Ken Venturi: Golfer, Storyteller, Rat Pack-er
Last night on the "In Memory of" portion of the ESPYS, a man by the name of Ken Venturi was mentioned having recently passed away. But several months before that I wrote a brief profile on him for NBC Bay Area.
Just days before his death, the 82-year-old San Francisco native, golf champion and national golf broadcaster, Ken Venturi joined 130 of the greatest golfers in the world.
Venturi participated in SJSU's golf team during the years of 1951-53′ and his induction is described as "a tremendous honor for one of SJSU's most decorated athletes of all time," by SJSU Athletics Media Relations Director Lawrence Fan. "He had a wonderful professional career in sports and then in broadcasting while always keeping SJSU close to his heart," Fan said. "He still has constant contact with the men's golf coach and has conducted clinics and fundraisers on behalf of the golf program here at SJSU."
Being the only amateur with a 54-hole lead in the Masters, the voice of CBS Sports for 35 years and winning captain of the 2000 President's Cup are just a few accomplishments under Venturi's belt. His proceeding broadcasting career even proved exceptional when he was awarded the PGA of American Lifetime Achievement in Journalism Award in 2000.
USGA Executive Director Mike Davis told Spartan Athletics that Venturi's 1964 U.S. Open victory is one of the greatest moments of the tournament's 112-year history. "His ability to overcome extremely difficult conditions at Congressional personifies the perseverance, determination and execution required to be a U.S. Open champion."
Part of a golden era in Bay Area golfing, Venturi joined golfers Bob Rosburg, Johnny Miller and George Archer in a San Franciscans-take-all winning streak. "The last time I had tears in my eyes was when I won the U.S. Open," Venturi said. "This has been a special day, and I'm deeply honored."
He participated in many charities including New York-based organization called Guiding Eyes Classic which benefited blind golfers and raised more than $6 million. One of the participating guide dogs ended up saving his owner's life, safely guiding him down the stairs of the World Trade Center's North Tower.
Venturi's off-field life also proved one for the books, but when your best friend slash roommate is Frank Sinatra and you get a shout out in one of Mark Frost's books, no less is expected.
He is survived by his third wife, Kathleen, and two sons, Matthew and Tim, according to The Associated Press.
You can read my original story for NBC Bay Area here. A great gallery of photos called "Ken Venturi through the years" is available for viewing on SFGate's blog.
Queen of the Lens
In what was the best birthday deadline I've come upon, I had the pleasure of writing a profile on innovative photog Annie Leibovitz' for the current 5.2 "Invent" issue of Content Magazine on newsstands now.
While she is responsible for capturing masterpieces like the Disney Dream Series, John Lennon hours before his death, and countless magazine covers, Annie Leibovitz is no exception to life's hardships. After going through depression, financial struggles and the passing of her partner, Leibovitz divulged to us how she found renewal at an older age, through a series of stills which are on display in an exhibit called Pilgrimage. Here are a couple excerpts and outtakes:
"The renewal process began on a trip with her children. In a deep depression, Leibovitz reluctantly went with her daughter sightseeing at Niagara Falls. ' There is this moment, where you ask yourself, 'Well, should I jump?' she says jokingly. But, 'I saw my kids staring at the falls, just mesmerized. I started thinking of places I wanted to go."
"One thing they teach young photographers is bring them through the darkroom idea so you know how imagery is made. But that will probably go away at some point. I'm a photographer student with this digital as the rest of us. This project really showed me the latitude that we have in digital. It taught me that what we disliked about digital to begin with is what we're really thriving on. Before we didn't want to see things sharp. And now we want to see things sharp. We're going deeper into the ocean and higher in the sky. We're seeing animals in the dark. It's exciting."
"One of the great things of getting older is you do know what you're doing. And, sometimes you're successful and sometimes you're not, but it's okay. I think it has to do with if you survive a Rolling Stones tour in your 20s and still live, then you go into some other kind of status," she says jokingly. "Then you get to be in your late 60s and you just have to hang in there."
And here's more from the issue including another story I did on the company Slice:
The Art of The Blade
After dedicating his life's work toward supporting his special needs son, Slice founder and serial entrepreneur TJ Scimone turned his day job into a channel of innovating basic household items. (Content Magazine)
Q & A: Lubov Azria
At last week's Academy of Art Fashion show in San Francisco, I got the chance to chat with Lubov Azria—the woman behind the BCBGMAXAZRIA brand. My interview was featured on Style Wax Poetic. Check it out below!
With more than 500 retail stores worldwide and over 200 in the U.S., BCBGMAXAZRIA GROUP has dominated women's fashion retail. The husband-wife team has nearly perfected the sexy, body-hugging dress to the likes of celebrities such as Angelina Jolie and First Lady Michelle Obama.
Lubov Azria is the woman behind it all—BCBGMAXAZRIA, Hervé Léger and more. She and husband Max Azria were awarded Honorary Doctorate degrees from The Academy of Art University on Friday, where I got to sit down with her to talk about fashion, technology and keeping things fresh with Max in the design room.
JE: How did you know fashion was your official artistic choice of expression?
LA: I didn't, it was a journey. I originally started as a Ballerina in Ukraine. And then, growing older, that wasn't the right path for me and I also loved art. I wanted to be an art professor. But then I realized it wasn't very profitable and very competitive and my alternate was fashion.
JE: What is the biggest piece of advice you are giving to young fashion designers?
LA: Follow your dreams. And never give up. That alone, will take you far.
JE: What was the first article of clothing you and Max ever designed together?
LA: Oh gosh, hmm… I think it was a suit made out of stretch satin.
JE: In your opinion, what is the most important thing for people to consider when dressing themselves?
LA: Dress to your body shape. I think many people don't realize they might not look good in certain shapes. Wear clothes that give you more shape. Women should dress based on their body shape not based on trends.
JE: You've dressed many famous celebrities, but who have you not styled/dressed yet that you'd like to?
LA: That's a good question. I love musicians so I'd really like to dress Blondie.
JE: From Hervé Léger to the Miley Cyrus collaboration for Wal-Mart, you've created created a broad spectrum of clothing lines. Why is it important for you to have such diverse cornerstones of fashion retail?
LA: I think it's exciting. There's an opportunity that comes your way and it's really good to experiment with it and see where it takes you. You know, life is a journey not a destination. So I think it's good to experience collaboration and communication with other designers.
JE: Which of you had the idea of revamping Hervé Léger, you or Max?
LA: We were both really passionate about it, it was teamwork. It's very unique and truly special and truly couture. It's been an artists' dream to work on that line.
JE: Do you still have the same passion you had from Day 1? If so, what keeps you so passionate?
LA: I believe my purpose in life, is to make things better. I wake up each morning with only one thought, 'how do I make it better?' And that's what drives me every single day. Improve, make it better, grow, learn, evolve, change inspire.
JE: You've said you find inspiration everywhere in your travels. Have you found inspiration from San Francisco?
LA: Oh my gosh, absolutely. This is my first time truly able to enjoy the city and, wow, the interior design here is incredible. The old mixed with the new—it's incredibly inspirational. I didn't realize how amazing this city is. I think when people talked about San Francisco—now, I have a totally new perspective.
JE: You are in the Silicon Valley at the moment, has technology had an impact on your businesses?
LA: Yes, it's changed everything. My favorite app is iAnnotate, I can't live without my iPhone and I'm constantly on my iPad. I use Skype with my kids when we're apart and I, just… can't image being without technology. I see a huge difference from when we first started designing. Social media has been incredible and the whole blogging industry has been a fantastic revolution. These women have something to say, have impeccable sense of style, are great writers and great communicators. I'm obsessed with them.

Outtakes with Jessalyn Gilsig
Last week I got the chance to sit down with actress Jessalyn Gilsig for an interview for Content Magazine. Kindly embracing our bombardment of light fixtures, hairstylists and photographers, Gilsig gave me a great interview… so great in fact, it couldn't all fit in the original story. So, enjoy these moments (short of Glee-king out) that didn't make the cut.
JE: Had Terri Schuester (Glee) stayed on the show, what do you think her charactar would be up to right now?
JG: She would have ruined the wedding for sure. I would have walked in, making trouble and fighting to get my man. That's what I loved about Terri. She was still misguided but she wasn't looking for power or fame or that much money, she was just going about it all the wrong the way, but she was always motivated by love for him. We all make these crazy decisions in the name of love. As a kid, you had a crush on a boy and you knew his neighborhood and then you fantasized that you'd run into him at the local store and then it would be on! We all do these silly things to move the forces of love in our favor.
JE: Can we expect some more visits this season or seasons to come?
JG: Yeah. The door is always open. Ryan (writer of the show) and I have known each other for so long now so he knows I'll always show up if he calls.
JE: This film (Somewhere Slow) is about risks, what is the biggest risk you've ever taken?
JG: I was young and living in New York and was about to move back to Canada because I was out of money and my visa was about to expire. All of the sudden, I got a check in the mail from an animated movie I did and my first thought was, 'I'm going to L.A.' I had no idea what I was walking into but I just did it. It was like somthing just carried me there. I wasn't looking to get into hollywood, I was just looking for meaningful work and the rest is history.
JE: How was working with costars the young Graham Patrick Martin, and Lincoln's David Costabile (Lincoln)?
JG: I called up David and said we needed him because we needed that person who was hilarious but could play someone who's not the coolest guy in the world but he's a good person and good husband. It wasn't like her husband was an asshole, they're just not connecting. Ya know, we have that so much in our real relationships. You could be living with a person and still feel alone and that's what they're doing. I love David so much because he's absolutely willing to embody that role and he did it so beautifully. I feel like he added so much dimension to the film.
Graham was so lovely, and he was just at that moment in life, where you could see him coming out of his adolescence, and the man was kind of consuming his body but was not there all the way not fully-realized. And he played the role with subtly and patience and we just knew he was Travis.
JE: How was your experience as not just an actor, but also a producer on this film?
JG: First off, I realized how much I knew. Because, as an actor nobody asks you your opinion. Nobody says "Do you think we should start with this scene in the morning or this other scene?" You're not looking at any logistical decisions around you. But I realized I had been absorbing all that information. It was very different being a part of decisions like scouting locations, casting actors and looking for funding. One guy we went to talk to about investing in the film had like 50 cats. All of the sudden I was sitting in cat piss. I laughed and thought, wow so this is producing an independent film. (laughs)
JE: Tell me about your experience being on the cast of the new TV series Vikings.
JG: A lot of time and care was put into creating this world of the Vikings. Having written the Elizabeth movies and The Tudors, he (Michael Hirst) has this way of doing these historical epics with human element. When I first met him, he said something really beautiful to me, "We can do a piece set in this period but we're still telling stories about people. If there's one thing that's universal, wherever you land in time or wherever you live, it's that we all love our children." We're all just people and I feel like that really comes off in the show because it's so much about relationships.
JE: Your characters have some serious fan bases from Glee to Nip/Tuck to Heroes. So, which do you get recognized for most?
JG: Surprisingly, Nip/Tuck. It had a very strong and specific following. And Glee is next. Then Heroes with the people who love the supernatural recognize me. But now, with Netflix, people still watch older shows like Nip/Tuck… a lot.
JE: How has it been going from TV to film?
JG: It's so different it's all about adapting and being open to the unknown. TV is very fast. We shoot between seven and eleven pages a day. In film, they'll shoot two to three pages a day. In television, you have to make decisions very quickly and you have to be alert. On a show like Vikings, you can evolve a character so it's like doing a film over the course of a miniseries. Really good TV these days is more like film and audiences are eating it up like Downton Abbey and Breaking Bad or these shows where people are committed to these whole series as an experience. I feel like TV's at this amazing place, where everything we like about film is in television, so instead of a 2-hour movie, we have these 9-hour movies and these epic experiences. So, in a way, I feel like I'm reaping the benefits of this now since I'm attuned to working quickly.
JE: What did you think of opening night at Cinequest with the film Ginger and Rosa?
JG: I really liked how it was a slow burn. You're like 'where is this going', is it going anywhere? And then all these characters that had never interacted appeared in one room together in the scene at the end and it had that amazing payoff. In a way, you were worried like, 'I don't know if there's enough heater to a climax.' Elle Fanning, the emotion she brought it was excrutiating and really excellent. It called into question, this idea that we have to have these social codes, we have to have some kind of restriction on our behavior, but we have to respect others.
You can catch the last showing of Somewhere Slow at Cinequest this Friday, and you can read the full magazine spread here.
Interview: Jessalyn Gilsig
I got the chance to sit down with actress Jessalyn Gilsig to talk about her work and life while she was in San Jose for the annual Cinequest Film Festival. Alongside an uber-talented Content Magazine team, we bombarded her Fairmont hotel room with light fixtures and hair stylists for a high-fashion editorial photo shoot. I got the chance to chat with her about her eccentric charactars and her latest role as producer in new film Somewhere Slow.
Jessalyn Gilsig is no stranger to playing complicated roles: ex-wife of Will Schuester (Glee), destructive nymphomaniac (Nip/Tuck), and fire-starting superhero (Heroes) just to name a few. But this weekend, she debuts her most risky and complicated role yet and she's giving Cinequest viewers a front row seat.

French Bread Pizza
1 photo of French Bread Pizza Recipe
J Rae
This photo only shows half the pizza, because my husband and I had already devoured the other half before I could get the camera! It's better than delivery pizza any day, and so much healthier.
- 1
- tube pillsbury french bread dough (next to the pizza crust roll in the cooler section.)
- 8 oz
- 96% lean ground beef (i find this at walmart - 4 gr fat per 4 oz serving)
- 14 1/2 oz
- can of fire roasted tomatoes (drained and lightly squeezed dry)
- 1 small
- can of sliced mushrooms, drained very well
- 1 c
- frozen pepper and onion blend
- 1 jar(s)
- ragu homestyle pizza sauce
- 24 slice
- hormel turkey pepperoni
- 3/4 c
- kraft fat free cheddar cheese - shredded
- 3/4 c
- kraft 2% mozzarella cheese - shredded
How to Make French Bread Pizza
- 1preheat oven to 400*. while oven is heating, start frying the ground beef and peppers/onions blend together.
- 2while beef is browning, drain tomatoes and mushrooms, and open french bread tube.
- 3spray a large cookie sheet with pan spray, and CAREFULLY find the edge of the bread roll (it looks like a "seam"). unroll the bread and lay it on your baking sheet. you may have to "patch a hole or two", or stretch the dough gently to fit your pan.
- 4pour the pizza sauce over the dough, then start layering the ingredients, sprinkling the fire-roasted tomatoes, and mushrooms over the whole pizza evenly.
- 5take the two shredded cheeses and pour them into a bowl together. mix them up with your hands, then top pizza (this seems to distribute the fat/nonfat cheese more evenly, and the melt on the pizza is good).
- 6bake for 15 minutes and cut into 12 large pieces to enjoy! the count for this pizza per slice is: 165 calories, 3.5 grams fat, 19 grams total carbs! serve with a side salad and feel like you've splurged...

Yes it would be suitable if used as a shell since it is not insulated.
Good question! It's pretty difficult to accurately gauge the temperature a garment like this will perform in, due to the various factors that affect warmth (insulation, layering, breathability, etc.).

text: I just talked to my dealer yesterday about a new Z. The regional distributor has a special on a 62" Toro Z w/ 27 hp liquid cooled Kaw, and deluxe seat for $8,699. They are also including a Toro snow blower. This machine fits what I anticipate needing for next season. This dealer is my best, most convenient dealer and provides great service. Opinions on machine, price, the liquid cooled Kaw would be appreciated. An additional bonus is that they are offering no payment, no interest financing till May, 2002. Another plus, if I take delivery prior to 12/31, I will be able to write it off totally in 2001 by using the Section 179 expense election. What do you think?

Wichita small business wins
national environmental award.
In a city known for entrepreneurial spirit and good old-fashioned Midwest values, one Wichita-area business has been noted for both.
Nancy and Mark Staal, local owners of Martinizing Dry Cleaning, have received a national Small Business Recognition Award of environmental stewardship for their efforts in developing and running an environmentally friendly business. The award, presented May 8 by the Small Business Environmental Assistance Program (SBEAP), recognizes exemplary performance in developing effective methods or tools to assist small businesses in complying with environmental laws and regulations.
"Even in high school, I can remember thinking about how my decisions would affect the environment," says Nancy, who along with her husband Mark are lifetime Midwesterners. So, in 2005 when the decision came to move back to Kansas from Wisconsin, the Staals chose to look at a dry cleaning business opportunity that didn't use harmful petrochemical solvents, or "percs," to clean clothes.
"We're very proud to be the only Wichita dry cleaner with GreenEarth," says Mark, noting GreenEarth uses no petrochemicals, instead relying on a natural process that uses silicone sand, from nature. "That's why our three Martinizing stores don't smell like a dry cleaner. "
While the Staals are gratified by the award, their environmental efforts don't stop there. Martinizing's e-newsletter, Freshly Pressed, provides helpful tips on garments as well as customer coupons. The new Martinizing website, wichitasdrycleaner.com, showcases GreenEarth and lets customers sign up for Martin Member benefits. And their new Facebook page has offered promotions such as $100 of free dry cleaning, and concert ticket giveaways. "We want to embrace the digital world not just to engage our customers, but to continue our paperless transition," shares Nancy. "And every time a customer picks up fresh, clean clothes and comments about GreenEarth, we know we made the right decision."
For more information, please contact Nancy Staal at (316) 558-8008.
Martinizing® Dry Cleaning is Wichita's only licensed dry cleaner to offer GreenEarth®, a natural cleaning process that uses sand - from nature, not volatile, toxic petrochemicals like most dry cleaners still use today.

MISSION VIEJO – Traffic on I-5 backed up for miles after an overturned concrete truck that spilled diesel fuel closed a lane Tuesday morning.
The freeway was reopened around 4 p.m.
The driver was able to get out of the vehicle, which crashed at 6:50 a.m. on the southbound 5 at Oso Parkway, according to the California Highway Patrol. The truck struck a tree as it crashed and then started smoking.
Caltrans crews were called to clean up about 40 gallons of spilled diesel fuel and 20 gallons of hydraulic fluid, said Officer Denise Quesada of the CHP, and the truck's barrel for concrete also separated from the truck bed. None of the spilled materials reached storm drains, Quesada added.
Staff writer Denisse Salazar contributed to this report.

What is Daily Deal Superstore?
The Daily Deals trend has had a meteoric rise, most notably with the advent of Groupon, followed quickly by other large organizations which have sprung up, such as Gilt City, Living Social and KGB. It is easy to see why these companies are having success. Who could resist 50% or more off our favorite goods and services? This phenomenon has spread worldwide and these companies have millions of members worldwide.
Consumer spending on daily deal offers is poised to grow more than 35%, to reach $3.9 billion in the US by 2015, according to a March 2011 forecast by BIA/Kelsey.
With the abundance of daily deals being offered, the market has now become congested with a vast number deal companies offering fresh deals every day. Users feel overwhelmed by the number of deals they receive in their email inbox each day and the deals they receive are often not even relevant to them. They could get 10 emails offering salon and nail treatments.
Wouldn't it be great to get one focused email with only the deals the individual wants in the cities of their choice? This is exactly what Daily Deal Superstore does!
- We aggregate hundreds of deal companies and thousands of daily deals, promoting them in over 900 cities worldwide
- All the deals are categorized – from Dining and Nightlife, to Pets
- All deals are further segmented by country and interest – for example Golf in Spain and Health in the US
- Users can choose the cities they want, the types of deals that they prefer and interests at a local, national or international level
- We create a personal preferences page, displaying the user's cities, interests and preferred deals only
- The user can also select the frequency of the emails they receive
- Any user who wants to buy, clicks the deal and is directed to the relevant provider's website to purchase the deal
Partnership Opportunity
Daily Deal Superstore can be integrated easily into your site via the following deployment methods:
- Advert on your site
- Splash page
- E-mail campaign
- Referral link
- Live Daily Deals API feed
- Easy to use Deal Widget
Revenue Share
We track the activity of every contact that comes from your site or campaign with a unique tracking code. When they register, we associate them with your account, and you will earn a commission on everything they buy through Daily Deal Superstore.*
We may assume that 20 percent of your user base will be interested in daily deals and that a user may spend of $50 per month, so you can see that the commission earned could be significant.
We simply share this revenue with you.

F&C Management was created after Foreign & Colonial Management was taken over by Dutch financial services group Eureko in March 2001 and the latter's asset management activities were integrated into the F&C brand. Currently, F&C manages more than £62bn in assets for both institutional and retail investors. It is therefore surprising that the London-based asset manager's five-strong legal team handles 95 per cent of the company's legal work in-house. This is one achievement of which F&C's director of legal services Gillian Switalski is extremely proud.
"We're very hands-on in the department. People don't need to come to us, so we have to demonstrate that we're on the ball, value for money and won't rack up bills, and can give them the answers they need," explains Switalski.
Before Switalski was appointed to head F&C's legal function, the fund manager had only one in-house lawyer, so it farmed out most of the legal work to external advisers. But when Switalski joined F&C three and a half years ago, she decided to build a legal team from scratch. Today, she has three lawyers in London and one in Amsterdam who can work in English, Dutch, French and German.
"I completely changed things around so most of the legal work is now done in-house," she explains. "We now draft all our own derivatives documents and investment management agreements.
"I've got a relatively young team and it's really nice to see them developing and growing. And because they're different nationalities we get a really good mix. It's a great pleasure working with them."
Recently, F&C's in-house legal team handled the dissolution of a PVF trust in the Netherlands in order to segregate client money. To achieve this, F&C had to register individual funds and enter into new agreements with various banks. As a result, Switalski's team had to draft a string of new derivatives documents.
"We had to disband the trust because the client money was in pools and, from a compliance point of view, we thought it was appropriate to segment the money for transparency. This wasn't for a particular reason, but following the advent of more regulatory controls we felt we wanted to be ahead of the game," says Switalski.
Switalski also brought intellectual property (IP) into her department. Previously, F&C's small IP portfolio was handled externally and overseen by the marketing department. But Switalski argues that it needed to sit in the legal department. She adds that one of her greatest achievements in this area was successfully buying the 'fandc.com' domain name from a drugs company for significantly less than the $1m (£589,000) asking price.
Switalski, however, does not shy away from obtaining additional support from external lawyers on large-scale projects. "We should be able to do our day-to-day job, but if it's a huge project it makes sense to talk to someone outside who's an expert in that area," she says.
Recently, Switalski instructed longstanding adviser Norton Rose to advise on a landmark outsourcing deal to transfer the institutional administration function of F&C's £41.7bn business to Mellon Global Securities Services, the custody and investment arm of Mellon Financial Corporation.
"Because [Mellon] was such a huge project and done in such a tight timeframe, we essentially wanted another check. We wanted a risk log to make sure we hadn't missed anything," says Switalski. "The documentation also became a lot more complicated. We had 14 work streams that had to be factored into the contract. Then we had to make sure the work streams meshed together. So it wasn't a simple transaction."
She adds: "It was very helpful because they [Norton Rose] have quite good experience in outsourcing, so we worked very well together on that."
The deal, which completed last month, enabled Mellon to take on the investment administration for all of F&C's institutional business as well as the employment of 93 of F&C's back office staff. The outsourcing mandate will cover pan-European-based fund administration, trade communication, reconciliation, data services and information delivery. The utilisation of a new multimillion-pound technology platform will form the basis of a new European business initiative for Mellon.
"Mellon wanted to get into that marketplace and we had some intellectual property that would enable them to hit the ground running," says Switalski. "But in return we're expecting investment from Mellon. It's what you'd probably call a symbiotic relationship. We knew where we wanted to get to and we thought we'd get there quicker with Mellon's support."
F&C is now undertaking a similar project in the Netherlands with Switalski leading the legal team.
In addition to Norton Rose, F&C also has relationships with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and Simmons & Simmons, which advise the fund manager on Dutch and emerging markets issues respectively.
Meanwhile, McDermott Will & Emery handles HR matters. "The relationship with McDermott is working really well, so there's no need to change it," states Switalski.
However, her preference is to instruct the bar because it is cheaper. Switalski does not favour any particular barrister or chambers, although she rates David Pannick QC of Blackstone Chambers. "My utter favourite in a crisis is David Pannick. He's fantastic," she gushes.
Switalski also admires Norton Rose corporate finance partner Robin Brooks. "Someone like Robin is also fantastic, because I can pick up the phone to talk about an issue and the meter won't always be ticking," she says.
Switalski has had a colourful legal career, which began at the Crown Prosecution Service. In 1988 she moved into the corporate arena and soon became Sony's first female general manager. Then, after a stint at international management consultancy Proud-foot, she took on the role of director of corporate services for National Lottery organiser Camelot. Following that, Switalski advised a number of internet start-ups.
On top of all this, three years ago Switalski founded Legalpulse, an online service designed to deliver cost-effective legal advice and plain English documents.
That CV reflects the confidence Switalski exudes that has helped her turn around the balance of the legal work at F&C.

Friends Laura and Erik, someone's rooftop in NYC, taken by me.
A few weeks ago, or something, I have no concept of time, I asked you to send me your BEST DATE EVER stories. And by golly, you sure did! I loved reading them. Here are some, edited for length. I got too many to fit into one post! But one great story included a first date that ended in the hospital because the guy hurt his balls.
Now I want to hear about your WORST DATES EVER. Send them to me at formspring.com/apocalypstick and try to keep them short. You can leave your name if you want to. But for now, here are the best dates ever:
Three weeks after meeting each other (while very intoxicated on his birthday) we went on a road trip from Colorado to Las Vegas. We also died half a dozen times on the way there because we were driving his dad's Mustang convertible in the end of December at 2:30am through Utah. We had to get pulled out of a ditch by a truck and thought we were going to be murdered.
Somehow after only hanging out about four or five times before this, we ended up becoming extremely close in three days. We had about 12 hours in Vegas. A two day trip turned into five when a freak snowstorm hit along route-66 on the way home. Not to diss Arizonans, but people on the local news in Arizona acted like they didn't know what snow was. We spent New Years Eve 2011 at a motel in Las Vegas, New Mexico. NEW MEXICO! LV, NM – that's a real place! It actually ended up being the best NYE I've ever had. We drank cheap champagne, watched Ryan Seacrest, and snuck into the motel pool. — Lauren.
My Boyfriend and I started dating in college. Since we were both poor we made the mutual decision that Valentine's Day was not such a big deal.
A few years after I had graduated on Valentine's Day I would make the trek back to campus after work and my boyfriend would come pic me up at the train station. One year, he surprised me by bring two of his fraternity brothers who I absolutely adored. While most girls might be annoyed by their boyfriends bring others along I was giddy. We made the decision to grab some White Castle to take back to the dorm with us.
When we got there, we realized that White Castle was doing there Valentine's Day promotion, where they had table side service. Clearly we HAD to partake in this. So we had a sit down dinner, complete with candles and table cloths at White Castle. Afterwards, we headed back to campus where a bunch of others joined the four of us to watch the Evil Dead Trilogy.
So really, Best. Date. Ever. — Eileen.
I once went on a date with a girl that ended with us going back to her place to start an online petition for Trident to bring back their Strawberry Breeze flavor of gum. — Tony.
I met him on OkCupid (whoops) and it was my first date after moving to New York City. We met at a coffee shop where I spent the entire first 20 minutes of our date trying to use the bathroom but getting cut off by other patrons.
Then he took me to McSorley's, one of his favorite "New York" places. For me, it was pretty dreamy. New York's oldest Irish, no-nonsense, beers only bar? Perfect.
We bonded over fancy hot dogs and talked sports before happening upon a flea market, which reminded him to take me to the best part of our date…a creepy antique store that specializes in taxidermy!
It was amazing. I'm not big on purposefully weirdo dates, but it just happened we were close and it was so organic and seemed fun, why not? — Katie.
My best date was actually a first date I had with a gal I saw for a short while.
We went to go see Tilly and the Wall open for Of Montreal here in Austin. The venue had seats on the sides which we sat on and played tic-tac-toe between sets. After the awesome show ended at 2am, we went to a 24 hour, local diner. The clincher was when we went to her college radio show (it aired Satudays from 5am – 7am), and I got to guest DJ and play my favourite indie songs. Some of my friends woke up or stayed up late to listen to the show which was pretty cool. — D.
Went up in a tiny two-seater red piper cub airplane over the coast of Half Moon Bay. I did an effing barrel roll over the ocean. AMAZING. — Amber.
For my 1 month anniversary with my now fiance, my fiance had only a bit of money and was living in a dorm room at the time.
So he went to a thai food place (cause I love thai food), and bought all the chicken stuff on the menu (cause I only eat poultry and fish), and brought it back to his dorm room. When I got there he had a dresser with a sheet on it. Candles he borrowed from girls down the hall, a buffet of thai chicken dishes, and an arrowhead water jug filled with strawberry soda (my favorite) in the water dispenser. Ooh!! And Air was playing. It didn't cost him anymore than what he payed for the food and soda…but it was the best date I've ever been on for sure!! — Tawnie.
My brother moved to Amsterdam at the beginning of this year and I arranged to go and stay with him for a few days. This Guy happened to be touring europe at the same time… and would also be staying in Amsterdam for 2 weeks. I figured since my brother would be working during the day, I would go and do some sightseeing with This Guy.
Within 5 minutes of meeting, we decided to rent bikes. Obviously. It's Amsterdam.
I had no idea where we were cycling to, but as always, he knew where he was going as he has an awesome sense of direction. He found our way to Vondelpark. We cycled around with commuters, teenagers and the woman cycling whilst her beagle ran beside her with a funny leg.
After the park, we got take out soup and bread, cycled to a canal and found somewhere to eat by the water.
"In the throes of passion!" he shouted, and dramatically kissed me as tourists floated by on boats and took our picture, 'cause we looked fucking adorable.
After, we cycled to the Bloemenmarkt (flower market) which also happened to be in one of the most tourist-ridden areas. We took pictures of sex toys in shop windows. I searched for respectable souvenirs. We walked up and down the Red Light District, imitating the girls' dances in the windows.
We cycled back to his hotel, then hung out for the rest of the day.
It was the best date because it was so abnormal. We were both in an unknown country. In one of the best cities in the world. On one of the best days of the year. Cycling. Canals. Parks. Prostitutes. — Anon.

Here are some picturs from the Cruise 2008
More Pictures.
And... SJP with the new Cruise 2008 bag. This bag is the Hollywood collection.
Is she at the set shooting Sex and the City, the movie?? Anyone knows when the film is going to release?
She looks amazing with the bag!
Early reports are May 2008 in the States for the SATC movie release. I may well have combusted by then
Is the SJP Hollywood bag, Lambskin?? or metal mesh. It is so hard to tell from the pics!
Thanks for the pics
SA said it's perfo on the top layer (but not sure what material) and lambskin underneath. Hope that made sense.
Thanks for the pix. They are shooting the Sex in the City movie in NY right now. Everyday they leak scenes from the movie in the papers.
^ wow! how much does that cost? i am eyeing on the exact bag carried by SJP!
I think the flap Charlotte is carrying is the one Larkie and I saw at the SCP trunk show. It has pearls around the edges.
Can't wait to see that movie...miss that show, soooo much.
Charlotte's bag is really nice, with the pearls around it. I wonder what the retail on it is.
wow, thanks for posting!
Thanks for sharing...
can't wait to see the movie too!
anyone have pics of the melrose line? heard it's distressed fabric?

so i made another one today and wrote this tute. i dont know how helpful it is i might make another tute for a different style when i make a swimsuit for my sister. so here it is:
1) gather your materials. some dance/swim fabric (usually a nylon/lycra blend), braided elastic that's suitable for swimwear, elastic thread, some newspaper/paper for cutting out a pattern, swimsuit hook, swimsuit padding. i didn't buy any lining fabric so i just used the same fabric as lining too.
2)create your pattern. take a swimsuit or underwear and trace to create a pattern. if you're using a swimsuit you'll probably have to stretch it out to get to the actual fabric size. if working alone, you feet are very useful for holding everything in place to do the tracing.
3) take the front bottom piece and trace it again on paper. on your body, measure from where the waistband begins to under your bust to get an approximate length and then draw out the additional portion in whatever style you want at approximately that length.
4) trace the pattern onto the fabric (i used a highlighter). then cut out adding about 1/2" allowance around the edges.
5) sew the crotch seam together of the outer fabric and lining. i used a straight stitch reinforced w/ zig-zag.
6) take both layers and pin them together so the seam is hidden.
7) the line you traced onto the fabric should still be visible. using zig-zag stitch and slightly pulling as you go, sew elastic just outside of that traced line. trim the excess fabric along the edges.
8) cutout the pieces for the top and repeat steps 6 and 7.
9) now put elastic thread in the bobbin (look up how to shirr if you don't know what to do). fold the elastic/edge over and top stitch over the edges.
10) create the strings by cutting ~1" strips and pulling them until they curl and tying knots at the end. fold the inner edge of the top piece over, encase the string and zig-zag stitch down. (i ran out of fabric here and had to go buy another 2" to make the strings..i used the string from another swimsuit as a place holder) try it on and figure out where the hook should be and sew that on.
11) cut a little hole in the lining of the top and stuff the padding in. **note: i also added boning on the side seams (where the front and back of the top connect) to help the top hold it's shape.
12) sew the sides of the bottom encasing the bottom strings. (sorry don't know how to explain this - just make sure the string can still slide through)
13) try both pieces on and stretch the center piece up until it fits well. attach the bottom piece to the top piece by folding it over and encasing the string and zig-zag stitching it down. (the back hook isn't sewn in yet in this picture because i forgot to buy one but it should be sewn in step 10)
voila! i think i might go back and un-stitch the top and put an o-ring in like w/ the first swimsuit. using just the string seems a bit insecure
here's a rough post it note sketch of how to make the black swimsuit:
going from top left --> bottom left --> top right --> bottom right:
1) a. draw a "triangle" top w/ the curved bottom (there are tuts for this if you look up diy bikini on google). then add a little extra on the sides for a little extra coverage.
b. cut out a strip that's about 3-4" wide.
c. make 4 strings (described in step 10 above)
2) a. after attaching the elastic and top stitching the edges (excluding the bottom curved edge) of the triangles [[steps 6,7,9]], baste along the bottom curved edge. pull one of the strands of thread to gather it and tie the thread in knots at the end to hold the gather in place.
b. fold the strip in half and sew it into a tube w/ straight stitch and reinforze w/ zig zag. then turn the tube inside out. (this piece will now be called the "band")
c. using a zig-zag stitch, top stitch the band over the triangle pieces at the top edge of the band.
3) attach the strings w/ a zig zag stitch. (the tops of the triangles should have a small opening so you can slip the string in between the lining and outer fabric) when you sew the strings to the band, slip the string into the ends of the tubes and then fold over so it's even.
4) attach the bottom piece to the top w/ a zig-zag top stitch. to make sure it was secure i top stitched it to the top of the band and bottom of the band.
hope that made sense! feel free to ask questions if you need clarification!

RIVERBANKS ZOO (WJBF) – Are you looking for a wild way to start your day? It's Wild Encounters where we go behind the scenes at Riverbanks Zoo giving you a great look at some of the cool things the animals do, what the zookeepers do and give you some unique looks which you wouldn't normally see.
So we're starting off with one of their newest exhibits, maybe you haven't seen it yet. It's the seals and sea lions.
Alyson tells us a little bit about seals and sea lions.
"Well, we actually have five California sea lions, four of those are male, one is female. And then we have one harbor seal, so he's our lone wolf but he definitely runs the pool."
Alright, so tell us, I guess, the different between the seals and the sea lions.
"So, the seal is smaller. They kind of max out at two to three hundred pounds. The sea lions can get anywhere up to eight hundred pounds or so. Our largest right now is Baja. He's our full grown. He's fourteen years old but he weighs probably about five hundred and sixty pounds."
So that's a…that's a pretty big animal, so a lot goes into feeding them, so how much about do they eat every day then?
"Well, Baja, he currently gets thirty two pounds of food. Anywhere under that, Gambit only gets about seven, that's our seal, so it's a range from there but we actually do have to adjust their food on a regular basis because they can gain weight so quickly and lose weight so quickly that we're constantly getting weights on them and constantly changing what their diet is."
Alright, so we have some of this food here right behind us so explain to us what we have here in the buckets for them that they eat every day.
"So this is actually their morning training food, so there's more food in our fridges back here, so this is an example of what they would get for their morning training sessions. So we have three types of fish here. We have capelin, we have squid and we have cut herring."
And we were talking earlier before we started filming, some of them have squid in here and some don't and it's not for something specific other than some of them just don't like squid.
"Yes, sometimes a mammal just doesn't really care for a type of fish and that's ok. We just work around it."
Right, so, I mean, it's just like people. It's not like you just throw out the same food and they're all ok with it. Some of them have particular taste so we make sure they avoid that. And also, we have some vitamins back here for them as well. What are we looking at?
"Yep, so back here, they need supplements just like we do. They don't necessarily eat all the fish that they would in the wild so we have a couple different types of vitamins that we give them. There's vitamin E. There's vitamin B. And then over here, these blue ones are actually just called Sea Tabs."
We're learning about what they're eating but with seals and sea lions, they're intelligent animals. They can do some cool stuff. They're fun to watch, so of course, we're going to see some of that training coming up.
In the next edition of Wild Encounters two weeks from now, we'll have a look at their training. We'll see them in action and give you an idea of what when you come to Riverbanks Zoo, you can see.

7 Ways to Improve Your Sleep
Edited By: Stephanie Dawson
• Make your bedroom a haven
As much as possible keep everyday chaos away from your bedroom. Keeping the lighting warm and intimate while using comfortable bed sheets is essential to make your bedroom appropriate for sleeping.
• Proper dressing
When you are going to sleep, it is important to not wear tight clothing. Take out any pins or hair pieces and put on loose clothes. Cotton pyjamas or shorts are recommended. The clothes that you wear at night should be properly washed and should not have any unpleasant smell.
• Listen to good music
Before going to bed you can listen to some nice soothing music. Doing so relaxes the mind and takes you away from the entire day's stress. Playing rock music or heavy metal is not advised as it might not lead you to sleep.
• Take a bath
Taking a relaxing warm water bath is a good thing to do before you go to sleep. It leaves you feeling clean and relaxed. Studies have shown that taking a bath provides you at least three hours of good rest with slower movements than without the bath.
• Don't drink and sleep
You should not drink anything just before going to sleep. At the same time you should ensure that you do drink at least 2 litres of water during the day. A well hydrated body will not let thirst interrupt your sleep, however if you drink a glass of water just before you go to sleep, you might have to get up to relieve yourself.
• Stick to a sleep schedule
You should go to sleep and wake up everyday at the same time with weekends being no exception. Avoiding changes to your sleep schedule enhances your sleep-wake cycle and helps in getting a more sound sleep.
• Limit day time naps
Long naps during the day should be avoided. If it is important to nap during the day, try to limit to 10-30 minutes. Also lack of physical activity during the day time acts as a detractor of a sound night sleep.

Frogmore Creek
20 Denholms Rd.
Cambridge, Tasmania
Tasmania is home to some of Australia's best wines, and those from Frogmore Creek are no exception. On the outskirts of Hobart, this family-run vineyard produces "cool climate wines," thanks to Tasmania's chilly, ocean-whipped location. Grapes here are slow to ripen, making for bolder flavors—particularly the Pinot Noir and Rieslings, both of which are smooth, complex and not without their charms. The property's restaurant pairs dishes from the sea, land, and garden (the calamari tempura and carpaccio of Hunter Valley wagyu beef with truffle mayonnaise are particular highlights) with the property's excellent wines, and they run a Cellar Club, too—open to anyone who'd like to receive discounted wines throughout the year.

With the "iPhone 6" event on the horizon, Tuesday September 9th, rumor season is in full effect.
This time around 2 "dummy" or "clone" units have been floating around the internet revealing more potential information than ever, creating a highly detailed set of rumors, concepts and mockups (Yes, even iPhone 6 scratch tests are appearing on youtube already).
Basically we are looking at a 5.5inch iPhone Air (Probably not the real name, most likely iPhone 6L, iPhone 6X, or other number, letter combination – iPad Micro?). We will also be looking at what will be considered the standard offering, iPhone 6 with a 4.7inch screen.
If you prefer the now "classic" 4inch display, you'll probably still be able to go for the 5s or the 5c offerings, then most likely bumping off the 4S.
PhoneDog has the scoop on the 2 iphone brothers (or sisters) and separating the good leads from the light speculation when it comes to specs and features.
And that's not all, more iPhone Specumania!

Robert Pinksy, writing at Slate, reintroduces us to John Wilson Croker and John Gibson Lockhart, two critics who hated John Keats. Croker loathed Keats so badly that he's most remembered for this review, and that's something, given that he also may have invented the term "conservative."

Yet another thing that would be nice if Magento allowed you to import through the admin interface. But, at least there is the API to utilize, and fortunately importing Tier Pricing for products is quite easy. I will provide you with a script and CSV format to get started quickly.
Important Note: Be sure that wherever you are running the script, you have SOAP installed/enabled. You can run it from anywhere that has it, as you are providing the script with a URL of a Magento installation. If your server doesn't have it, you can install PHP and SOAP on your local machine and run it off of there if you'd like.
First thing you are going to need to do, if you haven't done it already, is to setup an API user in your installation of Magento. Go to System >> Web Services >> Users and setup an account. Be sure that the role you give that user has access to tier pricing.
Next, create a PHP file where ever you want. I chose to put it in /api-scripts/ and I called it "tier-pricing-import.php". Be sure to replace the four values I've highlighted with your own values:
<?php error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors', '1'); $proxy = new SoapClient('http://[YOUR-WEBSITE-URL]/api/soap/?wsdl'); $sessionId = $proxy->login('[YOUR-WEBSERVICE-USERNAME]', '[YOUR-WEBSERVICE-PASSWORD]'); $row = 1; $handle = fopen('[YOUR-CSV-FILENAME].csv', 'r'); while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 30, ',')) !== false) { if ($row != 1) { $tierPrices = ''; $sku = $data[2]; $tierPrices[] = array( 'website' => $data[0], 'customer_group_id' => $data[1], 'qty' => $data[3], 'price' => $data[4] ); try { $proxy->call($sessionId, 'product_tier_price.update', array($sku, $tierPrices)); } catch (Exception $e) { $errors .= 'Error for SKU ' . $sku . ': ' . $e->getMessage() . "\n"; } } $row++; }
Finally, create your CSV. You'll want 5 columns:
- website_id: Integer value for your website id. Use 'all' for all websites
- cust_group: Integer value for the customer group it will be applied to. Use 'all' to apply it to all groups
- sku: The product sku that the tier pricing will be applied to
- price_qty: The quantity the price is applied to (x and above)
- price: The price
Be sure to include the header row. Here is an example of how the csv should look:
Just include the csv in the same directory as your php file, then in your browser, type in the URL of the php file and run it. It will import your tier pricing very quickly. I haven't built in any sort of messages that let you know when it's done, or if there were any errors or anything. This is as bare-bones as it gets, but it works as needed. I hope you find it useful.

|Lamp, Camphene
|1840 to 1865
|This lamp has a double wick fixture made of tin, with the characteristically splayed camphene wick holders. It even holds its own wick covers to keep fuel from evaporating. The fixture is fitted onto a pressed glass bulbous reservoir which ends in a square peg. The peg would have fit into a wooden base.
|Camphene, a combination mineral spirits and alcohol was used as a lamp fuel for a short time in the middle of the 19th century. Because whale oil was so expensive camphene was used as a replacement. Camphene was extremely volatile. If the flame from one wick heated the other wick the heat could travel back into the reservoir and explode. Thus, camphene lamps have either single wicks, or double wicks pointed away from one another. The bottom part of this lamp is a typical whale-oil lamp. It is likely that the owners of this lamp took their pressed glass lamp and adapted it to the latest technology, transforming it with a different metal cap from whale oil to camphene.

Welcome to: Take On Life
Deborah Wittig
Whole Life Coach
Motivational Speaker
Radio Host
Many times we feel that life is happening TO us, as if we have little say about our circumstances. The truth is, we DO have control over what happens in much of our lives. In circumstances we cannot control, we CAN control how we respond. We can choose to dull our pain through various addictions and disengage ourselves from life, OR, we can face the pain of change and move forward into an intentional, fully engaged life. A life fully engaged is a full and purposeful life. Let me show you how to Waken the Warrior Within, leave passivity behind, and Take On Life?


text: Frank, something in your description of the problem makes me wonder if you are having an electrical problem and not one of fuel starvation. You indicate the tach will go quickly to zero, I realize you are not saying that as a measured event but essentially mean 'very quickly.' But if you just turn off the ignition of an engine turning at 4k it will take a second or two to spool down, certainly not 1/4 of a second. But just for grins, thoroughly lube your ignition switch and see if it makes a difference. WD40 is fine. Would also be instructive to examine the fuel pressures coming out of the distributor. Know anybody that has a gauge set? Tape the gauge to the outside of the windshield and go for a drive while looking a the pressures of any one of the injector lines. If the distributor is clogged then you could see erratic and rapidly changing pressures. I assume you've changed the fuel filter recently. Seems to me that the fuel pump inlet screen and the fuel filter all would see clogging before the distributor.

Step by step instructions for building a lizard incubator like mine. My lizard incubators have a temperature variance of +/- one tenth of a degree f at all locations throughout the interior of the incubator. And temperature fluctuation is also 1/10th of a degree during incubation. The controller can be programmed for a night temperature drop, and has safety measures in place should things malfunction to help protect the eggs within the incubator itself.
The past few days I've had some veiled chameleon babies hatching out. I thought I'd celebrate the arrival of these little ones after the long wait by posting a few photos this week!

Album News!
I just completed a compilation CD project called Thistle Through Time: Chartering the Years 1999-2015. See "Buy Stuff" tab to see the album cover designed by Ralph Shively of Lakeside Press!
I will send you a copy of my 2012 release Through a Window, if you send me a check for $10 or well concealed cash to: Thistle c/o Rainbow Bookstore Cooperative, 426 W. Gilman St. Madison, WI 53703. Make the check out to Kristine Pettersen.
It is also available in Madson at:
Rainbow Bookstore Cooperative, 426 W. Gilman St.
Lakeside Press, 1334 Williamson Street.
Amsterdam, 917 Williamson Street.
Through a Window, was recorded at Dacha Studio and came out in April, 2012! It features the bright talents of Page Foster and Jackie Wochos on harmony vocals, Celeste Abril Ixchel on musical saw, Ben Willis on upright bass, Scott Caldwell on drums and the spectacular playing of Marissa Reinholz on viola. The cover art and design (pictured below) is by Tyler Norman.
Click on the "thistle and thorns" tab above to learn about my band and our tour of the Midwest during Earth Week this spring, April 11th – 27th with the Beehive Collective!
Warm, lush and sometimes haunting sounds surround the songwriting and solo voice in this recording. With the contributions of so many talented musicians, it is a solid rock gem that will last through time. Please consider a donation to my kickstarter campaign to help it take material form for our Earth Week tour coming up! The kickstarter campaign is a way to pre-order the album, to make sure you get a copy, and help get it out there into the world as well.
I have a studio-recorded album with awesome art by Kat Beyer from 2008. Several Madison musicians contribute to the album and it sounds amazing due to the engineering and production talents of Matthew Sanborn. Click on this box to buy Animal Dreams!

Chapter 12. Sample Surveys. Vocabulary. Population- all exp. units that you want to make a conclusion about Sampling frame – list of individuals from whom the sample is drawn. Not always the population of interest. Sample- small group of the population that you do an experiment/study on.

Sample Surveys
-Describes the population
-Fixed Value
-Often Unknown
-Describes the sample of a population
-Changes from sample to sample
-Use repeated samples/experiments to estimate the value of the parameter
Sample is said to be representative if the statistics accurately reflect the population parameters
A polling agency takes a sample of 1500 American citizens from a list of tax returns and asks them if they are lactose intolerant. 12% say yes. This is interesting, since it has been shown that 15% of the population is lactose intolerant.
12% = _________ 15% = __________

A random sample of 1000 people who signed a card saying they intended to quit smoking were contacted a year after they signed the card. It turned out that 210 (21%) of the sampled individuals had not smoked over the past six months.

On Tuesday, the bottles of tomato ketchup filled in a plant were supposed to contain an average of 14 ounces of ketchup. Quality control inspectors sampled 50 bottles at random from the day's production. These bottles contained an average of 13.8 ounces of ketchup.

A researcher wants to find out which of two pain relievers works better. He takes 100 volunteers and randomly gives half of them medicine #1 and the other half medicine #2. 17% of people taking medicine 1 report improvement in their pain and 20% of people taking medicine #2 report improvement in their pain.
17% = _________ 20% = __________
Population? Sampling frame? Sample?
Bias VS. Variability:
* Bias- consistent, repeated measurements that are not close to the population parameter
* Variability- basically like reliability
* We want to keep both of these low!
* To reduce bias… use random sampling
* To reduce variability… use larger samples!
* Different samples give us different results
* Different size samples give us different results
* Bigger samples are better!!
* Sampling distribution: If we take lots of samples of the same size and make a graph
True parameter
* Variability = spread/width of graph
Larger samples give smaller variability:
Lots of samples of size 100
Lots of samples of size 1000
True parameter

Label each as high or low for bias and variability

Another vocab word…
- When the center of a sampling distribution (histogram) is equal to the true parameter.
True parameter
1) Simple Random Sample (SRS) - Every experimental unit has the same chance of being picked for the sample and every possible sample has the same chance of being selected
Take an SRS of 5 from the following list. Start at line 31 in the table.
Smith Jones Holloway
DeNizzo David Adams
Schaefer Gray Capito
Meyers Gingrich Card
Dietrich Moreland Hall
Walsh Whitter Jordan
Take an SRS of 4 from the following list. Start at line 18 in the table.
McGlone McCuen Wilson
Szarko Bellavance Woodring
Stotler Kelly Wheeles
Timmins Arden McNelis
Gemgnani O'Brien Robinson
Lorenz Lake Bainbridge
(NOT simple random sample)
2) Take separate SRS in each strata and combine these to make the full sample
- can sometimes be a % of each strata
We want to take an accurate sample of CB South students. There are 540 sophomores, 585 juniors, and 530 seniors. Take a stratified random sample.
3) Systematic Random Sample – The members of a population are ordered in some manner. The first member is selected at random. Each additional member is selected at a predetermined interval.
Cluster Sample – Population is broken into groups. All members in one or more groups are taken as the sample.
- Within each part of that sample, take another sample
- Within each part of that sample, take another sample
The government wants to survey the entire population. However they cannot just give every person a number and do an SRS. So they follow this process:
* Randomly select 5 counties from each state
* In each of those counties, randomly select 6 towns/cities
* In each town/city, randomly select 4 streets
* On each street, select 3 houses, and interview the head of the household.
We need to survey a random sample of 30 passengers on a flight from San Francisco to Tokyo. Name each sampling method described below:
