Some of the country's best Sportsman drag racers will descend on Brainerd International Raceway this weekend for Thunder at the Lakes, but the Winner's Circle has a history of filling up with Minnesota racers.
Last year was a good example. Seven of the 12 winners – plus all three Junior Dragster winners – were from Minnesota. Most of them consider BIR their home track, showing how strong the amateur drag racing program in Minnesota is.
Thunder at the Lakes is part of the NHRA's Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series in the West Central Division, which stretches from Wyoming to Wisconsin and from Colorado to Kansas, including part of Canada. Thunder is one of 44 series races across the country this season. Drivers are battling for series points leading to divisional and national championships as well as a chance at a share of a year-end purse totaling more than $500,000.
Drivers from BIR's Bracket Drag Racing Series were among the local racers taking home hardware last year. Larry Wiebusch (Super Street), Henry Wiebusch (Top Dragster), Jimmy Paulson (Sportsman Motorcycle) and Scott Dugdale (Super Street Shootout) were among last year's winners. Cam Giese and Lily Covington earned wins in Junior Dragster classes.
Thunder at the Lakes also includes Comp Eliminator, Super Stock, Stock Eliminator, Super Comp, Super Gas and Top Sportsman – 12 classes in all.
The weekend kicks off with a Test & Tune starting at 11 a.m. Friday, followed by qualifying and time trials starting at 9 a.m. Saturday. Qualifying rounds for Top Sportsman, Top Dragster and Comp Eliminator start at 11 a.m., 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. On Sunday, elimination rounds start at 9 a.m.
In addition to showcasing some top-shelf drag racing, Thunder at the Lakes also signals the start of MegaWeek. Fans can buy tickets for Thunder and then stay all week through the Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals, Aug. 15-18. Most of the drivers who will be racing this weekend will also be racing at Nationals. There are ticket and camping packages that start this Thursday and extend through Monday, Aug. 19.
Daily admission for Thunder at the Lakes is $25, but a three-day ticket is $50. Kids 12 and under are free, and parking is free.

What is Depersonalisation Disorder?
Depersonalisation disorder can be described as the suffering of various uncontrollable forms of anxiety, such as experiencing feelings of detachment or disconnection from the world around you as if you're an outsider looking in. People can often experience short periods of depersonalisation, especially after any kind of trauma or loss and these symptoms will usually pass after a short period of time, however, when these symptoms persist for a continuous period, it is important to seek help in order to get to the root cause.
If you ever get the feeling that you're not quite connected to your body or detached in some way, feel that you are constantly living on autopilot, feel detached from your own thoughts and feelings as if you're going through the motions and these sensations persist over a period of time, you could be suffering from the disorder.
Other symptoms you may experience:
• Overeating
• Have difficulty in concentrating on the simplest of tasks
• Loss of emotional reactivity
• Palpitations
• The sense you have a lack of control over your speech or physical movements
• feelings of anxiety in social and work situations
• Loss of libido
• Memory loss
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and you suspect that you could be suffering from depersonalisation disorder, then in the first instance, a visit to your GP is important prior to seeking any other treatment.
Medication is not usually prescribed unless there are other underlying issues such as depression or anxiety and anti-depressants may be prescribed in those cases. Otherwise, you may be referred for counselling and or psychotherapy.
Hypnotherapy and other complementary, non-invasive treatments can also be used to treat the condition. Sessions can reinforce the link between the inner and outer self, and rebuild the connection that has been lost in cases of depersonalisation disorder. It can also help to restore your sense of control and re-engage you in your own life.
If you would like to try a hypnotherapy session with me after seeking a diagnosis from your GP, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Sarah Palin Continues To Help Shine The Light On Obama's Corruption
Posted by Gary P Jackson on August 27, 2009
Sarah Palin has been on Obama's case for some time, taking shots at him in almost every speech and TV interview since he took office. Sarah warned us about the dangers of electing Barack Obama, but unfortunately, 52 percent of the nation chose not to listen. Now 100 percent of the nation is suffering because of this severe error in judgment.
The problems are many, and real solutions, proven solutions that work, are AWOL in the Obama regime. Many have real questions why Obama and his democrat/communist party are seemingly, deliberately, allowing the economy to crash and burn, while at the same time running up unprecedented, and completely unsustainable debt.
Many wonder what the end game is.
Of course, for those paying attention, we have seen this coming for years. The left wing loons in this country have been overtly pushing for socialism for decades. Back in 1961 Ronald Reagan warned us about socialized medicine as the first step to a complete socialist nation where all liberty and freedom will be destroyed.
Well, Obama and his unconstitutional Czars are about to make Ronald Reagan's upmost fears a reality. As we previously discussed, Obama has some serious anti-American radicals advising him and even writing important legislation, such as the stimulus bill.
We now know that Jeff Jones, a founding member, along with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, of the Weather Underground, is a member of the Apollo Alliance, the group that wrote the stimulus bill that absolutely no one in Congress read before passing, and Obama signed into law.
One man, Glenn Beck, has been all over Obama and his illegal and unconstitutional Czars.
Glenn Beck has been doing a series of discussions on the various Czars all this week, to record ratings, on his afternoon Fox News show.
For her part, earlier in the week, Sarah Palin urged her nearly 900,000 Facebook members to tune in to Becks popular and essential show:
"FOX News' Glenn Beck is doing an extraordinary job this week walking America behind the scenes of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and outlining who is actually running the White House.
Monday night he asked us to invite one friend to watch; tonight I invite all my friends to watch."
-Sarah Palin
This of course, only helps focus attention to the vital information that Glenn Beck has been giving America this week.
It's also interesting to note that no one of any credibility is disputing what Beck or Sarah are saying about Obama's corrupt organization.
Even the White House's only complaint is that Glenn called one of Obama's communist advisors a Czar, when in fact, this man had actually passed Senate confirmation. That was the White House's only objection!
Of course, the main concern over all of the 30 some odd Czars, besides the fact that they are radical communists (most self admit this) is the fact that appointing these Czars, who are officially called "special advisers to the President," is an end run around the Constitution, and the Senate's role of advise and consent over the Presidential appointees to powerful positions.
As many of these Czars have criminal records as well as ties to radicals, such as domestic terrorists, there is no way in hell they would even receive a Senate hearing, let alone be confirmed.
So what Obama has done is set up an illegal shadow government, made up of unelected and unapproved advisers who are answerable only to Barack Obama. They have no accountability to the American people whatsoever. No allegiance to America, or the Constitution, just Obama.
This is NOT what the framers of our Constitution had in mind.
This is the biggest power grab in American history, in what amounts to a coup d'état by a bunch of radical communists.
The similarities between today, and Nazi Germany in the 1930's are staggering. Hitler also usurped his nation's constitution by appointing people without approval. Hitler only convened his cabinet one time, for show, and then relied on his version of Czars, to do his dirty work from then on.
Now is a good time to point out that I catch flack for calling these people communists and radicals, even though Van Johnson, Obama's "green jobs" Czar describes HIMSELF as a "radical communist!"
I also catch hell for comparing Obama to Hitler. But if you can find a better historical parallel, by all means, please let me know. Hitler took over the banks, took over the car companies (the Volkswagen "Beetle" was his idea) and nationalized health care.
Hitler's ideas on eugenics and thoughts on who "deserves" medical care and who doesn't, fall right in line with those of Dr Ezekiel Emanuel, brother to Obama's Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, and an adviser to Obama on health care.
Dr. Death, as we call him, and his extremist ideas that Obama and his thugs embrace wholeheartedly, are the basis for the "death panels" that Sarah Palin so poignantly spoke of.
So let me just insert a quote here from Abraham Lincoln:
"If you call a cow's tail a leg, how many legs does she have?
Lincoln went on to explain that no matter what you choose to call a cow's tail, it's still a tail. So we can call what Obama is doing anything we want. Shoot, make up some hopey-changey sounding name like "rainbows and unicorns for everyone!" But that fact remains, this is communism, plain and simple and all of the sugar coating in the world won't change that. It's time to realize what we face, and tackle it head on.
Anything less is just insane, and very, very dangerous.
Now, on to Glenn Beck. Beck has been really doing the work no other TV journalist dares. He has been exposing all of those who advise Obama. There is not a sane one in the bunch!
Let's start out with a primmer on this bunch as Glenn and Michelle Malkin discuss some of these people and how they were members of radical Marxist groups.
Someone very troubling involved with Obama is Jeff Jones, no relation to Van Jones.
Jeff Jones, as we mentioned above, along with Obama's friend, Bill Ayers was the co-founder of the violent Weather Underground, a group of domestic terrorists who carried out bombings across the nation during their reign of terror, which included bombing the United States Capitol Building, and the Pentagon.
Please go here to meet Jeff Jones, a convicted felon, and a member of the Apollo Alliance, the group that wrote most, if not all of the stimulus package that Barack Obama pushed so hard for. So hard in fact, that no one in Congress was even given the time to read this monstrosity.
This is truly alarming stuff.
But let's soldier on. The Apollo Alliance is made up of serious America hating radicals who worship men like Mao Tse Tung, and Che Guevara. Both mass murders in the name of communism.
Take time to read the info here and here, this will really make you sit up and take notice.
Glenn Beck's latest chapter, in his week long discussion, is about Obama's attempt to silence free speech in America. Now before you roll your eyes, let me remind you this is a thugacracy that urged everyday Americans to turn in other everyday Americans who were saying "fishy" (their words) things about Obamacare, and created email@example.com to facilitate this. So absolutely nothing should be considered too far fetched for this bunch!
Mark Lloyd is Obama's FCC "diversity officer." As you will see in the video below, he is a radical communist who laments that Hugo Chavez's first attempt at setting up a communist dictatorship in Venezuela was thwarted by "enemies" in the United States government who aided the free radio stations in Venezuela and kept an open line of communication out there between the peoples of that once free nation.
That's right, this Lloyd character actually calls AMERICA, the "enemy!"
Are you kidding me?
Insert unnecessarily long, multi-syllable curse word filled rant here:__________
As Beck and Rush Limbaugh explain, the plan isn't to use the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" to silence talk radio. They plan to use various laws concerning "local content' to force national talk radio stars, Like Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Mark Levin off the air, while at the same time funding National Public Radio which is no more than a propaganda arm of the democrat/communist party!
Of course, if those on the left had actual ideas Americans wanted to hear, they would be successful. But in the history of talk radio, which was pioneered by Rush Limbaugh, there has never been a really successful left wing talker. They only exist on government funded radio, and the perennially bankrupt Air America.
With over 20 million listeners weekly, it's obvious that Americans like what Rush Limbaugh is selling, and that aggravates the democrat/communists to no end. You see, they can't compete in the marketplace of ideas, because their ideas are unpopular, and unwanted. Rather than actually come up with ideas though, they'd rather just shut down all debate!
Watch as Glenn And Rush discuss this:
Sarah Palin warned Americans of the dangers of electing Barack Obama as she campaigned for Vice President. The left wing kooks lost their minds, of course, and attacked her as an extremist, but as we are seeing, Sarah was right on the money, as usual.
Now I can't read Obama's mind. He is certainly not the brilliant man, but he is smart enough to not openly talk about communism as strongly as all of those he continually appoints to his team of ever growing numbers of illegal and unconstitutional Czars.
But it is not unreasonable to judge a man by the company that he keeps.
Barack Obama was mentored by radical communist Frank Marshall Davis, from the tender age of 10 years old. Obama himself writes in his book that he sought out the radicals in College. He states that he purposely sought out Marxist professors.
Barack Obama served on two "education" foundations with violent domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and launched his political career in Ayers and wife, felon Bernardine Dohrn's living room.
Barack Obama was a thug organizer for ACORN, teaching the finer techniques of radical communist and America hater Saul Alinsky's "Rules For Radicals," a book Alinsky dedicated to Lucifer (the devil) who he called "the first radical"
Barack Obama has already dispatched union thugs from the Service Employees Union International, which was founded by the same men who founded ACORN, to attack American citizens at townhalls who dare disagree with Obamacare. (Again, go study 1930's Germany for comparisons)
As we wrote earlier, Barack Obama has sent out union thugs, through Facebook, to attack Sarah Palin and all of those who support her through that social network, running advertisements containing outright lies about her.
Again, this is nothing more than an attempt to intimidate those who dare disagree with the "Dear Leader" Obama!
A group that Van Jones, Obama's "green jobs" Czar, an admitted "radical communist" (his words) is involved with is behind the unsuccessful boycott of Glenn Beck's show.
To show you just how intolerant the left wing communist radicals are in this country, look at the latest attempt to silence free speech and free thought:
Whole Foods is a liberal nirvana. They sell overpriced, but very toney, organic and "green" groceries. The Austin, Texas based store is one of the best run out there, and has bought completely into the so-called "progressive" lifestyle.
This is a company that embraces every left wing style of management. And yet, it's a great place to work. Most notably, Whole Foods has an incredible health care program it offers to it's employees. It is truly a blueprint for a free market solution to the nationwide healthcare debate.
So Whole Foods CEO, John Mackey wrote an op-ed that laid out his ideas for a nationwide healthcare plan. Now since this was based on common sense, and actually works, it is totally different from anything resembling Obamacare.
So what has happened?
Well since Mr Mackey had the temerity to go against the wishes of the "Dear Leader, " Obama, his company, which gives money to every left wing cause imaginable, is under siege!
There is a nationwide boycott being organized by communist radicals, some with ties to the Apollo Alliance, and as I'm writing this, I am learning that a group of labor unions are demanding Mr Mackey, the CEO to be fired!
As powerful and dangerous as the labor unions are in this nation, this sort of thing should have every America sitting up and taking notice. The tactics being used by the left are right out of the play books of communist and socialist despots worldwide. Hitler, Mao, Lenin, Stalin, Castro, Chavez and others have successfully used these methods throughout history to destroy liberty and freedom, and set themselves up as absolute rulers of whole populations.
Is this what Obama is angling for?
I honestly don't know.
But it is certainly something the radical left wing communists that work for Obama espouse. They would love nothing more than to silence all dissent and rule over you and I with an iron fist.
These are very dangerous times. Glennn Beck and Sarah Palin are warning you to wake up and smell the coffee! It's time to get involved. To sit up and demand Obama fire all of these Czars, or else.
It's time to rally around solid conservative candidates for office, from dog catcher to President of the United States! No more democrat/communists, and no more squishy "moderate" Republicans who simply serve as enablers to the democrat/communists. We need people who understand and revere the Constitution of the United States.
We must never settle for anything less ever again.
These are very dangerous times, and if we don't get a handle on this, America will cease to exist as we know it. The shining light of freedom will forever go dark.
So go to the tea parties and townhalls. Demand satisfaction from those in elected office. And be silent no more!

Like to know what is this is all about dose the american people know. I am so sick of this where is our country where are the americans.
Whether you are an Obama fan, or not, EVERYONE IN THE U. S. needs to know….
Something happened…
E9-2488 was passed yesterday, behind our backs.
You may want to read about it..
It wasn't mentioned on the news… just went by on the ticker tape at the bottom of the CNN screen.
Obama funds $20M in tax payer dollars to immigrate Hamas Refugees to the USA . This is the news that didn't make the headlines…
By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in "migration assistance" to the Palestinian refugees and "conflict victims" in Gaza ..
The "presidential determination", which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States , was signed on January 27 and appeared in the Federal Register on February 4.
Few on Capitol Hill, or in the media, took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support to the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006.
Let's review…. itemized list of some of Barack Obama's most recent actions since his inauguration:
His first call to any head of state, as president, was to Mahmoud Abbas, leader of Fatah party in the Palestinian territory.
His first one-on-one television interview with any news organization was with Al Arabia television.
His first executive order was to fund/facilitate abortion(s) not just here within the U. S. , but within the world, using U. S. tax payer funds.
He ordered Guantanamo Bay closed and all military trials of detainees halted.
He ordered overseas CIA interrogation centers closed.
He withdrew all charges against the masterminds behind the USS Cole and the "terror attack" on 9/11.
Now we learn that he is allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refuges to move to, and live in, the US at American taxpayer expense.
These important, and insightful, issues are being "lost" in the blinding bail-outs and "stimulation" packages.

Thank you so much Sarah and Glen, Rush,I been saying this from the first time I saw this guy(obama) I knew there was more to him then what he was showing just by the people surrounding him. Now its time we take back our country WE THE PEOPLE.
August 29, 2009 at 7:56 AM
So what we are saying is there is not a single thing we can do to stop this wasteful spending and srop obama from running us further into the ground, i do find it amazing, i rememebr saying before the dnc vought the election that if obummer is put into office we would be in a lot of trouble, of course at that time i could not see how much trouble we would be in,
why is no one is congress trying to stop this appointment of these czars, or even taking the time to read all these massive bills they are trying to push on us, and it is amazing how all these policical leaders have become medical care experts in less than nine months, and while they are telling us we can have this plan and than plan, everything they are saying is opposite what the reform says so how are we not suppose to be mad,
and the fact the govenrment said the there was no death panels in the bill, then said they took them out, then said there is no coverage for illegals, then have said it is not clear what this illegal issue says, even though we all know already
here is what i know, so far, in the past week, glen beck has nailed everything that has come out of the democrats form health care to these civil defence groups, and why do we need these, a civil defense group for what, there is no need for us to have a civil defense?
look back in history this is exaclty how hitler took over germany, the writing is on the wall
August 29, 2009 at 7:05 AM
I am very disturbed by the turn in our system and democracy. Seems that there is a force brewing against our Constitution and our rights. This childrens boot camp is very disturbing, and very undemocratic. This isn't about 'Parties' anymore. The American two-Party system is lost in a network of abuse, manipulation and hidden agendas. Citizens are going to have to quit pointing fingers at each other and start uniting behind a common cause. Freedom would be a good start.
August 29, 2009 at 6:02 AM
Everyone was so quick to jump on the time for a change bandwagon. But Obama never said what the change would be.
Any fool knows that this country is run by money. Now how much money did these drug companies pump into the campain? People!!! we're shooting ourselves in the foot. The other countries in the world have health care. Now why is it that we have to pay. And why is it that you go to a hospital or doctor and you can't understand what they're saying. They're not going to stay in their country. They come here where the rich Americans will pay them.
August 29, 2009 at 1:19 AM
Went to a town hall meeting today in Wasilla. Got told NO SIGNS!!!!! By the cordanatior, so no wonder why we diden't get called on to ask a question…. One read Impeach Obama
August 29, 2009 at 4:46 AM
Thank You for brining hope to America. Why can't we get anything done about Obama's' non-citizen issue? What will it take to get the Idiot out?
He and his wife are making a mockery of the White House and the position!

Generic Drug Immunity Redux
Karen suffered "hell on earth" because of a generic drug, according to her burn surgeon. Is the maker immune from responsibility?
Last week the Supreme Court agreed to hear a case that could have an impact on those who are injured after taking a generic drug.
The new case involves the heartbreaking story of Karen Bartlett, a young active woman who in 2005 developed Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and related injuries that caused over 65% of her skin to burn off. A drug called sulindac, the generic form of the pain medicine Clinoril, caused Karen's suffering. A doctor had prescribed it to help Karen with some minor shoulder pain.
Karen is now living with its terrible effects. Today she is legally blind, cannot read or drive, and is severely disfigured in her face and body. She is lucky to be alive after spending more than 100 days in five hospitals including 70 days in a burn unit, more than a month of which she was placed in a hospital-induced coma. After that she had to be tube fed for a year.
In March, Karen's case will go before the Supreme Court where it will decide if Mutual Pharmaceutical, the maker of Karen's drug, can be held responsible for her life-altering injuries. Lower courts affirmed the jury's verdict that sulindac's risks outweighed its benefits, calling it "unreasonably dangerous." But the generic drug maker appealed and now it's in the hands of a Supreme Court that has already given immunity to the generic industry on cases where they failed to warn patients of a drug's side effects.
Eighty percent of all consumers take generic drugs, either by choice or because of insurance requirements. The problem is what happens when a drug causes an unfortunate injury like Karen's? Who is responsible for that and the resulting medical bills?
We only need to look at Kira to see thousands of people that have lost their right to justice after being injured by a generic drug when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against Gladys Mensing in a case called Pliva v. Mensing. The Court held that because a generic maker follows the brand drug's label, the generic company cannot be held responsible when the generic drug fails to warn about an injury.
We will be watching the case of Karen Bartlett closely as it progresses. There is a lot at stake for consumers.

How To Improve Your Acoustics Without Voice Lessons
The Mishna Brura is a Sefer that stands in its own league. It is a sefer on Halacha that has merited in a relatively very short time to be accepted by all of Klal Yisroel without exception. Moreover, his words are treated like a Rishon, like Rashi or the Rambam where every word is pored over and analyzed.
Rav Yitzchok Kaminetzky says that this is a reward Midah Kineged Midah, for the tzaddik who woke up the world and reminded them that each and every word that comes out of our mouth packs incredible power, both for good and bad. When our words become more important to us, then they will become more important to Hashem as well and be held up for distinction by our peers and even our own family. Wouldn't that be nice?
"Zachor Eis Asher Asa Hashem L'Miriam BaDerech B'Tzaischem MiMitzrayim"
The Ramban and other Rishonim count, among the Mitzvos Aseh Min HaTorah, the mitzva of remembering and saying with your mouth each day what Hashem did to Miriam when she spoke about her brother Moshe. The Chofetz Chaim in Shaar Tvunah Perek 12 says that being Mikayem this mitzva can save you from the aveira of Lashon Hara. More than just saying the pasuk, says the Chofetz Chaim, one must think about the incident in order for it to have its intended effect.

Entrepreneur + Volunteer = Volunteneur
There is no question that the World, the United States, your City has problems. Some are Big Problems; some are Small Problems.
So what are YOU doing about them … Today?
"Somebody should do something!" While being incensed about a problem may have been enough to get some action in the past, it's just not an effective course of action today. Tax revenues down. Public services are being cut. Finding more than a sympathetic ear might be difficult to do.
Volunteer to Help
Now you've got the idea! "If the City is short on resources, then I could volunteer to help. But what's the plan? Can I realistically work as an unpaid volunteer for the City … addressing the problem that is bothering me the most today?" It's possible, but unlikely.
Perhaps you could join others as a volunteer in their private sector initiative…
Strength in numbers! More hands make work light! Excellent!
There are numerous organizations that you could join. Perhaps one of them addresses your specific complaint/problem and you could get some muscle behind the solution.
But what if there isn't someone or some organization that is addressing your particular issue? What if your problem is too small to be on someone else's priority list but still too big for you to ignore?
Become a Volunteneur!
"A what?" We all have an idea of what an "entrepreneur" is … it's someone who sees a problem (or an opportunity), collects various resources/processes and (with a lot of hard work) creates a solution or product. Sometimes the solutions or products are a little unconventional. Sometimes they don't work as planned. But when they work, the entrepreneur is a huge success!
As a "volunteer", you show up somewhere and someone hands you a shovel or a paint brush or a soup ladle and you get to work. You become one of the rowers on someone else's galley. If the planning was good (the galley is pointed the right direction) and the resources adequate (there are enough rowers), the initiative is a success. There is nothing wrong with being a volunteer, but you rarely get to select the target problem or the solution.
Entrepreneur + Volunteer = Volunteneur
Part entrepreneur, part volunteer, a volunteneur looks at a problem from the perspective of a business owner who must solve it, given the available resources and constraints. No one else is going to step up and "fix" what's broken, so YOU have to take charge.
Five Steps to Becoming a Successful Volunteneur
1. Identify / Define the Problem
This is also known as requirements definition. Document all of the problem components. (Write this down.) If you can't define the problem, your success at solving it is greatly diminished.
2. Consider your Available Resources, Constraints and Problem Details
If you don't know what you have available to you, you're likely to overlook solution options or try to build something that can't be completed. The "problem details" would include the "root causes" and any "triggering conditions".
This is the brainstorming session. No solution is too wild or too impractical. Don't worry about the completeness of any single solution option. Several solution options might work better when combined. This exercise often yields additional constraints or problem definition details.
Identify the resource "costs" of each solution. Consider the pro's and con's, along with their potentials for success. Consider solution option combinations that might enhance each other. Select optimal solution(s), build implementation plan. Establish success metrics.
Just because this is an unpaid effort, doesn't mean that it will require less management. Use your business/project management skills to track work according to plan. Encourage your team along the way. Monitor success during and after implementation. Modify solution, as required, to improve the outcome.
Volunteneurism — It's All About Getting It Done
In business, project structure is commonplace. In civic or volunteer environments, good ideas can become lost long before the problem is properly defined. It's so much easier to complain than to do. As a volunteneur, bring your business (get it done) expertise with you and get folks moved off that first square.
Step up, define the problem, identify your resources/constraints/details and get solution options on the table for discussion. Solution discussions can build a sense of decision ownership for volunteers, but keep them moving. Combine and eliminate options to end up with that single direction that you can all pull toward together.
People willing to help with projects that look successful. They just need a leader to get them started and a manager to help them be successful.
Don't leave your expertise at the office. Share your coordination and management skills. You may find that the rewards from your community work far exceed those from your paycheck.

Art Department – Fabric 82
Art Department begins a new chapter, offering up the latest instalment of fabric's revered mix compilation series.
Art Department's story has been one of phenomenal success since the act burst onto the scene five years ago. With a shared musical history in Toronto, the duo of Jonny White & Kenny Glasgow took the world by storm in 2011 with a debut LP on Crosstown Rebels that put them at the centre of underground electronic music. In the intervening years, a seemingly endless worldwide touring schedule, label events, remixes, singles and a follow up album on Jonny White's No.19 Music have meant that the pair were never out of the spotlight. Now a new chapter begins in the narrative, with Jonny White taking the helm as Kenny Glasgow disembarks to pursue a solo career. To ring the changes Jonny delivers his first solo Art Department offering in the shape of this carefully curated 72 minute mix for fabric's definitive compilation series.
At a time of momentous and exciting change for Art Department it's clear that this mix has been incredibly important, bringing into focus the act's long standing relationship with the club. In Jonny's own words, "fabric – the club and the mix series – are still going strong all these years later because they deliver a real, creativity-driven product, night after night, year after year and because people support them the way that they support us, the artists. They've given us a unique platform to work with for so many years and that's what makes the opportunity to record this mix so special."
The mix itself is something quite special indeed. White digs deep to give a glimpse of where he is heading as a DJ, drawing on records old, new and forthcoming to form a seamless and hypnotic audio tapestry. From the muted brilliance of Basic Channel through to classic 90s Matthew Herbert and a couple of sterling remixes from Fred P, there is a clear nod of the head to the sounds that have lent influence, but it all marries perfectly with contemporary recordings from the likes of Rick Wade, Frank & Tony and DJ Boom. There are features from current White collaborators such as DJ Qu and Jonathan Lee and Art Department pop up once, remixed by the aforementioned Fred P. All in all White has delivered a mix that puts aside all preconceptions and dives in with a selection that is deep, dubby and refreshing, a perfect snapshot of where he is at right now.
