I'm home a lot in the daytime. My profession, the stage, doesn't take up too much of my time, and it looks quite suspicious. Okay, I'll check on it. Mind if I stick around? Oh, no, no, sit down. I'll give 9B a ring first on the house phone. Oh? Oh, Miss Landis? Yes, this is Miss Landis. Who is this? Oh, this is Mr. Anson, the super. Eh, everything all right up there, Miss Landis? Everything all right? Oh, yes. Yes, of course. Okay, Miss Landis. Thanks very much. That's that. No soap on 9B. 9A is in the country. Well, anyway, if I got the window straight, like you said it ought to be 9B. The two single ladies? Yeah, only it couldn't be them. They're real old maids. They've been living in the house for years. Real old-fashioned type, you know. Say, if they knew you thought there was a man in that apartment, oh, the two of them would just about jump out of their skins home. Well, I don't know what to say. You're sure it must be that apartment? Oh, yeah, yeah, that's a place, all right, but you probably just made a little mistake. You know how your eyes can play tricks on you? After all, it is a pretty wide street. I don't think I made any mistake. Answer speaking. Oh, uh, hello, Mr. Hansen. This is Mr. Ames. Again? It's not there. But, Mr. Hansen. I checked up on the two apartments this morning. 9A is back from the country. Everybody's okay. And 9B is out walking the dog. No dead bodies in the whole place. But I can see it. It's still there. Okay, just where? Will you just tell me where? In the same window. The one you said was 9B.  No, no, but I asked him if anybody was sick or dead, and he said no. You asked them? Well, why don't you search that apartment? What do you mean? Break in while they're out? No, search it while they're there. Ring the bell, walk in and do it. Yeah, not without a search warrant from the police. These apartments, you know, don't belong to me. I just take care of the building for the company. Then let's call the police. Well, not me, Mr. I didn't see no dead body up there. But I will. After all, somebody's got to do something. I still maintain, Officer. These two sisters are as refined ladies as you could find anywhere. High class, nice church-going ladies. I used to teach school up here at PS33. Well, that don't mean a thing. As it happens, there's a play on Broadway right now on which two nice old ladies commit murder after murder. They got a dog in there. Now, will you tell me one dog that would stay for almost a week in a flat with a dead person? I'm not telling you anything. All I know, this gentleman Mr. Ames here reported a stiff over here. And if he says there is one, there is. Until it's proved different. Right, Mr. Ames? Well, I keep seeing the thing day in and day out. I'm not working at the moment and being home so much. None of the other neighbors have complained. Dead bodies ain't exactly... It's right this way, please. I hope they're home. They ain't home. You got a pass key, haven't you? Well, yeah, we're not supposed to use it, though, unless for an emergency. This is an emergency. A dog bite? Sometimes. I'm awfully sorry, Miss Landis, but there's been some kind of mix-up. These two gentlemen want to look over your apartment. But why? It's not for rent. Well, I know. It's just... Well, they want to search around and check up on... Come on, come on. Cut out the pullover. Hey, look, lady, a dead body's been reported sitting on one of your windows. What? Yeah, yeah. This guy lives across the street and he's been seeing it over here for a week. Oh, come on, now. Open up. A dead body? But that's impossible. My sister and I live here all alone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know all about it. Excuse me a minute. I'll call my sister. Oh, come on.  Come on, give me the Pasquiancin. They won't do no good. They get a chain on the door from the inside. Open up with the name of the law! How do you do? I am Vivian Landis. May I ask what this is all about, please? Certainly, lady. I've got a search warrant here made out by this gentleman to search your place. He says you've got a dead body in there. A dead body? Well, that's perfectly ridiculous. Yeah, isn't it? But it's been reported. And kindly take that door off the chain and let us through. Of course. First, may I ask how did this peeping Tom see into our apartment? I thought, Mr. Anson, that we were quite private. Well, you see... He lives across the street on the same level. I just happened to be... Oh, well, then we shall have to keep our shades down in the future. Although one would think a grown man would have something better to do. Do come right in, gentlemen. Make yourselves right at home. Thanks. Is he coming in here too, Mr. Busybody? No, he doesn't have to, if you don't want him to. Well, I most definitely don't. Okay, Mr. Ramesh, you better stay outside. Officer, I... Oh, he does want to poke around in our private rooms. Is that it? Maybe he had some ulterior motive in worming his way in. Maybe he's come to get the lay of the land so he can break in someday to rob us. Okay, okay. He's not coming in. Now, let's take a look at your windows, lady. Yes, officer. Now, what's the big idea? You didn't find it? No. That's very strange. Yeah? The only thing strange about it is your eyesight. You want to get your glasses changed. There wasn't anything in 9B? No. I don't understand it. How could I have seen it so distinctly and it not there? But perhaps it isn't in the window now. Perhaps they hid it while we were waiting outside the door. Hid it? Now, where do you hide a dead body in a four-room flat? I looked in all the closed closets under the sofas in the chests. Perhaps they got it out of the back into the service elevator. Single-handed?  Perhaps they had accomplices, perhaps. Oh. You probably think... Oh, it's so terrible to keep seeing it and seeing it and feeling it. Slowly decaying there in secret. Why, the thing could be there for weeks. It's so high above the streets. Perhaps it'll never be found. Perhaps it's already being destroyed. Well, then, if it's gone, what do you got to worry about? You don't have to sit and look at it no more. I hope it is.  I haven't slept for nights, keeping vigil. I'm in a nervous state. I haven't been this nervous in years. Yeah, I can see that. Well, why don't you try forgetting it for a while? Try not to look over into that window. Or go away for a change. You've done what you could, Mr. Reims. If there is a stiff over there, well, that's my business, ain't it? And if there isn't... You mean you think I may be... I'm not saying nothing, Mr. Reims. But if I was you, I'd try catching up on my night's sleep. Miss Landis, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time of night, but I really... I'm desperate. I haven't anywhere else to turn. What? Who is this? This is Mr. Ames. Martin Ames, your neighbor, that went across the street. I was in your apartment yesterday morning with the police, or rather, I was almost in your apartment. Your sister wouldn't let me in. Please don't take me apest, Miss Landis. I don't mean to annoy you. It was only because I was so desperate that I initiated that search. It's quite all right. Goodbye. No, no, no. Please don't hang up, because it's worse now than it ever was. Miss Landis, I've been sitting here opposite your apartment, staring into your windows, and I... I'm only asking you to help me, Miss Landis. Help me just a little. Help you? It's still there, Miss Landis. What is still there? The dead body in your window. Oh, but the police were... I know, I know. I know now it has nothing to do with you. But would you do me just one favor, Miss Landis? Would you go into your living room and just check once more? Oh, my... Well, perhaps I am, Miss Landis. That's what I'm trying to find out. Then perhaps your sister Vivian would help me. She's not at home. Oh, Lord. I don't see how you can see in. I pulled the shades down in there yesterday morning. I know. They're all down still. But then how can you see? I can't. At least not the actual body. It's just a silhouette. I'm not maligning you or your sister, Miss Landis. If there's someone dead in there, it's not you who are doing it. But think of me. If you could just be here and look over there and see the shadow of those quiet fingers, that shoulder, that head... Oh, please! Please, it! Tell me just one thing, Miss Landis.  A chair? A high-backed wing chair. And have you anything on it? Anything piled up? I mean, like curtains or cushions or dressmakers, dummy? Of course not! Or do you have a plant in the window in front of it? Some kind of an odd table?  No. There. Then would you do me just one more favor, Miss Landis? Please, please. And as an experiment, would you just go into the living room and move that chair from the window, please? I... Yes. Will you let us alone forever? Yes, yes, if it works. I can't tell Miss Landis and tell you to move the chair! Yes, I see. Well, thanks very much, Miss Landis. I know what I have to do now. You mean? Yes, Miss Landis. It's still there. Miss Landis? Where is it? I want to see it, at once. Oh, yes, Miss Landis, come in. I hope you'll excuse my appearance. I've just passed another sleepless night. So has my sister. And so have I. What do you mean by all this business, Miss Reims? You have frightened my poor sister nearly to death. Seeing things that aren't there when you know that they're not. I know they're not. Oh, I wish there weren't. I wish to have a night never looked out that window. I wish those walls were solid stone and your walls... Oh!  Oh, am I? I wish I were, but I'm perfectly sane and well. I went to a psychiatrist yesterday and guess what he told me? That there's nothing wrong with me, nothing. I can't believe that. Oh, to you, I suppose it's a form of madness to persist and persist in seeing this hideous image. But not to me, Miss Landis. No. I finally come to an entirely different conclusion. And what is that? The supernatural. The supernatural? A ghost? What nonsense, Mr. Reims? Yes, I suppose it is nonsense to you. You've been a schoolteacher. You believe in logic and common sense.  But I'm an artist. I've always had a feeling for the thing beyond, the intangible, the shadowy. We are children, Miss Landis. Children playing along the edge of the ocean. We laugh and toy with the waves and mock fright. But sometime, sometime one of us slips down into the darkness. Sometimes the depths rise and we glimpse the yawning fangs of the eternal. Well, you put things rather oddly, Mr. Reims. Just exactly what do you mean? Simply this. I checked on that building with the real estate agents yesterday afternoon, after I left my psychiatrist, and there was a murder. In our apartment? Well, they reported and said, you know how they try to hush those things up? It was a man, a young man, the lover of one of the tenants, a Miss Sweetser. Sweetser? That's the name of the people who lived there before us. They were an elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Sweetser. I never saw any Miss Sweetser. She died. She was the daughter.  Oh, hi. Perfectly awful. It's rather a ghastly coincidence, isn't it? Was it out our window? Who knows. She must have been a very neurotic person, though this Miss Sweetser half crazed almost with love or jealousy. I checked on the details in an old newspaper. She cut his throat, nearly decapitated. Oh, good. Mercy. It's sad that when they lifted his body out of the chair later, his head almost rolled. Excuse me. Mr. Ames, I'd rather not hear. I still can't believe if there is something, if there could possibly be something. Why haven't we seen it, too? Why should you be... Haven't you seen it, Miss Landis? No! You sure? Never? Perhaps in the middle of the night, getting up and passing that room, seeing that chair outlined against the window, just in passing, perhaps? You've never had a glimpse? No, I really must be going. Please stay and look at it. I want you to see it out of my window. My sister Elaine, she's very nervous. I can't leave her so long alone. Then how will I know how? Miss Landis, I thought you came here especially. It'll only take a minute. It's right in here in the bedroom. I just have to let up the Venetian blind. Miss Landis, don't go! Landis... Hello. Oh, hello, Sergeant. This is Ames, Martin Ames. I just called to let you know. I think you're right about that good night's sleep.  Yes, I'm all tired of in knots. I don't know what to think. Oh, they did. Yes, I saw the moving van in front of the house, but I didn't know it was those sisters. Couldn't take it, huh? Well, I can't take it much longer myself. Marty, bravo, bravissimo, boy. Shh, not so loud. Why, all the mystery. It's a superintendent. He doesn't like me. I should think he wouldn't like you grabbing this beautiful apartment right from under his nose. He probably had a promise to a friend. But you've got it now, Ronald, just as I said. Oh, so I have, oh boy, so I have. And it's beautiful. You know, I'm crazy about it. Marty, you've done yourself. You've been more than jealous. Oh, thank nothing of it, Ronald. I'm glad to do it for such a distinguished colleague. Well, it certainly was nice of you. And I wish I could do something in return, Marty. I really do. Perhaps that play I'm doing next season. You know, there's a part in it, a rather small part, but very necessary. Oh, thanks, just the same. But I'm doing pretty well just now, Ronald. I don't know how you found it, Marty, in this housing shortage. You know, why even the superintendent was for rent? When your call came to my manager, I left rehearsal. I wouldn't trust it to anyone but myself. And if the whole cast just standing there while I came over. And when I asked this gloomy character, Enson, he said he'd heard nothing about it. I insisted, of course. I told him who I was. Finally, he called up. Sure enough, it seems these two sisters who lived here just decided to move on. Really? I'll say I hope you didn't mention my name, though, if Enson known it.  Oh, no, no, no. You asked me not to. I think my own name was enough. Seriously, Marty, how did you know? Were they friends of yours? Oh, no, no, it's a rather long story. Here, let it sit down, shall we, in the living room. No, no, no, no. You take the chair. I guess they must have left that when they moved out. No, thank you. Well, to be frank, Ronald, I got this apartment by a ruse. A ruse, Marty. What kind of ruse? Pretty nasty, wasn't I? I frightened the last tenants away. I told them I saw a dead man sitting here in this window. No, no, no, not really. How clever of you. Of course there was. Oh, no, you see, I live across the street, directly across in that apartment there with the striped curtains. One night just sitting there late, I got an amusing thought. There was a kind of shadow across this chair, the one that you were sitting in. It reminded me a little bit of a corpse, and it came to me that it might be fun to create a great part, a character, a corpse that wasn't there. I don't follow you quite. Some actors need a play, Ronald, to create a role. Others, the great ones, work out their own dramas. I proceeded to invent a part for myself. I witnessed the innocent bystander across the street, who saw a corpse in here, and I kept seeing it, and kept seeing it, and finally, by the power of suggestion, it became real enough to frighten them away. Very clever. Wasn't it rather drastic? I always hoped we'd be neighbors, Ronald. As a matter of fact, the whole idea for this thing came to me that day in October, when you turned me down for that part outside of Sardis, remember? You said you were looking for a place then. Oh, yes. It was then I thought how nice it would be to see you right across the street, sitting in this window. I simply had to bring it about. No, no, no, Ronald, don't get up yet. I'm not through. Is it really a boy? I'm afraid the gang at the theatre, you know? They don't even know that I'm here. People always wait for you, don't they, Ronald? I could call them for you, of course, but the phone's been disconnected. Well, I'm afraid that I'm... Which way's the door, old boy? Now, really, Marty, it's been very kind of you. What's the matter? Don't you like the apartment, Ronald? Aren't you going to take it up for all my work? Oh, yes, yes, I like it very much. The door's locked. Yes, Ronald. I'm afraid you'll have to find your way out alone. There. That'll keep you quiet, huh? Silence always became you better than all that ratting and glibness and charm, Ronald. And now I've got the part for you. A part to end all parts. You play it entirely in a chair. There isn't much action, not a line, to say you just sit, Ronald.  It'll be the greatest performance of your career. You liked to hog all the fattest roles for yourself, didn't you? Well, this is a part that's been talked about up and down the street for weeks. You'll play the part of a ghost, a corpse that never was, a hallucination in my brain. And, over your audience, I will. I, the insignificant outmoded ham who wasn't fit to appear in your precious plays. But good enough to put you here, Ronald. Who's the better actor now, Ronald? Goodbye, Ronald. See you across the street. Presented by Roma Wine, Roma America's favorite wines.

And our star will be the most provocative European-leading lady to visit our shores in many a moon, Miss Lily Palmer. Well, I've never missed a suspense show yet, and certainly next week sounds even more intriguing than usual. Good night. Good night, Joe.

Russia claims that US troops have been killed in strike on patriots in Ukraine. American military personnel may have been killed in a Russian strike on the United States supplied Patriot air defense system supplied to Ukraine according to a Moscow-aligned lawmaker in comments reported by Kremlin-backed media. When asked for a response to the claims, a spokesperson for the Pentagon told Newsweek, I can confirm no US injuries because we have no US service members in the fight. Sheremet, a state Duma deputy from the occupied Crimean region, told state news agency Ria Novosti that two Patriot air defense systems had been targeted by the Russian army in the Donetsk region. During the destruction of the Patriot air defense system, US military members also may have been killed, he said. Social media users emphasized that it was not an entire Patriot system worth around $400 million that was reportedly destroyed but rather two Patriot launchers which cost $10 million each. The Kremlin-backed news agency reported that Sheremet had said that the technical difficulty of the Patriot system meant that American military specialists could be secretly sent to Ukraine to service it. Sheremet's claims about US personnel being on the ground in the war which the US has taken pains not to be directly involved in have not been independently verified. No further evidence was presented for the claims. It follows speculation on Russian language media outlets, in particular on Telegram, about the Russian Iskandar missile strike in the Pokrovsk area of Donetsk Oblast on Saturday. The Russian Defense Ministry released a video that it said showed the moment of impact of a strike on what it had initially designated as an S-300 missile system. But Russian and Ukrainian media cited a report by Forbes that said two of the apparent Patriot launchers exploded almost certainly killing their crews following a direct hit on the Ukrainian convoy from potentially hundreds of miles away. This was the first time in the war that Russia had been able to hit components of the US supplied air defense systems according to the Forbes report. The Patriots arrived in Ukraine in April 2023 and their ability to target aircraft, cruise missiles and shorter range ballistic missiles fired by Russia added an extra dimension to Kiev's fight against Moscow's aggression.


My name is Salerubio, I'm a lecturer at the University of Edinburgh, but I am also the Director of Math History Games, which is a game studio, a small game studio that creates educational games. I'll talk about what educational games means right now, but I'm presenting or researching what we are doing in terms of how to use video games and special game design to explain archaeology to the main audience. So if you take a look at archaeology in video games, usually what you have is a copy of the stereotype that you see in other media, such as the classic ones in the archives. But then you have your own archaeology into the video games, like Tomb Raider or the Uncharted franchise. They are really big franchises that they are super famous in video games, but all of them use the same tropes about archaeology and archaeology. So that's more or less the vision that you get from archaeology in mainstream video games. The problem is that, obviously you say, okay, this is, let's say, an entertainment game, so what about when you try to make a game to explain something? So when you create a school of entertainment or education in video games, the problem is that if your goal is education instead of having an interesting game, an engaging game, let's say the perspective of the public of this game is not great. People think that these games are boring because usually they are, especially compared to, let's say, what you can play. I mean, if you have this high number of hours and you want to spend a game, you want the game to be contained, if it's not, you will move to a different game. That's quite interesting because even in the case of big games such as Assassin's Creed, so you have $200 million of budget and they created an educational tool from this game. What they essentially did is they removed all the fun parts of the game and then they created a guided vision to eat it. So it's like, okay, $200 million, that's everything that you can come in terms of education. So certainly you don't have more ideas than that in terms of time to say something in an interesting way. So what we think is that if you take a look at what video games can offer, some of these things can be really useful for education. Maybe they are problem-solving. It's a problem-solving mechanism that can translate into some interesting story. So the idea is that you have to learn something in order to solve these puzzles. So that's generally the definition of a game itself. So the question is, if you can use this design element of learning and problem-solving to fix something about that technology. The case study we are working on right now is called Access Tops. This is a game that tries to explain the story of this one of the most important sites in panellistic Europe at Acuerta. And the idea is to play human evolution but also findings of these species and try to break some stereotypes about games, sorry about archaeology such as for example that these species were not really smart or that gender specialization was already something if you take a look at the kind of things that you can see in other video games. So what we did is a small project, as you can see here, but I will explain the decisions we took in four different areas reached into game design. The theme is a theme, so it's a refined concept of the game. Everything about this theme, and in no case we chose transcendence. So it's like, yes, you have a different species, you have a million years of chronology, but there is a theme that there's something more important and stable than the different individuals which is the concept of hominids or human, if you want, or human evolution. So everything, this is the main menu, so the main menu with this sky, with the stars, it's kind of relating to this sense of transcendence because all the hominids, despite of what the sky was, they were seeing, they were seeing stars. So it's something that links all the different species. Then you have lore, lore in games is the knowledge that you transmit to the players through different mechanisms called expositions. So what we did here is, yes, you can take a look at it. But the important thing is that the game mechanics have this lore included, so if you don't know what's a chopper, the best way of learning what it is is to make one and then use it to some specific actions. So in this way, you learn what is exactly the story line. The story line, that's quite a 3D one if you talk about a million years of story because that's not story, I can't beat a num. So what we did is we took a different approach. The idea here is that we take some, a kind of savior, this is, I'm from the Golden Age, and the idea here is that this group of savior is explaining stories about their past, about the legend of their ancestors, and that's a skill that we use to introduce stories of different hominids. So some of these species are only underclass, some of them are about antecesors, and the idea here is that you have a link between all the different species, that is this group of sapiens, and for this reason you are also relating the player to the species that is actually telling the stories. So this is the idea, you start with the introduction and then you go to the species and you start playing with the different species such as the emancipator and the sacros. Then you have the mechanics, and in here what we have is very specific goals such as unplug a mountain gamma patch that you can go there and do some stuff. And the different actions that solve this puzzle to achieve these goals are actions that are related to hunter-gatherer life, and this is what we know about what they did. So that's more or less the idea. Here you have for example things like in all games hunters are made. It's quite an event of a species, that's what everybody is doing. So we simply change that, and then what we do is the different actions for antecesors and the under-touch, if in one group, let's say that the hunter is made, and the other one lives in the other way around. In this way, even if we are not telling it, we are showing that the different actions were made by the two channels. Also with children, we are older people, these are things that you usually cannot see in mainstream media games. Here you have events. That's another thing that these environmental events have happened and you have seen which one of them too will happen. That's also a mechanism to add events and knowledge of these times such as for example climate change, environmental change, relations with other plants. So all of these things are condensed in this format so we don't have to think about it. The idea here is that we are playing with the imagination of the player to add, let's say, the gaps that we cannot really play with, graphics or with. And finally, in terms of law and exposition, another thing that is really important is what's called environmental narrative, meaning that there are lots of things that you don't need to explain if you show it. So here we have a lot of findings from what we know, for example, the animals that we have, all the animals of the game are based on what they have found, the different tools, the materials of the tools, or even the fact that they have to their bodies. So you don't need to explain that if you show that the animals have the bodies tattooed, the player will already see it. To conclude, the idea here is that we believe that these are gaps between this current and terminal and current engagement approaches to games that we can actually exploit. But most people don't see that again, which means they are not funny. Let's say the game will be a level change again. Thank you very much.


That is how we say good morning and welcome to another Sunday here at First Unitarian Society where independent thinkers gather in a safe, nurturing environment to explore issues of social, spiritual and ethical significance as we try to make a difference in this world. I'm Steve Goldberg, a proud, highly esteemed, multi-talented member of this congregation, and gotta be truthful once in a while. I'd like to extend a very special and warm welcome to any guests, visitors or newcomers. This is your first time at First Unitarian Society. I'm sure that you'll find it is a special place and we invite you to join us for our fellowship hour immediately following the service. Speaking of the service, this would be a perfect time to silence those electronic devices that you just will not need for the next hour because during the next hour you'll be enjoying today's service which I know will touch your heart, stir your spirit and trigger one or two new thoughts. We're really glad you're here, we're especially glad to have so many youngsters with us and we're gonna get to meet them in a few moments and I invite you to enjoy today's service. Please join now in a moment of centering silence so we can be fully present with each other this morning. Please join in our in-gathering hymn. Please rise in all the ways that we do. Sing together hymn number 12, Oh Life That Make It, All Things New. We gather in community to rest from our labors, to greet our neighbors and to open our being to insight and intuition of that greater reality of which we are a part. May we find in our time together inspiration and renewal. May we touch the holy in one another and be touched by the graciousness of life. May we find here a calm that will carry us through the days ahead. And if you will join together in the words of affirmation printed in your order of service as we light our chalice. May this flame symbol of transformation since time began. Fire our curiosity, strengthen our wills and sustain our courage as we seek what is good within and around us. And if you will take a moment now to turn and greet those around you. Today we continue our worship service with one of the more meaningful and beloved moments in the life of a congregation, the right of dedication. This is a time when we who are gathered here in this meeting house have the wonderful privilege to welcome our children into our family and religious community. And today it is our cherished assignment to welcome and pledge our care to Margaret, Rosalind, Gabriel, Isabella and Charles. Today all of us gathered here are more than casual witnesses to life's gifts and nature's marvelous creations. We are all being invited to share the joy with these parents that they take in their children and in or more fully into their lives. I speak for us all when I say that I'm grateful for this privilege as are all of us. We continue this time honored ritual because children are our present delight. By them we are reminded of life's small and large joys and wisdom and reminded of our responsibility to all of our children. Here in this community we strive to be a place where all children will find ears to listen, arms to embrace a world of experience to encourage their inquiring minds. We are blessed by their presence among us and pray that our lives will be a blessing to them. And so now I invite our parents and children to be dedicated to join us up here on the chancel. And if you all will rise in all the ways we do and join together in the pledge of dedication that is found on the insert in your order of service. It's hard. For the gift of childhood whose innocence, laughter and curiosity brings hope, joy and new understanding into our lives. We lift thankful hearts. We welcome Margaret, Rosalind, Gabriel, Isabella and Charles into this spiritual community and extend to their parents our love and support in the joys and challenges of caregiving. As these children grow we will share with them our insights, our values and dreams that we may enjoy the rich benefits of our religious heritage. Thank you if the adults will be seated but the kids will remain standing. Today we welcome Margaret, Rosalind, Gabriel, Isabella and Charles into our first Unitarian family. Soon they will be a part of our classes here and will be growing and playing and learning with you. I ask you to join us in welcoming them. Will you try to be true friends to Margaret, Rosalind, Gabriel, Isabella and Charles? Will you speak to them with kindness, treat them fairly and help them to feel at home here? If so please say we will. Thank you guys. You can be seated.  As caregivers it is your privilege and obligation to provide an environment both of security and challenge in which these young souls which you bring before us today will grow.  Will you respect as well as protect these children and bestow your love as a free and unmerited gift? If so say we do. We have many people here with our children and if you will please stand as your names are read. With Gabriel and Isabella are Jennifer Moran-Folland and Karen Archambault. With Charlie are Lindsay Dave Farnsworth, Bridget Daly, Connor, Willie Choi, Julie Katz, Grinn and Lewis, Big Brother Thomas, Nancy and Michael Fredricks, Claudia Ramirez, uh yeah is that everybody? Okay. With Margaret is Big Sister Evelyn Krueger, grandparents Loreen and Neil Krueger, Susan and Jeff Greavy and Great Aunt Sharon. And with Rosalyn is Big Sister Ella Winnie and her friends Rosalyn Woodward and Justin Woodward. To all of you I now ask, do you take upon yourselves? Yep remain standing. You're not done yet. Get back there you go. Do you take upon yourselves the privilege and responsibility to nurture, defend and support the inherent worth and dignity of these children to whom you bear a special relationship? Will you encourage them to grow in freedom and spirit and to always seek the truth? Finally will you help them to grow in love for the larger human family, to love and respect the larger community of life to which we all belong. If so please make this sacred promise by saying we will. Thank you. Please be seated. In the act of dedication we use the symbolism of water as a sign of our common heritage. There's no suggestion here of a washing away of inherited sin. Children come into this world with the limitations natural to our species but they arrive here innocent. Water here stands for vitality, the essence of life, the foundation of being. Its use here reminds us of our common bond with all embracing and ever-sustaining nature. It's also the water of our community, the waters of the world gathered at our annual water communion service. Its use here reminds us of the ever-sustaining and embracing love of community. Nora, name this child. Isabella Beth Moran. Hello down there. We dedicate you in the name of truth, the promise of love and the fellowship of this society. May you be granted clarity of thought, integrity of speech, and a compassionate heart. Nora, name this child. Gabriel John Moran. Hello. We dedicate you in the name of truth, the promise of love, and the fellowship of this society. May you be granted clarity of thought, integrity of speech, and a compassionate heart. Name this child. Charles Albus Ramirez. We dedicate you in the name of truth, the promise of love, and the fellowship of this society. May you be granted clarity of thought, integrity of speech, and a compassionate heart. This child, Rosalind Eugenia Moore. We dedicate you in the name of truth, the promise of love, and the fellowship of this society. May you be granted clarity of thought, integrity of speech, and a compassionate heart. And name this child. Margaret Grace Kruger. We dedicate you in the name of truth, the promise of love, and the fellowship of this society. May you be granted clarity of thought, integrity of speech, and a compassionate heart. We have some gifts that we wish to offer. As a token of their dedication, we give to Margaret Rosalind, Gabriel, Isabella, and Charles a rosebud. Fragrant symbol of beauty, promise, and love. This rose has no thorns, symbolizing the better world we would give our children if it were in our power. While we know that the world is not as altogether lovely as this rosebud, we hope that these children will learn to recognize the beauty and goodness which does exist, and that they will grow in wisdom and compassion, adding their own beauty to the world. And to each of them, we wish that as this flower unfolds and all its natural beauty, so may your life unfold. We also have, as a remembrance of their dedication, we give to each child a blanket, a gift from the members of our Shaw Ministry program. When you see and touch and wear this blanket, maybe you be reminded of the warmth, the support, and love of this community for your children and your family. You keep going. And we're really glad that you're here. There you go, sweetheart. I think I got it. Margaret, there you go, sweetheart. I'm working on it. We're fine. We're fine. Today we have dedicated these children. May we also dedicate ourselves this day as we contemplate the miracle of new life, as we renew in our hearts a sense of wonder and joy. May we be stirred to a fresh awareness of the sacredness of life and the divine promise of childhood. May we pledge to build a community in which all our children will grow surrounded by beauty, embraced by love, and cradled in the arms of peace. May we pass on the light of compassion and courage, and may that light burn brightly within us all. And if you will join us in welcoming these children. Bravo! Now rise in all the ways that we do for our next hymn, as our children and teachers. Hymn number 338, I seek the spirit of a child. Let's sing together.  Thank you, Drew. You may be seated. As we begin our time of reflection, we start with a reading taken from the writing of Nicola Yoon and her novel, Everything, Everything. She writes, I read once that on average we replace the majority of our cells every seven years. Even more amazing, we change the upper layers of our skin every two weeks. If all the cells in our body did this, we'd be immortal. But some of our cells, like the ones in our brains, don't renew. They age and age us. In two weeks, my skin will have no memory of your hand on mine, but my brain will remember. We can have immortality or the memory of touch, but we can't have both. Here ends the reading. So here we are in April and thus a new theme, the theme of renewal. And it is fitting, I believe, that we turn to nature as one of the most meaningful sources of wisdom as we approach this theme and the season. As writer Don Quadstrup penned, each harvest renews promises made in the spring. We live with a continuing cycle. This gives us a taste of eternity. And so we turn to examples in the lessons of nature because they remain a powerful source to us all, for even though we have worked very hard to distance ourselves from nature's power. I would argue there are still significant echoes within our very being of the ancient rhythms of life itself, profound and transformative, playful and heartbreaking, predictable and yet ever mysterious. These echoes speak of cycles and the more that we pay attention to their ancient voices, the more that we are reminded of the constant sea of change and the gift and challenge of this reality. For every bud that flowers in spring, there is a movement into the full beauty and from that place to one of waning and decay that will then in turn nourish potential renewal. It is true of the earth, it is true of humanity, both as individuals and as a community. Both the individual renewal and the renewal of community are so intricately intertwined. In some ways I have concluded I am in the renewal business. The essence of what really happens in this time of change is a renewal of energy and a focus on your shared future. The thing is that over and over again as I'm preparing to leave a congregation so many people will come to me and say I knew that this was a time of change in the congregation but what I wasn't prepared for was the power of thinking about change in my own life in the midst of this time and how much of my own life, my own important choices, my own deeper spirit has been fed by this ongoing process of thinking in the larger sense of what we are called to do. Every congregation comes to this time with some essential work and every member of the congregation as well. So how could that not be a deeply intertwined reality? Because the work of the congregation is to care for, to challenge and comfort, to continue to support the sustenance and health of every conduit of that work which is the community itself. When we talk about what we do together it is either for the people who are within this community for the greater human family or for the planet itself. And so in keeping with the lessons of nature and the seasons, William Bridges who is an expert in change has pointed out that there is a particular creativity and insight that is possible within periods of transition. In particular, Bridges calls out the idea of the nun zone, in O-N-E zone. The time between when one era ends within an organization and another one has not yet really fully begun. It is a time where there is great anxiety but also great potential for change. Great creativity is possible and far-reaching transformation can happen but it is not easy, Bridges writes. Before you begin something new you have to end what used to be. Before you can learn a new way of doing things you have to unlearn the old ways. Before you can be a different kind of person you must let go of old identities. He concludes, so beginnings depend on endings and the problem is people don't like endings in so many ways when we commemorate and honor religious times that are deeply linked with ancient holy days that are earth-centered. We are placing our liturgical finger on some ancient pulse that is very powerful and so it is with the season of Lent because underneath it all it reminds us that loss and change and at least metaphorically some sort of death is necessary for powerful life-changing transforming renewal to happen. I wonder as you are gathered in this place what are your own places in your life where change for you right now is a struggle. In the larger life of this community, this country, this world where is the change rubbing you in a tender space and in this congregation what changes continue to be difficult for you but underneath that what is possible when we journey through this time to the other side what new life may be waiting you and the larger gathering in this place what is it that we are being called to journey towards as french philosopher Henri Besson wrote to exist is to change to change is to mature and to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly so may it be. Hello everyone. I just want to say thank you again for FUS supporting the UW Odyssey project. My name is Char and the piece that I've written is called endless possibilities. The journey of education renewal interruptions the state of feeling whole again. My mind clear in focus new roads to walk hurricanes pain and circles of zen Odyssey provided me with understanding and the skills to give back tutoring youth to be exact the Madison school system was my training ground my experiences were rewarding yet some were just down right wrong no child left behind sounded on point however 12th grade senior no reading comprehension no math solving skills and no possibilities to move forward where did this cycle begin children with no hope in darkness no love for themselves poverty homelessness mental illness suicide a wicked circle where does it end my presence of showing patience encouragement conversation and love renews their empty spirit I can strive to evolve as I leave their presence body language speaks don't go I need you help inspire my hope my stomach is twisted in knots signals everywhere forget me not for one moment in my cycle of life uplifted a child created a poem listen to them read renew their inner strength to close their eyes my name is marisol consales and this is my piece called I am a thief I am a thief because I decided to steal my destiny my destiny the one predetermined before I was even born to do to do to do to do to the country and the environment in which I was born the color of my skin favoring language love opportunities the alcoholism of my parents early pregnancy immigration etc my destiny the one that the people with power one for me and for the majority of the people who were born in the same circumstances the fate of the person who has exploded in the fields working the soil that produces every vegetable of fruit that we put in our mouths the fate of a single mother who abandons herself to work they and I to provide for her children the fate of the undocumented immigrants who are forced to leave their low ones behind to become worthless poorly paid harass and necessary but not wanted in 2017 the uwodc project give me the hand I needed to get out of the dark hole call predetermined destiny I grabbed tight and I discovered that I am the owner of my own destiny I read and learned that it's possible to overcome poverty by changing my way of thinking by believing I am capable of achieving my dreams and by knowing that I can succeed even when I was set to fail my mind is my biggest enemy or my greatest ally today I am not a victim of my circumstances today I am a successful immigrant business owner a bilingual writer a Spanish teacher a hard worker mother today I am renewing my quest to be a god flag fighting injustice I am a humble human being who is not afraid of the future because I know I have the ability to change it I am the thief of my destiny thank you char and thank you mary soul for the gift of your reflections and stories it is truly the season of renewal every april when I was in seminary one of my professors would write these words from a verse in the song of songs in the hebrew scriptures across the board it would say for look the winter is past the flowers have appeared in the land the season of singing has come and the voice of the turtle dove has been heard and then he would produce a bouquet of daffodils or tulips or a hyacinth from under the table with great flourish and lead us in singing whatever him was on his heart that day and every single year even though we knew it was coming we waited for the words and we waited for the flowers we grinned from ear to ear and sang from a place deep inside that was so very grateful that we had made it through the winter and that spring was truly here my professor would then have us reflect on the same question every year he would say what in you is most alive I love that question because it speaks to renewal and it reminds us that renewal is indeed possible both within and among us we feel it when we see those first flowers of the season we feel that sense of life and possibility rising up within us yet part of me always wanted to ask him what in you is most alive how exactly do you figure that out the author immanean kozana wrote renewal of the mind is good for the soul because it allows you to be focused and gain understanding of your life choices it allows you to renew your spirit and become uplifted filled with hope renewal in this sense takes a great deal of courage and also involves a belief that these inner seasons are actually subject to both our desire and our will to change we find ourselves considering the idea of renewal as a symbolic possibility as a metaphor for the life force that is awakened within creation every year as spring emerges in full bloom what in this season can be renewed within you what in you is wanting to be most alive love courage kindness understanding whatever else within you waiting to awaken or be replenished after being depleted by time and circumstance every spring we encounter a newness which embodies hope and potential for the wholeness which is yet to be so in every april i think of that question and i think of the professor's joy in the possibility of renewal and i'm reminded of the words of margaret weatley i always thought that these words of hers would be her answer to that question of how do we find what is most alive within us notice what you care about she says assume that others share your dreams be brave enough to start a conversation that matters talk to people you know talk to people you don't know talk to people you never talked to be intrigued by the differences you hear expect to be surprised treasure curiosity more than certainty invite in everyone who cares to work on what's possible know that creative solutions come from new connections remember you don't fear people whose story you know real listening always brings people closer together trust that meaningful conversations will change your world rely on human goodness stay together so perhaps we find an answer to the how of what is alive in us here in community in hearing the stories and learning the experiences of others in sharing our own stories we can find renewal in relationship truly each week each day is a new page open to us a new opportunity for living for loving for creating justice building and rebuilding relationships renewing ourselves for finding that which is most alive within us and within others and in those connections finding a greater sense of renewal a renewal of community of this greater life we share remember that meaningful conversations will change your world may we come to greet each day each moment as the gift it is and renewed by that gift go forth in hope and in peace we have been so blessed by the sharing of char a matter sold that it is a wonderful thing to be able to remind us that our offering is a recipient giving to the Odyssey project and so by your generosity we can allow more people to have that life-changing encounter with the humanities and to go on to rediscover what is possible for them we also invite you to take a moment to read more about what else the Odyssey project does in the red fours and they will be out in the commons and i know they would love to have you come by and find out even more and i know they're looking

Good to see you Hope it's not too cold up there where you are lead up in Canada. Good to see you rich Chuck Craig everyone Bali everybody Good to see you all. All right guys. So while listen everybody heard about the big news It's going on right now Everybody heard it was what's now becoming an admit more major news remember I told you a long time ago that what we made catastrophes and opportunities is is it is a trader's dream and The big big news that's going on right now Is obviously you heard what's going on China. You got the corona virus that's going on now. I've been through this before As a trader and the question is like okay. Well, how's that help traders? Well, what's gonna happen? Well, you both remember the Ebola virus. Yes, Josh there. He goes that was another big thing I don't remember dealing with that a long time ago. That's right. Lake was like the stock out there Thanks for sharing that job.  I mean other than watching the movie guys have a watch the movie What's that call that movie? Was it a big virus movie we're trying to blank Dammit, it's gonna come to outbreak. Thank you very much. Clef Dean great movie right scary though Right when you really think about the movie outbreak the government was gonna literally blow up the whole city They couldn't stop this thing was killing people left and right unbelievable virus Listen, you know what if you read some of the history old old histories of you know, the black death and you know all that stuff the you know All these crazy viruses that were out back then, you know, listen, it's it could be serious So anyway, my point is this Unfortunately, it's a terrible thing and then we don't wish that on anybody But you know that there's gonna be pharmaceutical stocks are gonna jump on the bandwagon I think they said this one right here Was M&R a was actually one of the stocks that might consider I was listening on scene on Fox business You know talking a little bit about it. I don't know but the plague Yeah, I mean listen we can talk about that all day But listen, I would really really focus on we you know on these pharmaceutical stocks Listen, we've been really great with pharmaceutical stocks or so what happened the last couple of days a lot of them are very inexpensive We talked about FDA finally getting their hand, you know getting Taking the handcuffs off and not let these people spend, you know years and years and years and really getting these drugs on the market a lot quicker You know and stop with all this You know All this red tape that they have to go through But I think there's gonna really a very big hit so be very very careful And listen what's going on and look for these stocks because let me tell you You know what? If any company brings up any news on any idea and think they have it trust me these things will go just like lake just like how josh meant Just talked about it.  Let me just bring that up Bring up lake Lake I lake was one of them. Um Lake right here back in 15. That's where it was right there. That's right It ran from six dollars all the way up to 28.  You could see that All right, so let me go back and let's start doing through the watch list But before we do that, I just want to cover what happened yesterday Uh yesterday I had a really good day trading and then I started, you know You notice when you do your journals You really really hit it big if you're on the right one early And then all of a sudden things started dying out little by little by little So the big one uh that we did pretty well was on was on the tr i l That one did really really well. Um in the morning tr i l And let me fix my chart. He's a little bit better So yeah, so that thing just literally was very inexpensive stock had a nice little push, you know Really popped out of the gate. You could trade several thousand shares of it We've done really well with that stock. You can see how the thing has been had a really nice tear going into December all the way up to uh 350 which is now so stock's been a fun stock trail's been treating us pretty well neo You know, obviously that thing just let me tell you I I lost money on neo and good thing. I got out of it I would have got crushed on that stock right there. Uh, you could see neo had a really nice pop Right out of the gate and then she backed off Uh, right around here. I I got out I bought it at 5 60 and then it went to like 68 and then I got out at like 52 The thing I got out of 52 because look where it ended up and went all the way down to 47 Remember the big thing that we teach you at cyber trade university. It's not about making money. Okay It's about knowing how to stop losing it if everybody's making money nobody would know what to need need anybody, right?  Can't go broke taking a profit. Listen, this stock started, you know, right In november at $20 at 50. I mean, listen, it could go back. Of course it could you know But you know what prop people always are going to take profits space The final frontier SP SPCE this thing has just been on a tear I mean this thing has been crazy, but the bad thing about this it's not really a day trade It's more of a swing trade. So be very very careful trading this stock Actually, I saw um, and I'm putting it back on my watch list again this morning. I remember it's funny I was watching about this company uh On it I saw the ceo doing an interview on it and he was just praising how great they're doing And how the beaten earnings all this good stuff I gotta gotta read the history on the company what they do. It's pretty unique, but I guess, you know Once again, it definitely affects us Reflects the stock Okay, let's talk about what's moving this morning a couple of interesting stocks moving the pre market I want to start off with the c odx Stocks got great iceberg orders out there on the level three. We got a nice little push up 158 But um, she started back off a little bit. So I think it's a little profit taking going on right now We some of you remember the stock we traded it back here And this thing had a big big tear short squeeze 120 all of it at $2 right back down So be careful of the knowing uh, if we were getting tied up in a short squeeze remember take your profit and run Another one that gapped up pretty good going in after hours is this one slim slm of 22 percent You're gonna have to go back in history uh Probably more than a year To find the resistance listen right here. You see is a 12 000 share seller out there at 11 18 That's one one of the reasons having a tough time breaking it.  We traded the stock before we've done pretty well with it So I'll go check your journals and see how you did with it in the past GNpx also founders in the pre market Um stocks can't crushed crushed talking about a short squeeze. You all know this one pretty well We saw a stock open 40 cents to two dollars where she's going now guys You know what and look at that she looks like she's still going lower So it's so funny. It just kicked in too just recently. That was still flag tank You know That's why you can't think you can't you can't hold these positions You never know what could happen The one I like the best this morning is the apt She's She's she gapped up.   She's not a very nice little stock a little little risky um She kind of like did most of her Movement in the after hours and in the morning But um, she is testing resistance levels from yesterday and uh, actually like she's breaking it too Got great orders out there, but not a lot. We're not getting that nice little, you know 10,000 fights the 100,000 orders out there. You got 3,000 right here. Maybe you know, it's not terrible But uh, I think that one looks pretty decent and then uh, that's about it We got the spacey. So we don't really have a lot going on this morning, you know, not a lot I mean the markets down 100 points We've been trending down a little bit here, you know, and uh I guess it's the same thing that happened I mean, you see the center trial is actually start doing the impeachment people like listening a little carefully what what to expect um So there's not really that much out there other than the news regarding about this uh, bad virus that's in china So I think that's what we only need to focus on keep it keep the tv station on keep the ears on guys You see something you say something so if there's a stock out there We're going to jump on and capitalize on it and trust me. Listen. I'm just wanting you right now If you don't someone else is going to do it and you're going to kick yourself in the butt that you didn't do it I've seen it before, you know, it's happened all the time and it's going to happen again. All right, so Um, that's going to be really the kind of the play right now And I told you this what can make the market go up with market go down Is catastrophes and it looks like, you know, you got you got a little bit wrong right here I'm not serious it is sounds very pretty damn serious to me for what they're saying But they don't want to cause any stereo going on around here around the world But um, but keep an eye on those pharmaceutical stocks if there's anyone out there that might even have a Post any type of news that think they had to cure for it. Good luck everyone. Happy trading and uh Don't forget you got class today And we'll see you back in the afternoon if you have their meeting So, uh, just be uh, just be careful today right guys. Good luck. Happy trading

The United Nations Refugee Agency says thousands of villages in Burkina Faso urgently need water, sanitation, shelter and medical care, having fled their homes after Saturday's massacre by slummished militants. A UNHCR spokesman praised the generosity of people in other villages in welcoming and sharing what little they had with more than 3,300 who fled Sohan. The agency was working with the Burkina government to build shelters and help the displaced but more resources were needed. Up to 160 people were killed in the attack on Sohan. The UN says nearly 40 are seriously injured and in the hospital.
