OLCC All-Ages Vote Thursday Morning
04:04AM on Tuesday December 11, 2007
This is it! The exciting conclusion to our all-ages reform campaign! Show up to the OLCC vote Thursday and make your support for all-ages music known!
The OLCC commissioners will be convening at 9am on Thursday, December 13 to vote on the proposed changes to the Minor Postings rules. The vote is open to the public and will take place at OLCC Headquarters (9079 SE McLoughlin Blvd. Portland, OR 97222-7355).
If you need a ride to the vote, a carpool will be meeting and leaving at 8:30am at the Musicians Union (325 NE 20th Portland, OR 97232). We would love to have a strong showing to demonstrate our enthusiasm and support for these changes.
If approved, these changes will make more all-ages music venues in Oregon viable by allowing minors and alcohol in the same establishment, provided proper control and regulation are in place to keep liquor out of kids' hands. This would have a profoundly positive effect on all aspects of our state's youth and music communities.
Let's fix this nonsense together!
Thursday, December 13

DEADLINE: OLCC All-Ages Reform
02:02AM on Monday November 12, 2007
Just a reminder that Tuesday, November 13 at 5pm is the deadline for submitting feedback to the OLCC about their proposed rule changes that would allow music venues and other art spaces to admit minors and still sell alcohol (i.e. stay in business). Send your emails in support of the changes to: email@example.com
For more information on this issue, or to see a sample email, check out www.pdxpopnow.com/olcc
Opening more music and cultural events to people under 21 is the right thing to do for young people, local musicians, venues, and our community as a whole.
These emails will play an absolutely critical role in the OLCC's ultimate decision to adopt or reject the proposed changes, so take a minute to write in today.
Additionally, in an effort to provide the young people of Portland with an opportunity to speak for themselves on this matter, the Multnomah Youth Commission is holding a public forum to accept testimony on the proposed OLCC changes
from 4-5:30pm
on Monday, November 12
at Portland City Hall in Council Chambers (1221 SW 4th Ave.).
All are welcome to attend, but priority will be given to those under 21.
Spread the word!
Support The OLCC's All-Ages Music Reforms
03:15PM on Friday October 26, 2007
The Oregon Liquor Control Commission is currently considering making changes to its rules that would allow music venues and other art spaces to both admit minors and sell alcohol. This would greatly increase access to live music for people under 21—a tremendously positive development for Oregon's music communities, benefitting kids, bands, businesses and the public welfare alike.
Take a minute to send an email to the OLCC before November 13 expressing your support for these rule changes. All the info you need – as well as our sample email – is at our website's new OLCC page.
Let's take a stand for all-ages music in Oregon!

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Eight years ago, Hurricane Katrina and massive flooding spurred by broken levees heavily damaged the historic Saenger Theatre.
On Friday, the theatre reopened for business following a $52 million renovation that restored the 86-year-old ornate movie theatre into what now hosts stage productions and live music concerts.
Mayor Mitch Landrieu, elected officials and investors who partnered to bring the restoration to fruition stood on the newly renovated stage to celebrate the theatre's formal reopening. A sold-out performance by comedian Jerry Seinfeld later Friday will mark the theatre's return. Two more shows by Seinfeld are scheduled Saturday.
Landrieu and others used words like "wow," ''breathtaking," ''amazing" and "beautiful" to describe the Saenger's transformation. Designers returned the theatre to its 1927 grandeur with a historically replicated carpet, original and replicated chandeliers, and a historically accurate paint scheme.
Improvements also include technical upgrades, including new fiber optic stars in the auditorium, expanded restrooms and concession facilities. The theatre used to seat about 4,000 but now seats about 2,600, giving patrons more room and comfort, officials said.
Landrieu said the theater, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is the city's best symbol of resurrection and resilience.
"This is just a spectacular moment for all of us," Landrieu said. "We don't want to be like Atlanta, New York and D.C. We want to take the old and the new and create that authentic New Orleans that can't be replicated anywhere else in the world. And we've done that. I encourage you to use it and enjoy it."
David Rubenstein, chairman of the Canal Street Development Corporation, said the theatre is another step in the revitalization of the Canal Street corridor.
"This is just another reason to come and spend the weekend in New Orleans," he said.
Former Mayor Moon Landrieu, the current mayor's father, recalled the first time he saw a movie at the Saenger.
"I remember looking at the ceiling, seeing the 'stars' (twinkling lights in the ceiling) and wondering if I was looking at the sky. I was so excited to be here. When I look at all the statuary in here ... they've restored everything exactly as my old memories tell me," he said.
Rick Isley, a New Orleans native and singer who dropped by to see the changes, said the facility is still as luxurious as he remembers. "It's just beautiful," he said. "This is where I first saw 'Enter the Dragon,' back in the 1970s. Now look at it."
City Council President Jackie Clarkson recalled entering the theatre on her 5th birthday "before World War II."
"This is the greatest comeback of all led by this administration," Clarkson said. "The memories it springs are so generational. Everybody still alive in this city can still remember the first time they walked into this gorgeous theatre."
Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge Morrell said her now-husband took her to see "The Sound of Music" on their first date some 48 years ago. "It looks the same," she said, smiling.
She said she hoped the theatre would "further open up jobs for the city's residents."
"I'm thinking in terms of behind the scenes," she said. "Those doing the props for the productions, the caterers. I'm hoping the cultural economy will steer jobs to our citizenry so that this city becomes one where everyone can get a 'good' job."
Other upcoming theatre highlights include an Oct. 5 performance by actress Kristin Chenoweth and the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, a show by singer Diana Ross on Oct. 30 and the return of Broadway to New Orleans with the Tony Award-winning play The Book of Mormon on Oct. 15.

Difference between revisions of "Wikitravel talk:Business listings reliability Expedition"
Revision as of 21:27, 30 August 2011
Starting out
Per Denis' I took a stab at expanding this. It seems like there might be two good ways to get this going:
To the second point, a couple ideas that occurred to me are making article status more prominent (perhaps revisiting Template:Title-icons and doing a bit more with those) and possibly implementing icons that could be added to listings such that a rollover would show users who "verified"/"endorsed" the listing and when they did so, for example:
The "verified"/"endorsed" icon would obviously benefit greatly from using a template, should probably use something other than a star, and ideally should change the image depending on the number and freshness of the people verifying/endorsing. -- Ryan • (talk) • 20:49, 24 August 2011 (EDT)
(Re-indenting) To summarize where this discussion stands so far, there seem to be three proposals:
Any other suggestions? Is there enough interest to start figuring out details of the above three and to then see if there is enough support to actually start moving ahead with them? -- Ryan • (talk) • 20:35, 29 August 2011 (EDT)
Who posted the listing
I would like to argue that any listing using "we" or "our" should be not edited but summarily deleted, as obviously self-interested and, therefore, unreliable. Like any other rule, this would be subject to exceptions on a case-by-case basis, but I think that whenever it's obvious a listing was posted by a self-interested person, whether because it's 100% obvious it's touting ("well-appointed rooms," et al.) or because "we" or "our" was used, unless other, non-interested people can vouch for the place, it should not be listed - and I mean probably never listed. Ikan Kekek 23:05, 24 August 2011 (EDT)
Here's the problem: Unless someone without financial interest in a business can vouch for its being a good one, there is good reason to distrust self-interested listings, even if detouted in style by a subsequent editor. What is your solution in the very numerous cases that an administrator has no knowledge of the establishment other than an obviously self-interested listing? I can detout, but I still don't trust the detouted listing if I am personally unfamiliar with the establishment. Ikan Kekek 02:14, 27 August 2011 (EDT)

My husband arrived shortly after my discovery of the reason why I have had so much trouble sleeping the last few nights. See my last post. I wasn't doing well. I could tell I was being pulled into the past..into last year. My husband, of course, was so excited to see me and it took everything for me to get a smile out. Finally, I just told him that I couldn't do this and that I wasn't doing well. He was put off by it and said, "I understand you don't want to be around me right now." But that wasn't it, I did want to be around him. I couldn't deal with this on my own. He ended up holding me as I cried like a little baby saying how I don't know how I got through last year…I just don't know. I must have been someone else, that was the only way I did it. That I couldn't go through the same thing again…I just couldn't. He comforted me and then I had a realization.
It's interesting how I realized what I have been internally upset about all week right before he got home. Almost as if my subconscious was protecting me… it wouldn't let me see what I was struggling with until I had someone who could take care of me. It knew that the pain would I bear would be too much on my own. Maybe it also wanted to show me that even though my husband was the one person who couldn't console me before…may be the one person that I really need now. Is it possible that the one person who hurt me so much be the one person who can heal me?

Of course he's the one who can help heal you. While I firmly believe that we heal ourselves, my cheater husband and I are developing the tools we need to get through this living hell. Seven months after discovery and after thirty years of marriage, we are finally learning how to communicate honestly, caringly and whole-heartedly. Most importantly, we are learning how to argue constructively. We are mourning the death of our previous marriage and anticipating a much better future because of the lessons we have learned.ReplyDelete
I am sad that you felt that way last night but happy he was able to help make it better. Does that make sense? ::hugs:: and I hope the insomnia and other symptoms begin to subside now <3ReplyDelete

WAVELAND, MS (WLOX) - When Hurricane Katrina struck on August 29, 2005, the world of Waveland first responders was turned upside down. As the fifth anniversary nears, they gather at the trailer that serves as the fire station to collect their thoughts and share their memories of that awful day. The memories are painful and bring out the raw emotion of that moment in time.
Lt. Mac Cowand is a police officer, and he remembers how he felt.
"Helpless, and you're looking for help. We were lucky," Cowand said. "We had people from Florida come in who had been through it. Three or four days later, we had Orange County, Polk County and they really helped us out."
In an ironic twist of fate, first responders like Assistant Fire Chief Mike Smith almost became victims themselves.
"When the water came in the fire station and started coming up the hallway, that was very unique and so at that point, it was just survival honestly," Smith said. "We went from being a rescuer to almost needing rescue."
Cowand said it was very frustrating for the men and women who were so used to helping those in need.
"You have no patrol car, no cell phones, no communication whatsoever with the outside world. You have no way to get around and do anything for anybody because everything is completely inundated."
But Smith said they managed to get out and walk through what was left of the city, and offer what little aid and comfort they could.
"And I remember the morning after walking down Gulfside and I was walking over trees and through the debris and people were emerging from their homes that morning and it was like, I related to the after effects of a bomb dropping. People walking out, they looked dazed and confused and everybody looked like that."
But even in the midst of all that misery, the presence of the first responders stood out.
"Just to see us, I think made it a lot better for the citizens because they knew that not everything was gone," Fire Captain Tony Mallini remembered. "They were just happy to see somebody else."
Standing and walking along the still desolate parts of the Waveland beachfront, it brings to mind the incredible sacrifices made by the first responders. Those sacrifices did not go unnoticed by the public in the days and weeks after the storm. There was a sense of real gratitude for what they brought to the table.
Howard Parker, a detective with the police department, recalled the tears of joy from desperate citizens.
"Some people would cry and they would just thank you. Something as simple as a bag of ice meant the world to some of the people after the hurricane," Parker said. "They would show emotion and break down and cry and let you know they appreciated what you were trying to do, and let you know that they were thinking about us and were wishing they could give something back to help us at that time."
The final death toll in Hancock County was 56. Despite the danger, and their own losses, every first responder told us they wouldn't think twice about doing it all over again if another Katrina should ever strike the coast.

With Spring just around the corner, the itch to get outdoors is growing stronger day by day. It's easy to imagine how the grapevines must be feeling 'round about now... ready to burst forth and get busy bathing their buds in that sunshine.
Napa offers SO many great attractions the year round, but two of their outstanding events happen in March and April every year.
The first, Taste of Yountville, has been occurring annually for the past 20 years. With more excellent restaurants per capita than just about anywhere else on the planet, tiny Yountville really has something to offer... and boast about.
Better yet, each Taste Ticket costs only a buck ($1) and you can count on participants like Bouchon and Bardessono's Lucy being ever so present.
Yountville will host the 20th Annual Taste of Yountville weekend celebration March 14-16, 2013 to showcase the town's finest food, wine and arts. Taste of Yountville will culminate in a town-wide block party on Saturday, March 16, 2013. Admission is free, tasting tickets will be $1 each. In addition to Saturday's signature block party event, the Taste of Yountville weekend will play host to several special events throughout Yountville.
For more information click here or call the Yountville Chamber of Commerce

Arts In April
Relative newcomer as far as events go... is Arts in April, Napa. Started in 2011, this will be its 3rd year running. Best yet is that the event unfolds over the course of the month... so no matter which weekend in April you get yourselves up to Napa, you will find highlighted art shows and exhibits to accompany those great Napa Valley Wines.
April 1 - 30, 2013
Visit Website
Visit Website
And be sure to check the Special Events Calendar (like for bASH in St. Helena April 13th!!) to help you plan your trip itinerary....
A celebration of the elemental connection between wine and the arts, this month-long program satisfies cultural cravings with an exploration of winery art installations, pop-up exhibitions and tastings. Introduced in April 2011, Arts in April offers special access and packages to enjoy The Napa Valley Collection, making it the perfect time to get a dose of Napa Valley culture with your Cabernet.

The NapaLife Insider's Guide to Napa Valley
More than a guidebook, this newest Napa Valley Travel Book is written by Insider Paul Franson, a Napa resident for coming on 20 years now. What's great is that he orients his book to the Digital Age. So, gone are the addresses and pet-friendly, smoking/non-smoking icons in minuscule type...
Instead - since you can look up those other things on your SmartPhone, of course - what Franson gives you is honest, down home opinions of the best of what there is to find in Napa.
He's big on the local favorites, too, so you won't get just the tourist recommendations or places TouristAdvisors have reviewed and recommended...
In fact, as far as Travel Guides go, Franson seems to have hit this one out of the ballpark. It's like talking to a friend who has lived in Napa for a couple decades and getting the DL on good eats, good deals, good hikes and bike rides, where the celebs hang out, and even a bit of history as to who owns which winery and for how long and with whom?...
At any rate, you just might be tempted to pitch your tent until harvest time... Now that's not such a bad idea is it? Too bad that Ag Preserve is so vigilant, eh?!
You can order NapaLife Insider's Guide to Napa Valley guidebook directly from his website: NapaLife.com

Yup, more artwork - I think I'm possessed!!! :D I do think I'm improving with every attempt.
I wanted to try and paint a landscape in watercolours. I worked from a photograph
for this painting.
|I'm particularly proud of this one. I painted an image from a photograph. I didn't think I could pull
it off, but I did and I LOVE the result.
|This one has several layers of paint cause my initial idea failed
miserably. The final result turned out well though, if at
first you don't succeed...
|This is another version of the first poppy painting I did.
I liked the painting so much I wanted to try a more
abstract version as well.
It's fabulous that society is now embracing all forms of art - no matter how wild or tame it is. We have evolved to the point where the beauty of the piece is recognized rather than thinking only one way is the right way to paint or sculpt or photograph or whatever. No matter how simplistic or complicated it is or whether anyone else agrees with you that it is beautiful or not, if you love it - that's all that matters.

Starches from Different Sources
While the U.S. relies on corn for most of its starch, much of the world relies on the wheat, potato or tapioca starches, each with unique characteristics.
In the U.S., starch usually means corn starch, either common or waxy, often chemically modified for extra functionality. In Europe, starches are more often wheat, potato or tapioca, with a different set of chemical modifications, or sometimes no chemical modifications at all. One reason is shelf-life priorities are different in different countries.
Lately, U.S. priorities are changing, triggered by changing dietary preferences of consumers. Today, starches may need to be appropriate for organic labeling or other carbohydrate combinations, such as "resistant" starches, or part of grain flours or other carbohydrate components of grains or tubers.
Starches are used to improve the functionality of mixed food systems, and one of the components that may cause problems is indigenous starches. These starches often are not well characterized, so overcoming "set-back" or syneresis caused by native starches may require the addition of modified starches or other ingredients.
When talking about the role of starch in food systems, there are two parts to the equation: starch added to improve function and starch that is naturally present and could cause interactions with added starch to the detriment of the food system.
The difference between a starch from corn or one from potato can depend on the structure of the starch, controlled by the kinds of polymers found in the grain or tuber and the way the polymers are packed into the starch granule. Polymers are characterized as amylose (linear starch) or amylopectin (branched starch). But there are many variations between one amylopectin starch (often called waxy starches) and another, as well as differences between the length and texture of amylose starches. These are governed by a set of enzymes that trigger branches and size.
A waxy rice starch produces foods that are different in texture and other attributes than a waxy potato or a waxy barley starch. If a consumer is accustomed to eating foods made with rice starch, the texture will be different when the food is made with another starch.
Some of the alternatives to corn starch have been around for decades, but because of shipment and handling, have been more expensive than corn or waxy corn starches. Potato starch generally is more expensive than corn but has different attributes, such as forming a gel and "set back" to form different textures unless it is chemically modified. The cost of chemical modification is variable, but highly modified starches can be very expensive. Recently, new starches in addition to potato, tapioca and rice starches are appearing in the marketplace.
Starch from legumes
When concerns about modified starches hit the baby food industry, at least one firm advertised they would "add more food" to baby foods, replacing the starches. The assumption by the consumer was starch added nothing to nutrition of baby foods.
Of course, in many cases the "more food," especially vegetables, contain large amounts of starch. So, in adding more food, the primary action was to add pea or bean starch (or carrot or apple). Today, starch from peas and beans are being used to control the glycemic index of foods, as these starches resemble resistant starch and pass through the gut without being absorbed by the body.
"Use of the white bean starch reduces the glycemic index of white bread significantly," according to Jay Udani, medical director for Medicus Research LLC (www.medicusresearch.com), Northridge, Calif.
One such product is Starchlite, the product of Pharmachem Laboratories Inc., (www.pharmachemlabs.com), Kearny, N.J., a standardized, all-natural extract of the common white bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). It has been clinically shown to delay the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, reducing caloric impact, glucose impact and the glycemic index of starchy foods.
Starchlite may be used as an ingredient in a variety of foods and beverages, including baked goods, cereals, frozen foods, packaged meals, pasta, pizza crust, soups and confectionary. Sensory evaluations show Starchlite has no negative effect on the taste or texture of foods.
Affirmed GRAS in July 2006, Pharmachem received a letter last November from the FDA authorizing the following structure/function claim for Starchlite: "May reduce the enzymatic digestion of dietary starches" or "May assist in weight control when used in conjunction with a sensible diet and exercise program."
Nutri-Pea Ltd. (www.parrheim.com), Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, produces Accu-Gel, made from the kernels of golden Canadian peas. Field peas, as they are called in Canada, are a little higher in the linear fraction starch than common corn, so pea starch is about 35 percent amylose and 65 percent amylopectin.

In sync with the '60s spirit in fashion, eye makeup is going Mod. Think shadows in bold Pop art brights, feathered liner, mega lashes and graphic brows.
Makeup artist François Nars channeled the signature look of Edie Sedgwick, Andy Warhol's muse and one of the era's style icons, at the Marc Jacobs spring fashion show. Anchored by strong brows, dramatic eyes were the focal point, punched up with dark liner and loads of mascara for a spidery-lashed look without false lashes.
"Adding a darker shade to the [lower rim] will make the eye pop, especially if you use black," Nars says. "But it's sometimes nice to put an unexpected color in the [rim]. It's an easier way to play with multiple colors and emphasize the eyes."
For an extra stroke of brilliance, several makeup artists at the spring fashion shows added an arch of colored eyeliner in the eye crease.
Others, such as Pat McGrath at Dior, amped up the eye with a full-on flash of happy-go-lucky colored shadow. Interpreting designer Raf Simons' "techno butterfly" theme, McGrath hand-applied swoops of Swarovski crystals over vividly hued, winged shadow to eye-popping effect. Lashes, brows and lips were left natural to balance the standout color.
Take inspiration by trying a splash of vibrant shadow or shimmery eye glitter on an otherwise bare face. But proceed with a light hand; more is not more in the case of electric-hued eye color.
"When in doubt, keep everything in moderation," Nars says. "And if you're going to experiment with bold color, make sure you blend."
Another, more fail-proof option for attention-grabbing eyes: Full, fluttery faux lashes. And don't forget to bat them.

Appearing as a recent phenomenon — promoting the sale of chocolates and greeting cards — Mother's Day has a rich heritage that carries more history and meaning than we may now recognize.
May 13 will bring about a flurry of tender sentiment accented with flowers and flowery words. The roots of the day, however, run deep.
Fertility and motherhood have been revered in art and ritual since humans began creating a visible record of their civilizations.
Today, virtually every culture has an official day set aside to honor mothers. In England it is called "Mothering Sunday." In Russia, it is celebrated as part of "International Women's Day." In Germany, it is called "Muttertag."
In other cultures celebration of motherhood may be tied to specific religious or historical figures.
In pre-Shah Iran, during the sixth month of the Muslim calendar, the day is celebrated on the 21st — the birthday anniversary of Fatimah, the Prophet Muhammad's daughter.
In India, mothers are honored during Durga Ashtami, an event that commemorates the appearance of the feminine consciousness of the cosmos as embodied by the Goddess Durga.
Within Hindu populations in Nepal and elsewhere the day is called "Mata Tirtha Aunshi" or "Mother Pilgrimage Fortnight."
The U.S. celebration began to become formalized first through the work of Julia Ward Howe, who penned "The Battle Hymn of the Republic."
Recognizing the tremendous, devastating loss of life during the U.S. Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War, Howe worked tirelessly to unite mothers from both sides of the conflicts to bring about peace.
In 1870 she wrote her "Mother's Day Proclamation" calling for women to join together in support of disarmament. The text of her moving call for peace includes the following:
"... Arise, all women who have hearts, whether our baptism be of water or of tears!
"Say firmly: 'We will not have great questions decided by irrelevant agencies, Our husbands will not come to us, reeking with carnage, for caresses and applause. Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience. We, the women of one country, will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs ... '"
The American Mother's Day finally became official in 1914 through the continued work of Anna Jarvis under the legislation of President Woodrow Wilson.
Jarvis later became distressed by the escalating commercialism of Mother's Day and encouraged others throughout the remainder of her life to return to the deeper meaning of the celebration.

My fabulous friend Jesse has the best hair. Seriously, check her out above! I've recently noticed her rocking some gorgeous curls. She's a mama of two and I had to know how she did it, and more importantly, how she found the time. She raved about a "magical curling wand" from Target that turned her straight, thick hair into tousled curls in less than 30 minutes. I can't even imagine how fast my short, fine hair would curl! I'm sold. See ya at Tar-jay!
Jesse's 4-step system for perfect beachy waves:
- Separate dry hair into four sections.
- Use the Conair Infiniti You Curl Wand to curl pieces from each of the sections.
- Spray each piece with TIGI's Bed Head Hard Head hairspray.
- Use fingers to lightly tousle curls... And go!

C&MA President Calls Nyack 'The Backbone of Our Ministry for 125 Years'
Of the many distinguished guests present for the inauguration of Dr. Michael G. Scales as Nyack College and Alliance Theological Seminary's 12th president, perhaps none had more reason to be there than Dr. Gary Benedict.
Dr. Benedict is the President of the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). And Nyack and the C&MA have, for 125 years, been synonymous with bringing the gospel of Jesus Christ to unreached people all over the world.
It began with the calling of one man—Nyack and CMA founder A.B. Simpson back in 1882—and its continued growth was on display at the April 27 inauguration of Dr. Scales.
"Nyack has been the backbone of our ministry for 125 years," Dr. Benedict said. "A.B. Simpson had a vision, and training workers was the foundation of it all."
And so it came as no surprise to those familiar with Nyack's roots when Dr. Scales announced during his inauguration speech that his commitment was really an extension of Simpson's commitment. It was no surprise to hear Dr. Scales reiterate on several occasions that his inauguration was "not about my presidency." Rather, Dr. Scales' presidency is about taking Nyack and ATS into the future by aligning it even more closely with its rich past.
Dr. Scales' understanding of—and commitment to—Nyack's roots was not lost on Dr. Benedict. "Nyack/ATS maintain the core values of Simpson and the Alliance," he said. "It has always been the mother ship for Alliance higher education."
Benedict was encouraged by Dr. Scales' assertion of the five core values that seek to exalt Jesus Christ and fulfill its mission by being Academically Excellent, Globally Engaged, Intentionally Diverse, Personally Transforming and Socially Relevant.
"Building on the five-fold plan is a great goal," Dr. Benedict said. "Each of those five goals is a great goal. Each is where we want to take the institution."He was also impressed by the Dr. Scales' commitment to see the state of New York recognize Nyack College as a university by 2015.
"Mike's vision to expand to a university is fitting. It is continuing to fulfill the mission of A.B. Simpson," he said. "Mike is a networker and a bridge builder. That's evidenced by the community relationships he's already established. The college is obviously a part of (the village of) Nyack. It's a great neighborhood to the nation's vision and culture."
According to Dr. Benedict, the greatest development for the college's future may be its return to Manhattan in 1997. It doesn't just provide a platform for reaching students. It also opens the doors to relationships with urban churches and communities. It is a reflection of why Nyack has been nationally recognized for leadership in a diverse student population—close to 90 percent of the student body at the NYC campus is non-Anglo.
The New York City campus also opens doors worldwide, says Benedict.
"Returning to Manhattan was a huge step," he said. "That's moving ahead, but also returning to our roots. The nations have come to New York. We can go to the nations through them—through higher education in New York City."
That's the vision of A.B. Simpson—and the enduring goal of Nyack/ATS … and of the Christian and Missionary Alliance.

South Dakota State Has Chance to Beat The Huskers
After reading this if you feel prompted to rush out to place a wager, your sanity may come into question. By no means does this come from some fantastic football mind.
Rudimentary knowledge aside, there is a slim possibility that South Dakota State could go into Lincoln and actually win a football game. SHOULD that actually happen, the next turn of events would be Nebraska head coach Bo Pelini under armed guard leaving Lincoln never to return.
Game One: Nebraska 37 Wyoming 34. The first red flag of the 2013 campaign appears. The Cowboys to the North have a competent offense and showed it against Big Red. Game Two: Nebraska 56 Southern Miss 13. The Huskers bounce back and play above their competition's talent level. Game Three: UCLA 41 Nebraska 21. The fabric that covers the Nebraska football program is starting to stretch at the seams. Big lead turns into big loss. If the yo-yo pattern continues, the Jackrabbits are in trouble.
South Dakota State might be overmatched on defense somewhat. A sharp North Dakota offense and a less than sharp Southeastern Louisiana still piled up yards and points. Based on past events, The Huskers have shown that their defense is suspect. SDSU has an offense that has scored 34 or more in their first three contests with a quarterback that was once courted by Big Ten and Big 12 schools before casting his lot with the gang in Brookings.
Let's face it. Nebraska would have to play down at home to give the Jacks a chance. However there is just enough turmoil to possibly take the edge off a bit for the Huskers leaving a glimmer of hope for the Yellow and Blue. In the big picture for SDSU, North Dakota State is up next week. Bagging a trophy win would be nice, but capturing the Dakota Marker trophy would do more to set up the season for a deep playoff run.

Donald leads McIlroy by one in Dubai
All it took was 18 holes for the cream to rise to the top as world No.2 Luke Donald took a one-shot lead over world No.1 Rory McIlroy after the opening round of the $8million DP World Tour Championship on Thursday.
At the Earth course of Jumeirah Golf Estates, England's Donald shot a bogey-free round of seven-under par 65, while McIlroy could have joined him on the top but had to be satisfied with a par on the par-5 final hole after hitting his tee shot into the water.
That left McIlroy, who has already won the European Tour's Race to Dubai crown by taking an unassailable lead on top of the Money List, at six-under par 66 and tied for second with Spain's Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano and Scotland's Marc Warren.
Meanwhile, world No.4 and No.6, Lee Westwood of England and Louis Oosthuizen of South Africa, were another shot behind and tied fourth at five-under par 67 in a group that also included major champions Padraig Harrington and Martin Kaymer.
World No.7 Justin Rose was in a group of 10 players tied at 11th place at four-under par 68.
Donald, who won last week's Dunlop Phoenix Open on Japan Golf Tour, was delighted to carry on his form from there. After making an eight-footer on the first and a 15-footer on the fourth to save pars, he unleashed seven birdies in a stretch of 10 holes.
"It is a nice start and I felt very comfortable out there. Nice to pick up from where I left off last week in Japan," said Donald.
"You always feel different the week after winning. You just feel like you have that little extra pep in your step and there is a bit more confidence flowing.
"That middle section of the course from about 5 to 14, I really swung my clubs well and made a lot of nice putts."
Donald, who lost his crown of being the No.1 player in the world and on the US PGA and European Tours to McIlroy this year, said it definitely felt different this year without feeling the pressure of trying to win the Race to Dubai, although his goals were the same as last year.
"Definitely, the feeling was a different one today on the first tee. There was a lot at stake for me last year, so obviously, I felt the pressure," said Donald, who had shot successive rounds of 66 over the weekend to finish third here in 2011.
"I think the goal was the same, just to come here and try to win the tournament. This year, it feels like I am just playing for the tournament."
McIlroy, who made the turn at one-under and then made five birdies in the next seven holes, said: "I got off to a little slow start even though I thought I was hitting the ball well enough give myself opportunities for birdies.
"There's a lot of golf left to be played but I am off to a good start and it would be great to emulate what Lee (Westwood) did a few years ago and won both the trophies.
"I really wanted to make a birdie on the last hole and play with Luke in the final group tomorrow. Wasn't able to do that today, but the way I am playing, I feel might have a chance to do that during the weekend."
Meanwhile, the tournament lost its fourth player in Ireland's Shane Lowry, who pulled out in the morning after picking up a virus at the beginning of the week.
The Portugal Masters winner was taken to hospital yesterday and put on drips for some time before being released.
The $8 million tournament is the season-ending championship on the European Tour and only the top-60 players in the Money List qualify for it.

Seven Fingered Jack Climber's Log
Snidely Whiplash - Feb 23, 2006 4:22 pm Date Climbed: Jul 3, 1992Route Climbed: Leroy Creek Basin
Climb with snow on it. The rock is loose, the climbing is frustrating.
younkin - Dec 1, 2005 1:19 amRoute Climbed: southwest slope Date Climbed: 1969
it was fun and we had a good view of the valley and glacier on the other side...
M and N Denyer - Oct 31, 2005 1:28 pmRoute Climbed: Southwest Slope Date Climbed: September 24, 2005
Had a wonderful time climbing this peak with Brian Jenkins and Brian Clate. The camping at LeRoy Basin was breathtaking. Definitely a special spot.
Brian Jenkins - Oct 4, 2005 11:21 amRoute Climbed: Southwest Slope Date Climbed: September 24, 2005
Hiked in with SP members Flanders and M and N Denyer to Leroy Basin the day before. Pretty steep hike up from the creek. Set up a great camp there and got an early start on Saturday up the basin from there. Went up a steep grassy part before the saddle and then rested a bit in the saddle. Then on up steep loose rock for most of the rest of the day. Skirted the "fingers" at their base mostly and found cairns from time to time. Views from the summit were amazing and we lingered there for a long time. Took us about 4 hours up from camp but only one to get back down to the saddle. It was only 1 pm then so I decided to go on and do Maude that day as well. Headed off on a loose scree traverse from the saddle....
iluka - Aug 28, 2005 12:12 pmRoute Climbed: Southwest Slope Date Climbed: August 28, 2005
Early season is probably a better time to do this than August when there is usually no snow left. The top 2,500 feet involves a lot of scree and loose rock which gets old after a while. Many climbers trails lead up towards the true summit. The true summit is hard to spot as you work your way up the upper part of the mountain. Just keep to the left as it's the left most "finger" of the seven that make up the peaks name.
cusmx5 - Jul 19, 2005 7:02 pmRoute Climbed: Southwest slope (Beckey) Date Climbed: July 16, 2005
Done in combination with climb of Mt Maude the next day. From campground in Leroy Creek basin, followed climber's trail (sometimes faint and with cairns) all the way. Only one small snow section to cross; no crampons needed (in the afternoon). Spectacular views! Lots of loose rock and scree, but traversing route makes it reasonaly safe.
sprosseda - Sep 10, 2003 10:56 amRoute Climbed: SW route Date Climbed: August 15, 2003
Did 7FJ as a 10 hour day hike of ~12 miles and ~5,700 vertical feet. Beautiful meadows and views from the basins. Route up to summit is always loose rocks but never severe terrain. Spectacular views of Maude, Fernow and Bonanza.
savaiusini - Jul 18, 2001 8:53 amRoute Climbed: South west Date Climbed: 07/2000
climbed the snow finger from upper Leroy basin. Lot's of Talus to the top.
Bob Bolton - Jul 11, 2001 11:21 pmRoute Climbed: Southwest Slope Date Climbed: July 5, 2001
Duane and I hiked into Leroy Creek basin on a beautiful Independence Day and camped in view of our objective. In the evening we scouted the lower portion of the route and found an easy way around the "prominent gully", as Fred Beckey put it. Then on Thursday we headed up to the peak and had a leisurely day on the mountain in perfect weather.

Latina Workers at Oregon Nursery Sexually Harassed, Threatened, and One Woman Repeatedly Raped, Federal Agency Charges
SEATTLE — A Molalla, Ore., nursery violated federal law when it allowed female employees to be severely sexually harassed and retaliated against the women and male co-workers after they reported the harassment, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit it filed today. This is the agency's third such case against Oregon agricultural employers. Last October, the EEOC filed lawsuits against Scheimer Farms of Nyassa, Ore., and against Wilcox Farms, Inc., and Wilcox Dairy Farms Group in Aurora, Ore.
The EEOC's suit charges that sexual harassment and retaliation occurred at the Molalla, Ore., facility of Willamette Tree Wholesale, which operates 140 acres of retail nursery farmland, including a garden supply store and business office. According to the federal agency's investigation, one worker, a 38-year-old Latina, was taken to remote areas of the farm by the company foreman and raped repeatedly over several months. In addition to threatening her with termination and loss of needed income, the harasser physically coerced her with pruning shears, and made threats against her life as well as against her family. Ultimately, when she refused to be sexually assaulted yet again, she was fired.
Another Latina co-worker, age 35, faced daily sexual innuendos and propositions for sex as well as grabbing and touching. When she and her husband, who also worked there, reported sexual harassment by a crew leader, Willamette Tree failed to investigate or respond to their complaint. The EEOC alleges that the couple and her brother were terminated in retaliation for having reported and opposed sexual harassment.
"All sexual harassment isunacceptable, but what happened hereis unspeakable," said EEOC Acting Chairman Stuart J. Ishimaru. "This shows how dangerous a situation can become when employers are hostile to workers' rights andsexual harassment goes unchecked. There simply is no excuse for any employer tolerating this sort of worker abuse, and enough is enough. The EEOCis going to be focusing more and more on finding new and better ways to reach the most vulnerable of discrimination victims, like these farm workers, and to halt this kind of horrific mistreatment."
Sexual harassment and retaliation for complaining about it violate Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon (EEOC v. Willamette Tree Wholesale, Inc. (CV-09-690-PK) after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement out of court. The workers will be represented in the lawsuit by the Oregon Law Center, which brought the case to the EEOC's attention. The EEOC seeks monetary damages on behalf of the workers, training on anti-discrimination laws, posting of notices at the work site, and other injunctive relief.
EEOC Regional Attorney William R. Tamayo said, "From California, where the fields were called 'field de calzon' (or 'field of panties') because so many supervisors raped women there, to Florida, where female farm workers call them 'The Green Motel,' and throughout the country, we have found women working in agriculture are often particularly vulnerable to sexual harassment. We hope this third Oregon lawsuit will send notice to employers in this industry to stop predatory sexual behavior and abuses of supervisor power."
EEOC District Director Michael Baldonado noted, "Our investigation found that sexual harassment at Willamette Tree was widespread, tolerated, expected, and a condition of employment.
Instead of investigating reports of sexual harassment and taking action to stop or prevent it, these employers ignored repeated signs of harassment and blamed the victims. We hope this lawsuit will encourage workers to be able to step forward about discrimination without fear of losing their jobs."
Workers who suffered sexual harassment at Willamette Tree Wholesale should contact the EEOC to determine if they qualify to be part of the class: contact Carmen Flores at (206) 220-6853.
In 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the judgment on a jury verdict of over $1,000,000 in favor of the EEOC and farm worker Olivia Tamayo (no relation to William Tamayo) in a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit against Coalinga, Calif.-based Harris Farms, one of the largest integrated farming operations in the Central San Joaquin Valley.
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.
