(proof)The story features Catherine, a young woman who rec.docxhoney725342
(proof)
The story features Catherine, a young woman who recently lost her father, Robert, a renowned mathematician at the University of Chicago who had been suffering for years with mental illness. Catherine had cared for him instead of concentrating on her own ambitions.
Now, “she’s asking the question of how much of her father has she inherited, both in terms of his genius and maybe his issues of demons,” said director Matt Foss, who joined the department as an assistant professor of theater in August. Proof is his first production at the university. “She’s kind of working out, ‘Do I get to be happy? What kind of life do I have now that I’m no longer taking care of my dad?’ because she’s put so much of her life on hold.”
Catherine’s older sister, Claire, who arrives for their father’s funeral, thinks her sister could have inherited her father’s illness as well as his intelligence and wants to make sure she has therapy. And a romance may be beginning between Catherine and Hal, a young former student of Robert’s, but can she rely on him?
When Catherine decides to share a notebook containing a mathematical proof, Claire and Hal assume it was formulated by her father, not Catherine; they don’t believe she could have written it.
A Christian Leader Audit
The Christian Leader Audit helps determine the overall strength of the leader as a Christian. Is the leader a strong Christian leader, above average Christian leader and so on? As Malphurs exclaims, as Christian leaders our “mandate is to lead Christianly regardless of the context.”[footnoteRef:1] This audits one’s commitment to Christ, godly character, reliance on God and ability to live by example. I scored a nine on the audit and according to my score I am a strong Christian leader. [1: Aubrey Malphurs, Being Leaders:The Nature of Authentic Christian Leadership, (Grand Rapids, Michigan, Baker Books:2003), 13.]
Practicing servant leadership was a given for me. It has always been a passion of mine to serve others in any way possible. I have always believed that you must lead by example. In student ministry this often means that I look for opportunities to serve students so that they can see in living color what being a servant looks like. Some examples would be sharing what I have with students. I find that any time I can share a meal with someone or share some money with someone in need that this is a great opportunity for me to lead by example. Often, I find myself not just asking others to clean up but I join them in cleaning up. I try to make sure that I never have the attitude that I am “too good” to do something.
As I further reflected on this audit I found that while most of the time I lead by the power of the Holy Spirit there are times when I launch out ahead of the Holy Spirit on my own. I often find myself praying that I would not get ahead of the Spirit but if I am honest I will admit that I get excited or at times frustrated and move out on my own. This was a good remin ...

Realistic Fiction is exactly what it
sounds like: books that seem like
they could be true (realistic) but are
not true (fiction).
3. •
Realistic books have plots, characters, and
settings that might be found in real life.
• Plot – what happens in a story
• Characters – who it happens to
• Setting – where and when it happens
There can be no magic or fantasy involved in the
plot, although there may be very unusual events
or characters.

The Watsons are not an ordinary family in Flint, MI. On a very cold winter morning, Byron manages to freeze his lips to the side-view mirror of the family car. Mrs. Watson is from Alabama and fears her children will freeze in the cold, so she bundles them in so many layers of sweaters and coats they can hardly move—but it’s great protection when you’re pelted with snowballs. No wonder people think the family is strange. But there’s one way they’re not strange at all. When gang influences that threaten to turn him from good kid to bad kid, the Watson’s decide to drive 1,000 miles to Birmingham to take him to Grandma Sands, who will be able to set Byron straight.

All I had wanted to do was purchase a box of macaroni & cheese, some white rice and two tomatoes. But then, I heard the store manager yelling, "Who let that dog in? Who let that dirty dog in?"
I couldn't see anything but rolling vegetables and Winn-Dixie employees waving their arms, until a big, ugly dog skidded to a stop right in front of me and smiled. What was a lonely 15 year old to do? I told the store manager he was my dog and that his name was Winn-Dixie. So I don't think very fast .. so what if the store's name is Winn-Dixie. Anyway, I yelled "Here, boy! Here, Winn-Dixie!" And what was a stray dog to do? He obediently came to me and smiled so hard that he sneezed. It was love at first sight.
Now, I, India Opal Baloni, of Naomi Florida need to convince my preacher Dad that we need a dog. After all, my Mom isn't around, and I need company. And we all know a dog can change your life, can't it? Read BECAUSE OF WINN-DIXIE, by Kate DiCamillo.

sightseeing detour in an old Cessna 185 floatplane goes dangerously awry, leaving two teen-aged boys and an elderly man to fend for themselves in the remote wilderness of Canada's Northwest Territories. This is the land where the "hammer" comes down, a term that refers to the cold and darkness of the brutal winter. This severe setting is the backdrop for a clash of cultures and generations, as three individuals compete for control over the group and their destinies. Will Hobbs first got the idea for writing Far North while standing on the cliffs of Virginia Falls, a waterfall twice the size of Niagara Falls in this remote region of Canada. He also read other people's first-hand accounts of surviving "extreme winter conditions, open water, and collapsing ice bridges." The author's knowledge and research is skillfully translated into this authentic and riveting survival story. For fans of this genre, it just doesn't get much better.
