NOWSPAR Presents at Physical Education Conference in Lusaka
The Ministry of Education of Zambia convened the National Conference of Physical Education Teachers in Lusaka, capital of Zambia 29th – 31st August. The conference hosted key stakeholders in physical education and sport from across the country.
The conference discussed a review of the Physical Education Curriculum of Zambia. In particular, the review process and Examinations, in addition to reporting on activities and developments at provincial level were presented at the conference.
National Organisation for Women in Sport, Physical Activity and Recration, NOWSPAR, among other stakeholders gave a presentation on its contribution to physical education and sport in the country.
A speaker at the conference, NOWSPAR General Secretary Ms. Lombe Mwambwa, highlighted the Advocacy work that NOWSPAR undertakes to implement policy processes, that influence practitioners to take cognizance of gender factors in their work. This includes raising public awareness of women's right to sport, and physical education in addition to supporting communities to develop sport and recreation clubs and areas.
The focus of Ms Mwambwa's presentation was on the Guiding Principles of addressing Gender Based Violence in sport and the progress made in that process. She said: "Physical Education is a right: we have a responsibility to secure this right. One way is to facilitate a safe environment that will support girls' participation, the Guiding Principles on GBV are providing a tool to enable us move from policy intentions to tangible action."
Key discussions covered strategies for reaching rural areas, addressing cultural based barriers such as perceptions of appropriate clothing and women's place in community life.
Considering the high levels of interest demonstrated by the delegates, it was recommended that a longer session to deliberate on gender issues and women's participation in physical education and sport should be included in the next conference.
Other stakeholders at the event who had speakers included the Ministry of Sport, Japaneese International Cooperation (JICA), the Olympic Youth Development Centre, the University of Zambia, Sport in Action and Edusport Foundation.
The conference was attended by over 50 delegates including officials of the ministry of education, senior education standards officers, national executive members of the association, provincial head teachers' association chairpersons and lecturers from colleges of education.
NOWSPAR to Present at 'Creating Change Conference 2011'
NOWSPAR has been invited to present at the Conference on Women and Physical Activity to be held on 2nd November 2011 at the University of Minnesota, USA. The Conference is convened by the Tucker Center for Research on Women and Sport.
The presentation titled 'She Leads: dynamics around the low levels of women's engagement in sport leadership in Zambia' will be presented by Ms. Matilda Lucas and Ms. Lombe Mwambwa. The presentation will focus on the realities of women's engagement in leadership in the sport sphere.
The presentation will be given under one of the Conference themes: Women in Positions of Power.
Other conference themes include Media and Inclusion. The conference will also include poster presentations on various issues including gender verifications, activism, research and sexuality among other topics.
The Conference will be in the form of lectures and discussions and given along thematic groupings.
The Key Note Speaker at the Conference is Dr. Don Sabo, former trustee of the Women's Sports Foundation, who earlier this year participated on a Panel discussion with NOWSPAR Director Ms. Matilda Mwaba, Prof. Kari Fasting and IWG Chair Raija Mattila at the NGO CSW parallel to the UN CSW in New York, which was co-ordinated by Women Sport International and IWG & Women Sport Foundation in February this year.

What was the significance of the letter that Daisy received right before her wedding to Tom?
How does the letter influence the plot?
1 Answer | Add Yours
The letter that Daisy receives before her wedding is from Gatsby; this, in and of itself, makes the letter extremely significant. We do not know the contents of the letter, but Daisy's reaction to it helps us to infer much. Nick has told us that Daisy does not drink, yet after reading this letter, she is rather drunk. She is also asking someone to tell Tom that Daisy has changed her mind – about the marriage. We can only assume that this letter from Gatsby asked Daisy to wait (for him, until the war was over, before marrying Tom; there are numerous possibilities). The letter doesn't just explain the plot of the book; it also enhances the character of Daisy. This letter does help explain how much Gatsby wanted to be with Daisy; therefore, his single-minded goal of attaining Daisy's love makes sense to us. This letter and Daisy's reaction to it help the reader to sympathize with Daisy's character; we gain an understanding that perhaps she doesn't want to be married to Tom. Maybe she is worthy of Gatsby's attention and love.

Meet your Feast Feast food community (above).
Innovations at the table are rebuilding community and creating models for innovation across a wide range of disciplines.
The Feast Conference brings together some of the world's greatest innovators from across industries and society to…
We love sitting around the table with friends, a pint of ice cream and delicious pie. We knew that Sarah Peltier of Woodside Bakehouse and Jables of the Goddamn Cobras were just the people to fill you up with goodness.
Woodside Bakehouse is an organic, vegan bakehouse in Woodside, Queens. All goods are handmade with care using local ingredients when possible, and sustainable practices. They are a small company happy to provide the New York area with healthful and delicious options.
We make videos, eat, travel, write, play music, live & create together. We believe in the power of collectives to teach each other new skills & experience life as a unit. We believe in a better future where people are respected by their countries, governments & peers and respect their surroundings in return. We believe in the power of technology to show our way of life to others, in hopes of inspiring them to reduce their carbon footprints, and take a permanent step toward making the world a better place.
Cobras eat locally, act locally, live locally, and dream globally. Or do we? When the hell are we turning our house into a self sufficient machine? Bike for an hour each morning to power our showers? Bike for an hour each night to power our laptops to watch movies? Where the hell are our glass lanterns & candles for winter nights after 6pm? Where the hell are our solar panels? Why hasn't our backyard been turned into a greenhouse? Why aren't we raising goats?
Cobras eat locally, act locally, live locally, and dream globally.
Or do we? When the hell are we turning our house into a self sufficient machine? Bike for an hour each morning to power our showers? Bike for an hour each night to power our laptops to watch movies? Where the hell are our glass lanterns & candles for winter nights after 6pm? Where the hell are our solar panels? Why hasn't our backyard been turned into a greenhouse? Why aren't we raising goats?
We like to bring a little class wherever we go, so we thought we'd bring a little french fusion into the sustainable innovation scene. Et voila, we present to you, the participation of Chapoutier wines at The Feast Dinner!
Michel Chapoutier is one of the most highly regarded winemakers in France. Since taking over his family firm in 1990 at age 26, Michel Chapoutier has transformed the winery into the leading Rhône Valley producer. He combines the modern and the traditional: crusading for biodynamic winemaking, while expanding operations around the globe and experimenting with cutting edge winemaking techniques.
The Noble Rot will of course be taking us through a taste of these exquisite wines. Come raise your glass with us by registering here: http://thefeastfeast.eventbrite.com/
We like local food, and you can't get more local than the roof above our head. Which is why we're pumped to be sourcing ingredients for The Feast dinner from the beloved folks at Brooklyn Grange:
Brooklyn Grange is a commercial organic farming business located on New York City rooftops. We grow vegetables in the city and sell them to local people and businesses. The goal is to improve access to very good food, to connect city people more closely to farms and food production, and to make urban farming a viable enterprise and livelihood.
Our one-acre (40,000 square foot) farm in Queens is made up of roughly 1.2 million lbs of soil and over 20,000 linear feet of green roofing material.
Although we function as a privately owned and operated enterprise, Brooklyn Grange is community oriented and open to the public. School groups, families and volunteers are welcome to visit, participate and learn. This is a green space that contributes to the overall health and quality of life of the community, bringing people together through green business and around good food.
Our first farm is located at 37-18 Northern Boulevard, in Long Island City Queens. Our goal is to put more farms on roofs throughout New York and beyond, and grow more food, train and employ more farmers, and improve overall quality of life in the city.
Check out this video all about them and come taste it for yourself on October 15th at The Feast Dinner! (You can register here at HTTP://THEFEASTFEAST.EVENTBRITE.COM/ )

We tend to stockpile lots of stuff for big parties and things like disposable dishware has made it all too easy to just throw things away once the fun is over. Obviously, that doesn't just magically go away (not a party for the planet).
Which is why we're super excited to have Sustainable Party stepping in to make sure our party is fun from start, to finish, to compost to start it all over again!
A bit about Sustainable Party:
Sustainable Party is an online resource for biodegradable tableware, eco-friendly party supplies, and tools for greening any event. For the second year in a row, Sustainable Party has partnered with The Feast to make it an almost-zero-waste event. This year, the founders of Sustainable Party are also working with the new Feast Dinner to make it zero-waste. Sustainable Party helps educate the kitchen and maintenance staff as well as dinner participants, making sure all are aware that food and food scraps can be composted rather than landfilled, and that their Sustainable Party biodegradable tableware - made from steamed leaves, corn plastic, and waste sugarcane known as bagasse - can be used as a substitute to disposable, wasteful tableware made all-too-often from toxic and non-renewable sources. The Feast, The Dinner, and Sustainable Party believe that there's a way to go green, and to postively impact the environment and society that we live in, while also encouraging celebration and sparking innovation. The Feast was one of Sustainable Party's first clients - and has helped them spread awareness of the existence of the innovative Sustainable Party biodegradable tableware, and their resources to green events and increase composting - spreading the idea of respecting the environment even during a party - among the tech-savvy and young entrepreneurial crowd.
They'll be providing all the dishware, cups, cutlery for the evening, making The Feast Dinner a near zero waste event — it'll just be up to you to make sure you clean your plate but with all our delicious chefs, we're not too worried about that!
Check em out at: http://sustainableparty.com/ for all your susty party needs!
What's a Feast without libation!? But just like The Feast Conference, we're all about curation, which is why we're thrilled to have The Noble Rot pouring all our amazing wines at The Feast Dinner.
Dubbed by Tasting Table as "a new form of clandestine drinking," The Noble Rot hosts events in unique, often private locations. Re-envisioning the traditional wine tasting as a more approachable experience, guests indulge their curiosity of wine in a convivial social atmosphere. Replete with live entertainment, full-bodied banter, and tannic-laden knowledge, The Noble Rot is: Jonny Cigar, a Self-Appointed Master Sommelier and Brian Quinn, a State-Certified Absolute Gentleman.
Check them out at www.thenoblerot.com and get ready to raise your glasses!
Ok, we realize we're asking you to come out to this dinner, but the reason we love Feasting isn't because it's eating out but because we're bringing together amazing people together over something everyone on this planet shares — good food and great company (trust us, if we could fit you in our living room, we would).
Which is why we're thrilled to have Cathy Erway, Author of "The Art of Eating In" as part of The Feast Feast!
A bit about Cathy:
Cathy Erway is the author of The Art of Eating In: How I Learned to Stop Spending and Love the Stove, based on her two years of survival without restaurants or take-out, and her blog, Not Eating Out in New York. She hosts the weekly podcast, Let's Eat In, on Heritage Radio Network and is a co-founder of the Hungry Filmmakers food documentary screening series. She keeps chickens and grows vegetables on a rooftop in Brooklyn, and writes about cooking communal meals from the garden at Lunch at Sixpoint.
Some link love here:
So come on over and join us for a meal (we'll give you a beer cozy if that'll make it feel more like home).
When we heard Parlay had a "Feast" wine, we flipped and knew we had to have them at The Feast Feast! We know, summer's over, but it's always beautiful to spend a bit of time basking in the afterglow and, most importantly, celebrating.
Who's Parlay?
Parlay Winery produces limited production wines from Northern California's Sonoma County region. Their current releases include a Sauvignon Blanc and two styles of Rosé.
Casey and Kahlil the husband and wife team behind Parlay, are passionate about providing approachable, delicious reasonably priced wines.
Kahlil and Casey currently reside in Fort Greene, Brooklyn and embrace their unique opportunity to bring part of California's homegrown bounty to Brooklyn, the heart of high-quality artisanal cuisine.
"From Sonoma to Brooklyn we have found ourselves enjoying wine on roof decks, great lawns and small boats. So when the chance came to produce our own, we combined our zest for living, artisanal winemaking and some of the finest grapes from Sonoma County to create these tasty wines for you."
-Kahlil and Casey
Their story is one that fits with The Feast as wonderfully as their Rosé does with a summer day. Starting the company after the financial crisis, they chose the name because they wanted to take the opportunity to Parlay their skills and passion into something beautiful and celebratory. We're excited to have them joining us to create an experience as fitting as their namesake.
Parlay is currently available in New York, California and can be purchased on their website www.parlaywine.com
The Highlands Dinner Club has been stepping it up for The Feast Feast helping us organize, curate, plan and generally making The Feast Feast happen. Not only that, they'll be making some deliciousness happen too.
The Highlands Dinner Club is a mobile culinary and social laboratory that offers friends, new and old, a chance to collaborate, invent and produce public food events highlighting local farms, purveyors and seasonal ingredients. HDC is a medium for creative interaction and an incubator for kitchen experimentalism that pushes the boundaries of culinary expression. It is the brainchild of LIMN ARCHITECTS, an architectural and creative design firm practicing in increasingly diversified markets and contexts, including but not limited to: regenerative architecture, urban agriculture, sustainable food systems and social enterprise and innovation.
The convergence of architecture and agriculture is a fundamental source of inspiration for Benjamin Walmer, the co-founder of LIMN Architects. Benjamin hails originally from the rural region of Adams County, Pennsylvania, outside of the historic town of Gettysburg. He comes by his passion for farming and food naturally – he is from a family of fourth generation fruit growers. While growing up, he split his time between the different worlds of Pennsylvania farm life and life in the Washington DC suburb of Arlington Virginia. This twin exposure to alternate environments now informs Benjamin's distinct sense of place and the interconnectedness of natural and built environments and inspires him to re-define and expand people's notions of home and space and food.
With his background in agriculture and culinary experimentation, Benjamin brings a unique perspective to his work as an architect. "Positive manipulation of fundamental patterns is at the heart of creativity," says Benjamin. "And whether in the form of culinary, design or social collaboration, LIMN and HDC are ever intent on synthesizing ideas in order to elevate the experience of the end user."
The Highlands Dinner Club brings compelling people together to cooperatively interact through the fundamental process of planning, preparing and sharing a meal.
We dig food. We dig wine (and beer). We dig the craft. We dig (agri)culture. We dig people. We dig places. We dig ideas. We dig experimination. We dig a good laugh. FOOD MAKES FRIENDS

It's Justin Verlander.
For the seventh straight season, Justin Verlander will take the mound for the Detroit Tigers on Opening Day, March 31, at Comerica Park against the Kansas City Royals. JV's seven straight starts on Opening Day represents the franchise's longest streak since Jack Morris started every Opening Day from 1980 to 1990. In between those two long streaks only one Tigers' pitcher started two straight games on Opening Day (Jeff Weaver in 2001 and 2002).
Early in Spring Training, Ausmus stated he was undecided about who would toe the rubber on Opening Day, saying it could be Verlander, Max Scherzer, or Anibal Sanchez. Some of us (cough, cough) even campaigned for Scherzer. In the end, it was probably all academic and, if healthy, Justin would get the nod.
Pitching on Opening Day had to be a lofty goal for Verlander after undergoing sports hernia surgey in January, but that was his goal all along–to be available on Opening Day, even if it meant he didn't pitch in Spring Training games.
Verlander's progressed very nicely and was ahead of schedule on his rehab most of the way. Though one of his slated Spring Training starts was washed out, Verlander proved he is back with two impressive scoreless starts, including yesterday against the Nationals.
It's worth noting that Scherzer presented a strong case to be the starter. He won the Cy Young a year ago while Verlander struggled through much of the regular season. It is not often that a Cy Young winner from the year before doesn't get the call on Opening Day.
Last Cy Young winner to not start the next opening day: Johan Santana. He won award in 2004. Brad Radke started opener in 2005.
— Chris Iott (@Chris_Iott) March 17, 2014
This was no easy decision for Ausmus–but a luxury to have to make it.
Ausmus made the announcement. "It's a decision 29 other managers would like to have [to make]," he said.
— Jason Beck (@beckjason) March 17, 2014
So while there may be some questions on who will start at left field and shortstop coming March 31, there will no longer be a question about the starting pitcher as a healthy Justin Verlander claims his rightful position.

We've all been perusing the net at the most inappropriate times, work, school, grandmother's funeral. Desperately trying to avoid the seemingly deadly disease of mind numbing boredom. Of course, we inevitably find ourselves at the home base and mother of all boredom cures and procrastination tools, Facebook. Ranging from fun little pictures to deep quotes, occasionally we stumble upon a gem too funny or too striking to let go and not be shared. Below are some of the more mind-blowingly interesting or creative statuses that have been found lately.
The Kony 2012 vs. Carl Weathers Gag.
Famed Comedian Woody Allen said "Comedy just pokes at problems, rarely confronts them squarely. Drama is like a plate of meat and potatoes, comedy is rather the dessert, a bit like meringue." Likewise the funniest facebook statuses come from a place of cynicism. The campaign Kony 2012 pinpointed some of the more obvious targets for comedy: Ignorance, Fads, Crowd Mindset, Children, Perverse Humour, and the Need to Feel both Important and knowledgeable. Every student, teenager, and would be do-gooder began preaching at the pulpit of their wall against the horrible dictator Joseph Kony. Someone, somewhere decided to put the following as their status.
Leading to some pretty sick statuses being generated in pursuit of elevating the situation in Africa and people's sympathy to comedic proportions.
Many users began posting the picture to the left on their walls with statements such as "I love this man" or "God I want to be just like him some day". To those that are not aware. The man on the left is very different from the man on the right. The picture on the left is of Famous African American Actor Carl Weathers in Predator. But, most people were unaware and lead to the following reactions for example.
Texts from Last Night and FML Statuses
These statuses speak for themselves. They are punctual, painful, and very stupid. They are the one liners of the status community. Check Out Ten of the Winners:
Today, I took the bus to work and a sweet old lady got on after me and sat next to me. Halfway to work, she fell asleep and her head was on my shoulder. Trying to be nice, I gently tried to wake her up before my stop came. She wasn't sleeping. I let a dead woman lie on me for 30 minutes. FML
Today, I texted my boyfriend saying "Hi." His response: "I got your best friend pregnant". FML
Today, it's my 18th birthday. My parents got me a $5 gift certificate to iTunes. It came for free with the iPhone they just bought my sister for her middle school graduation. FML
Today, my first girlfriend of over 3 years left me for another guy. She said she's looking for someone who can financially provide for her in the future. The dude owns a T-Mobile kiosk. I'm going to medical school. FML
Today, my son said, "Mommy, sometimes my pee-pee goes up like a stick." I replied, "Well, honey, that's normal and okay." I then asked when it happens, to which he said, "Well, sometimes when watching Scooby Doo and Shaggy comes out dressed in lady clothes." FML
Today, my tampon string was hanging from my bathing suit. My boyfriend thought it was a thread hanging from my bikini bottom. He publicly pulled out my tampon. FML
Texts from Last Night
Ouch. Some of those are more than over the top laughter generators, whilst others are cringing in pain disgustingly surreal. A parallel version would be the Texts from Last Night texts and quotations. Insanely strange, encapsulating teenage angst and quintessential party life first world problems, they are a good addition to appreciate if you ever see them on Facebook.
"work has become about six times more interesting since i started f**king my boss."
"You get drunk and try to bury your girlfriend in the sand JUST ONCE and all hell breaks loose"
"I remember going home with 2 girls. Woke up with 4."
"Just woke up wearing a top hat and simpsons boxers. i also found more money in my wallet then what i had before going out, about $1000 more"
"so I was just driving high and I stopped to let a pinecone cross the road because I thought it was a hedgehog."
"and then she said I drew a line on her forehead with my cum and whispered "Simba"
And that's just a sample. They get far more…. Creative as you read more. Many times Facebook has been polluted with these little tidbits of rager nights and wild times.

October 31, 2014
More pilfered TV sets have been added to the list of those that vanished from the Marriott hotel under construction at 182nd and Cuming. One has been turned over to authorities by someone who said he'd bought it on the street for $200.
The case came to light with the arrests of Tanner Pohlmeier and Juan Garibay. They're accused of stealing 13 television sets from the hotel on Sunday, April 13.
Another report has since surfaced indicating the seven other TVs were taken from the building on Friday, April 11. They're described as 39" Philips LCD TVs.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Department is looking for help from the public to track down the TVs. Investigators say anyone voluntarily turning over the stolen property will not face prosecution.
You can contact the Sheriff's Department at 402-444-6000.

Adel, Georgia
Reed Bingham State Park
[ 9/10 ]
Easy to agree with earlier reviews. A very pleasant campground with many features that invite lengthy stays. When next traveling on I-75 and need to stop for the night, we will seek out this Campground for its overall excellence.
Hartwell, Georgia
Paynes Creek (Hartwell Lake) COE
[ 9/10 ]
One of several U. S. Corps of Engineers properties resting on the shores of 55,000 acre-plus Hartwell Lake. Thoughtfully designed and very well maintained. A highly regarded campgrounds directory awarded Payne's Creek five stars for beauty, spaciousness, site privacy and security, has gated approach, and they were right. We were in site 21 and could just barely see our neighbors. Daytime noise, not objectionable, mostly from Ski-Doos skimming the lake's surface. At night-- very quiet. Our fourth weekend outing this year, 2007 and Payne's Creek turned out to be the top campground of our travels.
Trenton, Georgia
Lookout Mtn. / Chattanooga West KOA
[ 10/10 ]
The point I am attempting to make here will be of little interest to most who read these reviews but it is important to us. One section of the campground is set up for small trailers. Water and electricity only. Other sections, one to be improved this winter, is for Class A, 5th wheels, etc. We enjoy being in the midst of trailers similar to mine. We camp in a hard-sided folding pop-up. So the "small" trailer area-- and its nearby new modern bathhouse-- is just right for us. Broader range of favorable characteristics of this KOA: very well maintained, absence of Interstate noise, excellent swimming pool, large, new outdoor movie theater nearby, and last but certainly not least-- the enthusiasm of the current operator. For young families: lots of activities and a big game room, for kids. We will recommend this site for a weekend rally of our Club members, in 2008. Which says that we would most definitely come back.
Fancy Gap, Virginia
Fancy Gap / Blue Ridge Parkway KOA
[ 9/10 ]
Follow the map and directions given by KOA or you could easily miss the entrance to this pleasant campsite. We were given a shaded site on a concrete pad, full hookup. Neighbors fairly close but never a problem. Nice clubhouse, spotless bathrooms, well-stocked store. We wouldn't hesitate to return if we were traveling up or down I-77.

Unlike the old guard, young Republicans fine with gay marriage. Lawmakers reject Speaker Lockhart's ed funding plan. Herbert signs Count My Vote compromise.
Happy Tuesday. While Republicans have made a push to keep marriage between a man and a woman, their younger supporters don't think it's that big of a deal. A new poll shows some 60 percent of GOP voters age 18-29 are fine with same-sex marriage. Even more among that group supported allowing gay couples to raise children. [Politico]

Find which folder contains an app on iOS
Well for the most part this hint works... BUT... it does not work for every app or perhaps combinations of apps. For example, I have VNC Lite and Pocket Cloud. What happens in that case when I enter VN for the spotlight search is that it shows VNC as the 'Top Hit' and does not show what folder it is in. It also shows Pocket Cloud and the correct folder it is in.

Arms Trade Issues
Campaigns past and present
Introduction to the Arms Trade
The vast majority of arms sold around the world, including those to human rights abusing governments or into conflict areas, are legal and actively supported by governments. Take our tour around the key issues of the arms trade.
Public Institutions
Arms companies are hiring the spaces of our museums, galleries, and historical buildings – even our cathedrals. By agreeing these deals, public institutions are giving practical support and a veneer of legitimacy to an industry based on death and destruction. We're asking them to reconsider.
Arms Fairs
Arms Fairs exist so that arms buyers and sellers can come together, network and make deals. They allow the weapons manufacturers to promote their products to regimes in conflict, those with terrible human rights records, or with human development needs.
UKTI: Armed & Dangerous
The UK government doesn't just approve the sales of arms to unstable & despotic regimes - it actively promotes them - through a taxpayer funded arms sales unit. CAAT is calling for the closure of the UKTI Defence & Security Organisation (UKTI DSO) and an end to its functions.
Jobs and the Economy
One of the few ways the Government and the arms companies can rally public support for the arms trade is to claim that it keeps people in work. But these jobs are supported by public funds and the Government could reallocate the resources to create work in far more socially-useful activities.
BAE Systems
BAE Systems is the world's third largest arms producer, with military customers in over 100 countries. Its portfolio includes fighter aircraft, warships, tanks, armoured vehicles, artillery, missiles and small arms ammunition.
This is NOT OK
The UK government claims it has a "responsible" attitude to arms sales. Yet it spends public money on persuading some of the world's worst human rights abusers and most unstable regimes to buy weapons. CAAT's campaign says This is NOT OK.
CAAT's other current issues
- Political Influence of Arms Companies
- Arms Trade Treaty
- Corporate Mercenaries
- Security
- Corruption
- Military drones and Killer Robots
- Export Credits

Customizing your car? Don't choose between enhanced looks and improved performance. Get the best of both worlds with a quality Lowering Kit. We all know how attention-grabbing custom-lowered cars are. Lowered rides have a racecar look that turns heads and makes other drivers wish their cars were just as cool. But aside from increasing a vehicle's cool factor by tenfold, decreasing your ride's ground clearance can also be beneficial when it comes to your car's overall performance. You see, by lowering the gravity center of your vehicle, you're also enhancing its driving precision. This means that your car has a quicker response when it comes to your handling and steering. It increases the maneuverability of your vehicle, thereby eliminating body roll while boosting your cornering speed and turn-in response. What's amazing about this product is that some of its variants can also aid your suspension in reducing roughness and vibration. Combine all of these benefits and what you get is a ride that looks great and performs spectacularly. So what exactly can you expect to find in a Lowering Kit? Well, standard kits feature replacement springs and other suspension components. These kits can offer a rear, front, or front and rear drop of up to four inches. Some kits also come with all the mounting hardware you need to lower your ride. The key to finding the right type of kit for your vehicle is knowing what works for your car. Get to know your options by heading to the Auto Parts Warehouse catalog now.Customizing
Date Published: July 30,2014
Getting the Right Lowering Kit for Your Car
One surefire way you give your car better handling and an attention-grabbing, racecar look is by getting lowering springs. Just by lowering your car's center of gravity, you will experience improved driving precision as well as much lower risk of vehicle sway or body roll.
A lowering kit saves you both time and money by providing you all the right parts you will need to lower your ride. By giving you one package with all the components that directly fit into the particular model of your car, you won't have to split hairs looking for every little, specific component. While lowering kits vary, you can usually expect to get some or all of the following:
- Coil and/or leaf springs
- Stabilizing bars or brackets
- Control arms
- Shock absorbers
- Mounting hardware
- Installation instructions
- Warranty period
Considerations to make before getting a lowering kit:
- Modifying your vehicle's suspension may void your vehicle's warranty. You may want to contact your dealership before proceeding with any modifications.
- Lowered vehicles are not ideal for driving in rough roads or on snow. Although lowered suspension gives you better car control, it also gives you a stiffer ride, thus compromising some comfort. Make sure the modification suits your driving needs as well as your environment.
Now here are some things to consider in getting a lowering kit for your car:
- Compatibility: As mentioned earlier, lowering kits contain components that directly fit specific vehicle models. Make sure the lowering kit you purchase is tailored to your car's specific year, make, and model.
- Sway bars: We recommend getting a lowering kit that includes replacement sway bars. By reducing vehicle sway, they prevent stress that may eventually damage your car.
- Performance-oriented springs: If you prioritize better handling for intense driving applications, performance-oriented springs are the way to go. However, they sacrifice a lot in terms of riding comfort. If you're a casual driver who just wants the lowered look, you can get normal lowering springs that lower your vehicle without taking away too much when it comes to ride comfort.
- Shock absorbers: We recommend lowering kits that come with heavy-duty shock absorbers. Your regular shock absorbers won't be calibrated for your new springs, which will be lower and stiffer.
- Ground clearance: Make sure you have a good idea of how much ground clearance you'll have with your lowering kit. If your car is too low, you may not be able to drive safely on the street-especially one with speed bumps.
Date Published: July 30,2014
Fitting Lowering Springs to Your Car
If you want give your car better maneuverability while giving it an exciting, racecar look, lowering your car's suspension is definitely the way to go. By lowering your vehicle's center of gravity, you will experience better driving precision and much lower risk of body roll. A lowering kit will save you both time and money by giving you the right parts for your vehicle and making the process an interesting project you can manage yourself with the right tools and knowhow.
Difficulty Level: Moderate
Here's what you'll need:
- Floor jack
- Jack stands
- Lug wrench
- Wrench and socket set
- Pickle fork tool
- Lowering springs kit
- Work gloves and other personal protective equipment
- Vehicle owner manual
Safety Tips:
- Make sure your vehicle is on a level surface - it might roll or lean when jacked up.
- Never rely on just the floor jack to hold up your vehicle. Be sure your jack stands are properly placed.
- We recommend working after your vehicle's engine has cooled down.
- This is a general guide. Refer to your owner's manual for any specifications.
- Place your vehicle in "Park" or "Neutral" before you begi.
Here's what you should do:
- Loosen the lug nuts on your wheels (without removing them).
- Use the floor jack to raise your vehicle. Set up the jack stands.
- Fully remove the lug nuts and the wheels of your vehicle.
- Using your pickle fork tool, remove the control arm and the ball joint from the strut.
- Pull out the strut tower from under your vehicle. You should find the suspension spring attached to the strut tower.
- Slowly slide your old spring off of the strut tower. Take care not to damage the strut tower while doing this.
- Install your new lowering spring onto the strut tower. You should hear a clicking noise, which tells you that the spring has been securely fastened.
- Put everything back together in the reverse order of disassembly.
- Repeat steps 4 to 8 for the other wheels.
- Lift your vehicle a bit higher using the floor jack so you can remove the jack stands before lowering your car to the ground.
The whole process should take a little over an hour for an experienced DIYer. Refer to your vehicle's owner manual for specifications that may require you to deviate from these general instructions.

On a wintry Midwestern day, a class of freshmen from the local Montessori high school is crowding into a sun-warmed greenhouse in Milwaukee to learn how to raise vegetables. For six weeks, the students have been focused on growing organic salad greens, herbs, pea shoots and sunflower sprouts. One day soon, they may be selling them to local residents and businesses. Their mentor and teacher, a man who towers over them, is Will Allen, a 6'7" former basketball player and the creator of Growing Power an organization that's building on a trend flourishing across America: urban farming. … Back to Article

The Belleview Biltmore Resort
The Belleview Biltmore Resort is amazing! We had both our Ceremony and Reception there. We always wanted a beach wedding, and they have that option (as well as a couple of other locations for ceremonies). Our ceremony on the beach was perfect. The reception was just as beautiful! They have many areas in their venue that you can have your reception at, and all of them are beautiful! I would have given them all 5 stars, but only 4 because I definitely felt that their communication could have been much better! (Even our coordinator had problems hearing back from them.)

Biltmore Golf & Spa Resort (Coral Gables - Miami)
We didn't really want to travel far in Florida for our honeymoon (I don't like to go too far without my kids for a long time), so when hubby suggested the Bilmore in Miami for our honeymoon, I was game! I love that hotel, and it was just perfect for us to enjoy being newlyweds!

Dana really understood my vision and wants for the flowers for our bouquets and centerpieces. She took all my notes, my pictures and really listened to what I wanted and didn't want. When our bouquets were dropped off, my jaw just DROPPED! My bouquet was HUGE and PERFECT! I wanted to cry right away because it was just so beautiful! But then when we went into the ballroom to do some pictures before the reception, and I saw how everything came together, I couldn't hold back the tears. Everything was PERFECT!

Main Stage Production
by Robert Harling
Directed by Paul Fouhy
February 14 - March 2, 2014
Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays @ 8pm, Sundays @ 2pm
The quintessential story of friendship and trust, Steel Magnolias serves up a southern slice of life that's as warm and comforting as sweet potato pie! In the world of Truvy's local-homegrown beauty salon, six very different women come together to share their secrets, fears and love for one another. They engage the audience in hysterical and neighborly gossip. From weddings to divorces, babies to funerals, new beginnings to happy endings, they share each moment in their lives with grace, determination, and perfectly coiffed hair. When tragedy strikes, it is in the familiar comfort of Truvy's salon where they seek the solace and support that carries them through.
Follow the link on the left to purchase the 1989 Special Edition DVD of Steel Magnolias, starring Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Sally Field, Julia Roberts, and Daryl Hannah
Synopsis (***May Contain Spoilers***)
The action centers on Truvy's beauty parlour and the women who regularly gather there. The story begins on the morning of Shelby's wedding to Jackson and covers events over the next three years, including Shelby's decision to have a child despite having Type 1 diabetes and the complications that result from the decision. There is also a glimpse of the unlikely friendship between Clairee and Ouiser; Annelle's transformation from a shy, anxious newcomer in town to a good-time girl and then to a revival-tent Christian; and Truvy's relationships with the men in her family. Although the main storyline involves Shelby, her mother and Shelby's medical battles, the underlying group-friendship among all six women is prominent throughout the drama.
The story of Steel Magnolias is based on the death of Robert Harling's younger sister, Susan Harling Robinson, a diabetic. As her best friend and closest sibling, Harling found it very difficult to cope with her death. He was advised by many of his friends to write about his feelings as a coping method. It began as a short story and evolved into a full length play as Harling didn't feel that a short story adequately conveyed the complexity of the relationships and the emotions that existed within the characters.
The setting is the fictional small town of Chinquapin, Louisiana which is located in the (also fictional) parish of Chinquapin.
The stage play was originally staged Off-Broadway. All of the action of the play takes place solely on one set — Truvy's beauty salon, which is part of her house. There are only six characters (all female) that appear on stage. There is the voice of a DJ on the radio that is heard during the play. All the other characters (like the male characters) that appear in the film version are only referred to in the dialogue.

For me, a happy ending is never a cop-out. I think the viewer is kind of hard-wired to want romance and a nice ending. It's such a fundamental human thing. As a viewer, you want that sense of good fortune. People do find love in real life. What's wrong with that?

Today's Hours: 10am to 5pm
My job at COSI is the best – one of the parts of my job that I enjoy the most is working with COSI's giant digital screen theater – The Extreme Screen Theater.
I have been working with the theater for the past eleven years and opening new films, meeting film makers and seeing guest reactions to the films never gets old.

My first canoe trip on the Scioto was on May 11. The weather was perfect – sunny, cool, and with only a light breeze. There are three people and two canoes in our party. George Anderson, local photographer, is in the solo canoe he built himself with a case of photography equipment, and David Rutter, MORPC's Water Quality Project Manager, and I are in the second canoe which we rented from Columbus Outdoor Pursuits.
Getting to this moment involved a great deal of planning and management of logistics. Here is how it went:
Many companies and individual donors provide support for youth programs at science centers around the country. I have worked with many over my years at different museums and they all bring sincerity and hope at some level to their support.
But I have never had the experience of working with a company and individuals quite so dedicated, visionary, and personally engaged and committed as those around the Miracle-Gro Capital Scholars program. Today's feature story in The Columbus Dispatch shares the special story of how the Hagedorn family and the Scotts Miracle-Gro company (where Jim Hagedorn is CEO) have made an incredible commitment to help youth make a fundamental change in their lives in partnership with COSI and others.

Driving east out of Kenton on State Route 309, I find myself almost immediately back in farm country. County Road 144 veers off to the southeast and pretty much follows the course of the Scioto River. One unique aspect of the river at this part of its course is that it flows so close to the sub-continental divide – a ridge that divides the waters that flow south into the Ohio River from those that flow north into Lake Erie. This results in no permanent tributaries entering the Scioto from the north, but several adding their waters from the south. Wolf Creek, Jim Creek, Panther Creek and Wild Cat Run all flow north into to the Scioto over the course of the next several miles.
We're always experimenting and trying new things at COSI
Today our experiment is in the marketing of COSI – we announced at 12 Noon today the "Brain Trip: A year of cerebral challenges and minds-on exhibits". This was our way to announce the next four traveling exhibits for 2012-2013.

Mio Sushi Restaurant Review: Here's where Mio Sushi started, a charming converted Victorian home in the Northwest 23rd neighborhood. Now with branches around the city and even China, the Portland-based chain offers quality sushi at a moderate price point. The expansive menu proposes a wealth of intriguing alternatives for anyone weary of the same old rolls and sashimi. The fish is always fresh (Mio Sushi deals directly with fishermen and distributors) and daily specials abound. Spider rolls made with soft shell crab, California rolls, and spicy tuna are tops, or you can try the Caterpillar (unagi, cucumber, avocado, sweet sauce) or the Oregon with real crab and asparagus inside, plus salmon and avocado on the outside. Or go for non-sushi alternatives such as poke salad with Hawaiian tuna, the tempura, or the seaweed salads. For a change of pace, try the innovative sushi pizza: seaweed topped with fish, crab or shrimp, a special sauce, plus sesame seeds and green onions. While the interior can feel cramped, the atmosphere is friendly, service is fast, and children are welcomed. Tempura ice cream is a special for dessert. Beer and wine are available.
