North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD, /ˈnɔːræd/), known until March 1981 as the North American Air Defense Command, is a combined organization of the United States and Canada that provides aerospace warning, air sovereignty, and defense for Northern America. Headquarters for NORAD and the NORAD/United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) center are located at Peterson Air Force Base in El Paso County, near Colorado Springs, Colorado. The nearby Cheyenne Mountain Complex has the Alternate Command Center. The NORAD commander and deputy commander (CINCNORAD) are, respectively, a United States four-star general or equivalent and a Canadian three-star general or equivalent.
CINCNORAD maintains the NORAD headquarters at Peterson Air Force Base near Colorado Springs, Colorado. The NORAD and USNORTHCOM Command Center at Peterson AFB serves as a central collection and coordination facility for a worldwide system of sensors designed to provide the commander and the leadership of Canada and the U.S. with an accurate picture of any aerospace or maritime threat. NORAD has administratively divided the North American landmass into three regions: the Alaska NORAD (ANR) Region, under Eleventh Air Force (11 AF); the Canadian NORAD (CANR) Region, under 1 Canadian Air Division, and the Continental U.S. (CONR) Region, under 1 AF/CONR-AFNORTH. Both the CONR and CANR regions are divided into eastern and western sectors.
An air force, also known in some countries as an air army, is in the broadest sense, the national military organization that primarily conducts aerial warfare. More specifically, it is the branch of a nation's armed services that is responsible for aerial warfare as distinct from an army, navy, or a marine corps. Typically, air forces are responsible for gaining control of the air, carrying out strategic and tactical bombing missions, and providing support to land and naval forces.
The term "air force" may also refer to a tactical air force or numbered air force, which is an operational formation either within a national air force or comprising several air components from allied nations. Air forces typically consist of a combination of fighters, bombers, helicopters, transport planes and other aircraft.
Many air forces are also responsible for operations of the military space, intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), and communications equipment. Some air forces may command and control other air defence assets such as anti-aircraft artillery, surface-to-air missiles, or anti-ballistic missile warning networks and defensive systems. Some nations, principally Russia, the former Soviet Union and countries who modelled their militaries along Soviet lines, have an air defence force which is organizationally separate from their air force.
Never Summer Industries"" is a Colorado-based snowboard and longboard (skateboard) manufacturer. All boards are built in the Never Summer factory in Denver, Colorado.
In 2010, with just over 70 employees, Never Summer produced 22,000 snowboards, 12,000 longboards, and 2,000 promotional products. Additionally, Never Summer created 6,000 skis for local, partnering ski companies.
Never Summer offers a wide variety of boards specific to rider style and preference. All boards feature a three year warranty.
The company also creates a clothing line in conjunction with the board lineup each year.
Before the founding of Never Summer, the company owners were designing and building boards since 1983. Brothers, Tracey and Tim Canaday, started building boards under the company name Swift Snowboards with friend Scott Rolfs. Tim Canaday, age fourteen at the time, was creating the snowboard shapes in his high school wood shop.
In 1991, Never Summer Industries was born after a move back to Colorado. The company is named after the Never Summer Mountains, western edge of Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado and extending into Routt and Arapaho National Forests where there are pockets of snow all year. After another move to Denver in 1993 to be closer to suppliers, Never Summer has taken root and developed into a fully operating manufacturer and international distributor.

You too can donate your radiator and spread some warmth! http://www.africafornorway.com/ Follow the discussion on http://www.twitter.com/hashtag/africafornorway Imagine if every person in Africa saw the "Africa for Norway" video and this was the only information they ever got about Norway. What would they think about Norway? If we say Africa, what do you think about? Hunger, poverty, crime or AIDS? No wonder, because in fundraising campaigns and media that's mainly what you hear about. The pictures we usually see in fundraisers are of poor African children. Hunger and poverty is ugly, and it calls for action. But while these images can engage people in the short term, we are concerned that many people simply give up because it seems like nothing is getting better. Africa should not just...

The idea of TheHundred seems simple - a group of people who love house music and act as a vessel to connect others to said music. But whether you are on the inside or out, the connections formed by TheHundred run much deeper. It prioritizes everything that is awesome about friends, family, costumes, light refraction, gender-bending, endorphins, bouncing booties, pheromones, and extroverted all-inclusive social habits. TheHundred is a bridge that leads to some of the strongest friendships around, and the good nature of these great co-mingling souls is contagious and addicting. It’s set to the back-drop of premier talent from around the world. 100+ people giving 100 percent to a loving, inclusive, music-obsessed family! (P.S. Unicorns and Discoballs!!)

This film tells the story of a research project focusing on Gender Equality, Education and Poverty (GEEP) in South African and Sudan. The GEEP project sets out to address issues related to equality, equity, education and poverty in two post-conflict settings. The questions focused upon in the project relate to how global aspirations to advance gender equality are understood and practiced in local contexts. In this film we attempt to highlight some of the issues which confront gender equality in education and in doing so, we talk to students, teachers, principals and researchers involved in the project along with international experts.
