I am christened but was not brought up going to church. I do class myself as a christian, if asked what religion i am. DH is religious, he has strong faith and believes when you pass away you go to rest in a better place. This seems to bring him and other people i know with faith comfort when having lost someone. I want to believe i really do. I wish i had faith but i just can't without any doubts believe 100%. I love the idea and hope in my heart it is true but i have no way of convincing myself of this. I hate that i always feel this doubt, i tell my young son that people have gone to heavan and i feel like i am telling half truths as i don't fully believe this myself.

I think it can help you deal with loss, but it's complicated.
On one level, death is the ultimate confrontation with meaninglessness, and I think that's where faith helps because faith is - in part - about finding meaning.
But at the same time, everybody - faithful or not - grieves. And faith doesn't take grief away or make it any less hard, although sometimes it helps you find meaning in your grief. Sometimes people of faith make the mistake of thinking that their faith means that they shouldn't or don't have to grieve, and their faith can actually become an obstacle to something they need to do for their own well being.
Maybe it would help you to do some reading on ideas about heaven, and see if you can identify which bits seem helpful to you, and which you would reject? Being less vague about what "fits" for you and why might help you reduce the doubt?

My Dad had a strong faith - but he seems to have lost it completely along with Mum.
He was doing CPR on her for quite a long time when she had her heart attack - and they were trapped by a storm and blocked roads so no medical help could reach them.
My sister and I suspect her asked his God for help and feels that he didn't come. Now he can't forgive him.
He cannot understand why God would take this wonderful woman from him, and from us. It is so very sad to witness.

I was agnostic before my daughter died. Her loss has shattered any beliefs I may have had about a god or heaven (was brought up Catholic). I now consider myself an atheist.
I feel deeply envious of those who have faith and who genuinely believe in a heaven or life after death; they often seem to have a measure of peace about death. I wish I could bring myself to believe that my beautiful daughter still existed somewhere and that I will see her again and get to hold her. But I just don't. I found it incredibly hard to accept this about myself.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:00 PM
OP have you considered taking a leap (of faith ) and asking God in prayer for the gift of faith? It can't hurt, right?

Great post.
When I lost my mum, my faith grew. To some point I think it was because I wanted to believe she wasn't alone. While we grieved for the loss of such a beautiful person, and still do, she is no longer in such awful pain. For me, knowing she is no longer feeling that, helped in a small way. I also have faith that one day we will meet again.

I dont really say i have faith, Im not sure I even believe in God as such but I think there is a heaven or something greater. I guess I feel I have to believe it cos it would hurt to much to think that after our loved ones die they are no longer in any way or form.
I was in yr 4 when i lost my younger sister didnt really know what happened or was happening. I have since lost my lovely grandfather and then my oldest brother committed suicide so therefore i couldnt blame god.
Not even a year after we lost my FIL and then my grandmother and just recently my husbands aunt who was more like my grandmother. And I just dont know about god, after we got the news Sunday morning about our lovely Aunt I turned to my husband and asked him 'why do all the good ones go, why?''.
I do believe there is a heaven and they are all up there partying and enjoying themselves waiting and watching us live until we get to see them again.
It is the only thing I can hold onto at the moment.

My mother has. It gave her a profound sense of comfort and peace when she was facing her own mortality. We (the family) were hysterical with fear, but she was unafraid, the epicentre of calm. Her faith informs every part of her life and she wasn't going to abandon or question it when things turned bad.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:12 PM
I have been a strong Christian for many years.
Since my brother died earlier this year (also a strong Christian) I have experienced very similar issues to what Ange has described. I am grieving, but I also have the assurance of my faith. It doesn't change my grief or the depth of my feelings or loss, but I have a different view on the eternal nature of that loss.
Yes, my faith helps, but yes, it is complicated. If there wasn't the potential for doubt, then it wouldn't be faith.
I think Ange has a good suggestion here. All the best OP.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:20 PM
I have faith in God and both my parents had a strong faith. We lost them both 6 weeks apart- 3 weeks either side of my DD being born. It has been a terribly difficult couple of years. I miss them every day. But both my and their faiths give me comfort. I know that their prayers were answered in the end. I know I will see them again. But that doesn't mean I haven't been angry or hurt by God. I have been and at times I still am-but that is part of the grieving process and also a part of life's lessons. Having faith doesn't lessen the pain and despair of grief, but I guess there are times when I feel God, when I know he is there and carrying me, holding me close to Him. Does it help me understand death-I don't think so. I don't understand it. And I never could imagine how much it hurts. But I guess my faith helps me accept it- that there is a greater plan in play, than just my life and my wants and needs.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:29 PM
My faith was always a bit choppy, I'm a bit of a doubting Thomas and wasn't raised in religion, but I've always felt a "pull" towards the divine. I thought it would bring me comfort in loss, as it had through other trauma in my life. But instead it evaporated somewhat when my Dad died. I just felt overwhelmingly alone, that there was no justice, there was no afterlife, there was only his cold dead body where there should have been MY dad, and if there was a God he was some kind of a*s*hole for coming up with this whole, 'oh well I'll just create you all and set it spinning, set up some rules the sit back and judge you' thing.
My heart just ached so much, I turned to the church and found the content there to be empty, just platitudes designed to make us all feel good about being the right kind of people who will be ok when we die. It disgusted me, it seemed too simplistic, too sure, I just felt in my bones that it was all much more complicated and less comforting than all of that.
I prayed, and prayed, and just felt that no one was listening. I'd always considered myself to have a relationship with the Spirit but instead of feeling the light, I just heard the echosinside my head. The Universe suddenly revealed itself to be so cold and empty and chaotic. I think my anger just closed me off. It hurt too much to try, and try, and pray and pray, and then feel unheard.
There is something in me that is still drawn to my faith, I still feel a rumble and a whisper, but I feel there is no church or spiritual home for me, and I still feel too raw to really try to have a 'relationship' with the Spirit at this time.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:39 PM
I loved reading this:
Would be nice if it was proven right or wrong one day. I love the comments, lol.
I myself do believe the soul goes on and after losing 7 family members in 7 years it gives me comfort. There was one time I was at a special place on a loved family property that I could have sworn my Dad was there with me and my son. Another when my Nana was on her death bed. I felt her presence standing next to me. Weird I know but the feeling was so strong. It was like that feeling you have when you sense someone is looking at you so you turn around to see them there (even though they are making no sound).
There is something in me that is still drawn to my faith, I still feel a rumble and a whisper, but I feel there is no church or spiritual home for me, and I still feel too raw to really try to have a 'relationship' with the Spirit at this time.
I must admit that I don't talk to 'God' like I used to since some of my close family passed. Like if he couldn't stop that then what is the point. However I still take comfort in knowing I am loved. My Mum used to listen to Christian music and sing around the house so happy when I was a kid. She was well involved with the Church. I don't think she will be the same again but I see her gradually getting back some joy in being a Christian.

I have to answer this a little sideways.
I have faith. I believe in G-d. I believe he created the world. I have a religious perspective on the world. I identify with a religion and a culture that has a belief system I tend to fall somewhere on the spectrum for pretty much all the time. (Not always at a particular end or point of it or in keeping with the congregation I was raised in, but somewhere) So in that way, I have faith.
But I don't believe in EVERYTHING about pop-culture views of the afterlife. I don't believe that the minute you die you get a harp and wings and float around seeing if your relatives maintain annual family baking traditions or whatever. That you'll get there and everyone will be as you remember them and you will be you and your childhood dog will necessarily bound up to see you. I don't believe we become angels at all actually.
Sometimes I wish I did. But believing in G-d is not perfect comfort in that regard. Not for me. Having and observing a religion doesn't equal no loss.
I actually, I don't know if this is common, I know a couple religious people (not Christians though, I don't know that it works from a Christian mindset) who don't believe in Heaven. They believe and they honour G-d and they PRAY... and not for an immortal life they think they're going to get in the sky. In some ways I think they're very pure. To them it's a philosophy and a commandment of how to live in life, I was told "its how to be, not what you get."

Christian perspectives vary (when don't they?). I think most Christians semi-consciously accept that Christianity means believing in "going to heaven," where you get to watch over your loved ones and meet up with them someday.
I don't believe that. I don't think Christianity's foundational documents support it. I do believe in eternal life, in a physical (but transformed) body, after a resurrection at the end of this world; but I think the people who are currently dead are more akin to being asleep in God's keeping than being angels.
And I definitely agree with the statement that this whole gig is about how to live, not earning rewards in a later life.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 09:56 PM
Sorry about my whole huge post. I was thinking about it. I think faith helps a little. It helps me a little. It doesn't make everything okay.
And hearing about other peoples' faith that my relatives or whatever are in Heaven doesn't help me at all. "Oh, he's in a better place" does very very little for me. It's a well-meaning thing to say and I don't get mad, that's about it.
On the other hand, it's a good thing I don't run my beliefs by committee, other people have told me everyone I've ever loved who's died is in Hell. And that doesn't really impact my faith either. I guess disbelieving in that is really bedrocked by my faith though, so yes that is an aspect of loss with which my faith helps.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 10:06 PM
It gives me comfort to think my mother is not completely 'gone', even though I only half believe it... I emotionally can't let go of it. I don't know if that makes it a yes to helping me deal with it.
It certainly gives my dad comfort, he feels her still and talks to her, five years after her passing.
On the other hand, her death turned my somewhat Christian cousin into an atheist. I can see his reasoning - I certainly can't believe that everything happens for a reason, or that there's some master plan, or that things will work out for the best, since she died. Everything in our family has just gone downhill since she went. I believe in some sort of spirituality but not a God like in the bible - it doesn't make sense.
I guess it doesn't always work the same for everybody.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 10:11 PM
I don't think my faith has helped with deal with the loss of my darling brother but I still believe I will see him again. I had a strong faith before he died, I believed in my faith because I had no reason not to, or rather I trusted. But that has gone now and the religious traditions I keep now seem very empty. I feel i will never have the same relationship with God again, i still feel so angry amd cheated. I think the other members of my family who were previously very religious feel the same way too. It all seems a bit pointless. However, the one sibling who is an atheist is definitely struggling the most with griving but maybe it's just a coincidence. Reading the other posts has made me so sad. I hope we all find some peace.

No, it really doesn't. People who basically believe in the same God can have very different intuitions about what is holy, or different levels of openness to change, or different approaches to relationship, or sense of purpose. Those kinds of things shape how we construct our understanding of our losses.
I just wanted to say, too - I realise I've been posting quite dryly in this thread. But to all the people who have posted about their losses, I'm sorry for your loss, grief and pain.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 10:16 PM
Item... I'm so sorry. That is my worst nightmare.
Pooks - that was very eloquently put. I totally agree. It's probably what my cousin went through too (he was VERY close to my mum).
To be honest, I cling to some strange experiences and coincidences that occurred around mum's death, as proof that she's not gone. But I'm well aware it's clinging, and not to very much.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 10:23 PM
I consider myself Agnostic. I was raised a Christian but I'm not sure what I believe, I do sincerely hope there is something better waiting for us after this life.
After my atheist younger brother committed suicide earlier this year I struggled so much to come to terms with it (I still am). It saddens me so much that he was in so much pain and in his mind it was going to be all over with nothing but eternal darkness but that was still the better option
I have to believe I will see him again one day. it's what keeps me going.

I don't believe in an afterlife, but I know people live on our memories and stories. I find it comforting to know it's all just the cylce of life and there is no higher being to blame or ask why. I find the idea of an interventionist God leads to much disappointment.
I like the idea that we are all just universal energy residing in human form and afterwards we just become part of that non physical collective energy again.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 10:51 PM
Anyone who is influenced by external sources especially if they are positive will find comfort in such external source when something happens to them that is beyond their control. That's why there are creation myths and religions in this world.

Simple answer 'yes'
i tell my young son that people have gone to heavan and i feel like i am telling half truths as i don't fully believe this myself.
Considering that nowhere in the bible does it mention that u go to heaven when u die that feeling is valid

Myspace Safety: 51 Tips for Teens and Parentsby Kevin M. Farnham
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
MySpace Safety: 51 Tips for Teens and Parents provides teens and parents with a common sense approach for using MySpace.com. The authors provide specific methods to minimize the risk that comes with having a MySpace.com account. Each element of personal information requested by MySpace is analyzed to determine how the data is used. The safety tips describe where information entered into MySpace is displayed, and show how the information might be used by a person with malicious intentions. The book then provides recommendations on the actions a MySpace user should take with respect to the requested information, to minimize risk. The book can also be applied as a user's manual for MySpace.com, since to define areas of risk and appropriate responses for safety the authors investigated and documented all facets and features of the MySpace.com site. The 51 safety tips describe how to: - prepare for opening a MySpace.com account - enter the information required to join MySpace.com - configure profile information tabs - make and respond to MySpace friend requests - manage contacts from the MySpace extended network - eliminate unwanted contact from strangers - avoid profile invasion, spyware, and phishing scams - report inappropriate content and other problems to MySpace.com - close a MySpace.com account The book also includes programming script code that disables some MySpace options that allow strangers to track the actions of teens without the teens having any awareness that this is happening. While the book specifically addresses MySpace.com, its lessons can be applied to any social networking site, to a person's blog, or to other places where a teen may establish an online presence.

Tata Motors, India's largest automobile company, has developed a line-up of world-class buses for the MCV market. The company has recently showcased two new exciting applications for intercity transportation and staff transportation at the SIAM International Bus & Utility Vehicles Show, at Greater Noida. Other new technologies on display included the luxurious Divo Coach, Semi Deluxe Starbus Ultra Contract Bus, the all new Starbus Ultra for school application and an ambulance based on the Tata Venture platform.
The new MCV buses are fully built offerings catering to both AC & Non AC contract and intercity applications. The world-class body has been built as per international standards by Tata Motors Marcopolo, on proven Tata LPO 1618 and LPO 1512 chassis, which are known for its reliability and superior performance. The light weight body improves vehicle performance while still keeping the durability and strength aspect intact due to the superior body building process technology adopted from Marcopolo, Brazil. These buses are built on the improved Ex range on MCV buses which promises superior mileage, best operating economics and enhanced safety standards.
Further, the Front Engine AC Intercity Coach is a hallmark of luxury when it comes to intercity and elite staff transportation. This smart coach offers the advantages of superior body building technology with plush interiors and sleek modern exteriors. With individual AC vents, luxurious push back seats and ample luggage space, it meets all long distance travel requirements.
On the other hand, non-AC Staff Bus is a luxury staff bus designed on the MCV platform to cater to elite staff and tourist transportation. With luxurious push back seats, and features such as wide gangway, flat floor inside saloon, separate driver partition and pleasant interiors, it surely is a treat for the passengers. The two new buses on display will be launched in the market, in a phased manner shortly.

Reason To Hope Carriers Won't Win the War On Netflix 213
from the but-the-skirmishing-will-continue dept.
Sure, one extremely popular destination on the internet is safe, because throngs of angry users will raise a stink. But what about all the small players who get throttled into oblivion before their innovations get a chance to have the kind of army of defensive consumers that Netflix has?
This is an information warfare[1] campaign where the Establishment is trying to make sure they stay there indefinitely, safe from all new comers.

Just saying that a particular path is slow doesn't mean that it's Verizon interfering - it's more likely something else that's causing the problem.
Dude, you're forgetting the talking points of the modern internet crowd. Any and all unexplained slowdown is the result of ill intention by ones ISP. The fact that the network is a broad collection of networks that your ISP has no control over is irrelevant. Congestion at a peering site two networks removed from your ISP? That's Verizon's fault! Google doesn't give Youtube the money to upgrade their infrastructure? Verizon's fault!
Sure, one extremely popular destination on the internet is safe, because throngs of angry users will raise a stink.
Well, I wouldn't say that. For example, P2P was throttled because of its bandwidth consumption... and was rescued by the "user community", even though there was no large corporate interest behind it. But your point is taken: this could represent a huge barrier-to-entry for startups.
Folks, there is a simple solution to all this: pressure the government to classify ISPs as Title II Common Carriers, as they should have in the very beginning. (Corporate lobbying prevented it.)
Make them common carriers, and a huge set of problems essentially goes away overnight. Net Neutrality is built-in. Snooping (including government and corporate snooping) is prohibited. Etc. It may not be perfect, but it's just a vastly better world, all around.
My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income. -- Errol Flynn Any man who has $10,000 left when he dies is a failure. -- Errol Flynn

After over a decade of war in Afghanistan, the United States is still grappling with the problems that plague that country. These problems range from the existence of the Taliban and threats posed by al-Qaeda to a dependent economy whose survival hinges upon assistance from the United States. Multiple and complex problems abound in Afghanistan — multiplex indeed. One cannot help but ask: why hasn't the United States eliminated the Taliban and put an end to the violence that claims the lives of many Afghan civilians and its own troops serving in Afghanistan?

Review of Carlotta Gall's The Wrong Enemy
Remembering Fred Anderson: Writer, Mentor, and Friend
The late Frederick "Fred" Randolph Anderson was a man of deep learning and great heart. His imagination seemed kaleidoscopic. Others surely knew him as an ace lawyer, professor, and environmentalist. I knew him best as a writer, mentor, and friend. When I first met Fred, we talked about books and the writing process for several hours over lunch. He had recently published his first novel, Falling Together, under the name Randolph Anderson. He was eager to follow up with a new novel, Washington. So we discussed the fiction market and the world of literary agents.
A Review of Robert Oprisko's Honor: A Phenomenology
Robert Oprisko's book, Honor: A Phenomenology, while published in 2012, offers a fresh new look on how society is structured (from the individual to the international) through the practice of honor. Oprisko carefully outlines the many facets of the honor processes, clearly defining terms that describe how honor shapes our everyday lives. Common words, such as dignity and shame, take on enough meaning to describe each particular aspect of this complex topic. Oprisko engages a tremendous amount of literature on the subject to bring credibility to his argument, and manages to string the various views together in a way that lends itself to a more or less smooth narrative.
The Monuments Men Reviews: Book and Film
Artistic license can take many forms when applied to historical narrative, and it is my hope that in reading my reviews of the book, The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History, and the film adaptation, The Monuments Men, the reader will get a full picture of the heroic men and women who rescued European art from the Nazis – the Monuments Men, and how they have been portrayed in print and on the silver screen.
Karl Kraus, the Press, and War
Reviewing Jonathan Franzen's book The Kraus Project, the German poet Michael Hoffmann argues that people call the Austrian satirist, Karl Kraus, brilliant, "though it's sometimes said with a there-now-go-away-please undertone." By that Hoffman implies that people all too freely bestow the title of genius on the fin-de-siècle Viennese journalist, because they do not fully comprehend what he is trying to say with his intricate, quotation-drenched, and aphorism-dominated prose. After all, partial comprehension is often a prerequisite for mantled brilliance. If we could comprehend Kraus in his entirety, the title of genius might become superfluous. To many, therefore, to this day, Karl Kraus remains a distant mystery.
Review of The Secret Sentry: The Untold History of the National Security Agency
Thanks in part to US fugitive, Edward J. Snowden, the National Security Agency (NSA) is again in the spotlight. According to the former US intelligence contractor, not only is the NSA eavesdropping on foreign telecommunications, it is also monitoring the electronic communications of Americans. Like Jihadists, foreign leaders, international aid organizations, multi-national corporations and even ordinary citizens are allegedly monitored by America's leading signals intelligence agency. Needless to say, Snowden has brought much unwanted attention on the secretive NSA. Besides complicating the spy agency's work by revealing sensitive espionage methods, Snowden's revelations also forced the Obama administration to introduce measures ending NSA surveillance of close US allies. This is of course not the first time the NSA found itself in the limelight.
Alternative Commemoration of Mao, Review of Mao's Great Famine
In light of the 120th birthday commemoration last year for Mao Zedong, the Chinese Communist Party continues to elevate him to emperor-like status. Indeed, there are over 2,000 statues in Chinese cities commemorating the controversial leader. It might be pertinent for the government and the people of China to scrutinize the actions of the revered figure. Since such scrutiny seems implausible in the one party state, the enlightening work of Frank Dikötter will have to suffice. Although not afforded access to sensitive documents, this has not stopped the Chair Professor of Humanities at the University of Hong Kong (only one of many prestigious accolades) on publishing several books on contemporary China like The Age of Openness: China before Mao (2007). Mao's Great Famine (2010) must be considered his masterpiece because the work compiles a massive variety of statistics, records and other scholarly work on the Great Leap Forward.
A Book for Black History Month: Devil in the Grove
Last year featured a strong slate of Hollywood films on anti-black discrimination in America: 12 Years A Slave, Fruitvale Station, Lee Daniels' The Butler, and 42. Someday soon, theaters will show what will surely be a powerful new entry to this genre; Lionsgate Entertainment has bought the film rights to Gilbert King's Devil in the Grove: Thurgood Marshall, the Groveland Boys, and the Dawn of a New America (2012), winner of the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction. Devil in the Grove narrates the underexposed but dramatic early career of American icon Thurgood Marshall. In the book, the brilliant lawyer and his NAACP colleagues travel to central Florida to defend four black boys from accusations of abduction and rape in the small citrus town of Groveland.
Review of Empire's Ally: Canada and the War in Afghanistan by Klassen and Albo
Americans tend to think of Canadians as politer and more sensible than their southern neighbors, thus the joke: "Why does the Canadian chicken cross the road? To get to the middle." Oh, yes, bit of a muddle there in Afghanistan, but like Dudley Do Right, the Canadians were only trying to develop and tidy up the place. Not in the opinion of Jerome Klassen and a formidable stable of academics, researchers, journalists, and peace activists who see Canada's role in Central Asia less as a series of policy blunders than a coldly calculated strategy of international capital. "Simply put," writes Klassen, "the war in Afghanistan was always linked to the aspirations of empire on a much broader scale."
Tale of a 1940's 'Tiger Mom'
Amy Chua has attracted a lot of Internet heat for her chronicle of her drive for achievement at almost any cost in the child-rearing department in Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mom (famously refusing her daughter bathroom or water breaks until she mastered a tricky piano exercise). Chua recently squirted some gasoline on the fire by revealing that her next book will argue that certain "cultural" (they avoid the words "racial" or "ethnic") groups succeed in the US. The list includes Jews, Cubans, Nigerians, Mormons, Indians, Iranians and Lebanese-Americans and the three traits they share, (the "triple package") are, apparently, "superiority complex, insecurity and impulse control."
Hatfields, McCoys, and the Legend of the American Frontier Warrior
From the nation's birth until the 1960s, American culture mythologized frontiersmen and glorified their violence in books, films, and other media. Two cultural narratives dominated. The first, espoused by historian Frederick Jackson Turner, linked the gradual settlement of the frontier with the rise of a democratic, civilized, industrial American society. Turner declared the frontier closed as of 1890 and warned that economic downturn could result. The second narrative, advocated by statesman and historian Theodore Roosevelt in The Winning of the West, emphasized violence to a greater degree. His ideal frontier was a deadly arena for racial competition and natural selection, where Anglo-Americans tested their spirit, patriotism, and manhood.
Dos Passos, Hemingway, and France
In the 1969 video clip below, a French TV crew interviews my grandfather, American author John Dos Passos, about his life and literature. The clip concerns Dos Passos's earliest memories of his friendship with fellow American writer Ernest Hemingway. Though the writers had initially crossed paths as early as 1918 during ambulance corps duty, they did not socialize at length until the early 1920s.
Review of David Folkenflik's Murdoch's World
The eruption of the News International phone hacking scandal has caused significant problems for Rupert Murdoch and his business empire. It forced him to close his big money spinner, News of the World, and to withdraw his takeover bid for the enormously profitable BSkyB satellite TV broadcaster. More recently, he's had to split the mighty News Corporation into two companies. All of this has spawned a veritable tsunami of Murdoch books, including David Folkenflik's Murdoch's World. It's a well written account of some of the most dramatic events surrounding Murdoch's career and impact.
Review of Maajid Nawaz's, Radical: My Journey Out of Islamist Extremism
Maajid Nawaz subtly reveals much in his seemingly effortlessly titled, Radical: My Journey Out of Islamist Extremism. The word radical, though often used in modern English to mean extreme, actually derives its meaning from the Latin word radix, meaning, "root." Nawaz cleverly employs both meanings—the old and the new—to describe who he once was and who he has now become: a former leader of an Islamist organization who is now on the frontlines of a personal mission to rid Islam of the excessive, politicized ideology he once so firmly believed and forcefully preached.
Review of Clan Cleansing in Somalia by Lidwien Kapteijns
The publication of Clan Cleansing in Somalia: The Ruinous Legacy of 1991 by Lidwien Kapteijns has triggered bitterness among Somalis. The reason is because the author argues that the Hawiye clan aided and abated by the Isaq clan adopted a policy that defined the Darod clan as an enemy targeted for elimination and expulsion from Mogadishu between January 28, 1991 and December, 1992.

Hi everyone,
I've got a MK7 Fiesta Zetec (2009) which needs a new bluetooth module. Just wanted to check what people thought the best way to do this was, as Ford have quoted me £600 on top of the £100 they charged me for 'diagnostics' which seems crazy.
If I buy a second hand module, is it going to work if I plug it straight in? Would really appreciate any feedback.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- The Few and the Proud: Chief Compliance Officers CCOs make significant contributions to success of an RIA, designing and implementing compliance programs that prevent, detect and correct securities law violations. When major compliance problems occur at firms, CCOs will likely receive regulatory consequences.

The safest course of action is for RIAs to retain all communicationsto clients, from clients, and about client accounts. To comply with fiduciary obligations, communications must be thorough and not mislead.

Movie Review
Why the insane need for speed? "Faster" falters
Special to The Seattle Times
Near the beginning of "Faster," a documentary about the professional world of MotoGP, or motorcycle Grand Prix racing, narrator Ewan McGregor makes a statement that needs as much parsing as anything said in this year's presidential election. Explaining why men race motorcycles around tracks at speeds approaching 200 mph, their padded knees scraping the ground, McGregor implies it's not really so dangerous.
"In fact," he says, "since 1960, only one of the 500cc world champions has died on the track." Then he delivers the punch line: That champion was testing a car at the time.
Good, you think. Then you realize: Hey, what about nonchampions? And what about those in the 125cc or 250cc MotoGP class? Later, as you watch shot after shot of MotoGP cyclists crashing and flopping across the ground like so many rag dolls, you realize there are consequences besides death. Being paralyzed for life, for example.
"Faster" is a bland, straightforward documentary about an insane sport. It lets us know that the 500cc MotoGP season runs from April through November, with 16 races on five continents. It intersperses slow-motion shots of men on motorcycles bending around curves with these same men — and engineers and doctors and reporters — talking about the experience.
A kind of plot emerges in the form of a rivalry between two Italian motorcyclists during the 2001 season. This fizzles and a new American rival emerges for the 2002 season, but this fizzles, too. Then the doc fizzles to an end with warnings not to try this at home.
It's too careful. The doc should've embraced its inner-MotoGP. It should've been as nutty as its subject. At the start of the 2002 season, for example, Australian Garry McCoy crashes and a titanium rod is surgically implanted in his leg. He still races, limping to his bike, before crashing again and ending his season.
By the end, we still don't understand McCoy's need for speed. A documentary like Stacy Peralta's "Riding Giants" embraces the insanity and beauty of big-wave surfing and leaves even nonsurfers craving to do something a little crazy. "Faster" documentarian Mark Neale wants to make it all seem so logical when it's not.

Official's View With Wes Adams: Breaking Into Pro Wrestling & WWE (Part 2)
Welcome to part two of my debut column exclusively on PWMania.com. For those that missed part one, you can read it at this link.
I'm given my dates and times for Raw in Lafayette, LA and SmackDown in Mobile, AL. The week before I see my buddy Cassidy Riley wrestle Monty Brown on the ECW show, and the next day hear he got a deal and assigned to OVW! I joked and said that could be me the next week. I show up to Raw and check in. It's such an unreal experience being behind the curtain. I had been to three Raw's before as a spectator, but never in the hallowed halls of "backstage". The extras check in with the talent relations department upon arrival. For this stop, it's me, Jeremy Young, and Adam Evans. There may have been a couple of more but I can't recall.
We really don't get to do much in the way of an in ring workout. I really didn't figure that we would do anything. When Sgt. Slaughter came by and assigned the Sunday Night Heat matches. Young had Val Venis. Evans got Hacksaw Duggan in the dark match. I was talking to Big Viscera about our old Memphis days, and mentioning I had just wrestled Mo a few weeks prior, when he mentioned he had a match but didn't know with who. I laughed and said I would do it, and he laughed too and said yeah that would be cool. A few minutes later, I passed Sarge in the hall and nervously asked if he had anybody assigned to Big Vis. He looked at the sheet then at me and said, "Yeah! You!" Sweet. That's what everybody wants to hear in that situation. I went back out and told Big Vis the good news.
That night I had my first ever WWE match against Big Vis, with Jack Doan as the ref, and Steve Keirn as the agent. I know because I have a notebook of every show I've ever been too and every match I've ever participated in. It aired on the online version of Sunday Night Heat, and was available deep in the archive sections of WWE.com. On the way back from Lafayette, somehow I wound up giving the newly debuted Highlanders a ride back to their hotel. Rory and Robbie are great guys and told me what they looked for in signing new talents.
At the Mobile SmackDown tapings, the same crew was there, along with two new additions, the future Jimmy and Jey Uso, who had just started wrestling. I was pleasantly surprised to see Bill Moody, aka Paul Bearer there, as I hadn't seen him in about a year. He was a big part of my early independent days as well. We did more of an in ring workout that day. Adam and I were pegged to be the sacrificial lambs for Deuce N Domino's second week of television, and worked with them a good bit.
In a hilariously comical moment, another local talent (whose name I can't recall) was slated to work Monty Brown on the ECW show. Sarge said, "What's your name?" The guy responds with his gimmick name. Sarge says he has to use his real name, not his gimmick. So the guy gives him his real name. As Sarge is walking away, the guy stops him and says, "SARGE! Should I wear my overalls, or my TIGHTS???" Sarge looked like someone had just taken a dump in his Frosted Flakes and responded, "Probably your tights." And he left. Sarge is the best. I retold him that story about a month before my release and he laughed so hard, it was amazing. So after going into catering and sitting down to eat, a production guy comes into the catering room shouting, "Who the hell is Wes Adams and where is he!"
I was scared to death, because in the wrestling business, you're always paranoid about doing something wrong, and my first thought was, "I've messed up and I'm being kicked out!" I stand up and say, "Here I am!" The production guy tells me John Laurinitis wants to see me by the ring. Oh snap. I get to the ring and Johnny is there with Dusty Rhodes (who had just come in from TNA) and Monty Brown. I shake their hands and Johnny says, "Change of plans kid, you have Monty Brown tonight!" Say what? Alright cool deal, let's do it. So the match is set, and as I'm walking around the back right before, Tommy Dreamer pulls me aside and says, "Just go in there, do your job, and do the best you can. The kid (Cassidy Riley) who did the favor the week before got hired, so work hard and you never know." I thanked him and went to get ready for the match. I did what I was supposed to do, and afterwards Johnny thanked me and told me to meet him in his office after the show.
I was hoping to get sent in for a tryout for a week, but was stunned by what laid ahead. Johnny asked me how long I had been working, and what I did for a living. After answering his questions, he said he would sign me to a developmental deal…to be a REFEREE. I totally didn't see that coming. I didn't have much time to think about it either, because the man wanted an answer immediately! After talking about the position details, I looked at it as a long term career opportunity to make a living in the wrestling business, which I immediately accepted. Perhaps had Johnny seen me work a competitive match, or heard me cut a promo, he would have considered something else. But he didn't. He saw me, short brown hair, 5'10", 200 lbs and saw a body for his open referee position and gave it to me. He didn't tell me I sucked as a wrestler and would only use me as a referee as the story went on the Mississippi indy scene.
He sent me to Deep South Wrestling, and after Nova helped me with my hiring paperwork, contracts, and moving issues, I started on my way to being a WWE referee! I won't go into a million details on my WWE career and life on the road at this point, I will save those for future columns. But I can honestly say that I feel that I earned my bachelor's degree in wrestling from them. Dr. Tom Prichard, Steve Keirn, Brad Armstrong, Steve Williams, Billy Kidman, and all of the trainers that I worked under didn't treat me as just a referee. They let me wrestle, referee, listen in on booking meetings, and even let me manage a few times on some FCW shows. I paid attention to production meetings, even going to far as to save cards and tv formats just in case I ever needed them.
I was under payroll from January 2007 until the end of my 90 days in November 2008. I saw a lot during that time. From the closing of Deep South, the opening of Florida Championship Wrestling, the Benoit family tragedy, the end of OVW as developmental, to the Signature Pharmacy scandal, those almost two years seemed like twenty. But it also seemed like two months.
I was released in August 2008 after the infamous shoot pin incident on the ECW program, and although I was never given that as an outright reason for my release, it didn't take Einstein to figure out that it was why. During my 90 days, I contemplated two options. Did I want to stay in Florida and try to work independents and try to get on with TNA or move back home to Mississippi and try to promote shows again? With my release also came the release of talent like Big Daddy V, Domino, Cherry, The Highlanders, Colin Delaney, Steven Richards, Nunzio, Shannon Moore, and Trevor Murdoch.
I had already decided that my referee days were over, and didn't think the prospects of getting on with TNA as a wrestler were very good with all of that talent available. So I went back to Mississippi, where with my longtime friends Ryan Jackson and Reggie Matthews, we mapped out a plan to bring top notch wrestling back to Mississippi, under the name Powerslam Productions. We've promoted nearly 50 events since November 2008 with no end in sight. I began taking bookings as a wrestler again, and in January 2012, began working with Luke Hawx's Wildkat Sports out of New Orleans. Things are really picking up down here, and these guys and girls that are working hard deserve to get more exposure.
I am honored that PWMania.com would want me to contribute in any way, shape or form. Since 2001, I have wrestled, refereed, ring announced, booked and promoted shows in the south and have been fortunate to work with and learn from the best, and hopefully will continue to do so until I can't anymore. There's a lot of ground to cover in this world of wrestling and I look forward to giving my thoughts and reviews on it.
Thanks for reading!

Lawrence Park Collegiate spearheaded a strong Toronto showing at the recent Ontario Federation of School Athletic Association (OFSAA) alpine skiing provincial championships, earning four individual medals (two gold, two bronze) and five team medals (one gold, two silver and two bronze).
The OFSAA alpine event features slalom and giant slalom events at two levels (school-trained level one, and the more elite club-trained level two) for both male and female.
Basically, Lawrence Park accomplished the impressive feat of qualifying three of its four teams (level one boys, level one girls and level two boys). And then, even more impressively, it followed up with all three of the teams bringing home OFSAA medals - in fact two of the teams were double medalists.
* The level one girls earned gold in slalom and bronze in giant slalom. Team members are Katie McDonald, Zoe Radden, Maddy MacDonald, Emma Brown and Jackie Pivovarov.
* The level two boys earned double-silver in both events. Team members are Blake Pridham, Alex Jackson, Andrew Shafto, Alex Wijnbergen, and Simon Ashby.
* The level one boys earned bronze in giant slalom (and were seventh in slalom). Team members are Gren Austin, Kevin deHaan, Corey Gorsky, Liam Benstead and Mike Kutti.
To put this in perspective, only one other Toronto school managed to bring back an OFSAA medal, and that was St. Michael's, also from the midtown area, with a silver medal in level one boys giant slalom.
Individually, the highlight was Lawrence Park's Rachel Rennick, a former provincial team member, who won gold in both level two slalom and giant slalom.
Lawrence Park's other medal winners, both with bronze, were:
* Alex Wijnbergen, level two boys, in giant slalom (he was fifth in slalom);
* and Zoe Radden, level one girls, in slalom (she was 8th in giant slalom).
By contrast, there was only one other individual medal winner from Toronto. Alex DeMarchi, of the above noted St. Michael's team, earned a silver medal in giant slalom.
"We had a great OFSAA," agreed Peter Gilbert who coaches the Lawrence Park team with Alex Ivan, adding it was by far the school's best haul since he started coaching the team early on in the decade.
The program is so strong, he said, because "a very high percentage of the school population skis, and then the other aspect of it is, is that a lot of those kids, not only do they ski but they race."
Combined with that, he said, "we've created a climate where the kids are very happy to join the team."
Here's a list of all OFSAA top-10 finishes from Toronto.
Boys giant slalom: 2, Alex DeMarchi, St. Michael's; 7, Keegan McCallum, Richview; 8, Jeremy Antonyshyn, St. Michael's
Boys slalom: 7, Kevin deHaan, Lawrence Park; 9, Ted Zalucky, Bishop Allen Academy

Once your check is received, you are considered registered. You will not receive a registration confirmation, but you will be notified if a class is full or canceled. In the event that a program is canceled, you will receive a refund 30 days after receiving notification of the cancellation.
The Adult Education Program is intended for individuals 18 years of age and older. However, the age threshold may vary as indicated in course descriptions. For example, the defensive driving course is open to children as young as 16 and some courses are restricted to individuals 21 years of age and older. Limited exceptions may also be made at the instructor's discretion.
Children aren't the only ones who benefit from quality local schools. Schalmont schools are open to adults in the community who want to have some healthy fun, learn new skills or creatively express themselves in the areas of:
Most classes are offered at a minimal fee, and several are discounted or free for resident senior citizens. These fees allow the program to be self-sustaining (i.e., classes are not included in the annual school budget).
Have a talent to share with the community? Want to teach a class about it? If so, please contact the Adult Education Office at 355-9200, ext. 4005, or e-mail email@example.com to find out about opportunities to teach future Adult Education courses.
Adult Education courses are cancelled when schools are closed due to inclement weather or other emergencies. When Schalmont is forced to close or delay schools, or dismiss students early due to inclement weather or other emergency conditions, that information is communciated through a variety of tools.
