New Volvo XC90 to be revealed in 2014
* Set to be first Volvo fitted with self-driving technology * Revealed next year, on sale in 2015 * Could become a five-seater...
The replacement for the Volvo XC90 SUV will be revealed next year, although it won't go on sale until 2015.
It is set to be the first Volvo fitted with self-driving technology, including an 'Adaptive Cruise Control with Active Steering' system.
This is a system that will autonomously steer the car and keep it moving in pace with other vehicles in low-speed conditions such as heavy congestion. A similar system is set to be available in the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
More advanced autonomous driving concepts, such as platooning where cars electronically connect to one another and are then driven by a single lead vehicle should be ready within 5-6 years.
Volvo believes that as many as 50% of drivers are willing to consider autonomous driving, suggesting that the technology has a viable future. Volvo's vice-president of product planning, Toscan Bennett, told What Car? that the company intends to sell a car with the equipment fitted where it is legally allowed to do so.
Precise details are not yet available on the new XC90, but Bennett said that it will offer 'all the strengths that make the current car so appealing to buyers'.
However, he also made reference to the current trend for downsizing, suggesting that seven-seat SUVs are not necessarily as popular as they once were. A five-seat XC90 is a possibility, therefore.

When it comes to Texas heat, you need a strong and durable window that will be able to withstand the climate—that's where aluminum windows come in handy.
When you need your existing windows replaced in Katy, Ultra Windows is the company to know. Great products require great installation, and that's exactly what we provide with one single crew of installation professionals who have been with us for the past fourteen years.

When you want dependable windows that will protect your home from the harsh Texas weather, you need aluminum windows. Contact Ultra Windows today to learn more!
Why Choose Aluminum Windows?
Ultra aluminum windows incorporate a thermal break into the aluminum frame which effectively separates the interior half of the window from the exterior half. This insulating thermal break reduces the conduction of heat and cold through the metal frame and eliminates the chance of condensation. That's not all! Aluminum frames are incredibly strong and won't easily bow or warp in the extreme summer heat as other windows often do.
Aluminum windows are a top choice for Katy homeowners. They are rated as follows:
- Solar Heat Gain – .19 – .21
- U-value – .42
- Air Leakage – .03 (about five times as air tight as an average vinyl window)
- Design Pressure Rating – LC50 – Light Commercially Rated!
Features of Aluminum Windows
Ultra Windows understand that choosing windows can be a stressful process—but we don't want it to be! If you are looking for an affordable option that is customizable, then aluminum windows might be the right choice for your Katy home. Ours offer the following customizable features:
- Color – this window solution comes in white, bronze, tan, and silver (which is an upcharge)
- Style – with aluminum windows, you aren't stuck with a single style—you can choose from double hung, single hung, slider, casements, picture windows, and sliding glass doors
- Glass – similar to the style, you can customize the type of glass to be double pane, double strength glass, argon gas, Duralite non-metal spacer, and Guardians 5527 Low Solar Low E (tempered, obscure, and laminated glass are also available)
- Grids – you have both flat and contoured grid options
- Screens – for better lighting and improved airflow, these windows use BetterVue screens in half or full length (solar screens are also available

HOLLAND - Basketball has been described by some as "poetry in motion." The world of high school basketball is shared through poetry itself in the latest collection by nationally-recognized poet Jack Ridl, professor emeritus of English at Hope College.
Ridl's collection "Losing Season," being released in September by Cavan Kerry Press, follows a fictional, small-town high school team and its community in an experience lived out annually for decades across the country. Capturing the perspective of a mix of participants - coach, players, family, fans - and chronicling highs and lows along the way, the individual poems together create a composite view of a year of hope and defeat both on and off the basketball court.
Poet Conrad Hilberry has called the volume "unmatched, I believe, anywhere in American poetry."
"I've never seen a poetry book as clearly focused as this one, as though a smart documentary filmmaker had hung around the gym all season filming until we can see and feel every hole and knot in the sad fabric of that failed year," he said. "These poems are so compelling, so varied, so familiar to anyone who has felt the impact of high school sports that they may well introduce a new genre."
Ridl's writing is informed by his perspective growing up as the son of acclaimed basketball coach C.G. "Buzz" Ridl, who had coached at both the University of Pittsburgh and Westminster College. Through the years he has written dozens of sports-themed poems and essays that have been published broadly. In 2007, he was named one of the 100 most influential sports educators in America, recognized as "sports poet," by the Institute for International Sport.
Divided into four quarters, like a game itself, "Losing Season" traces a cycle of hope and disappointment as lived by the high school team. From the "First Cut" to the "Last Game," the season unfolds with a forced confidence quickly tempered by resignation.
At the center of the drama is the coach himself, who in middle age struggles with the tension between his devotion to his job and his marriage and the widening gap between himself and his daughter. The players themselves - be they Star or Scrub - harbor their own internal quarrels and dreams. A small local coterie clings to the team's miserable season, from the equipment man and bus driver to the town's shop owners and the school's principal, each placing his own misguided optimism in the team's inevitable fate.
"'Losing Season' isn't just a great book of poetry, for it is much more than that," said Richard Jones. "It is more like the Great American Novel we have long hoped would grace our literary landscape."
Ridl was a member of the Hope faculty from 1971 until retiring in 2006. He has continued to stay involved in the life of the college, continuing to teach poetry for several semesters and leading one of the college's week-long Summer Seminars, "Creative Writing: Poetry: Learning from Some Masters," in July. In 2008, he previewed "Losing Season" during the college's "Winter Happening" event in January.
He is the author of several collections of poetry. He has also published more than 300 poems in journals and has work included in numerous anthologies, and has read his work and led workshops at colleges, universities, art colonies and other venues around the country.
His collection "Broken Symmetry" was named one of the two best volumes of poetry published in 2006 by the Society of Midland Authors, and in 2001 his collection "Against Elegies" was chosen by U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins as the winner of the "Letterpress Chapbook Competition" sponsored by the Center for Book Arts of New York City. Ridl's other volumes include "The Same Ghost," "Between," "After School," "Poems from 'The Same Ghost' and 'Between,'" and "Outside the Center Ring."
In addition to his volumes of poetry, Ridl is co-author, with Hope colleague Peter Schakel, of two textbooks, "Approaching Poetry: Perspectives and Responses" (1996) and "Approaching Literature in the 21st Century: Fiction, Poetry, and Drama" (2004). They also co-edited two anthologies.
In 1996, he was chosen Michigan's "Professor of the Year" by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The college's graduating class presented him with the "Hope Outstanding Professor Educator" Award in 1976, and the student body elected him recipient of the "Favorite Faculty/Staff Member" Award in 2003. He was chosen by the graduating seniors to be the Commencement speaker in both 1975 and 1986. The college's Visiting Writers Series, which he co-founded in 1982 with his wife Julie Garlinghouse Ridl, was named in his honor in 2006.
Westminster College, from which he holds both his bachelor's and master's degrees, presented him with an "Alumni Citation Award" in September 2005.
"Losing Season" will be available for $16, and will be on sale following its September release at the college's Hope-Geneva Bookstore, located on the ground level of the DeWitt Center, 141 E. 12th St., as well as at other area booksellers. Copies may be pre-ordered at the bookstore, which can be called at 800-946-4673 or (616) 395-7833, as well as at Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Only Idolators Can Compare Gods: On Wheaton College and Dr. Hawkins
Do Muslims Worship the Same God?
If you can answer "yes" or "no" to this question, you've got yourself a problem. And that's exactly where Wheaton College has found itself thanks to the words of one of its professors, Dr. Larycia Alaine Hawkins. In her attempt to love her Muslim neighbors, she affirmed (citing Pope Francis) that Christians worship the same God as Muslims. Obviously the stakes are high here, particularly for an evangelical institution that holds mission work to be central to its calling. So now a beautiful act of solidarity and compassion has been turned into a big problem (funny how often that happens).
In a certain sense, this problem can be easily resolved. In another sense, it can't. The easy solution is a theological one (Miroslav Volf takes a fiery stab at the difficult problem here). Since it's still rather early in the morning for me, I will content myself to address the easy one. The trouble is that this whole discussion has gotten of on the wrong foot. To be as blunt as possible (too blunt, in fact!):
Only idolators can compare gods.
The Christian tradition has always held that God is strictly incomprehensible, a consequence of which is that God is "ineffable," that is, beyond superlative and therefore beyond our ability to speak of as we speak of created realities. This point bears directly on the problem we are examining. The moment that God can be analyzed as a concept and compared to other concepts of God, one has stepped away from the classical Christian tradition. One has, as it were, brought God out of heaven and made God a thing within creation: an idol. Depending on the heart of one's piety, this may or may not be a problem (see this stunning story by the Muslim mystic, Rumi (thank you Adam!), for what I mean). Even so, idols are dangerous! Once we seemingly have God—the ultimate truth and power—within our conceptual grasp, those we deem as serving another god must be outside the truth of reality. If one happens to be of a compassionate disposition, one will attempt to convert them to one's own concept of God, if not… well, we've seen where that has been going lately.
However, the alternative is not a necessary one. And this is true even in the face of the somewhat misinformed objection that Muslims are monotheists while Christians are trinitarian. Have we just run into some god concepts here? The non-catechized, non-theologian will be forgiven for thinking that we have. But in reality, we have just stumbled into strange linguistic world of theology.
When doing theology, that is, when attempting to think and speak about God, one is engaging in an impossible act. We use words that have their origins within creation to speak of that which is the "source" of creation (scare quotes here to warn the reader not to mistake the word "source" for our creaturely experience of things that have a source, like children and rivers. See the difficulty here?).
To make my point by way of an authority a good bit more vast than my own, consider this remarkable passage from St. Augustine (For those unacquainted, Augustine is perhaps the greatest patriarch of the Christian church in history). After going into some detail attempting to explain the nature of the Trinity, he says the following:
Have we spoken or announced anything worthy of God? Rather I feel that I have done nothing but wish to speak: if I have spoken, I have not said what I wished to say. Whence do I know this, except because God is ineffable? If what I said were ineffable, it would not be said. And for this reason God should not be said to be ineffable, for when this is said something is said. And a contradiction in terms is created, since if that is ineffable which cannot be spoken, then that is not ineffable which can be called ineffable. This contradiction is to be passed over in silence rather than resolved verbally. For God, although nothing worthy may be spoken of Him, has accepted the tribute of the human voice and wished us to take joy in praising Him with our words. (On Christian Teaching)
Likewise, Pope Francis never said that Muslims worship the "same" God (as if God can be compared!). At a celebratory gathering in Rome of fraternal delegates of churches, ecclesial communities and international ecumenical bodies, Pope Francis welcomed the attendants by saying, "I then greet and cordially thank you all, dear friends belonging to other religious traditions; first of all the Muslims, who worship the one God, living and merciful…" For Pope Francis, steeped in the Christian tradition as he his, "The one God" does not designate a god concept, in the same way that the Trinity does not cash out a god concept. These are words and formulas that have as their referent the all-embracing reality, beyond, within, and through our frail creaturely experience. We call that reality God, even while warning that in doing so we, with Augustine, release any conceptual claim and speak, instead, with joy and praise.
Finally, it is worth recognizing that these linguistic maneuvers are patterned after the the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. The divinity of Christ consisted in, not in entering the world as a god to confront all other gods, but rather, manifesting the divine in the act of giving himself away, without limit.
This is what I see Dr. Hawkins attempting to do in identifying with those who are being marginalized and threatened by the dominant culture. And that's the sense in which this whole problem cannot be easily resolved. The deeper root is not linguistic, but ethical and tightly wrapped within the prevailing power structures. Perhaps Wheaton would retract their suspension if a more nuanced understanding of these words, indeed, these ethics(!), could be appreciated? We can and ought pray for it. May Christ be with them as he is clearly with Dr. Hawkins.

(The Root) — Professor Cornel West has struck again. The always outspoken Obama critic recently said in an interview with Democracy Now: "I think that it's morally obscene and spiritually profane to spend $6 billion on an election, $2 billion on a presidential election, and not have any serious discussion — poverty; trade unions being pushed against the wall, dealing with stagnating and declining wages when profits are still up and the 1 percent are doing very well; no talk about drones dropping bombs on innocent people … I mean, I'm glad there was not a right-wing takeover, but we end up with a Republican, a Rockefeller Republican in blackface, with Barack Obama, so that our struggle with regard to poverty intensifies."
Putting aside the substance in West's comments, since there are certainly valid and substantive policy critiques to be made of the Obama administration, it is completely unnecessary for him to attack the president in such a racialized and offensive manner. Any good points he made are lost.
This isn't the first time that the Princeton and Union Theological Seminary professor has attacked the president as a person instead of sticking to policy. West has previously called the president a "black mascot of Wall Street oligarchs and a black puppet of corporate plutocrats." West and his partner Tavis Smiley (they have a public-radio show together, Smiley & West), also an outspoken Obama critic, have failed, time and again, to keep their critiques focused on policy when commenting on the shortcomings of the Obama administration.
High-profile black intellectuals who dared to support the president in public are not immune from the wrath of West and Smiley, either. The Rev. Al Sharpton, Melissa Harris-Perry and Michael Eric Dyson are "for sale" for access to Obama, according to West. This an interesting choice of words, considering Smiley's history with corporate sponsors including Wells Fargo and Exxon Mobil.
Perhaps, with a second Obama win, West and Smiley feel their influence diminishing within the black community, which supported the re-election of President Obama with even higher turnout than in 2008 in key states, despite criticism. President Obama has been elected and re-elected, and the old guard of black political thought is becoming more and more marginalized as a result. No longer does a black politician need to be ordained by Smiley or grace the stage of his (now-canceled) State of the Black Union speech-a-thon to be considered a contender for high office.
There are legitimate critiques of the president and serious issues to tackle during his second term. The challenge for Obama critics is to point out areas that absolutely need to be addressed — high black unemployment and, yes, poverty — without attacking the president as a man. With pride continuing to cloud their critiques of President Obama, West and Smiley have failed to do this time and again. It seems that they are facing a future in the black-intellectual wilderness over the next four years.
Let's hope that during Obama's next term, we can all work together to push the president and his administration to make big changes (or at least use his bully pulpit to talk about big changes, since the balance of power in Congress is unchanged) that will benefit the lives of the millions who voted for him. Offering constructive criticism and applying public pressure that is intended to assist the president rather than undermine him is a much more effective strategy going forward. Maybe more high-profile black thinkers will take note.

That's why I reblogged somebody's post yesterday after I posted my usual article about genealogy and wishing my distant cousin Dennis Merry Christmas.
Being a former teacher and a new grandfather so many emotions raced through my mind that I could not talk about what happened in Connecticut on December 14,2012.
Still can't.
Reading comments made by some people about arming teachers was too much. But still, I could not talk about it on this blog.
Many people whom I tried to talk to about it can't talk about it also.
This is so unreal. It feels like the end of the world…
People who can't talk about it want their leaders to act now!
I hope they are listening.
So… Can we talk?

The Parental Experience
At its best, the experience of parenting is one of both teaching our children and learning from them. As our youth mature to adulthood, our role shifts from 'teacher' to 'coach and sounding board.' Finding our way requires courage, persistence, faith and forgiveness.
- Linda Williams, MA Psych. Program Coordinator, Learning Strategies Development, Queen's University
Enrolling your child at university is a significant transition for parents, guardians and families. Much as you may have raised your child to be motivated to develop themselves academically, personally and in other ways, it is a hard reality when you leave him/her at university, often miles away, and frequently without family close by! It is a safe assumption that you will experience many of the same up and down emotions as your student, plus parental concern for their well-being.
Family Background and Context
Families at Queen's come from many different backgrounds and contexts, and therefore have varying parenting styles, family models, and concepts of "self".
Your student's growing independence may challenge your traditional roles as parent. Students will need to make independent decisions and show initiative in the university environment e.g. when setting time priorities or participating in group projects or labs.
For many, these will be new skills, and especially challenging for students of closely-knit families. Students will do best if they are encouraged to develop the self-confidence to be autonomous, while remaining connected to their family and friends.
Family Values
Families are often concerned that the values with which their student has been raised will be forgotten in the new university experience.
It may be challenging for parents to watch their student explore new ways of thinking, believing, acting or dressing but these activities are important in the development of the unique person that your student will become.
One advantage of your student experimenting with new bedtimes, new eating styles, new political ideas, or new career interests is that he/she is doing so within a caring community, at an age-appropriate period of time, and with support resources available.
Students will learn much by "doing", and then by "managing" the outcome of their decisions, but only if they are given the opportunity.
Emerging adults see themselves both as separate from, and a part of, their family. If this is the first student in your family to leave home, your own feelings of separation, loss and change of role may surprise you.
Your role may be to express your trust that your student will learn and become responsible for himself/herself and to point him/her in a helpful direction when asked.
Parents as Advocates
Parents or guardians who have had a very active advocacy role for their child for reasons of mental or physical health concerns, disability issues, personal challenges, etc. may experience strong mixed emotions of uncertainty, relief, fear, hope, and/or excitement as their student attends university.
We suggest that you encourage your student to connect with appropriate resources on campus, and that you set up regular (but not too frequent) check-ins.

Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Patrice Bergeron scored two goals and the Boston Bruins blanked Chicago, 3-0, in the Blackhawks' first visit to TD Garden since winning the Stanley Cup last June. Tuukka Rask made 28 saves for his NHL-leading seventh shutout of the season, as the Bruins improved to 13-0-1 in their last 14 games. "You never want to play on your heels," Boston head coach Claude Julien said. "When you've got a one-goal lead, you want to extend it before you even think of protecting the lead." Corey Crawford stopped 20 shots for the Blackhawks, who were shut out for the second time in three games. Chicago is one point away from clinching a playoff berth for the sixth straight year. "We're looking to get one more win," Blackhawks head coach Joel Quenneville said. Bergeron went to the slot and redirected Matt Bartkowski's point shot past Crawford, extending his goal streak to five games and giving Boston a 1-0 lead at 11:50 of the first period. Carl Soderberg and Bergeron scored 13 seconds apart in the third period to provide the Bruins with some breathing room. Johnny Boychuk kept a puck whipped off the boards by Brandon Bollig in at the right point and fired a shot that didn't reach Crawford. Blackhawks defenseman Nick Leddy swept the puck to the stick of Soderberg and he scored from the bottom of the right circle at 5:28. The Bruins struck again after Crawford turned the puck over behind his net. Brad Marchand stole the goaltender's pass and quickly fed Bergeron, who fired a shot from near the bottom of the left circle. Caught out of position, Crawford tried to dislodge the net. The net fell forward, but remained on its moorings when the puck crossed the goal line at 5:41. Game Notes The Bruins reached the 50-win mark for the ninth time in team history ... Bergeron extended his point streak to six games (6 goals, 2 assists) ... The Blackhawks were 0-for-2 on the power play and have now gone 0-for-20 with the man advantage in their last seven road games ... Chicago forward Bryan Bickell missed a fourth straight game with an upper-body injury.
