Residential & Dining Services
Residence hall living is considered an integral part of a student's overall educational and personal development.
The Residence Life Program is dedicated to providing an environment that supports the classroom experience and contributes to the overall growth of the student.
In this group living environment, established practices and policies complement the student's educational and social needs, provide safety and health standards, and promote the overall educational objectives of the university.
- Cable TV and Internet
Digital Cable TV and Internet service are provided at no additional charge through the University's Computing and Communication Services department. There are over 80 Digital and HD Cable channels provided, as well as a Residence Life movie channel, which features 12 new movies each month. You must have a digital television in order to connect to the Cable system, and a QAM tuner built into the TV. A few brands do not come standard with QAM tuners. If your television does not have this technology, you may rent a cable box from Blue Ridge Communications for a nominal monthly charge. Cable Internet and wireless Internet service is available in every room.
For more information about Internet and technology in the Residence Halls please see Residence Hall Technology.
* No landline telephone service is provided in any residence hall.

There is a central laundry with washers and dryers in each residence hall. The cost of these machines is factored into your student fee. No payment is required at the time of use. All laundry machines are connected to the "Wash Alert" network. Check the availability and status of your current laundry.
- Mail Services
Traditional Halls, Suites Buildings and the University Apartments Mail and Packages: USPS mail addressed to individual residence halls is delivered Monday through Friday and distributed to assigned mailboxes. Outgoing mail may be deposited in the appropriate location in each residence hall. UPS, DHL, FedEx, and other private carriers also deliver to campus.
Residents will receive an email from "firstname.lastname@example.com" when a package is available to pick-up (please check the building's pick-up hours). Please check for the email prior to asking for the package. It is highly encouraged to remove email@example.com from the clutter folder for efficient notification. If the package fits in the mailbox, it will be placed there. Please check the mailbox prior to asking for the package.
Residents should notify correspondents of their correct mailbox number and residence hall to facilitate mail delivery. The proper format is:
Student Name
East Stroudsburg University
200 Prospect Street
Building Name, Room Number
East Stroudsburg, PA
18301-4 digit code for residence hall
Resident's Hall Name Zip Code Hawthorn Suites 18301-2998 Hemlock Suites 18301-2997 Laurel Hall 18301-2996 Linden Hall 18301-2994 Minsi Hall 18301-2993 Shawnee Hall 18301-2991 Sycamore Suites 18301-2999 University Apartments 18301-2999 University Ridge 18031-7807
University Ridge Mail and Packages: unlike the other ESU residential buildings, student mail is delivered directly to student mailboxes by the United States Postal Service (USPS). Ridge staff does not deliver any mail sent through USPS. Interoffice/campus mail service is not available at University Ridge. Student mail at the Ridge is delivered once a day Monday through Saturday, but it is not distributed on a regular daily schedule. Mail can be delivered at any time throughout the day. Ridge staff does not have access to student mailboxes. At University Ridge, any packages sent through a private shipping company (UPS, FedEx, DHL) will be delivered and signed for in the community center. Students will be notified via email when they have a package waiting to be picked up. Students must show ID when picking up a package. If a student is receiving a package via USPS, the package will be put in the student's mailbox. If the package is too large for the student's mailbox, the package will be placed in a large package locker located along the bottom row of student mailboxes. A key will be placed in the student's regular mailbox to access the package locker. If the package is too large for a package locker the package will be delivered and signed for in the office and processed as a package shipped by a private shipping company. One mailbox is shared by all four students living in an apartment.
Each student in the apartment will be issued a mailbox key at check-in.
- Renters InsuranceAll residential students are encouraged to research and secure renters insurance.

Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition
The release of a new limited edition by Omega probably won't come as a surprise to anyone. The brand has made something of a habit of releasing special edition models—from Seamaster Bond watches to a plethora of Speedmasters celebrating the watch's inextricable history with NASA (we recently covered the release of the Speedmaster 1957 trilogy, and have previously reviewed the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award, as just two examples.)
Watch our video review of the Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition 3184.108.40.206.01.001 above
So the Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday doesn't have the element of surprise working in its favour. It's a limited edition created specifically for the vast online community of Speedmaster fans—hence its 'Speedy Tuesday' moniker.
You've probably heard this now-commonplace term if you're a fan of the Speedmaster (and even if you aren't). It all started in 2012, when Robert-Jan Broer—founder of watch blog Fratello Watches—coined the term on Facebook, accompanying a picture of his Speedmaster Professional. The day he posted his 'Speedy' was a Tuesday, and so that was what he captioned his photo with—it's really as simple as that. It soon became a hashtag used world over, as people across the globe adopted it as a way of sharing their appreciation for this much beloved timepiece.
In tribute to #SpeedyTuesday, and in partnership with Broer, Omega released the Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition for pre-order at 12 noon Swiss time on 10 January 2017, in an effort to ensure it would be a Tuesday across all world timezones. It was perhaps expected to have limited appeal, and only 2,012 pieces were to be made. Reservations for the watch flooded in fast, and the watch had sold out within a few hours. (Incidentally, in keeping with the model's cyberspace origins, this also marked the first time Omega made a watch available to order online.)
It's not hard to see why the watch was so popular. Broer's appreciation for the Speedmaster and in-depth knowledge of its history shine through, and both he and the design team at Omega obviously took great pains to create a piece that is both good-looking and a fitting tribute to its heritage. Specifically, the watch's design was inspired by the Speedmaster Alaska III model, which was created in limited number (56 to be exact) for NASA in 1978. The space agency commissioned the Alaska III to be as legible as possible for use by astronauts on missions in space, and the Speedy Tuesday's design cues all stem from this specification.
Sleek and streamlined, the tapered 42mm case is stainless steel, and has been brushed to a fine matte finish. The steel is complemented by a matte black aluminium bezel, which features the Speedy's familiar tachymeter scale. Turn the case over and it bears the engraving, 'Speedy Tuesday Anniversary — A Tribute To Alaska Project III'.
With vintage-looking white subdials against a black background, the Speedy Tuesday features a 'reverse panda' dial (the opposite of a black on white 'panda dial') first used by Omega in 1966. The colour contrast adds a real sense of three dimensionality to the watch, which is only enhanced in the dark, when the subdials and numerals radiate a brilliant luminescence.
Beating within the watch is Omega's famous manual-wind calibre 1861, essentially the same movement that the astronauts who landed on the moon relied on, upgraded over time to improve its precision. It features a high-grade rhodium-plated finish, and has been tried, tested and certified by NASA. As a neat little extra, the watch comes with a calf leather watch pouch, which includes an additional NATO strap, engraved with #SpeedyTuesday on one of its loops, and a strap changing tool.
The Speedy Tuesday is an admirable effort by Omega to pay tribute to the fanbase of one of its most famous pieces, and the watch itself is striking in the flesh, combining a number of design ideas that we haven't before seen together in a Speedmaster. The model is not simply 'another Omega limited edition'; it might have been made for Speedy Tuesday, but it's the kind of watch you want to wear every day of the week.
Watch Spec | Omega Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday Limited Edition 3220.127.116.11.01.001
Case: Steel Dimensions: 42mm Crystal: Synthetic sapphire Water Resistance: 50m Movement: Manual, Omega calibre 1861 Frequency: 21,600 vph Power Reserve: 48 hours Strap: Brown leather/NATO Functions: Time, chronograph, tachymeter

2012 Dun Stallion
by Easy Move Whiskey
out of Hollywoods Lady Glo
Spirit is currently showing as a Reined Cowhorse. He got
a late start to the show pen, but had some wins in 2016. He had a full
Show Schedule in 2017, and met our expectations. His 2017 earnings
were $5000+. Before
he hit the training pen we bred Spirit to two mares to see how his
offspring looked and behaved. Both of the foals have good
conformation, are sound minded and athletic. Both his Sire and Dam
have earnings as Reined Cowhorses, so his potential to follow in
their footsteps is high. Spirit is expected to have a very limited
breeding season in 2018 and then go back to the Show Pen.

Why I Don't Do Amazon Reviews- Amazon Policies:
After an attempt to submit a review this is the message I received. (see Below) I don't do online shopping and because of this, I am unable to post reviews on Amazon. Even after contacting customer service I was told that I can't submit a review unless I have a credit card on file indicating a recent charge.
"Want to write a customer review?
To submit a customer review: you need to use an Amazon account that has successfully been charged for the purchase of a physical or digital item. Free digital downloads don't qualify. You don't need to have purchased the product you're reviewing. There's a 48-hour waiting period after your first physical order has been completely shipped, or your digital item has been purchased, before you'll be able to submit your review. Learn more about writing customer reviews.
Who can create customer reviews?
Anyone who has purchased items from Amazon.com. All we ask is that you follow a few simple rules (see "What's not allowed" below).
If your purchase was completed more than 48 hours ago, let us know here. "
Basically, you MUST make a purchase and have a credit card on file indicating a recent purchase. It doesn't matter if it is dog food, bed sheets, a watch or computer- you had to have made some sort of online purchase from Amazon and a credit card must have indicated recent or past purchase activity as proof.
If you are an author and contact customer service they probably simply told you the reviewer doesn't need to purchase your book or any book to post a review. That is PARTIALLY true. The whole truth to the story is that the reviewer must have a purchase history of some sort to do a review. Considering so many people do make online purchases with Amazon for other items this is usually not a problem. Nevertheless this alienates people who don't do online shopping- (not that Amazon cares about nonpaying customers anyway). Since when does making online purchases of other items give more credibility for a book review? (I can almost understand limiting reviews to the purchase of the particular item in question). SO if you an author offering free digital downloads for your book in exchange for a review on Amazon, only book reviewers with a purchase history can post a review.
And no, insisting simply you do not need to buy the book to post a review, does not change this policy that a purchasing history is required. Most likely if you probably also bought from Amazon, something and this limitation does not apply to you, nor will customer service tell you about this limitation unless you specifically ask about it or among those living on a strict budget who can't buy things online and find out the hard way that you can't post your review.
Also please note for Amazon reviewers- if the reviewer did not actually purchase the specific book or item he reviews- everyone will know it. Amazon now has a special icon "Amazon Verified Purchase" in bright orange font to designate authenticated purchases of those who do reviews of a particular book or item they actually paid $$$ for. The review will only get this icon if the reviewer actually purchased the item he reviewed. SO basically, any review without this bright orange AMAZON VERIFIED PURCHASE icon loses credibility. It means that the reviewer got the book for free without compensation and this is a tell tale sign. Barnes and Noble does NOT make that distinction.
Barnes & Noble does not have a restriction on writing reviews. You don't need to have a credit card on file to do a review and it doesn't matter if you have NEVER purchased anything- you can still submit a book review.
Verified Purchase Reviews
What's an "Amazon Verified Purchase" review?
When a product review is marked "Amazon Verified Purchase," it means that the customer who wrote the review purchased the item at Amazon.com. Customers can add this label to their review only if we can verify the item being reviewed was purchased at Amazon.com. Customers reading an Amazon Verified Purchase review can use this information to help them decide which reviews are most helpful in their purchasing decisions.
The Amazon Verified Review label offers one more way to help gauge the quality and relevance of a product review.
How can I make my review an "Amazon Verified Purchase"?
When you write a new review, you will be given the opportunity to mark your review as an Amazon Verified Purchase. If the checkbox doesn't appear, we were unable to verify you purchased the item at Amazon.
If you wrote a review for an item you purchased at Amazon previously and would like to mark it as an Amazon Verified Purchase, simply edit your existing review and the Amazon Verified Purchase checkbox should appear. After checking the box and saving your review, your review will immediately be marked as an Amazon Verified Purchase. You can also opt to mark all of your past reviews for products purchased at Amazon as Amazon Verified Purchase reviews using the corresponding checkbox during review editing or creation.

This weekend I ran into the Facebook 5000 Friends limit. In the last couple of weeks I had been receiving warnings because my friends-count together with the Pages I liked was already over 5000 and Facebook wants you to keep below that number.
The reason for this limitation according to Facebook is that nobody has 5000 real friends in life. If you have more connections you must be a celebrity and in that case you need a fanpage where your network can just click on a Like button to enter your network.
Nowadays newbies can opt to not have a personal profile and immediately choose for a Facebook Page (Some Belgian politicians did this recently). When I became a member of Facebook a normal user-profile was the only option available.
So the best option for me today was to start a Facebook Page, next to my profile ... and open the door for the next part of my large network.
Of course I can't do this without making a few humble suggestions to Facebook
- Get rid of this 5000 friends limit. Almost all online networks allow you to have as many connections as you want, they make sure that no tools are available that would allow to spam the whole list. I have over 20000 connections in my network, gathered over multiple online and offline networking groups. I'm only allowed to to let 25% of them connect to my Facebook profile which is weird !
- Why not offer an easy and userfriendly tool to transform your Facebook Profile into a Facebook Page ? Now I have to maintain and update two different pages on Facebook which doubles my time efforts
Anyway... as from now it's no longer possible to connect to my Facebook Profile, but feel free to Like my Facebook Page :-)

Dougherty & Company published their Weekly Report Card for wearable camera maker GoPro on August 3rd, and highlighted several notable developments at the still wet-behind-the-ears action camera firm. In the report, Dougherty analysts Charles Anderson and Jessica McHugh discuss current sales trends and offer some insights into the growth of the company's valuable media brand.
Key recent developments with action camera maker GoPro
Anderson and McHugh point out that Google searches for the GoPro brand increased by 10% year over year globally (compared to. +30% YOY the prior week) and flat YOY in the U.S. (compared to +22% YOY the prior week). Also of note, YouTube searches for "GoPro" increased by 4% YOY (compared to +23% YOY the previous week).
The analysts also note that the GoPro app on the iPhone in the U.S. slipped in the rankings by 20% YOY for the week (compared to -7% the prior week). App downloads on Google Play were off by 1% YOY (compared to -3% YOY the prior week). They highlight downloads moved down by 29% YOY on the iPad (compared to +4% YOY the previous week).
When comparing the camera GoPro is selling in China to the sub-$100 camera sold by Chinese brand Xiaomi, users of both iPhones and Android phones preferred GoPro last week. As of August 1st, the Xiaomi app was the 31st-most downloaded app in the Photography section of the Google Play app store in China and GoPro was 25th. For the iPhone, GoPro was No. 146 vs. Xiaomi No. 191.
Anderson and McHugh note two things to keep in mind in interpreting the above data: "1) GoPro YOY unit growth outperformed Google searches in Q4, Q1 and Q2 (as a brand matures, less keyword search research is necessary) 2) Apps downloaded do not capture buyers of the low-end $130 HERO camera (it has no Wi-Fi to pair with an app) nor do they capture repeat buyers of GoPro products (the app would already be installed)."
GoPro's media brand also continued its strong growth last week, with more than 21,000 new subscribers to its YouTube channel, which suggests a 35% annual growth rate, and more than 69,000 new Instagram followers (suggesting a 61% annual growth rate).

The Gulf of Mexico shrimp industry has made vast improvements in sustainability over the last 15 years, including stock monitoring, bycatch reduction, area closures, and sea turtle nesting enhancement projects. However, there is still room for improvements in sustainability. The Gulf of Mexico Shrimp Supply Chain Roundtable focuses on monitoring sustainability status and issues in US shrimp fisheries and pushes for improvements where they are needed.
While wild caught-shrimp are not the main source of global supply in the large-shrimp sector, the US Gulf of Mexico shrimp fisheries (contributing only around 1 percent of global production in the sector) are an important source at the doorstep of one of the major markets for large shrimp: the United States.
The Gulf of Mexico Shrimp Supply Chain Roundtable thus focuses on shrimp fisheries in the US Gulf of Mexico, primarily those targeting white, brown, and pink shrimp.
Fisheries and/or FIPs Covered:
The following FIPs are supported and monitored:
Alabama shrimp – small bottom trawl/skimmer nets
Gulf of Mexico northern pink shrimp – otter trawl
Louisiana shrimp – otter/skimmer trawl
For more details on the sustainability status of the fisheries, progress of the FIPs, and improvement recommendations, please follow this link.
Current Supply Chain Roundtable Participants include:
Bama Sea Products
Bayou Shrimp Processors, Inc.
Beaver Street Fisheries
Big Easy Foods
Biloxi Freezing & Processing, Inc.
Bluewater Shrimp Company, Inc.
Captain's Fine Foods
Cox's Wholesale Seafood
Galveston Shrimp Company
Gulf Pride Enterprises
JBS Packing Company, Inc.
Lafitte Frozen Foods
Oceans 97
Paul Piazza & Son, Inc.
Philly Seafood
Sunnyvale Seafood
Wood's Fisheries
Progress Update
A summary of past progress can be found in the SR Chronicles.
Improvement Needs and Recommendations
1. Resolve the remaining two barriers to eco-certification of the US Gulf of Mexico Shrimp Fishery. The Shrimp Bycatch Data Workshop, funded by the SR in July 2017, identified the following two issues as the primary barriers to eco-certification: 1) observer data precision and verifiability and 2) lack of recent full bycatch characterization. Workshop participants identified specific tasks/activities that could be undertaken to resolve these issues.
2. UpdateTED Compliance and Effectiveness data. TED Compliance and Effectiveness data are posted on the NOAA Southeast Regional Office's Sea Turtle Protection and Shrimp Fisheries webpage, but have not been updated since December 2017.
Current Objectives
SFP's general objectives for this roundtable are to provide a platform for the seafood supply chain to oversee shrimp fishery improvement projects (FIPs) throughout the Gulf of Mexico, learn from experience and develop best practices, and cooperate to apply leverage to drive further improvements. For 2018, the Supply Chain Roundtable participants agreed to undertake the three action recommendations below as the current objectives of the SR.
Action Recommendations for Suppliers
1. Seek funding to resolve the remaining barriers to eco-certification. The SR has requested a full proposal from LGL Ecological Research Associates for an Observer Data Verification Project. The preliminary proposal is to compare shrimp catch per unit effort (CPUE) from the Observer Program (2 percent coverage rate) and Electronic Logbook (40-50 percent coverage rate). If the shrimp CPUE data are similar, then the ELB program could serve as verification of the accuracy of the observer program in MSC or GULF certification assessments, without requiring an increase in the observer coverage rate. The SR will also work with other organizations that participated in the 2017 Bycatch Data Workshop to seek funding for a full bycatch characterization project.
2. Send a letter to the NOAA Southeast Regional Office requesting a public update of the Sea Turtle Capture Rates and TED Effectiveness data.
3. Monitor ongoing progress on ecosystem-based fishery management in the Gulf of Mexico by the Gulf Council and NOAA.
Project Contact
If you would like more information about the roundtable or wish to support it, please contact SFP.

For the last couple of months, I've been working on a new BNI start-up chapter, which has been really stimulating and fun process. I've really been enjoying the experience and have met some really amazing people. Last week one of the applicants came to me and said she was leaving because she had been told that it was easier to get into an existing chapter. This got me thinking, why would a potential applicant want to join a startup chapter over an existing one?
Existing chapters have developed a specific chapter culture over time and the culture of each BNI chapter is very different. It may surprise you that whilst the BNI Agenda and process is the same in every chapter around the world, the way each group delivers this can often be quite different. This is neither good nor bad it's just simply the result of 30 or 40 + people getting together and forming a norm as to how those people interact ie: creating a chapter culture which is typical human behaviour.
Existing chapter members already have relationships, members have been working together for some time and quite often have very established ways of behaving the chapter. This may or may not align with your expectations of being in a BNI chapter.
Some members often find it difficult to create relationships with people members in chapters. There is no reason for this but human behaviour is such that when you see a group of people interacting with each other it can often be quite challenging to break into. BNI has developed the passport program to help new members generate and build relationships quickly in existing chapters. The passport program is an excellent way for new members to generate relationships with existing members and done well, this can make joining an existing group very rewarding from the onset.
On the other hand being part of a startup chapter is very different. Everybody is on a level playing field. Personally having been part of BNI for some years, my preference today would be to be part of a startup because I would find that challenge exciting and rewarding as well as my ability to shape the group to align it for success. Everyone is different and at the end of the day, you need to make a decision for yourself and see what's right for you.
A major benefit of being part of a startup chapter everyone's in the same boat – everyone is swimming in the same direction and everybody wants to get in and result as quickly as possible. It's quite exciting for applicants to create something out of nothing. This is why startup chapters often create an exciting and dynamic culture and as an applicant, in a start-up chapter, you can be part of the cultural foundations of that group.
One of the big pluses of being part of a startup chapter is that you also get to bring in your trusted network. BNI works best when you have your closest referral partners in your BNI chapter. This ensures that you get the maximum amount of business from these people as you develop deeper and more long-lasting relationships. BNI is a great place to get even better business out of your existing partners because of the overlaying system of expectation, and accountability coupled with a really easy to use system for success.
Existing chapters may already have your trusted networks categories represented therefore these people would not be able to join that chapter. This means you'll be building relationships with potential new referral partners and this may cause conflict internally for you or externally for those who are seeking to generate referrals out of you, because it the end of the day there is a limited amount of business that you're going to be able to generate here existing network and for your new network.
So you can see being part of a start-up chapter and existing chapter both have their challenges and both have the pluses. At the end of the day, it depends on whether you want to be a driver and create the vision of a collective group of people who are all trying to create something new, or whether you are more interested in being part of something that has an established culture that you fit in well into. Either way, BNI Directors are there to guide and support you.
One of the things I say to anyone that comes to BNI is that you need to see how BNI operates – you need to see a couple of chapters to make up your mind as to whether or not this is the right place for you. Ultimately BNI is not for everyone. Making a considered decision about where you want to put your networking efforts will guide you as to which type of chapter is right for you.

Before you read these email marketing tips… Have you started your blog yet? If not, start here!!!
It seems like everyday you wake up and hear a new story about algorithm changes with social media. Let's be honest friends, we aren't in charge. An honest mentor once said to me, how can we complain about something that we don't pay for?
Truth be told, she's kind of right! For years, we paid nothing to promote our content across social media. With the onslaught of new technology, we were able to promote pretty easily. Things have changed. I recently heard that our social media content (you know that stuff we work so hard to curate!) gets seen by only 6% of our audience. YIKES! Without a huge budget, how can a blogger stand out, find their niche, and serve those they are wanting to serve?
I spent YEARS consumed with trying to find the perfect social media strategies. But truth be told, social media is someone else space. The only thing you really own, is your email list.
So, if you don't already have one, get started NOW! Don't get intimidated if you are starting out with ZERO email subscribers. Like anything, this stuff takes time. But, these email marketing tips should help you to get your subscriber list growing!
5 Easy steps to increase your email subscribers
- Offer a freebie – try different things! See what your readers love. Maybe they are really into recipes, or printables, or checklists!
- Have opt-ins on your website for your content – Convertkit helps me to easily add opt-ins to each of my blog posts! (Scroll down for more info on Convertkit and how I use it to grow my blog!)
- Use social media to connect with your current audience – social media is where the connection is! Serve, serve, serve, and THEN sell! Creating that community in an authentic way on your social media will make sure your tribe finds you!
- Create content that your readers will want to read more of! Sometimes it's hard to know what your readers want! Don't be afraid to ask them! Work smarter, not harder!
So what happens when your list does grow? Because it will happen! Don't be afraid to analyze what's working and what's not and make changes quickly! One of the biggest mistakes I've made in my 6 years of business has been to stick to something that isn't working for too long! And, to not start an email list sooner!
How do I organize my email list? Convertkit does it for me!
Does the sound of creating an email list and managing it make you want to quit right now? I can completely understand. I tend to get way to bogged down in the details! I've tried everything, from pen and paper, down to fancy systems. I was desperate to find something that was simple. It wasn't until I found a system that worked that I finally am able to quickly organize and analyze my email list! Convertkit has been incredible in helping me to organize (and GROW!) my email list as well as analyze what my readers are responding to!

The Aviation Museum is located in the southwest of Washington, not far from the Parliament Building. It is free of charge. It displays a lot of valuable aeronautical equipment and some imitation models, including rockets, airplanes, spaceships and so on. It is a microcosm of American aviation and even world aviation history. Museum interactive content is also very rich, there are touchable objects, virtual flight deck, and dynamic 4D movies, all deepen the experience. It is recommended to visit for at least 3 hours. Except for the 4-day movie fee, all are free. In addition, McDonald's is very crowded. If the visit time is limited, it is not recommended to eat in it. It's basically a model, and the knowledge is very basic. Even the specific values of the first two or three cosmic speeds are not written out (I'm asking too much). As a kid, science popularization is excellent, but for those who want to see it, they still go to the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio (which has only a physical exhibition of B2 bombers, and the Wright brothers). It would be better to go to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, as the tour guide brother of the American soldier himself said in the Pentagon. And there are too many people in the restaurant who have bad breathing, and the restaurant only has McDonald's and Boston. I really don't want to eat fast food.
In 1903, the Wright brothers invented the first aircraft, the space shuttle, the International Space Station, the engine nozzle of the giant Saturn V rocket, the docking Apollo, the Alliance Flyer, the elegant Tomahawk Cruise Missile, the famous U-2 spy plane, the F-104 Star fighter belonging to NASA, the hypersonic X-15 rocket plane, the Predator UAV, the Dark Star UAV and so on. These well-known artifacts only appeared in radio and television, which are available in this place. Not only do they have, but they can also feel them from zero distance.
The National Aerospace Museum of the United States is the world's leading museum dedicated to flight. There are 24 exhibition halls, 18,000 square meters of exhibition area. It exhibits all kinds of aircraft, rockets, missiles, spaceships, and objects used by famous pilots and astronauts which are of great significance in flight history. Everyone can see it at close range. Such a precious exhibit is very rare and shocking.
The 24 exhibition halls of the National Museum of Aeronautics and Astronautics have a total area of 18,000 square meters. Each exhibition hall displays all kinds of aircraft, rockets, missiles, spacecraft, and objects used by famous pilots and astronauts which are of great significance in flight history. Except for the huge size of the model, most of the exhibits are precious or spare objects. There is no "Do Not Hand" sign on the exhibits in the museum. The audience can operate by themselves and shoot the exhibits at will. Today I went to the National Air Force Museum. From the invention of the plane by the White brothers in 1908 to the Air Force One and the Space Shuttle, there is a complete range. Feed one's sight on.
To Washington, the children named the museum they were going to. It is suggested that we should make some strategies before going, otherwise we should take a look at the flowers. The whole history of aerospace can be understood, which is very suitable for children's science popularization. The stadium is divided by time: flying objects, children's hall, aerodynamic pilot No. 1, Shenniu brothers Fokker T-2, cross-continental flying milestone a) Mustang P-51D, known as the most powerful fighter in World War II, mainly in the battlefield of Asia and Europe, plays an important role in the victory of China's battlefield b) Bell X-1, the first supersonic aircraft c) Spirit of St. Louis, the first. I find it ironic that many people sacrificed their children to enter the pavilion on this prize-winning flight and excitedly asked for a picture of the V2 rocket at the end of the pavilion. For Germany, for the former Soviet Union, for the use of V2 in the post-war and aviation competitions of the United States, it also fully demonstrates that science and technology are a double-edged sword. Star 5 tail engine space workstation, laboratory. One small step for someone, one giant step for humans, Gemini IV, Mars Rover Curiosity
The National Air and Space Museum, the largest flying Museum in the world, receives 10 million visitors a year. It serves very well. It has a map in Chinese and has seen all the important exhibits I ever knew. Including: the first human aircraft: 1903 Wright brothers aircraft Apollo 11 command module space station laboratory Apollo lunar module Boeing 747 nose human first aircraft Emilia and her LOCKHEED aircraft: in 1932 she drove the aircraft across the Atlantic alone, and later drove the aircraft across the United States without stopping alone, these two Xiang Du set the women's world record at that time. The F-1 engine on the Saturn-5 rocket used by the US Apollo program, the American Apollo spacecraft and the Soviet Union spacecraft docking model, touched the rocks from the moon, which were collected by astronauts aboard the Apollo-17-quot spacecraft in December 1972. It is extremely hard and scientists believe it has been at least four billion years. Except for the huge size of the model, most of the exhibits are precious or spare objects. In the field of exploring infinite space, the United States is far ahead of other countries... This museum is an example. And the United States is at the forefront, which is inseparable from the high-level science popularization function of museums. The Aerospace Museum is one of the most popular museums in Washington. It receives 10 million people a year. The crowding scene, suspected to return to the country. Half of the crowds are small friends from the United States. I can see all the foggy water. What can these little ones understand? Especially those babies who seem to be pushed in and carried in under two years old. These American parents led their little friends to engage in all kinds of interactions and enjoyed themselves very much. About flight, about the universe, they have the most vivid impression here, buried the seeds of exploration. This is the national science popularization in the United States, free and fun. Practical tips: (1) love science and technology, it is recommended to take 3 hours; if I do not understand the lively, it is recommended to take 2 hours; (2) the Aviation Museum is affiliated to the Smithsonian Museum Society. The Smithsonian Institution's museums provide free WIFI, which is the Smithsonian Institution's unified WiFi signal. (3) Free, front desk with Chinese maps, go to ask for them.
In so many museums in Washington, it is said that this museum is worth visiting, mainly to show the strength of space and Aeronautics in the United States, so there is a lunar landing machine as soon as it goes in, and then there are many real models of aircraft in it. The most important thing is free access, cost-effective, pause is relatively large, if you are interested, you can also play on the many simulation experience machines here. The closure time will be a little later than that of the opposite art museum.
You can't miss it if you like space. that's one of my favour museums in Washington DC. it's free and good for family trip if you have a kid. :)
The American Aerospace Museum is the largest Aerospace Museum in the world, which records the birth and development of aerospace. One of the exhibition halls tells the story of the legendary flying god, the Red Baron, commander of the German Air Force during World War I. There's a copy of the plane, his uniform photo. At that time, as long as he lifted off, the two sides stopped air combat and watched his flight performance. Unfortunately, he was shot down and killed by French soldiers on the ground.
The National Aerospace Museum of the United States, located on the south side of Washington National Square, is very large with 24 exhibition halls. They are classified as : aircraft, space probes, missiles, aerospace research, planetary science, earth science, historical science, etc. The most attractive is the "Flyer 1" and Apollo 11's first lunar landing module "Columbia". People are scrambling to take photos with the lunar landing module, but they are all authentic, how rare. It's possible to have a party here.

us for those volumes to republish also, in so worthy a style, these Lectures on Ancient Philosophy. The Sermons had at once, in England, an extensive circulation, and won exalted praise as the productions of a mind singularly brilliant and philosophic, learned and devout. We are confident that they will be read more and more as they become better known ; for we are acquainted with no discourses in the English tongue — and we speak of past productions as well as present — that are better adapted to satisfy those who have meditated much and deeply on their relations to God and to their fellow men, and the mysteries of the Christian faith. The spirit and manner of this preacher, with which we are scarcely less struck than with his thoughts, are what we believe can come only of the grace of God when superadded to the most exquisite human culture; and are the same as we observe in Mr. Hobart Seymour in his Evenings with the polished Jesuit in Rome, and in his Mornings with the rude partisan in Ireland - a union of humility, courtesy, and power. Mr. Butler was born at Annerville, near Clonmel, Ireland. His father was a member of the church of England; but, in accordance with the wishes of his mother, her son was baptized and educated in the Romish faith. When nine years old, he was removed from his home to the endowed school of Clonmel and the charge of a distinguished teacher. During his pupilage here, when oppressed with a sense of his sinfulness, he attended the confessional for relief; but the treatment of his sacred feelings by the unsympathizing confessor shocked him, and that day he began to doubt. Ile then examined the controversy for himself, and his powerful mind soon found and trusted in the truth. Two years after this event, he proceeded to Trinity College, Dublin, where he signalized himself in his literary studies, and obtained his scholarship in 1832. At about this period Dublin set the example, since so worthily followed by the University of Cambridge, of giving Ethics an honorable place on the list of subjects for the examinations for degrees. In November, 1834, the first examination for the Prize for proficiency in this study, instituted by Provost Lloyd, was held, and Mr. Butler's name now stands first on the list of successful aspirants. In 1837, through the strenuous efforts of the noble Provost, a Professorship of Moral Philosophy was wisely created to secure to the College the service of the splendid talents of Mr. Butler. It was in the discharge of the duties of this office that these Lectures on Philosophy were prepared ; and it was in the midst of his Academic and Parochial labors - he having been presented to two parishes by the Board of Trinity College — that his death took place, in human judgment so premature, in 1848, when he had reached only the thirty-fourth year of his life. He made a profound impression in Ireland, both as a lecturer in the University and as a preacher, and was always heard with the greatest eagerness. Such was the opinion entertained of him in England, that Cambridge, in her admiration of genius, casting aside all jealousy of her rival, undertook the illustrious task of editing and publishing his works. The present volumes were prepared for the press by the Regius Professor of Greek; and it was done, he states, in the hope of stimulating the interest in the study of Philosophy in England; and, he adds, that though Mr. Butler was personally unknown to him, his masterly Letters on Development1 had led him to rank Professor Butler among the most gifted spirits of his generation. The same letters received a very high commendation from the learned bishop Thirlwall; and of the Lectures embraced in these volumes, the late Sir William Hamilton said they had great scientific value, and that he was gratified to find so important a subject treated with so much learning and acuteness. In England, the First Series of the Sermons have already passed to the fourth edition, and the Second Series to the second.
These volumes on Philosophy first appeared about two years since, and comprise Seven Introductory Lectures on the Science of Mind; a First Series, on Ancient and Modern Histories of Philosophy, on the Indian and the early Greek Philosophy, seven in number; a Second Series, nine lectures on Socrates and his followers, the minor sects and Plato; a Third Series, six lectures on Plato ; a Fourth Series, three lectures on the successors of Plato; of a Fifth Series, left unfinished, three lectures on the Psychology of Aristotle. Of all these, the lectures on Plato and the Platonists, which make up nearly the whole of the second volume, the Editor considers as the most important and original, and states that they may be received as a perfectly independent contribution to our knowledge of the great Master of Grecian wisdom; and that of the Dialectic and Physics of Plato they are the only exposition, at once accurate and popular, which is known to him, being more accurate than the French and incomparably more popular than the German treatises on those departments of the Platonic Philosophy. He adds that the author's intimate familiarity with the metaphysical writings of the last century, and especially with the English and Scotch school of Psychologists, has enabled him to illustrate the subtle speculations of which he treats, in a manner calculated to render them more intelligible to the English mind than they can be made by writers trained solely in the technicalities of modern German schools. The author left copious collections in MS., of which he seems to have intended to make use to give greater completeness to his treatment of certain periods; but the lectures, as he bequeathed them to us, constitute a History of the Platonic Philosophy, in its rise, maturity, and decay. The Editor has done his work with judgment and learning. That slight diffusiveness which marks Mr. Butler's brilliant style, Professor Thompson has not attempted to retrench. The references to the original writers, which were mostly wanting in the MS., have been supplied, and notes illustrative, and in some cases corrective, have been subjoined. While Mr. Butler, in transfusing and developing the ideas of Ancient Philosophy, has by an effort of his genius admirably done what mere learning never could have accomplished, these notes of the Editor greatly add to the critical character of the work, and are interesting as enabling us to form some estimate of the schol

arship of the successor of Porson at Cambridge. England has, as yet, done very little for Piato. But the University of Dublin, having previously given us a beautiful and valuable edition of the Phaedo by the hand of Mr. Stanford, has now, to use Mr. Thompson's words, furnished the first or one of the first examples, in recent times, of an upright and intelligent History of Platonism. Apart from these two works, British scholarship bas produced scarcely anything, if we except the Republic, edited by Messrs. Davis and Vaughan, which can be compared with our edition of the Gorgias by President Woolsey, and of the Tenth Book of the Laws by Dr. Tayler Lewis, the excursus to which are an important contribution to metaphysical studies. We have therefore, with much pleasure, just read the announcement that a volume of Plato, containing the Gorgias, Phædrus, and Symposium, is soon to appear in the Bibliotheca Classica, prepared by the accomplished and generous Editor of these Lectures. While that work will be eagerly looked for by the classical scholar, the present volumes will be welcomed by all students and readers of Philosophy, and especially by those who would make or extend an acquaintance with the Philosophy of Plato - that Philosophy which seems to have carried the human mind in certain directions to its utmost limits, and whose defects, in its highest speculations, could be repaired only by the Revelation from God.
10.— Dr. Schmitz's MANUAL OF ANCIENT GEOGRAPHY.' • Tis work is designed as a companion to the Manual of Ancient History, by the same author, which was reproduced in this country two years ago by the publishers of the present volume. This treatise is intended to furnish the student with that amount of Geographical and Ethnological information which he requires in reading the Greek and Latin authors and in studying the history of the nations of Antiquity. It is divided into Four Books, of which the First gives, in some thirty pages, closely printed, an outline of the gradual extension of Geographical knowledge among the nations of ancient times, serving as an introduction to the general subject. We are not acquainted with any other book in our language that contains the curious and valuable information brought together in this portion of the work. The Second Book treats of Europe; the Third, of Asia ; the Fourth, of Africa; the whole presenting a complete survey of Ancient Geography in a very interesting manner, the author not confining himself, as was the custom in the old treatises on this subject, to a dry description of the political
1 A Manual of Ancient Geography. By Dr. Leonhard Schmitz, F. R. S. E., Rector of the High School of Edinburgh, Author of a Manual of Ancient History, etc. With a Map showing the Retreat of the 10,000 Greeks under Xenophon. 12mo. cl. pp. x and 428. Reprinted from the Edinburgh edition. Philadelphia: Blanchard and Lea. 1857.

divisions and an enumeration of the mere names of the natural features of
relating to Ethnology, Mythology, and general Antiquities, wherever he found occasion so to do. It is hardly necessary to add that the Pupil of Niebuhr and Editor of his works, possessed in an eminent degree the qualifications requisite for preparing these two treatises, and that their contents are the fruit of the author's own studies and of the exact researches of the best scholars of Germany, his native country. Our readers will here find many a venerable blunder of our old books corrected, and many of their misty forms dispelled.
Subjoined to the work is a Map showing the route probably taken by the 10,000 Greeks in their return. This Map and the Notes accompanying it, which fill several pages, were contributed by Gen. Monteith, and will be very useful to the student of Xenophon.
No Atlas is prepared expressly for this Geography, but the author refers the student for such a work to Long's Classical Atlas,' which, he says, is in every respect the best and most accurate yet published in Great Britain.
11. — Tue BIBLE AND THE PEOPLE.? In the first place, this book appears objectionable on account of the personalities with which it abounds. It contains no small part of its author's autobiography, scattered throughout the Introduction, the Addenda, and the Notes. The volume is mainly devoted to Mental Science; and the intermixture of so much personal history with so many metaphysical discussions, is at least a violation of the canons of taste.
In the second place, the impression produced by this autobiography is, in some respects, incorrect. For example, those who are acquainted with the theology of Dr. Lyman Beecher, will be slow to believe that he ever adopted the mode of education, or ever sanctioned the mode of religious appeal, which seem to be ascribed to him on pages xvii, xviii, xxiv of the Introduction to this volume.
In the third place, nearly all the historical statements in the book are, at the best, one-sided and incomplete. The history of the " Theological Dogma of a Departed Mental Constitution," is singularly imperfect and wrong. Miss Beecher represents a large class of theologians as believing that Adam and Eve stood as representatives of the human race (pp. 284, 285). The controversialists whom she enumerates as contending for or against this

3 Common Sense applied to Religion, or the Bible and the People. By Catherine Beecher, author of " Letters to the People on Health and Happiness," "Physiology and Calisthenics," " Domestic Economy," " Domestic ReceiptBook," etc. etc. New York: Harper and Brothers, Publishers, Franklin Square. Montreal: Benjamin Dawson. 1857. pp. 358. 12mo. VOL. XV. No. 58.
dogma are Pelagius (p. 297), Augustine (p. 298), Arminius (p. 300). Calvin and Edwards (pp. 302—304), Dr. Edward Beecher (p. 304), the New Haven divines (p. 306), and herself; and after introducing her own views on the subject, she devotes twenty pages to her efforts in the cause of education, etc. She ascribes the prevalence of a belief in a vitiated nature, to the influence of the Councils and Emperors who sustained Augustine (p. 300).
In the fourth place, the volume is often unphilosophical in its development of the causes of phenomena. Thus in chapter xxv, it specifies the following causes of the " wrong action of mind :" first, deficient or erroneous views of doctrine; secondly, false teachings; thirdly, the want of good habits and the early formation of bad ones; fourthly, the bad influence of other minds; fifthly, the want of a ruling purpose to do right. But what is the cause of these causes ? This want of a ruling purpose is the very thing which is to be accounted for.
In the fifth place, the volume contains various representations, the mutual consistency of which needs to be proved. Thus we read, on p. 224, that the mind has a sense of entire inability to obey the laws of the system in which it is placed." " Where is the mother who has not heard the distressed confession, even from the weeping infant, that he was happier in doing right than in doing wrong, that he wished to do well, and yet that he was constantly doing evil ? Where is the parent that has not witnessed, as one little being after another passed on from infancy to youth, and from youth to manhood, the perpetual warfare to sustain good purposes and oftbroken resolutions? And where is the conscious spirit that cannot look back on its whole course of existence as one continued exhibition of a conflict that gives unvarying evidence of this truth? Men feel that it is as impossible for them to be invariably perfect in thought, word, and deed, as it is to rule the winds and waves" (pp. 224, 225). This is called a " fatal inability," and it is said that "in these circumstances it is as impossible for a young mind to commence existence here with perfect obedience to law, and to continue through life in a course of perfect rectitude, as it is for it, by its feeble will, to regulate the winds of heaven, or turn back the tides of the ocean" (pp. 231, 232). Here and elsewhere, the doctrine of a literal and natural inability to do right and to avoid wrong is asserted; but in very many passages, throughout the book, the common doctrine of the natural and literal inability to do right is denied. It is in vain for the author to reply that the sentences just quoted have reference merely to the finiteness of human powers, to their want of absolute perfection, " to actions which, in all the infinite relations of a vast and eternal system of free agents, are fitted to secure the most possible good with the least possible evil. In this relation, so far as we can judge by experience and reason, no finite being ever did or ever can act perfectly from the first to the last of its volitions. In this relation, every human being is certainly, necessarily, and inevitably imperfect in action" (p. 252). Angels have this kind of inability to do right; but they do not "weep" over it, and make such a " distressed

Drawing Pad-pen
shancha replied to gcextreme's topic in General discussionFollow your style. If your art would be more efficiently built as vectors, you must use Illustrator. If it's better executed as pixels, you must use Photoshop. Use Photoshop for pixel manipulation, photo retouching, and digital painting. Imagine it as a canvas. You can draw and make all kinds of great images with it, including cartoons. You have a stylus and a drawing pad like XP-Pen Deco 02 Graphic Drawing Tablet , and you're all set. And there is a wide swath of art that works best if you use BOTH Photoshop and Illustrator, making components in one program and mixing them into the other. For example, it might turn out that your comic art is best started in Illustrator for the ease of shape and pen stroke manipulation when laying down the basic drawing, but finished in Photoshop for best control over shading, painting, effects, and other finishing.

25 Jun Atomo Diagnostics' AtomoRapid™ blood test device selected as finalist at Medical Design Excellence Awards 2014
New York, June 10, 2014 |Atomo Diagnostics' multi-award winning AtomoRapid™ HIV has been selected as a finalist in the In Vitro Diagnostic Products and Systems Category at the 17th Medical Design Excellence Awards (MDEA), held in New York this week. The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony tomorrow night in New York.
The MDEA is the medtech industry's premier design competition committed to searching worldwide for the highest caliber finished medical devices, products, systems, or packaging available on the market.
The AtomoRapid™ blood testing platform can accommodate test strips for a wide variety of conditions from celiac disease, allergy through to infectious diseases such as malaria and HIV.
The device delivers better clinical outcomes for patients and health care providers by enabling simpler, safer and more accurate testing in the field or at home. (See product images here http://atomodiagnostics.com/latest-news/gallery/)
Atomo Diagnostics Founder & CEO John Kelly said: "Our company is delighted to be recognised for its work in developing AtomoRapid™, a revolutionary rapid diagnostic testing platform, and we would like to thank MDEA for selecting us as finalists in these prestigious awards, and our design partner, IDE for its excellent work in helping to bring this technology to market.
Given its ease of use and simplicity, AtomoRapid™ HIV has the ability to materially improve both the uptake and reliability of HIV testing in the community and at home and we are committed to getting the product launched in the US and Europe. AtomoRapid™ HIV is currently available for sale in several African countries from our South Africa office.
One of the 12 industry leader MDEA 214 judges George L. Walls, director of product and market development for ZOLL, said of AtomoRapid™:
"The AtomoRapid™ HIV hits on all cylinders: a real problem creatively and disruptively addressed. Fast, low cost, accurate, and fundamentally changing the use and business model in this important space. It's EPT for HIV. "
The awards program celebrates the achievements of the medical device manufacturers, their suppliers, and the many people behind the scenes—engineers, scientists, designers, and clinicians—who are responsible for the cutting-edge products that are saving lives; improving patient healthcare; and transforming medtech—one innovation at a time
"Clinical performance of standard test kits are proven in the lab, but serious concerns have been raised about in-field performance. This is down to their complex nature, requiring multiple components for the procedure offering resulting in errors, which in turn creates false diagnosis. For a disease such as HIV, this can have significant impact not only on the individual, but the community too," said John Kelly.
The 12 member industry leader judging panel includes:

Hai, I'm back with another Throwback Thursday drawing!!! (I remembered ^^)
This week's drawing is a character from an unknown video game… I drew & painted this during a summer art class. My art teacher at the time was a known Chinese painter supposedly kind of famous in China. He randomly picked a picture from a book and assigned me to draw this character since he knew I was into anime XDD This is a water- color piece and at that time I did not know how to use water-color properly. My teacher taught me how to mix and get the most from the paints. He was actually proud of the result!! (Shocking!!! O.o) It doesn't look the best, but I tried my hardest!! If anyone knows what video game this character comes from, pls. let me know! I'm curious!! I'll be back next week with another drawing! Stay tuned~
Pls. Comment, like, and follow~

Memorial planned Wednesday for 10th anniversary of Woodburn bank bombing
A look back at the Woodburn bombing case and trial.
Members of the public are invited to attend a 10th-anniversary memorial Wednesday honoring the victims the Woodburn bank bombing.
On December 12, 2008, the explosion killed Woodburn Police Capt. Tom Tennant and Oregon State Police Senior Trooper Bill Hakim, gravely injured then-Woodburn Police Chief Scott Russell and injured West Coast Bank employee Laurie Perkett.
Their deaths shocked the Woodburn community and launched a massive investigation and criminal trial.
Bruce Turnidge, and his son, Joshua Turnidge, were later convicted of aggravated murder for plotting the bombing and sentenced to death row.
At noon Wednesday, a memorial event at the Woodburn Memorial Transit Center will mark the anniversary.
MORE:Turnidge case closed, but not forgotten
"This memorial is a way to continue to honor the lives of Captain Tennant and Trooper Hakim, keeping Woodburn's commitment to never forget them or their sacrifice," said Woodburn Police Chief Jim Ferraris. "While the bombing was a tragedy, resulting in loss of life and injury, it galvanized this community, bringing people together and demonstrating strength and resolve that continues on to this day."
The City of Woodburn, Woodburn Police Department and community nonprofit Woodburn Proud are co-sponsoring the memorial.
Reflections and remarks will be delivered by Mayor Kathy Figley, Mayor-Elect Eric Swenson, City Administrator Scott Derickson, Ferraris, Rhonda Judson from Woodburn Proud and Pastor Luis Molina.
The Memorial Transit Center is located on Highway 214 at Evergreen Road, adjacent to Tom Tennant Drive.

Maryland's unemployment rate fell from a terrifying 6.9 percent in November to a faith-restoring 6.7 percent last month. Sure that's an improvement (and to be fair, unemployment was as high as 7.4 percent a few months ago), but that two-tenths of a percent leap was won by local and state government agencies adding 4,600 jobs (while in other areas we lost some, leaving us with a 3,100 net job gain). Really, this minuscule and government-granted relief ought to underscore the bleakness of the situation.
It's like the price of gas. It shoots up to four bucks a gallon and you're miserable. Then it drops ten cents and you're heart sings with joy. You just can't focus on the fact that not too long ago it was $2.24. So everybody try to forget that state unemployment was in the threes just a few years ago.

Constitution U.S.A. with Peter Sagal
LINCOLN, Neb. (April 26, 2013) -- As America recognizes the 225th anniversary of the ratification of the Constitution, NET Television will air "Constitution U.S.A. with Peter Sagal," a four-part series airing Tuesdays in May, beginning May 7, at 8 p.m. CT on NET1/HD.
With 4,418 words and 27 amendments, the Constitution unites us as a nation, but it has also nearly torn us apart. Breathing new life into the traditional civics lesson, Peter Sagal (host of NPR's "Wait, Wait … Don't Tell Me") travels across the country on a Harley Davidson motorcycle to find out how the Constitution works and how it doesn't.
The framers of the Constitution created a strong national government while preserving much of the power and independence of the states. This delicate balance of power has served America for more than two centuries, but it has also led to tensions and still sparks controversy.
In "Constitution U.S.A. with Peter Sagal," Sagal introduces some major constitutional debates and talks with ordinary Americans and leading constitutional experts about what the Constitution actually says and what it means, the dramatic historical events and crises that have defined it, and why all this matters. He also examines the Bill of Rights, the 14th Amendment that guarantees equality, the systems that have kept the Constitution healthy, and the political forces that threaten to undermine the framers' vision.
With style and humor, "Constitution U.S.A. with Peter Sagal,"uses an innovative visual approach, combining top-line animation and graphics with archival footage from television and movies to bring to life both the history and the actual text of the Constitution.
NET1/HD is part of NET Television, a service of NET. For more information about NET programming, go to netNebraska.org and click on television.
