It's All About the Culture
Napoleon Chagnon is one of the best-known living cultural anthropologists, and the Yanomamo
are one of the best-known pre-modern societies. Chagnon also wrote cogently about his experience studying the Yanomamo,
who are particularly renowned for their aggressiveness (although there are some who question this interpretation). In
the introduction of his case study Yanamamo: The Fierce People, he tells the story of entering their society and the challenges he faced in doing fieldwork with them. Of course,
not all fieldwork experiences are alike, but he raises some of the perennial issues that we all face in the encounter with
others unlike ourselves.
I spent nineteen months with the Yanomamo, during which time I acquired some proficiency
in their language and, up to a point, submerged myself in their culture and way of life. The thing that impressed me
most was the importance of aggression in their culture. I had the opportunity to witness a good many incidents that
expressed individual vindictiveness on the one hand and collective bellicosity on the other. There ranged in seriousness
from the ordinary incidents of wife beating and chest pounding to dueling and organized raiding by parties that set out with
the intention of ambushing and killing men from enemy villages…. I collected the data [about
their culture] under somewhat trying circumstances, some of which I will describe in order to give the student a rough idea
of what is generally meant when anthropologists speak of "culture shock" and "fieldwork." It
should be borne in mind, however, that each field situation is in many respects unique, so that the problems I encountered
do not necessarily exhaust the range of possible problems other anthropologists have confronted in other areas. There
are a few problems, however, that seem to be nearly universal among anthropological fieldworkers, particularly those having
to do with eating, bathing, sleeping, lack of privacy and loneliness, or discovering that primitive man is not always as noble
as you originally thought…. My first day in the field illustrated to me what my teachers
meant when they spoke of "culture shock." I had traveled in a small, aluminum rowboat propelled by a large
outboard motor for two and a half days. This took me from the Territorial capital, a small town on the Orinoco River,
deep into Yanomamo country. On the morning of the third day we reached a small mission settlement, the field "headquarters"
of a group of Americans who were working in two Yanomamo villages. The missionaries had come out of these villages to
hold their annual conference on the progress of their mission work, and were conducting meetings when I arrived. We
picked up a passenger at the mission station, James P. Barker, the first non-Yanomamo to make a sustained, permanent contact
with the tribe (in 1930)…. We arrived at the village, Bisaasi-teri, about 2:00pm and docked the
boat along a muddy bank at the terminus of the path used by the Indians to fetch their drinking water. It was hot and
muggy, and my clothing was soaked with perspiration. It clung uncomfortably to my body, as it did for the remainder
of the work. The small, biting gnats were out in astronomical numbers, for it was the beginning of the dry season.
My face and hands were swollen from the venom of their numerous stings. In just a few moments I was to meet my first
Yanomamo, my first primitive man. What would it be like? I had visions of entering the village and seeing 125
social facts running about calling each other kinship terms and sharing food, each waiting and anxious to have me collect
his genealogy. I would wear them out in turn. Would they like me? This was important to me; I wanted them
to be so fond of me that they would adopt me into their kinship system and way of life, because I had heard that successful
anthropologists always get adopted by their people. I had learned during my seven years of anthropological training
at the University of Michigan that kinship was equivalent to society in primitive tribes and that it was a moral way of life,
"moral" being something "good" or "desirable." I was determined to work my way into
their moral system of kinship and become a member of their society. My heart began to pound
as we approached the village and heard the buzz of activity within the circular compound. Mr. Barker commented that
he was anxious to see if any changes had taken place while he was away and wondered how many of them had died during his absence.
I felt into my back pocket to make sure that my notebook was still there and felt personally more secure when I touched it.
Otherwise, I would not have known what to do with my hands. The entrance to the village was covered over with
brush and dry palm leaves. We pushed them aside to expose the low opening to the village. The excitement of meeting
my first Indians was almost unbearable as I duck-waddled through the low passage into the village clearing.
I looked up and gasped when I saw a dozen burly men, naked, filthy, hideous men staring at us down the shafts of their drawn
arrows! Immense wads of green tobacco were stuck between their lower teeth and lips making them look even more hideous,
and strands of dark-green slime dripped or hung from their noses. We arrived at the village while the men were blowing
a hallucinogenic drug up their noses. One of the side effects of the drug is a runny nose. The mucus is always
saturated with the green powder and the Indians usually let it run freely from their nostrils. My next discovery was
that there were a dozen or so vicious, underfed dogs snapping at my legs, circling me as if I were going to be their next
meal. I just stood there holding my notebook, helpless and pathetic. Then the stench of the decaying vegetation
and filth struck me and I almost got sick. I was horrified. What sort of a welcome was this for a person who came
here to live with you and learn your way of life, to become friends with you? They put their weapons down when they
recognized Barker and returned to their chanting, keeping a nervous eye on the village entrances.
We had arrived just after a serious fight. Seven women had been abducted the day before by a neighboring group, and
the local men and their guests had just that morning recovered five of them in a brutal club fight that nearly ended in a
shooting war. The abductors, angry because they lost five of the seven captives, vowed to raid the Bisaasi-teri.
When we arrived and entered the village unexpectedly, the Indians feared that we were the raiders. On several occasions
during the next two hours the men in the village jumped to their feet, armed themselves, and waited nervously for the noise
outside the village to be identified. My enthusiasm for collecting ethnographic curiosities diminished in proportion
to the number of times such as alarm was raised. In fact, I was relieved when Mr. Barker suggested that we sleep across
the river for the evening. It would be safer there. As we walked down the path to
the boat, I pondered the wisdom of having decided to spend a year and a half with this tribe before I had even seen what they
were like. I am not ashamed to admit, either, that had there been a diplomatic way out, I would have ended my fieldwork
then and there. I did not look forward to the next day when I would be left alone with the Indians; I did not speak
a word of their language, and they were decidedly different from what I had imagined them to be. The whole situation
was depressing, and I wondered why I ever decided to switch from civil engineering to anthropology in the first place.
I had not eaten all day, I was soaking wet from perspiration, the gnats were biting me, and I was covered with red pigment,
the result of a dozen or so complete examinations I had been given by as many burly Indians. These examinations capped
an otherwise grim day. The Indians would blow their noses into their hands, flick as much of the mucus off that would
separate in a snap of the wrist, wipe the residue into their hair, and then carefully examine my face, arms, legs, hair, and
the contents of my pockets. I asked Mr. Barker how to say "Your hands are dirty"; my comments were met by
the Indians in the following way: They would "clean" their hands by spitting a quantity of slimy tobacco juice
into them, rub them together, and then proceed with the examination…. So much for my discovery
that primitive man is not the picture of nobility and sanitation I had conceived him to be. I soon discovered that it was
an enormously time-consuming task to maintain my own body in the manner to which it had grown accustomed in the relatively
antiseptic environment of the northern United States. Either I could be relatively well fed and relatively comfortable
in a fresh change of clothes and do very little fieldwork, or, I could do considerably more fieldwork and be less well fed
and less comfortable…. Eating three meals a day was out of the question. I solved
the problem by eating a single meal that could be prepared in a single container, or, at most, two containers, washed my dishes
only when there were no clean ones left, using cold river water, and wore each change of clothing at least a week to cut down
on my laundry problem, a courageous undertaking in the tropics. I was also less concerned about sharing my provisions
with rats, insects, Indians, and the elements, thereby eliminating the need for my complicated storage process. I was
able to last most of the day on cafe con leche, heavily sugared expresso coffee diluted about five to one with hot milk.
I would prepare this in the evening and store it in a thermos. Frequently, my single meal was no more complicated than
a can of sardines and a package of crackers. But at least two or three times a week I would do something sophisticated,
like make oatmeal or boil rice and add a can of tuna fish or tomato paste to it. I even saved time by devising a water
system that obviated the trips to the river. I had a few sheets of zinc roofing brought in and made a rain-water trap;
I caught the water on the zinc surface, funneled it into an empty gasoline drum, and then ran a plastic hose from the drum
to my hut. When the drum was exhausted in the dry season, I hired the Indians to fill it with water from the river….
Meals were a problem in another way. Food sharing is important to the Yanomamo in the context of displaying friendship.
"I am hungry," is almost a form of greeting with them. I could not possibly have brought enough food with
me to feed the entire village, yet they seemed not to understand this. All they could see was that I did not share my
food with them at each and every meal. Nor could I enter into their system of reciprocities with respect to food; every
time one of them gave me something "freely," he would dog me for months to pay it back, not with food, but with
steel tools. Thus, if I accepted a plantain from someone in a different village while I was on a visit, he would most
likely visit me in the future and demand a machete as payment for the time that he "fed" me. I usually reacted
to these kinds of demands by giving a banana, the customary reciprocity in their culture—food for food—but this
would be a disappointment for the individual who had visions of that single plantain growing into a machete over time….
Finally, there was the problem of being lonely and separated from your own kind, especially your family. I tried to
overcome this by seeking personal friendships among the Indians. This only complicated the matter because all my friends
simply used my confidence to gain privileged access to my cache of steel tools and trade goods, and looted me. I would
be bitterly disappointed that my "friend" thought no more of me than to finesse our relationship exclusively with
the intention of getting at my locked up possessions, and my depression would hit new lows every time I discovered this.
The loss of the possession bothered me much less than the shock that I was, as far as most of them were concerned, nothing
more than a source of desirable items; no holds were barred in relieving me of these, since I was considered something subhuman,
a non-Yanomamo. The thing that bothered me most was the incessant, passioned, and aggressive
demands the Indians made. It would become so unbearable that I would have to lock myself in my mud hut once in a while
just to escape from it: Privacy is one of Western culture's greatest achievements. But I did not want privacy
for its own sake; rather, I simply had to get away from the begging. Day and night for the entire time I lived with
the Yanomamo I was plagued by such demands as: "Give me a knife, I am poor!"; "If you don't take me
with you on your next trip…I'll chop a hole in your canoe!"; "Don't point your camera at me
or I'll hit you!"…. Giving in to a demand always established a new threshold;
the next demand would be for bigger items or favor, and the anger of the Indians even greater if the demand was not met.
I soon learned that I had to become very much like the Yanomamo to be able to get along with them on their terms: sly, aggressive,
and intimidating. Had I failed to adjust in this fashion I would have lost six months of
supplies to them in a single day or would have spent most of my time ferrying them around in my canoe or hunting for them.
As it was, I did spend a considerable amount of time doing these things and did succumb to their outrageous demands for axes
and machetes, at least at first. More importantly, had I failed to demonstrate that I could not be pushed around beyond
a certain point, I would have been the subject of far more ridicule, theft, and practical jokes than was the actual case.
In short, I had to acquire a certain proficiency in their kind of interpersonal politics and to learn how to imply subtly
that certain potentially undesirable consequences might follow if they did such and such to me….It was sort of like
a political game that everyone played, but one in which each individual sooner or later had to display some sign that his
bluffs and implied threats could be backed up. I suspect that the frequency of wife beating is a component of this syndrome,
since men can display their ferocity and show others that they are capable of violence. Beating a wife with a club is
considered to be an acceptable way of displaying ferocity and one that does not expose the male to much danger. The
important thing is that the man has displayed his potential for violence and the implication is that other men better treat
him with respect and caution…. With respect to collecting the data I sought, there was a
very frustrating problem. Primitive social organization is kinship organization, and to understand the Yanomamo way
of life I had to collect extensive genealogies. I could note have deliberately picked a more difficult group to work
with in this regard. They have very stringer name taboos. They attempt to name people in such a way that when
the person dies and they can no longer use his name, the loss of the word in the language is not inconvenient. Hence,
they name people for specific and minute parts of things, such as "toenail of some rodent," thereby being able
to retain the words "toenail" and "(specific) rodent," but not being able to refer directly to the
toenail of that rodent. The taboo is maintained even for the living: One mark of prestige is the courtesy others show
you by not using your name. The sanctions behind the taboo seem to be an unusual combination of fear and respect.I
tried to use kinship terms to collect genealogies at first, but the kinship terms were so ambiguous that I ultimately had
to resort to names. They were quick to grasp that I was bound to learn everybody's name and reacted, without my
knowing it, by inventing false names for everybody in the village. After having spent several months collecting names
and learning them, this came as a disappointment to me: I could not cross-check the genealogies with other informants from
distant villages. They enjoyed watching me learn these names. I assumed, wrongly, that I
would get the truth to each question and that I would get the best information by working in public. This set the stage
for converting a serious project into a farce. Each informant tried to outdo his peers by inventing a name even more
ridiculous than what I had been given earlier, or by asserting that the individual about whom I inquired was married to his
mother or daughter, and the like. I would have the informant whisper the name of the individual in my ear, noting that
he was the father of such and such a child. Everybody would then insist that I repeat the name aloud, roaring in hysterics
as I clumsily pronounced the name. I assumed that the laughter was in response to the violation of the name taboo or
to my pronunciation. This was a reasonable interpretation, since the individual whose name I said aloud invariably became
angry. After I learned what some of the names meant, I began to understand what the laughter was all about. A
few of the more colorful examples are: "hairy vagina," "long penis," "feces of the harpy eagle,"
and "dirty rectum." No wonder the victims were angry. I was forced to do my
genealogy work in private because of the horseplay and nonsense. Once I did so, my informants began to agree with each
other and I managed to learn a few new names, real names. I could then test any new informant by collecting a genealogy
from him that I knew to be accurate. I was able to weed out the more mischievous informants this way. Little by
little I extended the genealogies and learned the real names. Still, I was unable to get the names of the dead and extend
the genealogies back in time, and even my best informants continued to deceive me about their own close relatives. Most
of them gave me the name of a living man as the father of some individual in order to avoid mentioning that the actual father
was dead….…I began taking advantage of local arguments and animosities in selecting my informants, and used
more extensively individuals who had married into the group. I began traveling to other villages to check the genealogies,
picking villages that were on strained terms with the people about whom I wanted information. I would then return to
my base camp and check with local informants the accuracy of the new information. If the informants became angry when
I mentioned the new names I acquired from the unfriendly group, I was almost certain that the information was accurate.
For this kind of checking I had to use informants whose genealogies I knew rather well: they had to be distantly enough related
to the dead person that they would not go into a rage when I mentioned the name, but not so remotely related that they would
be uncertain of the accuracy of the information. Thus, I had to make a list of names that I dared not use in the presence
of each and every informant. Despite the precautions, I occasionally hit a name that put the informant into a rage,
such as that of a dead brother or sister that other informants had not reported. This always terminated the day's
work with that informant, for he would be too touch to continue any further, and I would be reluctant to take a chance on
accidentally discovering another dead kinsman so soon after the first.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'News' started by MDR, Jun 22, 2008.
some encouraging roadster production line info:
Orrin Hatch - Plug-In Electric Vehicles 2008
Good find MDR. Thank you.
I've not heard this 2-cars-a-day figure before. You're right - This is genuine, encouraging GOOD NEWS.
So why does Tesla bury it in some random website? Why can't the TM website homepage feature two counters:-
X Roadsters built last week/ today / so far / whatever
Y Roadsters delivered so far etc.
I know it's really irritating when people like me keep going on about the old TM style, but the weekly blog update we all used to follow would have solved this:-
The Blog Editor could drop in a weekly update:
Roadsters in Hethel: X
Roadsters mid-Atlantic: Y
Roadsters in San Carlos: Z
Roadsters were delivered this week to: Los Angeles x 2, San Francisco, Chicago
Damnit it doesn't have to be a blog. It could be an online "Production Update" press release or an e-mailed newsletter.
But this sort of info may just be communicated to those on the waiting list. Pity
I think there'll be a production update coming out soon.
I can understand Tesla not wanting a counter running and thus every production hiccup second guessed by the public. Maybe after things are going more smoothly.
Anyone else notice that no new postings have shown up on the 'official' Tesla blogs since June 19th? Is their moderator on vacation or something?
Or they just ran out of "appropriate" comments...
Have you watched the videos of the Roadster all over Europe? Must be hard to keep up with pesky things like your job when having so much fun.
Personally I'd say being out promoting the car in places where people with money exist is more doing your job than putting a few words on the internet. If they have fun while doing that, I'm happy for them.
And that lap of Le Mans has just silenced more of the doubters in my group of friends than any blog entry ever could.
However there was a blog entry on Sweden at the end of last week that now seems to have been pulled, together with my comment.
It is a tough balance. At some stage there was always going to have to be some form of transition to a more "exclusive" area for Roadster owners: Tesla Motors - feel whilst keeping the more public areas going for Whitestar.
Something simple like that, yeah.
Remember that time in late 2006 when two whole weeks went by without a new blog entry and commenters were predicting the imminent demise of the company?
But then it took me a while to accept Martin's departure. http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/4146-post6.html
That was a big kick in the brand loyalty.

NewsWire: Glitches Hamper Progress on Lord of the Rings Films
Actor Ian McKellen is happy with his scenes as Gandalf the wizard.
The Ottawa Citizen
The eagerly awaited Lord of the Rings trilogy may be costing more than $270 million U.S., but apparently filmmakers fudged on the money for adequate soundproofing at the New Zealand studios where the movie was shot.
"The Wellington film studios not being soundproofed, almost all the dialogue has had to be replaced," writes star Ian McKellen on his personal Web site, www.mckellen.com . Several of McKellen's colleagues were called in to London sound studios to re-record their lines. But the project encountered an additional problem -- the prologue. So McKellen, who plays the wizard Gandalf in the trilogy, was flown back to New Zealand to shoot a new opening.
New Zealand producer-director Peter Jackson decided to abandon the original prologue because it wasn't audience friendly. McKellen is forthright in saying that he thinks Jackson made the right move. "A prologue, with its stash of names and facts, can unnerve audiences, and I am relieved that ours has gone."
The project has been shrouded in secrecy since filming began in New Zealand some 20 months ago. The first film in the trilogy, Fellowship of the Ring, is due for release Dec. 19, with the two other instalments set to arrive in December 2002 and December 2003. Although all actors, extras and support staff signed secrecy agreements before hiring, McKellen's Web site has been surprisingly informative.
Despite the glitches, McKellen says he's seen enough of the movie to know that it will be worth waiting for. "It's been greatly reassuring to be able to view the Gandalf scenes and to see how excitingly the story is being told and how movingly the characters relate to each other."
McKellen also had a glimpse of some of the first instalment's final scenes. "At the end of this first film, Frodo and Sam are separated from the rest and row across the river, destination Mount Doom: on even a scratchy video, Elijah Wood and Sean Astin are heart-breaking and couldn't be better. Trust me: it is magnificent."

100 Books #98 - Stephen King's THE DARK TOWER
Well, thank Bog that's over.
I'll tell you what: for a while there, I was going to let that sentence be my whole review. The Dark Tower, also known as last 1050 pages of the enormous Dark Tower saga, was pretty rough going for me. Mostly in terms of sheer annoyance.
Unlike most of the series' true fans and Constant Readers -- and I know a lot of them, online and in meatspace -- I never really bonded with the characters, mostly because, as I've complained of in all of my other posts about these books, these characters never really came to life for me.* Oh, they came close, every single one of them. But it always seemed like just as soon as they were doing so, the author yanked hard on their puppet strings and made them dance to his tune instead of their own. I've come to expect that from King, but after watching him do that for hundreds and thousands of pages, to the same five main characters and a host of secondaries, I'm punchy and exhausted and annoyed as hell and want to punch the man in the crotch.
But then there's the ending. And let me tell you this: I dug the ending. Oh, not the wish fulfillment happy ending in Central Park, but what we learn in the coda. Seriously: after wading through all the muck of these last several books, that was really the only ending that would have earned my respect. Well done, Mr. King. I might even call you Sai King. Just this once.
*So no, I didn't cry or anything when anybody died. In large part this is probably because not a single death in this book is a surprise (well, except for one, and that one, that was just cheap. Hundreds of thousands of pages of shit-eating grins and traps and henchmen attacks and BOOM, a brand new player pulled off the bench in the last book gits him? UGH). I've complained of my ribs being sore from all the digging references to other elements of pop culture (Harry Potter. UGH); now my head is sore from its having been beaten over the head in advance of every death. Kate. Yeah. Hey, Kate. Kate. So and so is going to die. Are you ready for so and so to die, Kate? Because so and so is gonna die. And it's really going to be tragic. And it's going to make you sad. I'm really not sure you're ready. Because I'm not kidding. So and so is going to die. Hey, Kate, do you get it yet? So and so is gonna die. STOP STOP STOP.

Dude, I'm still pissed about Flagg.ReplyDelete
But seriously, wasn't the ending, like, the best way he could have done it? The coda was pretty much perfect, I think.
I'm sorry you didn't love it like we do, but even if you enjoyed it a little, I'll be happy. :) I'm proud of you for finishing it!ReplyDelete
Have not read this. Isn't it based on the Browning poem? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childe_Roland_to_the_Dark_Tower_CameReplyDeleteReplies
It is, in fact! Plus Oz, westerns, epic fantasy, creepshow horror and too much metafiction. Eight freaking novels!Delete

The Office of Undergraduate Studies consists of the Assistant Dean, Associate Director, four experienced Academic Advisors and two remarkably helpful administrative assistants. We do not assign specific advisors to each student so you are welcome to see whomever you choose or the first available advisor. Students have an Advisor of Record listed on your GPS but that is primarily for internal use and you are not obligated to meet with that person. It is preferred that students make appointments in advance using the online system, but we have at least one advisor on walk-in duty every day during normal working hours.
We are happy to answer simple questions over email, although we recommend you check the website first as it is a robust resource. We do ask that you email only one advisor at a time. Our small office serves nearly 1,800 students and it is incredibly inefficient to have more than one advisor working to meet your needs. Detailed questions are better addressed face to face when options can be considered and acted upon in real time.
The Mendoza Office of Undergraduate Studies is ready to assist our undergrads!
Assistant Dean Dale Nees joined the Mendoza Office of Undergraduate Studies in June 2011 and is responsible for the overall administration of the college's undergraduate program and student advising. His responsibilities include management of daily college operations, staff supervision, academic counseling and guidance, budgeting, and coordination of scheduling and classroom assignments. He serves as the dean's designee for all undergraduate academic matters. Dean Nees serves on several committees to include: University Academic Code and Policy Committee, University Committee on Admissions, Scholarship and Financial Aid, University Readmissions Committee, University Code of Honor Committee, Mendoza College Council and the Mendoza Undergraduate Curriculum Committee.
Prior to joining the Mendoza team he spent four years as the Professor of Naval Science and Chair of the Naval ROTC Department at the University of Notre Dame where he taught Leadership and Ethics. He served on active duty for 32 years retiring as a Navy Captain with extensive operational leadership and financial management experience in the Department of the Navy and Department of Defense. Dean Nees received his Bachelor of Science degree from the United States Naval Academy and earned a Master of Science degree in Management (Financial and Material Logistics) at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA. and a Master of Science degree in National Resource Strategy from the National Defense University's Industrial College of the Armed Forces, in Washington D.C.. He was also a 2005-2006 MIT Seminar XXI Fellow on Foreign Politics and International Relations.
Alison Levey (rhymes with Chevy) joined Mendoza as an advisor in September 2008 and was promoted in September 2015. She feels very much at home, having started her career on the other side of the desk as a graduate of the class of 1984. In addition to her BBA in Finance from Notre Dame, Alison holds a Master's degree in Education from Marymount University in Arlington, VA.
Effective in September 2018, Alison began phasing out of her one-on-one advising duties. As the Associate Director for Advising Services, Alison spearheads all office initiatives related to automation/technology, communication, student engagement and discernment. This includes managing the new Mendoza SMART app that is both a discernment and communications tool. She also serves as the advisor for both the Mendoza Student Leadership Association (MSLA) and the Undergraduate Women in Business (UWIB) club. Alison received the Dockweiler Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Advising in 2014 and the Dean's Achievement Award for outstanding commitment and service in 2016 & 2019. She also taught a section of the Moreau First Year Experience in 2017-18.
In addition to being an alumna, she is a Notre Dame legacy (Class of 1956), parent (Class of 2016) and faculty spouse. Alison loves to ride her bike, binge watch bad TV, and dreams of being proficient at yoga and publishing her children's books one day.
Sharon Clancy Orban has been a member of the Mendoza College of Business staff since 1969. Mrs. Clancy Orban provides academic guidance and counseling for all business students. She serves as the Mendoza Dean Reviewer for First Year of Studies transfer course requests and is the liaison with International Studies for programs in Australia and Asia.

In August 2002, she received the University of Notre Dame Award of Merit for exceptional performance and service to the University and in August 2003 was a member of the Undergraduate Advising Team receiving the University of Notre Dame Awards of Excellence "Team Irish Award."
Mrs. Clancy Orban has had only four supervisors in her 49 years at the University of Notre Dame. She has been fortunate to have served under and learned from the extraordinary leaderships of Professor Yusaku Furuhashi, Associate Dean Vincent Raymond, Assistant Dean Samuel Gaglio, and Assistant Dean Dale Nees.
Lisa Heming joined the Office of Undergraduate Studies in January 2017. But she's not new to Mendoza and has been with Notre Dame since 2006.

Prior to her return to Notre Dame, Amy worked in retail management and as an accounting associate for the Osceola County Florida Tax Collector.
As an Academic Advisor, Amy provides academic counseling and guidance for all business students. She also focuses on data analysis and generation of ad hoc reports which aid in delivering timely academic advice to our students. Amy graduated with a BA in Sociology from Notre Dame in 1995. Additionally, Amy earned a Master of Science in Education with an emphasis in Educational Leadership from Indiana University's School of Education. Amy also received the Dean's Achievement Award for outstanding commitment and service in 2017.
Gina Shropshire returned to her Alma Mater in the fall of 1998 after earning an MA in French Literature and a Ph.D. in Education from Purdue University. During her tenure in the Mendoza College of Business, Gina has divided her time between her academic advising duties and her commitment to working on diversity issues within the college and within the University at large.
In this latter capacity, Dr. Shropshire sits on many alumni and university-wide committees and coordinates special programs in the college aimed at providing both support for students of color and a forum where all students can be challenged to become agents of change. Gina also teaches the new and popular course called the "Moreau First Year Experience".
Gina is integral in coordinating the study abroad plans for many Mendoza students. Her coordination with the International Study Office ensures that Mendoza students have successful experiences.
Laura Glassford joined the Office of Undergraduate Studies as office manager in October 2004. She is responsible for all administrative aspects of the office and ensures that the office's many constituencies are satisfied.

Shrimp source needs to have clear origin.
Post-larvae of black tiger prawn size P15 - P20.
Post-larvae of whiteleg shrimp size P12 and upward.
Check the breed directly at the hatchery:
Direct observation: The length of shrimp post-larvae from the beginning of rostrum to end of tail ≥ 11 mm; shrimp with uniform size and size differences are no more than 15%. A completed outside structure: rostrum, straight antenna, fanned tail. Color: light gray, shiny shell. Quickly react when there are sudden impacts. Preying regularly; have full gut.
Microscopic observation with 100x or 150x magnification: Place shrimp post-larvae on a petri dish or coverslip with one drop of seawater. Observe rostrum, two antenna A1, A2, walking legs, abdomen leg, tail to find parasites. Observe the surface of the shell to look for lesions.
Use shocking method to find qualified shrimp:
Have about 20 shrimp post-larvae in a 300-ml beaker. Add fresh water to dramatically reduce salinity to 15‰, or add formalin to reach a concentration of 100 ‰, and then observe for 2 hours, if the survival rate is 95%, the breed is satisfied.
Send samples to breed testing laboratory for viral diseases such as white spot syndrome disease (WSSD), yellowhead disease (YHV), Hepatopancreatic parvovirus disease (HPV) in black tiger prawn, and Taura Syndrome in whiteleg shrimp.

"Ba-na-na dough-nut! Ba-na-na dough-nut!" Every afternoon, Milton's singsong call drifted down the beach and started me drooling.
A tub of warm, sugar-sprinkled banana doughnuts, freshly made from scratch, was tucked under an arm of this genial man with a Santa Claus beard and funky tropical hat.
Milton was one of a carnival of colorful characters we got to know as they plied a staggering selection of offerings up and down white, sandy West Bay Beach in front of our condo on Roatán Island. Among the items for sale were handmade wooden toys, carved conch shells and fresh fruit dished out from bowls balanced atop the heads of modern-day Carmen Mirandas.
My trip in December — a week on Roatán, the biggest of Honduras' three Bay Islands 35 miles off the coast — was a surprise present from my friend Michel to ease the pain of a big birthday.
Roatán, once the domain of Spanish conquistadors and British pirates, lies in the Caribbean at the southernmost tip of the 700-mile-long Mesoamerican Reef, the second biggest barrier reef in the world after Australia's Great Barrier Reef. It's a small, skinny island, about 45 miles long and barely 5 at its widest.
Though Honduras has, according to the U.S. State Department, "one of the highest murder rates in the world" (see the State Department travel warning at www.lat.ms/1PMCwcC), the Bay Islands are known to be much safer. All resorts and businesses have security staff, and there is a tourist police force. Although locals sometimes reminded us not to walk in certain areas with cameras exposed or suggested we take a taxi instead of strolling, we never felt unsafe. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also has identified the Zika virus in Roatán, so protect yourself from mosquitoes, and if you are pregnant you may want to save this trip for another time.
Our plan for the week was to hang out on our beach and explore the local town of West End, a short water taxi ride away. Then, when we got restless, we would rent a car for a day and head eastward along the length of the island to explore mangrove forests, funky seaside towns, wildlife refuges and remote beaches.
We landed in Coxen Hole, Roatán's steamy, no-frills main town on its western end. Freddie, a local taxi driver, picked us up for the 25-minute drive to West Bay Beach. Because we had a condo with a kitchen and love to cook, Freddie stopped for groceries at the Coxen Hole supermarket. He volunteered recommendations for local products, including beer — Salva Vida ("life saver," which it was) — chocolate made from island cocoa and Pirate's Grog rum.
We bumped across the island on a winding jungle road, popping out onto the coast at mile-long West Bay, Roatán's biggest beach, reclaimed from mangrove forests that fringe much of the island. It was lined with a pleasant jumble of luxury resorts, beachside casitas, condos and casual cafés and bars. A small "mall" provided most of seaside life's essentials, including gourmet goodies at Mangiamo, a well-stocked deli.
The next morning I took Freddie's advice and sampled the baleadas, a Honduran dish that begins with a flour tortilla. The kitchen at a rusty corrugated shack off the beach was already hopping in the light of dawn, with locals chatting to the rhythmic slap-slap of fresh tortillas being handmade, then flipped onto a hot stove.
I lined up for the Honduran take on tacos — warm, soft tortillas filled with refried beans, cheese, shredded chicken and fresh avocado — then took the breakfast wraps back to our patio overlooking the beach, something that would become a routine before we started each lazy tropical day in Roatán.
You won't believe the sea life you'll find in just six feet of water
Roatán is encircled by a lush underwater garden of corals and sponges teeming with marine life. Although it's best known as a stellar scuba-diving destination — and I've been an avid diver for decades — I quickly found as much to love about Roatán's jungle, retro-Caribbean towns, beach-shack menus and friendly folks.
I had signed up for a dive, but meanwhile, I headed into the shallows at West Bay Beach to snorkel with my friend Michel, who is not a diver.
We had flippered only 10 yards offshore when we reached an astonishingly healthy shallow reef busy with cleverly camouflaged flounder and scorpionfish, pods of squid, filefish and pucker-lip spotted trunkfish.
A blue cloud of fish — tangs — surged in a feeding frenzy among purple sponges, Elkhorn coral, sea fans and anemone. When two green sea turtles drifted past, I dived to follow them, gulping a mouthful of saltwater because I'd forgotten I wasn't diving, and no wonder — I'd never seen this diversity of underwater life in 6 feet of water.
Much of the island, including its west and east ends, is part of Roatán Marine Park, a grass-roots, community-based, nonprofit organization formed in 2005 when concerned dive operators and local businesses united to protect the island's fragile coral reefs.
My dive the next day was spectacular for its sea life, such as massive spotted eagle rays as well as nurse and reef sharks usually spotted in deeper water. The flexibility of beach-front snorkeling (especially with a nondiving buddy) made me happily pass on future dives. Michel and I settled into a relaxing routine of snorkeling every morning and late afternoon for the rest of the trip.

The North Star whispers: "You are one
Of those whose course no chance can change.
You blunder, but are not undone,
Your spirit-task is fixed and strange.
"When here you walk, a bloodless shade,
A singer all men else forget.
Your chants of hammer, forge and spade
Will move the prairie-village yet.
"That young, stiff-necked, reviling town
Beholds your fancies on her walls,
And paints them out or tears them down,
Or bars them from her feasting halls.
"Yet shall the fragments still remain;
Yet shall remain some watch-tower strong
That ivy-vines will not disdain,
Haunted and trembling with your song.
"Your flambeau in the dusk shall burn,
Flame high in storms, flame white and clear;
Your ghost in gleaming robes return
And burn a deathless incense here."

An Aylesbury Crown Court judge told a sick child abuser who systematically tortured a seven-year-old boy that he was guilty of 'unimaginable cruelty' as she jailed him for 11 years.
Ben Stevens, 34, of no fixed abode, tortured the boy over a period of five months.
Evidence presented to court included that Stevens forced the child to drink his own vomit and faeces, and punched him repeatedly in the groin, causing skin damage.
The child lost his nasal septum after he was repeatedly pulled by it. He sustained multiple bruises to his arms, face and legs.
On May 10, 2013 the boy sustained a deep burn to his hand after it was forced under a hot water tap that was found to be running at 82C.
It took four days for the child, from Wycombe, to be given adequate medical attention and when the child was hospitalised he required morphine to assist with the pain before plastic surgery for the full thickness burn.
In summing up, Her Honour Judge Kristina Montgomery said it was 'an act of unimaginable cruelty toward a child' adding: "This once happy child was now profoundly disturbed. The defendant had ruined his childhood and in adulthood he will bear the scars."
Stevens' defence counsel said he feels 'extremely sorry and if he could turn back the clock he would..the only thing he could offer was his early guilty pleas'.
Det Sgt Malcolm Wheeler of Thames Valley Police child abuse investigation unit said: "This was a sustained and systematic torture of a vulnerable child, which resulted in some of the worst injuries I have seen on a child in my career.
"Stevens is deemed to be a dangerous individual and I hope the lengthy time that he will have to spend in prison and on licence will give him a chance to reflect on what he has done and the repercussions that will continue in that child's life.
"The victim is now being supported and it is hoped that with the right help he can put those months of cruelty behind him and get on with his life."
Stevens was sentenced to nine years for the charge of wounding with intent and two years for the charge of cruelty to a child. Both sentences are to be served consecutively. As he was deemed a dangerous offender he had his sentence extended for a further three years these will be served on an extended licence.

We have made lentils, brown basmati rice, yukon gold potatoes, sweet potatoes, and more.....today: organic beets that became the food of the gods with very little time in the sun cooker! Why have I waited this long to get the solar cooking bug?
We are moving toward eating more and more raw foods....which were made by the sun in their own way. But, when we get a hankering for something cooked, nothing is better than sun cooking!
