Many of you know that you can buy Prilosec in almost every pharmacy or drug store in North America, but because Prilosec is an over the counter medication you can also buy it online. Buying Prilosec online is a good way to save a bit of money, and sometimes even save a lot of money.
Where is the best place to buy Prilosec Online?
I have looked around for the best deal online, and compared the online prices to the price of Prilosec in the stores. After a lot of searching I found that the lowest, and most consistent pricing is on Amazon. If you want to check out the deals visit the Prilosec page on Amazon. I find that there are a few advantages to buying online vs in the stores, like free shipping and better prices.
Many people worry about the cost of shipping when ordering online, however Amazon offers free shipping with most orders over $25. Another advantage to buying online vs buying with a Prilosec coupon is the power to buy in bulk. If you buy in bulk online you can purchase as many items as you want. Say the price online is $5 cheaper, you can buy 1, 5, 10 or more, making your savings unlimited. With a coupon you are usually limited to one purchase.
What is the difference in price online?
The price difference is quite notable online vs in the stores. When comparing prices it seems that Prilosec is usually about 20% cheaper online. When calculating the difference you need to compare the equal prices. To get the best deal purchase the 48 pack instead of the 12 pack because you will get a better value. Also
How Does Prilosec Work?
Prilosec is a proton pump inhibitor that helps reduce the acid in your stomach. You can learn more in the video below

Niall Horan: 'I'm carefree about death threats'
Niall Horan has claimed that he doesn't worry about any death threats made against him.
The One Direction star, who this week celebrated his 19th birthday, admitted he takes a rather relaxed approach when it comes to those who take against him:
"I know other celebrities get freaked out about the death threats but I'm really carefree about it.
"I know more people like me than hate me, so I just chill. And if anyone wants to take a hit at me, I've got my big burly bodyguards: they're not going to get past them!"
The 'One Thing' singer, who recently quashed rumours that he was dating Demi Lovato, also revealed that he simply ignores the sites and Twitter accounts that post abusive messages about him:
"I refuse to read the bad things and abuse that people post online to me, and it's only a small minority that say bad stuff.
"It's a few very brave girls sitting behind a computer thinking they can do and say whatever they want."

Note: numbering was not done in a particular order. Want even more? Head over to our videos hub!
Cannabis Culture
1) Getting Doug with High
The obvious first one on the list.
Getting Doug with High is a new weekly stream of Doug Benson getting high with celebrities. It's live on Wednesday's at 4.15 PM PST. Or, you can go to Doug's YouTube channel and watch the recorded interviews.
I think I've pretty much watched them all and I can't recommend watching it enough to other stoners.
If you like to get high and watch other people get high, you should definitely consider subscribing!
2) High Maintenance
High Maintenance is a web series created by husband and wife team Ben Sinclair and Katja Blichfeld and produced by Janky Clown Productions. Created a year ago, Janky Clown is a collaborative effort between Blichfeld (Emmy Award-nominated casting director on NBC's "30 Rock" and CW's "The Carrie Diaries"), Sinclair (Actor and editor, has appeared on "Delocated", "30 Rock", "A Gifted Man", "Law & Order: SVU", and "The Big C"), and Russell Gregory (talent manager and owner of Regarding Entertainment).
The series follows around a nameless marijuana dealer, delivering his precious goods around New York City. Every episode features a new, usually stressed out character (or multiple), waiting around for "the guy" to come by. At some point the transaction is made in a usually, odd situation.
The show's quite funny and has been featured as vimeo staff pick a couple of times.
Consciousness & Psychedelics
3) Reset.me
Amber Lyon, 3-time Emmy award winning journalist, was a CNN journalist covering social justice issues which lead to her suffering from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. An Ayahuasca treatment cured her of the disorder and led to a radical spiritual and career shift.
Lyon is developing a website, Reset.Me, which strives to provide accurate journalism on psychedelics and alternative therapies for depression, anxiety, stress, PTSD, addiction, and other health conditions.
"We seek to give those who need to hit the 'reset' button in life information for improving mental and physical well being.Through the aggregation of content and production of independent journalism by experienced reporters, Reset.Me aims to create an open discussion surrounding psychedelics and alternative therapies."
4) Omega Point
Omega Point is a series of eye-opening videos by Omid Pakbin mainly based on Alan Watts and Terence Mckenna's ideas, lectures and books. The short videos are a good start in your journey to discovering Alan Watts, Terence Mckenna, Carl Sagan and many more inspirational people.
5) Joe Rogan Experience
The Joe Rogan Experience is a biweekly online YouTube podcast with a huge following and many interesting guests from all different fields. From Neuroscientists to MMA fighters, outdoorsmen to comics. The podcasts are very long (3 hours!) but are uncencensored and cover basically everything Joe and his guest(s) can come up with. I've personally found it extremely relaxing to listen to while working.
6) Shots of Awe
Ever ponder the miracle of life? Or perhaps wonder about the evolution of intelligence? In Shots of Awe, "Performance Philosopher" Jason Silva chases his inspiration addiction as he explores these topics and more. Every week Jason freestyles his way into the complex systems of society, technology and human existence and discusses the truth and beauty of science in a form of existential jazz.
7) Tragedy & Hope
Tragedy & Hope is a YouTube channel dedicated to creating inspiring and thought provoking videos, that change the way people view themselves and the world around them. It is similar in a way to Omega Point with many videos that can potentially shift your perspective.
Informative & Educational
8) Vice & Vice News
Vice is known in many cannabis enthusiast circles, mostly becuase of their excellent cannabis coverage they have been providing over the years. Their new channel Vice News was launched together with their HBO series.
9) Vsauce
Vsauce is one of the most popular (and rightfully so) informative YouTube channels out there. If you weren't convinced yet, Vsauce learns you how amazing our world really is with mind-blowing facts and the best the internet has to serve!
10) Vox
Want to understand the news rather than it just being reported on? Check out the VOX (with a V yes, not an F!) YouTube channels
11) Last Week Tonight with Jon Oliver
While Last Week Tonight with Jon Oliver isn't only a YouTube channel but rather an HBO show, it's still worth a mention. Many of their longform journalism/comedy pieces they post on their YouTube channel to further increase awareness for various topics.

Tips For Buying Health & Wellness Supplements Online
Many people do not realize that shopping online is a viable option when it comes to buying health & wellness supplements. Http://www.dietpillsdetective.com/health-wellness/ has a few tips that will help those who are not familiar with the concept.
The first thing that you should understand when shopping for health & wellness supplements on the Internet is the fact that every company is not legitimate. Do not allow the promise of big discounts and free shipping to convince you to hand over your financial information to just anyone. Check out any website you are considering thoroughly. Here are a few signs that they are legitimate:
- They have links to a privacy policy.
- Contact information is transparent on the site.
- There are security seals located on several pages.
- There aren't any glaring errors on the page.
These things show that customer security, satisfaction and privacy are important to the business, and that is a great way to do business.
Always read the fine print when buying supplements. Sometimes the prices offered seem too good to be true and you jump right away, then you realize later that the prices were low because there is a small number of supplements in each bottle. Reading everything thoroughly will help you avoid disappointment later.
Check the BBB website to make sure that numerous unanswered complaints do not exist for any merchant you are considering. While it is common for any business to have unhappy customers, the way they handle it is far more important.
You should not be intimidated at the thought of using the Internet as a source for health supplements. Being careful and educating yourself can result in a positive shopping experience. Use everything you have learned here to ensure a positive experience.

A citizens committee reviewing Memorial Health System ownership and governance has issued a letter to the community. In the interest of informing our community, we offer you the letter in its entirety:
April 9, 2010
Dear Citizens of Colorado Springs,
Your City Council-appointed Citizens' Commission on Ownership and Governance of Memorial Hospital System (MHS Commission) is up and running. We are tasked by Council with gathering information, soliciting viewpoints and making recommendations concerning possible changes in city-owned Memorial Health System's ownership and/or governance to accomplish the following, equally-prioritized objectives:
Minimize taxpayer financial and legal exposure
Maximize MHS's benefit to the community, including high-quality care and economic/financial impact
Access to excellent health care designed and delivered around community needs.
During our first five weeks, we have met with our Mayor and City Council members, and have received our charter and the collective guidance of the Council. We have also held five publicly-announced open meetings to discuss how best to achieve our objectives. At those meeting we have heard from MHS' CEO Dr. Larry McEvoy, Colorado Springs City Attorney Patricia Kelly, Executive Director of the El Paso County Department of Health & Environment Kandi Buckland, and MHS' Board of Trustees.
During the next two to three months, we will concentrate on understanding and communicating the place and function of MHS in our community's system of health and wellness. In the months that follow, we will analyze, discuss, and communicate MHS's ownership options, including maintaining the current situation, and their relative benefits and risks to the community. Finally, we will discuss and decide what to recommend to City Council. Throughout this process, we will do our best to communicate with the citizens (our neighbors) of Colorado Springs we are serving. We encourage you to attend our meetings, read and view the media reports, and, especially, let us know what questions you have and your views on this very important topic.
· Meeting times/dates and places, as well as summary minutes of each Commission meeting, will be posted on the Commission's blog (http://ccogmhs.wordpress.com) and on the Commission's web page, hosted on the city's website, springsgov.com
· Generally speaking, local news media representatives attend each Commission meeting and report on the proceedings. MHS also blogs the proceedings live (http://thefutureofhealthcare.com).
· We have tasked a committee of the Commission with exploring and recommending ways to ensure that we have a robust community engagement process.
· In addition, we have incorporated, and will continue to incorporate, the ideas of our fellow citizens who take time to attend and participate in this process.
What lies ahead: learning about the basic ownership and governance options and analyzing them through several lenses—the lens of community benefit, the lens of access to care and the lens of risk. In addition, the Commission will be learning from many different experts as well as other communities who have experienced a transition in hospital ownership
We want to assure our fellow citizens that we will continue to be open in our deliberations and inclusive in our communications. Within the next few weeks we will have a "Plan of Action and Milestones" on the Commission website that will allow you to follow our progress. Also, please feel free to contact us with any ideas, thoughts, and/or suggestions you may have.
As we continue to move forward, please be assured that the members of this Commission are committed to ethical, honorable and forthright deliberations. We intend ultimately to present to City Council a fair recommendation, based on facts as they are presented, in the best interests of us all, now and for the future..
The MHS Commission

Corin Tucker Band
Corin Tucker was a founding member (along with Carrie Brownstein and Lora Mac Farlane) of indie legend Sleater-Kinney, a band named after a street in Olympia, WA, the group's hometown. Sleater-Kinney released seven albums in 11 years before going on hiatus in '06.
Bands, especially an indie outfit, usually appreciate any publicity but an interview with Spin magazine blew up big. The group discussed a variety of subjects but the big news was that Tucker and Brownstein were dating. Tucker's bisexuality, and her subsequent break-up with Brownstein, drew undue attention. Tucker went on to marry filmmaker Lance Bangs in '00 and the couple had two children (Marshall and Glory).
The Corin Tucker Band was launched with help from Sara Lund (Unwound) and Seth Lorinczi (Golden Bears). October, '10, saw the release of debut album, "1,000 Years," (called a "middle-aged mom record").
The group's second album, "Kill My Blues," dropped two years later and was supported by a national tour.
2010 1,000 Years
2012 Kill My Blues
The opening tracks on "1,000 Years," with the exception of "Half A World Away," which utilizes African rhythms, saunters along without much of interest, even for middle-aged moms. But that changes with "Doubt," a power chord track reminiscent of vintage Pretenders. "Riley" and "Big Goodbye" are Alt. Rock gems flashing urgency and drive.
"Kill My Blues," all jangling and energetic, will do just that. The best elements of "1,000 Years" are emphasized. The spirited "Groundhog Day," "Neskowin," which is partially based on youthful adventures in the small Oregon coast town of the same name, and "I Don't' Wanna Go," where Tucker pulls out her best Chrissie Hynde impersonation (The Pretenders again), are the main attractions. This is good ol' guitar driven Rock n' Roll. Can't beat that.

How far is it worth driving for "cheap gas?"
Let's say I have a gas station near me (or on my route or whatever), but that I know another gas station elsewhere is selling gas for ten cents less. Is it worth it for me to go out of the way to buy it cheaper?
When I fill up, I usually get about 12 gallons. So, the trip must be worth $1.20 for me to make it. Since gas is about $3.60 right now, I am saving about 1/3 of a gallon of gas to get to this other station.
My car gets about 27 miles to the gallon, so to be worth the 1/3 of a gallon, it must be less than 9 miles (round trip) for me to go out of the way to get it and come back.
This seems like a decent open-ended question for students to fill in with their own numbers for their cars.

Cheap Gas

This is an excellent question for getting students talking about practical math. Thank you!ReplyDelete

Love this.ReplyDelete
May I observe that this assumes that your time is worth nothing?
I would maybe be more convinced by a model that incorporates some reasonable hourly rate for gas-fetching services. Say minimum wage. No idea what that is right now (fortunately). But if we did know that, then we could factor the cost of your time into things. And I'm gonna be surprised if it's ever worth your time.
I have tried this argument with my father. He will not listen. He evidently believes not only that his own time is worth nothing, but also that the time of everyone else in the car is worth nothing.

Zalman NC-1000 Laptop Cooler Review
The Zalman ZM-NC1000 Ultra Quiet Notebook Cooler is powered by your laptop's USB port and cools the laptop. Since the notebook is running at a lower temperature, its fans can run slower and therefore quieter. The shape of the ZM-NC1000 has been designed to be as comfortable as possible for extended use.
I was really impressed with the quality of the packaging. I was under the impression I was leaving the store with a nice 19" LCD panel rather than a $50 notebook cooler. The box is sturdy and very appealing with tons of marketing information.
First impression
The build quality, as with other Zalman products I have owned, is amazing. The cooler feels really solid and the aluminum top is perfect. It features a high quality 3mm thick aluminum panel that's treated with D.S.A surface processing (Diamond Cutting, Sand Blasting, Anodizing). As soon as you open the package and see the product you'll know you have made a good buy.
Installation and setup is pretty straightforward. You put it on a table, use the included USB cable (A-A type) to get juice from your laptop's USB port, and voila, setup is over! Just switch the cooler to ON and adjust desired flow of air with the knob.
One thing you'll notice right away is that this cooler is indeed silent. When set to medium flow, which is the recommended level, you can barely hear it. I'd say it's quieter than the regular CPU fan I have on my Sager 5760 laptop. When the cooler is set to full throttle you can hear it, but it's only just a bit louder than the CPU fan.
I have a Sager 5760 17" screen laptop that's just slightly wider than the cooler itself, but the feet of the laptop to happily fit on the surface of the cooler. The measurements of the Zalman cooler are as follows: 308mm X 330mm X 40mm (length x width x height) (12.1 in x 13 in x 1.57 in). Just make sure to measure up your notebook to be sure it will fit. If it's 15.4" or smaller then there will be no problems.
As soon as you turn the cooler on you can feel a flow of air through all the vent holes on the coolers surface. The flow is not directed to one spot under the surface, it's all over, so you can be certain all intake vents on your laptop will get this airflow. The aluminum feels cold to the touch and this coolness is carried by the air pushed into the notebook, so cooling is effective and helps to prevent the notebook fans from kicking in quite as much.
- Incredible build quality
- Low noise
- Adjustable fan speeds
- Included USB hub
- Noticeable performance gains for laptop when gaming
- Increased height of the laptop
The laptop cooler can be found at online retailers such as PCExtreme.com for around $55 in the U.S. or $80 in Canada.

Divorced and separated parents can follow a basic parenting plan and custody agreement template to help them make a parenting agreement for their children. Once parents know the template, they can customize the plan so it fits their situation. Here is a template for parents to consider as they make a custody agreement.
The first issue that parents need to decide for their plan is where the children will live. This is a complicated issue, and there is no clear cut right or wrong answer. To decide this, the mother and father need to realistically look at their situation and the needs of the child and decide which home would be better for the child.
Once the mother and father have determined where the child will live, they can work out the rest of the custody and visitation schedule. At the end of making the schedule, the parents should know where the child will be every day of the year. If the parents are unsure about the schedule, they can make a temporary schedule and see how it works out. Then they can make some changes before accepting a permanent schedule.
The next part of the parenting plan template is about the child's medical care. The mother and father need to have a plan for how they will provide medical, dental, and vision care for the child. Thus, the parents should discuss how they will provide their child will insurance, and how they will choose a family practioner. They should also discuss how they will make decisions regarding care for the child.
The custody agreement template should cover how the parents plan to interact with each other. Many agreements include provisions about how the parents will communicate and resolve disputes. A mother and father can also put a provision in the agreement that bans disparaging remarks about the other parent in front of the child.
Other issues to decide for a good parenting plan are: holidays, the child's education, and making decisions. All of these are important for the parents to figure out. The more parents can plan ahead and include the plans in the custody agreement, the better the custody arrangements will work out. So, by following this parenting plan template , a mother and father can have confidence that they have a good plan for their child. This will help the child adjust to the divorce and separation, and it will also help the parents raise the child.

striped pillow cover | pineapple jar | basket | throw | candle | rug | wooden box
Hey there! There is no question that I'm a lover a white and neutrals year round, but something about January that makes me especially fond of them. I think it's the fresh start of the new year that I relate to the fresh, clean, crisp feeling they bring. I love using white in layers and textures to add a cozy feel to a space. So above I gathered a few of my favorite winter whites and neutrals for the home that are budget friendly.
And ya'll, I've already ordered me a pair these striped 20x20 pillow covers in the gray because they are only $5.99! I actually bought a similar version from H&M a couple of years ago (see pic below) in charcoal with a thinner stripe and they are still on my couch today. I have swapped them out, but they are back for now as you can see below.
And I also ordered this rug/runner for $25! I need something for my kitchen and I love not only the price, but the fact that it's machine washable and has a non-slip backing. I always struggle with a kitchen runner, because it has to be machine washable for us...we are way too messy in there :) Anxious to get it! It's also a possibility for my laundry room too, if I don't like it in the kitchen. And if I do like it, I might order another one as back up when the first one is worn out since the price is so good.
As much as I'm not a fan of cold weather, I hope to enjoy the rest of winter a bit more by cozying up with some of these white and neutral home accessories.
Have a great day!

Favorite Finds | 16 | Nick Fraser
Wednesday, January 9, 2013
I am off to a bit of a late start this morning. It's 8 am right now and it is still so dark outside. It just did not feel like it was time to get out of bed this morning this morning at all. In fact when I looked at the clock in my pitch black room and it said 7 am, I was convinced it was a mistake and decided to go back to sleep for a bit. Too dark! Too rainy! I am ready for spring.
I recently came across the work of Nick Fraser and when I did I knew I had to share. I absolutely love his industrial inspired designs with the modern lines and a playful spirit that comes across in each of his pieces. Personally I could easily go for one of the faceted pendant lights and planters. I also quite like the coat racks and candelabras made out of pipes and brass fittings. While I probably don't have the environment (or budget) to showcase any of these works in my home, I can definitely imagine some of these pieces looking really spectacular in an urban loft.

Playful is a perfect description...there's a lightness to them too, when sometimes industrial things can seem so heavy. I'd totally go for a coat rack too!ReplyDelete
Everything is so creative and happy! Those lamps remind me of the beautiful origami lamps from Moth :)ReplyDelete

What cool designs!ReplyDelete
Isn't That Charming.
Those clocks are so cool!ReplyDelete
What a great inspiration for our new place!ReplyDelete
Really cool stuff.
I'm really into using pipes as bookshelves, I'm sure you've seen millions of them on Pinterest. Black steel pipes with wooden shelves, they're absolutely stunning. Very industrial, just like these goodies! I like those light fixtures the most, I think.ReplyDelete

Return of the native
by Tabish Khair
Pankaj Mishra's new book, From the Ruins of Empire, which challenges Western narratives of the 'white man's burden', has been raising hackles in the West and in India. Such reactions are pointers to an existing imbalance in cultural and political power, he tells Tabish Khair. Excerpts from a conversation.
Pankaj Mishra is not a stranger to controversy, but his new book, From the Ruins of Empire, has been met with a barrage of criticism, implicit and explicit, from not just right-wing circles in the West but also from some British authors who cannot be described as right wing. Of course, there have been very positive reviews too: Piers Brendon's review in the Literary Review states that the book "incisively anatomizes what Orwell called the 'slimy humbug' of the white man's burden". In another review, John Gray bestows unstinted praise on the book as "an assault on false consciousness and self-deception in both east and west". On the other hand, right-wing and conservative reviewers have attacked the book for being a 'polemic' and not seeing the (mostly) 'good sides' of the British Empire. One complex example of this reaction was provided by the historian Dominic Sandbrook, who reviewed it for the Sunday Times: Sandbrook is known for his belief that the British Empire was a 'beacon for tolerance, decency, and the rule of law'. More interestingly, the British novelist, Philip Hensher, who cannot be considered politically right-wing, was also evidently upset by the book: in the Spectator, he dubbed it 'disappointingly blinkered'. Among other things, Hensher critiqued Mishra's account of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre for underplaying British fair-handedness (because, after all, the British officer in charge "was suspended") and accused him of being soft on Chairman Mao.
In your new book, From the Ruins of Empire, you discuss people like Al Afghani, who are considered by many to be the intellectual progenitors of today's Islamism. How can you justify that?
I think there is no reason for us to bring to Islamism or political Islam the fear and ignorance of Western commentators and their hysterical vocabulary. Islamism itself is such a broad and nearly meaningless word as used by the mainstream Western press, including everything from Turkey's AKP party to al Qaeda. Al-Afghani was a very complex figure, who manifested many political tendencies — from pan-Islamism to Hindu-Muslim unity — we saw later in South Asia and West Asia. And his disciples ranged from Saad Zaghlul, the Egyptian nationalist, James Sanua, the Jewish playwright, to Rashid Rida, the inspiration for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. My book shows, too, how overtly Islamic movements grew under the lash of European imperialism, which made the more liberal and secular forms of anti-colonial nationalism look impotent.
But then, can't this also be said of what is now known as Hindutva in India as a broad movement with similar 19th century roots?
Up to a point, but then we can't claim Aurobindo, who I quote at some length in my book, as the predecessor of Praveen Togadia. There is a huge difference between the anti-colonial nationalism of 19th century Hindu activists and thinkers and the business-friendly Chief Minister of Gujarat who desperately wants a visa to the U.S. I think there is a serious problem with the history of ideas, which I have tried to avoid, when it starts connecting apparently similar movements and ideologies without regard to specific political contexts.
I am struck by the responses to your book in the British right-wing press, all of which describe you as a mere 'polemicist'. They also see your book as a response to Niall Ferguson, though obviously you conceived and wrote it long before your piece on him appeared.
I am actually relieved to see these kinds of responses, because they accurately reflect the GREAT imbalance of power in the intellectual as well as political realm — what the Asian voices in my book describe and protest against. For a long time, Western histories simply suppressed non-western perspectives — nobody cared what the 'native' thought. But even today, the benignly universalist West creates the standards of judgement, and the historian at the imperial metropole of course writes the truly objective and coolly rational history. And the non-westerner challenging it with other perspectives is prone to be described — and discredited — as no more than a polemicist (The word is usual preceded by a damning adjective like 'left-wing' and 'angry'). In this 'universalist' and 'cosmopolitan' perspective from the West, the parochial-minded native always responds and reacts, he doesn't initiate anything or have original thoughts, let alone a history, of his own. But, you know, it is getting too late for this kind of ideological trickery.
Which brings us to your famous differences with Niall Ferguson and the clash of civilisations thesis…
I think subsuming political and economic conflicts into some grand 'clash of civilisations' theory or 'the west versus the rest' binary is a particularly insidious form of ideological deception. By loudly invoking religion and culture and race, these Western pundits want to prevent us from examining the material basis of global inequality in all matters, intellectual as well as economic — the long history behind the fact that some countries are rich, many others permanently poor; why some forms of large-scale violence, such as neo-imperialism, enjoy moral sanction and respectability, and those opposed to them prone to be dismissed as left-wing crackpots and losers. I think the neo-imperialists and their sympathisers are best seen as a symptom of Anglo-America's bizarre political culture of the previous two decades — a culture in which politicians supported by an unquestioning corporate media wage genocidal wars while feeding lies to their electorates, crooked bankers give themselves huge salaries and bonuses, and intellectuals — well, many of them turn to justifying and vindicating this shameful state of affairs and are given bully pulpits for this purpose at mainstream institutions like Harvard and the BBC.
That might explain why you have many harsh critics in Western circles. But why is it that you also seem to raise hackles in some Indian circles?
I am hardly the only writer to be attacked. Anyone questioning delusionary narratives such as 'India Rising' is likely to be denounced as a bitter JNU jholawalla, and critiques of the appalling human rights situation in Kashmir gets you stigmatised as an 'India-hater'. Our journalistic and intellectual culture in two decades of economic liberalisation has manifested a growing intolerance for real dissent and a deference to power and wealth — and a pathetic desperation to stand with and be counted among the apparent winners of history. In that sense, we have closely followed recent trends in the West, though we also seem to have replicated in India some of the intellectual pathologies that Tagore witnessed in the 'rising' nation-state of Japan.
You often take a combative political stand, but you have also written a book that is partly a biography of Buddha, An End to Suffering. Why Buddha?
He struck me as a very profound thinker, perhaps the greatest the subcontinent has produced, someone who stood well out of the mainstream of classical Indian thought, and was also astonishingly modern in his diagnosis of the human condition. He was particularly trenchant about the concept of the self-directed, self-seeking autonomous individual — something that in our own era has been the basis of social and political and economic models that we associate with Western modernity and which have now been exported across the world.
You have written on a number of socio-historical and political issues, but have not published any novel after The Romantics, your first. Is it a lack of faith in the genre or is it that novels are more difficult to write?
I started out as a novelist and wrote several novels before deciding to publish one and I fully intend to go back to the form. And, yes, the novel in its more conventional form can seem inadequate today. But the truth is that no compelling idea for a novel suggested itself to me after The Romantics. I didn't want to do the same kind of book again and the experiences I was having seemed a better fit for other literary genres, the travel essay, reportage, reflective memoir, intellectual biography, historical essay. The difficulty is that I am now a very different person and writer than I was when I published The Romantics, and the novel I write now would have to reflect that, or it will bore me to tears, not to mention the reader.
Tabish Khair's new novel How to Fight Islamist Terror from the Missionary Position was published earlier this year.

As I have been a mother to my children,
I've been mothering myself.
As they grow and change and change again,
I'm changing shape as well.
There have been times that I've resisted,
That I've fought against the flow.
There were times that I could not hang on,
Times that I could not let go…
Through all of this exploring,
And the challenges and growth,
I've felt I was missing something
To help with keeping me afloat.
As I have found my inner child
And all the fears she keeps
I've done my best to tend to her
Healing whatever I could reach.
But even making space for her,
And trying to bridge that gap
Left me feeling a little stuck,
Like I was still holding something back.
And I guess that the time must have been right,
Maybe I could not have done it before,
But something has clicked into place
And now I see what I've been yearning for.
It is well and good to help that child
Living deep inside of me,
But to my surprise I've found, instead,
It is she who is saving me!
For as I became an adult,
And as I had my own kids too,
I left behind something important,
That's kept me from living my truth.
All the striving to comfort and soothe myself,
And to be the best parent I can,
I had forgotten how to play! Have fun!
To be wild, full of wonder, joy in hand!
Now I see the secret ingredient here
To the mix that I've struggled to brew
I need to remember to do what I love
And to love what I have to do, too.
All the roles that I play these days,
All the different aspects I can be,
They all jumble together in a beautiful mess
When I remember to be wild, and playful and me.

Welcome to the Formation and Ministry Faculty and Staff home page. For additional information on the Formation and Ministry Faculty and Staff Program, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com. For a complete faculty and staff contact list, please visit our Contact Info page.
A program designed to provide on-going formation in Ignatian Spirituality in order to facilitate ownership of the Ignatian vision both personally and professionally.
"We offer Ignatian spirituality as a specific gift to animate the ministry of the laity. This apostolic spirituality respects the unique spirituality of the individual, and adapts itself to present needs; it helps persons to discern their call 'in all things to love and serve God.'"
The First Year
The goal of the first year adult program is to introduce you to the following areas of Jesuit spirituality and Ignatian formation:
"The goal of our life is to live with God forever…" -- Ignatius of Loyola
The Second Year
The goal of the second year adult program is to complete the Ignatian foundation begun in the first year, including work in the following key Jesuit areas:
The Third Year
The goal of the third year adult program is to invite all faculty and staff to experience the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius. Building on the foundation of your first two years, you will be paired with a spiritual director for the nine-month spiritual journey. The key component this year is the 19th Annotation Retreat, a form of the Spiritual Exercises in everyday life. For some faculty and staff for whom the third year is not the optimal time to undertake this retreat with its significant commitment, this year will be preparation for making the Spiritual Exercises in the fourth year. These faculty and staff will spend the third year practicing prayer habits, including the daily Examen, and meeting with a spiritual director each month.
"By accepting the invitation of St. Ignatius of Loyola to labor beneath the banner of Christ for the good of others, Jesuit schools effectively promote Jesus Christ's justice and love for all people." --Jesuit Conference, 2000
The Fourth Year
The goal of the fourth year adult program is to provide an opportunity for reflection on the whole Ignatian formation experience of the first three years, especially the experience of the Spiritual Exercises, and allowing the fruits of the Exercises to unfold and be integrated into your life. You will individually choose how you will respond to the call of companionship with Christ invited in the Exercises, both personally and professionally, by making a plan for prayer and action for the fourth year. Some possibilities include meeting with a spiritual director regularly; going on a retreat; regularly meeting with a small prayer group; developing an Ignatian capstone project, a cumulative project that somehow contributes to the Jesuit mission of the school; engaging in service opportunities with your students, athletes, or on your own; leading a student retreat; integrating prayer more intentionally into the classroom or coaching; and reading and discussing a book about Ignatian spirituality with a book partner or group.
If you have any questions about the SICP Ignatian Formation Program, please call Chuck Thompson at Ext. 594 or e-mail at email@example.com.

Danger always surrounds motorcycles. Especially when sixteen feet of steel in the shape of a globe also surrounds the motorcycle. Make that eight motorcycles—going at speeds of up to 65 mph.
But for the Torres family, stars of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey show, DRAGONS, zipping around the Globe of Steel is an everyday routine. Though they've been performing the act for 15 years, this is the first time they've attempted eight motorcycles. The death-defying feat is a world record for the five Torres brothers and three cousins (seven men, one woman).
In order to pull off the stunt and live to tell about it, the Torres' use a system of whistle blowing and engine revs to cue each rider for his or her set pattern inside the globe. Aside from the obvious threat of collision, there's also the risk of a bike chain snapping, a cable's clutch breaking, and a bike choking.
The thrill and their passion for the sport, of course, outweigh the risks.
"We feel a rush of adrenaline mixed with the aroma of gasoline," says Jose Angel. "And to be honest with you, there is no better feeling than just that."
The few broken bones and bruises they've endured along the way, he says, "All come with the job."
The Torres family hails from Paraguay, where they competed in motorcross events before discovering the sphere of steel that would become their livelihood. That epiphany came when the circus visited town and presented "El Globo de la Muerte"—the Globe of Death.
"We were already fascinated by the name," Jose Angel recalls. "There were two bikes and they were awesome. The adrenaline, the speed, the maneuvers. We felt that we were part of the show already."
They met the performing duo after the show, who invited them to give the globe a shot.
"We thought it was easy, but we realized it was not," Jose Angel says. "It took us several months to just take off because the reaction of the bike is way different inside the globe. We had to learn how to shift, how to use the clutch, how to use the back and front brakes."
Within a year they perfected the act and were invited to perform in various Latin circuses. Now, having taken the art to a new level with eight riders, they're ready to push it even further.
"We will try nine and we would actually love to try it now!" Jose Angel says.
What's one more motorcycle? And who's the lucky member of the Torres family who gets to ride it?

Real Racing 2 Review
- Publisher: Electronic Arts
- Genre: Racing
- Released: 16 Dec, 2010
- Size: 1.0 GB
- Price: $4.99
- Smooth steering control with casual and pro control settings.
- Varied career mode with lots of unlockable content.
- 16 player online racing with automatching.
- Outstanding environments and detailed vehicle visuals.
- No warnings for accidentally locking out races when selling a vehicle.
- Vehicle collisions err towards 'Arcade' rather than 'Realistic' damage.
Real Racing 2 is a class act, with driving controls that feel smooth; an online multiplayer that gives players to chance to really test their skills; and a career mode that will keep you driving for hours - an easy to recommend title.
- Full Review
- App Store Info
While I could go on about the amazing visuals, the licensed vehicles and the clever career system of Real Racing 2 by Firemint, the thing that stands out the most is the online multiplayer. Pitching in to a race with 15 other players can be exhilarating and outside of the occasional disconnected player it's a frantic environment to test out your skills.
The controls for Real Racing 2 are highly customizable, with options varying between tilt and touch based steering; automatic and manual braking - along with adjustable thresholds; automatic and manual acceleration; and steering adjust controls. Flipping most of these to automatic will provide casual gamers with a simple to learn and play arcade experience, while flicking them off will give fans of sim-racers a challenging ride to master. The steering correction is noticeable, though not entirely intrusive as it attempts to compensate for players swerving back and forth trying to stay straight.
The career mode is where you will spend most of your time, at least initially, as you push up your fame rating and earn cash rewards to purchase new vehicles and upgrades to get those pivotal pole positions. Each career mode features several gameplay modes, from head to head competitions in pre-determined vehicles to full championship races and time trials. This in turn will unlock maps for online play and vehicles you currently own in your garage can be used for these massive races. Unfortunately player-matching can result in players being matched with someone using a vehicle in a completely different league to the majority, however it does a good job of attempting to provide a competitive field.
Much like the original the visuals are simply stunning and getting the opportunity to race some of the world's best vehicles (with reckless abandon) around these beautiful tracks is an opportunity not to be missed all on its own. Real Racing 2 is the perfect pocket companion for fans of racing titles and a definite must grab if only for the massive online gameplay.

Thanks for playing!
Price dropped to 4.99 , definitely have to grab it now!
Im pretty disapointed with this game, personally I think the first one is better.
why do you think the first one is better? it feels like the same kind of gameplay, only it looks better. I've got the assists turned off and drifting around corners is quite fun. in my opinion it's the best racing game available for the iPhone/ipod touch devices. it's a high price tag though, so I could see why it doesn't impress as much as when the first game came out.
This game is compatible with the iPod Touch 2g?, that looks very real
Well at itunes its says its compatible with all ipods and iphones. Also I'm pretty sure the reason the textures in this videos are so smooth is because of retina display of the iphone. You won't be having the same affect on the ipod touch.
ok, thanks for your response, I will buy as soon as possible
yes it does , I have it on my itouch ......

Calder '76 made it 12 goals in two games with a 7-1 thrashing of bottom club Elland United in the Premier Division of the Halifax AFL last Saturday.
They were always in control after scoring twice in the opening 10 minutes against late-arriving opponents.
Jonny Gibson opened the scoring after Remi Allen's shot had been saved and Gibson combined superbly with Max Crossley, who fired in the second.
Elland matched their hosts for the rest of the half, which produced no further goals.
Manager Rob Kenworthy made minor adjustments to Calder's formation at the break and the hosts cut loose.
Gibson extended the lead and Elland put a penalty wide before Steve Jones, Gibson, James Redmond and Crossley took Calder clear.
Elland's Martin Boon dashed home hopes of a clean sheet with a great late strike.
Calder could have Sam Taylor back at home to Northowram on Saturday.
Title hopefuls Midgley United suffered a damaging 2-1 home defeat by Ryburn United while Hebden Royd RS were without a game.
Calder '76 Reserves drew 1-1 away to Volunteer Arms in Division One. Their goal came from Gav Martin, who failed to score from the penalty spot but headed in the rebound.
Midgley United Reserves trailed 3-0 at half time away to Salem and 16-year-old Jake Shaw's two second half goals weren't quite enough.
Booth CC cricketer Robert Laycock struck twice for Hebden Royd Red Star Reserves, who took their chances better than Salem Reserves in a 3-0 win in Division Two. Keir Watkinson scored their opener.
