Trevor Immelman PGA Grand Slam of Golf Profile
By Bob Denney, The PGA of America
Inspiration often travels through peculiar routes, some of which include trials where we take a pause to cherish what we have.
Trevor Immelman's triumph at the 2008 Masters was preceded by a victory of even greater magnitude four months earlier.

Trevor Immelman Profile |
After withdrawing from the 2007 South African Airways Open due to labored breathing and severe pain around his rib cage area, he went into surgery.
Doctors discovered a tumor, the size of a golf ball, on his diaphragm. Once removed, it took the same doctors two days to determine that the tumor was benign. It was another six weeks before Immelman -- carrying a seven-inch incision across his lower back -- could regain his form.
Trying to sum up his thoughts in the Masters interview room, Immelman said he has been on "the ultimate roller-coaster ride, and I hate roller coasters. I win the Nedbank Challenge in South Africa, and a week later I'm having an operation to remove a tumor ... I felt like I had to start from zero again. Here I am after missing the cut last week.
"Masters Champion ?- it's the craziest thing I've ever heard of."
That rollercoaster ride at Augusta National Golf Club was buoyed when the 28-year-old Immelman received a voice mail from one of his boyhood heroes, Gary Player, the night before the final round.
Player left Immelman a message of encouragement Saturday night before he left for the Middle East, telling him to be patient because there would be bad breaks.
"He told me that he believed in me and that I need to believe in myself," said Immelman. "He told me to go out there and be strong through adversity, because he said that adversity would come today, and I just had to deal with it ... it gave me goose bumps."
Immelman went on to a hard-earned final-round 75 to join Player as the only South Africans to win the Masters. From being ranked No. 29 in the world, Immelman ascended to golf's top tier after playing in just his fifth Masters as a professional. He became the sixth South African to win a major championship, joining Player (9), Bobby Locke (4), Ernie Els (3), Nick Price (3) and Retief Goosen (2).
"There's been a bunch of guys who have had a chance, and there will be more South Africans to win here," Immelman said. "This tournament is such a big deal down there. We grow up dreaming about winning this."
Ever since he was a kid who took up the game at 5 and was a scratch player by 12, Immelman has been branded as South Africa's next great star.
The promise had always been with Immelman, the son of Johan Immelman, the former commissioner of the Sunshine Tour. Trevor had aspired to excel at the game by following in the footsteps of his brother, Mark, the golf coach at Columbus (Ga.) State.
After winning the 1996 Junior PGA Championship, Immelman captured the 1998 U.S. Amateur Public Links and turned professional a year later. He began competing on the Challenge Tour in Europe, finishing 10th in 2000 on the Order of Merit.
He joined the European Tour in 2001 full-time and went on to win four times and in 2004 became the first to successfully defend the South African Open title since Player in the 1970s.
Through the travails he has endured off the course, Immelman said that he realized that the frustration that he often expended on his game was wasted energy and had caused him to misplace perspective.
"I just realized that I'd better start enjoying the talent I've been given," he said, "because it can be taken away."
When it counted most on a blustery Sunday at Augusta National, Immelman had found his focus and found the hole with his putter. He had been tough enough.

annoying F-2 error
I have a Magic chef gas range, in the past a couple times would get the error and the warning beeper goes off. If I hit the clear button it would be fine. I googled the error and it has something to do with the clock, pretty vague description but does not sound critical.
This morning it has gone off so many times I had to pull the range out and unplug it. My first thought is to remove the cover panel on it and see if I can disable it some how, that does not sound like a great idea. So thought I would ask here, if anyone has an idea what could be wrong and a good fix for it? Will now pull the cover off, no clue what I am searching for. Kept getting mixed readings from F-2 F-3 F-4, I unplugged the temp sensor, used a small brass wire brush and cleaned the connections and plugged it back in. Problem has not come back since then and cross fingers. Advertisement

annoying F-2 error
More info, I went to google the error again. soon as I started putting in the model # my history came up and showed I was searching for a F-0 error, that was the clock.
Something about a sticky touch pad and replace it, but everything worked perfect and hit clear and would not come back, happened 2 times in 1 year. So your advice to search google was spot on, I now realize F-2 is a new error and not the clock I thought it was. Since the oven or burners are not in use, it seems is a bad temp sensor. According to this, seems I should get F-3 or F-4, At least I know where to start. Temperature Issues
So I plugged it back in and turned on the oven to 300. It will beep and tell you when it has reached cooking temp. It got to 300 on the digital gauge way to fast and beeped. Opened the oven and burner never came on yet. Cranked it up to 400 and was more reasonable time to get to temp and burners did come on. I let it cool down to see if could replicate the issue and now am getting a F-4 error and happens so quickly that no chance to try the oven. Think I found it. I just want to be careful and not dump money I cant afford in chasing the wrong problem. Because of previous issue with clock .... suspecting it may be the board and not really the sensor ... I dunno

Watchdog on the wall: the Americans United story.
From Small Beginnings Five Decades Ago, Americans United Has Moved To A National Leadership Role In The Fight For Church-State Separation1947 was an eventful year for both the United States and the world. In post-war America, the economy boomed as returning World War II veterans re-entered the work force, enrolled in college, bought homes and started families.
The U.S. Air Force was born. "Meet the Press" debuted on NBC. Test pilot Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in an experimental jet. Elmer's glue and Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil were introduced to consumers. On the other side of the globe, India gained independence from Great Britain.
And in Chicago a group of concerned citizens met on Nov. 20 at the Methodist Temple to discuss ways to increase public support for and understanding of the constitutional principle of church-state separation.
Earlier that year, a group of prominent leaders from various religious, educational, fraternal and public policy groups had held a series of meetings at hotels and churches around Washington, D.C., discussing the need for cooperative efforts to defend church-state separation. At the November meeting, participants hammered out a document outlining their concerns, known simply as A Manifesto. Plans for a national organization were finalized, and officers were elected.
Such was the birth of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.
From these humble beginnings, Americans United has risen to become the nation's premier defender of the constitutional separation between religion and government. Through five stormy decades, the organization has worked on a wide range of church-state issues. The cast of characters has changed, and issues have peaked and waned in their importance, but Americans United's mission remains the same: to protect religious and intellectual freedom by defending the separation of church and state.
What was it about America in the late 1940s that sparked the birth of Americans United? In some ways, the situation then sounds much like today's, Leaders of the Roman Catholic Church had just announced an aggressive drive to win tax subsidies for their parochial school system. Congress and state legislatures were feeling the heat.
Congress was, for the first time, considering a massive appropriations bill for public education. But the measure was held up by demands from parochial school advocates that religious institutions share in its largess.
At the same time, the issue of an official U.S. ambassador to the Vatican sparked controversy. President Harry Truman had proposed the relationship, despite complaints from religious leaders that it amounted to giving one church a special relationship with the U.S. government.
That same year, the Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling on church-state relations: Everson v. Board of Education. Handed down on Feb. 10, 1947, Everson was a curious decision. In it, a unanimous court spoke approvingly and in ringing language of the need for strict separation between the institutions of government and faith, but then a five-justice majority went on to approve a taxpayer-funded system of bus transportation for religious schools in New Jersey.
In short, church-state issues and the controversy they usually generate were much in the news in 1947, especially the question of government support for sectarian schools. With the Supreme Court showing an increasing willingness to take up the question, AU's founders decided the time was right for a national organization dedicated to defending church-state separation.
The founders were a diverse lot. They included Edwin McNeill Poteat, president of Colgate-Rochester Divinity School (who served as AU's first president); Louie D. Newton, president of the Southern Baptist Convention; Joseph M. Dawson, executive secretary of the Baptist Joint Committee on Public Affairs; Elmer E. Rogers of the Supreme Council of Scottish Rite Masons; John A. Mackay, president of Princeton Theological Seminary; the Rev. G. Bromley Oxnam, Methodist bishop; Carl E. Lundquist of the Lutheran Council; William A. Scarlett, Episcopal bishop; Charl Ormond Williams of the National Education Association; Frank H. Yost of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and Clyde W. Taylor, secretary of the National Association of Evangelicals.
Observed long-time Church & State editor C. Stanley Lowell in his book Embattled Wall, "The founders were a curious combination of liberals and fundamentalists, of Council of Churches and national and fraternal leaders. Clergymen were prominent in the deliberations. It was such a combination as might not have desired to be caught together under any possible set of circumstances. But to defend separation of church and state they did come together."
From the beginning, the plan called for an aggressive, proactive organization that would do more than simply respond to attacks on the separation principle. AU's leaders, for example, were heartened to see the affirmation of separationist principles in Everson, but they also feared that the court had nonetheless created a crack in the wall of separation between church and state. That crack, they knew, could be picked at until it became a chasm. They were determined to keep "the wall" high and firm.
The post-Everson climate not only sparked the creation of Americans United, it also urged other groups, notably the American Jewish Congress, to jump into the fray and defend church-state separation more aggressively. AJC attorney Leo Pfeffer worked closely with Americans United for many years.
"I think the long-run significance of Everson is less doctrinal than it is political," says Gregg Ivers, professor of government at American University, member of Americans United's National Advisory Council and author of several books on church-state relations. "It altered the environment of church-state confrontation. It took it out of the legislative process and put it into the courts. Once it did that, the environment was never the same. Everson created new organizations, like Americans United, and led other organizations to get more involved."
The founders of Americans United were clearly alarmed at the climate. The Manifesto declares boldly, "Congress and all State legislatures, and all executive and judiciary agencies of government must be warned that they are playing with fire when they play into the hands of any church which seeks, at any point, however marginal, to breach the wall that sharply separates church and state in this country. The principle of their separation is so firmly established in a long tradition as well as in the Constitution that any tampering with it will tend to light the fires of intolerance and fanaticism which our system of government is designed to prevent." (See more excerpts from the Manifesto on page 11.)
The Manifesto listed eight "immediate objectives" that the organization would pursue. Topping the list was a campaign of public education to "enlighten and mobilize public opinion in support of religious liberty as this monumental principle of democracy has been embodied and implemented in the Constitution by the separation of church and state."
Other objectives included opposing laws that would give tax money to religious institutions, including religious schools; opposing "sectarian domination" of the public school system and fighting U.S.-Vatican diplomatic ties.
Although formed in 1947, Americans United did not begin soliciting members in earnest until the following year. On Jan. 12, 1948, The New York Times announced the formation of Americans United in a front-page article headliner, "New Body Demands Church Separation," which included generous excerpts from the Manifesto. Seventeen days later, Americans United was officially incorporated in Washington, D.C.
At that time, the organization's full name was "Protestants and Other Americans United for Separation of Church and State," and it was frequently known by the acronym POAU. The inclusion of "Protestants" in the title was not without controversy. The Manifesto explains that the word found its way into the name "only because the churches of that faith represent by far the largest body of citizens whose religious liberty is jeopardized" by efforts to do away with church-state separation.
The document goes on, however, to promise a movement that will "embrace all Americans, whatever their faith may be." (By the mid 1960s, the organization was usually referred to simply as "Americans United." The name was changed officially to Americans United for Separation of Church and State on April 1, 1972.)
The first Americans United National Advisory Council (NAC) reflected the religious and philosophical diversity that the group's founders intended. Some 40 denominational leaders were listed, representing the Unitarians, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists, Christian Scientists, Seventh-day Adventists, Lutherans and other faith communities.
But many educators stood with AU too. Tulane University President Rufus Harris, Macalester College President Charles Turck and Baylor University President W.R. White were among the NAC, as were the NEA's Howard Dawson and African-American educator Mary McLeod Bethune. Writers and scholars Lewis Mumford, Rex Stout, Frank Mead, Guy Emery Shipler, V.T. Thayer, Harry Overstreet and Alfred McClung Lee also served on the advisory body.
By July of 1948, the organization had its first executive director, Dr. Glenn L. Archer, dean of Washburn University Law School in Topeka and a Republican Party activist in Kansas. Archer, a young, dynamic leader with a reputation for spellbinding oratory, forfeited a promising career in politics - he was being groomed to run for governor of Kansas or the U.S. Senate - to run AU from cramped offices in Washington.
Two months earlier, the first issue of AU's monthly publication, then called Church And State Newsletter, rolled off the presses. The first issue, typewritten and simply mimeographed, was only six pages long. The magazine continued to grow and change in appearance, and in September of 1952 was renamed Church & State.
Americans United grew quickly. Although the organization's critics predicted it would collapse within one year, just the opposite occurred; the group flourished. On Jan. 27, 1949, Archer addressed a mass rally at Constitution Hall.
By March of 1949, enough money had been raised to buy Americans United its own home in the nation's capital - a three-story brownstone near a row of embassies at 1633 Massachusetts Avenue. (In December of 1969 AU relocated to the Washington suburb of Silver Spring, Md., where it stayed until it moved back to Washington in September of 1994.)
Americans United moved forward on several fronts. The office churned out pro-separation pamphlets, brochures and issue papers that were distributed nationwide. Members began forming local chapters in states and communities around the country. AU representatives visited members of Congress and state legislators. Rallies were held in churches, fraternal halls and public auditoriums.
The group also launched a legal program. AU attorneys scored an early victory in March of 1949 when a state judge struck down Catholic control of a public school in Dixon, N.M. At the time, it was not uncommon in rural areas for religious groups to run public schools and suffuse them with their own particular dogma. Angry parents who believed their rights were being violated contacted Americans United, and a lawsuit was quickly filed. The judge, E. Turner Hensley, declared the arrangement unconstitutional, and the New Mexico Supreme Court eventually upheld his decision. It was the first of several successful Americans United lawsuits against what became known as "captive schools."
Americans United continued its opposition to tax funding for religious schools through the 1950s and took on other issues as well. Religiously based censorship was common in some parts of the country at the time, and Americans United boldly challenged the right of religious groups to determine what people could read. Prolific AU writer/researcher Paul Blanshard penned a book about the topic, The Right To Read, published in 1955.
During the McCarthy era, Americans United's enemies attacked the organization as "soft on Communism" or even as a "red front." Archer and the AU staff largely ignored such attacks, seeing them for the desperation ploys that they were. In his public speeches, which often drew thousands, Archer, an active Methodist layman who had once considered becoming a missionary, forcefully described church-state separation as a uniquely American principle and explained how in defending it, AU stood up for true Americanism.
The 1960s got under way with a bang: In 1962 and '63 the U.S. Supreme Court issued a pair of rulings declaring government-sponsored religious worship in public schools unconstitutional. The result was an uproar. The decisions were widely misunderstood, and the Supreme Court was accused of "kicking God out of the schools."
Americans United analyzed the decisions and issued statements appealing for calm. In his 1982 autobiography The Dream Lives On, Archer reflected on the fallout from the school prayer rulings. "This ruckus dismayed me, for it showed the depth to which human beings could sink when they do not understand genuine religion and when they think a few formal prayers said by public school pupils each morning can take the place of genuine internal religion," he wrote. "Such ritualistic formality can never replace genuine religion."
Nevertheless, the school prayer decisions sparked outcry in Congress and the beginning of repeated efforts to amend the Constitution to reintroduce school-sponsored worship. The issue would flare up time and again over the next 35 years, occupying much of Americans United's time. It remains a serious threat to church-state separation today.
Although efforts to pass a school prayer amendment in the 1960s failed, the issue emerged again in 1971 with the introduction of a new proposal by Rep. Chalmers Wylie (R-Ohio). The amendment was defeated in the House of Representatives after a massive mobilization by Americans United and its allies.
Taxpayer funding of parochial schools remained a serious threat during the '70s. However, advocates of tax aid to religious schools suffered a setback in 1971, when the Supreme Court handed down an important parochial school aid case, Lemon v. Kurtzman, striking down various forms of tax aid to religious schools. Americans United was among several organizations that sponsored the litigation.
The Lemon victory capped a period of extraordinary success in the courtroom for Americans United. In his book, The Wall of Separation: The Constitutional Politics of Church and State, University of Minnesota scholar Frank J. Sourauf analyzed 67 decisions by federal courts and concluded that Americans United, the ACLU and the American Jewish Congress were the three most influential organizations shaping church-state law in the 1951-1971 period.
Americans United, however, could hardly rest on its laurels. Threats remained as the decade came to a close. Stung by courtroom defeats, parochial school aid advocates shifted strategy and began pitching their idea as aid to parents and students, not parochial schools. Thus the concepts of "education vouchers" and "parental choice" moved toward center stage in the national dialogue.
The late '70s also saw the rise of the Rev. Jerry Falwell and other leaders associated with the modern Religious Right. Throughout much of the 20th Century, fundamentalist and evangelical Protestants had stayed out of politics, and some had even supported church-state separation, at least in principle. But all that changed dramatically. Spurred by rightwing political activists, Falwell and other like-minded preachers and religious broadcasters leaped into national politics and became harsh critics of separation.
In retrospect, it has become obvious that Falwell's Moral Majority was often more bluster than substance, but he laid the groundwork for more sophisticated, grassroots-oriented organizations to come like Pat Robertson's Christian Coalition.
As the 1980s progressed, it became clear that the Religious Right's presence on the national political scene was not a passing fad. Various organizations attacked church-state separation on virtually every front. They demanded school-sanctioned worship in public schools, advocated the teaching of creationism in science classes, sought tax aid for private religious schools, pushed for censorship of books, films and other materials, bashed gay people and tried to ban legal abortion. Fundamentalist churches became centers for partisan political organizing, culminating in Robertson's run for president in 1988.
Robertson formed the Christian Coalition in the wake of his failed bid. The group started small but experienced rapid growth, reaching at least half a million members by the mid 1990s. By this time, Falwell's Moral Majority had collapsed, and Robertson was the undisputed leader of the Religious Right. Americans United began closely monitoring his activities as early as 1982, issuing regular reports in Church & State. (After one 1985 story detailing Robertson's anti-separation record, the TV preacher threatened to file a libel suit. AU refused to back down, and the lawsuit never materialized.)
The '80s and '90s saw Americans United active on numerous fronts. The Senate rejected President Ronald Reagan's tuition tax credit proposal by a 59-38 vote in November of 1983. But parochial school aid advocates kept up the pressure and began pressing legislation in the states and trying to pass plans through state referenda - all of which failed. But by the mid '90s two states, Ohio and Wisconsin, had passed "experimental" voucher bills, which Americans United and other groups immediately challenged in court.
School prayer remained an issue. Americans United helped defeat President Reagan's school prayer amendment, which was rejected by the Senate in 1984. Americans United also dealt with a host of related religion-in-public schools issues and filed important briefs before the Supreme Court in several key religion-in-public-school cases.
In the wake of a 1990 Supreme Court ruling that restricted religious freedom fights, Americans United joined a broad coalition of organizations in drafting and helping to pass the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The act was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1993 but declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court last June.
Aside from the rise of the Religious Right, perhaps the most troubling development about the 1980s and '90s was the Supreme Court's drill away from church-state separation. Several justices appointed during the tenures of Presidents Reagan and George Bush were hostile to the principle. With the court's loyalty to Jefferson's wall wavering, Americans United was forced to rely on other strategies to defend separation of church and state.
Today, under the leadership of Executive Director Barry W. Lynn, Americans United is more active than ever. Headquartered in the heart of Washington on the aptly named Jefferson Place, AU maintains an effective presence in the nation's capital and in state legislatures through its Legislative Department, while the Chapters and Faith Groups Department organizes activists at the grassroots through local chapters and reaches out to sympathetic houses of worship.
Through its legal program, Americans United stands up for the wall of separation in state and federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court. AU's Communications Department produces Church & State as well as a variety of pamphlets and other informational publications on church-state issues. The department also works with news reporters to make sure the media cover church-state issues fully and in an even-handed manner.
Americans United's Development Department ensures that the organization remains on sound financial footing and researches new avenues of support for the group. In addition, AU sponsors a national conference on church and state every year.
Lynn notes that every week Americans United receives dozens of requests for information or assistance with church-state matters. The organization's visibility in the national media is at an all-time high, and AU is considered the leading national organization that opposes the agenda of the Religious Right.
"These are exciting times for Americans United," Lynn said. "During the rest of this year and 1998, we will pause momentarily to reflect on some of our accomplishments over the past five decades, but we will always keep our eyes on the future and Americans United's next 50 years."
Continued Lynn, "Our nation will face many challenges as we approach the 21 st century. The wall of separation between church and state will continue to face assorted salvos and attacks. And Americans United will be there to meet each and every one of them. We're in this battle for the long haul."
RELATED ARTICLE: The Americans United Manifesto
The Americans United Manifesto was drafted to serve as the starting point for the organization's life and work. Drafted primarily by Christian Century editor Charles Clayton Morrison, the document was adopted Nov. 20, 1947, by the founders of Americans United. The following are excerpts from the Manifesto:
The officers and the widely representative National Advisory Council of this organization desire to speak frankly and clearly to the American people concerning the purpose for which this undertaking has been launched. Its single and only purpose is to assure the maintenance of the American principle of separation of church and state upon which the Federal Constitution guarantees religious liberty to all the people and all churches of this Republic.... Americans United has been called into existence because this principle has been and is being violated, and threatened with further violation, in certain areas and by certain acts of both government and church. The plain meaning of the First Amendment to the Constitution, which forbids Congress to make any law "respecting an establishment of religion," has been obscured by specious propaganda tending to confuse the public mind as to the clear-cut line of separation which this Amendment draws between church and state. We shall endeavor (1) to revive in the public mind a clear understanding of the constitutional basis upon which religious liberty has been guaranteed, (2) to redress the specific violations which have recently come into force, and (3) to resist further encroachments upon this constitutional principle.
...Americans United does not concern itself with the religious teaching, the forms of worship, or the ecclesiastical organization of the many churches in our country. It is no part of our purpose to propagandize the Protestant faith or any other, nor to criticize or oppose the teaching or internal practices of the Roman Catholic Church or any other. We have no connection or sympathy with any movement that is tinged with religious fanaticism. Our motivation arises solely from our patriotic and religious concern for the maintenance of the separation of church and state under the American form of government.
Nevertheless, the existing situation cannot be dealt with save by frankly taking account of the specific sources from which violations of the First Amendment originate. But our undertaking is not primarily directed toward these sources, but toward those agencies of government - local, State and Federal - which weakly yield to their demands. Congress and all State legislatures, and all executive and judiciary agencies of government must be warned that they are playing with fire when they play into the hands of any church which seeks at any point, however marginal, to breach the wall that sharply separates church and state in this country. The principle of their separation is so firmly established in a long tradition as well as in the Constitution that any tampering with it will tend to light the fires of intolerance and fanaticism which our system of government is designed to prevent.
Our operations, therefore, are not inspired by any religious differences, but by a common conviction concerning the religious liberty of all faiths. The internal differences which distinguish one church from another have no place on the political level. Their consideration belongs in the open forum which the Constitution has provided for freedom of conscience and the free exchange of opinion. Here all the churches have liberty to worship as they desire, to propagate their own faith, and to maintain such organizations for this purpose as they deem expedient. In the open forum of religious liberty they may meet one another in cooperation or in controversy.
...Americans United has come into existence to defend this open forum of religious liberty against its vitiation by law or the administration of law. The state is forbidden to invade this area. It may not by law or the administration of law accord to any church a status which gives it a special advantage in the wide domain of religious freedom. This is the plain meaning of the First Amendment, which forbids Congress to make any law "respecting an establishment of religion" - that is, pertaining to, or leading toward, such an establishment.
The churches on whose behalf we speak ask nothing for themselves in the exercise of their constitutional freedom which they do not willingly grant to and demand for all other churches. They are content to take their place in the open forum of our free society and to flourish or perish by the inherent strength or weakness of their faith. This is cultural and spiritual democracy. For the state to connive with a church which seeks a position of advantage in the forum of religious liberty by creating any interlocking relation between that church and itself is to deny or to curtail the religious liberty of all other churches and to vitiate democracy.
The Federal Supreme Court in two decisions has confirmed State legislation which sanctions the use of public school funds to provide free textbooks for parochial schools (1930) and to transport pupils to such schools (1947). The four dissenting justices in the bus-transportation case solemnly warned the nation that these two breaches in the wall separating church and state are only the beginning. "That a third and a fourth breach, and still others, will be attempted, we may be sure," say the dissenting justices.
...Americans United is determined to assert its full strength to the end that there shall be no more breaches in this wall, that the breaches already made shall be repaired, and that the complete separation of church and state in an undivided state-supported educational system shall be maintained.
...Americans United respectfully demands that Congress shall not...abdicate its responsibility to defend the Constitution, regardless of political pressure on the part of any sectarian interests which would thus subvert it. The effect of state-supported church schools would spell the end of our public school system as it has been established, fostered, and protected for more than a century. To divide state-supported education into sectarian school systems would divide American society itself into hostile sectarian camps, intensify sectarian intolerance, and thrust a religious issue permanently into the political arena from which our Constitution was designed to exclude it. Next to the Constitution itself, our public school system has been our strongest bulwark against the development of religious intolerance in our political life.
...Americans United proposes to carry on a campaign of enlightenment and mobilization of public opinion throughout the nation until the vital issue which has been raised by these violations and the threat of further violations has been decided by the voice of the people.
The Americanism of the people's representatives in the various branches of government must be stiffened against the promptings of sentimentalism or the low dictates of political advantage to resist the aggressive activities of those who would subvert the Constitution to their own sectarian interest.
In this endeavor we count especially upon the participation of...educators throughout the nation, regardless of their religious affiliations, whose noble profession will be stultified by further encroachments upon the public school system or by the complacent acceptance of those already in force. The teaching profession perceives, perhaps more clearly than others, the evil social consequences in the permanent fissioning of American culture which will result from state support of church-controlled education.
...Americans United for Separation of Church and State proposes to acquaint the representatives of government, all the way up from the local community through the States to Congress, the Supreme Court and the White House, with the fact that an overwhelming body of public opinion... is united in a common purpose to achieve the above objectives, and thus to assure the preservation of the cultural and religious democracy bequeathed by the fathers against any act of government "respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

DC servo and gain stage board with output zobel
I am considering designing a PCB designed to accommodate several generalized gain stages. Each of can be configured as an inverting gain stage/summer
or non-inverting gain stage. When pairs of these are combined you can create an inverting gain stage with a DC servo on the output. This allows you to have very low cutoff frequencies in the servo, e.g. below 1 Hz. It's pretty easy to accommodate the DC servo circuitry on the board and this gives some additional flexibility. You could also use a single stage as the DC servo on a chip amp, if you wanted to add that on to an existing design. Both inverting and non-inverting servos can be created. I am also considering allowing for a zobel on the output, to increase RF isolation, although this is not commonly used. It can always be bypassed, and the same circuitry can be used to create an additional RC LP filter of the DC servo so that much less noise is fed back to the signal path. I am wondering how many people would be interested in such a PCB? Please post if this is you. Thanks -Charlie |

Codeplex of Valley View University has emerged as the only group to successfully enter into this years Microsoft Ghana Imagine Cup competition and also represent Ghana in the global competition.
The Imagine Cup competition, part of Microsofts YouthSpark initiative, is a student competition which centers on the use of imagination, creativity and technology to help solve some of the worlds toughest problems.
A total of 12 teams from different universities from across Ghana registered to contest. However Codeplex was the only team that was able to upload their app into the contest.
The group designed an interactive device which is very useful in homes and by their submission; they do stand a chance of representing Ghana at the Imagine Cup Worldwide Finals in St Petersburg, Russia in July, this year.
Speaking at a press briefing in Accra during the weekend, Mr Yinka Oni, National Technology Officer for Microsoft Anglophone West Africa, said each team that competed in the regional finals deserved the highest recognition for their creativity and imagination applied to some of the worlds biggest challenges.
Were proud to honour Codeplex, who we believe truly exemplifies the spirit of the Imagine Cup competition, and well be cheering team Codeplex on as they compete on the world stage in St Petersburg, he said.
He said Imagine Cup was directly aligned with the Microsoft 4Afrika Initiative which was launched earlier this year aimed to drive access to technology, innovation and world-class skills.
We believe deeply that technology can accelerate growth for Africa, and Africa can also accelerate technology for the world, and we are honoured to engage with these young people to help bring their innovative ideas to fruition, Mr Oni added.
Mr Alfred Priddy, Representative of Hatua Solutions, expressed excitement to be part of this historic and creative initiative.
He said partnering Microsoft to provide solutions to worldwide problems was a giant step in the right direction saying Hatua Solutions is looking forward to building innovative minds that will impact not only our continent, but our world in general.
We were speechless. To have won the competition and to have the opportunity to represent our country at the Worldwide Imagine Cup along some of the brightest young minds is an honour, Davies Tobi Alex, Leader of Codeplex, said.
And we are thrilled to have the opportunity to compete with students from around the globe who, like us, are passionate about making a difference in the world, he added.
The Imagine Cup competition serve as a platform for young entrepreneurs, innovators and developers to have the opportunity to develop an idea, create a product, set a clear business plan and event take their product to market. All Imagine Cup Worldwide Finalist teams are eligible to apply for Imagine Cup Grants, a three-year 3 million dollar investment by Microsoft to help students turn their ideas into reality.
More than 1.65 million students across the globe have participated in Imagine Cup during the past decade, creating applications and games that address the worlds toughest social problems.
This years competition builds on the core elements that have been most popular with students in the past 10 years that is social impact and gaming while expanding the competitions focus on innovation and entrepreneurship.

Andrew Osenga has taken folk music where, arguably, no artist has gone before"space.
How else to explain the Nashville-based singer/songwriter/producer/musician Osenga's "story" Leonard, The Lonely Astronaut, released on September 18. Perhaps the album's theme was born of his love of science fiction and folk? Sure, rockers have explored this concept for years"David Bowie's 1973 album Aladdin Sane and Pink Floyd's 1973 album Dark Side of the Moon come immediately to mind"but it's fairly new territory for folk. Credit Osenga's eclectic taste in music for the turn.
"I was into grunge and then Peter Gabriel, Pink Floyd, all the shows on the big stages," he said of his early influences. "The music was heartfelt but they could hide the fact that they were heartfelt by putting on a big show. When I moved to Nashville I became friends with folk artists and really got into Paul Simon, Emmylou Harris…..And I'm a huge literary nerd, too, so that helped make this." (more…)
Separately, Elora Taylor and Dee Filc are just two twenty-something ladies from Oakville, Ontario. Together, they become something even better, a folk duo called Tallulah Darling that plays stripped down, bare bones rock and country. Though the two cite influences like Miranda Lambert, Loretta Lynn, Dixie Chicks, and Toby Keith, you'll find more street edge in tracks like Can't Stop, Won't Stop. There, a serpentine bass, buzzsaw guitar riffs, and cheeky lyrics are loosely combined for raw, unrefined rock. Metal Heart, on the other hand, is a more lackadaisical meditation on love, wrapped up in acoustic guitars and falsetto vocals. Finally, on This Is Not A Joke, those country roots are unearthed. With the wistful, confessional appeal of Taylor Swift, Mulligan delivers her simple request: This is not a joke so please stop smiling. Mute adoration, however, is permitted.
Amy Stroup is doing just fine, thank you. With an appearance in Prairie Home Companion and song placement on shows like Private Practice, One Tree Hill, and Drop Dead Diva under her belt, the Nashville singer-songwriter is on the rise. Stroup's music has caught on, and it's easy to understand why. Her diaphanous folk melodies are composed with economy, creating wide open spaces for delicate textures"a piano line here, a stroke of cello there. On Hold On To Hope Love"a song that would sound right at home on the Once soundtrack"Stroup tiptoes up the scales as the melody swells like a symphony. With a softly husky voice like Norah Jones, Stroup infuses every lyric with sweetness and light. I'm running over the clouds to you, she sings on Just You. Running over clouds is as good a description as any of her music. And if you're like us, you'll want to join her up in the ether.
SLG: It just comes naturally, really. Johnny and I love all kinds of music and we always put them all into the show. Johnny loves to rock but we also love to tip our hat to history. That is so important. But really, we just love experimenting and finding new voices. That is what [our career together] has uncovered. We really have a good time doing that and can't wait to create more. It is very exciting for us.
OS: A lot of second- or third-generation artists talk a lot about the fans that come to their shows. Some find it frustrating that the fans are there more to embrace the past than to listen to the newer music. You've never really voiced displeasure about any of that.
SLG: I have to say that for the most part, actually the whole part, the fan interactions I've had have been very positive. They always talk about how much Woody's music meant to them growing up and how much Arlo's songs have changed their lives. There are moments where it worries me and I wonder what they expect of me. But they've been very positive and very gracious. It's really been a great thing to have fans embrace the legacy.
Stephanie White was one of the Top 21 female vocalists on American Idol season five, and though the New Jersey native didn't make it as far as Taylor Hicks, it wasn't for a lack of talent. White's got the limber croon of a jazz chanteuse combined with a pop sensibility that makes her music appealing to the masses. With her band of merry musicians, the Philth Harmonics, the singer creates a gumbo of jazz, funk, ska, and even a little Caribbean. Cheat On My BFFL is a cautionary tale for jerk wads wrapped up in a party. The bass bubbles, the guitars strut, the horns bleat, and the girl sings a warning to men who mean her friends harm. Keep the party going with the sultry Prove It or the creeping jazz funk of Trying To Dream For You. Hey, Taylor Hicks"eat your heart out.
Lately, it seems that we are hearing more and more from new and unexpected partnerships between artists of different genres. This is why, through Superlatones, we are creating our very own directory"a musical wish-list, if you will"of artists who have yet to join the collaborative bandwagon.
It's the middle of March and once again, St. Patty's Day is just around the corner. Luckily for us working folk, this year the anticipated holiday falls on a Saturday, which means we are free to participate in the festivities and celebrate. So grab a buddy, pour yourself some Guinness and let this week's dynamic duo start up your weekend with a little Irish flair.

Guatemala, Honduras, Belize and Panama.
How do I load the maps onto my Garmin GPS?
The simple method (recommended): If you have a Garmin GPS, right-click on this link: http://www.CenRut.org/Mapas/gmapsupp.img
to save the GMAPSUPP.IMG file onto your computer. Then connect your GPS to your computer and save the file in
the /Map/ folder on your GPS(you may need to create this folder). Note that older
devices use the /Garmin/ folder
to store the maps. After saving the file
to your GPS,
disconnect the GPS from your computer. That's all!
The complete method: please refer to the complete Windows or the complete Mac method below, as appropriate.
Note: addresses in Latin America are unreliable, so you need to search by the name of the Point of Interest that is your desired destination.
After loading CenRut onto your GPS(with either the simple or complete method), the file should be in this folder on your Nuvi:
How do I know if the Cenrut maps are correctly loaded onto my GPS?
Start your GPS and go to Tools>Settings>Map>Info. You
should see the following:
OK, I have verified that Cenrut is loaded onto my GPS and appreciate all the hard work, now what?
Please make a donation(you choose the amount) to this charity in Venezuela(called "Centro Madre"):

Random note about car rental in Costa Rica:
Be warned that car rental
insurance is a bit of a racket. Even if your rental company swears that the
quoted rate is all-inclusive, this is usually not the case. More info
Can I send data corrections for the maps?
Yes! Please send waypoints and tracks you have recorded, or just describe in an email the item that needs to be corrected!
How good are the maps?
In six of the seven coutries, they are better than the other options we have seen.
The seventh country is Costa Rica, which is lucky enough to have three great options: TRACKIT (commercial), NAVSATCR(commercial) and CENRUT(free).
Why do you do this?
We believe that this is an immensely valuable project that allows us to apply
modern technology to help raise the standard of living in Central America. Plus,
we enjoy it.
Who are you?
The project leader is Willy, who lives in El Salvador. CenRut also works with
similar projects in other countries, including Venezuela (gpsyv.net), Argentina
(proyectomapear.com.ar), and Peru (perut.org).

Wall-to-wall leather
After a modest start, Cam Brown's Buffalo company has grown into a major producer of fine leather goods
- James Fink
- Buffalo Business First Reporter- Buffalo Business First
- Email | Twitter
Sitting in his wood-paneled office with a postcard view of the Niagara River and the smell of leather, it's hard to believe that Cam Brown started his business on a whim and his credit card.
As chairman of Garrett Leather, he has come a long way since fall 1988 when his entrepreneurial spirit led him to start the Buffalo company. Its continued success is a testament to Brown's drive and serves as a case study of how a company can grow in a cyclical economy.
"In the early days I always had this fear of going broke, but I found that is the case with a lot of entrepreneurs," he said.
His company offers high-end Italian leather for products such as seats for private Lear Jets or swanky suites in the Cosmopolitan and Bellagio hotels in Las Vegas.
President Obama's chair in the Oval Office features vintage elk leather. President George W. Bush, who used a Buffalo-made Kittinger chair, also sat on leather provided by Garrett.
Celebrities such as Harrison Ford, Jimmy Buffett and Arnold Schwarzenegger are clients, along with such corporations as Dial Corp., Bear Stearns and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
Not bad for a company that started 24 years ago in a Highland Avenue home.
"Looking back, it certainly seems unlikely," said Brown, a graduate of Park School of Buffalo.
These days, Garrett occupies all four stories and 70,000 square feet of the circa 1920 building on Niagara Street that once was the corporate home and manufacturing base of Mentholatum Co. The leather company moved there in 1998 after buying it for $460,000 when Mentholatum moved headquarters to Orchard Park.
"This building cost less than some of the basic condos in Florida," Brown joked.
Inside are 24 employees who cover everything from sales and marketing to prepping leather for off-site manufacturing. Brown said at any one time, there is more than 2 million square feet of leather in the building.
It comes from an Italian source, which not only skins the hides but tans the product before it is shipped to Buffalo.
Garrett has six sales offices in Dallas, Chicago, Orlando, Washington, Boston and Los Angeles. Soon it will open a New York City showroom on Sixth Avenue.
"You need these because with our product, the touch and smell of leather is really a big selling point," Brown said.
There are more than 20,000 sample books, each the size of the Manhattan phone book and stuffed with more than 550 4-by-4-inch samples.
According to Brown, producing the sample books was one of his biggest expenses but a necessary part of doing business.
"Again, ours is a business that relies on the senses – the look, feel and smell of leather," he said.
Using some connections from a previous job, he started the business by securing deals with Lear Jet and the former Bonaventure Co., a Montreal-based firm. Lear Jet remains a loyal customer.
Few, if any, early clients realized that Brown was working from an extra bedroom in his Buffalo home. He was able to parlay connections to broker deals between leather suppliers and his clients. Garrett eventually moved to a small Elmwood Avenue office building and then to Kenmore Avenue before buying the former Mentholatum property.
Brown said his business grew as a result of the buzz that was generated about its finely crafted products. These weren't cheap knockoffs.
At one point in the early years, aviation contracts – mostly work from Lear Jet and other top-end private plane manufacturers – accounted for 65 percent of the client base. These days it's more diverse.
Clients include some of the nation's top residential and commercial architecture and design firms, as well as major hospitality industry chains such as Sheraton Hotels, the Beau Rivage Casino, Atlantic City's Borgata Casino and Hotel and the Four Seasons hotels.
Corporate clients include Buffalo's New Era Cap Co., the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and Minnesota Timberwolves basketball team. The company also crafts leather products for automobile and motor coach interiors.
Aggressive marketing and sales pitches helped keep things going when the economy faltered and discretionary spending on upper-end products was scaled back. Since 2008, annual sales of the privately held company increased an average 12 percent.
Brown attributes that to being more nimble than larger competitors, saying, "We are not subject to someone in some other office telling us what we can and can't do."
In recent years, he has gone after clients who reside or have businesses outside North America. Brown's son, Max, handles much of those sales calls. The strategy landed some major contracts to supply leather products for Dubai International Airport and furnishings in Hotel Dubai.
"I certainly came a long way from Highland Avenue," he said.

There has been no discernible improvement in the death rate for babies at' or around' the time of bi.
A 27-year-old woman has been arrested for the alleged murder of her three-year-old son at Ntshatshongo, near Willowvale, Eastern Cape police said on Monday.
"It is alleged that the three-year-old deceased was sleeping with his mother (who is now the suspect) on the night of Saturday at their home, which is at Ntshatshongo Location, Willowvale," said Captain Jackson Manatha.
He said family members found the deceased bleeding and already dead on the Sunday morning, and police suspect the mother beat the young boy to death.
"The 27-year-old mother of the deceased was arrested and charged for murder, as she was the only person who was sleeping with the infant."
To kill a 3 year old, you must beat him harder than you might expect. Blak motherly love, SA style!
Poor little innocent thing, the heavens cry for you.
Just let us say sympathetic things, and not expect real change, because we have to vote for the party that can not deal harshly and consistently with criminals. And yes, gentle readers, the "mother" is a criminal.

I doubt that winning over fans of the EU is going to a major concern of Disney.
So people who don't read Star Wars books are illiterate and lazy? Charming as ever. I read a lot, most of it SF and I could never get into the EU.

February 27, 2015 Excellent item and prompt delivery. James A Todd Las Vegas Nevada February 26, 2015 Great filter, perfect fit, notice increase in power right away during first ride with the filter. I have K&N filters in my bike and all my cars. Love the product, can't go wrong. Quentin Temecula, California February 26, 2015 From the time I installed the K&N air filter in my 2007 Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptor the difference was like night and day!!I Experienced smoother idle and quicker throttle response and a increase in mpg! I am very sold on K&N filters. Robert Briley Wichita Kansas February 26, 2015 The filter fit perfectly in the air box on my 2014 Jeep Cherokee V-6. It even seemed to make the performance a little better. I have used your filters on other vehicles I have and so I was not surprised at the quality and fit of this one. And at this time the stock paper filter from Jeep was the same price. One more reason I chose the K&N Filter. Ray Jenkins Mesa, Arizona February 26, 2015 Noticed better throttle response. Joshua New York February 26, 2015 Absolutely the best air filter on the face of the planet. I have one in my 2006 Jaguar XK-8 Convertible, my 98 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC, my wife's 2013 Honda CRV, and my 94 Chev S-10 Blazer.I wouldn't use anything else in my vehicles. If it's not K&N it's not a filter worth having. Why else would I use a K&N in my $90,000 hand built Jaguar XK-8. Rick Shoemake Portland, Oregon February 26, 2015 Quick and easy to find out what air filter I needed. Order was quick and delivery was fast. Fit perfectly on my custom K&N air filter system on my truck. Jesse Frederick, Mayrland February 26, 2015 Very fast shipping, quality product as expected Jim Florida February 26, 2015 I have had 2 K&N products before, but never bought directly on website. Usually it was from retailers here in Brazil. I have bought an air filter for my Mini Cooper in the website because its a new item, and in less than a week it got at home! (Im from Brazil, so im used to long delays). The price is fair, the quality is amazing, and the shipping is blazing fast!!! Awesome!! A+, 5 stars! Victor Hugo Lopes Sao Paulo, Brazil February 26, 2015 Love your products. Kyle Graff St. George UT February 26, 2015 Love your products. Kyle Graff St. George UT February 26, 2015 Love your products! Kyle Graff St. George Utah February 26, 2015 Although I haven't received this filter yet, my experience goes back to those I've used on my BMWs.Next year, when I will finally get rid of this car,(Sonata 2.0T ) I intend to go back to either BMW, or Alfa Romeo. The two cars that have given me, for the last 40 years the satisfaction I want in the automotive field. Joseph M. LoMagno Marlboro, New Jersey February 26, 2015 Awesome product. Ashik K.A India February 26, 2015 Awesome. Ashik K.A India February 25, 2015 2014 5.7 Ram truck 15,000 miles. It took me an hour to install. 30 minutes was assembling the box. Throttle response is quicker. Noticeable amount of torque. The motor can breathe easy. Got 3 extra mpg. Check to make sure you have all the tools before delivery. Take your time. Fill up before you install. Cuz you ain't gonna take your foot off when you hear that motor finally breathe deep! Danny Hubbz Illinois February 25, 2015 Great product! Looks fantastic and coupled with my [brand] exhaust system makes a fantastic mellow rumble. Josh Georgia February 25, 2015 I've been using K&N air filters for ever. Never had one fail. I wish it was like the old days when they were in the old buildings off of Iowa in Highgrove. You could stop by and get an adaptor for a Fj40 or whatever. That first filter I boughtmust have been a foot tall but they helped me make it fit. Getting old so this could be my last truck. Richard Holmes California February 25, 2015 I love the intake installation. Only took me 45min. Very easy to install. Love the sound. Very impresive results at the dyno. Rafael Florida February 25, 2015 Amazing!! Can feel the difference. Haven't had my stereo on since I installed it, just want to listen to that turbo spool and blow off! About all I can hear now is constant turbo :) Max Whitworth Branson, Missouri February 25, 2015 This is more of a thanks to you guys , I bought a Blackhawks cold air intake for a 2009 GMC Sierra 5.3 liter crew cab with the 6 speed and I'm thoroughly impressed with it I have videos of my 0 to 100mph runs bone stock and runs with the intake and was very pleased with the results. I live up in Alaska so trucks and performance is what we do . Just wanted to say good job and bad a** intake. BJ Alaska February 25, 2015 It''s pricey but so worth it !!! The sound is deep and growls with the 3.5 v6 model , I love it , not to many reviews on this so that's why I had to give it one ! There is a power gain ! Miguel Colorado February 25, 2015 Easy installation. Increased in horse power. Had some minor issues with parts and your team was able to provide me with adequate and quick help. My parts was sent quick. Thank you. Den Nevada February 25, 2015 This is a great product. It really saves gas. Luisa Florida February 24, 2015 Made from high quality material with a perfect fit. I'm completey satisfied with the product and service. Charles Arndt Haven, Kansas February 24, 2015 I purchased the K&N air filter for my Jeep Wrangler. This makes the seventh vehicle I have replaced the stock air filter with the K&N air filter. I have been using K&N filters since 1997. As soon as I get a new vehicle I replace it with one of your filters. Needless to say, I'm sold on your filters. C. Lewis McDearmon, Jr. Virginia February 24, 2015 Been using K&N products for many years and am happy with them all. Delivery was very good. Robert Martin Colorado February 24, 2015 Excellent service. Website is easy to navigate, and well laid out. Order was shipped in a timely fashion. Order was in like new condition upon arrival. I will definitely use K&N again. Wade Eaddy Sanford North Carolina February 24, 2015 This is not my first K&N Air filter. Also use oil filters on my two Harley bikes. They are the best. William Lamb Amarillo Texas February 24, 2015 Fits perfectly. Great product. My clients are excited with it. Grupo CCB Panama February 24, 2015 Super fast shipping, excellent product, easy to order, could not ask for more! Thank you Tim Oregon February 24, 2015 Super fast shipping, excellent product, easy to order, could not ask for more! Thank you Tim Oregon February 24, 2015 Perfect fit. Exact replacement.

Waiting to see if any issues develop long term, at the moment I'm happy with my purchase. Jay Florida February 24, 2015 Very pleased with this product! Steve Singleton Kentucky February 24, 2015 Helped save on gas. Allie Maryland February 24, 2015 I installed this kit on my 2013 road glide io3. Put it on with ease. I noticed a gain in power right off the bat. I'm having the bike tuned shortly after I put the cams and [brand] header on. I would highly recommend this kit for baggers. If I noticed a difference in power, I know you would to. Jonney Galion Ohio February 24, 2015 I've had a K&N air filter in my 2005 GMC. It has been great. Ray Moniz North Branford , Connecticut February 23, 2015 Love the product. My truck sounds mean and I feel the horse power added. Easy Installation. Thanks K&N. :-) Raul El Paso Texas February 23, 2015 Great filter. Joshua Holt Virginia February 23, 2015 Good product Jessie Frost Musella, Georgia February 23, 2015 Great product. James Johnson.nson Oakland California February 23, 2015 Filter works fine. Iits a half inch shorter that the Volvo oem filter. Capacity size is the only reason I gave it just 4 stars. Other than that it seems to do its job great. I''ve always liked K&N products and am currently using their air filter and fuel filter in my 2004 Volvo xc70 with good results. Kevin West Virginia February 23, 2015 Was looking for a filter for my 48 IDA Webber carbs with C B Performance off-road filters and these fit perfectly. I have always used K&N filters in all my off-road vehicles for the last 40 years. Russ California February 23, 2015 As always....K&N rocks....a pleasure to run with K&N Alex Gonzalez Hidalgo, Texas February 23, 2015 This filter looks and performs great. I purchased as a spare when I clean the other one. Its looks just like the first one I purchased in 2004. Thank you Tom Downs Louisville Kentucky February 23, 2015 Works very well on my 2013 SHO. Improved gas mileage,performance is very noticeable. Runs stronger. Starts like lighting...If you don't own it I'll meet you on the street ..good LUCK ..say hello to my taillights !!!!

The power delivery is improved and the shifts seem smoother and there is an improvement in gas mileage. The sound is intoxicating once you get to 3500 rpm it is loud...really loud. Dave W Battle Ground Washington February 23, 2015 The new filter provides a noticeable difference in the responsiveness of the motor, especially at higher RPM''s.
