Race Team Alliance Expands To 18 Teams
DALLAS (AP) – Nine more organizations have joined the Race Team Alliance to tackle issues facing NASCAR.
The top nine teams had for the first time formed a single entity to collaborate on initiatives that could help them cut costs and communicate with one voice to NASCAR.
The teams added Wednesday are: BK Racing, Circle Sport, Front Row, Germain Racing, Go Green/FAS Lane, HScott Motorsports, JTG Racing, Phil Parsons Racing and Tommy Baldwin Racing.
The RTA already includes Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates, Hendrick Motorsports, Joe Gibbs Racing, Michael Waltrip Racing, Richard Childress Racing, Richard Petty Motor Sports, Roush Fenway Racing, Stewart-Haas Racing and Team Penske.
The RTA now includes 18 teams and 37 full-time entries.
The Race Team Alliance was announced in July, and Michael Waltrip Racing co-owner Rob Kauffman was elected chairman.

This is more about metaphysical energy dynamics.
Things we don't understand as yet.
But it has everything to do with us.
You see, when people play this song, hear it, dance to it, applaud to it, they are giving away their energies. This quantum pack of energy is collected and used to develop its strengths in this realm.
When Rihanna is in concert, with thousands of her fans going crazy , there is a lot of energy being thrown away.
So what they do is to invest a lot into the song, to make it sound catchy and beautiful, attractive so the youngest of fans will love it, and then install the core messages in reverse. You are basically agreeing to the secret reversed messages within the song. Now there is a definite connection between your mind energy and the hidden entity.
It will use this stored energy when the time is right.
Abhie, interesting post. My understanding is that it is only the conscious INTENT of the individual that can define the nature of the energy that is being transmitted. The nature/intent of the stimulus that acted as the catalyst does not claim authority over the energy that is generated or transmitted back unless that energy is of a similar frequency as the source. Energy operates on different wavelengths/frequencies and is not easily transmutable. Distinctions must be highlighted.
Let's say hypothetically that an individual had assumed a very dark state of mind (low vibration) and sought to commit an overt act that would generate anger/hatred (low vibration/frequency energy). If the act is committed, and observers/onlookers were to react and respond with hatred/anger (low frequency emotions of mind) towards the perp, then they are matching the energy level and the prepetrator serves to feed off of that energy and feel empowered by it. If the same act is committed but rather than individuals responding with hatred/anger, they decided to react with empathy/compassion (high frequency emotions of the heart) for those affected by the incident, then the energetic signature is not compatible with the perpetrator's state of mind and he would not be able to feed off that energy. In other words the stimulus itself does not claim authority or ownership over the full spectrum of energy that is generated, only the energy which is compatible or of a similar wavelength/frequency.
In the context of this discussion if I listen to a Beatles song and believe the song about 'Lucy' is a song in reference to a woman or a relationship, that is the association I will make while listening and my conscious intent will dictate the type of energetic response that I generate. Hypothetically, 'Lucy' could be code name for any number of horrible things as created by the intent of the author of the song, but unless I have conscious awareness of the intended meaning, I am unlikely to respond in a manner that is compatible with the energetic frequency of the author's intentions. Does that make sense?
the Beatles themselves publicly claimed the song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was about finding alternative spirituality away from Christianity by using LSD. Then they went into a long diatribe about how they would be more famous than Jesus.
i will find the links/vids for you.
whether you believe in the Luciferian/Satanic agenda, they do. they really do...
The battle on this planet is spiritual - This is so, due to the unique nature, experiential patterns of some souls/higher selfs operating on this planet...
It is not lucifer, devil, satan or any of this kind of thinking...
It is however two different paths clashing... The larger group who have their control mongering ways all over this planet are actively seeking to thwart the other, much smaller groups path...
They view this path as a threat, it is not... It is however, a graduation path... The threat comes from the larger group losing members to the smaller group, and they are losing some of their best...
They have run interferance on other planets in the past to try and derail the path, they were not sucessfull, and they will not be sucessfull here...
They cannot defeat the higher purpose, and reason for participating in this galaxy - eventual graduation... This can only be achieved by being on this unique path, a path of simultaneous incarnations...
They are looking for loopholes, and ways to thwart any further loss of members... Genetic manipulation, energy gathering, chemical and electronic interferance, etc.
They are foolish... The spiritual nature and purpose trumps anything physical, and the path cannot be derailed...
A lesson they have not learned yet, even though they have lost on every other planet like this, they have encountered...
Shortly, we will be graduating, the planetary higher self will be graduating, and they get a lifeless rock...

I'm new to frame building, and new to fatherhood, and I'm trying to tie the two together. I'd like to build my boy a small BMX bike, but am having trouble finding parts (and geometry, for that matter). Does anyone know of a source for short cranks, small wheels or rims (16", maybe even 12"?), and any/all other parts in kid size? Thanks in advance,

Sorry if it's taking me a long time to get to your questions and messages, but I'm trying, just a bit overwhelmed.
You've arrived in Wonderland, that's good. Alice is dead, that's bad. You don't know who you are, that's the worst.
Do you have what it takes to get out of Wonderland, and more importantly, figure out who you are?
Just a note, this game is unappologetically hard with some of the puzzles. It's a puzzle game, it's not meant to be easy. However, SHOULD you need help, there is a friendly walkthrough button right in the game.
I hope you guys enjoy this, it was a blast to make. Stay tuned for Episode 2!

A good adition to our Adventure flash collection.
We all know the premise of a dark Wonderland, nothing new here. There were alternate versions of the tale, American McGee twisted it like nobody's business, and Tim Burton might make a crazy version of it (don't hold your breath for that, though).
But what makes this game so good is that it doesn't rely on the whole "Wonderland is doomed" thing, that is just the setting. No, what makes you want to finish it is the ambiguity of your character and its motives. Alice is Dead - Episode 1 is a by-the-book point & click adventure that works on inventory manipulation and deep inspection of your surroundings.
The backgrounds and music do a good job creating the familiar yet dim atmosphere of the new Wonderland, and the scribbled messages and item descriptions add to the overall entertainment. There was an uneasy feeling of linearity, but it wasn't detrimental on the playthrough. What was somewhat dissapointing is that items that go together don't look that way at first glance and there is a good chance you will get stuck at some point. All in all this game shouldn't take more than 1 hour to complete, which is all right since it's just the first episode.
In closing, Alice is Dead - Episode 1 is a good adition to our collection of Adventure flash games, and altought is somewhat harder than most games, the ambiguity of your chacarter's identity and motives, the familiar Wonderland setting, and the unexpected ending will make most players want to finish it.
its a good game first of all. this is one of those games where you KNOW something is gonna pop out and get ya. and that is the most exiciting part! but... it was really easy. and it was too short. 9/10. a really good score for a really good game!
I loved the music. I've always liked oldies anyway, but this one just set the mood. The ending was completely unexpected and I liked it. My only complaint is the wish that it was a little longer, and that there was a use for those items. The bell just rang?
alice is dead =p yaaaaaaaa
great game very creepy like American Mc'gees alice. whats the name of that song thats playing.

Arima Ederra - Old New School Love
Artist: Arima Ederra
Producer: Airlocke
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 3 votes )
When a healthy respect for the past comes together with a willingness to experiment, great music is often the result. And if the formula works for pop songwriting, why shouldn't it hold equally true in the romantic arena? An unsigned R&B songstress whose retro, yet progressive style has earned her rave reviews from our readership, Arima Ederra goes out looking for some Old New School Love on her latest promo single. Airlocke uses a light touch on the production tip, laying languid brass chords over a leisurely rhythm selection as the singer/songwriter celebrates a relationship that's perpetually new and exciting, yet reassuringly familiar. This silky-smooth cut isn't part of a larger project, but fans should keep it locked to the Booth for the latest on Ederra's next project, an album-length collaboration with beatsmith Bhonstro.

Egyptian cinema aims to bridge mideast/west divide by creating better understanding of each other's culture.
Middle East Online
By Audrey Stuart - CANNES, France
Stars of 'The Yacoubian Building'
Egyptian cinema is making waves at this year's Cannes film market with a handful of audacious new-look movies exploring the region's social and political problems which are helping to fan Islamic fundamentalism. The far-reaching aim of these films, however, goes beyond provoking a debate about issues that remain taboo. The goal of the films' producers, Good News Group, is to bridge the Middle East/Western divide by creating a better understanding of each other's culture. "We need to mend the bridge between the two cultures," stressed Emad Eldin Adeeb, the high-profile Arab journalist known locally as "Murdoch of the Nile", who founded and heads-up the giant media group. "We are starting to open minds on a lot of taboos," he said in an interview, adding, "the time is ripe to start discussions." "The Yacoubian Building", which scooped the prize for the best new narrative filmmaker at this year's New York's Tribeca Film Festival and, more particularly, a planned movie about the Al-Qaeda terrorist group, have been creating a stir here at the world's premier market for buying and selling films. The pipeline movie about Osama bin Laden, head of the Al-Qaeda network and the world's most wanted man, has also caught the eye of Robert de Niro, one of the world's most respected actor/directors and co-founder of the Tribeca festival. De Niro wants to see the script when it is completed next month, Adel Adeeb, Emad's brother and head of group's GN4 Film and Music arm, said. But though De Niro is interested in the project, which will start shooting next year, he is not planning on playing one of the characters, he emphasised. The movie will revolve around an imaginary meeting between an American journalist and bin Laden in which both men explore their completely opposing views of world politics. "Our aim is not defend bin Laden" but to help create a dialogue between the Western and Middle Eastern worlds, leading to a better understanding between them, underlined both brothers. "It's critical now to open up the issues and put them on the table," said Adel Abeeb. The film will be a co-production and the group has already had an approach from a prospective French partner keen to be involved in the project, he said. The Egyptian group's timing to do a film exploring the reasons behind the rise of Al-Qaeda looks promising. Hollywood has shied away until now from being seen as cashing in on the September 11 attacks on the US. But clips from two new American films tackling the dramatic events were shown this week here at the festival and others are likely to follow. With a strong slate of new films about to hit the cinemas and in the pipeline, Emad Adeeb is hoping to restore Egypt's large but often low-quality film industry to its former glory. Although not selected for any of the competition categories at the 12-day festival, "The Yacoubian Building" has attracted enormous interest here from many North African and Middle Eastern countries, including Tunisia, Algeria, Lebanon and Turkey, the group said. The film is an adaptation of Alaa Al Aswani's best-selling novel, which has sold over 100,000 copies and been translated into English. With its faded splendour and impoverished group of motley occupants "The Yacoubian Building" mirrors the dilemmas and problems of modern day Egypt, which have also helped fan Islamic fundamentalism. The big-budget film, along with Group's other new movie "Halim" about the life and struggles of legendary Arab singer Abdel Halim Hafez are both expected to score big successes throughout the region when they are released shortly. "The Yacoubian Building", however, might also score internationally. The film has already been sold to France and will soon also be shown in the US-market. Emad Adeeb believes the cinema is "an ideal vehicle" to stimulate discussion about taboo subjects such as political corruption, alcohol, homosexuality and sexual promiscuity. "We are starting to open minds on a lot of taboos," he said. In a very young country where the average age is around 30 and Internet penetration is low, "movies can make huge changes," pointed out Emad Adeeb.

This will definitely assist you take your tablet in a consistent manner and therefore, additional support in easy fat burning.

Best customer service vijay from Dublin, OH– Verified Buyer I am giving a 5 start for this product as I have seen the best customer service from wayfair on this product. Technically, I am new to wayfair with only 3-4 months of experience in buying products. I had this product delivered to me but had some issues with the product as it was little damaged. When I called wayfair, the kind of service I have received was outstanding. The customer support team immediately responded to me and said that they will replace another item for the damaged one and they were very fast in sending the same. And coming to this product, I am using this in my dining table and there is not even a single instance where we haven't received a great appreciation from our neighbors and relatives when they see this product on our dining table. This is been the best item in the dining room which blends well with the wall hanging with the different colors and shades. I think if the size of this item is reduced about 4-6 inches, then this can be used for giving gifts to friends and relatives in a well packed size. I greatly recommend this product. |
Unique Jean from Ridgeley, WV– Verified Buyer This sculpture is the perfect centerpiece for my kitchen island. I searched for a long time for something different , colorful and unbreakable. It is exactly what I wanted. I do not like any clutter on the island and the fruit sculpture really stands out. |
Eye Catching But Larger Than You Think Kyle from Cary, IL– Verified Buyer These fruit are eye-catching, homey and sophisticated all at the same time. Even though I read what others wrote, I was still caught off-guard with how large this is. I was going to give it as a gift, but my friend's house is small, so I opted to keep it for myself. I'm glad I did. Every time I walk by it, I smile. |
Miss. L.G. Linda from Winfield, KS– Verified Buyer We order things and are disappointed that they are not what we thought they would be. Not in |
A heather from new bern, NC– Verified Buyer exactly what i wanted and a descent size colors are true to the picture i am happy with this purchase |
Pleasant surprise Nancy from Goodrich, MI– Verified Buyer It turned out to be more substantial than I anticipated and didn't work where I originally planned it. The fruit does have a circumferential seam that I didn't notice in the picture. The quality of the piece is good. |
Pleased with this product Me from Texas– Verified Buyer Just got this today and I love it! It is the perfect size for the counter top where it will sit I wish the colors were exact, but I get that photos can cause colors to vary from the original products true color. All and all... it's different and very, very pretty. Happy Customer with this one. |
Fruit sculpture Marisa from Renton, WA– Verified Buyer Great scale and workmanship. Unfortunately this is being returned as the small fruit (cherry or small apple?!!) is not distinct enough from the bigger apple. The color is too similar to the apple and is not as pictured. |
Very colorful Beth from Gilmer, TX– Verified Buyer I put this on a shelf above my desk in the kitchen and it is perfect. It is a nice size and looks great, gave me lots of color in my yellow kitchen. I love it. Weight is good, not too heavy. I love shopping for unique pieces at Wayfair, haven't seen this in any local stores. |
Gorgeous fruit sculpture! Henry from Hialeah, FL– Verified Buyer I was looking for a different dinning table centerpiece... and when I saw this sculpture I just fell in love with it!... It looks very pretty and match perfectly even modern or contemporary or traditional style. |
Loft Fruit Sculpture is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: 68134

Joe Donahue's Interview with William S. Cohen Part I
Albany, NY – William Cohen was the 20th United States Secretary of Defense under President Clinton and was a member of the house and Senate for 24-years before that. Since leaving office, he has headed up the Cohen Group.
But, he has also been writing novels - In fact he has published many - including one he co-wrote with Former Senator Gary Hart. But, his latest is Dragon Fire and draws from his experience as Secretary of Defense to scare the zippers off of you. Joe Donahue asked him - why fiction...because, couldn't he accomplish that with non-fiction?
The name of Secretary Cohen's new book is Dragon Fire. It is published by Forge. Tomorrow, we will talk with the Secretary about the Clinton years, Partisan Politics and his thoughts on the current Secretary of Defense.

The Old City: Leviathan is a first-person game about exploration and storytelling. Set within, beneath and around an abandoned metropolis, it doesn't contain any puzzles or combat, concentrating instead on the musings of its narrator, and the discovery of histories, personal and otherwise. I've spent some time investigating the belly of the beast in a preview build and I'm not quite sure whether to recommend a visit or send out a call for urban renewal.

In this WORLD even CAPITAL LETTERS go ROGUE
The PREVIEW we WROTE about LORDS of the FALLEN
By Rich Stanton on October 24th, 2014.
I'm not usually one to judge a book by its cover, so to speak, but the capitalisation of LORDS of the FALLEN just has me tickled. It suggests we should shout the first word but then drop to a whisper and, when listeners are lulled into a false sense of security, scream the last syllables like a BANSHEE. If you're thinking 'only an angry nutter would do that' then welcome, my genteel friend, to LORDS of the FALLEN.
Hands On: Elegy For A Dead World
By John Walker on October 17th, 2014.
Elegy For A Dead World is undeniably quite a diversion for the developers Dejobaan Games, they behind AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! — A Reckless Disregard for Gravity and Drunken Robot Pornography. It's an extremely sedate concept, that aims to turn anyone into a storyteller.
Satellite Reign: Hands-On With Cyberpunk's Rising Star
By Jim Rossignol on October 13th, 2014.
Back when I interviewed Syndicate-veteran Mike Diskett about his plans for Satellite Reign, I was buoyant with excitement: he spoke of systems, not scripting, and of sprawling cyberpunk cities playing host to mad shoot 'em freedom, just like we were promised in the old days. Now, having spent some time with the "pre-alpha" test release that the team have put out to backers, I can say that this excitement was, mercifully, a precursor to an even deeper feeling: intense anxiety.
Anxiety? Yes, because this early, incomplete build demonstrates that the 5 Lives team know exactly what they doing, and all we can do now is wait, nervously, to see if they pull it off for the full game.
Mushroom 11 Hands-On: The Future Sound Of Fungus
By Alec Meer on October 3rd, 2014.
Mushroom 11 is a sort of physics puzzle-platformer about a mutant organism that will always grow back to its original mass, regardless of how much of it you prune away. By doing this, you traverse a ravaged landscape filled with hazards and foes. I played a section of it at EGX last week.
Hands On: Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna)
By John Walker on October 3rd, 2014.
I love what Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) is setting out to do. It's a platform game – very simple, very traditional, presented in a lovely, misty way – about a young Iñupiat girl and an arctic fox. And at the same time, it's an attempt to communicate information about the Iñupiaq culture of Alaska. A preview version I've had my hands on contains the first three of nine chapters, giving a fair idea of how it all fits together.
Heat Signature: Hands-On With The Gunpoint Follow-Up
By Alec Meer on October 2nd, 2014.
Important proviso – all screens and video in this piece show placeholder art. The finished Heat Signature will apparently look very different – there are some hints to its possible final appearance here, however.
"I think the subtitle of the game should be 'You Can Go Inside The Spaceships'," jokes Heat Signature dev Tom Francis as he shows me his follow-up to break-out hit Gunpoint at EGX last week. "I can already tell it's going to have the Gunpoint problem where I say 'I made a game called Gunpoint' and they say 'I don't think I've heard of that', then I explain what the game is and they're "oh yeah, I've heard of that, but I just didn't remember the name because it has nothing to do with what you do in it." A pause. "This does have heat in it, at least."
Skynet Versus Cthulhu: Human Resources
By Adam Smith on October 2nd, 2014.
Human Resources has one of the finest elevator pitches I've ever heard. The Singularity comes to pass, the machines rise, and humanity awakens a host of Lovecraftian horrors on the same day. It's a tale of duelling apocalypses. Skynet vs Cthulhu, with humanity caught in the middle. The Kickstarter page has just gone live for Uber's strategy followup to Planetary Annihilation, and I spoke to design director John Comes and art director Nate Simpson to learn about the end of everything.
Virginia Hands-On: 30 Flights Of Lynchian
By Alec Meer on September 30th, 2014.
Virginia is an upcoming first-person 'interactive drama' infused with unabashed Twin Peaks and X-Files influences, which had already very much piqued the interest of Alice and Adam. I played a short demo build at the EGX games show over the weekend.
It's not fair on any game that's primarily about tone and mood to experience it whilst sat a stone's throw from a man bellowing into a PA system about Street Fighter. That was murder-mystery Virginia's lot at EGX, sadly, but testament to how well its demo pulls off a languid Lynch-does-police-procedural style is that I nonetheless had a moment when I closed my eyes and let its sounds – and all they meant – wash over me.

Civilization Beyond Earth: 200 Turns On The Final Frontier
By Alec Meer on September 26th, 2014.
A whole new world. A new fantastic point of view.
…I'm so sorry.
However, I am pleased to report that sci-fi strategy game Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth is not simply Civ V with green face paint on. It has the same hexes and it does have much of the same infrastructure as its historical-themed predecessor, but its transformation into something alien goes far more than miasma-coated skindeep. The essential framework of Civ remains, but the final frontier – for the 200 turns with beta code I've spent there – requires a very different sort of thinking.
Hands On: The Crew
By Brendan Caldwell on September 25th, 2014.
The Crew will see players zooming around a huge map of the United States and teaming up with friends for various feats of speed-freakery. We sent Brendan to take an early look at Ubisoft's 'MMO racer'.
The open-world racer was perfected on PC in 2009. I'll let John and Jim argue over whether it was Burnout Paradise or Fuel that holds the honour. In terms of videogame history debates, I'm happy just to get the date right. Ubisoft, on the other hand, are not a company to let such claims rest. In a couple of months they are releasing The Crew, an MMO racing game with 6000 miles of reconstructed USA to zoom around. The titular Crew is, in keeping with an emerging Ubi-trend, you and three pals, each sitting pretty in your souped up Ford Mustang, Ferrari, Lamborghini or Other.
Hands-On: This War Of Mine
By Adam Smith on September 24th, 2014.
This War Of Mine is a game set in the ruins of a wartorn city. Rather than playing a soldier on either side of the conflict, as is traditional in the world of games, players control a group of civilians who are trying to survive in a place where the essentials of life are thin on the ground. The game doesn't match its mechanics to its theme as smoothly and powerfully as Papers, Please, instead opting to tread unfamiliar ground in familiar shoes. It's a resource management game, in which survivors craft, explore and scavenge to survive. I played through the first few days and discovered the irony of it all.
World Of Warships Hands-On: Overcoming Skepticism
By Graham Smith on September 9th, 2014.
World of Tanks makes sense. It's Counter-Strike with moveable turrets; angry houses hiding behind placid houses, streets like corridors, cannons like machineguns, machineguns also like machineguns.
World of Warplanes makes sense, sort of, on paper. Planes. They're like tanks but they fly. Except there's no cover in the sky, and enemies could be in front, behind, beside or above you. So you sort of just wheel around in circles forever and it's alright.
World of Warships? That doesn't make sense at all. How the hell would you make a multiplayer game out of something like that?

Booth's team have yet to score a point in their Formula 1 history but he is confident that the Ferrari-powered MR03 can move them up the grid.
"Although we did not meet our mileage target in pre-season testing, the positive work we did achieve, particularly last week in Bahrain, has been extremely valuable in terms of validating our calculations for the MR03 and finalising our specification for Melbourne," said Booth.
"We are in good shape, both in terms of the car and as a maturing racing operation,...

BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) -- Locally known as the Mane Garrincha Stadium, the 70,000-capacity Estadio Nacional in Brasilia was completed last year for the Confederations Cup and will host seven matches at this year's World Cup.
The stadium was named in honor of Garrincha, a striker who helped Brazil win the 1958 and 1962 World Cup along with Pele.
The construction of the stadium has been criticized because Brasilia doesn't have a top football club, and there are fears the venue - one of the most expensive built for the World Cup - will become a ''white elephant.'' There are similar fears about stadiums in Natal, Cuiaba and Manaus.
The city of Brasilia was built in the late 1950s to replace Rio de Janeiro as the nation's capital. It's known for its remarkable architectural features, many of them built by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer. It is the center of the country's political life and its grid layout gives it a different feel from other cities in the country.
Play begins on June 15 with Switzerland facing Ecuador. Other matches are: Colombia vs. Ivory Coast on June 19; Cameroon vs. Brazil on June 23; and Portugal vs. Ghana on June 26. The stadium will also host a match in the round of 16, another in the quarterfinals and finally the third-place match.

Epworth 17.99 (07162 0609 9); Church Times Bookshop 16.2A muted spiritual health-check: Nick Shepherd hoped to heaadolescents talking, but doesn't
THIS BOOK, like previous works that have come from Francis and his team athe University of Wales, Bangor, examines adolescent faith and spirituality ithe context of contemporary society. This particular study has its origins iwork undertaken for the Commission on Urban Life and Faith. Perhaps because othis, the authors address their findings and recommendations to urban planners
There is nothing specifically urban about the research, however. It assessethe impact on young people's spiritual health of a variety of more generasocial factors, such as gender (or "sex", as the authors prefer), the influencof schooling, religious affiliation, north-south geographical location, anothers.
The book is well referenced from an academic point of view, and, for thgeneral reader, very readable.
In the opening chapter, the authors define and defend their quantitativmethodology. Chapter Two, "Spiritual Health", defines and discusses the centratheoretical term of the book, building on the work of the Australian researcheJohn Fisher.
Spiritual health is used, in part, to indicate that spirituality may have broader impact on a person's sense of well-being. It is also a definition thagrows out of Francis's earlier work in debating the part played by faith anspirituality in education, where commonality with other disciplines and a"operational model" for empirical investigation are required. In Chapter Threethe authors propose that Fisher's four domains of spiritual health unlock aunderstanding of young people's general well-being.
The premise of the book stands or falls, then, on the viability and value othis analytical tool. I have some reservations about it; but in general it is helpful way of connecting data about young people's beliefs and religioupractices, and their sense of self-esteem and appreciation of community.
The bulk of the book considers the way in which different social factorimpact on the spiritual health of young people, as is revealed in answers to survey undertaken in schools in the late 1990s. There is a wide range odetailed work here, but the study does not come to any startling conclusionsCertain factors show a statistical impact on spiritual health (as defined), ancertain don't.
Affiliation to a religion (Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, anSikhism are examined in Chapters 14-18) is generally positive on all markersbut it shows interesting differentiation as well. The experience of a brokehome is generally negative to spiritual health.
Some factors show competing effects: young people who have a habit of prayehave strong spiritual health in some aspects, but negative correlations iothers. For instance, a greater sense of purpose accompanies doubts and worrie(the personal domain), and greater support from parents goes with a highelikelihood of being bullied (the communal domain).
All of this information is stimulating, but is too muted to be "thadolescent voice" I hoped to hear.
My annoyance probably stems from my own methodological bias. Quantitativstudies can and do shed light on young people's practices, preferences, anplace in society. I think an opportunity has been missed here, however, talign the well-founded survey work with qualitative exploration. Both thsurvey instrument and Fisher's lens of spiritual health have been generatethrough interview-based enquiry with young people; and what I felt was missinwas actual voices.
It would be very interesting to see how the assessments posited in this boosit alongside comments from young people on how spirituality affects theisense of well-being, and how different social influences shape this.
Also irritating was the placing of theological reflection in a singlchapter at the end of the book. The discussion here of the theological notioof hope seemed to me quite disconnected from the rest of the study, and did nobegin to address adequately the complexity and contrast that the rest of thdata suggest, either directly or by pointing to wider literature.
What the book does well is to provide a rigorous quantitative study that cabe drawn upon in future research into young people's spirituality. The findingprovide insight into how work that fosters young people's spiritual developmencan be part of a strategy to enhance their general well-being.
As this is a central issue in youth work within, from, or outside thChurch, it is a useful book for youth workers, ministers, and religioueducators to read and evaluate.

Real Change: The Fight for America's Future (Paperback)
Not currently shipping from publisher – Subject to future availability
Americans don't just want change this election year, they want real change--but most have no idea where it will come from. Democrats can't provide it and Republicans won't. But former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich does. He explains what is wrong with our country and how to solve our problems in his blockbuster new book, Real Change: From the World That Fails to the World That Works.
In this no-holds-barred assessment of American politics, Gingrich approaches our nation's problems with a private-sector mentality and an entrepreneurial spirit, offering commonsense solutions for the issues of today and the challenges of tomorrow.
He lambasts both parties for creating a "government of the bureaucrats, by the consultants, and for the special interests" and busts the myth that voters are entrenched in a "red state" vs. "blue state" mentality. Gingrich exposes the truth: Americans are united on almost every important issue. It's the politicians who drag us into partisan bickering and away from real change.

United States Patent 3,197,169 CELLULOSIC PRGDUCTS Howard N. Nelson, Neenalr, Wis, assignor to Kimberly- (Ilarlr orporation, Neenah, Wis, a corporation of Delaware Filed July 31, 1962, Ser. No. 214,462 8 Claims. (Cl. 22937) This invention relates to improvements in shipping containers and the like, with particular references to boxboard cartons. A primary object of the invention is to provide improvements in carton end flap closures. Another object is to provide an improved adhesive seal on cartons of the type commonly employed in the packaging of light weight articles in relatively large cartons of light weight fiberboard stock. Another object is to improve the end flap construction of cartons of the full economy type commonly shipped knocked down, thereby insuring, upon assembly, a more effective adhesive seal, hence a stronger carton. Another object is to provide improvements in the hinging of carton end flaps in a manner to improve subsequent gluing and assembling operations. A further object is to provide a carton securely sealed against the entrance of foreign elements such as dust, dirt and small animal life. a Other objects and advantages will become apparent to persons skilled in the art, upon examination of the drawings and description, without departure from the concepts herein taught or defined in the appended claims. In the drawings, in which like parts are identified by corresponding reference numerals, FIG. 1 shows in perspective a carton incorporating the inventive principles herein taught. FIGS. 2 and 3 are vertical longitudinal sections of the carton of FIG. 1 extending through one of a pair, of inner end flaps and both of a pair of outer end flaps forming a sealed closure at one end of the carton. FIG. 4 illustrates in enlarged detail the structure of FIG. 2. FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective View illustrating deficiencies of prior art structures which the present invention eliminates. FIGS. 6 and 7 are fragmentary perspective views of alternate hinge line constructions. I FIG. 8 is a plan view of a carton blank showing the hinge line configurationfor the inner flaps in one embodiment of the invention. FIG. 9 is a fragmentary view of a carton blank showing another variation of the inner flap hinge line. FIG. 1 illustrates the inventive concepts as incorporated in a generally rectangular carton, generically designated 10, an end closure thereof being shown partially open prior to final closure and gluing. A pair of inner flaps, generically designated 12, 14 comprise integral extensions of side wall 16 and an opposite side wall, not shown. The inner end flaps are defined by lines of weakening which serves as a hinge line, such as by lines of embossing which insure retention of maximum corner strength. As shown in FIG. 5, a portion of an outermost flap may be difilcult to seal, due to the thickness of the stock, hence may permit access to the carton interior to allow dust or small insects to find entrance to the carton interior. The infolding of outer flap 18 as shown in FIG. 5 (the inner flaps are not shown) positions the side margin thereof against the rigid corners between the side walls and the inner end flaps which provide a rigid marginal backing. When carton sheet stock is of negligible thickness, as for example kraft paper or the like, a second outer flap 20 may overlap the free margin 22 of flap 13 without a resultant spacing therebetween, as illustrated by channel 24. However with thicker stock, such as boxboard, the sheet stock is ramped in a plane leading from upper corner 26 to the free margin 22 of flap 18, and the interflap spacing 24 results. It is common practice to apply glue only to the inner surface of overlapped flap 20. A thin film of glue thus applied to a very thin flap results in elfective sealing, since as flaps 18, 20 are brought into pressed engagement outer flap 20 will deform sufficiently along margin 22 to close channel 24, and the adhesive bond will prevent its spring back. However in boxboard cartons of the type employing, for example, sheet stock of a 20 mil thickness or greater, resulting channel 24, especially adjacent the free margin 22 of flap 18, may not be completely closed due to stock deformation andthe film of glue applied to the under surface of flap 20. Even though channel 24 maybe closed during the pressurized sealing of flap 20 in partially overlapped relation to flap 18, the non-overlapped, or upper portion thereof as shown in FIG. 5, after being forced into tight sealing engagement with the corresponding area of the underlying inner flap, may spring back with resultant re-opening of channel'24; Cartons of the type herein illustrated are commonly employed to house articles such as sanitary napkins and medicinal bandages requiring complete protection from the infiltration of dust and insects to the cartoninterior. Many such cartons are of sufficient size to require the employment of sheet stock within the above mentioned thickness range, hence the problem of obtaining aneilective carton end closure while employing a minimum of sheet stock has long. been an industry problem. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, inner flaps 12, 14 are integral extensions of corresponding side Walls 16 formed by hinge lines extending transversely of side Wall 16. Each hinge line consists of general lines of weakening comprising two relatively oifset segments. The'hinge line segments preferably consists of lines of embossing, with one of said segments such as upper segments 28 being at least in part laterally offset as shown at 30 from at least a portion of the remaining segment 32. It is preferable that one of the hinge line segments 28, be disposed obliquely of the other segment 32, or that they both be ob liquely disposed in respect to terminal points of the hinge line, rather than being disposed in parallelism. The seg ments may however be disposed in parallelism if it is not mandatory that corresponding upper and lower corners of the end closure structure be positioned in exact vertical alignment. FIG. 6 illustrates a hinge line consisting of an upper segment 28a extending obliquely outwardly of corner 34a to a position of maximum offset at 30a in respect to a vertical segment 32a. FIG. 7 shows segment 28b oliset in parallelism to lower vertical segment 32b. The FIG. 6 structure permits vertical alignment of carton corners 34a, 36a, whereas the FIG. 7 structure results in a slight vertical ofiset of corresponding corners 34b, 36b. FIGS. 8 and 9 give a clearer picture of the inventive concept by showing plan views of a typical carton blank having segmented hinge lines for the inner flaps in which the hinge line segments are olfset. In FIG. 8, inner flap 12 is shown connected to side wall 16 by a hinge line composed of two offset segments 28a and 32a. Segment 28a extends obliquely outward from corner 34a to a point of maximum offset at 30a in respect to segment 32a. Inner flaps 14, 15 and 17 are shown with similar segmented hinge lines where connected to the side walls. When the blank is folded on these segmented hinge lines in setting up the carton, the resulting corners take on the configuration shown in FIG. 6. - ta 1 FIG. 9 is a fragmentary view showing a modified hinge ine. side panel 16 by a hinge line having offset segments 28b and 32b. This arrangement differs from FIG. 8 in that segment 28b extends from corner 34!) in parallelism with segment 32b, rather than obliquely. The segments are offset at point 30b. vWhen a blank is folded on this type of segmented hinge. line in setting up the carton, the resulting corners take on the configuration shown in FIG. 7. While optimum end sealing is' obtained through the employment of both an offset hinge line separating the paired carton walls from the respective inner flaps; combined with an offset shoulder line 38 extending along each of the inner flaps in registry with the hinge shoulder offset 30, the invention is not necessarily limited to the inclusion of both of those features. Even in the absence of a shoulder 38 extending across or partially across each of the end flaps, portions of each inner flap adjacent the offset portion 30 of the hinge line are forced into planes offset as the result of the inward folding of the inner flaps. It thus is apparent that upon complete inward folding of that outer flap the end margin of which isbrought into registry with the hinge line shoulder 38, at least corner portions of the flap will assume a recessedrelation to adjacent centersurfaces of each inner fiap throughout at least a small area. Upon infolding and sealing the remaining outer fiap to the three flaps thus infolded an effective seal may be obtained in the absence of an objectionable channel-like opening such as shown at 24, FIG. 5. However since reliance must be placed on relatively small portions of the flap. structure to retain the seal against opening, it is preferable that the inner fiap shoulder line 38, as shown at FIG. 1 be combined with the offset hinge line shown therein to insure that the seal is, maintained throughout larger portions of the surfaces of flaps 12 and 18, respectively. a r Other modifications and adaptations of the invention will become apparent to persons skilled in the art without departure from the concept taught herein, the scope of which is defined in the appended claims. I claim: 1. In a carton fabricated of box-board sheet stock, a pair of end flaps comprising integral extensions of opposite cartonwalls and defined by hinge lines including a pair of linear segments, portions of which are laterally offset one from the other in non-overlapping relation, whereby infolding of said flaps in right angularity to said walls results in the formation of a shouldered hinge line while effecting the positioning of adjacent areas of the flap surface in planes offset one fromthe other. 2. Thecarton of claim 1 including a second pair of end flaps in right angularity to said first pair of flaps extending from a second pair of opposed carton walls and adapted to be overlapped to enclose said first pair of flaps, the underlying flap of said outer pairbeing dimen- In this figure, inner flap 12 is shown connected to V sioned for recessed registry of marginal portions thereof with the shoulder portion of said hinge line. 3. The device of claim 2' wherein the shouldered portion of said hinge line is of a depth substantially equal to the thickness of the carton sheet stock. 4. The carton of claim 2 wherein both pairs of flaps are folded inwardly with one of the 'outer flaps partially overlapping the other and adhesively bonded thereto and to the uppermost planar portions of the two inner flaps. 5. In a carton fabricated of box-board sheet stock, a pair of end flaps each formed as an integral extension of opposite carton walls by a hinge line extending transversely of the wall, said hinge line comprising two portions offset one from the other in non-overlapping relation, and an offset shoulder extending from a positio n of registry with said fold line offset and longitudinally of each flap in parallel spaced relation to the side margins thereof, whereby inward folding of saidflaps in right angularity to their associate walls positions flap portions adjacent said shoulder in offset non-planar relationship. 6. In the carton of claimS, a second pair of end flaps each formed as an integral extension ofthe remaining two carton walls by a straight hinge line extending transversely of said walls, saidsecond pair of flaps being disposed in right angularity to said first pair of end flaps and adapted for inward folding over said'first pair of end flaps, one flap of said second pair being of a size to position the free end marginthereof, when folded inwardly, in registry with the offset shoulders of the inner flaps and with the outer surface thereof in substantially co-planar relationship to the outermost offset surfaces of said first mentioned flaps. 7 7. The carton of claim 6 wherein portions of said first mentioned flaps are offset to an extent generally corresponding to the thickness of the carton sheet stock to provide a recess for the reception of the free end of an outer flap in substantially flush relationship to the remaining portion of said recessed flap. 7 8. In a carton fabricated of box-board sheet stock, a pair of end flaps comprising integral extensions of opposite carton walls and defined by hinge lines extending transversely of each wall and each including linear segments, portions of which are laterally offset one from the other in non-overlapping relation, one of said segments extending obliquely from a maximum position of offset to a wall side margin, whereby said flaps are inwardly pivotable about a common axis disposed normally of said sidewalls.
