Fearing our country is at risk of losing an entire generation of young people in urban centers who feel trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty, violence, hopelessness and despair; Duncan-Andrade's core work is in finding solutions that can help the vast majority overcome such toxic conditions to become responsible and productive adults that will eliminate those conditions. He has lectured around the world about the elements of effective teaching in schools serving poor and working class children. He has authored two books and numerous journal articles and book chapters on the conditions of urban education, urban teacher support and development, and effective pedagogy in urban settings. His first two books, The Art of Critical Pedagogy: Possibilities for Moving from Theory to Practice in Urban Schools and What a Coach Can Teach a Teacher, focused on effective teaching strategies for urban schools. He is currently completing his third book which focuses on core competencies of highly effective educators.

Track 10 on CDA68041/2 CD2 [4'26] 2CDs
After this highly theatrical overture, an Andante and Allegro (really a French allemande and Italian corrente) are discreet, consistently in two parts, one for each hand, with canonic imitations. The sarabande, more harmonic in texture, is heart-easingly lyrical, flowering into additional ornamentation in the repeats. The conventionally Italianate gigue is unpretentious, but Handel adds as finale a massive passacaille: not a series of melodic extensions over an unvarying linear ground, as in Dido's 'Lament', but a set of variations over a chord sequence, beginning in diatonic homophony but increasingly chromaticized into diminished sevenths (the stock operatic 'chord of horror', since it consists of two interlinked and rootless tritones). Significantly, this piece is not in the triple rhythm typical of processional passacaglias (and of chaconnes and sarabandes) but is rather in a common time relating back to the fugato section of the overture. It marches remorselessly, generating increasingly virtuosic figuration. There is nothing like this in Bach, and its effect is remarkably similar to that of Handel's monumentally public choruses in his oratorios. If this Handelian passacaille is ceremonial, it is a procession no longer of court dignitaries, but of affluent British burghers.

Forget about the possibility of suspended wide receiver Da'Rick Rogers playing for Tennessee this season.
Rogers has transferred to Tennessee Tech, days after being suspended by Tennessee coach Derek Dooley for violating team rules.
"I'm excited to be in purple and gold," Rogers said in a statement released by the university.
Dooley said before the transfer was announced Monday that Rogers was "not a part of our team, as expected."
Because Tennessee Tech is a Football Championship Subdivision school, Rogers can transfer there without having to sit out a year.
Rogers caught 67 passes for 1,040 yards and nine touchdowns to earn all-SEC honors for Tennessee last season. He was indefinitely suspended Thursday. ESPN.com reported Rogers repeatedly violated UT's substance-abuse policy for athletes.
"I see it as a new beginning. All the coaches and players have been welcoming," Rogers said. "Everybody has welcomed me with open arms and that's been a big thing. It seems to be like a family. I already knew a few players on the team like (quarterback) Tre Lamb, (running back) Adam Urbano and (wide receiver) Carter Crutchfield. It's a good place to be."
Rogers, Lamb and Urbano were teammates at Calhoun (Ga.) High.
Tennessee Tech went 7-4 and earned its first FCS playoff berth last year.

Series: Evolution Basics (50 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Stephen Meyer and the Discovery Institute seek to make the case for the designer in a purely scientific context, without specifying who the designer is. At BioLogos, we take the approach that science is not equipped to provide a full Christian apologetic.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.
In this series, James Kidder provides an intriguing study on transitional fossils and the evolutionary history of modern humans. He begins by discussing the fossil record, explaining how new forms are classified. He then explains the physically distinguishing trait of humankind—bipedalism. From the discovery of Ardipithecus, the earliest known hominin, to the australopithecines, the most prolific hominin, Kidder focuses on the discovery, the anatomy, and the interpretation of these ancestral remains.
There are two opposite errors which need to be countered about the fossil record: 1) that it is so incomplete as to be of no value in interpreting patterns and trends in the history of life, and 2) that it is so good that we should expect a relatively complete record of the details of evolutionary transitions within all or most lineages.
One of the challenges for discussing evolution within evangelical Christian circles is that there is widespread confusion about how evolution actually works. In this installment we explore how evolution is a theory in the scientific sense, how it is supported by converging lines of evidence, and how it can make accurate predictions about the natural world, using whale evolution as an example.
Now that we have covered significant ground with respect to what various classes of pseudogenes are and how they arise, we are now able to properly evaluate antievolutionary arguments put forward in an attempt to discredit these lines of evidence for evolution.
The discovery of DNA has revolutionized our understanding of common descent, particularly in the past few decades. Mutated genes spread through populations over generations, leading to evolutionary change. In this podcast, we look at several examples of genetic evidence for evolution.
This technical series, co-written by Darrel Falk and David Kerk, looks into the evidence for evolution in order to dispel doubts that people may have about this well-supported theory. They look at three things specifically: the separate methods which reveal of the age of the earth, the unfolding history of whale evolution, and finally the common trends of heart development in vertebrates.
This two-part series highlights some of the most common misconceptions about evolution and some helpful responses to them.
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
This blog series by Dennis Venema undertakes the task of clarifying numerous aspects of evolution that often become misconstrued by Christians. He first discusses the idea of speciation in a population over time, later applying it to the speciation process that occurred among hominids (human ancestors) which led to modern humans. He continues to support this idea by exploring so called "Mitochondrial Eve,""Y Chromosome Adam" and other compositional clues of the human genome.
Stephen Matheson presents common descent by evolution as the best explanation for the universal pattern found in tetrapod limbs. He discusses initially the evolution and development of limbs in specifically vertebrate tetrapods. He looks at the question of origins and further digs into amazing fossil discoveries. He then gives evidence of evolution from fish to tetrapods by discussing the similarities in the anatomy, development, and genetic systems associated with this amazingly common pattern in vertebrate appendages.
Dennis Venema begins this series by summarizing a key Intelligent Design belief: that if we see specified information, we infer design because we are unaware of a mechanism that can bring about specified information in the absence of intelligence. In each subsequent part of the series, Venema shows why this argument is wrong. Venema presents evidence to show that natural mechanisms can, in fact, explain the origin of new information. He reminds his readers, however, that this does not in any manner exclude God from the process.

HARRISONBURG, Va., - James Madison used a pair of 12-0 first-half runs and put four players in double figures to effort its way past Delaware 64-50 in a Colonial Athletic Association men's basketball game Wednesday night at the Convocation Center.
JMU won its fourth straight home game and snapped a two-game skid to improve to 10-10 overall, 4-3 in the CAA. The victory was the 150th career triumph for head coach Matt Brady, who upped his career mark to 150-127 in nine seasons. UD dropped its third straight league contest to fall to 8-11 overall, 3-3 in the CAA.
Delaware entered the game leading the CAA in scoring (75 points/game) and field goal percentage (.482) in conference play but was held to 28.9 percent shooting by a JMU squad that has limited its last three opponents at home to a combined 30.8 percent from the field. The Dukes entered the night second in the league in scoring defense and field goal percentage defense in conference play.
Madison shot just 33 percent from the floor itself but held significant advantages in each of the "hustle categories," including 48-32 in rebounds, 18-6 offensive rebounds, 13-4 points off turnovers, 15-2 on second-chance points, 17-2 on fastbreak points, 7-2 for steals and 17-8 on assists. The 48 total rebounds, 18 offensive rebounds and +16 rebounding margin were each JMU's best marks since the first half of the 2010-11 season.
Senior guard A.J. Davis (Columbus, Ohio/Harmony Community School) led four Dukes in double figures with 16 points off the bench on 7-for-11 shooting. Senior forward Rayshawn Goins (Cleveland, Ohio/Glenville) had 15 points and 13 rebounds for his fifth double-double of the season and 11th career, moving him to seventh for all-time double-doubles.
Senior guard Devon Moore (Columbus, Ohio/Northland) posted 10 points, eight rebounds and six assists while moving into third in JMU history in career minutes (3,606). Freshman guard Andre Nation (Plant City, Fla./Faith Baptist Christian) added 12 points, including 10 in the first half. Freshman guard Ron Curry (Pennsauken, N.J./Paul VI) contributed six assists along with four points, four boards and two steals while freshman forward Taylor Bessick (Philadelphia, Pa./Rise Academy) added nine rebounds, four points and two blocks.
Delaware was led by guard Devon Saddler with 16 points, six boards and three assists while guard Jarvis Threatt went 9-for-12 at the free throw line to finish with 12 points. Forward Jamelle Hagins, who last year dominated JMU with 23 points and 18 rebounds, was held to four points and four rebounds on Wednesday.
JMU took advantage of a pair of 12-0 runs in the first half, holding Delaware to one field goal for a span of more than 13 minutes, to take a 29-18 lead into the locker room. The Dukes shot just 30 percent in the opening frame but limited Delaware to 22.7 percent and led the Blue Hens in rebounds 26-15 for the half.
The Blue Hens briefly cut it to single digits with two Threatt free throws early in the second half but JMU responded with an 8-0 spurt to push the margin to 17, and Delaware never got closer to 13 thereafter.
UD did not convert its first three-point field goal until nine minutes remained in the game. JMU was close to a team record for field goal percentage defense (.214) with the Blue Hens shooting .220 with under three minutes to go and JMU leading 58-38. However, Delaware hit each of its last four attempts in the final minutes to raise the mark to .289.
JMU continues its stretch of five out of six league games at home with a 4 p.m. game on Saturday against Old Dominion with television coverage on Comcast SportsNet (Mid-Atlantic, Philadelphia, New England) and CSS (Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast).
NOTES: JMU cut Delaware's lead in the all-time series to 12-6, though the Dukes have won six of the last nine... Matt Brady improved to 6-2 all-time against Delaware, including 3-2 with JMU... Moore posted his 60th career game in double figures... Moore passed Eric Brent (1983-87) and Kent Culuko (1991-95) from fifth to third in career minutes, trailing only former teammates Julius Wells (3,688) and Pierre Curtis (4,137)... Moore and Curry each reached at least six assists in the same game for the second time this season (UNCG)... JMU held an opponent under 20 points in the first half for the second straight home game (19 by Drexel)... the 18 points by Delaware in the first half were the fewest allowed by JMU in an opening period since 15 by Fordham on Nov. 30, 2008... after going 2-for-10 from the arc as a junior, Goins is now 11-for-24 (.458) with his fourth game with multiple threes... JMU led bench points 22-9... Delaware had just three players score in the first half (Saddler 8, Josh Brinkley 6, Threatt 4)... JMU improved to 6-1 when holding an opponent under 60 points, 8-1 when leading at the half, 9-0 when leading with five minutes remaining, 9-0 with two minutes remaining and 8-0 with one minute to go... Delaware was held under 30 percent shooting for just the second time this season with the other being a 27.7 percent showing at Duke.

Read more about Enrollment Dips, Spirit Climbs Union College volunteers serve community: Is it still altruistic if you're having fun? September 4, 2008 It's rare to hear college students chat excitedly about weeding, cleaning, painting and sorting, but as groups trickled back to the Union College campus from serving more than 50 sites around Lincoln, Neb., those were the topics on everyone's mind. "We washed windows, scraped gum off tables, dusted book covers ... none of it was anything I'd think to do on my own," said Ashley Herbel, a freshman pre-med student from Wichita, Kansas after spending the morning at South Library. "But going with a group of friends can make anything fun." With more than 800 participants, there were a lot of friends, new and old, to transform the chores into constructive play. This year's turnout included over 80 percent of the student body along with college employees and volunteers from other local Seventh-day Adventist organizations. While attendance isn't taken for the volunteer event, Rich Carlson, vice president for spiritual life, said Union's Campus Ministries distributed more t-shirts to campus volunteers than in previous years. "I think this is the largest group we've ever had," Carlson said. Begun in 1981 as Project Brush, the original goal of the day was to paint 100 houses in 10 years. After completing the 113th house, the event was renamed and the projects diversified. Now volunteers focus on serving the agencies that serve others, providing helping hands to do tasks over-stretched social service organizations have a hard time keeping up with. "It amazes me you can take 10 or 12 people and get done in a few hours what would take me days to do on my own," said Huda McClelland, Union's director of admissions who has witnessed most of the event's 27-year history. "What we've heard so far from the agencies is overwhelmingly positive," Carlson said. "They're always amazed by the quantity and quality of work our students do and the attitude with which it is done." Listening to students talk under the campus' clock tower as they shared 220 pizzas, the conversations always returned to the same refrain: the work wasn't only fast, it was fun. Erin Webb, a senior business administration major from Greenville, Tenn., told about finding a creative outlet while painting barrels at Goodwill. Beau Snyder, a senior from Culver, Ore., described cleaning at the Lincoln Children's Museum as, "playing with a pressure hose." Even when Jennifer Dovich, a junior pre-med student from Turner, Ore., mentioned getting paint in her eye while painting a ceiling at Mahoney Elementary School, she added, "It was worth it, it was awesome and so much fun." Some former students who have experienced the spirit of the community service event returned to share in the labor and the camaraderie again. Thang Nguyen, an alumnus now working in Web development at Nebraska Books, told his boss about the event and she encouraged him to take the day off to participate. "I didn't want to miss the fun," Nguyen said. Since its inception, Project Impact has been student-led. This year Ann Bryant, a senior business administration major from Woodbury, Tenn., organized the event for the third time and trained a new coordinator, Emily Carlson, a junior elementary education major from Mohrsville, Pa. Both students, with the assistance of Ashley Groeneweg, a biology education major from Omaha, Neb., spent the summer organizing site lists, coordinating with sponsors and ensuring transportation and tools were available. "Hearing the enthusiasm from the organizations makes the months of planning worth it," Bryant said. Bryant added, "The worst thing that happened today was I didn't have anywhere to send the people who finished and wanted to do more." While the chores for the day may be completed, she hopes the contacts made will serve as a springboard for future service. Past Project Impacts have developed into long-term commitments for both individuals and student organizations, such as the volleyball team, the women's basketball team and the Union Scholars honors program. "One day of raking or painting makes the community slightly nicer," Bryant said. "But creating an environment where service is fun and exciting can have a big impact on the world."

Union College invites community to hear Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow September 3, 2008 Union College Division of Business and Computer Science welcomes Raichelle "Rai" H. Glover as a Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow Sept. 8-12. Glover, an accomplished executive, motivational speaker, leadership coach and civic volunteer, navigated corporate America as a Christian business woman in her fast-climbing career with Bank of America. According to Barry Forbes, chair of Union College Division of Business and Computer Science, when funding became available through division's Advisory Board to host a visiting fellow, the group had many intriguing leaders to choose from. The division chose Glover because of her wealth of her experiences and connections between her areas of expertise and Union's learning environment. "Topics such as 'liberal arts paths to corporate leadership' and 'what corporate diversity means today' are extremely relevant to Union College students," Forbes said. "Rai Glover's experience with work/family balance and strong civic engagement as shown by her many awards exemplify qualities that are important to this generation. We are honored that she accepted our invitation to spend the week with our students." In her first book release (2007), Corporate to Kindergarten, Rai shares her personal weekly diary of the joys and struggles she faced while being a mom to a kindergartner and managing a thriving corporate career. While on campus, Glover will be a guest speaker in six classes: Business Communications, Financial Institutions and Markets, Quality Management, Dynamics of Business, Conflict Management, and Nursing Management and Leadership. She will also present for the following free events that are open to the public: Weekly Campus Chapel "How to be a Christian in the Business World" Tuesday, Sept. 9, 10:30 a.m. College View Seventh-day Adventist Church 4801 Prescott Avenue Union College Business Awareness Series "Essential traits of successful leaders" Wednesday, Sept. 10, 7 p.m. Everett Dick Administration Building (amphitheatre, lower level) Located at the center of the Union College campus—3800 S. 48th St. Academic Convocation "Benefits of a liberal arts background in becoming a corporate leader" Thursday, Sept. 11, 10:30 a.m. Everett Dick Administration Building (amphitheatre, lower level) Located at the center of the Union College campus--3800 S. 48th St. For more information about these events, contact Union College Division of Business and Computer Science: 486-2521. Read more about Union College invites community to hear Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow Project Impact kicks off a year of volunteering September 2, 2008 Students always want more of three resources: time, money and sleep. So when Union College students are given a day free of classes and other on-campus commitments, it may seem counter-intuitive that 85 percent choose to show up at 8:15 a.m. to spend the day working--for free. But students make up for what they lack with an excess of enthusiasm and altruism. On Thursday, Sept. 4, Union students will once again commit their time and energy to serving the Lincoln community. "I think everybody wants to help others," said Sara Baptist, sophomore communication major from Canon City, Colo. "When something presents itself like Project Impact, we jump on it. If Union held it more often, people would still go." Began in 1981, Project Impact has given students the opportunity to change their corner of the world wile establishing lasting connections within the community. An estimated 15,100 volunteers have impacted Lincoln with more than 99,000 hours of voluntary labor since its inception. According to available research, it's the longest running collegiate service day with the highest percentage of participation in the nation. There's no brownie points, no extra credit--nothing to motivate the mass of students to join the cause other than satisfaction and a free t-shirt. Whether it's raking leaves, painting shelters, serving up soup or helping build a house, Union College students and faculty turn out to do whatever sweaty, grimy work needs to be accomplished for those in need. Building on the students' energy and 27 years of success, Ann Bryant, senior business administration major and Project Impact coordinator, sees the event as a way for students to connect with agencies they can serve all year. This will be the fourth year Union's women's basketball team will spend the day helping at the Lincoln Children's Museum, a relationship that has grown as the players return throughout the year to help with events. "I like volunteering. I feel it's important," Baptist said. "It's not easy for kids to just say 'I'm going to volunteer this weekend.'" Students like Baptist can find ways to do more by talking to Union's student volunteer coordinator, Kaylea Blackburn, sophomore international rescue and relief major from Summersville, Mo., or read about a different volunteer opportunity highlighted each week in the Clocktower, Union's student newspaper. Bryant, now in her third year of planning Project Impact, sees this year's event as a learning experience for her peers. "Of all the pressures you would think could keep students from volunteering--homework, class, extracurricular activities, the price of gas, whatever--the biggest barrier is awareness," Bryant said. "I've learned that the more people I involve in the planning process of this event, the more people understand the purpose of Project Impact and then are able to take on that passion themselves."

Read more about Union's IRR Program profiled in Journal Star Financial aid changes make planning for college easier May 23, 2008 Alan Orrison, student financial advisor, helps student Dan Martinez navigate the terms of the Gates Millennium Scholarship that brought him to Union. It's been a long time since Union College cost $15 per month, 117 years to be precise. Since then, costs at private colleges nationwide have risen to an average of $23,712 for tuition and fees during 2007-2008, not including room and board. Likewise, the benefits of a bachelor's degree have increased to an expected $800,000 more earned income over a lifetime than someone with a high school diploma.1 Though Union's costs are 32 percent under the national average for private colleges, students and families often need help financing a Christian education. After a year of research and consultation with experts and comparable colleges, Union is launching a new, streamlined financial aid policy. "Our goal has always been to provide an affordable Christian education," said Rob Weaver, vice president for Enrollment and Student Financial Services. "We've kept tuition down largely through the help of our alumni and mission-oriented faculty and staff, but we've been asking ourselves for a while now if we are using our financial aid budget to maximize the benefit it gives students. With the new policy, I think we can answer 'yes.'" The previous financial aid system loaded almost all of the benefits onto the first two years, and while still front-loaded, the new policy includes a renewable component that guarantees more money than before for up to three additional years. "Families will be better able to plan for all four years, and the greater renewable funds will make it easier for juniors and seniors to continue at Union," Weaver said. "We hope this will improve Union's retention rate." While grades and test scores have previously played an important role, much of a student's award was based high school achievements, such as holding leadership positions, being involved in their church and many other variables. Taryn Rouse, Doretha Dale, Alan Orrison and Elina Camarena comprise Union's Student Financial Services team. "Elina and the financial advisors work long hours and weekends when necessary, even taking calls at home," Rob Weaver said. "Their dedication makes financial issues easier for families to deal with." "A system that encourages leadership and involvement sounds like a good idea until you try to implement it," said Camarena, director of Student Financial Services. "We couldn't verify anything, and it favored the outgoing over the shy. With so many variables, it's no wonder we always had long lines at registration. According to Taryn Rouse, student financial advisor, the worst-case scenario under the old system was a student who came unprepared. "If someone couldn't remember or just couldn't articulate what they'd achieved, they'd leave with zero financial aid unless their parents stepped in and did the speaking for them," she said. "Under the new system, the questions are really simple: What was your cumulative GPA? What was your ACT or SAT score? Have you filled out a FAFSA?"2 If a student's answers to the first two questions are 3.5 GPA, an ACT score of 30 (SAT of 1980), then they qualify for the highest level of merit awards, $25,000 over a four-year period, and possibly more if their FAFSA indicates high financial need. Though the focus remains on academic merit and financial need, those with the most to gain from the new policy are average students from middle class families. In the past, a student with average or low grades and test scores, no leadership experience and a family income too high for government grants received little to no financial aid. Now everyone who fills out a FAFSA gets at least $3,000 for the first year, renewable at $1,500 per year for the three years. "We really have to thank our donors for providing so much help to our students through unspecified donations, gifts to the Union College Fund and named scholarships," said Stephanie Meyer, scholarships and events director. "Without their commitment, we could never approach this level of financial assistance. It's important to remember also that what a student qualifies for in direct aid from Union under this policy might not be the only help they receive. Some additional sources of funding will continue to include: Matching church donations. "It says a lot about a student when a church family steps forward to help in their education," Weaver said. "Union will continue to match donations from churches of up to $3,300 at a rate of 50 percent." Scholarships for missions and service. Union will continue to reward students for participation in mission and volunteer service, summer camp work, literature evangelism and other activities that further the mission of the world church. Top test scores. National Merit Award Scholars and those with equivalent ACT scores qualify for 100 percent of tuition. "There are some students every college wants because of their academic excellence," Weaver said. "We are proud of our history of attracting top students to Union, and we'll continue to offer them scholarships at a competitive level." Foundation and corporate scholarships. "I encourage all students to apply for outside scholarships," Rouse said. "Just because Union can't provide more help doesn't mean no one can, and putting a little effort into applying can really pay off." Foundation and corporate scholarships. "I encourage all students to apply for outside scholarships," Rouse said. "Just because Union can't provide more help doesn't mean no one can, and putting a little effort into applying can really pay off." Grace from the Union College Fund. "Every year I see students who face extraordinary circumstances and don't know how they will continue their education," said David Smith, college president. "Sometimes just a little extra support from our alumni can make a huge difference in a student's life. The Union College Fund provides for some discretionary aid each year." While taking the guesswork out of financial aid may make the new system seem less magical to students, God's hand is still evident in funding Union College educations. "It sounds corny, but we do see miracles happen all the time," Rouse said. "Really, it can be frustrating sometimes when I've seen a miracle and can't tell everyone because of privacy concerns." "Seeing everything fall into place makes our jobs rewarding," Camarena added. "We've seen people come in who think they can't afford anything and leave with a plan that meets their needs." "I want everyone in Mid-America to know that if attending Union has ever crossed their minds, but they didn't think they could afford it, they should call us, write us, e-mail us or just come visit," Camarena said. "You never know what's possible." 1 Statistics gathered by the College Board. 2 Free Application for Federal Student Aid.

There should be no recoil, these are light fireballs, but good catch.
Now, how might one use explosions?
Think of all aspects of one.
- I think that if I shoot the fireballs at the ground in front my opponent, then the debris will fly up temporarily blinding them so I can prepare another jutsu, or I can make the fireball then hide an explosive kunai in there so the tag would explode and confuse the opponent as to why the fireball exploded and then the kunais get a boost from the explosion hitting them with extra damage.-
Okay, decent.
Now, focus on the actual explosion itself.
Tell me how you can use it to affect your opponent's senses accordingly.
The explosion's sound can throw the opponent's hearing and then that would mess with their head, causing them to be distorted.
( Bakuhatsu Enhogan ) – Exploding Flame Shots
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user shoots multiple fire shots from their hands that are able to cause fiery explosions on impact with any object. The shots can't set the opponent on fire, though they can cause damage by exploding on him.
Please proceed to create a fireball in the same way you've done before. However, focus your chakra into the middle of this fireball to give it an explosive nature.
Then, proceed to send it directly at my clone, exploding on impact.
I focus fire chakra into my left hand just like before, forming it into an orb but this time, I focus more into the center of the fireball giving it an explosive power that explodes upon impact I take aim at the clone's chest then, in a single motion, I throw the fire ball at a fast speed hitting your clone surprisingly fast and strong exploding causing the clone to fly back and dispersing.
Alright, so due to the nature of this jutsu, how might you use it defensively?
Also, because it explodes, how big would you want to make it as well for the most effect?
Well for defensive measures, I can throw the fireball at the ground, so the explosion can hide my escape or preparation.
But for attacking, I wouldn't want the explosion to be too big or else I wouldn't know where my opponent is going to go.
( Katon: Gōenkyū ) - Fire Release: Great Blaze Ball
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user after performing two hand seals Horse → Tiger exhales a meteor-sized sphere of fire that carries the enemy away and causes a massive explosion on impact.
Now much like the jutsu that required you to jump into the air, this one does also.
Proceed to charge chakra into your feet to propel yourself into the air, releasing three giant bullets of fire as you do so at my clone. These should be like meteors coming down towards my clone, causing an eruption as they hit him.
1. Where do you aim the bullets of fire?
2. What is the purpose of jumping in the air before this jutsu?
I gather chakra into my feet enabling me to jump up 20 feet into the air,then I gather Fire Chakra into my chest while aiming at your clone. I then exhale violently 2 times around your clone to block off any means of escape and to scare the hell out of him xD.Then I shoot the last fireball directly at him causing a huge geyser of fire to spew.
The purpose of jumping into the air is because of the fireballs being so big, it'll be hard to see anything after shooting and another reason is for a bigger range to shoot the fireballs.
Hm...interesting observation of jumping into the air. It does give a wider field of vision of the battlefield, that's for sure.
Furthermore, this allows for direct impact from the sky (also, remember the law of gravity, objects falling down often have greater impacts) and it also allows you to avoid earth jutsus at the same time. (Two-in-one actually). Lastly, it gives you a better field of vision on the battlefield.
( Katon: Gōenka ) - Fire Release: Great Flame Flower
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user jumps in the air and shoots three giant bullets of fire that come down like giant meteors, then erupt into a geyser of flame.
For this next one, please proceed to spit out Fire Chakra once again in the form of gas (free-flowing molecules). Then, guide this ash towards my clone, causing it to surround him.
When it does so, give you and I time to run away...then click your teeth and cause the ash to explode!
I release fire chakra towards your clone in a form of gas and collecting ash as it surrounds and blinds your clone, then I give you the signal and both of us run away before I do anything. you make it but I trip and fell clicking my teeth on accident causing the ash to explode, sending me flying straight at you sensei T_T
Let's actually discuss the smoke a bit. Much like Smoke Bombs and Hidden Mist no Jutsu, what do you think the purpose of it would be?
Smoke or mist's main priority is to mask the user's movement basically blocking the opponent from seeing you so you can prepare another jutsu, a con of this is that it doesn't cover up smell.
Excellent. And especially because this is infused with fire chakra, what additional effects might there be?
With fire chakra infused, it would burn the opponent like under the scorching LA sun :D
ololol, and if it hits their eyes. xD
( Katon: Haisekishō ) - Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user spews superheated ash from their mouth after performing four handseals. The ash is hot enough to cause third-degree burns on the victim. Because it's composed entirely of ash, it stays in the air around the victim like a cloud. If the user clicks his teeth, the stagnant ash will ignite, creating a violent explosion.
Now, this next jutsu is what Sasuke did to allow Kirin.
Proceed to store up fire within your chest then release it in a huge fireball (with the head of a dragon and should be about your body size, big enough to hide you).
Why would fire stir up the clouds?
-I channel a large amount of chakra into my chest molding the to be made fireball so it would have a head of the dragon. I then shoot out the fireball the size of my body covering me while it hurls towards a tree I aimed at about 5 meters away.-
I just realized, in this training thread I killed a lot of trees <.<
This stirs up the clouds because the atmosphere heats up causing an upward air current making storm clouds.
Good. o_o So do you know Lightning to fully use the effects of this jutsu.
Yeah I have up to B rank as of now.
>_O Which doesn't include Kirin...
Moving on...
( Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offense/Supplementary
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user fires several large dragon-shaped fireballs at their opponent after performing one handseal. It is able to alter localized weather conditions to the point of making thunder clouds when shot into the air, enabling the user to perform Kirin.
So, now, proceed to take these Shurikens and before you throw them, infuse them with fire chakra.
However, unlike the D-rank jutsu, with your upgraded experience and knowledge of Fire, these Shurikens should continue to inflame and burn the area they strike, much like Amaterasu.
Toss them at my clone, please. ^_^ State how many you use and where you aim them.
Okay Sensei, it won't burn for too long
- Reaching and taking out 5 shuriken from the weapon pouch on my left knee, I concentrate and then channel fire chakra into the shuriken causing them to catch on fire. Then I aim at the torso of your guldclone because it can spread out in any direction from there, then I throw it at your clone hitting it and the flames continue to spread engulfing it in a huge flame causing your clone to disperse.-

( Katon: Hōsenka Tsumabeni ) - Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user unleashes a volley of shuriken with one hand, while at the same time exhaling fire-infused chakra onto them in order to increase the weapons' destructive potential by making them capable of inflicting severe burns upon direct contact with either the intended victim or any other object caught within their trajectories. Due to the chakra-based nature of the flames that surround them, the shuriken will continue to burn after impact, regardless of the flammability of the object that they ultimately collide with.
Now, much like creating the Dragon Fire heads earlier, release your fire chakra in such a way so that you form ghosts of fire that fly over to my clone and begin doing a merry-go-round around his body.
What might be the purpose of such a jutsu?
- I mold fire chakra in my mouth as I take aim at your clone, I then release 5 ghost like flames that start encircling your clone-
the purpose of this jutsu is to scare the opponents, and as they are surrounded, it heats up and possibly causing burns.
And what's the initial point of it circling...?

Well, it looks like Victoria Beckham may well be gearing up for a classic British summer given that she opened her S/S'12 collection with an ultra violet blue coat over stretch leather leggings. It was a very covered up collection with an urban, sporty feel. It confirmed her position as a woman with her finger on the luxury pulse. And to any woman in the audience who has ever been pregnant it looked like a message from someone who was desperate to ditch her maternity wardrobe.
Coming from one whose home is now LA and who has just delivered her fourth child, we could have been forgiven for expecting something altogether softer. But nine weeks after giving birth to baby Harper and back to her pin slim pre pregnancy figure, Victoria was pushing a fashion agenda that had nothing to do with the beach or babies.
Adding French super stylist, Marie Amelie Sauve to her creative team, the collection was shown in a narrow hall of the NY Public Library on a day when the city marked the 10th anniversary of September 11th. Having observed the city wide silences as marks of respect, Victoria stood to address the audience but was cut short by a blast of music that signaled the start of the show and had her dashing back to her seat.
Model of the moment Arizona Muse was first to stride down the runway in a collarless coat with flared peplum hem over those leggings that finished with stirrups under high heeled court shoes.
Dresses were, as we've come to expect from VB, second-skin tight: a strapless sheath of ultra violet with a deep band of black at the waist cut some uncompromising curves. Another banded dress of ultra violet with vivid orange shoulders and waist panel was accessorized with a covetable tote the same brilliant colour.
Short tunic style dresses had a 1960's geometric feeling to them and were styled with flat sandals with ribbon bound ankles. A military coat dress complete with epaulettes was cut in blush crepe and styled with Stephen Jones' patent confederate cap. Apron dresses and dresses with pleated tennis skirts were finished with her signature exposed zips.
The undeniable hits of the collection were the sporty yet luxurious parkas cut in storm cloud coloured gazar, a couture fabric that is perfect for delivering glossy volume. They looked easy and glamorous over white mini skirts and ankle pieces that turned the court shoes into short boots.
Pushing the accessories, rounding out the selection of dresses with coats and jackets and putting the collection on the runway as a show rather than a presentation, shows Mrs Beckham is making confident strides into the fashion establishment.

A mostly Carmel central coast report May 19-27
- PattyC May 29, 2012 02:53 PM
My husband and I just returned from a week in Carmel with an overnight in Carpinteria on the way. We traveled with our dog and also had friends join us for several nights in Carmel. Many of our picks were based on dog friendliness and I'll put an * in front of places where we brought our dog.
*Santa Barbara Shellfish Company – Our first meal of the trip was lunch at SB Shellfish. My husband had a crab sandwich and I had an abalone plate which was a blackboard special. The crab sandwich was just OK. The abalone was better. I think we'll just stick to the blackboard specials next time. There are 3 or 4 outside tables with table service (we snagged one of these) and a takeout window on the other side with some picnic tables. It was a beautiful day and nice being on the wharf.
*Renaud's Patisserie – We stopped at the downtown location for a pastry. I honestly don't remember what I had! I just remember it was sort of meh. I think I ordered wrong and should've gone with an almond croissant instead.
*Corktree Cellars – Dinner was at Corktree Cellars in Carpinteria. The one caveat here was that our dog had to be on the other side of their patio dividers which were made up of potted plants. The plants aren't high so a big dog would be able to see, or maybe even climb, over. Our dog is small so he had to peek between the pots. We shared the lobster mac and cheese, grilled shrimp and carnitas pizza which ended up being a lot of food and we had to take most of the pizza to go. Our favorite dish was the pizza. We had intended to go to Scarlett Begonia for breakfast the next morning but finished our pizza instead.
*Thomas Hill Organics – This was our lunch in Paso Robles enroute to Carmel. It was hot in Paso but thankfully their patio was fully shaded! We shared a seared ahi starter and I had a shrimp salad while my husband had a warm shrimp dish. It was all very good. Nice and light and perfect for the hot weather. My only quibble is that the service could've been more attentive (i.e. water glasses weren't refilled, we had to ask for another glass of wine) and the food took a long time to come out. We skipped dessert as we were heading to Sculpterra to see a friend play and running low on time.
*Ragged Point Restaurant – We hadn't planned to eat here but had dallied so much that we weren't going to make it to Carmel by dinner. We had some friends who were staying here and decided on an impromptu visit with them and ended up having dinner together. I didn't expect much as it seemed like they had a captive audience but was pleasantly surprised (maybe I just had such low expectations going in). We shared a crab cake appetizer and I had the short ribs while my husband had the seafood pasta. There was nothing inventive about the food but it was reasonably priced and the service was good.
*Parker Lusseau Pastries – This morning was the first of many trips to Parker Lusseau in Monterey (both the Hartnell and Munras locations). I had a delicious kouign amann (for some reason they only sell this at the Hartnell store). Later on in the trip we went back for their apple galette, croissant, almond croissant, pain au chocolat and caneles. They were all delicious. Go early. I went mid-afternoon one day and they were pretty much out of everything. Also they only take cash.
*Sea Harvest – We were wandering around the Crossroads in Carmel so decided to have lunch here. I had checked with Rio Grill but they weren't dog friendly contrary to the incorrect information in some publications. My husband had another crab sandwich (this was better than the one at SB Shellfish) and I had the sand dab/oyster/calamari combo and chips. It was nothing to write home about but fine for what it was and fairly inexpensive. We took the last outside table which happened to be in shade and tried to get them to turn the heater on but it wasn't working.
Cantinetta Luca – Our friends had arrived and the 4 of us had dinner at Cantinetta Luca. Unfortunately they aren't hardy souls like us ;) so this was the first of several dinners indoors without our dog. Everyone ordered a pizza except for me. I started with the arancini followed by a half order of the grilled prawns. Both were good and everyone enjoyed their pizzas. For dessert I had the chocolate soufflé tart. The desserts here are really good as they share the same pastry chef with Aubergine.
Cooking class at Aubergine – Lunch today was actually a cooking class. We made a seared scallop dish with a carrot juice reduction/mascarpone/dijon sauce with duck fat roasted carrots, baby potatoes, walla walla onions and smoked sea salt. I couldn't have imagined how good would taste when I was putting it all together. Here's a pic of the final product.
*Pastries and Petals – Stopped here for a disgustingly good peanut butter fudge cookie. Got one to go for our friends who devoured it immediately.
Aubergine – Tonight was the Terroir dinner at Aubergine featuring streams. Both the monthly Food for Thought and Terroir dinners are no choice menus and an excellent value at $75 including wine pairings. I will let the pictures do most of the talking. The first course was copper river sockeye followed by a second course of Japanese ayu. Next was crayfish and sweetbreads with morels. Dessert was "river stones" – ice cream covered in chocolate, olive and speculoos followed by "s'mores". I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite dish. This was our fifth dinner at Aubergine since Justin Cogley took over the kitchen and he and pastry chef Ron Mendoza have consistently delivered outstanding meals for us.
*400 Degrees Burgers – We happened to hit this place for lunch on their opening day. Not intentionally but we were walking by and a milkshake sounded good. As expected service was a bit confused and disorganized. You order at the counter and the food is brought to you and you also pay at the end of your meal. We had no less than 6 people come to our table to check on us which just added to the confusion. I ended up forgetting to ask for the burger medium rare (they're cooked medium if you don't specify) and they neglected to ask. Got the 400 degree burger, duck fat fries and a black and white shake. It was OK/fine and the service became a source of entertainment for us.
Later on in the trip we went back for a Kobe burger which we liked better (and they asked what temperature we wanted it this time). Service was still a bit slow but better organized and they had added handheld devices at each table where you could add items and swipe your credit card.
re: PattyC
This place needs a lot of help. Kobe burger, ordered medium rare, was ruined at almost well done. Bun wasn't anything special. Fries luke warm and not much flavor. Plus, even though I read they did their research visiting great burger places across the country, they didn't learn much and could take a hint by offering more condiment options. Pickle/peppers bar?, more toppings options?, unique ketchup and mustard than just Heinz? (ever heard of Dijon?) Very disappointing.
re: Dan Wodarcyk
Did you send the burger back and bring up the other issues with them? To their credit, they were pretty good about comping part of our first meal due to the lack of organization. They didn't even have mustard the first day.
re: PattyC
Sending the burger back wouldn't have solved my overall impression of the place. They are attempting to be an upscale burger place but haven't thought through their whole concept. Like I said, I had read in a local publication that they had done "research" of great burger places (Umami, Shake Shack.) Whatever research, it didn't "stick."
For instance, Umami offers great cheese and home made sauce/ketchup options. Michael Symon's "B Spot" in Cleveland has an amazing peppers, pickle and relish bar, plus 4 sauces at every table.
La Bicyclette – Unfortunately this was not one of the better meals we've had at La Bicyclette. Both pizzas arrived at our table slightly burnt and my heirloom apple salad was so so. The roasted escargot however were good and I did like my faro pasta with black truffle (you can order anything on the 3 course menu a la carte). Desserts were bread pudding and an apple tart. Hopefully we just hit them on an off night and this was not part of a downward trend.
Picnic at Point Lobos – Why in such a scenic place are the picnic tables located at the most unscenic spots? That said we still enjoyed our olive loaf and baguette from La Bicyclette (they sort of redeemed themselves with their bread), a fourme d'ambert, brillat savarin and a wonderful black truffle boschetto from the Cheese Shop, more peanut butter and fudge cookies from Pastries and Petals plus some assorted other items we picked up.
Mundaka – All 4 of us thought our dinner here was the second best meal of our trip after Aubergine. We shared some pork loin, prawns, foie gras, grilled asparagus, cauliflower gratin, blood sausage and a lamb flatbread pizza. Interesting and inventive dishes with flavor combinations that worked. We also shared four desserts – the flan, chocolate terrine, ginger cake and crepes of which the first 2 were our favorites.
*Lokal – Today we headed to Carmel Valley and stopped at Lokal for lunch. Our friends left earlier in the day so it was just the 2 of us. My husband had the skirt steak sandwich which was very good. I had the pulled pork sandwich which I thought needed a little something to perk it up. Dessert was a very good kabocha squash cake with cardamom orange ice cream.
*Casanova – Dinner was at a table on the front patio (aka the doggie section) with heaters. My husband had the foie gras followed by the seafood linguine and I started with the abalone followed by the sweet pea ravioli. The food here is more traditional but well executed. Service could've been a bit better. We felt like we were sort of neglected on the front patio but we've also had really good service here. We skipped desserts as I've never been a fan of their desserts.
*Basil – Our final dinner of the trip was on the heated patio of Basil. The specials tonight sounded really good so we pretty much stuck to those except for one dish. My husband started with a seafood soup followed by the squid ink pasta with calamari. I had the soft shell crab followed by prosciutto wrapped halibut cheeks. We shared a bread pudding for dessert. Everything was very good. This was probably our third favorite meal of the trip. We've had a few misses here previously too but when they're on, they're really good. They also do themed prix fixe dinners a few days at the beginning of each month which are worth trying.
re: PattyC
Excellent, thorough report. I particularly appreciate the paso and templeton info because I'm much more likely to find myself near one of those on my annual trek to Avila Beach. The Templeton spot sounds like a hidden gem.
re: Bean Counter
BC: you are in for a treat by summer's end: David Morse is moving The Bread Garden Bakery from Berkeley down to Paso, into the former location of the Paso Robles Bakery on Park Street. It will be called the 'Paso Robles Bakery'. Look for his signature artisan breads, euro pastries and cookies. Oh, I can hardly believe our good luck! The building permits are being applied for now and he hopes to be open by early fall.
*Pier 46 Seafood – We had wanted to try Luna Red in SLO but they said dogs aren't technically allowed on their patio. We thought about Novo but wanted to try some place different. If anyone knows of other Chow-worthy dog friendly places in SLO, please let me know. We ended up at Pier 46 Seafood in Templeton where my husband had a very good seafood quesadilla and I had a yummy lobster roll. Definitely worth a stop!
re: PattyC
all I can say is- I wish I was your dog! sounds like you had a wonderful time- a trip planned around friends and food!
re: OldJalamaMama
Our dog is pretty spoiled :)
We did have a wonderful time and really lucked out with the weather too!
re: PattyC
up by the train station just off Osos is Sally Loo's (Sally is a dog) a coffee house-cafe. Food is ok, a bit pricey ,and the service slow, but you can park out front at a table with your dog. email talk show host Dave Congalton at KVEC radio, he'd know---he's very dog-centric and really gets around the community. It might be a fun topic for his call in segment--where can you eat well, with your favorite pooch?
re: toodie jane
Thanks for the suggestion!

In the Man vs. Wild Season 5 DVD set, adventurer Bear Grylls heads back into the wild for the 5th season of Man vs. Wild where he tackles extreme survival challenges in some of the most inhospitable places on earth. Bear goes from the extremes of Eastern Europe's frozen mountains to the searing humidity and crocodile-filled landscape of Northern Australia's Arnhem Land. In the Man vs. Wild DVDs from season five, Bear is marooned on a desert island in the Torres strait, south of Papua New Guinea. He must find food and water, before setting to sea. The setting may seem idyllic, but these waters are patrolled by deadly jellyfish, stingrays and sharks. And, in the Man vs. Wild videos, Season 5, Bear comes way too close for comfort with these ultimate predators. In special edition 'Fan Vs Wild', Bear leads two lucky fans on a 48-hour survival mission in the frozen Purcell mountains of Canada to test their nerves, their reflexes, and their stomachs. In the Man vs. Wild Season Five DVDs, Bear heads into the Canadian Rockies and then the Mojave Desert to face the elements at their worst, and test what they really do to the body. In Canada, Bear is buried alive in an avalanche to test how long can he survive, swims 30 feet under an ice pack, and weathers a blizzard in a snow cave. But, in the Man vs. Wild Season 5 DVD set, you'll learn that even the best laid plans can go awry. Bear is airlifted to the hospital when a glissade test goes horribly wrong. Once he's healed, Bear heads to the other extreme: the Mojave Desert. In the Man vs. Wild DVDs from season five you'll see that there, he finds out what it's like to be caught up in 48,000 gallons of flash flood, and then engulfed in a 90 mph sandstorm. But in the Man vs. Wild videos from Season 5, you'll discover that it's not all a chore for Bear. He makes a personal record: a HALO jump from 30,000 feet, so high he can see the curvatures of the Earth!
Shop for the Man vs. Wild Season 5 DVD set, and watch as intrepid adventurer Bear Grylls puts his survival skills and body to the ultimate test against nature, week after week.
Disc 1
Western Pacific: Adventurer Bear Grylls washes up on a dangerous desert island somewhere south of Papua New Guinea. Armed only with a stick, he crosses a shark-infested tidal channel and faces off against an angry 8 footer. Bear risks life and limb climbing crumbling volcanic cliffs and leaping over a 100 foot death drop. Desperate for food, the hunter becomes the hunted as Bear attempts to catch a shark with his bare hands. Constructing a windsurfer out of bamboo Bear sets off over wild ocean waves in search of rescue but will his makeshift vessel hold together long enough to get him out of the dangerous waters to safety.
Northern Australia: Adventurer Bear Grylls scrambles onto a wartime cargo plane and skydives into Australia's Northern Territory. Arnhemland is an enormous prehistoric landscape that covers 91,000 square kilometers and is the heartland of aboriginal culture. For 50,000 years, these hunters lived side by side with nature, developing extraordinary bushcraft to survive. And it's through this rich legacy that Bear demonstrates his skills to live in a place where the temperature rarely dips below 100 degrees, and 100,000 crocodiles sit firmly at the top of the food-chain.
Georgia-Eastern Europe: Adventurer Bear Grylls is in the snow-capped Caucasus Mountains in the Georgian Republic. To begin his journey, he drives a snowmobile out the back of a hovering helicopter. Bear's hunt for food turns up a rotten vulture egg. Using an old cableway, he zip-lines across a raging river and makes camp. He spends a sleepless night with only howling wolves for company. Bear trudges across the swampy wetlands of the Black Sea coast before building a reed raft and paddling to safety at an industrial port.
Extreme Desert: This week Bear shows you how to survive the Mojave Desert in a series of survival experiments. Tumbling out of a plane at 30,000 feet at minus 40 degrees, he lands on the desert floor where the temperature's 110. In searing heat Bear puts himself in the path of a hurricane force sandstorm then shows that camping in dry river bed can be the worst decision you can make, as he faces a huge flash flood; The impact sends him tumbling downstream, then shows that your reactions will never be quick enough to avoid the deadly bite of a Rattlesnake.
Disc 2
Canadian Rockies: Adventurer Bear Grylls and his team head into the Canadian Rockies to face the elements at their worst and see what they really do to the body. In Canada the team blasts a mountain, intentionally setting off a huge avalanche that will bury Bear alive in the snow. Cameras go inside the mound of snow with Bear to see what it's really like to be trapped inside and how long can he survive these suffocating conditions. But the agony doesn't end there. Bear battles hypothermia in the bone-chilling waters of a frozen lake when he swims 30 feet under a claustrophobic block of solid ice. Later Bear takes on 45 mph winds and must find shelter from the blizzard fast before frostbite sets in. Finally, even the best laid plans can go awry. Bear is airvac-ed to the hospital after a glissade at 45 mph down a snowy mountain goes horribly wrong.
Shooting Survival: Go behind the scenes of Man vs. Wild. Meet Bear's stalwart crew and follow along as they go to extremes to fearlessly -- and sometimes fumblingly -- film Bear trekking to the ends of the earth.
Fan vs. Wild: Bear takes fans into the Canadian wilderness on a life-changing adventure. Their journey begins with an unforgettable fast rope from a helicopter onto a 10,000 ft mountain peak. Their only way out is to rappel down an 80 ft sheer granite rock face. They slide through a snowfield before reaching a glacier, covered in a minefield of crevasses. Exhausted and hungry, they build a shelter and prepare and cook food bushman style. After a freezing cold night, the trio continue their journey: navigating a 300-ft waterfall, swamps, and raging glacial rivers. The fans will face their fears head on and put their hearts, backs, and stomachs to the test.
Behind the Wild: This episode is a rare glimpse of life behind the scenes in Man V Wild. Whether he's skydiving, climbing sheer cliffs or crossing shark infested waters, everywhere Bear goes a dedicated camera team follow. This episode introduces you to them and shows how they go about filming Bear surviving in the most hostile environments on Earth.

First off good job Olivia! I also share your concerns about Wow movie being a flop, not because I believe Blizz would screw it up just that that masses would not get it. I think what they could do is split it like the Lord of the Rings or the Hobbit. Actually tell the story behind all the expansions. The first movie could be about Kaelthas and Illidan. (We can skip about Molten core and even Blackwing Lair because that lore was touched on in Cataclysm). I would love to see a cinematic of Exodar crashing into Azeroth in 3d.
Second movie could be about Arthas, and 3rd movie would be about Deathwing, touching on the lore from Blackwing Lair and Oynixia, Dragonflight and Thrall and so on.
As I am writing this what I think would suit Blizzard better would be an anime like series similiar to Star Wars The Clone Wars.
If that is too much of an undertaking I think the story behind the rise and fall of Illidan would make a good movie.
About the new client I suspect that you may be on the money regarding it allowing cross-game/cross-zone chat, but I also feel that it will have an upgraded Warden (Blizzards anti-hacking program) Hacking has been strife as well as botting and regardless of Blizzards best efforts it hasn't really slowed down much. So I wouldn't be suprised that the new client would be boosting some new type of hard core security.

With Plushy out, is Dai the most likely to win this event?
Here's an article from Ice Network: http://web.icenetwork.com/news/artic...&vkey=ice_news.
This really got my attention:
At the 2006 worlds in Nagano
Oh, boy!
If they can crank up their quads? What did the Olympics and past two worlds show? LOL!Japan's contingent, including Daisuke Takahashi, who became the first Japanese man to win an Olympic figure skating medal, a bronze, in Vancouver; seventh-place finisher Nobunari Oda; and eighth-place finisher Takahiko Kozuka, will also be strong, especially if they can crank up their quads
Well, to be correct Kozuka landed a quad in his LP in Vancouver, jump which eluded him most of the time. But Oda does them only in practice and Dai never regained his since his surgery. Still, this is a powerful trio, and we could pretty much expect two of the japanese on the podium. They follow their ladies footsteps towards dominating the singles man skating. Perhaps the first ever gold in men for Japan? Let's see if that comes true.
