With growing confidence, a simpler schedule and a world championship to be contested at home, there's a lot for the burgeoning Canadian luge team to look forward to this year.
The national team is back in town this week for preseason training and selection races on the ice at the Whistler Sliding Centre, where the 2013 FIL World Luge Championships will be held in February.
And with each winter that passes since the 2010 Olympics, the track on Blackcomb Mountain feels more and more like home for the Canadian sliders.
"It feels like the home track now," said men's team veteran Sam Edney, 28, on an off day at the track Monday (Oct. 15). "We started in Calgary, but for me, once I get to Whistler, I feel like this the track I want to be training on all the time.
"It feels like the season officially starts once you get to Whistler."
The Canadians have quickly gone from afterthoughts to contenders over the past two seasons, and team members credit at least some of their success to having the world's fastest track available as a training base.
"I think Whistler serves us very well when we travel overseas because it's demanding, challenging and fast," said Alex Gough. "(Other tracks) feel comparatively slow and it gives us the opportunity to better adapt to those tracks."
Gough is leading the charge of Canadian success, heading up a strong women's crew that has started to rack up top-10 finishes with consistency.
The 25-year-old has two World Cup wins in the past two seasons, won a bronze at the 2011 world championships and placed fifth in the women's World Cup standings last season despite skipping one race.
"It starts to get exciting at this point, less than two years away from the next Olympics," said Gough.
Calgary's Arianne Jones came close to her first podium last season while up-and-comers like Kim McRae and Dayna Clay had their first top-10 results for the quickly-improving women's team. McRae said seeing some of the veteran sliders achieve success has been inspiring for the rest of the national team.
"It helps a ton," said McRae, 20. "It gives you that boost to keep going and follow them."
Another example of the strides Canada has made in luge over the past couple of seasons can be seen in their strong team relay performances. Gough, Edney and the doubles duo of Justin Snith and Tristan Walker finished second in the season standings in the new three-leg event. They also won bronze at the world championships last winter.
"When we look back on the season, instead of saying, 'It would have been nice to do this or that,' we're looking back on a lot of successes that I think we're very proud of, but also that we can build on," said Edney, who had a career-best fifth place finish at the World Cup race in Whistler last winter. "We haven't reached a level where we're satisfied. I think, more so, we're looking at what we can still achieve."
Last year's World Cup schedule was a grind for the Canadians, as the entire post-Christmas calendar took place in Europe. This year, the team will get a chance to come home in late December before heading back across the Atlantic.
During that trip home, the team will be back in Whistler to test out the new start ramps under construction in time for the world championships.
"I think it'll be really beneficial," said Gough, who said the women's 'Olympic' start used since the Games puts too much importance on the first few seconds of a run. "It'll be nice to have a start height where you don't have to win or lose the race in the first 30 feet of the track."
While in Whistler, the team is staging a series of three selection races to determine the World Cup team for 2012-13, which includes Sunday's (Oct. 21) national championship races at noon, and the last selection race next Thursday (Oct. 25).
For pre-selected athletes like Gough and Edney, the races are more of a formality and a chance to get back into the racing mindset. For sliders like McRae, there is a little bit more on the line.
"There's five of us girls going for two spots, so it's tight," she said.
The World Cup season is set to kick off Nov. 24 at Igls, Austria.

Miss Me Fleur Boot Stretch Jean 1 1
Nice Looking Jeans I ordered these jeans because I love the back pockets. They only came in extra long, as I found out when I called the store to see if they had any that were shorter. I am normally a size 14/16 so I bought a 33 waist. I was told to wash the jeans before I took them in to get hemmed. I was worried that they would shrink in the waist after I washed them (thats where I carry all my weight at) but they didn't. I took them in to be hemmed and the store (@ Ridgmar Mall) did a great job! I wore them to work the next day and was actually a bit surprised that they even felt a bit baggy in the hips and butt area! Very comfortable but if you like your jeans skin tight don't be afriad to order them in your true size or even a size smaller. July 2, 2013

Glam-mas Face Aging in Style: 'Every Era Builds Character'
Like fine wine, the world's most fearless fashionistas (and well, maybe Queen Elizabeth) only seem to get better — and fiercer — with age. Photographer Ari Seth Cohen, of the popular blog Advanced Style, has beautifully celebrated senior style mavens over the past few years, chronicling their fun, outlandish and glamorous fashion he's spotted on the street.
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Watch the video on TODAY.
"They dress for themselves rather than trying to impress others," Cohen, 30, told TODAY.com of his interest in older — versus younger — ladies' fashion. "I am fascinated by their energy, vitality and determination. They refuse to give up."
Cohen immortalizes his subjects' chic ensembles and candid thoughts on aging in his new book. Here's a sneak peek at some of the fashionable characters he features in "Advanced Style":
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Carol Markel and Richard Cramer: "We are minimal in our living but extravagantly exuberant in our art."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Alice Carey: "You don't want to look crazy. The object is to look a chic as you can — but your average person in the street would never wear this."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books.
Debra Rapaport: "I don't believe in age-appropriate dress; just make your personal statement and feel confident about it. Tomorrow is another day and another look."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Ilona Royce Smithkin: "Feel beautiful inside, and you will be beautiful outside."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Joyce: "Style is about the right jewelry, the right know-how, the right neckline, and above all, the right attitude."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Lubi: "Some might see it as gray hair, age, genetics, stress, etc. I see it differently. I see it as platinum elegance."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Mary: "Sunglasses are better than a facelift. They hide the ravages of time and let you spy."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
Jacquie Tajah Murdock: "I thought I'd be an old lady with a cane who keeps dancing, and it looks like this has come true."
Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen / powerHouse Books
The Idiosyncratic Fashionistas: "Young women, you're gonna be an old woman someday. Don't worry about it, don't sweat it. Don't worry about getting older. Every era builds character."

Guest Author - Amelia Tucker
The spiritual path we all take is a very personal matter. It should be studied, contemplated and explored to find the way that all the pieces will fit together to give the most complete sense of balance to life.
Learning about Wiccan ways can be a difficult journey, wrought with a lot of hocus pocus, misinformation and downright scare tactics. Like any religion, the ideas and history are sacred to us. We don't often offer information freely for a couple of reasons. Sometimes it is a guarded sense of wondering why the questions are being asked. There is a very public and violent history of prosecution for those of us who practice the craft. Being questioned about one's beliefs is not comfortable and can lead to the very misunderstandings that persist among people who are not interested in tolerating anyone not of their religious beliefs. It is common for someone bullying us to say that we can not defend a certain point or we remain speechless because we have no good enough answer. The truth of the matter is that there would BE no answer that could mollify those who are hysterically adamant that it is there way or no way.
Religious belief need not be the idea that someone has to prove choices in order for them to be valid. It is impossible to argue against rabid hatred; There is not common ground available if no one wants to find it.
Finding out more about the Wiccan religion is not a one stop experience. One can not find a single book or website or person to have all the answers. The best thing to do would be to read everything that relates to religion, historical and spiritual. Find books for and against what you think you believe in. Learn everything possible about how a religion came to be. What makes it strong and how its strengths relate to who you are.
There will not be any truth in quick fixes: Do not trust someone who claims they can do a ~spell~ for you to fix things. There are no easy answers for finding your way. YOU have to do the work. YOU have to ask the questions until the answers make sense.
Treat yourself and your religion with honor, respect and dignity.

Thread: How To Increase Your MPG?
I know other forum members will blast me, but don't disable AFM on the engine. AFM does actually increase gas mileage. I don't get why people on here dislike AFM, it is almost imperceptable when the engine switches from V8 to V4. I can hear an exhaust note change with my aftermarket Flowmaster muffler, but that and the DIC is the only way I even know the engine has switched.
A lot of engineers that are a lot smarter than any of us designed AFM, and it works.
On road trips, I routinely got 20-22 MPG in my 2008 Silverado with 20" tires. I only have ~1400 on my 2013 5.3L Silverado, but I am getting ~17 with combo city/hwy driving.
I also do notice better MPG with K&N air filters and less restrictive exhaust.
11-30-2012, 12:42 PM #52I think that the issue is that some members amf systems are not working correctly. They complain of clunky shifting and very noticeable and frequent deactivation/reactivation of cylinders. There is a thread somewhere on this site with a few of those members commenting on their issues. A few have gotten in a new truck (same year/model) at the dealership and say that the amf is completely different then theirs and works seamlessly.

And some people do actually have problems. Just because your truck didn't doesn't mean others don't either. DoD/AFM has been available in various production GM cars and trucks for almost 8 years now. A lot has changed over those 8 years. There have been plenty of documented problems, and many service bulletins and updates, to help deal with them.
Yes it works for most people, but it's by no means perfect.

12-03-2012, 03:04 PM #57For one, it's probably a fair bit better on the Gen IV engines (07+) than on the Gen III engines. Though I have seen several complaints about both. It is probably also significantly less noticeable in the large and heavy trucks than in the cars which weigh half as much, and make more power.
And while I'm sure you do know several people with such 5.3 equipped trucks, I'm also sure it's probably less than 100, and even if not, surely less than the probably 10-15 million (I can't find hard sales numbers, so this is a rough guesstimate, and US-only, so likely a bit low as well) AFM equipped vehicles that have left the assembly line over the last 8 years.

"With kindness comes naďveté. Courage becomes foolhardiness. And dedication has no reward. If you can't accept any of that, you are not fit to be a Magical Girl." Madoka Kaname is an Ordinary Middle School Student with a loving family and a close circle of friends. One day, an enigmatic girl called Homura Akemi transfers into her class, setting off a chain of events that will change Madoka's life as she knows it.In the shadows of the city, a war is being fought between the grotesque Witches and the Magical Girls who fight against them. A small cat-like creature named Kyubey appears before Madoka and offers to grant a single wish in exchange for her services as a Magical Girl. The idealistic Madoka wants to accept so that she can protect innocent people, but Homura—who reveals herself to be a Magical Girl—seems determined to stop Madoka for reasons unknown.Bringing together an all-star staff, Puella Magi Madoka Magica has Studio Shaft animating, Shaft's primary director Akiyuki Shinbo directing, Yuki Kajiura producing the music, Nitro+'s Gen Urobuchi writing and Ume Aoki designing the characters for Shaft's first original series in a decade.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- American Electric Power announced Thursday it was halting plans for one of the nation's most advanced projects to test technology for capturing greenhouse gas emissions from a coal-fired power plant.
Columbus, Ohio-based AEP said it would put on hold indefinitely a $668 million expansion of the carbon capture and storage, or CCS, project at its Mountaineer Power Plant at New Haven in Mason County.
AEP officials cited inaction by Congress and the Obama administration to put in place legal requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, saying without such limits in place it was impossible to finance the project.
The announcement by AEP was widely seen as a huge blow to any efforts to allow coal to be burned while reducing the industry's contribution to global warming.
David Hawkins, director of the climate center at the Natural Resources Defense Council and a major CCS supporter, said the AEP decision was bad news for all concerned.
"While the days are numbered for many coal plants, many others around the world will continue to operate and CCS is essential to cut carbon pollution from those plants," Hawkins said. "The principle blame for this shortsighted decision belongs to the polluter lobbies who killed climate protection legislation in the last Congress and to the legislators who were cowed by those lobbyists."
AEP's decision was initially reported by The New York Times Wednesday night and then formally announced by the utility early Thursday morning.
"We are placing the project on hold until economic and policy conditions create a viable path forward," said Michael G. Morris, the company's chairman and chief executive.
Coal is the nation's largest single source of global-warming pollution, representing about a third of U.S. greenhouse emissions, equal to the combined output of cars, trucks, buses, trains and boats. Scientists have for years recommended swift reductions in carbon dioxide emissions by mid-century to avoid the worst consequences of climate change.
Experts say the key to protecting the coal industry's future is to perfect technologies to capture carbon dioxide from plant emissions and pump those emissions underground. However, CCS has never been deployed on a commercial scale. Critics worry about the expense, safety and a host of technical hurdles, including the huge infrastructure needed to install the equipment on power plants across the world.
At the Mountaineer facility, AEP had already been testing a CCS project it hooked up to a very small stream of carbon dioxide emissions equal to about 20 megawatts of the plant. The newer project was to expand that to cover emissions equal to about 235 megawatts of the 1,300-megawatt plant, or still less than one-fifth of the total emissions.

Health Tip: Drive Safely as You Age
(HealthDay News) -- As we get older, our vision tends to worsen and our reflexes aren't what they used to be.
The American Optometric Association offers these safe-driving suggestions for seniors:
Use extra caution at intersections. Look in all directions to make sure it's safe to proceed. Turn your head often, in case your peripheral vision is affected.
Try to only drive during the day. Stay away from routes that are unfamiliar.
Don't drive wearing glasses with wide frames, which can interfere with vision.
Join a local driving class just for seniors.
Get an annual eye exam.

Anyone who has survived a devastating breakup or divorce can relate to The Last Five Years, a veritable ''he said, she said'' of events that took place over -- you guessed it -- the last five years in the lives of Jamie and Cathy, two bright, cosmopolitan twenty-somethings who deny their roles in what went wrong between them. His depiction of their history is told as the relationship blossoms, while hers is an account in reverse chronology. The premise is simple enough, and in 90 musical minutes, a five-year-old relationship is inspected under the looking glass of Broadway composer/lyricist Jason Robert Brown.
That's what he says: Bush as Jamie (Photo by Christopher O. Banks) |
Alexandria's MetroStage introduces Brown to Washington audiences who may be familiar with his more popular works, including 1995's glorious Songs for a New World or his contributions to the Broadway score of 2003's short-lived Urban Cowboy. Brown also earned a Tony Award in 1999 for his masterful score of Parade, an undervalued production featuring Brent Carver and Carolee Carmello that closed prematurely after only 85 performances. In spite of his lack of commercial success, music theater aficionados hail Brown as a prolific young genius and clamor to sing his material and see rarely-produced versions of his work.
And so audiences may arrive at The Last Five Years with expectations of soaring music and searing lyrics, in the kind of trademark sassy style of Brown, and if that's what they've come to hear, they'll find exactly half of their expectations met. The truth is that as much as you want to swoon over Brown and his remarkable compositions, the music of The Last Five Years -- a lucid and bittersweet blend of ballads and witty solos written in 2001 -- is not as sophisticated as his other, more memorable scores. But Brown's songs are always filled with interesting and intelligent choices, and here each of the roughly fourteen numbers is an unpredictable ride on his merry-go-round of a song cycle.
Jane Pesci-Townsend moves out of the academic realm (she is Chair of the Music Theatre department at Catholic University) and marks her professional directing debut with a no-frills production that balances out like a theatrical seesaw, heavy on music direction and light on critical story-telling mechanics. It's an evening of highs and lows, as the cast of two is joined by music director Howard Breitbart at the piano and four other brilliant musicians who lend heft and heart to Brown's score. But her austere staging never elucidates the plotline and fails to establish time and place, and one of Pesci-Townsend's confounding casting choices adds a final dichotomy of efforts to the already incongruous affair.
That perplexing choice is the casting of Mark Bush as Jamie, the successful New York novelist who marries Cathy, a struggling actress who resents her husband's budding career. Bush is no match for Tracy Lynn Olivera, whose heartbroken Cathy is colored by an emotional depth and clarity that Bush is not yet mature enough to define. His solos are tedious, apologetic numbers delivered with nervous eye-rolling and hokey dance movement, indicating that either he feels embarrassed, humiliated, or bored with the material, or it signals that Bush doesn't trust the music will work well on its own merit.
That same music from Jason Robert Brown catapults Olivera to diva-licious status with her moving renditions of ''See I'm Smiling'' and ''Climbing Uphill.'' Olivera treats her script as just that � a script � more than a wooden concert and less than an operatic melodrama, presenting a multi-dimensional woman who suffers, smiles, and sings through her side of the story.
Though the duo is dressed in a series of uncoordinated, unflattering, and even unfashionable outfits, Olivera's crisp, clear vocals and sharp command of the stage is a relieving antidote to Bush's near-camp interpretation, ultimately saving The Last Five Years from becoming more than just another closed chapter in time.

On the JourneyIn On the Journey, President Alan Cureton periodically shares reflections about education, faith, family, life and University of Northwestern. To share comments with Dr. Cureton about On the Journey you may e-mail email@example.com. November 2013FreedomThe concept of freedom is a bedrock of our republic. We reside in a country that exists under the guiding principle found in the Declaration of Independence that "all men are created equal and are endowed with certain unalienable rights, that among these rights are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Freedom is deeply embedded throughout the pages of U.S. history. Our country celebrates freedom through national holidays as a display of its importance to our country's DNA. Each November, Veterans Day and Thanksgiving serve as reminders that freedom is profoundly interwoven into the tapestry of this nation. It is as natural to its citizens as breathing or walking. People seek it. People desire it. People revere it. People lay down their lives to defend it. More importantly, people come from all over the world for the privilege of living under the blanket of freedom. What is freedom?But what is freedom? And most strategically, as a follower of Christ, how does this concept of freedom intersect with a person's faith? Can faith and freedom be symmetrical? Can true freedom exist without a solid faith foundation? Can one make a strong argument that the concept of freedom originates from a strong faith conviction? As I study and understand Scripture, I believe that faith and freedom are one. And faith plays a significant role in the understanding and promotion of freedom. As an example, when, in faithful obedience, we seek to follow the two greatest commandments, we are creating the opportunity for faith and freedom to flourish. By loving the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength and loving your neighbor as yourself, we will be reflecting the essence of the combination of faith and freedom. Christ said, "Upon these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets." (Matthew 22:40) Where God's love flourishesFaith and freedom thrive when Christ-like (agape) love is at the center. To love our neighbor as ourselves requires us to defend the weak, to speak for those who cannot speak, to feed those who are hungry, to clothe those who are naked, to ensure justice for those who experience injustice, to be merciful to those needing mercy, to protect those who cannot protect themselves, to stop evil when evil is present, to be willing to place ourselves in harm's way so that others will live. When we do these things, God's love flourishes. At Northwestern, we will teach our students that faith and freedom come with responsibilities and obligations. We will teach our students to understand that faith and freedom come with boundaries. We will teach our students that faith and freedom come with a price, a price paid on the Cross. We will teach our students to know true freedom rests in faithful obedience to the One who gives freedom from sin. In this season, I give thanks for the Cross and for our freedom in Christ—the true freedom that everyone seeks. May 8, 2013Becoming a UniversityIt was my privilege today to announce to the Northwestern community that effective July 1, 2013, Northwestern College will become University of Northwestern – St. Paul. Moving forward into the future under a new institution name, it is vital that we remember the most important Name under which we exist, that of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is the very purpose of our existence. As a university, the foundational principles of this institution and commitment to hold fast to our mission speak to our unwavering commitment to provide Christ-centered, biblically based education. Today in chapel we also introduced new language we will be using to tell our story-a new storyline: equipping Christ-centered learners and leaders to invest in others and impact the world. This storyline can be succinctly remembered through four key words: Learn. Lead. Invest. Impact. I know that the full story of Northwestern can only be told when people have the privilege of meeting you, our students, faculty and staff. The storyline we share as we communicate about Northwestern will serve as a bridge to invite people in and to want to know more. Celebrating our coreThis time of transition also provides an opportunity to reflect on our core—what remains the same regardless of what we call ourselves. Below are some thoughts that we are sharing today with you and other members of our community, including alumni, incoming students and donors.
Northwestern has changed its name before in response to God's leading and changing needs. I am excited as we usher in together the next stage of Northwestern. I am prayerful and confident that God has great things in store for the new University of Northwestern – St. Paul. March 2013Finding Joy in Vocation and CallingThe word vocatio is Latin. The root meaning of vocatio is "summons." In its plural form, the meaning becomes "to call." In modern English language, vocatio is known as "vocation" and its dominant use is correctly interpreted as "one's chosen profession or occupation." Historically, the word vocation meant "a divine call to religious life." Combining the historical and contemporary uses of the word, one may conclude, as stated in the most recent edition of Webster's Dictionary, vocatio/vocation has two distinct meanings: religious calling (historic) or occupation (contemporary). Vocation and occupation unitedAt Northwestern, we believe the decision a student will make regarding their life calling or career choice is a spiritual decision combining both the historic and contemporary definitions. Vocation and occupation, as in the original Latin, were never meant to be two separate definitions, but one unified and holistic concept. Because the founders of Northwestern held dearly to religious interpretation of the word "vocation," vocatio has always been a strategic part of our university's seal (along with biblia [modern Latin "Bible"] and ars scientia [roughly translated "arts and sciences""]) as well as a key component of our mission statement. As we seek to educate students using the Word of God as the foundational Truth in understanding all aspects of creation, we simultaneously seek to prepare them for their chosen vocation—a vocation in which they will serve effectively. Finding a sweet spotOur career or calling should not be drudgery, but pure joy! And one of life's greatest joys is when we are in the sweet spot of God's plan. Finding that sweet spot is not always an easy journey (and may take time beyond college), but it is attainable. Early in my professional "vocation" I found my sweet spot. As a member of the student life staff at another college, we were struggling to communicate a clear and cohesive vision about the program, its role, purpose, and function. After listening to varying concerns and comments, I offered my viewpoint of what could be, explaining in detail how certain changes and wording could increase our effectiveness and broaden our impact. Upon building consensus, each member of the staff agreed with the proposed changes and, more importantly, the college president loved it. The plan was formed, implemented, and confirmed. Thirty years later, the model still remains at that institution. Shaping an institution's current and future direction is something I enjoy doing. It is my sweet spot. Being able to assess and identify specific gifts and talents while pursuing them with passion, diligence, and resolve is a delightful and energizing experience. That experience has the potential to broaden and deepen our view of creation and our understanding of how we can, individually and corporately, make a difference in our lives and in the lives of those we serve. So, as a value of importance, we must be prepared to fulfill our vocatio effectively and with excellence. As I say to students frequently, the Lord does not call us to mediocrity. We must seek to give Him our highest and best. No matter what you do in life, as it pertains to your vocatio, my challenge to you is to do it with zeal, joy, excellence, and faithfulness. August 2012 Telling a True StoryA lot of times when we think of marketing, we think of Madison Avenue, slick slogans and even deception. But at its core, good marketing is just telling the story of an organization. This year at Northwestern, we are focusing on some statements that we believe help convey the essence of who we are and what we do. No tricks. No deception. One statement you may see on our website or in ads for Northwestern is "Come for a degree + leave with a clear vision for your life." When I read this I can think of countless stories of this statement becoming a reality for our students. Julianna is one that comes quickly to mind. Julianna's storyShe came from a great family. The foundation was set for her to have a successful collegiate experience. By all indications, she was ready for the rigor and challenges of academic life. But, Julianna Scheumann'05 wanted more than just a degree. Julianna wanted to make a difference, to blaze a new trail, to reflect God's love to a new generation, to grow in her skills and talents so that she could serve with zeal and zest. For Julianna was driven by a sincere and personal desire to impact lives and influence people's hearts and understanding of the true purpose in life. She wanted to do so in an environment that would not only stretch her, but stretch those to whom she served. Throughout her Northwestern experience, Julianna took full advantage of opportunities to mature into a strong leader. Specifically, her role as a resident assistant was an excellent training ground, preparing for her future calling. She used the various concepts and theories about leadership the professors and student life staff members were teaching her to invest in the lives of the residents on her floor. She was not only learning about leadership theory; she was learning to be a leader. Julianna knew she needed to capitalize on the things she learned during her Northwestern experience and assimilate them. She just needed an opportunity, a special opportunity to shape her vision. Fortunately, her professors knew just the right experience. Path to a FulbrightAt the encouragement of her professors, Julianna applied for one of the most prestigious scholarship programs in the U.S., Fulbright Scholarship. Because of her talent, skills, gifts, and abilities coupled with God's grace, she was awarded a Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship Scholarship. The Fulbright program only recognizes the best of our nation's elite graduates. In their evaluation of Julianna, she was one. The year after her graduation from Northwestern, she lived in the country of Taiwan as a teacher, mentoring and loving students by investing in them professionally and personally, all the time reflecting the love and grace of Jesus. Even today you will find Julianna in the classroom of a multi-ethnic school setting here in the U.S., fulfilling her vision and dreams for life. Northwestern is a place where dreams can come true and a vision for life can become reality. Just ask Julianna. It's a place where dreams are refined, shaped, and birthed. It's a place you come to get a degree and leave with a clear vision for your life—and that's a true story. |

In addition to dedicating countless hours of his time putting together ProphetofDoom.net, Craig has also been very generous in helping to compensate me for the work I have been doing on the new web site and creating the audio rendition of the book.
To further compensate me for my efforts, he has offered to let me sell the few boxes of Prophet of Doom that he had set aside for himself when the book was published.
Our readers have very graciously offered as much as $200 on eBay for some of these books, but eBay has now followed the same ignorant path that our media and countries like Canada, England, Australia, etc... have. They have stopped us from selling Prophet of Doom, stating that it is "hateful." We responded by agreeing that it was very hateful, but asked for an exemption since we didn't write those parts - they are simply quotes from Islamic scripture. Surprisingly, eBay did not respond.
Now, PayPal (another eBay company) has given us notice that our account has been suspended until we stop using its services. When asked for the reasons, they stated that we were "racists." We tried to point out that we were the opposite of racists; that much of what we were doing was an effort to make people aware of a doctrine that is bigoted against women, Jews, Christians, people with black skin, and humanity in general. We also asked them to read some of our articles, where we are very explicit about how we are being critical about a doctrine - not a people. That is, Islam is a scourge on all humankind, and Muslims are its most abused victims.
I tried to emphasize that we believe that most Muslims are good people, although these people are by definition bad Muslims. Like many who follow a doctrine, they are ignorant of and/or choose to disregard much of what it asks of its adherents. The problems arise when Muslims actually follow the wretchedness their role-model prophet and god demand of them.
I pointed out that they were acting hypocritically, since they would ban our supposed racism-filled work, but do not ban the sale of Qur'aans at eBay or via PayPal. I also told them that to throw out a label of "racist" without offering any proof, was irresponsible from a corporate perspective. But more importantly, it was morally and ethically wrong.
Not during two phone conversations with PayPal persons, nor in any part of five email exchanges, was PayPal able nor willing to present one line or quote from Prophet of Doom to justify their actions against us and the label of "racist" they cast. In our last exchange, we even asked them to at least take a couple of minutes to read the handful of pages in the Letter to the Reader at the very beginning of Prophet of Doom. If they were concerned with evidence rather than content to take a politically-correct stance without any consideration of its merit nor its repercussions, they would have found this "buried" there deep within the book's first three pages: "I pray that when you have reached the journey's end, you will share my heart for the plight of Muslims. I want nothing more than to free them from Islam." - Craig Winn - Letter to the Reader
And, of course, the very first words of this book - its dedication, reads:
Of course, PayPal acted just as one would expect. Although, they did surprise me when they didn't even feign considering the evidence we presented before passing down their final decision to cast Prophet of Doom on the virtual book-burning bonfire. We received PayPal's last response less than five minutes after sending out our last request for them to read one or two lines of our book before they labeled it as "racist:"
"As previously stated, your PayPal account will not be reinstated until you have fully complied. We have reviewed your PayPal account, and we will not reinstate your PayPal account until you have complied with PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy. We regret any inconvenience or frustration this matter may cause you. This decision is final.
In order to comply with PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy and bring your account into good standing, you will need to:
1) Remove PayPal as a payment option, as well as all references to PayPal, including the PayPal logo and/or shopping cart, from your website(s),
Sincerely,PayPal Acceptable Use Policy Department PayPal, an eBay Company
So, please consider this story and the power eBay / PayPal wields in their censorship the next time you consider doing business with them.
To buy Prophet of Doom:
If you would like a brand new copy of Prophet of Doom, please contact me, the Webmaster at firstname.lastname@example.com. I have been asking for $80 donations for these last few books. And for Canadian orders, an extra $16 covers the added shipping costs, while other International shipments cost about $25 more than US orders. Also, the US Post Office asks for a phone number to call in case there is confusion with non-US shipments. We know that this is a lot to spend on a book, but your help allows me to dedicate more time to the site and there is a limited supply of books.
Thank you all for your support,The Webmaster
P.S. Regarding the limited supply of Prophet of Doom volumes, we are considering putting together another printing of the book. The thought is to break Prophet of Doom into three volumes to make them printable in papaerback (and maybe less daunting to read). We are also looking into how to put together a CD presentation of the audio version of the book.
To help us decide whether or not to invest the tremendous amount of time it takes to get a book printed as well as a non-trivial amount of money, it would help us if you could let us know if you would be interested in purchasing a copy of this new 3-volume set. Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could drop us an email at email@example.com and let us know:
Lastly, we would appreciate if you could help us fix typos, improve our wording, or give us any specific comments about the book. We can then try to get your feedback addressed in the next printing.

More Clips & Interviews
After a surviving a disaster at sea, Viola, in a foreign land, disguises herself as her identical brother, and becomes the go-between for the lovelorn Count Orsino and disinterested Lady Olivia. The disguised Viola soon discovers that Olivia isn't in love with Orsino, she's in love with Viola in disguise! Much comedic confusion ensues, as mistaken identity causes characters to fall in and out of love with other characters who are in and out of disguises, all leading to a Shakespearian happy ending where those who should be in love are, and with the correct people. Starring a phenomenal cast of British actors, including Sir Ben Kingsley (SCHINDLER'S LIST), Helena Bonham Carter (HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX), Nigel Hawthorne (THE MADNESS OF KING GEORGE), Mel Smith (THE PRINCESS BRIDE), Imelda Staunton (HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX), Imogen Stubbs (SENSE AND SENSIBILITY) and Richard E. Grant (THE PLAYER).
In 1553, England's idle rich were anything but idle. With the blessing of the royal family, they plundered the riches of the church, stole the finest farmlands, and generally took all the best things the country had to offer. A cousin to the infamous Henry VII, Lady Jane Grey disapproved of the way her fellow nobles behaved, and disagreed with their religious beliefs. But as a sheltered 16-year-old, there wasn't much she could do about it. Then, through a strange turn of events, Lady Jane Grey was crowned Queen Jane, ruler of all England. Based on the true story of the girl who found herself Queen of England for nine days at age 16, Lady Jane is a historical romance at its bittersweet best. Look for Patrick Stewart as Henry Grey, Duke of Suffolk.
The death of King Henry VIII throws his kingdom into chaos because of succession disputes. His weak son Edward, is on his deathbed. Anxious to keep England true to the Reformation, a scheming minister John Dudley marries off his son, Guildford to Lady Jane Grey, whom he places on the throne after Edward dies. At first hostile to each other, Guildford and Jane fall in love. But they cannot withstand the course of power which will lead to their ultimate downfall.

At the start of the project, placing a receptacle on the wall was easy, just how you normally do it. Now, we I go to place a receptacle, it automatically has it set for "Host: Not Associated" "Elevation: -92'-0"" "Offset: 0'-0""
How did this happen? How do I get it back to hosting according to the level and the default elevation that it normally works on? Extremely frustrating...
This happened directly after loading a face based receptacle family for floor mounted receptacles.
You made sure that your schedule level was the appropriate level, right?
While you are placing an element, you can change the Elevation value under properties before you actually place it. Revit should make the inputted value the new default elevation.
I am having this exact trouble, where I can set the elevationbefore I place the receptacle, but when I go to the next floor up, it tries to place the receptacle on the floor below. As an example, on the first floor (elevation 0'0") I place the device using the 1' 6" default elevation. When I go to do the same on the second floor (elevation 12' 0") the receptacle Default elevation is now -10' 6" and if I place the receptacle I get the warning that none of the placed item are within this view. If I then go back to the first floor, the receptacle I placed on the second is in the corresponding location on the first floor.
You have to 'reset' the default elevation back to the Family's default, which is accomplished by using the Create Similar command.

Linspire 6.0 with Microsoft Technology and Intellectual Property Assurances
Linux distributor Linspire has just released version 6.0 of its commercial operating system.
Linspire 6.0 is based on the free Ubuntu distribution and adds applications, including proprietary software and drivers, through its CNR (Click 'n' Run) software warehouse. In an announcement the vendor states that this is the first commercial version of its product to include Microsoft technology and intellectual property assurances. The free community product, Freespire 2.0, was released in August and contained proprietary programs and drivers. More than two years have passed since the last commercial release. In this time, Linspire has been through many changes, including the migration of the code base to Ubuntu. This change has now been completed in Linspire 6.0.
The Microsoft technologies included in Linspire are Windows Media, True Type fonts, and the Open XML translator. More proprietary software is used for MP3, Java, Flash, and in the ATI, Nvidia and WiFi drivers. Linspire made waves with its harsh criticism of the GPL version 3. The Linspire CEO at the time, Kevin Carmony, published an open letter saying that proprietary drivers were indispensable for a successful Linux operating system. His successor, Larry Kettler, picks up this thread in promoting the latest version: "Linspire 6.0 further bridges the gap between open source and commercial software, combining the best from each into a single easy-to-use, familiar and productive operating system."
In its announcement, Linspire points out that Linspire 6.0 includes "intellectual property assurances" from Microsoft. In June 2007 Linspire joined the ranks of Linux enterprises who concluded a cooperation agreement with Microsoft. Although interoperability between the two operating systems is quoted as the main motivation for the deal, Linspire explicitly refers to the controversial intellectual property assurance clauses in which Microsoft guarantees not to sue Linspire users for infringements against Microsoft patents. The Novell agreement from 2006 contains a similar clause which has been a source of many discussions version since. The Free Software Foundation, FSF, added a so-called "Novell clause" to GPL v3 in response.

Have you ever read Whitley Strieber? He is the author of several best sellers including "2012", "The Omega Point", "Critical Mass", "The Wild" and "The Grays". In the genre of "alien sci-fi", "The Grays" is legendary. Yet I have not read it. I have read the reviews and I know it is considered a thriller that you cannot put down. However I just finished reading "Hybrids" which was indeed a thriller – a page turner – that I could not put down.
I am an avid fan of Steven King and Dean Koontz. I have also just begun reading Ted Dekker and I am greatly enamored of his work. Yet I found "Hybrids" to be a fascinating read. I found it to be a glimpse into the possible future of humankind regardless of the existence of aliens. In "Hybrids" the earth is visited by aliens who share their advance technology with humans. Then the humans and aliens work together to create a "hybrid" that could live on earth beside us as our equal.
Well their experiments don't work and the aliens leave. But they leave behind their technology and a human "mad scientist" who goes on to create such hybrids. His hybrids eventually become so smart and so far advanced beyond humans that they decide to do away with humans and take over the earth. These hybrids are bio-mechanical beings of a variety of sorts. Some are like machines, some are like insects, some are like animals and a few are like humans.
The war that ensues is pretty typical of alien/human wars but the ending of the book is a surprise. I did not see it coming and I was very happy with it. Quite often writers of suspenseful science fiction either lose their nerve or their imagination when they get to the end of their story and it disappoints. Strieber did not disappoint. Because "Hybrids" was such a great read, I will now go and find "The Grays" and see how that reads.
One of the most interesting things I found in reading "Hybrids" is that our future could look like this anyway even if we never were visited by "aliens". The "aliens" may be of our own making as we advance further and further into artificial intelligence. Will we eventually create our own successors? Will we create a bio-mechanical being that is self aware and can reproduce? If so will they be friend or foe?

Edwards Signs National Letter of Intent With Crusaders
Saturday, November 13, 2010 Valparaiso men's basketball head coach Homer Drew announced today that Richie Edwards of Hillsborough [Fla.] C.C. has signed a National Letter of Intent during the early signing period and will join the Crusader program for the 2011-2012 campaign. "We are excited about having Richie join our program next year," said Drew. "He is 6'8" and a very versatile player who led his team in both scoring and rebounding last season. Richie started this season well also, going for 18 points and eight rebounds in his first game of the year." Edwards, who will have two seasons of eligibility left when he joins the Crusaders, was a First Team All-Conference selection for the Hawks as a freshman, averaging better than 16 points and seven rebounds per game. A product of Lakeland H.S., he was named the Lakeland Ledger Player of the Year as a high school senior, leading his squad to the regional finals while posting 17.7 points and 9.5 rebounds per contest. "Richie is a very aggressive player on both ends of the court, and we think he'll be a wonderful fit in our program next year," said Drew. "He also brings some international experience with him, as both of his parents were missionaries in New Zealand before returning to the U.S. to live in Florida." |

Reality Check
Cycling Conditions This trip is classified off-road and graded B/C. Please see the introductory pages of the Cycling Brochure for more important information on classification and grading.
For off-road cycling trips of grade B and above, we strongly recommend that you have some off-road cycling experience: this should include some (gentle) ascents and descents over loose or rutted surfaces.
Normal group size and age
Normally 4 to 16, plus leader. Minimum age 18.
It is possible to extend your trip by visiting Zanzibar. See trip notes and/or talk to our sales team for further information.
Icons explained
The vast majority of Exodus adventures are adult group holidays. Groups are always small in size. We strongly believe that this adherence to small groups means a better experience for all; more time with your guide, less waiting around and a reduced impact on the communities and environments visited.
Each group is generally made up of like-minded travellers - with singles, couples and friends all joining in together.
All these trips are suitable for single travellers, but if you prefer to travel with clients booking individually, please
see our Solo Departures page.
In order to provide a more accurate cycle holiday grading system, where a cycling trip falls between two grades we use an intermediate or split grade, for example Moderate/Challenging. Clearly, conditions may differ from region-to-region or month-to-month and as such the information given on these pages is designed to act as a guide to your cycling holiday only. In all cases you should refer to the Trip Notes for further details.
Cycling: Our cycling holidays come in all shapes and sizes; from gentle self-guided trips in the Veneto, to tackling the High Atlas in Morocco, or exploring the length of Vietnam.
Mixed Activities: Activities may range from the ordinary (for example walking, cycling or whitewater rafting) to the damn right extraordinary (including caving, camel riding or canyoning).
Wildlife: Trips may be wholly wildlife focused, or contain an element of wildlife viewing within a less specific itinerary.
Wilderness: Visit the deserts, jungles, plateaux, tundra and mountains of all seven continents, including Antarctica.
