Beach Ride
When me and my family went to Warnambool for Easter, my sister and I went on a hour and a half beach trial ride! IT WAS SOOOOOOOOO GOOOOD! I loved it! I rode a horse called Tess. She was a chestnut, who stood at 15.2hh and she bucked once and kicked once. It was so good, cause we rode western (kinda) and cantered heaps! There was lots of hills and we rode in the water!!!!!!!!! We also went up this really steep hill, poor Tess. It was one of the best rides I've been on!
Any others of ya's been on a beach trial ride?
yerrrrp. I go there every month to work the show ponies and Hacks in the sand, to work on there muscel tone.... Good Fun.
Nope we're about 1000 miles from the nearest ocean :( We go to our local lake but they don't allow horses in the swimming area. It sounds like fun though.
i always wondered if the deep sand was a problem, riding along the beach.do the horses sink down at all?
Wow I would hate that. In 06 i was living with my boyfriend across the road from the beach. It was a smelly beach near the city.But It was nice seeing the ocean every morning. Though i Just love the water :P
I always thought it would be awesome rinding at the beach tho..

I've never ridden on the beach before. :(
I'd love to someday, though! Yeah, I go to the Atlantic City beach once in awhile, but I don't even think they allow horses.
I've only been to the beach once in my life, and i've never ridden on the beach... I'd like to though... I've heard that it's really fun.
I live about 50 miles from the beaches of North carolina so we used to go to the beaches all the time to ride...that is till all them thar "city slickers' started complaining about the horse "droppings on the beach. We have also had several storms that ruined the sand dunes at the beach so now they are trying to re-establish the dunes and the authorities won't allow horses or vehicles on the beaches in our area. The sand can be brutal on a horse that is not intip top shape.

Women are dying unnecessarily. In Kenya, 75% of the population is rural, often hundreds of miles from the nearest hospital. More than half of mothers deliver their babies at home and women here have a 1 in 38 lifetime risk of dying from maternal causes; an estimated 2,500 mothers will die each year due to excessive bleeding after childbirth alone. The greatest tragedy is that these deaths are largely preventable if only existing technology and medicines where made available to women.
Our project brings life-saving generic tablets to rural women for management of excessive bleeding after childbirth and emergency post abortion care. We bring products to people through applied research, training, distribution and policy development.
We address a persistent gap in service delivery at the village level with a focus on reducing barriers to access and enhancing human capacity to improve health. When a mother's life is saved, her child, family and entire community benefit.
This project has provided additional documentation in a PDF file (projdoc.pdf).

Anti-hate chalk messages have replaced pro-Trump graffiti
'Choose compassion', 'Stop hate' and 'Stand against hatred' have been chalked around campus
Yesterday's pro-Trump graffiti has been replaced with anti-hate messages of positivity.
While some of the previous chalking remains intact, a number have been replaced with messages of love and support.
President James Wagner had sent an email this morning to the Emory Community, encouraging conversation and debate while also maintaining "respect, civility, and inclusion" for a "safe environment."
Early this evening, a joint statement was sent by Emory's Student Government Association (SGA) and College Council (CC) regarding the chalking incident.
The email echoes President Wagner's emphasis on fostering an environment, "where the open expression of ideas and open, vigorous debate and speech are valued, promoted, and encouraged," while steering completely away from any form of discrimination.
It is unclear as to who or how many people are responsible.
Yesterdays pro-Trump chalk graffiti has created a lot of discussion around freedom of speech and a safe campus environment.
Several students are reported to have been upset by Tuesday's Trump graffiti.
The concerns by the student body were more so regarding the values and xenophobic messages the political candidate advocates than the candidate himself.
SGA and CC have also made themselves available to anyone who may have been triggered by the series of events that have taken place. Both organizations have office hours at these times:
Thursday 3:30 – 5:00 PM (College Council Office in Eagles Landing)
Thursday 10:00 – 11:00 AM (SGA Office in Eagles Landing)

Amazon in Talks with Entertainment Studios in Bid for TV Streaming Service
The idea is to offer users a new online pay-TV option delivered through its Prime Instant Video service. It's a move that would allow Amazon to cash in on the customers who dropped their cable or satellite service, which is an increasingly popular trend with so many streaming options available (Netflix, Hulu Plus, and the list goes on). Likewise, this would give media companies a way to once again generate revenue from former cable and satellite customers.
Citing "people familiar with the matter," The Wall Street Journal says Amazon has brought up the topic with at least three big media companies, though the online retailer issued a statement to the contrary.
"We continue to build selection for Prime Instant Video and create original shows at Amazon studios, but we are not planning to license television channels or offer a pay-TV service," Amazon told WSJ.
Nevertheless, WSJ reports that not only have talks taken place, but that Amazon is also developing a set-top box to stream video, somewhat similar to the Roku player. If all this is true, one reason for Amazon's statement is that without a deal in place -- and there are no pending deals at this early stage -- no plans would exist, either. Media companies have been tough to crack in terms of licensing for streaming over the web, and Amazon may be reluctant to say anything that might put pressure on its potential licensing partners.

Maison Casero, Fort Kochi: Wonderful Homestay
Staying at Maison Casero gave me and Keith a real understanding of everyday life in Kerala. This lovely home is well located in a quiet street in the residencial area in the heart of Fort Kochi. It's an easy short walk to the promenade and the chinese fishing nets. We especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony surrounded by tropical trees, and was nice seeing the children walking by on their way to school and hearing the calls of the fish sellers, etc. as they rode their bikes along the narrow streets. Breakfasts were a real treat.. and a super introduction to keralan home-cooked food and all delicious. Jaison and Priya and girls are such proud and loving and friendly people and made our trip very memorable. We were humbled and honoured to be guests at Tereena and Pramod's wedding. We had the most wonderful day .. and send our warmest congratulations and wish Tereena and Pramod a long and happy life together.

Spice Garden Homestay, Wayanad: "Good Service and personal Touch" - Wayanad Trip
Spice garden Homestay at Wayanad Dt., Kerala was recommended to us by a close friend who had really liked the place. For us, it was a first time that we were planning for a home stay. My stay at the Spice Garden Homestay was one to remember. The owners made us feel right at home and made sure that we had everything we needed. The natural beauty of Wayanad with the affectionate and caring hospitality of Mr. Santhosh and his team deserves a true accolade. If I return to Waynad, I would certainly want to stay here again. And also recommend this beautiful home to all my friends

Jasmine Palace, Kovalam: Good.clean and friendly
We booked the Jasmine for 3 nights as we were not sure of our itinary, after the 3 nights we went to another resort 60 miles away for 4 days, on our return to Kovalam we decided to check into the Jasmine again as it had been clean, friendly and relatively cheap. The hotel had a swimming pool and a restuarant, 1or 2 evenings a week entertainment was put on for a small fee and dinner included. I would definately reccomend the Jasmine and it has a good name locally. The staff were nice and helpfull even when we arrived at 5am in the morning nothing was a problem.
The pool was a treat, although the hotel is near the beach On the first day and in between for relaxing with a book was enjoyed. Also the on site restuarant was good and was handy for breakfast.

Cherai Beach Resort: Cherai Beach Resort-
Its a peaceful little place, so not too touristy. Its got a beach which is almost a private beach. In the evenings you may have locals taking a walk or sometimes has a local fare etc. Beach is quite clean. Service in the resort is a little slow, so don't wait till you get really hungry to go the restaurant. You can get rooms/cottages facing the backwater but may have to do prior booking. The place also has an auyrvedic massage center which is pretty okay if you dont mind the oily massages.
This place has some cottages that have a bathroom extending into the backwater. Which means you can take a dip into the backwater, but its not that clean so ....

Tamarinnd Residency: Alleppey one of the best homestay
Hi November/ December is the peakseason. The rate of houseboats will be more. That is over 25% rate hike on this seasons. More over from this September the rate of hosueboats is increased. Also the availablity of houseboats on this season is very low. I recommend you to contact Tamarinnd Residency Alleppey for more details. They arranged me houseboat on last week. That rate was ok.
The rooms are very big and spacisous. There are two openspace inside the house which can access from bedroom. There are two kitchens. We prepared food there by ourselves. The food service is also there. But choose to cook by ourselves. That was a great experience. The most is the co-operation of the people in this homestay, They are very friendly. I was very happy with them. They arrange houseboats for a cheaper than than other offered. This place is neat and clean. We feel this place like our own home. I recommend Tamarinnd Residency for bed and breakfast. I give 95 out of 100 for this homestay. I was very satisfied.

Fort House Hotel: Ayurvedic Spa
The Fort House Hotel has started a ayurvedic center under the technical guidance of the Nagarjuna ayurvedic group.I must also mention that the Nagarjuna group is the most reputed health care group of Kerala. I think the doctor is there at the hotel continuously. The pleasant ambience of the hotel and their delicious vegetarian meals can only compliment a rejuvenation or cleansing treatment.I think it would be a great idea to combine the treatment with a relaxing holiday in Fort Cochin!!

LAKE PALACE HOTEL: In the midst of the BACKWATERS
On the second leg of trip to Kerala we had decided to be amongst the much talked about backwaters of Kerala. We were suggested to go to the LAKE PALACE HOTEL, which is located in Allepey about 80 kilometres from the Cochin airport. If I had to mention, this was the only negative part - getting from the airport till the hotel.

After a long drive of around 3 hours we had to get to the Punnamada boat jetty and then have short ride on the lake before getting to the hotel. It was dark when we got there in the evening hence could not appreciate what we were much wanting to see. After getting to the hotel and checking in to a very comfortable cottage with two rooms, we just had dinner and went to sleep.

The next morning we were up eagerly wanting to check out what this magical place had in store for us. We were surrounded by the backwaters. Located in the green environment of the Vembanadu Lake and almost next door to the spot where the Nehru Trophy Boat Race ends, the Lake Palace Hotel represents the perfect combination of tradition and modernity.

At this hotel you can find Kerala Cottages, uniquely ethnic in their designs which seem to blend with the natural surroundings. Each cottage has a large bedroom with a mini bar, television and 24-hour room service. The bathrooms are well equipped. To top it all, each of the cottages open out to offer views of the Vembanadu Lake.

Besides the Kerala Cottages, there are the Lake View Cottages with their large balconies and luxurious interiors. The king-size bedrooms of the cottages face the lake and each room is equipped with a mini bar, TV set and good bathrooms.

The swimming pool of the hotel is a marvel of engineering because it is located in the three-acre lake itself complete with sun decks and pool side service. The Lake Palace has a multicuisine restaurant offering a variety of Indian, Continental and Chinese dishes and, of course, fresh seafood apart from cultural programmes etc.,

THE LEELA KEMPINSKI: Kovalam beach hotel
The Leela Kempinski was our choice to spend part of the holidays in Gods own country Kerala, in Kovalam. The nearest airport is that of Trivandrum (Thivananthapuram) which is situated just 13 kilometers from this property. We were picked up by a vehicle of this hotel and after a warm welcome, once in the vehicle we were given a music menu, which was the first time that it happened to me. We selected Indian instrumental music (click here to listen -http://www.theleela.com/) which was a good choice to enjoy the magnificent views of the coast combined with the lush greenery of the countryside till our hotel.
The hotel itself is situated inside a huge campus filled with fantastic gardens and nice balconies with breathtaking views to the Arabian Sea and the famous Kovalam coastline and beaches. This 5 star resort is a holidaymaker's haven designed to the finest international standards. It houses elegant indoor and open air terrace dining with an array of superlative restaurants and lounge. The hotel offers ayurveda massages which are typical and a speciality of Kerala.
The rooms are huge and very comfortable offering the best amenities one could expect. The buffets for all the meals were excellent with a very big variety of local and international cuisine. Service by the staff is second to none and in general a great experience.

Who's The New Mayor? Go Fish! Spangle Candidates Finish Recount In Dead Heat, Draw Cards To Pick A Winner
John Logan is the new mayor of Spangle by the luck of the draw.
Just barely.
"It was just neck and neck, all the way to the end," said Logan, a hearing aid fitting specialist.
He was tied with farming consultant Joe Coombs at 64 votes apiece last month when Spokane County tallied its last ballots.
That meant a recount, by hand, of Spangle's 132 ballots from the Nov. 7 election. Four residents didn't punch their ballots for the mayor's race. Maybe they thought their vote didn't matter.
After Wednesday's recount, Logan and Coombs were still tied for the $50-a-month job.
County elections staff asked both candidates to come to the courthouse to break the tie.
Logan had appointments, so he asked neighbor Chuck Layton to stand in.
County Auditor Bill Donahue had a box with five straws with different lengths. The county used that method some years back to break an electoral tie.
Coombs suggested they draw cards, and produced a new, sealed deck. Layton said that was fine. The deck was spread on a table and the men took turns drawing three cards to get the best hand.
"My stomach was turning, all the way," Layton said later.
They handed their cards to Donahue. Coombs had a Queen, a Jack and a 4.
Logan had a Queen, a Jack…
… And a 5. He won by what may be the narrowest margin in county election history.
Logan said it was fitting his neighbor was there to draw the cards.
It was Layton who first suggested Logan run for mayor a year ago.

Slain in the Spirit
I have a confession to make that may set me somewhat apart from my Anglican orthodox bretheren. I do not have a "charismatic" bone in my body. I am not a cessationist although many Calvinists are cessationists and I would certainly do my best to become one if I thought the position had greater biblical merit. At the same time I know and love many charismatics, all rock-solid theologically orthodox believers. And, objectively speaking, I appreciate the spiritual strength and vigor of those who call themselves charismatic. My aversion comes partly from a particularly bad memory from my youth in an Episcopal Church during the heyday of the charismatic movement.
My dad was just beginning to dabble in Christianity. He is an attorney, skilled, honest, honorable, and, personality wise, a very serious and dignified man. His approach to the faith was intellectual: Does this system have any philosophical merit, is it reasonable to be a Christian? My dad would probably not have described himself as a Christian at the time but, even so, he believed that it was important for my sister and me to go to church so he made sure to be there with us every Sunday and even served for a short stint on the vestry.
At around the time that my dad's interest was growing, one of the various Episcopalian charismatic revivalist movements seems to have passed through town (my memory is somewhat vague at this point since I was young). A "bible study/prayer-group" was formed at my church in the aftermath and they invited my dad to attend. Probably hoping for more of a bible study than prayer group, he did.
It turned out not to be a bible study at all but a "care and share" group. I don't know the full story but apparently when he walked through the door one of the other men present wrapped my dignified and, at this point, horrified father in a great big bear hug. My dad does not do hugs with other men very well…I don't either just in case we happen to meet sometime. The meeting went from bad to worse. Speaking in tongues, crying, more hugging etc…and no bible study.
Things at the church got a little weird at that point too. Strange music, tambourines, more hugs. One Sunday morning after church services I'm told that one of the "spirit-filled" parishioners tried to "slay" the genteel, matronly, parish matriarch in the Spirit. Too gracious to offend, the matriarch, embarrassed, played along, fell backwards into her chair and pretended to be slain.
My dad stopped caring about Christianity.
He was still there every Sunday but his heart was not. Worse, he'd decided that Christianity was not worth his intellectual muscle. That is where he remains. He is pleased that I am doing what I am doing and, naturally conservative, he is appalled at the Episcopal Church, but he seems to have dismissed the faith to which I have devoted my life.
And, interestingly, All Saints, the parish of my youth, the place where the charismatic renewal took place has now become one of the most liberal churches in West Texas. Last time I visited, they'd constructed a labyrinth, invited Buddhist drummers to facilitate labyrinth walk meditations, built a small round baptistry-chapel right off the main parish hall with a somewhat "revised" icon of the "Christos Pantokrater" prominently displayed—with symbols of the other major religions surrounding the representation of Jesus, and the rector had idols of Hindu gods and goddesses decorating his office.
The lasting effect of the charismatic movement, at least at All Saints, seems to have been a definitive wresting from traditional moorings and an obsessive focus on and search for mystical experience. The effect on my dad was to turn him away from Christianity altogether.
This is not to say that my dad's experience with the Charismatic movement or the outcome of that movement at All Saints Corpus Christi is normative or in any way representative of the charismatic movement as a whole. As I noted above, the charismatic Anglicans I know are orthodox to the core.
But there does seem, and this is from the outside looking in, to be something of a discernment problem within charismatic/pentecostal circles. Two recent examples come to mind.
The first is Todd Bentley. If you've not heard of Tod Bentley, then you are fortunate. Here is his website. I first heard of Pastor Bentley from an Anglican charismatic who was very excited about the new "movement the Spirit" in Florida; the next great "revival." One look at this man's website and a short google search told me that Pastor Bentley was pretty whacked out. But my solid orthodox Anglican friend, a man of some learning, was completely taken with the man.
In early August, Pastor Bentley's board of directors announced (see the August 12th entry on Bentley's website linked above) that he and his wife were separating because of some "friction" in their marriage.
It is with considerable sadness then, that we must temper the jubilation we know you all feel with the sobering news that Todd and Shonnah Bentley are presently experiencing significant friction in their relationship and are currently separated.
On August 15th, the ministry released this statement:
We wish to acknowledge, however, that since our last statement from the Fresh Fire Board of Directors, we have discovered new information revealing that Todd Bentley has entered into an unhealthy relationship on an emotional level with a female member of his staff. In light of this new information and in consultation with his leaders and advisors, Todd Bentley has agreed to step down from his position on the Board of Directors and to refrain from all public ministry for a season to receive counsel in his personal life.
You might be tempted to think that Pastor Bentley's days of revival are over. Don't worry. I'm sure he will be back. I'm willing to bet that before Christmas, "the Spirit" will tell him that it is time for him to return to public ministry.
Perhaps even more disastrous than the fall of Pastor Bentley, is the sad tale of the two lives of pentecostal pastor, Michael Guglielmucci, the now disgraced leader of the Australian "Planetshakers" ministry. Michael Guglielmucci composed and performed the hit Christian song, "healer" about his battle with terminal cancer.
Christians around the world prayed for his healing, sent money to his ministry, listened to his sermons, spent money on his CD.
The problem? He made it all up. There was no cancer. It was all a lie. He apparently devised his cancer diagnosis in order to cover up a growing addiction to pornography.
The people who sent Guglielmucci money and the people who made "pilgrimages" to Florida for Bentley's new "revival" sincerely believed in the legitimacy of these ministries. Why?
And how can Anglicans, of all people, buy into people like Todd Bentley?
These episodes are not unique. Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, Robert Tilton, Jim Baker, make me wonder whether in fact there may be some deeper lesson for Anglicans in the fall of All Saints Corpus Christi. Those who were around during the charismatic revival in the Episcopal Church (from 1961 to around the late 80's) tell me that the "care and share" groups that formed in many parishes sought solely to "experience God" with only a tangential reference to scripture, to hear God's voice and feel his presence in a context marked by biblical illiteracy. Perhaps the renewal that swept through the Episcopal Church, to the extent that it took place apart from a renewed interest in or zeal for the scriptures, moved the Episcopal Church toward her present state of theological vapidity?
Of course there where places where Charismatic renewal was wedded to solid biblical instruction. At Truro, for example, the scriptures obviously retained their central place in the life of the parish.
But the focus of many charismatic/pentecostal revivals and ministries, and I am speaking generally here, seems to be the various "manifestations of the Spirit"—healings, people being "slain in the Spirit", tongues, "prophesies", the interpretation of dreams, "gold dust," barking, "holy laughter" and…well, it gets worse. And all of it comes with a sort of anti-intellectualism that eschews doctrine, biblical exposition, and tradition.
The Episcopalian version of revival was no doubt far more subdued, but it was widespread and so I wonder whether it might have had a similar focus and, perhaps, a similar anti-intellectual/anti-expositional/anti-doctrinal result? This rather sympathetic article written in 2000 by D. William Faupel for Pneuma Magazine seems to confirm that possibility:
The Charismatic Movement in the Episcopal Church is indeed a force that must be recognized. However, it is not sufficient simply to celebrate or to lament this reality. The thoughtful person, whether adherent or critic, must ask such questions as: What does this mean? Is it of God? How can it be used as a constructive force for the advancement of God's kingdom and the enrichment of Christ's Church?
From the beginning, the movement has seen itself as having a two-fold focus: first, bringing renewal to individuals, local churches and entire denominations; and second, bringing about the unity of a divided Christendom. The leadership has tended to disclaim any specifically theological purpose. Rather, it claims to be a renewal of experience, not of doctrine, often observing "theology divides, experience unites."
Faupel goes on to point out that as the movement progressed the leadership became increasingly conscious of the need to ground charismatic experience in traditional Anglican categories. But by that time many parishes across the country had already experienced "renewal".
It could be that the charismatic movement hit the Episcopal Church at just the wrong time. Perhaps, had it not come during the heyday of Tillich, demythologization, and cultural decadence, a time when "relevance" meant shallow 10 minute story-time sermons about lilies and politics, the charismatic renewal might have forestalled the present ecclesial dissolution. But it started in the sixties and lasted well into the eighties and for that reason, I fear, many parishes that were not already well grounded in scripture might chart their doctrinal decline to the first parish-wide charismatic retreat weekend.
Please don't get me wrong. There are charismatics in my congregation who speak in tongues (quietly) and exercise, with my blessing, the ministry of healing prayer. I love them. And, of course, this is not to say that the charismatic movement is unique in its partial dysfunction. The so called "three streams" of orthodox Anglicanism: Evangelical, Catholic, and Charismatic are said to compliment one another. Evangelicals can be rigid and judgmental. Catholics can be frozen ritualists. Charismatics can be experience obsessed. Put them together and you have a bunch of rigidly obsessed ritualists.
We need each other I suppose.

I like well grounded people who have a great sense of equinimity and who have the maturity and wisdom to know that life isn't about what you can take from the world but what you can bring to it, and that it is better to seek to understand than to be understood.
You are capable of critical thinking, unbiased objectivity, rational discourse and independent thought without the undue influence of popular culture or mainstream mass media.
If you describe yourself as good-natured, fair, equitable, try to choose your words wisely, intellectually honest, scientifically literate, and have the emotional intelligence to appreciate the efforts of others made on your behalf.
FREELOADING HYPOCRITICAL WOMEN WHO WANT TO BE TREATED EQUAL BUT THINK THEY ARE ENTITLED AND DON'T PAY THEIR OWN WAY NEED NOT APPLY. If you want to be "taken care of" try the local charity, welfare office or emergency room.

In reaching their assessment that Osama bin Laden is probably still in the mountains of Afghanistan near Tora Bora, American commanders are relying on high-tech surveillance equipment, but also on surmise and on reports from local Afghan fighters who are helping in the fight against his forces there.
''Obviously we use all sorts of technical means to gain insights into where he may be,'' said Gen. Tommy R. Franks, the commander of American forces in the region.
He was referring to such methods as listening to Al Qaeda's radio communications, but also to surveillance flights by drones and other aircraft with high-resolution cameras and night vision equipment.
''We also listen to what these opposition leaders on the ground have to say, because they each have their own intelligence capability,'' he added. The Pentagon's belief that this area may be Mr. bin Laden's hiding place is also based in part on the fierceness of Al Qaeda's defense of the area.
''They're fighting as if they're protecting something very important,'' said one senior military officer. The area is one long used by Mr. bin Laden, whose fighters know the protective caves and the escape routes into Pakistan.
Although prisoners have been taken, they are still in the hands of America's Afghan allies, General Franks said.
Many documents have been seized, but it will take time to translate them and glean any intelligence they may offer, he said.
Afghan troops with Hazarat Ali of the Eastern Shura, the council that took over from the Taliban there, have reported sightings of Mr. bin Laden, his convoy and some of his hard-core fighters.
Finally, American officials have gleaned other snippets of intelligence suggesting that Mr. bin Laden remains holed up in a steadily shrinking region south of Tora Bora. For instance, the United States has intercepted radio communications among Al Qaeda operatives talking about Mr. bin Laden's general whereabouts.
''No single one of these things would be enough, but put all three together and you pay close attention,'' said one senior military officer.
General Franks declined to predict when Mr. bin Laden might be caught -- dead or alive. He said the campaign near Tora Bora had made ''steady progress up to this point -- steady progress.'' But he added that the fighting was ''very dangerous work.''
''And we have a lot left to do,'' he said.Continue reading the main story

Based on the acclaimed French thriller "La Femme Nikita", "Nikita" – now in it's second season – ollows the story of a troublemaking teenager forced into the violent world of life as an assassin.
Maggie Q ("Mission Impossible 3") stars as the series' heroine, a killer gone rogue against Division, the secret government agency responsible for her training and subsequent employment. Not only does Q bring with her a dojo of martial arts abilities and spectacular performance skills, but she has a rare credibility not often seen from small-screen action heroes.
Shane West ("A Walk to Remember") co-stars as Michael, a Division operative and Nikita's former mentor in what is a roller-coaster first season. I really enjoyed this.
An outstanding barrage of extras here; there's commentaries, numerous documentaries, a game, a gag reel, deleted scenes, and interviews.

We are pleased to announce that Thinking Integral Group was chosen to present at INNOVATE 2014 - The IBM Technical Summit on June 5, 2014. We will run a special session
"Integral Agile: Addressing the Human Issues In Regard to Full-Scale Deployment Automation."
In businesses of all sizes, communication is a vital factor in achieving success on every level. Communication barriers persist throughout the business world amongst employees and in conjunction with potential customers and clientele, by cause of basic concepts such as tone of voice, body language and simple misunderstandings. Accumulation of conflicts in a workplace result in damaging consequences which consume and deplete a business both internally and externally. Join this session to learn how many organizations have created an open, collaborative culture, particularly when adopting tools that change the working life of employees, and the benefits they have realized from doing so.

Patrick Popp Signature Sakura
GeneralYo vs. ILYY – Sparkling Blue Entheos
We did a special run of GeneralYo's latest product – the Entheos.
There are nine in total. They will be up for sale soon (where is tba).
The finish is our lovely Candodize with a special sparkle. They come sILYYconed with GeneralYo replacement pads, axle and ILYY button and sticker.
The hound is loose…
We finished the Greyhound a while back and they're available now at our retailers.
Double V!
Our first low price yoyo was the Void. It was a huge success and we decided to further expand our line of lower priced throws by two – Valve and Verve.
Both feature a similar shape and guts, however they come in two differenz sizes.
The Valve being the full size entry at nice 54mm diameter.
And the Verve being the smaller brother at 50mm diameter.
In comparison with the Void:
Valve is planned for mid November, Verve in December.
Number 2WEI!
They're almost done! They feature our new Pearl 2.0 finish. In fact, its a special kind of hard anodizing which has some certain qualities to it. Quote: maximum resistance to abrasion, greatest possible sleekness, maximum hardness/toughness, much increased chemical resistance. According to the anodizing shop this particular coating surpasses similar coatings by competators up to 30% regarding the quality of the coating features.
About 65 will head to retailers by the end of next week. If you are interested in one, go and get yours as soon as they drop. This is the first and the last batch of 2WEI due to a lack of demand. Also, this will our last yoyo with CandyBlast Pearl topping. Prices for this coating went through the roof, so it's double rare. Get ready!
They will be available at these retailers:
La Tienda Del YoYo, YoYoZ, YoYoExpert, High Speed YoYo, YoYoStore Rewind
Agile Italia, Gyroscope, Slusny, YoYoGalaxy, Shariki Za Roliki
Chroma Void
We took our last remaining 2010 Voids and applied a new coating on them – Chroma. Those are limited to 10 pieces! Get them at YoYoExpert.
Special Void
We are so pleased with how the 2011 Void turned out, we want to celebrate its greatness with a special edition! This SE Void comes in a beautiful black Candodize coating with a lasered artwort by the great Clayton V. and an exclusive Graou "black metal" string. So much win in a single package! Only 26 of these were made. Available soon at selected retailers.
Saint Eel 2011 done!
Final 2011 Eels will be finished and shipped to selected retailers next week. These feature a slightly satined finish to further improve grinding abilities. Also, we made room for a 2mm longer axle which provides stability and strength.
2WEI PreProduction run #2
Our second preproduction run of the 2WEI is done and heading to YoYoExpert. The purple colour on these came out a little lighter than expected, that's why they will drop at a discount price!

I am still trying to get my head wrapped around the amazing and thought-provoking conversations from "Edubloggercon" fondly known as the un-conference. It's a day where passionate educators, who love learning, technology, and being challenged gather in small groups to address the questions and issues that keep us all moving forward.
The morning began with a conversation around one of my favorite hot topics: critical reading and thinking; specifically centering around what Howard Rheingold refers to as "Crap Detection 101".
Colette did a wonderful job of facilitating the conversation around the following questions:
- How do we make sense of information we are surrounded by?
- How do we determine importance, organize, and share it with one another in meaningful ways?
- How do we teach kids to do the same? What are the most essential lessons to teach?
- how we help students and one another wade through the volumes of information in effective, efficient, and meaningful ways. It's a topic I feel have strong feelings about.
I made the point that we can and must be considering these questions in every classroom and at every grade level; with and without technology present. Believing that critical thinking is a way of thinking, a habit of both mind and behavior not a curriculum unit with a set of masterful skills, I added my two cents saying:
"Great readers ALWAYS read with the writer in mind & great writers ALWAYS write with/the reader in mind!
Do we model that? If not, we can change that without fancy tools or complicated curriculum. Add to the reading/writing conversations the following questions, and see what happens!
When we interact with another's message-ALWAYS wonder…
- What is being said?
- Who is sharing the message?
- Why is it worthy of my attention? (Does it fit my purpose as a reader, viewer, listener?
The dialogue was powerful with wise words from:
- David Warlick: "Teachers need to say, "according to this source, they say this" on a daily basis. Sources of Authority such as textbooks are often not accurate, and teachers need to point this out!
- Judy O'Connell: Teaching research should also involve giving students experiences where they are immersed in investigation.
- Joyce Valenza suggested "Mashpedia" as a starting place for research.
Edina did a GREAT job of summarizing the conversation and the resources here.
And what I really love, is that it was only the beginning. Inspiring posts like Ed Tech Steve's. On his blog he reflects:
I feel the whole issue revolves around trust. My question is – at what point do we begin to trust a source? And if we trust the source, do we need to constantly question it? Or do the questions change? By trust I mean not that the source is "correct" or factual necessarily- by trust I mean I consistently find value in that source's information, whether it's a person, a site, a newspaper, a chat- trust lies in the value it brings to me, not it's correctness or even if it agrees with my own views.
He goes on to offer even more advice for us our personal and professional "crap detection" process. What matters most:
- Authenticity. I don't like fake people or those that put on different shows for different people. If they are telling people what they want to hear and changing their story for different audiences, I've got no faith in them
- Connected to classroom realities. This is important to me. I want sources that have walked the walk and haven't forgotten what it's like to try to affect change at the local level
- Practical. I enjoy real, grounded ideas and thoughts. Something that can be used. I don't like those that get hung up on semantics. Yes, words are important, but action is more important than debate. There is a place for the more theoretical aspects, but their point should be to inform action. Those that argue/debate just for the sake of doing so are not advancing the cause.
How do you address this topic in your learning? In your school or classroom? Have you had the conversation yet?

1. #5: Corals Are Fluorescent
You thought corals were pretty? Seen through the right filters they have a fluorescent glow. Researchers captured this fluorescent image with special camera filters in Fiji. The glowing green parts of the coral polyps are reactive zones where the coral is competing with other organisms.
2. #4: There are Coral Wars
Think coral reefs are peaceful seascapes? Forget it, many corals are engaged in long term warfare This is a coral fight! Montipora (left) battling Porites (right) for space on the reef. Space and access to sunlight are always in high demand - when 2 corals compete for the same space, they often sting each other with small stinging cells (called nematocysts) and send out mesenterial filaments and mucous. Montipora looks like it's winning so far, but only time will tell…
3. #3 Some Coral Polyps Live Alone
So you think you understand. Corals are big structures made up of millions of tiny polyps. Wrong again. Some coral polyps don't stack up. This Cynarina lacrymalis is only a single polyp and very rare, but it's extremely distinctive and very beautiful.
4. #2: Some Corals Move All Day Long
When you think of coral, you probably think of a hard, jagged reef waiting to impale an unfortunate surfer. Well think again. Corals are actually colonies of tiny creatures called polyps. There are species of soft corals like this Xenia and Heteroxenia spp. that have their millions of tiny mouths pulsating all day to snag food.
5. #1: Corals Have Growth Bands Like Trees
Ever count the rings on a tree stump to find out how old it is? Well, turns out you can do that with corals too. You just need scuba gear, a pneumatic drill and specialized packing equipment that will keep a core sample alive until it can be put into a CT scanner that will visualize the bands.
The coral the scientists pictured here from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) are studying grows at about 1 - 2 cm per year. That means a growth three meters long could be nearly 300 years old.

This review is from: PC Power & Cooling ModXStream Pro Series 700 Watt 80+ Semi-Modular Active PFC Performance Grade ATX PC Power Supply (OCZ700MXSP)
Pros: Modular, which is handy. Stable output with plenty of amps on the 12 volt rails. Three-year warranty (luckily), because I ended up needing to make use of it.
Cons: Failed within 2.7 years. MTBF rating is greater than 100,000 hours, yet three years of running non-stop, day and night, would total a mere 26,280 hours.
Other Thoughts: I would rate my overall experience, particularly with OCZ support getting me a replacement in a timely, hassle-free manner (in December, no less) FIVE STARS. However, given the steep price of this and other similarly rated units, there's absolutely no reason not to expect it to last at least 10 years. I don't do anything crazy with my systems; everything runs stock and they're all well protected, ventilated and maintained. I have a pair of really old desktops with (A brand no longer carried by newegg) 450W PSUs ($40 ea. when new), and they're still functional after nearly 12 years.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ASUS VW224U Black 22" 2ms(GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor w/ HDCP Support 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR 5000:1) Built in Speakers
Pros: Low price. Sufficient warranty period. Was able to eventually get the picture looking reasonably close to what I wanted. Two millisecond pixel response, depending...
Cons: As most others have stated, OSD menu button layout isn't intuitive and button label visibility is practically nonexistent. If either one of these was rectified, the other wouldn't matter. I'm used to ASUS motherboard manuals often being cryptic, poorly written/translated, missing information, etc. However, I expected much better documentation to accompany a monitor. For example, I am left to assume that the Overdrive function must have something to do with pixel response time, as there is no mention of it either in the manual or on ASUS' web page for this model. I shouldn't have to resort to using a search engine to find out what any features of a simple monitor I've bought brand new mean. What's more, the settings for "Overdrive" are 0-100 in increments of 20, and mean absolutely nothing without some sort of reference.
Other Thoughts: I was in a hurry with this purchase, saw the 600+ 5-egg average review scores, and just bought the thing. I'm not extremely disappointed with it, documentation aside, but I think I'll be going back to Viewsonic next time. Aside from that, I really hope that when it's time to buy another monitor some truly significant improvements have been made with flat panels in the $150-$200 range. It's certainly been a very long time coming. Compared to CRTs, I still see no real advantages other than weight, and quite a few disadvantages.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: MSI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) DirectX 11 N460GTX CYCLONE 1GD5/OC 1GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Had a problem with missing accessories when first received. After contacting MSI, they sent everything that was missing (adpaters, CD, manual, etc.) within a few weeks. It's taken me a while to update feedback as I've been very busy.
I am very pleased with this card's performance. It went in a new build: AMD PhenomII x4 965, Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3, 8GB G-SKILL Ripjaws PC3 10666, Lian-Li PC-K7 black aluminum case, Win7 x64. The whole system is dead quiet compared to my previous, which was so old I won't even mention details. Much cooler also. This card's 90mm fan, because of its enormity, moves plenty of air without making much noise at all. Gaming performance has been superb thus far, and when the fan speed increases to adjust for load, only a miniscule whine is heard. Card size was not an issue in such a voluminous case.
Cons: None so far. Seems a little pricey, but it runs everything I've tried perfectly smooth. I've payed $100 more for that kind of performance from a video card in the past, so actually I have to conclude that it's a solid deal for the money.
Other Thoughts: Not a fan of Win7 x64. The PC should remain very nearly 100% backward compatible (excluding DOS, but VM/emulation is possible there). I believe MS could certainly deliver that if they really wanted to. Time to dual-boot again...READ FULL REVIEW
