<Title>UMBC physics professor receives NASA&#8217;s Distinguished Public Service Medal</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">August 1, 2012
    
    Contact:  Nicole Ruediger, communications manager
    Phone: 410-455-5791
    Email: <a href="mailto:nruedige@umbc.edu">nruedige@umbc.edu</a>
    
    Contact: Raymond Hoff, professor of physics 
    Phone:  410-455-1943
    Email:  <a href="mailto:hoff@umbc.edu">hoff@umbc.edu</a>
    
    UMBC physics professor, Raymond Hoff will be awarded NASA’s Distinguished Public Service Medal in a ceremony tomorrow at NASA headquarters in Washington, D.C.
    
    The medal is NASA’s highest form of recognition awarded to any non-government individual whose distinguished service, ability, or vision has personally contributed to NASA’s advancement of the United States’ interests. Previous recipients have included Carl Sagan and Robert Heinlein.
    
    Hoff is receiving the medal “for distinguished service and leadership in Earth observations and their application for societal benefit.”
    
    Hoff, says NASA, is on the forefront of bringing NASA satellite data to bear on air quality applications. Even though the use of NASA satellite observations to advance scientific understanding is fundamental, the application of these observations for society’s benefit continues to be a difficult challenge. 
    
    For example, Hoff was involved in one of the first efforts to put satellite information into the hands of forecasters so that they could predict air quality. The Infusing satellite Data into Environmental air quality Applications (IDEA) website was established at Langley in 2003. Once it was established Hoff then expanded IDEA's satellite products and capabilities. He oversaw IDEA’s transition from a manual to an automatic operational framework at NOAA, and still serves as a primary technical contact. 
    
    The UMBC Smog Blog (<a href="http://alg.umbc.edu/usaq/">http://alg.umbc.edu/usaq/</a>, another resource established in 2004 by Hoff continues to thrive as well. The web site, which had over 50 million hits during its first 8 years, is a successful tool for putting satellite information into the hands of decision makers and the general public.
    
    Biography:
    
    Raymond Hoff is a Professor of Physics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He is the Science Advisor for the Joint Center for Earth Systems Technology. Dr. Hoff has 37 years of experience in atmospheric research. His research interests are in the optical properties of aerosols and gases in the atmosphere. He obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in physics at the University of California Berkeley in 1970 and a Ph.D. in physics from Simon Fraser University in 1975.</div>

<Title>Donald Norris, Public Policy, in the Baltimore Sun</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Gov. Martin O’Malley has called for a special legislative session on gambling next month in what the Baltimore Sun has dubbed “a high-stakes political bet that he can prevail in a struggle over one of the most contentious issues facing Maryland.” O’Malley would like to expand gambling in Maryland through a proposal that he says would add $100 million in revenue to next year’s state budget. A win could bolster his image as an effective leader both within the state and nationally. But what are his chances? Donald F.

<Title>Day #3: &#8220;Where Family Reunion Really Happens!&#8221;</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>Mark 10:28-31 (NIV)</p>
    <p>28 Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!”<br>
    29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”</p>
    <p>John 19:25-30 (NIV)</p>
    <p>25 Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” 27 and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.<br>
    28 Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” 29 A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. 30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.</p>
    <p>Reflection:</p>
    <p>Family reunions can be terribly fun and tremendously frustrating. But God’s way of ‘reunion’ among His family and children always happens at the cross.  This is why God’s family can and will work.  With this in mind, there isn’t a moment together that can’t be deeply impacted by the grace and glory of God.  </p>
    <p>Responding to the Transmission:</p>
    <p>Let’s be encouraged today as God’s church of the power and love we have as His people, as part of His family.  Let’s pray for an increase work of the Spirit in our church that we would live out our calling even more together, that our relationships, our marriages, our lives together would reflect God’s grace and glory to this generation.</p>
