Pittsburgh Union Progress He has already turned in a handful of big-time performances on both the gridiron and the hardwood during the course of his decorated multi-sport career at Upper St but Panthers senior Julian Dahlem never really had his signature moment — until now With reigning WPIAL Class 5A champion and No 1-ranked Peters Township coming to town for a high-stakes clash of unbeaten rivals on Friday night Dahlem delivered a dazzling trio of touchdowns and No Clair’s suffocating defense did the rest pitching a second-half shutout and forcing four turnovers to lift the Panthers (6-0 1-0) to a 21-7 win to open up Allegheny Six Conference Play 180-pound dynamo capable of taking over a game at several different positions Dahlem rushed for 185 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 22 carries including a highlight-reel 71-yard score to help ice the game in the fourth quarter He also returned an interception for a 25-yard TD to break a scoreless tie in the first half Clair’s defensive masterpiece against the defending champs “All credit to my coaches and O-line and all the people behind me,” Dahlem said “I’ve always wanted to beat this team Put this kid at or near the top of the list for best big-game performances of the year so far.Upper St. Clair senior Julian Dahlem rushed for 185 yards and two TDs on 22 carries, and he added a 25-yard pick-six to lead the Panthers

Coury who left Friday’s game with an injury and did not return Both Coury and Dahlem were already over 500 yards rushing going into Week 5 with Dahlem reaching the mark on only 36 carries while averaging 14.1 yards per attempt through the team’s first five games If Coury is to miss an extended period of time Clair’s backfield is in good hands with Dahlem as its workhorse “He represents our

in the first half pushing the Panthers around at the line of scrimmage with standout linebackers Mickey Vaccarello and Reston Lehman wreaking havoc in the backfield with nine first downs to only one for the Panthers — but the second half was a completely different story with all 286 of its yards coming on the ground Panthers quarterback Ethan Hellmann attempted only three passes on the evening “You have to make a choice,” Junko said I made the decision that we’re going to dance with who brought us and what got us here to this point in the season was our running game and our offensive line Things started slow as the defenses dominated a scoreless first quarter with senior linebacker Van Hellmann recovering a fumble on the Indians’ opening possession before both teams forced consecutive fourth-down stops The trend carried over into the second quarter when Dahlem intercepted DiLucia’s pass and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown to give the Panthers a 7-0 lead the first offensive points of the game came on the ensuing drive for Peters Township when DiLucia found Eli Prado wide open down the field for a 44-yard touchdown pass to tie the game at 7-7 late in the first half The

much trust in our line and our backs,” Dahlem said Clair will turn its attention toward another undefeated conference rival with a trip to take on No 5 South Fayette next week, followed by a mouth-watering matchup against yet another unbeaten Allegheny Six Conference foe at No And although the Panthers won’t have the comfort of their home stadium for those pivotal showdowns they can rest easy knowing Dahlem is on their side “He might be the best player in the entire WPIAL He’s at least one of them,” Hellmann said “You always know that if he has the ball Steve is a sports writer at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Julian Dahlem finds the path to the end zone clear after he eluded Canon-McMillan defenders Dahlem scored three times and picked up 174 yards rushing on 14 carries in Upper St Clair’s 41-6 win against the Big Macs Julian Dahlem performs much like the breakfast foods he enjoys he prefers Frosted Flakes and Lucky Charms he’s great on the gridiron and his deeds are deliciously different such that he has been USC’s lucky charm In leading the Panthers to an 8-2 record last fall Dahlem compiled more than 1,000 total yards of offense and racked up 10 touchdowns playing multiple positions from wide receiver to quarterback to slot back picked off three passes and broke up three pass attempts Dahlem again is a dominant force for the Panthers He ranks as one of the WPIAL rushing leaders with 404 yards on 26 carries and five scores He has also completed 12 of 23 aerials for three more touchdowns “Julian is just a special kid on the football field,” said USC skipper Mike Junko “He has excellent vision and he has improved his speed which has allowed him to run away from defenders “He plays the game so hard on every snap,” Junko continued “His competitive DNA makes him different.” played “a bunch of sports” at Weir High School in West Virginia played baseball at Clearfield High School and football at Carnegie Mellon University allowed Dahlem to play football when he was 5 A senior wide receiver at Case Western University finishing his career with 5,226 yards and 55 total touchdowns including 3,786 passing yards and 31 passing touchdowns and 1,440 rushing yards with 24 rushing touchdowns “Mom was the one who let me play and made me stick with it when things got tough conditioning and hitting other kids,” said the 18-year-old Dahlem his brother played a “more influential” role in his life the brothers played in some of the same leagues together “Because he was always older it wasn’t fair back then but it’s evening up now,” Dahlem said “Things were always competitive between me and him One hundred percent that made me work and try harder.” Dahlem acknowledged that his brother has taught him everything he knows He also added that basketball has made him a better football player Dahlem has been a two-year captain of the basketball team he helped lead the Panthers to a WPIAL championship in March “Basketball really helps me with football Seeing the lanes and open people on the field “Basketball is a lot of footwork so that helps with being a receiver and you are leading the team in general.” Junko agreed with Dahlem’s assessment “Julian has an innate ability to see the field and make the right cut,” he said USC has carved out a lofty spot in the Class 5A of the WPIAL 3 behind defending champion Peters Township and Pine-Richland The Indians and Black Hawks are in USC’s sights as the Panthers have dates with those conference adversaries on Sept But Dahlem takes little credit for the team’s success which he hopes continues long into the fall “My success is a credit to the O-line opening things up for me and the other players on the team We are all friends and we do everything together I have been around these guys my whole life and we push each other to be the best we can be.” he transitioned from quarterback to wide receiver but has filled in at the signal calling position when necessary this season When Ethan Hellmann suffered a concussion in the season-opener he rushed for 174 yards and scored three touchdowns In a follow-up win against Franklin Regional Dahlem rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown on four carries while Hellmann returned at the controls completing six aerials for 157 yards and two scoring strikes “Most likely I prefer to run the football because I am better at it It was definitely new to me but having been a quarterback reading coverages and understanding running routes I will play because my only goals are to win our conference and go from there,” Dahlem continued “I feel we have a good shot and if I just be myself and do my best He acknowledges that Dahlem’s team before me attitude is his biggest plus his physical assets put USC in the best position to achieve His focus is always on what is best for the team,” Junko said “As an offense we have to make sure that Julian gets his touches People might be surprised to know this about you: I used to play the piano but school and sports got to be too much Person with whom you would like to have dinner: Michael Jordan Lesson sports has taught you: No matter how hard the journey is you will always have people supporting you In 15 years

South Fayette quarterback Drew Welhorsky takes a snap against Upper St. Clair on Friday, Oct. 4, 2024, at South Fayette. Upper St. Clair rushed for 342 yards and senior Julian Dahlem scored twice as the second-ranked Panthers defeated No. 4 South Fayette, 17-7, in a battle of unbeaten teams in the Allegheny Six. Having a defense able to force three turnovers also gave them the luxury of being a little boring on offense. USC completed only one downfield pass, which was one more than last week. “For games in the future, we’re definitely going to have to complete more passes,” senior lineman Nate Stohl said. “But we’re running the ball and it’s working, so why change it?” Dahlem rushed for 174 yards on 20 carries, and sophomore John Banbury added 18 carries for 137 yards despite a broken finger injured early in the game. Dahlem scored on a 5-yard run just before halftime, and added a 38-yarder in the third quarter for a 14-0 lead. “Our kids have an identity,” USC coach Mike Junko said of playing physical, run-heavy football. “They feel they can do just that. We had like a 95-yard drive. That’s where they’re comfortable. It’s something that, coming out of the locker room, they know we’re going to do it (and) we know we’re going to do it.” The win keeps Upper St. Clair (7-0, 2-0) undefeated and tied with No. 3 Bethel Park (7-0, 2-0) atop the conference. Those two meet next week at Bethel Park. South Fayette (6-1, 1-1) was off to its best start since joining Class 5A in 2020. The Lions visit defending conference and WPIAL champion Peters Township (6-1, 1-1) next week. “There are no moral victories in football, but I feel confident I can go in there to the locker room and know that our guys are going to battle,” first-year South Fayette coach Marty Spieler said. “Every play, they’re going to hang with whoever they put out there. We have another one next week, and I feel confident that we’re going to compete in this conference.” South Fayette cut Upper St. Clair’s lead to 14-7 early in the fourth with a 37-yard pass from junior quarter Drew Welhorsky to sophomore Alex Deanes. The two connected on a fourth-and-8 play to break up the shutout. Welhorsky completed 11 of 18 passes for 180 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. He also rushed for a team-high 76 yards on 18 carries. South Fayette had a chance for a tying drive later in the fourth until Upper St. Clair’s Charley Bywalski intercepted a pass near midfield, dashing the Lions’ hopes with 4:39 left. USC linebacker Van Hellmann recovered a fumble late in the fourth and Carter Stein had an interception in the first half. Upper St. Clair junior Jacobo Echeverria Lozano made a 31-yard field goal with 1:28 left to seal the win. “Every week is going to be tight like this,” Junko said. “We’re playing in the best conference in 5A right now. You’ve got to buckle up and go get another one next week.” Upper St. Clair’s first touchdown drive covered 95 yards in 13 plays, setting a tone with 11 runs for a 7-0 halftime lead. The second scoring drive was quicker, covering 80 yards in five plays. It gave the Panthers a 14-0 edge late in the third quarter. The versatile Dahlem, listed as a quarterback and wide receiver on the team’s roster, took direct snaps behind center and ran with the ball. But Junko said that doesn’t mean Upper St. Clair has lost confidence in its passing game. “We need to be able to throw the football,” he said. “That’s something we’ll continue to work on. We threw it well earlier in the season. We’ve run into a two-game patch here where we haven’t been as efficient.” Penalties were another issue. Each team was flagged 10 times, which took a toll on the game’s tempo. Upper St. Clair had another would-be touchdown run erased by a first-quarter penalty. Dahlem was quick to share credit for the running game’s success with the teammates blocking for him and Banbury. “It’s the people up front,” Dahlem said. “Nate Stohl, Mason Geyer, Brock Gillespie, Bobby Fleckenstein, Reese Pirain, Michael Albert and Beck Shields. They work their butts off in practice and work so hard for this team. It’s all because of them.” Spieler also gave credit to the blocking of Hellmann, an H-back, who shook off an early injury to stay in the game. “We’re a physical football team,” Stohl said, “and it continues to work.” If Javascript is disabled browser, to place orders please visit the page where our photos are available to purchase Julian Dahlem grabbed the headlines in Upper St Clair’s 21-7 victory over Peters Township but the credit for the triumph in the Allegheny Six Conference opener says the senior multi-purpose back was well distributed Dahlem rolled up 185 yards on 22 carries for two touchdowns – a 16-yard scamper with 1:29 remaining in the third quarter and a 71-yard sprint on a third-and-32 play with 5:29 left in the contest Those dudes work their butt off every day in practice and they make me work harder Princeton recruits Nate Stohl and Michael Albert are the anchors Brock Gillespie and Mason Geyer see the majority of the action at the other positions in the trenches He is the offensive line coach and kudos were bestowed upon him he made some great adjustments,” said USC skipper Mike Junko Peters Township’s reputation is well earned The Indians averaged only six points a game and had two shutouts in their first five games They also are the defending WPIAL Class 5A champions and PIAA runners-up USC managed only 43 yards of offense and one score in the first half The touchdown came on a fluke play – a Pick-6 for 16 yards by Dahlem at the 6:44 mark in the second quarter Dahlem dubbed as “total luck” because it was thrown right at him He connected with Eli Prado for a 44-yard scoring strike and Anthony Maiello tied the contest with his extra point who led the WPIAL in passing with 1,264 yards did complete 13 of 24 passes for 161 yards The Panthers held the Peters Township ground game to 110 yards while rolling up 286 yards themselves Both Dahlem and Junko credited USC’s defensive coordinators Mike Milligan and Andy Assad “Our defensive coordinators worked hard this week trying to shut down a great quarterback and a great system,” Junko said “To hold them to seven points in the first half and for the whole game our defense was phenomenal and our secondary bent but did not break.” we have not done well as DBs in the past,” Dahlem admitted “We worked hard though and it all came down to it in the end Our defensive coordinators are the greatest people on earth Van Hellmann and Anthony Rozzo had interceptions Reston Lehman and PJ Luke excelled on defense for the Indians Lehman had nine solo stops while Rost finished with nine total tackles Both had quarterback sacks as did Lucas Shanafelt DiLucia finished with eight tackles and Luke contributed seven The Indians drove into USC territory when Hellmann intercepted a reverse halfback pass at the 25-yard line After a critical 27-yard rush by John Banbury who finished with 62 yards on eight carries eventually scoring the go-ahed touchdown on a 16-yard rush up the middle He later added the 71-yarder to salt away the victory for the Panthers “I shook one person but it always goes to my O-linemen,” Dahlem said “The combination of our O-line and Julian Dahlem is what carried us in the second half,” Junko added That was two really good football teams going at it out there.” USC improved to 6-0 overall but the Panthers are tied for first place in the conference with upcoming opponents but there are so many tough games ahead of us” said Dahlem “The hard part is the conference has so many good teams The Forschungscampus Dahlem is a network that creates presents and imparts new knowledge about material and immaterial cultures by combining different competencies Transparency and participation are its main focus: Research processes are visualised allowing interest groups to get actively involved Differing forms of knowledge are treated equally and traditional hierarchies deliberately dissolved The “DenkRaum” project is an excellent example of this form of collaboration The space offers a platform for presentations and discussions about diverse subjects and their co-creative development interactive and multiperspectival way to encourage audience participation The DenkRaum makes its debut by exploring time: “Zeit & Zeitlichkeit” (19 September 2024 ‒ 27 February 2025) composed of specialists from diverse Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz (SPK) institutions The team conducted workshops and similar activities with different interest groups that provided the impetus for designing the thematic displays The outcome is a physical space featuring five islands focused on specific topics which are expanded throughout the project with fresh content and perspectives there is an interactive section where workshops and events encourage visitors to participate in further developing the thematic displays The “Zeit & Zeitlichkeit” DenkRaum is open Thursdays from noon to 8 pm and Sundays from 11 am to 6 pm Each Wednesday, the PUP high school sports staff will preview the game of the week.

However, that winning streak was in danger with less than a minute left. Hellmann’s throw on third-and-15 was closely defended in the end zone, yet Bywalski came down with the ball. “We got off to a slow start with a couple of dropped passes,” Bywalski said. “But we made up for it and made the big play when it counted.” The win has Upper St. Clair (8-0, 3-0) alone atop the conference standings with two games left. Before handing Bethel Park (7-1, 2-1) its first loss, the Panthers also had spoiled the undefeated records of Peters Township and South Fayette. “This is by far the toughest schedule I’ve ever had to take a football team through,” Upper St. Clair coach Mike Junko said. “We just played three really good football teams.” Bethel Park led 10-7 with 4:09 left after a 35-yard field goal by Jackson Friday. The lead was the Black Hawks’ first of the game, but it didn’t last. Upper St. Clair drove 64 yards in eight plays for the winning touchdown. Julian Dahlem and John Banbury combined for 32 rushing yards, but it was a couple of receptions that did the most damage. H-back Van Hellmann caught an 18-yarder early in the drive, leading later to Bywalski’s winning catch. “We can be critical on ourselves and be disappointed about certain things, but the kid made a really good play,” Bethel Park coach Phil Peckich said. “We had pretty tight coverage there. We just didn’t finish when we needed to.” Upper St. Clair had completed only one downfield pass in the two previous games combined, so it seemed unlikely that they would win this one with a touchdown pass. But they didn’t let those thoughts linger. “Coaches have so much trust in us, so much belief in us,” said Bywalski, who had two catches for 49 yards Friday, upping his season total to six receptions. The 6-foot-2, 180-pounder has college offers from Bucknell and Richmond. “We put in so much work in the offseason,” he said. “So much work during practice. We ran that (winning play) maybe 1,000 times before we actually had to do it in a game.” Upper St. Clair’s winning play was a pass, but the Panthers again leaned on their running game and a strong defense. They rushed 36 times for 223 yards, with Dahlem and Banbury topping 100 each. Banbury led with 103 yards on 19 carries. Dahlem had 101 yards on 13 carries and capped USC’s opening possession with a 1-yard touchdown run. Dahlem scored on fourth-and-goal. The longest gain on the 81-yard drive was a 51-yard run by Dahlem that crossed midfield. Bethel Park scored a tying touchdown with 3:10 left in the third quarter. JaVaughn Moore scored on a 6-yard run, capping a 15-play, 82-yard drive. Moore rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on 28 carries. The touchdown drive nearly stalled with a fourth-down incompletion at USC’s 26-yard line, but a roughing the passer penalty gave them new life. Bethel Park scored three plays later for a 7-7 tie. “I thought we played a bad first half, and credit to them. They did some good things,” Peckich said. “We did not play well in any of the three phases. Against a quality team, you’ve got to come out and execute early.” Bethel Park entered averaging 51 points per game. Its best first-half scoring chance was a second-quarter drive that stalled at USC’s 7 on a fourth down incompletion. Black Hawks wide receiver Ryan Petras made his return from shoulder surgery and caught five passes for 85 yards. The score remained tied until the field goal by Friday in the fourth quarter gave Bethel Park a 10-7 lead. The kick was the team’s first field goal attempt of the season. Upper St. Clair’s passing game hadn’t contributed much to the team’s recent success, and Junko was concerned his quarterback and receivers might grow discouraged. He met with them individually, saying to keep their heads up. “We brought Charlie into the office and had that conversation with him this week,” Junko said. “We said, ‘Hey, we believe in you. We’re going to need you. Keep blocking and when the time comes make a play.’ “Boy, oh, boy.

Atomik Aztex (2005) is perhaps the wildest example of contemporary American novels concerned with the relationships among race Nealon has recently termed the “post-postmodern.” Part fantasy part

“post-postmodern.” in addition to this range of formal matters Atomik Aztexis concerned with two other topics: With eighty-two characters populating the story itself a plotted compendium of at least two radically separate yet intertwined universes of action in a continually shifting movement from past Atomik Aztex is a radical experiment in novelistic form Using the tools of quantitative formalism developed for literary use by the Stanford University Literary Lab I wish to show how the work of the computational humanities in conjunction with traditional hermeneutic methods of literary

will be closed due to maintenance work The exhibition areas will be open from Thursday The Humboldt Lab Dahlem was set up in 2012 and  ran until  2015 It was organized by the German Federal Cultural Foundation and the Stiftung Preussischer Kulturbesitz Conceived as a rehearsal room to boost creative synergies it was specifically geared towards preparing organizers for the exhibitions in the future Humboldt Forum The Lab did s this by proposing its own set of specific questions and coming up with innovative solutions and scholars to work closely together as they gained valuable experience by completing a series of concentrated short projects with playful yet practical applications The experience they gained was then shared with other members of their profession The results were presented from March 2013 till October 2015 in Dahlem The Lab  comprised around 30 projects in which visitors could participate in seven "Probebühnen" at the Dahlem Museums They aimed to highlight the material challenges that face a modern-day exhibition that spans the ethnographic and the artistic backstage tours and a science slam: over the next few years the Forschungscampus Dahlem will take

into the engine room: How does research work within a cultural institution Who are the people behind the research outcomes this location will also provide a home for research that transcends disciplinary divides research that values all forms of knowledge and sees dialogue with the public as an opportunity All of this will be organised around the four keywords of cultures The programme of the activity perfectly reflects this diversity What is the Forschungscampus Dahlem? small family homes have been destroyed to make way for larger grander houses with open concepts and quartz-countered islands with their dormered windows peeking onto the street The process is routine: A large excavator rolls off a flatbed first thing in the morning Once I watched the demolition of a home nearby and witnessed the claw carefully tear away the entire facade first awaiting the homeowners’ return that evening those home components were also in the dumpster as if no one had ever cooked at that stove while children did homework at the table nearby a house three times larger emerged in its place often with five bedrooms and five bathrooms for a family with two children Mansionization was a constant talking point in town Just before we were grounded by the pandemic my daughter Joanna and I traveled to Dahlem the district in western Berlin where my mother was born I was anxious to visit the sweet cottage where she had lived as a young girl the gardens of dahlias and helenium and daisies — life before my mother and her family were forced from their homeland by the Nazis But the cottage, like my family, had a will to survive. Although my grandparents were forced to leave Germany with almost nothing, an English woman and her German husband, unsympathetic to Hitler, bought the Dahlem home, promising to deposit a fair sum of money in a bank in England. The woman, Christabel Bielenberg, wrote about this agreement in her book 1934-1945: An Englishwoman in Nazi Germany." they found the money in a designated bank account and the Bielenbergs later left the deed to the property in their name my grandparents and their daughters were living in America They never returned to their former home in Germany Other family members have visited Dahlem over the years another couple lived in the home for several decades and warmly greeted my sister and later my nieces once they heard the story of our family connection was finally going to experience this part of my ancestral history My daughter and I arrived by train in Dahlem and knew it was only a short walk to #30 Falkenried I felt that I’d been there countless times before I was on the street with impatient anticipation Recent Google Street photos depicted my mother’s former home hidden behind overgrown trees so Joanna and I stopped looking for the cottage and started looking for orchards reaching the sky The gardens and welcoming cottage with its thatched peaks were gone It was easy to see why we had missed our #30 Gun-metal-toned numerals blended with a locked metal gate protecting a sterile modern house with a flat roof here the new owners had built a house more to their liking to make this connection with my mother’s past and our ancestry saved by the Bielenbergs and another couple who had loved it just as my grandparents had I’ve thought so often about the meaning of home which is much more than a physical structure of brick or wood lost that security when they were forced from their home my former husband and I sold the family home where we had raised our children The new owners explicitly stated their desire to tear it down and build something larger and grander It’s true that the house needed new kitchen cabinets But it was the home in which my children lost their first teeth the home where we had celebrated birthdays and graduations My daughter’s bedroom door still had pencil markings commemorating her yearly growth I can hear my grown son’s high school rock band practicing in the basement and the owners are entitled to build one more to their liking I’m comforted knowing that my grandparents took memories of #30 Falkenried with them to America Follow Cognoscenti on Facebook and Twitter. Diane Forman Cognoscenti contributorDiane Forman is a widely published essayist who lives The Dutch Henri Dahlem (50) from Aalten is a fighter Jehovah’s Witnesses’ “discriminatory exclusion policy” must come to an end and he is trying to achieve this in all possible ways and Henri Dahlem is summoned to the Jehovah’s Witnesses in Arnhem he was promoting the interests of Kurds in the Netherlands Henry Dahlem grew up in a foster family that is part of the community of Jehovah’s Witnesses he suffers physical and psychological abuse he told his story to the commission of Violence Youth Services By order of the Dutch House of Representatives the commission investigates non-sexual violence in youth institutions and foster families Dahlem blames the Child Protection Board for not investigating his foster parents thoroughly After the commission’s report has been presented Dahlem receives apologies from the Child Protection Board and the Inspection of Healthcare and Youth Former Minister of Legal Protection Sander Dekker asks Dahlem to set up an interest group for people who have been victims of psychological physical or sexual abuse within a dependency relationship Dahlem is a Christian and visits a congregation of the Vergadering van Gelovigen (the so-called Brethern) “Only God’s grace prevented me from losing my faith.” He thinks he sees one elder in the kingdom hall A judicial committee is a group of three or more elders that is formed during internal judicial procedures at Jehovah’s Witnesses and judges whether someone is sufficiently repentant of an offence or not The elders confront him with his political activities and say “If you do not repent of this sin and stop Dahlem is excluded from the community because he is politically active and votes Other members were not allowed to contact me.” Dahlem ran into a group of Jehovah’s Witnesses The group was not allowed by the elder to greet Dahlem because he was an apostate who was a Jehovah’s Witness –three years after his exclusion– Dahlem “was completely ignored The expulsion of a member for a breach of the rules is not an incident but official policy within the Jehovah’s Witnesses A witness who steps down or is expelled from the organisation is Family and friends are not allowed to make contact anymore this means that such a person loses his or her social contacts one’s entire life takes place within the community An exclusion means someone’s social death sentence.” as the religious community is often called “That chapter says that believers should not mix themselves with fornicators slanderers or robbers and that they should remove the wicked from out of their midst Some families take this so literal that they sleep eat and live separately from their apostate family members That can lead to mental and emotional problems by former members.” During a protest against the leaders of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in the city of Emmen in 2018 Both of them are convinced that they need to do something against the exclusion policy of the organisation The Belgian Court convicted Jehovah’s Witnesses for inciting discrimination The organisation has to pay a fine of 96,000 euros for “shunning and socially isolating members who left the community.” The Belgian court will look at the appeal of the Jehovah’s Witnesses on 22 March The Witnesses disagreed with the ruling of the criminal court in Gent the Jehovah’s Witnesses were sentenced to a fine of 96,000 euros for inciting discrimination and hatred or violence against people who left the community It decided that former members get the opportunity to write their defence Dahlem: “Even if they lose the procedure in Belgium Poland and the Czech Republic that want to press charges against the Jehovah Witnesses for their policy of ex-communication “The resistance spreads like an oil stain.” The initiator in the Belgian case is Patrick Haeck a high ranked Jehovah’s Witness who left the community after 35 years He was part of a judicial committee that shunned members who left for years; until he found that shunning went a step too far The Interfederaal Gelijkekansencentrum (Interfederal Equal Opportunities Centre) Unia and 15 victims joined the lawsuit The ruling comes as a shock for the former Dutch Jehovah’s Witnesses “This case did not take place in the United States of America In our private Facebook group of former members the question arose immediately: When are we going to take action?” the Dutch committee Against JW’s Shunning becomes a reality The committee wants to collectively report the Jehovah’s Witnesses for inciting discrimination and damaging honour and good name through a civil procedure The committee hires a lawyers’ company that is willing to investigate the judicial possibilities for the former members about 20 former Jehovah’s Witnesses are supporting the initiative The top priority of the committee is collecting money for prior research Dahlem expects to have a sufficient amount this month to start the procedure The former members also want to organise activities such as symposia in the future “We want to educate people about the policies of the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the effect they have on children The committee has started a petition in which they call the Dutch House of Representatives to come into action against the shunning policy of the Jehovah’s Witnesses immediately The group of former members wants the “discriminating policy” of the organisation to be punishable by law even if “the law needs to be changed.” Dahlem: “There is freedom of religion in the Netherlands Dahlem wants to present it to the House of Representatives At least 10 per cent of the signers are still part of the Jehovah’s Witnesses community “They disagree with the policy but do not dare to say that out loud because they fear shunning Socialist MP Van Nispen asked minister Dekker (Legal Protection) whether he saw “enough possibilities to fight shunning practices.” The minister writes at the beginning of December 2021 that shunning is not punishable by law And that he did not receive “any signals that making the phenomenon punishable has any added value.” Dahlem decides to report the matter to the police Together with former Jehovah’s Witness Jim Winter Winter presses charges against the president of the judicial committee of the local municipality Tilburg-Reeshof Dahlem wants to sue the president of the judicial committee of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in Arnhem-Boulevard-Heuvelink a couple that was shunned at the end of last year pressed charges against the president of the Jehovah’s Witnesses “It is a strong case because there is a recording of the announcement of their shunning available” Fokke Oldenhuis expects that a criminal procedure against Jehovah’s Witnesses because of their policy of shunning will be a complex case in the Netherlands Oldenhuis is a former professor of religion and law at the University of Groningen “A denomination can exert discipline over and break contact with a member who breaks the rules the denomination goes too far if disciplining aims to declare a person socially dead I encourage the criminal procedure against the Jehovah’s Witnesses.” he expects more from a civil procedure (between two civilians) Former members have access to footage of high-ranking Jehovah’s Witnesses calling thousands of followers to avoid apostates Jehovah’s Witnesses will have to change their policy Could conservative Reformed churches also be charged for exerting discipline “The Jehovah’s Witnesses explicitly check whether no one –also immediate family members– keeps in touch with the former member that is not the case for any church denomination I am often touched by how fathers and even more mothers continue to love their child and show that love despite their grief over their child’s choice.” “We intend to get several former members to press charges and hope that these reports are linked to each other so that the prosecutor can take up the case.” the police called Winters with the notice: this case is too old because this social condemnation goes on and on I am still ignored completely by Jehovah’s Witnesses.” The police are now investigating whether the complaint will be declared admissible after all Dahlem hopes that the Jehovah’s Witnesses themselves come to their senses and stop shunning people Jehovah’s Witnesses do not automatically exclude anyone who breaks the Biblical moral norms spokesman of the Jehovah’s Witnesses Nederland reacts in a written statement upon request “But if a baptised member makes it a habit to break the norms and is not prepared to change his habits All Jehovah’s Witnesses agree to live according to these norms when they each witness then acts “according to his or her religious conscience in applying biblical counsel to limit or terminate dealings with an excluded person.” Den Hertog stresses that excommunicated people can still attend the organisation’s religious gatherings and receive spiritual care from the community’s elders Although the religious relationship between the shunned and his family changes and love and daily life within the family do not change the normal feelings and dealings of the family continue to exist.” A 2015 article in “De Wachttoren” (The Watchtower) said of exclusion that “everyone in the congregation can show principles-based love by avoiding contact and conversation with the excluded person (1 Cor they support the strict teaching Jehovah has given him through the elders.” There are more than 29,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses in the Netherlands This article was translated by CNE.news and published in Dutch daily Reformatorisch Dagblad on February 3rd, 2022. Is it illegal to give an unconscious patient a blood transfusion that he probably does not want for religious reasons? The Danish Supreme Court does not think it is. The front yard of the northwest Gainesville home is trimmed and a healthy green. Inside, smiling photos - one a blown-up shot of Lt. Corey Dahlem and his daughter, Katie - greet you from a hallway table where three dogs compete for your affection. It's a peaceful picture - one that's quite contrary to reality for the Dahlem family during the past 12 months. On April 3, 2007, Corey Dahlem, a Gainesville Police lieutenant and devoted husband and father of two, was hit by a drunken driver on W. University Avenue in the aftermath of Florida's second consecutive NCAA basketball championship. A day later, his wife, Sally, had lost the man she met more than 20 years ago and found herself a single parent, coping with a future she could not have fathomed. "It's been a tough, tough year, as you can imagine," Sally Dahlem said Thursday as the anniversary of her husband's death loomed. "From just losing Corey, and the financial issues, and trying to decide what our new traditions are going to be and (whether) to continue old traditions." The 45-year-old describes her feelings a year later as sad and unsure. "I'm doing what I need to do, you know, for the kids," she said. "It's something that you'll never put behind you. Never." When Sally talks about her children, there are smiles. Glancing over at her daughter, who wears a shirt printed with her father's badge number, she talks proudly of Katie, 19, and Brandon, 22. She's grateful for the financial help from so many who contributed to a fund that has allowed them to remain in college after their father's death. "Both the kids stayed in school and didn't miss any school time," she said. Sally Dahlem's relationship with the kids has changed, she conceded. "I tend to be a little more clingy and worry," she said, describing her interaction with Katie and Brandon, both of whom are considering becoming firefighters. The thought of her children in a perilous profession like their dad's adds "a little more worry," her mother said. "When you have that knock on the door, you know, you don't want to ever go through that again. I worry that something is going to happen. They've never done anything to warrant being checked on all the time. It's just more me." Sally Dahlem's life, she'll tell you, has been anything but quiet during the past year. She has a full-time job in marketing and admissions at an assisted-living facility. "It kind of forces you to smile and do events and meet the people, get out in the public," she said. There have been family vacations. Friends invite her out to the mall or to dinner. Family demands remain, from looking after the kids and their home, to keeping up with her own and her husband's relatives. Corey Dahlem's father, Ted, lost two more of his four children last year. "It has just been a nightmare," Sally said. There is another job for Sally Dahlem: the work of both remembering her husband and learning to live without him. A framed poster hangs in the living room with Corey's picture looking out over Sally and Katie. Memories of Corey fill a room the family called the den, where he used to work on his computer, finish police paperwork or pay bills. After her father's death, Katie painted the room in stripes that symbolize the colors of a law enforcement memorial. The family can go there and be surrounded by Corey. Certificates have been framed, a quilt has been pieced together using T-shirts. Corey's badge, gun and handcuffs are there, along with a street sign from NW 17th Street, a section of which is now named in Corey's honor. He was struck where 17th Street intersects with W. University Avenue. The couple's wedding candle and his wedding ring also have places in the room. The Dahlems have regularly attended memorials and ceremonies honoring Corey Dahlem and routinely answer well-meaning questions from people who knew the well-liked lieutenant, a veteran of the police department that he joined in 1985, his wife said. Sally Dahlem spares little time for the young man whose pickup struck her husband, now serving a 10-year prison sentence. The same age as Brandon Dahlem, Austin Wright, 22, is housed at Walton Correctional Institution in the Florida Panhandle. The medium-security facility is hundreds of miles away from Wright's family in Venice. A University of North Florida student at the time, Wright had come to Gainesville last year for the basketball championship game. Wright's blood alcohol level the night he hit Dahlem was 0.271. State law says a reading of 0.08 is driving under the influence. Wright has said that when he struck Dahlem, he thought he had hit a curb. Wright entered a guilty plea in the case and apologized during his sentencing on Dec. 12, 2007. "It was selfish. I never should have done it. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about the Dahlems," he said. He has written letters to Sally Dahlem, although some of them he says he has not sent. The Dahlems say he also tried to contact Katie through a mutual acquaintance. He has hopes for the Dahlems' forgiveness. "It just feels like a piece of me is missing until I know they've forgiven me for it,'' Wright said. Sally and her family don't offer forgiveness. "We're not going to add to Austin's convenience and his family's convenience saying everything is OK," Sally said. "We have no desire to have any contact with him." The Dahlem family had asked for a 28-year prison sentence for Wright. A maximum of 30 years could have been imposed by Circuit Judge Peter K. Sieg. Required to serve 85 percent of his sentence, Wright would have been 45 - the same age as Corey Dahlem when he died - before he was eligible to be released had he received the sentence the Dahlems sought. Wright's family had a memorial erected in Sarasota County for Corey Dahlem. Sally Dahlem was outraged when she learned about it prior to Wright's sentencing. She believes the family was only trying to curry favor with the sentencing judge. "They knew that we didn't want this and did it anyhow," Sally said. While he was attending Santa Fe Community College, Wright had been charged twice for alcohol possession by a person under 21. He was arrested a year later for possession of alcohol and marijuana. Sally Dahlem said Wright believed he was "above the law." "I think the thing that kind of bothers our family and friends is that he had been in trouble before," Sally Dahlem said. "It was just somebody who never learned a lesson." To get a better sense of what Wright will be dealing with during his prison term, Sally visited a prison similar to the dormitory-style facility where Wright is incarcerated. "It looks like a big army barracks room. To me, I wish he would have been actually in a cell. It's not a nice place and you hope in the eight years that he's there that he learns and he doesn't do it again." Wright is sorry for what happened and has taken blame, said his Gainesville attorney, Larry Turner. "Austin still accepts responsibility for his actions and keeps the Dahlem family in his prayers," Turner said. Gainesville Police Lt. Bart Knowles, a friend of the Dahlems, said police also question what happened at Wright's sentencing. "I don't think we at GPD look at the (Wright) family and say, 'Those are horrible people,' or anything like that. I was sitting there as a parent thinking, 'God, I would not want to be in their shoes.' " But, Knowles said, "I don't know that I would get up and beg for my son's mercy after they tragically killed somebody. We're accountable for our actions." Like Sally Dahlem, Knowles said little things still remind him of the fallen officer. "There's not a week that goes by that I don't think, 'I can't believe he's not here,' " Knowles said. These days, when something good happens involving her children, Sally Dahlem says her immediate thought still is that she can't wait to tell Corey. "For just those two seconds, you almost forget he's gone. Your first reaction is, you know, you want to tell him." Her routine includes visits to her husband's gravesite at Forest Meadows Cemetery, where she says she talks to him. "I like to sit on the bench. I don't talk out loud, just in my mind," she said. The couple had discussed retirement. Corey planned to work at GPD for 30 years. "Then we always joked, because he said that he would have the retirement account, so I would be the one who would have to keep working," Sally recollects. There were plans to buy a home in the North Carolina mountains. Her goals now are more short-term while she waits to see where her children will end up. Brandon is a senior at the University of South Florida, while Katie lives in a Gainesville apartment and is graduating from SFCC. On Friday, the Gainesville Police Department will honor Corey Dahlem with a dedication of the agency's Data Trac Room used to track crime trends and analyze data. Corey was instrumental in developing it. In May, the Dahlems are going to the national memorial for fallen officers in Washington, D.C. Sally hopes that ceremony will bring some closure. By then, the family will have done one of just about everything without her husband. "It's kind of hard to say, 'OK, well, I'm ready to go on,' " she said. "I think Corey would not have wanted us, you know, to be angry and feel sorry for ourselves. Anna Scott of the Sarasota Herald-Tribune contributed to this report.

Upper St. Clair quarterback Ethan Dahlem works out during practice on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Upper St. Clair. Upper St. Clair’s David Pantelis works out during practice on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Upper St. Clair. Upper St. Clair’s Jaden Keating carries the bal during practice on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Upper St. Clair. Upper St. Clair’s Luke Banbury works out during practice on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Upper St. Clair. Upper St. Clair head coach Mike Junko watches practice on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, in Upper St. Clair. The pair combined for 77 receptions and more than 1,100 receiving yards. “It’s almost intuitive,” Junko said. “They are very much in tune. They just know. They’re developing that rhythm where Ethan knows exactly where David is going to be and when he’s going to get there.” Dahlem finished last season with 2,219 passing yards and 17 touchdowns, and Pantelis had 1,154 yards and nine touchdowns. Their chemistry gives the Panthers confidence they can improve on last year’s 7-5 record and WPIAL Class 5A quarterfinals appearance. “David takes an ordinary play and turns that into a big play just on ability,” Junko said. “He is a talented kid who has a very bright future.” But, to make the offense even more dangerous, Dahlem has worked in the offseason to build that connection with other receivers, including junior Mateo Cepullio. The team learned a lesson late last season, when defenses turned their focus on Pantelis. USC won five of its first six regular-season games, led by Pantelis and Dahlem. Pantelis had 928 receiving yards in those first six weeks and only 226 in the final six. Seven of his eight touchdowns also came in the season’s first half. “We saw some coverages that were unique in their design and certainly geared toward taking him away,” Junko said. “We’ve got to make defenses defend the whole field. We probably didn’t do good job of that late in the season. We hope to be more balanced and find ways to get him free.” Cepullio, now a junior, was the team’s second-leading receiver with 374 yards on 17 catches. Junko wants to incorporate more receivers but also run the football more consistently. Dahlem led the team with 952 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns, but running backs Jaden Keating and Ethan Hiester may see added carries. The two combined for 730 yards on 117 carries last season. Offensive tackles Tim Pollock and Connor Schmitt are returning starters, and Luke Banbury is back as the team’s H-back. “We felt like we could do a better job running the football,” Junko said. “At times last year we had to rely on the big play. If we didn’t have the big play, we didn’t run the ball well enough.” But what Junko won’t do is limit the roles Dahlem and Pantelis have in the offense. A year ago, they were dynamic even though they were both new to the offense. “Ethan was just learning this new system and trying to get a handle on it,” Junko said. “And now it’s really his system. He knows it as good as any of the coaches.” Pantelis is stronger than he was last season, Junko said, and has focused on improving his route running and blocking. “He takes pride in both of those things, and he still has some of the best ball skills out there,” he said. “Balls that may be out of reach, he finds a way to go and get.” 2019 record: 7-5, 4-3 in Class 5A Allegheny Eight Conference • Dahlem had 560 total yards in a Week 3 victory over Woodland Hills last season. His impressive total included a school-record 485 passing yards. He also rushed for 75 yards and three touchdowns. • USC coach Mike Junko is the son of longtime Pitt football assistant Bob Junko. • The Panthers played more than their share of close games last season. They had three decided by four points or fewer. They went 2-1 in those games. • Upper St. Clair got an early look at the conference’s newest team. The Panthers played South Fayette in a nonconference matchup in both 2018 and ’19. USC won 34-33 and 27-13. Staff Writer — I recently discovered a song by American country-folk singer-songwriter John Prine titled “Spanish Pipedream.” The song is about him meeting a girl who gave him the secret to a happy life; “Blow up your TV build you a home.” After listening to this I thought intently about trying to disconnect myself from the world and I realized all the negativity technology had in my life So enjoy my tirade dismissing technology like some boomer parent who hates how much their kid is on their phone Why are there so many cords for different devices These companies that make these cables must make a killing with all the different types of cables that are used for electronics Everyone has all the different cords they need for all their different technologies: two kinds of iPhone chargers The wires are generally the same internally they just carry power from one place to another So how hard is it to just have a universal cord that works for everything no more having people ask for an Android charger only to feel the embarrassment of being trapped in a room of iPhones But none of this would be a problem if we didn’t have so much tech in the first place.  Allow me to go on a quick tangent about pictures but just because you have a camera doesn’t mean you should always take pictures of wherever you are I almost resent seeing a beautiful sunrise in real life because I know I will soon go on Snapchat and see it on 15 different stories I feel like the topic of pictures is very relevant right now with the leaves currently falling from the trees and the storm of pictures that will inevitably come from this season I really have no qualms with these social media photographers I just wish sometimes they would enjoy nature and the beauty of life for what it is instead of photographing it Experiencing a sunrise is better if you see it with your own eyes so instead of taking pictures of it for your friends I’m going to close this diatribe by talking about social media which has become popular to hate recently.  A newfound hatred for the internet and social media has been a hot topic in music with notable artists like Logic and Post Malone addressing the subject on their recent singles/albums I wholeheartedly agree with their views about how social media is damaging to people Social media can be the source of some vile hatred thanks to the ability for those wishing to spread hateful messages to have the comfort of hiding behind a screen People say things they would never say to a person’s face on the internet but then they try to shrug it off when they get called out for it mean comments on the internet can still be damaging to a person’s self-esteem I guess the only way to avoid all this unnecessary strain on your life is to take John Prine’s advice Ethan Dahlem is doing well in his first season as Upper St Ethan Dahlem looks for a receiver downfield Ethan Dahlem may not be able to pull a rabbit out of his hat Clair junior is certainly a magician when it comes to leading the Panthers to victories on the football field he rallied USC’s 45-41 comeback win over Woodland Hills He completed 22 of 33 passes for a school-record 485 yards and three touchdowns “Ethan was composed and patient,” said head coach Mike Junko “He made great decisions under pressure and kept us in the game.” Dahlem has already surpassed the 1,000-yard passing plateau He has completed 55 of 87 attempts for 1,080 yards and nine touchdowns with a 199.3 quarterback rating he leads the team in rushing with 284 yards on 67 attempts He has scored a team-high six rushing touchdowns “Ethan has a quiet confidence that serves him well,” Junko said “He is not easily rattled and he has a great knack for extending the play “His ability to use his legs to get out of trouble and find receivers downfield after a play has broken down make him troublesome for defenses,” he added “He is also very intelligent so he makes really good pre- and post-snap decisions.” Dahlem’s best decision perhaps wasn’t his own would not permit it until he entered fourth grade Dahlem was destined for the position and maybe for greatness “All my friends wanted me to play and I always wanted to play,” said Dahlem Dahlem learned his fancy footwork from his father who played quarterback at Clearfield High School Pantelis had 13 receptions for 269 yards and one score Pantelis leads the team with 30 catches for 616 yards “David’s the best wide receiver in the WPIAL if not one of the top players,” Dahlem said Joe Lackner had four grabs for 102 yards and a touchdown Brandon Shearer had three receptions for 89 yards and the other score against the Wolverines Lackner and Shearer each have 139 yards receiving and Mateo Cepullio follows with 112 Charlie Eberle and Mateo Cepullio had receptions against the Wolverines Danny Harkleroad and Kolten Keller are also weapons in Dahlem’s arsenal “My receivers make me look good,” Dahlem said get out of the pocket and put the ball in an area where they can catch it The athletes do all the work and that’s a fact “It’s just my ability to execute the game plan USC works on a drill for when plays break down “Our receivers know what to do and I put the ball where our athletes are so that they get to do what they do best,” Dahlem said What Dahlem does best is engineer the offense He has honed that ability from playing point guard on the basketball team “Point guards and quarterbacks have to have the same qualities for leadership and communication skills and making sure everybody is all doing their job,” said Dahlem excelled in basketball for Bethany College He encourages his football players to compete in multiple sports but asks his quarterbacks to be “point guards” on the field “He is making a decision on every run and pass in our offense,” Junko said “His time on the basketball court has served him well as a quarterback in our system.” Dahlem’s personal make-up fits the USC system is all a credit to my mom,” said the 17-year-old son of Jennifer Dahlem “She taught me to treat people the way I wanted to be treated I care about everyone and I want to be nice to them “Coach Junko has developed a culture here that we are a family,” he added Dahlem’s success in his first season as a starter “Holding a passing record is amazing when you think about all the great quarterbacks that have come through here,” he said but I don’t think about it too much because you have to get your head right for the next game I want to make the plays and put the ball where it needs to be so we can win make the right plays so our team can win.” With only three returning starters and a rookie signal caller They are on pace to achieve goals not many expected especially under the new leadership of Junko No one thought we would be as good as we are now but we went into the season with the mentality that we wanted to prove that was all wrong,” Dahlem said we want to keep it up throughout the year because team-wise we plan to make the playoffs and make a deep run maybe even get to the WPIAL championships and get into the state playoffs.” Dahlem is surprised by his and the team’s progress He says the conference is so good that every team presents a tough matchup 25 regular season finale game against rival Bethel Park I believe in my guys and they believe in me We believe in each other each game no matter what the odds are against us I’m surprised with how well I’m playing so far,” he added you try not to get nervous and play your best it’s all thanks to my teammates and coaches All their support and all the hard work that we have done and our ability to execute.” but maybe get close to it again,” Dahlem said “While my strengths are when the play breaks down and I have the ability to scramble and find a receiver or run Junko predicts Dahlem will continue to grow “He is a fierce competitor and he is great to have in the locker room We are excited to see what the future holds for him The kind you love to root for,” Junko said People might be surprised to know this about you: I wear only one contact because I have a lazy left eye Why are your favorites athletes basketball and not football players I like them and they changed the game in a whole new way.” Get Cappers Farmer Delivered Directly To Your Inbox “I think we should start rebuilding now so later down the line we
