Subjects covered: Takeya (permitted lying), Abrogation (one text negates another in the Quran), The Qur'an, Democracy in Islam.

My kids and I went to one of these fly-ins a few years ago and we still talk about it to this day. We took a helicopter and an airplane ride that day. And meeting these people, learning about the different languages, cultures, etc. was very educational.- Michael Grice

Free Picture Editors:
This piece of free software gets very good reviews fom CNet. I have not tried it. For the more experienced user,but not as heavy duty as Photoshop. Click here
GIMP is another image editor that is amazing---almost as good as the $500 Adobe Photoshop. It is free online and works on PC, MAC or Linux. Click here to get it.

Computer Tip: (
from Kathy Walters)
It's very useful when trying to read small print.
If you hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard and then turn the wheel
in the middle of your mouse away from you or towards you, the print size
will change - it will either get larger or smaller - depending on which way
you turn the wheel. Try it.
