for Nomad Club
can I join Nomad Club?
The easiest way to join is by completing an online application form. A
temporary membership card can be printed from your computer screen. I fly occasionally, but
not very frequently, so am I unlikely to ever collect enough points for an
You should join even if you fly only once a year or every couple of years. The
membership is free and you can also earn points by using the services of our
partner companies, which means you can earn points even without
there a membership fee?
No, membership of the programme is completely free.
there any enrolment requirements?
The applicant must be over 2 years of age and must
accept the Terms and Conditions of the programme. If you apply for a child under
16 years of age you should provide your passport details at the time of
application. You will need to accept the programme rules on behalf of the
minor. Other than that, there are no conditions or requirements for membership.
submitted my application about a month ago, but have not received my membership
card yet. Is this normal?
Your membership card will be issued when you have completed your first flight with
Air Astana after registration in the programme. Please allow up to 4 weeks for
the card to reach you by mail. Please contact the Nomad Club Service Centre if
4 weeks have passed and you still have not received your card.
is the difference between a temporary membership card and a permanent
membership card?
The temporary card printed from your computer screen has the same membership
number as the permanent plastic card and fully entitles
you to earn/redem Nomad Club points. The permanent card is made of plastic and
has a magnetic strip on the back containing your encoded membership details.
registered twice by mistake and received two cards. Which one should I use?
Nomad Club rules allow only one account per individual. Please contact the Nomad
Club Service Centre. The agent will consolidate your accounts and advise you
which card to use in the future.
lost my membership card; do I need to cancel it to prevent fraud?
No. Unlike a credit card, your card cannot be used by another person. Notify
the Nomad Club Service Centre and a new card will be issued to you free of
charge. Note that subsequent replacements may incur a fee.How do I change the name
on the card and my online profile?
Name changes are only allowed for legal reasons such as marriage, divorce,
adoption, etc. Please contact the Nomad Club Service Centre for details. Note
that you will be required to present legal proof of any name change.
Nomad Club Points on Air Astana
I need to purchase my ticket from an Air Astana ticket office in order to
receive Nomad Club points?
It does not matter where you purchase your ticket – online at the Air Astana
website, at any Air Astana ticket office, or from your preferred travel agent.
If it is booked through one of the eligible booking outlets you will be
entitled to Nomad Club points.Do I need to submit my
tickets to the Nomad Club Service Centre after every flight?
No. The tracking of your flight activity is automatic, provided you have quoted
your membership number at the time of reservation and/or check-in. However, you
should retain your ticket receipts and boarding passes until the corresponding
flight activities have been posted.Why is the number of
earned points linked to booking class?
Booking class determines the type of ticket you are travelling on – the more
expensive tickets are usually more flexible. More frequent flyer points is
another benefit of a more expensive ticket. So the number of points is really
linked to the price of the ticket – generally the more expensive your ticket
the more points you will earn.Will I get points for
travel on a codeshare flight such as Almaty – Amsterdam?
Yes, as long as your ticket shows an Air Astana code on the ticket ("KC") and
is booked in one of the eligible booking classes.
I get points if I travel on an interline ticket, for example, I fly Air Astana
to Frankfurt and continue to New York
on Lufthansa?
Yes, you will get your Nomad Club points for the portion of your journey flown
on Air Astana as long as it is booked in one of the eligible booking classes.
Where can I find out
exactly how many points I will earn?
Please go to the Earning Nomad Club Point section of this website.
Nomad Club Points Using Partners
heard that Lufthansa is a partner of the Nomad Club and I can earn Nomad Club
points for flights on Lufthansa, is this true?
No. At this time Nomad Club members cannot earn points
for flying on Lufthansa or any other airline except Air Astana.
partners participate in the Nomad Club?
The current list of partners and the terms of their
participation can be found in the Partners section of this website. We will be
working to expand our partnership network to provide you with more accrual
Nomad Club Points
do I calculate the number of points required for an award?
Consult the Award Chart in the Redeeming Nomad Club Points section of this
website. Select your award travel zone based on your departure and arrival
airports and the desired type of award: economy, business, or upgrade from
economy to business. You can select one-way or roundtrip travel awards, but
upgrade awards are always one-way. Locate the number of points required in the
corresponding cell of the Award Chart.
don't have enough points for the award I want – can I purchase the "missing"
Unfortunately, at this time we don't offer this, although it may become
available in the future. For now, your quickest option to get the necessary
points is to take another Air Astana flight.
plan to take an Air Astana flight next week, after which I should have enough
points for the award I want to redeem. Can I make a booking now while there are
seats available?
No. According to the Nomad Club rules, you cannot make an award booking unless
you have the required number of points available in your account.Why can't my travel
agent issue an award ticket?
Air Astana carefully safeguards your account information. Travel agents do not have
access to the computer system which stores your points balance and therefore
cannot issue award tickets.
I can see on your
website that seats are available on the flight I would like to redeem an award
on, but when I call Air Astana I am told that there are no award seats
available. Can you tell me why?
That is quite possible. The number of seats available for Nomad Club redemption
on each flight is strictly limited. Other types of tickets have different
availability and therefore "revenue" seats may still be available, while
"award" seats are not. Your best chance to obtain the seats to your desired
destination is to travel during the off-peak season or time of day, book early,
and be flexible about your travel dates/times.Can I have an award
issued to a friend or family member?
Yes. Nomad Club does not restrict who the passenger is on an award ticket and
you can give the award ticket to a relative or a friend. However, once the
ticket has been issued, name changes are not permitted. Regardless of who the
passenger is, you will have to present your passport when collecting the award
ticket. Note that sale of award tickets is prohibited. A passenger found travelling
on a purchased award ticket will be denied transportation, while the account
from which the points have originated will be suspended.My plans have changed and
I cannot use my award ticket. Can I get a refund?
Yes. Within the validity period of your ticket you can re-deposit the points
into your account. An administrative fee of 5,000 points will be deducted.
Please note that points for expired tickets cannot be re-deposited.
Missing Points
do I ensure that I always get my points?
There are a few things you can do. First, ensure that
the ticket you are about to book is eligible for points accrual. Most types of
tickets are, but certain types of deeply discounted tickets do not earn points.
Please review the Nomad Club Terms and Conditions for complete details. Always
provide your membership number at the time of reservation and present your
membership card again at check-in to make sure that your Nomad Club number has
been properly recorded. Keep your ticket receipts and boarding passes until the
corresponding flight activities have appeared in your account.If activity tracking is
automatic why is some activity missing?
Due to current infrastructure limitations, not all airports in Kazakhstan are
equipped with automated check-in systems. There are plans to automate them in
the near future. In the meantime some activity tracking will rely on manual
processes which are not 100% error proof. In addition, there are many other
reasons beyond Air Astana's control – such as when the name on your ticket and the
name on your membership card are not the same.How often will I receive
statements from the Nomad Club?
Statements will be sent to you once every quarter if you have any activity in
your account.
there any other way to see if my points have been posted?
Yes. You can check your account activity and points balance online at the Air
Astana website. You can also call the Nomad Club
Service Centre at (7-727) 244 55 30.My flight activity has
not appeared on my account. What should I do?
Please refer to the Claim Missing Points section of this website. Note that
you can claim your points only if at least 30 days have passed from the date of
your flight.
long does it take to get the missing points credit?
Six to eight weeks.
Nomad Club
Silver and Gold
can I get a Silver (Gold) Nomad Club membership card?
You need to fulfil the criteria required for Elite membership, collecting at
least 25,000 flight points (or fly 30 segments) in a calendar year for a Silver
level and 50,000 flight points (60 segments) for Gold. If you are an Elite
member in other airline programmes, please contact the Nomad Club Service Centre
to verify if you may be eligible for a one-time complementary Elite membership.
joined the programme in March. Do I have to wait until 1 January of the next
year in order to start qualifying for the Elite membership?
The qualification year is always the calendar year which is from 1 January to
31 December. If you joined our programme in March, your qualification period
becomes a little shorter – from the joining date to 31 December.
are there two criteria for Elite membership – flight points and flown segments?
Those who usually fly long-haul will find it easier to qualify based on flight
points, while those who fly short-haul will find it easier to qualify based on
flown segments. Both types of passengers are important to us and that's why we
established two types or qualification criteria.
soon will I receive the Silver/Gold membership card after I qualify for Nomad
Club Silver/Gold membership?
You should normally get your Nomad Club Elite card by courier delivery within 2
to 4 weeks after your qualifying flight. Please contact the Nomad Club Service
Centre if 4 weeks have passed and you haven't received the card.
long after qualification will I receive my Silver/Gold benefits?
You will receive your Elite benefits from the date of qualification until the
end of the year in which you qualified, plus 14 months. For example, if you
became a Nomad Club Silver member on 28 May 2008, your Silver membership would
have been valid until the end of February of 2010. If you further qualified for
Nomad Club Gold in November (or any other month) of 2008, you would have become
a Nomad Club Gold member and received Gold benefits until the end of February
of 2010. However, in order to continue receiving your Elite benefits beyond 1
March of 2010, you would have been required to again meet the qualification
criteria during the 2009 calendar year.

The Nassau County Soil and Water Conservation District has long provided cost-effective, efficient, and valuable services to all of the people of Nassau County. Since the district opened in 1977 it has been serving residents, businesses, nonprofits, agencies, schools and municipalities with environmental expertise and assistance. Like all conservation districts throughout New York State and the nation, it is a proven public-private partnership that leverages local taxpayer dollars by bringing in funding from grants, state matching funds and other sources. Yet, Nassau County may soon become the only county in the state without a Soil and Water Conservation District. The steady decline in funding over the last four years has depleted the district's small reserves and it is in danger of closing.
Soil and Water Conservation districts are unique in their ability to work with all groups and provide service that local governments cannot provide on their own. The Nassau County SWCD enhances the local mandated stormwater program and brings innovation that government cannot provide alone; provides mandated NY State Department of Environmental Conservation-certified sediment and erosion control training for contractors and municipal officials so that our waterways are protected from stormwater runoff; designs and helps build rain gardens, which conserve freshwater and help reduce runoff; replants dunes and wetlands with appropriate plants to reduce erosion and provide habitat for birds, fish, and other animals; helps manage the farmland purchased by the county under the county environmental bond acts so that they can be preserved as the voters requested; educates school children and the general public in environmental practices; leads the way in Nassau County in the promotion of green infrastructure techniques.
Unless the county restores a sustainable funding level in the next budget, the district will be forced to close. The financial impact would be immediate. The district would be compelled to refuse a $75,000 grant and will lose out on up to $60,000 matching funds provided through the NYS Environmental Protection Fund—an outcome that makes no financial or environmental sense. Soil and Water Conservation districts are recognized as a valuable tool throughout NY State and the nation. Nassau County needs to keep this valuable resource funded.

Epic Resources List - How to Get Awesome at ArtI often get asked how to get better at drawing and painting. While the main answer is practice there are a lot of fantastic resources that will make the journey far easier; below is a list of the ones I have personally found most useful. Some are free and some are paid, if you want the paid ones please actually buy them and support the hard-working artists that spend their valuable time providing quality education.Also this is enough material to last you for, literally, years, so get one at a time, study it in detail, then once you're thoroughly finished move on to the next one. Reading a book or watching a dvd doesn't make you better. What makes you better is ingesting the information slowly, pondering and truly understanding it, and then applying it with diligent practice over a long period of time.So without further ado, here is my...EPIC RESOURCES LIST!!!Figure DrawingProko - This is probably the best education on the internet.

CEDARVILLE, Ohio – Grace's men's and women's cross country teams finished in 20th place in their respective races in the NCCAA National Championships.
The event was held at Cedarville University on Saturday with the largest field in history.
Grace's women competed in a field of 35 complete teams and were paced by Jenna McClellan in 20:20 and Tara Hamstra in 20:22.
The men raced against 39 full teams and were led by Jonathan Rex with a 65th-place showing of 27:26 and a time of 27:29 from Ben Drew.
"We didn't run our best today, but I still feel we ended the season on a good note. This was the largest field ever at this meet and probably the most talented," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "I'm looking forward to next year as our young teams continue to improve."
For the Lady Lancers, Creigh Ogle (20:48), Alexis Nelson (21:08) and Marina Ramirez (22:08) rounded out Grace's top five finishers. Megan Fast and Rachel Fehring also competed for Grace.
On the men's side, Collin Chupp (28:31), Tim Trapp (28:35) and Donovan Graham (30:45) completed Grace five fastest runners as Richie Cornett and Jamin Parker raced as well.
"I want to commend Jonathan Rex for running very well and leading our men's team. He just missed his PR and this was a much tougher course," Raymond continued. "For the women, Creigh Ogle ran her best time of the season to finish third on our team."

MARION, Ind. – Over two-thirds of Grace's runners posted season-best times on Saturday at the Crossroads League Championships.
Overall, 15 of Grace's 22 runners ran their fastest races of the year as the men's team finished in sixth place, and the women's side placed seventh.
"I'm extremely proud of both teams," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "The women and men each beat teams today who had finished in front of us earlier this year. We really peaked for this meet."
Ben Drew paced the men's team on Saturday with a 19th-place time of 26:33. His finish, which was a personal record by 35 seconds, was just four places away from earning All-League status (top 15 finishers).
Jonathan Rex (27:03) and Tim Trapp (27:37) both earned personal-best times as Grace's No. 2 and No. 3 runners respectively. Collin Chupp (27:42) was fourth for Grace, and Richie Cornett was fifth in 29:25.
Jamin Parker and Donovan Graham each posted season-best times as well.
"Ben Drew ran a fantastic race today and just missed earning All-League honors," Raymond said. "Jonathan Rex has cut about 45 seconds off his PR in the past two weeks and is coming on strong, and Tim Trapp ran the fastest race of his career and will keep getting better I think."
In the women's race, Jenna McClellan led Grace's team with a time of 19:49. She bested her previous-best time by 12 seconds and placed 29th in the process.
Freshmen Tara Hamstra (20:09) and Creigh Ogle (20:50) finished second and third for the Lady Lancers in season-best times, and Alexis Nelson was Grace's No. 4 runner in a time of 20:51.
Marina Ramirez and Rachel Fehring also posted season-best times at the meet. Ramirez was Grace's No. 5 runner, and Fehring cut more than a minute off her previous best as Grace's No. 6 runner.
Megan Gast, Allison Zylstra, Georgianne Sandlin, Alicia Hertzler and Madison Long had PR's for the Lady Lancers, and Marena Lodzinski had a season-best time as well.
"I was glad to see Jenna McClellan break the 20-minute barrier after nearly doing it several times," Raymond said. "I also have to give recognition to Marina Ramirez and Rachel Fehring. Marina ran her best race of the season, and Rachel was a pleasant surprise today."

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Both the men's and women's cross country squads for Grace finished in their fastest times of the season on Saturday at the Great Lakes Challenge.
The Lady Lancers' top four runners were just 35 seconds apart, and the men's squad finished ahead of three Crossroads League opponents in the race.
Jenna McClellan paced the Lady Lancers in a time of 20:18.30 in the 5k race, and Tara Hamstra finished one second behind her.
Alexis Nelson was third on the team in a season-best time of 20:50.51, and Creigh Ogle was not far behind in 20:53.38.
"The women's squad boasted a split of just 35 seconds between our No. 1 and No. 4 finishers," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "If we can get our fifth runner closer to that pack, we can have a very strong conference race in two weeks."
On the men's side, Ben Drew led the Lancers with an 89th-place finish out of 352 runners. Rex was second for Grace in a personal-best time of 27:25.06.
Collin Chupp finished third for Grace in 27:50.93, Tim Trapp was fourth in 28:04.74, and Richie Cornett rounded out Grace's scoring with a season-best 29:19.44.
"Our top four guys continue to run well, including a big PR today by Jonathan Rex to be our No. 2 runner," Raymond continued. "We still have some areas where we can improve, but I was pleased with our effort today."

MARION, Ind. – Grace's men's and women's cross country team both claimed third-place finishes at the Indiana Wesleyan Invitational on Saturday.
Several runners for Grace posted season-best times in a strong showing for the Lancers.
The men's team had a good pack in the top four runners as just 45 seconds separated the quartet. Ben Drew topped the Lancers with a ninth-place finish in 27:24.
Drew was followed by freshman Collin Chupp in 14th place (27:36), Tim Trapp in 20th (27:56) and Jonathan Rex in 23rd (28:09). Corban Wyatt rounded out the top five in 41st place (30:05).
"We certainly showed some improvement this week, but we still have some work to do in the next month," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "Collin [Chupp], Tim [Trapp] and Jonathan [Rex] all had season-best performances, so that's a big positive. We just need the next group of runners to move up a bit and close the gap between fourth and fifth."
The Lady Lancers ran in a difficult field with two nationally ranked teams in front of them in No. 23 Taylor and No. 26 Indiana Wesleyan. Grace had a solid pack for the top five runners.
Jenna McClellan led the way by placing 16th in 20:21. She was followed by Tara Hamstra in 25th (20:44), Creigh Ogle in 28th (20:59), Alexis Nelson in 39th (21:42) and Marina Ramirez in 41st (21:45).
"I was pleased that our top five all finished with a gap of just 1:24," Raymond continued. "Three of the top five had season-best times, as did several of our other ladies, so I'm happy for them. They've been working hard."

CHICAGO, Ill. – Grace's cross country team continued its 2012 campaign at one of the largest events of the season with the Loyola Lakefront Invitational on Saturday.
The race, which was held in a park next to Lake Michigan just north of downtown Chicago, featured at least 450 runners in both the men's and women's races.
The women's team placed 36th out of 51 teams that included a number of NCAA Division I schools. Sophomore Jenna McClellan was Grace's top finisher in a time of 20:39 for 268th place out of 514 participants.
She was followed by Tara Hamstra in 284th (20:51), Creigh Ogle in 320th (21:19), Alexis Nelson in 369th (21:57) and Megan Gast in 372nd (22:04).
"The women ran a reasonable race. We didn't have any breakout performances but also didn't have any extremely poor performances," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "I thought Alexis Nelson and Megan Gast each ran well and continue to get better. It was a very large field of runners, so it is difficult to know exactly what kind of pace you are running. I thought our young squad handled it fairly well."
On the men's side, Ben Drew was once again the top performer. He finished 190th out of 456 runners in a time of 27:37.
Collin Chupp came in 237th in 28:10, while Jonathan Rex was 265th in 28:40. Tim Trapp was the next runner for Grace in 284th (29:01), and Richie Cornett rounded out the top five in 370th (30:54).
"Other than our top two or three, the guys honestly didn't race very well. We've been working pretty hard in practice for the past two weeks, and I think it just caught up with them," Raymond explained. "I know we will be better as the season progress. They're doing the work and just need to transfer that fitness into racing."
The Lancers will run next Saturday at the IWU Wildcat Invitational in Marion, Ind.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Grace's cross country team faced a large field of competition and a difficult course at the Indiana Intercollegiates on Friday.
Freshman Tara Hamstra highlighted the day with a 36th-place showing out of 150 runners in a time of 20:19.
Ben Drew (51st place) and Jenna McClellan (61st place) just missed out on top-50 finishes for the Lancers. Drew led the men's team in a time of 27:46, and McClellan ran a 20:51.
The Lady Lancers placed 13th overall out of 18 teams, and the men finished 14th out of 19 competitors.
Creigh Ogle ran a 21:28, and Alexis Nelson and Marina Ramirez ran identical times of 22:04 for 93rd and 94th place.
On the men's side, Tim Trapp was strong in a time of 28:21, and Collin Chupp was not far behind at 28:40. Jonathan Rex finished in 29:16 for 99th place, and Corban Wyatt rounded out Grace's top five finishers in a time of 30:09.

"This was a tough course, and I think that reflected in our times today which were a little slower than last week overall," said head coach Jeff Raymond. "Ben Drew ran a decent race to lead the guys. Tim Trapp ran well, and I thought Dustin Fletcher had a good effort today. For the women, Tara Hamstra looked pretty good and was our top finisher. Creigh Ogle, Marina Ramirez and Alexis Nelson also had solid races. We've been going fairly hard for the last month. We don't have a meet next weekend, so now we have a chance to regroup and get ready for the rest of the season."
The Lancers' next meet is the Loyola Lakefront Classic on Sept. 29 in Chicago, Ill.

WINONA LAKE, Ind. – Grace hosted its only home meet of the season on Saturday with the Lancer Invitational from Miller Field.
Both the men's and women's team earned top-10 finishers, including Ben Drew for the men and Jenna McClellan for the women.
The Lady Lancers finished second out of seven teams as they topped three opponents from the Crossroads League (Goshen, Mt. Vernon Nazarene, St. Francis).
McClellan's time of 20:31 was good enough for ninth place, and freshmen Tara Hamstra (11th place, 20:35) and Creigh Ogle (13th place, 20:51) were not far behind.
Grace earned three other spots in the top 25 as Marina Ramirez, Alexis Nelson and Megan Gast finished with seconds of each other.
"With freshmen making up five of our top seven runners, I thought we had a very solid race," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "We finished in front of three other conference teams, so that's nice to see."
On the men's side, Grace finished third out of seven teams. They finished behind race winners Goshen and second-place Huntington, but they beat CL foes St. Francis and Mt. Vernon Nazarene.
Drew placed sixth in the race with a time of 27:05, and Collin Chupp ran 27:45 to grab 14th place.
Tim Trapp was third for Grace in a time of 28:40, Jonathan Rex was one second behind him in 23rd place, and Corban Wyatt rounded out Grace's top five with a time of 29:57.
"Ben [Drew] ran a very good race, hitting a new personal-best time, while Collin [Chupp] was very solid in his first collegiate 8k race," Raymond said. "We still need to close up some of the gaps we have, but overall I was pleased. It was great to have a home meet, and we were pleased with how things turned. The weather was great, and it was nice to see so many fans supporting our athletes."
The Lancers' next meet is the Indiana Intercollegiates on Sept. 14.

GOSHEN, Ind. – The Grace College cross country team competed in the Goshen College Hokum Karem on Saturday to start their 2012 season.
The dual meet between Goshen and Grace was a unique format that featured pairs of athletes alternating laps until each runner had completed his five laps.
The Lady Lancers bested the Maple Leafs by claiming three of the top five pairs. The duo of freshman Tara Hamstra and sophomore Jenna McClellan finished first overall in a total time of 38:08. Hamstra recorded the fasted individual split of the day with a time of 18:48.
Finishing third in the meet was sophomore Marina Ramirez and freshman Creigh Ogle in a time of 40:01 and close behind in fifth place was the freshman duo of Megan Gast and Allison Zylstra in 40:38.
"I was really happy with how the women ran today," said Grace head coach Jeff Raymond. "With so many freshmen on the roster, you never know how things will go the first meet, but they handled it very well. Even though there were only two teams overall, it's still nice to win."
The men's team was led by junior Ben Drew and freshman Collin Chupp, who finished fourth overall in a time of 53:11. Drew's split of 25:56 was one of the fastest individual times among all runners.
Jonathan Rex and Corban Wyatt ended in fifth place with a time of 55:12, and the third finishers for Grace was the sophomore team of Tim Trapp and Donovan Graham (58:00).
"Goshen nearly won the conference last year and has everyone back, so we knew they would be good," Raymond continued. "I hope our guys saw today how much work we need to do in order to improve. Ben Drew had a good day individually and should be our top runner as the year moves forward."
The Lancers will host their only meet of the year next Saturday with the Lancer Invitational at 10:00 a.m. at Miller Field.

WINONA LAKE, Ind. – The Grace College cross country team brings in a talented roster for the 2012 season.
Under the direction of third-year head coach Jeff Raymond, the Lancers hope to fully realize their potential for both the men's and women's squads.
"Our biggest goal for the year is to continue showing improvement, not just in our times or places, but in how hard we work and prepare," Raymond said. "In a way this is a transition year. I like what I see so far, but we'll find out more after a few races."
The men's team will lean on their strong upperclassmen presence to fill the void left by All-Conference graduates Randy Sterk and Daniel Ng. The Lancers finished sixth in the competitive Crossroads League and eighth in the NCCAA National Championships last year.
Juniors Ben Drew and Jonathan Rex ran in Grace's top five last year, and both runners will be counted on to be frontrunners in 2012.
"Drew, Rex, Dustin Fletcher and Matt Brunner are all upperclassmen, so we need them to lead by example and by performance," Raymond said. "Ben [Drew] and Jonathan [Rex] were top five runners last year and need to make the jump to being runners who can lead us on race day."
During their freshman seasons, Tim Trapp, Jamin Parker and Richie Cornett placed in Grace's top five at times. The trio, in addition to Donovan Graham, will hope for improved times and consistency in 2012.
Joining them are a pair of freshmen in Collin Chupp (Elkhart, Ind./Concord) and Corban Wyatt (Nappanee, Ind./NorthWood). Both newcomers have potential to be impact runners right away, according to Raymond.
On the women's side, Raymond faces the unique challenge of having a freshman-dominated roster. Eleven of the 14 Lady Lancers are new faces to the roster, but Raymond expects the women to be more competitive than last year.
Jenna McClellan, Marina Ramirez and Marena Lodzinski are the three returners and will be looked upon to provide leadership to a young squad.
McClellan was Grace's No. 1 runner throughout the 2011 season, placing in the top 10 in a pair of races.
"The women's main strength is our greater numbers this year. I can already see the impact of having bigger training groups and having right next to you in each practice. That alone makes everyone better," Raymond said. "The key is finding which newcomer will handle college competition the best and not be afraid to challenge themselves on race day."
According to Raymond, the incoming freshmen are led by Tara Hamstra (Kouts, Ind./Kouts), who has potential to be the team's top runner. Creigh Ogle, Allison Zylstra, Megan Gast and Alexis Nelson are just a few of the other first-year Lady Lancers who hope to contribute immediately.
The Lancers begin their season on Sept. 1 at the Goshen Hokum Karem in Goshen, Ind.

The first three of the four Op 119 Klavierstücke are exactly such Intermezzi. The opening number, in B minor, is a ravishing Adagio which Clara Schumann (the first person to whom Brahms showed most of these late pieces) characterized as 'a grey pearl'. It derives its material from a chain of falling thirds, a formula which Brahms used in many contexts. The main thematic idea is a downward arpeggio whose individual notes are sustained to form ambiguous vertical harmony, suggesting both B minor and D major, which is the focus of the very slightly contrasted central idea.
The second and third pieces both begin with rhythmic figures involving repeated notes: but whereas in the E minor Intermezzo (marked Andantino un poco agitato) this feature produces a nervous pulse-beat in dactylic rhythm, like a charming stammer, in the C major (Grazioso e giocoso) it produces a skittish 6/8 quaver motion with a nonchalant melody in the middle voice. Also, while the E minor Intermezzo evolves quite a large form, the central section transforming its main idea into an elegant E major waltz, the C major is shorter, with deft touches of humour, capriciously dissolving towards the end into fragile, rainbow-like arpeggios.
In contrast to these gentle Intermezzi the E flat Rhapsodie, Brahms's last piano piece, is cast in the heroic mould traditionally associated with its key. It has much the same virile manner we encounter in his two Op 79 Rhapsodies, but it is more compressed, creating its form with a freedom and spontaneity appropriate to its late date. As a foil to the principal tune—a muscular, pounding affair in 2/4 time with asymmetrical 'Hungarian' five-bar phrasing—it evolves a subsidiary idea of tolling repeated notes with dissonant harmonies beneath, and an echt-Brahmsian second subject in C minor with a powerful triplet rhythm. A contrasting grazioso section is almost a parody of salon style, with its harped chords and tripping grace-notes. Brahms delays the return of the main theme, presenting witty and allusive variations of it. It makes its eventual reappearance at the Rhapsody's climax, but is almost immediately deconstructed in the coda, which ends this otherwise ebullient work—and Brahms's piano output—in a stern E flat minor. This, almost certainly not by coincidence, had also been the key of his earliest published piano piece, the Op 4 Scherzo.

Its pretty relative to your current gear level, imho.
At lower ilvl´s hand may be more interesting simply because you are still struggling to keep full CTC and reasonable avoidance levels, and dont need that much damage/threat output to help dps timers or a larger health pool to survive the fights bursts. As you progress and gear through heroics or even the latter normals, you may find hiting full CTC trivial and that the higher base damage/stam as well as the healing from souldrinker is a better contribution.

It's weather whiplash in Buffalo, New York, where the temperature surged to 62°F at 11 am EST Monday, following a week of near record cold and heavy snow. The exceptional warmth would be welcome if not for the massive snowpack on the ground along a swath across the southern and eastern suburbs of Buffalo, where last week's extreme lake effect snow storm dumped up to 88" of snow at Cowlesville.
October was globally the warmest such on record according to NOAA (see Jeff Master's blog for more about this). Extreme heat waves affected southern South America and California with exceptional warmth in Europe and Australia as well. Intense rainfalls plagued southern France and Italy. Deadly flooding and mudslides occurred in Sri Lanka. A blizzard in Nepal killed at least 43 trekkers and their guides. Hurricane Gonzalo was the first CAT 4 tropical storm in three years to form in the Atlantic Basin and struck Bermuda. Typhoon Vongfong was the Earth's most powerful storm of the year.

The Pistons are officially sleeping with the enemy.
Officials announced Thursday former Bulls and Lakers coach Phil Jackson will serve as a senior consultant for the team's coaching search.
Jackson might be friends with Pistons owner Tom Gores, but he is no friend of the Pistons.
In fact, Jackson has always been smug and dismissive of the Pistons. And now he's riding into town to save the day?
This is basically a slap in the face of team president Joe Dumars.
Does Gores even have faith Dumars can hire the right coach?
Obviously not.
The bitter rivalry
Here's what's wrong with Jackson.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the Pistons and Bulls provided fans with an intense and bitter rivalry.The Bad Boy Pistons were the champs at the end of the 1980s, and the Bulls were up-and-coming.
The rivalry hit its peak during the 1991 Eastern Conference finals, when the Bulls destroyed the Pistons.
With Game 4 winding down, and a Bulls sweep in effect, the Pistons walked off the court in the waning seconds, refusing to shake hands with Chicago.
They walked out because Michael Jordan said the Pistons were bad champions and bad for basketball.
They walked out because they believed they were disrespected by the Bulls.
And by Jackson most of all.
Setting aside the history, however, what are truly Jackson's qualifications?
Sure, he's a great motivator of men, but Jackson never has hired a coach.
He's been a coach, and won 11 NBA titles (although he didn't win one without having a great player leading the way — Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant).
His main qualification is …
He's a friend of Gores.
Jackson will end up doing what most people do: He will push one of his coaches up front.
That's why Brian Shaw, who played for and was an assistant under Jackson, went from dark horse to front-runner for the Pistons job.
Dumars should leave
So in the end, what does this say about Dumars?
He wanted to hire Avery Johnson, but had to settle for John Kuester.
He didn't want Lawrence Frank, but had to deal with him.
Now, he will be "advised" by Jackson on whom the Pistons should hire as coach.
Doesn't seem like Dumars has any presidential power, does it? It's amazing Dumars even wants to put up with this mess.
So, here's one piece of advice for Dumars: Get out now.
The Pistons are officially a mockery.
(313) 222-1494
Here are Phil Jackson's qualifications to help hire the next Pistons coach: He's never hired a coach and he is Gores' friend. / Robin Buckson/Detroit News

PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL Finance & G.P.C. 9/2.
20th February, 1939.
It will be remembered that when the Finance and General Purposes Committee were giving consideration to the Blackpool Congress resolution on arms for Spain it was recommended that a circular should be sent to affiliated Unions drawing their attention to the five proposals put forward at Congress regarding aid for Spain and asking what steps they had taken or proposed to take to implement these suggestions. This recommendation was accepted by the General Council who also decided that enquiry should be made as to the extent of Union grants to funds other than the International Solidarity Fund. A circular was sent to all affiliated Unions on 30th November, 1938.
To date 55 Unions have replied. The attached forms give the names of these Unions; the amounts subscribed since the issuing of the circular, the amounts subscribed from 1933-36; the amounts donated from 1936 (when the Fund for Spain was opened) to December 1938, contributions made to Internationals and other bodies, the total of the contributions made, and information as to steps which have been, or are proposed to be taken to raise further funds, and a list of Unions who have sent in donations since the issuing of the circular of 30th November, but have not replied to questions.

26k health is kind of low I think. Also the exp soft cap is 26, so you could drop that a bit to get some extra stam. You might be fine with 26k but I like a bit more time to hit my ohh crap button. I don't think I would use hit/exp gems, I might do hit/stam and exp/stam gems.
I am certainly not skilled/knowledgeble to be a mt yet so don't take my word for it.

Rachmaninov: Piano Trios
CDH55431 Helios (Hyperion's budget label)
Movement 1: Moderato
Movement 2: Quasi variazione
Movement 3: Allegro risoluto
Like the rest of the musical world, Rachmaninov was deeply shocked and distressed at this news. On the evening of Tchaikovsky's death he began a second Trio élégiaque to the memory of the master, completing it on 15 December. It is difficult to remain unimpressed by this work. It is true that the piano part is florid and very difficult (at one point, towards the end of the first movement, it erupts into a quasi-cadenza), and is clearly far more important than those of the stringed instruments. The finale is possibly too short to balance the large dimensions of the first two movements—but what passion and genuine depth of feeling are contained within this work! Rachmaninov's Op 9, dedicated 'To the memory of a great artist', is as worthy a memorial to Tchaikovsky as Tchaikovsky's A minor Piano Trio Op 50 was to Nikolai Rubinstein in 1881. The connections between these memorial trios run deeper; structurally, Rachmaninov's work is strongly based on Tchaikovsky's—to the extent of having a set of variations as the second movement, and the thematic likeness of both variation themes implies that Rachmaninov based his on Tchaikovsky's.
The first movement of Rachmaninov's D minor Trio élégiaque would seem, structurally, to be modelled to some degree on his earlier G minor work, but with a greater level of accomplishment. Thus a broad outline of sonata structure can be discerned, but here the material is even more homogeneous, and the manner by which the introductory lament is restated and expanded, leading to a wealth of material which appears to be a succession of closely inter-related variations, and the strict manner in which this is recapitulated—alongside the subtle tonal relationships of the movement—show this music to be Rachmaninov's greatest large-scale achievement up to then.
As noted earlier, variation form is the basis of the second movement, and here the piano assumes possibly greater importance than in the first movement. The piano alone announces the long theme on which the 'quasi variations' are based, and the piano also has a long solo variation (the second). However, the eight variations (not so numbered by the composer) are both extensive and quite wide-ranging, although the string writing is such as to place these instruments very much in the musical background.
The finale is quite short and structurally simple. Once again the piano predominates, and begins with a strongly Tchaikovskian idea which dominates the first half of the movement. This builds to a climax, after which the opening lament of the first movement is alluded to before finally reappearing in full, its chromatically descending phrase bringing the Trio élégiaque full circle. The end of the work is restrained to cello and piano. The violin is absent.
In the original version of the Trio, Rachmaninov called for a harmonium in the second movement. Such is the writing for this instrument that it is virtually impossible for the pianist to play the harmonium as well as the piano. Thus this original version must be the only instance in a piano trio when four instruments, and four players, are required! In 1907 Rachmaninov published a revised edition in which the harmonium is dispensed with and other changes are made, the most important being a new variation in the second movement to replace another discarded solo piano variation. For another performance in 1917, Rachmaninov made several other important changes—principally in cutting quite a few bars to tighten the structure.
The original version of the Trio élégiaque was first performed in Moscow on 31 January 1894, in an all-Rachmaninov programme given by the composer with Brandukov and Julius Conus. This also included the Op 2 pieces for cello and piano, the Op 6 pieces (which may have been their public première), and Rachmaninov playing his Op 3 complete and his new Op 10 Morceaux de salon, together with some songs (presumably from Opp 4 and 8).

A broad mass of cloud with embedded thunderstorms lies over large parts of northern Australia and extends in a band from the northwest of Queensland to the far northeast of NSW. This cloud is associated with areas of low pressure over the north and a surface trough over inland parts of Queensland.
Cloud associated with a trough over the Bight is approaching coastal areas of South Australia from the west. Some patchy low-level cloud can also be seen over mostly coastal parts of the Southwest Land Division of WA within a moist onshore airflow.

We fell for Michelle Williams in the late nineties when she played troubled teen Jen, alongside Katie Holmes, in teen series Dawson's Creek but who could have predicted the triumphant career that lay ahead? That's three Oscar nominations to date for the low-key actress, who has favored indie flicks over blockbusters for her parts in Brokeback Mountain, Blue Valentine and My Week with Marilyn. The latter, one of the most stylish and brilliant films of 2011 (which won Michelle a Golden Globe and saw the American actress transform herself into iconic Hollywood bombshell Marilyn Monroe), really got the fashion world talking and whilst under the glare of the fashion spotlight Michelle wowed at the press junkets and premieres in Christian Dior, Victoria, Victoria Beckham and Louis Vuitton.
Michelle's quiet style is anything but boring and she's nailed her chic, quirky look that translates seamlessly from the New York sidewalk (where she can be seen out and about with her seven-year-old daughter) to the red carpet. Michelle's blonde elfin hairdo sets the tone for her cute style that lends itself brilliantly to both uber-feminine looks, like the red lace Valentino gown Michelle wore to the Screen Actors Guild Awards, and preppy boyish tailoring as seen on Michelle at the film world's Independent Spirit Awards where she donned Louis Vuitton, alike.
Carefully considered accessories, like a simple diamond necklace and Michelle's penchant for a neat box clutch, complement rather than dominate her outfits. And her pint-sized proportions mean that Michelle can pull off a plunging neckline and prim and proper crew-neck silhouettes with equal ease, but,more than a clotheshorse, Michelle's unique, discreetly glamorous look is the result of her individual flare. Hey, anyone who is not only brave enough to wear H&M on the red carpet but manages to make it look a million dollars too gets a big, big-up from us!
