The humble cigarette has gone through so many stages of metamorphosis ever since the first cigarette was lit up, with the advances in science came new additions like a filter to keep out the nasty tar, and more importantly the ability to regulate the nicotine content of a cigarette. The flip side of all those advances meant that the many carcinogenic chemicals that form a part of the cigarette came to light, too sparking an intense and in depth study into the effects of cigarette smoke on the human body. It is that research which has brought about the awareness and regulations that surround tobacco use. It was at this juncture that the e-cigarette came to light and ever since its first market day, it has been hailed as the savior of the cigarette.
It proposed to offer all the pleasures of smoking, but, with none of the side effects or complications. That set in motion a series of events on a global scale which resulted in the advent of many companies that market the electronic cigarette and a quite a few tweaks on the whole have given rise to the fact that, now, you have the privilege of choosing from a wide variety of flavors to puff on.
Likewise, this crowd-sourced and demand-fueled industry has brought newer innovations to light, like the Hookah Pen. The main impetus behind the success of the e-cigarette in its various avatars, is not attributed to its myriad flavors or its cool factor, but the ground reality that once hooked on to tobacco, it's really hard to kick the habit. So, many people have fallen back on the e-cigarette as a substitute to its conventional cousin. This increased popularity has brought up many questions regarding the safety and advantage of the e-cigarette over traditional ones.
It remains to be seen whether the e-cigarette and Electronic Hookah have more benefits in the long run, but till then, enjoy a smoke free, tar free and odor free puff!!

Welcome to My Client Success Stories!
Want To See Your Business Success Story On This Page?
I've been working with Coach Erin in one-on-one coaching and I've also been a part of her Sparks Mastermind. Erin provides so much value, starting with the very first session. She has helped me work through some major business mind-blocks, set up effective systems for working with my clients and plan out how I'm going to reach some big goals I have (along with countless other things we've worked through together!).
It was a huge step for me to hire a coach because I was afraid that I'd have to work WAY outside my comfort zone and move faster than I was prepared to at the time. Instead, Erin helped me identify where I was in my business so I could build from there—on my own terms. There's no "formula" for success and while the big-name business courses might work for some, I knew I needed some one-on-one TLC to move me and my business forward. That's exactly what I got. Erin pushed me outside my comfort zone and I had my highest gross income year yet—both in my business and when I was working a J.O.B. full time. Less than two weeks into this year, I'm well on my way to meeting this year's goals.
I really appreciate having the Sparks group there in between coaching sessions. Sparks is different than most groups. It's a small, intimate, safe place I can go to get feedback and support from like-minded business owners. Erin and Sparks have both helped me immeasurably.
I can't thank Erin enough. It was a huge step for me to hire a coach, but I am so thankful I did! I 100% truly believe that I'd be back in the classroom teaching if I hadn't come to Coach Erin! Or, I'd be miserable working 70 hours a week. Or both!
Hiring a coach was THE thing that turned my business around. Oh, and working my butt off too, of course. But Erin was the catalyst to get me on the right track. I've grown so much personally and professionally since that initial investment and it just keeps getting better!

I'd rate my BYOB experience a 5 out of 5. I met the goals I wanted to meet. My confidence increased tenfold. I increased my income earning potential, expanded my understanding of business, and now have a solid foundation for my business. I carry myself differently and even talk to people about my business differently. I also believe I can actually have a sustainable, long term business now that I have built a solid foundation.
While I had been serving a few clients, I really didn't have a "business" before working with Coach Erin. I now actually HAVE a business. I have a business name, mission, vision, pricing, packages and package descriptions.
I went into coaching with zero foundation, minimal confidence and a laundry list of unbridled ideas. I have emerged a solid, confident, and focused small business owner.
Erin helped me see how much value I provide and how much of an expert I truly am. I was afraid to go out in the world and ask people to pay me what I'm worth and now my fears are greatly reduced.
It wasn't all about my business either. While I went into coaching working on my business, I ended up working a lot on myself. After all, my business is a direct reflection of who I am as a person. I am eternally grateful for the personal development side of coaching. From a personal stance, I feel like I have already had a huge ROI; the money I make in my business will just be gravy. Honestly, I would say the personal growth was probably the most valuable part of the program.
Working with Erin is like working with a really good friend who is super business-savvy and isn't afraid to tell you like it is. She calls you out on your stuff. She takes ideas and manifests them in ways that I could never have done. Her coaching style is organic and unencumbered but structured enough to keep you focused and on point.
It's refreshing to have someone that really, truly cares and wants the best for you. Erin really cares about your success and wants the best results for you, personally, and for your business. Honestly, I think any woman starting a new business should work with Erin. I know the accelerated growth I experienced over such a short period of time will pay dividend upon dividend in the future.

My Clarity Creator session with Coach Erin was extremely valuable and surpassed my expectations. It was pragmatic and felt tailored just to me. I gained immediate value even before my coaching began and I walked out with so much clarity. Erin offered me guidance in creating a path towards success. I was able to better articulate my services and the clients I want to work with. I also got clear on the steps toward providing those services to my clients.
Jodi Peary
Cave Creek, Arizona
I truly feel that I gained more value than what my coaching program cost. My program was filled with deep dive, laughs and real work on both my self and my business.
Coach Erin listens intently to what you are meaning instead of just the words you're saying. She picks up on little cues that most people miss. It's amazing the insights she's gotten from seemingly small things.
When working with Erin, you feel very paid attention to and important. She holds your hand while kicking you in the pants. She challenges you while supporting you. And she'll call you on your own BS.
Alicia Fields

Oh, goodness. I've learned so much, and I'm only 6 weeks into the BYOB program.
Having never done coaching before, I didn't have a lot of preconceived notions and was just happy to see how things turned out. I'm a business novice, so all of the business set-up, marketing, pricing, etc. is completely new territory to me. It's been great to have Erin here to walk me through the process of envisioning and creating my business. Her relaxed, fun, and very competent coaching style is something I really appreciate.
Before starting my BYOB program with Coach Erin, I felt my business was pretty nebulous. I had talked about good ideas, but I didn't have a solid conception of how things would actually happen. It's exciting to feel like the business is starting to really take shape now.
There has been lots of mental work involved in the coaching and assignments, and it has been HUGE for me. There really has been a personal discovery around every corner. It's also exciting to see a great deal of progress coming along in the design of my business. I'm stretching in so many ways; it can be intense, but it's all very good.
The homework has been fun and challenging. The creative assignments have been especially enjoyable for me. The organizational assignments have been more challenging because they aren't as fun for me individually, but they have been extremely valuable. The Expertise Catalog, although it wasn't the most pleasurable assignment for me to complete, really and truly changed how I thought about myself and the value of my skills. The Client Rate Finder assignment was extremely thought-provoking and is causing me to think very differently now about how I will be earning income in my business. The Dream Budget exercise shifted the entire long-term vision for the business to include not only myself but my husband and potentially even our kids someday. I'm now not just building MY business, but I'm building our FAMILY business.
It's fun to share my coaching experience and activities with my hubby. It's exciting to know he is now going to be actively joining in the business. He is supportive of the things I am doing and has been pleased with the coaching and assignments. (He even joined Erin and I on one of our coaching calls.)
My BYOB experience has been great. It is really helping me be ready to spread my new business wings. I'm very excited to see what amazing things the rest of the program will bring!

Before starting the BYOB program with Coach Erin, I felt burnt out about the whole process of getting my business off the ground. Like many of us, I had a ton of ideas floating around in my head, but hadn't gotten them out and into the world.
After the BYOB program, I have much less anxiety about what my business "should be." Coaching is the perfect combination of exploration, reflection, and practical implementation. Working with Coach Erin is like working with a friend, a colleague, a cheerleader, a professional organizer, and a business coach all at once. Her coaching style is intuitive, casual, and down to earth. She is full of practical, yet outside of the box ideas!
Coaching with Erin validated that my wants don't have to look like everyone else's. I am free to want something different for my life and that of my family. My business has a solid structure and can grow and change as my life grows and changes. Coach Erin has helped me to see that I can make my business fit me, not the other way around. With that skill alone, I know that I will always be able to make my business work.

Coach Erin has helped me, but also a number of my clients, to clarify the path to take our businesses and also make more money. She's extremely creative and helps you to feel creative too. She's action-oriented and driven by results which I love. She has such a fabulous balance between these two traits and it makes her an amazing coach. Erin's positive and upbeat but also honest and candid when she needs to be. Coach Erin truly wants to see her clients succeed and helps them to do so.
Erin, I am so grateful to you. I love my business & what I do everyday but the busier I got, the more stressed I felt. You really helped me to transform my services in a way that satisfies the needs of my clients while balancing what I needed too! The change brought about MORE TIME and LESS STRESS – which was the goal entirely! I look ahead at my calendar and I'm excited to finally have the energy, time and mental capacity to work on all the projects I've wanted to accomplish this past year but kept getting pulled away. I have a sense of pride in my business that I had started to lose without even realizing it. How do I even begin to say thank you for what you've given me? It seems impossible. THANK YOU!"

Coming into my coaching session with Erin I had not worked with a coach before so, I honestly didn't really know what to expect. It was much more thought provoking then I thought it would be. It wasn't Coach Erin telling me what to do but more of her getting me thinking.
Coaching really gets you out of your head. It puts ideas & thoughts you've been thinking into a "real" concept. You stop pushing things aside that you thought "I can't do that" or "not now." Erin does a great job of saying "you got this" without it feeling like a fake cheerleader-ish thing, she is very genuine. My session really gave me something to build on.
One of the reasons I have avoided coaches is because I felt like coaches were there to tell me I was doing a good job or just to kick my ass. I really saw coaching as one type of coach is the cheerleader who says "yay" at whatever you think you're going to do and the other type of coach tells you exactly how to do everything in their process or patented program. My coaching experience with Erin was neither of these.
Coach Erin gave me a sense of ownership. She was there to guide the idea or concept, but I was the one actually doing the work. Erin leaves you feeling like you have ownership over it. This way when things work I get the gratification instead of feeling like "Oh yeah, I followed someone else's steps and feel like I know I can follow steps well." With Coach Erin I did it myself. I have the ownership over the idea and the results.
Coaching was money well spent and of great value. I can totally get my financial investment back in 90 days. I can also see where over the next 12 months I will continue to generate a much higher profit with the concepts Coach Erin and I worked on.

I gained so much direction from each of my B.Y.O.B coaching sessions with Erin. The more direction and clarity I gained, the further I was able to expand my business and my own personal skills.
My business is a lot more organized, automated and clear. I've learned so much and now feel truly ready for clients. I became more knowledgeable on business ownership, marketing platforms, and setting realistic expectations. I find it easier to make decisions now. And I'm much more confident.
It's been really emotional building a business. Having a go-to person weekly to work with helped me stay on course and continue to move forward. Erin kept me accountable to getting things done! It was nice to know I had someone to talk to. Someone who understood the journey and had resources each step of the way.
Without my B.Y.O.B coaching program I'd like still be struggling with clarity, having proper systems in place and not developing my own creativity. It was great to develop unique programs and activities to move my clients forward. I would never have thought to offer these programs; I was only prepared to offer the services I learned with my certification training. I'm now confident in my own creativity. This was the most valuable piece of the program as it flows into multiple areas of my business.
I really appreciated that the B.Y.O.B was well organized and clear. It was great to have a communication log where I could talk with Erin anytime. Plus, the Sparks Community and the additional resources were awesome.
I appreciate that Erin was very thorough. She has a great process for helping you clarity what you want to accomplish and how to best represent your business. She's knowledgeable in business, marketing, automating business tasks and extremely creative. Oh and she's not afraid to be direct with you when something just doesn't fit well. But, at the same time she respects your decisions. It's 100% your business and your decisions.
The B.Y.O.B program was challenging, inspiring and pushed me out of my comfort zone.
Sarah Gill - Phoenix, Arizona
Soul Therapist in Phoenix, Arizona
In just our first 2 coaching sessions, Coach Erin has provided me with a framework and a clarified sequence for building a business out of what I thought was just an idea. She also provided me with honest feedback and insights into what my best steps are. Erin's organization of how to build a business is clear, concise and value driven.
It amazes me how quickly Erin was able to read me and really know me. When she gave me a suggestion for my business name I knew immediately it was right. Her suggestion has allowed me to be free and not closed in, she really opened things up for me in a way I never thought of.
It has been so powerful to have someone who gets me, sees what I want and has the ability to take that, give it structure and the right avenue to achieve my mission while generating a profit. Coach Erin has not only allowed me to put into words what I have always felt but she has also brought it to life through my own authentic brand.
Paulette Bergounous

Several months ago, I was feeling overwhelmed with running what I thought were two different businesses. I had separate social media accounts and blogs for each and even two different business cards. I felt disjointed and confused and knew that I needed an outsider's perspective to get me unstuck.
I had heard good things about Coach Erin from few trusted friends so I attended her event in February. The exercises we did combined with her keen insights and upbeat personality convinced me that I needed to add Erin to my team. I came to our session hoping for some guidance and a new direction but what I got was that and so much more.
Erin helped me figured out why I felt the need to combine the two things I was doing into one cohesive package. She also worked with me to get to the heart of what I actually do for the people I've already worked with successfully. She helped me get a bird's eye view of what I offer and a new way to talk about it with other people. The best word to describe what I got out of the session was "clarity."
I knew what I loved to do and who I loved to work with—but she gave me a new framework for it, which was incredibly valuable. Not long after, I taught a class and—based on what Erin and I had talked about—presented the "what I do" portion of the talk for the first time using the new framework of being an "Image and Influence Consultant." As a result, I booked two consultations and they both fit my ideal client profile!
I also updated some of my marketing copy and have started working on an editorial calendar and product offerings based on what Erin and I came up with and I can hardly wait to implement them! Already, I'm attracting the right people and doing more of the work I truly love.
For people like me who live in their own head, it's critical to get an outside perspective sometimes to stay on track and Erin is a genius at that. I already scheduled another coaching session for this week and look forward to gaining even more focus and continuing to build on my new business framework.
Thanks, Erin, for helping me keep the momentum going in my business!

VETERAN'S NEWS From the Internet
VETERAN'S NEWS From the Internet
by Bob Kinsler, SSG (ret), US Army, DAV, VFW Dept. of Oklahoma, Publicity Team Member
I had the occasion to look over my transition from the US Army, when I retired back in 1991 and what is occurring now with all the help a veteran can obtain and wonder why we have so many gripes and complaints around this area about what veterans can obtain.
When I transition from the US Army I came to Southeastern Oklahoma with visions that any and all employers wanted to employ me due to all the training in Human Resource, Leadership and Management I obtained in the military. Head strong I ran into a challenge when I found out that while I was an expert in the Military style of Human Resource management, employers and their Human Resource Departments did not use the same system. They wanted people with experience after obtaining college degrees in Human Resources and then where certified via one of the certification agencies.
Then again, since I was not born here, I was a fish out of water when it came to networking. Something I knew about while in the military (heck that is how NCOs got things done while leading their subordinates and networking with their peers). I had a few people that became friends (still are for the most part) thanks to my spouse who lived here prior to going into the US Navy.
I tried a few places of employment (McDonalds on the Turnpike and EZ-Go) and found out that if I wanted to get into something with more responsibility and higher wage, I needed to go to college and obtain a degree in business (or something similar). Having a technical degree in Law Enforcement (Associate of Science) I knew I need to go to school and obtained rehab program via the Veterans Administration.
I obtained a degree in Accounting, although I was better in the marketing, management and business law side of business. Then with that head strong idea that with my previous experience and training received in the military I could obtain a position above the entry level most college graduates where getting (if they could find them at all). I, also on my own, obtained an internship working with a start-up business processing rabbit meat.
I know most of you are getting turned off right now reading this (boring, right) but here is the turnaround part. Had I known that I was eligible to become a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars (yes, we have a couple in Southeastern Oklahoma) I would have join years ago, instead of waiting until 2013.
While the VFW states they do more for veterans, the best part is a network of veterans who, through their own experience had networks that a fellow veteran could obtain employment possibilities. I know we have had challenges with some employers who really do not like the veteran, those that do list their openings on the VFW VetJobs listing. A search of that listing provided 2578 positions open in Oklahoma.
Even with that the Post, District and Department (state) parts of the VFW also have members who know someone within the companies, corporations or government that can mentor young fellow VFW members and put in the good word to their employers about the possibility that you would be a good fit.
On the VFW Website, they even have Military Skills Translator and a list of positions needing those skills. Resume counseling, and American Job Centers. Veterans are entitled to free priority employment services at nearly 2,500 American Job Centers nationwide. American Job Centers can help you look for work and offer workshops like resume and cover letter writing. Many states offer business services to help employers hire, retain and train workers. Use the locator below to find a center near you!
There is one in Idabel, one in Durant, one in McAlester, (normally refer to Workforce Oklahoma) and on the Texas side, one in Paris, Denison, and Sherman (worked there myself).
Of course, this means you, the veteran, actually wants a position and want to work to support you and yours. These centers also can provide you with the skills you need to get hired and help the firm, company, corporation find value in keeping you employed.
As I noted before, I did not know when I transitioned from the military I could obtain these services (then again, back in 1991 the internet was just becoming something to use in this manner).
So here are the lessons learned part – I know most post within Oklahoma have a Service Officer which are there to help out with filling out paperwork to obtain VA healthcare and disability compensation. Here is Southeastern Oklahoma we rely on the Oklahoma Department of Veterans Affairs. Claims and Benefits Representatives (Lisa Mussett is our representative) to use their software which takes your documentation and request, sending them straight into VA for processing. Which means those Post Service Officers can be used to obtain the other VA benefits for employment using the VFW website.
So, if you are a just transitioned veteran, or a veteran who is looking for employment why not go down to your local VFW Post and asked to see the Post Service Officer, use them to obtain those benefits to obtained the educational, skills and a good job (position) so you can support you and yours now and in the future.
Then check and see if you qualify to join the VFW and obtain that network we all need to better ourselves and those we support by helping the VFW go forward.
By the way, if you want to complain about Veterans wants and needs On Monday, Markwayne Mullins is holding a telephone town hall to talk with you about issues that matter. If you have a question for me or if you're just interested in hearing my thoughts on issues in the news today, I encourage you to call-in. Hope you'll join us!

These photos made me think a lot. I've wanted to photograph someone covered in mud for a while, just because I thought it would make an interesting shoot. I don't normally post shots of guys with hard ons on this blog but the guy with the beard obviously likes the feeling of the mud on his body or maybe the other guy applied it for him and that's what he enjoyed.
I've heard that clay can draw all the toxins out of your skin and leave you feeling soft and smooth. Wouldn't it be cool to do this. They look like they are having a blast.

By now, everyone who is in anyway concerned about what is happening to Christians in Iraq has heard the horrific news.
The madman who claims to be a descendant of Mohammed, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi – who in his delusion and grandiosity has taken to calling himself Caliph Ibrahim – issued an ultimatum this past Saturday.
Those who are Christians in that part of the former territory of Iraq and Syria which he now claims as an Islamic Caliphate must convert to Islam, face the sword, flee the country or have all their property seized and pay the tax levied against dhimmis, or non-muslims.
Trending: Does Supreme Court Need Term Limits?
In other words, they will become indentured servants, living under the boot of a violent Islamist regime.They will lose their freedom.
At first, Christians were ordered to gather in a central place where they would receive the directive from the self appointed Caliph. Understandably, given the track record of this maniacal tyrant, few did so. So, the text of the statement was issued as a formal declaration to all Christians:
"We offer them three choices: Islam; the dhimma contract – involving payment of Jizya; if they refuse this they will have nothing but the sword." It was broadcast from loudspeakers. It was placed on the internet. The Christians had until midday Saturday to comply.
Christian homes in the City are now marked for seizure by the Islamist extremists who follow this self-proclaimed Caliph. Even though Christians have been in this ancient territory since the first century of Christianity, they are being forced to leave.
The violations of human rights, international law and justice are evident to all. Christian tradition traces the planting of the Gospel to the missionary efforts of the Apostle Thomas with the assistance of Thaddeus or Jude. Christians have an undeniable claim to live freely on this land which precedes the very arrival of Islam.
So, the mass exodus of Christians is now being reported on many news sources. Perhaps the world is finally waking up. I have my doubts. The reports are only on those news sources who care about this evil. Sadly, not many Americans seem to be paying attention at all.
The Obama Administration does not seem to be all that concerned. Except for some poorly delivered statements, it is business as usual for an administration seeking to radically restructure the United States into something which resembles the worst social experiment in some time.
ISIS Jihadi thugs have already taken an axe to the tomb of Jonah, destroying it with a kind of gleeful and mad abandon. They ripped down the Cross from St. Ephrem's Cathedral and replaced it with their dreaded black flag.
Fortunately, the Holy See, Church leaders and even the leadership of the United Nations are speaking out strongly. Vatican Radio issued the following statement on Tuesday, July 22, 2014:
Pope Francis has reassured the Patriarch of the Syriac Catholic Church Ignatius Youssef III Younan that he is following news out of Iraq with concern, particularly the dramatic situation of Christians in Mosul who have been threatened with death and seizure of their homes by Islamic militants demanding they leave or convert to their form of Islamic belief.
Christians have lived in Iraq's second largest city for nearly two thousand years; there are few, if any, left now in Mosul.
The Patriarch told the Italian Catholic news agency SIR (Religious Information Service), that Pope Francis called him Sunday 20 July to express his solidarity with Iraqi Christians.
During the 9 minute phone call, the Patriarch thanked the Pope and asked him to intensify his efforts to engage world leaders, putting them face to face with the facts on the ground: that in the province of Nineveh a massive religious "cleansing" campaign is underway to rid the region of those who do not share the beliefs of the new occupiers.
At the end of the call, Pope Francis bestowed his Apostolic Blessing upon all the eastern Christians with the assurance that he "will always keep them in his prayers for peace and security."
At his traditional Angelus blessing also on Sunday, the Pope offered prayers for Iraqi Christians who "are persecuted, chased away, forced to leave their houses without the possibility of taking anything with them" and called for dialogue to resolve armed conflicts.
Just recently, Patriarch Younan had denounced an arson attack by Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) militants on the Episcopal headquarters of the Syriac-Catholic Church in Mosul.
We must wake up to what is actually going on. These Christians being forced from their home are our brethren! We are joined to them. We have an obligation to stand with them.
I have written numerous articles seeking to call attention to our persecuted Christian brethren in Iraq. Their plight has grown worse since the U.S. intervention on March 19, 2003.
Before the intervention on March 19, 2003, I disturbed some colleagues and friends by publicly opposing intervention in what came to be called Iraq II.
I supported the first intervention in Iraq, after the Kuwaitis requested our assistance against an unjust aggressor named Saddam Hussein.
However, in light of the teaching of the Catholic Church, and based upon my own efforts to inform my conscience by it, I opposed the Second Iraq War. I even contributed a chapter to a book dedicated to such opposition.
I concluded back then that the decision to engage in what was called a pre-emptive war with Iraq failed to meet the conditions, commonly referred to as the Just War theory, summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (�2309):
…the damage inflicted by the aggressor on the nation or community of nations must be lasting, grave, and certain; all other means of putting an end to it must have been shown to be impractical or ineffective; there must be serious prospects of success; the use of arms must not produce evils and disorders graver than the evil to be eliminated.
The power of modern means of destruction weighs very heavily in evaluating this condition.These are the traditional elements enumerated in what is called the "just war" doctrine. The evaluation of these conditions for moral legitimacy belongs to the prudential judgment of those who have responsibility for the common good.
I determined that the very notion of a pre-emptive war was antithetical to this analysis. The determination as to whether any war can be justified is rooted in the broader understanding of self-defense.
I was not then, and am not now, convinced that the entry of the United States into Iraq on March 19, 2003 was a legitimate response to the horror unleashed against our nation on September 11, 2001.
In spite of what some sincere Catholics – whom I respected – sought to say back then, the leaders of the Catholic Church were overwhelming in their unified opposition to beginning the Second Iraq war. They were unanimous in their conviction that no attack was imminent, and, as a result, war was far from justifiable.
Deep reservations were raised by numerous Bishops' Councils; then Cardinal Ratzinger, Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith; Cardinal Sodano, Vatican Secretary of State; Cardinal Martino, President of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace; and most ardently by now Saint John Paul II, the Holy Father back then, who clearly stated that not only was war a human failure but that specific war was unjustified.
After the intervention, as time progressed, my opposition became moot.
The war had become such a debacle and the brave men and women of our heroic Armed Forces deserved our unflagging support. Those who initially supported the second Iraq war and those who opposed it, agreed that we could not abandon the Iraqi people in their great hour of need. The Holy See expressed its continuing concern for the people of Iraq after the intervention.
Since the U.S. troops were rather hastily withdrawn from Iraq, the wisdom of our entire enterprise has been debated and will continue to be debated. If lessons can be learned, they should be learned. However, the current crisis in Iraq today requires a fresh analysis, in light of the situation being faced on the ground in July of 2014.
We need to pray for an end to the evil assault upon Christians, and all of the other innocent people being persecuted by these Islamist thugs who have gathered under the banner of ISIS. In particular, we who bear the name Christian need to pray for the Christians of Iraq.
They are our brothers and sisters in Christ and we are joined in a special way to them in a band of solidarity which finds its roots in our common Baptism.
We need to pray for the leaders of the United States – and leaders of all of the other Nations – who are evaluating how to respond to the current situation in Iraq. Action is required. We cannot sit idly by while a new form of religious genocide unfolds.

All things change. You can't go back to the past. I remember visiting a school where I spent my first three years of learning. How many of us have done that? There were many good, and some bad, memories I'd left behind.
It was a lot smaller than I remembered, but I'd grown up by then. I wondered if any of the nuns were still alive and what had happened to my old school friends. They were no longer there. It was a different place. Now there were fences where there hadn't been. The wide street with the park in the middle, where we often played, had turned into a major road to handle the ever-increasing traffic volume.
On my last trip back to Australia I visited the street where I'd lived. When we first moved in it was a quiet, friendly neighborhood where just about everyone knew each other. For years my mother enjoyed good fellowship with the other ladies. By the time I left for America, it had radically changed. All the ladies had passed away. They were replaced by neighbors who were too busy to get to know each other. Family homes were demolished for apartments and there were far more cars traveling down the street.
Everything had changed and moved on. So had I.
One of my favorite Narnian Chronicles books by C. S. Lewis is The Magician's Nephew. There's a scene where the young protagonist Digory is confronted by the Witch Jadis in a Garden. He had been instructed by the Lion Aslan (a Christ figure) to visit this mysterious garden, pluck an apple and bring it to him. Aslan would use this apple to grow a special Tree in order to protect the newly-created land of Narnia from the evil which had been inadvertently brought in by Digory.
The Garden was surrounded by a high fence with the following inscription on the gate:
Come in by the gold gates or none at all,Take of my fruit for others or forbear,For those who steal or those who climb my wall,Shall find their heart's desire and find despair.
As it turns out, the Witch had jumped over the gates to steal an apple, which she ate. The apple granted her immortality. Digory saw that she looked, "stronger and prouder than ever, and even, in a way, triumphant; but her face was deadly white..."
Jadis tempted Digory to eat one of the apples to attain immortality and rule with her. The boy, knowing that this was really Aslan's Garden, and heeding the injunction on the gates, refused to eat. So the Witch changed tactics - she suggested to Digory that he should at least take an apple for his ailing mother. Surely he couldn't be so heartless as to not care about her!
Digory responded that he'd rather not live on as an immortal while watching everyone he loved die. He'd rather live his time, die, and go to Heaven. Besides that, he told the Witch, his mother wouldn't approve of not keeping promises and of lying. She'd tell him it wouldn't be the right thing to do. Finally, it was when Jadis suggested that no one need know, and he could use his magic ring to leave his friend Jill behind in Narnia, that settled things for Digory.
When Digory returned to Aslan he was told that a stolen apple would have healed his mother. However:
"The day would have come when both you and she would have looked back and said that it would have been better to die in that illness."
"The day would have come when both you and she would have looked back and said that it would have been better to die in that illness."
Of the Witch he said:
"Things always work according to their nature. She has won her heart's desire; she has unwearying strength and endless days like a goddess. But the length of days with an evil heart is only the length of misery and already she begins to know it. All get what they want; they do not always like it."
"Things always work according to their nature. She has won her heart's desire; she has unwearying strength and endless days like a goddess. But the length of days with an evil heart is only the length of misery and already she begins to know it. All get what they want; they do not always like it."
Obviously Lewis' narrative echoes elements of creation and the Garden of Eden. We could note many parallels. When sin entered into the world, Adam and Eve were driven from the Garden so that they wouldn't eat of the Tree of Life and live forever in their sinful state (Gen 3:22-24). Such a state would have kept them from fellowship with God and Heaven.
Humans are still seeking immortality in one way or another. Science is trying to oblige. Yet while science seeks to bring immortality to humanity, it cannot save a dying world. It can't save man from sin, which it generally denies. Nor can it bring humanity into a relationship with the Creator God, which it often also denies.
Even if I were to take some New Pill produced by the magic of science, I would still have to confront a world with a dying sun in an indifferent universe. Just like Jadis who fled her dying world of Charn - I'd have to somehow find a way to a new world with a newer sun, and eventually move on again before that sun expired.
I was saddened to hear of the passing of self-help-spiritual guru Wayne Dyer this past week. He was a confused man who inadvertently deceived his readers. When Oprah Winfrey once asked him for his definition of "god", he replied: "God is the highest place within each and every one of us - it's our divine self." Yet when he wanted to rid himself of leukemia he sought help from a "spiritual healer." His god failed him.
We aren't gods. The lie Jadis told Digory is the same lie the devil told Adam and Eve. It is also the same lie Dyer believed.
One of my favorite scenes in the Narnian Chronicles occurs at the end of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Aslan tells the girl Lucy and her brother Edmund that they cannot visit Narnia again. They were too old now and had to live out their lives in their own world.
Lucy tearfully objected, "It isn't Narnia, you know. It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you."
Aslan responded that he could also be found in their world. But he was known by another name there, and they must learn to know him by that name. Of course Lewis was pointing his readers to Jesus Christ. How sad then that atheist Phillip Pullman despised Lewis' Narnian stories so much that he wrote His Dark Materials to counter them.
Unfortunately, this rebellious world doesn't want to know about sin or Jesus Christ as lord. It wants to save itself from death and a host of other things, but it is doomed to ultimately fail (Matthew 16:26). It rejects the notion that immortality without Christ means everlasting hell.
On the other hand we find some inexpressibly glorious promises in Romans chapter 8.
Because we've put our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, we become Children of God. Not only are we God's children but joint heirs with Christ.
Joint heirs! Think about it!
No suffering we experience now can compare to the glory which shall be revealed in us. Paul tells us that even creation will eventually be delivered along with the redemption of our bodies. Revelation chapters 21 and 22 promise a new Heaven and new Earth where we dwell in eternal fellowship with God and our loved ones. There will be no more death or sin. Moreover, we'll be like Christ because we'll see Him as He really is (1 John 3:2).
I'm looking forward to Heaven. Are you?

Workouts for Beginners
Many people set goals to increase their physical activity in the new year. With so few Americans meeting the recommended amount of physical activity, this is a great lifestyle change to make. And it's never too late to get more active to feel better, have more energy, and live healthier. However, you don't want to make the mistake of jumping in too fast. You'll likely feel sore and it increases the risk of injury. You're more likely to stick with it by starting with shorter workouts and building up how long, how often, and how hard you exercise over time. Here are some workout plans for beginners to help you get started.

There are three awards: Distinction, High Distinction, and Highest Distinction in Mathematics. All mathematics majors (prime or second majors) are eligible for these awards. In practice, second majors will probably only choose to work toward Distinction in Mathematics, since the High and Highest Distinction awards require an honors thesis in mathematics.
If a student in Arts & Sciences earns High or Highest Distinction in Mathematics and meets the College's Requirements for Latin Honors, the Department will recommend that Latin Honors be attached to the student's degree. Students in other divisions (such as Business or Engineering) should check with the undergraduate office in their division about requirements for Latin Honors. Additional information about Latin Honors.
Of course, every major must complete the courses required for one of the major tracks. However, courses used to fulfill major track requirements can also count toward the coursework requirements listed below.
Coursework Core
Every level of Distinction Award requires that a student start by fulfilling the Coursework Core. This Core, by itself, earns no award.
a) at least 3.65 GPA over all upper level mathematics (L24) courses, and
b) completion with grades of B or better (not B-) of
i) one of the course sequences 4111-4121, 429-430, 493-494, 449-450, and
ii) three additional 400-500 level regularly scheduled mathematics courses. For this requirement, "regularly scheduled mathematics course" means an L24 course that is home-based in the Mathematics Department and is not an independent study. L24 courses that are not home-based are those crosslisted from other departments; these usually have course numbers ending with a C. For example, such as L24 501C is identical with L31 Physics 501 and is not home-based in the Mathematics Department.
Note: courses transferred to W.U. or courses taken abroad in a mathematics or statistics department as part of a W.U. approved overseas study program will count toward the mathematics courses required, provided they are transferred to W.U. as 400-level mathematics courses and the transcript indicates a level of performance comparable to a "B" or better at Washington University. However, because grades for such courses never appear on the WU record, the grades for such courses will not be included in calculations for the GPA requirements.
Distinction in Mathematics
Awarded for Coursework Core plus
a) completion of one additional regularly scheduled mathematics course at the 400-500 level with grade at least B (not B-), or
b) passing the first actuarial exam (P) from Society of Actuaries. The exam must be taken early enough so that we can get official notification of a passing score in time to certify award recipients. For May graduates, the certification happens at the end of March.
High Distinction in Mathematics
Awarded for Coursework Core plus satisfactory completion of an honors thesis.
Highest Distinction in Mathematics
Awarded to students who earn High Distinction and whose
a) coursework includes completion of at least one of the graduate level sequences 5021-5022, 5031-5032, 5041-5042 (or 5043), 5051-5052, 5061-5062 and passing the graduate qualifing exam for that course sequence**, or
b) coursework includes all the requirements for the Honors Program in Statistics with grades of B or better (not B-) in all required 400-level courses
(**) if it happens that graduate qualifying exams have not been evaluated before the College requires submission of distinction awards, then the recommendation of the qualifying course instructor will be followed instead.

As Kansas City Streetcar ridership plunged six straight months into January, supporters claimed one thing would bring back more riders: warmer weather.
They were right.
February's passenger count hit 125,935, officials announced Thursday. It was the second lowest monthly figure for the service that started last May 6, but still far over the low point of 89,660 in January. The biggest days for the streetcar in February occurred during spring-like temperatures over a few weekends, when travel is higher anyway.
The good news comes just in time, as streetcar proponents get ready to promote a big expansion of the 2.2-mile downtown line.
Here are many of the details about the exciting proposal to add about 3.75 miles of rail. It would stretch south from the current ending at Union Station along Main Street through midtown, near Westport and the Country Club Plaza, ending around the University of Missouri-Kansas City campus.
The project is expected to cost $227 million. However, it won't be completed until 2022 — and that's if things go well.
First things first: Starting early next month, residents within the proposed transportation development district can request ballots to vote on actually forming a new transportation development district. A separate vote would be needed later this year and early in 2018 to pass a higher sales tax and property tax assessments to help finance the expansion.
Here's a map of the proposed district. And here's the complete timetable.
Streetcar officials also are counting on up to $100 million in federal funding for construction costs — something that could be imperiled by the presidency of Donald Trump.
Mayor Sly James and others contend with good reasons that the streetcar line has helped spur at least some redevelopment downtown.
If the expansion is approved, a dramatic retail and residential resurgence could spread all through midtown neighborhoods, up and down the Main Street spine on several blocks east and west.
The streetcar has become a key cog in revitalizing the urban core. The next needed step is to approve an expansion that can keep that revival revving along.

Submerged aquatic and leaf litter form habitats for several slime mold species: Tesmer & Schnittler, 2009
May 22, 2009
Journal: Fungal Ecology
Location: Northeastern Germany
12 protostelid (microscopic slime mold) species were found in 15 samples of aquatic and terrestrial litter taken from northeast German ponds, 90% of species (including all of the most common) being found in both types of litter. Terrestrial litter contained more protostelids (14% of cultures) than aquatic litter (12%), and the water column contained none.

Managed forests important for red-list bryophytes and lichens: Gustaffson et al., 2004
March 20, 2009
Journal: Basic and Applied Ecology
Location: Boreal Sweden
In 30 managed forests (180ha in total) in boreal Sweden surveyed before harvest, 33 red list bryophyte and lichen species (35% of all red list species that have been observed in that part of Sweden) were found, ranging from 5 to 16 species per stand (10 on average), or 6 per hectare. This is more frequent than in designated hot-spot areas. 51% of species were growing on dead trees, and 48% on live. Mature managed forests may be important habitats for red list bryophyte and lichen species.

: cost 1d3 Sanity + 6 MP plus 1 MP per each additional minute. Calms a spirit and entices it to answer questions. Forcing the spirit to answer a questions that the spirit does not want to answer requires a POW resistance check – if the spirit wins, the spell ends; in either case, the spirit will be angered and not want to answer any more questions – thus requiring another check for each subsequent question.
: cost 8 MP + 1d6 Sanity. The target's lungs fill with sea water, causing drowning. The caster must be able to see the target. Target must succeed on opposed POW checks, each failure costs the target 1d8 HP. The spell ends when the target succeeds 1d6 POW checks.
: cost varies (MP + sanity). Calls the Outer Goddess Shub-Niggurath to a consecrated stone altar. The altar is consecrated by bathing the stone in blood, to the amount of 200 SIZ or more. Each call of the dark goddess requires fresh blood. (pg 223 – core book).
: cost 1d3 Sanity + 4 MP; duration 5 minutes. Creates a 5' radius circle of distorted light around the caster that helps to conceal any within from view. It in no way muffles sound, and is useless to conceal anything but slow movement.
: cost 4 MP + 1d3 Sanity. Mentally transports the caster to Carcosa and summons The King in Yellow. It does not in any way make the King friendly toward the caster, and therefore could result in terrible consequences.
: 5 MP + 3 minutes of meditation. Allows the caster to enter a dream-like state, temporarily ignoring all sanity loss penalties. The caster enters a dream-like trance: the world seems unreal, and objects appear cloudy and ill-defined. While in this state, the effects of all sanity loss are deferred. The trance lasts until the caster chooses to dismiss it, or becomes unconscious (including sleep) and awakens. Upon cessation of the trance, all accumulated sanity loss is suffered as a single blow to the subject's psyche.
: cost (see description). Causes a character to suffer an increasing sense of dread and despair that slowly builds over the course of several days. The caster must obtain a single hair from the victim, and then engage them in direct eye contact while holding the hair and expend 4 MP. If the victim fails a POW resistance check, they suffer 1 despair point and the spell can continue. If the victim succeeds, the hair becomes useless. Upon success, the caster must begin the ritual within 12 hours and repeat every 24 hours (repeat earlier does not increase the spell's efficiency, but later dispels the spell). The ritual costs 4 MP and involves sitting in a quiet place, holding and staring at the hair, and chanting the incantation repeatedly for a minimum of 5 minutes. If interrupted, the caster can attempt the ritual again, provided it is within the required time period. Each day the victim must roll a (POW – Despair) resistance check; on failure they suffer 1d3 additional Despair points. As the victim's (POW – Despair) dips decreases, they go through ever more debilitating depressive states: 9-10 despondent; 6-8 discouraged, depressed, and begin losing hope in all things; 3-5 uncontrollable fits of anxiety and major depression; 1-3 agoraphobia and paranoia; 0 = suicidal. At negatives, they become crazed, manic, paranoid schizophrenic, and violent. Depair points can only be removed through exorcism or remove curse.
: cost 4 MP + 1d3 Sanity, and requires gem of summoning. Summons forth a Bug Beast to "protect" an area defined by distinguishable physical barriers (e.g., interior of a house). The Bug Beast feeds on fear, and will attack anyone in the area indiscriminately. (Monster details below)
: cost 1d3 Sanity + MP (Success= MP spent x 10% to a maximum of 90%). Depending on the level of success, summons 1 to 3 Night Gaunts that will obey a single simple instruction from the caster. Upon completion of the instruction, the Night Gaunts will return to their own plane.
: Cost 1d4 Sanity + 4 MP + POW resistance. Reveals the most prevalent thought of the target. If the POW resistance fails, the target knows they have been psychically attacked (and must make a Sanity Check for 0/1d2).
: Cost 1d6 Sanity + 8 MP. As long as there is any kind of breeze, the caster can walk through the air upon the breeze as if walking upon the ground. Walking straight up, of course, is not possible; and a steep incline slows movement as normal. Caster can walk 60' plus 60' per additional 1 MP spent.
Mythos Creatures
|1/1d4 per attack
|Sense Fear 90%
|10 – only harmed by magic
|At will: bugs disperse and reform up to 30' away
|human; fly human+6
|: cost 2 magic; time instant
|: cost 7 magic; creates a circle of despair with 15' radius from caster. POW vs. POW to resist. If fail, temporary insanity that causes appropriate "flight" actions for d3+2 rounds (but no lingering effects); after which, Sanity check 1/1d4.
|The Bug Beast will continue to attack an individual, until they suffer Temporary Insanity. It prefers to move between victims, making a show of dispersing and reforming, along with violating the mouth, nose, ears, and eyes on each attack.

A Powerful, More Accurate, Genetic Analysis Tool Opens New Gene-Regulation Realms
Researchers from Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI) at the University of Utah have developed a novel and powerful technique to identify the targets for a group of enzymes called RNA cytosine methyltransferases (RMTs) in human RNA. They applied their technique to a particular RMT, NSUN2, which has been implicated in mental retardation and cancers in humans, finding and validating many previously unknown RMT targets—an indication of the technique's power. The research results were published online in the journal Nature Biotechnology on April 21.

Remembering our friend Doug Walker and his great conservation legacy
Immediate Past Council Chair, Doug Walker
Courtesy of King County Sheriff's Office
As The Wilderness Society mourns Doug Walker, we celebrate his tremendous life's work and commit ourselves to carrying on his legacy of inspiring others to experience and protect the outdoors he loved.
The Seattle Times may have said it best: Doug's footprints are all over the mountains of Washington, among his favorite places to enjoy nature, but he left an even greater impression on the worlds of philanthropy and conservation.
"The legacy of Doug Walker will always be a part of our fight for protecting America's parks and wild heritage and he will be sorely missed." -Wilderness Society President Jamie Williams
A successful software entrepreneur, Doug was an active supporter of charitable, environmental and community organizations. In addition to serving on The Wilderness Society Governing Council from 1998 through 2015, Doug served as chairman of the board of trustees of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, as well as on the boards of the Seattle Parks Foundation, Green Diamond Resource Company, Conservation Lands Foundation, American Alpine Club, Forterra, Civil War Trust, UW College of the Environment, William D. Ruckelshaus Center and Sierra Club Foundation.
The entire Wilderness Society family sends its heartfelt condolences to Doug's wife, Maggie, and his daughter, Kina.
Many Wilderness Society staff and board members shared memories of Doug upon his tragic passing:
The Wilderness Society Governing Council:
David A. Churchill, Chair:
"Doug was a great inspiration. He instilled in me the confidence to do things I had not thought possible—from coming close (well, maybe) to keeping up with him on the hiking trail, to succeeding him as Chair of this great organization he loved. I knew earlier that he was an inspiration to others also, but it has become clear to me only recently just how many, almost countless, people were touched by his good deeds. Young, not so young, urban, outdoorsy—his boundless enthusiasm for this life will be missed by us all."
"Doug was more than a great wilderness advocate—he was fully alive and passionate about life. Even if he left us all in the dust on whatever the hike, he did it with such authentic joy and vitality that we loved him all the more."
The Wilderness Society Staff:
Jamie Williams, President:
"Doug's work to advance charitable causes—particularly conservation, recreation and access for all to our shared public lands – serves as testament to his commitment to making the world a better place. Doug's passion and leadership for protecting wilderness and getting kids from all backgrounds into the outdoors is something for which many generations will be grateful. He was an inspiring leader and a great friend. The legacy of Doug Walker will always be a part of our fight for protecting America's parks and wild heritage and he will be sorely missed. Today we are deeply saddened by this loss."
Ame Hellman, Vice President of Philanthropy:
"I am devastated by the news about our beloved Doug Walker. He was an amazing man, philanthropist, and board chair to The Wilderness Society. His enthusiasm for the outdoors, getting others outdoors and the protection of wilderness was intoxicating. My thoughts and prayers are with his beloved family, friends the many organizations that he loved and supported including our own TWS family. Godspeed to you Doug."
Kitty Thomas, Vice President of Communications and Marketing:
"One of the many wonderful things about Doug was how generous he was with his time. He was always willing to help when you faced a challenge or needed to think something through. And when you talked to him, it was like talking to no one else. He had so much energy that it was like plugging into a light socket—all at once he encouraged you, challenged you, and inspired you to do more, and to do it better. I came away from every conversation with Doug having learned something new, and feeling excited to tackle the work ahead. I feel very lucky to have known him, and I am grateful for the tremendous conservation legacy he leaves to us all. He will be deeply and profoundly missed."
Alan Rowsome, Senior Director of Government Relations for Lands:
"We've lost an incredible conservation leader and friend. Doug was passionate, energetic and lived life to the fullest. He was generous to a fault and one of the most inquisitive people I've ever met. He steered The Wilderness Society board for many years and was a tireless advocate for wild places. I was lucky to hike with him on a number of occasions, and I'll never forget the trivia questions and Civil War facts he regaled me with along the way. Doug will truly be missed."
Chase Huntley, Director of Energy and Climate Program:
"Doug was a force of nature whose sheer joy for the physical challenge and reward of climbing and hiking in wild places was infectious. He had a boundless energy for ensuring every American has the chance to experience the wonder of wilderness that touched thousands of lives. I will dearly miss his remarkable leadership and enthusiasm. With his passing, we lost a true champion for the regenerative power of the outdoors."
Paul Sanford, National Director of Recreation Policy:
"Doug was unrivaled in his dedication to outdoor recreation and conservation. He was the driving force behind a campaign to make public lands more accessible and increase opportunities for nonprofit organizations to connect young people to nature … We know of no better way to honor Doug's memory and build upon his legacy than to recommit to this work and grow the community of stewards for America's public lands."
Michael Carroll, Senior Director of National Partnerships:
"Long before it was considered a real issue, Doug was pushing numerous organizations, lawmakers and administration officials to understand that everyone should have access to public lands (most notably kids) and that for many Americans, especially those in urban and underserved communities, there are real barriers to getting outdoors. He challenged us to surface these issues and work hard to tear down barriers so that public lands would be accessible to all Americans. This vision and Doug's tireless dedication to bringing the conservation community and the recreation community together around this and other shared interests has changed the shape of conservation and transformed The Wilderness Society."
Sally Miller, Senior Regional Conservation Representative, California:
"Doug loved the Eastern Sierra and it was his idea to come out to celebrate passage of the Omnibus Act of 2009, which protected more than 450,000 acres of wilderness here. He also came out frequently to climb, so my husband and I got to see him periodically, usually for a beer or dinner in between his adventures. He was a staunch supporter of our work with the horse-packers to help ensure continuing and diverse access to National Park and Forest Service wilderness lands in the beautiful Sierra Nevada. I will miss him, a lot."
Jeff Widen, Senior Regional Conservation Representative:
"I met Doug at a meeting in Durango, before we climbed together in the desert south of Moab. We connected so well, and my family and I met Doug again, where he and I climbed some of the classic, historic routes in the North Cascades and Squamish. Doug was engaging, ever energetic, impressively fit and strong—and a wonderful partner and friend. I had hoped to tie into a rope with him again ... I wish you only the best journey my friend."
Melyssa Watson, Vice President of Conservation:
"Two of the most memorable hikes of my life were with Doug Walker. Doug had an ability to push me outside my comfort zone—but not beyond my limits—and as a result I saw and did things I would not have done but for Doug's encouragement. Doug had the same ability to challenge me and so many others on our staff to think creatively, to push limits and try new things in the service of protecting wilderness and especially in helping others experience and appreciate the outdoors. Doug's passion was contagious and his enthusiasm for sharing the outdoor experience with others unmatched. His strong support for and personal relationships with our staff was also unparalleled. His loss leaves a major gap for the many, many staff with whom he worked so closely, including me."
Ben Greuel, Washington State Program Director:
"Few people have had such a positive impact on our city, our state and our country as Doug Walker. I was lucky to work with and for Doug on not one, but three conservation organizations in which he served on the board of directors—a testament to his spirit of service in the causes he believed in. Yet despite our professional relationship, I am most proud to have been able to call him a friend. Of which he was a great one, loyal, honest and selfless. I'm going to miss our periodic hour long wide—ranging conversations that touched on multiple aspects of work and life immensely. As well as his nuggets of wisdom he willfully shared. Through his burning passion for the outdoors, he has helped introduce countless souls to the North Cascades and beyond, but despite his success, our mountains will be a bit lonelier without him. Miss you, Doug."

"He had everything to lose. His story is one of the most dramatic examples during World War Two of an Italian willing to risk his own life to save the lives of strangers." -Oren Jacoby
Gino Bartali was one of the leading cyclists of his era, a three-time winner of the Giro d'Italia, who also notched up two Tour de France victories, 10 years apart, before and after World War II.
In Road to Valor, Aili and Andres McConnon chronicle Bartali's journey, from an impoverished childhood in rural Tuscany to his first triumph at the 1938 Tour de France. As World War II ravaged Europe, Bartali undertook dangerous activities to help those being targeted in Italy, including sheltering a family of Jews and smuggling counterfeit identity documents in the frame of his bicycle. After the grueling wartime years, the chain-smoking, Chianti-loving, 34-year-old underdog came back to win the 1948 Tour de France, an exhilarating performance that helped unite his fractured homeland.
Bartali, a devout Catholic, was asked by the Cardinal of Florence, Archbishop Elia Dalla Costa, to join a secret network offering protection and safe passsage to Jews and other endangered people.
His role in the network was uniquely suited to his talents – he became a courier. On the face of it he was undertaking the long training rides for which he was renowned, but in reality he was carrying photographs and counterfeit identity documents to and from a secret printing press. He travelled thousands of kilometres across Italy, travelling the roads between cities as far apart as Florence, Lucca, Genoa, Assisi, and the Vatican in Rome.
Gino Bartali was posthumously awarded in September of 2013 with the honour Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem, the Holocaust memorial and education centre in Jerusalem.
Based on nearly ten years of research, Road to Valor is the first book ever written about Bartali in English and the only book written in any language to explore the full scope of Bartali's wartime work. An epic tale of courage, resilience, and redemption, it is the untold story of one of the greatest athletes of the twentieth century.

Would you risk your life to save a stranger?
The documentary My Italian Secret tells the story of cycling idol Gino Bartali, Dr. Giovanni Borromeo, and other courageous Italians who carried out ingenious schemes to rescue Jews, partisans, and refugees from Nazi-occupied Italy. Celebrated as a Tour De France champion, Gino Bartali's most daring triumph came when he risked his life to save Italian Jews by smuggling fake identification documents in the frame of his bicycle.
Dr. Borromeo invented a fictitious disease to scare the SS away from the hospital where he was hiding Jews. These men, and the networks in which they worked, reflect the efforts of thousands of Italians who risked their lives to save others.
As an entire continent was engulfed in genocide, more than 80 percent of Italy's Jews survived. In My Italian Secret, Oscar-nominated director Oren Jacoby reveals the dramatic stories of a secret underground that has remained largely unknown until now.

What with Google being all evil again, and also just from a desire to clear up some clutter, I deleted a bunch of stuff yesterday from various accounts. In the process I went through my old Google Docs with the intention of deleting files I already have saved elsewhere, and transferring the rest to Dropbox, which I highly recommend as an alternative.
As it turns out, there were a couple of convention reports and bits of fan writing that I hadn't archived here, including a Potlatch 18 report (with my favorite GOH experience ever) and an account of the Mutant Enemy Picket Day. While I'm under the hood I also figured I may as well spruce up all that text with links and photos, something I've been meaning to do for ages. It's gonna take forever, but rainy season is finally here and I have no conventions for a month, so the timing is perfect.

DESIGN AND INNOVATION AWARD FOR THE STAGE 12L January 07 2015, 0 Comments
The STAGE 12l is part of our PERFORMANCE BACKPACK line. With its technical features and the unique design it persuades the international jury of the DI.A 2015 at the category Equipment & Technology. One highlight of the STAGE 12l is the BRACE LINK carrying system with flexible straps that automatically adapt to individual shoulder widths. Combined with the low net weight, neutral weight/load distribution and sophisticated ventilation system, the system provides superior carrying comfort and outstanding freedom of movement when riding a bike. In addition, it enables wearing a neck brace.
|These multifunctional, technical backpacks of our TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE BACKPACK line meet the highest demands when it comes to functionality, carrying comfort and low weight. One of the reasons for this is the sophisticated AIR FLOW CONTACT back system. It distributes the weight neutrally to the body's centre of gravity while minimising the contact surface on the back and shoulders. We have also positioned the ventilation elements, such as channels and specially moulded, perforated EVA pads, behind a mesh fabric, in the form of "islands", and as such, to the inside. This helps optimise air circulation without limiting carrying comfort and neutral load distribution. Warm air can escape to the top as well as to the sides.
|The STAGE 12l also impresses with the unique, newly designed BRACE LINK carrying system. Whether you're slim and petite or tall and muscular, the flexible straps adapt to any shoulder width and consequently make for optimised carrying comfort. It's all in the BRACE LINK: This metal element connects the backpack and wearer in the most innovative way. Plus, it guarantees additional freedom of movement when riding a bike and enables you to wear a neck brace – hence the name.
As is customary for EVOC, the STAGE 12l incorporate a wide range of sophisticated technical features. Both have a tool compartment with separate quick access. An embossed emergency plan provides emergency steps and the most important phone numbers. A separate compartment offers space for a hydration system of up to three litres in capacity. There is also space for your sunglasses/goggles and other small necessities. But that's enough about pockets and compartments. The packs also offer individual attachment solutions for full-face and cross-country helmets as well as for protectors. Unobtrusive markings provide instructions. Convenient: The rain cover forms part of the features and can be pulled over the backpack in one simple step.
Here is the direct link to our award winner STAGE 12l or its bigger twin TRACE 18l.
