WOMANWITHDRIVE.COM.AU An Australian initiative and a world first for Porsche, it recognises the increasing importance of women in luxury car purchase. This online and mobile publication aims to keep the Woman With Drive up to speed by providing useful information on a wide range of subjects to help them navigate their busy lives. “Porsche is delighted to take this unique step in providing a female focused platform to engage with our loyal clientele, although the site will not be exclusive to Porsche drivers. We offer an opportunity for all discerning women with a premium mindset to enjoy the site’s thoughtful articles” said Paul Ellis, Porsche Cars Australia Public Relations Manager. Although womanwithdrive.com.au is sponsored by Porsche it is not a place to necessarily read about cars. In fact, Porsche’s gorgeous cars take a back seat to articles such as Luxury Travel, Fashion, Well-being and Success. “Porsche has shown great initiative in addressing the premium female market with a lifestyle website aimed at the busy woman. Our experienced team of women journalists and writers research and author all the content, so the site is elegant, engaging and succinct. A regular stream of new articles will keep WOMAN WITH DRIVE womanwithdrive.com.au fresh, exciting and thoroughly contemporary,” said Sharyn Lowe, LAUNCH EVENT Managing Director at Flaunt Marketing who Top left: will be looking after the site. Larni De Courtnay & Angie Fung “Initial testing and feedback on the test site Bottom right: has been outstanding and we are confident Nicole Stockton, Alex Bromley & Alison Dean womanwithdrive.com.au will be bookmarked and saved as a favourite by many women throughout Australia.” Around 20 per cent of all Porsches on the road are driven by women, with that number set to increase as Porsche expands its sporty model range with a new Cayman two-seater sports coupe in 2013 and an exciting new compact SUV in 2014 called the Macan. womanwithdrive.com.au has been designed and formatted for all major digital devices: computer, iPad and iPhone.

Some travel to get away from their daily lives, to relax and unwind. Some go in search of adventure, from mild to wild. Many, particularly mature travelers who make up the majority of our clientele, love to learn while they are traveling. It’s the moment when everything in your world aligns perfectly. At that moment, life feels perfect. You are looking at a spectacular monument to humanity or nature (think Crazy Horse), listening to an amazing speaker share experiences or just enjoying the moment so much you can’t imagine being in a better place. Those of us who strive to create those moments for you feel the same way you do when it happens. It can be as small as the feeling on the bus when it pulls through the entrance to Disneyland (yes, even older kids… wait especially older kids, really get excited and you can feel the excitement on the bus).

Having just completed a national tour in October with legendary Italian Giallo Horror soundtrack masters, Goblin, they released their long-awaited “Book of Souls: Folio A” album in late November. Next they are touring the west coast in February in support of that new album, and, surprise of surprises, are doing so armed with TWO new 7" records in hand. These will be available in stores stocking through Revolver USA, but those attending shows on the band’s February tour can get them right away. In truth, Secret Chiefs 3 is always in high gear. Most people don’t realize they have played well over 300 shows in 34 countries in the last seven years. But with a long-labored-over album in the can (you can read about it in the expanded bio), and fresh supplies of oxygen in the lungs, fresh new surprise releases are bubbling up through the Winter pseudo-frost as if it were Spring! This tour will feature the A-team line-up of SC3 familiars: Drums / Ches Smith (Ceramic Dog), Key- boards / Matt Lebofsky (miRthkon, Moe Tar), Bass / Toby Driver (Kayo Dot), Violin, Guitar and Trum- pet / Timba Harris (Estradasphere) and Saz, Guitar and Keyboards / Trey Spruance (The Three Doctors, Mr.

    THE SIX BOOKS APOCRYPHON: TOWARDS A RITUAL ANALYSIS by Ana H. Golland B.A., Florida International University, 2000 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate And Postdoctoral Studies (Ancient Culture, Religion and Ethnicity) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2015 © Ana H. Golland, 2015 ABSTRACT The dormition narratives, concerned with relating the last days of Mary, seem to have emerged in the late fourth century. This thesis will focus on one example of the dormition narratives, the Syriac Six Books Apocryphon. By comparing The Six Books Apocryphon with other dormition narratives, and through analysis of the text within a ritual theoretical framework, this thesis will aim to discuss its significance and relevance as an example of marginal Christian groups, syncretism, and the diversity of Christian groups in the third to fifth centuries. It will also demonstrate the value of ritual theories for the study of religious texts. Dormition narratives are important because of what we are able to glean from them regarding the history of Christianity prior to the triumph of orthodoxy as we know it today. I find The Six Books Apocryphon particularly interesting as an example of the wide range of popular groups and beliefs in late antiquity considered heretical in nature by figures such as Epiphanius of Salamis, as well as for exploring the reasons why texts such as this and the groups that produced them remained marginal. Furthermore, this text exemplifies the syncretism that has characterized Christianity since Antiquity. For the purposes of this thesis paper, my main focus is Wright’s version of the Syriac Six Books Apocryphon, the features that render this text different from all the other dormition narratives, and what those differences can tell us about the communities in which the text was produced and used.
