I'd suggest swapping the Northern Brewer with the Centennial and moving the latter to 15 minutes (or whatever you need to do to compensate for the increased IBUs). NB is a very nice bittering hop, and Centennial plays extremely well with Cascade, so by switching them, I think you'll enhance your overall flavor at the end.
