Happy Birthday Jules Verne
Conceptual event design. Vectorworks and Photoshop rendering.
Ears Up
Vectorworks & Photoshop rendering for the Ears Up Design Studio, a prototyping space for sound and multimedia design located in Glendale, CA.
Mirabili is a themed restaurant design inspired by Lewis Carroll's beloved 1865 novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The design aims to create a sophisticated dining space with subtle references to the original text. It is classy and inspiring, meant to be enjoyed by everyone, not just children.
Conceptual renderings created in Vectorworks.
Entering the waiting area, guests are greeted with a circular foyer with seating around the outside. The walls are a textural entanglement of roots and vines. We are at the bottom of the rabbit hole.
Looking up the tall cylindrical chamber we see the hole through which Alice fell, with force perspective trees towering overhead. Hanging within the space is a chandelier composed of marmalade jars, a specific item from the original story which Alice saw as she fell.
From the waiting area guests walk through this archway to the host station.
The host's station is this whimsical glass table (referring to the glass table in Carroll's text), with the Mirabili logo emblazoned into the metal leg caps.
Guests now enter the restaurant through the Hall of Doors, each a different size to reflect Alice's fluctuating scale. The motif on the front of each door adds to the sense of recursion.
At the the end of the hallway is the white rabbit's giant pocket watch next to a tiny door, again referencing Alice's shifting sizes. Guests can glimpse into the garden area through the tiny door, just as in the story.
The glass teardrop chandeliers overhead emulate Alice's tears as she begins to cry, and the elusive key appears in the wallpaper pattern.
The largest door in the hallway (and the only practical one) leads into the first dining area: The Mad Tea Party.
The Mad Tea Party area features a hodgepodge collection of eclectic chair and table styles, unified only by their finishes. A long communal table runs diagonally through this section, allowing multiple parties to socialize together, just as Alice sat at a table with many new faces.
Inverted tea cup chandeliers hang over the high table area.
On the outer walls are booths with abstract tea cup shaped windows.
Overhead are the leaves of the tall tree which hangs over the Mad Tea Party. Each leaf is illuminated by its own light, and the is sleekly suspended by its power cord. The opening in the tree leads back to the Hall of Doors.
The walls on either side of the tree are covered in a mirror finish, making it appear as though the tree circles completely around. This makes the doorway more of a "portal" into another world.
From the Mad Tea Party section we can see to the next area: The Queen's Garden.
The Garden is where the Queen of Hearts plays croquet with flamingoes, which have been reimagined as tables. The playing card soldiers have become the chairs, representing the four suits of a deck.
The dividing wall hedges provide privacy to each booth. The hedges are made of a shag damro rug material, and feature cutouts in the shapes of the four suits. Overhead are chandeliers made out of playing card shapes.
This wall features a light art installation, with the Queen's roses (some of which have been "painted red") glowing and pulsing, each embedded into the wood veneer wall.
On the other side of the hedges are more booths and two-tops.
All of the booths feature a fabric pattern composed of abstract hedgehogs, which are the croquet balls in the Queen's game.
The brick structure at the center of the room represents the White Rabbit's house, in which Alice grows giant.
Along the outside of the house, Carroll describes a series of "cucumber frames" (gardening compartments) which have been re-imagined as private dining booths. On the other side of the window openings is the Mad Tea Party area.
Parties of up to 10 may enjoy being seated in this section, where giant grass blade dividers make guests feel as though they've been shrunken down.
Inspired by the section of the story in which Alice meets the hookah-smoking caterpillar, the tables here are giant mushrooms with hookah-shapes lamps at the center of each.
Perhaps the most obvious reference in the restaurant is the large window in the shape of the Cheshire Cat's smile. Playing card table line the outer walls.
The Cheshire Cat's whiskers are hanging sculptural elements.
Sitting in one of the outer booths guests may look back and see the rest of the restaurant.

LAKEWOOD — There isn't much of anything Mary Gillett won't do for her team.
The Niwot senior proved that on Saturday by weakening her chances to defend her Class 4A titles in the 200- and 400-meter dashes by trying to do everything humanly possible to score team points. On Saturday alone, Gillett competed in four individual finals - the 100, 200, 400 and 300 hurdles - all in the span of three and a half hours.
Such a rigorous schedule provided Gillett will little time to prepare for each event and progressively took a toll on her body throughout a short but jam-packed final day of her prep career. She didn't successfully defend either of her individual titles but did finish fourth or better in each of them and scored 28 team points to help the Cougars finish second in the Class 4A team scoring.
That was good enough for Gillett.
"I was always going to do the one, two and four and when long jump wasn't looking as promising for me, we went with the hurdles and that's just the way it all turned out," Gillett said. "I knew I'd be able to tough it out. It's interesting, though, because I didn't have time today to think about the last race. I just had to get in gear for the next one all day long.
"It was tough because each one made me more tired for the next. This year was a little bit different in terms of who I was racing so I knew I just had to fight for as many team points as I could get. It's a little disappointing not to repeat but I did my best and I'm proud of that."
In cold and rainy conditions that made what she was attempting even more difficult, Gillett finished runner-up in the 100 with a time of 12.21 seconds at 10:30 a.m., ran a 56.53 in the 400 to place third at 11:30 a.m., took third with a 25.18 in the 200 at 1:10 p.m., and finished up with a 44.97 in the 300 hurdles at 2 p.m. that landed her in fourth place on the podium.
In any other year, Gillett's effort would likely have been the cornerstone of a team championship. The Cougars finished with 114 team points, which is the highest total since Mullen won the 4A title with 122 points in 1997. In the previous 20 state meets, only one 4A girls team had hit the century mark (Thompson Valley with 101 in 2009) and even during their run of three straight team championships from 2013-14, the Cougars never approached that total.
But 2018 was Valor Christian's year and the Eagles won the girls team title with an astounding 151.5 points.
"Any other year," Cougars head coach Maurice Henriques said. "We knew Valor was going to be tough to beat and we figured if we scored 110 points, we'd give them a run for their money. You can't even be upset because they were in every event they did a great job. But our girls fought the whole meet and we'll go back to work in two weeks and try to figure out how to beat them next year."
Cougars senior Mackenzie Fidelak, who has medaled in 15 of the 16 events she has competed in at state throughout her high school career, highlighted her Saturday by placing third in the 300 hurdles with a time of 44.65. The Cougars 1,600-meter relay team - Erika Timbang, Kelia Portis, Maggie Smith and Taylor James - finished the state meet by winning the state title with a time of 3:55.64. The Cougars also placed fifth in the 400-meter relay, placed three girls in both the 100 and 300 hurdles, placed two girls in the 1,600 and had Erin Carroll place seventh in the pole vault.
"It felt good to win the final event of the meet," Timbang said after the Cougars edged Valor Christian for the 1,600-meter relay title. "We really wanted it. It's been amazing to run with all these amazing girls who have put in so much work it even though we didn't win the team, we feel like we showed Colorado what Niwot it made of."

By the year 2020, it's estimated that more than $85 billion will be spent globally on native advertising. One such type of native advertising in called sponsored content or long-form native. This is where brands or publications write custom content to be published on an online magazine or blog. It generally takes the form of a full written article.
There are many notable examples. One of the most famous sponsored posts was written by my friend, Melanie Deziel. It's entitled, "Orange is the New Black" and it's sponsored by Netflix. It's real journalism about women in prison. The article was very successful for Netflix and earned multiples more media than the actual paid media.
Many marketers and advertisers aren't even aware that there's a whole ecosystem of marketplaces for sponsored content. These companies act like the Match(dot)com of sponsored content – connecting brands and publishers.
For marketers wishing to expand brand-visibility, awareness, and overall audience, the above solutions help get content in front of new audiences in a new way. While sponsored content has been around for over 100 years, it was with the advent of content marketing that pushed the advertorial up-funnel. The technology represented above help brands scale sponsored content production and/or publication. Without them, marketers would be forced to individually engage each publication they wished to publish on.

Jun 21, 2018Flashback on Switch is the definitive edition of a truly special science fiction platform/puzzle solving/shooting video game that already more than proved itself to be a 16-bit classic. If you were too young to play this the first time, this package will give you the best possible way to experience it with current hardware. For veteran gamers, Flashback has lost nothing of what made it special all those years ago. Pass the holocube, please.
Apr 1, 2019Flashback: Remastered Edition remains a stone-cold classic, and old players will love how so little has been done to it, helping to preserve what caught people's attention in the first place as opposed to covering it all up with a more modern sheen. Newer players who aren't accustomed to the classic single-screen style of gameplay might find the control scheme and lack of real help frustrating at first. Stick with it and you'll discover why Flashback was more than just a display of pretty graphics. Overall, this title is a worthy addition to the Switch library.
Jun 27, 2018Flashback was a 90's classic and still is a great experience in the best and most complete version of Paul Cuisset's game.
Jul 9, 2018Flashback is a great game that somehow manages to stand the test of time twenty five years later. The option to adjust the difficulty with the new Modern Mode should allow newcomers to ease into the admittedly brutal gameplay.
Jul 31, 201825 years after its original release we still love this cyberpunk adventure. The new filters and rewind options don´t add much to the original, but Flashback didn´t need those kinds of improvements. Physical edition is also great.
Jul 10, 2018Flashback 25th Anniversary brings us the nostalgia of playing a game which was a hit some time before. We will play like we did then, with the same graphics and soundtrack, but on our portable console this time. Playing this game again is nothing but worth it.
Aug 11, 2018Flashback brings back one of the 1990s 16-bit classics in a perfect nostalgia exercise that also includes some interesting new elements. Its gameplay remains as demanding as it was, which will delight Flashback's fans and possibly frustrate more recent players who are not used to this kind of old school difficulty.

York grocery reports customers used counterfeit bill
Two men tried to pass a fake $100 bill at a York Bi-Lo last week, according to a York Police report.
The report states the men entered the Bi-Lo off Filbert Highway and asked a cashier to make change for the bill. When she discovered it was counterfeit, the men grabbed the bill, ran outside and fled in a blue Mazda hatchback.\
Police responded to the store but were unable to locate the suspects

Adversarial coordination: Dynamics of collective engagement on Twitter during US presidential debates
Join this 3rd Datalab Talk this fall featuring Assoc. Professor at Semiotics, Aarhus University, Riccardo Fusaroli.
About the talk
Riccardo will discuss the role of conflict in the collective dynamics of attentional entrainment and information-spreading on Twitter and the surprising ways in which humans collectively coordinate during mediatic events. The talk will highlight massive collective entrainment in Twitter behaviours and assess competing hypotheses on the role played by displayed dominance, emotional tone and partisanship. Riccardo will [spoiler!] argue that intergroup competition is the main drive between such unprecedented massive coordination.
The study that the talk bases on relies on systematic mining and statistical modeling of the tweets produced during the 2012 and 2016 US presidential elections. The topic is fun, and crosses many disciplines. This means you're probably going to learn something new and contribute too (since you probably know more than me about at least one the topics/methods involved!)
Sign up
Everyone can come and join this talk. If you are from another company or organisation than Aarhus University, then please sign up for the talk.
In that way we can make sure to put enough coffee on.

Ten short stories, each examining sensuality, sexuality and eroticism. Published by Ginninderra Press, 2000, ISBN 1 74027 039 8. Launched in Canberra by the then Australian Democrat senator Brian Greig and in Sydney by Dorothy Porter.
'Nigel Featherstone's writing is beautifully poised, taking you right into that moment of repose, deepening the experience into its true fullness... Joy is a collection of ten stories, many of which are wonderfully accomplished pieces, warm, lush, humane, with lots of surprises and shocks.' Nita Kambouris, Australian Book Review, No. 224 September 2000
'This is eloquent writing. These stories not only moved me but also reminded me of the pleasure – and the shock – of words. Pretty bloody excellent.' Christos Tsiolkas
'Joy avoids many of the pitfalls open to collections of short stories by a single author. The pieces are varied enough in intent and style to prevent the book appearing like a poor excuse for a novel. At the same time, there is enough congruence that they don't jar. The structure of the book, which has the ten main stories book-ended by a split piece, adds to this sense of coherence, but it is also a result of Featherstone's assured writing... Featherstone's depiction of Canberra and nearby bushland are particularly impressive. Settings and location are clearly important to him, and he conveys ideas of topography and sense of place very well. A distinctive voice, offering unexpected insights into relations between people.'
Ann Standish, Overland, No. 163, 2001
'A commitment to people and landscape. Unusually profound and memorable.' Rodney Croome, former editor of Island
'Featherstone's writing is mature in its crafting and varied both in tone and narrative voice. [He] is equally adept at conveying the thoughts and emotions of a person in love, on the prowl or totally self-absorbed. He is able to suggest the weary sadness of the end of an affair, the frustration of a man competing for the attention of a friend who dotes on his female secretary, or the anguish of an older man consumed by guilt and remembered desire from a relationship in the past. Featherstone writes with passion, sensitivity and insight and some of the stories... are extremely moving.'
Veronica Sen, The Canberra Times, 24 July 2000
'Have you ever walked around a well-known suburb and some sudden shift of light makes it seem familiar and strange at the same? This sensation is inherent when reading Featherstone's anthology, in which the landscape of Canberra and the nearby coast are significant. Joy is multi-layered and does what good writing should do – it touches the heart... The un-named framing story in Joy asks: 'Is there one thing, or many?' The varied stories between the asking and the enigmatic final page take the reader into a search for knowledge – of love and desire and sexuality. But love and caring take precedence. Well worth the read.' Glenda Guest, Muse, August 2000

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, I mean, living in the sub-tropics I can ride all year round.
It can get cool in winter, with some mornings getting down to -5°C (23°F) out towards the west of Brisbane, but usually it only gets down to 1°C or 2°C (34°F to 36°F) and once the sun starts to climb, the days can top out at a balmy 23°C (73°F).
Winter is also dry, with the average rainfall being around 125mm (5″). So l really have no excuse when it comes to going out for a ride. We actually got a couple of millimeters less than the average this winter, and it all came in the last two weeks of August.
My favorite time of year has to be spring.
Spring is the time of year when the mornings are brisk and the days are warm, but not so warm that you need to carry endless amounts of water with you. There is a problem with spring though, it signals the first storms that in the lead up to the wet season.
The storms usually turn up in the first or second week of October, which is when the temperature starts to creep up.
They're usually short-lived, lasting anything from 10 to 30 minutes. They can be destructive though, with high winds, heavy rain and hail – and they almost always hit at the same time as I start my commute home between 16:00 – 1700 AEST*.
The spring storms are just a taste of what is to follow.
December 1st marks the start of summer and the wet season. The wet season is usually in full swing by the beginning of January and runs through to early March. Average rainfall for Brisbane over summer is around 450mm (18″). Last summer we got 572mm (22-1/2″).
It's not all rain though. Summer can get up to 45°C (114°F) if it tries hard enough. The average day time temperature is more like 30°C (86°F), with 70% humidity. Team that with a UV index in the extreme range and you can see that riding can become uncomfortable if you're an ATGATT* rider.
Plenty of water and sunscreen are a must if you plan on doing any sort of riding during summer.
Most of the following photos were taken over the summer of 2013/ 2014 and were posted to my various social media pages during the course of this year. All of these locations are less than 3 hours easy ride from Brisbane, depending on which route you take
This is what I'm looking forward to over the next six months… but not the storms.
- AEST: Australian Eastern Standard Time.
- ATGATT: All The Gear All The Time.

Last week I served on a National Science Foundation peer review panel for community college proposals involving Advanced Technology Education (ATE). Twenty-two panels convened for a three days in
At a plenary session ending the meeting, panel leaders discussed ways to improve submissions. Here are the key points mentioned to which anyone writing an NSF grant, especially from community colleges, should attend:
1) Generally, planning grants are necessary (and usually sufficient) for development of a fundable ATE center proposal.
2) Proposals should include and emphasize metrics and objectives on student outcomes- program graduation data, job placement, enrollment, retention, under-represented students served.
3) Investigators should contact existing centers that relate to the field before submitting a proposal and that connection should be documented in the proposal.
4) Authors should conduct a data review to learn about the research on proposed activities.
5) An evaluation plan should link to objectives and provide a measure of accountability.
6) For a regional center that aims to increase the production of technical workers, the investigators should have data about workforce demand locally, not just nationally.
7) For continuation grants, include an evaluation report to document progress.
8) Focus on student learning outcomes, not just workforce needs. Try to find answers to the questions: What are students learning; how do we know?
9) Describe what success would look like. How would we know if project success is achieved?
10) Focus on soft skills, not just technology.

Students at STCC's Admission Office
Aligning High School and College Mathematics
At STCC like other community colleges, the majority of incoming students place into developmental mathematics. This means that they have to take preparatory courses – algebra or arithmetic – before beginning college level mathematics.
Looking at this issue, Steven Davis of the Davis Foundation and former owner of Lenox Saw commented recently that this is rework since students should have acquired those mathematics skills in High School. And to address this problem will require cooperation between high schools and colleges. Although traditionally, there has been a gap between these two segments of education, there are signs of new cooperation. An important example has taken place at Seminole State College of Florida, a community college near
"The main problem was obvious:
Only one school, Oviedo High, initially accepted the challenge. Seminole State College provided the course content and mentoring, and
Within a few years, Oviedo High reduced its remediation rate from 70 percent to 10 percent. A team of SSC and

Moreover, unemployment varies by demographic group with men, teenagers, minorities and the less educated the hardest hit:
Finally, Groshen documents that male-dominated industries have lost the most jobs with government, education and health the only areas to gain employment since the recession.
What will be the affects, then, of the Great Recession of 2008 on community colleges?
First, the downturn has exacerbated the funding shortfall for community colleges. Already, some colleges are turning away students as classes fill and others are reducing services to students. As is usual in economic declines, the poor and working-class – in this case community college students – are most affected by cuts in public college funding. Colleges will struggle for some time in trying to serve more students with less governmental support.
Second, high and persistent unemployment brings into question the value of particular college programs. Colleges will have to examine program offerings to ensure that education leads to the prospect of decent paying jobs. Colleges will want to align offerings to support local economic development efforts. In this regard, the value of dialogue over economic planning with state and local officials will increase.
Finally, the most important affect of the Great Recession of 2008 will be to convince Americans that college is a pre-condition for a decent paying job. The community college role will be permanently enhanced as more and more Americans view them as the portal for obtaining a college credential.

Large transfers into community colleges are counter-intuitive as one would expect students to transfer from them into baccalaureate institutions. This seems to indicate that students are choosing community colleges after trying other alternatives.

The Greening of STCC
Jeff Bigelow, tradesman and Dave Hill, head of the heating/cooling plant, know the value of the college's new solar trash compactors. These units scattered around campus serve as places to deposit trash and they use solar power to compact the contents. The result – trash is collected much less frequently and it trash takes up less space.
The college has made progress to reducing greenhouse gases while improving efficiency in a variety of other ways:
- An 85 kilowatt photovoltaic array has been installed on the roof of building twenty. These photovoltaic cells convert solar energy directly into electricity without burning any fuel.
- Geothermal heating and cooling is part of the renovation of building 11. Two deep wells will deliver 52 Fahrenheit degree water that will cool the building in the summer. During the winter, that same 52 degree water will be heated to provide heating. The circulating water will make the building seem to be in a constant 52 degree environment. When it's warm, let in some of the cool water; when it's cold outside, raise the temperature of the building from 52 degrees to 70 degrees.
- The college is planning a new heating and cooling plant that will also produce electricity. Called co-generation, the facility generates steam that runs electric generators; the heat produced is also used to heat (or cool) the campus. Another feature of this novel project is the fuel – either wood chips or natural gas. Hardwood chips are available in western
as a byproduct of lumber harvesting and furniture manufacture. Not only is wood less expensive than oil, but the money to purchase it stays in the local economy. AND wood in a modern heating/cooling plant burns cleaner than oil because it gives off no sulfur or nitrogen gases. Massachusetts
Many faculty and staff are excited about making sustainability a core principal of the college. Faculty members are discussing ways to incorporate energy conservation into courses and programs of study. The college is offering training courses on photovoltaic installation and building retrofitting to reduce energy. To lead these efforts STCC has established a Green Energy Council involving faculty, training staff and college facilities personnel.
STCC has seen the future and it is green.

Speeding Graduation for Community College Students
Much has been in the news about US college graduation rates. In his
A recently published book, Crossing the Finish Line: Completing College at America's Public Universities by William G. Bowen, Matthew M. Chingos & Michael S. McPherson lays out a detailed analysis of the stagnation of the
Finally a new report by the DEMOS Foundation – Work Less, Study More and Succeed – looks at financial factors that affect graduation by community college students. The reports conclusions are not surprising:
"Research clearly indicates that full-time enrollment and part-time employment of less than 15 hours per week provides the optimal situation for young students to concentrate on their studies and finish their degree." (URL: www.demos.org/ for the full report)
Unfortunately, State and federal financial aid has not kept up with college costs and the cost of living for our students. STCC students struggle to juggle studies, jobs and family responsibilities. The majority of our students work more than 15 hours a week – in fact, many are working a full-time.
We applaud our students who succeed such as the nursing class of 2009 shown above. But more of our students would graduate if state and national funding reflected President Obama's goal.

Like other students, Lyudmila's work-study has given her valuable work experience, increased her engagement on campus, and elevated her self-esteem. Although I know of no studies linking college-work study and student success, I believe that it does.
Now for my modest proposal: double the federal funding of college work-study funding. The federal work-study allocation is $980 Million - a very small fraction of federal outlays. For comparison, this amount is about the cost to the US taxpayers of three days of the Iraqi War.
Students have in the past supported themselves with outside employment while attending college. But the scarcity of jobs has dried up such opportunities. Meanwhile, our colleges, particularly community colleges, are flooded with new students seeking education and skills for jobs of the future. Helping them now with more work-study funds would increase student success while helping transition the country through this period of high unemployment. Lyudmila and millions like her would benefit.

STCC Allied Health Students
Accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), STCC is now starting our ten year accreditation review. This process requires the college to create a narrative of our present state, appraise our strengths and challenges and explain where, as an organization, we are headed. In short, describe, appraise, and project.
Since we had a positive experience using the techniques and philosophy of Appreciative Inquiry (AI) to produce a new strategic plan, we decided to use AI in accreditation. The AI approach aligns well with the accreditation process. Listed below is the way I envision the correspondence:
1) AI begins with an affirmative topic which would correspond to the subjects in the various NEASC standards.
2) AI then moves to discovery which would correspond to creating a narrative about that topic based on analysis and information.
3) AI moves on next to dream and design which in accreditation would correspond to appraising the college against the accreditation standard.
4) AI ends with destiny – what will be – which corresponds to the projecting the future of the college in the accreditation report.
On September 1st and 2nd we begin our accreditation with a summit for all working on the self-study. Throughout the year the committees in charge of the each of the eleven standards will meet, deliberate and begin writing. I expect that AI will infuse our work and enable us to produce a much more relevant analysis of the state of the college.

The title of this blog – Celebrating What's Right with Public Higher Education – was inspired by my experience with Appreciative Inquiry. Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is a method that can be used to improve organizations. In simple terms, AI directs us to increase the good stuff. This means that we focus on what is working in our organizations building to generate sustainable positive change. (If you want to know more about AI, go to the AI Commons hosted by
This spring we used AI principles and techniques to draft a new Strategic Plan for STCC. In my twenty years as a college president and chief academic officer, I have been involved in numerous planning efforts both at three colleges and at several non-profits organizations. In the past these efforts were less than satisfactory. The process consumed significant organizational time but the value added was low. Moreover, in the non-profit sector, as Jim Collins points out CEOs have Legislative but not Executive leadership. Change occurs at a college when individuals are convinced, not compelled.

The strategic planning process must take that salient fact into account.
Using AI made this planning process different. Many voices inside and external to the college were heard both through the interviews and planning process. Participants enjoyed the AI inspired exercises and the planning process moved quickly and efficiently.Significantly, the AI process liberated creativity, enthusiasm and energy at the college. At the end, we felt better about ourselves and our organization. To get more information about our process and the use of AI go to http://stccsp.wordpress.com/

Teaching Mathematics
I had a great time as may be seen from the picture. There is something magical when a class goes well and students are absorbed in learning.
While the mathematics is the same, other things have changed since I last taught. Professor Brewer's class is using software to do and record their homework. In this way the instructor can track the level of activity for each student and each student's progress.
This technology addresses what I consider one of the biggest problems in mathematics instruction – making sure students are practicing. Learning mathematics is like learning to play an instrument. No matter how many times you see someone else do it, you won't learn without your own diligent practice. It's like the old witticism: How do you get to Carnegie Hall? The answer is practice, practice, practice.
STCC has a great mathematics department dedicated to help all students learn. This was clear from the way Professor Brewer structured her class and the way she engaged students. Her department is leading efforts - part of the college's Achieving the Dream initiative - to improve student success in mathematics.

STCC hosted this weekend, July 4th and 5th, the 3rd annual Hoop City Jazz Festival. The music was great, the weather fine, the crowds enthusiastic and the campus green lush. Kudos go to John Osborne, the festival organizer. With support this festival has a chance to grow and become one of the leading summer events in New England. (photo shows Curtis and Adrienne Smith at Festival)
The closing of the Armory in 1968 by then Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, heralded the beginning of a rapid decline in metal manufacturing in Springfield and all of Western Massachusetts. While manufacturing continues to be an important industry locally, it has never regained its former prominence. Like older manufacturing communities, the City of Springfield is faced with the challenge of creating a new economy to provide decent paying jobs and taxes for City services. And the City needs to rethink its image and its direction.
All of this brings me back to the Hoop City Jazz festival. No other city can lay claim to having been the place where basketball was invented (in 1891 by James Naismith) nor does any other city host the Basketball Hall of Fame. Why not recast Springfield as Hoop City USA? With the growth of basketball internationally, this is a moniker that would be recognized around the world.

The Value of a College Degree
(for further information see http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/worklife/07/02/twoyear.degree/index )
Because of the stress on family finances, the economic value of a college degree has been a topic in the news. Typical of this debate was an article in the June 30 New York Times op ed blog where Liz Pulliam Weston, a personal finance columnist for MSN Money advises that "students borrow no more for their educations, in total, than they expect to make the first year out of school."
By this criterion, an associate degree is a good investment with full-time student costs including books and transportation less than $5000 per year - $2500 with grants - according to the US News and World Report.
The economic meltdown may result in a fundamental realignment of American higher education. A college degree is one of the most expensive purchases that most Americans make. Consumers – students and their parents – will choose colleges based on the return on what they have to pay. Colleges will be judged not just on reputation and amenities, but on a cost- benefit analysis. A key question that consumers will ask is, "How much will this college degree cost and to what kind of job and career will it lead?"

Community Colleges as a Path to Social Mobility
This entry is about social mobility, the ability of Americans to climb the social and economic ladder. I have used statistics to illustrate the key points because this topic is about numbers – how much Americans earn and the changes in how much they earn. But the basic point that I want to make is that for individuals, a college is essential for a decent paying job and for most Americans of modest means, community colleges are the entry point for higher education.
From Horatio Alger to Barack Obama the opportunity and expectation of doing better economically than one's parents is a foundation of our society. However, recent data shows that the ability of the average American to improve his or her lot has lessened over previous generations. The trend in America is less mobility and more income inequality. According to the May 14, 2009 New York Times article by David Leonhardt, the United States no longer has greater income mobility than many European countries. We now have roughly the same mobility as Britain but Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark surpass us. What this means is that in those latter countries families on average climb out of poverty faster than in the United States.
Additionally, income inequality even before the current recession has increased dramatically: for example the US Congressional Budget Office found that the real after-tax income of the wealthiest Americans – those in the top 1 per cent – rose by 176 per cent from 1979 to 2004. Meanwhile those in the poorest 20 percent of the population saw their income go up just 9 per cent in that same 25 year period.
One tried and true way to increase social mobility is through education. And today, that means college as most decent paying jobs require at least some post-secondary education.
In our economy, the value of a high school education has stagnated while that of a college education has grown. The figure that is most often cited is the disparity between a high school diploma and a bachelor's degree. According to the US census, in 2006 Adults age 18 and older with a bachelor's degree earned an average of $51,554 in 2004, while those with a high school diploma earned $28,645.
The point of entry for most Americans of modest means is public colleges and especially the community colleges. In Massachusetts, for example, last fall 79,000 undergraduates attended the University of Massachusetts and the state colleges and an additional 79,000 at the Commonwealth's fifteen community colleges. These figures show that in the Commonwealth, community colleges serve half of all undergraduates. But as might be expected those who are first generation in college and ethnic minorities use community colleges as their point of entry: in Massachusetts 62% of all ethnic minority students start at our community colleges.

Introduction to What's Right with Public Higher Education
(For more about STCC, please visit our website at www.stcc.edu)
As the title indicates, the purpose of this blog is celebrate what is right about our college, public higher education in Massachusetts and public higher education nationally. In this era of instant news that highlights all the tragedies of the world, it's especially important to remind ourselves of what is working in our society. And public higher education is working by giving opportunity for undergraduate education in Massachusetts to one hundred eighty thousand credit students (180,000), by educating our citizens for the jobs of the future, and for providing access to those of modest means including the growing Latino and African-American population. Moreover, public higher education does all this effectively squeezing out efficiencies from limited state support.
To put a face on public higher education, let me introduce you to Madeline Lopez, 27, a single parent of eight-year-old Destiny. She just graduated from Springfield Technical Community College in Liberal Arts Transfer, and next fall will be entering Mount Holyoke College. Madeline will be studying pre-med, on track to become a doctor, and is a strong role model for her daughter.
Madeline is representative of her fellow community college students. They are varied in age, ethnic background, and country of origin. Often, as Madeline, they are coming from a low-income situation, and are the first generation in their family to go to college. They often work full time, as Madeline does, and may be supporting a family.
Madeline is grateful for the support and encouragement of her teachers and counselors at STCC. This was her second try at college, and she not only got back on course educationally, she achieved a perfect 4.0 average for her final two semesters.
Madeline says, "Education is number one –- it's the key to everything." And that's what she's teaching Destiny.

Bonaire Named One of the World's Top Ten Island Escapes
Many visitors to Bonaire "catch the bug"--that undefined magic that ensnares nearly all visitors to the island, and it is the reason that most of Bonaire's tourists return time and time again. And now, travel blog Global Grasshopper has named Bonaire in the top ten list of most tropical and beautiful island escapes from around the world.
Bonaire is the only Caribbean island named to the list, sharing the honor with other destinations off the coasts of southeast Asia, India, Africa and Hawaii. The Global Grasshopper article cites Bonaire's marine sanctuary and beautiful coral reefs, along with iguanas, flamingos, salt flats and rock art as reasons why its beauty never fails to charm its visitors. And, it goes without saying that the popularity of Bonaire as a destination for world class diving, windsurfing, snorkeling, swimming and sunbathing is unequaled.

However, there are exciting new options for shopping with the opening last week of the new Van den Tweel Supermarket, the first type of such supermarket on Bonaire, and an extension of a Dutch chain market.
Van den Tweel offers a large variety of Dutch products, including specialty meats, cheeses, produce, and bakery items.

Dutch Antilles Express Moving Forward with Plans to Reinstate Service to Bonaire
There's more regional airline news today as Dutch Antilles Express (DAE) has announced that the new management has reached an agreement with lessors to return the same aircraft that previously had been used to transport passengers between Bonaire, Curacao, and Aruba. Until the ATR42 arrives and is re-introduced into the fleet (planned for January), DAE continues to provide route service between Curacao and Aruba with its Fokker 100 jet.
With the January re-initiation of service between Curacao and Bonaire with the ATR42 aircraft, DAE will begin with two daily flights between the islands, as well as two daily flights between Curacao and Aruba. Plans call for the flight frequency to be increased to four daily trips between Curacao and Bonaire and between Aruba and Cura�ao once the additional crew returns from training in mid-February.
The interior of the ATR42 has been fully refurbished, as part of the effort and commitment of the new Dutch Antilles Express to improve the experience of its passengers. Dutch Antilles Express will increase its fleet of ATRs to a total of three, with two additional ATR42, from the same lessor, arriving in April, 2012. Plans also call for many new routes and increased flights and destinations, but the general focus will remain on quality transportation between the islands of the Dutch Antilles.

Yoga Retreat: Ulta Sadhana "Yogic Reversal Of Negativity"
Starts: 4:00 PM
Location: 243 Greenwood Brook Road Industry
Positive experiences are what bring us joy and fulfillment. We seek them for ourselves and we seek to give them to others. Today, negativity is a, seemingly unavoidable, part of life. But this does not have to be.
Yogis are the masters of reality, not by creating their own, but by accessing the actual reality that is available to all of us, all the time. The principle of negativity has a finite potential. Destruction, death, decay, all have an end point. But the principle of positivity: growth, evolution, improvement, does not. This ultimately proves that, in reality, all negativity is impermanent.
In order to change an action we have to apply an equal, yet opposing reaction. This is Ulta Sadhana, consciously applying the reverse to our negative actions, emotions and emanations in all of life's scenarios. Ulta Sadhana is the means, the method and the mentality to rid your life of negativity, right here, right now, reversing every negative situation into a positive experience.
Come join us for a weekend steeped in reversing destruction, decay or death and enhancing growth, improvement or life: Ulta Sadhana!
Our retreat includes:
- 3 hours of teachings, application, and discussion on Ulta Sadhana
- 8 hours of Asana (postures), Pranayam (breath extension) and meditation intensives
- Sattvic (balanced) vegan fare-prepared by experienced dedicated practitioners and chefs
- Pradakshina-a meditative hike, circumambulating our Guru's practice temple, a traditional practice to receive the emanations of accomplished practitioners (optional)
See our complete retreat schedule

All-inclusive Weekend Retreat price: $389. Includes all programs, meals and 2 nights' accommodation (singles share a room; couples get a private room). Private rooms are available for singles—contact us for price and availability.

Crash and resurrect.
Something funny happened last night. Any sane-minded person wouldn't label me as a 'tech-savvy' kinda guy but I had the nerve to disassemble my desktop just because my DVD tray wasn't working. My LG DVD GSA-4167B player was working just fine until a week ago so I had to do something about it. I get worried that I may not even know how to operate the computer if my condition worsens later on so I figured I had to do something about it right now rather than later. So your humble blogger decides to experiment a little with 'reverse engineering' and ends up with all drives (floppy, DVD and HDD) being undetectable. Smart. Real smart.
Before: cluttered wiring inside the desktop, single DVD-RAM tray.
Moving on to plan B, I called up the best person for the job within my neighbourhood, Thean Soon. Even with his graveyard shift this whole week, I was both relieved and grateful that he offered to take a look at it tonight. We sat over at Pelita Samudera Nasi Kandar Jalan Tengah and I told him about how tough things have been in the past few weeks and that it's been really sad to have missed all those gatherings together with the guys.
Thanks to Thean Soon's expertise, a lot of recycling of old PC peripherals (added the old cd-rw drive and old SCSI HDD) and spending 5 hours right in front of the computer all night long, it's all fixed now! I'm running on a clean OS and lovin' it! I may not be smart but I'm tenacious enough, no?
After: DVD-RAM tray and CD-RW drive is patched up. Seems to work okay now.

I was wondering if putting a silhouette project on my Healthy Living blog site would really work, then I realized being creative is a very healthy thing, so it works! I don't just use oils, I try to use my mind as well!
Don't know what to do with those ice cream buckets you keep collecting? Thanks to my husband for all those empty ice cream buckets and thanks to my niece for her suggestion on how to use those empty containers. Here is a great Halloween vinyl project! You can leave the handles as is or find some ribbon or scrap material to wrap the handle in.
The 4 pictures above show all sides to this one bucket, I was trying to make it less scary.
I did this one in all black, except for the Spook-tacular!
Just one side to this bucket!
