Has anyone heard about a documentary movie, coming out on the health message of the Seventh-day Adventist Church the benefits which is being seen in members lives, and also the beliefs and the history of Seventh Day Adventist?

I received the following email a couple of hours ago:
ADRA is on the ground in Haiti and is supplying necessities for survival--water, food, medicines and shelter. Their aid and supplies are going out across that ravaged country to anyone in need, and as a church we are grateful to have them represent us in such a way.
However, our hearts go out in a special way to our Adventist brothers and sisters who have suffered so much. We have more than 335,000 church members in Haiti who need our help. We also have many churches and schools that have been destroyed.
So far, the following are the statistics about our members that we have received :
-600 members have been killed
-25,000 are homeless
-150 churches destroyed and many more need repairing
In addition to funds given to ADRA to further their response, the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada, along with its conferences, have decided to contribute in a targeted way to the reconstruction of these important facilities. Each conference office has already pledged funding from their own budget and now offer to every member in Canada an opportunity to give.
The North American Division, the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada, and the conferences across the country are asking our members to participate in a special offering for Haitian reconstruction projects to be administered directly from the offices of the Canadian Union.
THIS SPECIAL OFFERING will be taken on Sabbath, FEBRUARY 6 (some churches have chosen an earlier date) and we have titled this offering: "Haiti Disaster Reconstruction".
The needs are far greater than we know, and the destruction unbelievable. The church in Haiti needs us in North America to support them in every way possible.
Next week the SDACC will be emailing a bulletin insert to all the conferences to be sent out to the churches .
Anyone wishing to make early contributions or to carry on after the 6th of February are encouraged to place their donation in a tithe envelope and write "Haiti SDA Rebuild" on the envelope.
As information comes in, we will keep you informed about the projects that are most needed.

Announcement
"At the NAD Year-end Meetings we were shown a pre-release version of a new documentary called “The Adventists” that will premier on PBS next Easter weekend. This film, produced by religious filmmaker Martin Doblmeier, emphasizes the integration of our theology and health message. It features work being done at Loma Linda University, Kettering Health, Florida Hospital and our own St. Helena Hospital. Be watching for more details about this outstanding film.”
This was posted on another Adventist Forum. Do Canadians have access to PBS television channels?

The following are the "Rules For Working Reported Posts":
1 - Reported Posts: Obviously inappropriate content may be removed immediately, provided a quote of the complete original content of the reported post was first quoted in the report thread.
2 - Time Limit: Not to normally exceed 14 days after the date of the post being reported.
3 - Working Reports: Reports will be worked by all members of the Admin Team, whether or not they are a moderator of that particular forum where the post was reported.
4 - Consensus: Will be determined by a majority of three before consensus is declared in which it will be determined if there was a RV and what type of action should be taken, whether a CPM (Counselling PM), a WPM (Warning PM), or an IPM (Infraction PM).
5 - Action: When consensus has been reached, the action to be taken will be done, either by one of the Moderators of that forum, or by the Global Moderator, or by the Administrator.
6 - PMs: - Will only be written to the person reported as to what type of action was taken. NOTE: No communication will be made to the person who reported the post, other than saying that the report is being worked on and any action taken, if any, will only be communicated to the person reported.
=========
CPM (Counselling PM) = No Points.
WPM (Warning PM) = 1 Warning Point.
FSB PM (Warning PM with FSB) = 1 Warning Point.
IPM (Infraction PM) = 1 Infraction Point.
Points:
4 Warning Points will result in a one week site ban.
4 Infraction Points will result in a one month site ban.
Cooling-Off Bans and/or FSBs (Forum Specific Bans)
1[/b] - A Cooling-Off Ban can be requested, if it looks like a member is being so disruptive as to affect the tone, etc.
2 - A 14-Day-FSB-PM or a 30-Day-FSB-PM can be issued, if it is felt by consensus that a member should not be posting in any particular forum/s of Maritime. Failure to comply would result in a site-wide ban for the remainder of the period of the FSB.

For those using IE, the centering problem has now been fixed.
Upon being told about it today, it only took me a few minutes to find and correct the problem.
If anybody discovers or already knows about any other technical problems, please let me know by PM.
