Statement of Faith
What we believe - Basic Doctrines
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good
work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by
him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:1-3)
Jesus Christ died as an atoning sacrifice for our
sins, was buried, and was raised from the dead
brothers, I want to remind you of the Gospel I preached to you, which you
received and on which you have taken your stand. By this Gospel you are
saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you
have believed in vain. For what I received I passed on to you as of first
importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the
Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. After
that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same
time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. (1
Corinthians 15:1-6)
In this the love of God was manifested toward us,
that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live
through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us
and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:9-10)
(Ephesians 2:4-9) But God,
who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ
(by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit
together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come
He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us
in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that
not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should
And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to
every creature. "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he
who does not believe will be condemned. "And these signs will follow
those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak
with new tongues; "they will take up serpents; and if they drink
anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the
sick, and they will recover." (Mark 16:15-18)
Jesus said to him, "You shall love the LORD your God with all your
heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and
great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor
as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the
Prophets." (Matthew 22:37-40)
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you
must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my
disciples, if you love one another. (John 13:34-35)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such
there is no law. And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh
with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk
in the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-25)
There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are
differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of
activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the
manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the
word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same
Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the
working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of
spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the
interpretation of tongues. (1 Corinthians 12:4-10)
Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. And God has
appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third
teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps,
administrations, varieties of tongues. (1 Corinthians 12:27-28)
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you
will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to
the ends of the earth." (Acts 1:8)
By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has
given us of His Spirit. (1 John 4:13)
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of
God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is
not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the
Spirit is life because of righteousness. (Romans 8:9-10)
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God,
these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again
to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out,
"Abba, Father." The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that
we are children of God, and if children, then heirs; heirs of God and
joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be
glorified together. (Romans 8:14-17)

Great belt, great value...
By: ryan
I purchased this belt 7 months ago, and have worn it every single day since. The main reason I bought this belt was because it was made in the USA and it was only $20! I figured if it didn't last, I wasn't out too much, cheap foreign belts cost that much. This belt has not only lasted 7 months of daily use, but I am confident it will last another 7 months and more. I wear my belt tight (I don't like my jeans falling down) and it has not split or cracked like many cheap belts before this one. This belt is not too soft or too stiff, it is just right. I will definitely will buy another.

Lasted a lot longer than I expected...
By: Roberta
My man can ruin a belt in no time at all. So I started buying cheeper belts. Then I looked up belts on this web site and saw this one. It has lasted almost a year now. That is way longer than any belt has lasted. I'm getting a new one now just to have it on hand.

USA Made Quality...
By: Halcyon9
A work belt is something you don't think about until you have a poor one. This belt is the right color with the right buckle, and the leather quality is very good. Size is accurate on the size 34 I ordered, and it is well finished. If you are looking for a leather belt that is durable and totally unpretentious, you have found it Here.

Durable Belt...
By: MichelleTodd
I bought this belt for my husband, as he needed one and it was a good opportunity. I chose this one because of the reviews and descriptions. He needed something durable for work, good heavy leather, but soft enough to be comfortable. This belt was perfect! And usually, after a while of wearing, the holes stretch. But not this belt! It looks almost new and my husband has had it over a year. Thanks for a great product!

How to commemorate the 450-year anniversary of Michelangelo's death? With sprinkles, naturally. Lots and lots of sprinkles. Make that half a billion sprinkles. That's how many the UK-based cake designer Michelle Wibowo used to recreate Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel fresco, The Creation of Adam, to display in London's St. Pancras church in conjunction with the February celebrations commemorating the artist.
Working with the cake-design brand Cake Angels, which commissioned the cake in honor of the Michelangelo anniversary, Wibowo used 24 colors of sprinkles, lots of icing, and 10,000 marshmallows--and managed to finish the near-exact replica in just 168 hours. The result is so beautiful (not to mention deliciously edible), it's shocking that the cake lasted long enough for anyone to see it. Watch Wibowo make the cake here (not to worry--the video is only about 2 minutes long).

First 2 Trailers for Darren Aronofsky's NOAH Starring Russell Crowe
by Adam Chitwood Posted 1 year, 33 days ago
Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for director Darren Aronofsky's Biblical epic Noah, and it looks exactly like a Darren Aronofsky version of the Great Flood story. The visuals here are quite stunning, and the production's decision to shoot in Iceland looks to be more than warranted. How refreshing it is to see a film with real backgrounds and landscapes as opposed to CG-created everything (ahem Maleficent). What I'm most excited about, though, is the human element, as Aronofsky has a knack for telling wonderfully intimate stories that are extremely character-focused. Combined with the expansive visuals of the Great Flood, this has the makings to be quite the event film. Whatever quarrels are going on about the current edit of the feature, I sincerely hope Aronofsky's signature style isn't lost in the final cut.
Hit the jump to watch the trailer. The film stars Russell Crowe, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, Logan Lerman, Ray Winstone, Douglas Booth, Kevin Durand, Martin Csokas, Mark Margolis, and Anthony Hopkins. Noah opens on March 28, 2014. [Update: Paramount has also released an entirely different international trailer, which is also included after the jump.]

Christopher James "Chris" Christie (born September 6, 1962) is the 55th and current Governor of New Jersey. Upon his election to the governorship in November 2009, Christie became the first Republican to win a statewide election in New Jersey in 12 years. Christie, an attorney, previously served as United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey and as a Morris County, New Jersey Freeholder. In 2011, he considered entering the race for the Republican Presidential nomination but ultimately decided not to run.
Chris Christie was born in Newark, New Jersey, the son of Sondra A. (née Grasso) and Wilbur James "Bill" Christie, a certified public accountant. Christie is of Scottish, Irish, and Sicilian descent. He was raised in Livingston, graduating from Livingston High School. Christie graduated from the University of Delaware with a Bachelor of Arts in political science in 1984 and Seton Hall University School of Law with a Juris Doctor in 1987. Christie was admitted to the Bar of the State of New Jersey and the Bar of the United States District Court, District of New Jersey, in December 1987. After being elected the Governor of New Jersey, he was awarded honorary doctorate degrees from Rutgers University, the state university of New Jersey, and Monmouth University in 2010.

Hello ladies,
A friend of the family is selling his Nikon D90 along with two Tamron lenses 28-80 AF Aspherical 1:35-5.6 and the zoom lens is 75-300mm 1:4-5.8 LD Tele Macro (1:1.39) for about $700.00. He said he would sell it to me for $600.00. The camera is less than a year old so still has about 6 months of the original warranty left and less than 1000 photos were shot. He is in a tight situation and needs the money.
I guess my question to you is if you think this is a good deal or not. I have absolutely no idea about Tamron lenses and of course when I called Nikon to verify that it was a USA model they told me that only Nikon lenses should be used on a Nikon so now this is kind of holding me back.
Please give me your thoughs on this. Thanks so much.
That is a really good deal.
Don't worry about only using Nikon lenses. I have a Sigma lens that I use with my Nikon camera all the time. The camera store actually sold it to us that way - Nikon body and Sigma lens b/c they didn't have a comparable Nikon lens in stock.

I DIE...Lana Del Rey is a pure beauty. I can't stop staring at her. I love the aesthetic "bubble", inspired by Nancy Sinatra, the 50's and the 60's, that surrounds her! Lana, your chromosomes have combined beautifully ;)

sorry for my abstinence, but school keeps me busy. And there are lots of exciting and surprising things happening in my life, right now besides school stuff. I spent the whole weekend with genetics fuckery(DNA, chromosomes and so on) and there is still a lot of work to do. Hope to be back on Thursday or Friday. But in the meantime, I'll try to post on my facebook page and on twitter.

prom dress.
I know, I know....I don't have started writing my A-levels yet and I'm thinking about my prom dress?! Senior prom is in June 2012- that's 7 months away! I guess being a member of the prom planning commitee makes you just think a lot about prom theme, location, invitations, decoration and HELL YES the prom dress. I mean it's "the night", right?! Memories from prom night will last for a lifetime. So, why not start thinking about prom dresses more than a half year in advance ;)!

Length: 2.7 km (1.7 mi)
There is a paved bicycle path along the east side of Browns Creek between Rinaldi Street and Lassen Street. A dirt equestrian path follows the west side of Browns Creek between Rinaldi Street and Devonshire Street. A small park is located along the dirt path just south of Chatsworth Street.
Trailhead: Entrances are located on the corner of Rinaldi Street and Independence Ave, Chatsworth Street, and Devonshire Street and Canoga Ave, and Lassen Street.
Chatsworth Park consists of a south section and a north section which are separate. There is no direct trail connection between them. However, they both have hiking trails up to Santa Susana Pass, so a long hiking loop can be made.
Length: 4 kilometers (2.5 mi). Elevation Change: 1,100 ft.
This is a trail going from Simi Valley to the Rocky Peak trail on the ridgeline between Simi and San Fernando Valleys. It climbs through chaparral and offers little shade. From the top, it offers views of both valleys. With little shade and a big elevation change in such a short distance, this can be a deceptively challenging trail. Bring some energy snacks and water. For good, cheap energy food, do a search for Medifast coupons and check out their line of high-nutrient foods.
Trailhead: The trailhead is located at the end of Flanagan Drive off of Yosemite Ave.
A park with a system of easy trails, including an wildlife and historical interpretation trail. It has several trails leading out of the park to another small park and up the hill towards Santa Susana Pass.
Trailhead: Corriganville Park is located on Smith Road in Simi Valley.
DEVIL CANYON TRAIL - Length: 9 kilometers (5.5 mi).
A trail following Devil Canyon. This is a quiet, shady trail that follows a small intermittent creek. The trail beginning is paved but this quickly ends and a small trail takes over by the time the trail reaches the Devil Canyon. With frequent creek crossings expect to get your feet wet unless it is late summer. The upper end of the trail reaches a dirt road which is gated preventing doing a loop with Rocky Peak.
Trailhead: This trail starts at the Topanga Canyon exit of the 118 freeway. The start is a paved road off of Poema Street just west of Topanga Canyon Blvd. The pavement quickly ends.
This is a small system of foot and equestrian trails on a ridge between Devin Canyon and Browns Canyon. They connect up with a dirt road that does not provide paved road access. It is accessible from a spur trail off of both Devil Canyon Trail and Brown Canyon Trail. The entrance from Brown Canyon starts at a Santa Monica Conservancy sign. A section of the trail merges with a road for a short distance before splitting back off.
Trailhead: Start Devil Canyon Trail from the Topanga Canyon exit of the 118 and when you reach the creek, look for an obscure trail on the far side of the creek. Once through the initial brush, the trail is obvious and well established. Alternatively, start the Browns Creek trail system using any of the lower entrances. A trail leads up the western side where it has a three way junction adjacent to a road. Follow the trail parallel to the road.
- Length: 3.7 kilometers (2.3 mi). Elevation Change 1,000 ft.
This is a trail going from Simi Valley to Rocky Peak Trail on the ridgeline between Simi and San Fernando Valleys. Halfway up to Rocky Peak Trail, the trail passes several small caves. The longest cave is over 100 feet long. Just down the Rocky Peak Trail from the junction is the Rock House, a small room built under a rock overhang.
Trailhead: The trail starts on the northern end of Kuehner Drive north of the 118 freeway in Simi Valley. A sign at a turn in the road marks the trailhead.
- Elevation change: 150 ft.
This is a short single track trail connecting Santa Susana Pass Road just east of Rocky Peak Trailhead to a parking area/trailhead on Lilac Lane.
Trailhead: One trailhead is on Santa Susana Pass Road just east of the Rocky Peak Exit of 118. The other trailhead is on Lilac Lane a half mile south of Santa Susana Pass Road.
OLD STAGECOACH EQUESTRIAN TRAIL - Length: 3 kilometers
(1.9 mi). Elevation change: 700 ft.
This is part of the old stage coach route that ran through the Santa Susana Pass in the 1800's. It is not completely obvious because there are several unmarked trail junctions and the stage coach route is not always the largest. The trail starts at the entrance to Chatsworth Park South and follows along the edge of the park. In 0.7 kilometers there is a dirt trail to the left, follow this up a short distance to a paved road and turn right. (alternatively you can start on Larwin Ave at the Santa Susana Park sign or at the end of Jeffrey Mark Court, both of these come in on the partially paved road) Quickly, a trail appears on the left, take this up. Starting in a half kilometer there are a series of unmarked trail junctions, generally you want to go up and toward the pass not the ridge. The upper portion of the trail is on rugged bedrock. There is an historical marker along this section. The trail ends up on Lilac Lane at the beginning of the New Stagecoach trail. Coming down from the pass you generally want to take the down trails at the junction. However, at 1.3 kilometers from the top, you hit a dirt road at a right angle, you want to go left here and straight through the next intersection.
Trailhead: The entrance of Chatsworth Park South on the western end of Devonshire Street. An alternative route starts on Larwin Ave at the Santa Susana Park sign or at the end of Feffrey Mark Court. The upper trailhead is on Lilac Lane where the road makes a sharp right turn.
RIM OF THE VALLEY TRAIL - Length: 6.7 kilometers (4.2
mi). Elevation change: 1,200 ft.
This is an old road that has degraded into a rocky trail. You can still see patches of asphalt in unexpected spots. The trail runs from a private development in Chatsworth to the Rocky Peak Trail. The trail is 5.2 kilometers one way to the Rocky Peak Trail on the valley rim. However, there is also 1.5 km of road through the private development. The development has a green line guiding you along the streets to the trail. There are two entrances for the development and both are open for trail use.
Trailhead: One lower trailhead starts on Iverson Road. The other lower trailhead is on the north side of the Topanga Canyon Blvd. exit of the 118 freeway. You walk or ride through a private development. There is an open gate left of the guardhouse.
ROCKY PEAK TRAIL - Length: 10.4 kilometers (6.5 mi).
Elevation change: 1,050 ft.
This is a dirt road trail. It starts at a trail head at the Rocky Peak exit of the west bound 118 freeway. From the trailhead it is 0.8 miles to the Hummingbird trail with an elevation gain of 575 feet. From the Hummingbird trail it is an additional 1.7 miles to the Rocky Peak Cutoff with an elevation gain of 475 feet. From the Rocky Peak Cutoff to the Chumash trail it is an additional 1.3 miles with an elevation drop of 200 feet. This trail provides views of both Simi and San Fernando Valleys. It ends at a locked gate 3.5 kilometers beyond Chumash Trail.
Trailhead: The trail starts on the north side of the Rocky Peak exit from the 118 freeway in the Santa Susana Pass.
- Elevation change: 300 ft.
This is the mildly overgrown stage coach route that used to connect San Fernando and Simi Valleys. It runs from Corriganville Park to Santa Susana Pass Road at the Junction with Box Canyon Road. To reach the trail at Corriganville Park requires crossing the Metro Link Rail line. This is dangerous! A better access point is midway up Stage Coach Trail where the route and trail briefly join.
Trailhead: The upper trailhead is at the junction of Santa Susana Pass Road and Box Canyon Road.
- Elevation change: 250 ft.
This is a path that parallels the old stage coach route. It leads from the Wildlife Corridor Trail up to the Santa Susana Pass Road a short distance west of the Rocky Peak Trailhead.
Trailhead: The lower trailhead is located in Corriganville Park on Smith Road in Simi Valley. The upper trailhead is on Santa Susana Pass Road a quarter mile west of the Rocky Peak exit of the 118 Freeway.
- Elevation change: 900 ft.
This is a path leading from Corriganville Park to Rocky Peak Trail. The trail passes under the 118 freeway through a wildlife tunnel. A short way up Rocky Peak Trail from the junction is the Rock House, a small room built under a rock overhang.
Trailhead: The trailhead is located in Corriganville Park on Smith Road in Simi Valley.

For Immediate Release:
Aug. 15, 2005
Mary Stadick Smith - (605) 773-7228
Proposed reorganization plan delivered
A reorganization plan for the Burke and Gregory school districts has been submitted to the communities by the South Dakota Department of Education. The plan will be voted on Sept. 27, 2005, by the citizens of both districts.
"Ideally, a reorganization plan such as this is developed by the districts that are involved," said Dr. Rick Melmer, secretary of the South Dakota Department of Education. "But because these two districts were not able to come to an agreement, the state was forced, by law, to step in."
The proposed plan calls for a consolidated school district called the South Central School District. The new district would include elementary schools in both Burke and Gregory and a school for grades 7-12 in Gregory. Currently, both communities have elementary, middle and high schools. In addition, the rural school in Iona Township, part of the Gregory School District, would close. These changes would be effective July 1, 2006.
The plan also establishes one seven-member school board to govern the South Central District. These members would be elected from throughout the territory of the new district.
During its first year of operation, which would be the 2006-07 school year, the department estimates that the South Central School District would have 96 students in the elementary school in Burke and 180 students in the elementary school in Gregory. At the 7-12 level, the district would have an estimated 264 students, with 63 percent of those students coming from Gregory and 37 from Burke.
"I think it's safe to say that there was agreement between the two communities as to the efficiency of combining the middle and high schools. The big question was the location," Melmer said. "We also were sensitive to the issue of not wanting to transport large numbers of elementary school children, which is one of the main reasons for maintaining separate elementary schools."
When developing the reorganization plan, the Department of Education considered factors such as the size of the communities, efficiency of travel and cost savings.
"We have sought solutions that will sustain public education long-term for the children in this region," Melmer said. "The plan is constructed on what will be in the best interest of children long-term, not on what is popular or perceived to win positive support at the polls."
If the reorganization would be approved by voters, the new district would be entitled to approximately $360,000 dollars in reorganization incentive money over the next three years.

James Dennin, Kapitall: We found 5 stocks with high ratings for corporate social responsibility, and strong earnings growth for 2014.
According to Dale Wannen, President of Sustainvest Asset Management, s ustainable and r esponsible i nvesting (SRI) is one of the fastest growing investment disciplines in the U.S, growing 22% between 2010 and 2012. Dale specializes in SRI, and his fund uses a variety of asset classes, from private equity to venture capital, to gain a competitive return while also supporting companies and products with high standards of corporate social responsibility.
[Read more on SRI from Kapitall: Responsible Investing: Is Your Portfolio Melting the Polar Caps?]
SRI considers environmental, social and corporate governance criteria (ESG) to generate long-term competitive financial returns along with positive societal impact. Overall today, one in nine dollars under professional management use strategies that take ESG into account.So we decided to run a screen looking for stocks that have been able to pair strong earnings growth with high ratings in regards to their ESG. To do that we started off with the 50 companies on CSRHub's Corporate Social Responsibility Index. These were the highest scoring companies with regards to:
- Corporate Citizenship: Looks at a company's impact on the community. Companies that donate a lot to charity, and work to protect the surrounding environments score highly in this category.
- Corporate Governance: Takes into account how a company is run. This score is based on transparency, shareholder rights, and the makeup of a company's board. As Wannen says, advisory shareholder resolutions are "crucial" to ESG, because they are usually how these kinds of issues get brought to the attention of company management.
- Workplace: Looks at training, employee pay, and the happiness of workers.

CATHOLIC circles in Rome and Australia are abuzz with speculation that Pope Benedict XVI will shortly appoint Australia's Cardinal George Pell to a prestigious job in the top echelons of the Roman Curia.Tip O' the hat to Carl.
Cardinal Pell's experience as Archbishop of Sydney and Melbourne, and his service on a range of Vatican organisations, is seen as an ideal background to take on a senior Vatican job.
Cardinal Pell, who was ordained in 1966, served as a member of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith when Cardinal Ratzinger was in charge.
He is also a member of the Congregation for Divine Worship and president of the Vox Clara Committee, which advises the Vatican on English translations of liturgical texts used at Mass.
One possible senior job becoming vacant in Rome is the powerful position of Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, which helps advise the Pope on the appointment of new bishops across the world.
Its Prefect, Cardinal Battista Re, who has held the job since 2000, reached the retirement age of 75 this year.

Cardinal Pell to Vatican?
Cardinal Pell is an Australian heavyweight. He might be moving to the Vatican soon, if the speculation is correct.. I like it.

DOL, SEC Issue Coordinated No-Action Letter Relief Regarding 401(k) Plan Disclosure Rules
Tuesday, November 1, 2011
Bloomberg Law®
Peter O'Hara | Bloomberg LawResponse of the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Investment Management, Department of Labor File No. 132-3 (Oct. 26, 2011) Following a request for no-action relief from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), the SEC staff (Staff) agreed that information provided by plan administrators to plan participants or beneficiaries pursuant to Rule 404a-5 (DOL Rule) under ERISA, will be treated as a communication that satisfies the requirements of Securities Act Rule 482. As the Staff explained, the DOL Rule requires certain disclosures of "plan and investment-related information" in a comparative format so that participants and beneficiaries can "make informed decisions" when managing participant-directed individual account plans. In particular, the DOL Rule specifies disclosures for variable rate investment options, including money market funds. While plan administrators must disclose average total returns for these types of investments, they are not required to disclose current yields or whether the fund is insured by FDIC or another government agency. Rule 482, the Staff continued, allows open-end investment companies to include uniformly calculated performance information in sales materials, including advertisements. Like the DOL Rule, Rule 482 compels disclosure of total returns; however, it also requires a money market fund to disclose its current yield. The Staff further observed that the two rules differ in the timeliness of disclosures and in specific legends and presentations of information. Despite these differences, the Staff explained that, "[i]n light of the purposes and policies behind the DOL Rule," disclosures in compliance with the DOL Rule "should not be viewed as inconsistent" with Rule 482. Moreover, the Staff stated that information disclosed under the DOL Rule does not need to filed, pursuant to Securities Act Rule 497 and Investment Company Act Section 24(b), with the SEC or other national securities associations. Finally, the Staff noted that FINRA intends to interpret its own rules applicable to disclosures by plan administrators to participants and beneficiaries "in a manner that is consistent with our positions. . . ."

- Chasing his Dream
Leo Castillo '12

Leo Castillo '12 credits track for opening doors to a better life
In elementary school, Leodan (Leo) Castillo '12 relied on his classmates to help translate his assignments. Today, he is a graduate of Willamette University.
Though he was just 5 years old at the time, Castillo clearly remembers the challenges his family faced when they moved from Mexico to Hood River, Ore.
"My siblings and I sometimes missed the bus because we didn't know which one to get on — and we couldn't ask because we didn't speak English," he says. "It wasn't until fifth grade that I knew the language completely and was able to do things on my own."
Now a professional runner, Castillo attributes his achievements to the confidence he gained as a high school and then collegiate athlete.
"Running opened up a lot of opportunities for me, coming from a family that didn't know about college," he says. "If it wasn't for running, I probably wouldn't have gone to college and I wouldn't be where I am today."
Finding the Best Fit
Castillo says choosing where to attend college wasn't easy, especially as a first-generation college student.
"Here I was — this kid with a Mexican background and no sense of how this whole recruiting thing worked — getting letters from schools all over the country about going to run for them, a lot of them from Division I schools," Castillo says. "But the feeling I got when I visited Willamette and talked to the coaches — I just knew it was the right choice."
Willamette had everything Castillo was looking for: a welcoming campus environment, rigorous classes and a history of developing great runners. There was one problem — how could he afford to attend a private liberal arts college?
"My parents didn't have any money saved for me to attend college, so I had to carefully consider the packages that each school presented to me," he says. "The scholarships and financial aid at Willamette made the final cost of education comparable to the state schools — or even better."
Not only did Willamette's Financial Aid office offer Castillo a variety of scholarships, including the Willamette Compass Scholarship and Willamette Merit Award, the Athletics department also helped him find job opportunities on campus.
At Willamette, Castillo often juggled two or more jobs. He was a teaching assistant for the psychology department, resident assistant in Doney Hall and kitchen aide at Alpha Chi Omega sorority.
Castillo also sought off-campus job experiences, working for State Farm Insurance as a bilingual translator and performing summer research in the entomology department at Oregon State University.
As he balanced his demanding academic, athletic and work schedules, Castillo says he often turned to his professors for support.
"When I came to Willamette my freshman year, not knowing the college system, my College Colloquium professor Dave Craig guided me with what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go," he says. "Willamette is a small school, so I knew my professors and they knew me. They were always willing to work with me."
Leading the Pack
Castillo's professors didn't just support him as a student — they also recognized and encouraged his commitment to the cross country and track and field teams.
"My professors would help find ways to work with my traveling schedule, even when I went to nationals and had to miss a few lectures," says Castillo, who majored in international studies.
Competing at the NCAA Division III National Championships became a regular occurrence for Castillo — as he qualified for nationals four times in cross country and in the 10k in track and field. At nationals, he placed 15th in the 10k, and his best cross country finish was 52nd overall.
Throughout his racing career at Willamette, Castillo also earned multiple Northwest Conference titles: Men's 1500m and 5k Champion in 2009, Men's Cross Country Champion in 2010, and Men's Cross Country, 5k and 10k Champion in 2011.
Castillo vividly remembers his first conference meet as a freshman, where he surprised the competition by winning the 1500m and 5k.
"My coaches believed in me and they had a standard that they believed I could meet," Castillo says. "Before the race, my coach (Matt McGuirk) told me to go out there and win it, so I just went out there and won it — which was pretty awesome and fulfilling."
McGuirk attributes Castillo's many successes on the track to his tenacity and his unwavering commitment to the team.
"I encourage students to make the most of their opportunities because they only have this four-year window to be a collegiate athlete," McGuirk says. "Leo set the standard for work ethic, and others followed suit."
Castillo says the team always found ways to keep practices fun. And despite the many pressures of college, he never saw running as a burden.
"Being on the track and cross country teams made me a happier, more well-rounded student," he says. "If I was stressed out by homework or a project, it was really nice to go run and think about something else."
Chasing His Dream
When he graduated from Willamette, Castillo decided he wasn't ready to give up his passion for racing.
"Even though I knew chasing my dream was a risk, I wanted to see how far running could take me," he says. "I packed my bags, said goodbye to my friends and family and moved to Boulder, Colorado."
Within a few weeks of arriving in Colorado, Castillo was invited to train with coach Brad Hudson at the elite running club, Hudson Training Systems.
Today he races professionally in a variety of events — including the 5k, half marathon and competitive trail running — with the goal of improving his times and qualifying for the 2016 Olympics.
On top of his intensive training regimen, Castillo works in the compliance division for Emerson, a global manufacturing and technology company.
"Finding time to run competitively and work full-time is a lot like balancing my sport and academics at Willamette," he says. "Racing at Willamette taught me to be persistent and goal oriented, and it gave me the confidence to compete against professional athletes."

I see fields of green…(name that song)…
Ah, home sweet 400 square foot home. After being propositioned in the Atlanta airport and then mistaken for Miss Chattanooga by a foot fetishist (maybe she, too, has embarrassing thumb-toes), it's good to be back in NYC where all the weirdest things usually happen to tourists.
So I'm curious – do you snap photos from the airplane window seat when you fly? The idea of flying is just so absurd to my little brain (I mean have you ever REALLY thought about how you're essentially just sitting in a floating chair?), but the views can be pretty fantastic. I don't expect to catch Dorothy and Toto flying by my window, but it does give me something to focus on other than the fear-sweat in my palms (who needs a beverage cart – my hands are like faucets). SLR or iPhone in-hand, I'm always poised and ready for a good shot.
Turns out I'm not alone. I did a little sleuthing and found several pages like this and this dedicated to the best window seat photography (thank you, Internet) – check them out for an amazing snapshot of how diverse and beautiful our planet is.
So here are my 5 favorite tips for how to shoot from your window seat:
- Shoot early in the flight when the windows will be clearest;
- This should be a no-brainer, but don't use your flash!!!;
- Pick a point of interest inside or outside of the plane. A big vista may take your breath away but is often hard to capture;
- Have your camera ready – often when a plane banks, you get the most interesting views;
- For the die-hards, plot your course! According to Travel and Leisure, "the website fboweb.com generates Google Earth views of exact routes using up-to-the-minute FAA flight-tracking data. If you zoom in and tilt at the right angle, the view of the virtual globe looks just like what you'll see out the airplane window."

I love the Bali shot – that's what it looked like when I first went there. The volcanoes pop up above the cloud cover and then when you hit the clouds in the descent it get crazy turbulent and you get these brief visions of bright green rice terraces stretching in all directions and there's this sense that the pilot is somehow having to work to reveal this island below.
I always choose a seat on the aisle! As for the song…"What a Wonderful World". Luis Armstrong. Wonderist World? :).

WITHOUT ADDING A SINGLE NEW RIGGING POINT, DANLEY SPEAKERS DRAMATICALLY IMPROVE COVERAGE AT XAVIER UNIVERSITYâS CINTAS CENTER
CINCINNATI, OHIO: The Musketeers menâs basketball team is the standout athletic program at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. Over the last dozen years, the team has made an appearance in an NCAA tournament in all but one, and Forbes places it among the nationâs top twenty most valuable college basketball programs. The Musketeers play at the 10,500-seat Cintas Center at Xavier University, which was built in 2000. Xavier University recently asked consultant Anthony James Partners and local integrator ICB Audio & Video to update the sound system with increased coverage of seating areas that were poorly covered by the original system. In part because no additional rigging points could be added, the solution centered on lightweight Danley loudspeakers and subwoofers with excellent pattern control and exceptional sound quality.
âThe Cintas Center is a large venue, and Xavier University does a good job keeping up with itâs A/V system,â said John Keller, who configured the system and the rigging with ICB Audio & Video. âThey wanted the new system to improve upon the old systemâs coverage, which had quite a few holes â most notably in the first few rows on the floor. The big trick was that we couldnât add any rigging points nor add significant weight to the rigging points that existed.
âOf course,â he continued, âthe reason you get holes in coverage is because the speaker is delivering the wrong pattern at the wrong location, but the direct and obvious solution of adding new locations wasnât on the table. Nevertheless, the coverage, efficiency, and relatively lightweight design of Danley loudspeakers allowed us to meet the facilityâs goals within those stringent constraints.â An interesting side note, when Danley demoâd its products for the Xavier officials, they responded to its noticeably superior fidelity with a chant that exceeded the most indulgent fantasy of the most optimistic contractor. âThey literally chanted, âCut the check!â and âGive the man the P.O.!â to the head of purchasing,â recalled Mike Hedden, Danley president. Anticipating a chuckle of incredulity, he added, âThey really did do that!â
The new Danley system replaced the old system, cluster for cluster. Ten clusters use a pair of Danley SH-96 full-range loudspeakers stacked in opposite orientations to provide complete coverage of the upper and lower bowls. Two additional clusters use an SH-96 with two Danley SH-64s to provide expanded coverage at either end of the bowl. A total of six Danley TH-115 subwoofers hang independently in two rows along the arenaâs long axis. Each cluster is dead hung from a single point because a pick point wasnât possible; the catwalks and other ceiling hardware couldnât safely support it.
Keller was able to reuse the wiring infrastructure, and ICB replaced the distributed audio system for all of the facilities outside of the bowl with a BiAmp system networked via CobraNet the previous year. A 32-channel Yamaha LS9 console serves as a new front end, with CobraNet output feeding a new QSC Basis DSP system. The two DSP systems share audio via CobraNet. A rack of QSC CX- and PL-series amplifiers power the Danley loudspeaker and subwoofers.
âThe coverage and sound of the new system are dramatically better than they were in the old system,â said Keller. âThere are no dead spots, and the cabinets work together nicely in the clusters. How that happens exactly is Danleyâs magic secret. In the areas that were covered previously, the coverage is now more even. The client is very pleased, and Iâm impressed that we were able to swap out all the speakers within a two-week window in order not to conflict with their basketball schedule or corporate sponsors. Using the same rigging points was really the only option to get the job done.â
ABOUT DANLEY SOUND LABS Danley Sound Labs is the exclusive home of Tom Danley, one of the most innovative loudspeaker designers in the industry today and recognized worldwide as a pioneer for "outside the box" thinking in professional audio technology.

As another bit of good news, the public closed beta test is said to be "very close" in Bashiok's post.
FYI, we're getting very close to starting the closed public beta test for Diablo III. You might start seeing some new reports about the beta client as we've begun limited external testing with employees and their families, and there is no non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for that. We look forward to sharing more info about the beta test in the near future. Stay tuned.
If you have a beta license, you are free to show, share, or talk about any portion of the beta content to which you have access, as this beta test is not confidential.

Staff member alex was very helpful. We arrived later than anticipated and he was very understanding as i had no signal to update him as we arrived.
Apartment was modern and airy and had everything we needed except a cot bed so i would not use here if needing this unless you take your own. The sofa bed wasnt this biggest either. Other than that the only issue we had was hot water which alex kindly remedied. Location was good for the sagreda familia but a bit of walk to las ramblas but no major i - Anonymous

The aparment is lovely, in a wonderful location, with a great view over the Puerto Viejo (Port Vell) and a nice terrace to enjoy the view with a glass of wine. It has all appliances you may need, it's very clean and we had no noise on the bedroom, so perfect for a good night sleep. We wanted to stay at Barceloneta (we love this area of town, so close to the beach and the old town, and so lively), so the location couldn't be any better. We would definitely go back again. - Anonymous
Excellent location, great value for money. clean, comfortable, everything just like we expected. we loved the area, plenty of restaurants, tapas, and good athmosphere. The roof terrace is really nice to sit and relax...
Staff was nice and helpfull although we did not need anything during our stay really. - Anonymous
Nice, clean, well organized. We stayed close to Sagrada Famillia & subway station. Across the street there was a super-market, so we could get all the supplies we need. The office is in the old town and we had to take the keys from there but the instructions were very accurate. Everything was more than ok! (Thank you Loida!) - Anonymous

About Friday 14 December 1660
How typical that the conversation at the coffee house turned to the science of nature, instead of song and merriment, as it tends to do at an alehouse. I wonder if Pepys reflected on the surprising stimulative effect of this novel concoction.
About Thursday 29 November 1660
Is there an English teacher aboard who can explain the grammar of the "did/do" construction ("I did step thither," "he did seem very ready . . . did also tell me how thieves did attempt to rob, which do make us all afraid")? There must be one in this erudite group.
Something like it exists in modern English for particular uses ("I really did read the whole book" or "I do love Shakespeare"). But I don't see any such special meaning for it in Pepys, where "did" seems to be just another form of the simple past or present tense, such as survives today in archaic legalese ("defendant did feloniously . . .").
Please forgive me if this topic has been raised and discussed before. I actually have vague recollection of a related discussion, but can't find it now.
