Another day at UC Santa Cruz.


"The regents — making an official campus visit for only the second time in 40 years — were forced to cancel the remainder of their campus tour when roughly 150 students protesting a host of issues, from cuts in humanities programs to UC nuclear research, blocked the doors to a campus lecture hall aoround 4:30 p.m."

"The activists demanded the release of three protesters who had been detained inside by university police."

"In a scuffle at the hall's entrance, police pulled the three into the building and used pepper spray and batons to subdue the crowd outside. The three — two students and an alumna — were arrested; one will face three felony counts of battery against a police officer, according to campus spokeswoman Liz Irwin, while the others face misdemeanor charges of disrupting a public meeting. One officer was injured, though the extent of his injuries were unknown."


"With clusters of students blocking every exit to the new Humanities/Social Sciences lecture hall, administrators in the building used cell phones to talk to officials who were negotiating with student leaders outside to clear the way for the regents to leave."

"This isn't the best situation — people are essentially being held hostage inside," student leader Samantha Aranke told fellow students."

Don't trip, we'll be down there in two months. I've put in 5 different applications at the University. I want to meet these folks and put that passion to it's intended purpose: Jesus; and his church.

Pastor Ambushed by Hindu Mob - VOM sources/persecution.com
Pastor Bhadikar Barshi was on his way to conduct a regular service at his house in the Barshi area of Solapur district in Maharashtra state on July 5th, when two youths approached him. Asking him to join them in a prayer for a friend who had been suffering from a sickness over the past 15 years, the young men walked alongside the pastor for some time until a Hindu mob ambushed him. He was violently struck with wooden clubs all over his body and received a deep gash on his right eye. After hospital treatment, including stitches on his forehead, he was released and remains faithful to his ministry. Give thanks to God, asking Him to strengthen this faithful servant who is following his Master. Luke 9:23, 24

The preacher delivered a compelling message, but what made me send in my $1000 was this statement at the bottom of the screen:
"Send in your $1000.00 seed gift and recieve your free copy of The Secrets of the Richest Man who ever Walked the Earth."
Evidently for $1000 I can learn his secret.
