Beyond Narnia: Dramatic Glimpses Into C.S. Lewis' World
- Thursday, March 30, 2006
"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" just passed "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" to make it the number two top-grossing film released in 2005. It is fair to say that Narnia has eclipsed just about everyone's expectations and the sequel – "Prince Caspian" – is already green-lit for release in December 2007.
Rising with "Narnia"'s box office receipts is interest in the story's creator, C.S. Lewis. While there are a number of good Lewis biographies, those introduced to his stories via film might prefer that medium to gain insight into his life. Fortune has smiled upon them.
The Hallmark Channel, in association with Gaiam, Lightworks and Faith & Values Media, has created "C.S. Lewis: Beyond Narnia," a dramatized look at Lewis' life and works. Clocking in at just under an hour, this movie covers more ground than the well-received "Shadowlands" (which focused almost exclusively on Lewis' romance with Joy Davidman). And while the film is not exhaustive in its coverage, it serves as an outstanding introduction that will entice viewers to look more deeply – or, in Lewis' terms, to go "further up and further in."
"Beyond Narnia" mixes a lively Lewis (well-played by Anton Rogers, who provides the theological, philosophical, and sometimes whimsical, context) with dramatic reenactments of scenes from his life. The film is often emotionally moving, but for those who treasure the ideas behind the man, it also illuminates many of the important concepts in a wide array of Lewis' writings. Much of the narration is near-verbatim quotations from Lewis' books. Four of these ideas are especially
prevalent: the relationship between imagination and longing, the persistence of God's love, the alien nature that pervades human life and the journey and destination of faith.
Imagination and Longing
In "Surprised by Joy," Lewis' autobiography, he introduces his readers to the concept of sehnsucht – a kind of desperate longing for something that slips away just as you intend to grasp it. In many of his writings Lewis comments on the power of sehnsucht and the way that it points beyond this world. "Beyond Narnia" introduces this concept, without naming it, by exploring Lewis' first contact, as a child, with it.
As a boy, Lewis and his brother, Warnie, often played together by making up fanciful stories populated by talking animals and characters out of mythology. Lewis comments that "Imagination reflects heavenly truth. It took me a long time to realize that fact. There's no escaping it." One day, Warnie shows Jack a tiny garden that he has constructed on a cookie tin. Lewis is fascinated. He describes the experience as a combination of "bliss, loss and longing all at once, a desire beyond words." He calls it "Joy."
In our modern manufactured world, it might be hard to imagine such a stirring idea growing out of a homemade toy. The idea of longing (with its corresponding requirement to wait) is experienced in the West as a sense of unease – a feeling that things are not as they should be and that there should be something more. Lewis puts a name to that desire, and if viewing the film brought only that idea to light for discussion it would be invaluable.
God's Ever-Approaching Step
"Beyond Narnia" chronicles Lewis' journey from praying child to preaching professor -- but it does not leave out some messy detours along the way. In the film, Lewis, as a child, adores his mother. When she falls ill with lung cancer, he prays fervently for a miracle so that she might recover. Even when she dies, Lewis is undaunted. He prays that God will bring her back – reasoning that God has resurrected someone once before so there is no reason in his child's mind that He cannot do so again. When she is buried, and the boys are sent away to boarding school, Lewis becomes a determined atheist. He is delighted that his new teacher, known as The Great Knock, shares his rejection of God. His experiences of senseless death during World War I only strengthen his position.

Authorities say they have made an arrest in connection with a Buckhead carjacking.SKYFOX 5 was over the scene when a man was arrested after police executed a search warrant at a home on Tarragon Way in southwest Atlanta on Friday. Investigators said that the suspect, 24-year-old Ronnie Houston, hid behind a washing machine when U.S. Marshals knocked on his grandmother's door.U.S. Marshals tell FOX the arrest was related to the recent carjackings where the suspects bump the back of a car and when the victims stop and then get robbed.Last week, authorities warned motorists concerning a series of carjackings in Buckhead. The first case took place on Pharr Road on April 26. Another carjacking took place on Elsworth Industrial on May 1. Then on May 2, a carjacking that began with a tap on the bumper occurred near West Wesley and Howell Mill roads.Authorities arrested Houston in connection with the May 1 carjacking. U.S. Marshals said they found a purse and wallet that belonged to the bump-jacking victim inside the house they search on Friday. They said they also found what looks like stolen items from other robberies."Apparently has been involved in some other criminal activities, robberies and whatnot, not just in Atlanta, but outside the city as well," said Sgt. Greg Lyon of the Atlanta Police Department.Houston is charged with armed robbery, hijacking a motor vehicle, aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, two counts of financial transaction card theft, hit and run and driving without a license on person.Investigators are working to determine if Houston is part of a gang."He's affiliated with a few individuals. At this time, we're still determining whether or not he's affiliated to specific branch or a specific gang," said Inspector Eric Heinze.FOX 5's Chris Shaw reports that records show 15 different mugshots for 15 different times in the last few years that Houston was booked into jail.

Louisville, Ky. (WHAS11) - Three fraternities are pledging their help to find 1,000 African-American fraternity men to become Big Brothers this year. The dance music was booming for a celebration of the commitment Saturday, August 15 at Cox Park.
Former Big Brothers said it's important they find new members to help young men achieve their dreams; they say it's all about giving back.
"Sometimes, people think that this requires you to be a parent," said Alpha Phi Alpha member Charles Piphus. "It doesn't. It requires you to simply be a friend, in the sense of teaching responsibility and helping to mold and shape them in a way that they'll remember forever."
If you want to help a young person become a great adult you can contact the Louisville Office of Big Brothers, Big Sisters.

Spread thin Britain stretched to capacity as UK worker frustration grows with slow recovery, says Randstad report
Return to index
UK employees appear to be running out of patience with their organisations as they face up to Britain's fourth year of economic downturn, according to a report from Randstad, the world's second largest recruitment company. Randstad's annual World of Work research of over 200 organisations and 1,400 employees has identified three key talent dynamics which could affect Britain's recovery if unchecked.
The Spread Thin Effect:
Lower headcount budgets mean 23% of organisations acknowledge their people are working at full stretch – and have no spare capacity to achieve more. Yet organisations admit the need to make people work harder to increase productivity is a top three priority on the HR agenda.
Boiling Point Talent:
A tenth of those people surveyed are actively looking for a new job, to escape the grind of working in their current organisation. Thirty six per cent of employed respondents' state they would take the first job they were offered elsewhere as long as the salary and benefits were commensurate with their current position, whilst 7% would take the first job offered regardless of the remuneration package. Those earning over £52,000, regularly working over 40 hours a week (typically people in critical organisational positions) emerged as the most disengaged and most likely to move on as soon as they can.
The top three reasons for people wanting to leave their employer included: 1) lack of career opportunities, 2) personal/lifestyle choices, and, 3) uncompetitive remuneration – which employers do recognise as push factors. However, only 26% of those people surveyed said they received a pay review in the last year.
Stagnant Talent Pools:
A desire to move does not necessarily translate into an ability to move. Lack of demand and an uncertain economy mean many people feel compelled to stay with an employer they would rather leave. Fourteen per cent of respondents admit to feeling dissatisfied with their current employer.
Mark Bull, CEO of Randstad UK, said: "Our report highlights that employees are creaking under the strain of having to work exceptionally hard over the last few years, to keep their organisations going through what remains a very uncertain economic climate."
"For some, the test is simply too exhausting; they are starting to give up, with stagnant talent pools emerging in organisations - the people may be present but they are contributing little. Others are tired of working so hard for such a long time with little additional reward. They are reaching boiling point in their desire to be recognised - driving them to consider options elsewhere. However, our research shows that doing 'meaningful work' under clear leadership is a key motivator which doesn't require significant financial investment. Tapping into this will enable organisations to be more productive, and will help retain and attract the talent they need. It's not easy to get right but it's crucial that organisations review their engagement strategies as a matter of urgency. Ensuring that line management understands and is prepared to perform their pivotal role in driving engagement is a vital component of this."
The full report will be available on October 17th - to register your interest please email Belinda Walmsley at
The World of Work Research Preview Report
The report was compiled using data from the following proprietary research:
The Workmonitor Mobility Index
• The index tracks worker confidence and captures expectations surrounding the likelihood of changing employers within a six month time frame, providing a comprehensive understanding of job market sentiments and employee trends. In addition to measuring mobility, the survey also tracks employee satisfaction and personal motivation, and includes a rotating set of themed questions. The quarterly research is conducted in 29 countries around the world.
• The quantitative study is conducted via an online questionnaire among a population aged 18-65, working a minimum of 24 hours a week in a paid job (not self-employed). The sample size was 405 interviews in the UK conducted by Survey Sampling International. Research for the third wave of 2011 was conducted between July 18th and August 8th.
Randstad client and candidate surveys
• This client and candidate surveys were completed by 1,237 respondents across both the public and private sector between 23rd July and 16th September 2011. The surveys were conducted on-line. The full report will be issued on the 17th October.

Researchers continue to find new treatment methods for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). People with this cancer now have more hope for survival than ever before.
The choices that you have for treatment depend on these things:
Results of your lab tests
Your health status
Your age
Your personal needs or special considerations
Your subtype of AML
These are the phases of treatment:
Remission induction. The goal of this treatment is to kill as many leukemia cells in the blood and bone marrow as possible. This usually puts the leukemia into remission, which means you don't have signs or symptoms of the cancer. For it, you usually get chemotherapy.
Consolidation (postremission) therapy. The goal of this treatment is to kill any remaining leukemia cells and keep you in remission. Younger patients typically get more intensive chemotherapy for several cycles or a stem cell transplant. Older patients may get slightly less intensive treatment.
Maintenance therapy. Longer term maintenance chemotherapy is not part of the standard regimen for most types of AML, but the treatment for people with the acute promyelocytic leukemia (M3) subtype is different. These patients get other drugs, often along with chemotherapy, during the first 2 phases. They may also get further, less intensive treatment for at least a year afterward.

'SpongeBob SquarePants' Saves Another Kid's Life
Back in April, we told you about Miriam Starobin, who saved best friend Allyson Golden's life with the help of the Nickelodeon cartoon "SpongeBob SquarePants." When Allyson started choking on a piece of gum in music class, Miriam gave her the Heimlich manuever.
"I didn't even have to think about," she told PIX 11 News. "I just went over there, picked her up and started performing the Heimlich."
Starobin said that she started performing the lifesaving procedure after recalling an episode of "SpongeBob SquarePants" in which SpongeBob's cranky neighbor, Squidward, choked on his clarinet.
Now another child has saved a friend's life with the help of SpongeBob!
"The Early Show" reports that 8-year-old New Jersey boy Reese Ronceray saved his 5-year-old neighbor, Andrew Gentile, from drowning last weekend with a technique he says he learned from the "SpongeBob" cartoon.
We feel A LOT better now about all those "SpongeBob" episodes we've let our kids watch .... Who knows when all that "edutainment" may become lifesaving?!
Have you thought about adding some relevant links to your article? I think it might enhance everyones understanding.
I Will have to return again whenever my course load lets up - nonetheless I am getting your Feed so i can read your internet site offline. Cheers.
It is truely good post, but I do not see everything completely clear, especially for someone not involved in that topic. Anyway very interesting to me.
After I start your Rss feed it appears to be a ton of garbage, is the issue on my side?

Lots of people have said humbling things about Start Investing with $100. Find out who and what they've said in their reviews of the course.
"Joel understands the concepts of investing on a small scale better than anyone I know. If you've been trying to figure out how to get into the game with limited resources, this course will put you on the right path." ~ Tyler Tervooren, Advanced Riskology
"Start Investing with $100 is the course I wish I had when I began investing. It brings together the best resources and information, saving you days spent combing through them on your own. Joel walks you through each step of the investing process with efficient, actionable modules that get you moving in minimal time. You'll also understand why you're doing what you're doing and learn how to take charge of your investments. Follow the Start Investing with $100 plan and you will be investing in just two short weeks." ~ Erin Kurup, {re}made by hand
"I went to business school and worked a job in finance, but Joel's investing course still managed to teach me new stuff. Forget get rich quick programs, technical trading secrets, or picking hot stocks. All you need to get your money working for you is this course and an Internet connection. Don't expect to be told what investments to pick as Start Investing with $100 teaches the fundamentals everyone should know – but often don't understand – and then points you forward to your first trade. And I mean really points you since each module has links to dozens of awesome resources on the web." ~ Amit Amin, Happier Human
If you like what you see, perhaps you'd like to join a new generation of confident investors right here?

After a Fashion: Classic, Humorous, Subversive...
The Stephen Daiter Gallery offers its first ever, fashion-oriented exhibition. The fifty or so photographic works by over twenty artists, span seven decades and have been very carefully selected to represent a variety of views on the subject - from some thought-provoking images (including one by Carrie Mae Weems) involving the introduction and induction of young girls to the world of beauty and fashion, to Robert Heinecken's heretical inversions of magazine spreads undermining the very pictures he so carefully presents. In between are some of the classics, including Victor Skrebneski's, Vanessa Redgrave (the 1967 portrait that put him on the fashion world's map) - Herb Ritts' famous profile of the sultry Madonna, and Helmut Newton's capture of a stunning and scowling Paloma Picasso. Sandro Miller offers an affectionate and respectful look into an alternative fashion universe, with gleaming studio portraits of heavily tattooed and leather-clad bikers. Kenneth Josephson adds his trademark offbeat touch providing not only photographs of his model but all the clothes that she had been wearing, as well. And here and there are some pictures (like Art Shay's nocturnal portrayal of a forlorn patron of a beauty salon looking quite out of place as she peers out from under a beehive hairdryer - framed in the camera's eye by several perfect if lifeless heads of available hair) that lightly jab at the whole notion of vanity, and remind us not to take ourselves too seriously all in all a helluva fun show!
After a Fashion opens with a reception with several of the artists
on Friday, November 5th from 5 8 pm.

By "great" I mean hilarious! If you are going to steal gas without paying, then you might want to coordinate with your driver a bit better. Here is video of a woman and her friend stealing gas from a station in Australia. The only problem happens when the driver attempts the get-a-way without making sure his friend is clear of the pumps long tube.
The cops are still looking for them, but she might have already received her punishment.


text: Many international development organisations hold that persistent poverty in the Global South is caused largely by corruption among local public officials. In 2003 these concerns led to the United Nations Convention against Corruption, which asserts that, while corruption exists in all countries, this "evil phenomenon" is "most destructive" in the global South, where it is a "key element in economic underperformance and a major obstacle to poverty alleviation and development". There's only one problem with this theory: It's just not true.[more inside]

New parking makes use of Blackbird Leys' grass verges (From thisisoxfordshire)

New parking makes use of Blackbird Leys' grass verges
7:00pm Tuesday 21st January 2014 in News By Emma Harrison
PARKING spaces have been created in a busy estate road as part of a £500,000 council project.
The 18 spaces, including a disabled parking bay, are on grass verges at the junction of Blackbird Leys Road and Balfour Road.
It has raised kerbs, shrub beds, tree planting and bollards on adjacent grass to stop people parking there.
Bollards have also been installed in the adjacent grassed area to prevent parking in that area.
Metal grids have been used that allow the grass to come through but provide a hardstanding for cars to park on.
It is the second parking facility to be completed as part of Oxford City Council's Great Estates project aimed at providing more off-street parking.
Spaces have also been created in Ashurst Way, Rose Hill, and five more will be completed by April 1. This will include work to start later this month at Monks Close in Blackbird Leys. A further £100m will be spent in the 12 months from April.
Council board member for housing Scott Seamons said: "This project has provided not only parking spaces for residents on Blackbird Leys Road but also improved the quality of the external environment in this area – the main entrance to the Leys.
"Alongside the new parking spaces, new hedges and trees have been planted and the remaining grass will be protected. The end result is much tidier."
Mr Seamons added: "Through this investment we are increasing the number of purpose-designed off-street parking spaces, a move welcomed by local residents and a common request in our consultations surrounding Leys Regeneration.
"Our estates were built many decades ago when there were fewer cars.
"It's important that we provide additional car parking spaces to meet demand and so people are not forced to park on the grass, making the area look untidy.
"We have identified a number of further areas in Blackbird Leys and across the city for additional parking, though with today's financial pressures it will take time to deliver in all these areas."
Blackbird Leys Parish Council chairman Gordon Roper said: "I think it is well done by Oxford City Council.
"It is well overdue. It will be good for the residents who park there.
"The sooner all these things are done the better to alleviate the problems.
"People would park along the road and also on a big grass verge – it was absolutely destroyed.
"The work has tidied it up."

FALL 2014 Semester Pre-Arrival Information
Congratulations on your admission to Texas Tech University! The staff of the International Students and Scholars Services (ISSS) office extends this welcome to you and offers suggestions in preparation for your arrival.
Lubbock may be reached from all major cities by bus or plane. Train service is not available to Lubbock. The cost of a taxi from the Lubbock airport to Texas Tech is approximately $25. If you arrive in Lubbock by bus, the taxi charge from the bus station to Texas Tech will be approximately $9. Also, there is limousine service from the airport to Texas Tech which costs $30 per hour. After arriving in Lubbock you must check-in at ISSS in the International Cultural Center (there is a huge steel globe in front of the building) located at 7th Street and Indiana Avenue behind the Museum of Texas Tech and across Indiana Avenue from the University Medical Center hospital. Please refer to the schedule below to determine when you should report to ISSS.
CHECK-IN and ORIENTATION
All TTU international students must complete two requirements upon arrival in the United States:
- Check in with ISSS in the International Cultural Center; and,
- Complete an immigration orientation.
As Texas Tech does not provide transient housing, you will need to obtain temporary lodging until you are able to arrange permanent quarters. There are several hotels located near campus. Reservations are recommended. The cost of temporary housing for your first nights in Lubbock will be your responsibility and can cost as much as $70.00 to $100.00 per night.
Texas Tech does have on-campus housing available for single students (no married housing). If you have questions or want to discuss TTU residence facilities, please contact the University Student Housing department at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Off-campus housing can be arranged after you arrive. The most recent off-campus housing guide published by the TTU Student Government Association is available at this web page. http://www.texastechword.com/HousingGuide2013.pdf.
If you are transferring to Texas Tech University as an F-1 student from another U.S. institution, please notify your international student advisor or Designated School Official (DSO) at your current school of your intention to transfer to Texas Tech. Your school will then release your SEVIS record to Texas Tech. Transfer procedures are available on the ISSS web page and an Incoming F-1 Transfer Form can be found at this webpage http://www.iaff.ttu.edu/main/isss/currentstudentscholars/f1formslist.asp.
If you live overseas and have not yet applied for your visa, please submit your acceptance letter, a valid passport, evidence of payment of the SEVIS fee, proof of financial support, and the Texas Tech I-20 form to the nearest U.S. Consulate or Embassy to apply for the F-1 student visa. Please check the web page of the U.S. consulate http://usembassy.gov/ for any special local requirements. Do not attempt to enter the United States any earlier than 30 days before the report date in item 5 of your I-20. If you do, you may be rejected for entry into the U.S. and will have to return to your home country.
All new and transfer students are encouraged to keep up with any new immigration information by going to our website at http://www.iaff.ttu.edu.
The report date in item 5 of your I-20 is a specific date that requires you to enter the United States by that date. If you do not enter the U.S. by the report date on your I-20, you can be denied entry into the U.S. Once you enter the U.S., you must report to the ISSS at Texas Tech University within 15 days of your date of entry, participate in the orientation sessions, and register for classes.
Do not attempt to enter the United States any earlier than 30 days before your report date in item 5 of your Form I-20. If there is a problem with the I-20, please contact the ISSS at email@example.com as soon as possible and before you depart for the United States. Protect and secure your documents on your person before and during your flight, and after you arrive in the U.S. When you arrive at the U.S. Port of Entry (POE), you must submit the I-20 form and your passport with the valid F-1 visa to the U.S. POE inspection official. You might also be asked for evidence of payment of the SEVIS fee. Your I-20 will be returned to you at the POE. It is imperative that you bring your passport, I-20, and copy of your I-94 (which is now automated and you must retrieve a copy at https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/request.html with you when you come to the ISSS for check-in. Also, if you have attended any other academic institution in the U.S., we should have copies of the I-20s from those institutions.
The university estimates minimum expenses for nine months to be approximately $30,000 (graduate) and $33,000 (undergraduate), but actual expenses vary greatly according to tuition, fees, and number of courses taken by a given student. The university also reserves the right to make changes in tuition and fees at anytime.
Students on F-1 and J-1 visas should have at least $4,000 in their possession upon arrival in Lubbock. We recommend that you bring as much of the amount as you are allowed to transfer. Please plan accordingly. Tuition and fee payments are due before classes begin.
If you plan to bring your spouse and child(ren) with you, add approximately $6,500 for your spouse and $4,600 per child for 12-month living expenses. Students are urged to have adequate financial means for their entire period of study, since there are few financial resources at the University. Note: Please take extra care with any amount of currency that you may have on your person. Be sure to properly secure these items and your immigration documents while you are traveling.
Auto: If you plan to purchase an automobile, your required liability insurance will cost between $800 - $2,500 U.S. per year.
Medical: Emergency medical, evacuation and repatriation insurance is essential in the U.S. due to the high cost of medical care. To assure non-immigrant student compliance with United States financial responsibility requirements, Texas Tech University requires all non-immigrant students enrolled in one or more class hours to purchase the Texas Tech Student Health Insurance. Insurance FAQ. The insurance premium will be charged on your tuition and fee bill. In addition to the required insurance for students, we strongly recommend that all students have health insurance for their dependents in the United States. Medical insurance is particularly important in the U.S. as medical care is not subsidized by the government and is very expensive. Dependent insurance cannot be placed on the student's tuition and fee bill.
The U.S. Department of State requires that all J-1 Exchange Visitors and their dependents have health, evacuation and repatriation insurance.
Due to an increased incidence of Tuberculosis (TB), international students will be tested for this very communicable disease. If you have had a TB test within the last year bring documentation of the test results.
All students will also be required either to show proof of two (2) immunizations for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR), or they will have to be immunized. Immunizations will be offered through Student Health for a fee
Students who have had two MMR immunizations must submit written proof of adequate immunization.
The state of Texas requires all students entering an institution of higher education in Texas as of January 2012 and thereafter to provide documentation that they have had a meningococcal (bacterial meningitis) vaccine. This vaccine must have been administered during the five-year period prior to the first day of classes of the semester they will enter Texas Tech. If you have had a meningococcal vaccine, but it was administered longer ago than described above, you must receive another dose of the vaccine
For more information on vaccination/immunization requirements, check out http://www.admissions.ttu.edu/index.php/admission-financial_aid/meningitis-vaccine/medical-requirements-for-international-students/. With all immunization records, or letters from physicians, please provide translated copies (if possible).
The University is located in Lubbock, Texas, a city with a population of more than 225,000. The city is located on the high, flat plains of West Texas, approximately 600 kilometers west of Dallas/Fort Worth, and 600 kilometers east of Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico. It is one kilometer above sea level. The South Plains area of West Texas surrounding Lubbock is a short-stem grass region that is primarily used for growing cotton. Oil production is also important in the regional economy. Its climate is excellent, with over 3,550 hours of sunshine every year. Summers are dry and not extremely hot, while winters are dry and moderate. The average annual rainfall is less than 46 centimeters. The average temperature is 16 C. The January average is 4 C, and the August average is about 27 C. Although extended periods of extremely hot or extremely cold temperatures are not common, visitors should be prepared for temperatures as high as 44 C in the summer and as low as -16 C in the winter. The average wind speed is approximately 20 km/h.
If you have additional questions, please contact us. The staff of the ISSS looks forward to meeting you. For more information, see our web site at http://www.iaff.ttu.edu.

"This estate's staff believes that the 1996 Mouton-Rothschild is very complex. I agree that among the first-growths, this wine is showing surprising forwardness and complexity in its aromatics. It possesses an exuberant, flamboyant bouquet of roasted coffee, cassis, smoky oak, and soy sauce. The impressive 1996 Mouton-Rothschild offers impressive aromas of black currants, framboise, coffee, and new saddle leather. This full-bodied, ripe, rich, concentrated, superbly balanced wine is paradoxical in the sense that the aromatics suggest a far more evolved wine than the flavors reveal. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030. By the way, the 1996 blend consists of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc."-Wine Advocate
Luscious black currant flavored Cabernet fruit makes Mouton beguilingly easy to drink. Rich Complex flavors, powerful ripe tannins and an extremely long finish are all hallmarks of this wine.
"Bright ruby with a palish rim. Intense, fragrant aromas of strawberry, iris, coffee, white pepper and bay leaf are lifted by an aromatic spice note; one can recognize the cabernet franc here. Rich, dense and suave, with very pure red fruit, cedar and herb flavors that coat the palate and are nicely carried by vibrant, harmonious acidity. Finishes with outstanding length, noble tannins and a late spicy, floral kick. This outstanding Mouton has improved enormously since its release."

Last year, Audi has dropped the official details on its updated R8 family , and, much to everyone's surprise, the company has added a new top model to the line-up: a new R8 V10 Plus.
Offering an increase of 25 horsepower over a base R8 V10 version, the new R8 V10 Plus is now also available in the U.S. This is, in fact, the second Plus model offered by Audi, after the German automaker announced the TT-RS Plus at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show.
Compared to the rest of the R8 lineup , the new Plus version is distinguished by carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) additions from just about every angle of the sports car, including the front splitter, lateral air inlets, the huge rear diffuser, the lining in the engine compartment. The intense use of carbon fiber has helped drop the car's total weight to an impressive 3,461 pounds.
In addition to these features, the vent louvers next to the rear window have been painted in matte black, while the dual round exhaust tailpipe trim sections have been finished in gloss black. The new R8 V10 Plus also features LED lights that illuminate the engine compartment.
Updated 06/10/2013: This review has been updated with all of the 2014 model year details.
Hit the jump to read more about the new Audi R8 V10 Plus.
As with the previous Plus model in Audi's lineup - the TT-RS Plus - the new R8 V10 Plus is all about being lighter and more powerful. To achieve this goal, Audi used adjustable bucket seats with a glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) chassis, reduced the amount of insulating materials, fitted special light-alloy wheels and installed lightweight chassis components, like the standard ceramic brakes.
These additions join the many carbon-fiber elements of the new R8 Plus. These carbon-fiber reinforced plastic components include the front splitter, lateral air inlets and the huge rear diffuser.
Aside from the lightweight elements, the exterior has been tweaked aesthetically to include matte-black vent louvers next to the rear window and dual gloss-black round exhaust tailpipe trim sections.

|Track front/rear
|64.5/62.8 inches (1638/1595 mm)

Just like with all the other revised R8 models, the new R8 V10 Plus will get new, high-quality diamond-stitch leather seats, a new leather-covered multifunction sports steering wheels with an R8 logo.
The R8 V10 offers lots of advanced technologies, like the new Audi MMI Navigation plus system or an available Bang&Olufsen Sound System.
Interior Dimensions:
|37.7 inches (957 mm)
|41.0 inches (1041 mm)
|Shoulder room (front/rear)
|54.8 inches (1392 mm)
|Seating capacity
Under the hood of the new R8 V10 Plus, Audi has placed the same 5.2-liter engine that comes in the R8 V-10. For the Plus version, however, the V-10 delivers a total of 550 horsepower and a peak torque of 398 pound-feet at 6,500 rpm. With the S tronic transmission, the R8 V10 Plus sprints from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and up to a top speed of 196 mph, while the average fuel consumption rate is 18.23 U.S. mpg. When equipped with the manual gearbox, the new Plus version will go from 0 to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, up to a top speed of 198 mph and delivers 15.79 US mpg.
Like with all the new R8 models, the new Plus version gets a new seven-speed S tronic, which spaces the gears closely. The dual-clutch transmission can be shifted at the selector lever or at the steering wheel paddles; a sports mode is alternatively available. At the press of a button, the launch control manages to start at an increased initial engine speed and with optimal tire slip.

The new-generation 911 Turbo comes with a few improvements that make it even more impressive than ever.
The most impressive update is the turbocharged 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine with direct fuel injection that delivers a total 560 horsepower in the S version. This power is enough to sprint the Turbo S from 0 to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and up to a top speed of 197 mph.
Gallery Porsche 911 Turbo
A very young model, the new V12 Vantage S is also a pretty impressive sports car. It gets an AM28 6.0-liter V-12 engine that delivers a total of 565 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque.
While the output is basically identical to the other two competitors, Aston Martin claims that the new Vantage S can hit a top speed of 205 mph.
Gallery Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
The new R8 V10 Plus is definitely a nice addition for those looking for the extreme R8 model. It is more powerful than any other R8 model in the lineup, but it is also the most expensive one.
The question is, does it worth the price? We will get back with an answer after we will test the car.
- Lighter
- Even more power
- Looks pretty amazing
- Much more expensive
- Will only be produced as a coupe

On Wednesday, join Deena Centofanti and a Neuropsychologist from Henry Ford Health System as they discuss children's behavioral problems.
Beginning at 8:45, ask your questions in the chat room above.
According to a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, emotional and behavioral problems are among the most prevalent chronic health conditions of childhood and often have serious negative consequences for a child's academic achievement and social development.
Unfortunately children with neurological and cognitive differences are often poorly understood by educators and parents.
A neuropsychological evaluation provides the key to help parents, teachers, and physicians understand the nature of a child's difficulties.
A Neuropsychological evaluation may be needed if you suspect your child has:
· Difficulty thinking
· Problems learning
· Uncontrollable emotions
· Unusual behaviors
· Memory problems
The neuropsychological assessment and report will provide:
· A description of the child's strengths and weaknesses
· Help the parent in understanding your child
· Offer suggestions for what parents can do to help their child.
· Give recommendations for educational programming.
· Help in knowing what your child's needs may be in the future, so that you can plan appropriately.
· Give suggestions for improving your child's behavior.
· In addition, the pediatric neuropsychologist may refer you to another professional such as a clinical psychologist, neurologist or occupational, physical or speech therapist for ongoing help with your child's behavior and development.
Many children with developmental delays are not being identified as early as possible. As a result, these children must wait to get the help they need to do well in social and educational settings (for example, in school).
How does neuropsychological assessment differ from the testing provided by a clinical psychologist or school psychologist?
School assessments are usually performed to determine whether a child qualifies for special education programs or therapies to enhance school performance.
They focus on achievement and skills needed for academic success. Generally, they do not diagnose learning or behavior disorders caused by altered brain function or development.
The pediatric neuropsychologist may look at a broader range of skills, evaluating skills not usually tested by the clinical or school psychologist.
A neuropsychological assessment may include tests of the child's intelligence, academic skills, attention and concentration, learning and memory, processing speed, visual spatial perception, language skills, visual motor and fine motor skills, sensory perception, executive functioning (such as planning, organization, initiating and inhibiting behaviors) and emotional functioning.

Putney Station Clock by Newgate
Maxwell's Daily Find 06.10.13
Putney Station Clock by Newgate
• $160
• Burke Decor
I love wall clocks, but so many of them are cheesy. I saw this new (old) design at the Gift Fair last month and it popped out from all the rest. Clean, with a vintage authenticity, this oversized station clock is clearly a hybrid of a Swiss station design with a slight British influence. You can also find this clock in silver and red.
7 Comments
160 $ is way too expensive for a simple clock.
I actually love this clock dearly. I'm just waiting for the gumption to spend so much money on it. I initially saw this here as a daily find sometime last year. Yep, I've been pining over it that long.
I'm looking for a good wall clock for our kitchen. This is cool but expensive. Any suggestions for other, less expensive options?
this link has a variety of price points.
Oops: http://www.remodelista.com/posts/10-easy-pieces-simple-kitchen-clocks
But these are quality clocks. Good value for money in the long run. Newgate designed their own clocks so a lot of time/money must go into producing them. I think they are fab. :-)
Thank you, SiPo!

Dukan Diet Review (cont.)
"A once-daily multivitamin will not compensate for the nutritional goodness from fruits, whole grains and healthy fats that are inadequate in The Dukan Diet," says Keri Gans, MS, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association.
She points out the health hazards of restrictive dieting. "When dieters start losing weight rapidly, I worry they will continue the restrictive phases longer than advised -- which puts them at risk for nutrient deficiencies and kidney problems," says Gans.
Losing more than 1-2 pounds per week can promote gallstones and muscle loss, she says: "It is unhealthy to lose weight so quickly because you not only lose fat and fluids but precious muscle mass, which is really hard to replace, especially as you get older."
Constipation, bad breath, dry mouth, and fatigue should be a red flag that this is not a healthy diet, she says.
"Your body's preferred fuel to energize and keep you going is smart carbs, and when you eat a healthy diet you should feel great -- not have negative side effects," Gans says.
The Dukan Diet: Food for Thought
There is no question this very restrictive diet will lead to weight loss, if you can actually follow it. But the elimination of healthy food groups, and the unpleasant side effects, makes The Dukan Diet an unlikely choice for the long haul.
Protein is an essential part of a healthy diet, but it cannot stand alone. A truly healthy diet includes all the food groups -- vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and low-fat dairy and healthy fats along with lean protein. Your body needs the nutrients these foods provide.
Skip this fad diet. Instead, choose a calorie-controlled eating plan that you can stick with for the long term.

The Wounded Warrior Project has always focused on what wounded soldiers can do, not what they can't do. This weekend, they'll be hitting the bike paths of metro Atlanta for an exhilarating ride.Any rider will tell you there's nothing like a bike ride, but for these soldiers it goes beyond the physical. For retired Army veteran J. D. Greer, it felt good to get back on a bike."Most of the people in the military, we've always been athletic. And then that stops for a short period of time while we recover from our injuries," said Greer.Greer had his arm amputated below the elbow. An adapter allows Greer to connect himself to the bike, allowing him to ride."Any bike for any person. It doesn't matter if they're missing a leg or missing a hand, post-traumatic stress disorder, whatever the case may be," said Dan Schnock of Soldier Ride.Greer and dozens of other veterans are participating in Soldier Ride. It's a unique four-day cycling opportunity for wounded warriors to use cycling to overcome physical, mental, or emotional wounds."You get a chance when these warriors are out here, together a group of 50, they lower their defenses, they get a chance to talk to each other and they can tell stories and understand those stories," said Schnock.They will ride 10 miles in Stone Mountain on one day, and 26 miles the next. "They get to see the nature, be a part of the culture, but also engage each other. And that to me is the best part, while they're doing a bit of physical fitness," Schnock said.But for veterans, the ride helps body and mind."It helps out a lot for self-esteem, confidence and keeping yourself healthy, so you have a good quality of life," Greer said.Soldier rides have already taken place in Washington DC, Miami, Chicago and New York.

Hi Dee, I cant make it tonight but it would be great to get some notes on your presentation if possible - thanks Cullen
Great to meet you too Dee. I'm so glad I finally managed to make it to a WP MeetUp. See you at the next one.

Are there any Kanye West fans in the tri-state area?
Kanye West is headlining two performances in Atlantic City New Jersey at the Revel Resort! Beyoncé just held a concert in the NEW Ovation Hall, and left the crowd in awe.
We are so excited to catch Kanye in New Jersey!
