Let us rejoice and be glad in it." </p> <p>He thanked Rick Fortner, music director at All Souls Unitarian Church, for providing the spark years ago that resulted in the celebration, and for directing the community choir. </p> <p>Near the end of the celebration, 11 faith leaders representing the major religions of the world offered prayers of blessing for the new facility. </p> <p>Sitting side-by-side on the podium were spiritual leaders who were Methodist, Charismatic, Roman Catholic, Mormon, Greek Orthodox, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Unitarian, Buddhist and African Methodist Episcopal. </p> <p>"We decided to call it a multifaith event, rather than an interfaith event, which carries some connotations," said Jim Mishler, executive director of Tulsa Metropolitan Ministry, who helped plan the celebration. </p> <p>"We asked faith leaders to pray in their own tradition." </p> <p>As a result, several leaders used the term "in Jesus' name," a phrase generally frowned upon at interfaith events. </p> <p>Another prayed to Allah in Arabic, and another prayed in Sanskrit. Bishop Edward J. Slattery, of the Catholic Diocese of Tulsa, prayed in Spanish. </p> <p>English translations of the foreign language prayers were displayed on the scoreboard as the leaders prayed. </p> <p>A common theme running through the prayers was that the arena would be a blessing to the Tulsa community. </p> <p>Erling said the participation of such diverse faith leaders at one event "has probably never been done in our city to this degree." </p> <p>Mayor Kathy Taylor and BOK Center General Manager John Bolton spoke briefly. </p> <p>As the crowd streamed out of the arena, Jeramy Auld said of the celebration, "I thought it was great." </p> <p>"We're taxpayers," his wife Libby Auld said. "We thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be here." </p> <p>MORE: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/sambok2">tinyurl.com</a> </p> <p>****************************** *************************</p> <p>► <a href="http://MySpace.com/SamHarrisMusic">MySpace.com</a> <br />... keep up to date, and be Sam's MySpace friend!</p> <p>http://SamHarris.com <br />© All videos property of Sam Harris</p> </div> <a href="/blog/51523-rehearsal-of-this-little-light-of-mine-for-bok-center-concert">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/34517-hopes-fade-for-trapped-tanzanian-miners-1-april-08 2008-06-13T15:33:17Z aljazeera <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kvpdzHgJX_k&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kvpdzHgJX_k&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/34517-hopes-fade-for-trapped-tanzanian-miners-1-april-08"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/37664" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>More than 70 mine workers are feared dead in Tanzania after the area they were mining flooded following heavy rains.</p> <p>The rescue effort, which has largely been left to colleagues of the trapped men, has been hampered by a lack of equipment.</p> <p>From Mererani in northeastern Tanzania, Yvonne Ndege reports for Al Jazeera.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/34517-hopes-fade-for-trapped-tanzanian-miners-1-april-08">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/24372-headzup-bush-s-mine-safety 2008-06-06T15:34:52Z headzup <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/sYrlSBdILt4&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/sYrlSBdILt4&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/24372-headzup-bush-s-mine-safety"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/26372" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Dana Perino is asked about Bush reappointing Richard Stickler to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, even though he's been rejected twice by the Senate.</p> <p>Read more about it here-- <br />http://thinkprogress.org/2008/01/05/stickler-bush/</p> <p>Download daily Catch and Release Comedy&trade;
