The other IKE that deserves attention

Those who judge hurricane risk merely by their Saffir-Simpson category number (1-5) are not getting the entire picture. Another (coincidentally-named) IKE (Intergrated Kinetic Energy) proposes an improved method of classifying hurricanes, one that takes into account their size and separates the danger components of sea surge (which kills 9 out of 10 hurricane victims) and wind. By that measure, Hurricane Ike is the most dangerous storm in 40 years. Ike's path reminds many of the greatest natural disaster in U.S. History, the Great Hurricane of 1900 (91 minute History Channel video on Google) which killed thousands due mainly to the great sea surge. After that the 17' Galveston sea wall was built and it has never been topped since by hurricane waves. Hurricane Ike may change that as current wave heights (WVHT) being reported by buoy data in the vicinity of Ike are well over 20 feet. A computer-simulated "Hurricane Carly" shows the results of various sea surges for the Galveston area (with graphic graphics): Play with real-time data and forecasts for the western gulf with the experimental nowCoast.

Attend Gym to Enhance, not Escape, other Subjects

Circuit relays, fulcrums and pulleys support not just exercise, but concepts in science and social studies, thanks to an innovative gym teacher. With instruction this clever, I might have better enjoyed all three of those subjects when I was in school, instead of loathing them! Her program was implemented with the help of a foundation award from her local school system.

The I AM University honors all religions, Spiritual teachers, Spiritual paths, Spiritual texts, gurus, yogis, Masters, Spiritual centers, schools of thought, mystery schools, channels, healers, prophets, saints, sages, Spiritual leaders, counselors, philosophies and psychologies, all of humanity, all Kingdoms, and all Light, Love and Power Workers around the world! The I AM University seeks to offer an integrated and balanced approach to Self and God Realization. If what has been given inflames within you a spark of inspiration and aspiration to dedicate your life to the evolution of consciousness, both personal and planetary, then it will have served its purpose and bear the fruit it was intended to. From the FAQ. Q: How can I know that I am actually participating in the inner plane training programs and curriculum of the I AM University? A: Everybody attends classes at night while they sleep, whether they are aware of it or not. Even while we are awake in this world (of outer consciousness), the greater part of our consciousness is active on the inner plane, going through inner plane trainings, doing planetary service work and so forth. We are consciousness, not physical bodies. Our Monad, which as a spark of God is our true identity, extends a 144th part of its energy through our outer/Earthly consciousness. Our Earthly consciousness, which most of humanity identifies with, is just a fraction of the totality of our consciousness. You will automatically be taken in your sleep state to work in whatever program you are currently working with on Earth. To see which Earthly correspondence course correlates with which inner plane training program, please see the “inner/outer plane training correlation”. It helps if you “set the intent” to go to the inner plane I AM University before you fall asleep for it will gear your consciousness in the right direction and help you become more “conscious” of what you do on the inner planes. You will go there, whether you are aware of it or not for energy follows thought; however, the more “consciously” you are involved with the I AM University through studying and applying its curriculum, the easier it will be for you to remember your inner plane experiences and retain what you learn. We are pleased to offer the following service, "Specialized Externalization Sessions for 8 Inner Plane Programs", to help you become more aware of your training on the inner plane.
