Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to you all! I hope everyone had fun hunting the Easter Eggs and enjoyed a fine meal.

Trying out the new Google Reader Share post

I just heard about the Google Reader ( lets you read RSS Feeds from around the web), so they have a Reader Share widget here at Blogger that I'm trying out.

I have subscribed to a couple of World News Feeds and I found this story that I would like to Share :)
So here is the link to my Shared stories: Matthew Maiden's Shared News Reader Posts

The ULC Radio Program is back.

I want to apologize to all of the listeners for the long absence. There was an unscheduled and unannounced (sorry), hiatus due to a family emergency.

Now the Universal Life Church Radio Program is back on track and the first show back on the ULC Radio is answering all of the questions about the Church and being ordained.

You can listen and download the show from the recording site at: BlogtalkRadio/ulcradio
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Celebrities That The Universal Life Church Has Ordained

I thought it would be fun to list some of the well know celebs that have been ordained by the ULC. So here are a few:
Johnny Carson, The Beatles, Richard Branson, (founder and head of Virgin Group)

Tony Danza, The Honky Tonk Man, (professional wrestler) Carson Kressley (Queer Eye)

Wolfman Jack, Jesse G. James (motorcycle builder) Courtney Love, Alanis Morissette,

Jeff Probst (Survivor), Jerry Reinsdorf (sports owner, performed a marriage on the field at a Chicago White Sox game), Tori Spelling, Sharon Stone, John Waters (director)

Who would like to help me make a few calls to see if we can get some of them on the radio show.

First show Tue Jan 23

Well the first show was yesterday morning with Murph from the ULC forum at ULC.net

About 40 mins long and it could have gone on longer but being the first show I was still working the bugs out.

I would like to find a place to host all of the recordings somewhere other than BlogTalk. Need to see if that can be here at Blogger or if that would be too much bandwidth. (just thinking out loud) Just found out. No. Blogger does not host those files.

If anyone has any ideas about storing the shows and / or about show ideas and schedules, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks

My new logo

Well I tried my hand at making a header logo and you can see it in action above.
I liked the idea of using a Universal Life Church seal but this was the best I could come up with.
I wanted to keep our slogan "Do that which is right" because that is the belief that "makes us one" here in the ULC.

Remember that you don't have to be ordained in the Universal Life Church to be part of this kind of freedom of religion.

Enough of the preaching:) Back to the logo...

If someone has a better idea please let me know.

Getting the shows ready to go.

I'm still getting the shows ready and lined up for the next week.
Right now I am trying to contact a few people in the Universal Life Church community about interviews.

If anyone has a show idea or someone that you would like to hear please send an email to me at: matt@ulcradio.com

Once the radio program is running full tilt it will be a nice show for the ULC members as well as others not familiar with the Universal Life Church to get more information.
