Get the Ideal Refrigeration Equipment from Beverage Air Here at Rapids Wholesale
Beverage Air, which was founded in 1944, is a leading manufacturer of commercial refrigeration equipment for the food-service and beverage industries. Here at Rapids Wholesale, you can get industry-leading quality refrigeration equipment that includes reach-in refrigerators, commercial reach-in freezers, glass chillers, beverage cooler refrigerators, and more.
Commercial Reach-in Freezers, Reach-In Refrigerators, and Undercounter Refrigerators
Industrial reach-in refrigerators and commercial freezers are actually commercial-style models of ordinary kitchen fridges and freezers. The difference, however, is that commercial refrigerators and freezers may feature more drawers or shelves compared to home units, and with good reason: a commercial kitchen in a bar, restaurant, deli, or other food-service or beverage-service establishment requires more food and beverage items as well as ingredients for it to function well and to sufficiently and effectively serve customers and patrons.
On the other hand, undercounter refrigerators or worktop fridges are refrigerators that are designed for saving space in your bar or kitchen. Because these types of fridges are horizontal in design compared to upright fridges, their use is not limited to the kitchen. They can be placed as well in living rooms, game rooms, and even decks and patios.
Looking for a Beverage Air refrigerator or a Beverage Air freezer? Here at Rapids Wholesale, you can choose from a wide range of Beverage Air refrigerators and Beverage Air freezers. For reach-in refrigerators and undercounter refrigerators or worktop fridges, you can select from several number of doors depending on your kitchen's requirements: one, two, or three. You can also choose from units depending on width, so you can determine which unit will be perfect for your kitchen or bar: thirty-six square inches, forty-eight to sixty square inches, sixty to seventy-two inches, and more than seventy-two inches.
Looking for a Beverage Air Beer Dispenser for Your Bar, Tavern, or Pub?
A beer dispenser is a type of dispensing device used in bars that keeps draft beer from kegs chilled. A big plus of using these types of equipment is that chilling and tapping a beer keg is a breeze, and the brew is kept in excellent condition for up to a couple of months without any difference in taste and texture. This is a huge advantage most especially for bars, taverns, or pubs that help serve various brands and types of beer.
Get the ideal Beverage Air beer dispenser for your bar, pub, or tavern here at Rapids Wholesale. Choose from two-keg, three-keg, or four-keg beer dispensers in durable black vinyl finish and heavy-duty stainless steel tops.
Get the Ideal Beverage Air Bottle Cooler Here at Rapids Wholesale
A beverage cooler refrigerator should be a must for every bar, pub, tavern, or restaurant, especially for alcoholic drinks and beverages. Why? Because wine and beer are two types of drinks that require refrigeration, maybe even more so than any other beverages. One advantage of using a bar bottle cooler instead of chilling or cooling your drinks in an ordinary fridge is that you will not be competing with other items inside the refrigerator such as food or ingredients. This makes it easier for your bartender or barmaid to pull out drinks from the bar cooler and serve them to your customers or patrons right away.
Most of these coolers are considered a back bar bottle cooler because, as its name suggests, this kind of cooler is often found at the back of the bar where most of the bottled drinks and bottles are stored.
Looking for a Beverage Air bottle cooler? We at Rapids Wholesale have a wide selection of beverage cooler refrigerators and you can even choose if you want a back bar bottle cooler or a top lid bottle cooler.

Wikileaks has uploaded 3 more insurance files
Just a couple hours ago, Wikileaks uploaded 3 more encrypted "insurance" files and posted the links on the Wikileaks Facebook page. The size of the files are 3.6 GB, 49 GB and another file that's a whopping 349 GB. The files are assumed to serve as a dead man's switch in case something were to happen to Wikileaks (or Assange), in which case the key could be released and the files could potentially contain very dangerous information. Having a single copy of a top secret file isn't really handy if the authorities could just simply destroy that copy and have it over with.
The insurance files use AES-256 encryption, which is virtually impossible to crack given our current technology. If everyone on earth owned 10 computers and they were all working on cracking this single encryption code it would take 77,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years (thats 77 septillion) years to crack a single AES 256 key.
Is there a chance of getting in on the first try? The answer is yes - and it would be 1/2^256 i.e. astronomically small. It is plain misleading to argue about the "chance" that one might crack it in the first go. To the uninitiated it sounds like there is actually a chance, when in fact there is not for all practical purposes. That's the point in crypto: the number of different keys is so huge that one cannot make sense of it.
AES-256 has a cracking complexity of 2^256 (because that's the number of different keys to try). That's 115792089237316195423570985008687907853269984665640564039457584007913129639936 different keys. Implying a "chance" to hit the right key in the first try is to say the least uninformed (or just a very bad joke because it may mislead people). In fact, it's so many keys to try that we can prove it's not physically possible. There's a known lower bounds on how much energy a single computation can take; if we somehow manage to test an entire key with a single computation (which we can't), we'll still run out of energy in the entire universe before we're done.
Say you were on a satellite throwing out a rock at random. And say we split up the surface of Earth into 2^256 equally large parts. Your rock would have to fall at the exact spot representing the key you would have to find (in the first go). Well, that spot has an area in itself of 4.4×10^-63 square meters. That size is too small to make sense of (it has an order of magnitude of 1/10^45 square nanometers). A proton alone would cover 10^47 of these slices.
How about splitting the distance to the sun into 2^256 equally large parts? That's going to work, right? No. Each slice would be in the order of 10^-66 meters, and we're back in the same problem of lengths that don't make the slightest sense.
What if we envisioned each grain of sand as a small computer cracking away at this problem. And let's say they're supercomputers that can try a billion different keys each second (unrealistic). That should serve us right, right? No. Not at all. Rather, it would take over three times the current age of the universe.
How about slicing the number of particles in the universe in 2^256 equally large slices? That actually works. So for every 900 atoms in the observable universe there is anoter AES-256 key. So say we're throwing a dart in a random direction into this vast universe, we would have to hit a target with an area of 900 atoms, which is ~9nm large, and could be anywhere. In this universe. In the room I'm sitting in (3m x 4m x 2.5m) the walls have an area of 2 x 4 x 2.5 + 2 x 3 x 2.5 = 35 square meters. And say my walls are one atom thick (they aren't). Then there would be 10^21 = 1000000000000000000000 of such targets in this room. Probably not going to hit the right one in the first go. And the target is probably not even in here. Actually, it is very, very likely not here. Probably not in this building. Probably not in this country. Probably not on this continent. Probably not on this planet. Probably not in this solar system. Probably not in this galaxy…
I have no way of giving a good picture on the number of different AES-256 keys, because frankly I don't get it myself. But I think I go my point across that even joking about the off chance that you could guess an AES-256 key in the first try is what perpetuates the idea that crypto is something that can be cracked given enough computing power. It cannot. A ballpark guess about the cracking capability of a nation state is somewhere along ~2^80. Mind you, for each exponent increment the work gets double as difficult, so a nation with 2^80 cracking capability would need to double their setup (256-80)=176 times to feasibly brute force 256-bit security, i.e. spending 2^176 more on the sole purpose of cracking crypto.
The real issue here is the human factor; almost all types of encryption are susceptible to rubber-hose-cryptanalysis (hitting the key holder with a rubber hose until they give you the key) otherwise known as torture, which means that the key holders have to stay completely hidden. Wikileaks has shown to be very good at this.

Tangle-free Turbine tool
The only turbine tool that doesn't tangle. Counter-rotating heads with
brushes remove hair and dirt. A clean air turbine provides the flexible heads
with constant power over uneven surfaces. There is no brush bar for hair to wrap
around, its released straight into the bin.
Extra tools
DC50 Animal comes with a combination tool and a stair tool. The combination
tool reaches further and has softer bristles for improved spot cleaning and
gentle dusting. The stair tool removes dirt and dust from corners and against
vertical edges of stairs.
Quick release wand
DC50 Animal has a quick release, long reach wand for cleaning stairs and
awkward areas. The wand releases and retracts in a single action and the handle
collapses into the hose after use. There are no separate parts to assemble.

GREAT Suction, but
This review is from: Dyson DC50 Animal Upright Vacuum Cleaner
Pros: Light weight, outstanding suction and easy to use.
Cons: -- No accessories were included despite price
Other Thoughts: While suction performs extremely well, I was disappointed in the lack of even the most basic of accessories and more than a POd about the "extension" hose. My Dyson experience to date had set high expectations and the "DC-50 Animal" met the performance criteria but fell short on over functionality as a household, multitask capable vacuum.

Pros: several phone calls between newegg and Buy Happier has fixed my order from 6/12. all is well in the world
Cons: vacuum works great, no cons

Web Application with C++ and FastCGI
The free library Fastcgi++ Version 1.0, which enables the programming of web applications in C++ language, is now available.
Originally a C++ alternative to the official FastCGI developers kit, the Fastcgi++ library has since developed into a framework offering all the C++ facilities. The library in Version 1.0 uses the web interface FastCGI, and has no support for the old CGI protocol.
According to the developers, the library impresses with efficient memory management and CPU usage. Session data is organized into relevant data types and internationalization and Unicode support are also featured.
Fastcgi++ 1.0 is licensed under LGPLv3 and the software as source text Tarball, together with API-documentation, is ready for download.

We had so much fun doing our Countdown to Kickoff series last season that we decided to do it again. If case you're new to the series, we'll do a roster preview as we count down the days until the Chicago Bears September 7th season opener against the Buffalo Bills.
A three year starter for Florida State and the key part of his game was versatility. Jones played both outside linebacker as well as defensive end. In his senior year he had 56 tackles 8 for loss, one interception and two sacks. At 6'3″ and 241 pounds he physically gifted, tall and long, with great upside. He is a fluid linebacker that can sift through traffic, has the speed to move into every angle and can cover a lot of ground. Moves quickly up field against the run, good pass rusher and plays coverage well. He is still a bit raw, needs to work on shedding blockers and understanding coverages better.
He was rated a 4th or 5th selection but went undrafted. The main reasons were, that due to his versatility and a less than stellar senior season most teams didn't know where to use him. Also, he failed his drug test at the Combine. At the first day at Bears rookie mini camp, Christian admitted he made a mistake, a life learning experience and was grateful to the Bears for the chance. During mini camp he impressed the coaches with his athletic skills.
He will definitely compete in training camp for a roster spot at either SAM or WILL backer. With Briggs entering what some believe his last season (either by contract or playing ability), Jones should press Greene for the back up role at WILL. Otherwise, if Bositc moves to MIKE he could rotate with McClellin at SAM. Regardless, where he finds himself, he will contribute on special teams.
His father, Willie Jones played football for the Seminoles with Bears linebacker coach, Reggie Herring.
Jones fits the physical criteria that Emery likes. A long and tall player with great upside and has the potential to be a NFL star.

Industry News: A new Veranda, power lunching, and fun foodie events
Published: April 17, 2013
The building that formerly housed Jason Dady's The Lodge at Castle Hills has reopened its doors as the Veranda, an event space. The Lodge closed at the end of 2011, and the Spanish-style facility is well suited to weddings, which the Veranda will most likely see many of. Chef Mike Bomberg of Spice of Life Catering is the owner of the Veranda, and will provide catering for events at the mansion.
In other Dady-related news, his wine bar and restaurant BIN 555 hosts an oyster event every Tuesday in April. Shuck Out With Your Truck Out has been a hit with customers the past couple weeks, so get there early (i.e., before or as close to 5 p.m.) as you can.
All you executives on the go, take note: the Palm downtown now offers a lunch menu that will get you in and out in an hour or less. Plus, you can get a martini for under 10 bucks midday, making for an extremely enjoyable power lunch.
Texas Pride Barbeque in Adkins (on the East Side) will host a Tex-Mex buffet every Wednesday this summer, with activities like beer and wine tastings, live music, dancing and even chuck wagon cooking. Next Wednesday (4/24), listen to western swing by Billy Mata & The Texas Tradition.

Voyage Journal 7105 Day 4
Day 4 - February 24, 2011 - At anchor near Deception Island; Whalers Bay, Deception Island, Antarctic
By Hans-Peter Reinthaler, Biologist
Co-ordinates: 62°38´57´´S, 60°33´46´´W
Weather: overcast and windy, in the afternoon raining
It was meant to be an early morning down here in the South Shetland Islands where the
Prince Albert II
arrived yesterday afternoon after crossing the Drake Passage. Unfortunately, the weather changed dramatically and the wind was blowing with approximately 45 knots causing swell and conditions, making landing on Bailey Head impossible. Robin West, the Expedition Leader, announced around 7 o'clock in the morning that the planned landing was cancelled, and due to weather conditions, we would stay at anchor in a sheltered place until the afternoon.
As an alternative to the landing, lectures were offered to the guests on board. At 9.30 our historian board, Ken Knowles was talking about Antarctic explorations. Starting with the discovery of the continent, first sightings and then also going through the scientific exploration of this huge landmass down in the south, he gave an interesting insight into the history of Antarctica.
At 11.30 hours the next lecture was given in The Theater. This time by marine biologist Robin Aiello. She talked about adaptations of animals to this harsh physical environment. These are not only adaptations to low temperatures but also to short breeding seasons and food availability. An interesting lecture showing our guests how well adapted these animals are to that ecosystem.
After lunch with our guests and enjoying the delicious paella in The Restaurant, the
Prince Albert II
sailed around into the caldera of Deception Island, passing by the narrows of Neptune's Bellows. The sky was overcast but visibility was good and the whole island lay before the admiring eyes of our guests. A perfect Antarctic afternoon had just begun.
After a short scouting tour to the landing site where the conditions were perfect, the disembarkation of our guests started. Ken positioned himself near important historical sites to give our guests useful information about this once important whaling station.
After the historical introduction to this site, our guests had the opportunity to walk up to Ronalds Hill accompanied by Expedition Team members Juan Restrepo, Nicki D'Souza and myself. The weather and the site this afternoon gave our guests a real feeling of Antarctica. On the beach, Gentoo and Chinstrap Penguins popped out of the water and had a rest on the dark volcanic sand of Deception Island. Further on, some Fur Seals were lying right next to the shore enjoying a lazy day and the southern autumn.
A lot of our guests joined the walk up to the top of the hill, from where they had an absolutely stunning view over Whalers Bay. My duty today was accompanying our group of Chinese guests up to Ronald Hill, explaining to them a little bit about the few lichens that we found on the way up.
Another group headed towards Neptune's Window together with Claudia Holgate and Will Wagstaff. First, the walk took them along the beach observing kelp, Skuas and Fur Seals and then, once up by the window, to enjoy the stunning view out into the Bransfield Strait.
At half past five, the
Prince Albert II
left Deception Island sailing out through the Neptune's Bellows and heading to our next day's stop at Cuverville Island.
Back on board again, this was still not the end of our expedition day. In a short briefing, Expedition Leader Robin West gave an overview on the destinations and excursions we will experience tomorrow and Juan, Ken, Luke and I gave a short recap on the geology of Deception Island, whaling history, fisheries and lichen respectively.
Sailing away from the Southern Shetland Islands and getting into the Bransfield Strait, the swell became noticeable once more, and some of our guests had to stay in their suites and missed the excellent dinner in The Restaurant.

Nick Ring ✘Assassin
Age➜ 32
Favorite Weapon➜ L129A1
Affiliation➜ McCreary
A little something about Nick...
Don't ask Nick where he's from. If he tells you, he'll have to kill you. But rumor has it that his family was part of the Irish mob back when it was strong and union made in the early 1930's. He has a New York accent so some can guess he's from the great city itself but assassins and mercenaries aren't always the most honest of men.
Don't ask Nick who his boss is, because if he has to tell you, it's because he's going to kill you. But by that point, you'll know who he's working for. Chances are, you wont just run into a guy like Nick randomly. He's a skilled professional.
Nick is his own man but has recently been picked up by the McCreary family since work is lacking and house wives are killing their husbands themselves. Prime ministers are dying peacefully in their sleep and politician's are hiring cannon fodder. So why not take a demotion to hit man, what could it hurt, right?
More about his personality...
Everyone has connections...

I sensed doom and gloom early Tuesday when exit pollsters evoked BUSH'S FAULT after all this time. O's Smear and Fear Axelrod tactics have worked since he ran for the Illinois House and every race since then. Not on who he was (we still have unanswered questions) but now fearing all the more our future with someone who has no past and won't take responsiblity for his own actions.

I recently got a refund from Hotwire.com, despite their stated no-refunds policy, and I wanted to share the experience both as practical instructions on how to cancel a Hotwire hotel reservation and get a refund from Hotwire, and also an example of how persistence almost always pays off for customers.
If you've never bought an airline ticket or hotel room on Hotwire or Priceline.com, their schtick is this: You can get a discounted price on a hotel, but you won't find out exactly which hotel it is until after you've paid. Once you click "buy," there are no refunds, no cancellations and no changes -- for any reason.
(They have other kinds of offers on the sites too, but the blind, no-refunds deals are the cheapest.)
The Frugalista recently found out that although the policy says no refunds -- and I was told no when I called and asked for a refund, there is one simple request you can make that may get a Hotwire agent to issue you a refund. The following is my account of how I got a Hotwire refund and what to say if you are trying to cancel a Hotwire reservation yourself.
Recently The Frugalista household was supposed to go to Indiana to visit family. We thought we were supposed to be there third weekend in May. I decided to book our hotel room through Hotwire to save a few bucks. Like a good shopper, I confirmed the date of the stay before purchasing. I shouted across the dining room to my husband, "Honey, we're supposed to be there May 22, right?"
Turns out, my due diligence wasn't all that diligent. Like, maybe confirming with the person who invited us might have been a good idea? Because, you guessed it, just two days before our anticipated departure, a conversation with a relative clued us into the fact that everyone was getting together the fourth weekend in May. Not the third.
Faced with forfeiting the $70 I'd paid for a hotel room, I hit Google and I hit it hard. My first thought was to try to sell our non-refundable hotel on Craigslist, but I don't think that can be done. The rooms can't be transferred to another person, and folks in online travel forums said that they had been asked for their ID when checking in. Other travelers reported successfully getting a refund in the case of publicized weather disasters, but clearly this did not apply. Still others had successfully gotten refunds when a relative had died or was hospitalized, and it sounded like the companies were not verifying whether these family emergencies were real.
But even if I could get away with it, making up a death in the family would be more than $70 worth of bad karma, dont' you think?
Some online discussions gave me a glimmer of hope, though: People were mentioning something about a special, one-time exception that Hotwire or Priceline might make for customers who booked in error. I called Hotwire -- it was nearly midnight Central Time but they were available -- explained my error, and begged for the chance to book the very same hotel a week later.
The agent said no.
I emailed the question in and got the same answer from a different agent. The next day, I called the hotel, and a friendly, helpful employee told me that they could not change the reservation, but that Hotwire could. I called Hotwire back and told them that the hotel was willing to change if it was OK with them. Hotwire said that the hotel could change the reservation on its own, but Hotwire couldn't.
I was a ping pong, getting hit back and forth between customer service agents who were good at politely saying no and passing the buck.
I called the hotel back again, and the same person I'd spoken to earlier suggested that I get Hotwire to call her. This had worked in the past, she said.
I did so, and they immediately agreed to put me on hold and call. However, by the time this happened, my friendly hotel employee had gone home for the day.
I called Hotwire back first thing in the morning, and this time, they got through to her with me on hold. In just a minute or two, the Hotwire agent came back on the line and told me my reservation was cancelled. No fees, no requirement to rebook, no nothing.
To sum it up, I was honest about my mistake and Hotwire cancelled and refunded a nonrefundable reservation. What I said to successfully get Hotwire to cancel my hotel reservation: I asked the Hotwire agent to speak to the hotel directly on the phone, and to cancel the hotel reservation as a one-time exception to the no refunds policy.
Hotwire promised me my refund on a Friday, and the money was returned to my credit card account by Saturday.
I was then faced with the question of what to do next. I had told the hotel agent that I wanted to reserve a different night at her hotel, and because she was so helpful, I felt obligated to rebook with her. So I didn't book the correct night through Hotwire, since I woudln't have been able to be sure I was getting the same place. I paid a little more to book directly.


text: With due respect to the official proponents of A&S, bardic offerings *as presented within the SCA* do not usually mesh well with the layout of "the A&S venues" as they are typically organized in Ansteorra. The portions of the "compleat" bardic experience that fit the best to typical A&S are not those usually associated to the typical bard of the SCA: face it, research papers, genealogies, written-out histories just don't have the cachet of rising in front of an audience and holding it spell-bound with the telling of a good yarn or the singing of a tragic ballad. With due respect to the MoA&S, Kingdom Eisteddfod and the local-branch bardic championships ARE indeed "A&S venues" -- venues which are specific to the performance of forms which are appropriate for those situations, and may not be received in the same way in the typical Kingdom A&S, or Laurel's Prize Tourney, of local-branch A&S Championship. Ihon, please do enter if you are so moved -- and do let us know how much traction you can get in trying to add bardic performance to the "mainstream" / "normal" A&S venues. If past experience is any predictor, it will not be an easy thing to do. Please consider also that adding a performance room separate from the main display area is not the same thing. (I, personally, consider such to be separate & unequal -- but also note that I don't have a better general solution, either, given the existing needs of A&S and the normal limitations of sites used to host such events. May be a case of the best we can hope for under the overall circumstances -- but it should give any organizer significant pause before combining Kingdom A&S with Eisteddfod IMNSHO...) I do not expect my opinion on this to bear much weight, but I do know that it will be received and noted as another voice -- even if it currently must echo from a far place to reach your attentions. Adieu, Amra / ttfn - Mike / Pax ... Kihe (Mike C. Baker) SCA: al-Sayyid Amr ibn Majid al-Bakri al-Amra, F.O.B, OSCA "Other": Reverend Kihe Blackeagle PULC (the DreamSinger Bard) Opinions?

For my part, I vow to do whatever I can to see that our art receives the same treatment and consideration as any other genre. May even enter! ~ihon DMoAS for Bardic & Performance Arts On 11/8/06, gail young <gwynethb63 at yahoo.com> wrote: I think if you would move as a group towards making bards more of a part of the mainstream A&S community you would make people more aware of your talents then you as a group would become more aware of others talents and therefore get stronger. If that happens, then the A&S community as a whole, and therefore Ansteorra as a whole, gets stronger. MY first step, if I were a bard, would be to make my spotlight event ligitimate by bringing it into the A&S venues. But, I am not a bard. I am here only to promote the Arts and Sciences in our Kingdom. gwyneth Robert Fitzmorgan < <mailto:fitzmorgan at gmail.com> fitzmorgan at gmail.com> wrote: So here are a few of my questions. What does a thriving, growing, healthy bardic community look like? How is that different than what we have now? What would you like to see happen that isn't happening now? How can we make that happen? What can the bardic community do to help you as a bard? What can you as a bard do to help the bardic community?

George Lucasmarried long time girlfriend Mellody Hobson on Saturday night in Marine County. This is the second marriage for Lucas and the first for Hosbon. [via PEOPLE]
(Source: kallanda-lee)
via The Hollywood Reporter:"Just months after selling Lucasfilm Ltd. to Disney, George Lucas is ready for another big change: marriage. The Star Wars writer-director is engaged to longtime girlfriend and DreamWorks Animation chairman Mellody Hobson. It will be the first marriage for Hobson, 43, and the second for Lucas, 68."
via The Hollywood Reporter:"By the end of the year, the $4.05 billion sale of Lucasfilm to Disney should be finalized. And since George Lucas owns 100 percent of his company — which has little to no debt — all that money goes to him. Lucas plans to quickly put the bulk of the money into a foundation that will primarily focus on educational issues." Read more here…

Hometown: Helena, MT

Why I chose to attend Juniata: I chose to attend Juniata because it boasts a 100% acceptance rate to law schools. It is also a place where I was able to meet all new people and be far away from where I grew up.
Clubs and Organizations: Ultimate Frisbee, Spanish, Pre Law, and Concert Choir.
Most Interesting Class: Politics in Film. This class was my favorite class because of how interesting the professor made it. I learned a ton of things not only about film but about the world.
Favorite Faculty Member: Jack Barlow was the first professor that I saw at juniata and his class really set the tone for all of the others. It has gotten me better prepared to be here at Juniata.
Thank you!
Thank you so very much for giving me this scholarship! Because of you I was lucky enough to get out of Montana and go somewhere I had never been. You are truly wonderful and again thank you!

Searching for Therapeutic Boarding Schools in Virginia? Will You also Consider Shelterwood?
While you are searching for boarding schools in Virginia, would you also look at a therapeutic boarding school a distance away from Virginia? Shelterwood stands out in its commitment to helping teens attain lasting change and a new chance for a strong future.
A Boarding School that Enrolls Troubled Teens Struggling with School or Their Attidude
Counter to traditional boarding schools in Virginia, Shelterwood is uniquely equipped to work with struggling adolescents who are spiraling out of control or showing lack of motivation, rage, self-harm, dropping grades, alcohol or drug abuse, or disrespect for others. As a Christian therapeutic boarding school, we are convinced that lasting change takes place from the inside out.
Tuition at Shelterwood may be less than you might imagine for a top therapeutic program, and it is conveniently located in the center of the country near a major airport, on a sprawling newly-built campus.
Top-Quality Academics at the Shelterwood Therapeutic Boarding School
Mainly designed to be a therapeutic program, Shelterwood also excels in its accredited academic program with fully equipped school facilities and certified teachers on campus every day. Course work is fully transferable back to the child's home school and diplomas are awarded to teens who graduate while in our care. Our dedication to help adolescents grow behaviorally, spiritually, and in character is matched by our desire to provide them with a quality education, quality housing, quality meals and quality care.
We Welcome Teens from Virginia and Also from Other Countries
Adolescent boys and girls come to Shelterwood from around the country, including from Virginia. We also have international students. Most of our boarding school residents are from families who live several hundred miles away. After all, we find it beneficial for teens to effect change in a new environment detached by miles from their old peer groups who may be near Virginia.
Counseling Designed to Improve Behavior and Build Character
Shelterwood provides a dynamic and dedicated staff who wrap teens in love when they are at their worst. Teens who are in our care receive individual counseling once weekly and group counseling twice weekly with a Masters-educated counselor. Teens work through five phases of growth until they gain a new mind-set and are ready to return to normal life at home. Outside of planned sessions, therapy takes place as teens interact with our team of college-educated Christian mentors and staff during class time, recreation, meals, and even chores. Our staff incorporates "big brothers and sisters" who reside with the teens in the dorms and humbly share their lives out of a wish to deeply influence the teens.
In Our Program Residents Learn to Serve Others As Well
An added major indicator of growth is an attitude of service and giving to others. Shelterwood strongly emphasizes community participation and giving through serving. Shelterwood teens serve one another, serve the community and learn to serve the world. Service takes place on campus; during local trips to soup kitchens, churches, and parks; and in missions experiences such as teaching orphaned children in Mexico or Haiti. Fostering growth in teens means teaching them how to lift up others, and we work hard to lead by example. The volunteer work is completely charitable and unpaid.
Though We're Not in Virginia, Please Consider Shelterwood
Please consider looking beyond Virginia, to see how Shelterwood's distinctive program can bring about restoration in your family. Of the families we've helped over the past 30 years, more than 80% say that they have experienced restoration. To discover more, we invite you to investigate the rest of our website, then fill out our online inquiry form or contact us directly at (800) 584-5005.
If Shelterwood is not the right fit for your teen or your budget, we'll put you in touch with other therapeutic boarding schools near Virginia, that we think highly of. We're here to help you either way. Please call or inquire online.

Missional Small Groups (Allelon Missional Series)
Becoming a Community That Makes a Difference in the World
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreSmall groups are a great place to connect with other churchgoers, but many wonder, is this all there is? Is sitting in a living room, talking about a book or watching a video the extent of what we can do together? Isn't being a Christian community about something more than this?
Pastor and author Scott Boren thinks so. In this latest release from missional thinktank Allelon, Boren gives leaders and members of small groups the tools they need to make an impact on their communities. Beginning with a gentle critique of current small group models, Boren goes on to show how a uniquely Christian paradigm can set groups free to transform their communities. The final section of the book offers over twenty practices that groups can do to become more missional.
Ultimately Missional Small Groups is about helping groups follow Jesus by equipping them to bring his message and healing to a hurting world. less

The local office said the Docsis 3 modems they had for sale were Cisco, not sure of model. Is there any reason to choose the Cisco over the Motorola SB6121? I have the preferred tier so I don't need the Docsis 3 but thought the channel bonding might be some benefit.Thanks,BGC
the cisco will be a 8x4 modem vs the 4x4 of the 6121, as for which one is better its a toss up now a days, if you want a moto get 6141 which is 8x4 with a built in moca filter, i have this modem myself and upgraded from the 6120»www.amazon.com/Motorola-SurfBoar···urfboard
I believe some markets also offer the Motorola SB6180 at the retail stores, which is also a 8x4. Diagnostics are better on Motorola but some of it comes down to personal preference and how your local area implements DOCSIS. Another words, personal results will vary.
I have both. The DPC3010 (cisco) has the technical advantage of 8x4 bonding. The 612x (I have a 6121) is 4x4, but unless you are going on one of the new premium tiers it won't make any difference.On preferred, 4x4 should be fine for now. Save your money for later when the upgrade will actually matter in a few years.The Motos seem slightly more stable and you can see more diagnostic info with them, so my preference is the Moto.

This project is a journey.
It's a journey of exploration—exploring the people who have at some point in their own ventures found their way to this one piece of land—a farm, a community. So what led them here? And who were they before? Has this changed them? Who are they now, and who are they becoming?
Earth Works is sharing this community's experiences of transformation--those inner-outer changes that have come by living in deeper awareness of our relationships with the land, with each other, and with ourselves.

Jerry Sandusky claims he's not a pedophile, but also admits showering with young boys ... in his first interview since the Penn State scandal broke.
Sandusky talked to Bob Costas, and admitted ... "I have horsed around with kids. I have showered after workouts. I have hugged them and I have touched their legs without intent of sexual contact."
During the interview, which airs tonight on NBC's "Rock Center" ... Sandusky claims he is innocent ... and concedes, "I shouldn't have showered with those kids."
& showering with boys under the age is 18``is ILLEGAL!!
Flucking PERVERT!!!!
So this means he's going to put these victims through even more by making them testify again. This sicko needs to plead guilty & serve his time. They've been through ENOUGH ALREADY.
There is never EVER an excuse for an old man to shower with a CHILD...EVER you sick son of a bitch.
I don't anything about this guy but which is worse? having a shower in a locker room, or sharing your bed in the secret room?
What a sick SOB. Fkn freak.
NBC shouldn't give this guy the time of day. Talk to the grand jury that heard everyone's testimony.
Did they really expect him to come out and say "Oh yeah I raped that 10 year old."?
Why would he have reason to touch their legs in the shower?
HOly cow - so he thinks now that showering was wrong? he still doesn't get it. I sure hope they don't keep him away from the general prison population when he goes to the big house. We all know what they do to child molesters, and he deserves it all. Have fun in hell...you are on your way Sandusky....evil incarnate.....
EVERY SINGLE PERSON including Paterno's dusty azz NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL IF THEY KNEW OF THIS HORROR AND DID NOT REPORT IT TO THE POLICE!
I want to say more about this azz pimple who thinks we are now stupid but it would not be postable.
LOL......Does this sick pedophile really expect the American public to believe his story. This is an insult to everyone, especially those innocent boys. Shame on Bob Costas and the network even giving him air time!!! Oh yea I forgot, it's all about the ratings! Tell it to the judge Jerry! This perv needs to be tortured, then his balls burned, then castrated, and rot until he dies!
and Michael Jackson should not have touched children either!
Best Ever MJ Joke: MJ meets up with Gary Glitter in Child Molester's Hell and asks: "hey, Gary, got 2 fives for a ten?"
the worse part of this is his denial. I mean for real not according to the Grand Jury indictment...horsing around and giving ***********s and anal intercourse are not the same thing. I don't think eye witnesses and 8 victims would lie...you are sicker than the public originally thought and you are a worse monster than I even imagined you were...ohhh...what a tangled web you are weaving Mr. Sandusky...karma is going to hit you hard and the rest of your life will be overwhelmingly bad.
Yeah,and you shouldn't have put your PeePee in his poop chute.
God saw what you did.
I think guy like this should be shot.
You mess with a kid, rape a women or
take advantage of a old person, you
shold be taken out back and KILLED.
Pretty simple if you ask me.

"You should wake me," I say, thinking about how I can interrupt his sleep two or three times on a bad night. About how long it can take to calm me down.

Pakistan: Now or Never?
Perspectives on Pakistan
Pakistan's tribal areas; can money go where troops can't?
Amid all the talk about whether U.S. troops would, could or should go into Pakistan's tribal areas to track down al Qaeda and the Taliban, here are two items putting forward an alternative — that money might succeed where military power fails.
In a feature called "US aims to turn hostile Pakistani tribes friendly", Reuters Bureau Chief in Islamabad Simon Cameron-Moore says that the United States this year will start spending in earnest $750 million in the hope of making Pakistan's unruly tribal lands less hospitable for al Qaeda and the Taliban.
"The United States fears Islamist militants using satellite telephones and laptops in mud-walled compounds on Pakistan's fabled north west frontier are plotting a devastating attack in the West, just as al Qaeda did from Afghanistan in 2001," writes Cameron-Moore, to explain why the Americans are thinking of spending money on developing Pakistan's semi-autonomous Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA).
In a detailed analysis of the insurrection in Pakistan's tribal areas, which includes such telling details as the literacy rate for women (officially three percent for women and "probably much less"), Brian Cloughley, an expert on the Pakistan army, says that the rebellion in FATA cannot be defeated by military means alone. In a paper written for the Pakistan Security Research Unit at Britain's Bradford University, he suggests instead "the time-tried and effective means of discreetly-implemented, generous bribery".
from FaithWorld:
Pakistan's "Mother Teresa" detained by U.S. immigration
(Update: Edhi returned to Karachi on Feb. 4.)
When U.S. immigration officers question an arriving Pakistani for eight hours and seize his passport, they presumably suspect some kind of link to Islamist terrorism. Abdul Sattar Edhi, 79, "has links" to some horrifying violence, so to speak, but it's hard to imagine they're the kind that immigration officers may have suspected when they detained him at New York's Kennedy Airport on Jan. 9.
Edhi and his colleagues care for -- and, when necessary, bury -- the victims of violence in his native city Karachi. His private Edhi Welfare Trust foundation runs an extensive ambulance service, buries unclaimed bodies and maintains centres for orphans, the homeless, the addicted and the mentally ill. In a country where state-run welfare services are basic or non-existant, his charity work is so unusual and prominent that he is often called "Pakistan's Mother Teresa".
Karzai's Ashdown snub and the Pakistan link
Last week's offer by U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates to send U.S. troops to Pakistan in the face of Pakistani opposition has provoked a deluge of comments on the Internet and in the blogosphere.
One of the more interesting takes comes from former Indian ambassador M.K. Bhadrakumar. He writes in the Asia Times Online that Afghan President Hamid Karzai's decision to snub Paddy Ashdown as the west's choice of UN envoy to Kabul may also help President Pervez Musharraf resist western pressure.
America's unwelcome offer
Brushing off Pakistan's insistence that it does not want foreign troops on its soil, the United States says it is ready to send its soldiers to help the Pakistan army fight against Taliban and al Qaeda militants. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said last week the United States was "ready, willing and able" to send troops to Pakistan.
In The Huffington Post, Ambassador Marc Ginsberg sees this as more than an innocent offer but rather "a trial balloon" by Gates meant to test the waters for sending U.S. troops to Pakistan. "All this is to say that the real war against al Qaeda has yet to be fought where it counts — in Pakistan…" he writes.
Lawyers' brief
With the father of the nation, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, himself a lawyer, the legal profession has a certain resonance in Pakistan that it does not have elsewhere. But the lawyers' movement which led the opposition to President Pervez Musharraf last year had slipped off the front pages with the death of Benazir Bhutto. This week, a number of people have pushed the issue forward again.
In a column in the Daily Times, called Who is Afraid of Aitzaz Ahsan, former foreign secretary Tanvir Ahmed Kahn argues that the history of the British empire in India showed that imprisoning the leaders of protest movements never helped.
So what did happen after 9/11?
With apologies to those out there who are not fans of India's first prime minister, here is an interesting quote attributed to Jawaharlal Nehru: "You don't change the course of history by turning the faces of portraits to the wall."
In the latest Carnegie Endowment report on Pakistan entitled "Pakistan and the War on Terror: Conflicted Goals, Compromised Performance", Ashley Tellis gives a lucid and detailed account of what happened after 9/11, when Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf pledged to help the United States track down al Qaeda and its Taliban hosts in Afghanistan.
Flour power
While the outside world debates who killed Benazir Bhutto and why, inside Pakistan the shortage of flour is beginning to dominate people's thoughts ahead of the Feb. 18 election. Reuters China Economics Editor Alan Wheatley highlighted quite how important food supplies are becoming with a piece on Sunday saying that across Asia food is the new oil.
The flour shortage has got so bad that Pakistan has had to use paramilitary troops to escort wheat trucks
from FaithWorld:
Growing gap seen between Western, Muslim countries — Davos poll
Most people in Muslim and Western countries believe divisions between them are worsening and each side believes the other disrespects their culture, according to a poll released on Monday.
The Gallup poll, published in a report on Muslim-Western relations for the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos this week, reflects "an alarmingly low level of optimism regarding dialogue between Islam and the West", WEF chairman Klaus Schwab said.
Pakistan: Now or Never?
In a 1933 pamphlet, Choudhary Rahmat Ali – credited with coining the name of Pakistan — called on fellow Muslims in the Indian subcontinent to set up a separate nation. His pamphlet titled "Now or Never" argued that Indian Muslims risked losing their heritage if they did not fight for their own country. "Either we live or perish for ever," he wrote.
Now more than 70 years later, Pakistan faces a crisis which some say could threaten its very existence — a view dismissed as alarmist by its leaders. In the coming weeks and months, we will aim to round up the best opinion, analysis and blogging about Pakistan, from both inside and outside the country. While content on external internet sites does not reflect the views of Reuters, we will be looking to identify the major themes as they emerge.

New York • The stock market sank early Thursday following a disappointing report on Americans' spending last month. Bed Bath & Beyond and banks were among the biggest losers.
KEEPING SCORE: A half hour after the opening bell, Dow Jones industrial average was down 89 points, or 0.5 percent, at 16,779. The Standard & Poor's 500 index sank nine points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,949, while the Nasdaq composite index fell 19 points, or 0.4 percent, to 4,362.

JOBS: The government said that the number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits declined last week, the latest evidence that an economic slowdown earlier this year hasn't caused employers to shed workers. The unemployment rate is 6.3 percent, the lowest level in more than five years.
TOOK A BATH: Bed Bath & Beyond sank 9 percent, the biggest loss in the S&P 500, after the company posted quarterly earnings and sales late Wednesday that fell short of analysts' estimates. The store's stock dropped $5.80 to $55.31.
HEAVY METAL: Alcoa plans to acquire Firth Rixson, a British maker of jet-engine parts, for $2.9 billion, as the company continues to shift away from its aluminum-smelting roots. Alcoa's stock rose 33 cents, or 2 percent, to $14.87 in early trading.
EUROPE: Major European markets wavered around the start line Thursday. France's CAC 40 edged up 0.1 percent while Germany's DAX slipped 0.1 percent. The FTSE 100 index of leading British companies was flat.
BONDS AND COMMODITIES: In the market for government bonds, the yield on the 10-year note dropped to 2.52 percent from 2.56 percent late Wednesday. Bond yields fall when prices rise. The price of crude oil fell 43 cents to $106.07 a barrel.

Which film is murder lifted from?
Asked by jack grovy, 08 Oct '08 12:02 am
Earn 10 points for answering
Answers (1)
Murder is inspired by the movie Unfaithful, the 2002 Hollywood blockbuster starring Dianne Lane, Richard Gere and Oliver Martinez. The movie got a mixed response but the desi version Murder(2004) was a huge hit. Apart from Murder, there were two more movies based on Unfaithful-Hawas(starring Meghna Naidu) and Tezaab - The Acid of Love(starring Shruti Sharma). Tezaab - The Acid of Love is a hit in the DVD/VCD circuit because of the raunchy scenes and smooches. Hawas was a flop.Answered by arunraj vs, 08 Oct '08 12:02 am
