We had more questions than a 3-year-old this year
A lot of questions were answered in 2012, such as this one that we posed to Long Beach City Prosecutor Doug Haubert:
Question: We're going to ask you the same question we asked police Chief Jim McDonnell: Have you ever committed any misdemeanors?
Answer: And I bet he gave the correct answer, which is, "Not that I can recall."
Q: He said "no." "Not that I can recall" means yes. I will tell you that I can keep my misdemeanors to two a day if I don't leave the house.
A: We should look into that.
Every Monday for nearly two years we've interviewed local people of note - a farmer, a baker, a former governor, a mayor or two. A big part of our questionable 2012 concerned our exploratory committee to gauge whether we should run for the Long Beach 5th District City Council seat, one that's now occupied by Councilwoman Gerrie Schipske. We talked to Long Beach Mayor Bob Foster:
Q: How do you like our chances?
A: I love your chances! I love your chances!
Q: I just want to run for the 5th because it's so easy to run.
A: That's unfair.
We've already got former mayor, the beloved Beverly O'Neill's endorsement in our pocket. We asked the unflappable three-termer if she ever gets mad.
Q: I've seen your irritated-mom look, but you've never exploded.
A: Yeah, I get mad. I kind of had a reputation for getting mad at people who messed with me.
Eventually, we took the bull by the horns and chatted with Schipske herself. She denied that a trained chicken could run the 5th District and suggested that we attend her seminar on how to run for office. She said one of her competitors in the last election took it.
Q: And he lost, so it's a crappy seminar.
A: No, I give you the tools. How you use them is up to you.
Q: Can I count on you for a lawn sign with my picture on it?
A: I don't know if I want that image on my lawn.
We rarely squabble with our subjects. We are nothing if not cordial. But we did a bit of a spit take when former political consultant and current bar owner Tracy Kittinger told us she "loves" Dick Cheney.
Q: He shot his friend in the face with a shotgun!
A: We all make dumb mistakes.
We asked Howard Chambers, who retired as Lakewood's city manager after 34 years and then came out of retirement to sign a three-year contract, just what he found so darned attractive about Lakewood.
A: I love Lakewood! I love the community and I love the people here. I look at other cities and I'd rather be in Lakewood than 99 percent of them.
Q: Come on! How about Carmel?
A: I'd rather live in Lakewood than Carmel.
Q: Long Beach?
A: Ha!
Here are some more quick Q's and A's from 2012:
Q: How long is a yellow light?
A: (City Traffic Engineer Dave Roseman) Depends on the speed limit. It's between 3.1 and 4.8 seconds.
Q: Do you ever fly out of LAX just for the sheer joy of it?
A: (Long Beach Airport Director Mario Rodriguez) LAX? Are you kidding? Why do that to yourself? At Long Beach you pay less for more convenience and at LAX you pay more for inconvenience.
Q: Do you still buy blood from hobos?
A: (American Red Cross Greater Long Beach Chapter CEO Margaret Arbini-Madonna) What? No, we don't pay anyone for their blood, but we ask everyone to donate blood. For every pint you give you save three lives.
Q: Could you beat me in a race if I drove your Lexus and you drove my four-cylinder Honda?
A: (Jim Michaelian, president and CEO of the Grand Prix Association of Long Beach) All I remember about your racing ability was the time we suited you up and tried to put you in Paul Tracy's car and we couldn't fit you in the car.
We guess our favorite chat of the year was with the great George Deukmejian, who was California governor from 1983 to 1991.
Q: The best thing for you is the new courthouse being named for you. That's huge.
A: What a wonderful, amazing honor. I came to Long Beach in 1958 and didn't know anyone except my wife, and now to have a courthouse named for me is really thrilling. Nothing I ever expected. Now the challenge is to stay alive until it opens.
Q: No, you're fine. Most people are dead before something is named after them. Just being alive long enough to know is good enough. You can die happy now.
A: Thanks.

Event Details
LNY & Reid Bingham present RGB LED PXL
Workshop 1: 3 – 6
Workshop 2: 7 – 10 pm
Evening class: Adults Only $20 | Class
Bingham's RGB LED PXL is a very simple glowing, color changing, battery powered ambient light. A clothespin and brass fastener are used as a switch to turn the simple LED circuit on and off. At the end of the workshop when all the students have built their own PXL we create light paintings and and animated gifs. Two sessions will be held. (20 ppl per session) The evening session will be accompanied by music and a reception. This workshop is apart of LNY's eight week residency at the Solo(s) Project House, titled "P R O T O C O L".
LNY (Lunar New Year) is an artist and interloper based in Newark, New Jersey. His work is ephemeral, location sensitive and takes the form of murals, drawings on paper and urban interventions. His practice is akin to graphic journalism as he both visualizes local narratives and reflects issues affecting the communities that his art inhabits.
Psychogeographies, politics, struggle, ethnicity and extreme emotion are all present in his work and are often expressed through a heavy use of vernacular symbolism, portraits of local residents and the creation of animal hybrids.
P R O T O C O L is an eight week residency at Solo(s) Project House that aims to question both the monetary and creative process working in public space. For this project the artist will create a limited edition print that will only be released once one hundred backers commit to it's production. The money collected will in turn be used to create public art in and around Newark. During this time the gallery will serve as an open studio, an evolving installation, a meeting place for workshops, screenings, readings and a market place where the private art is released only after it has funded the creation of free public art. This open laboratory welcomes your participation and experimentation along with the artist.
P R O T O C O L takes inspiration from the Street Performer Protocol: an e-commerce mechanism that facilitates the creation of public works by collecting donations which are held by a third party and only released once the aimed amount is reached. The work created is then put in the public domain.

New SAP® Social Contact Intelligence Analytic Application Leverages Power of SAP HANA Platform to Deliver Unmatched Customer Insight and Intelligence
NEW YORK - SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced the release of the SAP® Social Contact Intelligence analytic application. Powered by the SAP HANA platform, the new application allows businesses to unlock sentiment and contact insights from both social media channels and internal, company-owned sources to better target and influence prospects and customers in a variety of ways. The announcement was made from the CRM Evolution event, being held Aug. 19 – 21 in New York City.
Sales, marketing and customer service professionals today struggle to access and analyze the large amounts of internal customer data stored in disparate systems within their organizations as well as external social media data beyond the reach of their IT systems. Often they must rely on outdated information, which can cause them to miss out on profitable cross- and up-sell opportunities, or incomplete information, which can lead them to rely on only gut instincts when making strategic decisions such as offering incentives to engage customers and prospects.
With SAP Social Contact Intelligence, marketing professionals can incorporate social sentiment insights directly into their campaigns to more easily identify and target prospects and influencers and help drive incremental sales. Additionally, sales professionals can gain deeper insights into customers, allowing them to quickly identify the most influential and relevant contacts at an account and service professionals can analyze product and service complaints from social channels to proactively identify trouble spots and take preventive measures.
SAP Social Contact Intelligence is part of the SAP® Customer Engagement Intelligence solution, a set of applications powered by SAP HANA designed to enable real-time insight from customer data, which allows for highly personalized and targeted initiatives that can help grow both revenue and profit for organizations. SAP Customer Engagement Intelligence can leverage powerful text analysis and predictive engines within SAP HANA to bring the power of advanced natural language processing (NLP) and complex predictive algorithms directly to the fingertips of sales, marketing and service executives in an intuitive, practical and user-friendly way without the need for data scientists and PhDs.
"We saw an opportunity with SAP Customer Engagement Intelligence to influence our customers' buying behavior and reduce product return rates," said Michael Kuenzl, vice president of IT systems at HSE24, Europe's leading home shopping retailer. "Each year, over 11.5 million HSE24 parcels are sent out to our 1.5 million customers and we estimate that decreasing our return rate by only one percent can lead to 7-digit Euro savings on the bottom line. SAP Customer Engagement Intelligence enables our marketing teams to uncover hidden trends that help drive product returns and build high-precision marketing campaigns to influence customers' return behavior."
SAP Customer Engagement Intelligence comprises four fully integrated offerings:
"Customer segmentation models that took more than 12 hours to complete today can be run 985 times faster," said Bernd Seidel, Business Solution Management, Thomas Cook AG. "That makes a big difference to our business users allowing them to experiment with different segmentation models and receive instant responses so they have the ability to build more personalized and targeted sales and marketing campaigns."

When properly maintained, ice cream machines can last between 10 and 20 years. However, these pieces of foodservice equipment offer a few tell-tale signs they are reaching the end of their service lives.
Here are four signs that it might be time for a foodservice operator to replace an ice cream machine.
Longer Run Time: If the refrigeration system runs longer than normal on the initial freeze down in the morning, this may be a signal to change the scraper blades, clean the condenser or request a service call.
Frequent Service Calls: When the service calls become too frequent or cost-prohibitive, then the operator should evaluate whether replacing or repairing the unit will provide the greater return on investment and act accordingly.
Excessive Wear and Tear: Most blades have wear lines that help determine when the operator needs to replace them. Leaking can be an indication the O ring has a tear. A simple replacement may address this. However, excessive wear and tear on an older unit means replacement should be considered.
Refrigeration Failure: Ice cream freezes at between 18 and 21 degrees F. If the unit cannot maintain the proper temperature, or the compressor needs replacing, it may make more sense to retire the machine.

Bloomberg's Latest: Mandatory Food Composting
(NEWSER) – New York City has been experimenting with pilot food-composting programs—and it's worked surprisingly well, officials say. Now, Michael Bloomberg is pushing to make composting mandatory, as it is in Seattle, San Francisco, and many other cities, the New York Timesreports. The program, in which residents drop food waste into picnic-basket size containers at home, will begin as voluntary; residents will likely be required to comply within a few years, authorities note. "This is going to be really transformative," says a deputy mayor. "You want to get on a trajectory where you're not sending anything to landfills."

Now available: PoolLab 1.0**
PrimeLab 1.0 & PoolLab
The photometry is a method of analysis which is often used. Whether public bathhouse, food and beverage industry, laboratories, or industrial disinfection - are everywhere photometer used for the determination of concentrations in solutions. The PrimeLab of Pool-i.d. is the world's first photometer for the entire visible color spectrum with only one light source and only one sensor. The unique sensor of JENCOLOR, combined with the 10-year experience of Pool-id in water analysis, this innovation made possible. In addition, the PrimeLab / JENCOLOR sensor measures with a hitherto unknown devices with photometer accuracy. The Bluetooth technology (select models) and a programmed specifically for the PrimeLab PC software makes it easy to manage soielend measurement and customer data.» Photometer
Pooltesters are mainly used in the wellness sector and, even if the name doesn't hint at it, they are also used for the analysis of drinking and industrial waters. In many countries, for example, drinking and industrial waters must be disinfected with chlorine which requires that they be subjected to consistent controls. hotels worldwide already use the Pool-i.d. Pooltester for guest swimming pools, and also to determine the quality of their drinking and general waters. Pool-i.d. Pooltesters are even used by well-known international aid organizations to also control drinking water plants in crisis regions. Here too, people rely on Pool-i.d.'s quality standards. » Pooltester
Test strips for the measurement of water values are enjoying greater popularity, because they provide a simple and rapid method for quick analysis. When compared to the visual measurements of the Pooltester, there is naturally a significant disadvantage in the size of the coloured field and thus in the possibility of making an exact comparison on the colour scale. The shelf-life of the Test Strips is substantially less than that of the reagent tablets that are being used in the Pool Testers. Yet this is compensated for by the simplicity of use, the ability to obtain rapid measurements, and optimal pricing. » Test strips
Without requiring additional reagents (tablets, drops, etc.), the Electronic Meters offer an absolutely professional way to measure various water values; such as, for example, conductivity, salinity (total dissolved solids), and pH value. The established value is displayed on the device within seconds after dipping the device in sample liquid. The sensitive electrodes, however, should always be kept damp. They should becalibrated at regular intervals, preferably before each measurement, by using a reference fluid. Both the batteries and the electrodes can be changed. The working range of the Electronic Meter is between 0 - 50°C; depending on the model temperature can be compensated for by determining the measurement value. » Electronic Meters
Pool-i.d. comparators provide you with access to professional water analysis. While these comparators are also, like Pooltesters, visual measurement devices, the arrangement of the measured colour to the scale – and the determination of the measurement value – is much more precise with comparators because the measurement is compared on a rotating colour scale (colour disc). there are no measurement results "between" individual colour scales. ergonomic design and high quality materials also simplify measurements. By using the adapter that is supplied with each comparator, the sample path-length can be extended and additional ranges can be measured. » Comparator-Kit
In this chapter, we define "Special Processes" as methods which are not, or are hardly, offered through classical measurement methods – such as Pooltesters – that is, a special process to determine the values. For example, the Pool-i.d tablet count process (which causes the colour in the sampled water to abruptly change at a point when reagent tablets are continuously added) functions with reagent tablets and not with liquid reagents which can falsify results when different drop sizes are created depending on the pressure applied to the bottle. » Special Processes
Balanced Water Kits are a combination of the comparator and the special method of range pool-idDepending on the equipment, the set erlaub the measurement of chlorine and pH using the comparator method, alkalinity and calcium hardness and cyanuric acid using the tablet count with the Nessler (turbidity method). The summary of these parameters in a set is the handiness and the needs of specific users, such as the boiler industry, owed.
» Balanced Water Kits
The need for the provision of certain types of bacteria is sometimes required by law, but on the other hand, given generally for health reasons, as well as to disinfectant to be used to vote on certain pathogens targeted.With the pool i.d. Bacterial tests you have a simple, reliable and cost effective product on hand as Coliform bacteria to detect targeted.Automotive application, "DipSlide tests" among other things to test for bacteria in water tanks, with industrial users such as the leather industry, but also for surface measurement, eg in swimming pools.» Bacteria testing
Reagent tablets offer the highest level of assurance that always the exact amount of reagent needed will be used. Most marketed tablet types, such as DPD for determining Chlorine in water, are regulated by strict international standards aimed at guaranteeing that all tablets with that designation (e.g. DPD 1) can also be used in all designated measurement devices made by any manufacturer. Pooli. d. devices and reagents can therefore be combined with other manufacturer's reagents, and this is also true the other way around. One of the questions discussed often is the difference between RAPID and Photometer tablets. Basically both detect the same content but are different in one important point: RAPID tablets contain a material which "bursts" the tablet, e.g. chemical pulp that expands upon contact with water. This "burst material" would, however, disrupt the light ray of the photometer (suspended particles) which is why RAPID tablets should never be used with electronic devices such as photometers. » Reagents

Booksellers' and Auction Catalogs
Another collection important to the history of the American book trades is that of booksellers' and book auctioneers' catalogs which include examples from the beginnings of the American wholesale and retail book trades. Catalogs issued through 1840 are fully cataloged online. Those that appeared to the present are not cataloged and are filed alphabetically by firm name.
Recently, a good deal of interest has been expressed in making these voluminous and almost impenetrable sources of book history better available through compiling and filming of complete runs of a firm's catalogs.
The Society published Robert B. Winans's Descriptive Checklist of Book Catalogues Separately Printed in America, 1694-1800 in 1981. It also expects to publish Winans's companion work, a checklist of book catalogues printed in newspapers. His work and George L. McKay's American Book Auction Catalogues, 1713-1934 (New York, 1937), introduced by Clarence S. Brigham, provide annotated guides to AAS holdings.

Did you
know that professional development can be achieved online by
recording sessions that have occurred via interactive television?
The following video clips show stages of learning choreography.
Teachers in elementary and secondary schools were coached in
person and via observation and questioning during a multipoint
interactive television series in schools around New Jersey.
The clips below can be used by you, the educator, to learn how
to implement a choreographic routine.
I'm Dale Schmid, Visual and Performing Arts Coordinator for the New Jersey State Department of Education's Office of Standards and Professional Development. What you are about to view is excerpted from a seminar on the use of interactive television as a teaching tool. As we move into the information age, interactive television provides us the opportunity to expand our horizons, and, at the same time, preserve an element of humanity, through the use of technology. Used wisely, interactive television can provide students the opportunity to communicate across great distances with other students, teachers and artists.
We have divided this presentation into four segments.:

In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, the University reserves the right to release personally identifiable information from the educational records of a student, without written consent, to University officials (faculty, staff, and agents of the University having responsibility for working with that student in admissions, registration, advisement, housing, counseling, student discipline, teaching, financial aid, payment of fees, or any other activity directly related to the student's academic program, or pursuant to law or governmental regulation, including, but not limited to contractors, consultants, volunteers, and other outside parties to whom the University has outsourced services or functions it would otherwise use employees to perform) with a legitimate educational interest. A University official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review the contents of an educational record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities. The University reserves the right to disclose educational records, including, but not limited to, disciplinary records, to another institution at which the student seeks or intends to enroll, without the consent of the student. In addition to the aforementioned rationale, the University may elect disclose educational records of a student, without the consent of the student, to the following parties or under the following conditions:

Getting to know Jenn Bostic
Listen to Jenn Bostic on iHeartRadio
If you've ever listened to Jenn Bostic's music, the immediate thought that comes to mind is that her songs are deeply personal. She explains that her album is basically her "captured in one CD." Having lost her father at only 10 years old, Jenn launched into her music career, determined to share her story with the world.
[Buy Jenn's album Jealous on iTunes]
The singer/songwriter stopped by iHeartRadio HQ in New York City, where she talked about her very personal songs, how Nashville has influenced her music, her album coming over to the U.S. and more. Check it out below:
How did you get into music in the first place?
I have been playing music for as long as I can remember. Back when I was growing up my family always had sing-alongs after dinner and my dad played guitar, piano, he was a song-writer on the side of being a businessman as well. Unfortunately I lost him in a car accident when I was 10 years old, and music kind of just became the one that let me connect with him. Song writing became the therapy for that and now I mean you know 20 years later.
What artist did you listen to growing up?
My dad always had Emmylou Harris on, that was his favorite, and her voice was just so pure. I know my parents were fans of Bonnie Raitt and that like [an] unmistakable voice. Oh my goodness I love her voice she could make you feel any lyrics she sings. And I was a fan of, I was of course in middle school, high school, was like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Spice Girls age which was amazing, right? In my hairbrush singing those songs! But yeah lots of, lots of pop stuff I guess, and also a little bit of Music Theater. I loved doing shows in high school and things like that.
You were in your school's plays?
Yes, I was the princess in "Once Upon A Mattress" when I was a senior.
What artists do you listen to now?
I still love Bonnie Raitt. I got to see her in concert last year for the first time which was unbelievable. I love Sara Bareilles, Sara McLaughlan, Marc Broussard are some of my favorites as well. Ed Sheeran, so lots of different ones. I love hearing different styles too, to kind of influence what I'm doing.
How would you describe your music?
It's emotive pop singer/songwriter. It's got a little adult contemporary, pop, with a touch of country. The genres are blending [together] so much nowadays. But I'm writing songs straight from my heart, straight from life experiences or movies I see, stories I'm told, so each song is really emotional. I feel like emotive pop is probably the best way to describe that.
"Jealous Of The Angels" is obviously a personal song, inspired by your father. Was it really difficult to write?
Yes, I actually tried to write a song similar a few times and never quite got there. Where that feeling of weight had just been lifted from my shoulders. But I think it was 2 or 3 years ago now that I sat down and wrote that one, and it was just everything I needed to say. You know, it gave me the time to process through what had happened and get it out there. And then once the song came out, I started playing it live and started to see that reaction. People became so vulnerable in sharing their own stories once they saw how vulnerable I was being on stage. The first few times I played it I didn't make it through, without crying at the end of it, and I think there was a lot of healing in that for me. But then to see others kind of be comforted by that and open up the opportunity to talk about something that deep. I think has been a really beautiful helpful thing, you know coming out of the worst tragedy of my life.
Is it hard to sing still, now?
It is and I think some days it's kind of more hopeful cause I'm hoping that somebody will find some comfort in it. But like last month I was on the Grand Ole Opry stage and I was singing it very close to Father's Day, and of course that was a really emotional experience for me with my family in the audience. But it's just one of those things that it's always going to be a little difficult I think to sing.
You performed at the Opry around Father's Day? Was that especially difficult for you?
It was right near father's day. It was the fourteenth; I think father's day was the sixteenth. Actually the first time I was at the Opry I sang it on the anniversary of his passing. So each time it's been like very significant moments. So it has, those are definitely harder regardless of the fact that [it was] that stage, which is like this magical experience. But being on those dates it was, it was really hard and I also, towards the end, I got more emotional than normal. But it was just the sense of peace as well. A friend of mine had a dream a few years back that she told me about right after I had written the song. Where she said, "You know your dad came to me in this dream and told me that, you know, that he is watching over you, that he's at every show and he's so proud of you." And so in those moments I kind of had that affirmation of like "he's here, you know like his presence is here, his spirit is here."
Does he ever come to you in your dreams?
No, no not yet. I'm hoping maybe someday. You never know.
The video to that song has been covered in YouTube around 400 times! How does that make you feel to bring people together, especially for something so personal and deep?
It's so humbling and overwhelming, my goodness! When I started to see those cover videos come in I was like "Oh my goodness." Like, you know, this is a song that we just created that was so personal. I had no idea that we'd even touch people the way it has. And then to see, especially young girls who are aspiring singers, to pick a song that I had something to do with, create this cover that's such an honor. And also on the YouTube video, if you go read the comments, it's people sharing like a lot of information, becoming vulnerable on a YouTube page. And other viewers are responding to that and kind of being like "Hang in there, I know what you're going through" and like to see that, like fans just doing that on their own, is unbelievable.
You also have your single "Not Yet." What was the inspiration behind that?
That was a very frustrated moment in the music business. As a indie artist it's a slow climb in getting where you can visualize yourself being someday. And I felt like I was in such a season of, you know, just knocking on doors that weren't opening and remained closed no matter what I did. I was just in a moment of opening my heart and talking to my producer about it, and I was like "I'm so frustrated." And he said "You know we got to write this." And in that song, and in that moment, it was one of those defining moments in my life where I said "You know what, no matter what I'm not giving up on this. This is what I feel like I was born to do, I feel like this is my path." So even if, you know, I don't reach XYZ level of success, like this makes me happy singing and performing and writing makes me happy. And I feel like every time I get to sing that song on stage, it's such an affirmation reminder of like "Yeah!" you know. It's been really neat to see other people being encouraged by it too.
How has Nashville influenced your music, because you've performed at the Opry and you've been recognized by the country music community. But your music is not necessarily like Blake Shelton or Keith Urban, country music?
Well, I put out a pop-country record in 2009. It was very in the box pop-country. I shopped with some record labels in Nashville, and they told me I was too pop for country and too country for pop. I think that was such a great thing to have happened because I had the opportunity to really like step back and reflect and be like, "Okay, why did I start writing these in the first place?" "Why do I love this so much?" You know, like, what are the topics that like really make my heart beat faster? And I had the opportunity to tap into that and that's what Jealous is. The deepest moments of my life or the things that I've seen in life that just really hit home for me.
Tell us about your album Jealous?
I've got so many songs that I've written over the years, but I think it's the collection of the best 11 songs that I've ever written. I mean "Jealous of the Angels" obviously hitting really home for the biggest thing in my life, also "Not Yet" being that frustrated season, and then "Change" which is the first track on there. That one I wrote, it was the first song I wrote after those label meetings in Nashville where they told me I was too pop for country and too country for pop, and the hook line is don't make me change. So those things are fun and then I've got a bunch on there about my husband who I've been married for two years now. We dated long distance for a long time, so there's that in there, and some wedding songs and things like that. So it's a lot of me captured in one CD.
The album has been released in the UK already. How does it feel to bring it over to your home country and share with your fans here?
Awesome. It's crazy because when we released it there, I had so many fans that were like "Well when is it coming here?" And at that point, with the indie budget, we didn't really know. It was kind of like "Well, when it makes sense I guess." And now that it's finally out it just feels so good to be out there on the road singing some of these songs that I wasn't necessarily singing before the album came out. And just promoting it, just really sharing, it's so much fun. It's just overwhelming and humbling, it's great.
What's next?
I'm in the middle of a tour and I'm thinking about a tour in Europe at the end of the year. And then currently writing for the next album. So hopefully that will be out in May of 2014.

USC ties for fourth nationally in Hollings Scholarship winners
By Steven Powell, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-1923
Four rising juniors at the University of South Carolina have been chosen as 2012 Ernest F. Hollings Scholars. This competitive scholarship was awarded to just 115 undergraduates studying oceanic and atmospheric sciences nationwide.
Parker Prioleau Barfield, Drew Michael DeLorenzo, Jaclyn Kate Fisher and Craig Andrew Raffenberg bring the total number of USC Hollings Scholars to 17 over the eight years of this competition, with 12 won in the past three years.
The University of Miami's seven winners were the most in the country. With four awardees, USC ties two other schools for fourth nationally.
The Hollings Scholarship Program provides academic assistance (up to $8,000 a year for two years) and a paid ($6,500) internship during the summer at a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) facility.
The program helps educate juniors and seniors about the nation's long history of ocean and atmospheric stewardship, reflected in the dedicated career of Hollings, a retired U.S. senator from South Carolina. Hollings Scholars are expected to become scientists, policy-makers and educators in the future oceanic and atmospheric workforce.
Carolina's applicants were assisted by Claudia Benitez-Nelson, director of the marine science program with a joint appointment in the department of earth and ocean sciences. "The Hollings Scholarship is one of the top honors that an undergraduate majoring in marine science can receive and highlights the outstanding students within our marine science program here at USC," Benitez-Nelson said.
Hollings Scholars were aided by the University's Office of Fellowships and Scholar Programs. Carolina students interested in applying for national fellowships are encouraged to contact the office for assistance.
Parker Prioleau Barfield is a recipient of the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation Scholarship as well as the Thornwell Scholars award. He is an anthropology and art studio major in the College of Arts and Sciences, and is interested in the fields of ethnobiology, ethnoecology, conservation biology and natural resource management. He was a research assistant in professor Jerry Hilbish's ecological genetics laboratory and professor Brian Helmuth's ecological physiology laboratory. Outside of class, Barfield is active with the USC Outdoor Recreation Program, and Hill of the Lord University Church.
Drew Michael DeLorenzo is a member of the South Carolina Honors College, double majoring in marine science and biochemistry and molecular biology, with a minor in business. A recipient of the Cooper Scholarship, Traci Heincelman Memorial Scholarship, and a marine science department scholarship, he is also a member of Alpha Lambda Delta, Golden Key International and Sigma Alpha Lambda honor societies. As a Magellan scholar, he works as a research assistant with professor Jerry Hilbish, focusing on population genetics and investigating how climate change affects mussel populations in Europe. He is editor-in-chief of MarSci, the education outreach officer of Students Engaged in Aquatic Sciences (SEAS), and also maintains aquariums for the university. He plans to earn a doctorate in marine science and utilize genetics and molecular biology for coral reef conservation and restoration.
Jaclyn Kate Fisher is a marine science major in the South Carolina Honors College. A recipient of the McKissick Scholarship, she is active with the Honors Council, Alpha Lambda Delta, SEAS, Golden Key Honors Society, National Society of Collegiate Scholars (NSCS) and the Honors Green Team. She plans to pursue a research career, focusing on conservation and the human impact on marine ecosystems.
Craig Andrew Raffenberg is a Capstone Scholar in the department of earth and ocean sciences, pursuing a major in marine science. In addition to being the recipient of the McKissick Scholarship, he is a member of SEAS, the scuba club and NSCS. He volunteered as a lab assistant for professor Richard Long, examining marine bacteria. Raffenberg is currently interested in doing field research on coral reefs and their rapid disappearance and plans to complete a doctorate in marine biology.

You can make the colors of icing you see using gel icing colors, which are more concentrated than the liquid icing colors found at the grocery store. The instructions for the caterpillar will tell you which colors to buy. Simply take a small amount of icing from the jar using a toothpick, and stir into white icing.

Some see religion as an unnecessary burden because it requires time and money. While time cannot be recovered, money has a way of yielding returns on investment. Research by economists Luc Renneboog and Christophe Spaenjers (both Tilburg University, Netherlands) suggests that religious households tend to save money and plan for the future more than non-religious households, and, further breaking their results down, that Catholics attach greater importance to thrift and less importance to risk than Protestants.

3 Men Charged in Money Laundering Scheme
PHOENIX (AP) - The owners of a luxury car dealership and jewelry store are charged with money laundering after authorities say the three men agreed to accept thousands of dollars from undercover agents posing as drug dealers for vehicles and jewelry while offering to hide the transactions from the federal government.
Hamid and Saeid Salari, owners of Luxor Auto Group in Scottsdale, are charged with three counts, including money laundering and conspiracy. Farah Isaac, owner of Isaac Jewelers, also in Scottsdale, faces the same charges. They were arrested Wednesday.
Attorneys for the three men did not return telephone messages on Friday. All three suspects have been released on their own recognizance pending future hearings after initial appearances this week in federal court in Phoenix.

Not exactly but "yes" as it is the closest one can be to a restaurant. EVOO offers unique recreational cooking and dining experiences from hands-on cooking classes to interactive demonstration dinner shows. At all experiences, guests are served a full meal.
Why must I pay in advance for reservations at EVOO?
Unlike a traditional restaurant, our ingredient purchases are precise for the number of guests and the menu we are making. And if we have a "no-shows " party, we do not have a convenient way to re-purpose the fresh ingredients our chef carefully purchased from our local farmers, fishers, and ranchers. For some dates we keep a wait list, but a no-show on the night of a reservation doesn't give us enough time to fill in with a wait-listed guest. We appreciate our guest's understanding that this is a necessary and reasonable practice given the circumstances of our events.
Is tip included?
Service tips are not included in our show pricing. That said, all of our associates are paid a living wage regardless of their position here. If so inclined your monetary recognition of their professional performance is always appreciated.
What is your cancellation policy?
If you have to cancel for any reason you may sell your tickets or give them away. We do not issue refunds for cancellations. We do understand that emergencies occur. If you cannot transfer ownership to someone else, please let us know and we will try to sell your tickets on your behalf. If we do, you may register your attendance on another date, depending upon there is availability, and such reservations cannot be extended a second time.
Can you recommend lodging?
We recommend you secure lodging before you buy your tickets to the show just in the rare circumstance you do not find lodging for the dates you desire. If you need help with lodging you may go to these websites: Cannon Beach Vacation Rentals for a Cannon Beach bungalow Chamber of Commerce website at www.cannonbeach.org
Guide to Cannon Beach at www.cannon-beach.net
May we bring our own wine to a dinner show?
Outside wines at any EVOO experience does not work for most of our shows, because at shows where the menu is paired to the wines, our pairings are a large part of the experience. We have many food friendly wines in our store that can be purchased for shows/experiences that do not include wines. Chef Bob always gives a recommendation for wines that match all of these menus. Beer is also available as are soft natural beverages. Beverages are priced at shelf prices, not wine-list prices.
Why am I asked to give you my food allergies and diet restrictions?
With advance notice, we can make substitutions and alternatives for most common food allergies (i.e. celiac, tree nuts, soy, etc.); as well as conscientious restrictions such as vegetarian, Pescatarian, no pork, etc. Creating these options becomes part of the learning process for everyone attending. In fact, many guests find it interesting how simply adjustments can be made when starting with whole foods and how very close to the original menu item we can make it. Because of the extra time it takes to accommodate these allergies and diet restrictions, we will not make substitutions for preferences or dislikes that are not related to health needs or lifestyle/religious needs. Generally, though, we are able to accommodate most diet requests if we have advance notice. All substitutions and alternatives are at the discretion of the chefs. In some instances, our chef will call you directly before agreeing to accommodate your allergies/restrictions.
What about seating? Should I come early for a good seat?
Coming 10 - 15 minutes early is recommended, but we create a seating chart based on the number and size of the parties that buy tickets for each event, so your seat is reserved. Since we have a small intimate space, we can only fit a certain number of people into each one of our experiences for best results. Therefore, we are unable to give preferential seating to any party or guest based on their preferences. If there is a special need such as wheel chair, hearing or sight impairment, we will make exceptions as best we can. We have many requests for bar seating as well as the high tables behind the bar. We believe all seats are good seats! NOTE: Parties greater than six often must be split up in deference to our other guests attending. We recommend parties greater than ten reserve the entire date for their private party. If this is not possible, we may need to limit the size of your group to ten or less and we will not seat such groups together to ensure our remaining guests feel equal at the event. We also appreciate when large groups reserve their private celebratory actions, such as gift giving and toasting, for after the show.
What about private events?
When groups want a private event, they are required to purchase a minimum of 18-22 seats, depending upon day of the week and time of year. Groups of over 10 must acquire the date of their choice as a private party in most cases. If their party is less than minimum, the cost to become private is still for the minimum number of guests. In addition, when the menu is customized and/or personalized, a service fee up to 20% is added. For business groups or corporate parties, please call our reservationist to make sure the date you want is available. Chef Bob will take it from there.
What other activities do you recommend in Cannon Beach?
Of course, shopping the many quaint shops lining the main street of town is always a favorite activity when in Cannon Beach. Also midtown supports more galleries and shops like Center Diamond. We also like the History Center, and the Friends of Haystack who support the city's Haystack Awareness program, so be sure to check them out. ` Here are a few of the many places we enjoy:
- CB Theatre Always a treat for a very reasonable price!
- Galleries of Primary Elements, Northwest By Northwest, Jeffrey Hull Gallery, Ice Fire Glassworks and many more are available almost every day, making our town one of the best art destinations in the US.
- NW Women's Surf Camps If you want to learn this invigorating sport, start here. Lexie brings such passion to the art of surfing that you leave with much more than a great day at the beach.
- For nostalgic history, follow the S-curves on Hemlock Street south to end of our little town, called Tolovana Park. Here you find "The Lost Art of Nursing Museum." Open Saturdays 1-4 pm, and by appointment; you are guided by Melodie, nurse, proprietor, and curator of this historic, fun and uplifting place.
``And of course if you go to our Chamber of Commerce website you will see lots more activities and things to do in the broader area. A complete guide to CB activities with great photos can be found at Cannon-Beach.net.

The Larimer County Building Department's 'Outstanding Professionalism Awards' program which honored contractors, architects and engineers for teamwork and customer-focused service and who provided a quality product to citizens in the unincorporated areas of Larimer County. The recipients demonstrated quality and professionalism by their knowledge of the Larimer County Building Code; clarity during the permit application process; consistent compliance with plan specifications; on-site work quality; and, timely inspection requests and corrections. Their contribution and achievements provide quality construction and safety to Larimer County citizens and property owners.
Larimer County did not use to have a contractor licensing program and the county building official knew citizens had concerns about contractors' track records. The County recognized construction professionals who were doing an outstanding job in an effort to provide more information to citizens. Now that the County adopted a contractor licensing program, as of October 2009, we no longer have the professionalism award program. Contractor License Search

The bookmarks are very simple. I just make them in Microsoft Publisher. I create several long, skinny strips on a page (I find three fit nicely on an 8-1/2 x 11-inch sheet of paper). I drop in a photo and then the appropriate text regarding that person. After printing three to four on card stock, I cut the bookmarks on a paper cutter.
This week I'm looking for a little reader participation. It's time to show off!
Have you created a family history project using your family photos? E-mail me a photo of it and I'll either feature it here, or if I receive enough submissions, I'll put together another slide show.
I was inspired by a woman in my town who creates photo quilts. They're so beautiful, you want to frame them rather than put them on your bed. Let's see how creative you are!
Many photographers dislike taking children. It is true, they are sometimes troublesome, and the result uncertain; but again, they are so often easy and graceful, and their pure complexions give such delicate half-tones, that some of the finest pictures are those of children, and no artist seeking after excellence would forego, even from choice, the oportunity they afford. For very young children, it is necessary to choose a fine day, and the best light, which is usually in the forenoon. Avoid giving or mentioning sweets to them. Do not play or fuss too much with them. Generally a child will sit best if left entirely to the operator.
Attached is a photo
of my husband's maternal grandmother, Leona Mary MARTIN (on left) and her twin,
Lee Joseph MARTIN, taken c. 1907 in Bonners Ferry, Idaho. If you look
closely at the left side of Leona's gown and the right side of Lee's gown,
you'll see evidence that someone (or a couple of someones) are sitting out of
sight, holding the children on the sofa. The twins would have been about
a year old (they were born 17 Dec. 1906). The back says "For Grandpa
and Grandma". Only their maternal grandparents, Isaac and Rebecca
(HEWITT) LUKE were still living by the time they were born. I imagine
this photo was a Christmas gift.
Donna Richmond sent this picture (below) titled "child of L.C. Hataway, Black Creek, La." At teh baby's waist, you can clearly see the hands of a woman hidden under the rug.
Here's one more picture from my collection of unidentified photos of hidden women. It dates from the late 1860s. Don't you just love the hands holding the baby's head still?Happy Mother's Day!

March 15, 2010 - Dr. Lockwood, President of Multnomah University frequently writes letters to alumni, donors and friends of the school. Here's his latest.
The "new year" is not simply upon us; it's in the middle of its third month! As we in Portland are grateful for a fairly mild winter, we at Multnomah are encouraged by the things God is doing during the first two and one-half months of our spring semester. Let me give a few updates.
Our total enrollment for the spring semester stood at 844 students (headcount) when registration was complete. We have 629 students in the college and 215 in the seminary, just two off from last spring. Our two Portland campus programs are about on pace from last spring, but our university master's programs show a significant increase (61). At our off-site locations, we have 17 collegians and five seminarians taking classes in Reno, and five seminarians registered in Anchorage. We praise the Lord for these students; Multnomah continues to impact students with God's Word. These numbers also represent a stability in tuition revenues—an encouraging sign in a continuing tight economy.
New Seminary Faculty
At the seminary, under Dr. Redman's leadership, we have developed a new paradigm to fill faculty vacancies. Three faculty members have been appointed as "regular part-time" faculty in pastoral ministry. This means they will continue to lead their local churches while teaching a half-time load at the seminary. What is unique is this: they will be active participants in faculty discussions with full "voice and vote." In this way, they will provide valuable expertise for fashioning a pastoral ministry curriculum for the next generation. Our regular full time faculty members can anticipate a multi-dimensional team of colleagues with a hearty esprit d'corps. Our three appointees for the next academic year are:
- Dr. Gene Curtis, D.Min, pastor of Meadow Springs Community Church, Multnomah Biblical Seminary graduate. He will teach homiletics.
- Dr. Rick McKinley, D.Min, founding pastor of Portland's Imago Dei, a Multnomah Bible College graduate. He will teach in the area of biblical leadership.
- Prof. Tom Schiave, D.Min (cand.), pastor of Gateway Baptist Church. He will teach in the areas of spiritual formation and communication.
Global Ministries Conference
Multnomah held its annual Global Ministries Conference the last week of this month. With its "Harvesting the Desert" theme, this year's emphasis was God's work in the Middle East. Twenty-five mission agencies and 68 missionaries were on Multnomah's campus. [Name Witheld], who works with Arab believers through [Ministry Organization Name Witheld], and Sarah Perlman, who works with Jews for Jesus, served as plenary speakers. They provided complementary—and controversial—perspectives on Middle Eastern ministry. Multnomah continues to send a significant number of students into global ministry opportunities each year, and this conference again was a catalyst for God's Spirit to nudge open hearts.
[Names witheld above for security reasons]
Regional accreditation (NWCCU)
Accreditation is always on our horizon, but now more than ever. Last summer, we were informed that NWCCU was revising its accrediting standards, and that Multnomah University would be up for a full self-study visit in April 2011. That's just a little over a year from now! Dr. Wayne Strickland, who will lead this effort, is already hard at work in responding to these new standards. We are being asked to evaluate our institution according to basic themes, such as knowing God's Word, thinking critically, growing in Christ-likeness, and engaging our culture. Please pray for us as we embark on this important self-assessment.
Online technology
Technology supports Multnomah's mission more than ever before, and we are grateful for our professional IT staff. Several new things are happening. First, our Promotions & Communications department is in the process of thoroughly redesigning our website. This is extremely important since more and more students learn about—and apply to—Multnomah through this online portal. In fact, January saw an unprecedented spike in online applications for this coming fall. Working for over a year, we anticipate the official launch this spring.
Second, our Career Development Department, which now serves the entire university under Jim Saemenes' direction, uses the Ministry Web Directory. This amazing tool connects students with ministries and marketplace opportunities. Already, prospective students are drawn to Multnomah because of such vocational opportunities when they graduate.
Financial support
The Lord has favored our advancement department, under Paul's Griffin's oversight, with wonderful success. Of course, the development staff has worked extremely hard during this economic recession, too. For example, the team is on track to hit its financial targets for the last eight months, largely, I believe, by cultivating personal relationships with people like you. They also did a terrific job in planning, organizing, and pulling off our largest Student Aid Banquet event on the Saturday of March 6th. Over 450 attended to hear wonderful testimonies from students and alumni of what God is doing in them because of Multnomah. Many, many people gave. They remembered what Jesus said, "I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings" (Luke 16:9).
Thank You
Thanks you so much for your faithful prayer support of Multnomah's vital ministry. I cannot tell you what this means to our faculty, staff, and students. Your prayers have a way of saying to faculty and staff, "You're not alone in this ministry. The Lord is confirming the work you do." Your support speaks clearly to students that the Lord will provide in many ways—including through gifts from supporters they may never meet. These serious-minded men and women are empowered to study deeply the Word of God at Multnomah and to pursue wholeheartedly their dreams of being equipped for the vocation God has chosen for them.
Longing for the eternal dwellings,
Daniel R. Lockwood

'Duck Dynasty' family sharing holiday memories
Your favorite stars of "Duck Dynasty" are sharing their favorite holiday memories!
Jase Robertson says it was at Christmas that he learned just how dedicated his father, Phil, was to duck hunting - which he says is one of his favorite holiday memories. He adds that the fire was already out - Phil just walked away from the clean up and repair work that needed to be done.
Miss Kay says her favorite Christmas memory dates back to her first celebration with Phil once they were back together after a separation. She admits Phil is "not a gift buyer," but he had a big box for her under the tree that year, which was full of pots and pans. Kay says it "was wonderful."
Willie and Korie's memories revolve around their children. Korie says she'll never forget taking part in a live nativity scene at the mall. She recalls that she played the part of Mary, and John Luke, who was just a baby at the time, had been picked to portray Jesus. She says he "did great" and was "so cute," adding that John Luke "was probably the only baby Jesus that was sucking a pacifier."
Willie says his son Will was born in December, right before Christmas, and that first celebration with their newborn child is his favorite holiday memory.

At the heart of the show, Jacobi is stellar as Claudius, who learns to play up his physical failings to mask his own intelligence.
In the same year, 1834, Jacobi invented an electric motor and Runge made the important discovery of carbolic acid.
India-rubber had been tried by Jacobi, the Russian electrician, as far back as 1811.
Graf Solms had such boxes made of tin with the name Jacobi inside.
Some of them had enunciated Bolshevist doctrines as wild as any of Flynn's or Jacobi's.
According to Jacobi's wish the marriage was to take place in the church, and after this they were all to dine en famille.
Flynn's jaw worked and his glance passed from Jacobi to Wells.
Jacobi said that the greater a man's ability to act for distant ends, the stronger his mind.
He voiced the opinion that either Flynn or Jacobi had brought in the liquor.
Jacobi, who appeared to be captivated by Sara's appearance, led her in the magic circle of the waltz.
Jacobi Ja·co·bi (jə-kō'bē), Abraham. 1830-1919.
German-born American physician who established a children's clinic in New York (1860) and is considered the founder of American pediatrics. His wife, Mary Corinna Putnam Jacobi (1842-1906), also a physician, helped expand opportunities for women in medical education.

transcript:
One of the most familiar images of Yosemite National Park… is Half Dome, the park’s tallest granite peak--- at nearly 5,000 feet.
It’s popular with hikers, and while it is a 10-hour trek, and not for the meek, a climb here requires no special expertise.
And while thousands may have made the trek with nothing but some sore leg muscles to show for it, clear warnings are posted that a climb here could be deadly, because Half Dome is a gigantic natural lightning rod.
On July 27th, 1985, five men set out to climb Half Dome.
Adrian Esteban was one of the hikers.
ADRIAN ESTABAN: “It was predominantly a blue sky with just one little cloud way off in the background. We’re hiking along and we get about to the half way point and we noticed the cloud was getting closer into the valley and now it’s getting darker and darker.”
But he says the excitement of the storm actually drove them to try to finish their goal.
A single thunderstorm can contain more energy than ten atomic bombs.
And lightning strikes, on average, killed more than 40 people each year in the United States between 2000 and 2009.
By 6pm, despite the storm, Adrian Esteban and his friends reach the summit.
Their showdown with Yosemite seems to have gone their way.
But the storm is just beginning to slam into Half Dome. Escape is impossible.
Desperate, they seek shelter in a rock enclosure, but it’s too late.
ADRIAN ESTABAN: “I felt my skin tingling. I felt like my hair was standing on end. And that’s when the lightning bolts hit.”
The summit took a direct hit.
Millions of volts of electricity arc over the wet stone surface—into the rock enclosure.
The lightning strike kills two of Adrian’s friends.
Two others suffer massive internal injuries along with third degree burns, and they take years to heal.
Adrian was in motion when the lightning struck. Because little of his body was in contact with the rock, he did not ground the lightning’s electrical charge, and he escaped with minor injuries.
ADRIAN ESTABAN: “And I just want to impress on people the dangers of nature, how strong, how unpredictable it can be.”
A hike on Half Dome can be an exhilarating experience for those who decide to make the trip.
But, it is important to respect nature, and like the caution signs warn: don’t climb this granite peak if a thunderstorm is anywhere in the horizon.
