HERNDON, Va. — Volkswagen of America announced this week that a Chattanooga-produced Passat TDI Clean Diesel car had set a new Guinness World Records achievement in the "lowest fuel consumption — 48 U.S. states for a non-hybrid car" category.
The car reached a gas mileage rate of 77.99 mpg — more than 10 mpg better than the previous record of 67.9 mpg. It also beat the hybrid vehicle record of 64.6 mpg by more than 13 mpg.
It departed from Volkswagen of America's headquarters in Herndon on Friday, June 7, and arrived back on June 24, having covered 8,122 miles and visited all 48 contiguous states.
The car and its drivers, Wayne Gerdes and Bob Winger, were greeted in Herndon by Volkswagen employees as well as Virginia state delegates Tom Rust and Jim LeMunyon.
"Breaking a world record is a huge accomplishment, and I'm especially pleased that Volkswagen of America ... is doing its part to make its products more environmentally compatible and less dependent on foreign oil by using cutting-edge diesel technology," Rust said.
Jonathan Browning, president and CEO of Volkswagen Group of America, said covering the 8,122 miles on 104.94 gallons of fuel was "nothing short of astonishing" and showed "just how economical" the company's vehicles could be.
Browning added that the company had been producing at least six TDI Clean Diesel models that achieve an EPA estimated fuel economy rating of 40 mpg or better on the highway.
Gerdes, founder of the website CleanMPG.com was the primary driver. An automotive journalist, Gerdes has made a career out of "hypermiling" and has set mileage records in more than 100 vehicles, as well as achieving the record for lowest fuel consumption in the lower 48 U.S. states with a hybrid vehicle at 64.6 mpg. His co-driver was Winger, an electronics engineer long involved in energy and conservation projects.
"We felt we had a good chance of beating the existing record with the Passat TDI," Gerdes said, "But to smash it by averaging 77.99 mpg is really impressive and a testament to the potential of Volkswagen's TDI Clean Diesel vehicles. Obviously, we employ some specialized techniques to achieve such figures, but there's no reason why owners of TDI vehicles shouldn't be able to achieve great mileage with a few simple pointers."
Gerdes suggested average drivers plan in advance by looking for obstacles or changes in topography instead of having to react unusually quickly, and using downhill momentum to help climb hills. Slowing down at intersections so a driver does not have to brake suddenly and obeying speed limits could also help maintain good fuel economy, he said.
The 2013 Passat TDI uses Volkswagen's advanced direct-injection Clean Diesel engine to achieve EPA estimated highway fuel economy of 43 miles per gallon when equipped with the six-speed manual transmission. The company has claimed that this enables the Passat TDI to go up to 795 highway miles before needing to refuel.
For the world record attempt, the drivers fueled the Passat with Shell ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel, available at nearly 8,000 Shell stations nationwide, and Continental PureContact with EcoPlus Technology tires, which have Tg-F polymers to help reduce rolling resistance and improve fuel efficiency. The record-setting Passat TDI was equipped with a Linear Logic ScanGauge II to precisely measure fuel economy and a Droid RAZR MAX HD by Motorola smartphone to provide Guinness World Records tracking requirements and long-lasting connectivity.
The 2013 Passat TDI Clean Diesel (manual transmission) vehicle was given EPA estimates of 31 mpg in the city and 43 mpg on the highway. Actual mileage will vary and depends on several factors including driving habits and vehicle condition, the company said.
Founded in 1955, Volkswagen of America, Inc., an operating unit of Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. is a subsidiary of Volkswagen AG, headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany. The company's operations in the United States include research and development, parts and vehicle processing, parts distribution centers, sales, marketing and service offices, financial service centers and the manufacturing facility in Chattanooga. Volkswagen of America sells the Beetle, Beetle Convertible, Eos, Golf, Golf R, GTI, Jetta, Jetta SportWagen, Passat, CC, Tiguan, Touareg, and Routan vehicles through approximately 600 independent U.S. dealers.

Fireworks Over Toccoa is a book that I couldn't put down. They compared Jeffrey Stepakoff to Nicholas Sparks and they were so right. I love me some Nicholas Sparks so I knew I would enjoy this book.
I was intrigued by Jake Russo, an Italian American, who fought in WWII while his own father was being kept in an interment camp back in America. There's a great flashback scene where Jake is talking to his father through the gate of the interment camp he's being kept in. He's confused and asks his father how can he fight for this country who is keeping his father - who has never caused no harm to anyone - locked up? I'm glad that this subject was brought up in this book. Interment camps are often overlooked in American history. And Italian interment camps are something that the government has barely acknowledged even happened.

Some colon cleanser products work faster than others. The Colon Cleansing Kit™ and Internal Cleansing Kit™ both begin with a pre-cleanse period, where you determine "your number" of all-natural Digestive Stimulator™ capsules to take in order to ensure several easy, comfortable bowel movements per day. So in this sense, Blessed Herbs cleanses begin to work as soon as you've found "your number".
The actual process of drawing, absorbing and removing toxins from your colon and your body requires the ingestion of the Toxin Absorber™ formula – also a mainstay of both the Colon Cleansing Kit™ and the Internal Cleansing Kit™. So in this sense, our colon cleansing kits begin drawing and eliminating toxins from your body as soon as you begin taking the Toxin Absorber™ formula.
And as far as actual benefits of renewed energy, sense of vigor, healthy digestion, and better absorption of vitamins, minerals and nutrients from the food we eat, these benefits will become apparent soon after you've completed your cleanse.
Contact us if you have any other questions about our colon cleansing kit.

Discover Ministry Briefing! --> The Best Way To Keep "In The Know"!
From the Christian Post:
"We've reached a point where human dignity and mutual respect is so important," Haggard said in a recent online debate with Rabbi Benjamin Hecht, director of Orthodox Jewish think tank Nishma.
Responding to the question, "Should same-sex marriage be allowed by the state?" he went on to say, "If someone is dealing with same-sex attraction or homosexuality, and they want someone to be their life partner of the same gender, though we would oppose that in our churches, it should be allowed by the state."
So… what do YOU think… is Haggard right or wrong on this?
Do you generally think that all things non-biblical should be illegal? Isn't that the question he's trying to raise here?
Would love to hear your comments.
It's a great statement and I'm glad to hear it from an evangelical voice. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that he's the right source to be taken seriously given his recent history… or maybe that makes him *more* valid (??)
Like Ryan, I'm not sure that he has a ton of credibility on this issue. That said, I completely agree with him. I will defend the right of any church not to perform/recognize gay marriages in their church, but approaching it strictly as a state issue, I see no reason whatsoever why it shouldn't be legal. This is why we have a separation of church and state.
This is getting tedious now.
We are not opposed to SSM because it's "non-Biblical". Fornication is non-Biblical but not illegal. Dishonouring your parents is non-Biblical but not illegal.
Marriage isn't the preserve of Biblical christianity. It is, and has been, practiced by every culture & creed since time immemorial. And whilst it may have taken different forms across those cultures & creeds the thing that has remained constant is it's primary purpose of providing the environment where procreation takes place and the next generation are raised, nurtured & socialised. That is the reason the state has always had a stake in it, because of it's importance to the next generation; because marriage produces the best (and cheapest) environment in which to raise the next generation of productive citizens.
Ted has fallen into the trap of thinking that since marriage consists of love & commitment, every relationship that contains love & commitment can be a marriage.
I agree. You cannot legislate morality. It doesn't work and it's not the job of the government. America's law of the land is the Constitution not the Bible. While that may sound heretical it's a fact. If the church doesn't like homosexuality than they should present their case and allow the chips to fall where they may. Work toward open discussion not imposing our will and agenda on people. That won't bring them to Christ, it will only push them away.
When government says that it is wrong to kill, steal, slander, libel, etc, they are legislating morality. The Constitution was based on Judea Christian values.
I believe the government's job is to promote a civil and stable environment for its citizens to live within. Legality should not be confused with morality; sometimes they run parallel to one another and sometimes they conflict. Morality tends to align well with what allows people to flourish as a society. The state should not prevent gay marriage for religious reasons, but it should most definitely deny gay marriage for civil and social reasons.
It's shocking to me that Christians will say that it doesn't matter if a law is immoral. So killing of missionaries in Islamic countries is fine?…as long as its legal in those countries?
The problem with legalising gay marriage is that God's wrath is going to be poured on the land. We scoff at God's rule…even as Christians. That's sad.
Please do not confuse my statement on the role of government with saying if a law is immoral it doesn't matter. The government is to be run by the people, a Christian people will work to create a moral government. Morality is not created by the government.
My first thought: who in the world would listen to Ted Haggard on any issue? Secondly, I think Paul has explained the postion very well. If the church separates issues of morality and social/civil government, then what voice does the church have? Is the church not to seek after God's righteousness? Is the church to be salt and light? When we give in to social expediency, the society is molding the church in its image, and not the other way around.
Should incest be legal? Should a man be allowed to marry a young girl(or boy)? Why would we separate morality from legality?
This is a tough question, but in response to Shawn Wilson all laws reflect someone's morality. In essence the government says that it is wrong and illegal to damage a person's property and that it is wrong or illegal to sexually abuse someone, et cetera. The question is whose morality should inform the public sector. Do we believe that God gave us His laws arbitrarily or is these a reason for them such as living a better life, promoting public welfare, and preserving the institution of the family? I am afraid that we are retreating from these issues because some Christians have been so hateful as well as embarrassingly ignorant. Plus, many of us have been bullied by extremists that label those with differing views as hateful, homophobic, and out of touch. The Church is called to be salt and light in a world that is corrupt and in darkness.
In a religiously neutral government, a law forbidding someone's freedom has to show that that activity is actually harmful, not just that some, or even many consider it immoral. Almost everyone considers killing adults to be actively harmful, so it is against the law. Most people in the US no longer think homosexual relationships are harmful. People can still consider them immoral, of course, and abstain.
Since the biblical words are, "Render to Caesar that which is his and unto God what is God's…" The case for separation of church and state has been made. Christian values can be lived. Hi-jacking the government in what is a pluralistic society isn't biblical. Marriage is biblical. Marriage is also civil in order to collect taxes and to create legal succession. Legalizing gay marriage is a good way to increase the tax base. I support Ted Haggard and Ryan.
re: the comment that morality cannot be legislated – and that it never works:
That's an old cliche that's floated around long enough w/out challenge.
The most basic definition of "law" is codified morality.
Virtually every law expresses morality. Some are more explicit, others reflect morality of an underlying tenet.
The question has never been one of WHETHER we legislate morality, but WHOSE morality.
A more basic question is how does a Judeo-Christian morality find expression as it loses its dominate sway over a given culture and increasingly participates as one of several conflicting voices seeking to shape the common and accepted moral stances in the momentary and evolving experience of "cultural norms".
The 10 Commandments were not suggestions. The BIBLE is our "Owner's Manual" Our country is "One Nation under GOD! A handful of people said it was ok to kill "murder" unborn babies… it was an outrage then, but the church did nothing. It was a handful of people that got prayer taken out of schools and the church did nothing… It is time for the Church to stand up and say "enough is enough" Bottom line in any situation is what does the BIBLE say? "If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them . . . . If a man mates with an animal, he shall surely be put to death, and you shall kill the animal. If a woman approaches any animal and mates with it, you shall kill the woman and the animal. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood is upon them." (Leviticus 20:13, 15-16) Can you see what's next if we continue to lower or morals?
I could be missing something here I suppose but isn't sin sin no matter if it's church or state. If God's word says it's sin, case closed.
I think we need to remind ourselves that far as i can recall nearly every Emperor of the Roman Empire was involved in some sort of homosexuality but the early church wasn't affected by the morals or lack of morals by the ruling Govt of the day even though it wasn't a democracy. They just went about sharing the Gospel healing the sick, casting out demons, ministering to the poor. The church flourished in a pagan society. The church will thrive in America regardless what laws the Govt passes or don't pass. We just need to be ready to give our testimony in season and out of season what we believe and what we value and what we regard as sin without heaping condemnation on people. As someone once said. if are that strong against something instead of attacking them and protesting, just witness to them to them about the love of Jesus and lead them to him.
If we want to redefine marriage, where does it end up? Polygamists could/do use the same argument as gay marriage and if the criteria is loving each other, then they should have the same right. What about "incest between consenting adults?" Same argument. What about someone who wants to marry his/her pet? Then what really is marriage?

Chyron debuts platform for social TV and second screen
Get ready for more social media integration on air, especially in local TV. Chyron is a staple in the TV industry for generating on-screen graphics, and today the company announced "Engage," its platform for integrating second screen, social media, and social TV data into live TV broadcasts.
"By building these technologies into the TV production workflow, Engage gives artists and producers the means to take content such as Twitter feeds, polls, text messages, and other viewer-generated data to air within their live broadcasts," explains Michael Wellesley-Wesley, president and CEO at Chyron.
To bring it all together, Chyron said it's partnered with ConnecTV for its companion app polling technology, Never.no for its social TV platform, Mass Relevance for its real-time curation and Vibes for its text, Twitter and web voting technology.
Earlier this month, Never.no teamed up with TV graphics firm Vizrt to incorporate social media and audience participation into on-air graphics. It's safe to predict these partnership deals will spur more social media integration in live newscasts and sporting events, especially at the local market level.

About Lake Charles crime rates
With a crime rate of 54 per one thousand residents, Lake Charles has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 19. Within Louisiana, more than 87% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Lake Charles.
Importantly, when you compare Lake Charles to other communities of similar population, then Lake Charles crime rate (violent and property crimes combined) is quite a bit higher than average. Regardless of how Lake Charles does relative to all communities in America of all sizes, when NeighborhoodScout compared it to communities of similar population size, its crime rate per thousand residents stands out as higher than most.
The crime data that NeighborhoodScout used for this analysis are the seven offenses from the uniform crime reports, collected by the FBI from 17,000 local law enforcement agencies, and include both violent and property crimes, combined.
Now let us turn to take a look at how Lake Charles does for violent crimes specifically, and then how it does for property crimes. This is important because the overall crime rate can be further illuminated by understanding if violent crime or property crimes (or both) are the major contributors to the general rate of crime in Lake Charles.
For Lake Charles, we found that the violent crime rate is one of the highest in the nation, across communities of all sizes (both large and small). Violent offenses tracked included forcible rape, murder and non-negligent manslaughter, armed robbery, and aggravated assault, including assault with a deadly weapon. According to NeighborhoodScout's analysis of FBI reported crime data, your chance of becoming a victim of one of these crimes in Lake Charles is one in 156.
In addition, NeighborhoodScout found that a lot of the crime that takes place in Lake Charles is property crime. Property crimes that are tracked for this analysis are burglary, larceny over fifty dollars, motor vehicle theft, and arson. In Lake Charles, your chance of becoming a victim of a property crime is one in 21, which is a rate of 47 per one thousand population.
Importantly, we found that Lake Charles has one of the highest rates of motor vehicle theft in the nation according to our analysis of FBI crime data. This is compared to communities of all sizes, from the smallest to the largest. In fact, your chance of getting your car stolen if you live in Lake Charles is one in 391.

This is a great screen protector that I highly recommend. As long as you follow the instructions when placing on your iPad, you shouldn't have any problems.
I bought this item to replace the mirror finish screen protector, which I found distracting. This is a good product, which I can recommend.
Good basic, anti-glare, screen protector for Apple iPad Mini. As easy to install as any other product. Price on Overstock (vs. retail stores) makes this an excellent buy and value. Would buy again.
Very easy to apply. Protects the screen well and can be wiped down.
Have purchased in the store and also here. Don't throw your money away. Overstock covers are the same. Great price,
it does want it says it does and I'm happy with it
Could not get this to stick to the screen. Friend recommended adding some leftover zagg spray to it, and even that didn't work. Threw it away, went to the Mall and got the professional level shield... Cost 30, but it stays put.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Voters began casting their ballots for the August 2 state primary and county general elections as soon as Friday.
"The flexibility of early voting gives Tennesseans one less reason not to exercise their right to vote," said Secretary of State Tre Hargett. "Early voting has proven to be quite popular, and I am hopeful that voters will continue to take advantage of the opportunity."
The Secretary of State's office is reminding voters that whether they vote early or on election they will need photo identification when voting in person.
Examples of acceptable forms of ID, whether current or expired, include driver licenses, U.S. passports, Department of Safety photo ID cards, U.S. military photo IDs and other state or federal government photo ID cards. College student IDs are not acceptable.

MegaUpload Fights Back Against MPAA and RIAA Propaganda
by Enigmax
As the Internet's cyberlocker companies come under sustained verbal attack from Hollywood and the music industry, the major players are fighting back. By retaining Google's lobbying company, leading file-hoster RapidShare has clearly signalled its intent not to go quietly and now its number one competitor, MegaUpload, has responded to what it calls MPAA and RIAA propaganda.
If during 2009 and 2010 the world's leading cyberlocker companies were feeling the heat, the signs are that 2011 will be a few degrees hotter still. While business is booming, competition is fierce, and more and more companies are looking to get involved in this rapidly expanding but sometimes controversial market.
earlier this week, in traffic terms the number of one-click hosting sites that are now larger than the mighty Pirate Bay – and above them in the Internet's top 100 sites – has grown to five.
While Hotfile, 4Shared, Mediafire are all significant players on the world stage, market leaders RapidShare and MegaUpload are the companies at the sharp end of accusatory finger-pointing by Hollywood and the music industry.
Now, following on the heels of RapidShare's
, here comes MegaUpload countering what it describes as "grotesquely overblown allegations" of mass copyright infringement.
"We provide connectivity between end users and storage capacity in the cloud, but no content – just like e.g. ADSL providers and hard drive vendors," the company said in a statement emailed to TorrentFreak. "As a matter of fact, most public Internet services, including backbone carriers, could not exist if the law did not protect them from liability for abuse committed by their users, as long as they fulfill specific requirements, such as the timely processing of abuse notices."
MegaUpload is a "dual-use tool" comparable to an email account or a USB stick, the company says, and as such can be put to both non-infringing and infringing uses. In dealing with illicit content, MegaUpload says that violations of its terms and conditions are not tolerated and the company abides by the DMCA and quickly processes takedown requests.
Like competitor RapidShare, MegaUpload says that it too goes one step further to accommodate those seeking to remove infringing content from its servers.
"We also cooperate closely with rightsholders and their copyright enforcement agents and provide them with direct realtime takedown access, bypassing the DMCA process entirely. Because we strictly conform to all legal requirements, nobody has ever sued us over copyright infringement, and cases brought forward against our competitors have a long history of being unsuccessful," the company notes.
MegaUpload also provides some very impressive stats. The company says that not only does it have more than 100 million registered users and in excess of 45 million unique visitors every day, but that employees at more than 70% of the world's Fortune 500 companies are account holders. It adds that given these numbers, it is unfortunate that the actions of a small group of "black sheep" (aka copyright infringers) can overshadow those of the millions of customers who use their site legitimately every day.
"We have become the de-facto standard for sending files that are too big to email. We are the most popular hard disk in the cloud. We host more backups than any other company. If Mega is a rogue operator as we have been unfairly labelled by the MPAA and RIAA, then what about Google? What about Yahoo? And every single ISP?"
Yesterday, after reading a report by brand protection company MarkMonitor which labelled them as a "leading digital piracy site", RapidShare
threatened to sue
for defamation. Google-owned YouTube, apparently due to their takedown policies (which don't appear to be any more comprehensive), were not included on the list. Today, MegaUpload questioned why it too should be labelled a "rogue site" when Google "probably hosts the world's largest index of pirated content."
MegaUpload concludes with a statement that the vast majority of its traffic is legitimate and that their company is here to stay. It also holds out an olive branch.
"If the content industry would like to take advantage of our popularity, we are happy to enter into a dialogue. We have some good ideas. Please get in touch."

Guest Editorial
Improving Life and the Environment
by Geraud Darnis, chairman of the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute
According to a poll conducted by The Henry Ford Foundation in Dearborn, MI, U.S. and America Online, the top innovation during the last 75 years that most influenced American life was air-conditioning. This poll of more than 2.5 million people demonstrates the impact that our industry continues to have on the way people live and work.
About the Author - Geraud Darnis is president of Carrier Corporation, a leading manufacturer of HVAC/R equipment. Mr. Darnis also serves as chairman of the board of the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI), the North American national trade association representing manufacturers of air-conditioning and commercial refrigeration equipment.
Not only do we improve personal comfort in homes and the workplace, our products are important factors in productivity improvements, health care, food preservation, historical conservation, and high technology development such as the manufacturing of microchips. Hospitals rely on air-conditioning and refrigeration to offer 24-hr surgical suites, medicines, and vaccines. Fresh and frozen foods are transported great distances any time of the year, thanks to the products of our industry.
The members of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) have a significant track record for caring about improving life and the environment, such as supporting responsible use principles for the containment of refrigerants through proper training of personnel, comprehensive inspections, and rigorous enforcement. Our objective is to reduce refrigerant emissions as we help conserve energy and limit the resulting carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. Our industry can cite an outstanding record on improving energy efficiency and protecting the environment that will get even better.
ARI members are working closely with the European Partnership for Energy and the Environment (EPEE), a broad-based group active in the European air-conditioning, heat pump, and refrigeration industry, as its members explain to European regulators that they should not limit refrigerant choice and risk losing environmental gains that come from choosing the appropriate refrigerant for a specific application.
According to predictions from the U.S. Department of Energy, the new 13 SEER minimum efficiency level in 2006 will save consumers U.S. $1 billion over 25 years and result in cumulative greenhouse gas emission reductions equal to that produced by approximately 3 million cars every year. Additionally, air pollution will be reduced by the elimination of approximately 94,000 metric tons of nitrous oxide between 2006 and 2020.
However, in adapting to this new minimum efficiency level, we face challenges. We need to work together to support proper sizing and matching of coils as the industry replaces tens of millions of existing residential central air-conditioners and heat pumps. Much of this will depend on technicians in the field. As an industry, we must work to support sizing guidelines from the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) and certification of technicians by the North American Technician Excellence (NATE).
I also urge you to support the Clifford H. "Ted" Rees Scholarship Foundation, which promotes HVAC/R careers by providing training scholarships to talented students. This year the scholarship program launched a multi-million dollar capital campaign to help us meet our goal of recruiting the best and brightest to our industry.
Please help us make this campaign a success. By visiting www.reesscholarship.org, you can learn more about this scholarship program and download a donation form. Donations to the Rees Foundation are an investment in the future of our industry, which will pay dividends for decades by bringing us better trained and motivated technicians.
Regardless of how far we've come, there is still much to be done to improve the life and the environment of people around the world, and you can count on ARI to continue its contributing role.

Freedom to Read Week (February 26th - March 3rd) starts today and we are doing several things to celebrate including selecting the winners of the Who Chooses What You Read? contest.We would like to invite you to attend the annual event where we honour the Freedom of Expression Award winners, and highlight the teen winners of the Who Chooses What You Read? contest. In addition, there will be a reading from The Hunger Games which was selected as a representative challenged book, and will be presented to City Council during Freedom to Read week at the regular council meeting.Join us Thursday March 1, 20127 p.m @Owls Nest Books815A 49 Avenue SouthwestCalgary, AB T2S 1G8, Canada(403) 287-9557
The Freedom to Read Committee has selected twin brothers Keith and Steven Pridgen as the 2012 recipients of the Freedom of Expression Award. Anne Jayne, the citizen member of the FTR committee writes the following to support the nomination made by Susan Anderson,"The nomination of the Pridgen brothers is worthy. They were quite brave, as young university students, to take on the university over the issue of being disciplined for having a Facebook page where comments critical of a faculty member were published. Their case was recently heard at the Queen's Bench, ruling in favour of the Pridgen's. It is their attention to standing up for their freedom of expression, engaging the university in a formal way and drawing light to the University of Calgary student disciplinary practices."
Keith and Steven Pridgen are delighted with this news. Fortunately, Keith has recently returned to Calgary and will be available to accept it from a representative of FFWD magazine, the award sponsor. The Freedom to Read committee is especially pleased to draw attention to the efforts made by these younger citizens and the use of social media to express personal opinions.
At Central we also have a book display in both our Teen and Children's zones showcasing books that have been banned by various groups at various times for various reasons. Interested in learning more? Click this link for Censorship in Canada, click here for the most recent list of challenged books; and here is a list by Google.We issue a challenge: pick a book to read this week in honor of freedom of expression. Let us know what you're reading in the comments section. We might just add it to our banned books list!
Additionally, the art show up in the TEENZONE (2nd Floor Central) by students of Sir John Franklin High School is called SPEAK and is a great showcase of photographs by fellow teens dealing with issues around freedom of expression. SPEAK runs alongside the city wide EXPOSURE 2012 photography festival.Last but not least, our Freedom to Read Contest winners have been picked! Stay tuned for announcements...

Are you as scared of shopping as I am? Perhaps it's something about malls (I feel too small in them), or the over eager sales representative that seems a little too enthusiastic to ask me about my clothing size. If you're not my friend I am not going to tell you. Seriously. Whatever it is, I love clothes, don't get me wrong, but am a little timid when it comes to setting foot into a store to look for new costumes with which to adorn myself.
Enter the much anticipated event called the Prom Dress Extravaganza…it's got to do with dresses and it's got nothing to do with the mall!
But speaking of which, even if you love the mall, you may not find what you're looking for if you limit yourself. Nor will you find your own style if you copy a mannequin. So, even if you love shopping, you should come check it out.
Some of my best dresses are what is known as "pre-loved." Actually, some of my best clothes in general are clothes that I have traded, or swapped, with my friends. This program lets you do just that – swap clothes, or just simply add some style to any new or used dress. A designer is going to be there to help you find your own new chic creative way of reinventing a dress. Not to mention that you will get to take a dress home – there will be many dresses, in many colours, and you could end up with the dress of your dreams.
It's happening at both the Bowness and Village Square libraries. You do need to register, which you can do easily with your library card – natch! The link and the dates are as follows: Bowness, Saturday March 3rd from 1-2:30pm, and at Village Square on Saturday March 10th from, 1:30-3pm. To register, follow the link: http://calgarypubliclibrary.com/services/programs-events/register-for-programs?ad=s&dt=s&lc=s&pt=s&kw=prom%20dresses&pg=1
There are only four kinds of people in this world.
Okay, that's not true. There are a million kinds of people in this world. But on Valentine's Day, there are really only four:
- People who are alone and wish they weren't
- People who are alone and are glad they are
- People who have someone and are glad they do
- People who have someone and wish they didn't
When you break that down even further, only 50% of people are happy with their relationship status, and the other half are hoping and waiting for something else, something better. Valentine's Day is the painfully glaring reminder of all this. The one day (oh... and two weeks prior to... and several days after...), where we have everything we're supposed to want or have shoved right at our consumery faces. But some people don't want a romantic relationship. And some people are in them and don't need one day to celebrate 365 days of love. And the people who don't have what they want and aren't happy with life need self-empowerment to achieve their goals, not a 'holiday' reminding them of everything they don't have.
Far be it from me to single-handedly revolutionize this day. I'm not saying anything new and the holiday is clearly not going anywhere.
Instead, here are some ways to celebrate the day (in a Carpe Diem way, not in a spend $170.00 kind of way), no matter what 'type of person' you are!
Yeah. There is such a thing as being single and being happy. It happens all the time. It's not all about an "in-between" thing -- "I just broke up with my ex and need some time to myself before I start dating again" or a permanent thing -- "It's a lifestyle choice to not tie myself down to any one person" -- it's a human being thing. It's about loving who you are and your life as it is with you being the biggest star in it! Single does not equal lonely. Singles can fill their time however they want, whenever they want, with whomever they want. They completely pilot their happiness. Besides, all you have to do is look around to know that being in a relationship does not necessarily make you happy! There are MILLIONS of people stuck in ruts or bad relationships who, for whatever reason, decide to stay that way. Life on the single-side, when you're doing it right, is... the bomb.
So! Want to celebrate being young, single and free? Check out:
Beauty Queens -- NOT your average run down the catwalk, this book follows the lives of a plane full of Pageant contestants who crash land on a deserted island and have to learn how to fend for themselves - WITHOUT hair straighteners and mascara. It pokes a lot of fun at contemporary consumer culture, and DOES stereotype some ideas of young girls -- but stick with it, and you'll discover an island full of empowered, kick-a$$ young women who are saving the day and having a lot of fun doing it.
And what about a guy who is so busy blowing stuff up and rescuing the planet that he doesn't even have time to THINK about dating? Stormbreaker has enough action to keep your heart palpitating without any of that lovey dovey stuff.
Sometimes it ISN'T easy, fun, or exciting getting to the healthy side of single (and there are rarely any pyrotechnics). The "Alice" series are a tried and true map of teen life -- in this book, Alice has to navigate a recent break up from her boyfriend, Patrick, and figure out who she is, and how to love life now that it's just her.
And then there's Hollywood's take on the matter: CLEARLY it's better to live the high-life as a onesie than have to deal with crazy stalkers or have people dying on you all the time. I'm thinking "Misery" for psycho love and "Romeo and Juliet" for dying lover... or "Titanic"... or "Moulin Rouge"... you know, there are a lot of those out there... There's also the BRILLIANT "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" (check the ratings for all of these, guys... just a heads up!), which has a futuristic sci-fi feel in the idea that we could erase entire chunks of our memories as if they never happened... leaving our personalities intact, but nixing say, those pesky reminders of a relationship gone wrong...
... But then again, there's a lot to be said for love. Many people who aren't in relationships DO want them, and for good reason. You can get so much out of life by sharing love with another person; a feeling of companionship, someone to share hopes and dreams with, constant feel-good hormone rushes... If you're single, but hopeful, there is a light on the horizon. Don't believe me? Scope these out:
Tiny Cooper is in LOVE with being in love. He's had a million (and counting) boyfriends. The kid just does not give up! Enter Will Grayson, his next beau, who, plot-drivingly enough, shares the same name as Tiny's best friend, Will Grayson, and who decidedly does NOT believe in love. We keep finding lists to put this book on because it really is one of the funniest, loveliest, weepiest, thought-provoking and awesome books out there.
The Statistical Probability of Falling in Love at First Sight (phew!) lives up to it's fluffy, feel-good promise. It's a light read -- with a few Kleenex moments -- that will take up your time until you're ready to go out and fall in love yourself.
Everyone knows you have to hit rock-bottom before you can start climbing back up again (unless you're one of those freakish movie stars who can support their entire body weight with one hand dangling down the edge of a cliff for like, an eternity...). Tom's rock-bottom is a heartbreaking one, but he slowly patches his life back together, and yup, finishes the story by being in love. The Piper's Son by Melina Marchetta.
Need a flick? Kat doesn't believe in love... until she meets Patrick. Uhhhh, yeah. That's Heath Ledger. And Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Don't need much more than THAT to believe in love... unless you love Shakespeare like I love Shakespeare... cuz it's got just a little sprinkling of that too. Borrow 10 Things I Hate About You from the library -- you won't regret it. Oh, and here's the jam you can rock to through the whole love-loving day: The Darkness - I Believe in a Thing Called Love
So. You believed in love. You really did. But now it's gone and sucker-punched you, and you need to get out of this relationship -- fast. Fear not, you are FAR from alone. Anybody and their dog could name you the best Break-Up movies, so instead we made a list of the greatest break up songs. Need to cry? Check. Need to scream? Check. Need to realize-how-awesome-you-are-and-how-much-better-you'd-be-without-them? Double Check.
I Will Survive -- Gloria GaynorI Hate Everything About You -- Three Days Grace
I Want To Break Free -- QueenToo Little, Too Late -- JoJo or Leave
Face Down -- Red Jumpsuit ApparatusSince U Been Gone -- Kelly ClarksonIrreplaceable -- Beyonce
This Love -- Maroon 5
Fighter -- Christina Aguilera
Survivor -- Destiny's Child
These are guaranteed hits... but if you've got something a bit less... top 40, leave us a comment to let us know. We're ALWAYS looking for good music. I personally believe that "Wild Hope" by Mandy Moore is the BEST break up album ever -- she wrote it after her split with Zach Braff, and this chick knows heartache. But, she's not everyone's cup of tea, so fair warning. Now that I think about it... Kelly Clarkson's a killer crooner for break-up anthems too... she's got a whole album of them.
Okay. So you're in love. And the person you love is loving you back. And everything's great. And it's Valentine's Day. And you've already watched every Nicholas Sparks movie ever (or been 'forced' to watch... although really, who are you kidding, you liked it too...) So... what? Try a Classic. Not like an OLD classic, although flicks like "Roman Holiday" and "Bringing up Baby" are pretty awesome. I mean like... something just heart-warming that you could watch again, and again, and again. Maybe the movie you saw on your first date? Or something you haven't watched since you were a kid. Or the movie your PARENTS saw on their first date (now that's something to keep you guessing...)
Here are some pics I could watch a hundred times and never get sick of:
So Happy Valentine's Day; whoever you are, wherever you are. Rock it out YOUR way.
Wanna be a Manga star? Well, there is a FREE Manga & Comics Drawing Workshop at Thornhill Library this Thursday February 8th! Register Here! Now!! I know you wanna!
When I was a teen, one of our groups' favorite things to do was hang out at various red-neck diners drawing art and comics for each other all night. Maybe we were all on a kamikaze mission but... sharing all those comics and making zines together was certainly a blast! And sometimes we even sold them at All Ages shows making back our coffee money. DIY! There was always an edge... who could draw the awesomest MANGA? Make the coolest character? Have the weirdest plot? ... or get us in the most trouble?...
At any rate - Come to this workshop, brush up your comic skillz, and possibly MEET others who are as obsessed with Manga as you are!
Then publish your drawings: SUBMIT them to our TEENSCREATE page! From there it's just a short jump to DC... with maybe a few coffee shops and diners along the way...
In the meantime here are also some cool suggestions to get you started drawing.
Plus one of my favorite titles Steamboy by Katsuhiro Otomo. Who's your favorite Manga character?

Online petitions and social network postings are spooling out as fans of the TVO programs Saturday Night at the Movies seek to save the show from budget cutbacks announced at the public broadcaster.
Fans are rallying to save the popular commercial free movie program have set up a Twitter feed, Save #SNAM, to collect comments and signatures to protest the cancellation of the show.
Newspaper film critic Peter Howell called upon fan to "rise" and protest the decision; a YouTube video, posted by local film critic Richard Crouse, calls the move "shameful".
"As a publicly-funded organization, TVO has a responsibility to deliver on its educational mission, with the greatest impact, across multiple platforms," said Lisa de Wilde, TVO's Chief Executive Officer. "To do this we must find cost savings in some areas and direct more resources into others.
"When Saturday Night at the Movies began almost 40 years ago, it broke new ground but now entire TV networks and web services are dedicated to movies," she added. "The choices we've made will direct TVO's resources to the kind of high quality educational content that you can't find anywhere else."
TVO is reducing its staff by some 35 to 40 employees as part of the belt-tightening; two other shows, Allan Gregg in Conversation and Big Ideas will also be cut in an effort to save $2 million from its total operating budget of some $64 million.
When, or if, SNAM does go off the air, De Wilde said the timeslot would be filled by documentaries. The public broadcaster also said that some Big Ideas content could find its way onto The Agenda with Steve Paikin, TVO's its flagship current events program.
