Re: [Oe List ...] Boston Marathon

That's very impressive that he ran a marathon in 1954. There were very few marathoners at the time. There were probably less than 1000 runners, instead of 26,000. _____ From: oe-bounces(a)wedgeblade.net [mailto:oe-bounces@wedgeblade.net] On Behalf Of LAURELCG(a)aol.com Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2012 7:40 PM To: oe(a)wedgeblade.net Subject: Re: [Oe List ...] Boston Marathon Sincerest congratulations, Herman. Indeed, all is possible. Fred McGuire ran the marathon, I think in '54 for the U.S. Navy track team. Don't know his time or how many entrants there were. He medaled in the Western Hemisphere Marathon (Long Beach) that year. I think he weighed 140 lbs. Was 22 years old, a year before we met.

The temperature reached 89 degrees, 153 people were treated at area hospitals, and 8 were in critical condition at some stage though no one died. Here's a testimony to the conditions: "This was the toughest marathon I've ever run, and I've done 5 Ironmans, 3 Bostons and about 20 marathons," said Mark Williams, 45, of Richmond, Va. He said his time was 30 minutes slower than six months ago. "It was brutal." I was able to keep running and I also finished about 30 minutes slower than I had hoped. It was a real mind trip. I didn't really know what to do to sustain myself in the race. I had never run a marathon in those conditions before. All in all though, it was marvelous. One of those crazy things we do for fun!

a new mailing list could be very helpful. bill bailey -----Original Message----- From: Tim Wegner Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 4:39 PM To: dialogue(a)wedgeblade.net ; oe(a)wedgeblade.net Subject: [Oe List ...] Proposed tech(a)wedgeblade.net list I will try not to post many more (if any) messages to both lists! Thanks for your patience! Sometimes it is necessary, but everyone (including me) should strive to post to just one list unless the message truly applies to both, as this and the last few from me necessarily have. I would like to start a new mailing list called something like tech(a)wedgeblade.net (there may be a better name, I'm open) that would: 1. Discuss problems and solutions relating to the lists and the wiki 2. Propose new content and revisions to wiki.wedgeblade.net (e.g. the project of harvesting threads from the mailing lists and posting on the wiki). 3. Discuss new ideas for facilities that could be hosted at wedgeblade.net. As before, there are a whole slew of possibilities, but they are different than before since we have a new host. And the possibilties are not necessarily limited to what the host provides. I don't think most people will necessarily be interested in this topic, the technical infrastruture that glues us together, but I know some of you are. Everyone interested is welcome. Hmmm - maybe the list should be called "glue(a)wedgeblade.net" :-) Let me know OFF THE LIST with a private email if you are interested. Thanks, Tim _______________________________________________ OE mailing list OE(a)wedgeblade.net http://wedgeblade.net/mailman/listinfo/oe_wedgeblade.net

FW: Mowanjum stories

Please approve these news articles or tell me a way to send them. I tried the new way but it wouldn't go through. Lynda Cock _____ From: Julie & John Miesen [mailto:miesenjj@optusnet.com.au] Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 2:13 AM To: undisclosed-recipients(a)mail06.syd.optusnet.com.au Subject: Mowanjum stories Dear Order Ecumenical and ICA Australia colleagues, You will remember Mowanjum, the first community the Ecumenical Institute worked in at the end of the 1960s and early 1970. We loved many of the people there, and have recently learned that it is in deep trouble. The attached articles were written for the Canberra Times and Sydney Morning Herald newspapers, and they are for your information and prayers.

I think they're pretty much idenhtical, and cover the same material as in The Age today. I know The Age and The SMH are both Fairfax papers, while The Canberra Times is independent. I suspect Skelton circulated the article widely. I'll print these off, check with The Age newspapeer (I always get it on Thursdays for The Green Guide), then check The Australian today.

Re: [Oe List ...] FW: WashPost: Is Benedict becoming a papal enforcer?

Dear Herman, Thanks very much for posting these two articles. There are quiet rumblings here in Australia, as I hear from amongst my Catholic women friends and colleagues.. As Joe used to say " lo here, lo there..." Some sort of irreversible happening is forming, perhaps... Peace is yours, Isobel Bishop.

Lists are back
by Tim Wegner 22 Apr '12

22 Apr '12

The oe and dialogue lists are back! The official email addresses are: oe(a)lists.wedgeblade.net dialogue(a)lists.wedgeblade.net but apparently the old addresses (without the "lists") still work. I don't think the welcome messages with your new password went out. I will (temporarily) turn on the monthly password reminders, so you will find out your new password. I'll post more on this later. Also, be aware that the mailing list passwords are not very secure, so don't re-use the password you use for your Swiss bank account! We are using a new host, dreamhost.com. They are an employee-owned company with a decidedly geeky management style. Best of all, I was already using them for my fractal web site, and the additional cost to me for hosting the wedgeblade.net wiki and the two mailing lists is ... nada, zilch, zero. Therefore you don't owe me diddly squat for this service going forward (except maybe a little of sweat equity) :-) Having just taken down the (inactive) springboard list to save a little money, ironically enough, I now learn with the new host we can add mailing lists as we please! I will probably start one focussed on supporting our internet connectivity. I will let you know, and if there are other mailing list needs, speak up. I sure there will be a few glitches, let me know how it goes. I will be putting up the archives of past messages later today. Tim Wegner
