The Level I and II Health Care Interpreter Training Courses, administered by School of Public Health, are part of a specialized educational program for individuals who are proficient in two or more languages; it is the first program in the US to be accredited by the International Medical Interpreter Association (IMIA).
Level I is an intensive sixty-hour IMIA accredited course offered on an annual basis at the UOM campus. Students spend sixty hours in the classroom learning the fundamentals of medical interpreting such as the roles and modes of medical interpreting, protocols of the session, cultural competence, medical terminology, basic Anatomy and Physiology, diseases, Code of Ethics, Standards of Practice and laws and legal standards and regulations relevant to healthcare interpreting, to cite a few. Oral message conversion exercises from source language to target language is an integral component of Level I. After having successfully completed the sixty-hour classroom learning experience and the minimum ten-hour Practicum requirements, the student receives a certificate/diploma issued by the UOM. Please click here to review the Level I Course Handbook.
The Level II course is a continuation of Level I. This advanced course is offered to students who successfully complete Level I, and covers topics including interpreting in the emergency department, ICU, oncology and palliative care, and additional anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology.
Both Level I and Level II are intensive courses, and a minimum of 10 students must enroll for the courses to be held as scheduled.
The curriculum and materials, developed by Kaiser Permanente in partnership with Hablamos Juntos, a nationally recognized project funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, are based on active and cooperative learning, and are designed to increase the number of and improve the knowledge and skills of medical interpreters nationwide. The courses are taught by Espi Ralston, MA, MAT, CMI-Spanish, CHI, who holds masters degrees in curriculum and instruction, romance languages, and modern philology, and has 30 years experience in teaching.

Man, what a long day.
I will have more to say tomorrow, after a lot of what transpired today sinks in – but, for now, despite the season coming to an end, I am left thinking about Shea Stadium, and the memories of the past – whether good or bad.
This is going to be a bizarre off-season, I feel. Frankly, as for this current team, I feel very jerked around, and I'm not sure what I think should be done to avoid having next year end in the same way that the last two have. But, we can get more in to that in the days and weeks and months ahead.
Tonight, all I want is a hot shower and a good night's sleep.

- What I Love About My Small Home:
- Although the apartment has collectable designer pieces, the apartment was furnished on a very low budget and we paid very little for our furniture. We have a personal connection to almost every piece, and with every piece there's very a personal story as to how it was acquired.
With the exception of a very few ikea pieces, everything in the apartment is either hand made or restored. The origami sculptures, bookshelf, coffee table, and dining table (made of church floorboards) were made from scratch. Old Eames shells and the DJ booth credenza were once in horrible condition.
The apartment is very modular. Doors on either end of the credenza open up to reflect sound from speakers hidden inside the credenza and diffuse sound. The coffee can lengthen or shorten. The living room can also be quickly converted into a photo studio by simply moving two pieces of furniture and setting up foldable backdrops and lighting equipment.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space:
- The space is very irregular. Making CAD models with different furniture configurations helped to optimize the layout. We prefer a lot of open space, but we also wanted a large bookshelf , a full dining table and a DJ booth. To minimize the furniture footprint, we chose pieces that do not extend far from the wall. The TV credenza, my desk, and DJ booth credenza are only 15" deep, and the bookshelf is 12" deep. Furthermore, most surfaces are less than 30" tall. My bed, the TV credenza, and coffee table are all around 15". By providing more space vertically, the apartment seemed larger. Storing our bikes was an issue as they're always visible. Thus, we chose minimal bikes, such that they simultaneously served as an unobtrusive decorative elements when stored in our rooms.
We have 20 chairs in our apartment and storage is an issue. However, we opted for stackable Eames chairs and Aalto stools that store easily in our coat closet. When we are not entertaining only 9 chairs are out.

Annual Meeting Coverage
The Future in Person: A Student Member's View of ASIS&T 2003
Caryn L. Anderson is a master's candidate in the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts. She is an associate with Lee Mizell Consulting, conducting research, analysis, evaluation and strategic planning for government and non-profit organizations. Additionally, she provides international accounting services to The Christian Science Publishing Society. She can best be reached via e-mail: email@example.com.
A student member's view of her first ASIS&T conference may not carry the weight of decades of experience, but there is still a place for the vision of those too new to the field to believe there are things that cannot be done.
This essay outlines a coordinated view of some of the technologies, theories and methods presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Society for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) in Long Beach, California, during the week of October 19-22, 2003. This view reflects perhaps 25% of the ideas presented. Such, alas, is the effect of concurrent sessions. My interest lies in assisting those who are facilitating complex processes ranging from city planning and industrial ecology to global conflict negotiation, public health and international development. I have included those ideas and sessions that seem to contribute to the dream of a system for integrating research from different fields a system that will effectively serve the multi-disciplinary information needs of these urgent and complex problems.
This review is not the first articulation of such a dream, nor is it the first discussion of the state of the library and information science field in relation to this vision. Federated research integration systems or portals already exist in developing forms ranging from programs like MetaLib, an integrated library metasearching system by Ex Libris and operating at Boston College as Metaquest (http://metaquest.bc.edu/V) to simple "my library" customization options. However, for those interested in improving cross-disciplinary communication and collaboration, there was much reason for cheer at ASIS&T 2003.
Though they may not have specifically discussed it when presenting their work, many of the researchers and practitioners were effectively building critical components of super-systems. The systems in sight would be networked and customized cross-disciplinary research services and resource/citation management programs that will enable researchers, practitioners and policy makers to monitor and access monographs, journals and data set repositories integrated within an active network of peers sharing theories, methods and/or content through a fully indexed, interactive and continuous peer review process for discovering and developing knowledge.
The following four sections outline how research presented at (or near) ASIS&T 2003 will contribute to the ongoing development of these systems in the months and years ahead.
NISO Metasearch Initiative. At its business meeting held at ASIS&T 2003, the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) reported on its recently established Metasearch Initiative to develop standards for single system searching across multiple databases and electronic resources. If the languages for inter-system communication can be agreed upon, then, theoretically, all catalogs can find and access all resources. The key issues of the Metasearch Initiative include
Developments in standards will be instrumental in facilitating growth in metasearching technologies.
Domain Analysis: In 1971, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) developed a model of scientific and technical communication called the UNISIST model. This model traces the flow of information from knowledge producer to user through the stages of publication, review, storage, indexing and retrieval. Trine Fjordback Søndergaard, Jack Andersen and Birger Hjørland of the Royal School of Library and Information Science in Copenhagen, Denmark, have updated this model to represent modern methods of electronic communication and to establish a framework for analyzing different domains.
The updated work draws on the well known characterization by psychologist Anthony Biglan in 1973 of the differences among academic areas and the way scholars interact, conduct knowledge development activities and share/publish their knowledge. Since then many studies indicate that disciplines communicate in different ways. Generalizations have been made about the social sciences, or "soft" (per Biglan) disciplines, that scholars in these fields communicate more through monographs than journals; rely more highly on the authority of older work in their field, and prefer to research via citation chaining. Conversely, scholars in the "hard" (per Biglan), or exact sciences, appear to communicate more through periodical publications; prefer the latest research and search for it directly in indexing databases.
The updated UNISIST model addresses these three communication variables and provides a means by which to incorporate what Hjørland (see related article in this issue of the Bulletin) recognizes as key epistemological differences between and within disciplines that affect how scholars communicate. Differences in philosophical approaches to knowledge development affect the structure of papers and the elements that constitute effective argument, valid research or even the definition of the problem being investigated. These distinctions in turn affect the way access points to those documents are established. A more thorough understanding of them is being developed through Hjørland's 11 approaches to domain analysis and the updated UNISIST model of Fjordback Søndergaard, et al (both published separately in the Journal of Documentation). As domain analysis develops, epistemological and communication preferences can be used as tools for addressing the NISO key metasearching issue "resource description" to assist users in selecting the appropriate resources for their search.
Thesaurus Development. The October/November 2003 ASIS&T Bulletin included an article on the new Biocomplexity Thesaurus launched by the National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII) and CSA (Cambridge Scientific Abstracts). The new thesaurus merges six different thesauri ranging in special subjects from pollution to sociology. While this project was not presented at ASIS&T 2003, it illustrates the growth of structures available to support cross-disciplinary searching.
International Interoperability. Gregory Shreve at Kent State University's Institute for Applied Linguistics discussed the ability of existing standards to accommodate the needs of multilingual searching. While much of his work focuses on different words with the same meanings, he is equally concerned with localization and style issues. It is not just that different languages use different words but that speakers also have different writing styles and respond differently to icons. Shreve recommends developing a referential, concept-based, multilingual glossary rather than attempting to include dictionary-based "equivalents" in cataloguing records. He maintains that although many systems are not designed for internationalization, existing standards like ISO 12620 can provide a framework for crafting such systems without reinventing the wheel. His work focuses primarily on internationalization, but the theoretical implications are also encouraging for translating between domains and for developing multi-disciplinary thesauri.
Knowledge Discovery Through Methods and Findings. "The goal of information retrieval systems is to identify the most precise or relevant subset of documents by matching concepts (typically keywords) in documents with concepts in the query statement. But biomedical researchers increasingly are seeking systems that actually extract desired facts and answer questions, not just systems that retrieve whole documents that must be read through to find the (potentially) desired information. They need a system that allows them to quickly review retrieved results for research methods and findings " (Revere, Proceedings, p. 52) This information is often easy to find in the figures and tables of research papers, but keyword queries do not search the captions or legends from these critical information diagrams. The folks developing the Telemakus System, however, are working to change that. Crudely speaking, their technology extracts terms from the X and Y axes of charts, and from the captions and legends, and indexes both the terms and the relationships between them (e.g., effect of caloric restriction on cancer). They then report search results according to a schema whereby surrogates are organized by research methods and findings for easy evaluation and selection. The third component of the Telemakus System is a Visual Exploration Interface that displays a map of findings (looking like a web showing links/relationships among various elements and variables studied within a particular field). This map reveals not only what is known in an area (like neoplasm research), but also "through gaps in the map, what is yet to be discovered." As other domains/disciplines are analyzed and understood, similar schema and mapping systems can be developed. Once such systems are developed, it is possible that parallel research methodology could be identified across disciplines that could generate new means of knowledge discovery and development.
Research by Attraction Rather than "Searching." Gregory Leazer of UCLA presented a model for measuring the relationship between films as a sort of inverse of the Kevin Bacon factor. Rather than measuring the distance between two actors based on what other actors they have worked with, Leazer, along with Jonathan Furner and Rachel Napper, measured the distance between films based on the combinations of actors, directors and producers involved in each film. While it may sound like statistical horseplay at first, Leazer was actually able to develop algorithms used to design a film recommendation system that appears to be more effective than those currently offered by consumer services like Netflix. Tell the system which films you like, and, by comparing the cast and production staff of all other films, the system will produce a list of recommendations for you.
Imagine this methodology applied to research papers and other scholarly material indexed via the conceptual relationship mapping technology being developed by Telemakus. Imagine incorporating a multi-disciplinary thesaurus and comprehensive domain analysis of scholarly communication and epistemological frameworks. Imagine a "research recommendation system" where relevant research (based on findings and/or methodology) could be pro-actively and automatically identified based on your profile of selected research and resources. As you add new research to your resource list, the system would continually and dynamically adjust its algorithms based on the conceptual relationships within the papers in your profile so that newly relevant research could regularly be identified and recommended for you. Your imagining may be reality before long.
Resource Management
Personal Digital Libraries/Portals. Dongming Zhang of Johns Hopkins University presented his studies of usage data from the Welch Medical Library "My Welch" online personal library system. The system allows users to access a variety of personally selected resources (journals, databases, e-books, etc.), receive alerts about new resources, link to personally selected websites, search PubMed, review the latest health news, keep personal notes, review tables of contents of popular journals and ask a librarian for help all from a single, easy to use Web page. This existing system presents a useful interface for managing resources and facilitating metasearching and collaboration. Imagine a combination of "My Welch" and Boston College's "Metaquest" with the features of a "research recommendation system" as outlined above. (Explore "My Welch" at https://mywelch.welch.jhmi.edu/login/index.cfm.)
Documentation of Knowledge. The updated UNISIST model of scholarly communication presented by Fjordback Søndergaard, Andersen and Hjørland identifies a whole branch of unpublished information flow which includes pre-print databases of theses and research reports and data set repositories housed and mediated usually by scientific and research organization servers. Melissa H. Cragin at the University of Illinois is specifically studying how researchers document their experiments whose data ends up in a shared database or repository. She is interested in both the standardized metadata that accompanies the data and the narrative material that is added. The question guiding this work is "How do interdisciplinary scientists in the fields of biodiversity and neuroscience find and use information?" Cragin and colleagues Carole Palmer and Timothy Hogan presented a poster at ASIS&T 2003 entitled "Information and Discovery in Neuroscience." In addition, her article "Toward Integrative Science: Organizing Biodiversity and Neuroscience Data" in the October/November 2003 ASIS&T Bulletin is an outstanding introduction to the challenges of integrating data sets (often documented according to different standards) in order to facilitate knowledge discovery in interdisciplinary fields like biodiversity where, for example, "data collected for very different purposes, like rainfall data, will need to be included in retrieval systems for analysis along with species data." Don't let the title scare you. The article is very accessible and useful in outlining information challenges to be addressed in all disciplines.
Other Resources for Integration. While no ASIS&T Annual Meeting presentation directly addressed the inclusion of case databases, legal instruments and grant/funding opportunities with traditional information retrieval and resource management activities, it is expected that integration of these critical components will become a part of any optimal metasearch system.
Dynamic Peer Review
Dynamic Peer Review (NeoRef). Bradley Hemminger of the University of North Carolina spoke specifically about the NeoRef Open Archive System and the potential for transforming the scholarly communication process from a limited, one-shot deal into a continuum of interactive review, criticism and response. Hemminger outlined the cycle of a work in eight stages: 1) idea; 2) present to colleagues; 3) present at conference; 4) submit to journal; 5) referees demand revision for journal; 6) journal publication of final version; 7) revision to update analysis; and 8) revision with new information. Now, we only get #6, the formal journal publication. The goal of open archive systems like NeoRef is to encourage scholarly communication as a continuous process throughout each of these stages. By posting work to an archive and designing structures for peer review, criticism and response, the timeframe between ideas and developments can be greatly reduced, while useful feedback is increased. Hemminger discussed the challenges of cataloguing such voluminous communication, but it is not beyond the imagination to conceive of systems of self-indexing of responses and reviews.
Open Archives Initiative (OAI). The OAI did not present at ASIS&T 2003, but remained just under the surface of many sessions. In working to develop and promote interoperability standards, this group is focused on enabling freer and more efficient scholarly communication. This effort is partly a response to the increasingly prohibitive costs of print and subscription e-journals from private publishers. Mentioned by many presenters, OAI developments will be making large contributions in the months and years ahead.
Public Library of Science. Perhaps it is not a coincidence that the first free, online, peer-reviewed scholarly journal, Biology, debuted at the Public Library of Science (PLoS) in the same month as the ASIS&T 2003 conference. The PLoS appears to be the beginning of the future of scholarly communication or at least a truly earnest alternative to the domination of private publishers. As PLoS works out its kinks, it is likely that lessons learned here (technologically, politically and functionally) will serve to educate the rest of the field.
Online Collaboration
Portals as Collaborative Workspaces. Brian Detlor of the business school at McMaster University suggested in his plenary address that libraries take a page from the enterprise world's book of knowledge portals to design systems that are more robust for users. He discusses the value of offering more than just content (or access) and actually providing places to work actively with others online (within the environment of information access). Business models of knowledge management portals abound and frequently include "expert systems" in addition to "workspaces" so that employees can quickly locate fellow employees who are experts in particular areas. By developing these types of systems, libraries will not only encourage knowledge discovery and development, but also support a community environment. (See Detlor's "Fostering Robust Library Portals" under "Working Papers" at www.business.mcmaster.ca/msis/profs/detlorb/publications.htm.)
Jane Starnes, senior information specialist at the Intel Corporation Library, did not present at ASIS&T 2003, but has written an excellent and accessible article based on her presentation at the 2003 ASIS&T IA Summit about the development of Intel's knowledge portal (called Knowledge Compass) for the August/September 2003 ASIS&T Bulletin. She describes how the system works, how they developed it, what the challenges were and the insights gained from the experience.
Examples from Industry: Knowledge Portal Software. Detlor mentions a number of software companies developing these kinds of systems for enterprise (business): Verity, PeopleSoft and Plumtree. Intel runs their Knowledge Compass system on a product from AskMe, Inc.
All of this research and innovation in such a short period has combined for me, generating eager anticipation about the future and an agonizing debate about which avenue to investigate first. It is an exciting time to be a library and information science student, and I am profoundly grateful that I had the opportunity to attend ASIS&T 2003 and return to share my experience of it with my fellow students. It once seemed like an impossible dream that scholars, practitioners and policy makers could search across platforms and resources to discover relevant knowledge and develop new working relationships regardless of disciplinary, geographic or epistemological boundaries. Most certainly this utopia of scholarship remains a dream. Nevertheless, I am emboldened by the spirit of Ford Prefect to add a single word to my description of it. After my experiences at ASIS&T 2003, I can say with confidence that the dream is now only "mostly" impossible a very big step forward!

(Medical Xpress)—Researchers from Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI) have published findings from a preclinical study assessing the effectiveness of a small-molecule inhibitor, CFAK-Y15, in treating some brain cancers. The paper, published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, demonstrates for the first time that inhibiting the protein focal adhesion kinase (FAK) with CFAK-Y15 is an effective approach to controlling growth of glioblastoma tumors, especially in combination with the standard chemotherapy agent temozolomide (Temodar).
FAK is overexpressed, or produced in excessive amounts, in tumor cells, and has been shown to play a key role in survival of cancer cells. In this study, a team led by Vita M. Golubovskaya, PhD, an Associate Professor of Oncology in the Department of Surgical Oncology, found that animal models treated with CFAK-Y15 demonstrated significantly prolonged survival compared to the control group. CFAK-Y15 provides FAK kinase-specific inhibition by upstream targeting of autophosphorylation sites on the FAK protein. It belongs to a class of 'two for one' compounds that also inhibit the oncoprotein Src by inhibiting its autophosphorylation.
"We found that CFAK-Y15 significantly decreased the viability of the glioblastoma cells, and in many cases appeared to cause tumor shrinkage—especially when CFAK-Y15 was given in combination with temozolomide," noted Dr. Golubovskaya, the paper's first author. "These compounds target FAK signaling, which is critical for cancer cell and cancer stem cell survival, especially in invasive and metastatic cancers."
"We're eager to see this research move to the clinical phase because of the great need for more effective treatments for glioblastoma," noted senior author William G. Cance, MD, FACS, Surgeon-in-Chief and Chair of the Department of Surgical Oncology. "The potential impact is great because glioblastomas are such an aggressive tumor, and because we know they produce FAK in especially high quantities."
The authors also included researchers from the University of California at San Diego and faculty from the Department of Pathology at RPCI. CFAK-Y15 is being developed by CureFAKtor Pharmaceuticals LLC (www.curefaktor.com). Drs. Cance and Golubovskaya, both of whom also serve on the management team of CureFAKtor, were part of the team that first identified CFAK-Y15, in research published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry in 2008.
The new abstract and paper, "Pharmacological blockade of FAK autophosphorylation decreases human glioblastoma tumor growth and synergizes with temozolomide," can be accessed online at mct.aacrjournals.org/content/e … 535-7163.MCT-12-0701

Shirtless Justin Bieber Shows Off Beach Bod
Justin Bieber shared a shirtless photo of himself via his Instagram account and he is taut, toned and in shape. Is this our little teen sensation The Biebs? Why yes, it is!
The Biebs is certainly hitting the gym on his days off, that's for sure. You don't get those rock hard, washboard abs without breaking a sweat and engaging in some serious exercise. No pain, no gain, right?
In the shot, The Biebs is standing in front of a body of water, with his side-swooped bangs and an innocent smile. He's also all bathed and awash in natural sunlight, with the calm, blue water as his backdrop. No wonder all hormonal, pre-teen and teen girls love him so unconditionally. He's cute, has a great body and sings so sweetly. He's a bring-him-home-to-mom type of boy.
Oh, and speaking of moms, they can relax. There is absolutely nothing inappropriate about this photo. It's not lewd or crude. It's just a shirtless teen boy on a beach, looking fine.
The Biebs is on the cusp of manhood — with his 18th birthday approaching (March 1) — and this beachy photo is proof of this undeniable fact.

Niche Auction - Holds Event to Auction Leading Beer Can and Breweriana Collection
BRIMFIELD, Mass., Feb. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Morean Auctions announces its inaugural event, the Keith Belcher Beer Can and Brewery Advertising Collection to be held February 18, 2017 at the Hilton Dulles, 13869 Park Center Rd, Herndon, VA.
And so it begins, auction number 1!
Dan Morean has bought and sold the most spectacular collections of beer cans and brewery advertising via Breweriana.com since 1997.
He has had record-breaking sales with a beer can selling for $37,500 and an additional beer can selling for $37,501 to break the previous record.
When asked, why start an auction company, Morean said, "There are many reputable auction firms doing an overall excellent job but there are none we have seen dedicating all their resources and expertise to brewery and other advertising. In the area of brewery advertising, we've seen descriptions that could be more accurate and comprehensive and prices realized we believe could be better. We see a need in this niche to better inform collector-bidders and to better serve sellers. For 20 years we've offered a very successful retail option for brewery advertising collectors and our panel of highly specialized experts is excited to lend their expertise to collectors in this highly focused auction."
The Belcher Collection is up for auction now at MoreanAuctions.com and hits the live-bidding auction floor on Feb 18 in the Potomac Ballroom of the Hilton Dulles. This collection is loaded with Holy Grail examples of advertising lithographs, art deco back bar lamps, beer serving and tip trays, cone top and flat top beer cans, Leyse signs, reverse on glass signs and more. The elusive and graphic Travis cone top beer can from Sabinas Brewing out of San Antonio, Texas is expected to fetch $20-30,000. Another stand-out piece is the A-B-C reverse painted glass sign from American Brewing out of St. Louis, Missouri which dates to about 1900 and is in outstanding, all original condition.
Other breweries, beer brands and advertising manufacturers represented in this collection include: Narragansett, James, Dixie, Pabst, Park, Wehr-Hobelmann Gottlieb, Globe, Gunther, National, Schlitz, Prima, Westminster, Peter Fox, Schoenhofen-Edelweiss, Monarch, Bullfrog, Mayflower, Miller, Enterprise, La Fayette, Storz, Willow Springs, Rainier, Wieland, Acme, Buckeye, Grace Bros, Hull, Simonds, Scheidt, Ortlieb, Esslinger, Senate, Christian Heurich, Lebanon Valley, Cape Girardeau, Ruppert, Yankee, Lion, Liebmann, Diogenes, Doelger, Ebling, Eichler, Frankenmuth, Columbia, Largay Red Fox, Kuebler, Van Nostrand Bunker Hill Breweries, Haffenreffer Pickwick, King's Tavern, Goebel, Pfeiffer, Centennial, Ste.

You've probably heard the terms cemetery sexton and sexton's records. But just what is a sexton? And what kind of records would he or she keep?
A sexton is actually the caretaker of a cemetery. The person who is in charge of making sure that all of the upkeep and maintenance gets done on a regular basis, along with maintaining the safety, security, and appearance of the cemetery. And that includes overseeing all of the work that goes into preparing a grave for a burial, maintaining equipment, and preserving headstones, memorials, and mausoleums. Quite a job! And even more so, when it involves the upkeep of a large cemetery or a combination of several cemeteries.
Sexton's records refer to the cemetery deeds and plat books that the sexton or caretaker maintains. These books offer the genealogist information about who purchased the plot, who owned the deed, along with any sales, transfers or inheritances involving a plot. The Sexton is also in charge of the burial register that contains general information about the deceased including age, address, date of death, date of burial, plot number and section. The Sexton can answer the 5 W's for you, just like a reporter. Who is buried here, when were they buried, where is the grave located, why is it located where it is and what were the burial details?
But there is more to being a cemetery sexton than just recording names and date, or overseeing maintenance and upkeep. There is an understanding and appreciation for the job and the realization of how it will affect people for generations to come.
|Vincennes (Knox County) Indiana
I spoke with Dan Wilson, the superintendent, or Sexton, of the oldest public cemeteries in Indiana. Composed of Green Lawn Cemetery started in the 1780's, Fairview Cemetery, which began in 1899 and Memorial Park Cemetery started in 1930 – all are a part of the Vincennes City Cemeteries located in Vincennes, Indiana. Dan has been superintendent here for over ten years, but he's been involved with cemeteries for almost 30 years.
While Dan can inform you about the general who-what-when-where and why of these cemeteries, he has taken his job one step further. He makes it a point to know something about those interred here. He loves the histories, the stories, not just of the cemeteries, but also of those under his care.
[ Transcript of Interview with Dan Wilson]
Dan Wilson:
I started collecting information about the families and the people who are buried there. A lot about how they died and how they lived, so it's kind of fascinating. Not only do we have burial information on thousand of people, we have what they did for a living, their relatives, we have all kinds of information, cool stories. That's the history part of the stuff I like.
I love information and I hate to see information die with the people. So when someone comes out here and visits a grave, I can say, you know, 50 years after someone's passed away, it's kind of cool to be able to tell them a story about the person, some little something they did not know.
The funeral home is real nice. They give me these books to go through all their records and I pull information out about the people who are buried here. And about their relatives…nothing like the kind of casket or vault or how much money they made, that's not my interest. My interest is, like even their street addresses, relatives, jobs, veteran's status. Something that a family is just going to love to know.
You do this kind of record keeping and the numbers and the statistics and where it happened, that always sticks in your mind. Numbers tell stories.
Joy Neighbors:
You are the people putting this information together….
Dan Wilson:
Joy Neighbors:
And all because you really have an interest in history?
Dan Wilson:
In history. And also, my guys who take care of the cemetery. We only have two full time guys, and part time, but the full time guys love it because there's not……….they go over a grave, they know something about the person. You know, it's like that guy owned that, or he did this. And I'll give you an example, there's a lady buried down there by Raben Tires, interesting I think, a part of history. She was a stripper. And she was a stripper at Jack Ruby's club in New Orleans. And she was found dead in New Orleans like in 1968. And, I won't go into who she was, but to me that's interesting. That's cool history. I mean, you know, you actually have someone here who was involved with Jack Ruby, the guy that shot Oswald. To me, that's fascinating.
I'll tell you another one that I like. There was a husband and wife, and the lady died in, like, Oklahoma. And the guy bought her a coffin with a glass lid and he put her in the back of a pick up truck and was taking her around to different areas and was showing her for, like a nickel a peek, back in the twenties, right? Well, Gardner Mausoleum has like three mausoleum crypts in the basement that you can slide a casket in, you can seal the door. And the guy went to Gardner and wanted to know if he could see that this was a good Christian woman and that she deserved better? The guy was out of money. He said 'Can you keep her here a little bit until I come back?' I'll get the money and I'll bury her. Well the Gardners' are nice people and they said sure. Well she stayed up in the mausoleum for like, ten years. They tried to research the guy and finally found him. He was in a prison for the criminally insane in Washington D.C. And when I was going through the records from Gardner's, there's a letter that was there from J. Edgar Hoover saying that's where this guy was. So Gardners tracked him down and he wrote them a letter back saying she was a wonderful woman. She deserved a lot. Please give her a nice Christian burial. So they buried her out here.
It's fascinating to me, the people who get killed on the railroad tracks. Not crossings, but fall asleep on the railroad tracks. It's like, that had to be uncomfortable. Why would you ever think of falling asleep on those rocks?
Joy Neighbors:
Who do we have buried here that's semi-famous to famous?
Dan Wilson:
Red Skelton's father, buried right over here, which is an interesting story. They never met. I think Red's mother was pregnant with him, but he died before he was born. And see, he never knew him. His name was actually…It's not Skelton. His tombstone will say Skelton, but that's not what it is. It's Joseph Ehart.
Joy Neighbors:
What are some of the superstitions connected…?
Dan Wilson:
Superstitions? Are we talking ghosts and stuff?
Joy Neighbors:
Any realm of it.
Dan Wilson:
|Green Lawn Cemetery
Whenever I started here, we were over in the Green Lawn Cemetery, which was the old part.
And I would go over with a recorder, like that one, just like that one and I would record what I would see on stones. And I would sit and write this information down so I'd physically have something to bring back and put in the computer. Not just scraps of paper but notes cause I'm not very smart, I gotta have notes. And there were times I was in the cemetery and I would hear a voice say my name in my ear and it would happen so fast you would think did you really hear it?
The other day one of the superintendents' grandsons came here, and this superintendent just passed on last year, named Jack Anderson. It was really weird; the grandson sat there and said that his grandpa used to have the same thing happen to him. He would be over there and he would have people whisper in his ear just the same. And that just gave me goose bumps because the same thing I've experienced another superintendent before me, twenty years before, had experienced the same thing.
In the thirty years I've been doing this work, the cool things are the relatives who get visited in hospitals by dead relatives right before they die. All the time. I mean, all the time. And you can contribute that to drugs or an altered state of mind, or what ever you want. But when you hear the same stories over and over, that's a little too coincidental.
I honestly think death is just as natural as the geese, when they used to fly south, or the birds. It's just…it's scary to us because we don't know.
I'll tell you something that fascinates me, the unknown people. The people that no one knew who they were. There's like 40 or 50 people here who are unknown. And you just wonder who they were. There's like seven or eight of them that we got stone for and most them are children, so we got stones for these kids. One stone I think is cool, it says 'unknown stranger" and has a big question mark.
But we're proud of our records. I've been working on them straight, almost every day, here and at home. I just like to keep the stories, any thing people know about their relatives. And every day, when someone dies now, we enter them in every time, like the obituary in the paper, it's in there every time. The whole obit. Believe it or not, that's one of the reasons I do what I do. I think we owe those people their history.
If you are trying to locate records for a cemetery that does not have a sexton, start by contacting the office of Country or Town Clerk. Also check with local funeral homes. They know where many small cemeteries are.
Next Tuesday, we'll explore death and mortality records. Enjoy your weekend!

Pope Benedict XVI has announced that he is going to resign on February 28, 2013 due to deteriorating physical strength. Needless to say it is very uncommon for a Pope to resign.

The real tragedy here, next to that of all those young kids whose innocence was ruined by those self-involved priests, is that, because the hierarchy of the church can't face what they've done, when the reckoning DOES come, it will be all that much more tumultuous and ruinous for the church.
They're sowing the wind. The whirlwind is waiting Stage Right, and I don't think it'll wait very long.
According to a 12th century (1139) prophecy by St. Malachy, an Irish archbishop, there were only supposed to be 112 more popes before judgment day. Canonized in 1190 he claimed the prophecy was the result of a vision he received from god while in Rome reporting to Pope Innocent II. Ratzinger is supposed to be number 111. That, of course, means doomsday is supposed to occur during the reign of Ratzinger's successor. Let's hope his successor doesn't reign long so we will soon have a lot to poke fun at when the prophecy embarrassingly falls on its face. One of the things I thoroughly enjoy is rubbing it in when theists predict a doomsday that doesn't occur.
I'm with you. Rubbing it in is so fun.
Especially after the whole debacle with Harold Camping! Now just watch the buzz on St. Malachy go ballistic in the next few days!
[sigh] You'd think these idiots would LEARN...
John, I personally hope the prophecy is correct. OK - prophecies are complete, total, and absolute bullshit. I thoroughly realize that. However, think about it. If #112 of the Mr. Infallibles is the last, that means the Catholic Church is about to collapse under it's own degenerate, twisted, and disgusting weight. What a "blessing" for humanity!!!
Ooh, I like that interpretation.
Looks like we are in a win - win situation!
That was my first thought, too. The end of Roman Catholicism doesn't mean the end of the world. It could mean a new beginning.

Assault on Precinct 13 (US - BD RA)
Gabe revisits Rio Bravo à la John Carpenter on Blu-ray collector's edition...
Isolated and cut off from the city inside a soon-to-be-closed L.A. police station, a group of police officers and convicts must join forces to defend themselves against the gang called Street Thunder, who have taken a blood oath to kill someone trapped inside of the precinct. (From Shout Factory's official synopsis)
Assault on Precinct 13 wasn't John Carpenter's first feature film – that would be Dark Star (1974) – which was also an extension of a USC college film Carpenter made with future Alien screenwriter/ Return of the Living Dead director Dan O'Bannon. It's a charming, often hilarious little experiment that bears more of O'Bannon's future signatures than Carpenter's (note that I do not mean this as a slight on the film's quality). It established one very important thing, however – that Carpenter could do amazing things on a nothing budget. This brought him to the attention of B-Hollywood, who came calling and led him to make a rough and tumble siege movie called Assault on Precinct 13. So, if Dark Star is the first movie John Carpenter made, Assault on Precinct 13 is the first John Carpenter movie.
Though he is usually considered one of the 'Masters of Horror,' a group of young filmmakers that redefined low-budget American horror in the late '60s/'70s (including George Romero, Wes Craven, Tobe Hooper, among others), but he has always had issues with the distinction, because Carpenter didn't want to be the next Alfred Hitchcock or James Whale as much as he wanted to be the next Howard Hawks. Hawks' films are unified by two things – their high quality and their diversity. Hawks had power over multiple genres, including gangster movies ( Scarface), film noir ( The Big Sleep), westerns ( Red River), sci-fi/horror ( The Thing From Another World), and screwball comedies ( His Girl Friday). For his part, Carpenter has also dabbled in non-horror films, including a bio-pic ( Elvis), a romantic, sci-fi adventure ( Starman), and a fantasy kung-fu flick ( Big Trouble in Little China). It's certainly eclectic for a guy mostly known for making scary movies. Carpenter made his most direct homage to Hawks when he remade The Thing From Another World (1951) as The Thing (1982), but his first shot at the title was Assault on Precinct 13, which was a thematic remake of Hawks' Rio Bravo (1959).
Rio Bravo, a movie made partially in response to Fred Zinnemann's High Noon (pro-Blacklister John Wayne found it un-American in its anti-Blacklist sentiment), is, alongside Kurosawa's Seven Samurai (1954), the quintessential 'siege' film. Elements of these two films have found their way into everything from Hitchcock's The Birds, to George Romero's Night of the Living Dead and Cy Endfield's Zulu. Hawks himself was fond enough of his creation to effectively recreate it two more times – first as El Dorado (1966), then as Rio Lobo (1970), his final feature. The siege concept lends itself to massive scale warfare, like Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, but also lends itself to lower budget interpretations, making it popular fodder for action/adventure television as well (the Firefly episode Heart of Gold springs to mind). Assault on Precinct 13 began its life as more direct homage to Rio Bravo, but budgetary constraints made it difficult to shoot a western in 1976, so Carpenter relocated the story from the Wild West to South Central Los Angeles.
Assault on Precinct 13 doesn't improve on Rio Bravo in too many ways, but Carpenter knew his limitations would become an asset if he cut all the fat from Hawks' overstuffed template. Rio Bravo ends with iconic footage of the heroes defending the Presidio County jail house from bandits, but it takes almost two hours to set up the besetment. Carpenter streamlines the 141-minute runtime, whittling it down to an expeditious 91 minutes without losing any of its essential ingredients. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find a similar movie from the '70s with more efficient editing than Assault on Precinct 13. In the process of consolidating the plot, Carpenter dehumanizes most of the villains. The gangs become mostly emotionless hordes, similar to Romero's flesh eaters (like zombies, they barely even react when shot) and Hitchcock's birds. Carpenter hadn't quite mastered the art of slick, widescreen filmmaking by this time, but he was still able to get a whole lot of production value out of a paltry $150,000. The film carries all the visual hallmarks of a typical '70s crime/action feature ten times its budget. Another thing that Carpenter gets right is the film's sincere tone. He avoids what must've been a strong impulse to treat the material with the flippant sense of humour that it deserves. A less ambitious filmmaker would've recognized that there was little room for real drama in this tight exploitation riff and filled the space with ironic jokes and camp value. On the other hand, though more serious, a Hollywood production wouldn't have had the balls to murder a child in slow motion before the close of its first act.
Carpenter's patented tough-guy dialogue is entirely in line with a Hawks or Ford western and is rarely improved upon. Kurt Russell gets the best one-liners in Escape From New York and Big Trouble in Little China, but only The Thing beats Assault on Precinct 13 in sheer quantity of badass one-liners. Austin Stoker and Darwin Johnson, as stand-ins for the traditional sheriff and bandit characters, have the best exchanges, but everyone is let in on the action – even Laurie Zimmer, who may be the toughest chick in any of the director's films. It's probably important to note that Carpenter, a practically encyclopedic fan of Ford and Sergio Leone (he shows up on a lot of documentaries about other directors), never did manage to make a straight western. He did, however, find ways to blend genre tropes and imagery into the likes of Escape From New York, They Live, Vampires, and Ghosts of Mars (another version of Rio Bravo).
Like Halloween II, Shout Factory's Assault on Precinct 13 disc has the rare distinction of already being released on Blu-ray in North America. Based on shared extras between the two versions and Shout's tendency to reuse other company's remastered transfers, I'm going to guess that the previous Blu-ray, from Image Entertainment was the source for this 1080p, 2.35:1 release. I don't own a copy of that disc, so I'm not able to verify this with screencaps, but the possibility seems likely. The image has certainly been re-mastered since earlier DVD releases, including sharper foreground/close-up textures, better-defined background details, more dynamic contrast levels, and an overall cleanliness. The print has been scrubbed of most of the obvious print damage (there are fluttering artefacts peppered throughout), but not of natural grain. Aside from the occasional distortion created by the anamorphic lenses, edges are hard without shimmering effects or notable haloes. Without any DNR smudging or over-sharpening issues to complain about, the one thing that catches my eye is that the colour timing might be a bit off. The daylight sequences seem a bit too warm and yellow, while the teals/light blues of the nighttime sequences appear oversaturated. Generally speaking, browns, flesh tones, and red highlights look natural and are tightly separated. The darker shots are slightly muddy and cinematographer Douglas Knapp's use of diffused light is a smidge fuzzy, I suppose, but there are only a couple of shots (during the scene where Laurie Zimmer frees the prisoners from their cells, specifically) where the grain turns particularly noisy and the blacks appear weak or grey.
This 5.1 remix of Assault on Precinct 13's original mono soundtrack was first heard on Image's restored DVD release, then appeared again on their aforementioned Blu-ray. Like most 5.1 remixes of mono soundtracks, it is unnecessary, but it's still here and in DTS-HD Master Audio, so I'm gonna review it. Fortunately, this isn't a particularly aggressive remix. The majority of the non-musical sound is still centered and the added directional value is relatively natural. In fact, aside from the gun bursts (the unsilenced shots are a little over-bassy and the silenced shots are a little over-modulated/digital sounding) and one big explosion, I believe the remix utilizes mostly original effects – there's no Halloween re-release canned thunder here. The movement between stereo and surround channels is limited to cars moving through shot or off-screen gunshots and it works pretty well without overwhelming the intent of the original sound design. I will also admit that Carpenter's vastly underrated electronic score (this and Escape From New York are my two favourites of his themes) sounds incredible on the 5.1 track. The stereo spread is nice and deep and the LFE enhancement is very effective. The element that puts Shout's disc over the Image disc (besides the new extras I'm going to get to in a moment) is that the original mono track is also included in lossless DTS-HD MA, though it is significantly quieter than its 5.1 counterpart. The disc also includes a Dolby Digital 2.0 isolated score track.
The extras begin with two audio commentaries. The first features Carpenter solo and has been heard on several previous DVD and Blu-ray releases. Carpenter is his usual informative self. He's characteristically honest and occasionally a bit self-deprecating while he runs through just about every piece of behind-the-scenes information he can remember. His comments remain mostly scene-specific, which can be a little awkward when he runs out of stuff to say about a certain sequence, but helps him flow between the silent bits (of which there are plenty). The only real issue is that this track is missing some of the personality of some of Carpenter's shared commentaries. The second commentary is a brand new one with art director and sound effects editor Tommy Lee Wallace, moderated by Red Shirt Picture's Michael Felsher. Flesher interviews with rather broad, but vital questions to keep the discussion going and, for his part, the soft-spoken Wallace is full of anecdotes and technical tidbits. Subject matter includes Wallace's history with Carpenter, which began at USC with Dan O'Bannon, along with the difficulty of crafting such a good-looking film on a nothing budget. There's not a whole lot of overlap with the first track, but Wallace does repeat himself every once in a while.
The special features also include:
- Bishop Under Siege (7:50, HD) – The first of two new interviews featuring actor Austin Stoker discussing his early theater work, his work on Assault on Precinct 13, his ease with firearms/action following time in the army, his fellow actors, and the film's popularity.
- The Sassy One (12:40, HD) – The second new interview features actress Nancy Loomis Kyes, who also talks about her early career, meeting Wallace and Carpenter at USC, getting the job on Assault on Precinct 13, her additional work as a wardrobe mistress and set designer, and her continuing collaboration with Carpenter on Halloween, The Fog, and Halloween III.
- Interview with John Carpenter and Austin Stoker (23:10, SD) – This Q&A from a 2002 screening is a hold-over from the older Image releases and features a lot of overlap with the commentary and Stoker's new interview.
- Trailer
- Radio Spots
- Still Gallery
Assault on Precinct 13 remains a thoroughly intense experience, despite its age and a half-decent remake stealing some of its thunder over the years. I regret not having revisited it for quite some time (probably more than a decade) and a, very happy that Shout Factory's new release has finally forced my hand. This release features a very filmic transfer that isn't overwhelmed by digital tinkering (the colour timing is a smidge unnatural), 5.1 and original mono soundtracks (both in DTS-HD audio), and a decent collection of old and new special features.

As the story goes, Alex Emodi, a Hungarian immigrant, was driving around and exploring the Hudson Valley with his wife, Magda, when he spotted a car with a rowing shell on the roof.
As the story goes, Alex Emodi, a Hungarian immigrant, was driving around and exploring the Hudson Valley with his wife, Magda, when he spotted a car with a rowing shell on the roof.
He followed the car to Greenwood Lake, and the rest is history.
Emodi, one of the founding fathers of rowing in the Hudson Valley, died this weekend after a stroke at the age of 82.
As the president of the East Arm Rowing Club on Greenwood Lake for more than a decade, Emodi turned a rundown club into one of the premier organizations on the East Coast.
"When he got here there were maybe 12 people rowing out of there," said Jim Cody, coach of the Warwick High School team and vice president of the East Arm Rowing Club. "They had a couple of broken-down boats they were using. Now we have over 100 members and probably $100,000 worth of boats."
The EARC has produced world-class athletes, including Warwick and Iona College graduate Frank Petrucci, who got his start in the sport when he saw a sign-up sheet during high school orientation.
"Right now, I'm living in Oklahoma, training for the national team," Petrucci said. "Alex is definitely a huge part of allowing that to happen. He is definitely an inspiration as far as his own athletic achievements and he is somebody who I have looked up to my entire rowing career.
"I've been rowing nine years now and he was there from the very beginning to help me improve my stroke and become a much better athlete, to show me how to train, to be disciplined and have a daily routine. I owe the majority of my success to the life lessons he taught me."
Petrucci, 24, estimates that three quarters of the people he currently trains with are Ivy League graduates and grew up rowing in programs with bigger budgets than EARC. Emodi's energy and passion for the sport helped his club develop rowers able to compete on the next level.
"East Arm is a model in that respect, really stretching the dollar and trying to break the stigma of rowing being a rich man's sport," Petrucci said. "The club dues at East Arm are the lowest I've ever heard of anybody paying. I'd say for Alex and everybody on the board there, that was one of the things that was very important to them, to bring rowing to a community that would never otherwise be introduced to it, which is a wonderful thing."
Emodi, a resident of Morristown, N.J., is survived by his wife and two children.
In 1956, Emodi was a member of the Hungarian national rowing team that missed that summer's Olympic Games in Melbourne because of the revolution in Hungary.
"Everybody in the Warwick Valley that knows how to row has been taught by Alex," Cody said. "If they weren't taught by Alex, then the person that did was probably taught by Alex. He was the founding father of rowing in the Warwick Valley. If it wasn't for him, I would have never found it or stayed with it, I'm sure."

PHOENIX (AP) - Tyler Skaggs pitched eight innings of three-hit ball in his return to Arizona's rotation, and the Diamondbacks opened a 10-game homestand with a 5-0 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.
Skaggs (2-1), who turns 22 next week and is considered one of the top pitching prospects in the game, struck out five and walked one after he was recalled from Triple-A Reno for the second time this season.
Paul Goldschmidt drove in two runs with a double and single, raising his NL-leading total to 71 RBIs. A.J. Pollock had two hits and scored three times, and Aaron Hill had a two-run single.
Colorado's Jorge De La Rosa (8-5) gave up three runs and seven hits in 5 1-3 innings. He had allowed three runs combined in his previous three starts.

McClure retires after 14 years with Falcons
ATLANTA (AP) — Falcons owner Arthur Blank said Monday that retiring center Todd McClure will have a new home in the team's Ring of Honor.
McClure, the Falcons' longtime center, officially announced his retirement in a ceremony attended by quarterback Matt Ryan and offensive linemen Tyson Clabo, Sam Baker and Justin Blalock.
Blank said McClure's career merits him joining former stars as Deion Sanders, Tommy Nobis and Steve Bartkowski in the team's Ring of Honor.
"You deserve to be in that Ring of Honor, and we will get you there as soon as we can," Blank said while pointing out another longtime center, Jeff Van Note, also earned the team's highest honor for a former player.
McClure was a seventh-round pick out of LSU in 1999 and went on to become one of the team's most durable players. He set a franchise record with 148 consecutive starts and missed only four games over the last dozen seasons. He didn't play in his 1999 rookie season but became one of the team's most reliable starters the last 13 seasons.
McClure, 36, was emotional at times, including when he looked at his teammates and when he talked about the support from his family. He stopped and looked down several times during the news conference.
"That's what I'm going to miss the most about this game, guys like those sitting right here," McClure said. "The friendships we've had, the conversations we've had, the joy we've had in the locker room on Sunday after a big win, the struggles we've gone through and gotten each other through. ... I cherish every moment that we've spent together."
Clabo said it was difficult watching McClure struggle with his emotions.
"How could I not come?" asked Clabo, the offensive tackle who joined McClure on the Falcons' starting line for seven seasons.
"I can promise you I wouldn't have the success I've had without him," Clabo said. "He's an incredible mentor. It's going to take several leaders to do the job he did in that respect."
McClure also joked he would have returned for another season if offered the same deal as tight end Tony Gonzalez, who postponed his planned retirement when he agreed to return for 2013.
"My offer to the Falcons was I'd play for $10 million and no training camp and half the home games, but Tony had already taken that offer," McClure said.
McClure played in 198 games, including 195 starts. He made every start in 2012 after missing three games in 2011 with a right knee injury. He often played through knee problems.
"I'm going to look forward to waking up on Monday morning and being able to walk," McClure said.
Coach Mike Smith said he always relied on McClure as a leader.
"Believe me, if we don't have mentors and guys like Todd McClure on our team, we don't have the success we've had over the last five years," Smith said.
"I could always go to Todd and really get the temperature of that room, what's going on in that locker room. It didn't matter if you're a first-year player or a 10-year player, everybody wanted to talk to Todd about how we were doing things. He's a head coach's dream to have around."
McClure said he was grateful he played only for the Falcons.
"To be in one place for my whole career, I definitely feel blessed," he said. "It will be hard for guys to do that, just with the nature of the business. I'll cherish that forever.
"I love this franchise. I'll be a Falcon for life."
Among the candidates to start at center will be Peter Konz, who started 10 games at right guard as a rookie in 2012, and Joe Hawley.
Ryan, entering his sixth season, said McClure is "just the consummate professional, the best we've ever had."
Banners hang from the Georgia Dome rafters to honor former players in the Ring of Honor. Only eight players have earned the honor, including William Andrews, Jessie Tuggle, Mike Kenn, Claude Humphrey, Bartkowski, Van Note, Sanders and Nobis. Sanders was the last player to join the ring in 2010.

Mariah Carey's done trying to keep a lid on her pregnancy.
"Yes we are pregnant, this is true!" she told "Access Hollywood's" Billy Bush in a segment aired on NBC's "Today" show. "It's been a long journey, but it's been tough because I've been trying to have ... to hold onto a shred of privacy. And that was not easy."
The 40-year-old songbird, who spoke from her home in Downtown Manhattan Tribeca, didn't say how far along she is but said she is "expecting in the spring."
Carey, who is about to drop her new album, "Merry Christmas 2 U," appeared with hubby Nick Cannon.
"It's absolutely emotional, but first, so many reasons I mean obviously the greatest gift on earth is a child," Cannon said. "But ... you know how much we have been through, you know."
Cannon, 29, was referring to a previously undisclosed miscarriage. That came two years ago, shortly after the couple's secret wedding.
"It was really sad so we had to just, we had really to absorb this and take it in," Carey said.
Bush said the couple conceived naturally, and that they would not be finding out whether the baby was a boy or a girl before its birth.

Neowave Media necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 423 diseños de 116 diseñadores freelance.
Hi guys,
I've used contests before to have logos designed, but on the SomethingAwful forums. This site is just brilliant. I'm actually a little jealous I didn't think of it.
TripHip is going to be a new travel web 2.0 site, different from all the others in that it won't suck or be overly complicated. I want a logo to match: unique, memorable, but simple.
I guarantee I'll pick a winning logo by the end of the contest.
Take a look at the brief for more details
*Edit* Take a look at my comments below for additional details as the contest goes on.
TripHip or triphip
Covered in the wants.
- Text can be "TripHip" or "triphip". Try both.
- Think web 2.0 style and colors.
- Logo must be vector based that scales well small and large and could be used in print, on t-shirts, etc.
- An ORIGINAL and UNIQUE graphic that is to the right or the left of the logo. Would like it to be something related to the fact that this is a social travel website, word of mouth travel information, if possible, instead of just some travel stock image, but open to ideas.
- Instead of a graphic, there could be something unique or modified about text itself (like this logo http://entries3.99static.com/contes…ies/275996 ). In other words, a modified character from one or more of the letters in "TripHip". Either way, think fun, travel and hip (Cool and keenly aware of or knowledgeable about the latest trends or developments)
- The graphic (or a modified/simplified version of it) should scale well, so that it can be used as a favicon on the site.
- Some color in text and/or graphic. Be creative with color. Submit variations.
- Be creative. This is a web 2.0 travel website. Think of some way to work that into meaning of logo. Think fun, travel and hip (Cool and keenly aware of or knowledgeable about the latest trends or developments)
- Overall, I am looking for a logo that's simple, but cool and fun and has something that grabs you about it, something unique.
- Here are some company logos I like (doesn't mean I want my logo to look like them, but to give you an idea of what I like): yelp (simple, and cool unique graphic that can be used as favicon and to create a brand), clearwire (love the way they modified the "i"), this one: http://entries3.99static.com/contes…ies/275996 (great use of the leaf in the o -- I like a lot of the other work by LogoB as well: http://99designs.com/users/147806 ), and finally, I love the work of Mogeek: http://99designs.com/users/189990 because he creates clean and simple, but unique logos with great graphics to go with them.
- Logos that won't look good at small sizes
- Bitmap logos
- Overly complex logos
